"Let There Be Light" ✡ Israel's Largest Menorah on the Water! - ISRAEL TODAY

And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. And God saw the light that it was good, and God separated between the light and between the darkness. GENESIS (1:3-4) וַיֹּאמֶר אֱ-לֹהִים יְהִי אוֹר וַיְהִי אוֹר וַיַּרְא אֱ-לֹהִים אֶת הָאוֹר כִּי טוֹב וַיַּבְדֵּל אֱ-לֹהִים בֵּין הָאוֹר וּבֵין הַחשֶׁךְ בְּרֵאשִׁית א:ג,ד va-yo-mer e-lo-heem y'-hee ohr va-y'-hee ohr va-yar e-lo-heem et ha-ohr kee tov va-yav-dayl e-lo-heem bayn ha-ohr u-bayn ha-kho-shekh

Today's Israel Inspiration The days of Chanukah were set aside for greatness and light from the time of Creation. Let's look at the story of Creation in the Bible. Counting from the very first Hebrew word of the Torah ("Bereishit"/"in the beginning"), the 25th word is "ohr"/light, alluding to the light of Chanukah on the 25th day of Kislev! Just as God "saw the light that it was good," and then separated it from darkness, on Chanukah we recall that a little light and hope can dispel the darkness of despair. Meir Panim (lit. "lighting up faces") is brightening the lives of the poor in Israel and giving hope to struggling families and impoverished citizens this Chanukah.

"Fear Not, For I Am With You" ✡ Shabbat Shalom - ISRAEL365

Isaac went up to Beersheba. God appeared to him that night and said, “I am the God of your father Abraham, fear not for I am with you, I will bless you and increase your offspring.” GENESIS (26:23, 24)   וַיַּעַל מִשָּׁם בְּאֵר שָׁבַע וַיֵּרָא אֵלָיו יְ-הוָה בַּלַּיְלָה הַהוּא וַיֹּאמֶר אָנֹכִי אֱ-לֹהֵי אַבְרָהָם אָבִיךָ אַל תִּירָא כִּי אִתְּךָ אָנֹכִי וּבֵרַכְתִּיךָ וְהִרְבֵּיתִי אֶת זַרְעֲךָ בראשית כו:כג,כד v'-ya-al mi-sham b'-ayr sha-va va-yay-ra ay-lav a-do-nai ba-lai-la ha-hu va-yo-mer a-no-khee e-lo-hai av-ra-ham a-vee-kha al tee-ra kee it-kha a-no-khee u-vay-rakh-tee-kha v'-hir-bay-tee et zar-a-kha

Shabbat Inspiration In this week's Shabbat Torah portion (Genesis 25:19-28:9), Isaac followed in his father’s footsteps and returned to the well that his father Abraham had dug. ‘Beersheba’ in Hebrew means the "seventh well" named by Abraham in Genesis. Our Sages derive that Isaac is to be praised for continuing tradition and returning to the well of his father Abraham.
