Moshe begins by teaching the Hebrews the commandments, statutes, and judgments that Yahweh has given him, and admonishes them to listen and obey. Do we still place this admonition to listen first or foremost? The Foremost Command (Shema!) Deuteronomy 6:4 – “Shema Yisra’el, Yahweh Eloheynu, Yahweh echad!” “Hear O Israel, the LORD our God, is… Continue reading The Foremost Command Revisited

Revelation’s Two Supernatural Witnesses
The Two Supernatural Witnesses of Revelation All praise to Yahweh. The supernatural is not the exception, but the norm. And the Book of Revelation is filled with supernatural events and supernatural entities. Islands and mountains being moved from their places. Stars felling from heaven to earth in the same manner as a fig tree drops… Continue reading Revelation’s Two Supernatural Witnesses
Imminent and Instant Are Not Twinkling Eyes
Instant Defined by Biblical Word Definitions We use many words to define the words imminent, instant, or instantly including: abrupt, fast, immediate, instantaneous, prompt, quick, rapid, sudden, and unexpected. Scripture, likewise, uses many different words translated as imminent, instant, instantly, or suddenly. It’s All Hebrew To Me . . . Older Covenant Words Jeremiah 4:20… Continue reading Imminent and Instant Are Not Twinkling Eyes
Idioms and The Imminent Return of Yeshua
Idioms and Cultural Sayings When we look at scripture, we readily affirm that idioms and cultural sayings are frequently used and can even have prophetical significance. For instance, the fig tree starting to bloom is an idiom for Israel and the Jews returning to the land. In that day looks prophetically forward to when Messiah… Continue reading Idioms and The Imminent Return of Yeshua
Camping Out At Sukkot
You have heard it said that Sukkot is only about the final Moedim of Yahweh. But what if it is so much more? Summer is almost here and many are looking forward, no doubt, to a time of camping out in tents, in other words, in a sukkah! Praise Yahweh!! The Sukkot Moedim Leviticus 23:42… Continue reading Camping Out At Sukkot
The Imminent Return of Yeshua
The Imminent Return You have heard it said by many Pastors, Teachers, and Biblical Scholars that “There is no prophecy or event that must occur before Yeshua can return for his bride, he can come at any time, he could even come before you finish hearing this sentence.” I am going to upset a lot… Continue reading The Imminent Return of Yeshua
Enoch and Philip Don’t Just Disappear
Perhaps you have heard that Enoch and Philip just disappeared. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Gender and the Biblical Roles of Men and Women
Adam’s Bargain With Elohim We’ve all heard the joke that when Elohim described to Adam this wonderful creature He was about to create and Adam asked what it would cost, Elohim replied, “Well, an arm and a leg, of course!” To which Adam replied, “What will I get for just a rib?” And the rest… Continue reading Gender and the Biblical Roles of Men and Women
Yahweh’s Many Living Souls
Many ask the question “Did God really create everything out of nothing?” And the answer is both yes and no! Yes, there are some things that Elohim simply speaks into being, and other things that he builds, plants, or forms out of things that he has previously spoken into being. There are three main words… Continue reading Yahweh’s Many Living Souls
The Real Armor of God
No doubt you have heard it said about Ephesians 6:11-18 that “Paul is describing a Roman soldier’s armor.” If the weapons of our warfare are not human weapons, then why do so many teach that we are to put on a Roman soldier’s weapons? It may be mistaken perceptions, or more likely just unsound teaching.… Continue reading The Real Armor of God
Why We Should Celebrate the Moedim
Many people wrongly assume that the Moedim are Jewish or Israeli feasts, and are no longer relevant today. They could not be more mistaken if they tried - the moedim are Yahweh’s Divine Appointments. Whose Celebrations Are They? Exodus 31:13, Leviticus 23:14-31, etc. – “You are to observe my Shabbats; for this is a sign… Continue reading Why We Should Celebrate the Moedim

All Things Work For Good Revisited – Despite Suffering
Suffering Succotash, I say, Suffering Succotash Romans 8:18 – “I don’t think the sufferings we are going through now are even worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed to us in the future.” The books of Job and Proverbs do not treat the subject of suffering either systematically or philosophically but do give… Continue reading All Things Work For Good Revisited – Despite Suffering
Don’t Be Blindsided
Genesis 6:11 – “The earth was corrupt before God, the earth was filled with violence . . .” Luke 17:26 – “Just as it was in the days of Noah, so too it will be in the days of the Son of Man.” Yeshua warns us that upon his return, it will be just like… Continue reading Don’t Be Blindsided
Work and Worship Revisited – The Hebrew Word ‘Âbad
Did you know that work and worship are equivalent according to the Bible? Most people do not. The Western mindset assumes that the word ‘âbad is only associated with work or service.

The Laodicean Church Has No Clue
Not A Clue The lame duck, Laodicean, replacement theology teaching “church” hasn’t got a clue. It teaches that the Jews must convert to Christianity. What a load of hogwash, codswallop, balderdash. Synagogues of Satan spreading manure. It isn’t the Jews who must convert, says Ali Siadatan, but the gentiles! And I couldn’t agree more heartily.… Continue reading The Laodicean Church Has No Clue
Biblical Prophecies Start With Breshiyth
The Biblical Prophecies Start With The First Hebrew Word in Genesis, B’re’shiyth! – Not Verse 3:15 Isaiah 46:10 – Yahweh declares “At the beginning I make known the end from the beginning [H7225], and from ancient times the things that are not yet done.” You have heard it said that “the first prophecy in the… Continue reading Biblical Prophecies Start With Breshiyth

Seven Rapture Patterns – Revisited
Interpretive Lenses The best scholars use many different lenses to interpret scripture which include allegorical, archeological, anthropological, cultural, feminist/homosexual, German Higher Critical, Grammatical, Hebrew idioms, Rabbinical sayings, rational, rhetorical, and theological.

Hebrews, Jews, and Israel
Who are the Hebrews? And are the Jews the same as Israel? Guest Post By Mondo Gonzales Ever since the October 7, 2023, terrorist attack against Israel and their justified war to eradicate Hamas, the increase of antisemitism worldwide has skyrocketed. Now, I have believed that there will always be a certain level of antisemitism… Continue reading Hebrews, Jews, and Israel
The Land Called “Palestine” Belongs To The Jews
Historical Records Today there is much discussion about the ownership of the land by Israel, claiming that Jews have no claim to the land and that Jews are merely occupiers of the land belonging to the “Palestinians”. History, however, tells a different story. When Abraham entered into the land is was known as the land… Continue reading The Land Called “Palestine” Belongs To The Jews
Israel Is The Fig Tree That Has Bloomed
Matthew 24:32-33 and Mark 13:28-29 – “When the fig tree branches begin to bud and its leaves begin to sprout, you know that summer is near.

Books Mentioned In The Bible Revisited
The Bible is filled with interesting signposts to other books that were known to those who are mentioned in scripture, but many of which remain unknown to modern mankind.

Yahweh Is Too Holy Revisited
Today we examine the mistaken perception that Yahweh is so holy that he cannot be anywhere that sin or evil exists – that he cannot confront sin or evil in person. Is Yahweh afraid of sin? Is he unable to enter into a sinful or evil place? Absolutely not! Absolutely not! Yahweh is always present.… Continue reading Yahweh Is Too Holy Revisited
Yahweh’s Name is Not The LORD Revisited
The LORD Is Not My Name Exodus 20:7 – “You shall not take the name of Yahweh your Elohim in vain . . .” The name, Yahweh, has been edited out of most modern translations.

Abolish or Fulfill Revisited
Matthew 5:17-18 – “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.” Many have quoted this verse to back up their claim that the Older Covenant has been superceded by the Newer Covenant and all law has been completed… Continue reading Abolish or Fulfill Revisited
Honoring YHWH Correctly 2
Deuteronomy 6:4 – “Shema Yisra’el, Yahweh Elohiym, Yahweh echad!” This verse is traditionally translated “Hear O Israel, the LORD our God, is one”.

The word translated “God” is Elohiym… Continue reading Honoring YHWH Correctly 2

Yeshua’s Millennial Reign
Did Yahweh Really say? The phrase “reign for a thousand years” is found in Revelation 20:4-7! In Greek it reads: basileuô chilioi etos [βασιλεύω G936 χίλιοι G5507 ἔτος G2094] and in Latin: regnabunt cum illo mille annis – from which we get the English term: “millennial reign”. Millennium comes from mille annis – literally 1000… Continue reading Yeshua’s Millennial Reign
