Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb
Our mistakes, especially our moral errors, need to be rectified. We remove our guilt by correcting our misdeeds. If we think of moral error as a form of sickness, then we need to be cured of our disease, to be healed. Or, if we see our misdeeds as a breaking or shattering of our integrity, then we need to be fixed, repaired, even re-formed. Finally, when we focus on the damage done to others or to our environment, then we talk about making things good or right, even making others whole.
Where does "punishment for immoral acts" fit into all this? Does chastisement as punishment heal or cure us? Is it a price we pay to make things right? Is it a kind of re-formation? Or, perhaps, our pain is connected to the visible signs of remorse that we need to show to others in order to be forgiven by them?
These are not easy questions to answer. What we do know, however, is that "saying sorry" can not be a free ride. The true remorse necessary for rectifying our immoral actions expects that there will be a price to be paid. Given the way that the world is, moral error and its rectification calls forth purgatorial suffering, We really don't like it, but, in all honesty, anything less is superficial and pathetically self-exculpatory. And, of course, once we finish the process, we are liberated; we are reconnected with others. We become free to live better lives.
[Thoughts occasioned by reflection on the Biblical story of Joesph and his brothers.]
