May there be peace

Here's Shalsheles with Y'hi Shalom (May there be peace), which is from the Sabbath prayers everywhere (here in Israel we also say it during the week, because we're happier than those of you abroad, and therefore we can say the portion of the incense (ktoreth) every day).

Let's go to the videotape.

Shabbat Shalom everyone.

Overnight music video

So we're in wedding season for six weeks. I had two Thursday night, one Sunday night, and I have one Tuesday night. And that's from last Thursday through this week, so far....

Here's Shalsheles with their version of Mi Bon Siach, which is played while the bride walks around the groom seven times under the chupa (bridal canopy) to show that he is now the center of her life. And no, there is no reciprocity....

Let's go to the videotape.

Okay, so you want the words:

Mi ban siach shoshan chochim,

ahavas kallah, m'sos dodim,

hu yivarech es hechasan v'es hakallah

מִי בן שיח שושן חוחים,

אהבת כלה, משוש דודים,

הוא יברך את החתן ואת הכלה

Translation:

He who understands the speech of the rose among thorns, the love of a bride, who is the joy of the beloved ones, may He bless the groom and bride.

Holiday and Sabbath music video

As many of you know, the holiday is followed immediately by the Sabbath, and therefore, as you probably figured out, this is the last post until Saturday night.

Here's Shalsheles with Mi Kamocha, which is part Shirat HaYam (the Song of the Sea), which we read on Friday (the day it happened) and part morning and evening prayers.

Let's go to the videotape.

Chag Sameyach and Shabbat Shalom to everyone.
