Midrashim - with Dr. Walter Oakley

Program #38 - Call No Man Father Pt. 5
I discuss the concept of a real (biblical) father. We look at the father as a teacher discussing Shem, Kayin (Cain) and Adam.
I then finish the idea of whether the text is to be interpreted literally. I conclude with Rabbinic Hermeneutics determining that there are more to text than just “literal” and “spiritual” interpretations of the text.
Roots of Faith 29 Sep 2008 | : ARBA4, ROF Sunday Shul, Roots of Faith
This week, Ross covers the subject of Yom Teruah. Beginning with a sermon that dates to approximately 458 B.C.E., Ross illustrates the Biblical significance of the 1st day of the 7th month.
Weaving the upcoming Torah and Prophet reading for Sabbath Shuvah (The Sabbath of Repentance) with the ancient sermon, Ross points out a path for repentance found within the Torah.
This timely message should be “heard” and proclaimed as we enter into what Josephus calls the “Sacred Month”.
Look for the new moon and realize that once it is spotted, we are in the “Day of the Awakening Blast.”

I discuss the idea of “Rav” as the master teacher looking at the idea of a “GREAT” Teacher. I bring to the discussion the ideas presented in Yaakov (James) 3:1 and then regress to a passage discussed before in Mattiyahu (Matthew) 5:17-19 and the way it relates to and illuminates our text.
I conclude with the discussion on whether Yeshua meant this text to be taken laterally.

In this week’s class, Ross begins to take a closer look at the method of teaching used by Yeshua. Ross begins to teach on the parable. 1/3 of the recorded words of Yeshua in the canonical gospels are in the form of parables. It becomes important the for us to explore some of these teachings according to their original Hebraic perspective. Join Ross and the Roots of Faith congregation as we begin to study the parables.
