Korban

In Judaism, the korban (Hebrew: קָרְבָּן qorbān; also corban) is any of a variety of sacrificial offerings described and commanded in the Torah. The most common usages are animal sacrifice (zevah זֶבַח), peace offering and olah "burnt offering."

A korban was a kosher animal sacrifice, such as a bull, sheep, goat, deer or a dove that underwent shechita (Jewish ritual slaughter). Sacrifices could also consist grain, meal, wine, or incense. Offerings were often cooked and most of it eaten by the offerer, with parts given to the priests and small parts burned on the Temple mizbe'ah. Only in special cases were all of the offering given only to God, such as the case of the scapegoat.

The Hebrew Bible says that God commanded the Israelites to offer offerings and sacrifices on various altars. The sacrifices were only to be offered by the hands of the Jewish priesthood, the Kohen. Before building the Temple in Jerusalem, when the children of Israel were in the desert, sacrifices were offered only in the Tabernacle. After building the First Temple sacrifices were allowed only in the Temple in Jerusalem. After the First Temple was destroyed sacrifices was resumed in the Second Temple until it was also destroyed in 70 CE. After the destruction of the Second Temple sacrifices were prohibited because there was no longer a Temple, the only place allowed by halakha for sacrifices. Offering of sacrifices was briefly reinstated during the Jewish-Roman Wars of the 2nd century AD and was continued in certain communities thereafter.

    1001 Doses (Até Você Voltar)

    by: Carbona

    Há muito tempo ela se foi
    O motivo eu conto depois
    Falo com estranhos que cismo sei lá por que
    Por obra do destino podem saber de você
    Hoje eu canto a morte por saudade
    E todo dia a noite eu bebo até tarde
    Serão 1001 doses até você voltar
    Serão 1001 doses até você voltar
    Como todos fazem
    Agora vem você
    Cheio de teoria pra explicar o porquê
    Tem coisas, meu amigo
    Que não tem explicação
    Curiosamente são todas do coração
    Não sei por que, nem sei dizer
    Como eu insisto em te querer
    Maldito seja o dia em que eu te conheci
    A minha esperança é a certeza de que os dados
    Vão rolar e o destino vai trazer você pra mim
    Invernos vão passar, 1001 doses vou tomar
    Até o dia em que a porta abrir, eu me virar e ver você
