If there are any doubts that the prophecy in the Book of Daniel is not concerning the end of times but concerning Antiochus IV Epiphanes (c. 215 BCE–164 BCE), the last Chapter 12, wherein the end of the world is described, shreds them all. In this introduction to our survey, we would like to touch upon on a phrase in the Book of Daniel that much has been overlooked in the traditional commentaries, considering its unique standing in the verse. There are two general stages...

At first glance, the account of the suffering servant in Isaiah 53 looks like an account of a suffering individual, because of the language employed in it that uses characteristics acquainted with man. But a closer examination shows that much of the translation is misappropriated, because it was taken out of context. In the preceding article “The Servant in Isaiah 53: Collective figure of Israel or an Individual”, we defended the view that it is crucial for the...

There have been wars since the beginning of the world. The first murder was committed by the firstborn in the world Kayin who killed his twin brother Havel. Since then, the killing of human beings by human beings has become a norm of war. Since the ancient times, another form of crime has become a norm of war: rape. Rape in time of war has been weaponized to spread fear in the invaded land and demoralize its population. Girls and women have been raped, abducted, and sold as...

It is the object of this work to explain the Hebrew text of Zechariah 13 and to expose certain alterations in the KJV translation which significantly change the message in the prophecy. But this endeavor is only possible when we explore the issue from Hebraic perspectives. Once we know what the Hebrew text indeed reads and understand the meaning of its words and know its grammar, we can draw correct conclusions at the end of this study. We will explain the reason for this...

The drones may be a modern-day technology, but their deadly impact was predicted more than three thousand years ago in the last book of the Torah, in the Torah portion “Eikev”, “Because” (Deuteronomy 7:12-11:25), fully charged with prophecy and admonition. To this Torah portion we now turn. The common custom throughout all Israel is to complete the reading of the Torah in one year with the Torah divided into 54 portions. A portion of the Torah is read in the synagogues...

The Druze people are an ethnoreligious group. Today, there are Druze communities in Syria (the largest one), Lebanon, Israel, and Jordan (the smallest one). The Druze culture and language are Arabic, yet their social customs are different from the mainstream Arab nationalism, as the Druzes integrate fully in their adopted countries. What is peculiar for the Druzes is that they maintain close ties within the community across the borders, yet they remain loyal to the host...

At the head of the Creator’s appointed times in Leviticus 23, where all the appointed times are listed, the Sabbath Day (Hebrew, Shabbat) stands alone as the day which the Creator had already set apart from the beginning of creation, as His own rest and a day of rest for His people (Genesis 2:3). Much later in history, He will codify it as a law and one of the commandments in the Covenant in Exodus 20:8-11. We read the literal translation of the first account concerning the...

The whole subject of speaking evil in the Torah is extremely confusing, when we look at it only in the narrow context of a single story, even though well narrated. The reason why we find this important to emphasize in the very opening of our study will be made clear further on. In the following, it remains for us to explain the necessity of addressing the subject of speaking evil, which arises from the fact that there are several Scriptural passages in which it appears. It...

In Numbers 12, we find that Miriam and Aharon spoke against Mosheh concerning the Kushite woman whom he had just married. According to oral tradition, which is not well established, the rabbis have learned that the Kushite woman was Tsippora, the Midianite, the daughter of Yitro, who was called Kushite (Ethiopian) because she was beautiful as the Kushite women were. Although Tsippora was Mosheh’s wife, he had separated from her and refrained from marital relations in order...

In the Book of Numbers, there is a phrase that seemingly is easy to understand, when we look only at what has been revealed to us in the narration. But the Hebrew text tries to tell us something beyond what is immediately obvious. In such a case, we need to resort to the writings of the Rabbis to make better sense of the whole episode. It is, therefore, the object of this work to explain the Hebrew text of Numbers 7 and to interpret its literal translation. This matter can...

A translation is not the words of God but the words of man. When you read a translation, you read the opinion of the translator. And the surest way of misunderstanding Torah is to read a translation. The greatest confusion comes when a Hebrew word is poorly or even intentionally translated to read what it actually does not. Such an example is the Hebrew word often rendered in foreign translations as “stranger”, “foreigner, “alien”. The choice of these words in the...

In this introduction to our survey of the Book of Numbers, we would like to clarify an obscure passage in the census of Israel with which this book begins. In the following, we would like to posit to the studious reader another way to look at this, specifically in reference to the censuses of Israel in Numbers 1 and Numbers 26. The matter will become clear to the reader once we understand why the second census shows fewer numbers than that of the first one and what...
