BAHAY HABER

Clifford Fabro Rivera: Boker Or.
LORELAI KUDE: Asher, blessed with abundance to share generously with his brethren, is the tribal ruler of Aquarius, the sign concerned with universalism, humanitarianism, the unity of individuals within communities, the network of affinities and commonalities uniting us beyond conventionally defined borders.

SHEILA NEMTIN: Moses blesses the tribe of Asher endowing them with the ability to constantly maintain their youth and vigour as the defenders of the north.

LUIS ANTONIO GOKIM TAGLE: Coming to Rome for a universal mission at a time when the lockdown occurs — I am still in awe at the surprises of God. I bring this paradox to reflection and prayer. The situation is reeducating me about the dynamic tension between the local and the universal. We should be cautious that the lockdown, quarantine and distancing not develop into a culture of isolation, indifference and prejudice.

THE PREVIOUS HOMEOWNERS WERE THE JEWISH CLAN OF HABER. ONE OF THE SONS OF HABER VISITED AND TOLD ME THAT HE FOUND A DEAD CAT IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM WHEN HE LIVED HERE.
WIKIPEDIA: Heber or Chéver (Hebrew: חֶבֶר / חָבֶר, Modern Ḥéver / Ḥáver Tiberian Ḥéḇer / Ḥāḇer, "friend", "connected") is the grandson of the patriarch Asher mentioned at Genesis 46:17 and in Numbers 26:45. 
WIKIPEDIA: The name "Hebron" traces back to two Semitic roots, which coalesce in the form ḥbr, having reflexes in Hebrew and Amorite and denoting a range of meanings from "colleague", "unite" or "friend". In the proper name Hebron, the original sense may have been alliance.
SARA LERER: Asher’s sons will be princes (This is not stated about other tribes.)


SHMUEL RABINOWITZ: We are home with our families, little or no international travel, little to no international trade.






DORON KORNBLUTH and SETH ARONSTAM: The only mention of Akko in the Tanach is at the end of the first chapter of the Book of Judges, where, tellingly, it says, “(The Tribe of) Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of Akko…” 
Akko was a Crusader stronghold. 
More recently, Napoleon failed to defeat the Turkish Ottomans here in 1799. In 1948’s War of Independence, there were major battles here between Arabs and Jews — and to this day it is a mixed city.

It is unclear when Akko’s story started — but it very clear that is not yet complete.
The name is derived from the Hebrew name “Emek Zevulun,” lit. “Zebulun Valley,” given by Zionist pioneers to the coastal area stretching along the Bay of Acre, from Acre [Akko] to Haifa, on the incorrect assumption that the tribe of Zebulun once had its territory in this area – this land was part of the allotment of Asher, and is a coastal plain, not a valley.
Shavei Israel: What a beautiful day for a boat ride off the coast of Acre! This is only a few miles from where the Biblical Tribe of Menashe settled the land, so it feels like home form these Bnei Menashe who have returned to Israel.
liliram: Haifa
liliram: King David's Tomb
Jewish Virtual Library: In the days of David there were already intermarriages with the Phoenicians [II Chron. 2:13]. Similarly, there must have been intermingling between the tribe of Asher and the Phoenicians, for it says, "The Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites…for they did not drive them out" [Judg. 1:32], while the whole of the Valley of Acre and the southern Phoenician coast remained in Phoenician hands.

The Royal Military and Caregiver Orders of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and Saint Lazarus of United Jerusalem is an order of chivalry originally founded at a leper colony in 1098 by the Crusaders of the Ladino Kingdom of Jerusalem. It was established as a healing station to care for those afflicted with leprosy, its Knights originally being lepers themselves. The word lazarette ~ in some languages being synonymous with leprosarum ~ is believed to also be derived from the Order of Saint Lazarus, these edifices being transformed into Quarantine Camps in the fifteenth century when leprosy was no longer the scourge it had been in earlier centuries. Lazarites are a Senior Order, but it’s one of the least~known and inconspicuous Orders. Lazarites and the Caregivers of the Order of Saint John are Brotherhood organizations. 
Around the time of the Third Crusade, Lazarites sought the Fruit of Eden to cure their leprosy, since the Trees of Life are the prophetic source for healing. Since lepers cannot feel pain, Lazarites are renowned as fearless warriors, fighting even when others might have otherwise succumbed to their wounds. However, Lazarites are also exceedingly reckless. 
After the fall of Jerusalem in July 1244 and the subsequent Battle of La Forbie the following October, the Order of St. Lazarus, although still called “of Jerusalem,” migrated to Akko. The Order remained primarily a Caregiver Order but did participate in a number of battles. 
After the fall of Akko in 1291, the Knights of Lazarus departed Israel and migrated to Cyprus, then Sicily, and then to Parisia. Whilst the Templars were being purged by the Assassin King Philip IV, many nobles were eventually recruited into their ranks. King Philip provided the Lazarite order temporal guardianship. The Order ceased to be Caregivers and became purely Militaristic, although the Knights that resided in these Orders were assigned no specific tasks. By that time Pope Clement VIII had ordered two Houses: one contributed to combats on land, while the other provided galleys to fight the Turks at Sea. 
In 1816 the King of Sardinia, Victor Emmanuel I, re-established the titles of Knight and Commander of Sts. Maurice and Lazarus as peasant decorations, accessible without conditions of birth to both civilians and military men. 
The order is documented to have been definitely active philanthropically in Haifa during the mid-18th century. 
Since 1951 the Order has not been recognized officially by Italy. Notwithstanding, the revived Order of Saint Lazarus [statuted 1910] claims legacy from the suppressed branch under spiritual guardianship of the Patriarch of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church, but disputed by Roman Catholic officials of the Vatican. Today, it is granted to persons eminent in the public service, science, art, letters, trade, and charitable works. The House of Savoy in exile continues to bestow the Order.

Filipino Proverb: There is no earthly bliss not watered by tears.

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
