(NASB)\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/category\/bits-of-torah-truths\/\u00a0\">https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/category\/bits-of-torah-truths\/\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Torah doesn\u2019t use the exact phrase <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cask in faith,\u201d<\/em><\/span> (James 1:6) the concept of approaching God with trust and wholeheartedness is deeply embedded in its theology. Let\u2019s explore how this idea is woven into the fabric of the Torah. The core concept in James 1:6 <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cBut let him ask in faith, without doubting\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/span> James emphasizes emunah (faith\/trust) as the posture of the heart when seeking wisdom from God. The Torah may not frame it in those exact terms, but it models and commands trust-filled asking in several key ways. For example, Abraham\u2019s Trusting Petition (Genesis\u00a018:23\u201333). Here Abraham intercedes for Sodom with boldness and reverence. Though he acknowledges his dust-like status, he asks repeatedly, trusting in God\u2019s justice. This is a model of faith-filled intercession\u2014not doubting God\u2019s character, but appealing to it. Remember Moses\u2019 Plea for God\u2019s Presence (Exodus\u00a033:12\u201317)? Moses asks for divine guidance and favor, confident that God listens. God responds: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cI will do this thing also that you have spoken\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/span> which is a clear affirmation of faithful asking. In Deuteronomy\u00a04:29\u201331 the Torah\u2019s version of <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cask in faith\u201d<\/em><\/span> is to do so with wholehearted seeking, not half-hearted or double-minded. We note in Hebrew, emunah is not just belief\u2014it\u2019s relational fidelity. To <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cask in faith\u201d<\/em><\/span> is to ask as one who trusts the covenant-keeping God, not as one hedging bets. So, while James 1:6 uses Greek phrasing, it is echoing a Torah-shaped worldview. This is how the NT and James 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 Him Ask in Faith &#8211; Episode 560 James 1:6 \u05d0\u05b7\u05da\u05b0 \u05d9\u05b0\u05d1\u05b7\u05e7\u05b5\u05bc\u05e9\u05c1 \u05d1\u05b6\u05bc\u05d0\u05b1\u05de\u05d5\u05bc\u05e0\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05bc\u05d1\u05b0\u05dc\u05b4\u05d9 \u05e1\u05b8\u05e4\u05b5\u05e7, \u05db\u05b4\u05bc\u05d9 \u05d1\u05b7\u05bc\u05e2\u05b7\u05dc\u2013\u05e1\u05b8\u05e4\u05b5\u05e7 \u05d3\u05bc\u05d5\u05b9\u05de\u05b6\u05d4 \u05dc\u05b0\u05d2\u05b7\u05dc\u05b5\u05bc\u05d9 \u05d4\u05b7\u05d9\u05b8\u05bc\u05dd \u05d4\u05b7\u05e0\u05b4\u05bc\u05d3\u05b0\u05d7\u05b8\u05e4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d5\u05b0\u05e1\u05d5\u05b9\u05e2\u05b2\u05e8\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05de\u05b4\u05e4\u05b0\u05bc\u05e0\u05b5\u05d9 \u05d4\u05b8\u05e8\u05d5\u05bc\u05d7\u05b7.\u00a0 #torah\u00a0#torahwisdom\u00a0#torahtruth\u00a0#torahforlife\u00a0#torah4you\u00a0#torahtruth\u00a0 James 1:6 1:6 But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23785,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48,34],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-23783","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bits-of-torah-truths","8":"category-video"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23783","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23783"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23783\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23784,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23783\/revisions\/23784"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23785"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23783"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23783"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23783"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
