Jewish History

On Shevat 28 (134 BCE?), Antiochus V abandoned his siege of Jerusalem and his plans for the city's destruction. This day was observed as a holiday in Hasmonean times. (Megilat Taanit)

Daily Thought

All of Jewish philosophy is but an attempt to fit inside the human mind that which is contained within the heart of a simple Jew.

It will never fit.

But you must learn, contemplate, and ponder with your mind, nevertheless. Perhaps, once aware of its inadequacy, your mind will awaken the heart from its slumber.

Hayom Yom, 19 Shvat.
