Love Yehuda Lave Join my blog by sending me an email to YehudaLave@gmail.com Rabbi Ote's guide to Passover and cleaning https://drive.google.com/file/... In Both Hebrew and English--twenty five pages 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. The tribe of Levi – public servants The Levites served in policing roles against criminals and deserting soldiers, and when necessary, they also joined the most elite combat units in the war itself. Rabbi Eliezer Melamed  Some say that yeshiva students who do not enlist in the army are like the members of the tribe of Levi who studied in yeshivas and kollelim, and did not participate in the wars of Israel. According to them, the Rambam wrote this as well. Are their words correct according to the Torah? A: There is no basis for their words. On the contrary, the members of the tribe of Levi were dedicated to public affairs, and were committed to this. In times of peace, their role was to go out to the nation and teach Torah, instruct in Jewish law, and serve as police officers for all matters of law and order regarding interpersonal matters, and matters between man and God. And in times of war, their role was to strengthen the spirit of the fighters, like the Military Rabbinate and the Education Corps, and to serve as military police enforcing the draft laws on the entire nation, severely punishing deserters and those fleeing from the battlefield. http://www.israelnationalnews....

It is the intersection of left-wing activists and Muslim migrants. An Inconvenient Truth - Tablet Magazine The prospective growth of a large population of young Muslims who may be religiously or politically inclined toward hatred of Jews and Israel poses a particular problem for Germany in light of the Holocaust.' A rally led by the far-right Pegida movement (Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamization of the West) in Dresden, Germany. ESPEN RASMUSSEN/VII/REDUX The Portion of Shemini Preserving the Tradition of Writing a Sefer Torah Following the seven days of preparation during which Moses trained Aaron and his sons on the proper procedure for offering the sacrifices in the Tabernacle, Aaron is called upon to begin with the sacrifice of his own sin offering. Two mishaps occur at the beginning of the service in the Tabernacle. The first involves two of Aaron's sons, Nadav and Avihu, who offered a "strange fire" on the altar. G-d responded quickly: "And fire went forth from before the Lord and consumed them"(Leviticus 10;2). The second mishap occurs when the sin offering is consumed by fire which angers Moses: "And Moses thoroughly investigated concerning the sin offering he goat, and behold, it had been burnt! (Leviticus 10;16). The words "darosh darash" (thoroughly investigated) are written in the Torah accordingly: the first word at the end of a line and the second word at the beginning of the next line. This marks the middle of the Torah in terms of words, as per the Talmud in Tractate Kiddushin (30a). There is also an addition to the letters "reish" in both words. (Rokeiach on the Torah) In this way our sages succeeded in preserving the exact tradition of Sifrei Torah throughout history and throughout the world. It should be noted that if one counts the number of words, one does not get to the middle of the Torah. The intent of the Talmudic statement refers to the amount of "double words" as in "darosh darash" or "haremesh haromes" (Genesis 1;26)", "shiva shiva (Genesis 7;2), etc. There are 89 "double words" in the Torah. "Darosh darash" is number 45- 44 before these words and 44 after these words. See the attached list.
