God has His own calendar
We are now in the 12th Month of God, Adar, and the 29th day
Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory, from the 1500’s
Today is March 5th, 2011
The name of March comes from ancient Rome, when March was the first
month of the year and named Martius after Mars, the Roman god of war.

I explain the Sabbath each week
This is how simple it is:
The Sabbath is the 4th Commandment of the covenant given to us at Mount Sinai in the 3rd month, Sivan
Exod. 20 [8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Ex. 20 [8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
æëø Remember
zâkar - zaw-kar' - A primitive root; properly to mark (so as to be recognized), that is, to remember; by implication to mention; make mention of, be mindful, recount, record (-er), remember, make to be remembered, bring (call, come, keep, put) to (in) remembrance, still, think on, well.
[9] Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
[10] But the seventh day is the Sabbath of Yehovah thy God:
-----
Rev.1 [10] I was in the Spirit on Yehovah's Day - (The Sabbath Exod. 20:10)
-----
Back to verse 10
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
[11]
For in six days Yehovah
made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh
day: wherefore Yehovah
blessed the sabbath
day, and hallowed it.
--------
Isa. 58 [13] If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of Yehovah, honourable; and shalt honour him,
1 - not doing thine own ways,
2 - nor finding thine own pleasure,
3 - nor speaking thine own words:
[14] Then shalt thou delight thyself in Yehovah; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of Yehovah hath spoken it.
------------
Lev. 23 [3] Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, an "holy convocation"; ye shall do no work therein: it is the Sabbath of Yehovah in all your dwellings.
Dwelling îåùÑá
môshâv - seat, assembly, dwelling-place, dwelling, your situation, location, (at) time of dwelling
------------
The Sabbath is a "holy convocation"
î÷øà miqra: convocation, convoking, reading, a calling together, sacred assembly, something called out, that is, a public meeting (the act, the persons, or the place); also a rehearsal
÷ãùÑ kodesh: a sacred place or thing; consecrated, dedicated, hallowed, holiness, saint, sanctuary, apartness, sacredness, separateness, apartness, sacredness, holiness
------------
Buying and selling is evil on the Sabbath
Neh. 13 [16] There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
[17] Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, What evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the Sabbath day?

Today's
Topic:
Review
of Passover
One
law, one ordinance for all!
Exod.12
[1]
And Yehovah spake
unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
[2] This
month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of
the year to you.
[3] Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel,
saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb,
according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:
[4] And
if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his
house take it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his
eating shall make your count for the lamb.
[5] Your lamb shall be
without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep,
or from the goats:
[6] And
ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole
assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the
evening.
[7] And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the
two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat
it.
[8] And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire,
and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.
[9] Eat
not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with
his legs, and with the purtenance
thereof.
[10] And ye shall let nothing of it remain until the morning;
and that which remaineth of it until the
morning ye shall burn with fire.
[11] And thus shall ye eat it; with
your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye
shall eat it in haste: it is Yehovah's passover.
[12]
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 Yehovah.
[13] And
the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I
see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to
destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.
[14] And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye
shall keep it a feast to Yehovah throughout your
generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for
ever.
[15]
Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; even the first day ye shall put away
leaven out of your houses: for whosoever eateth
leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut
off from Israel.
2 extra
Sabbaths
[16]
And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation,
and in the seventh day there shall be an holy
convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done
of you.
[17]
And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day
have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an
ordinance for
ever.
[18]
In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat
unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at
even.
[19]
Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for
whosoever eateth that which is
leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel,
whether he be a stranger, or born in the land.
[20] Ye shall eat nothing
leavened; in all your habitations shall ye eat unleavened
bread.
[21]
Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and
take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.
[22]
And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the
bason, and strike the
lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason;
and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the
morning.
[23] For Yehovah will pass through
to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the
lintel, and on the two side posts, Yehovah will pass over the
door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite
you.
[24] And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and
to thy sons for
ever.
[25] And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land
which Yehovah will give you,
according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service.
[26]
And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this
service?
[27] That ye shall say, It
is the sacrifice of Yehovah's passover, who passed over
the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and
delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and
worshipped.
[28] And the children of Israel went away, and did as
Yehovah had commanded Moses
and Aaron, so did they.
[29] And it came to pass, that at midnight
Yehovah smote all the
firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharoah that sat on his
throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the
firstborn of cattle.
[30] 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.
[31] 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 Yehovah,
as ye have said.
[32] Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have
said, and be gone; and bless me also.
[33] 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.
[34] And the people took their dough before it was leavened,
their kneadingtroughs being bound
up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
[35] And the children of
Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians
jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:
[36] And
Yehovah gave the people
favour in the sight of the
Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they
spoiled the Egyptians.
[37] And the children of Israel journeyed from
Rameses to Succoth, about
six hundred thousand on foot that were men, beside children.
[38] And
a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much
cattle.
[39] And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they
brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust
out of Egypt, and could not tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any
victual.
[40] Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt
in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
[41] 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 Yehovah went out from the
land of Egypt.
[42] It is a night to be much observed unto Yehovah
for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of Yehovah
to be observed of all the children of Israel in their
generations.
[43]
And Yehovah said unto Moses and
Aaron,
This
is the ordinance of the passover:
There shall no stranger eat
thereof:
[44]
But every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised
him, then shall he eat thereof.
[45] A foreigner and an
hired servant shall not eat thereof.
[46]
In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought
of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone
thereof.
[47]
All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.
[48]
And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to Yehovah,
let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep
it;
and
he shall be as one that is born in the land: for
no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
[49]
One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the
stranger that sojourneth among
you.
[50]
Thus did all the children of Israel; as Yehovah commanded Moses and
Aaron, so did they.
[51] And it came to pass the selfsame day,
that Yehovah did bring the
children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their
armies.
Num.9
[1]
And Yehovah spake
unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year
after they were come out of the land of Egypt, saying,
[2] Let
the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed
season.
[3] In the fourteenth day of this month, at even, ye shall
keep it in his appointed season: according to all the rites of it, and according
to all the ceremonies thereof, shall ye keep it.
[4] And Moses spake
unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
[5]
And they kept the passover on the
fourteenth day of the first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according
to all that Yehovah commanded Moses, so
did the children of Israel.
[6]
And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man,
that they could not keep the passover on that day: and
they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:
[7] And
those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body of a man: wherefore are
we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of Yehovah in his appointed
season among the children of Israel?
[8] And Moses said unto them,
Stand
still, and I will hear what Yehovah will command
concerning you.
[9]
And Yehovah spake
unto Moses, saying,
[10]
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your
posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar
off, yet he shall keep the passover unto Yehovah.
[11]
The fourteenth day of the second month at
even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter
herbs.
[12] They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break
any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall
keep it.
[13]
But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the
passover, even the same
soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he brought not the offering
of Yehovah in his appointed
season, that man shall bear his sin.
[14]
And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto Yehovah;
according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to
the manner thereof, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the
stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
---------------------
Let’s go
over - Things "not
to do" at a Passover Seder
The
Passover Seder done by some Messianics and Judaism is
not scriptural.
Some people
go to 2 or 3 Passover Seders –
wrong
This not a
game, don’t do Passover with people that don’t keep the
commandments
"The Cup" – Not 4 or 5
cups - scripture never says "the
cups"
There is only "one cup" of the New Testament in Yeshua's
Blood.
Tit.1 [14] Not giving heed to
Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn
from the truth.
There are no Rabbis in
TaNaKh
Rabbis made
up the "four expressions" - then
“Four” Cups” at the Pesach Seder because they reject
the Gospels and letters.
Rabbis don't recognize
Yeshua the Messiah as "Our
Passover".
This is why
we tell people not to follow Rabbis and Judaism.
They have
all rejected the Hebrew Scriptures about Messiah
Rabbis
always "add and diminish" from God's Word.
Deut.4[ 2] Ye shall
not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from
it, that ye may keep the commandments of Yehovah your God which I
command you.
Deut.12[ 32] What thing
soever I command you,
observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor
diminish from it.
Prov.30[ 6] Add thou
not unto his words , lest he reprove thee, and
thou be found a liar.
---------
Why not do
"Seven?
I see "SEVEN"
[2] And God spake
unto Moses, and said unto him, I am Yehovah:
[3] And
I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God
Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.
[4] And
I have also established my covenant with them
, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their
pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers.
[5] And I have also heard
the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage;
and I have remembered my covenant
.
Verse
[6] Wherefore say unto
the children of Israel, I am Yehovah, and
2
-
I will rid you out of their bondage, and
3 - I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great
judgments:
6
-
[8] And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning the
which I did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and
7
-
I will give it you for a heritage: I am
Yehovah
We don't
believe these men below are great Torah scholars.
2 Cor.
10[
12] For we dare not make
ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some "that commend
themselves:"
"but they measuring
themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not
wise".
In the "11th
to 16th centuries"
***The Chumash, page 319 - 6-7
These "four
stages" are the basis for the rabbinic requirement
of the Four Cups at the Pesach Seder.
The
expressions, as explained by Rabbi Bachya
.
Rabbi Bachaya Ibn
Pakuda - (Eleventh Century)
The "four
expressions"
of
redemption (represented at the Passover Seder by the
"Four Cups of wine") relate to the four aspects of our liberation
from Egypt:
I will bring
you out
1 Cor. 5
[7] Purge out therefore
the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Messiah / Messiah our Passover is sacrificed for
us:
We don't
believe this man below is a great Torah scholar. He missed the Messiah in the
Hebrew Scriptures.
Nachmanides had a "strong mystical bent". His biblical commentaries
are the first ones to incorporate "the mystical
teachings".
We don't
believe this man below is a great Torah scholar. He missed the Messiah in the
Hebrew Scriptures.
**Still, all his credentials does not give him authority nor permission to add and
diminish from the Word of God which he did in his commentaries.
------------
Now the
Truth from Scripture:
One Blood, cup - One
Bread
Matt.26
[26] And as they
were eating, Yeshua took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and
gave it to the disciples, and said, Take,
eat; this is my body.[27] And he took "the
cup", and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of "it";[28] For this is my
blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of
sins.[29] But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of
the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's
kingdom.
Mark 14:
[22] And as
they did eat, Yeshua took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat:
this is my body.[23] And he took "the
cup", and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of "it".[24] And he said unto them,
This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.[25] Verily
I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day
that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.[26] And when they had sung
an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
Luke :22
[15] And he said
unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I
suffer:[16] For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it
be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
[17] And he took "the cup", and gave thanks, and said, Take this,
and divide it among yourselves:
[18] For
I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of
God shall come.
[19] And he took bread, and gave thanks, and
brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for
you: this do in remembrance of me.[20] Likewise also "the cup" after
supper, saying,
"This cup" is the new
testament in my blood, which is shed for
you.
1 Cor. 10
[16] "The cup" of blessing which we bless, is it not the
communion of the blood of Messiah? The bread
which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Messiah /
Messiah? [17] For we being many are one
bread, and one body: for we
are all partakers of that one
bread.
1 Cor. 11
[23] For I have
received of Yehovah – Messiah Yeshua
that which also I delivered unto you, That Lord Yeshua the same night in
which he was betrayed took bread:[24] And when he had given thanks, he
brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you:
this do in remembrance of me.[25] After the same manner also he took
"the cup", when he had supped, saying,
"This cup" is the
new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in
remembrance of me.[26] For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink
"this cup", ye do shew
Yeshua's death till he
come.[27] Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink "this cup" of Yehovah, unworthily, shall
be guilty of the body and blood of Yeshua.[28] But let
a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of "that cup".[29] For he that eateth
and drinketh unworthily, eateth
and drinketh damnation to
himself, not discerning Yehovah Yeshua's
body.[30] For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many
sleep.[31] For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be
judged.[32] But when we are judged, we are chastened of Yehovah,
that we should not be condemned with the world.

"Next thing
not to do"
Don't leave
the door open for Elijah or set a cup of wine for
him
Elijah /
Elias // John The
Baptist
Why at
Passover Seders are people leaving the door open and setting a cup of wine for
Elijah to come?
Yeshua said He IS
come!!!
Who did God
say He would send?

the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the
earth with a curse.
Luke
1
[1]
Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of
those things which are most surely believed among us,
[2] Even as they
delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and
ministers of the word;
[3] It seemed good to me also, having had
perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in
order, most excellent Theophilus,
[4]
That thou mightest know the certainty
of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
[5] There was in
the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the
course of Abia: and his wife was of
the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
[6] And they were
both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of
Yehovah
blameless.
[7] And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was
barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
[8] And it came
to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of
his course,
[9]
According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when
he went into the temple of Yehovah.
[10] And
the whole multitude of the people
were praying without at the time of incense.
[11]
And there appeared unto him an angel of Yehovah standing on the
right side of the altar of incense.
[12] And when Zacharias saw him,
he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
[13] But the angel said unto
him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall
bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name
John.
[14] And thou shalt have joy and
gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
[15] For he shall be great in the sight of Yehovah,
and shall drink neither wine nor strong
drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy
Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
[16] And
many of the children of Israel shall he turn to Yehovah their
God.
[17] And he (John) shall go before him
(Messiah) in
the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the
hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the
just; to make ready a people prepared for Yehovah. (Malachi 4:5 above)

What Yehsua
said about John The
Baptist:
Matt. 11:9
But what went ye out
for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you,
and more than a prophet.
[10] For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send
my messenger before thy face, which shall
prepare thy way before thee. (Mal. 3:1 and
4:5)
[11] Verily
I say unto you, Among them that are
born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist:
notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
[12] And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the
violent take it by force. [13] For all the prophets and the law prophesied until
John. [14] And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was
for to come. (Mal. 3:1 and
4:5)
[15] He that
hath ears to hear let him hear.
------------
Matt.17[10] And his disciples asked
him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias
must first come?
[11] And Yeshua
answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first
come, and restore all things.
[12] But I
say unto you, that Elias is come already,
and they knew him not, but have done unto him
whatsoever they listed.
Likewise
shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
[13] Then
the disciples understood that he spake unto them of
John the
Baptist.
------------
Mark 9[11]
And they asked him, saying,
Why say the scribes that Elias must first
come?
[12] And he
answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first,
and restoreth all
things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer
many things, and be set at nought. [13] But I say unto
you, that Elias is indeed come, and they
have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of
him.

"Next thing
not to do"
Where does
it say to have special Passover plates and silverware? (Someone is making allot of
money)
"Next things
not to do"
Tell me,
what's with the egg (sounds like pagan Easter eggs), shank bone that they have
on a plate?
Why not
have what the
Scriptures say? Is this to
easy?
Exod.
12 [8] And they shall eat
the flesh in that night, roast (lamb) with fire, and unleavened bread; and with
bitter herbs they shall eat it.
We do this
day as a memorial:
Exod.
12 [14] And this day shall
be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep
it a feast to Yehovah throughout your
generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for
ever.
"Next thing
not to do"
Don’t charge
people money to attend a Seder. Where did they get that
from?
This makes
me sad. What about the people who can't afford to
attend?
This is not
a game........
"Next thing
not to do"
Many people
attend more then one seder.
Some boast
of 2 or more they attended. Passover is on a specific day, not
days.
This is all adding to
the Word of God.
------------
"Next thing
not to do"
It is not
wise to tell God what to do or how to do it
In stanza
three Dayanu means, "It would
have sufficed"-in other words: "Enough already!" is an unscriptural traditional
song.
Read below:
If He had merely rescued
us from Egypt, but had not punished the Egyptians. DAYENU
If He had merely
punished the Egyptians, but had not destroyed their
gods. DAYENU
If He had merely
destroyed their gods, but had not slain their first
born. DAYENU
If He had
merely slain their first born, but had not given us their property. DAYENU
If He had merely given
us their property, but had not split the sea for us. DAYENU
If He had merely split
the sea for us, but had not brought us through on dry
ground. DAYENU
If He had
merely brought us through on dry ground, but had not drowned our oppressors.
DAYENU
If He had merely drowned
our oppressors, but had not supplied us in the desert for forty
years. DAYENU
If He had merely
supplied us in the desert for forty years, but had not fed us with
manna. DAYENU
If He had merely fed us
with manna, but had not given us the Shabbat. DAYENU
If He had merely given
us the Shabbat, but had not brought us to Mount Sinai. DAYENU
If He had merely brought
us to Mount Sinai, but had not given us the Torah. DAYENU
If He had merely given
us the Torah, but had not brought us to the land of
Israel. DAYENU
If He had merely brought
us to the land of Israel, but had not built us the
Temple. DAYENU
We would have
been satisfied, it would have been enough.
This sounds
terrible to me

"Next thing
not to do"
afikoman?
Manischewitz
matzahs?
Rabbi Dov Behr
Manischewitz, was born in Lithuania
and immigrated to Cincinnati in 1886. He
started out by supplying matzah to newly arrived Jewish
immigrants who were heading west to seek a new and better life in America. It
was very important to Rabbi Manischewitz that every
Jew, even those in transit, be provided with
matzah at
Passover.
Remember:
Try not to
use Rabbi Dov Behr Manischewitz's matzah
at Passover. (even though they are
good other times)
Moses did
not use Rabbi Dov Behr Manischewitz's matzah
at Passover - he was not born yet!
Yeshua did not use Rabbi Dov Behr
Manischewitz's matzah
at Passover - he was not born yet!
Yeshua is not a Rabbi Dov Behr
Manischewitz's matzah.
(so many stories made up about
that)
We make
unleavened bread, that simple.
------------
NEAR THE
BEGINNING of a Passover Seder, a piece of matzah is broken in
half.
The larger
of the two pieces is hidden away until the end of the
meal.
When it is
brought back from concealment it is shared by everyone at the table as their
final morsel. This broken and hidden piece of matzah is called the afikoman.
All this
ceremony and the name afikoman are shrouded in
mystery.
None of it
is explained by the Haggadah
Nor is it
mentioned in Scripture
The term
appears first in the Mishnah (tractate Pesahim
10:8), the earliest collection
of rabbinic legal rulings, codified around 200 AD. Though afikoman
is written in Hebrew letters in rabbinic texts, it is actually a Greek word.
Jewish
historians disagree why a Greek term entered
the Passover liturgical tradition or what it means. As one of them said, "It is
of uncertain etymology." Some think it is derived from epikomoi ("dessert") or
from epi komon (a call for after
dinner pastime, entertainment), or from epikomion ("festal
song").
Over the
centuries, its meaning has been lost or forgotten.

Matt.
15[2] Why do thy disciples transgress
the tradition of the elders? for they wash not
their hands when they eat bread. [3] But he answered and said unto them,
Why do ye
also transgress the commandment of God by your
tradition?
Mark
7[1] Then came
together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from
Jerusalem.
[2] And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with
defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found
fault.
[3] For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their
hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.
[4] And when
they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things
there be, which they have
received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of
tables.
[5] Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy
disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with
unwashen
hands?
[6] He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of
you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their
lips, but their heart is far from me.
[7] Howbeit in vain do they
worship me, teaching for doctines the commandments
of men.
[8] For
laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the
washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye
do.
[9] And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment
of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
[13] Making
the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered:
and many such like things do ye.
Please
follow scripture, not made up traditions.
Let loose
of Gentile and Jewish traditions that change the Word of
God
Shabbat
Shalom
