   Shabbat Shalom,
   Another great teaching, Rico. My wife and I were discussing the point you made about the number 611. Didn’t you mention on a previous portion that you and Brad Scott had searched the Torah and found 611 places of the aleph tav? Coincidence…?
   Also, concerning 8+1+1 = New beginnings and resurrection: The Hebrew for truth = “emeit”, can also be referred to mean “aleph” (alluding to G-d, revives) “meit” (the dead). Just another one of those “coincidences” …
   BTW, it was a pleasure to break bread and midrash a little with you at The Vine.
   Elliot and Melody

   Thanks for tying together teaching in the “new testament” with the “old testament”…you really aren’t taught that everything disciples, Yeshua and Paul were saying were quoting or explaining scripture…You would think that would be obvious but not being taught that…you just think it is new stuff. Thanks for bringing that out.

   Also…thanks for giving the Hebrew/Rabbinic interpretation of the “ten” commandments…when seeing them as presented in this Torah Portion…it is so obvious we fall short…the way we were taught…in church circles…we felt pretty good…with the real interpretation…wow…all have sinned…fallen short…really short!

   Thanks again.
