Signs and Wonders in the Midst of Catastrophe !!!
http://conpats.blogspot.com/
Welcome to Toldot (Generations), this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion).
We know you will be blessed as you follow along with us in this
portion of Torah that will be read in synagogues around the world
during the Shabbat (Saturday) service. Enjoy !
In our last Parasha (Torah portion), Yitzchak (Isaac), the son of Sarah and Abraham, carried on the legacy of his parents’ faith and obedience to Adonai. After his mother died, Abraham sent his servant to bring home a wife for Yitzchak from among Abraham’s kinsmen.
At the well where the women of the town would soon appear, the servant prayed for God’s help in locating the perfect wife for Yitzchak. Just then, Rivkah (Rebecca) arrived and provided water for him and his camels. Yitzchak was 40 when he married her.
In this week’s Parasha, we discover that Rivkah is barren; in fact, according to Jewish tradition, she was born without a womb. She is one of seven women in the Torah who have difficulty conceiving but finally come to bear children by the grace of God, in this case, in answer to her husband’s prayer.

Weekly Torah Portion: Toldot, with Chodesh Kislev Insights
The struggle between Yaakov and Esav, which began whilst still in the womb, is an eternal struggle between two nations, between goodness and evil, between light and darkness, between a nation that is open to G-d's truth and lives by and teaches that truth, and a nation willing to stoop to whatever subterranean level necessary to deny that truth and prevent its recognition in this world. The festival of Chanukah, which occurs later in this new month of Kislev, celebrates an essential victory of good over evil in this generational struggle. Even within our own selves this battle is fought, and material temptations constantly arise, attempting to deter us from assuming our responsibility as the children of G-d.

Obama Now “Highly Unlikely” to Push UN Israel Peace Deal
by Abra Forman
President Barack Obama has “nearly ruled out” any lame-duck efforts to push a negotiation framework on Israel through the United Nations (UN), and US officials say this is largely due to Donald Trump’s unexpected victory. As early as last March, Obama was known to be considering a last-ditch bid for Middle East peace through the UN. Before the presidential election, Obama had ordered up an “options menu” for proceeding with an effort to restart peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians through the UN during his last months in office. However, pursuing the type of peace plan Obama favored was only possible under the assumption that Democrat Hillary Clinton would succeed him, the Associated Press reported. [...]

THERE IS NO DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION
THE U.S. GOVERNMENT’S PROOF THAT C.A.I.R. IS HAMAS
by Center for Security Policy
(Washington, D.C.): Since its founding in 1993, the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) has presented itself publicly as a benign Muslim American “civil rights organization.” From that time to this, however, the United States government has known that CAIR actually is an entity founded by the Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestinian franchise: Hamas, a group officially designated since 1994 as a terrorist organization. Evidence of CAIR’s true character as a U.S.-based instrument for political warfare and fundraising for Hamas – and the federal government’s certain knowledge of the truth – did not come to light until the largest terrorism financing trial in the nation’s history: the 2007-2008 Holy Land Foundation prosecution.

And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Jacob said, Swear to me
this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles;
and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright. Genesis 25:32-34 KJV
Shabbat Shalom - Parasha Toldot (Generations) - Power of the Father's Blessing !!!
The Hebrew text of the Torah
Shabbat
Shalom
Welcome to Toldot
(Generations), this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion).
This is the portion of Scripture that will be read in
synagogues around the world during the Shabbat (Saturday)
service. Please read along with us; we know you will be
blessed!
TOLDOT (Generations)
Genesis 25:19–28:9; Malachi 1:1–2:7; Romans 9:6–29
“And these are the generations
[toldot] of Yitzchak [Isaac], Avraham’s [Abraham] son: Avraham begat Yitzchak.” (Genesis
25:19)
In our last Parasha (Torah portion), Yitzchak (Isaac), the
son of Sarah and Abraham, carried on the legacy of his
parents’ faith and obedience to Adonai. After his
mother died, Abraham sent his servant to bring home a wife for
Yitzchak from among Abraham’s kinsmen.
At the well where the women of the town would soon appear,
the servant prayed for God’s help in locating the perfect wife
for Yitzchak. Just then, Rivkah (Rebecca) arrived and
provided water for him and his camels. Yitzchak was 40 when
he married her.
Reading the Torah at the Bimah in the synagogue
Prayer Brings
Blessings
“Isaac prayed to the LORD on
behalf of his wife, because she was childless. The LORD
answered his prayer [atar],
and his wife Rebekah became pregnant." (Genesis 25:21)
In this week’s Parasha, we discover that Rivkah is barren;
in fact, according to Jewish tradition, she was born without a
womb. She is one of seven women in the Torah who have
difficulty conceiving but finally come to bear children by
the grace of God, in this case, in answer to her
husband’s prayer.
It is traditionally believed that he prayed for 19 years.
Moreover, it is also believed that he prayed in unity with
Rivkah.
What a lesson for us
today! Just because we pray once and do not receive an
answer does not mean we should stop praying! God wants us
to bring our requests to Him in the unity of faith.
The Hebrew expression used in Genesis 25:21 for prayer (atar עָתַר),
which can also mean to dig,
is related to the Hebrew word for pitchfork (eter). The Talmud
(Jewish Oral Law) explains the connection:
“As a pitchfork turns the sheaves of grain from one
position to another, so does the prayer of the righteous turn
the dispensations of the Holy One, blessed be He, from the
attribute of anger to the attribute of mercy.”
Yitzchak’s prayer penetrated the foundation of heaven, and
just as grain is turned over with a pitchfork, so too was
God’s judgment of barrenness upon Rivkah “turned over” and
reversed by God’s mercy because of prayer.
A Jewish man prays at the Western (Wailing) Wall.
Of course, the Bible makes it clear that we are to be
fruitful and multiply; however, though seed is sown, it
is God who opens the womb.
“Behold, children are a
heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children
of one’s youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of
them; they shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with their
enemies in the gate.” (Psalm 127:3–5)
Sarah, Abraham’s wife, came up with her own solution for
her barrenness — she suggested a surrogate mother — Hagar. In
her own efforts, she received Ishmael. Hannah, another barren
woman, went to the Temple and cried out to the Lord for a
child and she received the prophet Samuel.
Rikvah did neither. Instead, she turned to her husband who was
her spiritual covering to entreat the Lord on her behalf,
and God answered Isaac’s prayers for the miraculous gift of
new life. Rivkah found herself pregnant with not just one
child — but twins — a double portion!
Birthright Brings
Blessings
“And the boys grew; and Esau
was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a
quiet man, dwelling in tents.” (Genesis 25:27)
The twin boys grew up with distinctive character traits,
which are reflected in their names.
Yaacov (Jacob’s Hebrew name) is related to the word eikev and
means the heel of the foot.
He was so named because he grabbed his brother’s heel at
birth.
This shows Jacob’s tenacity to win the birthright
and carry forward the spiritual blessings that God promised
to his father Abraham.
Esau, however, was named Esav, from the Semitic root, seir, meaning
thick-haired. He was also
nicknamed Adom,
the Hebrew word for red,
since he was born “red and hairy.” Adom is also related to adamah (land)
and dam (blood),
which conveys Esau’s love of living off the land, hunting, and
thirst for blood.
The Mess of Pottage, by James Tissot
While Jacob had a quiet and seemingly spiritual-minded
nature, Esau had a carnal one, as shown in the way he so easily trades
something of eternal spiritual value (his birthright) for
something that satisfies his physical hunger (a bowl of
lentils). To him, they were equal.
“'Look, I am about to die [of
hunger],’ Esau said. ‘What good is the birthright to me?’” (Genesis
25:32)
Birthrights come with responsibilities as well as
blessings.
Even though Jacob was not the firstborn, he receives great
blessings bestowed upon him by his father Isaac, coupled with
the responsibility to lead nations.
“May God give you heaven’s dew
and earth’s richness—an abundance of grain and new wine.
May nations serve you and peoples bow down to you.” (Genesis
27:28–29)
Esau, however, who is the firstborn son receives curses:
“Your dwelling will be away
from the earth’s richness, away from the dew of heaven
above. You will live by the sword and you will serve your
brother.” (Genesis 27:39–40)
Jacob received his
father’s firstborn blessing because it was pre-ordained
according to the will of God who said, “Jacob have I loved; but Esau
I hated.” (Romans 9:13)
A 13-year-old boy prays at the Western (Wailing) Wall before reading
the Torah.
Descendants of
Curses Bring More Curses
Just as Cain’s jealousy turned into a murderous
plot to kill his brother Abel, so too did Esau plot to
kill Jacob, but without success.
This struggle between the brothers did not suddenly
appear. Even in Rivkah’s womb, the boys jostled with each
other. Rivkah sought
wisdom from the Lord, who revealed to her a truth that
continues to this day:
“Two nations are in your
womb, and two peoples from within you will be separated;
one people will be stronger than the other, and the older
will serve the younger.” (Genesis 25:23)
Rabbis over the centuries have compared the
jealous, hate-filled character of Esau to the perpetual
struggle between the descendants of both brothers.
Jacob’s descendants were birthed out of obedience to his
father Isaac, who told him not to marry a Canaanite woman,
and he did not.
Esau, on the other hand, married two Canaanite women.
One of Esau’s Canaanite offspring was Amalek, who became an
archenemy of pre-state Israel by attacking Moses and the
Israelites while in the wilderness (Exodus 17). They
also invaded Israel during the time of the Judges:
“Whenever the Israelites
planted their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites and other
eastern peoples invaded the country.” (Judges 6:3)
Reading from the Torah scroll
Many try to link the genealogy of Esau and the Amalekites
to the modern enemies of Israel. While this might be
accurate to some degree, the truth is that the
spirit of Esau and the Amalekites to destroy the heirs of
blessing has remained alive among many nations.
We saw this hatred in modern pre-state Israel during the
expulsion of Jews from England, the tortures of the Spanish
Inquisition, and the genocide of six million Jews in the
Holocaust.
We saw its vibrancy continue
as surrounding nations invaded the newly-formed modern
Israel in 1948, again in 1967, and most recently
with terrorist groups that vow to claim the land “from
the river to the sea” for their own birthright.
Orthodox Jewish children pray at the Western (Wailing) Wall.
While half of the Jewish population has been
wiped out in recent decades and specific plans to
remove us from the land circulate today, ultimately the Lord
will uphold His vows to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and their
descendants:
“I am the Lord, the God of
your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you
[Jacob] and your descendants the land on which you are
lying. Your descendants will be like the dust of the
earth, and ... all peoples on earth will be blessed
through you and your offspring.” (Genesis 28:13–14)
Those who attack
God’s everlasting plans through Jacob are, in fact,
placing curses over their own land.
Isaac prayed over Jacob, “May
those who curse you be cursed” (Genesis 27:29),
and God assures us through the Prophet Ezekiel that this
curse continues to hold true.
“Because
you have had an ancient hatred, and have shed the blood of
the children of Israel by the power of the sword at the
time of their calamity, when their iniquity came to an
end, therefore, as I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘I will prepare you for blood, and blood shall pursue
you; since you have not hated blood, therefore blood shall
pursue you.’” (Ezekiel 35:5–6)
Christians stand with Israel at a rally in London.
The focus of this Parasha is not really curses, but
blessings.
The Hebrew word for blessed
(baruch) is significant in this
Parasha: out of 106 verses, baruch appears 34 times!
This word, baruch, comes from brachah (blessing), but with a small
change in vowel, it becomes breicha
— a wellspring
of water or even a pool.
Today, we see that God has kept His promise to
turn the barren places of this land into wellsprings and
pools of water:
“I will make rivers flow on
barren heights, and springs within the valleys. I will
turn the desert into pools of water, and the parched
ground into springs.” (Isaiah 41:18)

Inheriting the
Blessing
During the saga of Jacob and Esau, a famine came over the
Land. Although Abraham went down to Egypt for food
at times of famine, the Lord instructed Isaac to stay.
“The Lord appeared to Isaac
and said, ‘Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land where
I tell you to live.’” (Genesis 26:2)
Like Abraham, Isaac obeyed the Lord and, indeed,
was blessed by God for it.
was blessed by God for it.
“Sojourn in this land, and I
will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and
unto thy seed, I will give all these lands, and I will
establish the oath which I swore unto Abraham thy father.”
(Genesis 26:3)
This shows us the
wisdom of seeking the Lord for solutions to our problems
and not necessarily repeating what our father before us
did, or what seems the logical answer.
God may ask us to stay in a situation when everything and
everyone is telling us to get out—fast!
If God is instructing us to stay, then even in a raging
fire, we can be a blessing by providing His Living Water.

arson attacks across Israel. (Photo: YouTube capture)
As we watch the flames of destruction, jealousy
and hate in the spirit of Esau rise up in Jerusalem and
Israel at large this past week and a half, there is a
temptation to think we here in Israel should escape and
“go down to Egypt” or perhaps
to the US or Canada.
But if the Spirit of God tells us to stay, then we can
know that He will protect us and establish the oath He swore
unto our forefathers to give us this Land.
"For My thoughts are not
your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways," declares
the LORD.” (Isaiah 55:8)
Lifting the Torah
Yeshua Brings the
Ultimate Blessing to the Promised Land
“Isaac reopened the wells
that had been dug in the time of his father Abraham, which
the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died, and he
gave them the same names his father had given them.” (Genesis
26:18)
As God tested Abraham's faith, Isaac likely suffered some
post traumatic stress from being tied up by his father and
almost sacrificed. But in this Parasha, we see that Isaac
is a man of Godly character with Godly vision who
continues to carry on his father’s business by
re-digging the wells Abraham had dug on his way to Beer
Sheva.
Why are these wells significant? They were vital sources
of water in a harsh, dry desert land. But here we see that
these life-giving water holes had been intentionally filled
with dirt. This
can only be interpreted as a barbaric act, done to
discourage and even endanger life in order to prevent
Isaac from accessing his father’s wells.
We see similar discouragement from lack of water when the
children of Israel camped in the wilderness after their
exodus from Egypt. When they finally came to a well, they
sang praises to Adonai:
“From there they went to
Beer, which is the well where the LORD said to Moses,
‘Gather the people together, and I will give them water.’
Then Israel sang this song: ‘Spring up, O well!’” (Numbers
21:16–18)

Abraham had purposefully named these wells after
God to remind people that He is the source of all life.
It is with joy today that we draw from deep wells of living
water.
“With joy you will draw
water from the wells of salvation.” (Isaiah 12:3)
When Yeshua ministered to the Samaritan woman at a well,
He made the bold claim of being the Jewish Messiah. There,
He proclaimed Himself to be the source of living waters that
leads to eternal life.
“But whoever drinks the
water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I
give them will become in them a spring of water welling up
to eternal life." (John 4:14)
The ultimate heirs of blessing are the heirs of the
promised Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach, who became the final
sacrifice for all who trust and believe that He is that
promise.
This salvation is a free gift that 99% of Jewish People
do not yet know about because no one has explained to them
how the Hebrew Scriptures reveal Yeshua as their promised
Messiah.
Nevertheless, the
Bible promises that in these last days, as the Times of
the Gentiles come to a close, all of Israel will be
saved.
"I do not want you to be
ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that
you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a
hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles
has come in, and in this way all of Israel will be
saved." (Romans 11:25–26)
You can be part of this end-time move of God by helping
Bibles for Israel bring the Good News of Yeshua to the Holy
Land.
"You will again have
compassion on us; You will tread our sins
underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of
the sea." (Micah 7:19)
"Hear the word
of the LORD, you nations; proclaim it in distant
coastlands: 'He who scattered Israel will gather them
and will watch over His flock like a shepherd.'" (Jeremiah 31:10)

Shalom from the Entire Bibles For Israel Family!
Articles cannot be copied without permission
gave the world the BIBLE. Today there are about 14 million
Jewish people in the world though most have never studied
the Messianic Prophecies. Finally, for the first time, there will
be a Hebrew Messianic Prophecy Bible, based on the
Ancient Dead Sea Scrolls and Masoretic texts translated
into hundreds of languages, exposing the true meanings.
Many have falsely said that God is finished with His
Chosen People; however, Bible prophecy clearly states that
this will never be so. In fact, in these Last Days, God is moving
among His people to physically and spiritually restore them.
