This Shabbat, known as the "Shabbos of Vision" because of its Haftorah, is always read on the Shabbat that precedesTisha b'Av. (lead article)
For the significance of Jerusalem in The Three Weeks and on Tisha b'Av, we are honored to have an article (#2) from Rabbi Steinsaltz z'l.
Articles #1 & 3 are for the weekly reading, Devarim, that starts the fifth and final book of the Five Books of Moses.
Saturday night begins the yahrzeit of the Holy Ari of Tzefat, the greatest of the 16th century Tzefat Kabbalists - see articles #2-4, 7.

Dedication
In memory of Aharon HaKohen, elder brother of Moses and the very first High Priest, whose date of passing [Rosh Chodesh Menachem-Av] is the only one recorded in the Torah (Masei. 33:38); AND
in honor of all the sincere students of the teachings of the Holy ARI and his successors, who are faithful in their attempts to understand and to explain the concepts according to the intentions with which they were recorded. |
