These lectures show how little we really understand of the Scriptures. To have the Hebrew words explained in their fullness adds so much to our understanding.

“To fully understand and properly apply the scriptures we MUST know how they were understood by the original recipients. The courses at Israel Study Center allow you to peel back the layers of western tradition and uncover how the words of the Bible were understood by their original (mostly Jewish) recipients.”

Not only did these classes broaden my insight and understanding of the Gospel and of Jesus the Jew, but it also made me very sad to realize how far astray misinterpretation according to our Western values have led the Church. Thank you and LORD bless you!

“Your program in Jewish Context and Culture has been a source of enlightenment and has led me to appreciate the radically Jewish nature of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Thank you for this lesson, it was really an eye opener. Enjoying this course very much.

These courses is an eyes opener as you never see them like this before! I am so thankful for Israel Bible Center.

I would like to thank you and your Centre for the teachings everyday. It is very uplifting or inspirational and I use it to teach others.

Great introduction, it helped me understand the importance and relationship between the Tora and the Gospels. Thanks!

I am so glad i am with Israel Bible Center, the substance, the profundity…now it adds up. Its intresting to note though that in Christendom there is a belief that when Christ came, he got rid of the torah..but no he was actually expounding from the Torah.

Just wanted to express my gratitude for this course. I have enjoyed and been challenged by the several courses I have already taken but John’s Gospel is one of my favorites. I so appreciated the fresh eyes this class has given me. God’s word and work is so amazing. Thank you!

Though I am a third generation christian, the spiritual and the revelations I receive here has no parallel. For many many years I just visited this site and did not join. I always believed there is a time for everything. I thank God for all the teachers. For me it’s Paul and Gamaliel experience.

This had a wonderfully strong focus on the text and the context (linguistically and historically) how it may have come to be written. The focus on meaning-then vs. meaning-now is both helpful and thought-provoking in gaining a deeper understanding of what the text may really be about.

Thank you for providing such a fresh and thought provoking lesson on the Gospel of John! I have always said that it would be awesome to find a teacher who is able to provide this information in clear, simple to understand ways.

Great teaching! This has probably been my favorite yet. I wear a talit for Shabbat each week. We honor all of GODs WORD! I so love the excitement in you!

This is our first lesson and we are blessed to be part of this course! Thank you!

I have taken Hebrew lessons in the past with several different teachers and hesitated to try yet again BUT Prof. Pinchas Shir’s way of teaching has helped me so much. Thank you and now it is up to me to memorize words.

I really appreciate the insights presented in these lessons and it helps me to see concepts I had never had explained to me before in the Jewish context.

Very effective teaching for reading and writing Hebrew.

Am enjoying these books very much sir. I am beginning to  understand things that were unfamiliar to me when I read the scriptures. How I wish to enroll for Hebrew Bible course that I learn even the more.

I am so happy with my Biblical Studies at Israel Bible Center. I am starting to see the bigger picture as I advance with the several courses I've taken.

I thank God for your anointing to teach as you do and has been a great service to understand our roots in the Tribe of Judah!

What a great course Jewish apostle Paul ll was. An outstanding job.

“I am so pleased to have access to this wonderful resource! The wealth of knowledge has inspired thoughtfulness and insight, and reignited my passion for study of scripture.”

“Thank you this was so enlightening! The instructor was great. I am so blessed by this. Thank you and may God continue in this work of yours and in my heart as I receive each lesson.”

“Please know that these classes are not only inspiring for me but each one has opened revelations and clarifications that have deepened my walk and understanding of Scripture as well as the Jewish faith and the Israeli people.”

“Thank you for the awesome lessons! Thank you for the powerful teaching that gives us tools to grow!”

“Your passion for the word of God is not only engaging but also contagious! I am grateful for this opportunity to study along with you and the other students and professors and I share what I am learning at every opportunity. The Bible is richer than I ever thought possible and I thought I loved it before!”

“I look forward every week to my classes. Really appreciate the Jewish background that provides the assumed knowledge of 1st century readership!”
