Szabat Zachor
[maxbutton id=”5″ url=”https://polishjewsreviving.org/shabbat-zachor-2/” ] Ostatni szabat przed świętem Purim znany jest jako Szabat Zachor, co można przetłumaczyć na język polski jako “Szabat Pamiętaj!

This is similar to the process developed by the Jewish Publication Society, which has licensed this effort.[…]

Thoughts on Parashat Ki Tisa
Our parasha for this week tells one of the most famous of Biblical stories – the story of the Israelite betrayal – the story of the Golden Calf. Impatient Israelites couldn’t wait any longer for Moses’ comeback from Mount Sinai, to the extent that they lost the hope that he would ever come back to them, so they decided to take the matters in their own hand.[…]
