ZoreaYahu
Verse of the Day

Bamidbar 15:14–16 (Numbers)

And when a Gar dwells with you, or whoever is among you throughout your generations, and makes an offering by fire, an aroma accepted before Yahuah, as you do, so shall he do. For the Qahal, one Khukah shall be for you and for the Gar who dwells with you, a Khukah for ʿUlam throughout your generations. As you are, so shall the Gar be before Yahuah. One Turah and one Mishpat shall be for you and for the Gar who dwells with you.
