From Dawn - Targum Oops?
Are you among the several listeners who were following along with your brand-new copy of Tsiyon Edition Targum Isaiah while listening to Program 325: Targum Isaiah Reveals a Divine Messiah? If so, you are probably wondering why some of the verses I read on the program didn't seem to follow along with your copy. Let's solve the mystery.

The original text of Targum Isaiah by Tsvi Nassi, which Eliyahu and I read on the program, was a very old copy, difficult to read, and full of Roman numerals for chapter and verse references. The very fact that it was so old and difficult to read was a major factor in Eliyahu and I deciding, “We need to update this Targum into a modern, more readable font face and then publish it so everyone can have access to it!”

However, as a result of the difficulty in reading the print some of the Targum Isaiah references in program #325 were regrettably misspoken. We heard from some of you who wanted to follow along but couldn't, so pointed out needed corrections in the Targum Isaiah references.

Here are those corrections: At 24:00 minutes into program #325, I am reading from Targum Isaiah 30:30; at 32:00 min from Targum Isaiah 43:5-7; at 38:15 min from Targum Isaiah 44:24-25; and at 44:30 min from Targum Isaiah 49:1. Hopefully that will clear up any confusion you may have in reading along with the program. Thanks to each of you who let us know; We appreciated hearing from you and knowing you are already enjoying your Tsiyon Edition Targum Isaiah copy!

Listener Comment - Pagan Celebrations
All of your weekly lectures are commendable and informative, but one of my favorites is “Messiah’s Sukkot Birthday #302” because it was incredibly biblical, scholarly and fundamentally sound to the extent that Christendom has been “sheepishly” celebrating Yeshua Messiah’s birthday on the most venerable day of the Sun, the "holiest" pagan holiday of December 25th. Such manipulation and deception by the evil ones, those whose philosophy is the belief that man can become god, just like Lucifer in the Garden of Eden, have misled Christendom into believing that the Sabbath is on Sunday rather than ..like Yeshua himself obeyed and told the Pharisees, “For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath” (Mt 12:8).

..Since Yeshua Messiah said, ““If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32) and since Christendom will be celebrating the crucifixion and Resurrection of Yeshua Messiah next week (and since “Easter” derives from the pagan god Ishtar and its slew of rituals, Easter bunny, egg hunting, and the like, are pagan in origin as “SUN” worshipers claimed that Talmus (Tammus) the Babylonian “sun” god arose from the dead and became the “Sun”, may you please enlighten us in a lecture with scriptural evidence why Yeshua’s crucifixion could not have taken place on “Good Friday” and why His Resurrection could not have resurrected on Sunday, because that would mean that He resurrected within 2 days not 3 days as He Himself had promised?

My family now celebrates the birth of Yeshua Messiah on the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles because of your overwhelming scriptural evidence in your lecture of “Messiah’s Sukkot Birthday #302.”
