ABOUT Torah Ministry

ABOUT Torah is a Torah Observant, Messianic, and Hebrew Roots, association dedicated to training individuals for the purpose of igniting the flame of Torah in a world of darkness.

The Need

ABOUT-Torah is an acronym for, Association of Believers Observing, Understanding and Teaching Torah. Our goal is to be a Torah Observant teaching institution, that is dedicated to train Messianic individuals in the spiritual importance of living a Torah observant life. We understand that to be spiritually complete followers of Yeshua, Messianic Jewish and Messianic non-Jewish individuals need to lead a life serving HaShem in Spirit and in Truth. Therefore it is essential that all believers need to embrace the Ruach HaKodesh and walk in obedience to the Torah. Only when this goal is accomplished can HaShem be worshiped the way that Yeshua commands in John 4:22-23 which states "you worship what you have not known; we worship what we have known, because the salvation is of the Jews; but, there cometh an hour, and it now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also doth seek such to worship him;"

The Call:

"All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make students of all the nations, immersing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you."(Matthew 28:18-20).

The vision:

The vision is of a school where those of all backgrounds can come together to learn how to be students, not of academia, but students of Messiah Yeshua. We are all called to be imitators of Messiah Yeshua. Therefore, it is our duty to learn, how to live a holy life and worship the Messiah through the Torah.

The Students

The education students receive at ABOUT Torah is committed to furnishing the resources necessary in training Messianic Jewish and non-Jewish believers in how to live a spirit filled messianic lifestyle that is Torah Observant. As a result, ABOU Torah students are given the resources necessary to fulfill Ephesians 4:12-13 which states "for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Messiah: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Messiah"

The Hope

We hope that the newly observant as well as the experienced Torah Observant Messianic Jewish and non-Jewish Community, will find these teachings helpful in the struggle to embrace the Torah observant life.

The Tools

Some of the teachings available from About Torah are public. A comprehensive list of teachings publicly accessible from the Internet can be found on the Teachings Index page.

Messianic Jewish Shul and Research Institute for ABOUT Torah.

Ruach V'Emet is the messianic shul and research institute that is the home of the ABOUT-Torah online Beit Midrash. Ruach V'Emet has two primary desires.

1. The first desire is to bring messianic Jews and non-Jews together for the weekly Shabbat, with the purpose of implementing the practices started by the first century messianic movement.
2. The second desire is to understand and teach individuals about the first century messianic Jewish and non-Jewish movements through researching biblical, traditional and historical texts.

The combination of biblical, traditional and historical sources, united with the desire to implement the practices started by the first century messianic movement make the Ruach V'Emet worship experience unique.

What The Ruach V'Emet Research Institute Currently Offers:

The Ruach V'Emet research institute offers a free research service for ABOUT Torah students. The research program is available to any student who requests research on a specific biblical topic. However, due to time and material constraints each research topic is reviewed to determine if the library has the appropriate resources and staff to conduct the research project. When the library has the resources and staff are available the student than completes a formal research request. When the research request is submitted all of the relevant materials are compiled and returned to the student. The student than uses the material to write an APA collegiate quality paper citing the sources and giving credit to the authors.

The Ruach V'Emet Research Project:

As the Ruach V'Emet research institute expands it is our hope to offer a fee research service for all visitors. The fee service will make it possible for all interested individuals to research the foundation of the early Torah Observant Messianic Movement. To determine how much interest might be generated in research relating to the Hebrew Roots and Messianic Jewish roots of the first century we have included a prototype research form as part of this page

Torah Observant Research Request Page.

.

Historical research is one of the best tools available to understand the culture and the lifestyle of the Torah Observant Believer during Yeshua's life. To empower our visitors with this understanding ABOUT Torah maintains the Ruach V'Emet research project .

The Importance of Sighting the aviv

Keeping the feast of Passover marks the first appointed time in the Torah observant believer’s year. The Torah states very plainly in Deut. 16:1 when Passover is to be kept: “observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover unto the LORD thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night[i]”. According to this passage we must keep the feast of Passover in the month of Abib. To determine the exact date of this crucial month we must first come to an understanding what Abib is, and what is required. more...

The Messiah's unique Soul

One of the most debated topics between believers today is the concept of deity. To fully understand the concept of deity we must come to a common understanding of the term deity. The definition of deity is simple: “the state of being a god, divine nature, or godhood” (Webster’s[i]). Since the state of having a divine nature is known as a deity, is it possible that, based on traditional rabbinic thought, one can see that the soul has a divine nature? In traditional rabbinic sources it is not only possible, but understood that the soul of man is divine, and eternal, so by definition mankind is also deity. more ...

The Biblical Standard For New Moon

Rosh Hodesh (literally: head of the month) is important as the observable guide to the changing of the months and the seasons. The first month of each biblical year falls on the first New Moon after green Barley (aviv) has been found this usually occurs around the time of the spring equinox. All of the biblical feasts are dated from this date. more...

Seeing God Face To Face

No one can see the face of G-d and live as Exodus 33:20 states "But He said, "You cannot see My face; for no man shall see Me, and live." However, in Genesis 32:30 we can see from the text that Jacob saw G-d face to face and lived. Therefore, Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: as Gen 32:30 states "For I have seen G-d face to face, and my life is preserved." Is there a conflict in Torah? Or is there only an apparent conflict. The conflict is only related to our understanding not the actual meaning of the text. If Jacob saw G-d as stated in Gen 32:30 then how did G-d manifest to Jacob without destroying him? Jacob answers this for us himself. more...

Torah Observance and Grace

Through history unification of believers has been difficult to maintain. Unification of believers has been difficult to maintain because of the enmity that exists between Torah observant believers and believers who believe that grace has replaced the Torah. During the time of the apostles this enmity did not exist. First century believers believed that Torah observance was compatible with grace. As a result, first century believers were unified in one belief. When the early messianic community grew to a larger number of non-Jews than Jews the division between Torah observant believers and non-Torah observant believers also grew. more....

Community

This section is dedicated to the messianic community in general. Therefore, in this section thee teachings generally cover topics that are of importance to the whole messianic community. In addition to teachings there is currently a world wide messianic congregational database. We hope to continue expanding the database until it becomes one of the premier congregational listings on the internet.

Teachings

Discovery of the truth only occurs when we ask ourselves the tough questions. For example when did Sunday replace the 7th day Sabbath, or was a Torah Observant belief system replaced by a non-Torah Observant belief system. Blindly following a belief system without first asking these questions, can lead us to surrender our our will to individuals proclaiming false doctrines. In other words, blindly following someone else can lead to acceptance of a lie.

This section is dedicated to those few individuals who begin asking the tough questions. The teachings in this section are specifically designed to give individuals a starting point. Therefore, these teachings are designed to lightly introduce individuals to these topics. The scriptural concepts addressed here, will hopefully bring the reader to a point where he or she can embrace the Torah and start living the Torah Observant life.

Shabbat

One of the first questions that I'm often asked is when did Sunday replace the 7th day Sabbath. When I answer the question people are often amazed that the answer does not match what they have been taught. The person is totally shocked to discover that there is no commandment in the scriptures that mandates replacing the seventh day Sabbath with Sunday. In fact, the two scriptures that most people use to prove the case for Sunday are Mathew 28:1 and Acts 20:7. more...

Yom Teruah

To observe the beginning of a new month, the Yisraelites would celebrate the new moon. However, although the new moon was set aside to mark the beginning of a new month most new moons were not considered Holy. The Torah only sanctifies one new moon as Holy. This Holy new moon occurs on the first day of the seventh month as Vayikra 23:23-25 states more...

Sukkot

Prophetically speaking, Sukkot is more significant than then the other feasts. In the future, it will be mandatory for all the nations that war against Yerushalayim to go to Yerushalayim during the festival of Sukkot to worship the King. more...

The Biblical Standard of The Sighted New Moon

About-torah offers many historical teaching designed to inform messianics of the life styles of the followers of Yeshua during the first century. On this web page you will find a teaching related to the historical significance of the new moon and how messianics observed the new moon during the second temple period.

The Introduction to the The Sighted New Moon

Rosh Hodesh (literally: head of the month) is important as the observable guide to the changing of the months and the seasons. The first month of each biblical year falls on the first New Moon after green Barley (aviv) has been found this usually occurs around the time of the vernal equinox. All of the biblical feasts are dated from this date.

However, in the current traditional Jewish calendar the astronomical new moon closest to the spring equinox, whether or not aviv has been found, is used to date all of the feasts. The sighting of the new moon is not used as the beginning of the month. A scientific calculation is used to determine the exact timing of the new moon, resulting in the new moon being celebrated when there is no visible moon.

In the observance of Rosh Hodesh, some groups use the New Moon sighting to determine the beginning of the months. There is a discrepancy between the sighted New Moon Calendar and the Traditional Calendar. Sometimes this discrepancy can be as large as twenty-nine days. For historical accuracy and reference ABOUT Torah publishes a sighted New Moon Calendar on this web site. Therefore, our calendar may not coincide exactly with the traditional calendar.

There are many references to Rosh Hodesh in Scripture. At the end of this article you will find a listing of these references. While Scripture does not ever specifically address how to celebrate Rosh Hodesh, except the sacrificial offerings made in the Temple, it has been celebrated to varying degrees throughout the centuries.

At some point, Rosh Hodesh had been elevated to the status of Shabbat. No work or buying and selling were done on this day. We can see this by the references of Rosh Hodesh always being related in the same phrase as Shabbat. Also in Amos, written in the eighth-century B.C.E., the writer equates the attitude of the merchants of his day with immorality: "When will the New Moon be over so that we may sell grain? And Shabbat that we may trade wheat?" Rosh Hodesh was later viewed with less importance than Shabbat, the prohibition against ordinary work and trade being lifted.

Determining the beginning of the new month and proclaiming the time to all the land was always a problem. The following was extracted from The Language of Judaism by Simon Glustrom:

"During the existence of the Second Temple, the calendar was regulated by the testimony of witnesses. The Sanhedrin, the supreme court in Jerusalem, consisting of seventy-one members, sent witnesses for the specific purpose of observing the first appearance of the new moon. After the witnesses were examined, and their testimony accepted by the court, the judges would hold a special ceremony of announcing the new month. The president of the court would say: "The new month is proclaimed," and all present would repeat, "Proclaimed, proclaimed!"

On that evening fires were kindled on the highest peak near Jerusalem to signal nearby villages to notify those in more distant settlements. Thus the news was carried to all the residents of Palestine (Israel). Even the Jews of Babylonia were informed by relays of torches and bonfires. The following day was celebrated as Rosh Hodesh, the beginning of the month."

This method, however, was very susceptible to the whims of impostors who, for some reason, would light signal fires on nights that were not new moons. This created confusion and chaos in distant areas that did not have runners from Jerusalem.

Scientific rules for the computation of the calendar were set down by Hillel II in the middle of the fourth century C.E. based on the new moon sighting. This began the standardization of the Jewish calendar into what it is currently without the need for eye-witnesses and the involvement of the Sanhedrin.

Still remaining from the ancient proclamation of the New Moon is a prayer for the upcoming Rosh Hodesh said on the preceding Shabbat requesting blessings for the month and declaring when it will begin.

Rosh Hodesh is celebrated for either one or two days traditionally, reminiscent of the days when extra time was needed for runners and signal fires to reach distant areas. Traditionally, one day is observed when the previous month has only twenty-nine days. But when the previous month has thirty days, observance is for two days, the last day of the previous month as well as the first day of the new month. Some of the more orthodox treat the day before Rosh Hodesh as a day in which to fast and seek atonement.

In the synagogue selected Psalms and a portion of the Torah are read, allowing for four persons to be called up for the readings. And an additional "Musaf Amidah" is also in the service for Rosh Hodesh.

“Adar 2 and the Importance of Aviv”

To clarify the issue of adding Adar 2, it is crucial to note that the first new moon after the aviv is sighted is declared as the new moon of aviv. Therefore, even when aviv is found before the vernal equinox the month of aviv most likely starts on the new moon after the vernal equinox. This is because when aviv is found before the vernal equinox aviv has only been found a few days before the vernal equinox. Therefore, 99% of the time the first new moon after the vernal equinox is the new moon that starts the New Year. As a result, it makes it appear that the new moon that starts the first month of the biblical year is determined by the vernal equinox.

Biblically the emphasis is on the aviv and not on the vernal equinox.The only exception to the new moon of the first month being before the vernal equinox would happen when the new moon was sighted within few days after the aviv was found. This would be in that few days when aviv was sighted before the vernal equinox and the new moon occurred after the aviv was sighted.

This is a rare occurrence because, the vernal equinox is crucial for the maturing and the ripening of the aviv. The Northern Hemisphere begins to warm more rapidly when the sun is north of the equator. Therefore, the traditional Spring weather conditions and temperatures are more favorable for the aviv to ripen.

A much more common occurrence is when aviv is sighted much later than the vernal equinox. When this happens the sighting of aviv is used to add the 13th month, and the current year becomes a leap year. According to the Talmud, the case of using the vernal equinox (Tekufah) alone, to determine whether to add a 13th month or to start the first month was never officially accepted. “Our Rabbis taught: A year may be intercalated on three grounds: on account of the premature state of the corn-crops; or that of the fruit-trees; or on account of the lateness of the Tekufah Any two of these reasons can justify intercalation, but not one alone. All, however, are glad when the state of the spring-crop is one of them. Rabban Simeon b. Gamaliel says: On account of [the lateness of] the Tekufah. The Schoolmen inquired: Did he mean to say that ‘on account of the [lateness of the] Tekufah [being one of the two reasons], they rejoiced, or that the lateness of the Tekufah alone was adequate reason for intercalating the year? The question remains undecided.” This places a much greater emphasis on the aviv.

Even the Talmud states that the Sanhedrin was more comfortable declaring the thirteenth month when the aviv had not matured “Any two of these reasons can justify intercalation, but not one alone. All, however, are glad when the state of the spring-crop is one of them.”( Talmud - Mas. Sanhedrin 11b). The primary reason that the Sanhedrin felt uncomfortable declaring the thirteenth month when the aviv had not matured, was because, regardless of whether the vernal equinox had already occurred, the Omer wave offering could not be presented to HaShem without the first aviv harvest. In other words, the priests could not approach the Lord empty handed.

Email Links For Any Questions About The Admission, The Newsletter or General Info.

Due to the unethical practice of spammers, harvesting email addresses from public web pages, we've decided to place all the ABOUT-Torah email addresses on a single page. By doing this we hope to create two defenses against automatic address harvesting. The first defense will give us the ability to change all our email addresses on a single page. The second defense is that each email link requires manual activation. Manual activation should minimize the ability of spammers to harvest automatically. Thank you for your support and understanding as we try to minimize spam and keep your email addresses confidential.
