Yom Teruah 1 Rosh Hashana:

Genesis 21:1-34, Numbers 29:1-6, 1 Samuel 1.,2:1-10.

Genesis 21:1-34.

1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Isaac Is Born. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

YHWH visited Sarah as he had said, and YHWH did to Sarah as he had spoken.
2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which ELOHIM had spoken to him.
3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as ELOHIM had commanded him.
5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.
6 Sarah said, “ELOHIM has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me.”
7 She said, “Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.”

8 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Hagar and Ishmael Depart. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, “Cast out this handmaid and her son! For the son of this handmaid will not be heir with my son, Isaac.”
11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight on account of his son.
12 ELOHIM said to Abraham, “Don’t let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your handmaid. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For from Isaac will your seed be called.
13 I will also make a nation of the son of the handmaid, because he is your seed.”
14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15 The water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, “Don’t let me see the death of the child.” She sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.
17 ELOHIM heard the voice of the boy. The angel of ELOHIM called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, “What ails you, Hagar? Don’t be afraid. For ELOHIM has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him in your hand. For I will make him a great nation.”
19 ELOHIM opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink.
20 ELOHIM was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.
21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.

22 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. A Covenant with Abimelech. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “ELOHIM is with you in all that you do.
23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by ELOHIM that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner.”
24 Abraham said, “I will swear.”
25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
26 Abimelech said, “I don’t know who has done this thing. You didn’t tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today.”
27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.
28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
29 Abimelech said to Abraham, “What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?”
30 He said, “You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.”
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there.
32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of YHWH, the Everlasting ELOHIM!
34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.

Numbers 29:1-6.

1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Offerings at the Feast of Trumpets. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

“‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing of shofars to you.
2 You shall offer a burnt offering for a pleasant aroma to YHWH: one young bull, one ram, seven male lambs a year old without blemish;
3 and their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil, three tenth parts for the bull, two tenth parts for the ram,
4 and one tenth part for every lamb of the seven lambs;
5 and one male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for you;
6 besides the burnt offering of the new moon, and the meal offering of it, and the continual burnt offering and the meal offering of it, and their drink offerings, according to their ordinance, for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to YHWH!

1 Samuel 1.,2:1-10.

1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. The Family of Elkanah. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\. 1The First Book of Samuel!

Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim Zophim, of the hill country of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:
2 and he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
3 This man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice to YHWH of Hosts in Shiloh. The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to YHWH, were there.
4 When the day came that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:
5 but to Hannah he gave a double portion; for he loved Hannah, but YHWH had shut up her womb.
6 Her rival provoked her severely, to make her fret, because YHWH had shut up her womb.
7 As he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of YHWH, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and didn’t eat.

8 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Hannah's Vow. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

Elkanah her husband said to her, “Hannah, why do you weep? Why don’t you eat? Why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?”
9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest was sitting on his seat by the doorpost of the temple of YHWH!
10 She was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to YHWH, and wept bitterly.
11 She vowed a vow, and said, “YHWH of Hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your handmaid, and remember me, and not forget your handmaid, but will give to your handmaid a boy, then I will give him to YHWH all the days of his life, and no razor shall come on his head.”
12 It happened, as she continued praying before YHWH, that Eli saw her mouth.
13 Now Hannah spoke in her heart. Only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.
14 Eli said to her, “How long will you be drunken? Put away your wine from you.”
15 Hannah answered, “No, my master, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I poured out my soul before YHWH!
16 Don’t count your handmaid for a wicked woman; for I have been speaking out of the abundance of my complaint and my provocation.”
17 Then Eli answered, “Go in peace; and may the ELOHIM of Israel grant your petition that you have asked of him.”
18 She said, “Let your handmaid find favor in your sight.” So the woman went her way, and ate; and her facial expression wasn’t sad any more.

19 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Samuel Is Born and Dedicated. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

They rose up in the morning early, and worshiped before YHWH, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and YHWH remembered her.
20 It happened, when the time had come, that Hannah conceived, and bore a son; and she named him Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked him of YHWH!”
21 The man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer to YHWH the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.
22 But Hannah didn’t go up; for she said to her husband, “Not until the child is weaned; then I will bring him, that he may appear before YHWH, and stay there forever.”
23 Elkanah her husband said to her, “Do what seems good to you. Wait until you have weaned him; only may YHWH establish his word.” So the woman waited and nursed her son, until she weaned him.
24 When she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bulls, and one efah of meal, and a bottle of wine, and brought him to YHWH’s house in Shiloh. The child was young.
25 They killed the bull, and brought the child to Eli.
26 She said, “Oh, my master, as your soul lives, my master, I am the woman who stood by you here, praying to YHWH!
27 For this child I prayed; and YHWH has given me my petition which I asked of him.
28 Therefore also I have granted him to YHWH! As long as he lives he is granted to YHWH!” He worshiped YHWH there.

1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Hannah's Prayer. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

Hannah prayed, and said: “My heart exults in YHWH! My horn is exalted in YHWH! My mouth is enlarged over my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.
2 There is no one as holy as YHWH, For there is no one besides you, nor is there any rock like our ELOHIM!
3 “Talk no more so exceeding proudly. Don’t let arrogance come out of your mouth, For YHWH is EL of knowledge. By him actions are weighed.
4 “The bows of the mighty men are broken. Those who stumbled are armed with strength.
5 Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread. Those who were hungry are satisfied. Yes, the barren has borne seven. She who has many children languishes.
6 “YHWH kills, and makes alive. He brings down to Sheol, and brings up.
7 YHWH makes poor, and makes rich. He brings low, he also lifts up.
8 He raises up the poor out of the dust. He lifts up the needy from the dunghill, To make them sit with princes, and inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are YHWH’s. He has set the world on them.
9 He will keep the feet of his holy ones, but the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness; for no man shall prevail by strength.
10 Those who strive with YHWH shall be broken to pieces. He will thunder against them in the sky. “YHWH will judge the ends of the earth. He will give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.”
