Disproving Hebrew Roots via the historical timeline of the covenants and the resurrection of Jesus

[@CaesarGB]

On the moral laws discussion, you have eloquently verbalized something I have been trying to articulate but have failed to do effectively so far. Thank you! As someone who is formerly a variety of Torah keeper, I have been dedicated to working these things out to better explain to others. Thanks to you and Mike Winger to name just two for continuing to strengthen my knowledge of theology!

[@TheBiblicalRoots]

Thank you Caesar! And I agree that Mike Winger is a great teacher. Blessings, Rob

[@sundownsam3369]

I have no idea who mike winger is and have never heard of him, but I just read one of his statements: "You will learn to think biblically about everything so that you can deal with false teaching," (he appears to be saying that he will teach biblical truth), but I will add to his statement the following: "if you allow the Spirit of God to teach and guide you when studying, unless you are one who falls into the teachings of man." If you do not read or ignore what I posted it tells me one thing, what you learn is of man. Take my post to them and ask them to explain it to you. Once again, Rob, you are distorting the Scriptures. You are either ignorant of true scriptural truth or you are deliberately distorting the Scriptures. I think the latter. Even if you read it, you will still deny it because it appears that you will not allow the Spirit of God to correct you through the Scriptures. Jeremiah 31:31-34 is clear about the New Covenant. The New Covenant is about God writing his law in their hearts and putting it in their inward parts, and about him being their God and them being my people. This new covenant he made with the two houses was not like the one he made with their fathers, which was given on tablets of stone. That is what made it new. The new covenant that Yeshua gave in remembrance of his death has nothing to do with Jeremiah 31. Why don't you read Hebrews 9:16 through 22, then go to Exodus 24:3-8, then you will understand what made Yeshua's covenant new. According to what Hebrews 9:22 says, without the shedding of blood, there is no remission. Now read Matthew 26:27-29, and you should understand what the new covenant Yeshua made is all about. It is safe to say that Matthew is stating unequivocally that Yeshua made a once-and-for-all atonement for sin, replacing the Old Testament sin atonement.

Genesis 26:5 says Abraham “obeyed my voice, kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes and my laws.” Coincidentally the same terms are used here that Moses used many years later - mitzvah, chuqqah, and Torah.

[@BibliayFe]

fake news , i had a video on that Abraham didn't follow the law. first of all, he and Sarah were brothers, so you are debunked

[@shawn-wr8ux]

does not mean they kept torah. this is terrible hermeneutics

[@matthewford4050]

The word Torah has come to be defined as the law of Moses. But this is incorrect. As you clearly showed above. Abraham did not keep the law of Moses, as he was married to his sister (his fathers daughter, but not his mother). Also, Jacob had two sisters to wife, so he did not keep the law of Moses. To infer that the word Torah is equivalent to the Law of Moses, is simply wrong. And you pointed that out above. Do you believe it is acceptable to have more than one wife? God even told David, I would have given you more wives.

[@JohnRobinson-qo7qb]

@@matthewford4050 Yes you raise some good questions that I can’t fully answer. But the bottom line is that we hear and obey the voice of the Almighty which is described as walking in the spirit. Moses quarantined lepers which was a good thing, but Yahshua on the other hand healed the lepers and ten at a time. That’s a big difference. But today we’re back in the quarantine mode for the most part because there has been a great falling away from the truth and the power that goes with the truth.

[@matthewford4050]

@@JohnRobinson-qo7qb Interesting... i was discussing this post from you with my wife. It seems to me there is certainly a difference between being a follower of Moses vs Jesus Christ. As you detailed a very interesting difference. It seems many have gone back to being Moses disciple and have left being a disciple of Christ. Jesus wants us to be healers, and ministries of reconciliation. Also what comes to mind is that many are respecter of persons. So in closing we need the mind of Christ not the law of Moses.

I think a big key word, especially when gentiles feel lead to keep certain aspects of the mosaic law, is Identity. Taking those things on a an identity instead of in Christ alone is dangerous in so many ways (ive even heard it argued that torahism was the right way even for gentiles because Jesus was jewish then we need to be like him in His jewish practice and so their identity was in christ bucause they’ve taken on a jewish identity. Really sabbath was more lord in their life then Jesus was.) i even sat in a messianic synagogue that the message was the church meant assembly of Israel and said our identity needed to be rooted in Israel (with a quick not very loud ‘of course your personal value comes from christ’ and then repeated the identity needs to be in Israel. Also preached that believers where grafted into Israel and not Christ

[@deespence8629]

Looking into the Hebrew roots movement I’ve come to the conclusion that these people seem to have a need to earn their salvation. I don’t think they are thinking that way- but it seems clear to me! We have to be so mindful of adding anything to the cross of Christ and what He did for us….✝️🙏

[@justinbutcher44]

Respectfully, Christians who do not observe Torah would never say it is okay to lie cheat or steal. By avoiding such things, are they earning their salvation? It is no different with many Torah persuant Christians. The difference being, that we believe that eating pork, not observing Sabbath, etc is still sin, so we avoid doing things that we believe Scripture teaches as sin. That stated, earning salvation through works, which is wrong, is not just limited to those who practice Torah. This same error can be found in the Christian Church as well. In the end, none of us can do anything to earn our salvation, but that does not mean that we do not pursue righteous living because of our salvation. It is through walking as Jesus walked (though we may disagree on what that means) that we are partakers in the sanctification process on Earth. Blessings to you and yours.

Israel was always a nation of faith. Jacob was given his new name after confessing his own name. This was an act of repentance as Jacob had been a deciever. The covenant was made with the descendants of Israel. Once you are grafted in you are no longer of the nations but of His one nation of faith. These "laws" are instructions for life. They are eternal and define what love is. They are not too hard for you, not too far for you. The problem with the first covenant was with the people. The instructions were written on hearts of stone. Now in the new covenant the same instructions are written on a circumcised heart, a heart of flesh. We are obedient to the one we have faith in. I will show you my faith by my works. These are good works. He is the king of Israel! You're king! Abide in Him! Sin is transgression of the law. If you love me keep my commandments and they are not burdensome. He who says he loves me and does not keep my commandments is a liar and the truth is not in Him. His commandments are holy meaning set apart. We are called to be holy. Your law is righteousness, a light before my path. He is the light! He was without sin so death could not hold Him. You are drawn to the light! He is the living Torah! Paul kept the commandments. He says imitate me as I immitate Christ. Paul is encouraging the Corinthians to keep the commandments and not worry about being judged by the pagans they came out from. The temple instructions are a shadow of the one in heaven. Jesus' fulfillment means to make more fully known, not to do away with. He was a picture of the sacrifices. They were always pointing to Him. He who turns his ear away from hearing the Torah, even his prayer is an abomination.

[@ronmiller2954]

I'm a new comer to your fantistic videos, and working to get through them all eventually. I agree with your theology but it raises some questions. Im also not as knowledgeable as some here but I'll do my best. I'm unsure that the terms 'salvation' or 'atonement' mean the same to Christians as Torah keeping Jews. The torah could not deal with original sin but the 'sinless' sacrifice of Christ could. For me this gives the theology of baptism (of the holy Spirit) more meaning as in it we 'die' (to original sin) and are reborn without that sin. Also I have been taught that Christians go to be with God when they die because their sin (and sins) are covered by Jesus. Jews (go to the grave upon death because the Torah does not justify them fully before God. Are these reasonable assumptions in your opinion? Thank you.

[@TheBiblicalRoots]

Hi, Ron. Great observations. The Torah does provide a method for atoning for sin in Leviticus 16. This introduces a huge problem for Torah-keeping Jews because ever since AD 70 when the temple was destroyed, they have had no Torah-observant way to atone for sin, because Lev. 16 requires the high priest to sacrifice animals at the temple on Yom Kippur. And there is no longer a temple, nor a priesthood, and therefore no sacrifices can be made. So a new type of Judaism, called rabbinical Judaism, arose after the temple was destroyed. Of course, Hebrews 10 tells us that the atonement given in Leviticus 16 was not meant forever, and did not fully cleanse the sinner. It had to be repeated every year! But Christ was our atoning sacrifice "once for all" (Heb. 10), and therefore, under His New Covenant, "there is no longer any offering for sin" (Heb 10:18). And this sacrifice was so powerful that it was retroactive! It even saved those under the Mosaic covenant. "Therefore [Jesus] is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant" (Heb. 9:15, cf Rom. 3:25). As far as salvation, modern Judaism stresses the fact that instead of “salvation,” one’s relationship with God has to be based repentance, good deeds, and a life of devotion. Here's a helpful article: www.chosenpeople.com/salvation-as-interpreted-by-judaism/ Blessings, Rob

[@ronmiller2954]

Thank you for taking the time to write such a clear response, and thank you for the reference to the article. I agree that the Yom Kippur sacrifices did not fully cleanse from sin as you said. I am trying to reconcile effect of original sin on humanity and sins imputed through the Mosaic law. Is it fair to say that to fully cleanse from sin, Yom Kippur sacrifices would have to deal with a sinful nature incurred through 'origin sin' as well as infractions incurred by disobedience to the law? Jesus taught that the remedy for our sinful nature is to be reborn. I don't see how the Jewish sacrifice could effect humanities sinful nature. It was focused on atonement from infractions done under the Mosaic law. I was taught that it Yom Kippur sacrifices 'covered' sins until the real sacrifice could fully cleanse was completed. Then the imperfect sacrifices could point to Christ's perfect sacrifice Thank you for your videos and taking the time to reply.

Have you done anything on Zechariah 14? One argument I hear a lot in favor of Torahism is that part of Zachariah as a way to argue that the Law will be put back in place over all peoples for the Millennial reign.

[@TheBiblicalRoots]

Hi, Alle! I don't have a video on Zach 14, no. Zechariah chapters 12-14 are a mosaic of poems and images about the coming Messianic Kingdom. And, as I'm sure you know, when we interpret prophetic imagery and symbolism, we need to be careful not to interpret it in conflict with what Yeshua and the New Testament teach. So if we want to interpret Zechariah 14:16-19 to mean that literally everyone from every nation will go up to the literal city of Jerusalem and keep the literal Feast of Booths every year, what does that mean? For one thing, it means Jerusalem is going to experience horrible gridlock traffic when the entirety of the world’s population arrives! It also means that the Feast of Booths will be celebrated. And that’s it. This passage does not say that the Law of Moses will be in re-enacted, or that any of the other feasts will be celebrated, or that there will be a temple, or a priesthood, or any of the other Mosaic requirements. In fact, because of what the NT teaches, we know it _cannot_ mean those things. For example, if the Mosaic sacrifice for the atonement of sin (Lev 16) will be renewed in the end times, it would make the book of Hebrews false, which says, "there is no longer any offering for sin" (Heb 10:18) because the sacrifice of Jesus was "once for all" (Heb 10:10). Blessings, Rob

Great video R.L.! I have a question regarding Revelation 14:12. I have a HRM family member who says we are saved by grace through faith but they use this verse to also support their claim that we must be obedient to the commandments on top of our faith to be saved. From your perspective of the context around this verse, does this mean every single commandment? Including the Law of Moses? Or the commandments expressed under the new covenant only? Thanks and let us all keep seeking truth!

[@TheBiblicalRoots]

Thanks, JR! The question I would ask about Rev 14:12 is _which_ commandments are being referred to? The rest of the NT teaches that followers of Jesus are now under the "Law of Christ (Gal 6:16), and that "we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code" (Rom 7:6), and that we are not required to keep the food laws, feasts or Sabbaths (Col 2:16-17), and that Gentiles followers of Jesus are not required to be circumcised or keep the Law of Moses (Acts 15:1-29), and that we are now under a better ministry and a better covenant than Moses (Heb 8:6), and Jesus is our better High Priest who made a better sacrifice (Heb 7:11-28). Based on that, I believe Rev 14:12 is bets interpreted as referring to the commands of God for His people under Jesus, not the commands given under Moses. Blessings, Rob

[@sundownsam3369]

If your family member told you that they are saved by grace through faith, that is a conclusive statement. So, for him to add, but must be "obedient to the commandments on top of faith to be saved" would be an oxymoron statement, unless you misunderstood him, or that is what you added to his statement.

​@@TheBiblicalRoots Again, Rob, you are pulling verses out of context. I have previously responded to you with scriptures on the verses you quoted, but you just ignore the context, continuing to pull verses out of context to support your distorted views. As for Revelations 14:12, it states, "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God and the faith of Yeshua." You said you believe it is best interpreted as referring to the commandment of God for his people under Yeshua, not the commands given under Moses. Is that your opinion, or is that what the verse is implying? Not only did you make an oxymoron statement, but you are nailing the God of Israel through the Brit-Chadashah, having the Son of God go against his Father. Have I told you many times that God was clear when he first spoke? Revelation 14:12 makes it clear that it is talking about God's commandment and the faith of Yeshua. Why didn't it say the commandment and faith of Yeshua? Continue to interpret scriptures to support your distorted views and continue to deliberately speak against God's law. Just remember what I said about Romans 1. It is sad that Gentile believers are falling into your distorted views, and that is because they themselves probably do not read the Scriptures. If I ever see you passing by me, I will point my finger toward you and say these exact words: "He has distorted and continues to distort the truth of God's word, what God made clear when he first spoke."

Great work as always, sir, but I’d respectfully disagree on one key point. The Old Covenant did not fully pass away until the destruction of the temple in AD 70. This is why we see so much leniency in keeping the old law in New Testament because it was a special period of time. Even Hebrews which was written before this says, Hebrews 8:13 KJV [13] In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.” Please refer to Don Preston’s body of work in this question as I am no expert, haha.

[@TheBiblicalRoots]

Thanks! I would certainly agree that the destruction of the temple was the "period at the end of the sentence," so to speak regarding the end of the old covenant. But I believe it's requirements officially ended (as requirements) at the Resurrection. So the 40-year (or so) period between the Resurrection and the destruction of the temple was sort of a winding down period. Best, Rob

[@OutsideTheCamp_Heb1313]

Is this your way to argue it away that the apostles like Paul took a Nazarite vow and offered sacrifices to prove he kept Torah and wasn’t teaching others to stop following Torah? The Bible isn’t clear on it because sin is transgression of the law. We aren’t allowed to sin now. Paul says, do we overthrow the law because of our faith? God FORBID! I wouldn’t know what sin is without the law! Hebrews verse you are referring to is a “transfer” not change in the priesthood laws. If you read it in context, he is saying that the Aaronic priesthood has flaws. It is based on physical descent and they can be corrupt like kings can. The Melchizedek priesthood is based on righteousness so the priests are always righteous. The high priest had to offer a sacrifice for himself first and then the others. Our high priest doesn’t. Also notice that Hebrews actually instated that the levites still offer gifts according to the law and Jesus couldn’t be a priest according to the law on earth but that doesn’t apply in heaven. So the transfer of the law that is “getting ready to vanish” meaning it hasn’t yet, is when we are priests on earth with Him. Not based on the flesh. So the laws are still the same but someone else receives the authority. Don’t be deceived… not one hot or tittle will pass from the law until heaven and earth pass! It can be a deceptive teaching that the pagan leaders including Constantine thrusted into the church and caused lawlessness in His people. Christians didn’t celebrate their birthdays until about 400 ad and Origen was disgusted by them. He said the Holy Spirit should make us repulse them. What changed? Well they started celebrating the birth of the “Son” on the day the pagans worshipped the birth of the “Sun”. Exact day. Even though they knew it wasn’t that time. They said, “well if we celebrate our saviors birth, why not ours?” The prophets cursed the day they were born and bless the day of their death. Same with First fruits/Easter. This is all documented facts. To disregard it is to disregard historical facts. When did we veer off into lawlessness? When pagan Roman Greeks took over the church and infiltrated it with paganism and antisemitism. They wanted to have nothing to do with them. So get rid of all the teachings to avoid any connection with them. 😞

The Messiah would be a false prophet if He came to “change God’s laws”. He wouldn’t pass the Deuteronomy 13 test. No wonder Jews hate Him….

If you allow the Spirit of God to teach and guide you when studying you will understand Scriptural truth, unless you are one who falls into the teachings of man." If you do not read or ignore what I posted it tells me one thing, what you learn is of man. Take my post and ask Rob to explain it to you. Once again, Rob, you are distorting the Scriptures. You are either ignorant of true scriptural truth or you are deliberately distorting the Scriptures. I think the latter. Even if you read it, you will still deny it because it appears that you will not allow the Spirit of God to correct you through the Scriptures. Jeremiah 31:31-34 is clear about the New Covenant. The New Covenant is about God writing his law in their hearts and putting it in their inward parts, and about him being their God and them being my people. This new covenant he made with the two houses was not like the one he made with their fathers, which was given on tablets of stone. That is what made it new. The new covenant that Yeshua gave in remembrance of his death has nothing to do with Jeremiah 31. Why don't you read Hebrews 9:16 through 22, then go to Exodus 24:3-8, then you will understand what made Yeshua's covenant new. According to what Hebrews 9:22 says, without the shedding of blood, there is no remission. Now read Matthew 26:27-29, and you should understand what the new covenant Yeshua made is all about. It is safe to say that Matthew is stating unequivocally that Yeshua made a once-and-for-all atonement for sin, replacing the Old Testament sin atonement.

Paul spoke to those who knew the law, but those who are unlearned and unstable twist his writings to their own destruction. Are you suggesting we can remember the sabbath on any day we choose? Is Sunday a holy day? Paul told the “gentile”Corinthians that all our “fathers” were under the cloud,and all passed through the sea. The Ephesians were referred to as Gentiles in times past but upon their conversion they became part of the commonwealth of Israel. The Egyptians suffered disease as a consequence of their disobedience. The Cannanites etc were driven out of their homeland because of disobedience. But there were exceptions like some of the Egyptians who came out with the Israelites and Rahab and her family.

The New Covenant comes with the New Commandment from Jesus, "Love one another as I have loved you". This is the Law of Christ, to love one another as I have loved you. There is a distinct difference from the Old Covenant Commandment which states, "Love your neighbor as you love yourself". Since the New Covenant comes with the New Commandment which is the Law of Christ to love one another as he loved you, does this effectively summarize all of the moral laws of the Old Covenant?

Hi Franklin. I believe Gentiles are grafted into what I would call "spiritual Israel," in other words the family or people of God. We are adopted as sons and daughters. But we are not grafted into national Israel, we don't become Israelites or ethnic Jews through faith in Christ. Jewish believers in Jesus remain Jews in the kingdom of God. Gentiles remain Gentiles.

Shalom! Disproving R L Solberg claims in this video: For some reason youtube won't allow me post the whole comment so I'll have to divide it into 2 comments. In the minute 4:45-4:55 Solberg claims and I quote "God made this Covenant exclusively with the Israelites, gentiles were not part of this Covenant". Let's see if his claim is true or false from the Torah. Deuteronomy 29: 10-15 "10 All of you are standing here today in the presence of Yahweh your Elohim. The heads of your tribes,[c] your leaders, your officers, and all the men of Israel are here. 11 Your children, your wives, and the foreigners who cut wood and carry water in your camp are also here. 12 You are ready to accept the terms and conditions of the promise that Yahweh your Elohim is giving you today. 13 With this promise Yahweh your Elohim will confirm today that you are his people and that he is your Elohim. This is what he told you, and this is what he promised your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob with an oath. 14 You aren’t the only people to receive this promise and its conditions. 15 It is for those of you who are standing here with us today in the presence of Yahweh our Elohim and also for those who are not here today." Verse 11 says clearly that the FOREIGNERS are included in this Covenant. Now let's see if those foreigners are to have their laws different than the Torah of Israel or not. Numbers 15:15-16 "There is one law for the whole assembly: for you and foreigners who are living with you. It is a permanent law for future generations. As far as Yahweh is concerned, you and foreigners are the same. 16 The instructions and rules are the same for you as well as foreigners who are living with you.” The verses clearly states that Israel and the FOREIGNERS are to have 1 and the SAME LAW. Now let's move to the Prophets. Isaiah 56: 3-8 "Foreigners who have joined Yahweh should not say, “Yahweh will separate us from his people.” Castrated men should not say, “We’re only dead trees!” 4 This is what Yahweh says: I will remember the castrated men who keep my Sabbaths, choose what pleases me, and hold fast my covenant,.[a] 5 Inside my house and within my walls, I will give them something better than sons and daughters. I will give them a monument and a name. I will give them a permanent name that will not be forgotten. 6 And I will remember the foreigners who have joined Yahweh to worship him, to love Yahweh’s name, and to be his servants. All of them will keep the Sabbath from becoming unholy and hold fast my covenant. 7 Then I will bring them to my holy mountain and make them happy in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on my altar, because my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations. 8 Adonay Yahweh, who gathers the scattered people of Israel, declares, “I will gather still others besides those I have already gathered.” Verse 3 and 6 clearly states that the FOREIGNERS are included in the Covenant and they are keeping ALL the terms of the Covenant including the SABBATH. In the minute 11:03- 11:09 Solberg claims and I quote "The New Testament nowhere teaches that animal sacrifices are required or a Priesthood or a Temple" Let's see if his claim is true or false from the New Testament itself. Hebrews 8 tells us clearly that If Jesus (Yeshua) was on Earth He cannot be a priest since He is not from the Tribe of Levi but Judah. Let's see verses 3-4 "For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; thus it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. 4 Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law." And Hebrews 7: 14 " For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests." All the Apostles after the Resurrection of Jesus (Yeshua) continued to go to the Temple and even offer Sacrifices. Acts 21: 18-26 "On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present. 19 After greeting them, he related one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry. 20 And when they heard it, they glorified God. And they said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed. They are all zealous for the law, 21 and they have been told about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or walk according to our customs. 22 What then is to be done? They will certainly hear that you have come. 23 Do therefore what we tell you. We have four men who are under a vow; 24 take these men and purify yourself along with them and pay their expenses, so that they may shave their heads. Thus all will know that there is nothing in what they have been told about you, but that you yourself also live in observance of the law. 25 But as for the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent a letter with our judgment that they should abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled,[d] and from sexual immorality.” 26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day he purified himself along with them and went into the temple, giving notice when the days of purification would be fulfilled and the offering presented for each one of them." Verse 26 clearly states that Paul offered purification sacrifices at the Temple. Also Verses that clearly shows us that the Disciples contiued going to the Temple after the Resurrection of Jesus (Yeshua) Acts 2: 46 "And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts," Acts 3:1 "Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour." Acts 5: 12 "Now many signs and wonders were regularly done among the people by the hands of the apostles. And they were all together in Solomon's Portico." Acts 5: 42 " And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and preaching that the Christ is Jesus." Acts 22: 17 "“When I had returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, I fell into a trance." In minute 11:14 Solberg quotes Romans 7:6 claiming that serving in the Spirit is a new way not related to the Torah let's see what does the Bible say about living and serving in the Spirit. Romans 8: 7-8 "For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God." Verse 7 clearly states that those who live in the flesh are hostile to God and they CANNOT submit to His Torah or Law unlike those who walk according to the Spirit. Ezekiel 11: 19-20 tells us clearly what the role of Spirit is in the person who follows God "And I will give them one heart, and a new spirit I will put within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh and give them a heart of flesh, 20 that they may walk in my statutes and keep my rules and obey them. And they shall be my people, and I will be their God" And also in the New Testament in Hebrews 8: 10 tells the whole goal of the New Covenant "For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God and they shall be my people."

[@TheBiblicalRoots]

This is one of the strongest responses I’ve seen regarding the Gentiles and the Sinai covenant. Well done, sir! Allow me to respond. You’re obviously correct that Deut 29:10-15 references foreigners living among Israel. This passage. comes during the renewing of the covenant that occurred after 40 years of wandering in the wilderness and the first generation of Israelites who were at Sinai had died off. And if we cherry-picked this verse to build a theological position, you would have an excellent point. But we can’t read this apart from everything else the Torah says and teaches about foreigners and their relationship to the covenant. For example, let’s go back 2 chapters and consider what led up to the passage you quoted. In Deut 27 Moses told the people of Israel to split up to pronounce the blessings and curses. “When you have crossed the Jordan, these tribes shall stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph and Benjamin. And these tribes shall stand on Mount Ebal to pronounce curses: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan and Naphtali” (Deut 27:13-14). Where are the foreigners in this list? And then in Deut 28 those blessings and curses are listed. And the tribes of Israel are told: “if you do not obey the LORD your God and do not carefully follow all his commands and decrees I am giving you today” (Deut 28:15), one of the curses they will fall under is that, “The foreigners who reside among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower. They will lend to you, but you will not lend to them. They will be the head, but you will be the tail” (Deut 28:43-44). So it’s really quite difficult, I would actually say _impossible_ to read the entire Torah and conclude that Yahweh's covenant at Sinai was made with the Gentiles. *RE: The “one law and one rule” in Numbers 15* - This is not a reference to the entirety of the Law of Moses but the common rules for offering sacrifices in Israel. And yet, even when bound by the same rules about sacrifice, the Torah maintains a distinction between the “native Israelite” (v.13) and the “stranger” (v. 14). Indeed, the fact that the Torah refers to non-Israelites as “sojourners,” “foreigners,” and “strangers” confirms they were considered other than Israel. *RE Isaiah 56: 3-8* - Yahweh allowed foreigners to participate in His ways and His worship up to a point. He never afforded them the full rights and privileges of the Israelites. Though not given full citizenship in Israel, they were protected and-if they maintained ritual purity-even allowed to participate in the Passover (Ex 12:47-48) and other sacrifices (Num 15:14). *Re: sacrifices in the NT* - I stand by my statement "The New Testament nowhere teaches that animal sacrifices are *required* or a Priesthood or a Temple." I don’t deny that they _happened._ But Christians are never instructed to make sacrifices. And, moreover, Hebrews 10 shows us that Jesus was our sacrifice “once for all” (v. 10) and “sacrifice for sin is no longer necessary” (v. 18). *RE: Living and serving in the Spirit* - You really didn’t make a point here (that I could follow). But I noticed you did read the Law of Moses into Romans 8:8, which I disagree with. Blessings, Rob

@@TheBiblicalRoots Thank you, sir for your swift reply. I presented in my 2 posts 19 different passages from both the New and the Old Testament and I was really hoping you would comment on each one of them but you just commented on 5 passages out of the 19. Anyway, please allow me now to respond to each and every single point you mentioned in order and in details. I noticed that you just reject and disagree with the Scriptures presented but you never even offered your interpretation or explanation like a person who says no it is not like this but I don’t know what it is like. I really hoped that you would address all the 19 passages mentioned. Now let’s begin in addressing all your points in order: You mentioned cherry-picking in regards to Deuteronomy 29:10-15 then you mentioned Deuteronomy 27:13-14 and you asked “Where are the foreigners in this list?” Let’s see where the foreigners are, Exodus 12: 19 and if I am not mistaken Exodus 12 is before your mentioned text in Deuteronomy 27, here what it says “For seven days no leaven is to be found in your houses. If anyone eats what is leavened, that person will be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a sojourner or a native of the land." Sojourners are mentioned already while the Israelites were still in Egypt. Also Exodus 12: 38 "A mixed multitude also went up with them, and very much livestock, both flocks and herds." Now please allow me to let the Prophet Ezekiel also answer you in Ezekiel 47: 21-23 “So you shall divide this land among you according to the tribes of Israel. 22 You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the sojourners who reside among you and have had children among you. They shall be to you as native-born children of Israel. With you they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel. 23 In whatever tribe the sojourner resides, there you shall assign him his inheritance, declares the Lord GOD.” I believe now you know where the foreigners are in the 12 Tribes list. You then mentioned Deuteronomy 28:15, 43-44 and you said and I quote “So it’s really quite difficult, I would actually say impossible to read the entire Torah and conclude that Yahweh's covenant at Sinai was made with the Gentiles.” Even though that’s not what I wrote, please check my very 1st comment, I wrote this “Verse 11 says clearly that the FOREIGNERS are included in this Covenant.” I wrote included not made solely with them. You then mentioned Numbers 15 and you wrote and I quote “This is not a reference to the entirety of the Law of Moses but the common rules for offering sacrifices in Israel.” Well let’s see if your claim is true or not. Leviticus 24:22 “You shall have the same rule for the sojourner and for the native, for I am the LORD your God.” Does the whole chapter of Leviticus 24 speak also about the offering sacrifices in Israel?? Then you wrote and I quote “And yet, even when bound by the same rules about sacrifice, the Torah maintains a distinction between the “native Israelite” (v.13) and the “stranger” (v. 14). Indeed, the fact that the Torah refers to non-Israelites as “sojourners,” “foreigners,” and “strangers” confirms they were considered other than Israel.” Let’s see if this claim is true or not, Leviticus 19:34 “You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.” How about Leviticus 18:26 “But you shall keep my statutes and my rules and do none of these abominations, either the native or the stranger who sojourns among you”. Exodus 12:49 “There shall be one law for the native and for the stranger who sojourns among you.” Numbers 15:29 “You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the people of Israel and for the stranger who sojourns among them.” Exodus 20:10 “but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates” Leviticus 16:29 “And it shall be a statute to you forever that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict yourselves[b] and shall do no work, either the native or the stranger who sojourns among you.” Leviticus 17:10 “If any one of the house of Israel or of the strangers who sojourn among them eats any blood, I will set my face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from among his people.” Leviticus 24:16 “ Whoever blasphemes the name of the LORD shall surely be put to death. All the congregation shall stone him. The sojourner as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.” Numbers 35:15 “These six cities shall be for refuge for the people of Israel, and for the stranger and for the sojourner among them, that anyone who kills any person without intent may flee there.” Numbers 19:10 “And the one who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes and be unclean until evening. And this shall be a perpetual statute for the people of Israel, and for the stranger who sojourns among them.” It doesn’t get clearer than this. The Native Israelite and the Sojourner are to be treated the same and obey the same Torah. Then you mentioned the Isaiah 56:3-8 and I quote “Yahweh allowed foreigners to participate in His ways and His worship up to a point. He never afforded them the full rights and privileges of the Israelites. Though not given full citizenship in Israel, they were protected and-if they maintained ritual purity-even allowed to participate in the Passover” Yet you didn’t provide any Scriptural evidence to your empty claim. Please provide any verses that support your claim that foreigners were allowed to participate in Yah.’s worship up to a point. Or please provide any verses that show that they were never afforded full rights and privileges of the Israelites, unfounded claims don’t work. Then you wrote and I quote “I stand by my statement "The New Testament nowhere teaches that animal sacrifices are required or a Priesthood or a Temple." I don’t deny that they happened. But Christians are never instructed to make sacrifices. And, moreover, Hebrews 10 shows us that Jesus was our sacrifice “once for all” (v. 10) and “sacrifice for sin is no longer necessary” (v. 18).” Again another unsubstantiated claim, please provide any proof, any verses that support your claim that Christians are never instructed to make sacrifices. You then said and I quote “Living and serving in the Spirit - You really didn’t make a point here (that I could follow). But I noticed you did read the Law of Moses into Romans 8:8, which I disagree with.” Well let’s read the verse again Romans 8:7-8 “For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.” Paul is comparing between unbelievers and believers. Unbelievers set their minds on the flesh and can NEVER submit to God’s Law unlike the believers who walk according to the Spirit and as a result submit to God’s Law. Hopefully now you were able to follow the point. Regarding Romans 8:8 of course you can disagree as much you like but your disagreement doesn’t change what God said in it nor what He said in Jeremiah 31:31-34 which Hebrews 8:8 is quoting.

14:48 “No believer in Jesus-Jewish or Gentile-is under any obligation to keep the law of Moses. Not as a matter of salvation, or OBEDIENCE, or righteousness.” I have a question about this statement. Is the law of Moses, the law of God? Why, did “it seem good to the Holy Spirit and the apostles not to burden Gentiles, who were turning to God, not to be burdened with anything beyond the following REQUIREMENTS: • abstain from food sacrificed to idols • from contact with blood • from the meat of strangled animals • from sexual immorality” (Acts 15:20,28,29; 21:25) And why did Paul go beyond the “anything beyond” listed above, to tell those who were buried and raised with Messiah, in Colossians 3, to do the very things listed in the 10 commandments?: • Don’t be Idolaters (v. 5) • Don’t be sexually immoral = adulterers (v. 5) • Don’t be greedy (covetous) (v. 5) • Don’t lie (v. 9) • Honor your Father and Mother (Eph 6:2) • Don’t steal (Eph 4:28) “Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things, God’s wrath comes on the disobedient. Therefore do not be partners with them.” (Eph 5:6) It seems that believers in Jesus ARE expected (obligated) to be obedient to many of the commands of God, doesn’t it? -the ones carried over from the OT to the NT. Obedience to God’s laws, that the Holy Spirit has determined are still applicable, is proof of true faith. And God’s wrath will come upon the ones who are disobedient, as well as their partners. (Eph 5:6) “Circumcision and uncircumcision is nothing. Keeping God’s commands is what counts.” (1 Cor 7:19) So, whether we’re Jew or Gentile Christians, it appears that obeying God’s commands laid out for us in the New Testament IS seemingly obligatory if we don’t want to endure the wrath of God for our disobedience. Obedience is proof of our love and faith. Disobedience is proof of our lack of love, and no faith. (Jn 14 and 15) Jesus said obedience to His commands is also part of making disciples-teaching them to obey everything He (LORD, Jesus, Holy Spirit) commanded us. (Mt 28:20)….unless you believe that Jesus is not the same LORD, or the “Word of the LORD” of the Old Testament law and prophets. Are you saying this “Great Commission-obedience” that Jesus instructed, is not obligatory for believers? Are you saying that after all that the LORD Jesus did for us, we are not obligated, in any way, to obey the commands laid out for us in the NT, without the fear of God’s wrath? 🤔 We’re warned not to be deceived about this…😬 (Eph 5:6)

The terms "added" and "until" means the "law" cannot be eternal or perpetual. This is temporal language that demarcates a specific period of durarion for a specific purpose. A huge problem arises when people transpose the meanings of words that share the same token [law] but have a different meaning in different context or are simply referring to a different law. If one makes the claim that law=law therefore all appearances of the term law must mean the same thing in all instances, is a lexical fallacy. Sadly many mistaken doctrinal errors or misunderstandings of scriptures are logically fallacious or incoherant on their face, and also many critiques of doctrines are founded in misapplied logic...

I do enjoy your gentle approach to these kind of discussions... With regards to Jesus life under the OT... It seems that His life is not important to Christians, much like the whole OT, other than for teaching how He fulfilled it.... Paul's life is actually a Christian's example.... It seems that Paul's life and teachings are necessary for salvation.... Am I misunderstanding you?, or does that seem more in line with Christian doctrine that you hold too? Thanks again for your kind and caring way of dealing with these issues.

I would agree with the general observation, Craig, that the life Paul lived is an example for followers of Jesus, and that Paul pointed us to Christ not himself.

Continuing my previous comment of Disproving R L Solberg's claims in this video: In the minute 12:05 Solberg claims and I quote " They aren't necessarily a matter of Salvation or Righteousness or Obedience." He got it right with the Salvation part but not with Righteousness nor Obedience and let's see from the New Testament if his claims are true or false. 1 John 3:4 actually defines for us what SIN is, it is the breaking of the Torah " Everyone who commits sin also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness" Let's see how did Jesus (Yeshua) tell us to show Him our love, John 14:15 "“If you love me, hold on to my commands." And Matthew 23: 1-3 tells us what His Commands are "Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples. 2 He said, “The experts in the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. 3 So practice and observe whatever they tell you. But do not do as they do, because they do not practice what they preach." 1 John 2: 3-4 tells us plainly that he who doesn't keep the Torah yet claims to know God is a liar "This is how we know that we have known him: if we keep his commands. 4 The one who says, “I know him,” but does not keep his commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him." And in the same chapter the last verse tells us about Righteousness "If you know that he is righteous, then you know that everyone who does what is right has been born of him." In the minute 12:18 Solberg claims and I quote "And yet nowhere in the New Testament are believers ever commanded to keep the Sabbaths or eat kosher or keep the feasts or to be circumcised." Let's see if his claims are true or false from the New Testament. Acts 15:21 James clealry states that the gentiles will go to the Synagogues Every Sabbath where they will learn the Torah of Moses "For from ancient times Moses has had those who proclaim him in every city, since he is being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.” Let's see also if Paul was teaching the gentiles who want to follow the God of Israel to keep the Law or not Acts 16: 21 "and they are teaching customs that are not lawful for us to accept or practice, since we are Romans.” I wonder what customs was Paul teaching to the Romans!!! Acts 13: 42 clearly states that the gentiles attended the synagogues on the Sabbaths with the Jews "And having gone forth out of the synagogue of the Jews, the nations were calling upon [them] that on the next sabbath these sayings may be spoken to them," Acts 14:1 "And it came to pass in Iconium, that they did enter together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spake, so that there believed both of Jews and Greeks a great multitude;" What are the Greeks doing in the Jewish Synagogue??? Acts 17: 1-4 "When Paul and Silas had traveled through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue. 2 As was his custom, Paul went to the Jews, and on three Sabbath days he led them in a discussion from the Scriptures, 3 explaining and proving that the Christ had to suffer and rise from the dead. He also said, “This Jesus I am proclaiming to you is the Christ.” 4 Some of them were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, as did a great number of God-fearing Greeks and more than a few of the prominent women." What are the God fearing Greeks doing in the Jewish Synagogue on the Sabbath??? Lastly Solberg claims in the minute 13:43 and I quote "You can reject that as a false unbiblical teaching" referring to the Torah. Well of course you can reject anything you want but when it comes to God's Eternal Law, you can only reject it at your own peril! Especially when Jesus gave us a grave warning regarding rejecting the Torah in Matthew 7: 21-23 "`Not every one who is saying to me Lord, lord, shall come into the reign of the heavens; but he who is doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, lord, have we not in thy name prophesied? and in thy name cast out demons? and in thy name done many mighty things? 23 and then I will acknowledge to them, that -- I never knew you, depart from me ye who are working lawlessness." I believe verse 23 is SELF Explanatory. Regrading the verse Solberg quoted in Colossians 2 verse 16 and 17, I believe if he bothered himself a little more and did some research he would have understood that Paul here is actually telling the believers not to worry or fear when they observe the Torah if they are mocked by pagans. Context is Everything! My last advice to brother Solberg is to listen to the warning that someone who knew Paul better than me or him or anyone else living today 2 Peter 3: 15-17 "Bear in mind that the patience of our Lord means salvation-just as our dearly loved brother Paul also wrote to you with the wisdom given to him. 16 He speaks about these matters in all of his letters. Some things in them are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist (as they also do with the rest of the Scriptures)-to their own destruction. 17 Since you already know all this, loved ones, be on your guard so that you are not led astray by the error of the lawless and lose your sure footing"

Continuing my replies … *Re: Keeping the Torah traditions as a matter of righteousness or obedience* - 1 John 3:4 does not define sin as “the breaking of the Torah.” If sin is defined merely as “breaking the Torah,” then Adam and Eve did not sin, because they never broke any Torah laws. In context, John is talking about general lawlessness here. You are reading *Torah* into the text where it was not mentioned or intended. The same is true of the other verses you mentioned. Think about it. If keeping the Torah rituals is required as a matter of righteousness, then you’re saying that the righteousness Jesus gives us is ineffective and insufficient without our help. “But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.” (Rom 3:21-22) *RE: NT does not command Torah practices* - Acts 15:21 does not “clearly state that the gentiles will go to the Synagogues Every Sabbath where they will learn the Torah of Moses." Far from it! Jame's reasoning in that verse is not clearly defined and a matter of no small debate. And none of the reasonable interpretations include the one you suggested. There is zero evidence anywhere else in the NT that Gentile followers of Jesus ever did or were expected to learn and keep the Torah. Here’s a video I made on that very verse that disproves your theory: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXWmoKqIibR6gJY I’ve noticed a pattern in your responses where you often conflate _descriptive_ and _prescriptive_ verses. For example, the fact that the text describes Gentiles in the synagogues does not imply that all Gentiles are required to go to the synagogues. And, in fact, the God-fearing Gentiles who were in the synagogues were Gentiles who wanted to worship the God of Israel. And Paul and the apostles went there to tell them about Jesus, not to require them to keep Torah. And the fact that the text describes the Jewish apostles and disciples keeping Torah traditions does not imply that all Christians are required to keep Torah traditions. Doing so is permitted for Christians, but it is not required. Shalom, Rob

And how is it different from God’s Torah? You also say that Adam and Eve never broke the Torah. If you do a little just a little research in any dictionary you will find that the word Torah means Instructions so anything God says or commands is Torah or Instruction so in that sense Adam and Eve broke the Torah or the Instruction that was given to them. You then said and I quote “You are reading Torah into the text where it was not mentioned or intended. The same is true of the other verses you mentioned.” I am not really it is everywhere in the Scriptures, you just need to open your eyes and read the plain text. You then said and I quote “Think about it. If keeping the Torah rituals is required as a matter of righteousness, then you’re saying that the righteousness Jesus gives us is ineffective and insufficient without our help.” Let me make an important clarification here. I never said that we or any human being can be saved by keeping the Torah. Salvation is by Faith ALONE yet this Faith needs to have fruits and obeying is that fruit. In other words Faith is the root and Obedience is the fruit. Regarding righteousness let’s see what the Bible says regarding it. Deuteronomy 6:25 “And it will be righteousness for us, if we are careful to do all this commandment before the LORD our God, as he has commanded us.’” Ezekiel 14:14 “even if these three men were in its midst-Noah, Daniel, and Job-by their righteousness they would save only their own lives, declares the LORD God.” Luke 1:6 “They were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and righteous decrees of the Lord.” Matthew 5: 20 “Indeed I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and experts in the law, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” Luke 23: 50 “Now there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea, who was a member of the Council, a good and righteous man.” 1 John 2:29 “if ye know that he is righteous, know ye that everyone doing the righteousness, of him hath been begotten.” Is it about time we know the difference between Salvation and Righteousness? You quoted Romans 3: 21-22 which talks about the Righteousness of God, didn’t apostle John know about that when he wrote his 1 letter in last verse in his 2nd chapter? You then wrote and I quote “NT does not command Torah practices - Acts 15:21 does not “clearly state that the gentiles will go to the Synagogues Every Sabbath where they will learn the Torah of Moses." Far from it! Jame's reasoning in that verse is not clearly defined and a matter of no small debate. And none of the reasonable interpretations include the one you suggested.” You just reject my interpretation without giving any alternatives or explanations of yours. Like someone saying this statement is wrong but I don’t know what the right statement is. Well at least I gave the interpretation that is in a full harmony with the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation, but you sir, provided nothing, you just deny and reject. Then you made me laugh so hard, thank you for that when you wrote and I quote “There is zero evidence anywhere else in the NT that Gentile followers of Jesus ever did or were expected to learn and keep the Torah. Here’s a video I made on that very verse that disproves your theory: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXWmoKqIibR6gJY” and you fully ignored the dozen verses I quoted in my post which emphatically shows that the Gentiles were attending the Jewish Synagogues every Sabbath in the Book of Acts. Then you end with the following and I quote “And Paul and the apostles went there to tell them about Jesus, not to require them to keep Torah.” Then please explain to me Acts 16:21 “they advocate customs which are not permitted for us to accept or practice,[d] being Romans.” And please tell me what customs was Paul telling the Romans to do? You wrote and I quote “And the fact that the text describes the Jewish apostles and disciples keeping Torah traditions does not imply that all Christians are required to keep Torah traditions. Doing so is permitted for Christians, but it is not required.” I have just showed you that God has 1 people and 1 bride that is Israel He doesn’t have 2 peoples or 2 Brides. And this 1 Nation Israel has 1 Law and Torah for all. And that is clearly shown throughout the Scriptures especially: Ephesians 2: 11-13 “Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcision” by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands- 12 remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.” And Romans 11: 16-22 “If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches. 17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root[c] of the olive tree, 18 do not be arrogant toward the branches. If you are, remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you. 19 Then you will say, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” 20 That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast through faith. So do not become proud, but fear. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. 22 Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off.” Finally, I encourage you to research the reason why for the 1st 300 years after the Resurrection of Christ all His followers were keeping the Torah both Jews and Gentiles until Emperor Constantine came and made a decree to change the Lord’s day from Saturday to Sunday and abolished the Torah observance in the 4th Century. Books that might help you is The Life of Constantine by Eusebius the Historian. Shalom.

@@TheBiblicalRoots Rob, you only post videos to attack God's laws to promote your own distorted views. I have asked you many questions and you shun away from them. The question is, why? Here is the answer: it is not a matter of you being unable to truthfully respond, it is a matter of you deliberately refusing to truthfully respond because you would then have to remove all your videos. ----------------------------------- Let's discuss 1st John 3:4 , The KJV states it this way: Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law; for sin is the transgression of the law. Let me paraphrase it from the Greek language: "Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness." If you read 1 John 3: 1-10, you can deduce (draw a logical conclusion) that this passage is also about sinful behavior and a violation of the law. The Greek word for "lawlessness" is "anomia," which is defined as follows: the condition of one without law, either because they are ignorant of it, or because of violating it. I have a question to ask you. If the law of God does not apply to a person, is that person without law, according to 1st John 3:4? Another thing, don't be ignorant of the phrase "breaking the law" because that phrase does imply violating it. If you drive on a 60 mile an hour highway and you go 65, the term used is that you broke the law. Your phrase "keeping the Torah rituals" continues to depict you as a person who opposes God's law. You are deliberately ignoring that obedience to the law allows one to refrain from sin and to walk a righteous walk, which has nothing to do with making one God's righteousness. Again, you are talking with a twisted tongue. You are a false teacher, and I am stating this with an exclamation mark (!).

Most people seem to miss the point that Jesus made in Luke 24:25, although He was referring to "things concerning himself" the prophets are still true. The point is all the New Testament discussion is distorted, if the new covenant begins at the resurrection, then the bulk of the gospels is still the "old covenant". So the new covenant "starts" at the end of the gospels, goes through Revelation and then the end of many prophets. (Commonly missed future information that Jesus referred to in Luke 24) Further, if Jesus "scolded" His own disciples for not "believing all that the prophets have spoken", then we should know that the prophets not only foretold Jesus death and resurrection, but way beyond into the millennial reign and eternity with the new heavens and the new earth, which in Ezekiel (one of the prophets Jesus is referring to) includes a new temple with sin offerings and levitical priests (Ezekiel 40-48). Do we believe the scriptures or not? So, if Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever, and changes not, then how can "keep the law - law requirement done away with - keep the law in the future", make any sense at all? That is a lot of change. Let's hear Jesus and not be "slow of heart to believe"... If we believe the Word, then it is time to reevaluate everything according to the word. Read the prophets to know the future and line up the past and present accordingly. Also, all this confusion about what was fulfilled. It is easy, just listen to the one we call Saviour. Luke 24:44. He came to fulfill all things written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms.....concerning him. Nothing about ending all commandments (even the "ceremonial" ones) He and His Father gave His people, that would be another major change. We also should remember that Israel was God's wife (Ezekiel 16, Jeremiah 3:14). Not Canaan or the Jebusites, Hittites, Perrizites, etc. But, even they were judged for not keeping the Law of God.(Deuteronomy 9:4-5) Also recall Sodom, major judgment. The law is not just for Israel, (recall the mixt multitude in the wilderness) (It also was not just the Jews in the wilderness, but all 12 tribes) again listen to Jesus at the end of His ministry and even after the resurrection: Matthew 28:20 "the great commission" "Go yea therefore, and teach all nations....Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you..." And what did Jesus command "the multitude, and to his disciples"? (Which seems to cover everyone) Matthew 23:1-3 "Observe and do" whatever is spoken from Moses seat. There are many theories but only one truth. Everyone needs to be aware when someone is talking but not quoting scripture, even if the saying is fun and snappy like "PNR", watch out. Shalom everyone.

And with this being said, without removing the deity of Yeshua, would you agree that the God of Israel has a Son whose name is Yeshua and that God addressed Yeshua as the Son of God? So, if God himself addressed him as the Son of God, that is how we should address him. It is clear from the Scriptures that God extended his mercy to those who had not previously received mercy or been called his people; and he made them his people; and they shall say, "Thou art my God." Who will be their God? The God of Israel! So, if the God of Israel is your God, who is Yeshua? The Son of God, the Savior. Wouldn't you agree? Rob, this is the problem the Jews have with Christianity. They address Yeshua as God, making it appear as if they believe in a polytheistic view of God. The title "Son of God" declares his deity, and the Pharisees tried to stone him because they understood what that meant. When Yeshua is introduced as the Son of God, they will not say you believe in two gods, they will say God does not have a Son, and if they say that, they will have to explain the passage in Proverbs where it says what is his Son's name, if thou canst tell. What you need to do is teach Gentile believers in Christianity without denying deity that they need to introduce Yeshua as the Son of God, not God. Think about what is being said in the above.

[@mcgrewsbrew7535]

If the teaching in this video were true, then we should be able to zoom in a lot. Rob has made a direct distinction here that everything changed specifically at the resurrection of Jesus. So let's zoom in your teaching to only the life of Jesus. He specifically lived and taught before his death and resurrection and he also has direct teachings after his resurrection. Even more specifically, Jesus was with his disciples for 40 days, the exact same amount of time as the mosaic law was established on top of Mt. Sinai. During those 40 days, what did our messiah teach? You quoted part of one of his primary and only recorded teachings with the great comission... but for some reason you left off part of it? Matthew 28:18-20 - And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." Why didn't you keep quoting Jesus' command in your video here? Why did you choose to leave off "observe all that I commanded you?" The reason is because all that Jesus commanded was during his life while he lived and taught perfectly God's law provided at Mt. Sinai. If the resurrection of Jesus is the direct turning point, as you have tried pointing out in this video and teaching, then why did Jesus tell us to make disciples by teaching all of his commands? These commands are equal to John 14:15 where Jesus said "if you love me, you will obey my commandments." Sorry Rob, but according to your own specific timeline you taught here, Jesus teaches against you directly.

Please read, don't allow yourself to be ignorant and I am not involved in the Hebrew roots movement. Once again, Rob, you are distorting the Scriptures. You are either ignorant of true scriptural truth or you are deliberately distorting the Scriptures. I think the latter. Even if you read it, you will still deny it because it appears that you will not allow the Spirit of God to correct you through the Scriptures. Jeremiah 31:31-34 is clear about the New Covenant. The New Covenant is about God writing his law in their hearts and putting it in their inward parts, and about him being their God and them being my people. This new covenant he made with the two houses was not like the one he made with their fathers, which was given on tablets of stone. That is what made it new. The new covenant that Yeshua gave in remembrance of his death has nothing to do with Jeremiah 31. Why don't you read Hebrews 9:16 through 22, then go to Exodus 24:3-8, then you will understand what made Yeshua's covenant new. According to what Hebrews 9:22 says, without the shedding of blood, there is no remission. Now read Matthew 26:27-29, and you should understand what the new covenant Yeshua made is all about. It is safe to say that Matthew is stating unequivocally that Yeshua made a once-and-for-all atonement for sin, replacing the Old Testament sin atonement.

Matthew 5:43 in Old Testament Judaism is not Matthew 5:44 in New Testament Christianity. Matthew 5:43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor [Leviticus 19:18] and hate your enemy [Deuteronomy 23:6].’ 44 But I say to you [Hebrews 7:11-12], love your enemies [John 13:34], bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,“ 2 Corinthians 3:14 But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. 15 But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. 16 Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

Actually they didn't keep these things of the law. Jesus told them that these things would pass after they were fulfilled by him. They were still going up to pray at the hour of prayer but that wasn't keeping the law. It was a custom probably had they had probably to do so. If you read they eating a meal that wasn't according to Jewish laws, when some of the Pharisees came one of them quit and went to the clean food table and started eating there to keep down trouble. One of the disciples reprimanded him for it. They were going to the temple to preach the gospel. That's where the disagreement came in about them trying to yoke of law on the neck of the disciples. Some of the Jews didn't like the gentiles being added to the new covenant.

A False Dichotomy #1 For the Torah was given through Moses but grace and truth came through Yeshua the Messiah. Notice with me the KJV and NKJV has inserted the word “but”, indicated by using italics indicating this word “but”, WAS NEVER in the original text! The Hebrew word תֹּורַת ("Torah" H8451) literally "teaching, doctrine." is rendered in both the Septuagint and the Brit Hadashah by the Greek word "лодки," (nomos G3551) which means "law." Greek has had a more direct and pervasive influence on English and other modern languages than Hebrew has, and this is why in most languages one speaks of the "Law" of Moses rather than the 'Teaching" of Moses. It is also part of the reason why the Torah has mistakenly come to be thought of by Christians as legalistic in character. Grace and truth are personal attributes of G-d which Yeshua not only revealed in a unique way during his brief earthly lifetime, but, in his eternal capacity as the Word of G-d, has been continually bestowing on humanity since the dawn of creation. Grace, truth and the Torah are all from G-d, supreme expressions of who He is. Rev 19:11 uses Faithful and True which are words applied to the Messiah also at 3:14. The two words mean virtually the same thing, since the Hebrew idea of truth was not correspondence to reality (as in Greek thought), but reliability. The "G-d of truth" (Elohim emet, Jeremiah 10:10) is not primarily the G-d who reveals eternal truths, but the G-d who can be trusted to keep His covenant. When Yochanan in his Gospel wrote that "grace and truth came through Yeshua the Messiah" (John 1:17), he meant that in the life, death and resurrection of the Messiah, G-d's faithfulness was revealed in fulfillment of his covenant. Likewise, the return of Yeshua will be the faithful reappearance of him who has already appeared among men; this time he comes to bring G-d's covenant promises to their final and full consummation. Another passage comparing Moshe and the Torah with Yeshua and the New Covenant is 2 Cor 3:6-16. It is sometimes thought that the present verse demeans Moshe, but this is not the case. On the contrary, that a mere man for whom no claim to divinity has ever been made should even be compared with the Word of G-d incarnate shows how highly Yochanan regards Moses. Nor does he demean the Torah, God's eternal "teaching" about himself as given to Israel, by comparing it with grace and truth. Elsewhere Yeshua himself says that he did not come to abrogate the Torah but to fill it out (Mt 5:17-20) and proceeded to follow this program by interpreting the Torah in ways that make its meaning and commands even clearer (Mt 5:21-48). The Greek word for "to complete" is "plerosai (G4137) " literally, "to fill"; the usual rendering here, however, is "to fulfill." Replacement theology, which wrongly teaches that the Church has replaced Israel and “christians” have replaced the Jewish people as God's people (v. 5), AND ALL THOSE WHO ERRANTLY BELIEVE TORAH IS NO LONGER FOR TODAY, with its antisemetic implications and mistranslations understand this verse wrongly in two ways. First, Yeshua’s "fulfilling" the Torah is thought to mean that it is unnecessary for people to fulfill it now. But there is no logic to the proposition that Yeshua's obeying the Torah does away with our need to obey it. In fact. Sha'ul, whose object in his letter to the Romans is to foster "the obedience that comes from trusting" in Yeshua. teaches that such trusting does not abolish Torah but confirms it (Ro 1:5, 3:31). Second, with identical lack of logic, Yeshua's "fulfilling" the Prophets is thought to imply that no prophecies from the Tanakh remain for the Jews. But the Hebrew Bible's promises to the Jews are not abolished in the name of being "fulfilled in Yeshua." Rather, fulfillment in Yeshua is an added assurance that everything God has promised the Jews will yet come to pass (2 Cor 1:20). It is true that Yeshua kept the Torah perfectly and fulfilled predictions of the Prophets, but that is not the point here. Yeshua did not come to abolish but "to make full" (plerosai) the meaning of what the Torah and the ethical demands of the Prophets require. Therefore, He came to complete our understanding of the Torah and the Prophets, so that we can try more effectively to be and do what they say to be and do. Verses 18-20 indicate three ways in which the Torah and the Prophets remain necessary, applicable and in force. The remainder of Chapter 5 gives six specific cases in which Yeshua explains the fuller spiritual meaning of points in the Jewish Law. In fact, this verse slates the theme and agenda of the entire Sermon on the Mount, in which Yeshua completes, makes fuller, the understanding of his disciples concerning the Torah and the Prophets, so that they can more fully express what being Gods people is all about. The Anglican Christian writer Brigid Younghughes writes: "'...I came not to destroy, but to fulfil.' And surely 'to fulfil' means to complete, in the sense of bringing to perfection, not, as Christians have all too often interpreted it, to render obsolete; to fulfil in such a way as to perfect a foundation on which to build further." (Christianity's Jewish Heritage, West Sussex: Angel Press, 1988, p. 8) NEVER THROW OUT THE BABY WITH THE BATHWATER!

[@justindarnellfpv]

I think if you look at the purpose of the law then it all makes more sense. Israel was to be the light of the world that would live a certain way, be blessed and thereby bring the world to YHWH. From the garden it has always been the kingdom and multiplying the image. The new covenant the goal didn’t change, just the vehicle. Just look at the book of Jonah… 100k + gentiles get redeemed. 4 gentiles in the Messiahs genealogy, mixed multitude out of Egypt. Gentiles we’re always the target, Israel we’re the witnesses

[@charitybrook6279]

Your entire distinction between Jew and Gentile falls apart when you remember that the Samaritan are always classed as gentiles and yet they were actually from the divorced northern tribes. So yeah, there is no Jew and gentile because as God said, through Abrahams seed the ENTIRE world would be blessed. This happened both in Christ and also through the fact that there have been many diasporas throughout Israels history. This supports scripture that says "there is neither Jew nor gentile" And yet you seem to want to keep making the distinction, holding both views at once, making this all sound very double-minded... Jesus came *only* for the lost sheep of the house of Israel. The Samaritan woman proved she was a lost sheep by her faith.

[@TheBiblicalRoots]

Thanks, Charity! The distinction I am trying to maintain (though I may not always be successful) is the distinction described in Scripture. In terms of salvation in Christ you're right, there is no difference between Jew and Gentile. “For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body-Jews or Greeks, slaves or free-and all were made to drink of one Spirit” (1 Cor 12:13, see also Rom 10:12; Gal 3:28-29; Col 3:11). Yet the NT teaches that there *is* still a distinction: the Gospel is first to the Jew and also to the Gentile (Rom 1:16). And judgment will come first to the Jew and also to the Gentile (2:9). And those who do good will receive glory, honor and peace, first the Jew, and also the Gentile (2:10). These passages teach a distinction between Jews and Gentiles in the carrying out of the Gospel and judgement. And there is a clear distinction shown in Rom 11 where we're told that salvation has come to the Gentiles in order to make the Jews jealous (v. 11). "Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in" (11:25). And we see this distinction described in the end times, as well, in Revelation 7:4-9. So, yes, Jesus' earthly ministry was just for the lost sheep of Israel (Matt 10:6, 15:24). And then after His resurrection, He commanded us to make disciples of "all nations" (Matt 28:19-20). Blessings, Rob

[@charitybrook6279]

@@TheBiblicalRoots how do you understand Romans 11? I take it to be saying we are grafted into Israel. The prophesies regarding Israel apply to us because we are the wild branches grafted in to the olive tree. Here is a portion that I'm specifically referring to but the whole chapter and proceeding chapters should also be read... ----- "If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.” Granted. But they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but tremble. *For if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.* "Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off. And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!" *I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited:Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in,* and *in this way ALL Israel will be saved.* As it is written:" “The deliverer will come from Zion; he will turn godlessness away from Jacob. And this is my covenant with them when I take away their sins.” ----- To me, this clearly connects the idea that Israel could not be complete until the gentiles were grafted in. Jesus is the Root of Jesse that sprang up. And we are all His branches. His church. The menorah is a beautiful picture of this. Doesn't this mean that the prophesies of the end times regarding Israel apply to us as spiritual Israel as well? Paul and James both seem to explore these concepts...

@@TheBiblicalRoots also, thank you for always being kind in your responses. Though it's clear we are on different sides of this issue, we are brother and sister in Christ and must always be gracious with one another because one thing we can both agree on is this: We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus and NOT of works that any man should boast. I think we just disagree on definitions of terms. Such as love Belief vs unbelief And sin. When I first believed in Jesus I was still defining most of these terms based on a mixture between what the Bible says, and what the world says is good and evil. I didn't understand the conflict until I really studied God's Law, which Jesus further expounds upon. I didn't understand *why* homosexuality was wrong, I just knew that "God said so". And so my moral stance on this issue was sort of shaky. I had an intellectual agreement with God, but in my heart I didn't really get it. The more i study the Word, the more I feel His Laws being written on my heart. And the less my flesh comes into conflict with my spirit which is directed by the Holy Spirit within me. I believe Jesus taught us the proper application of the Law. And it's in spirit as well as deed, not just one or the other.

Once again, Rob, you are distorting the Scriptures. You are either ignorant of true scriptural truth or you are deliberately distorting the Scriptures. I think the latter. Even if you read it, you will still deny it because it appears that you will not allow the Spirit of God to correct you through the Scriptures. Jeremiah 31:31-34 is clear about the New Covenant. The New Covenant is about God writing his law in their hearts and putting it in their inward parts, and about him being their God and them being my people. This new covenant he made with the two houses was not like the one he made with their fathers, which was given on tablets of stone. That is what made it new. The new covenant that Yeshua gave in remembrance of his death has nothing to do with Jeremiah 31. Why don't you read Hebrews 9:16 through 22, then go to Exodus 24:3-8, then you will understand what made Yeshua's covenant new. According to what Hebrews 9:22 says, without the shedding of blood, there is no remission. Now read Matthew 26:27-29, and you should understand what the new covenant Yeshua made is all about. It is safe to say that Matthew is stating unequivocally that Yeshua made a once-and-for-all atonement for sin, replacing the Old Testament sin atonement.

The timeline of Matthew, after the 'Sabbaths' and the angel's message to the women, and the bribery, 11 disciples, in Galilee, they see Messiah, he commands them to go forth to all the nations, implying even those where no Israelite or Jew resides. Was Simon-Peter not with them? The timeline of Acts 7:55-59, 8:20-23, 9:32-43, Simon-Peter moves from Samaria to Jaffa following the stoning of Stephen in the culmination of Messiah's 70 week ministry, and the persecutions headed by Saul/Paul. In Acts 10:9-11:21, Simon-Peter receives a vision where he is instructed to teach all the nations, represented by various beasts, akin to something from Daniel, and fulfilling the words of other prophets (contrary to what Jews say to this day, denying they were ever instructed to do such). My point is that these timelines are divergent because Matthew's occurs imminently (some days travel) after Messiah's resurrection. In Acts, Stephen is stoned around 7 weeks/shavuot after Messiah's resurrection, this being the culmination of the ministry. Before anyone shouts, "Heresy!" , may I boldly state, the oracles of Yeshua are a true, sure Gospel, and it is clear that the Gospel must be restored in truth, then comes the end (Matt.24:14), this notwithstanding, the question is the timing of the command, for he was sent only to the house of Jacob (Matt.15:24), and even Samaria was initially excluded, noting that Matthew's collection is not fully sequenced (Matt.10:5-6).

Your video claims to disprove Hebrew Roots by making up a timeline to defend your own point of view that keeping Torah is no longer required. The questions you then pose are only questions if you take your own point of view, not if you simply obey the commandments out of love. Your statement is that that because we are now grafted into Israel, we no longer need to identify ourselves as Israel. That makes no sense at all. The bible actually makes clear that Israel would have to take in anyone as their own, because they were once themselves strangers.(Leviticus 19:34) The whole point of keeping Torah is to proclaim He is our God. Today you have proclaimed the Lord to be your God, and that you will walk in His ways and keep His statutes, His commandments, and His judgments, and that you will obey His voice. Also today the Lord has proclaimed you to be His special people, just as He promised you, that you should keep all His commandments (Deuteronomy 26:17-18) You say that we have a new way in the Spirit. Yes, but to make us walk in His statutes (Ezekiel 11:19-20). So why would we want to do those things? Because God has written His law upon our heart. We have love for them and we want to do them. (Ezekiel 36:27) This should not be a surprise. And yes, the holiness laws. They are for Israel and if we want to be grafted into Israel also for us. Peter reminded us to do so! (1 Peter 1:16) Even Isaiah wrote that the law of Moses (equal to the law of God) was written because we are stubborn and not want to listen to it (Isaiah 30:8-9) The funny thing is that you use Acts 15 as an argument that the law of Moses was no longer required, when all the restrictions that were given came from Leviticus 17-19. You say that Jesus did it all. Well, Ezekiel said this: When I say to the righteous that he shall surely live, but he trusts in his own righteousness and commits iniquity, none of his righteous works shall be remembered; but because of the iniquity that he has committed, he shall die. What you basically teach is this: (Ezekiel 11:19-20 RL Solberg) Then I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them, and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh, that they have the option to walk in My statutes and keep My judgments, but are not required to do them; and they shall be My people no matter what they do, and I will be their God.

Why did the Apostles and the disciples continue to keep the Torah even after the resurrection? When God commanded them, they understood the significance of obeying without questioning it. Are christians supposed to keep the weekly Sabbath? Yeshua said the Sabbath was made for man (not Jews, but man). Why did God make a Sabbath covenant with Israel and not with the Gentiles? Here is your answer: God chose a people to serve him. He made all covenants with his chosen, not with the Gentiles, who were lawless, which is why in Leviticus 18 he commanded the Jews to not be like them. Rob, can you show me one covenant that God made with the Gentiles? Were Gentiles grafted into the kosher food law or feast? It is clear from the Scriptures that when a Gentile is grafted into Yeshua, he becomes part of the commonwealth of Israel. I decided to do a little research on what a commonwealth is so that you can understand because you refuse to understand it from a biblical perspective. Four states in the nation (Kentucky, Massachusetts, Virginia, and Pennsylvania) use the designation "commonwealth" to define themselves. The distinction doesn’t mean they’re any different or enjoy any advantages over the other 46 states. It simply means they’ve adopted the British term for providing for the "common good" or the "common wealth" of their citizens. You are just becoming repetitious in all your videos and that is because you have nothing else to talk about. Most of what you stated I brought Scriptures so that your distorted view be refuted. Just like Romans 1:28 says, even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. In other words, they are predestined to damnation (rejected by God and without hope of salvation) because they want nothing to do with God but continue their abomination. In like manner, you appear to delight in going against God's laws and wanting nothing to do with them, which is why you continue to attack God's laws and you continue to teach Gentile believers that they do not have to keep God's laws. Maybe God is allowing you to continue to get deeper into what you delight in, which is speaking against his laws, causing you to slowly forget the God of Israel, to the point that you will reject him. You speak double-mindedly, with a split tongue. The phrase "speaks with a forked tongue" appears to fit you being that you speak in a duplicitous manner. It is sad to say, but many Gentile believers have been engraved with a lie that God's laws are done away with, and the reason why they cannot learn scriptural truth is because they fall into the arms and distorting teachings of men, you appear to be one of them!

Grace, truth and The Torah ARE ALL FROM HaShem, AND ARE INDIVIDUAL supreme expressions of who He is! In this verse Yochanan means that in the life, death and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua, HaShem's faithfulness was revealed in fulfillment of His covenant. Likewise, Yeshua's return will be the faithful reappearance of Him who already appeared among men (John 1:14); this time He comes to bring HaShem's covenant promises to their final and full consummation! Furthermore, faithful and true (Rev 19:11) also applied to Yeshua in Rev 3:14 have virtually the same meaning! WHY? The Hebrew idea of truth אֱמֶת emeth IS related to reliability. This is demonstrated in Jeremiah 10:10 אֱלֹהִים֙ אֱמֶ֔ת (G-d of truth, Elohim emet), the G-d who can be trusted and the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments to keep His covenant (Deut 7:9). The G-d who remember His covenant forever, the word which He commanded, for a thousand generations (Psalm 105:8) WHY? לֹ֣א אִ֥ישׁ אֵל֙ וִֽיכַזֵּ֔ב וּבֶן־אָדָ֖ם וְיִתְנֶחָ֑ם הַה֤וּא אָמַר֙ וְלֹ֣א יַעֲשֶׂ֔ה וְדִבֶּ֖ר וְלֹ֥א יְקִימֶֽנָּה Lo ish El v’yi-cha-zeiv oo-vein odom v’yees’ne-chom ha-hua omar v’lo ya-a-se v’dober v’lo a-she-vana “God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent; Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good? (Numbers 24:19 NASB) But there’s more! God’s Grace and the Law of Moses “The new is in the old concealed; the old is in the new revealed,” said Augustine. This quotation’s main achievement is that it boldly opposes the general tendency among many Christian believers to contrapose two parts of the Holy Bible. In the majority of translations statements such as “For the Law came through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” (John 1:17), seem to imply precisely that contraposition (contradiction). Even when the translation is more literal (“For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ”), such a contrast is automatically presumed by readers. The word translated as Law (νόμος) should be translated as Torah/Pentateuch, because this was the primary meaning of the word when it was used by Jews in the first century. The “grace” and “truth” are far less problematic, but still do not fully bring out the force of the spoken Hebrew behind the written Greek. Therefore, we should read John 1:17 as follows: “The Torah came through Moses and unfailing love (חסד) and truthfulness (אמת) came through Jesus Christ.” The grace and truth of God can be clearly seen in the Torah of Moses, while in the Jewish Christ they are displayed to their utmost degree. The opposite of law (Torah) was never grace, but lawlessness (without Torah). NOW read Mt 7:23 as the Greek is ammonia (without law) The opposite of grace was never law, but disgrace. This is exactly what it is for those who say they love Yeshua and throw out Torah WHERE ALL the command(ment)s are based! (John 14:15, 21)

You know your bible and you bring up many valid points. However, when you referenced Jeremiah 31:21-33, and the NEW covenant that God would make with these two groups: the house of Israel and the house of Judah, you made the assumption that these two groups are Jews. Not so! There was a kingdom split in 1 Kings 12, with the Northern kingdom led by Jeroboam, the 10 tribes of the north. They are known as the "house of Israel" (the NON JEWISH part of the nation of Israel, and the Southern kingdom, led by Rehoboam, the 2 tribes of the south, primarily Judah, and they were known as the house of Judah (the Jews). This NEW COVENANT was for both of those kingdoms, for all 12 tribes, for the Jews and the non Jews. Yeshua's covenant family is the house of Jacob (all 12 tribes). For more understanding on this listen to an excellent teaching, "Who is the House of Jacob?" soundcloud.com/user-81905958/sets/who-is-the-house-of-jacob

Hey, Torah House team! Thanks for watching. Respectfully, you (and apparently Mr. Chumney) are using neither the biblical definition of the word _Jew,_ nor the English definition. The dictionary defines a Jew as “a member of the people and cultural community whose traditional religion is Judaism and who come from the ancient Hebrew people of Israel.” And in Scripture, the English word _Jew_ (In Hebrew: יְהוּדִי _y’hudi,_ In Greek: Ἰουδαῖος _loudaious_ ) has the same meaning. This is true in both the OT and the NT. For example, Nehemiah 2:16: “…and I had not yet told the Jews, the priests, the nobles, the officials, and the rest who were to do the work.” (Notice he mentions priests, who were from the tribe of Levi, which was not part of the southern kingdom of Judah.) And John 2:13: “The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.” Was the Passover only celebrated by the two tribes of Judah? Of course not. That feast was given long before Israel split in two. So the word _Jew_ in the Bible refers to all 12 tribes. There is no “non-Jewish” part of Israel. That is a false teaching. In Scripture, a non-Jew is called a Gentile or _goy._ And that term refers to people who are _not_ from the 12 tribes of Israel; people from the other nations. Shalom, Rob
