Parasha Vayechi (And He Lived): The Lion and the Scepter of Judah

Jacob Blessing Ephraim and Manasseh, by Benjamin West

In this Parasha, Jacob compelled Joseph to vow to carry his body back to the Land of his Fathers and bury him there. Joseph agreed to his dying father’s request not to leave his body in Egypt. Although Jacob had lived the last 17 years of his life in Egypt, he never forgot the Land God had promised him by Divine Covenant. Ever since God called Abraham out of Ur, the Jewish People have not lost sight of the Promised Land given to them through Isaac and Jacob. Even when the people of Israel were taken captive by Nebuchadnezzar, they sat by the rivers of Babylon weeping and remembering Zion, vowing to never forget her.

The Temple Mount Becomes a Burdensome Stone

Terrorism_Israel_Netanyahu-security meeting

Since the first blood moon at Passover this year, the situation in Israel seems to be becoming intensified by the minute, with angry Arab mobs attacking cars with stones and firebombs and other acts of terrorism occurring almost daily. On Monday, two young Israelis died in two separate stabbing incidents. Three others were wounded. In the first incident, an 18-year-old Palestinian repeatedly stabbed an Israeli Defense Forces soldier in a Tel Aviv train station. The assailant was trying to get the soldier's automatic weapon. A passerby who intervened was also injured. The soldier later succumbed to his wounds.

Elul and the Days of Awe: The Season of Judgment, Mercy, Repentance, and the Return of Yeshua‏

The Hebrew month of Elul begins the season of blowing the shofar (ram's horn) and seeking God in sincere repentance.

Today is the first day of Elul, the last month of the Jewish civil calendar that ends on Erev Rosh Hashanah, the evening of the Jewish New Year (September 24, 2014). Elul leads up to the Yamim Noraim (Days of Awe), a time of intensely focusing on repentance and forgiveness. The Days of Awe begin with Erev Rosh Hashanah on September 24 and end with the close of Yom Kippur on the night of October 4 (1–10 Tishrei).

The Jerusalem Temple, the Divine Call, and Baseless Hatred and Love

Model Second Temple.

In the 25th year of the Babylonian exile, Ezekiel (Yechezkal) prophesied that the Holy Temple would be rebuilt. And while chapters 40–48 of Ezekiel describe that Temple in great detail, when the Second Temple was built, it did not follow the specifications set forth by Ezekiel. Jewish commentators argue that Ezekiel’s Temple was not built because it was intended to be an everlasting edifice connected with everlasting redemption.

Lag BaOmer-bonfire

After the appointed festivals of Pesach (Passover) and Bikkurim (First Fruits), which occurred on the second day of Passover, we entered into a period called Sefirat HaOmer, or Counting the Omer (Sheaf). The Torah commands the Jewish People to count seven weeks (49 days) from the time of this wave offering until the evening of the festival of Shavuot. Shavuot occurs on the fiftieth day.
