Found in Ezekiel's Tomb ✡ "Ezekiel the Priest, the Son of Buzi"

The word of the Lord came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the Lord was there upon him. EZEKIEL (1:3)   הָיֹה הָיָה דְבַר יְ-הוָה אֶל יְחֶזְקֵאל בֶּן-בּוּזִי הַכֹּהֵן בְּאֶרֶץ כַּשְׂדִּים--עַל נְהַר כְּבָר וַתְּהִי עָלָיו שָׁם יַד יְ-הוָה יחזקאל א:ג ha-yo ha-ya d'-var a-do-nai el y'-khez-kayl ben bu-zee ha-ko-hayn b'-e-retz kas-deem al n'-har k'-var va-t'-hee a-lav sham yad a-do-nai

Today's Israel Inspiration The prophet Ezekiel was buried outside the Land of Israel, in Iraq, during the first exile. In an incredible discovery, a pair of tefillin was found buried with him. On the wall above his tomb remain the Hebrew words: "This is the monument of our master Ezekiel the Prophet son of Buzi the priest, may his merit defend us and all Israel. Amen." May the merit of our prophets and the fulfillment of the biblical command to don tefillin continue to protect the nation of Israel. In India today, Jews are reconnecting and learning about this important commandment. Help them fulfill the mitzvah!   Sponsor a pair of tefillin for a Jewish boy in India »  The Tefillin Booth This short animated film presents all the steps to "bind them as a sign upon your arm" (Exodus 13:16, Deut. 6:8).   Watch here » More Snubs by Obama Apparently, refusing to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his upcoming visit to Washington to speak before Congress is not a strong enough expression of discontent.   Read more » Wood Purim Grogger In Jewish communities around the world, the Grogger is used during public readings of the Book of Esther to make noise when the Haman’s name is read in order to fulfill the Biblical mandate of “wiping out” his memory and the memory of Amalek for all generations.

Today's Israel Inspiration The erudite Jewish commentator Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki, known as Rashi, tells us that God in fact knew where Adam was.  He asked him where he was to open a dialogue.  Throughout our lives God calls to us and it is up to us to answer the call and respond with dialogue.  When the land and people of Israel are under attack, we are being asked "where are you."  We must always have Israel in our minds and hearts, and answer the call with love an support.  Adi watches are designed with images of Israel and Biblical symbols to help keep the holy land at the forefront of our thoughts.   Answer the call with an Adi watch » Tens of Thousands Visit Holy City of Hebron Join in the joy of the tens of thousands of Jews that visited Hebron over Sukkot by watching this concert video!   Watch here » Israel Treats Daughter of Hamas Leader The daughter of Hamas’s top leader is confirmed to have been treated in an Israeli hospital, weeks after the conclusion of a 50-day war between Israel and the Gaza-based terror group.   Read more » Israel Map Watch Adi is the largest and most experienced watch manufacturer in Israel, and their timepieces are found in hundreds of stores all over the country.  This watch features a beautiful outline of the map of Israel with Jerusalem at the center of the watch so that you can remember Jerusalem at all times.
