Long ago, if you asked a Jewish mystic about tikkun olam, he might tell you stories – beautiful stories of an inverted tree, suspended between heaven and earth, its roots drawing God’s goodness like sap that flows through the trunk and into the branches that stretch into our world. He might tell you a story of vessels so full of divine light that they burst and spread sparks across the earth. The mystic might say that it is up to each of us to repair the world (tikkun olam) by gathering these sp...

They became heroes through their obedience to God. I’m sure you know the story … Alexander the Great conquered most of the known world but died without an heir, so his massive new empire (which included Judea) was divided among hi...
