“As Hashem lives who brought the Israelites out of the northland, and out of all the lands to which He had banished them.” For I will bring them back to their land, which I gave to their fathers
Jeremiah 16:15 (The Israel Bible™)


Hear the verse in Hebrew

KEE im khai a-do-NAI a-SHER he-e-LAH et b’-NAY yis-ra-AYL may-E-retz tza-FON u-mi-KOL ha-a-ra-TZOT a-SHER hi-dee-KHAM SHA-mah va-ha-shi-vo-TEEM al ad-ma-TAM
a-SHER na-TA-tee la-a-vo-TAM

In this verse, Jeremiah offers an uplifting message of consolation, declaring that God will bring the Children of Israel back from captivity to their land. He declares that the salvation from the future exile will be so great that it will overshadow all past miracles. The future redemption will stand out since it will return the Nation of Israel to the land they had already inherited, occupied and enjoyed. This is a powerful message with great relevance in our generation: The miracle of the State of Israel and the extraordinary events we experience today are in fact greater than the exodus. Yesterday hundreds of thousands of children across the country returned to class to begin the 2019/2020 school year. These young ones and proof of the the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy as the Children of Israel are once again thriving in their ancestral homeland!

How should we view ourselves standing before G-d on Rosh Hashanah?

One of the descriptions the Talmud gives is:

Individuals pass before G-d as if they were on a very steep and narrow mountain pass where one must carefully walk single file.

The only way to traverse this narrow pass is by walking totally alone.

There is no room for anyone else.

On Rosh Hashanah, standing before God, there is only you.

There are no friends to hide behind, no society to get lost in, no excuses to rely on.

It’s the moment you need to confront who you really are.


Aish.

In 1915, the Jewish Battalions of the British Royal Fusiliers was formed, consisting of Jewish volunteers from America, England, and Israel. Their goal was to join the efforts of the British Army in World War I to liberate Israel from Turkish rule. The idea was first proposed by Zev Jabotinsky, and by 1919, some 5,000 Jewish volunteers were participating in the battalions.
