Mishpatim | An Eye for an Eye. Literally???

FEB 9, 202412 MIN

Description

Why do the vast majority of Yeshua’s followers see the Torah—God’s Law—in a negative light? Maybe it’s due to themes like we have in our current Torah portion. Themes that seem completely unrelatable to lives that are so far removed from our world and worldview. For instance, this week’s reading begins with the laws of slavery. SLAVERY? Are you joking? Why do we need laws about slavery? Is the Torah promoting slavery??? And what’s up with this whole “eye for an eye” thing? Didn’t Yeshua overturn that in the Sermon on the Mount? Well, if you’ve ever been confused by things like this, then you won’t want to miss this week’s 5 Minute Torah.
