Nobody likes a showoff, in fact one of the quickest ways to get God’s quick rebuke is to give glory to yourself in a prideful show. Giving and prayer were always intended to be points of relationship with God, not bragging rights. God isn’t concerned with our good works as much as the motivation of our Heart being right. So how should we worship God through our giving and prayer?

Yom Kippur is a solemn day, no matter if you are secular or religious, all Jewish people observe this day, where the Rabbis say the book of life is opened in Heaven. And as followers of Yeshua this feast has many layers in the past, present, and future fulfillment! We see our High priest who alone made atonement for us through His blood, even today intercedes for us, and through faith in His redemption inscribes our names in the Book of Life!

On this day as the thoughts of Israel focus on God, will you partner with us to reveal the Messiah who made atonement for our sins? Help more Israelis discover their Messiah, become a One for Israel partner today!

We kick off a new series on the fall festivals and how they foreshadow the Return of our Messiah! Yom Teruah or the Feast of Trumpets is an amazing festival of expectation and introspection. But does the books of Ezra and Nehemiah and prophecies in the New Testament give deeper meaning to the return of our Messiah?

When you look at the prophecies and scriptures in detail and see the amazing works and miracles that Yeshua did, it's hard to understand why the religious leaders rejected Him. But it wasn't just the scribes and pharisees who were confused at the work of Yeshua, but even his closest disciples. We look into the famous rebuke of Peter in Matthew 23 and discover the deeper understanding of the battle of the finite or flesh focused mind vs the infinite and eternal focused perspective of God.

Quotes for the Podcast:

Jer. 10:10 God is truth.

2Tim. 2:13 even if we do not believe, God still exists in truth, cause He can't deny Himself.

John 14:1, 6 Yeshua (Jesus) said: believe in God and also believe in me, and then in in verse 6, He said he was the truth. So again, we see truth and faith are connected.

Dr. Aviezer Raviztky admits that Rabbinic Judaism is not interested in faith but in keeping the Oral-Law. In Hebrew:

Mishnah, T. Avot 6: God gave Israel countless commandments in order to justify them.

But by focusing on ceremonial laws, the Rabbis took Judaism to a double exile: physical and spiritual, see in Hebrew:

Are you Kosher? Is Kosher what we eat? Should I mix milk and meat? What about bacon!?! We continue our series on the Spirit of the Law with what God is trying to teach us with the Kosher or Clean/Unclean commandments. Every commandment from God has a meaning, a precept to learn from, a parable teaching deeper things, and foreshadowing our Messiah's work. So what did God intend to teach us through the dietary laws, and what have we made of it today?

Just as a disclaimer!! This podcast is NOT about is it ok to eat Bacon or Shrimp!!!

Remember Roman's 14 and Colossians 2:16 as you guys comment! ; )

Here are all the references for the podcast:

''you shall not cook a goat in it's mother milk'' (Exodus 23:19, 34:26, Deuteronomy 14:21).

The rabbis interpreted this to mean you can not eat or cook any meat together with dairy (b. Talmud, Chulin 115b).

Abraham gives his guests meat and milk to eat (Genesis 18:8).

The Talmud says Abraham kept Kosher and in fact, kept the Oral Law (b. Talmud, Yoma 28b).

So the Midrash says Abraham guests did not actually ate, but were pretending to eat (Midrash 'BeReshit Raba').

The Bible give at least two more examples of Jew eating meat and dairy together (Deuteronomy 32:14 and 2 Sam. 17:29).

Bible scholars, Prof. Moshe Kasutto and Chaim Ginsberg, explain that in context, the 3 verses from Torah that speak about cooking a calf in his mother's milk, has nothing to do with eating kosher, but speak specifically about pagan ways of sacrifices.

Sometimes waiting is the hardest part, and in today's crisis we have to practice a lot of patience. We're in the season here in Israel of "counting the Omer". God commanded Israel to count the days until Shavot and there's some interesting revelations on why. Join us for another podcast with Dr. Erez Soref as we discuss how God uses these times of waiting and how He foreshadowed the time of the Disciples waiting for the Holy Spirit to be poured out.

Anti-semitism has hit a new low. A new Danish translation of the Bible has purged the New Testament of references to Israel, removing more than 60 instances of the word “Israel” from the new edition.

What's the drive that would cause someone to do such a thing!? What's the ancient root of hatred that seeks to destroy the name of Israel?

Dr. Soref joins us for a special Podcast to discus his personal revelations into this passover season. Why did God require Israel to keep the lamb in their homes before the passover sacrifice? Discover amazing revelations in the traditional passover meal that point directly to Yeshua's death burial and resurrection.

Dr. Broshi dives into the Spirit of the Law, basically how do we approach these commands in the Torah as followers of Yeshua. Is the Sabbath relevant to us today? What was God's heart for us in making these commands and how should we look at these in the light of Yeshua's teachings. This week we dive in to the Sabbath and a biblical perspective of God's heart for this day of rest and how it applies to us today.

Here are all the references for the podcast:

Yeshua rebuking the religious leaders for miss-understanding the Sabbath (Mathew 12:9-13)

The Sabbath, Exodus 20:8-11.

God hates what has become of the Sabbath, Isaiah 1:13-14.

True Fasting and Sabbath in the eyes of God, Isaiah 58:6-13.

A Gentile which keeps the law of the Torah must die; Misneh Torah, Hilchot Melachim veMilchamot 10:9

Gentile which keeps the Sabbath must die (b. Talmud, Sanhedrin 58b; Mimonides)

Wrapping up our 7 part series on the 7 Revolutions of Rabbinic Judaism, Dr Broshi discusses the Atheistic Revolution in Rabbinic Judaism. It’s not that the Rabbinic sect denies the reality of God, but that they deny the biblical God and embrace a religion in which they don’t need God anymore. Did the Holy Spirt cease after Malachi? Is it Forbidden to say God’s name??

When the Orthodox to say they're studying Torah it's not the first 5 books of Moses, but the Rabbinic commentary on the Torah. Dr. Broshi goes deeper into the liturgical revolution of Rabbinic Judaism. Did the Torah start on the wrong chapter and verse?! Does Oral Torah fit in the story thread and flow of the bible? Dive into the differences between the Rabbinic covenant and the New Covenant of Yeshua in liturgy.

Here's a few more links to some of the references mentioned in the podcast.

b. Talmud, Menhot 29b (Moses is sent to Akiva's Yeshiva and does not understand a word of the Oral Law, he him self passed on to the Rabbis)

https://www.sefaria.org.il/Rashi_on_Genesis.2.9?lang=en

Rashi commentary on Gen. 1:1, saying the Torah should have started instead with Exodus 12:2 (Rashi just quoted another Rabbi from the Talmud). this proves that the Rabbis saw the Torah as a legal book and not as a narrative.

Almost every day we have an announcement of more closure, more restrictions, and quarantines. Panic is spreading around the globe as nations struggle to deal with this new threat. But despite the trials and tragedy the body of Messiah in Israel has an opportunity to shine brighter than before. God has not given us a spirit of fear but of POWER LOVE and a SOUND MIND!

Dr Broshi continues his series on the 7 reforms of Rabbinic Judaism. If you were to ask a jewish person if they’re “saved” they would look at you like you fell from the moon. Dr. Broshi discusses some key changes that redefined repentance as more of a political and outward change than what was spoken of by the Torah and Prophets, which is a repentance that starts from the heart. Also we discuss how Reincarnation became such a mainstream idea of God’s judgment when we die. How could Rabbinic Judaism fall so far from the Torah and prophets and adopt such clearly pagan and eastern religions practices.

Coronavirus has caused massive panic worldwide. Travel is restricted, entire countries quarantined and just recently Israel required all incoming citizens and visitors to be isolated in a 14 day quarantine, putting a complete stop on all incoming tourists. These actions have not only stoked fears in a typically unflappable country but severely damaged our tourism industry and economy. Dr Seth Postell shares with us the challenges we've seen in the land of Israel and in our ministry with this crisis, and an encouraging word of how God can use this crisis to bring the Light of God to the world.

Dr Broshi continues his series on the 7 reforms of Rabbinic Judaism. After the destruction of the Temple, Judaism experienced sweeping reformations and in effect also invented their own “New Covenant” of the Oral law. In this episode Dr. Broshi discusses how the Rabbinic reformation transformed Judaism with Greek inspired philosophy.

 A. Philosophers as Rulers: As mentioned earlier, the wise disciple (תלמיד-חכם) stood at the very top of the hierarchy of the Jewish world. Their deep knowledge of the OL gave them authority to govern the community. In other words, the most essential criterion by which a man could judge and rule was the measure of wisdom he manifested concerning the Talmud.

 B. Philosophical Methods of Learning the Oral Law: Rabbinic law and, in fact, the whole literature of the Sages, was influenced by Plato and Aristotelian philosophy, and therefore it is not surprising that the studies in yeshiva are characterized by its endless contradictions, multiple arguments, and vast discussions. The most important and influential encounter between rabbinical Judaism and Greek philosophy probably took place in Alexandria, which prepared the ground for the wisdom of the future sages.

 C. Thirteen Characteristics of Learning: The rabbis claim that the thirteen methods by which they interpreted Torah were given to Moses at Sinai. The problem with this claim is that these methods are found in the Hellenistic world. In fact, all thirteen are a duplication of the terminology used by the Greek philosophers and poets for their classical literature, written many generations after Moses and before the time of the Sages. Rabbi Hillel seems to have established the systematic interpretation of the Bible, relying on well known Greek patterns.

D. Greek Academia in the Talmudic Yeshiva: Everything mentioned above, the rabbis' rule in accordance with the Platonic model of the utopian state, governed by philosophers, the methods of learning, which is identical to the Aristotelian and Scholastic Philosophical patterns of intellectual investigation, plus the fact that the rabbis urged the study of the Talmud for its own sake (תלמוד תורה לשמה), as a philosophical and moral concept, and as an obligation which carried no other intention than the act itself —all these were done in the context of the yeshiva.

E. the Abolishment of Truth: The Talmud’s method “Shakla v’Tatria” (שקלא וטריא) recognizes that the search for truth is never a monologue and is not carried out by an argument aimed at deciding. Instead of achieving agreement, the goal of casuistry is to expand knowledge by the multiplicity of possibilities. This method is remarkably similar to the Scholastic philosophy, which deals with both casuistry and an abstract dialectic negotiation.

F. 2 Kings 23:5, which talks about king Josiah abolishing the false worship of the stars (mazal) in the temple

So Bibi took home the prize it would seem to be, but in Israel, winning the most seats doesn't guarantee victory. Today chances of building a government with these results are sadly even more remote than the last go round. Matan joins us for another special episode to discuss some of the complexities in the Israeli coalition process and how you can pray for Israel in these politically turbulent times.

Confused on why Israel is having it's 3rd elections in a year??

In this special Pod for Israel report we bring in Matan Ohana, head of our IDF soldiers ministry to help demystify the Israeli elections and inform you on how to pray for the elections happening tomorrow.

Dr Broshi continues to expound on the 7 reforms of Rabbinic Judaism. After the destruction of the Temple, Judaism experienced sweeping reformations and in effect also invented their own “New Covenant” of the Oral law. In this episode Dr. Broshi discusses how the Rabbis abolished the 3 branches of government and set up their own judicial branch where they are both lawmaker and judge.

Matt 6:1-24 - Nobody likes a showoff, in fact one of the quickest ways to get God’s quick rebuke is to give glory to yourself in a prideful show. Giving and prayer were always intended to be points of relationship with God, not bragging rights. God isn’t concerned with our good works as much as the motivation of our Heart being right. So how should we worship God through our giving and prayer?
