Each Torah portion contains a study of each of the three basic parts of the Bible. From the first 5 books of Moshe (Moses), then a portion from the Prophetic books, and for Messianic believers, a selection from the New Testament (Brit HaDashah) "New Covenant" or "Covenant Renewed"
The reason we say "covenant renewed" is that we are under a "better" covenant. It is different, yet the same. "Different because Yeshua/Jesus became the permanent sacrifice lamb for ALL of our sins, past, present, and future. "The same" because it is always based on BLOOD" just like the blood of the sacrifice animals, yet a BETTER BLOOD.

ISAIAH 54:11-55:5
The Prophet Isaiah speaks as directed by the Holy Spirit, as a father who comforts his children, promising them blessings, but begins with “Unhappy, storm-tossed one”, meaning that Israel has been through a lot, deportation to Babylon, destruction of the temple, scattered throughout the nations of the world…YET…blessings, protection, etc. will follow for THE SERVANTS OF THE LORD. Yes, for THOSE who SERVE the LORD. Yes, we have to be on HIS side, part of HIS FAMILY, and walk in OBEDIENCE.
” Come, all who are thirsty, come for water….” (Chap 55) Yeshua mentions LIVING WATER (himself) on Hoshanah Raba (the eighth day of Sukkot) and also, to the woman of Samaria, this water is available to US ALL, if we just choose to drink of his WORD. The Hebrew word "Mayim" = water. It is always written in the plural form.
The Hebrew word for "Heavens" is "HaShamayim"; the word "mayim" is in it. The waters were divided when God created the world. Some waters stayed on the Earth to form the oceans, rivers, and lakes, and the other "waters" were lifted up and extended above the Earth to form the "vapor canopy." This protected the pre-flood world from the harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun.
We need the liquid water to live, and also the Spiritual water to live spiritually. We can't live long without water, yet many are dying of spiritual thirst, yet they don't know it. So drink from the fountain of life. It is cool and refreshing, just what our souls need.
JOHN 9:1-10:42
This is the story of the healing of the blind man. Yeshua spat in the dust and made him “new eyes!” What a miracle, and why not? Are we not made from the dust of the earth (Adamah)? So Yeshua takes of the same dust, adds his own spittle (a form of water) and now, the blind man washes in the “Pool of Siloam” (which means “sent”) So, we see this; a man who has a defect (blindness) meets Yeshua (The Living God) who made man from the dust of the earth, puts dust on the blind man’s eyes, add a bit of water, then “sends” the man to wash in the pool that means “Sent” and then, he sees!
Many are blind spiritually; they cannot or don’t want, or will not “see” the truth. They see it, yet they don’t. The Bible is TRUTH yet many just see a book with stories in it, yet when the Holy Spirit opens the eyes of the spiritually blind, then, they can now SEE! The difference between the “clean” and the “unclean”, the “worldly” and “Holy”, “obedience” and “disobedience” before they were blind, and now they can see. We were all blind, yet now, we can see! Baruch HaShem!
Shalom
