A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
We are now in the Three Weeks between fast days (see first articles 3,4, & 7), leading up to Tisha b'Av and
commemorating the destruction in the past of the Holy Temples in Jerusalem, but also looking to the future with rectifying and rebuilding.
There will be a double Torah Reading this Shabbat (articles 5 & 6) Rosh Chodesh Av is also the yahrzeit of Aharon the Kohen, the very first High Priest (see dedication below) The lead article about applying Kabbalah to character was supposed to be featured last week, in time for the yahrzeit of the Ramak. Dedication
Let us "Be of the disciples of Aaron [brother of Moses]:
loving peace and pursuing peace, loving the created beings, and bringing them closer to the Torah." (Avot 1:12)
