[ha-Safran] Free online: Sermons The Year 'Round by Rabbi Bernard L. Berzon

2024-01-28 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

I grew up in Brooklyn, New York. 
During my high school years and college years (72-80) 
I lived at home and attended the shul Ahavath Israel 
on East 29 and Avenue K in Brooklyn.

The sermons that Rabbi Berzon z"l gave where very good. 
He would talk to you as opposed to above you. His love 
for Israel and the Jewish people was very evident in 
the words he spoke.

Over 45 years ago, Rabbi Berzon gave my father z"l 
a copy of his book. Even though times have changed, 
since the book was published 46 years ago, the messages, 
anecdotes, and stories are still very enjoyable. 
I felt that many people that otherwise would not have

Hebrew month of Shvat, January 25 this year - 5784/ 2024.
This Jewish mini-holiday is of major importance to our
appreciation of nature and our relationship to it.

the land of Israel to mark the occasion. 
Many people in Israel and all over the world will participate in

[ha-Safran] Educational and Fun Resources for Tu B'Shvat

Hi Everyone!

Tu B'Shvat, the New Year for Trees, falls on the 15th of the
Hebrew month of Shvat, January 25 this year - 5784/ 2024.
This Jewish mini-holiday is of major importance to our
appreciation of nature and our relationship to it.
It is customary to plant trees and partake of the fruits of
the land of Israel to mark the occasion. 
Many people in Israel and all over the world will participate in 
eating fruits at a Tu B'shvat Seder.

The Jewish Trivia Quiz: Tu B'Shvat
jewish-trivia.com

Which fruit is used to make wine ?
When did Kabbalists originate the Tu B'shvat Seder ?
How many glasses of wine are drunk at the Tu B'Shvat seder ?
What branch of a tree did the dove bring back after the flood ?
How many days does the Hebrew month of Shvat have ?
What is associated with both Chanukah and Tu B'Shvat ?
In Israel, what happens to trees starting on the 15th of Shvat ?
Since 1901, how many trees has the Jewish National Fund
planted in Israel ?
According to the Torah, which fruits did the spies bring to the
children of Israel in the wilderness ?

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice
quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings.
Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable.

[ha-Safran] Educational resources, videos and humor about Chanukah

2023-11-13 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

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 
Thursday evening, December 7, 2023.

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 1,200 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.

Have a Good Month - Kislev!

I found on Youtube two videos of the olim arriving.

[ha-Safran] Educational Resources about Tisha B'Av

2023-07-23 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Shalom.

Tisha B'Av is the saddest day on the Jewish calendar because
of the incredible series of tragedies which occurred on that
date throughout Jewish History.

Tisha B'Av means "the ninth of the Hebrew month of Av".
Tisha B'Av primarily commemorates the destruction of the first
and second Temples, both of which were destroyed on the ninth
of Av - the first by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.E.; the second
by the Romans in 70 C.E.

Although this day is primarily meant to commemorate the
destruction of the Temple, it is appropriate to consider on
this day the many other tragedies of the Jewish people, many
of which occurred on this day, most notably the expulsion of
the Jews from Spain in 1492.

This year 5783 - 2023 we observe the fast day of Tisha B'Av
starting from Wednesday after nightfall, July 26,
until nightfall on Thursday, July 27.

You can learn more about this Jewish fast day at:
jr.co.il/hotsites/tisha-b-av.htm

May we see the rebuilding of the Temple in our days and that
Tisha B'Av becomes a day of celebration.

If you are fasting:
Have a meaningful fast.

Shavua Tov,
Jacob Richman
jrichman @ jr.co.il

[ha-Safran] 47th Anniversary of Mivtsa Yonatan, Flora Photos and Happy Birthday America

2023-06-27 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

On June 27 1976, an Air France flight from Tel-Aviv to Paris via Athens
was hijacked and forced to land in Entebbe, Uganda.
The Jewish passengers were separated and held hostage in demand
to release many terrorists held in Israeli prisons.
After much debate, the Israeli government sent an elite commando unit
to raid the airfield and release the hostages. The commando unit,
aircraft crews and the rescued hostages landed in Israel on July 4, 1976.
Yonatan Netanyahu, the commander of the first aircraft´s Sayeret Matkal rescue 
unit,
was shot and killed while helping hostages return to the aircraft.

"Operation Entebbe" was later named "Operation Yonatan" in honor
of Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Netanyahu z"l.

I created a page with images, newspaper headlines, videos 
and articles about the historic Israeli rescue.
jr.co.il/mivtsa-yonatan.htm

May the memory of Yoni Netanyahu be for a blessing,

Today, I took a long walk in Ma'ale Adumim
and took photos of flora. I posted them at:

Hi Everyone!

Tu B'Shvat, the New Year for Trees, falls on the 15th of the
Hebrew month of Shvat, Monday - February 6 this year - 5783 / 2023.
This Jewish mini-holiday is of major importance to our
appreciation of nature and our relationship to it.
It is customary to plant trees and partake of the fruits of
the land of Israel to mark the occasion. 
Many people in Israel and all over the world will participate in 
eating fruits at a Tu B'shvat Seder.

The Jewish Trivia Quiz: Tu B'Shvat
jewish-trivia.com

Which fruit is used to make wine ?
When did Kabbalists originate the Tu B'shvat Seder ?
How many glasses of wine are drunk at the Tu B'Shvat seder ?
What branch of a tree did the dove bring back after the flood ?
How many days does the Hebrew month of Shvat have ?
What is associated with both Chanukah and Tu B'Shvat ?
In Israel, what happens to trees starting on the 15th of Shvat ?
Since 1901, how many trees has the Jewish National Fund
planted in Israel ?
According to the Torah, which fruits did the spies bring to the
children of Israel in the wilderness ?

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice
quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings.
Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable.

[ha-Safran] Educational Resources for International Holocaust Remembrance Day

2023-01-22 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Shalom.

International Holocaust Remembrance Day is January 27.

On my website, there are 170+ links to learn about the Holocaust.
Site languages include English, Hebrew, French, German,
Italian, Russian, and Spanish.
jr.co.il/hotsites/holocaust.htm

Since I created the page in 1997, I have been updating it
at least 2 times a year: before International Holocaust 
Remembrance Day - January 27 and before 
Yom HaShoah - this year on April 18, 2023.
If a site is no longer online, I try to find an archive copy of
the site in archive.org.

Over 20 years ago, in September 2003, IAF jets flew over Auschwitz
to commemorate holocaust victims. Images and a video of the
event are posted at:
jr.co.il/pictures/israel/history/f15-jets-over-auschwitz.htm

Please share this message. Thank you.

We must not forget.

[ha-Safran] Only in Israel - Learn Hebrew Words from Milk Cartons

2022-12-27 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Israel marks Hebrew Language Day every year on the birthday of 
Eliezer Ben Yehuda, the father of modern spoken Hebrew. 
This year, the Hebrew date - 21st of Tevet, falls on January 12, 2023.

In Honor of Hebrew Language Day, The Academy of the Hebrew Language,
together with Tnuva, printed Hebrew word quizzes on the side of milk  cartons.

I went to local supermarkets and took photos of the milk cartons and
I posted them online at:
jr.co.il/only-in-israel/learning-hebrew-words-from-milk-cartons.htm

Additional photos may be added before Hebrew Language Day.

Enjoy the photos!

[ha-Safran] 2, 200-year-old Coin Hoard Gives Hard Proof of Book of Maccabees - Article + Videos

2022-12-13 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Archaeologists have uncovered a cache of 2,200-year-old silver coins 
near the Dead Sea, which they say is the first physical proof that Jews 
fled to the Judean Desert during the upheaval and persecution under 
Hanukkah villain Antiochus IV Epiphanes.

I posted the article, images and videos of the Israel Antiquities Authority
announcement at:
jr.co.il/only-in-israel/2200-year-old-coin-hoard.htm

Chanukah starts this Sunday night, December 18.
I updated the Chanukah links at:
jr.co.il/hotsites/chanukah.htm

I added many new videos to the 1,100+ Chanukah video list at:

Additional videos will be added this week.

2022-08-22 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
KKL-JNF launches live birdwatching feeds at Lake Hula   

Full article at: bit.ly/live-cameras-hula-lake

The Hula Valley is a major stopover for birds  migrating  between Africa, 
Europe and Asia  
through the Syrian-African Rift Valley.

Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael-Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF)  announced on Sunday 
that it 
has begun a birdwatching project  for the benefit of nature lovers and 
birdwatchers of all  
experience levels.The project uses a network of eight HD cameras and  
complex 
electric infrastructure including fiber optics  and wireless communications 
systems 
at Lake Hula  in northern Israel's Hula Valley.

I added links to each of the 8 cameras at:  
jr.co.il/links/#live-cameras-hula  

Enjoy!

Have a good night,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Educational Resources about Tisha B'Av

2022-07-27 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Shalom.

Tisha B'Av is the saddest day on the Jewish calendar because
of the incredible series of tragedies which occurred on that
date throughout Jewish History.

Tisha B'Av means "the ninth of the Hebrew month of Av".
Tisha B'Av primarily commemorates the destruction of the first
and second Temples, both of which were destroyed on the ninth
of Av - the first by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.E.; the second
by the Romans in 70 C.E.

Although this day is primarily meant to commemorate the
destruction of the Temple, it is appropriate to consider on
this day the many other tragedies of the Jewish people, many
of which occurred on this day, most notably the expulsion of
the Jews from Spain in 1492.

This year 5782 - 2022 we observe the fast day of Tisha B'Av
starting from Saturday after nightfall, August 6,
until nightfall on Sunday August 7.
You can learn more about this Jewish fast day at:
jr.co.il/hotsites/tisha-b-av.htm

May we see the rebuilding of the Temple in our days and that
Tisha B'Av becomes a day of celebration.

If you are fasting:
Have a meaningful fast.
