Our last book has now been translated into English and Dutch now!   It is a strong prophetic message that sheds light on the rise of Islam and the solution HaShem has planned to fight it.

 We are at the dawn of the 21st century, 2,000 years after the coming of our Master Yeshua and the world is on the road to ruin. While the Church should be strong after these centuries of practice, we witness the rise of a conquering religion, entering with power in all the civilized Christian countries to subjugate and submit men and women to an iron yoke. What are the reasons for this spiritual war and why does G-d allow Islam to conquer the Western world? What are the secret agreements concluded by our governments to give access to mass immigration for Muslims in Europe and in the United States? We will try to answer these questions in part, in this study based on the sacred texts of the Word of G-d and certain Jewish sources. Buy Now

A very interesting comment from one member of the Yeshiva:
"This past weekend when I was meditating, the L-rd showed me something---not a profound revelation mind you, just a continuation of what He's been showing me concerning the House of Judah---I correlate it to 2 Corinthians 3:3 clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart. 

Judah is not just the keeper of the Oracles of G-d, they are not just leader in the things of G-d; He has made them a  "living epistle"---His book on display, so to speak. Again, Judah, the elder brother has been leading the way. This living epistle has been and continues  to be a visual, living  depiction of His eternal plan set in the midst of man for all to see.  Through obedience to the practice and keeping of the annual feasts, Shabbat, Torah, they continually and symbolically depict His redemption, death, burial, resurrection, infilling, ingathering, forgiveness, light, eternity through  openly keeping His commandments! This "epistle" has been on display for centuries, as a testimony, but sadly, man has not seen and has openly condemned, criticized, ridiculed, tried to destroy and has oft times refused to receive this wonderful display of HaShem's faithfulness. His awesome plan truly on display every day for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear and a heart to receive what has been written and given. I pray that all would see, but especially the House of Israel/Ephraim  as the tribes make their return. I thank G-d for putting on display through Judah, in the keeping of His appointed feasts, His eternal plan and that He has given me eyes to see!! "
 
You have two possibilities to study: Complete training with graduation or Personal enrichment.
The Complete training will allow those who want to teach Torah to be part of our network of Torah teachers, who desire to start a Yeshiva in their home or at their kehila. Sukkat David will offer help to those who want to initiate Torah study groups.

Take the opportunity to study Torah starting with the highly prophetic Book of Genesis. Torah is the key for the end times; everything has been written in it. We just need to dive into it and receive tremendous revelations on Yeshua and His plan for our lives.
 
From the beginning of the messianic calling of the first Patriarch, the Torah teaches us that faith is the key to salvation. Grace also has been present since the beginning.
The foundations are laid from the first Book of the Bible, to help us understand the perfect plan of salvation that G-d has for mankind. If one doesn't study the foundations of this plan a great part of the Revelation is lost, notably, the Revelation of Messiah Yeshua.
 
Receiving Him in our heart as Savior and Master is one thing, one first necessary step for our salvation, but our path doesn't stop there. After Pesach (salvation by grace), we must head to the Festival celebrated in honor of HaShem, "three days walk" after the reception of the Torah: Shavuot. Avraham saw the L-rd, and the story of his life and of his descendents reveals His Presence, even from the beginning.
 
The same way we have received the Savior in our hearts,  it is now about receiving His Torah engraved in our hearts, even as proclaimed by the prophets in Jeremiah 31:31.  True new birth takes place by the action of the Ruach HaKodesh, who circumcises our hearts to be able to walk according to the criteria of holiness of Elohim.

But in order to be able to walk in these commandements, under Yeshua's yoke, we need to know the Word. When did G-d speak, before the eyes and to the ears of all, with the sound of thunder, setting ablaze an entire mountain? The answer is obvious: the Creator of the universe came to reveal His heart at Mount Sinai, a place that didn't belong to anyone,  and that was open freely to all those who wanted to drink the waters of life.
Yeshua manifested Himself on that day at Mount Sinai, but only Moshe could see Him. Moshe's skin shone so intensely that he covered it with a veil. He shone from the initial Light of Creation: the Light of Messiah. He is the PURPOSE of the Torah; He fills us with His love and calls us to follow Him, to prepare a heavenly Bride.

He left us these words: John 5:45-47 But don't think that it is I who will be your accuser before the Father. Do you know who will accuse you? Moshe, the very one you have counted on! For if you really believed Moshe, you would believe me; because it was about me that he wrote. But if you don't believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?


Indeed, if we don't believe the Torah of Moshe, how will we believe the words of Yeshua? They are the same, only revealed to our  understanding, because the veil was lifted.
By studying the Torah, our intimate knowledge and revelation of Yeshua grows.
 
Don't stay at the stage of Pesach and salvation by grace; move on to the stage of priesthood! He is preparing the Kingdom of priests for the Glory of G-d the Father!

Now Yithro יִתְרו the priest of Midyan, Moshe's father-in-law, heard about all that God had done for Moshe and for Israel his people, how Adonai had brought Israel out of Egypt. Exodus 18:1

 
The Feast is close at hand, but first, another figure comes on the scene, one who will play a determining role in the leadership of the Jewish people in the desert: Yithro, the first official convert and Moshe's step father! 
   Now Yithro the priest of Midyan, Moshe's father-in-law, heard, vayishma וַיִּשְׁמַע about all that God had done... Exodus 18:1

This event with Yithro is directly linked to the receiving of the Torah and even bears his name. To him also was given the privilege of having his name linked with this very important Feast of G-d!

What purpose or reason would lead an important and famous priest like Yithro to come into the desert to meet the Jewish people, apart from family relationship?

Yithro, an advisor at Pharaoh's council, fled after the decision was made to persecute the Israelites.[2] Other people had heard about the bankruptcy of Egypt and the fall of Amalek but only Yithro, as a truth seeker, received a holy fear.
Not only had Yithro "heard" about the miracles and understood that the punishment of Pharaoh and Amalek's rebellion and pride was not the only purpose, but he also comprehended the love G-d had for His people Israel:
  Now Yithro, the priest of Midyan, Moshe's father-in-law, heard of all that God had done for Moshe and for Israel his people, how Adonai had brought Israel out of Egypt. Exodus 18:1

He also understood that G-d wanted to make this people His people, and it was because of this dimension of love from such a Great and All Mighty G-d that Yithro's heart was deeply touched; because of this, he will leave his high rank of priest and the entire honor that goes with it to meet the Israelites in the desert. His thirst of truth is greater than the love of glory. He is called "Moshe's step father" as being proud to belong to the House of Israel.
 
Now I know that Adonai is greater than all other gods, because he rescued those who were treated so arrogantly. Exodus 18:11
 
This humble attitude from Yithro will provoke the coming forth of Moshe and a procession of Ancients will follow this encounter: Aaron, his sons, the seventy elders and the whole people will welcome him. It is said that even the divine Presence revealed itself to honor this first official Gentile convert.

Moshe will welcome him in the study tent:
Moshe went out to meet his father-in-law, prostrated himself and kissed him. Then, after inquiring of each other's welfare, they entered the tent. Exodus 18:7

He will tell him the miracles G-d performed for them, once more drawing Yithro's heart. He will hear what Elohim אלהים  has done for His people (18:1) and then discover why Adonai  יהוה  did it (18:8) and the dimension of His abundant grace.

Elohim is the name of G-d used for the natural laws and judgment[4], what is called "the measure of judgment" the midat din and Adonai[5], the sacred four letters, is the name used to express "the measure of grace", the midat chesed.

When the nations heard that the great priest Yithro was converted and circumcised (as suggests the word vayichad, וַיִּחַדְּhe rejoiced, which root chad חד means "sharp knife"), many were impressed and left their idols.[6]
  Yithro rejoiced vayichad וַיִּחַדְּ over all the good that Adonai had done for Israel by rescuing them from the Egyptians. Exodus 18:9

Yithro received with joy the yoke of the Torah and of the circumcision because he had both heard and understood that the G-d of Israel was first and foremost a G-d of love, and as such, he also prepared himself to participate in this great Feast, this gift of love that the children of Israel were about to receive.

There was a great celebration and meal prepared, in Yithro's honor.
In the same way, I tell you, there is joy among God's angels when one sinner repents." Luke 15:10

The Word describes for us the event of Yithro's counsel to Moshe for the leading of the people. However, Tradition believes this event is not set in order in the Bible, but instead sets this occurrence after the receiving of the Ten Commandments, as well Yithro's departure for Midian which also happened after the receiving of the Torah.

Yithro, filled with wisdom, will help Moshe to do his part and the other valuable men assigned to leadership to take care of their part, in order to educate the people: for the knowledge of the L-rd to grow.

Those men were chosen by specific qualifications, the qualities of which Paul (Shaul) will also later be inspired to recommend to young Timothy, for the choosing of the elders. Moshe will have to use his prophetic gifts of discernment as suggests the word used, techezeh, the root of which also means "vision":
  But you should choose, techezeh, תֶחֱזֶה from among all the people competent men who are God-fearing, honest and incorruptible to be their leaders, in charge of thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens. Exodus 18:21..."

 Kedem' herbs are 100% natural and kosher, non tested on animals
The use of medicinal herbs of the Judaea Desert is an ancient tradition,which was well known throughout the Roman Empire and elsewhere, notably.
In the Roman Empire, the Land of Israel was a source of various medicinal and cosmetic balms. Notably, there are a particularly large number of medicinal plants in the Land of Israel, due to its geographical location in a junction of three continents, and due to a harsh desert climate in various regions, which requires plants to possess a large arsenal of compounds for self-protection and preservation. The scarcity of rain improves the quality of oil obtained from plants growing in the region.
Herbs Of Kedem was established in 1996 and focuses on 100% natural therapy products, using natural herbs, primarily from the Judaea Desert.
