There year is 5998. This is the count from Start of the Written Torah until today April 11, 2017.
How Many Days? For a discussion about the years and days.
Well, that might also be off a little, because we are past Pesach which was started March 30, 2017. According to the Written Torah that was the 14th day of the first month{Exodus 12:’This month shall be unto you the beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you.}, the month of months, as dusk{Exodus 12:6 and ye shall keep it unto the fourteenth day of the same month; and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at dusk.}, a feast unto the LORD{Exodus 12:14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial, and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD; throughout your generations ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.} just before the Night and the start of the 15th day. The 15th day is the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.{Exodus 12:18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at even.}
The point of that paragraph is to show first the according to the LORD, Pesach starts on the 14th day of the first month. So, the year should change now not in the fall, on the turn to the Seventh Month. That is what we Jews have been taught was the time for the ear to change. Our teachings have not followed the Word according to Moses’s Writings. The Rabbinic year is 5778, started September 20, 2017 at dark.
How can this be? Did you not say this is 5998 and they say 5778? What’s up?
Put simply, the Rabbis a long time ago decided that the Hebrews must have been in Egypt prior to the Exodus for only 210 years, even though the Written Torah says: {Exodus 12:40 Now the time that the children of Israel dwelt in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.} AND {Exodus 12:41 And it came to pass at the end of four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the host of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.}
[Note: Once you start changing any document, it becomes very east to keep changing it. But, to change the WORD OF GOD; this has only two possible answers for justification. 1) you assume that there is no . . . . . 2) You must assume that you are better than Moses and that THE LORD does not mind you doing this changing. The first is very common among the ignorant. The second can be seen in the writings that were added to the Written Torah. The worst started 2200 years ago. Like it or not: this sounds to me like the cause of curses in Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28 later in this writing.]
Fulfilling the statement by the GOD Of Abraham: {Genesis 15:13 And He said unto Abram: ‘Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; 14 and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge; and afterward shall they come out with great substance.}
So Exodus 12 is a fulfillment of Genesis 15! However if you cannot stand the Word Of The LORD by the Hand of Moses, you must find a way to disavow the WORD. This is not a new thing, but has transpired over thousands of years.
The first ones to place themselves equal to Moses, were Miriam and Aaron. Moses’s sister and brother, which you will find in Numbers 12. Miriam and Aaron are informed by the LORD GOD, about the special status and relationship HE has with Moses, and how dare they challenge HIS Servant? Punishment was light and short lived. Another group, receiving a much harsher punishment arose and challenged Moses and Aaron for power over the people. That story is Korah and many died by the Word of Moses and the Hand of God in an instant. Yet Moses defended the rebels that were not the leaders. It is better to get the word From the Written Torah.
“Numbers 16:20 And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:
21 ‘Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.’
22 And they fell upon their faces, and said: ‘O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt Thou be wroth with all the congregation?’“
So even when being attacked Moses still defends the people before the ALMIGHTY. Yet, The LORD knows what HE IS DOING and every heart. The first event passes and the next day they come after Moses again.
“Numbers 17:6 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying: ‘Ye have killed the people of the LORD.’
7 And it came to pass, when the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tent of meeting; and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared. . . .
14 Now they that died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides them that died about the matter of Korah.”
There is a point to all of this, but evidence is needed to demonstrate the outcomes and the reasons for the outcomes. So please stay with me just a little more time.
So far we can see that some of us have decided we are the same level as Moses or even better, in that we can change the WORD and it will be okay. What so many have failed to observe is that Even the ALMIGHTY does not change any of HIS WORDS, yet some think we can and it does not matter.
The Book of Deuteronomy is thought to be about the last month of Moses’s life in length of time to deliver. What in Moses’s words has happened, what will happen and why.
Changes to the Law?
“Deuteronomy 4: 1 And now, O Israel, hearken unto the statutes and unto the ordinances, which I teach you, to do them; that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the LORD, the God of your fathers, giveth you.
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.”
“Deuteronomy 13:1 All this word which I command you, that shall ye observe to do; thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.”
We are not to add to nor diminish this WORD. So now we take on the heavy(difficult) part.
In two places we are given the blessings for Keeping the Covenants, Laws and Teachings, followed by the Punishments.
In between the Blessings and the Curses we have this:
“Leviticus 26:14 But if ye will not hearken unto Me, and will not do all these commandments;
15 and if ye shall reject My statutes, and if your soul abhor Mine ordinances, so that ye will not do all My commandments, but break My covenant;”
“Deuteronomy 28:15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee.”
Moses is and has been warning us about our rebellious nature and what is coming. The last series of these actually start in Deuteronomy Chapter 27 and continue in various forms through Chapter 32. Chapter 28 verses 16 through 68, are curses, each getting worse (52 statements of curse).
Leviticus 26 performs this in a slightly different manner in that not as many individual curses are listed instead they show up as:
“Leviticus 26:18 And if ye will not yet for these things hearken unto Me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins.”
AND “21 And if ye walk contrary unto Me, and will not hearken unto Me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.”
AND “23 And if in spite of these things ye will not be corrected unto Me, but will walk contrary unto Me; 24 then will I also walk contrary unto you; and I will smite you, even I, seven times for your sins.”
That is not all, but I think enough so that we get the idea. Each series of punishments get worse than the last event.
For what are we punished?
Because we reject the Covenants, Commandments, Teachings, even THE WORD OF GOD.
We were bad and lost the First Temple which King Solomon did build. From then until 200 years before the next Temple was destroyed, there arose a continual conflict between the Levites:the Priest of Temple; the same family as Moses and Aaron and a group of common people called sages, which later became Rabbis. There is great amounts of information about the later groups, available.
The premises for those not of the Temple Priests, and even some of them are guilty of this; changing the WORD, modifying the meanings, making laws to void the WORD of GOD and/or challenge the validity of the Writings of Moses.
I can write about this information, but not for this writing.
The Story of Korah and his followers is in Number 16 and 17.
All of this sounds to me like the Story of Korah, or even Miriam and Aaron in that they consider themselves equal to or better and more knowing than Moses, of what the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY demands of us.
Here is the point of all this. For about 2200 years all of the Curses in Leviticus 26 and the End of Deuteronomy have been happening to us. Each event being worse that the last event. Nothing, on the scale and shear terror has happened before the Holocaust. For all of that, and 6 Million dead Jews, we have not learned nor are we want to.
What is to learn? How does this end?
Leviticus 26:39 And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies’ lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them. 40 And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their treachery which they committed against Me, and also that they have walked contrary unto Me. . . . .
Deuteronomy 30:1 And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt bethink thyself among all the nations, whither the LORD thy God hath driven thee,
2 and shalt return unto the LORD thy God, and hearken to His voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul;
3 that then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the peoples, whither the LORD thy God hath scattered thee.
4 If any of thine that are dispersed be in the uttermost parts of heaven, from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from thence will He fetch thee. . . . .
Before this world ends, a remnant will return and fulfill those words. Those that lived the 1940’s events did not return to the LORD. Strangely fulfilling a prophesy:
“Ezekiel 14:22 And, behold, though there be left a remnant therein that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters; behold, when they come forth unto you, and ye see their way and their doings, then ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it;
23 and they shall comfort you, when ye see their way and their doings, and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord GOD.’ ”
What remains: We are going to do it again, worse than the last time. Much worse! This time it will be earth ending in scale and result. It seems that a remnant could be as small as one.
Why one?
“Exodus 32:9 And the LORD said unto Moses: ‘I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people.
10 Now therefore let Me alone, that My wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of thee a great nation.’”
Because in order not to totally extinguish the Children Of Jacob, the LORD declared that HE could build a mightier nation with just Moses. No I don’t believe that it will be only one. See: “One Of A City”
So we have lots of evidence and many sources, declaring their vision and HIS WORDS regarding the world and HIS people. I find it cause for contemplation.
The answer to the question: “Where Was The LORD Our GOD During the Holocaust?”, is now simple. HE IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE, From before HE SAID “Let there be light” Beyond the end of all light, HE IS. THE LIVING GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB. HE IS waiting for those that will return to HIM and HIS LAWS, and HIS WORD.
So how did all the terror happen? Our actions did it. We prevented HIM from saving all of us, because we let ourselves be turned away from the LIGHT. Isaiah says it very well.
“Isaiah 59:1 Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save, neither His ear heavy, that it cannot hear;
2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid His face from you, that He will not hear.
3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue muttereth wickedness.
4 None sueth in righteousness, and none pleadeth in truth; they trust in vanity, and speak lies, they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.”
I personally do not want to go through the last events of punishment(Last Day), so I will trust the ALMIGHTY, and pray that others might also.
IT is to our benefit to HEARKEN until the LIVING GOD OF ISRAEL, and to our pain and shame to do otherwise.
My prayer is that The LORD grant you eyes that see, ears that hear and an understanding heart, then you return unto HIM soon!(Isaiah 6: 9 And He said: ‘Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.’)
