Prophecies on the Restoration of the Nation of Israel

Taught by Messianic Rabbi Jeff Adler, Sha Arey Yeshua Congregation

This four-week class will meet on Mondays, beginning September 28th, 2026 at 7:00 PM ET.

The prophets, serving as God’s spokesmen, rebuked the people of Israel/Judah for rebellion and idolatry, forecasting terrible judgements. But, it’s important to realize that they also promise restoration and blessings. We will examine some of these in Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel.

The cost per student is $99.

For this class, we will use the book Emotionally Healthy Spiritually, by Peter Scazzero, to help you recognize where you are emotionally, so you can forgive those who hurt you, heal by breaking the power of your past,  and become your authentic self and a more spiritually mature follower of Yeshua. 

The Cost is $99 per student.

Biblical Hebrew 

Fall Seminar: Messianic Jewish Liturgy

Taught by Dr. Lucille Van Alstine, Worship Center Evans

     

Wednesday evenings at 7:00 PM ET, beginning October 7, 2026.

This eight-week interactive seminar investigates the theological and linguistic architecture of Messianic Jewish liturgy by examining Shabbat (the Sabbath) as a convenantal, creation-centric, and eschatological framework. Guided by Dr. Hollisa Alewine’s foundational text, and other sources, students will decode crucial Hebrew vocabulary and traditional prayer structures to trace the continuity between the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament.  Through targeted weekly projects and multimedia linguistic applications, participants will bridge the gap between language acquisition and active liturgical practice.  The curriculum evaluates academic progress entirely on weekly participation, encouraging deep communal reflection of the countercultural rhythm of sacred time.  Ultimately, this eight-session online course empowers students to cultivate enhanced liturgical literacy from a Messianic  and Judaic-Christian perspective.

The cost: $120.00/student

Biblical Hebrew 1 – Begins in October 2026

This class is a simple guide to learning Biblical Hebrew.  It consists of a series of twelve classes, which begin with a thorough study of the Hebrew Alphabet and concludes with action word analysis.  The goal is to translate Biblical Hebrew, not memorize it.  This course begins on Thursday, October 1, 2026 at 1:00 PM ET. 

Cost: $120/student

Biblical Hebrew 2 

Vocabulary Building. Students master sentence structure.  The goal in Hebrew II is a vocabulary enrichment.  Students are exposed to twenty new words each class and practice reading scripture.  The book of choice is Ruth.  History and literature combine to bring Hebrew students a deep understanding of the Tanakh’s almost poetic form.

Prayerbook Hebrew

The prayerbook, or Siddur, is the most widely used book in Jewish life. Although most prayerbooks found in English-speaking countries include an English translation, nothing can replace the immediate experience of reading Hebrew. Prayerbook Hebrew the Easy Way will be used with this course to help students translate and understand Hebrew prayers. 

Tuesdays at 1:00 PM ET, starting October 6th, 2026

The Cost:  $120/student

Biblical Hebrew 3    

Students focus on mastering biblical verb structure.  The Book of Ruth is finished.  A new text is introduced by world renowned writers Miles V. Van Pelt and Gary D. Pratico titled Graded Reader of Biblical Hebrew: A Guide to Reading the Hebrew Bible.  Students will take two weeks in text overview in preparation for Biblical Hebrew IV.

Biblical Hebrew 4    

Immersion.  Students will go deeper into the text.  In this manner, biblical Hebrew grammar will be reviewed.  At this level, Hebrew instruction is intermediary–grammatical practice is combined with narrative and poetic genres.  The Tanakh is used for Hebrew IV study–the Law!  Rarely do biblical readers have this opportunity to study Hebraic law in its original language.
