A monument and a name Better than sons or daughters. I will give them an everlasting name Which shall not perish.

וְנָתַתִּי לָהֶם בְּבֵיתִי וּבְחוֹמֹתַי יָד וָשֵׁם טוֹב מִבָּנִים וּמִבָּנוֹת שֵׁם עוֹלָם אֶתֶּן־לוֹ אֲשֶׁר לֹא יִכָּרֵת׃

ישעיהו נַו:ה

Today's Israel Inspiration

Jerusalem’s world-renowned Holocaust museum, Yad Vashem, takes its name from the above Biblical verse. Yeshayahu articulates Hashem’s promise that even those who are unable to have sons and daughters will be memorialized in Yerushalayim by their “everlasting name.” According to its mission statement, the Yad Vashem museum, “safeguards the memory of the past and imparts its meaning for future generations.” Yad Vashem has collected and memorialized the names of over four million Jewish victims of Nazi persecution, and aims to persist until all 6,000,0000 names are recovered. The museum is often a first stop for visitors to the Jewish State, because to appreciate the State of Israel, one must understand the tragedy of the Holocaust. Tens of thousands of elderly Holocaust survivors are currently living in Israel. Many of these survivors are left without family and do not have the necessary means to provide for themselves. This Jewish New Year, warmly embrace these heroes by sending them a personalized gift of tea and honey.

The Holocaust Survivor who Fought in Every Israeli War

During the Holocaust Ze'ev Tibi Ram lost his whole family. He survived Auschwitz, a labour camp, and Bergen-Belsen. After being separated from his mother and eventually finding her at the end of the war, she disappeared and Tibi never saw her again. Now, Tibi gives lectures to soldiers about the holocaust and his extensive military experience.

Rainbow "Swastikas" Pulled from Shelves of Stores

After less than one month on the shelves, a storm of criticism has led KA Design to stop selling its ill-conceived line of clothing emblazoned with a rainbow colored “Swastikas of Peace.”
 

     


What is the meaning of Jerusalem?


The Hebrew name for Jerusalem, ‘Yerushalayim’ (ירושלים), contains the word ‘shalom,’ peace. The root of ‘shalom’ is ‘shalem,’ meaning whole or complete. Why do people fight against others? Because they are not whole or at peace with themselves. Once one is able to make themselves whole, that they can find inner peace, and are more likely to live peacefully with others as well. Throughout history and until this very day, many people come to Jerusalem to find their own inner peace.

"An Everlasting Name" ✡ Alexander the Great and the Jews

I will give them in My house and in My walls a place and a name, better than sons and daughters; an everlasting name I will give him, which will not be discontinued.

ISAIAH (56:5)
 

וְנָתַתִּי לָהֶם בְּבֵיתִי וּבְחוֹמֹתַי יָד וָשֵׁם טוֹב מִבָּנִים וּמִבָּנוֹת שֵׁם עוֹלָם אֶתֶּן לוֹ אֲשֶׁר לֹא יִכָּרֵת

ישעיה נו:ה


v'-na-ta-tee la-hem b'-vay-tee u-v'-kho-mo-tai yad va-shaym tov mi-ba-neem u-mi-ba-not shaym o-lam e-ten lo a-sher lo yi-ka-rayt

Today's Israel Inspiration

Alexander, originally a Greek name, is one of the few names that has origins outside the Jewish faith, but has been made an official Hebrew name and widely adopted by many Jews on account of a fascinating story that occurred over two thousand years ago. During his conquest of the region, Alexander the Great met the High Priest of the Temple in Jerusalem, dismounted from his horse and bowed to the ground. Alexander explained that he had seen the High Priest in a dream who had assured him victory and prosperity. In appreciation to the Jews, Alexander peacefully absorbed the Land of Israel into his growing empire and the Jewish community responded by naming all baby boys born that year Alexander.
 

Secret of Sukkot

Get ready to learn some amazing Hebrew word connections between Sukkot and God's attribute of mercy, and the days of Judgement on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

Western Wall Sukkah is Open to All in Need

Sukkot can be felt everywhere in Israel, and a special effort was made to erect Sukkahs alongside the nation's soup kitchens for the poor. The most frequented sukkah is adjacent to the Colel Chabad soup kitchen just above the Western Wall Plaza.
