The English translation of Exodus 12:6 is given this way: “And ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.” The literal Hebrew translation for “evening” is “between two evenings.” Now, isn’t it amazing, when you […]
During biblical times, in obedience to God’s commandment in the Torah (Law), the ancient Israelites came up to Jerusalem to present the first fruits of the wheat harvest in the Temple.
