"Return, O Israel" ✡ Very Special Shabbat in Israel

Return, O Israel, unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast stumbled in thine iniquity.

HOSEA (14:2)
 

שׁוּבָה יִשְׂרָאֵל עַד יְ-הֹוָה אֱ-לֹהֶיךָ כִּי כָשַׁלְתָּ בַּעֲו‍ֹנֶךָ

הוֺשֵׁעַ יד:ב


shu-va yis-ra-ayl ad a-do-nai e-lo-he-kha kee kha-shal-ta ba-a-o-ne-kha

Shabbat Inspiration

Falling in between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, this Shabbat has special significance and is known as the “Shabbat of Return” taken from today’s verse in Hosea. An essential part of repentance is that one feel remorse for his past failings and sincerely resolve to improve. During these days between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, we have a heightened opportunity to come closer to God. Support Israel's national blood bank, Heart to Heart, during this blessed time of year.

Four Species Sukkot Set

The Four Species, or "arba'a minim" in Hebrew, are four different plants native to Israel. They are used in an obligatory rite during the Festival of Tabernacles, or Sukkot, which is coming up in just a couple of weeks! The species are held together and shaken in six different directions, east, south, west, north, upward, and downward, in acknowledgment of divine dominion over nature. This year, order your Four Species directly from an Israeli farmer!

Hello Rabbi. Just a quick note to let you know that you are not alone... This is something I do regularly.  Even when I wake up in the middle of the night.  The first thing I do is pray for all of you. I can’t imagine living under those kind of circumstances every day.  It breaks my heart!  I know there are many others that are praying for all of you as well. Blessings, Jeff K, USA

I do enjoy both Israel and Jerusalem365 so very much!  The pictures, the Hebrew, the little commentaries all make reading them worthwhile, enjoyable and uplifting!  I love Israel, the land, the people!  I pray daily for the peace of Jerusalem and ALL Israel, praying many times a day in these troubled times! -Rebecca S.
Shabbat Shalom,
