Elul and Repentance Defined.
In this class we explore the idea of teshhuva and its relationship to the neshamah (inner man / soul).
We explore the character of the neshama and its realtionship to the Torah and HaShem. All of this gives us a key to the path of repentance.
Teshuvah / Repentance
In this class we discuss the power of repentance. We explore Song of Songs and Ephesians 1. We explore Ephesian from a Hebrew mindset and the Hebrew text of the Hebrew New Testament.
We explore that which happened “Before the foundation of the earth.” and the selective process mentioned by Shaul (Paul).
The month of Elul
What is the Biblical month of Elul all about?
We begin our discussion concerning the Biblical calendar. We begin by discussing the 40 days of repentance (teshuvah). What does the Hebrew word “teshuvah” really mean? We discuss this word and the idea of Teshuavah.
We move into the book of Ephesians where Shaul (Paul) addresses the “saints” and the “elect.” We discuss these idea and elaborate in some detail.
This will be the discussion for the next couple of weeks.
We have included an outline of notes taken during the class. Download them here.
In this class I discuss the path of the fact that man is multi-dimensional. Then we progress to Zecheriah 8:23 where we discuss the fact that HaShem states that the Gentile would take hold, take hold of the corner of the Jewish man’s garment. We discuss this idea in relation to the Gentile becoming a part of the Believing community.
Next we move to the book of Acts a look at chapter 15 where the Jerusalem council makes discisions concerning the Gentile and his relationship with HaShem. Here we discuss, in some detail the the Jewish sect that demanded that Gentile be circumcised before they can be “saved.”
We also discuss Yeshua as Mashiach ben Yoseph.
