PICTURE OF THE DAY - THIS IS SUPER SPECIAL Eliya was released from Hamas captivity after 504 days - most of which he was held in a cage. He was reunited with his parents and they flew to the hospital by helicopter. This picture shows Eliya and his mother in the helicopter - reading Tehilim (Psalms), the words written by King David in Jerusalem 3,000 years ago. The same book that gave us the words to recite while we prayed for Eliya’s survival and release, gave him (and all of us) the words to recite to express his gratitude to God for his release. We have been reading those special words for thousands of years - praying for God’s salvation in times of sadness and giving thanks to God in times of joy. The nation of Israel lives!
