Hi {{ subscriber.first_name | capitalize() or "friend" }},

This coming Shabbat's Torah portion, read on Saturday, December 18th, is "Vayechi". This portion reads about Jacob’s blessings to his sons and grandsons on his deathbed, and his final passing and burial.

Last week, our popular Root Source teacher Rabbi Gedalia Meyer talked about "Vayigash." See it below.

We are delighted to share "On What the World Stands" from our course Fathers with our teacher Rabbi Elan Adler. Learn from Rabbi Adler.

Parashat Vayechi

In this, the final portion of the book of Genesis, we read of Jacob’s blessings to his sons and grandsons on his deathbed, and his final passing and burial. The book concludes with Joseph’s final days, as well, and his death and enbalming in Egypt.

Part 2: Bob O'Dell interview with First Century Foundations

How could Christianity – which initially was completely Jewish – suddenly turn against the Jewish people and claim to have replaced them in God’s plan for the world? When did the first non-Jew convert to Christianity? Did he have a good relationship with the Jewish people?

Vayigash: Rabbi Gedalia Meyer's Weekly Torah Study

Our popular Root Source teacher Rabbi Gedalia Meyer has been giving short weekly teaching on the Weekly Portion for the Temple Institute.

We are grateful to our friends at the Temple Institute who gave permission to provide Rabbi Meyer’s teachings here too.

Lesson 1: On What the World Stands

Rabbi Adler takes on Shimon the Righteous (Hatzadik), one of the last surviving members of the great assembly and the profound three-part statement he made about the world. He then gives two different reasons why Shimon Hatzadik might have limited himself to only three.

This week some of the topics covered were:
Gidon and Richard talk about Miss Universe(!), Eilat, Hannah Senesh, Dubai and the UAE, Richard's first blind date:-), Holocaust survivors and many more!

Root Source "New Years' Eve 2022" and Birthday Party for Gidon and Bob

Who doesn't love a party?

This coming December 30th, we'll have a lot to celebrate!

On December 30th, we will congratulate Gidon Ariel and Bob O'Dell, founders of Root Source, for their vision of a space where Jews and Christians can be together and be friends, learning with each other and about each other. Both Gidon and Bob were born in "-ember" months, so we will take this opportunity to wish them both a "lechayim!"
