Zoom Presentation: The Plants of the Hebrew Bible with Sharona Liman

Hosted By: Volunteers for Israel (VFI)

More than 100 plant species are mentioned in the Hebrew bible. Some are essential for the story, more are connected to ritual and the Temple work, and the most are used as parables and allegories. Examine some of the most well-known varieties like the seven species, and others less famous, and try to understand the meaning and the symbolism behind them.

Volunteers for Israel (VFI)

Volunteers for Israel (VFI) is the only American organization that creates opportunities for civilian volunteers to serve on Israeli Defence Force bases. VFI partners with Israeli military and civilian organizations that enable volunteers to work side-by-side with Israel's soldiers, providing non-combat support to help maintain the readiness of the IDF to defend Israel. VFI enables the IDF to allocate more of its manpower and finances to military tasks, boosts morale within the IDF, and strengthens personal connections to Israel.
