It's an easier and more accessible version of the Encyclopedia Judaica.? Actually, many of their cited resources are from the Encyclopedia Judaica.Sefaria, on the other hand, is a compendium of the Tanach, plus many other Sifrei Kodesh such as Midrash, Mussar, Responsa.? It offers many commentaries and, in many cases, it offers both text and commentaries in English translation as well as the original Hebrew.? It is an ongoing work, constantly adding more commentaries and offering more translations as they are made available. It is an incredible resource.They really serve completely different purposes and are both very useful.?I hope this helps.Bruchie WeinsteinLibrarianMagen David Yeshivah HSBrooklyn On Tuesday, December 10, 2024 at 07:28:16 PM EST, Michelle Sandler via Hasafran <[email protected]> wrote: What is the difference between Sefaria and the Jewish Virtual Library?

Chanukah, the Jewish Festival of Lights, is observed for eight days, beginning on the evening of the 25th day of the Hebrew month of Kislev. This year Chanukah starts Wednesday Evening, December 25, 2024. Chanukah is a wonderful holiday of renewed dedication, faith, hope and spiritual light. It's a holiday that says: "Never lose hope." Chanukah commemorates the victory of a small band of Maccabees over the pagan Syrian-Greeks who ruled over Israel. The Chanukah Page includes lesson sites in several languages, videos, songs, Chanukah trivia quiz, English Hebrew vocabulary lists, recipes, games, humor, photos, clipart, coloring pages and a map of the sites of the Maccabees 166-161 BCE. The address is: jr.co.il/hotsites/chanukah.htm The Chanukah Video Page has links to over 1,250 cool Chanukah videos: jr.co.il/videos/chanukah-videos.htm The video page will be updated as we get closer to Chanukah. The Chanukah humor section has 130 items that will make you smile. jr.co.il/humor/chanuka.htm Enjoy! Please share these holiday resources. Thank You! Please continue to pray for and support Israel. jr.co.il/prayers/ May the wounded have a complete and speedy recovery. May the hostages be freed now. May God protect the IDF, the police, the security forces and all of Am Yisrael.
