Do Liver and Kidneys Please Yahweh?
VaYiqra or “And He Called” can be a difficult lesson to understand. It’s all about sacrifices; a topic that seems to be more suited for pagan gods and rituals, not for a God who claims to be a loving God. But here it is in Leviticus 1-6. YHWH calls to Moses and defines a sacrificial…
Assemble a House for YHVH?
The study of VaYak’hel follows the story of Israel turning their backs on YHWH and worshipping another god—the “golden calf” of Egypt called apis.

Are You Called to be a Priest?
The Torah passages describing Tabernacle proceedings for the priests are full of details. Why? I’m thinking if you were a priest performing services in the “tent of meeting,” details would be very important. Consider what YHWH said to Moses: “And they (the priestly garments) shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they enter the…
