(Taken from Press Release)
“Lions of Judea Motorcycle Association” a non profit, international philanthropic organization of Jewish Bikers, in coordination with the Chabad of East Boca, is sponsoring a wonderful event this Sunday February 4th, 2007 at 11:00 AM in Mizner Park , Main Parking Area.
This will involve the entire Jewish Community.
The event is internationally known as the “World Wide Wrap”. A day when every Jewish Male above the age of 13 or Bar Mitzvah, will publicly put on the Phylacteries or “Tefillin”.
Rabbi Zachery Betesh, the spiritual leader of “Lions of Judea” comments “This is an ancient yet eternal tradition incumbent upon every Jewish Male to “wrap” leather straps around their head and upper arm. Each of the straps are attached to a box with sacred scrolls in each that bind their heart and mind to the Creator of all things. It is a physical mitzvah that proclaims the joining of Divinity with Physicality, whereby it is incumbent upon us all to make a dwelling place for G-D in this physical world. We experience this on our motorcycles while we get a wonderful feeling of freedom and joy here on this earthly plane, we also ride our motorcycles to do good deeds or “Mitzvahs” that will empower and help others. We call it “Tikkun Olam”, Acts of Kindness and Goodness that help to correct the world and make it a better place.”.
Over 1500 religious centers in the United States alone, will be participating in the “World Wide Wrap” this upcoming Sunday, along with thousands of other Jewish organizations around the globe. For more information on Lions of Judea go to www.lionsofjudea.org
