Torah Portion: Bechukotai

Description

This is Bill’s commentary) on the torah portion, Bechukotai or, “in my statutes.” In this portion, the Scripture describes, in general terms, the blessings that come with obedience. However the text describes, in horrid detail, the judgments that befall those of the covenant who choose to walk in disobedience. Israel is warned that should they opt to continue in disobedience, a series of five groups of seven punishments, each worse than the previous one, would come upon them. Yet, for all this, we see that the God of Israel will still keep His word to the patriarchs and redeem their descendants, ultimately, through the Messiah Y’shua. (Approximately 70 minutes).
