This week, Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship does a somewhat different combination of the recent ‘double-parsha,’ and combines the end of the Book of Numbers (Masei, Numbers 33 through the end of the Book) with the first parsha, Debarim (Deuteronomy/Debarim 1 through 3:22) in the final Book of the Torah, of that same […]

News and commentary for Thursday, 31 July, 2025.

We live in times where the continual Battle between Good and Evil has arguably never been so obvious, or important. On every level – economic, military, political, social, and especially spiritual – we see it playing out. The front of that war that amounted to the “Deep State” versus what is left of the Constitutional […]

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. As he begins this lesson, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains that in the Christian world, it is just love and no Torah, and then asks the question, “What […]

Satan's Place in Heaven Let's start with our familiar text: Awake, O north wind, And come, wind of the south; Make my garden breathe out fragrance, Let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden And eat its choice fruits!” (So 4:16) This call to “Awake, O North” is thought to encompass three distinct calls recorded in 1. Jeremiah 31:7-8 (exiles of Israel), 2. Isaiah 41:25 (Messiah) 3. Gog and Magog (Ezek 38:2) Why are Gog and and Magog are so attracted to “the beloved city” and its inhabitants to want to destroy them at least twice in Biblical history? Last week's study of the yetzer ha-ra, or evil inclination, as it pertains to satan, was a key piece to the answer. If we can understand that the power of satan is strong against the holy things of this earth, that will explain it. It does need to the be strong to cultivate evil from the wicked. They are already his willing subjects. It is the holy who require him to exert his maximum strength. This sounds incredible, but Scripture reinforces this Jewish principle: “The evil inclination, as a general rule, gravitates toward holiness, and functions at its greatest strength where holiness resides...Evidently, it is because the forces of evil concentrate their greatest efforts on enticing the righteous, those people most deeply immersed in holiness.” (Midrash Rabbah to Shir HaShirim 5§4) WHAT? You're telling me that if I pursue holiness by obedience to the commandments that I make a bigger target? I put that in all caps because we always seem so surprised and indignant when bad things obstruct our pursuit of the Word. I'm not usually an all-caps writer. More than one question mark is just a bridge too far, though. I don't think I've ever had a peeve as a pet, but if I did want a pet peeve, that would probably be it. Multiple question marks instead of one. Only one per interrogative. Please. So, yes, Scripture suggests that holiness acts like a magnet to evil. Even more perplexing, sometimes the Ruach HaKodesh leads us to the place or situation to be be tested in the Word. Here are a few examples of the principle: “I was watching Satan fall from Heaven” (Lk 10:18) “...there was no longer a place found for them in heaven.” (Re 12:7-9) “And when the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.” (Re 12:13; 16, 17) “the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.” (Job 1:6) e. “...a slave-girl having a spirit of divination met us, who was bringing her masters much profit by fortune-telling. Following after Paul and us, she kept crying out, saying, ‘These men are bond-servants of the Most High God, who are proclaiming to you the way of salvation.’ She continued doing this for many days.” Acts 16:16-18; 8:9-18) f. “Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.” (Mt 4:1) When Scripture identifies the intense effort to sabotage the righteous ones and the Holy City Jerusalem, then it is quite evident that the dragon’s desire to dominate the heavens is still strong even when bound! For that reason, the satan, the evil imagination, must be bound in our daily lives. It does not go away...it is bound. Disciplined. Exercised authority over. How do the pre and post millennial battles with Gog of Magog (the wicked among the nations, “Amalek”) relate to the texts of Shir HaShirim 4:16 and 5:1? Both attack the Garden-ruled Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Song of Songs 4:16 invites the awakening of the Anointed One to execute the process of the resurrection of the righteous dead and the purging of the wicked, including the satan. He will be bound and tossed into the Abyss, which will be sealed over him for 1,000 years. That's important. If he is only bound or imprisoned by the Holy One, then we cannot try to kill it. We must learn how to discipline and bind it with "It is written." Just quoting "It is written," however, is not enough. It...

On today’s show, Episode 181, this is the SECOND PART of a discussion that I had with Professional Mechanical Engineer Andrew Hoy about the biblical Hebrew Ohel Mo’ed – the tabernacle or the tent of Elohim (“God”) as described in the Bible in Exodus Chapters 26 and 27. As a professional mechanical engineer and the […]

Part 3 is a followup to parts 1 and 2 since 'nothing happened yet. Plus some interesting things to note about the Septuagint version of Daniel 9:25-27. Is the dire straits SOME YEAR a possible time to watch for events surrounding the rebuilding of Jerusalem to begin especially since the dire straits always follow the 2nd counting of the Omer. In today's followup we just look at interesting possibilities but it is always a great time to be 'watching' for the fulfillment of biblical prophecies so that we are not 'caught unawares'.

This week’s annual cycle Torah reading is parsha “Pinchas,” Numbers 30:2 through chapter 32) and – in part at least – it wraps up one of the mysteries in the Torah, how can a people so blessed of YHVH fall so quickly into idolatry, and beset by ‘plague?’ But there is far more, and the […]

Mark Call takes a look at one what may be one of the most important weeks of real news the nation’s history, ending Saturday, 26 July, 2025.

A good title for today’s show is easy: “Let’s Talk Treason!”

It is now not only obvious, but eminently provable that Obama and the Deep State “intel community” committed treason. The only remaining question is whether or not the concept of “justice,” and the Rule of Law, is even a factor in AmeriKa-with-a-K. But the related question that host Mark Call asks today is, do we […]
