Eisenkot Set to Receive Mandate to Form Government Amidst Complex Options

President Isaac Herzog will task Gadi Eisenkot with forming Israel's next government on Sunday, after Eisenkot received 67 recommendations compared to Benjamin Netanyahu's 46. Eisenkot will first attempt to form a coalition with the "Change Bloc" parties, but faces significant challenges, including potential disagreements with Haredi and Arab parties over conscription and political stances. An alternative unity government with Likud seems unlikely, and if Eisenkot fails, Netanyahu may receive the mandate, or Israel could head to new elections.

Living Through Time: Lessons on Meaningful Existence

The article explores the concept of living a meaningful life by actively engaging with time, drawing parallels from the Torah portions "Chayei Sarah" and "Vayechi." It contrasts letting time pass with living within it, using the story of an elderly man unable to recall significant life events as a cautionary tale. The lives of Sarah and Abraham are presented as examples of individuals who lived each day fully, retaining youthful virtues and maturity. The piece highlights the importance of utilizing every moment, citing anecdotes of rabbis who dedicated themselves to study even in the face of inconvenience, ultimately suggesting that purposeful engagement with time leads to a form of eternal significance.
