"A very short overview for 2014"

 
 
On the date that I post this (Jan. 5, 2014), the passing of Ariel Sharon appears imminent and may well be significant to the appearing of Jesus (the rapture) if the prophecy given by Rabbi Kaduri is credible.  I think it is.  We also have blood moons on Passover and Sukkot in 2014.  In light of this I am providing a short overview of Jewish holidays for 2014.  (source/quotes: http://www.chabad.org/holidays/default_cdo/year/2014/jewish/2014-Holidays.htm )
