When you come to the Land,

you shall plant trees.

LEVITICUS (19:23)

וְכִי תָבֹאוּ אֶל

הָאָרֶץ וּנְטַעְתֶּם כָּל עֵץ

ויקרא יט:כג

ve-KHEE ta-voe-OO el ha-ah-RETZ

Today’s Israel Inspiration

You will never read Leviticus 19 the same way ever again…
Are you sitting down for this one? Since the Jews began
returning to the Land, they looked to today’s verse for
inspiration and planted trees.

In fact, since 1901, through the Jewish National Fund,
over 240,000,000 trees have been hand-planted in Israel
- that’s right - planted by people like you and me!

Now is your chance to make a lasting impact on the
Land of Israel by clicking here to plant your tree in Israel
in honor of Tu B’Shevat (the Jewish new
year for the trees).

Today's Israel Photo

While the rest of the world has been cutting down its trees,

Israel is planting forests in the desert! Today’s photo is of the

Yatir Forest, Israel’s largest forest, which sits - miraculously -

on the edge of the Negev Desert.

Yatir is mentioned in

Joshua 21:14. Participate in the miracle and

Plant Your Tree in Israel.
