The synagogue, placed in the renewed settlement of Homesh, will serve families that have moved there in recent months following the cancellation of the Disengagement Law. The placement comes on a symbolic date, as Israel marks 21 years since the expulsion from Gush Katif and northern Samaria. Beni Gal, a resident and founder of Homesh First, said the synagogue adds 'a building in the power of holiness' during the Three Weeks.
This afternoon, the settlement of Homesh in northern Samaria installed a synagogue in the renewed settlement, marking 21 years since the expulsion from Gush Katif and northern Samaria under the Disengagement Plan. The synagogue will serve families who have moved to the settlement in recent months following the cancellation of the Disengagement Law. Beni Gal, a resident and founder of the 'Homesh First' headquarters, said: 'Precisely during the days when the people of Israel mark the Three Weeks and the 21 years since the expulsion from Gush Katif and northern Samaria, there is nothing more fitting than adding a building in the power of holiness.' The placement comes ahead of a planned inauguration ceremony in the month of Elul, with a Torah scroll donated to the site, as the settlement continues to absorb new families.
