  • What Does 'Forever' Really Mean? Rediscovering Chessed in Jeremiah 33
    2026/05/04

    In Jeremiah 33:10–11, God paints a breathtaking promise: the silence of devastation will be broken by voices—joy, gladness, weddings, and thanksgiving.

    But at the center of those returning voices is a phrase repeated through generations:

    "Give thanks to the Lord of Hosts, for the Lord is good, for His Chesed endures 'Olam.'"

    What does that really mean?

    In this episode of Voices From Zion, Robby and the Rabbi explore:

    • Why "forever" (olam) may not just mean endless time—but something deeper, hidden, and eternal in a different dimension
    • The rich, untranslatable depth of chesed—far beyond "lovingkindness" into covenant loyalty, pursuing mercy, and active love
    • How Psalm 23 reframes goodness and mercy as something that chases us down like a shepherd's dog
    • Why restoration in Jerusalem is not just physical—but audible—you can hear it when God moves
    • The connection to the ancient Jewish wedding blessing and the prophetic picture of joy returning to Zion
    • What it means to truly taste and see that the Lord is good—not intellectually, but experientially

    And woven through it all: a personal testimony of tasting God's love in a way that changes everything.

    Because maybe "His Chesed endures forever" isn't just a statement…

    Maybe it's an invitation.

  • Mine, Mine, Mine: The Seagulls, the Son, and the First Offering
    2026/05/01

    In this episode of What God Showed Me Today, we trace a surprising thread from the cry of Ecclesiastes—"vanity of vanities"—back to the very first human struggle over identity, possession, and worship.

    The journey begins with the word הבל (hevel)—breath, vapor, vanity—and how it echoes not only through Ecclesiastes but into the name Abel, the second son of Adam and Eve.

    From there, we step into Genesis 4 and carefully read Eve's births "with God"—a phrase that quietly reveals partnership, pain, and promise in the formation of humanity's first family dynamic.

    At the center stands a tension as old as Eden:
    What is mine… and what is God's?

    Cain's offering and Abel's offering are not just acts of worship—they are revelations of the heart's struggle between possession and surrender.

    Like the seagulls in Finding Nemo, the human heart still cries: "Mine… mine… mine…"

    But Heaven responds with something deeper:
    "Bring Me what is yours… and find Me in it."

    This episode explores:

    • How הבל (vanity/breath) shapes human identity
    • Why Abel's name is not accidental
    • What Eve's naming of her sons reveals about partnership with God
    • How offerings expose the difference between ownership and worship
    • And why the first conflict in Scripture is really about possession vs. presence

  • נורא (Awesome) God—and What He Is Asking Today of Our Hearts
    2026/04/29

    In this episode of What God Showed Me Today, we sit in the tension between two anchor points of Scripture and prayer:

    Deuteronomy 10:12–13 calls us into something startlingly intimate—
    to walk in all God's ways, to love Him, and to serve Him with all our heart and soul.

    But just a few verses later (10:17), Moses describes this same God as "the great, mighty, and awesome God"—a phrase that Jewish prayer preserves in the opening of the Amidah.

    That word "awesome" (נורא) is not casual language. It carries the sense of a God who is beyond containment, beyond emotional grasp, beyond intellectual reduction—yet still inviting covenant intimacy.

    This episode explores the paradox:

    • The God who cannot be grasped
    • Is the same God who commands total heart-and-soul intimacy
    • And fear of the Lord is not distance—it is alignment with the overwhelming presence of Love itself

    We trace how the Amidah preserves this ancient confession:
    "Great, Mighty, and Awesome"
    and how that framing actually deepens—not lessens—the call of Deuteronomy 10:12–13.

    What if "fear of the Lord" is not shrinking back…
    but stepping fully into a love so vast it overwhelms every lesser loyalty?

  • Carrying Each Other: The Cost of Love
    2026/04/24

    In Ephesians 4:2, Paul calls us to "bear with one another in love" — but what does that really mean?

    In this episode, we dive into the Hebrew word נָשָׂא (Nasa) — to lift, carry, or bear — and uncover a much deeper picture of what love actually requires.

    From the scapegoat in Leviticus 16, carrying away the sins of the people…
    to Isaiah 53, where the Messiah "bore our griefs"…

    We discover that bearing with one another is not passive tolerance — it is active, sacrificial carrying.

    We'll also explore the letters of Nasa (Nun, Shin, Alef) and how they reveal a process:

    • Continuation and endurance (Nun)
    • The consuming/refining fire (Shin)
    • The strength and source of God (Alef)

    This is the kind of love that:

    • absorbs instead of reacts
    • carries instead of collapses
    • reflects the heart of Christ

    If you've ever struggled with difficult people, relationships, or the weight of loving well — this episode will challenge and anchor you.

  • You Can't See It Until You Need It: The Door to Oneness & Unity
    2026/04/23

    In today's episode of What God Showed Me Today, we explore a powerful mystery hidden in the Hebrew word אחד (Echad)—oneness.

    Why does Echad end with a dalet (ד)—a door?

    Because oneness with God isn't something we achieve… it's something we enter.

    And here's the key:
    You can't see the door… until you see your need.

    Drawing from Epistle to the Ephesians 4:1–7, we uncover how humility, meekness, and dependence become the pathway into true unity—not just with God, but with one another.

    We'll also explore the connection to יחד (Yahad)—unity—and how both words reveal that our need is not a weakness… it's the doorway.

    Just like Christian in The Pilgrim's Progress discovering the hidden door in the house of giants, the entrance was always there… but only visible when desperation made him look.

    This episode is an invitation:
    To stop striving…
    To start seeing…
    And to walk through the door into His Oneness.

  • Lev 19:18 Revealed — Grudge, Revenge, and the Path of Meekness
    2026/04/22

    In this first episode of What God Showed Me Today, we step into the tension of one of Scripture's most direct commands: "You shall not take vengeance, nor bear a grudge…" (Leviticus 19:18).

    But what does it actually look like to stop a grudge from forming in the heart—or to lay down the internal pull toward revenge once it's already begun?

    We'll explore how Scripture doesn't just forbid vengeance outwardly, but confronts the deeper root within us. Using the Hebrew words and letters behind revenge, grudge, and meekness, we uncover how God reshapes the inner world of the heart.

    This episode contrasts:

    • The inner weight of bearing a grudge
    • The pull toward vengeance
    • And the restoring power of meekness and humility

    And we'll see how God's instruction in Leviticus 19:18 is not just a rule—but a re-formation of how we see, respond, and remain free.
