UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2024 #Psalm 149In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".Get Updates, Links Online!

UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2024 #Psalm 111In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".Get Updates, Links Online!

TESTIFY Tuesdays | #DSR Discipleship Radio #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSocietyRastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term"testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (NewName: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which theyhave faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (asSt. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, WhatJah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as TrueChristians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In thecurrent age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonieson the internet in word, sound and power.

Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.TEXT I & I LIVE ON THE AIR & ANYTIME! @ 646-494-4722

I & I RasTafari Sabbath Eve Podcast Rss @LOJSociety Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety." We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2023 #Psalm 64In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".Get Updates, Links Online!

UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2023 #Psalm 91In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".Get Updates, Links Online!

It is the first word of the Song of Moses, which begins with the words “Give ear (Ha’azinu), O heavens, and let me speak” (Deuteronomy 32:1).Rab Yehudah said, “The day when rain falls is as great as the day when the Torah was given, as it is said [in Deuteronomy 32:2], ‘Let my teaching drop as the rain.’ [When Moses said] “teaching”, he meant Torah, as it is said of the Torah [in Proverbs 4:2] “For I give you sound teaching; do not abandon my Torah.” (b.Ta’anit 7a)https://www.lojs.org/this-weeks-reading-53/

Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."

UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2023 #Psalm 95
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

TESTIFY Tuesdays | #discipleship #rastaradio #rastafari #lionofjudah #rastaman @LOJSociety
Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

TESTIFY Tuesdays | #discipleship #rastaradio #rastafari #lionofjudah #rastaman @LOJSociety
Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

Devarim means “words.” The English-speaking world calls this book Deuteronomy.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

Korah (korach, קורח) was the name of a prominent Levite. It is also the name of the thirty-eighth reading from the Torah. It comes from the first verse of this week’s reading, which says, “Now Korah the son of Izhar... took action” (Numbers 16:1).This week’s Torah reading tells the story of how Korah led an unsuccessful rebellion against Moses and Aaron.
A proverb says, "Woe to the wicked, and woe to his neighbor." This applies to Dathan and Abiram, the neighbors of Korah. Dathan and Abiram were neighbors with a contentious man. That is why they were punished with him and were swept from the world. (Numbers Rabbah 17:5)

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

Recall that the Torah instructed (Lev. 23:15-16) that we count from the day following Passover (i.e., Nisan 16) for exactly seven weeks, until Sivan 5 (i.e., from April 9th until May 28h this year). On the 50th day (i.e., Sivan 6), a special celebration was to be observed. This annual "countdown period" recalls both the time from the Passover until the revelation at Sinai, and the advent of the Holy Spirit (רוח הקודש) among Rabboni (Our Master) Yeshua's disciples in Jerusalem (Acts 2:1-4). Note: The 49-day plus one Omer (Sheaf of Wheat) Count traditionally is said by some other Jews to begin on the day after the Passover (i.e., Nisan 16).For Commentary: https://www.lojs.org/this-weeks-portion

The Torah contains an instruction to eat unleavened bread, specifically, on the first night of Passover and to eat only unleavened bread during the entire week of Passover. (Exodus 12:17-20). The Sages teach that this is because the Children of Israel and the Hebrews left Egypt with such haste that there was no time to allow baked bread to rise; thus flat, unleavened bread, matza, is a reminder of the rapid departure of the Exodus. Matza has also been called Lechem Oni (Hebrew: "bread of poverty") serving as a symbol to remind Jews what it is like to be a poor slave and to promote humility, appreciate freedom, and avoid the inflated ego symbolized by more luxurious leavened bread.For more information visit:

Traditionally, families and friends gather in the evening to read the Haggadah, an ancient work derived from the Mishnah. The Haggadah contains the narrative of the Israelite & Hebrew exodus from Egypt, special blessings and rituals, commentaries from the Talmud, and Passover songs. The Seder is performed by a community or by multiple generations of a family, retelling of the story of the liberation of the Israelites & Hebrews from slavery in ancient Egypt. This story is in the Book of Exodus. The Seder itself is based on the Biblical verse commanding Jews to retell the story of the Exodus from Egypt: "You shall tell your child on that day, saying, 'It is because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.'" (Exodus 13:8). In the Book of Jeremiah, the Restoration of Israel is foretold "Therefore behold, days are coming," declares the LORD, "when it will no longer be said, 'As the LORD lives, who brought up the Children of Israel out of the land of Egypt, But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the Children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers."

UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2023 #Psalm138In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".Get Updates, Links Online!

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
In our culture, we believe that a person should marry whoever he or she falls in love with. This is a bad plan. It is possible to fall in love with the wrong person. It is possible to fall in love with many wrong persons. Falling in love is a terrible criteria upon which to base a marriage. It would have been easy for Isaac to fall in love with any number of Canaanite girls. Why didn’t he? Because Abraham would not allow it. Abraham placed clear and specific limits around Isaac’s potential mates.

Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

Celebrating the Torah...Each week in synagogues all across the world, a portion from the Torah (called a parashah) is chanted. Jewish tradition has divided the Torah into 54 parashiyot - roughly one portion for each week of the year - so that in the course of a year the entire Torah has been recited during services.
Torah: Deut. 33:1-34:12; Genesis 1:1-2:3; Vzot-Haberakhah
Prophets: Josh. 1:1-18
New Testament: Rev. 22:1-21
The final reading of this cycle occurs on Simchat Torah ("Joy of the Torah"), a Rabbinical festival celebrating both the completion of the year's Torah Reading cycle as well as the start of a new cycle.
During Simchat Torah the last Torah portion (from Deuteronomy) is read as well as the first verses of the first portion (from Genesis), thereby indicating that Talmud Torah - the study of Torah - never ends. The idea that Torah study is cyclical finds expression in the ritual of dancing around and around the Torah, known as hakkafot.
Simchat Torah - This holiday marks the completion of the Torah reading cycle for the year. Simchat Torah is based on the "hakhel gathering" commanded by God in the Torah: "At the end of every seven years, at the set time in the year of release, at the Feast of Sukkot, when all Israel comes to appear before the LORD your God ... you shall read this Torah before all Israel in their hearing. Assemble the people, men, women, and little ones, and the sojourner within your towns, that they may hear and learn to fear the LORD your God, and be careful to do all the words of this Torah" Deuteronomy 31:10-12
The Festival of Sukkot | The Feast of Tabernacles: Sukkot 8 #SheminiAtzeret
Shemini Atzeret
Torah: Deut. 14:22-16:17; Num. 29:35-30:1
Prophets: 1 Kings 8:54-8:66
New Testament: Matt. 17:1-9; Mark 12:28-33
The seven days of Sukkot that end with Hoshana Rabba are immediately followed by another holiday called Shemini Atzeret, referred to in the Torah (Numbers 29:35) simply as "the eighth day of assembly." The sages interpreted this to mean that God asks all who made pilgrimage for Sukkot to tarry (atzeret, which comes from the Hebrew root word meaning "to hold back") with Him one additional day.
In addition, in Temple times during the week of Sukkot seventy bulls were sacrificed as Musaf offerings on the altar (for the seventy nations of the earth), but on Shemini Atzeret only one bull was sacrificed - for Israel alone:
"You may compare it to a king who had a festival for seven days and invited all the nations of the world to the seven days of feasting. When the seven days were over and the guests had gone, he said to his friend (Israel), 'Let us now have a small meal together, just you and I.'" (Bamidbar Rabbah 21, Sukkah 55b)

The seventh (and last) day of Sukkot is called Hoshana Rabba (הוֹשַׁנָא רַבָּא), or the "Great Salvation," a climactic day of praise to the LORD that was also viewed by the rabbis as a mini-Yom Kippur, the day on which the heavenly decrees made on Rosh Hashanah and sealed on Yom Kippur are actually sent out to be fulfilled: According to the Mishnah (Sukkah 4:5), during the Temple period, willow branches were placed around the altar and a parade was made around the altar while the people recited: Hoshi'ah na (הוֹשִׁיעָה נָּא) - "Save us, please!" (Psalm 118:25).

Sukkot Overview: Season of Our Joy!
The seventh (and final) feast given to Israel is called Sukkot or the "Feast of Tabernacles." During this time, many Jewish families construct a sukkah (lit. Booth) to remember how Israel lived in during their 40 year sojourn in the wilderness after the exodus from Egypt. Later, after Israel entered the land of promise, Sukkot was associated with the fall harvest and came to be known as Chag ha-Asif, the "Festival of Ingathering" (of the harvest) at the end of the year.
From a spiritual perspective, Sukkot corresponds to the joy of knowing your sins were forgiven and also recalls God's miraculous provision and care after the deliverance from bondage in Egypt. Prophetically, Sukkot anticipates the coming kingdom of Yeshua the Messiah wherein all the nations shall come up to Jerusalem to worship the LORD during the festival. In light of the work of Yeshua as our Kohen Gadol (high priest) of the New Covenant, we now have access to the Heavenly Temple of God; members of the Temple of His body.

Later, after Israel entered the land of promise, Sukkot was associated with the fall harvest and came to be known as Chag ha-Asif, the "Festival of Ingathering" (of the harvest) at the end of the year.
From a spiritual perspective, Sukkot corresponds to the joy of knowing your sins were forgiven and also recalls God's miraculous provision and care after the deliverance from bondage in Egypt. Prophetically, Sukkot anticipates the coming kingdom of Yeshua the Messiah wherein all the nations shall come up to Jerusalem to worship the LORD during the festival. In light of the work of Yeshua as our Kohen Gadol (high priest) of the New Covenant, we now have access to the Heavenly Temple of God; members of the Temple of His body.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2022 #Psalm60
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

"Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events.

Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2022 #Psalm73
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

"Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

"Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

"Now the people became like those who complain of adversity in the hearing of the LORD." (Numbers 11:1) God is slow to anger—usually. Complaining can incite His swift wrath. The book of Numbers contains several stories of Israel's discontent in the wilderness. In each story, the Israelites complain about something and God punishes them for complaining.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety
UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2022 #Psalm11
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

Just as Moses, the first redeemer, redeemed all Israel from slavery, so too the second redeemer, Messiah, redeems the whole nation. And this great second redemption is not only a spiritual redemption, but it is the literal, physical redemption of Israel. He will gather the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob from the nations, and restore them to the land of Israel.

"Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

THE JUBILEE YEAR
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
The sabbatical year and Jubilee law reminds us that, ultimately, everything belongs to God. We do not really own anything. Instead, "The earth is the LORD'S, and all it contains" (Psalm 24:1). In Western society it is easy to get caught in the trap of materialism. We unconsciously measure our quality of life based on the value of our possessions. A person cannot truly own things. We are just short-term borrowers.
COMMENTARY:
You are also to count off seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, so that you have the time of the seven sabbaths of years, namely, forty-nine years. (Leviticus 25:8)

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
The appointed times can be called a cycle because they recur in a cyclical fashion, creating patterns and rhythms in time. The Sabbath creates a weekly cycle. The festivals occur annually. Each appointed time teaches unique lessons about Messiah, salvation, redemption, sanctification and our relationship with God. Each time we keep one of God's appointed times, it is an opportunity to spiritually elevate ourselves, drawing ever closer to God.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
What does a holy person look like? Do you picture a priest or a nun? Maybe a preacher? Perhaps you imagine a Chassidic Jew with a full beard, side locks and black hat. Leviticus 19-20 contains the Bible's description of what holiness looks like. The passage begins with the words, "Speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel and say to them, 'You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy'" (Leviticus 19:2).
COMMENTARY:
One of the laws of holiness states, "You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, nor lie to one another" (Leviticus 19:11).

We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

Chag Matza Sameach! "Joyful Feast of Unleavened Bread!"
A symbol of the Passover holiday is matza, an unleavened bread. The Torah contains an instruction to eat unleavened bread, specifically, on the first night of Passover and to eat only unleavened bread during the entire week of Passover. (Exodus 12:17-20).
The Sages teach that this is because the Children of Israel and the Hebrews left Egypt with such haste that there was no time to allow baked bread to rise; thus flat, unleavened bread, matza, is a reminder of the rapid departure of the Exodus. Matza has also been called Lechem Oni (Hebrew: "bread of poverty") serving as a symbol to remind Jews what it is like to be a poor slave and to promote humility, appreciate freedom, and avoid the inflated ego symbolized by more luxurious leavened bread.

Traditionally, families and friends gather in the evening to read the Haggadah, an ancient work derived from the Mishnah. The Haggadah contains the narrative of the Israelite & Hebrew exodus from Egypt, special blessings and rituals, commentaries from the Talmud, and Passover songs.
The Seder is performed by a community or by multiple generations of a family, retelling of the story of the liberation of the Israelites & Hebrews from slavery in ancient Egypt. This story is in the Book of Exodus. The Seder itself is based on the Biblical verse commanding Jews to retell the story of the Exodus from Egypt: "You shall tell your child on that day, saying, 'It is because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.'" (Exodus 13:8). In the Book of Jeremiah, the Restoration of Israel is foretold "Therefore behold, days are coming," declares the LORD, "when it will no longer be said, 'As the LORD lives, who brought up the Children of Israel out of the land of Egypt, But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the Children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers." (Jeremiah 16:14-15)

UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2022 #Psalm53 #Rastafari @LOJSociety
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
Messiah is our redeemer. He has redeemed us from slavery, from sin, from condemnation and from death. He is our kinsmen redeemer, our brother in the house of God, who has ransomed us from the debt we could not pay. Therefore, we speak of Him as redeemer. He is also the national redeemer of Israel. Just as Moses, the first redeemer, redeemed all Israel from slavery, so too the second redeemer, Messiah, redeems the whole nation. And this great second redemption is not only a spiritual redemption, but it is the literal, physical redemption of Israel. He will gather the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob from the nations, and restore them to the land of Israel.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: The sacrifices after childbirth remind us that the act of giving birth is itself a miraculous encounter with the Divine. It is not to be regarded as just ordinary life. Instead, the Torah grants the event sanctity and significance by requiring sacrifices. The new baby is a gift from God, and the mother naturally wants to reciprocate with a gift. She brings a burnt offering and a sin offering as her gifts to God, who blessed her with a child.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2022 #Psalm47 #Rastafari @LOJSociety
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

COMMENTARY: The Torah says. The priests used flames from the altar to light the menorah, and they used the coals from the altar to burn the incense on the golden altar. Fire brought from some source other than the altar is referred to as strange fire.
How did they keep the fire burning when transporting the altar?

The paradox between the immanence of God and the transcendence of God paradox is illustrated in the mechanics of the Tabernacle. The uncontainable, inapproachable God is somehow contained (so to speak) within and maybe approached within a physical Tabernacle on Earth. The paradox between immanence and transcendence is also obvious in our sorry attempts to form a Christology which would explain the divine nature of Messiah. It is a mystery no less profound than the mystery of God taking up residence within the space of the Tabernacle. It would seem to be an impossibility; nonetheless, He did.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2022 #Psalm88 #Rastafari @LOJSociety
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

"Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2022 #Psalm46 #Rastafari @LOJSociety
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

REMEMBER THE SABBATH
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:
If the covenant ceremony at Mount Sinai can be compared to a wedding, then the Sabbath can be compared to a wonderful wedding gift. Wrapped up in blessing and holiness, it is a gift that continues to radiate the love of God every week.
COMMENTARY: Remember the sabbath day. (Exodus 20:8)
The LORD commands Israel to remember the Sabbath. What does it mean to “remember” the Sabbath? Was there ever a danger of forgetting to keep the Sabbath? In Semitic culture, the word “remember” has clear covenant connotations. To remember means to act in faithfulness to the covenant.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2021 #Psalm101 #Rastafari @LOJSociety
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, The"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

"Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events.

RESURRECTION IN THE TORAH
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:Part of life is preparing for death, and part of preparing for death is preparing for life after death. Jacob prepared for death in full confidence because he had a relationship with the living God.
COMMENTARY:Some cynics say that religion is a crutch for people who fear death. That may sometimes be the case, but it certainly does not apply to those who study Torah. The Torah does not say much about life after death. It’s really not a book about how to go to heaven or what happens after we die.

How was Joseph able to offer his brothers such a gracious and total pardon? He did so on the basis of his confidence in God’s goodness. He saw that, though the brothers had meant his sale into slavery for evil, God meant it for good. Everything had worked according to God’s plan and wisdom.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

"Rastafari in general, especially within the LionOfJudahSociety “trod” or tradition, use the term "testify" or "to give one's testimony" to mean "the story of how one became a Rastafari (New Name: Christian)". Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

The Hebrew word Hanukkah (חֲנֻכָּה) means "dedication" and marks an eight day winter celebration that commemorates the victory of faith over the ways of speculative reason, and demonstrates the power of the miracle in the face of mere humanism. Although it is customarily observed as a "Festival of Lights," Chanukah is a "fighting holiday" -- a call to resist the oppression of this world and to exercise faith in the LORD (Rom 13:12).

Commonly it may refer to a specific event in a Rastafarian’s life in which they have faith that JAH has done something deemed particularly worth sharing and testifying to (as St. Peter Tosh sings in his psalm, “Testify”; Peter Tosh - Testify. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.. I said I, I'm gonna testify, What Jah has done for I.). We as Rastafari, as True Christians do, often give our testimony at their own fire baptism or at Rastafarian events. In the current age of the Internet, many Rastafari sons and daughters have also placed their testimonies on the internet in word, sound and power.

Thank JAH It's Friday has a completely different meaning than simply “Thank God It’s Friday” for the Rastafari Church of the Firstborn and faithful Black Jews of the Synagogue (I-ssembly) of the Lion of Judah Society than for others. Sure, it's the end of the work week, but it's also a sacred time to livicate ourselves, I & I, to exploring I & I relationship with the Most I….JAH RASTAFARI. Depending on the branch of Judaism, eighteen minutes before sunset, the Shabbat candles are lit and blessed, and the evening and next day is "a rest of love freely given, a rest of truth and sincerity, a rest in peace and tranquility, in quietude and safety."
We, Spiritual Israelites, the “Soul people” and “Hebrew people of The Book” have always used music in worship of JAH (Psalm 150 is a good example); in the First and Second Temples, the Levites engaged in vocal and instrumental music, with the liturgy being sung chorally. Shabbat shalom!

UPPER Room Of Zion | #DSR Discipleship Radio | #RasTafari #LionOfJudah @LOJSociety
UR #upperroom Of #Zion 2021 #Psalm16 #Rastafari @LOJSociety
In Christian tradition, based on Acts 1:13, the"Upper Room" was said to be the site of the Last Supper (i.e. the Cenacle), but it was not. The "upper room" found in Mark 14:15 and Luke 22:12 is the site of the Last Supper. However, the UPPER Room of Zion (Acts 1:13), located on Mount Zion, in the City of David, was the usual place where the Apostles of ADONAI stayed in Jerusalem and, according to the Rastafari Encyclopedia, based upon Acts 2:42, as it is written, "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." It was thus the "First Church of the Nazarene (Our Black Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ)," and said by many to be "the first Christian church".

We, the Wombmen of Rastafari are ascendants of a looong line of biblical and extra-biblical Righteous Matriarchs, Sisters and Daughters of Sarah (1st Peter 3:6) in the Person of HRH Empress Menen Asfaw, Her Majesty Qedamawit Wollete Giyorgis the Perfect Consort-Royal Wife of Our Abba-Father HIM QEDAMAWI HAILE SELASSIE. Calling all Princes, Princesses, Kings & Queens in JAH Divine Mind of Wisdom and Truth. As the Called, Chosen and Faithful Disciples of Rastafari preach: We are the Daughters of INI Sarah, i.e. Itege Menen, as it is written: "Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement."
In the Right Faith of the King of Kings KRISTOS (Christ), We are Israelite-Ethiopian (Black) Royalty in Spirit and Truth, i.e. in the Flesh! Through His Wisdom, We are the Sacred Feminine: Daughters, Sisters, Wives and Mothers of RAS TAFARI, thus the First Teachers (Proverbs 1:8) representing the whole of Iration. We ARE Iration! For without the Womb of man, the Wombman, there is no Life!

PORTION COMMENTARY
BASHERT: THE REAL SOUL MATE
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: In our culture, we believe that a person should marry whoever he or she falls in love with. This is a bad plan. It is possible to fall in love with the wrong person. It is possible to fall in love with many wrong persons. Falling in love is a terrible criteria upon which to base a marriage. It would have been easy for Isaac to fall in love with any number of Canaanite girls. Why didn’t he? Because Abraham would not allow it. Abraham placed clear and specific limits around Isaac’s potential mates.
COMMENTARY: May she be the one whom You have appointed for Your servant Isaac. (Genesis 24:14)
