Shabbat Shalom Loved One!
 
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 HIM and call on His name 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- my explanation continues at end of this week’s study.
 
Watch this by Neville Johnson about the end times “OVERCOMING” REMNANT who will be THE BRIDE!

Loved one, practically speaking- we must each consider carefully and discern if each of us have lost our first love! Let’s abstain from religion and obey our King with a loving and submissive attitude as we bow to Him- His words and flee VAIN TRADITIONS on purpose!
 
 
Revelation 2:2 I know your works, and your labor, and your endurance, and that you are not able to bear evil ones, and have tried those who say they are emissaries and are not, and have found them false; Revelation 2:3 and you have been bearing up and have endurance, and have labored for My Name’s sake and have not become weary. Revelation 2:4 “But I hold this against you, that you have left your first love. Revelation 2:5 “So remember from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works, or else I shall come to you speedily and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent.
 
Revelation 2:6 “Yet this you have, that you hate the works of the Nikolaites, (Nicolaitans- Systems that “Conquer the People” with man-made doctrines of men- basically religious systems to control the people and keep them from an intimate relationship with our Heavenly Father YAHWEH that was paid for by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB- YAHSHUA MESSIAH) I also hate. Revelation 2:7 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes1 I shall give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of Elohim.” 2 Footnote: 1 This word (and its noun) is used 17 times in the Book of Revelation. Remember: the name Yisra’ĕl means to overcome with Ěl. 2 See 22:2&14. Revelation 2:8 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Smyrna write, ‘This says the First and the Last, who became dead, and came to life: Revelation 2:9 “I know your works, and pressure, and poverty – yet you are rich – and the blasphemy of those who say they are Yehuḏim and are not, but are a congregation of Satan. Revelation 2:10 “Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. See, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, in order to try you, and you shall have pressure ten days. Be trustworthy until death, and I shall give you the crown of life. Revelation 2:11 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. He who overcomes shall by no means be harmed by the second death.”’ 1 Footnote: 1 See 20:6.
 
Consider again Deuteronomy 8:17-20. Could I be wrong? OF COURSE, we are each commanded to rightly divide (Interpret)the word. Often, many of us; including yours truly, have been given a word, vision or dream and spouted out our interpretation- trying to be of service, and been 100% wrong.

I would encourage us all to fast and pray in the Spirit (See Jude 20 a few paragraphs below) and allow the Holy Spirit to guide us into truth and teach us THINGS TO COME as He promised us.

Deuteronomy 8:17 you then shall say in your heart, ‘My power and the strength of my hand have made for me this wealth!’ Deuteronomy 8:18 “But you shall remember יהוה your Elohim, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, in order to establish His covenant which, He swore to your fathers, as it is today. Deuteronomy 8:19 “And it shall be, if you by any means forget יהוה your Elohim, and follow other mighty ones, and serve them and bow yourself to them, I have warned you this day that you shall certainly perish. Deuteronomy 8:20 “Like the nations which יהוה is destroying before you, so you are to perish, because you did not obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim.

It is approaching and APPOINTED TIME (It wasn’t in Daniel’s days) Loved One that we become doers of His word and DO EXPLOITS in His name which is His character and integrity represented in our relationship with Him and in Him! The Refiner’s Fire is upon us, the appointed time… at the TIME OF THE END.
Daniel 11:31 And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation. Daniel 11:32 Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their Elohim shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. Daniel 11:33 And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering. Daniel 11:34 Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by intrigue. Daniel 11:35 And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time. (Moedim- Feasts of Yahweh- Set-Apart Appointments with our King and Creator)
 
We are warned to keep our hearts humble and obedient and DO NOT LET OUR HEARTS HARDEN AND SEARED BY SIN AND WICKEDNESS AMONG US- We allow His Set-Apart Spirit to mold and direct us- that we might walk in His Love!
Hebrews 3:7 Therefore, as the Set-apart Spirit says, “Today, if you hear His voice, Hebrews 3:8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of trial in the wilderness, Hebrews 3:9 where your fathers tried Me, proved Me, and saw My works forty years.
1 John 3:23 And this is His command, that we should believe in the Name of His Son יהושע Messiah and love one another, as He gave us command. 1 John 3:24 And the one guarding His commands stays in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He stays in us, by the Spirit which He gave us.1 Footnote: 1 John 14:23-24, Acts 5:32, Romans 8:7-11, 1 John 2:5, 1 John 4:13.
John 4:13 By this we know that we stay in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. 1 John 4:14 And we have seen and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son, Savior of the world. 1 John 4:15 Whoever confesses that יהושע is the Son of Elohim, Elohim stays in him, and he in Elohim.
Joel 2:27 “And you shall know that I am in the midst of Yisra’ĕl 1, and that I am יהוה your Elohim and there is no one else. And My people shall never be put to shame. Footnote: 1 See Isaiah 24:23. Joel 2:28 “And after this it shall be that I pour out My Spirit on all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men dream dreams, your young men see visions. Joel 2:29 “And also on the male servants and on the female servants I shall pour out My Spirit in those days. Joel 2:30 “And I shall give signs in the heavens and upon the earth: blood and fire and columns of smoke, Joel 2:31 the sun is turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of יהוה. Joel 2:32And it shall be that everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה shall be delivered 1. For on Mount Tsiyon and in Yerushalayim there shall be an escape 2 as יהוה has said, and among the survivors whom יהוה calls. Footnotes: 1 Acts 2:21, Romans 10:13. 2 Isaiah 4:2-3, Obadiah v. 17, Revelation 14:1.
Here’s how we stay empowered to walk in His Love and Faith to do the works of Yahshua!
 
Jude 1:20 But you, beloved ones, building yourselves up on your most set-apart belief (Faith-Trust), praying in the Set-apart Spirit, Jude 1:21 keep yourselves in the love of Elohim, looking for the compassion of our Master יהושע Messiah 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.
 
 Okay let’s review the Fall Feasts of our Master Yahshua
 
Many have completed the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) a day of repentance and fasting. Next was (Yom Kippur/Atonement) when we AFFLICTED OUR SOULS; which is always Hebraically considered fasting. (1John 1:9) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.  Let's look: 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 23:29 “For any being who is not afflicted on that same day, he shall be cut off from his peopleLeviticus 23:30 “And any being who does any work on that same day, that being I shall destroy from the midst of his peopleLeviticus 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 יהוהLeviticus 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, as you can readily see, I am extending our effort to share about the Fall Feasts- because we have so many new subscribers- my heart’s desire is to see them understand and HEAR AND DO. These feasts are the shadow pictures of what is to come. We will never understand what is happening today without submitting to His words and in that submission; learning to hear and obey Him.
 
Please share our studies as YHWH is restoring all to Himself- people from 120 plus 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 to Scott in Texas for posting this weekly teaching and Brian and Kendra for starting this site many years ago! These are labors of love for YHWH’s Torah and people! These are the “DAYS of ELIJAH” loved one, the Fall Feasts started with the Feast of Trumpets, then the Days of Awe leading up to Atonement or Yom Kippur, and the 5th day following starting the Feast of Tabernacles- which many that try and submit to Obey His Feasts and commands; if not most, are already celebrating. The 10 DAYS OF AWE (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 9th day counting from Trumpets and will be Thursday evening at sundown. THE LAST GREAT DAY starts after the seven days of Tabernacles, which is the SEASON OF REJOICING! It is appropriate and a picture of our future when we will look around and shout Hallelu YAH’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) then 15 days later is the Feast of Tabernacles- Season of our Joy which we will someday celebrate in the Kingdom 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 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. 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 “Organized Religion like some church systems which often is controlled by man and likened by Yahshua as the thing He hates- the Nicolaitans- which means Nico- to conquer- Laitans- the People (Revelation 2:6) handed down from the anything but “Holy” Roman Empire ruler Constantine; who was a sun god worshiper 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 יהוהDo 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 Leviticus18:3, Deuteronomy 12:30 & 18:9, Ezekiel11:12 & 20:32, Ephesians 4:17, 1 Peter 4:3. 2 Deuteronomy 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, Proverbs 30:6, Revelation 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?
 
Let’s make SURE we are not among those who worship Him “IN VAIN”! Maybe we should consider doing only what He says and not what tradition allows-THESE ARE THE DAYS OF REPENTANCE!
 
Worship in VAIN? Goodness – 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?   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 Elohim1because 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 tradition.  Matthew 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 15:9 But in vain do they worship me, teaching as my doctrines- the commands of men.’”1 Footnote: 1 Isaiah 29:13, Mark 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 Exodus 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 Yahshua (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. (Comment- Made fuller and properly interpreted; NEVER in Greek, Hebrew or ANY language does FULFILL MEAN FINISHED AND DONE AWAY WITH- loved one- we can all plainly see there is still a heaven and an earth!) (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 we have the DAY OF ATONEMENT or some of us call Judgment Day or Yom Kippur; then 5 days later we have The Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkoth when we tabernacle or dwell with Him forever; 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 repeating with emphasis our command to OBEY: (Matthew 5:17) think not that I am come to destroy the law, 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.
 
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) יהוהLet 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
 
(2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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.’” (2 Kings 4:44) and he set it before them, and they ate and had some left over, according to the word of יהוה(2 Kings 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(2 Kings 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. (2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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. (2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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!” (2 Kings 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! If we really understand the purposes of receiving in humbled obedience His baptizing us in His Holy Set-Apart Spirit- was that we would overcome and receive our crown- by becoming His witnesses on the earth-) Act 1:7 And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. 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.”
 
 
(2 Kings 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!
 
(2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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 ofיהוה his Elohim, and wave his hand over the place, and recover the leprosy.’ (2 Kings 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
 
(2 Kings 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’?” (2 Kings 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. (2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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. (2 Kings 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(2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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.) 
 
(2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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?” (2 Kings 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.’” (2 Kings 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. (2 Kings 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. (2 Kings 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.” (2 Kings 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? (2 Kings 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! Let’s forgive everyone that has done evil to us, cursed us, and spoken all manner of evil about us. There is a great shaking going on in the Body of Messiah as the Bride will do things His way and make herself ready! (We can do it OUR way if we don't want to be the honored BRIDE!) This obedience 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! 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).   (1John 5:14) And this is the boldness that we have in Him, that if we ask whatever according to His desire, He hears us. (1John 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 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.
