Karaite Korner Newsletter #508 Dated: April 13th 2011. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: The Good News of Passover Next week is the annual feast of Passover, which commemorates the Exodus of the Children of Israel from Egypt. In the Tanakh, Passover refers specifically to the sacrifice offered at the end of the 14th day of the First Biblical Month, whereas the feast is referred to as Chag HaMatzot, Feast of Unleavened Bread. I Write: H2282 חג חג chag chag khag, khawg A festival, or a victim therefor: - (solemn) feast (day), sacrifice, solemnity. H4682 מצּה matstsah mats-tsaw' The Hebrew letters Are: 'Mem, Tzade, and He'. Therefore, the Hebrew Word Should be 'MaTZaH' . From H4711 in the sense of greedily devouring for sweetness; properly sweetness; concretely sweet (that is, not soured or bittered with yeast); specifically an unfermented cake or loaf, or (elliptically) the festival of Passover (because no leaven was then used): - unleavened (bread, cake), without leaven. EXO 23:15 Thou shalt keep the 'feast':(H2282) of 'unleavened bread':(H4682)...... DEU 16:1 Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover unto the LORD thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night. DEU 16:2 Thou shalt therefore sacrifice the passover unto the LORD thy God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which the LORD shall choose to place his name there. DEU 16:3 Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life. DEU 16:4 And there shall be no leavened bread seen with thee in all thy coast seven days; neither shall there any thing of the flesh, which thou sacrificedst the first day at even, remain all night until the morning. DEU 16:5 Thou mayest not sacrifice the passover within any of thy gates, which the LORD thy God giveth thee: In the time period of the Prophets, Jesus:(YaHuWSHuWAh), and the Apostles, the passover sacrifice, namely the lambs, were sacrificed, at the going down of the sun toward the west, before sunset came, which ended the day. The going down of the sun toward the west is the evening time of a day. DEU 16:6 But at the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt. DEU 16:7 And thou shalt roast and eat it in the place which the LORD thy God shall choose: and thou shalt turn in the morning, and go unto thy tents. The way we modernly keep time is not according to the way time was kept during the days of the ancient house of Israel, nor during the time of Jesus:(YaHuWSHuWAh) and the Apostles. Originally, a 24 hour time period began at sunset and ended at sunset. The night time came first, then came the day time. GEN 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. GEN 1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. GEN 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening:(Night) and the morning:(Day) were the first day:(24 Hour Time Period). There were 12 hours in a day. JOH 11:9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. JOH 11:10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him. According to our modern time, the shining of the sun light can exist in a length of time from about 12 hours and 17 minutes unto about 13 hours and 13 minutes in the day time upon the 14th of Abib lunar month, in the land of Israel, depending upon when the New Moon Crescent of green ears of barley is observed, which begins a new year. Therefore, according to that which is written in John 11 verse 9: Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day?" During that time of the year in the land of Israel, during Jesus':(YaHuWSHuWAh’s) time period, the twelve hours in a day began after the sun had already risen, by a certain amount of minutes, depending upon when the New Moon Crescent of green ears of barley was observed. Why is this true? Because the day time ends at sunset, and the night time begin at sunset, throughout the year. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: Every Israelite was required to partake in the Passover sacrifice in order to remain part of God's covenant-nation (Nu 9:7, 13). Eating of the Passover sacrifice was also the means for non-Israelites to enter the covenant. The Israelites left Egypt with a mixed multitude of people from numerous nations and the 12th chapter of Exodus explains how these foreigners could become part of the covenant-nation: When a sojourner sojourns among you and does the Passover to YeHoVaH, circumcise for him every male and then he will approach to do it and shall become as a native-born of the land... There shall be one Law for the native-born and for the sojourner who sojourns among you. The Law is saying that by eating of the Passover sacrifice, the circumcised Gentile becomes an Israelite. There is no legal distinction between the native-born Israelite of the physical seed of Jacob and the sojourner who joins the covenant-nation through the Passover sacrifice. I Write: OLD KJV: EXO 12:43 And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the Passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof: According to King James Version with Strong's Numbers: EXO 12:43 And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the Passover: There shall no {Untranslated word: (H3605): 'Whosoever'} {'stranger': (H1121 H5236): Should Be Written As 'Foreign Stranger of An Heathen Nation'} eat thereof: Strong's Number H3605 was Not Translated into English: H3605 כּול כּל kol kol kole, kole From H3634; properly the whole; hence all, any or every (in the singular only, but often in a plural sense): - (in) all (manner, [ye]), altogether, any (manner), enough, every (one, place, thing), howsoever, as many as, [no-] thing, ought, whatsoever, (the) whole, whoso (-ever). These two Hebrew words below should have been translated as 'foreign stranger' of an heathen nation, instead of being translated as 'stranger'. Why is this true? There is a difference between a Foreign: (NaKaR) Stranger: (BaN) of an Heathen Nation Versus a Stranger: (GiYR), who dwells in the land of Israel, Being Associated with a master's family of Israel. H1121 בּן ben bane From H1129; a son (as a builder of the family name), in the widest sense (of literal and figurative relationship, including grandson, subject, nation, quality or condition, etc., (like H1, H251, etc.): - + afflicted, age, [Ahoh-] [Ammon-] [Hachmon-] [LEV-]ite, [anoint-]ed one, appointed to, (+) arrow, [Assyr-] [Babylon-] [Egypt-] [Grec-]ian, one born, bough, branch, breed, + (young) bullock, + (young) calf, X came up in, child, colt, X common, X corn, daughter, X of first, + firstborn, foal, + very fruitful, + postage, X in, + kid, + lamb, (+) man, meet, + mighty, + nephew, old, (+) people, + rebel, + robber, X servant born, X soldier, son, + spark, + steward, + stranger, X surely, them of, + tumultuous one, + valiant[-est], whelp, worthy, young (one), youth. H5236 נכר nekar nay-kawr' From H5234; foreign, or (concretely) a foreigner, or (abstractly) heathendom: - alien, strange (+ -er). EXO 12:43 Correctly Translated, Should read as follow: And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the Passover: There shall NO 'Foreign Stranger: (NaKaR BaN), Whosoever: (KWL) of An Heathen Nation' eat thereof: ONLY a Circumcised Stranger: (GiYR) Sojourning in the land of Israel, Dwelling Among and Associated With A Righteous Ruling Family of Israel, AND Being Taught The Whole Law, IS TO KEEP the Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread. In Order To Keep The Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread: 1. The Stranger: (GiYR) MUST Be Circumcised. 2. The Stranger: (GiYR) MUST Be Sojourning in the Land of Israel. 3. The Stranger: (GiYR), Who Sojourns in the Land of Israel, Must Remain to Dwell Among A Righteous Ruling Family of Israel. 4. The Stranger: (GiYR), Who Remains to Dwell Among A Righteous Ruling Family, MUST Be Associated With The Righteous Ruling Family of Israel. 5. The Stranger: (GiYR), Who Is Associated With The Righteous Ruling Family of Israel, Must Be Taught The Whole Law. Back To: EXO 12:44 But every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof. Notice: EXO 12:45 A foreigner:(TaSHaB) and an hired servant:(SHaKiYR) shall NOT eat thereof. H8453 תּשׁב תּושׁב toshab toshab to-shawb', to-shawb' (The second form used in Kings Num_17:1); from H3427; a dweller (but not outlandish, H5237); especially (as distinguished from a native citizen (active participle of H3427) and a temporary inmate, H1616, or mere lodger, H3885) resident alien: - foreigner-inhabitant, sojourner, stranger. H7916 שׂכיר śakiyr saw-keer' From H7936; a man at wages by the day or year: - hired (man, servant), hireling. Up Above, Exodus 12:45 can be deceiving, because of the English Translation. Why is this true? There are NO Hebrew Words represented by the two English words 'and, an' in that verse. Therefore, that English verse leads one to think that the Foreigner is one person and the Hired Servant is another person, BUT this is NOT true. They are one and the same person, in this verse. This Verse Should Have Been Written As, 'A Temporary Resident Foreigner:(TaSHaB), who is a Hired Servant:(SHaKiYR), shall NOT eat thereof'. NOW, to Explain: A Foreign Stranger: (NaKaR BaN), whosoever of an Heathen Gentile Nation, NOT Dwelling Among AND Being Associated with a Righteous Ruling Family of Israel, IN the Land of Israel, MUST NOT EVER Partake of the Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread. ONLY Strangers: (GiYR), Who Sojourn, To Dwell in the land of Israel, Associated with a Righteous Ruling Family of Israel, Being Taught The Whole Law To Obey IT, And When Circumcised, MUST KEEP the Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread. There is NO IF, ANDS, or BUTS. There is ONE Law for the homeborn and the stranger: (GiYR), Who DWELLS IN the LAND of Israel. IF the Righteous man, who bought the stranger: (GiYR), FAILED to TEACH ALL of the Law unto the stranger: (GiYR), who dwells among the Righteous Ruling Family of Israel, in the land of Israel, THEN the Righteous man Would Be Transgressing the Law, for failing to obey his obligation, as written in the Law, unto the bought stranger. A Temporary Resident Foreigner: (TaSHaB), who is a Hired Servant, is NOT a Bought Person, whom a Righteous man Owns as a Possession. Therefore, the Hired Servant Must NOT eat of the Passover, to keep the Feast IN THE HOUSE of Israel. Why is this true? The Hired Servant Is NOT Of The House of the Righteous man, who hires the servant from day to day and year to year. A Temporary Resident Foreigner: (TaSHaB), who is a Hired Servant, MUST NOT Keep the Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread. A Temporary Resident Foreigner: (TaSHaB) Does NOT Dwell In the Land of Israel, Being Associated with a Righteous Ruling Family of Israel. A Temporary Resident Foreigner: (TaSHaB) Is NOT of the Stock of Israel. ALL people, Homeborn and Strangers: (GiYR), who sojourn, to Dwell IN The Land of Israel, MUST Become associated with a Righteous Ruling Family of Israel, in order To Be Taught The Law From A Righteous master of a family of Israel, And WHEN Circumcised, MUST KEEP the FEASTS. Hired Servants of Israel, from another tribe, who sojourn in a different tribe of Israel, ARE Natives of the Land of Israel: They MUST KEEP the Feasts. Back To: EXO 12:46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof. EXO 12:47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. EXO 12:48 And when a stranger: (GiYR) shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the Passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof. EXO 12:49 One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger: (GiYR) that sojourneth among you. H1616 גּיר גּר ger geyr gare, gare From H1481; properly a guest; by implication a foreigner: - alien, sojourner, stranger. LEV 24:22 Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger: (GiYR), as for one of your own country: for I am the LORD your God. NUM 15:14 And if a stranger: (GiYR) sojourn with you, or whosoever be among you in your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD; as ye do, so he shall do. NUM 15:15 One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger: (GiYR) that sojourneth with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD. NUM 15:16 One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger: (GiYR) that sojourneth with you. Below, THIS IS DECEPTION. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: With the destruction of the Temple, most Jews believe that the duty of sacrifice, including the Passover, must be fulfilled through prayer. I Write: Prayer is NOT a substitute of Complete Obedience to the Whole Law from The House of Israel. The feasts that the people Keep in the land of Israel, TODAY, are NOT acknowledged by YaHuWaH ALaHiYM. Why is this true? There are NONE in the Land of Israel Obeying the Law in Righteousness, Today. Today's Nation Of Israel is a Rogue Nation. Why is this true? The Rabbis do NOT teach the Law Correctly, Among the People, dwelling in the land of Israel. ONLY, WHEN the Temple of YaHuWaH ALaHiYM is Rebuilt Upon Mount Zion, Jerusalem, Then the Feasts of YaHuWaH ALaHiYM will be kept again in the land of Israel. This is a deceptive lesson, below. You are using this lesson to deceive with falsehood people into worshipping Pagan alhym. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: This is a lesson that appears in the 14th chapter of Hosea. This prophet lived in the Kingdom of Israel at a time when it was at war with the Kingdom of Judah. The Jerusalem Temple was in Judah leaving the inhabitants of Israel cut off from the Temple and all legitimate sacrifice. In this context, the prophet teaches the people a path to repentance which includes fulfilling the duty of sacrifices through prayer: Return, O Israel, to YeHoVaH your God for you have stumbled in your iniquity. Take with you words and return to YeHoVaH, say to him: "Forgive all iniquity, and receive goodness, and let us pay for the bulls with our lips. Assyria will not save us, nor shall we ride upon horse; and we shall no longer call the work of our hands 'our gods', because in you the orphan finds mercy." Hosea 14:2-4 I Write: Today, there are NO Anointed Righteous Prophets Of YaHuWaH ALaHiYM in the Land of Israel. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: The elements of repentance that the prophet Hosea lays down are: 1) Return to God, 2) Ask for forgiveness, 3) Do good in place of the bad you have done, 4) ask God to accept prayer as a payment for sacrifice, 5) profess God to be your only savior, not man or your own might, 6) deny false gods of your own creation, and 7) proclaim God as the Father who acts mercifully even to the fatherless. Ever since the destruction of the Temple, Jewish 'sojourners' have followed the teaching of Hosea and joined the covenant-nation by participating in prayers at the Passover seder, the annual commemoration of the sacrifice on the first night of Chag HaMatzot. I Write: REPENTANCE Can NOT be Established with the people dwelling in the land of Israel, UNTIL the Sons of Zadok have risen from the ground, as the Priests in the rebuilt Temple of YaHuWaH ALaHiYM. This prophecy is YET to Occur. We MUST Earnestly Desire for the True Peace of Jerusalem. This Below is Hog Wash: Nehemia Gordon Wrote: In modern times, becoming a Jewish sojourner has become not only a religious act but also a political one. It entitles the 'convert' to citizenship under the Israeli 'Law of Return'. The secular State of Israel has stepped in and imposed certain standards that every Jewish denomination must follow in their conversions. The Karaite Jewish community is no exception. As a result, modern-day conversion, unfortunately, has as much to do with Israeli religion-politics as it does with being a true Israelite in the eyes of the Creator as set down in his Law. The running joke in Israel is that if Ruth the Moabite turned up at the border she would not be recognized as a Jew. I Write: Ruth was NOT EVER A Moabite. SATAN DECEIVES BY FALSEHOOD. That portion of the land of Moab was ruled by Israel people before Ruth was ever born. She was a woman of Israel from one of the tribes of the house of Israel, that was placed into the land sometime after Sihon king of the Amorites was defeated. Otherwise the Law would have been transgressed by Boaz. DEU 23:3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall NOT enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever: DEU 23:4 Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee. DEU 23:5 Nevertheless the LORD thy God would not hearken unto Balaam; but the LORD thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee, because the LORD thy God loved thee. DEU 23:6 Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days For Ever.. Study the Scriptures and Stop this False prophet teaching nonsense! Nehemia Gordon Wrote: Up until 2007, the Karaite Jewish community did not perform any conversions of non-Jews. In July of that year I was privileged to be present at the first formal conversion ceremony of this sort in recent memory at the Karaite Jewish synagogue in Daly City, California. The conversion ceremony was carried out by the 'Karaite Jews of America' with the approval of the 'Council of Sages', the official Karaite Jewish institution recognized by the State of Israel. When the idea of conversion was first presented to the 'Council of Sages' they insisted on certain standards beyond those imposed by the State. One of their biggest issues was that Karaite conversion not be 'evangelical'. The Christian evangelical spirit of going out and convincing people to change their beliefs is alien to the Jewish experience of the last 1000+ years. In most parts of the Diaspora, evangelizing to the Jewish faith was punishable by death at the hands of the Gentiles. This made Jews gun-shy about spreading their faith and this is still the general Jewish sentiment today. I Write: This up above was allowed By YaHuWaH ALaHiYM because of the transgression of the Law. Moreover, ALL Inspired Prophecy WILL be Fulfilled. The True LORD’s House of God of Jacob was completely destroyed, toward the end of the first century in this common era, BY these Roman Gentile Christians, who were established in the land of Rome by Constantine, the Savior of Modern Christianity. Apostle Paul wrote, "After my departing, Grievous Wolves will enter in among the people, NOT Sparing the Flock." ACT 20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. ACT 20:30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. ACT 20:31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. ALL Masters of Families of Israel are Obligated, as recorded in the Law, to TEACH their Whole Family the Law. This below is contrary to Law Instruction. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: Whereas Christians consider it the greatest piety to convince people to change their beliefs, in the Jewish world this is considered a repugnant thing. The Jewish attitude is that our covenant of faith with God is a closely-guarded treasure. If a non-Jew wants to share in this treasure he must come of his own volition and internal conviction. In fact, Jewish tradition teaches that when a Gentile comes and asks to convert he must be refused three times. Only upon the fourth request is he allowed. We Jews are not eager to share our spiritual gold. I Write: A Stranger: (GiYR), Who Sojourns to Dwell In the Land of Israel, Is NOT given a Choice as to whether he or she want to obey the Law or NOT. The Stranger Is Required to OBEY the Whole Law, BUT MUST BE taught IT First, From Anointed Righteous Men of Israel, Namely the Sons of Zadok, The Priests. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: While the Karaite Jewish conversion process does not observe this ritual refusal, those who wish to convert are required to arrive at Karaite beliefs on their own before being eligible. Going out and evangelizing those of other faiths is strictly taboo. In the Christian and Muslim worlds 'missionaries' are considered heroes but in Jewish culture they are thought of as vampires who prey upon unsuspecting and unwilling victims. While I can't say this is a biblical attitude, it certainly is a Jewish one that I am not immune to. Recently a friend on Facebook said I was 'as pious as a missionary' and I thought she was casting the worst insult at me, until I realized that in her terminology this was meant to be a profound complement. I Write: If A Saying does NOT agree with the Law and Writings of the Ancient Inspired Prophets, Then there is NO Truth in the Saying. ISA 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. ISA 8:21 And they shall pass through it, hardly bestead and hungry: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse their king and their God, and look upward. ISA 8:22 And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: The conversion ceremony in Daly City wasn't about missionizing or even making people Karaites. The candidates had to be of Karaite faith and practice long before being accepted into the year-long conversion process. The conversion ceremony was about making them Jews in the formal sense, recognized by an established Jewish community, and ultimately by the State of Israel. The Karaite Jewish Bet Din (religious court) in Daly City didn't convert Christians or Muslims or Buddhists to Judaism; they converted non-Jewish Karaites to (Karaite) Judaism. The first man in line for the conversion ceremony was a dear friend who had been living as a non-Jewish Karaite for nearly a decade. His formal acceptance as a Karaite Jew was a monumental moment of prophetic significance for me. I see it as a fulfillment of Isaiah 56 which speaks about the son of the Gentile who joins himself to YeHoVaH becoming an integral part of YeHoVaH's people. The end of that prophecy says: Thus says Lord YeHoVaH, who gathers in the dispersed of Israel, I will gather others unto those I have gathered. I Write: YaHuWaH ALaHiYM Does NOT Acknowledge this False Deceptive Work, Up Above. There Are NO Anointed Priests living upon the Earth, having Authority By YaHuWaH ALaHiYM to perform a righteous Service in the Presence of YaHuWaH ALaHiYM. By Prophecy, The Sons of Zadok, the Anointed Priests, will perform a righteous service of Teaching the Law unto the remnants of Israel, who will come from the Gentile Nations, in the End Time Days, known as the last seven years of the Last Days, when the Temple is rebuilt. Today, those, who think that they are given salvation, are Living A Lie. We have inherited Nothing BUT Lies. Christ:(MaSHiYCH), Jesus:(YHWSHWA), WAS High Priest Over the True LORD’s House of God of Jacob, When IT existed upon this earth at the beginning of this common era. Today IT does NOT exist upon this earth, ANYWHERE. WHY Is This True? MAT 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. MAT 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ:(MaSHiYCH); and shall deceive many. Many modern day Gentile Christian Preachers, Jewish Rabbis, and Islamic Leaders, ALL over the world, are saying that they are MaSHiYCH:(Anointed Priests), to preach Salvation unto ALL who will believe. DO NOT GO THERE. ALL of them are like False prophets. MAT 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. MAT 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. Where Will The True LORD’s House of God of Jacob Exist in The End Time Days? ISA 2:1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. ISA 2:2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. ISA 2:3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. ISA 2:4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. ISA 2:5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD. ISA 2:6 Therefore thou hast forsaken thy people the house of Jacob, because they be replenished from the east, and are soothsayers like the Philistines, and they please themselves in the children of strangers. IT will exist upon Mount Zion, Jerusalem. Mount Zion was and will be AGAIN 'the Holy Mountain'. The Law of LORD God will be Taught From The Holy Mountain, Again in the End Time. WHY is this true? Because the Temple of LORD:(YaHuWaH) God:(ALaHiYM) will be standing upon Mount Zion in The End Time Days of The Last Days. NOTICE: MAT 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the 'end' come. Up Above, This Word 'end' is referring to the Time of Great Tribulation. When the End: (Time of Great Tribulation) Come, THEN the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of BY Daniel the Prophet, WILL Stand in The Holy Place. Again: THEN the abomination of desolation WILL Stand in The Holy Place. AT that time The Holy Place WILL exist Upon The Holy Mountain of Zion, Jerusalem, Because the Holy Temple of YaHuWaH ALaHiYM will exist upon Mount Zion in The End Time Days. MAT 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) MAT 24:16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: MAT 24:17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: MAT 24:18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. MAT 24:19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days. MAT 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: MAT 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. MAT 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Daniel, the Prophet prophesied of this END TIME Event: DAN 8:9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. DAN 8:10 And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. DAN 8:11 Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. Notice Up Above, This little horn CAUSED:(PAST TENSE) the daily sacrifice to be taken away, and the Sanctuary WAS Cast Down. HOW TRUE THIS IS! The Temple was Destroyed in 70 C.E.. This Below is referring to the Time of The END: DAN 8:12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced, and prospered. DAN 8:13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? NOTICE, The Sanctuary IS given to be Trodden Under Foot by an Host. The Question Is Asked: HOW LONG Will Be The Vision Concerning The Daily Sacrifice, And The Transgression Of Desolation, To Give Both The Sanctuary And The Host To Be Trodden Under Foot? For 2300 Days, THEN the Sanctuary WILL be CLEANSED. DAN 8:14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed. HOW Can the Sanctuary be Cleansed, IF the Sanctuary is DESTROYED? A destroyed Sanctuary does NOT Exist. IT Can NOT be CLEANSED. In The End Time Days, When the Abomination of Desolation Defiles the Holy Sanctuary, IT will NOT be Destroyed. DAN 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. AGAIN: The City Jerusalem and the Temple WAS Destroyed in 70 C.E. .... DAN 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. DAN 9:27 is referring unto the LAST SEVEN YEARS, Before The Holy Son of LORD God Returns unto this earth. When the First THREE and HALF YEARS of the LAST SEVEN YEARS are COMPLETE, THEN the Last THREE and HALF YEARS of the LAST SEVEN YEARS of the END TIME will Exist. When the last three and half years of the End Time Comes, Then the Temple Sacrifices and Oblations Will CEASE, Because of the Overspreading of Abominations, Which Will Defile the Holy Temple. Thereafter The Overspreading of Abominations will be brought to an end, AND the Desolater will NOT be able to defile the Temple, ANYMORE. MAT 24:23 Then: (In The END TIME) if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. MAT 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. MAT 24:25 Behold, I have told you before. MAT 24:26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. WHERE, upon this earth, Will Christ:(MaSHiYCH), Jesus:(YaHuWSHuWAh) return Toward? ACT 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? Notice Up Above, the question is asked, "Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?" Why Did the Apostles ask Jesus this Question? Because the True Kingdom Will Be Restored to Israel, as recorded by the Prophet Ezekiel. ACT 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. ACT 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. ACT 1:9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. ACT 1:10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; ACT 1:11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. Jesus was taken up from the Mount of Olives. In Like Manner Jesus Will Return Back unto the Earth Upon the Mount of Olives. Moreover, the Prophet Zechariah prophesied of this event: ZEC 14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. ZEC 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. ZEC 14:3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. ZEC 14:4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. ZEC 14:5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. ZEC 14:6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark: ZEC 14:7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light. ZEC 14:8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be. ZEC 14:9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one. ZEC 14:10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses. ZEC 14:11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited. ZEC 14:12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth. ZEC 14:13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour. ZEC 14:14 And Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance. ZEC 14:15 And so shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be in these tents, as this plague. ZEC 14:16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. ZEC 14:17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain. ZEC 14:18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the LORD will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. ZEC 14:19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. ZEC 14:20 In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD’s house shall be like the bowls before the altar. ZEC 14:21 Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the LORD of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts. Back To: ACT 1:12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey. Back To: MAT 24:27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. MAT 24:28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. The True Elect of LORD God will be Gathered Together Unto Their Master, YHWSHWA. MAT 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: MAT 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. MAT 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. MAT 24:32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: MAT 24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. MAT 24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Again: This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. What is the length of this generation? Daniel, the Prophet prophesied the Total Length of Time, Concerning This Last Generation, Which Jesus Spoke About. The Total Length of Time of This Last Generation is 490 Years. When the Messiah was cut off, BUT NOT of Himself, THEN there were ONLY 483 years of the Last Generation Completed. There is YET to Exist the LAST SEVEN YEARS, Before ALL These Things Be Fulfilled. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: I have lived this prophecy, having been gathered from a dark corner of the Diaspora to the covenant-land that God gave my people. I've also seen those 'others', people all around the world, gathered to the God of Israel and his covenant. Most of these 'others' will never convert to Judaism but I still believe they are a fulfillment of this prophecy, each through his own relationship with the Creator of the universe. I Write: Below, ALL of these people are being Deceived By Falsehood. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: Over the years I've met Jews of both the rabbinical and Karaite persuasions who do feel called to convince people to embrace the Jewish faith. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with this approach but it is the exception to the rule. One such exception was an old Karaite man in Jerusalem named Mordechai Alfandari. He once told me how Christian missionaries used to harass him on the subway in New York when he was a boy. He spent a great deal of his energies over the next 60 years engaged in Jewish apologetics. I consider Mordechai my mentor as he is the one who opened my eyes to speaking the name of God, which incidentally he pronounced Yihweh. When Mordechai passed away in 1999, I felt like it was expected of me to follow in his footsteps as a counter-missionary but my heart was never in it. The more time I spent speaking with Christians, the more I found I had in common with them. It seemed to me to be a colossal waste of time and energy arguing with them when there was so much we could learn from one another. I realized you can always find differences with people if you want to. God knows there are plenty of differences between me and other Jews and even between me and other Karaites. I decided I would focus my energies on what I have in common with people rather than the differences. I Write: Following the Crowd, giving in unto them, will not bring True Repentance within your heart NOR theirs. The Information below is NOT Righteous. Nehemia Gordon Wrote: Today I don't see it as my job to convince anyone to accept my faith. I believe God is the one who changes the hearts of men, not missionaries or preachers. I see my role as empowering people with information so they can understand the roots of their faith in its original language and context. I am convinced this has value for Jews, Christians, and anyone else who professes the truth of the one true God and his prophet Moses. I'm not sure Mordechai would be pleased with what I am doing today, but I need to follow what I feel my heavenly Father has called me to do. The good news is that a day is coming when the Messiah will sit as the flesh and blood King of Israel, enabling all those who believe in the covenant of the one true God to sit together at the same table and partake in the literal Passover sacrifice. May it be soon in our days. I Write: Believe in the Words of Apostle Paul: ROM 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. ROM 10:14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? ROM 10:15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things. FIRST, People MUST Believe in THOSE, WHO are SENT To Preach the Message of Truth. Believe in the Ancient Inspired Prophecy: EZE 44:15 But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister unto me, and they shall stand before me to offer unto me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord GOD: EZE 44:16 They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister unto me, and they shall keep my charge. EZE 44:17 And it shall come to pass, that when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon them, whiles they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within. EZE 44:18 They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves with any thing that causeth sweat. EZE 44:19 And when they go forth into the utter court, even into the utter court to the people, they shall put off their garments wherein they ministered, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments; and they shall not sanctify the people with their garments. EZE 44:20 Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their heads. EZE 44:21 Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter into the inner court. EZE 44:22 Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her that is put away: but they shall take maidens of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow that had a priest before. EZE 44:23 And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean. EZE 44:24 And in controversy they shall stand in judgement; and they shall judge it according to my judgements: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all mine assemblies; and they shall hallow my sabbaths. How, Where, and Why ALL of this up above will Occur: EZE 37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, EZE 37:2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. EZE 37:3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest. EZE 37:4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. EZE 37:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: EZE 37:6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD. EZE 37:7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone. EZE 37:8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them. EZE 37:9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. EZE 37:10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army. EZE 37:11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. EZE 37:12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. EZE 37:13 And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, EZE 37:14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD. EZE 37:15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, EZE 37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions: EZE 37:17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand. EZE 37:18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these? EZE 37:19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand. EZE 37:20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes. EZE 37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: EZE 37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all: EZE 37:23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwelling-places, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God. EZE 37:24 And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgements, and observe my statutes, and do them. EZE 37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever. EZE 37:26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore. EZE 37:27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. EZE 37:28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.
