What do we do with Christmas?
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
As Jews we are tied to this Gentile Christmas season whether we like it or not. The ENTIRE WORLD (secular and Christian alike) pauses December 25th to recognize and celebrate the birth of a Jewish baby, the Mashiach 2,000 years ago. Such a momentous event that has changed time! Before you judge me hear me out for a moment. This time of year, I listen to the holiday channel on Sirius Radio. I lov... Read More
Testing
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
We all were stunned, shocked, and horrified by the Hamas massacre on October 7th, 2023. We will never forget the barbarity, cruelty, and savagery of what was done to our people! Yet Torah tells us to expect war. God is described as “ish milchamah”, a Man of War in Exodus 15:3, Who is with us as we fight our enemies. Deuteronomy 20:1. "When you go out to fight your enemies and see horses, chariots... Read More
Rabbi & Rebbetzin's Corner November 2024
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
It’s November already! For those who live north of us November marks the beginning of winter. For those of us who live here in Coastal Virginia November is a fall month of harvest, pumpkin pies, and colorful leaves. Thanksgiving this year is Thursday, November 28th, 2024. November is the 11th month of the Gregorian calendar. Its name is derived from “novem”, Latin for “nine,” an indication of its ... Read More
Adonai Rophekah
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
In the story of our Exodus from slavery in Egypt, Adonai miraculously split the Red[EC1] Sea saving Israel. Then Moses led the people into the desert, but after three days their drinking water ran out. When they finally found a water source, however, the water was bitter and undrinkable, and the people complained.Exodus 15:25. Moshe cried to ADONAI; and ADONAI showed (יָרָה yarah {yaw-raw'}: flow... Read More
Approaching God. The Meeting Place.
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
In my weekly drosh's and teachings I often mention the Temple's of God, both in Israel's history and as they relate to future events when the Kingdom of God is re-established here on the earth. This is another area where there doesn't seem to be a lot of teaching, yet it's critical in our understanding of God, our relationship with Him, and our future relationship when the New Jerusalem descends ...

Rabbi & Rebbetzin's Corner October 2024
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
Shalom and Chag Sameach (Happy Holidays)! October is here, we’re full swing into the autumn season!! October is the tenth month of the year, named after the Latin word for eight “octo” because it was the eighth month in the ancient Roman calendar. With great sadness and a heavy heart, we remember the one year anniversary of the Hamas invasion of Israel on October 7th 2023. Hamas terrorists brea... Read More
Fall Feasts (Moedim)
by Info Zion's Sake on August 14th, 2025
The seven feasts of the annual Feast Day cycle are primarily covered in Leviticus 23 and Numbers 28-29. The Spring Feast Days have been fulfilled. Yeshua was born on the First of Nisan, He was crucified on Passover, He was resurrected on the Ha Bikurim (First Fruits) offering, then we received the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) on Shavuot (Pentecost). The fall feasts have not yet been fulfilled; the... Read More
Be Bold
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
Joshua 1:2-3. Moshe my servant is dead. So now, get up and cross over this Yarden, you and all the people, to the land I am giving to them, the people of Isra'el. 3 I am giving you every place you will step on with the sole of your foot, as I said to Moshe. The beginning of Joshua marks a transition for Israel, both in leadership and in the fulfillment of Adonai’s promises to them regarding the pr... Read More
Rabbi & Rebbetzin's Corner September 2024
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
Shalom Mishpocha, Where did summer go? School is starting, hurricane season is in full swing, and though September is a transition month into fall time we still have 21 days of summer left until the Autumnal Equinox on September 22nd at 8:44 A.M. EDT-the first day of Fall. September’s name comes from the Latin word septem, meaning “seven.” This month had originally been the seventh month of the ea... Read More
Entering Faithfulness
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
There is an age old and timeless question that has been asked for millennia by those that seek and follow the God of Israel! What does God want, what is God asking of me? This question couldn’t be more prevalent as we prepare to enter into the Fall Moedim, the Fall Feasts next month. The sages throughout biblical history have pondered this question so we have examples to read. King David, a ma... Read More
Forgiveness
by Rabbi Eric Carlson on August 14th, 2025
We strive to hear God’s voice, to live in His presence. This alone can be a daunting, complex task, one that requires many actions on our part. We must be obedient and subservient to God. We must live according to His word to be sanctified, set apart for service, to worship Adonai. We must maintain holiness and purity before Him, to walk and live according to His ways. We cannot have love of this... Read More
