Passover lamb for all

So they slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the returned exiles, for their fellow priests, and for themselves.

EZRA (6:20)
 

וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ הַפֶּסַח לְכָל בְּנֵי הַגּוֹלָה וְלַאֲחֵיהֶם הַכֹּהֲנִים וְלָהֶם

עֶזְרָא ו:כ


va-yish-kha-TU ha-pe-SAKH li-KHOL b'NAY ha-go-LA vi-la-a-KHAY-hem ha-ko-ha-NEEM vi-la-HEM

Today's Israel Inspiration

Ezra lived at a very exciting time, when Persian King Darius allowed his Jewish subjects to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple. At times, Ezra becomes frustrated that the people are not in fact returning with the proper enthusiasm, yet his righteous leadership brings the nation closer to God, and, among many spiritual accomplishments, the Passover-offering resumes in the rebuilt Temple. Today Israel Returns is assisting scattered Jews as far as Kaifeng, China to come closer to God and the Jewish nation. For the first time in over 200 years, a Passover seder will be held in China! Be part of the miracle and download a Passover Haggadah in time for tonight's Seder!

Hebrew Music Monday

Passover is one of the three pilgrimage festivals when Jews from all over the Land of Israel would ascend to Jerusalem. Close your eyes and imagine it is thousands of years ago, you are on the way to the Temple... Now listen to today’s Hebrew song from the Israeli band “Tzipia” and get inspired!
 

Passover "Made in China" for First Time in 200 Years

Of the ancient Jewish community of Kaifeng, most have dispersed or assimilated with the local population over the last 400 years. But new expressions of Jewish identity are voicing themselves.

“A Wonderful Daily Resource!”

It’s great to hear from so many of you - stay in touch and let us know where in the world you are enjoying Israel365!
 
Israel365 is one of the first things I read each morning. I enjoy the uplifting words, the songs, and the articles. I have been trying to learn Hebrew for a number of years. Although I can follow along with the weekly parshah, it's read too fast to make phonetic connections. Israel365 gives me a short passage to practice reading at my own pace and the transliteration provides a self-checking opportunity for pronunciation. Thank you for this wonderful daily resource!
