Akharit HaYamim / The Last Days / אַחֲרִית הַיָּמִים
The topic of “The Last Days” or the “End Times” is vast. There is no unity in belief, except that there are many today who do believe that Yeshua, The Son of God, is going to return ‘soon’. Most of us in the Messianic Peshitta Fellowship do as well. Doing a ‘summary’ of “Last Things”Continue reading “Akharit HaYamim / The Last Days / אַחֲרִית הַיָּמִים”
Get “The Word” Out!
The Word of God. “The Word of יהוה”. ” D’var יהוה “. I am not boasting in myself by promoting this website. I want people who need ‘something’ in their lives to latch on to what I latched on to 34 years ago. It saved my life; more than once. It is a book. But,Continue reading “Get “The Word” Out!”
A Summary, Not Obliteration
I just completed “Yokhanan Markos” for our Web Bible, “HaDavar“, “The Word”. It is traditionally called, of course, “The Gospel of Mark.” Most just forget that “Mark’s” Jewish name was Yokhanan, or John. Jews who lived in foreign lands or among gentiles often had/have their given Jewish name, and a name to match the localContinue reading “A Summary, Not Obliteration”
Good Goads
We read this odd statement by Yeshua to Paul, “Sha’ul, Sha’ul, why do you persecute me? You make it hard for yourself by kicking against the goads.” Most people have no problem believing that Yeshua is our Shepherd. Most would also agree that He is our Congregational Leader, “The Head of the Body”. Some evenContinue reading “Good Goads”
I am The Way, and The Truth, and The Life….
“I am HaDerekh, and HaEmet, and HaKhayim; no man comes to Avi [My Father] except by me.” ~ Yokhanan 14:6 People are turning away from the truth. They are indeed lining up teachers for themselves who scratch their itching ears, which quite obviously is a metaphor for ‘tell me what I want to hear.’ IContinue reading “I am The Way, and The Truth, and The Life….”
Ascend!
Working on the website for The Word, I completed the “Psalms of Ascent” this morning. These psalms were customarily sung during Pilgrimage to Jerusalem, as going to The Holy City is always considered an ascent. It was also custom to sing one of these fifteen psalms [120-134] on each one of the 15 steps leadingContinue reading “Ascend!”
Light
Do you wonder why you see a Menorah every time you look at my page, ‘near ’bouts’? Did you know there are actually multiple “Menorah” lamps in the book of Revelation? Most people are not aware of it. There are seven in chapters 2 and 3, and ONE in Chapter 4 and 5. The MenorahContinue reading “Light”
Blessed are those who mourn
Yeshua warned us. “Happy are you, when they reproach you and persecute you, and speak against you every kind of bad word, falsely, for my sake, then, be glad and rejoice, for your reward is increased in heaven; for in this very manner they persecuted the Nevi’im who were before you.” In having what IContinue reading “Blessed are those who mourn”
Resurrection to First-fruits
Shalom! Last night we celebrated “Havdallah”, or “Making Distinction”, to mark the end of the weekly Sabbath, called “Motzei Shabbat”, the departure of the Sabbath. But, last night was also the very Sabbath after our Passover, so it was also time to mark the First Omer [barley sheaf wave offering] of Bikkurim [Firstfruits]. Each week,Continue reading “Resurrection to First-fruits”
