2 Thessalonians 2:1–4 (KJV) 1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3...

1 Samuel 8 (KJV) 1 And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel. 2 Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abiah: they were judges in Beersheba. 3 And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took...

These verses thoroughly cover the topic: Revelation 1:6 (KJV) 6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Revelation 5:10 (KJV) 10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. 1 Peter...

The tie in to John 7 (as I recall) is that the events of John 8 took place on a Sabbath (weekly or ceremonial) on which the trial never should have taken place. And Jesus wrote in the dirt "Remember the Sabbath to keep it sanctified." The test of the Pharisees was to see it Jesus upheld the...

One more. This is why 2 Peter 1:20-21 is so crucial (to the point of HaShem placing it to the head of scriptures): Know this first! No prophecy of scripture is of any private interpretation nor of the will of man... But holy men of God were lead by the Holy Spirit. All scripture came in...

Does not all of this betray the imperfection of human communication / transmission of ideals? When you endeavor to pin down every detail and nuance you end up with ambiguity (depending on what the definition of is... is). "Ah feel your pain..."

I personally believe that the purpose for the Great Tribulation is to bring the surviving remnant of Israel to the brink of total annihilation... for only then will they cry out to Yeshua for salvation since nothing else will have worked. Matthew 23:37–39 (KJV) 37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou...

Having recently refined my evangelist outreach to benai Yehudiym (particularly yet not exclusively) I have found that the leaven of the Pharisees (which Yeshua called it) which blinds the children of Israel to who and what their Messiah is comes from a laser focus on Torah to the detriment of...

Blessings, Rabbi. Matthew 11: (CJB) 27 "My Father has handed over everything to me. Indeed, no one fully knows the Son except the Father, and no one fully knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son wishes to reveal him. Adonai Yeshua implicated that the knowledge of G-d is as...

This life is the most hell a believer in Jesus Christ will ever know. At the same time... This life is the most heaven an unbeliever in Jesus Christ will ever know.

Interesting to note, "the woman" who rides the beast (Revelation 17) in contrast to "the woman" who bore the Christ child (Revelation 12) hearkening back to the juxtaposition / contrast between the two seeds (Genesis 3:15). No doubt Eve thought she would be "the woman" spoken of and that her...

The woman in Revelation 12 is Israel. Genesis 37:9–10 (KJV) 9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me. 10 And he told it to his father, and to his...

The Bible also says do you not on the Sabbath day go down into the ditch to rescue your donkey in the hour of its distress?

Psalm 122:6 Normally a prayer for the eternal salvation of the Jewish people. But also for their need and safety in life especially in days like these. Few can imagine the horror they are going through now... or the threat of this horror they live with day by day. Sha'alu shalom...
