Shalom Chaverim,
I continue to expand my commentary on the Scriptures. So far I have only posted material on Genesis Chapter 1. In the 1980’s, when I was studying under my mentor Rabbi Armand Daniel (“Danny”) Moyal, he spent a great deal of time with me on the first few verses of Genesis. There is just so much wisdom, knowledge and understanding packed into these verses.
In my commentary on this material, I am making use of the great Rabbinic Commentators, including Rashbam, Rashi, Kimhi, Nachmanides, Ibn Ezra, Eliezer Hakkalir, Barachiah and others, as well as Philo of Alexandria.
I am also making use of some unique sources, such as The 17th Century Rabbi Shlomo Meir Ben Moshe, who became a believer in Yeshua as the Messiah based on insights he discovered in the Hebrew text of the Torah. I also have credited some of the teachings of my old mentor Rabbi Moyal, an Orthodox Rabbi from Israel who had become a believer in Yeshua as the Messiah based on insights he found in the Talmud, Midrashim and Zohar.
I am making use, not only of the great Rabbinic Commentators, but of the Talmud, Midrashim, Sefer Yetzirah, Bahir, and Zohar and I also have made use of the Hebrew text of the openning verses of Yochanan from an old Hebrew manuscript.
Today I made the following additional comments:
- About the Hebrew letters for “in the beginning” being an anagram for “On Tishri 1”
- Expansion about the material concerning the creation of “light” (Important added material here
- Added material about why we read “one day” not “first day”
- I added a discussion about the “firmament”
The work continues!
The rent is due soon, and right now we do not have it. We need your support!
I want to thank all of you supporting this work. I literally could not do it without you!
This work takes hours of my time. As many of you know, my wife is very ill, and I spend most of my time at home as her caretaker. I work at a desk less than six feet from her bed. So I am in a position to dedicate many hours to this important work that I have been directed to do.
But I also realize that it is not the activity of James Trimm alone who is responsible to do this work, it is all of us together who are charged with the responsibility of accomplishing this work. I very much look on the efforts of this restoration work as a cooperative one with each one of you. We are all joint heirs with Messiah and should always be about our Father’s business. I am honored to be able to be partnered with truth seekers as this restoration of Scripture moves forward in fulfillment of prophecy.
