Gematriot - Revealing Torah Secrets

Gematriot - Revealing Torah Secrets: " This is especially so with this Erev Rosh Chodesh Elul, as the month of Elul itself is a month that we prepare ourselves spiritually, improving ourselves by making sure we do all the Mitzvot/commandments that we are supposed to observe and behaving better in our characteristic traits, before the High Holidays when we are annually judged by Hashem.

Historically, today's date of 29 Av was the day in between Moses' second 40 day period on Mt. Sinai asking Hashem for forgiveness for the Jews' participation in the worship of the Golden Calf and the third 40 day period on Mt. Sinai when Hashem rewrote the Ten Commandments on the tablets that Moses brought up with him, culminating with Yom Kippur when Hashem announced his formal forgiveness for the Jews. Similarly, today is a time to reflect on our past which may include sins and telling Hashem that we are sorry, and thinking of our future working on concrete steps to help prevent spiritual mishaps from reoccurring and finding ways to improve our lives spiritually, showing that while we may have failings here and there, in essence, we "

Hurricane Irene and My Need for Control

Hurricane Irene and My Need for Control: "We are not in control.

But after the initial discomfort of that reality set in, I had another feeling.

I realized that, in fact, I was in control. Not of traffic, the future of my children, the financial markets or the environment, but I was in control of myself.

I was in control over how I responded to challenge. Would I be stressed or show strength? Would I spend the time doing something meaningful? Would I get frustrated and angry at the loss of property or convenience or would I be satisfied with what I had? Would I start to appreciate the “little” things like electricity and dry roads?

How Irene Lived Up to the Hype - NYTimes.com: "o hurricanes receive too much media coverage? Are they more or less newsworthy than airplane crashes? The avian flu? The iPhone 5? Shark attacks? The Dominique Strauss-Kahn case? The Libyan civil war? The royal wedding? Global warming? Anthony Weiner? The Dallas Cowboys?

I don’t know. What’s easier to evaluate is how much coverage Hurricane Irene received in comparison with other hurricanes. By that standard, the coverage was quite proportionate to the amount of death and destruction that the storm caused."

I am not speaking about the new movements such as conservative or reform, no I am speaking of diversity within orthodoxy which explains why the orthodox neighborhoods have so many different shuls and ways that services are conducted."

Foundation Stone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Foundation Stone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "if the Southern Wall of the Temple Mount is in fact the one which existed when the Temple was standing, the measurements given in the Talmud do not reconcile.[6] The Holy of Holies ends up being too far north and they therefore locate the Foundation Stone as being directly opposite the current exposed section of the Western Wall, where no building currently stands. This is the view of the Arizal[7] and the Maharsha,[8] who state the prophesy that “Zion will become a ploughed field” indicates that no dwelling will be established there until the time of the redemption."

Foundation Stone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Foundation Stone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Rabbi Obadiah ben Abraham who wrote a letter from Jerusalem in 1488 says that “I sought the place of the Foundation Stone where the Ark of the Covenant was placed, and many people told me it is under a tall and beautiful dome which the Arabs built in the Temple precinct'.[5]
Others disagree, citing that if the Southern Wall of the Temple Mount is in fact the one which existed when the Temple was standing, the measurements given in the Talmud do not reconcile.[6]"

FrumFind.org: "Perhaps the most unkind thing that one fellow Jew can do to his brother, be they fallen or elevated, on the straight path or a an endlessly winding path is simply to disregard that other person. If you are Jewish and care about doing the right thing, or accomplishing a goal, dream or vision, if you follow the path of our Torah, or perhaps have not even yet chosen this lifestyle for yourself, yet you have an interest, then perhaps you should take a moment, complete  the signup, and join this “eGroupWeb.com” the place to stay in touch, and simply see where it takes you."

Arizal.org

Arizal.org: "Though he initially may have pursued a career in business, he soon turned to asceticism and mysticism.  About the age of twenty-two, he became engrossed in the study of the Zohar, a major work of the Kabbalah that had recently been printed for the first time, and he adopted the life of a recluse.  He retreated to the banks of the Nile, and for seven years secluded himself in an isolated cottage, giving himself up entirely to meditation.  He visited his family only on the Shabbat, speaking very seldom, and always in Hebrew."

Moshiach Or Messiah Who has the True Prophesy?

Jews For Jesus Founder Debates Rabbi Tovia Singer

Jews For Jesus Founder Debates Rabbi Tovia Singer: "hen Jesus came and he was very meek and he talked about loving your enemy and turning your cheek, they said “No, no, no, no, this is not the Messiah we were looking for” and they missed the boat. That’s all there is to it. The poor Jews, they missed the boat. Jump on the Jesus train they didn’t. Rabbi who I have great respect for explained “Well, it’s not quite like that. According to the Torah, according to us the Jews, the Messiah was never supposed to be the son of God."
