Today's verse tells us that the miraculous story of Purim, recorded in the
Book of Esther, must be "remembered and celebrated throughout every generation." A few weeks
after Purim, we will observe Passover, when we are commanded to remember and
retell the story of the Exodus. Why is it so important to remember these events
so carefully thousands of years later? Their lessons are still relevant to our
lives. On both holidays, we tap into the joy of God's salvation and intervention
in our lives, and become determined to renew our connection with Him. Start
preparing by purchasing your holiday items early from the Israel365 store. An
extra bonus: Purim and Passover items are now on sale at 10% off!
