Tomorrow, Friday is the 28th day of the Hebrew month of Nisan. It is the day when the walls of Jericho miraculously fell after being surrounded by Joshua and the Israelites for 7 days.

At first I really didn’t like the new Facebook timeline style pages. But today I took a few minutes to play around with it and I am beginning to really like it. Take a look at the new design for my facebook page. I just started the page a few days ago, and would be […]
Tonight is the last night of Pesach. It will be nice to have two days to rest from a busy week of hikes and tours. Here is a picture I took last Pesach with my cellphone camera while hiking the Nahal Tekoa (also known as Wadi Tekoa). Chag Sameach!
Yesterday I did a Dead Sea tour. On the way to Ein Gedi, we passed Qumran and I spent some time speaking to my guests about the Dead Sea Scrolls that were discovered there. Today I found out that Google has added a really great feature to their Digital Dead Sea Scrolls Project. If you’re not […]

Today’s Israel picture of the day is from the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. If you haven’t been to the Israel Museum you are really missing out! It has a wealth of artifacts from all periods in Israel, starting from prehistoric times to the present. One of the highlights is the giant scale model of Jerusalem […]
The Temple Institute is awesome I love the Temple Institute! As a Chabad Chassid, I very much identify with their passion for dealing with matters related to Moshiach and the Beit HaMikdash (even though we have some differences in philosophy on some of the finer points). But I love them even more as a tour […]
