Netanyahu to Kerry: Feared abductions a result of letting Hamas into Palestinian government

(Devarim 28:32

בָּנֶיךָ וּבְנֹתֶיךָ נְתֻנִים לְעַם אַחֵר, וְעֵינֶיךָ רֹאוֹת, וְכָלוֹת אֲלֵיהֶם, כָּל-הַיּוֹם; וְאֵין לְאֵל, יָדֶךָ.

Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day; and there shall be nought in the power of thy hand.

and Targum Yonatan explains "and there shall be nought in the power of thy hand" as: You don't have good deeds under your belt that would provide the spiritual power to pray to Hashem with the proper intent to help. If I can add my 2 cents in, perhaps this is a call for good deeds from everyone so that our prayers will be effective.)

Missing teens: Time is not on their side

3 yeshiva students missing, feared kidnapped outside Jerusalem

Jewish News received word via Congregation Beth Tefillah newsletter emailed today by Rabbi Pinchas Allouche, a student of Rabbi Steinsaltz.
...
In a press release issued today, The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations expressed deep concern for the three 16- year-olds.
“We pray for their safe return and urge everyone to include them in their prayers this Sabbath.” They expressed concern and solidarity in a letter to Prime Minister Netanyahu and said that American Jewry stands together with the government and people of Israel, and particularly, the families of the three youths.
...
Rabbi Steinsaltz and the Chief Rabbinate of Israel have suggested reading Psalms 20 and 21 [YY- I'm guessing this is a typo and really should be 121] and giving tzedakah every day until the boys are found, Rabbi Allouche wrote. In addition, those lighting candles this evening are asked to add a prayer for the boys' return.

Signing off for Shabbat.  May we only hear good news.
