Casting Off Sins

What do you do with your sins? 
Since the beginning, man has been in search of something to do with sin. From the account in Act One with Adam and Eve (Genesis 3) in the garden, to the story of Ananias and Saphira (Acts 5) in Act Two, our first response is to hide from others, but especially an All-Knowing God.
During these "Days Of Awe," the 10 days between the Feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement, the Jewish community symbolically casts their sins into the depths of the sea. 
You don't have to be Jewish to appreciate the redemptive story that is taking place in this season. In fact, we believe this will enhance and grow your faith in a God who has already cast our sins into the depths of the sea. 
Who is a God like You, who pardons wrongdoingAnd passes over a rebellious act of the remnant of His possession?He does not retain His anger forever,Because He delights in mercy.
He will again take pity on us;He will trample on our wrongdoings.Yes, You will cast all their sinsInto the depths of the sea.
- Micah 7:18-19

Feast Of Trumpets - Act Two

Do you want to know more about the Feast Of Trumpets?
The Feast of Trumpets is a fascinating holiday that has been celebrated by Jews for thousands of years. It’s not just an interesting historical event, but there are layers that also point forward to Jesus and His return. This podcast episode will walk you through passages in Act Two and will prepare us for what is to come.
So sit back, relax, grab your favorite drink (we recommend Manischewitz), and let us guide you through Act Two of the Bible as we prepare for what is to come!
1 Thessalonians 4
16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive, who remain, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore, comfort one another with these words.
Other key passages: John 14, Luke 21, 1 Corinthians 15

Feast Of Trumpets - Act One

Do you want to know what the Jewish New Year is all about?
The Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, begins on Sunday night. It’s a time of reflection and introspection as we look back at the past year and prepare for the new one ahead. But did you know that Biblically this holiday is not actually the new year and has nothing to do with apples or honey? We call it the Feast of Trumpets, or Yom Teruah in Hebrew. Find out why in today’s episode of The Jewish Road Podcast.
Look at Leviticus 23.
23 Again the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 24 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘In the seventh month on the first of the month you shall have a rest, a reminder by blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation. 25 You shall not do any laborious work, but you shall present an offering by fire to the Lord.’”
What happens in a synagogue today during the Feast of Trumpets?
Apples + Honey
The Akedah (Genesis 22)
"L'shanah tova tikateyvu." (May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year!)
Passages to Study: Leviticus 23; Exodus 19; Nehemiah 8

The Summer Harvest

The High Holy Days are here! You can find them in the back half of Leviticus 23. In this episode, we’ll explore one parenthetical verse in Leviticus 23. This one verse spans the time between the Spring feast of Pentecost and the Fall feast of Trumpets. It's summer. In 2021, this span of time runs three-and-a-half months.
Hidden in this one verse is a call for the church to go into the fields and bring in the harvest! Find out more on this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast!

All The Feasts

God loves a good party, but sometimes it can be hard to remember what the feasts of Israel are and why they have any relevance to us today.
In this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast, we give you an overview of the feasts found in Leviticus 23. You'll also get some interesting insights into how these celebrations help us see both Act One (the Old Testament) and Act Two (the New Testament) of God's story better.
