What if the miracle you're praying for begins with a shovel in your hands?
In 2 Kings 3, the prophet Elisha brings water to three desperate armies in the wilderness, but first he commands them to dig ditches in a dry valley.
Join Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel for a powerful exploration of biblical prophecy, teshuva (repentance and return), and what this ancient story reveals about the Jewish people's return to the Land of Israel today.
In this chapter, we explore: -Elisha, the prophet of water: How his first miracles contrast with Elijah's fire and reveal the power of humble service. -The power of joy and music: Why the Sages teach that prophecy and the Divine Presence are connected to a joyful heart. -Digging ditches in a dry valley: What 2 Kings 3:16–17 teaches us about faith, action, and preparing for blessings we cannot yet see. -Israel's enemies and the power of unity: Why Moab misreads the miracle and how this ancient story speaks to the Jewish people in our own generation. -Teshuva and the return to the Land: Why a miracle cannot do our spiritual work for us, and what it means to keep returning to Hashem and the Land of Israel.

JCAP (the Jerusalem Center for Applied Policy) researches, advances policies and advocates for Jerusalem as Israel's sovereign and indivisible capital- and more. Founder and president Chaim Silberstein speaks with Eve Harow about little known issues that have dangerous ramifications. For example, the Arab population of the city now stands at 40%. How can Jerusalem be reconfigured and built up as to minimize the potential of a ‘democratic’ coup? Erdogan of Turkey, with Qatari complicity, is building a Sunni ring around Israel whose goal is to anoint him as Caliphate of an Empire with Jerusalem at the center. Iran and its proxies remain a major nuclear threat to the West. With France burning, JCAP’s global diplomatic efforts are becoming increasingly critical to educate allies that Israel’s enemies are theirs as well. Their research provides valuable insights into what’s coming next and how to avoid the consequences of inaction.
Are we witnessing biblical prophecy unfold in Israel today?
