A False Prophet: “Let’s Go After Other Gods!”

Posted by on Aug 30, 2023 in Oneness of the Creator

It is the object of this work to touch upon well-known passages in the Hebrew Scripture that much have been avoided in the traditional Christian commentaries: the enticer who says, “Let us go after other Gods”. In this endeavor in which we will seek to find out who those “Gods” are, we are fully aware that we cannot remove all the difficulties that have been in the minds of the people for centuries, but it is worth trying. We are also aware that what...

From Monotheism to Dualism to Trinity

Posted by on Apr 9, 2023 in Oneness of the Creator

The concept of “trinity” is very problematic or at least polemic from Hebraic perspectives. It is true that Scripture refers to YHVH as Israel’s Father, Husband, or Lover. It is true that the “son of God” is an analogy for the people of Israel (“my son Israel”) and the messengers (“sons of God”). And it is true that the rabbis identified Ruach HaKodesh, as the Shechinah, which is the presence of the Eternal among His people....

Trinity or Three Angels Appeared to Avraham

Posted by on Apr 2, 2023 in Oneness of the Creator

The word “trinity” cannot be found anywhere in the Hebrew Scripture, yet the very first book in the Torah seems to suggest that YHVH appeared to Avraham in the form of three angels. Nevertheless, this apparent suggestion falls short on why there is no mention of the trinity in the Scripture.  But it was not until the beginning of the third century that a Greek thinker named Tertullian (Carthaginian theologian (160-230) whose writing influenced early Christian...

The Ancient of Days and His Manifested Presence

Posted by on Jun 23, 2022 in Oneness of the Creator

The prophets Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel saw someone seated on a heavenly throne in their visions. While Isaiah gives no description of the Eternal, and Ezekiel and Daniel describe Him having corporeal features, it is Daniel who identifies Him by calling Him the Ancient of Days. And it is Daniel who was given to see another one in a vision whom he called the Son of Man. Whom or what did the prophets see? In the following we will learn to distinguish between YHVH’s...

The Ten Sefirot of the Creator Part 2

Posted by on Jan 14, 2021 in Oneness of the Creator

In Part 1 of The Ten Sefirot of the Creator, we learned the Infinite Creator’s ten sefirot are the ten emanations or radiances through which He created the finite world. Through the ten sefirot supernatural energy radiates from the Creator. Through them the Invisible One reveals Himself and continuously creates both the physical realm and the higher supernatural realm. In Part 2 of this study, we will explain what the ten sefirot do and how the world was created...

The Ten Sefirot of the Creator Part 1

Posted by on Jan 8, 2021 in Oneness of the Creator

The Creator’s ten sefirot are the ten emanations through which He reveals Himself and continuously creates both the physical realm and the higher supernatural realm. Through the ten sefirot supernatural energy radiates from the Creator. They are also called ten emanations or ten radiances and can be perceived as ten creative forces that intervene between the Infinite Creator and the created finite world. Through these powers the Creator created and rules the universe,...

The Pre-existing first-born Son of Elohim

Posted by on Jun 14, 2020 in Oneness of the Creator, The Messiah

The question “Does God have a pre-existing Son, first-born of the creation?” always opens the door of polemic between religions that will never be closed by men. The verses from JPS translation (Gen 6:2-4, Job 1:6, Job 2:1, and Job 38:7) showing that the Creator of the universe does have sons, namely, His messengers (angels), do not bring much argumentation. If the argument against them is that these verses are general references to angels, and no specific son...

The Hebrew Ruach HaKodesh vs the Roman Holy Spirit

Posted by on Dec 15, 2019 in Oneness of the Creator

The Hebrew Ruach HaKodesh and the Roman Holy Spirit are two different concepts of the power of the Creator; the former sees Ruach HaKodesh as the creative force, the power of the Creator through which everything came into existence, while the latter sees it as the “third person” of the “Holy Trinity”: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, three persons in one God, all Gods, yet they are one God. In this trinitarian formula, which appears only in...

The Oneness of the Creator

Posted by on Dec 11, 2019 in Oneness of the Creator

If there is a human being who had ever known the Oneness of the Creator, that was Mosheh. He was the only human being who had ever known the Creator so closely, to speak with Him mouth to mouth and face to face, yet, he simply said, “Listen up O Israel, YHVH is one!” The common understanding of this appeal, known as Shema Israel, is the Oneness of Creator God, i.e. the oneness or unity of the Godhead, and the obedience of His people to His will. In Time of...

Virgin Birth of the Messiah the Mystery of Life

Posted by on Dec 1, 2019 in Oneness of the Creator, The Messiah

Virgin birth of the Messiah is a main stream theological doctrine, according to which the Messiah had no human father. Matthew clearly testifies that Yeshua the Messiah was born to a virgin, Miryam, and Yoseph adopted her son. However, Shaul says that the Son of Elohim had no father and mother, without genealogy, yet, we believe that the Messiah was born to a virgin mother. And if a birth is only possible at fertilization of a woman’s reproductive egg by a man’s...

Mystery of Origin of Life

Posted by on Nov 28, 2019 in Oneness of the Creator, The Origin

The origin of life by the Spirit of Elohim and the inspiring with life from the Breath of the Almighty has always been a mystery. Elohim created man in His image and since then Adam’s creation is repeated in the formation of every human being. Thus, man became the image of Elohim not in the bodily form, but by the merit of His Breath by which he became a living soul. Man will never truly comprehend the mystery of origin of life and the way he was created. Yet, Newton...

The Transcendent Son Hidden in Elohim

Posted by on May 26, 2019 in Oneness of the Creator, The Messiah

The transcendent Son of YHVH exists beyond and outside the ordinary range of human experience or understanding. The Bible and the Rabbinical literature undoubtedly speak of a preexisting Being in heaven, who was in the Creator’s plan at the origin of the universe, through whom and for whom all things visible and invisible were created: The transcendent Son of YHVH. The Messiah of YHVH has a human nature with all human traits including the ability to sin. And indeed,...
