Haveil Havalim - Geulah Edition - March 14, 2010

Welcome to the first HH I'm hosting. As a newish member, please excuse any gaffes I make. Otherwise, its still Adar, so take it in good humor.

Another lesson learned; after typing up most of this post, I found the handy carnival page to create it easily. Well, there's always a next time.

"רבי אליעזר אומר: "בניסן נגאלו, בתשרי עתידין ליגאל", ואילו רבי יהושע אומר: "בניסן נגאלו, בניסן עתידין ליגאל
Like anytime else, every chance for another hope should be properly utilized in order to eventually produce it. May we soon be zochah.

To recap,

Founded by Soccer Dad, Haveil Havalim is a carnival of Jewish blogs — a weekly collection of Jewish & Israeli blog highlights, tidbits and points of interest collected from blogs all around the world. It’s hosted by different bloggers each week and coordinated by Jack. The term ‘Haveil Havalim,’ which means “Vanity of Vanities,” is from Qoheleth, (Ecclesiastes) which was written by King Solomon. King Solomon built the Holy Temple in Jerusalem and later on got all bogged down in materialism and other ‘excesses’ and realized that it was nothing but ‘hevel,’ or in English, ‘vanity.’


Torah - Always first and foremost.

Kashrut - Is something fishy?
  • Batya @ Shiloh Musings questions whether moral values can work without a Kosher backbone in the supervision arena. There might be a case to keep the two separate, since values often change, among other reasons.
Humor - No comment needed, ('cause I can't think of any).

Culture - Well, this is a carnival.
Judaism - Something that, I think, we all relate to.
Israel - We love ya!
Politics - We are Jews, after all.
Personal - Ego and stuff.

That concludes this edition. Submit your blog article to the next edition of haveil havalim using our carnival submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.

Well, I looked at the first item in Humor, and I was pretty disappointed. I mean, I understand that some people define Ahavat yisrael as hating chareidim, but at the end it is an attack on Judaism itself. I think this is called Leitzanut, see the progression in the first verse of T'hilim.
