Program #33 - Yeshua and Torah Observance part4

We left the previous discussion in a cliff hanger. We solve the “cliff-hanger” by using the Hebrew and Greek translations of the text to reveal the idea of what the English word “fulfilled” means.

I present my literal translation of this passage as a means for clarifying the dilemma of the double use of the English word “fulfilled.”

We then delve into the phrase “Custom of the Feast” in relation to Torah observance. We also discuss the Hebrew word “mishpat” judgments. We look at this verse from a Hebrew translation.

Program #8 - The Aleph and the Tav

I discuss the Hebrew concept of Alef-Tav. This word goes un-translated in the English version of the text. The alef and tav are the beginning and ending letters of the Hebrew alef-bet. These letters correspond to the Greek letters Alpha and Omega (Rev 1:8). What does the Alef-Tav of Genesis 1:1 mean?
