Shabbat Shalom Loved One!

Last week we learned about the Torah Cycle as a beaten path as YHWH downloads more revealed truth to us. This week we do triple time reading and due to the volume of reading I have arranged so that we read the entire Torah, then the entire Haftorah (Prophets), and finally the Brit-Chadasha (New Covenant)- so let’s get right to it.

Should not we also read His Instructions (Torah) on His set-apart day?

(Luke 4:16) And He came to Natsareth, where He had been brought up. And according to His practice, He went into the congregation on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.


This week’s Torah Scriptures:

Kedoshim- Holy Ones: Leviticus 19:1- 20:27 and Isaiah 66:1-24, 1 Peter 1:13-16;

Emor-Say Leviticus 21:-24:23 and Ezekiel 44:15-31; 1 Peter 2:4-10;

Behar- Leviticus 25:1-26:2, Jeremiah 32:6-27, and Luke 4:16



Set Apart- Holy Ones! SIDE NOTE: Keep His TEN WORDS- COMMANDS! The first four commands teach us how to love YHWH with all our hearts and the last six show us how to love our neighbor as ourselves.

(Mat 22:36) “Teacher which is the great command in the Torah?”(Mat 22:37) And יהושע said to him, “‘you shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with your entire mind.’ (Mat 22:38) “This is the first and great command. (Mat 22:39) “And the second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ (Mat 22:40) “On these two commands hang all the Torah and the Prophets.”



We are commanded to stay away from all forms of idolatry-keep His Sabbaths- to be merciful and remember the poor and stranger-

(Lev 19:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 19:2) “Speak to all the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘Be set-apart, for I יהוה your Elohim am set-apart. (Lev 19:3) ‘Each one of you should fear his mother and his father, and guard My Sabbaths. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 19:4) ‘Do not turn to idols, and do not make for yourselves molded mighty ones. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 19:5) ‘And when you bring a peace offering to יהוה, bring it for your acceptance. (Lev 19:6) ‘It is eaten the same day you slaughter it, and on the next day. And that which is left on the third day is burned with fire. (Lev 19:7) ‘So if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable, it is not accepted, (Lev 19:8) and he who eats it bears his crookedness, because he has profaned the set-apart offering of יהוה, and that being shall be cut off from his people. (Lev 19:9) ‘And when you reap the harvest of your land, do not completely reap the corners of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. (Lev 19:10) ‘And do not glean your vineyard or gather every grape of your vineyard, leave them for the poor and the stranger. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 19:11) ‘Do not steal, do not lie, do not deceive one another. (Lev 19:12) ‘And do not swear falsely by my Name and so profane the Name of your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Lev 19:13) ‘Do not oppress your neighbor or rob him. The wages of him who is hired is not to remain with you all night until morning. (Lev 19:14) ‘Do not curse the deaf or put a stumbling-block before the blind, but fear your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Lev 19:15) ‘Do no unrighteousness in right-ruling. Do not be partial to the poor or favor the face of the great, but rightly rule your neighbor in righteousness. (Lev 19:16) ‘Do not go slandering among your people. Do not stand against the blood of your neighbor. I am יהוה. (Lev 19:17) ‘Do not hate your brother in your heart. Reprove your neighbor, for certain, and bear no sin because of him. (Lev 19:18) ‘Do not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the children of your people. And you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am יהוה. (Lev 19:19) ‘Guard my laws. Do not let your livestock mate with another kind. Do not sow your field with mixed seed. And do not put a garment woven of two sorts of thread upon you. (Lev 19:20) ‘And when a man has intercourse with a woman who is a female servant, engaged to a man, and who has not at all been ransomed nor redeemed, there should be an inquiry. But they are not put to death, because she was not free. (Lev 19:21) ‘And he shall bring his guilt offering to יהוה, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, a ram as a guilt offering. (Lev 19:22) ‘And the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before יהוה for his sin which he has done. And the sin which he has sinned shall be forgiven him.



(Lev 19:23) ‘And when you come into the land, and have planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall reckon their fruit as uncircumcised. For three years it is as uncircumcised to you, it is not eaten. (Lev 19:24) ‘And in the fourth year all its fruit is set-apart – praises to יהוה. (Lev 19:25) ‘And in the fifth year you eat its fruit, so that it increases its yield to you. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 19:26) ‘Do not eat meat with the blood. Do not practice divination or magic. (Lev 19:27) ‘Do not round the corner of your head, nor destroy the corner of your beard. (Lev 19:28) ‘And do not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor put tattoo marks on you. I am יהוה. (Lev 19:29) ‘Do not profane your daughter by making her a whore, so that the land does not whore, and the land becomes filled with wickedness. (Lev 19:30) ‘Guard My Sabbaths and reverence my set-apart place. I am יהוה. (Lev 19:31) ‘Do not turn to mediums, and do not seek after spiritists to be defiled by them. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 19:32) ‘Rise up before the grey-headed. And you shall favor the face of an old man, and shall fear your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Lev 19:33) ‘And when a stranger sojourns with you in your land, do not oppress him. (Lev 19:34) ‘Let the stranger who dwells among you be to you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself. For you were strangers in the land of Mitsrayim. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 19:35) ‘Do no unrighteousness in right-ruling, in measurement of length, in weight, or in measuring liquids. (Lev 19:36) ‘Have right scales, right weights, a right ĕphah, and a right hin. I am יהוה your Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim. (Lev 19:37) ‘And you shall guard all my laws and all my right-rulings, and do them. I am יהוה.’ ”



(Lev 20:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 20:2) “Say to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘Any man of the children of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn in Yisra’ĕl, who gives any of his offspring to Moleḵ, shall certainly be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones. (Lev 20:3) ‘And I, I shall set my face against that man, and shall cut him off from the midst of his people, because he has given of his offspring to Moleḵ, so as to defile My set-apart place and to profane my set-apart Name. (Lev 20:4) ‘And if the people of the land at all hide their eyes from the man, as he gives any of his offspring to Moleḵ, and they do not kill him, (Lev 20:5) then I shall set My face against that man and against his clan, and shall cut him off – and all who go whoring after him, even go whoring after Moleḵ – from the midst of their people. (Lev 20:6) ‘And the being who turns to mediums, and to spiritists, to go whoring after them, I shall set my face against that being and cut him off from the midst of his people. (Lev 20:7) ‘And you shall set yourselves apart, and shall be set-apart, for I am יהוה your Elohim, (Lev 20:8) and you shall guard my laws and do them. I am יהוה, who sets you apart. (Lev 20:9) ‘For everyone who curses his father or his mother shall certainly be put to death – he has cursed his father or his mother, his blood is on him. (Lev 20:10) ‘And a man who commits adultery with the wife of another man, who commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor: the adulterer and the adulteress shall certainly be put to death.





(Lev 20:11) ‘And a man who lies with the wife of his father has uncovered the nakedness of his father, both of them shall certainly be put to death, their blood is upon them. (Lev 20:12) ‘And a man who lies with his daughter-in-law: both of them shall certainly be put to death, they have made confusion, their blood is upon them. (Lev 20:13) ‘And a man who lies with a male as he lies with a woman: both of them have done an abomination, they shall certainly be put to death, their blood is upon them. (Lev 20:14) ‘And a man who marries a woman and her mother: it is wickedness, they are burned with fire, both he and they, that there be no wickedness in your midst. (Lev 20:15) ‘And a man who has intercourse with a beast: he shall certainly be put to death, and the beast you kill. (Lev 20:16) ‘And a woman who approaches any beast and mates with it: you shall kill the woman and the beast, they shall certainly be put to death, their blood is upon them. (Lev 20:17) ‘And a man who takes his sister, his father’s daughter or his mother’s daughter, and sees her nakedness and she sees his nakedness: it is wickedness, and they shall be cut off before the eyes of their people. He has uncovered his sister’s nakedness, he bears his crookedness. (Lev 20:18) ‘And a man who lies with a woman during her sickness and uncovers her nakedness: he has laid bare her flow, and she has uncovered the flow of her blood, both of them shall be cut off from the midst of their people. (Lev 20:19) ‘And do not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister nor of your father’s sister, for that is laying bare one’s own flesh, they bear their crookedness. (Lev 20:20) ‘And a man who lies with his uncle’s wife: he has uncovered his uncle’s nakedness, they bear their sin, and they die childless. (Lev 20:21) ‘And a man who takes his brother’s wife: it is uncleanness, he has uncovered his brother’s nakedness, they are childless. (Lev 20:22) ‘And you shall guard all my laws and all My right-rulings, and do them, so that the land where I am bringing you to dwell does not vomit you out. (Lev 20:23) ‘And do not walk in the laws of the nation which I am driving out before you, for they do all these, and therefore I loathed them. (Lev 20:24) ‘But I say to you, “You are going to possess their land, and I myself give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am יהוה your Elohim, who has separated you from the peoples. (Lev 20:25) ‘And you shall make a distinction between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean birds and clean. And do not make yourselves abominable by beast or by bird, or whatever creeps on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean. (Lev 20:26) ‘And you shall be set-apart to me, for I יהוה am set-apart, and have separated you from the peoples to be Mine. (Lev 20:27) ‘And a man or a woman in whom there is a medium, or who are spiritists, shall certainly be put to death, they are to stone them with stones. Their blood is upon them.’ ” (Lev 21:1) and יהוה said to Mosheh, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aharon, and say to them: ‘No one is to be defiled for the dead among his people, (Lev 21:2) except for his relatives who are nearest to him: for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother; (Lev 21:3) and for his maiden sister who is near to him, who has had no husband – for her he is defiled. (Lev 21:4) ‘A leader does not defile himself among his people, to profane himself; (Lev 21:5) they do not make any bald place on their heads, and they do not shave the corner of their beard, and they do not make a cutting in their flesh. (Lev 21:6) ‘They are set-apart to their Elohim and do not profane the Name of their Elohim, for they bring the offerings of יהוה made by fire, and the bread of their Elohim, and shall be set-apart. (Lev 21:7) ‘They do not take a woman who is a whore or a defiled woman, and they do not take a woman put away from her husband, for he is set-apart to his Elohim. (Lev 21:8) ‘And you shall set him apart, for he brings the bread of your Elohim, he is set-apart to you. For I, יהוה, setting you apart, am set-apart. (Lev 21:9) ‘And when the daughter of any priest profanes herself by whoring, she profanes her father. She is burned with fire. (Lev 21:10) ‘And the high priest among his brothers, on whose head the anointing oil was poured and who is ordained to wear the garments, does not unbind his head nor tear his garments, (Lev 21:11) nor come near any dead body, nor defile himself for his father or his mother,(Lev 21:12) nor go out of the set-apart place, nor profane the set-apart place of his Elohim, for the sign of dedication of the anointing oil of his Elohim is upon him. I am יהוה. (Lev 21:13) ‘And let him take a wife in her maidenhood. (Lev 21:14) ‘A widow or one put away or a defiled woman or a whore – these he does not take. But a maiden of his own people he does take as a wife. (Lev 21:15) ‘And he does not profane his offspring among his people, for I am יהוה, who sets him apart.’ ”



(Lev 21:16) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 21:17) “Speak to Aharon, saying, ‘No man of your offspring throughout their generations, who has any defect, is to draw near to bring the bread of his Elohim. (Lev 21:18) ‘For any man who has a defect is not to draw near: a man blind or one lame or disfigured or deformed, (Lev 21:19) a man who has a broken foot or broken hand, (Lev 21:20) or is a hunchback or a dwarf, or a man who has a defect in his eye, or eczema or scab, or is a eunuch. (Lev 21:21) ‘No man among the offspring of Aharon the priest, who has a defect, is to come near to bring the offerings made by fire to יהוה – he has a defect, he does not come near to bring the bread of his Elohim. (Lev 21:22) ‘He does eat the bread of his Elohim, both the most set-apart and the set-apart, (Lev 21:23) only, he does not go near the veil or approach the altar, because he has a defect, lest he profanes my set-apart places. I am יהוה, who sets them apart.’ ” (Lev 21:24) Thus Mosheh spoke to Aharon and his sons, and to all the children of Yisra’ĕl.



(Lev 22:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 22:2) “Speak to Aharon and his sons, that they separate themselves from the set-apart offerings of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and that they do not profane My set-apart Name in what they set apart to Me. I am יהוה. (Lev 22:3) “Say to them, ‘Any man of all your offspring throughout your generations who draws near the set-apart offerings which the children of Yisra’ĕl set apart to יהוה, while he has uncleanness upon him, that being shall be cut off from before Me. I am יהוה. (Lev 22:4) ‘Any man who is the offspring of Aharon, who is a leper or has a discharge, does not eat the set-apart offerings until he is clean. And whoever touches what is rendered unclean by a corpse, or a man who has had an emission of semen, (Lev 22:5) or a man who touches any creeping creature by which he would be made unclean, or any being by whom he would become unclean, even any of his uncleanness; (Lev 22:6) the being who has touched it shall be unclean until evening, and does not eat the set-apart offerings, but shall bathe his body in water. (Lev 22:7) ‘And when the sun goes down he shall be clean, and afterward eat the set-apart offerings, because it is his food. (Lev 22:8) ‘He does not eat that which dies or is torn by beasts, becoming unclean by it. I am יהוה. (Lev 22:9) ‘And they shall guard My Charge, lest they bear sin for it and die thereby, when they profane it. I יהוה set them apart. (Lev 22:10) ‘And no stranger eats the set-apart offering. A sojourner with the priest, or a hired servant, does not eat the set-apart offering. (Lev 22:11) ‘But when the priest buys a being with his money, he does eat of it. And one who is born in his house does eat his food. (Lev 22:12) ‘And when a priest’s daughter is married to a stranger, she does not eat of the set-apart offerings. (Lev 22:13) ‘But when a priest’s daughter is a widow or put away, and has no child, and has returned to her father’s house as in her youth, she does eat her father’s food, but no stranger eats of it. (Lev 22:14) ‘And when a man eats the set-apart offering by mistake, then he shall give a set-apart offering to the priest, and add one-fifth to it. (Lev 22:15) ‘And let the priests not profane the set-apart offerings of the children of Yisra’ĕl, which they lift up to יהוה, (Lev 22:16) or allow them to bear the crookedness of trespass when they eat their set-apart offerings. I am יהוה, who sets them apart.’ ”





(Lev 22:17) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 22:18) “Speak to Aharon and his sons, and to all the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘Any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers in Yisra’ĕl, who brings his offering for any of his vows or for any of his voluntary offerings, which they bring to יהוה as a burnt offering, (Lev 22:19) for your acceptance, is a male, a perfect one from the cattle, from the sheep, or from the goats. (Lev 22:20) ‘Whatever has a defect, you do not bring, for it is not acceptable for you. (Lev 22:21) ‘And when a man brings a peace offering to יהוה, to complete a vow, or a voluntary offering from the cattle or the sheep, it is to be perfect to be accepted, let there be no defect in it. (Lev 22:22) ‘Those blind or broken or having a cut, or have an ulcer or eczema or scabs, you do not bring to יהוה, nor make an offering by fire of them on the altar to יהוה. (Lev 22:23) ‘As for a bull or a lamb that has any limb deformed or dwarfed you do prepare as a voluntary offering, but for a vow it is not accepted. (Lev 22:24) ‘Do not bring to יהוה what is bruised or crushed, or torn or cut, nor do it in your land. (Lev 22:25) ‘And from a son of a stranger’s hand you do not bring any of these as the bread of your Elohim, for their corruption is in them, and defects are in them, they are not acceptable for you.’ ” (Lev 22:26) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 22:27) “When a bull or a sheep or a goat is born, it shall be seven days with its mother. And from the eighth day and thereafter it is acceptable as an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Lev 22:28) “But do not slaughter a cow or a sheep and its young on the same day. (Lev 22:29) “And when you bring a slaughtering of thanksgiving to יהוה, bring it for your acceptance. (Lev 22:30) “It is eaten that same day, leave none of it till morning. I am יהוה. (Lev 22:31) “And you shall guard My commands and do them. I am יהוה. (Lev 22:32) “And do not profane my set-apart Name, and I shall be set-apart among the children of Yisra’ĕl. I am יהוה, who sets you apart, (Lev 22:33) who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, to be your Elohim. I am יהוה.” (Lev 23:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 23:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘The appointed times of יהוה, which you are to proclaim as set-apart gatherings, My appointed times, are these: (Lev 23:3) ‘Six days work is done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, a set-apart gathering. You do no work; it is a Sabbath to יהוה in all your dwellings.



Set Apart Appointments with our KING!



(Lev 23:4) ‘These are the appointed times of יהוה, set-apart gatherings which you are to proclaim at their appointed times.





(Lev 23:5) ‘In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, is the Passover to יהוה. (Lev 23:6) ‘And on the fifteenth day of this month is the Festival of Unleavened Bread to יהוה – seven days you eat unleavened bread. (Lev 23:7) ‘On the first day you have a set-apart gathering, you do no servile work. (Lev 23:8) ‘And you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה for seven days. On the seventh day is a set-apart gathering, you do no servile work.’ ”



(Lev 23:9) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 23:10) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and you shall say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I give you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest to the priest. (Lev 23:11) ‘And he shall wave the sheaf before יהוה, for your acceptance. On the morrow after the Sabbath the priest waves it. (Lev 23:12) ‘And on that day when you wave the sheaf, you shall prepare a male lamb a year old, a perfect one, as a burnt offering to יהוה, (Lev 23:13) and its grain offering: two-tenths of an ĕphah of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to יהוה, a sweet fragrance, and its drink offering: one-fourth of a hin of wine. (Lev 23:14) ‘And you do not eat bread or roasted grain or fresh grain until the same day that you have brought an offering to your Elohim – a law forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. (Lev 23:15) ‘And from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, you shall count for yourselves: seven completed Sabbaths. (Lev 23:16) ‘Until the morrow after the seventh Sabbath you count fifty days, then you shall bring a new grain offering to יהוה. (Lev 23:17) ‘Bring from your dwellings for a wave offering two loaves of bread, of two-tenths of an ĕphah of fine flour they are, baked with leaven, first-fruits to יהוה. (Lev 23:18) ‘And besides the bread, you shall bring seven lambs a year old, perfect ones, and one young bull and two rams. They are a burnt offering to יהוה, with their grain offering and their drink offerings, an offering made by fire for a sweet fragrance to יהוה. (Lev 23:19) ‘And you shall offer one male goat as a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old, as a peace offering. (Lev 23:20) ‘And the priest shall wave them, besides the bread of the first-fruits, as a wave offering before יהוה, besides the two lambs. They are set-apart to יהוה for the priest. (Lev 23:21) ‘And on this same day you shall proclaim a set-apart gathering for yourselves, you do no servile work on it – a law forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations. (Lev 23:22) ‘And when you reap the harvest of your land do not completely reap the corners of your field when you reap, and do not gather any gleaning from your harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the stranger. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ”



(Lev 23:23) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 23:24) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you have a rest, a remembrance of blowing of trumpets, a set-apart gathering. (Lev 23:25) ‘You do no servile work, and you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה.’ ” (Lev 23:26) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 23:27) “On the tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. It shall be a set-apart gathering for you. And you shall afflict your beings, and shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Lev 23:28) “And you do no work on that same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 23:29) “For any being who is not afflicted on that same day, he shall be cut off from his people. (Lev 23:30) “And any being who does any work on that same day, that being I shall destroy from the midst of his people. (Lev 23:31) “You do no work – a law forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. (Lev 23:32) ‘It is a Sabbath of rest to you, and you shall afflict your beings. On the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you observe your Sabbath.”



(Lev 23:33) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 23:34) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the Festival of Booths for seven days to יהוה. (Lev 23:35) ‘On the first day is a set-apart gathering, you do no servile work. (Lev 23:36) ‘For seven days you bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. On the eighth day there shall be a set-apart gathering for you, and you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. It is a closing festival, you do no servile work.



(Lev 23:37) ‘These are the appointed times of יהוה which you proclaim as set-apart gatherings, to bring an offering made by fire to יהוה, a burnt offering and a grain offering, a slaughtering and drink offerings, as commanded for every day – (Lev 23:38) besides the Sabbaths of יהוה, and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your voluntary offerings which you give to יהוה.



(Lev 23:39) ‘On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you gather in the fruit of the land, observe the festival of יהוה for seven days. On the first day is a rest, and on the eighth day a rest. (Lev 23:40) ‘And you shall take for yourselves on the first day the fruit of good trees, branches of palm trees, twigs of leafy trees, and willows of the stream, and shall rejoice before יהוה your Elohim for seven days. (Lev 23:41) ‘And you shall observe it as a festival to יהוה for seven days in the year – a law forever in your generations. Observe it in the seventh month. (Lev 23:42) ‘Dwell in booths for seven days; all who are native Yisra’ĕlites dwell in booths, (Lev 23:43) so that your generations know that I made the children of Yisra’ĕl dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Mitsrayim. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ” (Lev 23:44) Thus did Mosheh speak of the appointed times of יהוה to the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Lev 24:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 24:2) “Command the children of Yisra’ĕl that they bring to you clear oil of pressed olives for the light, to make the lamps burn continually. (Lev 24:3) “Outside the veil of the Witness, in the Tent of Meeting, Aharon is to arrange it from evening until morning before יהוה continually – a law forever throughout your generations. (Lev 24:4) “He is to arrange the lamps on the clean gold lampstand before יהוה continually. (Lev 24:5) “And you shall take fine flour and bake twelve cakes with it, two-tenths of an ĕphah in each cake. (Lev 24:6) “And you shall set them in two rows, six in a row, on the clean table before יהוה. (Lev 24:7) “And you shall put clear frankincense on each row, and it shall be on the bread as a remembrance portion, an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Lev 24:8) “On every Sabbath he is to arrange it before יהוה continually, from the children of Yisra’ĕl – an everlasting covenant. (Lev 24:9) “And it shall be for Aharon and his sons, and they shall eat it in the set-apart place, because it is most set-apart to him from the offerings of יהוה made by fire – an everlasting law.” (Lev 24:10) And the son of an Yisra’ĕlite woman, whose father was a Mitsrite, went out among the children of Yisra’ĕl. And the Yisra’ĕlite woman’s son and a man of Yisra’ĕl strove in the camp. (Lev 24:11) And the Yisra’ĕlite woman’s son blasphemed the Name, and cursed. So they brought him to Mosheh. Now his mother’s name was Shelomith the daughter of Diḇri, of the tribe of Dan. (Lev 24:12) And they put him in under guard, that it might be declared to them at the mouth of יהוה. (Lev 24:13) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 24:14) “Bring the one who has cursed outside the camp, and all those who heard him shall lay their hands on his head, and all the congregation shall stone him. (Lev 24:15) “And speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘Anyone who curses his Elohim shall bear his sin. (Lev 24:16) ‘And he who blasphemes the Name of יהוה shall certainly be put to death, and the entire congregation shall certainly stone him, the stranger as well as the native. When he blasphemes the Name, he is put to death. (Lev 24:17) ‘And he who smites the life from any man shall certainly be put to death. (Lev 24:18) ‘And he who smites a beast repays it, body for body.





(Lev 24:19) ‘And when a man inflicts a blemish upon his neighbor, as he has done so it is done to him: (Lev 24:20) ‘Fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he inflicts a blemish upon him, so it is done to him. (Lev 24:21) ‘And he who smites a beast repays it, and he who smites a man to death is put to death. (Lev 24:22) ‘You are to have one right-ruling, for the stranger and for the native, for I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ” (Lev 24:23) And Mosheh spoke to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and they brought the one who cursed outside the camp, and stoned him with stones. And the children of Yisra’ĕl did as יהוה commanded Mosheh. (Lev 25:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh on Mount Sinai, saying, (Lev 25:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I give you, then the land shall observe a Sabbath to יהוה. (Lev 25:3) ‘Six years you sow your field, and six years you prune your vineyard, and gather in its fruit, (Lev 25:4) but in the seventh year the land is to have a Sabbath of rest, a Sabbath to יהוה. Do not sow your field and do not prune your vineyard. (Lev 25:5) ‘Do not reap what grows of its own of your harvest, and do not gather the grapes of your unpruned vine, for it is a year of rest for the land. (Lev 25:6) ‘And the Sabbath of the land shall be to you for food, for you and your servant, and for your female servant and your hired servant, and for the stranger who sojourns with you, (Lev 25:7) and for your livestock and the beasts that are in your land. All its crops are for food. (Lev 25:8) ‘And you shall count seven Sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years. And the time of the seven Sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years. (Lev 25:9) ‘You shall then sound a ram’s horn to pass through on the tenth day of the seventh month, on the Day of Atonement cause a ram’s horn to pass through all your land. (Lev 25:10) ‘And you shall set the fiftieth year apart, and proclaim release throughout all the land to all its inhabitants, it is a Jubilee for you. And each of you shall return to his possession and each of you return to his clan. (Lev 25:11) ‘The fiftieth year is a Jubilee to you. Do not sow, nor reap what grows of its own, nor gather from its unpruned vine. (Lev 25:12) ‘It is a Jubilee, it is set-apart to you. Eat from the field its crops. (Lev 25:13) ‘In the Year of this Jubilee let each one of you return to his possession. (Lev 25:14) ‘And when you sell whatever to your neighbor or buy from the hand of your neighbor, do not exploit one another. (Lev 25:15) ‘According to the number of years after the Jubilee you buy from your neighbor, and according to the number of years of crops he sells to you. (Lev 25:16) ‘According to the greater number of years you increase its price, and according to the fewer number of years you diminish its price, because he sells to you according to the number of the years of the crops. (Lev 25:17) ‘And do not oppress one another, but you shall fear your Elohim. For I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 25:18) ‘And you shall do my laws and guard My right-rulings, and shall do them. And you shall dwell in the land in safety, (Lev 25:19) ‘and the land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat to satisfaction, and shall dwell there in safety. (Lev 25:20) ‘And since you might say, “What do we eat in the seventh year, since we do not sow nor gather in our crops?” (Lev 25:21) ‘Therefore I have commanded my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth the crop for three years. (Lev 25:22) ‘And you shall sow in the eighth year, and eat of the old crop until the ninth year. Eat of the old until its crop comes in. (Lev 25:23) ‘And the land is not to be sold beyond reclaim, for the land is Mine, for you are sojourners and settlers with Me. (Lev 25:24) ‘And provide for a redemption for the land, in all the land of your possession. (Lev 25:25) ‘When your brother becomes poor, and has sold some of his possession, and his redeemer, a close relative comes to redeem it, and then he shall redeem what his brother sold. (Lev 25:26) ‘And when the man has no one to redeem it, but he himself becomes able to redeem it, (Lev 25:27) then let him count the years since its sale, and return the remainder to the man to whom he sold it, that he shall return to his possession. (Lev 25:28) ‘And if his hand has not found enough to give back to him, then what was sold shall remain in the hand of him who bought it until the Year of Jubilee. And it shall be released in the Jubilee, and he shall return to his possession. (Lev 25:29) ‘And when a man sells a house in a walled city, then his right of redemption shall be at the end of the year after it is sold. His right of redemption lasts a year. (Lev 25:30) ‘But if it is not redeemed within a complete year, then the house in the walled city shall be established beyond reclaim to the buyer of it, throughout his generations. It is not released in the Jubilee. (Lev 25:31) ‘The houses of villages, however, which have no wall around them are reckoned as the field of the country. A right of redemption belongs to it, and they are released in the Jubilee. (Lev 25:32) ‘As for the cities of the Lĕwites, and the houses in the cities of their possession, the Lĕwites have a right of redemption forever. (Lev 25:33) ‘And that which is redeemed from the Lĕwites, both the sale of a house and the city of his possession shall be released in the Year of Jubilee, because the houses in the cities of the Lĕwites are their possession in the midst of the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Lev 25:34) ‘But the field of the open land of their cities is not sold, for it is their everlasting possession. (Lev 25:35) ‘And when your brother becomes poor, and his hand has failed with you, then you shall sustain him, and he shall live with you, like a stranger or a sojourner.



(Lev 25:36) ‘Take no interest from him, or profit, but you shall fear your Elohim, and your brother shall live with you. (Lev 25:37) ‘Do not lend him your silver on interest, and do not lend him your food for profit. (Lev 25:38) ‘I am יהוה your Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, to give you the land of Kenaʽan, to be your Elohim. (Lev 25:39) ‘And when your brother who dwells by you becomes poor, and sells himself to you, do not make him serve as a slave. (Lev 25:40) ‘But as a hired servant, as a settler he is with you, and serves you until the Year of Jubilee. (Lev 25:41) ‘And then he shall leave you, he and his children with him, and shall return to his own clan, even return to the possession of his fathers. (Lev 25:42) ‘For they are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Mitsrayim, they are not sold as slaves. (Lev 25:43) ‘Do not rule over him with harshness, but you shall fear your Elohim. (Lev 25:44) ‘And your male and female slaves whom you have from the nations that are around you, from them you buy male and female slaves, (Lev 25:45) and also from the sons of the strangers sojourning among you, from them you buy, and from their clans who are with you, which they shall bring forth in your land, and they shall be your property. (Lev 25:46) ‘And you shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them as a possession, they are your slaves for all time. But over your brothers, the children of Yisra’ĕl, you do not rule with harshness, one over another. (Lev 25:47) ‘Now when a sojourner or a settler with you becomes rich, and your brother with him becomes poor, and sells himself to the settler or sojourner with you, or to a member of the sojourner’s clan, (Lev 25:48) after he has been sold, there is a right of redemption to him – one of his brothers does redeem him, (Lev 25:49) or his uncle or his uncle’s son does redeem him, or anyone who is a close relative to him in his clan does redeem him, or if he is able, then he shall redeem himself. (Lev 25:50) ‘And he shall reckon with him who bought him: The price of his release shall be according to the number of years, from the year that he was sold to him until the Year of Jubilee; as the days of a hired servant it is with him. (Lev 25:51) ‘If there are yet many years, according to them he repays the price of his redemption, from the silver of his purchase. (Lev 25:52) ‘And if few years are left until the Year of Jubilee, then he shall reckon with him, and according to his years he repays him the price of his redemption. (Lev 25:53) ‘He is with him as a yearly hired servant, and he does not rule with harshness over him before your eyes. (Lev 25:54) ‘And if he is not redeemed in these years, then he shall be released in the Year of Jubilee, he and his children with him. (Lev 25:55) ‘Because the children of Yisra’ĕl are servants to me, they are my servants whom I brought out of the land of Mitsrayim. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 26:1) ‘Do not make idols for yourselves, and do not set up a carved image or a pillar for yourselves, and do not place a stone image in your land, to bow down to it. For I am יהוה your Elohim.



Haftorah (Prophets)



(Lev 26:2) ‘Guard My Sabbaths and reverence my set-apart place. I am יהוה. (Isa 66:1) Thus said יהוה, “The heavens are my throne, and the earth is my footstool. Where is this house that you build for me? And where is this place of my rest? (Isa 66:2) “And all these my hand have made, and all these that exist,” declares יהוה. “Yet to such a one I look: on him who is poor and bruised of spirit, and who trembles at my Word. (Isa 66:3) “But whoever slaughters the bull slays a man; whoever slaughters the lamb breaks a dog’s neck; whoever brings a grain offering – pig’s blood; whoever burns incense blesses an idol. Indeed, they have chosen their own ways, and their being delights in their abominations. (Isa 66:4) “I shall also choose their punishments, and bring their fears on them. I called, but no one answered. I spoke and they did not hear, and they did evil before my eyes, and chose what was displeasing to me.” (Isa 66:5) Hear the Word of יהוה, you who tremble at His Word, “Your brothers who hate you, who cast you out for My Name’s sake, said, ‘Let יהוה be esteemed, so that we see your joy.’ But they are put to shame.” (Isa 66:6) “A roaring sound from the city, a voice from the Hĕḵal, the voice of יהוה, repaying His enemies! (Isa 66:7) “Before she labored, she gave birth; before a pain came to her, she was delivered of a male child. (Isa 66:8) “Who has heard the like of this? Who has seen the like of these? Is a land brought forth in one day? Is a nation born at once? For as soon as Tsiyon labored, she gave birth to her children. (Isa 66:9) “Shall I bring to birth, and not give delivery?” says יהוה. “Shall I who give delivery restrain birth?” said your Elohim. (Isa 66:10) “Rejoice with Yerushalayim, and be glad with her, all you who love her; rejoice greatly with her, all you who mourn for her; (Isa 66:11) so that you feed, and shall be satisfied with the breast of her comforts, so that you drink deeply, and shall delight yourselves in her overflowing esteem.” (Isa 66:12) For thus said יהוה, “See, I am extending peace to her like a river, and the esteem of the gentiles like a flowing stream. And you shall feed; you shall be carried on the side, and be fondled on her knees. (Isa 66:13) “As one whom his mother comforts, so I comfort you. And in Yerushalayim you are comforted.” (Isa 66:14) “And you shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones flourish as tender grass. And the hand of יהוה shall be known to His servants, and His displeasure to His enemies. (Isa 66:15) “For look, יהוה comes with fire and with His chariots, like a whirlwind, to render His displeasure with burning, and His rebuke with flames of fire. (Isa 66:16) “For by fire and by His sword יהוה shall judge all flesh, and the slain of יהוה shall be many – (Isa 66:17) those who set themselves apart and cleanse themselves at the gardens after ‘One’ in the midst, eating flesh of pigs1 and the abomination and the mouse, are snatched away, together,” declares יהוה. Footnote: 1See 65:4. (Isa 66:18) “And I, because of their works and their imaginations, am coming to gather all nations and tongues. And they shall come and see my esteem. (Isa 66:19) “And I shall set a sign among them, and shall send some of those who escape to the nations – Tarshish and Pul and Luḏ, who draw the bow, and Tuḇal and Yawan, the coastlands afar off who have not heard my report nor seen my esteem. And they shall declare my esteem among the gentiles. (Isa 66:20) “And they shall bring all your brothers as an offering to יהוה out of all the gentiles, on horses and in chariots and in litters, on mules and on camels, to My set-apart mountain Yerushalayim,” declares יהוה, “as the children of Yisra’ĕl bring an offering in a clean vessel into the House of יהוה. (Isa 66:21) “And from them too I shall take for priests – for Lĕwites,” declares יהוה. (Isa 66:22) “For as the new heavens and the new earth that I make stand before me,” declares יהוה, “so your seed and your name shall stand. (Isa 66:23) “And it shall be that from New Moon to New Moon, and from Sabbath to Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before me,” declares יהוה. (Isa 66:24) “And they shall go forth and look upon the corpses of the men who have transgressed against Me1. For their worm shall not die, and their fire not be quenched. And they shall be repulsive to all flesh!” Footnote: 1See 24:6, 34:2-3, Ps. 110:6, Jer. 25:33.







(Eze 44:15) “But the priests, the Lĕwites, the sons of Tsaḏoq, who guarded the duty of my set-apart place when the children of Yisra’ĕl went astray from me, they shall draw near to me to serve me, and shall stand before me to bring to me the fat and the blood,” declares the Master יהוה. (Eze 44:16) “They shall enter my set-apart place, and they shall draw near to my table to serve me, and they shall guard my charge. (Eze 44:17) “And it shall be, when they enter the gates of the inner courtyard that they put on linen garments and no wool shall come upon them while they attend within the gates of the inner courtyard or within the house. (Eze 44:18) “They shall have linen turbans on their heads and linen trousers on their bodies, they shall not gird themselves with sweat. (Eze 44:19) “And when they go out to the outer courtyard, to the outer courtyard to the people, they shall take off their garments in which they have attended, and shall leave them in the set-apart rooms, and shall put on other garments. And they shall set apart the people in their set-apart garments. (Eze 44:20) “And their heads they shall not shave, nor shall they let their hair grow long – they shall keep their hair well trimmed.



(Eze 44:21) “And no priest is to drink wine when he comes into the inner court. (Eze 44:22) “And they do not take as wife a widow or a divorced woman, but take maidens of the seed of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or widows of priests. (Eze 44:23) “And they are to teach my people the difference between the set-apart and the profane, and make them know what is unclean and clean. (Eze 44:24) “And they are to stand as judges in a dispute, and judge it according to my right-rulings. And they are to guard my Torot and my laws in all my appointed festivals, and set apart y Sabbaths. (Eze 44:25) “And they are not to defile themselves by coming near a dead man. Only for a father or mother, for a son or daughter, for a brother or unmarried sister they defile themselves. (Eze 44:26) “And after his cleansing, they count seven days for him, (Eze 44:27) and on the day that he comes into the inner court of the set-apart place to attend in the set-apart place, he brings his sin offering,” declares the Master יהוה. (Eze 44:28) “And it shall be to them for an inheritance, I am their inheritance. And you give them no possession in Yisra’ĕl – I am their possession. (Eze 44:29) “The grain offering, and the sin offering, and the guilt offering they are to eat, and all that is dedicated in Yisra’ĕl is theirs. (Eze 44:30) “And the first of all the first-fruits of all, and every contribution of all, of all your contributions, belong to the priests. And the first of your ground meal you give to the priest, so that a blessing rests on your house. (Eze 44:31) “The priests are not to eat any bird or beast found dead or torn to pieces.





(Jer 32:6) And Yirmeyahu said, “The word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Jer 32:7) ‘See, Ḥaname’ĕl son of Shallum your uncle is coming to you, saying, “Buy my field which is in Anathoth, for the right of redemption is yours to buy it.” ’ (Jer 32:8) “So Ḥaname’ĕl my uncle’s son came to me in the court of the guard according to the word of יהוה, and said to me, ‘Please buy my field that is in Anathoth, which is in the land of Binyamin, for the right of inheritance is yours, and the redemption. Buy it for yourself.’ And I knew that this was the word of יהוה. (Jer 32:9) “And I bought the field which was at Anathoth from Ḥaname’ĕl, my uncle’s son, and weighed out to him the silver, seventeen sheqels of silver. (Jer 32:10) “And I signed the deed and sealed it, took witnesses, and weighed the silver in the scales. (Jer 32:11) “Then I took the deed of purchase – that which was sealed according to the command and law, and that which was open – (Jer 32:12) and I gave the deed of purchase to Baruḵ son of Nĕriyah, son of Maḥsĕyah, in the presence of Ḥaname’ĕl my uncle’s son, and in the presence of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase, before all the Yehuḏim who sat in the court of the guard. (Jer 32:13) “And I commanded Baruḵ before their eyes, saying, (Jer 32:14) ‘Thus said יהוה of hosts, the Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, “Take these deeds, both this deed of purchase which is sealed and this deed which is open, and put them in an earthen vessel, so that they remain many days.” (Jer 32:15) ‘For thus said יהוה of hosts, the Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, “Houses and fields and vineyards shall again be bought in this land.” ’ (Jer 32:16) “And after I had given the deed of purchase to Baruḵ son of Nĕriyah, I prayed to יהוה, saying, (Jer 32:17) ‘Ah, Master יהוה! See, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. There is no matter too hard for you, (Jer 32:18) who show kindness to thousands, and repay the crookedness of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them – the Great, the Mighty Ěl, יהוה of hosts is His Name, (Jer 32:19) great in counsel and mighty in work, for Your eyes are open to all the ways of the sons of men, to give everyone according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds. (Jer 32:20) ‘You have set signs and wonders in the land of Mitsrayim, to this day, and in Yisra’ĕl and among other men. And you have made yourself a Name, as it is this day. (Jer 32:21) ‘And you have brought your people Yisra’ĕl out of the land of Mitsrayim with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and an outstretched arm, and with great fearsome deeds. (Jer 32:22) ‘And you gave them this land, of which you swore to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey. (Jer 32:23) ‘And they came in and possessed it, but they did not obey your voice nor did they walk in your Torah. They did not do all that you commanded them to do, so You brought all this evil upon them. (Jer 32:24) ‘See the siege mounds! They have come to the city to take it. And the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans who fight against it, because of the sword and the scarcity of food and the pestilence. And what you have spoken has come about, and look, you see it! (Jer 32:25) ‘Yet you, O Master יהוה, have said to me, “Buy the field for silver, and take witnesses”!, although the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.’ ” (Jer 32:26) Then the word of יהוה came to Yirmeyahu, saying, (Jer 32:27) “See, I am יהוה, the Elohim of all flesh. Is there any matter too hard for me?”



Brit Chadasha (New Covenant)



(1Pe 1:13) Therefore, having girded up the loins of your mind, being sober, set your expectation perfectly upon the favor that is to be brought to you at the revelation of יהושע Messiah, (1Pe 1:14) as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts in your ignorance, (1Pe 1:15) instead, as the One who called you is set-apart, so you also should become set-apart in all behavior, (1Pe 1:16) because it has been written, “Be set-apart, for I am set-apart.”



(1Pe 2:4) Drawing near to Him, a living Stone – rejected indeed by men, but chosen by Elohim and precious – (1Pe 2:5) you also, as living stones, are being built up, a spiritual house, a set-apart priesthood, to offer up spiritual slaughter offerings acceptable to Elohim through יהושע Messiah. (1Pe 2:6) Because it is contained in the Scripture, “See, I lay in Tsiyon a chief corner-stone, chosen, precious, and he who believes on Him shall by no means be put to shame.”1 Footnote: 1Isa. 28:16. (1Pe 2:7) This preciousness, then, is for you who believe; but to those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief corner-stone,”1 Footnote: 1Ps. 118:22. (1Pe 2:8) and “A stone of stumbling and a rock that makes for falling,”1 who stumble because they are disobedient2 to the Word, to which they also were appointed. Footnotes: 1Isa. 8:14. 2See John 3:36, Heb. 3:18. (1Pe 2:9) But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a set-apart nation, a people for a possession, that you should proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light, (1Pe 2:10) who once were not a people, but now the people of Elohim; who had not obtained compassion, but now obtained compassion.





Hear these words of Yahshua to us who live in the Last Days Assembly!



(Rev 3:6) “He, who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’ (Rev 3:7) “And to the messenger of the assembly in Philadelphia write, ‘He who is set-apart, He who is true, He who has the key of Dawiḏ, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens, says this: (Rev 3:8) “I know your works – see, I have set before you an open door, and no one is able to shut it – that you have little power, yet have guarded my Word, and have not denied my Name. (Rev 3:9) “See, I am giving up those of the congregation of Satan, who say they are Yehuḏim and are not, but lie. See, I am making them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you. (Rev 3:10) “Because you have guarded my Word of endurance, I also shall guard you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the entire world, to try those who dwell on the earth. (Rev 3:11) “See, I am coming speedily! Hold what you have that no one take your crown. (Rev 3:12) “He who overcomes, I shall make him a supporting post in the Dwelling Place of my Elohim, and he shall by no means go out. And I shall write on him the Name of my Elohim and the name of the city of my Elohim, the renewed Yerushalayim, which comes down out of the heaven from my Elohim, and my renewed Name. (Rev 3:13) “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’ (Rev 3:14) “And to the messenger of the assembly in Laodicea write, ‘The Amĕn, the Trustworthy and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of Elohim,1 says this: Footnote: 1Col. 1:15, Heb. 1:6.

(Rev 3:16) “So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am going to vomit you out of my mouth. (Rev 3:17) “Because you say, ‘Rich I am, and I am made rich, and need none at all,’ and do not know that you are wretched, and pitiable, and poor, and blind, and naked.



(Rev 3:18) “I advise you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire,1 so that you become rich; and white garments, so that you become dressed, so that the shame of your nakedness might not be shown; and anoint your eyes with ointment, so that you see.

Shabbat Shalom Loved One!

Last week we discussed how discharges and sores from our bodies are to be addressed: (Lev 14:54) “This is the Torah for any infection of leprosy, and eruption, (Lev 14:55) for leprosy of a garment, and of a house, (Lev 14:56) and for a swelling, and for a scab, and for a bright spot, (Lev 14:57) to teach when it is unclean and when it is clean. This is the Torah of leprosy.” (Lev 15:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon, saying, (Lev 15:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When any man has a discharge from his flesh, his discharge is unclean. (Lev 15:3) ‘And this is his uncleanness in regard to his discharge; whether his flesh runs with his discharge, or his flesh is stopped up by his discharge, it is his uncleanness. (Lev 15:4) ‘Any bed becomes unclean on which he who has the discharge lies, and any object on which he sits becomes unclean. (Lev 15:5) ‘And anyone who touches his bed has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:6) ‘And he who sits on any object on which he who has the discharge sat, has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.

Even sexual behavior is addressed: Lev 15:16) ‘And when a man has an emission of semen, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:17) ‘And any garment and any leather on which there is semen, shall also be washed with water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:18) ‘And when a woman lies with a man, and there is an emission of semen, they both shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:19) ‘And when a woman has a discharge, and the discharge from her flesh is blood, she has to be in her separation for seven days. And whoever touches her is unclean until evening. (Lev 15:20) ‘And whatever she lies on during her separation is unclean. And whatever she sits on is unclean. (Lev 15:21) ‘And anyone who touches her bed has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:22) ‘And whoever touches any object that she sat on has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:23) ‘And if it is on the bed or on any object on which she sits, when he touches it, he is unclean until evening. (Lev 15:24) ‘And if any man lies with her at all, and her monthly flow is on him, he shall be unclean seven days. And any bed he lies on is unclean. (Lev 15:25) ‘And when a woman has a discharge of blood for many days, other than at the time of her monthly separation, or when she discharges beyond her usual time of monthly separation, all the days of her unclean discharge shall be as the days of her monthly separation. She is unclean. (Lev 15:26) ‘Any bed on which she lies all the days of her discharge is to her as the bed of her monthly separation. And whatever she sits on is unclean, as the uncleanness of her monthly separation. (Lev 15:27) ‘And anyone who touches them is unclean, and shall wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.



Sometimes Loved One, the road must be repeated. That is why it is a Torah Cycle. (Comment: the cycle is likened to the ancient path we are to return to; a path is often considered “a beaten path” due to returning to it often) We must learn to seek YHWH for His love and compassion to download to us; for others in our lives. Sometimes we only understand after returning many times. We can read the Scriptures over and over and then out of nowhere it seems, YHWH reveals new Truth to us! I can remember telling Yahshua once that the job description of the angelic beings (Seraphim) flying around the Throne Room in Heaven and saying holy, holy is YHWH might get boring after a few thousand years. (Isa 6:1) In the year that Sovereign Uzziyah died, I saw יהוה sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the Hĕḵal. (Temple) (Isa 6:2) Above it stood seraphim. Each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. (Isa 6:3) And one cried to another and said, “Set-apart, set-apart, set-apart is יהוה of hosts; all the earth is filled with His esteem!” (Comment: Many versions declare holy, holy is YHWH) (Isa 6:4) And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke. (Isa 6:5) And I said, “Woe to me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips – for my eyes have seen the sovereign, יהוה of hosts.” Then our loving King dropped in my spirit that He reveals more of His glory to them. (Comment: glory according to Moses’ report was a revealing of more of His goodness and mercy) This creates an instant surge of joy and enthusiasm in these angelic beings! In like manner He reveals to us as more of Himself as we seek Him with all our hearts. Why is this so important? Obviously in fiery trials and testing’s we sometimes feel abandoned and at our end. Some even become hope-less. We must join ourselves to Him by getting in His presence and being restored- regularly! (Rom 5:1) Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with YHWH through our Master Yahshua Messiah, (Rom 5:2) through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of YHWH. (Rom 5:3) And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; (Rom 5:4) and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; (Rom 5:5) and hope does not disappoint, because the love of YHWH has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. (Rom 5:6) While we were still helpless, (Hopeless also?) at the right time Messiah died for the ungodly. (Rom 5:7) For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. (Rom 5:8) But YHWH demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet transgressors of Torah (sinners), Messiah died for us. (Rom 5:9) Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of YHWH through Him.



Truth Seekers, we have studied and reviewed much about the coming darkness and fiery trials we can expect in the days ahead. Please do remember the Scriptures declare this Exodus will be a far greater deliverance than even Moses and Israel crossing the Red Sea. Thank you for your prayers and intercession as I met part of our family of loved ones in the Deep South and they are delightful people indeed! Don’t be disheartened- you were created by our Heavenly Father to live in these times and seasons! Be encouraged- He is well able to deliver you and your loved ones- worship Him who made Heaven and Earth! (Practically, yes, it may be a good idea to store some dry beans, whole grains, water, water purifiers, seeds, even potassium iodide in the event of nuclear terrorism, etc.) A more remote place to retreat to with like minded believers is ideal.

Once again we need to remind ourselves why you and I and they are Family and as such you (we) are “Loved Ones”! I consider all “Truth Seekers” family and therefore loved ones. Once again, here’s why; (Matthew 12:46) While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood without, desiring to speak with him.(Matthew 12:47) Then one said unto him, Behold, your mother and your brothers stand without, desiring to speak with you. (Matthew 12:48) But he answered and said unto him that told him, who is my mother? And who are my brothers?



(Matthew 12:49) And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, behold my mother and my brothers! (Matthew 12:50) For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother. Understand if we are willing to humble ourselves and submit to the will of YHWH and do the Father’s will (His TORAH! /Instructions) we are Yahshua’s (Jesus) family!



We should also realize a truth: Jeremiah prophesied that in the DAY OF AFFLICTION (Comment: Hebrew idiom for Jacob’s Trouble or also known as the Great Tribulation in the last days) we would recognize (YHWH reveals truth) and become aware of the fact that we have added to and subtracted from His FEASTS and commands! These are lies that really don’t please Him because they have pagan roots and are manmade (added and subtracted from the WORD) traditions that make the word of YHWH of none effect! (Jer 16:19) O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.(Deu 4:2) “Do not add to the Word which I command you, and do not take away from it1, so as to guard the commands of יהוה your Elohim which I am commanding you. Footnote: 1See also 12:32, Prov. 30:6, Rev. 22:18-19.



Can we even imagine thinking we were serving YHWH our whole lives’ and hear Him tell us we inherited lies and were workers of lawlessness- that He never knew us and to depart from us; that we actually were disobedient following pagan traditions we inherited? This experience would and will cause many to go screaming in horror, weeping and gnashing of teeth, into the flames of hell! Oh Yah- Change us NOW! Reveal your TRUTH to us that we may be pleasing in your sight! Nothing is too hard for you YHWH! You are family if you are humble enough to be a truth searcher. One who desires truth and obedience to your Creator- more than you want acceptance from men and their traditions.



This group would include us who are willing to pick up our burial stake and follow Him. Why do I use burial stake? Because you and I must be willing to decrease as He increases in us. He changes not and that only leaves you and I to do the changing, Yahshua put it like this: (Matthew 16:24) Then said Yahshua to his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. (Matthew 16:25) For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. (Matthew 16:26) For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?



We must be willing to humble ourselves and accept the engrafted word when we discover truth. This losing our life for Him is not just physical. As we are changed into His image we are losing our old person (ality) and gaining HIM! To the degree we are hungry for Him we will be changed- no more or less. (Matthew 5:6) Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.



How do we hunger and thirst for righteousness?



(James 4:7) So then subject (submit/humble) yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil1 and he shall flee from you. Footnote: 1Or adversary. (James 4:8) Draw near to Elohim and He shall draw near to you. Cleanse hands, sinners. And cleanse the hearts, you double-minded! (James 4:9) Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection. (James 4:10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Master, and He shall lift you up. You and I must change and receive the engrafted word of LIFE, (HUMBLE OURSELVES) turn in repentance and OBEY HIM. We can no longer say we love Him and not do what He says! (Luke 6:46) And why do you call me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?



Do we call Him Lord and Master but not obey Him? Are we of those that think His LAW (Commentary: Law was translated that but it is Torah-Instructions in Hebrew) is done away with and ALL fulfilled? Hopefully, we will rethink that position! The Spring Feasts alone are fulfilled. Passover, Feast of Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, and Shavuot were fulfilled down to the day and hour! He was the Passover Lamb, 3 days later the High Priest was still in seclusion as was prescribed of the High Priest prior to offering the thanksgiving for the first fruits of the Earth, when He said “Don’t touch me Mary, I have not yet ascended to My Father.” He is and was the High Priest! Seven sevens (weeks) later He sent the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) on Shavuot, the anniversary of giving the Torah (Law) at Mt. Sinai. He came the first time to be Messiah Ben Joseph, the suffering servant to be the Lamb of YHWH (God) sacrifice.



He is coming a second time very soon as Messiah Ben David, the Reigning King! He will rule His Kingdom from Jerusalem! Is He now ruling? NO. It is not all fulfilled! Let’s look at what Yahshua said about the Law being done away with and WHEN this will occur! (Mat 5:17) Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (Mat 5:18) For verily I say unto you, until heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, until all be fulfilled. (Mat 5:19) Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. (The above verse is where Yahshua defines PASTOR LEAST who says the law is done away with!)



Even to us casual observers, heaven and earth have not passed! Let’s acknowledge that fact as a truth and return to Him as we study this week’s portion and allow Him to restore ALL things- especially us!



(Jer 30:3) 'For behold, days are coming,' declares YHWH, 'when I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel and Judah.' (Comment: this means you and I who are grafted into Israel by grace by faith in Yahshua and are heirs now of Abraham according to the promise) YHWH says, 'I will also bring them back to the land that I gave to their forefathers and they shall possess it.'" (Jer 30:16) 'Therefore all who devour you will be devoured; and all your adversaries, every one of them, will go into captivity; and those who plunder you will be for plunder, And all who prey upon you I will give for prey. (Jer 30:17) 'For I will restore you to health and I will heal you of your wounds,' declares YHWH, 'because they have called you an outcast, saying: "It is Zion; no one cares for her."' (Jer 30:18) "Thus says YHWH, 'Behold, I will restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the city will be rebuilt on its ruin, and the palace will stand on its rightful place. (Jer 30:19) 'From them will proceed thanksgiving and the voice of those who celebrate; and I will multiply them and they will not be diminished; I will also honor them and they will not be insignificant. (Jer 30:20) 'Their children also will be as formerly, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all their oppressors. (Jer 30:21) 'Their leader shall be one of them, and their ruler shall come forth from their midst; and I will bring him near and he shall approach me; for who would dare to risk his life to approach me?' declares YHWH. (Jer 30:22) 'You shall be my people, and I will be your Elohim.'"



Whatever we are found trusting- better have the solid foundation under it which is Moses (Torah) and the prophets. Bo, a close friend, recently reminded me of the verse below. (Pro 28:8) He who increases his possessions by interest and profit gathers it for him who shows favor to the poor. (Pro 28:9) He who turns away his ear from hearing the Torah, even his prayer is an abomination1. Footnote: 1See also 15:29, Isa. 59:1-2, John 9:31, 1 John 3:22. (Pro 28:10) He who causes the straight to go astray in an evil way, falls into his own pit; but the perfect inherit the good. (Pro 28:11) A rich man is wise in his own eyes, but the poor who has understanding searches him out.



With the foundation in mind, let’s turn our hearts and minds to this week’s Torah portion.



Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Achareimot “After the Death”

Leviticus 16:1-18:30; Amos 9:7-15 Ezekiel 22:1-31; Hebrews 9:11-28





There is an order (Protocol) of obedience required in approaching YHWH!



(Lev 16:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh after the death of the two sons of Aharon, as they drew near before יהוה, and died. (Lev 16:2) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Speak to Aharon your brother not to come in at all times to the Set-apart Place inside the veil, before the lid of atonement which is on the ark, lest he die, because I appear in the cloud above the lid of atonement. (Lev 16:3) “With this Aharon should come into the Set-apart Place: with the blood of a young bull as a sin offering, and of a ram as a burnt offering. (Lev 16:4) “He should put on the set-apart linen long shirt, with linen trousers on his flesh, and gird himself with a linen girdle, and be dressed with the linen turban – they are set-apart garments. And he shall bathe his body in water, and shall put them on. (Lev 16:5) “And from the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl he takes two male goats as a sin offering, and one ram as a burnt offering. (Lev 16:6) “And Aharon shall bring the bull as a sin offering, which is for him, and make atonement for himself and for his house. (Lev 16:7) “And he shall take the two goats and let them stand before יהוה at the door of the Tent of Meeting. (Lev 16:8) “And Aharon shall cast lots for the two goats, one lot for יהוה and the other lot for Azazel. (Lev 16:9) “And Aharon shall bring the goat on which the lot for יהוה fell, and shall prepare it as a sin offering. (Lev 16:10) “But the goat on which the lot for Azazel fell is caused to stand alive before יהוה, to make atonement upon it, to send it into the wilderness to Azazel. (Lev 16:11) “And Aharon shall bring the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall slaughter the bull as the sin offering which is for himself, (Lev 16:12) and shall take a fire holder filled with burning coals of fire from the altar before יהוה, with his hands filled with sweet incense beaten fine, and shall bring it inside the veil. (Lev 16:13) “And he shall put the incense on the fire before יהוה, and the cloud of incense shall cover the lid of atonement which is on the Witness, lest he die. (Lev 16:14) “And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it with his finger on the lid of atonement on the east side; also in front of the lid of atonement he sprinkles some of the blood with his finger seven times. (Lev 16:15) “And he shall slaughter the goat of the sin offering, which is for the people, and shall bring its blood inside the veil, and shall do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the lid of atonement and in front of the lid of atonement.



Scapegoat



(Lev 16:16) “And he shall make atonement for the Set-apart Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and because of their transgressions in all their sins. And so he does for the Tent of Meeting which is dwelling with them in the midst of their uncleanness. (Lev 16:17) “And no man should be in the Tent of Meeting when he goes in to make atonement in the Set-apart Place, until he comes out. And he shall make atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the assembly of Yisra’ĕl. (Lev 16:18) “And he shall go out to the altar that is before יהוה, and make atonement for it. And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and some of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar all around. (Lev 16:19) “And he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and set it apart from the uncleanness of the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Lev 16:20) “And when he has finished atoning for the Set-apart Place, and the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat. (Lev 16:21) “Then Aharon shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and shall confess over it all the crookednesses of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and all their transgressions in all their sins, and shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a fit man. (Lev 16:22) “And the goat shall bear on itself all their crookednesses, to a land cut off. Thus he shall send the goat away into the wilderness. (Lev 16:23) “Aharon shall then come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments which he put on when he went into the Set-apart Place, and shall leave them there. (Lev 16:24) “And he shall bathe his body in water in the set-apart place, and shall put on his garments, and shall come out and prepare his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people, (Lev 16:25) and burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar.





Day of Atonement (Yom Kippor- Judgment Day) Afflict means- FAST and pray!



(Lev 16:26) “And he who sent away the goat to Azazel washes his garments, and shall bathe his body in water, and afterward he comes into the camp. (Lev 16:27) “And the bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Set-apart Place, is brought outside the camp. And they shall burn their skins, and their flesh, and their dung with fire. (Lev 16:28) “And he who burns them washes his garments, and shall bathe his body in water, and afterward he comes into the camp. (Lev 16:29) “And this shall be for you a law forever: In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you afflict your beings, and do no work, the native or the stranger who sojourns among you. (Lev 16:30) “For on that day he makes atonement for you, to cleanse you, to be clean from all your sins before יהוה. (Lev 16:31) “It is a Sabbath of rest for you, and you shall afflict your beings – a law forever. (Lev 16:32) “And the priest, who is anointed and ordained to serve as priest in his father’s place, shall make atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, the set-apart garments, (Lev 16:33) and he shall make atonement for the Most Set-apart Place, and make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar, and make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly. (Lev 16:34) “And this shall be for you a law forever, to make atonement for the children of Yisra’ĕl, for all their sins, once a year.” And he did as יהוה commanded Mosheh.







(Lev 17:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 17:2) “Speak to Aharon, to his sons, and to all the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘This is the word which יהוה has commanded, saying, (Lev 17:3) “Any man from the house of Yisra’ĕl who slaughters a bull or a lamb or a goat in the camp, or who slaughters it outside the camp, (Lev 17:4) and does not bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to bring an offering to יהוה before the Dwelling Place of יהוה, blood-guilt is reckoned to that man. He has shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people, (Lev 17:5) in order that the children of Yisra’ĕl bring their slaughterings which they slaughter in the open field. And they shall bring them to יהוה at the door of the Tent of meeting, to the priest, and slaughter them as peace offerings to יהוה. (Lev 17:6) “And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of יהוה at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall burn the fat for a sweet fragrance to יהוה. (Lev 17:7) “And let them no longer slaughter their slaughterings to demons, after whom they whored. This is a law forever for them throughout their generations.” ’ (Lev 17:8) “And say to them, ‘Any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn among you, who offers a burnt offering or slaughtering, (Lev 17:9) and does not bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to do it to יהוה, that man shall be cut off from among his people. (Lev 17:10) ‘And any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn among you, who eats any blood, I shall set My face against that being who eats blood, and shall cut him off from among his people. (Lev 17:11) ‘The life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your lives; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the life.’ (Lev 17:12) “Therefore I said to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘No being among you eats blood, nor does any stranger who sojourns among you eat blood.’ (Lev 17:13) “And any man from the children of Yisra’ĕl, or from the strangers who sojourn among you, who hunts and catches any beast or bird, which is eaten, shall pour out its blood and cover it with dust, (Lev 17:14) for it is the life of all flesh. Its blood is for its life. And I said to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘Do not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood. Anyone eating it is cut off.’ (Lev 17:15) “And any being who eats a carcass or what was torn by a beast, be he a native or a stranger, he shall wash his garments and bathe in water, and shall be unclean until evening. Then he shall be clean. (Lev 17:16) “And if he does not wash or bathe his body, then he shall bear his crookedness.”



Don’t! Learn the ways of the heathens and call it worship to YHWH!



(Lev 18:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 18:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 18:3) ‘Do not do as they do in the land of Mitsrayim, where you dwelt. And do not do as they do in the land of Kenaʽan, where I am bringing you, and do not walk in their laws. (Lev 18:4) ‘Do My right-rulings and guard my laws, to walk in them. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Lev 18:5) ‘And you shall guard my laws and my right-rulings, which a man does and lives by them. I am יהוה.





Keep away from incest, nakedness, and such- YHWH will judge the disobedient! No sacrificing of babies for convenience either (Abortion- Molek)



(Lev 18:6) ‘No one is to approach anyone of his own flesh to uncover his nakedness. I am יהוה. (Lev 18:7) ‘The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you do not uncover. She is your mother; you do not uncover her nakedness. (Lev 18:8) ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife you do not uncover, it is your father’s nakedness. (Lev 18:9) ‘The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere, their nakedness you do not uncover. (Lev 18:10) ‘The nakedness of your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, their nakedness you do not uncover, for theirs is your own nakedness. (Lev 18:11) ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, brought forth by your father, she is your sister, and you do not uncover her nakedness. (Lev 18:12) ‘The nakedness of your father’s sister you do not uncover, she is your father’s flesh. (Lev 18:13) ‘The nakedness of your mother’s sister you do not uncover, for she is your mother’s flesh. (Lev 18:14) ‘The nakedness of your father’s brother you do not uncover, you do not approach his wife, she is your aunt. (Lev 18:15) ‘The nakedness of your daughter-in-law you do not uncover, she is your son’s wife, you do not uncover her nakedness. (Lev 18:16) ‘The nakedness of your brother’s wife you do not uncover, it is your brother’s nakedness. (Lev 18:17) ‘The nakedness of a woman and her daughter you do not uncover, nor do you take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are her relatives – it is wickedness. (Lev 18:18) ‘And do not take a woman as a rival to her sister, to uncover her nakedness while the other is alive. (Lev 18:19) ‘And do not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness in her monthly separation of uncleanness. (Lev 18:20) ‘And do not have intercourse with the wife of your neighbor, to defile yourself with her. (Lev 18:21) ‘And do not give any of your offspring to pass through to Moleḵ. And do not profane the Name of your Elohim. I am יהוה.



Homosexuality will be judged as perversion by YHWH’s own words!



(Lev 18:22) ‘And do not lie with a male as with a woman, it is an abomination. (Lev 18:23) ‘And do not have intercourse with any beast, to defile yourself with it. And a woman does not stand before a beast to mate with it, it is a perversion. (Lev 18:24) ‘Do not defile yourselves with all these, for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am driving out before you. (Lev 18:25) ‘Thus the land became defiled, therefore I punished it for its crookedness, and the land vomited out its inhabitants. (Lev 18:26) ‘But you, you shall guard My laws and My right-rulings, and not do any of these abominations, the native nor stranger who sojourns among you, (Lev 18:27) because the men of the land who were before you have done all these abominations, and thus the land became defiled, (Lev 18:28) ‘So let not the land vomit you out for defiling it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you. (Lev 18:29) ‘For whoever does any of these abominations, those beings who do them shall be cut off from among their people. (Lev 18:30) ‘And you shall guard My Charge, so as not to do any of these abominable practices which were done before you, so as not to defile yourselves by them. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ”



(Amos 9:7) “Are you not like the people of Kush to Me, O children of Yisra’ĕl?” declares יהוה. “Did I not bring up Yisra’ĕl from the land of Mitsrayim, and the Philistines from Kaphtor, and Aram from Qir? (Amos 9:8) “Look, the eyes of the Master יהוה are on the sinful reign1, and I shall destroy it from the face of the earth, except that, I do not completely destroy the house of Yaʽaqoḇ,” declares יהוה. Footnote: 1Isa. 34:2, Jer. 30:11, Jer. 46:28, Dan. 2:44, Zeph. 3:8, Hag. 2:22, Lk. 4:5-6. (Amos 9:9) “For look, I am commanding, and I shall sift the house of Yisra’ĕl among all the gentiles, as one sifts1 with a sieve, yet not a grain falls to the ground. Footnote: 1Or Shake - shakes. (Amos 9:10) “All the sinners of my people are going to die by the sword, those who are saying, ‘Evil does not overtake us nor meet us.’ (Amos 9:11) “In that day I shall raise up the booth of Dawiḏ which has fallen down. And I shall repair its breaches and rise up its ruins. And I shall build it as in the days of old, (Amos 9:12) so that they possess the remnant of Eḏom1, and all the gentiles on whom My Name is called2,” declares יהוה who does this. Footnotes: 1The vowels which the Masoretes added later on, makes this read Eḏom, but it was probably a mistake. It should be Aḏam, meaning mankind. 2Acts 15:16-17. (Amos 9:13) “Look, the days are coming,” declares יהוה, “that the ploughman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed. And the mountains shall drip new wine, and all the hills melt. (Amos 9:14) “And I shall turn back the captivity of my people Yisra’ĕl. And they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them. And they shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them, and shall make gardens and eat their fruit. (Amos 9:15) “And I shall plant them on their own soil, and not uproot them any more from their own soil I have given them,” said יהוה your Elohim!



City of blood- Country of blood (USA and others) these disobeyed the Torah and do as they please- (Since the “LAW” is done away with- NOT!)

(Eze 22:1) And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Eze 22:2) “And now, son of man, judge, judge the city of blood! And you shall show her all her abominations! (Eze 22:3) “And you shall say, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “The city sheds blood in her midst, that her time might come. And she has made idols within herself to become defiled. (Eze 22:4) “You have become guilty by the blood which you have shed, and have defiled yourself with the idols which you have made. Thus you have brought your days near, and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I shall make you a reproach to the gentiles, and a mockery to all lands. (Eze 22:5) “Those near and those far from you mock you – defiled is your name and great the confusion! (Eze 22:6) “See the leaders of Yisra’ĕl: each one has used his arm to shed blood in you. (Eze 22:7) “They have despised father and mother within you. They have oppressed the stranger in your midst. They have wronged the fatherless and the widow within you. (Eze 22:8) “You have despised that which is set-apart to me, and you have profaned my Sabbaths. (Eze 22:9) “Slanderous men have been in you to shed blood. And in you are those who eat on the mountains. They have done wickedness in your midst. (Eze 22:10) “In you they have uncovered the nakedness of a father. In you they have humbled women who are defiled during their uncleanness. (Eze 22:11) “And the one has done abomination with his neighbor’s wife. And another has wickedly defiled his daughter-in-law. And another within you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter. (Eze 22:12) “In you they have taken a bribe to shed blood. You have taken interest and increase. You have cut off your neighbor by extortion. And you have forgotten me,” declares the Master יהוה. (Eze 22:13) “And see, I shall smite my hand because of your greedy gain which you have made, and at the bloodshed which has been in your midst. (Eze 22:14) “Would your heart stand, your hands remain strong, in the days when I deal with you? I, יהוה, have spoken, and shall do it. (Eze 22:15) “And I shall scatter you among the gentiles, and shall disperse you throughout the lands, and shall consume your filthiness out of you. (Eze 22:16) “And you shall profane yourself before the eyes of the gentiles. And you shall know that I am יהוה.” ’ ” (Eze 22:17) And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Eze 22:18) “Son of man, the house of Yisra’ĕl has become dross to me. All of them are bronze, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of a furnace – they have become the dross of silver. (Eze 22:19) “Therefore thus said the Master יהוה, ‘Because all of you have become dross, therefore see, I am gathering you into the midst of Yerushalayim. (Eze 22:20) ‘As they gather silver, and bronze, and iron, and lead, and tin into the midst of a furnace, to blow fire on it, to melt it, so I gather you in my displeasure and in my wrath. And I shall blow and melt you. (Eze 22:21) ‘And I shall gather you and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in its midst. (Eze 22:22) ‘As silver is melted in the midst of a furnace, so are you melted in its midst. And you shall know that I, יהוה, have poured out my wrath on you.’ ” (Eze 22:23)



Pastors (priests/prophets) have done violence to His Torah- Law Instructions!



And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Eze 22:24) “Son of man, say to her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed or rained upon in the day of displeasure.’ (Eze 22:25) “There is a conspiracy of her prophets in her midst, like a roaring lion tearing the prey. They have devoured life, they have taken wealth and precious matters, they have made many widows in her midst. (Eze 22:26) “Her priests have done violence to my teaching1 and they profane my set-apart matters. They have not distinguished between the set-apart and profane, nor have they made known the difference between the unclean and the clean. And they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned in their midst. Footnote: 1Zeph. 3:4, Lk. 16:16. (Eze 22:27) “Her leaders in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, to shed blood, to destroy lives, and to get greedy gain. (Eze 22:28) “And her prophets have coated them with whitewash, seeing a false vision, and divining a lie for them, saying, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה,’ when יהוה had not spoken. (Eze 22:29) “The people of the land have practiced oppression, and committed robbery, and have wronged the poor and needy. And they oppressed the stranger without right-ruling. (Eze 22:30) “And I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the breach before me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it – but I did not find one! (Eze 22:31) “Therefore I have poured out my displeasure on them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. And I have put their way on their own head,” declares the Master יהוה.



Blood of Yahshua! Man dies once and then is judged, so we wait patiently for His second appearing!



(Heb 9:11) But Messiah, having become a High Priest of the coming good matters, through the greater and more perfect Tent not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, (Heb 9:12) entered into the Most Set-apart Place once for all, not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood, having obtained everlasting redemption. (Heb 9:13) For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the defiled, sets apart for the cleansing of the flesh, (Heb 9:14) how much more shall the blood of the Messiah, who through the everlasting Spirit offered Himself unblemished to Elohim, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living Elohim? (Heb 9:15) And because of this He is the Mediator of a renewed covenant, so that, death having taken place for redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance. (Heb 9:16) For where a covenant is, it is necessary for the death of the covenanted one to be established. (Heb 9:17) For a covenant over those dead is firm, since it is never valid while the covenanted one is living. (Heb 9:18) Therefore not even the first covenant was instituted without blood. (Heb 9:19) For when, according to Torah, every command had been spoken by Mosheh to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, (Heb 9:20) saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which Elohim commanded you.” (Heb 9:21) And in the same way he sprinkled with blood both the Tent and all the vessels of the service. (Heb 9:22) And, according to the Torah, almost all is cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. (Heb 9:23) It was necessary, then, that the copies of the heavenly ones should be cleansed with these, but the heavenly ones themselves with better slaughter offerings than these. (Heb 9:24) For Messiah has not entered into a Set-apart Place made by hand – figures of the true – but into the heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of Elohim on our behalf, (Heb 9:25) not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters into the Set-apart Place year by year with blood not his own. (Heb 9:26) If so, He would have had to suffer often, since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the offering of Him. (Heb 9:27) And as it awaits men to die once, and after this the judgment, (Heb 9:28) so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, shall appear a second time, apart from sin, to those waiting for Him, unto deliverance.





Loved one – thanks so much for your prayers and heartfelt intercession! Praise YHWH that He hears heart rendered prayers! I give thanks for you, Loved One, you are His body who loves Him and shows this love by obeying Him (Eph 1:15) For this reason I too, having heard of your belief in the Master יהושע and your love for all the set-apart ones, Eph 1:16) do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers, (Eph 1:17) that the Elohim of our Master יהושע Messiah, the Father of esteem, would give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, (Eph 1:18) the eyes of your understanding1 being enlightened, so that you know what is the expectation of His calling, and what are the riches of the esteem of His inheritance in the set-apart ones, Footnote: 1Lk. 24:45. (Eph 1:19) and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who are believing, according to the working of His mighty strength, (Eph 1:20) which He wrought in the Messiah when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenlies, (Eph 1:21) far above all rule and authority and power and mastery, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. (Eph 1:22) And He put all under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all, to the assembly, (Eph 1:23) which is His body, the completeness of Him who fills all in all.


Shalom to your home,

Loved One Please,

If you've ever heard and believed anything I've said- Please at least listen to this download. Shalom everyone. Please, please download this message and listen. A dear sister sent this and I downloaded and listened.

IF you believe the BIBLE at all you must hear this message. Scientists are discussing an approaching Neutron star (emits no light) and now it's close enough to be detected and followed by many. Our solar system is being greatly affected. (Mars now has magnetic poles whereas this was not true until recently) According to this interview it is interacting with the Sun and destroying our war/defense satellites and things are soon to get really serious. Could it be a hoax or misinformation? One can only hope so. Can we prepare? You bet we can. Shalom and let's make ourselves ready...

Whole lotta Shakin' going on!

Friday, April 16, 2010 TM

Shabbat Shalom Loved One!

There is and will be even a greater shaking coming on the USA and the entire planet. Many of you loved ones are already experiencing the economic fall out, from South Africa to Texas. We will rely more and more on Him and His plan as we seek Him diligently in prayer and fasting. (Heb 12:22) But you have drawn near to Mount Tsiyon and to the city of the living Elohim, to the heavenly Yerushalayim, to myriads of messengers, (Heb 12:23) to the entire gathering and assembly of the first-born having been enrolled in heaven, and to Elohim the Judge of all, and to the spirits of righteous men made perfect, (Heb 12:24) and to יהושע the Mediator1 of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling which speaks better than the blood of Heḇel. Footnote: 1See 8:6. (Heb 12:25) Take heed not to refuse the One speaking. For if those did not escape who refused the warning on earth, much less we who turn away from Him from heaven, (Heb 12:26) whose voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.” (Heb 12:27) And this, “Yet once more,” makes clear the removal of what is shaken – as having been made – so that the unshaken matters might remain. (Heb 12:28) Therefore, receiving an unshakeable reign, let us hold the favor, through which we serve Elohim pleasingly with reverence and awe, (Heb 12:29) for indeed, our Elohim is a consuming fire.



Apparently, whatever we are found trusting better have the solid foundation under it which is Moses (Torah) and the prophets. A close friend recently reminded of the verse below. (Pro 28:8) He who increases his possessions by interest and profit gathers it for him who shows favor to the poor. (Pro 28:9) He who turns away his ear from hearing the Torah, even his prayer is an abomination1. Footnote: 1See also 15:29, Isa. 59:1-2, John 9:31, 1 John 3:22. (Pro 28:10) He who causes the straight to go astray in an evil way, falls into his own pit; but the perfect inherit the good. (Pro 28:11) A rich man is wise in his own eyes, but the poor who has understanding searches him out.



Last week we discussed leprosy and we now turn our hearts and minds to this week’s Torah portion and about YHWH’s plan for CLEANSING THE LEPER. Remember He promises IF we repent and obey Him He will put (allow) none of the diseases of the Egyptians on us! (Exo 15:26) And He said, “If you diligently obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim and do what is right in His eyes, and shall listen to His commands and shall guard all His laws, I shall bring on you none of the diseases I brought on the Mitsrites, for I am יהוה who heals you.”



This week’s Torah Scriptures: Metzorah- Cleansing the Leper

(I have taken the liberty to slightly increase Mal and Romans reading to help clarify)

Leviticus 14:1-15:33; Malachi 3:1-4-6; Romans 6:9-23;

2 Samuel Chapters 4, 5, and 6

(Lev 14:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Lev 14:2) “This shall be the Torah of the leper for the day of his cleansing: He shall be brought to the priest, (Lev 14:3) and the priest shall go out of the camp, and the priest shall look and see, if the leprosy is healed in the leper, (Lev 14:4) then the priest shall command, and he shall take for him who is to be cleansed two live and clean birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop. (Lev 14:5) “And the priest shall command, and he shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water. (Lev 14:6) “Let him take the live bird and the cedar wood and the scarlet and the hyssop, and dip them and the live bird in the blood of the bird that was killed over the running water. (Lev 14:7) “And he shall sprinkle it seven times on him who is to be cleansed from the leprosy, and shall pronounce him clean, and shall let the live bird loose in the open field. (Lev 14:8) “And he who is to be cleansed shall wash his garments, and shall shave off all his hair and wash himself in water, and shall be clean. Then after that he comes into the camp, but shall stay outside his tent seven days. (Lev 14:9) “And on the seventh day it shall be that he shaves all the hair off his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair he shaves off. And he shall wash his garments and wash his body in water, and shall be clean. (Lev 14:10) “And on the eighth day he takes two male lambs, perfect ones, and one ewe lamb a year old, a perfect one, and three-tenths of an ĕphah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, and one log of oil. (Lev 14:11) “And the priest who is cleansing shall present the man who is to be cleansed, with these offerings, before יהוה, at the door of the Tent of Meeting. (Lev 14:12) “And the priest shall take one male lamb and bring it as a guilt offering, and the log of oil, and wave them as a wave offering before יהוה. (Lev 14:13) “And he shall slaughter the lamb in the place where he slaughters the sin offering and the burnt offering, in a set-apart place. For the guilt offering, like the sin offering, belongs to the priest. It is most set-apart. (Lev 14:14) “And the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering, and the priest shall put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot. (Lev 14:15) “And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand. (Lev 14:16) “And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before יהוה. (Lev 14:17) “And of the rest of the oil in his hand, the priest puts some on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the blood of the guilt offering. (Lev 14:18) “And the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he puts on the head of him who is to be cleansed. And the priest shall make atonement for him before יהוה.



(Lev 14:19) “And the priest shall make the sin offering, and make atonement for him who is to be cleansed from his uncleanness. Then afterwards he slaughters the burnt offering. (Lev 14:20) “And the priest shall offer the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. And the priest shall make atonement for him, and he shall be clean. (Lev 14:21) “But if he is poor and is unable to afford it, then he shall take one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved, to make atonement for him, and one-tenth of an ĕphah of fine flour mixed with oil as a grain offering, and a log of oil, (Lev 14:22) and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, such as he is able to afford, and one shall be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering. (Lev 14:23) “And he shall bring them to the priest on the eighth day for his cleansing, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, before יהוה. (Lev 14:24) “And the priest shall take the lamb of the guilt offering and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them as a wave offering before יהוה. (Lev 14:25) “And he shall slaughter the lamb of the guilt offering, and the priest shall take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot. (Lev 14:26) “Then the priest pours some of the oil into the palm of his own left hand. (Lev 14:27) “And the priest shall sprinkle with his right finger some of the oil that is in his left hand seven times before יהוה. (Lev 14:28) “And the priest shall put some of the oil that is in his hand on the tip of the right ear of him who is to be cleansed, and on the thumb of the right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on the place of the blood of the guilt offering. (Lev 14:29) “And the rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he puts on the head of him who is to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before יהוה. (Lev 14:30) “And he shall prepare one of the turtledoves or young pigeons, such as he is able to afford, (Lev 14:31) that which he is able to afford, the one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, with the grain offering. And the priest shall make atonement for him who is to be cleansed before יהוה. (Lev 14:32) “This is the Torah for one who had an infection of leprosy, who is unable to afford for his cleansing.”



The Scriptures below reminded me of mold being found and making some real estate worthless at great financial loss here in USA! (If only we knew how important obedience really is)



(Lev 14:33) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon, saying, (Lev 14:34) “When you come into the land of Kenaʽan, which I am giving you as a possession, and I put a plague of leprosy in a house in the land of your possession, (Lev 14:35) then shall the one who owns the house come and inform the priest, saying, ‘It seems to me that there is some plague in the house.’ (Lev 14:36) “And the priest shall command, and they shall empty the house, before the priest goes in to look at to look at the house. (Lev 14:37) “And he shall look at the plague and see, if the plague is on the walls of the house with sunken places, greenish or reddish, which appear to be deep in the wall, (Lev 14:38) then the priest shall go out of the house, to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days. (Lev 14:39) “And the priest shall come again on the seventh day and look and see, if the plague has spread on the walls of the house, (Lev 14:40) then the priest shall command, and they shall remove the stones with the plague in them, and they shall throw them outside the city, into an unclean place, (Lev 14:41) while he lets the house be scraped inside, all around, and the dust that they scrape off they shall pour out in an unclean place outside the city. (Lev 14:42) “And they shall take other stones and put them in the place of those stones, and take other mortar and plaster the house. (Lev 14:43) “And if the plague comes back and breaks out in the house, after he has removed the stones, after he has scraped the house, and after it is plastered, (Lev 14:44) then the priest shall come and look and see, if the plague has spread in the house, it is an active leprosy in the house, it is unclean. (Lev 14:45) “And he shall break down the house, its stones, and its timber, and all the plaster of the house, and he shall bring them outside the city to an unclean place. (Lev 14:46) “And he who goes into the house, all the days while it is shut up, becomes unclean until evening. (Lev 14:47) “And he who lies down in the house has to wash his garments, and he who eats in the house has to wash his garments. (Lev 14:48) “However, if the priest indeed comes in and looks at it and sees that the plague has not spread in the house after the house was plastered, then the priest shall pronounce the house clean, because the plague is healed. (Lev 14:49) “And to cleanse the house, he shall take two birds, and cedar wood, and scarlet, and hyssop. (Lev 14:50) “And he shall kill one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water, (Lev 14:51) and he shall take the cedar wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet, and the live bird, and dip them in the blood of the slain bird and in the running water, and shall sprinkle the house seven times. (Lev 14:52) “He shall thus cleanse the house with the blood of the bird and the running water and the live bird, and with the cedar wood, and with the hyssop, and with the scarlet, (Lev 14:53) and he shall let the live bird loose outside the city in the open field, and shall make atonement for the house, and it shall be clean. (Lev 14:54) “This is the Torah for any infection of leprosy, and eruption, (Lev 14:55) and for leprosy of a garment, and of a house, (Lev 14:56) and for a swelling, and for a scab, and for a bright spot, (Lev 14:57) to teach when it is unclean and when it is clean. This is the Torah of leprosy.”



Sores and discharges (Torah)



(Lev 15:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon, saying, (Lev 15:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When any man has a discharge from his flesh, his discharge is unclean. (Lev 15:3) ‘And this is his uncleanness in regard to his discharge; whether his flesh runs with his discharge, or his flesh is stopped up by his discharge, it is his uncleanness. (Lev 15:4) ‘Any bed becomes unclean on which he who has the discharge lies, and any object on which he sits becomes unclean. (Lev 15:5) ‘And anyone who touches his bed has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:6) ‘And he who sits on any object on which he who has the discharge sat, has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:7) ‘And he who touches the flesh of him who has the discharge has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and shall be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:8) ‘And when he who has the discharge spits on him who is clean, then he shall wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:9) ‘Any saddle on which he who has the discharge rides becomes unclean. (Lev 15:10) ‘And whoever touches any of that which was under him is unclean until evening. And he who is carrying them up has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:11) ‘And anyone whom he who has the discharge touches without rinsing his hands in water, shall wash his garments and bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:12) ‘And the earthen vessel which he who has the discharge touches has to be broken, and every wooden vessel has to be rinsed in water. (Lev 15:13) ‘And when he who has a discharge is cleansed of his discharge, then he shall count for himself seven days for his cleansing, and shall wash his garments, and shall bathe his flesh in running water, and be clean. (Lev 15:14) ‘And on the eighth day he takes for himself two turtledoves or two young pigeons, and shall come before יהוה, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall give them to the priest. (Lev 15:15) ‘And the priest shall prepare them, the one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. And the priest shall make atonement for him before יהוה because of his discharge.



Sexual Instructions (Torah)



(Lev 15:16) ‘And when a man has an emission of semen, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:17) ‘And any garment and any leather on which there is semen, shall also be washed with water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:18) ‘And when a woman lies with a man, and there is an emission of semen, they both shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:19) ‘And when a woman has a discharge, and the discharge from her flesh is blood, she has to be in her separation for seven days. And whoever touches her is unclean until evening. (Lev 15:20) ‘And whatever she lies on during her separation is unclean. And whatever she sits on is unclean. (Lev 15:21) ‘And anyone who touches her bed has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:22) ‘And whoever touches any object that she sat on has to wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:23) ‘And if it is on the bed or on any object on which she sits, when he touches it, he is unclean until evening. (Lev 15:24) ‘And if any man lies with her at all, and her monthly flow is on him, he shall be unclean seven days. And any bed he lies on is unclean. (Lev 15:25) ‘And when a woman has a discharge of blood for many days, other than at the time of her monthly separation, or when she discharges beyond her usual time of monthly separation, all the days of her unclean discharge shall be as the days of her monthly separation. She is unclean. (Lev 15:26) ‘Any bed on which she lies all the days of her discharge is to her as the bed of her monthly separation. And whatever she sits on is unclean, as the uncleanness of her monthly separation. (Lev 15:27) ‘And anyone who touches them is unclean, and shall wash his garments, and shall bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. (Lev 15:28) ‘But if she is cleansed of her discharge, then she shall count for herself seven days, and after that she is clean. (Lev 15:29) ‘And on the eighth day she takes for herself two turtledoves or two young pigeons, and shall bring them to the priest, to the door of the Tent of Meeting. (Lev 15:30) ‘And the priest shall prepare the one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, and the priest shall make atonement for her before יהוה for the discharge of her uncleanness. (Lev 15:31) ‘Thus you shall separate the children of Yisra’ĕl from their uncleanness, lest they die in their uncleanness when they defile My Dwelling Place which is in their midst. (Lev 15:32) ‘This is the Torah for one who has a discharge, and for him who emits semen and is unclean thereby, (Lev 15:33) and for her who is sick in her monthly separation, and for one who has a discharge, either man or woman, and for him who lies with an unclean woman.’ ”



Hey- this is good news- MESSIAH YAHSHUA IS COMING! We might want to refrain from horror-scopes and Harry Potter and magic shows! It will be good that we repent from lying and any adulterous eyes and actions we may have done! (Pro 6:32) He who commits adultery with a woman lacks heart; he who does it destroys his own life. (Pro 6:33) He finds smiting and shame and his reproach is not wiped away. Another few verses that come to mind: (2Pe 2:4) If Elohim did not spare the messengers who sinned, but sent them to Tartaros, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be kept for judgment, (2Pe 2:5) and did not spare the world of old, but preserved Noaḥ, a proclaimer of righteousness, and seven others, bringing in the flood on the world of the wicked, (2Pe 2:6) and having reduced to ashes the cities of Seḏom and Amorah condemned them to destruction – having made them an example to those who afterward would live wickedly, (2Pe 2:7) and rescued righteous Lot, who was oppressed with the indecent behavior of the lawless1 Footnote: 1The Greek word here, and in 3:17, is athesmos (not the usual one, anomos) but it also means “lawless.” (2Pe 2:8) (for day after day that righteous man, dwelling among them, tortured his righteous being by seeing and hearing their lawless works), (2Pe 2:9) then יהוה knows how to rescue the reverent ones from trial and to keep the unrighteous unto the day of judgment, to be punished, (2Pe 2:10) and most of all those walking after the flesh in filthy lust and despising authority – bold, headstrong, speaking evil of esteemed ones, (2Pe 2:11) whereas messengers who are greater in strength and power do not bring a slanderous accusation against them before the Master. (2Pe 2:12) But these, like natural unreasoning beasts, having been born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheme that which they do not know, shall be destroyed in their destruction, (2Pe 2:13) being about to receive the wages of unrighteousness, deeming indulgence in the day of pleasure, spots and blemishes, reveling in their own deceptions while they feast with you, (2Pe 2:14) having eyes filled with adultery, and unable to cease from sin, enticing unstable beings, having a heart trained in greed, children of a curse, (2Pe 2:15) having left the right way they went astray, having followed the way of Bilʽam the son of Beʽor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness, (2Pe 2:16) but he was rebuked for his transgression: a dumb donkey speaking with the voice of a man restrained the madness of the prophet.



King of all Kings will soon reign from Jerusalem!



(Mal 3:1) “See, I am sending my messenger1, and he shall prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Master you are seeking comes to His Hĕḵal, even the Messenger2 of the covenant, in whom you delight. See, He is coming,” said יהוה of hosts. Footnotes: 1Generally interpreted as Yoḥanan the Immerser. 2The Messiah, obviously. (Mal 3:2) “And who is able to bear the day of His coming, and who is able to stand when He appears? He is like the fire of a refiner, and like the soap of a launderer. (Mal 3:3) “And He shall sit as a refiner and a cleanser of silver. And He shall cleanse the sons of Lĕwi, and refine them as gold and silver, and they shall belong to יהוה, bringing near an offering in righteousness. (Mal 3:4) “Then shall the offering of Yehuḏah and Yerushalayim be pleasant to יהוה, as in the days of old, as in former years. (Mal 3:5) “And I shall draw near to you for right-ruling. And I shall be a swift witness against the practicers of witchcraft, and against adulterers, and against them that swear to falsehood, and against those who oppress the wage earner in his wages and widows and the fatherless, and those who turn away a sojourner and do not fear me,” said יהוה of hosts. (Mal 3:6) “For I am יהוה, I shall not change1, and you, O sons of Yaʽaqoḇ, shall not come to an end. Footnote: 1Jas. 1:17. (Mal 3:7) “From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from My laws and did not guard them. Turn back to me, and I shall turn back to you,” said יהוה of hosts. “But you said, ‘In what shall we turn back?’ (Mal 3:8) “Would a man rob Elohim? Yet you are robbing me! But you said, ‘In what have we robbed you?’ In the tithe and the offering! (Mal 3:9) “You have cursed me with a curse, for you are robbing me, this nation, all of it!



Remember the tithe is where YHWH says it is- the widows and orphans and the Levites! (Those priests of His who will tell, teach, and do the truth and don’t live for pride and lusts for things!)



(Mal 3:10) “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, and let there be food in my house. And please prove me in this,” said יהוה of hosts, “whether I do not open for you the windows of the heavens, and shall pour out for you boundless blessing! (Mal 3:11) “And I shall rebuke the devourer for you, so that it does not destroy the fruit of your ground, nor does the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,” said יהוה of hosts. (Mal 3:12) “And all nations shall call you blessed, for you shall be a land of delight,” said יהוה of hosts. (Mal 3:13) “Your words have been harsh against me,” said יהוה, “but you have said, ‘What have we spoken against you?’ (Mal 3:14) “You have said, ‘It is worthless to serve Elohim. And what did we gain when we guarded His Charge, and when we walked as mourners before יהוה of hosts? (Mal 3:15) ‘And now we are calling the proud blessed – not only are the doers of wrongness built up, but they also try Elohim and escape.’ ” (Mal 3:16) Then shall those who fear יהוה speak to one another, and יהוה listen and hear, and a book of remembrance be written before Him, of those who fear יהוה, and those who think upon His Name. (Mal 3:17) “And they shall be Mine,” said יהוה of hosts, “on the day that I prepare a treasured possession. And I shall spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him. (Mal 3:18) “Then you shall again see the difference between the righteous and the wrong, between one who serves Elohim and one who does not serve Him. (Mal 4:1) “For look, the day shall come, burning like a furnace, and all the proud, and every wrongdoer shall be stubble. And the day that shall come shall burn them up,” said יהוה of hosts, “which leaves to them neither root nor branch. (Mal 4:2) “But to you who fear My Name the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings. And you shall go out and leap for joy like calves from the stall. (Mal 4:3) “And you shall trample the wrongdoers, for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day that I do this,” said יהוה of hosts. (Mal 4:4) “Remember the Torah of Mosheh, My servant, which I commanded him in Ḥorĕḇ for all Yisra’ĕl – laws and right-rulings. (Mal 4:5) “See, I am sending you Ěliyah1 the prophet before the coming of the great and awesome day of יהוה. Footnote: 1Lk. 1:17. (Mal 4:6) “And he shall turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with utter destruction1.” Footnote: 1Zech. 14:11.



Remember that SIN is defined as transgression against the Torah (law-Instructions of YHWH) (1Jn 3:4) everyone doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. (Torahlessness)



(Rom 6:8) And if we died with Messiah, we believe that we shall also live with Him, (Rom 6:9) knowing that Messiah, having been raised from the dead, dies no more – death no longer rules over Him. (Rom 6:10) For in that He died, He died to sin once for all; but in that He lives, He lives to Elohim. (Rom 6:11) So you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to Elohim in Messiah יהושע our Master. (Rom 6:12) Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires, (Rom 6:13) neither present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to Elohim as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to Elohim. (Rom 6:14) For sin shall not rule over you, for you are not under the law but under favor. (Rom 6:15) What then? Shall we sin because we are not under Torah but under favor? Let it not be! (Rom 6:16) Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves servants for obedience, you are servants of the one whom you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness? (Rom 6:17) But thanks to Elohim that you were servants of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of teaching to which you were entrusted. (Rom 6:18) And having been set free from sin, you became servants of righteousness.

(Rom 6:19) I speak as a man, because of the weakness of your flesh. For even as you did present your members as servants of uncleanness, and of lawlessness resulting in lawlessness, so now present your members as servants of righteousness resulting in set-apartness. (Rom 6:20) For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness. (Rom 6:21) What fruit, therefore, were you having then, over which you are now ashamed? For the end thereof is death. (Rom 6:22) But now, having been set free from sin, and having become servants of Elohim, you have your fruit resulting in set-apartness, and the end, everlasting life. (Rom 6:23) The wages of sin is death, but the favorable gift of Elohim is everlasting life in Messiah יהושע our Master. (2Sa 4:1) And the son of Sha’ul heard that Aḇnĕr had died in Ḥeḇron, and he lost heart, and all Yisra’ĕl was troubled. (2Sa 4:2) And the son of Sha’ul had two men, commanders of bands, and the name of one was Baʽanah and the name of the other Rĕḵaḇ, sons of Rimmon the Be’ĕrothite, of the children of Binyamin. For Be’ĕroth was also reckoned to Binyamin, (2Sa 4:3) because the Be’ĕrothites fled to Gittayim and have been sojourners there until this day. (2Sa 4:4) Now Yehonathan, son of Sha’ul, had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the news about Sha’ul and Yehonathan came from Yizreʽĕl, and his nurse took him up and fled. And it came to be, as she hurried to flee, that he fell and became lame. And his name was Mephiḇosheth. (2Sa 4:5) So the sons of Rimmon the Be’ĕrothite, Rĕḵaḇ and Baʽanah, went and came at about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, who was lying on his bed at noon. (2Sa 4:6) And they came into the midst of the house, to fetch wheat, and they struck him in the stomach, and Rĕḵaḇ and Baʽanah his brother escaped. (2Sa 4:7) Thus they came into the house when he was lying on his bed in his bedroom, and they smote him, and slew him, and beheaded him. And they took his head, and went the way of the desert plain all night, (2Sa 4:8) and brought the head of Ishbosheth to Dawiḏ at Ḥeḇron, and said to the sovereign, “See, the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Sha’ul your enemy, who sought your life. So יהוה has given my master the sovereign vengeance on Sha’ul and his seed this day.” (2Sa 4:9) And Dawiḏ answered Rĕḵaḇ and Baʽanah his brother, sons of Rimmon the Be’ĕrothite, and said to them, “As יהוה lives, who has redeemed my life out of all distress, (2Sa 4:10) when someone reported to me, saying, ‘See, Sha’ul is dead,’ and he was a bearer of good news in his own eyes, I then took hold of him and slew him in Tsiqlaḡ, which was the reward I gave him for his news. (2Sa 4:11) “How much more, when wrong men have slain a righteous man in his own house on his bed, should I not now require his blood at your hand and remove you from the earth?” (2Sa 4:12) And Dawiḏ commanded his young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and feet, and hanged them by the pool in Ḥeḇron. And they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in the tomb of Aḇnĕr in Ḥeḇron.



City of David Established- David dances before YHWH!



(2Sa 5:1) And all the tribes of Yisra’ĕl came to Dawiḏ at Ḥeḇron and spoke, saying, “Look, we are your bone and your flesh. (2Sa 5:2) “Formerly, when Sha’ul was sovereign over us, you were the one who led Yisra’ĕl out and brought them in. And יהוה said to you, ‘Shepherd My people Yisra’ĕl, and be ruler over Yisra’ĕl.’ ” (2Sa 5:3) And all the elders of Yisra’ĕl came to the sovereign at Ḥeḇron, and Sovereign Dawiḏ made a covenant with them at Ḥeḇron before יהוה. And they anointed Dawiḏ sovereign over Yisra’ĕl. (2Sa 5:4) Dawiḏ was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years. (2Sa 5:5) In Ḥeḇron he reigned over Yehuḏah seven years and six months, and in Yerushalayim he reigned thirty-three years over all Yisra’ĕl and Yehuḏah. (2Sa 5:6) And the sovereign and his men went to Yerushalayim against the Yeḇusites, the inhabitants of the land. And they spoke to Dawiḏ, saying, “Except you take away the blind and the lame, you are not going to come in here,” thinking, “Dawiḏ is not going to come in here.” (2Sa 5:7) But Dawiḏ captured the stronghold of Tsiyon, the City of Dawiḏ. (2Sa 5:8) And Dawiḏ said on that day, “Anyone who smites the Yeḇusites, let him go by the water-shaft and take the lame and the blind, which are hated by Dawiḏ’s being.” That is why they say, “The blind and the lame do not come into the house.” (2Sa 5:9) And Dawiḏ dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the City of Dawiḏ. And Dawiḏ built all around from the Millo and inward. (2Sa 5:10) And Dawiḏ went on and became great, and יהוה Elohim of hosts was with him. (2Sa 5:11) Now Ḥiram sovereign of Tsor sent messengers to Dawiḏ, and cedar trees, and carpenters and masons. And they built a house for Dawiḏ. (2Sa 5:12) And Dawiḏ knew that יהוה had established him as sovereign over Yisra’ĕl, and that He had exalted His reign, because of His people Yisra’ĕl. (2Sa 5:13) And Dawiḏ took more concubines and wives from Yerushalayim, after he had come from Ḥeḇron, and more sons and daughters were born to Dawiḏ. (2Sa 5:14) And these were the names of those born to him in Yerushalayim: Shammua, and Shoḇaḇ, and Nathan, and Shelomoh, (2Sa 5:15) and Yiḇḥar, and Elishua, and Nepheḡ, and Yaphiya, (2Sa 5:16) and Elishama, and Elyaḏa, and Eliphelet. (2Sa 5:17) And the Philistines heard that they had anointed Dawiḏ sovereign over Yisra’ĕl, and all the Philistines went up to search for Dawiḏ, but Dawiḏ heard and went down to the stronghold. (2Sa 5:18) And the Philistines came and spread themselves out in the Valley of Repha’im. (2Sa 5:19) And Dawiḏ inquired of יהוה, saying, “Do I go up against the Philistines? Do you give them into my hand?” And יהוה said to Dawiḏ, “Go up, for I shall certainly give the Philistines into your hand.” (2Sa 5:20) And Dawiḏ came to Baʽal Peratsim, and Dawiḏ smote them there. And he said, “יהוה has broken through my enemies before me, like a breakthrough of water.” So he called the name of that place Baʽal Peratsim. (2Sa 5:21) And they left their images there, and Dawiḏ and his men took them away. (2Sa 5:22) And the Philistines again came up and were spread out in the Valley of Repha’im. (2Sa 5:23) And when Dawiḏ inquired of יהוה, He said, “Do not go up, turn around behind them, and you shall come upon them in front of the mulberry trees. (2Sa 5:24) “And it shall be, when you hear the sound of stepping in the tops of the mulberry trees, and then act promptly, for then יהוה shall go out before you to smite the camp of the Philistines.” (2Sa 5:25) And Dawiḏ did so, as יהוה commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geḇa as far as Gezer. (2Sa 6:1) Now Dawiḏ again gathered all the chosen men of Yisra’ĕl, thirty thousand. (2Sa 6:2) And Dawiḏ rose up and went with all the people who were with him from Baʽalĕ Yehuḏah, to bring up from there the ark of Elohim, that is called by the Name, the Name יהוה of Hosts, who dwells between the keruḇim. (2Sa 6:3) And they placed the ark of Elohim on a new wagon, and brought it from the house of Aḇinaḏaḇ, which was on the hill. And Uzzah and Aḥyo, sons of Aḇinaḏaḇ, were leading the new wagon. (2Sa 6:4) And they brought it from the house of Aḇinaḏaḇ, which was on the hill, with the ark of Elohim. And Aḥyo was walking before the ark. (2Sa 6:5) And Dawiḏ and all the house of Yisra’ĕl were dancing before יהוה, with all instruments of fir wood, and with lyres, and with harps, and with tambourines, and with sistrums, and with cymbals. (2Sa 6:6) And when they came to the threshing-floor of Naḵon, Uzzah reached out toward the ark of Elohim and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled. (2Sa 6:7) And the wrath of יהוה burned against Uzzah, and Elohim smote him there for the fault. And he died there by the ark of Elohim. (2Sa 6:8) And Dawiḏ was displeased because יהוה had broken out against Uzzah. And he called the name of the place Perets Uzzah, until this day. (2Sa 6:9) And Dawiḏ was afraid of יהוה on that day, and said, “How shall the ark of יהוה come to me?” (2Sa 6:10) And Dawiḏ would not move the ark of יהוה with him into the City of Dawiḏ, but Dawiḏ turned it aside to the house of Oḇĕḏ-Eḏom the Gittite. (2Sa 6:11) And the ark of יהוה remained in the house of Oḇĕḏ-Eḏom the Gittite three months, and יהוה blessed Oḇĕḏ-Eḏom and his entire house. (2Sa 6:12) And it was reported to Sovereign Dawiḏ, saying, “יהוה has blessed the house of Oḇĕḏ-Eḏom and all that he has, because of the ark of Elohim.” Dawiḏ then went and brought up the ark of Elohim from the house of Oḇĕḏ-Eḏom to the City of Dawiḏ with rejoicing. (2Sa 6:13) And it came to be, when those bearing the ark of יהוה had gone six steps, that he slaughtered bulls and fatted sheep. (2Sa 6:14) And Dawiḏ danced before יהוה with all his might. And Dawiḏ was wearing a linen shoulder garment. (2Sa 6:15) Thus Dawiḏ and all the house of Yisra’ĕl brought up the ark of יהוה with shouting and with the sound of the ram’s horn. (2Sa 6:16) And it came to be, when the ark of יהוה came into the City of Dawiḏ, that Miḵal, daughter of Sha’ul, looked through a window and saw Sovereign Dawiḏ leaping and dancing before יהוה, and she despised him in her heart. (2Sa 6:17) So they brought the ark of יהוה in, and set it in its place in the midst of the Tent that Dawiḏ had pitched for it. And Dawiḏ brought burnt offerings before יהוה, and peace offerings. (2Sa 6:18) And when Dawiḏ had finished bringing burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the Name of יהוה of hosts. (2Sa 6:19) And he apportioned to all the people, to all the crowd of Yisra’ĕl, from man even to women, to each one a loaf of bread, and a measure, and a cake of raisins. And all the people left, each one to his house. (2Sa 6:20) And Dawiḏ returned to bless his household, and Miḵal the daughter of Sha’ul came out to meet Dawiḏ, and said, “How esteemed was the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl today, uncovering himself today in the eyes of the female servants of his servants, as one of the foolish ones shamelessly uncovers himself!” (2Sa 6:21) So Dawiḏ said to Miḵal, “Before יהוה, who chose me instead of your father and his entire house, to appoint me ruler over the people of יהוה, over Yisra’ĕl, so I danced before יהוה. (2Sa 6:22) “And I shall be even slighter than this, and shall be humble in my own eyes. But as for the female servants of whom you have spoken, by them I am esteemed.” (2Sa 6:23) And Miḵal the daughter of Sha’ul had no children to the day of her death.
