"In the central cities of the #Brazilian #Amazon, mainly #Manaus and #Belém, local #restaurants observe a century-old custom of serving a festive #brunch every Sunday. The special #menu includes dishes representing the diverse communities that make up #Amazonian society. Alongside local dishes and others that arrived from #Japan or #England, two surprising additions appear: #couscous and #dafina, a traditional #Jewish- #Moroccan #stew for #Shabbat. They only offer a hint of the remarkable story of the Jewish community of the Brazilian Amazon.

The story of this unique community, which today numbers only about 2,000 #Jews, alongside an estimated 300,000 non-Jewish descendants, begins in 1850. Or, in fact, it begins in 1492, when Jews were #expelled..."

Not typically a fan of Rabbi Ruttenberg, but this is an interesting, provocative thought-piece.

"Nobody would think twice about demanding a #reasonableaccommodation if #corporations asked #Jews to start violating #Shabbat or partaking of the #pork BBQ at the #company retreat against their own practice. And while I would not demand that every #Jew request such an #accommodation (for Shabbat or keeping #kosher), they should absolutely have that option available, even if their #religious practice is a work in progress. So too, here.

And despite seeing many people (including religious Jews!) eliding the moral and religious issues around #AI because "that train has already left the station," we should make choices based on whether they are right or wrong. Also, it's a fallacy: Movements grow from dissent."

They're going to use this very legitimate issue to fuck America over.

"The #US #SupremeCourt has agreed to hear the case of #DanielGrand, an #Orthodox #Jew from #Ohio who says local authorities barred him from holding #Jewish #prayer gatherings at his home and that neighbors harassed him over the practice.

The decision by the nation’s highest court to take up the case is considered highly unusual in the #American #legal system, as the Supreme Court hears only about 50 cases a year.

The dispute began in 2021. Grand, who lives in #UniversityHeights, wanted to pray with a #minyan, the quorum of 10 Jewish men required for certain communal prayers. Because Jewish law prohibits driving on #Shabbat and holidays, and the local #synagogue was too far away to reach on foot, he decided to host worshippers in his private home."

Today is Abib 15, a High Sabbath. 2000 years ago the Messiah gave up his life to pay for our transgressions. Abib 15-21 is also the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

To my fellow followers of #HaDerech (#TheWay) and the #Zadokite (#DeadSeaScrolls) calendar.

#Passover #Pesach will be on 2024-04-02 18:00 to 2024-04-03 06:00.

In Scriptural Calendar:
* Evening of 14th = 04-02 18:00; to
* Evening of 15th = 04-03 17:59.

Meanwhile, the Feast of #UnleavenedBread #ChagHaMatzot will be from 2024-04-03 to 2024-04-09.

In Scriptural Calendar:
* From the beginning of the day of 15th (sunrise) = 04-03 06:00 to
* the last evening hour of the 21st = 04-10 05:59, right before a new day begins.
* The 1st and 7th days are #HighShabbat days. No work like any other #Shabbat days.

Remember, a day (24-hour period) begins at sunrise or 06:00 (for easy reckoning), and ends until the next sunrise or 05:59 (for easy reckoning).

We observe the Feasts of YHWH because he commanded these, not because of rituals men told us to. It is fine if you stick to pure Torah instructions or if you want to add traditions, it is between you and The Most High. Just make sure you are not doing it as a ritual, otherwise, it is legalism. Do it because you want to obey The Most High. It was YHWH who commanded these, not men, and definitely not the Pharisees.

Have an amazing time with YHWH, The Most High!

Abib 18 (2023-04-08): Today, 2,000 years ago, the #Messiah resurrected on the third day as was prophesied. It was a weekly #Sabbath / #Shabbat, for the Messiah is the Master of Sabbath/Shabbat. It was not on the first day of the week, not on #Easter.

He left his tomb on Sabbath day and have shown himself to countless people who did not recognise he has resurrected. Just like how it is today!

Rejoice! For the Messiah has conquered the grave! #HeIsRisen!

#ResurrectionDay #HappyResurrectionDay

#Remnant #Torah #RenewedCovenant #TaNaKh #Scripture #Bible #Scriptures #haDerech #TheWay #Messianic #Christianity
