JUST DO IT - Every beginning is pregnant with opportunity!

“We have conquered every distance except one – the distance between human beings.” Address at Marble Arch Synagogue (Rabbi Dr. Jonathan Henry Sacks - עקב צבי ZT';LV. Because Judaism stands head and shoulders above every other philosophy of idea in the history of mankind. It was, it is and shall be thus. Forever. It is a covenant and also a conversation, seasoned with a forever-Love between Hashem and us, His beloved children and apple of his eye. שכן היהדות ניצבת ברום-מעלה מעל כל פילוסופיה או רעיון אחר בהיסטוריה האנושית. כך היה, כך הווה וכך יהיה – לעד. היא מהווה ברית וגם שיח, המתובלים באהבת-נצח השוררת בין ה' לבינינו – ילדיו האהובים, שהם כבבת עינו.

The Odyssey and Ellul- Christopher Nolan is my new Rabbi.

Christopher Nolan's adaptation of Homer's The Odyssey arrived July 17, 2026 — a $250M Universal Pictures epic starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, Zendaya as Athena, Tom Holland as Telemachus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, and Charlize Theron. This is the most star-studded cinematic event of the year, and Nolan's first mythology-driven project. What if I told you the whole idea of the Odyssey means a Jew returning home - whether to his own nature or to a creative inventive force of what he ought to be ? A transformation of the self , a growth of the soul. Two ideas of "returning home". Two ideas of Teshuva. Two complementary ideas of what it means to come home after the battle (not of Troy) but of Life - the ideas about coming home to who you are and who you are meant to be.

Menachem Begin - How the most badass Israeli PM was shaped by Soviet Torture (Part 1) ( Jewish Leadership Series)

PART 1/3 OF MENACHEM BEGIN'S LEGACY LEADERSHIP SERIES The most badass Israeli Prime-Minister who never bent a knee. BIRTHDAY: 16 AUGUST 2013 / Shabbat Nachmu - "Comfort, comfort our people" The protocol they put in front of him read priznaius vinovnim — "I confess I am guilty of having been chairman of Betar in Poland." Every word of it true and every word of it something he was proud of. Starving, eight months in, no lawyer, sentence already decided elsewhere — and he asked for one word changed. Not priznaius, "I confess," but priznaio, "I admit." One is the confession of a guilt; the other is the admission of a fact. He could hear it because Polish is close enough to Russian, and because he was a lawyer. The interrogator: you were chairman, so you are guilty. Begin: "To you, my having been a Zionist is my guilt." Then he turned it round and asked the man holding his file whether he wouldn't give his life for his own ideals — and got an answer: of course, at any moment, for the revolution. Then the abuse, the ape, the "I never want to see your face again" — and then the officer tore up the page and rewrote it with the other word. That was the oven that baked PM Menachem Begin who never bent a knee to anyone.

SPECIAL: Hodaya's 6th birthday - my 1st daughter born in Jerusalem, Israel

Hodaya's 6th birthday - my first daughter born in Jerusalem. Black letters inked against a white parchament (you letter to this ages). היום: יום הולדתה השישי של הודיה – בתי הבכורה שנולדה בירושלים – ומכתב גלוי, נלהב וחשוף-לב עד כאב, שכתב לה אבי, המופנה אליה ולכל ילד יהודי שנולד בארץ ישראל הזו.

My daughter, her horse with a broken leg, and Moses' denial to enter the Land of Israel.

How can a 6 year and her faith praying for a horse with a broken leg teach us on the value of communal prayer, and the restoring of our People of Israel - in the Land of Israel?

Oasis, the World Cup, England and Tish B'Av

Can Oasis (Noel Gallagher) help us to understand Tish B'aV? And hasten the building of the 3rd Temple in Jerusalem ? England's Rock and Roll will perhaps save the World. "There are many things that I would like to say to you but I do not know how" Tish B'Av 2026 ***The copyright of the picture cropped to produce this Avatar belong to*** Copyright: AFP or licensors Credit: AFP via: Getty Images Creator: ROBERTO SCHMIDT All rights are reserved by the abovementioned authors.
