Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?Taking us to Jeremiah 29:12 Rabbi Steve Berkson points out Yahweh’s pattern of behavior towards His people. When He needs to correct covenant behavior He starts with small subtle nudges and then uses more severe measures to get our attention. Then at some point if He determines we are not listening or responding, we will be turned loose to “play with the pigs” and hopefully come to ourselves and return to Him and the Covenant.• What’s the first thing one should do when returning to Yahweh?• What is “hedging an apology”?• What is not seeking Yahweh with all your heart?In Isaiah 55:6 two things are mentioned – seeking Yahweh while He can still be found, and calling on Him while He is near.• What causes Him to not be near? What separates and causes distance between you and Him?• Why do we not fully understand and accept His ways?• What are 3 things that will forever be in the Kingdom of Elohim?From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to Lamentations chapters 3 and 5 where we see the formula for a prayer of repentance.• Have you ever been contrary to the Covenant out of rebellion?• What does this mean, “renew our days as of old”?Then we hop back to Jeremiah 6:8-17 where we see how Torah is much more than just “The Law”, but it is for our instruction. Yahweh wants us to be ‘instructed’ by Him.• How can our ears be “uncircumcised”?• Why does Yahweh want to see us walk out His instructions?• What is “greedy for gain”?Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery and learning how to covenant with our Creator and Father which from time to time requires us to turn around and return to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Some of the topics covered are;• Discipleship today vs. 2,000 years ago… • Explaining the importance and meaning behind the Promised Land… • Why the blessings and curses in Leviticus 26?• How do I process mentally, emotionally and spiritually an experience when in a Christian church I received a “word” that was specifically directed at me? • Leviticus 26:19, “your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze” – what does this mean? • More about the “Good News”… • Yahweh had a problem with the sacrificial system and priesthood… • Be very cautious about making an issue of genealogy… • Is cannibalism being talked about in Leviticus 26:29?… and much more!Afterburn: also known in the world of fitness as the “afterburn effect”, simply put; The more intense the exercise, the more oxygen your body consumes afterward.

Seldom does Rabbi Steve Berkson do a “timing teaching”, but it seems the Ruach put this one in front of him (at the behest of Rabbi Tom) to bring to you today. This teaching series is based on a tradition called “Shabbat Shuva” or the “Shabbat of Return” which by tradition falls between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur (Day of Trumpets and Day of Atonement). The text for this tradition is Hoshea (Hosea) chapter 14 and begins with, “O Yisra’el, return to Yahweh your Elohim…”So, after having gone through the Spring Feasts – Passover, Unleavened Bread, and Shavuot, which are types and shadows of the Hebrew's exodus from Egypt and journey to Mt. Sinai, have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or, have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh?• What is meant by “crookedness”? What does crookedness cause you to do?• Regarding the call to return – return to what?From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us into Leviticus chapter 26 to look at the reasons to return to the Covenant. In Leviticus chapter 26 the blessings and the curses associated with Yahweh’s Covenant with His people are listed.• How is it that you will be able to walk in Covenant with the Creator?From Leviticus, we go to Deuteronomy 4:25 where we can see that Yahweh has an issue with His people and their idol worship. How can we today relate to them in that time regarding ‘idol worship’?Rabbi Berkson then takes us to Deuteronomy chapter 30 to show us one of the final exhortations of Moses to the people as they are about to cross over into the Promised Land. Interestingly, Yahweh through Moses told the people that in their future they would stray from the path they were supposed to walk and be taken from the Land by their enemies, but as they were living in a foreign land, their hearts would turn back to Yahweh and they would return once again to possess and live in their Promised Land.• In this chapter we see the phrase, “circumcise your heart” – what does that mean? Isn't that just a "New Testament" concept? What is it doing left of Matthew?And then we are taken to Romans chapter 10 where Rabbi Berkson points out that the apostle Paul is clearly writing about Torah observance, and indeed substitutes the word ‘Messiah’ for the word ‘Torah’ as he quotes Moses in the section from Deuteronomy chapter 30.• What does Romans 10:4 really mean?• What is “the righteousness of belief”?• What is “the good news of the good”? • Was there “Good News” before the New Testament?Verse-by-verse and step-by-step Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on the journey of discovery and learning how to covenant with our Creator and Father which from time to time requires us to turn around and return to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Some of the topics covered are:• Thoughts from Steve Waffle… • Oaths, promises and making swears (James 5:12)• Saying, “if God wills…” (James 4:15)• If I am “rich” but righteous in Yahweh, are bad things going to happen to me?

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In this teaching Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in the second “Great Command” of loving your neighbor or loving each other. He takes up where we left off in James (Ya’akov) chapter 4, then moves into chapter 5, then takes us to 1 John chapter 1.• How do your likes or dislikes affect your relationship with others? What does Rabbi mean by saying we have to “learn each other”?• What does “friendship with world” mean?• What does “subject yourselves to Elohim” mean?• What does “resist the devil” mean?• How do you draw near to Elohim? How does Elohim draw near to you?• When pursuing Torah, who’s feelings are you concerned most about protecting – your friends and family or Elohim?• How would you define ‘sin’?• Do you really understand what the first two verses of 1 John is talking about?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.As he continues in Ephesians chapter 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson untangles the understanding that many have concerning disobedience, sin, covenant and what it looks like to truly love Messiah Yeshua.• What are “empty words”?• What does it mean to be “a partaker with them”?• Who are you to “have no fellowship with”?From there Rabbi Berkson takes us to 1 Timothy chapter 1 and explains how some have missed the goal of the command given by Paul to his disciple from a clean heart, a good conscience and a sincere belief, and have turned aside to senseless talk, some actually teaching that the Torah no longer applies to us today, just that we believe and love Messiah.Then Rabbi Berkson moves us to 2 Peter chapter 1 where we see Peter telling us that we have been given exceedingly great and precious promises by the righteousness of our Elohim and Savior Messiah Yeshua. Rabbi Berkson also points out that belief in Elohim and His Messiah is just the foundation, and that you need to “add” to that foundation with certain things.• What is “Kingdom Access”?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

(Eph 4:25)• How can one be “wroth, but do not sin”? (Eph 4:26)• What does it mean to “give place to the devil”? (Eph 4:27)• What would be considered a “corrupt word”?

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.“This is the harder part”, as Rabbi Steve Berkson says, the “harder part” being the appropriate interaction with one another fulfilling the second of the two great commands, loving our neighbor as ourselves. In this teaching Rabbi Berkson pinpoints the main reason we struggle with our interaction with each other, which may or may not surprise many of us.Covering the remainder of Ephesians chapter 4, Rabbi Berkson again unpacks the writings of the apostle Paul to his assembly. And just as was Paul’s desire, Rabbi Berkson’s desire is that all those under his stewardship would learn how to do what pleases the Creator and enter into the Kingdom of Elohim.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing in 1 Corinthians chapter 13, aka “The Love Chapter”, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains how love can take on many forms of behavior such as patience, preferring another above yourself, treating those who abuse and slander you with kindness, etc. “The Love Chapter” says real love does not behave indecently – what is indecent behavior? Can you find a definite description in scripture? Rabbi Berkson explains how this concept is different among various cultures, societies, peoples, etc. This is also where he talks about “Situational Awareness” and why you should practice it in order to demonstrate love toward others.Wrapping up “The Love Chapter”, Rabbi Berkson takes care in going word by word, term by term, verse by verse to ensure that you, even though you may have read this chapter many times, will have an even deeper understanding of what it means to love one another.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Related Teachings can be found here: Developing the Character of Yeshua https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_fefHRSPcUlLPsRSeHwxsb What is Worship? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-_h58GEfh00Hbr_JozebDE INfocus: You’re Still Wrong https://youtu.be/V9SU20AM5B8 INfocus: Emunah https://youtu.be/UxxiMAbTEwA INfocus: Take My Yoke Upon You? https://youtu.be/I7Eqjtf6_LY Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.On the Holy Day of Shavuot, Rabbi Berkson continues to unpack Romans chapter 12, helping us understand the meaning behind the writing to that assembly of that time and what it has to do with us today.What does it mean to “offer our bodies as a living sacrifice, which is our ‘reasonable service’?What does it look like to “think more highly of yourself than you should think”? Rabbi Berkson goes deep into verse 3 to show what that means.What is the “measure of belief” that verse 3 mentions?What are the “gifts” that are listed in verses 6-8? Are they “spiritual gifts”?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.During the weekend of Shavuot Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a prelude to the Love and Torah teaching about what Shavuot means in your life – a dedication of your life to living in the belief of who and what Messiah Yeshua really is and becoming like Him.Then, going to 2 John, Rabbi Berkson breaks down the first few verses as John is writing to a family that he may be discipling. The elder reminds them of the important commandment to walk in love in the way the Father desires us all to walk.In verse 7 John warns about associating with certain people that could derail the faith of this family. Among this warning John uses the term “anti-Messiah”. Rabbi Berkson explains this term in understandable detail.What does it mean to “possess both the Father and the Son”? (2 John 9)From there Rabbi Berkson moves us to Romans 12 and unpacks the intent of the writer as we read about presenting ourselves as a sacrifice and offering, not conforming to the “mindset of” the world and knowing what is the perfect desire and will of the Father.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.As he begins this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings out the big guns as he challenges you to understand and take action regarding what it is you really struggle with – you.• Why is it you seem to struggle with your relationships and with yourself?Rabbi Berkson takes us into Philippians 2 to unpack what the Apostle Paul wrote to the assembly in Philippi regarding how they should conduct themselves in his absence. Paul exhorts those in that assembly to take on the mind of Messiah Yeshua and in doing so, considering others better than themselves in humility and having an awareness of the other’s needs.• Are you aware that what you may be doing at any given moment may be creating an adverse condition for somebody else?• Are you giving to other’s and the Father the kind of attention that’s necessary for a flourishing relationship?• What is meant by “leadership serving” and “submissive serving”?• What are the differences between unity, uniformity and conforming?• Did Messiah Yeshua or His Apostles ever make the message of the Kingdom “palatable” for their listeners?• We all have our own emotional preferences, but when can those be a bad thing?• Are you the kind of person Yahweh can ‘trust’ with forever?• Is there grumbling, complaining and disputing in the Body of Messiah?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Starting off in this teaching, Rabbi Berkson clarifies a couple of things, one of which being the authority given to the husband from scripture. It seems that some people misinterpreted what Rabbi said in the last teaching to the point that it could be very troublesome in some marriages. So, Rabbi Steve takes the opportunity to give some “Covenant-Live Coaching” for married couples, those looking to be married soon and those who should not be in an intimate relationship yet, teenagers.Then moving into Ephesians chapter 6, Rabbi Berkson addresses the children and “servants”.Which commandment is for the children and the only one with a promise? Could this commandment have a deeper, more far-reaching interpretation?Paul wrote to the fathers to not “provoke” their children…what does this mean?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Who are the servants to whom Paul refers?Related Teachings can be found here:• Making Decisions…the reason you exist https://youtu.be/9RfUrlBAVWw• Do You Trust Yahweh Enough to Obey Him? https://youtu.be/EZg_97aOK_8Don't miss out on new teachings every week.
