In this class we begin to take a more in-depth look at the structure of the First Century Synagogue.  In looking at the structure of the Synagogue we look at the role that Yeshua may have played in the locale Synagogue.   Yeshua read the Haftarah passages in the service. What else could he have done during this service?

In this class we delve deeper into our investigation of Yeshua in the Synagogue.  We review Edersheim’s book “Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah” as a means for understanding all that happened in the Synagogue that Shabbat morning.  Then we begin looking at theother prayers and activities he was involved with in the Synagogue.

Tonight 05/21/2009 we will continue our study series on concerning prayers that were relevant during the time of Yeshua.  We will continue with Yeshua in the Synagogue looking at the Siddur and it reading in the time of Yeshua.

Also note: We will be using the Artscroll Siddur (Sefard) Weekday/Shabbat/Festival to help facilitate our understanding of these prayers. If you have the Siddur (Prayer book) it will be helpful. Likewise, the class notes from last week may help in tonight’s presentation.  Feel free to download then from the section below.

In this class we look at Yeshua in the Synagogue.  Luke Chapter four sets Yeshua in the Synagogue reading the Haftaerah passages from Yeshiyahu (Isaiah). 61.  It seems plausable that these passages are Yuval (Jubilee) passages.  What all did Yeshua do in this service.  We look at Alfred Edershiem’s book “The life and Times of Jesus the Messiah” to discover the secrets of Yeshua Shabbat experience in this Synagogue.
