After being away for six weeks it's good to be home at Hebron, enjoying the peace, tranquility and country views. "Ahh, how's the serenity!" Figs on Trevor's young tree While I was away I pondered this balance between our spiritual and temporal lives and how being torah observant provides that bridge between the both. This bridging is like the Dance of the Machanayim. Song of Songs 6:13 Return, return, Shulammite! Return, return, that we may gaze at you. Lover Why do you desire to gaze at the Shulammite, As at the dance of Machanayim? The dance of the Machanayim, or the dance of the two armies, refers to the meeting Jacob had with angels after making his covenant with Laban. The meeting of the heavenly and the earthly; the meeting of YHVH and mankind. This lifestyle can be one of beauty and gracefulness, bringing us in close relationship with our Creator and Messiah and in the future one that will be looked upon with envy....
The Hebron Herald keeps our Messianic community, Healing to the Nations, up to date with happenings on Hebron Community Farm. I also add short encouragements and thoughts on YHVH's shalom, kindness and wisdom that is expressed in His torah and feasts.
