MOSHIACH'S MEAL
Shabbat, April 14
7:30 PM
at the home of Rabbi & Mrs. Lifshitz
2809 W. Gavin St., Boise, ID 83703
The last day of Passover ("Acharon Shel Pesach") is particularly associated with Moshiach and the future redemption. The Haftarah (reading from the Prophets) for this day is from Isaiah 11, which describes the promised future era of universal peace and divine perfection. Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov instituted the custom of partaking of a "Moshiach's meal" on the afternoon of the last day of Passover; in addition to the matzah eaten at "Moshiach's meal", the Rebbes of Chabad added the custom of drinking four cups of wine, as in the seder held on Passover's first days.
All are invited. No need to reserve, just come and enjoy.
YIZKOR Memorial Services for the deceased will be held on Shabbat, April 14 at the Chabad Jewish Center at approximately 11:45 AM (Morning Services begin at 10:00 AM).
