Destination Yisra'el: Temples of Solomon and Herod

In part one of this series we became acquainted with the fascinating document, Emeq HaMelekh and the roles of five worthy men, Shimur Ha Levi, Haggai (Chaggai the Prophet), Zechariah son of Iddo, Zedekiah (Zidkiyah), Hezekiah (Hizkiyah), Hilkiyah, Ezra the Cohen, and Baruch son of Neriah the Scribe for Jeremiah who were commissioned on a secret mission to hide the treasures of Solomon’s Temple.

Under the command of King Josiah, the Prophet Jeremiah as recorded in the Book of Maccabees secreted, with these Jewish revolutionaries for the G-d of Abraham, the museum archives of the Nation of Israel. These treasures possessions were stored in Zedekiah’s Grotto or Cavern under the Temple Mount (Hiram As-Sharif) below the Temple of Solomon (Beit HaMikdash). There the Sanctuary of the Congregation (Mishkhan) described in the Torah, the Ark of the Covenant, the Menorah, the Altar of Incense were stored in times of security.

The Copper called Qalal (Kalal) was used the Store the Ashes of the Red Heifer

These were taken to a safe haven several miles from Jerusalem in the Valley of Achor, near the caves of the Essene community of Qumran famed for the Dead Sea Scrolls and in site of Mount Nebo.

This site was accessible by the extensive tunnels that extended from what is now known as Solomon’s (Schlomo’s) Quarries or Stables. Now in the Emeq HaMelekh, a group of Mishnahs, we can read the rest of the story of how the vast treasures that was saved for the future atonement of the chosen people of G-d at the time of the end.

Vendyl Jones and his Research Institute and the Temple Institute were prominent in the quest to find the Qalal, a pottery jug containing the Ashes of the Red Heifer, the Wilderness Sanctuary (Mishkhan) and the Ark of the Covenant.

This chapter we will be introduced to the discoveries of the of the Copper Scroll (Luach Nehoshet), the Anointing Oil (Shemen Afarsimon) which was used the anoint the prophets and the kings, the Temple Incense (Pitum haQetoret) and the special Incenses Spices prepared by the noted Jewish Avtinas family for the Jewish Temple.

The Qalal (Kalal) with Ashes of the Red Heifer still awaits discovery, for it was used according to the Seder Ha Olam during the dedication of the Sanctuary Tabernacle and without it the waters of purification needed to cleanse and purify a new Jewish Temple would not be possible.

Here the story of the ten red heifers that were to be killed before the time of the messiah (Maschiach) and the nine red heifers that were sacrifices for a sin offering between Sinai and the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE will be told.

It was the officiating priests, Ezra the Cohen, Shemon HaTzaddik, Yochanan High Priest, Hananel Egyptian, Ishmael Piabi who took the heifers ‘outside the camp’, across the Kidron Valley and over the Bridge of the Red Heifer to the Miphkad anointed altar on the Mount of Olives in the days before the destruction of the Temple of Solomon.

Whereas in Christian theology, the Prince of David, Yehoshua (Jesus), who was called “The Nazarene” was adapted into Roman Catholic theology as the Passover Pesach lamb, the Prince Yehoshua was also identified as an anti-type of the heifer that was slain or executed on a tree according to the Essene traditions as a sin offering on the Day of Atonement.

Now we will see that the extensive Jewish temple ritual of the burning of the red heifer was part of a literal Jewish drama, enacted every year since the days of King Solomon’s Temple in exquisite literal detail. It was also prophetically reenacted by the illegal nighttime trial of the Prince of David, Yehoshua, by the corrupt Sadducees who sat in judgment within the Sanhedrin in the Chamber of Hewn Stones.

This included a walk through the eastern gate of the temple, across the Kidron Valley where history has documented was executed on a tree as a final reenacting of the sacrifice of the red heifer on the Miphkad altar on the Mount of Olives.

Omens prior to the destruction of the temple by the Roman forces occurred during the forty years after the execution drama of Yehoshua when:

The massive door called Hekel opened on its own by supernatural forces;
The crimson cord also turned white as a portrayed in the aborted attempt to sacrifice the tenth red heifer.
With the discovery of the mikvaot baths for the high priest above the Gihon Springs and the possibility of Solomon’s temple as being erected at this site, we will consider that the tenth red heifer was selected to be sacrificed during the Pesach ceremonies yet according to Essene traditions, the execution of the red heifer was aborted when the “red heifer” instead gave birth to a lamb.
Type met anti-type on the temple mount as the true Pesach lamb, in the human body of the one called “The Nazarene” death drama of the death called Prince Yehoshua, the son of the Prince of David Yosef (Joseph), who was the brother of James the Just, in Essene traditions as Joseph of Arimathea.

Mishnah 2

These are the holy vessels and the vessels of the Temple that were in Jerusalem and in every place. They were inscribed by Shimur HaLevi and his companions, on a "Luach Nehoshet" (Copper Plate/Sheet), with all the Vessels of the Holy of Holies that Shlomo son of David made. And together with Shimur were Hizkiyahu, Zidkiyah, Haggai the Prophet, and Zechariah, son of Berachiah, son of Ido the Prophet.

The Copper Scroll called the Luach Nehoshet in this Mishnah, we now can portray in living reality as we see the five Temple treasury guardians working together laboriously as they inscribing on what is called the “Luach Nehoshet” or the brazen, brass or copper sheet or plate (Strong’s 5178 - nekj-o-sheth). This is our strongest evidence of the origin of the Copper Scroll found at Qumran.

The Copper Scroll by the West Semitic Research Project

The picture is now beginning to unfold. Zechariah and his famed end of times Oracles, with Haggai and his five exhortations which encouraged the speedy rebuilding of the temple of Zerubabbel, along with Zidkiyah(Zedekiah), the 1^st civil leader of the newly returned Jerusalem community.

They with Hizkiyahu (Hezekiah) and Shimur HaLevi were all co-conspirators and accomplices in the secret spiritual and religious mission to preserve the sacred vessels of the Mishkan (Sanctuary) which included the articles of temple service in the renown Temple of Solomon (Shlomo)

The Legacy of the Copper Scroll

The Copper Scroll was part of the collection of the Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in May 1952 in cave Qvj3 in the caves of Qumran. It was first translated in 1956-57 after the archeologists designed a way to cut the copper sheets that had been rolled up into two copper rolls. Within the Copper Scroll it described the location of where the Qalal (the copper urn that hold the ashes of the red heifer) and the Temple treasures are hidden including possible cryptic references to the Ark of the Covenant, the Altar of Incense and other sacred furnishings of the Mishkhan, the Wilderness Sanctuary of the Congregation hid by the Prophet Jeremiah.

Yet most researchers believed that this scroll either was a forgery, or was part of the temple treasures of Herod’s Temple that were secreted away prior to its destruction from the Roman forces in 68-70 CE. So, the Copper Scroll lay ignored for over twenty years in the Museum of Amman, Jordan.

As M.A. Ben-Luria stated: “…the validity and authenticity of the Copper Scroll would remain in question until one single item mentioned in the scroll is discovered. Once something is found at Qumran that was listed among the 64 designated items and places in the Copper Scroll, the scroll’s validity would finally be unquestioned.”

The Copper Urn held the Ashes of the Red Heifer along and the “Pottery Juglet of the Shemen Afarsimon” held the Holy Anointing Oil

The Holy Anointing Oil (Shemen Afarsimon)

And so, it was. In April 1988, the Vendyl Jones Research Institute in collaboration with Professor Yoseph Patrich, Benny Arubas and Benny Agur of the Hebrew University made an astounding discovery.

A juglet of the Shemen Afarsimon, the Holy Anointing Oil was discovered in Cave 13 (Jordan’s Cave #24). The Pharmaceutical Department of Hebrew University tested the substance inside the small juglet and gave their scholarly verification that it was the Shemen Afarsimon of Psalms 133.

Psalms 133 - “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments: as the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing even life for evermore.”

This Anointing Oil was used by the Prophet Eli to anoint King Saul and later King David and Solomon, but also the High Priests of the Temple of the Lord and the Prophets. This oil was also used as a fragrance that was poured on the oblation to provide a ‘sweet smelling savor’ on the sacrifices.

The Holy Temple Incense (Pitum haQetoret)

According to the Jewish Torah scholars; in particular the Jewish Kabbalists, who write about the supernatural remedy called the segula which meant the “supernatural remedy” concerning the reading of the incense offering in front of the Mantle of the Most Holy Place. These august moments in temple service enactment spoke of the special benefits it brings upon the one who reads it from the parchment in the presence of the Holy One of Israel.

Our Torah scholars and, particularly, the kabbalists teach us about the segula (supernatural remedy) of reading the incense offering, and of the benefits it brings, especially when read from parchment.

Anyone who reads the scriptural account of the incense offering is as if he offered the incense in the Holy Temple himself. Its reading has the same power as when Aharon, the High Priest, used the (secret of the) incense offering to stop the plague and the Angel of Death.

The secret had to have been revealed to Moshe for a Heavenly Voice asked, 'Who revealed this secret to my children?'." Therefore, Moshe received the secret of the incense offering at the time of the Giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai from the Prosecuting Angel and passed it down to his brother, Aharon, the High Priest.Since then, we have this knowledge from generation to generation.

The recitation of the incense offering from a text written in Torah script is a segula for merit, wealth, and success in all endeavors. (Caf HaChaim-Chapt. 132, Sec. 23)

Also within the Copper Scroll, is documentation of the Holy Incense that was used to by the priests to sprinkle on the Altar of Incense in the Holy Temple. On April 8, 1992, the excavation team of Vendyl Jones Research Institute, was searching the strata in the Cultural Dome of the ‘hidden north entrance’ at the Cave of the Column”, when Glenda Hurst, a volunteer called out to Larry Banks, “Come over here and look at this. It’s some kind of red stuff that is very different.” The taste test and the smell test revealed an organic compound with a hint of cinnamon in it.

The samples, that were sent to Dr. Marvin Antelman with the Weizman Institute and Ya’acov Arkin at the Israel Institute of Geology, both determined that the substance was indeed organic, for the "density indicates that the material which is lighter than water is excluded from the category of red soil or red minerals......also the high percentage of ash is typical of plant source." In all, it was identified that this substance contained eight of the eleven spices present in the Pitum haQetoret (Temple Incense), all in a highly refined state.

This was again confirmed again at the laboratories at Bar-Ilan University. With the addition of two additional inorganic ingredients, Karsina Lye and Sodom Salt, which was found near-by in the same cave, ready to be mixed with the spices, the ingredients of the Holy Incense, the haQetoret, would be mixed to be used in the Temple services according to the Torah and the Talmud.

Later and more exhaustive testing and analysis by Dr. Terry Hutter, a paleo-botanist, who stated that not just eight ingredients, but ‘the red-brown spice sample is composed of nine different and unique plants. The plants are recognizable both by pollen and organic maceral types.” These plants types include.

Three kinds of Cinnamon
Saffron
Balsam
Myrrh
Galganum
Cassia
Frankincense

There on the cave floor a total of eight hundred pounds of spices (600 kilos) were waiting to be mixed and transported to the Temple. This quantity of spices is significant because it is equivalent to the amount of spice used in one year of daily sacrifices in the Temple. In the Torah, only four ingredients are listed for the haQetoret, whereas the Mishnah lists eleven ingredients plus Sodom Salt and Karcina Lye.

It is also in the Mishnah that records that the Avtinas family were given charge and custody of the secret recipe of compounding the pharmaceutical mix of these spices and ingredients. The has been recorded that the fragrance of the haQetoret was so powerful that when it was being mixed, one could smell it clear over to Jericho, twelve miles north of Qumran.

Qalal, the Copper Urn that contained the Ashes of the Red Heifer

In March 2002, in a farm in Galilee, an Israeli rancher had a cow that gave birth to a red heifer that was born without blemish that is no white hairs on her body and face. After the heifer was a month old the Temple Institute was contacted and Rabbi Menachem Makeover and Rabbi Chaim Richman to inspect her. There they found this young heifer to be kosher and a potential candidate to become the 10^th red heifer in Hebrew history.

The world press was abuzz with the news of the birth of a pure red heifer in the Land of Israel. The orthodox community of Israel was all astir, and the topic of discussion was when was the era of the Last Days and the 10^th Red Heifer about to begin?

In the Siddur, called the Four Parshiot in the Parah, it states:

Four Parshiot in the Parah - “The hiding place of its (the red heifer) ashes will be revealed” and in the Mishnah, Tractate Parah it states that the tenth red heifer that will be burned will be done in the time when the Messiah (Moschiach) comes and restores a new Temple for His people.”

This young heifer was only a month old, yet within two to three years, if no more than three white or black hairs are found on her body, the orthodox Jews would have sufficient reason to take possession of the Temple Mount, where most of them feel the Temple of Solomon had been built and begin the construction of a new temple there.

The reports of the birth of a potential red heifer, though genetically rare in this age of advanced genetic knowledge and artificial insemination, are becoming more frequent.

According to an article in The Mid-East Dispatch, issue 237, the 16th of March 1997, that a six-month old red heifer had been born to a black and white cow and a dun colored bull, in the religious kibbutz, Kfar Hassidim, near the northern Israeli port of Haifa. This heifer called Molly, was also declared kosher, but within a year blemishes and imperfections were noted.

This arcane piece of Biblical knowledge on the purification rites of the red heifer has left the Christian community puzzled and the Islamic community in consternation.

In the beginning of the Israelite nation, Moses (Moshe) was standing on Mount Sinai and was given not only the two tablets of the Decalogue engraved on stone, but the Written Torah in which the letters (Words) were given one by one by the Lord of hosts to Moses for him to write down.

The Red Heifer in 2002

This was the Written Torah of the Hebrews which included the first five books of the Hebrew Scripture called the Pentateuch, which he was to write down as dictated to by the Lord of hosts.

On the other hand, the Lord spent 120 days, 40 days on three separate ascents by Moses, in which he revealed to Moses how these ordinances and commandments of the Lord were to be put or lived out in human life. This was called the Oral Torah.

The Mishkhan, the Tabernacle of the Congregation, built in the wilderness by the skills given to noble craftsman, called Bezaleel under the supervision of Moses, was dedicated according to the Seder Ha Olam on the 1^st day of the 1^st month (Nissan) in the second year of the Exodus (Jewish year 2449 from Adam).

The first day of services was completed and according to the Seder Olam, on the second day, Moses was instructed by the Lord of hosts to have the priest Eliezar, the priest, take a perfect red cow, under the age of three and who had not had a yoke put to her neck, and lead her out of the camp of Israel into the wilderness and slaughter her.

Numbers 19: 1-8 -

19:1 - “And the Lord spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,

19:2 - “This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord hath commanded saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke:

19:3 - ‘And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, that he may bring her forth without the camp, and one shall slay her before his face:

19:4 - ‘And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times:

19:5 - “And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:

19:6 - ‘And the Priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.

19:7 - “Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the even….

19:8 - “And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even.

19:9 - ‘And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel (“as a keepsake for Israel’) for a water of separation: it is a purification for sin.

19:10 - “And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a statute forever.”

Holy Anointing Oil (Shemen Afarsimon

There in the wilderness that is outside the camp of the Israelites the red heifer was then burned with a mixture of cedar, hyssop and scarlet covering. Here the cedar, oil from the juniper bush in the Sinai desert, would cause a skin irritation, which would stimulate the applicant to vigorously rub the solution in their hands. The hyssop oil was known for its antiseptic properties, as Hyssop oil contained 50 percent carvacrol, and an antifungal and antibacterial medicinal agent.

The Preparation of the Ashes of the Red Heifer

Note carefully that we say burned, as this demonstrates that whole body of the heifer, even the blood and organs were burned to ashes. The ashes would then be made into a liquid paste and used in the water of purification that a Jew or Israelite must undergo in a ceremonial purification cleansing before they can enter the Temple complex.

The ashes were then gathered by another priest who was recognized to be ritually ‘clean’ and kept in a vessel in a place outside the camp of Israel that was also kept ritually ‘clean’. After that a small fragment of these ashes could be placed in water in a vessel or thrown upon a body of water. How do we know if this water was purified? According to the rabbinic tradition, if the surface of the water became disturbed when the ashes touched the water, then purification had occurred.

The Nine Red Heifers in Jewish History

G-d instructs Moshe to Prepare Anointing Oil and Incense for Ordination of the Kohanim

Skilled Artisans, Betzalel and Oholiav, are Assigned to Make Objects for the Kohanim and the Mishkan

According to the historical records kept by the Jews in their Mishnah, a total of nine perfectly red heifers have been burned. In the Mishnah 5, called the Tractate Parah, these nine heifers burned in the sacrificial history of the Israelites and the Jews have been recorded.

“The first heifer that was burned was under the supervision of Moses on that 2^nd day of Nissan in the second year from the Exodus.
The second heifer was burned under the supervision of Ezra;
Two were burned by Shimon Ha Tzaddik;
Two were burned by Yochanan, the High Priest, the seventh by Eliehoenai, the son of He-Kof, the eighth by Hanamel, the Egyptian,
The ninth by Ishmael, son of Piabi and the
Tenth will be burned in the time of the Maschiach (Messiah).”

In this same tractate, Mishnah 5, it uncovered the conditions that would be vital to purify the future generations of Jews and Israelites at the end of times. The oracles of G-d state over and over that the chosen people were to be a Holy People and a Holy Nation. The rites of purification were therefore applicable not only to the people of G-d but also to the Land. For the rites of purification to exist in the End of Times, the ashes of the tenth heifer must be mingled with the ashes of the previous nine heifers.

In the days of the first and the second temples, the ashes were divided into three parts. The first lot of ashes was kept by the Levites who guarded the entrance of the Temple. The second lot of ashes was kept on Anointment Hill, now called the Mount of Olives. It was on that sacred mount that the prophets and the kings were anointed.

It was also on that site that the priest would be purified in a ceremony that was deemed necessary before he could burn the body of another red heifer. The third lot was placed in the chail, a portion of the wall approximating the Women’s Gallery of the Temple.

Yet a puzzle still exists. If you will notice, from the time of Moses and the dedication of the Sanctuary of the Congregation at Mount Sinai until the fall and destruction of the Temple of Solomon, the ashes of only one red heifer was used in the purification of the priests and the temple.

This suggests that the Wilderness Tabernacle (the Mishkhan) until the end of the days of Solomon stayed in a state of ritual purity in which very little of the ashes of the red heifer had to be used.

After the death of Solomon and the split of the House of Judah from the House of Israel, the Temple services still remained a strong moral force in the Land of Judah, until the days of King Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, a king with such evil in his heart that he sold the physical and moral fiber of the Kingdom of Judah to the Devil.

2 Chron. 33:2-4,5-7,9 (parts)- “He did evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the abomination of the nations whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel. For he rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; he raised up altars for the Baals, and made wooden images; and he worshiped all the host of heaven and served them. …he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord. And he caused his sons to pass through the fire in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom; he practiced soothsaying, used witchcraft and sorcery, and consulted mediums and spiritists.

He did much evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger. He even set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of G-d….so Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitance of Jerusalem to do more-evil than the nations whom the Lord had destroyed before the children of Israel”

It was the reforms with the subsequent purification and dedication of the Temple, plus bringing the Ark of the Covenant from its hiding place in the bowels of Solomon’s Grotto a thousand feet under the Temple by the twelve-year old King Josiah, it appeared that the ashes of Moses’ Red Heifer were almost fully used up. At the end of Josiah’s reign, the Prophet Jeremiah advised that the Ark and the Wilderness Sanctuary be hidden permanently.

After the return of the Jewish exiles from Babylon, the second Red Heifer was sacrificed, apparently to rededicate the new Zerubbabel’s Temple to the Lord. During the years from 520 BCE (350 BCE by Jewish yearly calculations), until 70 CE when Temple of Herod was ransacked and destroyed, eight more heifers were slaughtered.

This suggests that from 1585 BCE to 538 BCE, over one thousand years, ritual purity was maintained within the Sanctuary and the Temple complexes, yet for the last 420 years until the destruction of Herod’s Temple, there was a constant and repetitive breech in the rites of purification of the priests and the temple as given by the L-rd of hosts to Moses.

According to the traditions of the Jews, the hierarchy of the temple priests became more and more aware that the sacrificial system within the temple was corrupted and not accepted in the eyes of the Lord of hosts.

Note what the Talmud states occurred at the time of the of the execution of the Prince of David, Yehoshua by the High Priests of the House of Ananias and the corrupt Sadducees of that era.

Shabbat 15a - “Forty years before the destruction of Jerusalem, the Sanhedrin was banished (from the Chamber of Hewn Stones in the Temple) and sat in the trading Station (in the Temple to the east of the former Chamber)”

Yoma 39b - “Our rabbis taught: During the last forty years before the destruction of the Temple, the lot (‘For the Lord’) did not come up in the right hand; nor did the crimson colored strap become white; nor did the western most light (the three-lamp shaft with seven lamps each on the right side of the Menorah nearest the Holy of Holiest) shine; and the doors of the Hekel (the large doors into the Holy Place) would open by themselves.”

What has been little revealed, was the genealogical evidence that the High Priest of King Herod’s Temple in the last three decades of the BCE era was Yehoshua III, the third High Priest of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem.

The High Priest Yehoshua III, as genealogical history has portrayed, was the father of three daughters; Jane (Joanna), Elizabeth and Hanna. As the newly reigning high priest, it was the Zadokian High Priest, Boethus the Zadokian, who presided as the “Nasi” or the President of the Great Sanhedrin at this momentous moment of time in 37 BCE. We know so little of this priest called Boethus, except as the Patriarch of the House of Boethus, the descendants of his seven sons virtually controlled the office of the high priest in Jerusalem for almost a hundred and eighty years. Here was the testimony of Flavius Josephus when he wrote:

Flavius Josephus – “There was one Simon, a citizen of Jerusalem, the son of one Boethus, a citizen of Alexandria, and a priest of great note there

In the genealogies of the “High Priest of Israel” by Davidian genealogist, David Hughes, Boethus was a Zadokian descendant, the 31^st in descent from Zadok, the high priest of King David.

This is of special note, because it was the Lord of hosts that specifically noted to King David and his son, King Solomon that it would be the High Priest Zadok and his descendants who would carry the hereditary responsibility to be the chosen in descent of the House of Aaron to preside in the honored position as the High Priests of Israel.

They were to represent the national consciousness of the Israelites and the Jewish people in the sacred services at Pesach (Passover and the Festival of First Fruits), Pentecost, Yom Kippur (Day of Judgment), and Succot (Festival of Tabernacles).

The Miphkad Altar

The altar upon which the Red Heifer would be burned is called by the rabbis as the Miphkad Altar. In Nehemiah 3 we see the historical description of the reparations done to the gates of Jerusalem. The Miphkad Gate was one of the gates into the city which was near the corner of the city near the Sheep Gate.

Nehemiah 3:31-32 - “After him repaired Malchiah the goldsmith’s son unto the place of the Nethinims, and of the merchants, over against the Gate Miphkad, and to the going up of the corner. And between the going up of the corner unto the sheep gate repaired the goldsmiths and the merchants.”

The Hebrew meaning of Miphkad is ‘appointed’, which is also referenced in Ezekiel 42, which talks of the bullock being burned as the sin offering at the appointed place (Miphkad).

Ezekiel 43:21 - “Thou shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed place (Miphkad) of the house, without the sanctuary.”

Combining the burning of a cow (bullock) as the sin offering at an appointed place (Miphkad) which was outside the sanctuary, what we can now see combines all the elements of that moment of time in history when a Prince of the genealogical descendants of Kings David and Solomon, the Prince of David Yehoshua was executed by hanging on a tree, according to the testimony of the Essenes.

This was a prophetic representation of a “sin offering” representing symbolically all the sins of the world. According to some scholars was crucified on a ‘tree’ on the Mount of Olives, without the sanctuary, at an appointed place designated by the temple priests and the Romans. This execution was representation of the era of the future which included the future purification of the saints and remnant of the chosen ones of Israel who were believed with all their hearts that the Prince of David Yehoshua was the literal and symbolic messiah of their generation during the Temple of Herod in the 1^st century CE.

The Red Heifer and Yehoshua the Prince - the Type/Antitype of the Sin Offering

The Temple Mount in Jerusalem

The author of the Book of Hebrews makes an interesting analogy between the Red Heifer and the Prince of David called Rabbi Yehoshua:

Hebrews 13:9-13 - “We have an altar from which those who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat. For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the gate.

Therefore, Yehoshua the Prince also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside, the gate. Therefore, let us go forth to him, outside the camp, bearing His reproach.”

As all the other offerings in the temple services were also utilized as food for the priests and Levites, the bodies of the bullock, goat and the red heifer were to be burnt with their whole bodies reduced to ashes.

Four Types of Sin Offerings

There were four types of sin offerings. Three of these were killed or slaughtered at the slaughtering arenas within the temple proper, “before the presence of the Lord.” (Lev 4:4)

All three had their blood sprinkled seven times before the Inner Curtain which veiled the Holy of Holiest. All three sin offerings had their bodies carried out of the camp to be burned to ashes on the altar outside the camp.

The first sin offering was a young bullock which was slain for the sins of the high priest. (Lev. 4:3-12) and the final burning was in a clean place outside the camp. The second type of sin offering was also a young bullock which was slain for the corporate community of Israelites, the entire assembly (Lev. 3:13-21)

The ritual separation of the fat and certain organs was the same as the first bullock. The third sin offering was on the Day of Atonement in which a young bullock and a goat were carried outside the camp and burned in the entire carcass of the animals. (Lev. 16:27)

The holiest of all the sin offerings, was the fourth sin offering, the Red Heifer. The red heifer, offered as a sin offering for purification of the collective congregation of Israel, was slaughtered according to the dictates of the Lord of hosts to Mosshe outside the camp of Israel. (Num. 19:3)

Unlike the other sin offerings, the Red Heifer was walked over to the Altar on the Mount of Olives and there burnt in its entirety. The difference of the red heifer and the other sin offerings is that the other three offering were for absolving sin; giving the recipient freedom from sin or in a sense; “salvation”. On the other hand, the ashes of the red heifer were to bring “holiness”.

The blood of the red heifer was sprinkled outside the camp, the body burned to ashes and then the ashes through some mystical process that left even the wisdom of Solomon bewildered, bestowed holiness and purification with the pure spring water as its was sprinkled not only over people, but over the land.

They purified the temple with it. They could purify the entire city of Jerusalem if needed or the entire Land of Israel. Let us let Alfred Edersheim explain the deep meaning of the Red Heifer:

Alfred Edersheim - “As the first manifestation of sin which separates man from G-d, defilement by the dead required a sin-offering, and the ashes of the red heifer are expressly so designated in the words; It is a “sin-offering.” (Num. 9:17) But it differs from all other sin-offerings.

The sacrifice was to be a pure red color; one “upon which never came a yoke; and a female. All other sin-offerings for the congregation being males….But what distinguished it even more from all the others was, that it was a sacrifice once for all, (at least so long as its ashes lasted); that its blood was sprinkled, not on the altar, but outside the camp towards (westward) the sanctuary; and that it was wholly burnt, along with cedar wood, as the symbol of imperishable existence, hyssop, as the of purification from corruptions, and “scarlet” which from its color as the emblem of life.

Thus; the sacrifice of “Highest Life”, was brought as a sin-offering, and, so as far as possible, once for all, was in its turn accompanied by the symbols of Imperishable existence, freedom from corruption, and fullness of life, so as yet more to intensity its significance. But even this is not all.

The gathered ashes with running water were sprinkled on the third and seventh days on that which was to be purified. Assuredly, if death meant “the wages of sin,” this purification pointed in all its details, to “the gift of G-d,” which is “eternal life” through the sacrifice of Him in whom is the fullness of life.” (The Temple, Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., Michigan. 1987, pages 348-349)

The High Priest was forbidden to offer the sacrifice of the Red Heifer. In the same manner and in the same location, only Yehoshua, the son of G-d, and as our High Priest, could offer His life as a ‘sin offering’ for the entire planet would also be sacrificed ‘outside the gate” or “outside the camp”.

This strongly suggests that the place where the red heifer was slain was also near the site where Yehoshua was executed. This was the Holiest area surrounding the city of Jerusalem. (Berakoth 9:5)

“Outside the Camp”

Inside the Southern Half of the Chamber of Hewn Stones where the Great Sanhedrin met in Session

What does “outside the camp” mean? In Numbers 15:35-36, it is clear that the death penalty under the Torah was to be administered “outside the camp.” Yet what were the limits or how far away from the camp of the Israelites was this to be?

As the children of Israel were moving throughout the wilderness, they kept a certain distance between the Wilderness Tabernacle and the encampment or their places of habitation according to their clans each with their standards and ensigns. (Numbers 2).

When they were to follow the Ark of the Covenant around the city of Jericho, this ‘distance’ that they were to keep away from the Ark of the Covenant was specified.

Joshua 3:3 - “When you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your G-d, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then you shall set out from your place and go after it. Yet there shall be a space between you and it (the ark”, about two thousand cubits by measure. Do not come near it (ark)…”

So, they needed 2000 cubits or 3000 feet or 1000 yards in order to maintain the sanctity of the ark and for the preservation of their own lives. According to the Hebrew law, the place of residence for an individual, whether a tent or a house, would extend out from its abode for 1000 yards. If the place of dwelling was in a corporate site such as a walled village, a Levitical town or walled city, then the city limits was 1000 yards from the outer walls of the village, town or city.

The House of the Lord, wherein rested the Holy of Holiest and the Ark of the Covenant, was the symbolic dwelling place of the Lord of hosts. To be “outside the camp” or “outside the gate”, it would have to be over 1000 yards (2000 cubits) from the Temple Proper or the residence of G-d. During the days of the 1^st century Jewish messiah of its era called “The Nazarene” the Great Sanhedrin, who governed from the Chamber of Hewn Stones, which was on the left side of the Holy of Holiest facing east, or the north side of the Temple proper, used the same calculations to determine the corporate city limits of the city of Jerusalem.

Since the court of the Sanhedrin stood as the center, a radius of 1000 yards determined the limits of their encampment. Outside this perimeter was “outside the camp”. As such the traditional sites of Jeremiah’s Grotto, the site of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher and a small hill north-east of the Damascus Gate would be excluded from this definition of “outside the camp” and thereby excluded as potential sites for the execution of the crucifixion of the Prince of David, Yehoshua Ha David.

Symbols and Types of the Sin Offering

The Hebrew author takes it a bit further. He recognized that the Torah (Law) was but a shadow of the future saving power to be brought by the son of G-d. Jesus, as the ultimate ‘sin offering’ for the world would give His body to pay the penalty of sin in order that sin could be eradicated forever from this planet and this universe. Yes, Yehoshua, as the Living Torah, would fulfill all these shadow and types imbedded in the sanctuary services.

Hebrews 10:11-13 - “And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sin. But his Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of G-d, from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool. (Ps. 110:1, Eph.1:22, ‘the last enemy that will be destroy is death” 1 Cor 15:26)

This typology was inclusive of the both the bullocks and the goats which were used as sin offerings and the red heifer which was used for purification and holiness (from sin or defilement) of the Levites and the temple premises.

Hebrews 9:13-14: “For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh, how much more shall the blood of the Messiah, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to G-d, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the Living G-d.”

The early Hebrew Nazorean Ecclesia, remembering that in this era there were no Christians, no bishops, no popes, and leadership of the Hebrew Nazorean Ecclesia believers recognized the symbolic relationship between “The Nazarene” and the Red Heifer as depicted in the Letter of Barnabas (8:2) written about 90 CE which stated, “The calf “Red Heifer” is Yehoshua; the sinful men offering it are those who led him to the slaughter.”

The Temple Ritual of the Red Heifer

The whole temple services which revolved around the sin offerings and the ashes of the Red Heifer has been studied extensively by the late Ernest Martin. In his book, Secrets of Golgotha, the forgotten history of Prince Yehoshua’s execution, (ASK Publications, Alhambra, CA. 1988, 0 945657 77 3.), he documents in the Jewish records that describe the ritual of preparation of the ashes of the red heifer.

In the Mishnah, the early Jewish records describe the positioning of the Temple as facing east, with the Holy of Holiest on the western end of the temple premises. Note that this is the same pattern of the Garden of Eden, in which Adam and Even approached G-d by traveling west and were cast out of the garden by being sent out of the Eastern Gate.

Here we see the Lord of hosts residing in His residence, and He is envisioned as looking from His dwelling place or “Throne” in the Holy of Holiest facing east towards the Mount of Olives.

The Giant Menorah is standing on His right hand side, with all the symbolisms of the Haredi Prince of David, Rabbi Yehoshua, as the “Light of the World” standing on the right hand side of the HaShem our “Father” and as we have noted above, after the execution of Yehoshua, the three lamp poles on the western end of the Menorah, or those nearest the Holy of Holiest, failed to give light, as though the Light or the Glory of the Shekinah, which Yehoshua was a reflection, was extinguished (executed) from the Inner Sanctum of the Holy Place.

During the special ceremony of slaughtering the red heifer, which we need to be reminded occurred only nine times between Sinai and the destruction of the temple in 70 CE, the red heifer was led out of the eastern gate, across the doubled tiered arched bridge called the Bridge of the Red Heifer, to the Mount of Olives and led up to an altar near the summit of the mount. (Middoth 1:3; 2:4; Yoma 7:2 plus the Talmud in Yoma 68a and Zebahim 105b). Here on this altar called the Miphkad (Appointed) Altar, the ceremony of preparing and burning the red heifer was performed.

The Trial of Yehoshua Ha Notzri (Jesus the Nazarene)

Adding the typology of the Hebrew Jewish Nazorean believers of Yehoshua, under the leadership of James (Yacob) the Just (Tzaddik), the brother of the Prince of David Yehoshua , we can now see the shadows and symbols of Yehoshua as the Passover Lamb in which every detail of the selection, preparation and slaughter of the Pesach Lamb at Passover matched with every detail of Yehoshua, the Messiah of his generations. Yehoshua was interrogated, inspected by Pilate and then sent for execution under the province of the High Priest, Ananias, one of the most wicked of the Sadducee families in first century Jerusalem.

While the Prince of David, Yehoshua Ha David was being investigated and interrogated, it was done in the Hall of the Sanhedrin housed in the Chamber of Hewn Stones in the Temple on the left side of the Altar of Burnt Offering. (Shabbat 15a and Rosh haShanah 31a.b)

During the Passover season the High Priest Caiphas as President of the Sanhedrin and Annas, the Sagan, his deputy left their homes probably in the aristocratic section of the southwest hill of Jerusalem and went to live for seven days in their official ‘house’ in the temple compound. (Middoth 5:4; Encyclopedia Judaica iii.991) The residence of the High Priest in the temple, was called the “House of Stone” (Parah 3:1)

This seven-day residency included every weekly Shabbats, the new moons, the annual spring and fall festivals, especially the Day of Atonement and for seven days prior to offering the Red Heifer. It was here in their temple residences that the Sadducees walked across to the Chamber of Hewn Stones to interrogate and judge Yehoshua the Prince.

Think carefully the meaning of this whole scenario. In as much as the trial of Yehoshua, called “The Nazarene”, occurs just before a High Shabbat (Sabbath) during the Passover week, Yehoshua was judged by the High Priest, his deputy and the chief priests and then condemned by the Sanhedrin, all within the Temple proper itself.

The judgment for Yehoshua’s death was to be in His Own Father’s House, in the presence of HaShem, His Father, who was symbolically dwelling on His Throne in His dwelling in the Holy of Holiest.

Since the Prince of David, Yehoshua was now accursed as a condemned man, he had to be taken away from the presence of HaShem out the eastern gate. He followed the route of Adam to the east and away from the Garden of Eden and the presence of G-d.

Yehoshua Ha David, the Messiah of His Generation as the Red Heifer

The same pattern of fulfillment is seen in the relationship between Yehoshua and the Red Heifer. The Red Heifer was examined and inspected on the temple proper to determine if she was a perfect or blemishless a heifer with no more than three white or black hairs on her body. So also, Prince Yehoshua was examined and interrogated by the High Priest, then the whole Sanhedrin and then Pilate, who could find ‘no fault in Him’.

The Red Heifer was then led out the eastern gate of the temple, so also Y’shua was led away from the temple out the eastern gate, also away from the presence of His Father. As an accused man of sin, Prince Yehoshua followed the route of Adam and Eve as they were driven from the Garden of Eden and away from the presence of G-d because of their sin of disobedience.

The Red Heifer was led across the Kidron Valley, walking over the Bridge of the Red Heifer to the summit of the Mount of Olives, and up to the summit of the mount where she was slaughtered, so also Yehoshua the Prince of David was led by the same route to the place where He is crucified.

Notice again how the author of Hebrews depicts this scene.

Hebrews 13:12-13 - “Therefore Yehoshua also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate. Therefore, let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing His reproach.”

Carefully look at this text. To sanctify us with his death, Yehoshua, guided by his heavenly “Father”, meticulously fulfilled every detail of the ritual of the red heifer in which his crucifixion occurred outside the gate (walls of the city of Jerusalem) and outside the camp.

In order that his death would not defile the temple itself, the location was beyond the limits of 1000 yards (2000 cubits) outside the city walls. The closest location beyond the limits of 1000 yards was near the summit on the southern hill of Mount of Olives.

The last part of the verse above, one must question, where this is a symbolic or literal interpretation. If symbolic, then the interpretation “bearing the stigma that he bore”, would suggest that we would give up the approval of the world and accept the reproach of Yehoshua, the Prince of David. And as such, going ‘outside the camp’, would suggest that we would be willing to be excluded from religious and social acceptance.

Yet is there a literal interpretation? Would not the Hebrew author suggest that the reader retrace the footsteps of Jesus. For Yehoshua to use His own blood for the saving grace and sanctification that it offers to all believers, He would have to suffer and be executed outside the gates and walls of the city, as preordained since the days of Moshe. Not only that, the author urges the readers to mentally go watch the crucifixion outside the camp on the Mount of Olives, and watch Him bear ‘His reproach’, or the cross beam of his “execution upon a tree”.

The Ashes of the Red Heifer and the Restoration of the Sanctuary/Temple

The Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount

So, the puzzle continues. According to rabbinic opinion, future temple construction cannot begin unless the ashes of the red heifers that have been mixed since the days of Moses also have been found. Though this fact is overlooked by many evangelical Christians who in their beliefs of dispensationalism, await the construction of the Temple in Jerusalem as a sign of the End of Times, the soon to be abomination of desolation and the imminent coming of Yehoshua is not overlooked by the ultra-orthodox Jews.

King David’s Sepulcher (underground) in reference to the Temple of Herod in Jerusalem

For three decades, a former Baptist minister, now amateur archeologist, Vendyl Jones, now deceased has been searching for the K’lal, which according to the Copper Scroll is the urn or vessel that contains the ashes of the red heifer that was used in the Mishkhan or Wilderness Sanctuary and in Solomon’s Temple. These ashes were from the first heifer that was slaughter by Eliezar in the days of Moses.

According to Jones, in order for the Beit HaMikdash (Holy Temple) to be restored, this vessel of ashes from the first Temple ashes of the red heifer must be found. This is not just a fantasy of a lone Texas archeologist, but was shared by the late Lubavitcher Rebbe, whom some Jews believe also to be a messiah, plus the rabbinic giants of Adin Even Israel Steinsaltz and Reuven Grodner, formerly from the Hebrew University.

Even Menachem Burstin, who is a known botanist of the Middle East flora and expert on Biblical chemistry has also stated that only the ashes of the red heifer remain of all the ingredients needed to prepare for the water of purification.

As we shall soon see, this unique metal document, the Copper Scroll according to the translation from the Hebrew linguists of the Vendyl Jones Research Institute, state that “under the spices, is the purification.” According to the meaning of this translation, buried beneath the site where the Temple Incense called the Pitum haQetoret was discovered near the ‘hidden north entrance’ at the Cave of the Column is the site where the ashes of the Red Heifer are buried.

But what is the importance about the furor on the Temple Mount? In 1967, just a month after the Jews on the six-day war and took over possession of the Temple Mount, the custody of the mount was given to the Moslem Grand Mufti of Jerusalem by the Jewish government as a statement of peace.

To a secular Jewish perspective, this was not particularly significant as the Jewish people did not have access to walk on the mount for fear that they would be treading over the ground where the Most Holy Place of the Temple stood with the Ark of the Covenant.

This ground was sacred and holy and as such the Temple Mount was useless to the secular Jew. With the Mosque of Omer on the mount since 1600’s, the Moslem people now accept this site to be their own possession. At this site where they believe a vision in the Koran that Mohammed was miraculously transported from Mecca to Jerusalem, gives them justification that outside of a holy jihad, no non-Muslim religion or nation will ever take over control of the third recognized holy spot in the Moslem religion.

Yet not only the Muslim faith, but the Jesuits of the Roman Catholic Church have been eying the control of the Temple Mount a symbol of their being the legitimate representative of the World Christian faith and what they feel is their rightful responsibility as the custodian of the Mount, to make it a place where the faithful of all religions can come to worship.

This surreal idealism, to many prophetic scholars, has the germ of reality, for what place could best represent the idealism of a One World Order with a One-World Faith, then to have the Catholics broker this mount as Mount of worship for the three largest religions in the world.

Yet Jewish tradition records that the birth of a pure red heifer has not occurred since the destruction of Herod’s Temple in 70 CE by the forces of the Roman emperor Titus.

To the tzaddiks of Israel, if such a calf were truly to grow up and remain unblemished, it would herald the beginning of the Messianic era with the rebuilding of the Holy Temple as envisioned by the prophet Ezekiel.

According to the rabbinic sages, the redemption of Israel will be like the morning dawn, "In the beginning, it progresses very slowly...but as it continues, it grows brighter and brighter."

Yet not all orthodox or biblical scholars share the idea that the Temple Mount is the site where the Temple of Solomon once stood. There is a growing body of Christian and Jewish scholars that believe that Solomon’s Temple actually stood on a site south of the present Temple Mount, over the area of the Gihon Springs and the recently excavated tunnel staircases ascending from mikvaot baths that possibly were used by the High Priest and the temple Levites.

The Temple Mount of King Herod in the 1^st century CE

This is Dr. Martin’s representation of the Temple on the left, and Fortress Antonia on the right. The Temple Mount as seen with its entrances on the east. Note the position of a double tiered arched bridge (described in the next chapter) which led from the Temple environs (the “Inward Sanctuary”) with the Miphkad Altar which was the Altar of Red Heifer (the “Outward Sanctuary”) on the Mount of Olives. DWS

The archeological data accumulated by the late Ernest L Martin and published in his book,The Temples that Jerusalem Forgot, was that the Temple of Solomon and Zerubbabel were located over the Ophel Mound near and above the Gihon Springs. Also, the present Haram esh-Sharif, the present Temple Mount was actually the Fort of Antonia, where the judgment hall of Pilate was located.

This site would also be in harmony with the futuristic message of Jesus to his disciples just before his crucifixion when he and his disciples were overlooking the temple complex,

“Verily I say unto you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down.” (Matt. 24:2)

The Tenth Red Heifer

Also, according to Josephus, just before the final days of Jerusalem, when the forces of Vespasian and Titus were heading toward Jerusalem, the high priest prepared a tenth red heifer for slaughter in hopes of re-purifying the temple and save the city when the heifer gave birth to a lamb in the temple premises.

The very animal that represented a ‘sin offering’ for the congregation of Israel, now defied the laws of genetics and gave birth to a lamb. The heifer had been defiled and the temple was destroyed.

Was the Lord of hosts trying to tell the Jewish temple leadership that He had already sent His own son, who became the symbolic Passover Pesach Lamb and also had fulfilled all the requirements of the Red Heifer?

Obviously, the message was not accepted by the High Priest Caiphas and the wicked Sadducean leadership in Jerusalem, who had seven years earlier, stoned the brother of Yehoshua, James the Just, who served as the leader of the Jerusalem Nazorean Party ruling as the High Priest of Hebrew Nazarene Ecclesia.

Due to the righteousness that was performing the duties of the High Priest during the day of Yom Kippur, it appears that someday, a Red Heifer will be found, if not already and the ashes of the prior Red Heifer will be discovered.

Will this lead to an apocalyptic confrontation between the Jews and the Moslems? The Netanyahu government with its new mandate from the orthodox Jewish community could re-assume possession and control of the Temple Mount igniting the spark that could erupt into the future Gog-Magog War of Ezekiel.

As one Bible Searcher commented; “What if the new 10^th Red Heifer was prepared for slaughter to obtain the ashes to purify the site for a Sanctuary or New Temple; yet this time she foaled a “lion cub”?

Would the Orthodox Jewish rabbanim accept that the Messiah ben David, the Lion of Judah, was also the Messiah ben Joseph, who gave Himself as the Pesach Lamb in the 1^st century CE? This drama still has a few pages left to unfold.

************

Destination Yisrael – “Slowly the Almighty One of Israel is opening the gates of the Supernal Realm surrounding the Throne of G-d. He is revealing to us a mini-vision of our future as we become one with Him in the future Millennium of the Great Shabbat.

The struggles we will have within this era, will be to give up of ourselves, allow humility to become a part of our lives, for within each us is the sublime message that if we are willing to submit ourselves to His will, the power of the Divine will help us to jump the hurtles into our future.

Then we realize that the Eternal One now reveals to us that the future of our Eternity was given to Metatron, He was the first of creation, the most Exalted Being of the heavenly realms. He was the Vizier to the Holy One of Israel as Vizier like Joseph was to the Pharaoh of old. Here is a majestic being who oversees the running the Universes of the Divine.

And he was the same being that led the Children of Israel out of Egypt to the mount called Sinai this time as a Pillar of Fire at night and a Cloud to shade the daytime. Metatron was the “Guide” to Moshe in the Wilderness. It was here where he helped to lead and guide the Great Redeemer of the Children of Israel. Metatron became the Neshama Soul of Moshe in heaven that related to the “Indwelling Soul” or the Neshama Soul of Moshe on Planet Earth.

As such Moshe, as we also may, kept in constant touch with the Divine One for man, created in the Image of G-d, has always had direct line access with the One G-d of Israel. If you have wondered how biblical prophecy fits into your life, and how it will affect the Return of the House of Israel, then the G-d of Israel is beginning his “call” to bring you home, too. You might desire to reconnect with your cousins the Jews and the Biblical portrayals on what is and may be happening in your near future.

This Biblical portrayal includes Prophecies that the Lost Tribes of the House of Israel are about to return to the Land of their Biblical Inheritance. This is Divine Destiny in living reality as the 10 Lost Tribes of Israel return to their Homelands first in Shomron (Samaria), Israel.

DESTINATION YISRAEL scans the world for information that has relevance on the time of the end. It is our prayer that this will allow the believers in the Almighty One of Israel to “watch and be ready”. Our readiness has nothing to do trying to halt the progression of evil on our planet earth. In our readiness, we seek to be prepared for the coming of the Messiah of Israel so that goodness and evil will be manifested in its fullest.

Our preparation is a pathway of spiritual readiness for a world of peace. Our defender is the Metatron, the Lord of hosts. The time of the end suggests that the Eternal One of Israel’s intent is to close out this chapter of earth’s history so that the perpetrators of evil, those that seek power, greed and control, will be eliminated from this planet earth. The wars of the heavens are being played out on this planet earth and humans will live through it to testify of the might, power, justice and the love of the God of Israel.

Five Sacred Articles not found in the Second Temple

Introduction

In part one of this series we became acquainted with the fascinating document, Emeq HaMelekh and the role that five worthy men, Shimur Ha Levi, Haggai (Chaggai the Prophet), Zechariah son of Iddo, Zedekiah (Zidkiyah), Hezekiah (Hizkiyah), Hilkiyah, Ezra the Cohen, and Baruch son of Neriah the Scribe for the Prophet Jeremiah.

Under the command of King Josiah during his reformation and cleansing of the Jewish Temple (Beit HaMikdash), the Torah was found. The temple was restored and the Feast of Passover was reinstituted. After this time King Josiah instructed Jeremiah to institute a rescue operation for the treasures of Moses, David and Solomon that were in safekeeping in the temple.

During this time the Wilderness Tabernacle was hid in a cave near the grave of Moses (Moshe) in site of Mount Nebo. There the Sanctuary of the Dwelling called the Mishkhan with the Ark of the Covenant included:

The Stone Tablets of Moses (Moshe);
The Crown of the High Priest Aaron;
The Ephod, Breastplate, the Urim and Thummin of the High Priest’s garments;
The Altar of Incense;
The Golden Menorah;
The Qalal which held the ashes of the red heifer;
The Sapphire Rod;
The Silver Chest which held the garments of the High Priest;
Plus, other temple treasures that had been stored in the Genizah of Solomon’s (Shlomo)Temple and were stored in a concealed cave in the Valley of Achor.

In this document we will explore the archeological explorations of Vendyl Jones as he searched for the Qualal, the ashes of the Red Heifer and the ark of the Covenant at the Valley of Achor.

This latter site was the focal point of the search of Ron Wyatt below the Temple Mount (Haram As-Sharif). Here was the Genizah site below the Holy of Holies in Zedekiah’s (Zidkiyah’s) Grotto or the Cavern deep beneath the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. It was known as the Royal Quarries or Solomon’s Stables with their underground tunnels that went from the Gate between the two Walls to the Valley of Passengers.

Elisha witnessing the Ascension of Elijah with the Fiery Horses and Merkaba in the Valley of Passengers

This tunnel was last used as an escape route by King Zedekiah on the 9^th of Av as the forces of Nebuchadnezzar were destroying the Temple of Solomon. Here in the Valley of Passengers was the site where Elijah was taken on an inter-dimensional journey on a Merkabah, a fiery chariot just moments after he threw his mantle to Elisha the Prophet; the heir to the prophetic mantle. Here also was the site where John the Baptizer also with a special mantle, introduced his followers to the mahout (baptism) of water and fire.

The second temple of Zerubbabel in the days of Nehemiah was known to be deficient in several areas in relations to Solomon’s Temple, especially since there was no anointing oil to anoint prophets or kings.

The temple was eventually desecrated by the Syrian king Antiochus Epiphanes IV in the Abomination of Desolation which lead to the Maccabean Revolt, the restoration of the temple and the Festival of Chanukah (Hanukah) called the Festival of Lights.

Mishnah 1

“These are the vessels dedicated and concealed when the Temple was destroyed:
The Tabernacle and the Curtain,
The Holy Menorah,
The Ark of Testimony,
The golden Nameplate on Aharon the Cohen’s forehead;
The golden crown of Aharon the Cohen;
The Breastplate of Judgment;
The Silver Trumpets;
The Cherubim over the Ark of the Covenant; plus;
The Altar of burnt offerings,
The Curtain of the Communion Tent;
The Forks and the Bread Molds;
The Table [of the Showbread];
The Curtain of the Gate;
The Copper Altar, The Sacred Garments of Aharon which were worn by the Cohen Haggadic (High Priest) on the Day of Atonement;
The Pa'amonim (bells) and Ramona (pomegranates) on the hem of the robe [of the Cohen Gadol];
The holy vessels that Moshe made on Mount Sinai by the command of the Holy One;
The Staff of Moshe, and;
The Jar of the Manna.

After the House of the L-rd was dedicated, according to the traditions of the Jews, the Sanctuary of the Congregation was kept in a guarded and sealed area below the Temple premises, in a virtual museum as the guarded treasure of the heritage of the Israelite people.

When the House of the Lord was finished by Solomon (Shlomo), the Glory of HaShem (the Shekinah) filled the House. The Glory of the L-rd filled the gold enclosed Inner Shrine called the Holy of Holiest. This Glory was with a manifestation that was greater than the Glory that filled the Holy Place in the Wilderness Tabernacle of the Congregation (the Mishkhan) with Moshe (Moses) at the base of Mount Sinai. (1 Ki. 8:6-10)

There beneath the two giant golden cherubim, the arching wings shielded the Golden Ark for twenty cubits from one wall to the other, where the Golden Ark of the Covenant was placed.

The walls of the shrine were radiant as the Glory of HaShem flashed with a golden aura, dancing off the silhouettes of the carved relief images of cherubim, palms and calyxes on the walls and ceiling of the golden lined Inner Shrine. (1 Ki. 6:27-36)

The Entrance to the Grotto or Genizah of Solomon’s Temple

The inventory of this Mishnah is an inventory not of the Temple of Solomon but of the Wilderness Tabernacle of the Congregation that was the residence of the Lord of hosts. Using the revised chronology of the Astrophysicist, Barry Setterfield, the construction of the Tabernacle at Mount Sinai was about 1584 BCE. The building of the Temple of Solomon was about 1012 BCE, or 572 years later.

Within the Ark was contained only the Tables of Stone that the L-rd of host had given to Moshe (Moses). The L-rd of hosts had now placed or anchored His Sefirot, or His Image, of the World of the Divine and as the ancients described, where it dwelled within the Temple of Solomon.

Here the Lo-d of hosts literally brought the ‘Kingdom’ of the L-rd, called the Malkhut in the mystical traditions of Judaism, in the Shrine of the Holy of Holiest.

In Hebrew, the root word for Shekhinah is Shakhan, which literally means “He dwelt.” The Mishkhan or Tabernacle actually meant “The Dwelling Place of the Divine Presence.” Here the Shekinah came home and the Lord dwelt within the Temple built for Him.

It was there that Shlomo (Solomon) asked the Lord for ‘wisdom’ to rule G-d’s people. (1 Ki. 3:2-15). There the Levites disassembled the Tabernacle and brought it also to Jerusalem and placed it in the quarry beneath the Temple complex.

The Mishkhan, the former Wilderness Tabernacle at Sinai, was now placed in retirement beneath the Holy of Holiest, under the Ark of the Covenant and Solomon’s Quarry, a former limestone quarry where stones for the temple were made became the Genizah or the Sepulcher for the Tabernacle. It is supposed that the place where the Lord of hosts spoke to Abraham as he stood over Isaac on Mount Moriah became the site of the future Holy of Holiest in Solomon’s Temple. The site of the museum depository for the Tabernacle became the footstool for the Lord of hosts.

According to the Mishnah III and Rambam II, in the section Parah, it was written that the Tabernacle of the Congregation and Qalal [Ashes of the Red Cow] were positioned "Deep, deep below the outer court of the House."

This would place the location of the entombed Tabernacle, in Solomon’s Genizah, in the Grotto carved out of the mountain between the Temple. There the Tabernacle was positioned directly under the site of the Inner Shrine where the Ark of the Covenant was located in the Holy of Holiest directly above.

Here was a living symbol, an earthly type/anti-type of a greater type/anti-type in another spiritual dimension called the Heavenly Tabernacle. As the earthly Temple on top of Mount Moriah rested the Wilderness Tabernacle deep within the bowels of the mountain, so also the Israelite could envision the heavenly Sanctuary in that spiritual dimension resting over the Temple of Solomon.

When did the Shekhinah Glory of G-d leave the Holy of Holiest? We do not know. Was at the division of the kingdom into the Northern and Southern Kingdoms? Was it at the invasion of Jerusalem by Sheshank, the Pharaoh of Egypt when the Ark of the Covenant was secreted down to an undisclosed location?

What we do know is that the Ark of the Covenant was not in the Most Holy Place at the end of the reign of the wicked but later repentant King Manasseh and that King Josiah, his son, had it brought out of the secret dwelling place within the bowels of the Mount beneath the Temple.

What we also do know it that neither the Shekhinah Glory nor the Ark of the Covenant was within Jerusalem when the forces of Nebuchadnezzar encircled the city at the first invasion in 605 BCE.

What we now know, we have an inventory near the time of the fall and destruction of Jerusalem of what remained in the National Museum of the United Monarchy of Israel"of their most prized and treasured possessions, the relics of the Wilderness Tabernacle built by Bezaleel under the direct supervision of Moses, using the blueprints given direct by the hand of the Lord of hosts.

"The Scribe Shaphan Reading the Book of the Law to King Josiah" by Leonaert Bramer (1622)

King Josiah and the Ark of the Lord

Let us now return to 11 Maccabees 2 and refresh our memory of this historical notation recorded about 165 BCE.

11 Maccabees 2: 4-5 - “It was also contained in the same writing, that the prophet (Jeremy), being warned of G-d, commanded the tabernacle and the ark to go with him, as he went forth into the mountain, where Moses climbed up, and saw the heritage of G-d.

“And when Jeremy came thither, he found a hollow cave, wherein he laid the tabernacle, and the ark, and the altar of incense, and so stopped the door.”

That is not all, for there are other writings. As 11 Maccabees 2 continues, on the eve of the celebration of the first festival of Chanukah in 165 BCE, called the Festival of Lights, the Maccabean authors penned these words:

11 Maccabees 2:13-14: “These same facts are set out in the official records and in the memoirs of Nehemiah. Just as Nehemiah collected the chronicles of the kings, the writing of prophets, the works of David, and royal letters about sacred offerings, to found his library, so Judas (Maccabees) also has collected all the books that had been scattered as a result of our recent conflict. These are in our possession, and if you need any of them send messengers for them.”

Are the official records and the memoirs of Nehemiah, the same as the Book of Chronicles and the Book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament or the Hebrew TaNaKh?

Where is the Library of Nehemiah? Where is the Library of Judas Maccabees? These libraries have yet to be discovered though archeologists have been searching for them in the vicinity of Qumran.

It is still the disputed yet consensus that Qumran was the site of the main commune of the Essenes, the third party of the Jewish people. As ultra-orthodox, they were firm in their belief that the purity of the priesthood in the Herodian Temple had been defiled by the Herodian and Sadducean family hierarchy.

They were using the temple as the greatest money laundering and scam operation in Jewish history, all in the name of their L-rd. As such, the Essenes, who were contemporary and probably the party of John the Baptiser and Yehoshua, the Haredi Orthodox itinerant rabbi cousin called “The Nazarene”, believed and wrote in all their writings that the purity of the priesthood and the restoration of the Temple would be still the future to their day.

In the beginning passages of the Copper Scroll, the site of where the treasures are hidden is mentioned as the Valley of Achor.

The Valley of Achor

“In the desolations of the Valley of Achor, under the hill that must be climbed, hidden under the east side, forty stones deep, is a silver chest, and with it, the vestments of the High Priest, all the gold and silver with the Great Tabernacle (the “Mishkhan”) and all its Treasuries.”

It was in the Jewish year 3323 that the Prophet Jeremiah gave instructions to Good King Josiah that it was imperative to remove the Ark of the Covenant from the Holy of Holies in the Temple of Solomon.

The underground chambers below the Temple complex were lined with grottos and tunnels; the largest called Solomon’s Stable, which is the size of several soccer fields. These man-made grottos were adjacent and contiguous with the natural cavern system hidden deep in the recesses of Mount Moriah.

These limestone caverns, similar to the Mammoth cave system in the state of Kentucky, traverse for many miles, most of which have not been explored fully to this day. Being in an active seismic zone, in which many earthquakes have been recorded throughout the millenniums, many of these caverns have now collapsed, while many of them were sites where the limestone was quarried to be used for the construction of the Temple.

Here deep within the recesses of the mountain, the Ark of the Covenant was placed for safekeeping. Also in this location was also the Mishkhan, the Wilderness Tabernacle, which was placed there in safekeeping by King Solomon as a national treasure and museum.

Mishnah, Sotah 9a - “…With regard to Moses the Master said: “After the First Temple was erected, the Tent of Meeting was stored away, its boards, hooks, bars, pillars, and sockets.” Where? Rabbi Hisda said in the name of Abimi; “Beneath the crypts of the Temple…”

Since that day, no record within the Bible records anything else about the Ark of the Covenant.

Entrance to Zedekiah's Cave, Jerusalem Israel ( Wikimedia Commons )

Zedekiah’s Cave was first rediscovered in 1854 by an American physician, Mr. Barkley and his son as they followed their dog that disappeared into grotto’s entrance near the northern wall of the Temple Mount. One hole after another and this physician became the first modern explorer of this grotto and cavern system.

Though most scholars believe that the present-day grotto extends only from the northern wall to under the center of the Temple Mount, more recent explorers including Ron Wyatt and Vendyl Jones testify that that this cavern system is pocketed with other tunnels, now partially blocked traversing to regions unknown.

That this cavern system was known to the ancients is testified by Maimonides, the famous Spanish rabbi who wrote:

Maimonides. Mishnah Torah, Book of Techora, Hilchot Para Aduma 2, 10 - “...the whole Temple Mount with its courts was empty inside in fear of the graves of the abyss…” Mount of Anointment (Mount of Olives) also - sh.b.b.

According to Maimonides, the sanctity of the Temple area remained even though the physical temple had been destroyed. Here the Grottos were called the Inner Court of the Temple and they could be defiled by entering-into the inner sanctum below the Holy of Holiest.

As left in the legacy of the numerous visits by biblical authors and explorers of ancient Land of Israel, we learn the following:

There is a large cave in the city of Jerusalem that was used for by Solomon as a quarry. It is likely that Solomon used the stone from this cave to build the temple in Jerusalem. However, there are other quarries in the Jerusalem area that may have also contributed to the Temple. Prince Yehoshua Ha Dovid, stated that not even one stone of the temple would be left upon another when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem in 70 AD. If we had a piece of stone from Solomon's temple, we could determine exactly where it was quarried from. But we do not, and likely never will.

Josephus Flavius, refers to it as the "Royal Caverns."

In the 10th century, the Damascus Gate was called "the Gate of the Grotto."

In the 15th century, the cave was a textile storage area called "the Cotton Grotto."

In the 16 century, the Ottoman Turks sealed the cave until it was discovered by Dr. Barclay while walking with his son and dog. The dog started digging at the entrance of the cave while tracking a fox.

Although this is often called "Zedekiah's Cave", there is nothing in the Bible that connect Zedekiah with any kind of cave. The story in Jeremiah 39:4; 2 Kings 25:4 is often suggested, but clearly not related.

Moses Maimonides, Book of Avodah, Hilchot Beit Habechirah, 7, 7. -

Jews entering the Inner Court of the Temple while impure risking the punishment of Kareit (cutting off of the soul).

“Even though the Temple is destroyed…a Jew is obligated to revere the Temple as if it were built. Only enter the permitted places and do not sit in the Azarah…as it says, ‘guard My Sabbath and revere My Temple’, just as the Sabbath is forever, so too is the reverence for the Temple eternal, even though it has been destroyed.

Within the cave itself is evidence of three types of limestone, the pure white massif limestone, called “Melekh” for King or Royal Limestone that was used in royal, religious and diplomatic buildings as it was soft enough for carving but would not flake.

Near the entrance is a denser and softer limestone, called “Missi-helou” or ‘sweet’ limestone used for smaller ornamental work. Then there was a ‘red’ limestone impregnated with iron ore that was called “Mizzi-Yehudi” or ‘Jewish’ limestone that is commonly used in building construction even today, giving Jerusalem that pink hue as it reflects the sunrays on a clear evening at dusk.

The Royal Quarries as they were called in the Palestine Exploration Fund of 1866, was reported by Major Condor:

"Jerusalem, as is well known, is honeycombed with excavated caves, natural caverns, cisterns cut in the rock, subterranean passages and aqueducts In its underground chambers and catacombs it is richer than any known city.

In Jerusalem the excavated chambers and caves were for three purposes. Some of them, especially the Bahr el Khebar were for the supply of water. Those outside the city were for burial places, while those under the city, the vast caverns known as the ‘Royal Quarries’ were actually used as quarries for the stone used in building.

The entrance to them is by an opening so low that it is necessary to stoop, but the height rapidly increases…The evidence of the place having been used as a quarry are very plain and numerous, the cuttings about four or five inches wide still remaining, and on the left hand side of each cutting may be observed a little hollow formed at the corner into which a wick and oil lamp may have been placed.

The entrance to these caverns, known also by the name of "Solomon’s Quarries" because it is supposed that the stones for the Temple were prepared there is a little to the East of the Damascus Gate and opposite to Jeremiah’s Grotto."

Only two years earlier, Rev J.D. Newman, 1864 was a visitor in the city of Jerusalem and left his account.

Rev J.D. Newman, 1864: - “But of all the objects of interest which met my eye during my tour of the walls, none was more thrilling than the "Great Cave" beneath Jerusalem, the entrance to which is just east of the Damascus Gate.

In constructing the north wall of the city, the Hill Bezetha has been cut through the solid rock to the depth of forty feet, the excavation having been extended 600 feet east and west, and 450 north and south….

Accompanied by the American consul and a single servant, we entered the cave without difficulty, and, lighting our wax tapers, proceeded along carefully for a hundred feet, when we began rapidly to descend. To our surprise, on our right sat an Arab maiden who had become the sibyl of the cavern, surrounded by several natives, to whom she was delivering her sibylline oracles.

Rapidly descending toward the southeast, we soon found ourselves in cave three thousand feet in circumference, more than a thousand feet in length, and more than half that distance in breadth.

The air was damp; the darkness that of a ray less night; the ground on which we walked was strewn with the chippings of the quarrier; the walls around us were marred with marks of the chisel, and the ceiling above us adorned with stalactites of a rose-color hue, from which trickled the percolating waters of the city.while, disturbed by our approach, bats screamed their grief and flapped their long black wings against their solid nests.

Moving southward, we came to the verge of a precipice a hundred feet across and fifteen feet deep, on the bottom of which the skeleton of some lost explorer had been found. Threading a long gallery on the left, we saw a fountain as deep as it was wide, partially filled with water strongly impregnated with lime.

Turning eastward, we entered a second gallery of greater depth, in the sides of which are immense blocks of limestone, in part detached from their native bed, just as they were left by the unknown quarrier thousands of years ago. Here, as elsewhere, were the unmistakable marks of a broad chisel-shaped instrument, evidently used to detach the blocks on either side and at top and bottom, and then by the pressure of a lever the mass was broken off from the rock behind.

Occasionally we passed huge pillars supporting the ceiling above, and in several instances, I saw blocks hewn and squared ready to be hoisted to their destination.

On the right and left winding passage-ways led us to noble halls, white as snow, and supported by native piers, on which are engraved the cross of some Christian pilgrim or knight of the Crusades; and on the sides of the chambers are Hebrew and Arabic inscriptions, the memorial of some wandering Jew and some conquering son of the Prophet….

The Underground layout of Solomon’s Quarry called Zedekiah’s Cave

Drawing on Zedekiah’s Cave by Ron Wyatt

Being unquestionably a quarry, many facts lead to the conclusion that here were hewn the stones for the construction of Solomon's magnificent temple. The material, both as to grain and color, is the same as that found in the antique walls and buildings of the city; the extent of the quarry, together with the vast amount of stone removed, and in such large blocks, suggest the erection of some grand temple; the ancient tradition coming down from the days of Jeremiah and pointing to this quarry.

The remarkable absence of another adjacent to the city; and the important fact that the mouth of the quarry is many feet higher than the surface of the Temple area, which must have facilitated the transportation of those immense blocks of limestone, which were no doubt conveyed on rollers down the inclined plane of the quarry to the site of the Temple, where, hewn and finished, they were silently elevated to their destined place - the magnificent fame of Solomon, with all its courts and porticoes, rising noiselessly into being, as of old the world rose from naught, at once explaining and fulfilling the words of sacred history: "The house, when it was in building, was built of stone made ready before it was brought hither, so that there was neither hammer nor axe, nor any tool of iron heard in the house while it was building."

Compare the 1864 account of Reverend Newman now with the recent account by explorer Ron Wyatt who has gained much fame his claims of seeing the Ark of the Covenant and all the Temple furniture within these cavern systems below the mount, yet even though his untimely death in 1999, his estate has not released any evidence of these claims. Even so the historical account of Zedekiah’s Cave is much different after 140 years.

Zedekiah’s Cave under the Temple Mount in Jerusalem

Ron Wyatt - “This vast cavern is located underneath the Muslim section of the city, extending 750 feet into "Mt. Moriah", and beginning at the trench or dry moat separating the northern and southern portion. It is 325 feet wide at the maximum point and the average height is almost 50 feet. It was clearly a stone quarry, but at what point it was in use, we really do not know.

There are those who believe its stone was used in the first temple, and that may be true. But its existence was not a well-known fact and most likely it was always kept completely sealed for fear of any enemies trying to tunnel into the city. So, little is known for sure about the giant quarry, but one point everyone agreed on was the fact that there was no entrance into the city from the quarry.

Viewing the diagram (below) of its layout, the dark areas are pillars of solid rock left in place to support the ceiling, like the pillars left in a coal mine. As the miners work their way back out of the mine after depleting it of all it's coal, they remove these pillars of coal and the mine usually caves in. These were obviously left in place to prevent the cavern from collapsing since part of the northern city is above it.

Ron wondered if there were any tunnels leading from the quarry. If so, perhaps the Ark and other items had been lowered through the hole from the area north of the temple mount into the cavern, and then through a tunnel to its present location. So, he began to look for tunnels. And sure enough, he found one.

Almost completely hidden from view by boulders and overhanging rock, there was an opening into the cave wall that was sealed with several large cut rocks and it was heading in the right direction. But it was a long way from the site Ron had worked in all those years. If this was indeed the tunnel which led to the chamber, Ron would have quite a project ahead of him in clearing such a long tunnel.”

Over the years, and after many devastating earthquakes, it is assumed that many of these passages are now closed and collapsed. Many ancient writing called this the sepulchral cavern of the Kings.

In the Rabbinic writings, in Erubin, 61, 61b, it mentions ‘the great cavern of Zedekiah.” Yet exploration over the last one and a half centuries testify that even below this grotto there is an enormous reservoir of water flowing in vaulted chamber below. Vilnai, Dr. Zeev, Jerusalem, the Old City, Jerusalem, 1970)

Cherub Drawing found in Zedekiah’s Cave

Cherub Carving on Ivory - Samaria

In 1874, a French archeologist, Charles Clermont-Ganneau explored the cavern system making sketches and drawing of the site. He discovered a carving on the wall near the mouth of the cave depicting a cherub, the winged, lion-like creature described in the Bible as part of the Ark of the Covenant and whose motif is found in the royal palaces of Assyria, Babylon and Persia.

The Ivory Palace of Ahab in Samaria had similar carving left in ivory as reflected in comparison and reflects the iconoclastic images used in the First Temple period. This etching was removed and taken to the Palestine Exploration Fund Offices in London. There is also some suggestion of early burial caves here.

During the days of the Hasmonean rulers and King Herod, the use of the quarry was again apparently put into use. The stone on the Temple Mount, thought to be Herodian match the size and grain of the limestone and the indentation marking of the stones in the quarry.

In 1989, Israel J. Herman, MEComp spoke to the Supreme Grand Royal Arch Chapter of the State of Israel on King Solomon’s Quarries. Reprinted in The Israeli Freemason, it records;

“The Freemasons, believing that the cave does indeed go back to Solomon's reign, called the cave King Solomon's Quarry and, since Solomon is considered the first Freemason, they have used the wide, high-ceilinged central chamber for ceremonies since the late 19th century.

The cave opening is beneath the north wall of the Old City of Jerusalem; close to the Damascus Gate. From the entrance, the main path leads south for nearly 225 meters (~740 ft) till it reaches the main large cave called "The Freemasons Hall."

From this hall, it bears east, leading to the dripping spring and the lowest place of the cave. The known area of the cave is about 900 m² (~10,000 square feet)

One of the methods for hewing the stones was to carve broad slits along the rock face, and to drive dry wooden wedges into them. Water was then poured over the dry wedges, so causing them to swell. The resulting pressure then cracked the stone along the slits. This primitive method of quarrying was quite effective, and traces of it can still be found in the cave.

The cave-quarry is quite close to the Temple Mount, and even, large stones could have been transported to the Temple construction site. Furthermore, it is known from the first book of Kings that it was forbidden to use any iron tools in the actual 'on site' construction of the Temple, nor was the sound of such permitted to be heard. This cave would be the ideal place for quarrying and dressing the stones for the Temple, while meeting with those requirements.”

This cave, since the days of the British Mandate, was used in the yearly august ceremony for the consecration of the Supreme Grand Royal Arch Chapter of the State of Israel, with the exception of the years from 1948, when the British were driven out by the Israelis, to 1968, after the war of 1967, when the Israeli once again had possession of the entire city of Jerusalem. Also, yearly the Mark Master Mason ceremony is conducted.

As inscribed in the Copper Scroll, they were hidden in the last chamber on the western wall of the cavern system beneath the Cave of the Column. According to the translators, an artificial bonding wall was created to seal the exit to Zedekiah cave and produce a camouflage so that only a small exit escape shaft, well hidden, to allow the remainder of the treasury guardians to escape.

The Gate between the Two Walls

In the Jewish year, 3331, nine years later, the Lord of hosts instructed the Prophet Jeremiah that he and over 250 of the fittest Levites in the Land of Israel were to begin an ultra-secret mission to hide the national treasures of the Israelite people which were built by Moses on the plains around Sinai and King David in preparation of building the Temple of Yahweh.

The first mission was conducted by the Prophet Jeremiah himself. A small and select contingency of Levites probably under the command of the most carefully selected Tzaddiks in the country; Shimur HaLevi, Zedekivahu, Yizkiyahy, Chaggai the Prophet and Zachariyah the son of Iddo the Prophet were selected to carry the following:

Mishkhan, the Wilderness Tabernacle,
The Golden Menorah that was engraved by the Master Craftsman, Bezaleel,
The golden nameplate that went on the forehead of the High Priest,
The golden crown of Moses’ brother, Aaron, the High Priest,
The Breastplate with the Urim and Thummin, the sacred oracle stones which G-d communicated with the High Priest including the all the articles used in the service of the Wilderness Tabernacle,
The garments of the High Priest,
The vessels of gold made by Bezaleel under the instructions of Moses,
The Staff of Aaron and the Golden Jar of Manna and to deposit them in a specially designed cavern with false walls and fronts to seal it off from the enemies of the Lord.

Gate Between Two Walls as discovered by Vendyl Jones and son, Gershom - Photo by Max Richardson

A terse description of this event was recorded in 11 Maccabees 2:2-6 of removing these priceless articles that were almost a thousand years old at that time, carrying them through almost 19 miles of natural caverns to be placed in a large grotto near the exit of the cavern system in the Valley of Achor.

Vendyl Jones - “This cavern, which begins only a few meters north of the Damascus Gate and descends steeply eastward under the Temple Mount, continues for almost 30 kilometers or 19 miles then exits in the Valley of ‘Achor. Entrance from the Jerusalem end is restricted and the exit in the Valley of ‘Achor is obscurely concealed. The simplest explanation can be found in the historical biblical information available. The Babylonian army had surrounded Jerusalem and was breaking down the walls. The only escape route was through this cavern. Therefore, a gate should be found between the two walls of the cavern…

Though the cave was mammoth in breadth, its ceiling was only a few feet overhead. Flakes of stone were piled high and deep from the northern to the southern walls. These rock chips almost completely filled the mouth of the cave….

Gershom and I proceeded forward, descending and exploring one chamber and passage at a time. When visiting hours were over, we had merely begun our exploration. I do not remember how many days we returned, arriving very early and staying until closing time. We were not just sightseeing; we were searching for that gate between the two walls. Sometimes we were digging with our hands and pitching rock chips, hoping to find an undiscovered chamber…

We decided to separate – Gershom would explore the North side of the cave and I would investigate the South chambers. Finally, the solitude and silence were broken. I could faintly hear him calling, “Dad, Dad, come on.”

We know about this passage way as it was used as a secret escape route by King Zedekiah (Zidkiyah) when he tried to flee from the royal forces of Nebuchadnezzar in 586 BCE. Here is the record of this escape.

11 Kings 25:4-5 - “(The wall of) the city was breached, and all the men of war (fled) by night by way of the gate between the two walls, which is by the king’s garden. Now, the Chaldeans were against the city round about, and (Zidkiyah, the king) went the way toward the plain (Aravah). And the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plain (Aravah) of Jericho…”

On the ninth day of the fourth month (9^th of AV) in the Jewish year 3338, King Zedekiah, with the remnant of his royal body guards fled through this grotto and tunnel system, passed through the “gate between the two walls”.

The history of the Jewish people is consistent in their legends that King Zedekiah, the last king of Judah, tried to escape the Babylonian siege, following a secret tunnel from here all the way to Jericho. Redak and Rashi, Talmudic scholars, wrote that it was the intention of the Lord of hosts that Zidkiyah was to be caught by the Babylonian. As states:

"There was a cave from the palace of Zedekiah to the plain of Jericho and he fled through the cave, and G-d caused a buck to walk on the roof of the cave and the Chaldeans followed the buck. When they reached the cave opening in the plain of Jericho, Zedekiah was emerging. They saw him and captured him."

The Book of Kings continues on with the story that the king was forced to watch the murder of his sons and then his eyes were blinded. The legends account that the percolating water dripping into a basin carved in the quarry wall is known now as Zedekiah's Tears, depicting his grief over the city and his children lost because he did not follow the advice of the Prophet Jeremiah to submit to the authority of the Babylonian king, Nebuchadnezzar.

A fascinating account of exploring this tunnel system by Vendyl Jones and his son was recorded in an article called The Gate between Two Walls, our first discovery. In this article records the first discovery of the Gate between Two Walls.

For 2390 years there was no historical record of the whereabouts of this gate until 1967, the Jewish year 5728, just after the Jewish people took full possession of the city of Jerusalem.

The exit to this cavern system that ascended up the mountain terrain back towards Jerusalem is unknown, but many scholars suggest that this is the exit from the Cave of Zidkiyah, where the king of Judah fled that fateful day.

Some sources state that the exit opening is over 7 meters high (23 feet) and 20 meters (66 feet) wide. In the days of Moses, this would have been a gaping hole or grotto in the sides of the mountain, quite visible from Mount Nebo five miles on the other side of the Jordan River.

Yet according to the Midrashim, the tunnels and caverns that led to the plain near Jericho did exist. In the Midrash Tanchumah to Numbers 3, this cavern goes for about 12 mill or 8 English miles, and in Midrash Rabbah, states that the same cavern traverse for almost 18 mill or 12 English miles from Jerusalem.

The traveler from Leghorn of the year 5282 (1522 CE), is quoted as saying:

"Not far from the Bab al Amud, is the cave of Zedekiah, which extends under - ground to the mountains near Jericho. Several persons told me, that they themselves had walked a mile in the same. It is so spacious that a man on horseback with a lance in his hand can ride through it quite comfortably."

Less than a mile north of Bab al Amud, is a sepulchral monument in a cave called the Kalba Seboa, recorded in Gittin, 56a, is suggest by many to be the cave of Zedekiah. It is recorded that in 5607 (1847 CE), a group of Arabs were digging near this cave when they stumbled upon a vault buried deep in the ground that filled with gigantic human bones, of a race of humans with great stature. The Pacha halted and forbad any further digging and the cave was closed up. This area is recognized as an area with sepulchers of kings.

One-half mile north of Kalba Seboa, is another sepulchral cave with dual chambers on top of another, in which carved in the bedrock are seventy niches, called the cave of the Seventy Sanhedrin. This manner of burial, with sepulchral vaults in niches above and alongside each other, is described in the Mishnah of Baba Bathra 6,§8. Yet who were the Seventy Elders, what era, and whether this was used for some other social group or family.

Many rabbis in the Land today firmly believe that the Ark of the Covenant is lying beneath the Temple Mount in one of the side grottos or chambers that are honeycombed within the caverns.

Ron Wyatt, the American Adventist respiratory therapist, turned amateur archeologist, claimed he found the Ark of the Covenant in a sarcophagus type box within this grotto and beneath a site where he claims that Jesus was crucified. Yet, according to Vendyl Jones, the sources carefully state the following words, “hidden in a secret passage under Har-HaByet.”

How can this be explained? As we have noted prior, the Ark of the Covenant was a small portable ark and we do not know whether another ark was built for the Holy of Holiest in which the Ark of the Covenant may have resided within.

Many ancient traditions state that duplicate Arks were built, the most famous, as some have suggested, was a duplicate Ark was built for the son of Solomon and Makeda, the Queen of Sheba, whose capital city was Axum, Ethiopia. It was their son, Menelik, called Bayna-Lehkem, who became the eventual ruler of Ethiopia, yet accomplished the biggest heist in religious history, which according to The Kebra Nagast, a thirteenth century documents, the abduction of the Ark of the Covenant, which in this manuscript does not record any duplicate, instead, they replaced the Ark with a pile of lumber, hid under the covering of the Ark.

Yet, the record of the Emeq Ha Melekh appears to have the most authenticity and reliability of any ancient record concerning the final resting place of the Sanctuary of the Congregation and the Mosaic Ark of the Covenant. Here the final resting place of the Ark is in the Valley of Achor

The Valley of Passengers near the Valley of Achor

The Valley of Passengers is a vale which Jewish tradition records as the inter-dimensional power house of cosmic events in ancient Jewish history. Lying just south of Mount Nebo, the last recorded place where Moses stood as he was given a visionary view of the future God’s chosen people, is where Jewish writing place the secret grave of Moses. It was here that the Letter of Jude records that the archangel Michael came to this spot and debated with the devil over the possession of Moses’ body. (Jude 9)

Yet it was also in the Valley of Passengers where Elijah mounted the fiery cherubim and gave his mantle to Elisha. Is it not unusual that also near this site, also in the Vale of Achor where Josephus records that John the Baptist performed a mikhvoat, a bath of purification or baptism in the Jordan River. (Dell Griffin, Kingdom, Power and Glory, unpublished, p 123)

“He commanded the Jews to exercise virtue, both as to righteousness toward one another, and piety towards G-d, and so to come to baptism; for that the washing would be acceptable to him, if they made use of it, not in order to the putting away of some sins but for the purification of the body supposing that the soul was thoroughly purified beforehand by righteousness.” (Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, Bk 18, Ch 5:2)

The Valley of Achor (Wadi En-nuweine) in Israel

Is it not of coincidence that John the Baptist, with his mantle of camel’s hair, carried the torch and power of Elijah, who also carried with him an identical camel’s hair mantle? According to the Talmud, the mantle of Elijah along with the tunic of the High Priest was kept in storage in the Ark of the Incense in the Wilderness Sanctuary.

Is this the same as the Altar of Incense that Jeremiah placed in hiding near the Mount Nebo and the grave of Moses? (11 Maccabees), (Ibid 121) Is this Altar of Incense the same as the Altar of Burnt Offering as recorded in the Emeq Ha Melekh?

Did the Essenes have access this Altar of Incense/Burnt Offering and was the mantle of camel’s hair by John the Baptist the same mantle of Elijah, the greatest prophet of Israel?

The Valley of Achor was also called the Valley of Passengers also known as Gey – Hamon - Gog

This same vale, the Valley of Passengers is also known as Gey-Hamon-Gog, situated near the Jordan River on the border between the nations of Israel and Jordan. This site is depicted as the burial ground reserved for Gog (Ezekiel 39:11) in the Gog-Magog War that prophetic scholars are anticipating in the near future.

This site is called Ammon-Gey-Don, where the Israelites will take seven months to bury the dead armies of Gog so that the land can be cleansed. (Ibid 123)

Did the Temple Guardians know there was to be another Temple?

The Prophet Haggai, now a revered Tzaddik (righteous man) in the Land of Israel, began to speak oracles of encouragement to the Jewish remnant who were struggling to re-establish a foothold back in the land of their forefathers and to erect a new Temple to the worship of the G-d of their fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Haggai 2:5-9 -

2:5 - “According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not. 2:6 - For thus saith the Lord of hosts (HaShem Tzavaot - also called The Lord, Master of Legions); yet once, it is a little while and I will shake (future to their day) the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;

2:7 - And I will shake all nations, and the desires of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.

2:8 - The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the Lord of hosts.

2:9 - The glory of this latter house (Later date to the Temple of Zerubbabel, which was called the Ezekiel Temple) shall be greater than of the former (former to the Temple of Zerubbabel, the Temple of Solomon) saith the Lord of hosts; and in this place, will I give peace, saith the Lord of host.

Here the ancient Tzaddik with the wisdom of the knowledge of the prior era of Jewish history, which he also knew as a participant in the Temple life of Solomon’s temple, talks of a time in the future when this temple will be built. Haggai was keenly aware of the present house, the Temple of Zerubbabel, a former house, the Temple of Solomon and that there would be a physical latter house.

Only two times did the Glory of the Lord fill the temple or sanctuary of the Lord. The first was at Mount Sinai with Moses (Moshe) and the second was upon the completion of the Temple of Solomon (Shlomo). The Jewish sages have concluded that Haggai was speaking of the apocalyptic end of times and Temple of the Lord that would be built in those days, whose beauty and magnificence would rival all the wonders of the world that have been built in the historical ages.

The prophet Amos revealed one thing about the intent of the Lord of hosts.

Amos 3:7 - “Surely HaShem will do nothing unless He reveals it first to His servants, the Prophets.”

Yet a little noticed wording in the Book of Haggai, suggests part of his message was about a later and more glorious House of the Lord.

Haggai 2:18 - “Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the Lord’s temple was laid, consider it from this day I will bless you.”

Yet according to the historical record, when was the foundation of the Temple of Zerubbabel laid? In the Book of Ezra 3:6, 8, 10-11 it confirms that the temple foundation of the Second Temple was laid on the 2^nd month of the 2^nd year of Darius. It also records in Ezra 6:15, that the temple was competed on the 3^rd day of the 12^th month of Adar, during the rule of Darius.

What was this discrepancy? The Book of Ezra states that the foundation of the Temple of Zerubbabel was laid on the 2^nd month of the 2^nd year of Darius and yet, Haggai stated that it was laid on the 24^th day of the 9^th month. What temple was he talking about?

Haggai then poses two questions to the Levites and priests, asking them to define what would defile a man from the outside and defile him from the inside. Either one would render them unclean, said the Levite. So, Haggai responded,

Haggai 2:2:14 - “So this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the Lord; and so is every work of their hands”. This included the construction of the Temple in which an unclean people, from unclean nations built an unclean Temple.

He also writes in Haggai 2:7, 9 -

2:7 - “And I will shake all the Nations. And the desire of all Nations will come. And I will fill this House with Glory, says the Lord. ….

2:9 - The Glory of this Latter House shall be greater than the Glory of the Former.”

The historical documentation is clear that the glory of the Second Temple did not match up to the glory of the Temple of Solomon. Yet this was not what they were talking about. The Glory of the House is actually stating the Glory that comes from the presence of the Lord of hosts residing within these walls. As we have noticed above, the only time the Glory of the Lord came to visit and to dwell was in the Wilderness Sanctuary of Moses and the Temple of Solomon.

Yet, since the building of the Second Temple, the word of the ancient Hebrew prophets was silenced. The Rabbabim in the Land of Israel are adamant to a voice that a prophet has not arisen with the people of Israel since the days of Ezra, Zechariah and Haggai.

What we now know, there was no anointing oil and so no prophets were ordained to their prophetic role. There was no anointing oil and so no kings were anointed to the throne of Judah. The Temple of Zerubbabel served more of a political national identity for the rulers of Judah and for the Jewish people as a nation.

It must be noted that the mystical sages never did refer to the Second Temple as the “House of the Lord”. One of the hallmarks of the diminished status of this temple was that there were five ‘Holy Objects” that were not found in the Second Temple. These include:

Five Sacred Articles not found in the Second Temple

The Golden Ark of the Covenant with the covering Cherubim. Within this Ark were the Torah tablets, the golden pot of manna and Aaron’s rod.
The Silver Chest which included: the garments of the High Priest Aharon, the Breastplate of twelve polished gemstones, the Ephod of the High Priest, and the Urim and Thummin where the High Priest had access to direct communication from HaShem.
The Ashes of Moses’ red heifer.
The Anointing Oil of the kings and the prophets.
The Glory of the L-rd in the focal presence of the Shekinah flame on the Ark’s mercy seat.

The inter-testament era, known as the era between the canonization of the Hebrew Scriptures by Ezra the scribe and the birth of the Prince of David Yehoshua was known to all the sages of Judaism as the era when the gift of prophecy left the Jewish people.

Without the anointing oil, they could no longer anoint the prophets, the priests and the kings (the anointed ones). After the remnant of the Jewish exiles returned from Babylon, no king of the House of David ever did sit and rule from the throne in Jerusalem. So also with the death of Haggai and Zechariah, no anointed prophets would be present to speak the “Word of the L-rd.”

During this time, the Maccabean family called the Hashmonean did restore the Land of Israel to an autonomous era to the people of Israel, after decisively driving out the Syrian leader who was persecuting the Jewish population, Antiochus Epiphanes IV. It was this Syrian ruler who also desecrated the Temple in Jerusalem, by sacrificing a pig on the altar in Jerusalem, in 175 BCE and converted the Temple into a sanctuary for the g-d Jupiter. This act of desecration, call the Abomination of Desolation, required that the temple complex undergo ritual purification and cleansing.

Only after the temple and the Levites were cleansed in 165 BCE did the Jews participate in the joyous celebration of Chanukah. The Festival of the Lights, celebrating the day when the Great Menorah was relit for the first time when they had only enough purified oil for the lamps for one day. Miracles upon miracles, the Menorah remained lit for an entire eight days.

It was the Essenes that recognized that the Temple was to be controlled by a corrupt and illegitimate priestly family, who bought and sold their position as the High Priest of the Temple first from the Greeks and later from their Roman appointed rulers. These families included: House of Ananias (Hananiah), the House of Jason, the House of Katros (Caiphas) and the House of Ishmael Ben Phiabi.

According to the Talmud, “Because of these wicked priests, Heaven decreed the destruction of the Second Temple.” And so, the Lord of hosts prevented the Guardians of the Temple treasures from restoring these treasures to the Jewish people.

They took the secret of where they hid the temple treasures to their graves, except for leaving behind a record of where these treasures were hidden: on a Copper Sheet, two marble tablets and the parchments that were preserved in later years in the Masakhet Keilim, and Tosefta (addition) to the Talmud about the 8^th century CE.

Here is a majestic being who is in charge of running the Universes of the Divine. And he was the same being that led the Children of Israel out of Egypt to the mount called Sinai this time as a Pillar of Fire at night and a Cloud to shade the daytime.

Metatron was the “Guide” to Moshe in the Wilderness. It was here where he helped to lead and guide the Great Redeemer of the Children of Israel. Metatron became the Neshama Soul of Moshe in heaven that was connected with the “Indwelling Soul” or the Neshama Soul of Moshe on Planet Earth.

As such Moshe, as we also may, kept in constant touch with the Divine One for man, created in the Image of G-d, has always had direct line access with the G-d of Israel.

If you have wondered how biblical prophecy fits into your life, and how it will affect the Return of the House of Israel, then the G-d of Israel is beginning his “call” to bring you home, too. You might desire to reconnect with your cousins the Jews and the Biblical portrayals on what is and may be happening in your near future.

Introduction

The fate of the Ark of the Covenant has been a burning question pondering Bible scholars, theologians, biblical historians and archeologists since the exile of the Jewish people to Babylon in 586 BCE.

The most prominent of these is Vendyl Jones and his search for the Qalal and the Sanctuary of the Congregation with its valued treasures including the Ark of the Covenant with its two golden cherubim.

The most well- known account is found in the Maccabean story about the Prophet Jeremiah, who hid the contents of the Wilderness Tabernacle (Mishkhan);

The Ark of the Covenant,
The Qalal which held the ashes of the red heifer in the Valley of Achor near the tomb of Moses (Moshe) not far from Mount Nebo.

These were hidden because fate of the Temple of Solomon (Beit HaMikdash) was being threatened by the forces of Nebuchadnezzar, which many felt was built on the Temple Mount (Haram As-Sharif) in present-day Old Jerusalem.

Over a century ago, Rabbi Rachnael Steinberg and Rabbi Mendel Tropper rediscovered the writings called the Emeq HaMelekh (Valley of the Kings) written by Rabbi Naftali Hertz in which several mishnahs were recorded by five temple guardians who hid the treasures of Solomon’s temple.

Later, it was Solomon Schechter who discovered the ancient Talmud Tosefta, called the Massakhet Keilim in an ancient Genizah at the Old Cairo Ben Ezra Synagogue.

Included in this discovery was an ancient scroll called the Temple Scroll that was purchased by Yigael Yadin. It was found in a cave by Mohammed Dieb near the Essene community of Qumran by the Dead Sea.

Also discovered was:

The Copper Scroll,
The Luach Nehoshet,
Plus, two large engraved marble tablets found at Mount Carmel, that depicted the hiding of a vast hoard of temple furnishings and artifacts about ten years before the first invasion of Nebuchadnezzar.

The Jewish Underground Commandos from the Temple of Solomon were sent on a rescue mission to hide all the temple furniture, the altars and the golden curtains that were a part of the priestly ministry in the Tabernacle of the Dwelling.

These five-priestly commandos are today legendary in their stealth and prowess to accomplish the mandate to safeguard the Treasures of King Solomon’s Temple. Their names were:

Shimur HaLevi,
Chaggai (Haggai) the prophet,
The Prophet Zechariah son of Iddo,
Zedekiah (Zidkiyah)
Hezekiah (Hizkiyah) plus
Ezra the scribe and
Baruch son of Neriah, the scribe of Jeremiah.
The leader of this group, Shimur HaLevi, was one of the priests who killed two of
the nine red heifers for the Ashes to purify the temple.

Jeremiah and the Maccabean account of hiding the Tabernacle and the Ark as Viewed from Mount Nebo

As recorded in 11 Maccabees chapter 2:

1 – “It is also found in the records, that Jeremy the prophet commanded them that were carried away to take of the fire, as it hath been signified:

2 – “And how that the prophet, having given them the law, charged them not to forget the commandments of the Lord, and that they should not err in their minds, when they see images of silver and gold, with their ornaments.

3 – “And with other such speeches exhorted he them, that the law would not depart from their hearts.

4 - “It was also contained in the same writing, that the prophet, being warned of G-d, commanded the tabernacle and the ark to go with him, as he went forth into the mountain, where Moses climbed up, and saw the heritage of G-d.

5 – “And when Jeremy came thither, he found a hollow cave, wherein he laid the tabernacle, and the ark, and the altar of incense, and so stopped the door.

6 – “And some of those that followed him came to mark the way, but they could not find it.

7 – “Which, when Jeremy perceived, he blamed them, saying, As for that place, it shall be unknown until the time that G-d gathers His people again together, and receive them unto mercy.

8 – “Then shall the Lord shew them these things, and the glory of the Lord shall appear, and the cloud also, as it was shewed under Moses, and as when Solomon

Jeremiah and the Maccabean account of hiding the Tabernacle and the Ark as Viewed from Mount Nebo

Let us analyze this text briefly. It is one position of BibleSearchers to analyze any ancient document with the same respect we would give to modern historical documents. As a historian, one should look carefully at the historical context, the purpose and goal of the author and with an acceptance that the author had possible access of documents more contemporaneous with his era than has survived the ravages of time.

Here the prophet Jeremiah speaks of taking the wilderness tabernacle, the Ark of the Covenant and the Altar of Incense and placing it in a hollow cave near Mount Nebo, the mount where Moses had his last vista of the Promised Land and visions of the future of God’s people.

Deuteronomy 34:1-3 - “And Moses went up from the plains of Moav to the peak (Pisgah) of Mount Nebo, facing Jericho, and G-d showed him all the land of Gil’ad, to Dan, and all of the Naftali, and the land of Efrayim and Manashe, and all the land of Yehudah, as far as the sea, and the Negev, and the plain; the Valley of Jericho, city of palms, as far as Zo’ar”.

Mount Nebo in the land of Moab, present day Jordan, has been identified with Jebel Nebah on the eastern shore and the northern end of the Dead Sea, five miles southwest of Heshbon.

The Memorial Site of the Death of the Moshe on Mount Nebo

At about 2,643 feet in altitude and with its position overlooking the Jordan River, Nabo commands a view of all of western Palestine. Below are the plains of Moab where Balaam cast his curse upon the tents of Israel spread out before him.

According to II Maccabees, the ‘cave dwelling’ was in the vicinity, but not necessarily on the peak of Mount Nebo, which also is an assumption that it is the place where Moses “went up and beheld God’s inheritance.”

Near this Mount and with clear visibility of the church that resides on the peak of Mount Nebo is the Cave of the Column, where the main archeological digs have been performed by Vendyl Jones, Texan archeologist who earned international fame as being the archetype of the Indiana Jones movie, “Raiders of the Lost Ark”. It was his Institute that was credited in discovering:

The Holy Anointing Oil and the
Holy Incense that was used on the Altar of Incense in the Most Holy Place of the Temple.

Two places in the Maccabean passage it speaks of other documents, such as “found in the records” and “contained in the same writings”. What were these documents and what records were contained in them? This question has taunted the minds of scholars and students of Hebrew history for millenniums.

It was a memorable year, 1947, when the modern State of Israel became the national homeland of the Jewish people. That same year, 1947, an Arab Bedouin with a well-placed rock in a cave opening in an area called Qumran, on the northeastern shore of the Dead Sea, heard the shattering of a crock of pottery and the religious and secular world ricocheted with a global reverberation as the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered.

As quoted by the Bedouin cave hunter, Mohammed Dieb,

The Rolled Copper Scroll

"I do not know how the story got started that I was throwing rocks at my goats. My goats were grazing down there in the flat. I was sitting right up there on that ledge.

I was bored and started throwing rocks against some big stones to see if I could break them. One rock glanced off of a stone and went into a small opening and I heard a strange thud and a cracking sound.

I came down and slid into the opening. The whole cave was full of jars. There were forty jars, but they were all empty except the ones here in the niche on the right side. We found seven scrolls. One of them was the scroll that Yadkin got from Kendo." Mohammed Dieb

Five years later, in 1952, in cave 3 (Qvj3) at Qumran, a new archeological find was unearthed by the workers under the dig supervision of Professor Gerald Harding, a seven-foot copper Scroll was discovered. Dubbed the “Copper Scroll”, it was kept in secret and the contents of this discovery were withheld from the public for four years.

In this Copper Scroll, the ancient name of Qumran, Ir-Tzadok B’Succaca was recorded. Ancient maps of the Dead Sea area depict the modern Wadi Qumran or the Canyon of Qumran rather as the Wadi Succaca.

The Luach Nehoshet (Copper Scroll)

The Copper Scroll in the Museum in Jordan

The Adam Smith Bible Dictionary in the early 20^th century identified Wadi Qumran as Wadi Succacah. The Yishiyim (Essenes) would have called their community by the ancient Aramaic name of Ir-Tzadok B’Succaca rather than the modern Arabic name of Qumran, meaning, ‘Two Moons”.

The Copper Scroll was pressed from the purest of copper. From the back of the scroll and engraved in reverse script, the Hebrew letters when raised from the front and imprinted on a baked clay imprinted the script in legible Hebrew like the embossing of a printer’s ink pad on a sheet of paper. This scroll was taken to Manchester, England, the baked clay dissolved and the copper rolls cut to expose the archaic Hebrew writing on the corroded copper sheets.

Most of the text in the Copper Scroll read like the inventory of a treasure with enigmatic descriptions of where they were buried including listings of geographical, topographical and geological features to help the one knowledgeable in the language and vocabulary of the rabbinic literature to find the treasures outlined in the scroll.

When the transcription was first released with wide international publicity, it was also met with intense scholarly skepticism, many calling it a ‘hoax’, a ‘forgery’, ‘Jewish myth’, ‘works of a madman’.

The Caves of the Dead Sea Scrolls in Qumran, Israel

Most scholars, even to this day, feel that the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Copper Scroll are a repository of the Herodian temple library in Jerusalem and the contents of the Temple of the Lord that were secreted away prior to the destruction and ravaging by the Roman forces under Titus in 68-70 C.E.

Yet the contents of the Copper Scroll depict a different picture. Here among the passages of the Copper Scroll was an inventory of the Holy Treasures that appeared to have been hidden by the Prophet Jeremiah and the Temple Guardians prior to the destruction of Solomon’s Temple by the Babylonians about 422 BCE according to Hebrew calendar time (538 BCE on the Gregorian calendar).

Were the locations of these treasures never revealed and recovered for the services of Zerubbabel’s Temple by the Temple Guardians? If so, are they there today? Among the contents of the Copper Scroll was this passage.

The Copper Scroll describes a hidden cave called the “Cave of the Column by the River of the Dome” and with these descriptions were given internal and external landmarks, layering levels and other descriptions that not only needed the proper interpretive codes to reveal their contents, but also a good knowledge of the history and rabbinic language used in that era.

The Discovery of the Emeq HaMelekh (“Valley of the Kings”)

Was this Copper Scroll the “record” and the “same writing” as referenced in the II Maccabean passage?

Jewish scholars still felt that there were more records to be found. The hunt continued, but it was not until 1992 when Rabbi Rachnael Steinberg with his student Rabbi Mendel Tropper discovered in Amsterdam, Holland the long-lost writings called the “Emeq HaMelekh”, meaning the Valley of the Kings, that had been written by Rabbi Naftali Hertz Ben Ya’acov Elchanon in the year 1648 in Amsterdam.

According to rabbinic history, “Rav Hertz” was known as a prominent and holy Rabbi who excelled in the knowledge of the written and the oral Torah. His lineage of rabbinic knowledge came from the famed Rabbi Ari Ben Luria, leader of the rabbinic mystical sages which included the great Torah sage, Rabbi Yosef Cairo, author of the Shulchan Aruch.

According to the records, Rabbi Naftali Hertz cited as his source the Massakhet Keilim, a Tosefta (addition) to the Talmud, which is not found in any modern Talmud today.

According to the discoverer of the Emeq HaMelekh, Rabbi Steinberg, in the Talmud Huriot 12A, it describes the prophet Jeremiah, realizing that the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple was imminent, organized a heroic rescue operation.

He commanded the King of Judah, King Josiah, who had recently repaired the Temple of Solomon and found the ancient writings of the Torah hidden in the Temple;

To hide the Ark of the Covenant,
The bottle of Anointing Oil,
Aaron’s Staff and the
‘Chest’ sent by the Pelishtim (Philistines) to Israel as “a gift to the God of Israel”.

Rabbi Tropper, also citing also the Babylonian Talmud in Tractate Yoma 72 A, stated that the Mishkhan (Wilderness Sanctuary) and all its contents were hidden away but will one day be found.

Yes, here the Mishkhan, or Wilderness Temple, which was built by Bezaleel in the Negev Desert, under the supervision of Moses and the blueprint given to him by the L-rd of hosts on Mount Sinai, was kept in a sacred repository in a grotto under the Temple of Solomon and was still preserved in the days of Jeremiah and King Josiah.

In an article written by Rabbi Tropper, he writes the following:

"This house of worship ("Mishkhan") contained

(1) - The altar for the daily and seasonal sacrifices,

(2) - The Elaborate Menorah (candelabra) of solid gold,

(3) - The Qalal (copper urn) containing the Ashes of the Red Heifer, and;

(4) – The numerous other vessels utilized for the detailed services of the Kohanim (priests).

Within the Mishkhan's inner chamber, the Holy of Holies could be found:

(5) The magnificent Ark of the Covenant containing among other sacred items,

(6) The Tablets of the Ten Commandments brought down by Moses at Sinai. Because of these sacred contents and the level of holiness attained by the Prophet Moses, only the Mishkhan reached a pure enough state to warrant that the Shechina (Divine Presence of G-d) come to rest within it for all eternity.

When the First Temple was built in Jerusalem, the Ark of the Covenant was placed inside while the rest of the Mishkhan was buried beneath in a secret vault."

The story does not end. Later in the 1990’s, at Cambridge University was discovered work done by a Solomon Schechter in 1896, who had bought about 100,000 pages that had been discovered in a Genizah of the ancient and revered Ben Ezra Synagogue in Cairo, Egypt. ccording to the Torah, any document contained the name of the Holy One could not be destroyed, so when it was damaged or too old to be used, it was put in a document depository called a Genizah. The documents within the caves of Qumran were also suggested as being a Genizah depository for the Essenes or Herod’s Temple in Jerusalem.

The reason being that Qumran was suggested as being a Genizah is that every book in the Torah, Writings and the Prophets, plus countless other intertestament writings and commentaries were represented in the Qumran library except the Book of Esther, the only book written by or about the Jews that does not give the name of G-d.

Within the scrolls found in the Ben Ezra Synagogue’s Genizah in Cairo, Egypt was found a copy of the missing Tosefta, listed under the section of Keilim (‘Vessels’) and noted to be the same source writings that Rabbi Hertz was citing in his 1648 Mishnayots. The only difference, these source writings were believed to be from the 8^th and 9^th century, 800 years earlier.

Rabbi Naftali (Ben Elchanan) Hertz, called these records Mishnayots and were included in the introduction of his text. The Mishnah as the rabbinic written documentation of the oral traditions passed down by the Levites from the time of Moses is the first section of the Talmud, which also includes ‘the summary’, called the Gemara.

Let us now read these Mishnayots, now accepted as ‘the records of Jeremy’ the prophet; called the Emeq Ha Melekh

English translation by the Vendyl Jones Research Institute

[Literally: Valley of the King]
By Rabbi Naftali Ben Ya'acov Elchanon
Jewish Year 5408 (1648 C.E.)

“These Mishnayot ["Records"] were written by five righteous men. They are:

Shimur the Levite,
Hizkiyah,
Zidkiyah the Prophet,
Chaggai the Prophet and Zechariah, son of Ido the Prophet.

They concealed the vessels of the Temple and the wealth of the treasures that were in Jerusalem which will not be discovered until the day of the coming of Moschiach, son of David, speedily in our times, Amen, and so it will be.”

Let us quickly compose ourselves quickly with the implication of the introduction to these Mishnahs. Four of the names are easily recognizable; Hezekiah (Hizkiyah), Zedekiah (Zidkiyah), Haggai (Chaggai the prophet) and Zechariah the Prophet, son of Berachiah (Mishanah 2), son of Ido.

Other names found within these Mishnahs include: Shimur HaLevi (the Levite), Ezra the Cohen (priest) the scribe, Hilkiyah the Scribe (Mishnah 7), Beruch ben (son of) Neriah with Zidkiyah (Mishnah 9 and 10), and Hiluk, the son of Shimur HaLevi (Mishnah 12).

Shimur Ha Levi’s identity is still unknown in the Hebrew Scriptures, but the name, Shimur meaning ‘watchman” attested on an ancient seal impression, appears to be closely identified with the name Shimur, great, great-grandson of Aaron, from the house of Merari. (1 Chron. 6:46)

The Merarites were the family that was in charge of the singing in the House of the Lord by King David, after the Ark was moved to Jerusalem. (1 Chron. 6:32).

Yet this Shimur HaLevi was soon recognized as the leader of a quintet of Jewish Revolutionaries: Shimur the Levite, Hizkiyah, Zidkiyah, Chaggai the Prophet and Zechariah son of Ido the Prophet.

They were intent on fulfilling the commands of the L-rd given to Jeremiah the Prophet to hide and secrete the treasures of the Wilderness Tabernacle and a large part of the treasures of Solomon’s Temple away before the military forces of Nebuchadnezzar could take custody of them to Babylon.

Whereas the Essenes were the custodians of the documents of Qumran in the 2^nd century BCE to the 1^st century CE near the Dead Sea, these documents, were authored or co-authored by Shimur HaLevi;

One was writing on an Ibex Skin,
One on a seven-foot Copper Sheet baked in porcelain clay,
One, a Silver Scroll, yet to be discovered and the;
Latter writings engraved on two white marble tablets, which included the names and date of the Solomon’s temple commando, which accepted documents antedate the Essene community at the time of the Temple of Herod era in the 1^st century BC to CE by five centuries. They stand as a class of writing by themselves.

The Temple Scroll, called the Ibex Skin Scroll was found at Qumran in 1950 in Cave 11, by the same Bedouin, Mohammed Dieb, who found the Dead Sea Scrolls in 1947 less than 25 meters away.

This scroll was also documented as being written by Shimur HaLevi in the Year 431 BCE.

An extensive document, which multi-volumes have been written by the Dead Sea Scroll scholars, it was initially purchased by Yigael Yadin for the Nation of Israel at the end of the 1967 Six Day War and published in 1983.

Professor Yadin was fascinated by the wording of the author, who wrote the script in the First Person, suggested by some authorities that it was a dictated script given by the Lord of hosts to Moses on Mount Sinai.

In the Ibex Skin “Temple Scroll” Scroll, was recorded a detailed account of how to re-institute the Temple services and the rituals. The descriptions of these furnishings described are felt by many scholars to be a description on how to put these buried treasures to use in the service of the G-d of Jacob in a future third temple.

Included in the Temple Scroll are accounts of the ancient Hebrew festivals which were celebrated by the Essenes, but also instructions of the animal sacrifices that were not celebrated by the Essenes. As such, this document is not accepted by some scholars as a true Essene document, but a treasured document which was a part of their extensive library.

The Israel Museum and the Ancient Biblical Scrolls

Did the Essenes totally reject animal sacrifices? Yes and No! They rejected the sacrifices of the priests in Herod’s Temple as being from a false and corrupt High Priest not of the lineage of Zadok, the High Priest of King David. No, they may not have rejected animal sacrifices as long as the pure and authorized lineage of priests were in charge of the temple services, but the modern Order of the Nazorean Essenes who trace their spiritual heritage to the Essenes of Qumran claim that in the Panarion written by Epiphanius;

"The Nasaraeans - they were Jews by nationality . . . They acknowledged Moses and believed that he had received laws - not this law, however, but some other. And so, they were Jews who kept all the Jewish observances, but they would not offer sacrifice or eat meat. They considered it unlawful to eat meat or make sacrifices with it. They claim that these Books are fictions, and that none of these customs were instituted by the fathers. . . (Panarion 1:18)

Shimur HaLevi, along with being credited as a co-author of the Copper Scroll from Qumran and author of the Ibex Skin “Temple” Scroll, a third document attributed to Shimur HaLevi that was discovered in the archeological digs of Israel are two immense Marble Tablets. Its whereabouts were unknown so began hunt and eventual discovery of these two large Marble Slabs, originally on Mount Carmel of the Prophet Elijah fame.

The Two Marble Tablets

Soon the archeological hunt continued to the basement of a museum in Beirut, Lebanon, when two large Marble Tablets, found initially at Mount Carmel, were now discovered in the summer of 1952 museum renovations. (Implications of the discovery were not recognized until years later).

The ancient Hebrew script was written in bas relief, just like the Copper Scroll, in that the letters were protruding out of the marble instead being engraved within the marble. As Rabbi Avraham Sutton noted, the writings carved on the two Marble Tables were identical to the writing on the Emeq HaMelekh (Valley of the Kings) and the missing text of the 9^th century document, Massakhet Keilim, found in the Tosephta Mishnayot III under the section of Kilim in the Genizah of the Ben Ezra Synagogue in Cairo, except for the opening statement,”

“These are the words of Shimur HaLevi, the servant of HaShem. In the year 3331 of Adam”.

Yet this same Shimon HaLevi still seems to warrant a distinction of why he is not recorded in scripture. We have one more clue; we shall soon see in the Mishnah 5 in the Tractate Parah, it lists the number of red heifers that were sacrificed since the time of Moses.

After noting that one of the red heifers was burned by Ezra the Levite, then it records that and additional two red heifers were burned by Shimon Ha Tzaddik. Shimon the Levite had now become Shimon the Righteous One or Zaddik.

Zedekiah (Zidkiyah) is a name meaning ‘Yahweh is righteousness’. This sounds familiar, as we identify it with the name of the last king of Judah, King Zedekiah, who reigned from 597-586 BCE.

His original name was Mattaniah, but was changed to Zedekiah by King Nebuchadnezzar, when he appointed him king instead of his nephew, Jehoiachin (2 Ki 24:17; 1 Chr 3:15).

He was a morally weak and vacillating king, who at times appeared to side with the prophet Jeremiah, who was his grand-father, who also was pro-Babylonian.

He even went to visit Babylon in the 4^th regnal year, in what some historians suggest was for the great festival of Nebuchadnezzar in which he erected his golden statue in the Plain of Dur as recorded in Daniel 3; the era of Daniel and the three worthies; Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, who were thrown in the fiery furnace during that event.

King Zedekiah later upon returning to Jerusalem succumbed to the pressure of the anti-Babylonians and the pro-Egyptians and rebelled against Babylon.

This resulted in the 3^rd capture in 20 years and final destruction of Jerusalem after a long and appalling siege between 10^th day of the 10^th month in the 9^th regnal year (January 15, 588 BCE) and the 9^th day of the 4^th month in the 11^th regnal year or Nebuchadnezzar’s 19^th year (July 19, 586 BCE.).

His sons were killed in front of him and then his eyes were removed from their sockets and he was imprisoned in Babylon the rest of his life. (2 Ki 25:1-7; Jer 39:1-7; 52:1-11)

There was also another Zidkiyah who was a prominent leader noted in the assembly brought together by Nehemiah, the governor of Judah, who with Ezra the Cohen and scribe set out a series of religious reforms (Nehemiah 8) which culminated in the reading of the Torah and the teachings contained within it.

Governor Nehemiah then convened a great assembly to sign a covenant of reform. This included the prominent civil leaders, the cohenim (priests) and Levites and all the people of Jerusalem.

Zidkiyah was the first of the civil and political leaders to set his seal to Nehemiah’s covenant of reform. As such he was designated as the 1^st representative of the people after the governor, Nehemiah. (Neh 10:1) Was this the Zidkiyah of the Emeq HaMelekh?

Chaggai (Haggai the Prophet), “One born on a Feast Day.”

Haggai (Chaggai) the prophet, meaning ‘one born on a feast day’, became one of the most potent prophetic voices to the newly return exiles from Babylon to Judea. In his five messages recorded in the Book of Haggai, he encouraged the people that they were in active cooperation with the Lord of hosts and that their faithful service would be richly rewarded by their G-d.

With the resounding response to his first message on August 29, 520 BCE, the clarion call went out to rebuild the House of the Lord which lay in ruins (Haggai 1: 1-12)

It appears that he was a senior citizen in Judea, a revered grandfather of the returned exiled Jews.

What they may not have known, Haggai was one of the guardians of the treasures in the Old Temple of Solomon (Haggai 2:3) when he challenged his contemporaries, “Is there anyone among you who saw this house in its former glory? You can almost hear him say the obvious, “I did”.

As we shall soon see, he was one of the guardians of the Temple Treasures, a memory that was sealed within his memory to his death. While the people mourned that the new temple did not have the glory of Solomon’s (Sholomo’s) temple, the whereabouts of the treasures that could have increased the glory of this Temple was known, but the Lord of hosts would not allow it to be revealed until a future and more glorious temple in the future of history of the Jews. Why did he not reveal were the hiding places for these hidden treasures to the leadership of Judea so they would eventually be restored into the house of the Lord in Jerusalem?

Zechariah, son of Iddo, “Jehovah remembers at the Appointed Time”

Zechariah, the Prophet, the son of Iddo’s life has been accounted for in the Oracles of Zechariah, a commentary on the Book of Zechariah. What we now know as the “rest of the story”, Zechariah was not only a contemporary of the prophet Haggai, the renown civil leader Zidkiyah, Hezekiah, and Shimur, the Levite, a possible member of the temple chorus were all accomplices in the secret and delicate espionage of hiding the treasures of the Temple of Solomon not only in the land of Judea but also in the city of Babylon and also near the city of Baghdad.

Wait a minute, the capital of Iraq of Saddam Hussein was the purported site of the repository of hidden treasures from the era of Solomon’s temple? Yes, this is the implication of this document that has been preserved in the archives of the Jews for centuries.

Not only that, it was the intent of the five Guardians that the wealth of these treasures would remain concealed until ‘the day of the coming of Maschiach, son of David. It was their hope that the coming of the Maschiach ben David would have been ‘speedily in our times’, but as we now know, they carried their secret to their grave except for the legacy recorded on these Mishnayots, there was another record.

This team working in concert with each other, they inscribed the inventory of these ‘holy vessels and the vessels of the Temple that were in Jerusalem’ on a “Luach Nehoshet” or a Copper plate or sheet, hoping it would be preserved until the end of times and prior to the coming of the Messiah (Maschiach).

Shimur HaLevi engraved in bas relief on two immense marble tablets the same mishnayots for the sake of preservation of the record.

Special Edition: The First Lamb from the Speckled and Spotted Flock of the Patriarch Jacob in 2000 years has now been Born in Israel.

Destination Yisrael has been ardently following the saga of the redemption of the Speckled Black and White Sheep from the flock of the Patriarch Jacob. Now the first lamb born in the State of Israel in over 2000 years has now been born.

Genesis 30:32 – “I will pass through all thy flock to-day, removing from thence every speckled and spotted one, and every dark one among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and of such shall be my hire.”

The first Jacob’s Lamb was born in the land of Israel for the first time in over two millennia. This lamb’s auspicious birth came last month in the Jordan Valley. As revealed by One of Israel’s Torah Code sages, very precise instructions have now been uncloaked in the sheep’s role in bringing forth the Third Jewish Temple and its sacred mission.

It was last November, 2016, that 119 of Jacob’s Sheep arrived in the land of Israel after a 2000-mile journey across Western Canada to Eastern Canada. They were then sent on special air flights by El Al, the Israeli National Airline from Canada to Israel.

The sheep are such a rare breed that high level international cooperation took almost a year to complete before the sheep arrived in the Land of Israel. Now, Destination Yisrael is delighted to share the first birth announcement of the 1^st baby lamb born in the Land of Israel since the days of our Patriarch Jacob.

Jacob went to Laban’s homeland in Padan Aram near Haran in Mesopotamia

These sheep are specially known for their genetic purity. They came from the flock of Jacob’s uncle, Laban, in Padan Aran, who lived in the land of Mesopotamia. The arrival of sheep genetically pure from the sheep in Patriarch’s Judah’s flock as he left Laban’s homeland in Mesopotamia have now returned home to the lands of their patriarchal sheep herders.

These same sheep later “went down” during an era of great famine in the Middle East to Egypt. At this time, the 70-member family of Jacob traveled to Egypt under the protection and guardianship of Joseph, the Vizier of Mitzsrayim (Egypt).

This rare flock of precious sheep, 119 in all, have now returned to the ancient land of Canaan, now the State of Israel. This type of sheep is very robust in health as they were genetically cloned by the Patriarch Jacob when he herded the flocks of Laban in the watershed rivers in Mesopotamia.

Biblical experts now believe this unique breed, originally raised by Jacob over 4000 years ago, accompanied the Hebrew family of 70 into Egypt. Over several generations the Children of Israel eventually sunk into slavery in ancient Pharaonic Egypt.

After the Exodus from Egypt, the flocks of sheep wandered in the wilderness with the Children of Israel after their encounter with the G-d of Israel at the mount called Sinai. Later, after settling in Canaan, the tribes of Manasseh, Gad and Reuben lived on the eastern side of the Jordan River (in the regions of Syria and Jordan today). After the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temples of Solomon and Herod the Great, the sheep spread to Northern Africa.

It was the Moors in Northern Africa along the Mediterranean coastline that traded the sheep to Spain. The Spanish royalty then shared them to Ancient Britain where the British baronial families used them on their “parklands” with their manor homes in the country.

Since that era, the sheep have been considered a “heritage breed” as their genetic lineages remain pure and they can thrive in desert climates and are unique by having 4 to 6 horns.

It was in the end of May, 2017 that Gil Lewinsky was contacted by Simcha Treister, a Bible Code expert in Safed on the Galilean coastline, who discovered a hidden role of Jacob’s sheep in the era of the New Holy Temple. Simcha Treister described his unique method in using intervals in the entire TaNaKh (Bible) that were based on date timing. As Simcha Treister described his code breaking revelations:

Simcha Treister – “I searched intervals of 5777 letters in the Bible, since that is this year in the Hebrew calendar. The word tzoan (“flock” in Hebrew) appeared in this interval, perpendicular to the word “Gil”, the owner’s name. Directly above these words is the word ‘Moshiach’ (Messiah).”

The Biblical Code for “Flock”, “Gil” (Lewinsky the owner) and Messiah (Maschiach)

When the hidden message code included the name of “Gil” the owner of the flock, he called Gil Lewinsky and gave him the exciting message. The “flock of sheep” were coded together with the owner’s name, “Gil” and completed with the Hebrew word, Maschiach the name of “Messiah”.

The sheep are now home near the Jordan River. Jacob’s Sheep finally made aliyah to the Land of Israel. One hundred and nineteen sheep first made a 2,100-mile journey from their original home in Vancouver in Western Canada to Eastern Canada where they were quarantined.

Now all 119 sheep are safely home after flying from Canada to Israel. They traveled in eleven separate flights after their quarantine was completed in Canada.

The challenges were formidable, but the Lewinsky family, creating a not for profit farm to maintain the flock of sheep have now opened the gates for the International world to participate in the public campaign to maintain their not-for-profit flock. In an effort to raise funding, they have launched a public campaign to help in the expenses called ‘Name a Lamb’.

As early as 1550 BCE, the Hebrews living in Egypt were in the throes of a major catastrophic era that catapulted them into to a new era: redemptions from slavery and restoration to the Land promised to their forefather, Abraham. This was the land of Canaan in the land of Israel today.

On the day of redemption, when the “blood” of the slain lamb was sprinkled on the door post, the “first born” of that family was saved from the avenging angel of death passing over Egypt. The march to a new life also began with eating of the paschal lamb on that first Passover. While the Passover is HaShem’s Passover (Exodus 12:11, Leviticus 23:5, Numbers 28:16, and II Chronicles 35:1), we can also call it the Hebrew’s Passover.

Almost a thousand years later, the remnant of the Hebrews was being redeemed from their 70 years of bondage in Babylon and Persia. Here the Judeans (Jews) from the southern tribes of Judah and Benjamin returned to resettle Jerusalem. Now, new ways of observing the Torah festivals were instituted and with it the Passover Seder as we know it today.

The modern Torah Seder is not the same that the Hebrews observed while in Egypt and the Sinai desert. Babylonian influence, such as the Seder egg, crept into the more primitive Palestinian Seder rites that soon disappeared after being augmented by the influence of the Babylonian Haggadah.

In a way, we can call the modern Passover Seder a Jewish festival where the instructions on how to practice or perform this Seder is spelled out in instructional manuals, called “The Haggadah”.

Was it not the commands of the Go- of Israel at Sinai, who stated?

Leviticus 23:5-6 – “On the fourteenth day of the first month at twilight is the Lord’s Passover. And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord.” (See also Numbers 28:16-17)

When Moshe (Moses) was in Egypt, he was given special instructions that the Israelites were not to hold a festival in the land of Egypt. Therefore, Moses went to the Pharaoh seeking permission to go to the land of Goshen so that the Israelites could a festival.

Exodus 5:1 – “Afterward Moses and Aaron went in and told Pharaoh, ’thus says the L-rd G-d of Israel: ‘Let My people go, that they may hold a feast to Me in the wilderness.’”

Why was such a strange command given by G-d to Moses? Was it His divine purpose just to say, “I won’t permit it?” The reality appears that HaShem, the G-d of Israel did have a divine purpose for He intended to deal with the Pharaoh, the representative of Egypt’s divine god, Ra, person to Person. He did not want the Israelites to become involved, so that none of them would be hurt or killed.

A festival by the Israelites in Egypt would have been offensive to the Egyptian priesthood. The festivals would have been celebrated with animal sacrifices and grain sacrifices, yet the Egyptians worshipped the animals and the grains as their deities. It was these deities that the Israelites were going to sacrifice to the G-d of Israel. Such an act would have been detestable with the Egyptian priests of Ra and could have provoked the death warrant for Moses and many Hebrews.

Exodus 8:25-26 – “Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, ‘Go, sacrifice to your G-d in the land.’ And Moses said, ‘It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing the abomination of the Egyptians to the L-rd our G-d. If we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, then will they not stone us? We will go three days’ journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the L-rd our G-d as He will command us.’”

The Egyptian Temple in Dendura where the goddess of Hathor resided in the Days of the Exodus

Was not the goddess of Hathor in Dendura portrayed as the sacred cow? Was not the sacred bull that was worshipped as Apis, the actual embodiment of Ptah, Atum-Ra, and later Osiris to the Egyptians?

These bulls were housed in the temple for their entire life, then embalmed, and given their funerary rites while being encased in giant monolithic stone sarcophagi in the Serapeum at Saqqara.

Even the grain sacrifices of the Hebrews would have been offensive, for Nepri was the grain god, Ermutet was the goddess of the crops, and the jackal-headed Anubis was the guardian of the fields. Above all, was Osiris, a member of the Egyptian sacred trinity, was the god of agriculture. Now the Israelites were going to sacrifice the Egyptian gods to the Almighty One of Israel.

Yet, the Passover was held in Egypt. Why? The Passover was a memorial, not a festival, to an event that occurred in Egypt. It would also point to a more profound event that would occur in the future. The mood of Passover was symbolized by pain and suffering. On the afternoon of the 14^th day of Nisan, the Hebrews were to sacrifice their favorite unblemished lamb, the best of their flock.

For the Hebrews, who did have faith (emuna) in the sovereignty of their G-d, the blood of this lamb was to literally “save” the firstborn sons of their family and the firstborn of all their sheep, goats, and cattle. It was take a lot of faith, emuna, to believe their Sovereign G-d in asking them to do such an incomprehensible task; slay the lamb, take the blood and put it on the doorpost of their dwelling and their firstborn sons and animals would be saved from death.

The shadow-picture in Egypt to the Israelites was now about to see its complete fulfillment sixteen hundred years, or 40 generations later. Only a few hours after the Last Supper, the “Only Begotten” firstborn “Son of G-d” would be impaled, like the Korban lamb, His blood splattered on the upright wooden tree (stake) so that all the world, who had “emuna” (faith) in the sovereign G-d of Israel would be saved from eternal death.

John 3:16 – “For HaShem so loved the world, that He gave His only Begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life. For HaShem did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world, through Him, might be saved.”

Passover compared with the Festival of Unleavened Bread

While the Passover was a Memorial Day symbolizing suffering and death, the Festival of Unleavened Bread was a celebration of joy for the Hebrews. Their days of slavery and servitude to the Egyptians were over. While the Passover had only one sacrifice, many sacrifices were to be offered these seven days during the Festival of Unleavened Bread, as an aroma that was pleasing to the Almighty One of Israel.

Numbers 28:24-25 – “In this manner you shall offer the food of the offering made by fire daily for seven days, as a sweet aroma to the L-rd; it shall be offered besides the regular burnt offering and its drink offering. And on the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work.”

While the 14^th day of Nisan was day of Passover, the 15^th day of Nisan was the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread. There were several distinctions that separated the Passover from the Festival of Unleavened Bread.

The Passover was a memorial of suffering and grief, while the Festival was a festival of joy.
The Passover was a work day. It was a preparation day for a memorial that would culminate in a feast of bitter-delight. The first day of the Festival was a High Sabbath, like the Seventh-day Shabbat, in which no work was to be done.
While the Passover was a work day, buying and selling was done in the temple bazaars, where the lambs were purchased to be used for the memorial feast, the High Sabbath of the Festival, was a Shabbat, where buying and selling was prohibited.
The Passover was highlighted by one sacrifice, the Pesach lamb, the blood of sacrifice for salvation from death, and a meal of bitter-sweet remembrance. The Festival was highlighted by many sacrifices that were to be a delight to the Lord.
The unleavened bread at Passover was to represent the slain life of the Pesach lamb looking forward to the future slain “body” of the Korban Pesach Lamb of G-d that was without sin (Matthew 26:26). The unleavened bread at the Festival was to represent “sincerity and truth” in our relationship with the divine with a transparent life without the leavening of sin.
The Passover was a memorial that was to be observed by only the circumcised Hebrews while the Festival of Unleavened Bread was a festival open to all participants; circumcised and uncircumcised; Jews and Gentiles alike. (Exodus 12:19 vs. Exodus 2:43)

Yet, something happened, when the Jews were taken to Babylon in the 6^th century BCE. The Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread began to merge into one festival. This historical fact is confirmed by the Encyclopaedia Judaica:

Encyclopaedia Judaica – “The feast of Passover consists of two parts: The Passover ceremony and the feast of Unleavened Bread. Originally, both parts existed separately; but at the beginning of the (Babylonian) exile, they were combined.” (Encyclopaedia Judaica, Vol. 13, p. 169)

Passover in the Days of the Rabbi called Yehoshua Ha Notzri (Jesus the Nazarene)

By the time of the first century, when Prince of David called Yehoshua began his rabbinic yeshiva in “Halachic Torah observation’, there was practiced during the Passover Festival season several different times in which the Passover Seder was observed.

In as much as Prince Yehoshua (Joshua) was a Jewish rabbi, the practice of a Passover Seder would be whether He accepted the traditions of the Sadducees (“Sunrise Reckoning where the day begins at sunrise”), the Pharisees (“Sunset Reckoning where the day begins at sunset”), the Essenes (the Passover was always celebrated on the eve of Wednesday, per their (solar calendar), or the Galileans and other pilgrims from the Diaspora where a “Double Passover” was observed.

It was a little more complex, as the Pharisees in control of the synagogues and religious education in Judea in the days of Jesus were from the School of Shammai.

The Pharisaic traditions of the Essenes were probably more closely akin to the revered School of Hillel the Great. Here is where we see the great debates of Rabbi Yehoshua who sided with the Pharisees of School of Hillel.

Yehoshua was challenging the halakhic rulings of the Pharisees of the School of Shammai, in defense of the Hasidic Pharisees of the School of Hillel the Great.

To add even more complexity, Yehoshua the Rabbi was from Galilee, and could have observed the “Double Passover Seder” per the traditions of the Galileans in the Diaspora. Yet, as a Hasidic rabbi, who followed the Torah, above the letter of the law, the Prince of David and now Rabbi Yehoshua adhered more closely to the Passover observations of the great Rabbi Hillel and his Av Beis Din, the “Father of the Court” of Hillel’s Sanhedrin; Menahem the Essene.

Therefore, Yehoshua may have observed the Passover in a manner closer to the non-sacrificial observing, vegetarian Essenes who rejected the corrupt “traditions of men” by the Pharisees of the School of Shammai and the corrupted temple sacrifices by the Sadducee high priests.

As the month of Nisan, it was the month in which the Festival Year of the L-rd began. Per the biblical commands of the L-rd, it was to begin on the sighting of the “New Moon” over Jerusalem, called the Rosh Chodesh Nisan (First day of the month of Nisan).

Yet, there were neither telecommunications nor international media to notify the Jews around the Roman Empire, or the Babylonian Diaspora that the Jewish Passover season had now begun.

Pilgrims coming from Babylon had to make personal preparations in advance in order to participate in the Temple of King Herod Passover season in Jerusalem. Knowing with great certitude when the festival would begin was of great importance.

Even the sighting of the New Moon could have been in question, so a “Double Passover” began to be observed; on the 15^th and 16^th days following a 29 day month, and the 14^th and 15^th days after a 30 day month.

Either way, the 15^th day of Nisan was observed as the “High Shabbat” of the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The last day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread was also a “High Shabbat”, or a second “Sabbath” which made the Festival of Unleavened Bread an eight-day festival like the fall Festival of Sukkot (Feast of Thanksgiving).

Model for the Calendar of Events on the Passover on 30 CE

On the 1^st day of Nisan in 30 CE, the signal flares spread from Jerusalem to the Euphrates Valley where most of the Jewish pilgrims came from. As explained in the Mishnah in Rosh Hashanah 22b:

Rosh Hashanah 22b – “At first they used to kindle flares, but after the misleading deeds of the Samaritans it was decided that messengers go forth...And where did they kindle the flares? From the top of the Mount of Olives (they signaled) to Sarteba, and from Sarteba to Agrippina, and from Agrippina to Hauran to Bet Baltin (a Babylonian city near the Euphrates). They did not go beyond Bet Baltin, but there the flare was waved to and fro and up and down until a man could see the whole diaspora before him like a sea of fire.”

During the next 14 days, we witnessed the following: the Passover Lamb was selected in the fields on the 10^th day, and brought into the city of Jerusalem, just after Yehoshua strode in through the northern Damascus Gate on a donkey into the city of Jerusalem to the awaiting throngs of pilgrims with palm branches, waving and shouting, “Hosannah to the Son of David, Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the L-rd. Hosannah in the Highest” (Matthew 20:1-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-40; John 12:12-19)

The next three days (10^th, 11^th and 12^th), the Pesach Lamb was inspected for its ritual purity within the courts of the temple. At the same time, the Lamb of G-d was inspected for His theological and Torah observance purity according to the Torah: the Law given to Moses.

During these three days, Yehoshua had virtual control of the temple as the people were flocking to witness the healing physical, and spiritual power of the Galilean rabbi who brought in living color how the “kingdom of G-d” could become a living reality someday in the future when the “Era of the Messiah” will begin.

On Tuesday evening, the 13^th of Nisan, the Nazarene met with His disciples in the Essene Quarters, and there in the Upper Terrace over the Tomb of King David, he as a human being participated in a Passover with his disciples without the Pesach Lamb, ala vegetarian per the customs of the Essenes in Qumran, in what we know today as the Last Supper.

When the Last Supper was over, Yehoshua with His disciples left for the final time, towards the Mount called Zion. Yehoshua was now outside the protective custody of the Essenes. Together they walked down the paved Maccabean pathway near to the gate near the Palace of the High Priest, and then down into the Kidron Valley and beyond.

They were going to a place where they could rest in the garden district of the Mount of Olives looking directly towards the temple of Yahweh. The night was one of agony, broken with the sounds of an armed multitude.

The hopes of the messianic fulfillment for the redemption of National Judah from Rome were on the verge of being crushed. Bound by a mob, Yehoshua was taken back to the palace of the high priests where he would undergo interrogation, torture, imprisonment and abuse.

On Wednesday, the 14^th day of Nisan, as daylight began to break over the western slopes of the Hills of Moab east of Jerusalem, Yehoshua was taken to the Council of Hewn Stones, where the Great Sanhedrin met in an emergency meeting, near the high priest’s temple residence.

Here Caiphas was residing in ritual purity for the preparation of the lambs that were to be slain on the temple mount that day. It is estimated that upwards to 300,000 lambs were prepared to be eaten by the Jewish pilgrims over the next twenty-our hours for the three million Jewish Passover participants.

It was on Wednesday evening, the eve of the 15^th of Nisan, per the traditions of the Sadducee’s, that the first Passover Seders were conducted. This was in observance to the Temple calendar that was in the control by the Sadducees ruled by the families of the high priests, the House of Ananias.

As the Passover lamb was being slain on the court of the Temple at the ninth hour, the Pesach Lamb of G-d was hanging from a tree with a cross-arm gallows in fulfillment of the commands of the Torah:

Deuteronomy 21:20-23 – “And they shall say to the elders of his city, ‘this son of ours is stubborn and rebellious; he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.’ Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones; so you shall put away the evil from among you, and all Israel shall hear and fear.

If a man has committed a sin deserving of death, and he is put to death, and you shall hang him on a tree, his body shall not remain overnight on the tree, but you shall surely bury him that day, so that you do not defile the land which the Lord your G-d is giving you as an inheritance; for he who is hanged is accursed of G-d.”

This sounds reminiscent of the charges by provocateurs that were placed against Yehoshua. These charges would later set the stage for the accusations that He would face during the interrogation proceedings, imprisonment in the Palace of the High Priest, and the trial later in the Great Sanhedrin that eventually led to His acquittal but eventual conviction of death for blasphemy by the High Priest Caiphas of the House of Ananias:

Matthew 11:19 – “For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors, and sinners!’ but wisdom is justified by her children.’”

With the Passover festival was over, the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread arrived on Thursday, the 15^th of Nisan. As ruled, according to the “Double Passover” traditions, the Diaspora Jews continued to arrive from Galilee and the Babylonian Diaspora.

The 15^th day the Passover was celebrated and supported by the Shammaite Pharisees. This second “sunrise” Passover influenced by the Babylonian pilgrims would be celebrated twenty- four hours after the traditional “sunset” Sadducee Passover Seder, on the 14^th of Nisan.

By the 16^th of Nisan, Friday, the preparation day for the weekly Shabbat, Yehoshua had been in the tomb for two nights and two days. Then Yehoshua rested in the grave on the seventh-day Shabbat, the 17^th of Nisan, this time in celebration of the creative act of His Father, who through Yehoshua, the incarnated “Soul of Metatron”, the Angel of the Presence of the Divine who stood as the defense attorney before the Court in Heaven in the 7^th Heaven of the Tiferet of the Sefirot of the World of the Divine.

The Pesach Traditions of the Last Supper

In the Syriac Didascalia Apostolorum 21, there was reported an ancient tradition that Yehoshua ate the Pesach meal on Tuesday evening, the eve of the 13^th of Nisan. He was later arrested on Wednesday and crucified on Friday. (J. Danielou, “The Dead Sea Scrolls and Primitive Christianity” (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1958, rep. 1979, 26-29; J. Jeremias, “The Eucharist Words of Jesus” (New York: Charles Scribner’s Sons, 1966), 24-25; quoted by Kenneth F. Doig, “Doig’s Biblical Chronology – Exact Dating of the Exodus and Birth and Crucifixion of Jesus”)

The ancient third century Syrian Eastern Catholic Christian traditions, called the “Catholic doctrine of the Twelve Apostles and the Holy Disciples of our L-rd”, relate that the Last Supper was a Pesach meal, per the solar sunset calendar of the Essenes.

It was the Essenes and the Hasidim, who opposed the Sadducees as corrupt priests. This Passover Seder even occurred before the slaying of the lambs which happened on Friday as prescribed by the Sadducean Temple Lunar Sunset Calendar; three-days later on the eve of the seventh-day Shabbat.

We also have the ancient traditions of the Essenes that are now more fully understood after the revelations of the Dead Sea Scrolls in Qumran. It was on July 2006, that BibleSearchers introduced the life and works of the Torah giant, Rabbi Yacov Emben, defender of the Torah in the days of the messianic heresy of Shabbatai Zevi, and later the studies on Rabbi Jacob Emden, by orthodox Rabbi Harvey Falk, in the BibleSearchers reflection articles, titled, “Jesus the Pharisee from the School of (Beit) Hillel in the Eyes of Talmudic Scholar, Rabbi Jacob Emden” and “Rabbi Harvey Falk defends ‘Jesus the Nazarene’s Mission to the Gentiles”.

These were later followed up with the articles, “The Essenes, the Hasidim and the Righteous Gentile of the Nations” on September 2006 and “Jesus the Nazarene and the Pharisees of Beit Shammai” on April 2007.

It is interesting that the Last Supper does not reflect any roasted lamb and would reflect a vegetarian tradition, as accepted in the Essene tradition, who felt that the first century temple culture of the Sadducees and the Pharisee of Shammai was corrupted.

It is also interesting that this vegetarian tradition is reflected also in the modern Jewish Pesach Seder, where the Pesach Lamb in symbolized by a lamb shank bone, but no meat is eaten, where we know that the Passover lamb could not be sacrificed in the temple court with the destruction of the Temple of Herod in 70 CE.

During this same era of time, the disciples and followers of the Nazarene were now under the leadership of James the Just, the brother of Yehoshua, who was known for his great piety.

Also during this same era, it is believed that the “House with the Upper Room” was converted into an Hasidic Orthodox synagogue called the “Hebrew Nazarene Ecclesia This ultra-Orthodox synagogue did institute historically a non-sacrificial Passover Seder and festival in the Temple of Herod that was presided by James the Just, the brother of Yehoshua, who represented the Nazarenes as their high priest.

James the Just, in accordance with the ancient literature also became the Nasi of the Nazarene Sanhedrin and served as the High Priest of the of Israel. Clearly the traditions do reflect that the real Pesach Lamb of G-d that was slain, fulfilled the role of the traditional Pesach Lamb.

As the Omens against the Jewish temple service unfolded over the next forty years, the evidence became more clear that the temple sacrificial service presided by the Sadducean high priests was not pleasing to the G-d of Israel and was rejected.

As accounted in the Gospel of the Apostle John, after giving them the re-Newed Covenant with partaking of the Bread and Wine, Yehoshua confronted Judas Ischariot with his demonic mission and offered to him leavened bread sopped in wine in symbolism that the last of the leavening was leaving this upper terrace as the time for the Passover had now arrived in the land.

The Pesach Traditions of the “High Sabbath”

John 19:31, 33 – “Therefore, because it was the Preparation Day, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a ‘high day”), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away…But when they came to Yehoshua and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.”

This apparent insertion into the gospel text, of unknown origin and date, has set the tone and the dating for the death of Yehoshua for almost two thousand years. In the Hebrew traditions, the High Sabbath was called the “Shabbat haGadol” or the Shabbot, or mandatory rest days during festival or feast days. (Leviticus 23:7, 8, 21, 24, 27, 28, 32, 36, and the 39) The weekly seventh-day Shabbat always occurred on the seventh-day of the Jewish weekly cycle-. Yet, the festival “High Shabbat” was a floating Sabbath that occurred any day of the week.

Many Christian traditions later following the Orthodox Roman Catholic Church’s tradition that Yehoshua died on the “cross” on Friday, the preparation day for the Jewish Shabbat. Unfortunately, that acknowledgment of the seventh-day Sabbath by the Christian traditions did not reflect in the Catholic recognition of the sanctity of that sacred day in celebration of the creation of the world, as commanded in the 4^th Command of the Decalogue.

Exodus 20:8 – “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your Go-d. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore, the L-rd blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

The messianic Nazarenes, or the Jewish followers of Yehoshua as their Jewish messiah, could easily reflect that Yehoshua did lay in the tomb and “rested” on the day that He and His Father in heaven celebrated as a day of rest from their mighty “Acts of the Creation” of this Planet Earth.

During the Festival of Passover (Pesach), the 15^th and the 21^st days of Nisan were “High Sabbaths”, yet they did not necessarily fall on the seventh-day Sabbath as they were floating Sabbaths. Yet the days before the 15^th and the 21^st day were preparation days for the festival Sabbaths.

This difference in the interpretations in the “High Sabbath” between the Jewish and Catholic Christian traditions makes a profound difference in the interpretation of which day Yehoshua (Joshua/Jesus) was crucified, or hanged from a tree.

The Christian Catholic tradition has proclaimed that the preparation day before the crucifixion of Yehoshua was on Friday before the Passover Sabbath that was the seventh-day, which happened to be the Jewish seventh-day Sabbath. The Hebrew-Jewish traditions do not recognize the Catholic Christian traditions that the “High Sabbath” was the merging of the Seventh-day Sabbath and the Festival Sabbath of Passover.

Instead the Jews proclaim that the “High Sabbath” was the Festival Sabbath that was on any day of the week, Sunday through Saturday. The Christian Catholic traditions have “High Holy Days” that are associated with their Christian festivals but the Hebrew-Jewish traditions do not have any references in the Torah, the TaNaKh, or the Talmud of any “High Holy Days” associated with the Jewish festivals.

There is yet another interesting “Sabbath” that also is identified with the Passover Shabbat. The “Great Sabbath of Passover” is called the “Shabbat haGadol” or the “Sabbath” that is five days prior to the day that the Hebrews were to leave Egypt.

As recorded in the Jewish traditions and their oral writings, called the Oral Torah, the Israelites were commanded by Moses to take a lamb and tie it to their bedpost on the 10^th day of Nisan.

Suddenly the Egyptian people noticed that a significant number of lambs were being bought on the Egyptian market and inquired why. They were informed that the lambs were to be used as a Paschal Offering, sacrificed in preparation for the next coming plague, the Plague of the Firstborn.

The Egyptian firstborn were inflamed and demanded that the Pharaoh immediately release the Hebrews, which he refused. A civil war broke out and the Egyptian firstborn attacked the Egyptian army of the Pharaoh which resulted in the death of many of the Egyptians that committed atrocities to the Hebrews. Even though the Egyptian priesthood was incensed that the Israelites were sacrificing an Egyptian deity, a lamb, they also were helpless and powerless to intervene.

It is interesting that the day of the “Great Sabbath of Passover”, “Shabbat haGadol” on the 10^th of Nisan in 30 CE, the high priest was returning from the fields to bring in the chosen Pesach lamb. Coincidently, simultaneous to that moment of time, according to the testimony in the 1^st Temple of Herod Era CE” that Yehoshua rode in through the northern Damascus Gate into Jerusalem on a donkey, arriving as a Davidian royal claimant, they were also bringing in the Pesach Land and the historical tradition stayed
that he symbolically became the Pesach Lamb of G-d.

Pesach and the Three Days of the “Sign” of Jonah

It was early in his ministry, the wedding at Cana was over and Yehoshua was heading to Jerusalem with his new disciples in the spring of 28 CE. He promptly went into the temple’s Bazaar of Hanan and there made a very political and provocative move.

He took a “whip of cords” and drove out the servants of Ananus the Elder that were selling the sheep and the oxen for the temple sacrifices. He then threw over the tables and stalls of the money exchequer of the temple as the money exchangers fled in terror from His presence. The exchange rates were now scalping the peasants, while the gold of the Jews was flowing into the Temple of Herod, Inc’s coffers in increasing amounts.

Yehoshua then walked to the sellers of the doves, whose prices had risen to such extravagant prices that the poor “daughters of Israel” were no longer able to redeem themselves and their child in the temple of the Lord and were now pronounced unclean. To the sellers of the doves He shouted:

John 2:16 – “Take these things away! Do not make My Father’s house a house of merchandise!”

The “Jews", whom the Jewish peasants called the “chief priests”, the “temple scribes”, and “synagogue rulers”, the “Pharisees of the School of Shammai”, confronted Yehoshua to question, “What sign do You show to us, since You do these things?” (John 2:18)

They wanted a supernatural sign to prove to them His authority that He had the authority to desecrate the business and temple management system. Yehoshua told them, they would someday see the “sign”:

John 2:19 – “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up!”

Their response was as profound as their lack of spiritual insight:

John 2:20 – “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?”

It was on the road to Caesarea Philippi, north of Galilee, that Yehoshua confronted His disciples with the question, “Who do men say that I am? (Mark 8:16) At that time the populous in Galilee were talking among themselves that the Nazarene was “John the Baptist”, “Elijah” or one of the prophets. He then asked, “Who do you think that I am?” It was Peter, the son of Jonah (Simon bar Jonas), who proudly proclaimed, “You are the Maschiach (Messiah).” (Mark 8:28-30)

Since the days of the kings of the Children of Israel, it has been accepted in Jewish halakha that there can be a “Messiah” in every generation of G-d’s Chosen People. It was King Hezekiah in the days of King Sennacherib when the City of Jerusalem was surrounded by the Assyrian Army who was chosen to be the messiah of his generation. Was not King Cyrus the Great also chosen to be a messiah of his generation, also?

As Yehoshua and his talmidim, Simon Peter, were looking eye to eye, the awkward moment became silent tense, for the Yehoshua then warned them that they were not to tell anyone their feelings about His messiahship.

The Nazarene then began to open to them the revelations about His future mission and the implications upon His and their lives.

Mark 8:31 – “And He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.”

It was near to the close of the Nazarene's ministry. The miraculous feeding of the five thousand had made Yehoshua a popular folk hero to the Galilean peasants. The account of the transfiguration of Yehoshua by the chosen three disciples had made Him a messianic hero to His chosen twelve.

He then sent out his seventy chosen disciples, who may have later made up His Nazarene Sanhedrin of Seventy to harvest the souls desiring to be participants in the “kingdom of G-d” from the surrounding villages.

They returned from reaping the harvest for souls to be put into service for the one they believed was the “Messiah of their age”. When they returned, they told of stories of their power over the agencies of Satan. The thrust of the messianic mission of Yehoshua was quickly expanding.

Then in Jerusalem, He was healing a person who was aphasic, or could not speak. He was called a “mute”, and the cause of being unable to speak, and the thrust of His healing was by casting out a demon from his body. Yehoshua was immediately attacked as being “Beelzebub, the rule of the demons”, and wanted to know His “Sign” for His healing authority.

Matthew 12:39-42 – “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except for the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and there nights in the belly of the great fish, so a will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

A Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater one than Solomon is here.”

The “Jews”, (temple and synagogue leadership) after His death and resurrection, were now able to reflect upon the “Sign of Jonah” that was sought by the temple rulers, Pharisees, and scribes. Spiritual understanding was now to be transformed into a literal reality.

From Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday day and night, and whole day of the Seventh-day Shabbat (Sabbath), Yehoshua a lay in the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea.

With the temple guards protecting the exterior of the tomb to prevent the disciples from stealing His body, Yehoshua arose in a second cataclysmic earthquake, one in which the bowels of the earth would give up Yehoshua as the “first fruits” of the “dead” along with a whole company of resurrected saints that were later carried back to that other dimensional realm where the Temple of Heaven was located.

The sun was setting over the horizon and the preparation day for the Sadducean Passover was about to begin. The disciples were clueless on what was about to shatter the reality of their life.

They had been learning how to be in covenant with the G-d of Israel with their Hasidic Master, who lived a life of Torah above the letter of the law. They were now given a re-Newed covenant, not a New Torah, that was coupled with the sacrificial offering of the Pesach lamb and the redemption of bondage from the slavery of sin. They began to wonder, what was coming next?

Yehoshua sat back on His sofa in the upper terrace and with his talmidim (disciples) surrounding Him sitting on mats on the floor, began a lengthy discourse. He would send their minds to the throne of the Almighty One, revisit the relationships of the World of the Divine, and begin to dismantle their messianic anticipations that were premised only on the salvation of the Jews and the Zionistic anticipation of a global messianic State of Israel.

************

Seeing is believing! For over 2000 years, the world has been affixed with the drama of those few years of time that a single solitary Prince of the esteemed dynastic lineage of Kings David and Solomon shook up the then known world at that time.

His life literally became a “Drama of the Ages” that evoked such a passion in the lives of not only the entire peasantry class of Jewish people, but his fame swept across the entire Middle East changing and transforming all the inhabitants of that era.

It has been stated in hundreds of different cultures that the world as we know today would be totally different if it were not for this one life, for out of his one life, one who was a Neshama Yehudi (Jewish soul) affected so many variant cultures that out of his spiritual loins rose Three Major Religions of the world; Judaism, Christianity and over six hundred years later Islam.

The era of man is standing now on the brink of the seashore waiting to be passed through the inter dimensional veil of the “World to Come.” The day is coming soon when we will break through that inter dimensional barrier and stand on the beach of a “New World” and a “New Age” as the rising Light of the age called the “Era of the Messiah” raises to its glorious manifestation.

The day is coming soon when Hashem the One G-d of Israel will stretch forth His great hand of judgment and cleanse the earth from the great pollution of man upon Planet Earth. He will take away the “blood oaths” from between the mouths of the Palestinian Arabs, He will restore the Land of Israel back to “Am Yisra’el”, that means both the House of Joseph (All Ten Tribes of the House of Israel), and the House of Judah.

He will then redeem and restore His own “sheep” back into a living relationship with Himself. If you are chosen, as a Lost Tribal Member of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, your destiny is to return to your Homelands first in Shomron (Samaria), Israel.

Jewish Rabbi in Israel states that the World is 98% ready for the Messiah

Eden Lost – Eden ready to be Restored

The Spiritual History of Man in the Garden of Eden

The Messianic End Times is quickly enveloping the whole earth. What we are seeing is the devolution of all we consider is our spiritual and physical reality. Unknown to most of us is the fact that in the geographical and spiritual center of Planet Earth is the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

Today, the “sacred space” is being restored and rearranged by the G-d of Israel. He is recreating the entire landscape in the Land of Israel, preparing it for it final Tikkun and for the redemption of all mankind.

When Adam and Chavah (Eve) made a mistake, and chose to eat the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, Eve first, and later Adam, they as a “one couple” severed their spiritual “light bodies” away from the inner or mystical teachings of the Tree of Life. As the Torah, itself hints, these teachings became obscured, like luscious fruits hidden within thick outer skins and hardened shells.

The spiritual level of elevated 4^th dimensional consciousness which Adam and Chavah had perceived before eating of the Tree of Knowledge was now concealed darkly. Their “light” bodies were now clothed in material “garments of skin.”

Their angelic “light” bodies which glowed from within was because they were but a reflection of their perfected stated of existence that was increased by the 7^th dimensional divine radiance that radiated or emitted from the Throne of the Divine. This was how awesome were the “Light Bodies” that the first couple were created with as they lived in the garden called Gan Eden.

Now like a dark blanket that covered and obscured their vision, they were no longer able to behold the World of the Divine. They were now clothed in material “garments of skin.” The Godly light that reflected from within their spiritual bodies allowed for them to envision or “in vision” with a higher level of spiritual perception, also, enveloped their brain’s sensory and spiritual perceptions. They could literally perceive or envision a spiritual universe “from one end of the universe to the other”. By their “mistake”, their elevated state of consciousness was now occluded like a spiritual cataract dimming the vision of their eyes.

Moshe and the Sapphire Tablets of the Ten Commands

Back in the “Garden”, the Tree of Life was surrounded and encased by the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. That awesome Oneness they had experience was broken and fragmented. Because we are familiar with nothing but fragmentation, it is impossible for us to image the trauma they experienced.

In a literal sense, the Tree of Life disappeared and went “underground.” Adam and Chavah (Eve) now received teachings that were appropriate with their lower level of human consciousness that they manifested because they chose to eat from the Tree of Knowledge. It was not that the “Tree of Life teachings” had disappeared, but like the human soul in our body, our access to it had become limited and indirect.

This theme continued to be repeated when the Torah was given from the Mount called Sinai. It was later given in a different spiritual plane of manifestation with the presence of the two Temples in Jerusalem.

The Jewish tradition state that the original Luchot haBrit (Tables of the Covenant) and the original Torah that was received by Moshe from the Ein Sof upon Mount Sinai was the Torah of the Tree of Life. Yet, even as the Children of Israel, at that moment in earth’s history when as the new “Nation of Israel”; their consciousness and our consciousness as the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel was not ready to receive it.

When Moshe came down from the mountain with the First Sapphire Tablets, the Children of Israel were involved in idol consciousness of the golden calf variety. The Torah says that Moshe threw the Tablets down when he saw the people dancing around the golden calf.

On a deeper level of sod, the esoteric and mystical meanings as given through inspiration and revelation, what occurred at that time, the letters which HaShem had inscribed in the Tablets flew heavenward. As such, the Tablets became so heavy that they fell from Moshe’s hands and broke.

The letters on the Tablets, the Tree of Life, could not exist near the degraded consciousness of the golden calf. Instead, we were vouched a second part of Tablets that corresponded to the Tree of Knowledge. The “fragments” of the original Tablets were hidden in the Ark of the Covenant alongside the Second Tablets.

The Tree of Life teachings were still there, but like the soul in our body, but our access to these teachings had become obstructed. Thus, a second opportunity had been lost for us to connect ourselves directly as a nation with the teaching of the Tree of Life.

So today, our job is to reconnect the Tree of Knowledge to its source in the Tree of Life. For one thing, this means that behind the fragmented reality we perceive there is an awesome Oneness that is waiting to be revealed. The One-ness is never obliterated by the fragmentation it spawns, it is only hidden.

Recently, in a packed audience in a Synagogue in Jerusalem, Rabbi Mendel Kessin gave a two-hour lecture. It began with the recreation of what he describes as “The Divine Plan”. This is where the One-G-d of Israel declared his intension to rectify this planet for redemption and why after 2000 years, that original plan of redemption was changed. Here we read about this recreation of G-d’.

Rabbi Mendel Kessin

Rabbi Mendel Kessin – “In the original plan of Creation, the one to do tikkun, which means to rectify creation, to dematerialize the universe, originally God wanted mankind to do the job. Not the Jews, but all Mankind.

The job of tikkun (literally, (“fixing”), which was first assigned to Adam in the Garden of Eden, was to elevate physical existence into spiritual existence. We need to create, or retransform, a physical universe into a spiritual universe.

That ultimately becomes Olam Haba (The World to Come) and that’s the world we will exist in for eternity. That’s the purpose of man. To remove the physical barrier in-order to make this universe spiritual.

G-d gave to man Tikkun Devices to complete the Process of Spiritualizing our World.

However, after 2000 years without success, God reassigned the task of tikkun from mankind globally to the Jews specifically and gave the Jewish people three strategies, called “tikkun devices”, to accomplish the job.

The first tikkun device that God gave to the Jewish people was to help them transform the lower physical world into a higher spiritual world was mitzvoth; the 613 Biblical commandments. These are the rules, such as keeping the Sabbath, eating only kosher food and avoiding evil speech, that govern Jewish behavior in all circumstances.

God decided that He would give us humans a commandment and when you observe that commandment, a mitzvot, you will therefore dematerialize the universe.

Knowing that all Jews would not keep the mitzvoth at all-times in history, God created a second tikkun device, which he called teshuva (repentance). Teshuva is a tool Jews have-to undo their sins and return to God after they sin.

However, knowing that not all people would do teshuva, God created a third tikkun device, called yesurin (suffering). Suffering is not a retribution for some sin you did, but a way of diminishing the physical and elevating the spiritual, which is the work of rectifying the world.

For the purposes of preparing the world for the Messiah and redemption, suffering includes personal problems such as poverty, sickness, loss and so on. It also includes national suffering inflicted upon the Jewish people, such as persecution, exile and anti-Semitism.

Millennia of Jewish suffering, along with Jews who have done God’s will in the form of mitzvot and teshuva, have helped bring the world to a state of 98 percent readiness for the Messiah today.

What is the purpose of-all-of this preparation? As Rabbi Kessin told the audience, all of human history has been about preparing the world to receive God’s goodness. “God created the universe to bestow an infinite amount of goodness on a human being… What God wants is that you should be attached to Him.

For humans to be attached to God is the endgame of the redemptive process. Today, humanity is closer than ever to achieving that closeness.”

So, it appears that truly, the end-of-days is at the turning junction of transforming mankind who have proven to be “safe-to-save”. We will return into our prior spiritual existence as Adam and Eve once lived thousands of years ago.

This august era that is on the cusp to arrive as the “Era of the Maschiach (Messiah), this era will be associated with the preparation of this Planet Earth to evolve into the soon to come; the 4^th dimensional consciousness of Adam and Eve who did live in the Garden of Eden.”

The Ascendant Spirit of G-d is now Resting over the City of Hebron, Why?

Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron

If we were to determine what would be the most important city in the entire world from the perspective of the G-d of Israel, those who love the Land of Israel and the Holy Ones of Israel; that city would not be Jerusalem; it would be the City of Hebron.

War games today are encircling the Land of Israel with the intent to take control of the world and Jerusalem. The vortex zones are where the satanic forces of darkness are battling it out with the angelic forces of light under the command of Metatron and Michael the Archangel.

It was in the fall of the Jubilee Year of 5776, the Jewish people in Israel were celebrating the end of the Jewish High Holiday Season of Sukkot on Shemini Atzeret Simcha at Torah on Tuesday, October 25, 2016. At the same time they were welcoming the end of the Jubilee Year, yet unknown to the rest of the world, we were ushering in the “Era of Melekh Ha Maschiach” the Era of King Messiah.

The very next day, UNESCO, the United Nation’s Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization passed an archetypical and blatant resolution unveiling its pure anti-Semitic core belief denying the historic Jewish identity to the Biblical sites in Israel.

UNESCO began its resolution by identifying three sites in Israel by their Arabic names, in essence claiming that they were not of Jewish but rather Arabic or Islamic origins.

The Al-Haram, the Temple Mount overlooking the Archeological Gardens which may have been the site of King Herod’s Temple

Al-Haram (Temple Mount), the Temple Mount in Jerusalem that is recognized as the site including the surrounding archeological gardens of the first Temple called Solomon’s Temple, the second temple called Zerubabbel’s Temple that was later enlarged as King Herod’s Temple. The later was recognized as being the largest and most opulent temple in the entire world.
The Tomb of Rachel, the second wife of her cousin Jacob and the mother of their two sons, Joseph and Benjamin which identifies firmly the epic ideal that the Jews of the House of Judah and the Lost House of 10 Israel’s end time identity are inseparable.
The Cave of the Patriarchs called the Cave of Machpelah in Hebron.

The city of Hebron, according to YIshai Fleischer, who is the international spokesperson for the Jewish community in Hebron is only a 30-minute drive to the east of Jerusalem.He revealed that while the Temple Mount on Mount Moriah is where Abraham was prepared to sacrifice his only son, Isaac, it is also recognized as the place where the Creator G-d of Israel created Planet Earth. This site will soon become the Solar Rex capital of the Universe.

It was in the city of Hebron where monotheism arose from the loins of Abraham, a Sumerian potentate. As a child, Abram was secretly whisked away from the ancient death threat of Nimrod which upon Abram’s birth and as an asteroid became an omen in the heavens where Nimrod believed that this young babe would destroy he and his dream to rule the First One World Order.

It was ten generations earlier that in the days of Noah that the Great Flood inundated the whole earth. After another 9 generations, the babe Abram was now secreted to the land where Noah and his 9^th generation grandfather, Shem the Melkizedek (righteous king) were still living in the region nearby to the foothills of Ararat by the Ark of Noah. It was here where Abram first learned of the wisdom of the ancient ones and the One G-d of the Universes.

It was also at Hebron where the “root from which all humanity was born”, and the “Sprout of the Messiah” gave birth to King David, who established Israel’s first capital at Hebron, that created the later genetic lineage where the future Messiah, the descendant son of King David would rule again over Greater Israel.

Yet, nearby on top of the hill called Admot Yisai (Tel Hebron) is also the traditional site where the King David’s grandmother, Ruth, and his father Jesse (Yishai) today are buried.

Yishai Fleischer, the International Spokesperson for the City of Hebron

According to Fleisher, it is the Jewish tradition that the city of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount is where the Garden of Eden was once located created by the hands of the Creator G-d of Israel as their home in Gan Eden. To the east of Jerusalem, underneath the Cave of Machpelah in Hebron is the resting place where Adam and Eve, along with the ancestral fore-parents of monotheism, Abraham and Sara, Isaac and Revecca, along with Jacob and Leah are all buried in the Cave of Machpelah. This is why it is called the “Cave of the Couples.”

The City of Hebron was located at the Entrance and Exit of the Garden of Eden

Adam and Eve cast out of Gan Eden at Hebron

Genesis 3:24 – “After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.”

Also, according to Yishai Fletcher, this same exit was also the entrance to the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve first entered called Gan Eden. Later they were cast out of this ancient paradise when they made the mistake to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil where the Nachash (serpent) first tempted Eve and Adam acceded.

Think about it. The entrance and the exit to the Garden of Eden were both located at Hebron.

So today, with the constant international pillaging of the globalists trying the destroy the ancestral history of the Jews and the Lost Israelites of 10-Tribed Israel, we are seeing the rise of the enemies of the Jewish people, fulminated by the dark forces of evil who have incessantly continued over the last few months under the mantle of UNESCO to discredit the history of the Jewish peoples and uproot the Biblical and Jewish claim to all the Biblical Heartland of the Patriarchs of Israel. As Yishai Fleischer stated;

Yishai Fleischer – “Our enemies know that the way to uproot the Biblical and Jewish claim to Israel is to remove its history from world knowledge. People are not sensitive to the fact that if, God forbid, the Jewish community of Hebron, which has had its presence here from time immemorial, is delegitimized or destroyed, the Jewish claim to any part of the Holy Land will not be far behind.”

In the city of Hebron, there are 90 Jewish families living in Hebron with over a hundred thousand Palestinians. For decades, innumerable number of families have sought to move and live near the holy city of Hebron.

While the Jewish inhabitants in the settlements are strong willed and healthy, the weak-willed government of the Netanyahu government, pummeled by the intense international pressure by Hillary Clinton, Obama’s first, the 67^th Secretary of State (2009-2013) who with their now exposed corrupt Clinton Foundation tried to prohibit further housing and settlement expansion.

Later came Obama’s second, the 68^th United States Secretary of State, John Forbes Kerry, the Jewish JINO (Jew in Name Only), from 2013 to 2017 who continued to raise incessant international pressure against the Patriots and Pioneers of the Jewish Settlement Movement in Shomron (Ancient Kingdom of Israel).

The Futuristic Greater Israel restored as the Commonwealth of Israel

Understand, this same land in Samaria is where the capital of the Kingdom of Northern Israel was located at the fortified walled capital in Samaria. This was the same region where King David set up his kingdom, the United Kingdom of Kings David and Solomon, whose empire extended from the Nile River in Egypt to the Tigris and the Euphrates in the Middle East. This kingdom was world renown as the ships of Solomon and David plied all the oceans of the world.

It was the final anti-Semitic vote of UNESCO when the American Secretary of State, John Forbes Kerry refused to block the vote of the 70 Nations of the world to limit any Jewish settlement activity in the Biblical Heartland of Israel. This also included limiting any building in the city of Hebron and eventually create Hebron as Judenrein (lack of Jewish presence. What a travesty!

The stagnation of growth in the city of Hebron has not been because of the irresistible tenacity of the settlers in the region of Samaria, but rather the timidity of the Jerusalem government under the rule of the Prime Minister of Israel and the control of the Israeli government. There has remained a long list of Jewish families who wish to live in the holy city of Hebron. As Fleisher noted:

Yishai Fleischer – “People must understand that their resilience and dedication to Hebron keeps the city open to all religions. It is our duty to support them, both in the political arena and with our resources.

Next to the city of Jerusalem, Hebron hosts nearly 800,000 tourists a year because of only one reason, the strength of the Jewish families living in Shomron and Judea and the long list of families wishing to move into the city of Hebron. This also testifies to the resilience and dedication of the pioneering Jewish patriots in Shomron. There is only one reason to comprehend this historical fact.

The spiritual ascendency of the Jewish patriots and pioneers is now being perceived in its fullest manifestation. As the showers of the early rain began right after the closing of Festival of Sukkot in Israel, the bountiful measure of the “early rain” was only a spiritual atmospheric manifestation opening up the gates of heaven portraying the angelic forces of heaven surrounding to protect the city of Hebron.

Hebron is on the brink of preparing to open up this entire region to thousands of arriving Jews fleeing from Germany as the European Union is facing its bleakest future since World War II that devastated the entire continent.

This time, the pathway of redemption will not just be for the Jewish people fleeing in aliyah to the State of Israel. It is also a preliminary vortex as the gates of heaven are opened as promised by the G-d of Israel for when man here below raises himself up in spiritual anticipation to meet their messiah, they will lunge through the vortex into the futuristic 4^th dimensional world of spiritual elevation as promised by G-d.

Many regions of Israel are visualized by those who have not visited the Land of Israel to perceive that it as a land of violence. This is the globalist view of what they want you to believe.

These same visitors are later overwhelmed by the unexpected peace, calmness and beauty in Hebron. This is credited to the indomitable will of the settler families in Shomron and Judea, the bravery of the Israeli soldiers for Hebron’s wonderful and expected ambiance.

The Hebron Jewish population who live in peaceful harmony continue in their resilience to push back the spiritual forces of evil of the enemies of the One G-d of Israel. The endurance of Hebron comes because here is where King David erected his first altar to the Almighty One of Israel and that legendary domineering force of King David lives here today and also in their future.

The Divine Messianic Mission has been revealed with the Arrival of Jacob’s Sheep to the Land of Israel

The 4 Horned variety of the “Jacob Speckled and Spotted Sheep” were genetically created by the Patriarchal geneticist called Jacob son of Isaac (Yaakov ben Yitzhak)

It was in the summer of 2016 that Destination Yisrael posted a fascinating article on the discovery and the messianic implications of the restoration of the biblical sheep back to the lands of the Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, titled, “Patriarch Jacob’s Sheep discovered, now prepared for Aliyah to the Land of Israel and herald the Future Messianic Era of Spiritual Enlightenment.”

Destination Yisrael - “It was in the year of 2014 that Jewish newlyweds, Gil and Jenna Lewinsky began a new journey, they never expected to make. Both at the age of 31, they met and married in Jerusalem. Jenna worked for the Israeli foreign ministry and her husband Gill was a freelance journalist who worked for the Jerusalem Post.

After one year of marriage, they chose to return to the birth roots of Jenna in native South Africa. One year later they moved to Canada the homeland of Gill in the western regions of the Pacific coastline of Canada in Vancouver. Here they dreamed of becoming cattle ranchers.

It started out as a Valentine surprise when Gil gave a new bunny to his wife, Jenna and soon they had a nest full of bunnies and a new reality of life. They realized that birthing calves as cattle ranching was not their cup of tea and neither were bunnies, but the hand of the Divine opened up a new door to their lives.

First went the bunnies when they discovered an adopted mother, yet during the transition, the same women whom they received the bunnies was looking for someone to adopt some sheep. These were sheep so rare and so special that their genetic testing suggested that their ancestral origins were once in Sumer and the Middle East. Now with clues from the Torah, there soon arrived a flock of “spotted and speckled” sheep just like the flocks that Laban gave Jacob as payment for the services the Patriarch Jacob; the ancestral forefather of the 12-Tribes of Israel.

The Agility of the Lambs of the Jacob Sheep Strain

This article was widely accepted internationally. Elisabeth Gelb, an associate of Jenna and Gil Lewinsky in Abbotsford, BC, sent us a note of appreciation with further insight of the mission of the international evacuation of about 119 of Jacob’s “spotted and speckled” sheep to the Land of Israel.

They expected that they would initially begin settling into their new home called Heritage Farms in the region of Galil (near the Sea of Galilee). Eventually they were preparing to flourish in the futuristic era of King Messiah with the restoration of the “Commonwealth of Israel” across the Levant from Egypt’s Nile River to the west over to the Euphrates River to the east. As Elisabeth Gelb, an associate with Gil and Jenna Lewinsky earlier wrote to Destination Yisrael:

Elisabeth Gelb – “No doubt, by now you have heard the exciting news of the historic return of the Biblical Yaakov Sheep to Israel by September 2016. In May, my husband and I met Jenna and Gil Lewinsky on their property in Abbotsford, BC. They are the couple who realized the significance of the Sheep of Yaakov Avinu and set about to return them home to Israel.

No small feat, as they had no prior farming experience! Despite ongoing challenges (permits, medical testing, vaccinations and local anti-Semitism) they have prevailed. To overcome bureaucracy in both Canada and Israel, is nothing short of a miracle!

In fact, Canada is not on the approved list to import livestock to Israel, but the Yaakov Sheep were granted One Time Permission! In August, the Yaakov Sheep will be trucked from BC to Ontario for one-month quarantine; then on to Israel (El AL Israel Airlines partially subsidized flights).

Additional expenses include building crates for flight, inoculations, vitamins, vet bills, barn rental, feed and medical testing to satisfy both countries. Once in Israel, Yaakov Sheep will live on a Heritage Farm near the Galil. Their wool will be used for tzitzit and tallit and horns for shofarim (not meat consumption).

The return of the Sheep is causing a worldwide sensation, especially in Israel and the momentum is growing, as it becomes closer to reality. Jenna and Gil are working tirelessly with selfless devotion.

They will make Aliyah with the Sheep and dedicate their lives to their care in Israel. To reach Israel, they need $54,000(fifty-four thousand dollars Canadian) This amount will cover expenses to Israel and allow the Lewinsky's to focus on the immediate challenges, without additional stress of fundraising.

We hope you will see the historic opportunity and mitzvah and participate in helping return this beautiful flock of 120 home. There have been countless miracles so far, and we need a big miracle now.

"Baa-aliyah": BRINGING the Jacob Sheep To ISRAEL

The 2,000-year saga of the return of Jacob’s sheep to the Holy Land has only begun as prophesied in the Book of Ezekiel.

Ezekiel 34:12 – “I will deliver them out of all places whither they have been scattered in the day of clouds and thick darkness.

The Transportation of the 120 Jacob’s Sheep from Abbosford, Canada, near Vancouver to a farm about an hour outside the Toronto Pearson Airport began on Friday, July 29, 3016

As reported in The Times of Israel article, titled, “Barreling down the highway with 120 sheep; Who need’s a shepherd’s staff when you have an 18 wheeler?”, the transportation of the 120 Jacob’s Sheep from Abbotsford, Canada, near Vancouver to a farm about an hour outside the Toronto Pearson Airport for quarantine began in earnest on Friday, July 29, 2016.

There crossing the Canadian Rockies was to be one of the most unusual aliyahs in human and animal husbandry history. The modern shepherds did not have a wooden staff in their hands but rather they rested on a steering wheel of a large massive 18-wheeler animal transport vehicle.

A Large Transport Truck became an Trans-Continental Noah’s Ark for 120 Sheep as they traversed across the Canadian Rockies on August 1, 3016; 4,000 km between Vancouver to Toronto, Canada

The 2,500 mile (4,000 kilometers) ten-day journey the 120 sheep began their international trek to a tmporary rendezvous on the eastern side of the Continental Divide; a quarantine farm outside of Toronto, Canada on the eastern side of the North American North American Continent.

After their first quest, and the quarantine was complete to the satisfaction of both the Nations of Canada and the State of Israel, the next preparation was to prepare to “fly on the wings of an eagle” out of Toronto Pearson Airport in route to the Holy Land of Israel.

The Israeli Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development was prepared in their making a special, one-time exception to prepare for this historic biblical return in baa-liyah of the Jacob’s Sheep. Again for the first time in 3,000 years they were traveling to live near the Sea of Galilee (Lake Kinneret) along the base of the Golan Heights.

This was not just an event that occurred but one that was a center of high-level negotiations between the State of Israel and the Nation of Canada.

The sheep were at the center of high-level negotiations between Israel and Canada to allow the Lewinskys to bring the flock to Israel, even though Israel does not allow for the importation of livestock from Canada.

The sheep are today as a special breed called “Jacob’s sheep,” and believed to be the genetic descendants of the breed of sheep that Jacob took from Laban in the book of Genesis.

Jacob’s Sheep now were saying good-by to Canada and Preparing for a Historic Flight on the “Wings of an Eagle” to the Holy Land where the Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob once lived. As reported in April, 2016 in the Destination Yisrael article, titled, “Patriarch Jacob’s Sheep discovered, now prepared for Aliyah to the Land of Israel and herald the Future Messianic Era of Spiritual Enlightenment.”

Destination Yisrael – “As we have taken the story of the reclamation, redemption into the potential redemption of the Lost “Jacob Sheep” back to the lands where the Patriarch Jacob lived, it appears that the finger of the Almighty One of Israel is even more today the “Guiding Force” as the Divine Architect of the Universes opens the doors for the vast Vortex of the Messianic Era of King Messiah to reestablish HaShem’s reign over Planet Earth.

So was it a coincidence as the Lewinsky family was seeking to bridge the international diplomatic “red tape” seeking to restore the “Jacob Sheep” back to the land of Israel, that one of Israel’s most ardent defenders of the “Divine Mandate to settle the land”, Jewish Home MK Uri Yehudi Arial, was placed in the one governmental position to make the future reestablishment of the rebuilding of the Beit HaMikdash (Holy Temple) and the sacrificial services of sheep, goats and cattle a living reality.

Not only that, MK Uri Yehuda Arial was also given by the G-d of Israel, the strong voice of MK Avelet Shaked, a secular Zionist whose prime mission through the Jubilee Year of 2016 was to redesign and establish a legal structure for all the land plots in Shomron and Judea whose legal status has not been determined to organized these plots of land and any prior documented prior ownership of the land will someday be revealed prepared for legal transfer to Jewish or Lost Israelite possession.

Though a secular Jew, MK Avelet Shaked appears to have an open and spiritual mind, a vision of providing legal propriety rights to owners of all lands in the “disputed regions”. This would allow the residents of Judea and Samaria to own the legal title and Deed of Trust of land ownership that will be secured by the State of Israel so that all private ownership of land that have a legal “Deed of Trust” will remain secured by the Israeli Supreme Court.

Yet one of the greatest hurtles the Lewinsky family felt they had to accomplish would be the blessing of the Divine through one of Israel greatest sages of our modern era to bring the sheep to the Land of Israel. And so they were privileged over a year ago to meet one of the greatest of the mystic sages of modern Israel history, the renowned Israeli Kabbalist Rabbi Amram Vakhnin.

In these days of dilemma, of trying to find the spiritual support for their international mission of returning the “Jacob Sheep” back to the biblical heartland of the Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Lewinskys sought the spiritual advice of the famous mystic rabbi, Rabbi Amram Vakhnin of Ashdod, beseeching his advice of whether they were presumptuous on taking on such a noble deed as returning the Sheep of the Patriarch Jacob back to Israel.

This famed rabbi responded that the sheep do not belong to the land of Canada but rather they belong “back to the land of Israel.” Their hearts were rejoicing, but the final part of the rabbi’s counsel was even more profound. As Rabbi Vakhnin continued:

Rabbi Amram Vakhnin of Ashdod – “The sheep must be escorted to Israel by Torah-observant Jews,”

Both Jenna and Gil Lewinsky believed that the mystic rabbi was reaffirming what they had seen their role as the guardians of the “Jacob Sheep, the future “National Animal of the State of Israel.” As Gil Lewinsky stated:

Gil Lewinsky – “We have seen ourselves with the sheep. You have to be G-d fearing and honor the traditions of the Torah to work with the sheep. It is a very special mission to return them to Israel. We agree fully with his advice and insights.

The Sheep can easily cause envy and this is recorded in our TaNaKh (Old Testament Bible) all the way from Laban’s sons in Genesis to Joseph’s multicolored coat that was made from “Jacob Sheep” wool. Rabbi Vakhnin recommended that my wife and I be the shepherds that escort them back to Israel.

This gives us confidence to continue despite any challenges we occasionally face.”

It was in early January 2017 that the last of the Jacob’s Sheep finally arrived in the Land of Israel as they flew over the Atlantic on the multiple flights of the Jewish National Airlines, El-Al. The Lewinsky family were able to find a new home for the Jacob Sheep on in the hilly region of Nes Harim about five miles to the west of Jerusalem and east of Ashdod

Israeli mystic Rav Amram Vakhnin kissed and blessed Jacob’s Sheep who have at last returned to their ancestral homeland. (Adam Alioa)

Renowned Israeli kabbalist’s tzitzit arrived at the new home of Jacob’s Sheep in Nes Harim on Sunday where he blessed the flock in a deeply moving ceremony.

Rabbi Vakhnin was overcome with joy as he picked up each sheep, held them close and kissed them on the cheeks. The animals clearly enjoyed the attention and were drawn to the rabbi, crowding around the mystic.

After an emotional meeting, a very special ceremony took place. Gil and Jenna Lewinsky, the couple responsible for bringing the ancestral flock home to Israel, gathered all the sheep in front of the rabbi. Spreading a tallit (prayer shawl) over Rabbi Vakhnin, the group held each corner of the sacred garment resembling a wedding canopy.

Rav Amram Vakhnin blesses Jacob’s Sheep from under a tallit, resembling a wedding canopy. (Gil Nachman)

From underneath the tallit, the rabbi blessed the sheep that in the merit of the patriarch Jacob, the sheep will be “fruitful and multiply.” As Gill added:

Gill Lewinsky – “The more Jacob’s sheep fill the land, the more blessing will come to Israel.”

“Jacob’s spiritual wealth came from his sheep,” explained Gil. “The more Jacob’s sheep fill the land, the more blessing will come to Israel.”

Rabbi Vakhnin then sat down and privately revealed to the Lewinsky’s their sacred custody of the sheep are now in their ancestral homeland. The Lewinsky’s would be permitted to earn money from the sale of their wool and milk, but that it was prohibited to them the Jacob Sheep for meat.

The Lewinsky couple were then instructed that the couple has a sacred mandate that they were to “increase the herd until the sheep fill the Land of Israel.” As the mystic Rav spoke:

Rav Amram Vakhnin – “The sheep are for the Jews what the buffalo were for the Native Americans.”

Gil Lewinsky quickly caught the message when he stated:

Gill Lewinsky – “Not only do we use their milk and meat for food, but their skin is used to make Torah scrolls, their horns make shofars (horns blown for ritual purposes), and their wool is used to make tzitzit (ritual fringes). When the Torah tells us to bring sheep for a sacrifice in the Temple, these are the [very animals] it is speaking about.”

The Lewinsky’s have been battling bureaucracy, struggling for years to return the sheep and at one point, nearly gave up. On a trip to Israel last year, while searching for a home for their flock they met with Rabbi Vakhnin, a noted kabbalist rabbi.

Gil and Jenna Lewinsky’s dream of returning to their ancestral homeland, reuniting Israel with the ancestral flock, finally came true in early December, and they attribute their improbable success to the kabbalist’s blessing.

The search for a home for the Jacob’s Sheep now began in earnest. The regions around Galil (Sea of Galilee) and the Golan Heights were becoming a potential war zone as the ISIS – Syrian war continued to devastate the entire region of the Middle East from the Jordan to the Euphrates River.

They went to visit a former ostrich farm located in southern Israel but the accommodations for a flock of 120 sheep was minimal for the protection of the sheep and the shepherds. The surrounding regions in the Negev was a harsh desert where wolves and jackals encircled the camp during the nighttime hours; following the scent of the sheep flock.

The water accommodations they discovered in southern Israel was minimal but a generator with two hours of electricity a day was also not enough water to sustain a flock of sheep.

Then just after arriving to the Land of Israel, after Sukkot, the showers of rain came down with abundance in a fierce rainstorm. The sheep shelters began to collapse. The sheep just arriving in a new land were still stressed from their journey from traveling half way around the world. Five of the sheep died including Solomon, the oldest of the rams.

The Mountainous Hills around Nes-Harim,

It was fortunate that the Lewinsky’s discovered Nes Harim (in English, miracle of the mountains), a Jewish community five miles west of Jerusalem. Despite the numerous battles they had to face, the couple expressed their confidence that this must be prophecy come true:

Jeremiah 50.6 – “My people hath been lost sheep; their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains; they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their resting-place.”

The tale of Jacob’s sheep has now come to its resting place. The Sheep traveled across the world from Western British Columbia in Canada to the State of Israel. The search for a new home has now been found. Genetic tests have shown that this breed is originally from the Middle East, and Rabbi Vakhnin told the Lewinsky’s that he knew these sheep were descended from Jacob’s original flock. Jacob’s sheep have returned and it is time for the blessing they bring to be revealed.

With those that have “eyes that can see” perceive on the spiritual planes that HaSHem, the One G-d of Israel is quietly setting in place the restructure and remodeling of Planet Earth. It is now time that the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel, Jews and Lost Tribers alike are on the spiritual plane as a new era of spiritual enlightenment continues to unfold right in front of our eyes.

"Baa-aliyah": BRINGING the Jacob Sheep To ISRAEL

So today, the 219 sheep, except the five who lost their lives in the Post Sukkot floods in 2016 (Jewish year 5777) will become the foundation stock the soon to be built Temple in Jerusalem. As the sheep prosper and are blessed, so according to the Rabbi, the land of Israel will be blessed and prosper.

With this in mind, we must comprehend, that a New 3^rd Temple in Jerusalem will not be completed until the Jacob Sheep productivity of new baby sheep this spring and hereafter are ready for the Divine mandate of sacrifices as we enter the new Messianic Era of the Melekh HaMaschiach (King Messiah) and Jerusalem will become the Solar Rex capital of HaShem’s Planetary Capital in Jerusalem.

This it appears will happen before the long awaited “Messianic Era of King Messiah” is expected to begin during the transition that could begin as early as the beginning fall harvest festivals on Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot.

At that time, we will be in the preparation stage as the “Final Era of mankind” of our “3^rd dimensional consciousness” ends and the “cosmic futuristic era of messianic enlightenment of 4^th dimensional consciousness” as we begin our transformation to our original “Light Bodies” of “Edenic consciousness” as Adam and Eve were in that pristine Garden called Eden.

Can we begin to “open our eyes to see” and refuse to spiritually stay asleep? If your heart begins to palpitate, then you are beginning to perceive the august perspective that the reunification of the House of Judah and the Lost House of Israel is soon; very soon.

Every day from now towards the next High Holiday Season in the fall of 2017, we should keep our personal, visual and spiritual insight focused on the fact that when we hold our hands out in personal support with loving kindness to the Jewish people, we are hastening the coming and the inauguration of King Messiah (Melekh HaMaschiach) and the redemption of All Israel (Klal Yisrael).

Is Donald Trump the modern day Incarnation of King Cyrus the Great?

Is it Donald Trump’s role to Herald the Messianic Redemption of all 12-Tribed Israel

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday congratulated Donald Trump on his election victory, saying the Republican is “a true friend of the State of Israel.” November 9, 2016

On November 8, 2016, one of the greatest upsets in the political history of the United States occurred when Donald Trump, the New York building mogul swept the landscape of the United States away from the Hilary Clinton, the wife of the former President of the United States, William Blaine Clinton.

Don’t even consider that this would have been done except by the nod and the direct intervention of the Creator G-d of the Universes. Now we must ask, where does Trump fit into the prophetic landscape of the prophets of old?

The first question we again ask, “is the new President Elect, Donald Trump the reincarnation of King Cyrus the Great, as written in the TaNaKh (Old Testament) in the prophetic Book of Isaiah?:

Isaiah 45:1 – “Thus says the Lord to His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held – to subdue nations before him and loose the armor of kings, to open before him the double doors, so that the gates will not be shut.”

Here we read it that King Cyrus was HaShem’s anointed (messiah). So we ask, was King Cyrus a “righteous gentile? Did King Cyrus receive the blessing from the G-d of Israel to prepare the pathway for the emancipation of the Jews from the powerful grip of the Babylonians? Was his role in life to open the gates for the messianic return of the Jews from captivity in Babylon; the archetypical 70 Nations of the world residing outside the Land of Israel?

King Cyrus the Great, the Persian Shah and his Jewess wife, Queen Esther

The G-d of Israel truly was preparing for a massive pathway of redemption for the Jews who were still in the seventy years of exile in Babylon according to the Prophet Jeremiah. Suddenly, upon the horizon from the east there came the armies of the Medes and the Persians. In a stroke of military adeptness, they diverted the waters of the Euphrates Rivers and with military sappers, infiltrated under the gates into the city and toppled the most impregnable city of the then known world.

The Babylonian King Belshazzar and the Hand-Writing on the Wall of his Banquet Hall

At that same hour, Belshazzar, the King of Babylon was hosting a banquet to the elite of the Babylonian Empire. Their sacrilege was that they were using the golden goblets from Solomon’s Temple to celebrate the 70 years of Jewish captivity and how the G-d of the Jews was not capable to redeem or free His own chosen people.

Sometime during the early Babylonian era, the Prophet Ezekiel was met by an angelic representative of the G-d of Israel by the River Chebar descending in a divine vehicle. It was surrounded with stormy winds as the brilliance of the fearsome, Chayos each with four heads and four wings that swept along with the appearance of fiery torches of coal swept across in front of him.

The Vision of the Prophet Ezekiel along River Chebar with G-d’s Merkabah

Each of the Chayos took with them an Ofanim, who carried the burning chariot, that had the appearance of a wheel within a wheel. Ezekiel wrote what the angel said to him:

Ezekiel 2:8, 3:4-7 – “Son of Man, heed that which I speak to you: Be not rebellious like the rebellious house…He said to me, “Son of Man go and approach the House of Israel and speak to them with My words. For not to a people of incoherent language and difficult speech are you being sent, but to the House of Israel…But the House of Israel will not wish to heed you for they do not wish heed Me, for the entire House of Israel is hard-browed and brazen-hearted.”

Would you believe that King Cyrus along with his entire armies have now been identified as the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel? As we consider these following facts of history, what we are seeing is that the armies of the Medes and the Persians were literally the “brazen faced Lost Tribes of the House of Israel”?

King Cyrus the Great was a Ruler of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel

King Cyrus the Great of the Pasargadae Israelite Tribe of Gad

King Cyrus was a descendant of the Tribe of Gad of the House of Israel. He was a ruling descendant of the Pasargadae tribe and his brilliant military commander, Gobryas, was his uncle, one of the ruling “kings” of the Tribe of Gad. During the years of the United Kingdom of Kings David and Solomon, the Tribe of Gad lived alongside the Tribes of Manasseh and Reuben with their immense flock of cattle and sheep on the eastern or “other-side of the Jordan River”.

It was also they who rejected the Royal House of Kings David and Solomon, refused to worship in the famous golden Temple of Solomon, while rejecting the lineage of high priests of the House of Zadok, and rejecting the ruling Jewish rabbinic judiciary of Torah Law called the Mechoquek.

Today we have the capacity to explore now the profound differences and discrepancies between the classical Persian calendar rewritten by the Roman Catholic monks, who were also of Lost Tribes descent.

The Jewish Rabbinic Calendar and the Roman Catholic Christian Church Conventional Calendar

It was in the 2^nd century during the famous Tanna of the fourth generation, Rabbi Jose ben Halafta (alt. Halpetha) was recognized as one of the great students of Rabbi Akiva. This rabbi was so well known and recognized as one the foremost scholars of halakha and the aggadah of his day.

He was a teacher and mentor to of the famed Judah ha-Nasi. As such, he was even so today well known that it was documented in the Mishnah as being the fifth most frequently mentioned sage in the Mishnah. He was a teacher and mentor to many of the post-destruction of King Herod’s Temple era of which included the well-known student and notable sage, Judah ha-Nasi that Rabbi Jose ben Halafta even today is simply known as Rabbi Jose.

It was Rabbi Jose who wrote the Jewish Rabbinic Calendar, the history of the Jewish people as documented by the Jewish Rabbanim from the era of the Garden of Eden to the Roman era of that which was called the Seder Olam Rabbah or the “Great Order of the World.”

There has been a long discrepancy in the realms of “conventional chronology” of the Persian Imperial Era which the rabbinic Jews during the era of the Exilarchs in Iraq were now being challenged by a new history of the world written by a Lost Israelite, now a monk of the Roman Catholic Christian Church.

Dionysius Exiguus was a Roman Catholic Christian monk, Dionysius Exiguus, who was a 6^th century Scythian who lived near modern Dobruja, a region shared by Romania and Bulgaria. It was he who coined the term AD as a designation of ancient historical time. AD meant “Anno Domini” Nostri Jesu Christi or in the “Year of our Lord” Jesus Christ.

The term BC came later and it was designated in the English language as “Before Christ” but originally it was called “a.C.n.”, which was the abbreviation of “Ante Christum Natum” which in Latin meant “before the birth of Christ”.

How this Latin definition became converted to English is not well known, but what is known is that it was not universally accepted. In Europe alone; in the ancient French language it was known as “avant J.C.” (before Jesus Christ) and in German as “vor Christi Geburt” (before Christ’s birth).

As we can see, Dionysius Exiguus was a descendant of the Royal Scythians, the famed Lost Israelite “horsemen of the North” by birth, probably a descendant of the ancient Scythians. In the epic research of the books and studies of Brit Am we today can comprehend better that they were of the Royal Scythian of Israelite descent. They represented one to the leading sectors of the Ten Lost Tribes of the House of Israel.

These facts alone speak loudly about the major fragmentation and division in the ancient brotherhood between the Hebrews that included both the Jews and the Benjamites represented by the Southern Kingdom of Judah and the Ten Northern Tribes in the Northern Kingdom of Israel.

Daniel the Prophet, Magi and the Prime Minister of the Babylonian Chaldeans

While in Babylon, Daniel of royal blood through the house of King Hezekiah, Daniel was sent into exile early into the ranks of civil service in Nebuchadnezzar’s government very early after his exile to Babylon.

Within months, when it became noticed that Daniel had the ‘ear of the Lord of hosts’ and was able to master the mysteries of the universe, the king made him leader of the Magi or the Chaldeans. It was this auspicious group who ran the scientific institutions and were the court advisors to the king.

Daniel soon became the prime minister or ruler of the main province of Babylon, chief of the governors of the provinces (2:48). Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah were placed in strategic positions as Ministers of Governmental Affairs of the Imperial Government in Babylon. Within the top echelon of the Babylonian government, God had planted his trusted servants even within the highest ranking positions next to King Nebuchadnezzar, a type of the future Antichrist.

Rabbi Yose b. Halafta in his Jewish History, Seder Olam Rabbah (The Great Order of the World)

Here we can review this rich arena when Daniel and the three worthies were put in the fiery furnace for not bowing down to the statue of King Nebuchadnezzar. In the BibleSearchers Reflections article titled, “The Jewish Rabbinic Calendar and the History of the Exile of the Jews”, we can lift up the canopy that has hidden this enigmatic era of the Persian Empire when we ask, “Who was Cyrus the Great, Darius the Mede, Artaxerses and Ahasuerus, the Ahasuerus of Queen Esther’s fame as we reflect upon the following? As BibleSearchers Reflections wrote:

BibleSearchers Reflections - “According to the rabbinic chronology initially written by Rabbi Yose b. Halafta in his work, Seder Olam Rabbah (The Great Order of the World), we learn that Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the temple of Solomon in the year of 421 BCE according to the Rabbinic calendar year equivalent to the 586 BCE date as rewritten 900 years later called the Roman Catholic Christian Gregorian calendar known today as the “Conventional Calendar”.

King Cyrus the Great whose name in Hebrew is called “Koresh” conquered the invincible Babylon in 539 BCE, according to the conventional calendar, yet according to the “Seder Olam Rabbah”, Babylon was not conquered according to the Jewish Rabbinic calendar until the Jewish Year of 368 BCE.

Two years later, according to the rabbis, Xerses, whose name was also Ahashverosh (Ahasuerus) ruled over Persia between the years of 366 - 352 BCE. Then at the whim of the royal monarch, Ahasuerus decided to host a banquet for several weeks with his top military and government dignitaries.

It was during this time, when in a drunken state, Ahasuerus summoned his wife, Vashti, to parade herself in front of all his military dignitaries, which she refused and he dismissed her as his wife and queen. Later Ahasuerus married the Jewess Esther to rule with him as his queen. This era according to the conventional Gregorian chronology gives the reign of Xerses as 486-465 BCE.

According to Vendyl Jones, the legendary explorer for the “Golden Ark of the Wilderness Tabernacle” whose life and mission is reputed to be the foundation of the popular movie series, “Indiana Jones” to whom credit must be given, later revealed in the famous Hebrew documents called the Emeq HaMelekh “The Valley of the Kings” to the public. This epic document then revealed that King Cyrus (Koresh), Darius (Daryavesh) the Mede and Xerses (Ahashverosh /Biblical Ahasuerus) are all the same ruler.

As such, according to Rabbi Yose b. Halafta in his work, Seder Olam Rabbah, there was one Cyrus, one Xerses and one Darius until Alexander the Great swept aside the Persian Empire after he crossed the Cilician Gates and defeated the Persian Shah Darius II Nothus in the Battle of Issus in the conventional calendar year of 333 BCE.

The Oriental Empire of Babylon had 53 years of rule and the Persian Empire had 51 years of rule until the Occidental Empire of Greece toppled the Oriental potentates, a total of 104 years.

To the Jewish understanding in history, Cyrus the Great was the same ruler as Xerses and Darius the Mede, for the name Darius actually meant ‘Lord’ and Xerses meant ‘monarch’.

The Multitude of Names for King Cyrus the Great and the Chronology of the Persian Imperial Rule

As we now know the name “Cyrus” comes from “Kyros” meaning “far sighted” or “young” and it can also mean “Kyrios” which means “lord”. Later we learn that King Cyrus at the Persian banquet within the first two years of his rule in Babylon was called Ahasuerus (“Khshayârshâ”) which meant “prince, head, or chief”). King Cyrus was also known as Artaxerses, which meant “righteous ruler” who in the biblical text of Esther was called Ahasuerus (aka King Cyrus, “Lord” Darius I).

Compare this with the Roman Catholic Christian Church fabricated “conventional chronology” called the Gregorian Calendar. The Babylonian Empire ruled for 48 years and then under one Cyrus, one Xerses, two Darius and two Artaxerses plus several intermittent upstarts and rivals, the Persians ruled for 207 years, a difference of 156 years between the rabbinic and the Christian Catholic conventional Gregorian calendar.

Here is a brief summary:

Rabbinic Chronology - Event - Conventional Chronology

421 BCE Nebuchadnezzar destroys Solomon’s 586 BCE

Temple.

368 BC Cyrus (Darius I) begins the Persian rule 539 BCE

366-352 BCE Reign of Xerses – Ahasuerus 486-465 BCE

and Queen Esther

351 BCE Temple rebuilding, second year of 520 BCE

Darius II (Artaxerses) or Darius II Nothus

317 BCE End of Darius Nothus II’s reign 332 BCE

Beginning of Greek rule under Alexander the Great

68 CE Second Temple destroyed 70 CE

Another way of comparing the Rabbinic and the conventional chronologies, was to align the date when the rebuilding of the Second Temple called Zerubbabel’s Temple in the year of 351 BCE (rabbinic calendar) and lasted as King Herod’s Temple to 70 CE (conventional calendar) when the temple was destroyed by the Romans. This was a time span of a total of 422 years.

As such, the seventy (70) weeks ‘to be determined among thy people’(Jews) prophecy to Daniel, known as the 490-year prophecy would have put the time from the destruction of the first temple in 421 BCE to the destruction of Herod’s temple in Jerusalem at 68 CE, a date favored by many rabbis.

If we use the 68 CE date for the destruction of Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem, then in the conventional chronology the time period from the destruction of Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem in 586 BCE to the destruction of King Herod’s Temple in 68 CE would be 654 years.

King Darius I the Mede called Xerses in the conventional chronology has now been accepted to be the Biblical Ahasuerus and the king who married Queen Esther. As such, the successor of King Darius I the Mede was Darius II who was the son of King Cyrus who was half Mede and Persian of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel and half Jewish by his mother, the Jewess Queen Esther.

Considering this, the second and third return of the Jewish people with Ezra and Nehemiah would have occurred during the reign of a ruler of Persia that was of Jewish descent, because King Darius II’s mother was a Jew. The decree to rebuild the temple of Zerubbabel in 351 BCE (rabbinic calendar) would have been exactly seventy years after its destruction in 421 BCE.”

The United States and the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel

So fact upon fact, most of you who read the blogs of Destination Yisrael are descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel. This fact as now we shall learn includes the President elect of the United States; Donald Trump.

Yet we still persist in our quest to find the link between Donald Trump, destined to be the new President of the United States of America. Are we clueless and yet refuse to see the links that our forefathers are the descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel?

George Washington and the Making of the Constitution

According to American history and the Jewish archives we know that the “13 Original Colonies of America” first settled long the Atlantic Seaboard were of the House of Manasseh, the eldest son of the Viser of Egypt in the era of the “Great Exodus”, Joseph the son of Jacob. It was the Lost Tribers of the House of Israel that were the founding forefathers of the American Revolution of which George Washington, like Donald Trump was a Scottish Free Mason.

Many Americans today associate George Washington as the general who led the fledgling American troops to a victorious climax during the American Revolutionary War. Few will remember that Washington was a firm advocate for the establishment of a strong national government, even before the Revolution was over, and the president of the Constitutional Convention in 1787. As such, he was also the first president of the United States, yet most American fail to connect Washington’s role with the American Constitution.

The mural featured above was painted by Allyn Cox. It portrays U.S. President George Washington with his Masonic laying the cornerstone of the national capitol in a Masonic ceremony under the auspices of the Grand Lodge of Maryland, September 18, 1793.

So today, a new presidential candidate has swept the American elections with the electoral vote even as he failed by a small margin to get the popular vote. Trump was under the assault by most of the national news media who spent thousands of hours criticizing, demeaning, demoralizing one of America’s prime corporate builders for expressing the hearts of souls of over 50% of the American population who believed that the corruption and Roman decadence that destroyed the ancient Roman Empire now was about to destroy the “American Dream”.

In the following Destination Yisrael’s article titled, “The Jewish Torah Roots of the American Constitution, we read the words of Prof. Paul Eidelberg”.

Professor Paul Eidelberg – “No nation has been more profoundly influenced by the "Old Testament" than America. Many of America's early statesmen and educators were schooled in Hebraic civilization. The second president of the United States, John Adams, a Harvard graduate, had this to say of the Jewish people:

John Adams – “The Jews have done more to civilize men than any other nation.... They are the most glorious Nation that ever inhabited the earth. The Romans and their Empire were but a bauble in comparison to the Jews. They have given religion to three-quarters of the Globe and have influenced the affairs of Mankind more, and more happily than any other Nation, ancient or modern…..continue

While we take a breath at what we have learned so far, we can begin to look at the role of the Creator G-d of the Universes as He guides and directs the affairs of the nations of the world.

The Puzzle of King Cyrus and Queen Vashti

According to the Jewish Midrash, as we have seen, the Biblical King Cyrus the Great was called Xerses which Herodotus claimed meant “warrior” but whose meaning may be closer to “hero among rulers” or “ruler over heroes”.

The new wife of King Cyrus the Great, Vashti, after the invasion of the capital of Babylon now became the resident of King Nebuchadnezzar’s former palace. The Prophet Daniel was still around and his fame and loyalty to the King Nebuchadnezzar was legendary as the pre-imminent prime minister of Babylon, King Cyrus effectively transferred Daniel to become his new Persian prime minister now under the rule of King Cyrus the Great.

It was during Vashti's father, Belshazzar's rule that the mobs of Medes and Persians attacked and overcame the Great City of Babylon. They murdered Belshazzar that night. Vashti, unknowing of her father's death, ran to her father's quarters. There she was kidnapped by King Darius I of Persia who was also known as Xerses (“The Monarch”), and became King Cyrus’ wife; which we doubt was by mutual consent.

While we take a breath at what we have learned so far, we can begin to look at the role of the Creator G-d of the Universes. He guides and directs the affairs of the nations of the world, most of the time not using righteous people, but those that HaShem (“The Name”) knew would fulfill the destiny He was choosing for His chosen people and would carry the mantle that the Almighty One of Israel would place upon his shoulders.

The question we begin to ponder again: was King Cyrus the Great the archetype of the future Donald Trump, soon to be inaugurated as the 45^th president of the United States in in January 20, 2017 in the Jubilee Year of 5777. Before we answer this question, we must also recognize that the Jewish year of 5000 is the number of man and the number 777 is the number of the G-d of Israel. Here was the famous internationalist Lost Israelite ruler who married the hidden Jewess called Esther, who became the Biblical Queen Esther.

According to the rabbinic tradition, the only peoples on Planet Earth who lived through this era were the Jewish peoples. It was a large colony of the Jewish people who stayed in their “exile” during the Babylonian and after the Persian Imperial Eras. They were ruled by their Jewish Exilarchs as royal pontiffs over the Jewish peoples throughout the era of the Sassanid Empire, and later in the Islamic era of Muhammed the Prophet and the Islamic Caliphates that followed even to our modern age with the rise of the Nation of Israel. All the identities of the other peoples in Babylon and the satraps of Persia have disappeared. Even the Persian peoples are an amalgamation of many nations.

There were three migrations back to the devastated city of Jerusalem, one by Zerubbabel the Davidian Exilarch, one by Ezra the Scribe and one by Nehemiah also a Davidian Exilarch who was sent by King Darius II, the son of King Cyrus (Darius I the Mede) and Queen Esther, to fortify Jerusalem and complete the Second Temple (Zerubbabel’s Temple).

The Prophet Daniel’s legendary era as the prime minister of Babylon continued to follow him to the southern palace at Shushan where he was the personal confidant as the prime minister of King Cyrus the Great (aka King Darius I the Mede).

During this “end of the era of Babylon” the great-granddaughter of King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon, Vashti, the granddaughter of King Amel-Marduk who was a close friend with the Jewish Exilarch Zerubbabel and was the daughter of King Belshazzar was now to become the wife of King Cyrus the Great or Darius I the Mede who was called “Lord”.

The Great Feast of King Ahasuerus

It was in the first two years of King Cyrus rule’, that he held a huge feast at his palace complex for all the rulers of the satraps of Persia. According to the Midrashic account, Vashti was a savvy politician, and the ladies' banquet that she held in parallel to Ahasuerus' banquet represented an astute political maneuver. Since the noble women of the kingdom would be present at her banquet, she would have control of a valuable group of hostages in case a coup occurred during the king's feast.

While one midrash depicts Vashti as wicked, another sees her as noble, honorable and possessing wisdom. The opinion of Rabbis of Eretz Israel is positive. She is depicted as giving her husband advice, sending him three messages and pointing out how his demand was both immoral and a political mistake.

According to “The Zionist Dream Revisited: from Herzl to Gush Emunim and Back” written by Amnon Rubinstein, we read:

Amnon Rubinstein – “Queen Vashti, wife of King Ahasueros, refuses to obey her husband’s order to present herself at an all-male party he is hosting, at which a profusion of alcohol was being served, in order to show off her beauty.

The king’s advisors convince him that the queen’s disobedience will set a bad example for the women of the empire, and that he must therefore get rid of her. Ahasueros reluctantly agrees, but he soon regrets his decision.

To console him, his chief courtiers persuade him to gather together the most attractive maidens of his empire and to choose Vashti’s replacement from among them. In popular renditions of the story of Esther, the process is almost invariably depicted as a beauty pageant in which attractive women competed to become part of the king’s harem, although the text of the novella is ambiguous about the process by which the massive roundup of thousands of beautiful women from the vast borders of the Persian empire took place. Among them is Esther, a young woman whose deceased parents were descended from Judean exiles.”

Once again the parallels of Donald Trump and King Cyrus the Great and their attitude concerning women can be compared in a more refined identity.

Age and the Imperial Rules of Cyrus and Trump

Donald Trump was 70 years old when he won the electoral college vote that will give him access to the “keys to the kingdom” of the United States of America upon his inauguration on January 20, 2016. He will be the oldest president to have this distinction.

King Darius I the Mede was 62 years old when he toppled the mighty city of Babylon and received the kingship over the regions of Babylon and Persia. Donald Trump like King Cyrus the Great (Darius I the Mede) quickly within just days after winning the electoral college vote began the formation of his governmental advisors to assist him in the formation of his cabinet to advise him on his rule over the vast continent of North America called the United States of America.

And so it “pleased Donald Trump” when his political campaigning was now over so he could begin the appointments of his inner circle of advisors and make preparation to redefine the destiny of America with the slogan, “America will be Great again!” and “America will be Free again!”:

Daniel 6:1 – “So it pleased Darius to appoint over the kingdom one hundred and twenty satraps to be throughout the kingdom, and over them three viziers, of whom Daniel was one – to whom these satraps would give advice, so that the king would suffer no harm. Then this Daniel oversaw the viziers and satraps, because of the extraordinary spirt in him; and the king thought to appoint him over the kingdom.

The Comparison of the Tests of Governance of Cyrus and Donald

Yet immediately after the kingdom was set up, certain of the viziers and satraps “sought to find libel” against Daniel but “they could find neither fault nor corruption, because he was faithful and nor could error or corruption be found in him.

Daniel in the Lion’s Den

So Darius I and Donald can now be compared as rulers over vast imperial realms. Will we find that it will be Donald Trump who will have to prove to the G-d of Israel that even with his “extraordinary spirit within him” he too will be tested for his faithfulness to the One G-d of Israel?

For almost a year in campaigning and in national debates, the vigorous speeches and debates between the candidates quickly thrust this politically inexperienced building mogul into the “lion’s den experience” of American politics.

Understand, Donald Trump is not Daniel, but the endemic and fury of the political advisors he surrounds himself may force him to make political and also sacred cognitive decisions which he will in turn soon regret.

So like King Darius I, it was the satraps of Persia who sought to eliminate the coveted position to always have the ear of the Persian monarch, when they turned against Daniel the Prime Minister who would daily turn his face to Jerusalem and pray to the G-d of Israel in supplication to the “Almighty One of Israel” instead of King Cyrus when Persian satraps stated to King Cyrus:

Daniel 6:13-14 – “Did you not inscribe, a prohibition that any person who would make a request of any god or person for thirty days, other than you, O king, would be thrown into the lion’s pit? The king replied and said, “The matter is true, according to the law of Media and Persia, which shall never lapse.”

Then they exclaimed and said before the king, That Daniel, who is one of the people of the exile of Judah, has not paid any attention to you, O king, and to the prohibition that you have inscribed. Three times a day he prays his prayer!

For the rest of the day, King Darius I was in anguish and torment. He tried every avenue to save the life of his honored prime minister, but by evening, he relented to the irrevocable law of the Medes and the Persians and Daniel was cast into the lion’s den. Yet before that fateful moment, King Cyrus (aka Darius I the Mede) began his first mental ascension of spiritual consciousness to the Absolute Ruler of the Universe when he stated to Daniel:

Daniel 6:17 – “May your G-d, Whom you serve continually, save you!” A stone was brought and was placed over the opening to the pit, and the king sealed it with his signet ring and with the signet rings of his nobles, who that his will regarding Daniel could not be changed.”

The king’s mind was in turmoil and in distress. He could not sleep, no table for food was brought to him, and “his sleep wandered from him.” Before the break of dawn, the king rushed to the lion’s pit, and when near he cried out in sadness and grief to Daniel:

Daniel 6:21 – “Daniel, servant of the living G-d! Was your G-d, Whom you serve continually, able to save you from the lions?…Then Daniel stated, may the king live forever! My G-d sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, and they did not wound me, because merit was found for me before Him. Also before you, O king, I have done no harm.”

Daniel was raised out of the lion’s den and quickly inspected for no wound was found. In turn, the satraps who had slandered the name and reputation of Daniel in “Lashan “HaRah or “Evil Tongue”, were thrown into the pit of lions and as the sacred text concludes:

Daniel 6:25 – “The king gave the command and they brought those men who had slandered Daniel, and they threw them into the lion’s pit, them, their children, and their wives. They had not reached the floor of the pit when the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones.”

So now, with the acceptance of winning the nomination as the 45^th president of the United States, the only nation that claims, “In G-d we Trust”, the new President Donald Trump has now set the standards of honesty, integrity and righteousness as he did during his campaign when railed against those rulers in America who oppressed and abused the masses of the people endemic in the corruption of Washington D.C Inc. and the monetary Rothschild oppressors of the Federal Reserve.

Yes, Donald Trump has the potential of making suits and political chaos against those who fought against him or because of his own hubris of his role as always being the one in charge, that he could make decisions that will harm those that are close to him like King Darius I the Mede (aka King Cyrus the Great) did early in his Persian kingship to the Prime Minister, the Prophet Daniel. When the G-d of Israel forced King Cyrus to stand and be counted, Donald may like King Cyrus will have the opportunity to rise to the challenge as an advocate of the righteousness of G-d’s divine purpose.

Isaiah 55:4 – “Behold, I have given him (Cyrus and Donald) for a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.”

The Political Future of President Donald Trump

The rabbis in Israel have weighed in on the personal and political future of President-elect Donald Trump as written in the Breaking Israel News on November9, 2016, the day after the presidential election.

The Gematria of Donald Trump’s Name

Breaking Israel News – “Donald Trump’s upset victory in the presidential race over Hillary Clinton, who was heavily favored in virtually all the pre-election polls, seemed to defy the laws of nature, reason and sense. Several rabbis have an explanation, however: it was, quite simply, the will of God.

Rabbi Yosef Berger. (Courtesy David’s Tomb)

“As the rabbi who oversees the final resting place of King David on Mount Zion, Rabbi Yosef Berger is intimately connected to the spirituality of kingship. For him it was clear what tipped the scales in favor of the Republican underdog.

“I have known for months that Donald Trump would win the elections…The gematria (numerology) of his name is Moshiach (Messiah). He is connected to the Messianic process which is happening right now.

When he promised to move the American Embassy to Jerusalem, he attached himself to the power of Moshiach, which gave him the boost he needed. If you separate from Jerusalem, disaster will follow.

“When taking the gematria into account, it was clear that Trump had a spiritual edge. As Rabbi Berger pointed out, the Hebrew gematria for Donald Trump in Hebrew (דונלד טראמפ) is 424, which is equal to the gematria of “Messiah for the House of David” (משיח בן דוד).

The Ben Ish Chai, an authority on Jewish law and master kabbalist who lived in Baghdad 150 years ago, interpreted the number 212 as a difficult time for Israel before the Final Redemption. Trump’s gematria is twice that, signifying an ongoing Messiah process.

Rabbi Berger was clear on how this election fit into the process of Messiah. “As the spiritual descendant of the Biblical nation of Edom, America has a very important role to play in the Messiah. But in order to be suited for that role, America had to be humbled,” Rabbi Berger stated.

Rabbi Berger - “In order to establish his kingdom, God had to create confusion, a situation in which the best plans laid by the most powerful people, comes to nothing.”

The rabbi quoted the well-known proverb:

Proverb’s 16:9 – “A man’s heart deviseth his way; but Hashem directeth his steps.

Rabbi Berger, rabbi of the Tomb of King David stated the following,

Rabbi Berger - “This outsider, whose own party rejected him, despised by the media, won despite what the experts predicted.”

Rabbi Hillel Weiss, spokesman for the nascent Sanhedrin

“As spokesman for the nascent Sanhedrin, Rabbi Hillel Weiss, also saw God’s interest in Israel as part of the election. He said that Trump’s victory was, in part, a reaction to President Barack Obama’s Israel policies.

“Obama made himself a very visible part of the campaign. It is clear that Hashem (God) was part of the political process, using it to punish President Obama and those who were working to harm Israel;” Rabbi Weiss told Breaking Israel News.

“By allowing Iran to establish a nuclear program which is clearly not for peaceful purposes, by standing aside and allowing the UN to make resolutions to harm Israel, Obama established himself as an enemy of Israel.

“All of the academics and the media, who create their own world with evil words, they worked against Trump,” continued Rabbi Weiss. “They tried to create a man-made reality in which Trump could not win. In the end, it did not work. Hashem is moving us towards a greater Jerusalem, and anyone who goes against that, is destined to fail.

“Trump’s slim margin of triumph and the fact that throughout the hotly contested campaign, Clinton consistently led in most pre-election polls made his victory even more stunning.

“At one point, Clinton led with a double digit advantage of up to 17 points. A CNN poll in June predicted a Clinton landslide victory by 24 percent. Indeed, up until the day before the elections, major polls were giving the Democratic candidate a five percent edge. Though Trump won the electoral college by a wide margin (279 as compared to Clinton’s 218), the popular vote told a very different story, with Clinton actually winning by one percent.

“In an election of such import, the margin was tiny. With the future of a world superpower in the balance, it was clear that such an upset victory, flying in the face of conventional politics, media predictions, and the expectations of international leaders, not to mention many Americans, was entirely due to an outside influence.

“Here we have a New York billionaire who is portrayed as a ruthless mogul who has shaken the Republican and the Democratic parties to the core. He has over the years has surrounded his business corporate life with Jewish employees and now is preparing to topple the impregnable Washington D.C. corporate and political life.

The Potential Role of Donald Trump as the President of the United States in the Final Redemption and Restoration of the House of Israel and Judah

During the past centuries, each of these Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel have been introduced to the Jewish Prince of David, and messiah of his era, Yehoshua HaNotzri (Jesus the Nazarene). They were given first the pristine truths of rabbinic Judaism as interpreted by Hillel the Great.

This was then put into a divine mission with the sole purpose of finding and laying the pathway for the redemption of the Lost Tribes of Israel through the teachings of the Jewish Rabbi Yehoshua ben Yosef (Rabbi Jesus the son of Joseph). It was he, who was manifested as the divine emanation of HaShem’s messiah. It was he who would instill the pathway of Torah enlightenment for all generations.

The Lost Tribes were later introduced to the corrupted view of “The Jewish Nazarene” who was truly a Prince of David and also an Orthodox Jewish rabbi who lived his life above and beyond the letter of Torah Law. By the 4^th century CE, the teachings of this halakhic observing rabbi was amalgamated first by the Apostate Gnostic Roman Catholic Christian Church.

They became the participants of the great apostasy of the Christian faith as the Torah commands given to the Children of Israel on the mount called Sinai were stripped of their Hebrew philosophical roots and placed upon the Hellenistic Greco-Roman roots. It was they who would become one of the greatest adversaries of the Jewish people for the next two millenniums.

Finally, it was the Lost Tribes of Israel who were introduced to the 17^th century corruption of Jewish Messianism and Mysticism by the Kabbalist Rabbi, turned Anti-Torah Sabbatian, Shabbatai Tzevi. They later became the followers, as British and Scottish Freemasons of the century later coalition between Islamic Dolmeh Qabala trained Jewish Rabbi Jacob Frank, the Jewish Jesuit founder of the Bavarian Order of the Illuminati, Adam Weishaupt, and the Jewish founder of the European Banking Economic Order,
Mayer Amschel Rothschild.

The Ancestral Home of Tamar Tephi, the daughter of King Zedekiah and her husband the Scythian Judahite Heremon ben Milesius

In spite of the theological corruptions, the European based former Scythians, Cimmerian-Gauls, Anglo-Saxon Israelites with many other “hidden identities”, will someday reemerge with their new identity as the prophetic House of Ephraim or more specifically, the House of Joseph. They will be prophetically drawn back into imperial Messianic One World Order with their tribal cousins, the Jewish people, under the rule of the future King Messiah of the House of King David ruling as the Commonwealth of Israel.

It has been a long journey for the Lost Tribes of the House of Israel and that journey is about over. In arrogance Israel apostatized against the G-d of Israel and wanted to be self-fulfilled and independent. In spite of tribal rivalries and jealousies, they rejected the literal word of the Almighty One of Israel that their covenant was to keep all the commands of the Torah, and worship together with their entire family of Israel at the temple in Jerusalem.

They, the Lost Ten Tribes turned their backs against Judah because of the oppression of the last days of Solomon and the oppressive arrogance his son, King Rehoboam. They rejected the divine “word of the L-rd” and refused to worship in the Holy Temple and ally themselves with Judah as the Mechoqeck, the Lawgiver of the Almighty One on this planet earth. The unity of Israel was fragmented and soon both houses of Israel were in exile.

When Donald Trump steps forward in January 20, 2017, at his inauguration as the President of the United States, here are some foundational facts that his life may in the future change the matrix of the “era of the messiah” as he chooses to accept the mandate of the heavenly court of HaShem to be a participant of the messianic process of King Messiah:

President elect Donald Trump ancestors are blood-lined Irish and as such were part of Tribes of Simeon, Dan and Levi. He is, like the Lost Ten Tribes of the House will be what the G-d of Israel stated about His “chosen” Northern Kingdom of Israel, “You are My Battle Axe.”

In their apostasy, these Irish leaders became the Gnostic Illuminati.

Like America’ s founding forefathers, Donald Trump has a higher state of spiritual consciousness and may be the international political leader to be the prime mover for the future messianic consciousness and spiritual enlightenment. He has the capacity to learn from the Divine and learn “greatly”.

Donald Trump has the capacity, like King Cyrus the Great to listen and believe wrongly the testimony of his advisors and then ruthlessly in the pathway of his convictions, like Cyrus did of old throw the Prime Minister and the Prophet Daniel into the lion’s den.

President Donald Trump may have to rectify the edict that was used to potentially destroy the revered Daniel the Prophet, the revered prime minister of both Babylon and Persia and now with an elevated state of consciousness, accept that he is part of G-d final vortex of redeeming power.

President Donald Trump like King Cyrus will be known to be compassionate with allowing the Jewish people to return to the land of their forefathers in aliyah. It was the Jewish people who failed in part for loving the land of Persia where they could share in the wealth of the ancient Persian Empire.

The Jews in the American Diaspora of Reform and Conservative Judaism persuasion may be the representative of the Jews and the Exilarchs in Baghdad who refused to return to Jerusalem and the future Judea to rebuild the Temple of Zerubbabel.

The fate of the Jewish people in the Diaspora will be rectified before the Divine Court by the Defense Attorney of the heavenly court; “Metatron, the Angel of the Divine Presence who will soon be Melekh HaMaschiach (King Messiah)”.

Donald Trump could be the human ruler who will be called upon by the Creator of the Universe to emancipate the rest of the Jews living all over Planet Earth of which over 10 million are in the United States alone.

The Jews in the Diaspora may eventually be compelled, during adverse political deterioration in America to return to the land of their forefathers or in adverse global catastrophic adverse conditions such as a near fly-by of Nibiru, the nemesis and the twin dark binary star that may bring great destruction upon Planet Earth.

Donald Trump like King Cyrus has the capacity to be compassionate and like HaShem, the one G-d of Israel will give mercy to those that need it.

It may be President Donald Trump’s mandate to provide the political and geo-political landscape to “Emancipate the Jews” from their American Diaspora so they can return in mass to the Land of Israel, their ancestral homeland in the former Kingdom of Judah.

Donald Trump has allied his fate with the Modern State of Israel with the acceptance that Jerusalem is the Eternal capital of the Nation of Israel inaugurated at the mount called Sinai.

Donald Trump has an affinity for the “Jewish brainpower” and his corporate world is strongly imbedded with Jewish people running his corporate business life.

President Donald Trump appears to be preparing for the planetary redemption of both the “return of the Jews” to the future “Greater Israel” but also upwards to 2-3 billion of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel. These also are destined to be “taken from the lands of their dwelling” and returned to the “land of their forefathers” and there as Klal Yisrael (“All 12-Tribed Israel”) will be G-d’s people and HaShem will be their G-d.

We are standing in the historical Messianic Era today which we may soon literally be transported to a higher 4^th dimensional consciousness, as we await to become part of the ingathering of the exiles.

The Final Redemption and Restoration of the House of Israel and Judah

Is it not fascinating that some Lost Tribers in certain Protestant Churches call themselves “Spiritual Israelites” which in fact they are not. They are still spiritually babes in not realizing that as Spiritual Israelites, they are seeking to replace the covenanted Jews of the House of Judah.

Instead they are actually “Literal Israelites” whose forefathers rejected the covenanted life as given on the Mount called Sinai, refused to worship in the House of G-d called Solomon’s Temple, refused to accept the priests designated as their spiritual advisors in Jerusalem, and the Mechoqeck, the Jewish rabbanim or the Pharisees of Beit Hillel to be their Torah guided judiciary and rebelled in defiance to the G-d of Israel.

These Lost Israelites were exiled, and lost their spiritually elevated lifestyle. Over the centuries they wandered back to Rome (Edom), and there wallowed in paganism and idolatry as Roman Christians for almost two thousand years.”

So history does attest that the Northern Ten Tribes that included the Royal Scythians did choose to separate themselves from their Jewish brothers from the Southern Kingdom of Judah. They went the way of apostasy into Baal worship.

So today, most of the influence and the adherences of Roman and Protestant Christianity are located in the regions where the Lost Ten Tribes and their world colonization were located 2,300 years ago. This includes the Americas and the regions of Northern Europe, Southern Russia and the Balkans plus the countries around the world in which the Lost Ten Tribes have colonized around the globe.

Jewish Sanhedrin nominates new High Priest of Israel heralding the Arrival of Rabbi Judah ben Samuel’s “Messianic end Times” Prophecy

The Restored Jewish Temple and the return of the Melekh HaMaschiach

It was in the year of 1217 CE that one of Judah’s most legendary and prolific German Hassidic rabbis made an astounding prediction about the future of Jerusalem and the coming of the Messiah. Known as Judah ben Samuel (Judah He-Hasid or Judah the Pious, he lived in the 12^th and 13^th century in Regensburg, Germany. As documented in the BibleSearchers Reflection article titled, “Rabbi Judah ben Samuel’s Jubilee Prophecy gives the Year of the Messiah” we read:

Rabbi Judah ben Samuel’s Prophecy of Ten Jubilees

BibleSearchers Reflections – “Born in Speyer in 1140, Rabbi ben Samuel died in February 22, 1217 in Regensbug. He was one of the fathers of Chassidei (Hassidic Judaism), a movement of Jewish mysticism in Germany different than Rabbi Lurias Kabbalistic mysticism, where the Chassids emphasized strong moral ethics and prayer.

When Rabbi Judah HeHasid settled in Regensburg at the age of 55, it was here that he wrote his seminal books; the Sefer Hasidim (Book of the Pious), Sefer Gematriyot (a book on astrology) and Sefer Hakavod (Book of Glory). The latter book is now lost and few quotations have remained by subsequent authors.

These years were the time of the Roman Christian crusades into the Holy Land between the years of 1096-1270. During that time also a flourishing of correspondence that was carried back and forth from Jerusalem and the Holy Land and Europe rabbis in Worms and Regensburg in Germany. It was in these letters that they knew about Saladin the Great and Saladin’s Sunni Ayyubid Dynasty in Egypt.

It was in this same year, a Year of Jubilee that Rabbi Judah ben Samuel began publishing his biblical calculations called the Gematria, plus his astronomical observations gave us this summary which we can read today.

Rabbi Judah ben Samuel - “When the Ottomans (Turks) – who were already a power to be reckoned with on the Bosporus in the time of Judah ben Samuel conquer Jerusalem, they will rule over Jerusalem for eight jubilees (1517-1917).

Afterwards Jerusalem will become no-man’s land for one jubilee (1917- 1967), and then in the ninth Jubilee (1967) it will once again come back into the possession of the Jewish nation (1967-2017) – which would signify the beginning of the “Messianic end time.”

So today, as we stand upon the teetering shores of the Olam Ha’zeh (our Earthly World), and preparing to make that existential jump into higher dimensional world of the Olam Ha-ba (the future World Beyond), we then realize that this has been a prophetic journey for each of us awaiting the “Secret Things of G-d” that He is preparing to be revealed to us.

Is it not a coincidence with the prophetic expectations that Rabbi Judah ben Samuel’s 800-year prophecy that started in the Jubilee year of 1217 CE will end beginning with the Jewish High Holidays on October 3 – 25, 2016, (Jewish year of 5777)? At this time, it is expected that the “Messianic End Times” will begin. These facts hold special significance in the hearts of billions of Jews and “Lost Israelites”?

The Future Temple of the L-rd in Jerusalem

Let us look at some of these amazing coincidences and begin to understand the immense significance that these are having in each of our lives and the lives of every inhabitant on Planet Earth.

For decades, after the genetic code of the priestly DNA was broken and we now knew that certain unknown men were father to father descendants of the Cohen or the priestly lineage of the Jews who served in the 1^st century Temple of King Herod in Jerusalem, a new dimension came into understanding.

Since that day, Jewish Temple Mount leadership have been preparing for the return of King Messiah (Melekh HaMashiach) and the restoration of the temple sacrificial services as directed by HaShem, the G-d of Israel to Moshe Rabbeinu (Moses our Teacher) at the mount called Sinai.

Rabbi Baruch Kahane selected by Jewish Sanhedrin in Jerusalem as the next High Priest of Israel

They have zealously been preparing all the articles that would be part of the temple service including a New Golden Menorah, and yeshivas that young genetic haredi Jewish young men have given their lives to live in isolated purity preparing for this moment of time when all things will be restored. This will also include all the harbingers of the past prophetic eras that have been pointing and preparing each of us for this moment of time in history, when the up-swelling of Jews and Lost Israelites devotion will jettison the G-d of Israel to open the gates of heaven and begin with the final restoration of the Jewish House of Judah in Israel and the Diaspora and the reclamation, restoration, and redemption of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel.

Rabbi Baruch Kahane, one of the most prominent Jewish scholars who has studied for decades concerning the complicated temple services in the Temples of Solomon, Zerubbabel and King Herod, was nominated by the nascent Jewish Sanhedrin in Jerusalem in August 2016, just before the High Holidays of the Jewish people.

This was done in a precautionary purpose just in case the delicate political conditions on the Temple Mount were to change and allow the Jews to worship and offer sacrifices on the Temple Mount. As such, the High Priest could within a week begin the sacrificial services on a site near the ancient site of the Beit HaMikdash (the Holy House of HaShem).

Golden Menorah as modeled from the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem

Rabbi Baruch Kahane has been a prominent member of the Halacha Berurah Institute for decades; first instituted by Rabbi Avraham Isaac HaCohen Kook, the first Chief Rabbi of Israel.

Within the Berurah Institute, Kahane’s specialty in scholarship has been on the intricate Jewish laws on managing the temple services and helping the priests to perfect these rituals in preparation for the day in which the Jewish temple services can once again be served on the Temple Mount where the ancient temple once resided.

This has been especially true during the last several years during which the spring Korbin barley sacrifices have been reenacted during the Spring Pesach Harvest Festival.

Understandably there has been a vigorous uproar in the “lands of the dwelling” where the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel made their last homeland in Northern Gaul (Europe).

Today, in collusion with the UN, these Northern European nations, which were created between the 3^rd c BCE and 5^th c. CE, along with the United Nations today, have done every anti- Semitic thing they can conceive to deprive the Jewish Pioneers and Patriots living in Shomron (Samaria) and Judea (Roman Judea) today of living and dwelling in peace in the ancestral homelands of their Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

In spite of every attack, an elevated state of consciousness is daily increasing as the “arousal from below” with the guidance of the Maschiach ben Yosef (Messiah son of Joseph) is sweeping the Evangelical Christians in America plus large delegations of European Israelites including even sizable delegations are arriving from Africa; all of whom are flocking by the millions to Old City Jerusalem and the Kotel.

There they celebrate in one accord, with the Jewish people in Jerusalem during the Spring Harvest Festivals of Pesach (Passover) and Shavuot (Festival of Weeks called Pentecost) and the Fall Harvest Festivals of Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) and Succot (Festival of Dwellings).

As written about by the Rabbi Eliyahu Shlomo ben Zalman (Vilna Gaon called the “Gaon” (Genius) in one day, possibly this year, the G-d of Israel will “open the flood gates of heaven” when HaShem’s chosen Messiah will come down to dwell with his people; Klal Yisrael (All 12-Tribed Israel.)

The United Nation’s UNESCO seeks to grant total autonomy of the Temple Mount and Western Wall to the Islamic Wakf.

Over the last few months in 2016, there has been increasing harsh rhetoric concerning the United Nations granting total autonomy of the Temple Mount to the Islamic Wakf. The Director-General of UNESCO Irina Bokova has been adamant in her attempts to erase all attempts of the State of Israel to its holiest site; where Solomon and King Herod’s Temple once stood.

Unfortunately for her, the United Nation’s Director-General of UNESCO Irina Bokova does not have any power or authority in the courts of heaven before the Throne of G-d. She is impotent in her demands for they have no legal rendering in either the Written or the Oral Torah Law concerning ownership of the Temple Mount and for that matter the entire Land of Israel.

In the meantime, there is an up-swelling of support to follow the mandates of the G-d of Israel, not only with the Haredi, or Observant and Orthodox Jewish citizens for this “elevated state of spiritual awareness” is also beginning to ricochet not only within Israel but from all around the world.

Even Israeli Leftists centralized in Tel Aviv are beginning to reconsider their options starting with HaShem, the G-d of Israel; who gave them the Torah directive; “If you obey, you will live” and “If you refuse to obey, you will die” as they watch ISIS and Iran towards the East ponder their next global steps of demonic cruelty and injustice. The United Nation’s Director-General of UNESCO Irina Bokova seeks to ban all Jews and non-Muslims from visiting the Temple Mount in Jerusalem

The recent directive from the United Nation’s Director-General of UNESCO Irina Bokova was aimed to effectively ban Jews and other non-Muslims (Christians) from setting foot in the Temple Mount complex. The Anti-Semitic intent of Irina Bokova was explicitly clear in its blatant referral to the State of Israel as an “occupying power” in Shomron and Judah, the ancient homeland of the Jews in the Southern Kingdom of Judea, and the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel in the Northern Kingdom of Israel.

Second came the directive that all official documents of the UN must refer to the Temple Mount only as Al Aqsa, referring to the Islamic Mosque on the Temple Mount that is silver domed. Again was the attempt to forbid any reference to the Jewish Temple Mount as the site of King Solomon’s and King Herod’s Temples.

The Nascent Sanhedrin in Jerusalem vigorously counter-attacks the United Nation’s UNESCO’s in their attempt to erase all Jewish claims to Mount Moriah

The Sanhedrin sent a sharp response to UNESCO’s Irina Bokova in early July after UNESCO’s attempts to erase all Jewish claims to this holy site on Mount Moriah where Abraham offered his son up to the Creator G-d of Israel.

Yet it appeared that Divine intervention came to protect His people when UNESCO again began to attack the Jewish heritage rights to the land of Israel. UNESCO was planning to schedule a vote by the UNESCO’s World Heritage Committee in Istanbul in October, yet the finger of the Divine shut down the meeting due to the attempted coup in Turkey.

Due to the swift and strong international backlash by the State of Israel and the Sanhedrin against the resolution, Bokova began tread quickly backwards when she countered in a July statement, “To deny or conceal any of the Jewish, Christian or Muslim traditions undermines the integrity of the site.”

A more recent letter by the Sanhedrin to Bokova demanded that UNESCO “put an end to its efforts to establish Muslim exclusivity on the Temple Mount” when they wrote these words as stated in Breaking Israel News:

Breaking Israel News – “The Jewish people demands that UNESCO and the European Union stop dealing with this anti-Biblical manifesto… According to G-d’s command, the people of Israel conquered the territory of Judah and the Temple Mount from the Canaanites under the leadership of Joshua the son of Nun and later by King David. These areas were sanctified for the people of Israel and for the construction of the Temple as a place of prayer every man.”

The facts were soon to arrive to attest to the statements above when the Sanhedrin went on to cite the incontrovertible archaeological evidence of the Jewish claims to the Temple Mount and Israel, and point out the absolute lack of any such proof for Muslim claims to the site predating the Muslim conquest of Jerusalem in 636 CE.

The letter also called for a neutral international committee of scientists and archaeologists to establish the facts, and demanded that Jewish sovereignty be re-established on the Mount. The Jerusalem Sanhedrin continued to counter-attack the UNESCO’s resolutions:

Breaking Israel News – “This [Muslim] occupation ended with the establishment of the State of Israel…The followers of Islam must therefore immediately vacate the premises and return it to its rightful owner… The letter reiterated a claim the Sanhedrin has made in the past linking the rise in terror to UNESCO’s actions separating Jews from the Temple Mount…

The centrality of the Temple Mount in the life of the Jewish nation has a central role in preserving world peace…only by following the word of G-d and fulfilling His will as presented in the Book of Books will salvation come to all people and nations… Rejecting the heritage of the existence of the Holy Temple in its place directly supports terrorism, ISIS, and the dream of setting up a bloody Muslim caliphate.”

On August 24, 2016, Francesco Bandarin, the UNESCO Assistant Director-General for Culture, responded on behalf of Director-General of UNESCO Irena Bokova with a letter to the Sanhedrin. After noting that UNESCO member states, and not Bokova, take part in the votes, he quoted from her earlier July statement by insisting that “UNESCO is not denying Jewish, Christian or Muslim traditions at the Mount.”

As we approach the Year of the Jubilee and the anticipated anointment of King Messiah (Melekh Ha Maschiach), our eyes must stay open and awake to the potential divine manifestation as our lives will begin to accelerate towards our futuristic 4^th dimensional state of messianic consciousness.

It should awaken us to our divine appointment as the Temple Mount continues to become the most coveted place on Planet Earth. Soon, upwards to 2-3 billion of the descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel will be on a destined course of aliyah heading towards their final redemption back to the mountains of Israel in Shomron, Galilee, Lebanon, Syria, and Basham to the east of the Jordan River.

So what will happen in the coming Jewish holiday season? What is of most interest is the fact that with the merging of the Jewish Holiday Season of the Jewish Year of 5777, we

As the nations of the world are devolving into a world-wide economic collapse and terror is reigning supreme, El Shaddai, the “Almighty G-d of Israel” and the forces of Light under the guidance of Michael the Archangel are surrounding the Holy Land and the Holy City of Jerusalem.

Take a moment of time to meditate what is happening before our eyes. If you have “eyes that can see” today is the time to behold what the G-d of Israel is transforming in the world around us.

Model of the Elevated Platform for the Jewish Priests to Offer the Temple Sacrifice

It is not a coincidence that in the land of Israel, the Jewish people are rising to the forefront and saying; “The L-rd is our G-d, we will serve the L-rd.” At the same, the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel are beginning to understand that the “Lands of their dwelling”, are now becoming habitat of peoples who seek their destruction as forewarned in the 2004 Pentagon Report stating in part by Destination Yisrael article titled, “Nibiru, Nemesis, or Planet X returns to its Soon-to-Come Prophetic Apocalypse over Planet Earth”.

Future wars will be fought over the issue of survival rather than religion, ideology or national honour.
Between 2010 and 2020 Europe is hardest hit by climatic change with an average annual temperature drop of 6F. Climate in Britain becomes colder and drier as weather patterns begin to resemble Siberia.
Deaths from war and famine run into the millions until the planet's population is reduced by such an extent the Earth can cope.
Riots and internal conflict tear apart India, South Africa and Indonesia.
Access to water becomes a major battleground. The Nile, Danube and Amazon are all mentioned as being high risk.
A 'significant drop' in the planet's ability to sustain its present population will become apparent over the next 20 years.
Rich areas like the US and Europe would become 'virtual fortresses' to prevent millions of migrants from entering after being forced from land drowned by sea-level rise or no longer able to grow crops. Waves of boatpeople pose significant problems.

It is time to come to the understanding that the “days of our dwelling” for the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel located in Northern Europe and America along with the British colonies are about over. The global economic disorder is on the verge of collapse and soon the Maschiach ben David (Messiah son of David) will be arriving by the interdimensional forces of Light on a rescue mission for Planet Earth.

We must not be so arrogant to think that the Maschiach ben Dovid will come when we choose him to be. As so many will ask, if it is so important that a temple service be instituted before King Messiah (Melekh HaMaschiach) does come and reveal himself then why have the Jews not tried before this time to restart the temple sacrifice?

They have but the G-d of Israel through the legal medium of the Israeli Supreme Court in 2007 denied their request and we must accept that this was the will of HaShem, the G-d of Israel.

Yet, G-d gave His next response on the eve of Rosh Hashanah 2008 when the Congress of the United States refused to vote on the TARPA and immediately the New York Stock Exchange collapsed a total of 777.68 points (777 the number of the Divine plus 68, the Jewish year of 5768 (Year 2008).

Later a petition was submitted by Rabbi Adin Steinsalz, including numerous rabbis and Jewish organizations including the Temple Institute, seeking to perform the sacrificial offering on the Temple Mount.

The secular Israeli government in fear of an international upheaval by the inter-religious relations between America and Baghdad denied Rabbi Adin Steinsalz’s request, and the decision that was upheld by the Israeli Supreme Court. So, the Temple Institute has continued to this very Jubilee year filing every year petitions to the Jerusalem Temple police and the Israeli Supreme Court to conduct a Pesach (Passover) sacrifice on the Temple Mount.

According to Rabbi Chaim Richman, international director of the Temple Institute, the idea of the institution of the temple sacrifices in this day and age is rock solid established in Jewish Torah law as the Passover sacrifice is as important to Judaism as the sacred rite of circumcision. As he stated:

Rabbi Chaim Richman – Forbidding the sacrifice is “equal to saying you can’t circumcise your sons.” The Passover sacrifice is “like the national circumcision of the Jewish people.”

The legal foundation for Rabbi Richman’s opinion is based in part to Ezekiel 16.6 which speaks of “two bloods” and interpreted by later Sages of Judah as representing the “Blood of Circumcision” and the “Blood of the Passover Sacrifice” where the in the verse read during the Passover Haggadah is the same biblical passage as repeated by a Jewish congregation meeting during a circumcision ceremony emphasizing according to Rabbi Chaim Richman that “both are considered to be totally imperative for the spiritual stature of the Jewish people.”

The Fall High Holiday Season of Harvest of Judaism is at the doorway potentially ready to begin in early Fall Festival Season in October, 2016 (Jewish Year 5777). If any year in the last 2000 years is highly anticipated to be the opening to the final vortex for mankind to go through the gates into Gan Eden; this is the year!

Billions of people around the world will be watching and waiting to see what will happen. Will the Maschiach be revealed at this time? With there be a forecast of global catastrophes that will fall upon all the nations of the world? Anyone who is not watching today what is happening in the world is clueless!

In the days during the Temple services and festivals, one of the pivotal roles of the sacred Temple services was its inter-dimensional ability to protect the Land of Israel and to destroy the enemies of Israel with sources of unknown power flowing from an elevated Power emanating from a higher dimensional Gan Eden,

The Interdimensional Star-Gate into the World Beyond of Gan Eden

Isaiah 51:3 - “For Hashem hath comforted Tzion; He hath comforted all her waste places, and hath made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of Hashem; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.” (The Israel Bible™)

Over the millenniums there has been a misunderstanding that the only the High Priest of Israel could visualize the internal sanctuary called the Holy of Holiest where rested the sacred Ark of the Covenant covered by a “Mercy Seat” and two giant keruvim hovering over the place. Yet here is what was revealed in the Talmud Yoma 54a; as we read:

Talmud Yoma 54a – “When the children of Israel would ascend to the Temple on the festivals the Kohanim would roll up the curtain (partitioning off the Holy of Holies) for them and show them the keruvim which were clinging to one another in embrace and the Kohanim would tell them “Behold, your fondness before the Omnipresence (Makom) is like the fondness between a man and woman.”

So where was this place of such power and great sanctity? In the Midrash Tanchuma, Oedoshim, we read the answer:

The Even Shetiya (Foundation Stone) covered by the Dome of the Rock

As the Navel is set in the center of the Human Body, so the

Land of Israel the Navel of the World…

situated in the center of the World, and

Jerusalem in the center of the Land of Israel, and the

Sanctuary in the center of Jerusalem, and the

Holy Place in the center of the Sanctuary, and the

Ark in the center of the Holy Place, and the

Foundation Stone in the center of the Holy Place,

Because from it the World was founded.”

Walking into the Interdimensional Vortex into the Olam Habah (The World Beyond)

So consider today, that potentially the world as you know it to be may be on the teetering shores of the of the Olam HaZeh (our Present World) while Gan Eden is moving closer and closer to Planet Earth preparing to usher in a new era of higher dimensional Messianic Consciousness with the awakening or the revealing of Metatron, the Angel of the Divine Present who is soon to be Melekh HaMaschiach (King Messiah).
