A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
After the reading of Mishpatim this week, an additional section about the half-shekel is also read—see article #3.
Possible spiritual dimensions of a certain major cultural event in the world this Sunday are explained in article #2. The lead article touches on the 72-letter Divine name, a subject about which we are often asked. Dedication
for the soul elevation of Chana bat Asher Siev, on the occasion of her 9th yahrzeit on 18h Shevat (2/3/17)
and for the soul elevation of Chana bat Nachum-Eliyahu Tornek, on the occasion of her 5th yahrzeit on 17th Shevat (2/2/17) and for the soul elevation of Rabbi Shlomo-Yitzchak ben Moshe Schwartz, on the occasion of his FIRST yahrzeit on 12th Shevat (1/28/17) AND: in appreciation to those people who regularly come from far away and from very far away to join our Kabbbalistic Tu b'Shvat Seder |
