    Can God's jurisprudence system (Exodus 21-24) affect us today? Or some of it?

    Can God's jurisprudence system (Exodus 21-24) affect us today? Or some of it?

    PARASHA: “Mishpatim” (Judgments) “God's Jurisprudence for His chosen people.” It is very interesting how this Torah/Bible study portion begins in the original Hebrew language: "V'eileh ha mishpatim." "AND these are the judgments, or rulings..." When a verse begins with "and" (the Hebrew letter...

    "The Decalog," what is God saying here?

    Yet we see today, even though we don't make or bow down to silver, gold, wooden statues that symbolize who God is, or TRY to symbolize who he is, sorry guys, they didn't have cameras back then to take pictures, many bow down and consider more important things like; football, soccer, money, sex...

    "The Decalog," what is God saying here?

    EXODUS 18:1-20:26 We see in this study a lot of wisdom on the part of Moses and Yitro, his father-in-law. First, we learn that Moses had sent his wife and children back to stay with their father and grandfather. I believe that, for safekeeping, when one sees danger, it is wise to care for one's...

    Free at Last, Free at Last, through God we are "Free at Last." (Exodus 13:17-17:16)

    Amen, God is the Lion, and the Lamb, all in one. We "symbolically" eat his flesh (invite him to come inside of us) and drink his blood (again, invite him to come inside of us to live in us through his Holy Spirit. It is SYMBOLISM.

    Free at Last, Free at Last, through God we are "Free at Last." (Exodus 13:17-17:16)

    The name “Elohim” and “YHVH” are both used in this Parashah, “Elohim” is used in the beginning of this parashah, in Chap 13:17 meaning the “Strong, powerful God” yet the name YHVH later on, shows the personal name, (coming from “Havayah” meaning “to exist”) shows the personal relationship as...

    Free at Last, Free at Last, through God we are "Free at Last." (Exodus 13:17-17:16)

    PARASHAH: “B'shalach” (when he let go) EXODUS 13:17-17:16.... We are coming down to the “show down” where Pharaoh gets his just desserts, and gets what he deserves for defying the God of Israel, going back on his word to “let Israel go”, you cannot pursue Israel without getting hurt, and...

    Are we giving "lip service" to God, or are we sincere?

    “Go sacrifice to your God in the land” (just stay in Egypt) “go to the wilderness, but not so far away.” (yes, so we can keep an eye on you so that you don’t run away!) “Go serve the LORD, the men only” (yet Adonai wants “all the people”) “go serve the LORD, but your herds and flocks stay here”...

    Are we giving "lip service" to God, or are we sincere?

    Exodus 10:1-13:16: “And the LORD said unto Moshe, ‘Go in unto Pharaoh’…” Strange, the word “Go” in Hebrew is “Sh’lach”, but the Hebrew scriptures read “Bo” (enter) so, in reality, the Word of God is saying, “Enter, or Come in unto Pharaoh” But why? One way of looking at this is that Adonai is...

    EZEKIEL 28:25-29:21

    EZEKIEL 28:25-29:21 The prophet speaks through the Holy Spirit and affirms that, even though Israel has been scattered throughout the world's countries, they will be returned to their land in the future. It is already happening; Israel was recognized as a nation in 1948, and since then...

    THE JUDGMENTS AGAINST EGYPT; and PROMISES IN EXODUS 6

    PARASHA: “Va’era” (and I appeared) EXODUS 6:2-9:35 YHVH speaks to Moshe saying that when he appeared to Abraham, he revealed himself as “El Shaddai” which means “God Almighty” or “God all-powerful, yet he did not reveal himself as he did to Moshe, with Moshe he revealed himself with the more...

    "From Dry Bones to Filled Lungs" (Lesson 14 of 16) "By Faith Ye Must be Born Again"

    Lesson 14 of 16 in the Bible study series "From Dry Bones to Filled Lungs" (By Faith Ye Must be Born Again) John 3 Who was Nikodemus? Did he understand or not understand what it meant to be 'born again'? The Pharisees had some ideas about being 'born again,' but not in the way Yeshua/Jesus...

    A look at Exodus 1-6 "Rescue from bondage in Egypt"

    I would like to mention that this "daughter of Pharaoh" was a proselyte, whose name was "Bit-Yah" or "BatYah." "Daughter of God." Her name is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 4 as being the wife of "Mered," one of the descendants of Judah. When she married Mered is not known. So, she was "grafted into"...

    A look at Exodus 1-6 "Rescue from bondage in Egypt"

    EXODUS 1:1-6:1 We enter into a new era, Jacob/Israel and Joseph are now in the past, yet their legacy continues, in “Am Yisrael” (The People of Israel). ”70 souls” entered Mitzraim (Egypt). It is interesting that the Hebrew word “Nefesh” is used for “souls,” yet the word is in the singular...

    The Power of Forgiveness

    PARASHA: “VaYIGASH” (and he drew near) GENESIS 44:18-47:27 "The Power of Forgiveness" In this Parashah, we read that “he (Y'hudah) drew near” to Yosef, and shows himself as truly repentant for his past actions against Yosef, for selling him for the price of a common slave. And we see the...
