Parsha ‘Vaet-Chanan’ (Deuteronomy 3:23-7:11) continues Moses’ ‘Farewell Address’ and lesson with “…and I BESOUGHT” Yahuah — but he was not allowed to enter the land, and that is followed up with some of the most important commandments in all of Scripture. But the “Ten Debarim” are just part of that; Yahushua noted that what precedes it, “Shema Israel,” is even greater.

It is central to what Mark has called “Yahushua’s Razor.”

The Erev Shabbat reading is one of the most important in His Torah:

This Torah portion is so powerfully central to the understanding of why YHVH forbids idolatry in ANY form, and is called “El Kanah” – the Jealous God – three times in this context. And since it also, without question, includes THE most important commandments in Scripture (to the point where He even uses the Singular – as in THE Commandment) this is the context where
Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship outlines what he calls ‘THE Razor,’ which is the Truth so central to the ministry of the Torah Made Flesh, Yahushua, that it also serves to divide from what is probably the greatest lie in history: that ‘jesus’ somehow “did away with the Law.”

What it shows is why the distinction between the Real Messiah, Who did NOT in any way, and the fake, is so vital.

It’s not about pronunciation, or whether there was even a “J” in Hebrew for those 15 centuries. It’s far more fundamental, but is encapsulated in,


His Mama NEVER Called Him ‘jesus’!”
