Dear,
Monday this past week was the first day of the month of Kislev. We have rewritten the central article for Kislev on our website and a link can be found below.
On Sunday, the first day of Rosh Chodesh Kislev, Harav Ginsburgh visited the Gal Einai elementary school in Jerusalem. He discussed the essence of the month of Kislev with the children and encouraged them in their studies. One of the points that the Rav made was that the first day of Rosh Chodesh Kiselv, which is still the 30th day of Cheshvan serves as an intermediary between the two months. The letter of Cheshvan is נ (nun) and the letter of Kislev is ס (samech), thus on Sunday the two letters were unified forming the word "miracle" (נס).
This coming Sunday (Nov. 14th), Harav Ginsburgh will be lecturing at Ascent of Tzfat. Lectures will be broadcast live over the internet. See below for more information.

Wishing you a Shabbat Shalom,

| The spiritual essence of Kislev  The name Kislev derives from the Hebrew word kesel (כֶּסֶל), which means either "security," or "trust." There are two states of trust-one active and one passive-both of which manifest in the month of Kislev, which in the human body correspond to the right and left kidneys, respectively. In Hebrew, the word for kidney is also kesel (כֶּסֶל)....
When Jacob blessed Benjamin before his passing, he likened him to a wolf. Based on this blessing, Jacob is symbolized by a wolf. The wolf, representing craving and gulping down food without chewing (wolfing it down), symbolizes Benjamin's mundane craving for God and his ability to excite others about grabbing Divinity wherever and whenever it can be found. In the body, the kidneys are identified as the source of craving, and as noted earlier, one of the meanings of the name Kislev is kidneys. In addition, the kidney's are the seat of the sefirot victory and acknowledgment whose inner essence and motivating force are active and passive trust.

| Emet Lamed Picha: Educational Poster
 Called "Emet Lamed Picha," after the acronym formed by the filling of the first letter of the Hebrew alephbet, this poster (available in 3 sizes) teaches an educational acronym for the fillings of the 22 letters of the alphabet. The acronyms are inspired by the first acronym found in the ancient text, Otiyot Derabbi Akiva (Letters of Rabbi Akiva). Incredibly, just this week, we learnt that the acronym for the letter lamed appears in Sefer Chassidim!
The smaller sizes are perfect for a child's room and the larger size is meant for classrooms. The poster and its content can be appreciated as is. Additionaly, we plan on puting out a teacher/parent's guide that will be posted on our internet site with some of the deeper meanings behind the acronyms and their relationship with the letters they come from.
Click here to go to our webstore where you can see a larger image and order the poster in small, medium, or giant sizes. |
