Today’s Question: Name Change

Why is it that out of the three Avos, Avraham and Yisrael had their names changed (from Avram and Yaakov)but Yitzchok’s name remained without change?


Yesterday’s Question: Wednesday Blessing

Which Beracha, blessing, can only be recited on a Wednesday?

Our Answer:

Birchas HaChamah!

This unique Beracha (Osay Maaseh Berashis) is made every twenty-eight years on a Wednesday when the sun is found in the precise position that it was placed at the time that Hashem created the world. It will be recited this year on the morning of Erev Pesach on Wednesday April 8, 2009! You don’t want to miss it!
