Torah perspective
Justice delayed may seem like justice denied, but this week's arrest proves otherwise. Three weeks after Sergeant Netanel Ayala was taken from his people on Route 60, the wheels turned and the suspect was found hiding in the village where he fled. The Torah commands us to pursue justice, not merely wait for it. The soldiers of Duvdevan who raided Al-Lubban ash-Sharqiya acted as agents of that command, refusing to let blood cry out unanswered. Every soul of Israel is an entire world. When one world is shattered, pursuing justice becomes an act of sanctifying God's name.
