YHWH's Instructions

The list of YHWH’s instructions below has been extracted directly from the Torah, reading in the order in which they first occur in the text, and we have given each one a status in accordance with the following traffic-light scheme:

applies to us and is easy for us to do today in our modern lives.
means we think that this still applies in principle but there are reasons why it can't be carried out or that it needs further discussion.
means this is something that we no longer need to do because Yeshua has done it once and for all of us.

Please note that this page is a work in progress. You can read more about this project here.
