New Book coming soon: Biblically Kosher

Submitted by Beth Immanuel on Mon, 2012-01-09 12:45

First Fruits of Zion is now accepting pre-orders for Aaron Eby's new book Biblically Kosher: A Messianic Perspective on Kashrut. Its release date is February 1, 2012.

There is much more to the Bible’s food laws than saying, "Hold the bacon." Learn what the Bible, ancient Rabbis, and the Apostles teach about eating. Did Jesus put ham, shrimp, and snails back on the table?  See how a Messianic Jewish perspective provides important cultural context and uncovers the true meaning of New Testament passages about eating. Find out what it really means to eat biblically.

To learn more about this book and the biblical food laws, visit http://www.biblicallykosher.com.  To pre-order now, visit http://ffoz.com/biblically-kosher.html.

Friday Morning Rashi Study

Do you want to understand and become familiar with Jewish sources but do not know where to start?

Join our Friday morning group as we study Rashi's commentary on the weekly parashah. We meet from 7:30 - 8:30 am each week in the Beth Immanuel library. If you can only come to a part of the class, that's just fine.

You can also join the class live online by visiting our hangout on Google+. See instructions at the end of this post.

Rashi, an 11th century rabbi, is one of the most prolific authors in Judaism. His commentaries on the Hebrew Scriptures and on the Talmud are considered foundational. Learning Rashi's commentary on the Torah is an essential part of a basic Jewish education.
