Come Celebrate Jerusalem’s Jubilee With Israel365 and Hayovel in Israel ✡ "Hallow the Fiftieth Year" - ISRAEL365

And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

וְקִדַּשְׁתֶּם אֵת שְׁנַת הַחֲמִשִּׁים שָׁנָה וּקְרָאתֶם דְּרוֹר בָּאָרֶץ לְכָל יֹשְׁבֶיהָ יוֹבֵל הִוא תִּהְיֶה לָכֶם וְשַׁבְתֶּם אִישׁ אֶל אֲחֻזָּתוֹ וְאִישׁ אֶל מִשְׁפַּחְתּוֹ תָּשֻׁבוּ

ויקרא כה:י

Today's Israel Inspiration

We learn in today's verse of the significance of the jubilee (50th) year. Every seven cycles of seven years, God commanded that on the 50th year, the Land of Israel, the Jewish people and all the farming animals be allowed to rest from their work and take the time to rejoice over Hashem and the Torah. This year, we are celebrating a very special anniversary in the history of Jerusalem: 50 years since the reunification of Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria after the IDF reconquered the Land in 1967. To celebrate this momentous occasion, Israel365 and HaYovel invite you for a 2 week experience to celebrate the miraculous liberation of Israel’s heartland. This unique and very affordable educational journey will introduce you to the Land and the People of Israel on the once in a lifetime occasion of Jerusalem’s Jubilee.

Will You "Take Up the Call"?

Be inspired by the stories of men who have stood on the mountains of Israel, through the warm summer months and the harsh winters. Won't you join us in restoring the Land of Israel?

Today's Israel Photo

The staff and volunteers at HaYovel in Har Bracha (Mount of Blessings) just outside of Jerusalem spend endless hours toiling the soil of the Holy Land in order to restore the beauty of Israel and fulfill Biblical prophecy.

We apologize for the error in the translation for yesterday's verse. It should have read "And the chiefs of Yehudah shall say in their heart: ‘The inhabitants of Yerushalayim are my strength through Hashem of hosts their God.’"

“Precious Word of God”

It’s great to hear from you and make new friends from all over the world. Please send me an email and let me know how you are enjoying Israel365 (don’t forget to say where you are from!).


My heart has always been in Israel but my mind has not caught up to my heart, dreamed of coming to the city of Jerusalem but have never been able to get there for financial reasons. I have had my eyes opened by the things I have learned from the Jewish perspective of the Word of God which man has turned upside down in the USA.  Taking God out of everything only increases hate and envy,strife, killings, and the like.  But my eyes are not on the things of this world but the glory of the New World to come. Thank you so much for your enlightenment of the precious word of God. Please keep sending me your opening of the Word up. May God Bless Israel. -Sincerely Gary Gamble Big Spring, Texas
Shalom,

One Grape at a Time

Volunteers Fulfill Prophecy, One Grape at a Time

JERUSALEM, Israel - Hundreds of Christians travel to Israel each year to help farmers harvest crops. This additional help is not only appreciated, it also fulfills Bible prophecy.
A volunteer Christian group called Hayovel, which means Jubilee in Hebrew, provides volunteers to help Israeli farmers bring in the grape harvest.
"We're a group of Christian volunteers from America and from Canada and from all over the world," David Johnson, a Hayovel, volunteer explained.
"We've come to help the Jewish people, specifically in Samaria and Judea, usually referred to as the West Bank," he continued.
The vineyard is in Ofra, not far from biblical Shiloh. More than 300 volunteers worked 30,000 man hours to bring in nearly 400 tons of grapes across Judea and Samaria during the last three months.
"You get to see the thankfulness on the owners' faces when you help them out," Hannah Pauls, a 15-year-old volunteer, said.
Zach Waller directs Hayovel. His parents came up with the idea as a way to serve Israel about nine years ago.
They hoped actions would speak louder than words to help repair relations between Jews and Christians caused by 2,000 years of persecution.
"Dad said, 'Hey this is an opportunity that we have as believers in Yeshua, Messiah, that we can come and serve and try to restore this relationship,'" Waller said.
But they discovered they were actually fulfilling Bible prophecy, such as Isaiah 61:5 and Jeremiah 31:5: "You will see nations coming to the land, working in the vines, helping the Jewish people."
Local Jewish resident Aaron Lipkin sees the Christian love as a healing ointment. He said everything that is happening is a big miracle, it's part of a process called redemption.
Team leader David Johnson oversees about 30 volunteers. This year is the third season for he and his wife.
"We have a heart for the Jewish people settling the land of Israel and it's a heart that we've been given by our Messiah and we're here to help them," he said.
They work hard. They also worship and declare Scripture.
"We thought, hey, you know, we should set up some kind of prayer shifts so that somebody's praying while they're working," Waller recalled.
"So we sent guys to go pray and we actually ended up picking twice as much that day than normal. And that touched vineyard owner Rafael Kadmon," he said. "I happy very much because when we work, we sing, we see the man is very, very happy."
Rick Pauls said he feels so strongly about the work that he brought his wife and children to pick grapes for a second year.
"We feel very protected by God and by Israeli security," Pauls said. "It's amazing to be here because as you read the scriptures here in this place it just comes alive."
His wife Karen called it an opportunity to give, but she said the biggest impact was just meeting the Jewish people.
"Their faith is absolutely unbelievable. No one has been untouched by something pretty intense in their life, losing someone, and they just believe," she said. "I mean it's not for fame or glory, it's hard. And they just believe in the promises of God."
Her son said the experience for him has been equally as powerful.
"Just being here has blown me away," he said. "Just being able to serve the Jewish people, to enhance His kingdom here on earth."
