Listen "The Scapegoat, the Scarlet Wool & Messiah—Revealed in Acharei Mot - Dallas Messianic Congregation"

Episode Synopsis

This week’s Torah portion, Acharei Mot, reveals one of the most mysterious and haunting rituals in all of Scripture—the ceremony of the scapegoat. Two goats were chosen. One marked “for the LORD.” The other, “for Azazel.” One offered in the Temple. The other… sent to die in the wilderness.But who—or what—is Azazel? 🤔Is it just a cliff? A fallen angel? A name for Satan? Or is it something deeper?👀 In this week’s drash, we explore how the scapegoat ritual isn’t just ancient history—it’s a prophetic shadow of the Messiah. From the scarlet wool turning white, to the doors of the Temple opening on their own, to signs that began 40 years before the Temple’s destruction (the same year Yeshua was crucified), the evidence is staggering.▶️ Watch now: https://youtu.be/DLW5AXaLMXAYou’ll never see the Day of Atonement the same way again. The goat that carried Israel’s sins… and the Messiah who carries ours.
