Spiritual Seasons – Vezot Ha’Brachah

For this final portion in the Torah, we briefly find the Salvation Pattern in the opening verses of Moses’ blessing, connect Moses’ final act before Israel to tree behavior, trace the building of a home through the blessings, discuss why it is that Moses can’t lead the people into the Land, and connect Yeshua to […]

Vayakhel 2022

This year’s Vayakhel teaching is all about two words and their associated Hebrew letters: fire and water, shin and mem. We think of fire and water as opposites and say, “fire and water don’t mix;” in the natural, this is true, but our God is supernatural, and He calls us to live beyond nature, as […]

Shemot 2021

“Shemot” means “names,” and we look at the Hebrew for several names in this week’s teaching. Before we do so, we ask the question, “Why did Israel have to go down to Egypt?” Other topics include four uses of the phrase “on the stones” and the “deep” subject of four men who meet four women […]

The New Earth: A Guide Book

With this Shabbat falling on the 8th day of Sukkot (“Shemini Atzeret”), we continue to pause our Nehemiah study for one more week to focus on the transcendent. Perhaps no part of scripture moves “beyond” more than the end chapters of Revelation. So it is that we focus this Shabbat on Revelation chapters 21 and […]

Tzav 2018-19

We begin this year’s teaching on portion Tzav by asking the question, “What does the commandment to the priests regarding daily removal of the sacrificial ashes have to do with my life as a living sacrifice?” Meditation on such questions leads to great insight as we apply even the seemingly most obscure commandments to our […]

Lech Lecha 2018-19

Why is Abraham such a big deal in Scripture? In answering this question, we focus this cycle’s Lech Lecha teaching on the ancient Semitic blood covenant, a pivotal concept for understanding many important biblical events. As we see the blood covenant between God and a man play out over history, we begin to grasp more […]

Haf. Vayeishev (Amos 2:4 – 8:6)

Join Beth Tikkun as we continue our study of the Haftarah portions for the 2013-14 Torah cycle. In this teaching we examine several life principles found in this short passage of Amos. We also consider how God is represented as a lion as well as a “consuming fire” and see what we can learn about […]
