בס״ד
Rosh HaShanah
The highest praise we find for him,
That the Torah can bestow,
Is that Avraham Avinu’s eldest son,
Was skilled with arrow and bow.
What is the point in stating this,
So “damning with faint praise”,
And selecting this for emphasis,
On one of our holiest days?
Could this be to encourage us?
For in Judgement, it suggests,
He’ll praise us just like Yishmael,
For every small success.
