Part 1: A Son is Given The events that transpire in Luke 1 constitute a turning point in the story of God’s people Israel. They are replete with references to the promises and hopes of the past and pregnant with the future in which these promises and hopes will at last be fulfilled. Because of the need that each gospel has to, at the outset, establish its direct relationship to the Hebrew Bible, Luke 1 has a remarkably rich and pervasive connection to the Hebrew prophets, including Moses and the patriarchs. We will see that the Son that is promised is, by necessity, a son of Jewish flesh, and not only a son of the Spirit.

A Chorus of Hope

The portion is Exodus 35:1 through the end of Exodus. Why does G-d take such care to reveal to Moses on the mountain of G-d all of the tiniest details for creating G-d’s sanctuary, the tabernacle? The tedious details may seem irrelevant to our lives today, but speak intimately to us about His eternal desire to dwell in our midst.

3/21/20 Shabbat message

There can be no more relevant verse for the times we are living in than Hebrews 12:2, which instructs us to look to Yeshua as we “run the race with endurance.” The Israelites looked at the serpent on a pole and were healed. We look to Him who knew no sin while He bore ours, and likewise are healed and restored. I pray this message encourage you greatly.

This week’s message is unusual. We start by talking about racism and prejudice, and then cover the church fathers who failed to honor the fathers sometimes called the patriarchs. It’s not as varied as it sounds, as things are tied together with the theme of fathers.
