“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations…” (Matt. 28:19-20)

 

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matt. 28:19-20)

 

Messiah Yeshua gave the Great Commission to His talmidim:

 

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matt. 28:19-20)

 

Go ye therefore, and teach - this commission was known to Jews ok. In Israel in that time were the walking rabbis who teached Torah.

 

Talmidim of Yeshua were to go and teach people about Messiah Yeshua without canceling Torah, TaNaCH: 

 

17

Think not that I am come to destroy Torah (the law), or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18

For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one yud (jot) or one tittle shall in no wise pass from Torah (the law), till all be fulfilled.

19

Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. (Matt. 5:17-19)

 

Unfortunatelly a few centuries after the apostles church canceled the festivals of Hashem (Lev. 23) etc. 

 

 yud - the smallest letter of Hebrew Alphabet

 

baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost - baptizing them in the ESSENCE of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit

 

Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you -

 

17

... if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

(Matt. 19:17)

 

15

If ye love Me, keep My commandments.

 (John 14:15)

 

21

He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me: and he that loveth Me shall be loved of My Father, and I will love him, and will manifest Myself to him.  (John 14:21)

 

14

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

 (Matt. 24:14)

 

Do you fulfill the Great Commission, to share the Good News with people?

 

21

And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,

 (Acts 14:21)

 

Do you teach many?

 

18

Therefore shall ye lay up these My words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.

19

And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

 (Deut. 11:18-19)

 

Do you teach Bible with your children?

 

In order to teach other people we need to study too:

 

8

This book of Torah (the law) shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. (Joshua 1:8)
