New: The Mezuzah

Hi Everyone!

The Israel Defense Ministry released a video of the preparation and successful launch of the Israeli
Arrow 3 Missile. In the video there is a short clip of the Israeli Ambassador to Washington, Ron Dermer, affixing a
Mezuzah to the entrance of the test facility of the Israeli Arrow 3 Missile.
Kal Hakavod on the missile launch and the Mezuzah.

I created a page with the video and other links about the mezuzah at:

I also posted the video on Facebook at:

Please share. Thank you!
Have a good day,

Updated and Free: Jewish Stories including over 70 audio files

Hi Everyone!

I updated the Jewish stories hotsites page:
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/jewish-stories.htm

The English stories range from Hassidic tales
to English translated Yiddish stories.
Today, I added two new sections:
Israel stories and Holocaust stories

The audio section has over 70 stories written by well known
writers like Sholom Aleichem, I. L. Peretz, and S. Y. Agnon.
Many of the stories from Eastern Europe and beyond were
recorded, in English, as a co-production of the National Yiddish
Book Center and radio station KCRW Santa Monica.
The stories were read by famous actors and actresses like
Alan Alda, Harold Gould, Jeff Goldblum, David Margulies,
Jerry Stiller, Julie Kavner, Joanna Gleason, Alan King,
Lauren Bacall, Walter Matthau and others.

Feedback and additions are welcome.

Have a good day,
Jacob
