Shalom ImminiHOST
And the Aravah, with neither taste or aroma, represents the Jew who neither studies Torah or keeps the mitzvahs.
Shalom ImminiHOST
Aside from the Esreg representing the Jew that combines knowledge with action, Torah and mitzvahs, there is another unique quality, and it comes from the way the Esreg grows.
Shalom ImminiHOST
