Do you place high value on Torah and the Covenant? How about wisdom? Isn’t it through wisdom that Yahweh has a relationship with us? What is the beginning of wisdom?

Is intelligence the same as wisdom?

What does wisdom accomplish exactly?

Continuing in the book of Proverbs, Rabbi Steve Berkson teaches from chapter 3 about how extremely critical it is for relationship, right relationship, and the mechanics of doing the commandments work together. The highest value must be placed on wisdom because it is a tree of life to those taking hold of her, and blessed are those who retain it. You must retain it. Rabbi Steve spends a bit of time on retaining wisdom by going to the Parable of the Sower in Matthew 13.

In this teaching you’ll hear what it means to be a good employee and adorn the Word of Elohim in your life.

What we’ve been dealing with in Proverbs is the other part of keeping covenant–the ‘why’ we do what He says to do (or not do). We know there is the “mechanical” part–the how, what, where, when, but we need to understand that the attitude of our heart works together with the mechanical to provide the “why” we are in covenant with Yahweh.

Is it necessary that you completely understand everything you have to do within this covenant?

Continuing the thought, The Role and Effect of Remembering What Yah Has Done on Keeping Covenant, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to more examples from scripture.

Going through a quick recap of last week’s teaching from Psalm 106:
How are we to approach Elohim Most High?
How does Yah consider the way we treat earthly leadership?
What is one of the roles of leadership?

Continuing in Psalm 106:
What is the dangerous mindset when reading scripture?
How can mainstream Christianity say that the law (Torah) was done away with when we see in scripture that we provoke or please Elohim by our deeds/works/actions?
Should we have any interaction with the World? To what degree?
What does “tickle the ears” mean?
The psalmist said, “He remembered His covenant…”–what covenant is El remembering? Abrahamic or Sinai?

Then Rabbi Steve wraps up this teaching by taking us to Psalm 111. There the psalmist says the works of Yah are righteous and those who love them search for them.

What is the Relational Framework? In what forms do we see and experience this currently?

There are some who teach that there was a problem with the old covenant and a new and improved covenant had to be created. Is that true? If the scriptures say that the covenant is perfect, what was the problem with the covenant?

What is not remembering the wonders Yah has done linked to? What does it lead to?

Rabbi Steve takes us into Psalm 105 where we are reminded of some of the wonders that Yah performed when he brought his people, Israel, out of Egypt and how that affects our keeping covenant today.

Rabbi Steve Berkson desires that you embrace the understanding that it’s all about your heart when it comes to keeping covenant with your Creator. It has to be in your heart to fear him, guard and do all of His commandments, to love Him and to serve Yahweh your Elohim.

This episode focuses on believing, trusting and counting on what Yahweh has said He will do. The Psalms help us by reminding us of all Yahweh has done and that He is trustworthy to accomplish all that He has promised His people down through time to this day.
