JPOST EDITORIAL: In the spirit of Genesis 12:3, which states that God will bless those who bless the people of Israel, we bless those Christians who came to celebrate Sukkot in the Jewish state. Just as you have buoyed our spirits, we hope that you return home uplifted by your visit to the Holy Land.
JAMES F. MCGRATH: Throughout the Bible, Israel’s blessings and dwelling in the land are viewed as absolutely conditional on behavior, including among other things their treatment of the foreigners in their midst.
Yagon Torah
JULIA BLUM: Sukkot is the beginning of the rainy season in Israel, and the libation of water was performed to invoke God's blessing on the year's rains. During the ceremony, a large procession ascended to the Temple, led by a priest who bore a special golden vessel filled with the sparkling spring water. The water was then poured onto the altar.
"At mangyayari, na bawa't maiwan, sa lahat na bansa na naparoon laban sa Jerusalem ay aahon taon-taon upang sumamba sa Hari, sa Panginoon ng mga Hukbo, at upang ipangilin ang mga Kapistahan ng mga Balag" (Zechariah 14:16).
I Am Happy I Am
YACOV SEEDEATER: Shalom to all and blessings in the Name;

ANTONIO TIROL CARPIO: And of course, if you introduce yourself to the World, you have to state your territory.
It is customary for Asherite children to be most blessed. The traditional blessing is: “May the Father make you like Asher, Jonah, and Phanuel in the name of Philip” (for male Asherites) and “May the Spirit make you like Zilpah, Serah, Shua, and Anna in the names of the Daughters of Philip” (for female Asherites).
FRANCESCO FORGIONE: You must understand that the One Who is without sin is Happy.
URIEL VIGLER: Our sages tell us that when Moshiach comes the earth will be filled with laughter.
SHANA GOLDBERG: “L’Dor V’Dor,” “From Generation to Generation,” has become shorthand for [Asherite] continuity, for transmitting our [Asherite] beliefs.
Ezekiel 36:26 Reversed: I will give you an Old Heart and put an Old Spirit in you; I will remove from you your Heart of Flesh and give you a Heart of Feminine Stone.

BAHAY HABER
Virginia Millano Evangelista Fabro~Rivera: Good Morning.
Clifford Fabro Rivera: Boker Or.
LORELAI KUDE: Asher, blessed with abundance to share generously with his brethren, is the tribal ruler of Aquarius, the sign concerned with universalism, humanitarianism, the unity of individuals within communities, the network of affinities and commonalities uniting us beyond conventionally defined borders.
SHEILA NEMTIN: Moses blesses the tribe of Asher endowing them with the ability to constantly maintain their youth and vigour as the defenders of the north.
LUIS ANTONIO GOKIM TAGLE: Coming to Rome for a universal mission at a time when the lockdown occurs — I am still in awe at the surprises of God. I bring this paradox to reflection and prayer. The situation is reeducating me about the dynamic tension between the local and the universal. We should be cautious that the lockdown, quarantine and distancing not develop into a culture of isolation, indifference and prejudice.
THE PREVIOUS HOMEOWNERS WERE THE JEWISH CLAN OF HABER. ONE OF THE SONS OF HABER VISITED AND TOLD ME THAT HE FOUND A DEAD CAT IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM WHEN HE LIVED HERE.
WIKIPEDIA: Heber or Chéver (Hebrew: חֶבֶר / חָבֶר, Modern Ḥéver / Ḥáver Tiberian Ḥéḇer / Ḥāḇer, "friend", "connected") is the grandson of the patriarch Asher mentioned at Genesis 46:17 and in Numbers 26:45.
WIKIPEDIA: The name "Hebron" traces back to two Semitic roots, which coalesce in the form ḥbr, having reflexes in Hebrew and Amorite and denoting a range of meanings from "colleague", "unite" or "friend". In the proper name Hebron, the original sense may have been alliance.
SARA LERER: Asher’s sons will be princes (This is not stated about other tribes.)
SHMUEL RABINOWITZ: We are home with our families, little or no international travel, little to no international trade.
I think, what's Genius about Anna of the tribe of Asher was that she did not need to utter any prophecy about the Child Jesus, like Simeon. Her faith was largely intuitive.
LUIS ANTONIO GOKIM TAGLE: We hope we could also be like Simeon and Anna, always looking forward to seeing God’s salvation.
Opening our doors to the Jewish refugees in the past earned the Philippines the gratitude of Israel as they welcome Filipino pilgrims, tourists, and even skilled workers to their home.#TheLastManilaners directed by @nicorhernandez.

ST. PAULS: Anna does not utter any prophecy about the Child Jesus, like Simeon. She just thanks God for the Child. She also speaks about Him to her fellow Jews who, like her, await the redemption of Israel. As a prophetess, she evangelizes.
RUTH ADAR: There is a blessing for the sight of a volcanic eruption:
"Baruch Atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech haOlam, sheh-ko-KHO ug-vu-rah-TOH mah-LAY oh-LAHM.
Blessed are You, Eternal our God, Ruler of All-that-is, whose strength and power fill the world."
ASHER'S LEVITICAL OFFICE AND TITHES 🏢🏦
LAHAV HARKOV, HERB KEINON: Security: Israel will be in control of security from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea.
WIKIPEDIA: Kohanim living in Israel and many Sephardic Jews living in areas outside Israel deliver the priestly blessing daily; Kohanim can also refer to the Jewish nation as a whole as in Exodus 19:6, where the whole of Israel is addressed as "a kingdom of priests and a holy nation." Kohanim begin service at the age of twenty and some opinions state that this age was thirty. There is no mandatory retirement age.
amazon.com/Bat-Kohen-Marriage-ebook/dp/B07H23BWRT
WIKIPEDIA: Although Torah law allows for a bat-kohen to marry a challal, convert, or freed slave (Hebrew eved meshukhrar), the Midrash and Talmud cite Rabbi Yochanan's view that a daughter of the kohen is best off marrying a kohen.
A.S.K.: He went on to inform me that since the Bible demands that the tithe be paid to Levites, he said it would be wrong to pay it to anyone else. And further, because there is presently no official Levitical order of Priests ministering at a Temple in Jerusalem, this makes it illegal at this period to pay any biblical tithe.
JEWISH VIRTUAL LIBRARY: The tribe of Levi (Yoma 66b) and its 12 heads (PdRE 45) did not join the worship of the calf.
AVRAM NOAM CHOMSKY'S HOME OFFICE
EFRAIM PALVANOV: Talmud reminds us that the entire tribe of Levi did not participate in the sin. The Sages explain that this is why the Levites were elevated to the status of priests. Prior to the Golden Calf, it was the firstborn male of every family that was supposed to ascend to the priesthood. After the Calf, the Levites were designated as the priestly class, with the descendants of Aaron serving as the kohanim, the high priests. For this reason, a firstborn male must be “redeemed” from a kohen in a special ceremony known as pidyon haben thirty days (or more) after his birth.

At eight days old, I was circumcised. At age thirteen, I became a Man. At age thirty, I began a Public Ministry. At age fifty, I retired from the Priesthood. I reached age eighty with strength and Prophecied to Pharaoh. At age one hundred, I was a mere child. My eyes did not diminish nor vigor slacken, when I was one hundred and twenty years old. I was one hundred and twenty~three years old, when I scaled the Mountain.

U/RICHOKA: In modern Hebrew, the word “nazir” is usually used to refer to both Christian and Buddhist monks.
Влади́мир Миха́йлович Фили́ппов: Education is a key component of soft power.
JOSHWAXMAN: A natural progression would be to praise Asher's daughters, and so this is יְהִי רְצוּי אֶחָיו. For the daughters would be wanted by echav, which would refer to the shevatim. The prooftext that they married specifically kohanim gedolim [and / or kings], who are from the tribes of Levi or Yehuda, was a verse in Divrei Hayamim.
ROCHEL HOLZKENNER: Asher’s daughters were apparently so beautiful that bachelors from all the tribes wanted to marry them. People of the highest stature, high priests, looked for a wife from the daughters of Asher.
ORI WERTMAN: Jerusalem must act wisely in order to achieve the Israeli goals.
TZIPORAH LIFSHITZ: Both verses are explained by the beauty of daughters. Rabbi Levi and Rabbi Simon make use of insights emerging from the derasha concerning "As for Asher, his bread is fat” to develop the idea; the key point is not the beauty of daughters, but rather their marriages to kings and priests, which bring happiness and honor to their tribe of origin.
Q: The daughters of which tribe married High Priests and Kings?
VINCENT'S WORD STUDIES: Asher
VINCENT'S WORD STUDIES: That tribe was celebrated in tradition for the beauty of its women, and their fitness to be wedded to high-priests or kings.
WIKIPEDIA: Huldah was a relative of Jeremiah, both being descendants of Rahab by her marriage with Joshua (Sifre, Num. 78; Meg. 14a, b). Huldah was regarded as a prophet accustomed to speaking the word of God directly to high priests and royal officials, to whom high officials came in supplication, who told kings and nations of their fates, who had the authority to determine what was and was not the genuine Law, and who spoke in a manner of stern command when acting as a prophet.
TZIPORAH LIFSHITZ: Moreover, the beauty of daughters allows us to understand two very cryptic verses about the tribe of Asher. Leah’s “Happy am I! For daughters call me happy” presumes that daughters are a vehicle for joy, but we do not know why. Moshe’s “Blessed be Asher above sons; let him be the favored of his brothers” prompts us to ask why Asher deserves this privileged status.
Antonio Hernández: 18. ASHER was never found, nor even traces of its possible routes. Scholars expected to find Asherite Levites on the Ile de Djerba_ that is to say, Levites accompanying the Asherites. None were found that could be authenticated in any way. More thoughts about the tribe of ASHER will be offered in the conclusion.
Antonio Hernández: The tribe of ASHER, if any remnants of it exist, could be anyplace_ or everywhere. Tunisia, Morocco and of course Europe are suspected as the most likely sites for the settlement of ASHER. The Caucasus Mountains in eastern Europe is as likely a place as any for the location of ASHER. Some scholars think the Sefardic Jews are Asherites, though the Sefardim, like all Jews, claim descent from the tribe of JUDAH.
ROCHEL HOLZKENNER: Asher’s daughters were renowned for being lovely and refined, which made them most appealing to the family of priests. These women would best understand and support the priest’s work, since they mirrored the core nature of his responsibilities.
Although the priests came from the tribe of Levi, since Asher’s daughters married priests, his grandchildren were eligible for—and eventually served in—the position of high priest.

MICHELLE PAGUIO
JEWISH TREATS: The Midrash (Genesis Rabbah 71:10) teaches that Asher was so prosperous in his business undertakings that he never needed to stay in an inn (i.e. that he did not have to travel to find financial success).
DEREK ANTHONY STUDIO
Oscar Azarcón Solís: I am issuing for Catholics a dispensation from the obligation to attend Mass on Sunday, and teachers in our Catholic schools will provide their students remote instruction rather than onsite.
I know how painful it is for us to be deprived of public worship, especially of the Holy Eucharist, but this is a time when we Catholics must look beyond ourselves. I ask for your understanding and for you to broaden your perspective of the whole issue.
Although we do not at this time publicly celebrate the Mass, we can still encounter Christ in our lives. I encourage you to create an environment of dialogue with our Lord. Perhaps this is a time God has given us to sit down, to reflect, to pray and establish a deeper communion with the Lord.
While we cannot gather together in a worship space, we can still partake of a spiritual communion by watching the celebration of the Holy Mass on television or on social media, through our diocesan website or on YouTube.
WARREN WILHELM JUNIOR: I want to say to all those who are preparing for the potential of religious services, if you go to your synagogue, if you go to your church, and attempt to hold services after having been told so often not to, our enforcement agents will have no choice but to shut down those services.
CHRISTOPHER ALTIERI: Propaganda, more than any other dicastery, should be able to do things, and quickly. Getting resources to the people who need them is vital. In order to do that, the head office needs to dispose of significant resources with pretty much absolute autonomy.
CHRISTOPHER ALTIERI: Adding to the complexity of Propaganda’s mission profile and portfolio is the fact that much of the world that received the Gospel in the earliest centuries of Christianity has once again become mission territory.
CHRISTOPHER ALTIERI: Cardinal Tagle will want to get to know his people, and acquire a feel for the lay of the curial land, with a view to shaping the new order when the paper reform is given effect.

RAYMOND DE SOUZA: “The incredible thing is the invitation to trust the Government,” Joseph Zen said. “Is information on recent Oppression measures missing from our superiors in the Vatican?”
Those superiors would be Pietro Parolin, secretary of state, and Fernando Filoni, Luis Antonio Gokim Tagle’s predecessor, whom Joseph accuses of badly advising Jorge Mario Bergoglio.
Tagle, who was appointed on the Feast of Immaculate Conception, will arrive in Rome in these weeks. The China file will be waiting on his desk.
JORGE MARIO BERGOGLIO: The laity can proclaim God’s word, teach, organize communities, celebrate certain sacraments, seek different ways to express popular devotion and develop the multitude of gifts that the Spirit pours out in their midst. This is why it is important to determine what is most specific to a priest, what cannot be delegated. For this reason, only the priest can say: “I absolve you from your sins.” That is his great power, a power that can only be received in the sacrament of Holy Orders.
WIKIPEDIA: Aggadah literature regarding Elijah's origin: (1) he belonged to the tribe of Gad, (2) he was a priest.

Syncretizing Joseph's Asceticism with Jewish Political Law
WIKIPEDIA: Also the name [Khan] is claimed to be related to the Hebrew name Cohen or Kohen.
UNKNOWN: As Pusthuns are from the children of ishaq, there is an element of relation between the Jewish surname Kahn or cohen. Khan is mainly used by the Pushtuns.
SILLY POINT: Khan is probably the most common last name in Pakistan (and among Indian muslims).I have read that Genghis Khan and his mongol (mughal) dynasty of kings who ruled India are responsible for it.I have also read that some pashtuns claim that it originated from the Jewish last name Cohn/Cohen, adding to the theories that pathans are descendant of a lost tribe of Isreal.
LAPARWAH: I think the name has it's roots in Jewish culture.
THE KHAN LIFESTYLE
KHAN GENEALOGY: In the Jewish cemetery of La Tablada, Buenos Aires, is buried some people with this surname [Daniel]. There are jewish families in Argentina with surname KHAN [Sebastian]
EFRAIM PALVANOV: Zilpah went on to have one more child, Asher. The Arizal says that this name (אשר) is an anagram of rosh (ראש), “head”, since this time Jacob was in his right mind and had the correct intentions.

TIMOTHY DALRYMPLE: I wonder if we have too many court prophets in an era when wilderness prophets are needed.
LUIS ANTONIO GOKIM TAGLE: We advise priests not to accept invitations to celebrate Mass at political events and campaigns. The Eucharist is the source and sign of unity. Its celebration cannot be seen as favoring or endorsing particular political candidates, organizations or parties. It is best to avoid appearing in public political sorties and campaigns, while not discouraging politicians and candidates from seeking genuine spiritual counsel. This instance should be done in utmost privacy.

ADAM CLARKE: Double honor – Διπλης τιμης. Almost every critic of note allows that τιμη here signifies reward, stipend, wages. Let him have a double or a larger salary who rules well; and why? Because in the discharge of his office he must be at expense, in proportion to his diligence, in visiting and relieving the sick, in lodging and providing for strangers; in a word, in his being given to hospitality, which was required of every bishop or presbyter.
GEORGE HAYDOCK: 1Ti 5:17-18 The priests, or ancient ministers, (i.e. bishops, priests, &c.) deserve a double honour; i.e. to be more liberally supplied and maintained by the flock, especially when they labour in preaching the word.
JOHN GILL: see Rev_18:6 and is an allusion to the firstborn among the Jews, who was to have a double portion of his father’s goods, Deu_21:17 and so may here signify, that the ministers of the Gospel ought not to have a short and scanty, but a large and honourable maintenance.
JEWISH VIRTUAL LIBRARY: there are three messianic figures which correspond to the three main functions of the ideal Jewish state, in which kingdom, priesthood, and prophecy shall exist (see I Macc. 14:41).
ALBERT BAUMGARTEN: I think that this notion that Jesus was the Resurrected John originated in the circles of John the Baptist
ROBERT M. PRICE: There are several New Testament passages which over the years have struck me as being pregnant with implications far beyond those scholars usually reckon with. One such belief was that Jesus was the resurrected John the Baptist. It is remarkable enough to know that some believed John had been resurrected; but what are the implications of an early belief that John rose from the dead and then became known as Jesus? There are individuals, parties, sects, communities of faith among Mark's contemporaries who view Jesus as the eschatological Elijah, anticipating someone else as messiah, or else in lieu of a messiah.
"The Name above all names" implies that Jesus absorbs Believers into Himself, as well as their prophetic assumptions.
Clifford Fabro Rivera: Okay.
Phoenix Micah Khan accepted Jesus as his God, Lord, and Savior, Tonight. I witnessed him nodding in agreement to Pastor Sam Abad's three questions as an invitation to Embody Salvation. Samson Abad is an Ordained Baptist Pastor of International Christian Fellowship. The footage is clearer on the Facebook Live footage.
CHURCH OF THE GREAT GOD: By the time His ministry commences at the age of thirty (Luke 3:23), He is no novice, but a fully mature, sober-minded, qualified leader. Half a year earlier, another thirty-year-old man had suddenly appeared out of the wilderness of Judea in the area of the Jordan River, preaching a fiery message of repentance and baptizing "for the remission of sins" (Luke 3:3). It is probably in the fall of that year that Jesus journeys from Nazareth to the Jordan to be baptized by John. It appears that He inaugurated His public ministry at Nazareth on a Sabbath day, reading aloud the portion of Isaiah 61:1-2, a well-known Messianic prophecy of His work to Israel.
DANIEL BLACK: By custom, rabbis were not regarded as mature enough to begin their public ministry until age 30.
This custom was suggested by the law of Moses, which stipulated that priests could not begin their public ministry in full until they were 30 years old (Num. 4:2-3, 22-23, 29-30).
EDWARD L. BROMFIELD: although Asher’s sons had no direct claim to the priesthood, Asher’s daughters would marry high priests, thus making some of Asher’s descendents high priests. The point in all this is that Anna, may have been the wife of a former priest who had officiated the office of high priest. She departed not from the Temple during the times of prayer, just as is said of the sons of Aaron (Leviticus 10:7). This would have been especially interesting to Theophilus, who, I have argued, was the officiating high priest at the time when Luke wrote his Gospel narrative. In other words, her testimony would have carried weight with Theophilus.
He is a microcosm of Abba Father.
She is a carbon copy of Mother Mary.

Joseph Gleason: Abortion supporters can consider themselves excommunicated. I am a priest, and I do not give holy communion to people who are "pro-choice". If a person believes it is acceptable for a mother to kill her unborn baby, then that person has no place at the Lord's Table. During the years that I have been an Orthodox priest, I have been quite clear about this.
Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
