Prepare for the Great Feast of Shavuot with the preview in this parsha of Emor. Go deep into the purity regulations of the priests and goes to the heart of the entire legal systems of Israel. Also a key discussion on often obscured topics such as what blasphemy is and what “cut off from his people” and “his blood is on his own head” really means. You may find some of these answers surprising.
Israel is devastated and the priesthood hang by a thread. A paltry five were given the honor of the high office, but now the aftermath of the death of Nadav and Avihu has set in and now only three men stand between an entire nation and disaster, not to mention their own extinction. The stakes could not be higher in this double parsha that is chock full of linguistic and prophetic surprises!

From childbirth to advanced infectious disease protocols, this parsha should be required reading for all medical students. Learn what Father Yah has to say about how to give birth and keep the community safe from everything from leprosy, to houses that have fallen ill (yes, literally) to making sure all clothing and cooking utensils remain safe. It’s not First Aid–it’s better–because when your priest is your doctor you know you can always keep him.

Just when the priesthood is gearing to begin its service, tragedy strikes when two of the five priests die for disobedience. What happened with that “strange fire” and how did it forever alter the Torah? What are the prophetic ramifications for later in Scriptural history and to our own times?
