Do you know what the Torah is referring to when it says, “You must not partake of it, in order that it may go well with you and with your descendants to come, for you will be doing what is right in the sight of the Lord”? Ramaz eighth grader Avi Flatto-Katz knows! And as this year’s national middle school Chidon HaTanach winner, he knows much more than the answer is “blood.”
After competing among 500 contestants from over 80 schools across the country, Avi will be among four American contestants in Israel next year, representing the United States in next year’s international bible competition. He also won last year when he was a seventh grader.

The Bible Society of Nigeria (BSN) says it has set May 5 as National Day for the celebration of the Bible.
The General Secretary/CEO of BSN, Dr Dare Ajiboye, stated this at a news conference on Thursday in Lagos.
Ajiboye said that setting a day for the celebration of the Bible had become imperative in order to encourage people to reflect on and imbibe the values prescribed in the Holy Book.
According to him, it is clear from the scriptures that celebration is a spiritual discipline that God desires for people to practise.
“It is good and proper to have special times to celebrate God’s word, to create awareness and enjoin every Nigerian to participate in this worthy event,” Ajiboye said.

Today begins a week of memory and commemoration in Israel. Tuesday evening, April 13 begins Memorial Day for Fallen Soldiers concluding with the celebrations of Independence Day on Wednesday evening through Thursday, April 14th (a day early this year because of the Shabbat).
I have often wondered why we spend so much time reliving these heartbreaking events. Surely the people who lived through these traumas do not need a day to remember, they live everyday with memories.
During memorial days my grandfather would take me to visit the graves of his friends and loved ones. He pointed out the people he knew from the town where he grew up; a man who helped build the local synagogue, the butcher who lived across from the Jewish community center. Each grave marked with a Jewish star represented a unique life, a life that had left its mark on my grandfather.
