Biblical Faith - with Sam Peak
Weekly series with new shows available every Tuesday.
We have discovered that there was a primeval creation in which the heavenly bodies and the globe that we inhabit were created. The surface of the earth, however, was destroyed and recreated 974 times. The last creation, which formed the ground beneath our feet and our earliest ancestors, took place some 5,700 years ago. That creation began on the twenty-fifth of Ellul and cumlminated on the first of Tishre. For this reason all historical dates are calculated from the first of Tishre, for the creation of mankind is the beginning of history.
From “Mysteries of the Creation” by Rabbi Dovid Brown. We are studying from the following pages: pg. 66–73.

A prophet might fail to grasp the complete meaning of his prophecy as with Yonah. It is also possible that a truth be revealed to a prophet and he not ascertain its full meaning. This, for example, is what happened in the case of Yonah. In his prophecy, he was told, “Nineveh will be overturned (Yonah 3:4).”
From the “RaMCHaL”–Derech HaShem–Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto. Page 227–233.

Without the scarifices and their associated maamodot the heavens and the earth would not endure. The Torah relates that Avraham asked Elokim, “How can I know that I will inherit the Land You promised me?” Avraham meant by this statement: “Perhaps Yisrael will sin and You will deal with them as You did with the generation of the mabbul or the generation of the Tower.” Elokim denied that. Avraham countered, “With what z’chus (merit) will they avoid such a fate?” Elokim responded, “Take for Me three heifers, three goats, and three rams,” indicating to him that the korbonot which Yisrael would scarifice from these species would serve the nation. Now, if the korbonot preserve Yisrael, they in effect preserve the universe, for if Yisrael would cease to exist, the world, too, would end.
From “Mysteries of the Creation” by Rabbi Dovid Brown. We are studying from the following pages: pg. 59–60.
