About Rivkah’s Tent

The three miracles of Sarah’s Tent ceased upon her passing. They returned when Rivkah built her home. The miracles correspond to the three mitzvos given especially to women. It is our mandate, through the observing and beautifying these mitzvos, to bring light, peace and blessing into our homes. This year, we will delve into these mitzvos through a monthly series of textually based shiurim in memory of Rivkah Holtzberg, hy”d. Rivkah’s Tent serves as the debut year of the Rosh Chodesh Society, a new women’s division of JLI.
