We have a buy a coffee 0:03:47.900 --> 0:03:50.770 in the notes below. Just help us out a little bit. 0:03:50.810 --> 0:03:53.570 We would really appreciate that. Okay, so I'm going to 0:03:53.610 --> 0:03:57.470 start here. I'm going to go to Leviticus 23, and 0:03:57.490 --> 0:04:00.730 I'm going to read verse 23 to 25. It's just 0:04:00.850 --> 0:04:05.100 these three verses. And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, Speak 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.120 to the sons of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.090 in the first day of the month, You shall have 0:04:11.150 --> 0:04:16.270 a Sabbath, a memorial of summons, a holy convocation. You 0:04:16.310 --> 0:04:19.750 shall do no work of labor, but you shall offer 0:04:19.890 --> 0:04:24.260 a fire offering to Jehovah. Now, just that little bit 0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:32.060 alone is so revealing. But before we even start that, 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:35.539 you know, the question is, why do we do this? 0:04:36.310 --> 0:04:36.500 Right? 0:04:36.810 --> 0:04:42.109 Why do we do this? Every detail... that happened to 0:04:42.150 --> 0:04:46.650 Yeshua at Passover was revealed in the whole Passover plan. 0:04:47.710 --> 0:04:52.360 So if you don't understand the Passover events, then you're 0:04:52.380 --> 0:04:55.420 going to miss all those things that Yeshua did. He 0:04:55.460 --> 0:04:59.840 told you, you know, he said something about Psalm 22. 0:04:59.839 --> 0:05:04.310 He said something about Psalm 53 or Isaiah 53 and 54. 0:05:07.540 --> 0:05:10.480 If you don't understand those scriptures, then you're going to 0:05:10.540 --> 0:05:13.920 miss the opportunity to understand what exactly is he saying 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:17.740 when he's on the cross or on the tree. Now, 0:05:18.740 --> 0:05:23.060 in that same understanding, you also have to understand that 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:27.960 his return or his coming back is also revealed in 0:05:28.020 --> 0:05:30.320 those holy days in Leviticus 23. Yeah, I. 0:05:32.740 --> 0:05:37.390 Just want to say that, you know, without the understanding... 0:05:38.330 --> 0:05:42.510 that Yeshua, the imagery of Yeshua here being the Messiah, 0:05:43.130 --> 0:05:46.219 without that understanding, it sort of just breaks the whole 0:05:46.660 --> 0:05:51.820 meaning of Yom Teruah. Like, it doesn't make sense exactly 0:05:52.320 --> 0:05:56.930 what it means if there's no Messiah. 0:05:57.290 --> 0:06:00.050 Yeah, because, well, you know, first of all, all the 0:06:00.130 --> 0:06:04.510 holy days, every single holy day is about the Messiah. 0:06:04.950 --> 0:06:05.150 Right. 0:06:05.510 --> 0:06:08.880 Every single sacrifice on those holy days, and even the 0:06:08.980 --> 0:06:14.100 ones during the regular weekly time, is about the Messiah. So, 0:06:14.940 --> 0:06:18.240 if you don't understand that, and you make a great point, 0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.920 if you don't understand that, then what are we doing 0:06:22.700 --> 0:06:23.839 talking about the Messiah? 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:28.240 Yeah, I mean, we, you know, the Rambam made guesses 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:30.860 at what it could have meant, and I was looking 0:06:30.900 --> 0:06:33.990 this up before a podcast, and he said, uh, Awake 0:06:34.190 --> 0:06:39.910 sleepers from your sleep. Examine your deeds and return in repentance. 0:06:40.130 --> 0:06:45.120 So it's kind of like, he's blending that in with, okay, 0:06:45.140 --> 0:06:49.940 there's this coming thing called the Day of Atonement. So 0:06:50.140 --> 0:06:55.380 he's connecting the two. He's connecting it with repentance. But 0:06:55.420 --> 0:06:57.219 this also, yeah, go ahead. 0:06:58.050 --> 0:07:01.290 Well, what he's done and what you're hinting at is, 0:07:02.230 --> 0:07:07.820 The next holy day of Yom Teruah, Feast of Trumpets, 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:11.620 Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, which is 10 days later, 0:07:11.940 --> 0:07:15.560 he's connecting those two together and telling you to wake 0:07:15.700 --> 0:07:19.270 up and return, which is in Hebrew, the word Shubah. 0:07:19.310 --> 0:07:22.150 I love the word Shub. Shub, where we get to 0:07:22.270 --> 0:07:29.390 Shubah or repent or return to obeying God. And that's 0:07:29.450 --> 0:07:31.740 this whole, it's what we call the 10 days of 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:36.300 awe So, again, we're already expanding this out. And we 0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:41.500 just started. Free game plan. We're going to focus on 0:07:42.660 --> 0:07:45.140 just the Feast of Trumpets to get you to listen 0:07:45.180 --> 0:07:48.580 and understand. But it's almost impossible to do because it's 0:07:48.620 --> 0:07:50.380 so wrapped up in all these other things. 0:07:50.700 --> 0:07:53.120 Right, right, right. 0:07:53.140 --> 0:07:57.290 So, you have another verse you want to read. Numbers. Oh, yeah. 0:07:57.390 --> 0:08:00.270 I was going to go to Numbers. Numbers 29 says, 0:08:01.420 --> 0:08:04.820 It says, and in the seventh month, this is verse one, 0:08:05.840 --> 0:08:07.700 on the first day of the month, you shall have 0:08:07.740 --> 0:08:13.320 a holy convocation. You shall do no servile work. It 0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:17.940 is a day of blowing trumpets unto you. And the 0:08:17.980 --> 0:08:19.580 point that I was going to, like the first thing 0:08:19.620 --> 0:08:22.760 that jumps out to me when I'm reading this is, well, 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:24.700 how do you know what the first day of the 0:08:24.780 --> 0:08:25.280 month is? 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:31.000 Yes. So even when I read Leviticus 23, On the 0:08:31.060 --> 0:08:33.160 first day of the month. How do you know what 0:08:33.179 --> 0:08:34.280 the first day of the month is? 0:08:34.820 --> 0:08:35.080 Right. 0:08:35.340 --> 0:08:41.990 And that, in itself, has become a controversial issue. So, 0:08:42.030 --> 0:08:47.250 you know, like I was taught in the Worldwide Church 0:08:47.309 --> 0:08:51.850 of God about the holy days using the Hillel calendar. 0:08:52.370 --> 0:08:57.700 And that Hillel calendar was, okay, that's Jewish. The Jews 0:08:57.750 --> 0:08:58.480 are all using it. 0:08:58.940 --> 0:09:00.620 Oh, so they were using it even in the Worldwide 0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:01.880 Church of God, huh? 0:09:01.900 --> 0:09:02.640 Yeah. 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:03.590 Okay, okay. 0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:06.290 Yeah, so most, a lot of messianics, a lot of 0:09:06.809 --> 0:09:09.210 people who are coming back to Torah begin to use 0:09:09.230 --> 0:09:10.770 the Hillel calendar because it's Jewish. 0:09:11.270 --> 0:09:11.490 Sure. 0:09:11.730 --> 0:09:19.050 Yeah, it makes sense. But they never examined that detail 0:09:19.890 --> 0:09:24.030 beyond that because everyone just does it. So I never 0:09:24.110 --> 0:09:29.320 examined it. And then in 2005 when my you know, 0:09:29.760 --> 0:09:37.330 revelations began to happen, I was confronted with the idea 0:09:37.510 --> 0:09:40.829 of the first of the month being according to the 0:09:40.870 --> 0:09:45.200 crescent moon. Right. Versus the Hillel calendar, which is going 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:52.300 by the conjunction moon. And that, no, all the Jews 0:09:52.380 --> 0:09:56.010 are using the Hillel calendar. But it was at that 0:09:56.110 --> 0:09:58.480 time that I started looking at when did the Hillel 0:09:58.500 --> 0:10:03.380 calendar start? It started in 358. And then later, in 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:06.599 the last five years, I only started to understand it 0:10:06.620 --> 0:10:11.500 didn't start in 358. Hillel created it in 358, potentially. 0:10:12.590 --> 0:10:17.290 And he was the Nasi, or the leading head rabbi 0:10:17.330 --> 0:10:17.890 at the time. 0:10:18.210 --> 0:10:18.410 Right. 0:10:18.710 --> 0:10:21.310 But he knew they were going into diaspora. They were 0:10:21.330 --> 0:10:23.630 being spread out. They were being kicked out of Jerusalem. 0:10:24.030 --> 0:10:28.510 He knew that. So he created this calendar out of 0:10:28.590 --> 0:10:32.960 necessity so that everybody in the diaspora, spread all around 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:36.319 the world, would be able to keep the holy days 0:10:36.820 --> 0:10:43.980 at the same time. That was his purpose. Right. Over time, now, 0:10:44.340 --> 0:10:46.439 not everyone began to use it because we have these 0:10:46.500 --> 0:10:49.040 tombstones from the south end of the Dead Sea. that 0:10:49.179 --> 0:10:54.580 only started to use this stuff starting in 431 A.D., 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.819 so almost, what, 80 years later? 0:10:58.380 --> 0:10:59.939 Right. 0:10:59.940 --> 0:11:01.860 70, 80 years later. So it was a slow drip. 0:11:02.740 --> 0:11:05.120 It was a slow drift. And that was just, what, 0:11:05.700 --> 0:11:11.750 you know, an hour's drive, two hours' drive south of Jerusalem. Right. So, again, 0:11:12.290 --> 0:11:15.080 it took almost 70, 80 years before they started using it, 0:11:15.110 --> 0:11:17.170 and then even they began to adopt some of these 0:11:17.290 --> 0:11:21.530 other changes that were coming along. So the original Hillel 0:11:21.630 --> 0:11:29.469 calendar had developed and then additions were being added to it. 0:11:30.410 --> 0:11:31.750 They tweaked it over time. 0:11:32.740 --> 0:11:36.510 They're called the Dehiot, I believe is how you pronounce it, 0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:43.200 the postponement rules. So those postponement rules, the very first 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:49.360 or second says that we calculate the moon according to 0:11:49.420 --> 0:11:53.940 this formula, in order, here's the important part, in order 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:57.620 that the moon will not be seen in another part 0:11:57.660 --> 0:12:02.199 of the world before it is seen in Jerusalem. Well, 0:12:02.220 --> 0:12:06.200 if you're doing a calculation for the conjunction moon, why 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:08.359 would you be worried about somebody seeing the moon in 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:15.640 another part of the world before your calculations? Which tells 0:12:15.710 --> 0:12:22.130 you that the postponement rules and the whole Hillel calendar 0:12:22.910 --> 0:12:26.670 originally was set up so that they could know when 0:12:26.710 --> 0:12:29.780 the crescent moon would be seen. So that they could 0:12:29.820 --> 0:12:33.900 keep the calendar according to that method. Right. Then over time, 0:12:33.940 --> 0:12:34.800 it gets forgotten. 0:12:35.580 --> 0:12:36.220 Right, right. 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:40.750 And then over time, they begin to add these other formula. 0:12:41.730 --> 0:12:46.840 And that took place over... almost a thousand years. So 0:12:46.860 --> 0:12:52.700 it's from 358 to 1170. And 1170 is when Rambam 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:56.740 codified everything into the, what we call the Mishnah Torah. 0:12:58.020 --> 0:13:02.570 And that set this as, that's now the law everywhere. 0:13:02.950 --> 0:13:03.710 Right, right. 0:13:03.730 --> 0:13:07.230 We're going to go by the calculated method. Right. But 0:13:07.270 --> 0:13:11.089 during this period, there were a bunch of rebels called 0:13:11.110 --> 0:13:15.449 the Karaites. And they continued to use the crescent moon 0:13:16.070 --> 0:13:19.930 as the start of their month each year or each month. 0:13:19.950 --> 0:13:22.930 I want to point out something, though, because, you know, OK, 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:25.280 the utility of the Hillel calendar was so that they 0:13:25.300 --> 0:13:28.360 would have a calendar that they could rely on to 0:13:28.420 --> 0:13:33.559 justifiably approximate the new moon when they're not in the land. 0:13:34.590 --> 0:13:39.370 Because they knew, you know, the temple's gone, they don't 0:13:39.570 --> 0:13:44.090 really own the land anymore, so they're being dispersed. And 0:13:44.190 --> 0:13:47.720 so during the time that Maimonides is solidifying this, it's okay, 0:13:47.740 --> 0:13:50.760 this is what we're doing, they're still in the diaspora. 0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:54.140 There's no such thing as a state of Israel yet. 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:56.040 And like what you said. 0:13:56.080 --> 0:13:59.700 It took them... Let me jump in. Maimonides is writing 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:01.339 in the 11th century. 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:01.679 What, 1600? No, 11th. 0:14:04.230 --> 0:14:08.310 11th century, or 10th century. He's living in Spain. And 0:14:08.390 --> 0:14:12.550 then he moves back to Egypt in Alexandria. But that's 0:14:12.610 --> 0:14:14.849 the time period that this has taken place, and that's 0:14:14.870 --> 0:14:17.960 where he's living. He's outside the land the entire time. 0:14:18.460 --> 0:14:23.960 Right, right. So, like what you pointed out, it took them, what, 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:27.240 80 years for it just to go from Jerusalem to 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:31.240 just a little bit south of Jerusalem? So... Just thinking 0:14:31.270 --> 0:14:34.260 about that, the modern state of Israel has only been here, what, 0:14:34.260 --> 0:14:40.340 75 years? Something like that? Approximately? So it's kind of like, 0:14:40.940 --> 0:14:43.460 you know, because the first question that comes to mind is, okay, 0:14:44.020 --> 0:14:46.360 they're back in the land. Why don't they go back 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.520 to the barley and the crescent moon? And it's like, 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:51.420 it's a slow drip, you know, like it's. 0:14:52.380 --> 0:14:55.200 Well, so they do know about it. 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:56.920 Yeah, I know they know about it. 0:14:57.400 --> 0:14:59.900 The New Moon Society that's now going out to look 0:14:59.920 --> 0:15:02.540 for the New Moon. But that's a result of the 0:15:02.580 --> 0:15:05.060 terrorites continuing to push this issue. 0:15:05.580 --> 0:15:05.840 Right. 0:15:06.100 --> 0:15:09.760 So they've gone out. Now they're doing actual records of 0:15:09.820 --> 0:15:12.770 when the New Moon can be seen, who's seen it, 0:15:12.980 --> 0:15:15.540 and they're recording people who do that. I've actually got 0:15:15.580 --> 0:15:17.780 my name on the list as being a witness one time, 0:15:18.420 --> 0:15:21.820 which is cool. But they know it. So here's what 0:15:21.860 --> 0:15:24.440 they are saying. They know that they must go back 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:25.610 to that system. 0:15:26.110 --> 0:15:26.370 Right. 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:30.950 But Because it's going to upset a lot of Jews 0:15:30.990 --> 0:15:36.830 all around the world, and it's unpredictability of it, they 0:15:36.870 --> 0:15:38.590 are saying, we're just going to leave it until the 0:15:38.630 --> 0:15:43.380 Messiah comes and he can fix it when he comes back. Right, right, yeah. Except. 0:15:43.780 --> 0:15:46.900 It's just like the temple issue. They're split on that too. 0:15:47.860 --> 0:15:53.340 So, but Yeshua said, before he comes back, Elijah's going 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:57.090 to come and restore all things. Yep. So if Elijah's 0:15:57.130 --> 0:15:59.250 got to come back and restore all things, what are 0:15:59.290 --> 0:16:01.570 those things that he must restore? And one of the 0:16:01.610 --> 0:16:05.330 most obvious things is the calendar issue. Right. 0:16:05.670 --> 0:16:05.950 Right. 0:16:06.310 --> 0:16:06.530 Right. 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.460 So what we're talking about here is the first of 0:16:10.500 --> 0:16:11.859 the month. How to know when the first of the 0:16:11.900 --> 0:16:14.840 month is. That's what we're talking about. This is a 0:16:14.940 --> 0:16:15.520 big deal. 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:16.340 It really is. 0:16:17.500 --> 0:16:23.090 And to learn about the calendars in the first place 0:16:23.130 --> 0:16:28.820 and then to have to now change again. You know, 0:16:29.100 --> 0:16:32.080 I got to get more teeth pulled, right? This is hard. 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:38.200 I'm going to lose more friends. But this was the 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:43.600 challenge I had in 2005. Would I obey what I 0:16:43.660 --> 0:16:49.120 just learned about the crescent moon? Or would I continue 0:16:49.140 --> 0:16:52.330 to do what I've been doing for, what, 20 years 0:16:52.370 --> 0:16:57.239 before that? Right, right. Keeping a little calendar. So I 0:16:57.280 --> 0:17:00.850 didn't know which one was right. So what I did 0:17:00.890 --> 0:17:01.910 was I'll just do both. 0:17:01.930 --> 0:17:02.750 Right. 0:17:02.770 --> 0:17:07.250 I'll do both. And then Passover, I thought I could hide, 0:17:07.270 --> 0:17:10.270 you know, do one one day and one the next 0:17:10.290 --> 0:17:11.670 and nobody would really notice, right? 0:17:12.060 --> 0:17:12.419 Right. 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:16.859 But in 2005, Nehemia Gordon, who is the one who 0:17:16.900 --> 0:17:20.200 revived this, you know, the crescent moon and the barley, 0:17:20.750 --> 0:17:23.210 Said that the barley was ready 30 days ahead of 0:17:23.250 --> 0:17:29.000 the Hillel calendar. And now I'm being exposed. Now I 0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:30.240 take time off twice. 0:17:30.940 --> 0:17:31.200 Right. 0:17:31.800 --> 0:17:38.679 From work. So, but at Passover that year, as I, 0:17:39.020 --> 0:17:41.560 right as I obeyed Passover, according to the crescent moon 0:17:41.580 --> 0:17:45.399 and the barley, then as I started thinking about the 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:47.690 Feast of Trumpets, which is what we're talking about today. 0:17:48.109 --> 0:17:48.330 Right. 0:17:50.150 --> 0:17:54.450 The obvious, the obvious hit me like a sledgehammer. Like 0:17:54.520 --> 0:18:00.740 it was, you know, I couldn't believe it. So I 0:18:00.780 --> 0:18:04.240 went to know when the crescent moon is, you have 0:18:04.260 --> 0:18:05.119 to go out and look for it. 0:18:05.580 --> 0:18:06.060 Right. 0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:08.800 So I'd gone out, you know, I went out there 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:10.980 that month and I looked for it. I couldn't see it. 0:18:12.180 --> 0:18:15.380 Where am I? You know, I'm looking, I can't see it. Right. 0:18:17.990 --> 0:18:20.230 But then somebody else saw it in Israel. I wasn't 0:18:20.290 --> 0:18:22.730 in Israel, but it's from Israel. I went and I 0:18:22.790 --> 0:18:26.970 heard the report. Okay. Well, that's really interesting. And then 0:18:27.230 --> 0:18:30.730 Yeshua says something. No man can know the day or 0:18:30.750 --> 0:18:36.250 the hour. For 20 years in the Worldwide Church of God, 0:18:36.490 --> 0:18:40.940 I was taught that Yeshua was coming on the Feast 0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:43.399 of Trumpets. His return was on the Feast of Trumpets. 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:45.899 That he was coming at a day and hour nobody 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:48.090 could know. And that was the Feast of Trumpets. But 0:18:48.109 --> 0:18:50.909 the Feast of Trumpets, according to them, was a calculated 0:18:50.990 --> 0:18:56.889 and we could plan it out years in advance. But 0:18:56.930 --> 0:19:01.939 that lightning rod moment in 2005, nobody can know the 0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:07.720 day or the hour. Nobody can know the stinking day 0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:11.080 or the hour. Why can't they know? We've got to 0:19:11.180 --> 0:19:15.710 calculate a little calendar. Why can't we know? Ah! We 0:19:15.750 --> 0:19:19.730 can know. We got to know the calendar's wrong. Why 0:19:19.810 --> 0:19:20.709 can't we know? 0:19:21.710 --> 0:19:23.870 Because you have to go and sight the new moon yourself. 0:19:23.890 --> 0:19:24.889 You have to wait for it. 0:19:26.600 --> 0:19:29.379 You have to have two witnesses. This is where the 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:32.379 two witnesses all come in. You have two witnesses out 0:19:32.420 --> 0:19:34.479 there looking for the moon. And when you go out 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:36.900 to do it, and I still remember when I first 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:38.460 did it, I remember when you said you did it 0:19:38.500 --> 0:19:42.100 with your daughters. You're looking, you can't see it, you know. 0:19:42.100 --> 0:19:43.620 I don't know where it is. 0:19:43.619 --> 0:19:45.320 And I thought we i thought we were going to 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:47.820 miss it too like i but and then all of 0:19:47.859 --> 0:19:49.679 a sudden boom there it was it was like we 0:19:49.700 --> 0:19:51.180 saw it i was like oh there it is. 0:19:51.920 --> 0:19:55.619 And what happened what what did that tell you about 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:56.420 that day. 0:19:57.570 --> 0:19:59.369 Well it told me that it was the first of 0:19:59.390 --> 0:20:00.909 the month right it told me that it was the 0:20:00.950 --> 0:20:02.070 feast of trumpets. 0:20:02.350 --> 0:20:05.990 But you didn't know that it was right up until 0:20:06.050 --> 0:20:09.510 that instant that you saw it right right so that 0:20:10.350 --> 0:20:13.070 Like that's a huge, every month you get to relive 0:20:13.109 --> 0:20:13.689 this joy. 0:20:14.230 --> 0:20:14.550 Right. 0:20:15.070 --> 0:20:16.970 I don't know where it is. I can't see it. 0:20:16.970 --> 0:20:19.830 It should be right about there somewhere, but I don't 0:20:19.869 --> 0:20:24.570 know where it is. I'm looking at my watch. 0:20:25.410 --> 0:20:25.889 Where is it? 0:20:26.450 --> 0:20:30.200 Right. So I've gone out there and I've looked for 0:20:30.220 --> 0:20:32.080 it and I've given up and I go home. And 0:20:32.180 --> 0:20:36.540 as I drive home, driving down the street, it's as 0:20:36.780 --> 0:20:38.540 big as as big could be. I said, how could 0:20:38.580 --> 0:20:39.460 I not see that? 0:20:39.900 --> 0:20:40.100 Right. 0:20:40.970 --> 0:20:46.040 But it wasn't ready to be revealed. So the amazing thing, 0:20:46.540 --> 0:20:50.180 so in numbers that you just read, in Leviticus 23 0:20:50.180 --> 0:20:56.600 that I just read, right, the assumption is you know 0:20:56.660 --> 0:21:00.030 when the first month is. You know when the seventh 0:21:00.090 --> 0:21:02.870 month is. You know how to determine the seventh month. 0:21:03.450 --> 0:21:07.670 It's determined by a crescent moon that nobody knows. So 0:21:07.710 --> 0:21:14.020 here's another part of that understanding. A Hebrew month is 0:21:14.020 --> 0:21:17.060 29 days or it's 30 days long. 0:21:17.900 --> 0:21:18.160 Right. 0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:22.520 It's never 31. That's a Gregorian invention. 0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:23.500 Right. 0:21:25.000 --> 0:21:30.640 But it's always 29 or 30. So modern calendar people have. 0:21:30.660 --> 0:21:32.380 So if they don't see the moon on the 30th day, 0:21:32.400 --> 0:21:34.340 they just assume the next day is the first of 0:21:34.380 --> 0:21:35.940 the month? Is that how it works? 0:21:37.220 --> 0:21:39.750 Yes. So if you don't see it on the 29th. 0:21:39.770 --> 0:21:39.990 Mm-hmm. 0:21:41.920 --> 0:21:45.170 Then the 29th comes. Then you look for it again 0:21:45.230 --> 0:21:47.850 on the 30th. You know it's going to be a 30th. Right. 0:21:49.010 --> 0:21:52.030 So it's an automatic. And then you start your counting 0:21:52.130 --> 0:21:55.760 after that. There is never a 31. Yeah. So a 0:21:55.820 --> 0:21:58.320 lot of people assume that in the old days, a 0:21:58.440 --> 0:22:02.360 month used to be 30 days every month. And they're 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:04.320 trying to connect that to the book of Enoch and 0:22:04.340 --> 0:22:11.010 the book of Jubilees. And that is also a false understanding. 0:22:11.490 --> 0:22:14.350 The Hebrew calendar was never 30 days. Well, they go 0:22:14.369 --> 0:22:18.030 to Noah. Noah's in the ark for five months. And 0:22:18.190 --> 0:22:20.800 five months times 30. And that's how they get the 0:22:20.859 --> 0:22:25.280 number there. And that's also false. Because Noah was in 0:22:25.320 --> 0:22:30.560 the ark. What's it doing outside? It's pouring rain. Or 0:22:30.619 --> 0:22:36.139 it's overcast. He can't see the moon. So it's automatically 0:22:36.140 --> 0:22:38.080 30 days each month. 0:22:38.580 --> 0:22:38.760 Yeah. 0:22:39.850 --> 0:22:42.440 But then once he comes outside the ark, he can 0:22:42.480 --> 0:22:46.000 now see the moon. And it goes back to, you know, 0:22:46.180 --> 0:22:51.040 the regular system in 2930. So, again, all these things 0:22:51.060 --> 0:22:53.590 you got to understand in just those two verses that 0:22:53.609 --> 0:23:00.530 we've just read. Right. So now, if you're anticipating the 0:23:00.590 --> 0:23:04.270 Feast of Trumpets, a feast that has also got a 0:23:04.350 --> 0:23:07.800 Hebrew idiom, which means nobody can know the day or 0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:14.250 the hour. Then the ahas or eureka moments should be 0:23:14.270 --> 0:23:16.260 going off in your head as we talk about this. 0:23:16.600 --> 0:23:18.540 Because if nobody can know the day or the hour 0:23:18.580 --> 0:23:25.840 and you're standing out there with two witnesses looking and wondering. Right. 0:23:26.320 --> 0:23:29.679 And I want to encourage everyone to go out. What 0:23:29.740 --> 0:23:35.320 is it? Go out on the Friday night of August 14th. 0:23:35.430 --> 0:23:36.100 August 14th. 0:23:36.310 --> 0:23:36.530 Yep. 0:23:37.250 --> 0:23:39.370 August 14th. Go out on the Friday night. Double check 0:23:39.390 --> 0:23:44.700 the calendar. And then look for the crescent moon. There's 0:23:44.760 --> 0:23:46.770 a number of things that are going to be made 0:23:47.010 --> 0:23:50.570 obvious here. You've got to know when to look. So 0:23:50.609 --> 0:23:51.210 when do you look? 0:23:51.910 --> 0:23:52.890 In the evening time. 0:23:53.869 --> 0:23:54.930 When in the evening time? 0:23:55.830 --> 0:23:56.230 Twilight. 0:23:57.850 --> 0:23:58.770 What part of twilight? 0:23:59.390 --> 0:24:00.470 The darker part of twilight. 0:24:01.580 --> 0:24:06.440 Well, right after sunset. So you start looking after. You've 0:24:06.460 --> 0:24:10.139 got to know when the sun sets. Now, after the 0:24:10.200 --> 0:24:12.780 sun is set, You start looking. Where do you look? 0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:16.219 To the west. 0:24:16.980 --> 0:24:17.810 To the west. 0:24:18.220 --> 0:24:18.460 Yeah. 0:24:18.570 --> 0:24:23.630 To the west. And where the sun set, where would 0:24:23.650 --> 0:24:26.510 you look? To the left of the sun or to 0:24:26.550 --> 0:24:27.250 the right of the sun? 0:24:27.430 --> 0:24:29.570 Well, if I'm facing the sun, I would be looking 0:24:29.590 --> 0:24:30.370 to the left of the sun. 0:24:31.310 --> 0:24:36.969 Yes. And that's correct. Right? So what you've just identified is, 0:24:37.070 --> 0:24:41.130 you know, the approximate time. and you know approximately where 0:24:41.150 --> 0:24:43.909 in the sky to look. Now, how high up in 0:24:43.930 --> 0:24:44.650 the sky do you look? 0:24:46.190 --> 0:24:47.410 Just over the horizon. 0:24:49.080 --> 0:24:49.580 Yes. 0:24:49.650 --> 0:24:50.260 I would say. 0:24:50.280 --> 0:24:55.240 Generally, it's approximately 2 degrees to about 10 degrees. Right. 0:24:55.280 --> 0:24:58.240 So in that range. So basically, if you put your 0:24:58.280 --> 0:25:00.159 fist out there, you see how big my fist is, 0:25:00.820 --> 0:25:03.459 and you hold it at arm's length from the sunset 0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:07.940 somewhere around that area, and maybe another fist to the left. 0:25:08.950 --> 0:25:11.169 So a fifth to the left, a fifth above, and 0:25:11.450 --> 0:25:14.270 you might be able to see it. Now you've got 0:25:14.290 --> 0:25:16.470 to wait. What time will you see it? 0:25:19.530 --> 0:25:22.369 I mean, I don't know. I guess it depends on 0:25:22.410 --> 0:25:23.449 what part of the world you're in. 0:25:24.570 --> 0:25:27.690 But the correct answer is, I don't know. I don't know, yeah. 0:25:28.470 --> 0:25:30.040 You don't know what time you're going to see it. 0:25:30.240 --> 0:25:30.940 Right, right. 0:25:31.880 --> 0:25:34.399 So you can look on your phone. There are calculations 0:25:34.420 --> 0:25:36.580 that are telling you what time the moon sets, which 0:25:36.619 --> 0:25:39.530 means when the moon drops below the horizon. So up 0:25:39.590 --> 0:25:42.670 until that time, there's a possibility of seeing it. There 0:25:42.710 --> 0:25:45.350 could be clouds. Now you won't see it. There could 0:25:45.369 --> 0:25:47.790 be a very heavy haze. Now you won't see it. 0:25:49.490 --> 0:25:52.860 All these things are there. You need two witnesses. Those 0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:56.360 two witnesses need to know where and when to look 0:25:56.380 --> 0:25:59.560 for the moon. Yeah. Why is this important? Because Paul 0:25:59.619 --> 0:26:03.020 says to the, who did he say it to? Thessalonians. 0:26:03.800 --> 0:26:07.680 You are not ignorant of the seasons, brethren. Yeah. You're 0:26:07.740 --> 0:26:10.949 not ignorant. Why aren't you ignorant? Because you know the 0:26:10.990 --> 0:26:14.550 holy days. You know when they are. You know approximately 0:26:15.190 --> 0:26:18.530 when the Feast of Trumpets will be, what, Yom Teruah. Yeah, 0:26:18.590 --> 0:26:22.060 Yom Teruah. And again, just in that name, Yom Teruah, 0:26:22.170 --> 0:26:26.360 is another clue. Right, right. It's called the Feast of Shouting. 0:26:27.220 --> 0:26:27.460 Right. 0:26:28.520 --> 0:26:33.700 And the Jews, Nehemia says, Jews do not understand what 0:26:33.740 --> 0:26:34.840 the Feast of Shouting means. 0:26:35.160 --> 0:26:38.560 Right, they've always been guessing at it. Like, they don't know. 0:26:39.940 --> 0:26:41.419 But how do you know what it means? 0:26:41.440 --> 0:26:43.590 Like, I just read from Maimonides, like, what he thought 0:26:43.630 --> 0:26:43.990 about it. 0:26:44.890 --> 0:26:45.450 Right? Yeah. 0:26:45.470 --> 0:26:49.209 So, it's like, they're just, they don't know. They're just, 0:26:49.430 --> 0:26:53.050 I mean, these are great guesses, of course. But, you know, 0:26:53.070 --> 0:26:56.889 but two, Maimonides' statement also is reminiscent of a resurrection 0:26:57.210 --> 0:27:01.700 type of event. Like, awake sleepers from your sleep. And 0:27:01.720 --> 0:27:03.700 then you go to the book of Revelation, and look. 0:27:04.530 --> 0:27:09.730 All throughout Revelation, what's the theme? Trumpets. Trumpets in every chapter. 0:27:09.760 --> 0:27:15.679 Yeah. And what, again, so what is that? Everything that 0:27:15.720 --> 0:27:20.440 you just said, 100% right. But that's, okay, that's, I 0:27:20.480 --> 0:27:22.440 don't know what that, what does it mean? How do 0:27:22.460 --> 0:27:24.619 you put that in perspective? What is it telling you? 0:27:26.619 --> 0:27:31.120 It's telling you, okay, so back up a little bit. 0:27:31.560 --> 0:27:34.650 Don't let me fall away from this remark. The whole 0:27:34.770 --> 0:27:37.949 purpose of the Feast of Trumpets is about the coming 0:27:38.290 --> 0:27:39.650 of the Messiah. 0:27:40.359 --> 0:27:40.600 Right. 0:27:41.920 --> 0:27:46.440 The Feast of Shouting. So the Feast of Shouting, it's 0:27:46.460 --> 0:27:48.780 the announcement that the King is coming. 0:27:49.480 --> 0:27:49.680 Right. 0:27:49.720 --> 0:27:52.580 So when you see the Queen of England, the coronation 0:27:52.600 --> 0:27:57.090 for the Queen of England, or even the Handel Zadok, 0:27:58.410 --> 0:28:01.869 the blowing of the trumpets to announce the coming of 0:28:01.910 --> 0:28:06.130 the King. Yes. That is the same thing. Here comes 0:28:06.150 --> 0:28:12.649 the king. Right? It's this grand procession that's announcing the 0:28:12.690 --> 0:28:15.930 king is coming. That is what the Feast of Trumpets 0:28:15.990 --> 0:28:20.680 is all about. So now, who's your king? 0:28:22.720 --> 0:28:23.260 Yeshua. 0:28:24.000 --> 0:28:25.080 Yeshua? Yehovah? 0:28:25.119 --> 0:28:26.060 My king, yeah. 0:28:26.619 --> 0:28:28.240 So when was he born? 0:28:30.140 --> 0:28:32.560 He was born 3 BC, September 9th. 0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:34.040 September 11th. 0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:36.160 I'm sorry, September 11th, yeah. 0:28:36.359 --> 0:28:40.980 September 11th, 3 BC. So, in 3 BC, if you 0:28:41.000 --> 0:28:44.640 do the... Okay, now we've jumped ahead here already. 0:28:44.740 --> 0:28:46.600 Ooh, you're about to get into something that's going to 0:28:46.640 --> 0:28:49.050 carry this for a while. 0:28:49.690 --> 0:28:53.190 Okay, so now... Can we hold that thought? We've got 0:28:53.210 --> 0:28:54.050 to finish this other thought. 0:28:54.090 --> 0:28:54.630 Yep, go ahead. 0:28:56.010 --> 0:28:59.850 If he came on the Feast of Trumpets, he's going 0:28:59.870 --> 0:29:01.370 to return on the Feast of Trumpets. 0:29:01.670 --> 0:29:02.910 Right. So. 0:29:03.780 --> 0:29:06.860 The Christians believe that Yeshua is the Messiah. They believe 0:29:06.900 --> 0:29:10.220 he's going to come back. The Jews don't believe Yeshua 0:29:10.260 --> 0:29:13.610 is the Messiah because the Christians have got him not 0:29:13.650 --> 0:29:14.430 keeping the commandments. 0:29:15.230 --> 0:29:15.410 Right. 0:29:15.590 --> 0:29:20.410 And he died. They say that a lot. Well, he died. Well, yeah, 0:29:20.670 --> 0:29:24.790 but he resurrected. So it's kind of like he's still alive. 0:29:25.690 --> 0:29:28.950 But they use that. And it's mainly because Christians take 0:29:28.990 --> 0:29:31.740 it as you don't have to keep the commandments. You 0:29:31.760 --> 0:29:32.780 don't have to keep the Sabbath. You don't have to 0:29:32.800 --> 0:29:35.800 keep the Holy Days. Because of that, he's doing away 0:29:35.820 --> 0:29:38.170 with the law, which is why they can't accept him. 0:29:38.900 --> 0:29:41.460 But when Christians realize that you do have to keep 0:29:41.500 --> 0:29:43.260 the law, you have to keep the Sabbath and the 0:29:43.320 --> 0:29:45.980 Holy Days, and because you keep them, you can understand 0:29:46.040 --> 0:29:51.830 this Holy Day that we're talking about, then the Jews 0:29:51.850 --> 0:29:55.490 who understand that Yeshua kept the Torah, those are the 0:29:55.550 --> 0:29:59.010 ones that believe in him. Right. Right? So... there's a 0:29:59.020 --> 0:30:00.720 little bit of a thing here. We don't believe in 0:30:00.740 --> 0:30:02.880 the Jesus that doesn't keep the law, but we do 0:30:02.900 --> 0:30:06.620 believe in Yeshua who kept the law. Now, so once 0:30:06.640 --> 0:30:07.300 they understand that. 0:30:07.320 --> 0:30:09.000 The Jewish Jesus. Yeah. 0:30:09.570 --> 0:30:13.950 Then the feast of shouting becomes understandable. 0:30:14.670 --> 0:30:14.870 Right. 0:30:14.890 --> 0:30:17.750 The feast of shouting. Right. He's coming on this day. 0:30:18.210 --> 0:30:20.520 That's what we're shouting. We're shouting out that warning, shouting 0:30:20.560 --> 0:30:23.960 out that message. That's kind of what this is all about. Yeah. 0:30:23.980 --> 0:30:27.840 So now, Okay, we got that one, Russell. Do you understand? 0:30:27.920 --> 0:30:29.400 Yep, yep. I think we've got it down. 0:30:30.180 --> 0:30:31.490 Now you want to bring up the one that you 0:30:31.530 --> 0:30:32.690 said is. 0:30:32.690 --> 0:30:35.250 Going to just go big here. So you're talking about 0:30:35.270 --> 0:30:36.090 when he was born, right? 0:30:36.110 --> 0:30:38.810 Are you talking about Revelation 12? 0:30:38.810 --> 0:30:41.830 Revelation 12. The first five, I think it was verse 0:30:41.930 --> 0:30:44.150 one through five. Do you want. 0:30:44.050 --> 0:30:45.840 To read them? Let's read them. Can you read them? 0:30:45.950 --> 0:30:48.380 We can read them. Okay, and there appeared a great 0:30:48.460 --> 0:30:51.690 wonder in heaven. A woman clothed with the sun... and 0:30:51.730 --> 0:30:54.410 the moon under her feet, and upon her head a 0:30:54.470 --> 0:30:57.870 crown of twelve stars. And she being with child cried, 0:30:57.990 --> 0:31:02.470 travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there 0:31:02.520 --> 0:31:06.760 appeared another wonder in heaven, and behold, a great red 0:31:06.780 --> 0:31:10.820 dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns 0:31:10.900 --> 0:31:16.200 upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part 0:31:16.700 --> 0:31:18.680 of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to 0:31:18.700 --> 0:31:22.610 the earth, and the dragon stood before the woman which 0:31:22.670 --> 0:31:25.990 was ready to be delivered for to devour her child 0:31:26.290 --> 0:31:30.050 as soon as it was born. And she brought forth 0:31:30.550 --> 0:31:33.600 a man-child who was to rule all nations with a 0:31:33.650 --> 0:31:36.620 rod of iron, and her child was caught up unto 0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:38.260 God and to his throne. 0:31:39.960 --> 0:31:43.800 So what you've just read is the birth of Yeshua. Yes. 0:31:43.880 --> 0:31:48.930 In the book of Revelation. Yes. A gentleman that I 0:31:48.970 --> 0:31:53.650 learned about in 2005 called Ernest Martin took those same 0:31:53.770 --> 0:31:59.680 five verses and put them into a program. Now, you know, 0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:02.580 he died before all the modern computer stuff was coming. 0:32:03.260 --> 0:32:08.060 But he put it into a program that regenerated a constellation. 0:32:08.260 --> 0:32:13.430 And the constellation was the constellation Virgo. And Virgo, at 0:32:13.450 --> 0:32:19.170 a certain point, is looking exactly like what Revelation 12 says. 0:32:19.590 --> 0:32:22.530 The sun is in the middle of her body. It's 0:32:22.650 --> 0:32:25.990 radiating through her entire body. There are 12 stars on 0:32:26.040 --> 0:32:30.360 her head. That's the constellation Leo. And the moon is 0:32:30.420 --> 0:32:34.540 beneath her feet. So, if you take, I'm just going 0:32:34.560 --> 0:32:37.740 to use my iPhone here. Can you see that? So, 0:32:37.780 --> 0:32:40.760 if you take the iPhone, and this is the Virgo, 0:32:41.540 --> 0:32:44.400 her head is down here, her feet are up here, 0:32:44.420 --> 0:32:49.410 and It's going down on the horizon. So if I 0:32:49.430 --> 0:32:51.650 put it down here below the bottom of my camera, 0:32:51.950 --> 0:32:55.730 you can see that the head is now disappearing. The sun, 0:32:56.030 --> 0:33:02.190 right here, is also below the horizon. Huge clue. 0:33:02.610 --> 0:33:04.120 Hits the clothes with the sun. 0:33:04.840 --> 0:33:08.380 She's clothed with the sun, all radiating through her body. Now, 0:33:08.700 --> 0:33:13.920 the next part. The moon is beneath her feet. This 0:33:14.000 --> 0:33:17.740 is so huge. The moon is beneath her feet. If 0:33:17.820 --> 0:33:21.880 the moon is in conjunction, according to the Hello Calendar, 0:33:22.960 --> 0:33:25.100 you can't see the moon when it's in conjunction with 0:33:25.140 --> 0:33:29.340 the sun. Right. But the moon beneath her feet here 0:33:30.060 --> 0:33:36.110 is a two-day-old moon. Two-day-old moon. And maybe we can 0:33:36.250 --> 0:33:38.090 throw that picture in here so people can see what 0:33:38.110 --> 0:33:42.270 we're talking about. But it's a two-day-old moon, which means 0:33:42.630 --> 0:33:47.030 it's the first crescent moon. the moon beneath their feet, 0:33:47.090 --> 0:33:51.670 a first crescent moon of this constellation Virgo, which appears 0:33:51.810 --> 0:33:56.450 in this position in the fall. What position was that? 0:33:57.210 --> 0:34:01.550 That happened to be on September 11, 3 BC. 0:34:03.010 --> 0:34:04.950 And it also happened to be the Feast of Trumpets 0:34:04.990 --> 0:34:06.100 that day, that year. 0:34:06.170 --> 0:34:10.260 It was the Feast of Trumpets. So that, you can 0:34:10.280 --> 0:34:16.300 take any astronomy program and go back to that exact moment, 0:34:16.380 --> 0:34:19.160 and you'll see that exact constellation laid out like that. 0:34:19.540 --> 0:34:21.339 And the picture that we're going to put up here 0:34:21.920 --> 0:34:24.880 is that same picture that I did on my astronomy 0:34:24.920 --> 0:34:29.410 program to duplicate this. It's an amazing understanding. And when 0:34:29.450 --> 0:34:32.729 you understand that Revelation 12 is talking about a crescent moon, 0:34:32.830 --> 0:34:36.270 not a conjunction moon, a crescent moon, and it's talking 0:34:36.290 --> 0:34:38.390 about the Feast of Trumpets, the first day of the 0:34:38.410 --> 0:34:45.219 seventh month, all these objections, all these arguments, to stay 0:34:45.260 --> 0:34:50.750 with the little calendar are dispersed. It's, wow. Now you 0:34:50.790 --> 0:34:54.790 know what the meaning of this day is. Right. And 0:34:54.910 --> 0:34:58.190 Revelation 12 is talking about the day he was born. 0:34:59.870 --> 0:35:03.920 But Rambam is talking about the day he's coming back on, 0:35:05.340 --> 0:35:08.219 which is again, he first, first time he came as 0:35:08.260 --> 0:35:14.440 a lamb. Second time he's coming as a judge. Wake up. 0:35:14.900 --> 0:35:16.220 Wake up, you sleeping fool. 0:35:17.380 --> 0:35:20.020 And he also tells us this in Matthew 24, like 0:35:20.239 --> 0:35:22.900 right after he's talking about nobody knows the day or 0:35:22.920 --> 0:35:25.799 the hour, he's telling you, and he's going to send 0:35:25.840 --> 0:35:28.640 his angels with a great sound of a trumpet. And 0:35:28.660 --> 0:35:31.259 then he's going to say, at the last trumpet, you 0:35:31.300 --> 0:35:33.360 shall see the sign of the Son of Man coming 0:35:33.400 --> 0:35:33.920 in the clouds. 0:35:34.880 --> 0:35:35.180 Yes. 0:35:36.120 --> 0:35:39.620 So he's telling you when it's going to happen right 0:35:39.700 --> 0:35:41.339 after he's saying no man knows. 0:35:42.790 --> 0:35:46.190 But at the same time, In Matthew, he's talking about 0:35:46.230 --> 0:35:48.430 the angels coming and they're coming first. And what's the 0:35:48.469 --> 0:35:50.740 first thing they're going to do? The tares. They're going 0:35:50.760 --> 0:35:53.460 to gather the tares and throw them into the fire. 0:35:54.719 --> 0:35:57.380 So you don't want to be amongst the tares. You 0:35:57.420 --> 0:36:00.299 want to be amongst those who are obeying God to 0:36:00.340 --> 0:36:04.940 be called his elect, to be brought into and protected 0:36:05.100 --> 0:36:08.540 from the fire that these others are going to go into. 0:36:09.239 --> 0:36:09.719 Right. 0:36:10.239 --> 0:36:15.250 So this one holy day has so much meaning. Now, 0:36:15.530 --> 0:36:19.719 that's the day and hour nobody knows. We haven't even 0:36:19.780 --> 0:36:23.399 touched about the other parts of it. So, during those 0:36:23.440 --> 0:36:29.339 ten days of awe, there's, we come to the Day 0:36:29.360 --> 0:36:33.220 of Atonement, there's two goats presented. One goat represents Jehovah, 0:36:33.239 --> 0:36:35.399 the other goat represents Azazel. We're going to talk about 0:36:35.420 --> 0:36:38.319 that more next time. But they're both presented at the 0:36:38.390 --> 0:36:42.330 same time. So, if the Feast of Trumpets represents the 0:36:42.370 --> 0:36:46.050 time the Messiah is coming, What else does that also represent? 0:36:47.260 --> 0:36:49.720 We just talked about it in our last week's newsletter. 0:36:50.560 --> 0:36:53.720 And we talked about this on our last podcast. The Mahdi. 0:36:55.060 --> 0:36:56.739 The Mahdi is also going to show up at the 0:36:56.780 --> 0:37:01.140 same time, which is the Antichrist. And that's the time 0:37:01.160 --> 0:37:04.390 we're living in now when everyone's expecting or knows that 0:37:04.410 --> 0:37:07.030 we're at the end of the age. They're expecting the Messiah. 0:37:07.050 --> 0:37:10.290 They're all looking for the rapture or Jesus. But nobody's 0:37:10.330 --> 0:37:14.410 looking at the Mahdi. Nobody's looking at the Elijah. who's 0:37:14.450 --> 0:37:19.330 going to restore all these things in these last days. 0:37:20.650 --> 0:37:26.690 All these things are happening now. Now, the other aspect is, 0:37:27.930 --> 0:37:31.230 during the Feast of Trumpets, there's a ceremony that was 0:37:31.290 --> 0:37:35.250 done at the temple all the time. And we just 0:37:35.290 --> 0:37:37.840 made a video about it, and we put that out there. 0:37:37.950 --> 0:37:40.110 We made a song about it, put it with the video, 0:37:40.469 --> 0:37:44.160 you know, trying to get you to understand. Right. Those 0:37:44.219 --> 0:37:47.980 two witnesses, and you can read this at the Temple Institute, 0:37:48.460 --> 0:37:52.230 those two witnesses would have to go to the temple. Now, 0:37:52.290 --> 0:37:56.250 they could be family members or they could be distant 0:37:57.330 --> 0:38:00.490 from different places, but you had to go to the temple. 0:38:00.570 --> 0:38:03.310 If you were a witness to the sighting of the moon, 0:38:04.310 --> 0:38:06.390 you'd have to go to the temple. And they would 0:38:06.410 --> 0:38:09.200 give a big meal for those who showed up and 0:38:10.360 --> 0:38:14.660 listen to your testimony. And then the the captain or 0:38:14.719 --> 0:38:18.660 the high priest, but the captain of the testimony would 0:38:18.780 --> 0:38:23.839 listen to each person. And we have a teaching in 0:38:23.860 --> 0:38:28.700 the Mishnah from Gamaliel who used to hold charts up 0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:31.540 on the wall and get you to point to which 0:38:31.719 --> 0:38:35.720 moon you saw. And if you pointed to the right one, 0:38:36.910 --> 0:38:39.109 your testimony was... If you pointed to the wrong one, 0:38:39.210 --> 0:38:40.669 your testimony was disqualified. 0:38:41.310 --> 0:38:41.529 Right. 0:38:42.150 --> 0:38:42.810 Right? So. 0:38:43.410 --> 0:38:46.570 Sometimes the moon is like a horn over top of 0:38:46.590 --> 0:38:50.120 the sun. Other times it's like a horn facing diagonally 0:38:50.160 --> 0:38:53.359 away from the sun. So you had to understand these things. 0:38:54.880 --> 0:38:59.960 But once that testimony from two witnesses was accepted, then 0:39:00.300 --> 0:39:03.570 the captain or the high priest would do something very unique. 0:39:04.989 --> 0:39:09.370 He would announce, the day is hallowed. The day is hallowed. 0:39:09.890 --> 0:39:16.100 Until he said those words, Nobody knew. Are we supposed 0:39:16.120 --> 0:39:18.419 to go back to work? Is this a holy day? 0:39:19.160 --> 0:39:23.010 What do we do here? I don't know what to do. 0:39:23.989 --> 0:39:26.670 Our robes are white. We're ready. We're prepared. We knew 0:39:26.730 --> 0:39:29.910 the season was coming. But what do we do now? 0:39:29.980 --> 0:39:34.299 we're waiting. And then the doors open. And the high 0:39:34.360 --> 0:39:37.400 priest comes out. And he says the day is hallowed. 0:39:37.560 --> 0:39:40.320 And he blows the ram's horn. And two other priests 0:39:40.340 --> 0:39:44.590 beside him blow the silver trumpets. And the ram's horn 0:39:44.870 --> 0:39:48.650 has got to last longer than the silver trumpets. I 0:39:48.690 --> 0:39:52.200 don't know what the reason is. And then everyone starts 0:39:52.360 --> 0:39:55.300 saying the day is hallowed right there around the temple. 0:39:55.340 --> 0:39:57.640 The day is hallowed. The day is hallowed. The shouting 0:39:57.680 --> 0:40:00.239 starts to go up and then people jump on their 0:40:00.300 --> 0:40:03.720 horses and the messengers are sent from town to town. 0:40:05.140 --> 0:40:07.620 It's like Paul Revere going from town to town. The 0:40:07.640 --> 0:40:09.810 British are coming. The British are coming. No, he's saying 0:40:10.170 --> 0:40:12.690 the day is hallowed. The day is hallowed. And they're 0:40:12.730 --> 0:40:17.330 going from town to town. But the moon is possibly 0:40:17.370 --> 0:40:21.370 by the time the witnesses get there and the moon 0:40:21.430 --> 0:40:25.650 is set, it's now dark. So across from the temple 0:40:26.510 --> 0:40:28.950 is what we call the Mount of Olives. And on 0:40:28.989 --> 0:40:30.989 top of the Mount of Olives, they would light a 0:40:31.570 --> 0:40:36.220 huge bonfire. And the bonfire would go from mountain to 0:40:36.300 --> 0:40:40.040 mountain to mountain to let everyone know that the moon 0:40:40.080 --> 0:40:43.580 has been seen. And in a matter of a couple hours, 0:40:44.300 --> 0:40:49.620 from Jerusalem all the way to Babylon... they would have 0:40:49.660 --> 0:40:53.110 the mountains lit up and they would know. That's how 0:40:53.200 --> 0:40:57.230 fast this would take place. Right. But if you're using 0:40:57.290 --> 0:41:01.170 a calculated method, why would you need to light bonfires? 0:41:01.190 --> 0:41:02.790 You wouldn't. 0:41:02.810 --> 0:41:03.760 Why would you need to send out. 0:41:03.770 --> 0:41:04.450 Everybody would just know. 0:41:05.810 --> 0:41:07.930 That's right. Why would you need to send out horsemen 0:41:07.989 --> 0:41:10.660 announcing it? Why would you need to make an announcement? 0:41:11.800 --> 0:41:14.620 Why would you need to bother blowing the shofars? We 0:41:14.640 --> 0:41:17.920 just know. We don't need to... We just automatically know. Right. 0:41:18.660 --> 0:41:25.040 But because nobody knew, because nobody knew that announcement had 0:41:25.080 --> 0:41:29.600 to be done. And now, as soon as that announcement 0:41:29.640 --> 0:41:32.259 is done, and that announcement can take place as late 0:41:32.300 --> 0:41:36.680 as the next day at noon. Because depending on if 0:41:36.700 --> 0:41:40.819 the witnesses come from a faraway place. So maybe it's 0:41:40.880 --> 0:41:44.819 overcast in Jerusalem, but up in Galilee, it's not. Or 0:41:44.880 --> 0:41:47.180 down in the Negev, it's not. And they have to 0:41:47.239 --> 0:41:49.860 travel up to Jerusalem. So there would still be an 0:41:49.950 --> 0:41:55.489 anticipation all the next day. So nobody knows the day 0:41:55.510 --> 0:41:59.870 or the hour. This is why. Now, here's another teaching. 0:42:00.670 --> 0:42:06.880 Yeshua talks about this all the time. Be ready. Because 0:42:06.910 --> 0:42:10.680 you don't know. Be ready. Don't get caught asleep. 0:42:11.780 --> 0:42:12.000 Right. 0:42:12.060 --> 0:42:15.230 What does that mean? And then he says in Revelation 0:42:15.250 --> 0:42:18.330 that your shame be exposed or that your nakedness be exposed. 0:42:18.350 --> 0:42:22.009 He's talking to the seven churches. What is he talking about? So, 0:42:24.010 --> 0:42:27.810 you know, another great aspect of this understanding. 0:42:27.969 --> 0:42:28.290 It is. 0:42:28.750 --> 0:42:31.890 You know, too, and you just said something a minute 0:42:31.930 --> 0:42:35.779 ago where you said they were waiting in anticipation. And 0:42:35.800 --> 0:42:39.460 that's exactly what Yeshua is telling us to do. Like, 0:42:39.660 --> 0:42:42.089 don't go to sleep. Wait in anticipation. Like you think 0:42:42.130 --> 0:42:45.719 about when you have something in your heart that is 0:42:45.840 --> 0:42:50.160 highly anticipated, you can't sleep. You can't stop thinking about it. 0:42:50.160 --> 0:42:54.760 You're excited. You're like, ah, I'm anticipating this great thing. 0:42:55.140 --> 0:42:57.839 And so you're awake and you're tossing and turning even 0:42:57.880 --> 0:42:58.980 if you do try to lay down. 0:42:59.000 --> 0:43:02.890 I don't want to use this as an example, but 0:43:03.130 --> 0:43:04.910 a lot of people that are listening may be able 0:43:04.930 --> 0:43:07.830 to identify with it. Christmas Eve. 0:43:08.530 --> 0:43:09.350 Oh, yeah, there you go. 0:43:10.190 --> 0:43:10.350 Right? 0:43:10.850 --> 0:43:12.090 On Christmas Eve, you're anticipating. 0:43:12.110 --> 0:43:12.540 When you were a kid. 0:43:12.550 --> 0:43:14.130 You don't want to go to sleep. You're a kid. 0:43:14.550 --> 0:43:17.510 You don't want to go to sleep. You're so excited. 0:43:17.969 --> 0:43:22.830 That's what this day is tenfold, a hundredfold better. Right. 0:43:23.650 --> 0:43:26.529 Because you really don't know if this, and you could 0:43:26.570 --> 0:43:28.810 wake up to, was it last night? Did they find it? 0:43:29.070 --> 0:43:31.490 You don't know. Now you get to do it all 0:43:31.530 --> 0:43:36.860 again the next night if you didn't. So, during the night, 0:43:38.400 --> 0:43:42.620 the offerings that were done, done that afternoon, that fire 0:43:42.680 --> 0:43:49.940 has to be continually going. Around Jerusalem, there are guards 0:43:50.020 --> 0:43:52.300 on the inside and on the outside of the gates. 0:43:53.540 --> 0:43:56.839 There's one particular gate that only the high priest has 0:43:56.900 --> 0:43:59.640 a key for. And he can come in and out. 0:44:00.780 --> 0:44:04.950 And you, as a priest, would be on duty on 0:44:04.969 --> 0:44:10.470 the outside, guarding the gate throughout the night. Oh. Nobody's 0:44:10.550 --> 0:44:14.510 coming again, right? I've done this for five years. Nobody's 0:44:14.570 --> 0:44:16.200 ever come to this gate in the middle of the night. 0:44:19.760 --> 0:44:22.520 And you just, okay, you've got your chores to do 0:44:22.560 --> 0:44:24.860 during the day and you're trying to, you know, pushing 0:44:24.940 --> 0:44:27.279 the envelope, trying to do all these things. And now 0:44:27.320 --> 0:44:32.170 you're on duty and I'm tired. You also got to 0:44:32.190 --> 0:44:34.370 keep the fire going. You also got to get the 0:44:34.610 --> 0:44:36.549 wood ready for the next day. You got to get 0:44:36.590 --> 0:44:39.359 the all the ingredients. You've got to do all these 0:44:39.400 --> 0:44:45.299 different jobs in the temple throughout the night. And in 0:44:45.340 --> 0:44:51.950 comes this guy. He's called the night watchman. If you're 0:44:51.989 --> 0:44:55.890 doing your duty, you might see him. And you don't 0:44:55.910 --> 0:44:57.810 think nothing of it because he comes by every once 0:44:57.870 --> 0:45:02.969 in a while. But if you're asleep, here's the big 0:45:03.030 --> 0:45:07.470 deal about it. He would set your clothes on fire 0:45:09.550 --> 0:45:12.850 And you'd be asleep. You wouldn't know it. And all 0:45:12.910 --> 0:45:14.549 of a sudden your legs are getting hot or your 0:45:14.690 --> 0:45:17.050 arms are getting hot and your clothes are on fire. 0:45:17.360 --> 0:45:19.799 You wake up and you're trying to brush it off 0:45:19.820 --> 0:45:21.800 and now you've got to rip your clothes off because 0:45:22.080 --> 0:45:24.260 the priestly robes were made out of linen. 0:45:24.900 --> 0:45:26.540 Right. 0:45:27.400 --> 0:45:30.919 And they used the priestly clothes for wicks in all 0:45:31.480 --> 0:45:37.190 the oil lamps. So you're ripping off your clothes and 0:45:38.800 --> 0:45:40.840 Where's your other clothes? 0:45:41.580 --> 0:45:41.840 Right. 0:45:42.719 --> 0:45:45.779 They're either at home, because you can't come to the 0:45:45.800 --> 0:45:49.530 temple with your dirty clothes. So to get your clothes 0:45:49.620 --> 0:45:51.710 to put back on, you have to run back home, 0:45:51.810 --> 0:45:57.669 and you run home naked. Right. Your butt's exposed. Your 0:45:57.730 --> 0:46:01.830 shame is exposed. And Yeshua says, buy your clothes here. 0:46:01.910 --> 0:46:07.640 Refine with me. Don't have your nakedness exposed or your 0:46:07.700 --> 0:46:12.720 shame exposed. Revelation 16, I want to say 16.9, but 0:46:12.860 --> 0:46:15.140 it's not 16.9. 0:46:15.140 --> 0:46:19.160 It's 16.15. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is 0:46:19.239 --> 0:46:22.910 he that watcheth and keepeth his garments, lest he walk 0:46:23.180 --> 0:46:24.969 naked and they see his shame. 0:46:24.989 --> 0:46:32.630 What he's talking about in Revelation 16.15 is exactly this day, 0:46:33.210 --> 0:46:35.450 the Feast of Trumpets, when the thief and the knight 0:46:35.530 --> 0:46:38.759 shows up. He comes at a day and hour and 0:46:38.860 --> 0:46:43.560 no one knows. Who is that? That's our Messiah. Yeah. 0:46:44.239 --> 0:46:44.459 Right. 0:46:44.560 --> 0:46:46.860 And he says it. I don't know. He says it 0:46:46.880 --> 0:46:49.120 throughout the New Testament. I come as a thief in 0:46:49.160 --> 0:46:49.510 the night. 0:46:49.950 --> 0:46:50.230 Right. 0:46:50.989 --> 0:46:51.149 Right. 0:46:51.210 --> 0:46:54.870 If you don't understand these holy days, if you're not 0:46:54.950 --> 0:46:58.450 keeping these holy days, he's going to catch you asleep 0:46:59.250 --> 0:47:04.380 when he's coming. Are you watching? Are you watching at 0:47:04.410 --> 0:47:06.379 the right time? Are you looking in the right place? 0:47:06.920 --> 0:47:11.360 Are you focused on the right thing at the proper season? Right. 0:47:12.120 --> 0:47:14.589 Or are you just out there partying and in the 0:47:14.630 --> 0:47:18.989 summer and doing your thing? And I don't I don't 0:47:19.030 --> 0:47:19.890 care about that stuff. 0:47:20.530 --> 0:47:20.770 Yeah. 0:47:21.450 --> 0:47:24.400 You're sleeping. You're sleeping at your post. 0:47:24.900 --> 0:47:26.620 And that's the thing is it's like seemingly, you know, 0:47:26.660 --> 0:47:28.700 you read that and you're like, well, this is kind 0:47:28.719 --> 0:47:29.379 of a cruel thing. 0:47:29.440 --> 0:47:29.620 Right. 0:47:29.660 --> 0:47:32.900 To set somebody on fire. just for sleeping at their post. 0:47:32.960 --> 0:47:35.400 But you have to realize, like, if you're a soldier 0:47:35.460 --> 0:47:37.200 in an army and you're asleep at the post, right, 0:47:37.980 --> 0:47:43.600 then the enemy can overtake you. The whole city gets murdered. And, yeah, 0:47:43.640 --> 0:47:46.240 so sleeping at your post is a pretty big deal, 0:47:46.360 --> 0:47:47.840 especially Yehovah's post. 0:47:48.700 --> 0:47:52.780 Yeah. So look at the mess of the world right now. 0:47:53.730 --> 0:47:57.669 How many people are teaching them proper Torah? How many 0:47:57.730 --> 0:48:01.320 people are teaching them about the Holy Days? Those people 0:48:01.340 --> 0:48:03.040 that were supposed to be doing it fell asleep at 0:48:03.060 --> 0:48:09.480 their posts over the past 2,000 years. And that understanding 0:48:09.700 --> 0:48:14.580 was forgotten and lost. We've been revived in the last, 0:48:15.320 --> 0:48:22.580 I don't know, 30, 40 years to this understanding. Elijah 0:48:22.600 --> 0:48:24.859 is going to restore all things, so these understandings have 0:48:24.900 --> 0:48:28.900 to be restored before he comes back. Right. you need 0:48:28.960 --> 0:48:31.529 to be keeping these things. You need to restore it 0:48:31.680 --> 0:48:34.969 in your own personal life so that you will be 0:48:35.130 --> 0:48:37.590 found awake and ready. 0:48:37.610 --> 0:48:41.650 I mean, you just think about it. I'm just thinking 0:48:41.690 --> 0:48:45.550 about this for a second because it's like 2,000 years 0:48:46.110 --> 0:48:53.239 have gone by just about since Yeshua's coming. And the 0:48:53.260 --> 0:48:58.009 thing about it is it's like only, say, 1970s. is 0:48:58.050 --> 0:49:02.009 when this messianic boom happens, right? And then people start 0:49:02.050 --> 0:49:04.469 to realize, wait a minute, Jesus was a Jew, and 0:49:04.510 --> 0:49:08.290 people start keeping the commandments, right? And that's just maybe 0:49:08.850 --> 0:49:11.930 just a few decades after the establishment of the state 0:49:11.950 --> 0:49:12.610 of Israel. 0:49:13.090 --> 0:49:14.930 I would not put it in the 70s. I would 0:49:14.950 --> 0:49:19.350 put it more in the late 80s and the 90s 0:49:19.530 --> 0:49:21.250 and then for sure in the 2000s. 0:49:21.850 --> 0:49:24.530 Yeah, I mean, but there's just been this boom, right, 0:49:24.860 --> 0:49:29.319 of every decade, just about, you've got more and more 0:49:29.380 --> 0:49:33.480 people that are coming to this knowledge. It's definitely coming, 0:49:33.600 --> 0:49:35.980 starting to make more sense about what Peter was talking 0:49:36.020 --> 0:49:37.880 about whenever he was standing in front of the temple, 0:49:38.420 --> 0:49:41.399 when he said that that that Yeshua wouldn't return again 0:49:41.460 --> 0:49:44.960 until the restitution of all things. And we're starting to 0:49:45.020 --> 0:49:49.420 see a lot of that restitution happening. We're seeing it 0:49:49.440 --> 0:49:52.149 with the calendar. More people are keeping Shabbat. More people 0:49:52.170 --> 0:49:55.410 are more interested in the holy days. There is this phenomenon, 0:49:55.450 --> 0:49:58.370 and I would argue and say that it's a miraculous phenomenon, 0:49:58.390 --> 0:50:00.810 because we're seeing so much of it now, it's almost 0:50:00.870 --> 0:50:04.180 like we're desensitized to the fact that this is miraculous. 0:50:04.590 --> 0:50:09.979 This is a miraculous event that's happening. it's got Messiah 0:50:10.360 --> 0:50:12.560 the return of Messiah written all over it. 0:50:14.700 --> 0:50:17.460 You are a product of this I'm a product of 0:50:17.520 --> 0:50:21.180 this I wasn't looking to do this stuff but when 0:50:21.239 --> 0:50:24.770 I started to investigate it I couldn't deny it and 0:50:25.489 --> 0:50:28.350 now the scripture you're saying that you're talking about right 0:50:28.390 --> 0:50:32.830 now yes until the restitution of all things until Elijah 0:50:32.870 --> 0:50:37.330 has restored these things until you who are listening are 0:50:37.410 --> 0:50:40.950 keeping these things. If you think you got another 10 years, 0:50:43.640 --> 0:50:45.819 that's the thing about the Jubilee Cycles that shows us 0:50:46.080 --> 0:50:50.920 you don't. You need to start this yesterday, not today. 0:50:50.940 --> 0:50:55.380 You need to start this yesterday, which means if this 0:50:55.480 --> 0:50:59.739 is brand new to you now, then start now. Oh, 0:51:00.960 --> 0:51:03.940 I'm gonna get fired if I take, well, it's a Saturday. 0:51:04.660 --> 0:51:06.500 You're not supposed to work on Saturday anyway. This year, 0:51:06.520 --> 0:51:08.760 it happens to be a Saturday. This year, the Fall 0:51:08.800 --> 0:51:12.550 Holy Days are real easy to do. They're all on Saturday, 0:51:12.950 --> 0:51:14.810 except for the Day of Atonement, which is going to 0:51:14.830 --> 0:51:19.350 be on a Monday. Just take the time off. Take 0:51:19.390 --> 0:51:24.130 the time off and make that a special day that 0:51:24.150 --> 0:51:27.750 you're going to start to obey God. You don't fully 0:51:27.770 --> 0:51:31.590 understand this. This is really weird, but we've answered a 0:51:31.610 --> 0:51:34.009 lot of these questions, how, you know, Nobody knows the 0:51:34.030 --> 0:51:35.900 day or the hour, the thief in the night, how 0:51:35.920 --> 0:51:39.219 they're all connected to the Feast of Trumpets. The feast 0:51:39.260 --> 0:51:42.120 that nobody knows when it's going to take place. And 0:51:42.840 --> 0:51:46.520 I want to encourage you not to be discouraged because 0:51:46.560 --> 0:51:51.650 you never knew, but to now, today, start to obey 0:51:53.270 --> 0:51:58.750 and start to learn. Ask Jehovah, ask God, ask Him, 0:51:58.950 --> 0:52:03.570 help you to understand these things. Now, I'm going to 0:52:03.590 --> 0:52:06.089 do a little self-plug. We have a book called It's 0:52:06.130 --> 0:52:07.310 a Riddle, Not a Command. 0:52:07.850 --> 0:52:08.310 Great book. 0:52:09.110 --> 0:52:11.739 It's a great book. It was written so that my mother, 0:52:11.989 --> 0:52:16.070 who did not understand these things, could understand. Get it. 0:52:16.700 --> 0:52:20.279 Read it. Go to sightedmoon.com and order it. You can 0:52:20.300 --> 0:52:23.140 get it at Amazon. Order it. But do that today. 0:52:23.340 --> 0:52:25.700 You can have that in four days' time if you're 0:52:25.739 --> 0:52:29.759 in the United States. It'll be there almost instantly. Get it. 0:52:30.000 --> 0:52:33.120 Read it. And now get ready for the Feast of Trumpets. 0:52:33.760 --> 0:52:38.299 And then, because that's a time of judgment. It's the 0:52:38.340 --> 0:52:42.200 beginning of the Ten Days of Awe. And from that time, 0:52:42.420 --> 0:52:44.800 ten days later, leads you to the Day of Atonement. 0:52:45.320 --> 0:52:48.259 We're going to talk about Atonement next week. But get 0:52:48.380 --> 0:52:55.910 ready for that time of judgment. Like Rambam said, Shub, Teshuvah, return. Return. Return. Teshuvah. 0:52:56.650 --> 0:53:02.780 Put on righteousness. Return to the truth. Return. Maybe your church, 0:53:02.960 --> 0:53:05.420 maybe your group doesn't believe in this stuff. Maybe they 0:53:05.440 --> 0:53:08.000 think that they're all done away with. But that's not 0:53:08.060 --> 0:53:13.610 what he says. He says it's coming. Everything that he 0:53:13.640 --> 0:53:19.710 did for Passover, every little detail, is now going to 0:53:19.730 --> 0:53:23.069 be relived in every little detail in understanding the Feast 0:53:23.130 --> 0:53:27.350 of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement. That's the big point. 0:53:27.530 --> 0:53:32.380 That's the point in God's timing his moedim, his seasons 0:53:32.420 --> 0:53:36.560 that we're coming into, not just this year, but prophetically 0:53:36.860 --> 0:53:41.100 at the end of this sixth millennial day. It behooves 0:53:41.120 --> 0:53:46.489 you to understand it. But to understand it, you actually 0:53:46.530 --> 0:53:47.170 have to do it. 0:53:48.150 --> 0:53:48.410 Right. 0:53:49.370 --> 0:53:51.410 Go look for the crescent moon on the Friday night. 0:53:53.810 --> 0:53:59.549 Go and look. Then start to keep the holy days. 0:53:59.730 --> 0:54:03.680 Do it with your family. Make a challenge of this. 0:54:04.040 --> 0:54:06.500 It's fun. It's a blast. 0:54:06.580 --> 0:54:09.500 Who's going to be the first one to sight the moon? 0:54:10.960 --> 0:54:12.060 I will. I will. 0:54:12.880 --> 0:54:15.320 Right. Everybody goes looking for it. 0:54:16.050 --> 0:54:19.450 Put a $ 10 reward. Whoever sights the moon first gets 0:54:19.489 --> 0:54:23.430 the $ 10. Take your family out and do it. And 0:54:23.590 --> 0:54:25.670 see who can find it. 0:54:25.670 --> 0:54:30.780 It'll be fun. These things, once you start to connect 0:54:31.000 --> 0:54:33.549 all of the dots from Leviticus 23, Numbers 29, and 0:54:33.700 --> 0:54:37.109 so on and so forth, it makes you realize that 0:54:37.150 --> 0:54:39.450 there's not really a partition between the New and the 0:54:39.550 --> 0:54:44.410 Old Testament. But there's just this one continuous book. There's 0:54:44.450 --> 0:54:49.920 just one continuous book. And I think that alone is 0:54:49.980 --> 0:54:51.580 a stumbling block to a lot of people. Well, I'm 0:54:51.600 --> 0:54:54.160 in the New Testament now. It's one book. 0:54:54.860 --> 0:54:59.460 The New Testament was written by Jews. They were all Jews. 0:54:59.940 --> 0:55:02.540 And they're talking about the Feast of Trumpets all. 0:55:02.440 --> 0:55:05.799 Throughout the New Testament. And they kept the Torah. Yeah. Right? 0:55:06.520 --> 0:55:08.819 They just didn't wake up one day and they're not 0:55:08.950 --> 0:55:12.549 Jews anymore. They all kept the Torah. We just read 0:55:12.590 --> 0:55:19.030 Revelation 16, 15. It's talking about this ancient holiday. 0:55:19.550 --> 0:55:22.489 Right. Well, and even Paul stated that he said, don't 0:55:22.530 --> 0:55:25.130 let anybody judge you for your Sabbaths and your new moons. 0:55:25.910 --> 0:55:30.890 And You know, that statement would not have made any 0:55:31.110 --> 0:55:34.189 sense if he's speaking to people that aren't keeping those things. 0:55:34.210 --> 0:55:35.609 That's right. 0:55:36.050 --> 0:55:37.160 It's a purplish comment. 0:55:37.969 --> 0:55:41.200 Those people who keep those holidays, who keep those new moons, 0:55:41.219 --> 0:55:43.560 who keep those holy days, those are the people that 0:55:43.580 --> 0:55:46.900 should be judging you because they have an understanding of 0:55:46.960 --> 0:55:47.540 those things. 0:55:47.980 --> 0:55:48.200 Right. 0:55:48.440 --> 0:55:52.069 So, yeah. So all throughout the New Testament, these holy 0:55:52.110 --> 0:55:56.719 days keep coming up. They're there. The Hebrewisms, the expressions 0:55:56.940 --> 0:56:01.469 that they, you know, we want to be forgiving your sins. Well, 0:56:01.510 --> 0:56:03.509 if you do away with the Day of Atonement, then 0:56:03.930 --> 0:56:08.950 what's the point? You don't understand. So, we're talking about 0:56:08.969 --> 0:56:14.140 this very special day coming up on August 15th, 2026, 0:56:14.140 --> 0:56:18.500 in case you're listening to this down the road. That's 0:56:18.540 --> 0:56:21.799 a special day. Go and keep it. You have an 0:56:21.860 --> 0:56:25.230 opportunity now to plan for it get ready for it 0:56:25.530 --> 0:56:29.210 keep it again get our book it's a riddle not 0:56:29.250 --> 0:56:32.739 a command so that you can understand all the little 0:56:33.010 --> 0:56:37.820 intricacies that we've just touched on here today yeah it 0:56:37.940 --> 0:56:42.080 really just touched on it really is a great book. 0:56:42.520 --> 0:56:45.640 It is it really is and so all right well 0:56:45.800 --> 0:56:48.660 i think we're exceeding a little bit an over an 0:56:48.680 --> 0:56:51.719 hour now so we get let's uh we'll go ahead 0:56:51.780 --> 0:56:54.819 and uh And stop it there. And I think you 0:56:54.840 --> 0:56:56.399 prayed on the last one, so I'm going to pray 0:56:56.500 --> 0:57:02.000 on today's episode. Lord, Father God, we thank you for 0:57:02.140 --> 0:57:06.320 your truth. We thank you for your word, for your understanding. 0:57:06.590 --> 0:57:09.890 You said, blessed is he that watcheth. God, make watchers 0:57:09.989 --> 0:57:12.470 out of us, out of each and every one of us. 0:57:12.630 --> 0:57:14.750 Make watchers out of all of the people that are 0:57:14.790 --> 0:57:18.850 listening to this podcast, either on whatever medium they're listening 0:57:18.870 --> 0:57:22.370 to it on, whatever platform, whether it's YouTube, whether it's Spotify. 0:57:22.920 --> 0:57:25.700 Wherever it is, God, make watchmen out of them. Don't 0:57:25.720 --> 0:57:28.210 let them fall asleep. Don't let us fall asleep at 0:57:28.250 --> 0:57:28.790 our post. 0:57:30.330 --> 0:57:30.970 Lord, keep us. 0:57:31.550 --> 0:57:36.150 Keep us watching. Keep us. Let the fire remain lit 0:57:37.250 --> 0:57:42.320 in us. We thank you for your feast days. We 0:57:42.360 --> 0:57:44.780 thank you for what's coming up. We thank you for 0:57:45.680 --> 0:57:50.900 allowing us to sight the new moon with anticipation. And 0:57:50.980 --> 0:57:57.140 we're looking towards your return, Lord Jesus, Lord Yeshua, with anticipation. 0:57:58.260 --> 0:58:00.780 We're expecting it, that it could happen at any moment, 0:58:00.820 --> 0:58:03.280 that it could really happen at any time. We don't know. 0:58:04.540 --> 0:58:07.990 But let us continually live with that anticipation and let 0:58:08.010 --> 0:58:10.530 it not die down or let us not weary of 0:58:10.610 --> 0:58:14.370 good doing. Thank you, Father, for Joe. Thank you, Lord, 0:58:14.410 --> 0:58:17.150 for his ministry. Thank you, God, for Sighted Moon, for 0:58:17.330 --> 0:58:20.600 all of the people that are supporting this work. Thank you, Lord, 0:58:20.640 --> 0:58:22.760 and I pray that you bless them all in their 0:58:22.800 --> 0:58:26.260 time of need and bless the ones that are just 0:58:26.300 --> 0:58:31.630 now stumbling upon us. Lord, help them. Help them. Help 0:58:31.670 --> 0:58:35.110 all of us with understanding and wisdom. We thank you, Father. 0:58:35.630 --> 0:58:36.810 Glorify your holy name. 0:58:37.630 --> 0:58:41.850 Amen. Amen. Got time for a quick little story? Yeah, 0:58:41.870 --> 0:58:44.850 go ahead. Back in 2005, when I just started to 0:58:44.870 --> 0:58:47.070 understand all this stuff and being blown away, I was 0:58:47.090 --> 0:58:50.250 trying to tell everybody at my church all these little details, 0:58:50.990 --> 0:58:54.540 and they were about to kick me out. I wouldn't 0:58:54.560 --> 0:58:59.040 stop talking about it. So, I didn't know. The website 0:58:59.060 --> 0:59:01.060 was a brand new thing in 2005, so I said, 0:59:01.620 --> 0:59:05.360 can somebody help me make a website? And I wanted 0:59:05.400 --> 0:59:06.720 to call it the Berean Truth. 0:59:07.410 --> 0:59:07.650 Yeah. 0:59:07.670 --> 0:59:08.490 Berean Truth, right? 0:59:08.510 --> 0:59:08.750 Yeah. 0:59:09.590 --> 0:59:12.430 And he said, how do you spell Berean? 0:59:13.320 --> 0:59:13.700 I don't know. 0:59:14.110 --> 0:59:23.860 One R, two R's. B-E-A-B-E-R-B-E-R-R-E-A-N-E-N-E. I didn't know how to 0:59:23.880 --> 0:59:24.270 spell it. 0:59:24.680 --> 0:59:24.900 Yeah. 0:59:25.000 --> 0:59:26.760 And he didn't know how to spell it. And we 0:59:26.780 --> 0:59:28.560 wrestled with it. I needed a name to put on 0:59:28.600 --> 0:59:31.580 the website. He said, why don't you call it Sighted Moon? 0:59:31.700 --> 0:59:35.840 You never stop talking about this Sighted Moon stuff. And 0:59:35.880 --> 0:59:39.930 I really didn't like the name Sighted Moon. I thought, no, 0:59:39.950 --> 0:59:45.230 I want Berean Truth. But after saying it a few times, 0:59:45.290 --> 0:59:48.170 I started, okay, it ties into the Feast of Trumpets. Okay, 0:59:48.190 --> 0:59:50.950 it kind of makes sense. Yeah, okay, let's do Sighted Moon. 0:59:51.610 --> 0:59:53.979 That's how we got the name, because of this holy 0:59:54.020 --> 0:59:58.240 day and because I couldn't spell, which I still can't do. Anyway. Anyway. 0:59:59.660 --> 1:00:00.280 Funny story. 1:00:01.300 --> 1:00:02.060 Well, thanks, Joe. 1:00:02.660 --> 1:00:03.280 Thank you, Ryan. 1:00:03.300 --> 1:00:08.200 We certainly do appreciate everything that you do.
