Study Scripture Through 7 Authentic Jewish Lenses

The Bible wasn’t written in a vacuum. Every verse was shaped by real places, people, and traditions. That’s why SHEMA helps you explore Scripture through seven authentic Jewish lenses: history, culture, language, literature, geography, theology, and rabbinic wisdom.

Each lens gives you a different angle. Geography shows why “lukewarm” made sense to Laodicea. Language reveals how Hebrew words carry layers of meaning—like yirah, which means awe, reverence, and fear all at once. Rabbinic wisdom shows how Jesus used remez (hints) to invite people deeper.

👉 Think of these lenses like seven doors. The more you walk through, the richer the story becomes. Want a taste? Step into What is Remez? to see how Jesus taught with hidden clues.
