Israeli Navy's Underwater Sukkah is a Blast ✡ "You Shall Live in Booths"

For a seven day period you shall live in booths. Every resident among the Israelites shall live in booths

LEVITICUS (23:42)

בַּסֻּכֹּת תֵּשְׁבוּ שִׁבְעַת יָמִים כָּל הָאֶזְרָח בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל יֵשְׁבוּ בַּסֻּכֹּת

ויקרא כד:מב


ba-su-kot taysh-vu shiv-at ya-meem kol ha-ez-rakh b'-yis-ra-ayl yash-vu

Today's Israel Inspiration

Listen to the powerful words of the Israeli Army's Chief Rabbi Brig. Gen. Peretz on what Sukkot means for the soldiers: "The IDF’s success in battle and in protecting the State of Israel is not just about physical strength. The sukkah, a flimsy and temporary structure, shows us that our security is entrusted not only to physical means... we know that without help from Above and faith in the justice of our path, we would not succeed." "On every base, unit and post, there is a sukkah," he continues. "It is often a brittle structure, but also full of strength. And you, dear soldiers, provide it with its strength. Sitting together in the sukkah, all of us together as one person with one heart, ready for every mission and every challenge, give the sukkah its festive atmosphere which we longed for and anticipated throughout our long exile." We wish all of Israel's soldiers a safe and happy Sukkot!

Sukkot, IDF-style! All fun aside, the Israel Navy's combat divers go through intense deep water training enabling them to dive up to 100 meters. We thank them for protecting Israel at sea.

Thank You

"You Shall Live in Booths" ✡ Seeking Divine Protection - ISRAEL365

For a seven day period you shall live in booths. Every resident among the Israelites shall live in booths.

LEVITICUS (23:42)
 

בַּסֻּכֹּת תֵּשְׁבוּ שִׁבְעַת יָמִים כָּל הָאֶזְרָח בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל יֵשְׁבוּ בַּסֻּכֹּת

Shabbat Inspiration

In Lieu of the weekly Torah portion, this Shabbat we read from the Book of Leviticus which includes the commandment to celebrate the Holiday of Sukkot. One of the central commandments of the holiday is to construct a sukkah, or booth.  The structure must be temporary and serves as a spiritual reminder that everything in this world is transient and things can change in a moment.
 

Finding Joy in Letting Go of Ourselves

Sometimes, in our attempt to be happy, we focus on ourselves. The holiday of Sukkot teaches us that to be in a state of joy, one must move beyond oneself, and follow not our heads, but our emotional selves.
 

God Protects Israel

Thousands of people attended a pro-Israel rally in front of Washington’s Capitol Hill Sunday. Rally organizer Mike Huckabee offered the resounding message that God protects Israel and the US should too.
 

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

This image, by Yehoshua Halevi, portrays a beautiful sukkah (booth) contructed in Israel for the holiday.  Over Sukkot, Jews dwell in Sukkot and eat and sleep within their protective walls.

Thank you Rabbi Weisz! I really enjoy all your postings about Israel.  I sure wish I was living there...the Jews are special to the Almighty God, and He will always protect them no matter what. God bless Israel and I wish that I could help in any way at all. V.J.
