- The beginning of it all! It starts here. We are starting down the first 5 books of the Bible, and giving you all the juicy details of your favorite Bible stories.
The actually learning starts at 5:05
It's a slow start, but give it a chance, and the Living Word is going to start to open up, please G-d
Well, you must be excited! We are about to take an amazing adventure together through the Midrash.
The Midrash is ancient biblical commentary. It is a collection of several different works that expound on classical Rabbinic literature.
You're right....that doesnt sound so amazing, but check it out! It might surprise you!
I'm pulling from several different sources.
We will be dabbling in the Midrash Rabba,
the Midrash Tanchuma, and portions of the
Talmud, known as the Aggadah, which means the telling in Aramaic. It is the non legal narrative section of the Talmud, containing
"parables" and anecdotes to help illustrate certain ideas in Jewish ideology.
As I always say...to really get into the Midrash
you need to believe....
•Its absolutely literal
•Its absolutely allegorical
•Its both
•Its neither
....all at the same time. Try wrapping your head around that!
Resources I pull from,
The Midrash Says by Rabbi Moshe Weissman
The Book of Our Heritage by Rabbi Eliyahu Ki Tov
Rabbi Yosef Deutsch has an AMAZING collection of books on the Midrash written in story form.

You have no idea how much I enjoyed this. I'm a Christian, but always love to listen to Jews talk about God. Y'all have a way of bridging knowledge gaps that are not touched on in Christian teaching. I just love it! And that illustration you gave at the end about God resting on the Sabbath was so beautiful. Just made me want to go and spend time with Him.
Thank you so much for your kind words. May HaShem bless your learning and may you see only revealed blessing!
I am reading the Bible again and using a Hebrew bible this year, so I discovered Midrash in the commentary. I love it
I am a Christian who is fascinated with Judaism, the more I research these writings I find myself closer to my creator
May HaShem bless you to come closer and closer to Him and His Torah.
Only good news and revealed blessing!!
This channel is a blessing to me. The nearest Jewish community to me (I'm in rural Australia) is four hours away.
This is a great channel to be able to unpack and understand HaShems words and plans.
Thank you so much for this message. Baruch HaShem!
I’m reading a book by a Rabbi that suggests studying and reading scripture as if they are a collection of dreams. And apply dream interpretation to them. Fun way to study scripture.
“Alokhim is the name associated with creation and justice because the whole world is established on justice”. A shake to our conscience !
“We start in darkness and finish in light”.
How true .
Noah in the ( closed Ark ) for a year.
Jacob at Yabboc ( dark) before changing to Israel .
Israelites protected at night ( Pescha ) before leaving Egypt .
Moses on Horib ( cloud) before receiving Torah ,
Joshua at Jericho ( night ) before claiming back the land.
PS. Even at birth , we move from darkness ( womb) to light .
Baroukh Hashem for providing through Rabbi Batya ,
Your videos are helping me become closer to Hashem. Thank you so much!
Shalom!, you brought me to tears more than once on this video alone. Can’t wait to see more. Thank you Sister!
Baruch HaShem. Thank you very much
“Adoni starts with Alef , the first of the Alphabet. ( Spirituality comes first ).
Bershit starts with B , for Beit & Beni.
(materialism comes second)”.
Truly , Priorities are embed in Torah , deciphered by Midrash , conveyed by the people entrust with them both, (Jewish).
Loved your outro. As for glorifying the Lord God, i believe it's to love him and to love others as ourselves.
Hebrews 11:6
And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
Thank you for this you are wonderful. Praise God
Baruch HaShem. Thank you for your kind words
Regarding eating the whole tree, its interesting that chipmunks come and eat my entire fig tree once the leaves fall off.
"Every day we should be doing Teshuvah" I will definitely work on it!
So impressed with this series. The Midrash Rabbah is criminally difficult to find in translation
That's really true
Thank you for your teaching and may Hachem bless you !
Amen! Thank you!
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for these! 😭😂😇🙏
Ammaazzing
In earthly , we first hear of “created” .
In spiritual ( Ten Commandments) , we first hear of “Anikhi” ( I am)
Iyhaa sister ,you are the best
“Any rain coming on Israeli is as great as giving Torah “ . Interesting
brilliant, Batya !! I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM YOU !!
started watching while 'work from home' started today. thou of emailing Qn to you but think many would also benefit here: 1) Work day start from which day in Israel? for the west is Monday.
2) will depends on Batya's response =)
Howdy! Our work week starts on Sunday.
Can you please tell me where to find the midrash where Heshem veiws the Torah and the tau appears first and then is told it will be last? I found it once but I have found it again. It has to do with a vision from Heshem
Hi,Nathan! It took me so long to reply to you because I kept intended to see if I could locate that midrash. I still haven't had a chance to look, but, please HaShem I will. So sorry it's taken me so long to reply. Have a great day
@@batyaintzfat thank you I appriciate that you put in the work to try for me. Shalom shalom
Love your work so much! I don't have much. But I would love to support/donate if it is available.
Thank you so much!. Never necessary but always greatly appreciated.

Thank you most kindly!
Nice interesting vid Jesús Christ was also a jew and a rabbi right ?
Thank you. That's right
This is awesome. Why dont you have a bigger following?
Lol. It's all relative. For the first 10 months I was making these videos, I had 3 subscribers....and one was my mom and the other, my sister.
I never imagined I would have 200 people that want to listen to me ramble.
Thank you for your comment!
Manifesting his glory in the world? . When the glory of G-of prevail , the power of evil vanishes ,
John1:4-5
4. In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Interesting
Hey, Isaac. I can't find your other comments. I putting stuff together for my next video. If you are still interested, I'd like to address them, with HaShems help. They're really good questions and I think many other people are also wondering.
If you are interested you can email me at learnwithbatya@gmail.com
Thanks and shavua tov
You know we live on a flat Plane right
"Midrash !"
To disjointed for me. Needs more flow
Appreciate the constructive criticism.
Agreed that it feels super choppy. It's slightly better if you listen to it at a faster speed, I noticed.
I hope there is some improvement in the latest videos.
Trial by fire... lol
Disagree .
It is just right , at least for a starter like me . In addition, it is more natural like this .
@@batyaintzfat
As you said “A little bit from here and there “ .
Never realised Abraham was visited by G-d just after “he circumcised himself “
I have never heard Midrash before today.
Keep up the good work Rabbi Batya
Welcome to the midrash and thank you for your kind words!! Have a blessed week.
@@batyaintzfat
I am interested in the Kadish Barnieh event when the first generation who left Egypt did not enter the promised land .
What does Midrash say ?
Talks to much jibberish
Wanna hear tha midrash but you talk alot.lol
This is true... I also found it helpful to fast forward it..
It's taught that Gd created 10 parts speech and to women He gave 9.
Do me a favor BLOCK ME FROM THIS SITE !!!!
THANKS
I release you from this public forum, you voluntarily visited....
You're welcome.
The word "Genesis "..is NOT a Hebrew word but part Latin and Greek. And it means:
"Gen" for genes or genoma, and "Esis" for the plural and Latin of IESOUS.
"THE GENERATIONS OF IESOUS ".
And the word BERESHYITH O BERESHITH, Only means:
"BEGINNING".
And in every single letter according to the OTIOT chart? It describes the "GOSPEL".
"HELL".. in the Torah appears as "DARKNESS ", where the evil god called jehovah or Yahweh YHWH, dwells and was taking the souls of every human being (Ps. 88:14-18/ 2 Sam. 22:7-12).
And WHY...you should "repent"?
Because "you didn't want to hear from JESUS, when He first created you, and followed the false god(Rom. 1:18-32) from the old Testament , which blinded your mind"(Job. 8:9/ Isai. 29:10/ 2 Cor. 4:4)
Why the "jews".. do not believe in the REAL CREATOR WHICH IS JESUSCHRIST?
Jesus called that..god:
"The prince of the power of the AIR ". (Ephs. 2:2)
Because jehová or yahweh YHWH...FLY UPON THE WINGS OF THE WIND (Ps. 18:8-11).
Does God...need a ride been SPIRIT?
Do u need a yes or no?
