Today’s verse calls for us to be proactive in giving to others, using a double verb in Hebrew (literally, “you shall open and open your hand”) to tell us to give to others again and again. It's easy to pay lip service to giving charity, but how many of us truly 'open our hands' to the poor? Meir Panim is an Israeli nonprofit bringing blessings to Israeli homes facing poverty with numerous food and social service programs. Enjoy their gift to you of a home blessing with a beautiful, traditional prayer. May this “Blessing for the Home” enhance the blessings in your life as well.

You won't be able to stop yourself from tearing up when you hear about Feige and Felix's decision to make aliyah (immigrate to Israel) at the ages of 90 and 94. Both Holocaust survivors, they are eager to start their new lives in the Holy Land. It's never too late to come home!

The Maccabeats are a popular acapella group composed of Orthodox students (or former students) from Yeshiva University in New York. They broke out of obscurity with their Hanukkah cover of Taio Cruz’s hit song “Dynamite”. Since then they have played events all over the world and have even sung at the White House. Using only their voices, the group is able to produce a uniquely uplifting, joyous sound that excites listeners. Their dynamism and sense of fun breathe new life into the Jewish music scene. 7 songs

Hello, I greatly enjoy the photos and messages from the Holy Scriptures. Thank you so very much. Israel is an incredible country. I would love to visit there, I recently requested information on volunteering in Israel; hopefully I will be able to do this great work for Israel, God's chosen people.
