Deu 6:4 שׁמע ישׂראל יהוה אלהינו יהוה אחד׃
Deu 6:4 “Hear, O Yisra’ĕl: יהוה our Elohim, יהוה is one!
1Pe 3:15 But set apart יהוה Elohim in your hearts, and always be ready to give an answer to everyone asking you a reason concerning the expectation that is in you, with meekness and fear,
1Pe 3:16 having a good conscience, so that when they speak against you as doers of evil, those who falsely accuse your good behaviour in Messiah, shall be ashamed.
Brit Hadasha: Mark 11:27 – 12:37
Mar 11:27 And they came again to Yerushalayim. And as He was walking in the Set-apart Place, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders came to Him,
Mar 11:28 and they said to Him, “By what authority are You doing these? And who gave You this authority to do these?”
Mar 11:29 And יהושע answering, said to them, “I shall ask you one question, and answer Me, and I shall say to you by what authority I do these:
Mar 11:30 “The immersion of Yoḥanan – was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me.”
John the immerser was actually in line to be high priest but left his position for the wilderness, whereas some of the priests at that time were not even Levites, but bought into the priesthood. So if they condemned John, they feared the people would maul them for their hypocrisy.
Mar 11:31 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He shall say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’
Mar 11:32 “But if we say, ‘From men’ ” – they feared the people, for all held that Yoḥanan was a prophet indeed.
Mar 11:33 And answering they said to יהושע, “We do not know.” And יהושע answering, said to them, “Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these.”
Mar 12:1 And He began to speak to them in parables, “A man planted a vineyard and put a hedge around it, and dug a vat for the winepress and built a watchtower, and let it out to farmers and went away.
Isa 5:1 Please let me sing to the One I love, a song for my loved One regarding His vineyard: my loved One has a vineyard on a fertile hill.
Isa 5:2 And He dug it up and cleared it of stones, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a watchtower in its midst, and also made a winepress in it. And He waited for the yielding of grapes, but it yielded rotten ones.
Isa 5:3 “And now, O inhabitant of Yerushalayim and man of Yehuḏah, please judge between Me and My vineyard.
Isa 5:4 “What more could have been done to My vineyard that I have not done in it? Why, when I waited for the yielding of grapes, did it yield rotten ones?
Isa 5:5 “And now, please let Me inform you what I am doing to My vineyard: To take away its hedge and it shall be burned; to break down its wall and it shall be trampled down;
Isa 5:6 and I lay it waste; it is not pruned or dug and thornbushes and weeds shall come up; and I command the clouds not to rain on it.”
Isa 5:7 For the vineyard of יהוה of hosts is the house of Yisra’ĕl, and the man of Yehuḏah is His pleasant plant. He looked for right-ruling, but see, oppression; for righteousness, but see, weeping.
Psa 80:7 Turn us back, O Elohim of hosts, And cause Your face to shine, That we might be saved!
Psa 80:8 You brought a vine out of Mitsrayim; You drove out the nations, and planted it.
Psa 80:9 You cleared a place for it, And caused it to take deep root, And it filled the land.
Psa 80:10 Hills were covered with its shadow, And the mighty cedars with its twigs.
Psa 80:11 She spread her branches to the Sea, And her shoots to the River.
Psa 80:12 Why have You broken down her hedges, So that every passer-by plucked her fruit?
Psa 80:13 The boar out of the forest ravages it, And the wild beast of the field devours it.
Psa 80:14 Return, we beg You, O Elohim of hosts; Look down from heaven, and see, And visit this vine,
Psa 80:15 And the stock which Your right hand has planted, And the Son whom You made strong for Yourself.
Psa 80:16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down; They perish at the rebuke of Your face.
Psa 80:17 Let Your hand be upon the One at Your right hand, Upon the Son of Aḏam whom You made strong for Yourself,
Psa 80:18 And we shall not backslide from You. Revive us, and let us call upon Your Name.
Psa 80:19 Turn us back, O יהוה Elohim of hosts, And cause Your face to shine, That we might be saved!
Eze 3:17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Yisra’ĕl. And you shall hear a word from My mouth, and shall warn them from Me.
Eze 3:18 “When I say to the wrong1, ‘You shall certainly die,’ and you have not warned him, nor spoken to warn the wrong from his wrong way, to save his life, that same wrong man shall die in his crookedness, and his blood I require at your hand. Footnote: 1This passage is almost the same as in 18:20-32 and 33:8-20.
Eze 3:19 “But if you have warned the wrong and he does not turn from his wrong, nor from his wrong way, he shall die in his crookedness, and you have delivered your being.
Eze 3:20 “And when a righteous one turns from his righteousness and shall do unrighteousness, when I have put a stumbling-block before him, he shall die. Because you did not warn him, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he has done is not remembered, and his blood I require at your hand.
Eze 3:21 “But if you have warned the righteous one that the righteous should not sin, and he did not sin, he shall certainly live because he has been warned, and you have delivered your being.”
Eze 3:22 And the hand of יהוה came upon me there, and He said to me, “Arise, go out into the plain, so that I might speak to you there.”
Mar 12:2 “And at harvest time he sent a servant to the farmers, to receive some of the fruit of the vineyard from the farmers.
Mar 12:3 “And they seized him and beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
Mar 12:4 “And again he sent them another servant, and throwing stones at him, they wounded him in the head, and sent him away, having insulted him.
Mar 12:5 “And again he sent another, and they killed him; and many others, beating some and killing some.
Mar 12:6 “He had one more son, his beloved. He sent him last of all, saying, ‘They shall respect my son.’
Mar 12:7 “But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.’
Mar 12:8 “So they took him and killed him and threw him out of the vineyard.
Mar 12:9 “What then shall the owner of the vineyard do? He shall come and destroy the farmers, and give the vineyard to others.
Mar 12:10 “Have you not read this Scripture, ‘The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief corner-stone.
Mar 12:11 ‘This was from יהוה, and it is marvellous in our eyes’?”
Psa 118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief corner-stone.
Psa 118:23 This was from יהוה, It is marvellous in our eyes.
Mar 12:12 And they were seeking to seize Him, but feared the crowd, for they knew He had spoken the parable against them. And leaving Him, they went away.
Mar 12:13 And they sent to Him some of the Pharisees and the Herodians, to catch Him in a word.
Mar 12:14 And when they came, they said to Him, “Teacher, we know that You are true, and it does not concern You about anyone, for You are not partial to any, but teach the way of Elohim in truth. Is it right to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?
Mar 12:15 “Should we pay, or should we not pay?” And He, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you try Me? Bring Me a silver piece to look at.”
Mar 12:16 And they brought it, and He said to them, “Whose likeness and inscription is this?” And they said to Him, “Caesar’s.”
Mar 12:17 So יהושע said to them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to Elohim what is Elohim’s.” And they marvelled at Him.
Mar 12:18 And Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him. And they asked Him, saying,
Mar 12:19 “Teacher, Mosheh wrote to us that if a brother of anyone dies, and leaves his wife behind, and leaves no children, his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.
Deu 25:5 “When brothers dwell together, and one of them has died, and has no son, the widow of the dead man shall not become a stranger’s outside. Her husband’s brother does go in to her, and shall take her as his wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her.
Deu 25:6 “And it shall be that the first-born son which she bears does rise up for the name of his dead brother, so that his name is not blotted out of Yisra’ĕl.
Mar 12:20 “There were seven brothers, and the first took a wife, and died, leaving no offspring.
Mar 12:21 “And the second took her, and he died, leaving behind no offspring. And the third likewise.
Mar 12:22 “And the seven left no offspring. Last of all the woman died too.
Mar 12:23 “In the resurrection then, when they rise, whose wife shall she be? For seven had her as wife.”
Mar 12:24 And יהושע answering, said to them, “Is this not why you go astray, because you do not know the Scriptures1 nor the power of Elohim? Footnote: 1Mt. 22:29.
Mar 12:25 “For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as messengers in the heavens.
Mar 12:26 “And concerning the dead, that they rise – have you not read in the book of Mosheh, at the bush, how Elohim spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the Elohim of Aḇraham, and the Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ’?
Exo 3:6 And He said, “I am the Elohim of your father, the Elohim of Aḇraham, the Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ.” And Mosheh hid his face, for he was afraid to look at Elohim.
Mar 12:27 “He is not the Elohim of the dead, but Elohim of the living. You, then, go greatly astray.”
Mar 12:28 And one of the scribes coming near, hearing them reasoning together, knowing that He had answered them well, asked Him, “Which is the first command of all?”
Mar 12:29 And יהושע answered him, “The first of all the commands is, ‘Hear, O Yisra’ĕl, יהוה our Elohim, יהוה is one.
Mar 12:30 ‘And you shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first command.
Deu 6:4 “Hear, O Yisra’ĕl: יהוה our Elohim, יהוה is one!
Deu 6:5 “And you shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your might.
Mar 12:31 “And the second, like it, is this, ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’ There is no other command greater than these.”
Lev 19:18 ‘Do not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the children of your people. And you shall love your neighbour as yourself. I am יהוה.
Mar 12:32 And the scribe said to Him, “Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one Elohim, and there is no other besides Him.
Deu 4:35 “You have been shown it, to know that יהוה Himself is Elohim; there is no one beside Him.
Mar 12:33 “And to love Him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the being, and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbour as oneself, is more than all the burnt offerings and offerings.”
Mar 12:34 And when יהושע saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, “You are not far from the reign of Elohim.” And after that no one was bold enough to question Him.
Mar 12:35 And יהושע responding, said, while teaching in the Set-apart Place, “How is it that the scribes say that the Messiah is the Son of Dawiḏ?
Mar 12:36 “Dawiḏ himself said by the Set-apart Spirit, ‘יהוה said to my Master, “Sit at My right hand, until I make Your enemies a footstool of Your feet.” ’
Psa 110:1 יהוה said to my Master, “Sit at My right hand, Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”
Psa 110:2 יהוה sends Your mighty sceptre out of Tsiyon. Rule in the midst of Your enemies!
Psa 110:3 Your people volunteer in the day of Your might, In the splendours of set-apartness! From the womb, from the morning, You have the dew of Your youth!
Psa 110:4 יהוה has sworn and does not relent, “You are a priest forever According to the order of Malkitseḏeq.”
Psa 110:5 יהוה at Your right hand Shall smite sovereigns in the day of His wrath.
Psa 110:6 He judges among the nations, He shall fill the nations with dead bodies, He shall crush the Head over the mighty earth!
Psa 110:7 He drinks of the stream by the wayside, Therefore He does lift up the head!
Mar 12:37 “Dawiḏ himself calls Him ‘Master.’ In what way then is He his Son?” And the large crowd heard Him gladly.
Mar 12:38 And in His teaching He was saying to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and like greetings in the market-places,
Mar 12:39 and the best seats in the congregations, and the best places at feasts,
Mar 12:40 who are devouring widows’ houses, and for a show make long prayers. These shall receive greater judgment.”
Mar 12:41 And sitting opposite the treasury He saw how the people put copper into the treasury. And many rich ones put in much.
Mar 12:42 And a poor widow came and threw in two small copper coins, which amount to a cent.
Mar 12:43 And calling near His taught ones He said to them, “Truly, I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those putting into the treasury,
Mar 12:44 for they all put in out of their excess, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had, her entire livelihood.”
Heb 12:1 We too, then, having so great a cloud of witnesses all around us, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race set before us,
Heb 12:2 looking to the Princely Leader and Perfecter of our belief, יהושע, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the stake, having despised the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of Elohim.
Heb 12:3 For consider Him who endured such opposition from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and faint in your lives.
Heb 12:4 You have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
Heb 12:5 And you have forgotten the appeal which speaks to you as to sons, “My son, do not despise the discipline of יהוה, nor faint when you are reproved by Him,
Heb 12:6 for whom יהוה loves, He disciplines, and flogs every son whom He receives.”1
Footnote: 1Prov. 3:11-12
Pro 3:11 My son, do not despise the discipline of יהוה, And do not loathe His reproof;
Pro 3:12 For whom יהוה loves He reproves, As a father the son whom he delights in1. Footnote: 1Verses 11 – 12 are quoted in Heb. 12:5-6.
Heb 12:7 If you endure discipline, Elohim is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom a father does not discipline?
Heb 12:8 But if you are without discipline, of which all have become sharers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.
Heb 12:9 Moreover, we indeed had fathers of our flesh disciplining us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live?
Heb 12:10 For they indeed disciplined us for a few days as seemed best to them, but He does it for our profit, so that we might share His apartness.
Heb 12:11 And indeed, no discipline seems pleasant at the time, but grievous, but afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.1
Footnote: 1Dt. 8:2
Deu 8:1 “Guard to do every command which I command you today, that you might live, and shall increase, and go in, and shall possess the land of which יהוה swore to your fathers.
Deu 8:2 “And you shall remember that יהוה your Elohim led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you, prove you, to know what is in your heart, whether you guard His commands or not. Deu 8:3 “And He humbled you, and let you suffer hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, to make you know that man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word that comes from the mouth of יהוה1. Footnote: 1Messiah quotes this in Mt. 4:4 and in Lk. 4:4.
Heb 12:12 So, strengthen the hands which hang down and the weak knees,
Heb 12:13 and make straight paths for your feet, lest the lame be turned aside, but instead, to be healed.
Heb 12:14 Pursue peace with all, and pursue apartness without which no one shall see the Master.
Heb 12:15 See to it that no one falls short of the favour of Elohim, that no root of bitterness springing up causes trouble, by which many become defiled,
Heb 12:16 lest there be anyone who whores, or profane one, like Ěsaw, who for a single meal sold his birthright.
Heb 12:17 For you know that afterward, when he wished to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it with tears.
Worldly sorrow is simply being sorry for not having what one wants and is bred from selfishness. True Elohim guided repentance is a 180% turn from sin, and showing the fruit of that repentance. Esau did not have this and was simply sorry that he lost his blessing (2 Cor 7:10).
2Co 7:10 For sadness according to Elohim works repentance to deliverance, not to be regretted, but the sadness of the world works death.
Prophets: 1 Kings 18:46 – 19:21
1Ki 18:46 And the hand of יהוה was on Ěliyahu. And he girded up his loins and ran ahead of Aḥaḇ to the entrance of Yizreʽĕl.
Jezreel was a winter residence of Ahab and about 17 miles from Mount Carmel.
1Ki 19:1 And when Aḥaḇ reported to Izeḇel all that Ěliyahu had done, also how he slew all the prophets with the sword,
1Ki 19:2 Izeḇel sent a messenger to Ěliyahu, saying, “So let the mighty ones do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.”
1Ki 19:3 And he feared, and rose up and ran for his life, and went to Be’ĕrsheḇa, which belongs to Yehuḏah, and left his servant there.
It is interesting that after just having such great courage to fight and defeat 450 priests of Baal that Elijah would be so afraid of the woman Jezebel.
1Ki 19:4 But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree, and prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, יהוה, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!”
A broom tree was a desert shrub that could grow up to 10 feet tall.
1Ki 19:5 And he lay and slept under a broom tree, and see, a messenger touched him, and said to him, “Rise, eat.”
1Ki 19:6 And he looked and saw by his head a cake baked on coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank, and turned and lay down.
1Ki 19:7 And the messenger of יהוה came back the second time, and touched him, and said, “Rise, eat, for the journey is too much for you.”
1Ki 19:8 And he rose up and ate and drank, and went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights as far as Ḥorĕḇ, the mountain of Elohim.
Mount Horeb was an alternate name for Mount Sinai, Ex 3:1.
1Ki 19:9 And there he went into a cave and spent the night there. And see, the word of יהוה came to him, and said to him, “What are you doing here, Ěliyahu?”
1Ki 19:10 And he said, “I have been very jealous for יהוה Elohim of hosts, for the children of Yisra’ĕl have forsaken Your covenant. They have thrown down Your altars, and they have slain Your prophets with the sword, and I am left, I alone, and they seek my life, to take it.”
1Ki 19:11 And He said, “Go out, and stand on the mountain before יהוה.” And see, יהוה passed by, and a great and strong wind tearing the mountains and breaking the rocks in pieces before יהוה – יהוה was not in the wind. And after the wind an earthquake – יהוה was not in the earthquake,
1Ki 19:12 and after the earthquake a fire – יהוה was not in the fire, and after the fire a still small voice.
It is hard to hear the voice of YHWH when there is clutter in one’s life, as one must listen very intently to hear a small still voice.
1Ki 19:13 And it came to be, when Ěliyahu heard it, that he wrapped his face in his robe and went out and stood at the cave opening. And see, a voice came to him, and said, “What are you doing here, Ěliyahu?”
1Ki 19:14 And he said, “I have been very jealous for יהוה Elohim of hosts, for the children of Yisra’ĕl have forsaken Your covenant. They have thrown down Your altars, and they have slain Your prophets with the sword, and I am left, I alone, and they seek my life, to take it.”
1Ki 19:15 And יהוה said to him, “Go, return on your way to the Wilderness of Damascus. And you shall go in and anoint Ḥaza’ĕl as sovereign over Aram.
1Ki 19:16 “And anoint Yĕhu son of Nimshi as sovereign over Yisra’ĕl. And anoint Elisha son of Shaphat of Aḇĕl Meḥolah as prophet in your place.
The second time the word of YHWH asked what Elijah was doing there as he just defeated the priests of Baal and the people were on his side chanting “Yahweh is Elohim”, (1 Kgs 19:39). At this most pivotal moment when the people now needed Elijah’s guidance in how to properly worship YHWH, he had ran away from his responsibility and was sulking.
Many times a prideful person will think that they are the only one serving YHWH, when in reality YHWH always has others to replace someone who is not fit for their position. This should be quite humbling.
1Ki 19:17 “And it shall be that whoever escapes the sword of Ḥaza’ĕl, Yĕhu does kill. And whoever escapes from the sword of Yĕhu, Elisha does kill.
1Ki 19:18 “And I shall leave seven thousand in Yisra’ĕl, all whose knees have not bowed to Baʽal, and every mouth that has not kissed him.”
1Ki 19:19 And he went from there, and found Elisha son of Shaphat, who was ploughing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he was with the twelfth. And Ěliyahu passed by him and threw his robe on him.
1Ki 19:20 And he left the oxen and ran after Ěliyahu, and said, “Please let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I follow you.” And he said to him, “Go, turn back, for what have I done to you?”
1Ki 19:21 And he turned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen and slaughtered them and cooked their flesh, using the implements of the oxen, and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he rose up and followed Ěliyahu, and became his servant.
Pinechas, Pinchas, Pinhas, or Pin’has (פִּינְחָס — Hebrew for “Phinehas,” a name, the sixth word and the first distinctive word in the parashah) is the 41st weekly Torah portion (פָּרָשָׁה, parashah) in the annual Jewish cycle of Torah reading and the eighth in the Book of Numbers. It constitutes Numbers 25:10–30:1. The parashah is made up of 7,853 Hebrew letters, 1,887 Hebrew words, and 168 verses, and can occupy about 280 lines in a Torah scroll (סֵפֶר תּוֹרָה, Sefer Torah).
Torah: Numbers 25:10 – 29:40 (30:1)
1st reading (עליה, aliyah) Bemidbar 25:10-26:4
Num 25:10 And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
Num 25:11 “Pineḥas, son of Elʽazar, son of Aharon the priest, has turned back My wrath from the children of Yisra’ĕl, because he was ardent with My ardour in their midst, so that I did not consume the children of Yisra’ĕl in My ardour.
Num 25:12 “Therefore say, ‘See, I am giving him My covenant of peace,
Num 25:13 and it shall be to him and to his seed after him a covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was ardent for his Elohim, and made atonement for the children of Yisra’ĕl.’ ”
Num 25:14 And the name of the Yisra’ĕlite who was killed, who was killed with the Miḏyanite woman, was Zimri, son of Salu, a leader of a father’s house among the Shimʽonites.
Num 25:15 And the name of the Miḏyanite woman who was killed was Kozbi the daughter of Tsur. He was head of the people of a father’s house in Miḏyan.
Num 25:16 And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
Num 25:17 “Distress the Miḏyanites! And you shall smite them,
Num 25:18 for they distressed you with their tricks with which they deceived you in the matter of Peʽor and in the matter of Kozbi, the daughter of a leader of Miḏyan, their sister, who was killed in the day of the plague because of Peʽor.”
Num 26:1 And it came to be, after the plague, that יהוה spoke to Mosheh and Elʽazar, son of Aharon the priest, saying,
Num 26:2 “Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl from twenty years old and above, by their fathers’ houses, everyone going out to the army in Yisra’ĕl.”
Num 26:3 So Mosheh and Elʽazar the priest spoke with them in the desert plains of Mo’aḇ by the Yardĕn of Yeriḥo, saying,
Num 26:4 “Take a census of the people from twenty years old and above, as יהוה commanded Mosheh and the children of Yisra’ĕl who came out of the land of Mitsrayim.”

Num 26:52 And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
Num 26:53 “The land is to be divided to these as an inheritance, according to the number of names.
Num 26:54 “To the large one you give a larger inheritance, and to the small one you give a smaller inheritance. Each shall be given its inheritance according to their registered ones.
Num 26:55 “But the land is divided by lot, they inherit according to the names of the tribes of their fathers.
Num 26:56 “According to the lot their inheritance is divided between the larger and the smaller.”
Num 26:57 And these are the registered ones of the Lĕwites according to their clans: of Gĕreshon, the clan of the Gĕreshonites; of Qehath, the clan of the Qehathites; of Merari, the clan of the Merarites.
Num 26:58 These are the clans of the Lĕwites: the clan of the Liḇnites, the clan of the Ḥeḇronites, the clan of the Maḥlites, the clan of the Mushites, and the clan of the Qorḥites. And Qehath brought forth Amram.
Num 26:59 And the name of Amram’s wife was Yoḵeḇeḏ the daughter of Lĕwi, who was born to Lĕwi in Mitsrayim. And to Amram she bore Aharon and Mosheh and their sister Miryam.
Num 26:60 And to Aharon were born Naḏaḇ and Aḇihu, Elʽazar and Ithamar.
Num 26:61 And Naḏaḇ and Aḇihu died when they brought strange fire before יהוה.
Num 26:62 And their registered ones were twenty-three thousand, every male from a month old and above. For they were not registered among the other children of Yisra’ĕl, because there was no inheritance given to them among the children of Yisra’ĕl.
Num 26:63 These are the ones registered by Mosheh and Elʽazar the priest, who registered the sons of Yisra’ĕl in the desert plains of Mo’aḇ by the Yardĕn of Yeriḥo.
Num 26:64 But among these there was not a man of those registered by Mosheh and Aharon the priest when they registered the sons of Yisra’ĕl in the Wilderness of Sinai.
Num 26:65 For יהוה had said of them, “They shall certainly die in the wilderness.” And not a man was left of them, except Kalĕḇ son of Yephunneh, and Yehoshua son of Nun.
Num 27:1 Then came the daughters of Tselophḥaḏ, son of Ḥĕpher, son of Gilʽaḏ, son of Maḵir, son of Menashsheh, from the clans of Menashsheh, son of Yosĕph. And these were the names of his daughters: Maḥlah, Noʽah, and Ḥoḡlah, and Milkah, and Tirtsah.
Num 27:2 And they stood before Mosheh, and before Elʽazar the priest, and before the leaders and all the congregation, by the doorway of the Tent of Meeting, saying,
Num 27:3 “Our father died in the wilderness, yet he was not in the company of those who were met together against יהוה, in company with Qoraḥ, but he died in his own sin. And he had no sons.
Num 27:4 “Why should the name of our father be removed from among his clan because he had no son? Give us a possession among the brothers of our father.”
Num 27:5 Mosheh then brought their case before יהוה.
4th reading (עליה, aliyah) Bemidbar 27:6-23
Num 27:6 And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
Num 27:7 “The daughters of Tselophḥaḏ speak what is right. You should certainly give them a possession of inheritance among their father’s brothers, and cause the inheritance of their father to pass to them.
Num 27:8 “And speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘When a man dies and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.
Num 27:9 ‘And if he has no daughter, then you shall give his inheritance to his brothers.
Num 27:10 ‘And if he has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to his father’s brothers.
Num 27:11 ‘And if his father has no brothers, then you shall give his inheritance to the nearest relative in his clan, and he shall possess it.’ ” And it shall be to the children of Yisra’ĕl a law of right-ruling, as יהוה commanded Mosheh.
Num 27:12 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go up into this Mount Aḇarim, and see the land which I have given to the children of Yisra’ĕl.
Num 27:13 “And when you have seen it, you also shall be gathered to your people as Aharon your brother was gathered,
Num 27:14 because you rebelled against My mouth in the Wilderness of Tsin, in the strife of the congregation, to set Me apart at the waters before their eyes.” These were the waters of Meriḇah, at Qaḏĕsh in the Wilderness of Tsin.
Num 27:15 And Mosheh spoke to יהוה, saying,
Num 27:16 “Let יהוה, the Elohim of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation,
Num 27:17 who goes out before them and comes in before them, who leads them out and brings them in, so that the congregation of יהוה be not like sheep without a shepherd.”
Num 27:18 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Take Yehoshua son of Nun with you, a man in whom is the Spirit. And you shall lay your hand on him,
Num 27:19 and shall set him before Elʽazar the priest and before all the congregation, and give him charge before their eyes,
Num 27:20 and shall put some of your esteem upon him, so that all the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl obey him.
Num 27:21 “And he is to stand before Elʽazar the priest, who shall inquire before יהוה for him by the right-ruling of the Urim. At his word they go out, and at his word they come in, both he and all the children of Yisra’ĕl with him, all the congregation.”
Num 27:22 And Mosheh did as יהוה commanded him, and took Yehoshua and set him before Elʽazar the priest and before all the congregation,
Num 27:23 and laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as יהוה commanded by the hand of Mosheh.
