Podcasts about Exodus

What if the Bible was written with deep structural patterns designed to echo across generations—economically and theologically? In this riveting episode, Dr. Joshua Berman joins Dru Johnson to reveal how literary design, verbal repetition, and cultural continuity make the Bible not a patchwork, but a carefully composed unity. Through examples ranging from Genesis and Judges to Exodus and Samuel, Berman shows how the same words, images, and narrative arcs—like “sword and bow” or reversal of blessing—carry deliberate echoes and layered meanings across the text. They also explore gendered storytelling in Exodus 2, the function of poetry in biblical prose, and why embedded songs like Exodus 15 don't contradict the narrative—they expand it. Berman explains how ancient readers trained in repetition and orality would have caught these cues instantly, and why modern readers miss them. This episode is also a personal one, as Berman shares how leading Jewish tours in Egypt deepened his faith in the biblical text—and even led to unexpected moments of hope across religious and national divides. This is a masterclass in reading Scripture deeply—linguistically, literarily, and spiritually. We are listener supported.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, host Hunter guides us through a meaningful journey in Scripture, as we open the pages of Ezra chapters 7 and 8, and finish with Luke 20. As Hunter reads and reflects, we follow Ezra leading the Israelites out of Babylon—a profound echo of the Exodus led by Moses—as God's gracious hand brings his people home after years of exile. We'll also hear Jesus challenging religious leaders in Jerusalem, teaching about divine authority, true obedience, and the promise of resurrection. Throughout the episode, Hunter explores the powerful theme of exodus—moving from captivity to freedom, from the kingdoms of this world into God's kingdom through Christ. We're invited to see how God's mercy and deliverance reach across generations, guiding us homeward today just as surely as they did for Ezra and the Israelites. Settle in as we listen, pray, and are reminded that God's gracious hand is still upon his people, leading us toward his love, mercy, and true life. Let's set our hearts homeward together on this October 7th edition of the Daily Radio Bible. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Ezra is leading an Exodus. As Moses led the people of Israel into the Promised Land, Ezra is leading an exodus out of Babylon. He's going home. For 70 long years, the Israelites were held captive in Babylon. Now the tide's turned. God has once again shown himself strong, and the kings of the day are now bowing in deference to the God of Israel. They're actually paying for their subjects to leave. The theme of Exodus is perhaps the most profound and significant theme that we read throughout all of Scripture. God is performing a grand exodus – He's taking people from the kingdoms of this world into the kingdom of our God in Christ. When God's gracious hand of deliverance is on his people, nothing can stop him. It may take some time—maybe 70 long years—but when the tide of God's mercy has shifted, when the flood comes in, there's nothing that will stop it. The gracious hand of our God was always upon Ezra, but now it is evident for all to see. Ezra was trusting. He was faithful. He was obedient, long before King Artaxerxes had his change of mind and heart. Jesus, too, is leading an Exodus. But he is far greater than Moses. He's far greater than Ezra. And God's gracious hand is certainly on his Son, Jesus—the Father exclaimed on multiple occasions: “This is my Son, whom I love.” People of every tribe and nation and language from every place on planet Earth are being led out and onto an exodus into life. In him, the destination is ultimately the same for all of us. We're all headed back to that new Jerusalem in God's new kingdom with our new King, our Liberator, our Jesus. Greater than Moses, greater than Ezra—He's leading us back home. There may be days of great confusion and heartache, and lots of questions along the way, but rest assured: we are headed home. God is leading this exodus. And as we read in this story, they volunteered to go—it was open and available for everyone to return. So sign yourself up today, to walk with him as we walk with him. God's gracious hand is upon the Son, and we are in him. So that gracious hand is upon you too. And this becomes more and more evident in our lives the more we set our hearts toward home. So let's set our hearts homeward. Be swept up in the tide of mercy and love that is yours today. And know his gracious hand is upon you. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul today. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

The Book of Exodus

The Wilderness E6 — In the Genesis and Exodus wilderness stories, God is present with his people, testing them and teaching them to listen to his voice. Most of the people fail to trust God there, but finally, in 1 Samuel, we meet a character who can succeed in the desolate place, David. In this episode, Jon and Tim explore David's wilderness stories in 1 Samuel 24-26, finding a human who will trust God for provision and listen to his voice.CHAPTERSRecap of the Theme and Setup for David (0:00-17:00)David's Successes and Tests in the Wilderness (17:00-32:00)David's Test With Nabal and Abigail (32:00-43:58)Abigail Saves the Day (43:58-1:05:12)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESYou can view annotations for this episode—plus our entire library of videos, podcasts, articles, and classes—in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Walk In The City ft.

At the very end of Moshe's life, he, like Jacob before him, blesses the tribes. When Jacob was about to pass, he blessed his sons, now Moshe is blessing the tribes that those sons spawned. These blessings were nor random, but very targeted blessings for each tribe so that they know what their particular tribe needs to contribute. In this podcast - the final Parsha Podcast of the seventh cycle of the Parsha Podcast, we examine the blessing given to the tribe of Levi. What we discover can materially transform our lives.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

In his sermon on the first of Jesus's seven "I am" statements, Pastor Matt explores the profound metaphor in John 6:35 where Jesus declares, "I am the bread of life." He connects this statement to how God provided manna for the Israelites in Exodus 16, showing how Jesus fulfills and surpasses this Old Testament foreshadowing. While the manna met temporary physical needs for one nation, Jesus as the bread of life meets eternal spiritual needs for the entire world at the cost of His life. Pastor Matt clarifies that when Jesus speaks of "eating His flesh," He's not suggesting cannibalism but using a metaphor for faith. To feed on Jesus means to believe in His death and resurrection, nourish ourselves with God's Word, draw close to the Father through prayer, and obediently live out His commands. In our modern context, we hunger for identity, security, meaning, and love—needs that only Jesus can truly satisfy, not success, relationships, pleasure, or distractions. Just as the Israelites gathered manna daily, we must be nourished by Jesus every day.

In this episode of the Everyday Judaism Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses Siman 134 of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, covering the laws of building a sukkah, timed with the preparation period between Yom Kippur (September 20, 2025) and Sukkot (September 25, 2025). He emphasizes the mitzvah's spiritual significance as a divine “hug” and a fresh start post-Yom Kippur. Key points include:Sukkot's Timing and Purpose: The days between Yom Kippur and Sukkot are “free days” for preparation (building sukkahs, selecting four species), keeping one too busy to sin. Sukkot, called “Yom HaRishon” (first day), is the first opportunity for sin post-Yom Kippur, making it a time to establish new, righteous habits. Dwelling in the sukkah mirrors the Clouds of Glory that protected the Israelites in the desert, symbolizing divine protection and closeness.Halachot of Sukkah Construction (Siman 134):Halacha 1: It's a mitzvah to build the sukkah immediately after Yom Kippur, even on Erev Shabbos (e.g., September 21, 2025). Choose a clean, stable location (e.g., driveway, not mud). Everyone, even dignitaries, should personally participate in building, though the Shehechiyanu blessing is covered by the Kiddush on Sukkot's first night.Halacha 2: Beautify the sukkah with nice furnishings (e.g., tablecloths, artwork), as one would a home, to honor the mitzvah and the spiritual “guests” (Ushpizin: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, etc.). Walls must be sturdy, with at least two and a half walls, symbolizing Hashem's hug.Halacha 3–4: Schach must grow from the ground, be detached, and not be susceptible to ritual impurity (tumah). Bamboo mats or tree branches are ideal; pre-cut wood slats or utensils (e.g., ladders, shovels) are invalid. Consult a rabbi if proper schach is unavailable. Supports for schach can be tumah-susceptible items (e.g., metal) after the fact, though stringencies avoid metal entirely.Halacha 5: Schach must provide more shade than sunlight on the floor. If sunlight exceeds shade or there's a three-tefach (handbreadth) gap, the sukkah is invalid. Thick schach blocking all stars is still kosher, but if it prevents rain penetration, it's like a permanent roof and invalid.Halacha 6–7: A sukkah needs at least three walls. Invalid schach (e.g., four tefachim wide, about 16 inches) can split a three-walled sukkah, invalidating it. A space less than four amos (eight feet) from a wall is considered a “bent wall,” valid as part of the sukkah, but don't sit under it. Schach under tree branches (attached to the ground) is invalid, even if cut later, unless lifted and replaced for the sukkah's sake.Halacha 8–9: For built-in sukkahs with retractable roofs, open the roof before placing schach. A sukkah doesn't require a mezuzah if temporary, but a permanent sukkah (e.g., part of a house) does. A borrowed sukkah is valid, but a stolen one or one in a public domain is not, unless no alternative exists.Halacha 10–12: Don't cut schach from others' trees without permission. Building a sukkah during Chol HaMoed is permitted. Sukkah materials (walls, schach) are designated for the mitzvah and can't be repurposed (e.g., as a toothpick) until after Simchas Torah.Halacha 13–15: Don't step on or degrade sukkah materials post-holiday, as they were used for a mitzvah, like tzitzis. Don't engrave Torah verses on food decorations (e.g., gourds), as they'll rot, disrespecting the verses. On Erev Sukkos, avoid eating bread after midday to enter the sukkah with an appetite.

When we face uncertainty, when life gets hard, when things happen that we can’t explain, we’ll often ask: Where is God? But every Christian should realize they are never alone. Jesus is with you. Pastor Greg Laurie shares more in this message. Notes: Focus verse - Genesis 22 Matthew 28:20 (NKJV)“Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Psalm 23:4 (NKJV)“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil; For You are with me;Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” Sometimes our feelings need to catch up with our faith. #1 Joseph was in a prison cell. He probably felt all alone and abandoned. He was there, not because he broke a law, but because he kept one—God’s law. God was in the prison cell with Joseph. Genesis 50:20 (NKJV)"You meant it for evil; but God meant it for good—to save many people alive.” #2 Let’s go from a prison to a palace and think of Esther. Queen Vashti, to her credit, refused. She would not be humiliated or objectified, not even by the king. Vashti is a role model for young girls and women today.Don’t ever let some guy reduce you to a mere object. You are a woman made in the image God. If you present yourself cheaply, don’t expect to be valued royally. A man needs to value you for who you are on the inside, not only the outside. The most attractive thing is to be a godly and principled woman. Through the providence of God, Esther became the queen of Persia. God is always at work in the life of the believer, every hour of every day. God is now here! Providence comes from the Latin prōvidentia; “pro” meaning "before" or "ahead of time” and “videntia” meaning “to see.” God is in control. #3 The story of Israel at the Red Sea.They were between a rock and a hard place. Exodus 14:13–14 (NLT) Exodus 14:13–14 (NLT) Colossians 1:16–17 Exodus 14:19 A Christophany is an appearance of Jesus in the Old Testament. John 8:56–58 (NKJV)"Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad." John 8:56–58 (NKJV)Then the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?" John 8:56–58 (NKJV)Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM!" Luke 24:27 The disciples on the Emmaus Road were literally listening to God incarnate describe His Old Testament appearances. Jesus didn’t begin in Bethlehem; He has always been. The story of redemption started a long time ago in a garden. The Christmas story begins with a tree: the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Adam and Eve sinned and lost that sweet fellowship with God. Genesis 3:8 (NLT)“When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man and his wife heard the LORD God walking about in the garden.” We can never escape the presence of God. When you walk with God, it is a source of comfort. 1 John 1:9 (NKJV)“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us.” James 1:14–15 (NLT)“Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away.These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow,it gives birth to death.” The Bible says, “Christ was slain from the foundation of the world.” Genesis 3:15 Pharaoh tried to exterminate the Jews starting with the Hebrew baby boys. Wicked Haman tried to have the Jews wiped off the face of the earth. King Herod hearing that one was born, “King of the Jews,”tried to kill Jesus, but that too failed. Nothing would stop Messiah from coming.Nothing will stop Christ from coming again either. #4 The story of Abraham and Isaac on Mount Moriah. Read Genesis 22 The two of them went together.Genesis 22:8 That is exactly what happened when Jesus went to the cross for us. This gives a glimpse of Calvary from the Father’s perspective, sacrificing His Son, His only Son. Genesis 22:11 Christ died in our place and absorbed the wrath of God. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe reflects on the spiritual intensity of Yom Kippur and its seamless connection to Sukkot, emphasizing themes of forgiveness, selflessness, and renewal. He highlights how these holidays inspire a fresh start through acts of unity and service to Hashem. Key points include:Yom Kippur's Holiness: Yom Kippur, known as Yom HaKadosh (the Holy Day), is a time when Hashem desires closeness with us through teshuvah (repentance). The Al Chet prayer combines sins done “be'ones” (by mistake) and “beratzon” (with desire), teaching that even intentional sins stem from momentary weakness due to the Yetzer Hara (evil inclination). The Tefillah Zaka prayer, recited before Kol Nidre, acknowledges this struggle, asking forgiveness for succumbing to temptations despite our deeper desire to align with Hashem's will.Divine Forgiveness: Citing Numbers 14:20 (“Vayomer Hashem salachti kidvarecha” – “I forgive you as you have requested”), Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that sincere requests for forgiveness are immediately granted by Hashem, unlike human forgiveness with preconditions. This assurance fosters joy, as seen in sages dancing post-Yom Kippur, feeling unburdened of sins.Sukkot's Role: Sukkot, beginning September 25, 2025, is not a “forgotten holiday” but a vital demonstration of Yom Kippur's renewal. Leaving one's home for the sukkah symbolizes breaking old habits and starting anew, embracing discomfort (e.g., Houston's heat or rain) to avoid complacency. The four species (lulav, etrog, hadas, arava) represent unity among diverse Jews, while the 70 offerings for the nations reflect the Jewish mission to model ethics and morality globally.Selflessness on Yom Kippur: Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal story of responding to a Hatzalah call at 1 AM on Yom Kippur, driving a patient to the hospital while his daughter babysat the patient's children until 9:30 AM with minimal sleep. This act, inspired by his grandfather's teaching in the Mir Yeshiva to visit the sick during Musaf, exemplifies Yom Kippur's mitzvah of selflessness over selfishness, reinforcing the holiday's essence.Livelihood and Service: Yom Kippur prayers frequently mention livelihood, as financial worry hinders serving Hashem fully. A secure livelihood frees one to focus on spiritual growth, aligning with Sukkot's call to trust in Hashem while living simply in the sukkah.The episode concludes with a blessing for a meaningful Sukkot, a year of health, happiness, and secure livelihood, urging listeners to carry Yom Kippur's selflessness into daily life.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on October 5, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on October 5, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Today is day 278 and we are studying The Second Commandment. 278. Are all images wrong? No. God forbade the making of idols and the worship of images, yet commanded carvings and pictures for the tabernacle depicting creation. Christians are free to make images—including images of Jesus and the saints—as long as they do not worship them or use them superstitiously. (Exodus 37:1–9; Numbers 21:4–9; 1 Kings 6:23–35; 7:23–26; John 3:9–15) We will conclude today by praying the The Collect for the Third Sunday in Lent found on page 606 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Pastor Aaron McRae unpacks the heart of true Biblical worship. Worship isn't just about singing songs on Sunday—it begins with surrender. Looking at Exodus 34, we discover that God reveals Himself as compassionate, gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love, and faithful. When we see God for who He truly is, the only right response is worship—our whole lives offered in surrender.From Moses' bold prayer to see God's glory, to John 3:16's ultimate revelation of God's love, we are reminded that worship is not performance, ritual, or appeasement—it is bowing our hearts, our wills, and our lives before a God who is worthy.True worship flows from surrender. Will you give God more than a song—will you give Him your life?Resources MentionedThe Knowledge of the Holy – A.W.

It is a myth to believe that God will never give us more than we can handle, because the reality is our lives are filled with circumstances that are far beyond our ability to navigate. The passage that is so often misquoted in this regard actually speaks of God's faithfulness to provide a way of escape from sin, not the absence of overwhelming trials. The truth is that God allows us to face the impossible so that He might demonstrate His power on our behalf, making possible what is otherwise impossible. Exodus 36 gives us a vivid picture of this as the people of Israel were given a task that was far beyond their own capacity, yet by the filling and empowering of the Spirit of God the work was accomplished in a miraculous way.

Lead Pastor Travis Simone brings a message from Exodus 11:4-12:13 as we continue our series, "The Exodus Way."For more information, visit:• Website: http://www.wcchapel.org• Facebook: wcchapel757• Instagram: wcchapel757

Exodus tells the story of how the Israelites went from a people under slavery in Egypt to a kingdom of priests under God as their King. What does this have to show us about what it means to live with Jesus as King in the here-and-now?

Exodus 4: 1 - 17

Welcome to the sermon. Today we're in Exodus 3 & 4, exploring one of life's most foundational questions: "Who am I?" Through Moses's encounter at the burning bush, we'll confront the shame and insecurity that so often writes our life's story. We'll see how God's answer to our feelings of inadequacy is profoundly different from the world's, shifting our focus from our weakness to His powerful presence.Scripture ReferencesExodus 3:1-14: The Burning Bush, God's call, and Moses's first question, "Who am I?"Exodus 4:1-17: Moses's excuses, God's provision of signs, and His promise of help.Key Points1. Unredeemed Shame Writes Our StoryOur behavior is rooted in what we believe about ourselves. While guilt says "I did something bad," shame says "I am bad." If this shame isn't redeemed, it becomes the author of our story, creating vows that dictate our actions. Moses was crippled by shame: he felt he belonged nowhere, was a failure rejected by everyone, was too old, and was disabled by a speech impediment. His shame was about to make him miss his destiny.2. The World's Answer vs. God's AnswerHow does God respond to Moses's crippling insecurity? Our culture—and even AI—advises self-reflection, validation, and positive reinforcement. The goal is self-love. God's approach is completely different. When Moses asks, "Who am I?", God doesn't list Moses's qualifications or tell him "You've got this." Instead, He gives a radically different answer that changes the entire equation: "I will be with you."3. God's Presence is the Antidote to PrideGod's answer isn't a non-answer; it's the only answer. Focusing on ourselves leads to one of two places: pride ("I am adequate") or insecurity ("I am inadequate"). Both are forms of pride because they are self-obsessed. The way out is to stop looking inward, which leads to depression, and to look at God, which leads to rest. God's presence, not our adequacy, is the foundation for our calling.ConclusionGod's promise, "I will be with you," is the definitive answer to our deepest insecurities. He doesn't call the adequate; He makes Himself present to the inadequate. Even God's anger at Moses's final excuse was the protective love of a Father, angry for him, not wanting him to miss his destiny. God wants to take the pen from the hand of your shame and become the true Author of your story.Calls to ActionIdentify the Script: Recognize where shame, rather than God's truth, is writing the script for your life.Shift Your Focus: When you feel inadequate, intentionally shift your question from "Who am I?" to "Who is the God that is with me?"Rest in His Presence: Stop striving to become adequate. Instead, receive the promise that He is with you as your all-sufficient help. Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI. Please notify us if you find any errors.

Sermon from Exodus 19 in St. Charles, IL

This Sukkos, as we sit together under one roof, the lulav and etrog in our hands carry a message far deeper than ritual. The four species are not symbols of difference but of interdependence — a call to unity that Baal HaSulam says is the very condition for receiving Torah itself. In this episode, we explore why the mitzvah can only be fulfilled when all four are bound together, and why the Jewish people can only fulfill their purpose when we are united as one.Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

* You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2025Messages/25Oct05.pdf * Last week, in our study of the book of Hebrews, we began to consider the Author's presentation that Jesus isn't just an "angel" rather He is more than an "angel" ... He is God the Son! In that study, we considered the nature of His Sonship - in being part of the Triune Godhead of YHWH. Additionally, we saw that one of the roles of the Son is to be the Tabernacling Presence of YHWH on the earth. He is the Apostle (official representative) of the Father. This week we will consider His Salvation. * Last week and this week are critical in establishing the case for the Messianic provision of the perfect propitiation for our sins. The perfect God - YHWH - condescended to the earth in order to take on our flesh in order to overcome the ultimate consequence of our sin - death! The perfect sin sacrifice had to be both God (perfection) and Man (humanity-the bearer of sin); Jesus is that Perfect Propitiation! * Coming out of the conversation that Jesus is God the Son, not an angel, the author brings a Challenge to the Hebrew listeners: How shall WE escape if WE neglect so great a salvation? In this section, we will see allusions to two great moments of Israel's history and deliverance (the Exodus and David's victory over Goliath) - but also times of GREAT SALVATION/DELIVERANCE which were treated with negligence by the people. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on September 21, 2025 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

In this episode of the Everyday Judaism Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the discussion of Siman 26 of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, focusing on the laws of the mourner's Kaddish, specifically halachot 5–12, which address priorities for reciting Kaddish when multiple mourners are present. He notes that while these precedence rules are less relevant today due to the common practice of all mourners reciting Kaddish together, they remain significant for understanding halachic priorities. Key points include:Recap of Mourning Periods: Rabbi Wolbe reiterates the four mourning stages—shiva (7 days), shloshim (30 days), the first year, and yahrtzeit (annual commemoration)—with shiva mourners having the highest priority for Kaddish, followed by shloshim, year-long mourners, and yahrtzeit observers.Halacha 5–6 (Kaddish Allocation): Yahrtzeit and shloshim mourners take precedence over those in the first year, but some Kaddishes (e.g., Rabbi's Kaddish, post-Aleinu Kaddish) are reserved for yahrtzeit or shloshim mourners. If both a yahrtzeit observer and a shloshim mourner are present, the shloshim mourner recites first, as their obligation continues the next day, while a yahrtzeit observer's opportunity is limited to the anniversary day.Halacha 7–8 (Resolving Conflicts): When two mourners of equal status (e.g., both in shloshim) want to recite Kaddish or lead services, they cast lots (e.g., rock, paper, scissors). The winner of the evening (Ma'ariv) Kaddish yields the morning (Shacharis) Kaddish to the other, with lots cast for the afternoon (Mincha) Kaddish. Residents take precedence over guests with the same mourning status, but guests (e.g., yahrtzeit or shloshim) are granted at least one Kaddish, even over a resident in the first year.Halacha 12 (Resident vs. Guest): A resident is defined as someone with a permanent home in the community, regardless of tax status, or someone whose deceased parent was a local resident. Guests include those with homes elsewhere or temporary residents (e.g., students, boarders with living parents). A mourner who regularly prays at another synagogue is not considered a guest and is directed to recite Kaddish there.Community Support: Rabbi Wolbe shares an example of Houston's Jewish community arranging a late-night minyan for a visitor needing to recite Kaddish, highlighting communal responsibility to support mourners.The episode pauses at halacha 12, with the promise to continue in the next session, and opens the floor for the "Ask Away" segment, encouraging listener questions._____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #63) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

In 1947, with the dissolution of the British Indian Empire, more than 15 million people migrated for religious reasons. The upheaval was worsened by monsoon flooding and the spread of disease. More than a million refugees died. Throughout history, people have migrated—seeking freedom, safety, or a better life. The urge to move is ingrained in the human experience. The most famous example in Scripture is the exodus story of the Jews to the promised land. This experience wasn’t foreign to Jesus either. As a young baby, His parents fled to Egypt to protect His life from the murderous Herod. It’s ironic that as the Israelites fled to the promised land (Exodus 3:17) to get away from a king who killed young boys (Exodus 1:16), Joseph is told to take Jesus “and his mother and escape to Egypt” to flee a tyrant who did the same (Matthew 2:13, 17). Matthew tells us this journey was to fulfill the prophecy in Hosea 11:1 that “out of Egypt I called my son” (Matthew 2:15). But it’s also a reminder that Christ understands the human experience (Hebrews 4:15). We have a Savior who knows us and has experienced the same trials and tribulations we have. We can seek Him in our difficult moments. He listens and intercedes on our behalf (Hebrews 4:14-16).

Jase confesses that a single word in a church service had him mentally checked out, but his distraction sparks a bigger conversation about what's happening in churches today. The guys marvel at the surprising revival that has young people pouring back into humble, overflowing gatherings while ornate cathedrals sit empty. They dive into verses in John where Jesus breathes peace and new-creation life into his followers before sending them out to their mission fields. The guys agree that true revival isn't about where you worship but who you worship, and the Spirit is stirring hearts back to Jesus.
