As Mosheh went twice up to the mountain to receive the tablets, so will the Messiah come twice and return on the Day of Atonement to bring a reconciliation and peace between YHVH and His creation as it was before the fall of mankind. We studied in the last article The Appointed Times of YHVH— Day of Atonement that when the children of Israel made the golden calf, they attempted to depict El in a tangible way using the symbol of an ox, which for them was the most natural way...

What does the Torah say about the so-called professional priesthood and tithes? Is the professional priesthood entitled to receive the tithes; are there any justifications for that in the Torah? The common misconception today is that the Levites had no means of living except the tithe they received for their service in the Temple. Hence, those who call themselves “the new Levites” (priests, pastors, reverends, Messianic rabbis), i.e., the new “professional...

Ten days after the Day of the Trumpets, Yom Teruah, another appointed time of YHVH is set apart. This day is known as the Day of Atonement or Yom Kippur, but more properly: Yom Kippurim. It is considered in Judaism (and rightly so) the holiest, that is the most set-apart day of the year. Why this day is given such a high status by the Rabbis, we will study in this article to which we now turn. These are the appointed times of Yehovah, set-apart gatherings which you are to...

Every appointed time of YHVH is a footstep of the Messiah that leads His people closer to Him. Every appointed time of YHVH is also a set-apart rehearsal for us. And so is the Day of Trumpets. As we walk in the footsteps of the Messiah, beginning with the sacrifice of the Pesach lamb in the spring, we rehearse all appointed times of YHVH and all events that will take place in their own time. And when there is a rehearsal, a real event is coming. If we do not see Mashiach in...

Yeshua gave the only sign, the sign of Jonah (Yonah) the Prophet, to prove that He was the Anointed One of YHVH, the Messiah of Israel. Why would He do this, if not to tell us something we do not usually see. YHVH gave the evidence the Pharisees were seeking for His Son’s Messiahship. And His Son pointed directly to it: the Sign of Jonah. Yeshua the Messiah did many wonders and signs while He was walking on the earth. They all are recorded in the four Gospels and the...

The Torah does not associate the Day of Trumpets, Yom Teruah, with any particular historic event, nor does it give any reason why this appointed time is constituted in the first place. In the Rabbinic tradition Yom Teruah is known as “Rosh HaShanah”, which literally means “head of the year” or the time of the beginning of a new year. But the truth of the matter is that the Torah makes no mentioning at all of the first day of the seventh month as being the head...

Little is known of the 38 years Israel lived in the desert of Arabia. “What was the life of Israel in Arabia?” and “Why a smaller number of people entered the Land?” are the questions we will seek answers in this study. In the article Israel’s Whoring in Egypt, we studied that the Israelites lived a comfortable life in the Egyptian exile and had they remained a moment longer there, they would have risked becoming part of it and there would have...

Christmas is considered one of the holiest if not the holiest day in the Christian calendar of the western Church. Many Christians around the world celebrated the birth of Christ on Christmas Day, the 25th of December. While Christmas is believed to be the day of the birth of Christ, there are strong arguments in the Scripture that this is not the case. Rather, Christmas-like pagan practice around ornamented evergreen trees was celebrated in the ancient world that was...

The ten-horned beast, the New World Order, is wounded to death but resurrected. In this article, we will consider the rise of a new player that is not exactly new but of them: The Shanghai Cooperation Organization of Russia and China, and how it may fit into the last-day prophecy concerning the ten-horned beast. We will continue to study the last day prophecy and more particularly the prophecy of the ten-horned beast in the books of Daniel and Revelation. This study is...

What was the outward appearance of the Messiah, when He walked on the earth, because we are given no account on how Yeshua looked like outwardly in the Apostolic writings? The prophecy of YHVH concerning His Messiah pictured Him as unattractive in His outward appearance. However, the modern perception of Him is as having quite an ideal appearance. The Bible movies portrait Him as a blond, long haired, blue-eyed, Anglo-Saxon Caucasian. Can we rethink this? Unattractive in...

The work of the blood of the Covenant of YHVH is not truly explained in the Torah. Hence, the Festival of Weeks, Chag Shavuot, is not truly understood in its full context, either. And why was there any need for blood in the Covenant? What is the Covenant not called “Covenant of salt”? The answer to this question is coming out from the mouth of Yeshua the Messiah who is telling us that the cup of redemption, which represents the blood of the Passover lambs,...

What do we know about the 215 years Israel stayed in Egypt? And what caused the Exodus and did all Israel leave Egypt? And what or whom did they worship in Egypt? In this article we will study the upsetting matter of the abominations the Israelites committed against YHVH. In the article Will All Israel Return? (The reader is encouraged to read also the related article When Will Israel Return?) we studied that the Israelites defiled themselves with the abominations and the...
