The Lamb's Wife Blog: 2021

08/24/21 ~ When might be the Year 6000?

Source: Google Images

In my chronology blog posts of 2016 & 2018 (links below), I reckoned year 2018 as the 6000th year from creation. Obviously I was wrong since we're still here in 2021 (though I did state back then it may be +/- 3 years since we don't know for sure what Jesus' birth year/date is) ... especially since I believe we cannot end the year 6000 without the resurrection of the dead in Christ to be immediately followed by the rapture of the church (wise virgins of Matthew 25:1-13 KJV). That being said, I'll try to summarize how I figured out we're NOT quite there as of 2018 and how it is that I was wrong by about 3 years (having to do with Jesus' birth year) and/or 7 years (having to do with Adam & Eve's fall into sin). Here we go!

If I'm right about creation year being 3982BC, then 3982BC + 2021AD = 6003 years since creation to this year ...however... we are going by 1AD as the pivotal year and if that should have been -3BC (which is equivalent to -2BC Stellarium, etc) then subtracting those 3 years (using -3BC instead of 1AD) brings us to 6000 years from creation this year. BUT, consider this ...

God would not punish mankind for Adam & Eve's sinless years, which according to the book of Jubilees, chapter 3, they were in the Garden of Eden for 7 full years without sin ... they sinned in the 2nd month of the 8th year from creation.

Jubilees 3:15-35 ===> "And in the first week of the first jubilee, [1-7 A.M.] Adam and his wife were in the garden of Eden for seven years tilling and keeping it, and we gave him work and we instructed him to do everything that is suitable for tillage.
And he tilled (the garden), and was naked and knew it not, and was not ashamed, and he protected the garden from the birds and beasts and cattle, and gathered its fruit, and eat, and put aside the residue for himself and for his wife [and put aside that which was being kept].
And after the completion of the seven years, which he had completed there, seven years exactly, [8 A.M.] and in the second month, on the seventeenth day (of the month), the serpent came and approached the woman, and the serpent said to the woman, 'Hath God commanded you, saying, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?'
And she said to it, 'Of all the fruit of the trees of the garden God hath said unto us, Eat; but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden God hath said unto us, Ye shall not eat thereof, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.'
And the serpent said unto the woman, 'Ye shall not surely die: for God doth know that on the day ye shall eat thereof, your eyes will be opened, and ye will be as gods, and ye will know good and evil.
And the woman saw the tree that it was agreeable and pleasant to the eye, and that its fruit was good for food, and she took thereof and eat.
And when she had first covered her shame with figleaves, she gave thereof to Adam and he eat, and his eyes were opened, and he saw that he was naked.
And he took figleaves and sewed (them) together, and made an apron for himself, and ,covered his shame.
And God cursed the serpent, and was wroth with it for ever . . .
And He was wroth with the woman, because she harkened to the voice of the serpent, and did eat; and He said unto her: 'I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy pains: in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children, and thy return shall be unto thy husband, and he will rule over thee.'
And to Adam also he said, ' Because thou hast harkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat thereof, cursed be the ground for thy sake: thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee, and thou shalt eat thy bread in the sweat of thy face, till thou returnest to the earth from whence thou wast taken; for earth thou art, and unto earth shalt thou return.'
And He made for them coats of skin, and clothed them, and sent them forth from the Garden of Eden.
And on that day on which Adam went forth from the Garden, he offered as a sweet savour an offering, frankincense, galbanum, and stacte, and spices in the morning with the rising of the sun from the day when he covered his shame.
And on that day was closed the mouth of all beasts, and of cattle, and of birds, and of whatever walks, and of whatever moves, so that they could no longer speak: for they had all spoken one with another with one lip and with one tongue.
And He sent out of the Garden of Eden all flesh that was in the Garden of Eden, and all flesh was scattered according to its kinds, and according to its types unto the places which had been created for them.
And to Adam alone did He give (the wherewithal) to cover his shame, of all the beasts and cattle.
On this account, it is prescribed on the heavenly tablets as touching all those who know the judgment of the law, that they should cover their shame, and should not uncover themselves as the Gentiles uncover themselves.
And on the new moon of the fourth month, Adam and his wife went forth from the Garden of Eden, and they dwelt in the land of Elda in the land of their creation.
And Adam called the name of his wife Eve.
And they had no son till the first jubilee, [8 A.M.] and after this he knew her.
Now he tilled the land as he had been instructed in the Garden of Eden." http://www.pseudepigrapha.com/jubilees/3.htm

So, 3982BC and excluding the next 7 years brings us to 3975BC and 3975BC + 2021AD = 5996 years from their fall to this year ...but wait, there's more! 5996 years minus that 3 years (-3BC instead of 1AD) brings us down to 5993 years from their sin to this year. That leaves 7 years from their sin not yet accounted for, and that would be the tribulation period from 2021 to 2028.

So, in short:
3982BC was the year of creation
3975BC was the year of Adam & Eve's fall into sin

3982BC + 2021AD = 6003 years - 3 (BC instead of 1AD) = year 6000 (for 2021). And simultaneously
3975BC + 2021AD = 5996 years - 3 (BC instead of 1AD) = year 5993 (for 2021) + 7 years of tribulation = 6000 years from Adam & Eve's fall into sin to Jesus' second coming (in 2028AD). I hope that makes sense!

And yes, I could still be wrong *again* because we don't have a solid date on Jesus' birth year. I'm trying to figure it all out just like many of you are! I can always fall back on the fact that I'm only human, and that things are only revealed in their appointed time so I work with the information I have at the time of writing these posts. I believe the stated years to be accurate but could be +/- a year because one Jewish year spans parts of two of our Gregorian years. For instance, our current Gregorian year is 2021, the Jewish/Hebrew year right now is 5781 (years from creation), but they roll into 5782 on the evening (sunset) of Sep 6, 2021, which is YOM TERUAH, the day of the TRUMPETING BLASTS (otherwise know as Rosh Hashanna or their New Year on 29 Elul, 5781 - 1 Tishrei, 5782 ... could THIS be THE DAY of the "last trump"?). I know for a fact their years are WRONG by 221-222 years, it's closer to 6000 years from creation, not 5781/5782 years! Just sayin' ...

As I like to say, here's to hoping the rapture is sooner than later!

08/12/21 ~ When is the "New Moon"?

Source: Google Images

This is my belief based on what I understand from scriptures and simple logic, ask questions instead of hanging on to tradition. Things to Ponder:

Q: Why did God create the Sun, Moon ... and Stars?
A: "And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so." {Genesis 1:14-15 KJV}

Q: Since He created three witnesses in the heavens - the Sun, Moon, AND Stars, should people be watching only one or two of them to tell celestial time by?
A: No. We need to be telling time by ALL THREE WITNESSES - just like our clocks today, His celestial clock has an hour hand (Sun), a minute hand (Moon), and the seconds hand (Stars) - all three are required to accurately tell time by the heavens.

Q: Does God need man to be a witness of His heavenly clock? If not, why?
A: No. Because He placed His own witnesses in the heavens. At best mankind is an additional witness of His already occurring three witnesses in the heavens.

Q: How has God set His timepiece in the heavens as a triple witness?
A: The Sun, Full Moon and its accompanying Stars are at (or near) the horizon at the same time, though on opposite ends thereof. If one's view of both the East and the West horizons were unobstructed, as in the old days when Israelites would stand atop a high hill, one could see the setting Sun in the West while the Full Moon is rising to "rule the night" with its accompanying Stars in the East. The rising Full Moon greets the setting Sun every month.

Q: Did God create the Moon in full darkness? Or did He create it in full light, that is, fully reflecting the Sun?
A: "And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: [he made] the stars also." {Genesis 1:16 KJV}

Q: Can a dark Moon that isn't seen at all "rule the night"? Or a sliver/crescent Moon? If not, why?
A: No. Because it's not seen at all, or barely so. These are the darkest days of a month. A dark/crescent Moon does not "rule the night"? It can't. The scripture above is referring to the Full Moon.

Q: According to Genesis, God created the Sun as the greater light. He created the Moon as the lesser light. Ask yourselves ... if the Moon represents the bride of Christ then which makes the most sense?
A: The Full Moon (bride) fully reflects the Sun (Son) in her fullness ...because... the dark/crescent moon (at best the foolish virgins) does not reflect the Sun (Son) at all, or barely.

Q: Would David hide in a field until the third day at evening on the darkest night of a month? Or, would he be hiding due to the light of a Full Moon?
A: He said this because the monthly festival of the "new moon" was at hand.
"And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, to morrow [is] the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third [day] at even." {1 Samuel 20:5 KJV}

Let's examine that shall we?
Strong's H2320
https://www.blueletterbible.org/lexicon/h2320/kjv/wlc/0-1/
Outline of Biblical Usage [?]
> the new moon, month, monthly
>> the first day of the month
>>> the lunar month
Strong's Number H2320 matches the Hebrew חֹדֶשׁ (ḥōḏeš), which occurs 283 times in 224 verses in the WLC Hebrew. Codesh/Chodesh/Hodesh means "month", it does not indicate whether the Moon was dark, crescent or full ... but because it was a festival for two evenings every month, by implication it was a Full Moon, which was the safest for people to travel to/from ... by the fullest light of the Moon.

So, ask yourselves ...
Q: Would people gather for a festival on the nearly darkest night of a month? Or, would they gather on the night of the brightest, fullest Moon of the month? Would people travel to/from a festival on the darkest evening of the month? Or, would people travel to/from a festival on the brightest, fullest Moon of the month?
A: The brightest, fullest Moon. Think on this, if the crescent moon were the correct night to have their festival then they wouldn't even know when their festival meal nights were until the actual *official sighting* of the first crescent moon!

Q: Why would David hide himself in a field for the darkest nights of the month?
A: He didn't. The Moon was its brightest & fullest of the month, therefore, New Moon day was the FULL Moon and he hid in a field because otherwise he'd be too easily found. He would not have such a fear if the Moon were either dark or crescent.

Psalm 81:3 - translations to consider ...
KJV    Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.
NKJV    Blow the trumpet at the time of the New Moon, At the full moon, on our solemn feast day.
ESV    Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.
NASB    Blow the trumpet at the new moon, At the full moon, on our feast day.
RSV    Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.
ASV    Blow the trumpet at the new moon, At the full moon, on our feast-day.
AMP    Blow the trumpet at the New Moon, At the full moon, on our feast day.
YLT    Blow in the month a trumpet, In the new moon, at the day of our festival,
DBY    Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the set time, on our feast day:
WEB    Blow the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.
HNV    Blow the shofar at the New Moon, At the full moon, on our feast day.
RHE    Blow up the trumpet on the new moon, on the noted day of your solemnity.
WYC    Blowe ye with a trumpe in Neomenye; in the noble dai of youre solempnite.
JPS    Blow the horn at the new moon, at the full moon for our feast-day. {JPS 81:4}
^^^ This is the "new moon" festival that David was observing, the monthly Full Moon festival.

Q: Why has this monthly festival been lost on Israel to this very day?
A: Because she observes the crescent Moon sighting rather than the rising Full Moon with its accompanying Stars greeting the setting Sun on the horizon every month, the two (or more) great celestial witnesses ignored.

Q: Why would He say that the gates to the city shall remain open on a New Moon?
"Thus saith the Lord GOD; The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the sabbath it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened." {Ezekiel 46:1 KJV}
A: The "New Moon" was a festival day, and people would be traveling to/from (through the gates) on that day. It is most likely that they would be traveling during a Full Moon, not a dark/crescent moon.

Proverbs 7:20 - translations to consider ...
KJV    For the goodman [is] not at home, he is gone a long journey: He hath taken a bag of money with him, [and] will come home at the day appointed. {Proverbs 7:19-20 KJV}
NIV    He took his purse filled with money and will not be home till full moon.
ESV    he took a bag of money with him; at full moon he will come home.
CSB    He took a bag of silver with him and will come home at the time of the full moon.
NASB    He has taken a bag of money [fn]with him. At the full moon he will come home.
RSV    he took a bag of money with him; at full moon he will come home.
ASV    He hath taken a bag of money with him; He will come home at the full moon.
AMP    He has taken a bag of money with him, And he will come home on the appointed day.
YLT    A bag of money he hath taken in his hand, At the day of the new moon he cometh to his house.
DBY    he hath taken the money-bag with him, he will come home on the day of the full moon.
WEB    He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.
HNV    He has taken a bag of money with him. He will come home at the full moon.
RHE    He took with him a bag of money: he will return home the day of the full moon.
WYC    He took with hym a bagge of money; he schal turne ayen in to his hous in the dai of ful moone.
JPS    He hath taken the bag of money with him; he will come home at the full moon.
^^^ Notice these are all either Full Moon, or our Solemn Day, or the Appointed Day ... Day Appointed. The day appointed that is their solemn feast/festival days for the Full Moon, NOT the dark (conjunct) nor the crescent moon. Logic should prevail here ===> WHEN is it safest to travel if doing so at night? The Full Moon.

Q: Did you know that Jesus refers to Proverbs 7:19-20 speaking of Himself in the Parable of the Landowner / Vine-grower?
A: Matthew 21:33-46, Mark 12:1-12, Luke 20:9-19
^^^ He (Jesus) went into a "far country" (the world) for a "long time", that being the "times of the Gentiles", to obtain for Himself a kingdom (bride).

James also understood ...
"Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain." {James 5:7 KJV}

Q: Did you know that when Jesus told the Parable of the Talents that He was speaking of Himself, a man taking a long journey?
A: Matthew 25:14-30, Mark 13:35-37, Luke 19:11–27

Q: Did you know that the setting Sun is on or near the horizon at the same time as the rising Full Moon & its accompanying Stars ... every month?
A: These are the heavenly two (or more) witnesses; not a singular dark/crescent moon for which Israel had to have "two witnesses" - you should read their ancient writings about what trouble this was to the governing persons of that time.

Q: When did God retract or abolish these statements?
"Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; [it is] iniquity, even the solemn meeting. Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear [them]. And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood. Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow." {Isaiah 1:13-17 KJV}
...OR...
"I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts." {Hosea 2:11 KJV}
A: He didn't. Read the whole chapter, still true, thus, and sadly, Jacob's trouble is coming.

BTW, I can only find three instances of the word "crescent" and that's in the following ...
"Strong's Number H7720 matches the Hebrew שַׂהֲרֹנִים (śahărōnîm), which occurs 3 times in 3 verses in the WLC Hebrew." Strong's H7720 https://www.blueletterbible.org/lexicon/h7720/nasb95/wlc/0-1/

"Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, "Rise up yourself, and fall on us; for as the man, so is his strength." So Gideon arose and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescent[H7720] ornaments[H7720] which were on their camels' necks." ... "The weight of the gold earrings that he requested was 1,700 [shekels] of gold, besides the crescent[H7720] ornaments[H7720] and the pendants and the purple robes which [were] on the kings of Midian, and besides the neck bands that [were] on their camels' necks." {Judges 8:21, 26 NASB95}

"In that day the Lord will take away the beauty of [their] anklets, headbands, crescent[H7720] ornaments,[H7720] ..." {Isaiah 3:18 NASB95}

You can look at various other translations here ...

https://www.blueletterbible.org/nasb95/isa/3/18/p0/t_bibles_682018

Q: What were the "crescent ornaments" (jewelry) a symbol of? Why would the Lord take these away?
A: Read the whole chapter of Isaiah 3.

Q: Did you know that the exodus occurred on the evening of a Full Moon? And that the Lord said that that would be the beginning of months for Israel? Would the Lord lead Israel out of Egypt on the darkest night of the month?
A: To this day Israel observes Passover on the eve of a Full Moon. Jesus died on a Full Moon (April 6, 30AD).

"This month [shall be] unto you the beginning of months: it [shall be] the first month of the year to you. ... For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I [am] the LORD. ... And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that [was] in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle. And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for [there was] not a house where [there was] not one dead. And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, [and] get you forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye have said. Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and bless me also. And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We [be] all dead [men]. ... Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, [was] four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt. ... And it came to pass the selfsame day, [that] the LORD did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies." {Exodus 12:2, 12, 29-33, 40-41, 51 KJV, read the whole chapter}

So then, the next question is ...
Q: What day, 430 years prior, did Israel (Jacob & clan) enter Egypt?
A: Abib/Nisan 15, a Full Moon.

"This month [shall be] unto you the beginning of months: it [shall be] the first month of the year to you." {Exodus 12:2 KJV}

1st Month (Abib/Aviv) - "And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this [place]: there shall no leavened bread be eaten. This day came ye out in the month Abib." {Exodus 13:3-4 KJV}
^^^ "This day" was the FIRST DAY of Israel's first month, to the day, when she departs out of Egypt (aka: Abib/Nisan 15).

2nd Month (Iyar/Iyyar) - "And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which [is] between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt." {Exodus 16:1 KJV}
^^^ 2nd month, to the day, Israel arrived at the wilderness of Sin on yet another Full Moon day of Iyyar 15.

3rd Month (Sivan) - "And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt. ... And it came to pass the selfsame day, [that] the LORD did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies." {Exodus 12:41, 51 KJV}
^^^ 3rd month, to the day, Israel arrived at Mt Sinai on Sivan 15 (their date is Sivan 6, a dark moon on their Hillel II pre-calculated calendar), but truly yet another Full Moon.

The 14th to 15th day of the month is the Full Moon, not the crescent moon. To this day, both Passover & Tu B'Av are celebrated on Full Moon days. Shavuot is celebrated on a dark moon but you can clearly see in scripture that Israel arrived at Mt Sinai on the "selfsame day" that they left (Nisan 15) Egypt, so the correct date (in the third month) of Shavuot should be Sivan 15 (not Sivan 6 as they observe). Three days later Israel met her Betrothed on Sivan 17-18 ... which exactly mirrors Passover and Jesus' death on April 6, 30AD (Nisan 15), which was a Full Moon, to His resurrection three days later on April 9, 30AD (Nisan 17-18). I am NOT disputing the dates such as Nisan/Abib 14, 15, etc ... I am disputing whether those dates fall on a dark/crescent moon or a Full Moon and obviously they are a Full Moon. I believe the naming/numbering still follows those by whom she was captive and don't correctly reflect the true new moon, which is the Full Moon.

Israel could NOT have left Egypt on the "first day" of the "first month" (dark/crescent moon), likewise, Israel did NOT arrive at Mt Sinai on the "first day" of the "third month" as some rabbinic teaching says, we clearly see the dates in scripture as the 15th day. The 15th day is a Full Moon. https://www.sefaria.org/search?q=day%20month%20left%20Egypt&tab=sheet&tvar=1&tsort=relevance&svar=1&ssort=relevance

Sefaria search for "full moon" https://www.sefaria.org/search?q=%22full%20moon%22&tab=text&tvar=1&tsort=relevance&svar=1&ssort=relevance

BTW, based on scripture, I believe Shavuot is indeed a 50th day count from Passover. However, Jesus also said the following at the time of Passover ... "Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest." {John 4:35 KJV} ... if the true Passover on a Full Moon should have been April 26, 2021 (not March 27, 2021 as Israel incorrectly observed) then four Jewish months from that date brings us to the Full Moon of August 22, 2021.

From Monday, April 26, 2021 Passover, Full Moon
Added 118 days <=== by the Jews' calendar
(Nisan 30, Iyyar 29, Sivan 30, Tamuz 29 = 118 days)
(4 months then cometh the harvest, John 4:35)
Passover -to- Shavuot/Pentecost/Tu B'Av
Result: Sunday, August 22, 2021 Shavuot/Pentecost/Tu B'Av, Full Moon

How do I reconcile that Israel observes the "New Moon" as the sighting of the first crescent rather than a Full Moon? I believe that in David's day the Full Moon was indeed the New Moon, but sometime thereafter, likely during one of their extended captivities & exiles, possibly as late as the Roman empire, they lost the truth and believed a lie from a kingdom in which they were captive under, and still do to this day. Just because something is observed by tradition doesn't make it right. ALL answers are in His word. And these passages, although not "cannon", do support scripture quoted above {Isaiah 1:13-17 KJV & Hosea 2:11 KJV} - I think this portion of the book of Jubilees, chapter 6, sums it up ...

"But if they do neglect and do not observe them according to His commandment, then they will disturb all their seasons and the years will be dislodged from this (order), [and they will disturb the seasons and the years will be dislodged] and they will neglect their ordinances.
And all the children of Israel will forget and will not find the path of the years, and will forget the new moons, and seasons, and sabbaths and they will go wrong as to all the order of the years.
For I know and from henceforth will I declare it unto thee, and it is not of my own devising; for the book (lies) written before me, and on the heavenly tablets the division of days is ordained, lest they forget the feasts of the covenant and walk according to the feasts of the Gentiles after their error and after their ignorance.
For there will be those who will assuredly make observations of the moon -how (it) disturbs the seasons and comes in from year to year ten days too soon.
For this reason the years will come upon them when they will disturb (the order), and make an abominable (day) the day of testimony, and an unclean day a feast day, and they will confound all the days, the holy with the unclean, and the unclean day with the holy; for they will go wrong as to the months and sabbaths and feasts and jubilees." {Jubilees 6:33-37} http://www.pseudepigrapha.com/jubilees/6.htm

IMHO: The Full Moon -IS- the true "New Moon". It was also a Full Moon on the day Jesus died (April 6, 30AD @ 3PM Israel time) for His bride, the church, and I believe it will be the day He appears for her at the rapture ... perhaps that day is August 22, 2021.

What's happening on August 22, 2021? The *possible* day (August 22, 2021) and hour (3:01PM, Israel time).

*** The last potential 2021 date for Shavuot/Pentecost, in the fifth month - which is four months from the true Full Moon Passover of April 26, 2021!

*** The last possible date of Tu B'Av - which according to Jewish tradition as written by Gamliel (Gamaliel, Paul's teacher) is second only to Yom Kippur in importance!

*** It will be a "Blue Moon" - being the 3rd Full Moon in a season (summer).

*** This month's moon name themes are fish & harvesting - reminiscent of the two miracles (fish/loaves) Jesus did, eh!? But hey, how's about that "Flying Up" moon!? WOW!
From The Old Farmer's Almanac site:
• Sturgeon <=== fish
• Black Cherries <=== harvest
• Corn <=== Wheat is also called Corn in the bible
• Flying Up <=== 0.o
• Harvest <=== self explanatory!
• Mountain Shadows <=== meeting at Mt Sinai?
• Ricing <=== harvest
In addition, Time and Date site has the following:
• Barley <=== harvest
• Fruit <=== harvest
• Grain <=== harvest
(but they have the Harvest moon in Sep or Oct)

*** Interestingly, the Jews are now on their sixth month called Elul (look it up on Chabad), when (according to their rabbinic writings) ===> "the King is in the fields" <=== and the English word "Elul" is an acronym for the Hebrew words in Song of Songs (see chapters 5-7) ... "אני לדודי ודודי לי, “I am for my beloved and my beloved is for me,”" Is the King inspecting the fields looking for those ripe to harvest (rapture)? ;o}

To the bride (Full Moon) ... are you fully reflecting the light of the Son (Sun)? Are you ready for His appearing? We don't know for sure when exactly that will be, but I believe I may have discovered some good math on this date. Here's to hoping our redemption is sooner than later!

Maranatha to our King & Bridegroom!

07/23/21 ~ Are we there yet?

Source - Google Images

Why do many end-time *watchers*, including me, believe that we're near the time of the resurrection of the dead in Christ and the rapture of the saints to meet the Lord in the air (the end of the "times of the Gentiles")? Simple. The math!

Psalm 90:10 declares that a generation is between 70-80 years. Israel, the "fig tree", became an independent state (nation) on May 14, 1948, and even she knows she is the biblical "fig tree" (based on OT scriptures).

The math: 1948+80 years (the max for a generation) = 2028-7 years (tribulation period) = 2021 <=== THIS is why we believe that we have arrived at the time of our redemption ...

"The days of our years [are] threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength [they be] fourscore years, yet [is] their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away." {Psalm 90:10 KJV - a "score" is twenty years: so "threescore" being 3x20 = 60 years + ten = 70 years; "fourscore" being 4x20 = 80 years}

Jesus' three biblical witnesses of His prophecy of the "fig tree" ...

"Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer [is] nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, [even] at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled." {Matthew 24:32-34 KJV}

"Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near: So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, [even] at the doors. Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done." {Mark 13:28-30 KJV}

"And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled." {Luke 21:29-32 KJV}

We are that final generation. Jesus' words about Israel, still true ...

"And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled." {Luke 21:24 KJV}

Paul's words, read the whole chapter {"the fall of them" being Israel} ...

"Now if the fall of them [be] the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness? ... For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in." {Romans 11:12, 25 KJV}

What is the "fulness of the Gentiles", elsewhere called the "times of the Gentiles"? It's these past 1991 +/- years, since the death of the Testator (Jesus, who died April 6, 30AD & resurrected April 9, 30AD) until now (2021), which also includes Israel's becoming a sovereign nation 73 years ago (2021-1948), which is exactly 7 years (tribulation period) shy of a full 80 years!

"How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions [that were] under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. For where a testament [is], there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament [is] of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth." {Hebrews 9:14-17 KJV}

Jesus explains these "times of the Gentiles" as a Nobleman (Himself) being in a far country (the world) to receive a kingdom (bride). In other words, from the time of His death/resurrection until now, He's been out in the field (the world) gathering a kingdom (elsewhere called a bride) for Himself and he will come home at a full moon ...

"He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return." {Luke 19:12 KJV}

More on that timing in an upcoming article - hint: when is the New Moon?

And yes, IF the years 2021-2022 pass and we're still here then we've figured a generation wrong using the wrong scripture. I will continue to watch all the same. The signs are all around us, it can't be much longer in terms of years. Keep looking up, keep watching!

07/14/21 ~ August 22, 2021 ?Rapture?

What's so special about ... August 22, 2021? Maybe nothin', maybe somethin'. How's about a *guess* at the rapture, date watchers!? Look ... IF 2021 is the year of the rapture then this math works wonders! All dates could vary +/- a day depending on one's location in the world. Click images to enlarge ;o}

SUNDAY, August 22, 2021 Shavuot/Pentecost/Tu B'Av
===> Shavuot/Pentecost according to Mikal Shabbat's sun, moon & stars data (look him up on Youtube)
===> Full Blue Moon, 3rd full moon in a season
===> Tu B'Av - if Israel should have started their year (Nisan)
-after- the spring equinox (in April, not March)
===> Four months from the true Passover (April 25/26, 2021) to the harvest (rapture, August 22, 2021?)

Jerusalem: Full Blue Moon on August 22, 2021 @ 3:01 PM their time ... the *same* time of day that Jesus died on that blessed Passover on April 6, 30 AD (also a full moon)! Coincidence? I think not! There's no such thing as the word *coincidence* in Hebrew, or so I hear.

August Full Moon Names: Sturgeon Moon, Green Corn Moon, Barley Moon, Fruit Moon, and Grain Moon (fish and loaves anyone? harvesting!)

TRUE Passover, Nisan 14 = SUNDAY, April 25, 2021 = 120 days
or "four months" to August 22, 2021 Shavuot/Pentecost/Tu B'Av!
What's the likelihood that these dates also line up!?
"Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest." -Jesus {John 4:35 KJV}
===> April 25/26 was the 1st of two SUPERMOONS
(May was the 2nd SUPERMOON)
===> April 25/26 was Israel's Sheni Pesach (2nd Passover)

The math: 2595 days of tribulation (NOT 2520, NOT 2550)
1260 + 1335 (1290+45) = 2595 days (tribulation period)
===> August 22, 2021 Shavuot/Pentecost/Tu B'Av
adding 2595 days equals
===> September 29, 2028 Erev (Eve of) Yom Kippur
Is September 29, 2028 the day we return to earth with the Bridegroom?
Yom Kippur (Tishri 10) may also be the day the Jubilee begins!

HebCal Sep 29/30, 2028 ...

BTW, Tu B'Av is 2nd only to Yom Kippur in importance! But, so so so much more, do your homework on ... Tu B'Av (15th of Av), you can search this blog for more info, here's that link https://thelambswife.blogspot.com/search?q=Tu+B%27Av ;o}

Israel will celebrate Tu B'Av a month too early (July 24, instead of August 22)
Is August 22, 2021 the day of the rapture? <=== Watching!

What does it mean? I'm not sure. Am I saying this is the date of the rapture? Nope! But it's certainly a high watch day for me IF we're still here. I'm always hoping for sooner than later tho!

I'm so ready to go ... Abba up!!!

05/24/21 ~ "four months" then the harvest ...

"So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean
unto the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest;
and dwelt with her mother in law." {Ruth 2:23 KJV}

My notes concerning the following scripture ... "Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest." {John 4:35 KJV}

"four months" ===> https://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?Strongs=G5072&t=KJV
Strong's Number G5072 matches the Greek τετράμηνος (tetramēnos),
which occurs 1 times in 1 verses in the Greek concordance of the KJV

tetramenos:
===> "TETRA" means: "four"
===> "men" means: "month" or "new moon"
===> "os" is plural so "menos" means: "months" or "new moons"
{I believe the FULL moon is the true "new moon", not the crescent}

vvv - investigating the *meaning* of "four" ...

"four"
Strong's H702 - 'arbaʿ
https://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?Strongs=H702&t=KJV
The KJV translates Strong's H702 in the following manner: four (265x), fourteen (with H6240) (19x), fourteenth (with H6240) (23x), fourth (5x), forty (2x), three score and fourteen (with H7657) (2x).

KJV Strong's H7657 matches the Hebrew שִׁבְעִים (šiḇʿîm). <=== "seventy" = 70 (+ 4)
KJV Strong's H702 matches the Hebrew אַרְבַּע ('arbaʿ).
"three score and fourteen" AND "H7657" AND "H702" <=== "sixty and fourteen" = 74

There are no concordance results for "three score and fourteen" AND "H7657" AND "H702" in the KJV.

vvv - which leads me to investigate H7657 "seventy" & "threescore and" fourteen (60+14) ...

"threescore and" = 60 + (10 + 4 = fourteen) = 60 + 10 + 4 = 74
"threescore and ten" = 70 + 4 = 74
"three score and fourteen" = 60 + 14 = 74

70+4=74   <=== Israel began her 74th year on May 15, 2021
{her 73rd year ended on May 14, 2021}

"Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven." (490) {Matthew 18:21-22 KJV}

"Say not ye, There are yet four months,[G5072] and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest." {John 4:35 KJV}

How *might* the above tie into 2021 AD and the rapture?
===> As of today, May 24, 2021AD, which is the 74th year of Israel (from May 15th) ...

"four months" = 120 days

-IF- Nisan/Abib is from (depending on when one starts the biblical year and under what conditions) ...
1=Feb/Mar; 2=Mar/Apr; 3=Apr/May; 4=May/Jun -or-
1=Mar/Apr; 2=Apr/May; 3=May/Jun; 4=Jun/Jul -or-
1=Apr/May; 2=May/Jun; 3=Jun/Jul; 4=July/Aug

Four months, 120 days, from Passover (rather the firstfruit offering) until Pentecost (Shavuot) - Ruth, who was a Gentile, being a typology of the church (living with her mother-in-law, Naomi's, who is a type of Israel - whereby her God is our God, etc, see Ruth 1:16-17 KJV) gleans the harvest until the END of the barley AND the wheat harvests ...

"So she kept fast by the maidens of Boaz to glean unto the end of barley harvest and of wheat harvest; and dwelt with her mother in law." {Ruth 2:23 KJV}

WOW, have we finally arrived at the year of our redemption? We can't know for sure ...but... I sure hope so! Keep looking up!

05/09/21 ~ After the Rapture ...

Revelation 8 ~ After the Rapture

I created this letter today and left a few copies around the house. I post it here for those "left behind", you are in our prayers ...

What happened? Where did I go???

"So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." {Hebrews 9:28 KJV}

If I have * dis-appeared * along with others, fear not, I have joined the love of my life (my husband, Scotty), and others in Christ, to meet our Lord in the air at His appearing (aka: the resurrection of the dead in Christ, followed by, and along with, the catching up of living believers), the rapture of His church has happened. I'm truly sorry that you missed it. And YES, Jasper is fine, he's with me, and NO we were not snatched by “aliens” LOL

"But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." {1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 KJV}

<REDACTED> {Continuing} ... Read all you can find here of what I have saved on paper or put as favorites in my various web browsers. These things (even older stuff) will help you come to terms with where you are in HIS-story (history). Also, read my blog https://thelambswife.blogspot.com/

But of the utmost importance, READ MY BIBLES, any version thereof, I prefer the KJV <REDACTED>. Your answers are in that book, guard it with your life, read it, seek the Holy Spirit to help you understand it ===>not by your own interpretation<=== HE will show you what is to come, IF you've asked the Lord into your heart & life.

So, what happened? The rapture! Read on …

What will happen next? My best guess, you have somewhere between 3-1/2 years to 7 years of tribulation to endure. Come to Jesus, you can still do so though you may well have to die for your faith now …but... remember the early church. If Jesus is your Lord, henceforth, you are among those we call the “tribulation saints”. You now have the baton, run your race to the end. Hold the line, until death if need be. Your reward in heaven awaits you. We await you.

DO NOT TAKE “THE MARK” (in your forehead or right hand), there will be NO HOPE left for you if you do ...

"And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive [his] mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name." {Revelation 14:9-11 KJV}

It is my sincere belief that the 6^th seal of the book of Revelation has occurred, the bride of Christ, the watching betrothed of the church, have been taken as promised, see Rev 7:9-17. The 7^th seal is where you are now, Rev 8, which begins the trumpet judgments. You will, at the very least, have to endure 3-1/2 years (1260 days) of tribulation, that being the 1^st half of the final 7-year period before the Lord (with His church) returns to rule & reign for 1000 years.

Endure, seek the Lord to get through this time if at all possible. Look for the two witnesses (in Jerusalem) in Rev 11, they are telling the truth. Share Jesus, even if it costs you your life … remember the first believers in Him, remember all those that spread the gospel (good news of salvation in Jesus) who were martyred for His name's sake. Stay vigilant, watch for your blessed hope …

"Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed [are] the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud [one] sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped." {Revelation 14:12-16 KJV}

{I have <REDACTED> a couple of places in the above letter as they do not apply to you, the internet reader.}

05/03/21 ~ What Hebrew date is Shavuot?

After much research in-the-bible, I've come to understand that the Jewish date of Sivan 6 as Shavuot is incorrect. The true date of Shavuot (50th day after the morrow after the Passover) is Sivan 17. Here's that info for your perusal ;o}

===> Nisan 15, Israel departs Egypt, 430 years "to the day" from when they arrived ...
"Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, [was] four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even >>>the selfsame day<<< it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt. It [is] a night to be much observed unto the LORD for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this [is] that night of the LORD to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations. ... And it came to pass >>>the selfsame day<<<, [that] the LORD did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies." {Exodus 12:40-42, 51 KJV}

^^^ THIS is where the Jews' err in their chronology for they only acknowledge 210 years, not the full 430! This error puts them short some 220 years! It's not the year "5781", it's closer to the year 6000 right now!

===> Nisan 15 (con't), the month of Abib (verified by the star Spica/Abib) ...
"And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this [place]: there shall no leavened bread be eaten. >>>This day came ye out in the month Abib<<<." {Exodus 13:3-4 KJV}

===> Sivan 15, Israel arrives at Mt Sinai, three months "to the day" ...
"In the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, >>>the same day<<< came they [into] the wilderness of Sinai." {Exodus 19:1 KJV}

===> Sivan 17, on the "third day" after arriving at Mt Sinai ...
"And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify them to day and to morrow, and let them wash their clothes, And be ready against the >>>third day<<<: for the >>>third day<<< the LORD will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai." {Exodus 19:10-11 KJV}

1st day = Sivan 15 (to day)
2nd day = Sivan 16 (to morrow)
3rd day = Sivan 17 (the third day)

===> Sivan 17 (con't), Israel meets, and is betrothed to, God, notice the trumpet! ...
"And he said unto the people, Be ready against the >>>third day<<<: come not at [your] wives. And it came to pass on the >>>third day<<< in the morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the >>>trumpet<<< exceeding loud; so that all the people that [was] in the camp trembled. And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount." {Exodus 19:15-17 KJV}

"And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and >>>the whole mount quaked greatly<<<. And when the voice of the >>>trumpet<<< sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice." {Exodus 19:18-19 KJV}

God gives Israel the 10 commandments, Israel in fear and rightly so!
"And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the >>>trumpet<<<, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw [it], they removed, and stood afar off. And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die." {Exodus 20:18-19 KJV}

===> The true date of Shavuot is Sivan 16-17 (sunset to sunset), NOT Sivan 6. It's worthy to note that Jesus resurrected on the "third day" after His passion (death) on Nisan 16/17 ... three months "to the day", "the self-same day", is Sivan 16/17 ... the day of Pentecost (Shavuot). Do y'all see a pattern here? I sure do!

The first trump(et) would have been when Israel was betrothed to God. I believe we, the church bride, are awaiting something similar that Paul called the "last trump", that we, the betrothed of Christ Jesus (Messiah Yeshuah), are longing to hear ... the day we meet our Bridegroom! Be ready, be wise, make sure your lamps are full of oil, lit, and you have an extra vessel of oil to go the distance.

"Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." {1 Corinthians 15:51-52 KJV}

Maranatha to our Bridegroom, come Lord Jesus, come!

02/18/21 ~ Rebuttal - yeshu-or-Yeshuah?

Click to enlarge the graphic above. This is my rebuttal to rabbi Glazerson's video touching on a couple of issues therein, from a Christian perspective of course (video linked at the bottom) ...

My initial response was: "His name is YESHUAH - Salvation, NOT "yeshu". PERIOD."

Glazerson's reply was: "HIS NAME IS YESHAH תWHICH APPEARS IN TORAH ,BUT AS THE NAME THAT PEOPLE USE IS JESUS, WHICH IN HEBREW IS ישו ,BIBLE CODE WHICH IS THE BLUEPRINT OF CREATION USE THE COMON NAME ,JESUS ישו."

A Youtuber by the handle L S commented by quoting Isaiah 53 in English AND Hebrew, bravo!

My followup reply: "@matityahu glazerson Jesus is simply an English transliteration from the Latin, prior from the Greek, prior from the Hebrew Yeshuah. Same word, different language. He is Salvation, to the Jews first and also to the Gentiles (who are NOT Esau/Edom)."

Up until this point I had not watched the video as I was already incensed by the graphic (as shown above) from the YT screenshot I took. After rethinking, I decided to watch it.

I've already made my argument about His name (Yeshuah or יְשׁוּעָה, or Yeshua or יֵשׁוּעַ) but I'll add some links near the bottom of this post for more from other highly recommended reading sources, please read those too!

As to the correct pronunciation &/or spelling of His Hebrew name, personally speaking, I think Yeshuah is the more correct spelling based on Strong's H3444 https://biblehub.com/hebrew/3444.htm ... and, because God added an "H" to both Sarai (Sarah) and Abram (Abraham), I believe Jesus' Hebrew name was likewise changed from Yeshua to Yeshuah, but that's my own personal stance ;o} I would assume Glazerson's "yeshah" is referring to "yasha" as seen in Strong's H3467 https://biblehub.com/hebrew/3467.htm

Whatever the pronunciation &/or spelling of His Hebrew name, we must remember the meaning of the name is "salvation" & "deliverance", no matter the language. Yeshua(h) is remarkably close in sound to Isha(h), which means "husband", is it not? The Arabs call Him, Isa. OK I'm wandering a bit, back to business!

Now comes the remainder of my rebuttal, for which I'm not sure if I'll post any of this to follow on his YT (OK, I did post more on his YT, couldn't help myself), but my thoughts will also be here for all to see in the future, God willing ...

The kabbalist Jews incorrectly believe in reincarnation, so is Glazerson saying that Jesus ("yeshu" as they derogatorily call Him) is a "reincarnation of Esau" (whom God said He hates btw)? If he is correct then things are NOT looking good for Christians! If Jesus (Yeshuah or Yeshua - NOT yeshu) is the "reincarnated" Esau then Christians and Jesus are *doomed* ...

"The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi. I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? [Was] not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the LORD: yet I loved Jacob, And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness. Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever." {Malachi 1:1-4 KJV}

"As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated." {Romans 9:13 KJV}

So, since Glazerson believes in "reincarnation" and that the "Christian Jesus" is a "reincarnation of Esau", then by extension he is also saying that the One we follow & worship, Jesus, and therefore Christians, are hated by God. Why? Because we know how God feels about Esau according to scripture as noted above. In effect he believes that God hates Jesus, and therefore Christians also. I'd be curious to see what his results would be in the skips using His correct name and spelling.

And YES, Jesus was, and still IS, a JEW, which is short for Ju-dah, as in from the tribe of Judah, though an outcast of Whom they refer to in a disgraceful way as "yeshu" (יֵשׁוּ) being an acronym for the expression "yemach shemo vezichro", meaning “May his name and memory be obliterated”. To date, God hasn't paid them any heed on that, nor will He ever do so since Jesus is His only begotten Son!

Even the graphic that appears in his video quoting Issac Abrbanel spells His name Yeshuah (NOT yeshu), though he appears to not like Him (without a cause, as He said Himself).

"Let not them that are mine enemies wrongfully rejoice over me: [neither] let them wink with the eye that hate me without a cause." {Psalm 35:19 KJV}

"They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head: they that would destroy me, [being] mine enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored [that] which I took not away." {Psalm 69:4 KJV}

"If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin. He that hateth me hateth my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father. But [this cometh to pass], that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause." -Jesus {John 15:22-25 KJV}

As we see, reincarnation is likewise NOT true, per scripture ...

"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." {Hebrews 9:27-28 KJV}

02/15/21 ~ Rebuttal - synogogue of satan

I posted a rebuttal comment to Zev Porat regarding his video (linked at the bottom of this post) as to who he thinks the "synagogue of satan" is, as referred to in Revelation 2:9 & Revelation 3:9. I contend it was/is NOT "Helenized Greeks" as he believes. I leave a copy of my comment here on my blog, with some revisions here -vs- there, for *posterity's sake* ...

Zev, you of all people should know and recognize who the "synagogue of satan" is, it is not "Helenized Greeks". Jesus Himself scathingly testified throughout His ministry as to who they were. You yourself have testified multiple times to not follow the teachings of the rabbis (religious Jews, judaism, midrash, kabbalah, etc). The "synagogue of satan" are the religious/traditionalist pharisees, sadducees, lawyers, scribes, et al, who know not the Father, nor His Son, and are the blind leading the people of Israel (even in the diaspora) astray to this very day ...

"Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. But ye say, Whosoever shall say to [his] father or [his] mother, [It is] a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; And honour not his father or his mother, [he shall be free]. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. [Ye] hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men." {Matthew 15:1-9 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "doctrines" (leaven), "hypocrites" <=== definition of: "This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men."

"And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand : Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man." {Matthew 15:10-11 KJV}

"Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying? But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up. Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch." {Matthew 15:12-14 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "blind leaders"

"Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable. And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding? Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: These are [the things] which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man." {Matthew 15:15-20 KJV}

"Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. ... How is it that ye do not understand that I spake [it] not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?" -Jesus {Matthew 16:6, 11 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees." "leaven" <=== leaven is -false doctrine- that leads to sin or leads astray if heeded.

"Then understood they how that he bade [them] not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees." {Matthew 16:12 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "leaven" = false "doctrine"

"Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, [that] observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay [them] on men's shoulders; but they [themselves] will not move them with one of their fingers. But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, [even] Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, [even] Christ. But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted." {Matthew 23:1-12 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "synagogues", "And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." <=== there is only ONE Father, and He is in heaven. Therefore, the counterfeit is the devil, who is satan.

"But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in [yourselves], neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. Woe unto you, [ye] blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor! [Ye] fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty. [Ye] fools and blind: for whether [is] greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier [matters] of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. [Ye] blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. [Thou] blind Pharisee, cleanse first that [which is] within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead [men's] bones, and of all uncleanness. ... Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. [Ye] serpents, [ye] generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and [some] of them ye shall kill and crucify; and [some] of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute [them] from city to city: That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation." {Matthew 23:13-27, 29-36 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "woe", "hypocrites", "hell", "synagogues"

Second witness: "And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness. [Ye] fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also? But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you. But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over [them] are not aware [of them]. Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also. And he said, Woe unto you also, [ye] lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers. Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them. Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres. Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and [some] of them they shall slay and persecute: That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation; From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation. Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered." -Jesus {Luke 11:39-52 KJV}

KEYWORD: "woe", "hypocrites", "synagogues"

Third witness: "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true. Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, [yet] my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also." {John 8:12-19 KJV}

"I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham. But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God. Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my word." {John 8:37-43 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "ye do that which ye have seen with your father", "Ye do the deeds of your father." (the devil, satan)

"Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell [you] the truth, ye believe me not. Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear [them] not, because ye are not of God. Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me. And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death." {John 8:44-51 KJV}

KEYWORDS: "hell", "Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it."

"Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God: Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw [it], and was glad. Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by." {John 8:52-59 KJV}

The "synagogue of satan" is not the Jewish people, nor those that have come out of religious traditions, it's the blind rabbis that are leading the people astray, and for His scathing words they hated Him then and that fact is still true to this very day.

"I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and [I know] the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but [are] the synagogue of Satan." {Revelation 2:9 KJV}

"Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee." {Revelation 3:9 KJV}
