yom habikkurim: The Person Ian Heard, 2020-01-09 God the Creator made a very unique and specialized realm in which we humans live. It is a realm of particles which cohere as what we call matter; it is also a realm of time, the flow of which he creates and causes to occur moment to moment! It is altogether different from the realm of eternity and non-matter that he occupies. All of this special creation displays both his wisdom and glory. Within it and within our time realm, he makes himself known--and especially so since our departure from him at the fall of man. Not only has the One known as Wisdom made this realm, but he has continued to invade it to call mankind back to himself. Indeed, he eventually invaded as Wisdom made Human to complete an astonishing work in which all may be included as his brand new creation! |

yom habikkurim: The Mystery of the Seven Rebecca Williams Love, 2025-02-03 What if, for the person who is willing to take the time to dig just a little bit deeper than they have ever gone before, there were treasures beyond imagination, just waiting to be found in God’s Word? That person could be you. You could ask God to open your eyes to behold wondrous things out of His word. And He would. You would suddenly view Bible study as an adventure, and what you find would thrill your soul! I know this, because this happened to me, and this book is the story of that treasure hunt. I was determined to study my Bible as though I were searching for hidden treasure. When one sets out to dig for gold, it is first necessary to survey the ground closely. Gold is generally located deep underground, near bedrock; on the surface, however, there are clues. The presence of certain minerals and rock formations can often indicate where gold may be found. Repeated numbers and phrases, can be such indicators in the Bible. The number seven has been called the number of perfection or completion, and we see it figuring prominently all throughout the Word of God. Wherever we see the number seven in scripture, that is a good indication that there is something more to be found. That is where we dig for treasure! |

yom habikkurim: God Plants Seeds Anna Hartt, 2020-05-20 God Plants Seeds is about realizing we all have a purpose on this earth, ordained by God before our births. He fills the hour glass of our lives with time and love; what we do with these gifts determines what we harvest from the fields of our lives, the ubuntu. We are obligated to love one another, to understand the adage, I am because we are. Loving one person creates ripple effects throughout the world; loving the whole world is our gift of gratitude to God for all He has done for us. Only when we become Christ with flesh on will we accomplish God's plan for our lives. Listening for the tolling of a steeple bell from an old country church as evening comes, we hear Christ calling to us to come home. One tiny light, your light, can help heal the world's darkness. With God's love and grace, our children will harvest His peace through the seeds of character and talents that He has planted in all of us. As our Eternal Father, God directs our plans. Without Him, we are nothing; with Him, we can be our very best as leaders of the world. |

yom habikkurim: Revelation Andrew D. Parker, 2017-05-31 Many have tried to understand Revelation, but evidently few have actually taken the visions apart to study their chronology. This book is part of the results of years of studying Revelation through the Greek, not a translation. This first book, part one of the commentary, includes a thorough discussion of the keys necessary for understanding Revelation and the timing of its events. The entire commentary will include a new translation of Revelation along with running commentary in what is believed to be a close rendition of Revelation’s true chronology. Included support for these understandings comes from the Old and New Testaments, early Christian writings and ancient Jewish understandings. It is the author’s belief that without these new findings Christians will not be able to fully understand Revelation and the End Times. |

yom habikkurim: The Flat Earth as Key to Decrypt the Book of Enoch Zen Garcia, 2015-09-26 Shortly after accepting the flat earth as a model for the world, I decided to revisit the Book of the Courses of the Heavenly Luminaries to see if my new understanding would somehow mirror what Enoch was sharing as the motion of the sun and moon. As I began to read chapters 71-82, I found to my utter amazement that I was able to grasp those passages. I knew then that the vision that the angel Uriel had shown to Enoch could only be deciphered if one were to imagine Enoch's description of the revolution of the sun and the moon. As seen from above the flat circular plane of the earth as described by Isaiah; and that Enoch must have been taken up to perhaps where Polaris is, centered directly above the North Pole, and while looking down at the backdrop of the earth, was instructed on the motions of both the sun and moon. Without such conception, it is in my opinion impossible to apply these descriptions to the model of the earth as a spherical planet. |
yom habikkurim: The Tapestry of Jewish Time Nina Beth Cardin, 2000 Rabbi Cardin--writing as a religious leader, friend, neighbor, wife, mother, and daughter--guides us toward a fuller understanding of Judaism. She invites us to become weavers of tradition; to knit our personal stories together with those of our ancestors and our community; and to honor, savor, and celebrate the sacred in our lives. This important addition to the Jewish family library presents detailed explanations of each ritual, along with historical, cultural, and scriptural background. By describing traditional rites as well as contemporary innovations--the Passover seder and Miriam's Cup, baby-naming ceremonies and the practice of wrapping the newborn in a tallit--Rabbi Cardin shows how we can honor and add to our tradition. Supplementary margin notes offer: Examples of ethical wills Personal anecdotes Rabbinic stories, folk tales, and poetry Tips on addressing the December Dilemma Enhancing the volume are exquisite drawings by Ilene Winn-Lederer, a mini-prayerbook of blessings for home observance, and a 20-year calendar of Jewish holidays. Rabbi Cardin invites us to record details of our observance in Personal Weavings--favorite holiday recipes, family rituals, and prayers of the heart--so that the Jewish tradition may be renewed and enriched. The Tapestry of Jewish Time reflects a profound spirituality that inspires us all to contribute to the lush weave of Jewish life. |
yom habikkurim: The Prophetic Feasts of Israel James C. Taylor, 2014-08-18 In the Hebrew language, the word feasts literally means appointed times. God appointed Seven Feasts for the Hebrew people to celebrate and to remember until the end of time. Through those Seven Feasts, God not only spoke directly of his plan for mankind, but he also gave us some beautiful historical - and future - pictures of his plan of redemption and provision embedded within the precepts of the ancient Mosaic Law. As we look at each of these Seven Feasts, we should not only be amazed and astonished at God's consistency and perfection in all that he does; but we should also realize that each event prophesied in the Seven Feasts has, thus far, unfolded perfectly and will continue to do so in the time to come. The first Four Feasts were fulfilled in the days of Christ and the Early Church; but the last three await God's perfect timing for their fulfillment in the End Time. |

yom habikkurim: Reflections on the Major Holy Days of Judaism Dr. Martin Sicker, 2020-04-13 It should come as no surprise that Judaism, which has existed as the religion and culture of the children of Israel since the days of Moses, more than three millennia ago, has had occasion to institute markers reflective of its development and history from then to the present day. The present work, ‘Reflections on the Major Holy Days of Judaism,’ is intentionally limited in scope to those occasions earmarked as ‘holy convocations’ in the primary sourcebooks of Judaism, The Five Books of Moses, known in Jewish lore as the Torah, and in many translations as the Pentateuch. It is these ‘holy convocations’ that dominate Judaism’s annual religious and liturgical calendar, yet the biblical texts that ordain them are in many instances less than clear with regard to their observance. As a result, over the millennia since their original promulgation, scholars and others have struggled with the problem of defining in acceptable and actionable terms the purported intent of the sacred texts, a process that continues to the present day. This study recalls the notable reflections of scholars since the first century C.E., as well as their disagreements, on the evolution of the Major Holy Days of Judaism, their significance, traditions, and distinctive customs. |
yom habikkurim: The Theopolitical Discourses of Moses Martin Sicker, 2009 The Book of Deuteronomy, the last of the Five Books of Moses or Pentateuch, consists in the main of Moses' final discourses delivered to the children of Israel as they stood poised to begin the conquest and settlement of the land upon which they were to build a national society. The central concern of Moses, as reflected in these discourses, is with the challenge of nation building, creating an Israelite nation out of a mélange of ethnically related tribes and clans that were just liberated from centuries of subjugation and servitude in a relatively sophisticated pagan environment. That which is to bind them together is not a compact between them but rather a common covenant with God to which all would be equal parties. Many of the terms of the covenant were revealed incrementally in the earlier books of the Pentateuch. However, it is only here in Deuteronomy that Moses begins to give them the clearly discernible shape of a constitution for the covenantal society to be established as a nation-state in its divinely assigned territory. Within the constitutional framework set forth in the work is a range of precepts, rules, and regulations governing both those matters that are between man and God and those between man and man, understood as the two sides of a common coin, the covenant. In the effort to comprehend and explain the highly complex biblical text, the author has consulted and cited a wide range of commentaries and studies written over a period of some two millennia that have sought to understand the biblical texts from a variety of perspectives, many of which are virtually inaccessible to those without a good working knowledge of Hebrew. |
yom habikkurim: Exodus, Redemption Revealed Jane Owens, 2015-02-11 The book of Exodus reveals the redemptive plan of God taking the children of Israel out of Egypt and into the land of milk and honey, the Promised Land. After we are born again, our journey with Jesus/Yeshua, our Messiah, is a reflection of the children of Israel. We go through times of dryness when it seems God has forsaken us, our prayers dont go past the ceiling, and we are constantly distracted by vain imaginations. We are buffeted by the cares of this world and wonder if it will ever end. In the face of that discouragement, we are tempted to give up and return to our old pagan (un-Christian) ways. The Israelites often murmured against Moses and complained about their circumstance saying, when will we come into the Land of Promise? When will we see that land of milk and honey? Hang on! Dont give up. If you are looking for Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah, you will find Him throughout the book of Exodus. Its His story and its our story too. Psalm 145:14 says, The LORD upholds all that fall and raises up all those that are bowed down. He is our redeemer, sanctifier, healer, and coming king. In these days of instant demands and knowledge, we find an author who gives us a concept that knowledge must come from His Spirit. Jane Owens walks us along that understanding of these books called TorahGods loving teaching and instructions. Curtis C. Taylor, senior pastor, Beit Lechem Ministries, Colorado Jane Owens has taken the book of Exodus, which is 3,500 years old, and made it relevant for today. She was inspired to inspire others as a pastor that leads the sheep. This book is a valuable resource and needed in the body of Christ. Pastor Nicholas Plummer, Beit Tehila Congregation, Brandon, Florida |
yom habikkurim: Modern Christianity Dennis Loze, 2010-10 Almost 2 billion people profess to be Christians, whilst they have differences in doctrine, they generally share similar beliefs. The truth is, most never truly study the Bible, many others never even open it. Most professing Christians have no idea what it teaches on almost any subject. Their beliefs are derived from assumptions based on what they have been told the Bible says. They can readily give their definition of what the Bible says, but cannot give the actual Bible definition. Jesus said Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfil them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be least in the Kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the Kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:17-19) (New International Version) Judeo Christianity heritage is so important to understand, but unfortunately very few Christians have had the courage or encouragement to familiarise themselves with this heritage. The roots of Christianity run so deep into the Hebrew soil, but the actual study of the Hebrew world has been so superficial and also deemed irrelevant. Have we been guilty of allowing Man's Law replacing God's Law. Christians should re examine their Jewish roots so as to affect a more authentic Biblical understanding and lifestyle. |
yom habikkurim: IGBO - ISRAEL Odi Moghalu, 2025-04-23 The “legend” of “The Lost Tribes of Israel” remained for scholars,historians, archeologists, anthropologists and Hebraists a fascinating topic for millennia. When Israel faced an imperial conquest in the hands of the Assyrian empire in 722 B.C. as earlier warned by prophets Isaiah and Hosea, the nation also went on exile and into what seemed oblivion. A people who for penalty of apostasy became a dispersed people across the globe for nearly three thousand years creating a puzzle of identity and location for so long has suddenly began to emerge from the shadows of time. The account of their journey and experiences over this period had largely remained conjectures as they assimilated amongst foreign cultures. The Igbo, sojourned in the two sides of lower Niger, one of Africa’s great rivers second only to the Nile and like other exiled tribes of Israel was relatively unknown to those who never had any contacts with them. The era of trans - Atlantic forced migrations and European colonization opened this connection. The exposition of a people’s beliefs, behavior, attitudes and values within religious, cultural and political context had only affi rmed their origin and identity. |

yom habikkurim: Reflections on the Book of Numbers Martin Sicker, 2014-12-30 Perusing this biblical book through a theopolitical prism, it may be seen that another unifying theme that courses through the diverse contents of this biblical work is that of molding the diverse tribes of the children of Israel into a functioning confederacy presided over by an increasingly strong central authority. For forty years, Moses wrestled with the problem of retaining the tribal structure of the children of Israel as a vehicle for the transmission of traditional teachings and values from the generation of the exodus to their descendants and, at the same time, attempting to restructure intertribal relationships within the confederacy by the nationalization and centralization of the evolving religion, focused on the Tabernacle and its rites that served as the adhesive that bound them to each other. What the narrative also illustrates is the challenge of exercising the effective central leadership essential to containing the centripetal social forces that tended to impede the transition from a tribal confederacy to a unified nation, a challenge that purportedly caused an eleven-day trip from Mount Sinai to the Promised Land to take thirty-eight years to complete. |

yom habikkurim: Wyatt Earp's Cow-boy Campaign Chuck Hornung, 2016-05-12 What can be learned from another retelling of the Tombstone saga? Recent revelations challenge the traditional view of Wyatt Earp's campaign against the Cow-boy confederation as a bloody personal feud a la western fiction. It was a seek and destroy mission sanctioned by the United States attorney general, the U.S. marshal and the Arizona Territory governor, following a year of corrupt law enforcement in league with the Cow-boys' livestock raids, stagecoach holdups and other atrocities. Presented in three sections, this book establishes the major players involved in the convergence on Tombstone, provides an account of Earp's activities during the 18 months prior to the final action and discusses the provenance and credibility of the Otero Letter. Discovered in 2001, the letter--believed to be written by New Mexico Territory Governor Miguel Otero--offers evidence that Earp's party was given government aid. The author examines the details of the letter, including the shotgun dual between Earp and Curly Bill, the split between Earp and Doc Holliday, sanctuary for the Earp posse in Colorado and Holliday's extradition fight, Earp's covert assault resulting in Johnny Ringo's death, and the controversial courtship and marriage of Earp and Josephine Marcus. |

At Creation, the Morning Stars sang, but when Jesus tents among us, they dance an exquisite Ballet. Guided by the Dance above them, based upon roots laid centuries before, the Magi make their journey in faith. |

yom habikkurim: The Mysteries of John the Baptist Tobias Churton, 2012-10-24 The search for the real historical person known as John the Baptist and the traditions that began with him • Explores why John the Baptist is so crucially important to the Freemasons, who were originally known as “St. John’s Men” • Reveals how John and Jesus were equal partners and shared a common spiritual vision to rebuild Israel and overcome corruption in the Temple of Jerusalem • Explains the connections between John as lord of the summer solstice, his mysterious severed head, fertility rites, and ancient Jewish harvest festivals Few Freemasons today understand why the most significant date in the Masonic calendar is June 24th--the Feast of the Birth of St. John the Baptist and the traditional date for appointing Grand Masters. Nor do many of them know that Masons used to be known as “St. John’s Men” or that John the Baptist was fundamental to the original Masonic philosophy of personal transformation. Starting with the mystery of John in Freemasonry, Tobias Churton searches out the historical Baptist through the gospels and ancient histories, unearthing the real story behind the figure lauded by Jesus’s words “no greater man was ever born of woman.” He investigates John’s links with the Essenes and the Gnostics, links that flourish to this day. Exposing how the apostle Paul challenged John’s following, twisting his message and creating the image of John as “merely” a herald of Jesus, the author shows how Paul may have been behind the executions of both John and Jesus and reveals a precise date for the crucifixion and the astonishing meaning of the phrase “the third day.” He examines the significance of John’s severed head to holy knights, such as the Knights Templar, and of Leonardo’s famous painting of John. Churton also explains connections between John, the summer solstice, fertility rites, and ancient Jewish harvest festivals. Revealing John as a courageous, revolutionary figure as vital to the origins of Christianity as his cousin Jesus himself, Churton shows how John and Jesus, as equal partners, launched a covert spiritual operation to overcome corruption in the Temple of Jerusalem, re-initiate Israel, and resurrect Creation. |
yom habikkurim: Awake, Arise and Triumph David R. Wood, 2008-07 What Love Is is a book that was written about and for people that I work with. It is a book about how they feel about the loves, family, friends, and pets in and out of their lives. I wrote this book by asking people if they wanted to be in the book, and whom or what did they want me to write about. It was a wonderful experience for me to put in words what they were feeling about the special people that they share their lives with everyday. I am glad that I could also share in someway the joys and happiness that they give to the people and pets who mean so much to them. It was truly an honor for me to share this time with them. And I am hoping that there is a message in What Love Is for someone else too. |
