Jewish History

Rabbi Judah ben Bezalel Lowe, known as the Maharal of Prague was famous among Jews and non-Jews alike. He was a mystic who was revered for his holiness and Torah scholarship, as well as his proficiency in mathematics, astronomy, and other sciences. Eventually, word of his greatness reached the ears of Emperor Rudolph II.

The Emperor invited the Maharal to his castle on February 23, 1592. There they conversed for one and a half hours, and developed a mutual respect for each other.

Rabbi Judah Lowe made use of his excellent connections with the Emperor, often intervening on behalf of his community when it was threatened by anti-Semitic attacks or oppression.

Daily Thought

G‑d is not just big—He is infinite.

If He were only big, then those things that are small would be further from Him, and those things that are big would be closer.

But to the Infinite, big and small, far and near are irrelevant terms.

Nothing is too small for His concern; no place is too far that He cannot be found there.

He is everywhere, and He is found wherever anyone will seek Him.
