Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Isaiah 51:4: “I will make my judgment to rest for a light of the people.” Yehudah ha-Levi, a medieval Jewish poet, displayed his emotion in a little rhyme: “ein rega beli nega.” “There is no rest without a wound in it.” The word rest (rega’) is a very curious word
Good Evening Yamon Ki Yesepar; Isaiah 52:7: “How lovely upon the mountain are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that announces peace and brings good news, announces salvation saying to Zion your God reigns.” Why feet? Why not just the person who brings the news? If you are going to mention a specific
Good Evening Yamon Ki Yesepar; Genesis 2:24: “Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh.” Gamaliel, the great Jewish teacher that the Apostle Paul studied under was addressed by an emperor with the comment, “Your God is a thief, because he caused
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Genesis 49:14-15 “Isachar is a strong donkey couching down between two burdens; And he saw that rest was good, and the land that it was pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to bear, and become a servant unto tribute.” What a strange blessing to give to this tribe.

Good Evening Yamon Ki Yesepar; II Samuel 6:14:”And David danced before the Lord with all his might.” So what was this dance. Was it jumping around in frenzy?

WORD STUDY – SHELTER – SAGAV Psalms 9:9 “The Lord will also be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.” Jacques Lowe was the personal photographer President Kennedy. He had over 40,000 photographs of Kennedy and his immediate family in his collection. Only 400 were ever published. Jacques Lowe was a
Good Evening Yamon Ki Yesepar; (If anyone noticed, there was no devotional last night. My computer was having a pajama party at the Corporate Office IT department) Lamentations 3:21-22: “This I recall to my mind, there have I hope. It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.”
Good Evening Yamon Ki Yesepar; Exodus 11:7: “But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that you may know how that the Lord doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.” Do you know that among orthodox Jews today they will feed their
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Psalms 138:7: “Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.” I was a little surprised when I read this verse in the Hebrew. I fully expected to
Good Morning Yamon Ki Yesepar; Psalm 57:9: “When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.” It is clear both in English and Hebrew that David’s enemies were not going to turn back until he “cried” unto the Lord. He says he “knows” this. This
