A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
Three articles this week (#1,4,5) touch on the acquisition of prophecy.
The 3rd article is in honor of the the 6th Lubavitcher Rebbe, whose "Liberation Day" falls this week (Tammuz 12-13), while the 2nd is in honor of the Ohr HaChayim, whose yahrzeit is also this week (Tammuz 15). The 17th of Tammuz is the dawn-to-nightfall fast day commemorating the breaching of the walls of Jerusalem, leading to the destruction of the Holy Temple on the 9th of Av, three weeks later. This year it falls on Sunday, June 27. Dedication
MAZALTOV! to Yisrael Aryeh Leib Tilles, whose 10th birthday is on Wednesday this week (Tammuz 13)
