Today's verse, from the end of the Book of Genesis, introduces the blessings that Jacob bestows upon his children. Jewish commentators explain that really, Jacob intended on doing more than bless his children; his ultimate desire was to tell them about the ‘End of Days’ and the arrival of the Moshiach (Messiah). Although Jacob wanted to spell it out clearly, the details surrounding the Moshiach were hidden, meant to be shrouded in mystery and anticipated by Jacob’s family each and every day.

Shalom, Rabbi, Israel is in my heart, my mind and in my dreams. I've just spent two months in the Tel Aviv region and loved it there. I live in the South island of New Zealand, and send greetings from there. I enjoy your pictures of Israel especially. Danuta
