The Hebrew word karov (קָרוֹב) encapsulates multiple dimensions of closeness, underscoring nearness in space, time, and relationships. It points to a sense of being close to something both physically and metaphorically, highlighting the ability to connect and transcend distance. As we get ready to celebrate Israel’s 74th birthday from near and far, we want to offer another opportunity for developing closeness with contemporary Israeli society.
