Bits of Torah Truths - Paul Believed in the Torah and Prophets is for Today - Episode 63 Acts 24:14 יד אֲבָל אֶת זֶה אֲנִי מוֹדֶה לְפָנֶיךָ׃ בַּדֶּרֶךְ הַנִּקְרֵאת בְּפִיהֶם ׳כַּת׳ עוֹבֵד אֲנִי אֶת אֱלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ, וּמַאֲמִין בְּכָל הַכָּתוּב בַּתּוֹרָה וּבַנְּבִיאִים; Acts 24:14 14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets: (KJV) Here in Acts 24:14 Paul believed all of the things in the Torah and the Prophets. He used the Torah and the Prophets as his defense that he was not teaching heresy. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Yeshua was Circumcised on the Eighth Day - Episode 20 Luke 2:21 כא כְּשֶׁמָּלְאוּ שְׁמוֹנָה יָמִים וְהִגִּיעַ הַזְּמַן לָמוּל אוֹתוֹ קָרְאוּ אֶת שְׁמוֹ יֵשׁוּעַ, (ויקרא יב׳ ג׳//בראשית יז׳ יב׳) כַּשֵּׁם שֶׁקָּרָא לוֹ הַמַּלְאָךְ לִפְנֵי שֶׁהוֹרָה בַּבֶּטֶן Luke 2:21 21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb. (KJV) Here we read how Yeshua was circumcised on the eighth day according to the Torah. When we take a closer look at the gospels it is easy to see the role of the Torah in the life of God's people even from childbirth. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Yeshua Taught on Divorce using the Torah - Episode 19 Mark 10:5–10 ה אָמַר לָהֶם יֵשׁוּעַ׃ ״בִּגְלַל קְשִׁי לְבַבְכֶם כָּתַב לָכֶם אֶת הַמִּצְוָה הַזֹּאת, ו אֲבָל מֵרֵאשִׁית הַבְּרִיאָה ׳זָכָר וּנְקֵבָה בָּרָא אֹתָם׳. (בראשית א׳ כז׳//בראשית ה׳ ב׳) ז ׳עַל–כֵּן יַעֲזָב אִישׁ אֶת–אָבִיו וְאֶת–אִמּוֹ "וְדָבַק בְּאִשְׁתּוֹ" ח וְהָיוּ שְׁנֵיהֶם לְבָשָׂר אֶחָד.׳ (בראשית ב׳ כד׳) וּבְכֵן אֵינָם עוֹד שְׁנַיִם אֶלָּא בָּשָׂר אֶחָד. ט לְפִיכָךְ מַה שֶּׁחִבֵּר אֱלֹהִים אַל יַפְרִיד אָדָם.״ (מלאכי ב׳ טז׳) Mark 10:5–9 5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. 6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. 7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; 8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. (KJV) Here Yeshua used the creation account to teach on the topic of divorce. This is significant since it suggests to us how the Torah has not passed away. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - John the Baptist used the Torah to Rebuke Herod - Episode 18 Mark 6:18 יח כִּי יוֹחָנָן אָמַר לְהוֹרְדוֹס׃ ״אֵשֶׁת אָחִיךָ אֵינָהּ מֻתֶּרֶת לְךָ.״ (ויקרא יח׳ טז׳) Leviticus 20:21 כא וְאִ֗ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֥ר יִקַּ֛ח אֶת־אֵ֥שֶׁת אָחִ֖יו נִדָּ֣ה הִ֑וא עֶרְוַ֥ת אָחִ֛יו גִּלָּ֖ה עֲרִירִ֥ים יִהְיֽוּ׃ Here John used Leviticus 20:21 regarding the command not to marry your brother's wife. This suggests that the Torah is still valid today as much as it was when this book was written! https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Yeshua interpreted the Sabbath Day - Episode 17 Mark 3:3–4 ג את אָמַר אֶל הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יָדוֹ יְבֵשָׁה׃ ״עֲמֹד בָּאֶמְצַע!״ ד פָּנָה אֲלֵיהֶם וְשָׁאַל׃ ״הַאִם מֻתָּר לְהֵיטִיב בְּשַׁבָּת אוֹ לַעֲשׂוֹת רָעָה? לְהַצִּיל נֶפֶשׁ אוֹ לַהֲרֹג?״ אַךְ הֵם שָׁתְקוּ Yeshua asked the rhetorical question of whether one should do good or evil on the Shabbat. The point is he was dealing with the issues of the Torah. The Torah has not passed away. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Paul Used the Torah to Defend His Position - Episode 61 Acts 23:3 ג אָמַר לוֹ שָׁאוּל׃ ״עָתִיד אֱלֹהִים לְהַכּוֹת אוֹתְךָ, קִיר מְטֻיָּח שֶׁכְּמוֹתְךָ! אַתָּה יוֹשֵׁב לִשְׁפֹּט אוֹתִי עַל–פִּי הַתּוֹרָה וּמְצַוֶּה לְהַכּוֹתֵנִי שֶׁלֹּא כַּתּוֹרָה?״ Acts 23:3 3 Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law? (KJV) Here, Paul believed that the Torah has not passed away according to Acts 23:3. Paul used the Torah to defend his position. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Yeshua Taught the Greatest Commands from the Torah Using the Torah - Episode 15 Matthew 22:36–40 36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. (KJV) Here Yeshua called upon the Shema from the Torah (Deuteronomy 6:4-8) and from Leviticus using the authority of the Torah to prove the greatest commands. This substantiates the validity of the Torah that it has not passed away https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Paul Used the Torah to Show Ananias was a Righteous Man - Episode 60 Acts 22:12–13 יב אִישׁ אֶחָד, חֲנַנְיָה שְׁמוֹ, אִישׁ חָסִיד עַל–פִּי הַתּוֹרָה וְשֵׁם טוֹב לוֹ בְּקֶרֶב כָּל הַתּוֹשָׁבִים הַיְּהוּדִים, יג בָּא אֵלַי וְעָמַד לְיָדִי. אָמַר אֵלַי, ׳שָׁאוּל אָחִי, רְאֵה שׁוּב!׳ בְּאוֹתָהּ שָׁעָה רָאִיתִי אוֹתוֹ. Acts 22:12–13 12 And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt there, 13 Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him. (KJV) A very important observation in Acts 22:12 is how Paul used the Torah to say Ananias was a righteous man. We note how the Torah is the standard for righteousness. So, pointedly the Torah has not passed away. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Yeshua wore Tzitzit - Episode 13 Matthew 9:20 Just then a woman who had suffered for twelve years with constant bleeding came up behind him. She touched the fringe of his robe, (NLT) Bamidbar / Numbers 15:38 לח דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם וְעָשׂ֨וּ לָהֶ֥ם צִיצִ֛ת עַל־כַּנְפֵ֥י בִגְדֵיהֶ֖ם לְדֹרֹתָ֑ם וְנָ֥תְנ֛וּ עַל־צִיצִ֥ת הַכָּנָ֖ף פְּתִ֥יל תְּכֵֽלֶת׃ Numbers 15:38 38Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue. Traditional interpretation of the woman's actions has been that of a desperate woman who wanted healing so badly that she touched the hem of Yeshua's garment. The actual Aramaic word was not “hem” but “edge” which referred to the “borders” or kanaf of “garments” (beged), which is where “fringes” or “tassels” (tzittzit) are placed (Numbers 15:38-39). Yeshua, like all other Torah observant Jews, wore a tallit with tzittzit as a reminder to keep the Commandments of God. The Hebrew word kanaf is also found in Malachi 4:2 “...with healing in his kanaf (wings)...” Wings here refer to the tallit; they are not actual "wings." See also Zechariah 8:23. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Yeshua used the Torah and the Prophets as Proof Texts - Episode 14 Matthew 11:13–15 13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. 14 And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come. 15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. (KJV) Yeshua used the Torah and the prophets to prove John the Baptist’s mission and identity as the forerunner of the Messiah. He quoted from the Book of Malachi, which prophesied that God would send Elijah before the great and dreadful day of the Lord. He identified John as the Elijah who was to come, and said that those who have ears should hear. He also affirmed John’s testimony about himself, that he was not the Christ, but the voice of one crying in the wilderness, "Make straight the way of the Lord," as Isaiah the prophet had said. He praised John as more than a prophet, and as the greatest among those born of women, because he prepared the people for the coming of the kingdom of heaven. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - More False Accusations that Paul Taught Against Torah - Episode 59 Acts 21:28 כח וְצָעֲקוּ׃ ״אַנְשֵׁי יִשְׂרָאֵל, עִזְרוּ! זֶהוּ הַאִישׁ הַמְלַמֵּד אֶת כָּל הָאֲנָשִׁים בְּכָל מָקוֹם נֶגֶד הָעָם הַזֶּה וְנֶגֶד הַתּוֹרָה וְהַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה, וַאֲפִלּוּ יְוָנִים הִכְנִיס אֶל הַמִּקְדָּשׁ וְחִלֵּל אֶת הַמָּקוֹם הַקָּדוֹשׁ הַזֶּה.״ Acts 21:28 28 Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place. (KJV) In Acts 21:28 we read about how Paul was accused of teaching against the Torah. So here we see more false accusations saying that Paul taught against the Torah. The significance of these things is that Paul didn't teach against the Torah because the Torah is supposed to be a part of the life of a believer in Yeshua the Messiah. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - The Nations will come to Learn Torah - Episode 7 מיכה פרק ד א וְהָיָ֣ה׀ בְּאַחֲרִ֣ית הַיָּמִ֗ים יִ֠הְיֶה הַ֣ר בֵּית־יְהוָ֤ה נָכוֹן֙ בְּרֹ֣אשׁ הֶהָרִ֔ים וְנִשָּׂ֥א ה֖וּא מִגְּבָע֑וֹת וְנָהֲר֥וּ עָלָ֖יו עַמִּֽים׃ ב וְֽהָלְכ֞וּ גּוֹיִ֣ם רַבִּ֗ים וְאָֽמְרוּ֙ לְכ֣וּ׀ וְנַעֲלֶ֣ה אֶל־הַר־יְהוָ֗ה וְאֶל־בֵּית֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יַעֲקֹ֔ב וְיוֹרֵ֙נוּ֙ מִדְּרָכָ֔יו וְנֵלְכָ֖ה בְּאֹֽרְחֹתָ֑יו כִּ֤י מִצִּיּוֹן֙ תֵּצֵ֣א תוֹרָ֔ה וּדְבַר־יְהוָ֖ה מִירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃ Micah 4:1–2 (NASB): 4:1 And it will come about in the last days That the mountain of the house of the Lord Will be established as the chief of the mountains. It will be raised above the hills, And the peoples will stream to it. 2 And many nations will come and say, “Come and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord And to the house of the God of Jacob, That He may teach us about His ways And that we may walk in His paths.” For from Zion will go forth the law, Even the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. Here Micah speaks of a future time when the mountain of the Lord will be the chief mountain and the nations will stream to the mountain of the Lord to learn the Torah and to learn how to walk in the ways of God. Since this is a future expectation, “why is the dominant theology today against keeping the Torah of God?” https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - The Nations will Obey the Torah - Episode 8 זכריה פרק יד טז וְהָיָ֗ה כָּל־הַנּוֹתָר֙ מִכָּל־הַגּוֹיִ֔ם הַבָּאִ֖ים עַל־יְרֽוּשָׁלִָ֑ם וְעָל֞וּ מִדֵּ֧י שָׁנָ֣ה בְשָׁנָ֗ה לְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֺת֙ לְמֶ֙לֶךְ֙ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֔וֹת וְלָחֹ֖ג אֶת־חַ֥ג הַסֻּכּֽוֹת׃ יז וְ֠הָיָה אֲשֶׁ֨ר לֹֽא־יַעֲלֶ֜ה מֵאֵ֨ת מִשְׁפְּח֤וֹת הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ אֶל־יְר֣וּשָׁלִַ֔ם לְהִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֺ֔ת לְמֶ֖לֶךְ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֑וֹת וְלֹ֥א עֲלֵיהֶ֖ם יִהְיֶ֥ה הַגָּֽשֶׁם׃ יח וְאִם־מִשְׁפַּ֨חַת מִצְרַ֧יִם לֹֽא־תַעֲלֶ֛ה וְלֹ֥א בָאָ֖ה וְלֹ֣א עֲלֵיהֶ֑ם תִּֽהְיֶ֣ה הַמַּגֵּפָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִגֹּ֤ף יְהוָה֙ אֶת־הַגּוֹיִ֔ם אֲשֶׁר֙ לֹ֣א יַֽעֲל֔וּ לָחֹ֖ג אֶת־חַ֥ג הַסֻּכּֽוֹת׃ יט זֹ֥את תִּהְיֶ֖ה חַטַּ֣את מִצְרָ֑יִם וְחַטַּאת֙ כָּל־הַגּוֹיִ֔ם אֲשֶׁר֙ לֹ֣א יַֽעֲל֔וּ לָחֹ֖ג אֶת־חַ֥ג הַסֻּכּֽוֹת׃ Zechariah 14:16–21 (NASB): 16 Then it will come about that any who are left of all the nations that went against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Booths. 17 And it will be that whichever of the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, there will be no rain on them. 18 And if the family of Egypt does not go up or enter, then no rain will fall on them; it will be the plague with which the Lord smites the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Booths. 19 This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Booths. 20 In that day there will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, “HOLY TO THE LORD.” And the cooking pots in the Lord’s house will be like the bowls before the altar. 21 And every cooking pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of hosts; and all who sacrifice will come and take of them and boil in them. And there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the Lord of hosts in that day. Here Zechariah speaks of a messianic prophecy that describes the millennial reign of the Lord over the earth. At this future time the nations will go up to Jerusalem and the feast of tabernacles will be kept. Again what we observe here according to the scripture is that the Torah has not passed away! https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - The Torah will be Written upon One's Heart - Episode 5 ספר ישעיהו פרק נא ז שִׁמְע֤וּ אֵלַי֙ יֹ֣דְעֵי צֶ֔דֶק עַ֖ם תּוֹרָתִ֣י בְלִבָּ֑ם אַל־תִּֽירְאוּ֙ חֶרְפַּ֣ת אֱנ֔וֹשׁ וּמִגִּדֻּפֹתָ֖ם אַל־תֵּחָֽתּוּ׃ Isaiah 51:7 51:7 Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, The people in whose heart is my law; Fear ye not the reproach of men, Neither be ye afraid of their revilings. (KJV) Here Isaiah states that the righteous will listen to the Lord God Almighty. These are those whom the Torah is written upon their hearts. (Jeremiah 31:31–34) In addition, we are not to be ashamed or afraid of the reproach and reviling of men. We will look at how Yeshua the Messiah taught Torah in the NT text. An interesting question for us in light of Isaiah here: “Is it possible to understand what Yeshua taught if one does not have the Torah written upon heart heart?” and “what does it mean to have the Torah written upon the heart?” https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - The Torah is Needed to be God’s People - Episode 6 ירמיה פרק לא לג כִּ֣י זֹ֣את הַבְּרִ֡ית אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֶכְרֹת֩ אֶת־בֵּ֨ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל אַחֲרֵ֨י הַיָּמִ֤ים הָהֵם֙ נְאֻם־יְהוָ֔ה נָתַ֤תִּי אֶת־תּֽוֹרָתִי֙ בְּקִרְבָּ֔ם וְעַל־לִבָּ֖ם אֶכְתֲּבֶ֑נָּה וְהָיִ֤יתִי לָהֶם֙ לֵֽאלֹהִ֔ים וְהֵ֖מָּה יִֽהְיוּ־לִ֥י לְעָֽם׃ Jeremiah 31:33 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, And write it in their hearts; And will be their God, And they shall be my people. (KJV) We note how significant this verse is, God says He will write His Torah upon the heart of His people. When this happens he says וְהָיִ֤יתִי לָהֶם֙ לֵֽאלֹהִ֔ים וְהֵ֖מָּה יִֽהְיוּ־לִ֥י לְעָֽם we will be His people and He will be our God. Note the qualifier here is having God's Torah written upon our heart. If Jeremiah 31:33 is a messianic prophecy why would the new covenant that we have in Yeshua cause the Torah to be no more? https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/

Bits of Torah Truths - Why does Jeremiah Lament if the Torah would be done away with? - Episode 9 איכה פרק ב ט טָבְע֤וּ בָאָ֙רֶץ֙ שְׁעָרֶ֔יהָ אִבַּ֥ד וְשִׁבַּ֖ר בְּרִיחֶ֑יהָ מַלְכָּ֨הּ וְשָׂרֶ֤יהָ בַגּוֹיִם֙ אֵ֣ין תּוֹרָ֔ה גַּם־נְבִיאֶ֕יהָ לֹא־מָצְא֥וּ חָז֖וֹן מֵיְהוָֽה׃ Lamentations 2:9 (NASB): 9 Her gates have sunk into the ground, He has destroyed and broken her bars. Her king and her princes are among the nations; The law is no more; Also, her prophets find No vision from the Lord. Here in Lamentations 2:9 Jeremiah lamented that the Torah is no more. The question is why lament if the Torah was ultimately to be done away with as is taught in modern theologies today? We note that in Psalm 119 David exalted the Torah. https://www.matsati.com/index.php/category/bits-of-torah-truths/
