My latest podcast is up. In this week's Torah portion, Behar - Bechukotai God tells Moses to speak to the Israelites and say to them when you enter the land that I assign to you the land shall observe a sabbath. God says that the Israelites can work the land for six years but on the seventh year the land gets a Shabbat of complete rest. 💕 The Torah goes further: not only is every seventh year meant to be a shmita aka a sabbatical year but after seven time seven years the 50th year "Jubilee," and that year too is a year of rest. 💕 During the Jubilee, all debts are canceled; slaves are released; and any land transactions which have taken place are annulled so that the land can return to its original original caretakers 💕 God says you shall proclaim freedom throughout the land These are also the same words inscribed on our nation’s liberty bell and I think it’s important to remember Our country has made a lot of mistakes through the years but one thing is true we are constantly striving to live up to the ideals and values laid out by the founders of this country. ☮✡ Shabbat Shalom @adobespark @tailwindapp #Torah #podcast #minuteLessonsfromthetorah #futurerabbi #entrepreneur #Podcasts #podcasting #God #Leviticus #vayikra #beharbechukotai #bible #adobespark #tailwindapp #whatrabbisdo #linkisinthebio
