Rain for a Blessing: What Do We Plant First? | Parshat Noach
The Torah calls it geshem, rain, and then mabul, flood. Same water, same heavens. What changed?
Last night Israel began asking for rain, and in this week’s Fellowship, Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel take you from the vineyards of Judea into Parshat Noach. Jeremy shares the midrash of the flask of oil that survived the flood, and what it teaches about Ein Od Milvado, that there is nothing but Hashem. Ari looks at Noach the comforter, the courage it takes to leave the ark, and the question facing Israel and each of us: do we plant a vineyard of forgetting, or faith, Torah, children, and hope?
Along the way: the Noahide covenant and the rainbow, the beauty of Yefet in the tents of Shem (with a violin from Germany), Babel vs. the Beit Midrash, and big news about the Judean Academy going live every week.
🌿 Join the Fellowship Every Sunday, believers from Israel, America, Germany, Australia, and beyond open the Torah together, ask the hard questions, and pray for one another by name. You don’t need to be a scholar, speak Hebrew, or be Jewish. You only need a sincere desire to seek Hashem.

JCAP (the Jerusalem Center for Applied Policy) researches, advances policies and advocates for Jerusalem as Israel's sovereign and indivisible capital- and more. Founder and president Chaim Silberstein speaks with Eve Harow about little known issues that have dangerous ramifications. For example, the Arab population of the city now stands at 40%. How can Jerusalem be reconfigured and built up as to minimize the potential of a ‘democratic’ coup? Erdogan of Turkey, with Qatari complicity, is building a Sunni ring around Israel whose goal is to anoint him as Caliphate of an Empire with Jerusalem at the center. Iran and its proxies remain a major nuclear threat to the West. With France burning, JCAP’s global diplomatic efforts are becoming increasingly critical to educate allies that Israel’s enemies are theirs as well. Their research provides valuable insights into what’s coming next and how to avoid the consequences of inaction.
