Torah Pearls – Achrei Mot – Leviticus 16:1-18:30 – Nehemia Gordon & Keith Johnson
In this episode, we centre in on the Day of Atonement and discuss the two goats and what they represent. Listen in as Nehemia recounts the miracle of the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Also, Keith tells of his recent adventures beneath and upon the Temple Mount, plus a bonus story about his meeting with the Pope!
Join us for this year’s Tanakh Tour of Israel!

The “All-Seeing Eye” is also known as the “eye of god”; not our God but the pagan sun god. So the holy sepulchre can not be the center of the world. I believe not no absolutely sure, but I think the Book of Enoch tells where the center of the world is , which I believe is where Eden used to be. Just my own thoughts.
thank you so much for posting these torah portions for free download we are very thankful to be able to listen here in mexico, Abraham and Elisabeth Rabadan and our children Abraham, Ana, Adaya, and Chasya
I sincerely appreciate this program and plan to support this ministry soon.
As great as it is, I would like to offer the following as constructive criticisms:
1. Revealing truth and the contrast between the truth and error will help every listener. While it is useful to point out the errors within certain traditions, it seems counterproductive to belittle or berate those who teach or follow those traditions – even when doing so seems intentionally misleading.
2. It seems the program is becoming unbalanced. At times, Keith Johnson is not allowed to make opening remarks and his comments are spoken-over or somewhat belittled. It might be helpful to keep track of the time given to each of your comments (sort of like more structured debates) as to be fair, more inclusive, and less rude. Each perspective is equally important for the format of the program, which is a great part of what makes the program appealing.
3. While I enjoy and appreciate the humorous times, it seems too much time is used for “picking on” each other resulting in not having enough time to explore as fully the richness of the topics.
Thanks again for offering such a wealth of information freely. I look forward to hearing more.
i was told that according to tradition, this goat was pushed off a cliff? have you ever heard of this?
I wanted to say my family, & we really enjoy going over the Torah with you all!…., we also enjoy & delite in your 3 different backgrounds, & how you all come together in carefully studying the scripture…& we really enjoy the gentle midrashing going on. =-) We come here because we are so sick of being preached at, & with the wrong stuff, and the typical strick structure that some organizations place on learning scripture. It is nice to come to this site and let your hair down and just listen to the teachings without having to worry about a structured program. I feel our family benefits from your approach to the scriptures more than any other way. Thanks for all that you do and please don’t change the way you do things on this program. We have made your program a part of our Shabbat every week and listen as a family. Sometimes our family is spread out through out the world due to work, but we all still listen to your program where ever we all are and discuss it. It brings us together and helps us stay focused on the weekly readings. You guys are a great inspiration, and wonderful teachers! May Y.H.V.H. Bless you 3 gentlemen, & people who put this program together… =-)
. Could the ‘Scapegoat’ picture the Saviour Removing our sins completely out of sight. As far as the East is from the West. Never to be seen again. Heb.10v17. Jer’31v34.
Looking at the Hebrew letters for Azazal
Ayin = eyes
counsel of Godhead with heaven’s decision
Zayin as the hammer of God to execute the judgement
Aleph = The head, tree of life
Christ was crucified on a tree
Zayin as the nails, where our sins were nailed to the cross
Lamedh = ox goad. It is finished, our sins are paid for!!
Our sins have been removed forever.
Praise YHVH for His wisdom and wonderful works!!
