Every City Has Biblical Significance ✡ "All of Israel to Mount Carmel"

And now, send and gather for me all of Israel to Mount Carmel.

I KINGS (18:19)
 

וְעַתָּה שְׁלַח קְבֹץ אֵלַי אֶת כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל הַר הַכַּרְמֶל

מלכים א יח:יט

v'-a-ta sh'-lakh k'-votz ay-lai et kol yis-ra-ayl el har ha-kar-mel

Jerusalem Inspiration

We know  that the city of Jerusalem exudes holiness, but virtually every city in Israel has biblical significance. Haifa is not just an important northern city of Israel, with a glorious setting on the slopes of Mount Carmel, but it was the site of a major Biblical event. The Book of Kings describes the prophet Elijah ascending Mount Carmel to challenge the pagan gods. It was here that Elijah successfully discredited them and thus returned the hearts of the people to the Almighty. Haifa’s name hints to its magical setting, stemming from the words “hof” (beach) and “yaffa” (beautiful).  Yaffa is a popular Hebrew girls name, and it is especially fitting for the summer months!
 

Great Tour of Haifa

Along with its natural beauty of sea and mountain, Haifa is also rich in diversity and peaceful co-existence among all three major world religions! Check it out in this fascinating tour video.

Will Man or God Bring Down the Third Temple

Efforts are underway to make the Third Jewish Temple a reality.  The role that man will play in this Messianic event  is a source of controversy.

Personalized Name Scroll

This personalized name scroll is extremely special and one-of-a-kind. A professional scribe will custom-make a beautiful scroll for you by writing your name in Hebrew in authentic, Biblical Hebrew calligraphy- the same calligraphy which is used to write holy Torah (Bible) scrolls. The scroll also includes the value of your Hebrew name in gematria, the spiritual Kabbalistic method of numerology.The name is written to order with a quill pen and scribe’s ink on a vellum sheet of goatskin or calfskin parchment.   Just tell us your English name and we’ll find the Hebrew name in the Bible that’s most closely connected to yours.
