Ecclesiastes 12:1 - Remember Now Thy Creator in the Days of Thy Youth
From Chapter 12:1 on the study of the Book of Ecclesiastes, (Kohelet-קֹהֶלֶת), brother Gideon Levytam continues to direct us to the advice that king Solomon gave to his people of Israel. Solomon alerted the young generation not to forget God, but remember Him during their young age and follow God now when they are still young. It will not be too long before evil days and years will come. Old age will creep in and the pleasures of life will fade away. God alone is the One who can provide true pleasures which will satisfy our souls.
Hebrews 4:1-13 - Enjoy the Present Rest by Trusting Jesus the Messiah
From Chapter 4:1-13 on the study of the Book of Hebrews (אֶל־הָעִבְרִים), brother Gideon Levytam directs us to the warning which the author of this letter gives to the Hebrew believers of first century. He reminds his Hebrew brethren of the need to continue-on in following the Lord Yeshua / Jesus the Messiah, even when they are miss-understood and rejected by their people. They were encouraged to enjoy a present rest by trusting their Messiah, and they are warned not to do what their forefathers did some years earlier when they harden their hearts. The Hebrew believers in Jesus the Messiah were encouraged not to follow the example of the unbelief of some of their forefathers, but trust God who knows all things and who's Word is powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword.
Esther 2:19 - 3:4 - The Service of Mordecai and the Promotion of Haman
From Chapter 2:19 - 3:4 of the study of the Book of Esther (אֶסְתֵּר), brother Gideon Levytam points us to the conduct of Mordecai in contrast to the behavior of Haman the Agagite. Mordecai in his service and care for king Ahasuerus, preserved his life when he informed Esther of the plot to slay the king by his servants. At the very same time, Haman who was promoted by the king, sought for himself reverence and honour from all, yet Mordecai the Jew did not bow nor or give Haman reverence. From this portion of scripture we learn of the need to have our heart in the right place.

From Chapter 11:7-10 on the study of the Book of Ecclesiastes, (Kohelet-קֹהֶלֶת), brother Gideon Levytam shares King Solomon’s words of advice to his people. Remember that life under the sun is not always sweet and pleasant, life also brings days of sadness and darkness. Therefore, rejoice in the Lord while you are still young, walk with God and set aside evil doings from your life, as an evil lifestyle will bring forth sorrow, and God's judgment.

From Chapter 11:1-6 on the study of the Book of Ecclesiastes, (Kohelet-קֹהֶלֶת), brother Gideon Levytam continues with the wise counsel of king Solomon to his people Israel. Solomon emphasizes the need to trust God, who is sovereign, looking beyond what the natural eye can see. God’s people are to live uprightly, doing that which is right, as they serve God and man, and in due time, God the maker of all, will bring about the blessing which He has promised to His people.
Esther 2:1-18 - A Young Jewish Girl Becomes Queen of Persia
From Chapter 2:1-18 of the study of the Book of Esther (אֶסְתֵּר), brother Gideon Levytam directs us to the supernatural way in which a young Jewish girl named Esther, became the wife of Ahasuerus king of Persia, instead of Vashti the deposed queen. King Ahasuerus appointed a gathering of all the fair young virgins in his kingdom in order to choose a new queen for himself. Esther, who came before king Ahasuerus, was loved by him above all the other women who came before him. By Divine providence Esther obtained grace and favour from King Ahasuerus, who set the royal crown upon her head and made her queen instead of Vashti.
