Shavuot is a memorial of the second harvest of Israel, first at Mount Sinai, where newly freed Israel received the Ten Commandments (Exodus 19–20), and second at the Temple in Jerusalem 10 days after Yeshua the Messiah returned to Heaven (Acts 2). Join us for praise, fellowship and Bible study.

This week’s Torah reading
- Readings: April 5, 2025Genesis 26:12–35 focuses on Isaac’s Heaven-granted prosperity and the resulting envy from the Philistines, leading to disputes over water wells. Parallel passage Isaiah 65:23–66:8 prophesies a future of divine blessings and the birth of a renewed Zion. Another parallel, Romans 9:6–18, discusses God’s sovereign election of Isaac over Esau, emphasizing that true descendants of Abraham are identified through faith, not merely by lineage. These passages collectively highlight themes of divine promise, conflict and God’s selective favor, which culminate in the New Testament revelation of Yeshua haMashiakh (Jesus the Christ) as the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan.
