"It Spreads Its Wings" ✡ Northern Israeli Birds and a Lesson in Kindness

As an eagle awakens its nest, hovering over its fledglings, it spreads its wings, taking them and carrying them on its pinions.  [So] the Lord guided them alone.

DEUTERONOMY (32:11,12)
 

כְּנֶשֶׁר יָעִיר קִנּוֹ עַל גּוֹזָלָיו יְרַחֵף יִפְרֹשׂ כְּנָפָיו יִקָּחֵהוּ יִשָּׂאֵהוּ עַל אֶבְרָתוֹ  יְ-הֹוָה בָּדָד יַנְחֶנּוּ

דברים לב:יא, יב


k'-ne-sher ya-eer ki-no al go-za-lav y'-ra-khayf yif-ros k'-na-fav yi-ka-khay hu yi-sa-ay-hu al ev-ra-to a-do-nai ba-dad yan-khe-nu

Today's Israel Inspiration

The Bible tells us that a certain bird called a chassidah (a stork) is not kosher, and commentators intuit the reason: it is cruel to birds of other species. Yet if we look more closely, the bird's name "chassidah" comes from the Hebrew word "chessed" which means kindness! This bird does indeed display kindness toward its own species by sharing food. But the Bible wants us to learn that the kosher form of "chessed" is to bestow kindness equally on all people, regardless of how similar they are to us. Israel's national blood bank saves the lives of Jews, Christians and Arabs throughout Israel, without regard to race or religion.

Hi, My name is Richard Harrison. My wife, Sue and I are Christians and we love the Jewish people. We keep them in our prayers and pray that God Almighty will give them victory over all their enemies. Israel is the oly democratic country in the Middle East. God has promised to bless the Jewish people.

My love for Israel grows every day as I pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Israel. I pray also for the redemption of all Jews dispersed over the world and those who live in Israel. Thank you for Israel365, Maurice Gaudreau
Shalom,
