No instruments of war or violence were used so that peace would be built into the very foundation of Jerusalem’s holy temple. To this day, Jerusalem remains the “joy of all the earth”; when Jerusalem is at peace, the whole world is at peace. Learn more about the Biblical connection to Israel and Jerusalem with our Israel Bible monthly reading club!   Join the club now! »  New Western Wall Torah Dedicated in Memory of 3 Youths Murdered by Hamas A new Torah, written in memory of the three youth kidnapped and murdered by Hamas in the summer of 2014, was dedicated for use at the Western Wall on Tuesday.

Playing an important role in the Bible, the shofar is a key part of Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year) and Yom Kippur, when it is played to mark the end of fasting. Shofars are also used to welcome Shabbat, and to announce the new year and the new moon. Only Shofarot Israel offers the skills and expertise of fifteen generations, dating back to 14th century Spain, and now adapted to the modern technology and requirements of present-day Israel and the international market.
