#Genesis in #ChiasticStructure now Available!
http://www.nothingnewpress.com..../product/genesis-in-
The entire text of the book of Genesis forms a continuous string of chiastic structures from beginning to end, and here one can read the text of Genesis while seeing the structures within it. The structures illuminate the “hard” places of Scripture – where the world has accused God of being vengeful, wrathful, angry, and judgmental – instead elegantly revealing the Gospel of grace, and the life and ministry of Messiah #Yeshua, as well as providing amazing insight into the message of Scripture. The book concludes with three different single structures of the complete book of Genesis.

My name is Teresa Smith, I am in Sidney Ne. I am closer to Cheyenne Wy and Colorado than Iowa. I have been walking as a born again believer for 26 years and fully out of the church for 18-20. I have never had a congregation to be a part of which has trained me to be a Berean and to search out the answers I needed. I had a husband who on the surface walked in Torah but in his heart did not know Yah. i have three grown children. One who walks in Torah with me, one who it is more family tradition than personal relationship and one who has no relationship with Yah. I have a personal leaning towards Issachar as my tribe but I would not lay odds on it. My favorite verse is "Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Mt 6:28-29 I also am very fond of the whole book of Ruth. I am currently single and a waiting on Yah's timing to bring me my Boaz. I am always looking for local like minded believers to fellowship with.
"Pharaoh enslaved us, but Laban tried to destroy us." Pharaoh let the Hebrews remain a distinct people, but Laban tried to assimilate them. In the long run, Israel prospered in both cases. No plan of man can thwart the plan of God. #vayetzei #torah
To a devout Jew, a Messianic believer looks very much like Laban trying to assimilate them. "Be one of us!" But this is a misconception. Torah-keeping believers in Yeshua want to encourage Torah-keeping among Jews and all people. We want them to become purified Jews with more Torah and less Babylon. Yeshua is a Jew, after all.
ALWAYS remember that we are grafted into Israel NOT the other way around. "To the Jew 1st..."

Our family of 3 is located in SW Virginia, thankfully near enough to other followers of Torah that we don't have to feel completely isolated. We've been in the walk for almost 2 years now. So thankful for the fellowship we have right now.
We stumbled into this walk backwards. We didn't do any traditional holidays for 5+ years prior to Torah study. The day before Yom Teruah 2019, hubs and I did a mikvah/baptism. After that, the Father changed our course and showed us His ways. Two weeks before Hanukkah 2019, we went to an organized church for the first time in 15 years that is feasts and sabbath. (We met in homes previously.) We spent our first feast cycle with that church. We now meet in homes again with other believers.
Interestingly enough, hubs has a podcast that he named Path to Zion PRIOR to our walking into the feasts and sabbath. Father's ways and timing are perfect. :) - Kristin
