#ShabbatShalom - Welcome to this week’s Torah Portion, which is called Re’eh (See/ Behold).
This is the portion of Scripture that will be read during Shabbat (Saturday) morning services
in synagogues around the world.  Enjoy! Please read along with us; we know you will be blessed!
 
Last week in Parasha Eikev, Moses promised the Israelites that if they were obedient to the commands of the Torah, they would prosper in the Promised Land. This week, as the children of Israel stand poised to cross over into the Jordan, God sets before the people two separate and distinct directions:  a way of blessing if they choose to obey God’s commandments and a way of cursing if they choose to walk in disobedience to those laws. These two directions, the blessing and the curse, are to be proclaimed on two mountaintops in the Land:  Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal.

Weekly Torah Portion: Re'eh

As Moshe readies his people for their entry into the land of Israel and the establishment of a Torah-based just society, he introduces the concept of "the place which HaShem your G-d shall choose," suggesting that the location of the future Holy Temple is unknown. yet, from the days of Adam, Avraham and Yaakov, the location of the Holy Temple has been known. Has G-d really not yet chosen the place of His Chosen House? or is G-d simply waiting for Israel to choose likewise, and build the Holy Temple? 

Re'eh (Deuteronomy 11:26 - 16:17) Parashat Re'eh is read on Shabbat: Av 30, 5779 / August 31, 2019

Arab Intrigues on the Temple Mount and the Opportunities they Present 

As Moshe continues to exhort the children of Israel to settle the four corners of the land of Israel and to uproot the idolatry that prevails in the land, he reveals to Israel the best news yet: G-d will also choose a place for His presence to dwell within the land, and all of Israel is invited to celebrate with G-d in the Holy Temple that will be built. Yitzchak Reuven, alone at the mic for this week's Temple Talk, as Rabbi Richman prepares for his upcoming historic trip to India, traces the history of the "place which G-d will choose" from the dawn of creation through the time of Avraham, Moshe and King David, right up to today, where a behind the scenes look at Muslim machinations on the Mount present Israel; with a green light to re-institute full sovereignty over the place of the Holy Temple!

Hillel Richman: The True Location of the Temple Mount: Fully Illustrated

Archaeologist Hillel Richman, Senior Researcher and Past Supervisor, Ancient Jerusalem Sifting Project and Temple Mount Sifting Project, refutes the spurious theories claiming that the Temple Mount was in any other place other than Mount Moriah, with an emphasis on the 'City of David' theory, while providing incontrovertible historical and archaeological proof that the Holy Temple was, and will be, located on what is today referred to as the Temple Mount. Hillel's talk is accompanied by more than 100 photos, illustrations and charts. This teaching was recorded on 11/11, 2018, in Lubbock, Texas.

A study of the lives of our patriarchs and matriarchs, sheds light on the purpose of suffering and the path it can open before us, leading us closer to G-d. This teaching was recorded on 11/11, 2018, in Lubbock, Texas.

Filmed in the Old City of Jerusalem, this ground-breaking documentary investigates the research of renowned Biblical archaeologists, Bob Cornuke, David Sielaff and Earnest L. Martin who claim that Solomon and Herod's Temples never stood on the Haram al Sharif, also known as the Temple Mount. If they are right, then there is nothing to stop the Jewish people building their long awaited for Third Jewish Temple in the actual site where the Temples once stood.

Netanyahu Promises Jewish Prayer on Temple Mount “Before the Messiah Comes” 
But Security Minister Says Sooner Than That 
by Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz 
In the course of an interview last week in Ukraine, Ze’ev Kam, a reporter for Kan News, asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the “elementary rights of the Jews to pray at the Temple Mount, their holiest site.” Netanyahu’s answer, which was published in “Sheva”, was, “Don’t worry, it will happen, and before the arrival of the Messiah.” On the website for Temple Mount advocacy, Har-Habait, they noted that Netanyahu had already made this promise. Yehuda Etzion, founder of the Chai V’Kayam temple mount advocacy group, sent a letter to then-Likud candidate Netanyahu asking about his views on Jewish rights at the site.

Pompeo on Possible Military Conflict With Iran: “Israel can certainly count on the U.S.A.”
by JNS 

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Thursday that Israel can rely on diplomatic, legal and military assistance in the event of a war with Iran. He told radio host Hugh Hewitt that the Trump administration has been “incredibly supportive each time Israel has been forced to take actions to defend itself. The United States has made it very clear that that country has not only the right but the duty to protect its own people. He added that “we are always supportive of their efforts to do that. So with respect to ensuring that Israel is treated fairly at the United Nations, Israel can certainly count on the United States of America.”

New Israeli Technology can Hijack Hostile Drones, Use them Against Enemy
by David Sidman 

Anti-drone technology that was recently developed in Israel can take control of hostile drones and land them anywhere it wants. Taking over drones without causing any damage enables Israel to not only reuse them but also extract any data that the drone collected before its interception. “The system that we developed can detect hostile drones at a range of up to three and a half kilometers [about 2 miles] and take control of about 200 drones at the same time,” Asaf Lebovitz, the product manager at Skylock, one of the Israeli companies that developed the technology, told Haaretz in an interview.

Baby Killers

“Thou shalt not kill.” Exodus 20:13 
”…I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses.
Now choose life, so that you and your children may live:”

Remember good ole boy Johnny Edwards—actually North Carolina Democrat Senator John Edwards (1998-2012), VP candidate in 2004, and presidential candidate in 2008? Edwards is hard to forget because he burst upon the national stage as the golden-tongued lawyer who was famous for defending the rights of the unborn.

London: A mix of foreign tourism and Islamic tribalism 
Brexit is the only hope for salvaging England’s tradition and culture.
by Giulio Meotti, INN

I just visited London, which I had missed for some time. And shockingly, apart from the statue of Winston Churchill in Parliament Square, London is no longer London. Excellent services, widespread wealth, global attraction, consumerism at full steam, the symbol of the royal family that still holds up, an enviable British education, so many positive things that many Westerners lack and envy. But also many scenes that look as though they come from Afghanistan, Somalia or Saudi Arabia.

A Meaty Shabbat Menu
In this week’s Parsha, Reeh, the Torah expands on the farewell speech Moses is delivering to the Jewish people, saying: “When the Lord, your God, expands your boundary, as He has spoken to you, and you say, ‘I will eat meat,’ because your soul desires to eat meat, you may eat meat, according to every desire of your soul.” A few weeks ago I shared a Vegetarian Shabbat Menu and now this week we have permission to go full on meat, but not heavy.

See (רְאֵה – Re’eh), says Moses to the people of Israel, I place before you today a blessing and a curse: the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you today; and the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known. 
Deuteronomy 11:26–28



Shabbat Shalom - Parasha Re’eh - The Steps on the Path of Blessing !!!

 
Welcome to this week’s Torah Portion,
which is called Re’eh (See/ Behold).
 
Shabbat Shalom
 
This is the portion of Scripture that will be read during Shabbat (Saturday) morning services in synagogues around the world.  Enjoy!
 
Re’eh (See / Behold)
Deuteronomy 11:26–16:17; Shabbat Rosh Chodesh: Isaiah 66:1–24; maftir: Numbers 28:9-15; Matthew 7:7–29
 
See (רְאֵה – Re’eh),” says Moses to the people of Israel, “I place before you today a blessingand a curse: the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you today; and the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.”  (Deuteronomy 11:26–28)
 
 
Last week in Parasha Eikev, Moses promised the Israelites that if they were obedient to the commands of the Torah, they would prosper in the Promised Land.
 
This week, as the children of Israel stand poised to cross over into the Jordan, God sets before the people two separate and distinct directions:  a way of blessing if they choose to obey God’s commandments and a way of cursing if they choose to walk in disobedience to those laws.
 
These two directions, the blessing and the curse, are to be proclaimed on two mountaintops in the Land:  Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal.
 
“Now it shall be, when the LORD your God has brought you into the land which you go to possess, that you shall put the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal.”  (Deuteronomy 11:29)
 

Today, Nablus rests between Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal, the mountains
on which the Israelites were commanded to pronounce the blessings and
curses upon entering the Promised Land.  This is also the location of
Biblical Shechem, the place where Abram built an altar to the Lord
(Genesis 12:6–8).
 
Each one of us has been given this same choice to follow Him or not; in fact, the entire direction of our lives depends on which path we choose— the path of His blessing or of His curse.
 
Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah also told us of two paths — the narrow path that leads to life — and the broad path that leads to destruction.  Sadly, it seems that few choose the narrow path.  Most walk that broad path of destruction.
 
“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.  Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”  (Matthew 7:13–14)
 
Why does Yeshua, who is the Gate to salvation, tell us that the path of blessing is difficult, and that few enter His gate?
 
Because each day, we have to make hard choices between what our carnal nature desires and what is in alignment with the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit).  To obey God requires that we crucify
the desires of our flesh. 
 
“I have been crucified with Messiah.  It is no longer I who live, but Messiah who lives in me.  And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.” 
(Galatians 2:20) 
 

Yeshua Bearing the Execution Stake, by James Tissot
 
Staying on the Path of Blessing During Trials  
Sadly, human pride, love of sin, and opposition from spiritual forces of darkness keep many walking the broad path of destruction, preventing them from entering into a life of blessing through obedience to God.
 
As well, too many new Believers think that coming to faith in Yeshua and living a life of obedience to God are supposed to make all the problems and trials of life disappear.
 
Yeshua did not promise this.  In fact, He assured us that in this life we will have trouble.  He Himself was persecuted, as were His followers.
 
Despite that, we need not be discouraged.  We can be of good cheer, joyful in the Lord, for He has overcome the world.
 
“I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace.  In this world you will have trouble.  But take heart!  I have overcome the world.”  (John 16:33)
 

"In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who
loved us."  (Romans 8:37)
 
Choosing to obey God’s commandments in times of trouble is not always easy, especially when the whole world seems to be going in a different direction.
 
Going against the current can take a great deal of exertion and determination — whether for spawning salmon or for people desiring to live a righteous life.  It takes effort to swim against the current.
 
Even simply making the choice to obey God can be excruciatingly painful.  Yeshua experienced this in the Garden of Gethsemane when facing the choice to submit to God even to the point of death on the tree.
 
It was here, in the dark valley of decision that the battle was won, when Yeshua said, “Father, if you are willing, take this cup from Me; yet not My will, but Yours be done."  (Luke 22:42)
 
This decision was so agonizing for Yeshua that He seemed to sweat drops of blood:  “Being in an agony He prayed more earnestly; and His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.”  (Luke 22:44)
 

Messiah in the Garden of Gethsemane, by Vasily Grigorevich Perov
 
We may not actually sweat drops of blood, but we may come to a crossroad in our lives where we must also decide whether to obey God’s will or to choose our own way — and the cost may seem beyond our ability to bear.  But God has promised that His grace is sufficient for us in every circumstance.
 
Choosing to obey God will lead to blessing; however, we may not receive our full reward until Heaven.
 
For that reason, we must always live with an eternal perspective, not allowing the trials of life to weaken our faith.
 
“Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.”  (James 1:12)

The Steps on the Path of Blessing  
“For you are a holy people to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.”  (Deuteronomy 14:2)
 
This Parasha emphasizes that the path of blessing includes not following false gods or false prophets.  All elements of pagan worship must be purged from our lifestyle so that we may be the holy people that God has called us to be.
 
The narrow way described in Re’eh includes God’s commandments regarding the consumption of clean and unclean animals:  “You shall not eat any detestable thing.”  (Deuteronomy 14:3)
 
Although many Christians consider these dietary commands abolished, Yeshua did not support this kind of thinking.
 
He made this astounding statement:  
 
“Don’t assume that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets.  I did not come to destroy but to fulfill ….  Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commands and teaches people to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven.  But whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”  
(Matthew 5:17–19) 
 

A Jewish man eats falafel in Israel.
 
The path of blessing also includes giving tithes to the Levites, who were dependent on the people for their livelihood:
 
“You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no part nor inheritance with you.”  (Deuteronomy 14:27) 
 
Generosity toward the poor is also important.
 
God said we are to open our hand and our heart
to give to the poor in our land: 
 
“If there is among you a poor man of your brethren, within any of the gates in your land which the LORD your God is giving you, you shall not harden your heart nor shut your hand from your poor brother, but you shall open your hand wide to him and willingly lend him sufficient for his need, whatever he needs.”  
(Deuteronomy 15:7–8) 
 
Prosperity and financial blessing are not simply the result of working hard.  Neither is it owed to us because we are Believers. 
 
It is dependent upon exercising the spiritual principles of sowing and reaping.  As we give, it will be given back to us (Luke 6:38).  
 
God will bless us as we sow generous seeds in giving to the poor and to God’s faithful servants.
 
“You shall surely give to him, and your heart should not be grieved when you give to him, because for this thing the LORD your God will bless you in all your works and in all to which you put your hand.” 
(Deuteronomy 15:10)

Choosing the Path to Eternal Life
"But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed."  (Isaiah 53:5)
 
One of the most important choices each one of us must make is whether or not to receive Yeshua the Messiah as the atonement for all of our sins and through Him receive eternal life.
 
Our Messianic redemption (liberation / salvation / entrance into eternal life) is not something that we simply read about or hear preached.  It is a not-so-distant reality.
 
When Yeshua returns, He will come on the clouds and
every eye will see (Re’eh) Him. 
 
“Behold, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him; and all the tribes of the earth will mourn over Him.  So it is to be.  Amen.”  (Revelation 1:7)
 
White Horse (1918), by Nicholas Roerich
 
This New Covenant Scripture about the Second Coming of the Messiah is founded on several Messianic prophecies in which the Hebrew prophets also foresee Adonai coming with the clouds:
 
“A prophecy against Egypt: See, Adonai [YHVH] rides on a swift cloud and is coming to Egypt.  The idols of Egypt tremble before Him, and the hearts of the Egyptians melt with fear.”  (Isaiah 19:1)
 
"In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven.  He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence.”  (Daniel 7:13)
 
One day, we will all see the Son of man coming on the clouds with great power and glory!  Until that day comes, may we choose to faithfully and diligently walk on the path of blessing, keeping His commandments and teaching others to do the same.
 
"Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it."  
(Luke 11:28) 
 
 
Time is short.  Yeshua is returning soon.
 
Make a difference in these last days with your prayers and by being a good steward of the blessings God has bestowed on you, using them to help bring the Good News of Yeshua to the Holy Land.

Shabbat Shalom from the Entire Bibles For Israel Family!
