שַׁבָּת שָׁלוֹם
Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s
Today is February 2, 2019 - in the 21 Century
February -- month of Februa
Middle English Februarius
Latin Februarius "of Februa"
Latin Februa(s) "Februa" + -arius
"ary (pertaining to)"
Latin Februarius mensis "month of Februa"
Latin dies februatus
"day of purification"
Februarius had 28 days, until circa 450 BC when it had 23 or 24 days on some of
every second year, until Julius when it had 29 days on every fourth year and 28
days otherwise.
Februa is the Roman festival of purification, held on February fifteenth. It
is possibly of Sabine
origin.
The Sabines - Latin: Sabini; Ancient
Greek: Σαβῖνοι
Sabĩnoi;
Italian: Sabini, all were an Italic people that lived in the central
Apennine Mountains of ancient Italy, also inhabiting Latium north of the Anio before the founding of Rome.
The Sabines divided into two
populations just after the founding of Rome, which is described by Roman
legend. The division, however it came about, is not legendary. The population
closer to Rome transplanted itself to the new city and united with the
preexisting citizenry, beginning a new heritage that descended from the Sabines but was also Latinized.
The second population remained a mountain tribal state, coming finally to war
against Rome for its independence along with all the other Italic tribes. After
losing, it became assimilated into the Roman Republic.
Yehovah has His own calendar:
We are now in Sh'vat / Shevat, the 11 month - the 26th day
Zech.1 [7] Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sebat / Shevat …

Messiah Yeshua
is God in the flesh
No
human can die for the sins of another; a human being can not be a sacrifice for
anything…
No person can die for you
Pss.49 [7] None
of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom
for him:
Mic.6 [7] Will Yehovah be
pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall
I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of
my soul?
[8] He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
2Chr.25 [4] But he slew
not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses,
where Yehovah
commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall
the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.
Deut.24[16] The fathers shall not be put to
death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the
fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.[31] And
Moses returned unto Yehovah, and said,
Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
[32] Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I
pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
[33]
And Yehovah
said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him
will I blot out of my book.
------------------------------------------
Who is
the first and the last?
Isa.41 [4] Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I Yehovah, the first, and with the last; I am he.
Isa.48 [12] Hearken unto me, O
Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
Rev.1 [17]
And
when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me,
saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Rev.1 [4] John to the seven
churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and
peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from
the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
[8] I
am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith
the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. [11]
Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, and, What thou seest,
write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia;
unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto
Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
[16] I Yeshua
have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the
root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
Rev.21 [6] And
he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life
freely.
Rev.22 [13] I Yeshua
am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

studies

The
Word is God
John.1 [1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God
[13] Which
were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man,
but of God.
[14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of
the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John
20:[25] The other disciples
therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except
I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the
print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.
[26] And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas
with them: then came Yeshua, the doors
being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be
unto you.
[27] Then saith he to Thomas, reach hither thy
finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my
side: and be not faithless, but believing.
[28]
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.[29] Yeshua saith
unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are
they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
John.10 [30]
I, Yeshua
and my Father are one
John.5 [22] For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son, the Word, Yeshua
Phil
2.[6] Messiah, being in the
form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
[7] But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant,
and was made in the likeness of men:[8] And being found in fashion as a
man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the
cross.
Eph.
1:[20] … The Father raised Yeshua from the
dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,[21] Far above all principality, and
power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this
world, but also in that which is to come:[22] And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the
head over all things to the church,[23]
Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth
all in all.
Eph.
3: [9]
And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the
beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Yeshua
the Messiah:[10]
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places
might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,[11] According
to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Messiah Yeshua
our Lord…
Messiah is God in the flesh and died for our sins
Isa.53 [5] But Messiah was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. [8] He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. [12] Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and Messiah bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Rom.5 [6] For
when we were yet without strength, in due time Messiah died for the ungodly.
[8] But God commendeth his love
toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Messiah died for us.
1Cor.15 [3] For I delivered unto
you first of all that which I also received, how that Messiah died for our
sins according to the scriptures…
Gal.1 [4] Messiah gave himself
for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world,
according to the will of God and our Father…
1John.2 [2] And Messiah is the
propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of
the whole world.
1John.4 [10] Herein
is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be
the propitiation for our sins.
------
Messiah
is not just a man – He never sinned
1Pet.1 [19] But with the precious
blood of Messiah, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
2Cor.5 [21] For the Father hath
made Yeshua
to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the
righteousness of God in him.
Heb.4 [15] For we have not an high
priest Messiah - which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities;
but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
1Pet.2 [22] Messiah did no sin,
neither was guile found in his mouth:
1John.3 [5] And
ye know that Messiah was manifested to take away our sins; and in him Messiah
is no sin.

Who is the?
Stone of Israel אֶבֶן יִשְׂרָאֵל
Rock of Israel צוּר יִשְׂרָאֵל
Shepherd of Israel רֹעֵה יִשְׂרָאֵל
Holy One of Israel קְדוֹשׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל
Isa.44 [6] Thus
saith
Yehovah
the King of Israel, and his redeemer Yehovah of hosts; I
am the first, and I am the last; and beside Me there is no God.
[8] Fear ye not,
neither be
afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye
are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea,
there is no God, I know not any.
Gen.49 [22] Joseph is a
fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the
wall:
[23] The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated
him:
[24] But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made
strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from thence is the
shepherd, the stone of Israel
Pss.23 [1] Yehovah
is my shepherd;
I shall not want.[2]
He maketh
me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside
the still waters.
[3] He restoreth my soul: he leadeth
me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
[4] Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will
fear
no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
[5] Thou preparest a table before me in the
presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head
with oil; my cup runneth over.
[6] Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of Yehovah for
ever.
Pss.80 [1] Give ear, O
Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like
a flock; thou that dwellest between the
cherubims,
shine forth.
Isa.40 [9] O Zion, that
bringest
good tidings, get thee up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest
good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say
unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God!
[10] Behold, the Lord Yehovah will come
with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is
with him, and his work before him.[11] He shall feed his flock like a
shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his
bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young.
Jer.31 [10] Hear the
word of Yehovah,
O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel
will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.
Zech.13 [7] Awake, O
sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow,
saith
Yehovah
of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I
will turn mine hand upon the little ones.
Mark.14 [27] And Yeshua
saith
unto them, All
ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will
smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.
Ezek.37 [24] And
David (Messiah) my servant shall be king over
them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in
my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
Pss.89[1] I will sing of the
mercies of Yehovah
for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.
[2] For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever:
thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very
heavens.
[3] I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my
servant,
[4] Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build
up thy throne to all generations. Selah.
[35] Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
[36] His seed shall endure forever, and his throne as the sun before me.
Pss.132 [11] Yehovah
hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of
the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
Matt.25 [32] And
before Him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from
another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep
from the goats:
Matt.26 [31] Then
saith
Yeshua
unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is
written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be
scattered abroad.
John.10:[1] Verily, verily, I say
unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the
sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is
a thief and a robber.
[2] But he that entereth in by the
door is the shepherd of the sheep.
[3] To him the porter openeth; and the
sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own
sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
[4] And when he putteth forth his
own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow
him: for they know his voice.
[5] And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for
they know not the voice of strangers.
[6] This parable spake Yeshua
unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake
unto them.
[7] Then said Yeshua unto them
again, Verily,
verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
[8] All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep
did not hear them.
[9] I am the door: by me if any man enter
in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
[10] The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to
destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly.
[11] I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth
his life for the sheep.
[12] But he that is an hireling, and not
the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth
the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep,
and fleeth:
and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth
the sheep.
[13] The hireling fleeth, because he
is an
hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
[14] I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and
am known of mine.
[15] As the Father knoweth me, even so
know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
[16] And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I
must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and
one shepherd.
Heb.13 [20] Now the God
of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Yeshua,
that great shepherd of the sheep,
through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
1Pet.2 [25] For
ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
1Pet.5 [4] And
when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory
that fadeth
not away.
Messiah is the Rock and Saviour, thy Redeemer
2Sam.22 [3] The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
2Kgs.13 [5] (And Yehovah
gave Israel a saviour, so that they went out from
under the hand of the Syrians: and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents,
as beforetime.
Pss.106 [21] They
forgat
God their saviour,
which had done great things in Egypt;
Isa.19 [20] And it shall be for a sign
and for a witness unto Yehovah of hosts in
the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto Yehovah
because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour,
and a great one, and he shall deliver them.
Isa.43 [3] For I am Yehovah
thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave
Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. [11]
I, even I, am Yehovah; and beside me there is no saviour.
Isa.45 [15] Verily thou art a God
that hidest
thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour. [21] Tell ye,
and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared
this from ancient time? who hath told it
from that time? have not I Yehovah?
and
there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour;
there is none beside me.
Isa.49 [26] And I will feed them
that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken
with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I Yehovah
am thy Saviour
and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
Isa.60 [16] Thou shalt
also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the
breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I
Yehovah
am thy Saviour
and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
Isa.63 [8] For
he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was
their Saviour.
Jer.14 [8] O the hope of Israel,
the saviour
thereof in time of
trouble, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the
land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry
for a night?
Hos.13 [4] Yet I am Yehovah
thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt
know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.
Luke.1 [47] And
my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
Luke.2 [11] For
unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour,
which is Messiah the Lord.
John.4 [42] And
said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have
heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the
Messiah, the Saviour of the world.
Acts.5 [31] Him hath God exalted
with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour,
for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
Acts.13 [23] Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Yeshua…
Eph.5 [23] For
the husband is the head of the wife, even as Messiah is the head of the
church: and Messiah is the saviour of the body.
Phil.3 [20] For
our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour,
the Lord Yeshua
the Messiah:
1Tim.1 [1] Paul, an apostle
of Yeshua
the Messiah by the commandment of God our Saviour,
and Lord Yeshua
the Messiah, which is our hope;
1Tim.2 [3] For
this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
1Tim.4 [10] For
therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because
we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially
of those that believe.
2Tim.1 [10] But is now
made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Yeshua
the Messiah, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and
immortality to light through the gospel:
Tit.1 [3] But hath in
due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me
according to the commandment of God our Saviour;
[4] To Titus,
mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the
Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah
our Saviour.
Tit.2 [10] Not
purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they
may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all
things.
[13]
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our
Saviour
Yeshua
the Messiah;
Tit.3 [4] But after
that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward
man appeared…
[6]
Which he shed on us abundantly through Yeshua the
Messiah our Saviour;
2Pet.1 [1] Simon Peter,
a servant and an apostle of Yeshua the Messiah,
to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the
righteousness of God and our Saviour Yeshua
the Messiah…
[11] For
so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting
kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Yeshua
the Messiah.
2Pet.2 [20] For if
after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of
the Lord and Saviour Yeshua
the Messiah, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end
is worse with them than the beginning.
2Pet.3 [2] That
ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets,
and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour…
[18] But
grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour
Yeshua
the Messiah. To him be glory both now and for
ever. Amen.
1John.4 [14] And
we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour
of the world.
Jude.1 [25] To
the only wise God our Saviour, be
glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
H3467 ישׁע yasha - A primitive root; properly to be open,

salvation, save (-iour), get victory.
Yeshua is Messiah, God in the flesh created all things
Gen.49 [10] The
sceptre
shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until
Shiloh (Messiah) come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
Rev.4 [11] Thou art
worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour
and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they
are and were created.
1Pet.3 [22] Messiah,
Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and
authorities and powers being made subject unto Him.
Isa.9 [6] For
unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the
government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counseller,
The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Eph.3 [9] And to make
all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of
the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Yeshua
the Messiah:
Phil.2 [6] Messiah, being in
the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:[7] But
made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was
made in the likeness of men:[8] And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled
himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.[9]
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above
every name:[10] That at the name of Yeshua every knee
should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the
earth;[11] And that every tongue should confess that Yeshua
the Messiah is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
1Cor.15
[17] And
if Messiah be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
Col.1 [15] Messiah is the image
of the invisible God, the firstborn
of every creature:[16] For by Him were all
things created, that are in
heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones,
or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and
for him: [17] And he is before all things, and by him all
things consist.
Prov.8 [23] Messiah
was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
[24]
When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains
abounding with water.
[25] Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought
forth:
[26] While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the
highest part of the dust of the world.
[27] When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass
upon the face of the depth:
[28] When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the
fountains of the deep:
[29] When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass
his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
[30] Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his
delight, rejoicing always before him;
[31] Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were
with the sons of men.
[32] Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they
that keep my ways.
[33] Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
[34] Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching
daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
[35] For whoso findeth me findeth
life, and shall obtain favour of Yehovah.
[36] But he that sinneth against me wrongeth
his own soul: all they that hate me love death
Pss.45 [6] Thy throne,
O God, is for
ever and ever: the sceptre
of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
Heb.1 [8] But
unto the Son he saith,
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever:
a sceptre
of righteousness is the sceptre of thy
kingdom.
Heb.1:[1]
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake
in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
[2] Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath
appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
[3] Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person,
and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself
purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
[4] Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by
inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
[5] For unto which of the angels
said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again,
I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
Pss.2 [7] I will
declare the decree: Yehovah hath said unto
me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
[6] And
again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten
into the world, he saith, And
let all the angels of God worship him.
[7] And of the angels he saith, Who
maketh
his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
[8] But unto the Son he saith,
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a
sceptre
of righteousness is the sceptre of thy
kingdom.
[9] Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore
God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy
fellows.
[10] And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the
earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
[11] They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they
all shall wax old as doth a garment;
[12] And as a vesture shalt thou fold them
up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall
not fail.
[13] But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right
hand, until I make thine enemies thy
footstool?
[14] Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for
them who shall be heirs of salvation?
Again God was manifest in the flesh, Yeshua
This study came about as I hear many people are being deceived today by anti-missionaries with their fake Hebrew façade, as they befriend you.
They say that they know more accurately what the Scriptures say.
If this was true, they would not have missed hundreds of prophecies pertaining to the Messiah in the Hebrew Scripture.
Scripture is very clear that Yeshua is the Messiah and His shed blood is the only atonement for sin today and forever.
There are no more sacrifices for sin to be performed today or in the future and anti-missionaries, Karaites have no sacrifice for sin until they repent and accept the only true Messiah, Yeshua and His shed blood.
Without Yeshua you have no atonement!
I smell a rat dressed up as your brother or sister.
Yeshua is not a Karaite, nor is He a Sadducee
Some people are believing this nonsense and losing their souls
Reworked from the net
Karaites erroneously trace their origins to the Sadducees
Some karaites explicitly subvert the biblical teachings on who Yeshua was, the Word of God made flesh, and are covertly leading believers in Yeshua the Messiah, the Word of God made flesh, away from their true faith.
Some karaites are devoted students of the Karaite teacher Mordecai Alfandari who was a very vocal anti-missionary (a Jewish leader who seeks to undermine believers in Yeshua and draw Jewish people away from belief in Yeshua as the Messiah, God in the flesh.
Being raised as Orthodox in Karaite Judaism or Judaism does not merit the only salvation in Messiah shed blood.
Being a Prominent promoter of Karaism does not merit the only salvation in Messiah’s shed blood.
Holding a master's degree in Biblical studies from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem does not merit the only salvation in Messiah’s shed blood.
Speaking Hebrew or translating Hebrew does not merit the only salvation in Messiah’s s not hed blood.
Authoring or coauthoring books on Yeshua and openly rejecting Yeshua as Messiah does not merit the only salvation in Messiah’s shed blood.
Having affiliations with Messianic Jews and with other Christian groups, groups with some pre-existing affinity toward Jewish identity and practice does not merit the only salvation in Messiah’s shed blood.
Some karaites undermine the authority and reliability of the Gospels and Letters as we have them today and seek to promote the idea that Yeshua was, in fact, a sort of proto-karaite whose real message was simply, that people should obey the law of Moses while rejecting the oral human traditions of the Pharisees.
As so many people before have their motives, so the people of today have their motives and are still polluting the Word of God.
While looking for the "real, historical Yeshua" that is hidden from us Gospels and Letters, they say, they find a Yeshua that instead looks an awful lot like, a Karaite or whatever of today.
As you see, when their assumptions are in error, so their conclusions will also be in error.
We always find our answers in the underline text they are using for their study, the secret Hebrew original. Not, lol
Hebrew Matthew and The Real Yeshua?
Here are some so called claims:
1. A 14th Century Jewish physician in Spain named Shem-Tov published a work in Hebrew presenting arguments against Roman Catholicism. In this work, he quoted from Matthew in Hebrew.
2. A study was published by an associate professor of religion at the university of Georgia named George Howard claiming that the text of Matthew quoted by Shem-Tov was written originally in Hebrew and goes back very early in church history.
3. The early church writer Papias claims that Matthew was originally written in Hebrew and was translated badly into Greek and other languages.
4. Shem-Tov's text shows signs of corruption where people attempted over the years to change it to fit the Greek text, so anywhere it agrees with the Greek we can assume is a corruption in the text, but anywhere it disagrees with the Greek may be the Hebrew original of Matthew and so should be preferred to the traditional New Testament reading.
5. Therefore, we should use this medieval Hebrew text to reinterpret the words of Yeshua and see him in a new light.
No!
Information below was taken from our friend Richard Rives. Too long in the sun website
HEBREW MATTHEW - Shem Tov - du Tillet – Munster
Are we to believe and trust these references by Origen and his student Eusebius?
It was Origen was deceived by education and philosophy who upon receipt of pure copies of scripture altered them to parallel his twisted thinking.
He is the father of all Bible critics and is not only responsible for the physical manuscripts which delete such verses as Luke 24:40, Acts 8:37 and I John 5:7, but he is also responsible for the Alexandrian philosophy parroted by so many of our fundamental scholars who claim that "The Bible is perfect and infallible" with one breath and then state "The Bible has mistakes and mistranslations" with the very next. It is this demented ideology that gave birth to the corrupt Alexandrian manuscripts in the first place.
"As having learnt by tradition concerning the four Gospels, which alone are unquestionable in the Church of God under heaven, that first was written according to Matthew, who was once a tax collector but afterwards an apostle of Yeshua the Messiah, who published it for those who from Judaism came to believe, composed as it was in the Hebrew language." - Origen (Eusebius, H.E. 6.25.4)
"Matthew collected the oracles (ta logia) in the Hebrew language, and each interpreted them as best he could." - Papias (Eusebius, H.E. 3.39.16)
--------------
Beware of those who present the Shem Tov version of Matthew as an accurate representation of a manuscript.
Many believers in Messiah Yeshua are being led by unbelievers to accept an unscriptural version of pseudo Hebrew Matthew which was found as a part of a polemic document entitled Eban Bohan.
This document was authored by Shem Tob, an unbelieving Jewish theologian.
Many unbelievers are going around the country promoting this trash.
Remember - we don't have an early copy of Shem-Tob's work.
But
Quoting Professor George Howard, translator of Shem Tob:
In regard to theology, Shem-tob’s Hebrew Matthew is heretical according to the standard of traditional Christianity.
It never identifies Yeshua with the Messiah.
John the Baptist is given an exalted role (even takes on messianic traits),
Shem-Tob’s text envisions the salvation of the Gentiles only in the Messianic era.
-----------------------------
Shem Tob ben Shaprut of Tudela Castle – Spain, 1385 - 14th Century
Wrote a polemical work against Christianity entitled Eben Bohan (The Touchstone)
Matthew is a separate chapter of Eben Bohan
A cursive manuscript of Eben Bohan can be found at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America - New York
-------------------------
du Tillet
Jean du Tillet - Catholic Bishop of Brieux France
From a manuscript found at Rome among the Jews in 1553
Used by Jehovah’s witnesses
James Trim translated du Tillet
----------------------
Munster
Sebastian Munster
1537 confiscated from the Jews
Some think Munster and du Tillet to be from the same source
Munster filled in missing portions and made no notes as to which parts he added.
Shem Tob and du Tillet are different texts. They do not always agree.
Munster disagrees with Shem Tob.
They do not always agree Jerome speaks of a Hebrew Matthew among the Nazarenes in Jordan who fled Jerusalem.
Jerome quotes that text and Professor George Howard who translated Shem Tob says that Jeromes quotes do not match Shem Tob.
Epiphanius qoutes Ebionite Hebrew Matthew. His quotes do not match Shem Tob.
The tetragrammaton does not appear in Shem Tob or in du Tillet.
In Shem Tob it is written as Heh or something and two Yods signifying Ha Shem or The Name.
In du Tillet it is written as three Yods.
----------
SCRIPTURAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SHEM TOB AND THE GREEK MAJORITY TEXTS AS REPRESENTED IN THE ENGLISH KING JAMES VERSION OF THE BIBLE
Never identifies Yeshua as Messiah
Mat 1:1 "the generation of Yeshua the Messiah"
Shem Tob "the generations of Yeshua ( )"
-----------
Never identifies Yeshua as Messiah.
Mat 1:18 "now the birth of Yeshua (the) Messiah"
Shem Tob "birth of Yeshua ( )"
-----------
The fact that Yeshua "shall save His people" omitted
Mat 1:21 "thou shalt call his name Yeshua: for he shall save his people from their sins"
Shem Tob "he shall save my people from their sins"
-----------
Non-Biblical - Rabbinical reference
Mat 4:9 "all these things will I give if thou wilt fall down and worship me"
Shem Tob "if you bare your head to me"
-----------
Jewish sages given equal status with Yeshua / Yeshua
Mat 7:29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
"Preaching with great power not as the rest of the sages."
-----------
Reference to the coming kingdom removed
Mat 6:10 "Thy kingdom come"
Shem Tob "may your kingdom be blessed"
-----------
Forgiveness of sin by Yeshua / Yeshua removed
Mat 9:2 "thy sins be forgiven thee"
Shem Tob "It is by the faith of God that your sins have been forgiven"
-----------
The gospel set aside
Mat 11:5 "the poor have the gospel preached to them"
Shem Tob "the poor are aquited"
-----------
Elevation of John the Baptist over Yeshua
Mat 11:11 - 11:13
"For all the prophets and the law spoke concerning John" as opposed
"prophesied until John".
Mat 21:32 "Because John came to you in the way of righteousness and you did not believe him."
In Shem Tob - addressed to the disciples instead of the chief priests and elders
----------------------
Quoting Professor George Howard, translator of Shem Tob:
In summary, this series of readings asserts that none is greater than John, the prophets and the law spoke concerning John,
John (Elijah) is to save all the world, and Yeshua’ own disciples are disgraced for not having believed John.
In traditional Christianity such a description is usually applied to Yeshua.
Its application to John the Baptist in Shem Tob’s Hebrew, elevates the Baptist to a salvation role.
-----------
The temple greater than Yeshua
Mat 12:6 "But I say unto you, in this place is one greater than the temple"
Shem Tob "the temple is greater than this"
-----------
Mat 13:11 "it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given"
Shem Tob "to know the kingdom of heaven"
-----------
Man sows seed instead of the son of man:
Mat 13:37 "He that soweth the good seed is the son of man"
Shem tob "the one who sows good seed is man"
-----------
Possible Talmudic influence - Toldoth Yeshu?
Mat 13:55 "Is this not the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary?"
"Is this not the son of the smith and Mary?"
-----------
*** James is left out as
brother of Yeshua
in the Shem Tob - Possible
Mat 14:6 In Shem Tob - Herods daughter danced - not Herodias’ daughter
-----------
Possible Talmudic Influence: Doctrine of the Pharisees unquestioned
Mat 16:12 Told to beware the doctrine of the Pharisees..."
Shem Tob "beware of the behavior of the Pharisees..."
-----------
Salvation by Elijah rather than Yeshua
Mat 17:11 "Elijah shall truly shall first come and restore all things"
Shem Tob "Elijah will come and save all the world"
-----------
Salvation by way of "The Son of man" deleted
Mat 18:11 "The Son of man is come to save that which was lost"
Shem Tob "the son of man has stopped saving the enemy"
-----------
Possible Talmudic Implications:
Mat 18:18 "Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven"
Shem Tob applies this scripture to being bound or loosed from oaths taken - Day of Atonement - Col Nidre Prayer - implications ????
Shem Tob "every oath which you shall bind on earth is bound in heaven and every oath which you shall loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."
-----------
Worldly material wealth rather than heavenly treasure
Mat 19:22 "Went away sorrowful for he had great possessions"
Shem Tob "went away angry because he did not have much property"
-----------
Mat 19:28
"When the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory"
"when man sits upon the throne of his glory"
-----------
Mat 20:30
"When they heard the Yeshua passed by"
"the prophet Yeshua from Nazareth is coming"
-----------
The preaching of the gospel as a witness concerning Yeshua is the Anti-Messiah and this is the abomination which desolates.
Mat 24:14-16 "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet stand in the holy place (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains."
Shem Tob "And this gospel, that is, evungili, will be preached un all the earth for a witness concerning me to all the nations and then the end will come.
This is the Anti-Messiah and this is the abomination which desolates. Then those who are in Judaea let them flee to the mountains."
-----------
"Son of man" replaced by "the bridegroom."
Mat 25:13 ...day not the hour wherein the Son of man cometh"
Shem Tob "...day nor hour when the bridegroom comes."
-----------
Possible Talmudic implications
Mat 26:2 "...the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified"
Shem Tob "delivered into the hand of the Jews for the gallows"
Mat 27:23 "Let him be crucified"
Shem Tob "let them hang him"
Mat 27:31 "led him away to crucify him"
Shem Tob "gave orders to hang him"
"The Cross" is in parenthesis as if it needed to be connected with the word gallows.
Mat 27:32 "him they compelled to bear his cross"
Shem Tob "compelled him to carry the gallows, that is "The Cross"
Mat 27:40-42 "Come down from the cross"
Shem Tob v.40 "come down from the gallows" - v.42 "come down from the tree"
Mat 28:5 "ye seek Yeshua who was crucified"
"Shem Tob "Yeshua who was hung"
-----------
Not the King of the Jews but the King of Israel
Mat 27:37 "THIS IS YESHUA THE KING OF THE JEWS"
Shem Tob "This is Yeshua of Nazareth the King of Israel"
-----------
Mat 27:46 "with a loud voice"
Shem Tob "in the holy language" (Hebrew ?)
-----------
Mat 27:57 "a rich man of Arimathea"
Shem Tob "A rich man from Karnasiah came . His name was Joseph…"
-----------
Mat 27:59 "when Joseph had taken the body he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth"
Shem Tob "wrapped it in a very fine silk garment"
-----------
Mat 28:9 - Shem Tob has Yeshua substituting YHVH with "Ha Shem"
Traditional Jewish greeting rather than Greek/Roman greeting as is found in majority manuscripts
"Yeshua met them saying All Hail"
Shem Tob - "saying May the Name deliver you"
-----------
Shem Tob has 12 disciples going to Galilee after Judas was dead
Mat 28:16 "Then the eleven disciples went away unto Galilee"
Shem Tob - "when his twelve disciples came to Galilee"
-----------
"I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world" - left out
Mat 28:20 - Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo "I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world" Amen
Shem Tob - and teach them to carry out all the things which I have commanded you forever.
-----------
Again…
Quoting Professor George Howard, translator of Shem Tob:
In regard to theology, Shem-tob’s Hebrew Matthew is heretical according to the standard of traditional Christianity.
It never identifies Yeshua with the Messiah.
John the Baptist is given an exalted role (even takes on messianic traits),
Shem-Tob’s text envisions the salvation of the Gentiles only in a Messianic era.
---------------------
Remember: Karaites
still do not believe Yeshua to be the
Messiah; like all Karaites they
are in error and eagerly await the coming of the anointed Davidic king, who came already, who will reign as king over Israel, ushering
in an era of eternal peace, then they quote
(Isaiah 11; Ezekiel 34:24-25; even Luke 1:32-33).
To their knowledge Yeshua has yet to fulfill this fundamental criterion of the Davidic Messiah.
Remember, when the entire premise is flawed, so is the conclusion
You can’t start with your own conclusion and then judge the so-called biblical sources you are using, to tell whether or not they agree with your assumptions.
2Tim.3 [16] All scripture is given by inspiration
of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for
instruction in righteousness: [17] That the man of God may be perfect, throughly
furnished unto all good works.
By Yeshua’s own authority He taught, something no mere Karaite calling people back to an older form of Torah observance could ever do.
Yeshua claimed to be the Messiah, the word of God made flesh
Yeshua worked great miracles, rose from the dead, ascended to the right hand of the Father, and foretold His future return.
He was not a mere "good teacher"- Yeshua was God in the flesh – Immanuel
Yeshua was and is the Messiah, son of David, and the divine Son, Word of Yehovah made flesh, Lord of all things
No medieval translation, especially one like the HEBREW MATTHEW - Shem Tob - du Tillet – Munster, that is in error, can change what Yeshua said or who Yeshua truly was, the Messiah, the Word of God made flesh.
Isa.7 [14] Therefore Yehovah Himself
shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall
conceive, and bear a son, and shall call His name Immanuel.
Matt.1 [23] Behold, a virgin shall be
with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Yeshua has to be the Messiah - מָשִׁיחַ
Let’s look at:
1. When Messiah had to come.
2. The Temple had to be standing.
3. Messiah is the messenger of the covenant
4. Elijah the prophet came - Mal. 3:1, 4:5 אֵלִיָּה הַנָּבִיא
5. Elijah was the messenger, forerunner sent before Yeshua fulfilled in John
7. Yeshua foretold of the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple הֵיכַל
8. Messiah has to be Yeshua.
Here it is in a nutshell:
Haggai 2:7 And I will shake all
nations, and the desire of all nations (Messiah) shall come: and I
will fill this house with glory, saith Yehovah
of hosts.
[8] The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith
Yehovah
of hosts.
[9] The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the
former, saith
Yehovah
of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith
Yehovah
of hosts.
Malachi confirms the prediction in Haggai Chap. 2 verses 7- 9
Malachi Chap. 3 verse 1 “The Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to His temple”.
This
prediction in Malachi, as well as the one in Haggai, could not be fulfilled
after the destruction of the temple in 70 A.D.
So, if the Messiah came at all, He had to come before the second temple was destroyed.
Zechariah Chap. 11 verse 13 also demands that the Messiah come before the destruction of the temple, for that prediction speaks of “the thirty pieces of silver” being “cast to the potter in the House of the Lord [the temple]” (Zechariah Chap. 11 verse 13).
Matt.27 [3] Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was
condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty
pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders…
In Psalm 118 verse 26 tells us that the people that
came, welcome the Messiah would say not only “Blessed be He that cometh in the
name of the Lord,” but also “We have blessed you out of the House of the Lord”
(Psalm Chap. 118 verse 26).
That is, from the House of the Lord (the Temple) the people will bless Him when He comes.
This was fulfilled in the life of Yeshua.
When He approached Jerusalem for His triumphal entry, the people said, “Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest” (Matthew Chap. 21 verse 9).
Then we read that Yeshua healed many that were blind and lame in the temple (Matthew Chap. 21 verse 14).
Matthew Chap. 21 verse 15 tells us that the children cried in the temple, saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David.” Surely, “out of the mouth of babes and sucklings Thou hast perfected praise” (Psalm 8 verse 2; Matthew Chap. 21 verse 16).
Thus God used children to fulfill His prediction given in Psalm 118 verse 26 that the Messiah should be blessed in the House of the Lord!
There are at least five Scriptural predictions of the coming of the Messiah that demand that He come while the temple at Jerusalem was still standing.
This is a fact of great significance, since the temple has NOT been rebuilt since its destruction in 70 A.D.
These five Scriptures are: Haggai Chap. 2 verses 7-9; Malachi Chap. 3 verse 1; Zechariah Chap. 11 verse 13; Daniel Chap. 9 verse 26; and Psalm 118 verse 26.
(read Matthew Chap. 21 verses 1-16; Mark Chap.11 verses 1-10; Luke Chap. 19 verses 29-40.) “And Yeshua went into the temple of God…and the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple; and He healed them…and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David” (Matthew Chap. 21 verses 12-15).
Two other interesting Scriptures to look at:
When Yeshua was a child, he taken to the temple by His parents, as recorded in Luke Chap. 2 verses 25-32; also, when Yeshua as a boy of twelve was in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors and all that heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers (Luke Chap. 2 verses 46-47).
After years,
even centuries of waiting, the Messiah suddenly came to His temple! (Malachi
Chap. 3 verse 1).
Then a few years later, God, destroyed the temple and the city of Jerusalem, even as Yeshua had told the people.
On the old temple site today, now stands heathen shrines.
The scriptures are telling all people everywhere, the Messiah has already come!
He can’t come now as a man and there is no temple.
The Messiah had to come many years before the temple was destroyed.
Either Yeshua is the true Messiah, or there is no Messiah, no prophecy, no Word of God, no God, no objective truth; and then all history, as well as all the future, is as meaningless and purposeless.
Looking back:
Daniel says something remarkable about the coming of Messiah relative to the temple.
In giving the timetable from his time to the coming of the Messiah (see the next paragraph), Daniel makes it very clear that the Messiah will come and be “cut off” (die) before the “people [the Romans] of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city [Jerusalem] and the sanctuary [the temple]” (Daniel Chap. 9 verse 26).
Another relative point to the time of the Messiah’s coming:
The Messiah must come 483 years after a specific date in Daniel’s time.
This definite prediction as to the exact TIME of the coming of the Messiah is one of the most wonderful prophecies in the entire Bible. It establishes the date of the Messiah’s advent almost five hundred years before He came.
Malachi 3:1 is a very important scripture connecting many scriptures together.
Let's consider.
Mal.3 [1] Behold, I
will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before Me: and the
Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to this temple,
even the messenger of the covenant ,
whom ye delight in: behold, He shall come, saith
Yehovah
of hosts.
This scripture broken down into phrases:
1. I will send - God
2. My messenger - John (Elijah) Matt. 11:7-14, Matt. 17:10-12, Isa. 40:3,
Mark 9:11:13, Mark 1:1-4, Luke 7:27-28
3.He shall prepare
the way
- John (Elijah) Matt. 11:7-14, Matt. 17:10-12,
Isa. 40:3, Mark 9:11:13, Mark 1:1-4, Luke 7:27-28
4. before Me - Yeshua the Messiah (Yeshua)
5. the Lord, shall suddenly come - Yeshua the Messiah Mal. 3:1
6. To this temple - Dan. 12:25 - Messiah - Zach. 9:9, Mal. 3:1
7. Messenger of the covenant - Yeshua the Messiah of the covenant (Jer. 31:31)
8. He shall come saith the Yehovah of Hosts =
Messiah came.
Matt.11: [7] And
as they departed, Yeshua began to say unto the multitudes
concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A
reed shaken with the wind?
[8] But what went ye
out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold,
they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.[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.
[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.[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.
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.
Mark.1: [1 ] The beginning of the
gospel of Yeshua
the Messiah, the Son of God;
[2] As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before
thy
face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.[ 3] The voice of one
crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths
straight .[4] John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the
baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
Luke 7:27 This is he, of whom
it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy
face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
[28] For I say unto you, Among those that are
born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but
he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
Isa.40:[3
] The
voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye
the way of Yehovah,
make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
[4] Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall
be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the
rough places plain:
[5] And the glory of Yehovah shall be
revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of Yehovah
hath spoken it.
Yeshua comes to this "Temple of the Lord"
Haggai 2:7 And I will
shake all nations, and (Messiah) the desire of all nations shall come:
and I will fill this house with
glory, saith
Yehovah
of hosts.
[8] The silver is mine, and the
gold is mine, saith Yehovah
of hosts.
[9] The glory of this latter house shall be
greater than of the former, saith Yehovah
of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith
Yehovah
of hosts.
Zech.9 [9] Rejoice
greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy
King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding
upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Matt.21:[1] And when they drew
nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the
mount of Olives, then sent Yeshua two
disciples,
[2] Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and
straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and
bring them unto me.
[3] And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need
of them; and straightway he will send them.
[4] All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the
prophet, saying,
[5] Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy
King cometh unto thee , meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the
foal of an ass.
Mark.11:[ 1] And when they
came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and
Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of
his disciples,
[2] And saith unto them, Go your way into the
village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a
colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.
[3] And if any man say unto you,
Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him;
and straightway he will send him hither.
[4] And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without
in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
[5] And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What
do ye, loosing
the colt?
[6] And they said unto them even as Yeshua
had commanded: and they let them go.
[7] And they brought the colt to Yeshua, and cast
their garments on him; and he sat upon him.
[8] And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down
branches off the trees, and strawed them in the
way.
[9] And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying,
Hosanna; Blessed is he that
cometh in the name of the Lord:
[10] Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the
name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
[11] And Yeshua entered into
Jerusalem, and into the temple : and when he had looked
round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto
Bethany with the twelve.
**Same in Luke.19: [38] …Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord : peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
Yeshua foretold of the destruction of Jerusalem & the Temple
[41] And when he
was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
[42] Saying, If thou hadst known, even
thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but
now they are hid from thine eyes.
[43] For the days shall come upon thee, that thine
enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee
in on every side,
[44] And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and
they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another;
because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
**Same in
Matt.24 [2]
And Yeshua
said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily
I say unto you, There
shall not be left here one stone upon
another, that shall not be thrown down.
**Same - John.12:[12] On the next day much
people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Yeshua
was coming to Jerusalem,
[13] Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried,
Hosanna: (save now) Blessed is the King of Israel
that cometh in the name of the Lord.
[14] And Yeshua, when he had
found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
[15] Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy
King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.
[16] These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Yeshua
was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that
they had done these things unto things unto him.
**Same - Pss.118: 22 The
stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
[23] This is Yehovah's doing; it
is marvellous
in our eyes.
[24] This is the day which Yehovah hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
[25] Save now, I beseech thee, Yehovah: Yehovah, I beseech thee, send now prosperity. [26
] Blessed be He that cometh in the name of Yehovah:
we have blessed you out of the house of Yehovah
Dan.9 [25] Know
therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to
restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince , shall be
seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and
the wall, even in troublous times.
The Messiah must come /die/rise - 483 years from the time Ezra and Nehemiah started building the temple.
This definite prediction as to the exact TIME of the coming of the Messiah is one of the most wonderful prophecies in the entire Bible. It establishes the date of the Messiah’s advent almost five hundred years before He came.
Dan.9 [26] And after
threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself:
and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the
sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the
war desolations are determined.

Here is a breakdown of the verses above:
Dan.9 [25] Know
therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to
restore and to build Jerusalem unto THE MESSIAH THE
PRINCE shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: 483 years
the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, 483 years
but not for Himself: Yeshua died for the sins of the world
and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary” - approx. 70 AD, as recorded today - Titus destroyed the Jerusalem (Daniel Chap. 9 verses 25-26).
Yeshua prophesied about the destruction of the Temple
Matt.24
[1] And Yeshua
went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew
him the buildings of the temple.
[2] And Yeshua said unto them, See ye not all
these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not
be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
The
7 years here: Looks like there is a gap in time here in these verses, then the
time of the Anti-Messiah - he
Dan.9 [27] And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: 7 years - and in the midst of the week 3 ½ years - he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Dan.11[31] And arms shall stand on
his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate.
Matt.24 [15] When ye therefore shall see the
abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the
holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
Same in - Mark.13 [14] But when ye shall see the
abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing
where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,)
then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:
In closing:
1Tim.3 [16] And without controversy great is the mystery of
godliness: God was manifest in the flesh,(the
Word, the Son)
justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed
on in the world, received up into glory.
1John.2 [18] Little children, it is the last time:
and as ye have heard that antichrist shall
come, even now are there many
antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
[22]
Who is a liar but he that denieth that Yeshua
is the Messiah? He is antichrist,
that denieth
the Father and the Son.[23] Whosoever denieth
the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth
the Son hath the Father also.
1John.4 [3] And every spirit that confesseth
not that Yeshua
the Messiah is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard
that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
2John.1 [7] For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Yeshua the Messiah is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
John.8 [21] Then said Yeshua
again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye
cannot come. [24] I said
therefore unto you, that ye shall die
in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he
(in the TaNaKh) , ye shall die in your sins.
