Showing results for "Seven" in Judaism

Some people find the Old Testament to be confusing, out of date, and essentially replaced by the New Testament. They are missing out. The Old Testament offers us a grand narrative that reveals God's work, God's purposes, and God's wisdom. Christopher J. H. Wright fits the pieces together and shows us the coherent whole. Using seven key sentences drawn straight from the Old Testament, he connects the dots and points us toward Jesus.

Weet jy van die bus wat jou hemel toe kan neem? Het jy al jou kaartjie bespreek en indien nie, hoekom wag jy nog?

Dit is om terug te keer na Torah, naamlik na God se liefdevolle onderrig vir ‘n lewe as geregverdigde in Yeshua dié Gesalfde Een.

Volgens die Joodse kalender is die aanvang van Teshuvah altyd op die eerste dag van die sesde maand (Elul) en eindig op Yom Kippur (die Dag van Toedekking) – ‘n tydperk van 40 dae.
