Aaron Shust - Standing with Israel under fire, how the land and people inspire his music and faith.
September 1, 2024
In this episode of Pod for Israel, we talk with award-winning Christian artist Aaron Shust about his brave decision to visit Israel amidst ongoing conflict. Aaron reveals why his faith and deep connection to the land compelled him to make the journey despite the risks. Over the past several years, Aaron has delved deeply into friendship with Messianic Jews, both in Nashville and Israel, as well as into the Hebrew Scriptures and Jewish tradition that they yield. Here, Aaron and his family have found not only friendship, but also a depth of insight into the rich background of the Yeshua Aaron proclaims, and what this depth of meaning can bring to believers today.

Dr. Erez Soref interviews Ella, the aunt of former hostage Abigail Edan. She fled as her parents were murdered in front of her to a friends house just to be taken hostage moments later. Ella called to check in on her family that day only to have her niece and nephew answer the phone with the news that their parent's were dead, their 4 year old sister gone, and they were hiding in the closet from the terrorists ransacking their home in Kfar Azza. Ella shares with us the harrowing trials of that fateful day and what it's like for her and their family today as they cope with the trauma and grief of that horrible trail. Our hope is Ella's story will give you insights on how to pray for the hostages and those traumatized by this war.

In this episode, we explore the intricate relationship between Jewish faith and tradition, focusing on the Aramaic translation of the Torah known as the “Targum Onkelos.” We will discuss how the rejection of the Septuagint by rabbis, due to its association with early Jewish followers of Yeshua, led to the development of the Aramaic translation of the Torah that incorporated rabbinic traditions.

Join us as we explore how New Testament passages have influenced the selection of readings in synagogues and the transcription of the oral law (Mishnah) by rabbis. We will draw parallels between key figures like Rabbi Akiva and the Apostle Paul, suggesting that rabbinic Judaism emerged in part as a response to Messianic Judaism.

In this episode of Case for Messiah, we explore the profound influence of Yeshua (Jesus) and the New Testament on rabbinic Judaism. Throughout this conversation, we highlight three key ways in which this influence is evident: the reading of the weekly haftarah (prophetic portion), the development of oral law, and the Aramaic translation of the Torah.
A striking revelation emerges as the absence of certain key passages from the prophets in synagogue readings—passages that hold significant importance in the New Testament for identifying Yeshua as the Messiah, is discussed. This deliberate omission or alteration suggests a nuanced relationship between Judaism and Christianity, prompting deeper reflection on shared theological heritage.

About One For Israel
Established in 1990, ONE FOR ISRAEL began as a Bible college and has since expanded to a multi-faceted ministry with the express goal of reaching Israelis with the Good News of Yeshua, training and equipping the Body of Messiah in Israel, and blessing our community with Yeshua’s love. The story and ministry of ONE FOR ISRAEL is part of something much larger – the miraculous restoration of the Jewish people and the miraculous unity between Jewish and Arab believers in Jesus. We are seeing not only the physical restoration of Israel after a 2000-year exile, but a spiritual revolution is taking place right in front of our eyes. Jewish people are returning to their God and accepting the Messiah in numbers not seen since the early church! Not only that, but many Arab people are coming to the Lord and many Arab believers are finding a deep unity with their Jewish brothers and sisters. ONE FOR ISRAEL exists to do ministry within this miracle. We are Jews and Arabs, together serving Messiah Jesus, sharing the Gospel with Israel and the world, making disciples, training leaders, and blessing our communities in the name of Yeshua.
About Dr. Erez Soref
Dr. Erez Soref - President, One for Israel, One for Israel Bible College
Erez grew up in a traditional Israeli household, attending synagogue every week and learning the Old Testament in school all the way from first to twelfth grade, but to him, God felt distant. Bible lessons were taught more as the general history of the Jewish people, rather than with spiritual meaning. After his service in the IDF, Erez left for southeast Asia on the “Mysticism” trail, wanting to better understand spirituality. It was on his search that he discovered Israel’s best kept secret: Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah. After his life changing discovery, Erez immediately wanted to study the scriptures but found no Bible college in Israel to help. Erez felt that he was called to change that, and has worked tirelessly since then to provide the opportunity to Israelis—both Jewish and Arab—to study the Bible, in Hebrew where it happened. Today, Erez serves as president of the only accredited Bible college in Israel, training Israelis for ministry in the One for Israel Bible college. Under his leadership the college has trained thousands for ministry in Israel, and created a online awakening with cutting edge media outreach. Through One For Israel, we reach millions of Israelis with the gospel every year, and hundreds of millions around the world. Erez lives in Netanya with his wife, Sisi, and their three children.
