Influx into the Mixed City

 

Located in the territory of the Israeli tribe of Dan, Ramle is a city in the central district with 80,000 Israelis, two-thirds of whom are Jewish and one-third Arab.  It sits next to the ancient city of Lydda/Luz (Lod).

Hanukkah - Light Drives Out Darkness


Both Jews and Christians celebrate their "festivals of light" during the darkest period of the year. Sunrises are really late and sunsets occur in the late afternoon already.

Light was created during the creation story when God spoke light into being to expel the darkness (Genesis 1:1 - 5). A parallel can be found in the Gospel of John chapter 1 where the Messiah is referred to as the light of the world.

What About Israel’s Jubilee and El Nino?

Israelites are fiercely traditional.  Yet the Nation, itself, still remains Godless. This is tantamount to today’s secular America celebrating Christmas without Christ or Thanksgiving as a family banquet holiday without knowing who they’re supposed to thank for a bountiful, blessed harvest!
