Thinking Outside The Box On The Lighter Side Of Life?

God is LIGHT.

1 John1:5. This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is LIGHT, and in him is no darkness at all.

The first time we hear the word LIGHT is in Genesis 1:3.

In Hebrew the word Light is:

Or  – אוֹר.

(Familiar to us too, as part of the English word orb meaning a ball of light.)

For most of us, Light is a thing. Some scientists regard LIGHT as having zero mass, (no physical substance), however one of the other basic meanings for light is lamp: a device [noun] that sheds light.

The word LIGHT is a singular, common noun and can be concrete or abstract, depending on use; for example: Concrete: Turn off the light before you go to bed.

Some origins of the word Light:

Old English lēoht, līht (noun and adjective), līhtan (verb), of Germanic origin; related to Dutch licht and German Licht, from an Indo-European root shared by Greek: leukos- white and Latin: lux – light.

 Light in physics, is visible electromagnetic radiation. The most well known and dramatic example is the Northern and Southern Lights the Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis.

The human eye can typically detect radiation (light) in the wavelength range of about 400 to 750 nanometers. Nearby shorter and longer wavelength ranges, although not visible, are commonly called ultraviolet and infrared light.

A definition of Light: something that makes things visible or affords illumination:

All colors depend on light.

The interesting thing about the Hebrew word for LIGHT – Or, is that it is a verb, meaning, it is an action word.

It is a word that does something and it is also a prime root, meaning:

to be, or become light.

In our thinking, Light is an element that aids sight, or a time of day, or describes a color tone, which is very different.

Strongs #216 Or/Ohr:

Phonetic Spelling: (ore)

Pronounced OAR

’ō·wr

Sometimes also written AR and AWR

As we are discovering everything is connected, so this is a follow on to the posts on Shofar and Jubilee Yovel/Yobel and the Keys of Light; because there is a further amazing connection between them all.

First, let’s look at Light, with reference to the ancient Paleo Hebrew Texts and their pictograph letters.

Genesis 1:3.

Vayomer Elokim yehi-or vayehi-or.

God said, Let there be light, and there was light.

let there – yehi/ yhi – יְהִ֣י – the letters Yod+Hey+Yod

Light Be – (yehi) – or. אוֹר – the letters Alef+Waw/Vav+Resh/Reysh

This was an action.

The first use of the Hebrew language is in Genesis in the creation account:

yehi or – Light Be!

Which can also be written:

yehiy or,

meaning:

light exist.

God also gave Hebrew names to the

sky (shamayim),

land (erets),

sun (shemesh),

moon (yerey’ach),

stars (kokhaviym)

and man (adam).

When God formed Adam he apparently gave him this spoken language and communicated with him (Genesis 1.28). The man also used this same language to give names to all of the birds (oph),

animals (behemah),

beasts (hayahsadeh)

and woman (iyshah).

Since God is the originator of the Hebrew language, He is also the originator of the alphabet. Over time all alphabets evolve. Therefore, it is possible for the writing system of Noah’s day to display changes from the alephbet given to Adam.

In the ancient Hebrew Paleo Pictograph language, the word light is very close to the Ancient Hebrew word for box. It would certainly have given us something to question if the people who translated the original text had put it in the word box instead of light! Genesis 1:3 would have read, Let there be box and box was!

However, there is a very interesting relationship between the two words.

The word LIGHT in Genesis 1:3 is translated as AWR (OR) and is pronounced oar.

There are several different spellings for the same word so they are included here so we don’t get confused and think it is a different word with a different meaning.

(OHR – OR – ORE – AR – AWR – OWR).

Remember to read from right to left in the pictograph below. Alef Waw Resh

So as not to be confused, note that the letters W, WAW is also known as = VAV for V

And the letter R for Resh also known as Reysh.

Numerical value of the letters:

A =1; V/W= 6; R=200.

The 3 pictographs are:

Resh/Reysh – Waw/Vav – Alef

Aleph – pronounced as AH or EH. Picture of the ox head, meaning: strength and power, yoked to.

Waw or vav – pronounced as W, O or U. Picture of the nail or hook, meaning: to add something, or secure a thing.

And Resh or Reysh pronounced as R. Picture of is the head of a person, meaning: Headship, chief, first.

The parent root word, (which means, where the basic meaning is found;) comes from AR.

AR in its basic definition is the verb meaning: ORDER, to order, to gather, to organize.

A further definition is shown by what is called the concrete noun, meaning the object or thing, and this is the word BOX. A BOX can be thought of as a kind of tool or helper, an aid; something that is used for organizing or creating order.

AR – Alef Resh

The A -Alef is a picture of an Ox, which in the west is more commonly called a cow.

The Alef speaks of the action to lead, leading, to be led by, to be put in the front.

The actual, or concrete meaning, is an Ox – one of a team yoked together. One of the two yoked oxen would be experienced, in order to help the other less experienced one. So the weaker would learn from the stronger by following.

(Note here of the meaning behind Jesus/Yeshua saying, that His Yoke was easy.

Why?

Because He is the more experienced of the 2 in the yoke. The 2 in the yoke being us and Him, as we are yoked together with Him in covenant. He also gives us the command: Follow Me. He leads us, as in Ps.23.)

Lastly the abstract concept in the Alef is one of strength.

The second letter R – Resh/Reysh is a picture of a persons head and speaks first of the action, the doing, to start, to begin. As well as concrete images, giving us an understanding of a top, or a summit, like that of a mountain; and also that of a human being as being the top, or highest, of all of Gods’ creation.

So from this we learn that R/resh, represents the concept of top, or source, strength from above and being led from above, from the top.

Returning to the image of boxes, with this meaning, order and organization would appear to have something to do with: being led from the top and strength from above.

In the middle East millennia ago, the idea of Boxes/containers, would have not been uncommon to a people whose nomadic lifestyle necessitated continually packing up and moving. No doubt they had something in which to place and carry their possessions.

When we move from one place to another, we too are familiar with boxes.

Placing items into containers is a natural action and we usually place items down into a box from above.

In Hebrew thought, it could be described as a strong action and also as having strength to function; whereas viewing an unorganized, disarrayed pile of items spread around everywhere, (not in a box), and not collected; could be weak when considered in comparison, and lacking the strength of order and organization.

Boxes in this ancient Hebraic thinking are examples of strength from above.

Next, looking at the Hebrew word AWR for light, the root coming from AR, in this word there is a letter W in the middle. This letter is a WAW or a VAV. It is a letter that is added in between the A and R. It is called an infix.

The Pictograph for the letter WAW or VAV is a nail, which gives the visual meaning of binding, or attaching, as in an action like adding a tent peg.

It also has an abstract concept of adding to, or, increase and is used as the connecting or conjunction word: AND.

When the letter WAW or VAV is added to words, it appears to give a greater emphasis to its’ meaning.

In this case it indicates that it is taking a single event of carefully placing items in order into a box and is turning it into a broader conceptual meaning; that of getting everything in order, as in overall organization and light.

Without light in a room, it would be almost impossible to get everything in order. To see what we are doing, we need light. To organize items, whether in a kitchen, garage or office, we also need containers or boxes because things get mixed up and chaotic without order.

With the addition of the letter waw/vav, the nail, we are given a word with an adjusted meaning of:

order that is more enduring in its existence, it is longer lasting and is attached to everything

and this is referring to

LIGHT – AWR/OR.

In Hebrew thought, Light has strength from above, having the same properties as the pictographs show for the box.

However, this strength is enduring and affects everything.

The thing that unites these is the common theme of ORDER that comes out of disorder, confusion and chaos.

The place we started was at Genesis/Beresheet/Beginning, where Darkness (hashak) was on the face of the deep before the account of the creation events.

There was a lot of organizing in the sequence recorded here. God came and it is stated that the waters were separated/organized; darkness and light were separated/organized;

sea and land were separated/organized and given boundaries.

Animals, fish, birds, etc., were told to multiply within their own kind; they were separated and organized into species, like being placed into a kind of box. None of this could take place without LIGHT. The scripture says God is LIGHT and He also spoke and said LIGHT BE and there was LIGHT.

LIGHT was the medium of transference, the WAY in which He caused ORDER to come forth from Himself, (as He IS LIGHT); and to in turn bring order out of Chaos in the creation of the earth. In a similar way we organize things in our thinking and then put it into practice by organizing, ordering and putting the things around us that we need in our lives. We invariably put things in boxes or one sort or another.

In John 8:12, He promises we shall have the LIGHT of life; this may be a reference to the order of our new born again life experience coming out of the chaos of our lost state. He came that we might have life (chaim/lifes) and He said He was the LIGHT and LIFE of men, so He was; in exactly the WAY that the Father sent order and LIGHT to humanity. When we follow Him, our walk will not be a walk of confusion and chaos but as we walk in the LIGHT as He is, we will have a walk of organized order, which is a reflection of our Heavenly Father and His Creation.      

In previous posts we looked at the Shofar and the Hebrew word had a vav in it, as do other words we have looked at. In the same way some English words have different spellings (e.g. U.S. and U.K. use an s or a z in the word realise/realize) and in word endings like yesterdays or holidays, just an s is added to make a plural ending. There is also the plural ending of ies, for words like daisy into daisies. So variations are not uncommon.

Why is this important?

Because in the Hebrew language there is more of a reasoning and meaning by adding the letter vav/waw to a word.

And this will help us to see the connection between Light, Yovel, Shofar, Jubilee and Box.

The LIGHT of Gods’ throne/presence, rested on the mercy seat /kapporet between the cherubim/keruvim on the covering /lid of the ARK/BOX of the covenant.

https://www.minimannamoments.com/are-we-boxed-in/

This same LIGHT– OR, that was present at creation was the same Word that was also there.

The Hebrew word for ARK, ARON, has the same root letter AR as the word for a vessel/container, as does the vessel Noah built, both by Gods’ design for construction.

This was also an ARK of that covenant promise and would have looked more like a BOX than a boat shape that we think of today.

So A and R, Alef and Resh/Reysh,

are the root letters of both

BOX – ARON and LIGHT- AWR.

Recall that in the Ancient Hebrew mind, LIGHT is seen as ORDER, as without light we would be lost in the chaos of darkness.

So we see the Hebrew word for light is אור (or) and is derived from the parent root אר (ar). The word derived from this parent root is the word: ארון – aron, pronounced a-rone: formed by adding the ון to the end of the root letters A&R.

This word means a box and is also related to order, in the sense that items are placed within boxes as a way of bringing about some kind of order.

The Ark of the Covenant was a BOX that was used to place important items within it, including: the stone tablets with the 10 sayings inscribed on them, Aaron’s staff was in there and the pot of Manna, this was done by placing down into it from above, kept them in order.

Jesus/Yeshua, is not only the Word but also our ARK we get into Him for our salvation.

He was there at the beginning – Beresheet -Genesis – בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית

Colossians 1:16-17  “For by him [Jesus] all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.”

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  The same was in the beginning with God.  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.  In him was life; and the life was the light of men.  And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. John 1:1-5

He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. John 1:10

Jesus/Yeshua is the light that was there at the beginning.

Jesus/Yeshua is the fulfillment of prophecy and of the Jubilee/Yubel.

All words are made up of alphabet letters, from alef to tav.

Jesus/Yeshua said He was the alef tav.

He is the Word. He is the alefbet.

He is the fulfillment of every prophetic utterance and no word of God returns void. Is. 55:11.

That is the whole essence and reason for prophecy; it is the spoken Word. When we declare His Word, His power is in those words and must also be contained in the individual letters that make up the word; especially in the Hebrew and Aramaic language.

God always begins with the Word. John1, and the Word was before all things He has always existed. The Word brought forth the creation into existence. From nothingness, came the universe by means of the Word.

He spoke before it existed.

First the Word, then the reality.

This is the essence and order of prophecy, speaking forth the oracles of God.

Before He creates, He sends forth the Word; and so He sent His Word -Jesus/Yeshua. He sent an angel to speak the WORD to Miriam; and then the Word was made flesh. Before creation, He sends forth His word, and Jesus/Yeshua came. Then restoration was created, through His life, death and resurrection.

I am the resurrection and the life –

I am the alef and the tav. (alpha-omega. Gk.) Jesus/Yeshua is all the letters.

Tav tikomah = resurrection in Hebrew. Resurrection is the ultimate restoration, return and the fulfillment of the prophetic Jubilees.

It is our ultimate end and our victory. This is the victory that overcomes.

He is our Jubilee, the resurrection and the life.

As resurrection is supernatural, it’s a reversal of death, just as jubilee is a reversal of loss, resurrection brings back, restores and raises up what was dead, that which was lost. We were dead in sin and similarly Israel was ‘dead’ also, no longer existing as a nation until 1948 when it was reborn, restored and the people returned. Teshuvah = return.

With any birth in the natural, growth occurs into what has not yet been; going from childhood to maturity.

Resurrection is not the same process.

Resurrection does not begin from the beginning, from birth, but from the end; from the conclusion of what we had become and at death, what we once were.

In Resurrection, we become again what we were at the final point.

Example: at His resurrection, Jesus/Yeshua did not become a baby again but was seen as He was before death, however He was changed from glory to glory, better than before.

So resurrection and Jubilee are synonymous. At resurrection we will be restored and return to the father in a final Jubilee/Yubel for all. As the yubel/shofar sounds,

Lev. 25; you shall return – TASHUVU.

The law of Jubilees was commanded in Lev. 25 and had a fulfillment in Israel in 1948.

Jesus/Yeshua is the fulfillment of every prophetic word, of every covenant, becoming the agent of salvation, the agent of yubel/jubilee.

He was the perfect sacrificial lamb of God, the covenant keeper, the Light/awr, that was contained in the box/ark/aron. He is our ark/box as typified in Noah whose ark/aron/box saved His family. We are Messiahs family/משפחה /Mish-pa-KHa; and we are the people who lived in darkness who have seen a great light/or/awr. For He is the Light and His life is the light of men.

Psalm 119:105  Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

Psalm 130:5 In His Word I Hope.

As Jesus/Yeshua said when on the earth, He was Light in this world; now we are the Light. So it’s time to let our lights shine.

Matthew 5:16: “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”

Even if our light seems small … it is enough to disperse and dispel the darkness.

In Hebrew, HhaSHak = darkness.

In Greek:

σκοτίᾳ,   skotia

darkness 

φῶς  phōs

light

The Word is Torah, God’s instruction/teaching.

The word Torah refers to the first five books of the bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy – Torah, the instruction teaching of Moses. Hebrew is read from right to left;
Below are the Hebrew alphabet letters that make up the word TORAH, and each words’ meaning: 

Torah comes from the word orah – light. Every time we see the word Light in the scripture, we could also read it as Torah. This is why His Word is a lamp to our feet and a Light to our pathWAY.

Torah gives teaching and instruction, direction and guidance. So by Thinking Outside The Box On The Lighter Side Of Life; and examining the ancient pictographs, in which it was possibly first written; there is an amazing connection between the letters A&R in the Hebrew words for Yovel/Shofar/Jubilee and Light, Box/Ark.

Jesus/Yeshua is Light, Torah, Lifes/Chaim, the Word, Yovel, Jubilee, Teshuvah, Covenant and Box/Ark, because everything points to Messiah where everything has its alef and tav!

Shalom shalom Mishpachah/ Family.

Don’t leave this page without knowing for absolute certain you are an ark. 

An ARON –

a treasure chest of His Presence!

You are greatly loved and precious in His sight.

Make certain Jesus is your Redeemer, Savior, Lord and soon returning King and that you have a personal relationship with Him.

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.

How is Yovel Connected To The Fingerprint of God, Keys of Light, The Shofar and Jubilee? Part 2

The fingerprint of God is the confirming visual aspect of the God of Creation.

Fingerprints of Gods’ original authorship, can be seen in everything around us which has the breath and energy of life within it.

After we have placed our lives into His Hands, that is when we will begin to see His fingerprints on and in them.

Even the rams’ horn, from which the Shofar is made, shows the fingerprint of God, as does DNA.

1 John 1:5 – This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is LIGHT, and in him is no darkness at all.

The Keys of Light seem to be, the

revealed knowledge

imparted to those with

eyes to see and ears to hear

as opened by

Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh. Eph. 1:8

16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. 17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them. KJV. Matt.13:15-17

This is understanding the spiritual and comprehending the dimension Jesus/Yeshua came to demonstrate.

Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, Acts 16:14 

When God opens the spiritual eyes inside of us, it may be opposite to what we have always thought; and may change both how we see a situation, and what we believe about it.

Our world view takes on a new look as the veils are removed. Just as the moment that the fog lifts and reveals what was there all the time, we simply could not see through the fog/veil.

While we cannot help but be affected by circumstances surrounding us, our spiritual senses can be sharpened to such a degree that, we can actually benefit from them.

This only comes from spending time in the presence of the Lord, for it is only then that we can see our circumstances through His eyes: that is when the eyes of our understanding are being enlightened.

When Jesus/Yeshua said in Matthew 13:13 Seeing they do not see.

He was no doubt referring to more than the use of the natural eyes and ears.

Paul makes a strange statement saying, that you must have “the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know” (Ephesians 1:18). Indicating that the heart has eyes!

The heart of the spirit apparently also has a door, upon which He knocks; and the lock is on the inside. Only we can open it to let in the Lord and His enlightening Spirit. The lock needs a KEY of LIGHT that illuminates, and as God is Light, so it is as Messiah said, He gives the Keys.

Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Ps 119:105

Locks are usually the recipients of keys and locks are mostly integral to, or somehow connected to, doors. They are also called portals, and as we have seen in paleo pictographs of the Hebrew letter dalet, this letter comes from the word meaning Door.

Paleo-Pictograph meaning of Dalet is:

Door, passageway, the process of entering in.

Also means threshold, starting point, point of entry, gate, must begin here.

These are His instructions; when He said I Am the Door of the sheep, we are to follow.

He gave us the example, manifested in the door. He is the One who opened the passage for us to enter in. He is also our guard, defender, shield and Shepherd.

We are to…Seek the kingdom… and we are given the keys. It’s up to us to find the doors and locate the locks, for He told us if we seek we shall find, knock and it shall be opened.

Every door leads somewhere. Every portal opens into something, mostly houses/ buildings of one type or another. The question is, who does the building belong to?

If we have a key and permission to use it, then we are also permitted entrance and obviously welcome; as we must know the owner who gave us the key. We would not give a stranger the key to our house.

Likewise Messiah gives us His KEYS to His house, which is the inner spiritual house of our physical being of which He is now the owner because we now belong to Him and are no longer strangers. We have His Keys of Light.

There is one nation which has never been eradicated throughout all of history. One group of people has survived where others have not.

They are His miraculous witness, they exist for the plan and purpose of God – chosen and separated; set-apart for the specific purpose to declare His existence and fulfill His purpose in restoring us to Himself. In the wilderness, the nation was reborn from bondage and became the herald of future events declaring the end before it began.

In Deut. 30:1-4, Moses declared the journey which Israel would take through all its times of tragedy and captivity. However, He also said they would return to the land. In fact, Moses says that when these events occur, God will do an amazing thing. He says that the Lord himself “will return and gather” His people from their captivity, it was a reference to the Jubilee ordinance.

Ex 19:19 As the sound of the ram’s horn grew louder and louder, Moses would speak and God would answer with a voice/shofar/thunder. 

They were to sound the rams horn/shofar.

Leviticus 25:10 (KJV).

And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

There’s only one place in the writings where the rams horn shofar is connected to the words you shall return, and it’s in Lev. 25:10 and is called the law of Jubilees.

The Jubilee is God’s origination and ordained by Him that at the Jubilee, all that has been lost is restored. In Jubilee year we come home and separation from family and land is ended and everything is returned and restored back to the original owner.

Here is another key of light/revealed knowledge.

The connection between the rams horn/shofar and jubilee is that,

the rams horn/the shofar

WAS THE SIGN

of the Jubilee.

It was the rams’ horn/shofar,

that both

ushered in

and

proclaimed its’ coming,

all through the land,

every 50 years.

This was given to Israel and the children of Israel, which includes every grafted in born again believer.

It is a returning to our ancestral possession/land. Deut. 30:3. The sign of the end times would be the return of Israel to her land of the promise!

There have been many Jubilees.

Yovel/Jubilee and Shofar are synonymous; and this is why the Shofar is called the Yovel. And it is why we have missed the deeper significance, when we only read the English words that have been translated from the Hebrew and Aramaic languages.

(Remember Bet/beit and vet, Bb and Vv are the same in the Hebrew alef-bet so the letters are interchangeable).

It is so much clearer when we read the Hebrew word as there is no letter J in the Alef bet, instead it is the letter Y.

Jubilee reads Y B L – even pronouncing the letters without vowels, it immediately sounds and reads like the Hebrew word; and adding vowel sounds makes it complete.

Now it is easier to see that Jesus/Yeshua is not only the Dalet /the Door; but also our Jubilee/Yubel. He is the physical manifestation of heralding the return and restoration of all things; the shofar declaring its imminent arrival and His impending return. 

The fact is, that all language needs a Voice, a Kol, and that voice also needs a frequency in the form of sounds to express itself.

To the foreigner another language sounds like nonsense; just a jumble of noise. But to the one who knows that language it makes perfect sense. This is true of all animals, birds, and sea life which communicate in their own way with sound; e.g the whales are even said to have a song.

So why would we not think the sound of a shofar would not communicate something to the listener as expelled by the blower?

The main KEY to this is Yom Kippur. The rams horn/SHOFAR is what ushers in and brings the Jubilee/Yovel.

Yom Kippur is the Key to Yovel.

Here is another key of light/revealed knowledge.

Jubilee represents the setting in motion of God’s purposes. It sets the stage, initiates and inaugurates the course; sets in motion a sequence of events, moving forward until the next Jubilee.

A sequence of prophetic purposes, that with the passage of time, will become increasingly manifest in the natural realm.

It’s the fruition of the seeds planted,

it sets in motion a new cycle,

it ends one and immediately begins another,

it opens up a new era,

it unleashes His appointed purposes.

It is a name based on the SHOFAR that was sounded to proclaim it’s coming. The year of YOVEL, when slaves and prisoners were set free; it is year of restoration.

The Jubilee/Yovel, can only begin

on one specific day.

Yom Kippur.

The Day of Atonement.

Why?

Because blessings can only come after being reconciled to God; and the only way that was possible was through the atonement.

So apart from Yom Kippur there can be no Jubilee. No atonement = no release, no freedom, and no restoration.

The atonement is the sacrifice of Messiah.

What is the Yovel key?

The key is Yom Kippur

because it brings the yovel,

the atonement, the at-one-ment.

Therefore if Messiah is the atonement and we are IN HIM, it could be said we also bring the Jubilee and the more we dwell in the atonement, the more we will live in the Jubilee.

To have the power of Jubilee means:

having the power to walk in freedom,

and the power of returning home,

the power of reconciliation,

the power of liberty and

the power to be restored to God-given inheritance.

To do this we must go deeper into Messiah, and into His atonement and this is achieved by way of relationship.

Deep calls to deep, and from Messiah comes our Jubilee because from Yom Kippur comes the Yovel.

Yud, Vav, Bet, Lamed.

As Yom Kippur is always preceded by trumpets which focuses on the end, it announces the closing of the annual sacred cycle.

The Shofar/trumpet will one day announce the coming of Kings and kingdoms. It is prophesied that when the Shofar trumpet sounds, the kingdom of God will come.

Shofar/trumpets call the people to gather before God. So it’s prophesied that at the sound of the Shofar/trumpet Gods’ people will be gathered up into His presence.

It’s a wake up call, and it will be enough to wake the dead!

And it will announce the start of a king’s reign.

Meaning: when it sounds, the reign of THE King will begin. The kingdom of this world will become the kingdom of the Lord.

These appointed times, are just as much a part of the new renewed covenant, as are the appointed days of spring. They are telling us, that faith is not only in what was, as in their fulfillment, but also of what is yet to come.

We live our lives FROM salvation and yet TO redemption. Our HOPE/TIKVAH is in the Lord.

Lev. 23:24; Matt. 24:31; 1Cor. 15:52; 1Thess. 4:16.

Lev. 25:10.

Jubilee is all about separation,

it’s Hallow, Holy, as in set apart. The command is to separate out and to treat it differently than the 49 yrs that preceded it.

First it’s a kadosh/holy year unto the Lord like no other year.

This is true both for corporate and personal observation.

2nd it’s a proclamation of liberty, freedom.

3rd it’s all about the inhabitants and citizens (which we are spiritually grafted into) of Israel.

4th its about the multiplication of time. This time period is 7yrs and 7 is the number of completion. This Year is 5780. Meanings: grace, completion, new beginnings.

Lev. 25 :8-10, the Shofar is to be sounded and is based on mathematics: 7×7+1=50

5th thing is restoration

yod means to work pictured as a hand to do a deed to make something to accomplish a purpose.

VAV pictured as an iron nail; means to add, to secure, to join together, to bind together, to make a connection between 2 things which are separated from each other. It’s a wooden peg and a wooden hook and it means: to hold up.

BET has the idea of a child or family and it pictured as a tent or house; a picture of a dwelling place. It means inside and is the 1st letter in the Torah – Bereshit that identifies the Son of God.

LAMED pictured as the staff of a shepherd; means control, to have authority, to urge forward, it’s the voice of authority.

Putting these together is clearly supportive of the common meaning of

Jubilee: A divine/holy deed is being done that restores families to their homes where they are once again joined together and revived and renewed and regain the authority and control over the land and possessions that were once lost.

There’s a further apocalypse though, which does not focus on Israel and the land, or its restoration. Nor is it restricted to Israel or the Jewish people; this is because it is about the Messianic Jubilee.

The deeper significance is in the spiritual sense as a prophetic forecast. And its implications are more far reaching because it’s for all people, everywhere on the face of the earth. It is declaring that God has a divine plan that will be revealed and unfold at the appointed time/MOED; in order to deliver mankind from the wrath of God, the bondage of sin and eternal separation from His presence/throne in Shamayim/heavens.

This Jubilee will heal and restore the breach between people and their Creator, through the atoning sacrifice of Messiah. Only through the blood of Jesus/Yeshua shed at Calvary, are our sins forgiven. Then we are invited to be reunited with our Heavenly Father and adopted into the family of God and one day we will be in His presence eternally.

This is the freedom that is being declared in the shadow type of Jubilee; this is Jesus/Yeshua’s Jubilee/Yubel/Yovel, and the one that Jesus/Yeshua declared in Galilee, recorded in Luke 4:18,19 when He read from the Isaiah scroll.

Rom 10: 9-10 says that it was being fulfilled by Him.

Jesus/Yeshua is our Jubilee.

Lev. 25:10.

Our conventional understanding of 50 is 7×7 + 1.

7 is divine completion, but of what?

What is the meaning behind the numbers of Jubilee/YOVEL – 10 6 2 30?

Yod with a numerical value 10: the perfection of a divine order, completeness of divinely ordered events, completing an order.

One of 4 sacred numbers and means ordinal perfection.

Vav with a numerical value of 6: means enmity with God, weakness of man, imperfection and the manifestation of sin and the evils of satan/adversary. It also means to fall short, to labor, to sorrow. It’s the number of man’s secular completeness and therefore the number of mans world.

Bet 2 is the first number in which there is a division; it can have a dual meaning and is made up of 2 other numbers 1+1. It can mean to indicate a difference of opinion, e.g. evil vs. good; and indicates that another 1 can come alongside us, the second one, or someone who comes alongside, either to hinder, or to help/assist.

It also refers to part of the creator God as the Son, the living Word. He was there at the beginning, He is the Alef and Tav. It is revealed to us as a beautiful picture as it is the first number/letter in Torah. At the creation account, it is the first letter of the first word, Bereshit; not genesis. It is a letter B/bet/beyt, and is the picture of a house or tent and the number value of 2.

Both the picture and numerical value point to the Son of God. The only Son, the uncreated Son, who was the divinely conceived, Son of the Father.

Lamed 30 means blood sacrifice.

It is 3 x 10 – 3 is divine perfection and x10 = ordinal perfection.

The result being, the divine order is at a magnified perfection – marking the right time.

The fact that 3 and 10 are 2 of the sacred numbers and are in the root of Jubilee/Yubel, indicates that whatever is hidden in this number is of extreme significance.

There are other numbers that are related to the sequencing of time, 40, 50, 300 and 400 and all are divisible by 10. However, 10 is the only one regularly used in the scriptures as the divine prophetic multiplier.

10 forecasts there is a divine plan in place unfolding in time and space. It can also be taken with other numbers in the same word, to forecast a particular and precise period of time. Wherever a number can be divided by 10, it indicates that there is a revelation in that number, that has something to do with the 5 W’s. Those 5 being, the Who, the What, Where, When and Why; as related to the divinely ordained plan of God.

6 is mans number, and as 7 is a sacred number that reveals divine completion, so 6 falls short of God’s perfection.

1 = God, Humans are short of perfection by 1 because they are without God.

6 magnifies man’s imperfection and is the manifestation of man’s secular completion; and always comes to an end with sin, sorrow and failure. More than any other number, 6 is the one that reminds us that we are at enmity with God and unable in our own strengths, to bridge the gap. It also reminds us that we are travelers passing through man’s fallen and corrupt world. Friendship with the world is enmity with God. We can’t serve God and mammon and invariably our lives are ruled by one or the other.

As we have seen, HaYovel, which in Hebrew means The Jubilee;

pronounced: HA-yo-VEL.

יוֹבֵל  lamed, bet, vav, yod, also has the meaning ram’s horn, trumpet. 

Yovel or yobel {yob-ale’}; apparently from yabal; the blast of a horn (from its continuous sound); specifically, the signal of the silver trumpets; hence, the instrument itself and the festival thus introduced — jubile, ram’s horn, trumpet.

According to Jewish tradition, the reestablishment of the Biblically-mandated Jubilee year, is part of the Messianic process. In Judaism, it is a positive religious commandment “to sanctify the 50th year” (Leviticus 25:8).

When all the twelve tribes lived in Israel, in their ancestral estates, the year following seven complete Shemittah cycles—the fiftieth year—was observed as Yovel, the Jubilee year. During Yovel, too, the land was not worked, as during Shemittah.

The Shemitah, (sometimes spelled Shemittahor or Shmita), is the final year in a seven-year cycle of debt forgiveness and land use, prescribed for Israel in the Old Testament. Known also as the Sabbatical Year. The Sabbatical Year and The Jubilee Year (Yovel), provided for a period of both social equality and ecological recovery, a year of REST/SHALOM.

Most Hebrew scholars agree that the original meaning of the word ‘Yovel’ (Hebrew for ‘jubilee’) is ‘ram’ or ‘deer’, as can be found in the Book of Joshua: “Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of RAM’S horns before the ark.

Every 50th year is considered YOVEL, meaning, that all Jewish slaves are freed and that all land which has changed hands in the years since the last YOVEL now returns to the hands of its original owner.

Jubilee (biblical) The Jubilee ( Hebrew: יובל  yōḇel; Yiddish: yoyvl) is the year at the end of seven cycles of shmita (Sabbatical years), and according to Biblical regulations had a special impact on the ownership and management of land in the Land of Israel; 

Yovel’s origin and use are both in the Hebrew language. Yovel is a variant form of the English name Jubal. Modern Hebrew has adopted the European sense of the word, and a Yovel can mean the marking of any anniversary. 

The name Jubilee is from the Hebrew word yovel, “ram’s horn,” the year being so called because a ram’s horn was sounded when it was proclaimed (Leviticus 25:9). 

Hebrew: יובל yōḇel; Yiddish: yoyvl) is the year at the end of seven cycles of shmita (Sabbatical years).

When Yovel/Jubilee arrives, the Jewish slave becomes once again a free person, who is devoted only to the service of Adonai/the Lord, and not to a human master and so, liberty takes on a new meaning. However it does not mean ownerless, rather it means belonging to the rightful, natural Master.

At the end of days, when Messiah/Mashiach shall arrive, we will return to the Source, and our natural condition, an existence unencumbered by a Yetzer Hara, an existence in which our sole desire will be to derive pleasure from Our Heavenly Father’s infinite perfection.

Yetzer Hara in Hebrew: יֵצֶר הַרַע  refers to the congenital inclination to do evil, by violating the will of God.

The term is drawn from the phrase: the imagination of the heart of man [is] evil. (Hebrew: יֵצֶר לֵב הָאָדָם רַע, yetzer lev-ha-adam ra).

The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

The yetzer hara represents the inner impulse or tendency within the human heart to gravitate toward selfish gratification (the word yetzer first appears in Genesis 6:5 

The Yetzer HaTov, is the spirit, that tells us to do good and to be loyal to God; it’s the good inclination and inner impulse to do good.

Yetzer יֵצֶר

Strongs # 3336 pronounced yay’-tser meaning: a form, framing, purpose, intent, intentions, mind.

So now we can see how Yovel is connected to the Fingerprint of God, the Keys of Light, the Shofar and Jubilee.

We are Yuval – led by Messiah Jesus/Yeshua.

Jesus/Yeshua is Jubilee/Yubel/Yovel/the Atonement/rams horn/Shofar who gave us the keys of His Kingdom, the keys of light and God’s fingerprint is on all of it.

We are in Jubilee and a divine/holy, set-apart deed is being done, as we work out our salvation, we are being restored to the Father and joined together into the family of God where all that was lost is regained, revived and renewed.

May the song of our life be as the sound of music to our Heavenly Father.

Shalom, shalom

How is Yovel Connected To The Fingerprint of God, Keys of Light, The Shofar and Jubilee?

If the Creator has a plan, then it must be accessible, comprehensible and applicable, or it would not be a plan. It would be an imagined dream, without substance or realization. It is however a reality that truth is tangible and has a beginning and an end. His blueprint is encapsulated within everything down to the DNA of each creature.

Every detail is precise and intrinsic within His design.

All creation declares the sovereignty of the Lord.

Click link  https://www.minimannamoments.com/eternity-of-eternities/

Sovereignty of God.

“The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever” 

Psalm 29:10.

Yours, LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, LORD, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all.

To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is the Almighty, the Possessor of all power in Heaven and earth, so that none can defeat His counsels, thwart His purpose, or resist His will. Psalm 115:3.

To say that God is Sovereign is to declare that He is “The Governor among the nations”. Psalm 22:28.

Psalm 19:1 “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.”

John 1:3 “Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.” 

Psalm 95:3-5 “For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods.

Psalm 41:1-2: “The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; 2 for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters.”

The Psalmist often worshipped God because God rescued him; Psalm 18:16-17, provided for him, Psalm 23:1; and led him.Ps. 32:8.

God is not haphazard, nothing is by chance. Everything is calculated and ordained to coalesce with His timed order of events, of which we are an integral part.

The mystery of the gospel was encoded within the Word of God, Who, Himself created the heavens and the earth.

His specific sequence of unfolding events, are the fulfillment of almost 6000 years of prophetic declarations.

The types and shadows and patterns are most obvious in the cycle of His appointed times in the annual calendar.


This yearly adherence to the rehearsal, is the continuing reminder of the meaning of life; and is so beautifully played out in the appearance of a precisely coordinated theatrical production.

This annual display, has reinforced the habitual observance of the encoded mysteries, the most spectacular of which is about to be revealed, as the culmination of this amazing plan of the ages reaches its zenith.

Which are a shadow of the things to come, the substance of the Messiah. Col.2:17

The end was in the beginning and was foretold before the actual events came to pass in the earth. They are so accurate, that the manifold facts we have recorded in our historical documents, are proof the Word of God is true.

I declare the end from the beginning, and ancient times from what is still to come, saying: ’My purpose will stand, and all My good pleasure I will accomplish.’ Is 49:9,10

Berean Study Bible

This is most obvious even in a brief search of the fulfilled prophesies concerning the people and the land of Israel. These facts then inform us that all that is yet to come to pass, is clearly within His Word for us to find.

Both Daniel and John were told to seal up pertinent information and knowledge until the time of the end, when knowledge would be increased; now more than ever in history knowledge is increasing exponentially each and every day.

But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.Dan 12:4

Although John’s primary purpose in writing Revelation is to reveal, (Rev.1:1; Rev.22:10), here he is commanded to omit the utterance of the seven thunders from the biblical record.

Rev 10:4

Rev. 22:10 Then he told me, “Do not seal up the words of prophecy in this book, because the time is near.” 

Our origins are deeply embedded in the mysteries of the ancient manuscripts; not only confirming what has gone, but warning of the apocalypse/revealing we are right in the midst of today.

The events surrounding our daily lives are being determined by what was written millennia ago; and whether we believe it or not or understanding it or not, it is happening, and progressively unfolding with or without our approval or engagement.

These mysteries are connected to the Jubilee, the Yovel /the Yobel,/the Shofar and were birthed in the wilderness on the top of a mountain.

Lev. 25:10–11; Luke 4:18,19; Galatians 5:1. The Jubilean mysteries began with Moses, in a desert on a mountain called Sinai, where the law of yovel/yobel, or Jubilee, was given.

Leviticus 25:9 (KJV). Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of Atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.

These same mysteries have determined the course of human activity causing human empires to rise and to fall, many disappearing from existence entirely with no trace.

As we look at the past, it is important to remember that ancient years were not numbered as we mark them today.

We call messages from God prophecy, which, by its very nature requires faith. It exists whether we believe it or not. Our believing in something, does not make it more real; and not believing it, doesn’t diminish it.

To find out that which we do not know or have, then we have to become receptive to things that we have never known or believed exist.

The signs, the events, and occurrences are not random; there is no chance, no luck, involved in the purpose of life. History, life, and our whole existence, is not an accident. No one is an accident or a mistake.

God’s fingerprint is on all life in the form of patterns.

These are based on what we term as, mathematics and geometrical designs and we have called the golden ratio/Fibonacci sequence.

There have always been Gods’ spokespersons, chosen as vessels to bring forth divine revelation. They could be called, the people of the apocalypse or people of the revealing. Prophets, seers, messengers of, and, sent by God.

Probably the most famous Biblical example that was not from God, one was the oracle at Delphi which was a prophetic phenomenon that existed from 7th century BC to the 4th century AD and was considered to be the most reputable oracle among the Greeks. Acts 16:16

When God declares ahead of time what will be, here’s how He declares it, or says it: saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose.’ Is 46:9-11 In other words, the way He declares His foreknowledge is by declaring His fore-counsel and His fore-purposing.

Prophets, Seers, messengers of God, those chosen as the vessels of divine revelation; not fortune tellers, but forth tellers. Speaking forth the Plan and purpose of God before the events occur; and declaring the details with accuracy that can only come from the God of creation. The One who knows the end from the beginning and everything in between.

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets. Amos 3:7

These are not tentative predictions or prognostications but the details of events that God is about to do and only He knows what He is about to do, so therefore only He can tell His messengers; so those who don’t hear from God, their messages will not be accurate.

However Jesus said I give you the keys of the kingdom.

“I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Matthew 16:19 

The keys to the kingdom of heaven are God’s Words (John 1:12; 17:3). Messiah Himself points that the key referred to here, is the key of knowledge, meaning, this is understanding how to enter the kingdom (Luke 11:52). The words of Jesus/Yeshua are spirit and life to all who receive them (John 6:63).

It is the words of Jesus/ Yeshua that bring eternal life (John 6:68). And they are the keys to the new-birth experience (1 Peter 1:23). And remembering Amos 3:7 Jer.33:3 and  Isaiah 42:9 “Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.”

But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. For he will not speak on his own authority, but will speak whatever he hears, and will tell you what is to come.

Here we have confirmed that we will be shown whatever we need to know before the time.

These keys are spiritual keys to a spiritual kingdom and that kingdom is also within us.

Light is a symbol of truth and revelation of divine origin, so it follows that the keys to the kingdom are keys of light.

They speak of revelation and mysteries that are to be unlocked.

Let’s make sure that the locks on our hearts are accessible for the key of light and we are ready for Him to open to us the revelation of The Truth of His Incomparable and Unconditional Love…

Conclusion in Part 2

Rest assured, our Heavenly Father has all things in His control and in His timing for He has said…

From the beginning I revealed the end. From long ago I told you things that had not yet happened, saying, “My plan will stand, and I’ll do everything I intended to do.”

Shalom shalom!

Apocalypse of the Trump – Part 3- The Sound Of The Neshamah?

In Part 2 we saw where there was a further

apocalypse/revealing,

in

this trump,

this shofar,

because each of the letters in the Hebrew Alef-bet, also represent numbers.

Part 3 concludes The Apocalypse Of The Trump with the sound of the Neshama, (Neshamah/Neshimah), The Breath of God.

 neshama (נְשָׁמָה nəšâmâh – Hebrew from the root nšm or breath).

Neshemah chayyim – breath of life.

Chayyim/Chaim is plural (literally lives/lifes, not life) Elohim is also plural.

The breath of our spirit and soul is combined with the wind, or breath that comes out from our inner selves. That wind or breath is then released out from our bodies.

In reality it is in part, the expelling of the breath of God’s life(chaim) in us. This same breath of God that was breathed into Adam.

God breathed lives/chaim/Chayyim into Adam.

For us as believers, our born again spirit, is further infused by the Ruach/Spirit of God.

The life-force is not a result of organic material, it is from God. The scripture says that spirit returns to Him when it leaves these physical bodies.

Following this thought…… Is it His indwelling Ruach/Spirit/Breath/Life/Chaim, that flows out through us and transferring along the shofar as it it blown/sounded; then it ascends to the realms of the heavens? The chaim, the lifes of God, issuing forth as Ruach/Spirit into the Shamayim/heavens.

Let’s look a little further…

As His presence was there at Sinai, at the Akedah/the binding of Isaac, and as the 2 shofars were ready to step in at the sacrifice and intervene/save/resurrect, the son.

That since God could raise him from the dead to perform his promises, he would sacrifice him to obey God’s command. Heb. 11:9

This faith grew from what God had done, in giving him Isaac from his own dead body, and Sarah’s dead womb.

The Covenant mandate was met; and God Who was the bodily fulfillment of the promise, eventually came. God will provide HIMSELF the Lamb.

He was to become the Lamb and prophetically declared it ahead of time.

Another mystical property of the sounds of the shofar, is the amazing ability to express the inner human neshama in the form of sound. (The shofar is not classed as a musical instrument.) 

Neshimah

Breath: Psalms 150:6

Nun/Noon – Shin/Sheen – Mem – Hey/Heh

Some Sages teach that the sound made by the shofar, IS the sound of the human neshama, the soul itself to which the 5 physical senses are connected.

Hearing is an essential part of the well known Hebrew prayer called the Shema.

Long before Messiahs day, the Israelites recited a daily prayer called the Shema. The prayer comes directly from Deut. 6 and is a way for them to commit themselves to listening to God’s word and obeying it.

Strongs # 8086 shama/shema שְׁמַע Pronounced: shem-ah’

 

Just as there is no single Hebrew word meaning obey, there also is no specific English word for shema. While this Hebrew verb translates as, hear or listen, it means much more than just hearing or listening. It is an excellent example of the mindset difference between Hebrew, which stresses physical action and Greek and Western culture that stresses mental activity.

SHEMA: means HEAR and OBEY or LISTEN and DO.

In Mark 4:9, Jesus/Yeshua said, he who has ears to hear let him hear. And this would have included the understanding of action the same as believe it is an active participation not a mental assent or agreement. If we do not act on what we believe and hear we are not accomplishing what is required of us as believers.

Be a doer not a hearer only!

The individual who has ears to hear is the one who diligently attends to the words of Messiah, that he may ponder and OBEY them. Many heard Him out of curiosity, that they might bear something new, not that they might lay to heart the things which they heard, and endeavor to practice them in their lives.

This indeed is the true meaning of faith without works being dead and James 2:18 Yea, a man will say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith apart from thy works, and I by my works will show thee my faith.

Good works are obeying and doing. The action of doing the gospel message.

Blowing the shofar is possibly the raw sound of the neshama.

The bend of the shofar is said to be the transition between this world and the next; like a bridge, a joining, a vav, a portal, a dalet, a door; Jesus/Yeshua of course is THE door!

It is an entering in, through the veil. It’s a point of access into the heavenly places, joining the realm of His throne, to where we are situated, by the power of His Ruach flowing through us. Which is the voice/the kol of God.

https://www.minimannamoments.com/the-voice-kol

Is the shofar the depth of, or somehow at the root of speech with its’ connection to the voice of God?

Teshuvah, means to go back, to return.

Look behold return to the cross!

Teshuvah is a compound word consisting of the Hebrew Tashan, meaning Return, and Hey, the last letter of the JHVH/YHWH name for God, also represents the Shekinah/Glory, or manifest presence of God. Thus, Teshuvah is a time to return to the presence of God.

So, in a way, are we (spiritually), going back to the moment of creation, to go back into the womb of eternity, to the moment of conception when everything began?

Do we return to our fetal state, our moment of creation; which is why we say we are born again! and in turn experiencing the understanding of CHAIM/lives?

(In Hebrew thinking it is believed that this teshuvah/return is what is meant by memory/zichronot – or remembering as a connecting function of Rosh HaShanah; when the blowing of trumpet/Shofar is sounded. The time of remembering when the Voice of God boomed out from Sinai’s summit.

Meaning of zichronot briefly explained:

There are 3 Basic Prayers said during Rosh HaShanah: Malchuyot, Zichronot, Shofarot. Celebrating God as the incomparable King of The Universe.

These thoughts are inspired by the letters shin, fey/fay, and resh/reysh.

 The goal here, is to enjoy the silence that follows the shofar blast. To forget everything that is not urgently pressing for our immediate attention and to echo and reverberate with the vibrating air of the Shin, fey, resh/reysh which spells shofar. 

Sh f r, the ram’s horn, is a figure of speech for the sound, however is it more than air and breath?

It’s the shofar blower’s own vibrations, those buzzing lips that make the sound.

Is there anything else contained in the sound and in the letters that make up the word for shofar?

Other words with the same letters;

Shin/sheen, pey/pay/fey/fay, resh/reysh are:

shafar שָׁפַר  – to be good, pleasing
shiper שִׁפֵּר – to improve, to beautify
hishtaper הִשְׁתַפֵּר – to become better
shefer שֶׁפֶר – beauty 

This suggests the sound of the shofar may be pleasing to our ears, and have the effect of motivating self-improvement and change. Also that the echoes of the shofar uncover beauty throughout this coming year.
Truly the sounds of the shofar are unsettling and knock things out of kilter, and when placed in a different order, spell other words and different meanings.

Shin, resh, fay –sin, resh, fay or
Saraph שָֹרַף – a troublesome thought, a fiery serpent or angel
Sereipha שְֹרֵפָה – burning, fire, conflagration

Resh, shin, fay
Resheph רֶשֶׁף  – flame, spark, fever

Here we could say that the vibrations of the shofar stir up troublesome thoughts and the friction becomes fire. Our souls are burned by feverish minds and hot headed actions. However, the flames can also have a purifying effect too and burn away that which holds us down, the sin that so easily besets us and becomes a burden.

What happens next?
Rearrange the letters and we get more words:

What’s left after the fire? Is there a new spark bringing illumination to a new angle/aspect of our lives?

Resh, fay, shin
Rephesh רֶפֶשׁ  – mud, dirt, mire
Raphash רָפַשׁ – to trample, to pollute

Pay, shin, resh
Pashar פָּשַׁר – to melt, to be lukewarm

We must also see that the shofar itself is of this world and that the horn came from an animal. It’s not an instrument made in heaven.
In one way we are hearing our own human effort. While in this world we all get muddy, because our way of life tramples on beings around us whether we are aware of it or not.
This gives rise to the question we should regularly ask ourselves. Are we only lukewarm in our desire to change?

Turning the same letters around one last time gives us hope:
Pay, shin, resh
Pisher פִּשֵׁר – to compromise, arbitrate
Pesher פֵּשֶׁר – interpretation, solution

Just as the vibrations of the shofars sounds are unsettling, let us pray that they may reveal to us new perspectives and understanding that will lead to solutions for balance in our spiritual walk embracing only Godly, healthy compromise, which will always bring us full circle back to shefer, beauty and goodness.

So it seems, shofarot may be connected to malchuyot biblically, (blowing of the shofar as part of the coronation at 1 Kings 1:34, 39, 41) even if it isn’t necessarily connected with Rosh Hashanah in the biblical text.

Malchuyot is a means to reaffirm the coronation of The Lord as King of the Universe, on the day that commemorates the beginning, the world’s creation where participants try to capture something of the awe-inspiring nature of the Lord God.

As we teshuvah, do we in some way return to the moment when the memories or seeds, of the parents are given to us?

This same Hebrew concept postulates that the sound heard by Adam HaRishon/the first human, on wakening from his creation, was the sound of a shofar. The sound made by his neshama as it entered him; that is, the presence of the spirit of God flowing into Him.

Was Hearing the 1st of the 5 physical senses activated in Adam?

When we wake someone it’s by sound, by speaking their name or the sound of an alarm clock.

The name Adam originated from the Hebrew word, אָדָם . Pronounced: aw-dawm, which means human, as a species, male and female. The Scriptures use this literal meaning for Adam, meaning simply humans. 

These thoughts suggests that the shofar can also take us back to the very moment when our neshama entered us. 

If indeed the sound of the shofar is the voice of God, why wouldn’t it be able to do so?

neshaMah

nun shin mem hey

 נֶשַׁמַה 

(Strong’s #5397) means: breath and is sometimes used in place of nephesh or rûach, it is derived from: נָשַׁם nâsham meaning: to pant or blow away (Strong’s #5395).

Nefesh, neshama and ruach are Hebrew words for soul… The first is the air, as it is still in the trumpet blower’s cheeks; and this corresponds to the neshamah.

The soul, or neshamah, is the self, the I, that inhabits the body and acts through it. It is believed that everything has a Soul, not just human beings, but every created entity has one also.

Creatures have a voice too.

The understanding is that animals also have souls, as do plants and even inanimate objects;

every blade of grass has a soul, and every grain of sand as part of creation as a whole, has the breath of God’s life in it.

The diagram shows a little of how it is viewed by some.

These concepts are unfamiliar to our western mindset.

We have also limited ourselves by the restrictions of translated texts, which fogs the pictures contained within the Hebrew alef-bet. However, it is revealed to those willing to dig into the very roots of the original language of the God of creation; whose very act of speaking brought forth all that is.

This same conceptual thinking, will help us to understand why a ram was found at the very moment of sacrifice.

There is even an understanding among some scholars that Isaac expired and was resurrected?!

What is certain is at that precise moment a shofar became available. Two rams horns to be exact.

In Hebrew thought:
Just as earthly kings have horns and shofarot blown to celebrate the anniversary of their coronation, so The Lord wants the shofar blown on the anniversary of the Creation- when there came to be a world that God could rule over, as it is said:
In the same way as earthly kings have horns and shofarot blown to announce their decrees – and only after this warning actually enforce the decree, so The Lord wants the shofar blown to announce the beginning of the 10 Days of Return, when all are commanded to turn their lives around.
Just as the shofar blew when The Lord gave the Torah at Mount Sinai, so it blows to remind us each year to do as our forebears said at Sinai.
Just as Yehezekel (Ezekiel) compared the words of the Prophets, calling for the people to change their ways, to a shofar, so we must know that those who hear the shofar and do not take warning and change their lives will be responsible for their own destruction, as it is said: Because the shofar was blown as a war-alarm when the Temple was destroyed, it should remind us of the destruction of the Temple, the disaster that we brought upon ourselves, and thus should warn us to abandon our misdeeds in order to avert disaster, as it is said:
Because The Lord used a ram as a substitute sacrifice for Isaac, the ram’s horn should remind us how Isaac and Abraham were prepared to give up all their hopes and dreams for The Lord’s sake. Bereshit (Genesis) 22.
Since the blowing of a horn causes cities to tremble, so the shofar will make us tremble and fear our Creator, as it is said: Since the shofar will be blown on the great day of the Lord.
Since the shofar will be blown when the tempest-tossed of The Lord ’s people are gathered in harmony to the Land of Israel, we should hear the shofar to stir our longings for that day, as it is said: (Yeshayahu) Isaiah18:3
This reminds us of:
(Matityahu) Matthew 24:29-31
Since the shofar will be blown when Mashiach revives the dead, we hear the shofar in order to revive our faith in that supernatural transformation, the final victory of life and freedom over death, the ultimate oppressor, as it is said: and of another event at Yom Teruah  (Yehezekel) Ezekiel 37:1-14

Another use of the shofar is to bring about the will of The Lord. This instrument is capable of breaking down the greatest of barriers: (Yehoshua) Joshua 6:4-9
The shofar is used to gather the people: (Shoftim) Judges 3:27
The shofar is capable of bringing fear to the heart of even the most hardened man: (Shoftim) Judges 7:16 And he divided the 300  [into] 3 companies,
The shofar can be used to halt actions that are not helpful: (2 Shmuel) Samuel 2:28

The shofar is used to announce the new moon and the Jubilee year.

The Torah provides for the blast of the shofar on Yom Kipppur to mark the start of yovel, Lev. 25:9

In this next verse we see, again, that the shofar is used to indicate the presence of The Lord: (2 Shmuel) Samuel 6:15
The shofar is also used to alert us and to call us to battle against our enemies: Ezra-Nechemiah 4:18

The shofar is used to call all of The Lord’s people to repentance on Yom Teruah Rosh HaShanah Tehillim  Ps.81:3
As a call to return in repentance before The Lord, the shofar has no equal: Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 58:1

 

There are 4 different sounds associated with the blowing of the shofar during the Yom Teruah service:

 

These sounds are interpreted as follows:

TEKIAH – ‫תקיעה

The tekiah is a long blast.

A pure unbroken sound that calls man to search his heart/lev, turn from his wrong ways, and to seek forgiveness through repentance.

In an: It is finished! Proclamation of Gods’ sovereignty, hailing Him as ruler of the world. We, like the heralds trumpets, announce that the authority of the King has come; and at the Name of the Messiah, every knee shall bow.

The object of Yom Teruah/Rosh HaShana is to crown The Lord as our King. Tekiah, the long, straight shofar blast, is the sound of the King’s coronation. In the Garden of Eden/Gan Eden, Adam’s first act was to proclaim God as King; and now, the shofar proclaims to ourselves and to the world: God is our King.

We set our values straight and return to the reality, of God as the One Who runs the world; guiding history, moving mountains, and caring for each and every human being individually and personally.

SHEBARIM – ‫שברים

A broken, staccato, trembling sound. It  typifies the sorrow that comes to man when he realizes his misconduct and desires to change his ways. The shebarim or shevarim is 3 shorter blasts. It is said that Shebarim/Shevarim is the sobbing cry of a Hebrew heart yearning to connect, to grow, to achieve.

TERUAH – ‫תרועה

A wave-like sound of alarm calling upon man to stand by the banner of Ha shem. The teruah is 10 (some say 9) very quick short blasts. The Teruah sound resembles an alarm clock, waking us from our spiritual slumber. Num. 10 (Also in 2Chron., Jer., Joel and Zeph.)

This shofar sound brings clarity, alertness, and focus, to fix what’s broken, open our eyes.

TEKIAH GEDOLAH .  גדולה ‫תקיעה

The prolonged, unbroken sound typifying a final appeal to sincere repentance and atonement. This note concludes each set of blowing during the Rosh HaShanah ceremony. It has been described it as a sign of divine withdrawal, based on the verse: “When the Shofar sounds long, they [the people] shall come up to the mountain…” (Shemot 19:13).

Please click link below to hear the sounds described above: Shofar begins at 00:11 mark.

It has been said that the tekiah blast represents joy, whereas the blasts of the shebarim/shevarim and teruah represent pain and affliction.

Short Hebrew statement spoken as a prayer:

Baruch ata Adonai Eloheinu melech ha-olam, asher kidishanu bemitzvotav vetzivanu lazman hazeh.
Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, Who has kept us alive, sustained us, and brought us to this season.

When we blow the Shofar we are accepting the Kingship of the Master of the World.

‫היום הרת עולם

Hayom harat olam

This day is the birthday of the world !

 

Why is Rosh HaSahanah called the birth-day of the world?

 

Hebrew texts tell us that this life is a corridor to the next life.

Death is a birth to a new existence.

 

This is in line with the meaning of chaim meaning lifes, not just one life, as the IM of chaim means a plural, more than one life.

Just as emergence from the womb/racham constitutes physical birth, and detachment from that body is the birth of the soul into the physical realm of earth. In the same way as the 8 or 9 months in the womb is the time period preceding the earthly birth, the 70 or 80 years on earth are the preparation or gestation period preceding Birth into the heavenly realm.

It could be said that Rosh HaShananah, is the birth canal of the new year!

 

It is very significant that a shofar with its narrow mouthpiece and wider opening somewhat resembles a birth canal?

In fact, the Bible mentions a great woman with a name of the same etymology/meaning: Shifrah. She was one of 2 named out of the many midwives of the ancient Hebrews who left Egypt.

Apparently the name Shifra comes from a Hebrew root word meaning: the capacity to make something better, or to improve its quality.

And that is what she did: In keeping with this characteristic, and contrary to Pharaoh’s orders, Shifrah ensured that the babies would emerge healthy and viable, then swaddled and massaged them to foster their strength and beauty.

 

The shofar is repleat with birth imagery:

It can be viewed as the birth canal, the air rushing through it to create a plaintive cry, is the breath of life, and the sound that we hear recalls the cries of labor.

Traditionally, we hear 100 blasts of the shofar during Rosh Hashanah. It has been said that the first 99 are the cries of a woman in labor, and the final one, equal to the tekiah gedolah, is the responding cry of the newborn child.

This day is the birthday of the world, or more accurately, this day is the pregnancy of the world.

On Rosh HaShanah our world becomes pregnant with Gods’ presence, and in a way He is pregnant with us, (carrying us).

It is a time of mutual awareness and understanding. It is the time when we enter the inner world, the world of the womb, in order to be reborn into change.

God intervened in the wombs of the matriarchs Sarah, Rachel, and Hannah and made them pregnant. Their stories are punctuated by an act of divine intervention:

God remembers [ז-כ-ר] or takes note [פ-ק-ד] of them; connecting the mysterious name of the day, called a memorial of trumpet blasts [זכרון תרועה; zikhron teruah] (Lev. 23:24),

to God’s remembering these women:

שָׂרָה saw-raw’. Sarah. Gen. 21:1

חַנָּה khan-naw’. Channah. 1 Sam. 1:19

רָחֵל  RAY-chel. Rachel. Gen. 30:22

On Rosh HaShanah, the stories of Sarah, Hannah, and Rachel are read to remind the listeners of the hope for new life.

In the same way He added the Heh/Hey into Abram and Sarai’s physical names.

Heh or Hey means: behold! look!

There is an understanding that Sarah, the mother of the Jewish people, herself was born on this day.

The story of the Akedah, the binding of Isaac, is also read. It describes the moment when Isaac is offered up as a sacrifice by his father Abraham, to let us know that this time of year also signals radical change, a part of us, the self life in enmity with God must die, in order to be reborn into the power of the resurrected life for another year.

We are the ones who inscribe ourselves for life or death by living our lives throughout the year the way we do. We are the ones who give birth to ourselves.

In the next world our birth and the nature of our experience will reflect the choices we, and we alone, made.

In this life we were born into circumstances beyond our control, but in the next life we will emerge from the womb/racham of circumstances we shaped with our daily life choices and actions.

If we are true to our soul here, then our soul will experience a happy birth in the next world. If we succumb to the low impulses of the material body, will we be confused and dismayed when we emerge into the wide space of eternity?

It is true to say that the shofar sounds like a child wailing.

Already mentioned is that Shofar is a Hebrew word that comes from a root meaning BEAUTY.

שָׁפַר

means: to beautify, alluding to the beautification of our ways as we turn to God in teshuvah. In this month (i.e., the seventh month of Tishrei) you shall amend (shapperu) your deeds.

Doing teshuva means getting to the root of the problem and deepening our awareness of God.

The Inner Voice

שׁוֹפָר

Rosh HaShanah is possibly linked to the word shofar to the verse:

Iyov (Job) 26:13 “By His breath the Shamayim/Heavens are spread (shifra).”

This verse refers to the dispersing of the clouds to reveal/apocalypse of the clear blue sky.

That which was clouded over and concealed becomes revealed.

The root of the word shifra also means to beautify,

and true beauty is to see the essence of something, the purpose for which it was created.

Shifra is also the root of the word shofar.

שׁוֹפָר

handsome; trumpet; that does good,

shiphrah, brightness, Ex. 1:15 

שִׁפְרָה

The 11th century Jewish commentary on the passage from Exodus identifies Shiphrah with Jochebed, the mother of Moses, and Puah with Miriam, Moses’ sister, making the 2 midwives mother and daughter respectively. 

As a countermeasure, Pharaoh sent for the midwives named Shifra and Puah, and commanded them to kill every baby boy that was born. 3. The midwives feared God and did not obey. 

Shifra/Shiphrah – from the Hebrew meaning: to beautify or to be beautiful, or translates as improvement, a reference to the way that Yocheved would improve the newborns by cleaning them and straightening their limbs. Puah, means cooing, a reference to how Miriam would make cooing sounds to the babies which soothed them.

The fact is, that all language needs a voice, an utterance, and that requires sound and frequency as its carrier, by which it is expressed. Another language sounds completely foreign and unintelligible to one who cannot speak it, just a jumble of sounds. However to the one who knows that language, it makes perfect sense. This is true of animals, birds and sea creatures, who communicate in their own way and combination of sounds. So why would we not think the sound of the shofar could communicate something to the listener as expelled by the blower?

 Each has its nuances and subtleties, that when we understand them, adds a richness to the Word of God and to the overall meaning of the Appointed Time(s) of the Lord.

The shofar gives us a clarity to see beyond the clouds, to see to the blue sky beyond. It is this clarity that results in fear and trembling:

 

Amos 3:6 “Can the shofar be sounded in the city and the people not tremble?”

 

The shofar is said to be the midwife of the new year. Into its piercing cry, we squeeze all our heartfelt prayers, all our tears. Our whole being resonates with its call until it reaches the very beginning, the cosmic womb and there it touches a kind of switch as the Divine Presence shifts from the strict judgment of Yom ha Din (day of judgment) to the compassion of Rachamim/Mercies.

Shafir in Hebrew means fine, but mey shafir means the amniotic fluid that surrounds the fetus (ubbar) in the womb. (Think mem and waters and the paleo pictograph.)

‫שופר : In the original sense of incising

From the root שפר which means: to be pleasing, be beautiful, be fair, be comely, be bright, glisten, to be beautiful, to improve and to develop.

שפור – Shipur also means: to elevate to a new level,

Messianic Connections

Notice in the following verses that Gabriel is sent in the 6th month of Elul. It’s possible that this is Elul 29 and that Miryam will be remembered on Rosh HaShana, the 1st day of the seventh month:

Luqas/Luke 1:26 And in the 6th month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.
28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Yeshua.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the 6th month with her, who was called barren.
Gen. 22:8 is another example of His goodness, in the ascent of Abraham and Isaac up Mt. Moriah vrs, 13-14

So not only in the paleo letters but also in the numbers does each one represent and tell the good news of the gospel message of redemption and salvation. And it is also declared in the sound of the shofar every time it is blown as representing the voice of God announcing His presence and His whole plan of redemption and restoration and reconciliation, being released into the air waves with a

breath…. 

the Shin/sheen, sh from shaddai

the pey of the mouth and

the reysh from the head of the person…

blowing – declaring – the end from the beginning…

the alef to the tav

Yeshua/Jesus our Messiah typified in the shofar the rams horn of the sacricifial offering of the son.

The WORD is living and breathing and should be viewed as life not as a story.

We walk in the footsteps of the Hebrews, the meaning of their name: those who have crossed over and their life/chaim walk is cyclical.

It is an annual rehearsal for a forthcoming marriage and likewise our lives/chaim are to be as well. 

By blowing the shofar, we remember the faith of the Matriarchs/Patriarchs and our own capacity for self-sacrifice.

Blowing the shofar declares that the LORD God is the King of the universe, as it says in Psalm 98:6,

“With trumpets and the sound of the shofar (וְקוֹל שׁוֹפָר), shout for joy before the King ADONAI (הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהוָה).”

The Day of Trumpets truly is a rehearsal and celebration of that soon coming day of the Messiah’s return from heaven at the sounding of the great SHOFAR trumpet!

From Part 2…

Salpini is the Greek word for the trumpet

Saino is also associated with another primary Greek root verb, which is seio, meaning to rock or vibrate to and fro, to cause to tremble, or to cause to shake or quake. One of the important uses of this verb in the New Testament includes: Matt. 27:51 Just then the temple curtain was torn in two, from top to bottom!

 

The silver trumpets referred to in part 1

Silver – Kesef – כסף

Kesaph Strongs #3702 כְּסַף    
Phonetic Spelling: (kes-af’)

KAF SAMECH PEI

The Hebrew word for silver can be spelled: Kesaph/kasaph/kessef/kesef.

KAF = lines to follow the pattern and instructions, order, conduct, prescribe, establish, uprightness.

SAMECH = support, structure, the vine, the source, life, code, ideal, model, example,

PEI = open, opening, mouth, declaration-breath.

Meaning: The pattern – lines to follow,the Kodesh instructions of God our ALAHIM;

they are His order of conduct to teach uprightness, the source of our life support, the structure that trains us, according to the model – the ideal; our example is the One who declared it. God/YHVH, who is our deliverer, redeemer and our soon returning King, Messiah Jesus/Yeshua.

The cleansing of the earthly temple on the Day of Atonement was only a rehearsal of that Great Day of Atonement when Elohim will cleanse the earth of all sin. 

This great Judgment Day will see all sin eradicated and HaSatan/Adversary judged and bound.

And lastly, the 1st and 8th days of the Festival of Booths (or Tabernacles) are sacred references, depicting the kingdom age and

rehearsing when the Messiah will tabernacle with His BRIDE after He has wiped sin from all the earth.

Finally

God is interested in the relationship HE has with the user and not the shofar itself.

The shofars have a great purpose.  They were given to keep God’s children in the true memory and worship of Him, by keeping us constantly in the understanding of His great plan of redemption. The annual appointed days are all about the Messiah. 

May this be our prayer today:

we want to be like a shofar in the hand of God, totally emptied out on the inside, emptied of ourselves and our ways of being and doing. We desire to be filled with His Ruach HaKodesh in mind and spirit giving Him the freedom to flow through us and entering in to the ears of the hearers.

May the sounds of the song of our lifes/chaim be music to His hearing.

Shalom shalom!

Please don’t leave this page until you have Made that life-saving decision – time is running out. Don’t miss the day of your visitation!

The Shofars Voice/Kol is Calling for you today!

This life is NOT all there is!

You are not here by chance!

SAY THE FOLLOWING FROM YOUR HEART RIGHT NOW…Don’t put it off one more moment…

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.

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.

You are now Born Again by the Holy Spirit of the Living God and you are part of the ever growing family of believers. You will never be the same again!
