A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
Welcome to our special PURIM 5780 issue.
The first four articles and the story (#7) are for the joyous holiday on Monday night-Tuesday...and Wednesday in Jerusalem. This week's Torah portion,Ki Tisa, contains two pivotal events in the relationship between the Almighty and the Jewish people: the sin of the Golden Calf (see article #5) and subsequently gaining forgiveness for that sin (#6). Happy Purim! Dedication
