Podcasts about Amalek

Welcome to Season 6 of Remember What's Next, with Ellie Bass and Rabbi Ken Spiro.This season, we're exploring Jewish history through the people who shaped it: who they were, the choices they made, and how their influence continues to shape our lives as Jews today.We're beginning with Shaul, King Saul, Israel's first king, whose story raises difficult questions about leadership, compassion, and moral courage. How could the same man who spared Agag, the king of Amalek, later order the killing of the priests of Nov? What shaped his judgment—and what can we learn from those contradictions?We'll also explore the idea of “suicidal empathy”: when compassion, disconnected from judgment and responsibility, ends up enabling harm. How do we distinguish mercy from misplaced sympathy? When does humility become a fear of standing firm? And how do we recognize when our own emotions are clouding our sense of what is right?Join us as we get to know Shaul—and consider what his story asks of us today.Want the full story? Start from episode one.As Winston Churchill said, "The farther back you can look, the farther forward you are likely to see." That's exactly what we're doing — going all the way back, so we can understand the present and shape what comes next.

(This podcast was previously published on, November 9, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   The children of Israel wanted a king to rule over them as the other nations had.  God gave them a king who was Saul.  God even sent Samuel to anoint Saul as king.   Saul was given the Word of God and the Holy Spirit of God (I Samuel 10:10), but Saul did not fully obey God, and Saul did not do what God said to do, and did not obey God, and became very twisted by devils in his thinking.   For devils twist the Word of God and try to justify disobedience to God.  

Exodus 17:8-16 Dr. Steven Roby

I'd like to share a beautiful thought on Sukkos developed by Chacham Yosef Harari-Raful, Rosh Yeshivah of Ateret Torah. As we all know, Sukkos is zman simchateinu , the season of our rejoicing. But to truly understand this, we must first ask: What is genuine simchah , and when does a person truly feel happy and fulfilled? The answer begins with a fundamental human necessity—having a place in this world. The Tragedy of Placelessness In the narrative of Bereishit, when Kayin killed his brother Hevel, Hashem declared that the blood from the ground cried out for reckoning. What was the curse of Kayin? Na vanad tiyeh ba'aretz —"You shall be a perpetual wanderer on the earth." He was condemned to be an exile, stripped of root and ground. By severing the sanctity of life, Kayin lost his entitlement to exist in a defined space. There is no greater punishment than being deprived of a rightful place. Although Kayin repented and reached a compromise with Hashem, the core lesson remains. The Sfat Emet (Parashat Vayeshev 5764) expounds upon this concept within the laws of the arei miklat , the cities of refuge. He explains that by strict justice, someone who takes a life—even unwittingly—should forfeit their right to exist in this world, just like Kayin. Yet in Hashem's mercy, He created a refuge: Vesamti lecha makom asher yanus shamah —"I will assign you a place to which he may flee." Even in exile, divine compassion established a space for the displaced. In the tefillah recited after Shir Hashirim, we say: Venizkeh l'Makom shehanefashot vehaneshamot veharuchot nechtzavot misham —may we merit to arrive at the Place from which all spirits, souls, and vital breaths were hewn. That is the ultimate fulfillment: for the soul to return to its origin. When people comfort a mourner, bar minan , they say, HaMakom yenachem etchem . Many understand this to mean that the departed soul's place in Gan Eden should bring comfort. Even more than that, it means they have finally arrived at their ultimate station; they have reached their eternal makom . Entering the Sukkah: Returning to the Source This reality echoes in every facet of our earthly journey. When someone finds their rightful spouse, their shidduch , an overflowing joy takes hold because they have finally arrived at their true station in life. Why do we feel a spontaneous simchah the moment we step into the sukkah? Because the neshamah recognizes that it was not carved from the fabric of this material world. Week after week, throughout the cycle of the year, the soul incessantly pleads to break free from the constraints of the mundane. When a person crosses the threshold and enters the sukkah, enveloped by its sacred walls, an immediate sense of arrival washes over body and soul. The Imrei Emet ( Shabbat Chol HaMoed Succot)—that the Pesikta asks: Why do we build a sukkah immediately following Yom Kippur? Because if it was decreed on Yom Kippur that we must go into exile, we fulfill that exile by departing into the sukkah. And why does Hashem enter the sukkah with us? Because the Halachah states that if a student is exiled to an ir miklat , his rebbe goes into exile with him. Before a baal teshuvah repents, his sins strip away his foundation; the earth is pulled out from beneath him. What does Hashem do for us? He creates an ir miklat —He provides us with a refuge, and that refuge is the sukkah. When we step inside, pure happiness follows. Traditional sources teach that one of the most severe punishments—even beyond Gehinnom—is kaf hakela , a spiritual sling in which a soul is perpetually flung about without a resting place. Although the sukkah is designated as a dirat arai , a temporary dwelling, it is spiritually our enduring home. We do not belong to this material existence. Our true role in this world is to recognize its impermanence and anchor ourselves in what lies beyond. Hashem is called HaMakom because He is Mekomo shel olam —He is the Place of the universe; the world does not contain Him, He contains the world. Reaching our true makom means realizing that our real home is within Hashem. When we reach this sanctuary, the Ushpizin come to visit us, feeling completely at home within the shade of faith, the tzilah d'heimnuta . Joy Found Within Boundaries The greatest rejoicing in the Beit HaMikdash was Simchat Beit HaShoevah. The Rambam describes this extraordinary celebration in Hilchot Sukkah (Chapter 8, Halachah 14), emphasizing that not just anyone could lead or perform there. A person had to know their place. The leaders and the heads of the yeshivot were the ones who danced, while the rest of the nation watched from their designated spots. In Midrash Rabbah (Bereishit 34:15), the rabbis expound on the verse in Yechezkel (36:26): Vahasiroti et lev ha'even mibasarcheim —"I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a lev basar , a heart of flesh." The Midrash notes that the word basar ( בשר ) can also be read homiletically as boser ( בוסר ), meaning sour or bitter—resembling the interchange of sin and samech found in words like sotah and shotah . The Almighty promises to remove the heart that feels bitter over the success of another. True simchah , as explained by the Tiferet Yosef on Chag HaSukkot (written by Rav Mordechai Yosef Elazar Leiner of the Radzyn dynasty), arises when a person knows their exact place. When you know your place and feel comfortable in your own skin, you become genuinely sameach bechelko —content with your portion. There is no greater happiness than that. Simchat Beit HaShoevah embodied this awareness: every soul recognized where it belonged without trespassing into another's territory. That is the essence of the blessing she'asah li kol tzarki —Hashem has provided me with everything I need, and I have no reason to covet what is on someone else's plate. The Shem MiShmuel (Bamidbar, 5673) teaches that the joy of the degalim (the tribal banners in the desert) stemmed from this exact clarity: everyone knew their assigned place. There were twelve tribes and twelve paths. Each person rejoiced in their distinct path, knowing every soul possesses a designated post. These banners mirrored the celestial hosts above: the camp of Michael embodies lovingkindness, the camp of Gavriel represents awe, and each carries out its unique role. Because of this, Oseh shalom bimromav —there is peace in the heavens, without jealousy or strife. This harmony mirrors the prophetic vision of Yeshayahu (11:13) regarding the ultimate redemption: Ephraim lo yekaneh et Yehudah —Ephraim will not envy Yehudah, and Yehudah will not vex Ephraim. That was the secret of Har Sinai: Vayichan sham Yisrael —they encamped "as one person with one heart." Guarding the Sacred Four Cubits This is also the heart of Shabbat: Shevu ish tachtav —"Let every person remain in his place." Shabbat is defined by menuchah , tranquil rest. It is the time when you return to your true setting. Recall the Midrash Tanchuma on Kayin: what was the protective sign given to preserve him? It was the sign of Shabbat, as the verse says, Ot hi beini uveineichem —"It is a sign between Me and you." Shabbat grants us our rest; on Shabbat, we come home. There are divine boundaries: remain in your spot, do not step outside your realm. The Shem MiShmuel (Korach, 5677) notes that Korach opposed the concept of Shabbat because Shabbat signifies completion—the acceptance of boundaries. As the Chiddushei HaRim observed, even in spiritual aspirations, one must be content with their assigned mission. Korach refused to accept his place; he demanded what was not intended for him, and thus Korach and the spirit of Shabbat stand in direct opposition. Rav Yehudah Ades shared in the name of Dayan Wosner that every individual is granted their own four cubits ( daled amot )—roughly six feet of private space. In Halachah, if an ownerless object enters your four cubits, you acquire it; it is your personal domain. The same principle governs the laws of Shabbat: carrying an object beyond four cubits in the public domain violates the boundary, for the Torah instructs, Al yetzei ish mimkomo —"Let no person go out of their place." Yet, as Dayan Weiss noted, carrying a smartphone can dismantle that space. When you are continuously tethered to a screen, you are no longer present in your own four cubits. You lose your private world. On the Shoulders of Hashem The authentic place of the Jewish people is revealed by Rashi on Shemot (17:8): we are carried upon Hashem's shoulders. The ananei hakavod , the clouds of glory, represent those divine shoulders—which the sukkah evokes. As long as we recognize that we are carried by Hashem, we remain secure. But when we lose that awareness, we step outside the protective clouds, leaving an opening for Amalek to attack. Amalek shares the same numerical value as safek ( ספק ), meaning doubt. As the classic adage reminds us, Ein simchah kehatorat hasefeikot —there is no greater joy than the resolution of doubt. Amalek personifies uncertainty; when doubt pulls us away from our spiritual coordinates, joy disappears. When Hashem spoke to Moshe at the burning bush (Shemot 3:5), He said: HaMakom asher atah omeid alav admat kodesh hu —"The place upon which you stand is holy ground." The Chafetz Chaim remarked that people often daydream: If only I lived in that house, if only I studied in that yeshivah, if only I had been born into that family or found myself in different circumstances... But the Torah responds directly: the ground you are standing upon right now is holy. Find your designated place. Recognize where you are, remove your shoes, and connect with bare feet to the mission given to you. And that is precisely why on Yom Kippur we remove our shoes: to step fully and without barrier onto our sacred ground, anchored in our true makom before Hashem. We continue this with the Holiday of Succot and try to keep it going the entire year.

(This podcast was previously published on, October 31, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   The judges in the Old Testament who were raised up by God, administered justice in the sight of God, destroying the enemies of the children of God of the nation of Israel, and delivering the children of Israel from various bondages.   In the Bible, the book of Judges tells us of the work of those judges appointed by God.   We see many Judges named in the book of Judges.     And the following pattern recurs through those decades.   The children of Israel did evil in the sight of God.  God would then turn them over to the nations of men to rule over them with hard bondages, often for many years.   The children of Israel went into evil because they would not fully obey God.   Judges 2   1 And an angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break MY covenant with you.   2 And ye shall make no league with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye have not obeyed MY voice: why have ye done this?   3 Wherefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare unto you.  

Packinghouse's Wednesday night worship service from September 16, 2026. As Israel continues through the wilderness, God leads them through difficult situations that teach them to trust His love and care. When the people find themselves without water, they doubt God and accuse Him of bringing them out to die, yet He responds with grace and provides water from the rock, pointing forward to Jesus. Later, when Amalek attacks, Joshua fights in the valley while Moses prays on the mountain, with Aaron and Hur holding up his weary hands. Through both trials, God shows His people that He is with them, patiently growing their faith and teaching them to depend on Him and one another. - Greg Opean - Wednesday, September 16, 2026

Audio reading: Deut 25:1-19, Isaiah 10:1-11:16, 2 Cor 12:11-21, Psalm 56:1-13, Prov 23:6-8 In this podcast, we delve into the profound biblical instruction of Remembering Deuteronomy's Command to Remember What Amalek Did. This commandment holds significant historical and spiritual implications for the Israelites. The scripture urges us to “Remember what Amalek did to you as you came out of Egypt,” highlighting the treacherous attack on the weary and vulnerable. This act of aggression is a pivotal moment that leads to the divine mandate that you will blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. Understanding why God commanded the Israelites to blot out Amalek involves exploring the nature of Amalek's actions and their defiance against divine authority. The command to blot out Amalek is not just about erasing a memory but ensuring justice and righteousness prevail. The narrative of Remembering Deuteronomy's Command to Remember What Amalek Did serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and moral integrity. As we reflect on the past, we are called to “Remember what Amalek did to you as you came out of Egypt” and to act justly in our own lives. In practical terms, you will blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven by fostering a community that upholds truth and justice. This involves recognizing and addressing injustices in our own contexts.

Believers take every opportunity to extol God's greatness so that the lost might come to faith… and it starts with family.After the victory over Amalek, Moses is reunited with his father-in-law Jethro. Moses does not merely exchange small talk. He recounts in detail everything the Lord has done—delivering Israel from Egypt, providing for them, and defeating their enemies. Jethro responds with praise and comes to faith, declaring, “Now I know that the Lord is greater than all the gods.”Moses models what it means to “own the room” for God's greatness: building genuine relationships, going deep, and confidently proclaiming the works of the Lord. The message begins at home. If we will not speak clearly of Christ to our own families, we do not yet love them as we should.Preached by Rodney Brown Jr. at Rhome Bible ChurchWebsite: https://www.rhomebible.org#Exodus #BibleTeaching #RhomeBibleChurch #Sermon #ChristianPodcast #BiblicalPreaching #GodsSovereignty #OldTestament #Faith #ImpartingTheWord #Reformed #ExpositionalPreaching #ExpositionalTeaching #Evangelism #Family

God's children look to Him for direction and motivation, knowing He fights their battles.After the people test the Lord at Rephidim, Amalek suddenly attacks. For the first time since leaving Egypt, Israel is called not merely to stand still and watch, but to fight. Joshua leads the army while Moses stands on the hill with the staff of God in his hand. As long as Moses' hands are raised, Israel prevails; when they drop, Amalek gains the advantage.Aaron and Hur support Moses' hands until the victory is secured. Moses then builds an altar and names it Yahweh Nissi—“The Lord is my Banner.” The people are to look to their Banner for direction and motivation, knowing it is the Lord Himself who fights for them.Preached by Rodney Brown Jr. at Rhome Bible ChurchWebsite: https://www.rhomebible.org#Exodus #BibleTeaching #RhomeBibleChurch #Sermon #ChristianPodcast #BiblicalPreaching #GodsSovereignty #OldTestament #Faith #ImpartingTheWord #Reformed #ExpositionalPreaching #ExpositionalTeaching #YahwehNissi #TheLordIsMyBanner

https://michaelbasham.com/Perhaps you're like a lot of people who say they don't believe in God but aren't really atheists. Maybe you simply haven't made a final decision because you haven't had a real chance to know the Truth! But even if you have doubts or questions on your mind or heart that need answering in order for you to be convinced, if you're sincere and really want the answers, if you really want to know God, He will show you!Even if you don't believe in God or the Bible or anything else, you can put God in a test tube and prove He exists!--And you are the tube! You just need to put God in you and see what happens! If you'll just sincerely pray, "God, if there is a God out there somewhere, show me! Reveal Yourself!," He will! Once you admit the possibility, then you're giving God a chance and there's a tiny spark of faith, a little mustard seed of faith has begun to grow! And God will honor that faith by letting you see and feel and know the proof!God loves faith! He loves us because we believe Him!--And once we believe, then He will prove Himself in many ways so that you will no longer have to believe purely by faith. He will prove Himself to you by answers to prayers and miracles, even the change in your own lives and the lives of others. And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, when Ehud was dead.JDG.4:2 And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, that reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose host was Sisera, which dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.JDG.4:3 And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.JDG.4:4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.JDG.4:5 And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.JDG.4:6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said unto him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?JDG.4:7 And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine hand.JDG.4:8 And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, then I will not go.JDG.4:9 And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honour; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.JDG.4:10 And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.JDG.4:11 Now Heber the Kenite, which was of the children of Hobab the father in law of Moses, had severed himself from the Kenites, and pitched his tent unto the plain of Zaanaim, which is by Kedesh.JDG.4:12 And they shewed Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam was gone up to mount Tabor.JDG.4:13 And Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles unto the river of Kishon.JDG.4:14 And Deborah said unto Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the LORD hath delivered Sisera into thine hand: is not the LORD gone out before thee? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.JDG.4:15 And the LORD discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera lighted down off his chariot, and fled away on his feet.JDG.4:16 But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the host, unto Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell upon the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left.JDG.4:17 Howbeit Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite: for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.JDG.4:18 And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in unto her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle.JDG.4:19 And he said unto her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.JDG.4:20 Again he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and enquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No.JDG.4:21 Then Jael Heber's wife took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.JDG.4:22 And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples.JDG.4:23 So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.JDG.4:24 And the hand of the children of Israel prospered, and prevailed against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.Chapter 5JDG.5:1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,JDG.5:2 Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.JDG.5:3 Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, even I, will sing unto the LORD; I will sing praise to the LORD God of Israel.JDG.5:4 LORD, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.JDG.5:5 The mountains melted from before the LORD, even that Sinai from before the LORD God of Israel.JDG.5:6 In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travellers walked through byways.JDG.5:7 The inhabitants of the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.JDG.5:8 They chose new gods; then was war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?JDG.5:9 My heart is toward the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless ye the LORD.JDG.5:10 Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.JDG.5:11 They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the LORD, even the righteous acts toward the inhabitants of his villages in Israel: then shall the people of the LORD go down to the gates.JDG.5:12 Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam.JDG.5:13 Then he made him that remaineth have dominion over the nobles among the people: the LORD made me have dominion over the mighty.JDG.5:14 Out of Ephraim was there a root of them against Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, among thy people; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer.JDG.5:15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben there were great thoughts of heart.JDG.5:16 Why abodest thou among the sheepfolds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? For the divisions of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.JDG.5:17 Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and abode in his breaches.JDG.5:18 Zebulun and Naphtali were a people that jeoparded their lives unto the death in the high places of the field.JDG.5:19 The kings came and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money.JDG.5:20 They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.JDG.5:21 The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength.JDG.5:22 Then were the horsehoofs broken by the means of the pransings, the pransings of their mighty ones.JDG.5:23 Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty.JDG.5:24 Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be, blessed shall she be above women in the tent.JDG.5:25 He asked water, and she gave him milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish.JDG.5:26 She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples.JDG.5:27 At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: at her feet he bowed, he fell: where he bowed, there he fell down dead.JDG.5:28 The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?JDG.5:29 Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself,JDG.5:30 Have they not sped? have they not divided the prey; to every man a damsel or two; to Sisera a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers colours of needlework, of divers colours of needlework on both sides, meet for the necks of them that take the spoil?JDG.5:31 So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might. And the land had rest forty years.BUY MY SUPERNATURAL NOVEL!https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Romance-Episode-1-ebook/dp/B07ZRJV6SHDOWNLOAD THE APP!fringeradionetwork.cOM

Deuteronomy 25:17-19

The wilderness isn't wasted; it's where God teaches us to walk by faith. In Exodus 17, Israel discovers that following God doesn't eliminate the battles; it changes how we fight them. As they face Amalek, we see the partnership of obedience and God's sovereignty, the importance of carrying one another, and ultimately a picture pointing to Jesus—the victory we could never achieve on our own. Our rescue didn't stop at the Red Sea.

Peter Leithart, James Bejon, Alastair Roberts, and Jeff Meyers continue their discussion of Judges 3 by examining Ehud's deliverance of Israel from Eglon, king of Moab. They explore the grotesque birth imagery running through Judges, the Exodus and conquest patterns embedded in Ehud's story, the significance of Ehud's left-handedness, and the priestly and sacrificial dimensions of Eglon's death. Along the way they discuss Moab, Ammon, and Amalek as enemies of Israel, the chronology and regional character of the judges, Shamgar's place in the narrative, the graven images near Gilgal, Ehud's movements as a parody of priestly worship, Eglon as a fattened sacrificial calf, the shofar and Jubilee imagery, and Ehud as a new Moses and Joshua who delivers Israel and reconquers the land.

Rabbi Leah Fein reflects on the story of Amalek and the Torah's command to remember, exploring how moments of coldness and despair can challenge our hope. As we journey through Elul toward the High Holy Days, she invites us to consider what has warmed us, what has cooled us, and how we can move forward together with renewed possibility.Each week, a member of the clergy offers their personal perspective on a topic of their choice, such as the week's Torah portion, a Jewish holiday, ritual, custom, or history.

התוכן בסיום פ' בשלח נאמר "מלחמה לה' בעמלק מדור דור". א' הביאורים מדוע אין חיוב דמחיית עמלק בזמן הזה הוא, דחיוב זה הוא רק כאשר כללות האומה דעמלק היא בשלימותה, ועכ"פ במציאותה, ולכן לאחרי ש"עלה סנחריב ובלבל את כל האומות" אין חיוב למחות עמלק אפי' כשיודעים דאיש פרטי זה הוא מעמלק. ועפי"ז יש לבאר כיצד אמר ר' יהושע לגר העמוני "מותר אתה לבוא בקהל" מכיון ד"כבר עלה סנחריב בלבל את כל האומות וכו'", אף שיתכן שבנוגע לאיש פרטי זה ידעו בבירור שהוא מזרע עמון וכו' – דכל זמן שבטלה כללות האומה ממציאותה לא חלים הדינים וההגבלות שישנם על אומה זו. והענין בעבודת האדם: ענינו של עמלק הוא קרירות לעניני תומ"צ – "אשר קרך בדרך", וזהו השרש ומקור לכל דבר בלתי-רצוי. ולכן יש צורך למחות את ענין הקרירות. אמנם זהו דוקא כאשר האומה היא בקיומה, היינו, כאשר האדם הוא קר וקפוא לגמרי, שאז צריך (קודם) להרחיק א"ע לגמרי לצד השני שלא יהי' בו קרירות כלל, אבל אם הקרירות אצלו הוא רק בענין אחד בלבד, אזי אין צריך למחות את הקרירות כ"א לשנותה ולהשתמש בה בנוגע לעניני עוה"ז – שהיחס אליהם תהי' באופן של קרירות.ב' חלקים משיחת יו"ד שבט ה'תשח"י ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=21-08-2026 Synopsis One explanation of why the obligation to wipe out Amalek does not apply in the present era is because the obligation applies only when Amalek exists as a nation. Therefore, the obligation no longer applies after Sancheriv mixed up all the nations (even if it is known that a particular individual is of Amalekite descent). Based on this we can understand how Rabbi Yehoshua told the Ammonite convert that he was permitted to marry into the Jewish people, even though that particular individual might have known with certainty that he descended from Ammon – because once Amon as a whole ceased to exist as a nation, the restrictions applicable to that nation no longer take effect. The lesson in a person's Divine service is as follows: The defining characteristic of Amalek is coldness toward Torah and mitzvos, as the verse states, “…asher karcha baderech…” which also means “…who cooled you off on the way…”. This coldness of Amalek is the root and source of everything undesirable, and it must be wiped out. However, this applies only when Amalek “exists as a nation,” meaning when a person is totally spiritually frozen; in such a case he must conduct himself totally on the opposite extreme, leaving no coldness remaining at all. But if a person is cold in one particular area, and warm in other areas, he does not need to eradicate the quality of coldness entirely; rather, he must redirected the coldness to its proper place – coldness toward worldly matters etc.2 excerpts from sichah of 10 Shevat 5718 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=21-08-2026 לע”נ ר' נח ב"ר יעקב דוד הכהן ע"ה ליום היארצייט שלו ח' אלול. ת.נ.צ.ב.ה.נדבת בנו ר' אברהם דוד הכהן שי' טייטלבוים*לע”נ הרה"ת ר' יוסף צבי ב"ר חיים ע"ה וואלאוויק ליום היארצייט שלו ח' אלול. ת.נ.צ.ב.ה.נדבת בתו מרת חנה ובעלה ר' דוד שיחיו יוניק

Short inspirational insights into the weekly Torah portion and Jewish festivals.

Amalek and Avraham

Why does the Torah command us to remember Miriam's aveira? Miriam loved Moshe. She helped raise him, risked her life to save him, and never intended to demean him. Of all the aveiros in Tanach, why must we remember this one?And why does the Torah describe it in almost exactly the same language it uses for Amalek?In this shmooze, delivered at the first Mishmar of the year in Mevaseret, Rav Burg explores the deeper root of lashon hara: our tendency to understand another person entirely from within our own experience. Miriam knew what nevuah demanded of her and assumed that it must demand the same of Moshe. She saw what Moshe did, but she did not yet see who Moshe was.Sometimes lashon hara begins before a word is spoken. It begins when we make another person small enough to fit inside our own frame.We are all still בַּדֶּרֶךְ—unfinished people, slowly leaving our own Mitzrayim. Another person's unfinishedness is not permission to define him by what we can presently see. It may be precisely the moment when we are being asked to search for his greatness.We are all still בַּדֶּרֶךְ—unfinished people, slowly leaving our own Mitzrayim. Another person's unfinishedness is not permission to define him by what we can presently see. It may be precisely the moment when we are being asked to search for his greatness.

Ammon and Moav did not come out to meet us with bread and water. Amalek attacked us in cold blood, and we are commanded to erase their memory. So why does the Torah bar a convert from Moav from marrying into Klal Yisrael forever, while a sincere convert from Amalek may marry right in, and the descendants of Haman himself learned Torah in Bnei Brak?The answer turns on where a nation's failing actually lives, and it changes what you think is fixable about yourself.I also tell the story of a woman who waited two days outside a Berlin office in the late 1930s. She was told the visas were finished. Everyone in that line heard the same words. What she said before she walked away is the reason her great grandchildren are alive.

Altars in the WildernessIn this episode, we explore the story of Moses and discover that the wilderness is not meant to be our permanent home. Through seasons of struggle, uncertainty, and waiting, God uses the wilderness to teach us how to hear His voice, trust His provision, and prepare us for what comes next.Drawing from Exodus 17 and the altar Moses built after the battle with Amalek, we are reminded that while the wilderness may be a personal journey, the altars we build in it become testimonies for future generations. If you're feeling weary, discouraged, or stuck in a difficult season, this message will encourage you with a simple truth: you're coming out of this, and God is still working in the middle of your wilderness.

Engaging in the spiritual battle to refine the animal soul guarantees divine assistance and enables one to transform worldly energy into spiritual gain. Constructing a ma'akeh (guardrail) is an independent mitzvah requiring a blessing, teaching that whenever one embarks on a new endeavor or a new year, higher spiritual safeguards are required. While the literal eradication of Amalek awaits the Messianic era, every individual is obligated daily to wage a spiritual war against the apathy and coldness of Amalek through the warmth of prayer. Chai Elul introduces the vitality of Chassidus into the month of Elul, enabling sincere regret over the past to coexist harmoniously with the deep joy of returning to Hashem. The final twelve days of the year before Rosh Hashanah are dedicated to a month-by-month accounting focused primarily on one's involvement in the inner dimensions of Torah and disseminating its wellsprings. This class, taught by Rabbi Shais Taub, is based on Ki Seitzei in Likkutei Sichos Vol. 2. Support our work. Please donate! charidy.com/rst

 Even as Israel doubted and tested God, He responded with grace, providing water from the rock and victory over Amalek. These events point forward to Christ, the true Rock who was pierced to give life and the greater Deliverer who defeats the serpent and will bring perfect justice. Rather than testing God as Israel did, we are called to walk by faith, trusting Him in every circumstance.

The Time Traveler’s Quick Guide to Armageddon       Over the last several months, we have done some deep dives into the principalities and powers in high places, the beast kingdoms, and then more particularly, into the kings of the east, another category that intersects with the beast kingdoms, including the Persian bear.   In term of their proto-prophecies in the Torah, we’ve been all over the place because prophecy is cyclical, even though not identical, from generation to generation. When we read of events in the Psalms, Writings, Prophets, and New Testament, the writers expect us to already be familiar with those proto-prophecies.   It was important to establish the earmarks of the battles with the kings of the east in Torah because Adonai declares the end from the beginning. If we want to have the basic understanding of the sixth and seventh bowls of wrath in the end and how they lure in the nations to Armageddon (Har-Megiddo), then we familiarize ourselves with them at the beginning:   “The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates; and its water was dried up, so that the way would be prepared for the kings from the east. And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs; for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of God, the Almighty. (“Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, so that he will not walk about naked and men will not see his shame.”)   And they gathered them together to the place which in Hebrew is called Har-Magedon.   Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying, “It is done.” And there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a great earthquake, such as there had not been since man came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty.” (Re 16:12-18)   Har is “mountain,” and Megiddo is “a place of crowds,” so important in its military situation that it has been destroyed and built over numerous times. It overlooks the Jezreel Valley's flat, agriculturally fertile abundance as well as the road to the Western Sea, or Mediterranean, an excellent place to monitor the coastal trade route that connected continents from ancient times. John prophesies of a final crowd that will be drawn to this ancient hill in the ol’ breadbasket of Israel.   Rather than review some of the many points from our Heaven Shaking the Bear series, I will use them to augment some additional points in this newsletter. You can always go back and access the transcripts (thank you, volunteers!) or videos for little details, such as why even Canaanite kings are considered kings of the east. I'd rather add some new information for your handy time travel guide to Armageddon. We'll be half Marty McFly and half Indiana Jones on our hunt for clues to Armageddon.   Let's take a seat in our time machine, the Word, and travel back to our familiar story in Judges 4-5, the story of Deborah, Barak, and Sisera with his 900 iron chariots. A little clue is in Sisera's 900 chariots. It links the ancient with the future. Nine hundred years (plus some) is the typical age of the pre-flood notables from Adam to Noah. In human history, they are the ancients. It was an era marked by the rebellion of the “sons of Elohim” who provoked human beings to such a violence.   Sisera's chariots were iron, denoting the Roman beast kingdom that is mingled with clay in the feet of his image. In other words, something of Deborah's story will establish a template for understanding the final defeat of the Red One, who appears in Revelation as the chosen steed for the Great Harlot Babylon. The nine-hundred-year era of the days of Noah and its violence will link to the end time of Armageddon.   Every time I see the word “Babylonian,” my mind says, “babaloney.” Don't know why. But ick.   Okay, now let's power up the time machine. We need to visit Abraham's time during the battle for Sodom among the kings of the east, the Covenant Between the Pieces, and then visit Moses in the wilderness.   Ready? Push the Abraham button. It might say, Avram, but you'll recognize it. Here we go.   Wait, wait. First, tape a copy of Judges 4-5 and a map of Israel on your steering wheel. We'll need to compare what we see with the first battle of Armageddon that Deborah fought against Sisera to our past future locations.   Okay, here we come, Abrahamic period. We are landing among the four kings of the east, led by Amraphel (perhaps Nimrod), who marched through and defeated territories east of the Jordan. The five kings of the Sodom coalition have quit paying their taxes, so the four kings are on their way to collect plus interest.   Even though those cities of Sodom are situated mostly to the east of the Salt Sea, after the four kings first march and defeat cities east of the Jordan and in the highlands of Bashan, they are continuing as far as the Negev near Kadesh, En-Mishpat, and Hazazon-Tamar. By bypassing the Sodom coalition cities, the four kings are giving the five kings time to muster before the four kings turn back east and meet them near the Salt Sea in battle. Do you see this? Inexplicably, Sodom's five kings are falling into tar pits! Shouldn't they know about those tar pits? After all, this is their territory! How strange!   And there goes Lot and his family as captives. And there…someone escapes and runs to tell Abraham. Okay, we don't have to follow them up to Damascus. We know how this ends. Check your Judges 4-5 Scriptures and map. They're taped to your steering wheel, remember?   Something similar happened to Sisera's iron chariot. Like Pharaoh drove his chariots into the Reed Sea and there his chariot wheels became “confused,” so Sisera drove his chariots into the mud of the Kishon, which he should have known about because he was a Canaanite.   Although Pharaoh was not a “king of the east,” he is the dragon, and his authority was passed to them. This suggests that our soggy bottom boys are experiencing a Divine intervention, not just a human battle. Something flies in their brains, stings them, and causes confusion…perhaps the tzirah, the supernatural hornet of Moses and Joshua?   The tzirah went before the armies of Israel, and it helped Moses conquer on the east side of the Jordan and Joshua on the west side of the Jordan. It first causes confusion, and then it cuts off root and fruit. It is the supernatural bug described as being released from the King of Abaddon in Revelation.   Not so coincidentally, Deborah's name means “bee” in Hebrew, and “hornet” in Aramaic. The root of her name is “word,” as in Devarim, the fifth book of the Torah and perhaps the most apocalyptic since it is the little scroll of Torah. There was a reason Barak would not take his soldiers into battle without her; she represented the Divine power of the Word going before them!   How does Deborah know to tell Barak that he needs exactly 10,000 soldiers mustered from a place named “Kedesh”?   Deborah judged Israel under the “palm tree of Deborah.” A palm tree is a tamar:   “She used to sit under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim; and the sons of Israel came up to her for judgment (mishpat ????????????).”   Can you see Deborah studying the scrolls of Torah? Those scrolls are rolling her right into the time of Avraham, and she sees the conquests of Moses and Joshua in the wilderness, such as Amalek. She recognizes the conquests of the four kings as having the same names that are in the hill country of Ephraim near Har-Megiddo: From Kadesh to Kedesh. From Hazazon-Tamar to the tamar providing her shade to read the scroll. From En-Mishpat to her job rendering mishpat for Israel.   We know Deborah has spent time scroll-rolling back to Abraham's time because she mentions something specific in her Judges Five song. The Song of Deborah mentions the courage of the tribe of Ephraim in the defeat of Sisera's chariots:   “From Ephraim, those whose root is in Amalek came down…”   If you need to, program in “Amalek in the Wilderness,” and travel there to see a bit of the battle. This “root in Amalek” is thought to refer to the wilderness battle under Moses in which the Ephraimite Joshua defeated Amalek. The tribe of Ephraim is rooted in its leadership in the victory in the wilderness in Israel's first encounter with Amalek.   Deborah knows Amalek is enticed to attack when its opponent looks weak, so that gives her a Divine strategy in enticing this king of the east Sisera to his Armageddon. Okay, now travel back to the battle between the four kings and the five kings. The four kings of the east also conquered Amalek before turning back to battle the five kings of Sodom.   While the battle continues, let's return to this question (you already know how that battle ends): How does Deborah know to tell Barak that he needs exactly 10,000 soldiers mustered from a place named “Kedesh”?   We've only partially answered it. And our answer is based on the battle between bad kings of the east vs worse kings of the east. We don't want to take this as the only source of Deborah's inspired strategy to lure Sisera to Har-Megiddo. Deborah is scrolling through the rolls of the Torah, and she must have some even better prophecies on which she bases her battle with Sisera. Let's leave these guys for Avraham to deal with and travel forward and back to Deborah's palm tree for more clues.   Yes, time travelers. Next week we'll go back to the future with Deborah and spend some more time with Avraham and Moses. There must be a connection between Deborah's forty years of peace in Israel and Moses' forty years in the wilderness. Deborah has the handy traveler's guide to help her map it all out. We'll see her secret of selecting 10,000, and we might even take a peek inside Yael's tent to find that she knew the Torah, and it guided her hand when she drove the tent peg into Sisera's head.   Oh, dear, oh dread. Sandals muddy like heavy lead. Some yogurt he was fed. Then he went to bed. Now Sisera is dead. A tent peg's in his head.   Okay, Deborah is better at composing songs than I am. I gave it a shot. Roll your time travel machines to Judges 4-5, and we'll see you next week.   Please SUBSCRIBE to our newsletter to get new teachings.

What are you fighting under? This weekend Pastor Joaquin Pardo continued our MOSES: Live No Lies series with a message about how God's people fight spiritual battles.Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses' hands grew weary, so Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side. So his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. And Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his people with the sword.Exodus 17:11-13Israel had already been delivered from Egypt, but their journey still included opposition. They were no longer fighting for freedom, they were fighting from freedom.The same is true for us. Jesus has already won the decisive victory over sin and death, but every believer still faces spiritual opposition.1) You have to fight.Joshua didn't get to choose whether Amalek showed up. His decision was whether he would engage in the battle. Similarly, we don't choose whether spiritual warfare is real. We cannot experience victory while refusing to fight. We must stop allowing fear, shame, temptation, bitterness, and compromise to bully us into accepting a life God never intended for us. We must decide in our hearts that the enemy does not get another inch.2) Fight faithfully. Fight prayerfully.Joshua fought in the valley, but the battle's outcome was connected to what Moses was doing on the mountain. The sword mattered, but the sword was not the source of victory. Connecting the Lord to the battle was. We do the same today through prayer. Prayer does not make God powerful. Prayer reminds us who is powerful. You cannot win spiritual battles using only physical strategies. Practical obedience matters, but spiritual battles require spiritual dependence.3) Your fight is my fight.When Moses grew tired, Aaron and Hur noticed and moved toward him. They did not wait for Moses to ask for help. They lifted the hands he could no longer lift himself. Victory in the Kingdom of God is never meant to be experienced alone. The church should be filled with people who notice the hurting, the weary, the lonely, and the discouraged and then move into action.4) Fight with The Lord as your banner.When the battle was over, Joshua didn't take the credit. Moses didn't take the credit. Aaron and Hur didn't take the credit. Moses built an altar and called it Jehovah-Nissi —The Lord Is My Banner.A banner gave soldiers identity, direction, courage, and hope in the confusion of battle. When they became afraid or disoriented, they looked toward the banner and remembered that they were not fighting alone.Our Banner is Jesus. Our Banner was lifted up on a cross. He bled, died, rose again, and now reigns in victory. The battle may still be real tomorrow, but don't spend your life staring at Amalek.Lift your eyes to your Banner. The Lord is our Banner.

Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. 23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king. 1 Samuel 13:12 (KJV) 12 Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the LORD: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering. 1 Samuel 13:13-14 (KJV) 13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the LORD thy God, which he commanded thee: for now would the LORD have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever. 14 But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the LORD commanded thee. 1 Samuel 15:3 (KJV) 3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass. 1 Samuel 15:9 (KJV) 9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly. Isaiah 1:19 (KJV) 19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: John 15:14 (KJV) 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. 1 John 3:23 (KJV) 23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. Acts 4:12 (KJV) 12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. James 1:25 (KJV) 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. Romans 6:16 (KJV) 16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? Luke 11:28 (KJV) 28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

King Saul was highly successful in destroying the Amalekites, but we note what Samuel said to him (1 Sam 15 v.1-3) before he did this!  After giving him the reasons why the Amalekites should be destroyed, Samuel tells him, “Now go and strike Amalek, and devote to destruction all that they have.  Do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.”    In v.7 to 9 we read “And Saul defeated Amalek … and devoted to destruction all the people … But Saul and the people spared … the best of the sheep and oxen … and all that was good …. All that was despised and worthless they devoted to destruction.”    What a valuable lesson there is in the LORD's reaction to Saul's selective obedience to his commands.  Samuel is sent to express God's anger at his failure to obey him properly, he tells Saul, “Why then did you not obey the voice of the LORD?  Why did you pounce on the spoil  and do what was evil in the sight of the LORD?” [v.19]  Saul claims in reply, “I have obeyed the voice of the LORD” [v.20], but he only did so partly.  His claim is that the animals were saved to offer as sacrifices – and of course, as a result, Saul and the people enjoyed much feasting! The phrase “the voice of the LORD” should cause us to meditate – they did not hear his actual voice – and neither do we!  We have his word – that is “the voice of the LORD” for us.Then Samuel makes a very vital point, “Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD?” [v.22]  What a clear and vital lesson this is for us – it dovetails in with Isaiah's message at the start of today's ch. 59.  “Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save … but your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.”     If there were prophets like Samuel and Isaiah around today what kind of message would they give?  Let us not pick and choose only the parts of God's word we like – to believe and obey – let us live so that we can in truth say in our prayers – and on THAT day, “I have obeyed…”

Exodus 17 reminds us that God's people never outgrow their need for Him. As Israel battles Amalek, victory is tied not merely to Joshua's courage in the valley but to Moses' uplifted hands on the mountain. The passage exposes our instinct toward self-reliance and shows that true strength is found in dependence on God and in the support of His people. Ultimately, it points to Jesus, the true and better Moses, who continually intercedes for us and has declared war on sin, Satan, and death. Join us as we discover why dependence is not weakness but the pathway to lasting victory.

The crouching stance of the lion in Bilaam's prophecy demonstrates that even when subjected to the physical constraints of exile, the Jewish people maintain an untamed, independent spiritual nature that is periodically reinforced by unmistakable, nature-shattering miracles. The deceptive spiritual authority claimed by the negative forces of Bilaam and Amalek is completely neutralized when a person internalizes a parallel matrix of active awe and love of Hashem. The psychological argument from Laban that one must temporarily disconnect from G-d and compromise spiritual values to achieve material career success is defeated by implementing a spiritual guardrail, which transforms mundane daily work into a holy ascent rooted in the absolute surrender of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs. This class, taught by Rabbi Shais Taub, is based on Balak in Likkutei Sichos Vol. 2.

We continue with the second and final Shiur for Parshat Chukat- We learn about AMalke attacking after the clouds left and wars with giants and the fear of Moshe, Enjoy

You're listening to the Greater Hope Church podcast, rooted in the gospel, growing in community, and shining among people. This sermon from Exodus 17 explores Jehovah Nissi — "the Lord is my banner" — recounting Israel's battle with Amalek and how God's presence secured victory. Pastor Stan McMahan explains the three enemies Christians face (the world, the flesh, and the devil), calls believers to rely on spiritual armor and one another, and points to Christ's cross and crown as the banner of our ultimate hope and triumph. Exodus 17:8-16 A young lawyer witnessed a battle in 1814 . . . A Call to Arms Why must God's people be prepared for conflict? A Staff in the Hand How do God's people prevail in conflict? A Banner over the People What is our encouragement in conflict?

The U.S. House just voted 215-208 to invoke the War Powers Act and force an end to America's illegal war for Israel in Iran. Four Republicans — Thomas Massie, Brian Fitzpatrick, Tom Barrett, and Warren Davidson — joined every Democrat and told the White House the slaughter needs to stop.

Ikar hateshuva — shyishma bizyono yidom v'yishtok. Hear your humiliation. Be still. That is the way back. Shiur 2 in the weekly Torah series on the Lost Princess of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov, at the Sephardic Center on Avenue P in Brooklyn. With R' Nachman Fried. This shiur picks up right where Shiur 1 left off — and walks through the spiritual lull between Shavuos and Rosh Hashana, the moment the words slipped from the King's mouth, and the moment the viceroy stood up uninvited and asked, give me a servant, give me a horse, give me money for the journey. The Rebbe is teaching us, in every detail, who the tzaddik is — and who we are. What we cover: The Rebbe is for everyone — vos art es mir az einer bentcht zich b'kavana un nisht visen az es iz fun mir. What does it bother me if someone bentches with kavana and doesn't know it's from me? The Rebbe never cared if you became his chassid. He cared if you connected to Hashem. The post-Shavuos void — why the Torah deliberately leaves us with no Yom Tov between Shavuos and Rosh Hashana. The trigger we're trying to distract from is underneath the boredom — and Hashem put it there on purpose. The three beliefs — Hashem, the tzaddik, and (the one the yetzer hara works hardest to break) YOU. The ladybug-in-the-pool story. You are relevant. You can't make peace with terrorists — my father olav hashalom, the yetzer hara's real address (not Ibiza — your head), and why the doubt about your own relevance is the yesod of Amalek. Ego = Edging G-d Out — how every time we let our strength protect our weakness, we lay down another iron layer between us and the chelek Eloka mima'al inside. The avoda — yishma bizyono, yidom v'yishtok. Hear your humiliation. Stay quiet. Stay present. That is the kli the light is waiting to fill. The story moves — the broiges, the words that slipped from the King's mouth (vnishtguter zol dir nemen), the lost princess vanishing, and the moment the viceroy stood up without being asked. That uninvited amad is the tzaddik. That uninvited amad is the tzaddik in you. Compassion needs Da'as — feeling someone's pain is rachmanus. Acting on it is l'rachem. The bridge between them is da'as — and da'as is what lets you see the godliness inside the table, the chair, the meshulach at your door. Why he asked for a servant, a horse, and money — chavruta + nefesh habahamis (to ride, not to be ridden) + parnassa for the road. We were the viceroy. We agreed to come down here. We said yes. The action plan — bli neder, one moment of humiliation this week. With your wife if you're married. With a partner. In business. One time. Hear it. Stay. Don't run. That's how the chomah stays standing and the Lost Princess can be heard again. —

Amalek's Endgame: The Greater Israel Project, Secret Maps, and America's 30-Year Blood Debt! Today we're going full conspiracy time—raw, unfiltered, truth bombs on the Gaza slaughter, the Oct 7 “allowed to happen” setup, Amalek code words, tribunal theater, and the real endgame: Greater Israel's kingdom rising on Palestinian graves and American tax dollars. Folks, we've covered AIPAC's iron grip on DC in the last episode—how they own primaries, bury critics, and turn Congress into a blank check for Tel Aviv. Today we tie it straight to Smotrich and Netanyahu's maps, the Yinon Plan, the Clean Break blueprint, and why every US war in the Middle East for 30 years smells like Greater Israel prep work.  Web Site: www.DontTreadonMerica.com https://linktr.ee/DontTreadonMerica Email the show: Donq@donttreadonmerica.com DTOM Store (Promo code DTOM for 10% off) Sponsors: www.makersmark.com www.NordVPN.com  Promo Code: DTOM www.alppouch.com/DTOM www.dubby.gg Promo code: DTOM Social Media:   Don't Tread on Merica TV   DTOM on Facebook   DTOM on X    DTOM on TikTok    DontTreadonMericaTV   DTOM on Instagram    DTOM on YouTube

“The Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.” (Exodus 17:16.)The battles with giants begin.

"The Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.” (Exodus 17:16.)Israel begins to face giants... and so do we.

Daily Dose of Hope May 19, 2026   Name of God:  Jehovah Nissi – The Lord Is My Banner Scripture:  Exodus 17:8-16, Isaiah 11:10-12, Psalm 20:5-7, John 12:32   Prayer:  Holy God, I come before You today acknowledging You as Jehovah Nissi, the Lord my Banner. When the battles of life surround me and the enemy's tactics seem overwhelming, I do not have to fight in my own strength. I look to You as my defender and my source of strength.  In Jesus' Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the New Hope Church daily Bible reading plan.  We are currently in a study on the names of God in the Old Testament.  As we have mentioned, in the ancient world, names held a great deal of significance, indicating aspects of someone's character and purpose.  Certainly, it is the same with God.  God has many different names, all of which demonstrate one aspect of His character.  Today, we are focusing on Jehovah Nissi.   Jehovah Nissi (or more accurately YHWH Nissi) means the Lord is my Banner.  Nissi comes from the Hebrew word Nes (nês), meaning something lifted up as a standard or banner.  A standard is a flag or rallying point during battle, while a banner was usually set on top of a mountain to show people where to assemble and it flew over the warriors as they fought.   In Exodus 17:8-16, we find an excellent portrayal of Jehovah Nissi fighting for His people; it's also the only place in Scripture specifically referencing the name Jehovah Nissi. The Amalekites, an enemy of Israel, came to fight at Rephidim. Joshua gathered some men while Moses stood on top of the hill with the Lord's staff along with his brother, Aaron, and friend, Hur. Moses held the staff over the men fighting below. "While Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, but whenever he put his hand down, Amalek prevailed."  So Aaron and Hur helped by supporting Moses' arms so the staff wouldn't lower, and Joshua and his men defeated the Amalekites.   In Exodus 17:15-16, Scripture reads, "And Moses built an altar and named it, The Lord Is My Banner." He said, "Indeed, my hand is lifted up toward the Lord's throne." Moses knew that God was the one who ensured their victory and he wanted to make sure everyone else did too. Jehovah Nissi was the source of this victory, while using Moses, Joshua, Aaron, Hur and the staff. Elsewhere in the Bible His "banner" is an illustration of His protection and salvation.  Just as banners and flags today identify nations and groups and those who belong to them, God's banner identifies those who belong to Him.  Here are a few illustrations: Psalm 60:4, "You have raised a banner to . . . save us and help us with your right hand, that those you love may be delivered." Psalm 20:5 "We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners!" Isaiah 11:10,12, Speaking of the Messiah who was to come, Isaiah prophesied, "In that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, who shall stand as a banner to the people...He will set up a banner for the nations."   What significance does this divine name, Jehovah Nissi, have for Christ-followers?  First, it points to how God does not leave us to fight our battles in our own strength.  I'm often praying to God to fight my battles for me, because so often, we simply have no control.  But God does.  Second, I think we learn to remember and celebrate the way God has led us and the victories He has provided. Moses built an altar.  I don't think we need to build something physical but we do need to remember what God has done for us.  Remembering God's faithfulness in the past builds our own faith and trust in the present. Take a moment and pray to Jehovah Nissi.  What battles do you need God to fight for you right now?  What battles has He fought for you the past?  Have you celebrated those victories? Blessings, Pastor Vicki      

Noam Dworman and Periel Aschenbrand are joined by return-guest, Dr. Feroze Sidhwa, for a wide-ranging debate about truth, propaganda, evidence, starvation and the Israel-Gaza war. The conversation focuses on John Mearsheimer's claims about October 7, whether public intellectuals should lose credibility when they make unsupported accusations, disputed casualty reporting in Gaza and the role political bias plays in shaping what people choose to believe. Dr. Feroze Sidhwa is a general, trauma, and critical care surgeon in California. He is also a humanitarian surgeon, having worked most extensively in Palestine, but also in Ukraine, Haiti, Zimbabwe, and Burkina Faso. He has written and spoken extensively about surgical humanitarian work, the United States' role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the political consequences of medical relief work.

The conversation centers on one of the most debated topics in biblical archaeology:Could the real Mount Sinai actually be in Saudi Arabia?Drawing from Scripture, archaeology, geography, ancient petroglyphs, and firsthand exploration, Ken and Jo unpack the growing evidence suggesting that the biblical Mount Sinai—also called Mount Horeb—may be located east of the Gulf of Aqaba in ancient Arabia rather than on the traditional Sinai Peninsula in Egypt. From the altar of the golden calf…to boundary markers described in Exodus…to the split rock at Horeb…to petroglyphs depicting Moses with raised hands during the battle with Amalek…this episode explores how modern discoveries appear to align remarkably with the biblical narrative. The episode also highlights:The hospitality they experienced in Saudi ArabiaThe role of Scripture in guiding archaeological inquiryWhy Paul's statement in Galatians 4:25 mattersThe spiritual significance of rediscovering biblical placesAnd how these discoveries reinforce confidence in the reliability of God's WordThe central message:The Bible is not mythology detached from history—God's Word stands up to examination, geography, and time.How to Engage with Orbis:- Check out Ken's book,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ On the Road with the Holy Spirit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Partner with Orbis Financially⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-⁠⁠⁠⁠ Are you interested in learning about Holy Spirit-led ministry?

You've seen the Hollywood version of the Red Sea parting, but do you know the spiritual reason God led Israel into a dead end? Sometimes the "wrong direction" in the eyes of the world is the only way to see the "salvation of the Lord." Summary: In this deep dive into Exodus 14–18, we follow Israel out of Egypt and into the refining fires of the wilderness. We explore how Jehovah transforms a group of former slaves into a covenant people through trials of hunger, thirst, and war. The Red Sea Crossing: We analyze why God told Israel to "stand still" and see His power, and how the cloud that gave light to Israel was darkness to the Egyptians. The Wilderness of Sin: We address the "murmuring" of Israel and the miracle of Manna. We learn that God provides "daily bread" to teach us daily dependence on Him. Water from the Rock: We look at the symbolism of the smitten rock at Rephidim and how it points directly to the Living Water offered by Jesus Christ. Sustaining the Prophet: We study the battle with Amalek and the vital role of Aaron and Hur in holding up Moses' hands. We discuss how "sustaining" our leaders is an active, physical labor. The Wisdom of Jethro: We conclude with the organizational breakthrough in Exodus 18. Jethro teaches Moses (and us) that "this thing is too heavy for thee," showing the power of delegation and shared responsibility in the kingdom of God. Call-to-Action: Are you currently facing a "Red Sea" with Pharaoh's army behind you and nowhere to go? How has the Lord provided "manna" for you during a lean season of your life?

Stew exposes the raw truth: Israel blew up the US-Iran ceasefire before the ink was dry because they still have kids to slaughter and land to steal in Lebanon, Gaza, and beyond. Trump bragged about a 10-point Iranian peace plan, then immediately backpedaled like the puppet he is once Netanyahu snapped his fingers.   Ohio gubernatorial candidate Casey Putsch joins Stew to tear apart higher education consolidation scams, data centers bulldozing Ohio farmland for corporate profits, NRA leadership selling out gun rights, and why real America First puts Ohio workers and families first—not imported political parasites and out-of-state elites. Peymon Mottahedeh from Freedom Law School drops the bomb: There is NO constitutional law requiring Americans to file or pay federal income taxes. It's a 100+ year voluntary shakedown that's funding Israel's wars, war crimes, and Greater Israel agenda while turning Americans into tax slaves and Amalek.   This April only: $3 off your first month on Locals ✝️ A reminder of the 3rd day and the power of resurrection.

→ Watch on YouTube → Detailed Show Notes → Timestamps: (00:00) A brief overview of these chapters.(02:16) The children of Israel murmur and complain in the wilderness. As a comparison, Nephi's trust in God blesses his wilderness experience.(08:42) The Book of Mormon gives added insight as to why murmuring is such a problem. The key to happiness is to remember the greatness of God in both pain and prosperity.(19:07) A possible location of Sinai is discussed as evidence of historicity in the book of Exodus. Revelation came to Moses “when he was on the move.”(23:26) The night crossing of the Red Sea can represent Jesus conquering chaos in our lives. Psalm 74 also addresses these themes.(29:00) The children of Israel sing the Song of the Sea and rejoice in their deliverance.(36:40) The beginning and end of the Exodus story has women standing as witnesses to the miraculous. Miriam is there at Moses' birth and at the Song of the Sea.(42:46) Some approaches to Biblical scholarship may be helpful in understanding why the Bible has some traditions that cast Miriam in a bad light.(46:58) Miriam dies at Kadesh and the water dries up. Miriam as a symbol of the women in the New Testament named Mary who witnessed Jesus' birth, death, and resurrection.(51:07) The bitter water is sweetened with a tree. The Savior heals us too.(54:59) The Lord rains manna from heaven and sends quail for meat to feed the children of Israel for 40 years. God will take care of us in the deserts of our lives.(1:02:07) Moses smites a rock and water gushes forth. Jewish theologians over the years had a tradition that the rock at the beginning and at the end of Exodus was the same rock. Paul worked this tradition into his discussion of Christ, and so to him, the rock was Jesus.(1:07:27) Amalek battles with the Israelites and Moses' hands are held up so that Israel may be victorious. We sustain the prophet and our local leaders, and by so doing, we hold up their hands that hang down.(1:10:22) An invitation to remember what God has done for us.(1:13:23) Jethro counsels Moses to delegate certain tasks. Delegation gives opportunities for growth. → For more of Bryce Dunford’s podcast classes, click here. → Enroll in Institute → YouTube → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → Amazon Music → Facebook The post Ep 367 | Exodus 14-18, Come Follow Me 2026 (April 13-19) appeared first on LDS Scripture Teachings.

There have been some disturbing things happening in the world lately, and some of the people most heavily involved in those things are invoking even more disturbing parts of the Bible as a rallying call. When world leaders remind us of biblical genocide when they go to war, you know we're in trouble. So this week, we're discussing Amalek, and the Israelite encounters with the people who bear his name. There is no love lost between the Amalekites and the Israelites. As a matter of fact, Jewish people to this day vow to remember and NOT remember Amalek. So what was so awful about the Amalekites that they stand out as worse than the myriad other enemies of ancient Israel? And what did they do to deserve the total destruction that was ordered by God? Then we're covering some spurious apologetic ground. If you've ever listened to a Christian apologist for more than a few minutes, you've likely heard the idea that "No one would die for a lie." This idea is either preceded or followed by descriptions of the horrific deaths endured by the disciples of Jesus. The problem is that most of those deaths aren't recorded in any books in the Bible. So what are the stories of the deaths of the apostles, and where do they come from? ---- For early access to an ad-free version of every episode of Data Over Dogma, exclusive content, and the opportunity to support our work, please consider becoming a monthly patron at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/DataOverDogma⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠      Follow us on the various social media places: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/DataOverDogmaPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.twitter.com/data_over_dogma⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Have you ordered Dan McClellan's New York Times bestselling book ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Bible Says So⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ yet???
