We are not always permited our hearts desires and such was the case for Moses. He desired to enter the Promised Land aside the people he had led in the 40 years since leaving Egypt.
Deuteronomy 3:23-25
And I besought El-Yahuah at that time, saying. O Adonai Yahuah, you have begun to show your servant your greatness and your mighty hand: for what EL is there in the heavens or in the earth, than can do according to your works and according to your might. I pray you, let me go over, and see the good land that is beyond the Yarden (Jorden), that goodly mountain and Lebanon.
BUT - Moses was heartbroken Yahuah would not let him enter the land; only allowing him to view the land at a distance. Despite Moses’ disappointment, he did not turn his back on Adonai Yahuah or the people that Yah had put in his charge. Join us as John Barr & Jesse Knock step in for Dr. Stephen Pidgeon and we fellowship with the Cepher Shabbat Community in this scripture study of the Torah Portion, including the Haftorah (Prophets) and the Besorah (Gospels).
In America, people have risen to power who have particular scorn for Yah and the teachings of scripture. Some groups have openly booed the Creator en masse and have openly boasted of their sacrifice of infants in the public square. In spite of the desires of most Americans, those who hated Yah seized the reigns of authority in the West. They have pushed for a New World Order, a Great Reset, and worldwide controls under their doctrines of sorcery and death.
Now we see, they have set a snare for themselves. Today's study will look at the fate of those who have perpetrated this great crime against humanity pursuant to scripture. It ain't pretty. The snare has been set by those who sought to overthrow Yah's kingdom in this world. Its tension has been pushed into place. The rust of its teeth can be seen. The plate of its spring is set. And now those who set it can see it - and those who can see it now know that they have placed themselves irretrievably in its bite.
The snare is now set to spring shut and those about to be caught up in it know it. The terror is rising among them with the knowledge that now, judgment awaits. It is coming. It is certain.
Today's world is overwhelmed with trouble; but a unique promise is given to the Elect - a promise of hope and not fear; the promise of life and not death. It is for you to know these things and to find solace in the word of Yahuah.
The promise made that there would be an Elect is the oldest promise known to man - a promise made before the flood of Noach, and promise made demonstrable in the lives of the prophets, the covenant given to Avraham, which would become and oath to Yitschaq, a law to Ya'aqov, and an everlasting covenant to the house of Yashar'el.
Speak ye now of the glory of Yahuah! His hand is upon the earth with judgment and righteousness in his wings. The hour of the wicked has arrived and they shall not stand in the presence of the righteous king!
Shall the wheat be plucked up with the tare? This shall not be so. The tares shall be plucked up and bundled and cast into the fire. The angel has spoken and the sickle has been thrust into the earth that the harvest be made complete.
But how fares the Elect? Let's dig in and find out!
Behold, says Yahuah, I will bring plagues upon the world; the sword, famine, death, and destruction. For wickedness has exceedingly polluted the whole earth, and their hurtful works are fulfilled.
Therefore, says Yahuah, I will hold my tongue no more as touching their wickedness, which they profanely commit, neither will I suffer them in those things, in which they wickedly exercise themselves: Behold, the innocent and righteous blood cries unto me, and the souls of the just complain continually.
And therefore, says Yahuah, I will surely avenge them; and receive unto me all the innocent blood from among them. 4 Ezra 15:5-9
Woe to the world and them that dwell therein! For the sword and their destruction draws nigh; and one people shall stand and fight against another, and swords in their hands, For there shall be sedition among men, and invading one another; they shall not regard their kings nor princes, and the course of their actions shall stand in their power. 4 Ezra 15:14-16
The time has arrived in this world for the judgment pronounced by prophets. Destruction comes in an immeasurable breadth. Who can stand?
Join us as we dig into these scriptures and discuss the world around us even today.
In biblical prophecy, two names stand out as signposts for the Apocalypse - Gog and Magog. Students of prophecy firmly believe that Gog and Magog means Russia (Tobolsk and Moscow being the same as Tubal and Meshek!), but with the publication of the Cepher Yashar (the Book of Jasher) information that has been otherwise withheld from the public comes to light as to the location of the House of Yapheth -- and that information changes everything!
We know Yapheth to the lands to the north, but Yashar tells us exactly which lands . . . and, as students of the Dig might well imagine, current archeological finds and the rigorous unveiling of history, now corroborate a new narrative, even a new understanding. Where did the tribes of Yashar actually land? Yashar tells us a narrative that is revealing, yet, in all of its disclosure, Magog, the son of Yapheth, goes without mention!
Fear not, because an ancient historian - one Geoffrey of Monmouth - tells us the rest of the story; a story not only told over and over again through the centuries, but one that is celebrated even today. Gog and Magog will surprise you, and one particular passage in Ezekiel makes it clear that Gog and Magog are not who we have always thought they were.
Join us on the Dig with pick-axe and shovel in hand, as we sort through the record to see if we can make sense of the cryptic prophecy found in Yekhezq'el (Ezekiel) 38 and 39.
When we speak of the teaching of scripture, many doctrines can be readily explained in both the Old and New Testaments. In fact, the Cepher Chazon (Book of Revelation) is a running set of citations from the Old Testament on a verse by verse basis - sometimes capturing whole chapters in a single verse.
Yet one doctrine emerges from the New Testament that is simply not found in the Old Testament, and two doctrines which emerge outside the edges of the Tanakh. It is of some interest that the phrase "Holy Spirit" appears only three times in the KJV version of the Old Testament - once in the Psalms, and twice in Isaiah (Yesha'yahu); yet the very idea suffered rejection by the Sadducees. The idea of "angels" as opposed to simple messengers was also a concept rejected by the Sadducees.
However, the doctrine that simply does not appear at all in the Old Testament is the doctrine concerning the resurrection. What exactly is this claim? How was it established? What does it mean for us?
Let's see if we can dig into the "why" of this question tonight on the Dig.

The Pledge of Allegiance is a curious oath - a pledge to a flag, rather than to a nation, rather than to a form of government, rather than to a society; instead we have a pledge of allegiance to the flag of a nation "under God". Unfortunately, this god is not named. Rather it is assumed that we all know the God that is being discussed. However, the ambiguity has left a lot of room for those who worship an unknown god to make the pledge with zeal, and yet continue on their path toward the god they serve.
When we read scripture we see a call to worship only the true Elohiym of Avraham, Yitschaq, and Ya'aqov, and to have no others before Yahuah. But there most assuredly is a god before Yahuah in the United States, and we are soon going to prove this proposition. Stay with us on the Dig as we explore this proposition.
Ah yes - the Raqia! There is and remains a great controversy in the faith community - a controversy that begins with a rejection of the dogma of science as a result of the lies that have been told to us over the years by a group who has always sought to rule over us. Lies have consequences - particularly when they are discovered. And although the truth can be repressed, censored, stricken, deleted, and even burned, its essence remains and comes back to haunt the liar in this life or the next.
The truth exists and it prevails, even when it goes unnoticed for years, decades, centuries - even a millennia. Suddenly, it is discovered and revealed, and the liar is made known a liar for the whole world to see. "Trust the science" is both a demand and a plea made by people who are no longer deserving of trust in the marketplace of ideas; from the claim that New York would be under 15 feet of water by 2010, to the claim being made even now that "it's safe and effective" in the face of VAERS numbers exceeding 32,000, science as expressed in our current society cannot be trusted or believed and it will take decades to restore its credibility.
Yet, because science has made duplicitous claims and erected false dogmas on the idea that "the science is settled" on the psychopathy of certain politicians does not mean that common understandings which preceded these modern prevaricators is false.
Many people have taken to the idea that by literalizing scripture in the English language they can discover the "truth" about the shape of the earth. Literalizing scripture, however, can be dangerous, particularly when it comes to the circumcision of the heart! Sometimes, the English is an over-simplistic restatement of a much deeper word found in the Ivriyt - the language in which the scripture was initially conceived.
Raqia is just such a word. Join us this Thursday evening and Jon Hallam, Jessica Knock, and John Barr join together to dig into this topic, and as we unearth the firmament.
The Ancient World speaks to us of an ancient priesthood, and scriptures abound with the discussion of their practices, ordinances, dress, and ways. But when we look from the modern epoch, we find many different classes. We presume that the Levites are the priests, yet not all qualified. And of those who qualified as Coheniym (priests), there remains a discrepancy, because ultimately, the priesthood of Aharon would land squarely on Tsadoq and his progeny.
In all of this, enter the priesthood of Meleki-tsadiq (Melchizedek). Who is this priest and what is he doing here? And as we near the time of the Mashiach, another group arises who would come to be known as the Essenes. What is the history here, and can we know the truth, given the agendi of the powers that be to restate history to reflect the machinations of spiritual authority currently at play.
Join me with special guests Jessica Knock, John Barr, and Malcolm David as dig fresh soil anew with a look at the priesthood. What do we know, and when did we know it?
Until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS) mankind was reliant wholly upon fragments and copies which at best reached back to the second century in the modern epoch. In 1948, this changed with the discovery of what appears to be ancient manuscripts dating from the fourth through first century BC. These have come to be known as the Dead Sea Scrolls. While little of the past has been authoritatively ascertained, it is believed that the residents of the ancient city we now call Qumran, but then known as Damascus, was inhabited by a sect known as the Essenes. There are, however, historians, who are willing to debate this issue, including the issue of whether the authorship of these scrolls can be successfully and exclusively attributed to the Essenes. Some, for instance, believe that the Tsadoqiym – a group of Levites distinct from the practices of the Essenes – may have occupied the area prior to the monastic practices of this latter group, and may have had a hand in the crafting of specific scrolls. Regardless of the dispute, we see a “canon” of sorts appearing in the selection of manuscripts to be preserved in the caves of Qumran – not only safe from the Greeks and the Romans who may have sought to destroy the relics of the prior culture entirely, but also safe from the corruption which would soon come under the Makkabiym, the Hyrcanians, and the Hasmoneans. In this selection we find the remnants of multiple copies of the Cepher Chanoch and the Cepher Yovheliym – a selection which preceded the Council of Jamnia by centuries and the Council of Trent by nearly two millennium. Since the discovery of the DSS, we have now seen the emergence of a religious system based upon the conclusions drawn from these artifacts and manuscripts called Orthodox Essene Judaism. This purpose of today’s discussion is not an endorsement of this set of beliefs, but rather an objective dig to look at what we find. Get your shovel and pick axe. The dig is on.
The Ancient Past – what do we know? Get out your shovel and join us today on the Dig, with Stephen Pidgeon, and panelists John Barr, Jessica Knock, and a special appearance by Lisa Marie from Jerusalem.
You are soon to hear a narrative you have not heard before. It is not that the truth of it isn’t there already on the written page – or that it hasn’t been seen and read before, but now let us use our eyes to see and our ears to hear the narrative in an entirely new light.
Join Stephen Pidgeon with panelists John Barr, and from Jerusalem, Lisa Marie, as we discuss the seed of the promise.
In the creation narrative of Bere’shiyth (Genesis) 1, it seems the possibilities are endless. When we read in both Yahudah (Jude) and Chanoch (Enoch) that the angels left their first estate, one wonders where their first estate might have been. Is it possible it too was on the earth? Was there a civilization which preceded the recreation of the heavens and the earth? Was the earth brought to ruin by an unknown cataclysm before Noach’s flood? Was man created to “replenish” the earth?
On the Dig, we will discuss these things and the idea that something may have preceded the narrative we find at the outset of Genesis and will take a look at scripture to support this notion. Join Stephen Pidgeon with guests John Barr and Chelle Wagner to discuss this even further.
Sabbath with Chelle Wagner. Our apologies as the recording was started about 30 minutes into the broadcast!
