About this episode
The episode explores the concept of Shmittah and God's provision as discussed in biblical texts.
When God commanded us as Israel to do a "Shmittah" or a Jubilee year (every 7 years let the land rest without being farmed for a solid year) ... God also promised to give us enough food in the sixth year for a 3 year buffer - with other sources of food promised as well. Messiah Yeshua we are told in Matthew 16 called this dynamic in "the lesson of the loaves" – and urged us to learn it, and not forget it. So - here - we ponder into this pattern to weave to deeply into our soul's expectations. Shavuah tov, and Enjoy!
