"The Israelites are to camp around the tent of meeting some distance from it, each of them under their standard and holding the banners of their family."
Numbers 2:2

Hi friend,

This coming Shabbat's Torah portion, read on Saturday, June 8th, is Parashat Bamidbar. In this week’s portion the Israelites and the Tribe of Levi are counted separately. G‑d instructs the Israelites on how to camp in the desert, surrounding the Tabernacle. The Levites are informed the procedure for dismantling the Tabernacle before traveling.

G‑d commands Moses to count all Jewish men of military age. G‑d names one member of each tribe as the nasi, leader, of the tribe. Each nasi will assist Moses and Aaron in taking a census of his tribe. 

A Biblical Perspective of Israel’s War

In this episode of Keeping it Israel’s BATTLE FOR TRUTH series, Jeff talks to Bob O’Dell, co-founder of Root Source about what Israel’s war with Hamas means through a Biblical lens. How are Christians finding meaning in Israel’s war with Hamas? Are they finding any at all? Is this war an example of Psalm 83? Is it signs of Gog and Magog (Ezekiel 38/39)? And who were the Amalekites in the Bible… does this war relate to them in any way? These are some of the questions addressed in this thought-provoking conversation.

Fear of God and the Hebrew Midwives

In our third lesson in the course, Fear of God in the Hebrew Bible, we will explore the episode of the Hebrew midwives in Egypt in the Book of Exodus. These two women defy the orders of the all powerful Pharaoh despite the danger.

This series of videos tells the story of Joshua's Altar, that is one of the most important discoveries in the world in proving the veracity of the Bible.  In Part 6, Aaron summarizes the findings, opens it up for questions, and thanks to Pastor Linda Chandler, he closes with a Hebrew song.

Meanwhile, Gayle, has a comment on the Coincidence? I think not!

"Thank you so much for the things I am learning on your website about the Hebrew language. This lesson on “coincidence” and the meaning in Hebrew is wonderful to know. I’ve always believed that nothing happens by “coincidence” or “chance” with God, and to now see the meaning of the word “coincidence” in Hebrew brings joy to my heart as it reaffirms the depth of our God"
