    The sound of the shofar is not ancient history to Jews. “We of the Jewish faith are convinced of the truth of the prophecy of Moses, not simply because of his wonders, but because we, like him, witnessed the theophany on Mount Sinai.” [1] Like we Christians can close our eyes and witness the suffering of Jesus on the cross, they were alive with their ancestors three thousand years ago and saw the sky split and heard the sound of the shofar. The words of Moses are still alive in their hearts.“On

    Part of the daily morning and evening prayer in Judaism is this: “He sows tzedakot and causes yeshu’ot to sprout.” Translation of this is challenging. Both primary words have multiple layers of meaning and numerous connotations. Tzedakot is usually translated “charity” but the root of the word also means “righteousness.” It basically means “doing the next right thing.”Yeshu’ot is in the plural and normally translated “deliverances.” It forms the foundation of the name we know as Jesus.
