[RTM Torah Portions] - Restoration of Torah Ministries' Messianic Think Tank - New Audio Visual Content Uploaded!

Can we do תפילות prayers for:

Tony Robinson and his ministery?

That also through them The האור Light, רפואה The Healing and The ואהבה Love of ישועת יהוהYeshuath YHWH may come back to הארץ The Land of Israel?

 

 
Christmas - Yeshua's Birthday?
 
 
Shabbat Shalom,

Just want to inform you of more Messianic Think Tank audio/visual content that was uploaded recently . . . 

When was Yeshua Born?  This teaching will present a coherent, easy to follow study on how to know when Yeshua was born, which was NOT December 25th.  The purpose of this teaching is to 1) show how the scripture gives us AMPLE information on how to determine the time of Yeshua's birth and 2) use that information to correctly determine the time of His birth.  We are to worship Adonai in Spirit AND Truth.  December 25th is NOT Yeshua's birth date, therefore celebration of His "birthday" on December 25th is NOT serving Him in Truth. 


This teaching will be permanently located on the Think Tank under the category of Festivals.




Remember that RTM has audio/visual presentations available on our Messianic Think Tank web page.  I will be uploading material regularly.  The RTM Messianic Think Tank web page can be found at . . .


You will find the following categories:

  • Teachings on the Weekly Torah Portions
  • Teachings on the Festivals
  • Teachings on Miscellaneous Topics
  • Teachings Loaded Onto YouTube

Shalom,
Tony Robinson

What is Shabbat Shalom?
 

Jews all over the world read a portion of the Torah, the Five Books of Moses, in the synagogue every Shabbat morning.  The cycle begins right after the Feast of Tabernacles and concludes the following year at the end of the Feast of Tabernacles.  Traditionally, Jewish families discuss the Torah portion at their Shabbat Table, bringing new insights, each year, to the same inspirational words and stories that they have been reading for years. In this weekly column, Sondra Oster Baras, CFOIC Heartland's Israel Director, shares her personal reflections on the weekly Torah portion.

Shmot (Names)
Exodus 1:1 - 6:1

This week we begin the Book of Exodus. The first portion is one of transformation - the children of Israel, the family of Jacob, become the "Hebrews" and the Children of Israel, with a national focus. The family of Amram and Yocheved become the first family of Israel, as Moses is transformed from infant, to impulsive young man, to leader and prophet. The process of transformation in each case is both moving and beautiful.

I would like to focus my thoughts this week on Miriam, Moses' sister who watches carefully as the Daughter of Pharaoh reaches out to draw Moses from the water. She is a young girl but she has great concern for the fate of her baby brother. As Pharaoh's daughter takes pity on the child and decides to care for him, Miriam is there, on the spot, to suggest her own mother as a wet-nurse for the new baby.

Later on in the Bible, we learn more about Miriam. We learn that she is a leader and initiator as she leads the women in song and dance after the Exodus. She is punished by G-d with leprosy when she gossips about her brother's wife. And when she dies, she is mourned by the entire nation.

The Midrash tells a fascinating story about Miriam that adds an additional dimension to her character, but is quite consistent with the qualities we already see in the Biblical story. After Pharaoh decrees the death of all Jewish babies, insisting that they be thrown mercilessly into the Nile, the Midrash tells us that many men separated from their wives, so as not to risk pregnancy and the birth of a baby that would then by slaughtered by Pharaoh. Amram and Yocheved separated as well. However, Miriam with a wisdom and poignancy far exceeding her years, scolds her father and insists that her parents come back together. She tells them: isn't it enough that Pharaoh has decreed death to the sons of Israel - by separating, you are decreeing death on both the sons and daughters of Israel! Moved by their daughter's anguish, Amram and Yocheved reunite and the result is the birth of Moses.

The message of this tale is indeed powerful and it is this message that has resonated to Jewish students for centuries. Amram and Yocheved tried to avoid what they perceived as certain tragedy, by ensuring that no future children would be born in their family. But they did not take into account G- d's role in the situation. Miriam essentially told her parents that if G-d wanted their child to survive, the child would be a girl. What Miriam and her parents could not envision is that the son that would be born from their union would actually save the Jewish people and be G-d's own messenger to them.

It was not for Amram and Yocheved to try and outsmart the decree, or outsmart G-d. It was for them to continue doing what they knew was right and rely on G-d to bring salvation. As we continue to build homes and deepen our roots in Judea and Samaria, despite the "convergence plans" that are on and off the table, we follow this same message. It is not for us to stop building to avoid having our homes destroyed. We must continue doing what we can and trust G-d to save us. And if our houses are destroyed, then it was what G-d wanted.
Shabbat Shalom from Samaria,
Sondra
