Every week in Jewish synagogues the world over, a selection of a few chapters is considered from the Torah (the Pentateuch or the Law of Moses). The discipline of reading the parashah or Torah portion on Shabbat (the Sabbath) has helped maintain the cohesion of the Jewish people for millennia. As Messianic congregations have been formed, this tradition is something which has helped enliven the Bible readings and studies of those, Jewish Believers and evangelical Christians embracing their Hebraic Roots alike, who look to Moses' Teaching to tell us something about the relationship each of us is to have with Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), and how we are to grow in holiness. What are the benefits of consistently examining the Torah? What old lessons might need to be re-learned every year, and what are some new lessons for God's people to be considering? How will the Torah form a major part of the emerging Messianic movement's understanding of the mission of God, and with what He wants to do with His people? Will we really be able to understand the admonition, "The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our sons forever, that we may observe all the words of this law?" (Deuteronomy 29:29)? TorahScope, Volume III is a third, special year's compilation of insightful, reflective commentaries on the weekly Torah readings, gleaned from the studies and notes of William Mark Huey. Written from a Messianic perspective, this volume shares his conviction that a Believer's life and walk with the Messiah Yeshua can be viewed through the grid and lens of consistent Torah study. Volume III is unique as it specifically focuses readers on the theme of faith, how figures in the Torah interacted with God in either a faithful or faithless manner, and how their example carries through to the Tanakh and Apostolic Writings.

The Mishnah tractate Pirkei Avot or Sayings of the Fathers is a compilation of wise sayings, proverbs, and anecdotes dating from the Third Century B.C.E.-Third Century C.E., forming much of the basis of ancient Jewish ethics. Many important parallels can be seen between remarks made in the Pirkei Avot and the wisdom sayings or teachings of Yeshua the Messiah, James the Just, and the Apostles Peter and Paul. In the Jewish community today, the Pirkei Avot are traditionally read and considered during the seven weeks between the festivals of Passover and Shavuot. Sayings of the Fathers: A Messianic Perspective on Pirkei Avot takes readers through not just one, but two years of fifty-day reflections, and six bonus days, of some of the ancient wisdom seen in this valuable text. You will not only be introduced to some of the key views present in the Apostolic period, but also be able to weigh the value that the Jewish Sages have in your own personal study and reflection upon the Holy Scriptures. Be prepared to join into an ancient discussion that spans the ages as you reflect on these words. Be blessed as your faith and outlook on the world are enriched, and you have more to take to your Heavenly Father in prayer

The traditional Jewish discipline of reading the weekly Torah portion every week, is something that today's Messianic Believers surely benefit from-be they Jewish Believers who are discovering more about their Messiah from Moses' Teaching, or evangelical Christians embracing their Hebraic Roots in a very real and tangible way. However, there can be a distinct tendency, at times, for the Messianic community to focus so much on the Torah or Law of Moses, that the continued revelation of God in the rest of the Holy Scriptures is overlooked. Messianic Believers have the profound responsibility to recognize that as important as the Torah is to people of faith, that the Torah's goal or consummation is Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), as our mortal inability to fully keep the commandments of the Law is to reveal our need for a Divine Savior (Romans 10:4; Galatians 3:24). How can today's Messianic Believers really learn to appreciate the role that the Torah and the good news of Yeshua's salvation play together, as the Lord molds us into an effective group that can fully accomplish His purposes? As many turn to the weekly Torah and Haftarah readings every week, Messianics have often associated a selection of key passages from the Apostolic Scriptures or New Testament. These either build on a theme detected within the various parashot, or they are intended to add additional details for consideration. TorahScope Apostolic Scriptures Reflections is a compilation of insightful, encouraging messages that incorporates information from the weekly Torah and Haftarah portions, connecting it to key messages in the New Testament, gleaned from the studies and notes of William Mark Huey. It is the author's intent that we can all allow the great tapestry of God's Word to mold us into men and women who can understand the full importance of being disciples of the Messiah of Israel.

Written from a Messianic perspective, this volume shares his conviction that a Believer's life and walk with the Messiah Yeshua can be viewed through the grid and lens of consistent Torah study. It provides contemporary examples of the relevancy of the Torah to all Messiah followers, and how we are to all be conformed to His image (Romans 8:29).

In Jewish synagogues and Messianic congregations all over the globe, the weekly Torah portion is read on the Sabbath. Traditionally associated with the parashah is a small selection called the Haftarah, meaning "conclusion." This is usually a segment from the Prophets or Writings of the Tanakh (Old Testament) which bears a thematic connection to the Torah reading. While the custom of considering a prophetic section arose during tenuous times in Jewish history when the people were forbidden to study from the Law of Moses, it was something firmly in place during the time of Yeshua (Jesus) and the Apostles (Luke 4:16-17; Acts 13:15). Commonly in some parts of today's Messianic community, we tend to forget that the Torah makes up the foundation of the Holy Writ, but by no means is the whole of the Holy Writ. Messianic Believers have a great blessing to consider the associated text from the Haftarah every week along with their Torah studies, from which they can derive additional spiritual insight and blessings. In consulting both the Torah and Haftarah selections together, then we can all see the great and mighty acts of God throughout Biblical history and His interactions with Israel. We can be especially more in tune with what it means to see Yeshua "in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms" (Luke 24:44). TorahScope Haftarah Exhortations is a compilation of insightful, encouraging messages that take into consideration the weekly Torah and Haftarah portions, gleaned from the studies and notes of William Mark Huey. It is the author's sincere hope and desire that his thoughts will give you key instructions in how we can be fully used by our Heavenly Father as faithful vessels for His service today.

The seven-week period between the Biblical festivals of Passover and Shavuot, or Pentecost, is the season of Counting the Omer (Leviticus 23:10-16; Deuteronomy 16:9-11). Originally in the Tabernacle and Temple of Ancient Israel, the priests were to present special offerings before the Lord each day for the fifty-day count. Psalm 67 was among the hymns recited and employed to offer praise and adoration to Him. Since the destruction of the Second Temple, various Jewish traditions have been developed in order to make the seven-week or fifty-day Omer Count a very special time to focus on God, His blessings, and the important themes of Shavuot. Today's Messianic Believers can surely benefit from any discipline where God's people can review various Scripture passages for a set time, and allow themselves to be prepared for great things when the Feast of Weeks is finally observed. The awesome wisdom and goodness of our Heavenly Father are things definitely worthy of exploration and contemplation, via a reflection upon the themes of various Psalms, and how they relate to our understanding of Shavuot and our faith in Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ). Counting the Omer: A Daily Devotional Toward Shavuot is a compilation of insightful, encouraging messages that examines a passage from Psalms every day for the fifty-day Omer Count season. Each exhortation is intended to prepare you for the commemoration of Shavuot (Pentecost) at the end of seven weeks. Gleaned from the studies and notes of William Mark Huey, it is the author's intent that God's people can not only be energized to Count the Omer themselves--but be specially prepared to experience His presence when the Feast of Weeks finally arrives
