25.01.2022 The focus of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur is the day-long prayers - beseeching for a sweet new year, happiness and prosperity, Divine forgiveness for our sins, and health for our families and all Jews worldwide. We have Machzorim of every kind, to suit everyone - Ashkenaz, Sefarad, Ari, and Edot Hamizra; Hebrew alone, with English translation, and with English transliteration; pulpit size, large, medium, and pocket size; and even children's Machzorim for the (not too boisterous) youngsters. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #machzorim #machzor #jewishprayer #chagim #tishrei #roshhashana #yomkippur #ashkenaz #nusachashkenaz #sefarad #nusachsefarad #ari #nusachari #chabad #lubavitch #edothamizrach #hebrewenglish @ Golds World of Judaica

24.01.2022 There are abundant great men who leave a lasting impact on their community, their city, or even their entire country - but very few great men have influenced their entire generation: Rav Noach Weinberg, Rosh Yeshivah of Aish Hatorah, was one of those individuals. A visionary leader who saw the entire Jewish world as his responsibility, he revolutionised outreach, becoming a spiritual mentor and father to tens of thousands of students, and an eternal inspiration to Kiruv movem...ents across the globe. His biography lets us take a glimpse into the man behind the global movement, and inspires us to do what we can to continue his dream. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #biography #jewishbooks #jewishbiography #aishhatorah #ravnoachweinberg #kiruv #jonathanrosenblum #greatgreatgreatuncle

24.01.2022 Some of us have swam through the sea of the Talmud many times, some have finished it once, and some are only starting - regardless of your level, the newly released "Introduction to the Talmud", from the editors of the Artscroll Talmud, will doubtlessly enhance your journey. In this complementary volume (available in both full size and medium size), the reader is introduced to a wide range of information underlying the Talmud. Among the many topics covered: Who were all of the Tanna'im and Amora'im? What was the political and social world they lived in? How were the Mishnah and Talmud compiled? What lies behind the layout of the Talmud folio? #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #talmud #gemara #talmudicperiod #talmudbavli #mishna #tannaim #amoraim #dafyomi #artscroll #artscrollshas #schottenstein

21.01.2022 The Kittel, the unique white robe worn on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, is a rousing symbol of human frailty and mortality - but also a symbol of the purity we strive to achieve through our prayers, repentance, and charitable acts. With only 3 more weeks until Rosh Hashanah, now is the time to start getting prepared, both spiritually and physically. We supply top-quality Kittels in 4 different sizes - Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large.... #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishclothing #kittel #roshhashana #yomkippur #hoshanaraba #tishrei #teshuva #tefillah #tzedakah @ Golds World of Judaica

20.01.2022 We've been celebrating the Chagim since childhood, but what is the inherent meaning of the various Mitzvot we perform and the emotions and feelings that each festival brings? What lies behind the practices, customs, and prayers that the upcoming months bring? In this book, Lord Rabbi Jonathan Sacks approaches these questions , fusing tradition, philosophy, and modern thought, giving us a profound and deep understanding of the Chagim. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #chagim #jewishfestival #highholidays #roshhashanah #yomkippur #sukkot #pesach #shavuot #jewishthought #jewishphilosophy #jonathansacks #rabbijonathansacks #lordjonathansacks

19.01.2022 The Shabbat meal is over, and the lights have gone out - but thanks to innovative technology, that won't stop you from studying, reading, or walking around the house without injuring yourself. These lamps have a safe sliding shutter, which allows you to adjust the lighting on Shabbat - anywhere between full illumination to total darkness. The lamp is flexible, and attaches to any surface with with vacuum pads. The lamps are available in a variety of colours, to suit every roo...m - and as it uses LED, the power consumption is very low. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishgifts #shabbat #shabbos #shabbatlamp #orleshabbat #shabbatinyourhome #shabbatlights

19.01.2022 Only two weeks left until Rosh Hashanah - but the children are all stuck at home, and remote learning just isn't the same. So how can you make sure that your children knows everything important about the upcoming Chagim?

18.01.2022 Everybody has unique difficulties in their life - and although we constantly pray for Divine help and salvation, it often seems that only a miracle can solve our problems. But what if we approached God in a different way? Maybe we should be thanking Him for the countless treasures He's been providing us throughout our lives, instead of demanding more gifts? Rabbi Shalom Arush - author of The Garden of Emunah, the profound book which has changed hundreds of thousands of lives ...- gives us an illuminating approach towards prayer, leading the reader along a journey through hundreds of inspiring stories, that will raise us to a greater level in our gratitude to God. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #jewishinspiration #jewishthought #inspirationalbooks #gratitudetogod #miraclesfromheaven #thegardenofemuna #rabbishalomarush #shalomarush #breslev #rabbinachman #likuteimoharan #sipureimaasiot #rabbinatan #likuteihalachos

18.01.2022 Eating and cooking Kosher food is one of the foundations of every Jewish home - but even for those who have studied the detailed laws of Kashrut, their practical application can be extremely confusing. This book presents the principles of Kashrut and how they apply in day-to-day life in a very clear and comprehensive manner, showing the reader how to recognise common issues and avoid problematic situations. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #halacha #jewishlaw #jewishhalacha #kosher #kosherfood #kosherkitchen #kosherlaws #kashrut #lawsofkosher #meatandmilk #parve

18.01.2022 The spark of holiness resides in the soul of every Jew, but stoking the flame often requires the bellows that new and refreshing inspiration can provide. Drawn from the wellsprings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe of blessed memory, this book gives a daily dose of insights and wisdom; love of God, his Torah, and his nation; and hope and optimism for a better future. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #jewishspirituality #jewishinspiration #chassidicwisdom #torah #torahwisdom #parasha #lubavitch #lubavitcherrebbe #chabad

14.01.2022 The fifth of the Ten Commandments is to honour our father and mother, and that applies year-round. However, it isn't possible to celebrate our loving connection to our parents every day - so Father's Day, this upcoming Sunday, is the perfect opportunity to show our fathers appreciation for everything they've done for us over our lifetime. A few suitable gifts we'd like to highlight: Kiddush cups are always a welcome addition to the Shabbat table - we have a very wide range ... Mark Leibler's new biography, detailing his work with the Australian Jewish community, Zionist organisations, and many Australian Prime Ministers A coffee-table Pirkei Avot (Ethics of the Fathers), with an elucidating translation and hundreds of anecdotes Former Chief Rabbi Israel Meir Lau's classic autobiography, detailing his experiences as a child who survived the Holocaust and reached the highest Rabbinic levels #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #jewishgifts #kibbudavvaem #honouryourfatherandmother #fathersday #kiddushcup #jewishsilverware #shabbattable #shabbostable #markleibler #thepowerbroker #pirkeiavot #ethicsofthefathers #rabbilau #rabbiisraelmeirlau #israelmeirlau #chiefrabbiofisrael #outofthedepths

14.01.2022 The Torah starts by recording the stories of our forefathers, prophets, and sages - and over the thousands of years that have since passed, Jews have always turned to stories of our most illustrious men and women to provide us with inspiration, guidance, and hope. The brilliant tapestry that was Eastern European Jewry was torn apart in the Holocaust, but the stories of its greatest masters - from Lubavitch to Belz, Kotzk to Lublin, Ruzhin to Sanz - show us where we can aspire... to reach, and lead us on the pathway to self-betterment. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #jewishstories #chassidim #chassidictales #chassidicwisdom #hassidim #hassidicjews #easterneuropeanjews #baalshemtov #baalhatanya #maggidofmetzrich #lubavitch #belz #kotzk #ruzhin #sanz #peshischa #ger #slonim #karlin #lelov #lizhensk #chozehoflublin #satmar #radomsk #warka #munkács

12.01.2022 Mezuzah - the small and unobtrusive scroll of parchment which has been attached to Jewish doors for more than 4000 years - is a unique Mitzvah, a guarantee of Heavenly protection to our homes and their inhabitants. Although all Mezuzot are laboriously handwritten by God-fearing scribes, with particular commitment towards the quality of the ink and parchment, some will unfortunately deteriorate over time, especially if exposed to heat or water. If you find that the script in y...our Mezuzot has worn out - or if you're moving to a new house - we can provide you with Mezuzot in multiple sizes (7 cm, 10 cm, 12 cm) and scripts (Beit Yosef, Ari, Chabad, Vellish/Sephardi). #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishgifts #mezuzah #mezuzot #heavenlyprotection #jewishhome #jewishhouse #jewishdoor #stam #beityosef #ari #arizal #lubavitch #chabad #alterrebbe #shulchanaruchharav #vellish #sephardi #safrut

12.01.2022 Many communities and families have the custom to buy a new knife ahead of Rosh Hashanah, considering it a Segulah (auspicious omen) for wealth and prosperity in the upcoming year.

09.01.2022 Eating a meal as a purely physical experience is something all creatures do - they consume food so their bodies will continue to function. To rise above that level and eat as humans, we have to add a spiritual aspect to our meals - and the first stage of that is to purify and cleanse our hands, the limbs that we use to grasp onto our sustenance. We have wash cups from both aluminium and stainless steel, in a multitude of different colours and designs. We also have towels embr...oidered with the words "Al Netilat Yadayim" from the blessing. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishgifts #washcup #netilatyadayim #alnetilatyadayim #kvort #shep #reviis #seudah #shabbatmeal #artjudaica

These books tell the story of the modern Jewish settlement in Israel from three different viewpoints: portraying ho...w the nation has defended (and is constantly defending) itself against those who seek to destroy it; showing us the unique history and beauty that exists throughout the country; and giving us a glimpse into the holiest of cities, its history, and its present. #goldsjudaica #melbourne #judaica #jewishbooks #israel # #israelhistory #israelbooks #idf #israelidefenseforce #tsahal # #israelbeauty #israelpictures #jerusalem # #jerusalemhistory #jerusalembeauty #jerusalempictures
