What is man?

What is prophesied to happen next?

Those of us from the lost ten tribes of Israel who discovered our identity as part of the commonwealth of Israel, the people with whose forefathers YHVH the Elohim of Israel made a covenant at Mount Sinai, fifty days after leading them out of the land of Egypt by the hand of Moses, about 3500 years ago, should be most grateful. Over a little more than a century ago a number of people in Great Britton and the USA discovered the identity of the lost ten tribes of Israel and as trailblazers started teaching those they got interested in these truths to start observing the Sabbaths of Elohim given in Leviticus 23 and Deuteronomy 16 and also started eating meat from animals declared kosher according to Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. In addition our Jewish Brothers also revealed the same truths about the missing ten tribes of Israel about 25 – 30 years ago when Yair Davidiy and others in Israel published a number of books on the subject.

At this time the two houses of Israel are two separate and distinct groups of people. However, despite being two separate entities they remain bound to the calling which they inherited from Jacob, to be a chosen nation of kings and priests. But, we are given the two house truth in Isaiah 8: 14, as follows: “Then He shall become a sanctuary; but to both the houses of Israel, a stone to strike and a rock to stumble over, and a snare and a trap for the inhabitants of Jerusalem.” As long as Israel and Judah stumble and take offense over the One who is their Rock, they will remain two separate entities. Today, the house of Judah is made up of Jews who have been preserved by Almighty YHVH and never lost their identity. On the other hand the house of Ephraim, which was sown into the nations of the world has become the fullness of nations, as Jacob said in Genesis 48: 19, in this way: “I know, my son, I know; he also shall become a people and he also shall be great. However, his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his descendants shall become a multitude of nations.” The Olive tree mentioned in Romans 11, is the same olive tree planted by YHVH in Jeremiah 11: 16 & 17, as follows: ‘YHVH called your name “A green olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”; with the noise of a great tumult He has kindled fire on it, and its branches are worthless. (17) And YHVH of hosts, who planted you, has pronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done to provoke Me by offering up sacrifices to Baal.’ The root of the olive tree is Yahshua as seen in Isaiah 11: 10 and Revelation 22: 16. As explained by Rav Shaul in Romans 11 the house of Judah is presently blinded to Yahshua’s identity to allow a remnant of the lost ten tribes who are being called out of mainly Christianity to return to obeying YHVH and His Torah teachings, according to Elohim’s gracious choice (verse 5). They are once again keeping the Feast Days of Elohim, in accordance with the calendar preserved by Judah and are making Judah jealous (verse 11), because they are keeping the same Feast Days with understanding Elohim’s plan of salvation for all mankind. They are studying Torah with a view to clean up their lives of sin and becoming Torah observant, to eventually become acceptable to Brother Judah as worshippers of YHVH and become Jewish in nature. From a portion of the Amidah prayer recited in synagogues every Sabbath, it is clear that our Jewish Brothers are expecting us back, but they believe that we are fully Jewish, meaning that we are completely Torah observant, as can be seen from that portion of the prayer given below:

Blessing of the Ingathering of Exiles – Sound the shofar for our freedom, raise the banner to gather our exiles and gather us together from the four corners of the earth. Blessed are You, YHVH, who gathers in the dispersed of His people of Israel.

It is therefore important that we touch base with them, to determine where we are still lacking. This is after all what is prophesied to start happening during our time as witnessed in Zechariah 8: 23, as follows: “Thus says YHVH of hosts, ‘In those days ten men from all the nations will grasp the garment (the tallit to which tzitzit is attached) of a Jew saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.”’’ I believe it is time for us to ask our heavenly Father in prayer to facilitate such meetings with Brother Judah so that we may start cooperating towards our common goal. Our reason for wanting to do so should be Scriptural and therefore obvious to them, since it is only once all hostility between our two groups are removed, that the Arab hordes around the Jewish nation of Israel in the middle-east will be conquered, as witnessed in Obadiah verses 18 & 19, as follows: ‘“Then the house of Jacob will be a fire and the house of Joseph a flame; but the house of Esau will be as stubble. And they will set them on fire and consume them, so that there will be no survivor of the house of Esau,” for YHVH has spoken. (19) Then those of the Negev (the south country) will possess the mountain of Esau, and those of the Shephelah (the foothills) the Philistine plain; also, they will possess the territory of Ephraim and the territory of Samaria, and Benjamin will possess Gilead.’ This is also confirmed in Isaiah 11: 14, in this way: ‘And they will swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines on the west; together they will plunder the sons of the east; they will possess Edom and Moab; and the sons of Ammon will be subject to them.’

A key to understanding the end time scriptures is to watch for Judah’s lead. Judah never lost their identity, the covenants, and their faith, and has been preserved by YHVH, as He promised through Hosea the prophet in Hosea 1: 7, as follows: “But I will have compassion on the house of Judah and deliver (save) them by YHVH their Elohim, and will not deliver them by bow, sword, battle, horses or horsemen.” This is in fact confirmed by Yahshua in Matthew 24, where He told His disciple what world conditions will be like immediately prior to His return, saying in verse 34: “Truly I say to you, this generation (race) will not pass away until all these things take place.” We read further about these end time events from Isaiah 11: 12, ‘And He (YHVH) will lift up a standard (Yahshua) for the nations, and will assemble the banished ones of Israel (Ephraim) and will gather the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth (this has and is happening since 1948).’ We see also from the first half of Ezekiel 37: 16, that Judah is gathered first, in this way: “And you, son of man, take for yourself one stick and write on it, ‘For Judah and for the sons of Israel, his companions.” We also see that since that time the stick of Joseph/Ephraim is also being gathered as we read in the remainder of verse 16 & 17, as follows: “Then take another stick and write on it, ‘For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and all the house of Israel his companions.’ (17) Then join them for yourself one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.” We know that Joseph is made up of the English speaking nations of the world, but here we see that the other tribes are also included, when Judah and the 10 lost tribes of Israel will come together in the end of days.

Since the re-establishment of the Jewish nation in the land of Israel in the Middle East, the nations surrounding them were hostile and became more so over time. Because of the aid that nations like the USA and the UK have given the small nation of Israel, the Arab nations have also launched terrorist attacks against them. As a result we are living in a dangerous uncertain world. With war and other catastrophic events looming, it is necessary for us to gain an understanding of the prophetic perspective about to play out in the short time ahead. According to the prophets of the Scriptures, our days are marked with wars and great chaos. However, when we realize that all of this has been predicted before, we can rejoice in the knowledge that our redemption is near. The two houses of Israel will soon be united. We read a prophesy about Yahshua from Hosea 5: 15 – 6: 4 in this way: ‘I will go away and return to My place until they acknowledge their guilt and seek My face; in their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.’ (Since the beginning of 2009 things started going wrong and the world’s economy is in turmoil; for the first time the predictions that we were warned about during the seventies started happening. During the next few years it will go from bad to worse; so much so that most of those who doubted in the past will turn to Yahshua/YHVH for help.) (1) “Come let us return to YHVH. For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bandage us. (2) He will revive us after two days; He will raise us up on the third day that we may live before Him. (Yahshua will return after 2000 years and resurrect those who died in Him) (3) So let us know, let us press on to know YHVH. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; and He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain watering the earth.” (4) What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your loyalty is like a morning cloud, and like the dew which goes away early.’ We are told here that Yahshua will not return until we, the remnant of the lost ten tribes has become fully Torah observant. It will only be once we are fully Torah observant that Judah will recognize us as their brother.

This is in agreement with what Yahshua taught in Matthew 5: 17 – 20, as follows: “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill. (18) For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass away from the Law, until all is accomplished. (19) Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and so teaches others, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. (20) For I say to you, that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.” The last verse does not say that the scribes and the Pharisees shall not be in the kingdom, but the statement by Yahshua is aimed at us from the lost sheep of the house of Israel, who are more prone to idolatry and lust all sorts of unclean foods. When we observe all the Torah commandments better than the Pharisees, i.e. from the heart; then our Jewish Messiah will return. This is one of the conditions that have to be satisfied before Yahshua will come to cut short the duration of the great tribulation in order to save the lives of the elect. A second condition which Yahshua himself mentioned, was as given in Matthew 24: 14, as follows: ‘And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world for a witness to all the nations, and then the end shall come.’ Judah cannot rebuild the nation of Israel alone. There might be Jews who believe in their hearts that the lost ten tribes are lost forever and that they will have to rebuild the nation on their own, but there are also Nazarene/Messianic Israelite and likeminded believers such as the Churches of G-d and the Assemblies of YHVH who believe that they will be saved without Brother Judah. But both these groups are mistaken, despite being very sincere.

There are many Scriptural proofs that both Judah and Israel will be saved together, one of which is recorded in Jeremiah 33: 6 - 11, as follows: ‘Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them; and I will reveal to them an abundance of peace and truth. (7) And I will restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and I will rebuild them as they were at first. (8) And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against Me, and I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against Me, and by which they have transgressed against Me. (9) And it shall be to Me a name of joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear of all the good that I do for them, and they shall fear and tremble because of all the good and all the peace that I make for it. (10) “Thus says YHVH, ‘Yet again there shall be heard in this place, of which you say, “It is a waste, without man and without beast,” that is, in the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beast, (11) the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, “Give thanks to YHVH of hosts, for YHVH is good, for His lovingkindness is everlasting”; and of those who bring a thank offering into the house of YHVH. For I will restore the fortunes of the land as they were at first,’ says YHVH.’ The question is why do some in the two camps think and believe that they can make it on their own. The reason is a jealousy in both groups which will only disappear near the end of this age, as prophesied in Isaiah 11: 13, in this way: ‘Then the jealousy of Ephraim will depart, and those who harass Judah will be cut off; Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah, and Judah will not harass Ephraim.’

We also read about the same restoration of the fortunes of both Israel and Judah from Jeremiah 30. This will occur during a time of great distress, when YHVH will intervene for His people once again, as we read from verses 2 – 9, “Thus says YHVH, the Elohim of Israel, ‘Write all the words which I have spoken to you in a book. (3) For, behold, days are coming,’ declares YHVH, ‘when I will restore the fortunes of My people Israel and Judah.’ YHVH says, ‘I will also bring them back to the land that I gave to their forefathers, and they shall possess it.’” (4) ‘Now these are the words which YHVH spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.’ (5) “For thus says YHVH, ‘I have heard a sound of terror, of dread, and there is no peace. (6) Ask now, and see, if a male can give birth. Why do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in childbirth? And why have all faces turned pale? (7) Alas! for that day is great, there is none like it; and it is the time of Jacob’s distress, but he will be saved from it. (If you are part of Jacob, you will already be distressed; Israelites are in deep trouble, especially those from the USA, the UK, South Africa and most of the western world). (8) ‘And it shall come about on that day,’ declares YHVH of hosts, ‘that I will break his yoke from off their neck, and will tear off their bonds; and strangers shall no longer make them their slaves. (9) But they shall serve YHVH their Elohim, and David their king, whom I will raise up for them.” Torah observant Jews remained faithful to YHVH as we read from the correct translation of Hosea 11: 12 in the King James Version of the Scriptures, in this way: ‘Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with Elohim and is faithful with the saints.’ Because of their persecution and sufferings over the past 2500 years, YHVH has written Judah’s sins on their hearts, as witnessed in Jeremiah 17: 1, as follows: ‘The sin of Judah is written down with an iron stylus; with a diamond point it is engraved upon the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of their altars.’ After the Second World War, there were some Jews who like their European counterparts, lost their faith, but many remained loyal to YHVH and ‘yet ruleth with Elohim.’ Our Jewish brothers are presently blinded to the identity of Yahshua and are keeping Torah, to show their good works, and not by faith, as confirmed in verses 32 & 33 of Romans 9, in this way: ‘Why? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as though it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone, (33) just as it is written, “BEHOLD, I LAY IN ZION A STONE OF STUMBLING AND A ROCK OF OFFENCE, AND HE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.”’ Their fear of disobedience ensures that they are very meticulous about keeping the Oracles entrusted to them by Elohim, as we read from Romans 3: 1 - 4.

Rav Shaul, talks about the Jews, being his blood relatives in Romans 10: 1 – 3, as follows: ‘Brethren, my heart’s desire and my prayer to Elohim for them (Judah) is for their salvation. (2) For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for Elohim, but not in accordance with knowledge. (3) For not knowing about Elohim’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of Elohim.’ Because of fear, the Jews have an almost mechanistic view of Torah and do not fully understand Elohim’s righteousness. They keep Torah because they try to establish their own righteousness and do not subject themselves to Elohim’s righteousness. They do not fully understand that without Yahshua, who is the way the truth and the life, we have no righteousness. He is the goal of the Torah for those who believe, as we read from verse 4, in this way: ‘For Messiah is the end (goal) of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.’ It is as we read from verses 5 – 10 of Romans 10, in this way: ‘For Moses writes that the man who practices the righteousness which is based on law shall live by that righteousness. (6) But the righteousness based on faith speaks thus, “DO NOT SAY IN YOUR HEART, ‘WHO WILL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN?’ (that is, to bring Messiah down), (7) or ‘WHO WILL DESCEND INTO THE ABYSS?’ (that is, to bring Messiah up from the dead).” (8) But what does it say? “THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART”– that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, (9) that if you confess with your mouth Yahshua as Master, and believe in your heart that Elohim raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved; (10) for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.’ However, according to Romans 11: 25 – 28, we need not be concerned about their ‘lack’ of faith, since we are the ones who are required to return to Elohim at this time, as follows: ‘For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery, lest you be wise in your own estimation, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel (meaning Judah) until the fullness of the Gentiles (members of the lost ten tribes who believe that they are Gentiles) has come in; (26) and thus all Israel will be saved; just as it is written, “THE DELIVERER WILL COME FROM ZION, HE WILL REMOVE UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB. (27) AND THIS IS MY COVENANT WITH THEM, WHEN I TAKE AWAY THEIR SINS.” (28) From the standpoint of the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but from the standpoint of Elohim’s choice they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.’

As called out believers in the word of Elohim we need to concentrate on two things at this time. The first being what Yahshua taught in Luke 12: 31, “But seek for His kingdom, and these things shall be added to you.” If we do everything in our power to please YHVH and to make it into His Eternal Kingdom, our needs in this life will also be met. Secondly, we should hold Torah up like a mirror to determine our shortcomings. We need to understand that sin is the transgression of the law (as per first John 3: 4), and if we want to stop sinning we should stop transgressing Torah. We should even keep and teach those commandments considered least, as Yahshua taught in Matthew 5: 19. However, we need to understand that we cannot keep the commandments on our own. As witnessed in first Corinthians 2: 11 & 12 human beings cannot understand the Spiritual things of Elohim, unless we have a portion of His Set-apart Spirit indwelling us, as follows: ‘For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man, which is in him? Even so the thoughts of Elohim no one knows except the Spirit of Elohim. (12) Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from Elohim, that we might know the things freely given to us by Elohim.’ It is important therefore, that those of us called by Elohim at this time be immersed in the saving name of Yahshua our Messiah to receive the Set-apart Spirit (as per Acts 2: 38). We need to understand that Torah shows us what is sin, and if we start practicing righteousness; eating only kosher (including not mixing meat and milk products); keeping the weekly and annual Sabbaths of Elohim; wearing tzitzit; circumcise both our hearts (being immersed) and flesh (only applicable to men), as well as keeping all other commands applicable to us as kings and priests in the making, we do what YHVH requires of each one of us, as recorded in Deuteronomy 10: 12 & 13, as follows: ‘And now, Israel, what does YHVH your Elohim require from you, but to fear YHVH you Elohim, to walk in all His ways and love Him, and to serve YHVH your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul, (13) and to keep (YHVH)’s commandments and His statutes which I am commanding you today for your good?’

When Yahshua our Messiah returns His government will replace all the existing governments on the earth as King David prophesied in Psalm 2: 2 – 9 in this way: ‘The kings of the earth take their stand, and the rulers take counsel together against YHVH and against His Anointed (Messiah): (3) Let us tear their fetters (restraining chains) apart, and cast away their cords from us! (4) He who sits in the heavens laughs, YHVH scoffs at them. (5) Then He will speak to them in His anger and terrify them in His fury: (6) “But as for Me, I have installed My King upon Zion, My holy (set-apart) mountain. (7) I will surely tell of the decree of YHVH: He said to Me, ‘Thou art My Son, today I have begotten Thee. (8) Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Thine inheritance, and the very ends of the earth as Thy possession. (9) Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron, Thou shalt shatter them like earthenware.’” As King of kings and Master of masters, Yahshua will rule with divine force and make major changes in the way nations are governed at this time. We read accordingly from Isaiah 2: 4, ‘And He will judge between the nations, and will render decisions for many peoples; and they will hammer their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, and never again will they learn war.’ We read further from Isaiah 11: 4 & 5, about Messiah’s rule, in this way: ‘But with righteousness He will judge the poor, and decide with fairness for the afflicted of the earth; and He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and with the breath of His lips He will slay the wicked. (5) Also righteousness will be the belt about His loins, and faithfulness the belt about His waist.’

Messiah will reestablish the nation of Israel as a model nation to the rest of the world. He will gather the descendants of the ancient house of Israel from where He has scattered them and join them to the house of Judah, so that they will again become the united nation of Israel, as witnessed in Isaiah 11: 11, as follows: ‘Then it will happen on that day that YHVH will again recover the second time with His hand the remnant of His people, who will remain, from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and from the islands (or coastland) of the sea.’ Yahshua will rule the united nation of Israel from King David’s throne, as YHVH promised David many years ago. At that time He will institute Elohim’s New Covenant with the united nation of Israel, as recorded in Jeremiah 31: 31 - 33, in this way: “Behold, days are coming,” declares YHVH, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, (32) not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,” declares YHVH. (33) But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares YHVH, “I will put My law within them, and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.” We also see from Jeremiah 33: 7 & 8, how Yahshua will accomplish it, as follows: ‘And I will restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and I will rebuild them as they were at first. (8) And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against Me, and I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against Me, and by which they have transgressed against Me.” After having changed Israel into the model nation that YHVH wanted them to be from the time He called them out of Egypt, the other nations will see the results of Israel’s obedience to Elohim and will also begin to serve and obey Him, as we are told in Isaiah 2: 3, in this way: ‘And many peoples will come and say, “come, let us go up to the mountain of YHVH, to the house of the Elohim of Jacob; that He may teach us concerning His ways, and that we may walk in His paths.” For the law will go forth from Zion, and the word of YHVH from Jerusalem.’

Yes, as prophesied in Isaiah 42; 21 Yahshua will make the law honorable, as follows: ‘YHVH was pleased for His righteousness’ sake to make the law great and glorious.’ At that time all the people alive in the world will respect and obey the Torah commands of YHVH our Elohim and Yahshua will restore the world to the condition it was in before Adam and Eve sinned and was expelled from the Garden of Eden. So we see that the restoration of the united nation of Israel will only be the beginning of what Yahshua will come to do at His return, as YHVH says in Isaiah 42: 1, in this way: “Behold, My Servant, whom I uphold; My chosen one in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations (or Gentiles).” Yahshua will give these nations a choice, rather than conquering them by force, they can change their ways and cooperate with Him to receive the same blessings that they will be able to see in Jerusalem and the land of Israel. If these nations obey and keep the Feast days of Elohim, they will also be blessed, but if they don’t, they will not receive any rain, as we read about in Zechariah 14: 16 - 19, as follows; ‘Then it will come about that any who are left of all the nations that went against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, YHVH of hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of booths. (17) And it will be that whichever of the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, YHVH of hosts, there will be no rain on them. (18) And if the family of Egypt does not go up or enter, then no rain will fall on them; it will be the plague with which YHVH smites the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Booths. (19) This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Booths.’ Finally the world will be in the condition we read about in Isaiah 11: 6 – 10, in this way: ‘And the wolf will dwell with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the kid, and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little boy will lead them. (7) Also the cow and the bear will graze; their young will lie down together; and the lion will eat straw like the ox. (8) And the nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra. And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den. (9) They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of YHVH as the waters cover the sea. (10) Then it will come about in that day that the nations will resort to the root of Jesse, who will stand as a signal for the peoples; and His resting place will be glorious.’

Even though going green and using less electricity and fuel will go a long way to save our planet and some money, it will not solve the environmental problems facing the world today. YHVH wants us to understand that the coming Kingdom of Elohim is the only lasting solution to all the problems facing the world at this time, as we are suitably warned in Isaiah 24: 4 – 6, in this way: ‘The earth mourns and withers, the world fades and withers, the exalted of the people of the earth fade away. (5) The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they transgressed laws, violated statutes, broke the everlasting covenant[1]. (6) Therefore, a curse devours the earth, and those who live in it are held guilty. Therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left.’ We need to realize that the only way in which we are able to save our planet is if we all start obeying Elohim’s Torah. We should also all pray as Yahshua taught us in the model prayer in Matthew 6: 9 – 13, as follows: “Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. (10) Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. (11) Give us this day our daily bread. (12) And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. (13) And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amein.” We need to realize that the tabernacle of David spoken about in Acts 15: 16 will only be restored after the two houses of Israel are again ruled by a descendant of King David. That will be when the Kingdom of Elohim will again be established on earth as it is in heaven, but also was when King Solomon ruled the commonwealth of Israel, as is confirmed in 1 Chronicles 28: 4 & 5, in this way: ‘Yet, YHVH, the Elohim of Israel, chose me from all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever. For He has chosen Judah to be a leader; and in the house of Judah, my father’s house, and among the sons of my father He took pleasure in me to make me king, over all Israel. (5) And of all my sons (for YHVH has given me many sons), He has chosen my son Solomon to sit on the throne of the kingdom of YHVH over Israel.’ Think about it!

[1] According to Exodus 31: 16, the Sabbath is Elohim’s everlasting covenant with His people, as follows: “So the sons of Israel shall observe the Sabbath, to celebrate the Sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual (everlasting) covenant.”
