This week’s Torah reading
- Torah reading for Dec. 7, 2024Genesis 8:15–9:17 recounts God’s covenant with Noah, marked by the rainbow, symbolizing His promise never to flood the earth again. This covenant is linked to Messiah Yeshua (Christ Jesus): just as Noah’s ark was a refuge from judgment, Yeshua offers salvation from eternal destruction. The passage highlights themes of new beginnings, stewardship and the sanctity of life, paralleling the restoration and hope found in Yeshua’s ministry and the ultimate renewal of creation in the Messianic age.
