TORAH

Shemot Chapter 1
1 Now these are the names of the sons of Yisra'el, who came into Mitzrayim with Ya'akov; every man came with his household: 2 Re'uvein, Shimon, Levi, and Yehudah; 3 Yisakhar, Zevulun, and Binyamin; 4 Dan and Naftali, Gad and Asher. 5 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Ya'akov were seventy souls; and Yosef was in Mitzrayim already. 6 And Yosef died, and all his brethren, and all that generation. 7 And B'nei Yisra'el were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.
8 Now there arose a new king over Mitzrayim, who knew not Yosef. 9 And he said unto his people, "Behold, the people of B'nei Yisra'el are too many and too mighty for us; 10 come, let us deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it come to pass that, when there befalls us any war, they also join themselves unto our enemies and fight against us, and get them up out of the land." 11 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Paroh store-cities, Pit'om and Ra'amses. 12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread abroad. And they were adread because of B'nei Yisra'el. 13 And the Mitzrim made B'nei Yisra'el to serve with rigor. 14 And they made their lives bitter with hard service, in mortar and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field; in all their service, wherein they made them serve with rigor. 15 And the king of Mitzrayim spoke to the Ivriyot midwives, of whom the name of the one was Shifrah, and the name of the other Pu'ah; 16 and he said, "When you do the office of a midwife to the Ivriyot women, you shall look upon the birthstool: if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live." 17 But the midwives feared Elohim, and did not as the king of Mitzrayim commanded them, but saved the men-children alive. 18 And the king of Mitzrayim called for the midwives, and said unto them, "Why have you done this thing, and have saved the men-children alive?" 19 And the midwives said unto Paroh, "Because the Ivriyot women are not as the Mitzriyot women; for they are lively, and are delivered before the midwife comes unto them." 20 And Elohim dealt well with the midwives; and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty. 21 And it came to pass, because the midwives feared Elohim, that He made them houses. 22 And Paroh charged all his people, saying, "Every son that is born you shall cast into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive."

Shemot Chapter 2
1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took as a wife a daughter of Levi. 2 And the woman conceived, and bore a son; and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three khadashim. 3 And when she could no longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch; and she put the child therein, and laid it in the flags by the river’s brink. 4 And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him. 5 And the daughter of Paroh came down to bathe in the river; and her maidens walked along by the river-side; and she saw the ark among the flags, and sent her handmaid to fetch it. 6 And she opened it, and saw it, even the child; and behold a boy that wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, "This is one of the Ivrim’s children." 7 Then said his sister to Paroh’s daughter, "Shall I go and call you a nurse of the Ivriyot women, that she may nurse the child for you?" 8 And Paroh’s daughter said to her, "Go." And the maiden went and called the child’s mother. 9 And Paroh’s daughter said unto her, "Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give you your wages." And the woman took the child, and nursed it. 10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Paroh’s daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moshe, and said, "Because I drew him out of the water."
11 And it came to pass in those days, when Moshe was grown up, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens; and he saw a Mitzri smiting an Ivri, one of his brethren. 12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he smote the Mitzri, and hid him in the sand. 13 And he went out the second day, and, behold, two men of the Ivrim were striving together; and he said to him that did the wrong, "Why do you smite your fellow?" 14 And he said, "Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? Do you think to kill me, as you did kill the Mitzri?" And Moshe feared, and said, "Surely the thing is known." 15 Now when Paroh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moshe. But Moshe fled from the face of Paroh, and dwelt in the land of Midyan; and he sat down by a well.
16 Now the priest of Midyan had seven daughters; and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock. 17 And the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moshe stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. 18 And when they came to Re'u'El their father, he said, "How is it that you are come so soon today?" 19 And they said, "A Mitzri delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock." 20 And he said unto his daughters, "And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread." 21 And Moshe was content to dwell with the man; and he gave Moshe Tziporah his daughter. 22 And she bore a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said, "I have been a stranger in a strange land."
23 And it came to pass in the course of those many days that the king of Mitzrayim died; and B'nei Yisra'el sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto Elohim by reason of the bondage. 24 And Elohim heard their groaning, and Elohim remembered His Brit with Avraham, with Yitz'khak, and with Ya'akov. 25 And Elohim saw B'nei Yisra'el, and Elohim took cognizance of them.

HAFTARAH

Yesha-Yahu Chapter 27
6 In days to come shall Ya'akov take root, Yisra'el shall blossom and bud; and the face of the world shall be filled with fruitage."
7 "Has He smitten him as He smote those that smote Him? Or is He slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by Him? 8 In full measure, when You send her away, You contend with her; He has removed her with His rough blast in the day of the east wind. 9 Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Ya'akov be expiated, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: when He makes all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more. 10 For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation abandoned and forsaken, like the wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof. 11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding; therefore He that made them will not have compassion upon them, and He that formed them will not be gracious unto them."
12 "And it shall come to pass in that day, that יהוה will knock off [His fruit] from the flood of the River unto the Brook of Mitzrayim, and you shall be gathered one by one, O B'nei Yisra'el."
13 "And it shall come to pass in that day, that The Great Shofar shall blast; and they shall come that were lost in the land of Ashur, and they that were dispersed in the land of Mitzrayim; and they shall worship יהוה in Har HaKodesh at Yerushalayim."

Yesha-Yahu Chapter 28
1 "Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Efrayim, and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley of them that are smitten down with wine! 2 Behold, Adonai has a mighty and strong one, as a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, as a storm of mighty waters overflowing, that casts down to the earth with violence. 3 The crown of pride of the drunkards of Efrayim shall be trodden under foot; 4 and the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be as the first-ripe fig before the summer, which when one looks upon it, while it is yet in his hand he eats it up. 5 In that day shall יהוה Tzeva'ot be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty unto the residue of His people; 6 and for a spirit of judgment to him that sits in judgment, and for strength to them that turn back the battle at the gate. 7 But these also reel through wine, and stagger through strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel through strong drink, they are confused because of wine, they stagger because of strong drink; they reel in vision, they totter in judgment. 8 For all tables are full of filthy vomit, and no place is clean."
9 "Whom shall one teach knowledge? And whom shall one make to understand the message? Them that are weaned from the milk, them that are drawn from the breasts? 10 For it is precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little. 11 For with stammering lips and with a strange tongue shall it be spoken to this people, 12 to whom it was said, 'This is the rest, give rest to the weary; and this is the refreshing'; yet they would not hear. 13 And so D'var יהוה is unto them precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken."
14 "Therefore hear D'var יהוה , you scoffers, the ballad-mongers of this people which is in Yerushalayim. 15 Because you have said, 'We have made a covenant with Mavet, and with She'ol are we at agreement; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood have we hid ourselves'."
16 "Therefore thus says Adonai יהוה , 'Behold, I lay in Tzion, for a foundation, a stone; a tried stone, a costly cornerstone of sure foundation; he that trusts shall not be ashamed. 17 And I will make justice the line, and tzedaka the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place. 18 And your covenant with Mavet shall be disannulled, and your agreement with She'ol shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then you shall be trodden down by it, 19 as often as it passes through, it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night; and it shall be sheer terror to understand the message. 20 For the bed is too short for a man to stretch himself, and the covering too narrow when he gathers himself up. 21 For יהוה will rise up as in Har Peratzim, He will be wroth as in the valley of Givon; that He may do His work, strange is His work, and bring to pass His act, strange is His act. 22 Now, therefore, do not be scoffers, lest your bands are made strong; for an extermination wholly determined have I heard from Adonai יהוה Tzeva'ot, upon the whole land.'"
23 "Give ear, and hear my voice; attend, and hear my speech. 24 Is the plowman never done with plowing to sow, with the opening and harrowing of his ground? 25 When he has made plain the face thereof, does he not cast abroad the black cummin, and scatter the cummin, and put in the wheat in rows, and the barley in the appointed place, and the spelt in the border thereof? 26 For He does instruct him aright; his Elohim does teach him. 27 For the black cummin is not threshed with a threshing-sledge, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the black cummin is beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod. 28 Is bread grain crushed? Nay, he will not for always be threshing it; and though the roller of his wagon and its sharp edges move noisily, he does not crush it. 29 This also comes forth from יהוה Tzeva'ot. Wonderful is His counsel, and great His wisdom."

Yesha-Yahu Chapter 29
1 "Ah, Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add year to year, let the khagim come round! 2 Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God. 3 And I will encamp against you round about, and will lay siege against you with a mound, and I will raise siege works against you. 4 And brought down, you shall speak out of the ground, and your speech shall be low out of the dust; and your voice shall be as of a ghost out of the ground, and your speech shall chirp out of the dust. 5 But the multitude of your foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones as chaff that passes away; yes, it shall be at an instant suddenly."
6 "There shall be a visitation from יהוה Tzeva'ot, with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire. 7 And the multitude of all the nations that war against Ariel, even all that war against her, and the bulwarks about her, and they that distress her, shall be as a dream, a vision of the night. 8 And it shall be as when a hungry man dreams, and, behold, he eats, but he awakes, and his soul is empty; or as when a thirsty man dreams, and, behold, he drinks, but he awakes, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul has appetite."
"So shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against Har Tzion."
9 "Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind, you that are drunk, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink! 10 For יהוה has poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, has He covered. 11 And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, 'Read this, I ask you'; and he says, 'I cannot, for it is sealed'; 12 and the writing is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, 'Read this, I ask you'; and he says, 'I am not learned.' 13 And Adonai said, 'Forasmuch as this people draws near, and with their mouth and with their lips do honor Me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear of Me is a commandment of men learned by rote; 14 therefore, behold, I will again do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the prudence of their prudent men shall be hidden. 15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from יהוה , and their works are in the dark, and they say, 'Who sees us, and who knows us?' 16 O your perversity! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay, that the thing made should say of him that made it, 'He made me not'; or the thing framed should say of him that framed it, 'He has no understanding?' 17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Levanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest? 18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of a book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness. 19 The humble also shall increase their joy in יהוה , and the neediest among men shall exult in the Kadosh One of Yisra'el. 20 For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner ceases, and all they that watch for iniquity are cut off; 21 that make a man an offender by words, and lay a snare for him that reproves in the gate, and turn aside a tzadik with a thing of nought."
22 "Therefore, thus says יהוה , who redeemed Avraham, concerning Beit Ya'akov, 'Ya'akov shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale. 23 When he sees his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they consecrate My Name; yes, they shall consecrated the Kadosh Ya'akov, and shall stand in awe of Elohei Yisra'el.

Luka Chapter 5
17 It came to pass on one of the days when Yeshua was teaching that the P’rushim and the teachers of the Torah were sitting, who had come from every town of the Galil and Y’hudah and Yerushalayim. And the power of Elohim was present to heal them. 18 And some men brought a paralytic on a quilt; and they wanted to go in and lay him before Him. 19 And when they found they were not able to carry him in because of the multitude, they went up on the roof and lowered him down on his quilt from the ceiling into the midst before Yeshua. 20 When Yeshua saw their Emunah, He said to the paralytic, “Man, your sins are forgiven.” 21 And the Sofrim and the P’rushim began to reason, saying, “Who is this man who talks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins except Elohim only?” 22 But Yeshua knew their thoughts and answered, saying to them, “What do you reason in your heart? 23 Which is easier to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,' or just to say, ‘Arise and walk?' 24 But that you may know that Ben HaAdam has authority on earth to forgive sins,” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, arise, take up your quilt and go to your home.” 25 And immediately he rose up before their eyes and took his quilt and went to his house, praising Elohim. 26 And every man was seized with amazement, and they praised Elohim and were filled with fear, saying, “Today we have seen wonders.”
27 After these things, Yeshua went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the custom house; and he said to him, “Follow me.” 28 So he left everything and rose up and went after Him. 29 And Levi gave him a great reception in his house; and there was a large gathering of tax officers and others who were guests with them. 30 And the Sofrim and the P’rushim murmured and said to His Talmidim, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” 31 And Yeshua answered and said to them, “A physician is not needed for those who are well, but for those who are seriously sick. 32 I have not come to call the tzadikim, but sinners to repentance.” 33 They said to Him, “Why do the Talmidim of Yokhanan always fast and pray, and also those of the P’rushim; but yours eat and drink?” 34 He said to them, “You cannot make the sons of the wedding feast fast so long as the bridegroom is with them. 35 But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken from them; then they will fast in those days.” 36 And He told them a mashal, “No man cuts a piece of cloth from a new garment and puts it on a worn-out garment, so that the new tears not away, and the hole in the worn out is made worse. 37 No man pours new wine into worn-out skins; else the new wine will rend the skins, and the wine will run out and the skins will be ruined. 38 But they pour new wine into new skins, and both are well preserved. 39 And no man drinks old wine and immediately wants new wine; for he says, ‘The old is delicious.'”

Yokhanan Chapter 17
1 Yeshua spoke these things, and then He lifted up His eyes to Heaven and said, “O Avi, the hour has come; glorify Your Son, so that Your Son may glorify You, 2 since You have given Him power over all flesh, so that to all whom You have given Him, He may give life eternal. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know You, that You are the only true Elohim, even the one who sent Yeshua HaMashi'akh. 4 I have already glorified You on the earth; for the work which You have given to me to do, I have finished. 5 So now, O Avi, glorify me with You, with the same glory which I had with You before the world was made.”
6 “I have made Your Name known to the men whom You gave me out of the world; they were Yours and You gave them to me; and they have kept Your Davar. 7 Now they know that whatever You have given me is from You. 8 For the words which You gave me I gave to them; and they accepted them, and have known truly that I came forth from You, and they have believed that You have sent me. 9 What I request is for them; I make no request for the world, but for those whom You have given to me, because they are Yours. 10 And everything which is mine is Yours, and what is Yours is mine, and I am glorified by them.”
11 “Hereafter I am not in the world, but these are in the world; and I am coming to You. O Av Kadosh, protect them in Your Name, which You have given me, that they may be one, even as we are. 12 While I was with them in the world, I protected them in Your Name; those whom you gave me I protected, and not one of them is lost, except the son of perdition, that the scripture might be fulfilled. 13 Now I am coming to You, and these things I speak while I am in the world, that my joy may be complete in them. 14 I have given them Your Davar; and the world hated them, because they were not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 15 What I request is not that You should take them out of the world, but that You should protect them from evil. 16 For they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.”
17 “O Abba, consecrate them in Your truth, because Your Davar is truth. 18 Just as You did send me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. 19 And for their sakes, I am setting myself apart, so that they also may be consecrated in the truth.”
20 “I am not making request for these alone, but also for the sake of those who trust in me through their word. 21 So that they all may be one; just as You, Avi, are in me, and I am in You, that they also may be one in us; so that the world may believe that You did send me. 22 And the glory which You gave me, I gave to them; so that they may be one just as we are one. 23 I in them and You in me, that they may become perfected in one; so that the world may know that You did send me, and that You did love them just as You loved me.”
24 “O Abba, I desire that those whom You have given me may also be with me where I am, so that they may see my glory which You have given me; for You have loved me before the foundation of the world. 25 O Avi HaTzadik, the world did not know You, but I have known You; and these have known that You have sent me. 26 And I have made Your Name known to them, and I am still making it known, so that the love with which You have loved me may be among them, and I may be in them.”
