Numbers – An Introduction

Posted in Numbers, tagged , , on August 9, 2023|

I am going to be posting bible studies through the book of Numbers in the coming weeks, and to accompany those studies, I will be posting some commentary and introductory material related to the book of Numbers.

By way of introduction, Numbers is the fourth book of the five books of Moses often called the Torah or the Pentateuch. As part of the Torah, Numbers is a significant book to study and understand for any believer in the God of Abraham, including those who acknowledge Yeshua (Jesus) as Messiah. As scripture declares, Yeshua was a Jew and would have memorized the Torah from an early age and lived His life according to its truths.

In the observant Jewish and Messianic Jewish communities around the world, the Torah (books of Moses) is divided into weekly portions known as Parashah. Observant Jews around the world are reading and studying the same portion of scripture during the same week. The book of Numbers is divided into ten (10) Parashat (plural of Parashah) as follows:

Bemidbar (In the wilderness) Numbers 1:1-4:20

Naso (Take/carry) Numbers 4:21-7:89

Beha’alotekha (When you set up) Numbers 8:1-12:16

Shelach-Lekha (Send for yourself) Numbers 13:1-15:41

Korach (Korah) Numbers 16:1-18:32

Chukat (Decree of) Numbers 19:1-22:1

Balak (Balak) Numbers 22:2-25:9

Pinchas (Phinehas) Numbers 25:10-30:1

Mattot (Tribes) Numbers 30:2-32:42

Masei (Journeys of) Numbers 33:1-36:13

Training

Posted in Bible, tagged , , , on February 28, 2023|

We must be trained to receive the Word of God. It’s a lifetime endeavor and not one for the faint-hearted. The ground of our thinking must be tilled, the fallow ground turned over and exposed to the elements, and weeds must be removed. We must learn to understand the Word, trust the Word, and then use the Word until it becomes our daily sustenance–that from which we take our nourishment to live, to thrive–what we need to survive. We must pursue the Word of God until we pant for it as the deer pants for the water brook.

Then and only then can we increase in comprehension and retention. Only then can we live as though it were (because it is) the Words of the One True and Living God who desires relationship with us. The study of God’s Word requires a submitted heart and mind to flourish under its instruction as God intended.

Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15

Midrash and Yeshua (Jesus)

Posted in Jewish connections, Jewish connections, tagged , on February 27, 2023|

     Midrash, according to Dictionary.com is “an early Jewish interpretation of or commentary on a Biblical text, clarifying or expounding a point of law or developing or illustrating a moral principle.”  It can be understood as an intensification of Torah and the prophets.

     If we examine the teachings of Yeshua (Jesus), we can see that Yeshua did not cancel or nullify the law by His teaching, rather He intensified Torah by His midrashic interpretation. For an example, we can look to  Matthew 5:21-22 where Yeshua says, “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.” We see Yeshua is taking the Torah (Exodus 20:13) and making application with intensification. Other examples can be found in Matthew 5:27, 33, 38 and 43.
