"Danger Will Robinson, danger !" This popped in my mind after seeing what is going on in a Noahide Facebook group. After skimming several threads and even answering some questions I quickly saw that such a page only breeds confusion and thus the birth of this next blog. Disclaimer: For those who do not know, …

My Noahide Experience
Since leaving Christianity, I have had many discussions with other Christians. Somewhere in the talks they will bring up how Jesus/Yeshua changed their life and how he delivered them from some kind of vise, like, alcohol, drugs or so on. A well known rabbi once said after hearing a similar comment, “That’s not a …
Forever Kindness
While at work the other day, I heard a radio playing in the background in another department. On that day the station was set on one of those stations that played old time Christian gospel songs which is very popular here in the South USA. One of the songs was an old favorite to many …
ASHREI – HAPPY
Psalm 146: 5a Happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob, (www.mechon-mamre.org) The first Hebrew word of this verse is ‘Ashrei’, it is translated into the English as, happy, praiseworthy or praises. When I read this verse the other day, it has been in my thoughts now for days. I knew from …

Baggage
This morning I began the study of a book I was recommended by a friend, ‘The Introduction To The Talmud by Maimondides’ translated by Zvi Lampel. In the translator’s Preface is found a statement that I found myself pondering on all morning, “...by peerless, earnest toil, in an attempt to understand the will of Hashem.” …
Knowledge
This morning I a woke with the subject of ‘knowledge’ on my mind. I knew shortly that I wanted to write on it for it has been on my mind for some time now. Shortly after I woke I had read a writing on this week’s Torah section by Yossi Katz of the Breslov Research …
I Am Not Greek
I just want to make a personal statement up front, this blog is based on my personal thoughts and opinions. This has become a statement that I wake up to here recently, one I have given much thought on. The southeastern Tennessee USA culture I was born into is made up from other cultures. Our …
