Quote of the Day

Learning about Judaism and excelling in it is more important in my eyes than learning maths and sciences.... we need to be a spiritual powerhouse as well and export spiritual knowledge to the entire world. This is the next stage in our Zionist vision. This is how we will return to being a light unto the nations. For From Zion the Torah will go out, and the word of God from Jerusalem...

and then after some criticism for saying that, he added:
It astounds me that there is some sort of phobia, some sort of fear to know what is "shalom aleichem", what is kiddush, or to know what is candle-lighting. This is ours. Without knowing Tanakh we don't have any existence as a Jewish State. This is our foundation and God forbid a generation should arise that does not know these things..

  -- Minister of Education Naftali Bennet
