Shabbat Shalom שַׁבָּת שָׁלוֹם

Today is the Shabbat, God’s Time

----------------

 Let’s pray

--------------------------------

Today we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s.

Today is March 15, 2014

 

March -- Mars' month

Middle English March
Anglo-French March
Old English
Martius
Latin
Martius "of Mars"
Latin Marti(s) "Mars" + -us (adj. suffix
)
Latin
Martius mensis "month of Mars"

Martius has always had 31 days.

March was the original beginning of the year and the time for the resumption of war.

Mars is the Roman god of war. He is identified with the Greek god Ares.

------------------

Yehovah has His own calendar

We are now in the 12th month, which is the month called 2nd Adar, 13th day

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.

Adar = “glorious”- אדר

Corresponding to modern Feb. / March

Spring starts March 22th

---------------------------

 Soon ha Aviv, Nisan

It seems I can never review these days early enough for you

 

Here are some approximate 2014 dates for the feasts and holy days; this is the best I can do at this time.

 

**Remember, all 2014 dates I give you start in the evening before

God’s New Year

First of Nisan is April 1 starts evening before (March 31), we believe.

Passover, evening of the 14th

First day of Unleavened Bread – Aviv 15   April 15 starts Evening of April 14

Last Day of Unleavened Bread – Aviv 21 April 21, starts the evening of April 20

Feast of Weeks - Sunday - June 8 starts the Evening of June 7th

If they do not see the New Moon on March 31, then the first of Nisan would be April 2 and all the dates above except the Feast of weeks would increase by 1 day.

Today’s Topic: Review of Purim

Forget not Yehovah, the God of Israel

Always remind each other about the ways of God

Lest we forget about the God of Israel!

 

Purim is a good time to reflect and remind ourselves on the many things of the God of Israel that are "hidden".

 

Esth.9 [1] Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar

אדר  a-dar - A primitive root; to expand, that is, be great or (figuratively) magnificent: - (become) glorious, honorable – (Purim)

(A mantle, cloak)

"Hidden - Star"

----------

Book of Esther

Esth.9 [17] On the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same rested they, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.

 [18] But the Jews that were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof; and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.

[19] Therefore the Jews of the villages, that dwelt in the unwalled towns, made the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.

[20] And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far,

[21] To stablish this among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,

 [22] As the days wherein the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day: that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor.

[23] And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them;

[24] Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them;

 [25] But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

[26] Wherefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur.

Therefore for all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and which had come unto them,

[27] The Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to their writing, and according to their appointed time every year;

[28] And that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from their seed.

[29] Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority, to confirm this second letter of Purim.

[30] And he sent the letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,

[31] To confirm these days of Purim in their times appointed, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, the matters of the fastings and their cry.

[32] And the decree of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.

----------------------------------

A short look at the word "Adar" and the Book of Esther

Adar אֲדָר

א first letter in the Hebrew alef- bet is alef and it is "hidden or silent".

דָר means to dwell, live

I see by this word Adar, when broken down, can convey a message that the "invisible God" wants to dwell among us and in us.

 

In the Book of Esther, the Hebrew the word "Esther" means "star" but the root of the word "Esther" is "satar" and means "hidden".

The words, God and Lord do not appear in the book of Esther, they are "hidden or silent".

 

Adar can convey the meaning of glorious, fire which is light

---------------

Now in the Book of Esther:

 

Book of Esther, a hidden message, shadows of the Messiah?

 

Resurrection, Deliverance and Salvation

------

Esth. 3: [12] Then were the king's scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first month (Aviv / Nisan), and there was written according to all that Haman had commanded unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors that were over every province, and to the rulers of every people of every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language; in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and sealed with the king's ring.

 

Esth. 4: [16] Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day:

 

This should be the 16th of Aviv / Nisan below:

 

Esth. 5: [1] Now it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king's house, over against the king's house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the gate of the house.

[4] And Esther answered, If it seem good unto the king, let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet that I have prepared for him.

 

Then:

 

Esth. 5: [8] If I have found favour in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do tomorrow as the king hath said.

This should be the 17th of Aviv / Nisan, above

 

Esth. 7: [1] So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.

[2] And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? and it shall be performed, even to the half of the kingdom.

[3] Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request:

[4] For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king's damage.

[5] Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so?

[6] And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.

[7] And the king arising from the banquet of wine in his wrath went into the palace garden: and Haman stood up to make request for his life to Esther the queen; for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king.

[8] Then the king returned out of the palace garden into the place of the banquet of wine; and Haman was fallen upon the bed whereon Esther was. Then said the king, Will he force the queen also before me in the house? As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.

[9] And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon.

[10] So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified.

 

The people of God were delivered.

---------------

 

Book of Exodus, a hidden message, shadows of the Messiah?

 

Resurrection, Deliverance and Salvation

 

 

We read in the Book of Exodus another event (deliverance and shadows of the Messiah) on the 17th of Aviv / Nisan:

 

Exod. 14 [24] And it came to pass, that in the morning watch Yehovah looked unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,

[25] And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for Yehovah fighteth for them against the Egyptians.

[26] And Yehovah said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.

[27] And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and Yehovah overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

[28] And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.

[29] But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

[30] Thus Yehovah saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.

[31] And Israel saw that great work which Yehovah did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared Yehovah, and believed Yehovah, and his servant Moses.

-----------------

Yeshua was raised on the third day, in the morning - the 17th of Aviv / Nisan and delivered us!

 

Mark 16 [2] And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

[9] Now when Yeshua was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.

 

As you can see, the scriptures have a central theme of Resurrection, Deliverance and Salvation

 

-----------------

Beware of the life you so-call live, check for:

False data, false people, false situations, propaganda, misinformation, disinformation, forged documents, fabrications, and misdirection!

You might find yourself painted in the wrong picture

L

--------------

Always remind each other about the ways of God

Lest we forget about the God of Israel!

Seek and search out the truth

Remember:

The God of Israel is hidden

The God of Israel's land is given away

The God of Israel's true people are hidden

The God of Israel's true Messiah, the Word of God are hidden

The God of Israel's justice and judgments are hidden

The God of Israel's torah / laws, commandments are hidden

The God of Israel's feasts are hidden

The God of Israel's Sabbath is hidden

The God of Israel's food laws are hidden

The God of Israel's calendar is hidden

** In most bibles, from the Hebrew TaNak, in English the word Yah / Jah is only one time in Psalm 68:4 (over 50 times missing) – and the word Yehovah is only 7 times.  (over 6500 times missing) All the other many times the Hebrew words Yah and Yehovah are replaced by either the words LORD or GOD.

** In most bibles, “Yah and Yehovah” are missing in both the Greek and English, in all the Gospels and Letters.

and so much more…

 

Jer.23 [27] Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.

-------------

In closing: We shall read the book of Esther later today, join us.

 

All that joined themselves to the God of Israel prepare for the Spring Feasts and Holy days.

One God for All

 

We are all "One in Messiah"

 

Shabbat Shalom
