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.

Elijah Kiddush Cup

This Elijah Cup is a wooden Kiddush Cup filled with wine for the Prophet Elijah during the Passover Seder. Yair Emanuel is a well known Israeli artist famous for his depictions of the old city. This cup features an impressive Jerusalem skyline image.

"Tabernacle of David" ✡ Karmey Chesed is Rebuilding Jerusalem Through Kindness - ISRAEL365

In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof, and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old.

AMOS 9:11
 

בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אָקִים אֶת סֻכַּת דָּוִיד הַנֹּפֶלֶת וְגָדַרְתִּי אֶת פִּרְצֵיהֶן וַהֲרִסֹתָיו אָקִים וּבְנִיתִיהָ כִּימֵי עוֹלָם

Today's Israel Inspiration

Today's verse tells of how God will raise up the Sukkah of David, Tabernacle of David, once again. The return of David's Sukkah is the most obvious sign of the return of Jerusalem to its ideal glory. Karmey Chessed ("Vineyards of Kindness") is doing this holy work today as it builds the city of Jerusalem through kindness. Right now, it is providing the defenders of Jerusalem with sumptuous meals this holiday season.

Israeli Coin Cufflinks Half Shekel

The half shekel was the traditional biblical contribution of each Israelite, when a census was taken. These cufflinks, made from actual Israeli coins, feature the classic Lion of Judah with the word “Israel” written below in Hebrew.

Today's Israel Photo

Today's picture, by Amos Gal, shows stones that remain from the Temple times. A permanent reminder to keep Jerusalem in our prayers; may it be rebuilt in its full glory.
 

Yesterday's Photo Trivia

Sukkot was placed at the beginning of fall when the weather becomes colder and people no longer sit outdoors for pleasure. We sit in a Sukkah at this time of year to demonstrate that we do so solely to fulfill God's commandment.

Thank You
