The Bible Comes to Life in the City of David ✡ "The Gentile Calls Out to You"

Hear, in heaven Your dwelling place, and do according to all that the Gentile calls out to You, that all the people of the world may know Your name.

I KINGS (8:43)
 

אַתָּה תִּשְׁמַע הַשָּׁמַיִם מְכוֹן שִׁבְתֶּךָ וְעָשִׂיתָ כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר יִקְרָא אֵלֶיךָ הַנָּכְרִי לְמַעַן יֵדְעוּן כָּל עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ אֶת שְׁמֶךָ

מְלָכִים א  ח:מג

a-ta tish'-ma ha-sha-ma-yeem m'-khon shiv'-te-kha v'-a-see-ta k'-khol a-sher yik'-ra ay-le-kha ha-nakh'-ree l'-ma-an yay-d'-un kol a-may ha-a-retz et sh'-me-kha

Jerusalem Inspiration

Upon his dedication of the Temple, King Solomon declares in front of the entire People of Israel, that the Temple must fill a universal role and that Jerusalem would host all those who, “call out to You.” These prayerful words are etched in glass and displayed prominently today on a large monument at the Western Wall, the same site Solomon stood at 3,000 years ago. 'Karmey Chessed' answers the call of those who call out to God in need by providing food, money and medical supplies to those who can't provide for themselves.
 

Where the Bible Comes to Life

The City of David, located south of the Temple Mount, is rich with archeological treasures that map out the stories of the Bible and the Jewish kings.
 

A Twisted Sense of Freedom

The announcement of the second Iranian Holocaust denial competition came shortly after the first post-massacre issue of the Charlie Hebdo magazine, which also depicted a cartoon of Mohammed. In a twisted plea towards freedom of speech, Iran boasts of the last competition's winning cartoon.

ISRAEL365 - Israel Photo Trivia ✡ "Avert the Evil Decree"

On Rosh Hashana it is written and on Yom Kippur it is sealed...but repentance, prayer and charity can avert the evil decree.

YOM KIPPUR PRAYERS
 

בְּראשׁ הַשָּׁנָה יִכָּתֵבוּן וּבְיום צום כִּפּוּר יֵחָתֵמוּן... וּתְשׁוּבָה וּתְפִלָּה וּצְדָקָה מַעֲבִירִין אֶת רעַ הַגְּזֵרָה

יום כפור תפילות


b'-rosh ha-sha-na yi-ka-tay-vun u-v'-yom tzum ki-pur yay-kha-tay-mun ... u-t'-shu-va u-t'-fi-la u-tz'-da-ka ma-a-vee-reen et ro-a ha-g'-zay-ra

Today's Israel Inspiration

We're now in the holiest period of the Jewish calendar, the 10 days between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur when God judges all of mankind and determines what will occur in the upcoming year. Not only are our own fortunes decided, but the fate of countries and nations hangs in the balance and any one good deed can push the scales in favor of blessing and life. We therefore go out of our way to find any opportunity we can to pray harder, repent sincerely, and give charity in order to be signed and sealed in the Book of Life.
 

Israel365 Presents: Jumpin' Jerusalem

Share the significance of Yom Kippur with the next generation! In our video for children, you'll learn what Yom Kippur means in Hebrew, and why Jews wear white clothing and fast on our holiest day of the year.
 

Providing the Positive

We are barraged with pessimism and disapproval at every turn. Positive words provide a counterbalance. One man does something to provide this counterbalance.

Pope's Visit to the Western Wall

God will surely bless you in the Land that the Lord, your God, will give you as an inheritance to possess it.

DEUTERONOMY (15:4)

כִּי בָרֵךְ יְבָרֶכְךָ יְ-הוָה בָּאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר יְ-הוָה אֱ-לֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לְךָ נַחֲלָה לְרִשְׁתָּהּ

דברים טו:ד


kee ba-RAYKH y'-va-REKH-kha a-do-NAI ba-a-RETZ a-SHER e-lo-HE-kha no-TAYN l'-KHA na-kha-LA l'-rish-TA

Today's Israel Inspiration

Several amazing speakers came out for our farewell tour dinner in Jerusalem this past Sunday night. Chris Mitchell of the Christian Broadcast Network shared his take, as a Jerusalem correspondent, on the peace process, declaring that the Land is not "ours or theirs" to negotiate, but rather is God's Land, and when diplomacy fails time and again, it is solely because "He is the silent peace partner." It was a stirring reminder to look behind the headlines, and to thank God for granting the Jewish people "an inheritance" in His blessed Land.

Pope's Visit to the Western Wall

Pope Francis visited the Temple Mount early yesterday morning, meeting with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. He then prayed at the Western Wall.

Cost of Peace in Israel: $250 Billion

The 1993 Oslo Peace Accords, which were meant to bring stability to Israel, have actually cost the country over $250 billion and more than 1,000 human casualties.  Meanwhile, the peace that was promised is nowhere to be seen.
