B'reisheet (In the beginning)
1) Genesis 1:1-6:8
Dear Friend,
Below, I explain the three themes of this publication. Specifically, all posts will be:
Relationally-Driven,
Scripture-Centric, and/or
Disability-Focused
This post will focus on this second theme:
Scripture-Centric: I seek to live under the Word of God and help others grow in biblical literacy with roots in the Torah and a wholehearted surrender to the Messiah.
This week we turn the page and begin again a year-long journey through the Scriptures. With a “Tanachian lens” we focus on seeing what the Apostles saw through a Hebraic understanding.
Toward this end, below is what will be a weekly post that will point you to a free online devotional commentary I have written to help promote Scripture for ALL, specifically the Parashah Project. (If you are unfamiliar with this project, go to the homepage (linked above) and watch the brief video explanation. You can also explore the various “About” pages on the Parashah Project website that provide additional overview.)
Below you can access Scriptural scaffolding to help orient you to the first portion of the traditional Jewish lectionary reading cycle along with the additional reading from the Apostolic writings.
Let’s begin…click on the image below.
Readings for the Week:
