Why the Western Wall is the Holiest in Judaism

Good morning!

Today's blog features an interesting article written by Allan Ross that brings to light why the Western Wall is the holiest site in all of Judaism. Ross explains, "Called the “Kotel” in Hebrew, the Western Wall is actually part of the huge, outer retaining wall for the Temple Mount area where the First Jewish Temple (The Temple of Solomon) was built in 957 BCE and destroyed in 586 BCE, and where the Second Jewish Temple was built by King Herod in 20 BC." 

This site became the holiest in Judaism because of its closeness to the actual Temples,  and especially where the First Temple housed the Ten Commandments inside the Ark of the Covenant.

Healing at the Shavuot

Good afternoon!

Today's blog highlights a recently published article that truly hits home in light of the recent Manchester attack. Irene Lancaster compassionately writes, "Shavuot is the festival which marks the giving of the Torah (613 commandments) to the Jewish people. The festival is a celebration of women. The Torah itself is regarded as female in Jewish thought. The Torah is tough yet compassionate. And because of this the Torah was given to women first." 

Lancaster writes this article as a reflection of the recent Manchester attack at an event that that was occupied predominately by women and children. Lancaster also goes on to discuss one of Judaism's ultimate pilgrim, Ruth, and how her values can be looked up to today in spite of the current world we live in.
