Then the LORD spoke to you out of the midst of the fire. You heard the sound of words, but saw no form; there was only a voice. And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, that is, the Ten Commandments, and he wrote them on two tablets of stone&#8221; (Deut. 4:11-13).<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The sages say that the tablets represented a heart, as it says, \u201cwrite them on the tablet of your heart\u201d (Prov. 3:3), and God\u2019s word is likened to a fire that reveals the great passion of God\u2019s heart for us (Jer. 23:29; Deut. 4:24). Tragically, the two tablets were smashed after the people lost sight of the heart of heaven (\u05dc\u05d1 \u05e9\u05de\u05d9\u05dd), and therefore God requires a broken heart &#8211; <em>teshuvah<\/em> &#8211; to behold his glory once again. Therefore we see that Yeshua died of a broken heart upon the cross for our return to God, when the fire of his passion burned unto the very heart of heaven, and in his <em>mesirat ha\u2019nefesh<\/em> we see the greater glory of God&#8230; May we, then, readily take hold of his passion and never forsake his love and truth.<\/p>\n<p>Learn Proverbs 3:3 in Hebrew:<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-188\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/prov3-3-analysis.jpg?resize=571%2C506&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"571\" height=\"506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/prov3-3-analysis.jpg?w=571&amp;ssl=1 571w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/prov3-3-analysis.jpg?resize=300%2C266&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 571px) 100vw, 571px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-187-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/perush-prov3-3.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/perush-prov3-3.mp3\">https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/perush-prov3-3.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/Blessings\/Blessing_Cards\/prov3-3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Download Hebrew Study Card<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In our Torah for this week (i.e., Vaetchanan), Moses recalled the awesome revelation of the Torah at Sinai, describing how the mountain \u201cburned with fire unto the heart of heaven\u201d (\u05d1\u05bc\u05e2\u05b5\u05e8 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b8\u05d0\u05b5\u05e9\u05c1 \u05e2\u05b7\u05d3\u05be\u05dc\u05b5\u05d1 \u05d4\u05b7\u05e9\u05bc\u05c1\u05b8\u05de\u05b7\u05d9\u05b4\u05dd) when the Ten Commandments were inscribed upon the two tablets of testimony: &#8220;And you came near and stood at the foot [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":106,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-187","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-torah"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/187","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/106"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=187"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/187\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=187"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=187"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=187"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
