Bemidbar (Numbers) 7:2-3
2 Then the leaders of Israel, the heads of their fathers’ houses, who were the leaders of the tribes and over those who were numbered, made an offering.
3 And they brought their offering before Yahweh, six covered carts and twelve oxen, a cart for every two of the leaders, and for each one an ox; and they presented them before the tabernacle.

Parashat Nasso – Year 3 – Each Tribe, One Offering.

Shabbat Shalom, Nazarene family.

This week we will study the parashat Nasso, portion of year 3, where we will see how Moshe prepares the leaders and the people to consecrate the altar and present the offerings that each tribe brings with obedience and joy. We will learn about the importance of offering the best to Yahweh and how each gift, even if similar, has personal value before Him. We will also read how His presence is manifested over the Tabernacle, showing that Yahweh dwells among His people when there is order, obedience, and a sincere heart.

Bemidbar (Numbers) 7:2-3
2 Then the leaders of Israel, the heads of their fathers’ houses, who were the leaders of the tribes and over those who were numbered, made an offering.
3 And they brought their offering before Yahweh, six covered carts and twelve oxen, a cart for every two of the leaders, and for each one an ox; and they presented them before the tabernacle.

This week corresponds to the reading of the texts (in bold):

  • Bemidbar (Numbers) 4:21-5:10 / 5:11-6:27 / 7:1-89
  • Shophetim (Judges) 13 / 14 / 15
  • Yochanan (John) 11:1-27 / 11:28-44 / 11:45-57

Summary of the weekly study, Year three:

Bemidbar (Numbers) 7:1-89

These verses recount how the twelve tribes of Israel present their offerings for the dedication of the altar after Moshe finishes erecting the Tabernacle. Each tribe gives the same thing, but their individual gestures reflect unity, obedience, and gratitude toward Yahweh. This collective act shows that serving Yahweh is not about competing, but about participating together with one heart. It also highlights that His presence fills the place, confirming His acceptance. In this passage, we learn that obedience, unity, and generosity attract Yahweh’s closeness and approval.

Shophetim (Judges) 15

In these verses, we see Shimshon (Samson) returning to visit his wife, but discovering that she has been given to another man. Filled with anger, he uses an ingenious but destructive form of revenge: he sets fire to the Philistines’ fields with torches tied to foxes. This provokes a chain of retaliation between him and the Philistines. Later, Yahweh gives him strength to defeat them using only a donkey’s jawbone, defeating a thousand men. In this passage, we learn that Yahweh can use even human mistakes and anger to fulfill His purposes and show His power.

Yochanan (John) 11:45-57

In these verses, we see how many of those who witnessed Lazarus’ resurrection believe in Yeshua, while others go to tell the Perushim (Pharisees) what happened. The chief priests and the Sanhedrin meet, concerned about Yeshua’s growing influence and fearing that the people will follow him, prompting Roman intervention. Caiaphas, the Cohen Gadol (high priest), unknowingly prophesies that Yeshua would die for the nation and also for the scattered children of Yahweh. In this passage, we learn that even human plans can serve Yahweh’s perfect purpose.

Enjoy this fun activity with the whole family. Inside you will find development questions for the three weekly sections (Torah, Haftarah and Brit Chadasha). While the older ones discuss the questions and their answers, the younger ones can color the picture related to the teaching, solve a maze, find the 7 differences and much more. We encourage you to do it week by week and instill in your children the habit of studying Yahweh’s word as a family.

We hope you and especially your sons and daughters enjoy this effort. For it is through the study of the Scriptures that we can come to understand the love and care that Yahweh has always had for us. And also to perceive that He has been taking care of even the smallest detail, so that we can take care and enjoy all that He gives us. That is why it is so important that our children learn and grow up knowing that they are loved by the Creator of all that exists.

Shalom.
