Dr. Jay and Amazing Larry continue their look at Remez … how Rabbis teach the Bible in shorthand. Remez means to “allude” to something, usually a specific section of the Hebrew Scriptures, via a phrase, word, or even an action. In today’s episode, we dig into the Book of Matthew that uses the reference to “God’s Servant” to reveal Jesus’ purpose when He came to provide salvation to humanity.

Learning how to read the Bible is crucial for every Christian. 1st Century rabbis taught the Bible in shorthand using a method called “remez.” With one phrase, one word, and even one action, a teacher could refer to a vast amount of scripture, saving time and creating, “Aha!” moments for his class. See how Jesus used this technique to reveal profound truths as He was being crucified

The Bible is full of surprises. Take imprecatory prayers in the Psalms, for example. Some of David’s imprecatory prayers call down curses on God’s enemies. But Jesus told us to pray for our enemies. How do we square the apparent contradiction? You’ll be shocked and burst out laughing as you listen.

Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA, was assassinated on September 10, 2025. His death has proved what a tremendous influence the Lord exerted through his life, ministry, and political activity. Is this the end of his ground-breaking movement to reach today’s young people? Not likely, because of the Grain of Wheat principle in John 12:24. We’ve only seen the start.

Is Christianity a threat to society or just perceived as a threat? The Roman empire thought Christianity was a threat because Christians wouldn’t honor all deities, only their Lord Jesus. Therefore, Christians were seen as too exclusive and a threat to the social order … much like today.
