Kungani amaJuda edla Ubisi kuShavuot?

Uma kunento eyodwa wonke umuntu ayaziyo ngeholide lamaJuda likaShavuot, ukuthi amaJuda adla ubisi oluningi.

Ukuthatha igxathu emuva, njengesinye sezipho ze-shalosh noma imikhosi emithathu yokuhamba ngebhayibheli, uShavuot empeleni ugubha izinto ezimbili:

Isipho seTorah eNtabeni iSinayi. Ngemuva kokuphamba eGibhithe, kusukela ngosuku lwesibili lwePhasika, iTorah iyalela ama-Israyeli ukuthi abale izinsuku ezingama-49 (uLevi 23: 15). Ngosuku lwamashumi amahlanu, ama-Israyeli kufanele agcine uShavuot.
Ukuvunwa kukakolweni. IPhasika lamaJuda kwakuyinkathi yokuvunwa kwebhali, kwalandelwa inkathi yamasonto ayisikhombisa (ehambelana nesikhathi sokubalwa kwe-omer) okwaphetha lapho kuvunwa ukolweni kuShavuot. Ngesikhathi seThempeli eNgcwele, ama-Israyeli aya eJerusalema ukuyonikela izinkwa ezimbili zesinkwa ekuvuneni kukolweni.
IShavuot yaziwa njengezinto eziningi eTorah, kungaba uMkhosi noma uMkhosi wamasonto, uMkhosi Wokuvuna noma uSuku Lwezithelo Lokuqala. Kepha ake sibuyele ku-cheesecake.

Ukucabanga komqondo ovamile owaziwayo ukuthi iningi lamaJuda lingabekezeleli i-lactose ... kungani amaJuda enza ubisi olungaka ku-Shavuot?

Umhlaba ogeleza ubisi ...

Incazelo elula kakhulu ivela kwiNgoma Yezingoma (uShir ha'Shirim) 4:11: "Uju nobisi [iTorah] lungaphansi kolimi lwakho."

Ngokufanayo, izwe lakwa-Israyeli libizwa ngokuthi "izwe eligeleza ubisi noju" kuDuteronomi 31:20.

Ngamafuphi, ubisi lusebenza njengendlela yokuphila, umthombo wokuphila noju lufanekisela ubumnandi. Ngakho-ke amaJuda emhlabeni wonke alungiselela izibiliboco ezenzelwe ubisi njenge-cheesecake, ama-blintzes nama-pancake e-cottage shizi nge-compote yezithelo.

Ntaba Yoshizi!

UShavuot ugubha isipho seTorah eNtabeni iSinayi, eyaziwa nangokuthi yiHar Gavnunim (הר גבננים), okusho ukuthi "intaba yeziqongo ezinkulu".

Igama lesiHeberu likashizi lithi gevinah (גבינה), elihlobene ne-etymologically negama elithi Gavnunim. Kulelo nothi, i-gematria (inani lezinombolo) le-gevinah ingama-70, okuhambisana nokuqonda okujwayelekile ukuthi kukhona ubuso noma izici ezingama-70 zeTorah (iBamidbar Rabbah 13:15).

Kepha ungangiphathi kabi, asikukhuthazi ukudla amashekeli angama-70 we-cheesecake amnandi nanamafutha ngumpheki wakwa-Israyeli-kwa-Yotam Ottolenghi onama-cherries nama-crumble.

Umbono kaKashrut

Kunombono wokuthi njengoba amaJuda kuphela athola iTorah eNtabeni iSinayi (isizathu esenza uShavuot kugujwe), ayengenayo imithetho yokuthi angahlaba futhi alungiselele kanjani inyama ngaphambi kwalokhu.

Ngakho-ke lapho sebethole iTorah nayo yonke imiyalo ngokubulawa kwabantu okuyisiko kanye nomthetho wokuhlukanisa "bangapheki umntwana ngobisi lwebele" (Eksodusi 34:26), babengenaso isikhathi sokulungiselela zonke izilwane nezitsha zabo, ngakho-ke badla ubisi.

Uma uzibuza ukuthi kungani bengazithathanga isikhathi sokuhlaba izilwane nokwenza izitsha zabo zisheshe, impendulo iwukuthi isambulo esiya eSinayi senzeka kuShabat, lapho lezozinqumo zingavunyelwe.

UMose indoda yobisi

Ngendlela efanayo nekaGevinah, okukhulunywe ngayo ngaphambili, kunenye futhi i-gematria ekhonjiwe njengesizathu sokusebenzisa kakhulu imikhiqizo yobisi ku-Shavuot.

I-gematria yegama lesiHeberu ngobisi, i-chalav (חלב), ingama-40, ngakho-ke isizathu esishiwo ukuthi sidla ubisi eShavuot ukukhumbula izinsuku ezingama-40 uMose azichitha eNtabeni iSinayi ethola i-Torah yonke (Duteronome 10:10).
