Rabbi Neal goes over the contents of the Ark of God which resided first within the Tabernacle, and later within the Temple which had been built by King Solomon.

Neal reminds us about the ongoing plight of the Jewish people and about God's plan to bring them back to Him. He speaks about Paul's deep driving desire to see his people saved in Romans.

Neal talks about the "Sabbath of Rememberance" and how we are called to remember Amalek and their twisted relationship with God's people, Israel.
