For the past decade, we have started every NTEB Radio Bible Study with the blowing of the shofar and the reading of the Aaronic blessing found in Numbers 6 that the LORD commanded Moses to bless the children of Israel with. Rightly dividing shows us this blessing is for the descendants of the children of Jacob, but it also shows us an amazing application for blood washed and born again children of God in the Church Age.

"And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them, The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them." Numbers 6:22-27 (KJB)

The Aaronic blessing found here in Numbers 6 also shows us the Trinitarian nature of God, a theme that is repeated from Genesis to Revelation and found in every dispensation. The Trinity is not Catholic doctrine, it is Bible doctrine, and when we cross-reference Numbers 6 with places like John 16 & 17, we see some amazing stuff that absolutely applies to us here in the Church Age. There is much we can gain by, not stealing the promises made to the Jews and Israel, but by comparing scripture with scripture to see that many of the blessings and promises God gives to the Jews and Israel also has overlapping application for us as well.
