Tsiyon Messianic Community

I would like to study about Paul's ministry in the Hebrew sense.

Paul has played a mighty part in the christian arena with some good teachings and some bad (meaning on who's opinion you follow). I used to defend Paul many times when I was in the main stream christian world. Even then I knew Paul was more then what most people thought of him.

All I get now from people is how he was hard on women, how he showed us that the Torah way isn't for us (the gentiles) and etc. etc.

So where can I really get a good grasp on this man and the teachings. I want to be able to explain to others in a calm way how Paul was a Torah follower of Yeshua and that what he had taught has been turned around and has been used against him and us.

Thanks!

 I am so with U on this subject,  even as a Jewish believer myself in Messiah, I want to do a study on Paul and his teachings for the same reason U expressed.     Have U began the study yet?

Its amazing that more and more folks are starting to feel the same way concerning Torah not being done away with.   

Praise God.   Let me know how your study goes.

Many blessings.

Paul was an Apostle and a great man of YHWH. Some in the Messianic world criticize Paul because they have accepted the Christian version of who and what Paul was and what Paul taught. Since they do not agree with those Christian representations they blame Paul and reject him. Whoops! You've just thrown out the baby with the bathwater!

We have taught some from Paul in our programs, but hope to do a study on him at some time in the future. Can't now. We have bigger fish to fry at the moment.  Suffice it to say for the moment that Paul was a faithful Israelite who has an often misunderstood revelation from YHWH that we all need.  You might turn to Stern's Commentary on the Jewish New Testament for a more Hebraic perspective.

Shalom, Eliyahu
