Jerusalem with Yom Kippur on Shabbat

Jerusalem with Yom Kippur on Shabbat

Jerusalem, Israel will be quiet.

Yom Kippur falls on Shabbat this year,

from Friday evening until after Saturday sundown.

No traffic on the roads.

Businesses will be closed.

Bus from Old City with sign Gmara Hatima Tova

The sign on this standing-room-only crowded bus

leaving the Kotel, the Western Wall, said

 “G’mar Hatima Tova”

wishing all to be sealed for a good year.

Shabbat Shalom.

Well over the fast, as they say in Australia

Shabbat Shalom

With hurricanes and typhoons

affecting so many millions of people,

I have spent the day trying to decide,

what would be best Shabbat shalom greeting.

Sign Shabbat Shalom

Simple flowers,

Shabbat shalom with flowers

or colorful flowers,

image Shabbat Shalom

The kotel, Western Wall,

Yemin Moshe bride and groom, shabat shlam

Shabbat as a bride,

image shabat shalom and love

or love?

As we get closer to sunset,

Jerusalem Israel winter sunset with clouds Shabbat shalom

I am still not certain, but

Old City Jerusalem, Israel view for Shabat shalom poster

 from Jerusalem – Shabbat Shalom.

שבת שלום
