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!!

Diversity Of Viewpoint Not Welcome At Cardozo Law School By Alan M. Dershowitz & The Correspondence Of Rav Yitzchak Halevi Herzog By Saul Jay Singer & History Repeating Itself on Campus–Why? By Daniel Greenfield
Yehuda Lave is an author, journalist, psychologist, rabbi, spiritual teacher, and coach, with degrees in business, psychology and Jewish Law. He works with people from all walks of life and helps them in their search for greater happiness, meaning, business advice on saving money, and spiritual engagement.
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 Correspondence Of Rav Yitzchak Halevi Herzog
Rav Yitzchak Halevi Herzog (1888-1959) was the first chief rabbi of Ireland (1921-1936), in which capacity he strongly supported Ireland's struggle for independence, and he was elected Ashkenazi chief rabbi of Eretz Yisrael (1936-1959), overcoming strong opposition by charedim, who argued that his secular education disqualified a "rabbi doctor" to the position.
Rav Herzog, who never attended a yeshiva, was educated by his father, a rabbi in Leeds and, after receiving semicha from Rav Yaakov Dovid Wilovsky (the "Ridbaz"), he went on to achieve the greatest heights of rabbinic scholarship. He also attended the Sorbonne and later the University of London, where he received his doctorate with his Ph.D. thesis, The Dyeing of Purple in Ancient Israel (1919), making him famous throughout the Jewish world. His thesis concerned his rediscovery of techelet, the special light blue dye that the Talmud describes as being exclusively derived from a marine animal known as the chillazon, which was used for the clothing of the Kohen Gadol, the tapestries in the Tabernacle, and tzitzit.
A true polymath and a classic Renaissance man, Rav Herzog was knowledgeable in a wide variety of academic disciplines, including areas such as Greek metaphysics, Roman legal theory, Arabic poetry, medieval Jewish philosophy, current political issues and contemporary science, including zoology, botany, astronomy, physics and chemistry. Over and above being a respected Hebrew grammarian and rabbinic scholar, he was a linguist who mastered twelve languages, including many ancient tongues such as Sumerian and Acadian and classical Greek and Latin.

Universally recognized as a leading rabbinical authority, he wrote many books and articles addressing halachic problems involving the Torah and the State of Israel; his writings played a leading role in shaping the approach of the Religious Zionist Movement toward the Jewish State. He wrote the Tefilla L'Shlom HaMedinah (the "Prayer for the Welfare of the State of Israel"), was awarded the 1958 Israel Prize in rabbinical literature, and became the progenitor of two Israeli presidents – his son Chaim and grandson Isaac.
The Nazi cheers of Sieg Heil didn't start out in Munich, but in Massachusetts.
The Nazi chant was borrowed from Harvard football cheers and imported to Germany by Ernst "Putzy" Hanfstaengl, a Harvard man in good standing who befriended Hitler and helped build a more respectable brand for the National Socialists.
