Here is an interesting tidbit you might not have known: the ‘honey’ that Israel is blessed with does not refer to bee’s honey, but according to Jewish tradition, refers to date honey which was a rich delicacy in Biblical times. From hardly growing any food 100 years ago, miraculously, Israel today is an agricultural exporter and in fact, produces over 50% of the world’s Medjool dates. For the first time in centuries, it is truly the land flowing with milk and honey! A fascinating new book, "The Seven Fruits of the Land of Israel," traces the biblical Seven Species from Biblical times until modern day, and delves deeply into their mystical and medicinal properties, while offering pages of wholesome recipes for each.

As we are now in the biblical Sabbatical year of rest for the Land, this begs the question - how can we celebrate the New Year for the Trees if we cannot actually do anything with the trees this year? Find out here.

The Bible refers to the land of Israel as a 'Land flowing with milk and honey' (Exodus 3:17). Bring a bit of Israel home with this authentic and delicious Israel honey.

Yesterday's photo featured Jerusalem’s Old City walls. The walls and its 8 gates were built in 1538 by the Turkish Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. Suleiman mistakenly excluded an important site: the City of David and David's Palace were later discovered close to, but not within, the Sultan's walls.

| Dear Rabbi Tuly and Team, I want to share that I am enjoying the Israel Bible virtual classroom. I read the weekly portions in both English and Hebrew and this is really enhancing my learning of Hebrew. In the classroom (also daily Israel365 email) there was a reference link regarding the 10 Commandments (10 matters, 10 things, 10 words) by Pastor Keith Johnson. Today I listened to the first 4 commandments. Pastor Johnson's insight and explanation of the these 10 words of the Lord is wonderful and an added blessing is the Hebrew pronunciation and Hebrew lessons he provides when discussing the commandments. Though a bit technical for the uninitiated, I look forward to the next six and hope that I might take the words of the Lord deeper into my heart. Shalom, Ken in Michigan |
