Several years ago, Michael Rood was working on an apparent contradiction in the book of Matthew that had haunted him for years. He approached Nehemia Gordon, a textual scholar at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, who agreed to use his linguistic expertise to investigate the problem.
The revelations that ensued are thrilling the serious seekers of scriptural truth. Ancient Hebrew manuscripts of the Gospel of Matthew, guarded for centuries in the covert archives of Jewish synagogues, are now being brought to light. Early "church fathers" stated that Matthew wrote his Gospel in Hebrew, and now the seemingly contradictory Gospel records which have confused Greek Bible scholars for centuries, are finally harmonized in the Hebrew Matthew.
This 5-hour series details the epic discovery that clarifies the Gospel of the Kingdom that Yahshua taught his followers by both word and example. This revelation is shaking the Christian and Messianic Jewish world and is delivering believers from the nicolaitan system that Yahshua exposed and conquered -- yet is alive and well in the manipulative world of man-made religion.
Join Biblical historian Michael Rood and his guest, eminent Hebrew scholar Nehemia Gordon, for this exciting multi-media presentation: Raiders of the Lost Book - Discoveries in the Ancient Hebrew Texts of the Gospel of Matthew.
is Jesus not simply saying do what the pharisees say so you don't get into trouble, ala "render unto caesar?"

I had heard of the Oral Torah, but I never knew what it was until now! Thank you for clearing that up.

@MOE435 The Talmud asks on the blessing how can we say 'commanded us" when its only a rabbinic made law....

Respond to this video... As posted before his very issues are raised in the very Talmud itself...as a so-called Scholar you should be able to read the origin hebrew text of the Talmud:
מַאי מְבָרֵךְ? מְבָרֵךְ: "אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ לְהַדְלִיק נֵר שֶׁל חֲנֻכָּה".*) וְהֵיכָן צִוָּנוּ? רַב אַוְיָא אָמַר: (דברים יז) מִ"לֹּא תָסוּר". רַב נְחֶמְיָה אָמַר: (שם לב) "שְׁאַל אָבִיךָ וְיַגֵּדְךָ, זְקֵנֶיךָ וְיֹאמְרוּ לָךְ".

@MOE435 אָמַר רַב יְהוּדָה, אָמַר שְׁמוּאֵל: בְּשָׁעָה שֶׁתִּקֵּן שְׁלֹמֹה עֵרוּבִין וּנְטִילַת יָדַיִם, יָצְתָה בַּת־קוֹל וְאָמְרָה: (משלי כג) "בְּנִי, אִם חָכַם לִבֶּךְ, יִשְׂמַח לִבִּי גַם אָנִי". (שם כז) "חֲכַם בְּנִי וְשַׂמַּח לִבִּי, וְאָשִׁיבָה חֹרְפִי דָּבָר"

@MOE435 Nechamiah might be a scholar in his sense, but is by far a Scholar on any Rabbinic Talmudic interpretations!!

@LibertyTreeGal (cont) Anyways, the issue of hand rituals/washing has no connection whatsoever with the Levites washing, neither does it contradict the commandment of not 'adding' to torah. As long as it is not claimed as an "addition' to the Torah, Rabinical Laws are mainly based on oral interp. yes, with its lineage traced directly from Ezra the scribe, you may have to add to your "studies". And no, I have not studied any of the NT regarding the above, only scripture and Josephus (cont)

@LibertyTreeGal FYI, I don't know what exactly you have studied? "outside" of scripture that even has any legit credibility, in the sense of 'Karaism'. And the "names", IDK what you referring to, other than calling him an ignorant in regard to Talmudic Laws. Which I strongly believe is the core root of his belief. The issue of 'Karaite vs Rabinic has been going on forever, in any case, they too, have been interpreting the scriptures to their liking. (cont)

@MOE435 Have you studied the history of the Pharisees, Scribes and Sadducees outside of the scriptures? From the time of Ezra on? I have and I absolutely disagree with you. I am so sorry you are calling names, to me it absolutely shuts my ears to anything you have to say.

@LibertyTreeGal FYI, hand washing is by far based upon the washing of the temple, which btw, involved both, the hand and the feet. It was king Solomon who enacted it, and was not intended as an 'addition' to the Torah. "Adding to the Torah is ONLY when it is either claimed as part of the Torah, or is added to an existent commandment e.g. five tzitzit to four (see Numbers). The mere fact that someone is "raised" as an Orthodox, is not an auto Scholar definer! I know plenty of Ignoramus orthodx
