Hebrew Word: Jew, Jewish
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 25 January 2025: The term “Jew” or “Jewish” is a Rabbinic misnomer that is supposedly developed from the name “Judah” or “Judea”. But “Jew” or “Jewish” is more than a mere Rabbinic misnomer designated to refer to the ancient Israelites as “Jews”. By substituting the term “Jews” for all Israelites, the Ten Tribes of the northern kingdom are thus erased from the commonwealth of Israel, and the writings concerning them in the Biblical narrative nullified. Thus, in the Rabbinic Judaism all Israel became “Jewish”. The Rabbis went even further to refer to the patriarch Avraham as “the first Jew”, the calendar and all holidays of the Creator “Jewish. But this is etymologically inaccurate, as far as the Scripture is concerned. Seeing that the Rabbis and tradition commentators engage in an incorrect usage of these terms, at least in our opinion, … Read more.
How “Let the Dead Bury Their Dead” Was Misconstrued
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 22 January 2025: There is a passage in Matthew 8 that always perplexes a sensitive reader who tends to read the Scripture carefully. Moreover, it is extremely confusing, when we look only at what has been revealed to us in the narration. We need to resort to the Torah to make better sense of this short episode in the Apostolic Writings. It is the object of this work, therefore, to explain what is not satisfactorily explained by the commentators and expose certain misconceptions that still exist. We read from King James’ version of the Bible thus, … Read more.
The Daughter of Pharaoh Called to Receive a New Name Through Adoption
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 19 January 2025: In the following, we would like to posit a new reading of the Scroll of Shemot, specifically in reference to one person whom the Eternal called to receive a new name through adoption. Although the traditional commentators have already treated the subject of slavery in Egypt exhaustively, yet there is some room left for our comments. We will try to show that the subject is far from being exhausted and hope to provide a new understanding and answers to the questions we will raise below. For the purpose of this study and considering the unique standing of the subject we will focus more particularly on Exodus 2 and 1 Chronicles 4. It all began with the first chapter of Exodus to which we now turn. Read more.
The Saga of the Last Patriarch
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 11 January 2025: After Yoseph was sold in slavery and spent many years first as a slave and then in a prison accused unjustly, he rose to power in Egypt to become only second to Pharoah; he became the viceroy of Egypt. And Yoseph changed. Away from home and family, he was no longer the favored son of his father, who was reporting his brothers. In his encounter with his brothers, who came down to Egypt to buy grain on account of the famine in the land of Kana’an, he learned that his brothers, who wanted first to kill him but then to sell him, were not the same brothers either. They too changed to become responsible men, especially his brother Shimon who suggested to kill him, and Yehudah who wanted to sell him for money, but it was Yehudah who offer himself as a slave in his brother’s place. They were not the brothers who had animosity toward the favored son of their father. They were not jealous toward Binyamin, the other son of Rachel, whom Yoseph favored in order to test them. But they all came together to protect Binyamin, when Yoseph threatened to take him as a slave in another test. Now that the brothers reconciled the past, they reunited in a foreign land, when Ya’akov and all his family, seventy souls, descended to Egypt in the second year of the famine. With the above in mind, we may now understand that this compels us to consider the question: The brothers indeed changed, but did their father change? Read more.
Why Israel Did Not Leave Egypt After the Famine
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 5 January 2025: Yoseph administered Egypt during the seven years of famine, which are interrupted in order to describe how his family came to settle in Egypt. In the first year of the famine, there was no bread in the entire country, since the famine was very severe and all the grain that they had set aside as a reserve during the seven years of plenty had gone. And because the people languished due to the famine, Yoseph opened the granaries of Egypt. In Gen. 47:13-27, we learn that Yoseph had done more than just rescue Egypt from the famine. He instituted a new political system of Egypt by taking over all land as property of Pharaoh and making the people his servants. Yoseph uprooted the Egyptians from their places and moved from one end of Egypt to the other end, in order to disown them. Once the Egyptians were settled on land which was not theirs, they could not return to their lands settled by other people. We should recall that King Nevuchadnetsar of Babylon did exactly that with the peoples he conquered. Read more.
Yoseph Became the Person He was Meant to Be Because He Went to Egypt
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 4 January 2025: Yoseph was sold in Egypt as a slave. But the Elohim of his father was with him and did not abandon him as his brothers did. Now raised to the highest rank in Egypt, only second to Pharaoh himself, Yoseph could set his thought on his family in the land of Kana’an. On account of the famine that was throughout the whole land, his brothers came down to Egypt to buy grain, for grain could be found only in Egypt. Yoseph was expecting them to come for the famine was very great. And when they came, Yoseph put them in the same situation to commit the same sin, this time against their father’s favorite son: Binyamin. We will explore this in the context of the story of Binyamin, a story that poses significant challenges for the careful reader. Read more.
Christmas: “Do Not Do It and Do not Say You Are Doing It for Me!”

Traditional modern-day Christmas tree with ornaments and gifts beneath it. Exactly what the Lord warned: “Do not learn the way of the nations”.
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 29 December 2024: The world just saw Christmas out and is preparing to see the New Year in. Christmas is considered one of the holiest if not the holiest day in the Christian calendar of the western Church. Many Christians around the world celebrated the birth of Christ on Christmas Day, the 25th of December. While Christmas is believed to be the day of the birth of Christ, there are strong arguments in the Scripture that this is not the case. Rather, Christmas-like pagan practice around ornamented evergreen trees was celebrated in the ancient world that was exposed in the Book of Jeremiah. Yet, despite this, in our world Christmas Day is a public holiday in many nations that is celebrated religiously by many Christians and culturally by many non-Christians alike. Yet, another day comes for celebration: The New Year, on the 1st of January. While on this day at midnight begins nothing: nor a year, or a month, not even a day, the Creator of the universe has clearly designated a day for the beginning of the months in Exodus 12 … Read more.
The Coronation Psalm and the War of Gog of Magog
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 25 December 2024: Psalm 2 is written as a psalm without a heading in honor of a particular king. Its content and visionary language indicate that it is not describing a specific king but rather depicts a prophetic vision of the future redeemer, Melech haMashiach, King Messiah, as it is written: “This day I have brought you forth”. The psalmist penned his Psalm as a mirrored picture of what he saw and as an echo of what he heard. In the prophecy given through Natan the prophet (2Sa 7:5-16), the Eternal promised everlasting kingship to the House of David. One of the themes of the coronation of the kings of Israel was adoption, as it is written: “I will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me for a son” (2Sa 7:14). Read more.
Did the Brothers Exile Yehudah for Selling Yoseph?
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 20 December 2024: No matter how we will read the narratives of Ya’akov and Yoseph, we still will not know the entire story. And the story reads well until we start reading it carefully. Then, several questions start presenting themselves to the careful reader. And the Yoseph story begins in Genesis 37, wherein we learn that his father, Ya’akov, moved to the land of Kana’an, the land of his father, as we read, “These are the generations of Ya’akov. Yoseph, being seventeen years old, …” But should not have the genealogy said, “These are the generations of Ya’akov: Reuben, Shimon, Levi, Yehudah, etc.”? Why Yoseph? Because everything that happened to Yoseph from now on affected Ya’akov’s life. And to Ya’akov’s life we now turn to explain. The whole subject in Genesis 37-39 is extremely confusing, when we look only at what has been revealed to us in the narration. For this reason, we need to resort to textual criticism and logic to make better sense of this whole episode. In the following, we would like to posit another way to look at this narrative, specifically in reference to the life of Yehudah in Genesis 38. Read more.
When the Patriarch Vowed and Broke His Word
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 10 December 2024: Why did the Eternal move Israel and his family from the land of Kana’an to Egypt? The reason why Israel moved to Egypt, which turned to slavery, is not explicitly stated in the Torah. Was it an exile and if so, why? We have the reason to believe that it was an exile but why? Because of the famine? In the issue of famine in the entire land, there is a common mistake made when it is asserted that it caused the relocation of Israel to Egypt, where there was plenty of food. And if we are to say that the famine was the cause of the relocation, why did only Israel move to Egypt, and not the Kana’anites, since the famine affected the entire land? And who caused the famine in the first place and why? Yet, if we are to say that a strong nation is forged in challenges and trials, why was the nation of Israel not made such in Kana’an? These questions become even stronger when … Read more.
Does a Fetus Possess the Status of a Living Human Being?

The fraternal twins, Esav and Ya’akov, were born from the fertilization of two separate eggs with two different sperm cells. As a result, the twins did not have the same DNA code and were genetically distinct sharing half their genomes, just like any other siblings who were born at separate times.
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 30 November 2024: No one in his proper mind would agree that a person can wound someone else in order to save his/her own life. Then, why in a “civilized” society like ours can a pregnant woman wound her baby for the sake of “improving” her own health? Because abortion is a matter of “healthcare”, and a baby is a mere part of the mother’s body through the umbilical cord? The liberal culture claims that a fetus is not a conscious being and can therefore be aborted, that is, terminated, at the will of the mother, because the unborn fetus is considered to be a part of the woman’s body and not a separate person until the actual birth. Yet, science testifies that the unborn is a different person on account of … Read more.
The Troublesome Life of a Patriarch
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 24 November 2024: The Eternal told Avraham to leave his homeland and to go to an unknown land he would inherit. He promised Avraham to make him a father of many nations, innumerous as the stars. But as Avraham entered the promised land, he was wandering childless for twenty-four years. Then, Avraham was promised he would have a son, only one son. A year later Yitschak the promised son was born. At the age of thirty-seven, Yitschak was still childless, not even married, when the Eternal ordered Avraham to slaughter him, his only son: and all of this in order to test his righteousness, as if the Omniscient One needed to learn something He did not know?! There are questions to be asked here. What was the point of testing of Avraham’s faith, if the Omniscient already knew that Avraham would pass the test?! And why was there the need for the Eternal Elohim to test Avraham’s righteousness, when He had already declared him righteous many years before the test?! Read more.
The Messenger Who Stopped Avraham’s Hand
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 18 November 2024: The request from the Eternal to Avraham to bring up his son on the mountain and sacrifice him there comes out of nowhere. Why? For the Eternal said to him with a promise: “For it is through Yitschak that will be called your descendants” (Genesis 21:12). But then He said: “Take your son …and bring him up” (Genesis 22:2). And now it was said to Avraham: “Do not extend your hand against the lad. Do not touch him”. We wonder though! Our question concerning this is: Did the Eternal give a son to Avraham in the last of his days in order to tell him now to go and slaughter him without any wrong doings of his, and destroy not only the life of his only son but also the Covenant of promise? Has anyone known or heard of it, that such a thing could have ever passed His mind to pour out the blood of innocents in order to establish righteousness? Has He ever said such a horrible thing like this to any man to slay his own child in order to test his righteousness? After they arrived at the mountain and Avraham tied Yitschak on an altar, the Eternal revealed to him that his plan was never actually to have his son offered up as a human sacrifice. He would not issue a command and then take it back, for He and His will are unchangeable. The Eternal never intended for Avraham to sacrifice Yitschak, for He said it through the prophet that such a horrible thing would never come into His mind, as we read, … Read more.
When a Mother’s Womb Turns into a Grave
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 13 November 2024: In his monumental work Kohelet, King Sh’lomoh seeks to describe how man, having reached his old age (Ecc 12:1), is returning to his everlasting home (Ecc 12:5) where he had come from. The old man’s mind begins to darken, as the autumn of his life with clouds and rains is approaching (Ecc 12:2), all as a description of human life coming to an end. The dissolution of the life by which the separation of soul and body and the return of the soul to the Creator is thus completed, while the ordinary life continues in its course (Ecc 12:3-5). And the end of the life-force and the earthly body is the end of the perishing man. The body returns to the dust, as it was originally, for from the dust it was made of (Gen 3:19), and the life-force goes back to its Creator to whom it belongs and originated from (Psa 104:29), as the wise man says, … Read more.
