See Israel's Largest Menorah! ✡ "He Has Done Gloriously"

Sing unto the Lord; for He has done gloriously; this is made known in all the earth. ISAIAH (12:5)   זַמְּרוּ יְ-הוָה, כִּי גֵאוּת עָשָׂה מידעת (מוּדַעַת) זֹאת בְּכָל אָרֶץ יְשַׁעְיָהוּ יב:ה za-m'-ru a-do-nai kee gay-ut a-sa mu-da-at zot b'-khol ha-a-retz

Today's Israel Inspiration An ancient Jewish tradition states that after the miraculous deliverance of Judah from the Assyrian invasion, God desired to crown the righteous King Hezekiah as the Messiah. Only one thing was required – that Hezekiah would sing a song of praise before Him. Instead, Hezekiah arose that morning, and continued with his regular daily routine, the study of the Torah, until Isaiah instructed him to sing. Unfortunately, once the singing was a response to a command, and not spontaneous, the opportunity was lost. In this verse, Isaiah teaches the importance of appreciating everything that occurs for us, and being able to sing praise for it before God. Just as we are encouraged to appreciate our blessings, Karmey Chesed ("Vineyards of Kindness") remembers those in need throughout Israel, supplying food and warm clothing all winter.   Bring a blessing to the poor of Israel this holiday season » It Begins With A Spark "It begins with a spark, a desire to make the world a better place," as volunteers repair used furniture and appliances otherwise destined for landfills, to brighten the homes of Jerusalem's elderly and disabled residents.   Watch here » Giving Back this Holiday Season “I also went through some hard times, and I know what it is like, most of us do.
