--Sharing our Saviour Yahushua the Messiah to the
World!--
-Please Read this FIRST- On this site we prefer to use the actual Name
of our loving Heavenly Father as it was written in the Word, and thus you
will note that we will use the Four Letter “Memorial Name” of 
- YHVH, which is pronounced as YaHVaH
or YaHWaH. In addition we will also use our Heavenly Father’s
attribute/title, which is Elohim rather than “God,” which
sadly is the name of a pagan god. In addition we also love to use the actual
and real Name of our beloved Messiah which is 
- Yahushua or Yahshua in short, for
this is our Saviours original Hebrew Name as given to Him at birth in Lukas
- Luke 1:31. This was the only Name ever used when He was on the earth by His
family, disciples and His followers OVER THE centuries, even until today!
However, it was changed to a foreign name by the founder of the new
“pagan church of Rome.”
Occasionally, we may also use other Hebrew or Greek names as well as different
words in our studies for certain common words used are from pagan backgrounds
and thus are not suitable. All names will be translated when they are FIRST
used in a study or at various times as needed for clarity. There is a full
explanation of YHVH’s blessed “Memorial Name” as well
as the wonderful blessed Name of our Messiah and Saviour, thus please
read … “The Memorial Name.”
The
three levels of learning & understanding of the blessed Word of YaHVaH
Elohim (the Lord God):
When we read and study the
blessed Scriptures, the Word of YHVH Elohim as a believer in Yahushua the
Messiah, we should keep the following three steps always in mind for they are a
valuable guide and it will certainly provide us with guidance and illuminate
the sheer beauty and the fullness of YHVH’s most blessed Word.
1. Who was YHVH Elohim, blessed
be His Sanctified Name, speaking to?
2. When was it said?
3. How was His Word understood at
the time it was spoken/given?
I do believe that these three
points are most relevant to our understanding of 1. What the Almighty is
saying at the time – 2. As well as what it means to us today - and 3.
Especially to you and me right now!
Introduction to the “Chart” below:
On this page
I am going to comprehensively cover the actual details of events of that most
important week, when our beloved Saviour rode triumphantly into Jerusalem on
the first day with great jubilation of the faithful in Him, whilst just four
days later on Wednesday, or the Hebrew Day 4, Yahushua was being judged and the
sinful of Israel cried out, “Away with Him, away with Him! Crucify
Him!” Yochanan - John 19:15.
During this
period, three feasts of YaHVaH Elohim took place, each of these having great
relevance to the events that took place during this week, for Passover spoke of
Yahushua being the “HaSeh Elohim” or “The Lamb of
Elohim.” It is vital to know that “Seh” always refers
to a sacrificial lamb, for there are other words for “lamb”
in the Word that mean a lamb that may well be blemished and this word is
generally “kebes” an everyday “lamb.”
Yochanan the
Immerser, who was on the other side of River Jordan
at Bethany,
announced “Look, the Lamb of Elohim, who takes away the sin of the
world!” Yochanan - John 1:29.
Of course as was usual at the time, he spoke in Hebrew and not in
Aramaic for whenever things related to the Almighty were spoken of, it had to
be done in the Scriptural language, just as it is done to this very day in
every single Orthodox Synagogue, it is only in the modern breakaway modernised
versions that have part Hebrew and English, etc! But Yochanan used the words
“HaSeh Elohim” the “Lamb of Elohim.” Thus
all present knew very well that he was speaking about a “Sacrificial lamb
of Elohim!” It is also interesting that he said – “THE
sin.” It is in the singular tense and that is for a reason, for the point
is this, break just one commandment of YaHVaH Elohim and you have broken all of
His commandments! And that is called “the sin” and worthy of death!
Thus, it is through faith, repentance and keeping His commandments as Yahushua
has so clearly told us to, that we will be living in His will!
The Feasts:
Pesach - the killing of the
Passover Lambs: Yahushua is the provision as the Passover Lamb – Yom
HaMazot - Unleavened Bread: Reveals that Yahushua was without spot and
blemish, without sin and worthy to be the Passover Lamb! – Reshit
Katzir - Firstfruits of the Harvest: Prophetic of Messiah’s
resurrection as well as that of the faithful in Him in the latter days!
The Week of our blessed Saviour!
Please Note: Day 1 = Saturday
evening & Sunday, whilst the Sabbath is day 7, that commences on
Friday evening and continues on Saturday, Sunday = day 1 and so forth. This of
course reflects the Hebrew system of days. As you can see, it is also important
to note that the Scriptural day always commences from the first star in the
evening, thus it starts anytime from 4.30 to 6.30 PM - give or take, pending
where you live and the seasons. Resurection
The
Chart - Nisan 11 to 18 in the Week of Our Saviour!
Day
1 - Nisan 11 - Sunday daytime. Yahushua’s
triumphant entry into Jerusalem
– Called “Palm Sunday” by many!
Day
2 - Nisan 12 - Sunday eve.
Day
2 - Monday daytime.
Day
3 - Nisan 13 - Monday eve. After
two days is Passover Mattityahu – Matthew 26:1-2 & Markus –
Mark 14: 1-2.
The
anointing at Bethany - Mattityahu – Matthew 26:6-13.
Day
3 - Tuesday daytime. The
Apostles go and prepare for a pre Passover meal with Yahushua as they were
instructed.
Day
4 - Nisan 14 - Tuesday eve. Yahushua
and the Apostles have their “Seder” on the evening of the
“Day of the Preparation” – Judas goes and betrays Messiah,
who after the meal with His Apostles goes up on the Mt of Olives to pray and
Yahushua is arrested.
Day
4 - Wednesday daytime. Yahushua
tried and placed on the stake in the morning hours. He “gave His life
freely” at the hour that the “Passover Lamb” (3 PM) were
killed. He was placed in the tomb just before the High Sabbath commenced.
Day
5 - Nisan 15 - Wednesday eve. The
Seder on the Night of Unleavened Bread - A High Sabbath.
Day
5 - Thursday daytime. The
High Sabbath day.
Day
6 - Nisan 16 - Thursday eve. The
feast “Reshit Katzir” or “Firstfruits of the
Harvest.”
Day
6 - Friday daytime. We
know from the Word that Yahushua was in the tomb for “Three days and
Three Nights” Mattityahu - Matthew 12:40. That is Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday nights!
Sabbath
7 - Nisan 17 - Friday eve. Eve
of the Weekly Sabbath.
Sabbath
7 - Saturday daytime. The
Sabbath day – at the very same time Yahushua was placed into the tomb and
it was closed, YaHVaH Elohim raised Messiah from the dead and He left the
tomb seventy-two hours after He was placed into the tomb. This was as our
beloved Saviour had so clearly foretold in Mattityahu - Matthew 12:38-40. A
study covering this subject is online! Yahushua is the “Firstfruits of
them that slept” 1 Corinthians 15:20.
Day
1 - Nisan 18 - Saturday eve. Messiah
has already risen! HalleluYAH.
Day
1 - Sunday daytime. As
we also know from the Word, very early in the morning Yahushua had already
risen as we are clearly told in the Word. Although Miriam, Yahushua’s
mother and Miriam Magdalene arrived at the tomb before it was light and they
were told by the angels that Messiah had already risen!
I
pray beloved that the above makes it so much easier for you to follow what
occurred during that big week in the history of the world, for it was indeed a
life giving moment, when our beloved Saviour submitted and suffered by the evil
hands of men and was beaten and scourged and finally nailed to a stake until He
finally gave up His earthly life for us, in order that we might be saved from
our sins and have LIFE!
Please
read; When
was Messiah Resurrected?
“Teach me Your way, O
YHVH. I will walk in Your truth.
UNITE MY HEART TO FEAR YOUR NAME!”
Tehillim
– Psalms 86:11
May YHVH Elohim bless and keep you in the palm
of His hand always, in Messiah Yahushua’s loving Name!

Yahushua
said; “No
one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise
him up at the last day. It is written in the Prophets: They will all be taught
by Elohim. Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from Him comes to Me.
No one has seen the Father except the One who is from Elohim; only He has seen
the Father. I tell you the truth he who believes has everlasting life.” Yochanan
(John) 6:43-48.
