Today we will celebrate a belated 'Simchat Torah' (The Joy of Torah) which is a festival that marks the completion of the annual reading of the Torah and the beginning of a new cycle of readings. With joy and celebration, we will give thanks to God for his written Word, the Bible, as well as the Word of God made flesh, Yeshua our Messiah. Rabbi Lawrence will share a message titled, “Simchat Torah - Rejoicing in the Word.”
Key verses:
“I rejoice in Your word, as one who finds great spoil.” (Psalm 119:162, TLV)
“And the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us. We looked upon His glory, the glory of the one and only from the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14, TLV)
