Did you take a course in Judaism ? You are very knowledgeable on the subject. I'm learning so much! I never saw the word for Yeshuah written in Hebrew before as YHVH...at first I thought it was a typo. Pentateuch is the
first five books of the Hebrew Bible. I thought the Torah was the Hebrew Bible ?

I love the song El Shaddai, by Amy Grant

The Pentateuch is part of the Torah.

Over 30+ years ago I took some bible classes in college. Remember, I mentioned in a previous post? I mostly did it because the most eligible guys on campus were taking those classes. :) So that gives you a fair idea of how much I actually took in. Silly me. I missed a lot and retained little! I have never liked the idea of sitting back, taking another's word for something as important as my eternal salvation. I like finding it for myself. I have many books on the bible, some I have read and retained. Others not so much. However, now the Internet offers a world of studies to choose from for all of us. I really do enjoy discussing the Old Testament. As far as being knowledgable, I have no doubt that everyone here know as much and most likely a lot more than I. You come across as knowing a good deal yourself, in spite of your protest.

I just tell it like I see it, have learned it and feel it to be so. :) Obviously we here are not going to agree on 99.9%- as I said before, I'm not here to be won over, nor to persuade anyone of what I believe. Just tossing out stuff and sharing. :)
