Take a 'Moment' to Love Your Life! ✡ "Speak Unto B’nei Yisrael" - ISRAEL365

Speak unto B’nei Yisrael, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto Hashem, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock. Leviticus 1:2 (The Israel Bible™)   דַּבֵּר אֶל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם אָדָם כִּי יַקְרִיב מִכֶּם קָרְבָּן לַיהוָה מִן הַבְּהֵמָה מִן הַבָּקָר וּמִן הַצֹּאן תַּקְרִיבוּ אֶת קָרְבַּנְכֶם ויקרא א:ב da-BAYR el b’-NAY yis-ra-AYL v’-a-mar-TA a-lay-HEM a-DAM kee yak-REEV mi-KEM kor-BAN la-do-NAI min ha-b’-hay-MAH min ha-ba-KAR u-MIN ha-TZON tak-REE-vu et kor-ban-KHEM

Today's Israel Inspiration The book of Leviticus describes in great detail all of the various offerings that were brought in the Temple. The Hebrew term for offering, ‘korban,’ comes from the Hebrew word ‘karov,’ meaning close, since they are meant to bring people closer to the Eternal One. It is for this reason that the common translation, sacrifice, is insufficient, as it does not accurately portray the essence of the word.  While the person bringing the offering might be giving something from his personal possessions, he gains much more than he gives.  Now that we no longer have sacrifices, it is through prayer that we come close to our Father in Heaven.

This Bible verse is recited during the morning prayer service known as Shacharit. It is therefore customary to wear a prayer shawl during morning prayers. Wearing a prayer shawl is the ideal way to fulfill the commandment of tying fringes as the individual wearing the prayer shawl is completely wrapped in and surrounded by the garment. Watch this video for further instruction on the proper method of donning a Tallit.   Buy Your Prayer Shawl Now! »   Today's Israel Photo Today's photo by Boruch Len shows one of the many beautiful old synagogues of Safed (in Hebrew, Tzfat), dating from the 16th century.
