My only Preface to this list of resources is that this section is designed to give you resources to study the things being said in the scriptures and by bible students as a whole. I do not endorse all the teachings on these websites and do not necessarily endorse their beliefs! I do though believe for us all to learn we must examine things and determine if some, none, or all of what someone says is true according to the Word of God. So if your new please be carefule not to take everything you hear or see as truth but "study to show yourself approved" as the scripture says. If you have questions or would like to share another link please email me. Lovingneighbor@LoveOfTorah.com

You can download Dictionaries, Bible versions, Commentaries and more to add to your Free software.

The Temple Institute - This is probably the most comprehensive site on the temple and it's services on the web. The illustrated tour of the temple is awesome and puts the scriptures in perspective. They also have many other studys related to the temple and holy days. A must resource for everyone studying Torah. Highly Recommended!

Fossilized Customs - This is a great site. Lew puts out a few real eye opening books that touch on where alot of things come from, such as holidays, names, and many other things. I don't agree with everything in them but most of the stuff I do. Great site.

Wilkapedia on Torah - This is a online encyclopedia built by allowing people to contribute to it. It will have many links and definitions about Torah, Judiasm and related topics. May be very useful for people getting to know Torah.

Hebcal.com - This is a Jewish site. What I use here is the list of all the Parasha readings, and it has all the reader breakdowns or Aliyahs. Very useful.

Artscroll.com - This is a great website for Books on Torah, many from a Jewish perspective, but many good sources also for commentary. Highly Recommanded!

IBiblio.org - This is a site that has information on the Qumran Library and the Dead Sea Scrolls

ZooTorah.com - This site looks at the animal kingdom in relation to Torah from a Jewish perspective. In ramez study many parables have to do with animals or natural things so I am interested in reading on this site, although I have not read through it yet.

Ross's Matzah Recipe - Here is a short video showing you exactly how to easily make your own Matzah for Passover (Pesach). It's simple, fun and will add to your Passover (Pesach) week. Enjoy!

Posters.com - This site has some prints for sale with Torahs, not a huge selection but some might find something they would like.

Messianic / Torah Observant Believers in Messiah Bible Study

I am putting these resources as just that resources, In italics are my personal opinions on the information but you can make your own judgements. I am a believer in gettting rooted to the Torah and the Bible. Many Messianics are popping up and the trend is to blend Christian thought (it's all about being saved and evangalizing/converting) with Jewish traditions (kippah, tallit, speaking Hebrew/ cultural copying) and you end up getting a hybrid religion. I don't beleive in that form of Messianics or Torah observants. It takes many bad things of each religion most not the foundation of the religion but men's interpretations and blends them so you get a focus of salvation with tallits and channukah. But I search through them for the gems. Just my 2 cents!

Lion and Lamb Ministries - This website has many audio teachings and cd's and tapes you can buy. This is Monte Judah's website and he is a messianic Jewish believer in Messiah. He has many teachings on the two houses. I like a few of his teachings very much and not as much a fan on other of his stuff as it blends a little too much Christianity to it. Many people blindly follow these teachers and I have found flaws in many of their teachings. He also helps sells teachings of Rico Cortes (Good Insight), Eddie Chumney (Very Methodical ,Two House), Brad Scott (Word Studies), and Glenn McWilliams (Nice Teachings).

Eliyah.com - This website has many resources, Audio teachings, and forums, this site leans more to the sacred name category and has many teachings.This site is one of the main sacred name sites i first found when studying torah, their forums were very opinionated so it didn't allow for alot of discussion. I am not sure if it is still the same way. There are many good studies done but as usual there are flaws also so you can't just take it all as truth.

Wildbranch.org - This website has many studies, to read, and has a section dedicated to word studies. I haven't got to go through it all yet but check it out.

The Shofar's Call Web Radio Show - This is a site that you can download a player and either subscribe to get the Web Radio show directly sent to your computer every week avoiding the downloading or listen to it live by clicking it. They speak about the Weekly Parasha or Torah Portion in an open discussion each week. You don't have to have an IPod even though it's called a podcast. The first part is the audio reading of the Torah Portion, and "Part 2" is the discussion. You can download the player or just click the big Shofar's call logo and it will take you to where you can select the show you want to listen to. A friend of mine created this show and speaks with some others from a local synagogue on the torah portions. It is traditional messianic thought so I disagree with some of it, but check it out.

First Fruits of Zion Ministries - This is a great site, full of wonderful resources, and many books, dvd's, and audio teachings. Their Torah Club is a great resource, Sign up for thier e-drash newsletter and get commentaries on the weekly Torah Portions. They Focus on hebraic roots, and have many resources for people just learning or ministering to christians. I also suggest getting Messiah Magazine. This site blends Christianity and Jewish traditions so I disagree with many of their interpretations but they have some good materials.

Messianic Jewish Movment International - Just as it says it is a Messianic site with quite a few Book sources and things in thier store, The five jewish laws section is good both for Jews and Believers to see how to approach Jews about Messiah.

RestorationFoundation.org - Restoring the Hebraic roots to Christianity. This site has studies and articles related to Hebraic roots.

NatsarimTorahKeepers.com - This is a fellowship website in Hattiesburg MS, it has some nice articles on Torah.

TheSilverTrumpets.com - This site has some articles and Bible studies. There was some things I liked about this site, though some of the links aren't active, I read one of his studies and liked it.

TorahBytes.com - This is a Messianic Jewish Site with lots of Audio files on the weekly parshas, the only problem is they are all listed by title and not by parasha. I haven't got to check out the teachings yet.

About-Torah.org - This is a Messianic Jewish website, the nice thing is in the middle of the main page is commentaries for all the weekly readings from a Messianic Torah perspective.

OliveTreeofLife.com - This site has some atricles and Bible studies. They also sell a few books.

Messianic Bureau Institute - This website has various resources on Torah Study and education. This site leans more to Jewish Messianics and attempts to govern other organizations under one set of rules and interpretations which in my opinion limits people from studying for themselves and creates followers so not for me.

Children's section

NoGreaterJoy.org - This is one of the best resources I've found on child Raising and training. His bible study stuff is general Christian thought, but his Child training material is excellent. Buy his To Train Up a Child Book, and video it's the best, they are also inexpensive and I buy exrta's and give them out to parents when I come accross them. it's short read but so helpful. His website has tons of articles. His homeschooling stuff is good, and some of the husband wife stuff is good. More of the Wife stuff than the husband as he is not Torah observant.Highly Recommended!

Torah Tots - This is a great website for kids teachings,software, and other resources. I like the holy day sections because you can print off free coloring book pages and activities. This is a Jewish site but has many applicable resources for kids, on the holy days and in general. Check it out!

Torah Aura - This is a Jewish site with resources to Jewish childrens books, and What I liked is the link to Torah related Toys for Children, it also had a pretty big selection of Coloring books. Enjoy!

ApplesfortheTeacher.com - Great resource for Free Torah based coloring pages and other activities

Jewish Perspective Torah Study Resources

www.Torah.org - This website has quite a few resources, It is Jewish based site not Messianic and sees non-Jews as Noahide Gentiles which I don't agree with, but the great thing about the site is it has a lot of comentaries on the weekly parashas and introduces you to the midrash, talmuud, and Halacha of the Jews, which I don't keep but use for additional insite for my studies.

613.org - This is an orthodox Jewish site with lots of video and audio teachings, music and more. I use the sites to study additional insites into the weekly Torah Portions.

JTS - Jewish theological seminary. This link is to commentary on the weekly Torah Portions.

Virtual Jewish Library - This site has many resources and has a virtual tour of Israel

Virtual Beit Midrash - This is a link to a Jewish Torah Study site. It has comentaries on the weekly parashas. Good for comentary on the weeks readings though it's from a Jewish perspective.

Navigating the Bible - This is a Jewish based website that has the bible in Hebrew and has some of the Bible you can hear in the hebrew by clicking on the lines, it also has the prayers in the Hebrew you can hear it and it is translated in the English. Great way to get familiar with some of the blessings. It also has the bible in English with transliteration of the Hebrew so you can learn the Hebrew.

Torah.net - This is a Jewish website, The website doesn't have alot of content but it does have a section for commentary on the weekly parashas.

Judaism.com - This site has many resources both for study, and lots of Judaica.

Sounds of Torah - This is a project to put together or find music for each weeks parasha, with clasic and modern music. It's pretty interesting, I myself am writing worship music for each Torah portion so I found it interesting to see someone thought of the same thing. Although all my music is original vs. a compilation and this is from a jewish perspective.
