    Leaving Egypt! (Exodus 13:17-17:16)

    PARASHAH: “B'shalach” (when he let go) or (when he sent out) EXODUS 13:17-17:16 We are coming down to the “showdown” 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...

    What does Jeremiah 46:13-28 and Matt 25:1-46 teach us?

    JEREMIAH 46:13-28 600 years later, after the fall of Egypt at Passover, disaster strikes, this time, YHVH uses Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon as the instrument of destruction against Egypt, seems like Egypt was not humbled after the Passover experience. You would think that the pharaohs who...

    A look into Exodus 10:1-13:16 and the first Passover

    PARASHA: “BO” (enter) EXODUS 10:1-13:16 The Parasha starts out; “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...

    The 8 Promises from God in Exodus 6 (Exodus 6:2-9:35)

    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...

    A look at Isaiah 27:6-28:13 and also "Who is the ARM of the LORD?"

    ISAIAH 27:6-28:13 ” In the days to come, shall Jacob take root, Israel shall blossom and bud....” We see a fulfillment of this prophecy in that once taken from Egypt, and united and solidified as a “People” a “Nation”, this people/nation has grown and has spread out throughout the world Though...

    A look into the Book of Exodus (1-6)

    PARASHA: “Shemot” (Names) 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...

    A look at 1 Kings 2:1-12 "What does it mean to be "A Man?"

    1 KINGS 2:1-12 King David is on his deathbed and calls his son Solomon, and tells him “What it is to be a MAN!” so here's the truth to all “macho guys out there who just THINK they know what it is to be a real man. Melech David tells the truth through the Holy Spirit who guides his...

    Genesis 47:28-50:26 "Jacob blesses his children and "Who is Shiloh?"

    PARASHA: “VaYechi” (and he lived) GEN 47:28-50:26 In this we see Jacob (Israel) in his last days, he prepares to “go the way of all men” (As King David put it), Jacob is getting ready to die. He prepares himself and makes sure that his sons and grandsons are blessed and they know...

    Isaiah 9:1-7 (Good Christmas message)

    A look at Isaiah 9:1-7; Let's take a look at these verses and see what they are saying to us. The Ruach HaKodesh (the Holy Spirit) speaks through Yeshahayu (Isaiah) and says; The people living in darkness have seen a great light! upon those living in the land that lies in the shadow of death...

    Genesis 44:18-47:27 (I AM Joseph, come near to me)

    PARASHA: “VaYIGASH” (and he drew near) GENESIS 44:18-47:27 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 reaction of Yosef once he hears...

    1 Kings 3:15-4:1 and Matt 16-17

    1 KINGS 3:15-4:1 In this scripture portion, we see Solomon lifting up “burnt offerings” and “peace-offerings” after also having “dreams” In his dream YHVH asked him what he wished for, “For wisdom, an understanding heart to judge these people” and YHVH thus granted him what he wished for...

    A look at Genesis 41-44 (Joseph's life in Egypt)

    Parashah: “Miketz” (at the end of) GENESIS 41:1-44:17 When we look into this parashah study, we see Yosef, who was, in a way of speaking, in the “pit” He was cast into the prison for something he did not do, yet he continued to trust YHVH for his needs. This reminds us of Melech...

    Joseph, from slave to ruler, in God's perfect timing (Gen 37-40)

    PARASHA: “VaYeshev” (and he settled) GENESIS 37:1-1-40:23 In this study, the focus is on Yosef, who is going to be in the limelight of God. Things seem to be going from bad to worse for this young teenager. it wasn't all his fault we could say. His father Jacob held him high up on a pedestal...

    So, what is Hanukkah all about?

    A STUDY ON HANUKKAH, WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT? “And it was at Jerusalem the Feast of the Dedication (Hanukkah), and it was winter, and Yeshua (Jesus) walked in the temple in Solomon's porch” (John 10:22,23) the chapter goes on to say that the Jews gathered around him, asking him to tell them...

    Jacob and Esau, Time for Reconciliation! us too! (Gen 32-36)

    Parashah: “VaYishlach” (and he sent) GENESIS: 32:3-36:43 We see in this week's parashah, that Ya'akov is on his way home to Beth-El, He comes to his “encounter” with his brother Esav. It is a time of tension for him, as we know, he “stole” from him the blessing. Or was it really theft...

    A look at John 1:51 and Hosea 12:13-14:9

    JOHN 1:51 Then He said; “I assure you; You will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the 'Son of Man'. What is this “ascending and descending” mean? Could this have a meaning? Well, all things, activities, and actions have meanings. One way we might look at this...

    Jacob's Ladder or God's Ladder (Gen28:10-32:2)

    Parashah: “VaYetze” (and he went out) GENESIS 28:10-32:2 In this parashah study, we see that Jacob is on his way to Haran to find himself a wife (or two). He is tired after a long day's journey, He stops to rest outside of a city called “Luz” (Almond) and scripture says that he settles down...

    KEEP ISRAEL IN YOUR PRAYERS

    PLEASE KEEP ISRAEL IN YOUR PRAYERS. It is said that the world hated 2 nations. Rome and Israel. Rome because its empire was cruel and dominated a great part of the Middle East and Europe. Israel because it is God's chosen nation. From Israel came the Messiah and Judaism. There would be no...

    A look at Malachi 1:1-2:7 and Matt 10:1-11:30

    MAL 1:1-2:7 The prophet speaks and writes through the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) “Jacob have I loved, but Esau I have hated”. You ask, “Isn't God love?” isn't God all about love? Why does he “hate poor Esau?” The word “hate” has the same meaning as “reject”. YHVH who is “all-knowing” knew...
