On The First Day Of The Week , Word Study!

Shalom and welcome to Ask Seek and Knock Word Study. Today’s Study is based on the phrase: On The First Day Of The Week. Let’s to go the first scripture. Acts 20:7,

And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.

Acts 20:7 [KJV]

Christians have told me that this verse is why the christians in all churches keep a Sunday Sabbath. Is this really what this scripture is telling us? Does Acts 20:7 Really say “And upon the first day of the week”? Let’s find out by looking up the word, "Week" in the Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance:

Strongs: G4521
4521 σάββατον [SA/BBATON] {sábbaton} \sab'-bat-on\
of Hebrew origin (07676); the Sabbath (i.e. Shabbath), or day of weekly repose from secular avocations (also the observance or institution itself); by extension, a se'nnight, i.e. the interval between two Sabbaths; likewise the plural in all the above applications:--sabbath (day), week.

Alright, it is clear even with the Strong’s Concordance, that "Week", really means Sabbath. I know there are those in other circles that say "I am aware of that" and just ignore the facts and go with what is written in their KJV Bible, but the facts are just that, facts. You have been lied to, and Acts 20:7 should really read like it does here in the Yah Scriptures:

Acts 20:7 [Yah Scriptures]
7 And on one of the shabbathoth, the talmidim having gathered together to break bread, Sha’ul, intending to depart the next day, was reasoning with them and was extending the Word till midnight.

The “Yah Scriptures” has this one right. We have a study for Acts 20:7 here. With just a little bit of study, you can find some really bad blunders, and correct them, Just like 1 Enoch 104 tells us we should.

1 Enoch 104:10-13

10 And now I know this mystery, that sinners will change and pervert the Words of righteousness in many ways, and will speak wicked words, and lie, and practice great deceits, and write books concerning their words.
11 But when they write down truthfully all my words in their languages, and do not change or diminish ought from my words but write them all down truthfully - all that I first witnessed concerning them.
12 Then, I know another mystery, that books will be given to the righteous and the wise to become a cause of joy and uprightness and much wisdom.
13 “And to them shall the books be given, and they shall believe in them and rejoice over them, and then all the righteous who have learned from them - all the paths of uprightness - shall be recompensed.”

We believe at this time, that the books that will be given out that have no lies in them, will be during the millennial reign of our Messiah. Let’s move on to the next scripture. I Corinthians 16:2:

I Corinthians 16:2
2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

Let’s break this down to see if this is the case. Lets go ahead and break down two words that actually have Strong’s Numbers on them; looking at the phrase “Upon the first day of the week”. Let’s start with the word “first”, and while we are at it, lets look at how the Strong’s numbers are laid out in 1 Corinthians 16:2.

[first]
[*StrongsRealGreek*]
1520 εἷς [EI(=S] {heîs} \hice\
(including the neuter (etc.) hen); a primary numeral; one:--a(-n, -ny, certain), + abundantly, man, one (another), only, other, some. See also 1527, 3367, 3391, 3762.

first = one

Now let’s take a look at the word “Week”.

[week]
[*StrongsRealGreek*]
4521 σάββατον [SA/BBATON] {sábbaton} \sab'-bat-on\
of Hebrew origin (07676); the Sabbath (i.e. Shabbath), or day of weekly repose from secular avocations (also the observance or institution itself); by extension, a se'nnight, i.e. the interval between two Sabbaths; likewise the plural in all the above applications:--sabbath (day), week.

Week = Sabbath

This is how 1 Corinthians 16:2 should be phrased:

I Corinthians 16:2:
Upon one sabbath day let every one of you lay by him in store, as Elohim hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

This phrase actually tells us upon one sabbath, and not on the first day of the week. Lets look at another one. This one is very important and should not be ignored. John 20:1.

John 20:1:
The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

Is this really what John 20:1 is telling us? Lets find out.

We are going to look at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, Strong’s Numbers.

[the]
[*StrongsRealGreek*]
1161 δέ [DE/] {dé} \deh\
a primary particle (adversative or continuative); but, and, etc.:--also, and, but, moreover, now (often unexpressed in English).

the = also

Next we will look at the word “first”.

[first]
[*StrongsRealGreek*]
1520 εἷς [EI(=S] {heîs} \hice\
(including the neuter (etc.) hen); a primary numeral; one:--a(-n, -ny, certain), + abundantly, man, one (another), only, other, some. See also 1527, 3367, 3391, 3762.

first = one

and the next word is again, “week”.

[week]
[*StrongsRealGreek*]
4521 σάββατον [SA/BBATON] {sábbaton} \sab'-bat-on\
of Hebrew origin (07676); the Sabbath (i.e. Shabbath), or day of weekly repose from secular avocations (also the observance or institution itself); by extension, a se'nnight, i.e. the interval between two Sabbaths; likewise the plural in all the above applications:--sabbath (day), week.

week = sabbath

John 20:1, can read like this;

John 20:1:
Also one certain sabbath day cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

There are several ways this phrase can be worded, but it was for sure somewhere in the Sabbath. Just look at the Jubilee 2000 version.

John 20:1
The first of the sabbaths, Mary Magdalene came early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre and saw the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

This is much more understandable. Lets move to the next scripture. Lets move to a scripture that most churches proclaim is a sunday or the first day.

Revelation of John 1:10:
I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

I ask is this talking about the first day of the week? Is it? Lets find out what Yah’s Day is by going to Exodus 20:8-11

Exodus 20:8-11
8 “Remember the Shabbath day, to qadosh it.
9 “Six days you labour, and shall do all your work,
10 but the seventh day is a Shabbath of Yahuah your Elohim. You do not do any work - you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates.
11 “For in six days Yahuah made the shamayim and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore Yahuah baraḵ the Shabbath day and qadosh it.

So, looking back at Revelation of John 1:10, is it saying that the first day of the week is the Sabbath? I don’t think so. This scripture is stating clearly that the 7^th day is the Sabbath or Yah’s Day. Yah Blessed this day and made it Holy. The Seventh Day. What else does Yah tell us about the 7^th day? Lets go to Exodus 31:12-17 to see exactly what the Sabbath is for us.

Exodus 31:12-17
12 And Yahuah spoke to Mosheh, saying,
13 “And you, speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘My Shabbathoth you are to guard, by all means, for this is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, to know that I, Yahuah, qadosh you.
14 ‘And you shall guard the Shabbath, for it is qodesh to you. Everyone who profanes it shall certainly be put to death, for anyone who does work on it, that being shall be cut off from among his people.
15 ‘Six days work is done, and on the seventh is a Shabbath of rest, qodesh to Yahuah. Everyone doing work on the Shabbath day shall certainly be put to death.
16 ‘And the children of Yisra’ĕl shall guard the Shabbath, to perform the Shabbath throughout their generations as an everlasting Covenant.
17 ‘Between Me and the children of Yisra’ĕl it is a sign forever. For in six days Yahuah made the shamayim and the earth, and on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’ ”

Truly, this scripture is telling us that those that keep the Sabbath are Marked for Yah. So, what is “The Lord’s Day” or Yahuah’s Day? It Is The Sabbath. The 7^th day. There are many more scriptures that say the exact same thing, and I think you get the picture. Remember, don’t take my word for it, do your own research. Test it for yourself, You will be glad you did.

Fruits of the Spirit – Galations 5:17-23, WRITINGS OF ĔLIYAHU 11:1-12:5, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, Community Rule 1QS, 4Q255-264a, 5Q11, Col. 3:21- Col. 4:5

We would like to show you something interesting concerning the Fruits of the Spirit, that may surprise to you. We are talking, of course, about Galatians 5:17-23. Now concerning the apostle Paul, we believe Paul was well aquatinted with the Dead Sea Scrolls, and we also believe that Paul indeed spent time with priests in Qumran, that were known as the Zadok Priestly line, which Left Jerusalem, because they refused to change from the Zadok, Enoch, Jubilees, Luminary calendar to the Lunar Solar calendar. There are those, even in well respected ministries in the Torah Movement that proclaim that the people in Qumran were Essene's, but recent archaeological evidence has indeed dispelled that theory with facts that prove that the residence of Qumran were actually, The Zadok Priestly Line. For more information on these facts, please read the archaeological book, titled, Qumran In Context, by Yizhar Hirschfeld. Additionally, there are those that proclaim that ALL Levitical priests went astray. Is that True? Not according to: Ezekiel 44:15-16, which states clearly:

Ezekiel 44:15-16
15 “But the kohenim, the Lĕwites, the sons of Tsaḏoq, who guarded the duty of My Miqdash when the children of Yisra’ĕl went astray from Me, they shall draw near to Me to serve Me, and shall stand before Me to bring to Me the fat and the blood,” declares the Aḏon Yahuah.
16 “They shall enter My Miqdash, and they shall draw near to My table to serve Me, and they shall guard My charge.

Not only did the Zadok Priestly Line NOT go astray, they kept the charge of Yahuah and relocating to Qumran to continue the priestly order, when they had to leave Jerusalem because they refused to change to a corrupt lunisolar Calendar, which still exists to this day. The Zadok Calendar is a Luminary Calendar which means the Zadok calendar is a Sun, Moon, and Stars, Calendar. Don’t listen to those who proclaim the Zadok calendar to be a Sun Worship calendar. Those proclaiming such atrocities, are simply unstudied concerning the the truth of the Zadok Calendar. Please do Yah a favor, and Study to be approved.

Now, concerning this short study, we will present not only Paul’s version of the Fruits of the Spirit, which implies that there is another version. Therefore, we will also show just exactly where Paul obtained information concerning the fruits of the spirit. With this in mind, lets get into the study by reading: Galatians 5:17-23:

Galatians 5:17-23
17 For the flesh lusts against the Ruaḥ, and the Ruaḥ against the flesh. And these are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you desire to do.
18 But if you are led by the Ruaḥ, you are not under Torah.
19 And the works of the flesh are well-known, which are: adultery, whoring, uncleanness, indecency,
20 idolatry, drug sorcery, hatred, quarrels, jealousies, fits of rage, selfish ambitions, dissensions, factions,
21 envy, murders, drunkenness, wild parties, and the like - of which I forewarn you, even as I also said before, that those who practise such as these shall not inherit the reign of Elohim.
22 But the fruit of the Ruaḥ is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, trustworthiness,
23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no Torah.

Please notice, the Genious Torah Statements, which only the wise seem to be able to understand. We all see here that there are bad fruits and there are good fruits. As we reflect on our own lives, we can see exactly where each of us stands with our Elohim. Now lets get to the Writings of Elijah 11:1 through 12:5, to get a major surprise. That being, Just Exactly Where Paul Got his Information concerning the Fruits of the Spirit. Lets read on.

WRITINGS OF ĔLIYAHU 11:1-12:5

11:1 These are the fruits of the Elohim of the Ruaḥoth: enlightenment whereby a man can perceive the Ways of Elohim to walk therein, discernment to know the good from the evil, reverence for the Name of Yahuah and consciousness of the approaching judgments of Elohim, humility, patience, abundant charity, love of righteousness, vision, wisdom, trust, faith, confidence in the power of the Almighty Elohim, knowledge, self-mastery, sanctity, pure thoughts, abounding love for all who follow the truth, purity, modesty and the ability to hide within oneself the secrets of Elohim which one has received.
2 All these things come unto men in this world through communion with the Ruaḥ of truth.
3 All those who walk in that path which is set before them by the Ruaḥ of truth shall receive health in their navel and marrow to their bones and shall find wisdom and hidden treasures of knowledge.
4 These shall inherit eternal lives, even the continuation of the seeds forever and ever, worlds without end.
5 Eternal shall be their bireḵoth and everlasting their joy in the realms of glory, for they shall be crowned with light and robed in glory and shall dwell in everlasting burnings in the presence of our Elohim.
12:1 With the wicked it is not so, for the fruits of wickedness are greed, malice, falsehood, pride, presumption, deception, guile, insolence, unrighteous anger, folly, arrogance, lewdness, unchastity, blasphemies, selfishness, blindness of the eyes, deafness of the ears, stiffness of neck and hardness of heart.
2 Such men walk entirely in the ways of darkness and all their works are evil and abominable in the eyes of Elohim.
3 Those who walk in the paths of evil shall receive a multitude of afflictions at the hands of the qodesh messengers.
4 These are the sons of Perdition who are subject to the wrath of Elohim through all eternity.
5 Eternal horror is their end and perpetual reproach, even the disgrace of final annihilation in the fire, for they shall dwell in outer darkness until their end which
is extinction without remnant or survival and after this, their lot no man knoweth nor is it revealed to any man save those who are made partakers thereof.

Alright, now, let’s discuss where the Book of Elijah gets a witness. That’s right, a witness. That being, The Dead Sea Scrolls. Let’s take a look at “A New Translation” by: Wise Abegg and Cook, Page 120, Titled: “Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association”, also known as “The Community Rule”.

CHARTER OF A JEWISH SECTARIAN ASSOCIATION, page 120, “A New Translation” Dead Sea Scrolls by: Wise Abegg and cook. 1QS, 4Q255-264a, 5Q11, Col. 3:21- Col. 4:5

21 The authority of the Angel of Darkness further extends to the
22 corruption of all the righteous. All their sins, iniquities, shameful and rebellious deeds are at his prompting,
23 a situation God in His mysteries allows to continue until His era dawns. Moreover, all the afflictions of the righteous, and
24 every trial in its season, occur because of this Angel's diabolic rule. All the spirits allied with him share but a single resolve: to cause the Sons of Light to stumble. Yet the God of Israel (and the Angel of His Truth) assist all
25 the Sons of Light. It is actually He who created the spirits of light and darkness, making them the cornerstone of every deed, their impulses the premise of every action. God's love for one spirit
Col. 4:1 lasts forever. He will be pleased with its actions for always. The counsel of the other, however, He abhors, hating its every impulse for all time.
2 Upon earth their operations are these: one enlightens a man's mind, making straight before him the paths of true righteousness and causing his heart
3 to fear the laws of God. This spirit engenders humility, patience, abundant compassion, perpetual goodness, insight, understanding, and powerful wisdom resonating to each
4 of God's deeds, sustained by His constant faithfulness. It engenders a spirit knowledgeable in every plan of action, zealous for the laws of righteousness, holy
5 in its thoughts, and steadfast in purpose. This spirit encourages plenteous compassion upon all who hold fast to truth, and glorious purity combined with visceral hatred of impurity in its every guise. It results in humble deportment
6 allied with a general discernment, concealing the truth, that is, the mysteries of knowledge. To these ends is the earthly counsel of the spirit to those whose nature yearns for truth. Through a gracious visitation all who walk in this spirit will know
7 healing, bountiful peace, long life, and multiple progeny, followed by eternal blessings and perpetual joy through life everlasting. They will receive a
8 crown of glory with a robe of honor, resplendent forever and ever.
9 The operations of the spirit of falsehood result in greed, neglect of righteous deeds, wickedness, lying, pride and haughtiness, cruel deceit and fraud,
10 massive hypocrisy, a want of self-control and abundant foolishness, a zeal for arrogance, abominable deeds fashioned by whorish desire, lechery in its filthy manifestation, a reviling
11 tongue, blind eyes, deaf ears, stiff neck, and hard heart to the end of walking in all the ways of darkness and evil cunning.

The judgment
12 of all who walk in such ways will be multiple afflictions at the hand of all the angels of perdition, everlasting damnation in the wrath
13 of God's furious vengeance, never-ending terror and reproach for all eternity, with a shameful extinction in the fire of Hell's outer darkness. For all their eras, generation by generation, they will know doleful sorrow, bitter
14 evil, and dark happenstance, until their utter destruction with neither remnant nor rescue.

After reading this entry in the “Community Rule”, or “Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association”, it, again, becomes evident that the Apostle Paul, was well aquatinted with the “Writings of Elijah”. Not only that, but the “Community Rule” and the “Writings of Elijah”, also known as “Order of the Ancients”, are actually, one and the same. I actually learned this from Tina Black’s, Fight For Truth, Community Rule, Part 1, and Community Rule, Part 2. We hope you enjoyed this short study.

Likeness between the Writings of Elijah 17 & Matthew 18:15-20

Lets get started with the "Writings of Elijah, or ĔLIYAHU", chapter 17 which is also known as "The Order of the Ancients", and in the "A New Translation", Dead Sea Scrolls by: Wise Abegg and Cook, it is known as, "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association", or "The Community Rule", in other versions of the DSS. We will compare "Writings of Elijah, or ĔLIYAHU" Chaper 17, with Matthew 18:15-20. What we aim to understand here is this: Matthew obtained this information in Matthew 18:15-20, from "The Writings of Elijah, which further validates the Dead Sea Scrolls. Lets get started with "The Writings of Elijah, Chapter 17.

The Writings of Elijah, Chapter 17 [Yah Scriptures]
17 : 1 When any member of the community has been offended by another or observes another in wrongdoing, he is not to come against that erring one with a railing accusation, but is to approach him truthfully, humbly and humanely.
17 : 2 A qodesh person of Elohim must not bear hatred in his heart toward his brother.
17 : 3 If the offender will not hear his complaint, then he is to take with him two of the teachers to reason with him.
17 : 4 If the offender will not hear them, then he is to be called before the Kohĕn ha’Gadol and his brethren who are set as judges in Yisra’ĕl.
17 : 5 This will all disputations be settled in order, without anger or emotion, that peace and harmony and unity may be preserved in Yisra’ĕl.
17 : 6 Furthermore, no man is to bring a charge publicly against his brother except he prove it by witnesses, for in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every charge be established.

Those of you that are familiar with Matthew 18:15-20, probably have bells and whistles going off in your head right now, because you already know where this is going with this short study. Lets go ahead and add Matthew 18:15-20 to the mix.

Matthew 18:15-20 [Yah Scriptures]
15 “And if your brother sins against you, go and reprove him, between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother.
16 “But if he does not hear, take with you one or two more, that ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word might be established.’
17 “And if he refuses to hear them, say it to the assembly. And if he refuses even to hear the assembly, let him be to you like a gentile and a tax collector.
18 “Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be having been bound in the shamayim, and whatever you loosen on earth shall be having been loosened in the shamayim.
19 “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning any matter that they ask, it shall be done for them by My Father in the shamayim.
20 “For where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there I am in their midst.”

It is our belief at this time, that Matthew was influenced by the writings of Elijah, which is evidenced by the very same writings found in the Dead Sea Scrolls, "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association". Matthew the Tax Collector, was very much acquainted with the scrolls that ended up in the caves in Qumran. The thing to remember concerning the Dead Sea Scrolls is, Much of it is missing, however, even with that being said, I see hints of this scripture within the "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association", in the Dead Sea Scrolls, right here on Page 124 of "A New Translation" DSS.

Each man is to reprove 25 his fellow in truth, humility and loving-kindness. He should not speak to him in anger, with grumbling, 26 with a [stiff] neck or with a wickedly zealous] spirit. He must not hate him because of his own [uncircumcised] heart. Most assuredly he is to rebuke him on the day of the infraction so that he does not Col. 6 Continue in sin. Also, no man is to bring a charge against his fellow before the general membership unless he has previously rebuked that man before witnesses.

The similarities are very clear, and this cannot be ignored. The Writings of Elijah 17, Matthew 18:15-20 and the "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association", page 124, agree. That's our take on it. We hope you enjoy this blog.

The True Meaning of the word Ba'al

As we start this short study, there will no doubt, be those that will be in disagreement with the contents of this study. With that being said, please consider this study as just another perspective, or possibility.

Lets begin this short study by first reading, "The New Covenant", as it is written in the Yah Scriptures, in Jeremiah 31:31-34

31 “See, the days are coming,” declares Yahuah, “when I shall make a new Covenant with the house of Yisra’ĕl and with the house of Yahuḏah,
32 not like the Covenant I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Mitsrayim, My Covenant which they broke, though I was a husband to them,” declares Yahuah.
33 “For this is the Covenant I shall make with the house of Yisra’ĕl after those days, declares Yahuah: I shall put My Torah in their inward parts, and write it on their hearts. And I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.
34 “And no longer shall they teach, each one his neighbour, and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know Yahuah,’ for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” declares Yahuah. “For I shall forgive their wickedness, and remember their sin no more.”

In this short study, we will focus on Jeremiah 31:32, and Specifically on the word Husband. Lets again read verse 32, this time, in the World English Bible, then break down the word, Husband.

Jeremiah 31:32 (WEBA)

32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which covenant of mine they broke, although I was a husband to them,” says Yahweh.

This word husband, is Strong's Number H166, ba'al, and it is our belief, that the word ba'al, does not mean husband. Keep this in mind, those same people that changed the words in our bibles, also wrote our bible dictionaries. Let's look at the true meaning of the word ba'al, as it was understood in ancient times:

Baal, or Baʿal, is a term that means "owner" or "lord" in ancient Semitic languages, and it was often used to refer to gods in the region, particularly as a title for deities associated with fertility and storms. The word can also imply rulership or dominion over something.

In order to understand Yah's True intent here, we must refer to the Torah of Yah. What does the Torah define as Marriage.

The Bible outlines marriage laws emphasizing that marriage is a sacred union established by Elohim between one man and one woman. It also includes guidelines on divorce, stating that divorce is permissible only in cases of sexual immorality (or idolatry).

Genesis 2:24: [NASB]
For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.

Leviticus 18:22:
You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.

Romans 1:26:
For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,
Romans 1:27:
and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.

Truly, it is an abomination for a male to lie with a male, and likewise a woman with another woman.

ba'al does not mean husband because that would mean that Yahuah married Men, That is in direct violation to the Torah, and Yahuah (and our Messiah alike), Establish and Do the Torah, They Do Not Break the Torah. therefore, the word baal can only be defined as deity.

ba'al = deity

And there is no deity over Yahuah, our Elohim.

Here's Another case in point: Let's get the proper translation of Hosea 2:16.

Hosea 2:16 [NASB]
“It will come about in that day,” declares the Lord, “That you will call Me Ishi And will no longer call Me Baali.

Baali Definition = Yahuah

Therefore Hosea 2:16 should say:

Hosea 2:16
“It will come about in that day,” declares Yahuah, “That you will call Me man And will no longer call Me Yahuah.

In conclusion, as we consider Hosea 2:16, we will no longer call Yahuah our Elohim, because we will all be Elohim. Are we equal? of course not, there is an hierarchy in the heavens. Yah is the Highest of the High. And Yahusha is the Highest of High's, High Priest. There is none higher, and at that point, we will have been changed from mortal to immortal beings. We will have put off the perishable, and put on the imperishable, per 1Corinthians 15:53.

I Corinthians 15:53:
For this perishable must put on the imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality.

Also please consider that we were made in His image according to Genesis 1:27.

Genesis 1:27:
God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

In addition, we believe through study, that the word "Husband" has been placed where it was, out of context, as we discovered. Could it have been placed there in an effort to lead us astray? Possibly. Remember, Yah will not break His own Torah. Please take time to Study The Torah of our Elohim. You will find many words that have been twisted, to the demise of the persons that Twisted them. Therefore, backing up to Jeremiah 31:31-34, in context, it should read as follows.

Jeremiah 31:31-34
31 “See, the days are coming,” declares Yahuah, “when I shall make a new Covenant with the house of Yisra’ĕl and with the house of Yahuḏah,
32 not like the Covenant I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Mitsrayim, My Covenant which they broke, though I was a ba'al, (deity) to them,” declares Yahuah.
33 “For this is the Covenant I shall make with the house of Yisra’ĕl after those days, declares Yahuah: I shall put My Torah in their inward parts, and write it on their hearts. And I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.
34 “And no longer shall they teach, each one his neighbour, and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know Yahuah,’ for they shall all know Me, from the least of
them to the greatest of them,” declares Yahuah. “For I shall forgive their wickedness, and remember their sin no more.”

We also want you to remember that the New Covenant, will not be a reality until we are resurrected into the Kingdom of Yahuah our Elohim, with Yahusha our Messiah, as our High Priest. This is evidenced by the fact that we are all still NOT in one mind an accord with our Knowledge of the Torah of our Elohim, Yahuah.

It is not Yahuah that makes it difficult to understand the Written Word, it is Man's Twisted Interpretation into their perspective languages that makes the Word confusing. Also the fact that Man has decided for us, what is and is not canon. We were warned of this in 1 Enoch 104:10-13

1 Enoch 104:10-13
10 And now I know this mystery, that sinners will change and pervert the Words of righteousness in many ways, and will speak wicked words, and lie, and practice great deceits, and write books concerning their words.
11 But when they write down truthfully all my words in their languages, and do not change or diminish ought from my words but write them all down truthfully - all that I first witnessed concerning them.
12 Then, I know another mystery, that books will be given to the righteous and the wise to become a cause of joy and uprightness and much wisdom.
13 “And to them shall the books be given, and they shall believe in them and rejoice over them, and then all the righteous who have learned from them - all the paths of uprightness - shall be recompensed.”

It has become apparent to us, through study, that this Perfect Scripture will not be given out until after the first resurrection.

We hope and pray that this has been an encouragement to you in your studies as well. May the Blessings of Yahuah our Elohim, and Yahusha our Messiah be over you.

Beyond The Purple Cloth

🌿 Reflecting on Easter and the Deeper Truth of Passover

Growing up, Easter was pure magic for me. I still remember those Sunday morning church services in our sanctuary: the large cross at the front draped in a satin purple cloth, my grandfather Richard Emmons standing in the balcony above, playing his trumpet. The notes would echo through the huge chamber like a heavenly call, and as he played that triumphant tune, the purple cloth would slowly rise and float off the cross, revealing the symbol of resurrection. It was emotional, beautiful, full of wonder.

After service, we’d hunt for brightly colored eggs hidden around the church yard, get huge chocolate bunnies to take home, and discover Easter baskets overflowing with treats left by the “Easter Bunny.” I even remember dreaming as a kid (around 7 or 8 yrs old) about a giant Easter Bunny hopping in our front yard! Those traditions felt joyful and innocent, and I cherish the family memories tied to them.

But as I’ve grown older, now in my 60’s, and spent time really studying the Scriptures, my eyes have opened to something deeper and more profound.

What we call “Easter” today isn’t exactly what the Bible describes for the resurrection of our Savior, Yahusha/Yahshua/Jesus.

He died during Passover—the biblical feast YAH commanded forever in Exodus 12 (TS2009). A perfect, unblemished lamb was slain, its blood applied so death would pass over obedient homes. That deliverance from Egypt was a shadow pointing to the greater redemption through Messiah.

Yahusha gathered His disciples for the Passover meal (Matthew 26), broke bread and shared wine, saying, “This is My body… This is My blood of the renewed covenant.” Then, as our perfect Passover Lamb, He was sacrificed, right in line with the timing of the Temple lambs; so we could be set free from sin and death.

As 1 Corinthians 5:7 (TS2009) beautifully puts it: “For indeed Messiah, our Pĕsaḥ (Passover), was sacrificed for us.”

Passover isn’t “Jewish”; it’s one of YAH’s Appointed Feasts (moedim), a bridge directly to the resurrection.

One thing that stood out to me is the timing. Scripture says Yahusha would be “three days and three nights in the heart of the earth,” like Jonah in the fish (Matthew 12:40). Yet the common Good Friday to Easter Sunday timeline doesn’t add up to three full days and three full nights.

Many believers now see His crucifixion aligning more closely with the Passover preparation, leading to resurrection at the end of the weekly Sabbath; fulfilling the sign exactly.

These man-made additions, like colored eggs, the Easter Bunny, and even the name “Easter” itself, have roots in ancient spring festivals and fertility symbols, not in Scripture. They’re traditions of men, and the Word warns us about elevating them above YAH’s commands.

In Mark 7:6-9 (TS2009), Yahusha quotes Isaiah: “This people respect Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. And in vain do they worship Me, teaching as teachings the commands of men.” He adds, “For laying aside the command of Elohim, you hold fast the tradition of men… Well do you set aside the command of Elohim, in order to guard your tradition.”

Colossians 2:8 echoes: “See to it that no one makes a prey of you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men… and not according to Messiah.”

I’m not sharing this to judge or take away anyone’s joy, I participated in all those Easter traditions for decades, and they meant a lot in my family. But now I see how much richer it is to focus on what YAH actually appointed: remembering Passover in the name of our Messiah, the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world.

This has also led me to reflect humbly on traditions in Judaism as well. Just as many Christian practices add elements not found in Scripture, rabbinic Judaism includes oral traditions and interpretations (like those in the Talmud) that go beyond the written Torah YAH gave.

Both Christianity and Judaism, in their organized forms, have layered on man-made customs over time.

In the end, what we truly need is simply YAH’s Word, His pure instructions as revealed in Scripture and to walk in His ways as best we understand them through the whole counsel of the Bible, led by His Spirit.

It’s a return to the simple, direct relationship with YAH that Messiah modeled and fulfilled.

YAH desires worship in spirit and in truth (John 4:24). Truth doesn’t need fables or added symbols; it stands strong on its own.

What’s more important to pass on to our children: man-made stories, or the deep, eternal meaning of YAH’s deliverance through His Son?

This season, I’m humbly choosing to honor the biblical Passover and resurrection as Scripture presents it. It’s been life-changing for me, and I pray it encourages you to search the Word for yourself.

What a beautiful bridge between the Old and Renewed Covenant!

Much love, and may we all grow closer to YAH’s truth. 🌿

Oh Watch Therefore

The Parable of the Ten Virgins (Matt 25:1-13)

Yahshua/Jesus tells a story of ten maidens waiting for the Bridegroom to arrive for the wedding feast.

Five were wise, they brought extra oil for their lamps. Five were foolish, they didn’t prepare.

The Bridegroom is Yahshua the Messiah, returning unexpectedly.

The ten virgins/maidens are those (you and me/us) professing faith, waiting for His coming. (believers, a remnant of Israel; not the bride herself).

Lamps are light of the Torah / Word of Elohim (Psalm 119:105 – “Your word is a lamp to my feet”).

Oil is the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit), the anointing that keeps our light burning strong through the long wait.

The delay is the time between Yahshua’s first coming and His return; we all grow weary, but preparation matters!

Behold, the Bridegroom comes!” (Echoes the Shofar of Yom Teruah, signaling resurrection & ingathering)

The wedding feast is the Marriage Supper of the Lamb and only the ready enter; the door shuts forever.

The foolish begged for oil, but you can’t borrow someone else’s relationship with the Ruach. While they went to buy, (it also cannot be bought) the Bridegroom came and the wise went in, and the door was shut.

Yahshua’s words hit hard: “I do not know you.”

We need a genuine, Spirit-filled walk.

“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father also does seek such to worship Him. Elohim is Spirit, and those who worship Him need to worship in spirit and truth.”

TS2009 (Yoḥanan/John 4:23–24)

“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Adam comes.” (Matt. 25:13 TS2009)

Be filled with the Ruach daily. Walk in Torah obedience. Stay alert!

The Bridegroom is coming…will your lamp still be burning bright?

Choose Life

Exo 20:5 – יהוה warns against idolatry: ‘I am a jealous Ěl, visiting (פָּקַד / pâqad) the crookedness of the fathers on the children to the 3rd & 4th generations of those who hate Me.’

‘Visiting’ isn’t just punishment…it means to oversee, care for, attend to, even search out.

YAH isn’t distant; He’s zealous for us, visiting to see if we’ve awakened to the crookedness! He cares, calls, and confronts so we can repent and break the cycle.

Ezekiel 18 makes it clear: He doesn’t punish kids for parents’ sins if they turn to righteousness. Each stands on their own choices.

It’s a wake-up call against idolatry… but also an invitation to restoration and LIFE 🙌🕊️

Calendar Review

A story of dedication and love for YAH 🕊️

In the quiet hills of a midwestern town, there lives a man named Brother Jackie Smith, a soul whose very presence radiated the gentle light of kindness and thoughtfulness. He is a Yahuah-fearing man, one who walks humbly in the shadow of the Almighty, his heart attuned to the whispers of divine wisdom.

Each day in quiet communion, poring over ancient scrolls and sacred texts, his eyes kindled with the fire of discovery. Brother Jackie believes that knowledge is not a treasure to be hoarded but a gift to be shared freely with his brothers and sisters in faith.

What sets Brother Jackie apart is his unwavering dedication to uncovering the rhythms of creation as ordained by Yahuah. He had long sensed a disconnect in the world’s hurried calendars, a misalignment with the heavenly order. Driven by a deep reverence, he devoted countless prayerful hours to crafting a calendar that mirrored the divine blueprint.

This is no ordinary timekeeper; it is the Zadok Calendar, drawn meticulously from the profound insights of the Book of Jubilees, the visions of Enoch, the priestly traditions of Zadok, the ancient Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS), and the Luminary Priestly Calendar. With careful notation, he has included the priestly appointments, ensuring each cycle honored the sacred duties of service in Yahuah’s temple.

But Brother Jackie’s vision extends beyond the earthly; he wove in the celestial wonders of the Mazzaroth, the starry constellations that tell stories of redemption and prophecy, because the heavens themselves are Yahuah’s storyboard.

Accompanying the calendar is a thoughtful legend, a key that references supporting scriptures and historical echoes, illuminating how these elements intertwine like threads in a divine tapestry.

It is, in truth, Yahuah’s timepiece…a wondrous instrument that synchronizes the soul with the Creator’s eternal clock.

This calendar is more than a mere record of days; it is an educational masterpiece, laying out Yahuah’s Feasts and appointed times with clarity and reverence. From the solemn observance of Passover to the joyous trumpets of Yom Teruah (Day of Trumpets), to Yom Kippur, to the dwelling in booths during Tabernacles/Sukkot, each moed (appointed time), as well as the Festivals of Oil, Wood, and Wine, marked not just by dates but by their deeper referenced spiritual significance.

Brother Jackie’s work reveals how these holy convocations align with the solar cycles, the priestly courses, and the Mazzaroth’s guiding lights, offering a roadmap to live in harmony with Yahuah’s will.

Through this labor of love, Brother Jackie brings our community closer to our Heavenly Father. The calendar unveils layers of Yahuah’s plan for the kingdom to come… a future of restoration, where the righteous would dwell in eternal light. It will keep hearts focused amid the chaos of the world, reminding all who follow it that time is not random but purposeful; a canvas for applying His Word. By syncing daily life with these divine appointments, believers will find a profound unity: scripture and season, prophecy and practice, all coming together in a beautiful symphony.

Without Brother Jackie’s selfless effort, his kindness in sharing, his thoughtfulness in synthesis, his fear of YAH guiding every note, such clarity might have remained hidden.

Today, those who hold his calendar walk with greater confidence, their steps aligned with the stars and the Spirit. We are profoundly grateful for this special brother, whose work echoes the call to watch and pray, drawing us ever nearer to the throne of grace.

In closing:

Brother Jackie Smith’s Zadok Calendar is a labor of love that synchronizes the soul with Yahuah’s eternal clock. This meticulously crafted calendar is based on the Book of Jubilees, Enoch, Zadok’s priestly traditions, and the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Key Features:

• Aligns with heavenly order and solar cycles

• Includes priestly appointments and Mazzaroth constellations

• Highlights Yahuah’s Feasts and appointed times

• Offers a roadmap to live in harmony with Yahuah’s will

A Reflection of Yahuah’s Heart

Brother Jackie’s work reveals Yahuah’s plan for the kingdom to come, reminding us that time is purposeful and not random. By syncing daily life with these divine appointments, believers find unity in scripture, season, prophecy, and practice.

A Labor of Love

We’re grateful for Brother Jackie’s selfless effort, kindness, and thoughtfulness. His calendar draws us nearer to the throne of grace, reflecting Yahuah’s faithfulness and kindness.

HalleluYAH 🙌 🙏🕊️
