Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
Introduction to a.s.w.
Why AShortWork.org
Most of us who plan to contribute to this venue are near the end of our service as members of the Ekklesia simply because of age and strength. As a result, considering the present distress in society and the ongoing deception and distress in the churches of God, we don't consider this is the time or place to stand aside. True unity is not with each other, it is with YHVH and Jesus Christ. If numbers were a consideration then most of us could have just stayed in the organization we were in when we were called.
Appointed Times: Tabernacles Day 4
The Day of YHVH (Continued)
The first half of the book of Isaiah focuses on YHVH coming to put down all rebellion and to establish His reign. The terminology is heavily...the day of YHVH, in that day. The second half of the book changes the focus and includes prophesies of Jesus Christ and of salvation being offered to the Gentiles/nations. The harvest of the nations is pictured by the Feast of Booths and is the third and final harvest celebration of the year.

Featured Study
Passover: Ceremony or a Meal?
This study has pointedly reminded me that the prism, or paradigm, through which I previously viewed these scriptures, was taught and accepted without question or any true biblical scholarship. Hopefully, the washing of water by the Word will eventually cleanse the "stream of understanding" of the residual, obscuring silt.
Leviticus 23:34-36 NKJV
Speak to the children of Israel, saying: 'The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days to the LORD.
On the first day there shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work on it.
For seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation, you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. It is a sacred assembly, and you shall do no customary work on it.
For seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. On the eight day you shall have a holy convocation, and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. It is a sacred assembly, and you shall do no customary work.
