A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
The lead article, about applying Kabbalah to character, perhaps should have been featured last week, in time for the yahrzeit of the Ramak.
Kabbalaonline-Shop is repeating its Triple Prayer Special Offer in time for the anniversary of the Ari's yahrzeit-hilula on 5 Menachem -Av [July 21, 2015]. According to one contemporary Jewish mystic, it is no coincidence that Twitter limits 'tweets' to 140 characters. [See article #2.] We are now deep into 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. Next is one each for the double Torah reading (#5-6), the first of which is from the Ohr HaChayim, as promised last week. Finally, Friday is Rosh Chodesh — see the story (#7). Dedication
In memory of Aharon HaKohen, elder brother of Moses and the very first High Priest, whose yahrzeit on Rosh Chodesh Menachem-Av is recorded in the Torah
and whom the sages describe as one who "loved peace and pursued peace," intervening with quarreling individuals and spouses to resolve their difficulties. |
