Nashville Sabbath Fellowship

Why does the Torah require salt in every offering? In this week’s teaching on Parashat Vayikra, we explore the “salt of the covenant” from Leviticus 2:13, uncovering how this small, easily overlooked command reveals a powerful spiritual truth: that God elevates what is humble, broken, and faithful. Drawing from Rashi, the Maharal, and the teachings of Yeshua, we discover how true worship begins with humility, repentance, and reconciliation—with others and with God.

Parashat Pekudei and Shabbat HaChodesh come together this week to offer us a profound message: before we can welcome God's presence, we must prepare our inner sanctuary. In this teaching, we explore the deeper meaning behind the four special Shabbatot leading to Passover—Shekalim, Zachor, Parah, and HaChodesh—each one targeting an inner obstacle to spiritual renewal: envy, lust, pride, and complacency. Drawing from Rav Tzadok of Lublin, the Apostolic Writings, and the teachings of Yeshua, we’re invited into a journey of personal purification and transformation. As the Mishkan was built to host the Shekhinah, so too are our hearts called to become vessels of God's presence. Now is the time to return, to rebuild, and to ready ourselves for the redemption of Pesach.

This week’s teaching explores the deep connection between Shabbat, repentance, and restoration. In Parashat Vayakhel, Moshe reminds Israel to honor Shabbat before they begin building the Tabernacle, revealing that we must return to God before making space for Him to dwell. Through the lens of Yeshua’s Shabbat healings, we discover that Shabbat is more than a day of rest. It's a time for healing, reconnection, and hope for the world to come.

What if the Mount of Transfiguration wasn’t just a supernatural event—but a moment where time itself collapsed? In this episode, we explore a mind-bending perspective: Was Moshe on Mount Sinai actually seeing Yeshua’s radiant face on the mountain? Was Eliyahu standing in the future, witnessing the return of Messiah? Through the Torah, the Prophets, and the Gospels, we uncover how past, present, and future converged in one extraordinary moment. The revelation at Sinai, Yeshua’s transfiguration, and the Messianic Kingdom are all part of the same divine blueprint—one that we are still living in today. Are we ready for what’s coming?

This Shabbat Zachor, we remember Amalek—the enemy who attacked Israel in the wilderness—and we reflect on the deeper battle that continues in every generation. The spirit of Amalek is an ideology of doubt, cruelty, and defiance against Hashem. From Haman in the Purim story to the rising antisemitism in our world today, the spirit of Amalek persists, seeking to weaken faith and erase divine truth. But how do we fight back? Join us as we explore the Torah’s command to remember and erase Amalek’s name, uncover its relevance in our time, and discover how we, as disciples of Yeshua, are called to resist Amalek’s influence.

Why does the Torah dedicate so much space to the construction of the Mishkan (the Tabernacle), a temporary structure no longer in use? In Parashat Terumah, we uncover a profound secret: the Mishkan was about preparing ourselves to be a dwelling place for Hashem. The divine presence, once resting in the Holy of Holies, is now expanding outward, transforming human hearts into sanctuaries. Through Yeshua, this mission continues, bringing Jews and Gentiles together as a holy Temple for God. How do we build a Mishkan within ourselves? How do we prepare our minds and hearts to be vessels of His presence? Join us as we explore the blueprint of holiness and what it means to make a place for Hashem in our daily lives.

After the awe-inspiring revelation at Sinai, Parashat Mishpatim brings us back to earth with laws about daily life—property disputes, damages, and ethical business dealings. But this isn’t a departure from spirituality; it’s the essence of it. The Torah teaches that true freedom is found in serving the right Master, and even in the smallest details of life, we bring holiness into the world. Are we faithful servants of Hashem, or have we let the thief—the yetzer hara—steal our purpose? Join us as we explore how to live Sinai every day.

In uncertain times, we often seek direction, just as Israel did in the wilderness. In this episode, we explore how God's Torah serves as the divine blueprint for creation and His Kingdom. From the giving of the Torah at Sinai to Yeshua’s teachings, we see how God's order brings justice, righteousness, and peace. We discuss how the Torah remains foundational in Messiah’s reign and our call to live as citizens of His coming Kingdom. Through study, mentorship, and action, we partner with Hashem’s redemptive plan, bringing His wisdom into the world today.

This week, we explore the powerful transition from galut (exile) to geulah (redemption) in Parashat Va’era. After the despair in Shemot, where Moshe’s initial mission seemed to fail, Va’era begins with God’s unwavering promise of deliverance. We uncover how the birth pangs of redemption, seen in the Torah and echoed in Yeshua’s life, reveal a profound truth: suffering often precedes salvation. Through Moshe’s transformation, God’s mighty acts, and the parallels to Yeshua’s mission, we see how redemption unfolds, both in history and in our personal lives. Even in the darkest moments, God’s promises remain faithful, leading us toward ultimate restoration.

In this episode, we uncover the profound symbolism behind a seemingly simple detail in the Torah: the donkey. Why does Moshe set his family on a donkey as he journeys to Egypt? Why does the Moshiach ride a donkey into Jerusalem? From Avraham to Moshe to Yeshua, the humble donkey appears at pivotal moments in the story of redemption.

Discover the deeper meaning of submission, humility, and elevating the mundane for His glory, and be inspired to carry the presence of the Messiah into a world longing for restoration.
