Today we use the
Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory, from the 1500’s
Today is
April 21, 2012
Sad to say…
April—Aphrodite’s month
Old English April(is)
Latin Aprilis
Etruscan Apru
Greek Aphro, short for Aphrodite.
Aprilis had 30 days, until Numa when it had 29
days, until Julius when it became 30 days long.
Aphrodite is the Greek goddess of love and beauty
She is identified with the Roman goddess Venus.
--------------------------
Yehovah has His own calendar
Today is the 29th
day of the first month
Exod.12[ 2] This month shall be unto you the beginning of
months: it shall be the first month of the year
to you.

Before we start, first I will do a short review of the
Spring Feasts and Holy Days that are left. It seems I can never review these days early
enough for some, this is the 11th time.
Here are the 2012
dates for these holy days.
--------------
**Remember, all 2012 dates I give you start in the “evening before”
-------------
----
Ziv 1 - 2nd month - Monday April 23
Sivan 1 - 3rd month - Wednesday, May 23rd
Feast of Weeks a Sabbath, Sunday, May 27th (2 Sabbaths in a row)
---------------
**Remember:
We were told to count the "Sabbaths"
not omers
So we
are counting.
Today
is the 2nd Sabbath out of the seven Sabbaths we were told
to count.
Judaism and some Messianics are
counting the “omer”. They still cannot follow the
scriptures correctly.
For your information:
An "omer" is
a "sheaf" of barley - òîø
omer - A dry
measure of 1/10 ephah (about 2
liters)
Lev.23 [15] And ye shall count unto you from the
morrow after the sabbath,
from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:
[16] Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto Yehovah.
[21]
And ye shall proclaim on the selfsame day, that it may be an holy convocation unto you: ye shall do no servile work
therein: it shall be a statute for ever in all your dwellings
throughout your generations.

Rosh Chodesh - New Moon Report
Sunday evening,
we will be in the 2nd month of God, Ziv / Zif
1 Kgs. 6 [1] And it came to pass in
the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out
of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the
second month, that he began to build the house of Yehovah.
æÄå - ziv - brightness, (figuratively) the month of flowers
***Make sure you
change your Judaism calendars – The 2nd month is not Iyyar as
Judaism states, it is Ziv.

Restore
Isa. 58
[1]
Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my
people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
[2] Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation
that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of
me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God.
[3] Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not?
wherefore have
we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in
the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labours.
[4] Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of
wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard
on high.
[5]
Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day
for a man to afflict his soul? is it
to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him?
wilt thou
call this a fast, and an acceptable day to Yehovah?
[6]
Is not this the fast that I have chosen?
to loose the
bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go
free, and that ye break every yoke?
[7] Is it not to deal
thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are
cast out to thy house? when thou
seest the
naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own
flesh?
[8] Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health
shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the
glory of Yehovah
shall be thy rereward.
[9]
Then shalt thou call, and Yehovah shall answer;
thou shalt cry,
and he shall say, Here I
am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the
finger, and speaking vanity;
[10] And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the
afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as
the noonday:
[11] And Yehovah
shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy
bones: and thou shalt be
like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
[12] And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
[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,
not doing thine own
ways, nor finding thine own
pleasure, 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

A Restorer
Jeremiah
I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations -
Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah
"In the days of Josiah"
Jer.1 [1]
The
words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
[2]
To whom the word of Yehovah came
in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
[3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of
Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of
Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
[4] Then the word of Yehovah came
unto me, saying,
[5] Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto
the nations.

No written law for a long time
(There is approximately 338 years from King Asa to King Josiah)
2 Chr.12 [1]
And it
came to pass, when Rehoboam had
established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of
Yehovah, and
all Israel with him.
2 Chr.15 [1] And the Spirit of God
came upon Azariah the
son of Oded:
[2] And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye
me, Asa, and
all Judah and Benjamin;
Yehovah is
with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you;
but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.
[3] Now for a long
season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest,
and without law.

A Restorer
Josiah
2 Kgs. 22
[1]
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and
one years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.
[2] And he did that which was right in the sight of Yehovah, and
walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right
hand or to the left.
[3] And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the
king sent Shaphan the
son of Azaliah, the
son of Meshullam, the
scribe, to the house of Yehovah,
saying,
[4] Go up to Hilkiah the
high priest, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of Yehovah,
which the keepers of the door have gathered of the people:
[5] And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that
have the oversight of the house of Yehovah: and let them give it to
the doers of the work which is in the house of Yehovah, to repair the breaches of
the house,
[6] Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn
stone to repair the house.
[7] Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was
delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.
[8] And Hilkiah the
high priest said unto Shaphan the
scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Yehovah. And
Hilkiah gave
the book to Shaphan, and
he read it.
[9] And Shaphan the
scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy
servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have
delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of
the house of Yehovah.
[10] And Shaphan the
scribe shewed the
king, saying, Hilkiah the
priest hath delivered me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
Josiah (In the 18th year of King Josiah)
[11]
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law,
that he rent his clothes.
(There is appox.338
years from Asa to Josiah)
[12]
And the king commanded Hilkiah the
priest, and Ahikam the
son of Shaphan, and
Achbor the
son of Michaiah, and
Shaphan the
scribe, and Asahiah a
servant of the king's, saying,
[13] Go ye, inquire of Yehovah for
me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book
that is found: for great is the wrath of Yehovah that is kindled against us,
because our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do
according unto all that which is written concerning us.
[14] So Hilkiah the
priest, and Ahikam, and
Achbor, and
Shaphan, and
Asahiah,
went unto Huldah the
prophetess, the wife of Shallum the
son of Tikvah, the
son of Harhas,
keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college;) and they communed with
her.
[15] And she said unto them, Thus saith Yehovah God of Israel, Tell the man
that sent you to me,
[16] Thus saith Yehovah,
Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof,
even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read:
[17] Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other
gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands;
therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be
quenched.
[18] But to the king of Judah which sent you to inquire of Yehovah,
thus shall ye say to him, Thus saith Yehovah God of Israel, As touching
the words which thou hast heard;
[19] Because thine
heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before Yehovah,
when thou heardest what
I spake
against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should
become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me;
I also have heard thee, saith Yehovah.
[20] Behold therefore, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be
gathered into thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the
evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
---------------
2 Kgs. 23
[1]
And the king sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Judah and of
Jerusalem.
[2] And the king went up into the house of Yehovah, and all the men of Judah
and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the
prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears
all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of Yehovah.
[3] And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before Yehovah, to
walk after Yehovah, and
to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all their
heart and all their soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were
written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.
[4] And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the
priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of
the temple of Yehovah all
the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of
heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and
carried the ashes of them unto Bethel.
[5] And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had
ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the
places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the
sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
[6] And he brought out the grove from the house of Yehovah,
without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook
Kidron, and
stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the
children of the people.
[7] And he brake down the houses of the
sodomites, that were by the house of Yehovah, where the women wove
hangings for the grove.
[8] And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and
defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to
Beer-sheba, and
brake down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the
gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man's left hand at the
gate of the city.
[9] Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar
of Yehovah in
Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brethren.
[10] And he defiled Topheth,
which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his
son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
[11] And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to
the sun, at the entering in of the house of Yehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the
chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with
fire.
[12] And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz,
which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in
the two courts of the house of Yehovah, did the king beat down,
and brake them down from thence, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.
[13] And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the
right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for
Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the
abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the
children of Ammon, did
the king defile.
[14] And he brake in
pieces the images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the
bones of men.
[15] Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place which
Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who
made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he brake
down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the
grove.
[16] And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that
were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and
burned them upon the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of Yehovah
which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words.
[17] Then he said, What
title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of
the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou
hast done against the altar of Bethel.
[18] And he said, Let him
alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones
of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
[19] And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities
of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke Yehovah to
anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had
done in Bethel.
[20] And he slew all the priests of the high places that were there upon
the altars, and burned men's bones upon them, and returned to Jerusalem.
[21] And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto
Yehovah your
God, as it is written in the book of this covenant.
[22] Surely there was not holden such a passover from
the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of
Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
[23] But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to Yehovah in
Jerusalem.
[24] Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the
images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of
Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of
the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the
house of Yehovah.
[25] And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to Yehovah with
all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all
the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
[26] Notwithstanding Yehovah turned
not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled
against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him
withal.
[27] And Yehovah
said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and
will cast off this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I
said, My name
shall be there.
[28] Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they
not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

Restorers
Nehemiah and Ezra the priest
Law found again
and followed - Temple rebuilt
Neh. 1
[1]
The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came to pass in the
month Chisleu, in
the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the palace,
[2] That Hanani, one
of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning
the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning
Jerusalem.
Neh. 7
[1]
Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, and
the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed,
[2] That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the
ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and
feared God above many.
[3] And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until
the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them:
and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one
to be over against his house.
[4] Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein,
and the houses were not builded.
[5] And my God put into mine heart to gather together the nobles, and the
rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I
found a register of the genealogy of them which came up at the first, and found
written therein,
[6] These are the children of the province, that went up out of the captivity,
of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon
had carried away, and came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his
city;
Neh. 8
[1]
And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the street that
was before the water gate; and they spake unto Ezra the scribe to
bring the book of the law of
Moses, which Yehovah had
commanded to Israel.
[2] And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of
men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day
of the seventh month.
[3] And he read therein before the street that was before the water gate
from the morning until midday, before the men and the women, and those that
could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive unto the book
of the law.
[4] And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made
for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and
Anaiah, and
Urijah, and
Hilkiah, and
Maaseiah, on
his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and
Malchiah, and
Hashum, and
Hashbadana,
Zechariah, and Meshullam.
[5] And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was
above all the people;) and
when he opened it, all the people stood up:
[6] And Ezra blessed Yehovah, the
great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their
hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped Yehovah with their faces to the
ground.
[7] Also Jeshua, and
Bani, and
Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and
the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in
their place.
[8] So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the
sense, and caused them to understand the reading.
[9] And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the
scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto Yehovah your
God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words
of the law.
[10] Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the
sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day
is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of Yehovah is
your strength.
[11] So the Levites stilled all the people, saying, Hold your peace, for the day is
holy; neither be ye grieved.
[12] And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send
portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that
were declared unto them.
[13] And on the second day were gathered together the chief of the fathers
of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, even to
understand the words of the law.
[14] And they found written in the law which Yehovah had commanded by Moses,
that the children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh
month:
[15] And that they should publish and proclaim in
all their cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mount, and fetch
olive branches, and pine branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and
branches of thick trees, to make booths, as it is written.
[16] So the people went forth, and brought them, and made themselves
booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in
the courts of the house of God, and
in the street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim.
[17] And all the congregation of them that were come again out of the
captivity made booths, and sat under the booths: for since the days of Jeshua the
son of Nun unto that day had not the children of Israel done so. And there was
very great gladness.
[18] Also day by day, from the first day unto the last day, he read in the
book of the law of God. And they kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth
day was a solemn assembly, according unto the manner.
