Analysis of Rabbi



There was a Rabbi long ago,
Much smarter than the rest.
With every chance He let them know
That scripture was the best

And only way that people could
Learn with authority
The ways of God all people should
Know leads to set them free.

The teacher's name means that God saves
All people who believe
That Jesus won't leave us as slaves
To sin.  His blood achieves!
