You shall not be afraid of them but you shall remember what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt, the great trials that your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out. So will the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
Deuteronomy 7:18-19 ESV
Miracles aren’t just to convince unbelievers or to relieve someone from suffering. They are often done so that both the faithful and the unbeliever will know God’s character.
The name of this week's #torah portion, Ekev, means "because" ("Because you listen...") Here's a list of Apostolic passages to study alongside Parsha #ekev (#deuteronomy 7:12-11:25), plus links to related commentary and video: https://www.americantorah.com/....2021/01/22/parsha-ei
One thing that pops up from time to time is that we have the OT in Hebrew and the NT in Greek and that is by God's design. Essentially, trying to solidify that anything associated with anything before Jesus/Yeshua is all done away with. That's the old way. Part of this mindset will also suggest that no one around Yeshua's time spoke Hebrew. It was only used in religious settings, but it wasn't used day to day. Again, trying to solidify a passing of the "old ways".
However, we see Yeshua speaking in Hebrew several times through the Gospels. We see the disciples and other people interacting with Him using a Hebrew term: Rabbi. Paul is spoken to from Heaven in Hebrew and he also speaks to a group in Jerusalem in Hebrew. Revelation has several words in Hebrew as well.
There is also Hebrew chiastic structure throughout the New Testament.
I believe I have written about it before, but a very helpful teaching that helped me break the mindset of "old ways" vs "new ways", was https://www.wildbranch.org/tea....chings/hebrew-greek- .
I can't say anything about the rest of their teachings. I haven't gone through the whole site, but this teaching is very good and one that explains why so many in the church can read something that states "XYZ" plain as day yet will read it as "ABC".
The Bible was written by Hebrew people, who spoke and wrote in a Hebrew way. While, we don't have to know Hebrew to have a relationship with the Father, it is beneficial to study to be able to dig in deeper into the words of the Bible.

A word we hear often is “consensus” it sounds official but according to the Cambridge Dictionary it is defined this way. “a generally accepted opinion; wide agreement:” An opinion does not need to be proven, it simply needs to sound good, but what happens when it is wrong? Exodus 23:2, “You shall not follow the crowd in wrongdoing. When you testify in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the crowd.”

“This Is The Way”… catchy saying isnt it? We are here to follow The Way but how do we know The Way from other paths? We were given Instructions. The Torah is our Map. And Yeshua is our guide.
Before Him we had no Instruction but vague ideas of a trip were were to take but hadn’t started walking yet. And others had the instructions but could not know where they were located to begin walking in the right direction.
Christianity says you don’t need the Instructions. Just follow “Jesus”. But Yeshua isn’t physically here with us, and He left long ago, so following Him requires a Road He walked and a Map He drew, and the notation He added to get us started, “You Are Here!”

Thought for Today: Monday August 11
The Bible’s account about Hezekiah gives us an idea for problem solving: “Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it. And Hezekiah went up to the house of Adonai, and spread it before Adonai. Then Hezekiah prayed before Adonai” (2 Kings 19:14-15). Instead of turning to YHVH as the last resort. Follow Hezekiah’s formula, turn to YHVH first with your problems, for only He is capable of handling them in a way that will be in your best interest – and according to His perfect will.
I've taken the Cannabis Retail Certification program. It authorizes me to work and sell Cannabis in a licensed retail store in Manitoba, Canada where it is legal. Although Cannabis is controversial, I don't think that it violates Torah. Thoughts?
