We'll be using as a guide for this study of the Epistle to the Galatians an in-depth commentary by Tim Hegg, president and instructor at TorahResource Institute. This work "shows that Paul was not speaking against the Torah but upholding it as God’s eternal revelation to His people. Tim Hegg approaches the book with the starting point that Paul is preaching and teaching Torah observance for believers in Yeshua the Messiah."

This year, Chanukah runs from sunset Dec. 25 to sunset Jan. 2, 2025. We'll be kicking it off with a celebration the fourth night, just after Shabbat.

This week’s Torah reading
- Readings: April 12, 2025Genesis 27:1-29 highlights Jacob’s deception in securing Isaac’s blessing, emphasizing God’s sovereignty in fulfilling His promises despite human actions. In the parallel reading Isaiah 46:3-11, the focus is on God’s unchanging nature and His control over history, assuring believers of His plans. Another parallel, Hebrews 11:17-22, underscores the faith of the patriarchs, particularly Abraham’s trust in God’s promises, even when tested. Together, these passages illustrate God’s faithfulness and the importance of trusting His divine plan.
