Hebrew Nation Online | Come Out of Her My People – Mark Call

Parsha “Mishpatim” (Exodus chapters 21 through 24) is literally “judgments,” or “ordinances,” and begins with a number of them.

But what is most fascinating about them is that so many are now considered NOT ‘politically-correct,’ and that fact alone merits taking a special look at why.

The Erev Shabbat Reading:

Mark has long remarked about the fact that this parsha, Mishpatim, is SO very NOT PC. But this year, we need to take note of an important change. People seem to have just about “had it” with men pretending to dominate ‘womens’ sports’, and kids being taught utter perversion – and worse – in the public cesspools. And just about everything else that amounts to “calling evil good,” and vice-versa.

And the level of utter corruption and criminality in an illegitimate government that was NEVER supposed to be a ‘democracy’ in the first place has inclined more people to ask just how we could have been so deceived for so long.

Perhaps the answer is in one of the key verses – also too often ignored – in this parsha as well: “Do not follow after a multitude to do evil.” Could that include even a ‘majority vote’?

NOTE: The HNR website had difficulty loading the separate MP3 file for the Sabbath day teaching alone – so I had to go with a single combined file; the Friday reading is thus on there twice, as some have noticed.

One full month in as of today, Americans still seem to be surprised by how effective the new Trump administration, and DOGE, have been at exposing a level of corruption and perfidy most still can not quite imagine. It makes “hit the ground running,” seem like an understatement.

And still, so far, no riots. So people are surprised, optimistic, excited, even joyful…but the threat remains:

The “Conspiracy Theorists,” it turns out, were right all along.

And the Beast is still ‘front and center’ in prophecy that REMAINS right on-track.

Pray, and plan ahead.

Parsha “Yitro” (Exodus chapters 18 through 21) is named for the man who is Moses’ father-in-law, because he makes an appearance in the very first part of the story.

But the portion is most noted because it includes the first giving of the ‘Ten Debarim’ (actually ‘words,’ or even Ten Sayings) – most usually rendered in English as the Ten Commandments.

The Erev Shabbat Reading:

The description surrounding the fact that the mixed multitude of Israel, according to the literal Hebrew, actually “SAW” the thunderings, and the other aspects of the interaction were so overwhelming that they then told Moses, ‘YOU speak to us,’ from here on out, because they were afraid that if they heard directly from YHVH again, it would kill them, is a graphic indication that THIS interaction with the Creator of the Universe was different than anything that had ever happened before.

And it’s something that Mark Call has “waxed a bit nerdy” about before, suggesting that it was some type of “high bandwidth” download that probably seemed overwhelming to them.

And, superficially at least, but maybe even to a deeper extent given the level of incredible Evil now being exposed, we may be seeing a similar level of “information overload” today.

But the similarities don’t stop there.

We’re still seeing more detail about what it means to “hit the ground running.” And so far, no riots, but we have seen at least part of “the Empire Strikes Back.” And there’s more to come.

So Mark Call suggests it’s time for some thought experiments.

Some things that we can expect to see more of, we’ve already seen. Others, like ‘lawfare,’ seem to have been elevated to a new level. And at least one is arguably inevitable.

Pray, and plan ahead.

Note: Audio file issue has been corrected.

Parsha “B’shalach” (Exodus 13:17 – 17:16) begins with what might be the most famous miracle in the Bible, the “parting of the Red Sea” [more likely the ‘Sea of Reeds’] and the related destruction of Pharaoh, and all his army and chariots.

The very first verse of the parsha, as Mark Call notes in the reading, should perhaps “leap off the page” today as a warning: YHVH took the ‘mixed multitude’ via the Long Way Home to the Promised Land, rather than the shorter coastal route, “lest the people regret,” when they see war, and decide to return right back into bondage.

Could that ring true today?

The Erev Shabbat Reading:

The question has been asked. But there is something fundamental about human nature that is outlined here. Rather than being grateful for having been freed “by a Mighty Hand,” from bondage, and happy to be en route to a Promised Land, why instead do people whine, and want to go back into slavery?

In that context it is interesting that there is so much emphasis in this story on “testing” by YHVH. They see thirst in the wilderness. And have cause for concern when He gives them ‘bread from heaven’ – before it gets a name. The Sabbath is introduced. (Or – is it RE-introduced?) But Yah has good reason to ask, “How long will you refuse to keep My commandments and My Instruction?”

The combined two-part teaching will be up later; HNR has server problems that prevented it from uploading.

By any measure, what happened after President Trump’s inauguration amounted to far more than just “hitting the ground running.”

In fact, by almost any measure, the amount of progress to roll back the Deep State and expose the – to most people – UNBELIEVABLE level of perfidy and corruption is nothing short of shocking.

Author Jeffrey A. Tucker called it the new “Ten Days that Shook the World.”

Which is impressive, certainly, and even very encouraging.

But Mark Call thinks we must not lose sight of another important question:

Parsha “Bo” (Exodus 10:1 – 13:16) describes the last three of the ‘Ten Plagues of Egypt.” And, in the process, lays out the understanding of the most important, the ‘death of the firstborn,’ and the first of His Appointed Times, Pesach; aka “the Passover.”

In the Erev Shabbat reading, Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship, outlines the reason why these might better be thought of as the final two of the third set of three plagues, followed by the one which in fact is in a category by itself:

The Sabbath Day midrash might be considered part two in a sequence, and begins with an examination of thise patters – multiple patterns in fact – that make up those “three sets of three” setup plagues, and, in particular, what they might show us about a future set of events that he again suggests will unfold at some time in the future.

Certainly they were not only all judgments against various fake Egyptian ‘gods,’ but other patterns within the plagues, such as who and what they affected, and how, may give us a great picture of what the judgments against ‘modern gods’ might well look like. And what we should be prayerfully prepared for.

also, Mark contends, a set of ‘open brackets,’ or one half of a set of bookends, which we will eventually see closed by the prophesied second, or “Greater Exodus.”

And there are certainly “candidates” for those in play today. So, sometimes a bit of speculation is useful.

The combined two-part teaching is here:

There was an “incident” today in Swamp Central that certainly does not look like an “accident.” But once again, we are being expected to believe that it is the unfortunate result of just incredible incompetence.

And before the bodies of the passengers on a commercial jetliner that collided with an Army Black Hawk helicopter were even dry, the FBI told gullible Americans that, WHATEVER it might have been, somehow they know it can’t be “terrorism.”

What we do know, at minimum, is that it fails the ‘smell test.’ Far worse, it looks deliberate, and the evidence is something you’re not supposed to even ask about, much less understand.

And it makes a very important point:

The second Torah portion reading from the Book of Exodus this week is in some respects THE beginning of the Exodus itself, in that it describes the first set(s) of the ‘Ten Plagues of Egypt.” ‘Vaera’ (Exodus 6:4 through chapter 9), beings, however, with an explanation of His Name, YHVH. “And I appeared,” (‘vaera’) He says, to Abraham, and to Yitzak, and to Yakov, “as El Shaddai, but by My Name YHVH I did not,” at not in the way that He is about to, “make Myself known to them.

And that is the essence of what He is about to do!

The Erev Shabbat reading, as usual, covers the story itself, but also starts to lay out the incredible significance of just what that means:

The Sabbath Day midrash takes a deeper look at a number of key elements that are laid out in this parsha, from the emphasis on His Name YHVH, and that He would then SHOW what that means, so that all of us would know, to the patterns and projections associated with the plagues themselves.

They were not only all judgments against various fake Egyptian ‘gods,’ but also, Mark contends, a set of ‘open brackets,’ or one half of a set of bookends, which we will eventually see closed by the prophesied second, or “Greater Exodus.”

And there are certainly “candidates” for those in play today.

The combined two-part teaching is here:

Why would newly-inaugurated President Trump take time out from arguably the busiest week in US presidential history to hold a big PR event announcing “Project Stargate” (what a suggestive name, too!) with the intent to spend a half-TRILLION dollars to develop an AGI, or “Artificial General Intelligence?”

Which people like the late physicist Steven Hawking described as the greatest existential threat ever faced by the human race. And maybe the last.

Why now? Why at all?

And what does it mean to those of us who arguably can’t stop it, but certainly have been warned, repeatedly, by Scripture.
