shavuot

The Feast of Weeks is designated as the third and final pilgrimage festival for Israelites and is described in Leviticus 23. Called Shavuot or Pentecost, it is known as a harvest festival, but becomes the day the church was founded in Acts 2. This episode of Bible Backdrop goes into some of the history and traditions surrounding this festival.

The rapture is a single word that describes a large body of scripture, although this term does not appear in the Bible, its scriptural references are undeniable to the salvation requirements of God in faith. One of many aspects of the rapture, mentions the trumpet or Judaism, Shofar. Yom Teruah. 

Wenn wir einkaufen gehen, erwarten wir Früchte, die Fülle, Gemüse, Brot und vieles mehr in den Auslagen der Geschäfte. Die wenigsten von uns machen sich Gedanken darüber, woher das alles kommt und wer es wachsen lässt. Für Kinder gar kommen die Sachen einfach aus dem Supermarkt. Doch wer ist der Schöpfer und Erhalter der Welt? Und wer sorgt dafür, dass es keine Lieferschwierigkeiten gibt? Das ist ein topaktuelles Thema heute.

Welcome to the THIRD season of Dawn of an Era of Well-Being. This season we are dedicating our focus to the world’s religions, and discovering how religion and spirituality can help bring us together in a more harmonious condition.

In today’s episode we will be talking about Judaism with the much esteemed Rabbi Aaron Raskin. 

Judaism is one of the world’s most ancient monotheistic religions, and it is the parent tradition to the Abrahamic faiths, which include Christianity and Islam. The primary text of the Judaic faith is the Torah, which is specifically the original five books of Moses, describing the origin of the Jewish people and the laws that instruct them in ethical conduct and outline terms of their covenant with G-d. The Torah is the initial portion of a larger set of books known as the Tanakh, which is roughly analogous to the Old Testament of Christianity.

Judaism is a distinctive tradition in that it also interweaves the concepts of an ethnic group—the Hebrews or Israelites—and a political or national entity, that being the nation of Israel— which could be perceived as the Jewish people at large—historically living in diaspora—as well as the nation state of Israel centered around the sacred site of Jerusalem (or Zion). Thus Jewish identity can run along a variety of religious and secular vectors.

The topic of the Jewish spirituality is complex, multi-faceted, and has been subject to millennia of scholarly commentary. So we are very fortunate to have Rabbi Raskin joining us to share some of his knowledge on this. 

Rabbi Aaron L. Raskin is a dynamic and charismatic leader who hails from a long line of prominent rabbis. His grandfather, Rabbi Jacob J. Hecht, served as official translator to the Lubavitcher Rebbe.

Rabbi Raskin came to Brooklyn Heights in September of 1988 where he co-founded the Congregation B’nai Avraham and he continues to serve as its spiritual leader. Serving a community at the crossroads of so many other diverging communities in the heart of New York City has made Raskin particularly attuned to the exigencies—and opportunities— of answering questions posed across racial, religious, and political divides. He has been consulted as reference by sources religious and secular alike (The New York Daily News; the Oprah Winfrey Network; National Geographic Magazine) and retains a unique position as a respected Jewish leader sensitive to 21st-century secular issues.

He is also author of By Divine Design: The Kabbalah of Large, Small, and Missing Letters in the Parshah (2010); Letters of Light:  A Mystical Journey through The Hebrew Alphabet (2003); and The Rabbi & The CEO: The 10 Commandments for 21st Century Leaders (2008, co-authored with Thomas Zweifel, PhD.).

What is so special about the Hebrew language? It's just one of the languages spoken in Israel right? Hebrew is so much more than a language! It embodies the entire Jewish community; it was the language the Bible was written in, and now it spreads even beyond the borders of Israel. Today, the Teacher and the Preacher talk about the importance of the Hebrew language and how much it has changed within the last 20 years. 

The Teacher and the Preacher is a weekly radio program--hosted by Dave McGarrah, Senior Pastor at Deer Flat Church in Caldwell, Idaho, and Aaron Lipkin from Israel--that airs each Sunday at 10:30 am and 7:30 pm here on 94.1 The Voice KBXL and also on Sunday evenings at 5 pm on our sister station 790 KSPD. They are a unique phenomenon on the airwaves – a Christian and a Jew in an ongoing dialogue – celebrating the many commonalities but never shying away from the differences. They offer their listeners insights into each other’s faiths that don’t come up much elsewhere, that can only come through sincere conversation. The weekly discussion is more than a program about a topic; it’s a demonstration of how God can bring two people together from 9,000 miles away to bridge the differences, learn from each other, and strengthen their own faiths.

I am Just Joe no title, preaching in Jerusalem Israel during a Jewish Holiday called Shavuot.

(Note: These TORAH 101 insights help connect you to your Jewish roots and was originally recorded during Holy Week, 2022.)

This episode deals with one of the most significant appointed times on the Hebrew calendar for both Jews and Christians.  It is called Shavuot, also known as the Feast of Weeks.  It is a joyous celebration on the 6th of Sivan (Hebrew calendar) – which fell on Sunday, June 5, 2022 when this episode was originally recorded.   Two incredible things happened on Shavuot, 1500 years apart!

Here's what you'll learn:

• What two events occurred on Shavuot and how they are related.
• The key lessons God teaches us through this festival.
• How this festival is a rehearsal for what happens to us in the Kingdom.
• A visual way to understand all 7 Hebrew festivals…how they relate to one another…and why they should matter to us.

In this episode, we learn positive mitzvah #28, which is rest from work on the holiday of Shavuot.

• This mitzvah applies to the 6th day of Sivan (the third month of the year). Outside of Israel, it also applies to the 7th day of Sivan.
• Other than the date, this mitzvah is identical to positive mitzvah #25, which is to rest from work on the first day of Passover. 
• Similar to the first day of Pesach,  food related melachot (work activities) are permitted on Shavuot, which is referred to as ochel nefesh. 
• Shavuot is the 50th day from the beginning of the Sefirat Ha'Omer (positive mitzvah #26). It is called "Shavuot," or "weeks," because the holiday is at the culmination of seven complete weeks of the Sefirat Ha'Omer.
