Description

ZARABEN.ORG [http://zaraben.org/] presents a teaching on HaShemini (“Eight”), exploring the spiritual symbolism of “fatness” as a sign of abundance that can lead to complacency, insensitivity, and even rebellion against YHVH’s commandments. RC JedidiYah contrasts this with the concept of circumcision—not merely physical, but a complete cutting away that represents heartfelt submission and devotion. The episode emphasizes that Torah principles and the sacrificial system extend beyond the physical temple, pointing to a life of continual offering—whether through repentance, gratitude, or willing obedience. Drawing near (qarab) to YHVH is shown to be costly, requiring total surrender of one’s life, household, and attitudes, including humility in relationships with others, since wrongdoing against people is also sin against Him. Ultimately, this teaching highlights that those called by YHVH’s name—identified with Israel—must approach Him according to His prescribed ways in the Torah, not through personal interpretation, religious tradition, or convenience.

27_ Tazria (3 of 3): Hidden Sin

ZARABEN.ORG [http://zaraben.org/] Studios presents Torah Teaching 27, Part 3 of Tazria. In this teaching, RC JedidiYah explores the spiritual disease of Tazria, focusing on fabrics and clothing as symbolic representations of false coverings, outward facades, and counterfeit religious practices that must be brought before a priest for Torah-based examination and judgment. JedidiYah emphasizes that confession by itself may not be sufficient. He warns against hidden sin, self-diagnosis, and postponing repentance, stressing the importance of bringing spiritual issues into the light for proper evaluation and cleansing.   Prepare by Reading: Vayikra (Leviticus) 12:1-13:59 Also Read from the  *Nevi’im (Prophets)* M’lakhim Bet (2 kings)  2 kings 18 WHEN: May 03, 2025 @ 9:00 AM

27_ Tazria (1 of 3): Seed of Affliction

ZARABEN.ORG [http://zaraben.org/] studios presents Torah Teaching 27 on “Tazria,” explaining its roots in Zara (“to sow/scatter seed”) and the principle that what is conceived and brought forth corresponds to the seed planted. RC JedidiYah then connects “Zara/seed” to spiritual outcomes and introduces the laws of Tzarat (affliction/leprosy) as outward signs of inward spiritual issues requiring priestly diagnosis, isolation, and weekly re-examination. He warns against long-standing “old” Tzarat tied to chronic issues requiring change (sin), emphasizing submission, humility, and prompt correction, while previewing later discussion on slander, gossip, pride, and overreaching.
