The Days of Creation – Genesis Days, part 1

Posted on August 16, 2023 | Comments Off on The Days of Creation – Genesis Days, part 1

With the new Bible reading cycle starting in October, I thought about getting a head start on the days of creation. There is so much to cover in that first week, we just can’t cover it all. DiscipleDojo, over on YouTube has started a series about the days of creation. I don’t know how long the series will continue, but hopefully, as we go through the Days of Teshuva, the series will cover most of the days.

The Days of Teshuva begin tonight at sundown. Here is the first video episode. Feel free to watch all of the available episodes over on YouTube. But I will post them here until we catch up with him. Enjoy.

The Ascension of The Messiah

Posted on May 19, 2023 | Comments Off on The Ascension of The Messiah

The ascension of the Messiah is something that most believers know about but don’t really know anything about because there isn’t much in Scripture said about it. In fact, Matthew, Mark, and John don’t even mention the ascension. The last four verses in Luke mention the ascension in only one of those verses. It is not until Luke continues his account in Acts that we are given a little more detail about the ascension.

What can we learn about the ascension with so little detail, and is it even an important doctrine?

Second Passover and the Three Pilgrimage Feasts

Posted on May 4, 2023 | Comments Off on Second Passover and the Three Pilgrimage Feasts

 “And there were certain men who were unclean through touching a dead body, so that they could not keep the Passover on [the appointed] day, and they came before Moses and Aaron on that day. 7 And those men said to [Moses], ‘We are unclean through touching a dead body. Why are we kept from bringing the LORD’s offering at its appointed time among the people of Israel?'” (Numbers 9:6-7)

There’s an often overlooked story in the Bible about a second Passover. There is not much detail to the story other than saying that the second Passover is to be kept with all the ordinances of the first Passover. But what happens if you don’t keep the Passover? Is it a sin?

Passion Week – Day #11

Posted on April 9, 2023 | 2 comments

Matthew 28:1 “Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.”

Mark 16:1 “When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint Him.”

Luke 24:1 “But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.”

John 20:1 “Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.”

And so begins a day that is full of controversy.

Passion Week – Day #10

Posted on April 8, 2023 | Comments Off on Passion Week – Day #10

It is now the morning of the weekly Sabbath. Yeshua has been in the tomb for three nights and this is the third day.  His resurrection will happen sometime this evening. (The tomb won’t be open until morning, but that’s a story for tomorrow.)  The women have carried His passion since His crucifixion.  They were there at the cross watching Him die, at the tomb watching Joseph and Nicodemus, and they bought spices to anoint His body.  They were only waiting for this Sabbath to be over so they could go to the tomb with the spices.

Passion Week – Day #9

Posted on April 7, 2023 | Comments Off on Passion Week – Day #9

Not much is said about the Friday after His death.  Mark 16:1 records that “When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body.”  Luke 23:56 records that “Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes.  But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment.”

Reconciling these two things is a matter of debate.  Mark’s account appears that the Sabbath mentioned is the weekly Sabbath (Saturday) because verse two says that they went to the tomb on the first day of the week.  In Luke’s account, verse 55 says the women watched where Joseph placed the body, and then they went home to prepare spices.  So, what is the timing of the women and the spices? Did they have spices at home to prepare, or did they buy the spices after the Sabbath before going to the tomb? And if the latter is the case, then when did they prepare the spices?

Passion Week – Day #8

Posted on April 6, 2023 | Comments Off on Passion Week – Day #8

It’s the day after Preparation Day, that being the Passover, so it is now the High Sabbath, the 15th of the first month, and the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The chief priests and Pharisees go to see Pilate to tell him that Yeshua said He would raise from the dead after three days, so they would like Pilate to place guards at the tomb until those three days were passed (Matt. 27:62-66).

Passion Week – Day #7

Posted on April 5, 2023 | Comments Off on Passion Week – Day #7

The evening had come. Passover. It was now the 14th of the first month and Yeshua and His Disciples were reclining at the table. We have already gone over some of the things from yesterday’s post but not necessarily in an orderly fashion. Matthew and Mark record that they had the evening meal and Judas was exposed as the betrayer. Then they both tell of the institution of the Lord’s Supper. Luke doesn’t record Judas being called out as the betrayer but just shows that at the meal, the Lord’s Supper took place. So now, Judas has left the room and Yeshua teaches the remaining disciples. All three synoptic gospels tell of Peter’s future denial, but only Luke records the Disciples arguing over who was the greatest. And then, all three synoptics say that they left for Gethsemane. Next, we’ll see what John records about the further teachings and then get onto the arrest, the trial, and the crucifixion. It’s a long day.
