The Feast of Trumpets
As many of you are aware, I am in midst of taking continuing education classes through the Institute of Jewish-Christian Studies. As a matter of fact, one of my 'Home Church's' Elders ( Brother Randy Lawson ) has chosen to join me in my deep topical studies. How Awesome!,....... CHURCH DISCIPLESHIP and FELLOWSHIP, ( all resulting in the Edification of Yeshua, Christ Jesus! ).
What we are finding, is that we are being blessed with additional insight toward both Scripture
and Prophecy, to say nothing of the deepening of our personal relationships with our Savior,Jesus.
Hebrew Class with Rabbi Jack
(Rabbi Jack is affiliated with Jewish Voice Today magazine and the Messianic teachings of Rabbi Jonathan Bernis,.... see them here.... Jewish Voice Ministries
So!, Now that the Fall Festivals are upon us, we would like to convey an excellent and (short)
Hebraic Fact of The Day which speaks to the Jewishness of Jesus. Today's word is " mo-ed ",
pronounced.....(moe-ED). It's Hebraic meaning ( and ancient hebraic words may have different meanings, which leaves a much more difficult job for the translator)
Found in Leviticus 23:1-2, ....... " THEN ADONAI SPOKE TO MOSES SAYING: 'SPEAK TO BNEI-YISRAEL, AND TELL THEM: ..... 'THESE ARE THE APPOINTED TIMES, APPOINTED MOEDIM OF ADONAI, WHICH YOU ARE TO PROCLAIM TO BE HOLY CONVOCATIONS-----MY MOEDIM."
MOEDIM
Often, and alike English, Hebrew words can have either deeper or multiple meanings,
and such is the case here. When we speak of Moedim, we're referring to these feasts
more formally as " God's Appointed Times "
( A deeper study would show the Feasts significance in several ways such as PROPHECY,
and how Jesus Himself was and is the fulfillment! AMEN )
As Rabbi Jonathan Bernis noted in his article, Acts 15 makes it clear that under the new covenant,
Believers from the nations are not obligated to keep the Moedim God established for the Jewish people. Nor do they in any way affect our salvation. BUT !, that does not mean we are not wise to take note of them and experience the blessings that can flow into our lives when we more fully understand how they find their fulfillment in YESHUA !
Happy Rosh Hashana
