      <title>Shavuot Special</title>
      <description><![CDATA[As this past week was without a Torah Portion, we instead studied the passages on Shavuot! We discussed the connection between Shavuot and Pentecost, the differences between Greek and Hebraic thought, and how a cohesive life depends upon a cohesive world view. We run through the "10 Commandments," how there are technically more then the 10 we generally think of, and how it relates to the 613 mitzvot also given to Moses by Elohim.

      <title>Parashat Bamidbar</title>
      <description><![CDATA[This week we discuss Parashat Bamidbar (Numbers 1:1 - 4:20), starting off with a famous debate between the Pharisees and the Sadducees about when to start counting the Omer after Passover, which determines when Shavuot actually begins. We also discuss some Hebraic linguistics and the importance of being more then just a number, and how this relates to this weeks portion. Finally we end this weeks addition of Torah Topics with an intriguing question about the Prophets, and the favor God bestows upon His people when they follow after His will and His Torah.

      <description><![CDATA[In today's installment of Torah Topics we discuss Parashat Emor (Meaning "Speak," Leviticus 21:1 - 24:23). We open with a listing of the  Moadim as it is listed in the portion, how sin can defile God's holy temple, different requirements for the Levitical priesthood, and even touched a little on the Church and the scattered Kingdom of Ephraim (Israel) as noted in John 11:49-52. We also talk a little on the origins of the Feasts of Trumpets.

      <title>Parashat Tazria - M&apos;tzora</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this weeks installment of Torah Topics, we cover the biblical concept of leprosy as dealt with in this weeks double portion Tazria - M'tzoran (Leviticus 12:1 - 13:59; & Leviticus 14:1 - 15:33). We dive a little into connections between both Old and New Testaments, several modern perspectives taught within the church which are simply illogical in regards to God's Law, and even a wee bit of history with the two Kingdoms of Israel and Judah!

      <description><![CDATA[This week we start the podcast off discussing the coming Feast of Passover and Unleavened Bread. What is considered leaven? How important or necessary is following a Haggadah? Can we form our own personal Haggadah based more in Scripture rather then Tradition? We then run through the Torah portion of the week Parashat Tzav (Leviticus 6:1-8:36). Enjoy!

      <title>The Way - Living Out God&apos;s Law</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Today we open the discussion on Parshat Mishpatim (Exodus 21:1–24:18). Here God lays out many of the 613 laws He sets forth for His people to live by. We discuss the disconnect between what the Law is vs. how it is portrayed by today's modern church cultural perspective. In the New Testament, we are admonished not to sin, and also that sin is the transgression of the Law. How are we to stay away from something that we know nothing about?
