Hashem asks Am Yisrael to coronate Him in unity. The last letters of the
words are numerically equivalent to (man).
Through unity, the nation attains the form of , and Hashem’s Name

When Bnei Yisrael sinned with the Golden Calf, Hashem told Moshe to
descend from his exalted level. The head cannot exist without the feet.
Moshe descended the mountain and kissed the people, in order to renew
his connection with them. The idea of connecting all strata of society is
also found in the pasuk, “ –The
Torah that Moshe commanded us is the heritage of the congregation of
Israel.” The word (heritage) hints to the (head), and
(Yaakov) hints to the (heel). The words “A ladder was set
earthward and its top reached heavenward” also allude to this connection.

The word (together) is numerically equal to twenty-two, the number
of letters in the Hebrew alphabet, with which the Torah is written. When
the nation is united, they merit understanding Torah concepts. In order to
unite before Hashem on Rosh Hashanah, there must be a spirit of teshuvah

your help, Who is the Sword of your grandeur;
