A look at the Deity of Yeshua. Is Yeshua really YHVH? Then we turn to Christmas and some explanations Christians give on why they think its fine to celebrate.

This week we look at the pope’s suggestion to change the liturgical form of the Lord’s Prayer. Also a discussion about the JW view of the Sacred Name, and a look at arguments against what some might call “Traditional Theology.”

This week we look at 1Cor. 11 and head coverings. Also, can we celebrate the Sabbath on any day of the week?

Following our discussion last week about the Messiah in the Exodus, we look at Emails and comments that have come in that suggestion circumcision is a thing of the past. These claims are based on entirely on Paul’s writings but tend to disregard the rest of Scripture. How do we reconcile Paul and his seeming disregard for the sign of the Abrahamic Covenant?

We continue our discussion of the First Century Messianic expectation. This week we will look at the word “Messiah” in the first century, and what this word meant. To better understand the Messianic expectation of the first century, we will look at some of the texts that were used when speaking about the Messiah. Interestingly, they all share one thing in common.

We continue our discussion of the First Century Messianic expectation, by looking at the book of John and several of the instances when Yeshua said something that was misunderstood. In the three specific instances, we will look at, there are three different reactions from the three different kinds of people. Why did Yeshua veil His message at times? For the disciples, it wasn’t until His resurrection that they understood the meaning of His veiled words.

We continue our discussion of the First Century Messianic expectation. This week we shift to looking at Yeshua Himself and what He said. Why did Yeshua tell so many to keep silent about who He was? Why does Yeshua seem to vail who He really his?

We look at lots of questions that have been sent in, concerning our last show. We will discuss the idea of the “Trinity” in the Tanach, Passages that say God is not a man, and look at why Jesus prays to the Father if Jesus is Himself God.

A look at the parting of ways between Christianity and Judaism concerning Passover, Easter, and Communion. Do the Gospels portray Yeshua following the traditional Passover Haggadah as found within the Mishnah? And if so, shouldn’t Christians celebrate it that way too?

A look at Yeshua’s quotation of Psalm 82. What does John 10:34 really mean? Also, a look at the significance of bread and wine at the Last Supper. Does Yeshua’s emphasis on bread and wine signal a new ritual act?

With Passover approaching, we look at some of the traditions in the traditional Passover Seder and discuss their origins. Do they date back to the time of Yeshua, or are there different explanations on how these traditions were formed?

A look at 1Cor. 11 and unbelievers at the Passover table. Also a look at the word “Pascha” (Passover), and finally a discussion about the ceremonial cups at the Last Supper.

This week we look at counting the omer and why this is attached to the festival of Passover. We also look at Galatians 3:23-29 and see how this passage is connected to the Omer and the festival of Shavuot.

In this week’s show, we look at Yeshua’s nature and John 14:28. Also, a look at an article in the most recent issues of the Journal of Biblical Literature by Paula Fredriksen titled, “How Jewish is God? Divine Ethnicity in Paul’s Theology.” What are the implications of the article, and did Fredriksen get it right?

This week we look several emails that have come in. Our main topic will look at questions posed to us by a proponent of the “Et” theology. This Hebrew symbol has been viewed as a direct object marker throughout the ages, but is there more to it?

This week we welcome Tim Hegg onto the show to discuss a book that has been making waves in the Messianic movement. This book, Reading Moses Finding Jesus, has been endorsed by some leaders, but what does it say about sanctification for believers in the body of Messiah?

This week we look at a statement put out by a ministry that gives their official stance on the Torah for believers. Although these statements are nothing new, they show the mindset of some within ministry that are “keeping Torah.”

This week we begin with a quick discussion about women and tzitzit, and then turn to Galatians 4:4. What does it mean that Yeshua was born “under law?” Often, those within mainstream Christianity will argue that this means Yeshua was born in a time when the Torah needed to be observed, but after His death there is no longer any need to be “under law,” meaning “keep Torah,” but is this what Galatians 4:4 really means?
