Time of Reckoning Has Come

 “Who created the universe is a matter of knowledge. Why was it created is a matter of faith. God is knowable through Torah and Mashiach”. Navah

Year 5990!

Are we due for the arrival of the Messiah? According to the reckoning of time of this ministry, this is year 5990 from Creation, which began with Rosh HaShanah (Head of the Year) at the sunset of the 30th day of March 2025 (Gregorian calendar). May we merit seeing the coming of our Mashiach speedily in our days!

Set-apart to the Eternal!

“Set-apart to the Eternal!” The High Priest’s head-plate.


“From the Forest Itself Comes the Handle of the Axe”

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 25 June 2025: On 24 June 2025, Operation “Rising Lion” came to an abrupt stop, from a friend; the enemy is severely wounded but still alive. The prophecy of Numbers 23:34 was halted, and Ezekiel 38 and 39 are still an open prophecy to read. He who has created the enemy against Yerushalayim, is also the One who has created its destroyer.

If YHVH does not build the house, its builders have labored in vain. If YHVH does not guard the city, the watchman has stayed awake in vain. (Psa 127:1)

Yerushalayim was invincible but not because of the prowess of IDF but because of the might of the Magnified One of Israel its protector. Good and evil are laid out for everyone to see.

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 26 June 2025: The whole subject of speaking evil in the Torah is extremely confusing, when we look at it only in the narrow context of a single story, even though well narrated. The reason why we find this important to emphasize in the very opening of our study will be made clear further on. In the following, it remains for us to explain the necessity of addressing the subject of speaking evil, which arises from the fact that there are several Scriptural passages in which it appears. It becomes, therefore, our duty to explain these passages in the overall context, since so many people are confused regarding them, despite that fact that much has been written on the subject. In the following, therefore, we would like to posit another way to look at this phenomenon that persists even today. This matter can best be understood in connection with the story of a Levite, who had been chosen for service in the Tabernacle. Read more.


When the Private Life of a Prophet Like Mosheh Matters

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 15 June 2025: In Numbers 12, we find that Miriam and Aharon spoke against Mosheh concerning the Kushite woman whom he had just married. According to oral tradition, which is not well established, the rabbis have learned that the Kushite woman was Tsippora, the Midianite, the daughter of Yitro, who was called Kushite (Ethiopian) because she was beautiful as the Kushite women were. Although Tsippora was Mosheh’s wife, he had separated from her and refrained from marital relations in order to commune with the Eternal in the Tabernacle on account of purity. Thus far the tradition. The whole subject in Numbers 12 regarding Mosheh’s second marriage of is perplexing, when we look only at what has been revealed to us in the narration. And if we add the Rabbinic tradition to it, it becomes extremely perplexing. Why so? Read More.

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 8 June 2025: In the Book of Numbers, there is a phrase that seemingly is easy to understand, when we look only at what has been revealed to us in the narration. But the Hebrew text tries to tell us something beyond what is immediately obvious. In such a case, we need to resort to the writings of the Rabbis to make better sense of the whole episode. It is, therefore, the object of this work to explain the Hebrew text of Numbers 7 and to interpret its literal translation. This matter can best be understood in connection with Exodus 7, as this will be further explained in the interpretation of the verses. Read more.


Does Torah Discriminate Against Foreigners?

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 26 May 2025: A translation is not the words of God but the words of man. When you read a translation, you read the opinion of the translator. And the surest way of misunderstanding Torah is to read a translation. The greatest confusion comes when a Hebrew word is poorly or even intentionally translated to read what it actually does not. Such an example is the Hebrew word often rendered in foreign translations as “stranger”, “foreigner, “alien”. The choice of these words in the translation of verses such as in Numbers poses a difficulty. We read from King James’ version of the Bible, … Read more.


The Censuses That Raise Questions

Pinechas is spearing the Shimonite Zimri and the Midianite Kozbi. Why was the name of this pagan adulteress even mentioned in the Torah? Because of its meaning: כָּזְבִּי Kozbi means "my lie".

Pinechas is spearing the Shimonite Zimri and the Midianite Kozbi, which led to the plague in which 24,000 perished.

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 25 May 2025: In this introduction to our survey of the Book of Numbers, we would like to clarify an obscure passage in the census of Israel with which this book begins. In the following, we would like to posit to the studious reader another way to look at this, specifically in reference to the censuses of Israel in Numbers 1 and Numbers 26. The matter will become clear to the reader once we understand why the second census shows fewer numbers than that of the first one and what consequence that difference led to. We will now remove all the difficulties we have found in these censuses, as our survey begins. Read more.


Or Ein Sof, “Light of the Infinite One”: The Primordial Light of Creation

Is the natural phenomenon known as "aurora" a reminiscence of the infinite light of the Creation?

Is the natural phenomenon known as “aurora” a reminiscence of the infinite light of the Creation?

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 10 May 2025: From the creation narrative in the first chapter of the Scripture, we learn that the main source of light on earth is the sun. But the sun and the moon (which reflects the sunlight) were not created until the fourth day. Yet there was light that came into existence on the first day of creation. Hence, we are coming to paradox: Light was created on the first day, but the sun was not created until the fourth day. The obvious question that is forced upon us is: How was that possible? This matter of the primordial light can best be understood in connection with what we commenced to explain in the article How God Created the Universe from Nothing, … Read more.


How God Created the Universe from Nothing

Of all natural phenomena none is more wondrous than the primordial light.

Of all natural phenomena none is more wondrous than the primordial light.

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 27 April 2025: Reality is not all that is seen. In the beginning, there was only the Eternal existing in singularity. No one and nothing else existed, and nothing else could exist without compromising His singularity and outside of His singularity. He (Ein Sof) is the absolute existence, and nothing and no one can exist outside of Him. Therefore, in order to create the world, the Creator “contracted” His presence to make space for creation to exist within Himself. Otherwise, nothing can exist outside of Him. So, when the Eternal created the world, He embedded a spark of in every element of His creation which is nothing less than an extension of Himself. Read more.


Can the “New Testament” be Understood Without the Hebrew Scripture?

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 20 April 2025: If one puts a bookmark at the page called “The New Testament” and then compares the volume of “The New Testament” vs. “The Old Testament”, he/she will find the mere disproportionate “new” of “The New Testament”. “The New Testament” writings present about a quarter of the entire Bible, and if we consider the parallel accounts in the synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke) this percentage drops down significantly. Therefore, it seems like the average Christian reads a small portion of the Bible at best and therefore believes only a small part of it at best. And even this low percentage drops, because there are verses (like Mat 5:17-20) and chapters (like Romans 11), and even the Book of Revelation excluded from the regular sermons. So, do they understand the Bible?! In the following, we would like to posit another way to look at this issue … Read more.


How Matthew Mistakenly Quoted Jeremiah

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 17 April 2025: Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. In the Gospel of Matthew, it appears that the author made a mistake in his account of the betrayal of Yeshua by falsely quoting the prophet Yirmiyahu (Jeremiah). But if Matthew had mistakenly quoted Yirmiyahu, who was the prophet who should have been quoted? And besides, it is quite impossible to suppose that a Levite trained to serve in the Temple would have made such a blunder in the first place. The irony is that the New Testament people do not read the “Old Testament”. It is the object of this work to expose the error found in the Greek text of the Gospel of Matthew and in the KJV translation which questions the credibility of the Greek manuscripts of the Apostolic Writings.

Did God Allow Man to Eat Any Animal Flesh?

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 15 April 2025: Did God allow us in Gen 9:3 to eat any animal flesh, as we desire? Man has absolute freedom of choice, which is not interfered with, and for this reason he can choose what he desires and can direct his activities to a given purpose. A man is free to choose, but he is not free of the consequences. In the issue of clean vs unclean food, there is a common mistake made when it is asserted that the Creator had changed His mind when in one place, He allows something and in another He forbids it. We will try to show that the question of clean vs unclean food is far from being trivial and hope to provide a clear answer below. It is therefore the object of this work to explain the Hebrew text of Genesis 9:3-4, which is not distinctly explained by some commentators, and expose certain misconceptions that still exist today.

Hebrew Word: Religion

Constantine the Great wanted one religion, and the Romans accepted right away.

Constantine the Great wanted one religion, and the Romans accepted right away.

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 23 March 2025: Rabbeinu Nissim ben Reuven (Ran) of Gerona was a Spanish rabbi, Talmudic commentator, and philosopher. He said it very well: “The religions of all times promise rewards destined for the soul after its departure from the body, so as to distance the proof of their claims. Because they are not in possession of the truth, they cannot promise an imminent and tangible sign… But our Torah makes promises that can be confirmed in the here and now—something that no other teaching can do”. Agreeing with this statement by Rabbeinu Nissim ben Reuven, in the following, we would like to posit another way to look at this, specifically in reference to religion. If we want to understand what the Hebrew word for “religion” means, we must pay attention to how the Hebrew language and culture defines “religion”. Read more.


How the Scribe Addressed a Delicate Matter Concerning the Man of Elohim

Time of Reckoning Ministry (TORM) 14 March 2025: A careful reading of the Hebrew Scripture shows that the Hebrew language has no particular words for matters private in nature. Instead, Hebrew uses euphemisms to only describe them in a figurative language, or to hint at, but never explicitly stated, in order that such things should be avoided when reading. In other words, Hebrew language being set-apart from all other languages has no particular names for the terms of intimate relation between a man and a woman. The use of euphemisms by the Torah is nothing unusual in such cases. Torah highly regards intimacy and carefully choose Hebrew words to describe things in a figurative manner to avoid direct language. This we studied in articles dedicated to how the language of Tanach addresses delicate matters of such nature. In the following, however, we will see how the scribes have delicately intervened in the Hebrew text to avoid its literal reading for the same reasons. Read more.
