The Truth About Israel

In the beginning, G-d created the Heavens and the Earth

What is the reason the Torah begins with Creation? Because if the nations of the world say to Israel: "You are robbers because you have conquered with force the lands of the nations of Canaan" Israel can answer: "He created it and gave it to whomever was proper in His eyes. Of His own will He gave it to them and of His own will He took it from them and gave it to us."

-- Rashi on Genesis 1:1

TRUST IN G-D –
and you will have peace.

When the Jewish people will trust in G-d, that the Land of Israel belongs unequivocally to them, and are willing to declare this openly to the nations of the world, then “No one will contest the matter, and you will not need to go to war.” In fact, even weapons will prove unnecessary…” The Rebbe, (Likutei Sichos, vol. 34, p. 8)

Shabbos Candles

When a Jewish woman lights Shabbos Candles 18 minutes before sunset on Friday evening, she brings a special Divine light into her heart, her home and the world at large. This light helps to illuminate the darkness and confusion of exile.

Shabbos candles, in Hebrew, are known as "Neiros Shabbos Kodesh", the acronym of which is "Neshek" - meaning ammunition.
