Manage episode 508886709 series 1544548

Warning: Some will again be offended. They will say His Feasts are ‘old’, and “done away with.” As if He preferred the pagan replacements, and couldn’t manage to say so. YHVH certainly made the reason for His anger, and our continued exile, abundantly clear. And in this case, the warning and importance could not be clearer. Even if we have been lied to about it!
Vayelekh: This is the Year to Make SURE you ‘Know the Season’
The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:
