QUESTION:   Why is there a custom to serve dairy on Shavuos? ANSWER: The Rama (OC 494:3) offers the following rationale why we customarily serve dairy foods on Shavuos: The korban (sacrifice) of Sh’tei Ha-Lechem, the “Two Breads,” was brought on Shavuos. We serve both dairy and meat foods on Shavuos, as this necessitates eating from two different loaves of bread. Why is that so? Bread which is served at a dairy meal may not be served with meat (because some dairy residue may have gotten on the loaf of bread). By serving dairy and then meat, there must be two separate loaves of bread at the table (which symbolizes the mizbei’ach), and this commemorates the korban of Sh’tei Ha-Lechem.

During a fiery session in the Knesset on Wednesday, Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu participated in a charged debate called by opposition lawmakers. The session was titled: “The government’s complete failure in achieving the war’s goals: returning all the hostages and dismantling Hamas, and the severe harm to the equal burden (military conscription).”

Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office on Wednesday, President Donald Trump said he urged Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu to avoid actions that might undermine the ongoing discussions with Iran.
When asked whether he issued a warning to Netanyahu, Trump replied candidly, “I’ll be honest – yes, I did,” before clarifying, “It’s not a warning, I said I don’t think it’s appropriate right now. We’re having very good discussions with them. I said I don’t think it’s appropriate right now because if we could settle it with a very strong document, with inspections, and no trust. I don’t trust anybody.”

Witkoff continued, expressing optimism: “I have some very good feelings about getting to a long-term resolution — a temporary ceasefire and a peaceful long-term resolution of that conflict.”
