Happy Birthday, Jewish World Review is 13!

I came for the Information but stayed for the Inspiration

Radio host Rush Limbaugh once mentioned a website called Jewish World Review [click to read] on his show. As a resident of a small town in Virginia, I felt deprived of so much good opinion writing. Binyamin Jolkovsky, who writes and edits JWR, opened up a whole new world for me. After reading JWR for a bit, I was hooked.

I came for the Information but stayed for the Inspiration. Here were articles affirming Centuries-old values and ruminations on IMAGO DEI! JWR was packed with writing on every aspect of life!

Binyamin became a treasured guest in my home every morning. He shared from his heart as he struggled through the loss of his Father and his own illness. It was a privilege to pray for his family. Through it all he continued to enrich our lives with JWR.

He only stopped to observe Holy Feasts and that too was an instructive moment. Communion with G-d was more important than the Divine mission itself. The human instrument must remember that he is a human instrument. Binyamin got that one right!

So happy birthday, JWR! Many thanks, Mr. Jolkovsky!
