For the most part, I didn’t care much for Borderline but I did appreciate the way the film used today’s song of the day.
(Needless to say, this song was always used to brilliant effect in Martin Scorsese’s Goodfellas.)

It’s the month of Elul. The King’s in the Field – an old Hassidic idea. Jews come and stand before an opened Sefer Torah and cry the 13 middot revelation of the Oral Torah at Horev to express our t’shuva!

4th Oral Torah middah רחום, learns from the בניני אבות-precedents commandments 1. to obliterate all people of Canaan 2. the stubborn and rebellious child, 3. the eternal war upon Amalek. The tohor middah of רחום pleads that HaShem distinguish between the תורה ברית which separated ברכה מן ארור. All like vs death henges upon this most basic distinction! Its Ellul now. Jews open up the Sefer Torah and cry out the 13 Oral Torah Middot, to remember the sin of the Golden Calf as our תשובה על יום הזכרון!!!! Tough תשובה if a Jew can’t separate and discern רחום from חנון!
