Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by. Isaiah
26:20

Dear ,
In this Shabbat’s weekly Torah portion Vayikra Leviticus 1:1-5:26, opens where the book of Exodus left off; after God’s glory descends to the Tabernacle, Moses cannot enter, therefore God has to call to him to come forward. The portion, like most of the book of Leviticus, continues with a detailed accounting of several sacrificial services. It begins by looking at the voluntary offerings brought by the people under various circumstances, then
continues by discussing the mandatory offerings required under different conditions.

I am endeavoring to publish a volume called Pirkei Avot for Christians.Pirkei Avot is a six chapter collection focusing on three areas: personal ethics, social conduct, and the importance of Torah study. It includes some of the best known sayings of Judaism, besides those recorded in the Bible. It quotes sages from as early as the third century BC, so it stands to reason that Jesus and his contemporaries were as well versed in it as they were
in the Bible itself.
Jeremy Gimpel speaks at the Nations’ 9th of Av conference. In part 2 he shares about the future of prayer at the Holy Temple and then leads the group in song.
No talking, no music. Just 10 minutes of waves, water and wind by the shore of the Sea of Galilee at Tagba, the traditional site where Jesus cooked breakfast for Peter and the Disciples at sunrise.
B’nai Yisrael Getting Ready for Shabbat. The “unknown” is a place that most of us are afraid to enter. We all want to continue to be who we are forever. Perhaps we are also open to finding ways to fix ourselves, but we want to do that at our own pace, as we call the shots on how and when to fix.
We sign off with a lovely comment from a Root Source student and a beautiful photo of the Sea of Galilee.
Shalom,

As the Israel Bible points out, the Hebrew word for sacrifice is “korban”, which is derived from the word karov, meaning “close”. The purpose of the sacrifice, then, is to bring the bearer closer to God. Like the Tabernacle in which it is brought, the goal of the sacrifice is to foster the relationship between God and the Children of Israel. Thus, the one who brings the sacrifice gains much more than he gives. Today, since the Temple no
longer stands in Jerusalem, we are unable to practice the sacrificial rites as outlined in the Torah. Instead, the prayer service is meant to bring worshipers closer to God.
Happy Studying!

Bottom line: a questionnaire for Christians
I am endeavoring to publish a volume called Pirkei Avot for Christians.

I want this book to be an understandable rendering of the primary text that allows it to stand alone, with a minimum of explanations where absolutely necessary.

B’nai Yisrael Getting Ready for Shabbat
This week’s music: Midnight Escape
The “unknown” is a place that most of us are afraid to enter. We all want to continue to be who we are forever. Perhaps we are also open to finding ways to fix ourselves, but we want to do that at our own pace, as we call the shots on how and when to fix.
None of us can say for sure where this current situation will lead us. How long will we have to stay on lockdown in our homes? How much more will we have to suffer from this disease? When and how will we build a new government and hopefully get our lives back in order? No one knows, but one things seems clear to me. Hashem is speaking to us loud and clear. The
time has come for me to take a serious look at my life, rearrange my priorities and do the fixing I need to do, right now.
