FESTIVAL BOB DYLAN ON MAY 2013

Dear Brothers and Sisters

 

We have been organizing this to commemorate Bob Dylan’s birthday. First we did it in Gan Saker, then in Bruce Brill’s house, in Kfar Eldad where the Maestro Yonathan Miller, and MK Zeev Helkin live. Please contact us if you want to play at the Bob Dylan Festival.

You can play also Leonard Cohen, Paul Simon, Mark Knoppfler, Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, or your own compositions but only Jewish music please. To contact us David and Rachael Orbach 02, 6519033,054.5999228by e-mail www.davidorbach.com

 

 

This is our most popular Bob Dylan song on Israel TV around 18.000 views, “

 We are the people of Israel we just live to survive.

Our enemies say we are on their land

But all the Empires that enslaved us are gone

 Egypt and Rome even the great Babylon.

 Whenever you speak about lofty thoughts, ask yourself whether you really experience them. In your own behavior do you actually follow the principles you speak about? If not, do not stop speaking about your ideals, but elevate your behavior. 

There have been man intellectuals throughout the ages who have espoused profound philosophical ideals. They have expressed the most elevated thoughts of universal love for humanity. But in their own private lives they have been arrogant and cared only for their ideas but not for the people with whom they actually had to deal on a daily basis. This is not the Torah concept of a Talmud Chacham, a Torah scholar. To be considered a true Torah scholar and not merely someone who carries a lot of book knowledge around, one must practice the lofty ideals that they speak about. 

(Growth Through Torah by Rabbi Zelig Pliskin)
