Passover, Good Friday and Easter

       Pesach or commonly known as Passover commemorates the deliverance of the
Hebrew Nation from slavery in Egypt

 
Heh Samech Pei

     Pei - Sa- cH means to pass-through. In the Book of Exodus. Yahweh instructs 
Moses to command Pharaoh to free the Israelite Nation. A slew of plagues follow,
ending with a final plague whereby the Angel of Death strikes all firstborn in Egypt. 

א  וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-מֹשֶׁה, עוֹד נֶגַע אֶחָד אָבִיא עַל-פַּרְעֹה וְעַל-מִצְרַיִם--אַחֲרֵי-כֵן
שַׁלַּח אֶתְכֶם מִזֶּה:  כְּשַׁלְּחוֹ--כָּלָה, גָּרֵשׁ יְגָרֵשׁ אֶתְכֶם מִזֶּה. 1 

And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Yet one plague more will I bring upon Pharaoh, 
and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence; when he shall let you go, he shall 
surely thrust you out hence altogether.~ Exodus 11:1

   What i find perplexing is Yahweh repeatedly 'hardens' Pharaoh's heart culminating with 
this disaster to Egypt. 
 
       Pesach coincides with Good Friday and Easter. I believe that in the Seder
Meal.Yahweh commands, as a remembrance of deliverance, is in fact Yeshua's command
of remembrance of deliverance, of the World from Condemnation, at the Last Supper  

⁷ Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread arrived, when the Passover lamb is sacrificed.  

⁸ Jesus sent Peter and John ahead and said, “Go and prepare the Passover meal, so we 

can eat it together.” ⁹ “Where do you want us to prepare it?” they asked him. ¹⁰ He replied,
 “As soon as you enter Jerusalem, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow
 him. At the house he enters, ¹¹ say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is  the guest
 room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?’ ¹² He will take you upstairs 
to a large room that is already set up. That is where you should prepare our meal.”   
 ¹³ They  went off to the city and found everything just as Jesus had said, and they 
prepared  the Passover meal there. ¹⁴ When the time came, Jesus and the apostles sat 
down  together at the table.^{[a] 15} Jesus said,  “I have been very eager to eat this Passover'
meal with you before  my suffering begins. ¹⁶ For I tell you now that I won’t eat this meal 
again until its meaning is in the Kingdom of God.” ¹⁷ Then he took a cup of wine and gave 
thanks to God  for it. Then he said, “Take this and share it among yourselves. ¹⁸ For I will 
not drink wine again until the  Kingdom of God has come.” ¹⁹ He took some bread and 
gave' thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying,
 “This is my body, which is given or you. Do this to remember me.”

~ Luke 22:7-19 NLT

Yeshua, calls all whose hearts have hardened. Today, Right Now, Join Me. If you do not
know Yeshua. Ask him to forgive you for your Sins and Ask him to be Your Lord and Saviour.
 


 

Who is the Angel of the Lord?

       In the Old Testament or, as the Hebrews refer to, the Tanakh. There are
many passages that refer to an Unknown Angel. This Angel is referred to as
'an Angel of the Lord'.

In my Hebrew Class, i am currently enrolled, which is affiliated with Hebrew
University(eteacher). This passage has become an enigma to me. Especially,
significant because my Instructor pointed out that it could or may be translated
differently. This is how it is worded in my course text i.e. Tanakh translation.

 וַיִּקְרָא אֵלָיו מַלְאַךְ יְהוָה, מִן-הַשָּׁמַיִם, וַיֹּאמֶר, אַבְרָהָם אַבְרָהָם; 
 וַיֹּאמֶר, הִנֵּנִי. 

And an angel of the Lord called to him from the heavens, and he said,"Abraham,
Abraham!" And he said,"Here I am." ~ Genesis 22:11

My Transliteration

vayiqera  e(la)yn  mal(e)ad (adonai) min-hasasamaim vayomer ab(e)raham
ab(e)raham vayomer hin(e)niy 
~My Apologies to Hebrew Language Speakers i probably sound like a Texan 
from the deep south trying to speak HRH Queens English
  
אֵלָיו מַלְאַךְ
 e(la)yn  mal(e)ad
Loosely translated 'an angel' is contextually out of place, but rather the  
 (la) in context with Lord predicates a definite article 'the' as apposed to 'an'

Why is this important? Simply because contextually it causes confusion. It is 
translated in the Tanakh as 'an angel' because in the context of the passage the angel
suddenly appears in the story and it doesn't seem to be any specific angel. However,
it is grammatically correct to refer to the translation as 'the angel of the Lord'.
Christian Old Testaments do refer to this and many other similar passages translated
as 'the angel of the Lord' 

Is Yeshua Coming Again?

        In 70AD the Roman Emperor Titus  along with 4 Legions besieged and destroyed
Jerusalem. Off the 4 Legions, the famed 10th Legion led by Flavius Silva went onto
break the Siege of Masada. On top of Masada, i saw for myself the remnants of roman
encampments. Masada was the last hold-out against the onslought on the Jewish Nation.

  Yeshua foretold of future events. Solomon's Temple would be-utterly destroyed. He
also mentioned that he would return.

20“And when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then you will know that the time

 of its destruction has arrived. 21Then those in Judea must flee to the hills. Those in 

Jerusalem must get out, and those out in the country should not return to the city. 22For 

those will be days of God’s vengeance, and the prophetic words of the Scriptures will be

fulfilled. 23How terrible it will be for pregnant women and for nursing mothers in those

days. For there will be disaster in the land and great anger against this people. 24They

will be killed by the sword or sent away as captives to all the nations of the world. And 

Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the period of the Gentiles comes to

an end.25“And there will be strange signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And here

on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange

tides.  26 People will be terrified at what they see coming upon the earth, for the

powers in the heavens will be shaken. 27Then everyone will see the Son of Man

coming on a cloud with power and great glory.^f 28So when all these things begin 

to happen, stand and look up, for your salvation is near!” 29Then he gave them 

this illustration: “Notice the fig tree, or any other tree. 30When the leaves come 

out, you know without being told that summer is near. 31In the same way, when you 

see all these things taking place, you can know that the Kingdom of God is near. 32I tell

you the truth, this generation will not pass from the scene until all these things have taken 

place. 33Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear. 34“Watch

out! Don’t let your hearts be dulled by carousing and drunkenness, and by the worries of

this life. Don’t let that day catch you unaware, 35like a trap. For that day will come upon

everyone living on the earth. 36Keep alert at all times. And pray that you might be strong

enough to escape these coming horrors and stand before the Son of Man.”

~ Luke 21 NLT 

The Living and the Dead in Christ will be drawn to him

13And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the

believers who have died^f so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. 14For 

since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when

Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died. 15We tell you

this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet 

him ahead of those who have died. 16For the Lord himself will come down from heaven 

with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of 

God. First, the Christians who have died^h will rise from their graves. 17Then, together 

with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds 

to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever. 18So encourage each 

other with these words.

~ 1 Thessalonians 4 NLT

In the last few decades. I believe that historically we are witnessing weather and geological

disasters of epic proportions. Intensities of the likes never before witnessed. Are they 

anthropomorphic (eg.Pollution) or natural in occurrences due to astronomically

(eg. Sunspot) based events. Either way, Yeshua said, he would return.
