The book of Galatians is a misunderstood book by many, and we are going to introduce some of the reasons for this, but it will not be in detail. For that we refer you to our verse-by-verse study of the…
This term is used by Paul to illustrate several concepts. These concepts are not understood by most believers as they read the Renewed Covenant, and it leads to a great deal of misunderstanding. The word “law” is “Torah” in Hebrew…

Amos 6.1-14 seems to be addressed to Israel and Judah and Benjamin under the names “Samaria” and “Zion” and to the rulers of both. They will be threatened for their disregard of the Torah and God’s judgment. v 1…Woe to…
Hos 8.1-14 tells us that an enemy is coming swiftly to punish Israel for their sins against Yehovah and his Torah. These words will also apply to any belief system that replaces the Torah and teaches that one is “free…
Lam 4.1-22 is again written in acrostic form with each verse beginning with the next successive letter in the Hebrew alphabet. Jeremiah writes about the destruction of the Temple, Jerusalem, and the people because of their sins. But there is…

Now we are going to talk about the Azazel from Yom Kippur. It is the goat that is taken to the wilderness, and very misunderstood in Christianity. It is mistranslated in Lev 16 as “scapegoat” but we are going to…
There is an eschatological concept found in the Num 24.17 that says, “I see him, but not now.” Another way of saying that is, “Here now, but not yet.” To fully understand what we are going to get into in…
