Sefirat HaOmer

SEFIRAT HA'OMER - THE COUNTING OF THE OMER
4 Iyar/April 16

TODAY IS NINETEEN DAYS, WHICH ARE TO WEEKS AND FIVE DAYS OF THE OMER (Hod within Tiferet)

A great part of realizing and maintaining the beauty which is the balance of Tiferet is by the virtue of Hod - gratitude and the acknowledgment of limitations.
 
In the third week of the Counting of the Omer, Tiferet, balance and the beauty of a perfect equilibrium, is preeminent.

Chesed, Gevurah, Teferet, Netzach, Hod, Yesod and Malchut are seven of the ten sefirot through which we perceive G-d's relationship with creation. Each of these seven sefirot is also an attribute through which we can learn to better ourselves.

Chesed is best translated as loving-kindness and expresses the unlimited blessings with which G-d blesses creation. Giving of ourselves is a way of expressing Chesed.

Gevurah is the aspect of restraint, of holding back. Were G-d to not hold back and restrain the full impact of His Presence in the world, we could not exist. Therefore, Gevurah is also a necessary aspect of G-d's relationship with creation. Knowing when to hold back is is likewise essential in human relations.

Tiferet is balance, beauty, splendor. It is a synthesis between Chesed - loving kindness, giving, and Gevurah - strength displayed by restraint, holding back. The perfect balance between these two opposing but mutually required forces is Tiferet.

Netzach is victory, eternity - endurance. To endure is to be true, steadfast. The victory inherent in Netzach is by virtue of of action and patience.

Hod is frequently translated as glory or splendor - majesty! Hod also speaks of knowledge and acknowledgement, and of gratitude.

The two sefirot of netzach and hod are gateways to prophecy.

Yesod is Foundation. Yesod is the righteous, which is the foundation upon which the world stands. Yesod is the male principle, which by virtue of connecting with Malchut, the seventh of the seven lower sefirot, serves the will of G-d by raising up our world in holiness. Devotion to G-d is “the yoke of the kingdom of heaven.”

Malchut is Kingdom. It is the female principle. Malchut, which can be said to be the perceived reality in which we exist, is the portal through which we can approach G-d. To serve G-d is, therefore, to accept "the yoke of the kingdom of heaven."

The seven sefirot form unique relationships throughout the forty nine days of the counting of the Omer, each day presenting a rung on a ladder of spiritual refinement upon which we can climb and raise ourselves up, preparing ourselves to receive Torah at Sinai on the fiftieth day -Shavuot!
"And you shall count unto you from the morrow after the day of rest [the day following the first day of Passover], from the day that you brought the sheaf of the waving; seven weeks shall there be complete; even unto the morrow after the seventh week shall you number fifty days; and you shall present a new meal-offering unto HaShem." (Leviticus 23:15-16)

"Seven weeks you shall number unto you; from the time the sickle is first put to the standing corn you should begin to number seven weeks. And you shall keep the Feast of Weeks [Shavuot] unto HaShem your G-d after the measure of the freewill-offering of your hand, which you shall give, according as HaShem your G-d blessed you. (Deuteronomy 16:9-10)

Psalm 67 is traditionally recited with the counting of the Omer each evening:

"For the leader; with instrumental music. A psalm. A song.
May G-d be gracious to us and bless us; may He show us favor, selah
that Your way be known on earth, Your deliverance among all nations.
Peoples will praise You, O G-d; all peoples will praise You.
Nations will exult and shout for joy, for You rule the peoples with equity, You guide the nations of the earth. Selah.
The peoples will praise You, O G-d; all peoples will praise You.
May the earth yield its produce; may G-d, our Go-d, bless us.
May G-d bless us, and be revered to the ends of the earth."

Passover

Shabat Shalom Aleykem
And
חג פסח שמח
Happy Passover Everyone

Yesterday was the night of the Betrothal Supper a.k.a “Last supper”, mistakenly many think it to be the same as the passover, but it was not the passover, but the evening of the day of preparation for the passover and unleavened bread feasts.

In the day that קדם (Qadam) precedes מצת Matsah("Unleavened-Bread"), the Tha·lmiyd·iym("disciples") drew near to Yeshuwa and said to him, "Where do you desire us to כינ prepare to eat the פּסח Pecsach("Passover") ? " - Mattiyahuw 26:17

The Towrah of Yehovah Says:
_"And the Yehovah-God spoke to Mosheh and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month(of passover / Abiyb) shall be to you the beginning of months: it shall be THE FIRST MONTH of the YEAR to you."_~ Exodus 12:1

"...IN THE 14th DAY of the 1st month (Abiyb) SHALL BE THE PASSOVER..."~Lev 23:5

"...on the 15th to the 21st day of the 1st month (Abiyb) shall unleavened bread be eaten..." ~ Lev 23:6

"...wave the First fruits from the morrow after the shabat..." ~ Lev 23:10,11

The most Ancient of ancient calenders, that predates all other calenders by over 1500 yrs, is non other than, the biblical Calender designed and established by Yehovah-God Himself. 
It begins at the onset of the earths celestial cycle around the sun, at the very Dawn of the year, when all life "Wakes up" and comes alive, when the animals arouse out of their hibernation, and the plant's seeds sprout out of dormancy, as all nature stirs, and springs back to life, hence the name of the season.
A few days later(sometimes earlier), to the spring equinox, on the eve of the new moon, when the moon synchronises and begins its cycle around the earth, the biblical new moonth and year commences. 

But
The ancient pagan calendars say:
The year begins in the Dead of winter, when life is asleep ("hibernation"), i.e the "Night of the Year", and at the "Midnight of the Year" aka "Winter solstice" (Dec 25th), the longest and Darkest night of the Year, they begun the count to the new year.
In the pagan roman Julian Calendar, (named after Julius Caesar) later adopted by the Roman catholic church and renamed Gregorian calender (after pope Gregory), the new year was celebrated a few days after winter solstice, on the first day of the month of the Roman God Janus.

Throughout the Tanak(scriptures) men who knew their God, the one true God Yehovah _(Adam, Noach, Mosheh, Yeshuwa, etc)_ observed Yehovah’s calender and missed not one of its appointments(Moediym).

As for the Non Jew, what does Yehovah say:
"if a נֵכָר NeKaR Foreigner (non-jew/ *gentile*) dwells among you, and *wants to keep the passover* of  YeHuWaH God; then he shall do it  according to the Appointments(appointed times) of the passover, and according to the ordinances(laws), so shall he do: 
you shall have *one law(Towrah)*, *one appointed time*,  for the נֵכָר NeKaR Foreigner (non-jew/*gentile*), and for him that was born in the land( *Jew*).

In the English translation Genesis 1:14 YeHoVaH says: "the sun and the moon are for signs and for seasons", 
In the original Hebrew TaNaK, YeHoVaH says: "the sun and the moon are AoToT("indicators") signaling the MuWAD•DiYM("Appointed Times") i.e the days of the events of the seven feasts.

Go outside tonight and , lookup and witness the annual fullfilent of YeHoVaH's words in Gen 1:14.
Every year for the last 5991yrs, every PacSaK("passover") and  every cSuKoTh("Tabernacles") the *moon* shines -as this night- at its *full* illumination, in the sky for all the world to see.

HaLeL YeHoVaH !!!.

חג פסח שמח
Happy Passover Everyone

Matzah

16th Aviv 5781

Shalom,

Today is the day after the high Shabbat of Matzah on the 15th Aviv. John 19:31 said, " for that Shabbat was a high one". That is, that shabbat was the annual shabbat and not the weekly Shabbat.

The day after the high Shabbat of Matzah is "Reshit katzirchem" or First Reaping. This has been commonly translated as Firstfruits. But Firstfruits, which is from the Hebrew word "habbikkurim" is only mentioned in relation to Shavuot or the Feast of Weeks. For that was the time of the major harvest of wheat.

On the day after the high Shabbat of Matzah, the "omer resit qesirakem" or the sheaf of the first reaping was given to the priest to be waved before Yahweh Elohim for their acceptance. And in 1 Corinthians 15: 20 it is written, " But now Messiah has been raised from the dead, and has become the first-fruit of those having fallen asleep." For Yeshua HaMashiach had to die to defeat death by the resurrection to life . For the penalty of sin is death (Genesis 2:16). So now, all who died in Yeshua the Messiah can have the hope of resurrection to eternal life. For Yeshua HaMashiach ascended to the heavens and appeared before Yahweh Elohim to intercede or to plead for us, as our Great High Priest.

Beside bringing the sheaf of the first reaping to the priest, they have to bring the burnt offering, the grain offering and the brink offering. But since there is no temple in Yerushalayim, no korbanot or offering can be offered. However, one day the temple will be rebuilt. For Yeshua HaMashiach is coming back to reign as the King and as the Kohen HaGadol. And there cannot be a High Priest without a temple. Once the temple is rebuilt, the korbanot will be reinstated. 

The burnt offering speaks of our total obedience or complete dedication to Yahweh our Elohim. Just as our Master Yeshua HaMashiach obeyed Yahweh Elohim totally and completely, even unto death. The grain offering is to acknowledge that Yahweh our Elohim is the source of our total supply. And the drink offering speaks of joy, of rejoicing in the presence of Yahweh Elohim. For the joy of Yahweh is our strength. 

From the day after the high Shabbat of Matzah, we are to count 7 weeks and the fiftieth day will be Shavuot or the Feast of Weeks. Also commonly called Pentecost, which means fifty in Greek.

So Yeshua HaMashiach died at Pesach on Aviv 14th and not on Friday. He was buried before sundown as after sundown was the beginning of the 7 days Feast of Unleavened Bread, from Aviv 15th to the 21st. And the day after the high Shabbat of Matzah is Reshit Katzirchem or First Reaping. They are three different Moedim.

Happy Feast of First Reaping.

THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN:TAKE NOTES WHO BEARS THE TRUTH SET APART SPIRIT/ RUAKH HA QODESH OF OBEDIENCE AND NOT LAWLESSNESS...AS MANY NAMES HAVE COME AND MISLED FOLKS IN IGNORANCE...

THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN:TAKE NOTES WHO BEARS THE TRUTH SET APART SPIRIT/ RUAKH HA QODESH OF OBEDIENCE AND NOT LAWLESSNESS...AS MANY NAMES HAVE COME AND MISLED FOLKS IN IGNORANCE...

Luke 21 
²⁵ And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
²⁶ Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
²⁷ And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
²⁸ And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Note:(The Sun☉,Moon🌙 And Star✡..Represents RELIGIONS) been faced headon with the reality of truth of salvation which judges the globe as we review ourselves of all we been taught and believed...In this season of PASSOVER as written,some realities from scriptures to digest::

John 8 
³¹ Then said Yahusha to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
³² And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

John 8 
³⁹ They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Yahusha saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
⁴⁰ But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of YHUH : this did not Abraham.
⁴² Yahusha said unto them, If YHUH where your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from YHUH ; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
⁴³ Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
⁴⁴ Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
⁴⁵ And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

“Then spake Yahusha again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”
  — John 8:12 

As it's PASSOVER season...The complete opposite/deception called "goodfriday" to "easter sunday/palm sunday" as RELIGION has taught,can't be referenced from scriptures in details..who authorized these then and taught followers to uphold??? can any observing that throw some light???? Isn't that what the most high YHUH refers to as vain traditions of men????(Mark 7:7-8)

“And they departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the morrow after the passover the children of Yashar'al went out with an high hand in the sight of all the Egyptians.”
  — Numbers 33:3 

“And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that YHUH  commanded Moses, so did the children of Yashar'al.”
  — Numbers 9:5 

“And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Hebrew Yashar'alites , Behold your King!”
  — John 19:14 

 “Now before the feast of the passover, when Yahusha knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.”
  — John 13:1 

“Observe the month of Abib(mid-march to mid april), and keep the PASSOVER unto YHUH thy ALUAHYM: for in the month of Abib YAHUAH  thy ALUAHYM  brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.”
  — Deuteronomy 16:1

 “And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month(Abib:mid-march to mid-april ), the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.”
  — Genesis 8:13 

Reality from as far as the days of Noah which marked new beginnings/crossover.. the shabbaths and rest of commands and instructions were been observed at appointed times/seasons by covenant children Yashar'al...yet folks still overlooking as trumpets continue to sound...when are we to note we must be corrected?? TRUTH HAS/WAS NEVER DONE AWAY WITH OR NAILED TO ANY SO CALLED CROSS..

Matthew 16 
¹ The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
² He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
³ And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
⁴ A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas.  And he left them, and departed.
⁶ Then Yahusha said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

Time To Awake To The Reality,We Been Through Punishment For Disobedience By Religion As The Many Errors/Deceptions Of Religion Implies...Focus On The Lampstand Now,Where Truth Is Embedded...

“And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;”
  — Revelation 1:12
