Parasha of the week – n.10 Miketz
Parasha Miketz n.10
Pharaoh has dreams nobody can interpret. In the first seven lean cows eat up seven fat cows and in the second seven healthy ears of corn are swallowed up by seven lean ears of corn. Joseph is called to unravel the dreams. He explains that G-d will send to the land seven years of plenty followed up by seven years of famine. Pharaoh makes Joseph vice king of Egypt in charge of growing and collecting food ahead of the hard times.
Parasha Miketz n.10
Nessuno riesce a interpretare i sogni del faraone. Nel primo sette mucche magre divorano sette mucche grasse e nel secondo sette spighe di grano piene vengono ingoiate da sette spighe esili. Joseph viene convocato per interpretare i sogni e svelarne il significato. «Il Signore» spiega «è in procinto di mandare sette anni di abbondanza seguiti da sette anni di carestia». Il faraone nomina Joseph vicerè d’Egitto in cambio dell’impegno di coltivare e raccogliere cibo come riserva in vista dei tempi difficili.
The image above, is showing the opening part of our Illustrated Torah scroll with the first 4 sidrot. This is a canvas reproduction of the opening part of our Medium size Illustrated Torah Scroll. The scroll contains all 54 sidrot of the Torah in paintings. It is used as a fundraiser (MAKES BETWEEN 75k and 145k) for communities and it costs a tiny fraction.
As you can see here in the video, this is also a great tool for Simchat Torah and the picture of 250 kids all holding the scroll up gives the chills.
I hope to have awakened your curiosity. We have to help each other in times of distress, and this is the way we can help you and you can help us.
If you are interested, let us know and I will send to you the “Real sampler” Free of Charge.
BTW, Michal is now painting an original scroll which will be ready in approximately one year.
Same paintings only originals on canvas and will be made out as a scroll.
Cordially Be’Shalom, Michal and Alon
