TODAY! |
If you come to my home for Shabbat, on certain Parsha you will find certain things at our Shabbat table!
For example, in Parsha Shelach, we will always try to have Big Grapes! Because of the big cluster of grapes that the 12 brought back from the Land of Israel when they went to spy the land, we are reminded of the bounty that the LORD provides and the fruitfulness in the Land of Israel. On Parsha Toldot (oops! I had written Vayigash in the original draft!), be ready for red stew! You-know-why that is! (If you don`t, please see HERE.....)!
Those are just a few examples, and if you come for Parsha Korach, which was last (This) week for us,
You will find a special Challah, Aaron`s blossoming rod challah!
I am beginning to feel more and more the presence of angels in our home when we welcome the Shabbat, and that Heaven is pleased to look down and see the table set in an expression of the word we are reading!! There are actually in the Bible those whose job was to set out the bread of the presence weekly in the holy place. As I return to the blog this week after a long absence, I wonder if that this is one of my callings. I hadn`t written for a while on the blog, but was encouraged by a dear blogger friend, so I decided to come back and explore it further, and return here to my challah blog and to share the blessings of Shabbat and invite you to the Table together as we partake of the bread and the vine!!
You did not choose Me, but I chose you. I selected you so that you would go and produce fruit, and your fruit would remain. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in My name.
John 15:16
Shabbat Shalom to all! Happy to `see` you again!
Love,❤️
