New moon, Sunday, 17 of September 2023

 

The seventh month, ha Ethanim 1

 

Today’s topic

A memorial of blowing of trumpets

a Sabbath

 

Lev. 23 [23] And Yehovah spoke unto Moses, saying,
[24] Speak unto the children of Israel, saying
, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall you have a Sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
[25] Ye shall do no servile work therein: but you shall offer an offering made by fire unto Yehovah.

וַיְדַבֵּר יְהוָה, אֶל-מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹר.

דַּבֵּר אֶל-בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, לֵאמֹר: בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי בְּאֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ, יִהְיֶה לָכֶם שַׁבָּתוֹן--זִכְרוֹן תְּרוּעָה, מִקְרָא-קֹדֶשׁ.

כָּל-מְלֶאכֶת עֲבֹדָה, לֹא תַעֲשׂוּ; וְהִקְרַבְתֶּם אִשֶּׁה, לַיהוָה

 

Let's look at a few vocabulary words

Memorial: זכרון  zikrôn, zik-rone', a memento (or memorable thing, day or writing):  memorial, record.

זכר zâkar, zaw-kar' :A primitive root; properly to mark (so as to be recognized), that is, to remember; by implication to mention; be mindful, recount, record.

 

Sabbath: שׁבּתון shabbâthôn: a special holy day: - rest, Sabbath

 

Trumpets: תּרוּעה  teruah: alarm, signal, sound of tempest, shout, shout or blast of war or alarm or joy, alarm of war, war-cry, battle-cry,  blast (for to march) shout of joy, (with religious impulse), clamor, that is, acclamation of joy or a battle cry; especially clangor of trumpets, as an alarum: - alarm, blow (-ing) (of, the) (trumpets), joy, jubile, loud noise, rejoicing, shout (-ing), (high, joyful) sound (-ing).

Holy Convocation מִקְרָא-קֹדֶשׁ

Holy: qôdesh, ko'-desh קֹדֶשׁ set-apartness to God, separateness to God, sacredness to God, holiness of God

 

Convocation מִקְרָא mik-raw - something called out, that is, a public meeting (the act, the persons, or the place); also a rehearsal: - assembly, calling, convocation, reading

 

Servile work- melakat avodah   מְלֶאכֶת עֲבֹדָה

עֲבֹדָה avodah - work of any kind: act, bondservant, labour, service,  tillage, work

מְלֶאכֶת  -  melakat - occupation, work, business public business

 

This seventh month, ha Ethanim and its holy days and feast are at the end of the last harvest, towards the end of the year.

Notice how Judaism is wrong by saying this is the New Year when God says it’s the end of the harvest, the end of the year.

Exod.23 [16] And the feast of harvest, the first fruits of your labors, which you have sown in the field: and the feast of ingathering, (tabernacles), which is in the end of the year, when you have gathered in your labors out of the field.

Exod.34 [22] And you shall observe the feast of weeks, of the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering (tabernacles) at the year's end.

 

Shadows of “things to come”

 

The feasts and holydays of Yehovah are all about the Messiah

 

Saul wrote this letter to the Colossians about 2000 years ago

 

Colossians 2:16: Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday , or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17: Which are a shadow of "things to come" (future tense); but the body is of Messiah / Christ.

 

 

Again let's go over a few words here in Greek:

judge - κρινω krino: to try to condemn, to separate, put asunder, to pick out, to be of opinion, judge, to pronounce an opinion concerning right and wrong, to contend, to dispute

 

holyday - εορτη heorte -heh-or-tay' - a festival: - feast, holyday.

 

shadow - σκια skia : shadow, an image cast by an object and representing the form of that object, a sketch, outline

 

new moon -noumēnia  νουμηνία - noo-may-nee'-ah -  the new moon

 

meat - βρῶσις brōsis - that which is eaten, clean food

 

Sabbath days - sabbaton - σάββατον - sab'-bat-on  - the Sabbath or day of weekly repose from secular avocations - sabbath days during the holydays or feasts.

 

Remember: The word Tishri that Judaism calls this month is "NOT" in scripture, it is from Babylon and their pagan feasts.

 

 

Blow the trumpet! - Time to "Be alert"

 

Let’s remember these trumpets again:

 

Exod. 19

[1] In the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they into the wilderness of Sinai.
[2] For they were departed from Rephidim, and were come to the desert of Sinai, and had pitched in the wilderness; and there Israel camped before the mount.
[3] And Moses went up unto God, and Yehovah called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shall you say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel;
[4] Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.
[5] Now therefore, if you will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then you shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
[6] And you shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which you shall speak unto the children of Israel.

[7] And Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before their faces all these words which Yehovah commanded him.
[8] And all the people answered together, and said, All that Yehovah had spoken we will do. And Moses returned the words of the people unto Yehovah.
[9] And Yehovah said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and believe you forever. And Moses told the words of the people unto Yehovah.
[10] And Yehovah said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes,
[11] And be ready against the third day: for the third day Yehovah will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.


[12] And you shall set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that you go not up into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever touches the mount shall be surely put to death:
[13] There shall not an hand touch it, but he shall surely be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man, it shall not live: 
when the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mount.
[14] And Moses went down from the mount unto the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.
[15] And he said unto the people, Be ready against the third day: come not at your wives.
[16] And it came to pass on the third day in the morning, that there were thunders and lightning, and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud; so that all the people that was in the camp trembled.


[17] And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount.
[18] And Mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because Yehovah descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.
[19] And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long and waxed louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
[20] And Yehovah came down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the mount: and Yehovah called Moses up to the top of the mount; and Moses went up.

 

Pluralities of God:


[21] And Yehovah said unto Moses, Go down, charge the people, lest they break through unto Yehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.
[22] And let the priests also, which come near to Yehovah, sanctify themselves, lest Yehovah break forth upon them.
[23] And Moses said unto Yehovah, The people cannot come up to Mount Sinai: for you charged us, saying, Set bounds about the mount, and sanctify it.
[24] And Yehovah said unto him, Away, get you down, and you shall come up, you, and Aaron with you: but let not the priests and the people break through to come up unto Yehovah, lest he break forth upon them.
[25] So Moses went down unto the people, and spoke unto them.

 

 

Memorial - Let's remember this of blowing of trumpets

 

Joshua 6 – A Picture of the end

 

1 Now Jericho was straightly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.

2 And Yehovah said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valor.

3 And you shall compass the city, all you men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shall you do six days.

4 And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day you shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.

5 And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him. (Just like 1Thessalonians 4:16 -18)

6 And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the Ark of the Covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Yehovah.

7 And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of Yehovah.

8 And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before Yehovah, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of Yehovah followed them.

9 And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rereward came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

10 And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall you shout.

11 So the ark of Yehovah compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.

12 And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of Yehovah.

13 And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Yehovah went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rereward came after the ark of Yehovah, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

14 And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.

15 And it came to pass on the seventh day , that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times : only on that day they compassed the city seven times.

16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for Yehovah had given you the city.

17 And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to Yehovah: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.

18 And you, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest you make yourselves accursed, when you take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

19 But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto Yehovah: they shall come into the treasury of Yehovah.

20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

21 And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword. (Sinners lost)

22 But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she had, as you sware unto her.

23 And the young men that were spies went in, and brought Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.

24 And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of Yehovah.

25 And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

26 And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, cursed be the man before Yehovah, that riseth up and builds this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.

27 So Yehovah was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.

 

Let’s look forward for these trumpets in the future

The Lord Yeshua shall descend from heaven!

1 Thes. 4 [13] But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that you sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
[14] For if we believe that Yeshua died and rose again, even so them also which sleep (are dead) in Yeshua will God bring with him.
[15] For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (go before) them which are asleep. (are dead)

 

[16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Messiah shall rise first:
[17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


[18] Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

 

We shall rise, be changed - The resurrection of the dead

1 Cor. 15 [42] … the resurrection of the dead, It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

[43] It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

[44] It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

[45] And so it is written, the first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

[46] Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

 

[47] The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is (like) the Lord from heaven.

 

[48] As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
[49] And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.


[50] Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

[51] Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep (die), but we shall all be changed,


[52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eyeat the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.


[53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
[54] So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, and then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
[55] O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?
[56] The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
[57] But thanks are to God, which gives us the victory through our Lord Yeshua the 
Messiah.
[58] Therefore, my beloved brethren, be you steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

 

Matthew 24: 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

 

Revelation 8:2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.

 

Revelation 10:7 But (and) in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he had declared to his servants the prophets.

 

In conclusion for today:

Remember; beware of false teachers that copy each other such as:

Judaism

Messianics that follow Judaism

Messianics that follow Karaites

Protestant Gentile teachers that follow Messianics that follow Karaites or Judaism

Watch out for all those who “charge you money” for anything pertaining to God. – WRONG

 

Here is what some of them say:

Some already did the new moon last week – WRONG

Some call this the new year, Rosh ha Shanna – WRONG

Some call this month Adam’s birthday  WRONG

Some call this month the month the earth was created – WRONG

Some call this month Tishri – WRONG

Jewish New Year 5784  WRONG

Judaism says on the Day of Atonement, you can fast and that is sufficient to take away your sins – WRONG

Judaism says on the Day of Atonement so many other unscriptural things.

All the above are lies – Sin

Read your scriptures (KJV in English)

Onward toward a day of atonement

Shabbat Shalom
