This video is a treasure trove of nuggets from the first several chapters of Genesis including: •The definition of the word “Torah”. •The Aleph and Tov (Alpha and Omega) explained. •The nature of the Godhead from a Hebraic perspective explained. •What or Who was the primordial light that illuminated the earth for the first three days of creation before the sun was created on the fourth day. •How the sun and moon determine the biblical calendar. •What the sun and moon are prophetic symbols of and how that relates to you. •The first Torah commands of the Bible. •The Sabbath commanded from creation by the Creator’s example. •The Garden of Eden and its prophetic implications.
The info in this video will both inspire and amaze you as well as whet your appetite for more of Elohim’s Word, plus strengthen your faith in the Word of Elohim and in Yeshua the Messiah.
In this video, Nathan discusses two subjects that are hardly talked about in the mainstream church: namely the warrior bride of Yeshua and what is the kingdom of Elohim. These fundamental aspects of the gospel message are typically overlooked in churchianity, even though they figure prominently in end times biblical prophecy and the future destiny of serious Bible believing Christians and followers of Yeshua/Jesus the Messiah. This is an encouraging and uplifting message that will light your fire!
From October 19–25 we will be celebrating the biblical Feast of Tabernacles (or Chag haSukkot in Hebrew) and the Eighth Day (or Shemini Atzeret in Hebrew) on October 26. To help you to plumb the depths of meaning of these most joyous celebrations which memorialize in advance the final steps in YHVH’s plan of redemption for mankind, we invite you to avail yourselves of these free resources available through this ministry.
The new 2024–2025 Bible reading schedule has been published and is available for free download in pdf format. You can find it on the Helpful Links column on the right side of the Hoshana Rabbah Blog page. Here is the link: https://hoshanarabbah.org/pdfs/read-bible-in-a-year-2024-2025.pdf.
The Bible reading schedule is unique in that it incorporates within it the traditional Jewish one year Torah reading schedule, plus each day you read from not only the Torah but also from the Prophets (Neviim), the Writings (Ketuvim) and the Testimony of Yeshua (New Testament). This is a rewarding, well-balanced and holistic approach to reading the Bible.
May Yah bless you mightily as you read through the Bible in a year!
It is here! A day of joy or sorrow depending on whose spiritual team you are on—YHVH’s our the devil’s.
On Monday, October 14, 2024 we will be celebrating Yom Kippur, 2024 according to the visible crescent new moon, abib barley, ancient Torah-based calendar. Leviticus 23:26 commands YHVH’S people to celebrate Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement on the tenth day of the seventh month on the biblical year. Exactly 10 days ago, the new moon was spotted in Israel making October 14, then, the tenth day of the seventh month. In five days we will begin celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles (Chag haSukkot). HalleluYah! To learn more about the Day of Atonement so that you can celebrate it with meaning and joy, please read on.
But before we proceed to our list of links to a whole boatload of free instructional materials on Yom Kippur, so that you can celebrate it with purpose and meaning, we must first address some destructive heresies regarding some erroneous so-called biblical calendars out there. The sword of the Spirit is sharp and two-edged, for it divides soul and spirit, between lies and truth, between fact and fiction, between the Word of Elohim and the traditions of men. Some people may find the truth to be offensive, but who are we aiming to please here? YHVH or men? Let us be those who prefer the praise of YHVH Elohim over those of men! Selah.
In the Messianic, Hebraic roots or pro-Torah Christian community there is much debate, strife and confusion over biblical calendars, sadly. We refuse to be part of this. We give the biblical reasons for why we adhere to the biblical visible new moon, abib barely calendar by giving you the most accurate information from the Bible that is possible, then we allow you to decide for yourself what you will do. We are not your judge in these matters. We speak the truth and let the chips fall where they may. Each us is eventually and ultimately answerable to YHVH for our actions be they good or bad with regard to serving and obeying him.
That said, I can say with full assurance and authority that all the various designer, flavor of the month calendars out there except one are based on ignoring Scriptures that disagree with their premise, twisting Scriptures including Hebrew word meaning, or relying on the traditions of men and extra-biblical sources without which none of these non-biblical calendars will stand against the Truth of the Bible. Let me give you some examples of what I mean.
In my articles and videos on the new moon, abib barley calendar, I prove the validity of this calendar solely from the Bible. Yes, I quote a few extra-biblical sources as confirmation, but these are not needed to prove the point as you will see if you read or watch the materials that I present. This is not the case with the any of the other calendars out there. For example,
The rabbinic Jewish calendar currently in use by Judaism worldwide was created in the fourth century AD and was approved by Emperor Constantine. It is an inaccurate calendar. This year, for example, the Jews are celebrating a pseudo Yom Kippur on the eighth day of the seventh month, not on the tenth day as the Torah commands. So discard this calendar.
Then there is the calendar based on the astronomical conjunction of the new moon. This too is a non-biblical calendar. Those who adhere to this calendar either twist or ignore the Scriptures that prove that the new moon must be seen. It is a visible, not an invisible, sign in the heavens that determines the beginning of the new month.
Then there is the calendar that is based on the sun’s equinox. Again, no matter how you search or twist the Scriptures, the Bible makes no mention of the equinox.
Then there is the Zadok, Qumran or Enoch calendar. Again, this calendar relies solely on extra-biblical sources as well as the twisting of Scriptures, the deliberate mistranslating of Hebrew words to mean something that they do not mean or the flat-out ignore of Scriptures that render this calendar invalid.
There are bevy of other calendars out there too such as the Noah calendar, the eternal truth calendar, the lunar Sabbah calendar and too many more to mention here.
Enough said. Either we follow the whole Truth of the Bible based on solid biblical and linguistic research or we don’t. The choice is yours.
