Rabbi Emanuel Shahar receives inquiries about home blessings, prayer and spiritual guidance for a new beginning.<\/p>\n<h2>More than a new address<\/h2>\n<p>Moving brings excitement, practical preparations and sometimes worries. Alongside the arrangements, you can reflect on the character of your home: a place of hospitality, learning, family peace and respectful relationships. Asking for a blessing expresses these values and the hope for a good life at home.<\/p>\n<h2>What you can discuss with the Rabbi<\/h2>\n<p>You can inquire about dedicating a home, appropriate prayers and customs, and options for spiritual support. Before setting a meeting, agree directly on its nature, location and date. This page does not promise a home visit or a particular ritual; details are established in conversation.<\/p>\n<h2>For the home you already live in, too<\/h2>\n<p>You need not wait for a move to renew your attention to home. A family change, a return to routine or a wish to set aside time for prayer can be a reason to inquire. Begin with a short description of the occasion and your request, while respecting the wishes and customs of other household members.<\/p>\n<aside style=\"margin-top:36px;padding:26px;background:#efe5d5;border-right:3px solid #a77d45\">\n<h2 style=\"margin-top:0\">A personal inquiry to the Rabbi<\/h2>\n<p>For information and to arrange a conversation with Rabbi Emanuel Shahar, contact us on WhatsApp and mention the subject of your inquiry.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wa.me\/972583328293\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#6b5036;color:#fff9ef;padding:12px 22px;text-decoration:none\">Contact us on WhatsApp: 058-3328293 \u2190<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?cat=139&#038;lang=en\">All specialties \u2190<\/a><\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/p>\n<footer class=\"es-footer\">\n<p>Rabbi Emanuel Shahar \u00b7 Tiferet Malchut Shlomo<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=20352&#038;lang=en\">About the Rabbi<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=50002&#038;lang=en\">Terms of use<\/a><\/p>\n<nav class=\"es-langs\" aria-label=\"Language\"><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=22&#038;lang=he\" hreflang=\"he\" lang=\"he\">\u05e2\u05d1\u05e8\u05d9\u05ea<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=1052&#038;lang=en\" hreflang=\"en\" lang=\"en\" aria-current=\"page\">English<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=1053&#038;lang=fr\" hreflang=\"fr\" lang=\"fr\">Fran\u00e7ais<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=1054&#038;lang=ar\" hreflang=\"ar\" lang=\"ar\">\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a\u0629<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=20074&#038;lang=es\" hreflang=\"es\" lang=\"es\">Espa\u00f1ol<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=20369&#038;lang=fa\" hreflang=\"fa\" lang=\"fa\">\u0641\u0627\u0631\u0633\u06cc<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/emanuelshahar.com\/?page_id=20374&#038;lang=tr\" hreflang=\"tr\" lang=\"tr\">T\u00fcrk\u00e7e<\/a><\/nav>\n<\/footer>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entering a new home is an opportunity to pause, give thanks and express what you hope to build there.
