Leviticus 16:29, 31

Delve into the depth of Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). Over 4 days, explore the ritual of sacrifice and discover how the Messiah, Jesus, perfectly fulfilled the need for atonement. This plan invites you to rest in Christ's finished work, to intercede for the Jewish people, and to live with the assurance of a sacrifice that was made once and for all.

We all need encouragement, and Scripture shows us how Jesus modeled this gift everywhere He went. This makes the gift of prophetic encouragement a necessary gift for today. First Corinthians 14 tells us it’s to encourage, comfort, and strengthen those who receive it—and it’s for everyone! It’s a gift that can change the world and atmosphere around us, one encouraging word at a time.

This plan is intended as a guide to discovering the message of Hebrews for yourself! Grab a notebook to jot down your thoughts as you are led through a process of: (1) observing the text of Hebrews; (2) interpreting the original message to its first readers; and (3) applying the letter’s timeless truths to your life today.

The High Holy Days are the most widely observed Jewish holidays, beginning with Rosh Hashanah , the Jewish New Year, and ending ten days later with Yom Kippur , the Day of Atonement. During this time, Jews around the world examine their lives and seek forgiveness for the coming year. Challenge yourself to do the same through Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein’s insightful reflections.
