Get StartedThe Transcendence of Shabbat (Part 1 of 5)
The Deep Connection Between The Biblical Holidays
Rabbi Fohrman begins this fascinating series on the Shalosh Regalim, Three Pilgrimage Festivals: Passover, Sukkot and Shavuot, by first taking a look at where we are introduced to these holidays in the Bible. The chapter on the holidays (in Leviticus) seems to begin in an odd place and has many references to Shabbat, which seems to be out of place. What can the Shabbat have in common with these holidays?
Join Rabbi Fohrman as he begins to paint a beautiful picture where fantastic patterns begin to emerge. Shabbat seems to be a much bigger element in our world than we’ve ever realized. Understanding this concept is crucial in understanding the holiday cycle.
