The Torah can...

    On "Judges" and "Judging others" (Deuteronomy 16-21)

    (17:14) talks about “setting a king over thee” It was not Adonai’s perfect will that Israel would have kings, as He already knew what the outcome would be. You could probably count on one hand the righteous kings of Israel; David, Josiah, and Hezekiah, the rest were perverted and evil (perhaps...

    The Blessing or the Curse! Our choice! (A look at Deuteronomy 11:26-16:17)

    There are two kinds of circumcision. One of the flesh, when a boy-child is born, on the 8th day. Many families practice that, while others don't. Today it is more of a health practice, to maintain cleanliness in that area. The other is what Moses said; "being circumcised in the heart" having...
