An Anchor, when properly placed, holds a marine vessel securely in one location and keeps it from drifting away from the captain’s desired position. Under the teachings of the Holy Spirit of God, what in Hebrew is called the Torah (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy), the Five books of Moses serve us as an Anchor to keep us from drifting away from God's good, acceptable and perfect will for our lives.
(Romans 1:1-17; Romans 5:1-2; Romans 8:1-14; Romans 12:1-8; Jeremiah 31:31-34; Hebrews 8:1-13
At the Anchor, we have come to the understanding, that the daily study of these books, along with the rest of the Scriptures, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit is the way God promised and systematically does place His Word (the oracles of God – see Romans 3:1) in our minds according to the covenant promise. As we go about practicing what He says for us to do, and not practicing what he says for us not to do, these same words become attached or grafted into our hearts. We discover that as we hear and practice doing what we hear [The shema of God - Mark 28:28:34, James 1:21-25), He becomes more and more pleased with what He does through us. Therefore to Him (יהוה) , LORD, YHVH, Yahveh, Jehovah be all the glory for the things He is doing.) As followers of Jesus the Christ (Hebrew – Yehshua Ha Mashiach), our desire is to regard the Law of God (the Torah) in the same way Jesus (Yeshua) did; when he was here. And learn to teach the same specific instructions that his disciples received from him. To continue to practice the same works that he taught them, until he returns. [I John 2:1-16] His disciples were commanded to go into all nations and make disciples. Jesus/Yeshua did not say go into all the nations and make Christians and build churches. Jesus/Yehshua said; "go and make Disciples, teaching them to do what so ever I have commanded you to do." (Mitzvot = "good works")

Exodus 1:1-22 (NASB)1
1 Now these are the names of the sons of Israel who came to Egypt with Jacob; they came each one with his household: 2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah; 3 Issachar, Zebulun and Benjamin; 4 Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher. 5 All the persons who came from the loins of Jacob were seventy in number, but Joseph was already in Egypt. 6 Joseph died, and all his brothers and all that generation. 7 But the sons of Israel were fruitful and increased greatly, and multiplied, and became exceedingly mighty, so that the land was filled with them. 8 Now a new king arose over Egypt, who did not know Joseph. 9 He said to his people, "Behold, the people of the sons of Israel are more and mightier than we. 10 "Come, let us deal wisely with them, or else they will multiply and in the event of war, they will also join themselves to those who hate us, and fight against us and depart from the land." 11 So they appointed taskmasters over them to afflict them with hard labor. And they built for Pharaoh storage cities, Pithom and Raamses. 12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out, so that they were in dread of the sons of Israel. 13 The Egyptians compelled the sons of Israel to labor rigorously; 14 and they made their lives bitter with hard labor in mortar and bricks and at all kinds of labor in the field, all their labors which they rigorously imposed on them. 15 Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was named Shiphrah and the other was named Puah; 16 and he said, "When you are helping the Hebrew women to give birth and see them upon the birthstool, if it is a son, then you shall put him to death; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live." 17 But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had commanded them, but let the boys live. 18 So the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said to them, "Why have you done this thing, and let the boys live?" 19 The midwives said to Pharaoh, "Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife can get to them." 20 So God was good to the midwives, and the people multiplied, and became very mighty. 21 Because the midwives feared God, He established households for them. 22 Then Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, "Every son who is born you are to cast into the Nile, and every daughter you are to keep alive."
Greetings in Messiah Yeshua and welcome to a new week and a new book of Torah! We’ve left the end of an era but we’ve passed over into the beginning of a new one. We enter in with some basic boot camp reminders. This second book of Torah is called Exodus which isn’t Hebrew but is taken from the Greek translation of the rabbinical name of the book, Sefer Yetriat Mitzraim, which is “the book of the going out from Egypt”. In Hebrew the book is not called Exodus, but Shemot because of the custom followed of naming the book according to a very important word in the opening sentences.
1 Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob. Exodus 1:1
A typical winter day has dawned this morning and it appears that the sun is quite hidden behind heavy cloud cover. It's a tad milder out there because we had about four inches of snow yesterday morning. Our daughter, Laura, her husband and our granddaughter are off on a road trip to New York City this morning and Richard has just driven in with Laura's jeep. As usual, all the homestead dogs go ballistic when they see one of the vehicles arrive and I wonder if they'll be confused when it's Richard that jumps out of that jeep instead of Laura! She's coming off a night shift and they'll be driving in Steve's truck, so Richard met them in town and drove her jeep home for the week. I don't know what all they'll be doing in New York, but it's a gift for Paige, our granddaughter. I'm excited to see them go. We had many family vacations to Florida, California and South Texas, and then there were the impromptu road trips we would take to Upper Peninsula Michigan for a weekend that inspired the wanderlust in our two daughters. They would come through the door after school and we'd tell them to pack a bag, we're leaving for Michigan and the joyful surprise was evident on their little faces. Now, they go on the traveling adventures and we stay home and enjoy all the pictures they send home!
All these memories of previous family vacations to the California coast are somewhat bittersweet, following the destruction and devastation that's taken over Los Angeles the past five days. That fire started in the Pacific Palisades and has now spread to all our old familiar places in L.A. This is absolutely surreal. Texas and Georgia have a cold snap. Central USA still labors under so much rubble in North Carolina and Tennessee from Helene and I start to wonder, what's next? I was amazed at the trees that were left between the charred rubble of homes in the fires when I spoke about it on Friday. There may be a possible explanation for that. Someone posted this little blurb on social media about the lithium batteries in those “smart” meters.
"Smart meters have lithium ion batteries. When these batteries catch fire they have what's called "thermal runaway" where they will go from 140 degrees Fahrenheit to 6000 degrees Fahrenheit in just a few seconds. The smart meter is connected to the copper wiring of the home which is designed to travel electricity due to its conductivity. Along with being conductive, the copper wires are also great at heat transfer via convection. So when these supposed forest fires hit neighborhoods but burn more homes than trees, the culprit in the unusual fire forensics looks to be the lithium ion batteries. It's no wonder these homes are burned to dust while trees are standing within feet of the houses. These homes are burning from the inside out, literally. The copper wires in the homes are insulated and carrying extreme heat to every corner of the home..."
Me thinks I want to take a rabbit trail down the street where I can learn more about these lithium batteries. They don't seem to be very safe in these new electric vehicles that the governments and environmentalists are pushing. I've heard that these things have spontaneously combusted in flood waters and also just sitting in the family carport. The batteries that fuel electric vehicles are much larger than those teeny ones used in small devices, so with the increase in size, the danger is also increased. This “thermal runaway” was also a phrase in several sites I surfed on just to take a quick little bunny hop down the rabbit trail this morning. So, perhaps that could be one reason why these houses burned literally to the ground while a tree within a few yards of the house survived. My next question is if L.A. Installed smart meters on all those lovely homes? But that will have to wait until Torah is done for the day.
“5 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls...” who made the journey to Egypt in the great famine, to be with Yosef. (Different names according to language, but same people.) I always misread this statement in the past thinking that there was exactly seventy who entered Goshen but really, it was only seventy actual “descendants” of Jacob that made the trip. There were others who came with them, wives, in-laws, and servants. So I suspect that it was as much a “mixt multitude” that entered Egypt as it was that left it later. The fact is that the twelve tribes were there and together (or more if you consider the two sons of Joseph as two instead of one tribe representing Joseph). The basic foundational unit of Israel came to Egypt and left Egypt, as we’ll see in this book, which I fondly describe as “The X Files”.
Having a side interest in genealogy has certainly enriched my foray into Scripture when I read:
6 And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation. 7 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them. Exodus 1:6-7.
The generations of Israel changed as did the generations of the Egyptian rulers also and when the Israelites hit a new peak in population, a new man rose to power who “did not know” Joseph, or perhaps simply “didn’t care a fig” for Joseph or his connections. The new ruler looked at these Israelites as potential enemies because of their population. His first strategy brought them under slavery, and they labored. But the more they were driven the more they grew!
9 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we: 10 Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land. 11 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses. 12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the children of Israel. Exodus 1:9-12.
The more that the Israeli population grew, the fear of them grew upon that Pharaoh. Indeed, he and his main men were 'grieved' because of what they thought was the 'menace' of Israel. They couldn't work them to death! They thrived on hard work! There had to be a plan B that went into operation.
15 And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah: 16 And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live. Exodus 1:15-16.
Pharaoh's solution to the Israeli 'menace' was to use “population control”. Kill the male babies born to those Israelites but let the females live as they cannot procreate by themselves. Here we see one of the earliest practice of 'population control'. We see this in our own era, since the decade of the sixties. The first purpose of this control of live births globally was presented as a cure for the general threat to “environment and resources”. But in recent years, it's now a solution for the bogus threat of “world climate change”. While half of the “experts” say, population is the key, the other half are saying that what's needed is better education for women, and adopting cleaner energy. As L.A. Marzulli would say, “You can see the move, counter move, then another move and another counter move, in operation”. The problem for Pharaoh? Israel population is way too big for Egypt's comfort levels!
Move: Enslave them and work them to death!
Counter Move: The God of Israel blesses and they flourish!
Move: They must be cut back! Kill the male infants!
Counter Move: The God of Israel provides midwives who are faithful to God over Pharaoh!
I can imagine the attitude of those faithful midwives. “Kill our male infants? I DON'T THINK SO! WE WILL DO NO SUCH THING!” And God blessed them because they were able to sort of “fly under the radar” all the males born because they said that by the time they got to the birth, it was too late to dispatch the wee babes. Then, after all that failed the decree went out from Pharaoh that “all his people” should throw the males born into the Nile River. John Gill states:
“And Pharaoh charged all his people, Finding he could not carry his point with the midwives, he gave a general order to all his people everywhere:
saying, every son that is born ye shall cast into the river; the river Nile; not every son born in his kingdom, for this would have ruined it in time; but that was born to the Jews, as the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan; and it is added in the Septuagint version, to the Hebrews... ”
If the Hebrew midwives were going to make Pharaoh a fool, then his own people would be valued as snitches. The midwives were not to be trusted and any Egyptian that heard or heard of a Hebrew infant that was male was to toss him into the Nile River. Charles Ellicott, in his commentary brings up the fact that the Nile itself was considered a god and they were instructed to desecrate it with offerings of infants?
“The condemnation to death of all male Hebrew children by Pharaoh is thus in no respect improbable. On the other hand, the mode of the death presents difficulties. For, first, the Nile was viewed as a god; and to fill it with corpses would, one might have supposed, have been regarded as a pollution. Secondly, the Nile water was the only water drunk; and sanitary considerations might thus have been expected to have prevented the edict. Perhaps, however, the children were viewed as offerings to the Nile, or to Savak, the crocodile headed god, of whom each crocodile was an emblem. At any rate, as the Nile swarmed with crocodiles throughout its whole course, the bodies were tolerably sure to be devoured before they became putrescent.”
Having traveled to areas where alligators are predatory, I can readily believe that their cousins, the crocodiles, would readily swipe the wee bodies into oblivion from out of the water. So, I suppose, in effect, these Hebrew males may well have been intended to be sacrifices to the crocodile god of the Nile, and not the Nile itself. This act is just as despicable as all the types of procedures that murder infants in the womb in our own era, for the sake of the god of convenience.
And once again the move and the countermove that proves to be the spoiler today. And the rest is ‘give all the glory to God’ history.
Move: Throw all males into the Nile River!
Counter Move: A woman of Israel puts her son ‘in the river’.

2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
2
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
