3 Lesson V Our Call – His Yoke
What is a disciple? A disciple, talmid (תלמ׳ד) is a student. Yeshua was a rabbi who spent his time teaching his disciples. Today we have a call to join Him as disciples and this is a high calling. A disciple was a student who apprenticed himself from a rabbi or sage (a Torah teacher). It was the primary form of high education in the Jewish community in those days. Disciples had absolute dedication and loyalty for their teachers To be a disciple is a fulltime call. Yeshua refers to the demands of discipleship as a “yoke” which in rabbinic teaching is a metaphor for Torah. Yeshua said that his “yoke” was easy, but He also warned them to count the cost before taking it (2 Timothy 2:3)
