A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
Welcome to our special Shavuot issue
The first four articles and the story (#7) are about the holiday, from a variety of perspectives including a deep idea from the Zohar made accessible for our dear readers. The 5th article, also from the Zohar, reveals secrets about the special blessing of the Kohanim (the text of which is in this week's reading), which outside of Israel takes place only on the festivals.
