The Torah portion of Bamidbar talks about a census of the children of Israel, which include the counting of the men who are eligible to go to war. It also talks about the heads of the tribes of Israel, and the place where Yehudah was supposed to encamp. All of these things point towards the Messiah. Learn more about Bechukotai, Original Sin & The Shekinah of the Third Temple at: https://youtu.be/WOvBqgBx-_s

Parshat Bamidbar, the first portion of the book of Numbers, begins with a detailed census of the Israelites in the wilderness. It also describes the organization of the tribes and their respective positions around the Tabernacle.
The Levites are designated for specific duties related to the Tabernacle, and the Israelites prepare to journey towards the Promised Land.
In  Parshat Bamidbar, we can reflect on the significance of counting and organizing the people of Israel. Just as God counted and organized the Israelites in the wilderness, He has a purpose and plan for each one of us today.
One quote that resonates with this theme is from Psalm 139:14, which says, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." This verse reminds us that God has intricately designed and counted each one of us. We are not just a number or a statistic; we are fearfully and wonderfully made by our Creator.
Furthermore, we can also draw inspiration from the Messianic prophecy found in Isaiah 43:1, where God declares, "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine." This verse highlights the personal relationship that God desires with His people. He knows us by name, and through Yeshua the Messiah, He has redeemed us and called us to be His own.
In light of these verses, Parshat Bamidbar emphasizes the importance of recognizing our value and identity in God's eyes. Just as the Israelites were counted and organized by God, we are individually known and loved by Him. Through our relationship with Yeshua, the promised Messiah, we can find purpose, direction, and a deep sense of belonging in the Kingdom of God. Let us embrace our unique calling and position as His chosen people, walking in the footsteps of our Messiah and shining His light in the world.
