Torah Teachers’ Round Table – Tanakh Edition – Isaiah chapters 58-59

Today we are talking about the bridge our Heavenly Father provides for us to keep us on His safe path. We are reading from Psalm 119 where we read from David that the Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. Our Heavenly Father wants to keep us from injuring ourselves, so He has marked a safe path through the mine field of life. As long as we stay on that path, we won't be injured. We will have life and blessings. Will everything always be a bed of roses?! Absolutely not. Look at Job. But he stayed faithful, even when it didn't feel like it because he trusted in his Redeemer. That is what we are called to today. Blessings. Note: The past few weeks I have been unable to load up this podcast on this website.

On today’s show, the second of a two-part interview with Bruce Brill, who wrote Deceit of an Ally – A Memoir of Military Anti-Semitism, NSA’s Secret Jew Room and Yom Kippur War Treachery. Bruce and four other American US Army servicemen worked for the US National Security Agency (NSA) in 1973. They came to discover a true story of an Un-American Deep-State NSA Cabal in the highest echelon of Washington, D.C.’s Swamp of corruption. They came to learn that US intelligence not only knew Egypt and Syria were going to attack Israel but knew this for a certainty, knew it days in advance, and knew when the attack would commence, contradicting the US intelligence agencies' own claims that everyone was fooled and fully taken by surprise in the events of October 6, 1973, referred to as the Yom Kippur War. Of the 1300 books written about that event, not one reveals how Israel fell prey to a deception perpetrated by their American Ally that cost Israel over 2,600 lives. Brill and his colleagues realized that Israel was NOT informed of what American intelligence knew because Israel’s top leaders were intentionally given false intelligence that the Arabs would NOT attack. Precisely fifty years later, this same Cabal of deception once again stepped into action and carried out its evil work before the alleged surprise sneak attack against Israel on October 7, 2023, leading to where we are today in Israeli and Middle East politics. Although the "Jew Room" term is no longer used, it has morphed in name and is still active in the NSA American intelligence community. Here is Bruce Brill to continue his story.

The Torah teachers complete the study of the Book of the prophet Isaiah chapter 60, and then continue into chapter 61.

• Is there anything bad or wrong about eschatology or being concerned about the end time? • What does the concern about the end time have to do with darkness and light? As we read what the apostle Shaul, or Paul, wrote to the congregation of Messianic believers in his letter to the Thessalonians, in chapter five, Rabbi Steve Berkson points out that Shaul was doing some damage control regarding the erroneous teaching about the return of Messiah even back then. • What was the prayer Rabbi Berkson prayed when it came to teaching about the end time? • How does one “prepare” for the return of Messiah? This teaching was given during the 2020 election year, and Rabbi Berkson imparts wisdom about our mindset toward our nation’s politics and Elohim’s role in them. • Does being drunk only pertain to alcohol? What does being sober look like? In Thessalonians chapter five, the apostle gives direction to the believers on how they should live their lives as they look forward to Messiah’s return. Rabbi Berkson unpacks what ‘sober’ looks like and what is meant by putting on the breastplate of belief and love and the helmet of the Rabbi Berkson unpacks what ‘sober’ looks like and what is meant by putting on the breastplate of belief and love, as well as the helmet of the expectation of deliverance. In verses 12-13, Shaul writes that he begs the believers to “know” those who labor among you and are over you in the Master and admonish you and to hold them in the highest regard in love. Rabbi Berkson relates what it’s like to be one of those in leadership and then explains how you should treat those in leadership with whom you interact. • Should your relationship with leadership be based on someone else’s experience with that leadership? Once again, Rabbi Steve Berkson delves deeper into scripture to uncover more dimensions of Darkness and Light.

This week's parsha, Vayetze (Genesis/Bereshiet 25:19-32:3) follows the story of Yakov/Jacob after he leaves home and heads to the place of his mother Rivka/Rebeccah's family. And like so many things concerning the Patriarchs, it is not only maximally Politically NOT-Correct, but practically a litmus test for how far so much of the sun-god-day church has departed from the lessons of Scripture. The Erev Shabbat reading: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/SSM-12-6-24-Vayetze-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 There is a whole lot that much of 'xtianity' really doesn't like about this one. And for the same reasons, some of the context may even seem confusing to 'modern sensitivities.' Why, for example, is the man who lied to his father to "usurp" his elder brother Esau's blessing, and birthright, also held up as an icon of "emet," the Hebrew word for 'truth'? And why would the Creator of the Universe and Author of Scripture choose to use a man with four wives to bring forth His people? Is it possible that there's something in this story that 'the Church' would prefer to overlook, or outright hide? This story is not merely NOT-PC. It's a glaring example of what so pervades the world that so hates His Word today: Vayetze: Real vs Fake" Means! https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/WT-CooH-12-7-24-Vayetze-Fake-vs-real-the-NOT-PC-Salvation-of-YHVH-podcast-xxx.mp3 The combined two-part teaching is here:

The Torah teachers reviews Isaiah chapter 58, and then chapter 59.
