Hey, Hillel here.
This newsletter puts together a little bit about what’s been happening in Israel over the last week. We try to keep it positive.  That’s why it’s the Good Newsletter.

Another week in the books.  It seems like there’s never a dull moment in this country.  Tuesday morning, we felt the tremors of an earthquake near Greece.  The government is in uproar of a proposed law to keep Netanyahu from getting back in office.  Colin Powell passed away this week, and many have noted his affinity for Israel and the Jewish people.  

The image above is Nir Distenfeld.  Nir is an antiquities inspector, and he got a treat this week when a scuba diver turned in a 900-year-old sword in the waters off the coast of the Carmel Mountains.  Cool stuff. Nir is a registered tour guide but only in Hebrew.  If that works for you, maybe consider him for your next visit.  

We’re still anticipating the yoreh, which means the first rains of the season. The last rain is the malkosh.  That’s what we’re saying in Shema, that it should rain on time at the beginning and end of the season.  Note:  We just had a 2-minute shower as I’m writing this, now it’s sunny again.
