Balancing How Much Make-Up & Jewelry (?)
via the Kedusha of Shabbat, Jerusalem & the Family
Rav Kook deals here with the eternal question: how much make-up & jewelry is good, and how much is too much. What is the difference between being attractive or "attracting"? Rav Kook innovatively answers through the Talmud's recounting the story of R. Akiva buying a "Jerusalem of Gold" ornament for his beloved wife Rachel, exemplifying their unique & loving relationship (as well as his unique biography & Torah), together with our relationship to Jerusalem, as well as the rabbinical decree that one cannot wear that jewelry in the public domain on Shabbat. This classing paragraph touches upon many topics in Rav Kook's thought on.

What was King Solomon's Mistake? Truth must be 100% Clarified
Ayn Aya Shabbat v, 71
Rav Kook deals with the basic difference between emotion (which sometimes must be overcome) as opposed to intellect and truth, which must always be clarified, for there is no such thing as 99% true! Accordingly, he suggests an innovative explanation as to what caused King Solomon to sin, and the great challenge in running a Jewish State.

The Expanse of Unity
Sometimes division seems good and constructive. But already at the very start of the creation of the world, the Sages of the Land of Israel impart to us that division is extremely undesirable.

From Kriat Yam Suf to Yom Ha'atzma'ut
In these days after the seventh day of Pesach and around the time of the declaration of the State, we will try to explain the connection between two national historical events – “Brit Bein Hab’tarim” (covenant with Avram) and Kriat Yam Suf (splitting of the sea). David Hamelech describes Kriat Yam Suf in Hallel Hagadol as “to cut (gozer) the sea into strips (gezarim), forever is His kindness” (Tehillim 136:13). The use of the word “gozer” brings us to a new understanding of that event. The root of the splitting of the sea starts at the historical event of Brit Bein Hab’tarim. There the Torah used the word “Bein Hagezarim” (Bereishit 15:17) to describe the covenant with Avram.
