Readings for Saturday, January 9, 2021
Shemot (“Names”)
1:1 - 6:1 Shemot (Exodus)
Shemot (Exodus) is the second book in the Torah. It consists of chapters in total. Shemot (both the book and the first sedrah) literally means “Names” as in “These are the names (Shemot) of the sons of Israel who came to Egypt with Jacob.” Different commentators have divided the book in various ways. For some, Shemot divides as follows:
- Israel Enslaved in Egypt - Exodus 1:1-22
- God Chooses Moses - Exodus 2:1-4:31
- God Sends Moses to Pharaoh - Exodus 5:1-7:13

Hayyei-Sarah (Sarah's Life)
Torah Reading....................... Genesis 23:1-25:18
Haftorah Reading................. 1 Kings 1:1-31
Brit Chadashah Reading....., Matthew 8:19-22; 27:3-10;
Proverbs Reading.................. Proverbs 31:10-31
SARAH TEACHES US the blessing of the fullness of life, the ripening of beauty. We learn that the time of greatest loss is also the time of most abundant harvest. Even as our heart breaks in mourning, we receive (through that very-same broken heart) the legacy of our loved one, and we seek a way to secure that legacy, to plant it within us like a seed.
The blessing that comes of loss is hidden for us to find along the journey of our mourning. We are sent to our depths, to the cave of our ancestors. With courage we can walk into that cave, through the opening of our own broken heart, to where Adam Kadmon — the primordial man and woman — lies waiting surrounded by the fragrance of Eden. When we breathe in that fragrance, we come back to ourselves in an ancient memory of who we truly are.
Parasha: Vayera: And He Appeared
TORAH PORTION: Genesis 18:1–22:24
HAFTARAH: 2 Kings 4:1–37; BRIT CHADASHAH: Hebrews 11:1–40
“The ETERNAL appeared [vayera] to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day.” (Genesis 18:1)
In last week’s Parasha, Lech Lecha, God sealed His Covenant with Abram (whose name was later changed to Abraham. That covenant promised the Land to his descendants as an eternal heritage.
This week’s Parasha contains more angelic activity than any of the other parashot.
Angels appear to Abraham as men, bringing messages to him and Sarah of future events to come. They also save Lot from a hostile mob, lead Hagar to water for her son, and comfort her with the promise of Ishmael becoming a great nation. Later in the parasha, the angels also prevent Abraham from sacrificing his son, Isaac. This week’s Parasha is entitled vayera (וירא), which means appeared. It is called that because Abraham receives three mysterious guests in the plains of Mamre in Hebron.
HAFTARAH: II KINGS 4: 1–37
The story of the Miracle Birth of a Child is retold when Elisha meets the Shulamite woman and spoke life into her womb. Because of her great faith, this woman had her son and even when it appeared he had died, her faith in the Prophet of Yahuah restored her Promised Child to LIFE. HalleluYAH!

TORAH PORTION FOR APRIL 05, 2014 (ABIB 5, 5774)
Metzora or M'tsora (מְּצֹרָע — Hebrew for "one being diseased,"
Torah Reading: Leviticus 14:1-15:33
HafTarah: 2 Kings 7:3-20
Besorah: Luke 9:51-10:42
In the first reading (עליה, aliyah), YHWH told Moses the ritual for cleansing one with a skin disease. If the priest saw that the person had healed, the priest would order two live clean birds, cedar wood, crimson stuff, and hyssop. The priest would order one of the birds slaughtered over fresh water and would then dip the live bird, the cedar wood, the crimson stuff, and the hyssop in the blood of the slaughtered bird. The priest would then sprinkle the blood seven times on the one who was to be cleansed and then set the live bird free. The one to be cleansed would then wash his clothes, shave off his hair, bathe in water, and then be clean. On the eighth day after that, the one being cleansed was to present two male lambs, one ewe lamb, choice flour, and oil for the priest to offer.
Cleansing with hyssop... is something many may want to consider even today as there are spiritual attacks upon our families that only a biblical cleansing formula can eradicate.
