Netivyah International & Joe Shulam Podcasts Joseph Shulam

In this episode,Now we are talking about the portion that is called Naso. Naso in Hebrew means the census, the numbering, the arrangements that the children of Israel were required by God, todo in the wilderness as they march out of Mount Sinai all the way to the land of Canaan.
So, there is alot of technical things in the Book of Numbers like in the Book of Leviticus and there are administrative things and for most Christians, they don’t find so much material in there to teach from these texts. However, these texts are very important.
The Holy Spirit saw fit to deliver them to us as a part of God’s word, that as Paul puts it in the letter to Timothy, it’s profitable for correction, for instructions, for equipping the men of God to do all good works. So, if the Holy Spirit saw fit to give us this material, we need to study it, to learn from it, to glean from its practical things that apply to our lives today in the 21st century. And that will enrich us in our walk and into our faith, and into our relationship with the almighty God.

In this episode, Joe shares information regarding the names of the books in Hebrew and the names of the books in English and Latin and Greek and in all the other languages. The names of the book in Hebrew are a result of the fact that there were no names of the books, and so when they divided the books, the running text into sections that would be practical for the sake of the scrolls that they were written on, then they used one of the significant words in the beginning of the book, the Pentateuch. The five books of Moses were at one time, one composition, and they had to divide them for practical reasons because scrolls made from leather of a goat or of a sheep become heavy. Listen to this episode to learn more about why the names are different in English and Hebrew.

#31_Emor_(אמור)_-_Say

This week, we delve into a pivotal chapter of the Bible where God commands the Israelites, through Moses, to be holy as He is holy. This profound directive is explored through a detailed examination of Leviticus 19, which begins with God’s instruction to the entire congregation to embody holiness. The importance of this command, which is often overlooked or misunderstood in modern Christian contexts we learn how everyday actions and ethical behavior towards others—respecting parents, observing the Sabbath, practicing charity, and avoiding deceit—serve as practical applications of holiness. The significance of these teachings in fostering a deeper spiritual life and community bonds, urging you to apply these ancient truths to contemporary life.
