From Odyssey Networks’ Faith on the Record series: This week the bodies of 3 Israeli teenagers who had been missing for several weeks were found in a field not far from where they were last seen. The murder of Eyal Yifrach, Naftali Frenkel and Gilad Shaar has ignited passions across the world and from different political camps. But this is not the time for politics and posturing. Instead it is a time to sit shiva and ensure that nobody is left alone in their moments of suffering and that somehow eventually life does win out over death.
For Irwin Kula’s reflections on this, please read his article, Wisdom in the Face of Terror: For Naftali, Gilaad and Eyal.
