To remember is a very important institution God set forth in the Torah. To remember and recount to every generation how God delivered the Israelites from Egypt was commanded before they actually left the land of Egypt. The Lord Yeshua also instituted communion in remembrance of Himself and His redemption during the third cup of a Passover Seder (service) which was created to fulfill the command to remember God’s deliverance from Egypt.
The word remember in the Hebrew root understanding is to store in one’s memory. It conveys this thought through an interesting letter sequence.
