Explore the profound Messianic reflections in the life of Yosef Ben Yisrael through Torah Reading 34. Join Rod Thomas of the Messianic Torah Observer as he delves into Genesis 37:1-36, drawing parallels between Joseph/Yosef and Yahoshua Messiah. Discover the spiritual insights and prophetic shadows that enrich our understanding of faith and covenant.   Context of the Discussion The commentary begins with the date of publication, marking it as the 23rd day of the 3rd Month 6025 (June 20, 2025). The author notes that this installment reflects on the themes found in the specified Torah reading, which details the early life of Joseph and his relationship with his family. The author encourages readers to follow along using their own Bibles, although he will not read the entire passage verbatim.   Patriarchal Sojourners The document discusses the concept of the patriarchs, particularly Jacob (Ya'achov), settling in Canaan, the land promised to them by God. It references the Book of Hebrews, noting that the patriarchs lived as sojourners in the land of promise, looking forward to a greater inheritance. Jacob is highlighted as the third patriarch to settle in Canaan, a place of significance for his family.   The Story of Joseph The narrative transitions to Joseph, who is introduced as a favored son of Jacob. The author explains that Joseph's story becomes central to the continuation of God's covenant with the patriarchs, despite the rejection and hardships he faces from his brothers. Joseph is portrayed as a type of Jesus (Yahoshua Messiah), representing salvation and preservation for Israel.   Dysfunctional Family Dynamics The document elaborates on the complex family dynamics within Jacob's household, particularly Joseph's relationship with his brothers, who harbor jealousy and resentment due to Jacob's favoritism. Joseph's role as a "tattler" and the implications of his dreams, which foretell his future authority over his brothers, further exacerbate tensions. The author highlights how Joseph's dreams are perceived negatively by his brothers, leading to increased hostility.   The Conspiracy Against Joseph As the narrative unfolds, the brothers conspire to kill Joseph upon seeing him approach. Reuben, the eldest brother, intervenes to save him from murder, suggesting they throw him into a pit instead. Ultimately, Joseph is sold to Midianite merchants, and the brothers deceive their father by fabricating a story about Joseph's death. This act of betrayal sets the stage for Joseph's eventual rise to power in Egypt, which serves a greater divine purpose.    Spiritual and Prophetic Implications The author draws parallels between Joseph's experiences and the life of Jesus, emphasizing themes of rejection, suffering, and eventual exaltation. Both figures are seen as beloved sons who face betrayal but ultimately fulfill God's plan for salvation. The commentary concludes with reflections on the prophetic nature of Joseph's story and its relevance to the understanding of Jesus' mission.   Conclusion In summary, the document provides a rich exploration of the themes found in Genesis 37, focusing on the life of Joseph and its connections to broader spiritual narratives. The author encourages readers to reflect on the lessons learned from Joseph's experiences and the overarching message of divine providence in the face of human betrayal.

Given 6/16/2025 by Rabbi Mendel Kessin Weekly Hashkafa Shiur #179 torahthinking.org

In this episode of the Shifting Dimensions Podcast, Jummie speaks with Isabella Young, a survivor of a Messianic cult controlled by her ex-husband. Isabella, also known as Bella, shares her harrowing experiences of manipulation, loss, and ultimately breaking free. She delves into her journey of healing and spiritual awakening, shedding light on how she helps others escape similar situations. Bella discusses the realization that manipulation extends beyond cults to global systems of control and offers tools for healing and empowerment. The conversation touches on topics like self-love, nature connection, and tapping into higher consciousness. Additionally, Bella explores the notion that humanity is entangled in a larger system of global control and how we can reclaim our freedom. This episode includes sensitive content such as discussions on suicidal ideation, death, and sexual abuse, so listeners' discretion is advised.Where to find Bella: https://feelingbetternaturally.love/Send us a textLove the show?

John McKee delivers the June 2025 Outreach Israel News update. Today's Messianic people, who are a part of Messianic Jewish congregations and synagogues, do not know how blessed they actually are. Many Messianic people do not have a Messianic assembly to attend, and as such usually have to fellowship in various other ways. Some of this may involve participation in a church, or a small home fellowship. What are some of the difficulties and challenges which need to be recognized, especially as we think about the future?

Israel's Rock of Protection

Not Them - Only Hashem

Messianic Apologetics editor John McKee reviews some of the difficulties which have arisen from 1 Thessalonians 2:14-16. Did the Apostle Paul solely blame the Jewish people corporate, for the death of the Messiah? Given the rise in anti-Semitism and anti-Judaism today, this is a passage which needs to be evaluated. This is then followed by a review of important stories and issues from the past day or so, largely witnessed on social media.

Not Them - Only Hashem

Israel's Rock of Protection

Today's Memorial of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of the Church, is celebrated annually on the Monday after Pentecost. It was officially added to the Church's calendar by Pope Francis in 2018.  As outlined in an address by Pope John Paul II, the Blessed Mother's role as Mother of the Church can be traced back to four significant events. The first is the Annunciation, where Mary was called to give her consent to the coming of the Messianic Kingdom, which would take place with the formation of the Church. The second event which helps clarify the Blessed Mother's role in the formation of the Church happens at the wedding feast of Cana. Mary asks her Son to exercise his Messianic power in changing water into wine, implanting faith in the lives of the first century disciples.  The third event takes place at Calvary. The Crucified Christ proclaims Mary's motherhood of all the faithful when he proclaims: “Woman, behold your Son.” This was not just addressed to John the Evangelist, Pope John Paul II explained, but to all the faithful, including ourselves 1992 years later.  The fourth instance of Mary's motherhood of the Church is recognized by St. Luke in Acts 1:14 in today's alternative reading, in which Luke describes the early Christians gathering together in prayer. Specifically, it states that all the apostles, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers were present and united in prayer. This verse follows our Lord's Ascension into heaven as they were waiting for the arrival of the promised Holy Spirit. The verse highlights the unity of the early Church and the Blessed Mother's prayerful presence imploring the gift of the Holy Spirit for all, the same Holy Spirit that had overshadowed her during the Annunciation.  The Church is like a mother, generating life by giving birth, but also helping her children to grow through the sacraments and accompanying us through our entire lives. For St. Jerome, “The Church is nothing other than the souls of those who believe in Christ,” carefully watched over by the Mother of the Church, our Most Blessed Virgin Mary.  Blessings,Fr. Kevin MacDonald, C.Ss.R.

Ted Pearce is my returning guest. In this show he shares that his metaquest/virtual reality tour of Israel app is now live!Ted Pearce lived his teenage years in Beaumont Texas as an atheist. It was not until he decided to read the Bible, to find contradiction within it, did God reveal Himself mightily to Ted. A radically core shaking experience by the Holy Spirit in 1990 brought Ted to become a believer and he has been a worshipper for the Lord ever since.Ted had already been playing professionally as a musician, but the Lord refined His gift towards worship and Ted soon recorded his first messianic album, "Shield of David" (1991).He later put together a Christian rock band releasing 2 very different albums Nomadic Farmers (1997) and Big Methuselah (1999).But his desire to bless Israel led him to record a new messianic project, which was called "Letter to the Hebrews" and released in Jerusalem on The Day of Pentecost 2001. Ted's debut on Messianic worship label Galilee of the Nations followed in October of 2002 with "Zealous Over Zion".  He has since recorded several more CDs. Ted's vision is to see all the sons of Adam turn to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and believes that he can help build bridges of shalom.

Messianic Jewish musicians utilize their craft to express their faith in Yeshua in distinctly Jewish ways. Shai Sol is one such musician who brings a distinctive Israeli sound to the Messianic Jewish music world. Her musical journey began early, sparked by a childhood introduction to the darbukha. This path eventually led her to compete on the Israeli reality TV series HaKochav HaBah, where she famously and courageously revealed her discipleship to Jesus, making quite a splash. This episode explores the development of her unique sound, her extensive experience with the band MIQEDEM, her collaborations with other Israeli artists, and the passion she has to draw her audience closer to God.

Messianic Apologetics editor John McKee reviews one important area, where Theistic Evolution has negatively affected Biblical doctrine. This is then followed by a review of important stories and issues from the past day or so, largely witnessed on social media.

If you think the American evangelical fixation over Israel's well-being is simply about "doing the right thing," my hunch is you'd be wrong. As a southern-born kid who grew up in the baptist faith, there's a lot I came away with despite that fact I'm now a 51-year old atheist. i'm not saying I didn't come away with some good values from that exposure to organized religion, but I'd like to think my family upbringing had an outsized role.What I do believe, however, is that protestant evangelical ties to the G.O.P. have everything to do with the Nixon-born "southern strategy" (dogwhistle racism, outright homophobia and now transphobia and xenophobia showing itself in spurts and fits when politically necessary). Because of that partnership, defending Israel is sacrosanct to the Republican (Democratic, too, if we're being honest) party's DNA. It's why a simpleton like Donald Trump gets so frustrated he and his party don't enjoy greater support from the Jewish American voting bloc. Like a long list of things Republicans are passionate about (the debt/deficit, immigration, reproductive rights come to mind), Israel's security isn't important to them because they're virtuous. Trump appointing former baptist minister-turned Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee to be the U.S. ambassador to Israel is about appeasing the evangelical voting bloc, who simply see Israel as being a 'necessity' to set the table for Jesus' return, per the book of Revelations. If I were Jewish and/or Israeli, it would insult me, and maybe that's one reason voters don't warm to Republican ideology. Huckabee, for his part, is outraged European allies are daring to have cross words for Israel in the midst of it's 20-month long seige on Gaza. Seriously, can Israel do no wrong with the otherwise "pro-life" evangelical Americans? Even former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert is sounding the "genocidal" alarms. Is he somehow anti-Zionist or antisemitic now? That's the sort of lingo the right flings about anytime student protests come up at college and university campuses, after all.------While we're looking (and coming up empty) for some actual 'Christian values' in the G.O.P. playbook, their threatening cuts to social safety nets - Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security - seem like reasons for some Messianic table-flipping, no?Jay Bookman's latest op-ed - "There's no way to cut $800 billion from Medicaid without hitting bone" - goes right to the heart of the matter:"... if you still believe the administration, they're going to make those cuts without anyone losing benefits. As White House official Russell Vought put in last week, “This bill will preserve and protect the programs, the social safety net, but it will make it much more common sense. No one will lose coverage as a result.”If your BS detector isn't ringing by now, you need to take it in for repair.Confronted with the absurdity of claiming that you can cut $800 billion without canceling health care coverage, Trump officials retreat to their fallback position. Yes, they admit, they'll be cutting benefits, but only for those who don't deserve it. “Medicaid does not belong to people who are here illegally, and it does not belong to capable and able-bodied men who refuse to work,” another White House official told Politico. “So no one is getting cut.”Once again, though, your BS detector ought to be blaring. Under existing federal law, undocumented immigrants are already barred from getting Medicaid. They're promising to cut benefits to people who are already not getting those benefits. So no savings there.And the truth is, most of the able-bodied men who are too lazy to work are also too lazy to worry about jumping through the hoops needed to get Medicaid health-care coverage. Such men do exist, no doubt, but in numbers far too small to generate $800 billion in savings."More on that in the Thursday podcast.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Religions reporter Rossella Tercatin joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Nearly two years after the ancient, nearly complete Codex Sassoon bible was first introduced at the Anu Museum, days before the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack, the book of Torah is inaugurated at the museum, in the presence of released hostage Agam Berger, in a moving, bittersweet ceremony, tells Tercatin. Another ancient bible, the Shem Tov bible, this one only 700 years old, was also inaugurated permanently at the National Library of Israel, both in time for the Shavuot holiday. Tercatin also looks at the ongoing issues of conversion in Israel, following a meeting last week of the Knesset Aliyah Committee devoted to the topic of conversions on Tuesday, ahead of the Shavuot festival. Only about half of those who start the process to convert manage to complete the journey, and the Conversion Authority is currently formally without a director, leaving nobody can sign the official conversion certificates, complex matters that Tercatin discusses. Steinberg talks about an art exhibit currently at Kibbutz Ramat Yohanan, marking the 80th anniversary of the kibbutz's Shavuot ceremony, created by two pioneering kibbutz members in the 1940s to mark the agricultural and harvest aspects of the festival. Finally, Tercatin discusses the Messianic community in Israel, and its connection to Yaron Lischinsky, the Israel Embassy staffer who was killed alongside his soon-to-be-fiance, Sarah Milgrim, on May 21 in an antisemitic attack at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC.

And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? 2 For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, And as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or comeliness; And when we see Him, There is no beauty that we should desire Him. 3 He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. 4 Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. 5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth. 8 He was taken from prison and from judgment, And who will declare His generation? For He was cut off from the land of the living; For the transgressions of My people He was stricken. 9 And they made His grave with the wicked— But with the rich at His death, Because He had done no violence, Nor was any deceit in His mouth. 10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief. When You make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, And the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand. 11 He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied. By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many, For He shall bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great, And He shall divide the spoil with the strong, Because He poured out His soul unto death, And He was numbered with the transgressors, And He bore the sin of many, And made intercession for the transgressors.   Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9J7oIRA-FWM   Duration 45:57

294 – Are you tired of all the theological debates?Social media is full of people from different churches "explaining" why their theology is right and everyone else's theology is wrong. The basic problem is they are defining what it means to be a true Christian by doctrinal beliefs instead of actually living the teachings of Jesus in their daily lives.This mistake has gone on for at least 1,700 years. It's time to stop the theological debate mindset, trying to prove you are right.In this week's episode I talk about:The attitude behind this urge to debate and condemn everyone who disagrees with you theologically It's not how Jesus wants you to share your faithHow to interact with someone who's trying to debate with youAnd most importantly, a more effective way to share your faithJesus didn't prove he was the Messiah by his words. He told people to look at what he was doing, because what he did was fulfilling the Messianic prophecies.We need to follow his example. Quit trying to prove you are a Christian, or disprove someone else is, based on doctrines and theology. Let people see how you are following in Jesus's footsteps in healing and blessing mankind. Previous episodes Episode 224: Why Should I Believe in the Nicene Creed?Episode 105: Why Isn't There Unity in the Body of Christ?Show notes: Transcript and Bible quotes: thebiblespeakstoyou.com/294Text me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.

Welcome to Day 2638 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2638 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 69:1-8 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2638 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2638 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. In today's Wisdom Nugget, we're embarking on a trek through a different kind of terrain – the deep, often turbulent waters of lament. We're opening our Bibles to Psalm 69, starting with verses 1 through 8 in the New Living Translation. Psalm 69 is one of the Bible's most poignant and powerful lament psalms. It's a raw cry from a soul in deep distress, feeling overwhelmed by suffering, enemies, and profound reproach. While it speaks to the personal agony of the psalmist, often attributed to David, it is also a profoundly Messianic psalm, with many of its verses finding their ultimate fulfillment in the suffering of Jesus Christ. For our trek today, however, we'll primarily focus on the psalmist's immediate experience, allowing his desperate plea to resonate with our own moments of overwhelming hardship. Lament is a vital part of faith. It's the language we use when life doesn't make sense, when we feel abandoned, attacked, or misunderstood. The ancient Israelites understood this well; their psalms provided a divine vocabulary for every human emotion, including profound sorrow and confusion. This psalm offers us a sacred space to bring our deepest pain and rawest emotions before God. So, let's immerse ourselves in the opening verses of Psalm 69. (Reads Psalm 69:1-4 NLT) Save me, O God, for the floodwaters are up to my neck. Deeper and deeper I sink into the mire; I can't find a foothold. I am drowning in deep waters; the floods overwhelm me. I am exhausted from crying for help; my throat is hoarse. My eyes are swollen red from weeping for my God. Those who hate me without cause are more numerous than the hairs on my head. These enemies who want to destroy me are powerful. They make me pay for crimes I didn't commit. I am forced to return what I didn't steal. Guthrie Chamberlain: What a visceral, immediate cry for help! The psalmist wastes no time in conveying the urgency and desperation of his situation. He uses powerful, evocative imagery of being consumed by water: “Save me, O God, for the floodwaters are up to my neck. Deeper and deeper I sink into the mire; I can't find a foothold. I am drowning in deep waters; the floods overwhelm me.” This is more than just a metaphor for trouble; it speaks to a profound sense of being utterly submerged and losing control. In the ancient Near East, deep waters, floods, and mire often symbolized chaos, death, and overwhelming peril. When the psalmist says the waters are “up to my neck,” it means he is on the verge of suffocation, barely clinging to life. He's not just in the water; he's sinking into “mire,” thick mud that offers no solid ground, no hope of escape. He's being “overwhelmed” – completely overcome and consumed by the torrents of his troubles. Have you ever felt like that? Like you're sinking, unable to find firm ground, with the pressures of life threatening to swallow you

Its core ingredients—an alleged league of pedophiles, a godlike miracle worker, promises of an Edenic restoration—resemble archetypes that have long occupied humanity's imagination. Trump's followers may communicate through memes and message boards, but their faith belongs to a much older mythology: the eternal face-off between shaman and witch, prophet and cabal."In this conversation, Manvir, the author of a new book on "Shamanism," compellingly demonstrates how the MAGA movement — especially in its QAnon-inflected guises — manifests archetypal features of the messianic cult, analogues for which can be found across cultures and historical epochs. On KYE, we haven't often indulged in this sort of critique, for (justifiable) fear of eliding the very specific political conditions that gave rise to Trumpism, but for today: we're going for it! And Manvir was an ideal (and suitably careful) guide to this methodology and way of thinking about our political conjecture.Further Reading:Manvir Singh, "The President Who Became a Prophet," The New Yorker, May 17, 2025.— "How Much Does Our Language Shape Our Thinking?"
