It may already be too late for American Jewry, but uniting the Jews above all the disagreements is still the only thing that can save them from a catastrophe that is now vividly in the horizon. For more than a…
Much more than hearts and flowers! Discover the unconditional love symbolized by Tu B’Av and how it can elevate the world. In modern-day Israel, Tu b’Av (the 15th of Av) has become a feel-good day, mostly characterized by spouses buying chocolate and…
