According to the legend, when God granted the seven species to the land of Israel each had a purpose. Wheat and barley provided sustenance. Fig and date provided sweetness. Olives gave oil for the holy lamp and grapes gave wine for kiddish and sanctification. But what of the pomegranate? It’s fruit is sweet but not as sweet as the fig. It’s juice gives life, but does not sustain like wheat. It’s not used in the Temple for any ritual or elevated as some sacrifice. What then is it’s purpose?
Sharing our community study today with Jewish educational partners I order to help them do their work better. Just another example how @jfedla is making a difference.
Some days are just truly special. Today, I was honored to join others in welcoming new Ethiopian emigres to #israel. To see their faces light up with excitement and joy as they came down from the plane was a true blessing. Through our global partnerships with the JDC and the Jewish Agency, Federations act as the part of the spinal column of the world Jewish community. I feel so honored and privileged to have witnessed this special moment. עם ישראל חי!

These are my people. Pistachio McFlurries for everyone!
Pinching myself that I have this office for the day. What a beautiful place with beautiful people. ארץ נהדרת! 🇮🇱
