Mark Call – Torah Teaching for Parsha “Noach”

Parsha "Noach" (Genesis 6:9-11:32) is actually the second, and concluding part of the story of the "days of Noah," and is the reading that contains the most well-known (and also sometimes LEAST known!) elements of the story of The Flood. But there's more, too, because it also includes the "Tower of Babel," and the intro to the first of the Patriarchs. https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/SSM-10-24-25-Noach-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 Mark begins the Sabbath midrash with the observation that the 'days of Noah' spanned not only the time prior to the Flood when "the thoughts of men's hearts was only evil continually," but also many years thereafter, and certainly through the time of Nimrod, and up to the story of Babel. And that is particularly key when it comes to understanding the somewhat enigmatic story of His 'confounding the language' to deliberately ensure that mankind is NOT "one people," and NOT able to 'work together for the common good.' The fact that so much of today's 'One World' propaganda pushes exactly that goal should be concerning, at minimum, given that YHVH explained His concern by saying the reason for His actions was that once they learned to work together, and seemingly plot to thwart His potential plans, "THIS is what they begin to do." "Noach: Maybe 'coexist' is NOT the best motto - then or now" https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/WT-CooH-10-25-25-Noach-Am-Echad-And-THIS-is-What-they-Begin-to-DO-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

The long introduction explains that Jesus Christ is fully the God of Adam and Eve, Moses, the Patriarchs and the Prophets. When the disciples saw Jesus, they saw the Father. Jesus Christ is the origin and source of all things (the Alpha) and the purpose and destiny (the Omega) of all things -- the Creator. And then I explain that there is a time for war, and hate, and that time is now. Englishmen must understand this time of war and must understand that Starmer is an agent of Satan seeking the genocide of the Christian English.

SERMON PODCAST NOTESSeries: Welcome HomeWeek 4 Title: The Reckless Love of the FatherScripture: Luke 15:20–24Big Idea: The Father's love closes the distance, covers our shame, and restores our dignity.I. The Father Closes the DistanceThe father sees his son “while he was still a long way off” (v.20).Patriarchs didn't run—but this father did. He risked shame to protect and embrace his son.God runs toward our mess, not away from it. His love overrides pride.Application: Don't stiff-arm those coming home. Close the distance like God does.II. The Father Covers Our Shame (The Robe)The best robe = honor, identity, belonging.Covers the filth of the pig pen with dignity.Isaiah 61:10 — clothed with righteousness.Application: Stop arguing with grace. Let the Father clothe your shame.III. The Father Restores Our Dignity (The Ring & Sandals)Ring = family authority, adoption, restored position (Romans 8:15).Sandals = freedom; only sons wore them, not slaves.Application: You're not a guest in God's house. You are family. Walk in freedom and sonship.IV. The Father Celebrates Our Return (The Feast)Grace can't stay quiet—restoration demands celebration.The fattened calf = public joy, a party that brings the community in.Application: God doesn't just forgive privately—He restores and celebrates publicly.Final Challenge: If you've come home, it's time to go public—through baptism, through community, through celebration.

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. Legal and settlements reporter Jeremy Sharon and Knesset reporter Ariela Karmel join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. We begin the program with an update on the ongoing saga of the attempts to fire Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara. On Sunday morning, the five-member ministerial committee recently set up to dismiss the attorney general voted unanimously to recommend that the government to dismiss her. We hear what are the potential next steps toward firing her -- and probable backlash. Yesterday at the Knesset conference called “The Gaza Riviera – from vision to reality,” Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich endorsed a “security annexation” of the northern Gaza Strip and claimed that Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir favors the idea. Dozens of right-wing politicians and activists claim they are set to "right a historic wrong" that occurred 20 years ago with the 2005 Disengagement. Karmel sets the scene. Israeli authorities have said they are taking control of the management of the Tomb of the Patriarchs holy site in Hebron, in order to carry out construction work at the flashpoint West Bank shrine. Sharon explains how there is precedent for this temporary control and delves into why the move is so controversial this time. And finally, in June, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police announced that it had opened an investigation into “matters related to the Israel-Hamas armed conflict,” with the possibility of uncovering “a perpetrator of core international crimes — such as genocide, war crimes, or crimes against humanity.” This announcement sparked concern among dual Israel-Canadian citizen soldiers. Karmel wrote an in-depth piece on the topic and shares the soldiers' fears. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Join The Land of Israel Fellowship: https://thelandofisrael.com/fellowship/   Israel is making bold moves on multiple fronts. The IDF is actively working to protect the embattled Druze community in Syria, as hundreds of Israeli Druze crossed the border amid rising chaos in Sweida. Meanwhile, a seismic shift has occurred in Hebron — for the first time in decades, control of the Cave of the Patriarchs has been transferred from the Waqf to a Jewish religious council. And in the political arena, Prime Minister Netanyahu has lost his majority, dropping to a one-seat minority coalition. Plus: Hamas has reportedly agreed to a new ceasefire map, including a withdrawal from the Morag Corridor. France makes a shocking decision to officially accept Gazans as refugees — opening a legal pathway that aligns with past U.S. proposals. And the so-called “settler violence” incident in Taybeh?

It's Thursday, July 17th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark West Bank Christian communities attacked by Israeli settlers Christian communities in the West Bank are experiencing increasing attacks from Israeli settlers. Last Monday, Jewish extremists targeted the Palestinian Christian town of Taybeh. They attacked houses and started fires near the community's historic church building. The Council of Patriarchs and Heads of Churches of Jerusalem released a statement, saying, “The attacks by the hands of settlers against our community, which is living in peace, must stop, both here in Taybeh and elsewhere throughout the West Bank. This is clearly part of the systematic attacks against Christians that we see unfolding throughout the region.” Church of England affirms sexual perversion for clergy … again The Church of England voted Tuesday to remove a 1991 teaching document on sexuality from its ordination process. The document, entitled Issues in Human Sexuality, said that clergy should not live in homosexual relationships.  However, church leaders said the document now appears “prejudicial and offensive.”  The Church of England has allowed clergy to enter homosexual civil partnerships since 2005. Last year, it approved services of blessing for homosexual couples. Isaiah 5:20 says, “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness.” Christian non-profit victorious in case against ChatGPT In the United States, a Christian non-profit won a religious freedom lawsuit against one of the biggest artificial intelligence organizations around. OpenAI offers a 20% non-profit discount for a ChatGPT subscription unless an organization is religious. A Christian non-profit named Holy Sexuality challenged this policy with the help of Alliance Defending Freedom. In response, OpenAI reversed course and offered the discount. It also removed religious discrimination language from its policy.   Dr. Christopher Yuan, the founder of Holy Sexuality, said, “Some corporations—especially tech companies—emboldened by intersectional ideology and anti-Christian sentiment, choose to unlawfully discriminate based solely on religion. We are grateful for this victory.” Fourth Circuit upholds West Virginia ban on abortion kill pill On Tuesday, the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld West Virginia's ban on the Abortion Kill Pill called mifepristone. The challenge to the ban came from GenBioPro, a company that produces the killing drug.  The case marks the first time a federal appeals court has allowed states to restrict access to mifepristone.  West Virginia Republican Governor Patrick Morrisey responded to the ruling, “West Virginia can continue to enforce our pro-life laws and lead the nation in our efforts to protect life. We will always be a pro-life state!” Senate Republicans pass $9 billion budget cut U.S. Senate Republicans advanced a $9 billion rescission bill on Tuesday with the tie-breaking vote of Vice President J.D. Vance. The measure follows President Donald Trump's agenda to cut spending on foreign aid and public broadcasting. Republicans must have the bill ready to be signed by Friday for the rescissions to be enacted.  Listen to comments from Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune. THUNE: “Later today, the Senate will begin consideration of the Trump administration's rescissions package reining in waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government is a priority shared by President Trump and by Senate Republicans. “I appreciate all the work the administration has done in identifying wasteful spending. And now it's time for the Senate to do its part to cut some of that waste out of the budget. It's a small but important step toward fiscal sanity that we all should be able to agree is long overdue.” Christian and Gospel music seeing a resurgence Christian and Gospel music is seeing a resurgence, according to a report on music streaming trends by Luminate.  The Christian/Gospel genre moved up to seventh place in the top 10 U.S. music genres this year. And Christian music ranked fourth among the highest-growth genres. The report found Christian music listeners are mostly female, and the top generation listening to Christian music is Millennials. Deacon given free truck after protecting church from gunman And finally, WXYZ reports a church deacon in Michigan received a new truck recently after preventing a mass shooting at his church last month.  On Sunday, June 22, a shooter opened fire outside CrossPointe Community Church in Wayne, Michigan. In God's providence, Deacon Richard Pryor was running late. He saw the gunman heading to the church's front door, dressed in camouflage and bearing an AR-15 style rifle as well as  more than a dozen fully-loaded magazines. That's when Pryor ran the shooter over. However, his truck was totaled in the process as the shooter shot up the truck.  Fortunately, Pryor was not injured.  Another person, acting as a volunteer security guard, shot the gunman dead. In response, a local Ford dealership gifted the hero a brand new truck on a two-year free lease. Pryor said he was “thankful for everybody's support.
