    The Call of Abraham (Genesis 12) Is God calling you too?

    PARASHAH: “Lech Lecha” (go, go for yourself) GENESIS 12:1-17:27 “Now YHVH (God) said unto Abram: Get thee out of thy country and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will show thee” These are the opening words that YHVH speaks unto Abram. A Midrash interprets this...

    "Noah the Righteous" in a generation of pure evil; Gen 6:9-11:32

    Sadly Yes, many don't care about the Torah nor spiritual things, yet many do care. In the future, God can see that ALL will accept Messiah Yeshua, someday, in the near or distant future.

    OK, I added the English words that are the equivalent to the Hebrew. I forget some times...

    OK, I added the English words that are the equivalent to the Hebrew. I forget some times, thanks for reminding me.

    Isaiah 54:1-55:5 and 1 Peter 3:18-22

    ISAIAH 54:1-55:5 The Children of Yisrael are compared to the “sands of the sea” the “dust of the earth” and the “Stars of heaven” The prophet Yeshayahu (Isaiah) in these verses is comforting Israel that they will be blessed, with descendants, even though at the time they might be going...

    "Noah the Righteous" in a generation of pure evil; Gen 6:9-11:32

    Yes indeed, they have taken something beautiful and made it their "emblem of identity"

    "Noah the Righteous" in a generation of pure evil; Gen 6:9-11:32

    The word "righteous" means "in right standing before God. It doesn't mean "sinless perfection" because no one is without sin, we all have the sin nature. Noah proved that when he got drunk! Noah was "righteous" because he chose to walk with God and live a godly lifestyle before a wicked...

    "Noah the Righteous" in a generation of pure evil; Gen 6:9-11:32

    Another thing we can note about the ark is that was divided into three parts. The bottom deck (where probably all the heavier animals were kept) the middle deck and the top deck (where Noach and his family probably lived). The Tabernacle was also divided into three parts, the outer court, the...

    "Noah the Righteous" in a generation of pure evil; Gen 6:9-11:32

    PARASHAH; “Noach” GENESIS 6:9-11:32 The Torah says; “Noah was a righteous man, perfect in his generation, and Noah walked with Elohim” Noah was a “Tzadik” a righteous man. This is a powerful statement since, in his days, the whole populated earth was corrupt, yet he and his family decided...

    Isaiah 42:5-43:10 and John 1:1

    ISAIAH 42:5-43:10 The prophet speaks through the Spirit of YHVH saying: “I, YHVH, have called you in righteousness, and I take hold of your hand and guard you, and give you for a Brit (covenant) to a people, for a Light to the gentiles, to open blind eyes, to bring out prisoners from the...

    "Creation" the Masterpiece of the MASTER! Genesis 1-6

    Now, if I were going to study every verse, this first parashah would be perhaps ten pages long, so, we are going to jump a bit. Elohim created all that this earth contains in 6 literal days, of 24-hour periods. Now, there are some SSs (silly scientists) that say, “The six days are considered...

    "Creation" the Masterpiece of the MASTER! Genesis 1-6

    The following are “Torah Parashot” or “Portions from the Torah” which are read and studied every week for one year. A “Torah portion” is a “Parashah” and it consists of readings from the five books that Moshe penned down, readings from the Prophets, and readings from the Brit HaDashah, “The New...

    "Creation" the Masterpiece of the MASTER! Genesis 1-6

    The Feast of Tabernacles is the last of the “High Holy Days” which ends on the 8th day, on the 22nd of Tishrei. It is a special day which is called “Simchat Torah” or “Joy of the Torah”. We rejoice because we have the WORD of God in our midst. It is His complete word, complete revelation...

    A Review of the High Holy days (Fall Festivals) of God....and a small testimony

    SHALOM TO ALL: Well, I'm back in El Salvador after spending 6 wonderful weeks of family time and ministry in Miami, Florida. No, the hurricane did not hit South Florida, but rather the Central part. Testimony: Well, What can I say? I visited and participated in the Erev Shabbat and...

    Isaiah 49:14-51:3 and John 7:1-8:59

    ISAIAH 49:14-51:3 Israel cries out “The LORD hath forsaken me and forgotten me” but the prophet through the Holy Spirit assures the people, NO, the LORD has NOT forsaken you. There is a big difference between, “abandonment, forgetfulness, and chastisement”. The fact that YHVH has punished his...

    "Just what does God ask of you?" (Deuteronomy 7:12-11:25)

    Amen, you are so right. thank you for your comment.

    "Just what does God ask of you?" (Deuteronomy 7:12-11:25)

    PARASHAH: Ekev (as a result) DEUT: 7:12-11:25 “Now, O Israel, what does Adonai your Elohim ask of you? Only to fear Adonai your Elohim, walk in His Ways, Love Him, and Serve Him, with all of your heart and all of your soul” (10:12) I am jumping the gun a bit, but just “How much do you love...

    Isaiah 40:1-26 and John 6:1-71

    ISAIAH 40:1-26 The prophet comforts Israel that their sins have been forgiven, and the punishment is over. YHVH again is compared to a father who must punish his children for sins and disobedience. The father will chastise, yet not forever. Darkness has passed and the light has come. “The...

    When God says..."NO!" (Deut 3:23-7:11)

    Bible Study entitled “V’et’ Chanan” (and I pleaded) in; DEUT 3:23-7:11 Moshe continues to retell the experiences of his life to “Am Israel”(people of Israel) as the end of his life is nearing, He is like a father on his deathbed and causes all of his children to come near and listen to their...

    A look at Isaiah 1:1-27 and John 4:1-5:47

    ISAIAH 1:1-27 The prophet has a difficult calling, he tells Israel of their unfaithfulness, sinfulness, and how they wander away from God, and Adonai has to put up with the sacrifices, and celebration of “new Moons” the High Holy Days. Etc. not that there is anything bad in celebrating them...

    An Intro. to Deuteronomy (chapters 1:1-3:22)

    Parashah: “D’varim” (Words) DEUTERONOMY 1:1-3:22 We start the final book of the original 5 books of the Torah, in which Moshe wrote down all the statutes, commandments, precepts, details, etc. that Adonai dictated to him to write. We must remember that Am Israel received the first 10...
