END TIME: Jewish New Year, 5769, Geula, Feast of Trumpets, Rapture

Many of you, some readers and others not, have been searching this blog for information about the "special" year 5769, what makes it special, and does that have any cause for concern on your part.

First, according to the Jewish lunar calendar, their new year starts on the sunset of September 30 and continues through the sunset of October 1. The interesting fact, to them at least, is that that day is also the fourth day of the week on their calendar. The fourth day for those who know Genesis 1, is the day when the sun, moon, and stars were set for "signs and appointed times, and for days and for years,"

However, the fourth day of Genesis has been known forever as the time of the vernal or spring equinox, and not the autumnal or fall equinox. So the "fourth day of creation" in the fall on the lunar calendar is only a mathematical/astronomical event that happens periodically.

Yet this is a special time of prayer and spiritual closeness in the minds of those who follow the lunar calendar.

But …

when you compare this to Enoch’s calendar, revealed to him by the messenger Uriel from heaven, each quarter starts on the fourth day of the week and either on an equinox or a solstice. Therefore, each quarter is a special time of prayer and closeness to EL or ELAH and Yahua

The first day of the seventh month is also the Feast of Trumpets, according to the Torah.

The Feast of Trumpets is a time of prayer and trumpet shouts to draw close to Yahua for redemption (Geula). And any time we are not close in our relationship to "Yahua of Elohim" we are in exile (gola) and separated from our spiritual Family. It doesn’t matter if are in the Land of Israel or "among the gentiles" spiritual separation is gola, and what we really want is Geula, redemption and restoration of spiritual life.

The teachers of Judaism explain that the main difference between gola (exile) and Geula (redemption) is the letter Aleph, which has been pointed out in “KABBALAH: Part 4 - Hebrew Letters, Numbers, and Their Meaning” to be the letter of "God.". It is this special time, when their “Feast of Trumpets” falls on Tuesday/Wednesday that they believe a massive return of the exiled back to the land of Israel should happen.

So what is the meaning of the year 5769? This is one of those periodic years when the Jewish Feast of Trumpets happens to fall on the fourth day of week. There is no special significance to the number 5769 as it contains a problem similar to determining the significance of any year of the Gregorian calendar. In both cases mistakes were made in calculations. Those who tried to count the years from creation made at least two errors: One error for the Jewish calculation came during the count of the number of years the people of Israel were in bondage in Egypt, and another during the counting of the 70 years they were in bondage in Babylon. So instead of being 231 years from the year 6000, we may be closer to less than 12 years from 6000!

“This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year.” Exodus 12:2

Another serious mistake is saying that the year begins or is Rosh HaShana on the seventh month of the year. This is based on the tradition that the sun, moon, and stars were set on that time at the creation. But that is not true. Yahua made it plain to Moses and Aaron (Exodus 12:2) that the first of the months and the first month of the year was the month that started in the spring, and more precisely on the calendar revealed to Enoch. See also: “How the Exodus and the Resurrection Align with Enoch’s Calendar“

Now, if this day is so special to them on their lunar calendar, what prevents them from recognizing that this happens year after year on the Calendar revealed to Enoch? Not only does the year start in the spring on the equinox, but also it always starts on the fourth day of the week. And the true Feast of Trumpets always starts on the fall equinox and on the fourth day of the week.

But that is not always the fourth day of the week on either the Roman/Christian solar calendar, or the Babylonian/Jewish lunar calendar.

If we are ignorant of this, we remain in gola, no matter where we live, because we have cut ourselves off from Geula by turning our backs on what has been revealed to humankind from the very beginning.

But, you may ask, "How can we keep a 364 day calendar when there are 365 1/4 days on the solar year. The key is to pay attention to the four solar events that start each quarter. Then instead of adding a new day in February every four years, or adding whole months and days periodically in lunar years, all we need to do is wait for the solar events, and let the intercalary days (the last day in each quarter) take up the surplus.

The big difference between Enoch’s time and our time is that, as a result of the flood, the earth is now spinning faster. But the time from equinox to solstice to equinox to solstice is the same then as it is now, if you don’t count days, but rather hours or minutes. The elapsed time has not changed. The orbital speed of the earth around the sun is the same then as now, about 66,666 miles per hour, and the spin rate of the earth has nothing to do with equinoxes or solstices.

Do we wonder why we have so many spiritual and material problems? Do we ask where is God in times of trouble? It is about time to stop blaming God and realize that we have brought all these thing upon us because we have turned our backs on the times and days that will teach and redeem us from the world, is it not?

Keeping those days on the "clean" days and in humility and trust is what will guarantee our redemption. But as long as we hold on to tradition and rules of men our protection from evil will continue to elude us.

Even though Christians looked for a "rapture" or some kind of protection from tribulation, and the Jews looked for Geula on the Jewish “Feast of Trumpets,” as long as they allow themselves to be blinded by either tradition or commonly accepted ideas, their redemption will be far off and unrealized.

How long will religious folk live in gola (exile), when Geula (redemption) is so near at hand?

Thank you & Happy Rosh Hashanah

Thank you. You realize, of course, that the true “Rosh HaShana” (”First or beginning of the year”) happened at the time of the Spring Equinox: “This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year,” Exodus 12:2. And the Feast of Trumpets was on September 22/23, 2008 and not on September 30 - October 1?

Although few see this now, the Feast of Trumpets on Enoch’s calendar of this year is the most important end time High Day to this day. There was no “rapture” and no “Geula” but a change that will start to sweep the earth and drive all nations to the culmination of the Seventh Age.

And I lifted up my eyes and looked and saw a flying scroll.

And he said to me , “What do you see?”

And I answered, “I see a flying scroll, twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.”

And he said to me, “This is the curse that goes forth over the face of all the earth: ‘EVERYONE WHO IS STEALING SHALL BE SWEPT CLEAN AWAY,’ on the one side, according to it, and, ‘EVERYONE WHO SWEARS FALSELY SHALL BE SWEPT CLEAN AWAY,’ on the other side, according to it.

“And I shall send it out,” declares Yahua of Armies, “and it shall come into the house of the thief and the house of the one who shall swear falsely by My Name. And it shall remain in the midst of his house and shall consume it, both its timber and stones.”

And the messenger who was speaking with me came out and said to me, “Lift up your eyes now, and see what this is that is going forth.”

And I said, “What is it?”

And he said, “It is a measuring basket that is going forth.”

Again he said, “This is the iniquity of the people throughout the earth: And see, a lead cover lifted up, and this: a woman sitting inside the measuring basket!”

And he said, “This is WRONGNESS!” And he pushed her back into the measuring basket, and threw a lead cover over its mouth.

And I lifted up my eyes, and looked and saw two women, coming with the wind in their wings. And they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and the heavens.

“Where are they taking the basket?” I asked the messenger who was speaking to me.

He replied, “To the country of Babylon to build a house for it. When it is ready, the basket will be set there in its place.” Zechariah 5

A time of earnest prayer and sounding and shouting of Trumpets, is at hand. The people who know Yahua of Elohim, must come out of “Babylon.”

Then I looked up — and there before me was a man with a measuring line in his hand! I asked, “Where are you going?”

He answered me, “To measure Jerusalem, to find out how wide and how long it is.”

Then the messenger who was speaking to me left, and another messenger came to meet him and said to him: “Run, tell that young man, ‘Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of men and livestock in it. And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,’ declares Yahua, “and I will be its glory within.”

“Come! Come! Flee from the land of the north,” declares Yahua, “for I have scattered you to the four winds of heaven,” declares Yahua.

“Come, O Zion! Escape, you who live in the Daughter of Babylon!” For this is what Yahua Almighty says, “After he has honored me and has sent me against the nations that have plundered you - for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye — I will surely raise my hand against them so that their slaves will plunder them. Then you will know that Yahua Almighty has sent me.

“Shout and be glad, O Daughter of Zion. For I am coming, and I will live among you,” declares Yahua. “Many nations will be joined with Yahua in that day and will become my people. I will live among you and you will know that Yahua Almighty has sent me to you. Yahua will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land and will again choose Jerusalem. Be still before Yahua, all mankind, because he has roused himself from his holy dwelling.” Zechariah 2

Hello,

What are you doing special to celebrate the FOT? Do you actually live in a tent during these holy days? I really want to align myself with God’s word. And since you’ve been such a blessing to share your insight on the enochian calander, I wondered what you were actually doing during this time.

Kind Regards,

JB

Thanks!

I observed the High Day Sabbaths of the Feast of Trumpets, Yom KPR, and the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles. This included a total fast (no food or drink) on Yom KPR. These were all according to the times on Enoch’s calendar and not the Jewish calendar.

Even though part of the Feast of Tabernacles or Booths is to go to the appointed place to observe the Feast and stay in temporary dwellings, I do not know where that is at this time. I look forward to a time when we can do this.

One of the lessons of the Feast of Tabernacles is the recognition and awareness that this time is not our final dwelling place. But we look to the future and to the next ages. At this time during the first seven ages we must understand that we are only passing through. Therefore we cannot set our hearts on what we have here and try to cling to the things produced during the first seven ages.

The seven days of the Feast with the first being a High Day, is a symbol of the first seven ages or weeks of Enoch’s vision of human life on earth. The High day that follows, which some call the Last Great Day, points to the beginning of the next great age, the age of righteous rule.

The use of three feasts with , seven periods of feasting (Seven days of Unleavened Bread, the Seven Complete weeks followed by the Feast of Firstfruits/Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles, followed by the Last Great Day) are all related to Enoch’s vision of the “weeks” or ages. We need to experience and repetition to keep this into our thoughts.
