President of European Parliament Promises to Fight Antisemitism An unprecedented event took place in the Knesset plenum: the president of the European parliament, Roberta Metsola, addressed the Knesset this past Monday on the occasion of her first official visit outside of the countries of the European Union since her appointment to the post this past January, which was to Israel. She opened her speech noting that "this is my first visit, but surely not the last. I wanted to come early, at the beginning of my tenure, and express a message of our desire to link together and to state the obligation of the European parliament to forge relations between us and to let you feel that the European Union and Israel are strong partners beyond history."
This demand is in light of the serious lack of burial sites for Jerusalem residents. In an emergency meeting which took place at the Degel HaTorah headquarters in Jerusalem, called for by the rabbinical committee of the movement and with the participation of representatives of HaRav Edelstein:, HaRav Palay, HaRav Moshe Gura and other members of the party in the Jerusalem municipality, it was agreed to ask Mayor Moshe Leon to do all in his power in dealing with the pertinent authorities to find a permanent solution in apportioning lands for a conventional burial, known in Hebrew as kevurat sadeh, literally "field burial," so that every citizen could avail himself of what has always been the practice and tradition for Jewry throughout the ages.
The Principles of Israeli Politicians Truth be told, there is nothing to complain about MK Ghaida Rinawie Zoabi. She is a woman of "principles," prepared to fight for them but she has also has good mentors. She recently announced that she was leaving the government coalition because of her principles, but she changed her mind after a few days. In the Coalition of which she is a member, she sits with others who made supposedly immutable announcements and promises. They established their principles before the elections and were elected to the Knesset on the basis of what they promised. One of them, Naftali Bennett, even succeeded in extorting from his companions the most coveted office of Prime Minister. He had promised the public that he would not sit with the Left, meaning not with Meretz, and surely that meant he would not sit together with Arab lists. He declared that he would never let Yair Lapid become prime minister. That's what he promised to his voters.
The Journey From Leil Haseder To Kabolas HaTorah A Shmuess Delivered By HaRav Shlomo Brevda on Chol Hamoed Pesach 5753 At Beis Haknesses "Tiferes Shlomo", Har-Nof, Yerushalayim. We first published it the same year. HaRav Brevda zt"l reviewed it before publication. Part II The first part explained the importance of approaching tefillah as an oni, a pauper, one who feels that he has nothing and needs everything and begs Hashem for all his needs. Second Step: Anava, Tefillah and Torah In the first perek of Brochos the gemara says, "Whoever fixes a place for his tefillah, the G-d of Avrohom will come to his aid. When he passes away he will be eulogized in these terms: `Where is the chossid? Where is the anav? A disciple of Avrohom Ovinu.'"
