Shalom, and welcome to a new year of Holy Land Moments Devotionals. This year, we’ll continue our time together studying the Psalms on Sundays and Proverbs on Fridays—two books that have brought comfort and wisdom to so many of us. But from Monday through Thursday, we’ll start a new journey through the entire Torah, from beginning to end, following the same weekly reading cycle the Jewish people have cherished for generations. Each day, we’ll open God’s Word together. We’ll step into the world of the Bible—or into moments where His people have felt His presence—and then reflect on a teaching rooted in Jewish tradition. It’s my prayer that this time will draw you closer to God, strengthen your faith, and remind you that His Word is alive and speaking to us still.

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity. — Proverbs 17:17

On Hanukkah, it is traditional to eat foods made with oil in commemoration of the miracle of the menorah. When the Jews reached the Temple, they only found one jar of olive oil, enough to keep the eternal flame of the menorah lit for one day. In faith, they lit the menorah, and miraculously, the flame lasted for eight nights until more pure oil could be found.
