Description

Matthew 16.1-4:Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came and testing him asked that He would show them a Sign from Heaven. He answered and said to them, “When it is evening you say, fair weather, for the sky is red; and in the morning, foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.” Hypocrites! You know how to understand the face of the sky, but you cannot the Signs of the Times.What did Yeshua mean with the statement, “But you cannot understand the Signs of the Times”? Here is the apparent answer from the Qumran texts of the Dead Sea Scrolls:Qumran 4Q271 Fragment 4, Column II, Line 5: English translation - Israel in all these matters, behold, [it is defi]ned in «The book [of the Divisions of The Times according to their Jubilees and their Weeks».]The words appearing in the Hebrew text are “sefer machlakot haetim” - scroll of the divisions of the times. This points us to the Book of Jubilees retelling of the Day 4 Genesis creation story. Therefore, to learn Yeshua's lesson on the Signs of the Times OR the Divisions of the Times, our best understanding comes from Day 4 of the creation narrative in Genesis 1:14-19. This is a biblical metaphor about the purpose of the Sun and the Moon.1) The Greater Luminary – the Sun – is a parable and metaphor of Messiah's Sons of Light. The Sons of Light live IN the world but are not OF the world. 2) The Lesser luminary – the Moon – is a parable and metaphor of Messiah's Light in the darkness. We are like the light of the Moon testifying of his festival truths in a world of spiritual darkness and night.Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/biz/fund?id=23WBKCMBHKDT8/Ancient Roads: Real Israel Talk Radio)

NOTICE: New weekly podcasts are NOT being produced at this present time. I am taking some much-needed time off to focus on my personal relationship with Yehovah and my family. Thanks so much for understanding. Yah willing, I shall return when I am supposed to return. In the meantime, I have archived well over 100 programs, each at 50-minutes from the previous two years beginning January 2020. ABOUT THIS PODCAST: In speaking about Israel, there is a physical and material State that was voted into legal existence on November 29, 1947, and then politically declared to be the State of Israel on May 14, 1948. However, there is yet another Israel that very few are even aware of. This is a spiritual entity represented by the God of Israel (יהוה) in the biblical Hebrew narratives of Tanakh (The Torah, the Prophets, the Writings) and HaBrit HaChadasha (The New Testament) writings as "My People." This holy entity is not specifically about Jews or non-Jews (i.e., "Gentiles"). This is a spiritually Holy and Separated Torah People, a Nation, a Messianic Light to the world. In this weekly podcast, I have much to say about these "born from above" people as Yeshua (Jesus) spoke about. In this podcast, I address a number of spiritual issues relating to the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil (Genesis 2:17 and Chapter 3), The Tree of Life (Genesis 2:9; 2:17), the Law of Moses -- the Torah; the New Covenant or New Testament; and how all the biblical and theological terminology should be understood and how the biblical Hebraic concepts can be applied to our everyday life.
