Begin At His Beginning – B’reshiyt

As mentioned in the last post we are at the start of the annual weekly scripture portions reading through Tanakh comprising the Torah, the Haftorah and the Brit Chadashah/Re New-ed Covenant/Testament.

So we should therefore…

Begin at His Beginning

Ruach ‘Elohiym

fluttering

on the face of the waters…

Genesis 1:2 
HEB: פְּנֵ֣י תְה֑וֹם וְר֣וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֔ים מְרַחֶ֖פֶת
NAS: of the deep, and the Spirit of God
KJV: of the deep. And the Spirit of God

and God said

Let Light Be and Light was

and God saith, ‘Let light be;’

and light is.

Youngs Literal Translation

The Word was there

B’reshiyt – in the beginning,

at the shaping of the heavens and the earth.

The Word was with God and the Word was God.

Without Him not even one thing existed

for it was through Him He spoke and

all things came into being.

Millennia later that same Word

was made flesh and lived among us.

John 1:14

A translation of

Genesis

B’reshiyt

from the Hebrew words and their meanings:

בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית

B’reshiyt

Chapter 1, Verse 1

the~WATER~s הַמָּיִם /ha’ma’yim

Could be read as: and the land had existed in confusion and was unfilled, and darkness was upon the face of the deep water and the wind of Elohiym was fluttering upon the face of the waters,

The fluttering

is significant as we read in 

Mark 1:10

“he (John) saw the heavens torn open, and the Spirit like a dove descending on Him (Jesus).

The wings of a dove are always

fluttering

to stay in the air.

Here was the Son, the Father as He spoke, and His Spirit was present descending in the same way a fluttering dove would hover just as He had overshadowed Mary several decades previously.

Verse 3

Could be read as:

and Elohiym said,

light will exist,

and

light existed.

For those desiring to do further research

there is an excellent transliteration site

of Hebrew to English is at qbible.com

Emptiness and the deep gave way to substance;

and darkness gave way to light.

Nothingness obeyed the Word

and responded to the authority of His will.

Then creation stumbled in humanity, in us,

when humanity heard the Word,

substance became nothingness

and light reverted to darkness.

It should give us pause for thought when

nothingness can hear and obey!

Then why are we so stubborn?

We so often fail to both hear, to listen to His Word and do what He says!

Even nothingness was not rebellious to the Creators voice!

This heart of rebellion in the human soul echoes the words of the slyest beast of the field…

Did God say?

Did He really say?

The voice of doubt, curiosity and rebellion, seeks a compromise of His truth and in the very question, undermines the authority of His Sovereignty in our lives. These doubts attack our convictions and then we consider other things that amount to nothing more than deceptive seducing lies; then we begin to entertain thoughts concerning them…and eventually believe the error.

He has given each of us

the power to choose when we hear His Word.

To listen and obey,

or to ignore,

separation from the Father is the inevitable result.

Sin will always challenge the Word

BUT

the good news is

we have been created anew

and have been given New Life in Messiah

and been granted rulership over sin.

We are new creatures in His image and likeness

and have the power in Yeshua/Jesus

to turn from sin and darkness.

Halleluyah!

In Hebrew Bereshit or B’reshiyt

is the first word of the 1st book of the Bible/Tanakh.

And so the title is its’ beginning.

(His Torah being the first 5 books attributed to Moses).

The very first letter of the 1st word is

B

in the Hebrew alefbet

Bet/Beit/Beyt

and herein is the 1st revelation/revealing

of Adonai/Yehoveh/YHVH.

This letter Bet or Beit means house.

Some scholars point out that the letter itself is composed of

3 x the letter shape of the letter vav

(our letter V as in vine).

Bet is also used for the letter V, vet without the dot.

Vav represents the number 6

which is considered the number of man.

Side note: 3×6! Sounds familiar?

Revelation 13:18 says,

Here is wisdom.

Let him who has understanding

calculate the number of that beast,

for the number is that of a man;

and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.

Vav Vav Vav

not to forget a previous post on who has our vav!

https://www.minimannamoments.com/in-times-of-need-and-during-days-of-uncertainty-whos-got-our-vav/

 

 

In the letter B,

is then the sum of 3×6=18

and is the same numerical value

as that of the word for LIFE – Chai.

This could be said as:

the house of creation is then the life of the universe?

The same word Bet

also has another function

in the Hebrew language

and means IN.

This suggests our Creators intention of

living/abiding

withIN this realm He created.

This voice/Kol,

that He spoke,

reveals the glorious power of the creation of the universe

by His spoken Word

and in a way reveals the threefold nature of Yehoveh by the use of the plural ElohIM and the word bara He created; which we noted earlier that all 3 were present at Yeshua/Jesus’ immersion.

Let’s take a moment to remember

our bereshiyt, our beginning,

the day we were forgiven,

redeemed,

cleansed,

delivered from darkness

and brought into His glorious light.

The day we repented of our sin

accepted His free gift of salvation and eternal life;

cleansed and restored to fellowship/relationship with Him.

We are made clean by His redeeming Blood and

the washing of the water of the Word.

This was the moment

Our Heavenly Father

said/spoke

to each of us:

Light Be!

יְהִי / yê’hi) LIGHT אוֹר / or and

His spirit of holiness, His

רוּחַ  Ruach אֱלהִים elohim

Pronounced: roo’-akh -el-o-heem

fluttered over us

much~FLUTTER (V)~ing(fs) מְרַחֶפֶת / mê’ra’hhe’phet, 

and darkness had to flee from us.

Yes, God did say ….

May we have ears to hear and eyes to see

and a heart to obey

the Word that He really and truly spoke.

His plan was and is to give us Life/ Chaim

and the Light was the Life of all humanity

Jesus/Yeshua HaMashiach. The WORD there in the 

בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית

He truly is the Genesis, the beginning, the b’reshiyt;

our beginning, our b’reshiyt, …

it is the Truth of us all!

Mish-pa-KHa,

friends, visitors and every reader…

Please don’t leave this page before making certain you have

a new b’reshiyt/beginning

and are born from above.

Know of a certainty that Jesus/Yeshua is

your Redeemer, Savior, Lord

and soon returning King

and that you have a personal relationship with Him.

You are greatly loved and precious in His sight.

It’s all about Life and Relationship, not Religion.

NOT SURE? YOU CAN BE..

SAY THE FOLLOWING FROM YOUR HEART RIGHT NOW…

Heavenly Father I come to you in the Name of Jesus asking for forgiveness of my sins for which I am truly sorry. I repent of them all and turn away from my past.

I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is your Son and that He died on the cross at calvary to pay the price for my sin, so that I might be forgiven and have eternal life in the kingdom of Heaven. Father I believe that Jesus rose from the dead and I ask you to come into my life right now and be my personal Savior and Lord and I will worship you all the days of my life. Because your word is truth I say that I am now forgiven and born again and by faith I am washed clean with the blood of Jesus. Thank you that you have accepted me into your family in Jesus’ name. Amen.

 

Who R U ?

Who are you?

האדם שאתה,

  Who am I?

   מי אני

 mi ani

Mah Shemakha

What is your name?

שלך השם מה

My name 

in Hebrew is

 שְׁמִי‎.

shem mem yod

Shmy pronounced sh-mi.

But

this does not say

who you are

just what you are called by others.

Have you ever asked yourself the ?

Who am I?

Who are you?

Who are you Lord?

The Scriptures tell us that we are made in the image and likeness of our Heavenly Father.

Yeshua/Jesus being the perfect example.

He had one physical parent, the one with the womb,

the wombman in which Jeremiah says He formed us.

Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I set you apart …

The image and likeness is the important issue.

This is the spiritual side of who we are and the most important part.

There are some in the bible who were more aware of who they were than others.

In 2 Sam 7:18, David asked the Lord

Who am I?

He asked in 1 Chron. 17:16: when King David went in and sat before the LORD; and he said: Who am I, O LORD God? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?

The scripture says that David was a man after Gods’ own heart but this was not due to his bad decisions and list of sins; but because he repented …Even with his close relationship to the Father he still asked the question

Who am I?

We see that this question was also asked by others in the scriptures: In Esther 7:5; Isaiah 51:12; Ruth 3:9; Ex.3:11; 1Sam.18:18, 25:10; 2Sam. 1:8, 7:18; 1Chron. 17:16, 29:14; 2Chron.2:6; Deut. 18:17-19; Acts 9:5, 19:15.

 

In Matt. 16:15 Messiah asked, who do you say that I am?

& in Mark 8:27 Jesus and his disciples left Galilee and went up to the villages near Caesarea Philippi. As they were walking along, he asked them, Who do people say I am?

Peter answered by the Spirit of Holiness bearing witness..

In Luke 4:34 the demons knew Who Yesua/Jesus was!

Who are you really?

What identity do you identify with the most?

He knew us in the womb Jeremiah 1:5 before we were born and named by our physical parents.

All mammals go through the same process to bring forth after their kind, so what makes us different?

Is it because we have a birth certificate and a social security number?

Is it because we have a Drivers License when we reach a certain age; or because we have all manner of certificates and diplomas with our name on?

John the Baptist knew who he was … or did he?

John declared he was a voice crying in the wilderness to make straight the paths of the Lord.

A preparer of the way.

Jesus/Yeshua knew who His cousin John was and said of him..

Matthew 11:14 And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to come.

… are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was … come. And if you are willing to accept what I say … he is Elijah, the one the prophets said would come.

If you are willing to accept it he is Elijah!!! John denied it maybe he was not aware he carried the spirit of Elijah! This was in fulfillment of the prophesy that I will send Elijah before the great and terrible day of the Lord. So that also gives us a marker in Gods’ timeline! It also gives us an insight into the little understood complexities and mysteries of the inner workings of the unseen spiritual realms. His ways are most certainly higher than our ways!

Yeshua/Jesus knew who He was and it’s probably safe to say that Elijah and the old testament prophets knew who they were too.

But Who Are You?

Have we ever asked ourselves or considered

who we really are?

This question is not referring to our physical, earthly identity in this world; for we are not of this world.

John 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

John 8:23 . And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I … But he continued, “You are from below; I am … of this world; I am not of this world. Jesus …

John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Spirit cannot die,

this is the likeness and image of God,

Who is our Father, the God of all spirits.

Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation, Num. 27:16

God is the Father of all “the spirits,” whether in the flesh or not; all are of Divine parentage, for God himself is Spirit – Πνεῦμα ὁ Θεός. John 4:24

Hebrews 12:9 Furthermore, we have all had earthly fathers who disciplined us, and we respected them. Should we not much more submit to the Father of our spirits and live?

Every physical body decays, from the moment of birth, the cycle of life is on a downward spiral. This is bad news…

BUT the GOOD news is we are NOT our bodies,

we are spirit, the spirit that inhabits this physical body. Some say soul and define it as mind, will, emotions; this comes from a Greek mind set. Soul and spirit in Hebrew is the same: breath, wind, spirit nefesh/Ruach or consciousness. That which survives death of the body.

We need to get it sealed in our understanding….the physical flesh body will wear out one day or we will simply leave it behind as the real us, our spirit & soul, goes to our Father.

we don’t die…

we are eternal

and will exist eternally as a spirit or in spirit form in one of 2 locations/realms/dimensions, as scripture indicates.

Could it be that the reason Yeshua /Jesus was able to give little to no importance to this life and everything that physical existence means and requires, is that He knew Who He was? He was the Son of God and the Son of man. He came to bring many sons to glory.

For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. Heb. 2:10.

Note: when men sons or brethren is used it includes daughters/women/sisters; children would be a better word to include both physical body-type-vessels. There is no male/female in the spirit; why do we still struggle over such basic issues?

Gal. 3:27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek,slave nor free, male nor female, for youare all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.

If we are truly born from above by His Ruach Ha Kodesh /His Spirit of Holiness, having our spirit that was dead to our Heavenly Father made alive to Him once again! Then our true identity is there to be revealed. We are children of God also, yet we existed before creation according to Genesis.

Spirit cannot not exist,

so where were we before Gen. 1:2,

and who were we?

What did we do?

Were we spiritual seed in the spiritual loins of Our Heavenly Father of lights, waiting within Him to be birthed into a flesh body/human being?

We are an eternal being, a spirit, our bodies are the containers we dwell in, with 5 physical senses to enable us to interact in this earthly realm by utilizing and instructing our flesh brain. If we existed prior to being physically born, why do we not remember? Did we have our memories wiped?

We are here to find out who we are in Him and to

choose the Father…

which father we will serve?..

and also to complete the task we were sent here to do.

To be a good and faithful servant.

Our brains, where our memories are stored, is flesh and will not survive the demise of the body, we will not take our brain with us. Could the transition be more like the awakening from a dream/sleep and it quickly fades into a distant thought that  we can’t quite get ahold of again?

Who are you?

What makes you, you?

Psychologists like to talk about our traits, or defined characteristics that make us who we are; this is more based on the carnal, fleshly sense-based personality.

He did not come to save our flesh.. No flesh will be present in heaven. God can’t look upon us without the Blood of Messiah Yeshua/Jesus covering us, because our flesh is corruption and filthy in His sight.

Gal. 5:19 &

2 Corinthians 7:1  Therefore, beloved, since we have these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from …

… , beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness … , we should cleanse ourselves from every defilement of fleshand spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear

2 Peter 2:10 Such punishment is specially reserved for those who indulge the corrupt desires of …

… him and don’t think of anything except their own filthy desires. They are reckless and proud and … of those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh and despise authority.

We do not know what we will become but we know that we shall be like Him. Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

1 John 3:2

We are spirit.

We came from the One True God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob/Israel; and we will return to Him …

We are created in His image and likeness meaning;

we are spirit as He is spirit, and beings of light as He is.

He said in Matt.22:30 we will be as the angels in heaven.

So what is your real identity?

It’s not the one your parents gave you, we are not our name, nor are we the one we have become of our own making; by copying others and fashioning ourselves after others standards and lifestyles.

We have nothing that is original except sin nature! Everything we have and want and do, is from a source outside ourselves. Our manner of dress, place of residence, the car we drive, the way we communicate, none of it had it’s origins in us.

We are all copy cats! We emulate first our parents, then our siblings, then family, friends, coworkers, etc etc…in speech, actions, traits, etc. and all are dependent on which country we are born into and the influence of the culture we are exposed to. This is why we are to renew our minds with the Word of God. That is reality, not this world and its systems… we have to change our ‘worldview’ to one that views everything out from the eyes of the spirit, from Heavens perspective.

He came to save the soul, NOT our flesh and

He came to make and give The WAY for our spirits to be reborn from above to everlasting life, so we would not remain in death because we were all born in sin and its’ wages are death.

We always assume that is referring to physical death but it’s not… it’s spiritual death, which is the literal separation from God, our Heavenly Father for ever – for eternity!!

Is a physical life here worth more than that?

Is our own way/plan/lifestyle worth more than that?

Are our own plans and what we want to do here and now, worth more to us than this??

Matt. 25:34

prepared for us from the foundation of the world our inheritance….

so He knew us then before we were a physical being.

Think on this… Our physical parents, and this includes those who are parents themselves, our parents bodies were made to be used to create the physical container for our spirits/souls. Is this why Yeshua/Jesus said he Had come to separate within families because this natural family is a flesh relationship? We are not His family unless all are born from above..and because of that, separations will take place.

Matt.10:34 Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.35 For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.…

In John 3:3, the term “born again”

in the Greek is

“gennao anothen”

which in straight English means

“born from above.”

It does not actually translate into

“born again”

but

“born from above”

meaning born of God,

spiritually reborn from heaven.

Flesh is flesh and spirit is spirit, He said to Nicodemus

and they (Parents) become one flesh at marriage

not one spirit.

The spirit does not come from the parents but from God and ultimately returns to Him.

When we leave this body

Dust to dust, flesh goes back to the earth.

Viewed in this way we do not ‘belong’ to our parents, we are not their ‘property’.

Look at it like this, we are simply ‘on loan’ to them from the Lord. He placed us where He did for His purposes. He knit us in the womb of His choosing preparing the vessel to carry us – the spirit/soul, to do His will. Made for His purpose. They are, and we as parents likewise, are to help all individuals grow up in the will plan purpose and admonition of the Lord. 

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Prov. 22:6

They are to help us grow and fulfill our call in Him, not our personal fantasies, dreams and goals. Nor should they cling to us, or us to them. As Yeshua/Jesus said,

I must be about My Fathers business.

Our cultural heritage stifles and suffocates Gods will for us. We are here for His purposes not our own, we have it back to front when we ask, ‘What do you want to be when you grow up?’ saying, ‘You can be anything you want to be’ …NO, not according to scripture! …

Whose are you and whom do you serve?

If you are not Gods’ child and don’t want to become one, then you can do what you want…So Who are you?

If we say to this mountain be removed…do we believe that?

And if it were not true why did He say it?

Who are you really?

It’s time to think and realize

we are not our body,

we are not our earthly identity

this body is the temporary dwelling place

for our spirit,

the real you,

the body is just the wrapper!

You are spirit and light,

the body cannot function without us inside it.

We really need to re-assess our innermost desires; if it’s based on what the world says is abundant life, then we are deceived and working for the wrong goals.

This life will end, this body is dying, we were born into decay, it has no future but the grave. BUT our soul/spirit will live on;

for the true believer it’s unto eternal life;

for the unbeliever it’s eternal separation

from our Heavenly Father.

In a way saying we die is a misnomer,

we don’t die because

we cant die;

spirit is spirit and has no capacity to die,

it’s another state of being.

Romans 14:8 “For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s.

Often we are so out of touch with our spirit that we focus on the flesh body and its needs instead. The soul has the emotions and the senses to help our spirit operate this vessel/this body. If we cannot get ahold of this reality, our bodies will dictate to us its’ desires and dreams of a reality in this world and that is what will dominate our lives. Then our walk with Him becomes a big struggle.

Through our 5 physical senses we see here what we want because we see what others have and we want it too. It is coveting; it’s desiring the things to make one wise and to make one look good.

It’s the same tricks and temptations which started a very long time ago in a garden… lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh and the pride of life; wanting others to see that you have made it, that you are somebody, that you are wealthy, etc etc…. This is of our own efforts not glorifying the Father.

Paul said it

oh lord deliver us from ourselves from this flesh that wants and needs and causes us to stumble yet James says we sin when we are drawn away by our own lusts.

We must choose daily to die to this flesh, it’s not a one time event. Crucify the flesh, kill it, deny it, it will lead us only to the broad way.

The longer we walk with the Lord the more He will require us to tighten up our walk and to cut off the sins that so easily beset us; to lay down the things that take our time away from His presence.

To deliver ourselves from the snare of the fowler.

Any life without God as the focus, the goal and the fulfilling of His will and plan and purpose, is off course.

It’s not a message that many want to hear, but if we read what He told us to do, how many of our lives really conform to the instructions He gave us?

Father help us to wake up and stop living for ourselves and or close family. We are just building our own kingdoms and not His.

This life is a one time opportunity to get it right; we don’t get a replay like a game. 

Yeshua/Jesus warned us, few there are that find the gate, few there are that enter in. Matt.7:14.

The Good News is, if you are reading this, there is still time to change..

It is the cares of this life, the deceitfulness of riches, financial gain and possessions that are the snares and temptations that we fall into.

That’s why Yeshua/Jesus told the rich young ruler to give it all away; the riches had him, he loved them more than Yeshua/Jesus and the Father.

If we seek first the kingdom, He promises He will add all that we need.

We try to add them ourselves using the worlds system to do it. This is not Gods 1st choice way…

Who are we?

You are not your flesh body…

This is a truth we must get hold of because it will change the way we think and see ourselves and everything around us. It will help us to function from our spirit and live by the gifts of His Spirit. We will leave this body behind when we are called home. Our spirit goes to its’ maker and the body does not survive without us in residence.

So death is NOT to be feared,

it’s simply a transition

from

this earthly realm to the heavenly realm.

We introduce ourselves by name and occupation. We identify with the name given by parents/guardians, or one we choose for ourselves by changing birth name on our certificates to another. We cannot alter the original but it still is not who we are.

We take on the identity from the family that we are raised among, adopting their ways and habits emulating their lifestyles.

It’s all we know.

All we are exposed to and we copy them.

For now we see through a glass, darkly;

but then face to face:

now I know in part;

but then shallI know even as also I am known.

1Cor. 13:12.

If we do have some memory of an existence before our spirit /soul was inserted into the physical body, by the time we can speak we’ve forgotten. We are told how to behave, how to live by those around us. Then we are educated by a worldly education system; we have no clue if what we are taught is true or not, we just accept it and much of what we are told of our history is only partially true, with many changes and omissions to the whole truth.

We think we are who we see in the mirror and the world molds us by its’ standards which are in Direct Opposite Reverse to the Way of the Father whose DOR, Dalet is Jesus/Yeshua.

This is the only way we will find our true selves and why we must renew our minds with His Word. His Word tells us we are eternal spirit and soul which cannot die so we have been around for much longer than we think.

We are His own, given to Yeshua/Jesus by His and our Father.

We have to get our eyes opened to really see this life is vanity, worthless, pointless, that only what we do for the kingdom of the heavens will have lasting value, however noble and good it may appear.

Treasures in Heaven again,

you are not your body

you are not the identity you project,

you are not your career your status and the old man is dead.

For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

Col.3:3.

We are consumed with this life and it quenches His spirit within, choking the lifes/chaim from us; Mark 4, and does not bear fruit to maturity.

The world and all its’ pleasures are not rooted in the Word of God. They belong to the prince of this world which is why he could offer them to Yeshua/Jesus.

He rejected them so should we…they are seducing, deceiving temptations, aimed at the flesh and its carnal desires. We must see them for what they are…We need to stop being a part of it and come out from among them and be separate.

His called apart ones.

What the world offers us is temporary and will pass away without lasting fruit to our credit. Whatever we love, we pay attention to and give our time to. Our time is the one thing we can direct and have control over, how do we spend it? What are we consumed with? What are we devoting our life to accomplish, and for what end?

Matt 10:34-42 whatever/whoever we love more than the Father and Jesus/Yeshua; whatever, whoever we place in the position of 1st place and importance is NOT worthy – deemed entirely deserving- of Him. V 38

Family, this is serious, very serious.

Spiritually speaking, our identity is Not with our physical family. Matt 10:36, members of household, Micah 7:6, our children are not ours, we are merely stewards until they can function without assistance. Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he will not depart from it. Prov.22:6

We are all brothers and sisters in the kingdom of God our heavenly Father. You are a spirit and so is everyone else. No family relationship in the spirit is like the world expresses it; we are all equal in the family of God.

48 But Jesus replied, “Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?” 49 Pointing to His disciples, He said, “Here are My mother and My brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of My Father… Matt.12:49.

We must begin and continue, to stop focusing on the things of the natural. Our bodies are simply containers for us to function through on the earth. Until we get it settled within us, we will be pulled down by its’ physical demands, feelings and 5 senses, and all the physical pain and problems.

You are not your body

and you have rule over it.

This is a liberating message if we want to receive it.

He came to set us free

Gal.5:1

don’t go back into bondage.

When God delivers us out of bondage, our eyes must be fixed on Him and Him alone. We must be determined not to look back or go back to the place that God has condemned.

Every person working for another, by way of a company etc., is in reality a slave to that job.

The rich rule over the poor,

and the borrower is a slave to the lender. 

Prov. 22:7.

Anyone who has debt, is in bondage to that debt.

The system has been set up to keep us in that bondage. Usually its incurred for things we want or think we need… houses, cars, etc., etc., etc. Things will keep us trapped, living a simple life with less is the life with less bondage; because the things we take on trap us into having to keep serving another who is not the Lord.

The world and everything in its systems belong to the prince of this world and we are to come out from among them and be separate.

Beloved family let’s put our trust in Him now, don’t wait until we are desperate but starting now, believe Him to supply our needs. Believe for that meal without a wage, without a handout from the government.

Can we do it?

Let’s begin to believe for our healing in the Name of Yeshua/Jesus of Nazareth instead of first going to the Dr. There is not one scripture where Yeshua/Jesus said go to a Dr. Go see a physician because I can’t heal you.

Or go to a psychiatrist I don’t know what’s wrong with you it’s a psychosis…

no …He cast out unclean sprits and demons that were causing sickness and disease. Those in the medical profession are a huge blessing for us and we are beyond grateful for their ministry and expertise…but what would we do if there is no Dr. or Nurse around??

What and who are we making our first choice?

Our jobs own us, we are slaves to our bosses, we do what they tell us because we want the money in the wages we get, to finance our dream and fulfill our goal…. How have we got so off track as far as what Messiah said to do??

Go into all the world and preach the good news of the gospel of the kingdom heal the sick raise the dead cast out demons the kingdom of god is within us so we carry it wherever we go. Lay hands on the sick they shall recover.

Who was this said to???

Everyone – whosoever will hear and do.

The call has gone out but only a very few answer it.

We choose our own way, our own path, our own life … it does not change the call that came to us; it’s just we didn’t have ears to hear like so many when Yeshua/Jesus first spoke it.

This is a serious message and no doubt many will be offended and raise up, voicing excuses that we say are valid reasons for why we are doing what we are doing.

The truth is… the truth of us… is where we are right now.

Today, this moment….if it were our last… are we ready to meet our Lord?

We are only promised today; yesterday is gone for ever, and tomorrow may never come for us … have we done what we should have? It’s a message designed by our Father to stir us up… and how we respond, will determine the WAY we take from this moment forward.

Many will wish they never read it, because now there’s a choice to make and some don’t want to.. but we have read it and Father knows it so…

 I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore

choose life, (chaim/hayyim)

that both you and your descendants may live; Deut. 30:19

So choose
וּבָֽחַרְתָּ֙ (ū·ḇā·ḥar·tā)

life,
בַּֽחַיִּ֔ים (ba·ḥay·yîm)

there are only 2 ways

everlasting life in the Fathers presence and

everlasting death without Him……

be one of the few that enter in to His glorious kingdom.

What is there, or who is there, on this earth that is more important???

Whatever it is, it’s an idol before the Lord. It’s another god, the thing we give our worship to, it’s instead of, before and in front of the Lord.

Even when we say we love Jesus/Yeshua, our actions, our fruit and priorities tell a different story. We can fool people but we can’t fool Our Father. We can even fool ourselves, saying, oh God understands.. He’s a God of love He doesn’t want me to do this, or that, He wants me to do what I’m doing and be happy.

Yes it’s a hard saying, so were those messages which Yeshua/Jesus said, both to the crowds and to His disciples.

Well we say, that was then and not everyone is a disciple or is supposed to go …go where you are! Your mission field is as close as your breath…we must stop compromising with the world, with trends, with fashion, technology, and entertainment. We are not here to have fun and enjoy life, we are sent here by our Father to fulfill His will to do what He asks of us ….

Lord Jesus /Messiah Yeshua, help us see

who we really are

open our eyes – hippatach –

reveal to us

who we are in YOU.

Our natural, earthly family here, may not be our forever family if they are not walking with the Lord; and if unsaved, neither are our siblings, parents and children. As for those who are His, we will see them as they truly are one day, our true spiritual siblings, we only see them as in earthly relationships for this earth experience. In Christ/Messiah, our parents, children, grandparents, etc., are all our equal siblings. Our brains and memories will die with the rest of the physical body we don’t take those with us.

This world and everything in it, is NOT reality; it’s a construct within the earths framework, constrained by a thing we call time. Time does not exist outside of this realm and when we transcend/ascend, or however we want to name it; this life will be as a moment, something like a dream we had and can hardly remember. We came from Him and will return to Him for a future we can barely imagine. Yes there is beauty here but it’s temporary, transitory; we are passing through and where we are going is wonderful beyond our words to describe.

Our foundation is in Yeshua/Jesus, not here, so let’s stop building our Eden, our paradise on earth because according to scripture, it’s about to be burned up. Build up your treasures in heaven where they will not be destroyed. The disciples got it, they understood and not loving their lives unto death, they ran their race and completed their course. Can we say with Paul that we have too!????

Who are we??

We are spirit, we are eternal, we will never die, so we can cease being afraid of death… for the believer it doesn’t exist its just a change in the realm of existence.

This age is at its’ close, Yeshua/Jesus is coming back. Revelations prophetic pictures will come to pass; God will judge this world and everything written will happen just as He said it will…are we ready?

Are we prepared for those things in Revelation?

Are we able to stand in that day?

Will we be counted worthy, deemed entirely deserving, to escape those things coming upon the earth and to stand before the Son of man? Or are we loving our lives too much? Are we seeking to save our lives, or are we looking unto Yeshua/Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. And will He find that faith demonstrated in us when He returns?

Know that you are loved enough for truth to be told to you and this writer makes no apologies for declaring the Truth of His Word. Wouldn’t we rather hear the truth and not an ear tickling, feel good message that does not set us free? He loves us and will not lose one that has been given Him by His Father.

However, those the Father has given me will come to me, and I will never reject them. For I have come down from heaven to do the will of God who sent me, not to do my own will. And this is the will of God, that I should not lose even one of all those he has given me, but that I should raise them up at the last day. John 6:37-39

He is calling us close to Himself..

Today, if you hear His voice,

do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.

Heb.3:15.

 

Gird up your loins family,

get ready,

be prepared and stay alert,

because you do not know

the hour that your Lord is coming!

What Is The Connection Between Blood, Gold and The Mystery of Beth Shemesh – Part 2

We looked at the Blood in last weeks post and surely it is the keystone of a triumphant life in Messiah. Lack of understanding of the power in Jesus/Yeshuas Blood can impede our complete and sustained victory as we follow Him.

To remind ourselves and to help seal the revealed knowledge into our hearts:

His Blood has the following properties:

Redeeming. Revelation 5:9 Ephesians 1:7 Colossians 1:14

Justifying. Romans 5:9

Remitting. Hebrews 9:22

Forgiving. Ephesians 1:7 Colossians 1:14

Washing and freeing. Revelation 1:5

Purging. Hebrews 9:14

Cleansing. 1 John 1:7

Sanctifying. Hebrews 13:12

Reconciling. Ephesians 2:13

Blotting. Colossians 2:14

Triumphing. Colossians 2:15

Overcoming. Revelation 12:11

The effects are numerous because

through the Blood of Jesus/Yeshua, we have:

Forgiveness

Reconciliation

Cleansing

Sanctification

Union with our Heavenly Father

Victory over satan

Life everlasting.

                                                                                                                                               

We are probably very familiar with the term the Scarlet Thread or the line of the blood because throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation runs a broken continuous scarlet red stream of blood from an atoning sacrifice.

Beginning in Genesis 3:21 through the sacrifices including those of Noah and Abraham recorded in Exodus, Leviticus and the whole Old Testament/Tanakh system, until it bursts forth in the supreme sacrifice of Messiah at Calvary.

It runs on, in an ever increasing and widening course through the generations; and will flow on through the countless ages of eternity.

Unto Him Who loved us and

washed us from our sins

in His own blood

Salvation must be of the Lord. John 3:16

and must be by

the death of an innocent substitute

1 Peter 2:22,24

It must be by blood. 1 Peter 1:18 – 20

Every acceptable sacrifice

must meet these three conditions

as taught in Genesis 3:21.

Abels sacrifice did meet the conditions

but Cains did not.

Abel brought an innocent lamb as a substitute in his place

and he was justified before God in

its sacrificial death and the shedding of its blood.

Having laid the foundation we move on to the connection… and

What follows is a seldom preached incident concerning the necessity of the blood. The reason why the Lord must demand blood for the atonement of sin lies in the nature of God and in the nature of sin.

God is perfectly and unimpeachably Holy, because of this truth, sin can never be passed over without the justice of God being satisfied; and because sin is rebellion against an infinite God, there is none higher. Therefore, only the greatest and the highest price can be accepted as an atonement for sin.

That price is

Life/chaim itself;

and we have agreed that scripturally,

the life is in the blood.

Again, every sacrifice that is acceptable to God

must meet these 3 conditions.

It must not be man’s work but Gods.

On Mount Sinai,

God gave to Israel the law/10 sayings/commandments which comprised directions and instructions for life/living and how to approach Him.

which was

Holy,

Perfect

and

Just.

Disobedience to this law demanded the greatest penalty in payment. It was for this reason that God gave the instructions for the ark of the covenant to be in the Tabernacle, right in the Holy of Holies.      

Recall from previous posts, what the box/ark was and the specific items it contained.

It was COVERED with beaten GOLD

Inside were the tablets with the ten sayings/ law written on them. These had been broken by Israel when Moses was up the mountain.

The broken Law demanded the eternal damnation of Israel; but God had made a provision and had planned the

Mercy Seat of beaten GOLD to COVER this broken law.

He required that once a year, on the

day of Atonement/Yom Kippur,

the High Priest took the blood of the animal sacrifice,

which was God’s provision,

from the altar of burnt offerings and

sprinkled it on the Mercy Seat/The kapporet.

Here we have BLOOD placed upon GOLD…

Recall it is compared to the throne of grace; because the Holy of Holies is called the place of the mercy-seat, the mercy seat is a place where people come to be in God’s presence.

The term mercy seat comes from the Hebrew word kapporeth, which means a covering. In the Old Testament it refers to the covering or lid of the Ark of the Covenant, where the children of Israel kept the Ten Commandments. The Ark’s covering was made of acacia wood, overlaid with gold, or perhaps a plate of solid gold, 2 1/2 cubits long and 1 1/2 broad (Ex. 25:17; 30:6; 31:7).

Ephesians 2:6 compares the place of mercy with the throne of grace, the place where God sits upon His throne. Hebrews 9:5 associates the covering of the altar with the cherubim, creatures that represent God’s glory and presence. See previous posts.

The Holy of Holies is called the

place of the mercy-seat in 1 Chronicles. 28:11: Lev. 16:2.

This is significant, because in Jewish culture only the High Priest was permitted to enter the Holy of Holies, the place of God’s presence. Because of Yeshua haMashiach/Jesus Christ’s self-sacrifice, specifically His shed Blood, today because of and through His blood, anyone can come to the mercy seat to be in God’s presence.

In many churches people seek the Father at a specific time and place, where God could be found. We know that there is nothing special about the place itself. And we would be limiting God to our way of thinking. He is right where we are because as born again/born from above by His Spirit of Holiness children; the Kingdom of God is within us – we are the living stones.

The broken law

was then covered

by the blood of a sacrifice onto gold.

God was appeased and atonement was made.

His justice was satisfied and

His mercy could flow out unhindered

to his erring, rebellious children.

Here we must remember that to look upon the

broken law without blood, is to face God’s wrath.

He said when I see the blood I will pass over you.    

From Egypt and the 1st Passover Lambs blood…Here we begin to see the connection forming with Yeshua/Jesus as well as the blood connected to the gold on the kapporet as atonement for sin.

To remove the Blood from God’s righteous judgment, is to invite certain death and destruction.

What follows is possibly an area not often mentioned and yet it reveals what seems to be a profound insight and meaning for each and every one of us.

The Mystery of Beth Shemesh

 בֵּית שֶׁמֶשׁ 

means, house of the sun  

1 the noun בית  beth, house,

and 2 the noun שמש shemesh, sun.

(This could be linked to the play on words of sun/son and the Malachi 4:2 scripture: shall the Sun/shemesh of righteousness arise with healing in his wings.)

Beth Shemesh, was a small town on the border

between Judah and the Philistines;

located approximately 30 kilometres (19 mi)

west of Jerusalem in Israel.

This is the place where the

Ark of the Covenant

came when it was returned by the Philistines. 1 Sam. 6.

Beth Shemesh stands in Israel’s Shephelah-foothills

lying between the coastal plain and Judea Mountains.

            In 1 Samuel 6 the Ark of The Covenant had been taken captive by the Philistines. During the time the Ark was in their possession God sent diseases and plagues upon them.

1 Samuel 5:9 the Philistines called for diviners and soothsayers as to the reason of these diseases and plagues. They correctly pointed to the fact that the Ark of the Covenant of Israel was in their midst.

Here is where they devised a very clever plan by deciding that, a pair of young cows who had recently given birth to calves; should be harnessed to a new wagon; upon which the Ark of the Covenant was to be placed. Together with some golden emerods and golden mice and headed in the direction on the land of Israel.

The emerods were a divine punishment on the Philistines when they defeated the Israelites and captured the Ark of the Covenant on the day that Eli and his sons died. 

Emerods is an archaic term for hemorrhoids. Derived from the Old French word emoroyde, it was used as the common English term until the nineteenth century, after which it was replaced in medicine by a direct transliteration of the original Greek term haimorrhoides. The word is most commonly encountered, however, in the King James Bible, where it appears in the First Book of Samuel as a plague.

Golden emerods, i.e. figures/likeness of that part of the body which was the seat of the disease, which by its swelling, or some other way, represented also the disease itself; which was not offered in a contempt of God, but because they sought to gain His favor; it was rather as a testimony of their humiliation, and they considered  that by leaving this token of their own shame and misery they might find and obtain pity from God, and freedom from their disease. 1Sam.6:4 

They surmised that if the two cows went in a straight line away from their newly birthed young, it would be a indication that the Ark was the cause of the distress.

But if the cows would refused to leave their young calves and turn around, it would indicate that the Ark was not the cause of the plagues.

The result was contrary to nature because the cows did go in a straight line to the land of Israel and came to the city of

Beth Shemesh

which was the city of the Levites/Priests.

The reapers looked up from the field and saw the Ark of the Covenant coming without any human guidance!

For those who love archeology, here is a link to a recent find in the area that may be the stone on which the ark of the covenant rested?!

This peculiar stone, supported by stone “legs,” was discovered inside a temple dating to around 1100 b.c.e. And it may be the very same stone mentioned in the biblical account of the ark of the covenant.

https://watchjerusalem.co.il/852-was-this-where-the-ark-of-the-covenant-sat

Upon the arrival of the Ark of the Covenant in Beth Shemesh there was great rejoicing…

but during the course of the celebration some of the men of Beth Shemesh whether carelessly, unintentionally or accidentally, lifted up the

Gold Mercy Seat/Kapporet,

to see whether the contents of the Ark have been removed or disturbed by the Philistines. More likely moved by curiosity, they removed for a moment

the Bloody Covering off the Ark

 and for only a brief moment in time, they looked upon

the broken law of God

without the Blood between them and the sin

and the result was tragic. 1 Samuel 6:19

???

Recall: to look upon the broken law of God

without blood means certain death;

it was NOT just for curiosity!

This is the foundation of His plan of redemption.

But 

God cannot look upon our sinful flesh without the

Blood of Yeshua/Jesus

standing/placed in that gap

between Him and us as our

Covering. 

The only sacrifice must be by blood.

This was a tragic but vivid demonstration of the seriousness of His plan and the ultimate fulfillment of Messiahs act of submitted obedience. Yeshua/Jesus died physically so His Blood could be our covering on Heavens Kapporet/Mercy Seat of GOLD. We know that His Father could not look upon Him as He bore our sin and for that unspeakable moment He experienced separation from His Father, which amounts to spiritual death. He was broken for us and His Blood still cries Mercy/Forgiveness for us.

Herein is the mystery of the Gospel in Beth Shemesh, the town of the Priesthood. We must never take our redemption through His Blood for granted but walk in humility and love with a grateful heart of thanksgiving. Without the Blood of our Savior on that Golden Kapporet, we have no hope, it is the only thing between us and the broken law, the laws that we have broken and as seen in this episode to look upon the broken law without the blood covering is certain death… the wages of sin is death..BUT the gift of God is eternal life in Jesus/Yeshua.

There is another very mysterious illustration linking

Blood, Gold and Water

in Exodus 32

which also sets forth this truth in a very clear way;

that is, in the atonement which Moses offered

after the people had broken Gods law

by making the GOLDen calf at Mount Sinai.

Moses and Joshua had been on the mountain for 40 days and 40 nights. During their absence Israel had given them up for dead. Possibly out of fear and/or confusion, the people demanded Aaron construct a god to lead them on their way.

The result was the golden calf.

When Moses descended from the Mountain with the tablets of the testimony in his hand, he found that Israel had already

broken the first two of God’s commands

and so they had already

placed themselves under the curse of God.

Moses knew that nothing but a

blood atonement

could avert disaster for the children of Israel.

Here we find a very unique account

of Moses’s sacrifice for Israel sin.

In Exodus 32, he tells the children of Israel that they ought to die for their sin but, that he would bring

an atonement to the Father..

He didn’t know if it would work, but that he was going to try it in order that they may be saved and spared.

Exodus 32:20

He took the calf which they had made and burned it in fire.

Ground it into powder and threw it upon the water and made the children of Israel drink it.

From this verse we see that Moses took the golden idol and

Beat it

Melted it

Ground it into powder

Put it in the water

Made the children of Israel drink it!!

In Deuteronomy 9: 21

there is the same record with more details.

The greater detail is six things are mentioned:

He melted it

He stamped it

He ground it

Then he ground it again

And he put it into the brook/water and

 he made the children of Israel drink it

Then he took some of the water out of the brook

and presented it to God

for the blood atonement

for the sins of Israel.

This seems strange.. but we should remember Moses had been raised in the palace and Court of the Egyptian Pharaohs and had been taught a great many things of which he was very knowledgeable. From the Scriptures it appears that Moses had a supernaturally given knowledge of the science of chemistry.

The apparently strange things that he did,

in the melting, grounding and suspension of the Gold

had however, a greater reason and meaning.

The result was a suspension which became

a vivid type of the blood of Jesus/Yeshua.

Chemistry gives three kinds of mixtures as follows.

A mechanical mixture: where if a piece of metallic gold is dropped in water no solution occurs. The gold remains intact in the water. Pure gold will not dissolve in water.

A suspension or emulsion: this is finally divided particles of eight metallic substance that can’t be suspended in water by adding another chemical to it. There is no solution, the finely ground particles are simply suspended in the water this is called an emulsion.

A chemical solution: a spoon full of sugar placed into water will not mix or be suspended; but will result in an increase in weight but not volume. The sugar dissolves and the atoms/ particles take up their place within the water itself.

Gold will not dissolve in water… why?

because it has a specific gravity of 19.5 times heavier.

Bare with the following description as the science reveals an amazing type and shadow of Messiah!

In fine powder,

Gold assumes a colloidal condition

and when added to water,

it results in coloration that it appears to be a solution.

As the particles are made finer, the bulk is greatly increased and acquires an apparent specific gravity, permitting its suspension in water, and giving it/ the liquid

a deep red color.

Scientific records state that,

colloidal gold in water is a rose red color

when the particles are of 10 micron size

in a dilution of 1 to 100,000.

From this we see that

gold in dust size will color water as blood

which means that this

calf of gold

need not have been very big in order

to color sufficient water blood red

to supply drinks to at least two or more million people!

Colloidal gold is a suspension consisting of sub-micron gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) suspended within a solvent, most often water.

 Colloidal gold has anti-inflammatory powers to alleviate pain and swelling among those with arthritis and bursitis. It has also shown promise for rejuvenating glandular systems to provide anti-aging, higher IQ, and pineal gland enhancing possibilities!

Colloidal gold can be made in many ways but

the method of Moses is the best

under those circumstances in the wilderness!

Remember the order of what Moses did…

The burning removed the impurities!

The stamping/ beating reduced it to thin sheets because of the special properties in the construct of gold itself.

Gold leaf can be made so thin

that it requires about 280,000 to make 1 inch.

Sheets as thin as 00.000004 inch have been made.

The grinding becomes easy then

and further information shows that Moses

ground it very fine, as fine as dust;

reducing it to the size of colloidal gold.

This was what he threw into the brook

and what made the water blood red.

It was not toxic because the impurities

have been burned out

and it was inhibiting towards germs.

The result was that the waters would be

blood red possessing purifying qualities!

All of this is a fitting type of the

blood of the Messiah.

This blood red solution

was taken by Moses

and presented before the Lord

as an atonement for their sin.

The record of this can be read in Exodus 32:30, 31, 32.

Here he said, peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin. The Father saw the blood red solution

which was a fit type of the blood of Messiah

and his wrath was averted and

his justice was appeased and

his love again flowed out towards them.

One last thing can be said concerning this Blood; that although Moses made an atonement and it was accepted by God, only those who appropriated it by faith were saved!

The others died… and it is a very strong suggestion made in the Scripture Exodus 32:26-28. True enough, it is not explicitly stated that the 3000 men slain by the swords of the Levites on that day were specifically the ones who

refused to bend down and

drink of the Crimson Brook

coming from the Mountain.

However it is suggested….and those who accepted God’s provision through the destruction of the molten Gold calf were saved.

Those who rejected were lost; and although it is true that Christ died for the sin of the whole world and he tasted death for every man, it still remains the fact that

only those who appropriate His provision by faith will be saved.

was opened from the side of Messiah/Mashiach on the cross.

From this day forward there is a stream flowing into which all who plunge, will receive remission of sins and eternal salvation.

To accept the Blood is to live.

To Reject it is to die.

What have we done with the Blood of the slain lamb? This very day in the Heavenlies, there is a resurrected Messiah Who paid the price for the sin of the world.

He is waiting to give Life, Joy, Victory and Peace

to all who will stoop down,

drink and live.

As the hymn says concerning our victory:

He plunges us to victory beneath the cleansing flow.

Since the life of Yeshua/Jesus is in His Blood.. 

if we plead, honor, sprinkle and sing about it

we are bringing in the chaim/lifes

and light of God into a situation. .

Darkness and death HAS to flee.

His Life is the Light of men.

The word atonement means a covering

we are protected with this covering which keeps us safe from the enemy. It is why John said in 1 John 5:18, the wicked one touches him not.

But like everything in the Word of God,

there is a condition

and the qualifications for this kind of protection is:

that the believer must keep her/himself.

This means that we must keep ourselves consciously under the blood. This means un-confessed sin is never under the blood… only when it is confessed, repented of, and forsaken are we then covered and protected.

As the world gets darker we need to weapons of our warfare at all times. Never remove your armor of Ephesians 6 and if you haven’t already add the blood of Jesus/Yeshua to your arsenal and use it every day over yourself your families and all our brothers and sisters worldwide.

There is power in the Blood of Yeshua/Jesus

wonder working power…

miracle working power and

most of all… it is the agent of our salvation.

As we come towards Yom Kippur this season,

let’s remember that

the Blood of Yeshua HaMashiach/Jesus Christ

continually cries out for us…

mercy forgiveness cleansing and redemption…

not just on one day of the year

but always and forever.

These are some of the reasons the devil and all demonically rooted entities fear the Blood of Yeshua/Messiah and why we must be covered by it. Stay under the Blood of Messiah Mishpochah at all times and remember…

 What The Word Says

The Blood Of Yeshua/Jesus Does For Us.

We overcome the adversary when we testify/speak out personally to what the Word of God says the Blood of Yesua/Jesus has done for us!

Through the blood of Messiah Jesus/Yeshua HaMashiach,

I am redeemed out of the hand of the adversary, all my sins are forgiven and as I walk in repentance, I am continually being cleansed from all sin.

I am justified and made righteous, sanctified, made holy, set apart to My Heavenly Father…

I have boldness to enter into the presence of My Heavenly Father because the Blood of Yeshua/Jesus cries Mercy/Forgivenesss continually in heaven on my behalf to the Father.

In Israel in the autumn (fall) of the year, we enter into an extremely important season of repentance/teshuvah in the Jewish/Hebrew calendar known as the Fall Feasts.

Feast of Trumpets: September 8-9, 2021

Heavenly Father I come to you in the Name of Jesus/Yeshua asking for forgiveness of my sins for which I am truly sorry. I repent of them all and turn away from my past.

Thank you that you have accepted me into your family in Jesus’/Yeshua’s name. Amen.

Rosh Hashanah

Some information regarding Rosh Hashanah greeting

רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה 

Rosh Hashana

The Jewish New Year

for Hebrew Year 5782

Rosh Hashanah

Hebrew: ראש השנה,

literally “head of the year”,

is the Jewish Civil New Year. It is also in remembrance of Breresheet/Genesis and the day of earths re-creation, or New birth, which can be likened to our new birth in Messiah Yeshua/Jesus.

It is the first of the High Holidays or

Yamim Noraim

(“Days of Awe”),

celebrated ten days before Yom Kippur.

Rosh Hashanah is observed on the first two days of Tishrei, the seventh month of the Hebrew calendar. It is described in the Torah as יום תרועה (Yom Teru’ah, a day of sounding [the Shofar]).

The New Moon Day of the seventh month is called

‘Yom Teruah’ (יוֹם תְּרוּעָה).

This is oftentimes translated as the

‘Day of Trumpets’,

although it actually translates more like the

‘Day of Blowing,’

or the ‘Day of Shouting.’

Yom Teruah literally means the Day of the Shofar Sound.

It is also called The Feast of Trumpets.

It occurs six cycles of the new moon (i.e. six months) after Pesach on the first day of the seventh month in the Biblical calendar.

It marks the end of a long, hot, and dry summer and the beginning of the fall festivals.

Most importantly Yom Teruah is a day of

shouting and alarm

to remind men that Yom Kippurim is near.

“There are only 10 days left”

for the wicked to repent of their wickedness

and join themselves to True Israel.

Each month throughout the year the reminder,

the warning cry, has been blown;

the seventh month is coming

and soon

it will be too late to repent.

Teshuvah.

Some greetings are:

 “Brachot l’shana tova ve…”

“ברכות לשנה טובה ו….”

“Greetings for a good and…year”.

“Have a happy and sweet new year” 

is Shanah tovah u’metuka.

 לשנה טובה תכתב.   l-shanah tovah tikatev

May you be written and inscribed for a good year!

Generally, “shana tovah” 

or “l’shava tova tikatev”

or “shana m’tuka”

and not the whole greeting and blessing.

There are four forms.

The correct greeting for Rosh Hashanah is

“L’shanah tovah”,

which translates to 

“for a good year”.

 People may also use a longer phrase, “Shanah Tovah um’tukah”,

Hebrew for “may you have a good and sweet new year.” 

Both form parts of the traditional full greeting of

“L’shanah tovah tikatev v’taihatem”

 L’Shanah Tovah Tikatevu: The literal Hebrew to English translation is

“May you be inscribed (in the Book of Life) for a good year.”

This traditional Rosh HaShanah greeting

wishes others a good year and is often shorted to

“Shanah Tovah” (Good Year) or “L’Shanah Tovah.”

לְשָׁנָה טוֹבָה. [To a] good year. [leʃaˈna toˈva] Hebrew.

Used as a greeting during Rosh Hashanah and the Days of Awe.

Also used, simply

” shanah tovah ” (שָׁנָה טוֹבָה),

meaning “a good year”,

or

” shanah tovah u’metukah ” (שָׁנָה טוֹבָה וּמְתוּקָה)

meaning “a good and sweet year”.

A more formal greeting commonly used among religiously observant Jews is

Ketivah VaChatimah Tovah

(Hebrew: כְּתִיבָה וַחֲתִימָה טוֹבָה‎), which translates as

“A good inscription and sealing [in the Book of Life]”,

or

L’shanah tovah tikatevu v’tichatemu meaning

“May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year”.

Shanah Tovah means good year, with no context. 

In L’Shanah Tovah, the “L” is a Hebrew preposition

that corresponds in this case to the English preposition “for”,

and the context is the greeting

“May you be inscribed for a good year!”

טובה שאנה

 

Jerusalem from above.

The Golden Gate through which Messiah is believed to enter

Jerusalem.

Many believe that He may return around the day of blowing of trumpets, or that the catching away of the ecclesia will occur at this season; however Yeshua/Jesus said Himself  

Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.

Yes we can see the day approaching and must be ready but we must remember He will come at an hour that we do not expect Him!

Luke 12:40 Be you therefore ready also: for the Son of man comes at an hour when you think not.

Luke 21:34-36. And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares…. Matthew 24:42,44
