“Blessed are You, Hashem, our God, Sovereign of the Universe, Who gave the rooster understanding to distinguish between day and night.”

洪磊: Safeguarding the peace and stability of northeast Asia accords with our mutual interests. We hope all sides can maintain restraint; and proceed calmly and cautiously, in order to avoid escalating the tensions.

CCTV.com: China’s expected to topple the U.S. as the biggest movie market as early as 2017, fueled by rapid theater expansion.
Yosef Ben Shlomo Hakohen: Torah teaches that the human being was placed in the Garden of Eden to serve as its caretaker (Genesis 2:15). According to our tradition, this Divine mandate is the prototype for all the mitzvos of the Torah, as the serving of the Garden represents all the mitzvos of action, and the guarding of the Garden represents all the mitzvos which call upon us to refrain from certain actions (Tikunei Zohar 55). 
The responsibility to "serve" the Garden is a prototype for all the mitzvos of the Torah which enable us to nurture and elevate the world – including ourselves. And the Divine call to "preserve" the Garden is a prototype for all the mitzvos of the Torah which prevent us from damaging and degrading the world – including ourselves. 
The first human couple lost the Garden when they became moral relativists. 
As we discussed in this series, the path of the Torah is to lead us back to the Garden, but in order to walk on this path in a dark world, the Torah gives us mitzvos which serve as lamps of the Divine light: (Proverbs 6:23). 
Our tradition therefore encourages us to learn from the example of the rooster, who distinguishes between the light and the darkness. In this way, we can find our way back to the Garden and experience the fulfillment of the following prophecy. (Isaiah 51:3). In the age when Zion will become like the Garden of Hashem, the rest of humanity will be inspired by Zion’s example.
