We are a community based in Woking and the surrounding area who meet weekly in groups to study scripture (Genesis to Revelation) from a Hebraic perspective and come together on Shabbat .

We follow primarily, but not exclusively, the Torah reading cycle and seek to understand and live it out.

 

People can join us either through a midweek group or on a Shabbat or both. You are welcome

Acharei Mot - Kedoshim (double portion)

אַחֲרֵי מוֹת־קְדשִׁים

Acharei Mot means "after the death," taken from the opening verse in Leviticus 16, where God speaks to Moses following the death of Aaron’s two sons.

Leviticus 16 outlines the Tabernacle ceremony for the Day of Atonement.

Leviticus 17 sets general guidelines for sacrifices and the use of the sanctuary.

Leviticus 18 details laws regarding acceptable and forbidden sexual relationships.

Kedoshim means "holy," drawn from Leviticus 19:2: "You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy."

Leviticus 19 defines a holy community through a series of specific commandments.

Leviticus 20 warns against sexual immorality and idolatry, prescribing the death penalty for certain offenses.

Together, Acharei Mot and Kedoshim form a double portion that is typically read on the same Sabbath, except during biblical leap years.
