Looking at the counting the omer as a spiritual mirror for our soul. We all have some form of bondage that is holding us back. #counttheomer

In this study, I go into the meaning of the blood applied to the door at Passover and the threshold covenant. #pesach #passover #thresholdcovenant

Torah: Leviticus 6:8-8:36Haftorah: Jeremiah 7:21-28; Jeremiah 9:22-23Shabbat Hagadol Haftorah: Malachi 3:4-24.#tzav #torahstudy #priesthood This week’s parsha is called Tzav, which means to command or give an order. This portion goes over the korbanot and the consecration of the priesthood. Captain of Temple https://youtu.be/xzP2yjfspeA?si=-ogf6IR1I7yid1rA Prayer Vayakhel Pekudei https://youtu.be/...

This week’s portion contains the laws for the sacrifices/korbanot. This part of the Torah is one that is often misunderstood and probably the least studied. We are diving into whether the offerings and the Temple are still relevant for believers in Yeshua. #Vayikra #templestudy #sacrifices #Yeshua• Do we need a third temple and what about Yeshua?• Do you think that we are the temple and there’s no...

Torah: Ex 35:1-40:38Haftorah: Ezek 45:16-46:18#torahstudy #prayer This parsha is a double portion- Vayakhel and Pekudei. As we look at these two parshot, we see that this seems like a repetition of the commands to build the mishkan. Here is actually when the work is taking place. We see the actual building and setting up of the mishkan. This week, I really want to diverge from the reading as we ha...

Exodus/ Shemot 30:11 - 34:35 #torahstudy #biblestudy Parsha Ki Tisa describes how Yisrael contributes a half shekel for the census, receives final instructions for the Mishkan, and is reminded that Shabbat is the eternal sign of their covenant, but while Moshe is on Sinai the people panic and create the Golden Calf. Moshe shatters the tablets, intercedes for Yisrael, and pleads for God’s continued...

Ex 27:20-30:10#torahstudy #biblestudy #tetzavehThis week’s parsha is called tetzaveh which means and you shall command. It begins with a shift from the construction of the Mishkan to the people who will serve within it, commanding the Yisraelites to bring pure olive oil for the ner tamid, the eternal flame, and appointing Aharon and his sons as priests. The parsha details the priestly garments—the...

Torah: Exodus 25:1 to 27:19Haftorah: 2 Kgs. 12:1–17(11:21–12:16)#terumah #torahstudy #biblestudy The Mishkan as Micro Cosmos: Seven Speeches, Seven Days, One StoryOur parsha this week is called Terumah. It focuses on the commands for building the articles of the mishkan/ tabernacle. After the revelation at Sinai, God invites the people into a new phase of relationship—not just hearing God’s voice,...

Torah: Shemot/Ex 21: 1- 24:18Haftorah: Jer 34:8–22, 33:25–26 Mt. 26#torahstudy #mishpatim This week’s parsha is called Mishpatim which is often translated as ordinances or judgments .This week I go into the differences between minhag/customs and halacha/law and rulings. Many of these mishpatim/ rulings are counter-culture the Ancient World.

Torah:Ex 18: 1- 20:26Haftorah: Isa 1–7:6, 9:5–6(6–7)#yitro #torahstudy #sanhedrinThis parsha covers the giving of the 10 commands. I also look at Tu'B Shevat and how the word is received and guarded by the appointments of judges and how this goes to the formation of the Sanhedrin.

Torah: Exodus 13:17 to 17:16 Haftorah: Judges 5:1-31 #torahstudy #beshalach This parsha begins after the death of the first-born of Mitzrayim and the children of Yisrael left Mitzrayim. As the Yisraelites leave Mitzrayim/Egypt, they are chased by Pharaoh’s army. YHVH splits the Red Sea, allowing Yisrael to cross safely while the Egyptians drown. The people sing the Song at the Sea in gratitude. I...

Torah: Ex 10:1- 13:16Haftorah: Jer 46:13–28 #torahstudy #plaguesofegypt This week’s parsha is the continuation of the plagues. We see the last three plagues: locusts, darkness and death of the firstborn. https://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/5-aaron-s-rod

We will look at these plagues in detail as they were focused on demolishing the different gods and idols Mitzrayim/Egypt had. As part of the application of scripture, we will see how this symbolizes how we are to demolish all of the idols in our life and come out of Mitzrayim. Torah:Ex 6:2- 9:25 Haftorah: Ezek 28:25 – 29:21 #Va 'era #torahstudy #plaguesofegypt

ParshaShem ot opens with the Yisraelites multiplying in Egypt and becoming enslavedunder a new Pharaoh who fears their growth. Pharaoh orders the Hebrew midwivesto kill newborn boys, but they refuse, and a Levite woman hides her baby—Moshe—untilhe is discovered and adopted by Pharaoh’s daughter. As an adult, Moshe kills anEgyptian taskmaster and flees to Midian, where he marries Tzipporah. Whilete...

Torah: Genesis 47:28 to 50:261Haftorah: I Kings 2:1–12 #vayechi #torahstudy #blessings This week’s parsha is the very last parsha in Bereshit/Genesis. It is not long, but it covers a lot. This parsha is called va’yechi which means and he lived. Yet, it covers the death of two prominent individuals: Ya’akov and Yosef. It also covers Ya’akov giving a prophetic blessing over his sons. Mashiach on don...

Torah: Genesis 44:18 to 47:27Haftorah:Ezek 37:15–28 #torahstudy #vayigash #yoseph #yeshua This parsha involves the climatic moment of Yoseph revealing himself to his brothers. There are many pictures that are portrayed in this parsha. Some have double meanings. We will see many things revealed in this portion. There are many themes in this parsha: 1) something that was hidden being revealed 2) som...

Discovering the context of the meaning of binding and loosing. #bindingandloosing # spiritualwarfareI do believe in spiritual warfare as in Eph 6:12 , but see this verse about binding and loosing being misapplied.

#miketz #torahstudy This week’s parsha begins with Yoseph being called to interpret Pharaoh’s dream and his release from prison. Yoseph is raised up to a position of authority in Mitzrayim only second to Pharaoh. Famine begins to spread throughout the region which leads Yoseph’s brothers to come to Mitzrayim for grain.

#torahstudy #vayeshevTorah: Bereshit/Gen 37:1- 40:23Haftorah: Amos 2:6- 3:8This week’s parsha begins with a new focus on the story of Yoseph. He becomes the main character for the rest of Bereshit. It deals the story of coat of many colors and how Yoseph is taken down to Mitzrayim. We see the encounter with Potiphar’s wife and him being imprisoned. In addition, we have a side story of Yehudah and...

This is one of those parshot that I believe holds a prophetic picture and a foundational teaching to truly understanding scripture.   In this week’s parsha, we see Ya’akovreturning from exile.  After fleeing after Esav’s death threat, Ya’akov had no idea if Esav still hated him and wanted him dead.  We see Ya’akov making preparations and his wrestling with an angel.  Ya’akov’s name is changed.  Th...

Torah: Bereshit/Gen 28:10- 32:4 Haftorah: Hosea 11:7-12:14 This parsha is packed with lots of information and revelations. It begins with Ya’akov leaving and fleeing from Esav. Ya’akov is going to find a wife.  As Ya’akov leaves, he has a dream of aladder.  When Ya’akov arrives in Paddan Aram, he marries Leah and Rachel.  This parsha also covers the birth of 11 of the tribes of Yisrael. One theme...

This parsha covers the search for the bride of Yitzack.
