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!!

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.

130,000-year-old clues from Israel's Tinshemet Cave point to shared Homo behaviors

These findings came from an excavation led by Israeli researchers from Hebrew University, Tel Aviv University, and other academic institutions in the country starting back in 2017.

In central Israel, a key archaeological discovery connects two different species of human — Homo sapiens and Neanderthals — not only crossed paths, but that they may have engaged in cultural exchanges.

These findings came from an excavation led by Israeli researchers from Hebrew University, Tel Aviv University, and other academic institutions in the country starting back in 2017. Revealed to the public in a peer-reviewed study, scientists can now better understand the earliest days of human history.

These two distinct human species were believed to have actively interacted with each other, contradicting the previous theory that each lived in isolation. As a result, archaeologists deduced that their interactions spanned through technology, burial practices, and other aspects of general life.
