 Parsha 53: Ha’azinu הַאֲזִינוּ‎ (Listen)  ‎‎‎

Parsha in 60 Seconds Presents Ha’azinu

Parsha 53

Shalom and welcome to the Parsha in 60 seconds Today’s portion is from Deuteronomy 32:1-52 it is called Haazinu which means “listen” Moses asked that his speech be like rain and dew for the grass and proclaims that God is perfect and his children unworthy. Moses reminds the Israelites that God chose the them as God’s own people. God found the Israelites in the desert and watched over them like an eagle on his nest. God would give the Israelites everything and like spoiled children they would abandoned God for false-gods and demons. So God will hide himself from them and bring judgment among them but would not wipe them out. When other nations would come against Israel thinking that their own might was causing Israel’s judgment, God would rise up and avenge the servants of God. That day would be a great day of judgment and cleansing. Moses and Joshua recited all these words as a poem to the people. When Moses finished reciting, he told them to take his warnings to heart and teach their children, for it was very serious and their very lives were at stake. Moses then climbs Mount Nebo and to see the land of Canaan and die because he had struck the rock to produce water in the wilderness of Zin, failing to uphold God’s sanctity among the Israelite people. And that is Haazinu in 60 seconds.

Scripture Readings for this week

Parshah 52: Vayelekh (And He Went) וַיֵּלֶךְ

Parsha in 60 Seconds Presents Vayelech

Parsha 52

Shalom and welcome to the Parsha in 60 seconds Today’s portion is from Deuteronomy 31:1-30 it is called Vayelech which means “then he went out” It is Moses 120th birthday and go in or come out. Crossing the Jordan River was not an option for Moses. God would destroy the nations ahead of them with Joshua. God would destroy the nations just like he did with the kings of the Amorites. Moses exhorted the Israelites and Joshua to be strong and courageous, for God would go with them and would not forsake them. Moses wrote the law and delivered it to the priests, the sons of Levi, who bore the Ark of the Covenant and to all the elders of Israel. Every seven years during Sukkot, all Israel was to appear in the place that God would choose and read the Law. As Moses is about to die from old age, God instructs Moses to call Joshua so that God can bless him. God appeared in a pillar of cloud over the door of the Tent and tells Moses that he was about to die, the people freak out and rebel. To stop this rebellion God directed Moses to write a song and teach it to the Israelites so that the song might serve as a witness for God against the Israelites. After the song and law was written Moses commanded the Levites who bore the Ark of the Covenant to take the book and put it by the side of the Ark so that it might serves as a witness against the people. Moses knew that even that day, the people had been rebelling against God. Moses knew that after his death, the Israelites would deal corruptly and turn away from the commandments, and evil would befall them because they would do that which was evil in the sight of God. And Moses spoke to all the assembly of Israel the words of the song. And that is Vayelech in 60 seconds.

Scripture Readings for this week

–Parshah 51: Nitzavim (Standing) נִצָּבִים

Parsha in 60 Seconds Presents Nitzavim

Parsha 51

Shalom and welcome to the Parsha in 60 seconds Today’s portion is from Deuteronomy 29:9-30:20 it is called Nitzavim which means “one’s standing” Moses tells the Israelites that today they were entering into the covenant with God, those who were present and those who were absent were now in covenant. Moses reminded the Israelites that other nations worshiped wood and stone idols and that some Israelites would join them thinking they are immune, but God would never forgive them; rather God’s anger would rage against them until every curse recorded in the Torah would come down upon them and God had blotted out their names and sent them to exile. However, if they remembered God during exile they would be brought back in love by God and all who oppose Israel will receive all the curses. Moses insisted that law was not hart to keep, too baffling, beyond reach; rather it was very close to them, in their mouths and hearts. Moses said that he set before them the choice between life and prosperity on the one hand and death and adversity on the other. Moses repeats himself several times and calls heaven and earth to witness that he had put before the Israelites life and death, blessing and curse. He highly advises life as the best option so that they might have life and long endure on the land that God swore to their ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And that is Nitzavim in 60 seconds.

– Parashah 50:  Ki Tavo (When You Come) – כִִּּי־תָבוֹא

Parsha in 60 Seconds Presents Ki Tavo

Parsha 50

Today’s portion is from Deuteronomy 26:1-29:8 it is called Ki Tavo which means “when you enter” Once the Israelites had entered the land they were to give first fruits and recite their history from Abraham to their present day and thank God for the land. Moses instructed that after giving the tithe to the Levites and poor, they were to declare a big memorized speech. Moses encouraged them to observe these laws faithfully. God was their God and Israel was God’s people. As soon as they had crossed the Jordan River, they set up large stones on Mount Ebal inscribed on them words from Torah and build and alter for worship. Blessings were spoken on Mount Gerizim and curses on Mount Ebal. Those cursed included anyone who: made a sculptured image; insulted father or mother; moved a fellow countryman’s landmark; misdirected a blind person; subverted the rights of the stranger, the fatherless, or the widow; lay with his father’s wife; lay with any beast; lay with his sister; lay with his mother-in-law; struck down his fellow countryman in secret; accepted a bribe in a murder case; or otherwise would not observe the commandments; and everyone said Amen. If the people obeyed God’s laws they would prosper in everything if they failed to obey they would be cursed, destroyed and exiled. Moses than reminds the people of everything they have been through and how God was with them the entire time. And that is Ki Tavo in 60 seconds.
