Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?
After a quick review of the last two episodes, Rabbi Steve Berkson shows us from Jeremiah 33:7-8 how Yahweh promised to, “turn back (Shuva) the captivity of Judah and Israel and build them as at the first.”
In this passage, why does Yahweh mention both Judah and Israel?
• When was “at the first”? (Exodus 6:6) How can you relate to this concept today?
• How can you “return” if you were not born and raised as an Israeli?
• What is the first step of ‘returning’?
• What is the ‘Egypt’ that is over you today?
• What are the two levels of redemption that Messiah Yeshua provided for us?
• For what is the Land (of Israel) a metaphor?
• What is the 2-step process of “return” promised in Jeremiah 33:8?
From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to Ezekiel chapter 18. In this chapter we see how we individually will be held accountable for our behavior and the importance of “owning” our choices.
• Why are the words, “Thus said Yahweh” important?
• What is a ‘nephesh’ and how has it been improperly defined?
• Is a son held accountable for the father’s unrighteousness, or visa-versa?
• Is there such a thing as “generational curses”?
• Do you really reap what you sow?
• How can I make a new heart and spirit?
Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery as we learn how to covenant with our Creator and Father, which, from time to time requires us to turn around and return (Shuva) to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.
