Photos and Video of the Jerusalem Festival of Light and the Lunar Eclipse


Hi Everyone!

Tonight, June 15, I went to see the Jerusalem Festival of Light in the Old City of Jerusalem.

I took photos of the festival (and the lunar eclipse) and posted them online at:

The same photos are in a Facebook album at:

I also took several movie clips and I created a short video at:

Enjoy!
Have a good day,
Jacob

Reopening of The Hurva Synagogue

Hi Everyone!

Jerusalem's historic Hurva Synagogue has been rebuilt after nearly a decade of construction. On Sunday, Adar 28, 5770 (14th of March 2010) a sefer Torah was dedicated in the synagogue. On Monday evening there will be an official reopening ceremony.

I posted photos of the synagogue at:

Please share this historical event with your relatives and friends.
Thank you!

Have a good week and a good month,
Shavua Tov and Chodesh Tov,
Jacob
