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.

Tunisia Continues to Welcome Pilgrims and Coexistence

Good afternoon!

Today's blog features a lovely article that states that Tunisia will continue to be a country open to pilgrimage and to the coexistence of religions. Celebrations and traditions organized every year on the 33 days after Passover occur at the ancient Ghriba synagogue in Tunisia. 

The article states, "One of the legends claims that the Ghriba synagogue dates back to the destruction of the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem, when some Jews fleeing Palestine took refuge in Djerba in 586 BC."

Profiles in Faith

Good afternoon! 

Today's blog features a profile piece out of Central Michigan University written by Ben Solis where one of their students, Hadley Platek recently experienced a once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage to her Jewish homeland. In the piece she recounts her experience and how her journey became a reality when she decided to attend her University and joined Hillel, the Jewish student's cultural group on campus that focuses on culture. 

Solis writes, "Explorations of faith have been a cornerstone of her life, Platek said. When she was a child, her family celebrated many different religious holidays. As she grew older, the exposure to different ideas and values helped solidify her faith in Judaism." 

At Abrams Travel, we love reading stories about young people taking the initiative to explore deeper into their faith. To read the full article, please click HERE
