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.

By Nava Freiberg Garo Sandrouni in his studio, August 28, 2025. (Nava Freiberg/The Times of Israel) 11 Facts You Should Know About a Beth Din (Jewish Court of Law) By Yehuda Altein 11 Facts You Should Know About a Beth Din (Jewish Court of Law) - Chabad.org After 300 days of reserve duty: Man wins 10 million NIS lottery A father of four from southern Israel won 10 million shekels in the National Lottery after 300 days of reserve duty, planning a family trip and considering a career change A father of four from southern Israel in his fifties won the Israeli National Lottery first prize of 10 million shekels in a drawing at the end of last month. The winner, who has been serving in reserve duty since October 7th, 2023, revealed that he filled out the winning ticket, choosing his regular series of numbers, which relate to his family members. After 300 days of reserve duty: Man wins 10 million NIS lottery | Israel National News RABBI SCHWARTZ'S REALLY TERRIBLE MURDERING JOKES OF THE WEEK Berel was convicted of murdering his wife of 30 years. Before handing the sentence, the judge addressed the defendant: "The court would like you to explain what made you murder your wife after over 30 years of marriage". "Well, your honor" answered Berel "it's mostly procrastination. Every day I kept telling myself I'll do it tomorrow..." Murdering people is not what gets you jail time. Not properly disposing of the bodies is what gets you jail time. I've got to stop murdering elderly nuns. Old habits die hard. I've been charged with murdering a man with sandpaper. But, to be honest, I just intended to rough him up a bit. Tommy is in court for murder. His Jewish defense lawyer Chaim is at the last legs of his argument. In one final attempt, he says to the court "In ten seconds the man my client is suspected of murdering will walk into the courtroom completely unharmed". Chaim counts down from ten and everybody looks to the door. Nothing happens. " Ah ha!" says the defense "you all looked to the door, therefor I conclude that ther is reasonable doubt in this case and ask that my client be found not guilty." The jury then deliberates. After twenty-five minutes they return the verdict of guilty. "But you all looked!" Says the Chaim. "Yes," says the Jury, "but your client didn't." Long ago in ancient Rome, the most heinous criminals were brought before Caesar to be sentenced. One criminal was accused of murdering his mother-in-law. What made his crime especially depraved was that, after he strangled her, he allegedly cannibalized her body. Caesar said to the man, "What do you have to say for yourself?" "By golly I did it! I did it all, and if I could do it again, I wouldn't do one thing different!" So Caesar said, "You will be put into the Colosseum, where you will be forced to do battle with men and vicious beasts. The people of Rome will delight in the spectacle of your death." And the tribunes heard and nodded at one another in agreement; for they could think of no more fitting a punishment. Because, after all, he was glad 'e ate 'er. My wife and I can never agree on vacations. I want to go to exotic islands and stay in 5 star hotels. She wants to come with me.

(ANDER GILLENEA / AFP) Long-lost painting looted by Nazis found in Argentina As we celebrate Rosh HaShanah and welcome a new year, we're reminded of the sweetness of honey — and the importance of protecting the bees and environment that sustain us. At the Technion, scientists and alumni are leading groundbreaking innovations to protect bees, strengthen Israel, and build a more sustainable future for generations to come. Protecting the Bees: The Technion's Impact Luciano Pavarotti Luciano Pavarotti OMRI (/ˌluːtʃiˈɑːnoʊ ˌpævəˈrɒti/ LOO-chee-AH-noh PAV-ə-ROT-ee, US also /- ˌpɑːv-/ -⁠ PAHV-, Italian: [luˈtʃaːno pavaˈrɔtti]; 12 October 1935 – 6 September 2007) was an Italian operatic tenor who during the late part of his career crossed over into popular music, eventually becoming one of the most acclaimed tenors of all time. He made numerous recordings of complete operas and individual arias, gaining worldwide fame for his tone, and gaining the nickname "King of the High Cs". As one of the Three Tenors, who performed their first concert during the 1990 FIFA World Cup before a global audience, Pavarotti became well known for his televised concerts and media appearances. From the beginning of his professional career as a tenor in 1961 in Italy to his final performance of "Nessun dorma" at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Pavarotti was at his best in bel canto operas, pre-Aida Verdi roles, and Puccini works such as La bohème, Tosca, Turandot and Madama Butterfly. He sold more than 100 million records,[1] and the first Three Tenors recording became the best-selling classical album of all time. Pavarotti was also noted for his charity work on behalf of refugees and the Red Cross, amongst others. He was appointed a Knight Grand Cross of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic in 1988,[2] and died from pancreatic cancer on 6 September 2007.
