Before Torah Reading

Matthew 5:17­-20

Do not think that I came to dismiss the Torah or the Prophets. I have not come to dismiss, but to carry out. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one smallest letter or one stroke shall pass away from the Torah, until everything happens. Therefore, anyone who dismisses one of these small mitzvoth (Commandments), and thus teach the sons of men to do so, will be called little in the Kingdom of Heaven; but those who do and teach them shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.

When Removing Torah From Ark

When the Ark set out, Mosha would say: Arise, O AdonYah, and Your adversaries will be scattered, and Your enemies will flee before You. For from Zion shall go forth the Torah, and the Word of Adon­Yah from Jerusalem. Blessed is He who in His holiness gave Torah to His people Israel.

The Torah which Moshe commanded us is the heritage of congregation of Ya’aqub. (Kiss the Torah)

THE BOOK OF MATTHEW

CHAPTER 26:13- 28

13 Truly I say to you, That wherever this my gospel shall be proclaimed, in all the

world, this thing that she has done shall be told for a memorial of her.

14 Then one of the twelve, named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests,

15 and said to them: What will you give me, if I will deliver him

to you?

And they

promised him

thirty pieces of silver.

16 And from

that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

17 And on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, and

said to him: Where will you have us prepare for you a place to eat the Passover?

18 And he said to them: Go into the city, to such a m

an, and say to him: Our Rabbi says,

My time is arriving: I will keep the Passover with you my disciples

19 And his disciples did as Jesus directed them, and made ready the Passover.

20 And when it was evening, he reclined with his twelve disciples.

21 And as they were eating, he said: Truly I say to you, That one of you will betray me.

22 And it troubled them

very much. And they began each one of them

24 And the Son of

man goes, as it is written of

him: but woe to that man, by whom

the

Son of man is betrayed. It would have been better for that man, if he had not been born.

25 Judas the betrayer answered and said: Rabbi, is it I?

Jesus said to him: You have

said.

26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it; and gave to his

disciples, and said: Take, eat; this is my body.

27 And he took the cup, and offered thanks and gave to them, saying: Take, drink of this

all of you.

28 This is my blood of the new covenant, which, in behalf of many, is shed for the

remission of sins.

Syriac Peshitto Matthew ch 26 Authorized use by +Mar Eshwan, Bishop

Gospel of Thomas v. 20-9

20) The disciples said to Jesus, “Tell us what the Kingdom of
Heaven is like.”
He said to them, “It is like a mustard seed, the smallest of
all seeds. But when it falls on tilled soil, it produces a great
plant and becomes a shelter for birds of the sky.”

21) Mary said to Jesus, “Whom are Your disciples like?”
He said, “They are like children who have settled in a field
which is not theirs. When the owners of the field come, they will
say, ‘Let us have back our field.’ They (will) undress in their
presence in order to let them have back their field and give it
back to them. Therefore I say to you, if the owner of a house
knows that the thief is coming, he will begin his vigil before he
comes and will not let him into his house of his domain to carry
away his goods. You, then, be on your guard against the world.
Arm yourselves with great strength lest the robbers find a way to
come to you, for the difficulty which you expect will (surely)
materialize. Let there be among you a man of understanding. When
the grain ripened, he came quickly with his sickle in his hand
and reaped it. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”

22) Jesus saw infants being suckled. He said to His disciples,
“These infants being suckled are like those who enter the
Kingdom.”
They said to Him, “Shall we then, as children, enter the
Kingdom?”
Jesus said to them, “When you make the two one, and when you
make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside,
and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the
female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the
female female; and when you fashion eyes in the place of an eye,
and a hand in place of a hand, and a foot in place of a foot, and
a likeness in place of a likeness; then will you enter [the
Kingdom].”

23) Jesus said, “I shall choose you, one out of a thousand, and
two out of ten thousand, and they shall stand as a single one.”

24) His disciples said to Him, “Show us the place where You are,
since it is necessary for us to seek it.”
He said to them, “Whoever has ears, let him hear. There is
light within a man of light, and he (or “it”) lights up the whole
world. If he (or “it”) does not shine, he (or “it”) is darkness.”

25) Jesus said, “Love your brother like your soul, guard him
like the pupil of your eye.”

26) Jesus said, “You see the mote in your brothers eye, but you
do not see the beam in your own eye. When you cast the beam out
of your own eye, then you will see clearly to cast the mote from
your brother’s eye.”

27) “If you do not fast as regards the world, you
will not find the Kingdom. If you do not observe the Sabbath as a
Sabbath, you will not see the Father.”

28) Jesus said, “I took my place in the midst of the world, and
I appeared to them in the flesh. I found all of them intoxicated;
I found none of them thirsty. And My soul became afflicted for
the sons of men, because they are blind in their hearts and do
not have sight; for empty they came into the world, and empty too
they seek to leave the world. But for the moment they are
intoxicated. When they shake off their wine, then they will
repent.”

29) Jesus said, “If the flesh came into being because of spirit,
it is a wonder. But if spirit came into being because of the
body, it is a wonder of wonders. Indeed, I am amazed at how this
great wealth has made its home in this poverty.”

Ode 23

Ode Twenty Three 1 I poured out praise to the Lord, because I am His own.

2 And I will recite His holy ode, because my heart is with Him.

3 For His harp is in my hand, and the odes of His rest shall not be silent.

4 I will call unto Him with all my heart, I will praise and exalt Him with all my members.

5 For from the East and unto the West is His praise;

6 Also from the South and unto the North is His thanksgiving.

7 Even from the crest of the summits and unto their extremity is His perfection.

8 Who can write the odes of the Lord, or who can read them?

9 Or who can train himself for life, so that he himself may be saved?

10 Or who can press upon the Most High, so that He would recite from His mouth?

11 Who can interpret the wonders of the Lord? Though he who interprets will be destroyed, yet that which was interpreted will remain.

12 For it suffices to perceive and be satisfied, for the odists stand in serenity;

13 Like a river which has an increasingly gushing spring, and flows to the relief of them that seek it. Halleluyah.

After Torah Reading

Psalm 119:1­8

Happy are they who are upright in the way, who walk in the Torah of Adon­Yah. Happy are they who keep His testimonies, that seek Him with the whole heart. They do no unrighteousness; they walk in His way. You have ordained Your precepts, that we should observe them diligently. Oh that my ways were directed to observe Your statutes! Then I would not be ashamed, when I have given diligence unto all Your mitzvoth. I will give thanks unto You with uprightness of heart, when I learn Your righteous ordinances. I will observe Your statutes; do not utterly forsake me.

Lord Yeshua, you who were brought forth by the very hand of God the Father, made known to the Blessed Mother Maryam, by the message of the angel Gabriel — I praise you, I thank you and I honour you with all my heart. It was you who said, ‘I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me, shall not hunger; and he that believeth on me, shall never thirst.’ Grant unto the presence of the Spirit of holiness as you promised to your disciples, so that I may understand the Word of God and the Will of the Father for me. Amen.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Forehead:”May I have the mind of Mshikha”, Mouth:”May I speak pure words of Torah”, Heart:”and may my heart be sealed”, Right shoulder: “in the blood of the Lamb”& Left shoulder :” Amen. ” God is One.

Or

Forehead:”Mshikha in my mind.”, Mouth:”Torah in my mouth.”, Heart:”The blood of the Lamb in my heart.”, Right shoulder:”In Yeshua’s Name.” & Left Shoulder:”Amen.”In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. God is One.
