Dr Hollisa Alewine – Footsteps of Messiah Part 13 – KI TISA (The Fall of the House of Ahab …and the Shabbat Elevator)
The expressions clarify the verses in the Song of Songs concerning the Vineyard Israel’s (Is 5:7) need to mature in the fruits of repentance and its identity as the ripe figs of Passover repentance.There is a lack of people of righteousness among the Vineyard and Fig Tree Israel. Knowing that the “fruits” are works reflecting repentance, this is dire. The foxes have ruined the fruits of repentance, so they did not ripen. The Artscroll commentary is more specific, saying that there is a lack of teachers who will teach integrity. (The Prophets: The Twelve Prophets to Micah 7:1)
The preservation of the fig trees and vineyard is usually through watchmen [and women!] who build secure fences and stand guard on the walls for predators such as foxes. Ezekiel explains the problem: “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.” (Eze 22:30)
Lack of care for the physical land explains the lack of care for the spiritual land’s destruction, its Vineyard.

Torah Teachers’ Round Table – Tanakh Edition – Jeremiah chapter 34 into 35
The teachers continue the study of the prophet YermeYahu, or Jeremiah, from chapter 34 into chapter 35, where the focus shifts to a bit of history, in the form of the 'Rechabites'. And, arguably, whether things that got their fathers in trouble long past have been...
Now Is The Time w/Rabbi Steve Berkson | Discovering Your Identity | Part 1
• What does the Creator actually have to say in His Word about our “Identity Issues”? • Are we “Gentile Believers” or something else? • Who and what is Israel and what does it have to do with our identity? • What was the purpose of Yeshua’s ministry? What is the “Good...
Dr Hollisa Alewine – Footsteps of Messiah Part 12 (Defining The Little Foxes)
This week we continue from the teaching on “The Fox in The Family” and uncover who the little foxes are as we correlate and discover parallels and similarities in the stories of Ahab and Jezebel with their offspring together with Herod and Herodius and their offspring. In this study we then finally recognize how we are all caught up in the exact same story today.
Mark Call – Parsha “Ki Tisa” teaching from Shabbat Shalom Mesa
Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa Fellowship for a two-part look at parsha Ki Tisa (Exodus 30:11 through chapter 34) and one of the most"drama-filled" stories in the entire Book. Not to mention 'fateful,' and certainly 'prophetic.' On Erev Shabbat, Mark summarizes...

As the teachers continue the study of the prophet YermeYahu, or Jeremiah, into chapter 33, and then 34, the focus is again on elements of the 'greater exodus' (yet to come, seems to be the concensus) and to which groups -- two of them, it turns out: the house of...

Mark Call – Parsha “Tetzaveh” teaching from Shabbat Shalom Mesa
Parsha (Tetzaveh, Exodus 27:20 - 30:10) is yet another departure from not just the main 'storyline' of Exodus, but - MAYBE - even what we might have thought was a theme of Scripture: appearances can be deceptive, what we hear is more important than what we see, or...

The teachers complete the study of the Book of the Prophet YermeYahu (Jeremiah) chapter 32. In which the question is answered: "Why buy a field if you're just going into exile, anyway?"
