I'm looking for resources to go along with a study on the book of Habakkuk. If anyone has a link or source for help in me studying this, I'd appreciate it !!
Thank you ?
We all want to see right prevail. Or do we? Maybe what we really want is to see right prevail as we define it.

"I was upright also with him, and have kept me from my wickedness.
Therefore Yahweh rewarded me according to my righteousness, and according to the pureness of mine hands in his sight."

COMMENTARY
THE WALLS AND GATES OF JERUSALEM
Long before the birth of Jesus and continuing into the early sixteenth century AD., every city of any importance built stone walls around its outer limits to protect itself from attack. They were thick and high, usually with towers and walkways where sentries could keep guard. The walls still standing in the Old City of Jerusalem range from four to fourteen inches thick, and from thirty to fifty feet high. Time after time throughout history, this city’s walls have been built, destroyed and rebuilt, though not always in the same place. Jerusalem’s first walls were erected around 1800 B.C. When King David captured the city eight hundred years later, he made Jerusalem his capital and rebuilt the walls, extending the city northward. Hezekiah’s repairs, three hundred years after that, lasted until 586 B.C., when the Babylonians razed the city. Almost a century passed before Nehemiah surveyed the destruction of the walls in the secret of the night. The walls he then rebuilt lie many feet under those that stand today. Architects since Nehemiah include the Roman rulers Herod, Agrippa and Hadrian, the medieval Christian Crusaders from Europe and the Turkish king Suleiman the Magnificent in the sixteenth century. In ancient times, the walls were interrupted with bronze-plated gates. At sundown, the gates were closed and bolted with iron bars, not to be opened until sunrise. Any travelers who arrived after dark were carefully questioned by the sentries on duty throughout the night. Guards kept watch in towers over each gateway. Many of the gates mentioned by name in the Old Testament have been destroyed, along with their adjoining walls. A few were rebuilt in a place nearby the old and given the same name or, in some cases, an entirely new one. In Bible times, sunrise transformed the broad space directly inside each gate into a throng of activity. Merchants set up booths to sell their wares. People met and talked while children played nearby. In the long-ago past, prophets delivered speeches there; in the recent past, heralds proclaimed important news. Before modern times, friendless strangers and country people with no better lodging, wrapped their cloaks around them at the close of the day and slept for the night at the foot of the gate.

A man came from Baal-shalishah, bringing the man of God bread of the firstfruits...
2 Kings 4:42
The firstfruits should have been taken to Jerusalem, but the King of Israel had forbidden any citizens of his kingdom from going to the Temple. Since they couldn't go to Jerusalem, it was better that the firstfruits be brought to Elisha than to the false temple of the north.
This is an example for all of us who attempt to keep the feasts where we have been exiled in the nations. We do what we can, with what we have, where we are. Just don't mistake our rehearsals for the actual Feast in Jerusalem.
Baptism is required for salvation.
Yeshua is the Son of God. God is YHVH. Accepting this is also required for salvation.
Salvation requires three things: repentance, accepting Yeshua as the Messiah/Son of God, and being baptized.
