Hi Everyone! 

Passover is a Jewish holiday, of Biblical origin, marking the 
birth of the Jews as a people and their emergence as a unique 
nation in history, devoted to G-d's will. It celebrates the 
liberation of the children of Israel from slavery in Egypt 
over 3000 years ago, under the leadership of Moses. 

This year, Passover begins on Wednesday night, April 8, 2020

The Jewish Trivia Quiz - Passover Trivia 
https://jewish-trivia.com 

In which Hebrew month is Passover celebrated ? 
Why do we eat matzah during Passover ? 
How old was Moshe's mother when she gave birth to Moshe ? 
How long did the Jews' exile in Egypt last ? 
Where did the Jews live in Egypt ? 
How many days did the plague of blood last ? 
What happened to Pharoh's daughter, Batiya, when the 
Jewish people left Egypt ? 

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice 
quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings. 
Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable.

stories to song parodies. You may want to print several of 
them before Passover and distribute copies to your family

will find them entertaining and even educational.

[ha-Safran] Updated: 42 Free and Useful Android Applications including Track Virus and IZEE TV

2020-03-17 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

I updated my list of free and useful Android applications.
The list has 42 free and useful applications that I recommend. 
Several of the programs are supported by ads and some have 
ad-free paid versions. 
After each application description is a link to its download page. 
Note to Apple users: Many of these applications are also 
available for Apple iOS devices.
I am not connected or know any of the developers / owners.
There are no affiliate links or advertising on my page.

https://jr.co.il/training/free-android-applications.htm

The 6 new additions are:

1. Track Virus - Israelis developed this new app, in partnership with United 
Hatzalah of Israel, that lets the user know if she or he has been exposed to 
someone diagnosed with the COVID-19 novel coronavirus.
The information is kept anonymously on each smartphone and 
is not uploaded to the cloud. Downloading does not require any form 
of identification or information gathering.

The app works by crosschecking a person's path with the paths of 
confirmed patients of the coronavirus as listed by the Health Ministry. 
Should a person have been in a location where a confirmed ill person 
was they will receive a notification on their app. It is important to note that 
the application only works from the time it is downloaded and not 
retroactively.

2. Zap Price Comparison - presenting more than a million products from 1,300 
e-commerce stores. Compare prices for each product, read users reviews on 
products and stores, get detailed products specs.

3. Weather Forecast - forecasts weather daily & hourly

4. IZEE TV - allows watching Israeli national free to air channels for free. 
No subscription required.

5. Silent Mode - Turn your phone on silent mode for a period of time. 
Useful when going to a movie, attending a meeting or when sleeping. 
Simply set the phone to automatically come out of the silent mode afterwards.

6. Tfilon - is a free siddur.
Shows Hebrew with perfect Nikud 
Shows Halachic Zmanim for 120 cities around the world. 
Switch dates on sunset 
All additions show when needed 
Random Dvar Torah before Birkat HaMazon 
Nusachs available: Ashkenaz, Sfard and Edot Hamizrach

Tfilot available in Tfilon: Shacharit - including Musaf when needed, 
Mincha, Arvit, Kriat Shma on the bed, Birkat Hamazon, Mein Shalosh, 
Sheva Brachot, Seder Brit Mila, Bore Nefashot, Asher Yatzar, 
Tfilat HaDerech, Kidush/Birkat Levana.

The list of 42 apps also includes:

[ha-Safran] Haod Avi Chai - The Short Vort Haggadah by David Goodman

2020-03-02 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

For the past 8 years, I have been going to my friends, the Goodmans,
for Pesach Seder. During the seder, David Goodman, would give short
vorts about the Haggadah. It reminds me of how my mother a"h, who was
a Hebrew teacher in Brooklyn, would also give explanations during the seder.

David has published a Haggadah called "Haod Avi Chai" with over 450
short vorts about the Haggadah. I highly recommend it.
You can see additional details about the book and ordering information at:
https://haod-avi-chai.co.il/index.html

Enjoy the new Haggadah and consider getting a copy
to give as a Passover gift.

Have a good night,
Jacob Richman

appreciation of nature and our relationship to it.
It is customary to plant trees and partake of the fruits of
the land of Israel to mark the occasion. 

The Jewish Trivia Quiz: Tu B'Shvat
https://jewish-trivia.com

Which fruit is used to make wine ?
When did Kabbalists originate the Tu B'shvat Seder ?
How many glasses of wine are drunk at the Tu B'Shvat seder ?
What branch of a tree did the dove bring back after the flood ?
How many days does the Hebrew month of Shvat have ?
What is associated with both Chanukah and Tu B'Shvat ?
In Israel, what happens to trees starting on the 15th of Shvat ?
Since 1901, how many trees has the Jewish National Fund
planted in Israel ?
According to the Torah, which fruits did the spies bring to the
children of Israel in the wilderness ?

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice

[ha-Safran] Only in Israel - Learn Hebrew Words from Milk Cartons

2020-01-13 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Israel marks Hebrew Language Day every year on the birthday of 
Eliezer Ben Yehuda, the father of modern spoken Hebrew. 
This year, the Hebrew date, 21st of Tevet, falls on January 18, 2020 - Shabbat. 
Activities throughout Israel will take place on Thursday, January 16, 2020.

In Honor of Hebrew Language Day, The Academy of the Hebrew Language,
together with Tnuva, printed groups of Hebrew words on the side of milk 
cartons.

Tonight, I went to my local supermarket and took photos of the milk cartons.
I posted them online at:
https://jr.co.il/only-in-israel/learning-hebrew-words-from-milk-cartons.htm
Enjoy the photos.
Please share. Thank you!

Have a good night,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Dicta - free online analytical tools for Hebrew text

2020-01-07 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Today, I received an email about a site that has
free online analytical tools for Hebrew text

The site is called Dicta and the address is:
http://dicta.org.il/index.html

Tools include:

- Nakdan: Automatically add nikud (vocalization)
to any modern, poetic or classical Hebrew text.

- Search the Bible intuitively

- Citation Finder

- Rabbinic Abbreviation Expander

- Search the Talmud and Mishnah
for words and phrases intuitively,
and other tools

I tried out the Nakdan and the Bible search. 
Very Good!

I added the site to my Learn Hebrew hotsites and my Torah Online Hotsites at:
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/hebrew.htm
and
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/torah.htm

If you know of other free, usefull websites related to learning Hebrew or
Torah related sites, please let me know.
Thank you.

Have a good day,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Israeli Chanukah Logos and Posters

2019-12-26 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

The Chanukah miracles happened here in Israel and the 
reminders are everywhere. 

I created a new "Only in Israel" page which displays
30 Israeli Chanukah logos and posters.
https://jr.co.il/only-in-israel/israeli-chanukah-logos-and-posters.htm

If you live outside of Israel, you may not have a sense on
how Jewish holidays are celebrated and honored in our
Jewish homeland. This will give you a small insight.

Please share. Thank you.

Chanukah Sameach and Shabbat Shalom,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Educational resources about Chanukah and over 800 Chanukah videos

2019-12-04 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Chanukah, the Jewish Festival of Lights, is observed for 
eight days, beginning on the evening of the 25th day of 
the Hebrew month of Kislev. This year Chanukah starts 
Sunday night, December 22, 2019.

Chanukah is a wonderful holiday of renewed dedication, 
faith, hope and spiritual light. It's a holiday that says: 
"Never lose hope." Chanukah commemorates the victory of a 
small band of Maccabees over the pagan Syrian-Greeks who 
ruled over Israel. 

The Chanukah Page includes lesson sites in several languages, 
videos, songs, Chanukah trivia quiz, English Hebrew vocabulary lists, 
recipes, games, humor, photos, clipart, coloring pages and 
a map of the sites of the Maccabees 166-161 BCE.

The address is:
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/chanukah.htm

The Chanukah Video Page has links to over 800
cool Chanukah videos:
https://jr.co.il/videos/chanukah-videos.htm

The video page will be updated as we get closer to Chanukah. 
Suggestions for new video additions are welcome.

Enjoy!

Please share these holiday resources. Thank You!

Have a good night,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] The Noach Page

2019-10-27 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

I updated the Noach Page which has links to children parsha
pages, commentary pages, English-Hebrew "animals" vocabulary, 
songs, humor items, and a section on Noach stamps, graphics and 
clipart. The page also includes Noach word search game pages in 
three languages.

The address is:
https://jr.co.il/t/noach.htm

In addition to the main Noach page, I have a humor section with 
a collection of Noach Cartoons from around the net:
https://jr.co.il/humor/noach-cartoons.htm

Enjoy and please share the pages. Thank you!

Shavua Tov!
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Photos of Chol HaMoed Sukkot in Jerusalem

2019-10-16 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Today, Wednesday October 16 - Chol HaMoed Sukkot,
I went to Jerusalem to enjoy the chag and to take photos.
I started with the Jerusalem Light Rail Sukkah at
Ammunition Hill and then I went to the large Sukkah at
City Hall in Kikar Safra.
I continued my walk to the "World Taste Festival" that
is taking place along the outside wall of the old city.
>From there I walked through Mamila Mall and then to
Yaffo Street. At Kikar Tzion I walked up Ben Yehuda
Street and I enjoyed the free entertainment on each block.
It was really nice. Kol Hakavod to the mayor and city staff 
for an enjoyable day.

I posted the photos at:
https://jr.co.il/jerusalem/2019/jer640.htm

I also copied the photos to a Facebook album at:
http://bit.ly/facebook-jerusalem-sukkot-5780

Enjoy!
Please share. Thank You!

Moadim L'Simcha,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Educational Resources about Tisha B'Av

2019-08-04 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Shalom.

Tisha B'Av is the saddest day on the Jewish calendar because
of the incredible series of tragedies which occurred on that 
date throughout Jewish History.

Tisha B'Av means "the ninth of the Hebrew month of Av".
Tisha B'Av primarily commemorates the destruction of the first
and second Temples, both of which were destroyed on the ninth 
of Av - the first by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.E.; the second 
by the Romans in 70 C.E.

Although this day is primarily meant to commemorate the
destruction of the Temple, it is appropriate to consider on 
this day the many other tragedies of the Jewish people, many 
of which occurred on this day, most notably the expulsion of 
the Jews from Spain in 1492. 

This year 5779 - 2019, we observe the fast day of Tisha B'Av 
starting from Saturday after nightfall, August 10, 
until nightfall on Sunday, August 11.
You can learn more about this Jewish fast day at:
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/tisha-b-av.htm

May we see the rebuilding of the Temple in our days and that
Tisha B'Av becomes a day of celebration.

If you are fasting: 
Have a meaningful fast.

Jacob

[ha-Safran] Updated and Free: Jewish Stories including over 70 audio files

2019-07-16 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

I updated the Jewish stories hotsites page:
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/jewish-stories.htm

The English stories range from Hassidic tales 
to English translated Yiddish stories.
Today, I added two new sections: 
Israel stories and Holocaust stories

The audio section has over 70 stories written by well known
writers like Sholom Aleichem, I. L. Peretz, and S. Y. Agnon.
Many of the stories from Eastern Europe and beyond were

[ha-Safran] My maternal great-grandfather - Pinchas Tzvi Grayevsky - Jerusalem - 1873-1941

2019-06-01 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
My maternal great-grandfather 
- Pinchas Tzvi Grayevsky - Jerusalem - 1873-1941
https://jr.co.il/richman/pinchas-grayevsky.htm

>From 1948 to 1967 Jordan occupied the oldest Jewish cemetery in the world: Har 
HaZeitim - Mount of Olives.
Jewish burials were halted, massive vandalism took place, and
40,000 of the 50,000 graves were desecrated.
King Hussein permitted the construction of the Intercontinental Hotel at the 
summit of the Mount of Olives together with a road that cut through the 
cemetery which destroyed hundreds of Jewish graves, some from the First Temple 
Period.
The destruction was unbridled and premeditated. Ancient tombstones were ripped 
out to be used as latrine floors, urinal walls and pavement stones. Garbage was 
regularly dumped on the tombs.

After the Six-Day War, restoration work began, and the cemetery was re-opened 
for burials. My mom, z"l,  told me that the Israeli government used my great 
grandfather's research to reconstruct many of the graves and tombstones on Har 
HaZeitim.

Shavua Tov and Yom Yerushalayim Sameach!
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Educational Resources for Passover

2019-04-04 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone! 

Passover is a Jewish holiday, of Biblical origin, marking the 
birth of the Jews as a people and their emergence as a unique 
nation in history, devoted to G-d's will. It celebrates the 
liberation of the children of Israel from slavery in Egypt 
over 3000 years ago, under the leadership of Moses. 

This year, Passover begins on Friday night, April 19, 2019 

The Jewish Trivia Quiz - Passover Trivia 
https://jewish-trivia.com 

In which Hebrew month is Passover celebrated ? 
Why do we eat matzah during Passover ? 
How old was Moshe's mother when she gave birth to Moshe ? 
How long did the Jews' exile in Egypt last ? 
Where did the Jews live in Egypt ? 
How many days did the plague of blood last ? 
What happened to Pharoh's daughter, Batiya, when the 
Jewish people left Egypt ? 

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice 
quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings. 
Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable. 

My English Hebrew Dictionary - Passover Vocabulary 
https://english-hebrew-dictionary.com/passover-1.htm

Free Passover Clipart 
http://www.jewish-clipart.com
Whether you need a picture for your child's class project, 
a graphic for your synagogue, Hillel or JCC Passover 
announcement, the Jewish Clipart Database has the pictures 
for you. You can copy, save and print the graphics in 
three different sizes. 

Cool Passover Videos 
https://jr.co.il/videos/passover-videos.htm
Over 560 Cool Passover video links. 
There is something for everyone. 
Additional videos will be added as we get closer to Passover

The Passover Humor Files 
https://jr.co.il/humor/passover.htm

Over 130 Passover humor files ranging from funny jokes and 
stories to song parodies. You may want to print several of 
them before Passover and distribute copies to your family and 
guests between the seder meal courses. Both kids and adults 
will find them entertaining and even educational. 

Passover Photo Gallery
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/passover-photos.htm

To learn more about Passover, I posted on my website 
120 site links, ranging from from laws and customs to games and 
recipes. Site languages include English, Hebrew, Russian, 
Spanish, French, Portuguese, German and Italian. 
All 120 links have been reviewed / checked this week. 

The address is: 
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/passover.htm

Please forward this message to relatives and friends, 
so they may benefit from these holiday resources. 
Thank you! 

Enjoy! 

Shabbat Shalom,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] New: Haod Avi Chai - The Short Vort Haggadah by David Goodman

2019-04-02 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

For the past 7 years, I have been going to my friends, the Goodmans,
for Pesach Seder. During the seder, David Goodman, would give short
vorts about the Haggadah. It reminds me of how my mother a"h, who was
a Hebrew teacher in Brooklyn, would also give explanations during the seder.

David just published a new Haggadah called "Haod Avi Chai" with over 450
short vorts about the Haggadah. I highly recommend it.
You can see additional details about the book and ordering information at:
https://haod-avi-chai.co.il/index.html

Enjoy the new Haggadah and consider getting a copy 
to give as a Passover gift.

Shavua Tov,
Jacob

PS I am updating the Passover sites on an ongoing basis.

[ha-Safran] Updated: Online Fun including Crossword Puzzles

2019-03-04 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

It has been years since I updated the online 
fun hotsites. Tonight, I cleared out all the 
closed sites and made changes and additions 
to the list. I created a new page for the list at:
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/online-fun.htm

The page includes websites with crossword puzzles.
The first site listed has daily printable crossword puzzles
and an archive going back several years.
I do not do crossword puzzles - when time permits,
I play free online Lexulous and Scrabble via Facebook. 
However, I enter the crosswords site once every week 
or two and I download six daily crossword puzzles in 
PDF format. I also screen capture images of the 
six answer sheets. Why?
A few months ago, an older friend had to move to an
old age home in Jerusalem. I found out that she likes 
crossword puzzles but she does not have online access.
I asked for the email of the administration office
and I email them the PDF's and images and they print
and deliver them to her room. She enjoys doing the 
puzzles and doing word games keeps the mind active.
BTW - I try to send just six PDFs in an email in order
not to be a burden on the kind staff and I wait a few days 
before sending the answers.

I thought this tidbit was worth sharing in order to bring
some joy to others. 

Please share. Thank you!

Have a good night / morning,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] New: "Eat Healthy" Hebrew Videos with English Translations

2019-02-13 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

The Israel Ministry of Health has been running a 
campaign against processed food. The campaign 
highlights the advantages of unprocessed food, 
such as fresh chicken, legumes, and fresh vegetables.
They have been publicizing the Hebrew public service 
announcements on television, Youtube and social media.
Today, I created a page of the videos with English
translations.
https://jr.co.il/videos/eat-healthy-hebrew-videos.htm

Feedback is welcome.
Please share. Thank You!

Have a good night,

[ha-Safran] Educational and Fun Resources for Purim

2019-02-07 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!
 
Purim, the fun-filled Jewish holiday, falls on the
14th of the Hebrew month of Adar. This year Purim
begins Wednesday night March 20, 2019.
In Jerusalem, Purim begins Thursday night.

The following resources will help you appreciate and 
enjoy the holiday.
 
The Jewish Trivia Quiz
https://jewish-trivia.com
 
Purim Trivia
Why do people eat poppy seeds on Purim ? 
>From what tribe was Mordecai ? 
Why was Haman angry at Mordechai ? 
Who was queen of Persia before Esther ? 
Esther had another name, what was it ? 
How many times is Haman's name mentioned in the megillah ? 
What did the king do when he couldn't sleep ? 
What does the word "Esther" mean ? 
How many advisors did king Achashverosh have ? 
 
The above questions are examples from the multiple choice 
quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings.
Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable.
 
English Hebrew Purim vocabulary study sheets. 
https://english-hebrew-dictionary.com/purim-1.htm
 
Free Purim Clipart 
http://jewish-clipart.com
 
Whether you need a picture to attach to your "Mishloach Manot",
a picture for your child's class project, a graphic for your 
synagogue, Hillel or JCC Purim announcement, the Jewish Clipart 
Database has the pictures for you. 
You can copy, save and print the graphics in three different sizes. 
 
My Hebrew Songbook - Purim Songs
http://www.my-hebrew-songbook.com
 
Enter the songbook and choose the category Purim.
You can view any song online or create printed song sheets
with several songs together for a sing along. All Hebrew is 
graphic so you do not need Hebrew support to view or print 
the songs. All songs include Hebrew nikud (vowels).
 
Purim Humor Files - Purim Shpiel and funny stuff

Over 330 videos ranging from Purim Shpiels to funny gags.
New videos will be added as be get closer to Purim.

To learn more about Purim, I posted on my website 
76 site links, ranging from from laws and customs to games and 
recipes. Site languages include English, Hebrew, Russian, 
Spanish, French, Portuguese, German and Italian.
 
All 76 links have been reviewed / checked this week.

[ha-Safran] Only in Israel - Learn Hebrew Words from Milk Cartons - additional words

2018-12-13 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Israel marks Hebrew Language Day every year on the 
birthday of Eliezer Ben Yehuda, the father of modern 
spoken Hebrew. This year, the Hebrew date (21 of Tevet) 
falls on December 29, 2018.

In Honor of Hebrew Language Day and to encourage 
Israelis to use Hebrew words instead of English ones, 
the Academy of the Hebrew Language, together with Tnuva,
printed lesser-known Hebrew words on the side of milk cartons.

Two weeks ago, I posted photos of several milk cartons with words.
Tonight, at the Rami Levy Supermarket, I took additional photos 
and posted them at:
https://jr.co.il/only-in-israel/learning-hebrew-words-from-milk-cartons.htm

Please share. Thank you!

Shabbat Shalom,
Jacob

[ha-Safran] Educational resources about Chanukah and over 800 Chanukah videos

2018-12-03 Thread Jacob Richman via Hasafran
Hi Everyone!

Chanukah, the Jewish Festival of Lights, is observed for 
eight days, beginning on the evening of the 25th day of 
the Hebrew month of Kislev. This year Chanukah starts 
Sunday night, December 2, 2018.

Chanukah is a wonderful holiday of renewed dedication, 
faith, hope and spiritual light. It's a holiday that says: 
"Never lose hope." Chanukah commemorates the victory of a 
small band of Maccabees over the pagan Syrian-Greeks who 
ruled over Israel. 

The Chanukah Page includes lesson sites in several languages, 
videos, songs, Chanukah trivia quiz, English Hebrew vocabulary lists, 
recipes, games, humor, photos, clipart, coloring pages and 
a map of the sites of the Maccabees 166-161 BCE.

The address is:
https://jr.co.il/hotsites/chanukah.htm

The Chanukah Video Page has links to over 800
cool Chanukah videos:
https://jr.co.il/videos/chanukah-videos.htm

Enjoy!

Please share these holiday resources. Thank You!

Shavua Tov and Chanukah Sameach!
Have a good week and Happy Chanukah!
Jacob
