A History Lesson You'll Never Forget ✡ "Set Aside a Portion for God" - ISRAEL365

It shall be that when you eat of the bread of the Land, you shall set aside a portion for God. Numbers 15:19 (The Israel Bible™)   וְהָיָה בַּאֲכָלְכֶם מִלֶּחֶם הָאָרֶץ תָּרִימוּ תְרוּמָה לַי-הוָה במדבר טו:יט v'-ha-YAH b'a-khal-KHEM mi-LE-khem ha-A-retz ta-REE-mu t'-ru-MAH la-a-do-NAI

Today's Israel Inspiration The Torah portion, which includes today's verse, contains the commandment to set aside a portion of one's bread to offer up as a gift to the priest in the Temple in Jerusalem. The nation relied on the priests for spiritual matters, and in turn, these servants of God relied on the nation for their physical sustenance through the gifts of the 'bread of the land'. Thus this symbiosis teaches us that in order to achieve both spiritual sustenance and physical nourishment, unity and partnership is of the utmost necessity. Colel Chabad, Israel's oldest charity, has taken this lesson and not only provides food and aid to underprivileged families, but also encourages attainment of spiritual goals and sponsors Jewish families who wish to more deeply connect with their roots.
