A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
Welcome to our special PURIM issue! :)
This year the festival falls on Wed. night-Thursday (except in Jerusalem, where it is Thurs. night-Friday) In addition to being so much fun, PURIM is also quite fascinating. The first five articles all examine some of the many striking points of interest, including a special translation and analysis (#4) of an inspiring teaching by the 16th century Tzefat kabbalist, Rabbi Avraham Galante Plus, one article (#6) on the weekly reading, and finally (#7), a wild Purim story.
