Torah’s words are metaphorized as a lamp whose light protects us from stumbling in the darkness. In making his point, the Psalmist seems guilty of redundancy as he evokes kindred illuminating imagery. What is the difference between “candlelit footsteps” and the “lit up path?” A range of classic commentaries elucidate the precise nature of the song-full scripture, as we conclude with a brilliant commentary of the Rebbe; shedding light on how the Torah illuminates our personal footsteps as well as our universal journey of global transformation! (Psalm 119, verses 105)
