Rosh Hashanah - Head of the Year
A two-day holiday that marks the start of the High Holy Days, a period of introspection and repentance. It's a time for reflecting on the past year, asking for forgiveness, and setting intentions for the new year.
Its biblical origins are found in the Book of Leviticus (23:23-25) and Numbers (29:1-6). It's described as a day of rest, a holy convocation, and a memorial of blowing trumpets, with no work permitted. While the term "Rosh Hashanah" itself appears in Ezekiel 40:1,
Pesach - Passover
Passover, as described in the Bible (primarily in Exodus 12), is a significant holiday commemorating the Israelites' liberation from slavery in ancient Egypt. God instructed them to sacrifice a lamb, smear its blood with myrrh on their doorposts (signifying God's protection of the homes for death to passover), and eat a meal of roasted lamb, unleavened bread, and bitter herbs.
The verb "pasach," which means "to skip," "to pass over," or "to protect" is exactly what proved to be an eventful moment for those living through these amazing moments. So we to get to do this, simply because it's a choice.
Exodus 12:13: "The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt."
Exodus 12:26-27: "And when your children ask you, ‘What does this ceremony mean to you?’ then tell them, ‘It is the Passover sacrifice to the Lord, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt and spared our homes.’"
Leviticus 23:5: "The Lord’s Passover begins at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month."
Counting of the Omer - Shavuot -Weeks - Pentecost
The "Counting of the Omer" (Sefirat HaOmer) is a 49-day period of spiritual preparation connecting the holidays of Passover and Shavuot.
Beginning on the second night of Passover, we recite a blessing and verbally count each day, counting both the days and the passing weeks. Our base is Psalms 119! It's a compass with daily reflections and character adjustments. We experience, discuss and see if we can remain committed to the process!
Although Pentecost is a major Christian holiday that commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and other followers of Yeshua -Jesus. This is an event that empowers all of us to share the good news! Our purpose is to grow and learn together in unity. Experiencing a new view and fresh understanding of Hashem's teaching and instructions - we have been given an opportunity to access vast wealth. Not just money, on the contrary -More L'Chaim - Life!
Understanding historical and factual truths is vital. Pentecost is rooted and strengthened by both Jewish and Christian traditions, representing foundational moments in history.
We have learned in our community that the word of HaShem is a consuming fire! He alone can be identified as a “consuming fire” in Deuteronomy 4:24 and 9:3. as well.
It points to His Sovereignty, Holiness, Righteousness, Justice, and Refining work in the life of every believer, warning against missed steps and character flaws - sin while simultaneously offering, teaching, instruction, guidance, purification and a true invitation to warmth. Amen!
Yom Kippur - Day of Atonement
The Day of Atonement—is considered the most important holiday in our faith. We offer a range of specialized resources that will allow us to navigate those experiencing this Holy Day for the first time. It is tailored by God to meet our individual needs.
Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is a significant event in the Bible, primarily detailed in Leviticus 16. It's a day of fasting, self-reflection, and seeking forgiveness for sins.
Shema Prayer - Listen, Israel: the Lord is our God, the Lord is One. Blessed be the name of His glorious kingdom for ever and all time. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. These words which I command you today shall be on your heart.
Deuteronomy 6:4-9, Deuteronomy 11:13-21, and Numbers 15:37-41.
This text makes it all clear. John 6:35. In this passage, Yeshua-Jesus declares that He provides spiritual nourishment and eternal life to those who believe in Him, satisfying their spiritual hunger completely.
John 6:35 (NIV): "Then Jesus declared, 'I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.'"
John 6:48 (NIV): "I am the bread of life."
John 6:51 (NIV):"I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
Sukkot - Feast of Booths
Sukkot, also known as the Feast of Tabernacles, is a seven-day holiday that commemorates the Israelites' forty-year journey through the desert after the Exodus, during which they lived in temporary shelters (sukkot).
It's a time of rejoicing, remembering God's protection and provision, and celebrating the fall harvest. The holiday is described in Leviticus 23:34-43 and Deuteronomy 16:13-17.
Seder - Order
Yeshua - Jesus is our Pesach! Wine and (unleavened) bread were always a part of Passover Seder, however Yeshua took it even deeper. He shone light on that ceremonial part of Passover and revealed its true meaning. After taking the cup, he gave thanks (in Hebrew: “blessed”) and said, “Take this and divide it among you.
A Seder is not the same as Passover, but the Seder is a central part of the Passover holiday. Passover is a holiday commemorating the Exodus from Egypt, while the Seder is a meal and service that retells the story of the Exodus and celebrates true freedom.
The word "seder" (סֵדֶר) translates to "order" or "arrangement". It is most commonly used in the context of the Passover Seder,
