The primordial light having existed from the beginning in the earliest state of the universe was created with the decree, “Light exist!”, and the light existed. Maimonides, the greatest Jewish scholar of the Middle Ages, in his fundamental work Guide for the Perplexed, states that there is a difference between “first” and “beginning” (or principle). For example, heavens and earth were the first to be written in Genesis, after them came...

It may come as a surprise to many that the Torah recognizes the possibility of a situation in which the Rabbis can err and thus lead many to sin. We will address this question in the following vein and leave the conclusion to the reader’s consideration. Did the Rabbis err in the trial of Yeshua? Torah never recognizes any appeal to a higher court by the different parties to a lawsuit, that if the matter should be too difficult for the local judge to decide, they...

The term “hireling”, as used by the Good Shepherd in the Gospel of John, suggests “one who speaks the Word of Elohim for pay”, or the so-called “professional priesthood” of today, as they call themselves. These hirelings (bishops, pastors, reverends, and TV evangelists) teach that they are entitled to receive the money of the laymen, but are they? The apostles taught and practiced exactly what the Good Shepherd, Yeshua the Messiah, had...

Was the Pharisaic trial of Yeshua illegitimate? In this introduction to the subject, we would like to clarify presently the fateful trial that much has been written on, but still some legal issues have not been perceived. In order to clarify these legal issues in their entirety, we must initially make some inquiries in the Rabbis’ own words: the Mishnah, or the so-called “the Oral Law” (the Mishnah is the first part of the Talmud; a collection of early oral interpretations...

The Book of Leviticus Vayikra begins with “And he called”, which has given the name of this book (Hebrew for “and he called”). This seems like an unusual way to begin a book with “And”. But, this is not the only book that begins in such a way. The books of Exodus, Numbers, Joshua, Judges, Samuel 1&2, Kings 1&2, Ruth, Esther, and Ezra too begin with the Hebrew letter vav, “and”. Who called to Mosheh in the very opening...

We should recall that there was a messenger, who led the people out of Egypt and went before them in the pillar of cloud and fire, to guide and to defend them day and night (Exo 13:21) in the wilderness for forty years. But because it was the Eternal who was guiding His people in the person of His messenger, He demanded unconditional obedience to him. He said concerning this messenger, Beware of his presence and listen to his voice. Do not rebel against him, for he is not...

In rabbinic tradition, Metatron is the unique Messenger of the Presence of the Eternal, the one who bears the Tetragrammaton and guided Israel through the wilderness to Mount Sinai. According to the rabbinic sources, this Messenger of the Presence (literally, the Faces) has been entrusted by the Creator to run the universe according to natural laws. In some rabbinic works, he is called also “Metatron Mashiach”, or the Anointed Metatron. The messianic expectation...

In this introduction to the errors in the genealogy of Yeshua, we would like to clarify certain issues that many have touched upon, much has been written on, but still its depths have not been perceived. In order to clarify these issues in their entirety, we must initially make some inquiries about the Greek of the canonical gospels. We will explain the reason for these inquiries in due course. How many of us are aware of serious errors in the genealogy of Yeshua in the...

The reckoning of Yeshua’s ancestors with its three divisions of fourteen generations was perhaps so arranged by Matthew to evoke our reasoning. We should notice that for this purpose, the disciple traced the line from Avraham through David to Yeshua. This line is interrupted in two places: Avraham to King David, from King David to the exile to Babylon, and from the exile to Yeshua: three divisions of fourteen generations each. But if we count Yeshua’s ancestors...

While on Mount Sinai, Moses received the instructions concerning the building of the menorah, the seven-branch lampstand, according to the pattern which YHVH had shown him in Exo 25:31-40, in Num 8:2-4 its design was brought to realization: beaten work of pure gold, from its base to its blossoms. We may think that while there were no windows inside the Tabernacle there was a need for the lights of the menorah. But we will suggest that the menorah might have had other...

Continued from Part 1 But when will the Renewed Covenant with Israel take place? In Time of Reckoning Ministry, we have the strong reason to believe that the renewal of the covenant had already taken place. In the oath Adonai YHVH took to restore the nation of Israel and cleanse it from the iniquities (Eze 36:23-28), He used “I shall” eight times. Seven is the number of perfection and completion, like the creation week—the Creator completed His work on the seventh day and...

Some expect King Messiah to come; others to return. We should not be surprised if we all are awaiting the same person. But is there an ordained time in the Scripture for the Messiah’s revelation and can we know it? Throughout history Israel has eagerly awaited the ultimate redemption through the Messiah, and the return of the exile to the Land to become again one nation — this time forever. The Messiah, the prophet Mosheh bade Israel to await, has been seen as the figure...
