In last week's Torah reading (Shoftim), Moses defined an extensive system of justice for the Israelites and pointed to the coming Messiah who would be the rightful King of Israel: "The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers -- it is to him you shall listen" (Deut. 18:15).  In this week's portion (i.e., parashat Ki Teitzei: כי־תצא), Moses returns to the immediate concern of life in the promised land by providing additional laws to be enforced regarding civil life in Israel. In fact, Jewish tradition (following Maimonides) identifies no less than 74 of the Torah's 613 commandments in this portion (more than any other), covering a wide assortment of rules related to ethical warfare, family life, burial of the deceased, property laws, the humane treatment of animals, fair labor practices, and honest economic transactions.

Of particular interest to us is the law regarding capital offenses and the instruction that one who was executed and “hanged on a tree” (עַל־עֵץ) is under the curse of God (Deut. 21:22-23).  According to the Talmud (Nezakim: Sanhedrin 6:4:3), the Great Sanhedrin (סַנְהֶדְרִין גְדוֹלָה) decided that “a man must be hanged with his face towards the spectators” upon a wooden stake, with his arms slung over a horizontal beam. It should be noted that while this is technically not the same thing as the gruesome practice of Roman crucifixion, the reasoning based on this verse was apparently used to justify the execution of Yeshua (Mark 15:9-15; John 19:5-7; 15). The exposed body was required to be buried before sundown to keep the land from being defiled. Besides the shame of this manner of death, the one so executed would be unable to fall to their knees as a final act of repentance before God, thereby implying that they were under the irrevocable curse of God (קִלְלַת אֱלהִים).

Any and every name that can be named, will be named. 3 months ago the Lord said high profile arrests were coming down the pipeline- you can find that very section of prophecy in two recent messages: CHINA IS READY and THE JUSTICE OF YAH VS A CORRUPT CHURCH.

These prophecies are here to give wisdom, warning & time for the Church to repent of worldliness, idolatry, and living for itself vs building lives that bless & glorify God. Enter the Ark of Salvation while there is down, because now you can see the tall trees falling and all their money, bullying & power cannot save them. Remember what God said. When He has cut down all the trees, He will turn and mow the grass. That's us, so let the wise mow themselves before Yah gets to purging the church. Shalom. 🌺

"TIGHTEN UP THE CORNERS": NOTES ON OBEDIENCE, REPENTANCE, DELIVERANCE & SCOFFERS OF THIS GENERATION

Our Torah reading for this week, parashat Vayechi (ויחי), recounts how the great patriarch Jacob adopted Joseph's two sons (Ephraim and Manasseh) as his own children. When Jacob blessed the boys, however, he intentionally reversed the birth order by putting the younger before the older, signifying that the old struggle he had faced as a child was over, and he now understood things differently. And note Ephraim and Manasseh’s reaction: the older did not envy the younger, nor did the younger boast over the older. The family had apparently learned that blessing from God is for the good of all, and that there is no real blessing apart from genuine humility that esteems the welfare of others.  Jacob was now ready to summon his family to hear his final words.  Among other things, he foretold how the Messiah would come from the line of Judah and then instructed his sons to bury him only in the promised land, and not in Egypt.

Shavuah Tov for parashat Vayechi

In our Torah for this week (i.e., parashat Va'era), the LORD told Moses that He was about to fulfill His promise to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob by giving the Israelites the land of Canaan, and that he had heard the "groaning of the people of Israel whom the Egyptians held as slaves" (Exod. 6:5). The showdown between the LORD (יהוה) and the so-called gods of Egypt was imminent, and God therefore encouraged the people with precious promises: "I AM the LORD (אֲנִי יְהוָה) and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgment; and I will take you to me for a people and I will be to you a God" (these are the “four expressions of redemption” we recite during the Passover Seder every year). 

Despite these wonderful promises, however, the people were unable to listen because of their “shortness of breath” (מִקּצֶר רוּחַ) on account of their harsh slavery. The LORD then told Moses: “Go in, tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the people of Israel go out of his land,” and the great showdown between the LORD and the gods of Egypt began. However, even after  repeatedly witnessing the series of miraculous plagues issued in the Name of the LORD, the despot remained proud and unmoved, thereby setting the stage for the final devastating plagues upon the land of Egypt and the great Passover redemption of Israel.

Sefer Shemot - Hebrew for Christians

Parashat Vaera

Shavuah Tov for parashat Va'era

Our Torah reading for this week begins with God commanding Moses “to go” (i.e., bo: בּא) before Pharaoh to announce further apocalyptic judgments upon Egypt. The purpose of this power encounter was to vindicate God’s justice and glory (deliverance/salvation) by overthrowing the tyranny of unjust human oppression. Pharaoh’s nightmare of “one little lamb” outweighing all the firstborn of Egypt was about to be fulfilled....

Shavuah Tov for parashat Bo

The fifth section of the book of Exodus (Exod. 18:1 - 20:23) begins with the account of how Moses’ father-in-law Jethro (Yitro in Hebrew) met up with Moses near Mount Sinai, giving him advice and direction about how to establish a judicial system for the Israelites, and then goes on to provide the account of the revelation of the Ten Commandments by God at Mount Sinai. This event, called mattan Torah, or the giving of the Torah, is central to the entire account of our redemption as the children of God, since it provides revelation not only about our basic spiritual and moral obligations, but also provides the vision of the altar of the lamb of God that was to be offered every day both in remembrance of the Passover redemption and also to foretell the coming our Yeshua our Messiah, the sacrificial "Lamb of God" who takes away the sins of the world.

In in this audio podcast, I discuss the basic narrative of parashat Yitro and explore some of the more prominent themes regarding the giving of the law at Sinai, the meaning of the imperative language and the idea of a commandment, the importance of a heart connection with God, and more.

Parashat Yitro

Shavuah Tov Yitro

Shavuah Tov for parashat Yitro

As people of faith in the LORD, we profoundly feel the tension between affirming both that our loving Creator sustains all things by the word of his power while also acknowledging the ongoing depravity of human beings and how that results in suffering, heartache, and pain in this world. In this audio discussion, I ponder some questions that arise when we seriously consider these matters....

Reflections about faith and the challenge of evil...

In this audio broadcast I discuss the the 40 day "Season of Teshuvah" or repentance leading up to the Jewish High Holidays as well as the weekly Torah portion, parashat Ki Tavo, which includes instructions for the people to ratify the Sinai covenant in the promised land by means of a special covenant renewal ceremony performed in the valley between Mount Ebal and Mount Gerazim.  During this ceremony blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience would be declared, and Moses warned the people by providing a seemingly endless description of terrible consequences that would befall the Jewish people if they disobeyed the terms of the Sinai covenant (Deut. 28:15-68). In Jewish tradition this litany of woe is called the “tochachah” (תּוֹכָחָה), a word that means "rebuke" or "reprimand." Reading the tochachah is difficult and painful, though it serves as a bitter medicine to wake us up and prevent us from falling into a lethal coma. In that sense the tochechah may be regarded as a great blessing, since it shocks us into experiencing the gravity of God’s grace. This is similar to Yeshua’s grave warnings about the dangers of hell. If we refuse to listen or rush past his words, we are missing the substance of God’s lament given through the Hebrew prophets. Sin is a lethal problem, and we must turn to God for healing or we will die. As Blaise Pascal once wrote, “Between heaven and hell is only this life, which is the most fragile thing in the world.”  Therefore shuvah! -- turn to God and receive the blessing of life!

An overview of the Ten Commandments of the Torah (Aseret Hadibrot) and how they are to be understood in light of the New Covenant of the Messiah Yeshua as "ten matters of heart."  In addition, the basic chronology of the Sinai experience is examined and how key events were enshrined in the holidays of Shavuot (Pentecost) and Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement).

Ten Matters of Heart - further thoughts on the Ten Commandments

Shalom chaverim.  In this "Daily Dvar" broadcast I discuss what I have called the "blessing of holy desperation," or that very special blessing of needing God so viscerally that you would otherwise fall apart or even self-destruct apart from his ongoing intervention in your life.  I hope you will find it helpful.
