Friday, 23 October 2015

I got up and had a nice walk this morning. It's still perfect weather for walking shirtless before sunrise here.

Later, I also walked down and bought challah for Shabbat.

I taught only 2 units of Berlitz today: 11:00-12:30.

I ate a simple lunch at home.

In the evening, I lit candles, drank a bit of sweet red wine, and ate a little challah to welcome the Shabbat Bride.

In this time of brutal attacks on the Jewish people, I leave you with the first 3 verses of Psalm 27:
יי אורי וישעי ממי אירא
יי מעוז-חיי ממי אפחד:
בקרב עלי מרעים לאכל את-בשרי
צרי ואיבי לי המה כשלו ונפלו:
אם-תחנה עלי מחנה לא-יירא לבי
אם-תקום עלי מלחמה
בזאת אני בוטח:
The Eternal is my Light and my Salvation. Whom shall I fear?
The Eternal is the Fortress of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked came to eat my flesh,
My foes and my enemies, they failed and fell.
If they set up camp against me, my heart will not fear;
If war comes upon me,

Even then will I trust.
