Hebrew Words: Seed, Son, Remember, and Covenant
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 27 April 2024: In this Hebrew study we will learn four Hebrew words for “seed”, “son”, “to remember”, and “covenant” and how they relate to each other. In the following, we would like to posit another way to look at these Hebrew words, specifically in reference to the Covenant the Eternal made with the patriarch Avraham. We will begin with the Hebrew word for “seed”: Zera. Read more.
Does the Eternal Creator Change His Mind, For He Changes not?

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 19 April 2024: Does the Eternal Creator change His mind, or does He relent or repent for what He has done, and before whom would He repent? The question is not whether He can, for He is not subjected to any limitation, but rather: Does His essence that transcends time and space change what He has already spoken? Mitigation, appeasement, and pardon of sins are often mistaken for forgiveness. The misunderstanding becomes even more evident when terms such as “relented” and “repented” appear in the translations. According to the translations of Exo 32:14, it appears to the reader that … Read more.
The Two State Solution: The State of Israel vs the State of the Diaspora.

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 12 April 2024: It was well known that the Babylonian exile would last until seventy years were completed (Jer 25:12; 2Ch 36:21). But for how long was the Roman exile intended to last? The Roman exiled ended on 14 May 1948 at the moment the first prime minister of Israel, Ben Gurion, announced that Medinat Israel (the State of Israel) had been established. A nation was born in one day—the State of Israel—in fulfillment of the prophecy in Isaiah! The next day, however, the Arab nations invaded the Land with the sole purpose of pushing the Jews from the river (the Jordan) into the sea (the Mediterranean). At that crucial moment for the State of Israel, David Ben Gurion, a secular Jew, and Jacob Blaustein, the leader of the American Jewry, … Read more.
Malki-Tsedek Who Forfeited the Priesthood—Part 2
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 8 April 2024: Who is the author of the Letter to the Hebrews? According to the Roman Catholic tradition, Apostle Shaul (Paul) is the assumed author of the Hebrews. The ambiguity concerning the authorship of Hebrews comes from the fact that the author of Hebrews has not claimed any authorship. Hence, the Letter to the Hebrews is an anonymous work with its author unknown. In contrast, Shaul claims the authorship of his other letters, as this is evident from their epilogues, the style of his writing, and the subject of this epistle to the Hebrews, which is primarily focused on the Temple and priestly service. Nevertheless, the Church has attributed this letter to Shaul. How is the authorship of the Hebrews related to Malki-Tsedek who forfeited his priesthood? Read more.
Bible Code: Yeshua Cut Off and Covenanted—Part 3
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 27 March 2024: Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 31 March 2024: In the Jewish expectations, Melech haMashiach (“the Anointed King”, this is the Messiah) will arise and restore the Davidic dynasty to its former glory. He will build the Temple and gather the exile of Israel that still live in foreign lands. Then, all the laws of the Torah will be reinstated in the Land as they were before, the sacrifices will be offered again in the Temple (see Ezekiel 40-49) the Anointed King will build, and the Sabbatical and the Jubilee years will be reckoned as outlined in the Torah. Anyone who does not believe in Melech haMashiach or does not await his coming, denies not only the prophets, who foresaw his coming, but the Torah and Mosheh. In Part 1 of the series, … Read more.
How the Khazars Understood the True Purim
The lost Purim of Israel: the traditional Brazilian fiesta and “Jewish Halloween”. But where is the real Purim?
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 27 March 2024: Purim for this Biblical year is concluded in the shadow of the ongoing war of Israel against the evil Hamas–the new Haman today. Every year, we remind the readers to recall the true story of the holiday of Purim. Purim is not among the established holidays of the Creator in Leviticus 23. Nevertheless, it has its own place in the history of Israel to teach us a lesson. What lesson? The Sages keep the old tradition that the evil decree in the Purim story came because the Jews in Persia attended the feast King Achashverosh made to all the people that were present in the province of Shushan in celebration of what the king believed was the failure of the prophecy that the Jews would return to the Land of Israel and help rebuild the Temple. The Babylonian Talmud also states: “Anyone who dwells in the Land of Israel is like one who has God, and anyone who dwells outside the Land is like one who has no God”. It was known that the Babylonian Exile would last for seventy years, according to the prophecy in Jeremiah. But how many of the Jews returned to the homeland? The Roman exiled ended in 1948 at the moment the first prime minister of Israel, Ben Gurion, announced the establishment of the State of Israel. But how many of the world Jewry returned to the Land? And this is the lesson the King of the Khazars taught a rabbi. Read more.
Bible Code: Yeshua Cut Off and Covenanted—Part 2
Hebrew Scroll. A translation is not the words of God but of man.
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 24 March 2024: A controversial translation in Psalm 22, the psalm of David, reads “they pierced” as opposed to what the Hebrew text says: “like a lion”. Which of these two translations is correct, for they seem to contradict each other: “like a lion” (JPS), alluding to the anguish of the psalmist, or “they pierced” (KJV), alluding to a crucifixion scene which forces a strong messianic interpretation upon the psalm? Although most of the early Jewish commentators have already treated the controversy of “like a lion” vs “they pierced” in Psalm 22 exhaustively, there is some room left for our comments, especially in the light of the Bible code, which we studied in the article “Bible code: Yeshua cut off and covenanted”. Here, we will try to show that the question of “like a lion” or “they pierced” is far from being a trivial issue and hope to provide a more complex answer, as we intend. This work also has a second object: to explain another Bible code (in Psalm 22) closely related to the one we discussed in the foresaid article. Read more.
Bible Code: “Yeshua Cut Off and Covenanted”
The Bible code found in Exodus 38: Yeshua cut off and covenanted for the people.
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 17 March 2024: What is the Bible code? Bible codes are hidden messages uncovered by using Equidistant Letter Sequences (ELS) within the text. In Hebrew, the Bible code is hachurak ot shalav or the latticework of the equidistant-letter sequence. Simply put, the Bible code is a word or few words, embedded by the Supernal Author into the Hebrew text of the Tanak, which when read in an equidistant-letter sequence gives a hidden message. It is the object of this work to seek the interpretation of the Bible code concerning a person named “Yeshua” as found in Exodus 38:24. This work has also a second object: to explain a certain mistranslation in Psalm 22 which is not correctly explained by the Christian commentators yet related to the Bible code. Read more.
Test and Trials You Are Not Guaranteed to Pass
Rembrandt: Avraham sacrifices Yitschak (Hermitage). Did the father pass the test?
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 10 March 2024: It seems that what we call natural disasters, such as wildfires, floods, etc., are not “acts of God” in tests and trials but are simply unavoidable consequences of the physical world which are vital for the regeneration of the nature. These events are seen as the way the physical world continues its existence as a whole by cleansing and repairing itself. Yet, it is said, “The Eternal has done whatever pleased Him” (Psa 135:6). Everything He does, He does as a result of His will with no one to interfere much less to take over. In the following, we would like to posit another way to look at the tests and trials we go through, specifically in reference to the most recent events in Israel. We will explore the matter of tests and trials in the context of the story of some of the greatest men in the Scripture. Read more.
Keruvim in the Most Inaccessible Place on the Earth

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 8 March 2024: If the Second Commandment of the Covenant has explicitly forbidden the making of anything that is like a creature on earth or in heaven, why is the making of the keruvim that are on the lid of the Ark of the Covenant exempt from this? This question becomes even stronger when we bear in mind that King Shlomoh made huge keruvim in the Temple he built for the Eternal. These issues call aloud for an explanation, for it is incomprehensible that the Eternal has forbidden the making of idols in one place, and in another, commanded such. Read more.
Who Are the “Palestinians”?
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 22 February 2024: How does the Google Ngram Viewer answer the question: Who are the people who call themselves today “Palestinians? Who are the people, who live in the land on both sides of the Jordan River, and where did they come from? And where did the Edomites (the brothers of the Israelites, who lived on the eastern side of the Jordan before them) go? Another question that is almost forced upon us is: Who are the people today, who call themselves “Palestinians”, and where did they come from, for we find no such ancient people in the annals? The Google Ngram may provide the answer.
The Google Ngram Viewer and the “Palestinians”.
The Google Ngram Viewer or Google Books Ngram Viewer is an online search engine that charts the frequencies of any set of words found in printed sources published between 1500 and 2019 in English, Chinese, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Russian, and Spanish. When a word phrase such as “Palestinians” is entered into the Google Ngram Viewer, it can be seen that “Palestinians” began appearing only after WWI when the British Mandate over the Middle East territories of the former Ottoman Empire was established. Back then all people living in the British Mandate were called “Palestinians”: Arabs, Jews, Bedouins alike. “Palestinian people”, as a political term, appears in Google Ngram Viewer with its peak after the Yom Kippur War in 1973, when the Soviets created it in retaliation of the humiliating defeat of their proxies in the war.
So, how did the tiny sliver of land the Eternal gave to His people become “Palestina” and then “Palestine”, and who are the people called “Palestinians”?

The Torah gives answers to all questions sought earnestly. It points to them for those who desire to learn on a deeper level of understanding.
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 18 February 2024: We live in a world timed between the revelation of the Eternal at Sinai and giving the Covenant and the revelation of Melech ha-Mashiach (King Messiah) at the end of the sixth millennium. In Judaism, the Resurrection of the Dead and the Messianic Era in the seventh millennium are considered the culmination and fulfillment of Creation with the revelation of the light of the Eternal in this material world. And if we are in the culmination of the fulfillment of the Eternal’s plan, we need to heed the following. Read more.
Hebrew Word: Mazal Tov
At the fork of the road, Mazal Tov!
Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 5 February 2024: The word mazal is often translated as “luck” or “fortune” as in the phrase mazal tov or mazel tov with the meaning of “good luck” or “good fortune”. As such, mazal tov is similar in usage to the word “Congratulations!” According to this translation, the phrase mazal tov or mazel tov is seen as good luck, something that happens by chance. But is this the intention of the phrase? For there is no such a thing as good or bad luck in the Hebrew Scripture, for there is no Hebrew word for luck. Nothing happens by accident or coincidence. The literal translation of the word mazal means a constellation of stars, also planets. This word appears in the Hebrew Scripture as mazzalah, which means a constellation, as it is found only in … Read more.
