| Guest Weekly Teaching by Cantor Asa Fradkin The Jewish people have many comfort foods: matzo ball soup, corned beef on rye -- or on the Israeli side of things: hummus, falafel, shwarma, tea with nana (mint) leaves. These foods make us feel warm and sustained, and they fairly ooze with nostalgia. To a degree, they are part of our Jewish make-up. But in Israel there is something far more crucial to hold on to than the gifts of the earth, and that is the earth itself. Israel is a country that - by itself - produces all of the same feelings as our classic Jewish comfort... Click here to see the full version of this teaching. |
