In this teaching from Shabbat, October 24, 2026, Zac Crater teaches on the Torah portion Lech Lecha, from Genesis 12-17. He explains how this Torah portion contains key concepts that will continue throughout the entire Bible, such as the concept of faith. He uses many passages, especially from Romans, Galatians, and Hebrews, to explain that faith is not merely a belief in one’s mind or even the Hebrew concept of firmness or steadfastness. Rather, faith is a demonstrated firmness in the hope of God’s promises. Biblical faith always rests on the reliability of the One being trusted.
