Visit the Israel Carmel Winery ✡ "Took of Them For Bread and Wine" - ISRAEL365

But the former governors that were before me
laid burdens upon the people, and took of them forbread and wine above forty shekels of silver; yea, even their servants lorded over the people; but so did not I, because of the fear of God.

NEHEMIAH (5:15)

וְהַפַּחוֹת הָרִאשֹׁנִים אֲשֶׁר לְפָנַי הִכְבִּידוּ עַל הָעָם וַיִּקְחוּ מֵהֶם בְּלֶחֶם וָיַיִן אַחַר כֶּסֶף שְׁקָלִים אַרְבָּעִים  גַּם נַעֲרֵיהֶם שָׁלְטוּ עַל הָעָם וַאֲנִי לֹא עָשִׂיתִי כֵן מִפְּנֵי יִרְאַת אֱ-לֹהִים

Jerusalem Inspiration

More than any other produce, bread and wine were the staples of ancient society. Bread provides basic nourishment, and wine's alcoholic properties were used to disinfect water.  Jews recite special benedictions over both bread and wine, and they are both utilized in spiritual rituals, thus strengthening the connection between physical and spiritual sustenance. In addition, wheat and grapes are two of the special agricultural products associated with the Land of Israel (Deuteronomy 8:8). Today, after 2,000 years of desolation, Israel prophetically boasts a booming agriculture and over 200 wineries that produce award-winning wines. 'Karmey Chessed' means Vineyards of Kindness, and this organization's goal is to spread the bounty of Israel to those who need it most.  While IDF soldiers bring to mind valiant fighters, the reality is that there are many soldiers that suffer from extreme poverty.  Karmey Chessed embraces these young men and often their families, providing them with the necessary staples that these heroes need and deserve.

Help Needed Far From the Battlefield

When we think of Israeli soldiers, we tend to think of brave warriors fighting in the field. However, for certain soldiers, their battles are also fought for day-to-day survival.  One organization heard their plight and answered, learn how.
