Bibi Netanyahu's Birthday - Oct. 21

Israel Photo Trivia ✡ "They Arrived in the Desert of Sinai"

In the third month of the children of Israel's departure from Egypt, on this day they arrived in the desert of Sinai... and Israel encamped there opposite the mountain. EXODUS (19:1-2) בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁלִישִׁי לְצֵאת בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם בַּיּוֹם הַזֶּה בָּאוּ מִדְבַּר סִינָי ...  וַיִּחַן שָׁם יִשְׂרָאֵל נֶגֶד הָהָר שמות יט:א,ב ba-kho-desh ha-sh'-lee-shee l'tzayt b'-nay yis-ra-ayl may-e-retz mitz-rai-yim ba-yom ha-ze ba-u mid-bar see-nai ... va-yi-khan sham yis-ra-ayl ne-ged ha-har

Today's Israel Inspiration Today is the first day of the Hebrew month of Sivan, "the third month" of today's verse. On this special day, the Israelites arrived at Mount Sinai and prepared to receive the Holy Torah. In a beautiful lesson, our verse uses the word "encamped" in the singular form of the verb, to emphasize that the nation was united as one, with one heart, and without strife and contention amongst them. We merit the blessings of the Torah only when peace and harmony prevails amongst us.

Steadfast Like Zion ✡ "Will Not Falter"

Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which will not falter but will abide forever. PSALMS (125:1)   הַבֹּטְחִים בַּי-הֹוָה כְּהַר צִיּוֹן לֹא יִמּוֹט לְעוֹלָם יֵשֵׁב תהילים קכה:א ha-bot-kheem ba-a-do-nai k'-har tzee-yon lo yi-mot l'-o-lam yay-shayv

Jerusalem Inspiration In today's verse, King David likens those with unwavering faith to the mountain of Zion. Just as the mountain ranges of Jerusalem stand eternal, unchanging and steadfast, so must we strive to maintain our trust in God and His ways in this world.  There is no better example of unfaltering faith than the Nation's yearnings to return to their homeland for 2,000 long years. Those that merit to live in the holy land maintain strong faith, amidst adversity,  that God will provide. This Passover, Israel365 has chosen to help strengthen the faith of those in need in Israel.
