Teachings drawn from the five books of Yishai Köln — the Tanakh, the Oracles of El, and the questions people bring to them.
The Gate Is Open
The gate is open and soon will be shut. Yeshayahu speaks of a key that opens where none can shut, and shuts where none can open. Who is given it, and why does it matter now?
Paul’s Mistake
Paul served the Seat of Moshe until he crossed the line. His letters warned the Goyim against conceit — and then became the very thing that gave it to them.
The Men Who Forged the Path
In Hebrew, elohim is not only a name of G‑d. Moshe was made elohim to Pharaoh. Seven Elohim tells of seven such men and their wives, and how they forged the path for the coming Messiah.
Six Millennia of Hope
Nearly six thousand years of waiting have not worn the hope of Yisrael away. Yirmeyahu gave it a name, and three times a day it is still prayed for in the Siddur.
The Straight Path of the Sulam
Yaakov saw a ladder set on the earth with its top in heaven. The Seder of the Tongue of G‑d is a guide to that ladder — the Straight Path of the Sulam.
Why I Left the Church
I was a christian. I left in search of the devotion of my fathers, and I found Judaism. This is how it happened, and why I now teach what I teach.
The Torah was given to the gods of Yisrael, only.
“I said: ye are elohim.” Who were the elohim of Yisrael, and what does it mean that the Torah was given to them?
Salvation by grace through faith?
The church’s most famous formula, held up against what the Tanakh itself says about righteousness, repentance and deeds.
The Gentiles Have Never Repented
Repentance in Hebrew is teshuvah — a return. To return, you must know where you came from. What would it mean for the nations to return?
The Secret of Obedience
At Sinai Yisrael answered, “All that HaShem has spoken we will do, and we will hear.” The order of those words holds a secret.
What You Don’t Know That You Don’t Know.
Every reader brings a lens to the text. The hardest one to see is the one you were handed before you could read.
Judaism today vs Lives of the Avot
Avraham had no siddur, no synagogue and no Talmud. What did his devotion look like, and what would he recognise in ours?
Should I convert to Judaism?
It is an old custom to turn the would-be convert away more than once. Here is why, and the questions to ask before you knock.
What is Salvation?
In the Tanakh, yeshu’ah is rescue: from enemies, from exile, from trouble. Start there, and the question changes.
Who Should Have a “Bible?”
The Tanakh was given in Hebrew to a people. What happens to a text when it is translated, bound and handed to the world?
The Beautiful Noachide Life
Under the rainbow every human being already has a covenant with G‑d. The Noachide life is not second best; it is the life the nations were given.
What can a Gentile do?
Pray, learn, give, keep the seven laws, uphold justice and stand with Yisrael. A practical place to start.

How christianity has nullified the promise of Abraham — and why the letters of Paul, written to the Goyim, became the blindness he warned of.
Robbed of the PromiseRobbed of the Promise
How christianity has nullified the promise of Abraham
The irony of christianity is Paul's mistake.
Paul stated that in the times of the Goyim, blindness will come to the lost sheep of Yisrael. I agree. But the blindness comes from Paul's own writings. Paul served the Seat of Moshe until he crossed the line. He acknowledged the headship of our people. His mistake was his letters that fell into the hands of the Goyim and were later used to give the Goyim conceit, the thing he warned them about. Instead, christianity is a beast which serves the lower nature of the pig of Edom: on the inner he is grotesque and a fowl beast and on the outer, he appears to be koshrut. This title demonstrates the fallacy of christianity and the claim that it is G-d's chosen instrument.
