BECHUKOTAI · PAGE 435 11 12 INTRODUCTORY NOTES WE, THE BLACK JEWS of the world, along with the progressive Rastafari and collectively, the “Ethiopian-Hebrews,” i.e. the Beta-Israel (or, Falashas3) of the West, for more than a two to three millennia prior to the other “Jews”, the other ‘Ísrael4’; also have a written testimony to our Divine Heritage, possessing our own ancient religious, metaphysical and spiritual literature that endeavours to explain, clarify and explicate the revealed word of scripture, the Holy Bible. Amongst the other “Israel,” or European coverts called ‘Jews,’ these writings have been expanded upon and preserved in voluminous commentaries to the Torah, the Hebrew Bible, and thus further divided into various categories according to content. Overall, these traditional oral interpretations, scriptural ordinances, were compiled by certain Rabbis about A.D. 200; according to Orthodox Judaism, Judaic Studies and Yeshiva Schooling , i.e. TALMUD,MISHNA,GEMARA,HAGGADAH, HALACHA, and THE KABBALAH, inclusive of so-called THE ZOHAR and other like and similar ‘Extra-biblical’ and interlinear writings by distinguished (European) Jewish Rabbis. THE FOLLOWING COMPILATIONS of each Book of the Hebrew Bible’s Weekly Torah Portions are intended as a basic and preliminary introduction to modern “JUDAISM”, as it presently, that is to say, the current form based predominantly upon the prevailing European-Jewish, i.e. Germanic-Polish tradition, commentaries, interpretations and related studies, that 3 Falashas, from the Ge’ez/Ethiopic root ȫëēfellese – meaning “to separate, go away, depart, emigrate, to secede, split off (from)”; Ȱðēœ ņŅñŸ filsete babilon, the Babylonian exile; ȫîĕ felasi – “an exile, alien, pilgrim.” The implication here, is that, namely the “lost sheep” in the Americas and the Caribbean are also “Falashas of the West,” or Exilist in the Trans-Ethiopic, falsely called “TransAtlantic,” Ocean Slave Trade of the 16th and 17th centuries. 4 Particularly, the Israelis, i.e. those who also call themselves ‘Jews,’ the ‘wild olive graffed in,’ (Romans 11:17, 24) namely the so-called Gypsies, Khazars or better known, ‘European Jews’ (Ashkenaz), et al, who history documents converted to a form of Judaism after 70 A.D. and the global dispersion and later captivity of the ethnically African, or ‘Black’ Hebrews; see Rudolph R. Winsor’s, From Babylon to Timbucktu. 13 collectively are derived from what is called the Babylonian Talmud. Also inclusive in these Wikipedia free encyclopedia references are certain Sephardic, or Spanish-Jewish alternative points-of-view to the Torah studies that are highly instructive, especially in our exploration of the wide diversity of possible interpretation that have, and greatly continues to define modern Judaism. We, the BLACK JEWS, are very conscious and aware of the fact that certain Black Hebrews and Ethiopian Jews may rightly object to the preponderance of whitewashed art and images in this volume, the majority created by the “wild olive tree” (Romans 11:17, 24), European-Jews, Anglo-Europeans and Romanist/Catholic pseudonymous Christians, all that were grafted, over nearly 16 centuries, since the fall of Jerusalem in 70 A.D., into our natural vine tree, i.e. the True and Ancient Judaism that was Black, Egyptian/Kamite or Ethiopic in its primary origination, racial ethnicity, linguistic composition and biblical revelation. This we hope to, and intend to, by the Almighty’s help, sufficiently prove in our related volumes containing our Ethiopian-Hebrew commentaries (Amos 9:7) and exegesis, mainly based upon the various writings and research, by authors such as Mr. Gerald Massey, and others, both past and present, Black and White, who wrote (or, whose works and documents were subsequently translated) in English. We, for our part, have also studied, translated and interpreted from many of the original documents and manuscripts in order to compose our own extensive research and reconstruction of the Ethiopic Torah (Orit) from several of the ancient Black Race’s biblical languages (i.e., Kamo-Semitic) of the antiquity: namely, Ancient Egyptian (Hieroglyphs), Ethiopic (Western Semitic), Ge’ez, Tigre, biblical Hebrew, Aramaic, Assyrian (Eastern Semitic), Sabaean, Oromo (or, Galla) dialects and even archaic Amharic. HOWEVER, we must be greater in spirit and broader in outlook and approach this sensitive subject matter by dealing with the facts on the ground and what is believed, or thought to be the case by the other Jews, and then present our case and the other side of this suppressed, neglected and avoided controversial story, our Black “Jewish” or African-based, and Ethiopian- 14 Hebrew story. The views presented in this volume are not our own and do not necessarily reflect the Ethiopian-Hebraic interpretation to the Old Testament, or Ethiopic Orit (Torah) in particular, but is being compiled into these five volumes: Bereishit, Shemot, Vayikra, Bamidbar, and Devarim (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy) and printed separately, largely due to side per volume. Nevertheless, this study, and these volumes have been compiled by THE LION OF JUDAH SOCIETY, and are designed for the Brotherhood of the Rastafari disciples and Ethiopian-Hebrew faithful to get better acquainted with the primary and prevailing opinions on Judaism and the interpretations of the Hebrew Bible. THETORAH PORTIONS IN THE THIRD BOOK, CALLED - VAY'KRA (Heb. Leviticus) are composed 10 portions, including the first portion, or self-named parsha of Vayikra · Tzav · Shemini · Tazria · Metzora · Acharei · Kedoshim · Emor · Behar · Bechukotai. As ethnic, or “Black” Hebrews, and Afro-Israelities, we have several well-attested to, thoroughly researched and duly documented ancient Ethiopian books and manuscripts (MSS), that thankfully help serve as resource and reference materials, comprising what the present author and compiler has suitably named, the Ethiopic Talmud, many of these written in the Ge’ez language. These manuscripts assist us in forming our own Ethiopian-Hebrew and Black Jewish commentaries and exegeses, from a non-Eurocentric perspective. A few of the main Ethiopic Talmudic commentary source materials and titles are namely, but not strictly limited to, the following volumes: The Queen of Sheba and Her only son Menyelek (Kebra Nagast), The Book of Jubilees, or Little Genesis (Kufale), the Book of Enoch (Ethiopic Henok), Gadla Adam (Conflict of Adam), Ancient Egyptian Wisdom & Kamite Mysteries (Gerald Massey’s A Book of the Beginnings, Natural Genesis, Ancient Egypt: Light of the World, and Lectures), Lefafa Sedeq: Bandlet of Righteousness, to only name a few of the many texts, that we, by the Grace of the Almighty, soon expect to compose our Ethiopian-Hebrew commentaries and 15 exegesis based upon both the “Wisdom of the Egyptians (or, Egypts)” (Acts 7:22) coupled with our Judeo-Christian Ethiopian “Divine Heritage”. Yet, this is still to come, and we hope and pray to the Most High for guidance, perseverance and life eternal. Amen. ONE FINAL NOTE is in order here, namely: There are several smaller volumes, some books, many fragments and a host of rare manuscripts written in Ethiopic, some of them original compositions, and others allegedly based on, what foreign scholars consider to be, translations from Coptic (or, Sabaean?), Hebrew, Syretic (i.e.

Perhaps you’ve even used it yourself in response to some unkind phrase or words. Most of us, at some point in our lives, have both said something bad about another per- son and have had another person say something bad about us. We tend to think that what we said really didn’t hurt the other person, but we also tend to long remember the hurt that another person’s words have caused us.

  • The Most Long-Lasting Schism in the History of the Jewish People”: in Leviticus 23:11 השבת a Fresh Look At
    Andrews University Seminary Studies, Vol. 56, No. 1, 47–62. Copyright © 2018 Andrews University Seminary Studies. A PROPOSED SOLUTION TO “THE MOST LONG-LASTING SCHISM IN THE HISTORY OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE”: IN LEVITICUS 23:11 השבת A FRESH LOOK AT Bradford Maris Berrien Springs, Michigan Abstract The term “S/sabbath” in Lev 23:11 provides the temporal orientation in verses 9–22 for both the sheaf elevation ritual of verses 10–14, on the following day, and the new grain offering ritual (Festival of Weeks), seven weeks thereafter. However, identity of the S/sabbath itself is contextually indeterminable in chapter 23, and has been disputed throughout the centuries. The various theories, all based upon cessation of human labor, contend for either a weekly Sabbath linked to the festival, or one of the two festival days that prohibit all occupational work, or a “Sabbath week.” Yet, none can demon- strably establish its claim as the specified S/sabbath over against the other theories. The only antecedent with requisite specificity for the term S/sabbath in verse 11 is derived from Exod 12:15, where the mandates the “cessation of leaven,” specifically שבת hiphil of the verb on the first day of the festival (Abib 15).

Specifically, she spoke against her brother Moses. Yerushalmi Berachos 1:2 Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai said, “Had I been at Mount Sinai at the moment when the torah was given to Yisrael I would have demanded that man should have been created with two mouths- one for Torah and prayer and other for mundane matters. But then I retracted and exclaimed that if we fail and speak lashon hara with only one mouth, how much more so would we fail with two mouths Bavli Arakhin15b R. Yochanan said in the name of R.Yosi ben Zimra: He who speaks slander, is as though he denied the existence of the Lord: With out tongue will we prevail our lips are our own; who is lord over us?

  • 1 Kings 11:14-40 “Solomon's Adversaries”
    1 Kings 11:14-40 “Solomon’s Adversaries” 1 Kings 11:9–10 9 So the LORD became angry with Solomon, because his heart had turned from the LORD God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice, 10 and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he did not keep what the LORD had commanded. Where were the Prophets David had? • To warn Solomon of his descent into paganism. • To warn Solomon of how he was breaking the heart of the Lord. o Do you have friends that care enough about you to tell you when you are backsliding against the Lord? o No one in the Electronic church to challenge you, to pray for you, to care for you. All of these pagan women he married (for political reasons?) were of no benefit. • Nations surrounding Israel still hated Solomon • Atheism, Agnostics, Gnostics, Paganism, and Legalisms are never satisfied until you are dead – and then it turns to kill your children and grandchildren. Exodus 20:4–6 4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

  • The Two Screens: on Mary Douglas S Proposal
    The Two Screens: On Mary Douglass Proposal for a Literary Structure to the Book of Leviticus* Gary A. Rendsburg In memoriam – Mary Douglas (1921–2007) In the middle volume of her recent trio of monographs devoted to the priestly source in the Torah, Mary Douglas proposes that the book of Leviticus bears a literary structure that reflects the layout and config- uration of the Tabernacle.1 This short note is intended to supply further support to this proposal, though first I present a brief summary of the work, its major suppositions, and its principal finding. The springboard for Douglass assertion is the famous discovery of Ramban2 (brought to the attention of modern scholars by Nahum Sar- na3) that the tripartite division of the Tabernacle reflects the similar tripartite division of Mount Sinai. As laid out in Exodus 19 and 24, (a) the people as a whole occupied the lower slopes; (b) Aaron, his two sons, and the elders were permitted halfway up the mountain; and (c) only Moses was allowed on the summit. In like fashion, according to the priestly instructions in Exodus 25–40 and the book of Leviticus, (a) the people as a whole were allowed to enter the outer court of the Taberna- * It was my distinct pleasure to deliver an oral version of this article at the Mary Douglas Seminar Series organized by the University of London in May 2005, in the presence of Professor Douglas and other distinguished colleagues. I also take the op- portunity to thank my colleague Azzan Yadin for his helpful comments on an earlier version of this article.

  • D'var Torah, July 3, 2020 Susan Cantor This Week We Have a Double
    1 D’var Torah, July 3, 2020 Susan Cantor This week we have a double Torah portion – Chukat and Balak (Numbers, 19:1 – 25:9). These portions include many events including the following: 1. The purification of a person who has had contact with the dead. 2. The deaths of Miriam and Aaron. 3. The refusal of the King of Edom to let the children of Israel pass through his lands. The Edomites were descendants of Esau, who was the twin brother of Jacob. So, there might have been some residual sibling rivalry going on. 4. This portion also references the victories in battle against the Amorites and the people of Bashan after the Israelites were punished for complaining about the lack of bread and water. 5. And then there is the story of the non-Israelite Prophet Balaam and his talking donkey. The donkey was questioning his mistreatment by Baalam who was hired by Balak, the King of Moab, to curse the Israelites. Instead, Balaam blesses the Israelites and prophesies about the defeat of the Israelites’ enemies. 6. Lastly, the Balak parsha talks about the plague put upon the Israelites for consorting with Moabite women and their gods. Pinchas, the grandson of Aaron, kills an Israelite man and his Midianite woman, thus, ending the plague. That’s a quick summary of Chukat and Balak. This evening I wish to focus on Parshat Chukat and mainly on the role of Miriam. 2 The Israelites were close to the end of their journey in a place called Zin. At this point in time, the Israelites found themselves in a tough spot.

    ESTHER 3-4 TALK INTRO I think it's fair to say EVERYONE loves a great rivalry, don't they? When 2 arch rivals going head to head. If you're into superheroes you've got Superman and Lex Luther, Batman and the Joker, Optimus Prime and Megatron. For the more more high brow you've got Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty, Capulets and Montegues, Moby Dick and Captain Ahab I was trying to think of a couple romantic arch rivals from Jane Austin or Bronte. But I got to admit Classic literiture's not my thing. Can anyone think of a great arch epically from Jane Austin or Charles Dickens? Everyone loves a great arch rivalry don't they? And today as we turn to the book of Esther, that's exactly what we find. Two great arch rivals going head to head. Today we're going to watch Mordecai go head to head with Haman. But it's not like to equals going head to head. No, this is more like a David and Goliath type rivalry. Like an underdog against Goliath type rivalry. But like a true underdog. No matter how intimidating Haman is, no matter how great the pressure to submit to Haman. Like a true underdog, Mordecai, will refuse to bow before his arch rival. So with that in mind, let's prayer and then dive and watch our two arch enemies go head to head. Let's pray. IN THE BLUE CORNER – A JEW WISE In the blue corner sits Mordecai, a faithful official working for King Xerxes.
