When reading the Scripture, very often we overlook important passages, especially when the main Biblical event has come to its completion, and we relax our efforts to learn. For years the present author has been perplexing as to the meaning of a certain verse in the Scripture, even a phrase, in the first letter of Shaul (Paul) the Apostle to the Corinthians. We read thus in 1Co 15:28: And when all are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself shall also be subject to Him...

Who is meant in the seven letters to the seven churches and why are they given exactly before the events that will transpire in the following chapters in Revelation?

But before we begin, the present author has to admit that it was very challenging and difficult for him to come to any decisive conclusions over the years. The concise language in the short letters to the seven churches in Revelation made...

The letter to Smyrna is the shortest letter of the seven letters to the seven churches in Revelation. Nevertheless, it is a complete and meaningful letter from YHVH to the faithful believers in Him and in His Son Yeshua the Messiah. So far, we studied five out of seven letters to the assemblies in Asia Minor: the letter to the church of Ephesus, to the churches in Pergamos, Thyatira, and Sardis, and the letter to the Laodiceans. And in the last article we studied as to why...

The Eternal gave His Covenant and Torah to His people on the day we celebrate as the Festival of the Weeks or in Hebrew: Chag Shavuot. In Greek however this day is called “Pentecost” (literally, the fiftieth). On the day of Pentecost, according to the Christian tradition and theology, in the upper room of apostle Peter, a new religious entity called “the Church” was born apart from Israel. The “proof text” the Christian theologians find...

The Book of Revelation is rightly called the most prophetic book in the entire Bible. There is no other book in the Bible that has so many prophecies in it. The dramatic events of the seven seals, the seven trumpets, and seven bowls will start the last three and half years commonly known as the Tribulation of this world, or the sounding of the seven trumpets. The Book of Revelation encompasses all prophecy from Gen 3:15 to Rev 22:21-22 concerning the coming and return of...

Today, many in the Messianic movement say that we cannot know with certainty the pronunciation of the Name of YHVH, the Tetragrammaton Yud-Hey-Vav-Hey. They say that the exact pronunciation of the Name of YHVH was lost in antiquities and therefore impossible to know its correct uttering. Others go even further to say that we cannot know how to pronounce the Name of YHVH, because of “the conspiracy of the Rabbis” who have hidden it by purposely supplying...
