Simchat Torah Message
duration: 38:48 min.

At Simchat Torah, as we conclude the reading of Deuteronomy and immediately continue with Genesis 1, we contemplate the full scope of the Torah’s message – from the mountaintop where Moshe looks out onto the land of promise – but can’t enter – to the pinnacle moment of creation.

We examine how the Torah speaks of Messiah, both in deliberate prophecy and in subtle nuance, how we struggle to find good in a fallen world and finally, how the B’rit Hadashah meshes so closely with the Torah’s promise of Messiah.
