In this study of the Book of Hebrews (אֶל־הָעִבְרִים), Brother Gideon Levytam examines Hebrews 13:7–9, focusing on the practical evidence of faith in the life of a believer. He highlights the exhortation to remember and follow the faith of godly leaders who have spoken the Word of God. Central to this encouragement is the unchanging nature of our Savior: Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah) is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Gideon connects this to the character of Jehovah in the Tanakh, reminding us that because the Messiah does not change, His promises and His presence remain a constant anchor for His people. Gideon also addresses the warning against being carried away by "diverse and strange doctrines," particularly those focused on legalistic dietary restrictions or man-made traditions. Drawing from the wisdom of the Apostle Paul in Romans and Colossians, he emphasizes that the heart is truly established by grace (Chesed), not by ritualistic observances which do not profit the soul. As we navigate a world of shifting voices, we are called to remain occupied with the person of Yeshua and the sufficiency of the grace He has provided.
