Be politically correct by calling Israel, Palestine? NO!

 

The Myth of Palestine

N.T. 79 matches - Israel , No Palestine

O.T. 2523 matches - Israel

Israel was established again in 1948

1) There is no language known as Palestinian.

2) There is no distinct Palestinian culture.

3) There has never been a land known as Palestine governed by Palestinians.

Palestinians are Arabs

While we are not certain of the exact dates, Joshua conquered the Land God promised the Jews in the 13th century BCE. King David established Jerusalem as the capital of Israel around 1000 BCE. King Solomon built the Jewish Temple about 960 BCE. This was almost 1000 years before the beginning of Christianity and 1600 years before the rise of Islam.

However, not to be confused with facts, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, who was appointed by Arafat, he boldly declared that the Arabs had been living in the Land for 10,000 years. Based on conservative Bible chronology, that means the Arabs have been living in the Land before the Almighty created Adam and Eve .

In the scriptures above, pertaining to Chanukah or dedication , John was talking about Solomon's temple that Ezra help rebuild. (1 Kings 8:2; 2 Chr. 5:3) Also please read the scriptures below in Ezra, chapter 6.

Ezra.6:[14] And the elders of the Jews builded, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they builded, and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
[15] And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, (our Feb. - cold - not December ) , which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
[16] And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy,
[17] And offered at the dedication of this house of God an hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve he goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.

Esth.3 [7] In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar. ( not December )

Chanukah is a Hebrew word meaning ?dedication? because this observance marks the rededication and building of the Temple after it had been desecrated.

Also remember:

The first dedication was in the 7th month, Ethanim, 1Kings. 8:2 ( Sept. - Oct.) not December:

1Kgs.8:[2] And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month. - [63] And Solomon offered a sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered unto the LORD, two and twenty thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel "dedicated" the house of the LORD . וַיַּחְנְכוּ

Ezra.6:[15] And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, (our Feb. - cold - not December ) , which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the

______________________________________________________________

This is what you will hear from tradition, which is wrong.

Also please remember there are "NO" commandment from God to "light candles" on this made up feast or the Holy Shabbat. If you light candles on the Shabbat, it is fine as long as you DON'T say it is a commandment.

Scripture says:

Zech.7[1] And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu; November / December

The other common name for this feast is Hag Haorim, which means 'the Feast of Lights' It is found in the writings of Josephus, who was a first Century Jewish historian. This second name, however, is based upon a tradition. Supposedly, when the Jews rededicated the Temple and wanted to rekindle the lampstand, they found only enough oil for one day. It would take 8 days to make a new supply they decided to kindle and burn the remaining oil, a miracle occurred as the oil that was enough for only one day lasted for eight days ... thus, the term representing, "the Feast of Lights. This is why the Chanukah menorah has eight candles, ( which is unscriptural ) instead of the seven the scripture menorah has.

They made 8 candles to commemorate this made up miracle.

The made of feast of today, Chanukah, in and of itself, is not found anywhere in the Scriptures , as it originated during the time of history after the Book of Malachi. There were no prophets for 397 years after the book of Malachi.

It should be remembered that none of the historical books mention this miracle, as it Originates with the "Talmud" and not with the books of the Holy Scriptures.

The historical books that speak of the Maccabean revolt as a real event are in the uninspired "Catholic" I and 2 Maccabees and they make no mention of any miracle of 8 days of oil at all!

As you can see, it is fact that this made up feast is recorded in Rabbinic writings not found in the Holy Scriptures. While the gentiles have made up christmas and receive gifts, now also do jewish children receive gifts during Chanukah, no one is left out..............very sad
