Mr. Jack finally arrived in the village of Radin, Poland. After a five-hour train ride from Warsaw, and a two-hour horse and buggy excursion, Jack concluded the last leg of his trip by foot. Upon arriving in the village, he immediately inquired as to the whereabouts of its most famous resident, Rabbi Yisrael Meir Kagen, author of "Chafetz Chaim" (on the laws against gossip) and "Mishneh Brura" (on laws of daily observance).
With trepidation, Jack knocked on the door and it was opened by an old, bent-over man who asked him to please enter. Mr. Jack explained that he was visiting from America and strongly desired to meet the world famous authority. Looking around, Jack noticed that the house was bare of furniture as if it had been hit by a hurricane. There was just one table, two chairs, a bookcase and a bed. ...........

Yom Kippur - Goat for Azazel
Tuesday, September 21 @ 18:33:16 CDT by kokko (93 reads) | | Rabbi Ari Kahn

Yom Kippur - Goat for Azazel -
The objective of Yom Kippur is to bring about forgiveness for the entire people:
"For on that day I will forgive you, to purify you from all your sins, in front of God you will become pure." (Leviticus 16:30)
Aside from the entire nation, special attention is given to the Sanctuary and the Kohanim, the priests:
"He [the Kohen] shall atone for the Holy Sanctuary and for the Tent of the Meeting, and for the altar, he will atone; for the Kohanim and for the entire people of the congregations, he shall atone." (Leviticus 16:33)
Clearly, part of the service deals with improper behavior on the part of the Kohanim.............

God Judges us on Rosh Hashana Because He Believes we ......
Monday, September 06 @ 07:18:19 CDT by myoung (123 reads) | | God never gives up on us. He judges us on Rosh Hashana because He believes in our ability to transcend our blockages.

Once there was a king. The king had a servant to whom he entrusted a precious vessel. The vessel was somehow damaged. The servant's awe of the king was so great that he did not know what to do, where to turn. He found a wise man and sought his counsel. The wise man told him that he should not bring the shattered vessel before the king; it was not befitting. The servant decided it would be better to seek advice from one of the king's closest friends. The servant thought a person such as that would be more likely to have a deep knowledge of how the king would respond and would also know what course of action the king would take................

Understanding the High Holy Days
Sunday, August 29 @ 09:34:58 CDT by myoung (91 reads) | | by Rabbi Emanuel Feldman
The overarching theme of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur is "change:" to change from what we were before and to become new individuals.
Tishrei, the month of Rosh Hashana, is the first month of the universe, and just as when God completed His Creation He contemplated and evaluated it, so does He do every Rosh Hashana -- which means that Rosh Hashana is actually the Day of Judgment for the universe and for mankind collectively and individually.
That explains why, more than any other Jewish holiday, Rosh Hashana's liturgy is not limited to Jewish themes exclusively, but contains so many universal themes as well. On no other occasion, for example, is God referred to as "King over all the earth," and at no other time is God's Holy Temple called a "house of prayer for all the nations." This is all a reflection of the universal judgment of this day...........

Hearing the Shofar's Call
Sunday, August 22 @ 16:00:32 CDT by myoung (90 reads) | Permission from Aish.com
by Yaakov Astor, Rosh Hashana Holy Day
The shofar arouses the divine voice within our own innermost selves, calling us back to our Source.
The shofar -- it has an aura of awe and holiness about it. Its blast can shatter hearts of stone and wash away layers of complacency. Its call is capable of bringing us back to places inside ourselves impenetrable by any other means.
The Baal Shem Tov is teaching that the shofar is an emotional, intuitive way of gaining access to the deepest recesses of our heart, of divine experiential knowledge. Its blast, this wordless sound, speaks to the heart in a way all the greatest words and insights cannot approach.
King David, on the other hand, seems to contradict this. In reference to the shofar he says, "Happy is the people who know the truah [i.e. the shofar blast]" (Psalms 89:16). King David does not say, "Happy is the people who hear the truah." The emphasis seems to be on intellectualization. Accordingly, we would need to use our intellects with great effort if we truly wanted to benefit from the shofar......

What is TISHA B'AV (The Fast of Tammuz)
Thursday, July 29 @ 16:19:53 CDT by myoung (83 reads) | | (First comments by Mike Young. The names of the months of the Jewish calendar were adopted during the time of Ezra, after the return from the Babylonian exile. The names are actually Babylonian month names, brought back to Israel by the returning exiles. Note that most of the Bible refers to months by number, not by name. Another note of interest after the Tower of Babel occured the Babylonian tribe called Nimrod who was still alive Tammuz. The month in the Babylonian calendar of Tammuz is named after Nimrod, the Mighty Hunter.)
TISHA B'AV
Tuesday, July 27, 2025 is Tisha B'Av on the Jewish calendar, a day of mourning over great tragedies that befell the Jewish people on the 9th of Av throughout history. On this day, the Jews fast to commemorate five disasters that occurred in the history of the Jewish people, and with this fast end the Three Weeks of mourning between the 17th of Tammuz and the 9th of Av......

Feast of Sukkoth ''Birthday of the Messiah''
Sunday, May 23 @ 20:42:44 CDT by myoung (217 reads) | | Sukkoth "The Birthday of the Messiah?"
by Jerry Golden
Feast of Sukkoth (also known as Feast of Tabernacles or "Booths")
Leviticus 23: 33-44 tells us the story of the Israelites and their journey out of Egypt and the following 40 years of wondering. We can find the name Sukkoth in Gen. 33:17 "And Jacob journeyed to Succoth; and built for himself a house, and made booths for the livestock, therefore the place is named Sukkoth." The Hebrew word Sukkoth means "hut" -----------

Vatican Admits that Sunday is NOT the Biblical Sabbath
Tuesday, April 13 @ 13:33:30 CDT by myoung (302 reads) | | In a recent Catholic church newsletter it stated, "Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. 'The Day of the Lord' [dies domini] was chosen, not from any direction noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church's sense of its own power..... People who think that the Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically become [Seventh-Day] Adventists, and keep Saturday holy." Saint Catherine Catholic Church Sentinel, Algonac, Michigan, May 21, 1995.
No Scriptural Support
"Sunday is a Catholic institution and its claim to observance can be defended only on Catholic principles..... From beginning to end of Scripture there is not a single passage that warrants the transfer of weekly public worship from the last day of the week to the first." Catholic Press, Sydney, Australia, August 1900.

330 AD Abduction of Righteous to Heaven Taught
Tuesday, January 06 @ 01:07:15 CST by myoung (184 reads) | | Early Bishop Ephraem The Syrian Taught Rapture Theory.
by Chuck Missler
In recent years, many opponents of the pre-tribulation rapture view have made dogmatic assertions that this view was never taught before 1820 A.D.1 There have been attempts to attribute the origin of this view to John N. Darby.
Grant Jeffrey has found an ancient citation from a sermon ascribed to Ephraem of Nisibis (306-373 a.d.), which clearly teaches that believers will be raptured and taken to Heaven before The Tribulation.2
