Shalom! World. Today is: Thursday, Tevet 23, 5774 · December 26, 2013. Following the death of King Joao of Portugal in 1494, his son King Manuel I ascended the throne. When his legitimacy as heir to the throne was challenged, Manuel wished to marry Princess Isabel of Spain, daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella, in order to solidify his position. As a precondition to the marriage, the Spanish monarch demanded that Portugal expel its Jews—many of whom were refugees from the 1492 Spanish Expulsion who found refuge in the neighboring country of Portugal. Manuel agreed, and five days after the marriage agreement was signed, on Tevet 23 (5257), he issued a decree giving Portugal's Jews eleven months to leave the country. Appreciating the Jews' economic value, Manuel was unhappy with the potential loss of this economic asset, and devised a way to have the Jews stay in Portugal—but as Christians. Initially, he instructed the Jews to leave from one of three ports, but soon he

Shalom! World. As horas que Kafka, quando criança, passou ao lado do pai na Synagoga foram "bocejadas" e "cochiladas". Somente a influência de seus amigos de estudo, Max Brod e Hugo Bergmaann, ambos sionistas convictos desde jovens, deve ter despertado em Kafka o profundo interesse por questões judaicas. Ele passou a estudar hebraico durante algum tempo e manteve contato com a Associação de estudantes Judeus Bar-Kochba. Jizchak Löwy, líder do Jiddisches Theater (Teatro Ídiche), impressionou profundamente Kafka. Em pouco tempo, desenvolveu-se entre os dois uma relação de amizade. Kafka acreditava ter encontrado nesse Judeu hassídico de Varsóvia a autenticidade que ele julgava perdida no Judaísmo ocidental assimilado por seu pai. Ele passou a inserir temas Judaicos em suas obras e a devorar livros sobre as questões da religião: "Comecei hoje a ler com avidez e felicidade a História de Judaísmo de Grätz. Shalom! Aleichem.

  Shalom! World.   L'histoire sidérante que révèle l'hebdomadaire allemand Focus dans son édition du 4 novembre commence par hasard. Dans un train entre Munich et la Suisse, en septembre 2010, les douaniers allemands contrôlent un voyageur.
