Love Yehuda Lave Join my blog by sending me an email to YehudaLave@gmail.com The Three Musketeers at the Kotel The Three are Rabbi Yehuda Glick, famous temple mount activist, and former Israel Mk, and then Robert Weinger, the world's greatest shofar blower and seller of Shofars, and myself after we had gone to the 12 gates of the Temple Mount in 2020 to blow the shofar to ask G-d to heal the world from the Pandemic. 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. Four 1,900-year-old Roman swords found in Judean Desert, likely from Bar Kochba revolt Apparently stolen by Jewish rebels, the incredibly well-preserved weapons are 'an extremely rare find, the likes of which have never been found in Israel' By MELANIE LIDMAN Four 1,900-year-old Roman swords found in Judean Desert, likely from Bar Kochba revolt | The Times of Israel The Portion of Vayeilaich The Numerical Value of the Letter "Kuf" is One Hundred Moses is about to complete his task of leading the Children of Israel. The time has come to transfer the leadership to his trusted disciple Joshua. G-d turns to Moses and instructs him to stand in front of the Tent of Meeting. The message that Moses hears is not a simple one: "Behold, you are about to] lie with your forefathers, and this nation will rise up and stray after the deities of the nations of the land" (Deuteronomy 31;16). The Temple, which measures 100 cubits (Tractate Midot), will be destroyed. Rebecca had already seen this in a prophecy: "And Rebecca said to Isaac "I am disgusted with my life" (Genesis 27;46). The letter "kuf" in the word "katzti" (disgusted) is written smaller than the other letters. The letter "kuf" in the word "vekam" (will rise up) is emphasized with additional crowns, alluding to the ultimate destruction of the Temple many years before its erection.

Five Fortified Ancient Cities May Be Part of King David's Lost Kingdom The ruins of five fortified cities outside of Jerusalem were allegedly part of the empire of King David, is the controversial claim of an Israeli archaeologist. In a new story, the archaeologist argues that they were created in the 10th century BC, 200 years earlier than previously thought. Using aerial imagery, the published paper showcases the casements of Khirbet Qeiyafa's city wall in order to argue that the five cities followed a similar design since they were created to be components in a united network. The city walls also served as dwellings or storage spaces, with the urban centers all featuring two parallel walls in the center, organized roads and connection to one singular kingdom. This discovery provides support for the theory that King David governed a large and intricate kingdom. The evidence for this hypothesis is based on years of meticulous examination of old archaeological publications by archaeologist Yosef Garfinkel from the Institute of Archaeology at Hebrew University. The academic paper has been published the Jerusalem Journal of Archaeology .
