A look at Leviticus 12 through 15

PARASHOT: “Tazriah” Lev 12:1-13:59 (she bears seed) and “Metsora” Lev 14:1-15:33 (infected ones). This week we have a double Bible study; “Tazriah” which talks about when a woman gives childbirth, and “Metsora” which talks about “Tzara-at” which most Bibles interpret as “leprosy” but in actuality, t...

2 Samuel 6:1-7:17 and Mark 14:1-72

2 SAMUEL 6:1-7:17 We see another case of “good intentions” which ended up bad. The Aron Ha Kodesh (Ark of the Covenant) had been in the hands of the Philistines for some time, YHVH cursed them and caused them to return it to Israel. David received it with glory and honor, HOWEVER, He did not transpo...

What is the "eighth" Day? (Leviticus 9:1-11:47)

PARASHA: “Shemini” (Eighth) LEVITICUS 9:1-11:47 We know that a week is seven days, We count starting Sunday, and seven days later, we come to “Yom Shabbat” the 7th day, a day to rest. So, what is the “eighth” day? It is another way of saying “Sunday” The number “8” symbolizes “a new beginning” the b...

A look at Jeremiah 7:21-8:3 and Mark 13:1-37

JEREMIAH 7:21-8:3; 9:22,23 Adonai states that "In the beginning" when Israel left Egypt, he did not talk about animal sacrifices when the 10 Commandments were given. There is not one single commandment in the "Decalog" which required animal sacrifices. The only animal sacrifice b...

Offering up ourselves to God! (Lev 6:8-8:36)

PARASHAH: “Tzav” (command) LEVITICUS 6:8-8:36 Last week we studied Parasha “Vayikra” (and he called) and this week, we read Parasha “Tzav” (command). We are studying the same offerings, yet the titles are different. One is “Called” and this study falls under “command.” What is the relationship here?...

No Passover, No resurrection Day...Know Passover, Know Resurrection day.

NO PASSOVER, NO RESURRECTION DAY……. KNOW PASSOVER, KNOW RESURRECTION DAY Play on words you might say, but let’s look at these words in detail. “NO PASSOVER= NO RESURRECTION DAY” Had there not been a first Passover in Egypt, had not the Israelites been freed from Egyptian slavery through “HaYad HaShe...

A look into Isaiah 43:21-44:23 and Mark 11:1-12:44

ISAIAH 43:21-44:23 YHVH speaks through the Prophet Yeshayahu and complains that Israel has forgotten about God, they no longer bring sacrifices, but are engrossed in sin, He explains that craftsmen will use their skill to make idols, that have no value, what a waste of craftsmanship! They can take i...

How is Yeshua/Jesus illustrated in Leviticus? (Leviticus 1:1-6:7)

PARASHA: “Vayikra” (and he called) LEVITICUS 1:1-6:7 The word “VaYikra” is interesting, as it occurs 3 times. It means “called to (and a person’s name) In other words, Adonai called Moshe from where “he was” to where “Adonai is”. To “bridge the gap of distance” The first “VaYikra” was when Moshe was...

Three Tabernacles? or three in one? (Exodus 38:21-40:38)

THREE TABERNACLES? OR THREE IN ONE? (Pikudei: Exodus 38:21-40:38) "accountings of" The Tabernacle is finished, and the congregation brings the finished product to Moshe for inspection. Giving an account of one's work, contribution, offerings, tithes, etc is very Biblical. The LORD expects ...

1 Kings 5:12-6:13 and Mark 3:1-4:41

1 KINGS 5:12-6:13 The tabernacle was used for many, many years. It followed “B'nei Israel”(The Children of Israel) when they crossed over the Jordan, 480 years later, it was replaced by the first temple that Melech Shlomo (King Solomon) built. It must have been magnificent. The Ark of the Covenant a...

God wants cheerful givers! (Exodus 25:1-27:19)

Parashah: “T'rumah” (offering) EXODUS 25:1-27:19 In this Bible study, we see that a request is made for a “free-will offering” so that the Tabernacle can be built and the articles of furnishings for the same. As we remember, when the Israelites left Egypt, they left with quite a treasure which the E...

JEREMIAH 34:8-22, 33:25-26 Jeremiah is known as the “weeping prophet” because Israel had returned to idolatry, and corruption, YHVH sends him with a message to Israel, “Repent” and “turn from your sins”, one of the sins was to go back on their word. Jeremiah told them that God had said, “Release you...
