THE PICTURES PHILOSOPHY

PICTURES or Tavniot in Hebrew is the philosophy that all of Judaism is a set of metaphors or "Pictures" of -- and a shadow cast by -- the Messiah Yeshua.  In PICTURES and then When All The Pictures Are Restored, of which PICTURES is the first chapter, this philosophy is explained, examined in detail and used as the lens to view the entire Jewish Calendar year. Building on this foundation, the other books by Michael Washer explain many of the most common questions and replace the most common misunderstandings of  the Scriptures with the truths of ancient Judaism; the  original template of God.

This work is a vast philosophical examination of the enormity of the Jewish experience. All of it is based on the Calendar yearly cycle, one that is filled with many experiences; prayers and activities. Each one of them is an opportunity to learn the deep wisdom of Judaism. At the same time, every holiday and fast throughout the Jewish year also teaches us many details about two subjects: 1. The Messiah Yeshua (not the hellenized jesus christ) and 2. The Kingdom, or "Day of the Lord".  Both are thoroughly examined and explained through the lens of Judaism in this amazing book.

The first chapter of the Pictures Restored book, PICTURES lays out the liberating Jewish philosophy of Tavniot (Judaism as a set of metaphors or Pictures of all heavenly things). It also presents clear and understandable counters to every historical, cultural, and supposedly biblical arguments that separate Christians from Judaism. Replacing Yeshua (Jesus) back into the immersive Jewish world of the first century dissolves these mythologies and false beliefs allowing them to be replaced by a Jewish view of Yeshua and the Jewish doctrines taught by Shaul or Paul. It establishes Judaism as the Way given to us by God and explains how Yeshua the Messiah fits into this amazing Plan.​

This book is the companion volume to PICTURES. If Judaism is a set of Pictures or metaphors, and similes, parables, stories, and illustrations, then where are "commandments"? This book examines the story that God gave from the beginning; proving that there really are no commandments, and therefore nothing to "obey". In it, this book teaches how to "Shema" (meaning HEAR--the Hebrew word mistranslated as "obey" in bible versions). It shows how to hear the voice of God by listening to the actual acts of Judaism (kosher laws; New Moon; Shabbat and Festivals). This leads to what we all want, the Knowledge of God.

Haggadah bookMichaelWasher_edited.jpg

This beautiful full-color Haggadah has all 15 steps of the Seder, along with Messianic commentary (Pictures) throughout to show the Messiah Yeshua (not jesuschrist) in every aspect of the "Seder" (meal). The Pictures commentary is consistent with the book "When All the Pictures Are Restored", and answers many questions about the timing of Yeshua's death, burial and resurrection according to the Moedim (Festivals) of Judaism, and what many of the details of Pesach (Passover) and Hag ha_Matzah (Feast of Unleavened Bread) reveal to us about the Messiah and the Day of the Lord (Messianic Kingdom).

TORAH&SPIRITcoversmall.jpg

--The Torah was given on the festival of Shavuot & centuries later God poured out His Spirit on the same Festival.

--Abraham did Judaism 430 years before Torah was given & it was the Holy Spirit that taught him to do it!

--There were two Covenants made at Mount Sinai; one of Torah as “law” & one of Torah as “Spirit”.  

--Israel is God’s Vine, & Yeshua (Jesus) called Himself the Vine.       

--The Scriptures (and Jewish writings) call both the Torah & the Holy Spirit "Water"

This book provides a solution to the historical chasm between Christianity and Judaism: 7 biblical witnesses that show that the foundation of Judaism & the Holy Spirit are exactly the same!

Gospel of Zion cover.jpg

In this book, the author examines the evidence in the Scriptures from a Jewish perspective to show that the Gospel as it was presented by Paul the Apostle  (“Rabbi Sha’ul”) is very different from the Gospel as it is currently presented in our day. So what is the Gospel and what was the Gospel to ancient Israelis?  The author shows that the Gospel was seen only in the ways of Israel - that is, in “Judaism”, even after Yeshua (Jesus) came. Its message is seen in Jerusalem, that mountain of the Temple shouting its message to the world. But there was also a strange, and hidden mystery in the Gospel--its ultimate truth that tore first century Israel apart. It is a story of the wrong person in the wrong place, at the wrong time being INVITED into the very presence of God.

TWO NATION IN YOUR WOMB Cover small.jpg

More than 3000 years ago, a  Jewish girl named Rebecca suffered with twins fighting in her womb. She was told by God that there were 2 "nations" and 2 "kingdoms" in her womb. One was Jacob the righteous, and the other Esav the wicked. Their lives tell an archetypal story - arguably the most important story (and struggle) in the Bible. This battle foreshadowed the future relationship between their descendants, Edom (Esav) which is seen in Judaism as Rome or "Christianity", and Jacob/Israel, who represents God's Kingdom (Day of the Lord) or the Kingdom of God.  Esav was the only person in the Scriptures about whom God said "I hate [him]". But in the Day of the Lord these brothers will be reunited as Judaism fills the earth with the knowledge of God

SHATTERING MYTHS 1 tiny.jpg

The first in a series of books I am writing to shatter the most commonly held myths in the "Christian" world, these books are resources to help restore the Jewish root to the Believers world. This book exposes the historical, factual basis to show that the image of "Jesuschrist" is actually the image of the false messiah--an image born in Hellenism (the way of the Greek).  It is impossible to overstate the effects of Hellenism on the "Church", and this book reveals this insidious anti-Jewish force and how it transformed Yeshua the Jewish Messiah into the Greek idealized god-man, with the aim of removing Judaism from God's Jewish Body.

THE FIVE GIFTS & OMER tiny.jpg

From the Jewish Festival of First Fruits (Bikkurim) to the Jewish Festival of Pentecost (Shavuot) is seven weeks or 49 days called "filling the measure" and "counting the Omer". During this time, there are 5 processes that were done by the Priests in the Temple to create a "perfect (tam) omer" of grain. In Leviticus 23 this time is called "7 perfect (temimot) weeks". This time is given to us to perfect ourselves - this process is reflected in the 5 processes done to the grain. In Ephesians 4, these 5 processes are used by Paul or Sha'ul to describe the 5 different "gifts" in the Body of Israel (or Body of Messiah) they are: Evangelist, Pastor, Prophet, Teacher and Apostle. We are told the purpose of the these gifts is to create a "filled measure; "a perfect man". Learn to identify your own gift and the gifts of others.

JUDAHLEVICOVER tiny.jpg

Scriptural prophecies state that the Messiah must come as the son of king David, from the tribe of Judah. But the New Testament presents Yeshua as a High Priest in Heaven, and being from the "Prieshood of Melchizedek", a Priest from Heaven, and king of Jerusalem. He was a "Priest-King". Many have spiritualized this issue to say that Messiah Yeshua is (somehow) "our Priest-King" and "Christians" too are priests and kings. There is no need to spiritualize this issue -- Yeshua was born into the Tribe of Judah as well as the tribe of Levi, the house of Kahat (the priestly family)!  The Scriptures contain many clues and stories that show that the family of Judah's kings intermarried with the family of the Priests at the very top levels throughout biblical history. Follow this fascinating story from the beginning through to the Messianic Kingdom.
