Chazal say that one of the reasons Moshe Rabbeinu's kever was hidden was because Hashem knew someday the Jews would fall deep into sin and instead of destroying them He would have to destroy the Beit HaMikdash. However if the Jews would pray at Moshe's kever than Hashem would sort of speak have to oblige in Moshe's zchut and then would instead have to take out the punishment on Am Yisrael directly. This teaches us that the zchut of the Temple ITSELF wasn't enough to protect it (and surely it is holier than the mishkan), however the zchut of Moshe's kever would have been. So there is definitely room to say kevrei tzaddikim are holier than other sites, however why don't we promote more prayer in all of our holy spots equally?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04684326021993960871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-16072429726451572662013-11-21T12:01:35.232+02:002013-11-21T12:01:35.232+02:00Batya, from some of your posts I've seen you s...Batya, from some of your posts I've seen you seem to have a wariness to kivrei tzaddikim. It may not personally be your "thing" but I feel it's a little disrespectful to refer to the resting place of our mother Rachel as just "a dead body." I'm not sure what experts feel that Kever Rachel is not the true location but the fact you said "experts" and chachamim makes me raise an eyebrow. I'm not the type of person who automatically throws out the opinion of secular authorities just for the sake of doing it but I know Rav Mordecahi Eliyahu up until a few years before his death would daven at Kever Rachel and I trust him more than an archeologist on the matter.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04684326021993960871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-75578000667566042882013-11-21T11:40:03.026+02:002013-11-21T11:40:03.026+02:00Batya,

Charge 36 nis for the round trip to the Tel, maybe have someone speak on the bus about shiloh and the Tel. Get pre-subscribed, you will know what your minimum commitment will be. Offer an option of a box lunch or snak, can be provided by the coffee shop at the Tel etc. Then post on FB and other Yahoo/Google groups.Hillel Levinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301924970969876523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-91770178339528810052013-11-21T05:30:47.062+02:002013-11-21T05:30:47.062+02:00shelley, yes must do

To get the bus if all your readers contributed $10.00, it would be a start to getting the money to acquire the special bus needed for the trip, and also those who would use the bus could pay a fare?<br />stella c.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-58298609998965551312013-11-20T20:34:54.932+02:002013-11-20T20:34:54.932+02:00Talk to the hanhala of the tel.Talk to the hanhala of the tel.Shellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08444647725731481144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-25880921673110235012013-11-20T20:20:59.268+02:002013-11-20T20:20:59.268+02:00G-d willing...G-d willing...Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-10106576541530983042013-11-20T20:14:30.138+02:002013-11-20T20:14:30.138+02:00As the saying goes "From your mouth, to G-d&#...As the saying goes "From your mouth, to G-d's ears".
