Judah and Tamar38 It happened at that time that Judah went down from his brothers and turned aside to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.2 There Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua. He took her and went in to her, 3 and she conceived and bore a son, and he called his name Er. 4 She conceived again and bore a son, and she called his name Onan. 5 Yet again she bore a son, and she called his name Shelah. Judah was in Chezib when she bore him.6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.7 But Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord put him to death. 8 Then Judah said to Onan, “Go in to your brother's wife and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.” 9 But Onan knew that the offspring would not be his. So whenever he went in to his brother's wife he would waste the semen on the ground, so as not to give offspring to his brother.10 And what he did was wicked in the sight of the Lord, and he put him to death also. 11 Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, “Remain a widow in your father's house, till Shelah my son grows up”—for he feared that he would die, like his brothers. So Tamar went and remained in her father's house.12 In the course of time the wife of Judah, Shua's daughter, died. When Judah was comforted, he went up to Timnah to his sheepshearers, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite. 13 And when Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,” 14 she took off her widow's garments and covered herself with a veil, wrapping herself up, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah. For she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she had not been given to him in marriage. 15 When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face. 16 He turned to her at the roadside and said, “Come, let me come in to you,” for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, “What will you give me, that you may come in to me?” 17 He answered, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” And she said, “If you give me a pledge, until you send it—” 18 He said, “What pledge shall I give you?” She replied, “Your signet and your cord and your staff that is in your hand.” So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she conceived by him. 19 Then she arose and went away, and taking off her veil she put on the garments of her widowhood.20 When Judah sent the young goat by his friend the Adullamite to take back the pledge from the woman's hand, he did not find her. 21 And he asked the men of the place, “Where is the cult prostitute who was at Enaim at the roadside?” And they said, “No cult prostitute has been here.” 22 So he returned to Judah and said, “I have not found her. Also, the men of the place said, ‘No cult prostitute has been here.'” 23 And Judah replied, “Let her keep the things as her own, or we shall be laughed at. You see, I sent this young goat, and you did not find her.”24 About three months later Judah was told, “Tamar your daughter-in-law has been immoral. Moreover, she is pregnant by immorality.” And Judah said, “Bring her out, and let her be burned.” 25 As she was being brought out, she sent word to her father-in-law, “By the man to whom these belong, I am pregnant.” And she said, “Please identify whose these are, the signet and the cord and the staff.” 26 Then Judah identified them and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not know her again.27 When the time of her labor came, there were twins in her womb.28 And when she was in labor, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, “This one came out first.”29 But as he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out. And she said, “What a breach you have made for yourself!” Therefore his name was called Perez...

Spirit of Praise - May the Fourth be with you!Website: http://www.battle4freedom.com/Network: https://www.mojo50.comStreaming: https://www.rumble.com/Battle4FreedomPsalm 7:18I thank Adonai for his righteousness and sing praise to the name of Adonai `Elyon.https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis%2029%3A35%2CGenesis%2038%3A29%2CDaniel%203%3A25&version=CJBThree verses on Fourths!Genesis 38:1 It was at this time that Y'hudah went off from his brothers and settled near a man named Hirah who was an `Adulami. 2 There Y'hudah saw one of the daughters of a certain Kena`ani whose name was Shua, and he took her and slept with her. 3 She conceived and had a son, whom he named `Er. 4 She conceived again and had a son, and she called him Onan. 5 Then she conceived yet again and had a son whom she called Shelah; he was in K'ziv when she gave birth to him.Genesis 38:6 Y'hudah took a wife for `Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar. 7 But `Er, Y'hudah's firstborn, was evil from Adonai's perspective, so Adonai killed him. 8 Y'hudah said to Onan, "Go and sleep with your brother's wife — perform the duty of a husband's brother to her, and preserve your brother's line of descent." 9 However, Onan knew that the child would not count as his; so whenever he had intercourse with his brother's wife, he spilled the semen on the ground, so as not to give his brother offspring. 10 What he did was evil from Adonai's perspective, so he killed him too.Genesis 38:11 Then Y'hudah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, "Stay a widow in your father's house until my son Shelah grows up"; for he thought, "I don't want him to die too, like his brothers." So Tamar went and lived at home with her father. 12 In due time, Shua's daughter, the wife of Y'hudah, died. After Y'hudah had been comforted, he went up to be with his sheep-shearers in Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the `Adulami. 13 Tamar was told, "Your father-in-law has gone up to Timnah to shear his sheep." 14 So she took off her widow's clothes, completely covered her face with her veil, and sat at the entrance to `Einayim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that Shelah had grown up, but she still was not being given to him as his wife.Genesis 38:15 When Y'hudah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, because she had covered her face. 16 So he went over to her where she was sitting and said, not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, "Come, let me sleep with you." She answered, "What will you pay to sleep with me?" 17 He said, "I will send you a kid from the flock of goats." She said, "Will you also give me something as a guarantee until you send it" 18 He answered, "What should I give you as a guarantee?" She said, "Your seal, with its cord, and the staff you're carrying in your hand." So he gave them to her, then went and slept with her; and she conceived by him. 19 She got up and went away, took off her veil and put on her widow's clothes.Genesis 38:20 Y'hudah sent the kid with his friend the `Adulami to receive the guarantee items back from the woman, but he couldn't find her. 21 He asked the people near where she had been, "Where is the prostitute who was on the road at `Einayim?" But they answered, "There hasn't been any prostitute here." 22 So he returned to Y'hudah and said, "I couldn't find her; also the people there said, `There hasn't been any prostitute here.'" 23 Y'hudah said, "All right, let her keep the things, so that we won't be publicly shamed. I sent the kid, but you didn't find her."Genesis 38:24 About three months later Y'hudah was told, "Tamar your daughter-in-law has been acting like a whore; moreover, she is pregnant as a result of her prostitution." Y'hudah said, "Bring her out, and let her be burned alive!" 25 When she was brought out, she sent this message to her father-in-law: "I am pregnant by the man to whom these things belong. Determine, I beg you, whose these are — the signet, the cords and the staff." 26 Then Y'hudah acknowledged owning them. He said, "She is more righteous than I, because I didn't let her become the wife of my son Shelah." And he never slept with her again.Genesis 38:27 When she went into labor, it became evident that she was going to have twins. 28 As she was in labor, one of them put out his hand; and the midwife took his hand and tied a scarlet thread on it, saying, "This one came out first." 29 But then he withdrew his hand, and his brother came out; so she said, "How did you manage to break out first?" Therefore he was named Peretz [breaking out]. 30 Then out came his brother, with the scarlet thread on his hand, and he was given the name Zerach [scarlet].Did Onan die because he did not want to have children?Levirate-marriage is a strange custom for us today.  It required one brother to marry the wife of a brother who died and who did not have a son. Our question is about Onan who did not want this responsibility. The custom of levirate-marriage was practiced throughout the Old Testament (Genesis 38:6-10; Ruth 4:10) and even into Christ's time (Matthew 22:24). It is clear this was a divine principle during the time of the book of Genesis, and it was finally written down as part of the Mosaic Law,https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy%2025%3A5-10&version=CJBDeuteronomy 25:5-105 "If brothers live together, and one of them dies childless, his widow is not to marry someone unrelated to him; her husband's brother is to go to her and perform the duty of a brother-in-law by marrying her. 6 The first child she bears will succeed to the name of his dead brother, so that his name will not be eliminated from Isra'el. 7 If the man does not wish to marry his brother's widow, then his brother's widow is to go up to the gate, to the leaders, and say, `My brother-in-law refuses to raise up for his brother a name in Isra'el; he will not perform the duty of a husband's brother for me.' 8 The leaders of his town are to summon him and speak to him. If, on appearing before them, he continues to say, `I don't want to marry her,' 9 then his brother's widow is to approach him in the presence of the leaders, pull his sandal off his foot, spit in his face and say, `This is what is done to the man who refuses to build up his brother's family.' 10 From that time on, his family is to be known in Isra'el as `the family of the man who had his sandal pulled off.'Credits:https://unsplash.com/@xangriffin - Person Praisinghttps://unsplash.com/@danist07 - Clouds

They explore how the holiday started and how it turned into what we know today, where a groundhog predicts the weather for the year ahead, because, apparently, we trust rodents to be trustworthy meteorologists. The guys also dissect the beloved film, touching on the themes of personal growth, redemption, and how a guy stuck in the same day for so long can still teach us something about life. Along the way, they toss out their own theories on just how long Phil was trapped in that time loop and what it might have been like to live through it. And Jay gives Shua some trivia about the movie and the holiday that you probably didn't know, unless, of course, you're a groundhog. What do you like about Groundhog Day?

Enjoy Apes!  This week we're taking a deep dive into the Planet of the Apes franchise, starting with the original five films that changed the sci-fi landscape forever. From groundbreaking makeup effects to thought-provoking themes about society, freedom, and the future, we'll break down what made these films so iconic. We'll even talk about that legendary twist ending—spoiler alert: it's not just the apes who are monkeying with time! Get ready for a walk through the ‘60s and ‘70s, where human civilization was thrown into chaos… but at least there were plenty of monkeys to blame.   Then, we swing into the remakes, reboots, and the massive media expansion that followed. From the 2001 Tim Burton film to the recent reboots, we'll discuss how the franchise evolved and stayed relevant in the modern era. We'll also chat about the Planet of the Apes animated series, the live-action TV show, and even the comic books that kept the ape-filled madness alive. It's a bananas good time, so don't go ape on us—tune in for a full breakdown of everything from the original films to the latest apes on screen!    And, as an added bonus, we play a game of Deli Food or Ape? What game is that? Tune in to find out! Do you go bananas for the Planet of the Apes?

childhoods. This week we look at generations of playing with He-Man, Hot Wheels, and more toys that kept us from doing our homework on Enjoy Stuff! We're celebrating with a trip through Mattel's toy-tastic history—because who wouldn't want to revisit their childhood with fewer "please don't swallow that" warnings? Tune into Enjoy Stuff for a look back at the toys that defined generations! News CES reveals a very cool retro handheld game called Atari Gamestation Go Want another way to play retro games on your phone? You need the GameBaby  Got some purple cheddar? You could buy Prince's Purple Rain shirt  Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Is life really a happy song? Shua tried to find out when he rewatched a Shua Family favorite, the 2011 revival, The Muppets. It's a fun romp with the classic characters and a few new friends, like the whistling Muppet fan, Walter. Plus, it resurfaced some great memories with his kids. Jay re-read Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline. Despite not having the same umph as the first book, there were some good moments that celebrated the pop culture we grew up with.      Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay slingshots back and forth with The Time Traveler's Wife (2009). In this fairly unique take on time travel, Henry (Eric Bana) has a genetic condition that causes him to boomerang through time. Which makes it pretty hard for Clare (Rachel McAdams) to have an engaging marriage, (or at least throw a good surprise party).  Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU. Enjoy Toys!  Jay and Shua are celebrating Mattel's 80th anniversary by taking a nostalgic deep dive into the legendary toy company's history. From Barbie's dream house to Hot Wheels' epic car chases, they explore the toys that made generations of kids skip school, forget chores, and sometimes go through barrels of batteries playing Electronic Football. With a side of humor and a sprinkle of nostalgia, they also discuss the evolution of Mattel's lineup, including the iconic He-Man action figures—because nothing says "childhood" like battling over who had the better sword.    The guys also dig into some classics too, like the 3D magic of the View-Master (which was basically your first VR headset, minus the headache) and the intense, back-and-forth slugfests of Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots. As they chat about Mattel's rise to toy royalty, they'll take you on a wild ride through their most cherished memories, sharing funny stories about toys that taught us all how to "play hard" and sometimes "play dirty." Get ready for a rollercoaster of laughs and memories as they celebrate the legacy of a company that's been keeping kids (and adults) entertained for eight decades.   Did we mention one of your favorite Mattel toys? Which ones shaped your childhood? First person that emails me with the subject line, “You can tell it's Mattel, it's swell!” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know.

A romp through the galaxy that crosses Star Wars with the Goonies.      Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay examines some social commentary with Neill Blomkamp's District 9. The 2009 alien immigrant film reflects a sad and ugly truth about the way humans treat each other. A gritty story set in the near future that features a poor character slowly realizes that bigotry is an issue that everyone should be aware and try to eliminate. Read his article on RetroZap.com.

Enjoy Dragons!  Dragon tales have been told since the times of Mesopotamian mythology. Some believe that dragons may have been creatures to watch out for as far back as 75,000 years ago in South Africa. Whenever they began, their popularity has not waned. So when we began to make motion pictures, dragons were the perfect foils. We look at dragons from Puff to Maleficent to King Ghidorah. Are they rideable? What are some defining characteristics?

Enjoy Movies!  Fans of Monty Python may know Terry Gilliam as the animator of their bizarre cartoons featured on the show. Or as the only American born member of the legendary troupe. But as his career progressed, Gilliam took his imaginative talents to the director's chair.

From the time-hopping child view of Time Bandits, to the award winning exploration of class structure in Brazil, Gilliam takes you on a brain trip with each of his tales. If it weren't for his terrible luck during productions, we may have even more to explore.

Exploring the Depths of Chanukah: Lessons from Likutei MoharanIn this video, the speaker begins a new series on the second lesson from the second section of Likutei Moharan, titled 'Yimei Chanukah,' with a focus on the deeper spiritual aspects of Chanukah. Sponsored by the Schiffman family, the lesson aims for the merit and healing of certain individuals. The speaker emphasizes the profound teachings of Rabbi Nachman and clarifies that interpretations shared are his own understanding. The lesson explores themes of gratitude, praise, and the concept of 'Sha'a Shua,' or delight of the world to come. It discusses how Chanukah, viewed as Jewish Thanksgiving, offers an opportunity to draw the light of future redemption into the present. The class also touches on Jewish mysticism, the transformative power of gratitude, and being constantly aware of and connected to Hashem. Practical advice is given on how to integrate these teachings into everyday life to experience a deeper spiritual connection, particularly during Chanukah.00:00 Introduction00:49 Beginning the Torah Lesson03:35 Understanding Chanukah and Thanksgiving05:04 Exploring the Concept of Shashua11:30 The Delight of Olam Haba20:42 Levels of Gratitude and Awareness30:03 A Serendipitous Encounter at the Bakery30:45 Recognizing Divine Guidance31:51 Living with Awareness of Hashem32:49 The Loop of Gratitude and Praise35:10 Drawing Olam Haba into This World38:46 The Symbolism of Chanukah43:46 The Oneness of Hashem50:50 Applying the Teachings in Daily Life55:21 Conclusion and Call to Action
