֍ ֍ ֍ What is this Torah portion about?

The parashah, Toledot, tells of the conflict between Jacob and Esau. Isaac’s passing off his wife Rebekah as his sister, and Isaac’s blessing of his sons. (<<— edited from wikipedia)

֍ ֍ ֍ *Was Isaac Caught Playing With Rebekah Or Was Sex Involved*?

I’ve included an article where posted an article written about this and I expounded with my thoughts as I wrote from where Avi Lipkin left off. You can access it here at your leisure. It’s called “Tsâchaq – Ishmael “mocking” or “molesting”? Isaac “Playing” or “Petting”?

It opens up into another tab or page.

֍ ֍ ֍ Where are we in our studies?

We are in the Book of Genesis (from Greek Γένεσις, Génesis; Biblical Hebrew: בְּרֵאשִׁית, romanized: Bərēʾšīṯ, “In [the] beginning”) NOTE: Yahweh is NOT Yah’s name. At best it is a scholar’s guess and a bad one at that. His real name is pronounced Yehovah.

NOTE: For Older Testament passages I’ve become rather interested in reading them in the Septuagint. I know some passages are different there comparably, but the Septuagint seems to have more depth in understanding than the Bibles translated using the Masoretic text created in about 600-1000 A.D.

This is compared to the origins of the Septuagint.

The Septuagint is the very first translation of the Hebrew Bible from Hebrew to another language, Greek. It’s believed that it was probably translated as early as the third century BC. The Septuagint translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek is traditionally dated to the reign of Ptolemy II Philadelphus of Egypt (285-246 BC).
