Acharei Mot A Personal Day of Atonement
Thought for the Week: Passover this year comes immediately after Shabbat. This Shabbat’s Torah reading is about the rituals of the Day of Atonement. The juxtaposition of Passover and the Day Atonement should remind us of Yeshua, our Passover lamb who died on Passover in order to work atonement for us in the heavenly Temple
Kedoshim Holiness and Honesty
Thought for the Week: What does a holy person look like? Do you picture a priest or a nun? Maybe a preacher? Perhaps you imagine a Chassidic Jew with a full beard, side locks and black hat. Leviticus 19-20 contains the Bible’s description of what holiness looks like. The passage begins with the words, “Speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy'” (Leviticus 19:2).
