Isaiah 9:1-7 "A Great Christmas Message"

A look at Isaiah 9:1-7; Let's take a look at these verses and see what they are saying to us. The Ruach HaKodesh (the Holy Spirit) speaks through Yeshahayu (Isaiah) and says; The people living in darkness have seen a great light! upon those living in the land that lies in the shadow of death, light ...

Genesis 44:18-47:27 (Reconciliation! Yosef and brothers)

PARASHA: “VaYIGASH” (and he drew near) GENESIS 44:18-47:27 In this Parashah, we read that “he (Y'hudah) drew near” to Yosef, and shows himself as truly repentant for his past actions against Yosef, for selling him for the price of a common slave. And we see the reaction of Yosef once he hears Y'huda...

A look at 1 Kings 3:15-4:1 and Matt 16

1 KINGS 3:15-4:1 In this scripture portion, we see Solomon lifting up “burnt offerings” and “peace-offerings” after also having “dreams” In his dream YHVH asked him what he wished for, “For wisdom, an understanding heart to judge these people” and YHVH thus granted him what he wished for. This shoul...

A look at Genesis 41:1-44:7 (Joseph is used by God)

Parashah: “Miketz” (at the end of) GENESIS 41:1-44:17 Gene When we look into this parashah study, we see Yosef, who was, in a way of speaking, in the “pit” He was cast into the prison for something he did not do, yet he continued to trust YHVH for his needs. This reminds us of Melech David's words “...

A look at Amos 2:6-3:8 and John 10:22-23

AMOS 2:6-3:8 The prophet preaches “judgment on Israel” (because they sell the righteous for silver), and for many more evil deeds, they have turned away from God and are behaving like the heathen, that know not the LORD. Yosef was righteous, and he sold for 20 pieces of silver, Yeshua was/is righteo...

Joseph, from slave to ruler, in God's perfect plan (Gen 37-40)

PARASHA: “VaYeshev” (and he settled) GENESIS 37:1-1-40:23 In this study, the focus is on Yosef, who is going to be in the limelight of God. Things seem to be going from bad to worse for this young teenager. it wasn't all his fault we could say. His father Jacob held him high up on a pedestal, “Papa'...

OBADIYAH 1:1-21 This prophet talks about Esau as “Edom” similar to the name “Adam” yet spelled with a “vav” Edom is condemned, for his attack on Jacob, later on, the Edomites attack the Israelites, (brothers against brothers) Edom will be “brought down from the lofty cliffs” I have been to “Edom” wh...

Jacob and Esau; Reconciliation! It's for all of us! (Gen 32)

Parashah: “VaYishlach” (and he sent) GENESIS: 32:3-36:43 We see in this week's parashah, that Ya'akov is on his way home to Beth-El, He comes to his “encounter” with his brother Esav. It is a time of tension for him, as we know, he “stole” from him the blessing. Or was it really theft? Remember that...

Re: literary agents ?

Don't have the funds for self-publishing, all our funds are wrapped up in our moving expenses, no such thing as luck, only blessings or curses. Right now, I just send out the eBook for free or collect whatever a person wants to give me, be it a quarter, a dollar, three dollars, 20 dollars, or whatev...
