  • Understanding Lag B'omer the Judaism Site
    Torah.org Understanding Lag B'Omer The Judaism Site https://torah.org/counting-the-omer/lag-baomer/ UNDERSTANDING LAG B'OMER by Torah.org THE HOLIDAY OF LAG B'OMER The holiday of Lag B'Omer is the 33rd day of the Omer count. There are two reasons why this day is greeted with happiness, a break from the customs of mourning observed by many for much of the Omer period. The Talmud tells us that during the time of the great teacher Rebbe Akiva, a plague raged through his yeshiva, his rabbinical school, during the Omer. He lost 24,000 students during this time; even the great schools in Babylonia, and those of today, are not as large. Rebbe Akiva went on to teach five more students, and it is they who transmitted much of Jewish tradition on to future generations -- so one can only imagine what was lost because those 24,000 other students passed away. The Sages explain that the reason for the loss of these students was that despite their great learning, they were not respectful towards each other. Considering their towering scholarship, they should have showed more care and concern for the honor of their fellows. There are various traditions regarding the observance of mourning during the Omer, based upon the days when students passed away during the plague. But all agree that the deaths were interrupted on Lag B'Omer. There was, however, a very notable death on Lag B'Omer -- of one of Rebbe Akiva's great students, Rebbe Shimon ben Yochai (also known using the Aramaic form of "son of," Rebbe Shimon bar Yochai).

  • Lawyers' Litigation Forecasts Play an Integral Role in the Justice System
    Journalism and Mass Communication, August 2015, Vol. 5, No. 8, 373-387 D doi: 10.17265/2160-6579/2015.08.001 DAVID PUBLISHING “Painting with Words”: “Social Justice” Protest‟s Narrative in the Israeli‟s News Alonit Berenson Zefat Academic College, Safed, Israel This article analyzes the role of the media during the 2011 social protests in Israel, in order to examine why the “Social Justice” protest proved more effective than any other social protest organized previously in Israel. Scholars have shown that media framing has a powerful effect on citizen perception and policy debates. The social protests focused on the political-social-economic policy based on a neo-liberal ideology. They signified the beginnings of resistance to the system and became the focus of public and media identification via reports published by leading Israeli newspapers: Yedioth Ahronoth and Israel Hayom. Using content analysis, the author explore how the media plays an important role to shape the public perception of how to think and act about the protest. Due to the results, we evident the expand media capacity and influence, and that these effects are mediated in presenting positive and supportive coverage, including connotations and metaphors expressed by means of familiar slogans and events in the collective memory of Israeli society. Additionally, the expression “social justice” that became the protest‟s slogan, offered a broad common basis with which each citizen could identify, including journalists. Keywords: media framing, journalism, social justice, protest Introduction Towards the end of 2010 and the beginning of 2011, social groups and individuals began organizing small-scale demonstrations in the streets and town squares of a number of European cities, in countries such as Britain, Spain, Portugal, and Greece, as well as Israel.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. The exact Hebrew name for this affair is the “Yemenite children Affair.” I use the word babies instead of children since at least two thirds of the kidnapped were in fact infants. 2. 1,053 complaints were submitted to all three commissions combined (1033 complaints of disappearances from camps and hospitals in Israel, and 20 from camp Hashed in Yemen). Rabbi Meshulam’s organization claimed to have information about 1,700 babies kidnapped prior to 1952 (450 of them from other Mizrahi ethnic groups) and about 4,500 babies kidnapped prior to 1956. These figures were neither discredited nor vali- dated by the last commission (Shoshi Zaid, The Child is Gone [Jerusalem: Geffen Books, 2001], 19–22). 3. During the immigrants’ stay in transit and absorption camps, the babies were taken to stone structures called baby houses. Mothers were allowed entry only a few times each day to nurse their babies. 4. See, for instance, the testimony of Naomi Gavra in Tzipi Talmor’s film Down a One Way Road (1997) and the testimony of Shoshana Farhi on the show Uvda (1996). 5. The transit camp Hashed in Yemen housed most of the immigrants before the flight to Israel. 6. This story is based on my interview with the Ovadiya family for a story I wrote for the newspaper Shishi in 1994 and a subsequent interview for the show Uvda in 1996. I should also note that this story as well as my aunt’s story does not represent the typical kidnapping scenario. 7. The Hebrew term “Sephardic” means “from Spain.” 8.

  • Significant Times and Dates
    Significant Times and Dates Festivals The Jewish Calendar Jewish holidays or festivals (yamim tovim) are holidays observed by Jews throughout the Hebrew calendar and include religious, cultural, and national aspects. Some are derived from Biblical mitzvot (commandments), others from rabbinic mandates, while others commemorate Jewish history and the history of the State of Israel. All Jewish holidays begin the evening before the date specified. This is because a Jewish day begins and ends at sunset, rather than at midnight. (It is inferred from the story of creation in Genesis, where it says, “And there was evening, and there was morning, one day”.) Jewish holidays occur on the same dates every year in the Hebrew calendar, but the dates vary in the Gregorian calendar. This is because the Hebrew calendar is a lunisolar calendar (based on the cycles of both the moon and sun), whereas the Gregorian calendar is only a solar calendar. The Jewish calendar is primarily lunar, with each month beginning on the new moon. There are approximately 12.4 lunar months in every solar year, so a 12- month lunar calendar loses about 11 days every year. To prevent the “drifting” of months and holy days, Hillel II, in the fourth century, established a fixed calendar based on mathematical and astronomical calculations. This calendar, still in use today, realigned the lunar calendar with the solar years. Holidays of biblical and rabbinic (Talmudic) origin include Q The Sabbath Q Rosh Chodesh—The New Month Q Rosh Hashanah—The Jewish New Year Q Aseret Yemei Teshuva—Ten
