Weekly Bracha 25

This week in the Messianic blogosphere, plus related items:
  • Acts 15: What Kefa Said and What Ya’akov Said – Kineti reader Efrayim looks at Acts 15 from a fresh perspective.

  • An Assault, Cloaked in Peace – New York Times article that sets the record straight on the recent Gaza flotilla incident.

  • Introducing Yechezkel Bund – The Rosh Pina bloggers highlight an ex-Messianic Jew who abandoned Yeshua, and how he worries less about Jews for Jesus, and more about those Messianics who are trying to build a Judaism around Yeshua.

  • In the beginning, with wisdom, the son of YHWH created the heavens and the earth – The Targum Neofiti has the text “the son of YHWH” as the creator of the heavens and the earth. Is this a later insertion by the Christian church, or is it an authentic part of the text?

  • Verdict in Be’er Sheva a blow against Messianic believers in Israel – Judaism-shaming Yad L’achim activists infiltrated and started a riot at an Israeli Messianic congregation in 2005. Messianics brought a lawsuit against the perpetrators, but the court has ruled against the Messianics, and ordered them to pay the lawyer fees of the perpetrators.
