Mishpatim – Ordinances Exodus 21:1-24:18
Parasha Mishpatim is an illustration of YHVH's view that there is not two-parts to a man nor separation between a person's secular life and his religious life. Just as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are the three entities of one (echad) God, so is man, one man. And yet today, the majority of society has been deceived into believing that they can be a different person and act one way in business and another on Shabbat (or Sunday, if that is still your belief system). YHVH says - not so.
Yithro - Jethro Exodus 18:1-20:26
The past several weeks the book of Exodus revealed YHVH’s plan of redemption. As we study this parashot we begin to transition from YHVH’s deliverance to what was expected of the people in becoming the betrothed of a Holy God. It is a loud and clear message for today's believers who are bought by the blood of the lamb, Yeshua.
Beshalach - When he let go
Exodus 13:17-17:16
Let us not let the familiarity of this parasha dull our perception of the significance of these scriptures to our lives. We must remember that this is all part of the picture for God’s salvation plan and is repeatedly reminding us of God’s presence and provision. We, who live in the "last days" need to grab hold of these truths to arise and shine in the midst of the prophesied difficulties ahead.
Bo – Go Exodus 10:1 – 13:16
In this week’s parashah we read about the last three plagues upon Egypt – locusts, darkness and death of Egypt’s firstborn. While the awesomeness of YHVH’s miracles and process of deliverance should be ever present in our being, we again must focus what the Ruach is telling those of us who live in these end times.
