Israel’s Mysterious 7 Watershed Moments

Please see my new article inΒ The Times of IsraelΒ called “Israel’s Mysterious 7 Watershed Moments.”
G-d works in mysterious ways, but occasionally He reveals Himself to us to impart His holiness and perfection to the world.

As we know, seven represents the miraculous days of G-d’s creation of the heavens and earth and his rest on the holy seventh day of Shabbat. Additionally, in Kabbalah, seven represents the number of lower sephirot, which are the divine manifestations or emanations of G-d present in this world.

We shall see that many of Israel’s watershed moments have happened over many decades in years ending in the number seven (7).

Beautiful Bonsai Tree

Something genius about a Bonsai tree.

The way it is on one hand natural and on the other hand “sculpted” by people. 

Sort of a metaphor for life, where G-d gives us the raw material and asks us to go do good with it.Β 

G-d creates and people shape that creation. 

Beautiful partnership makes a beautiful Bonsai! πŸ˜‰

Bicycle and Flowers

Why do flowers and bicycles go so well together?

Either way a beautiful display! 

G-d has made such an amazing world for us. 

And all our senses get to enjoy it. 

If you let yourself stop and experience it, your heart and soul can be uplifted with the joy of it all!  πŸ˜‰
