When Yeshua offered his blood upon the cross for our purification, he poured out his very soul, his final breath, and his last extremity for the sake of our healing&#8230; Since blood is the carrier of life, it has its own spiritual &#8220;voice&#8221; that intercedes on our behalf in the Holy of Holies made without hands (Gen. 4:10; Rev. 6:10; Heb. 9:12, 12:24). The great passion of our Lord still speaks, since Yeshua always lives to make intercession for us (Heb. 7:25).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hebrew Lesson:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3059\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gen3-15b-analysis.gif?resize=469%2C545&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"469\" height=\"545\" \/><\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-3058-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gen3-15b-jjp.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gen3-15b-jjp.mp3\">https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/gen3-15b-jjp.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hebrew4christians.com\/Blessings\/Blessing_Cards\/gen3-15b-lesson.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gen. 3:15b Hebrew lesson card<\/a> (pdf)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Hebrew word for &#8220;Passover&#8221; comes from a verb pasach (\u05e4\u05bc\u05b8\u05e1\u05b7\u05d7) that means to &#8220;pass over,&#8221; though it also can mean &#8220;to limp,&#8221; recalling the &#8220;heel of Messiah&#8221; that was bruised in the battle for our deliverance (Gen. 3:15).
