WORD STUDY – FOR MY SAKE – למעני
Isaiah 48:11: “For my own sake, (even) for my own sake, will I do it; for how should my name be polluted? And I will not give my glory to another.” Wow, this is really telling about God. The prior verse declares that He will test us in the fires of affliction and...
WORD STUDY – GOD SEES THE HEART
1Samuel 16:7: “But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” ...
WORD STUDY – THE 36 RIGHTEOUS – צדיקימ נסתרימ

WORD STUDY – WELCOME TO BETHEL AND GILGAL – ביתל הג לגל
Amos 4:4: “Come to Bethel, and transgress, To Gilgal, and multiply transgressions: And bring your sacrifices in the morning. And your tithes after three days. Well, there is a lot of revival buzz going on in the Midwest. As I understand this revival began with an...

WORD STUDY – THE MIRY CLAY -יונ
Psalms 69:2: “I sink in deep mire, where [there is] no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.” This Psalm is attributed to David but many scholars do not believe it was written by David as the style of Hebrew that is used...
WORD STUDY – FURNACE OF AFFLICTION – בכור עני
Isaiah 48:10: “Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.” Someone on my blog asked me to comment on this verse. The really wonderful thing about writing a blog as opposed to speaking before a live...
WORD STUDY – THE CRAZY MAN הלל
I Samuel 21:18, “And he changed his demeanor before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.” Psalms 56:5, “In God I will praise His word, In God do I trust, I will not be...
WORD STUDY – OUR GIFT TO CREATE –עשׁה
Ecclesiastes 12:14: “Because God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.” It is interesting that the word for God is haelohim and has an article in front of it. It should more properly be rendered as Because...
WORD STUDY – GOD’S CREDIBILITY – מופת
Exodus 5:2: “And Pharaoh said, Who [is] the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the LORD, neither will I let Israel go.” Exodus 7:9: “When Pharaoh says to you: ‘Prove yourself by working a miracle.’ One of the most...
