Community at a Glance: Dolev

This is the series you have been waiting for – the chance to visit communities in Judea and Samaria, from the comfort of your home, and catch a glimpse of life in each and every community.

Dolev is located in an area full of natural streams and pools. Some of the pools go back decades and even centuries. Some have been recently dug and sealed by local community residents to enhance a lovely picnic area or provide a place to cool down during the long summer days. 

In recent years, the pools near Dolev have become favorites for my family. We love to drive out there with our children and grandchildren, picnic and relax, sometimes taking a dip in the pools. There is nothing better on a hot summer day!

But the community of Dolev is also truly refreshing. Young and old, they all have a great pioneering spirit! And everyone so welcoming. Join me in our next Community at a Glance video which enables you to visit Dolev. Let’s hope that one day soon we will visit this beautiful area together, in person!

Shalom from Samaria,
