DISCIPLE / LIMUD

Character traits of a Disciple

Limud (taught one/teacher)

 The Hebrew word for a disciple is limud, a passive participle from its root lamad meaning "learning; teaching; habituating; goading; directing". 

A yoked ox is directed with a pointed staff by goading.

We are invited to be yoked to Yeshua (Mat. 11:27-30) and learn from Him as He was enabled by the Spirit of Yahweh to fulfill His purpose.

A Limud should be manifesting these character traits (Isa. 50:4; 54:13):
