This Washington Post horrible title tells the whole story. The murder of the 12 lovely children in northern Golan by Hezbollah/Lebanon is undeniable. It is not "an innocent" mistake. The purpose was to make the Israeli response look unprofessional. America, Israel needs you today. We didn't start this war, not with Gaza and not with Lebanon.

Yesterday, a man and a woman were murdered in the center of the Golan Heights. Noa and Nir Burns, from Moshav Ortal, parents of three children, were driving near their home when a rocket fired by the Hezbollah terrorist organization, which controls the country of Lebanon, hit them and burned their vehicle. May them rest in peace. Please remember that Israel did not start this war.

What would a war in the North look like, and what do I think about it and three optimistic points following the current war.

Shabbat Shalom to all. After more than thirty hours, we managed, with the help of the Golan fire brigade, to put out all the fires that threatened Moshav Aniam. As mentioned, the beautiful nature reserve around us has suffered heavy damage. I am now sitting down for Shabbat dinner with Maya and the children. Thank you all so much for your prayers, help, and concern. Eran.

I'm going to bed after a long and sad day. Pastures and a nature reserve that I particularly love burned today. The fires started following a barrage of 200 rockets from Lebanon. At night, it is not possible to put out the fire. The winds have calmed down, and the firefighters are finally trying to create a backfire to stop the fire from spreading. The firefighters promised to wake me up if the situation worsened. Good night; thank you all for your prayers and thoughts.

This story, especially at this time, brought me to tears. Last Thursday, the writing of a new Torah scroll was finished and brought with a big celebration to the youth synagogue in Givat Shmuel. The Torah was donated by Aliza, my grandmother's sister, in the name of her husband Yosef Fogel, who died a year ago, and in the name of his parents and brother, who perished in Auschwitz.

At the beginning of World War II, Yosef and his older brother were sent to forced labor camps under extremely difficult conditions. In May 1944, the N***s sent the Hungarian Jews to Auschwitz, including his parents and younger brother, and murdered them; After the war, Yosef immigrated to Israel illegally; the British captured the ship and placed the survivors in a detention camp on the island of Cyprus. During his stay in the camp, Yosef was recruited into the Hebrew fighting force [Palmah] and trained there in secret. After the British left Palestine and the Jews announced the establishment of the State of Israel, Yosef arrived in the Promised Land to fight in a bloody war. He fought in the difficult battles of Letron against the Jordanian Legion. Later, he fought at the Negev against the Egyptians and was one of the liberators of Beer Sheva.

In 1953, Israel and Germany signed the Reparations Agreement, and Yosef was given a small stipend due to his years of slave labor and the murder of his parents and siblings by the N***s. Although he refused to receive the money, the Germans deposited it into a bank account. When he passed away about a year ago, his wife discovered this bank account that Yosef never used. Aliza decided to dedicate the German money to pay for the writing of a new beautiful Torah book with a silver crown, and today, his grandchildren and their sons pray in this synagogue and read it every Shabbat and Moe'd.

After a long time without a family vacation, my wife's parents invited us to a pampering vacation in Eilat. After a day of traveling there, we spent four days in the mountains of Eilat and the stunning Red Sea. We swam and snorkeled often, ate fine food, rested, had fun, and returned home with renewed energy.

Happy Shavuot from the Golan! Today, we finished our first wheat harvest; we grew ancient EMMER wheat [and many thorns] just like in ancient times. The locust struck in droves this year and ate half of our crop. But we brought the first fruits of wheat [pictured], and we are beginning to understand the meaning of [Genesis 3, 18 - 19]

thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you;
and you shall eat the plants of the field.
By the sweat of your face
you shall eat bread,

May we win victory over our enemy, and may our soldiers and captives return soon in peace. May He who makes peace in the heavens grant peace to us and all our people with all the earth's inhabitants.; and let us say, Amen.

Happy Nissan! Happy new Jewish year.

(And I wish I could see the total eclipse)

29/03/2024

Family Shabbat dinner. We had a great evening, but our happiness is far from complete. Praying for the safe return of our brothers and sisters, remembering you all the time, and committed to bringing you back. Remembering the murdered, we will not forget or forgive.

An exciting greeting from the Synagogue of Jesus! Presented to the public for the first time - a black basalt stone engraved with a seven-branched menorah that was [with a very high probability] part of the synagogue of Capernaum in the first century AD,

This is THE synagogue of Jesus. Capernaum was the city of Jesus, Matthew 9, 1, Mark 2, 1], and in this synagogue, He taught regularly. In this synagogue, Jesus cast out the unclean spirit on the Sabbath day [Mark 1, 1 - 28]. In this synagogue, Jesus taught, "I am the bread of life" [John 6:22-59]. It is exciting to think that this menorah witnessed these events. Happy Easter!

Yesterday, during a study tour in Kfar Nahum (Capernaum), we received permission to go through the locked gate. I took the opportunity to tour the houses of the ancient village, the city of Jesus, and take a video for you. Thanks to Jessica Harani for the excellent tour.

Happy Purim! And Happy palm Sunday! Maya and the kids made all the "Gifts of food..."
..that they should make them days of feasting and gladness, days for sending gifts of food to one another and gifts to the poor. (Ester 9, 22).

The vernal equinox occurs on the night between March 20 and March 21. In ancient times, the vernal equinox was the first day of the biblical year [Exodus 12:2]. May a good and blessed new year be renewed for us, and may our captives be released in peace.

On Saturday, we walked to my favorite site at Galilee, which you have never visited. Because of the strain climb, very few are visiting this significant place. It is 10 miles from Capernaum to the east, and you can see the ancient synagogue where Jesus probably (99%) preached and taught.

We took our Texan friends for a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. It was just before Friday sunset after a good rain. Shabbat Shalom.

15/03/2024

Say hello to my friends from Texas. This is the second time they have visited us since the 07.10 and bring essential equipment with them. This time they brought 300 pairs of tactical uniforms and tactical gloves for the soldiers in the alert squads in the Golan Heights. Thank you!

"Good Deeds Day". The kindergarten children made cookies for us and visited us during the guard.

Update: March 2024, we are all feeling good, thank God. Spring is already here. What will happen in the north of Israel shortly? -

My family and I feel well, thank God, and the situation is quiet but tense here in the Golan Heights. We had a winter blessed with rains; the streams flowed, the water reservoirs, and the Sea of Galilee are full to overflowing. Nature around us is greener and more beautiful than ever. Carpets of flo...

Maya Katav made excellent food yesterday, as always. Cabbage leaves rolled with meat and burghul, eggplant rolls, and caraway soup. So good. Shabbat Shalom.

We planted ten new ancient vines ("Roman vine") in our Garden. I was meditating on Amos 9 and thinking about how blessed we are.
14 I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel,
and h they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them;
i they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine,
and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit.
15 I will plant them on their land,
k and they shall never again be uprooted
out of the land l that I have given them,”
says the LORD your God.

We hang the American flag next to Israel outside our home. Our people stand together. Shabbat Shalom Ya'll.
Thank you, Mrs. Joanne Bingham, from KY, for sending us these excellent flags...

Today is Rosh Chodesh Shvat (the first day of Jewish month Shvat). Here are some pictures from our garden. May we all have a good and blessed Shvat.

Basic self-help course, three days of training in total. Hope we never need this. Recommended for everyone. This is what I did on New Year's Eve... 😃
