Numbers 17:1-11 ~ before the Lord to all the people

 


Numbers 17:1-11



1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel, and get from them staffs, one for each fathers' house, from all their chiefs according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. Write each man's name on his staff, 3 and write Aaron's name on the staff of Levi. For there shall be one staff for the head of each fathers' house. 

4 Then you shall deposit them in the tent of meeting before the testimony, where I meet with you. 5 And the staff of the man whom I choose shall sprout. Thus, I will make to cease from me the grumblings of the people of Israel, which they grumble against you.” 

6 Moses spoke to the people of Israel. And all their chiefs gave him staffs, one for each chief, according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. And the staff of Aaron was among their staffs. 7 And Moses deposited the staffs before the Lord in the tent of the testimony.

8 On the next day Moses went into the tent of the testimony, and behold, the staff of Aaron for the house of Levi had sprouted and put forth buds and produced blossoms, and it bore ripe almonds. 

9 Then Moses brought out all the staffs from before the Lord to all the people of Israel. And they looked, and each man took his staff. 

10 And the Lord said to Moses, “Put back the staff of Aaron before the testimony, to be kept as a sign for the rebels, that you may make an end of their grumblings against me, lest they die.” 11 Thus did Moses; as the Lord commanded him, so he did.



An incredible record of the Tools of the Temple, in Numbers 17. Seen in 2023 in the Arch of Titus, in Rome.

Relief carved on the Arch of Titus showing the Triumph after the destruction of Jerusalem, these are the Temple Tools, but not the Ark of the Covenant. After 1,935 years, Roman Jews proudly walked under the Titus Arch, for the first time because Israel was again a nation, May 14, 1948.

About the 3rd to 4th century AD, the Jews collected enough money to rebuild the Temple, but the building was destroyed by an earthquake, while still under construction. Then war.


How the relief appears today - 2,000 years later.





When we consider how many people had a seat, at this vastly impressive work of the Lord, table, we find an amazing array of opinions, needs and agendas. The Lord immediately gives a sign for continuance. Old houses survive a generation or 5 generations, before the place is known no more. However, a work of the Lord continues. 


These Churches are built with Roman Empire Bricks.
St Cedes is 600 AD. Saxon time.

The Size of the Church tells us Christianity was established far earlier than we imagine.




The archway is all Roman Empire Bricks. The History of the Roman Empire's methods, history and Architecture is known.



(Skip the new Steeple in the photo.)

This is Essex Way Greenstead Church, U.K. 
This remarkable Church has something going on, not readily apparent. 

This is the way Churches looked in England before 1,000 A.D., the invasion of Norman's William the Conqueror. In fact, the Churches used to be like this and have timber. This Church has timber in it, from mostly 1000 A.D., but going back to 600 A.D.  This is two hundred years before Alfred the Great ---- who began to Record History.

Build during the Saxon Invasion, who loved to kill and plunder the gold and silver altar tools,
this was very brave indeed.

And... like the House Church in Thesseloniki
This is a House Church as described in the New Testament
Latomos Monastery - Church of Hosios David Epimenidou 17, Thessaloniki 546 33, Greece
aspects of the Monastery go back to 500 A.D.


These Churches began within baby steps in history from the First Council of Nicaea. The First Council of Nicaea was 325 A.D. and decided, in the Holy Spirit, the books to include in the New Testament of the Bible. Saint Nicolas, Bishop of Turkey, left prison, traveled through dangerous times to attend.

 

 The incredible spread of Christ believers around the world.

What could have been drawbacks for the spread of the Christian faith?


1 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel, and get from them staffs, one for each fathers' house, from all their chiefs according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. Write each man's name on his staff, 3 and write Aaron's name on the staff of Levi. For there shall be one staff for the head of each fathers' house. 

4 Then you shall deposit them in the tent of meeting before the testimony, where I meet with you. 5 And the staff of the man whom I choose shall sprout. Thus, I will make to cease from me the grumblings of the people of Israel, which they grumble against you.” 

6 Moses spoke to the people of Israel. And all their chiefs gave him staffs, one for each chief, according to their fathers' houses, twelve staffs. And the staff of Aaron was among their staffs. 7 And Moses deposited the staffs before the Lord in the tent of the testimony.

8 On the next day Moses went into the tent of the testimony, and behold, the staff of Aaron for the house of Levi had sprouted and put forth buds and produced blossoms, and it bore ripe almonds. 9 Then Moses brought out all the staffs from before the Lord to all the people of Israel. And they looked, and each man took his staff. 

10 And the Lord said to Moses, “Put back the staff of Aaron before the testimony, to be kept as a sign for the rebels, that you may make an end of their grumblings against me, lest they die.” 11 Thus did Moses; as the Lord commanded him, so he did.

The opposition of an entire Nation could be a problem.

The Chiefs of the nation, would they participate?

The wrangling for new positions, without a sincere effort.

The families within households fight earnestly.

Where would the Head of this new organization exist?

The people could grumble the idea to death.

The people of Israel truly were abused, enslaved people. How to group such a people of disadvantages into a cohesive group.


Really, what is required, is only a miracle.

Continuance.

God Alone allows Continuance.



In the 2nd century BC, the Essenes, forming a community in Qumran, began writing the Dead Sea Scrolls.

In 4Q521, the scrolls tell us what this religious community was looking for in the Messiah’s ministry:

"the heavens and the earth will listen to His Messiah, and none therein will stray from the commandments of the holy ones. Seekers of the Lord, strengthen yourselves in His service! All you hopeful in (your) heart, will you not find the Lord in this? For the Lord will consider the pious (hasidim) and call the righteous by name. Over the poor His spirit will hover and will renew the faithful with His power. 

And He will glorify the pious on the throne of the eternal Kingdom. He who liberates the captives, restores sight to the blind, straightens the b[ent] And f[or] ever I will cleav[e to the h]opeful and in His mercy . . . And the fr[uit . . .] will not be delayed for anyone."

~ Photo of 4Q521, Dead Sea Scroll. Found in Cave 4, Qumran. Written in 2 BC. The Essenes probably hid their papyrus away in 69 or 70 AD, before being destroyed by Titus' armies.

The Essenes believed the Lord and were a community of faith. They believed. They didn't meet Jesus, that we know of, yet they knew what the gospels would proclaim about the Messiah.


Mark 10:27

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible,
 but not with God; 
all things are possible with God."



The Scriptures record
"Jesus Healed Them All"
several times,
Luke 4, Matthew 15, Luke 6


Abba, Father,


God, You are so Good,
You want us to Rejoice
and find
God's will done on earth
as in Heaven.

Lenten opportunity to give:
We pray for relief to help and reach Syria
and Turkey. 6.4 and 4.9 earthquakes this week.
We pray this will cease. Lord, Your mercy upon this land and 
Your people.

We pray Amazon puts back Amazon Smile,
philanthropy is needed today and this program
was wonderful. Many will feel the clip if Amazon Smile doesn't
continue. Please Lord.

Your Words are Living and Active, when we long for Your Words, 
You are there.

Help us and encourage us to see, what this season teaches us. 
With Your Spirit, we will be Brave, filled with Valor, and Diligent. 
You have taught us, when we wander away and have fallen, 
You will search for us. 
Help us in those moments to be found by Jesus, 
wonderful Jesus.

Help us to see the Blessings in each day and in finding Your Blessings, 
the day is blessed. 

The times of refreshing, more enduring. 
Meaningful Life. Abundant Life to Look Up and Find 
the benefits You daily give and load us with
. If we don't see our blessings, we cannot live our Blessings.

In Your Enduring and Prevailing Love, 
Grace and Mercy we Live.

We are Blessed to seek You First. 
Blessed to be finding the High Way of Your Heaven today. 
Blessed to ask to see more Heaven upon earth. 
Blessed to have You as our Daily Bread. 
Blessed to ask to Live Love, Joy and Peace.

Blessed to pray in expectation of Your Love and Willingness. 
Blessed to say Thank You that during Holy Week, 
we have seen the Glimpse of Your Glory 
working to heal the fullness of the earth, Yours.

We have had problems in our neighborhood, 
theft of a mower, acts of violence.
 Pray for peace, please. 

My mother's roof is in sudden need of
repairs and we want to find the best solutions for her house.
During the rainy season.

In Jesus, we Live and ask this for those we Love. 
We pray for our own strength, 
Love and ask Jesus to cover this Nation, those who lead this Nation 
and all other nations in this good fight. 

Thanks for Facebook and the Asbury Revival 2023

In the Highest Name of Jesus Christ.
 Amen.

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
