Rosh Hashanah<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\r\n

Looking Ahead to Newness<\/em><\/span><\/h4>\r\n
\r\n

Rosh Hashanah, “Head of the year,” is a time of celebration, both looking back and looking ahead to newness. In the Original Testament, Rosh Hashanah is the \u201cFeast of Trumpets\u201d where the shofar, or ram\u2019s horn, was blown (Lev.23-25). It is the first feast of three commanded by God in the wilderness. Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) is followed by Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles). Through each, God gives ways to enter into His presence, shows His faithfulness and prophesies what is to come.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\r\n

Last week our students in the MA in Biblical Hebrew & Translation Consulting celebrated the end of their study in Jerusalem and the new year with a special ceremony. They ate a meal with the traditional challah, apples and honey, signifying a \u201csweet\u201d new season. They sang songs, told stories, gave thanks and looked together at the journey of returning home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Rev. Siang Guan Chua, Whole Word Institute Board member, said to the student translators during the celebration:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\r\n

\u201cThis is part of His-story, God\u2019s story of redemption. And let us give thanks, because you have been given a very precious key\u2013\u00a0the ability to enter into His-story in the source language where the intimate windows of God\u2019s revelation open…We live in unprecedented times, and all over the world our lives are brutally disrupted. The world is trying to make sense of what the future will be\u2026But the promise of Jesus in Matthew 5:8 is \u2018Until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot will pass from the law until all is accomplished.\u2019\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

As we stand at the beginning of a new year, we are believing God to multiply the work of these translators and consultants and to bring about more in order to accelerate the translation of the full Bible for all languages.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n
