Why are we on a different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the Orthodox? For me it is about restoration of all things- explanation continued at end of this week’s study-
 
Remember with me Loved One; (1Jn 1:9) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
 
Leviticus 23:26 and יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, Leviticus 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.  (Leviticus 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. Leviticus 23:29For any being who is not afflicted on that same day, he shall be cut off from his people. Leviticus 23:30And any being who does any work on that same day, that being I shall destroy from the midst of his people. Leviticus 23:31 “You do no work – a law forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. Leviticus 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.Leviticus 23:33 and יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, Leviticus 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. Leviticus 23:35 ‘On the first day is a set-apart gathering, you do no servile work. Leviticus 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.  Leviticus 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 – Leviticus 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.
 
Loved One, please share our studies as YHWH is restoring all to Himself- 117 countries have now read our weekly Torah Studies at Shabbat Shalom Loved One! This is nothing we have done- Mighty is YHWH who loves us and restores all things! Thanks again Scott Trimble in TEXAS for always posting this weekly TORAH BIBLE STUDY (At website above- shabbatshalomlovedone) and Brian and Kendra Brown, also now back in TEXAS for starting this site many years ago! These are labors of love for YHWH’s Torah and His people! These are approaching the “Days of Awe” loved one, starting with the Feast of Trumpets which was by most reckonings Monday (9-7-2013) at sundown! The 10 (Or seven by some standards which would fit nicely with the 7 bowls of Yahweh’s wrath poured out after the Last Feast of TRUMPETS and we are GONE!) Days of Awe are days of repentance leading to repentance, fasting and The Day of Atonement (Commonly called Judgment Day by many Christians in regard to the final one) also known as Yom Kippur will be the 10th day or evening of the 16th of September counting from IF MY IF MY CALCULATIONS ARE CORRECT- and that is a BIG IF; I am sorry to admit, so please do your own sighting/counting. Trumpets will start Saturday evening (the 7th of September) at sundown and go until Sunday at sundown. That makes our fasting day- The Day of Atonement starting on Monday evening the 16th and all day Sunday  the 17th of September and this year’s Feast of Tabernacles starting on the evening of Saturday September 21st going 7 days (21st of September and ending the evening of the 27th). THE LAST GREAT DAY starts that same evening as we end FEAST OF TABERNACLES- so the SEASON OF REJOICING, the last of our Fall Feasts of YHWH ends the evening of the 28th of September. This is a picture of our future when we will look around and shout HalleluYAH’S proclaiming – “We made it into the Kingdom and have entered His joy!”  
 
Below is during the Millennium reign of Yahshua (Jesus) loved one, so I expect that is a good enough reason for Truth Searchers like us to start learning obedience in “Keeping the Feasts!” Remember the Hebrew idiom “The Day that no man knows the day or the hour!” (Feast of Trumpets) Remember; then that the 15th day (beginning the evening of the 14th day) is the Feast of Tabernacles- Season of our Joy which we will soon celebrate as written above!
 
(Zechariah 14:16)  And it shall be that all who are left from all the gentiles which came up against Yerushalayim, shall go up from year to year to bow themselves to the Sovereign, יהוה of hosts, and to observe the Festival of Booths (Tabernacles). (Zechariah 14:17)  And it shall be, that if anyone of the clans of the earth does not come up to Yerushalayim to bow himself to the Sovereign (King), יהוה of hosts, on them there is to be no rain.
 
How do we know when the Biblical year starts and when we are to keep His Biblically prescribed Feast dates loved one? YHWH put the planets and stars in their courses for seasons days and years. The moon circles the Earth every 29.54 days so Biblically, we can only have a 29 day month or a 30 day month- never a 28 or 31 day month like Pope Gregory determined. So YHWH is in control of what time it is in His universe! Here is how we determine the real start of the year! (Exodus 12:1)  And יהוה spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon in the land of Mitsrayim, saying, Exodus 12:2)This month is the beginning of months for you; it is the first month of the year for you. (Just before Passover)
 
Why is that of any importance to you and me living today? Because many of the body of believers have been blinded by the enemy of our souls and still follow vain traditions which are mostly manmade subtractions, additions and traditions of “Churchianity” handed down from the anything but a “Holy” Roman Empire ruler Constantine; who was a sun god worshipper and enforced these “manmade doctrines” with the penalty of death for rejection. Please understand we should know when the year starts so we can observe and do His commanded Holy Days (Holidays) and not do vain observations that He considers abominations. Many Christians honor all the TRADITIONAL holidays such as Christmas, Easter, Lent and never consider their pagan roots which were orchestrated by Rome. Some know that the day of the sun (Sun-day) was rooted from sun god worship and Easter was the pagan fertility goddess, where the Easter Priests (Not Christians or follower of Messiah) - would impregnate the virgins on the sunrise service and sacrifice the 3 month old babies from the prior years' sunrise service, dipping the eggs of Easter into the freshly sacrificed babies blood and declare- HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE! Have a prosperous and fertile year! This was their form of Happy New Year!  Lent was the 40 days of fasting and weeping for Tamuz followed by killing the pig that killed Tammuz on a hunting expedition and having that for Easter ham- goodness- Loved Ones-think maybe these traditions are possibly an abomination to our Creator? He taught us to NOT LEARN the ways of the heathen and say we are worshiping Him! (Jeremiah 10:2)  Thus said יהוה, Do not learn the way of the gentiles, 1 and do not be awed by the signs of the heavens, for the gentiles are awed by them. 2 Footnotes: 1 Leviticus. 18:3, Dt. 12:30 & 18:9, Ezekiel 11:12 & 20:32, Eph. 4:17, 1 Peter 4:3. 2 Dt. 4:19 & 17:3. He also COMMANDED US: (Deuteronomy 4:2) Do not add to the Word which I command you, and do not subtract from it 1, so as to guard the commands of יהוה your Elohim which I am commanding you. Footnote: 1 See also 12:32, Prov. 30:6, Rev. 22:18-19.
 
Do you and I suppose he has changed His mind about that; so we think it okay to ADD these manmade traditions as holy days and festivals (holidays)? And SUBTRACT His Feasts and festivals?
 
NO! His Torah (Instructions) and the writings of the prophets which include His Feasts/Appointments are the very shadow pictures of what is to come, i.e. the FIRST EXODUS was a shadow picture of our deliverance coming during the GREAT TRIBULATION- which will be far greater than the Red Sea crossing and the prior 10 judgments of the false gods. Now the seals, trumps, and bowls announce the judgments of the false gods and idols worshiped in our times! Let’s be sure we are not part of the company that will receive His judgments! If we are righteous by the blood of the Lamb (HalleluYAH) and are obedient only to YHWH (Not obedient to traditions of man) but truly showing our love to our Creator- He can and will deliver us – even in a fiery furnace like Shadrach, Meschak, and Abednego!
 
(Dan 3:12)  “There are certain Yehuḏim whom you have set over the work of the province of Baḇel: Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo. These men, O sovereign, pay no heed to you. They do not serve your Elohim, and they are not doing obeisance to the gold image which you have set up.” (Dan 3:13)  Then Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar, in rage and wrath, gave orders to bring Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo. Then they brought these men before the sovereign. (Dan 3:14)  Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar spoke and said to them, “Is it true, Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo, that you do not serve my Elohim, and you do not do obeisance to the gold image which I have set up? (Dan 3:15)  “Now if you are ready when you hear the sound of the horn, the flute, the zither, the lyre, the harp, the pipes, and all kinds of instruments, and you fall down and do obeisance to the image which I have made, good! But if you do not do obeisance, you are immediately thrown into the midst of a burning furnace of fire. And who is the Eloah who does deliver you from my hands?” (Dan 3:16)  Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo answered and said to the sovereign, “O Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. (Dan 3:17)  “If so, our Eloah whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning furnace of fire and from your hand, O sovereign – He does deliver!
 
(Dan 3:18)  “But if not, let it be known to you, O sovereign, that we do not serve your Elohim, nor do we do obeisance to the gold image which you have set up.” (Dan 3:19)  Then Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar was filled with wrath, and the expression on his face changed toward Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo. He responded and gave orders that they heat the furnace seven times more than it was usual to heat it. (Dan 3:20)  And he commanded some of the strongest men of his army to bind Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo, and throw them into the burning furnace of fire. (Dan 3:21)  So these men were bound in their coats, their trousers, and their turbans, and their other garments, and were thrown into the midst of the burning furnace of fire. (Dan 3:22)  Thereupon, because the sovereign’s order was urgent, and the furnace exceedingly hot, the flame of the fire killed those men who took up Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo.
 
(Dan 3:23)  And these three men, Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo, fell down bound into the midst of the burning furnace of fire. (Dan 3:24)  Then Sovereign Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar was amazed, and stood up in haste and spoke and said to his counselors, Did we not throw three men bound into the midst of the fire?” They answered and said to the sovereign, “Certainly, O sovereign.” (Dan 3:25)  He answered and said, “Look! I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire. And they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of Eloah.” (Dan 3:26)  Then Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar went near the mouth of the burning furnace of fire. He spoke and said, “Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo, servants of the Most High Eloah, come out, and come here.” Then Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo came from the midst of the fire. (Dan 3:27)  And the viceroys, the nobles, and the governors, and the sovereign’s counselors gathered together, seeing these men on whose bodies the fire had no power, and the hair of their head was not singed nor was their garments did not change, nor did the smell of fire come on them. (Dan 3:28)  Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar responded and said, Blessed be the Eloah of Shaḏraḵ, Mĕyshaḵ, and Aḇĕḏ-Neḡo, who sent His Messenger and delivered His servants who trusted in Him, and changed the sovereign’s order, and gave up their bodies, that they should neither serve nor do obeisance to any Eloah except their own Eloah!
 
One more time we must question ourselves; do "we" worship in VAIN? Maybe we should consider doing only what He says and not what tradition allows-THESE ARE THE DAYS OF REPENTANCE! What a great time to REPENT and start doing His INSTRUCTIONS and BEGIN “KEEPING” HIS APPOINTMENTS! (Feasts, Moedim, Appointments)
 
Really- Worship in VAIN? Goodness – maybe we should really reconsider Loved Ones- another Scripture comes to mind- “Come out of her my people or partake in her plagues!”  Loved Ones, should we worship Him the way He says or obey men and our traditions? Is obedience to the Word made flesh that dwelled among us really important?  Let’s repeat that; Worship in VAIN? Goodness – maybe we should really reconsider Loved Ones- another Scripture comes to mind- “Come out of her my people or partake in her plagues!”  Is our own judgment possibly only a heartbeat away? Do we really want to nullify all the promises received from obedience- given in the Word?
 
Matthew 15:3 He answering, said to them, “Why do you also transgress the command of Elohim1 because of your tradition? Footnote: 1 See Matthew. 5:20. Matthew 15:4 “For Elohim has commanded, saying, ‘Respect your father and your mother,’ and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’  Matthew 15:5  “But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me has been dedicated,”  Matthew 15:6  is certainly released from respecting his father or mother.’ So you have nullified the command of Elohim by your traditionMatthew 15:7 “Hypocrites! Yeshayahu rightly prophesied about you, saying, Matthew 15:8 ‘This people draw near to me with their mouth, and respect me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. Matthew 15:9But in vain do they worship me, teaching as my doctrines- the commands of men.’ ” 1 Footnote: 1 Isa. 29:13, Mk. 7:7, 2 Kings 17:19.
 
Obedience is LOVE: (John 14:10) “Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak from myself. But the Father who stays in me does His works. (John 14:11)  “Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in me, otherwise believe me because of the works themselves. (John 14:12)  “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me, the works that I do he shall do also. And greater works than these he shall do, because I go to My Father. (John 14:13)  “Whatever you ask in my name, that I shall do, in order that the Father might be esteemed in the Son. (John 14:14)  “If you ask whatever in my Name, I shall do it. (John 14:15)  “If you love me, you shall guard (keep) my commands.1 Footnote: 1 See Ex. 20:6, vv. 21&23, 1 John 5:2-3, 2 John v. 6. (John 14:16)  “And I shall ask the Father, and He shall give you another Helper, to stay with you forever – (John 14:17) the Spirit of the Truth, whom the world is unable to receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. But you know Him, for He stays with you and shall be in you. (John 14:18)  “I shall not leave you orphans – I am coming to you. (John 14:19)  “Yet a little while, and the world no longer sees me, but you shall see me, because I live, and you shall live. (John 14:20)  “In that day you shall know that I am in my Father and you in me, and I in you. (John 14:21)  “He who possesses my commands and guards (keeps) them; it is he who loves me. And he who loves me shall be loved by my Father, and I shall love him and manifest myself to him.”
 
Why is this even important to us today? Because if we cannot determine when the year starts we cannot observe His commands out of loving obedience!
 
Do we realize that IN THE BEGINNING Yahushua (Yeshua, Jesus) was the word and is the word even at Mt Sinai? Malachi 4 and Hebrews 13:8 testifies that He changes not and is the same yesterday, today and forever- what part of “forever” is so difficult for us to understand? The enemy has planted many tares and blinded many of us into thinking our religious traditions are acceptable to our King! However; He claims we are worshipping Him in VAIN! Please let us not use the excuse that those words have passed away because Yahshua addressed that thought beforehand and leaves us no excuse when we stand in His presence; (Matthew 5:17)  Think not that I am come to destroy the law, (Torah- Instructions) or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (Matthew 5:18)  For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. (Matthew 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. So; is it ALL fulfilled? What is fulfilled were the Spring Feasts of YHWH; He was and is the Passover Lamb, He is the High Priest who had to be in seclusion until the First Fruits Offering and could not be touched (“Don’t touch me Mary- I have not yet ascended to the Father”) then the graves opened and many were seen around Jerusalem risen from the dead as He was the first of many of the First Fruits Offering; then on Shavuot (we now call Pentecost) He poured out His Spirit that His commands would no longer be impossible (burdensome) to keep. These were and are the Spring Feasts he and we start our year with- they are the shadow picture of things to come. The Fall Feasts have not yet been fulfilled- we are finally; during our generation, approaching the Feast of Trumpets and at the LAST TRUMPET, the dead in Messiah rise first; then 9 days later (On the 10th from the New Moon) we have the DAY OF ATONEMENT or some of us call Judgment Day; then 4 days later (On the 15th from the new moon) we have The Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkoth when we tabernacle or dwell with Him forever (back on the earth); then on the eighth day of this Feast we have the LAST GREAT DAY or the WEDDING FEAST OF THE LAMB. Once again; these Fall Feasts are not yet fulfilled. So what does Yahshua say about this; are there still a heaven and an earth? If there is a heaven and earth still- we are commanded to obey His FEASTS, COMMANDS, TORAH, (INSTRUCTIONS): (Matthew 5:17) think not that I am come to destroy the law (Torah-Instructions), or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (Matthew 5:18)  For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. (Matthew 5:19)  Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Let’s not be “PASTOR OR TEACHER “LEAST”!) It is NEVER legalism to obey Him; that is called obedience and brings forth His promised blessings! Legalism is obeying what man has added and subtracted from His commandments (Most traditions); preferring to obey man legally rather than YHWH! NOT WISE!
 
Remember also LOVED ONES- WE FEAR NOT! We fast and repent getting rid of our unbelief and replacing it with TRUSTING HIM! (Psalms 20:5) We sing of your deliverance, and in the Name of our Elohim we set up a banner! יהוה (YHWH) does fill all your requests! (Psalms 20:6)  Now I know that יהוה (YHWH) shall save His Anointed; He answers him from His set-apart heavens with the saving might of His right hand. (Psalms 20:7)  Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we remember (trust in) the Name of יהוה (YHWH) our Elohim. (Psalms 20:8)  They, they have bowed down and fallen; But we have risen and are established. (Psalms 20:9)  Save us (YHWH) יהוה! Let the Sovereign answer us in the day we call.
 
 
Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Tazria “Leprosy- Conceived”
                     
Leviticus 12:1-13:59; 2 Kings 4:42-5:27; Matthew 8:1-4

Quarantine for a woman giving childbirth
 
(Leviticus 12:1)  And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 12:2)  “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘When a woman has conceived, and has given birth to a male child, then she shall be unclean seven days, as in the days of her monthly separation she is unclean. (Leviticus 12:3)  ‘And on the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin is circumcised. (Comment: only in recent years did modern medicine discover that vitamin K is released into the male’s blood on the 8th day from birth which coagulated the blood and allows for safe circumcision) (Leviticus 12:4)  ‘And she remains in the blood of her cleansing thirty-three days. She does not touch whatever is set-apart, and she does not come into the set-apart place until the days of her cleansing are completed. (Leviticus 12:5)  ‘But if she gives birth to a female child, then she shall be unclean for two weeks, as in her monthly separation, and she remains in the blood of her cleansing for sixty-six days. (Leviticus 12:6)  ‘And when the days of her cleansing are completed, for a son or for a daughter, she brings to the priest a lamb a year old, as a burnt offering, and a young pigeon or a turtledove as a sin offering, to the door of the Tent of Meeting. (Leviticus 12:7)  ‘And he shall bring it before יהוה, and make atonement for her, and she shall be cleansed from the flow of her blood. This is the Torah for her who has given birth to a male or a female. (Leviticus 12:8)  ‘And if she is not able to bring a lamb, then she shall bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons, one as a burnt offering and the other as a sin offering. And the priest shall make atonement for her, and she shall be clean.’ ” (Leviticus 13:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon, saying, (Leviticus 13:2) “When a man has on the skin of his body a swelling, a scab, or a bright spot, and it shall become on the skin of his body like a leprous infection, then he shall be brought to Aharon the priest or to one of his sons the priests. (Leviticus 13:3)  “And the priest shall look at the infection on the skin of the body. And if the hair on the infection has turned white, and the infection appears to be deeper than the skin of his body, it is a leprous infection. And the priest shall look at him, and pronounce him unclean. (Leviticus 13:4)  “But if the bright spot is white on the skin of his body, and does not appear to be deeper than the skin, and its hair has not turned white, then the priest shall shut up the infected one seven days. (Leviticus 13:5)  “And the priest shall look at him on the seventh day and see, if the infection appears to be as it was, and the infection has not spread on the skin, then the priest shall shut him up another seven days. (Leviticus 13:6)  “And the priest shall look at him again on the seventh day and see, if the infection has darkened, and the infection has not spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. It is a scab, and he shall wash his garments and be clean. (Leviticus 13:7)  “But if the scab spreads further over the skin, after he has been seen by the priest for his cleansing, he shall be seen by the priest again. (Leviticus 13:8)  “And the priest shall look and see, if the scab has spread on the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is leprosy. (Leviticus 13:9)  “When the infection of leprosy is on a man, then he shall be brought to the priest. (Leviticus 13:10)  “And the priest shall look and see, if the swelling on the skin is white, and it has turned the hair white, and there is a spot of raw flesh in the swelling, (Leviticus 13:11)  it is an old leprosy on the skin of his body, and the priest shall pronounce him unclean. He does not shut him up, for he is unclean. (Leviticus 13:12)  “And if leprosy breaks out all over the skin, and the leprosy shall cover all the skin of the infected one, from his head to his foot, wherever the priest looks, (Leviticus 13:13)  then the priest shall look and see, if the leprosy has covered all his body, he shall pronounce the infected one clean. It has all turned white, he is clean. (Leviticus 13:14)  “But the day raw flesh appears on him, he is unclean. (Leviticus 13:15)  “And the priest shall look at the raw flesh and pronounce him to be unclean – the raw flesh is unclean, it is leprosy. (Leviticus 13:16)  “Or when the raw flesh changes and turns white again, he shall come to the priest. (Leviticus 13:17)  “And the priest shall look at him and see, if the infection has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce the infected one clean, he is clean. (Leviticus 13:18)  “And when the body has a boil in the skin, and it is healed, (Leviticus 13:19) and in the place of the boil there comes a white swelling or a bright spot, reddish-white, then it shall be seen by the priest. (Leviticus 13:20)  “And the priest shall look and see, if it appears deeper than the skin, and its hair has turned white, the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a leprous infection which has broken out of the boil. (Leviticus 13:21)  “But if the priest looks at it and sees no white hairs in it, and it is not deeper than the skin, but has faded, then the priest shall shut him up seven days; (Leviticus 13:22)  and if it has spread further over the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a leprous infection. (Leviticus 13:23)  “But if the bright spot stays in its place, it has not spread, it is the scar of the boil, and the priest shall pronounce him clean.
 
Burns on our skin- quarantine
 
(Leviticus 13:24)  “Or when the body receives a burn on its skin by fire, and the raw flesh of the burn shall become a bright spot, reddish-white or white, (Leviticus 13:25) then the priest shall look at it and see, if the hair of the bright spot has turned white, and it appears deeper than the skin, it is leprosy broken out in the burn. And the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a leprous infection. (Leviticus 13:26)  “But if the priest looks at it and sees there are no white hairs in the bright spot, and it is not deeper than the skin, but has faded, then the priest shall shut him up seven days. (Leviticus 13:27)  “And the priest shall look at him on the seventh day. If it spreads further over the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is a leprous infection. (Leviticus 13:28)  “But if the bright spot stays in its place, and has not spread on the skin, but has faded, it is a swelling from the burn. And the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is the scar from the burn.
 
Infections on our skin- quarantine
 
(Leviticus 13:29)  “And when a man, or a woman, has an infection on the head or in the beard, (Leviticus 13:30) then the priest shall look at the infection and see, if it appears deeper than the skin, and there is thin yellow hair in it, then the priest shall pronounce him unclean, it is an eruption, a leprosy of the head or beard. (Leviticus 13:31)  “But when the priest looks at the infection of the eruption and sees that it does not appear deeper than the skin, and there is no black hair in it, then the priest shall shut up the one with the infection of the eruption seven days. (Leviticus 13:32)  “And on the seventh day the priest shall look at the infection and see, if the eruption has not spread, and there is no yellow hair in it, and the eruption does not appear deeper than the skin, (Leviticus 13:33)  then he shall shave himself, but the eruption he does not shave. And the priest shall shut up the one with the eruption another seven days. (Leviticus 13:34)  “And on the seventh day the priest shall look at the eruption and see, if the eruption has not spread over the skin, and does not appear deeper than the skin, then the priest shall pronounce him clean. And he shall wash his garments, and he shall be clean. (Leviticus 13:35)  “But if the eruption spreads further over the skin after his cleansing, (Leviticus 13:36)  then the priest shall look at him and see, if the eruption has spread over the skin, the priest need not seek for yellow hair, he is unclean. (Leviticus 13:37)  “But if the eruption appears to have stayed, and there is black hair grown up in it, the eruption has healed. He is clean, and the priest shall pronounce him clean. (Leviticus 13:38)  “And when a man or a woman has bright spots on the skin of the body, white bright spots, (Leviticus 13:39)  then the priest shall look and see, if the bright spots on the skin of the body are dull white, it is a white spot that grows on the skin, he is clean. (Leviticus 13:40)  “And when a man loses the hair of his head, he is bald, he is clean. (Leviticus 13:41)  “And if the hair has fallen from his forehead, he is bald on the forehead, he is clean. (Leviticus 13:42)  “And when there is on the bald head or bald forehead a reddish-white infection, it is leprosy breaking out on his bald head or his bald forehead. (Leviticus 13:43)  “And the priest shall look at it and see, if the swelling of the infection is reddish-white on his bald head or on his bald forehead, as the appearance of leprosy on the skin of the body, (Leviticus 13:44) he is a leprous man, he is unclean. The priest shall pronounce him unclean, without fail, his infection is on his head. (Leviticus 13:45)  “As for the leper who has the infection, his garments are torn, and his head is uncovered, and he has to cover his upper lip and cry, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’ (Leviticus 13:46)  “He is unclean – all the days he has the infection he is unclean. He is unclean, and he dwells alone, his dwelling place is outside the camp.
 
Yes even our garments can carry infection
 
(Leviticus 13:47)  “And when a garment has an infection of leprosy in it, in a woolen garment or in a linen garment, (Leviticus 13:48)  or in the warp or in the weft of linen or wool, or in leather or in any leather-work, (Leviticus 13:49)  and the infection shall be greenish or reddish in the garment or in the leather, or in the warp or in the weft, or in any leather object, it is an infection of leprosy and shall be shown to the priest. (Leviticus 13:50)  “And the priest shall look at the infection and shut up the infected one seven days. (Leviticus 13:51)  “And he shall look at the infection on the seventh day. And when the infection has spread in the garment, or in the warp or in the weft, or in the leather or any leather-work, the infection is an active leprosy, it is unclean. (Leviticus 13:52)  “And he shall burn that garment, or the warp or the weft, in wool or in linen or any leather object in which the infection is, for it is an active leprosy. It is burned with fire. (Leviticus 13:53)  “But if the priest looks and sees that the infection has not spread in the garment, or in the warp or in the weft, or in any leather object, (Leviticus 13:54) then the priest shall give command, and they shall wash that in which the infection is. And he shall shut it up another seven days. (Leviticus 13:55)  “And the priest shall look at the infection after it has been washed and see, if the infection has not changed its appearance, though the infection has not spread, it is unclean, and burn it in the fire – it is eaten away, in its inside or outside. (Leviticus 13:56)  “And if the priest shall look and see that the infection has faded after washing it, then he shall tear it out of the garment, or out of the warp, or out of the weft, or out of the leather. (Leviticus 13:57)  “And if it is still seen in the garment, or in the warp or in the weft, or in any leather object, it is a spreading infection. Burn it with fire, that in which the infection is. (Leviticus 13:58)  “And if you wash the garment, or the warp or the weft, or any leather object, if the infection has disappeared from it, then it shall be washed a second time, and shall be clean. (Leviticus 13:59)  “This is the Torah (Instructions-Law) of the infection of leprosy in a garment of wool or linen, or in the warp or in the weft, or in any leather object, to pronounce it clean or to pronounce it unclean.”
 
Leprosy and all operations of curses are no respecters of person
 
(2Ki 4:42)  Now a man came from Baʽal Shalishah, and brought the man of Elohim bread of the first-fruits, twenty loaves of barley bread, and newly ripened grain in his knapsack. And he said, “Give it to the people to eat.” (2Ki 4:43)  And his servant said, “What? Do I set this before one hundred men?” And he said, “Give it to the people to eat. For thus said יהוה, ‘Eat and have some left over.’ ” (2Ki 4:44) and he set it before them, and they ate and had some left over, according to the word of יהוה. (2Ki 5:1)  And Naʽaman, commander of the army of the sovereign of Aram, was a great man in the eyes of his master, and highly respected, because by him יהוה had given deliverance to Aram. And he was a brave man, but leprous. (2Ki 5:2)  And the Arameans had gone out on raids, and had brought back captive a young girl from the land of Yisra’ĕl, and she served the wife of Naʽaman. (2Ki 5:3)  And she said to her mistress, “If only my master were with the prophet who is in Shomeron! Then he would recover him of his leprosy.” (2Ki 5:4)  And Naʽaman went in and reported to his master, saying, “Thus and thus spoke the girl who is from the land of Yisra’ĕl.” (2Ki 5:5)  And the sovereign of Aram said, “Go, enter, and let me send a letter to the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl.” And he went and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of garments. (2Ki 5:6)  And he brought the letter to the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl, which said, “And now, when this letter comes to you, see I have sent Naʽaman my servant to you, so that you shall recover him of his leprosy.” (2Ki 5:7)  And it came to be, when the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl read the letter, that he tore his garments and said, “Am I Elohim, to kill and keep alive, that this man sends a man to me to recover him of his leprosy? For consider now, and see how he is seeking an occasion with me!” (2Ki 5:8)  And it came to be, when Elisha the man of Elohim heard that the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl had torn his garments, that he sent to the sovereign, saying, “Why have you torn your garments? Please let him come to me, so that he knows that there is a prophet in Yisra’ĕl.”
 
Please understand: in these last days we shall operate in the gifts of His Spirit and walk in His power if we do not reject the gifts available or assign them to the works of demons: (Luke 11:11) If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? (Luke 11:12)  Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? (Luke 11:13)  If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? (Comment: these terms- snakes and scorpions represent the powers or demons and the works of hell which Yahshua came to destroy!)
 
 (2Ki 5:9)  So Naʽaman came with his horses and chariot, and he stood at the entrance of the house of Elisha.
 
Simple obedience brings blessings and removal of curses!
 
(2Ki 5:10)  And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go, and you shall wash seven times in the Yardĕn, that your flesh might be restored to you, and be clean.” (2Ki 5:11)  But Naʽaman became wroth, and went away and said, “See, I said to myself, ‘He would certainly come out to me, and stand and call on the Name of יהוה his Elohim, and wave his hand over the place, and recover the leprosy.’ (2Ki 5:12)  “Are not the Aḇanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Dammeseq, better than all the waters of Yisra’ĕl? Could I not wash in them and be clean?” And he turned and went away in a rage.
 
Sometimes a planted word (seed) can produce repentance- which brings healing
 
(2Ki 5:13)  And his servants came near and spoke to him, and said, “My father, if the prophet had spoken to you a great matter, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he says to you, ‘Wash, and be clean’?” (2Ki 5:14)  Then he went down and dipped seven times in the Yardĕn, according to the word of the man of Elohim. And his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, and he was clean. (2Ki 5:15)  And he returned to the man of Elohim, he and all his company, and came and stood before him and said, “See, now I know that there is no Elohim in all the earth, except in Yisra’ĕl. And now, please take a gift from your servant.” (2Ki 5:16)  But he said, “As יהוה lives, before whom I stand, I do not accept it.” And he pressed on him to accept it, but he refused. (2Ki 5:17)  Then Naʽaman said, “If not, please let your servant be given two mule-loads of earth, for no longer is your servant going to make a burnt offering and slaughtering to other mighty ones, but to יהוה. (2Ki 5:18)  “יהוה grant forgiveness to your servant in this matter: when my master goes into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he leans on my hand, and I bow down in the house of Rimmon; when I bow down in the house of Rimmon, יהוה, please grant forgiveness to your servant in this matter.” (2Ki 5:19)  Then he said to him, “Go in peace.” And when he had gone from him some distance, (Comment: Wealth and riches- has power to bring a curse- as the LOVE of money is the root of all evil! Perhaps we should look at our own hearts and desires- where our hearts are- there is our TREASURE! Let’s get our transgressions uncovered since there is no “Hidden” sin- know this our-- sin will find us out- so let’s stay in a repentant mode loved one.) (2Ki 5:20)  But Gĕḥazi, the servant of Elisha the man of Elohim, said to himself, “Look, my master has spared Naʽaman this Aramean, while not receiving from his hands what he brought. But as יהוה lives, I shall run after him and take whatever from him.” (2Ki 5:21)  And Gĕḥazi pursued Naʽaman. And when Naʽaman saw him running after him, he came down from the chariot to meet him, and said, “Is there peace?” (2Ki 5:22)  And he said, “Peace. My master has sent me, saying, ‘Look, even now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the mountains of Ephrayim. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of garments.’ ” (2Ki 5:23) And Naʽaman said, “Please accept two talents.” And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and handed them to two of his servants. And they bare them ahead of him. (2Ki 5:24)  And when he came to the high place, he took them from their hand, and stored them away in the house, and let the men go, and they went. (2Ki 5:25)  And he went in and stood before his master, and Elisha said to him, “Where did you go, Gĕḥazi?” And he said, “Your servant did not go anywhere.” (2Ki 5:26)  But he said to him, “Did not my heart go with you when the man turned back from his chariot to meet you? Is it time to accept silver and to accept garments, and olive-trees and vineyards, and sheep and cattle, and male and female servants? (2Ki 5:27)  “So let the leprosy of Naʽaman cling to you and your descendants forever.” And he went out from him as leprous as snow.
 
You will never see it YHWH’s will for sickness to reign in His sons and daughters!
 
(Matthew 8:1)  And when He came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him. (Matthew 8:2)  And see, a leper came, and bowed before Him, saying, “Master, if you desire, you are able to make me clean.” (Matthew 8:3)  And stretching out His hand יהושע touched him, saying, “I desire it. Be cleansed!” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. (Matthew 8:4)  And יהושע said to him, “See, and mention it to no one. But go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Mosheh commanded, as a witness to them.”
 
My prayer for you loved one- is that we take this wonderful opportunity to fast and repent! Remember please- that fasting AND prayer removes our UNBELIEF! So we really can ask for what we desire (Biblical) and it will be given us- not maybe! The Body of Messiah is going through a great shaking just now so let’s repent of our words spoken and actions unbecoming the BRIDE- we must choose to do things His way now. (If we don’t want to be the Bride who makes herself ready- then we can continue to do things OUR way) Let’s forgive everyone that has done evil to us, cursed us, and spoken all manner of evil about us. This gives us a right standing with our Father to pray and bless others- especially those that have done wickedly in our Father’s eyes against us. Remember, if we hate or do evil against our brother or sister; Yahushua (Yeshua-Jesus) considers it MURDER- No murderers will be allowed in the Kingdom- so repentance is required- we confess our sins one to another that WE may be healed! My prayer is that we take Yahushua’s words very solemnly- obey and LIVE! Let’s make sure we repent also of words spoken in hurt or anger against others! Hallelu-YAH! May YHWH bless and direct you, provide and protect you and your loved ones- wherever they may be!
 
Loved one, please also continue to pray in agreement with us for direction, provision, protection and healing for us and many (yours and our loved ones) WHO ARE UNDER GREAT ATTACK- SOME FOR THEIR VERY LIVES!  Also, please remember to pray for mine and Billie’s protection and confusion of the enemy while we (like many of you) are “Keeping” the Feasts. I, actually- we both, return that prayer back upon you and your loved ones! YHWH hears your prayers and according to His word and promise- you/we have the thing we request! (1Jn 5:14)  And this is the boldness that we have in Him, that if we ask whatever according to His desire, He hears us. (1Jn 5:15)  And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him. Hallelu-Yah there is much power in agreement with prayer and fasting! Give thanks and dance before our King- like King David danced- and see the blessings of our Elohim poured out on you and OVERTAKING YOU! Try as you may- obedient and much loved one; you cannot outrun the blessings of YHWH! Hallelu-Yah! Nothing is more rewarding than having Yahweh’s blessings OVERTAKE us! HalleluYAH!
 
Shalom to your home loved one,

Continued explanation of 2012-13 Torah Cycle restart at beginning of monthsIt is about YHWH restoring all things which sometimes means we are walking alone. I start over annually when YHWH’s year starts over; this is not to say that I am correct and others are wrong, I just happen to believe we will never challenge our older brother Judah by following his traditions. I expect Judah will be moved by our obedience to His Torah (Words of Scripture) and seeing YHWH’s signs and wonders following our obedience- Does the statement above mean we are not to grab the tzitzit of Yehuda and take hold and learn from them? Of course not, we absolutely should learn of them and from them- just not ingest and keep that which is traditions that go against His words! Especially since we are the ten (Ten scattered northern tribes scattered for Easter and sun god day worship which parallels closely as a pig slop eating prodigal brother)

Let’s look; (Zechariah 8:22) ‘And many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek יהוה of hosts in Yerushalayim, and to pray before יהוה.’ (Zechariah 8:23)  “Thus said יהוה of hosts, ‘In those days (Now? YES and in the future also!) Ten men (10 scattered northern tribes called Ephraim and Israel) from all languages of the nations take hold, yea, they shall take hold of the edge of the garment of a man, a Yehuḏite1, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.” ’ ” Footnote: 1 John 4:22.
