These 5770 Torah studies
follow a partial format as used by First Fruits of
Zion using the traditional Torah reading and readings
from the New Testament (Brit Chadasha) from the Gospels
and Book of Acts. To add Biblical enrichment content to
this format, I have chosen to use Haftorah reading
anywhere in Tanach as led by the Holy Spirit. |

5770 Torah Study #1 |
Bereisheet
“In the beginning…..”
|
|
Readings:
Genesis 1:1-6:8, Isaiah
7:1-8:4; Matthew 1-2.
|
|
Topic:
The “seed” of the woman-- The war of
the “seeds.” Understand the metaphor of the Kingdom of Light
vs. the kingdom of darkness. God had a reconciliation plan
for the Creation. A Redeemer-God Himself must pay for our
sin as evident of His sacrificial-unconditional love.
|
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
And the LORD God said unto the
serpent…. Genesis 3:15 (KJV) “And I will put enmity
between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her
seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his
heel.” |
|
Thus, we have defined in Scripture the
two “seeds.” …since then … a struggle between the “seeds”
for the soul of mankind…. Light vs. darkness --Good vs. Evil |
|
Genesis 4:1-13 KJV) These are
the offspring of the seed of Adam. Satan begins a relentless
struggle using portals of sin to enter the soul of man. The
war between the righteous and unrighteous begins… Strife
over Pleasing God! Why? --- Abel’s sacrifice was pleasing
and Cain’s not? The war between good and wicked begins in
free-willed beings---a war between darkness and
light…between sweet and bitter- An example of our need for
Torah….A plumb line to flee evil. Review of Chiastic Hebrew
Poetry -Hebrew Parallelism. |
Darkness cannot exist amongst Light.
God separated darkness from the light in the beginning on
the first day of creation. Satan was separated from God &
from God’s Kingdom. The reason are given in
Ezekiel 28:14-16 KJV and Isaiah 14:11 KJV. |
Cain was separated and marked to roam
to and fro over the creation. Innocent blood was shed and
the land cries out. Murder was not in the heart of man until
pride and convent desires found a place in man’s being
…trademarks of Satan. Who did Cain marry?
|
 |
|
HAFTORAH |
|
A consortium between Syria and Ephraim
(Samaria) are coming against the House of Judah (Isaiah
7:1-7) |
|
Isaiah 7:10-14 (KJV) A sign of
deliverance/Salvation..a maid/virgin (almaw) will conceive.
Prophetic of near and distant and yet future fulfillment!
Near ….Judah spared from the Assyrian-Ephraim consortium in
days that Isaiah’s wife conceives her second son. Distant
…Jesus is born to reconcile/save humankind. Virgin birth of
Yeshua Jesus…Yet future.. The “Assyrian” & Samarian
Palestinians will war against Israel, and God prevails for
Israel when the final battle of the “seeds” is concluded.
|
“Seed of the woman” –A distant Prophecy
known since the 4th day of Creation as was displayed in the
Hebrew Mazzaroth. Job 38:32-33 (KJV) Astronomy is
science of the celestial bodies of the Heaven. They exist
with mathematical precision. Astrology is from Babylonian
corruption of the Mazzaroth. It is zodiac fortunetelling,
witchcraft, and demonic communication.
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Matthew 1:18-25 (KJV) Remember:
The Hebraic custom of a Jewish wedding-2 parts. |
The “seed” of the Woman is Yeshua
Jesus. The Messiah is born of woman. He calls Himself the
son of man. … “for that which is conceived in her is of the
Holy Ghost.” Proof?? Proof is in the Genealogy of Yeshua
Jesus as presented in the Gospel of Matthew 1:1-17
(KJV).
|
|
 |
|
Matthew 1:1- 17 Jesus is the only
Begotten Son of the Father. Begotten! Not created! God from
God. |
|
Hebrews 1:1-3 KJV God has a perfect
Plan . |

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT

from our wicked ways? Matthew 3:1-12 (KJV) What is
John the Baptist’s message? |
|
Matthew 4:12-17 (KJV) What is
Yeshua Jesus’ message? Repentance leads to Restoration. An
absolutely just and righteous God. |
|
His Restoration plan
can stand in any court of law. How does God answer the
question: Is man’s heart innately wicked? Blame-shifting as
did Adam and Eve. By the millennial reign of Christ!...Satan
bound a 1000 years. Natural man’s heart is drawn to
wickedness. |

5770 Torah Study #3 |
|
|
Readings:
Genesis12:1-17:27; Judges
6:1-40; Matthew 5-7 (KJV).
|
|
Topic:
God said to Abraham “go out.” We are to
“go out” and bring in the Kingdom. We have a personal God
–He interacts with us as Kingdom heirs. His Holy Spirit
dwells within us as a “still soft voice.” He desires our
fellowship as a people unto Himself- He provided access by a
narrow pathway….Yeshua Jesus. Abba Father talks to you so
you can adjust your walk (halacha) to reflect His WORD.
Abraham heard God. |
|
How do we hear from God? ....What
voices can we Hear? |
Self…flesh;
edify self, self-esteem, pride, self importance.
Adversary…
promotes bitter-root actions, double-mindedness,
confusion.
God.. Edifies God,
God’s Kingdom, preservation/cleaning of your Temple,
makes you into the image of Jesus.
|
How does God speak to you?
Audible voice..rare;
Still soft voice..common;
Circumstances …frequent;
Scripture verses….
Frequent; Scriptures from Torah/Parasha study/Daily
devotional/ Daily Bible studies/
Rhema; Visions/dreams/
Christophanies …sometimes;
Word of Knowledge ….through a friend. ..on
occasion; Angels…rare;
-----God deals with us in covenants and His voice is
edifying. |
|
Your Halacha will reflect which voice
is talking to you? You shall be known by your fruits…A
“light” unto the world. Chastisement will mold you into the
image of Christ. Be an Overcomer/Heir/Bride/Elder/Royal
priesthood. We are to be an integral part of God’s Kingdom.
We are not to be passive , innocent by-standers. Be active
in Kingdom work. |
|
Lessons: |
|

worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for
thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast

animal parts. |
|
Genesis 15:17-18 (KJV) Where is
Abram? A unconditional-unilateral covenant. Not dependent

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
The Scriptures speak to us through the
Words of Yeshua Jesus.

after you as the sparrows of the air and lilies of the
field. Ask not amiss (James 4:3 (KJV) |

Great work needs to be done for those that are “lost” on the
broad road. Today a worldwide Church ecumenical movement |

false prophets/teachers/preachers. Yeshua Jesus’ main end
time. concern -Matthew 24. |
|
Matthew 7:21-23
(KJV) Is your salvation assured? Jesus is speaking to
Christians in the Church!
These passages give the best definition of “Christian
religion” as compared to a personal/heart sincere
relationship with Yeshua Jesus..the narrow pathway. “I never
knew you.” Strive to achieve a wholeness of your salvation.
Recognize-Repent-Renounce-Release-Restore-Resist |
Romans 3:22-25 (KJV) 22 Even
the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus
Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for
there is no difference: 23 For all have sinned, and come
short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by
his grace through the redemption that is in Christ
Jesus: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation
through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness
for the remission of sins that are past, through the
forbearance of God;
|

verses are the meat, the sustenance of Jesus’ message to us.

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send
forth labourers into his harvest.” |
|

5770 Torah Study #4 |
|
|
Readings:
Genesis 18:1-22:24; 1 Samuel 15:1-46; Matthew 8-10
|
|
Topic:
Jesus appeared to destroy
the works of the devil. Perverted wickedness is judged with
God’s vengeance even before the final White Throne Judgment
as in the evil of days of Noah …Sodom and Gomorrah. God’s
mercy many times rescues His people (Israelites) and fallen
believers and repentant sinners. Abba desires that none be
lost but all mankind find salvation.
|
1 John 3:8 (KJV) “He that
committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth
from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was
manifested, that he might destroy the works of the
devil.”
|
|
Avoid sin portals ..else wise your ship
will sink. |

Lessons: |

TORAH |
|
Today’s reading:
Abraham and Lot separate. |
|
Background introduction to study: The
name 'Dead Sea' is actually a kinder, gentler translation
from the Hebrew name 'Yam ha Maved', which means, 'Killer
Sea'. |
|
 |
|
The Dead Sea is 1,385 ft below sea
level & its waters are 33.7% salinity; Salt Lake ~ 7 %
(4,200 miles above sea level); Ocean ~ 3.5 %; salinity of
Human body 0.91%. |
|
An evil Pentapolis : The five (5)
“Cities of the Plain”-Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboim, and
Bela (Zoar). These were cities along the fertile plains of
the Jordan River. Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboim were
destroyed by fire and brimstone from Heaven. Lot fled to
Zoar. |
|
Josephas (TWoJ book 4 chapter 8) “This
country of old was a most happy land, both for its fruits it
bore and the riches of its cities, although it is now all
burnt up.” |
|
Why did God Judge
these Plain cities? |
|
Josephas describes the inhabitants (JA
1:194-195) as “proud of their numbers and extent of their
wealth,” “insolent” (overbearing, arrogant, boldly
disrespectful, contemptuous) , impious to the divinity (
disrespectful of God), “that they no more remembered the
benefits that they received from Him” (Short Spiritual
memory), avoided contact with others (cultish) - hated
foreigners- indignant to strangers. |
|
Philo of Alexandria describes the
spiritual/social/moral attitude of these Plain cities
people: sinful, gluttony, lewdness, unquenchable satiety,
fleshly like cattle, with forbidden forms of sexual
behaviors, adultery, homosexuality, transvestites in lavish
dress of a voluptuous nature, plagued by infertility.
Corrupting the whole of mankind with degeneration of their
souls. |
|
Why did God Judge these Plain cities?
Man’s heart was continually evil with pride, lust of the
flesh and sexual perversions. |
|
Genesis 19:1-13 (KJV) All their
lustful evil was evident to the Lord and He brought His
judgment upon the lustful and the city. |
|
Genesis 19:14-26 (KJV) A
righteous remnant is saved through God’s Wrath. When leaving
Sodom some will look back to their desirous ways of the
flesh. |
|
 |
 |
|
HAFTORAH |
|
Introduction: 1 Samuel 15:1-3 (KJV) |
|
1 Samuel 15:13-24 (KJV) Do we
feel justified bending the Commandments of the Lord?
Obedience is better than sacrifice. King Saul’s sin portal
was witchcraft and Idolatry. He feared man more than God.
|
|
Evil spirits look for an open portal.
Disobedience invites the cursers of the Lord (Deuteronomy
28:15-68 (KJV) |
|
Can a demon or Satan
enter a human being? A Christian? |
- 1st demons were cast out
occurred in a synagogue … Mark 1:21-27 (KJV)
- God can turn you over to
the devourer …Job
- Remember Cain “sin lieth at
the door. And to desire, and to rule in you.” (Genesis
4:7 Tisch-Interlinear Hebrew)
- Take people captive 2
Timothy 2:26 (KJV)
- Send them evil spirits 1
Samuel 16:14; 1 Kings 22:19-23 (intro. v. 6-8)
- Satan can enter you John
13:26-27 (intro. 21)
- Satan can fill your heart
Acts 5:3 (KJV)

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Matthew 8-10 –
The physical & spiritual healings of Yeshua Jesus. |
|
Matthew 8:28-34 (KJV) Where did
the demons go? Into unclean animals! Where is the abode of
the demons? |
|

|
|
Considerations of God’s Judgment of
Sodom –Gomorrah: Today: Where is England in God’s eyes?
Today: Where is America in God’s eyes? |
|
LORD heal our land …
A Time for Repentance |
|
2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV) If my
people, which are called by my name, shall humble
themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their
wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive
their sin, and will heal their land. |

brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and
the opening of the prison to them that are bound; (2)
To proclaim the acceptable year of
the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to
comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn
in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of
joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit

Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your
fear, and let him be your dread. And he shall be for a
sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock

Genesis 25:19-28:9;
Ezekiel 29:1-6; Matthew 13-14. |
Generations of man-
תּוֹלְדוֹת - at creation (Genesis 2:4)
|
|
How did we lose the vav? The first Adam
brought sin into the creation-the serpent beguiled Eve. In
the Hebrew language the vav is missing when the generation
of the offspring since Adam are discussed and the second vav
did not return in the Hebrew language in the spelling of
generations (toldot ) until the generation prophetic of
Messiah....restored by genealogy of Jesus. Ruth 4:18
(KJV) Now these are the generations- תּוֹלְדוֹת of
Pharez. Since Adam/Eve a struggle of mankind between the
flesh and spirit symbolic of the Kingdom struggle with sin.
. |
1Cor. 15:45-49
(KJV) And so it is written, The first man Adam was
made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening
spirit. Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual,
but that which is natural; and afterward that which is
spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the
second man is the Lord from heaven.

Topic:God
hates sin. Yet sin dwells within the Creation. Egypt is our
testing ground. God will select between the wheat and tares
..you choose between wide or narrow path. |
|
Habakkuk 1:13 (KJV) Thou art of
purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on
iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal
treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked
devoureth the man that is more righteous than he? |

Genesis 25:27-34 (KJV)
Birthright is very important to the Hebrew/Jewish male!
Birthright is very important to God! V. 6 .. Esau is Edom (Genesis
36:8 (KJV). Who are the sons of Esau? - The Edomites
(Idumaeans) who reside in Jordan and their genealogy goes
into the Roman emperors and into European royalty. |

the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to
generation." Amalek was the very first group to attack the
freed Israelite slaves in wilderness (Ex. 17:8-16; Deu.
25:17). (Num. 24:20) |

he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said,
Amalek was the first of the nations; but his latter end
shall be that he perish for ever.
|
Obadiah 1:2-4 (KJV) Behold,
I have made thee (Edom) small among the heathen: thou
art greatly despised. The pride of thine heart hath
deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the
rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart,
Who shall bring me down to the ground? Though thou exalt
thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among
the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the
LORD.
|
Joel 3:19-20 (KJV) Egypt

Who are the Fish? They are
apostate Christians whose HALACHA is no longer with the

|
1Cor. 10:20-21 (KJV) But I
say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they
sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not
that ye should have fellowship with devils. Ye cannot
drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye
cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the
table of devils.

And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried
with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in
the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together
unto the supper of the great God; (18) That ye may eat
the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the
flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of
them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both
free and bond, both small and great.
Revelation 19:19-21 (KJV) And I saw the beast,
and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered
together to make war against him that sat on the horse,
and against his army. And the beast was taken, and with
him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him,
with which he deceived them that had received the mark
of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These
both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with
brimstone. And the remnant were slain with the sword of
him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out
of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their
flesh.

Matthew 15:21-28 (KJV) Let’s
examine Jesus’ Ministry. |
John 1:11 (KJV) He came unto
his own, and his own received him not.
Romans 1:16 (KJV) For I am not
ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of
God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the
Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Matthew 10:5-8 (KJV)
These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them,
saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into
any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: But go rather
to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And as ye go,
preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal
the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out
devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
John 10:15-16 (KJV) As
the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I
lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have,
which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and
they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold,
and one shepherd.
|
|
Concern
for the “Lost Sheep/Tribes” … |
John 7:34-35 (KJV) Ye shall
seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither
ye cannot come. Then said the Jews among themselves,
Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he
go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the
Gentiles?
James 1:1 (KJ V) James, a servant of
God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes
which are scattered abroad, greeting.
1 Peter 1:1 (KJV) Peter,
an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered
throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and
Bithynia,
|
|
1 Peter 2:5-10 (KJV)
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual
house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices,
acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Wherefore also it is
contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief
corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him
shall not be confounded. Unto you therefore which believe he
is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone
which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of
the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence,
even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient:
whereunto also they were appointed. But ye are a chosen
generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar
people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who
hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people
of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained
mercy. |

Matthew 16:13-19 (KJV) Peter you
got it!...I am the Rock of the Whole of the Scriptures. The
Church is built upon Yeshua Jesus not Peter! |

Ephesians 2:19-20 (KJV) Now
therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but
fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of
God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and

Topic:
Divine Grace and Life is our perfection in Christ as we are
led by the Holy Spirit to be righteous and unencumbered
before God. Forgive one another. |
|
It’s a struggle: God with
sinners. Us with our natural self against God’s Spirit. Get
rid of bitter roots. |
 |
|
Mark 11:25-26 (KJV) And when ye
stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that
your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your
trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your
Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. |
|
Casting doubt on the Truth of Mark
11:25-26 (KJV). The discrediting of the Word of God .But…but
those are not Jesus’ Words! Quoted from the NIV, RSV,
NASB: “The most reliable early manuscripts (codex
Siniatus & Vaticanus) and other ancient witnesses do not
have Mark 16:9-20” …..However, by 2 witnesses, The
Holy Spirit’s contests the deletion as it found in Matthew
6:14-15 (NIV) “ For if you forgive men when they sin
against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15
But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will
not forgive your sins.” Is someone
tinkering with God's Word? |
|
Interestingly, in the mid 2nt
century (~150 AD) both Irenaeus and Hypolatus quote Mark
16:9-20. The Greek Textus Receptus is the older manuscript
not the codex Vaticanus and Siniatus. |

TORAH |
Genesis 27:41 (KJV) “And
Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his
father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days
of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay
my brother Jacob.” As Jacob leaves Laban and prepares to
meet Esau. He remembers Esau’s hatred toward him.
|
|
Genesis 32:1-12 (KJV) What is
the issue facing Jacob? A dysfunctional family with
unforgiveness and no brotherly love. They are preparing to
meet face to face. Does God provide angels when you have
contention and strife? Esau is portrayed as an adversary
coming against Israel (Jacob’s new name)….. Prophetic??
|
|
How does Jacob prepare for an
engagement battle? ……2 camps ..Wisdom of Jacob? A Wisdom of
God? Prophetic of tribes of Israel. |
|
Jacob had to deal with God first before
dealing with Esau!...In preparation for warfare... first get
things right with God. |

HAFTORAH |
Hosea 1:1-2:4 (KJV) Hosea takes
an adulterous wife portraying what? Spiritual warfare!
The “seeds” are struggling for the soul of Humankind! Abba
Father has a plan and reveals it it the Book of Hosea!
|
|
Prophetic
meaning Hebrew names: |
Hosea- Salvation; God is
salvation; causing to save.
Gomer- completion; perfection; conclusion;
ripeness of consummated wickedness.
|
|
Prophetic
meaning Hebrew names of children: |
Son-Jezereel – to sow; to
scatter; God sows.
Daugter - Lo-Ruhamah –not having mercy; not
pitied;
Son –Lo-Ammi – Not my people; not of my people.
|
|
Hebrew prefex “Lo” means “no or not.”
Restoration: Hosea 2:1 (KJV) ..God’s example of the
meaning of forgiveness. …The “Lo” is removed. |
|
In the Book of Hosea God uses metaphors
to show His Restoration Plan by dispersing/scattering the
Northern Kingdom (Ephraim)….. Gomer- the adulterous wife
(Idolatrous Israel) returns to her husband. (Hosea
1:10-11; 2:14-23; 3:4-5; 11:10-11; 14:4-7 (KJV) |

Hosea 14:8 (KJV) "Ephraim shall
say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard
him, and observed him: I am like a green fir tree. From me

God’s forgiveness is His righteous
Justification ….. |
|
Isaiah 1:18 (KJV) "Come now, and
let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be
as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be
red like crimson, they shall be as wool." |
|
What is your level of
forgiveness of a brother/sister? …Conditional or
unconditional? |
 |
|
 |
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Matthew 18:21-35 (KJV) Peter's
question: Is there a limit to forgiveness… Remember
...Vengeance is mine saith the Lord.. |
“ten thousand talents”.. An
immeasurable amount of currency!
Solomon received 666 gold talents a year (2 Chr. 10:13)
A talent of silver in Israel weighed about 100 pounds. A
talent of gold in Israel weighed about 200 pounds.
The purchasing power of 10,000 talents in 2009 US money with
silver @ $18.00/oz ($29,000) and gold @ $1,100/oz) ($35
million) ….. |
|
We forgive because we have been
forgiven by God, and no offence against us can remotely
compare with the incalculable amount we have been forgiven
by the price of Yeshua Jesus’ death. The Bride price was
paid by the Father. |
|
Propitiation: Why was such a large
price required to free us from debt (bondage). Galatians
2:21 (KJV) |
|
Considering God’s
provision for forgiveness ---Can you not forgive your
brother his pence’s (denarii).. |
How can I forgive when it hurts so
much?
LORD”S PRAYER: Matthew 6:12 (KJV) “And forgive us our
debts, as we forgive our debtors.” |

Little children forgive one
another as our heavenly Father has forgiven you. |

branch amongst the hostile nations. He is that strong arm
sent into the Gentile world to bring “Abraham’s seed” back

TORAH |
|
Genesis 37:1-11 (KJV)
Joseph, a “dreamer,” and interpreter of dreams. He
interpreted the dreams of the butler, the baker & the
pharaoh of Egypt. What does Joseph’s dreams mean? Are they
prophetic? Did Joseph’s Dream come to past? |

|
|
Joseph’s Prophecy by Moses
Deuteronomy 33:17 (KJV) "His glory is like the firstling
of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of
unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the
ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of
Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh." |
|
Jacob’s Prophecy for Joseph is
fulfilled in his mixed gentile-Hebrew sons! Genesis
48:19-21 (KJV) |
Genesis 48:19-21 (KJV) "And
his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know
it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be
great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater
than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of
nations. (20) And he blessed them that day, saying, In
thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as
Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before
Manasseh. (21) And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I
die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto
the land of your fathers."
|
|
Prophecy of Jacob to Joseph….
Prosperity amongst the nations! |
Genesis 49:22-26 (KJV) "Joseph
is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well;
whose branches run over the wall: (23) The archers have
sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him: (24)
But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands
were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of
Jacob; (from thence is the shepherd, the stone of
Israel:) (25) Even by the God of thy father, who shall
help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee
with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep
that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the
womb: (26) The blessings of thy father have prevailed
above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost
bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the
head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that
was separate from his brethren."
|
|
but How?.....“ and his seed shall
become a multitude of nations.” ..scattered & preserved… |
|
A Hebrew disowned by his brothers
in a gentile world. But remember: |
Hosea 1:4 Son-Jezreel – to
sow; to scatter; God sows.
Amos 9:9 (KJV) For, lo, I
will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among
all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet

is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the
prophets which were before you."
Matthew 6:19-21 (KJV)” Lay not up for yourselves
treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt,
and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up
for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth
nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break
through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there
will your heart be also.”

|
Readings:
Genesis 41:1-44:17; 2 Samuel
12:1-25; Matthew 22-23.
|
|
TOPIC:
Righteous living requires moral and spiritual
accountability …be intellectually honest in your walk. You
are always combating the self. Your sins bring self
destruction and have a consequence. God’s justice prevails
even when you are confident in your deception. “At the end”
you face total accountability to God. Repent so He doesn’t
see your sin. God show no partiality to sinners. Even King
David the “man after the Lord’s Own Heart” was judged and
found guilty. |
|
TORAH |
|
Introduction: Genesis 42:1-4 (KJV)
A great famine was over all the world- A rumor of
sustenance, provisions in Egypt. Jacob says to his sons:
fetch corn that we may live & not die. |
|
Genesis 42:7-24 (KJV) Joseph
recognized his brethren, but they knew him not! Just as
Joseph was cast into a pit- so also -were his brothers put
in an Egyptian prison for 3 days. |
|
They bear the guilt of their
sin against Joseph (verse 21-23).They remembered! It is very
difficult to forget your sin (s). |
 |
|
Why did Joseph choose Simeon to be held
an Egyptian hostage? |
 |
|
HAFTORAH |
|
2 Samuel 12:1-15 (KJV)
King David found favor in the eyes of God. Does God show
partiality to persons? |
 |
|
King David had a generational
curse….lust of the eyes and sexual impulsiveness….Psalm
51:5 (KJV) “Behold, I was
shapen in iniquity;
and in sin did my mother
conceive me.”
Observe replicating Hebraic Chiastic
structure in Psalm 51:5. Do you see the generational curse? |
King David had 9+ wives and many
concubines- He committed adultery with Bathsheba. His son
Amnon rapes Tamar, his daughter. Absalom went in to his
father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.
King Solomon has 700 wives and 300 concubines. |
|
continuing ...2 Samuel 12:1-15
(KJV)…You cannot escape your sin. God knows even your
thoughts. King David could not control the lust of the eyes
and the flesh. He despised the Commandments of the Lord!
(Thou shall not commit adultery or murder.) |
|
God sent Nathan, the prophet,
to reveal the breach in David’s life. |
 |
|
Lord have mercy, cleanse me, forgive,
restore, deliver, keep me meek and humble-give me a clean
heart….Psalm 51 |

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Matthew 23:1-14 (KJV) Jesus
returns to the Temple for Passover. The Lamb of God is
examined by the religious leaders for blemishes. Yeshua
Jesus best defies religion vs. a personal relationship with
the Father in speaking to the people. These judgmental
religious leaders sit in Moses seat. They know Torah but put
man’s dogma around the Commandments and do contrary to the
Word of God. |
|
These ministers of God can be deceptive
and misleading. You must have discernment.. Know the
Scriptures….God’s WORD. In these end times, beware of false
teachers and preachers. They are as a sheep in wolves
clothes. |
Neon
Lights…. 8 Woes against Pharisees….
Ye
hypocrites
|
1. They shut-up the Kingdom of
Heaven
2. They mesmerize and entice widows with long religious
prayers.
3 The search diligently to proselytize your religious
viewpoints and lead you to hell.
4. They make usury of the Temple for profit.
5. They place emphasis on collecting tithes not on
Torah; they lacking judgment, mercy and faith.
6. They appear “religious” on the outside but inside you
are extortionists who live in excess.
7. They are full of pride but manifest dead bones
inside.
8. They killed the prophets who were sent to fill the
Torah breaches; yet they decorate their tombs.
|
|
Jesus condemns the Scribes and
Pharisees: … Ye hypocrites |
Matthew 23:33
(KJV) Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can
ye escape the damnation of hell?
John 8:44 (KJV) Ye are of your father the devil,
and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a
murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth,
because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a
lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the
father of it.
|
|
God knows the deception of your heart.
Sins haunt the believer. What is done in secrecy will come
to light. Sin places you under the curses of the Torah. (Deuteronomy
28:15-68 (KJV) |
Matthew 15:18-19 (KJV) But
those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth
from the heart; and they defile the man. For out of the
heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries,
fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
|
|
Distinguish between the religion of the
Pharisees & Scribes and reality of being Christ-like. |
John 6:27(KJV)
Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for
that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which
the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the
Father sealed.

TORAH |
Agency defined: From Jewish law
of Agency (Talmud : Ned. 72b; Kidd. 41b)
“ An agent is regarded as the person himself. ” An agent
acts for one in higher authority with the full authority
of the one who sent him (Principle person); any act
committed by a duly appointed agent is regarded as
having been committed by the principle person, who
therefore, bears full responsibility on the part of the
agent.”
|
|
Moses was the earthly representative of
God. God’s Agents are to be busy about doing the Master’s
work. As an agent, you have full power & all authority of
the person who sent you. |

Shaddai the God of the dead or living? (Matthew 22:31-32
(KJV) ..... “I AM” .…… Eternal!

9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent,

from heaven.”
|
|
Put on the whole armor of God, that ye
may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For
we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the
darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high
places. Ephesians 6:10-18 (KJV). |

answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say
unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he
seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth,
these also doeth the Son likewise. For the Father loveth
the Son, and sheweth him (the Son) all things that
himself (God the Father) doeth: and he (God the Father)
will shew him (Jesus) greater works than these, that
ye may marvel."

can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one,
and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and
despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” (the
world—flesh)!!
|
|
Father God prevails for those whom
serve Him. As the Body of Christ, let us link our shields
and stand on the WORD. Our power is in unity! |
Luke 10:19 (KJV) Behold,
I give unto you power to tread on serpents and
scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and
nothing shall by any means hurt you.
|
Is there a demonic strongman holding
you against your free-will -so that you cannot choose
Salvation and have a complete relationship with the Father

who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" |

|
|
Readings:
Exodus 10:1-13:6; Jeremiah
23:1-15; Mark 4-5 |
|
TOPIC: Understanding the
struggle between light vs. darkness. War of Gods/War in You!
|
|
Before the foundations of the creation,
our Creator Father knew that created-beings –given
free-will- would struggle with self-will. Love establishes
obedience not rebellion. “If ye love me, keep my
commandments.” (John 14:15) |
|
John 8:12 Then spake
Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall
have the light of life.
1 John 1:5 (KJV) This then is the message which we
have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light,
and in him is no darkness at all. |
 |
|
TORAH |
|
Exodus 10:21-29 (KJV) Darkness
over all of the land corresponds to the Lord’s wrath of
Revelation (4th trumpet & 5th vial). War is against which
god(s) of Egypt? The Egyptians differentiated among the
aspects of their gods-they had several sun gods: Khepri for
the rising sun, Ra, at noon and Atum at the setting. Most
all the Pagan religions had their sun gods. They worship the
elements of nature. |
|
To understand the battle between light
and darkness, you need to review and understand Chiastic
Hebrew poetry using Hebrew parallelism. |
|
 |
|
 |
|
Isaiah 5:20 (KJV) Woe unto them
that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for
light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet,
and sweet for bitter! |
|
Darkness is the pit of hell! |
Job 10:19-22 (KJV) I should
have been as though I had not been; I should have been
carried from the womb to the grave. Are not my days few?
cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a
little, Before I go whence I shall not return, even to
the land of darkness and the shadow of death; A land of
darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of
death, without any order, and where the light is as
darkness.
|
When did darkness first appear in the
Scriptures?
Genesis 1:2 -3 (KJV) A paar zman .. A creation spiritual
gap! |
Genesis 1:2 -3 (KJV) And the
earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon
the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved.
|
 |
|
HAFTORAH |
|
How does darkness come upon a People?
It starts in the Church leadership! |
|
Jeremiah 23:1-15 (KJV) Apostasy
starts at the pulpit. Infusion of Greco-Roman –pagan thought
into the 1st century Church. The 17- 18th Century heralds
German “higher critics.” Seminary schools have been
brainwashed by man’s higher intellect and deception by the
advesary! Let us put it in computer language!.... GIGO
(garbage in /garbage out)! |
|
Apostasy is seen in our Church
history…History of 7 Churches of Revelation. |
|
What does the apostle Peter say?(2
Peter 2:1-3 (KJV) |
|
 |
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT

|
Mark 4:21-25 (KJV) A
parable. Is there one message here? Looks like alphabet
soup! Light-secret(s)- “measured mete”-give to the “hath”
but not to the “hath nots?” |
 |
|
Mark 4:21 “And he said unto
them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under
a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?” Rhetorical pun…
How do you treat/manifest your Light of Christ-in
you?......are you a “hath” or “hath not.” |
Psalm 18:28 (KJV) For thou
wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my
darkness.
Psalm 27:1 (KJV) The LORD is my light and my
salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength
of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
|
Mar 4:22 “ For there is nothing
hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing
kept secret, but that it should come abroad.” Religion or a
personal relationship…God knows. ...as He may say “I never
knew you” (Matthew 7:23). God’s presence shall be evident in
your life!
|
Psalm 43:3 O
send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let
them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy
tabernacles.
|
|
Mark 4:23 “If any man have ears
to hear, let him” |
|
Mark 4:24 “And he said unto
them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it
shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more
be given.” What is you measuring rod or plumb line to mete
against? |
Psalm 119:105
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my
path.
Psalm 119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth
light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
|
|
Mark 4:25 “For
he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not,
from him shall be taken even that which he hath. Need a
clue?”This is your parable of your light! Do you understand
it? |
Psalm 112:4
Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he
is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
Proverb 13:9 The light of the righteous rejoiceth:
but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
|
|
If any man have ears to
hear, let him hear…neon lights. Faith comes by hearing and
hearing by The Word of God. (Romans 10:17) |
What is your Halacha?

Paul’s Commission is our commission...Mandate for the Body

To open their eyes (eyes of people of the nations),
and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the
power of Satan unto God, that they may receive
forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which
are sanctified by faith that is in me.
|
|
Matthew 5:14-16
(KJV)14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is
set on an hill cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a
candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and
it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16 Let your
light so shine before men, that they may see your good
works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. |

Moses left Egypt with Israelites of the
12 tribes –men (20 years and upward that were able to go to
war) & their wives, unmarried women, children, elderly and a
mixed multitude of Egyptians (the sojourner amongst them). |
Exodus 17:1-7 (KJV) They became
a murmuring-grumbling lot. It was Moses & Aaron vs. 3
million stiff-necked Jews? “You want to kill us and our
children of thirst” We need go back to Egypt!
Examine their track record: Exodus 15:24; 16:2-3.
|
|
How often are you driven by passion to
return to Egypt? To the ways of your flesh and lust! |
|
Who is the ROCK? What flows
from the ROCK? Yeshua is Salvation –our ROCK. Our Rock? (1Cor.
10:1-6). |
 |
|
The Rock is The Right Hand of the Lord!
Where else in the today’s Torah is there salvation through
water by God’s Right Hand? Exodus 14:10-14 (KJV)
|
|
Where else in the Torah is there water
from the Rock? The Rock is prophetic! |
|
Numbers 20:2-13 (KJV) Anger is
never your solution in a problem. Moses’ fate..Deuteronomy
32:48-51 (KJV). |
Deu 34:7 And Moses was an hundred
and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim,
nor his natural force abated.
|
|
Prophetically: the Rock will not be
smitten twice. Speak to the rock for living water for the
Jew “Baruch Haba B’Shem Adonai” |

5770 Torah Study #17 |
|
|
Readings:
Exodus 18:1-20:26, Ezra
3:1-5, Nehemiah 8:8-18, Mark 7-8.
|
|
TOPIC: The Commandments
are instructions unto righteous on how to please God and
stay in His presence. To the unbeliever, the wicked & the
whoremonger, they are meaningless words. |
|
The Right Hand of God is the
WORD from Mt Sinai. John 1:1-5 (KJV)..Darkness
comprehends it not. Romans 7:12 (KJV) Wherefore the
law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
|
 |
|
How do we get desensitized to God’s
WORD? How are people, a nation or nations indoctrinated and
assimilated into corrupt beliefs. |
|
|
|
TORAH |
|
Exodus 19:14-19 (KJV) Are we
prepared for the 3rd day?? The time is short!- God's 6000
year plan. |
|
The call to revival is one to
clean-up the Bride/Church. How can a Bride amidst her idols
be clean wearing pagan customs & traditions?....Awake! |
 |
|
How should the Bride present
herself to the Bridegroom? She should be perfect as is the
chosen red heifer. a Spotless for Messiah Yeshua Jesus. |
 |
|
Hear the thunder and call of the
Shofar… see the lightening & fire of God! AWAKE…Hear (Shema)
God’s Voice. |
|
Return to the Faith once
delivered to the Saints. Is your bridal wear the feasts of
man or the Feasts of the Lord (Lev. 23)? You cannot
serve God and eat at the table of devils. |
|
Exodus 20:1-23 (KJV)
“These Commandments of God are too harsh on our ears….”
Moses you speak to God on our behalf. They could not escape
their religious Egyptian indoctrination.
|
 |
 |
|
HAFTORAH |
|
Ezra 3:1-5 (KJV) In 536 BC a
faithful remnant of Jews under Zerubabbel left Babylon and
returned to Jerusalem. Of six million only 42,300 returned
from out of Babylon (Egypt)…<1%. ---If their Babylonian
numbers were 3 million then only 1.5% returned. Note
most Jews stayed in Babylon. In 722 BC the Northern Tribes
were dispersed ....“Lost 10 tribes” |
|
Failure to leave the plush
life in Babylon accounts for the “lost 12 tribes” |
 |
|
There were 3 Biblical re-gatherings to
Judea from Babylon. |
#1 ..536
BC…The returning of a faithful remnant under Zerubabbel
.
#2.. 457 BC --Ezra
returns with 1837 males from sons of 12 families. ..
plus Levites (Ezra 8:1-20 (KJV)
# 3… 444 BC
---Nehemiah returns with exiles ..(Nehemiah 2:1-11)
|
|
Nehemiah 8:8-18 (KJV) The
remnant of Zerubabbel were Jews eager to return home ..They
knew God’s Word and kept His Feasts. Under Nehemiah they
were over 162 years since their Babylonian captivity in 606
BC. They lived in the cities of Judea and many were without
Torah knowledge. They were Babylonianized in the Aramaic
language. example..names of Hebrew months! |
|
Ezra found a Torah scroll and read
Torah from morning to mid day on 1st of Tishri? What Feast
day…days?? They had left pagan customs & feast traditions to
rediscover the fullness of the Feasts of the Lord! |
|
|
|
 |
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Mark 7:1-9 (KJV) What is the
Oral Torah? (Mishnah) What are the traditions of the elders?
Your doctrine has become the commandments of men. Beyond the
Commandments of God’s Torah, you have imposed the traditions
of man. You hypocrites.. you reject the Commandments of God!
The traditions of men are Church History. |
|
Today, the Church is
embellished in religiosity. …..….THINK! |
|
….THINK! |
|
Are we to be content with Church dogma
or God’s Word? Do we have the Faith once delivered to the
saints? Has Church dogma incorporated the traditions of the
Pagans…yes or no?? |
|
When did it start? Ante
Nicene fathers incorporated Alexandrian thought into the
infant Church.. The Church was feeding on polluted milk. The
snow ball begins…. .Nicolaitans.. Constantine….Church of
Rome…...Gnostics …man’s higher critical thought…… the New
and Revised Bible Versions. Satan is the great deceiver; he
mimics God’s actions … Feast of man vs. Feasts of the Lord!
|
|
THINK |
Who tried to thwart the genealogy of
Jesus?
Who is behind infiltrating the Church & deceiving
Christians?
Who puts stumbling blocks in believer’s path to impede their
obedience & fellowship with God? |
2 Thessalonians 3:6 (KJV) Now we
command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother
that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition
which he received of us.
2 Thessalonians 2:15 (KJV) Therefore, brethren, stand
fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught,
whether by word, or our epistle.
|
|
Short spiritual memory: Exodus 19:8
(KJV) And all the people answered together, and said, All
that the LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses returned the
words of the people unto the LORD. |
|
 |
|
Return to your First
love. Keep the traditions of men out of My Church! |

Readings:
Exodus 21:-24:18; Daniel
10:1-21; Mark 9. |
|
TOPIC:
The Holy Spirit presents Jesus
as the Goal of OT scriptures, being revealed in the NT where
the “mysteries” of Christ’s Gospel of Salvation to life not
death is given to both Jew and Gentile. The WORD became
flesh and dwelt amongst us. Jesus’ concealed agency is in
the Tanach |
2 Corinthians 4:3-4 (KJV) 3
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are
lost: 4 In whom the god of this world (Satan) hath
blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the
light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image
of God, should shine unto them.
|
|

HAFTORAH |
|
Daniel 10:1-11 (KJV) What about
this man? What identifies His deity? His Awesome nature…
|
|
Daniel call Him “Lord.” Mouth of the
Lord … “voice of the multitudes;” “and his voice as the
sound of many waters.”…….Remez |
|
Revelation 1:10-18 (KJV)…great
voice, the sound of many waters; one like unto the Son of
man; with a golden girdl ; hairs were white as snow; his
eyes were as a flame of fire; feet like unto fine brass;
mouth went a sharp two edged sword; his countenance was as
the sun shineth; I fell at his feet as dead. |
|
Now what now jumps off the pages of
Daniel 10:1-11 (KJV)? Gold Belt of Truth….God’s WORD; Beryl
….Holiness attire; Shekinah glow …Light of the World… deity
of GOD; Judgmental eyes ..will pierce your soul; Arm/feet
Brass…again judgment of you walk (Halacha); Voice..many
waters… Comfort of Hebrew language |

CHADASHA) |
|
Mark 9:2-13 (KJV) A glimpse of a
celestial staff meeting!Who are the two witnesses in Book of
Revelation? Scripture interprets scripture! Whose Miracles ..Rev
11:17. |
|
Yeshua Jesus in His
Shekinah. |
|
Now a test….for you! ….Who is
the Mighty Angel in Revelation 10:1-3 (KJV) |
 |
Now back to Elijah ..Elijah the
Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead.(1 kings
17:1)
“Tishbite means “stranger” "Elijah the stranger from among
the strangers in Gilead.“ A Raptured Gentile! |
|
Jesus speaks of Elijah…1st or 2nd
coming? |
Matthew 11:13-14 (KJV) For
all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And
if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to
come.
|
|
The angel’s told Zechariah of his son,
John: “And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of
Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,
and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready
a people prepared for the Lord.” (Luke 1:17 KJV) |
|
Matthew 17:10-13 (KJV) And his
disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that
Elias must first come? And Jesus answered and said unto
them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they
knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed.
Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the
disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the
Baptist. |
|
Jesus speaks of Elijah… 2nd coming? |
Malachi 4:5-6 (KJV)
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the
coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he
shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and
the heart of the children to their fathers, lest (that
not) I come and smite the earth with a curse.

Soon….God Wrath is
coming upon an evil world …Book of Revelation
