TorahScope
is a reflection on the weekly parashah written by
OIM director Mark Huey. It has been developed to offer a
unique, Messianic perspective on life that is consistent
with the foundational writings of the Torah, also
commonly known as the Pentateuch.
The
Jewish community has developed the consistent
pattern of reading a section of the Torah
(Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers,
Deuteronomy) each week throughout the year. This
is a discipline that most in the Messianic
community have adopted as well. TorahScope takes
these weekly readings, and considers their
relevance for human living today.
The
"scope"
of TorahScope indicates the level, detail, or
perspective of observing and analyzing
life―whether through the telescopic lens of the
world, persiscopic lens of the underworld, or a
microscopic lens that will peer into the heart
and soul of individuals. When you put
"TorahScope"
together, you find a grid or lens that can be
very useful in discerning life and the answers
that many of us seek from God.
