Shabbat Shalom Substack Friends 🕯️🕯️
I posted my Shabbat Reflection this morning and invite you to read it.
https://hebrewbyinbal.substack.com/p/the-second-sentence-what-happens?r=2at7n8&utm_medium=ios
It centers around the question, “But what if?” that has plagued me for years.
If you’re observing, may your Shabbat be meaningful and restful. Happy weekend to all.

Not typically a fan of Rabbi Ruttenberg, but this is an interesting, provocative thought-piece.
"Nobody would think twice about demanding a #reasonableaccommodation if #corporations asked #Jews to start violating #Shabbat or partaking of the #pork BBQ at the #company retreat against their own practice. And while I would not demand that every #Jew request such an #accommodation (for Shabbat or keeping #kosher), they should absolutely have that option available, even if their #religious practice is a work in progress. So too, here.
And despite seeing many people (including religious Jews!) eliding the moral and religious issues around #AI because "that train has already left the station," we should make choices based on whether they are right or wrong. Also, it's a fallacy: Movements grow from dissent."

They're going to use this very legitimate issue to fuck America over.
"The #US #SupremeCourt has agreed to hear the case of #DanielGrand, an #Orthodox #Jew from #Ohio who says local authorities barred him from holding #Jewish #prayer gatherings at his home and that neighbors harassed him over the practice.
The decision by the nation’s highest court to take up the case is considered highly unusual in the #American #legal system, as the Supreme Court hears only about 50 cases a year.
The dispute began in 2021. Grand, who lives in #UniversityHeights, wanted to pray with a #minyan, the quorum of 10 Jewish men required for certain communal prayers. Because Jewish law prohibits driving on #Shabbat and holidays, and the local #synagogue was too far away to reach on foot, he decided to host worshippers in his private home."

"Every so often, a discovery comes along that reminds us how much of #Jewish #history still lies hidden on library shelves, in forgotten archives, and within private collections. For collectors, scholars, and anyone fascinated by the world of rare #Hebrew #books and #manuscripts, such moments are exceedingly rare. This is one of them.
An entirely unknown, previously unpublished eighteenth-century #Kabbalistic #manuscript has surfaced from a private collection and has now been officially consigned for sale through #Mizrahi #Bookstore. More than simply another #handwritten volume, this remarkable #codex opens an extraordinary window into the formative years of #Lurianic #Kabbalah in Eastern #Europe, decades before these teachings became widely available in print.
The manuscript is a unique recension of the Lurianic #Kavvanot, the intricate mystical intentions associated with prayer, for #Shabbat and the Jewish festivals. Dated to 1717[...]"

One of my favorite expressions in Hebrew is:
כְּשֶׁיֵּשׁ סָפֵק אֵין סָפֵק
/k-she-’yesh sa-’fek ’e(y)-n sa-’fek/
When in doubt, there is no doubt.
The doubt itself is often the answer.
We spend so much time trying to talk ourselves out of what we already know. Looking for reassurance. Hoping someone else will make it feel right.
But doubt is not the same as fear.
Some of the best decisions I’ve ever made scared me. They pushed me beyond my comfort zone and into growth. Fear can be part of something wonderful.
Doubt feels different. It’s quieter. Heavier. It doesn’t demand attention. It simply waits for you to listen.
The more you learn to recognize the difference, the clearer life becomes.
Your intuition usually knows long before your mind catches up.
כְּשֶׁיֵּשׁ סָפֵק אֵין סָפֵק
When in doubt, there is no doubt.
Shabbat Shalom,
Inbal 🤍

Sorry, but #Trump doesn't get to tell Jews what to do.
I say that we should not observe Shabbat on May 15-16 out of "gratitude for our great nation," (because nationalism is idolatry) but rather for very different reasons --- as a day of living into a different set of values, ones that escew nationalism and war. #Shabbat should never be used as an excuse to bow the knee to a tyrant.
Excerpt: Throughout this historic year, we rejoice in the triumph of the American spirit and rededicate ourselves to the cause of liberty and justice for all. In special honor of 250 glorious years of American independence and on the weekend of Rededicate 250 — a national jubilee of prayer, praise, and thanksgiving — Jewish Americans are encouraged to observe a national Sabbath. From sundown on May 15 to nightfall on May 16, friends, families, and communities of all backgrounds may come together in gratitude for our great Nation. This day will recognize the sacred Jewish tradition of setting aside time for rest, reflection, and gratitude to the Almighty.

Shabbat Shalom שבת שלום
As the week winds down, here’s your gentle reminder to pause.
Not because everything is done — but because you deserve a moment to breathe.
To unplug.
To be present.
To trade doing for just being.
Whether you light candles, take a walk, share a meal, or sit quietly with your thoughts — let this be your reset.
A time to reconnect with yourself, your people, and what truly matters.
Wishing you peace, calm, and a full heart this weekend.
Shabbat Shalom to all who could use a little stillness and light.

Shabbat Shalom 💙
This week felt like a marathon.
So much happening, so many emotions, and honestly, I barely had time to catch my breath.
But now, here comes the pause — this built-in moment to step back, exhale, and just be.
No matter how the week went — whether it was productive or chaotic, uplifting or exhausting — this pause arrives, untouched by everything that came before it.
A reset.
A reminder that we are more than what we accomplish, more than the worries we carry.
So as the Shabbat enters, I’m embracing the quiet, letting a warm glow fill the space.
A small moment, but powerful enough to shift everything.
I hope you find a moment to unplug, to breathe deeply, and to soak in the peace that this time brings.
Shabbat Shalom, with love,
Inbal 💙🤍 -
Shabbat Shalom!
Shabbat isn’t just about resting — it’s about resetting.
It’s a gift of time to celebrate our efforts, release what’s heavy, and focus on what truly matters.
Let this Shabbat be a moment to embrace the quiet, honor your journey, and find strength in the pause.
Whether you spend it with family, friends, or in peaceful solitude, know that this sacred time is a chance to reconnect — with yourself, with others, and with the beauty of life.
Here’s to a Shabbat filled with clarity, gratitude, and renewal.
Shabbat Shalom! ✨🌿

Wishing you a Shabbat full of warmth, clarity, and inspiration. You deserve it 💛

I feel like @challahprince is as passionate about simplifying challah making as I am about simplifying Hebrew learning.

Shabbat Shalom 💙🤍
Whether you celebrate Shabbat weekly, occasionally, or simply take this as a reminder to slow down, I hope today brings you peace, reflection, and a sense of renewal.
Think of this time as a gift to yourself — a chance to look inward, appreciate the good, and let go of any stress or pressure that’s been weighing on you.
Sometimes, in the busyness of life, we forget to rest, to reconnect, and to just *be*.
So, this Shabbat, embrace this space for stillness, for gratitude, for connection with those around you, or even for a quiet moment on your own.
May you feel uplifted, cherished, and ready to step back into the week ahead, refreshed and inspired.
Shabbat Shalom 🌿 שבת שלום

Shabbat Shalom, my friends.
As we enter this Shabbat, surrounded by the beauty of Sukkot and on the cusp of Simchat Torah, I can't help but reflect on the intense emotions swirling around us.
It's been one year since the horrific events of October 7th, and while the person responsible for so much of that devastation is no longer with us, the scars remain.
Every morning, I open the news, holding my breath — fearing a new catastrophe, yet clinging to hope for the miracle of good news.
I know many of you feel the same.
In this delicate space of both sorrow and hope, I wish you a Shabbat filled with peace, comfort, and all that you need to feel whole.
May this time bring only good news and a sense of renewal as we move forward together, stronger than ever.
Shabbat Shalom שבת שלום

There's something about the ambiance of a cozy café, with the soothing hum of quiet conversations and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, that feels like a small sanctuary in our busy lives.
Imagine sitting by the window of your favorite coffee shop, a cup of perfectly brewed coffee in hand. The warmth from the cup spreads to your fingers, a gentle reminder of life's simple comforts.
Each sip brings a moment of peace, an opportunity to pause and savor the here and now. In these moments, surrounded by the soft clatter of cups and the murmur of fellow coffee lovers, there's a sense of community and a shared appreciation for life's small joys.
As we step into Shabbat, let's carry with us this sense of warmth and connection.
Let's remember that, just like a visit to our beloved coffee shop, Shabbat is a time to slow down, to reflect, and to cherish the quiet moments that give depth to our lives.Shabbat Shalom שבת שלום

In 2024, Israel has one dialect. One pronunciation. Which makes things so much easier! 😃
Some people pronounce Hebrew words in Yiddish or using other dialects or pronunciations.
My expertise in teaching you Hebrew as it is used by Israelis in Israel, today... the one dialect / pronunciation we have in Israel of 2024 🇮🇱

Tomorrow is Rosh Hashanah, and I am currently working on my menu and doing what prep I can tonight.
I generally don't do much with my religion, but the antisemitism lately has been so damn rampant, I've decided I'm just going to Jew harder.
Anyway, my current plans for food are pot roast, onion noodle kugel, apple and honey challah, and homemade apple cider.
Any good ideas what I can add to this? We have a decent pantry and I don't want to go shopping-- so just hit me with what you've got and I'll find something that works.
