Mishkahn David Messianic Synagogue Rabbi Brian Samuel

Pesach (Passover) begins with a Shabbat and ends with a Shabbat. The interim days are called "Chol HaMoed", meaning the workdays/ordinary days of the festival. It's in these days, when things seem ordinary, as if God isn't moving, that God does amazing inner work, even when we don't realize it.

In Torah portion Tazria, we learn about the leper and leprosy. By reviewing what Torah says about this malady, we learn so much about the leper who approached Yeshua.

The New Testament, from the gospels, to Acts, to the epistles, to Revelation, all have a consistent thread... that in the end-times, deception will seek to creep into the body of Messiah. We need to be aware of this.

Parshat Tzav: The earthenware vessel that boils the sin offering needs to be destroyed. Why? Because it is porous... like we are.

Greater than the Tabernacle, Greater than the Temple, Greater than Moses, Greater than Solomon. In all things, Yeshua Is Greater.

When we feel a void, a gap, a vacuum in our lives, the natural tendency is to hastily fill it or flee from it. But there is nowhere that God is not. So often, He wants us to stay right there and trust Him.
