    Isaiah 60 and John 13

    ISAIAH 60:1-22 Israel can rejoice, for the OR ISRAEL has come, the LIGHT of ISRAEL, will attract all the nations. Isaiah gets a glimpse of the future of Israel, perhaps the millennium Israel, when YESHUA is on the throne, what a time that will be. Jerusalem will be the capital of the...

    looking at Deuteronomy 26:1-29:9

    But let us also remember that “Salvation” is a separate issue, “salvation” is a done deal when we accept Yeshua as Messiah and LORD in our lives. Through our salvation experience, we should be led by the Holy Spirit to love and obey the teaching that is within God’s Holy Writ, and not that we...

    looking at Deuteronomy 26:1-29:9

    "Ki Tavo" (When you enter in ) DEUT 26:1-29:9 We are coming to the end of Moshe’s earthly ministry, and he reiterates again, the importance of following and obeying the Torah of Elohim. “Am Israel” is still in the desert wilderness, but it isn’t like the desert that we find today in the middle...

    Deuteronomy 21:10-15:19

    Vs 5; “A woman must not put on a man’s apparel, not a man, woman’s clothing” In Biblical times, clothing was generally the same; long, flowing tunics tied with a cloth or leather belt or sash and on the feet, sandals. There was, however, a difference between men’s and women’s tunics, perhaps in...

    Deuteronomy 21:10-15:19

    Vs 18 talks about the “wayward son” in that, if he is rebellious and defiant, refusing correction, his parents have the right to take him to the “shoftim” (judges) and they would order him to be stoned. Rebellion had a death sentence connected to it. We never read in scripture that this actually...

    Deuteronomy 21:10-15:19

    DEUT 21:10-25:19 In this study, we see a lot of common-sense mitzvoth that are for today, and we can also see some mitzvoth that we need to take a good look at to see how we can apply them, perhaps not so much literally, but spiritually and morally. In some cases, both. According to some...

    Why?

    Why? Why did our Heavenly Father give mankind a second chance? even after the flood? Because: HE LOVED US SO

    A brief look at Isaiah 54:1-10 and John 12:1-50

    ISAIAH 54:1-10 “Shout O Barren one, you who bore no child, shout aloud for joy…” We ask when does a barren woman shout for joy because she cannot have children? I would guess that it depends on the circumstances. This reminds us of Sarah, who was barren, yet she did not give up hope...

    Is it OK for one to "judge" another?

    If we attempt to change a biblical landmark, we are “taking away” from the Word of God, we are headed for trouble. Dad told Jimmy, “Ten feet away from the wasp nest is the landmark, don’t go beyond it!” but Jimmy went beyond it, he got closer, the wasps didn’t like that, and a wasp flew over...

    Is it OK for one to "judge" another?

    PARASHAH: “Shoftim” (judges) DEUT: 16:18: -21:9……… ISAIAH 51:12-52:12…… JOHN 1:1-57 This parashah starts off with; “Judges (shoftim) and officers shalt thou make thee at thy gates, which YHVH thy Elohim giveth thee…. they shall judge the people with “righteous judgment…” Many people...

    What are the "Days of Awe?"

    Difficult to say, I'd like to think that the sounding of the trumpets during the time of Yom Terah would be the time that all believers are taken up, Only God knows the exact time and second, yet we know the season. We need to be ready, at any time

    What are the "Days of Awe?"

    THE DAYS OF AWE Monday evening (August 9th, 2021) , at sunset, marks the beginning of the Hebrew month of “Elul”. It is a special month since it is a month of “retrospect”, of “meditation” of “contemplation” of “reflection” or whatever word you might use to describe “Where Am I in my...

    A Blessing or a curse, the choice is ours (Deut 11: 26-16:17)

    Parashah: “Re’eh” (see) DEUT: 11:26-16:17 With this Parasha, we start the month of Elul, which is the month of soul searching and meditation on our relationship with Adonai. It starts the 40 days of Awe which culminate with Yom Kippur. We should ask these questions to ourselves; “where...

    A brief look at Isaiah 54 and John 9, is there a connection?

    ISAIAH 54:11-55:5 “Navi Yeshayahu” (The Prophet Isaiah) speaks as directed by the Holy Spirit, as a father who comforts his children, promising them blessings, but begins with “Unhappy, storm-tossed one”, meaning that Israel has been through a lot, deportation to Babylon, destruction of...

    What does God ask of you? (A brief look at Deut 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 little bit, but just...

    Isaiah 49 and John 7, a short Midrash / Study

    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...

    Isaiah 40:1 to 26 and John 6

    ISAIAH 40:1-26 The prophet comforts Israel that their sins have been forgiven, 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...

    Isaiah 1: 1 to 27 and John 4:1 to 5:47

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

    An Introduction to Deuteronomy

    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 commandments directly from...

    On making vows and taking our journeys with God

    The last stop is the “Canaan” stop, “death” is our trip across the Jordan River that will bring us to the River of Life in the World to Come, In the New Jerusalem, we will receive our share of our inheritance, issued out to us by Our LORD and Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach, (Jesus the Christ) Then...
