You are about to see what Passover looks like here in the Holyland.

Passover is a Jewish holiday that commemorates the freedom of the Jews from slavery in Egypt.

The festival goes back thousands of years. It’s ca sacred and widely celebrated holiday in Judaism. During this time Jews from all across the world come together with the family to have Passover celebrations.

These celebrations include a retelling of Exodus story and a special dinner.

All to remember freedom from oppression which the Jewish people experienced for over 400 years in Egypt. But today there are some interesting things that happen across Israel to prepare for the holiday.

 

During Passover there are some ingredients that are forbidden to eat. Anything with yeast in it is forbidden like most bread. So that’s why grocery stores across Israel block off food in stores like this to keep what they call “Kasher Le Pasach”. Or in English Kosher for Passover.

 

“All taped off. Absolutely no cereal available.

And it’s pretty crazy to see the whole store like this!"

 

Keeping Kosher means that you follow the Jewish dietary law. There are foods that you can’t eat together like meat and dairy, or foods you can’t eat at all like pork. And during Passover there restrictions get even tighter. Food companies label their products like this to show that it is not only Kosher, but Kosher for Passover. And the special bread for Passover called matza is sold in the stores only during this time.

Passover celebrations and preparations are special here in Israel. And maybe it’s why every Passover Jews say “Next year in Jerusalem”

Now we want to wish you a happy holiday from Israel.

The project costs 20 billion dollars and though the bulk of the money is entails, some of it will come from the government which is throwing 52 billion dollars in subsidies of the semiconductor industry.   It’s part of the flood of money the government is directing towards industry investment in a plan to outrun China and retain economic superiority in the 21 st century.

Reading material: 02 More parking fee for larger cars?

https://www.wisdomsq.com/contents/bepod/20230703.html More parking fee for larger cars? Parking is always being a critical element in cityscapes. The vast expenses of parking lot areas in places like Walmart or within the housing projects illustrates its importance. But there is a new issue in parking landscape with two possible solutions. The dilemma: how can city officials implement varying parking charges for different cars to increase revenue while maintaining fairness for car owners? Solution one: What about charging more for cars that emit more pollutants ? It seems sensible considering global focus on climate change. Solution two: What about if we charge larger, heavier vehicles more because they consume more parking space? Both these ideas are being tested worldwide. In the UK, for example, driving a fossil fuel power dirty car in cities like London or Dublin means you'll be paying through the nose . Your parking fee would be double compared to eco-friendly vehicles.
