These words have been uttered by Jews at the Passover Seder through the centuries, in בירו שלים<br />
slavery and in freedom, from Germany to New York. This year this ancient desire has become a reality for us. Not<br />
3nly have we been able to celebrate Passover in Israel, but also many other holidays both joyous and mournful.<br />
Celebrating Jewish holidays in Israel, Jerusalem in particular, is so special due to the penetrating atmosphere that<br />
surrounds each holiday.<br />

שבת<br />
in Jerusalem is ש ב ת<br />
extremely special.<br />
Even the most secular<br />
Jew cannot escape the<br />
fact th at it is שב ת , the<br />
day of rest. The Jewish<br />
part of the city closes<br />
down, the city comes<br />
to a virtual stand-still,<br />
buses stop and a<br />
relaxed atmosphere<br />
descends upon the city<br />
wih the sound of the<br />
siren. The beauty שב ת<br />
and the silence that<br />
embraces the city<br />
brings everyone a<br />
respite from a busy<br />
week.<br />
