The Law and Gentiles

Leviticus 24:1-23

December 8, 2022 • Arthur Bailey • Leviticus 24

Is the Law only for the Jews? Are the Gentiles required to keep the Law? Who would be classified as a Gentile according to the Torah? Words, terminology, and modern phrases used by many in the Messianic community have been handed down to us without much Biblical research to validate the origin of the terms we use.

In this portion of Leviticus, we will address these and other related questions that will bring much-needed clarity to Jews, Christians, and Messianic Believers who follow the Jewish Messiah today.

In preparation for the study of The Law and Gentiles, please read Leviticus 24:1-23.

Vows, Values and Redemption

January 19, 2023 • Arthur Bailey • Leviticus 27

Vows were not commanded by the Law of YeHoVaH, but were made by individuals who wanted to do something over and beyond what was required by YeHoVaH in exchange for something. Typically, vows were made to dedicate or devote someone or something of value to the service of YeHoVaH.   In this final chapter of Leviticus, YeHoVaH gives Instructions for the vow being made, the value of the person or the thing that is vowed, and the process for redeeming that which had been vowed.   In preparation for the study of Vows, Values and Redemption, please read Leviticus 27:1-34.

The Law of YeHoVaH is inclusive of blessings and curses, life and death. Those who obey YeHoVaH’s Law experience the life of YeHoVaH and the benefits, blessings, and privileges thereof. Disobeying the Law of YeHoVaH produces death and the curses associated with disobedience.   In the second portion of Leviticus 26, YeHoVaH instructs Moses to warn the Children of Israel, and those who joined themselves to the Commonwealth of Israel, of what they had to look forward to if they rejected His Law or failed to carry out all His Commands and violated His Covenant.   In preparation for the study, Curses for Disobeying the Law Pt 2, please read Leviticus 26:14-46.
