Building a Torah Community

After 20 years of being pioneering stewards of Hebron we still love coming together every month for a weekend of fellowship and activities.  We work just as hard on being a community as we do in maintaining and developing the property, but community definitely takes priority.  We have had the privilege of watching babies become adults, who are now an integral part of our family and community.  Raising children to love and honour their Creator in the way that He requires is an awesome privilege.  It's also not for the faint of the heart!  Having a community to support and provide a living example of honouring the ways of YHVH, even when it's not convenient, makes the task so much more wholesome. Deut 6:6-7  These words, which I am commanding you today, are to be on your heart. 7  You are to teach them diligently to your children, and speak of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down and when you rise up.  Whe...

2026 Unleavened Bread

Nearly 50 days ago Hebron hosted the Adelaide community's Pesach meal, the entry to the week of Unleavened Bread.  A smaller family group this year because a number of our community members have relocated to Mildura to start the new Good News Community. To us, Hebron is the perfect place to come together.  The beauty of the night skies can't be captured easily, but have to be experienced - which is a perfect parallel for the moedim.  You can't just read about the feasts, you have to 'do' them; experience them. The feasts are past, present and future - historic, current and perpetual.   The Creator of the heavens and earth, the author of the laws and principles of physics, has inserted into creation itself the calendar for the feasts.  Moed for remembrance, for encouragement, for observance, for refinement and for hope.    The week of Pesach, the eating of unleavened bread, was a beautiful time of reflection and allowing the Spirit of Yehovah to hi...

House of Shalom

In this time of extreme chaos and uncertainty the people of Yehovah can live in His shalom and stability.  As we follow the ancient path our lives and homes are being built on the solid Rock, Yeshua.  Platitudes, handshakes and a weekly short meeting are not going to ensure that the people are fit for what the week ahead holds, let alone fit for the spiritual battle ahead. The community of our Messiah is a place of strength, support, encouragement, discipline and refinement.  Stone by stone, we are being fit together by the Ruach so that He can fill the house with His presence.  Sometimes it's stone against stone because we as humans find change and refinement difficult, but more often than not it's only our brothers and sisters that can prompt these changes.   Prayer  (video quality pretty ordinary though!)  Our Messiah not only taught the way of righteousness, He demonstrated and lived the way of righteousness.  Humility and strength, broke...
