The pathology report won't come for two weeks but the Doctor was postive Baruch Hashem 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.

In order to fight against the Children of Israel he decides to enlist the assistance of Bilam ben Be'or, an expert on curses. Bilam is convinced to come to Moav and activate his secret weapon. However, as we know, not only didn't he curse the Children of Israel but he blessed them. "Who counted the dust of Jacob …" (Numbers 23;10) The upper part of the letter "ayin" in both the word "afar" and "Yaakov" looks like the letter "yud", an allusion to ten commandments which the people of Israel keep even in the dust and therefore it is impossible to curse them. When they go out to plow: "Do not plow with an ox and a donkey together" (Deuteronomy 22;10). When they go out to plant: "Do not sow your field with two kinds of seed" (Leviticus 19;19). When they go to eat, they spread their ten fingers before the Almighty and say: "My Master, these ten fingers do not taste anything until they have fulfilled your ten commandments in the dust". They then spread their two hands and recite the "hamotzi", a blessing which consists of ten words. (Sefer Rokeiach on the Torah, and mentioned by Rashi- with a change- on this verse.)
