Seven Study Questions

“...sanctify the LORD God in your hearts, and be ready always to give an answer…” (1 Peter 3:15).

Seven questions are put at the end of every parsha lesson. A few have several parts. They are an important aspect of the disciple’s learning process. All fervent and energetic readers are encouraged to take the time and include them in their study discipline. They are intended to coax the student to rely upon interaction with the Holy Spirit, discern His voice, receive insight , and draw helpful answers. Thus, the “Seven Question” process will assist each learner to: 

(1) develop a vision for the restoration and reconciliation of the two separated houses of Israel–Judah and Joseph/Ephraim, 

(2) grow in foundational knowledge of the Torah, 

(3) recover the principles, practice, and the power of the Holy Spirit that the early, first-century Nazarene saints, and 

(4) experience and enjoy greater dimensions of the kingdom, power, and glory of Yeshua, the Son and our Messiah. 

The Questions 

The questions are the same for each lesson, however the answers will differ from lesson to lesson due to the progressive nature of the Parshat reading throughout the one year course..

First: Part A. In your opinion what is the main theme or teaching of each of the listed referenced readings of the lesson. Starting with the Torah: What is its title and its interpretation? What truth/idea does the interpretation of the title suggest? What is the Torah section’s main truth or emphasis as you see it? Part B. What is the corresponding, supportive truth/idea in the haftorah? In the Brit Chadashah? 

Second: A. What is the outstanding, central idea or subject that runs through and unites all the individual readings, as you see it? B. What does it convey concerning the importance, the duty...of discipleship?

Three: A. Find in the Gospels where and how Yeshua declares, demonstrates, and 

exemplifies or exhibits the parsha’s central truth, and explains. B. Give chapter and verse. How will you follow Him in living the lesson’s truth? 

Fourth: In what way is the glory of YHWH [manifestations of His goodness] revealed in the parsha lesson?

Fifth: What does the parsha teach you about your Hebraic heritage, relationship with Yeshua, and your duty as a Spirit born follower of the Messiah. If you are not sure, read Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 again. Learn: The answer is unequivocal, clear, and incontestable. The westernized, modern Ecclesia needs to get this issue straight.  “Yeshua said. ‘If anyone loves me, he will carefully keep my words’ ” (John 14:23). Our love for Him is demonstrated through our obedience to His teachings–all of which are reiterations of the Torah’s mitzvot.

Sixth: In what way did the Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh personally speak to you during prayer and study time this week? Did He impress you about how to apply the parsha lesson directly in your life? Please explain!

Seventh: “...because of practice [by reason of use] have their senses trained [exercised] to discern…” You and I, and all saints, are called to return to hearing the voice of our eternal Elohim and to functioning in the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Progressing in all vital areas will require spiritual hunger, faith, and lots of effort and practice. He is waiting for you to approach Him. Ask the Father [your Abba] to give His Spirit to speak into your reborn heart. Look for opportunities to lay hands on the sick, or be open and used in personal prophecy [exhortation] and other gifts of the Spirit. each day. Faithfully record the prophetic words and experiences you receive and be sure to share them with your brethren and elders. 

Conclusion

YHWH’s Word is in us! [Jeremiah 31:31-34; Ezekiel 36:27; Joel 2:28-32; Acts 1 and 2.]    Prayer and expect His Word for you and others to rise and and stand out as you come into your Bible reading and prayer time each day!

Therefore it is helpful to share your answers, insights, and learnings with your home 

study group. We recommend meeting regularly as a small cooperative group. This allows for healthy interaction and exchange. Such efforts militate against stagnation and awkwardness. Practice operating in the spiritual gifts recorded in 1 Corinthians 12--under the anointing of the Holy Spirit while among friendly, supportive peers. Allow for open participation in leading praise and worship. Give small altar cvs for healing and refreshment, and prophetic exhortations. The non-threatening Home Torah  and Glory School  will provide a favorable and encouraging environment in which to learn. You will do well.
