It was a highlight to my experience in living in Israel and I put it on my blog each day to remember. The articles that I include each day are those that I find interesting, so I feel you will find them interesting as well. I don't always agree with all the points of each article but found them interesting or important to share with you, my readers, and friends. It is cathartic for me to share my thoughts and frustrations with you about life in general and in Israel. As a Rabbi, I try to teach and share the Torah of the G-d of Israel as a modern Orthodox Rabbi. I never intend to offend anyone but sometimes people are offended and I apologize in advance for any mistakes. The most important psychological principle I have learned is that once someone's mind is made up, they don't want to be bothered with the facts, so, like Rabbi Akiva, I drip water (Torah is compared to water) on their made-up minds and hope that some of what I have share sinks in. Love Rabbi Yehuda Lave. Inspiring stories from the bomb shelter Stories to remember that took place in various bomb shelters (miklatim) across Eretz Yisrael in the recent war with Iran. https://www.israelnationalnews... Simple Blood Test May Predict Alzheimer’s Years Before Brain Scans Show Signs Mass General Brigham researchers used long-term data and a blood test for the biomarker pTau217 to identify the earliest signs of Alzheimer’s disease in cognitively healthy adults. A team of investigators at Mass General Brigham reports that a blood test measuring plasma phosphorylated tau 217 (pTau217), a biomarker linked to Alzheimer’s disease, can forecast changes seen on amyloid PET scans as well as later cognitive decline in older adults who currently show no signs of impairment. These findings suggest it may be possible to identify risk much earlier and with simpler tools, opening the door to earlier intervention.  https://scitechdaily.com/simpl...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Fossilized footprints in Saudi Arabia show human traffic on the cusp of a subsequent ice age. Like carbon dating, scientists use isotopes and context clues to calculate the approximate age of fossils. These human prints were surrounded by animals but not hunted animals, indicating humans were just thirsty. https://www.popularmechanics.c... Over 250 Indians of ‘Biblical Tribe Descent’ Arrive in Israel After 50 Years in Space, Voyager 1 Becomes the First Human-Made Object to Travel One Full Light-Day from Earth In late 2026, Voyager 1 will become the first human-made object to reach a full light-day from Earth, but there’s more to this story than just distance. In November 2026, NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft will become the first human-made object to travel a full light-day from Earth. Nearly 50 years after its launch, this milestone highlights the vastness of space and the incredible distances left to explore as humanity ventures beyond our Solar System. https://dailygalaxy.com/2026/0... Those we have lost Stories of civilians and soldiers killed since Hamas’s onslaught on Israel on October 7, 2023 Every day you can look at another victim and send him/her prayers Those we have lost | The Times of Israel Categories Civilians IDF Israel Defense Forces soldiers and reservists Police officers Israel Police and Border Police officers First responders Local security team members, firefighters and medics Supernova festival Those who attended the Supernova or Psyduck festivals Foreigners Foreign workers, tourists and students The Portion of Beha'alotcha The Source of Parenhthesis and their Significance Our portion begins with G-d's commandment to Aaron the High Priest concerning the lighting of the menorah in the Tabernacle. This is followed by the description of the work of the Levites and their preparations for transporting the Tabernacle from place to place in the desert. The portion also describes the erection of the Tabernacle, the divine cloud which covers it when it is ready for use, the means of transporting it and one other matter not directly connected to all of the above- the people's complaint to G-d concerning their desire to eat meat. Between these two sections we find two verses consisting of 85 letters: "So it was, whenever the ark set out, Moses would say : Arise, O Lord, may Your enemies be scattered and may those who hate You flee from You. And when it came to rest he would say, Repose O Lord, among the myriads of thousands of Israel. " (Numbers 10;35-36) These verses are not in any way connected to the section which precedes it nor to the section which follows it and therefore they require an explanation as to their seemingly strange placement. The Talmud (Tractate Shabbat 115b) presents two opinions. Rabbo Yehudah Hanasi's opinion is based on a verse in Proverbs (9;1) "Wisdom has built her house; she has carved its seven pillars". This refers to the seven books of the Torah. In other words even though we are used to referring to the Torah as a compilation of five books, Rabbi Yehudah Hanasi divides the Torah into seven books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers until these two verses, the two verses themselves, Numbers following these two verses and Deuteronomy. In his opinion, these two verses by themselves constitute a complete book of the Torah! Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel offers a different explanation. He says that these two verses come to separate two calamities- the first being the hasty departure fro Mt. Sinai and the second being the complaints concerning the lack of meat. All this is alluded to by the fact that these two verses are set apart from the rest of the text by "signs"- one before and one following. Says the Talmud "G-d made signs before and after". What are the signs? We find an inverted letter "nun" before the first verse and a similar inverted "nun" following the second verse, as if they were parenthesis. This is the only place in the Torah where G-d placed "signs" such as these. There are some who say that since there cannot be extra letters in the Torah one is to invert the letter "nun" in the word "nasa" and the letter "nun" in the word "mitonenim", thereby creating the first set of parenthesis in the history of the world! (For an explanation of the 12 different methods of writing the two "nuns", see the Torah Shleimah of Rav Kasher, chapter 11, page 124.) See you Sunday bli neder, Shabbat Shalom We need Mashiach now!
