Parashah Points: Shoftim – Humble Torah Observance

In this week’s Parashah Point on the Torah Portion Shoftim, we see in Deuteronomy 18 where we are told don’t listen to false prophets.

In this week’s Parashah Point on the Torah Portion Lech Lecha, we review the call of Abraham found in Genesis 12:1-3. Just as Abraham was called out from his life to go into a new place, we too are called to leave our old lives behind to follow YHWH by walking as Messiah walked.

This Parashah Point examines the Torah portion Acharei Mot and focuses on Leviticus 18. God told Israel not to imitate the immoral practices of Egypt and Canaan but to keep His statutes. The chapter then lists various prohibited sexual relationships—incest, adultery, same‑sex relations, and bestiality—and warns that these abominations defile the land and invite God’s judgment. The teaching affirms that God’s standards for sexual purity are part of His moral law and still apply to believers today.

In this week’s Parashah Point we look at the Torah Portion called Re’eh. We find out, in Deuteronomy 14:2-3 a very important reason our diet is important to the Creator, namely why we should eat clean.
