covering of His Tent He will hide me. On a Rock He raises me up.

is for you too!

Scripture speaks of a secret place where we can simply go, be alone, be

protected, pray, and hear from YâHuWsHúa. Knowing there is such a

place is a matter of faith. Going back time and again, that's a matter of

building a relationship. You need not have an advanced degree in any

subject, need not have memorized Scripture from beginning to end, but

instead be aware the YaHuWaH of Y’Isra’al has a place for each Jew

and Gentile who will open their minds and hearts to Him.

Mt 6:5-8

When you pray, you shall not be as the role-fakers, for they love to

stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that

they may be seen by men. Most certainly, I tell you, they have received

their reward. But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber,

and having shut your door, pray to your Father Who is in secret, and

your Father Who sees in secret shall reward you openly. In praying,

don’t use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they

shall be heard for their much speaking. Therefore don’t be like them,

don't you see that your Father knows what things you need before you

ask Him.

The truth in reality is visited in this secret place AND must be shared by

those who will live or else ... they will perish ... in darkness.

It is written

Lu 11:33

“No one, when he has lit a Lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket,

but on a stand, that those who come in may see the Light.

Tehillim. 119:105

Your Word is a Lamp to my feet, and a Light (aur) for my path.

The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your

whole body is also full of Light; but when it is evil, your body also is full

of darkness. Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.

If therefore your whole body is full of Light, having no part dark, it shall

be wholly full of Light, as when the Lamp with its bright shining gives

you Light.”

The menorah is the only symbol created by YâHuWsHúa`

With this in mind, heart soul and strength let us study together in the

who see it from afar. The Secret Place, here, shines a bit of light so

many can see from afar. The topics we have chosen are addressed to

Jew and Gentile together. We do this because that is what the Bible

does. This opens the window to make more sense of what Scripture tells

us!

In the secret place is plain language, something simple to read. This is a

mere starting place for deeper consideration.

(Thursday)

(*Wed evening to Thurs evening)

Mattiyahu 24:3.

And as He was sitting upon the Mount of the Olives, the pupils

approached Him privately, saying:

“Tell us when shall these things be?

Page 9: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

Yshá`Yâhuw 11: 10

And it shall be in that Day, the Root of Yishai

YâHuWsHúa, the Branch, the Sprout, the Root..."will remove

the sin of this land one day"!

1 Thess 4:16

For YâHuWsHúa himself shall descend from heaven with a

shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the shofar blast

of Aluahiym: and the dead in HaMaSHiYaCH shall rise first:

1st of the 7th, ushers in the 1000 year reign of YHWH, it is the

day of HIS RETURN

Then two shall be in the field, the one is taken and the one is left. “Two

shall be grinding at the mill, one is taken and one is left.

Yeshayahu 55:6

'Seek YHWH when He is to be found' There is an open window now for

us to return to YHWH and repent. But a grace period, by definition, does

not last forever.

A solemn warning to His watchmen

But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the Shofar, and

the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take [any] person

from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I

require at the watchman's hand.

Page 10: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

This time is at hand, in these latter days we should be seeking his will in

our life, this will be the day of his return……….

The Day of Shofar is also known as Rosh Hashanah the (civil) New Year,

The Day of Remembrance, Judgment Day, and the start of the Ten Days

of Penitence.

It is a day of remembering the beginning of the world,

When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of Aluahiym

shouted for joy?

and a commemoration of the dead (who will be resurrected on that day).

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the

trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we

shall be changed.

This is why, with the Day of Atonement, the Day of Shofar is one of the

two great solemn Sacred days. New Year's Day is thus a day of

judgment and a new beginning. Not merely the anniversary of creation,

it is a renewal of creation (the time everything will be made new, at the

HaMaSHiYaCH’ return).

Beginning on the Day of Shofar and ending on the Day of Atonement is

what called the

(Ten Days of Penitence,)

or

"Days of Awe,"

Dedicated to the inner cleansing of the man.

They are also known as "Days of Return," because we are to examine

ourselves and return to YHWH.

On Shofar,

Page 11: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

YHWH opens three books:

The first

containing the names of the righteous, who are in the book of life,

The second

contains the names of those irremediably wicked whose fate is death,

The third

book has the names of those in between, who have until Atonement

to determine their fates

The weekly Sabbath between Shofar and Atonement is known as

("return"), meaning

Shabbat Shuvah ("Sabbath [of] Return") refers to the Shabbat that

occurs during the Ten Days of Repentance between Rosh Hashanah

and Yom Kippur. The Jewish calendar is so designed that only one

Shabbat can occur between these dates. This Shabbat is named after

the first word of the Haftarah and literally means "Return!" It is

perhaps a play on, but not to be confused with, the word Teshuvah

(the word for "repentance") which is the motif of Ten Days of

Repentance

Hosea 14:1

,

Return to YHWH your Aluah; for you have fallen down because of

your sin.

Page 12: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

Hosea 14:2

Take Words (Yâhuwshúa `with you, and return to YHWH. Tell Him,

“Bear away all our sin, and receive us well, so we offer the bulls of

our lips.

Bulls of our lips:

The words mentioned earlier in the verse. With no temple intact and

being in exile, this is all Efrayim has available to bring to YHWH as an

acceptable sacrifice.

Rom. 12:1-2.

Therefore I appeal to you, my brothers, through the compassions of

YHWH to present your convocation bodies a living, pure, well-

pleasing offering to the Mighty One, by your service of the Word. .

And do not conform yourselves to this age, instead be transformed

to the renovation of your understanding, for you to discern what the

good and well-pleasing and perfect desire of YHWH is.

Hosea 14:3

Ashshuwr can’t save us. We won’t ride on horses; neither will we say

any more to the work of our hands, ‘Our mighty ones!’ for in You the

fatherless finds mercy.”

A horse: paralleling Ashur (Assyria), this is one of the things Y’Isra’al

tended to trust in (for military security) instead of YHWH. Fatherless:

the Northern Kingdom in particular, who until now had forgotten who

our ancestors were.

His Kingdom is within your reach

Mikha 4:5-6.

Indeed all the nations may walk in the name of their mighty ones;

but we will walk in the Name of YHWH our Aluahiym into the ages

and beyond. “In that Day,” says YHWH, “I will assemble that which is

Page 13: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I

have afflicted;

Lame: an allusion back to Yaa’qov’s injury

B'Rayshiyth. 32:31

Therefore the children of Ysra'al don’t eat the sinew of the hip, which

is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because He touched the

hollow of Yaa’qov’s thigh in the sinew of the hip.

AND TO the HEALING POWER of HIS KINGDOM

YashaYahuw 35:6

Then the lame man shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the

mute shall sing; for waters shall break out in the wilderness, and

streams in the desert.

Leap like a deer: at first a deer’s legs are wobbly, but within minutes

of birth, it can walk with sure-footedness. A lame man who leaped

was a sign to those in the Hekal that Kepha and Yahuwchanan were

carrying on Yâhuwshúa’’s work of proclaiming the Kingdom that

many opted to defer

Acts 3:7-8

And having taken his right hand, he raised him, and immediately his

feet and ankles were strengthened! And leaping up, he stood and

walked about, and entered with them into the temple, walking about,

and leaping, and praising YHWH!

Delaying it until there was another opening in our own day.

Interestingly, Acts 3 specifically mentions that the man’s feet and

ankle bones were made firm. (Compare v. 3 above.)

and thus a promise that Yaaqov will be restored;

Compare

Page 14: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

Tz’fanyah 3:19.

Behold, at That Time I will deal with all those who afflict you, and I

will rescue those who are lame, and gather those who were driven

away. I will give them praise and esteem, whose shame has been in

all the earth.

I have caused injury: in keeping with the curses He promised would

come on a disobedient Israel to chastise us.

Deut. 28:20;

YHWH will send on you cursing, confusion, and rebuke, in all that

you put your hand to do, until you are destroyed, and until you

perish quickly; because of the evil of your doings, by which you have

forsaken Me.

Deut 30:19

Now therefore write this song for yourselves, and teach it to the

children of Y’Isra'al: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a

witness for Me against the children of Y’Isra'al.

Teach your children about the Father

(YHWH)

Her who was thrust out: the Northern Kingdom.

Hosea 14:4

“I will heal their waywardness. I will love them freely; for My anger is

turned away from him.

Freely: or voluntarily

Hosea 14:5

I will be like the dew to Y’Isra’al. He will blossom like the lily, [Songs

2:1]

and send down his roots like Lebanon.

Page 15: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

Dew: traditionally associated with the resurrection, but also with the

manna, which arrived when there was dew. The root word for “dew”

means “to cover over”. Lily: possibly narcissus or daffodil; a six-petal

flower sometimes called the “rose of Sharon”, though it is not a rose.

Hosea 14:6

His shoots will go forth, and His beauty will be like the olive tree, and

His fragrance like Lebanon

Shoots will go forth: Since this is speaking of Efrayim, it is an allusion

to Yaa’qov’s promise that Yoseyf’s branches would stride across a

wall.

Ber. 49:22

“Yahuwseph [increaser/adding] is a fruitful vine, (Rachel's son) a fruitful

vine by a spring. His branches run over the wall.

Splendor: majesty or vigor. The scent of Levanon would be the pleasant

fragrance of cedar trees.

Hosea 14:7

Men will dwell in his shade. They will revive like the grain, and

blossom like the vine. Their fragrance will be like the wine of

Lebanon.

Under his shade: benefiting from the ways of Y’Isra’al. Since the whole

passage is addressed to Y’Isra’al, these others may be the “companions”

of the House of Y’Isra’al.

Ychezqa’l 37:16

You, son of ‘Âthâ´m , take one stick, and write on it, For Yahuwdah, and

for the children of Y’Isra’al his companions: then take another stick, and

Page 16: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

write on it, For Yowseph, the stick of Ephraiym, and for all the House of

Y’Isra’al his companions:

Come back: to the Land, and to the Hebraic heritage.

The vine: Yâhuwshúa` said this is what He was.

Yahuwchanan 15:5

I am the Vine; and ye are the branches (Nätzärim). He who stays within

Me and I within him, this one will bear much fruit, because apart from

Me ye are not able to do even one thing.

Hosea 14:8

Ephrayim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I

answer, and will take care of him. I am like a green fir tree; from Me

your fruit is found.”

Idols: the most salient example that comes to mind is the crucifix.

He is a living tree to us; why do we need a dead one that focuses our

attention on a death that is no more? He will treat the House of

Yoseyf as if we had never gone astray, so why should He want a

reminder that He had to redeem us?

Zech. 10:6

“I will strengthen the House of Yahuwdah, and I will save the House

of Yowseph, and I will bring them back; or I will have mercy on

them; and they will be as though I had not cast them off: for I AM

YHWHtheir Aloha, and I will hear them.

Eph. 2:8-10

YHWH saved you by His special favor when you believed. And you

can't take credit for this (belief); it is a gift from YHWH. Deliverance

Page 17: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

is not a reward for the good things we have done [works], so none of

us can boast about it.

For we are YHWH’s workmanship /achievement.

He has created us anew in haMashiyach Yâhuwshúa`, so that we can

do the good things He planned for us long ago.

Hosea 14:9

Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Who is prudent,

that he may know them for the ways of YHWH are straightforward,

and the righteous walk in them; But the rebellious stumble in them.

Who is wise: anyone who asks can be.

Yaaqov/James 1:5

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of Aluah, Who gives to all

liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him.

These things: the restoration and return of the House of Y’Isra’al.

Straightforward: level, correct, straight, fitting, proper, and upright.

Rebel: revolt or overstep, i.e., leaving the path through either

carelessness or willfulness. The rebels are still affected by the Torah;

they can still be redeemed. Those who are wholly wicked will simply

ignore it.

Micah 7:19-20

He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities

under foot; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

You will give truth to Yaa’qob, and mercy to Abraham, as You have

sworn to our fathers from the days of old.

are read on this Sabbath. Repentance is the vehicle YHWH has

assigned through which man may reach Him. The only way to

approach YHWH is through repentance. The value of repentance is

also emphasized by the Biblical example of King Hezekiah, who,

Page 18: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

when upon his deathbed, pleaded with YHWH for mercy. YHWH

granted Hezekiah's request and extended his life for fifteen years,

II Kings 20:1-11.

In those days was HizquiYahuw sick to death. YashaYahuw the prophet

the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, “Thus says YHWH, ‘Set

your house in order; for you shall die, and not live.’” Then he turned his

face to the wall, and prayed to YHWH, saying, “Remember now, YHWH,

I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect

heart, and have done that which is good in Your sight.” HizquiYahuw

wept bitterly. It happened, before YashaYahuw had gone out into the

middle part of the city, that the Word of YHWH came to him, saying,

“Turn back, and tell HizquiYahuw the prince of My people, ‘Thus says

YHWH, the Al of Dawiyd your father, “I have heard your prayer. I have

seen your tears. Behold, I will heal you. On the third day, you shall go

up to the House of YHWH. I will add to your days fifteen years. I will

deliver you and this city out of the hand of the sovereign of Ashuwr. I

will defend this city for My own sake, and for My servant Dawiyd’s

sake.”’ YashaYahuw said, “Take a cake of figs.”They took and laid it on

the boil, and he recovered. HizquiYahuw said to YashaYahuw, “What

shall be the sign that YHWH will heal me, and that I shall go up to the

house of YHWH the third day?” YashaYahuw said, “This shall be the sign

to you from YHWH, that YHWH will do the thing that He has spoken:

shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?”

HizquiYahuw answered, “It is a light thing for the shadow to go forward

ten steps. Nay, but let the shadow return backward ten steps.”

YashaYahuw the prophet cried to YHWH; and He brought the shadow

ten steps backward, by which it had gone down on the dial of Ahaz.

There are three areas of repentance in understanding:

thought,

speech,

action.

Page 19: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

Unless one corrects his actions, he is not truly repentant.

Hoshia-na:

Baruch [is] ha Mälekh Y’Isra’al that cometh b'Shem YHWH.

All the Spring Feasts were fulfilled at Yâhuwshúa` first coming, and on

the exact day of the feast. All the Fall Feasts picture the Second Advent,

and the Feast of Shofar is the first of the fall feasts, picturing the

rapture.

Galátas 1:11

But I make known to you, brothers, the glad tidings which was

announced by me, that it is not according to a son of ’Âthâ´m: For I did

neither receive it, nor was I taught it from a son of ’Âthâ´m, instead [it

came to me] through a disclosure of Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed!

The Feast of Shofar is also known as the coronation of the HaMashiyach,

when he will start reigning as king, thus the beginning of the

,

Page 20: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

which includes the tribulation. It is also time for the bema judgment, or

the judgement of the works of the righteous, and judgement must begin

at the house of YHWH.

Ten Reasons

Why YHWH

Commanded Us to Keep the Day of Shofar,

Saadia Gaon

(892-942 A.D.)

The first reason:

Because this day is the beginning of creation, on which the Sacred One

blessed be He, created the world and reigned over it. Just as is with

kings at the start of their reign -- Shofar and horns are blown in their

presence to make it known and to let it be heard in every place -- thus it

is when we designate the Creator, may He be blessed, as King on this

day, for David said: With Shofar and sound of the horn, shout ye before

the King, YHWH.

Tehillim 98:6.

With shofars and sound of the ram’s horn, make a joyful noise before

the Sovereign, YHWH.

The second reason:

Because the day of New Year is the first of the ten days of repentance,

the shofar is sounded on it to announce to us as one warns and says:

"Whosoever wants to repent -- let him repent; and if he does not, let

him reproach himself." Thus do the kings: first they warn the people of

their decrees; then if one violates a decree after the warning, his excuse

is not accepted.

Page 21: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

The third reason:

To remind us of Mount Sinai, . . .

The blare of the horn grew louder and louder,

Exodus 19:19,

When the sound of the shofar grew louder and louder, Moshah spoke

and Aluahiym answered him by a Voice.

Aluahiym responded as a witness through a voice: Aramaic, "from before

Aluahiym he was answered by a voice". A normal voice or breath grows

weaker as it progresses. This trumpet-like sound was, according to Ibriy

tradition, the words of the Torah going out in all 70 languages to the 70

nations besides Y’Isra’al, but only Y’Isra’al chose to receive them. The

descendants who would later be dispersed throughout the whole world

stood here within their forefathers, and it was for their sake that the

nations were offered the Torah as well (cf. Romans 11). In Acts 2,

traditionally on the anniversary of this date, the covenant was renewed

again (as Abraham's covenant was renewed here with adaptations for

the size of the nation now) with words in many languages and tongues

of fire. (See 20:18)

and that we should accept for ourselves the covenant that our ancestors

accepted for themselves, as they said we will do and obey,

Exodus 24:7.

He took the scroll of the covenant (the scroll of the Torah) and read it in

the hearing of the people, and they said, “All that YHWH has spoken will

we do, and be obedient.”

(" I/We Do.")

The fourth reason:

Page 22: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

To remind us of the words of the prophets that were compared to the

sound of the shofar, as it is said: Then whosoever heareth the sound of

the horn, and taketh not warning, if the sword come, and taketh him

away, his blood shall be upon his own head . . . whereas if he had taken

warning, he would have delivered his soul,

Ezekiel 33:4-5.

Then whoever hears the sound of the shofar, and doesn’t take warning,

if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be on his own

head.

[Borders: literally, extremities. Those whom others consider extreme are

often the ones who are best at guarding the territory, and this is done

best on its edges. They are usually not those known as leaders and

rarely popular, but like half the tribe of Menashe who were better at

overseeing the tribes who wanted to live east of the Yarden,

YHWHpositions those who are best at the task where they will be most

useful. These texts are about Yom Teruach - the blowing of the Shofar

of warning.]

Ezekiel 33:5

He heard the sound of the shofar, and didn’t take warning; his blood

shall be on him; whereas if he had taken warning, [Take warning: or,

receive teaching, accept the light shone upon him, be admonished.] he

would have delivered his being.

The fifth reason:

To remind us of the destruction of the Temple . . . , O my soul, the

sound of the horn, the alarm of war,

Jeremiah 4:19.

My belly! My belly! I am pained at my very heart; my heart is disquieted

in me; I can’t hold my peace; because you have heard, O my being, the

sound of the shofar, the alarm of war.

Page 23: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

When we hear the sound of the shofar, we will ask YHWHto rebuild the

Temple.

The sixth reason:

To remind us of the binding of Isaac who offered his life to Heaven. We

should also offer our lives for the sanctification of His Name, and thus

we will be remembered for good.

The seventh reason:

When we will hear the blowing of the shofar, we will be fearful, and we

will tremble, and we will humble ourselves before the Creator, for that is

the nature of the shofar -- it causes fear and trembling, as it is written:

Shall the horn be blown in a city and the people not tremble?

Amos 3:6.

If a shofar is sounded in a city, won't the people tremble with fear? If

there is a calamity in a city, shall not YHWHhave done it?

Sounded: the particular term used refers to short, staccato notes that

signified an alarm due to an impending attack.

The eighth reason:

To recall the day of the great judgment and to be fearful of it, as it is

said: The great day of the Lord is near, it is near and hasteth greatly . . .

a day of the horn and alarm,

Zephaniah 1:14-16.

The Great Day of YHWHis near. It is near, and hurries greatly, the Voice

of the Day of YHWH. The brave man cries there bitterly. That Day is a

day of wrath, a day of distress and dire straits, a day of trouble and ruin,

a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness, a day of

the shofar and battle-alarm, against the fortified cities, and against the

Page 24: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

high battlements. (Shofar points to Yom Kippur; battle-alarm to Yom

Teruah)

The Length of That Day:

The Type:

Bereshiyth 8:14

In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth

was dry. (The "flood" of destruction was on the earth for 370 days while

YHWH’s people (Noah and family) were safe in His ark.) [This was 370

days after the flood began up to the time they emerged from the ark ...

or one year and ten days, at that time—the same length as the interval

between one Feast of Shofar until Yom Kippur the following year.] - a

360 day year

YashaYahuw 32:10

For a few days beyond a year you shall be troubled, (for a little more

than a year you complacent women; for the vintage shall fail. The

harvest won’t come. ...

YashaYahuw 34:8

For YHWH has a Day of Vengeance, a Year of Recompense for the

cause of Tsiyown.

... YashaYahuw 34:9

Its [Edom's] streams shall be turned into tar, its dust into brimstone,

And its land shall become burning asphalt.

YashaYahuw 34:10

It won’t be quenched night nor day. Its smoke shall ascend a long time.

From generation to generation, it shall lie waste. No one shall pass

through it forever and ever.

YashaYahuw 34:11

Page 25: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

But the pelican and the porcupine shall possess it. The owl and the raven

shall dwell in it. Then He shall stretch the measuring line of chaos over

it, and the plumb line of emptiness [waste]. [Chaos: Heb., tohu.

Emptiness: or “waste”; Heb., bohu. These two terms were used of what

the earth became

(Gen. 1:2)

after a cataclysmic judgment and just before being reconstituted for the

use of humanity][Battle-alarm: Heb, t’ruah, the term for the first day of

the seventh month

(Lev. 23:24),

this then will be the day when what is being described will fall in the

annual calendar.]

The ninth reason:

To remind us of the ingathering of the scattered ones of Y’Isra’al, that

we ardently desire, as it is said: And it shall come to pass in that day,

that a great horn shall be blown; and they shall come that were lost in

the land of Assyria . . . and they shall worship the Lord in the holy

mountain at Jerusalem,

YashaYahuw 27:13.

It shall happen in That Day that a Great Shofar shall be blown; and

those who were perishing in the land of Ashshuwr, and those who were

outcasts in the land of Mitsrayim, shall come; and they shall worship

YHWH in the Qodesh Mountain at Yahrushalom.

[cf. YirmeYahuw 23:7-8]

Matt. 24:31

He shall send out His Messengers with the sound of the Great Shofar

[Day of Atonement], and they shall gather together His chosen ones

from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

Page 26: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

YashaYahuw 11:12

He shall set up a Banner [Anointed] for the nations, and shall assemble

the outcasts of Ysra'al, and gather together the dispersed of Yahuwdah

from the four corners of the earth]

Deut. 30:4

If any of your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of the heavens, from

there will YHWH your Al gather you, and from there He will bring you

back:[this is the gathering of His living ones - the dead were raised 10

days earlier at Yom Teruach] (Note * 24:31:

The Great Shofar is blown on Yom Kippur (The Day of Atonement), and

also in the introduction of, the Jubilee Year. - the dead are raised 10

days earlier at the" " last shofar" - Day of Shofar . (Torah and Testimony

clarified translation)]

Tehillim 50:3-5

Our Aluahiym comes, and does not keep silent. A fire devours before

Him. It is very stormy around Him. He calls to the shemaya above, to the

earth, that He may judge His people: “Gather My Set-apart ones

together to Me, those who have made a covenant with Me by slaughter.”

Zech 9:14-17 "

YHWH shall be seen over them [Yahuwdah & Ephriam]; and His arrow

shall go flash like lightning; and the Master YHWH shall blow the

trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.

Zech 9:15

YHWH Master of Armies shall defend them; and they shall destroy and

overcome with sling stones; and they shall drink, and roar as through

wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.

Zech 9:16

Page 27: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

YHWH their Al shall save them in that Day as the flock of His people;

for they are like the jewels of a crown, lifted on high over His Land.

Zech 9:17

For how great is His Goodness, and how great is His Beauty!"

[Yom Kippur deliverance!]

Great shofar: an element of Yom Kippur ceremonies. Perishing: or being

exterminated. Outcasts: those thrust out, or those banished. From what

follows, it is clear this is speaking about the Northern Kingdom.

The tenth reason:

To remind us of the resurrection of the dead and the belief in it, as it is

said: All ye inhabitants of the world, and ye dwellers on the earth, when

an ensign is lifted up on the mountains, see ye; and when the horn is

blown, hear ye,

YashaYahuw 18:3.

All you inhabitants of the world, and you dwellers on the earth, when a

Banner is lifted up on the mountains, look! When the shofar is blown,

listen!

2 Cor 11:2

For I am jealous over you with jealousy of ALuaHiYM (אלהים ): for I

have espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a

chaste virgin to HaMashiyach.

Finally a word on

Page 28: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

The Hebrew Bible is fully aware of that. Deuteronomy declares the

worship of sun, moon, and stars as allotted by YHWH that is to all the other peoples

Dev 4:19.

And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto Shomayim, and when thou seest the shemesh, and the yarei'ach, and the kokhavim, even all the tz’va

HaShomayim, shouldest be driven to hishtachaveh (bow down, worship) them, and serve them which Hashem Aloheicha hath divided unto kol

HaGoyim under kol HaShomayim.

Duet 4:19

"or lest you lift up your eyes to the heavens and see the sun, the moon, the stars, and all the armies of heaven, you should be impelled

to bow down to them or enslave yourselves to these [things] that YHWH has apportioned to all the nations under the whole heaven;

Anyone can see the heavenly bodies, but we have heard from YHWH.

There is no “hard copy” of Him! People want something they can identify with, which is what makes the “god-man” concept so attractive,

because it makes them think they can be gods too. We can only understand what YHWH allows us to know about Himself, and we cannot

control what we cannot comprehend. Apportioned: divided, assigned, distributed; Aramaic, "designated to serve". I.e., He gave them to all

the nations and they are common (contrast v. 20).

Page 29: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

But none of them is to be identified specifically with YHWH.

Dev 4:20 But Hashem hath taken you, and brought you forth

out of the iron furnace, even out of Mitzrayim, to be unto Him an Am Nachalah (a people of inheritance), as ye are yom hazeh.

Deut 4:20. "But YHWH has selected you, and brought you out from the crucible

of iron--from Egypt--to become His own--for the purpose of being a people [that are His own] prized possession, just as [is the case] today."

Any wood placed into a furnace for smelting iron would be consumed immediately. Egypt completely used them up, while feeding them—like pack animals. Even the products forged of iron there—chariots—were used to kill them. Now they were going to a place that would serve

them rather than consuming them. Nothing in the Tabernacle was made of iron; YHWH had no use for it at this point. Prized possession: How

awesome! Why throw away such a rare privilege and settle for

something that the nations all stoop to--nations that He considered a mere drop in the bucket in comparison

Yeshayah40:15?

Surely the Goyim are like a drop in a bucket, and are accounted as dust

of the scales; surely He taketh up the iyim (islands) like fine dust.

Isa 40:15 See, nations are as a drop in a bucket, and are reckoned as dust on the

balance. See, He lifts up isles as fine dust.

Today we see the illegitimate worship of these celestial bodies , within those who claim to WORSHIP YHWH

How many more times will Y’Isra’al turned to

HIS CREATION and not their CREATOR

Melachim Bais 23:5, |5| And he did away with hakemarim (the idol priests), whom the

Melachim of Yehudah had ordained to burn ketoret in the high places in

Page 30: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

the towns of Yehudah, and in the places around Yerushalayim; them also

that burned ketoret unto Ba'al, to the shemesh, and to the yarei'ach, and to

the mazalot (constellations) and to all the Tzeva HaShomayim.

2 kgs 23:5 And he put down the black-robed priests whom the sovereigns of

Yehudah had appointed to burn incense on the high places in the cities of Yehudah and in the places all around Yerushalayim, and those who

burned incense to Baʽal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the constellations, and to all the host of the heavens

Melachim Bais 23:11

And he took away the susim that the Melachim of Yehudah had dedicated to the shemesh, at the entrance of the Beis Hashem, by the chamber of Natan-Melech the saris, which was in the colonnades, and

set eish to merkevot hashemesh.

2 Ki 23:11

And he did away with the horses that the sovereigns of Yehudah had

given to the sun, at the entrance to the House of YHWH, by the room of Nathan-Mele the eunuch, that were in the court. And he burned the

chariots of the sun with fire.

Yirmeyah 8:2 And they shall spread them out before the shemesh, and the yarei'ach, and all the tz'va haShomayim, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have consulted, and whom they have worshiped; they shall not be gathered up, nor be buried in a kever; they shall be like domen upon the surface

of ha'‘Âthâ´m ah.

Jer 8:2; and shall spread them before the sun and the moon and all the host of the heavens, which they have loved and which they have served and after which they have walked, which they have sought, and to which they have bowed themselves. They shall not be gathered nor buried;

they shall be for dung on the face of the earth.

Page 31: The DAY of the SHOFAR 2014 ( Yom Teruah)

And He brought me into the khatzer Beis Hashem hapenimit [i.e., the Court of the Kohanim], and, hinnei, at the petach (entrance) of the

Heikhal Hashem, between the Ulam and the Mizbe'ach, were about five and twenty ish, with their backs toward the Heikhal Hashem, and their

faces toward the east; and they bowing down toward the east worshiping the sun.

Ezek 8:16 And He brought me into the inner court of the House of YHWH. And there, at the door of the H al of YHWH, between the porch and the

altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs toward the H al of YHWH and their faces toward the east, and they were bowing

themselves eastward to the sun.

Yet in the creation story these celestial elements are simply taken as creatures like any others

Awake to Righteousness

Be not blind to the truth

And, hinnei, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that

Yâhuwshúa` passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O YHWH,

[thou] Ben David. An Yâhuwshúa` stood still, and called them, and said,

what will ye that I shall do unto you they say unto Him, YHWH, that our

eyes may be opened. So Yâhuwshúa` had compassion [on them], and

touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they

followed him.

A rule necessary, and of great extent. A servant in the Gospel Vineyard,

though worthy of his Comfortable support while in the work. Should

never preach for hire, or make a secular traffic of the Raukh (spiritual

work): what a scandal is it for a man to traffic with gifts which he

pretends, at least, to have received from the Raukh HaQodesh, of which

he is not the master, but the dispenser. He who preaches to get a living,

or make a fortune, is guilty of the most infamous sacrilege

The Everlasting Covenant is The Sabbath

ALuaHiYM Yâhuwshúa` HaMashiyach be with your Raukh
