Hanukkah celebrates the miraculous victory of the small Jewish nation over the mighty Greek army. This was the first war in history to be fought not for land or power, but for the sake of religious ideals. The Greeks sought to "enlighten" the Jewish people by severing their ties to the Torah and forcefully prohibiting biblical commandments. Today, the modern nation of Israel faces new enemies who seek to sever the Jewish nation's biblical connection to Judea. “People need to understand that when the media says ‘Israeli occupied territory’, the ‘West bank’, ‘Palestine’ and ‘Settlement’ they are talking about Israel’s Biblical heartland and ancient prophecy,” says David Rubin, author and founder of the Shiloh Israel Children's Fund. Rubin's new book, “God, Israel, & Shiloh,” takes you on a trip with the Children of Israel from the Exodus to the rebuilding of modern Shiloh, the first capital of ancient Israel, and Jerusalem. It will open your eyes to significance of Judea, the Biblical heartland.

| Hi there, My name is Ester Mahabi and I live in Papua New Guinea, north of Australia. I very much enjoy Israel365. It is an educational website that keeps me informed on the current issues happening in Israel as well as the Biblical truths about so many things. I have learnt a great deal. Your information has made me pray more for Israel and through it I found so much peace too and spiritual connection. My family is also influenced the same. Though Christians, my family and I have become so observant too and have been keeping Sabbath too. I will say that when we decided to keep clean and observe Sabbath, it also brings peace to our neighborhood. |

Shalom,
