Old Testament Bible Study for a New Testament Understanding

Torah is the Hebrew word for the first 5 books of the Bible and it is the foundation of the Old Testament just as the Old Testament is the foundation of the New. The Old Testament (Tanach) is the Holy Scripture that Jesus (Yeshua, in Hebrew) taught from, and His Disciples referred to, since there was no New Testament until well after the time of the Apostles that succeeded Him. The Old and New Testaments are inseparable and only when used together do we have a complete, unified, divinely-inspired Bible. Torah Class cross-references the Torah and Old Testament passages with New Testament passages to reveal their seamless continuity. TorahClass.com is the recognized premier online source for Old Testament bible studies and scripture research for Christians, Messianic Jews, and all seekers of truth. (See our FAQs for a quick overview).

A Response to John Piper's Article

"Israel, Palestine and the Middle East"

Part 2 (of 2)

by Rabbi Baruch

Under his third point, Mr. Piper has no trouble quoting Scripture that speaks to terrible curses that will (have been) placed upon Israel. For example he writes,

"…in the terrible list of curses that God promised to bring on the people if they broke his covenant and forsook him was this, 'And the Lord took delight in doing you good and multiplying you. So the Lord will take delight in bringing ruin upon you and destroying you. And you shall be plucked off the land that you are entering to take possession of it.'" (Deuteronomy 28:63)

He continues to write, "Throughout the history of Israel, covenant breaking and disobedience and idolatry disqualified Israel from the present divine right to the land."

This is a gross misstatement of the Word of G-d.

The Bible was written by Hebrews

and therefore it is critical to understand ancient Middle Eastern and Semitic biblical-era cultures and to learn the meaning of the many unique Hebrew and Aramaic words, expressions, and idioms found in Scripture. Torah Class presents a biblical (rather than doctrinal) exegetical scripture study perspective while embracing a spirit-filled, intellectually honest, and refreshingly understandable exploration of God’s Word that Jews and gentiles from a variety of denominations and affiliations will find invaluable.
