The Blessing of a Fruit Tree!

Published on: 7th April, 2021

Once a year, we have a beautiful opportunity to say a blessing over a fruit tree...even if we can (and should!) ENJOY the trees and their luscious fruits year round. I was able to say that blessing just this week, and I want to share with you the BEAUTY of its words, and more broadly, of the Jewish vision of a world filled with GENUINE gifts presented to us personally and purposefully by G-d...to ENJOY! It's a goal worth striving for: living our lives making, and feeling surrounded by, blessings.

About the Podcast

Rabbi E in 3
A Burst of Jewish Wisdom!
Get ready for a short burst of Jewish wisdom! My name is Rabbi Yosef Edelstein ("Rabbi E" for short), and I have been a Jewish educator for many years. I share insights from Jewish sources that help can help us become better people (and Jews) in our daily lives. I grew up the son of two doctors, and while I didn't choose that path professionally, I do hope that these short episodes (from 3 to 8 minutes roughly) will administer a safe and powerful dose of "spiritual medicine," in a friendly and casual way!
Currently, I am the Director of MEOR DC, that brings Jewish inspiration to university campuses in the nation's capital. (Check out the MEOR DC Facebook and Instagram page.)
