ABOUT ME and THIS PODCAST: I am Avinoam ("Avi") ben Mordechai Marcus. I am an old veteran of the radio broadcast industry. For me, radio programming was very different when I started in the early 1970s as a California "rock jock" radio personality and later in the 1980s as a Colorado radio programmer and secular and religious content talk show host. I selectively do live on-air radio programming where I find opportunities but ultimately, whatever I pursue with my years of radio broadcast tra ...

Qumran Zadokites and their Allies (7 of 7): their New Covenant Writings and First-Century Judaism (7 of 7)
50:00
We read from the Hebrew text of Psalm 110:4 - "Yehovah has made AN OATH and will He will not be comforted [with any other decree], “You are a Cohen or Priest forever through The WORD of Melchizedek.” English translations usually express this as “The Order of Melchizedek,” but based on the context of Psalm 110:4, it is not about a religious or spiri…

Qumran Zadokites and their Allies (6 of 7): Their Distinctive New Covenant or New Testament Terminology
50:00
Beginning around 150 years before Yeshua, the Pharisee was called a Hasid because the Hebrew term means a “loyalist.” In other words, Pharisees were political and religious loyalists supportive of the family dynasty of the Hasmoneans. The Tzadokim, or Sadducees, relates to the term Zadok, which was a different group of priests not related to the So…

Qumran Zadokites and their Allies (5 of 7): The Rise, Fall, and their Rising Again with the Fourth-Day Resurrection of Lazarus

What we know is that the Levitical Sadducees were not legally of the bloodline of Aaron to Eleazar to Phinchas to Tzadok. Rather, they were more likely of the line of Aaron’s son Ithamar, whose priestly line ended in the days of King Solomon, but they continued seeking priestly legitimacy going back to the days of the Hasmoneans. Consider that they…

Qumran Zadokites and their Allies (4 of 7): Analysis and History Relating to the Most Holy of Daniel 9:24 and Yeshua/Melchizedek of Genesis 14:18

Yeshua (Jesus) was known by three titles: 1. The Word made Flesh (John 1:14) 2. Melchizedek, King of the Celestial Kingdom of Shalem (John 18:36) 3. Melchizedek, Priest of the Kingdom of Shalem (Genesis 14:18) From Genesis 14:18 to Daniel 9:24 to Revelation 21:2-3, the message remains the same because Yeshua is the same yesterday, today, and foreve…

Within the priestly line of Tzadok, there were several well-known priests, according to Nehemiah 11:11, which included such personalities such as Jeremiah the Prophet (Jeremiah 1:1) and Ezra the Priest/Scribe (Ezra 7:1-5).

Analysis of the Passion Week Timeline (PART 22) Ascension, First Fruits, and the Omer Event 27

Let us examine the biblical terminology often called “First Fruits” or “Bikkurim.” This terminology is often confused with another ceremony called the Omer Wave-Sheaf offering, more accurately referred to in biblical parlance as Reisheet Katzir – Harvest of the First Cutting of the Grain. "First Fruits" is about the scriptural festival of Shavuot o…

Once again, remember that in Pharisaic and Second Temple times, two different festival calendars were operationally running side by side. 1) The Pharisaic and Sadducean traditional sighted moon calendar. One day always advances to the next day, beginning with sunset. 2) The House of Tzadok priestly calculated sevens' solar calendar. One day always …

If we want to understand the timing of Yeshua's Third-Day resurrection, we must first understand how the priestly families of the House of Tzadok ("Zadok") defined a day. For the priestly House of Tzadok (Ezekiel 44:23-24), a 24-hour day was measured from sunrise to sunrise. For the Pharisee Separatists, a 24-hour day was measured from sunset to su…

When Bible expositors unpack Matthew 12:1-8, they often conclude that showing someone compassion and mercy overrides the Sabbath's biblical laws and many other laws.
