Faces of the Kingdom: Miriam

Welcome back to our “Faces of the Kingdom” series! We’re meeting another young woman who played a very influential role in the Bible…and this time, it’s one who had no title, no army, and no miracle at her disposal, yet was the human instrument God used to set the entire Exodus in motion. Her story reveals that God doesn’t require a platform, a plan, or a position as…

Exodus from Egypt

Last week at Shabbat School, we learned about the Plate from the Passover. We made a representation of the elements on the plate to remind us of the elements and what they mean. Next Shabbat we continue learning about Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread and what is tells us about ADONAI and the Exodus from Egypt.

Preparing for Pesach

This last Shabbat, we explored more about the concept of Holiness and we even did a science experiment to illustrate our lesson. Vayikra, And He Called Just like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in everything you do. 1 Peter 1:15 TLV     Next week we are going to have a special lesson to prepare for Pesach.

Faces of the Kingdom: Moses

Today we’ll meet a man who was completely unqualified by every human standard, and yet became the instrument through which God delivered Bnei-Yisrael from their slavery in Egypt. He was a stuttering fugitive, a wanted man, a shepherd hiding at the edge of the wilderness; and yet he was the one that God chose to confront the most powerful empire on earth… Moses…

Learning about Shabbat

This past week in Shabbat school we had a special lesson for the Holiday of Purim. We learned how important it is to protect Adonai’s people. Esther and Mordecai were able to stand up for her people and we can do the same. Next week we return to our Torah Portions with Ki Tisa and we will learn about what Adonai tells us about the Shabbat.

Faces of the Kingdom: Mordecai

Welcome back to our “Faces of the Kingdom” series! Today we’ll meet a man whose faithfulness in the unknown would position an orphan to save a nation. Revealing that obedience without guarantees is the very essence of faith… Who Was Mordecai? Mordecai was a Jewish exile living in Shusa, the citadel of the Persian Empire. His great-grandfather had been carried…

Living in His Presence

In Shabbat School this week, we began discussing the Tabernacle, Adonai’s dwelling place in the middle of His people. Understanding how to live a holy life can be complicated at any age, but holiness means living a life set apart for G‑d. With this lesson last Shabbat, we wanted our children to understand what it truly means to live a life set apart, not just within the…
