As We Prepare to Welcome Adar…
Last Thursday, explosives destroyed three buses in Israel – empty ones. Yesterday, Nael Obeid, a notorious Hamas terrorist who was freed in a hostage exchange, fell to his death in East Jerusalem. As we prepare to welcome Adar, we pray for Hashem’s continued protection.
