Today's Israel Inspiration
In today's famous verse, the Almighty promises Abraham
that not only will he have the power to bestow blessings
on others, but he will be the standard by which all others
around the world will be blessed. Stand strong and be
blessed with the people of Israel, and the holy city of Hebron.
The small Jewish community of Hebron preserves the burial
place of Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebecca, Jacob
and Leah, and give us merit.
