(LEADER BEGINS - AS SOON AS MUSIC STOPS...) LEADER: Baruch Atah YHVH, Elohaenu Melech ha-olam, she-he-cheynu, v'keey'manu, v'higee'anu la-z'man ha-zeh. Blessed art Thou, YHVH our-God, King of the universe, Who has kept us in life and persevered us and enabled us to reach this time. As the bride circles the wedding canopy seven times; we're reminded that Elohim created everything through His Word in six days; and on the Seventh, the Shabbat, He rested. So the woman was brought to the man on the 6th day: and they were to dwell together on the Shabbat, for all eternity, in love. So today YHVH, in His will, brings a couple together; and if they both dwell in Yeshua The Word of God - they will dwell in a Shabbat rest with Him forever. Blessed art Thou, YHVH our God, King of the universe, Who formed man from the dust of the earth and brought forth to him a woman made out of his side to be a helpmate. HaShem, blessed be He, who creates groom and bride, love and shalom, joy and gladness, mercy and compassion. He commands to be fruitful and multiply; He strengthens the husband to walk as a priest before Him; He enables the wife as a fruitful vine; and blesses them with children to raise up in His ways. Blessed art Thou, YHVH our God, Who gives joy to the groom and the bride. May there soon be heard in the streets of Yerushalayim the sound of the footsteps of Messiah, the sounds of joy and gladness, and the sounds of the wedding celebration. (KIDDUSH) FRIEND OF GROOM: (POURS WINE AND HANDS TO HUSBAND.) LEADER: WILL ALL PLEASE RISE. HUSBAND: Blessed art Thou YHVH our God King of the universe, Who creates the fruit of the vine.

LEADER: May Elohim bless this couple as they come to re-affirm their vows and re-dedicate their marriage anew before the Father, in the Presence of The Holy Spirit, in the Name of Yeshua HaMashiach; Amaine. {______ & ______}: Elohim/God in His Holy Scriptures has given commandments to remember and perform in your lives and marriage. When Yeshua, was asked what is the first and greatest commandment, He responded from this passage in Tanakh - {the Older Covenant}.... "Hear O Israel, YHVH our God, YHVH He is One; and you shall love YHVH your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. ..." Loving Elohim/God with your whole self; let your course in life be to always... "...seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." The second commandment, Messiah told us, that is like unto the first is this... "Love thy neighbor as thyself." Scripture tells wives to: "...love their husbands..."; and to: "...submit yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord" And to husbands it says: "...love your wives, even as Messiah also loved the Congregation, and gave Himself for it" Nevertheless, one is not to use authority as a means of oppression, for in the same place in Scripture we are told... "Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God" - For: "...neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord." And: "...Love is patient, (and) is kind; love does not envy; love is not boastful, and is not arrogant; does not behave rudely, does not seek it's own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails ..." And again to both of you G*d says in His Word... "... Let these matters that I command you today be upon your heart. Teach them diligently to your children and speak of them while you sit in your home, while you walk on the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. Bind them as a sign upon your arm and let them be a sign between your eyes. And write them on the doorposts of your house and upon your gates." Also concerning both of you, on love for your children... "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." And to you fathers... "Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the fear and admonition of the Lord." And to mothers the Bible says for... "...women to be sober minded, to love their husbands, to love their children, (To be) discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the Word of God be not blasphemed." HUSBAND & WIFE: (LIGHT CENTER CANDLE.) LEADER: "... For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they two shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are not more two, but one flesh. Therefore what Elohim/God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." LEADER: {____}/(HUSBAND): Do you acknowledge in front of Elohim/God and these witnesses, mindful of the Torah delivered to Moshe, the Prophets and Writings of Tanakh, and the Word of Yeshua Messiah as delivered in the New Covenant to you who Believe; to love honor cherish and respect {_____} your wife; and in so doing to re-affirm your love for her? HUSBAND: Yes; Ani l'dodi v'dodi lee. (HUSBAND GIVES WIFE HER RING) LEADER: {_____}/(WIFE): Do you acknowledge in front of Elohim/God and these witnesses, mindful of the Torah delivered to Moshe, the Prophets and Writings of Tanakh, and the Word of Yeshua Messiah as delivered in the New Covenant to you who Believe; to love honor cherish and obey {_____} your husband; and in so doing to re-affirm your love for him?
