Yeshua was the Torah-Word of Elohim that was Elohim, and who came to earth to live in flesh form (John 1:1\u201314).<\/p>\n

He was the I am<\/i> that was before Abraham (John 8:58)<\/p>\n

Rom 10, Yeshua is the ultimate expression, end goal of fullest fulfillment of Torah (Rom 10:4). Paul equates Yeshua, the Living Torah, with the written Torah of Moses (verses 5\u201310). In Rom 10:11 through 21, Paul goes on to relate this very truth to being the central message of the gospel that Isaiah prophesied (Isa 52:7) would be preached to redeem both houses of Israel to Yeshua their Messiah.<\/p>\n

Yeshua, was the Torah-Light-Word led who instructed, fed and watered Israel through the wilderness.<\/p>\n

1 Cor 10:4, Yeshua was spiritual Rock that fed the Israelites.<\/p>\n

Acts 7:38, Yeshua was the one who spoke from Mt. Sinai and who was with the angel that led the Israelites in the wilderness.<\/p>\n

Yeshua is the Living Manna (John 6:48\u201351).<\/p>\n

Yeshua equates himself with Torah (John 6\u2014manna).<\/p>\n

Yeshua referring to himself as the Light of the world (John 8:12, 9:5; 12:46) urged his disciples to believe in that Light and to become children of Light (John 12:35\u201336).<\/p>\n

Believers are not only called to emulate their Master and become light as he is light, but they are called to put on the \u201carmor of light\u201d which is likened to walking in righteousness (Rom 12:12\u201313) after the similitude of their Father in heaven who is called the Father of lights (Jas 1:17) and who dwells in unapproachable light (1 Tim 6:16). This is the same light that caused Moses\u2019 face to radiate with light upon descending Mt. Sinai after having been in the presence of YHVH (Exod 34:33, 35).<\/p>\n

In the Gospel of Matthew, Yeshua urged his followers to be lights in this dark world and to be a candlestick on a hill (Matt 5:14\u201316).<\/p>\n
