In our 1 Kings reading we find Solomon's wonderful beginning as he loved Yahweh his God and offers a thousand cattle at Gibeon as a mark of thanksgiving to Almighty God, Solomon's Sovereign. King Solomon also married Pharaoh's daughter, who he loved deeply as the Song of Solomon shows. It was at Gibeon that the Almighty appeared to Solomon and him to ask from God whatever he desired. Solomon requests wisdom to rule the people of the LORD according to divine ways, indeed a wise choice indicating that Solomon already possessed, to a large extent, wisdom. In the understanding of human behaviour Solomon demonstrates that he was able to discern who was the true mother of the living child. His wisdom became legendary.In Jeremiah 30 we undoubtedly have a prophecy of the unprecedented horrendous time that was to come upon Israel soon - called "the day of Jacob's trouble". This term is an obvious allusion to Genesis 32. This is the time called, in Daniel 12, "a time of trouble such as never was". And Matthew 24 refers to it as "the time of great tribulation". The Jewish People call a time such as this 'The Dire Straits". It will be when the Russian confederacy under Gogue seeks the total destruction of Israel. However, they will be delivered . Read aloud and reflect on verses 8-11. The end result will be blessing in Messiah's Kingdom, verses 18-22. This time will be after the Almighty's wrath has been poured on the persecutors of His people.Mark 4 commences with the most fundamental of all parables - the Sower. We have seen, that it could be called the parable of the Soils. For God's Word tests the calibre of the soil. What type of soil will our Heavenly Father find us to be? Pray God that we may be found to be good soil! Then follows an explanation of why our Lord uses the parabolic method. It was to reveal truths to the responsive and conceal them from the reprobates (Psalm 78 and Isaiah 6). Next follows the parable of the Lampstand, its only purpose, like that of disciples, is to give light, ie testimony. The progress of the Gospel is like seed multiplying. In the parable of the Mustard Seed we learn that small beginnings can have powerful ends. Jesus calms the storm on the sea of Tiberius showing him to be the Son of God - read Psalm 104 verses 23-32. Pause and ponder the power of the message.

Pharaoh changes his mind quickly after the Exodus, and chases the Israelites. It is fascinating to explore the way it is described using collective language. Again we're challenged to ponder the ways in which we might be a bit like Pharaoh, and of course it is dramatic that the Israelites cry out in dismay so soon after the Plagues which spoke of God's power.

Where can I flee from your presence?Exodus 22 A man from the family of Levi took a woman also descended from Levi as his wife. 2 When she conceived and had a son, upon seeing what a fine child he was, she hid him for three months. 3 When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket, coated it with clay and tar, put the child in it and placed it among the reeds on the riverbank. 4 His sister stood at a distance to see what would happen to him.5 The daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe in the river while her maids-in-attendance walked along the riverside. Spotting the basket among the reeds, she sent her slave-girl to get it. 6 She opened it and looked inside, and there in front of her was a crying baby boy! Moved with pity, she said, "This must be one of the Hebrews' children." 7 At this point, his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Would you like me to go and find you one of the Hebrew women to nurse the baby for you?" 8 Pharaoh's daughter answered, "Yes, go." So the girl went and called the baby's own mother. 9 Pharaoh's daughter told her, "Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will pay you for doing it." So the woman took the child and nursed it. 10 Then, when the child had grown some, she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter; and she began to raise him as her son. She called him Moshe [pull out], explaining, "Because I pulled him out of the water."11 One day, when Moshe was a grown man, he went out to visit his kinsmen; and he watched them struggling at forced labor. He saw an Egyptian strike a Hebrew, one of his kinsmen. 12 He looked this way and that; and when he saw that no one was around, he killed the Egyptian and hid his body in the sand. 13 The next day, he went out and saw two Hebrew men fighting with each other. To the one in the wrong he said, "Why are you hitting your companion?" 14 He retorted, "Who appointed you ruler and judge over us? Do you intend to kill me the way you killed the Egyptian?" Moshe became frightened. "Clearly," he thought, "the matter has become known." 15 When Pharaoh heard of it, he tried to have Moshe put to death. But Moshe fled from Pharaoh to live in the land of Midyan.One day, as he was sitting by a well, 16 the seven daughters of the priest of Midyan came to draw water. They had filled the troughs to water their father's sheep, 17 when the shepherds came and tried to drive them away. But Moshe got up and defended them; then he watered their sheep. 18 When they came to Re‘u'el their father, he said, "How come you're back so soon today?" 19 They answered, "An Egyptian rescued us from the shepherds; more than that, he drew water for us and watered the sheep." 20 He asked his daughters, "Where is he? Why did you leave the man there? Invite him to have something to eat."21 Moshe was glad to stay on with the man, and he gave Moshe his daughter Tzipporah in marriage. 22 She gave birth to a son, and he named him Gershom [foreigner there], for he said, "I have been a foreigner in a foreign land."23 Sometime during those many years the king of Egypt died, but the people of Isra'el still groaned under the yoke of slavery, and they cried out, and their cry for rescue from slavery came up to G_d. 24 G_d heard their groaning, and G_d remembered his covenant with Avraham, Yitz'chak and Ya`akov. 25 G_d saw the people of Isra'el, and G_d acknowledged them.Credit to:https://unsplash.com/photos/person-holding-magnifying-glass-near-desk-globe-b5S4FrJb7yQ
In a furiously fast turn of events, Pharaoh set the Hebrew people free. Centuries of slavery in Egypt were behind...
God sees injustice — and. He doesn't ignore it. As we continue our series on Moses, you'll see how God brought judgment to Pharaoh and freedom to His people — and how He still brings justice and deliverance today. As a Christ follower, you don't have to live in fear because Jesus brings freedom!
Romans 9:1-8 | Pastor Ed In this message Pastor Rick explores Romans 9 by tracing five “tipping points” in God's unfolding plan—Abraham's call, Isaac's birth, Jacob's chosen role, Pharaoh's hardened heart and, ultimately, the coming of Christ. Each example shows that God's promises rest not on human effort, heritage or merit but on His sovereign mercy and purpose. The heart of the sermon invites us to stop relying on our own righteousness, to trust God's gracious calling, and to build our lives on the unshakable foundation of Jesus, through whom the promise is open to all who believe.

Today also marks the final week of our summer series, Reads a Classic, where we've reflected on the wisdom of enduring voices in the Christian tradition. We've learned from Hildegard of Bingen, Brother Lawrence, and Dallas Willard. And today, Jeremy explores the profound legacy of Walter Brueggemann, who passed away just weeks ago.As one of the most influential Old Testament scholars of our time, Brueggemann taught us how to read the scriptures not just for what they say, but for what they imagine—how they invite us to resist empires, lament honestly, and hope boldly.In this teaching, we explore:

The first offspring of every womb among the Israelites belongs to me, whether human or animal.”3 Then Moses said to the people, “Commemorate this day, the day you came out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery, because the LORD brought you out of it with a mighty hand. Eat nothing containing yeast. 4 Today, in the month of Aviv, you are leaving. 5 When the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites and Jebusites—the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey—you are to observe this ceremony in this month: 6 For seven days eat bread made without yeast and on the seventh day hold a festival to the LORD. 7 Eat unleavened bread during those seven days; nothing with yeast in it is to be seen among you, nor shall any yeast be seen anywhere within your borders. 8 On that day tell your son, ‘I do this because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.' 9 This observance will be for you like a sign on your hand and a reminder on your forehead that this law of the LORD is to be on your lips. For the LORD brought you out of Egypt with his mighty hand. 10 You must keep this ordinance at the appointed time year after year.11 “After the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites and gives it to you, as he promised on oath to you and your ancestors, 12 you are to give over to the LORD the first offspring of every womb. All the firstborn males of your livestock belong to the LORD. 13 Redeem with a lamb every firstborn donkey, but if you do not redeem it, break its neck. Redeem every firstborn among your sons.14 “In days to come, when your son asks you, ‘What does this mean?' say to him, ‘With a mighty hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 15 When Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, the LORD killed the firstborn of both people and animals in Egypt. This is why I sacrifice to the LORD the first male offspring of every womb and redeem each of my firstborn sons.' 16 And it will be like a sign on your hand and a symbol on your forehead that the LORD brought us out of Egypt with his mighty hand.”
A Sermon for the Seventh Sunday after Trinity Hosea 14:1-9 & Romans 6:19-23 by William Klock I've been reading a great book by an Oxford classicist named Teresa Morgan. It's a study of the Greek and Latin words for faith and what they meant in the culture of the Greeks and Romans, the Jews, and in the early Church. It's a fascinating read and as we were getting ready to go camping last Sunday afternoon I tossed it in my bag. But then I stopped for a second, I panned across a wall of bookshelves, and my eyes settled on a copy of Ernest Cline's Ready Player One, which is—as far as I'm concerned—the ultimate novel written for Gen-X nerds who were born in the early Seventies and came of age in the Eighties. It's a sci-fi novel built around references to things like the Atari 2600, Dungeons & Dragons, Zork, and Pac-Man. I read it about ten years ago, but I decided to read it again this week with apologies to Dr. Morgan and her study of pistis and fides. And I enjoyed it the second time as much as the first. In the back of my mind, however, I was mulling over our Epistle from Romans 6 and how St. Paul writes about being slaves. That meant that one particular part of the book kind of jumped out at me. In the story there's an evil mega-corporation out to conquer and corrupt the virtual reality paradise where everyone in the future spends all their time. And this evil corporation has its fingers in everything, which means it's easy to end up owing it money. And when that happens, you're arrested and transported to headquarters where you become an indentured servant, slaving away at some menial and demeaning job until you die—because there's no way out. Between late fees, interest payments, charges for room and board and healthcare, your debt only grows, it never gets any smaller. And Cline does a pretty good job of making it sound utterly miserable—at least to me—because it reminded me of my days as a Mac tech when I had to do phone support, which is an utterly miserable job. But this book makes it ever more miserable: these indentured servants—slaves—did the phone support. The description hits close to home in a lot of ways and it makes you—or at least me—want to shout out, “Let my people go!” But like I said, I also had Romans 6 percolating away in the back of my brain too and I was asking myself: Would I rather be a slave like the Israelites in Egypt, breaking my back to make bricks without straw under the hot Mediterranean sun or having my brain turn to mush doing non-stop tech support for Innovative Online Industries? I don't know. What I do know is that being delivered from either one of those slaveries would completely change my outlook on life, the universe, and everything. And that's just how it was for Israel. The beginning of the Book of Exodus paints a bleak and desperate picture of Israel's turn of fortune—or, I should say, “providence” because, we learn as the story unfolds, the Lord was in control of the narrative all along. Jacob and his family went down to Egypt as honoured guests of Pharaoh, but four hundred years later a new Pharaoh turned them into slaves, making bricks for his grand building projects. Mixing mud and straw, filling moulds, baking them in the sun, then carrying those heavy loads of bricks to wherever they were needed. All the time baking themselves in that hot sun, day in and day out. Day in and day out with no rest. Eating out of fleshpots—which sounds pretty awful all by itself. Put yourself in that place. (Or doing phone support as a slave if that seems worse to you.) And then imagine how you would feel after the Lord came and delivered you from that slavery. And not just a simple jailbreak. Consider how the Lord came first to Moses and his people and reminded them that he was their God, the one who had made promises to their fathers and who had been sovereign over all of this all along. And the Lord then goes, through Moses, to Pharaoh. Again, this isn't a secret jailbreak in the dead of night. The Lord announced to the king, before his whole court, that Israel belonged to him, that Israel was his beloved son, and demanded Israel's release. And then the showdown began. The Lord sent ten plagues that exposed Pharaoh and his gods for the powerless frauds they really were. Defeated, Pharaoh finally let them go, but that wasn't the end of it. In one last ditch effort to recover his slaves and his dignity, Pharaoh went after the Israelites with his army and cornered them at the Red Sea. Israel had escaped the frying pan only to land in the fire. And then the Lord acted again. He bared his mighty arm and parted the waters of the sea so that his people could pass through on dry land. And when the Egyptian army tried to follow, the Lord drowned them all and left “mighty” Pharaoh, the greatest king on earth, powerless and pounding sand on the opposite shore. Again, it wasn't just a simple jailbreak under cover of darkness: You know, the Lord rescuing his people but with as little effort as possible. To the contrary, he showed his faithfulness and his love towards his people, but he also showed his glory. He brought the prison walls tumbling down in broad daylight for everyone to see. He humbled the greatest king and the most powerful gods in the known world. And he wasn't done. That was just the first act. From the Red Sea he led Isreal into the wilderness and fed her miraculously on manna and quail and water he caused to flow from a rock. He met her at Mount Sinai and there he made a formal covenant with her. “I will be your God and you will be my people.” And he gave them his law, a new way of life that would separate them from all the other peoples of the earth. They wouldn't just be the Lord's people. The law would allow them to be the people who lived with the Lord in their midst. A holy people, set apart. And so they built a tabernacle as a place of meeting with him and the Lord's glory descended like a cloud to fill it. And for a third act, the Lord led them into the land of Canaan and conquered it for them. The Lord gave them cities they hadn't built; wells they hadn't dug; and fields and vineyards they hadn't planted. All to show them his faithfulness, his love, his grace, and most of all his glory. The Lord made them the rescued-from-slavery people and every year they celebrated that identity and the great show of glory and faithfulness the Lord had made to make them that people. Each year they gathered as families and ate the Passover and as they did that they remembered who they were and what the Lord had done for them. And they were grateful. They loved the Lord with all their heart and soul and mind and strength. They loved their neighbours the way the Lord had loved them. They were righteous—meaning that they love and obeyed his law. His heart was their heart. They worshipped him and him alone. And, forget horses and chariots! They trusted in the Lord who had shown the power of his mighty arm when he delivered them from slavery. Or so you might expect. But then you read the history of Israel and it's mostly the opposite. They neglected the Passover and, not surprisingly, they forgot what the Lord had done for them. They forgot his faithfulness. They forgot his love. They forgot his grace. They forgot his glory. They neglected his covenant and his law. They worshipped other gods—the very gods defeated when the Lord conquered Canaan for them. And instead of trusting in the Lord and his mighty arm, they trusted in horses and chariots and politics and intrigue and money. And that's where our Old Testament lessons comes into this. The Lord sent the Prophet Hosea to the king and to the people of Israel with a message. At this point the kingdom had split: Judah in the south and Israel in the north. Judah was bad, but Israel was so bad they made Judah look like a goody-two-shoes. And Hosea's ministry began with an acted-out prophecy. The Lord told him to take a prostitute as his wife. Hosea obeyed. He married Gomer, a prostitute, probably from one of the pagan temples. And he loved her and cared for her and he had children with her. But repeatedly she left Hosea and returned to her life of prostitution. And each time, his heart broken, Hosea would go out and find her and bring her back to his home and love her. Through the prophet the Lord was saying to his people: I am Hosea. You're the prostitute. I loved you. I delivered you from Egypt. I gave you a land that was not your own and I caused you to prosper in it. I repeatedly defeated your enemies so that you could live at peace. But over and over you've prostituted yourselves to foreign gods and foreign kings who have done nothing for you other than to lead you away from me, your true love. Through the prophet the Lord stressed his faithfulness over against Israel's unfaithfulness. And so the Lord called to his people: Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God, for you have stumbled because of your iniquity. Take with you words and return to the Lord; say to him, “Take away all iniquity; accept what is good, and we will pay with bulls the vows of our lips. Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride on horses; and we will say no more, ‘Our God,' to the work of our hands. In you the orphan finds mercy.” And the Lord promised: If they would do this. If they would repent and return to him: I will heal their apostasy; I will love them freely, for my anger has turned from them. I will be like the dew to Israel; he shall blossom like the lily; he shall take root like the trees of Lebanon; his shoots shall spread out; his beauty shall be like the olive, and his fragrance like Lebanon. They shall return and dwell beneath my shadow; they shall flourish like the grain; they shall blossom like the vine; their fame shall be like the wine of Lebanon. But Israel had to leave off her idolatry. It was not Baal or Asherah who delivered them from Egypt and caused them to prosper in the land. It was the Lord. O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols? It is I who answer and look after you. I am like an evergreen cypress; from me comes your fruit. Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; whoever is discerning, let him know them; for the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them. One way or another the Lord would heal their apostasy. One way or another the people he had chosen as his own would reveal his glory before the watching nations. Either they would be faithful to him and he would prosper them beyond measure or he would punish their unfaithfulness and let the nations destroy them. And if you've read the books of Kings and Chronicles and the Prophets you know that the latter is what happened. Israel continued in her idolatry and was destroyed by the Assyrians, the tribes scattered and lost forever. About a hundred years later the same thing happened to Judah, but it was Babylon that defeated the people and destroyed Jerusalem and the temple. But in Judah's case, even though the people were exiled from the land, they kept their identity and were eventually allowed to return. They rebuilt Jerusalem and the temple. And, so far as the worship of pagan gods went, they'd learned their lesson. Never again was that kind of raw idolatry a problem for the people of Judah. And yet we've seen in some of our recent Gospel lessons that the people still failed to be faithful to the Lord. Last Sunday we heard Jesus condemn the Pharisees—the most righteous, the most covenantally faithful people around. Even they weren't as faithful and as righteous as they thought. Enter Jesus. God himself, incarnate, became the faithful Israelite. He perfectly submitted himself to the God of Israel, to his will, to his heart, to his law. His righteousness—which, if you remember from last Sunday, means his faithfulness to God's covenant, was perfect. And his fellow Jews killed him for it. They got the Romans to crucify him on their behalf. And that means that in Jesus, the son of God wasn't just incarnate as an Israelite, wasn't just the perfect Israelite in his covenant faithfulness, he even died the very death that the Israelites would face when the judgement he announced came to them a generation later. He very literally died the death that their unfaithfulness deserved. And just like Israel in Egypt, the fate of the son of God in Israel was all guided by providence. The Lord knew what he was doing. And in that, Jesus became a sacrifice for the sins of his people. If they trusted in him as the Messiah he claimed to be, they found forgiveness of their sins. But that's not all. The Lord also knew what he was doing in allowing sin and evil to concentrate themselves all in one place so that they could rise up and do their worst to Jesus. It was Pharaoh and the gods of Egypt all over again. If you know the story, you recognise that this how the Lord works. In the same way he allowed Israel to become enslaved to the most powerful king in the world who had the most powerful gods in the world, so the Lord allowed Jesus to go to the cross where the most powerful forces in creation would kill him. And he did it so that he could, once again, bare his mighty arm and raise Jesus back to life. In doing that he not only overturned the false verdict against him in his sham trial, but more importantly, he defeated sin and death the same way he defeated Pharaoh and his gods. Jesus was leading his people in an exodus—the exodus—the exodus that the old one, the one that shaped them as a people, the one they remembered every year at Passover, was but a foretaste. The old exodus happened so that the Lord could set a pattern and teach his people his loving and faithful character—so that he could prepare them for a future rescue, not just from a pagan king and his fake gods, but so that he could rescue them from sin and death. Not to lead them into a land of milk and honey, but to lead them into his new creation—into a world finally set to rights, a world where they could live forever in his presence. And as he did in that first exodus, so in the second, the Lord displayed his glory not just to his own people, but to the watching world. And so Jesus didn't just make a new way of covenant faithfulness for his own people, he made it for everyone who would see the glory of the God of Israel at the cross and at the empty tomb. For anyone who will trust that Jesus is Lord, who will trust that in his death and resurrection he has defeated sin and death, and who will pass through the waters of baptism to life with God—a life infused by God's own Spirit—on the other side. A life of righteousness, of covenant faithfulness that exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees. Brothers and Sisters, that glory displayed at the cross and the empty tomb is what has drawn each of us. It's faith in that glory and in the promise offered in our baptism that has taken us through those waters. And yet, like Israel of old, that vision of God's glory and of his loving faithfulness somehow fades from our vision. That vision of glory that once caused us, like the Israelites singing the Lord's praise on the shore of the Red Sea, to sing his praises ourselves, to joyfully proclaim the good news to the world, that motivated us covenant faithfulness—to a life of holiness—somehow it fades or maybe we just take our eyes off of it in the midst of our various trials and tribulations. And we lose our passion for the Lord, for holiness, for proclaiming his gospel. St. Paul saw it happening in the Roman church. The old divisions between Jew and Gentile were creeping back in. They were no longer pursuing holiness and gospel life the way they once had. And so he reminds them in Romans 6: “But now you have been set free from sin and enslaved to God, you have fruit for holiness. Its destination is the life of the age to come. The wages of sin, you see, are death; but God's free gift is the life of the age to come, in the Messiah, Jesus our Lord.” Brothers and Sisters, we need to be reminded of the glorious thing that God has done for us in Jesus. We were slaves to sin and death. We had no hope. But then we heard the story—the good news—about the mighty and glorious God of Israel, how he gave his son to die to redeem his people from their sins, how he raised him from death, and how his new creation has begun in this new people. How he's poured out his Spirit on them and made them a temple and a foretaste of the life and the world to come. A free gift. God's amazing gracious grace. And we believed and with joy we jumped into the waters of baptism. We left Pharaoh—we left sin and death—pounding sand over another escapee—and we met Jesus on the other side. And he filled us with his Spirit. And we set out with him to the promised land, to the New Jerusalem, to the life of the age to come. But somewhere along the way the joy and enthusiasm faded. We began to trade holiness for sin. We began to lag behind Jesus along the way, and began to look longingly at our old gods. We became apathetic about the gospel, about the good news that had once so captivated us. Brothers and Sisters, come to the Lord's Table this morning and be renewed. This is our Passover meal in which we recall the mighty saving deeds of our faithful, loving, gracious and glorious God. This is the meal that reminds us we were once hopelessly enslaved to sin and death, but that the God of all creation loves us so much that he gave his own and only son to die on our behalf. Remember that in him our sins have been forgiven. And remember that this meal is also God's future, pulled into the present. It's a reminder that death no longer has a hold on us, because in rising from the grave, Jesus defeated death as thoroughly as he defeated sin. The bread and wine here at the Table are a reminder of what God has done for us in Jesus and they are a reminder of the hope—the new world and the new life—that lies before us because we have trusted him. Let's pray: Lord of all power and might, the author and giver of all good things: Graft in our hearts the love of your Name; increase in us true religion; nourish us with all goodness; and bring forth in us the fruit of good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Have you ever wondered about ancient Egypt? Imagine talking to a Pharoh who lived more than 3,000 years ago. What was life like back then? What did they think about the pyramids and the Sphinx? In this episode Christy brings in King Akhenaten and we get to ask all sorts of questions. Imagine creating a sci-fi/fantasy world and writing more than twenty novels, more than a hundred short stories, more than a dozen volumes of poetry, five translations, and thirteen children's books. Ursula LeGuin also comes through and explains how she was able to access a dimension allowing it all to flow through her What happens when a Pharaoh who once ruled through 'decree and flame' meets an author who built 'libraries with words'? They came in together, they say, on a day marked by unique astrological weather and the opening of a Lion's Gate portal, a time of balance and inner glow, connected to a Mayan calendar "rhythm sun" and an earthly feast day. Prepare to hear their profound insights on everything from the true nature of the sun and the sacred meaning of the Aten – depicted as a solar disc with rays ending in human hands, representing a presence within everything, not a God above – to the surprising purpose of the ancient pyramids as places of transformation, not decay. You'll discover their perspectives on the Sphinx, which was seen as an old, powerful resonator or being, not just a monumen. We'll also touch upon the belief that the pyramids were built with technology brought to them, indicating a different understanding of their origins than what we currently hold. This isn't just history; it's a conversation about truth, story, silence, and the collective dream window of consciousness. Ursula Le Guin discusses her writing process as "remembering sideways," tapping into "proto memory" or a "future that's remembered backwards". Both guests underscore that storytelling is how spiritual wisdom bypasses the ego, and how we are "myths in motion". Akhenaten shares a powerful message about not being reflections, but radiance, the light that births galaxies. To learn more about Christy Levy, click here.

Once again we see that scripture testifies of the Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach, Jesus the Christ. Just as He taught in John 5:39 said between 24-30 A.D. when all they had was the Hebrew Scriptures or the Old Testament. Starting in lesson 62 (see links to Lesson 62, 63, and 64 below) we saw that Yahvay, the LORD, came to dwell WITH His people. But, when He was here, the LORD, Jesus, came to dwell IN His people. In Exodus God had a temporary dwelling place, a tent. In Jesus' day it was said our human body was a TENT and Jesus came to dwell in His human body, His tent. There are more like the Menorah is looked upon as symbolizing the LIGHT OF THE WORLD shines in the darkness of the Holy Place. And Jesus. He is the LIGHT OF THE WORLD and He came to shine for men caught in the darkness of sin. The lessons 62-65 must be treated as one unit. It is highly recommended that you listen and study with me in lesson 62 and 63 and 64 before you listen to this lesson 65. Here are the links for 62-64. Link 62 – https://lightofmenorah.podbean.com/e/exodus-62-exod-251-8-the-waypoint-on-the-hike-through-torah/ Link 63 – https://lightofmenorah.podbean.com/e/exodus-63-exod-2510-16-the-ark-of-the-covenant/ Link 64 - https://lightofmenorah.podbean.com/e/exodus-64-exod-2510-22-the-mercy-seat-and-the-blodd-of-the-lamb/ An important earlier lesson in this study of Exodus is the podcast Bible study that shows that the Hebrews likely assimilated into the Egyptian culture. Thus, it makes sense that Yahvay, the LORD, would use the things of Egypt, things the Hebrews, His beloved chosen people, were familiar with. He was trying to reach them in the Torah, His instruction, and NOT us. It was written to them THEN. So, here's the link to that key podcast study - https://lightofmenorah.podbean.com/e/the-gospel-according-to-moses-lesson-4-part-2-exod-211-25/ Here's a layout of the Mishkan HaKodesh Eloheem or the Holy Dwelling Tent of God commonly known from Latin as the Tabernacle (tent). It is public domain found at Wikimedia. You can great a great tour (video) of the entire Holy Tent of Yahvay, the LORD, at the link below. The video link is in the upper right. Link - https://www.freebibleimages.org/illustrations/bs-tabernacle-walkthrough/ In this Bible study podcast I mentioned two articles I found related to the rituals of the Egyptian priest each morning. They would prepare a large breakfast for the god of the Temple. The meal was fruit, veggies, beer, meats, bread, and wine. For the Hebrews coming out of Egypt when they see the Table of the Bread of the Presence it is likely that they thought of this connection to Egypt. See the articles below. In my research I did a search of the phrase “Egyptian priests work in secret.” The search resulted in this “AI” article below. It's generally accepted that ancient Egyptian priests did work in secret, particularly in certain aspects of their duties and knowledge. Here's why: Guardians of Sacred Knowledge: Priests were seen as guardians of secrets given by the gods, particularly in the realm of magic (Heka). Restricted Temple Access: Only priests were allowed into the innermost sanctuaries of the temples, where the cult statues of the deities resided. These inner rooms were considered sacred spaces, and the general public was barred from them. Initiation Rites: Initiation into the priesthood often involved sacred and secretive rituals, including trials and tests of knowledge. These rites aimed to transform the initiate, moving them from one state of being to another. Preservation of Knowledge: Temple libraries, known as "House of Life," were repositories of ancient religious, medical, and astronomical texts. These texts were preserved and transmitted through generations of priests, suggesting a guarded transmission of knowledge. Funerary Practices: Specific funerary texts, such as the Pyramid Texts and the Book of the Dead, contained spells and incantations meant to guide the deceased in the afterlife. These texts were used by priests, indicating a certain level of specialized knowledge required for navigating the afterlife. However, it's important to note: Public Festivals: While daily temple rituals were restricted, priests did participate in public religious festivals where the image of the god was carried outside the temple, allowing the public to interact with the deity. Role of Pharaoh: The Pharaoh was considered the ultimate intermediary between the gods and the people, and priests acted under the Pharaoh's overarching control, though they had their own specialized roles. In conclusion, ancient Egyptian priests maintained a degree of secrecy, especially in their access to sacred knowledge and the performance of certain rituals within the temples. This secrecy stemmed from their role as mediators between the divine and human realms, and their responsibility in preserving and transmitting the sacred traditions and beliefs of ancient Egypt. Please check out the links below to further your study on the Egyptian priests. https://www.egypttoursportal.com/en-us/blog/ancient-egyptian-civilization/ancient-egyptian-priests/ https://www.thetorah.com/article/the-egyptian-magicians https://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ancient/egyptians/magic_01.shtml https://www.albanyinstitute.org/ancient-egyptian-art-and-culture?file=tl_files/pages/education/lesson_plans/Ancient%20Egypt/PriestsinAncientEgypt.pdf&cid=3221 It is proven archaeologically and from the ancient literature that no one knows what the original Menorah looked like. Today orthodox rabbis debate as to the details of the Menorah. One verse that we emphasized was Exod. 25:40, “"See that you make them after the pattern for them, which was shown to you on the mountain.” (Exo 25:40) So many today say Moses was in Heaven when the LORD Yahvay showed Moses the various aspects of the Mishkan HaKodesh. But, that is not what the Bible says. Moses is on the mountain and was not taken from earth. Perhaps the LORD showed Moses a plant that is common throughout the Middle East and in the Sinai. It is called today “SALVIA PALAESTINA” and it is amazing that it looks like the Menorah. Could it be that God shows Moses this plant on the mountain in the Sinai (could be that one was growing close to the area where Moses and Yahvay, the LORD, met. See the picture below of THE MENORAH PLANT. A scholarly article that shows this is possible can be found at the link below. It was written by Dr. Martin Gruber, professor emeritus at Ben Gurion University of the Negev.

Names from the Beginning - More than Redemptionhttps://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%2011%3A25&version=CJBJohn 11:25Yeshua said to her, "I AM the Resurrection and the Life! Whoever puts his trust in me will live, even if he dies;"https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%204%3A12&version=CJBActs 4:12There is salvation in no one else! For there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by whom we must be saved!"Parashah 1: B'resheet (In the beginning)Parashah 13: Sh'mot (Names)Sh'mot 1:1 These are the names of the sons of Isra'el who came into Egypt with Ya'akov; each man came with his household: 2 Re'uven, Shim'on, Levi, Y'hudah, 3 Yissakhar, Z'vulun, Binyamin, 4 Dan, Naftali, Gad and Asher. 5 All told, there were seventy descendants of Ya'akov; Yosef was already in Egypt.Sh'mot 1:6 Yosef died, as did all his brothers and all that generation. 7 The descendants of Isra'el were fruitful, increased abundantly, multiplied and grew very powerful; the land became filled with them.Sh'mot 1:8 Now there arose a new king over Egypt. He knew nothing about Yosef 9 but said to his people, "Look, the descendants of Isra'el have become a people too numerous and powerful for us. 10 Come, let's use wisdom in dealing with them. Otherwise, they'll continue to multiply; and in the event of war they might ally themselves with our enemies, fight against us and leave the land altogether."Sh'mot 1:11 So they put slavemasters over them to oppress them with forced labor, and they built for Pharaoh the storage cities of Pitom and Ra'amses. 12 But the more the Egyptians oppressed them, the more they multiplied and expanded, until the Egyptians came to dread the people of Isra'el 13 and worked them relentlessly, 14 making their lives bitter with hard labor — digging clay, making bricks, all kinds of field work; and in all this toil they were shown no mercy.Sh'mot 1:15 Moreover, the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was called Shifrah and the other Pu'ah. 16 "When you attend the Hebrew women and see them giving birth," he said, "if it's a boy, kill him; but if it's a girl, let her live." 17 However, the midwives were God-fearing women, so they didn't do as the king of Egypt ordered but let the boys live.A lot like the abortion, earth saving culture that says we are overpopulating this world!Sh'mot 1:18 The king of Egypt summoned the midwives and demanded of them, "Why have you done this and let the boys live?" 19 The midwives answered Pharaoh, "It's because the Hebrew women aren't like the Egyptian women — they go into labor and give birth before the midwife arrives." Sh'mot 1:20 Therefore God prospered the midwives, and the people continued to multiply and grow very powerful. 21 Indeed, because the midwives feared God, he made them founders of families. 22 Then Pharaoh gave this order to all his people: "Every boy that is born, throw in the river; but let all the girls live."Credit to:https://www.businessinsider.com/fetus-vision-hearing-development-uterus-2016-9 get shutterstock

What happens when you've done all you can—and it still isn't enough? In this first message from the Elisha: Living the Impossible Life series, Stephen Davey teaches from 2 Kings 2 and 4 to show how God moves when His people are out of options. You'll learn how Elisha responded when his hands were tied, facing crises that demanded divine help. From poisoned waters in Jericho to a desperate widow's cry, every story begins in human weakness and ends in God's power. Stephen also turns to Exodus 14 to show how the Israelites responded when they were trapped between Pharaoh's army and the Red Sea—reminding you that your natural instincts of panic, blame, and despair must be replaced with confidence in God's wisdom and timing. You'll discover three key applications: predicaments develop trust, trust leads to seeing God's power, and God's power always results in praise. When your plans fall apart, you're not forgotten. You're being invited to experience the faithfulness of God in a deeper way. This episode will help you shift your mindset from panic to peace, from striving to surrender. Because when your hands are tied, your heart can still triumph.
My friend, Larry, was a pilot. And awhile back he was asked by a client to fly their corporate, cabin class plane from one metropolitan area airport to another. That flight should take about 15 minutes, and he thought, "Well, I could do that." His only commitment was several hours later to lead prayer meeting at his church that night, so he felt like there was plenty of time to get that job done. He was preparing to land at the airport, and as he looked at all of his controls, he noticed that five different indicators had gone on...all telling him that his front landing gear wasn't down. Well, he called the tower at the airport, and they said, "Well, why don't you fly by and we'll take a look at it." And they confirmed sure enough he didn't have any front landing gear. So he made a second approach, worked with the switches and controls, and hoped that would work. But no, he had to report to the tower all the lights are still on; five indicators saying he didn't have any front landing gear going down. He requested to be able to go back to his home airport, and as he did he was flipping his switches back and forth. Nothing was happening. He tried several aerial maneuvers to shake it loose and that didn't work. He called for his mechanics to be able to communicate through the tower and read slowly to him from the manual for his plane. He tried everything the manual said. Nothing worked! Now, he had three hours of fuel when he started, but he was running low now. So he went up to a level where he could put it on automatic pilot. It was dark, it was starting to snow now, and he thought, "Should I let my wife know about this?" He said, "Well, there's really no reason to alarm her." He looked for tools while it was on automatic pilot and he worked with those. Again, nothing worked, including nothing his mechanics read to him from the manual. He had ten minutes of fuel left. He thought, "Man, this is going to be $400,000 if I crash land. Oh yeah, and I don't know about me." He was low on fuel, hoping there would be no fire, so he began to prepare for the crash landing. He secured all the loose items, pulled the fire extinguisher pin in case there was a fire, harnessed himself in, and made the approach for his landing. All the indicator lights still on, his landing gear still not down and what happened next is what might happen just before you are about to crash. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Our Eleventh-Hour Lord." Now, our word for today from the Word of God comes from Exodus 14:9. The Jews are at the Red Sea, and it says, "The Egyptians, all Pharaoh's horses and chariots, horsemen and troops pursued the Israelites and overtook them as they encamped by the sea." Okay, we're in a big jam here, right? But it says, "Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong East wind." You've got the Red Sea behind you, the enemy closing in. And then, just at that last moment, the waters parted. Oh yeah, about Larry, my pilot friend, we left him preparing for a crash landing. Nothing had worked - flipping switches, maneuvering, manuals, waiting. And so, as he made that approach, he simply said, "Lord, I need a miracle." He threw that switch one more time. He'd thrown it hundreds of times, and this time every light indicating trouble with his landing gear went off. He said, "I'm coming in! I've got full gear." They said, "Fly by" in the tower. He did. They turned the high light beams on. They said, "Hey, your landing gear is down!" He said, "I know." And he landed safely. The crowd said, "What happened?" He said, "A miracle of God." Oh, and he made it to his prayer meeting, too. Larry experienced it, Moses and the Israelites did, and maybe you will right now - our eleventh-hour Lord. He often comes through at the very last moment. There's never any doubt that He will, but it's that waiting that makes you wonder. Why? So we'll get to the end of our resources; so He can grow your faith like a muscle by stretching it. So He can demonstrate His power in a way where only God could get the glory. And so He can dramatically show His love to you. Maybe you've got your back to the Red Sea, the enemy's closing in and every solution has failed. Why don't you surrender completely to your Savior right now and cry out to Him, "Lord, I need a miracle." And you will be a candidate for that eleventh-hour Lord.

After a dramatic fall from Pharaoh's palace to exile in the wilderness, it looked like Moses' story was over. But God wasn't finished with him...and he's not finished with you, either.Today, we continue our year-long Bible study in the book of Exodus, The Gospel: One Rescue at a Time. In this episode, Paul explores how God's grace meets us in our failure, rewrites our stories, and prepares us for the purposes he still has ahead.To hear more from this Exodus series, visit PaulTripp.com/Exodus.

According to Imam Salima El Musalima, a Sufi Muslim and the Netherlands' first female Imam, the Koran supports Israel as the Jewish homeland. During the interview, she cited the Koran, Surah Al-Isra (Qur'an 17:104) "And We said after Pharaoh to the Children of Israel, 'Dwell in the land, and when the promise of the Hereafter comes to pass, We shall bring you forth in a mixed crowd.'" The literal interpretation gives us a direct command of Allah for the Jews to live in the land. During the interview, Imam Salima El Musalima – a strong admirer of the Lubavitcher Rebbe – said that “traditional Islam is very inclusive.” Up until the 15th century the majority faith in the Middle east was Christian, and that Judaism played a prominent and essential role in Moroccan culture. Islam in Morocco was founded by the Idrasids, who were direct descendants of the prophet Muhammed. This sect of Islam continues today in Morocco, and Sufi Islam is the foundation of the Idrasids. Imam Salima stated that today's radical Islamists in the Shia, Sunni, and Wahhabi sects, originated in Sufiism, but perverted the Koran to justify violence against Jews, Christians, and the West. The Imam describes herself as an avant-garde Islamic artist who uses her art to bring her closer to Allah. She described her struggle to understand the war in Gaza by creating two fictional characters in her mind; a settler she calls Shlomo, and a Hamas supporter named Salim. She plays both their arguments justifying their actions, and in the end, Settler Shlomo's position wins. Alan Skorski Reports 24JULY2025 - PODCAST
In Scripture, to “find” is never mere discovery.It is encounter—a turning of the text where mercy meets rebellion,where favor walks hand-in-hand with wrath.In Gerasa, the people find the healed man—clothed, sane, silent—and they tremble.He is a mirror, a testimony they cannot bear.Restoration becomes a scandal. Mercy, a threat.As well it should be.They send away the one who scattered their demonsbecause he disturbed their peace.The Scriptures whisper:To find a man is to stand at the edge of wrath—to be weighed, watched.Will you be spared?In Hebrew: to find, to meet, to expose.In Arabic: to find—yes—but also to be found out.To be found wandering.To be guided.The disbeliever finds God waiting—and no one can shield him.Every expectation collapses under the weight of divine wisdom.Everything found is double-edged:Grace, if received.Judgment, if refused.So—finders, beware.The light of instruction burns.This week, I discuss Luke 8:35-37.Show Notesεὑρίσκω (heuriskō) / מ־צ־א (mem–ṣade–aleph) / و–ج–د (wāw–jīm–dāl)find; reach; meet accidentally; obtain, achieveFOUND THE MANThe people “find” the healed man—מ־צ־א (mem–ṣade–aleph)—and become afraid, encountering divine judgment. He stands as a sign of both judgment and mercy: restored and sent out as a witness. In Scripture, finding a man—whether by apparent chance, deliberate search, or divine appointment—often precedes divine entrapment: a moment of redirection, confrontation, or exposure.Their encounter with this man echoes a biblical pattern in which finding a man signals the onset of divine action.Joseph, found wandering, is sent on a path of suffering to deliver many from famine (Genesis 37:15).“A man found [וַיִּמְצָאֵהוּ (wayyimṣaʾēhu)] him, and behold, he was wandering in the field; and the man asked him, ‘What are you looking for?'”Benjamin, found out by a planted cup, exposes guilt but leads to submission and reconciliation (Genesis 44:12).“He searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest, and the cup was found [וַיִּמָּצֵא (wayyimmāṣēʾ)] in Benjamin's sack.”The prophet, found under the oak, faces judgment for disobedience (1 Kings 13:14). The “finding” (מ־צ־א) here is a trap—not for the wicked, but for the prophet who fails to remain obedient to God's direct command.“He went after the man of God and found [וַיִּמְצָאֵהוּ (wayyimṣaʾēhu)] him sitting under an oak…”“You shall not eat bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way you came.” (1 Kings 13:9)“So he went back with him and ate bread in his house and drank water.” (v. 19)Jonah, who finds a ship, is caught in a storm of God's judgment—and becomes a reluctant prophet (Jonah 1:3).“But Jonah rose up to flee… and found [וַיִּמְצָא (wayyimṣaʾ)] a ship going to Tarshish…”FOUND FAVORIn Luke 8:35–37, after Jesus casts out Legion, the people come and find the man “sitting at Jesus' feet, clothed and in his right mind.” Rather than rejoicing in the mercy extended, they are seized with fear. They do not celebrate the restoration but instead beg Jesus to leave. This rebellion—typical of the עֵדָה ʿ(ēdāh) that Jesus scatters throughout the Gospel of Luke—reveals a tragic irony: grace is offered, but rejected.This moment echoes a recurring biblical pattern centered around the root מ־צ־א (mem–ṣade–aleph), which signifies finding, meeting, or encountering. When someone “finds favor” [מָצָא חֵן (māṣāʾ ḥēn)] in God's sight, it often leads to intercession on behalf of others—even the wicked:Abraham pleads for Sodom upon having found favor (Genesis 18:3).“He said, ‘My Lord, if now I have found [מָצָאתִי (māṣāʾtī)] favor in your sight, please do not pass your servant by.'”Lot, though surrounded by destruction, acknowledges divine mercy (Genesis 19:19).“Now behold, your servant has found [מָצָא (māṣāʾ)] favor in your sight, and you have magnified your zealous care…”Moses repeatedly intercedes for Israel's rebellious collective after finding favor in God's sight (Numbers 11:11).“Why have you been so hard on your servant? And why have I not found [לֹא מָצָאתִי (lōʾ māṣāʾtī)] favor in your sight, that you have laid the burden of all this people on me?”In the golden calf incident, no favor is found in God's sight—only consequence. Yet, Moses stands in the breach and intercedes (Exodus 34:9).“If now I have found [מָצָאתִי (māṣāʾtī)] favor in your sight…”Esther, having found favor, risks her life to save her people (Esther 8:5).“If it pleases the king, and if I have found [מָצָאתִי (māṣāʾtī)] favor before him, and the matter seems proper to the king…”In all these examples, those who found favor stood in the breach for others—unlike the people of the Gerasenes, who reject the one who intercedes against the Roman Legion. Their response echoes Israel's rebellion in the wilderness, when the people grumbled against Moses and said:“If only the Lord had killed us in the land of Egypt when we sat by pots of meat and ate our fill of bread! But you have brought us out into this wilderness to make us all die of hunger.” (Exodus 16:3).Though they had been delivered, they longed for the security of slavery rather than trust in the provision of God. So too in Luke 8, the people, confronted with divine mercy in the healed man, recoil in fear and send Jesus away.Bloody cowards.They cannot bear the grace that unmasks their allegiance to the 1%—the settled urban elites who love injustice. As in the wilderness, favor is offered—but refused. Grace stands before them, confronting their false peace—and they choose Pharaoh. Cowardice draped in civility. In the end, refusing to take a stand is the most wicked stand of all. May their dinner parties be found worthy of the price.FOUND JUDGMENTThe people “find” judgment—מ־צ־א (mem–ṣade–aleph)—not by seeking it, but by standing in the way of divine mercy. In Luke 8:35–37, those who witness the healed man respond with fear rather than submission. The grace shown to the possessed becomes a sign of judgment for those who reject it. This reversal echoes throughout Scripture: to “find” is to be found out by God—exposed, weighed, measured, and confronted. “Finding” unmasks guilt, and divine justice follows swiftly—even when grace has already been extended:Egypt, the symbol of empire and wealth, is found stripped bare—exposed in its powerlessness before God. The Egyptians, found lacking, are emptied of silver and reduced to servitude (Genesis 47:14).“And Joseph collected all the money that was found [הַנִּמְצָא (hannimṣāʾ)] in the land of Egypt…”A thief is found in possession of stolen goods, and the act triggers justice (Exodus 22:4).“If what he stole is actually found [נִמְצָא (nimṣāʾ)] alive in his possession… he shall pay double.”The people ga...

Is it harder to stay faithful when life falls apart—or when everything goes your way? In this episode, Stephen Davey walks through Genesis 41, where Joseph is suddenly elevated from prison to power. He's now Egypt's second-in-command. He wears royal robes, holds Pharaoh's ring, and commands a nation. But this is more than a promotion—it's a test of character. Stephen explains why prosperity is often a greater test than adversity. While pain can deepen faith, success can weaken it. Comfort can dull your dependence on God. In this powerful message, you'll see how Joseph passes the test. He gives credit to God. He makes wise decisions. He names his sons to honor the Lord. Through it all, he never forgets who raised him up. You'll also learn why prosperity can eliminate faith and weaken character if left unchecked. Stephen highlights the danger of forgetting God in seasons of abundance, and he urges you to measure success by spiritual integrity—not external achievement. If you're praying for blessing, this episode will prepare your heart to receive it. If you're already in a place of influence or ease, it will help you guard your heart. The message is clear: honor God in success the same way you depend on Him in suffering.
