Temple Institute Inaugurates Historic Registry of Biblically Eligible Kohanim

Описание: Unprecedented program will seek to identify and select kohanim (descendants of the priestly tribe of Aaron) whose status of Biblical purity enables them to attend to the preparation of the Red Heifer.

The Temple Institute announces the second stage of its monumental project to restore Biblical purity (tahara) to the world, with the initiation of a historic registration of qualified kohanim. Those kohanim whose status can be verified will be eligible to be among the first to participate in the renewal of numerous Torah commandments, including the preparation of the Red Heifer.

Male Kohanim born and residing in the Land of Israel who have exercised caution with regard to exposure to the Biblical impurity of death are eligible for inclusion in this registry. This includes those who were not born in hospital and who have not visited hospitals (unless they are certain that they remained in a state of purity throughout their visit), or cemeteries.

This week is parashat Para, marked by the reading of a special Torah portion that focuses on the precept of ritual purification through the Red Heifer. There could be no better time to begin this bold new initiative. For more information, please contact the Temple Institute at [email protected]
