Psalm 82

This is the most controversial psalm of all. It is the one Yeshua quotes when He says to his accusers, "You are gods." What did Yeshua mean by this? Join us for a fascinating excursion into this short (and misunderstood) psalm as we try unravel its mysteries.

The Tabernacle – Pt.5: The Altar & The Laver

The furnishings of the Tabernacle are arranged in pairs: the Ark & the Cover; the Table of Showbread & the Menorah; and now the Altar & the Laver. These last two (rather simple) furnishings contain important lessons into the way we are to approach God, i.e. the path of Fire and Water. We will look at how Solomon made himself a living sacrifice and how the bronze laver reflects God's Word. But we conclude this lesson with a fascinating spiritual discovery: how Fire and Water are depicted in all three areas of the Tabernacle, and what that means for us!

Psalm 81

Psalm 81 is in many ways a mirror image (alike but opposite) of Psalm 80. This short psalm contains several secret insights that are revealed only in the Hebrew, such as a unique spelling of Joseph's name, a strange word used for "harp", and a curious addition to the first line of The 10 Commandments. Join us for a deep dive into this fascinating psalm.

The Tabernacle – Pt.4: The Curtains, Coverings & Walls

Why did the Tabernacle's ceiling made of four layers and what is the significance of these layers? How do they picture the bridge between the earthly and heavenly realms? How do they illustrate the sacrificial system? How do they teach us about us? And how do the walls illustrate the integration of spiritual and physical unity in the body of Messiah? Join us for a deep dive into the beauty and majesty of the holy Tabernacle and experience the profound lessons it holds.

Shavuot

Of all the appointed times in the Bible, Shavuot (Pentecost) is the only one that does not have an assigned date and is also the most complex. Join us for a study of this fascinating holy day and how it applies to our own lives.

Psalm 79

One of God's names is El Kanah - "The Jealous God". What does this mean? Isn't jealousy a petty, negative emotion? How can God be jealous? And what could He possibly be jealous of?! Join us for a discussion into this short but powerful psalm as we address these and other questions.

Psalm 78

This lengthy (72 verses) psalm takes center stage in this string of 11 psalms by Asaph. It provides a review of Israel's history - warts and all. But amidst its chorus of failure and pain interweaves a melody of God's grace and lovingkindness. But the climax of this psalm is its reference to how the Holy One of Israel was wounded, using a unique Hebrew word that points directly at the cross. Join us in our study of this sad, majestic, yet beautiful and victorious psalm of God's faithful devotion to His people.

The Tabernacle – Part 2: The Ark of the Covenant

Though the Ark of the Covenant is thought of as one object, the Torah actually describes it as two: the box + the cover. Why is it important to recognize this? And what connection does the Ark have with Joseph in Egypt? Join us on a fascinating journey into the Holy of Holies, and be sure to print out the notes so that you can view the beautiful illustrations.

Psalm 71

Do you ever feel that time is slipping by way too quickly? That you are growing old and no longer have much to offer? Is so, then this psalm was written for you. David was advanced in years when he composed Psalm 71, and in it he expresses how God's hand supports us from before we were born and even beyond the grave. This psalm is a great blessing to all who need encouragement in their latter years, but it also includes a beautiful secret - the secret of the sapphire - which reveals where God hides and how He can be found. Come join us for an uplifting and inspiring study.

Rosh Hashanah

"Rosh Hashanah" is not mentioned in Scripture, so where did it get its name? If the spring month of Nisan is the beginning of months, how can Rosh Hashanah be the beginning of the year? And what is the spiritual significance of this holy day, and what lessons can we learn from the shofar? Join us for a fascinating look into the mysterious holy day that is the beginning of the fall moedim.
