Romans from a Torah Covenant Perspective – Chapter 15

Romans 15:1 We then that are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Romans 15:2 Let every one of us please his neighbor for his tov and edification. Romans 15:3 For even Moshiach pleased not Himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached You fell on Me. We have to be careful of the value judgments of translators in v. 1. ‘Ton adunaton’ ‘the weak’  or ‘the powerless’  speaks to those who’s conciences are ‘seared’ ‘sensitive in conscience,’ it has more to do with how we react together within community. In summation;  we all have a responsibility to one another within the faith to be sensitive of the concurrence and sensitivities of one another if we’re ever to build a community. Romans 15:4 For all things which were written in the Tanach were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Holy Scriptures/Keetvay HaKadosh might have hope!  ‘Ton graphon’ without doubt is referring to the Old Testament and the Law of Moses! Romans 15:5 Now the tvkt of patience and comfort, grant you the ability to regard one another with equal worth according to Moshiach gauvh:  Romans 15:6 That you may with one mind and one mouth esteem vuvh, even the Abba of our Savior gauvh ha Moshiach. Exodus 24:3 So Moses came and told the people all the words of יהוה  as well as all the ordinances. All the people answered with one voice/‘qol echad and said, “All the words which יהוה  has spoken, we will do.”…..v.7 He took the Book of the Covenant and read it in the hearing of the people. Again they said, “All that יהוה has spoken, we will do and obey.” Romans 15:7 Therefore be friendly and bear one another’s burdens, as Moshiach also brought us close to the tifereth of vuvh.  Where in the Tanakh did the congregation ‘speak in one voice’ ‘qol echad and were ‘brought close to the tifereth of יהוה?’ Exodus 24.9 Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up. 10. They saw the Elohim of Israel, and under His feet was something like a pavement of sapphire, as clear as the very heavens. Romans 15:8 Now I say that gauvh ha Moshiach was an Eved to Yisrael for the emet of vuvh, to confirm the promises made to our ahvot:  So, in context Paul is without doubt proclaiming the Malki_Tzedik promises of our fathers have been obtained and accomplished by Yahuhsa! We’re to be keeping the BoC Torah. relying on the Tanakh for guidance, eating kosher, keeping the shabbats and feast days now that we’re in covenant with Messiah standing in once voice and witnessing His glory from the Mountain as the Israel of God (Gal 6:16) Romans 15:9 And that the nations might all esteem vuvh for His rachamim; as it is written, For this cause I will confess You among the nations, and sing to Your Name. (Ps. 18.49) Romans 15:10 And again He says, Gilah, you nations, with His people. (LXX Deut. 32.43 after the Golden Calf breach יהוה extracts vengeance upon Israel, the song is a witness against Israel for breaking the BOC, but ultimately Yahusha will atone for the people of the land and usher in the Malki reign). Romans 15:11 And again, Hallel the Master vuvh, all you nations; and laud Him, all you people. (Ps. 117.1) Romans 15:12 And again, Yeshayahu says, There shall be a Root of Yishai, and He that shall rise to reign over the nations; in Him shall the nations trust. ( LXX Isa. 11:10 has, ‘‘to raise up by brining back to life’, whereas the Masoretic hides the fact that Yahusha’s Malki reign is innately connected to His sacrifice and subsequent resurrection.) Romans 15:13 Now the tvkt of tikvah fill you with all simcha and shalom in believing, that you may abound in your tikvah, through the power of the Ruach Hakodesh. Romans 15:14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my Yisraelite brothers, that you also are full of much tov, filled with all da’at, able also to admonish one another. Romans 15:15 Nevertheless, Yisraelite brothers, I have written more boldly partially to
