Insight of the Week

Nissan 5779 / Mon., April 22, 2019
"A wolf shall dwell with a lamb…,"
indicates that Mashiach's conduct will bring about the revelation
of G-dliness throughout the world, not only among (1) humans, but
also among (2) animals and within the sphere of (3) inanimate objects,
for "the earth will be filled with the knowledge of G-d"
(Isaiah 11:9).
Ascentof Safed is designed to be a place for relaxation, reflection,

study and meditation sessions at your leisure, while staying in our
great hostel with its spectacular views.

next Shabbat)
Torah is higher than time and a person who seriously studies Torah is
merited, even in these dark times, as though he brought a olah, the
highest type of offering in the temple.
