When do we start counting of omer to have seven complete weeks to Shavuot? This question has been a great deal of debate among the observant believers who want to serve the Creator the way He wants to be served. When you come into the land which I give you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring an omer of the first-fruits of your harvest to the priest. And he shall wave the omer before Yehovah, for your acceptance. On the morrow after the Sabbath the priest waves...

Question: What is the difference between Mount Horev and Mount Sinai? Answer: The use of the generic name Horeb (Deu 1:6) is to designate the mountain group in today’s Saudi Arabia (Gal 4:25) where Israel spent thirty years in the Arabian exile. It comes from the verb חָרַב charav, to parch (through drought), that is, (by analogy) to desolate. While the specific name סִינַי Sinai is given to the particular mountain upon which the Torah of YHVH was given to the nation....

The Bible prophecy alludes to three scenarios of the War of Gog of Magog in Ezekiel 38-39, Zechariah 9-11, and Zechariah 12-14, the final war in this world, also known as World War III – the final war that will end all wars before the return of Yeshua, the Messiah of YHVH. Two main Biblical prophets – Zechariah and Ezekiel – foretold messages about the War of Gog of Magog. The War of Gog of Magog is predestined; it will happen regardless. It is predestined from the...

“Once saved always saved” is a doctrine, although not as prevalent as the Predestination, created by men that once a Christian “accepts Christ as a personal Savior” he or she becomes “born again” and cannot lose his or her salvation. Not all mainstream Christian Churches, such as the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church, support this doctrine. “Once saved always saved” doctrine is supported and it is even a main...

Predestination vs Free Will is a paradox created by men and the heavenly predestination is one of the most inaccessible mysteries, locked in the realm of YHVH’s reason and wisdom. The human mind, falling short on comprehension and limited in its ability to grasp what is inconceivable to grasp, will never be able to understand this mystery of predestination and free will. There is nothing as proud or as curious as the human mind or what the human mind thinks of itself....

The Messenger of YHVH aka The Messenger of His Face is a mystery that cannot be comprehended completely. Who is this Messenger and what is His identity? The answers are found in the trial against Apostle Stephanos (Acts 7) where we also find the inconvenient truth for many, then and now. The exposure of this inconvenient truth in his fervent speech before the corrupted clique of Pharisees is the subject of this article. Apostle Stephanos was falsely accused by the Pharisees...

Little is known that YHVH’s covenant with the Levites is called Covenant of Salt. “Covenant of salt” comes from YHVH’s command that everything brought on the altar must be seasoned with salt; salt is not be lacking from any blood or bloodless sacrifices for the purpose of giving greater intensity to the force of these sacrifices (Lev 2:13). And if salt is so important to YHVH, then we understand that the salt of the sacrifice is also called the salt...

The Rabbis teach that “lashon hara”, evil tongue, is punishable with “tsara’at”, “leprosy”. They also teach that a Jew cannot speak evil tongue against another Jew, and rightfully so. They derive this teaching from the story in Numbers 12 where Miriam and Aharon spoke against their brother Mosheh. Miriam and Aharon spoke against Mosheh because of the Kushite woman whom he had married. Later in the story she was punished with...

“You are not under the Law but under grace” statement in Romans 6 is probably the most quoted by many theologians phrase (along with others) to “prove” that the new Gentile believers are not to observe the commands in the Torah of YHVH. Tons of papers have been written to justify the rejection of the Torah and replacing it with the laws of men and traditions rooted in paganism incorporated into the faith. Faith did not change Rome, Rome changed the...

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,...

According to the main stream doctrine of the Christianity, the Jerusalem Council exempted the Christians from observing the Law and recommended only four prohibitions for them to observe. Part of this doctrine is that the apostles abolished circumcision of the Christians because they are not “under the Law”. However, if that were the intent of the apostles, why did they continue to be Law-observant for decades after the resurrection of the Messiah if “the...

Throughout the centuries the name of Yeshua has been secretly and jealously guarded by the Rabbis of blessed memory that he is the long-anticipated Messiah. In their literature, they called him, Sar HaPanim, “Ruler of the Face” [of the Eternal]. The ruler of Israel about whom Mosheh prophesied at Mount Nebo. And the Eternal said to me, ‘What they have spoken is good. I shall raise up for them prophet like you out of the midst of their brothers. And I shall put...
