The English noun gospel comes from the Anglo-Saxon term godspell, meaning "glad tidings." It is translated from the Greek evangelion, which means "good message." Originally, the word was related to news of military triumph. –https://www.gotquestions.org/gospel-good-news.html

While mainstream Christianity has a relatively narrow definition or view of the Good News, e.g., limited to the New Testament and only relating to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, a broader, more scriptural perspective exists that is less taught, if taught at all.

Didn't the prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and others preach good news? What was their good news about?

If the Good News is only about the death, burial, and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua, why did He teach and preach about it? What did He say is the Good News?

Is the Good News about the Messiah, or is it of the Messiah?

As is his usual practice, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a more profound understanding to this topic by allowing scripture to define itself just as he has done in his other teachings.

• Opener
• Review
• Ephesians 5:1 – Become imitators of Elohim as beloved children
• Ephesians 5:2 – Walk in love
• 1 Corinthians 13 – The Love Chapter
• Ephesians 5:3 – Greed of gain?
• Ephesians 5:4 – Things that cause harm to others
• Ephesians 5:5 – You’re not getting in
• Ephesians 5:6 – Empty words?
• Weightier things?
• Ephesians 5:7 – Do not be partakers with them
• Ephesians 5:8 – Prove what is well-pleasing
• Ephesians 5:11 – Don’t fellowship with them, but reprove them?
