Shabbat Shalom Loved One!
Loved one, please share our studies as YHWH is restoring all to Himself- Mighty is YHWH who loves you and restores all things! This study is attached for ease of print and study format- YHWH is restoring all things; that includes us who were once DRY BONES! All who KNOW (Not know about) HIM and call on Him will be delivered- HalleluYAH! 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

Today, loved one, let’s do a short “THINK ON IT” or “SELAH” walk
Well start our walk with an assumption; we all want to be found among the BRIDE when the Bridegroom arrives, right? Do we also agree that He is not coming back for a whoring adulterous bride, but a bride that makes herself ready? Remember, we are to be found BLAMELESS at His appearing, use Spiritually, Soul or culturally/mentally, and Physically –Body. He already came and took the penalty ascribed for an adulteress wife- He took the bitter waters and death so that when He returned He may come and find His bride without spot or blemish- one who has made herself ready!
We’ll need some LIGHT- OIL IN OUR LANTERNS (Holy Spirit direction) to be allowed into the Wedding- Good Reason not to reject the Baptism of His Spirit and praying in the Spirit, that we may be His witnesses and walk in His love in the earth!
The Parable of the Ten Virgins
Matthew 25:1 “Then the reign of the heavens shall be compared to ten maidens who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Matthew 25:2 “And five of them were wise, and five foolish. Matthew 25:3 “Those who were foolish, having taken their lamps, took no oil with them, Matthew 25:4 but the wise took oil in their containers with their lamps. Matthew 25:5 “Now; while the bridegroom took time, they all slumbered and slept. Matthew 25:6 “And at midnight a cry was heard, ‘See, the bridegroom is coming, go out to meet him!’ Matthew 25:7 “Then all those maidens rose up and trimmed their lamps. Matthew 25:8 “And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us of your oil, because our lamps are going out.’ Matthew 25:9 “But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, indeed, there would not be enough for us and you. Instead, go to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ Matthew 25:10 “And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut. Matthew 25:11 “And later the other maidens also came, saying, ‘Master, Master, open up for us!’ Matthew 25:12 “But he answering, said, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ Matthew 25:13 “Watch therefore, because you do not know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Aḏam is coming,
Hopefully, we agree we need His OIL which is submitting ourselves and trusting Him with His Spirit even with our tongues- which are likened to rudders on ships and bridles on horses which are for DIRECTION.
Act 1:4 And meeting with them, He commanded them not to leave Yerushalayim, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, 1 “which you have heard from Me – Footnote: 1 Luke 24:49, John 14:16 & 26. Act 1:5 because Yoḥanan truly immersed in water, but you shall be immersed in the Set-apart Spirit not many days from now.”
Hey- notice you and I are not even empowered to be witnesses unless we receive this
Act 1:8 “But you shall receive power when the Set-apart Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Yerushalayim, and in all Yehuḏah and Shomeron, and to the end of the earth.” Act 2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from the heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Act 2:3 And there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and settled on each one of them. Act 2:4And they were all filled with the Set-apart Spirit and began to speak (Pray) with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them to speak.
1 Corinthians 14:1 Pursue love, (Note: this is the directions for pursuing love as Jude 20 and 21 affirm below)and earnestly seek the spiritual gifts, but rather that you prophesy. 1 Corinthians 14:2 For he who is speaking in a tongue does not speak to men but to Elohim, for no one understands. (Note: there cannot be interpretation when we are praying to Yahweh in His spirit or tongues- unlike SPEAKING in tongues with the 9 gifts of the Spirit as the SPIRIT WILLS), but in the Spirit he speaks secrets. 1 Corinthians 14:3 But he who is prophesying speaks up building and encouragement and comfort to men. 1 Corinthians 14:4 He who is speaking in a tongue builds up (Edifies) himself, but he who is prophesying builds up the assembly.
What does that EDIFICATION accomplish in us?
Jude 1:20 But you, beloved ones, building yourselves up on your most set-apart belief, praying in the Set-apart Spirit, Jude 1:21 keep yourselves in the love of Elohim, looking for the compassion of our Master יהושעMessiah unto everlasting life. Jude 1:22 And show compassion toward some who are doubting, Jude 1:23 but others save with fear, snatching them out of the fire, hating, even the garment defiled by the flesh.1 Footnote: 1 See Galatians 5:19-21, Romans 8:5-10.
Fear not this prayer language from our Heavenly Father because Yahshua reminds us:
Luke 11:13 “If you then, being wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father from heaven give the Set-apart Spirit to those asking Him!” He references Luke 10:19 demonic realm of snakes and scorpions- things many are fearful about receiving- FEAR NOT- He knows how to give good gifts!!
Look with me, because we would be wise to judge ourselves and make corrections before we must stand in His presence and receive His Judgment:
1 Thessalonians 5:22 Abstain from every form of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Now may the Elohim of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Master Yahshua Messiah.
1 Thessalonians 5:22 Keep back from every form of wickedness. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 And the Elohim of peace Himself set you completely apart, and your entire spirit, and being, and body - be preserved blameless at the coming of our Master יהושע Messiah!
So what or who is an adulteress bride wanna be?
One that lives in harmony with the world and it’s ever increasing culture of satanic darkness, that allow lesbians to marry, homosexuals to marry, muslims to murder at will, that will look the other way when murderers kill, adulterers and adulteresses commit fornication, women kill their unwanted babies, politicians steal, murder, and do all manner of evil without remorse or correction?
The Fall of Babylon (Babylon speaks of spirit, soul, and body- or people, places and cultures- which are inhabited with unclean birds or demons and unclean spirits)
Revelation 18:1 And after this I saw another messenger (Angel) coming down from the heaven, having great authority, and the earth was lightened from his esteem. Revelation 18:2 And he cried with a mighty voice, saying, “Baḇel (The whore) the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a haunt for every unclean spirit, and a haunt for every unclean and hated bird, Revelation 18:3 because all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her whoring, and the sovereigns of the earth have committed whoring with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the power of her riotous living.” Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from the heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, (Comment: come out of her spiritually, culturally, and physically) lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.1 Footnote: 1 Jeremiah 51:6 & 45. Revelation 18:5 “Because her sins have piled up to reach the heaven and Elohim has remembered her un-righteousnesses. Revelation 18:6 “Render to her as she indeed did render, and repay her double according to her works. In the cup which she has mixed, mix for her double.
Here’s our REWARD for making ourselves ready by repenting, and determining to stand for righteousness, fleeing all manner of sin, refusing to “fit in” with this world’s darkening culture of whoredom and Satanism.
Rejoicing in Heaven
Revelation 19:1 And after this I heard a loud voice of a great crowd in the heaven, saying, “Halleluyah! Deliverance and esteem and respect and power to יהוה our Elohim! Revelation 19:2 “Because true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great whore who corrupted the earth with her whoring. And He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her.” Revelation 19:3 And a second time they said, “Halleluyah! And her smoke rises up forever and ever!” Revelation 19:4 And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped Elohim who sat on the throne, saying, “Amĕn! Halleluyah!” Revelation 19:5 And a voice came from the throne, saying, “Praise our Elohim, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!”
The Marriage Supper of the Lamb
Revelation 19:6 And I heard as the voice of a great crowd, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunders, saying, “Halleluyah, for יהוה Ěl Shaddai reigns! Revelation 19:7 “Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him praise, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife prepared herself.” Revelation 19:8And to her it was given to be dressed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteousnesses of the set-apart ones. Revelation 19:9 And he said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who have been called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’ ” And he said to me, “These are the true words of Elohim.” Revelation 19:10 And I fell at his feet to worship him, but he said to me, “See, do not do it! I am your fellow servant, and of your brothers who possess the witness of יהושע. Worship Elohim! For the witness of יהושע is the spirit of prophecy.”
The Rider on a White Horse
Revelation 19:11 And I saw the heaven opened, and there was a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Trustworthy and True, and in righteousness He judges and fights.1 Footnote: 1 See Acts 10:42. Revelation 19:12 And His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns, having a Name that had been written, which no one had perceived except Himself1 – Footnote: 1 See 2:17. Revelation 19:13 and having been dressed in a robe dipped in blood – and His Name is called: The Word of יהוה.1 Footnote: 1 John 1:1 & 14.Revelation 19:14 And the armies in the heaven, dressed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. Revelation 19:15 And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should smite the nations. And He shall shepherd them with a rod of iron. And He treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Ěl Shaddai. Revelation 19:16 And on His robe and on His thigh 1 He has a name written: SOVEREIGN OF SOVEREIGNS AND MASTER OF MASTERS. Footnote: 1 See Explanatory notes under Thigh. Revelation19:17 And I saw one messenger (Angel) standing in the sun, and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven, “Come and gather together for the supper of the great Elohim, Revelation 19:18 to eat the flesh of sovereigns, and the flesh of commanders, and the flesh of strong ones, and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, both small and great.” Revelation 19:19 And I saw the beast, and the sovereigns of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to fight Him who sat on the horse and His army. Revelation 19:20 And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he led astray those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshipped his image. The two were thrown alive into the lake of fire burning with sulphur. Revelation 19:21 And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
Loved one, you know as followers of Messiah, we will not be keeping or celebrating Halloween! Think about the name for a moment: Hallow or Set Apart- then EVE---so do all the wickedness you want as long as it is EVE- or BEFORE the hallowed time! What nonsense, we put away filthiness and overflow of evil! When we receive the engrafted word- we will both submit and obey by our doing or likely we also will be deceived and open to hasatan’s attack.
(James 1:21) Therefore put away all filthiness and overflow of evil, and receive with meekness the implanted Word, 1 which is able to save your lives. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 13:4-23. (James 1:22) And become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, 1 deceiving yourselves. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 7:24-27, Luke 6:46-49, Luke 8:21, Romans 2:13, Hebrews 4:11, Revelation 22:14. (James 1:23) If anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror, (James 1:24) for he looks at himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what he was like. (James 1:25) But he that looked into the perfect Torah, that of freedom, 1and continues in it, not becoming a hearer that forgets, but a doer of work, this one shall be blessed in his doing of the Torah. Footnote: 1 See 2:12.
(James 4:4) Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with Elohim? 1 Whoever therefore intends to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of Elohim.Footnote: 1 Matthew 13:22, Luke 4:5-6, Luke 14:33, Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15-17. (James 4:5) Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose? Does the Spirit which dwells in us intensely crave unto envy? (James 4:6) But He gives greater favor. Because of this He says, “Elohim resists the proud, but gives favor to the humble.” (James 4:7) So then subject (submit- receive and do or SHE’MAH-Hear and Obey) yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil 1 and he shall flee from you. Footnote: 1 or 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. (James 4:11) Brothers, do not speak against one another. He that speaks against a brother and judges his brother speaks against Torah and judges Torah. And if you judge Torah, you are not a doer of Torah but a judge. (James4:12) There is one Lawgiver and Judge, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?
Loved One, since all of us have now completed the Feast of Tabernacles, as many celebrated at various times over the last several months- I remind us, someday we will all be celebrating or submitting to His perfect times of the FEASTS He has for us! MORE GOOD NEWS is that we will all- who obey Him, soon enough be back in Jerusalem KEEPING THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES! Hehe so it is easy to “chill” and draw near to Him as we learn and practice to TRUST AND OBEY! Below we’ll keep this Feast of Tabernacles 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) then 15 days later is the Feast of Tabernacles- Season of our Joy!
(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.
Here’s a quick recap on how 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 in some manner every 29.54 days so in my opinion we can only have a 29 day month or a 30 day month- never a 28 or 31 day month like Pope Gregory determined. IF, we really followed His commands properly and started with the NEW MOON each month, we would not even use the Pope Gregory calendar- but we would celebrate the NEW MOON Day as a rest day and then count to 7 for the Sabbath afterward and celebrate it. He will help us as to how and when- this I am sure of- His mercy endures forever!
So YHWH is in control of what time it is in His creation! This is how we know when to celebrate (As best we know how) His Moedim- Appointments with His people. This is how we MAY NOW determine the real start of the year so we do not start over like many do on the Torah Cycle! (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 we start our Torah Cycle over- of course it is fine if you want to start over this week as many will including the Orthodox; but I like to think this is part of our restoration as YHWH is restoring all things and we start the Torah studies year when He does)
YOU KNOW IT’S TIME TO ADDRESS THIS AGAIN--HALLOW- WHAT?
Loved One- October is often the time of the Fall Feasts of YHWH; however it is also a time of conflict among many believers. While most understand that stock Halloween celebrations are rooted in the occult, many don't know the history behind this peculiar autumn festival associated with Halloween that can be entries for the occult. Before deeper into our Torah study today let’s take a look at a real and present danger and what is really the driving force of Halloween- the occult forces. You and I both know Isaiah 60 and THICK DARKNESS is in play:
Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine, for your light has come! And the esteem of יהוה has risen upon you. Isaiah 60:2 “For look, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness the peoples. But יהוה arises over you, and His esteem is seen upon you. Isaiah 60:3 “And the gentiles shall come to your light 1, and sovereigns to the brightness of your rising. Footnote: 1 Isaiah 60:19, 20, Revelation 21:23, 24. Isaiah 60:4 “Lift up your eyes all around and see: all of them have gathered, they have come to you; your sons come from afar, and your daughters are supported on the side. Isaiah 60:5 “Then you shall see and be bright, and your heart shall throb and swell, for the wealth of the sea is turned to you, the riches of the gentiles come to you. Isaiah 60:6 “A stream of camels covers your land, the dromedaries of Miḏyan and Ěphah; all those from Sheḇa come, bearing gold and incense, and proclaiming the praises of יהוה.
As usual the devil comes in slithering and masquerading as a harmless fun type of snake. Many people believe these "games" are harmless fun, and are unaware of the very real dangers they can face by dabbling in the realm of the demonic. From a Hebraic perspective this is the “celebration” of Noah’s flood we studied last week. YHWH’s judgment left them skeletons (carcasses) and spooks (demon entities with no flesh home remaining to abide in) roaming around the earth searching for a new home. In a nutshell, judgment is again headed for Planet Earth, appropriately, this time with fire. We get to choose who we will obey: (Deuteronomy 11:26) Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; (Deuteronomy 11:27) A blessing, if you obey the commandments of YHWH your Elohim, which I command you this day: (Deuteronomy 11:28) And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of YHWH your Elohim, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which you have not known.
In ancient Britain and Ireland, Where many of us (Our ancestors anyway) who belong to Ephraim, (the ten Northern Tribes of Israel, scattered around the world for our pagan practices- see Ezekiel) settled and then came from around the world; the Celtic festival of Samhain ("Sah-win") was observed on October 31, the end of summer. November 1 was the New Year for both Celtic and Anglo-Saxon calendars and was one of the most important and yet sinister calendar festivals of the Celtic Year.
NOTE: Ezekiel is a great read if you want to see why we believers are scattered over the earth, but here is the judgment pronounced- just read the entire book- you will see the warnings and the plan unfold!
Ezekiel 12:14 “And I shall scatter to every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his bands, and I shall draw out the sword after them. Ezekiel 12:15 “And they shall know that I am יהוה, when I scatter them among the gentiles. And I shall disperse them throughout the lands. Ezekiel 12:16 “But I shall let a few of their men escape from the sword, from scarcity of food, and from pestilence, so that they recount all their abominations among the gentiles wherever they go. And they shall know that I am יהוה.”
Settling in northern France and the British Isles, the Celtic people engaged in occultic arts and worshiped nature, giving it supernatural, animistic qualities. The ancient Druids were the learned priestly class of the Celtic religion. Many of their beliefs and practices were similar to those of Hinduism, such as reincarnation and the transmigration of the soul, which teaches that people may be reborn as animals. The Druids believed that on October 31, the night before their New Year and the last day of the old year, Samhain, the Lord of Death, gathered the souls of the evil dead who had been condemned to enter the bodies of animals. The Druids also believed that the punishment of the evil dead would be lightened by sacrifices, prayers and gifts to the Lord of Death. (This begins to reveal the strange link between this holiday and the non-Biblical concept of purgatory.)The souls of the dead were supposed to revisit their homes on this day, and the autumnal festival acquired a sinister significance, with ghosts, witches, hobgoblins, black cats, fairies, and demons of all kinds said to be roaming about. It was the time to placate the supernatural powers controlling the processes of nature. Halloween is, for many, a "crossover" involvement in which innocent games can lead to serious entanglement with real witches, neo-pagans, New Agers, and other occultists. A common pastime is the use of a Ouija board to attempt to contact ghosts or spirits that are believed to be roaming about. This can lead to serious consequences including demon possession. (The case studies underlying William Blatty's The Exorcist indicate that the trouble all began with a child playing with a Ouija board.) Demons have a vested interest in Halloween because it supports the occult, and it also offers novel and unexpected opportunities to control and influence people.
Forms of the occult can include mediums, channelers, clairvoyants, psychics, spiritists, diviners, mystics, gurus, shamans, psychical researchers, Yogis, psychic and holistic healers, astral travel, astrology, mysticism, Ouija boards, Tarot cards, contact with the dead, UFOs, and thousands of other practices which almost defy cataloging - even Harry Potter books and movies can lead innocent children into the occult. Occultism includes Satanism, astrology, Kabbalah, Gnosticism, theosophy, witchcraft and many forms of serious magic. It includes activities seeking the acquisition of "hidden" things - which are expressly forbidden by YHWH in the Bible. Halloween practices can open the door to the occult and can introduce forces into people's lives that they are not equipped to combat. There is genuine power in the occult, but it is demonic power (Matthewthew 24:24; Acts 13:6-11; 16:16-19; 19:18-20; 2 Corinthians 4:4; Ephesians 6:7-11, 22). Any serious study of Biblical demonology will reveal Satan as the power behind false religion, witchcraft, idolatry and the occult (Deuteronomy 32:16, 17; Psalms 106:35-40; Acts 16:16-19; 1 Corinthians 10:19-21; 2 Thessalonians 2:9, 10; 1 Timothy 4:1ff). The Word of God makes it clear that these are all to be shunned as dangerous. There were many superstitions and false concepts in ancient Israel about which the Bible is not silent. However, occultism, in any form, was punishable by death! Why? The spiritual power and reality behind idols involves demons (1 Corinthians 10:20; Psalms 106:37). The Bible commands us to shun occult practices. Mediums and spiritists are expressly prohibited (Leviticus 19:31; Deuteronomy 18:10, 11, 14 2 Chronicles 33:6). Nowhere are such practices acceptable. Intellect alone is insufficient. "If it were possible, it would deceive the very elect.
"Of course, the point is not to terrify people. The ultimate goal is to point them to the source of true protection, of true salvation, of true hope; Yahshua, who is the victor. He's already won the battle, and he is stronger than anything Satan can throw at us. Even more important, he has triumphed over death for us. He told his disciples long ago, and still tells us today, "...Rejoice not that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven" (Luke 10:20)
Here remains our choice of real and present danger guaranteed by YHWH who will require Heaven and Earth to witness us and our choices this day! We should not fear him who can kill the body but rather FEAR HIM who can cast us into hell!
(Deuteronomy 30:13) “Nor is it beyond the sea, to say, ‘Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, and cause us to hear it, so that we do it?’ (Deuteronomy 30:14) “For the Word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart – to do it. (Deuteronomy 30:15) “See, I have set before you today life and good, and death and evil, (Deuteronomy 30:16) in that I am commanding you today to love יהוה your Elohim, to walk in His ways, and to guard His commands, and His laws, and His right-rulings. And you shall live and increase, and יהוה your Elohim shall bless you in the land which you go to possess. (Deuteronomy 30:17) “But if your heart turns away, and you do not obey, and shall be drawn away, and shall bow down to other mighty ones and serve them, (Deuteronomy 30:18) “I have declared to you today that you shall certainly perish, you shall not prolong your days in the land which you are passing over the Yardĕn to enter and possess. (Deuteronomy 30:19) “I have called the heavens and the earth as witnesses today against you: I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore you shall choose life, so that you live, both you and your seed, (Deuteronomy 30:20) to love יהוה your Elohim, to obey His voice, and to cling to Him – for He is your life and the length of your days – to dwell in the land which יהוה swore to your fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give them.” Now let’s get to this week’s Torah (Instructions in Hebrew not Law) Study about loving our neighbor as ourselves!
Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Kedoshim “Holy Ones”
OBEDIENCE: How we love YHWH and love our neighbor as ourselves!
(Leviticus 19:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 19:3) ‘Each one of you should fear (honor) his mother and his father, and guard My Sabbaths. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus 19:4) ‘Do not turn to idols, and do not make for yourselves molded mighty ones. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus 19:5) ‘And when you bring a peace offering to יהוה, bring it for your acceptance. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 19:7) ‘So if it is eaten at all on the third day, it is abominable, it is not accepted, (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 19:11) ‘Do not steal, do not lie, and do not deceive one another. (Leviticus 19:12) ‘And do not swear falsely by My Name and so profane the Name of your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 19:14) ‘Do not curse the deaf or put a stumbling-block before the blind, but fear your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 19:16) ‘Do not go slandering among your people. Do not stand against the blood of your neighbor. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 19:17) ‘Do not hate your brother in your heart. Reprove your neighbor, for certain, and bear no sin because of him. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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.

(Leviticus 20:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 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.

(Leviticus 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.(Leviticus 20:7) ‘And you shall set yourselves apart, and shall be set-apart, for I am יהוה your Elohim, (Leviticus 20:8) and you shall guard My laws and do them.

(Leviticus 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. (Leviticus 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.

Their blood is upon them.’ ” (Ezekiel 22:1) and the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 22:2) “And now, son of man, judge, judge the city of blood! And you shall show her all her abominations! (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 22:5) “Those near and those far from you mock you – defiled is your name and great the confusion! (Ezekiel 22:6) “See the leaders of Yisra’ĕl: each one has used his arm to shed blood in you. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 22:8) “You have despised that which is set-apart to me, and you have profaned My Sabbaths. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 22:10) “In you they have uncovered the nakedness of a father. In you they have humbled women who are defiled during their uncleanness. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 22:16) “And you shall profane yourself before the eyes of the gentiles. And you shall know that I am יהוה.” ’ ” (Ezekiel 22:17) And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 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. (Ezekiel 22:19) “Thus said the Master יהוה; ‘Because all of you have become dross; therefore see, I am gathering you into the midst of Yerushalayim.
(Isaiah 66:1) Thus said יהוה; “The heavens are my throne, and the earth is my footstool; so where is this house that you build for me? And where is this place of my rest? (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 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.” (Isaiah 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.” (Isaiah 66:6) “A roaring sound comes from the city, a voice from the Hĕḵal, the voice of יהוה, repaying His enemies! (Isaiah 66:7) “Before she labored, she gave birth; before a pain came to her, she was delivered of a male child. (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 66:9) “Shall I bring to birth, and not give delivery?” says יהוה. “Shall I who give delivery restrain birth?” said your Elohim. (Isaiah 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; (Isaiah 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.” (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 66:13) “As one whom his mother comforts, so I comfort you. And in Yerushalayim you are comforted.” (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 66:16) “For by fire and by His sword יהוה shall judge all flesh, and the slain of יהוה shall be many – (Isaiah 66:17) those who set themselves apart and cleanse themselves at the gardens after ‘One’ in the midst, eating flesh of pigs 1 and the abomination and the mouse, are snatched away, together,” declares יהוה. Footnote: 1 See 65:4. (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 66:21) “And from them too I shall take for priests – for Lĕwites,” declares יהוה. (Isaiah 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. (This is good news!)(Isaiah 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. (Isaiah 66:24) “And they shall go forth and look upon the corpses of the men who have transgressed against me 1. For their worm shall not die and their fire not be quenched. And they shall be repulsive to all flesh!” Footnote: 1 See 24:6, 34:2-3, Psalms 110:6, Jeremiah 25:33.
Would YHWH command us to be set apart and not equip us to do that? NO WAY! We willingly choose to humble ourselves and obey His commands! Hallelu-Yah!
(1 Peter 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, (1 Peter 1:14) as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts in your ignorance, (1 Peter 1:15) instead, as the One who called you is set-apart, so you also should become set-apart in all behavior, (1 Peter 1:16) because it has been written, “Be set-apart, for I am set-apart.”
May YHWH bless you Loved Ones. Truth seekers like you are the best brothers and sisters on the Planet Earth!

(Genesis 22:18) "In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice." (Isaiah 54:11) O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colors, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. (Isaiah 54:12) And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones. (Isaiah 54:13) And all thy children shall be taught of YHWH; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
So dear Loved One, FEAR NOT about your children, just be concerned about your own right standing (Come apart from the lies we inherited in pagan traditions and all the darkness slipping and weaving its way into cultures worldwide) and obey the Father- and rest in Him concerning your children…He is the one who guarantees they’ll be taught of Him and have great peace!

Continued explanation of the Torah Cycle restart at beginning of months… It 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 Yehuḏite 1, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.”’” Footnote: 1 John 4:22.
