Global Event: President's invitation to observe the Sabbath dell'UCEI
joining an initiative which collects the benefit of the whole Jewish world - on the proposal of Councillor Lapworth Septimus - UCEI invites all the Italian Jewish Communities to work to promote initiatives (shabbatonim, Torah lessons, group lunch) that can stimulate and bring our community together to watch the Shabbatot on 24-25 December and 31 December 1 January.
The individual seeks to involve relatives and friends to enjoy them the holiness of Shabbat.
E 'written in the Zohar: two Shabbatot if Israel respects the rules, would immediately be redeemed. Perhaps it is no coincidence that the combination of non-Jewish holidays and Shabbat with the means to measure our level of Judaism.
Next Shabbat we begin reading the Sefer Shemot, the second book of the Torah. The name "Shemot" is the acronym of the three mitzwoth, Milà Shabbat and Tefillin, which allowed the Jewish people to remain in exile and that deserve liberation from Egyptian slavery and prepare ourselves for the future. Let us hope that, as then, the next Shabbatot represent a beginning of our journey towards the complete redemption.
