38 – Torah Club: Unrolling the Scroll

The Old Testament. You’ve heard that it’s irrelevant; you’ve heard that it was superseded by the New Testament; you’ve heard that none of its laws and rituals are relevant today. But what if I told you that the Old Testament, properly understood, is the key to the New Testament and that it reveals God’s plan, his character, and his will to all of his people today? First Fruits of Zion has a small-group Bible study program designed to help you understand the first five books of the Bible on their own terms. It’s called Torah Club, and we have the author, D. Thomas Lancaster, and the director of Torah Club, Damian Eisner, here to tell us all about it. – Episode Highlights – What is Torah Club? What makes Torah Club different from every other small-group Bible study? Is the Old Testament even relevant any longer for Christians in the twenty-first century? How does knowing the historical context of first-century Judaism help disciples of Jesus? Understanding the Jewish people is critical to understanding the Jewish Scriptures. All about the Jewish annual reading cycle. Join us with a year of learning through the first five books of the Bible with “Unrolling the Scroll.” How to start a Torah Club or join a Torah Club? How will Torah Club help make the world a better place? What can a student hope to take away from a year of study from Genesis through Deuteronomy? – Related Resources – First Fruits of Zion https://ffoz.org Torah Club https://ffoz.org/torahclub HaYesod https://ffoz.org/hayesod Messiah Podcast is a production of First Fruits of Zion (ffoz.org) in conjunction with Messiah Magazine.
