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...

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...

There are some difficult to understand passages in the Scripture, nevertheless they are with prophetic meanings. One of them is the law of leprosy on an inflicted one whose body is completely covered with this disease. But, what does it have to do with the Son of David who is expected to come? The law of the leprosy we find in Leviticus 13 and 14. And if leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy shall cover all the skin of the infected one, from his head to his...

When reading Isaiah 56:3-7, the reader is left with the impression that the righteous gentiles who keep the Sabbath of YHVH, would have doubts that the Lord would accept them. This article will challenge the translation of the Hebrew word saris commonly translated as “eunuch” and will bring the reader to the true message of YHVH. And let not the son of the foreigner who has joined himself to Yehovah speak, saying, ‘Yehovah has certainly separated me from His...

It is very strange to see an offering for sin for a festival of first-fruits of the harvest — the Festival of Weeks, Chag Shavuot. Why was the need for sin and peace offerings on this solemn day when the people gathered in Jerusalem to celebrate the giving of Torah to Israel? What sin could they have possibly done that would require a sin offering? Before proceeding in studying the next appointed time of the Creator—the Festival of Weeks, Chag Shavuot—the present author...

The First-fruits is considered a purely agricultural holiday under the shadow of Passover and is virtually unknown. However, by His obedience to His Father’s will to take our punishment on the cross and with His resurrection, Yeshua made the First-fruits the greatest of all appointed times of YHVH. Without the fulfillment of the First-fruits as a day of the resurrection of the Lamb of YHVH, the Pesach, all other appointed times make little sense and our faith has no...

In Rabbinical Judaism the Festival of the First-fruits (HaBikkurim) is considered a purely agricultural holiday, in the Messianic movement this day goes almost unnoticeable under the shadow of the Passover, and in the Christianity it is simply unknown. And the reason being is that this forgotten festival is seen as a festival within the Festival of the Unleavened Bread (Chag Matzot), and sadly it has become “too little” to notice. However, the appointed time of...

Should we sacrifice lamb today and eat it for the Festival of the Unleavened Bread (Chag Matzot)? Actually, these are two separate questions which we will answer in this article. But let us recall from Part I of this series that Pesach (Passover) is not a name of feast, nor is it a name of day. Pesach is not a feast at all, but the Passover lamb for the feast of the Unleavened Bread observed for seven days: from the fifteenth until the twenty-first day of the first month of...

In the Rabbinical Judaism the Passover and the Festival of the Unleavened Bread (Chag Matzot) seem to be fused into one feast. We need to clarify that according to the Torah, the actual Appointed Time is the Feast of Unleavened Bread, while “the Passover” is not part of it; Passover is the sacrificial lamb for the feast. In the article Introduction to the Appointed Times of YHVH we discussed the festive seasons and the days which YHVH called מוֹעֲדִים...

The words “Do not sell wisdom, instruction, and understanding” belong to the richest and wisest man ever born. Yet, he says when you obtain the truth (wisdom) from the Scripture, do not sell it for money. In this article we will study what his descendant Yeshua the Messiah says concerning this controversial topic of selling wisdom, instruction, and understanding. In Mat 10:8 he says: “Freely you have received, freely you give”. Obtain truth and do...
