Parasha Emor
Parasha Emor
“So you are to keep My mitzvot and do them. I am Adonai.
You must not profane My holy Name, for I will be made holy among Bnei-Yisrael. I am Adonai who makes you holy,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. I am Adonai.”
Parasha Emor
Adonai Elohim made Adam and his wife tunics of skin and He clothed them.
Then Adonai Elohim said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil. So now, in case he stretches out his hand and takes also from the Tree of Life and eats and lives forever,”
Adonai Elohim sent him away from the Garden of Eden, to work the ground from which he had been taken.
And He expelled the man; and at the east of the Garden of Eden He had cheruvim dwell along, with the whirling sword of flame, to guard the way to the Tree of Life.
Parasha Emor
Adonai Elohim had formed from the ground every animal of the field and every flying creature of the sky, so He brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called them—each living creature—that was its name.
Parasha Emor
“Hear, My people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against you: I am God, your God.
I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices, for your burnt offerings are continually before Me.
I have no need of a bull from your house nor goats from your pens.
For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.
I know every bird of the mountains. Everything moving in the field is Mine.
If I were hungry, I would not tell you— for the world is Mine and all it contains!
Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?
Parasha Emor
For You would not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it, nor be pleased by burnt offerings.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.
Parasha Emor
“He who is the kohen gadol among his brothers, upon whose head the anointing oil is poured and is consecrated to put on the garments, is not to let the hair of his head hang loose or tear his clothes,
nor shall he go near any dead person, defiling himself, even for his father or his mother.
He is not to go out of the Sanctuary or profane the Sanctuary of his God—for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him. I am Adonai.
Parasha Emor
Now with these things prepared this way, the kohanim do continually enter into the outer tent while completing the services;
but into the inner, once a year, the kohen gadol alone—and not without blood which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people.
By this the Ruach ha-Kodesh makes clear that the way into the Holies has not yet been revealed while the first tent is still standing.
It is a symbol for the present time. Accordingly, gifts and sacrifices are being offered that cannot make the worshiper perfect with respect to conscience.
These relate only to food and drink and various washings—regulations for the body imposed until a time of setting things straight.
Parasha Emor
You are not greater than our father Abraham who died, are You? The prophets also died! Who do You make Yourself out to be?”
Yeshua answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing. It is My Father who gives Me glory—the One of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’
Yet you do not know Him, but I know Him. If I say I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you. Yet I do know Him and keep His Word.
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day; he saw it and was thrilled.”
Then the Judeans said to Him, “You’re not even fifty years old and you’ve seen Abraham?”
Yeshua answered, “Amen, amen I tell you, before Abraham was, I am!”
Parasha Emor
By His will we have been made holy through the offering of the body of Messiah Yeshua once for all.
Parasha Emor
Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have boldness to enter into the Holies by the blood of Yeshua.
He inaugurated a new and living way for us through the curtain—that is, His flesh.
We also have a Kohen Gadol over God’s household.
So let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and body washed with pure water.
Let us hold fast the unwavering confession of hope, for He who promised is faithful.
Parasha Emor
The prophets, who spoke about the grace that was to be yours, searched for this salvation and investigated carefully.
They were trying to find out the time and circumstances the Ruach of Messiah within them was indicating, when predicting the sufferings in store for Messiah and the glories to follow.
It was revealed to them that they were providing these messages not to themselves but to you. These messages have now been announced to you through those who proclaimed the Good News to you by the Ruach ha-Kodesh, sent from heaven. Even angels long to catch a glimpse of these things.
So brace your minds for action. Keep your balance. And set your hope completely on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah.
Like obedient children, do not be shaped by the cravings you had formerly in your ignorance.
Instead, just like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in everything you do.
For it is written, “Kedoshim you shall be, for I am kadosh.”
