For example, Exodus\u00a018:21\u201322 Moses, following Jethro\u2019s advice, appoints capable men as leaders over the people: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cmen who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain.\u201d<\/em><\/span> These elders were entrusted with judging the people, a role of high responsibility and honor. Leviticus\u00a019:32\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cYou shall rise before the aged and show deference to the old; you shall fear your God: I am the Lord.\u201d<\/em><\/span> This commandment links reverence for elders with reverence for God, underscoring the spiritual weight of honoring those with wisdom and experience. Numbers\u00a011:16\u201317 God instructs Moses to gather seventy elders to help bear the burden of leadership. These elders receive a portion of the spirit that was upon Moses, signifying divine endorsement and communal respect. Deuteronomy 27:1 &amp; 31:9 Elders are repeatedly mentioned alongside priests in covenantal and legal matters, indicating their elevated status and the expectation of communal honor. While 1 Timothy\u00a05:17\u00a0emphasizes honor especially for those who labor in teaching, the Torah lays the groundwork by establishing elders as pillars of justice, wisdom, and communal stability\u2014worthy of respect, support, and spiritual regard. This is how the NT and Paul taught Torah, the Torah has not passed away!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bits of Torah Truths &#8211; Torah Concept in the NT: Let Worthy Elders be Doubly Honored &#8211; Episode 551 1 Timothy\u00a05:17\u00a0\u05d4\u05b7\u05d6\u05b0\u05bc\u05e7\u05b5\u05e0\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d4\u05b7\u05de\u05b5\u05bc\u05d9\u05d8\u05b4\u05d9\u05d1\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05dc\u05b0\u05e0\u05b7\u05d4\u05b5\u05dc \u05e8\u05b0\u05d0\u05d5\u05bc\u05d9\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05dc\u05b0\u05de\u05b4\u05e9\u05b0\u05c1\u05e0\u05b5\u05d4 \u05db\u05b8\u05bc\u05d1\u05d5\u05b9\u05d3, \u05d1\u05b0\u05bc\u05e2\u05b4\u05e7\u05b8\u05bc\u05e8 \u05d4\u05b8\u05e2\u05b2\u05de\u05b5\u05dc\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d1\u05b0\u05bc\u05d4\u05b7\u05d8\u05b8\u05bc\u05e4\u05b7\u05ea \u05d4\u05b7\u05d3\u05b8\u05bc\u05d1\u05b8\u05e8 \u05d5\u05bc\u05d1\u05b7\u05d4\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05d4.\u00a0 #torah\u00a0#torahwisdom\u00a0#torahtruth\u00a0#torahforlife\u00a0#torah4you\u00a0#torahtruth\u00a0 1 Timothy\u00a05:17\u00a05:17\u00a0The elders who rule well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching.
