What Is Torah? The Biblical Law Explained in Plain Language | Daily Bread

Was the biblical law actually done away with—and before answering that question, do we understand what “law” means?In this episode of Daily Bread, The Mandated Reporter begins a new teaching series by examining the Hebrew concept of Torah.Torah is commonly translated as “law,” but the Hebrew word carries the broader meaning of instruction, teaching, and direction. That changes how we approach the conversation.Instead of imagining Torah only as a rigid list of rules, this lesson explores it as guidance from a Father who shows His children the way they should walk.Through Psalm 127:4–5, Proverbs 22:6, Isaiah 49:2, Joshua 1:8, and Jesus’ declaration that He is “the way,” we examine the powerful biblical imagery of:Torah as instruction and directionThe Hebrew root yarahChildren as arrowsParents as those responsible for shaping, sharpening, aiming, and sendingTraining children according to their purpose and callingThe connection between “the way,” the Word, and JesusWhy Torah matters when discussing whether the law was abolishedWhy Joshua was commanded to keep the Book of the Law in his mouth and meditate on itWhy understanding Torah must come before debating Paul, legalism, lawlessness, sacrifices, or biblical feast daysThis is only the beginning.Upcoming lessons will examine questions such as:Who is Jesus in relation to Torah? Was the law abolished? Can Paul abolish something YAH established? What is lawlessness? What does Jesus mean when He speaks about “the way”? And what should believers understand about YAH’s commandments today?From The King’s News Desk, this is Daily Bread with The Mandated Reporter.Helping you understand the Bible in plain language.Reporting the King’s News, one Scripture at a time.HELPFUL LINKSWant more information?• Website: https://themandatedreporter.org• The Mandated Reporter Remote Learning Program: https://the-mandated-reporter-s-schoo...• Subscribe: @themandatedreporter• Instagram: /angelanicolewilliams• Email: howcanwehelp@tmrjmunchkinmerch• One Path to the Way: www.onepathtotheway.wordpress.com• The Work From Home Advisor: www.theworkfromhomeadvisor.wordpress.com• Merch: www.munchkinmerch.com• “I’m Not a Scholar; I’m a Disciple” Merch: https://www.spreadshirt.com/shop/desi...BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS• Spiritual Contamination: Have You Been Exposed? by The Mandated Reporter: https://amzn.to/4hqrYRL• ESV Journaling Study Bible: https://amzn.to/4wIc9wx• NLT Spiritual Growth Bible: https://amzn.to/45v0eXj• Monthly Prayer Journal: Insights and Revelations by The Mandated Reporter: https://amzn.to/4bzpfnDFIND THE DAILY BREAD PODCAST• Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/033vvkx...• Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/081...• MunchkinMerch Podcast: https://www.tmrjmunchkinmerch.com/pod...• Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...DESIGN RESOURCE• Try Canva Pro free for 7 days: https://www.canva.com/join/pdb-mzq-ysrSome links may be affiliate links.
