C-MATS Question: What were the final words of Moses? These final words of Moses are a combination of blessing and prophecy, in which he blesses each tribe according to its national responsibilities and individual greatness. Moses' blessings were a continuation of Jacob's, as if to say that the tribes were blessed at the beginning of their national existence and again as they were about to begin life in Israel. Moses directed his blessings to each of the tribes individually, since the welfare of each tribe depended upon that of the others, and the collective welfare of the nation depended upon the success of them all (Pesikta). came from Sinai and from Seir He dawned on them; He shined forth from יהוה ,And he (Moses) said 2 Mount Paran and He came with ten thousands of holy ones: from His right hand went a fiery commandment for them. came to Israel from Seir and יהוה ?present the Torah to the Israelites יהוה Question: How did had offered the Torah to the descendants of יהוה Paran, which, as the Midrash records, recalls that Esau, who dwelled in Seir, and to the Ishmaelites, who dwelled in Paran, both of whom refused to accept the Torah because it prohibited their predilections to kill and steal.

  • Vayechi Torah Together ויחי “He Lived” Genesis 47:28 – 50:26
    © 2016 Torah Together Study Series www.torahtogether.com Parashah 12 Vayechi Torah Together ויחי “He lived” Genesis 47:28 – 50:26 This is the last Torah portion in the Book of Genesis, completing the life stories of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. It is helpful to remember that Moses wrote Genesis and yet he was born many years after the events recorded in the book. All the stories of Genesis had been handed down among the Israelites by word of mouth from generation to generation until Moses was finally tasked with writing them down at the end of his life. These stories are complete, complex, and detailed and yet present a consistent picture of the character of our God. The uniqueness of the Book of Genesis stands as a testimony to the existence of our God. 1. Jacob Blesses Joseph’s Sons - 47:28 - 48:22 a) How many years did Jacob live in Egypt? When did the famine end? Why do you suppose he stayed in Egypt so long? Jacob arrived in Egypt at age 130 and died at 147 => 17 years in Egypt. The famine had about five years to go when he arrived, so Jacob’s Burial Place he lived in Egypt for 12 years beyond the famine. God evidently Before his death, Jacob did not tell Jacob to go back to Israel and Jacob would have requested that Joseph wanted to stay near his son Joseph. swear on oath that he would transport his bones b) What oath did Joseph take at Jacob’s request?

  • 9Th Month of Israel, Kislev (Benjamin) Page 2
    9th Month of Israel, Kislev (Benjamin) page 2 9th Month of God’s Calendar Kislev (Nov/Dec) Kislev Is The Fall Month Associated With Benjamin Kislev Is The Month To Be Aware Of Dreams. God Created Time One of the keys to walking in God’s blessings, is to walk with an understanding of God’s calendar. Because God created time. Time is God’s way of keeping everything from happening at once. God designed a calendar to help us stay in step with Him as we move through time. God’s calendar was established at creation. When God created the heavens on purpose of the sun, moon, and stars, was to serve as signs to mark season and days and years and appointed times. God revealed His calendar in his word. His calendar is not like ours. God has a different way of looking at time. Days begin in the even and not the morning. They include a cycle of yearly appointed times when God desires to meet with us. It has a different understanding of months. Each month is really a prophetic season. The goal is therefore to live ‘in sync’ with God’s timing. And when we do that, we prosper. Kislev Is In The 3rd Season, Fall FALL SEASON The three months of the fall season – Tishrei Sept/Oct, Cheshvan Oct/Nov, Kislev Nov/Dec – correspond to the three tribes of the camp of Ephraim – Ephraim, Manasseh, and Benjamin– who were situated to the west of the Tabernacle in the wilderness. • In the Seventh Month, Tishrei The month of the Fall Feasts”—Returning to God and experiencing His Glory.

  • The Role of the Prophet in Determining the Future Location of the Temple.1
    The Role of the Prophet in Determining the Future Location of the Temple.1 A. Preface—Presenting the Halachic Question. There is a common assumption, in fact, a strong traditional view, that there is a fixed location for Beit HaMikdash (the Temple) on Mount Moriah, even though, today, this precise location is not known to certainty, 2 despite a preponderance of historical indications that the First and Second Temples were situated at the current place of the Dome of the Rock. According to this convention, which implicitly emerged as a result of several rabbinical rulings, 3 the future Temple could be built only after determining the previous location of the two former Temples. Our goal in this paper is to consider whether the Temple must be built on the assumed location of the first two Temples, which would require an absolute determination of the original location as a prerequisite for the Temple's re- establishment, or whether, alternatively, the Temple could be built anywhere on Mount Moriah. This question will be examined through the hypothetical situation of a prophet who issues a prophecy to rebuild the Temple, while specifying a location on Mount Moriah that is different from what is widely considered its original location. This method of examination is appropriate given the special halachic authority of the prophet in the of the Temple's establishment, as opposed to the prophet’s authority on other halachic issues, to the degree, according to some views, 4 that only a prophet can provide the final authorization to establish the Temple. In particular, the halachic situation to be examined is as follows.

  • Parshat Vayechi - Nosh and Drosh – January 2, 2021
    Parshat Vayechi - Nosh and Drosh – January 2, 2021 1) Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years (47:28) These seventeen years were the best years of his life—years of prosperity, goodness and peace; his other 130 years were filled with toil and pain. (Midrash; Baal HaTurim) When Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Lubavitch (1789–1866) was a child attending cheder, his teacher taught the verse “Jacob lived for seventeen years in the land of Egypt” according to the commentary of the Baal HaTurim—that Jacob lived the best years of his life in Egypt. When the child came home, he asked his grandfather Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi: How can it be that our father Jacob, the greatest of the Patriarchs, lived the best years of his life in pagan Egypt? Replied Rabbi Schneur Zalman: It is written that Jacob “sent Judah ahead of him . to show the way to Goshen” (Genesis 46:28). The Midrash explains that this was to establish a house of learning, where the sons of Jacob would study Torah. When one studies Torah, one is brought close to G-d, so that even in Egypt one can live a true “life.” (HaYom Yom) Nevertheless, in the very next verses we read how Jacob entreats Joseph: “Carry me out of Egypt!” So great is his urgency that he is not content with an agreement or a promise on Joseph’s part, but insists that his son take a solemn oath to fulfill his request. A Jew might find himself living a most ideal life in galut (exile)—a life of material comfort and spiritual fulfillment; a life of Torah, mitzvot and charitable works.

  • 12Th Tribe of Israel, Benjamin Page 2
    Tribe of Benjamin Dimensions and Aspects of Power Genesis 35:18 A Ravenous Consumer Ben meaning son. Yamyim means right hand, right side, leg or eye of a person. Also means the south side, which is the more pleasant side. Means happy one, son of the happy one. Jacob changed the name of this son who was first named by Rachel, to Benjamin, meaning this is the son that came from the one who was as dear to me as my right hand. Benjamin was given two names. First, his mother named him Benoni. "And she called his name Benoni." Every one of the sons of Jacob was named by his mother. Benoni is taken from two root-words, ben and oni. Ben means "a son," and oni means "to exert oneself in vain, to come to naught, affliction, evil, false idols, iniquity, mischief, mourning, naught, sorrow, unjust and unrighteous, vanity and wickedness." The two parts together are "son of my oni," or perhaps, "son of my sorrow, son of my iniquity, son of my unrighteousness, son of my vanity, son of my false idols." When you understand this, you are seeing into the heart of dying Rachel. As I said earlier, the last words of' a dying person are very, very important. These were the very last words that Rachel spoke before she expired. When someone dies, their whole life comes up before them, and they remember every important detail. Certainly this was true in Rachel's case. In that moment, as she realized she was dying, she was remembering her own 'sins that had brought this terrible judgment and wrath of God upon her.

  • THE TROUBLE with BENJAMIN Philip R. Davies Among The
    THE TROUBLE WITH BENJAMIN Philip R. Davies Among the many issues that have absorbed Graeme Auld’s wide- ranging interest, the books of Joshua to Kings occupy a central place. When Graeme and I first met, in Jerusalem, he was wrestling with a doctoral thesis on the book of Joshua, and especially the ‘Tetra- teuch–Pentateuch–Hexateuch’ debate. The fruits of that engagement were published as Joshua, Moses and the Land 1 and Graeme has returned to Joshua many times.2 His participation in the recent intensive debates about ‘Deuteronomism’ and the ‘Deuteronomistic History’ has also been extensive and, as always, perceptive and original, includ- ing his radical hypothesis concerning the relationship between Samuel–Kings and Chronicles,3 which, like so much of his work, illustrates how attention to detailed textual features can challenge the most strongly-established consensus. I am pleased to be able to offer Graeme a discussion on matters dear to his heart. The tribe and territory of Benjamin is an intriguing phenomenon, and remarkably underplayed in biblical scholarship. To date, still the only major treatment is Schunck’s Benjamin,4 summarised in his Anchor Bible Dictionary entry on ‘Benjamin’.5 The southernmost of the terri- tories that constituted the kingdom of Israel,6 at some point Benjamin 1 A.
