#ShabbatShalom - Welcome to Parasha Behar (On the Mount), this week's study of the Torah portion. We invite you to read along with us and enrich your understanding of the Bible by discovering Torah truths in this portion that will be read in synagogues around the world this Shabbat (Saturday). We know you will be blessed as you study this Torah portion with us.  Enjoy! 

Last week, in Parasha Emor, God called the Kohen (priests) to live lives that expressed a greater measure of holiness.  It also described the essential festivals that God calls His feasts, which included the Sabbath. This week, in Parasha Behar God gives Moses the law of the Shemitah (literally, release but commonly translated Sabbatical Year). This law is related to the pattern or rhythm of seven in Scripture.

Todah Rabah - beloved Rabbi Chaim Richman ... 


Weekly Torah Portion: Behar 
"The land shall rest a Sabbath to HaShem." (Lev. 25:2) Thusly G-d introduces the children of Israel to their significant other - the land of Israel. Not simply a place for them to rest their feet, or for G-d to rest His Shechinah (Divine Presence), the Land of Israel, itself, is a living, breathing entity, whose own inherent holiness is an integral part of Israel's physical and spiritual security and well-being, dwelling upon its soil, forever and ever.

Behar (Leviticus 25:1 - 26:2) Parashat Behar was read in Israel on Shabbat: Iyar 13, 5779 / May 18, 2019

Hillel Richman: The True Location of the Temple Mount: Fully Illustrated 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dh5yQiPYuo0 (53:52) The Temple Institute 1/8/19 
Archaeologist Hillel Richman, Senior Researcher and Past Supervisor, Ancient Jerusalem Sifting Project and Temple Mount Sifting Project, refutes the spurious theories claiming that the Temple Mount was in any other place other than Mount Moriah, with an emphasis on the 'City of David' theory, while providing incontrovertible historical and archaeological proof that the Holy Temple was, and will be, located on what is today referred to as the Temple Mount. Hillel's talk is accompanied by more than 100 photos, illustrations and charts. This teaching was recorded on 11/11, 2018, in Lubbock, Texas.

Special ... Rabbanit Rena Richman: On Suffering 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUY6nz-D-NE (55:43) The Temple Institute 12/16/18 
Unfortunately, or fortunately, as Rena will explain, suffering and crisis and tragedy is universal. Adversary punctuates every day of our lives. We cry out "where is G-d?" "Are we beloved?" A study of the lives of our patriarchs and matriarchs, sheds light on the purpose of suffering and the path it can open before us, leading us closer to G-d. This teaching was recorded on 11/11, 2018, in Lubbock, Texas.

The Coming Temple - Full Documentary 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKTO8YYs29c (48:17) NuBeat Music 12/21/16 
Filmed in the Old City of Jerusalem, this ground-breaking documentary investigates the research of renowned Biblical archaeologists, Bob Cornuke, David Sielaff and Earnest L. Martin who claim that Solomon and Herod's Temples never stood on the Haram al Sharif, also known as the Temple Mount. If they are right, then there is nothing to stop the Jewish people building their long awaited for Third Jewish Temple in the actual site where the Temples once stood.

Report: US Considering Plan to Send 5,000 Troops to Middle East 
by Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz 

One of the officials said the requested troops would be defensive in nature. The Pentagon refused to comment on the story. Tensions between the U.S. and Iran have been rising as a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier strike group is in the region. The military also stationed four B-52 bombers and a Patriot Missile battery nearby. Last week, four oil tankers were severely damaged by explosives while off the coast of the United Arab Emirates. The U.S. accused Iran-backed Houthi rebels of carrying out the attack.

Iranian President Rejects Negotiations With Trump
by JNS 

“Today’s situation is not suitable for talks, and our choice is resistance only,” said Rouhani on Tuesday, according to the state news agency IRNA. U.S. President Donald Trump has shown tough rhetoric, but also a willingness to sit down for talks with the regime. “Iran will call us if and when they are ever ready,” he said on Monday, a day after tweeting, “If Iran wants to fight, that will be the official end of Iran. Never threaten the United States again!”

THERE IS NO DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION 


Brigitte Gabriel defends Jews in one of the best speeches the UN has ever heard
by Leah Rosenberg

Brigitte Gabriel fights for what is right in the world. She is not a bystander who watches history go by as different religions are targeted. The United Nations has been a place of Jew hatred and Israel hatred. Resolution after resolution has been passed attacking the Jewish state. Reports have criticized Israel – but they are false. So many other world problems are ignored because the UN is obsessed with condemning Israel for nothing. Christians are being slaughtered throughout the Muslim world. Terrorists are murdering Jews. And the UN talks about Israel’s “war crimes.”

Kushner's squeeze play on Jordan's King Abdullah
Trump’s son-in-law will likely use Jordan’s economic and water crises 
to force the king to accept the ‘ultimate deal’. 
by Bill Law, AL JAZEERA 
In March of this year, King Abdullah of Jordan met the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in Washington. By all accounts, the closed-door meeting with the Jordanian monarch, a staunch ally of the United States, was somewhat of a bumpy ride. King Abdullah is said to have expressed his deep frustration about being kept almost completely in the dark about the “ultimate deal” that is supposed to secure peace between Israel and the Palestinians.

Shabbat Menu - Cherries Jubilee Brownies
In this week’s parsha Behar we learn about the laws of the Sabbatical year whereby on the seventh year, the land is granted a year of rest.  The Children of Israel are promised that with faith and fidelity, the sixth year will produce enough produce to sustain them through the seventh.  After seven cycles, there is a great celebration to commemorate the Jubilee Year.  It includes a release of debts, freedom for slaves and servants and a time to rest from the toil of harvest and planting.  Although traditionally served tableside with flames rising from a frying pan, this easy Cherries Jubilee Brownie recipe can be prepared in a Shabbat-friendly way as a rich and delicious parsha-inspired ending to your Shabbat meal.

The Lord said to Moses at Mount Sinai, 'Speak to the Israelites and say to them:
When you enter the land I am going to give you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the Lord. Leviticus 25:1–2



Shabbat Shalom - Parasha Behar (On the Mount) - The Year of Faith !!!

Jerusalem
 
Shabbat Shalom 
 
Welcome to Parasha Behar (On the Mount),
this week's study of the Torah portion.
 
We invite you to read along with us and enrich your understanding of the Bible by discovering Torah truths in this portion that will be read in synagogues around the world this Shabbat (Saturday).
 
PARASHA BEHAR (On the Mount)
Leviticus 25:1–26:2; Jeremiah 32:6–27; Romans 6:1–23
 
"The Lord said to Moses at Mount Sinai, 'Speak to the Israelites and say to them: "When you enter the land I am going to give you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the Lord."'"  (Leviticus 25:1–2)
 
An Israeli girl strolls through a field of wheat.  God instructed that the
fields not be cultivated during a Sabbatical Year, and whatever grows
naturally is free for the taking.
 
Last week, in Parasha Emor, God called the Kohen (priests) to live lives that expressed a greater measure of holiness.  It also described the essential festivals that God calls His feasts, which included the Sabbath.
 
This week, in Parasha Behar God gives Moses the law of the Shemitah (literally, release but commonly translated Sabbatical Year).
 
This law is related to the pattern or rhythm of seven in Scripture.  Here are a few instances:
  • God created the universe in seven days;
  • There are seven days in the week;
  • God rested on the seventh day;
  • The Temple menorah was seven-branched;
  • The Israelites made seven circuits around Jericho before the walls fell; and
  • There are seven moadim or appointed times:  Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Pentecost, Day of Blowing Trumpets/New Year, Day of Atonement, and Tabernacles.

The Seven Trumpets of Jericho, by James Tissot

Seven is the number that celebrates the sacred purpose of infusing holiness into the whole of Creation.  (Jewish Wisdom in the Numbers)
 
And while most people are aware of the seven-day cycle of the Shabbat, and the holiness it infuses to the week, few realize that God instituted a yearly cycle of seven for the Holy Land.
 
Just as we are to work for six days but rest on the seventh, the land is to be sown and harvested for six years.  In the seventh year, the land is to have its Shabbat year of rest — its Shemitah.
 
"But in the seventh year the land is to have a year of Sabbath rest, a Sabbath to the Lord.  Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards.  Do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the grapes of your untended vines.  The land is to have a year of rest." (Leviticus 25:4–5)
 
A resident of Holon, Israel, has posted a sign stating the fruits on the trees
in his backyard are hefker (abandoned property) during the Shemitah year.
 
In Israel, even the children keep this commandment
in their gan (kindergarten)
 
In the year of Shemitah, it is not unusual to see a sign posted next to their weedy, unkempt garden that reads, "In honor of the year of Shemitah, our Gan is not tending our gardens."
 
This is a beautiful sight, reminding us of the uniqueness of living in the Holy Land.
 
Of course, this law involved more than allowing the land to rest.  During the Shemitah, the Israelites were to make some agricultural and economic adjustments in order to rest and take the time to learn about the Lord.
 
It was not only a time of physical rest, saving both the land and the people from exhaustion, it was a time of spiritual refreshment:
 
"At the end of every seven years, in the year for canceling debts, during the Festival of Tabernacles (Sukkot), when all Israel comes to appear before the Lord your God at the place He will choose, you shall read this law before them in their hearing.
 
"Assemble the people — men, women and children, and the foreigners residing in your towns — so they can listen and learn to fear the Lord your God and follow carefully all the words of this law.  Their children, who do not know this law, must hear it and learn to fear the Lord your God as long as you live in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess."  (Deuteronomy 31:10–13)
 
There was also an element of benevolence or social justice in this holiday since debts were to be forgiven, and the poor could pick the produce that grew without the land being worked.

The Year of Jubilee: the Redemption of the Land
"Count off seven Sabbath years — seven times seven years — so that the seven Sabbath years amount to a period of forty-nine years.  Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants."   (Leviticus 25:8, 10)
 
The seven-year Shemitah cycle accumulated in sets of seven (49 years) and culminated in the Yovel (The Year of Jubilee).
 
Every 50th year, both the land and the people rested.
 
This is a very special appointed time of freedom and liberty that is sanctified, set apart, or holy (kadosh) to the Lord.
 
It was proclaimed throughout the land with the blowing of the shofar on the Day of Atonement.
 
With the blast of the shofar, Hebrew slaves were freed and debts were forgiven.
 
And while the land was left uncultivated, as in the Shemitah year, in the Yovel year, hereditary property was returned to its original family, even if it had been sold because of misfortune, poverty, or to pay off a debt. 
 
In fact, at any given time, the proximity of the Jubilee determined the value of a person's land.  If it were just a few years away, the land would sell for less since it would soon be returned to its rightful owner.
 
In other words, though land could be sold, it could only be sold for a limited period of time.
 

The shofar is blown for a variety of reasons, including the convening
of an assembly, the coronation of a new king, and the announcing
of the new moon and the Year of Jubilee.  Its piercing call is regarded
as a prompt to return to the Lord and to seek His face.

Although this type of land ownership may seem foreign and impractical, the intent of this law is to convey the truth that the Lord is the real owner of Israel's real estate; therefore, it cannot be permanently sold.
 
"The land must not be sold permanently, because the land is Mine and you reside in My land as foreigners and strangers.  Throughout the land that you hold as a possession, you must provide for the redemption of the land."  (Leviticus 25:23–24)
 
We might liken this concept of land ownership to a lease, with the Jewish People being God's tenants.
 
This law was for everyone, rich and poor alike.  It was designed to protect the rights of each person and prevented land and wealth from being accumulated in the hands of a rich few, while the majority remained poor.
 
What's more, this law really brings home the fact that no one — no leader or politician or individual — has the right to sell, divide or give away God's land for any reason.
 
Not even for the purpose of a supposed peace deal with those determined to destroy the Jews in Israel.  God will execute His judgment on all those who attempt to divide up His land.  (Joel 3:2)

(Wailing) Wall.
 
The Hope of Jeremiah: the Hope of Israel
"Houses, fields and vineyards will again be bought in this land."  (Jeremiah 32:15)
 
Haftarah Behar (the corresponding Prophetic portion) echoes the theme found in the Torah portion of the purchase and redemption of land.
 
This portion opens with a rather bizarre situation.
 
King Zedekiah has imprisoned Jeremiah in Jerusalem because he had prophesied the destruction of Jerusalem and the exile of the Jewish People.
 
Jerusalem is under siege by the Babylonians who will soon overtake the Land.  Nevertheless, the Lord tells Jeremiah that his uncle will ask him to purchase his field, and God instructs Jeremiah to accept the offer.
 
"Buy my field in Anatot, since you have the right of redemption to purchase it."  (Jeremiah 32:7)
 

Modern-day Anatot, also called Almon, is named after the hometown of
Jeremiah.  Ezra 2:23 reveals the true toll on Anatot when it states that only
128 men returned home after the exile.

This seems like an absurd thing to ask of Jeremiah!  What?  Buy a field that will soon be Babylonian property?  Ridiculous, especially for a man rotting in jail.
 
But this is no ordinary purchase.  It is a prophetic act.
 
Despite Jeremiah's accurate predictions of Jerusalem's destruction, he retains the ability to see hope in the face of desolation.
 
Even though he knows that the city is about to be destroyed and the rest of the land conquered, in obedience to the Lord, Jeremiah redeems the land.
 
In doing so, he affirms his faith in the Eternal who promised the redemption of Israel — that houses and fields would once again be bought in the land.  (Jeremiah 32:15)
 
Although it is unlikely that Jeremiah will ever live on that land during his lifetime, this prophetic act displays his refusal to give in to hopelessness.
 
He trusts in God's mercy.  One day, God will bring His people back home to the Land and to Himself. 
 
"Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm.  Nothing is too hard for you."  (Jeremiah 32:17)

The exiled people of Israel did rebuild Jerusalem and again inhabited Israel, as God promised.  However, after AD 70 they were scattered by the Romans, though a remnant has always remained in the Land.
 
Yet, God promised that a second time, He would return His people to His land — not from Babylon but from the four corners of the earth to never be dispersed again:
 
"I will bring My people Israel back from exile. They will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them.  They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit.  I will plant Israel in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them."  (Amos 9:14–15)
 
Our generation is witnessing the fulfillment of the hope of many prophets — the miraculous restoration of the nation of Israel and the regathering of its people from the four corners of the earth.

We have yet to see the fulfillment of the promise that the Jewish People will turn back to God and be reunited in the Land under the sovereign rule of the Messiah, sitting on the eternal throne of His father, David.
 
Just like in the Year of Jubilee, when debts were forgiven and the Hebrew slaves set free, the day is soon coming when all of Israel will recognize that Yeshua (Jesus) is the Messiah who forgives us and releases (shemitah) us from slavery to sin.
 
"We know that our old self was put to death on the execution-stake with Him, so that the entire body of our sinful propensities might be destroyed, and we might no longer be enslaved to sin … so now offer your various parts as slaves to righteousness, which leads to being made holy, set apart for God."  (Romans 6:6, 19)
 
 
Please help Bibles For Israel bring Yeshua (Jesus) to the Jewish People here in Israel and around the world.
 
"I will cleanse them from all the sin they have committed against Me and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against Me."  (Jeremiah 33:8)
