Hey! I’m only working on learning Hebrew. I use Strongs and Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew Definitions while studying the Tanakh and Strongs and Thayer’s Greek Definitions when studying the Apostolic Scriptures. I use E-Sword, which is a free bible study program and I love it. It is so easy to use and makes it a lot easier than hauling out the books and looking everything up. I also have learned some about Hebrew thought and what it means from The Ancient Hebrew Research Center and other studying. I have a long ways to go. The most important thing is to be crying out and seeking the Truth and He will lead you into it. None of us has a corner on it, but I am finding that a lot of what I have learned from religion is not it, but even there you have to be careful to sort out the truth from what isn’t, otherwise in reacting against religion, the truth that is there will often get rejected along with the error. That puts us in a precarious position. We have the scriptures and we have a relationship with the Author through His shed blood and He promises us to teach us through the Holy Spirit. The biggest problem I see in most of our pursuits, is not taking scripture and comparing it with the whole of scripture, and also not learning the culture and history in which it was given. A lot of it understood from our Western and Greek mindsets gets us in trouble. The foundation of it all(the Toray) is a Hebrew mindset and the rest of it can only really be understood from that mindset. A Greek mindset gets us in trouble and that is what we have in Western society. Father is working on giving me a Hebrew mindset but it is a process. I surely have not arrived, but I keep pressing towards the goal, the mark of the high calling in Messiah Yeshua.
Love and shalom,
Serena
