The twelve flags of the twelve tribes of Israel: From where did they come? What did they signify? Why was Israel so desirous of these twelve flags? “He brought me to his chamber of wine, and his flag above me was love.” Song of Songs 2:4
The twelve flags were expressions of Israel’s longing to be focused on G-d and His purpose for us in this world.

Stand Tall: Entering the Land of Israel
Growing Consensus: Jewish Prayer on the Temple Mount Must be Guaranteed!
We say goodbye to the Book of Leviticus and once again find ourselves in the wilderness as we begin our reading of the Book of Numbers. Rabbi Chaim Richman and Yitzchak Reuven say fare thee well to Leviticus while taking note of Leviticus’ parting words of advice to us: Be the best you can be and the land promised you by G-d will welcome you with open arms.
Preparing for their imminent entry into the land of Israel the children of Israel raise their tribal banners and take their rightful places side by side, encircling the Holy Tabernacle within. Today in the land of Israel more and more Jews are raising the banner of G-d and and streaming in numbers to the Temple Mount, the living, breathing heart of the nation.

Keeping the Shmitta – Sabbatical – year, and the Yovel – Jubilee- in the land of Israel is an essential element of the nation of Israel’s relationship to the land of Israel, and our recognition that the land and all who dwell upon it, belong to HaShem. Recognizing that HaShem is the source of all is the secret of the Jubilee freedom we proclaim throughout the land.

This week features:
The Month Of Iyar And The Building Of The Third Temple
Fear And Loathing On The Temple Mount: Rage Against The Dying Of The Light
As the nation of Israel prepares this week to welcome the new month of Iyar – called by the Torah ‘the month of Ziv’ – this week’s Torah portion of parashat Emor features the commandment of the counting of the Omer, the seven week period leading from Passover to the Festival of Shavuot. This new month of Iyar is characterized by the theme of healing, and it also marks the anniversary of the building of the First Temple by King Solomon. In this week’s edition of Temple Talk, Yitzchak Reuven and Rabbi Richman connect these eternal themes with the aspects of this coming month that have been miraculously revealed in our day… Israel Independence Day and Jerusalem Day… and clarify the relationship between the establishment of our beloved State of Israel with the rebuilding of the Third Temple. All this on the backdrop of the shocking, unprecedented violence, intimidation and incitement that has been taking place against Jews on the Temple Mount in recent weeks. When and how will it stop? When will we retake our holy mountain? If you are interested in the truth, this is the place to hear it!
