From the very beginning of the world, the Creator has set a prohibition of eating flesh with its life, because life is in the blood of every creature He created, whether human or animal. But do not eat flesh with its life, its blood. (Gen 9:4) This prohibition applies to the eating of flesh with blood of life in it, whether of living animals, as is the barbarous custom of the heathens in Wuhan, or of slaughtered animals from which the blood has not been properly drained, or...

Question: How do we count the Sabbatical and Jubilee years and can we know when they will occur? Answer: The law of the Sabbatical and Jubilee years is given in Leviticus 25. The children of Israel were commanded that when they would come into the land, they were to observe a Sabbath of the land to YHVH. Six years the land is to be tilled and gather in its fruit, but in the seventh year the land is to have a Sabbath of rest. No field work is allowed in the Sabbatical year....

Question: According to the Torah, what does the Passover dinner include? Answer: The law of Pesach (Passover lamb) is very specific on what the Pesach dinner should include. We read in Exo 12:8-10 that we shall eat lamb roasted in fire with unleavened bread and with bitter herbs. We are not to eat it raw, nor boiled, but roasted in fire. And what remains of the lamb, we are to burn with fire and not discard in the trash. It is not an ordinary meal, it is the Pesach of YHVH....

Question: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Answer: If the answer is the egg, then the question arises: “Where did the chicken come from?” But if the chicken is the answer, then: “Where did the egg come from?” And the circle thinking goes on and on. This may sound like a silly question, but actually, it is not; it is very philosophical. First of all, to answer the question with a question, what does it have to do with the Bible study? But as...

Euthanasia is an act of killing someone painlessly by a physician (especially someone suffering from an incurable illness). It is also called by the misnomer “mercy killing” or “mercy death”, depends on which side of “mercy” one stands. Euthanasia is also called “assisted suicide” or “right to die” (as if a man has contributed for his birth in order to have the right to die). The road to hell is paved with good...

Today, 8 April 2020, in the Land of Israel, the Festival of the Unleavened Breads is about to begin at sunset. On that day 3,531 years ago, there was no festival in Egypt. That day was then known as the day of Pesach (the Passover lamb), while YHVH was passing over His people to protect them from death. It was a day of distress and fear—fear of the unknown. We were eating the Pesach with unleavened bread in haste and fear, while there was a great cry throughout all Egypt,...

There will be a second and even a greater Exodus of Israel unseen and unheard before! Moreover, this second Exodus of Israel will be so great that the first one from Egypt will be remembered no more. The stage for the second Exodus is being set before our eyes for everyone to see. The first month of Creator’s calendar is known as the month of our Redemption. In the first month of the year, we were redeemed from Egypt, and it will be in the first month in which we will...

There is a secret Yoseph (Joseph) kept all his life. He was the favorite son of his father Ya’akov from his beloved wife, who dreamed two prophetic dreams about the family. But those dreams were not the secret Joseph kept in his heart. What was that secret Joseph kept, because the Torah tells us nothing about it? Ya’akov’s sons sold Yoseph in slavery in Egypt and he would not see him for 22 years until they were once again united. We should notice a...

Three major prophecies depict the War of Gog of Magog, the battle for Jerusalem – the final war that will end all wars before the coming of the Anointed One of YHVH. In chapter “Two Scenarios for the War of Gog of Magog” from the book “The Reckoning of Time“, the present author suggested that both prophecies in Ezekiel 38-39 and Zechariah 12-14 speak of one war – the War of Gog of Magog or the battle for Jerusalem – in which war the scenario in Zec 12-14 appears to be the...

The exclamation “Amen!” is so often misuse and even abuse by the preachers that it has lost its true meaning and has become a cliché in the churches today. Pastors, preachers, teachers, and TV evangelists, teach from the pulpit “teachings” foreign and sometimes even contradictory to the Teaching (Torah) of the Creator, and then they call for a repeat-after-me “Amen” and the laymen follow suit: “Amen!” But what does...

Chiasmus or chiasm, as the one found in Psalm 83, is a method used in the Scripture to emphasize the main idea or topic, which also serves to reveal hidden messages in the prophecy. In Chapter “The Prophetic Psalm 83” from the present author’s book The Reckoning of Time, we called Psalm 83 prophetic, because we see the realization of this psalm in our days, namely, all surrounding Arab nations conspire plots to destroy the State of Israel and drive the...

Urim and tummim are perhaps the most peculiar article of the high priest attire. How they looked like, most unfortunately the Torah does not tell much. Nevertheless, what the Torah tell us is that they functioned as a means of communication between YHVH and His people. Mosheh (Moses) is distinguished from the people as the mediator of the Covenant of YHVH. He led the people out of Egypt and brought them to Mount Sinai where Israel received the revelation of the Torah and...
