Let’s talk about one of the least intuitive words in Hebrew.
Please.
It’s not the easiest one to guess…
But here’s the good news:
It’s also the word for “there you go” (like when a waiter brings your food)
And for “you’re welcome”
One tricky word — three super useful meanings.
You’ll hear it everywhere in Israel.
Save the video so that you have it in your pocket whenever you need it

I'm working on an original translation of the Bible. My goal is to let the words of scripture guide my translation rather than reading a favored theology into the text. As the saying goes, "Where the Bible speaks, we speak, where it is silent, we are silent." In addition to being a formal equivalence, I try to preserve original idioms (with clarification in the footnotes), poetic and metaphorical language, and distinct synonyms (ie. land/ground/dust) where possible.
The text is available under a Creative Commons license. And it is available at a website, and as an ebook, though it is still incomplete.

The earth is waking…
You can feel it in the soft breeze, see it in the burst of blossoms, and hear it in the joyful chirping of birds. Spring is here, and with it comes the quiet reminder that renewal is always possible.
Take a deep breath—new beginnings are blooming all around us.
"The ambivalence at the core of #hipster lent itself to what would become hipster #Judaism. Was hipster Judaism a sincere reclamation of an identity otherwise shunned as dorky? (#Hebrew school: dorky. #Jewish communal publications: dorky. Parents wanting you to follow traditions: dorky. Eating different foods and celebrating different holidays than everyone else: dorky.) Or was it an ironic embrace of the dorky?
Nowhere was this ambivalence leaned into more than in the very existence of something called #Heeb, a 2001-2010 print publication recently brought back to digital life by Mik Moore, a Jewish marketer we recently interviewed on Bonjour Chai. It was slur-reclamation, but not the earnest sort. It leaned into the squirming."
Breaking the Silence (on FB):
The following statement was published in #Haaretz’s #Hebrew print edition on Friday, in collaboration with many of our partners in #Israeli civil society.
“Say no to the Israeli government’s policy of death
Tens of thousands of deaths, entire cities razed, millions of human beings emaciated from hunger, hostages abandoned to suffer and die - none of this satisfies the bloodlust of the #Netanyahu-Ben Gvir government.
For the sake of its political survival, and in the name of the war of attrition it declared against the Palestinian people, the Israeli government is prepared to continue committing the gravest crimes.
This is what dictatorship looks like - when a leader is prepared to trade in human blood for his own selfish interests.
It’s time to say loud and clear: We will not continue to follow him on this path of doom.
We all have a duty to resist the Netanyahu-Ben Gvir government’s policy of death.

Is it just me or filters in modern search engines do not show any discussions on the background of 1488 becoming a unicode for symbol א, aleph? Someone must have tried to dig this story up.

Purim Eve is here!
Israel is buzzing—costumes, parades, and festive energy everywhere! Bakeries overflow with אוזני המן (Haman’s ears), the classic Purim treat.
In Hebrew: Singular: אוזן המן /’o-zen ha-’man/ (Haman’s ear)
Plural: אוזני המן /oz-’ney ha-’man/ (Haman’s ears)
Why ears? Midrash: Haman’s ears were cut as punishment.
Culinary: A known Purim pastry in Europe.
Yiddish: “Hamantaschen” means “Haman’s pockets,” later aligning with the Hebrew “ear” version.
Bite into an ear, a pocket, or just a delicious pastry—חג פורים שמח!
Am Yisrael Chai! This Hebrew saying has become more important given the antisemitism in the world. Also available in pink lettering too.

**I, Estellina: Jewish women and early printing**
_“Today’s blogpost explores the stories of three Jewish women living and working in Europe in the 15th century – Estellina Conat, Teresa de Lucena and Doña Reyna Mendes – highlighting books from the British Library’s Hebrew incunabula (15th-century printed books) and 16th-century printed collections.”_

Breaking news!
Someone just discovered that Hebrew books are read right to left—and they were not happy about it!
Yes, despite every description clearly stating that my Hebrew 1 & 2 workbooks are true Hebrew editions (formatted exactly as Hebrew books should be), I still get the occasional 1-star review from someone convinced they were printed backwards.
Sigh. If only they knew… this is exactly how Hebrew is meant to be read and written!
So, consider this your friendly reminder: My workbooks follow the authentic Hebrew format—on purpose
If you’re ready to train your brain the right way (or should I say, the right-to-left way ), grab a copy and start learning like a pro!

Needed now maybe more than ever...Tikkun Olam is Hebrew and means to repair the world. It is an important Jewish concept for social justice or social action, that it is a duty for Jews to help heal the world.
