WORD STUDY – FREE INDEED – שׁרירתא חור
John 8:36: “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” I picked up Liesl in my bus for her monthly grocery shopping. Liesl is in her nineties yet still retains her beauty, elegance and her touch of aristocracy that she had known...
WORD STUDY – THE LORD SPOKE FROM THE MIDST OF THE FIRE – ידבר יהוה מתוכ האשׁ
Deuteronomy 4:12: “And the Lord spake unto you out of the midst of the fire, you heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude, only you heard a voice.” In the early 16th Century the church was one of the most powerful forces in the world. Kings and...
WORD STUDY – TRICKLE OF RAIN AND DEW – יערפ כמטר תזר כטל
Deuteronomy 32;2: “My doctrine shall drop as rain, my speech shall distill as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass.” We learn in Deuteronomy that God sends his doctrine as the rain or the dew. When it comes to...
WORD STUDY – MOSES PRAYED OVER GOD (PART II) – יתפלל משׁה יהוה
Numbers 11:2: “And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched.” Yesterday I presented an alternative rendering for Numbers 11:1-3 which presented a God who was heartbroken over the murmuring and complaining...
WORD STUDY – HIS ANGER WAS KINDLED – יחר אנו
Numbers 11:1-2: “And [when] the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard [it]; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed [them that were] in the uttermost parts of the camp. And the people cried...
WORD STUDY – NONE WILL EXALT HIM – לא ירוממ
Hosea 11:7: “And my people are bent to backsliding from me though they call them to the most high, none at all will exalt him.” The syntax at the end of this verse is highly disputed. The KJV and other translations will render this as the people...
WORD STUDY – DRAWING NEAR TO GOD – נגשׁ
Genesis 44:18: “Then Judah came near unto him, and said, ‘Oh, my Lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my Lord’s ears…’” I read something interesting in the Talmud about this verse. The word for come near is nagash. This has the idea of drawing...
WORD STUDY – WE ARE FILTHY – נאלחו
Psalm 14:3: “They are all gone aside, they are altogether become filthy, there is none that doeth good, no not one.” I remember in Bible College I had a class on How To Study the Bible. Our instructor told us we need to read the Bible like we read a love...
WORD STUDY – THE STRENGTH OF HORSES – בגבורת הסוס
Psalms 147:10: “He delighteth not in the strength of horses; he takes no pleasure in the legs of man.” This afternoon I listened to an amazing story told by a woman who related how she became a Christian as a teenager and was just so in love with God and was...
WORD STUDY – THY DESIRE SHALL BE FOR YOUR HUSBAND – אישׁכ תשׁוקתכ
Genesis 3:16: “Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire [shall be] to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.” Over the years of listening to preachers...
