Messianic Torah Observant Israel

With only a couple of weeks before a holiday that the world celebrates and the current times we live in with COVID-19 virus Rabbi Steve Berkson brings some clarity to the thinking of some that may be struggling or new to Torah Observance concerning the Holidays, Holy Days and what to do with traditions.

Rabbi Berkson clarifies categorically what constitutes a Holy Day – that which Yahweh has instituted by His word, gives tools to discern right from wrong concerning traditions, and expounds on inappropriate, pagan-based “holidays”.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.

No one understood the connection of Love and Torah better than King David. He was referred to by Yahweh as the man after Yahweh’s own heart. As we continue going through Psalm 119 we see him talking about his love for Torah, how much he values and cherishes the commandments of Yahweh.

What did King David mean when he wrote, “Your witnesses are wonders…”?

If you are in covenant with Yah, how could wickedness have rule over you?

Jeremiah 31:31 – The Covenant – new or renewed?

How are you like a teenager to Yahweh?

Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.

As we continue to look at King David, the man after Yahweh’s own heart, and his writings starting in Psalm 119:126, Rabbi Steve Berkson teaches us verse by verse to understand the emotions and thoughts King David experienced to cause him to write them down. As we understand, we can apply these emotions and thoughts to our lives. After all, it’s through our experiences that Yahweh ‘makes us to understand.’

Every organization, corporation, state, country, etc. has a vertical structure with someone or something at the top and those under who are subject to the level above and responsible for those who are under. The Kingdom of Messiah has the same kind of vertical structure. This is necessary for the smooth and functional operation of the forward movement of the Kingdom. This vertical Kingdom structure is in place right now and everyone within the structure should know and understand their function.

Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.

This episode from the beginning of Sukkot starts with Rabbi Steve Berkson taking us to the passage in the Gospel of John, chapter 7, where we see Yeshua Messiah standing up at the day called Shemini Atzerat which finishes the feast, declaring Himself to be the Waters of Life. Rabbi Berkson points out that Messiah said “Anyone who thirsts…” – but does everyone get to drink?

From there Rabbi Berkson takes us to John 4:5-15, the story of the woman at the well, where Messiah Yeshua offered Living Water to her and also declared to her, one of only two people, that He was the Messiah.

Rabbi Berkson points out the time of day this happened from which he brings a “deeper understanding” as to what the time of day had to do with the story which was the sixth hour of the day. What could be the “hour of man”?

From there we go back to Psalm 119, but before he gets into that Rabbi Berkson gives instruction and encouragement in regards to studying the Word. It matters not how you do it – just do it, the way you do it.

Then going into Psalm 119 starting in verse 114, Rabbi Berkson reminds us the purpose of taking this psalm verse-by-verse is that you would place yourself in the shoes of King David. You should feel what he felt through the words he wrote. Then you should apply the same love for Torah and place the same value and importance to your walk as he did.

Who are the “evil-doers”? How does the Scripture define evil? Rabbi Berkson shows us plainly. Who or what are the “witnesses”? Rabbi Berkson expounds how these impact our lives.

Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.

As we explore Psalm 119 we begin this episode in verse 99 and ask the question, why would you love the Torah? Rabbi Steve Berkson lists the reasons for giving your love and life to the Torah of Yahweh.

Why would King David say that he’s smarter than his teachers? What teachers?

Did King David have a problem with arrogance? Do you?

What does it mean to “restrain my feet”? Doesn’t Satan cause me to do wrong? How do you picture Satan, the devil? Would you recognize that creature if it were before you?

How does our Creator define evil? How do humans define evil? Do the definitions match?

In what way will living in the Millennium be harder for some? What will be taken away from humans once haSatan is bound for a thousand years?

Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.
