  • Through His death and resurrection, Yeshua (Jesus) brought us into the New Covenant, and this introduced a seismic shift in God’s holy priesthood. And this dramatic change under the New Covenant is something that Torah-observant Christians either miss or don’t understand.
    The biblical passages we'll examine in this video are as explosive for the theology of Torahism (e.g. Hebrew Roots Movement, Torah-observant Christians) as they would have been for Judaism in the first century. The Torah continually refers to the Levitical priesthood, through whom the Law of Moses was applied to the Israelites. That priesthood drove the national and spiritual identity of Israel. Imagine how much of the Law of Moses had to change to account for this new order of priests under the New Covenant. To teach that the Law of Moses is still in effect in its entirety is to undermine the work and the sacrifice and the priesthood of Jesus.

      Jewish people whom refuse to co vert are doing so because YHWH Commanded them to stay away from prophets that engage in pagan worship, violate HIS Torah and defame His Sactified Sabbath. Thats why YAH will not deal to harshly with them because Christians engage in all of that and more blatant disrespect.

YESHUA had to go through that in order to reap the rewards Promised by The Almighty, worthy is The Lamb. None of it was given to YESHUA the one called Jesus. None if it!

    Hello Rob, I am new to this channel and find that you are a very educated, a good communicator with a gentle spirit. As a believer for almost 4 decades and as a ferocious Bible reader, I have a lot of questions regarding these topics. I will start here; regarding the ending of the Levitical Priesthood with the New Covenant, Christian Theology states it has ended forever. So my question is this, as believers in the whole of scripture what do we do with the prophecies in books such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Zechariah who foretell that the Levitical Priesthood will be back in the Millennial Reign of Christ? Do we treat all scripture on an equal footing? Are those OT prophetic books now diminished and put under the Apostolic writings like Hebrews and Revelation and much of Paul's writings? I am sure you have delt with this question before. What are your thoughts?

      Thanks, flyguymt! Glad to have you here. I'm looking forward to learning from your well-read contributions to the conversations. As to your question, end-times prophecies can be a tricky area, as I'm sure you know. All Scripture is, of course, God-breathed and inspired. And many of the OT prophecies are clarified (or at least further illuminated) by the NT authors. So I would not say that the OT eschatological prophecies are "diminished." But I think we need to be careful to interpret them in light of the NT revelations. Blessings, Rob

      You may be referring to when Abraham gave Melchisedec a tenth of the spoils from war and I will state this as my opinion and I will say that when Abraham did that it was symbolic of the mandate of the tithing of the Mosaic law because it was as if " Levi was paying tithes to Melchisedec so that Abraham could receive the blessing from Melchisedec and Melchisedec was just as the Son of man with no beginning or ending and without Mother or Father
      Hebrews 7:9-10
      9 And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
      10 For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
      But at the same time, Abraham did not tithe any personal assets, and tithing didn't become Law until God commanded Moses to mandate it to the Israelites
      Amen 🙏!

They Never miss a sabbath day so are they saved? I never keep a sabbath day and I am saved. Why is this? Because my faith has made me rightous so keeping some rituals on certain days of the week doesnt save or not save me. Staying away from certian foods doesn't save or not save me. Only faith in the messiah Jesus Christ saves me. The law does nothing but let me know I need a savior. But it truly has nothing to do with Saturday or Sunday only my moral depravity. And if anyone thinks they have to keep certain days special, or feasts or moons or animal sacrafices has missed the point and is probably not saved and doesnt know the Holy Spirit

    The New Covenant [Yirmeyahu 31: 31] does open the door for all Believers to be Priests and kings, however, in the original Hebrew Gospel of Mattityahu, Yeshu'a HaMashiach, born of both the lineage of King David and Levi, through His virgin mother Miryam, said, " Do not say I have come to do away with the Torah or Prphets, I have not come to destroy, but to uphold. Heaven and Earth will pass away before before one jot or tittle will pass from the Torah."
    True there is no longer need for burnt offerings, or mediators for Beievers to approach the throne of Yehovah, however; there are still many elements of the Torah stands. Whosoever will bear the least of these Commandments, and teach others to do also, Yehovah Tzavuot will make void.

    @adamhorstman3398 Před 2 lety

    Totally off topic but did you know that torah-observant Christians are currently divided on whether the Sabbath is actually on Saturday?!
    Many are lunar sabbatarians. These claim that the original God-given Sabbath as seen in Scripture is based on the cycle of the moon, not the "Roman" weekday and that Hillel the younger changed the Sabbath to a fixed weekly Saturday observance in the fourth century AD due to imperial pressure. Therefore the Sabbath day does not fall on the same day in our Gregorian calendar.
    Whether this is true or fallacious, (a simple Wikipedia search on Hillel 2 claims that the calendar was fixed), it does significantly contribute to overall consideration of HRE groups, the quest for epistemological certainty, the purpose of the Sabbath, God's Providence, man's confusion, etc.

    In the Letter of 1 Peter, Peter was not addressing gentile believers, but the "Exiles" - Israelite believers who were scattered in the various locations mentioned:
    "To God’s elect, exiles scattered throughout the provinces of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia..."
    It is to those specifically addressed in the letter (Israelites) that Peter attributes this statement to:
    "You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession." - 1 Peter 2:9
    These are epithets for Israel. Israel is a chosen people, a holy nation.
    Peter then finishes this affirmation with a reference to the Prophecy of Hosea:
    "Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy." - 1 Peter 2:10
    This is reminiscent of the way Hosea is instructed to rebuke Israel:
    "...for I will no longer have compassion on the house of Israel, that I should ever forgive them...Then the LORD said, “Call him Lo-Ammi (which means “not my people”) for you are not my people, and I am not your God." - Hosea 1:7-8
    Yet, in the midst of rebuke, God provides hope:
    "And it will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’ Then the people of Judah and of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint for themselves one leader, and will go up out of the land. For great will be the day of Jezreel." - Hosea 1:10-11
    Peter was intimating that Jesus was/is/will be the "leader" who will restore and gather Israel. And that through their faith, they were undoing the curse of Hosea - in the Old Testament they were abandoned without mercy, yet in the New Covenant they receive mercy and are made "sons of the living God".

      Thanks, Ian! Great comments.
      I respectfully disagree that Peter’s letter only applies to Jewish believers in Jesus. (Israel is designated as God’s chosen people in the OT, but Peter identifies his _Christian_ readers (1 Pet 1:2) as God’s chosen people, showing the continuity of God’s work from OT into NT times.) But let’s suppose, for the sake of argument, you are correct. It would not change the point made in my video, which is that the Levitical priesthood is no more. Individual believers in Jesus are now a holy priesthood able to “offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ” (1 Pet 2:5).

      @@iansmith9474 I am following your logic, Ian. However, there are a couple passages later in chapter 1 that suggest Peter is writing to Gentiles, at least in part. For example, he refers to his reader's "former ignorance" (v14) and "the futile ways inherited from your forefathers" (v18) which are both references to Gentiles, not Jews. Here are a few helpful resources:
      The NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible says, "Because the precise date of this letter is unknown and little is known about the Christians of northern Asia Minor until the early second century, the specific occasion of this letter is uncertain. If the address to the "exiles" scattered across northern Asia Minor reflects a historical situation-as opposed to expressing a metaphoric understanding of earthly life as an exile away from the believers heavenly home-then perhaps some recent migration of Christians to those provinces may have raised the need for apostolic instruction about life in their new social setting."
      The Faithlife Study Bible says, "In the Hebrew Bible the nation of Israel is designated as God's chosen or elect people (See Deut 4:37; Isa 45:4). In the NT, this term is expanded to include the Church, which consists of both Jews and Gentiles. Although Peter is the apostle to the Jews (Gal 2:7-8), the churches he writes to in Asia Minor probably had mostly Gentile (non-Jewish) members (See 1 Pet 1:14, 18, 2:9-10; 4:3-4)."
      The Bible Knowledge Commentary says, "Peter immediately, using a careful choice of words, began to comfort and encourage his readers. Christians are God's elect not by chance or human design but by God's sovereign, unconditional choice. Once only the nation of Israel could claim this title. The readers were scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, sprinkled like salt throughout five of Asia Minor's Roman province is. The letter was evidently meant to circulation among the churches in this area. "Scattered" (diasporas) had special meeting to the Jewish Christians in these churches. The diaspora referred to JEWS who were separated from their homeland. Peter adapted this word which previously described Israel to emphasize the condition of the early church."

      He was not writing to "Jews" (a designation for the southern kingdom) but to the descendants of the Northern kingdom. Their forefathers fell into idolatry, created a false religion, and as a result, God divorced them, and had them sent into perpetual exile. During the time of Jesus, they were still in exile. Evidently, many in the regions mentioned by Peter had not forgotten their ancestry.
      They inherited idolatry, and futile ways from their forefathers.
      I can see why a Christian would want to interpret the text as symbolic language, but the plain text shows no reason for it.
      Christians are taking a very nuanced and compelling situation and completely flattening it out. Imagine the descendants of the Northern tribes are residing in exile, they know they are condemned and without an inheritance. Their only hope is the redemption as spoken of by prophecy. Suddenly, they encounter Christians providing a way back to God. Then in a letter written by Peter, he makes it final by citing Hosea and regarding their faith as the fulfillment of prophecy, and the prerequisite for their return. This is exciting stuff.

      Thanks, Richard. There was a great deal of confusion in the first-century about Jesus, especially before His resurrection. At the time, various Jewish sects held different opinions about the Messiah-how he would come and what he would do. But God's ways are higher than our ways, of course, and, as creatures, we can never fully know the mind of our Creator. As the Tanakh makes clear, Yahweh reveals things to His people on an as-needed basis in His own time. Many Jews in the first century, including Yeshua's own disciples, misunderstood Him. Which is why Jesus needed to "open their eyes" to show them how the Tanakh spoke of Him (Luke 24:44-48). But when the God of Israel resurrected Yeshua from the dead, it validated His claims to be Messiah, Savior, and Son of God.

      Hi Richard. The MIdrash, while important and informative, are no authority. They are rabbinic musings, sot to speak, not Scripture. And especially the Midrash Aggadah, which are more theologically creative and story-based Midrash. As far as Hebrews, I like how Wiersbe describes it: "Melchizedek was a man (see Heb. 7:4), so he had to have had a mother and a father. But there is no record of his genealogy (“descent”) in the Old Testament; and this is significant because most great persons in the Old Testament have their ancestry identified. It was especially important that the priests be able to prove their ancestry (see Ezra 2:61-63; Neh. 7:63-65). So in Hebrews 7:3, the author uses an argument from silence, but it is a valid one."

      Hi, Richard. I'm not aware of anywhere in Scripture that Paul discusses Melchizedek. Or maybe it's your belief that Paul wrote the book of Hebrews? I don't agree with that authorship, necessarily, but even where Melchizedek is mentioned in Hebrews, it does not teach that "MELCHIZEDEK is Jesus." It says that Jesus is a high priest "after the order of" Melchizedek. I suppose some might see Melchizedek in Genesis 14 as a Christophany, which isn't an unreasonable theory, in my opinion. But it is just a theory; Scripture does not affirm it.
      More importantly, Paul does not "twist the Scriptures." The most common reason for people to come to that conclusion is because they are reading Paul's writings through a wooden, modern, literal lens, rather than through the Hebraic, midrashic approach of the NT writers. Paul uses the same literary and theological license that the rabbis and Jewish sages of his time used on the Tanakh.

    Hebrews 7:18 doesn't disannull the law. It diannulls the command of the priestly regimen. Beware the teachers of lawlessness. Obedience to the commandments of Yah is our part of the marriage covenant. Do not be deceived. Christians that disregard the commanded feasts and keeptheir own Pagan holidays and Shabbats are not the bride of our Mashiach.

    The new covenant does not come until the twelve tribes are back in the land of their fathers, and God is dwelling in the midst of his chosen people Israel. 26 Behold days are coming, says the Lord, and I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with seed of man and seed of beasts.
    27 And it shall be, as I have watched over them to uproot and to break down, to demolish and to destroy and to afflict, so will I watch over them to build and to plant, says the Lord.
    28 In those days, they shall no longer say, "Fathers have eaten unripe grapes, and the teeth of the children shall be set on edge."
    29 But each man shall die for his iniquity; whoever eats the unripe grapes- his teeth shall be set on edge.
    30 Behold, days are coming, says the Lord, and I will form a covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, a new covenant. (29) every man will die for his own sin, so Jesus died for nothing, that is if you believe the words of God .

      ​@RLSolberg Actually it began in Acts 2, but never, to this day, completed. Instead of the 70th week, came a Dispensation of Grace for the Gentiles because Israel fell in unbelief. They rejected their Messiah and their kingdom. So, salvation came to the Gentiles in a way that was never prophesied in OT Scripture.
      The New Covenant is for Israel and it doesn't come to them until after those days. After what days? After the days that God "regarded them not."
      We are still in those days. Israel is still stuck between Hosea 1:9 and Hosea 1:14-15. But soon, God will once again call out to Israel and those that answer His call and endure Tribulation till the end will be His people who were not His people. Hosea 2:23
      That's for Israel not the Body of Christ Church. They will be kings and Priests on earth in that Kingdom forever. The Body of Christ Church is eternally in the Heavens. 2 Corinthians 5:1. ...not on earth.

    Hi,
    It is true that Hebrews says that Jesus is our high priest, but is he the high priest on the earthly tabernacle or the heavenly tabernacle?
    Hebrews 8:4 even states that if Jesus was on earth, he could not be high priest. But because of his high position, he's able to gain access to the heavenly tabernacle, which is how is able to be high priest while being from the tribe of Judah.
    But that doesn't negate the Aaronic or Levitical Priesthood. Zachariah 14, which is a prophetic chapter of how the Messiah will defeat the enemies of Israel, also states that the temple will be rebuilt.
    And in that temple, the sons of Zadok, who are the descendants of Aaron, will serve on that temple. And according to the logic from Hebrews 8:4, Jesus cannot serve in that third temple on the earth. The pact that God made with the priests was tied to the earthly temple.
    Have you considered to look at the Aaronic and Levitical Priesthood as a Royal Grant?Moshe Weinfeld has great scholarly articles on royal grants that help expound on the OT.
    He is a Jewish scholar, but there are other christian scholars that discuss royal grants in the Bible as well.
    Peace and Blessings.

      Why do we need to search for something we cannot see, what HaShem gave us something we can see, to find Him with?
      Everything else is a distraction, the work of HaSatan. HaShem teaches us that it is only Him and no other besides Him, before Him, after Him. His Name is jealous and Jesit or Yeshua is not one of His names, besides a direct translation from Hebrew to English…Joshua fits the bill.

      Hey, Tick! Thank for weighing in. I hear what you're saying. But I'm actually not targeting one "denomination" of Christianity. The goal of this channel is to address _false_ teachings, which is a very biblical thing to do.
      " I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths." (2 Tim 4:1-4)
      "Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood. I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them." (Acts 20:28-30)
      "For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God and take every thought captive to obey Christ." -2 Cor 10:5
