Welcome to Day 2561 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – Destiny & Destination – I Dare You Not To Bore Me With The Bible. Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2561 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2561 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today is the 42nd lesson in our segment, Theology Thursday. Utilizing excerpts from a book titled: I Dare You Not To Bore Me With The Bible written by Hebrew Bible scholar and professor the late Dr. Michael S Heiser, we will invest a couple of years going through the entire Bible, exploring short Biblical lessons that you may not have received in Bible classes or Church. The Bible is a wonderful book. Its pages reveal the epic story of God's redemption of humankind and the long, bitter conflict against evil. Yet it's also a book that seems strange to us. While God's Word was written for us, it wasn't written to us. Today's lesson is: “Destiny & Destination.” “I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain,” Paul said while imprisoned. His ambitions are repeated a few verses later: “When therefore I have completed this ... I will leave for Spain by way of you” (Rom 15:28). It's certainly ambitious for him to be making travel plans. But Paul wasn't making casual conversation or planning a vacation. He believed his life and ministry would not end until he reached Spain. We aren't sure if Paul made it, but he was passionate about getting there. Why? He saw himself in the prophecy of Isaiah 66. Day of Salvation Throughout his letters, Paul quotes Isaiah and other Old Testament books to show that the long-promised day of salvation would come during his lifetime. In the Old Testament, the Jewish belief in Jesus as the Messiah was preceded by something Paul referred to as “the fullness of the Gentiles” (Rom 11:25). In Romans 9-11, Paul says that Gentile (non-Jew) inclusion in the people of God was made possible by the hearts of the Jewish people being temporarily hardened (11:25-26). Accomplishing the mission of Gentile evangelism would undo this hardening. Only then would Paul's longing for the Jews to believe in Jesus come to full fruition. And only then would the deliverer (Jesus) come again from Zion (11:26). Isaiah 66:18-20 prophesies that the Lord would gather all nations to see His glory. He would give them a “sign” of His promised salvation. The sign would be delivered by Jewish exiles, sent by God into far-off nations—specifically, the lands of Tarshish, Put, Lud, Tubal, and Javan. The conversion of the Gentiles would result in the Jews from those nations returning to the Lord. The Sign Paul Saw Paul interpreted Isaiah 66 through Christian eyes. The “sign” (TH, 'ot,) was the virgin-born Jesus (compare Isa 7:14—“The Lord himself will give you a sign”).- At Pentecost, Jews whose ancestors were exiled to foreign nations came to Jerusalem from those nations. They witnessed a sign of the Holy Spirit coming upon the disciples, heard the gospel miraculously in their own language, and...

Ever wondered who's really in charge during a walk—the owner or the dog? Today, we dive into this age-old question, exploring the subtle power dynamics between humans and their four-legged companions. Are we leading them, or are they leading us?But that's not the only power struggle we're unpacking.

Ben M. Freeman's previous two books, 2021's Jewish Pride: Rebuilding a People and 2022's Reclaiming Our Story: The Pursuit of Jewish Pride were powerful arguments for rejecting Jew-hate, both internal and external. His latest book, The Jews: An Indigenous People, coming out Feb. 27, is the first scholarly book to tackle the topic of the Jewish people's indigenous ties to the land of Israel. We discuss the defining characteristics of what it means to BE a Jew, and how that relates to us in the modern, post-October 7th world. Hosted by Courtney Hazlett, Rabbi Diana Fersko, and Josh Kross, each episode of How to Be a Jew takes a look at a current, cultural topic and what it means for us as Jews, and how we react to it because we are Jews.

Jonathan Rauch is one of the clearest thinkers writing today about the philosophical and sociological interconnections between democracy and science, as detailed in his last book, The Constitution of Knowledge, about which we had a fascinating podcast discussion a year or two ago. When I heard his newest book was due to appear this month, I was eager to have him back on. This new book, Cross Purposes, Christianity's Broken Bargain with Democracy was released yesterday. It was a surprising take on the subject. Rauch is an atheist, a Jew, and homosexual, so one might have expected an attack on the failings of Christianity. Nothing could be further from the truth. Rauch argues that Christianity offers moral bases that mesh well with Madisonian democracy, and that it is necessary for the Christian community to tap into these if democracy in the US is to be resuscitated. There is a lot to unpack there, and that is precisely what we did. He and I share atheist and Jewish roots, and we agree on many features of both philosophy and religion. But our perspectives on both the actual moral fabric of Christianity, and the extent to which society should give special treatment to religious teaching, and to what extent the positive aspects of Christian religious theology, including the theology of groups like the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, means that we should respect that theology, differ. Because I respect Rauch as a writer and a thinker so much, I thought it would be useful to take time to explore these differences, in order to ascertain to what extent his thesis was viable, and also to allow listeners access to a thoughtful and respectful discussion of to what extent Christian religious teachings have a key role to play in the moral framework of a healthy democratic society in the United States.As always, the discussion was educational, and illuminating. It is an important issue at the current time, and I am very happy we could have a deeper dive into it with someone so thoughtful and knowledgeable. I hope you enjoy the discussion, including the animated give and take at times, as much as both Jonathan and I did.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

It's Wednesday, February 5th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Pakistani Christian brothers released from prison Praise God! Two Christian brothers are now free from prison in Pakistan. A court acquitted the twin brothers last month. Eighteen-year-olds Sahil and Raheel Shahid were facing false Islamic blasphemy accusations. The brothers' attorney told Morning Star News, “We believe that this case was a conspiracy against the Christian residents so that vested interests could grab their land and properties.” False blasphemy accusations are an increasing problem in Pakistan, a 97%-Muslim nation, The country is ranked 8th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult places to be a Christian. Countries in which religious nationalism predominates Pew Research released a global report on religious nationalism. The report identified religious nationalists as people who believe in the historically predominant religion of their country and believe that their religion should influence their laws and leaders. Religious nationalism was most common in Kenya for countries with Christian roots. For Buddhists, the country with the most religious nationalism was Thailand. For Hindus, it was India. For Jews, it was Israel. And for Muslims, it was Indonesia and Bangladesh. Religious nationalism for Christians was most common in Africa and South America while being the least common in Europe. The United States was somewhere in-between with just 6% of adults identifying as religious nationalists. Psalm 33:12 says, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance.” Senator Cassidy explained his conditional support of RFK, Jr. In the United States, Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, a moderate Republican who voted to convict President Donald Trump in February 2021 of “incitement of insurrection”, was a key vote as member of the Senate Finance Committee which considered Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to be the next Secretary of Health and Human Services. As a physician, Senator Cassidy was especially concerned with Kennedy's questions about a possible link between childhood vaccines and autism. Before the committee vote, Cassidy made this statement from the Senate floor. CASSIDY: “Now, Mr. Kennedy and the administration reached out seeking to reassure me regarding their commitment to protecting the public health benefit of vaccination. To this end, Mr. Kennedy and the administration committed that he and I would have an unprecedentedly close, collaborative working relationship if he is confirmed. “We will meet or speak multiple times a month. If confirmed, he will maintain the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommendations without changes. CDC will not remove statements on their website, pointing out that vaccines do not cause autism. “He committed that they help committee chair, whether it's me or someone else, may choose a representative on any board or commission formed to review vaccine safety. These commitments, and my expectation that we can have a great working relationship to make America healthy again, is the basis of my support. “If Mr. Kennedy is confirmed, I will use my authority as chairman of the Senate committee, with oversight of HHS, to rebuff any attempt to remove the public's access to life-saving vaccines without iron-clad, causational, scientific evidence that can be accepted and defended before the mainstream scientific community and before Congress.” RFK, Jr. voted out of Senate Committee On Tuesday, the U.S. Senate Finance Committee voted to advance President Donald Trump's nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. The committee voted 14-13 along party lines. Committee Chair Mike Crapo of Idaho oversaw the committee vote. CRAPO: “We now have not only a quorum, but all members of the committee are present. I move that the committee favorably report the nomination of the Honorable Robert F. Kennedy, Jr of California to be Secretary of Health and Human Services. Is there a second?” COMMITTEE MEMBER: “Second.” CLERK: “Mr. Chairman, the final tally was 14 ayes, 13 nays. CRAPO: “The vote was 14-13. The nomination is reported favorably.” Kennedy's nomination now goes before the full U.S. Senate where he needs a simple majority or a minimum of 51 votes to be confirmed. Trump: Military will no longer pay for abortion travel Last Tuesday, the Trump administration announced the military will no longer cover travel expenses for services members to get abortions. U.S. Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama notably stood against the Defense Department's funding for abortion under Biden's leadership. He said, “For the past two years, I have been sounding the alarm about the Pentagon's illegal and immoral practice of using taxpayer dollars to fund abortions. I took a lot of heat when I stood alone for nearly a year in holding senior Pentagon promotions over this—but as of today, it was all worth it.” Galatians 6:9 says, “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” Department of Education getting phased down The Trump administration is beginning to scale back the Department of Education. Already, the administration has placed dozens of employees on paid administrative leave. This is part of a broader effort to remove hires based on diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. The administration is also working on an executive order that would begin the process of eliminating the Education Department entirely. GDP slowed In economic news, the U.S. Gross Domestic Product slowed down during the last three months of 2024. The economy grew by 2.3% during the fourth quarter of last year, down from 3.1% during the third quarter. Economists had expected 2.5% growth for the fourth quarter. Also, the Federal Reserve held its key interest rate at 4.25%-4.5%, saying inflation remains somewhat elevated. The Fed cut interest rates three times since September 2024 and President Trump is calling for more cuts. Virginia voted down anti-homeschooling bill Virginia lawmakers voted down a bill that would have eliminated the religious exemption from the state's public education requirements. The bill would have added many regulations for parents who educate their children at home for religious reasons. Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin wrote on X, “I stand with parents across Virginia in opposition to Senate Bill 1031. We cannot allow this attack on homeschooling to become law.” Court: San Francisco must rehire employees who refused COVID shot And finally, a federal appeals court ruled in favor of Christian employees who were fired for not getting a COVID-19 shot in California. The city of San Francisco must now rehire workers who were terminated for refusing the shot. The ruling stated, “Appellants' coerced decision between their faith and their livelihood imposed emotional damage which cannot now be fully undone. … [San Francisco's] finding that Appellants' religious beliefs were insufficient to warrant any accommodations can only be described as a ‘dignitary affront.' ... The circumstances surrounding Appellants' termination constitute irreparable harm.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, February 5th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

What if happiness is the key to unlocking the soul's true beauty and potential? Join us as we explore the profound connection between joy, the soul, and our spiritual journeys. Drawing from the mystical teachings of the Talmud, we discuss the soul's temporary residence in our bodies and its quest for perfection and closeness to Hashem. We'll share inspiring stories, including how two men were recognized by Elijah the prophet for their infectious joy and ability to uplift others. This episode highlights the delicate balance within Judaism, where laughter and joy are used to open hearts and minds while cautioning against the pitfalls of excessive mockery and sadness. Listen to the tale of the Magid of Jerusalem, who masterfully used humor to make Torah teachings more accessible, illustrating the transformative power of happiness.Continuing on this joyful journey, we examine how a sense of joy enhances the observance of mitzvahs, making religious practice more fulfilling and spiritually uplifting. Our discussion emphasizes the importance of nurturing simcha, the joy that is a mitzvah in itself, and how it can empower us to achieve greatness. By recognizing the beauty and perfection in the Torah, we uncover immense happiness that can transform our spiritual experience. Whether it's through joyful learning or the heartwarming practice of commandments, maintaining a sense of joy and comfort is crucial. Join us in reflecting on how embracing this joy can profoundly impact our daily lives and spiritual paths._____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on September 24, 2024.Released as Podcast on February 5, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: 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.

"Jesus was just a common Jew who wanted the best for everyone." "Jesus was a liberal first-century rabbi." Those memes have captured much of the public's imagination about Jesus. But they both are 180 degrees off the mark, especially when we read what Jesus said about himself. He said, "I am Lord of the Sabbath," and "I am greater than the Temple". And certainly those don't square with the Jesus-the-liberalizing-rabbi meme. In this episode we explore what Jesus' self-speak indicates about how he perceived himself. I also offer an extended reflection on thinking about thinking. What is the best argument for the existence of mind? Instead of probing how inert matter produced consciousness, what counter (older) argument has more explanatory power? I also muse aloud about how, for the first time in my adult life, I do not feel like the Federal government is against us. What do I mean?
Are the Jewish people still God's chosen nation, or did something change after Jesus?
Jews wear these weird boxes on their arms and head. They are placed there for some specific holy reason but to an outsider it's unclear why it has to be worn to pray. These "phylacteries" have an aesthetic that could be misconstrued, but once you know the truth, you won't want to take them off. Sruly Meyer, a kosher chef and return guest to the podcast, offers a comprehensive look into the beauty and holiness of tefillin. Using his very own to personally teach us, Chaz Volk, host of Bad Jew, takes the opportunity to learn about the specific details of the Tefillin that you might've missed putting it on the first time! 00:00 Introduction 04:15 "Tefillin Stands Revolutionize Outreach" 08:29 "Neglected Ritual Significance" 09:46 A ritual before the Torah. 13:15 Obedience to G-d 17:14 Spiritual community 20:21 "When Will Moshiach Come?" 25:22 Design cases 28:11 Chaz's first tefillin 29:15 Unexpected Tefillin Lesson in store 33:36 The 4-stemmed shine confusion 37:59 Your existence 40:29 Can women wear tefillin? 44:01 Spiritual meets Physical 48:07 Find Tefillin Stands Near You 49:03 The 4-stemmed shine ANSWERED by Chabad.org 52:42 Conclusion About Sruly Meyer: Sruly runs a marketing agency in Hollywood, Florida.

The Greatest Lie Ever Told? A Deep Dive Into Scriptural Secrets In this daring and thought-provoking episode, the host ventures into a realm of bold biblical exploration that challenges deeply held beliefs and traditional interpretations. He candidly shares the inspiration behind the episode, originating from a re-evaluation of the story of the golden calf in the Bible. Despite the potential backlash, he presents a theory that he believes could revolutionize the understanding of Judeo-Christian beliefs. The episode delves into the controversial notion that Jesus was not a Jew, a theory supported by a selective interpretation of key biblical scriptures. Throughout the episode, the host emphasizes his meticulous study, despite acknowledging his own limitations as a non-scholar of the Bible. He calls for listeners to engage with this theory with an open mind, urging them to conduct their own research and delve into over 3,000 scriptures for context. Engaging with canonical texts like Galatians, Genesis, Deuteronomy, and more, the host builds a case for distinguishing between Jews and Israelites, questioning longstanding assumptions about religious lineage and identity. He invites listeners to become Bereans, diligently seeking the truth by examining scriptures themselves rather than accepting this theory at face value. This episode promises to spark conversation and debate, encouraging a fresh examination of historical and spiritual narratives. Will this revelation ignite change, or will it be dismissed as heretical? Join the discussion and explore the profound implications of this audacious biblical theory.

There is a difference between being anti-war, pro-peace, and simply saying you are while your actions invoke conflict. How the United States is handling the Israel situation is not smart, America first, or part of some 4D chess game; it is a direct assault with a public plan and potential consequences that include more global conflict, especially with Arab nations. With the president's plan to take ownership of Gaza and bring “great stability” comes the ethnic cleansing of its people, the expansion of Israel, and the payoff of luxury vacation spots for the wealthy. It's the playbook of Jared Kushner who called it “oceanfront property” back in February 2024. The first payoff came with the naming of Trump Heights. The second will be hotels Gaza, as a NYT article put it in October 2024: “The Trump Organization was in talks about Israeli hotels before the Hamas attack last year.” Trump supporters are saying it's a strategic 4D chess move to take the land from Israel; it's actually the opposite. It's a blatant case of the big brother taking something for the little brother. Others are saying let's wait to see what happens, or ‘do you have a better idea', or ‘you just want to see more Jews killed'. But we are seeing what's happening, and the better idea would be to follow Washington's advice: "It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliance with any portion of the foreign world.” Washington even warned about countries like Israel and the danger of political parties in creating favoritism toward the former: “It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which finds a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions. Thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another.”And what is happening domestically is just as bad. The cleaning out of the USAID, CIA, FBI, etc., all sounds great, but what MAGA neglects to realize is that the house cleaning is due to new tenants who believe in expansionism and technocracy not liberty, from Musk to Altman and Ellison. The money being saved is going to be relocated to programs like STARGATE and to countries like Israel, which is exempt from nearly every major action, including foreign aid and weapons sales with another $1 billion being allocated for Israel this week: 4,700 1,000-pound bombs, worth more than $700 million, as well as armored bulldozers built by Caterpillar, worth more than $300 million. Furthermore, all the things once rejected by Christians, conservatives, and conspiracy theorists are now being demanded: cryptocurrency, the North American Union, DNA specific injections, support of the Deep State (Israel), etc. And nearly all the major issues for Republicans, and especially MAGA, are supported by Israel: porn, pedophilia, LGBTQ, transgender surgeries and hormones, circumcision, DEI and racism, and illegal immigration. In fact, after a letter protesting Trump's deportation policy was signed by 88 Jewish organizations, including HIAS, it only took a few days for many illegals to be set free as NBC News reported: "some have already been released back into the United States on a monitoring program.” Israel also wants criticism in the U.S. silenced, and that is exactly what Trump has continued during his second term: “my administration will inform every college president that if you do not end anti-semitic propaganda they will lose their accreditation and federal taxpayer support.” This has led to the arrest of protesters and a muzzling of debate. Even the so-called peace agreement and ceasefire has been violated numerous times by Israel with no mention by either party, let alone repercussions. Now the U.S. Justice Department, coming off 4 years of weaponization against conservatives, is going to be weaponized via a task force to “fight antisemitism in schools and universities,” or effectively to go after Democrats, while the Department of Education, set to be dismantled, will spend its final days “investigating five universities for alleged antiseptic harassment.” This is alongside the censorship operations of any criticism of Israel. The U.S. is also withdrawing from the UN Human Rights Council, not because of MAGA, but because they support supplying food and water to Gaza. Ever notice why Republicans attack China and Islam, while Democrats attack Russia and white Christians, yet Israel and Jews are always untouchable?There is no longer any intelligent person who can say Israel, at the very least through tightly knit and mutually beneficial backdoor deals, doesn't control the United States of America. The little messes Trump is cleaning up were made by the same people giving him obvious marching orders so that he is presented as a hero while Israel raids our treasury. Probably why Israel's PM brought Trump a golden pager at their first meeting; so he could be on call for the real Deep State.

What if happiness is the key to unlocking the soul's true beauty and potential? Join us as we explore the profound connection between joy, the soul, and our spiritual journeys. Drawing from the mystical teachings of the Talmud, we discuss the soul's temporary residence in our bodies and its quest for perfection and closeness to Hashem. We'll share inspiring stories, including how two men were recognized by Elijah the prophet for their infectious joy and ability to uplift others. This episode highlights the delicate balance within Judaism, where laughter and joy are used to open hearts and minds while cautioning against the pitfalls of excessive mockery and sadness. Listen to the tale of the Magid of Jerusalem, who masterfully used humor to make Torah teachings more accessible, illustrating the transformative power of happiness.Continuing on this joyful journey, we examine how a sense of joy enhances the observance of mitzvahs, making religious practice more fulfilling and spiritually uplifting. Our discussion emphasizes the importance of nurturing simcha, the joy that is a mitzvah in itself, and how it can empower us to achieve greatness. By recognizing the beauty and perfection in the Torah, we uncover immense happiness that can transform our spiritual experience. Whether it's through joyful learning or the heartwarming practice of commandments, maintaining a sense of joy and comfort is crucial. Join us in reflecting on how embracing this joy can profoundly impact our daily lives and spiritual paths._____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on September 24, 2024.Released as Podcast on February 5, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: 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 this episode, we sit down with attorney and advocate Julie Marzouk to explore the intersection of immigration, antisemitism, and violence against women—and what the first weeks of Trump's second term reveal about the legal landscape for combating antisemitism. We discuss the Trump administration's executive order on antisemitism, new federal investigations into college campuses, and the formation of a multi-agency task force to address rising antisemitic incidents in schools and universities. How will these policies impact Jewish students and communities? We also examine Trump's aggressive immigration enforcement, including the Texas National Guard's expanded authority to arrest migrants, and what this means for broader legal and humanitarian concerns. Join us for a deep dive into the legal and policy challenges shaping the Jewish community today—plus what advocates like Julie Marzouk are doing to fight for justice.
This is the story behind the question that Jesus was asked about divorce. There was more at stake in that exchange than we usually realize!

Send us a textGood morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)Spiritbuilding.com - (premium quality paperback)Youtube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comMatthew 22Jesus presents the parable of the wedding feast. A king holds a banquet for his son. They invite many who are unwilling to come. Many excuses are given. The king sends armies to destroy them! He then invites people off the street until the room is filled. One man comes unprepared and is sent out. “For many will be called, but few chosen.” This indicates that the kingdom requires responsiveness and faithfulness. The rest of the chapter consists of Jewish leaders trying to trap Jesus and diminish His influence. They ask about paying taxes. They ask about marriage in heaven. They question Him about the greatest law. On every occasion, He answers with integrity and righteousness. Jesus then asks them a single question about David and the Psalms, and they cannot answer Him. Jesus' question about David was a loaded one. They knew from prophecy the Messiah would be David's son. And yet David refers to Him as Lord. How can that be? The answer is that Christ is eternal and divine. The Messiah is Jesus! We would do well to embrace that truth. Instead of questioning Him, we can learn from Him. His answers here about paying taxes, eternal life, and loving God first, are powerful truths in our lives. In the end, we must realize the Father is calling us all to the feast for His Son. We must choose to attend the feast, give proper homage to the Son, and be faithful to Him. The alternative is God's wrath. God of limitless might, we know You will execute judgment on those who reject Your Son. You have called and invited and opened the door, and judgment is coming for all who make excuses. Lord God, help us to cast away all doubt and every temptation to turn from Your Son. Give us the wisdom to hear Him. His teachings on difficult topics like taxes and government, marriage and eternity, and loving You and others are exactly the beautiful truths You have provided for our good. Strengthen us to not just be the called, but the chosen. Thought Questions: - Do you ever make excuses when called to obey God and honor His Son? Will you resolve to cast those aside and answer the invitations of God? - You may be tested by questions like the Jews did with Jesus. Are you prepared to be like Him and always answer with humility and integrity? - Do you believe Jesus when He said the greatest two commandments are to love God fully and love your neighbor? How do you show that?

After the Exodus, the Jewish people left Egypt, with no plans to return. But the Egyptians followed them in hot pursuit, and seven days later the nation was surrounded, encircled by their enemies, with their backs against the sea. God gave the command: Go. The Talmud tells us that there was one man who leapt in before anyone else. When the waters reached his nostrils, the sea split. For this act of bravery, he was awarded with the eternal rights of the monarchy. Who was this man? What is so significant about his leap? Why does leaping into the water qualify a person to be a king? In this very interesting episode of the Parsha Podcast recorded in the TORCH Centre, we learn all about Nachshon Ben Aminadav and the power of his bravery.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE to TORCH: 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.

Without Immigrants', are overwhelmingly being supported by one group of people: instead of Mexicans, it's actually every religious and political denomination of the Judaism. In fact, a group of 88 Jewish groups, including a massive facilitator of illegal immigration, HIAS, wrote a letter to the President urging him to cease deportation operations. Within days of the letter NBC News reported "that some have already been released back into the United States on a monitoring program.” His other major administrative decisions include supposedly throttling back DEI, Transgenderism, and war, while simultaneously supporting the biggest backers of these things, especially after the PM of Israel just visited to draw up plans to expand Israel into all surrounding Arab nations. Something interesting is happening elsewhere in the media too: Tucker Carlson told Piers Morgan that Britain didn't win WW2 because their restrictions on guns, immigration regulation, and protest, not to mention the power of the banks, effectively makes the country a conquered entity. These are precisely the issues that brought the world to war with Germany, but for opposite reasons. The forces behind all of this get to basketball stars, comedians and UFC fighters. Dwight Howard was threatened by Adam Silver, Commissioner of the NBA, to remove two words from social media in support of Palestine; Bobby Lee was promised a free trip to Israel before realizing he had to pay for it by tweeting about how great the country was and tagging the government; Bryce Mitchell is in trouble with the UFC because he dared to say that at some point Hitler probably just cared about Germans. Things get even stranger this week with the recent Grammys which featured imagery of the black cube, coming weeks after Trump's image was spread online with the head of a goat that had its horns pointing downward. In tarot we find the Devilish goat sitting on a black goat with his horns and torch pointing downward to illuminate the abyss. That abyss is the 3D world, now being further expanded via Oracle, OpenAI, Softbank, Nvidia, etc., under the Stargate Project. Both Ellison and Altman are also of the same ilk mentioned above, and in fact Ellison claims most of the world's advanced technology is coming from Israel. From MIT and Google to IBM we find usage of the same black cube imagery. The CEO of Softbank also told Altman that there is nothing demonic about the forces we are summoning because they don't eat protein. They instead feed off of energy. This is exactly what Gordie Rose and Rudolf Steiner warned of too. In the Matrix films the machines didn't eat humans either, but instead liquefied them to power their AI. -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITEPAYPALCashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.
