שְׁמוּאֵל: דָוִד בֶּן אִישׁ אֶפְרָתִי הַזֶּה מִבֵּית לֶחֶם יְהוּדָה וּשְׁמוֹ יִשַׁי וְלוֹ שְׁמֹנָה בָנִים וְהָאִישׁ בִּימֵי שָׁאוּל זָקֵן בָּא בַאֲנָשִׁים

הי אמונה אמונה היא ביטחון מלא בדברים שלהם אנו מקווים ומצב שבו אנו משוכנעים במציאותם של דברים שאיננו יכולים לראותם

Shlomo Riskin: Judaism: Why is it forbidden to count Jews?

YAAKOV MENKEN and PESACH LERNER: The problem, however, is far more essential than branding. But will they do what must be done? On the contrary, it must make demands. Only those who retained ‘Jewish substance’ retained Jewish grandchildren. Effort spent on branding could be far better spent increasing the educational opportunities for its members ~ especially the declining numbers of young adults ~ to help them meet this standard.

This time, two Filipina sisters did not hide their play from the Immigration Police. They giggled at Central Bus Station soldiers, as if the Roof to Al-Aqsa had collapsed. I must confess, I had no clue what these illegal aliens were saying. All I know is they were blaming each other, denying me a Visa to the 12th planet.


Talah Turk: Amman’s Filipinos are the luckiest, with a whole area dedicated to their community. Manila Street, also commonly known as Little Manila, and Filipino or Egyptian Neighborhood, is an area with a large concentration of Asian and Arab immigrants. In the heart of Jabal Amman, Buhturi Street descends from Second Circle– which Filipinos refer to as the Panadol Roundabout – and is full of Asian grocery shops, discount clothing stores, as well as affordable restaurants and bakeries, some of which serve authentic Filipino dishes. Amman’s Little Manila is the place to go for Filipino delicacies such as crispy chicken skin and salted eggs, in addition to Asian products and the latest Filipino movies. 

The Filipino community is by far the most organized and active amongst all guest workers’ communities in Jordan. Filipinos are raised to be caring and considerate of others, which comes through in the type of events they hold and the way the UFO (United Filipino Organization) operates. If one person has a problem, it becomes the community’s problem. 

The Indonesian community is definitely the most private and, some might say, defensive.

Aaron Koller: Scholars have had difficulty identifying the precise borders of the tribes in Transjordan, and have suggested that one reason for the difficulties in pinning down the borders of the holdings of Reuben and Gad is that tribal identities were often fluid. This means that a town, or a group of people, may consider themselves to be Reubenites one century, but Gadites the next. These changes can take place through conquest, through political realignment, through cultural influence, and through other processes; it is a truism of modern research on ethnicity that identity is created through affiliation as much, or more, than it is inherited through genealogy. 
Who is Gad? – was Gad part of Israel? an independent ethnic group? a subgroup of Moab? The anxiety over the stability of tribes settled in the Transjordan was well placed. 
Throughout the history of biblical Israel, identity was never stable, and that the borders of the nation – defining who was and who wasn’t an Israelite – were constantly shifting, especially in the multicultural Transjordan. This historical reality provides important background for understanding the concern voiced by Moses about Reuben and Gad remaining on the eastern banks. We can only conjecture how these processes affected the Israelites as a whole, but it contributed, no doubt, to the Israelites’ growing sense that being a member of the people was dependent more on culture and religion than on biology alone.
Avrahom Dovid: Gad - we regret that we are unable to show you his resting spot at this time because his tribal territory is in the political entity called Jordan.

Moishe New: When will we have the complete Land of Israel that comprises the eastern bank of the Jordan [present-day Jordan and Saudi Arabia]? That will happen in the Messianic Era. That is yet to be fulfilled.

Emmanuel Dapidran Pacquiao, PLH: Psalms 104:1
"Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty." If we look at the power and majesty of God in the right way, it changes both the way we see Him and the way we see ourselves. May God Bless everyone and have a blessed day.

Karen Bowerman: Jews have been arriving in the Philippines since the Spanish Inquisition in the 16th century 
I catch up with a local guide, Angelo Alon, for a tour of Intramuros, Manila’s historic quarter, built by the Spanish, destroyed in the Second World War but since restored with the old citadel, Fort Santiago, forming the centrepiece. 
Manila is also home to a tiny Jewish population 
The rain ricochets off the river; I note the paparazzi are in the dry. I brave it out, and, at the risk of a wobble, wave and smile. A man fires off a volley of shots then waves and smiles back. Such is my introduction to Bohol, "the Island of Friendship," in the Philippines. 
As the sky clears, my instructor, Troy, and I paddle through dripping rainforest to the small Busay Falls. Clearings reveal patterned huts woven from banana leaves. A man fishing for tilapia drops a line from a bamboo pontoon. There’s the smell of meat cooking on hot coals. 
But it’s another form of wildlife for which Bohol is known; it’s the Philippine tarsier, said to have been the inspiration for the character of Yoda in Star Wars. 
The nocturnal, fist-sized creature is among the smallest primates in the world. Its eyes cover three quarters of its head and it has an exceptionally long ‘middle finger’ or tarsus bone, hence its name. 
I creep through a forest protected by the Philippine Tarsier and Wildlife Sanctuary near Corella. Amazingly, I’m in luck; clinging with its sucker-tipped hands to a narrow branch, I spot a shy fellow snoozing. It opens its goggle eyes and almost seems to smile. 
I visit during the May-to-October wet season, when everything is green. But it’s all still pretty dramatic, as the hills seem to glow under a brooding sky. 
Modern Jeepneys are now produced with surplus engines and parts coming from Japan. The decorations are entertaining – "God is the answer," one vehicle claims. "In God’s speed," declares another. But my favourite is "Thou shalt not kill" – always worth remembering when you hit the road. 
From Manila, it’s a short flight south-west to Busuanga in the island province of Palawan, for a relaxing end to my stay. I catch a boat to the privately-owned Dicilingan Island, occupied solely by the Huma Island Resort and Spa. I’m welcomed with garlands and song, and dine on locally-caught lapu lapu and cassava cake made from a grated root vegetable, eggs and coconut milk. 
Then it’s off to my over-water villa and outdoor Jacuzzi, from where I can spy the setting sun and say a fond farewell to the Philippines.

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.
