Get to Heaven Keep the Seven

Everybody wants spirituality. To be a good person means to walk in G-d's ways. How does that translate to reality? The only guidebook to spirituality that has stood the test of time is the Hebrew Bible. The Bible says that the Jews will be a light onto the nations. But if you are not a born Jew, you have to convert, which is not so easy!! If you do convert, it is a lot of work to be a Jew (three times a day prayer, keeping kosher, observing the Sabbath).

This blog will show you how to be Jewish without the work!!

Rabbi Yehuda Lave

Tailor your Advice to the Situation

If someone solicits your advice, ask yourself, "How would I feel if I were in this person's situation?" Try to really empathize.

Furthermore, keep in mind that each individual is unique. Take this person's personality, life situation, and resources into consideration before giving advice. (If this seems like a big task, that's because it is!)

Thousands March 9 B'Av Night in Support of Israeli Sovereignty in Judea and Samaria The state of mind of "I can't do it" is the cause of defeat. That's the root of the destruction, said march organizer Yehudit Katsover.

7 Jews Arrested on 9 Av on Temple Mount [video] As the Jews were being arrested, dozens of Muslims started ganging up on the cops and the visitors, screaming that same incriminating call of faith in God, except in the approved Arabic.

Jerusalem Police said it detained seven Jewish visitors to the Temple Mount on Sundaay, the 9th of Av, for "breaking the rules" set by the Waqf, the Jordanian charity that runs the compound. According to legal aid society Honenu, three detainees said "Shema Israel" and "Hashem Hu Ha'Elohim." Hear, oh Israel, God is the Lord — very similar to what the hordes of Muslims had been yelling the entire day while stalking and harassing the visitors — Allah hu Akbar — God is graet.

Another Jewish visitor was arrested for tearing his shirt, a Jewish expression of mourning which did not pass the waqf's standards for proper Jewish behavior.

The Second Temple was destroyed and the people of Israel exiled from their home 2000 years ago. The Jewish people remember the death, destruction and devastation every year with a fast on Tisha B'Av (9th of the Jewish month of Av).

Starting Saturday night and continuing throughout the day Sunday, worshipers at the Kotel have been reading the Book of Lamentations, as well as lamentations written following the destruction of the Temple. Because studying Torah is considered a joyous activity, it is not permitted on Tisha B'Av.

Thousands of people arrived at the Western Wall in Jerusalem on Saturday night to mark Tisha B'Av by praying at the last remnant of the Second Temple, with thousands more expected to arrive throughout the day Sunday.

The Time to Rebuild the Jewish Temple is upon us! Even though the 2,000-year-old dream of building the Third Temple was postponed, the desire and the obligation to build the Israeli house of God still lives. Several movements have been born as a result of the desire to "arise and build."
