1) Moses led the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt and entered into a covenant with God at Mount Sinai. God gave Moses the 10 Commandments as laws for the Israelites to follow.
2) The 10 Commandments established moral and ethical standards for the Israelites and prohibited things like idolatry, blasphemy, murder, adultery, stealing, lying, and coveting another's possessions. They have remained influential moral laws for Judaism up to the present.
3) In addition to the 10 Commandments, God gave the Israelites 613 additional laws and commandments, known as mitzvot, that encompass all areas of Jewish life, law, and worship. The 10 Commandments

An introduction to a study of Jesus' Parables. Literary tools such as metaphors, similes and allegory are defined and distinguished from a parable itself. Jesus purpose for using parables is also discussed along with a 5 step approach to analyzing a parable.
What temptations do you think Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego faced when they were brought before the king (13–15)? What impresses you most about their response to these temptations (16–18)? How could you follow their example if you were found to have terminal cancer? How could their example help if you faced the possibility of losing your job or receiving a poor grade because of your refusal to compromise God's Word?
Some Christians claim that pain or sickness or trial are always the result of sin or lack of faith. How would you respond to that claim in light of this passage? As you look at Nebuchadnezzar's response (13–15, 19–23), what evidence do you see that his basic conflict was with God rather than with these three men?

Hebrew scripture nuggets hebraic heritage that the church lost- part 2Nirmal Nathan
Hebraic heritage is rich in revealing spiritual treasures to lovers of the Word of God. Only a Jew would understand the idioms, phrases and figures of speech in the original script. While being translated these either lose meaning or even lead us to erroneous interpretations. This power-point with quite a few samples of such treasures lost by the Church, seeks to create an interest in the viewer to learn the Bible from Jewish Perspective. Praise be to the Lord Yeshua Hamaschiach (Jesus Christ) for His servants among Messianic Jews and gentile Christians who strive to bring this heritage back to the family of God.
Shalom!
There are many people out there who want to start keeping the Feasts of YaHuWaH, but they don't know where to start.
Many write to me asking about how they can keep the Passover without attending a Jewish Synagogue.
Well, here is the answer! I have put together a Renewed Covenant Passover Haggadah in English for beginners and I have removed all traditions that do not line up with scripture.
Also, the Haggadah has the true name of the Father, YaHuWaH and the son Yahuwshuwa ha'Mashiyach!

Why Remember?
Audio Transcript
Remembrance: Moses Retells a Story
The place of Moses and the Israelites within Deuteronomy - Why remember? (Deut. 1-4)
Content adapted from Yancey, P. (1999). Deuteronomy: A taste of bittersweet. In The Bible Jesus
Read (pp.75-105). Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan.
I. Slide 1
Now we come to Deuteronomy, the second telling of the law. In
“Deuteronomy: A Taste of Bittersweet,” Philip Yancey shows us that this
was no mere repeating of the law; this book dramatically recounts Moses’
final three speeches to the Israelites.
II. Slide 2
A reluctant leader who had spent 40 years tending sheep in the wilderness,
Moses was abruptly called by God to emancipate the Hebrews from the
most powerful empire in the world. He did that and more, coaxing and
cajoling the freed slaves through four decades of immaturity in the Sinai
desert. Now, just as Moses’ life was ending, the Hebrews stood at the
threshold of the Promised Land, eager to take the reigns of nationhood.
Moses had one last opportunity to pass along historical memory, to purge
himself of grievances and pain, to bequeath to them the hope and grit they
would desperately need in his absence.
III. Slide 3
Deuteronomy stands as the last of the five “books of Moses,” the grand
summation, the first full-blown oratory in the Bible, and the record of Moses’
final words to the children of Israel. In forty tortuous years a stuttering
shepherd, shy of leadership and haunted by his crime of passion, he has
become one of the giants of history whose achievements changed the
planet forever. Deuteronomy gives Moses’ own account of that remarkable
transformation.

IV. Slide 4
Moses - tired and forlorn - looks out at the endless crowd stretched out
before him and begins: “You are too heavy a burden for me to carry alone…
You were unwilling to go up; you rebelled against the command of the Lord
your God. You grumbled in your tents… You have been rebellious against
the Lord ever since I have known you.”
V. Slide 5
“Because of you, the Lord became angry with me also and said, you shall not
enter the Land, either. I told you, but you would not listen. You rebelled against
the Lord’s command. I pleaded with the Lord, ‘Let me go over and see the good
land beyond the Jordan that fine hill country and Lebanon.’ But because of you
the Lord was angry with me and would not listen to me.”
VI. Slide 6
But Moses knows, despite their rebellion and despite his own disappointment,
that God’s action towards them is full of grace. Above all, he wants them to
Remember: “The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because
you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all
peoples. But it was because the Lord loved you and kept the oath he swore to
your forefathers that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you
from the land of slavery, from the ...

4. Understanding covenants with Moses What do you know about Moses and covenants that G-d Made with him? A covenant is an agreement between two parties. There are two types of covenants: conditional and unconditional. A conditional or bilateral covenant is an agreement that is binding on both parties for its fulfillment. Both parties agree to fulfill certain conditions. If either party fails to meet their responsibilities, the covenant is broken and neither party has to fulfill the expectations of the covenant. An unconditional or unilateral covenant is an agreement between two parties, but only one of the two parties has to do something. Nothing is required of the other party.
5. Understanding covenants with Moses The covenant with Abraham was the start of the story of the Jews but the covenant that Moses mediated between G-d and the Jewish people was the start of the Jewish nation.
6. Jews enslaved in Egypt 1300 BCE Many Jewish people were living in Egypt. The pharaoh of Egypt had made the Jewish people become slaves. Whenever Jews want to remind themselves of the character of G-d they remember the events of the Exodus Moses was a Hebrew (Jew) but was raised Egyptian.

12. Moses in the wilderness After some time in the desert the Jewish people quickly forgot that the G-d of Abraham had delivered them from slavery in Egypt. They began to turn to other G-d and idols that were prevalent at the time. The created for themselves a golden calf at the foot of Mount Sinai. This angered Moses and G-d. it was at this point in Jewish history that G-d gives the 10 commandments (Mitzvot or Laws). Instructions for the Jewish nation.

On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. 11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. 12 "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you. 13 "You shall not murder. 14 "You shall not commit adultery. 15 "You shall not steal. 16 "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. 17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house.
