A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
We are now in the Three Weeks between fast days (see article #3), leading up to Tisha b'Av, commemorating the destruction of the Holy Temples in Jerusalem.
Friday is the yahrzeit of Rabbi Moshe Cordevero—the RAMAK—author of several major Kabbalah texts and predecessor to the Holy Ari as leader of the Safed kabbalists (see article #4). Ever wonder about what Twitter is really all about? See our lead article! Dedication
For the soul elevation of Mrs Ella (bat Sarah-Yehudit) Tilles,
whose 16th yahrzeit falls on 22 Tammuz / Wednesday night-Thursday, July 11-12.
