PLEASE FILL OUT OUR SURVEY: https://bit.ly/BLNOlistenersurveyContinuing their analysis of the Ten Commandments through Genesis 27, Rabbi Fohrman and Imu focus on two pivotal commands: Shabbat and honoring one's parents. They begin by uncovering surprising connections between Rebecca's plea for Jacob's safety and the concept of divine rest. How does Jacob's exhausting fourteen-year labor under Lavan transform our understanding of Shabbat? And what can this teach us about finding true rest in our own lives?The discussion then turns to the command of Kibbud Av v'Em - honoring both father and mother. Through a close reading of Esav's response to his parents' values, even after feeling betrayed, they reveal how this command speaks to something far deeper than mere obedience. It points to the delicate art of maintaining wholeness in relationships, ultimately connecting to our relationship with the land itself.Join Rabbi Fohrman and Imu as they demonstrate how these two commands emerge not as arbitrary rules, but as profound wisdom about maintaining balance in our most fundamental relationships - with time, with family, and with the earth that sustains us.Intrigued by our discussion of land as our grandparents? Explore this idea further in our Shavuot episode of Into the Verse. For a deeper dive, we recommend Rabbi Fohrman's courses A Tale of Two Names: Elokim and YHVH and The Meaning of Life, as well as his analysis of the deception story in this essay from his book Genesis: A Parsha Companion, as well as this video Why Did Rebecca Trick Her Husband Isaac.

The Underwater Army of Abaddon - Walking on Water Part 4 In Walking on Water Part Three, we looked in depth at the Gospel of Matthew 14:22-33 account of Yeshua and Peter walking on water. Peter lost faith when he saw the wind, and he had to call on Yeshua.When it looks like the angels of the four winds, or princes and principalities, or spiritual darkness in high places (and low ones!) are bringing destruction, our confidence is in the right arm and saving hand of YHVH, Yeshua. For Peter, the last watch of the night, the time of immindent destruction, was too close for comfort. He knew that the "dry land" he walked on could turn to stones of destruction at any second.Yeshua said to Peter, "Come!" In Hebrew, he said, "Bo!" [???]That should sound familiar from our Reed Sea salvation as well:The sons of Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry land,?????????? ???????????????? ???????? ?????? ?????????????The verb? Yavo-u! The collective congregation in plural form of Bo. Peter knew YHVH walking on water had happened in the past...if Yeshua was who he said he was, the son of YHVH, then wouldn't he want the disciples to Bo! now in their present time of trouble as well? If it was Yeshua, then it wasn't a “ghost,” a spirit assigned to the East Wind, but Salvation guiding the East Wind.This is an example to us that neither should we be distracted by the tempestuous spiritual forces being used to shepherd us into safe haven.In this newsletter, we need to review the dark spiritual forces of "Egypt" that were bound at the Abyss of the Reed Sea and how they play a role in the prophecies of Revelation. It's a necessary layer of understanding to help us take the next step with Yeshua, the dry land, the resurrection, and the mystery of its mikveh.It also is an encouragement that even as we walk on the water with Yeshua when he says "Bo!", he is marshaling the King of Abaddon and "Egypt" to take vengeance on the very adversaries who pursued us. He is surrounding us with a protective, pure tunnel of salvation.Please review the Chariots of the Abyss this week, and we will progress to the mystery of immersion in Messiah next week. Since each of these lessons of the mini-series builds on the previous one, it is recommended to print and review in order if possible.Also, if you want to review a related video, Chariots of Abaddon it is free to view on YouTube.Please SUBSCRIBE to our newsletter to get new teachings.

In this episode, we explore a mystical passage from the Zohar (Pinchas 102:679) that unpacks the ancient Yom Kippur ritual of the two goats—one offered to YHVH, the other sent to Azazel. Through this lens, we reflect on the dual nature of spiritual work: reaching toward unity and compassion while also facing and integrating our inner shadows. Paired with teachings from the Degel Machaneh Ephraim, Meor Einayim, and Maor VaShemesh on the command to "be holy," we uncover a rich tapestry of insights about communal holiness, spiritual humility, and the ongoing journey of becoming. This episode is a deep dive into the paradox of wholeness: that holiness is found not by escaping the world, but by embracing it fully—together.

When You Walk on Water, ?Remember This - Part Three In Walking on Water Part Two, we looked in depth at the Gospel of Matthew 14:22-33 account of Yeshua walking on water. The "fourth watch of the night" was our key phrase, helping us to understand the elation, terror, and sinking feeling Peter might have had as he processed: a) Sababa! Yes! I can walk on water like it's dry land! It's like the Exodus! b) Oy vey! It's the last watch of the night, and the wind will allow the waters to return to normal at daybreak! I could be killed like Pharaoh's army! Yeshua, however, had authority over the wind frightening Peter with its ability to destroy armies and pound them into the abyss of a watery grave. Yeshua's authority over the angels of the four winds and all other principalities and powers is a second key to understanding why Peter might have had that sinking feeling that his solid footing in the water might collapse. One example is the destruction of Sodom and three other cities of the valley at sunrise. Oddly, the text describes Lot and his daughters as arriving in Zoar when the sun came up, yet, this is when the angel took them by the hand to depart Sodom! How could they be in two places almost simultaneously? It was humanly impossible to escape to Zoar that fast unless there was a supernatural quality to the angel's "hand" that saved them. Likewise, Yeshua took Peter's hand when Peter cried out, "Lord, save me!" Yeshua walked him to the boat, and John adds a detail: “So they were willing to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going” even though the text states they were three or four miles along the water. (Jn 6:21) This, too, would be impossible if Yeshua's hand of salvation weren't supernaturally fast transportation. A boat is a symbol in Scripture not only of international commerce, but of how nations and continents are connected and interconnected. The fact that walking on water occurs on the Galilee is also symbolic. Galilee came to be known as "Galilee of the Nations" not only because of the diverse people groups that lived there during epochs of history, but because of Isaiah's prophecy: But there will be no more gloom for her who was in anguish; in earlier times He treated the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali with contempt, but later on He shall make it glorious, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles. The people who walk in darkness will see a great light; those who live in a dark land, the light will shine on them. (Is 9:1-2) While Peter made the connection between the Exodus past and a prophesied Exodus of the future, the Book of Acts suggests he didn't completely internalize the commission to the Gentiles until much later. Perhaps he assumed that Isaiah's prophecy was intended only for the lost Israelites among the nations who were to be restored by Messiah. Indeed, the deportation of many Israelites and Jews occurred from that very area, yet the Greater Exodus will also draw many from every nation, tribe, and tongue just as it did in the first Exodus. All those who call on the Name of YHVH will be saved then as Peter demonstrated. In Part One, we parsed the Hebrew text of Exodus 14:21 to see that the English translations of how the water was swept back all night didn't do justice to the text: “Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD swept the sea back…” But let's read the literal words: “And stretched Moshe his hand over the sea and will walk YHVH the sea…” For modern English grammar purposes, let's read: “and YHVH will walk the sea.” It explained why Yeshua, the arm of YHVH, walked on water and why Peter believed it might be Yeshua instead of a "ghost"...and why he, too, might walk on water: The sons of Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, ?????????? ????????????????

Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a two-part look at parsha "Shmini," Leviticus chapters 9 through 11. The Erev Shabbat (Friday evening) reading begins with the story of the "eighth [shmini] day" and the events leading to the deaths of Aaron's two eldest sons. And it completes with the instruction of what is "food," and what is not. The confluence certainly suggests there is a connection, regardless of what we may have been told by many who, "by your traditions, make the commandments of YHVH of no effect." The Erev Shabbat reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/SSM-4-25-25-Shmini-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 As seems to be so often the case, the Torah portion story this week has a relevance to current events that demonstrates the timelessness of the message, as the lawless claim that "no one is above the law," has become a sick joke. Mark notes that there has been much discussion over the centuries of why "Aaron kept his peace," or remained silent, after the death of his two oldest sons, Nadab and Abihu. One of the explanations might be that he realized, after the 'golden calf,' that he, himself, had arguably deserved, but been spared, a similar fate. So, why those two? What did they really do? Even though Scripture explicitly tells us, questions remain. Because, "to whom much is given, much is expected." Shmini: "No One is Above the Law. And they Knew, or Should Have Known." https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/WT-CooH-4-26-25-Shmini-NO-One-is-Above-the-Law-Knew-or-Should-Have-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

Why are Christians Keeping the Feast of Tabernacles?The page to learn about the North Kansas City Feast site is https://firstcenturychristianity.net/fot-2025/You may be hearing about Christians who keep the biblical festivals and are wondering what that's all about. As it turns out, the first century church continued to observe the biblical holy days. In fact, both Gentile and Jewish people who accepted Yeshua, Jesus, as the Messiah, continued to fellowship in the synagogues for over a hundred years after Yeshua ascended. We see hints of this in the New Testament, notably at 1 Cor 5 when Paul reminds the Corinthians to continue keeping Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread, the Spring biblical holy days, as an analogy for addressing some other problems in their assembly. Keeping these days were so not in doubt that Paul is able to use them as analogies, like we would use Thanksgiving or the 4th of July today. In other words, it is completely taken for granted that the gentile converts in Corinth are observing Passover that Paul is able to use that practice at a teaching tool. What about the Feast of Tabernacles, also called Sukkot? This festival happens in the fall. It was ordained, just like Passover, as a memorial of the Exodus. The Israelites had to live in temporary dwellings for 40 years in the wilderness so this festival is a reminder of that. But it's also a humongous celebration because they got to cross into the promised land and enjoy the food and freedom that came with living the way God intended in the land He set apart!Passover is a memorial of the Exodus and crossing into the Promised land but we all know now that it was a prophecy of the Messiah, the Lamb of God, coming down from heaven to live a sinless life and bear our transgressions. Tabernacles follows this same pattern. It's a memorial to living in temporary dwellings, called sukkot, the plural of sukkah. That's a reminder that our time in this life is temporary, that there is something more out there. But there is a specific prophecy about this observance in the Old Testament book of Zechariah, chapter 14, verses 16-18. This prophecy states that at a future time, the entire world will either observe the Feat of Tabernacles. Those who don't will die by famine because there will be no rain on their lands. This is a future prophecy. Nothing like this has ever happened in history. Most who study prophecy and believe this will happen place the event in the 1000 year Messianic kingdom that begins when Yeshua, Jesus, returns. Whenever this happens, though, it's a prophecy about all nations keeping the Feast of Tabernacles in the future. So many of us ask why not now?Many Christians have returned to the practices of the first century church because it just makes sense. The bible is one story, from Genesis to Revelation, about God's relationship with mankind and His desire to have a relationship with us. A big blessing in keeping God's holy days is that our faith and our lifestyle become one. We who keep these days walk out our faith all year long, planning for the next set of holy days, enjoying the last ones, and living the way we believe all mankind will live when Yeshua, Jesus, returns. We will be hosting the Feast of Tabernacles in North Kansas City this year (2025). This year, we are going to teach the basics of why the holy days apply to Christians. The dates are October 7-14 and we would love for you to join us whether you are local or coming from out of town. Please consider joining us and you can find the information and register at the FOT25 link on firstcenturychristianity.net. I will post that link wherever this gets posted. You may also join us each week for services, online or in person, every Saturday at 1pm central time.Thanks for your time and may YHVH bless you and keep you, in the Name of His Son, Yeshua.

Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a special "Holy-and-UN" Day rip-roaring discussion of things that don't fall into the regular annual Torah reading cycle, but are absolutely relevant 'for such a time as this.' For the Erev Shabbat (Friday evening) reading, Mark was led to examine Ezekiel's vision in chapters 8 and 9, in a story he refers to as the "angel with the inkhorn." And it is undeniably relevant to much of what is happening now, and this weekend in particular. The Erev Shabbat reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/SSM-4-18-25-Dealers-Choice-special-teaching-for-Ishatar-sun-god-day-Ezekiel-8-9-podcast-xxx.mp3 During the 'change-of-pace' Sabbath Day message, Mark again takes up the theme of the current 'cusp,' or turning point, but with the understanding that we have been told that "things hidden will be revealed." (Matthew 10:26 et al) And it's not just pagan practices that have supposedly been 'christianized,' in spite of the fact that YHVH says so bluntly that He "hates" them. It's virtually every aspect of our world that you can name, from economics, to politics, to science...and even the no-longer-hidden open treason among those "Black-robed priests of Satan." Buckle up. This is one you won't want to miss! 419, False Flags, Fake Gods - Things Hidden Until Such a Time as This https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/WT-CooH-4-19-25-419-Things-Hidden-Being-Revealed-On-the-Cusp-podcast-xxxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

Passover: Walking on Water More specifically, Chag HaMatzah, or the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Before I explain that, let's begin with a not-rhetorical two-part question: Why did Yeshua walk on water? Why did the wind scare Peter? Last week's newsletter established the underpinnings of the WOW season (Walking on Water). Review: The last watch of the night is a last opportunity to flee false security. It is the last opportunity to flee the people whose wicked agenda vexes the righteous Holy Spirit within. If one waits until the morning's dawn to flee, he flees with nothing. Only the deeds of the righteous can follow them into the eternal Kingdom of Messiah, for those are the only eternally true and fit deeds. The overturn of the cities of Sodom likely took place at Passover, for Lot baked unleavened bread for the angel of wrath. The Wrath of the Lamb struck the cities of Sodom right at dawn, when Lot and his daughters reached safety and the last watch of the night becomes the past. Likewise, at dawn, after the strong East Wind completed its work of arranging the waters, the Israelites traveled through the waters to reach safety. ?The Israelites still had the flesh of the Passover lamb, bitter herbs, and matzah in their bellies. Having obeyed YHVH's instructions, they were protected from the Wrath of the Lamb on Egypt and Pharaoh. All they had to do was Walk on Water, to escape to freedom. WOW! So back to our question: why did Yeshua walk on water?

This week we begin the reading and study of the Book of Vayikra, or Leviticus, with chapters 1 through 5. And, sadly, this is one of those Books where some folks just hear the name ('Leviticus') and their eyes begin to glaze over; "it's SO boring," and "what difference does it make anyway?" Which is the best reason you'll hear to take an honest look at what it really says, why it matters NOW, more than ever, and why we have been lied to so thoroughly about all of it. Because you can't understand the real Messiah, or recognize the fakes, without understanding what we have almost certainly NOT been taught! Starting with the overview, and reading, to understand a bit of that distinction: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/SSM-4-4-25-Vayikra-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 The Sabbath day in-depth 'midrash' picks up with that vital distinction. And, WARNING: This will upset some folks, because John had it right. (I John chapter 2) He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. And that describes accurately what Mark Call refers to as BOTH the 'Whore Church," and the "Whore Synagogue." And this is where it will be made very clear why that is not only accurate, but vital to understand. Yes, many if not most of us who have attended the vast majority of 'denominational churches' have probably heard the term "Old" Testament, and one of the Biggest Lies in all of history: that somehow "Jesus did away with the Law," or "nailed it to the cross," so nothing the Bible says about "sacrifices" matters any more. Could it be that there is something vitally important that is missing? This week those "battle lines" became ever more clear. Vayikra: AI-dolatry -- When Does Mere Ignorance Become Outright Rebellion to YHVH? https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/WT-CooH-4-5-25-Vayikra-AIdolatry-Teaching-INTENTIONAL-sin-to-the-Deliberately-Ignorant-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

The Torah reading called "Pekudei" (for the "accounts" that summarized the making of the 'mishkan,' or Tabernacle in the Wilderness, from Exodus 38:10 through the end of the Book) is the final parsha the the opening saga of the Exodus. And while the story has only really begun at that point, it's an inspired summary of what mattered then, and still does:  the phrase "as YHVH commanded Moshe [Moses]" is repeated eighteen times in this parsha alone, and the level of repeated detail on the work the 'mixed multitude' did together is, in large measure, also repeated, but with a change of tense:  that which they were TOLD to do, they, and Moses, DID -- and, again, "as YHVH commanded Moshe." There is clearly a message there. While most of us who have attended the vast majority of 'denominational churches' have probably heard the term "Old" Testament, and even that "the Law" was somehow away with later, as if it no longer applies, and what matters instead is the 'spirit' that is in our hearts, Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa suggests we had better understand the MANY other admonitions in Scripture, including warnings from Shaul, or Paul, that have been twisted.  He starts with a look at the First Letter Paul wrote to the Corinthians, and chapter 3.  But it is undeniable, to those with "eyes to see," that the ReNewed Covenant, in places like Jeremiah 31:31 is not quite what most of us have been taught, either. As we see the battle lines being drawn in a world which has largely rejected the True Messiah in favor of "another jesus whom we have NOT preached," Mark suggests it has never been more important not only that we know WHICH Spirit is "holy" and how to know, but that we understand why what "Yahuah commanded Moshe" is still the Foundation -- just as Yahushua HaMashiach, the Messiah, said, and taught.  He never changed so much as a "yod or tiddle." And He summarized it all simply, too:   "If you love Me, keep My commandments." Which?  All of 'em.  The ones He Wrote, and Taught, and has never changed. If we are now to be His "temple," and His Holy Spirit is to dwell within our hearts, we need to understand what that really means.

Jehoshaphat seeks Yhvh, so Yhvh blesses him.

Many people leave christianity in order to pursue Torah, but the enemy doesn't want that to happen, so he uses his minions to divert those who pursue YHVH. 

Restoring a pure language – that's not today and we're not going to do that on our own. Genesis 11:1 Trying to do this ourselves is likely prohibited. We know that when mankind tries to act like YHVH, He is not pleased. The verse from Isaiah about rebuilding Jerusalem better. Isaiah 9:8-11 when Ephraim and the Samarians say in their heart ehy will rebuild Israel better, it is considered from pride and self-will, thus YHVH sends adversaries to smite them more. By extension, we should realize that until He wants language restored, it will not happen.That doesn't mean we don't try to learn what the ancients were communicating, but we need to be cognizant of pride, our motivations, and the reality of our present state. While we can learn a lot from studying, we need to realize they were in a state of flux as well. It's Genesis 11 where mankind had a unified language. That means Moses did not.Entropy is a word that means chaos or disorder always increases. This is often illustrated by dropping a perfect pile of marbles on the ground to see how the marbles that travel the furthest have the largest deviation from the original pile. Our present state of language is an enormous illustration of this. I recently found a fun YouTube channel called RobWords. This gentleman traces the history of languages throughout history. What I learned, and should have already known, is that our English alphabet isn't the English alphabet at all. It's the Latin alphabet. The English alphabet is a set of characters called runes. I know English is a mutt of a language, but I found the extent of this to be astonishing. I have put a link to one of Rob's videos in the comments and hope you find time to watch. I've watched a number of his presentations and am floored each time. But it reminds me that for us in our present state of perpetual confusion to think we have some miniscule chance at restoring the pure language ourselves is absolute folly.Rob Words video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4npuVmGxXukThe other remarkable illustration of this is rooted in the restoration of the nation of Judah which is called Israel today. A member of our group sent this video to me about two years ago. When the Jews from all over the world returned to Israel, they set about recording how those who had kept Hebrew alive pronounced the language. Not surprising at all, but the different regions spoke the language significantly different from each other. This video illustrates some of the differences, which even persist to this day. Of course, we all know that languages are not static from English. The Australians and British have distinctly different accents and inside of the US, we have widely varying accents ourselves. Somehow, though, we get it into our minds that Hebrew is immune from change when it certainly is not. Hebrew spoken from Jews who returned to the land. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1ofUZB-76wI hope you all find some time to watch these videos. A couple takeaways from today's message are that we should really be aware of our present state and set realistic goals for our studies. The expectation that we get the pronunciations perfect today simply is not true. We also need to be wary of shunning legitimate scholars and history in our studies. We have a tendency to do this because of how skewed Christianity has become by academia and clergy, but let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater. Good and edifying information is out there, even if it takes a bit of work to find it.Have a blessed week as we begin or continue our preparations for this year's Passover season. May Yahweh bless you and keep you in the Name of His Son, Yeshua. https://firstcenturychristianity.net/a-reality-check-on-restoring-language/

This may be one of the most important - and certainly controversial - teachings that Mark Call, of Shabbat Shalom Mesa Fellowship has done. Because it hits at the very heart of what "Come out of her, My people," is about. Parsha "Ki Tisa" (Exodus chapters 30 through 34) includes on of the most infamous tragedies in the Bible - the story of the 'Golden Calf,' and Moses' subsequent throwing down and destruction of the first set of tablets, engraved with the very 'finger of YHVH.' And that, too, is symbolic of what has been done by the mob that "assembled" or "gathered" against Aaron ever since! The Erev Shabbat reading of the portion includes some of the vital context for the story that often tends to be overlooked, given the drama that follows: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/SSM-3-14-25-Ki-Tisa-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 What is less well-understood is that the entire context of that story reflects on what another "assembly" (or, even 'ecclesia' for those that have heard the Greek term) has done almost universally, over and over again, throughout history. And still continues. The Sabbath Day midrash addresses the 'twisting' that Kefa/Peter talked about (II Peter 3:15-16) and how, in particular, Paul's second letter to the Corinthians has been almost completely "turned on its head," as is seem by a look at this story, and the context of chapter 3 of that Book. [Hebrew Nation Radio is having some server issues - this will be uploaded later...] If you find this valuable, or even shocking - please share it. As the Bible makes clear, it really is a matter of life and death. Both segments are combined here:

Parsha "Tetzaveh" (Exodus 27:10 - 30:10) continues the description of elements associated with the still-to-be-built 'tabernacle in the wilderness,' this time beginning with the priestly garments for Aaron and his sons. The Erev Shabbat Reading begins with "command" them to make oil for the menorah, and then continues through the sanctification of the 'cohenim': https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/SSM-3-7-25-Tetzaveh-teaching-podcast-x.mp3 The Sabbath Day midrash concerns a conjunction of events, both historic and current, and associated readings. And as seems to so often be the case, there's more than just coincidence evidently at work now. One of the obvious, and stated, purposes of the garments created "for splendor and for beauty," to be worn by the cohenim (priests) was that they be "set apart" to serve YHVH. And the golden inscription on Aaron's forehead said, "Holy to YHVH." The fact that such a priesthood no longer exists only makes the contrast more clear. But several events this week really brought that home. By almost any Scriptural measure, what we now have instead looks like an "anti-priesthood," set apart not to YHVH, but His "Adversary." And an honest reading of Scripture is "uncomfortably clear" on those implications. Note: The midrash mentions a related look at the story of Esther, and the 'Purim' holiday, which was an element of Mark's observations in the "Come out of her, My people" Show this week: https://hebrewnationonline.com/come-out-of-her-my-people-show-mark-call-weekly-274/ Tetzaveh: What is Amalek?

Parsha "Terumah" (Exodus 25:1 - 27:19) is a major change of pace from the story of the plagues, and the Exodus from bondage in Egypt. While Moses is evidently still up on the mountain, he is told by YHVH to take an 'offering' (terumah) from those with willing hearts. And then follows a description of specifically what, and what it is for. The Erev Shabbat Reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/SSM-2-28-25-Terumah-teaching-podcast-x.mp3 The level of detail in the parsha this week, and even subsequently, is almost an enigma: It is almost overwhelming, and yet were it not for the fact that Moses is told that he is being shown a 'pattern,' or "blueprint," it is pretty evident that what is being described could probably not be built. And it must be done by the effort of the 'skillful workman,' besides. Later, we're even told that those tasked with that work must even be guided by the very Ruach Elohim, or Spirit of YHVH. Many of us, because this is the "Olde" Testament, after all, have probably heard that anything associated with the 'tabernacle' (or later temple) is superfluous now, and even "done away with." Or it's just 'spiritualized' - perhaps even with a bit too much hand-waving. So, even the level of detail included is just not enough, in the sense of being able to completely understand the design... There's something very telling about that. Terumah: Why does the detail seem overwhelming? https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/WT-CooH-3-1-25-Terumah-Detail-can-overwhelm-if-the-BLUEPRINT-is-Wrong-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part reading and Sabbath day midrash is here:

The teacher led me out into the desert ravine where we sat down in the sand, face-to-face. He picked up a stick and, with the slightest of movements, created the smallest of marks in the sand.
"This can change your life," he said.
"An apostrophe?"
"A yud."
"What's a yud?"
"A yud is a letter, the smallest of Hebrew letters ...barely more than a dot, so small you could miss it. From the yud came the Roman letters I and J. And from the yud came the Greek letter iota."
"As in 'not one iota.'"
"Yes, or as in 'not one jot.' It all comes from the same tiny letter."
"So it's the smallest of letters. Why is it significant?"
"That's the point ...as the smallest of letters, it is most significant. It is the yud that begins the greatest and most sacred of Hebrew words: The sacred Name of God, YHVH, begins with a yud. The land of God, Israel, begins with a yud. The City of God, Jerusalem, begins with the yud. And the name Jesus, in Hebrew, begins, as well, with a yud."
"And what does it all mean?"
"The greatest of words begin with the smallest of letters. In the same way, the greatest works of God begin with the smallest of strokes. Life itself begins on a scale so small, it can't even be seen. It's the secret of the yud."
"And how does one apply it?"
"We are called to the new and to change. But by nature we avoid both newness and change. So how do you change? How do you go from a life of failure to a life of victory? It's an overwhelming prospect. How do you do it? With the yud. You start by taking the yud of steps, the smallest of steps but toward the greatest of changes. You don't start out with a great victory, but you take the yud, one small action, one little step toward the great victory. You take that one step, the yud of courage, that iota of change, the smallest stroke of new beginnings, the yud of life you're called to live. You begin the greatest of things with the smallest of strokes. You begin by applying the secret of the yud." The Mission: Today, take the smallest of actions, but in a new direction, the first step toward the life of victory you're called to live - the yud of a new journey.

The Treehouse: Sketches of the Millennial Kingdom If this is your first newsletter, you've jumped into the last of a four-part series that began with The Gift Horse, Watch the Smoke, and Wetter than Water. Click on the links to start at the beginning. In last week's teaching, we concluded with these mysterious statements concerning the striking of the Rock Messiah in the wilderness: ·     “Tell Aaron and his sons to be careful with the holy gifts of the sons of Israel, which they dedicate to Me, so as not to profane My holy name; I am the LORD.” (Le 22:2) ·     “'...for in the wilderness of Zin, during the strife of the congregation, you rebelled against My command to treat Me as holy before their eyes at the water.' These are the waters of Meribah of Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.” (Nu 27:14) The water, the text says, “came forth abundantly, and the congregation and their beasts drank.” (Nu 20:11) The English translation of “abundantly” is from the Hebrew rav [rabim H7227] which has several meanings. Among its first uses in Scripture, we have context of a quarrel, which emphasizes that it was not only the people who were quarreling, but the water, too. Messiah had a beef with the situation, and he demonstrated it with how he yielded the waters: ·     Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (Ge 6:5) ·     In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened. (Ge 7:11) ·     And the land could not sustain them while dwelling together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to remain together. (Ge 13:6) The first two examples above are of The Holy One's quarrel with mankind, and the third is of the quarrel between the shepherds of Avraham and Lot. If Messiah's reaction to being struck by Moses and Aaron was quarrelsome water, it sounds as if it wasn't a gently flowing stream! It was a real gusher. From the sentence imposed on Moses and Aaron, the implication is that the quarrel was with their actions in striking instead of speaking. Striking instead of teaching holiness. But what was the reason Messiah withheld water after Miriam's death? Was he, too, joining with them in mourning? Was he giving the royal priesthood an opportunity to rise to a more intimate level with him? For them to understand that the Word in their mouths also had power to restore the plants, heal, and sanctify in the Bridegroom's Name? Perhaps Messiah wanted the Israelites to speak to him about restoring their holy gifts by the stream, yet they were conditioned to look to their leadership. The text says only that “the people drank.” That wasn't their first concern, remember? It was the miraculous plants and the purifying stream of water for a royal priesthood. They mentioned drinking water for themselves and their beasts only last. The natural earthly realm was literally the least of their worries. Let's tie this in with the River of Life in the millennium: ·     “In that day the Branch of the LORD will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth will be the pride and the adornment of the survivors of Israel.” (Is 4:5) The Branch of YHVH is Messiah Yeshua, the Rock in the wilderness. Because of the Branch and miraculous water, miraculous Edenic plants grew on the banks of the stream: orchards, spices, and vineyards on a heavenly timetable, not earthly. If not overnight, then within a month of the camp's settlement. Israel is prophetic of the world to come. She is uniting realms that have been disconnected since the fall from the Garden. In the wilderness, they came very close to Eden as demonstrated by the manna, ever-wear garments and sandals,

Parsha "Yitro" (Exodus chapters 18 through 21) is named for the man who is Moses' father-in-law, because he makes an appearance in the very first part of the story. But the portion is most noted because it includes the first giving of the 'Ten Debarim' (actually 'words,' or even Ten Sayings) - most usually rendered in English as the Ten Commandments. The Erev Shabbat Reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/SSM-2-14-25-Yitro-teaching-podcast-x.mp3 The description surrounding the fact that the mixed multitude of Israel, according to the literal Hebrew, actually "SAW" the thunderings, and the other aspects of the interaction were so overwhelming that they then told Moses, 'YOU speak to us,' from here on out, because they were afraid that if they heard directly from YHVH again, it would kill them, is a graphic indication that THIS interaction with the Creator of the Universe was different than anything that had ever happened before. And it's something that Mark Call has "waxed a bit nerdy" about before, suggesting that it was some type of "high bandwidth" download that probably seemed overwhelming to them. And, superficially at least, but maybe even to a deeper extent given the level of incredible Evil now being exposed, we may be seeing a similar level of "information overload" today. But the similarities don't stop there. Yitro: They heard - er, saw - but didn't LISTEN! https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/WT-CooH-2-15-25-Yitro-They-heard-no-SAW-but-did-NOT-Listen-podcast-xxx.mp3

EVERYBODY has taught it wrong! The way that it is currently taught by virtually, EVERYBODY, is the way of the pharisees, and NOT the way that YHVH has commanded it. Let's set that straight, shall we? Because if you get this wrong, all that follow in the first half, will be incorrect, too!

Parsha "B'shalach" (Exodus 13:17 - 17:16) begins with what might be the most famous miracle in the Bible, the "parting of the Red Sea" [more likely the 'Sea of Reeds'] and the related destruction of Pharaoh, and all his army and chariots. The very first verse of the parsha, as Mark Call notes in the reading, should perhaps "leap off the page" today as a warning: YHVH took the 'mixed multitude' via the Long Way Home to the Promised Land, rather than the shorter coastal route, "lest the people regret," when they see war, and decide to return right back into bondage. Could that ring true today? The Erev Shabbat Reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/SSM-2-7-25-Bshalach-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 The question has been asked. But there is something fundamental about human nature that is outlined here. Rather than being grateful for having been freed "by a Mighty Hand," from bondage, and happy to be en route to a Promised Land, why instead do people whine, and want to go back into slavery? In that context it is interesting that there is so much emphasis in this story on "testing" by YHVH. They see thirst in the wilderness. And have cause for concern when He gives them 'bread from heaven' - before it gets a name. The Sabbath is introduced. (Or - is it RE-introduced?) But Yah has good reason to ask, "How long will you refuse to keep My commandments and My Instruction?" B'shalach: Grateful? Or Whining? The Testing Is Yet to Come https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/WT-CooH-2-8-25-Bshalach-The-Testing-to-Come-Grateful-or-Whining-podcast-xx.mp3 The combined two-part teaching will be up later; HNR has server problems that prevented it from uploading.

This week the Torah teachers, Mark Call, Ray Harrison, and Mark Pitrone, begin the study of the Book of the prophet Hosea. And it starts with an usual direction from YHVH to the prophet, to "take a wife of harlotry," or marry a whore, in order to make what turns out to be a very dramatic point. And a lesson that is just as central to the state of a not-so-different form of 'whoring' today.

The second Torah portion reading from the Book of Exodus this week is in some respects THE beginning of the Exodus itself, in that it describes the first set(s) of the 'Ten Plagues of Egypt." 'Vaera' (Exodus 6:4 through chapter 9), beings, however, with an explanation of His Name, YHVH. "And I appeared," ('vaera') He says, to Abraham, and to Yitzak, and to Yakov, "as El Shaddai, but by My Name YHVH I did not," at not in the way that He is about to, "make Myself known to them. And that is the essence of what He is about to do! The Erev Shabbat reading, as usual, covers the story itself, but also starts to lay out the incredible significance of just what that means: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/SSM-1-24-25-Vaera-teaching-podcast-xxx.mp3 The Sabbath Day midrash takes a deeper look at a number of key elements that are laid out in this parsha, from the emphasis on His Name YHVH, and that He would then SHOW what that means, so that all of us would know, to the patterns and projections associated with the plagues themselves. They were not only all judgments against various fake Egyptian 'gods,' but also, Mark contends, a set of 'open brackets,' or one half of a set of bookends, which we will eventually see closed by the prophesied second, or "Greater Exodus." And there are certainly "candidates" for those in play today. Vaera: What's it Gonna TAKE?" https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/WT-CooH-1-25-25-Vaera-Whats-It-Gonna-TAKE-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part teaching is here:

It was by the second day that I realized that there would be no set time for the teacher's coming. He came in the afternoon.
"Do you know the Name of God?" asked the teacher.
"I don't know that I do."
"It's made up of four Hebrew letters, the yud, the heh, the vav, and the heh: YHVH. It's the most sacred of names, so sacred some refuse to say it. And yet you say it all the time."
"The sacred Name of God?" I replied. "How could I when I never knew it?"
"When you speak of yourself, you say the Name."
"I don't understand."
"When you feel happy, you say, 'I am happy.' And when you're not, you say 'I am sad.' When you tell others who you are, you say, 'I am' followed by your name.
"YHVH means 'I Am.' It's the Name of the Eternal, the Name of God. His Name is I Am.
"Then we all say His Name."
"Yes. And you have always said it. It is woven into the fabric of existence that when you speak of yourself, you must say His Name."
"Why is that?"
"It's because your existence comes from His existence. He is the I Am of all existence ... the I Am of all I ams. Your I am only exists because of His I Am. And as you exist from Him, so it is only from Him that you can find the reason and purpose of your existence. Therefore, when you say your name, you must always speak His Name. And you must always speak His Name first."
"Because..."
"Because His existence is first and your existence flows forth from His. That's the flow of existence. Therefore, you must put Him first and then let everything flow from that. Let everything begin with Him and flow forth from Him. That's the secret of life. To not only live for Him, but to live your life from Him, to live from His living, to move from His moving, to act from His actions, to feel from His heart, to be from His being, and to become who you are from who He is ... I am." The Mission: Today, learn the secret of living each moment from His life, doing from His doing, loving from His love, and being from His being.

A brief description of four main beliefs of Biblical Unitarians. 1. God Is One, the Father. ·         Deuteronomy 6:4 “YHVH our God, YHVH is one”. Mark 12:32 “He (not they) is one.” ·         John 17:3 “Father…this is eternal life, to know you, the only true God…” ·         1 Corinthians 8:6 “As for us, there is one God, the Father…”. 2. Jesus Is the Messiah, the Son of the Living God 3. The Holy Spirit Is the Spirit of God We believe in God (the Father), in Jesus the human Son of God, and in the spirit of God.  A “triad”, not a “Trinity”. A Trinity wrongly insists the three all must be one “being”, a “three-person-god”.   4. Authority of Scripture                 The Bible, not men's speculations or tradition, is the ultimate authority for belief and practice.   Examples of Resources (there are many more: The Bible

The trying of our faith is difficult and uncomfortable. The exemplars of our faith used the trials in the days of of light (or plenty) to build their confidence in YHVH and their relationship to him. There is a striving to gain the skills needed to enter the narrow path. We call it exercise in the physical realm. It is also true in the spiritual realm. The small experiences build our confidence in the love and care of our Father; so when the dark times come we are not afraid. We remember. We hope. We endure. "My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing." James 1***103: The Parable Of The Ten VirginsMatthew 25:1-13JESUS TOLD another parable, saying: “Then shall the kingdom of Heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them; but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, ‘Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.'Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, ‘Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out.' But the wise answered, saying, ‘Not so, lest there be not enough for us and you; but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.' And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to marriage, and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.' But he answered and said, ‘Verily I say unto you, “I know you not.”'Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.”

This week's parsha, Vayetze (Genesis/Bereshiet 25:19-32:3) follows the story of Yakov/Jacob after he leaves home and heads to the place of his mother Rivka/Rebeccah's family. And like so many things concerning the Patriarchs, it is not only maximally Politically NOT-Correct, but practically a litmus test for how far so much of the sun-god-day church has departed from the lessons of Scripture. The Erev Shabbat reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/SSM-12-6-24-Vayetze-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 There is a whole lot that much of 'xtianity' really doesn't like about this one. And for the same reasons, some of the context may even seem confusing to 'modern sensitivities.' Why, for example, is the man who lied to his father to "usurp" his elder brother Esau's blessing, and birthright, also held up as an icon of "emet," the Hebrew word for 'truth'? And why would the Creator of the Universe and Author of Scripture choose to use a man with four wives to bring forth His people? Is it possible that there's something in this story that 'the Church' would prefer to overlook, or outright hide? This story is not merely NOT-PC. It's a glaring example of what so pervades the world that so hates His Word today: Vayetze: Real vs Fake" Means! https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/WT-CooH-12-7-24-Vayetze-Fake-vs-real-the-NOT-PC-Salvation-of-YHVH-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part teaching is here:

The restoration of the breach between Adam and YHVH required a willing and innocent sacrifice to restore communication and relationship. This bridge (atonement) was built by the faith and obedience of Jesus Christ (our example). Jesus said, "I always obey the Father." The success of Jesus allowed the presence of God to be moved from Herod's stone temple to the hearts of obedient men. This was an expected result of the coming Messiah – no longer would the sacrifices and temple services be required. Messiah, our High Priest, reigns in us!***Chapter 100: Jesus Once More Speaks Of His Death And ResurrectionJohn 12:20-50CERTAIN GREEKS had had arrived at Jerusalem for the feast days. They went to Phillip of Bethsaida in Galilee, saying: “Sir, we would see Jesus.” Phillip told Andrew of the request and both Phillip and Andrew went to Jesus with the message. Jesus replied: “The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you, ‘Except a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone.'But if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be. If any man serve me, him will my Father honor. Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour; but for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name.” Then a voice from Heaven was heard, saying: “I HAVE BOTH GLORIFIED IT, AND WILL GLORIFY IT AGAIN.” Some of the people who heard the voice said it thundered. Others said: “An angel spake to him.” Jesus answered, saying: “This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. Now is the judgment of this world. Now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” Thus Jesus signified how he was to die. The people asked him: “We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth forever. And how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up?' Who is this Son of man?” Jesus replied to the people: “Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you; for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth. While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light.” When he finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from the multitude. Even though he had done so many miracles before their very eyes, still they did not believe in him. Thus was the prophecy of Isaiah fulfilled, that which said: “Lord, who hath believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? He hath blinded their eyes and hardened their...

Turning Tables Here in Egyptalon, it's a language issue. The Hebrew language. One day, the tables will turn: “For at that time I will change the speech of the peoples to a pure speech, that all of them may call upon the name of the LORD and serve him with one accord.” (Zephaniah 3:9) This echoes the three principles of the fall moedim, which are a step of sorting the sealed righteous from the intermediates from the wicked. Prayer to purify, repentance to seal, charity to the suffering to prove the heart change and willingness to serve the Kingdom. The first principle, prayer, is a practice of purifying the speech, measuring one's own prayer against the standard of the Word. Those sealed with the Name of YHVH are one as He is One. They do not bear the many names of individual idols, but they are a unified, accurate reflection of His image as a nation apart. In a sense, because we tend to impose our face over the face of Elohim (“no other gods in front of me”), the world sees a distorted representation of His Name in us, especially when we assemble all our individual gods that we sometimes choose to place before obedience to YHVH. Too often, we are not a representation of Him, but of our mixed obedience and unreliable loyalty to His Oneness. In that sense, it is also a hearing issue: “Hear, O Israel, YHVH our Elohim, YHVH is One.” At the end of days, “The LORD shall be King over all the world, on that day the LORD will be One and His Name one.” (Ze 14:9) There will be no misrepresentation of the Holy Name in that day. Because the names, or reputations of people will reflect the holiness of the Word, His true reputation will be known by all the living. The blasphemous names of the Great Harlot in Revelation may be a reference to traditional thought about how even in slavery in Egypt, Israel maintained a vital connection to the Promise of the Fathers: their names in exile. The Israelites' Hebrew names, uncorrupted with Egyptian names, set them apart, even the tribes of Joseph, Ephraim and Menashe. They retained a “pure speech,” Hebrew, even though many among them descended into idolatry.  They were still a nation apart because of their literal names, but a name is also reputation. Their sexual purity retained the identity of the nation through the generations. Only when the greater part of the nation maintained sexual morality could they retain their identity with their family, clan, tribe, and nation. These two identifiers, speech and sexual morality, set them apart in Egypt. James, who addresses the “twelve tribes scattered abroad” places emphasis on Godly speech in order to keep one's Bridal garments unstained, the Bridal Bridle: “If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless. Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.” (Ja 1:25-27) James emphasizes three aspects of the bridal garments as the three pillars of the fall moedim: Controlling the tongue by keeping the waters pure, also a prayer practice Exercising practical holiness by alleviating the suffering of those in distress, charity Sealing the fountain with repentance, which aids #1 by not allowing new pollutants to fall in. See how great a forest is set aflame by such a small fire! And the tongue is a fire, the very world of iniquity; the tongue is set among our members as that which defiles the entire body, and sets on fire the course of our life, and is set on fire by hell. For every species of beasts and birds, of reptiles and creatures of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by the human race. But no one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men,

Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a two-part look at this week's parsha, Toldot (Genesis/Bereshiet 25:19-28:9) which is the primary description in the Bible of the life of Yitzak/Isaac, and includes the stories of his twin sons, Esau and Yakov. The Erev Shabbat reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/SSM-11-29-24-Toldot-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 The Sabbath Day midrash is focused on what was originally called a "struggle" in the womb between the two twin brothers. But the Hebrew word used (ratzatz), and Rivkah's reaction, suggest it was FAR more intense than a mere struggle. And it continues, in every way. Because so does the reason that Esau is "hated" by YHVH. Toldot: Poor Esau? Or the 'Battle Has Never Ended?' https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/CooH-11-29-24-Toldot-Poor-Esau-the-Continuing-Struggle-er-RAGE-podcast-xx.mp3 The combined two-part teaching is here:

Shalom Aleikhem, my dear listeners, believer and nonbeliver alike! Welcome back to another blog post of #FindingHyerGround - Messianic Jewish Perspectives on Modern Day Events - a Spotify for Podcasters publication now streaming on all major platforms and bringing the Good News of Salvation through Messiah Yeshua to 28 countries including Uzbekistan

Pastor Mark continues his series about the importance of keeping YHVH's appointed times and how it shines a bright light to the world.

En este programa hablamos de la visita que recibe Abraham y las distintas ideas quer se tenia en el mundo del segundo templo con respecto a esta vista.

Wee the People. Did you have to memorize the preamble to the Constitution in school? "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution...” I never had a problem memorizing things for school. It was getting up in front of people that was terrifying. Eighth grade was a veritable shark tank of hormones, cliques, and mean girls and guys. A public mistake likely meant a nickname you didn't want. Not much tranquility among “we the people” in junior high. We the people. The politicians did get a few things right back then. A sense of common identity, community, mutual respect, and all those things that define a people group were at the top of their agenda. Not a bad start for a government defining and agreeing on what “constitutes” a nation. But the signers of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution didn't want a king, even a good one. Israel in the wilderness was a miracle, a people group preserved in Egypt over hundreds of years without losing their identity. They had a king, a pharaoh, yet they kept their own language. They kept their tribal identity. These things became even more defined in the wilderness when they received their covenant in Hebrew, affirming their collective mission. Each tribe's blessings were clarified, territory defined in the encampment, leaders chosen and instructed. A central place of worship nestled in their center, reminding them that they should provide for the common defense of the Ark, maintain their boundaries in tranquility, and look to the welfare of their families so that their posterity would be able to enter and inhabit the Land of Promise. Their King was YHVH, Who betrothed them to Himself at Mount Sinai. Everyone signed on with “We will do, and we will hear.” Unlike the Tower of Bavel, where human beings united to build a name for themselves, Israel united to build the Name of the Holy One of Israel. There is ultimate power in unity, which is reflected in our proclamation of the greatest commandment: “Hear O Israel, the LORD your God, the LORD is One.” What happens, though, when our “we” becomes my “I”? Oh, my. The stutter-steps in the wilderness occurred when the I's developed an independent agenda or envied others. There were rebellions against the authority of Moses and Aaron, rebellions against the mitzvot, even passive-aggressive disobedience. In the wilderness, that means just not showing up when you know you should. Each problem emerged when “I” outweighed “we the people.” Even rebel groups were not truly a “we.” They had different agendas, so they were bound as “we” only in dissatisfaction, which would not be enough to hold them together had they been successful, such as Korach and the Reuvenites. Truth is, they were a collection of “I's”. The secret to a successful “we”, as in “We will do, and we will hear,” or “We the people,” is that we have to become wee people. Smaller than our egos tell us we should or ought to be. Or, in some cases, bigger than our fears will allow us to be. In that case, doing more is actually an act of humility. If we obey the fear, we will not be fruitful in the congregation. We have to make the fear smaller and our Divine spiritual calling greater. Great faith means wee fear. WE are not alone as we battle our egos or our fears: “Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us...” (He 12:1) The clouds surrounded the Israelites in the wilderness. Within the cloud were many witnesses to the exodus from Egypt, the miracles along the way,

We began the reading of Parsha Noach last week, both with the story of his genealogy, the nature of the world at that time, and the Flood itself. But that parsha also includes at least one other famous story, and one which also bears more relevance today that we might like to admit. The Erev Shabbat reading of the parsha follows the Flood, in chapters ten 12 of Bereshiet/Genesis, and includes the story of Nimrod, and the Tower of Babel: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/SSM-10-18-24-Noach-pt-2-Babylon-n-Nimrod-teaching-podcast-x.mp3 The Sabbath Day midrash picks up the theme of Nimrod, Babel, and what it was about that tower that was so unique to YHVH that it merited the response He gave it. And it seems to have lot to do with what Bebylon became, and evidently still represents: a system that is antagonistic to His. There are parallels, anti-parallels, but this time the question concerns what might follow the parallels after that Flood, "as it was in the days of Noach..." The issue this time is Babylon, and what constitutes the 'Greater Babylon Metro Area.'

IF YOU'RE watching or listening to this program, you probably already know that. But a dangerous teaching is spreading through social media that claims Yahweh is not the Father, but the evil one. We address the claims of this teaching, which derives from the apparent contradiction between the behavior of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the Old Testament and Jesus in the New Testament. It's understandable; without a divine council worldview, God can appear violent, capricious, even bloodthirsty. Building on that false characterization, this new doctrine—which is actually one the early church had to contend with for about 300 years beginning in the middle of the 2nd century AD—separates Jesus from Yahweh, making Him a secondary deity, an evil entity who deceived the patriarchs and prophets from Abraham to Malachi. However, Jesus identified Yahweh as his Father by calling the Temple, the temple of Yahweh, “my Father's house” (John 2:16); and then identified himself as the Father. Yahweh (John 8:58, 10:30, 14:9). The Jews who heard Jesus make these claims understood his meaning;  they twice picked up rocks to stone him for blasphemy. The notion that Yahweh is not the Father, but Jesus' evil brother Satan, is a deception that only draws in those who haven't read the Bible in depth or reject the parts of it they don't like. The danger is that it presents a false justification to vilify Jews, who, in this false belief system, have been worshiping Satan since the time of the patriarchs. 

We have returned from India - Thank you all for your prayers. While journeying, we were taught many lessons on waiting for our Heavenly Father to work His plan. That brought me to Psalm 25, where David encourages us in our waiting to not give up or think that YHVH is not in control. When things don't seem to be working out, the council is to WAIT. He promises to never leave us or forsake us. He orders our steps, and nothing is occurring by accident. The people of India wanted us to relay to you their profound gratitude for supporting the building project. The picture on this video shows the packed church and many more were outside listening on the speakers. 500 people showed up for the dedication celebration. Thank you all! Blessings.

This is a special week, beginning what will almost certainly be a "special" month, even if it ends up spectacularly Evil. There have already been two massive, X-class, Earth-directed CMEs this week, arriving soon, and that may be just a harbinger of the fireworks intended to come. Man-made or not. It's also even a time when, calendar differences notwithstanding, most who read "Scripture-as-Written," will seek to celebrate, or 'remember' the Fall Feasts of YHVH. And, likewise, the birth of our Messiah - even if 'the world' doesn't get it. All of which means: "It's OCTOBER -- Surprise!!!" So pay attention. And "be not deceived."
