Exodus 1:1 - 6:1

Isaiah 27:6 - 28:13

2-1

This Parashah covers the enslavement of the Israelites and the commissioning of Mosheh. It's the start of the physical redemption of Israel from Egypt. The Lord will reveal himself in a different way to the Israelites.

This page includes Torah Portions from multiple years covered by Wisdom in Torah. Each year we covered the Torah from a different perspective so you can explore each Parashah from a different perspective and focus.

  • 2010 Portions: Focus on Messianic connections in the Parashah
  • ANET Portions: Focus on the ancient Near Eastern cultural context of the Parashah
  • Mitzvot Portions: Focus on explaining and exploring the commandments found in the Parashah (in progress)
  • 2015 Portions: Revisiting the Parashah looking at the ancient cultural context more in depth with additional areas that have been researched
  • Brit Portions: Focus on connecting the Brit Hadashah (New Testament) to the Parashah

I am a teacher of Scriptures, Torah follower, and believer in Messiah Yeshua. I have been given the opportunity to share the Word of God with many believers around the world. My work as a servant of the Most High God has allowed me to be a voice to spread the good news of the New Testament, unveiling its truth through context and the obedience to the Almighty through his Torah.

  1. Hi Ryan!

    Enjoyed your teaching!

    I thought the Chumash commentary on the Name was interesting and tied in with your comments from vs. 7 about how He experienced the sufferings with Israel and wasn’t just ‘aware’.

    ” I shall by with them in this sorrow as I shall be with them in other sorrows. ” To this Moses replied, “An evil in its own time is enough!” I.e., why should You imply to them that there will be future exiles; is it not enough that they suffer now in Egypt? Accepting Moses’ argument, God instructed him to say , ” I Shall Be (with them in this sorrow) has sent me to you” Rashi from Berachos 9b.

    Shalom!

  2. Jabel LuZ is Mt. of LUZ = LUZ is Almond or Mountain of the Almond. There wew almond trees/bushes from which Aaon’s rod was made. A burning bush/ree is likened to 7 branch or limb Menorah, which was decorated with Almonds, and connected to the bottom of the robe of the High Priest, a almond and a bell, an almond and a bell. In Revelation, we see that it is Yeshua standing behind the Menorah, He is the Shekinah, Glory of the Menorah, the oil, fire, gold, 7 spirits of Is 11; where is the menorah placed, at the right hand of Yehovah, THE BRANCH.

  3. Just finished listening to the first video and it is an excellent teaching on WHO are the Israelites! I must commend you, Ryan, for clarifying who exactly is ISRAEL, for the majority of teachings today separate the Jews from the Gentiles in reference to Israel, and I’ve ALWAYS felt it was racist ignorance to Scripture. I heard you say in your video that it IS racism! BRAVO! I agree with you: DNA has NOTHING to do with who is Israel, and everything to do with becoming part of the kin (Ezekiel 47:21-23) … what was that kinship term you used? And it would help in your teachings of Hebrew if you would present the words on a screen so we can also SEE what you are saying. DeVora Clark

  4. I know this may be off topic but I was wondering when the temple is rebuilt, not the one messiah builds but the one the antichrist declares himself God in; in that temple will the obligations of sacrifice offerings and presenting yourself in Jerusalem apply to all Israelites or will we just need to wait for messiahs temple? Will Father want us to offer to Him before yeshua’s temple?

  5. Shalom WilliamKloos,

    Brad does not have any specific study on the Hyksos, but he does mention them in several of his teachings. The one I believe he mentions them the most is in his “Tares among the Wheat” DVD.

    Shalom,
    Ryan

  6. You’re so hilarious, Rico! Like Amanda J in Canada, I was crying, and laughing, and I thought it was only me, until I read Amanda’s comment. You are such a genuine person.
    A very humble rabbi I know, blessed be his name, came to the revelation of Moshiach in his life, and was rejected by his family. Some folks noticed whenever he carried the scroll in his arms in a Messianic congregation, he would be teary and sad.
    We are blest to be on the narrow path that Y’shua traveled.
    Thank you, Rico.

  7. The day Rico mentioned the book of Yasher, I ordered it asap. I did study B. Scott’s Hykso’s kings also some years ago. So now, each portion -I’m reading Yasher along with it. Rico, I could not understand why the 4 or 5 chapters of war in Yasher until you connected these dots!!! The connection with the Torah, Yasher, and Brads’s teaching fell together as you masterfully taught. Also, I wondered what the deal was with Job all these years just like you, until now. Thankyou!!!

  8. Think you so much for obeying YHWH’s desires for you and teaching Torah. I am new to all this just starting to come out of traditional Christianity. While I am capable of reading Torah for myself, I would never understand the depth that I understood in this teaching- at least not for a long time. Your work is truly appreciated. I pray YHWH’s blessings on your life.

  9. Oh my, Rico, that was so beautiful. I laughed, I cried. You spoke so from your heart. The tears came when you spoke of holding the Torah in your arms and how you then understood that you are chosen by our Abba. I am so glad that you came to that truth because now I get the benefit of your teaching.

    So funny, you being in the sunshine while we are shivering here in North America. I so know what you are speaking of. My homeland is South Africa and now I live in Canada!

    May YHVH bless you richly as you continue to serve Him.

    Shivering in Canada 🙂

  10. Rico-thank you soooo much for your faithfulness and steadfastness to weekly teach the Torah to those of us who desire to listen and learn. We know what a responsibility and committment this means for you AND your precious family. We appreciate and value your ministry and hold your family up in our prayers. We pray YHWH’s protection and provision over your wife and sons as you minister His word as a faithful servant.
    With thankfulness of heart-Troy & Michelle
