A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
We continue the Three Weeks between fast days (see articles #3-4) leading up to Tisha b'Av, commemorating the destruction of the Holy Temples in Jerusalem.
The last three articles are for the double weekly reading, — from the Mattot, from Maasai, and the story, which is highly relevant to both this week's Reading, Maasai, and next week's, Devorim. Dedication
In memory of the eminent 16th century Tzefat Kabbalist and scholar, Rabbi Moshe Cordovero ("the RAMAK" -- see the first two articles), whose yahrzeit-hilulah is this Wednesday, the 23rd day of the Jewish month of Tammuz (a unique month -- see article #4)
