A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
ELUL, the concluding month of the Jewish year (see articles #2 and #3); starts on Wednesday night. From then we will be 30 days until Rosh HaShana and 40 to Yom Kippur!
Articles #4-7 provide a variety of mystical insights into different topics featured in the weekly Torah reading, Shoftim. Dedication
for the soul elevations of my paternal grandmother and my maternal grandfather:
Golda bas Moshe and Eliyahu ben Alexander HaLevi, whose yahrzeits fall this week on Erev Rosh Chodesh and 2nd day Rosh Chodesh -- Wednesday and Friday -- respectively. |
