Genesis 9:13 -New International Version-
the Jews have a saying,"till ye see the bow in its luminous colours, do
not look for the feet of the Messiah, or his coming (w).''
8And Elohim spoke unto Noach, and to his banim with him, saying,9And I, hineni, I establish My brit (covenant) with you, and with your zera after you;10And
with kol nefesh that is with you, of the bird, of the behemah, and of
every animal of ha'aretz with you; from kol yotzei hatevah (all that go out of the ark), to every creature of ha'aretz.11And I will establish My brit (covenant) with you, neither shall kol basar yikaret (be cut off, violently killed) any more by the waters of the mabbul; neither shall there be any more mabbul l'shachat (to destroy) ha'aretz.
12And Elohim said, This is the ot (sign) of the brit (covenant) which I make between Me and you and every nefesh chayyah (living creature) that is with you, for dorot olam (perpetual generations);13I do set My keshet (bow) in the anan (cloud), and it shall be for an ot brit (covenant) between Me and ha'aretz.14And it shall come to pass, when I bring an anan over ha'aretz, that the keshet be'anan (rainbow) shall be seen;15And
I will remember My brit (covenant), which is between Me and you and kol nefesh
chayyah of kol basar; and the waters shall no more become a mabbul (flood) l'shachat (to destroy) kol basar.16And
the keshet shall be in the anan; and I will look upon it, that I may
remember the brit (covenant) olam between Elohim and kol nefesh chayyah of kol
basar that is upon ha'aretz. 17And Elohim said unto Noach, This is the ot habrit, which I have established between Me and kol basar that is upon ha'aretz. Genesis 9:8-17 -Orthodox Jewish Bible- http://biblehub.com/ojb/genesis/9.htm
Orthodox Jewish Bible - Revelation 10 - 1And I saw another strong malach descending and coming down out of Shomayim, having been wrapped in an anan (cloud), and the keshet be'anan (rainbow, BERESHIS 9:16) was over his rosh (head) and the face of him was as the shemesh (sun) and the feet of him as pillars of eish (fire), [YECHEZKEL 1:28]2And he had in his hand a sefer katan (small book) which had been opened and he placed his ragel hayemanit (right foot) on the yam (sea), and the smolit (left) on ha'aretz (the earth),3And he cried with a kol gadol (loud voice) as an aryeh (lion) roars. And when he shouted, the shivat hare'amim (seven thunders) reverberated. [HOSHEA 11:10]4And when the shivat hare'amim (seven thunders) spoke, I was about to write, and I heard a kol (voice) from Shomayim, saying, Put a chotam (seal) on [the sod, the secret of] what the shivat hare'amim (seven thunders) have spoken, and seal it up, and do not write, [DANIEL 8:26; 12:4,9]5And the malach, whom I saw having taken his stand on the yam (sea) and on ha'aretz (the earth), lifted his yad yamin (right hand) to Shomayim [DEVARIM 32:40; DANIEL 12:7]6And made shevu'ah (oath) by the One who lives l'Olmei Olamim (forever and ever) whose "barah" (created)
the Shomayim and the things in it and ha'aretz and the things in it and
the yam and the things in it--that there would be no od zman (more time). [BERESHIS 14:22; SHEMOT 6:8; BAMIDBAR 14:30; TEHILLIM 115:15; 146:6]7But in the days of the sounding of the shofar by the malach hashev'i'i (the seventh angel), when he is about to blow the shofar, also then the raz (mystery) of Hashem would be brought to an end, as he proclaimed to his avadim (servants), the Nevi'im (prophets). [AMOS 3:7]
8And the kol (voice)
which I heard from Shomayim was again speaking with me and saying, Go,
take the sefer which is opened in the hand of the malach who has taken
his stand on the yam (sea) and on the ha'aretz (the earth).9And I went to the malach, telling him to give me the sefer katan (small book) and he says to me, Take and eat it, and it will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as devash (honey). [YIRMEYAH 15:16; YECHEZKEL 2:8-3:3]10And I took the sefer katan out of the hand of the malach and ate it, and it was in my mouth as sweet as devash (honey), but, when I ate, my stomach was made bitter.11And they say to me, You must speak dvarim hanevu'ah (words of prophecy) again, about haumim (peoples) and Goyim (Nations) and leshonot (tongues) and many melachim (kings).

Parallel Commentaries
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary 9:8-17
As the old world was ruined, to be a monument of justice, so this world
remains to this day a monument of mercy. But sin, that drowned the old
world, will burn this. Articles of agreement among men are sealed, that
what is promised may be the more solemn, and the doing of what is
covenanted the more sure to mutual satisfaction. The seal of this
covenant was the rainbow, which, it is likely, was seen in the clouds
before, but was never a seal of the covenant till now it was made so.
The rainbow appears when we have most reason to fear the rain
prevailing; God then shows this seal of the promise, that it shall not
prevail. The thicker the cloud, the brighter the bow in the cloud. Thus,
as threatening afflictions abound, encouraging consolations much more
abound. The rainbow is the reflection of the beams of the sun shining
upon or through the drops of rain: all the glory of the seals of the
covenant are derived from Christ, the Sun of righteousness. And he will
shed a glory on the tears of his saints. A bow speaks terror, but this
has neither string nor arrow; and a bow alone will do little hurt. It is
a bow, but it is directed upward, not toward the earth; for the seals
of the covenant were intended to comfort, not to terrify. As God looks
upon the bow, that he may remember the covenant, so should we, that we
may be mindful of the covenant with faith and thankfulness. Without
revelation this gracious assurance could not be known; and without faith
it can be of no use to us; and thus it is as to the still greater
dangers to which all are exposed, and as to the new covenant with its
blessings. Pulpit Commentary Verse 13. - I do set. Literally, I have given, or placed,
an indication that the atmospheric phenomenon referred to had already
frequently appeared (Syriac, Arabic, Aben Ezra, Chrysostom, Calvin,
Willet, Murphy, Wordsworth, Kalisch, Lange). The contrary opinion has
been maintained that it now for the first time appeared (Bush, Keil,
Delitzsch), or at least that the historian thought so (Knobel); but
unless there had been no rain, or the laws of light and the atmospheric
conditions of the earth had been different from what they are at
present, it must have been a frequent spectacle in the primeval heavens.
My bow.i.e. the rainbow, τόξον (LXX.), (cf. Ezekiel 1:28).
The ordinary rainbow consists of a series of successive zones or bands
of polarized light, forming little concentric circles in the sky, and
having a common center almost always below the horizon, and
diametrically opposite to the sun. It is produced by the refraction and
reflection of the sun's light through the spherical raindrops on which
the rays fall, and, accordingly, must always appear, with a greater or a
lesser degree of visibility, when the two material agencies come in
contact The part of the sky on which the rainbow is thrown is much more
bright within than without the bow. The outer space is dark, almost
black; and the inner space, on the contrary, melts into the violet
almost insensibly (Nichol's 'Cyclopedia of the Sciences,' art. Rainbow).
It is here styled God's bow, as being his workmanship (cf. Ecclus.
43:12), and his seal appended to his covenant (Genesis 9:17). In the cloud, עָנָןthat which veils the heavens, from a root signifying to cover (Gesenius). And it shall be for a token,לְאות = εἰςσημεῖον, (LXX.). In Greek mythology the rainbow is designated by a name (Iris) which is at least connected with εἴρω, to speak, and εἰρήνη,
peace; is represented as the daughter of Thaumas (wonder), and Electra
(brightness) the daughter of Oceanus; is assigned the office of
messenger to the king and queen of Olympus; and is depicted as set in
heaven for a sign (Homer, 'I1,' 11:27; 17:547, 548; 24:144, 159; Virgil,
AEn.,' 4:694; 5:606; Ovid, 'Met.,' 1:270; 11:585). The Persians seem to
have associated the rainbow with similar ideas. An old picture,
mentioned by Stolberg, represents a winged boy on a rainbow with an old
man kneeling in a posture, of worship. The Hindoos describe the rainbow
as a warlike weapon in the hands of Indras their god, "with
which he hurls flashing darts upon the impious giants;" but also as a
symbol of peace exhibited to man "when the combat of the heavens is
silenced." By the Chinese it is regarded as the harbinger of troubles
and misfortunes on earth, and by the old Scandinavians as a bridge
uniting earth and heaven ('Kalisch on Genesis,' pp. 223, 224).
Traditional reflections of the Biblical narrative, they do not "account
for the application in the Pentateuch of the rainbow to a very
remarkable purpose," or "explain why the New Testament represents the
rainbow as an attribute of the Divine throne," or "why angels are sent
as messengers on earth" (Kalisch); but are themselves accounted for and
explained by it. The institution of the rainbow as a sign clearly
negatives the idea (Aquinas, Cajetan) that it was originally and
naturally a sign; which, if it was, "it was a lying sign," since the
Flood came notwithstanding its prognostications (Willet). Of a covenant. "The bow in the hands of man was an instrument of battle (Genesis 48:22; Psalm 7:12; Proverbs 6:2; Zechariah 9:10); but the bow bent by the hand of God has become a symbol of peace" (Wordsworth). Between me and the earth. Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible I
do set my bow in the cloud,.... Or "I have given", or "have set it"
(p); which seems as if it was at that instant set; this is the same we
call the "rainbow": and so Horace (q) calls it "arcus pluvius": it is
called a "bow", because of its form, being a semicircle, and a
"rainbow", because it is seen in a day of rain, and is a sign of it, or
of its being quickly over, Ezekiel 1:28
and this appears in a moist dewy cloud, neither very thick nor very
thin, and is occasioned by the rays of the sun opposite to it, refracted
on it: and this God calls "his bow", not only because made by him, for,
notwithstanding the natural causes of it, the cloud and sun, the
disposition of these to produce it, such a phenomenon is of God; but
also because he appointed it to be a sign and token of his covenant with
his creatures; so the Heathen poets (r) call the rainbow the messenger
of Juno. It is a question whether there was a rainbow before the flood,
and it is not easily answered; both Jews and Christians are divided
about it; Saadiah thought there was one; but Aben Ezra disapproves of
his opinion, and thinks it was first now made. The greater part of
Christian interpreters are of the mind of Saadiah, that it was from the
beginning, the natural causes of it, the sun and cloud, being before the
flood; and that it was now after it only appointed to be a sign and
token of the covenant; but though the natural causes of it did exist
before, it does not follow, nor is it to be proved, that there was such a
disposition of them to produce such an effect; and it might be so
ordered in Providence, that there should not be any, that this might be
entirely a new thing, and so a wonderful one, as the word for "token"
(s) signifies; and the Greeks calls the rainbow the "daughter of
Thaumas" or "Wonder" (t); and be the more fit to be a sign and token of
the covenant, that God would no more destroy the earth with water; for
otherwise, if this had been what Noah and his sons had been used to see,
it can hardly be thought sufficient to take off their fears of a future
inundation, which was the end and use it was to serve, as follows: it
shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth; that is,
between God and the creatures of the earth; or of a promise that God
would no more destroy the earth, and cut off the creatures in it by a
flood; for though it is a bow, yet without arrows, and is not turned
downwards towards the earth, but upwards towards heaven, and so is a
token of mercy and kindness, and not of wrath and anger. (p)

Pulpit Commentary Verse 14. - And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth. Literally, in my clouding a cloud, i.e. gathering clouds, which naturally signify store of rain (1 Kings 18:44, 45). Clouds are often used to denote afflictions and dangers (cf. Ezekiel 30:3, 18; Ezekiel 32:7; Ezekiel 34:12; Joel 2:2). That the bow shall be seen in the cloud. Literally, and the bow is seen,
which it always is when the sun's rays fall upon it, if the spectator's
back is towards the light, and his face towards the cloud. Thus at the
moment when danger seems to threaten most, the many-colored arch arrests
the gaze. Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible And
it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth,.... Or
"cloud a cloud" (u), cause the clouds to gather thick in the heavens,
and to hang over the earth ready to pour down great quantities of water;
by reason of which the inhabitants might dread another flood coming
upon them: wherefore, in order to dissipate such fears, it shall be so
ordered: that the bow shall be seen in
the cloud; after it has pretty much discharged itself; for the rainbow
is always in a thin, not a thick cloud; after the heavy showers are
fallen from the thick clouds, and a small thin one remains, then the
rainbow is seen in it; not always, but very frequently, and when the sun
and clouds are in a proper position: and this is often so ordered, to
put men in mind of this covenant, and to divest them of, or prevent
their fears of the world being drowned by a flood; for when they see
this, it is a sure sign the rain is going off, since the cloud is
thinned, or otherwise the rainbow could not appear: and a most glorious
and beautiful sight it is, having such a variety of colours in it, and
in such a position and form. Some think that it serves both to put in
mind of the destruction of the old world by water, through its watery
colours, and of the present world by fire, through its fiery ones.
Others make the three predominant colours to denote the three
dispensations before the law, under the law, and under the Gospel:
rather they may signify the various providences of God, which all work
together for the good of his people; however, whenever this bow is seen,
it puts in mind of the covenant of preservation made with all the
creatures, and the firmness, stability, and duration of it; and is by
some considered as an emblem of the covenant of grace, from Isaiah 54:9
which is of God's making, as this bow is; is a reverberation of Christ
the sun of righteousness, the sum and substance of the covenant;
consists of various blessings and promises of grace; is expressive of
mercy and peace, and is a security from everlasting destruction: or
rather it may be thought to be an emblem of Christ himself, who was seen
by John clothed with a cloud, and a rainbow on his head, Revelation 10:1
this being a wonderful thing, as Christ is wonderful in his person,
office, and grace; and as it has in it a variety of beautiful colours,
it may represent Christ, who is full of grace and truth, and fairer than
the children of men; and may be considered as a symbol of peace and
reconciliation by him, whom God looks unto, and remembers the covenant
of his grace he has made with him and his chosen ones in him; and who is
the rainbow round about the throne of God, and the way of access unto
it; Revelation 4:3

Hanukkah ends with the eighth day today at morning's light (darkness ends). Remember eight is the sacred walk of holiness, the path to trusting love (eternity symbol) and it's embracing for each other. We shine our inner light, to find the river of fire, within each of us, we stand here (the ninth direction), between from rainbow colors outside and four rainbow colors inside.
Religions all over the the world share part of the story of Oneness, Jews happen to be the oldest of the flesh, where intelligence leads on the red road. They go towards heaven to shine like a star in heaven to find the blue road, returning once more into the bliss of faithful devotion. We must remember, all the world carries stories of the Oneness. As the ordained people (Jews on the eastern shore of the horizon), who teach us God's laws as we walk upon the earthly world. However there is only one true law, LOVE. This law rules and reigns above all others. Through the trusting of one's heart, we remember our soul within, that guides us, remembering that we are all relatives of the deep blue of heavenly stars. This is written in the prayer cloth with the blue strand of the fringes at each corner.
The festival of lights help us to remember miracles can live in each day if we have faith and trust in forgiveness and have hope for tomorrows dreaming. We leap into evolution with our hearts seeking brotherhood and only through the actions that gift to us miracles, can we find the true path of our hearts.
Today we pray and offer each relative praise in the hopes they find the blue road, the star that shines, the soul within once again. Here inside of you, lies the perfect revelation, eternal knowledge through the songs, we find our way, into everlasting life. Now more than ever it's imperative we attend to the salvation of our hopes and dreams to endure and find our path to eternal life, we know as our souls.
The blue road of the heavenly song leads us towards the perfect unity of waters (blue road of the soul) and fires (red road of the flesh). Here the sacred mix becomes smoke, clouds and an atmospheric embrace, we call home, the blue of Mother Earth, where the lights bring to us a garden of paradise. Here is the TREE of LIFE that extends upwards and downwards to bind us together.
Let us sing this day, forever pave the way to eternal love and guidance that can bring, to us hope and dreams that fill us with everything, it's the place we need to know our waves. Help our souls relieve, the song that helps us grieve and bring our tears to shine upon the world. And through our love this day, it will pave the way into ever more, the song of what we need.
We bow down to say, we love you all the ways, to shine of light from within that guides the plates, the platters to/of yesterday, they roll around to say, we return to lift the waves again. Let us move down the path, to where it's dark at last, the blue road of heavenly stars that shine from within.
White Buffalo Calf Woman sings (christal child, peace) and Holiness David Running Eagle Shooting Star shines, love that binds (lavender child, holiness). House of David, where the Beloved Children find passageway through the house of winds!
ps. On Christmas day, we had gas to run our generator for four hours, but it ran for 10 hours. We thank Great Spirit Father River of the Blue for his great miracle. Each day, we shared a miracle. But with so little, we have so much and LOVE is what we beget, abundance of overflowing LOVE.
Last day of Chanukah
The last day of Chanukah marks the end of Chanukah, also known as Hanukkah or Festival of Lights. Chanukah is an eight-day Jewish observance that remembers the Jewish people's struggle for religious freedom.
The last day of Chanukah is the eighth day of Chanukah. It is known as Zose Chanukah, Zos Chanukah or Zot Chanukah. It marks the day on which the great miracle of oil occurred, according to Jewish belief. It is a particularly special day because it encapsulates all of Chanukah.
Jewish communities worldwide celebrate Chanukah between the 25th day of the month of Kislev to the second day of the month of Tevet in the Hebrew calendar. Many Jewish people lighting a special Hanukkah menorah, a candelabrum with holders for eight candles, one for each day of celebration, plus a ninth, the shammash or “server”, used to light the others during Chanukah. One candle is lit on the first night, two on the second, three on the third, through to the eighth night when all are lit.
A special prayer is recited during the lighting and while the candles burn it is a time for songs and games, including the four-sided toy called dreidel. Other customs include gift-giving, especially to children, and decorating the home.
Public life
The last day of Chanukah is not a public holiday in Israel but it is the school holiday period. This event is also not a public holiday in countries such as Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. Some Jewish schools in these countries and other countries have a vacation period that coincides with Chanukah.
Background
Chanukah commemorates the successful rebellion of the Jewish people against the Syrians in the Maccabean War of 162 BCE, but the military associations of this festival are played down. What is really being celebrated is the survival of Judaism. After the Jewish people's victory they ritually cleansed and rededicated the Temple, then re-lit the menorah or “perpetual lamp”; hence one of the other names for this celebration, the Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah means “dedication” in Hebrew).
The story is told that although there was only enough consecrated oil to keep the lamp burning for one day and it would take eight days to get more, the small bottle of oil miraculously lasted for the entire eight days. It is for this reason that Hanukkah is also known as the Feast of Lights.
Symbols
The eight-branched Chanukah menorah, or candle holder, is an important element that symbolizes the tradition of Chanukah. It relates well with why the holiday is called “the festival of lights”. The menorah is lit from the left side to the right and people say blessings when the menorah is lit. There are many different styles of the menorah – in many cases the ninth holder, known as the shammash (helper candle), is in the middle or to the left side.
The dreidel is a popular toy symbolizing the Chanukah period. It is a spinning top with a different Hebrew letter inscribed in each of its four sides – the four letters form an acronym meaning “a great miracle happened here”. Some popular songs associated with Chanukah in English-speaking countries include “Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel” and “Chanukah, Oh Chanukah”. Some songs in Israel include "Hanukkiah Li Yesh" ("I Have a Hanukkah Menora"), "Kad Katan" ("A Small Jug"), and "S'vivon Sov Sov Sov" ("Dreidel, Spin and Spin"). http://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/jewish/last-day-chanukah
Text: "And they celebrated the rededication of the altar for eight days. And offered burnt offerings with joy and offered a sacrifice of deliverance and praise."
The Apocrypha, 1st Book of Macabees
The Jewish Festival of Hanukkah comes so near Christmas that people want to merge its meaning with the various festivals of light that occur around the same time in the Christian calendar. Notwithstanding the wish for ecumenism, it would be a mistake for us to do so. Truth to tell, the sun does sink lower in the skies each day as we approach the Solstice; it does prompt people to find ways to hope for the sun to return to its zenith. But to mix Hanukkah's celebration with the Solstice, Christmas or Ramadan would be to miss its true meaning.
Hanukkah is a celebration of religious freedom. It commemorates the renewal and the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem in the year 165 B.C.E.,. three years to the day after it had been profaned by the Syrian King, Antiochus Epiphanes. (IV) His purpose in desecrating that sacred altar was to insult the Jews and drive them into submission.
Let me relate the story again. Antiochus was known to his friends as "Zeus Manifest". He was a dictator. He wanted to bring Greek values to the Jews. He had already accomplished this in other parts of the world. Although he did not care about the religious practices of his peoples, he did insist that they worship the Greek god, Zeus. For the Jewish people he added other demands.
After waging war and finally conquering Jerusalem, Antiochus took firm control. First he sold the position of High Priest of the Temple to the highest bidder. When riots broke out the army was brought in to kill and plunder. The King then made the temple a place no Jew would enter by making it permissable for worshipers to sacrifice swine in praise of the Greek god, Zeus. They were also forced to eat that same meat forbidden by the Jewish Torah. Finally, Jews were forbidden to practice of circumcizing male children.
When the members of the Jewish community condemned the King's action as an abomination, he OUTLAWED the practice of Judaism, a crime punishable by death.
This is what happens when a tyrant does what he or she wishes. It's gone on down through history and it's not nice. On with our story.
In a town near Jerusalem, a Syrian officer demanded that the Jews there make the mandated sacrifice to Zeus. A village priest named Mattathais refused. He killed the officer and fled to the hills. Mattathais died an outcast in the same year of 165 B.C. But his son, Judas Maccabeus, (Who was nicknamed "The Hammer") gathered a band of rebels and began what history has come to call "The Maccabean Revolt". He defeated the general appointed by Antiochus and forced a treaty of peace. Then, on the 25th day of the month of Kislev (Which we know as the month of December), Judas rebuilt the altar of the Temple. He restored it with a Rededication and a Feast of Lights which we call......Hanukkah.
Ever since that time Jews the world over remember that occasion as a reminder of the privilege of being able to practice religious freedom. The Menorah (which holds the candles) is a symbol of the kindling of the light for eight days. And, as we have heard, the ninth candle commemorates the miracle that at the time that the celebration of eight days was ordered, only enough oil was on hand to burn for one night. Miraculously the oil lasted the entire eight days of commemoration, thus the eight blue and white candles.
Now here's what Paul Harvey calls "the rest of the story". The last days of the festival have special importance. In a book titled Jewish Days, Francine Klagsbrun gives us an insight that is a wonderful theme. Hanukkah came to be a festival that was of special importance to women.
Some Jews dedicate the eighth day of Hanukkah to a figure in the story named Judith. Legend has it that she had more courage than all the men in her town. An Apocryphal story apparently written during the Maccabean era - but set in a time centuries earlier - involved the Assyrians. King Nebuchadnezzar sent his general to conquer Judea.
Of course the Jews resisted. So he lays seige to the town. And just when the people are about to surrender, Judith steps forward. She goes to the enemy camp. There she beguiles the general into believing that she can pray to Yahweh and help the general and his troops to subdue Judea. She stays three days, leaving each night to pray. This makes the guards accustomed to her departures.
On the fourth day, the general invites her to a banquet. Since he plans to seduce her, he dismisses his servants. When he is finally drunk and asleep, Judith takes his sword . . . and hacks off his head. With the head in a sack she returns to her home and when the Assyrian army finds its general decapitated, it flees in confusion. Israel wins a great victory and Judith leads the people in dancing and singing praise to Yahweh for defeating the enemy "at the hands of a woman." (Judith 16:6)
The second admirable Biblical theme is about Hannah, daughter of Mattathias and sister of Maccabeus. The Syrians decreed that all Jewish brides must spend their wedding nights with local rulers who raped and shamed them. In rebellion at her wedding feast, Hannah stripped naked before all the guests. When her brother sought to kill her for her wantonness, she demanded that they take up arms against the Syrians to save the honor of all Jewish women. According to the legend, it was Hannah's action which sparked the Maccabean Revolt.
Finally, there is the story of Miriam. It is hard to believe that she is remembered because it was Miriam who encouraged her seven sons to die for their faith. Seven sons. But die they did when they refused to eat pork. Antiochus's men tortured and killed each one of them for this. It is written that when the youngest son's turn came, the King urged his mother, Miriam, to persuade the boy to save himself. Instead she pressed him to follow his brothers' example. Kissing him she whispered, "Say to Father Abraham, `Do not pride yourself on having built an altar and offered up your son Isaac. Our mother built seven altars and offered up seven sons in one day. Yours was only a test but hers was real." With her sons gone, Miriam died, as well. In the Apocryphal Book of Maccabees she is blessed as one "who deserves to be remembered with special honor."
These are only a few themes that are linked with the season of Hanukkah. We need to remember that the faith journey that brought liberal religion to the fore had its roots not only in the Protestant Christian tradition, but in the Judaic tradition, too. So when we celebrate and guard religious freedom we need to remember how Hanukkah serves to remind us of others who fought for it two thousand years before us. So, too, with our sisters and brothers of the Counter-Reformation which began in the 1500's.
So you see, it is not difficult to appreciate some of the more positive elements emerging out of the Judaic tradition. Art, music, poetry, literature, drama and sacrifice were themes lived again and again by our spiritual neighbors of the past.
Today we are free to doubt; to question; to argue; to resist. We recognize no ecclesiastical hierarchy that tells us to do or believe this or that regarding our religious faith. And if we look into Scripture we can find similar parallels written in an effort to describe and to understand the religious aspect of the human condition.
There is no doubt that the troubled times we are in give us no measure of quiet when the Middle East seethes with hatred, vengeance and retaliation. It is not unlike the time when sincere but misguided Christians went to the Holy Land during the Crusades in order to rid the world of the pestilence that threatened Christianity's authority. The politics of the day notwithstanding, I would urge you to accentuate the positive about the season of Hanukkah. Permit it to be another way of remembering how our spiritual mothers and fathers won religious freedom in New England in that time of theocratic autocracy in this free land. Let us remember. Let us remember - with gratitude.
I would close this venture with some lines of poetry written by my friend and colleague, the Rev. Anthony F. Perrino:
I am the Hanukkah-Christmas Spirit
That comes with the month of December:
A winter-solstice spell, perhaps,
When people forget to remember--
The drab realities of fact,
The cherished hurt of ancient wrongs,
The lonely comfort of being deaf
To human sighs and angels' songs.
Suddenly, they lose their minds
To heart's demands and beauty's grace;
And deeds extravagant with love
Give glory to the commonplace.
"When we cease walking in labor, we toil not, but live in joy, the divine presence of heaven, the soul, within does shine over living rivers of water.

Oh Holy Day, the Joy that over comes me. I am in faithful watchfulness for you. I gift my heart to know the glory of you. The relative shore, where all is in sacred bloom. My soul does yearn. I come to learn. Do tell me your story, we did concern. It's a show, above the righteous glow, because tomorrow, will bring to us many shores (each being). All who do glow (rainbow clan). My soul does flow, towards the heart, where love lives a spark. My holy day in you, I share with the mighty sacred blue (road of heaven, the heart).
I give my heart, don't impart from me (don't walk away from my heart). I give to you, the soul inside of me that blooms. I'm here don't count on me too soon (I will do my best, not always like a perfect nest), but I will bring my heart, it's in bloom. I will be there to guide to you. I will be there to smile for you. I will gift to you my hands, to bring the holy stand. I will gift my soul complete. I will fill my heart so we can sleep. Knowing we did greet, the souls who did look out over easy street, to tell them glory means, it's God's throne (Kingdom of Oneness, the Rainbow Clan, the royal descendants of Kings, kinsmen). The place we promised, inside your heart. I look there always, do you live there too. My relative blue. My soul guides me to you. Oh holy day. Oh holy holy day. My crows (represents the darkness of heaven's prodding and embrace, literally outside my widow pane) sing for you. Don't you hear them in the blue. The song of heavenly form flies close to you.
Our souls do guide the way, from blue to red this day. To bring the heart of a throne to a sacred true, the rainbow flow in you. Come bring the lights, guide them from all plight. Give them a soul to count and bloom, show them they are worth, and count too. Give your soul a right, to forgive each and every night, towards heaven, we do loom, to bring the sacred bloom.
Crows sing to us: They want you to know, how great is your show. You try to do your best now forgive your sacred nest. It's time to bring peace, inside your heart you do keep. My soul is alive, when you are here to thrive. My awakening call. I bring you down to fall. Down on your sacred knees, pray God will be pleased. Tell all you do your fire, your sacred living desire, the rainbow call you keep is a place where you live your treats (within heaven, we turn lessons into treasures, with love and song provides my measure). Come and fly with me tonight. I will bribe the highest calling (how sweet, but only true love, will enter the kingdom of God). I will show you the way in (here, the measure is shared). I will show the darkness thin (create a veil for you). We will be one fluid light, you and I, will shine so bright (turn darkness to light, a light from within). Let the soul walk on in (reflection of light, inner vibrancy). Let us be so ever bold, not so thin (together a rope, bonded together in heart, the blue of heaven in you and me, as we fly with our souls free). Bring in trust from everywhere. Bring in your heart if you dare. Tell all the soldiers we are here. And it's time to rise in the wind. Come my beloved clan, let us in. Listen to us, when we call (the animals are our soul elders, listen with your heart). Tell the children how to fall (get down on your knees and pray). Bless the hall of consciousness, to begin a heavenly path.

Beloved Cup of God and Relatives on the Hoops,
Thank you for sharing your heart with us. Your dream last night,"Last night I was dreaming to be in a synagogue and praying and singing with other Jews. It was like a party and big fun to praise the creator - everybody was very colorful."
Lost in transfer a video in the last posting about forgiveness http://houseofthebeloved.blogspot.com/2010/09/giving-to-receive-joy-give-alms-for.html and what is the meaning of it, by Rabbi Svirsky on this Holy of Holy Days, the Great Day of Awe, where the heart leaps with joy. It's a wonderful explanation of this wonderful day, Yom Kippur. Please I hope everyone starts here in their viewing, to understand forgiveness towards great joy.
[The Day of Atonement for Jews, Yom Kippur has begun with its opening Kol Nidrei (or Kol Nidre) “annulment of vows” on Friday evening. Yom Kippur is observed on the tenth day of Tishrei, a first month of the civil year and continues till the next nightfall. This year, the Yom Kippur falls on Saturday, 18th September. Kol Nidre is opening prayer and name for the evening service that symbols the opening of Yom Kippur. Yom Kippur is Jews’ holy day of the year.
Yom Kippur is observed as the Jews’ holiest day. This holy day is a 25-hour period of fasting (for those physically able), intensive prayer, and spending most of the day in Jewish congregation or temple services. On this day, the people excludes eating, drinking, bathing, cosmetics, wearing leather (including shoes), and conjugal relations. The fasting starts a before sundown, and ends after nightfall the following day. Yom Kippur finished the annual period identified as the High Holy Days or Days of Awe. Thank you Jewish News123]

Cup of God, I prefer this video where Carlebach sings the Koi Nidreibecause my heart did swell with love. Perry Como did not put feelings in my heart, even though Holiness David did marvel about his voice, with feelings of swelling in his heart, with his portray of Koi Nidrei (below).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY6i6SobW6M&NR=1
Sow Perry Como must be from an earthly perspective, bringing earth towards paradise. He did not live with heaven in his own heart, because he did not practice faithful tradition of blessings in his life, even is he was Jewish, just like many of us today. It's important to pray and give your praise away. Carlebach brings the essence of glory into this song, Kol Nidrei. Here Heaven is exclaiming the raptures of love. The opening prayer, Kol Nidre means, "All Vows" (words to song in English below and Cup of God sent Hebrew above).
["Kol Nidre," with its marvelously plaintive and touching melody, and, gradually increasing in volume from pianissimo to fortissimo, repeats three times the following words", says Joseph Jacobs. Note: The chazan (cantor) recites Kol Nidrei aloud three times, each time louder and louder than before, and the congregation recites along in an undertone.]
"All vows , obligations, oaths, and anathemas, whether called '?onam,' '?onas,' or by any other name, which we may vow, or swear, or pledge, or whereby we may be bound, from this Day of Atonement until the next (whose happy coming we await), we do repent.
May they be deemed absolved, forgiven, annulled, and void, and made of no effect; they shall not bind us nor have power over us. The vows shall not be reckoned vows; the obligations shall not be obligatory; nor the oaths be oaths."
The leader and the congregation then say together: (Num. xv. 26).
"And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that sojourneth among them, seeing all the people were in ignorance" This also is repeated three times. The ?azzan then closes with the benediction, :
"Blessed art thou, O Lord our God, King of the Universe, who hast preserved us and hast brought us to enjoy this season."
"The Kol Nidre is the holiest Jewish prayer and is recited several times on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. It means "all vows" and is a flat statement that no promise of any kind will be kept for the coming year. It is also sung by the cantor in synagogue, accompanied on the violin and it says this." says JB Campbell 11-30-2003 JBC@wealthkeeper.net:
"All vows, obligations, oaths or anathemas, pledges of all names, which we have vowed, sworn, devoted, or bound ourselves to, from this day of atonement, until the next day of atonement (whose arrival we hope for in happiness) we repent, aforehand, of them all, they shall all be deemed absolved, forgiven, annulled, void and made of no effect; they shall not be binding, nor have any power; the vows shall not be reckoned as vows, the obligations shall not be obligatory, nor the oaths considered as oaths." We must understand, the point of view of the Oneness of God from the eastern shore, where ordained people, the 12 tribes of Israel stand. Here we enter into heavenly space. We have walked our way from the earthly world (red earthly road), journeyed over torrential waters (blue heavenly road) and have found that the place of promise, lies inside the heart, where heaven is gifted birth in our souls. With the awakening of mankind around the world, evolution brings us to the perspective of Oneness. However even in this rainbow clan, we all have a perspective of the same center, where dreams live, inside gray (grandmother) space. We just stand in different places. This becomes our viewpoint. Here lies heaven, in our dreams, by trusting our blessed souls. We are given birth, and lifted up by the chains of bondage, by learning that forgiveness is known, in our hearts as we walk and talk with others. This is not always the body's knowing, the light, but always the soul's knowing of the heart, the darkness within, our heaven.
JB Campbell is angry, with a whole lot of other members of the human race, why the Jewish nation can commit crime after crime and simply absolve themselves. This is a way of living (blue road of heavenly soul), rather than a day to day event (red road of earthly flesh). When we forgive ourselves, we are able to allow our souls to be set free. The heavenly soul travels the blue road, the law of song and talk (ordained eastern shore, 12 Houses of Jacob, representing rainbow colors, rainbow mother of heaven, talkers of the blue road of heaven, eldest physical bodies). The earthly flesh travels the red road, the law of love and walk (ordained western shore, are the Sioux, spiritual embrace of this world and the rainbow clan, walkers of the red road of earth, eldest soul bodies). The unity of the soul and flesh, releases us from bondage. This occurs when we forgive all things every day, to bring in the new, to play, through prayer and song. This is innately known by the Jewish Nation. But is not known, through their physical actions of daily occurrences. We all reach to be the perfect we are within. This song tells us, that we are forgiven. That we need to forgive. And when we unite the blue road of heaven, our soul and dark, with the red road of earth, our flesh and light, then dreams can come true. We are freedom, without bondage or chained to our sins. We are born within, we awake with joy. We share our heart full of heaven, in an earthly domain, we attempt to bring in paradise.
But JB Campbell knows, like many of us, that this fine line, between the middle, the golden path of dreams, between the blue and red roads. This means, we must cleanse our holy temple, the rainbow colors, through fire ceremonies to bless the light (book of life), that contains our soul and all the darkness we conceal in our lives, because each of us, cannot read the book of life clearly, except for crystal persons. However, because of evolution and the return of heaven to earthly domain, we all will be able to read more clearly the book of life in everyone. We are folding the light and darkness. We are becoming greatness. We have skills and sacred holy powers, when we fight with love.
In the days ahead, many will loose their way, because they could stay hidden from the truth of this world. But because we will all be given sight or vision of the heart, the blue road of heaven, tool of our soul, the song, will be able to look into the dark space of others, where they did hide for eons previously. This is the importance of learning to forgive and walking sacred in forgiveness. This is the holy communion of freedom, when forgiveness is a given. Now how do we unite the path, together?
Look here, this line "pledges of all names" or Jews who use no name, but rather "whether called '?onam,' '?onas,' or by any other name". This is for the returning soul within. We are God, the oneness, called the Rainbow Clan. We are all Godly. And G_d, had no heaven upon earth. Now heaven returns G_ah_d, the utterance of heavenly transmission, our voice and song, will lead us the way....to heaven on earth, scribed in your book of life. Walk sacred, talk sacred, it's evolution and it's home. Two more years and it's done (dark and light will fold), heaven and earth arrive home. Law of love demands, we care, forgive everyday and be free, to know God's love, each other, like pure hearts, we shall rule and reign, with heaven above, down upon this world, paradise in bloom!
"Blessed art thou, O Lord our God, King of the Universe, who hast preserved us and hast brought us to enjoy this season."
"Artist Rendition"
[During the Avinu Malkenu, the Ark is opened, and at the end of the prayer, the Ark is closed. In the Sephardic tradition, it is recited on Shabbat, and the Ark is not opened. Throughout the Ten Days of Repentance, five lines of Avinu Malkeinu that refer to various heavenly books include the word Kotveinu ("Inscribe us"). During Ne'ila, this is replaced with Chotmeinu ("Seal us"). This reflects the belief that on Rosh Hashanah all is written and revealed and on Yom Kippur all decrees for the coming year are sealed.]
This prayer Avinu Malkeinu, "Father Our King" is often omitted if Yom Kippur falls on the Sabbath like today, Saturday.
However, as heaven (darkness) greets us (light), we make way for the Kingdom of Glory ruled by the Kings of Heaven and Earth. We give praise to the Great Spirits who lead us. And give homage to the Great Spirit Father who has led the army of G_ah_d homeward and we made it to the top of the hill. Now in evolution, we move from the light into the shadows (down the hill or wave of light), and our souls begin to spiral towards the center of darkness, we give homage to the Great Spirit Mother, who embraces the Warrior.
Rainbow Warriors of Prophecy take my hand, let us greet the promised land.
Avinu Malkeinu "Our Father Our King" (our Great Spirit Father, our Kingdom), Hear our prayer
We have sinned before thee, Have compassion upon us and upon our children, Help us bring an end to pestilence, war, and famine, Cause all hate and oppression to vanish from the earth
Inscribe us for blessing in the book of life
Let the new year be a good year for us
Barbra Streisand sings traditional music Avinu Malkeinu. Part of the service for Yom Kippur.
"Sung during Rosh Ha' Shanah (the Jewish New Year), "Avinu Malkeinu" ("Our Father, Our King") is a supplication to God to treat us with kindness and generosity, even when we haven't always lived up to His ideals for us. The melody I sing here is so beautiful, surely the hand of God touched the composer."Barbara Streisand
Let us sing praise upon the highest. Let us motion in time, with love. Let us walk with our neighbor with glad tidings. Let us talk with our children in song. And expound, that we are the dream unfolding, and we are kings (kingsmen, kinsmen, we are related) again, royal blue (blood), the hearts of the (true) blue, heaven's bond, the loyal in you. We are oneness, one clan, rainbow colors. We are walking talking to be free. We are dreams that come from heaven to shed a blanket of love!
Comfort in the Wind, our Sunshine Glory Shines says with her heart, "Carry me home, darkness embrace, the dreams unfold, a human face!"
You are the promise land, when a smile comes across your face (love is known in your heart), bless and pray, and all pain will be just a trace, as forgiveness shows you the way.Rainbow Warriors of Prophecy will make a stand, law of love, shall be the reprimand.
Come my Angels, let's walk towards the promise land, right into your heart, my talk does start, to reverberate all your worth. Let us sing together, let us be one hand (knowing peace).

1. THE KOL NIDRE
By : Joseph Jacobs Max Schloessinger Cyrus Adler Francis L. Cohen
Prayer recited in the synagogue at the beginning of the evening service on the Day of Atonement; the name is taken from the opening words. The "Kol Nidre" has had a very eventful history, both in itself and in its influence on the legal status of the Jews.
Introduced into the liturgy despite the opposition of rabbinic authorities, repeatedly attacked in the course of time by many halakists, and in the nineteenth century expunged from the prayer-book by many communities of western Europe, it has often been employed by Christians to support their assertion that the oath of a Jew can not be trusted.
Form of Prayer.
Before sunset on the eve of the Day of Atonement, when the congregation has gathered in the synagogue, the Ark is opened and two rabbis, or two leading men in the community, take from it two Torah-scrolls. Then they take their places, one on each side of the ?azzan, and the three recite in concert a formula beginning with the words, which runs as follows:
"In the tribunal of heaven and the tribunal of earth, by the permission of God -- blessed be He -- and by the permission of this holy congregation, we hold it lawful to pray with the transgressors."
Thereupon the cantor chants the Aramaic prayer beginning with the words "Kol Nidre," with its marvelously plaintive and touching melody, and, gradually increasing in volume from pianissimo to fortissimo, repeats three times the following words:
"All vows , obligations, oaths, and anathemas, whether called '?onam,' '?onas,' or by any other name, which we may vow, or swear, or pledge, or whereby we may be bound, from this Day of Atonement until the next (whose happy coming we await), we do repent.
May they be deemed absolved, forgiven, annulled, and void, and made of no effect; they shall not bind us nor have power over us. The vows shall not be reckoned vows; the obligations shall not be obligatory; nor the oaths be oaths."
The leader and the congregation then say together: (Num. xv. 26).
"And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that sojourneth among them, seeing all the people were in ignorance"
This also is repeated three times. The ?azzan then closes with the benediction, :
"Blessed art thou, O Lord our God, King of the Universe, who hast preserved us and hast brought us to enjoy this season."
In many congregations Num. xiv. 19-20 is recited before this benediction. After it the Torah-scrolls are replaced, and the customary evening service begins. Thank you http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/view.jsp?artid=340&letter=K
2. Avinu Malkeinu (Hebrew: אָבִינוּ מַלְכֵּנוּ) (lit. "Our Father, Our King") is a Jewish prayer recited during Jewish services on Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and certain fast days.
Each line of the prayer begins with the words "Avinu Malkeinu" and is then followed by varying phrases, mostly supplicatory. There is often a slow, chanting, repetitive aspect to the melody to represent the pious pleading within the prayer. There are 54 such verses. Verses 15-23 are recited responsively, first by the leader and then repeated by the congregation. The reader also reads the last verse allowed (and sometimes it is sung by the entire congregation).
On most days when Avinu Malkeinu is recited, it is included during Shacharit and Mincha on that day. It is omitted on Shabbat (except Yom Kippur at Ne'ila) and at Mincha on Fridays. On Erev Yom Kippur it is not recited at Mincha but some congregations do recite it in the morning when it falls on Friday. On Yom Kippur, Avinu Malkeinu is also recited during Maariv and Ne'ila, except when Yom Kippur falls on Shabbat in the Ashkenazi tradition, in which case Avinu Malkeinu is recited during Ne'ila only. During the Avinu Malkenu, the Ark is opened, and at the end of the prayer, the Ark is closed. In the Sephardic tradition, it is recited on Shabbat, and the Ark is not opened.
Throughout the Ten Days of Repentance, five lines of Avinu Malkeinu that refer to various heavenly books include the word Kotveinu ("Inscribe us"). During Ne'ila, this is replaced with Chotmeinu ("Seal us"). This reflects the belief that on Rosh Hashanah all is written and revealed and on Yom Kippur all decrees for the coming year are sealed. When recited on Fast Days (other than the Fast of Gedaliah which falls in the days of Penitence) the phrase Barech Aleinu ("bless us") in the 4th verse is recited instead of the usual Chadesh Aleinu ("renew us"), and "Zochreinu" (remember us) is recited in verses 19-23 in place of "Kotveinu B'Sefer" (inscribe us in the book). Fast Days on which it is not recited (by any custom) are Tisha B'Av, the afternoon of the Fast of Esther except when it is brought forward (thus not falling immediately before Purim) and when the 10th of Tevet falls on a Friday it is omitted at Mincha (as is usual on a Friday).
Sephardic Jews do not recite Avinu Malkeinu on fast days (except those that fall in the days of Penitence). Instead, a series of Selichot prayers specific to the day are recited.
In the interests of gender neutrality, the UK Liberal Jewish prayer-book for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur (Machzor Ruach Chadashah) translates the epithet as "Our Creator, Our Sovereign". It also contains a contemporary prayer based on Avinu Malkeinu in which the feminine noun Shekhinah is featured.[1] Thank you http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avinu_Malkeinu.

Blessings from your Magenta Warrior,
Halls of Consciousness
Joy is here to stay ♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸♥ and sacred is the way, to heaven's bounty where we come from, we return to this Heavenly Sun. Shine on me today, let my heart shower miracles away.
Free my soul and walk with me, to the shore of divinity. Gather and set my soul on fire, the waking call of G_ah_d's (utterance of heavenly transmission) desire. Let us shine as family. Let us set our souls free!
White Buffalo Calf Woman your Twin Deer Mother Sings. I bring pass over to you, my heart does long to be bleu (freedom), the heart of always comes true, when faith is written on you. But so many, they don't really, think that G_ah_d (utterance of heavenly transmission) will bring, the heart that rings. And we are satisfied, to long for better skies, rather than trusting all the ones who came before us. It's time of prophecy, the living of all the devoted seas (blue tzitzit), and what could bring us home, we don't look at this loom (weaving of light and dark). It's a covering, the prayer cloth that helps us discover, that we are housing a truth, and it's called our soul. There is wisdom if we trust our heart's breath, the sanctity of loving all that is truth. But who can you depend on, when so many think they know lawns (green grass the home of paradise) and you don't know which way to turn?
There's only one place, that speaks volumes, it's the prayer you turn to, that leads you true. Look at your heart inside, not at your pride outside, but bring the soul, that knows, the way to go. And when we follow you and me, and gift all, to the leaves (tree of life, our relatives who we share life with), then we know where we must go, on it's course of time. Let's not be blind any more, but instead let's find vision of a stare, where our hearts show us the way, with good old fashion love in the air. And it's where we need find, the song that leads us this time, to unite our hearts, to fight for broken hearts.
There is wind in the clouds. There is flowing of the blood, but there is not wisdom that grows, with all the lies. Instead, let's hold each others hands, and feed all who do command, the soul of wisdom, the soul of pride (faith and humbleness), that offers us the ride. It's heaven inside. It's the grains of delight (abundance for all). It's where G_ad_d promises us paradise. Give your embrace to the world. Feed the homeless and the full. Open your hearts and give it all away. Brotherhood comes with a price, and we'd better think twice, because only love will allow us to survive. We are a hide (holy temple which resides a soul), the Rainbow Tribe.
Sing Prayer Before the Meeting to Unite Hearts, to Resolve Conflicts!
