Hashem created man from dust, meaning as "Negev-land." Translated, this means "without a brideprice." Passages in Joshua and Hosea clarify that Hashem will pay the brideprice for the Jewish People. In this study we examine the meaning and uncover vast depths of Hashem's mercy, love, grace, and eternal plan for His beloved: the Jewish People and Jewish Nation of Israel.

This Jewish poem of praise glorifies Hashem by proclaiming that He is the Good Shepherd who will gather all of His sheep home to Himself and to the Land of Israel, no matter how far away we have strayed.

The Good News of salvation is held in Torah, Hashem, and His love.

Walking in the church system has allowed me to gain a strong understanding of what the beliefs are amongst many of the denominations in the church system. Such an understanding has allowed me to be able to cut through the lies quickly and find a firm foundation in Judism, which is built on Hashem's Torah and Tanakh. if we compare the J-man's life, tactics of "salvation", and even his works, we can see that time and time again he or his deeds break Torah.
