Israel’s Mysterious 7 Watershed Moments

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called “Israel’s Mysterious 7 Watershed Moments.”

G-d works in mysterious ways, but occasionally He reveals Himself to us to impart His holiness and perfection to the world.

As we know, seven represents the miraculous days of G-d’s creation of the heavens and earth and his rest on the holy seventh day of Shabbat. Additionally, in Kabbalah, seven represents the number of lower sephirot, which are the divine manifestations or emanations of G-d present in this world.

We shall see that many of Israel’s watershed moments have happened over many decades in years ending in the number seven (7) — many in both the English and Hebrew calendars.
