Restoration of Torah Ministries Weekly Newsletter!


	*Welcome* Shalom and welcome to everyone who is new to the Restoration of Torah Ministries' Weekly Newsletter. The primary purpose of this newsletter is to encourage YOU to study the weekly Torah Portion (Parashat HaShavuah in Hebrew) and grow in the grace and knowledge of Messiah Yeshua. Secondarily, you'll learn about what's going on at Restoration of Torah Ministries. *The Weekly Torah Portion (Ha'azinu)* This week we are studying Parashat Ha'azinu, Deuteronomy 32:1–52. The Haftarah reading is 2 Samuel 22:1–22:51. You can download the Torah lesson as a PDF file, WORD document or as a PDF Children's lesson. As you know, when you study thematically, you'll see that the Old Testament and New Testament are saying exactly the same thing, just in a different manner. For example, some may think that the book of Revelation is unique; however, large portions of the book of Revelation have their origin in the Old Testament (TaNaKh). Now here's a secret that you'll learn about this week. Parashat Ha'azinu is the "book of Revelation" of the Torah! That's right. If you want to know where, in the Torah, you can find parallels to the book of Revelation then look no further than Parashat Ha'azinu. *Succot (Feast of Tabernacles)* The Biblical festival of Sukkot begins this coming Sunday 10/1/12 at sundown and ends Sunday 10/8/12. The special readings for Sukkot are as follows. Leviticus 22:26–23:44, Numbers 29:12–16, Zechariah 14, 1 Kings 8:2–21, Ecclesiastes, and Deuteronomy. This festival is our joyous celebration of the goodness of Adonai and His Messiah, Yeshua. Hopefully, you will have somewhere to celebrate Sukkot. Even if you are not able to celebrate camping with others, it's a joy to build a sukkah, eat meals in it and be a witness. Sometimes we camp in our house or outside on our property. Be creative! For a number of years we built the sukkah around our tent as we camped. Adonai has been very gracious to us as a result of keeping Sukkot. Throughout the early 2000s, we camped all throughout the Smokey Mountains. During Sukkot of 2006, we celebrated Sukkot on Raccoon Mountain in Chattanooga, TN. Two months later a job posting went up in the Chattanooga area. Because we had loved camping in the Smokeys and especially in Chattanooga, I applied for the job and got it by Adonai's grace. Now I'm here permanently, able to enjoy the Northwest Georgia/Southeast Tennessee area. May Adonai richly bless you as you celebrate Sukkot this year! *New Teachings Added to the Website* New Audio Teaching Uploaded (Fully Uploaded!) The Olah (Whole Burnt Offering) - I have uploaded a new teaching entitled The Olah - The Pathway to Discipleship. This is an audio teaching presented to explore the significance of the Olah or Whole Burnt Offering. What was the significance of this offering? What are we to learn from it? What was its purpose? Is it relevant to us today? Restoration of Torah Ministries will answer these questions and hopefully more. This is a three part audio teaching. You will also be able to view the Power Point overheads as a PDF file. This teaching as well as most audio/visual material produced by RTM can be found on the Audio Visual web page. This page is one of the major links at the top of the main web page. Specifically, the Olah teaching will be found in the Miscellaneous-Special Teachings section of the menu found on the Audio Visual Media page found HERE. *Ministry Opportunities* I am blessed to be part of the Hebraic Roots Network (HRN). If you are looking for a great internet site where you can dive in and learn about your Hebraic roots then HRN is the place. Furthermore, you'll be able to glean from many good teachers. You can get to the HRN website by clicking HERE. Soon this fall, all videos will be ON-DEMAND meaning that you will be able to watch anything when you want to! *New Video Content Coming This Torah Cycle* Introducing the Haftarah Connections Lectures - Tony has begun up-loading teaching videos that will discuss the numerous thematic connections between the Torah portion and the Haftarah readings. This will be a good opportunity for you to follow along and try your hand at understanding why each Haftarah reading was chosen as the Torah portion reading from the prophets. I will endeavor to keep up with the Torah portions this year. Currently, all of Genesis is complete. So while you're studying Genesis, I'll be trying to stay ahead by recording Exodus, and so forth. That'll take some prayer : ) These lectures are found on the RTM Youtube page HERE. The current content is Genesis through Shemot. *Other Places to Study Torah* Har Etzion Yeshiva - A Hesder (Military Yeshiva) in Israel. They have an awesome collection of Torah lessons. You read between 20-30 lessons each week if you have the time! Simply click on the link and then click on Tanakh. Then choose either Parsha or Intro to Parsha and choose any one of many lessons for the Torah portion you're interested in. The Tanach Study Center - Administered by Menachem Liebtag, these are great lessons! Okay, both of these sites are administered by non-Messianic Rabbi's; however, they are some of the most insightful Torah lessons on the net. Of course, they don't believe that Yeshua is the Messiah; however, they are a good source of Torah wisdom. Obviously, not all that they say is correct, but I have found that they are some of the most balanced Torah commentaries around and I highly recommend them. *In fact, it is Menachem Liebtag's Torah lessons that are responsible for me learning and understanding how to approach scripture thematically!* You can blame him : ) Seriously, his Torah lessons are the ones that taught me how to think thematically and I am forever indebted to him, his scholarly approach and his love of Torah. Not only is he a great Torah scholar, he is a very kind man who is very humble. Shalom From The Robinson's

Please Say Yes to Abba Yahweh and His Laws.

It is written in the Koran:
‘1. Surah Al-Fatihah:

1. In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
2. All the praises and thanks are to Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
3. The Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
4. The Only Owner (and the Only Ruling Judge) of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection)
5. You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything).
6. Guide us to the Straight Way
7. The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians).

This is the 'start' in the Koran......

Please read the Mitzvoth go to: Positive Commandments and the Negative Commandments), easy to read. It is very important to know them. I don’t ask you this to become a good Jew! But to learn who you really are. That you can find your real identity. In a good understanding of the rest of The Scriptures. And that you understand that Rabbi Shaul is talking to a real Israel,

1Co 10:1 I do not want you to be without da'as (knowledge), Achim (brothers) b(in) 'Moshiach, that Avoteinu (our fore Fathers, you Yehudah and Ephraim! Nobody else.) all were under the anan (cloud),

(‘Achim (brothers) b(in)Moshiach are Yehudah and Ephraim who were all under the anan (cloud). The seed (literal) of Abraham, Yitzhak and Ya’acob) read it for yourself :)

Exo 13:21 And Yahweh went before them (Yehudah and Ephraim -Israel) by day in an ammud anan (‘Pillar of a cloud), to guide them haderech (the Way); and by lailah (night) in an ammud eish (‘Pillar of fire), to give them ohr (light); so they could travel yomam valailah (day or night);

Exo 13:22 He took not away the amud heanan (‘Pillar of a cloud) by day, nor the ammud haeish (‘Pillar of fire) by night, from before HaAm (the people, Yehudah and Ephraim) and passed through the sea.
Exo 14:22 And the Bnei Yisroel (Yehudah and Ephraim) then went into the middle of the yam (sea) upon the yabashah (dry land); and the mayim (waters) were a chomah (wall) unto them on their right, and on their left.

Exo 14:23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the middle of the yam (sea), even kol sus (all horses) Pharaoh, his chariots, and his parash (rider).

Exo 14:24 So it came to pass, that when came the watch of the boker (morning), Yahweh looked down on the machaneh Mitzrayim (camp of Egypt) through the ammud eish (pillar of fire) and of the anan (cloud), and caused confusion over the machaneh Mitzrayim (camp of Egypt),

Exo 14:25 And turned awry their chariot wheels, that they drove them with difficulty; so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the presence of Yisroel (really when Yehudah and Ephraim where together, not like today); because Yahweh fighting for them against the Egyptians,
So let we further listen what Rabbi Shaul has really to say:)

1Co 10:2 And all into Moshe Rabbenu were given tevilah (a ‘mikwah’ immersed) in the anan (cloud) and in the sea,

1Co 10:3 And all of the same spiritual okhel (food) ate [SHEMOT 16:4,35; DEVARIM 8:3; TEHILLIM 78:24-29],

1Co 10:4 And all of the same spiritual drink drank, for they were drinking from a spiritual TZUR (Rock) following them [SHEMOT 17:6; BAMIDBAR 20:11; TEHILLIM 78:15; 105:41], and that TZUR was Moshiach (Yeshuah – Yeshuah Yahweh).

And now one of our neviim:

Hab 2:3 For the chazon (vision) is yet for a mo’ed (an appointed time); it speaks of HaKetz (the End), and does not lie; though it tarry, wait for him

Moshiach— see: Sanhedrin 97b, ‘It has been taught; R. Nathan said: This verse pierces and descends to the very abyss:11 For the Vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though he tarry, wait for him (Moshiach); because it will surely come, it will not tarry.12]; because he (Moshiach) will surely come, and will not tarry.

(11) Just as the bottom of an abyss cannot be reached, so is it impossible to grasp the full purport of this verse (Rashi).
(12) Hab. II, 3.

Believe…..

Hab 2:4 Hinei (behold), his nashamah (soul) which is puffed up is not upright in him; but the tzaddik (righteous) shall live by his emunah (believe).

Through Moshiach, Yeshuah from Yahweh who give you emunah (believe)…..

Gen 15:6 And he believed in Yahweh; and He credited emunah (faith)] to him as tzedakah (righteousness).

Please read the whole book of HaNavi Habakuk?

The Koran teaches us that you have to die…….

But, please Yudah (Jews) and Ephraim (most Christians) Listen to His Voice:

Hab 1:12 Art thou not mikedem

(‘everlasting’ also said of Moshiach, indicating Moshiach’s eternal divine nature: Dan 7:14 And there was given Him (Moshiach) dominion, and honor, and sovereignty, that all people, Goyim, tongues, should pey-lammed-chet. [1] (worship as deity) (see Dan 3:12, serve, reverence as deity Him (Moshiach). His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His (Messianic) Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.] see Michah 5:1[2];)

Yahweh Elohai (my Elohim) Kedoshi (my Holy One)? We shall not die. Yahweh, Thou hast appointed them (these Chaldean) for mishpat (ordinance); O Tzur (Rock), Thou hast ordained them (these Chaldean) for reproof.

Maran Rabbeinu Yeshuah and Rabbeinu Shaul are teaching that you, Yehudah and Ephraim all Israel, come together to the same point as where you were when you said:

Deu 5:27 Go thou near, and hear all that Yahweh Eloheinu (our Elohim) shall say; and speak thou unto us all that Yahweh Eloheinu shall speak unto thee; and we will hear it, and do it.

But don’t ‘make’ from one of them Rabbeinu Yeshuah, Rabbeinu Shaul or Rabbeinu Mosheh another ‘mighty one’ but accept them in your live for what they really are….

Please take it serious what Abba Yahweh is telling us in:

Deu 18:15 Yahweh Eloheicha (your Elohim) will raise up unto thee a Navi (prophet) from among thee, of thy achim (bretheren), kamoni (like me.....

Exo 32:30 The next day Moshe said to the people, "You have committed a terrible sin. Now I will go up to Yahweh; maybe I will be able to atone for your sin."); unto him ye must listen;

Deu 18:16 According to all that thou desired of Yahweh Eloheicha (your Elohimin) Chorev (to be burnt dried up, ruined, wasted) in the Yom HaKahal (day of the congregation), saying, Let me not hear again the voice of Yahweh Elohav (your Elohim), neither let me see this eish hagedolah (‘great fire’) any more, that I die not.

Deu 18:17 And Yahweh said unto me, They have well-spoken that which they have spoken.

Deu 18:18 I will raise them up a Navi (prophet) from among their achim (brethren), like unto thee, and will put My words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

Joh 10:18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have samchut (authority) to lay it down, and I have samchut to receive it again. This mitzvah I received from HaAv (the Father).

Deu 18:19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not listen unto My words which he shall speak Bishmi (in My Name), I will require it of him.

Joh 8:28 Therefore, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, When you perform the hagbah (lifting up) of the Ben HaAdam, you will have da'as (knowledge) that Ani Hu [YESHAYAH 41:4; SHEMOT 3:14-16], and from myself I do nothing, but as HaAv (the Father) of me taught me, these things I speak.

Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiah Yeshuah – is Yeshuah Yahweh. Like it is said in:

Gen_49:18 I have waited for Thy Yeshuah (Salvation), Yahweh.

Exo_15:2 Yahweh is my oz and zimrah (song of praise), and He is become to me Yeshuah (salvation); He is Eli (my Elohim), and I will praise Him; Elohei Avi (the Elohim of my Father), and I will exalt Him.

And not a half-god, or another mighty-one who came between HaShem and us! (Not, ‘It Suph’!) I believe many of us (Jews and Ephraimites!) have to learn that!
