The study of the Bible in its historical context - with a focus on the archaeology, history, geography, customs , culture, and even the languages of the ancient Middle East. WE ask what did they understand THEN - the original intent of the Lord - so that we can expand and enrich our understanding NOW and thus become true disciples of Adonai Yeshua as in John 8:31-32.

LEVITICUS – INTRODUCTION – PART 1 I mentioned a podcast that relates to the phrase in Luke’s gospel that Jesus was laid in a manger. Did God inspire Luke to use this word? Of course the Lord did – the Bible is God’s inspired word. What is a manger? What is it used for? It is not a word used today. Is God using it to shows us some spiritual meaning that we missed since we do not understand the…
This is part 2 of the Lord's Prayer series as we focus on the phrase, "hallowed be Your name." In this episode we turn to the Ten Commandments and to commandment #3 (commandment 2 if you are a Catholic) or "You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain." How is this related to us today? If we reconnect to the Hebrew…
When was the last time you hallowed? Is it allowed in your church? Where you work? Did you learn how to hallow in Sunday school? Why aren't more 21st century Christians hallowing? But, perhaps they are! In the 2nd Temple Period, the first century A.D. or Jesus' day, Jesus' talmideem, Hebrew for disciples, knew exactly how to hallow! Jesus' fellow rabbis helped all know how to hallow the name of…
We continue with the words of the Lord's Prayer, HaTehfeelah Adonai. Our focus is now on the words, "...who is in heaven." This begs the question where does God live? Where is His abode, where does He dwell 24/7? Isn't heaven the sky above and space with the moon and sun and planets and galaxies? If so does God live out there behind a nebula or a galaxy hidden from our eyes? Or, does the English…
Is the Bible credible? Can we trust it? Is the Exodus more than a story? In lesson 2 we begin an amazing journey to show the veracity, the trustworthiness, of the book of Exodus. As we continue in Exodus chapter one we will see that we are dealing with historic events – things that actually happened. We will begin to verify the exact year when Moses led the Hebrews out of Egypt. It’s all related…
In lesson 2 we continue to lay the foundation for this in depth study of the first five books of the Bible, commonly referred to as the TORAH (which does NOT mean LAW but TEACHING). In this lesson we ask if there are no dinosaurs in the Bible (and there is NO mention of them in the Bible in Hebrew) then does that help us grasp what the Torah is and is not? Here's a link to a Jewish scholar and his…
In this lesson we start our study of the exact words of the Lord's prayer. This lesson will focus on the first two words, "Our Father." Is Jesus teaching something new? Is Jesus bringing in a new idea? Were the disciples of Jesus amazed at the start of the prayer when they heard the words, "Our Father?" Again, we return to 24-30 A.D. - the time when Jesus was here as a rabbi, as a Torah teacher.…
In this 2nd lesson on the Lord's prayer we will focus on Jesus' specific guidelines He taught when we pray. 1st, go into your inner room. Next, do not use meaningless repetition like the pagan Gentiles. Are these instructions unique? Is Jesus teaching us something that is different than praying as a religious Jewish person in His day? Are these guidelines uniquely Christian? NOPE. Jesus is…
This is a NEW podcast series. We will focus on the Lord's Prayer or what we sometimes call, "The Our Father." There are 100's of excellent books from excellent scholars on this prayer. What we will do is simply look at this prayer in its historical context. And, God willing, this perspective will only add to the understanding we have of this prayer and prayer in general. In this first session we…
It is amazing how God uses the major event in Judaism, the Exodus, to teach us what His ultimate redemption of all men and women will be like. The Exodus stands alone as a major event in human history. It is amazing that God chose one people to be His chosen people so that the world would come to know Him, the God of Abraham, the one God, the only God through Israel. He didn't pick Israel because…
This is the 1st lesson in the Torah series for Christians on Genesis. This lesson provides the main goals of this unique Bible study. The emphasis is on the Bible in its historical context; it focuses on archaeology, geography, history, and the ancient culture and customs and even the languages of the Middle East. Rev. Ferret - who is this guy? What's his background? Why should I listen to him?…
In John 5:39 Jesus teaches that SCRIPTURE testifies of Himself. It is easy to show He said this betwem 24-30 A.D. when all they had was the Hebrew Scriptures, the Old Testament, Jesus' Bible. Again and again in the series "The Gospel According to Moses" we have seen how key veerses of Genesis and Exodus do testify of Jesus, the coming Messiah. Exodus chapter 40 is no exception. It is so awesome…
