 Passover in Jerusalem

How This Passover Was Different From All Others. The Events people witnessed, leaving the world completely changed. The nitty gritty so often over looked.


Numbers 15


15 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land you are to inhabit, which I am giving you, 3 and you offer to the Lord from the herd or from the flock a food offering or a burnt offering or a sacrifice, to fulfill a vow or as a freewill offering or at your appointed feasts, to make a pleasing aroma to the Lord, 4 then he who brings his offering shall offer to the Lord a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with a quarter of a hin of oil; 5 and you shall offer with the burnt offering, or for the sacrifice, a quarter of a hin of wine for the drink offering for each lamb. 6 Or for a ram, you shall offer for a grain offering two tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a third of a hin of oil. 7 And for the drink offering you shall offer a third of a hin of wine, a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 8 And when you offer a bull as a burnt offering or sacrifice, to fulfill a vow or for peace offerings to the Lord, 9 then one shall offer with the bull a grain offering of three tenths of an ephah of fine flour, mixed with half a hin of oil. 10 And you shall offer for the drink offering half a hin of wine, as a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

11 “Thus it shall be done for each bull or ram, or for each lamb or young goat. 12 As many as you offer, so shall you do with each one, as many as there are. 13 Every native Israelite shall do these things in this way, in offering a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 14 And if a stranger is sojourning with you, or anyone is living permanently among you, and he wishes to offer a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord, he shall do as you do. 15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you, a statute forever throughout your generations. You and the sojourner shall be alike before the Lord. 16 One law and one rule shall be for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you.”

17 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 18 “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land to which I bring you 19 and when you eat of the bread of the land, you shall present a contribution to the Lord. 20 Of the first of your dough you shall present a loaf as a contribution; like a contribution from the threshing floor, so shall you present it. 21 Some of the first of your dough you shall give to the Lord as a contribution throughout your generations.


22 “But if you sin unintentionally, and do not observe all these commandments that the Lord has spoken to Moses, 23 all that the Lord has commanded you by Moses, from the day that the Lord gave commandment, and onward throughout your generations, 24 then if it was done unintentionally without the knowledge of the congregation, all the congregation shall offer one bull from the herd for a burnt offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord, with its grain offering and its drink offering, according to the rule, and one male goat for a sin offering. 25 And the priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the people of Israel, and they shall be forgiven, because it was a mistake, and they have brought their offering, a food offering to the Lord, and their sin offering before the Lord for their mistake. 26 And all the congregation of the people of Israel shall be forgiven, and the stranger who sojourns among them, because the whole population was involved in the mistake.

27 “If one person sins unintentionally, he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering. 28 And the priest shall make atonement before the Lord for the person who makes a mistake, when he sins unintentionally, to make atonement for him, and he shall be forgiven. 29 You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the people of Israel and for the stranger who sojourns among them. 30 But the person who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native or a sojourner, reviles the Lord, and that person shall be cut off from among his people. 31 Because he has despised the word of the Lord and has broken his commandment, that person shall be utterly cut off; his iniquity shall be on him.”


32 While the people of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. 33 And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation. 34 They put him in custody, because it had not been made clear what should be done to him. 35 And the Lord said to Moses, “The man shall be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp.” 36 And all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death with stones, as the Lord commanded Moses.


37 The Lord said to Moses, 38 “Speak to the people of Israel, and tell them to make tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a cord of blue on the tassel of each corner. 39 And it shall be a tassel for you to look at and remember all the commandments of the Lord, to do them, not to follow[spy out] after your own heart and your own eyes, which you are inclined to whore after. 40 So you shall remember and do all my commandments, and be holy to your God. 41 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God: I am the Lord your God.”






Linen was worn frequently in the Bible and makes fringe easily.









 Chapter 18 of John's Gospel.
13 First they led him to Annas, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. 14 It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people.

28 Then they led Jesus from the house of Caiaphas to the governor's headquarters.





The house of Caiaphas and his ossuary.



Passover was a huge event. Surely Annas, Caiaphas Nicodemus and plenty of others really looked forward to Passover each year. How was that Passover for Caiaphas and Annas? Pesky Jesus Christ Lord had been disposed of. The Roman Empire would continue to turn without a bump. Except in a mere sixteen years, people would begin to be put to death for proclaiming a mere carpenter's son as the Messiah, Son of GOD.


It would very much appear that the grave did not hold Jesus and His Name would be proclaimed for many years, secretly, with many changed lives, until Constantine would appease the growing number of Christians to allow Christianity to be the Religion of the Roman Empire.



Catacombs are the billboards of yesterday. Christian Art has been discovered only in recent decades. What an amazing time we live in. I grew up thinking Pontius Pilate was a myth. And the census of Augustus driving Joseph to bring Mary to give birth to Jesus Christ in Bethlehem is now discovered.

The Catacombs have major art. They are now famous for Christian burials begining in the 2nd century. The white tombstone is the Funerary stele of Licinia Amias, one of the most ancient Christian inscriptions. Upper tier: dedication to the Dis Manibus and Christian motto in Greek letters ΙΧΘΥC ΖΩΝΤΩΝ / Ikhthus zōntōn ("fish of the living"). The other art is Jesus as Shepherd and the Eucharist. Peter's home in Capernaum was covered with praise inscriptions as well.

Why was this such a time of great change? Only a carpenter's son was condemned after Pontius Pilate declared him to be innocent. We know from written history, other political zealots had declared themselves to be the Messiah of God.



Jesus was unusual for the lame walking, the blind seeing, the deaf hear and the poor had good news preached to them.

Rome, first to third century, Foreigner's Area. Where Peter lived and was buried. Now 80 feet belown the Vatican.








And so, more than likely, Annas and Caiphas were ready to jump back into the swing of things as business as usual. My husband, likes, without theological background or seminary, to call this the Zombie Passover. And the painter James Tissot would agree. Actually, this would have caused me a very great upset to see. The Disciple John, the beloved disciple, believed he had seen evil and that Good Friday, day, changed him and his writings more than the other disciples who had hidden.








Passover was not the joy they had known - instead they had major looming problems.

Matthew 27:51-54
At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split 52 and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. 53 They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and e went into the holy city and appeared to many people.

54 When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, “Surely he was the Son of God!”





Bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life, Painted by James Tissot

And the graves were opened - "Graves" or sepulchres were most commonly made, among the Jews, in solid rocks or in caves of rocks. The rending of the rocks, therefore, would lay them open. The graves were opened by this earthquake, but the dead in them did not rise until after his resurrection.

So what did the Temple government look like upon The death of Jesus Christ the LORD and His Resurrection?




Today in Jerusalem, this is a model of the 2nd Temple with a close-up of Solomon's Porch.





Acts 5:12-16 ~ American Standard Version

And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch. But of the rest durst no man join himself to them: howbeit the people magnified them; and believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of them and women; insomuch that they even carried out the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that, as Peter came by, at the least his shadow might overshadow some one of them. And there also came together the multitudes from the cities round about Jerusalem, bring sick folk, and them that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

Quite a change. From hiding behind locked doors, the disciples are preaching Jesus Christ the Savior in the 36 acres of the Temple Court.

John 20:19-20
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.

The Pharisees are having a bad week. Jesus didn't just disappear, instead multitudes have come... not to the Sea of Galilee, or the wilderness, but to the Temple to hear more about Jesus. Those miracles and signs haven't stopped either. Some of the Sanhedrin, the ruling council for the Temple, want to go over and hear too.

Ian Wilson's book, "The Historical Jesus" tells of a letter from the first century Anno Domino. This famous letter - Rabbi Lyracathra, of Lystra, Israel, writes he cannot keep the Jews from being interested in the multitudes of healings done in Jesus' name, after the man has died. He wonders how Judiasm will continue when these signs cannot be contained.

Thanks be to God. Thank You for Your steadfast love and Your miracles You give us in the highest name of Jesus Christ. Amen.



When did the Sacrifices stop? Remember as Jesus Christ died on the cross He said Forgive them. It is God's nature to be forgiving, and not to accept injustice. In 70 A.D., the time of Jesus' natural life span, Jerusalem was destroyed.

Luke 19:44
and tear you down to the ground, you and your children within you. And they will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know the time of your visitation.



We So Very Often hear Jesus did not die. He rose from the dead and when we go to Heaven we will receive His promises. The faithful hear the same Easter message. And a lot of times think about what the child's Easter basket or the grandchild's Easter basket will look like. We've reached the point that we are like the people in World War II.  We are bombarded by the world and life has sped up. With Easter being important, but the message fails to touch our hearts. Life demands so many things from us, in so many fast, moving directions.

The Truth is our world is shaped today by the work Jesus did. In dying, according to Mayo Clinic doctors, of a broken heart brought about by the extreme agony of the beating, the mocking, the desertion. One of the miracles of the cross, we overlook, is God helped Jesus die quickly on the cross. 

We forget the agony of a Father for His good son. His beloved Son. The earthquake. The darkness. 

And we remember Easter lilies and colored eggs. 

The world is shaped today from Jesus Christ. Who was there in the beginning of time, according to God's Word; He shouted with joy at creation. Knowing He would experience these things, chose to wade into the fray. 

I had an Easter table discussion as to why so many Easter sermons are so uninspiring.  From people all over Texas, we sat and thought about worship. Worship is uninspiring because we fail Him. One more thing to feel guilty about. Worship is uninspiring because we expect something from HIM like emotional support. And fail to realize we are called to do some digging to find our gratitude to give Him.

We expect our worship to be always pleasing to us and not a gift to give the Father.

Worship is uninspiring because we are given the message preached over and over again. The major points are thumped and we miss the sweetness and preciousness of the love. We fail to do our own work to be impressed by the wonders that exist. And we overlook because they are messy or unbelievable.  

Basically, we should show up to worship because He is the center of our lives. Our eternal lives. When we show up to worship Him to do the work, a miracle occurs, so unseen its overlooked. We think, "Okay I went," but actually, we are fed.  When you are desperately hungry,  it's hard to see that a small portion of HIM has helped. Sometimes it takes others seeing in you, that you have been fed.











 

Jesus also said something important as the Lord our God. And this reaches through the millenniums to influence our Easter week of 2013.



Matthew 16:16-18

Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.t







A Huge Thanks to the Radio Programmers of America. The television does not have many Easter programs. Sometimes its even tough to find some the best done Disney films. We need some more Christian Disney Films.  But traveling across Texas (we missed Easter at our Church), the radio stations were filled with the American Freedom of Religion and  Free Speech proclaiming the Good News. Even the secular stations on the FM dial had all different types of people proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord.

If you are called upon to give Testimony to Jesus. Try not to repeat the same old message. Most people have the basic message. You have to go deeper than who Jesus is. It's like going beyond hello and how are you. People want to know the deep down way Jesus is loved by you and why.


I've given my "how I came to believe" story many times. I have to say what's relevant today to me, is the mercy of the LORD. When I am not as I should be, He does not walk away. Believing in me, encouraging me. I see the signs around me - the people who have tears of joy of pregnancies prayed for by people trying to help, and His mercy reaches out with a miracle. By our 93 year old friend, who has fully recovered, to be bright eyed and interested in those around him. The brightness of those eyes. In his wife, who fought the hospital  system and still had the energy to give to those around her. In Rusty, told his brain tumor was fatal and found a message from MD Anderson of clear and stable. In the cancer of the 9-month-old, her family prays hard, and she had surgery to find she is healing. Our neighbor down the street, sending out an email blast, two of her loved ones have a diagnosis of bi-polar but by seeking treatment, learning how much He loves them, they are on the right path for quite some time now.


Jesus Christ shapes the world. Then and now. The purpose of life is to grow up and go Home. We all have an invitation to leave this planet. There just happens to be someone who loves You and wants you there for eternity. The great mystery of life is this - this message - called the Gospel - is the Truth. 


If you look at the Gospel of the disciple who "walked along the road" with Him, you see this:

1 John 4:8b
God is love.

1 John 4:16
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.

Romans 10:9
If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Acts 2:24
But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.

John 6:16-24 ~ He said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.”

 

Jesus of Nazareth; "Don't be afraid. I am with you every day to the end of time."




John 6:16-24


16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake, 17 where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them. 18 A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough. 


Rough water behind Jesus
Both Photos have the Rough Water behind Jesus
Jesus is the Light of the world




19 When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened. 

20 But He said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.” 



21 Then they were willing to take him into the boat, 
and 
immediately 
the boat reached the shore where they were heading.





22 The next day the crowd that had stayed on the opposite shore of the lake realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not entered it with his disciples, but that they had gone away alone. 23 Then some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. 

24 Once the crowd realized that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum in search of Jesus.





We are told as it is written:

John 9:4
"We must work the works of Him who sent Me as long as it is day; night is coming when no one can work."

John 11:10
It is when a person walks at night that they stumble, for they have no light.

We can learn about THE WORD OF GOD made manifest - Jesus our Lord - from what is written.

1. Psalm 139 tells us that nothing is dark to God. He is Light. He is not going to stumble because He is God.

2. I like this message the best - walking on water - at night - was not "work" to Jesus. This was Joy!

3. John 17 13
“I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy within them."

This point is wonderful. Jesus abides in God - His fruitfulness is Joy.

















Can you see the disciples talking in that boat...

"Simon, Simon says hoist up that sail." (Simon the Zeolot and Peter Simon - c'mon you always wondered where the game 'Simon Says'  originated right...)

"Ok, I DID, the wind is really picking up."

John says, "Did you see the way our Teacher fed five thousand people!" The men talk about the wonder of God. Matthew adds, "Well, it's clear we are going to have to have another Party for Jesus!" The men look at Matthew. "And this time - we let Jesus cater the Party!"

Thomas says, "I really admired Jesus today. He fed and healed so many. Jesus put His amazing hands into the bread and even the fish to provide. Jesus puts his Hands out and does whatever is needed for God's people."

The men are silent. It was another amazing day with God.




Thomas cries out, "What is THAT? What am I seeing?"

Then they began to discuss among themselves who was the greatest to see this, Jesus' disciples said,"Now speak clearly and without figures of speech!"

They then had a rapid discussion - how to pray.

James and John cry out, "What would stand like that - there? How is it placed there?"

Andrew cries for Peter to come and look. Andrew yells out, "I think this is the Messiah!"

They cry out together, "This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?"

Thomas said to his fellow disciples, "Let's go to Jesus that we may ... too, so that we may die with Him."

Philip answered him, “It would take more than half a year’s wages to get someone to explain this if you were not here to see this yourself."

Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, spoke up, "How far would this story go among so many?"

They all started talking at once and said to each other, "What must we do to do the works God requires?”



Today, we see when the Disciples see how fully Jesus is God, John 6 reports they were very afraid.

And then we see the people want God to serve them and they show up immediately. 


Jesus reveals hearts. 



Abba, Father God, 

Let me each day ask to let me be a good place for You to dwell
Help me to seek You First.
And pray for those I love to seek You First.


We are in Lent.
Search my heart and mind, discerning the thoughts and intentions of my heart.
Help my heart of flesh - please You.
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.

How will we please Father God during Lent.
Pray and speak with God more
Add more Life into Joy of what God has Given.
Refrain from something pleasing to God.
Give to His Beloved and Good Creation.

When we try to please You, Father God,
You are pleased.

We are given this life as a gift.
This earth is temporary.
Life Forever is Jesus gift to us for Eternity.


I will ask you to help me Trust in You with all my heart, 
and not leaning on my understanding. 
I will acknowledge Your Ways, and You will make straight our paths.

Keep my heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.


Place your spirit within us, and in Your name, we will be pure in heart 
and we shall see God.

We ask this for ourselves, our Loved Ones 
and our Nation. 
The Creation God calls good - the whole earth.
In the Highest Name of Jesus. Amen.






Ephesians 3:16-19 
That according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power 
through His Spirit in your inner being, 
so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith
—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 
may have strength to comprehend 
with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ 
that surpasses knowledge, 
that you may be filled 
with all the fullness of God.

Psalm 117 ~ Praise the Lord

 





Psalm 117


Praise the Lord, all nations!
Extol him, all peoples!
2 For great is his steadfast love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.
Praise the Lord!


Psalm 117 is the shortest chapter in the bible. Condensed, this is the nature of the Lord Most High. He is for everyone. He is worthy to be praised.

He isn't about Black-eyed Peas, don't step on a crack, wear a little bracelet with knots tied in it so many days, pray in this exact fashion, eat this diet, or wear your hair like this.

He does not ask you to sit up straight. He does not ask you to refrain from alcohol. He does not ask you not to dance. He does not ask you not to chew gum. He is not partial to one skin type or one color. He is not partial to one class over another. He does not say cleanliness is next to Him. He does not say that if you pay attention to Him at least once a week, He is pleased. He does not ask you to seek wealth. He is more fond of wisdom and kindness.

Father God seeks you. Father God does not expect you to save yourself. He doesn't just put you off until eternity, He is part of this life. He wants your love and trust. He is for you. He chose to create you. He is about love, wisdom, loyalty, forgiveness and eternity. 

He loves you.






 


Employment worries, water boil ban and shortages. Totally freezing without power. Some death tolls count up to 70 with stress related cold deaths. Many with water damage from frozen pipes. Lack of plumbers available. Grocery supplies down, some bare shelves. Milk, meat, bread and some prepared foods will arrive again.

 Not any looting. 
Thank God for His Blessings.
God Bless Texas
May all the USA have these Blessings.

Abba, Father God,

We ask You Place Your Grace on all of Us.

In Jesus Christ we place our Hope. Amen.





3 John 1:2

Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you 
and you may be in good health,
as it goes well with your soul


John 13:34

Jesus gives His Disciples 
a New Commandment
To Love One Another 
as He has Loved Us.
















 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. 
My love be with you all in Christ Jesus.  
Amen.
