Portion 535 AM Israel warnings went off as missiles approached Haifa
The radio announced the warnings as I was lustening to a Talmud class beginning a new tractate
The previous tractate ended today with Rabbi Akiva
Telling his comrades - standing on the destroyed
Temlle Mount-
Just as prophecies of doom have been fulfilled
So to will be fulfilled
The prophecies of the people of Israel returning!
Idependence Day Wednesday night prayer
I was with many hundreds of young people
Singing Halel
Thursday morning I prayed with a few hundred at shul
With my 94 year old Kohain friend -
And after there was
Kiddush sponsored in honor of an old acquaintance
Who just had a great grandson
Many Blessings
Rabbi Andy Eichenholz
