Be'er Sheva in the Bible and Today ✡ "Avraham Planted A Tamarisk At Be’er Sheva" - Israel365

Avraham planted a tamarisk at Be’er Sheva, and invoked there the name of Hashem, the Everlasting God
Genesis 21:33 (The Israel Bible™)

וַיִּטַּע אֶשֶׁל בִּבְאֵר שָׁבַע וַיִּקְרָא־שָׁם בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה אֵל עוֹלָם
Hear the verse in Hebrew

Be'er Sheva in the Bible and Today

Be'er Sheva is one of the first cities in the Land of Israel mentioned in the Torah (Bible). The name Be’er Sheva (באר שבע), is made up of two Hebrew words.  Be’er (באר) means ‘well', and the second part of the word is made up of the root sheva ש-ב-ע, which means both ‘seven’ and ‘oath'. Thus, Be’er Sheva can mean either ‘well of the seven’ or ‘well of the oath.’ Modern day Be'er Sheva is a thriving city and home to a diverse community of Israelis. The Ethiopian schoolgirls pictured above are harvesting crops from a field in one of Be'er Sheva's many agricultural areas.

If Not Now, When? ✡ "Rescue the Poor" - ISRAEL365

He planted an eshel tree in Be'er Sheva, and there
he proclaimed in the Name of the Lord,
God of the Universe.

וַיִּטַּע אֶשֶׁל בִּבְאֵר שָׁבַע וַיִּקְרָא שָׁם בְּשֵׁם יְ-הוָה אֵל עוֹלָם

Today's Israel Inspiration

Today we gain beautiful insight into Abraham's generous ways. The "eshel" was a fruit tree that Abraham planted to serve fruits to his guests. Our Sages go even deeper and say that "eshel" is an acronym for three Hebrew words: eating (אכילה: a-khee-la), drinking (שתיה: sh'tee-ya) and escorting (לויה: levaya), the three types of hospitality that Abraham was famous for offering to his guests. Colel Chabad, Israel's oldest charitable organization, follows in the footsteps of Abraham by helping Israel's neediest people- widows and orphans, the sick and elderly, poor immigrants, and hospitalized children.

5,000 Years of Visitors at Israel’s Door

A must-see this humorous take on Israel’s colorful history of invaders, occupiers and, finally, freedom! Everyone wants to be in the Land of Israel!

Colel Chabad: Bringing Love to Those Who Need it Most

Every day, Colel Chabad helps feed approximately 2,000 Holocaust survivors living in Israel along with an additional 2,000 needy Israeli citizens through their wide reaching services.

Today's Israel Photo

The two prominent symbols in today's photo- the Israeli flag and the Tower of David- have in common that they both represent the kindness of God Who gave the Jewish people an ancient homeland and thousands of years later renewed the gift with a modern return to the state of Israel.

Be’er Sova, which has been operating for 15 years in the southern city of Be’er Sheva, provides food for people who are in need. For the upcoming High Holidays, Be’er Sova has set their sight on distributing 600 family food packages to the surrounding community.
 

Jerusalem Gardens & Abraham's Tree

More than 10,000 species of plants can be found at the Jerusalem Botanical Gardens, where guests can wander along a Bible Path and learn about the tree planted by Abraham, and other greenery mentioned in the Bible.
 

Top Goal: Rosh Hashana Meals for All

One Israeli organization has set out on an ambitious goal to ensure that families can celebrate Rosh Hashana in dignity, and has set its sight on distributing 600 family food packages to the southern community of Be'er Sheva.
 

Shabbat Shalom Book

Get inspired each week by the Torah portion with this book by Sondra Oster Baras, who has been teaching Scripture to Christians from a Jewish point of view for over a decade. Edited by Rabbi Tuly Weisz, with beautiful photographs of the heart of Biblical Israel.

Today's Israel Photo

Rebecca Kowalsky's photo of "Abraham's Tent" in Genesis Land, a park situated in the heart of the Judean desert. Visitors experience life as it was in biblical times, and are greeted by Eliezer, Abraham's servant, and by a train of camels which lead them down to Abraham's tent for a taste of his legendary hospitality.
