Unit 18 Part 1 Here is the Lake of Galilee. Beautiful! We reached a crossroad. From here to the north, you drive to Tiberias. To the west you drive to the old colonies, and the Shomer farm in Sedjera. To the south you go to the Jordan valley, to the Kibbutzim Dganya, Afikim, Ashdot Jakob. We want to go to the Colony "Kinneret". Friends invited us to visit there. So we are almost there. We don't need to go north, we don't need to go south, simply downhill... Directly into the colony. Shalom! How are you? What is this? This is not a colony, these are ancient buildings! This is an old yard. This is not the colony. This is the Kinneret Farm. Just one second, I am a little bit confused. You invited us to visit the colony. Here we see a farm. You spoke about a Kibbutz, you are speaking about a "Moshav". What is the difference? Well, in the Moschav and the Moschava, the farm is privately owned. Each family is working in its own farm. The majority of the colonies already turned into towns. In the Kibbutz, the farm belongs to everybody. It is a collective farm. Everything belongs to everyone. And in the farm? This was a long time ago, in the year 1905, the United Jewish Appeal bought the land, and built a couple of farms. Labourers came to the farm to learn how to cultivate the land. During the day they worked, and in the night they dreamt. They dreamt about Jewish labour, Jewish defence and the Hebrew Language. Here, in the colony Kinneret studied the poet Rachel how to cultivate the land, and in the evenings she wrote poems. Enough! Enough! When will this lecture finish? Now we go back home, to the colony Kinneret. You will be able to rest a little bit, and afterwards we go for a walk. And also swim in the Lake of Gallillee? .

Women's Quest for Occupational Equality: the Case of Agricultural
Rural History (1996) 7, 1, 33-52. Copyright © 1996 Cambridge University Press 33 Women's Quest For Occupational Equality: The Case Of Jewish Female Agricultural Workers in Pre-State Israel YOSSI KATZ and SHOSHANA NEUMAN I. Introduction There is a common belief that Israeli women have achieved gender equality over and above that attained in America and European countries. Evidence cited to support this is the fact that women routinely serve in the Israeli army and the country elected a woman, Golda Meir, as prime minister. Equality between men and women is claimed to date back to the days at the beginning of the century when both sexes worked shoulder to shoulder in road construction and land reclamation (Bernstein, 1992: 2). The years 1904—14 and 1919-23, known in Zionist history as the Second and Third Aliyah (waves of immigration), were indeed formative times during which the dominant values of the society were shaped and the infrastructure of future organizations was laid (Eisenstadt, 1967; Izraeli, 1981). The immigrants who arrived during this period, known as halutzim (male pioneers) and halutzot (female pioneers) were idealistic nationalists from Eastern Europe. They were young and single, and came with the express purpose of rebuilding Zion and creating a new type of egalitarian and labor-oriented society. These years also proved crucial for the status of women. A readiness for experimen- tation and social creativity existed, and the conditions for redefining traditional roles between the sexes were most favorable. Moreover, the Zionist halutzim were deeply committed to social equality. Women had been integrated in various groups and activities prior to their immigration, and this experience created expectations for gender equality after the move as well.

FREETHE WANDERING LAKE: INTO THE HEART OF ASIA EBOOK Sven Hedin,John Hare | 312 pages | 02 Feb 2010 | I.B.Tauris & Co Ltd | 9781848850224 | English | London, United Kingdom A Wandering Naturalist: China: Jiuzhaigou National Park (Part 2) Not a day goes by that we're not in need of God's huge grace and peace. Every morning we need his Spirit to fill us again, to strengthen us for what's ahead. Every day we need a fresh word that he speaks to our hearts, to keep our focus on what's most important. Trying to run this race of life without him will do nothing but drain us dry. They were oppressed, abused, mistreated people. They needed rescue, they needed a way of escape. Miracle after miracle God performed, leading them straight out of slavery, away from the cruel hand of the Egyptians. He set them free. Free from oppression. Free from captivity. Free from bondage. And the adventure was just getting started. The people of Israel spent 40 years in The Wandering Lake: Into the Heart of Asia desert. The days must have been intense, hot, dry, I'm sure they got weary. But God met them where they were, he made sure they had what they needed. They learned through every hard and grueling step, The Wandering Lake: Into the Heart of Asia much they had to rely on Him. We see it over and over in his word. Stories that prove how God never leaves us fending for ourselves when problems arise or seem too big.

Esther Carmel Hakim CANADIAN HADASSAH/WIZO and THE
Esther Carmel Hakim CANADIAN HADASSAH/WIZO AND THE ESTABLISH- MENT OF THE WOMEN’S AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL AT NAHALAL During the second and third decades of the twentieth century, the Zionist movement, which believed that only immigration to Eretz Yisrael (the land of Israel, the term used before the estab- lishment of the state in 1948) could solve the “Jewish problem” in the Diaspora, invested most of its available human and finan- cial resources in settlement. This pioneering ideal, however, was usually viewed as the responsibility of men. The female contri- bution to realizing the vision has not yet been much studied and is still not well known. The idea of agricultural training for women did not orig- inate with the Zionist movement. It stemmed from an increasingly popular trend in a number of western countries at the beginning of the twentieth century towards opening up to women professions previously regarded as male preserves. Several programmes established by individual women or women’s organizations in England, Germany, Switzerland, and the United States aimed to train educated, urban women in agri- culture. At the outset, women financed them. Their pupils were trained in household agricultural skills, as well as in home economics; practical work formed the main educational compo- nent of these programmes.1 Even though the idea of agricultural training was not new, there were unique elements to such programmes in Eretz Yisrael. Perhaps the most unusual was that the organization of 98 Esther Carmel Hakim such programmes in Eretz Israel involved unusual cooperation between two groups of women with different socio-economic backgrounds and different ideologies: the pioneering, socialist, immigrant women from Russia and elsewhere in eastern Europe, who needed assistance in settling,2 and traditionalist, conservative, middle-class women in western countries who supported them.
