God and the Birds ✡ "Let The Mother Go" - Israel365

Let the mother go, and take only the young, in order that you may fare well and have a long life
Deuteronomy 22:7 (The Israel Bible™)

שַׁלֵּחַ תְּשַׁלַּח אֶת־הָאֵם וְאֶת־הַבָּנִים תִּקַּח־לָךְ לְמַעַן יִיטַב לָךְ וְהַאֲרַכְתָּ יָמִים
Hear the verse in Hebrew

sha-LAY-akh t’-sha-LAKH et ha-AYM v’-et ha-ba-NEEM ti-kakh LAKH l’-MA-an YEE-tav LAKH v’-ha-a-rakh-TA ya-MEEM


God and the Birds

The Torah (Bible) talks about the importance of chasing a mother bird from its nest before taking its fledglings. Commentators believe this reflects the state of the Jewish People in exile. The mothers bird who has been chased away cries about the separation from her children. When Hashem (God) hears these cries, he compares the suffering of the mother bird to His own fate. Hashem’s  presence has been driven out of the Beit Hamikdash (Holy Temple), and His children have been driven into exile. The Jewish People must return to their homeland and restore the Beit Hamikdash so that Hashem’s presence can once again dwell in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem).

A Shining Light Could be their Salvation ✡ "The Path of the Sea" - ISRAEL365

Thou shalt send away the mother, but the young thou mayest take unto thyself; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.

שַׁלֵּחַ תְּשַׁלַּח אֶת הָאֵם וְאֶת הַבָּנִים תִּקַּח לָךְ לְמַעַן יִיטַב לָךְ וְהַאֲרַכְתָּ יָמִים

דברים כב:ז

sha-lay-akh ti-sha-lakh et ha-em v'-et ha-ba-nim ti-kakh lakh l'-ma'an yi-tav lakh
v'-ha-ah-rakh-tah ya-mim

Today's Israel Inspiration

The prohibition of taking an egg without first chasing away the mother bird is just one example of how God commands us to behave with sensitivity and compassion. How cruel to take an egg away from its mother in her presence! If this is how we are expected to behave towards animals, how much more so are we required to behave towards each other with care and concern. Colel Chabad, Israel's oldest charity, strives to emulate this special trait by providing nourishment to those who need it most, across the Holy Land.  As the holiday season approaches, the needs expand; please donate generously so that everyone can enjoy the holidays with plenty and satisfaction.

Like a Delicate Bird are We

Close your eyes, imagine you're flying among the clouds over the Land of Israel, touch the sky, and feel like a bird.

Just a Coin a Day

The sages teach that the greatest way to recognize God as Master of the World and elevate one’s soul is through giving tzedakah.
 

Today's Israel Photo

A sanctuary for hundreds of species of birds, the Hula Valley Nature Reserve lies in Northern Israel just below the Lebanon border.  Taking flight as the sun makes its first appearance in the early morning hours, Hula Valley visitors can rest safely in this place of serenity.
