The Har Bracha Yeshiva has published a new video detailing, from its historic beginnings, the blessings that the Jews have brought the world. In the video clip, viewers can see the United Nations General Assembly, as one of the speakers gets up to condemn Israel before the vote against it, but in reality his condemnations and accusations aginst Israel and the Jews only strengthen them and reveal their uniqueness.
The video clip is part of a new website which aired recently – “The Jewish Tradition.” The site is based on the book, “The Jewish Tradition,” by Rabbi Eliezer Melamed, the dean of the Har Bracha Yeshiva and the rabbi of the town.
On the site, readers can find anything that wish to know about Judaism – the significance of the commandments, history, and the Jewish vision. There is material to learn prior to a bar mitzvah, wedding, holidays, how Judaism sees a modern country, legal issues, and social issues. The site is translated into five languages and includes easy quizzes.
In the introduction to the book, Rabbi Melamed writes, “The way to learn, ‘The Jewish Tradition’ – the history of the Jewish People, its periods of greatness and its difficult crises, receives its full meaning, and turns into a story of the history of revelation of faith and a vision of correcting the world, a story which we note on Sabbaths and holidays, in prayers, and on memorial and fast days.”
