Torah and the Nations
Rabbi David Levine Yom Shabbat, Saturday, April 19, 2008
Parsha: Acharei Mot - Leviticus 16–18 Haftarah: Amos 9:7-15 With additional references from Acts 15
When Gentiles became disciples of Yeshua, the Messianic Jewish Apostles decided that the Gentiles did not have to convert to Judaism. Circumcision wasn’t required, therefore, but t’vilah (immersion in water) was. And some of the specific food and sexual laws were also required of the Gentiles, especially those listed in this week’s Torah portion. Rabbi David looks back at those decisions with a fresh perspective for our times during this Passover season.
