Torah Portion--Tetzaveh/You Shall Command, Exodus 27:30-30:10; 1 Samuel 15:2-34; Romans 9-12

Exodus 27:30-30:10; 1 Samuel 15:2-34; Romans 9-12


We are walking in today:  Torah Portion--Tetzaveh/You Shall Command, Exodus 27:30-30:10; 1 Samuel 15:2-34; Romans 9-12

Witness holy spirit throughout the Bible:  H6944 qodesh apartness, holiness, sacredness, separateness, holiness of Yahweh, of places, of things, set-apartness, separateness
H7307 ruwach wind, breath, mind, spirit, breath, wind, spirit (as seat of emotion), desire
Isaiah 63:10-11; Psalm 51:11; Luke 11:13; Ephesians 1:13, 4:30; 1 Thessalonians 4:8

This portion goes over the importance of the menorah.  The 7 stick candelabra that was in the inner court which was to have the oil in it consistently that the lights therein would never go out.  As we have studied the tabernacle, the outer court, inner court and the holy of holies we notice that there is a lot to detail and direction given.  How could we think that we could do anything and it would be accepted by Yahweh?  He did not want us to guess or try to figure it out.  We would certainly miss it, haven't we?  Can we find where our practices line up with His instructions fully?  Yet we have so many songs and phrases about light.   Walk in the light, a song that many of us know.  When we get understanding the light comes on and many other sayings.  Could this be our spirit-man telling us about the Torah, the light unto our path and lamp unto our feet?  That we are to return to that which gives light, that also gives us life?  As we read this weeks portion let us consider how much we have strayed from His instruction and return to the beginning, where it all began.  To hear this teaching again click here.
