Upon your walls, O Yerushalayim, I have set watchmen, Who shall never be silent By day or by night. O you, Hashem‘s remembrancers Take no rest
Isaiah 62:6 (The Israel Bible™)

Hear the verse in Hebrew

al kho-mo-TA-yikh y’-ru-sha-LA-im hif-KAD-tee sho-m’-REEM kol ha-YOM v’-khol
ha-LAI-lah ta-MEED lo ye-khe-SHU ha-maz-ki-REEM et a-do-NAI al do-MEE la-KHEM

We are the guardians
If the watchmen are upon the walls all day and all night, then why is the superfluous word tamid () ‘always,’ included in this verse? 20th century American Rabbi David Stavsky explains in his book of sermons: “Tamid, ‘always,’ refers to speaking up about Yerushalayim. Never should we remain silent when Yerushalayim is threatened. We are not to remain quiet and passive. We are the guardians…. Therefore, Yerushalayim never can become a bargaining chip in achieving peace. Not the Vatican, not Washington, not Hamas, not Hezbollah, not any Arab fundamentalist or terrorist can dictate terms. Threats of Jihad should not make us waiver. Yerushalayim is finally ours, and we are the watchmen tamid, always.

Who is this guy?

(COMMENT)

This guy should get some kind of an award. I'm 66 years old. His presentations even impress me. And he makes Israel look like just the right kind of country anyone would want to live in.

I've been to places like Amman, Baghdad, Cairo, Dubai, Kabul, Mombasa, and Sanaa (and two-thirds of Europe). But of all the places I missed and should have gone is → Israel. This guy makes it sound very enticing!

What is his name?

Most Respectfully,

From the Sh*t, Aren’t We Supposed to Be A Smart People department:

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s health had declined over the past year and his doctors feared for his life, but thanks to secret treatment by a specialist from Israel, his condition improved significantly.

On May 20, 2018, Abbas was hospitalized for the second time over a 24 hour period at the Istishari Arab Hospital in Ramallah with pneumonia, a complication of a severe ear infection he had suffered from. Doctors feared the 83-year-old Palestinian leader would suffer a complete systems failure.

While the Palestinian Authority did all it could to mislead the public and the media about Abbas’s real condition, Israel learned of his rapidly deteriorating condition and decided to offer the Palestinians to treat Abbas at an Israeli hospital, where he could receive the most advanced medical care.

While the Palestinians decided to politely reject the offer, fearing such a move would be met with harsh criticism from the Palestinian public, Palestinian officials expressed their gratitude nevertheless.

Israel, in turn, decided to send a specialist to Ramallah, who joined the team of foreign doctors already treating the PA leader in an effort to stabilize his condition. After two days of intensive care, the Palestinian leader got better, and a week later he was discharged from the hospital.

Seriously. Did we also provide Abbas with his antisemitic reading material in hospital?

A song of ascents. In my distress I called to Hashem and He answered me.
Psalms 120:1 (The Israel Bible™)

Hear the verse in Hebrew

SHEER ha-ma-a-LOT el a-do-NAI ba-tza-RA-tah LEE ka-RA-tee va-ya-a-NAY-nee

Ascending to the greatest heights
What is the meaning the Hebrew word maalot (מעלות), translated here as ‘ascents,’ which appears in the opening phrases of the next fifteen psalms? According to Rashi, it is a reference to the fifteen steps in the Beit Hamikdash upon which the Leviim stood while reciting these fifteen psalms. Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch explains the ascent in a spiritual way. He understands it to mean that from our low spiritual depths, we call, pray, and sing to Hashem to lift us up, or to give us the ability to ascend to the greatest heights. According to this interpretation, one can see a clear reflection of this in the beginning of Psalm 130: “Out of the depths I call You, Hashem.” Other commentators suggest that these Tehillim were sung by those who returned to Eretz Yisrael from the Babylonian exile in the times of Ezra, upon their ascent to the Holy Land, as reflected in Psalm 126:1 “A Song of Ascents. when Hashem restores the fortunes of Tzion…” Travelling to the Land of Israel is always considered an ascent, as the verse in Ezra 7:9 says: “On the first day of the first month, the journey up from Babylon was started.” Even today, moving to Israel is referred to as making aliyah, i.e, ‘ascending’ to live in the Land of Israel.
