Hallel Fellowship

God’s people to let worship shape everyday life. In this week's reading in the three-year Torah cycle, Leviticus 24, we see the continually burning menorah in ancient Israel’s Tabernacle, its bread of the Presence, and reverence for God’s Name. They point to lives centered on — and transformed by — His holiness. Parallel passage Hosea 14 shows that genuine repentance brings restoration, while another parallel, James 3, reminds us that transformed hearts produce wise, peaceable speech. Together, these passages point to Messiah’s work of renewing His covenant people.

Discover why Leviticus 21, Ezekiel 44, John 4 and 6, and 1Corinthians 10–11 focus on the “table of the LORD” and what that means for us today. We explore what it really means that ancient Israel’s priests handle the “food of God,” why Yeshua (Jesus) says His food is to do the Father’s will, and how our approach today to Heaven’s altar reveals whether we’re truly drawing near — or just dropping off a gift and walking away.

This Wednesday night is the start of Tisha b’Av, an important day of mourning the destruction of the First and Second Temples and other Jewish tragedies. It's traditionally observed with fasting and prayer. For believers in Yeshua (Jesus) as the Messiah and the “Word (of God) made flesh,” He brings to fullness the pattern of the Temple’s role as a pattern of Heaven. Believers are “temples of the Holy Spirit” and “living stones,” forming a spiritual house. Prophetic hopes of Temple restoration and Ezekiel’s ark-less temple point to Yeshua, culminating in the New Jerusalem, where God and the Lamb are the temple. Here's a primer and Bible readings for the day.

What’s the point of the Torah’s stark language about nakedness, sexuality and child-sacrificing pagan worship in Leviticus 18? It’s really about something deeper: exploiting the vulnerable, crossing God-given boundaries and confusing shame with holiness. Tracing themes from Leviticus, Genesis, 1Corinthians, Hebrews and James, we explore how “naked and not ashamed” became fearful hiding — and how Messiah becomes our true covering. Discover how sanctification, judgment and grace meet in a God who refuses to leave us in our damage.
