Double Parsha Behar-Bechukotai (Leviticus 25-27)

Double Parsha: Behar-Bechukotai

Day#1: Leviticus 25:8-18

(Part 2-Study Notes)

(Leviticus 25:8-10)

HaKadosh Baruch Hu then commands that we are to count off 7 weeks of years. This Is a fancy way of saying 7 x 7 years, which equals 49 years.

In the 7^th month (Tishrei), we shall sound the horn. If you recall from last week’s parsha study, this is likely the celebration of Rosh Hashanah On the 1^st of the month, which would be the start of the 50^th year. Again, Rosh Hashanah starts a calendar year, but not the festival year.

Behar: when translated from Hebrew to English means “on the mountain.” In relation to this parsha study, Behar is referencing “Behar Sinai” or “On The Mountain of Sinai.”

Behar

וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר יְהֹוָה֙ אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֔ה בְּהַ֥ר סִינַ֖י לֵאמֹֽר׃

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying:

דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם כִּ֤י תָבֹ֙אוּ֙ אֶל־הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲנִ֖י נֹתֵ֣ן לָכֶ֑ם וְשָׁבְתָ֣ה הָאָ֔רֶץ שַׁבָּ֖ת לַיהֹוָֽה׃
