(NASB) <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/category\/bits-of-torah-truths\/ \">https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/category\/bits-of-torah-truths\/ <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Torah repeatedly commands covenantal love and responsibility toward one\u2019s <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cbrother\u201d<\/em><\/span> (fellow covenant member), which directly parallels John\u2019s command that <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201che who loves God must love his brother also\u201d<\/em><\/span> (1 John 4:21). &#8211; <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Torah Parallels to \u201cLove Your Brother\u201d<\/span> &#8211; Leviticus 19:17\u201318 Reject Hatred, Love Your Neighbor, this is the clearest Torah foundation. <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cBrother\u201d<\/em><\/span> here means fellow covenant member. John\u2019s command builds directly on this, extending it to the fellowship of believers in Christ. Deuteronomy 15:7\u201311 Care for the Poor Among Your Brothers, note that brother is expressed in tangible care and generosity which anticipates 1 John 3:17\u201318, which warns against closing one\u2019s heart to a brother in need. Deuteronomy 22:1\u20134 Guard Your Brother\u2019s Well-Being, brother here means active responsibility for one another\u2019s welfare. John echoes this ethic: love is not in word only, but in deed and truth. Leviticus 25:35\u201336 Support Your Brother in Hardship, brother here requires sacrificial support, not exploitation. This parallels John\u2019s insistence that love is proven in action, not sentiment. Exodus 32:27\u201329 Brotherhood in Covenant Loyalty, brother here is defined by shared covenant faithfulness, just as John ties love for God and love for brother together. Observe how the Torah defines <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cbrotherly love\u201d<\/em><\/span> as rejecting hatred, caring for the poor, protecting one another, and showing loyalty to God\u2019s covenant. John universalizes this within the church, teaching that love for God is inseparable from love for fellow believers. The ethic is continuous: the Torah plants the seed, and the NT brings it to full expression in the Messiah! This is how John taught Torah in the NT text, the Torah has not passed away!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bits of Torah Truths &#8211; #Torah Concept in the NT: Love Your Brother &#8211; Episode 648 1 John 4:21 \u05de\u05b4\u05e6\u05b0\u05d5\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d6\u05b9\u05d0\u05ea \u05e7\u05b4\u05d1\u05b7\u05bc\u05dc\u05b0\u05e0\u05d5\u05bc \u05de\u05b4\u05de\u05b6\u05bc\u05e0\u05bc\u05d5\u05bc, \u05e9\u05b6\u05c1\u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05d4\u05b5\u05d1 \u05d0\u05b6\u05ea \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d9\u05b9\u05d0\u05d4\u05b7\u05d1 \u05d2\u05b7\u05bc\u05dd \u05d0\u05b6\u05ea \u05d0\u05b8\u05d7\u05b4\u05d9\u05d5. #torah #torahwisdom #torahtruth #torahforlife #torah4you #torahtruth 1 John 4:21 4:21 And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24108,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48,34],"tags":[249,123,250,219,251],"class_list":{"0":"post-24106","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bits-of-torah-truths","8":"category-video","9":"tag-biblicalbrotherhood","10":"tag-covenantfaithfulness","11":"tag-loveinaction","12":"tag-messianicethics","13":"tag-torahlove"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24106","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=24106"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24106\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24107,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24106\/revisions\/24107"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24108"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24106"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24106"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.matsati.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
