Congregation Beth Yeshua Texas ties you to the roots of your faith - our common faith in the Almighty God and Creator of all things binds us together- Jew and Gentile. As it is written... "In the beginning God..." )בְּרֵאשִׁית בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים(. Every time we celebrate Shabbat, or come together for the Feast Days, we are proclaiming to the world "This God, this Creator, is our GOD."
The Moedim (moe-eh-DEEM), are incorrectly called, "Jewish holidays". According to Leviticus 23, God refers to them as "The designated (appointed) times of ADONAI...", and He commanded His People as well as foreigners who wished to join themselves with the people of Israel, to observe these holy convocations throughout all their generations. We refer to them as feast days. These include: The weekly Shabbat (7th Day Sabbath); Pesach (Passover, which include Matzah-Unleavened Bread, and Yom Habikkurim-First Fruits); Shavuot (Pentecost); Yom Teruah (Trumpets); Yom Kippur (Atonement); Sukkot (Tabernacles), and The 8th Day of Assembly (Shemini Atzeret).
Every year, God placed appointments on His calendar when He told His children to meet with Him. Why do you think that was? While many things come to mind, and centuries of teaching & preaching expound - perhaps it is as simple as 5 words? Those 5 words are: Revere, Rehearse, Remember, Relate, Reveal. Notice how they are all verbs? It's certainly something to Ruminate on!
God's calendar is cyclical. So, we are presenting it as a circle - showing the Hebrew names for the yearly cycle of seasons and feasts.
