TORAH=LIGHT=LAMP=TORCH Have you noticed the Word, the Torah, is referred to many times in scripture as a lig!ht or a lamp....that which illuminates.....As we feast on the Word, the Torah, WE become enlightened or illuminated and are then a light to those who are still in darkness. In the olden days folks would use a Torch, a burning flame to lighten their path in and through the darkness....in this way Torah is likened to a Torch.....the letters are quite similiar too So let your Light, your TORCH shine so men will see YAH and turn to that Light, the Torah and become flames for Yah themselves........Oh Abba burn the dross from us and set us ablae with Your Torah Truth ...make us Torches so others can find The Way Ahmein [Psa 119:105 KJV] 105 NUN. Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. [Pro 6:23 KJV] 23 For the commandment [is] a lamp; and the law [is] light; and reproofs of instruction [are] the way of life: [1Ki 11:36 KJV] 36 And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there. [2Ch 21:7 KJV] 7 Howbeit the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light to him and to his sons for ever. [Psa 78:14 KJV] 14 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire. [Mic 7:8 KJV] 8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD [shall be] a light unto me. [Luk 2:32 KJV] 32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel. [Jhn 12:46 KJV] 46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. The word Torah in Hebrew is derived from the root ירה, which in the hifil conjugation means to guide/teach (cf. Lev 10:11). The meaning of the word is therefore teaching, doctrine, or instruction; the commonly accepted law gives a wrong impression.[6] Other translational contexts in the English language include custom, theory, guidance,[7] or system.[8] The torch is a common emblem of both enlightenment and hope,A torch is either a wooden or metal rod wrapped at one end with a material that has been impregnated with a flammable substance and ignited. It also means, in British English, a battery powered portable light source: compare flashlight. Flaming torches have been used through history and currently for various purposes including use in processions, symbolic or religious events
