11 november. Israels ambassadör Ziv Nevo Kulman om vad som förändrats och inte förändrats under de fyra år han varit posterad i Sverige, om framtiden för Gaza, den förändrade hotbilden mot både israeler och judar i Sverige, och varför Israel har ändrat uppfattning i frågan om man kan ha en relation till Sverigedemokraterna. Tove Lifvendahl ställer frågorna.

Im Westjordanland kommt es immer wieder zu Angriffen radikaler israelischer Siedler auf Palästinenser. Ehud Olmert verurteilt diese Angriffe scharf. Diese seien „unerträglich, inakzeptabel und unverzeihlich”, so der israelische Ex-Premierminister. Hammer, Benjamin www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interview der Woche

Complementary New Testament Passage:John 3:16-35 Sermon Title: By the Help of your Never-changing God, Return to Him Sermon Outline: By the Help of your Never-changing God, Return to Him The Self-Assured will find themselves in tents Rescued and kept from your guilt by the Word of God Family Discussion Questions: What did Jacob do in order to get more than Esau? What was the new name God gave to Jacob after He wrestled with Jacob all night? Why is it a bad plan to think you will go to heaven because God will not be able to find any sin in you? What was Jacobs job when he was working in order to marry Rachael? What did God use to be Israels shepherd? (The Bible - the prophets) Why is sinning described as chasing and feeding on wind? Israel looked back into their history and took confidence in the exact opposite of what they should have. Explain. Why do Gods people (even today) need to continually be reminded that it is with His Word that they are redeemed and kept? Why is verse 9 both a threat and a kind promise? Some people wrongly think of rejecting salvation as making someone guilty. How does verse 14 (and John 3:16-35) correct this understanding? How does verse 6 correct legalism and lawlessness? What is the meaning of comparing Jacobs changing names with Gods name, Yahweh (or Jehovah)?

The Two Different Israels

In this week's Proclaiming Justice, Laurie Cardoza-Moore welcomes Abe Katsman — American attorney, political commentator, and counsel to Republicans Overseas Israel — to unpack the controversy surrounding President Trump's envoys and the recent ceasefire with Hamas. Abe offers rare insight from Jerusalem on how U.S. media misrepresents Israel's actions, why the September 9 strike in Qatar was necessary, and what believers must understand about negotiating with terror.Together they reveal the spiritual and moral stakes of Israel's struggle against radical Islam and call Christians to stand for truth in a world that rewards deception.

Führer, Susanne www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Im Gespräch

Fischer, Jochen www.deutschlandfunk.de, Das war der Tag

Vor vielen Jahren kam mir folgender Fall unter: Ein Mann hatte etwa 50.000 Euro gespart. Er wollte es gern gewinnbringend anlegen. Über Bekannte wurde er einem Mann vorgestellt, der einen angeblich todsicheren Geheimtipp hatte. Er verfüge über Kontakte zur Weltbank (!). Dort gebe es ein Konto, auf das man einzahlen könne und in nur drei Monaten eine Million Euro ausbezahlt käme. Das wäre einer Rendite von 2000 %! Ob man es glaubt oder nicht, der Anleger stieg darauf ein. Doch er hat – oh Wunder – nicht einen Cent wiedergesehen. Seitdem habe ich viele Fälle mit Kapitalanlagebetrug erlebt. Eines hatten alle gemeinsam: Es wurde eine immense Rendite versprochen, doch die Anleger gingen leer aus.Im Tagesvers fragt Petrus seinen Meister, Jesus Christus, nach seinen Rendite-Chancen. Er hat kein Kapital eingesetzt, aber er hat alle Brücken hinter sich abgebrochen, um diesem Jesus nachzufolgen. Was werden sie davon haben?Jesus sprach zu ihnen (Matthäus 19,28-29): »Wahrlich, ich sage euch: Ihr, die ihr mir nachgefolgt seid, werdet bei der Wiedergeburt, wenn der Menschensohn sitzen wird auf dem Thron seiner Herrlichkeit, auch sitzen auf zwölf Thronen und richten die zwölf Stämme Israels. Und wer Häuser oder Brüder oder Schwestern oder Vater oder Mutter oder Kinder oder Äcker verlässt um meines Namens willen, der wird's hundertfach empfangen und das ewige Leben ererben.«Hier spricht der Schöpfer allen Lebens, der Sohn des lebendigen Gottes, und kein Betrüger. Seine Zusagen sind absolut verlässlich. Er verspricht Menschen, die ihm nachfolgen und ihr altes Leben für ihn aufgeben, eine immense Rendite: 10 000 %. Und dazu vor allem ewiges Leben! Nur ein Narr würde diese Chance ignorieren.Markus MajonicaDiese und viele weitere Andachten online lesenWeitere Informationen zu »Leben ist mehr« erhalten Sie unter www.lebenistmehr.deAudioaufnahmen: Radio Segenswelle

Rune Lykkeberg taler i denne uge med den unge indiske aktivist Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla, der blandt andet har stiftet Haag-gruppen, som vil holde Israel ansvarlig for krigsforbrydelser begået i Gaza --- Ugens gæst hos Rune Lykkeberg er den fremadstormende, verdenserobrende, unge indiske aktivist, Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla. Hun har været med til at organisere Progressive International, et globalt samarbejde, der søger at matche højreorienteringens globale samarbejde. Hun står også bag Haag-gruppen, en udløber af Progressive International, som er en sammenslutning af lande fra det globale syd, der vil føre Israels krigsforbrydelser til den internationale domstol i Haag. Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla er født i 1994 i Indien og er vokset op i en periode, hvor venstrefløjen brød fuldstændig sammen. Hun har set, hvordan venstrefløjens forslag til løsninger blev forkastet, selv om dens problemformuleringer blev bekræftet. Hun er samtidig en aktivist, som tror på at mobilisere og sprede idéer, analyser og argumenter for at skabe forandring. Hun har tillid til, at de gamle institutioner kan bruges til at skabe positiv forandring, men hun har ikke tillid til, at de altid fungerer optimalt. I en tid, hvor den gamle verdensorden smuldrer, begræder mange naturligt alt det, der forsvinder og går i stykker, men man kan også vælge at se på de institutioner, tiltag og grupper, som bliver faktisk skabt. Her er Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla en enestående stemme, som det er værd at lytte til.

Gästinnen: Laura Leyser, Geschäftsführerin von Ärzte ohne Grenzen Österreich und Shoura Hashemi, Geschäftsführerin von Amnesty Österreich Moderation: Melanie Vejnik Der grausame Angriff der Hamas am 7. Oktober 2023 im Süden Israels löste eine neue Eskalation des Konflikts aus. 1.400 Menschen wurden getötet, mehr als 200 entführt. In den zwei Jahren danach hat die israelische Armee Hunderttausende Menschen vertrieben und ihre Lebensgrundlagen systematisch zerstört, Zehntausende wurden verletzt und getötet. Die gesamte Infrastruktur – Wohnhäuser, Straßen, Krankenhäuser, Schulen – wurde zerstört. Das Gesundheitssystem und die Nahrungsmittelproduktion sind praktisch zum Erliegen gekommen. In dieser Folge sprechen wir mit Laura Leyser, Geschäftsführerin von Ärzte ohne Grenzen Österreich und Shoura Hashemi Geschäftsführerin von Amnesty Österreich über die humanitäre Katastrophe im Gazastreifen – einem Gebiet, dem monatelang ausreichende Hilfslieferungen verwehrt wurden. Humanitäre Hilfe wurde instrumentalisiert, der Verteilmechanismus der „Gaza Humanitarian Foundation“ zur Todesfalle. Immer wieder kam es zu Angriffen auf Menschen, die auf Lebensmittel warteten. Heute ist kein Krankenhaus im Gazastreifen voll funktionsfähig. Nahezu alle medizinischen Einrichtungen wurden zerstört oder schwer beschädigt; von 36 Krankenhäusern sind nur noch 14 teilweise in Betrieb. Shownotes:Amnesty Petition: Stoppt den Genozid in Gaza!

The Bible never hides the mess that happens when sinful people collide. It doesnt take much to recognize that since Adam and Eve were promised a descendant who would crush the head of the serpent, the story of Gods people is one of dysfunction. All who make up Jesus family tree include broken and messy people. When we come to Genesis 29, we meet Jacoba deceiverand Leah, the woman no one wanted. But their story began long before this moment. God had promised Abraham that through his descendants would come a child who would bless all nations. That promise passed to Isaac, and before his twins were born, God declared,The older shall serve the younger (Gen. 25:23). Jacob deceived his aging father, stole his brothers blessing, and fled for his life. Alone in the wilderness, with only a stone for a pillow, God met him in a dream.I am the LORD, the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac. The land on which you lie I will give to you and to your offspring and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed. Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go (Gen. 28:1315). God didnt appear to Jacob because he finally got his act togetherHe showed up in Jacobs mess. Thats the beauty of grace: God steps into our brokenness, keeps His promises, and accomplishes His plan through imperfect people. Later, God gave him the name Israel, but for the purpose of this sermon, we will continue to refer to him as Jacob (Gen. 35:9-21). Outside of Eden We Want Rachel (Gen. 29:1-20) When Laban heard his nephew had arrived, heran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him, and brought him to his house(Gen. 29:13). Jacob stayed with his uncle for a month, and during that time he fell in love with Labans younger daughter, Rachel (v. 18). Why did Jacob love Rachel? The text tells us:Now Laban had two daughters; the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel. And Leahs eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful in figure and appearance(vv. 1617). Were not told exactly what it means that Leahs eyes were weak. Some think she was cross-eyed or simply lacked the beauty that her younger sister possessed. Whatever the case, the contrast is clearLeah was plain, but Rachel was striking. Even their names hint at the difference:Leahmay mean wild cow or gazelle, whileRachelmeans ewe or lamba softer, more affectionate name. Rachel was beautiful, and Jacob was captivated. When Laban offered to pay Jacob for his work, Jacob didnt ask for wageshe offered seven years of labor for Rachels hand. Laban agreed.So Jacob worked seven years to pay for Rachel. But his love for her was so strong that it seemed to him but a few days(Gen. 29:20, NLT). Rachel was the apple of his eyethe treasure of his heart. To Jacob, life with Rachel promised the happiness he had always longed for. And isnt that what we all want? On this side of Eden, every heart searches for a Rachelsomeone or something we believe will complete us. We might not call it Rachel, but we chase it in our stories, our dreams, and our longings. We dont want Leah. We want Rachel. If the Bible repeats something, we need to pay attention to it. But, if the Bible repeats something three times, it elevates it to the superlative degree as something super important. Three times we are told of Jacobs love for Rachel: Now Jacob loved Rachel, so he said, I will serve you seven years for your younger daughter Rachel. (Gen. 29:18) So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to him like only a few days because of his love for her. (Gen. 29:20) So Jacob had relations with Rachel also, and indeed he loved Rachel more than Leah, and he served with Laban for another seven years. (Gen. 29:30) Guess how many times we are told that Jacob loved Leah. Zero. In fact, when it comes to love, here is what we are told: Now the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was unable to have children (v. 31). Outside of Eden We Get Leah (Gen. 29:21-30) After Jacob completed the seven years he had promised his uncle, he was ready to receive what his heart had longed for.Then Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife, for my time is completed, that I may have relations with her. So Laban gathered all the people of the place and held a feast(Gen. 29:2122). Finally, Jacob believed life was about to become sweet. The wedding celebration began, the food was served, and the wine flowed freely. When the bride was brought to himveiled and under cover of nightJacob, likely feeling content and confident, welcomed her.Now in the evening he took his daughter Leah and brought her to him; and Jacob had relations with her.... So it came about in the morning that, behold, it was Leah!(Gen. 29:23, 25a). Morning light brought a brutal truth. The woman beside him was not Rachelthe love of his lifebut Leah, the weak-eyed daughter whose very name meant wild cow. Jacob was furious. He had been deceivedjust as he had once deceived his brother Esau. His dream of happiness, shattered.And he said to Laban, What is this that you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?(v. 25). But Laban, the master manipulator, calmly replied,It is not the practice in our place to marry off the younger before the firstborn. Complete the week of this one, and we will give you the other also for the service which you shall serve with me for another seven years(vv. 2627). Jacob was trappedused for free labor once again. He was tricked into taking the daughter he hadnt chosen, and bartered into another seven years for the one he loved. Unfortunately for Leah, she was stuck in the middle of all the drama. Outside of Eden There is Still Hope The marriage that Jacob was tricked into began with a week-long celebration. Laban insisted Jacob complete the festivities with Leah, giving enough time for her to become pregnant. Yet Jacob was eager for the days to end, and as soon as the week was over, he immediately married Rachel. Driven by the selfish motives of both Jacob and Laban, Leah found herself trappedcaught between their desires and loved by no one. Leah was rejected, while Rachel was cherished. The striking irony in Leahs story is that, while she was overlooked by everyone else, God loved her: Now the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was unable to have children (v. 31). Despite Gods blessings with each child, Leahs deepest longing, which was for her husbands love, remained out of reach. After every birth, Leah hoped that her husband would finally love her, yet that hope was continually unfulfilled. Consider how Leah responded after each of her first four child were born: Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and named him Reuben, for she said, Because the Lord has seen my affliction; surely now my husband will love me. (v. 32) Then she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, Because the Lord has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also. So she named him Simeon. (v. 33) And she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, Now this time my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons. Therefore he was named Levi. (v. 34) And she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, This time I will praise the Lord. Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped having children. (v. 35) I wish Leahs story ended with her praising theLORD, but it didnt. She continued to seek Jacobs affection by giving him what Rachel could notchildren. Just as Sarah gave Hagar to Jacob, Rachel followed the same pattern when she could not conceive, unwilling to trust Gods timing. What followed was a rivalry between Leah and Rachel, each striving to win Jacobs love by giving him more sons. Both even gave their servants to Jacob, and through them, four more sons were born. In time, God blessed Leah with two additional sons and a daughter, yet her longing for her husbands love was never fulfilled (seeGen. 30:1921). Rachel, meanwhile, bore only two sonsJosephand, finally,Benjamin, the only son Jacob named. Then they journeyed on from Bethel; but when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth and she suffered severe difficulties in her labor. And when she was suffering severe difficulties in her labor, the midwife said to her, Do not fear, for you have another son! And it came about, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she named him Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin(Gen. 35:1618). Application The irony in Leahs story is striking: although she was overlooked by her father, unloved by her husband, and scorned by her younger sister, she was shown favor by God. Leah became the mother of seven children, including Levi and Judah. Through Levi, the priestly lineage was established, and through Judah, the royal line was formeda line that ultimately led to the birth of Jesus Christ! The promise God made to Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob... was Leahs promise. Listen to the prophetic blessing pronounced upon Judah by Jacob in Genesis 49:8-10, As for you, Judah, your brothers shall praise you;your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;your fathers sons shall bow down to you. Judah is a lions cub;from the prey, my son, you have gone up.He crouches, he lies down as a lion,and as a lion, who dares to stir him up? The scepter will not depart from Judah,nor the rulers staff from between his feet,until Shiloh comes;and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples. The ugly wife was loved by God! Leah couldnt have seen it then, but the beauty God would bring through her lineage is staggering. Her name may meanweary,exhausted,gazelle, or evenwild cowyet through her would come the Deliverer promised to Adam and Eve, to Noah, to Abraham and Sarah, to Isaac, and now to Jacob. She was the wife no one loved or treasured, except God Himself. From Leahs sons came the tribe ofLevi, the tribe set apart to oversee the worship and sacrificial life of Israel. From the Levites, God appointed theHigh Priest, chosen from Aarons line, to mediate between God and His people. Upon his chest he wore a sacred breastplate adorned with twelve precious stones, each set in gold and engraved with the name of one of Israels tribes. Thefirst stone,sardiusa deep red rubyrepresentedReuben, whose name meansBehold, a son!Thelast stone,jasper, representedBenjamin, meaningson of my right hand. Leahs legacy was not measured by Jacobs affection but by Gods covenantal love. Through the unloved wife, God brought forth the priesthood that pointed to the Great High PriestJesus Christ. Conclusion Now, permit me to show you something from Revelation 4-5. In Revelation 4, John is invited to see the heavenly throne room of God. Notice what it is that John sees: After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, like the sound of a trumpet speaking with me, said, Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after these things. Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne was standing in heaven, and someone was sitting on the throne. And He who was sitting was like a jasper stone and a sardius in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald in appearance. John is ushered into heavens throne room, and what captures his attention is that the One seated on the throne radiates with the colors of jasper and sardiusthe first and last stones on the High Priests breastplate. This is not accidental imagery. It is intentional revelation. What shines from the throne is He who is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. When you pair the meanings of those names Behold, a Son and Son of My right handyou hear the gospel proclaimed from the very throne of God. Who is this Son at the right hand of the Father? Revelation 1:1718 gives the answer: Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last, and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and Hades. The One radiant like sardius and jasper is none other than Jesus Christ. And how do we know He sits at the right hand of the Father? Because Paul who himself was from the tribe represented by the jasper stonedeclares in Romans 8:3134: What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? Who will bring charges against Gods elect? God is the one who justifies; who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, but rather, was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. This is the One who is worthy to open the scroll in the Fathers hand. Revelation 5:5 tells us, ...behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to be able to open the scroll and its seven seals. The elder tells John to look at the Lion of Judah. But when John turns, he doesnt see a lion. He sees a Lamb. A Lamb standing, as if slaughtered... (Rev. 5:6). Jacob chased after a beautiful woman whose name meant sheep, but through Leahthe unloved, weary wifewould come the Lamb of God. The Lamb who stands before the throne as the triumphant Redeemer. And all of heaven erupts in worship: Worthy is the Lamb that was slaughtered to receive power, wealth, wisdom, might, honor, glory, and blessing (Rev. 5:12). What is the point of Leahs story? God redeems what is ugly, weary, and rejected. He takes what the world despises and uses it to accomplish His glorious plan of redemption. This is why the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders sing a new song to Leahs descendant: Worthy are You to take the scroll and to break its seals; for You were slaughtered, and You purchased people for God with Your blood from every tribe, language, people, and nation (Rev. 5:9). And here is where the story turns deeply personal. We are Leah. We are the unlovely bride. We are the weary, broken, and undeserving. But instead of being repulsed by us, Jesus loves us. He makes us His Bride. Paul writes, For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Rom. 8:3839). Leahs story ends not in sorrow, but in the songs of heaven. The woman who was unloved became the vessel through whom the Lamb of God would come. The tribe she bore would point to the Great High Priest, and the Son of her bodys lineage would one day stand at the right hand of the Father. Worthy is the Lamb who was slain. That is our story too. If you belong to Christ, then your shame, your weariness, and your rejection are not the end of the story. The throne is. The Lamb is. His love is.

The Bible never hides the mess that happens when sinful people collide. It doesnt take much to recognize that since Adam and Eve were promised a descendant who would crush the head of the serpent, the story of Gods people is one of dysfunction. All who make up Jesus family tree include broken and messy people. When we come to Genesis 29, we meet Jacoba deceiverand Leah, the woman no one wanted. But their story began long before this moment. God had promised Abraham that through his descendants would come a child who would bless all nations. That promise passed to Isaac, and before his twins were born, God declared,The older shall serve the younger (Gen. 25:23). Jacob deceived his aging father, stole his brothers blessing, and fled for his life. Alone in the wilderness, with only a stone for a pillow, God met him in a dream.I am the LORD, the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac. The land on which you lie I will give to you and to your offspring and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed. Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go (Gen. 28:1315). God didnt appear to Jacob because he finally got his act togetherHe showed up in Jacobs mess. Thats the beauty of grace: God steps into our brokenness, keeps His promises, and accomplishes His plan through imperfect people. Later, God gave him the name Israel, but for the purpose of this sermon, we will continue to refer to him as Jacob (Gen. 35:9-21). Outside of Eden We Want Rachel (Gen. 29:1-20) When Laban heard his nephew had arrived, heran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him, and brought him to his house(Gen. 29:13). Jacob stayed with his uncle for a month, and during that time he fell in love with Labans younger daughter, Rachel (v. 18). Why did Jacob love Rachel? The text tells us:Now Laban had two daughters; the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel. And Leahs eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful in figure and appearance(vv. 1617). Were not told exactly what it means that Leahs eyes were weak. Some think she was cross-eyed or simply lacked the beauty that her younger sister possessed. Whatever the case, the contrast is clearLeah was plain, but Rachel was striking. Even their names hint at the difference:Leahmay mean wild cow or gazelle, whileRachelmeans ewe or lamba softer, more affectionate name. Rachel was beautiful, and Jacob was captivated. When Laban offered to pay Jacob for his work, Jacob didnt ask for wageshe offered seven years of labor for Rachels hand. Laban agreed.So Jacob worked seven years to pay for Rachel. But his love for her was so strong that it seemed to him but a few days(Gen. 29:20, NLT). Rachel was the apple of his eyethe treasure of his heart. To Jacob, life with Rachel promised the happiness he had always longed for. And isnt that what we all want? On this side of Eden, every heart searches for a Rachelsomeone or something we believe will complete us. We might not call it Rachel, but we chase it in our stories, our dreams, and our longings. We dont want Leah. We want Rachel. If the Bible repeats something, we need to pay attention to it. But, if the Bible repeats something three times, it elevates it to the superlative degree as something super important. Three times we are told of Jacobs love for Rachel: Now Jacob loved Rachel, so he said, I will serve you seven years for your younger daughter Rachel. (Gen. 29:18) So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to him like only a few days because of his love for her. (Gen. 29:20) So Jacob had relations with Rachel also, and indeed he loved Rachel more than Leah, and he served with Laban for another seven years. (Gen. 29:30) Guess how many times we are told that Jacob loved Leah. Zero. In fact, when it comes to love, here is what we are told: Now the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was unable to have children (v. 31). Outside of Eden We Get Leah (Gen. 29:21-30) After Jacob completed the seven years he had promised his uncle, he was ready to receive what his heart had longed for.Then Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife, for my time is completed, that I may have relations with her. So Laban gathered all the people of the place and held a feast(Gen. 29:2122). Finally, Jacob believed life was about to become sweet. The wedding celebration began, the food was served, and the wine flowed freely. When the bride was brought to himveiled and under cover of nightJacob, likely feeling content and confident, welcomed her.Now in the evening he took his daughter Leah and brought her to him; and Jacob had relations with her.... So it came about in the morning that, behold, it was Leah!(Gen. 29:23, 25a). Morning light brought a brutal truth. The woman beside him was not Rachelthe love of his lifebut Leah, the weak-eyed daughter whose very name meant wild cow. Jacob was furious. He had been deceivedjust as he had once deceived his brother Esau. His dream of happiness, shattered.And he said to Laban, What is this that you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?(v. 25). But Laban, the master manipulator, calmly replied,It is not the practice in our place to marry off the younger before the firstborn. Complete the week of this one, and we will give you the other also for the service which you shall serve with me for another seven years(vv. 2627). Jacob was trappedused for free labor once again. He was tricked into taking the daughter he hadnt chosen, and bartered into another seven years for the one he loved. Unfortunately for Leah, she was stuck in the middle of all the drama. Outside of Eden There is Still Hope The marriage that Jacob was tricked into began with a week-long celebration. Laban insisted Jacob complete the festivities with Leah, giving enough time for her to become pregnant. Yet Jacob was eager for the days to end, and as soon as the week was over, he immediately married Rachel. Driven by the selfish motives of both Jacob and Laban, Leah found herself trappedcaught between their desires and loved by no one. Leah was rejected, while Rachel was cherished. The striking irony in Leahs story is that, while she was overlooked by everyone else, God loved her: Now the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was unable to have children (v. 31). Despite Gods blessings with each child, Leahs deepest longing, which was for her husbands love, remained out of reach. After every birth, Leah hoped that her husband would finally love her, yet that hope was continually unfulfilled. Consider how Leah responded after each of her first four child were born: Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and named him Reuben, for she said, Because the Lord has seen my affliction; surely now my husband will love me. (v. 32) Then she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, Because the Lord has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also. So she named him Simeon. (v. 33) And she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, Now this time my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons. Therefore he was named Levi. (v. 34) And she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, This time I will praise the Lord. Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped having children. (v. 35) I wish Leahs story ended with her praising theLORD, but it didnt. She continued to seek Jacobs affection by giving him what Rachel could notchildren. Just as Sarah gave Hagar to Jacob, Rachel followed the same pattern when she could not conceive, unwilling to trust Gods timing. What followed was a rivalry between Leah and Rachel, each striving to win Jacobs love by giving him more sons. Both even gave their servants to Jacob, and through them, four more sons were born. In time, God blessed Leah with two additional sons and a daughter, yet her longing for her husbands love was never fulfilled (seeGen. 30:1921). Rachel, meanwhile, bore only two sonsJosephand, finally,Benjamin, the only son Jacob named. Then they journeyed on from Bethel; but when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth and she suffered severe difficulties in her labor. And when she was suffering severe difficulties in her labor, the midwife said to her, Do not fear, for you have another son! And it came about, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she named him Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin(Gen. 35:1618). Application The irony in Leahs story is striking: although she was overlooked by her father, unloved by her husband, and scorned by her younger sister, she was shown favor by God. Leah became the mother of seven children, including Levi and Judah. Through Levi, the priestly lineage was established, and through Judah, the royal line was formeda line that ultimately led to the birth of Jesus Christ! The promise God made to Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob... was Leahs promise. Listen to the prophetic blessing pronounced upon Judah by Jacob in Genesis 49:8-10, As for you, Judah, your brothers shall praise you;your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;your fathers sons shall bow down to you. Judah is a lions cub;from the prey, my son, you have gone up.He crouches, he lies down as a lion,and as a lion, who dares to stir him up? The scepter will not depart from Judah,nor the rulers staff from between his feet,until Shiloh comes;and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples. The ugly wife was loved by God! Leah couldnt have seen it then, but the beauty God would bring through her lineage is staggering. Her name may meanweary,exhausted,gazelle, or evenwild cowyet through her would come the Deliverer promised to Adam and Eve, to Noah, to Abraham and Sarah, to Isaac, and now to Jacob. She was the wife no one loved or treasured, except God Himself. From Leahs sons came the tribe ofLevi, the tribe set apart to oversee the worship and sacrificial life of Israel. From the Levites, God appointed theHigh Priest, chosen from Aarons line, to mediate between God and His people. Upon his chest he wore a sacred breastplate adorned with twelve precious stones, each set in gold and engraved with the name of one of Israels tribes. Thefirst stone,sardiusa deep red rubyrepresentedReuben, whose name meansBehold, a son!Thelast stone,jasper, representedBenjamin, meaningson of my right hand. Leahs legacy was not measured by Jacobs affection but by Gods covenantal love. Through the unloved wife, God brought forth the priesthood that pointed to the Great High PriestJesus Christ. Conclusion Now, permit me to show you something from Revelation 4-5. In Revelation 4, John is invited to see the heavenly throne room of God. Notice what it is that John sees: After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, like the sound of a trumpet speaking with me, said, Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after these things. Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne was standing in heaven, and someone was sitting on the throne. And He who was sitting was like a jasper stone and a sardius in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald in appearance. John is ushered into heavens throne room, and what captures his attention is that the One seated on the throne radiates with the colors of jasper and sardiusthe first and last stones on the High Priests breastplate. This is not accidental imagery. It is intentional revelation. What shines from the throne is He who is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. When you pair the meanings of those names Behold, a Son and Son of My right handyou hear the gospel proclaimed from the very throne of God. Who is this Son at the right hand of the Father? Revelation 1:1718 gives the answer: Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last, and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and Hades. The One radiant like sardius and jasper is none other than Jesus Christ. And how do we know He sits at the right hand of the Father? Because Paul who himself was from the tribe represented by the jasper stonedeclares in Romans 8:3134: What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? Who will bring charges against Gods elect? God is the one who justifies; who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, but rather, was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. This is the One who is worthy to open the scroll in the Fathers hand. Revelation 5:5 tells us, ...behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to be able to open the scroll and its seven seals. The elder tells John to look at the Lion of Judah. But when John turns, he doesnt see a lion. He sees a Lamb. A Lamb standing, as if slaughtered... (Rev. 5:6). Jacob chased after a beautiful woman whose name meant sheep, but through Leahthe unloved, weary wifewould come the Lamb of God. The Lamb who stands before the throne as the triumphant Redeemer. And all of heaven erupts in worship: Worthy is the Lamb that was slaughtered to receive power, wealth, wisdom, might, honor, glory, and blessing (Rev. 5:12). What is the point of Leahs story? God redeems what is ugly, weary, and rejected. He takes what the world despises and uses it to accomplish His glorious plan of redemption. This is why the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders sing a new song to Leahs descendant: Worthy are You to take the scroll and to break its seals; for You were slaughtered, and You purchased people for God with Your blood from every tribe, language, people, and nation (Rev. 5:9). And here is where the story turns deeply personal. We are Leah. We are the unlovely bride. We are the weary, broken, and undeserving. But instead of being repulsed by us, Jesus loves us. He makes us His Bride. Paul writes, For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Rom. 8:3839). Leahs story ends not in sorrow, but in the songs of heaven. The woman who was unloved became the vessel through whom the Lamb of God would come. The tribe she bore would point to the Great High Priest, and the Son of her bodys lineage would one day stand at the right hand of the Father. Worthy is the Lamb who was slain. That is our story too. If you belong to Christ, then your shame, your weariness, and your rejection are not the end of the story. The throne is. The Lamb is. His love is.

Im Gespräch zwischen Stefan Kaltenbrunner und Harry Bergmann geht es um Israels Situation nach dem Hamas-Angriff vom 7. Oktober 2024 und den Versuch, Frieden oder zumindest Stabilität zu erreichen. Bergmann schildert, wie der Antisemitismus in Europa stark zugenommen hat und jüdisches Leben zunehmend unsichtbar wird. Er beschreibt die israelische Gesellschaft als von Dauerkriegen und Angst geprägt, wodurch Mitgefühl gegenüber Palästinensern erschwert wird. Besonders kritisch äußert er sich zu sozialen Medien, die antisemitische Narrative verstärken und junge Menschen beeinflussen. Die Diskussion beleuchtet die Grenzen zwischen Israel-Kritik und Antisemitismus sowie die Unfähigkeit, differenziert über den Konflikt zu sprechen. Bergmann fordert, die Hamas als zentrales Hindernis für Frieden zu beseitigen, sieht aber keine kurzfristige Lösung. Er betont, dass der jüdische Antisemitismus längst Teil westlicher Gesellschaften geworden ist. Am Ende bleibt seine Sorge um die Juden außerhalb Israels größer als seine Hoffnung auf politischen Wandel.  Wir würden uns sehr freuen, wenn Du "Ganz offen gesagt" auf einem der folgenden Wege unterstützt:Werde Unterstützer:in auf SteadyKaufe ein Premium-Abo auf AppleKaufe Artikel in unserem FanshopSchalte Werbung in unserem PodcastFeedback bitte an redaktion@ganzoffengesagt.atTranskripte und Fotos zu den Folgen findest Du auf podcastradio.at

Die palästinensische Politik ist durch jahrzehntelange Besatzung und Israels gezielte Tötung und Inhaftierung populärer Führungspersönlichkeiten geschwächt worden. Israel, die USA und die Golfstaaten sind nun sehr zufrieden damit, ohne palästinensische Vertretung über den Wiederaufbau des Gazastreifens zu sprechen. Politische Anführer wie Marwan Barghouti und Ahmad Sa'adat müssen freigelassen werden, ihre Organisationen müssen offen über dieWeiterlesen

Der Waffenstillstand hat gehalten, trotz gegenseitiger Angriffe der Hamas und Israels. Verhandlungen zum Friedensplan von Donald Trump laufen in Ägypten weiter. Der Nahostexperte Guido Steinberg zeigt auf, wie wirtschaftliche Interessen den politischen Anliegen zum Durchbruch verhelfen sollen. Es ist ein Zeichen der Fragilität, dass der Waffenstillstand kurzzeitig gebrochen wurde. Es ist auch ein Zeichen der Stabilität, dass er nun wieder eingehalten wird. Dieser Schwebezustand könnte wochen- wenn nicht monatelang weitergehen. So die Einschätzung von Guido Steinberg, er ist Islam- und Nahostexperte bei der Stiftung für Wissenschaft und Politik in Berlin. Bemerkenswert sei die Art der Verhandlungen. Zuerst wurde ein sehr allgemeines Einverständnis beider Parteien eingefordert, bevor die Details und einzelne Schritte geklärt werden sollen. Diese Einigung kam unter maximalem Druck einerseits der USA auf Israel, andererseits von Katar und der Türkei auf die Hamas zustande. Im Vordergrund standen auch finanzielle Interessen. Wie erfolgversprechend ist diese Taktik mit Blick in die Zukunft? Kann es so gelingen, die Hamas zu entwaffnen? Der Nahostexperte Guido Steinberg ist zu Gast im Tagesgespräch bei Karoline Arn.

Nach 736 Tagen ist auch die letzte israelische Geisel aus der Gefangenschaft der Hamas befreit worden. Israel lässt im Gegenzug rund 2.000 palästinensische Gefangene frei und stellt die Kampfhandlungen erst einmal ein. Sehen wir hier den Anfang eines tatsächlichen Friedens in der Region, oder wird der Friedensplan nur von kurzer Dauer sein? Das erklären Matthias Wasinger vom Österreichischen Bundesheer und Maria Sterkl, Korrespondentin des STANDARD in Tel Aviv.

Vi ägnar hela veckans huvudepisod åt att prata Donald Trumps fredsplan för Gaza. Vi snackar det nödvändig andrummet för befolkningen, återlämningen av gisslan, de tusentals palestinier som hålls i israeliskt så kallad administrativt förvar, de olika faserna av planen, att Trump ska leda the ”Board of Peace” som ska styra över Gaza, det luddiga språket om Israels totala tillbakadragande, den stora frågan om palestinskt självbestämmande + mycket mer.

Onsdag morgen border israelsk militær skibet Milad, der er på vej mod Gaza med nødhjælp. Skibets mål var at bryde Israels mangeårige blokade, som forhindrer mad og medicin i at komme ind til de nødlidende i det ødelagte Gaza. Ombord er syv aktivister, blandt andet danske Isaac Twomey-Madsen. Mindre end et døgn før, det sker, var Isaac Twomey-Madsen igennem på telefon fra det lille skib på Middelhavet – så podcasten du skal høre i det her afsnit er optaget, mens ingen endnu var tilbageholdt, og de stadig havde kurs mod Gaza. Normalt læser han litteraturvidenskab, men de seneste måneder har han arbejdet fuld tid på nødhjælpsprojektet. Og i det her afsnit fortæller han, hvordan han har været med til at skaffe penge, købe et skib og lære, hvad man gør, hvis man bliver anholdt af israelske soldater. Og om hvorfor det er så vigtigt for ham at sejle af sted mod Gaza med en last fuld af medicin og modermælkserstatning.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Det har gått två år sen Hamas terrorattack mot Israel. Sen dess har Israel gjort allt för att slå ut terrorgruppen. Runt om i världen pågår demonstrationer och protester mot Israels krig mot Gaza. Även i Israel. Israel har hävdat sin rätt att försvara sig efter Hamas attack, men många har under åren ifrågasatt hur långt Israel ska gå i sin jakt på hämnd. Internationella domstolen i Haag i Nederländerna, utreder också om Israel har begått brott mot mänskliga rättigheter, om det som Israel gör är ett folkmord. Vad domstolen i Haag kommer med för beslut återstår att se. Hur är läget i Israel just nu? Vad tycker invånarna om kriget och vad tänker de om fredsförhandlingarna?

Im Nahost-Konflikt beschuldigen sich die Kriegsparteien gegenseitig der Desinformation. Eine Recherche zeigt, wie Israel mit 3D-Videos um Deutungshoheit kämpft. Ausserdem: die Kantone und die Prämienverbilligungen. Und: die Reportage von der mexikanischen Grenze. Krieg um die Wahrheit: Israels 3D-Videos Seit zwei Jahren veröffentlicht das israelische Militär 3D-Videos zu seinen Angriffszielen: Spitäler und Wohngebäude, unter denen sich eine terroristische Kommandozentrale oder ein Waffenlager befinden sollen. Sie sollen belegen, dass die Angriffe auf zivile Infrastruktur gerechtfertigt sind. Die 3D-Videos gehen um die Welt: verbreitet in den sozialen Medien, von TV-Stationen und Nachrichtenagenturen. Obwohl sie als «Illustrationen» gekennzeichnet sind, werden die 3D-Modelle als Visualisierungen der Realität präsentiert. Eine Recherche. Kantone unter Druck: Kostenschub bei den Prämienverbilligungen Die steigenden Krankenkassenprämien sind für viele Menschen in der Schweiz eine Belastung. Parallel dazu steigen auch die Ausgaben für die Prämienverbilligungen an. Wie stark die Bürgerinnen und Bürger entlastet werden, ist von Kanton zu Kanton sehr unterschiedlich. Das soll sich ändern: Ab 2026 müssen sich die Kantone stärker an der Finanzierung der Prämienverbilligung beteiligen. Doch für einige Kantone ist das eine grosse finanzielle Last. Die «Rundschau» fragt nach. Kartelle und Fentanyl: Reportage von der mexikanischen Grenze An der mexikanischen Grenze sind Tausende mexikanische Soldaten im Einsatz, um Produktion und Export der tödlichen Droge Fentanyl zu stoppen. Auf der US-amerikanischen Seite patrouillieren an der Grenzmauer hochmoderne amerikanische Panzer und Drohnen. Sie setzen das von Präsident Trump versprochene harte Vorgehen gegen den Drogen- und Menschenschmuggel um. Die Reportage zeigt die Spannungen in der Grenzregion – denn das berüchtigte Sinaloa-Kartell wird nun von beiden Seiten angegriffen.

This episode takes a hard look at the controversies swirling around Charlie Kirk's death and the broader struggle over narrative control in American politics. The hosts reflect on Kirk's influence with younger audiences, the pressures and alleged “interventions” he faced, and claims that he rejected a massive funding offer tied to taking a more pro-Israel line. They trace how those tensions intersected with Turning Point events, campus debates, and the role of high-profile figures like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Dave Smith, and Marjorie Taylor Greene, arguing that the real fight is over who gets the microphone and how the message is framed.Throughout, they revisit the upheaval inside right-leaning media, speculation about finances and incentives, and the scramble to fill the void on college campuses and podcasts. Rather than pretending to have definitive answers, they emphasize uncertainty, push listeners to examine primary sources, and urge more people to speak openly—even imperfectly—about uncomfortable topics. If you've wondered how narratives take hold, why certain stories dominate while others disappear, or what it looks like when political, donor, and media interests collide, this discussion lays out the claims, counterclaims, and unresolved questions driving the current moment.00:00:00 Introduction & setting the stage00:06:45 Ian's background and worldview shifts00:17:30 Media narratives and controlled messaging00:28:10 Speaking out and breaking away from groupthink00:40:25 The role of faith, values, and truth-seeking00:54:00 Social media influence and censorship01:05:20 Daily Wire, influencers, and political funding01:17:40 The Hasbara PR strategy explained01:33:00 Propaganda, Gaza, and the framing of genocide01:55:23 Outro
