This week’s Jewish terminology word is: Beit Knesset!

Shalom Children of G-d! Welcome back to Marie Speaks G-d’s Grace Bible Study.

Today we are going to go over our Jewish terminology for the week.

This weeks word is: Beit Knesset! (BAYT kuh-Ness-et)

While studying one of my suggested reading books for conversion to Orthodox Judaism, I came to a chapter entitled….The Synagogue: Where Jews Assemble chapter 9 page 241 of the book: To Be A Jew by Rabbi Hayim Halevy Donin.

The book in general is in my opinion filled with a wealth of knowledge that many can gain from reading, reviewing, and or studying a Jewish way of Life.

In keeping with the word chosen for this week: It so happens one of my favorite times of day are the times when the only care I have in the world is to sit down and study Torah, Jewish History, or some Jewish religious learning. Sooooo color me happy when a came across this chapter and this word.

Fact: I wasn’t not always a lover of learning.

As a student and lover of learning… I didn’t find my passion in learning until my 30’s. In high school I loved sports and hanging out with family and friends. I did some college trying to find my way, but didn’t finish my degree. I did however love learning military topics and ways while in the Marines. I tried my best to take up every course or training a could while I served, but that was my young adults years into my mid 30’s.

Then something changed…….. I started asking G-D how could I love Him better and be a better person. Not only for myself, Him, but for and to others.

I can’t quite explain what took place, but I feel like G-D Blessed Be He, started working on me and pointing me towards learning of Him more and how to better serve Him.

After my 30th birthday…. I felt a shift. Looking back now… I have a better understanding of what the shift was and was leading me towards… Truth.

Now, I would love to say I have be the top of the class student in learning of G-D, but that would be a lie. I will say, this process has been a slow….. slow….. slow process of learning, then relearning, than correcting and removing false teachings of Rome 325, and now finally being on the right path…..Torah.

#thankyouHaShem

I wanted to share my brief journey of learning to love G-D according to His word and the struggler it has been with others to help others. I think sometimes we can be our own worst and most harsh reviewer. I think sometimes we can also judge ourself and others by our own capabilities or handicaps.

I am learning to be more gentle with myself and others on this category.

What I enjoy about studying, is I can take my time reading, researching, and in Prayer seeking Truth and Wisdom of HaShem full of Glory and Truth. I imagine if I lived near a house of study… that would be my number one spot. I would pack a kosher lunch and some tea and some coffee, head over to the local Beit Knesset, find my favorite seat, and dive in for hours. For right now this goal is a dream, but G-D willing a dream that will be for filled very very soon. My next goal…… well…. #soon G-D willing soooon.

So what is the definition of Beit Knesset?

The Synagogue: Where Jews Assemble chapter 9 page 241 of the book: To Be A Jew by Rabbi Hayim Halevy Donin states the definition as: a House of Assembly, or House of Gathering. The greek term for a Jewish House of worship- from whence we derive the word synagogue- is in fact a literal translation of Beit Knesset.

This week’s Jewish terminology word and definition as define by The JPS Dictionary of Jewish Words by Joyce Eisenberg and Ellen Scolnic 2001 copyright 1st edition.

beit knesset Hebrew (BAYT kuh-NESS-et) Literally “house of study.” A religious school or synagogue Hebrew School.

I can’t help but thinking what a beautiful gift to be able to attend such a place. I think I would feel like Bell in a wonderful castle filled with the most wonderful books. I think I have found my fairy tale. hahahahahah!

Welcome the following is a brief review of this Bible Study. 1. This BLOG post will have the resources and sources links for the Season 5 Bible Studies . 2. All Books used and Readings from during Live Bible Study can be found on Our Website: Marie Speaks GOD’s Grace. Live in the Season 5 portion of the website. 3. After Live Bible Studies have completed: I will upload to Rumble, and post link in this BLOG. How we conduct Bible Studies here: We believe G-D has called each of us to search matters out. (It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, And the glory of a king to plumb a matter. Like the heavens in their height, like the earth in its depth, Is the mind of kings—unfathomable.. Proverbs 25:2 -3) This is one reason why here at Marie Speaks G-D’s Grace Bible Study, we review several historical references and resources, of which we provide links and or screen shots for others to study at their leisure. We have been directed by G-D Wonderful and Almighty, to go Book by Book, Verse by Verse; sharing HIS Torah and Tanakh. We believe as directed by G-D Our Heavenly Father, learning and growing in Torah and Tanakh leads to understanding and wisdom; this shall only be achieved in reading, studying, and sharing HIS Word for ourselves; not relying on man. Learning, growing, and studying with OUR L-D is to be done with others that are like minded, but more so during our personal time. The BLOGs are written to assist those just beginning to study the BIBLE as a starting point. The Live or recorded Bible Studies are to cover and release opportunities and guidance, but ultimately is ones own personal responsibility to rule, govern, and be purposeful in their relationship with G-D. Proverbs 22: 4 thru 6 The effect of humility is fear of the LORD, Wealth, honor, and life. Thorns and snares are in the path of the crooked; He who values his life will keep far from them. Train a lad in the way he ought to go; He will not swerve from it even in old age. Ezekiel 18:20thru 22 The person who sins, he alone shall die. A child shall not share the burden of a parent’s guilt, nor shall a parent share the burden of a child’s guilt; the righteousness of the righteous shall be accounted to him alone, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be accounted to him alone. Moreover, if the wicked one repents of all the sins that he committed and keeps all My laws and does what is just and right, he shall live; he shall not die. None of the transgressions he committed shall be remembered against him; because of the righteousness he has practiced, he shall live. Is it my desire that a wicked person shall die?—says the L-d G-D. It is rather that he shall turn back from his ways and live. May HaShem, Blessed be He continue to Bless us all and may we all be forever written in the Book of Life. O'Amein and O'Amein Let US Begin!!!! https://www.minds.com/MarieSpeaksatParadeRest
