Behold I will extend peace to her like a river and the wealth of nations like a surging stream.

ISAIAH (66:12)

הִנְנִי נֹטֶה אֵלֶיהָ כְּנָהָר שָׁלוֹם וּכְנַחַל שׁוֹטֵף כְּבוֹד גּוֹיִם

ישעיה סו:יב

Jerusalem Inspiration

In this final chapter of Isaiah (ch. 66), the prophet assures the Jewish people that God will bestow peace upon them, and that all the nations will come forth with blessings like a torrent river sweeping things along effortlessly. Jewish tradition teaches that all the blessings of the world are contained in the blessing of peace; it is likened to a vessel that holds all of the other good things in our lives. The valiant soldiers of the IDF defend the borders of our beloved country and yearn for the day when all will reside in peace and tranquility. As winter weather reigns across Israel, help keep our 'peace seekers' warm.
