Matthew 1 | Beth Immanuel Messianic Synagogue

Matthew 1

The Portentous Child

A significant teaching about the meaning of the book of Isaiah, King Hezekiah as the Messiah, and the true meaning of the prophecy of the virgin birth. Here's the real story behind some of the New Testament's best-known quotations of Isaiah. A real darama full of intrigue. Download the original class handout as a PDF below.

Birth of Yeshua at Sukkot

Why do we celebrate the birth of Yeshua on the first day of the festival of Sukkot, and why do we remember the day of the giving of his name on the eighth day of Sukkot? Listen to this teaching to learn about the literary evidence that points to early Jewish disciples of Yeshua celebrating the festival of Sukkot as the season of our Master's birth.

 

Look Down at the Stars

Avram had a unique perspective on the world that made him receptive to God's calling. Learn how this perspective on creation relates to the strange monthly blessing known as Kiddush Levanah.

Does the New Testament Cheat?

In Deuteronomy 13, the Torah warns against miracle workers who might entice Jews to worship other gods or to forsake the laws of the Torah. Reason 12 of the anti-missionary book Twenty-Six Reasons Jews Don’t Believe in Jesus claims that Jesus fits the description of just such an enticer.

Reason 13 argues that the New Testament misquotes, misuses, and even fabricates proof texts from the Old Testament. This lesson takes a look at one example: Matthew 1:23’s quotation of Isaiah 7:14: "Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel."
