He was so informative. He told the people who came, many of whom do not embrace our Hebrew roots, that if all you do is read the Bible yearly you miss so much when you don't also study the history and the culture of that time. I would agree that it truly does make things much clearer.
And one very interesting thing he said he himself just noticed this past week as he was reading the account of the crucifixion.
During the Passover Seder we have 4 cups to drink from.
The cup of Sanctification, judgment/plagues (which we don't drink from this cup, this is the cup Yeshua was saying if it's possible it could pass from me but Your will be done and that cup of G-D's wrath is almost filled up again and this time Yeshua is not drinking it for us), redemption, and then praise....here see:
Exodus 6:6-7
6Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the L-RD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments:
7And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a G-D: and ye shall know that I am the L-RD your G-D, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
Notice I also bolded stretched out arm because picture an arm/s strectched out and then recall Yeshua on the execution stake.
Powerful isn't it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was pointed out to us for the first time this year too. We had our family seder but then we hosted a seder with our "intro to Hebrew Roots Bible study group", complete with 50 people (yikes!). It was amazing!! Our study group leader was talking about the specific word used for arm and how the Passover lambs were roasted on the pomegranate staves, he was talking about bridegroom language, etc. It was really good! I wish I was able to keep a copy of his haggadah. :)
