SONG OF SONGS (2:12)   הַנִּצָּנִים נִרְאוּ בָאָרֶץ עֵת הַזָּמִיר הִגִּיעַ וְקוֹל הַתּוֹר נִשְׁמַע בְּאַרְצֵנוּ שִׁיר הַשִּׁירִים ב:יב ha-ni-tza-neem nir-u ba-a-retz ayt ha-za-meer hi-gee-a v'-kol ha-tor nish-ma b'-ar-tzay-nu Shabbat Inspiration Nitzanit, from the word in our verse for “blossom,” was a beautiful Jewish community in northern Gaza. The people of this flourishing town transformed the desert sand into luscious gardens, advanced greenhouses, and agricultural miracles. Nitzanit was tragically uprooted ten years ago this summer, in Israel's tremendous quest for peace. Tina Nagar commemorates her lost garden in Nitzanit with a stunning set of Biblical greeting cards. The images represent her greatest hope to replant roots and make the Holy Land blossom anew.   Get these beautiful Biblical greetings cards » Glorious Orchards of Northern Israel Ten years after the Jewish farming communities in the Gaza Strip were uprooted, the Land is miraculously blossoming once again, this time in northern Israel.
