(The lecture was part of a year-long <em>Tanach b\u2019shana<\/em> program.

As the monarch of over 127 lands, he sent letters to the leaders of these lands written in their own languages and\/or dialects. He could have said, \u201cI\u2019m the new guy in town; let my subjects get translators.\u201d But he didn\u2019t. Instead, he sent his missive out in accessible, comfortable language.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br \/>\n~<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1097 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.creativecommunicationsgroup.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Language.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"288\" height=\"216\" srcset=\"https:\/\/creativecommunicationsgroup.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Language.jpg 288w, https:\/\/creativecommunicationsgroup.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Language-1x1.jpg 1w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/>When you communicate clearly and effectively, in a way that makes the recipients of your messages feel comfortable, you<\/span> <strong><span style=\"color: #006600;\">create an attitude that is receptive to your message<\/span><\/strong>. <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Just food for thought!
