Study the Bible with Arthur Bailey

Apostle John was a disciple of Yeshua, and he was an eyewitness to the things that occurred with Yeshua.  Apostle John also writes about some of the things that took place with John the Immerser/Baptist.  John the Immerser was ministering to people who had knowledge of the coming Messiah.  Last week we talked about The Messiah, Elijah, and that Prophet.    John the Immerser makes a statement in th...

Loaded down with as much food as they could carry, the sons of Israel departed from Egypt, headed back to the land of Canaan, only to be apprehended for theft by the servant of Joseph. The stage has been set as the plan of Joseph comes into full view. The brothers are gripped with fear not knowing what is about to happen. Joseph then reveals himself to his brothers as savior, father, ruler, and lo...

In this portion of the Teaching, the Apostle John presents the testimony of John the Baptist.  John the Baptist speaks of Messiah, in the flesh, revealing the Almighty through Himself.    John the Baptist is calling the Israelites to repentance because the Torah is not being taught by the religious leaders.  They're teaching the traditions of the Elders that had been passed down from generati...

After a successful second journey to Egypt, with Benjamin in tow, to secure grain for their father and families to keep them from perishing, the sons of Israel are about to face their greatest challenge. Benjamin’s role in YeHoVaH’s plan to bring salvation to the tribes of Israel and begin the process of developing Israel as a nation according to a prophetic promise is almost complete.  Join Arthu...

John sends a clear message in his opening remark, “ In the Beginning, Yeshua was There.”    In this teaching, we will explore John's understanding and perception of who Messiah was and is. He establishes the Oneness of YeHoVaH and the deity of Messiah in the same statement.  Yeshua was with YeHoVaH from the very beginning and that nothing was made that Yeshua did not make.   John explains tha...

After consuming the grain, they had received from Egypt, the sons of Israel must return to Egypt for more grain to keep from perishing. Israel’s sons convince him to let Benjamin go with them or they would not return to Egypt.  In this episode, Arthur explains how Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, becomes a critical piece of the puzzle of YeHoVaH’s plan to bring salvation to the tribes of Israel and beg...

The opening statement of John’s Gospel establishes the oneness of YeHoVaH and the deity of Messiah in the same statement.  In addition to discussing these facts, we will answer four questions. 1. Who wrote The Gospel of John?  2. When was The Gospel of John written?  3. To Whom was The Gospel of John written?  4. Why was The Gospel of John written?

During the famine of Israel’s days, YeHoVaH prepares the way for the preservation of the Children of Israel by giving Joseph a series of dreams.  YeHoVaH then sends Joseph to Egypt, ahead of his brothers, setting the stage for the fulfillment of Joseph’s dream of reigning over and having dominion over his brothers as The Lord of the Land.  Don’t miss any of the tense and emotion-filled moments unv...

The sins of the world made it impossible for there to be righteous fellowship between YeHoVaH and His creation. Redemption was about much more than simply saving man from his sins. Mankind had lost its way with no hope and no way to return to YeHoVaH in righteousness and fellowship with the Creator. YeHoVaH’s plan to redeem man and His creation providing a pathway back to Him had been put in play...

Abraham, the first person referred to as a Hebrew in Scripture, was given the promise to become the father of many nations. Abraham never became a nation. However, through Abraham’s son Isaac, and then Isaac’s son Jacob (whose name was changed to Israel by YeHoVaH), the promise given to Abraham takes shape. Long before the sons of Israel became the Hebrew Nation of Israel, a Hebrew ruled the natio...

YeHoVaH demonstrated His Mighty Power in Yeshua’s life from the announcement of His birth, His early life in Egypt and Nazareth, protecting Him throughout His earthly Ministry, to the epic showdown between the Savior on the cross and satan which was on full display for the whole world to see. The worldly powers of King Herod, Pontius Pilate, the High Priest, the Sanhedrin, the religious leaders, n...

 Egypt has played a pivotal role in the lives of the Hebrew people since the days of Abraham, the Hebrew. Two years after Joseph, the Hebrew, is given the interpretation of the Baker and the Butler’s dreams, YeHoVaH sets the stage for fulfilling the dreams He had given to Joseph as a young boy in his father’s house.    Tune in, as Arthur examines the ways of the Master, as He orchestrates the even...

The epic showdown between the Savior and satan that began at the birth of Yeshua comes into clearer focus in the closing Chapters of Matthew. When Yeshua was a toddler, satan used King Herod, who committed mass murder, hoping to have Yeshua murdered. This caused His parents to flee to Egypt for His protection.  At the beginning of Yeshua’s earthly Ministry, He was led into the wilderness by the Ho...

Joseph’s saga and journey continued in prison, as the favor of the Most High elevated him above all of the prisoners.  Although Joseph could not see the full plan of his being unjustly imprisoned, it is evident to him that YeHoVaH was with him from the moment he was given dreams, and the trouble those dreams caused him.    Arthur explores how Joseph’s path and steps were ordered by YeHoVaH, as ano...

Yeshua’s illegitimate facade of a trial, at the hands of the religious leaders, concluded with a guilty verdict. The Lamb of God, who came to take away the sins of the world, had been convicted of crimes He did not commit and was condemned to death for blasphemy. The flagrant display of lawlessness, abuse of authority, and inhumane treatment against the Messiah by YeHoVaH’s representatives, their...

After Joseph was sold by his brothers into slavery, Joseph is sold by some descendants of Abraham to a high-ranking official in Egypt.  In this Podcast, Arthur focuses on the various incidents that lead to Joseph’s trouble and investigates the Favor that continuously manifests in Joseph’s life. Arthur also explores the cause of Joseph’s favor and shows us how to obtain the kind of favor Joseph had...

In the teaching, The Prophet and The Word on Trial, we witnessed the flagrant display of lawlessness, abuse of authority, and inhumane treatment against the Lamb of God who came to take away the sins of the world. All of the abuse levied toward Yeshua during an illegitimate facade of a trial was at the hands of the religious leaders who were supposed to be YeHoVaH’s representatives, their armed gu...

In this Podcast, Arthur focuses on Israel’s son Judah, his marriage to a Canaanite woman, and the promise Judah made to his daughter-in-law that would later be recognized in the Torah given by YeHoVaH in Deuteronomy 25:5-10.  Ultimately, Judah does not keep his promise and his daughter-in-law concocts a death-defying plan that exposes Judah’s heart using his own pledge to entrap him and leading to...

Yeshua and His disciples had crossed over the Kidron Valley into the Garden of Gethsemane after they had finished all the events that occurred at the Last Supper. Yeshua was deeply troubled about the events that were about to unfold and sought a quiet place in the Garden where He would agonize in prayer for three solid hours.    It was while they were in the Garden of Gethsemane, and after He had...

The plan concocted by the sons of Israel was to kill Joseph and then lie to their father.  On the surface, it seems all of the brothers were in on the plan.  However, if we listen to the rest of the story, we find they were not all on the same page.  Joseph is sold to a caravan of traders, Ishmaelites and Midianites, on their way to Egypt.  The Ishmaelite's were descendants of Abraham and Hag...

Last week in Part 2 of The Last Supper and Passover, we investigated further the conversation, dialogue, and language of the Gospel narrative of Matthew and compared statements made in the Gospel narrative of John to help determine and answer that very important question of whether the last supper Yeshua ate with His disciples was the Passover meal. We established a timeline of events that occurre...

This podcast looks at sibling rivalry as played out in the household of Israel.  Genesis 37:3-4 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colours.  And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.  In this passage Jacob/Israel make...

In Part 1 of The Last Supper and Passover, the question was asked if the Last Supper Yeshua ate with His disciples on the night He was betrayed, was the Passover meal commanded by the Torah or was it just that, Yeshua’s last supper with His disciples? We identified and addressed the confusion surrounding the event of Yeshua’s last supper with His disciples. As a result of some peoples’ confusion,...

This portion of Scripture implies that Esau and Israel lived in proximity to each other. As we studied last week, they were in communication with each other because they came together to bury their father, Isaac.  Many of the radical sects of the Black Hebrew Israelite groups identify Caucasians or White people as Edomites and much of what they have to say about Edomites is very derogatory and rac...

Was the Last Supper Yeshua ate with His disciples on the night He was betrayed, the Passover meal commanded by the Torah or was it just that, Yeshua’s Last Supper with His disciples? Many people today seem to be confused about this event. As a result of their confusion, they argue, debate, and perpetuate their confusions causing babes in the faith to be confused, all because of a verse here or the...
