Welcome to the new series from Machon HaTzur on the Book of Deuteronomy!

In the first episode, Yochanan and Dan begin to unpack the Book of Deuteronomy, discussing its internal divisions,recurring motifs, and above all, the hope it holds for a living relationship between the people of Israel and God – a relationship rooted in God's power, not the people's efforts!

Happy listening!

This is our third episode diving into the Psalms.
After having covered Psalms 1 and 2, Dan and Yohanan now turn to look at the connections between them. They discuss how the opening Psalms serve as an introduction to the whole Psalter, and how the Book of Psalms seems to have been intentionally structured. Enjoy your listening!

Yochanan & Dan move from Psalm 1 to Psalm 2, and delve into the Hebrew, the structure, the connection and literary devices, and where this psalm sits in the Bible.

Psalms 1 & 2 have been on Yochanan's heart and mind, and in this episode he will tackle Psalm 1, together with Dan, and look at the structure, images, meaning behind some of the Hebrew words, and teasing out some of its connections to Psalm 2 and elsewhere in the Bible. 
This is the first of several episodes to include Psalm 2, and then others on the Psalter

What is God’s promise for the land? What is his plan for his people? Does the promised land still belong to Israel? Hoe is God going to put his plan to action? 
Join Michael, Dan and Yohanan on a discussion of Ezekiel 36, while they try and answer theses questions and a few more.
