Messianic Shabbat Prayers Inspired by the Didache
For the past couple of months, I’ve been working on a multi-language project, studying the Didache—a 1st-century document believed to contain the Apostles’ instructions to the emerging grafted-in ecclesia.

The Name — HaShem Day 2
The Role of the Masoretic Text and Vocalization If you’ve studied Proto-Sinaitic script, you may have noticed that vowels did not exist—nor did the niqqud, the system of vocalization introduced by the Masoretes. This system, known as the Masoretic Vocalization System, was developed to restore correct pronunciation after Hebrew had been heavily influenced by the languages of nations that dominated Israel during exile.…

My Devotion is to the Name (Ha-Shem)
Today we have confused what our great commission is. We think, as an assembly, that we are to teach and disciple the people that agree with us, that we can only bless those that think like us, those who interpret the Bible similar to us. But if this is true, Yeshua would have never die…

Dead to Sin
We must exercise caution and avoid jumping to that conclusion, as we are not exempt from the Law of Yahweh. However, Paul makes a startling statement, asserting that we have become victims—believing that our oppressor is the Law of Yahweh.

Justification & Faith
We are justified by faith. What does that mean? Does that mean I’m justified even if I don’t want to change? Paul will takes us to a wild ride, so buckle-up, is going to get bumpy. #romans #messianics #christianity #judaism #yeshua #promises #tanakh #britchadasha #thelaw #theprophets #thewritings

Eyes to See
A rivalry older than empires—Cain vs. Abel, Isaac vs. Ishmael, Jacob vs. Esau, Joseph vs. his brothers… Jew vs. Gentile. This long arc of tension finds fresh focus in Romans: Paul continues his rebuke—don’t wield Torah as judgment if you’re untransformed by it. Then he pivots, speaking directly to Gentile believers in Rome, inviting them…
