Parashot and Haftarot
The Annual reading Cycle of the Scriptures
Parashiyot (singular Parashah) – 52 weekly sections of the Torah (first 5 Books of the Bible) read on an annual recurring basis according to an ancient Jewish program. Each Parashah is named after the first Hebrew word of that section, e.g starting the annual program after the festival of Succot from Genesis 1:1: “In the beginning” – Bereisheet – thus named Parashat ‘Bereisheet’.
Haftarot (singular haftarah) – from the root פטר p-t-r ‘to conclude’) is the name given to certain biblical selections (from the Bible Books of Prophecies mainly) which are read after the Parashah of the day at Shabbat and festival services. It stems from an ancient set program compiled by the Jewish Sages to accompany the 52 week Cycle of Parashot. the never ending and constantly repeating Reading and Study Cycle invigorates Bible students with a special chain-like Message of Redemption – leading up to the Final Redemption, the Restoration of Israel and the establishment of the Universal Kingdom of the God of Israel, the Creator.
Amazing Prophetic fulfillment
As we have seen with 9th Av Prophecy, there has been a historic continuing fulfillment of awesome happenings right up to and in this Time that we are living and approaching the Final Redemption. Similarly, it is no less than supernatural how the Biblical Message and Guidance of the weekly Parashot Cycles are fulfilled in current weekly World News Events and the progressive advancement towards Final Redemption of the Nation and Land of Israel and its Message serving as a Light unto the Nations.
Of course, in the end, it is the individual personal involvement and spiritual development that is important to us all. While weekly Rabbinic commentaries on the Parashot are in abundance, eased by the Internet communications these days, there seems to be a neglected area of a lack of weekly commentaries on the accompanying Haftarot and their guidance for us towards Final Redemption. We shall therefore endeavour in our weekly Newsletter to seek and present such Scriptural guidance from the abundant informed Torah sources that are available to us today and correlate it to current News events where possible.

Parashat Va’yechi – War of Armageddon (Gog Magog) – by Rabbi Ari Goldwag
What is the parallel between the blessings of Jacob and that which occurs on Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur? Why do the 10 tribes gather to the portions of Yehuda and Benjamin in the Land? Why do they need to ‘show honor’ to Judah and Benjamin – as Jacob prophesied in this portion to Judah […]

Denial: It’s Not Just a River in Egypt
by Rabbi Yitzchak Zweig Aish.com Ki TeiTzei 5781 – Aug. 15, 2021 https://www.aish.com/tp/ss/ssw/Ki-Seitzei-5781-Denial-Its-Not-Just-a-River-in-Egypt.html GOOD MORNING!

Defining God
Shalom, Can we, should we try and define God? The general response from a Jewish perspective would be a distinct: No! We are not to define Him. It is absolutely impossible and can only lead to desecrating Him. Christianity’s response is totally the opposite. They have brought Him down to a human level. What is […]
The Secret Key to finding Final Truth: LISTEN – ‘Shemah’

The rest are divided amongst various ‘Faiths’, each sector believing that they only have the Truth. Any additional consideration of deeper or wider Truth is only done in personal, favored sectors. Inter-faith consideration […]
