Celebrating the Rejuvenation of the Holy Land ✡ "A Park of Pomegranates" - ISRAEL365

Thy shoots are a park of pomegranates, with precious fruits; henna with spikenard plants,

שְׁלָחַיִךְ פַּרְדֵּס רִמּוֹנִים עִם פְּרִי מְגָדִים כְּפָרִים עִם נְרָדִים

שיר השירים ד:יג

sh’-la-KHA-yikh par-DAYS ri-mo-NEEM im p’-REE m’-ga-DEEM k’-fa-REEM im
n’-ra-DEEM

Today's Israel Inspiration

The pomegranate has always been a symbol of beauty; its unique shape is a favorite design element, appearing on the priestly garments and on the pillars at the entrance to the Temple in Jerusalem, as well as featuring in many forms of artwork to this day. The special fruit is one of the seven agricultural species indigenous to the Land of Israel (as seen in Deuteronomy 8:8). Help Israel365 perpetuate the beauty of the Holy Land's fruits by planting trees and vineyards across the hills of Judea and Samaria. Now when you donate a garden, you will receive a beautiful printed certificate to present to friends and family that you were a part of prophetic fulfillment.

Rabbi Tuly and His Family Plant Trees in the Land of Israel for Tu B'Shvat

On Friday, February 10, Rabbi Tuly and his whole family went to the grounds of Eshtaol (between Beit Shemesh and Jerusalem), to restore the forest that was burned in the arson attacks that plagued the Land of Israel in November 2016.

Is Genetic Engineering Recreating the Sin of Noah’s Generation?

New technology enabling scientists to manipulate genes, mixing human genes and organs with those of animals, is a disturbing trend in science which one rabbi believes mirrors the sin that led to global destruction in the generation of Noah.

“I Think it's a Wonderful Website”

It’s great to hear from you and make new friends from all over the world. Please send me an email and let me know how you are enjoying Israel365 (don’t forget to say where you are from!).


Hello Israel365 Team, I think it's a wonderful website in every way. It's vibrant and informative and spiritual too. You certainly know how to reach out to everyone. I can see why we are commanded to pray for the peace of Jerusalem - I do this every day, and pray for G-d's shalom to be with each IDF soldier, watching the borders, buildings, towns and cities. May the Almighty have that Pillar of Cloud handy should it be needed for another miracle! Praying for positive changes now in Israel. Love and prayers to you all, Shabbat Shalom. - Myriam
Shalom,
Rabbi Tuly Weisz

Today is Tu B'Shvat: The New Year for the Trees ✡ "A Park of Pomegranates" - ISRAEL365

He brought us to this place and He gave us this Land,
a Land flowing with milk and honey.

וַיְבִאֵנוּ אֶל הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וַיִּתֶּן לָנוּ אֶת הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּאת אֶרֶץ זָבַת חָלָב וּדְבָשׁ

דברים כו:ט

va-y'-vi-nu el ha-ma-kom ha-ze va-yi-ten la-nu et ha-a-retz ha-zot e-retz za-vat kha-lav u-d'-vash

Today's Israel Inspiration

Today is the 15th day of the Hebrew month of Sh'vat, known as Tu B'shvat: the New Year for the Trees. It is a time when all those who love the Land rejoice in its bounty and eat of its blessed fruit. During these days, the soil of the Land has already been saturated with winter rains, so that trees planted after Tu B'Shevat will take firm root and thrive. Take part in the beloved tradition of planting trees in the Holy Land in honor of Tu B'Shevat!

The Biblical Significance of
Tu B'Shvat

Have you ever wondered what Tu B'shvat is really all about? Or what its connection is to the Bible? Rabbi Tuly explains all!
 

What’s More Important Than Praying for Messiah’s Arrival?

So important are planting trees in Israel that the ancient rabbis in the Talmud taught us that if a person is planting a tree and hears that the Messiah has arrived, he should finish planting the tree before going to greet the Messiah!

Today is Tu B'Shevat, the 15th of the Hebrew month Shevat, and marks the New Years of the Trees. It is a very important day for the Seven Species identified in the Torah to have special significance to the Land of Israel: Wheat, barley, grapes, dates, figs, olives, pomegranates. Rebbetzin Siegelbaum takes you on a journey of the Holy Land through the seven species as she traces their significance from Biblical times until modern day, delves deeply into their mystical and medicinal properties, and offers pages of wholesome recipes for each.

“I Love the Beautiful Pictures”

It’s great to hear from you and make new friends from all over the world. Please send me an email and let me know how you are enjoying Israel365 (don’t forget to say where you are from!).
 
Hi,  I waited  awhile to email you,  because I wanted to word this correctly.  First off,  I am a Roman Catholic and believe in Jesus as the  Messiah.  That being said,  I totally believe that the Hebrews,  Jews, as I do not know what is proper name, are the chosen people of God and have total rights to Israel and Jerusalem,  I pray our new president will regonize that. I  have studied the Torah,  and what we call the Old Testament,  and all archeological findings and what I have read, convinces me of that! Please,  I am not a sychophant, I am a believer and love God with all my being.  I am unable to send money as I am partially disabled,  but I vote and help spread the word about Gods love for the Jewish people.  I am appalled at the u.n. and am ashamed that the U.S. did not stand up for one of our best allies! I wish I could do more,  but, I do what I can.  Please keep me on your email,  as I love reading the emails and love the beautiful pictures.  Your friend, Brady Mayes---May God bless you always!
Shalom,
Rabbi Tuly Weisz
