Welcome Yeshua’s Yeladim We Love You
Please Remember These Rules • Please don’t talk when others are talking. • Please raise your hand if you would like to ask a question. • Please keep your hands and feet to yourself. • You must ask to leave the room.
Vayera “And He appeared” Genesis/B’reisheet 18:1 – 22:24 “Yitzchak is Born”
Abraham Has Three Visitors • God sent three men to visit Abraham and his wife Sarah in the desert. • Then the man said, “I will come back in a year and your wife will have a son.”
Sarah Laughs • Sarah was listening from inside the tent. • She laughed to herself when she heard this because she was 89 years old! • “Why did Sarah just laugh? Is anything too hard for God?” • Yeshua said, “All things are possible with God.” (Mark 10:27)
Sarah’s Reaction • Sarah was afraid. • She couldn’t believe that this person heard her and knew her thoughts. • So she lied and said that she didn’t laugh. • Sarah lied because she was afraid.
Abraham Continues to Trust God • Abraham believed God and trusted that God would keep His promises. • The promise did not come true until Abraham was 100. • Abraham had to wait a long time to see God’s promise. • He tried to do things his way instead of God’s way. • He had a son named Ishmael.
Yitzchak Is Born! • Even when Abraham tried to do things his way, God kept His promise and gave a son to him and Sarah. • They named him Yitzchak (Isaac). • His name means “laughter.”
Abraham Tested • God told Abraham to take his son Yitzchak (Isaac), and go to the mountain in the land of Moriah. • There he was going to kill Yitzchak (Isaac) and offer him as an offering to the LORD • Abraham and his son went up the mountain together. • Yitzchak (Isaac) said to his father, “Father, where is the lamb we need for the sacrifice?” • Abraham answered, “God will give us the lamb for the sacrifice.”
The Binding of Yitzchak – Akedah עקדה • Abraham was about to kill Yitzchak (Isaac) when an angel shouted, "Do not lay a hand on the boy," • Abraham looked over and saw a ram caught in the bushes. • He used it as a sacrifice on the altar instead of his son, Yitzchak (Isaac).
Yeshua is Better Than Yitzchak • The 3 visitors were considered angels. • One of the three visitors was God Himself! • God loved the world so much that He sent his son. • Yeshua became a blessing to all people because He made the way for us to get to Heaven.
Let's Learn Hebrew! • Last week we learned the Hebrew word for “father”. • The Hebrew word for this week is “Ben”. • In English the word Ben means “Son”. • Yitzchak was the “son” or “Ben” of Abraham. Av - Father Ben - Son
Yeshua looked at them and said, "With man, that is impossible. But not with God. All things are possible with God." Mark 10:27
What Did We Learn Today? • Three angels came to announce Yitzchak’s birth. • Sarah laughed at the news of Yitzchak’s birth, Yitzchak means laughter! • There are many ways that Yitzchak can teach us about Yeshua.
