WORD STUDY – TOO MANY – העמ
Judges 7:2 “And the Lord said unto Gideon: ‘The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying: mine own hand hath saved me.” We have all heard this story in Sunday School and it...
HEBREW WORD STUDY – PURELY PURGE AWAY
Isaiah 1:25: “I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all they tin.” I recently watched a silent movie on You Tube that showed an old Model T Ford from the twenties driving along a rough dirt road. It is a wonder these cars...
WORD STUDY – NOT BY MIGHT NOT BY POWER לא בחיל אבכח
Zechariah 4:6: “Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This [is] the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.” I thought of this verse very early this morning as I sat on my...
WORD STUDY – MINCHAH, KORBAN AND RUM -מנחה קרבנ רומ
Exodus 35:21: “ And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, [and] they brought the LORD'S offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy...
WORD STUDY – YOU ARE A HUSBAND OF BLOOD TO ME – חתנ דמימ אתה לי
Exodus 4:24-26: “And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met him, and sought to kill him. Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast [it] at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband [art] thou to me. So...
Word Study – His Heart is Not With You – לבו בלעמכ
Proverbs 23:7: “For as he thinketh in his heart, so [is] he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart [is] not with thee.” Something I have never understood in our Western culture are beauty pageants. I applaud the feminist movement for having...
WORD STUDY – CLEAVE IN THE LORD – הדבקמ ביהוה
Deuteronomy 4:4: “But ye that did cleave unto the LORD your God [are] alive every one of you this day.” The context of Deuteronomy 4:4 is teaching that when others died Israel did not because they cleaved unto the Lord. That is such a wonderful promise...
WORD STUDY – UPON SHEMINITH –על השׁמיוית
Psalms 12:1: “To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.” The word sheminith means the eighth and is believed to refer to the eight cords or strings of the harp...
WORD STUDY – HAMAS – המס
Psalms 11:5: “The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.” I really hate when our Modern Translations use the word hate in association with God. I mean if He can hate even a violent person then what is it...
WORD STUDY – JOY COMES IN THE MORNING – לבקר רנה
I am finishing up a new book with a working title of When A Hebrew Word Hits the Road Bringing Biblical Hebrew Words to 21st Century Christian Living. Below is taken from one of its chapters. Psalms 30:5 “For His anger is but for the moment, His favor is for a life...
