tag: olive trees Sorted Chronologically (old to new). Sort most recent first? A Tu biShvat seder supplement recognizing the Israeli-Jewish settler violence and land theft under the State of Israel’s military occupation of the West Bank. Categories: Tags: 21st century C.E., 58th century A.M., ecoḥasid, English vernacular prayer, ארץ ישראל Erets Yisrael, Israeli-Jewish settler violence, Israeli–Palestinian conflict, land theft, מדינת ישראל Medinat Yisrael, Needing Translation (into Hebrew), olive trees, فلسطين Filasṭīn Palestine Contributor(s): The Tu Bishvat seder is a metaphor. But usually we use metaphor in our daily lives to accomplish, persuade, inspire or explain. There is something we’re bending metaphor to accomplish. This meditation is an exercise in free-thinking. Here, just play with metaphor for the sake of expressing and exploring your emotional state, history, anticipations and apprehensions. Each of the quotations from the Torah or rabbinical writings below represents an emotion. After we say the blessing over the olives, read the quotations, pick one (or more) that resonate, and play with the metaphor to reach a deeper understanding of yourself and others.
