PURIM And Man Made-up Holy Days
Mark 7:6-9, 13, 16 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Isaiah prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
For laying aside the commandment of Yahuah God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of Yah God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
Making the word of Yah God of no effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
Purim celebrates Hebrew Esther's victory over anti-Semitic Haman.
Purim is NOT a Sabbath and is NOT a High Holy Day!
It has become known in modern Israel as Jewish Holloween because Jewish children are encouraged to dress in costumes and mock Haymen. They beg gifts in candy and money and do many of the similar customs of Catholic Halloween.
PURIM, the Feast of Esther and the Festival Of Lots, is not a YAHUAH-established, YAHUAH-ordained Feast / Festival.
PURIM is not mentioned in Tanakh, the Hebrew's Holy Scriptures (The Old Testament, in Christian Bibles), and it is not even mentioned in the historical Book Of Esther.
For, following Shemini Atzeret in early fall, the next Holy Day on YAHUAH’s calendar is the next Passover, six months later, in the following spring, a month after PURIM.
This means that both Simchat Torah and Hanukkah (Chanukah), along with PURIM, are NOT Scriptural holy days, they are not YAHUAH-established, and they are not YAHUAH-ordained.
PURIM is a later-established celebration to commemorate a feast and subsequent victorious events recorded in The Book Of Esther. Since PURIM could fall on any day of the week, other than when on Saturday (a routine, weekly, Sabbath) there is no special, YAHUAH-ordained "Holy-Day" or Sabbath on PURIM because PURIM is a tradition-based celebration instituted by men, not by YAHUAH.
The three High Holy Days established by YAHUAH are:
1 - The first day of the Feast Of Unleavened Bread (Chag Ha Matzoh) - 15 Abiv - The day after The Passover.
2 - Pentecost (Shavu'ot) - On a Sunday, very late in spring, fifty days from the first Sunday following (after) The Passover.
3 - The first day of the Feast Of Tabernacles (Sukk'ot) - 15th day of the 7th Month - Five days after Yom Kippur
These three YAHUAH-ordained High Holy Days are Annual High Sabbaths, "Pilgrimage" Sabbaths.
Along with the Leviticus 23 High Sabbaths, 7 Feasts and or what the King James version calls holy convocations are also included 3 Firstfruits offerings.
Barley the 3rd day at sundown from start of Passover, the first cutting of section of barley at sundown was made. It corresponded with the third day resurrection of Messiah.
On Pentecost, Wheat offering was made to represent those saved and filled with the Roauch Ha Kodesh or Holy Spirit.
The last day of Tabernacles the Firstfruits of fruit trees and vines like grapes.
Exodus 23:17
Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the Lord GOD.
Deuteronomy 16:16
Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before YAHUAH thy God in the place which he shall choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before YAHUAH empty:
This is the firstfruits offerings.
On YAHUAH’S Calendar, there are no OTHER High Holy Days!
The 7 appointed seasons are
Passover - Sin Sacrifice of the Lamb
Unleavened bread - Remove sin from mankind, Messiah arose on the 3rd day from Passover when he was killed.
Pentecost - The Roach Ha Kodesh came.
Book of Acts.
Trumpets - Messiah returns with the last trump and a shout from the saved.
1 Corinthians 15:51-54 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Revelation 20:5
But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Atonement - The seal of the annual blood sprinkled on the Arc. This represents the Wedding Feast of the Lamb and 1 Corinthians 15:52 The Kingscand Priests in robes of white ruling 1000 years with Messiah.
Revelation 20:4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Yahshua, and for the word of Yah God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Messiah a thousand years.
Revelation 20:6
Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of Yah God and of Messiah, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Tabernacles - The New Jerusalem comes to a renewed earth after the 1000 years.
Revelation 20:5
But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
The Last Great Day - Judgment Day.
Second Resurrection of all.
Revelation 20:2-3, 7-15 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from YAH God out of heaven, and devoured them.
And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before YAHUAH God; and the BOOKS were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Malachi 3:16-18 Then they that feared YAHUAH spake often one to another: and YAHUAH hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared YAHUAH, and that thought upon his name.
And they shall be mine, saith YAHUAH of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth YAH God and him that serveth him not.
THEN ETERNITY BEGINS:
Revelation 21:1-10 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and Yah himself shall be with them, and be their Yah.
And Yah God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his Yah God, and he shall be my son.
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.
And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from Yah Almighty God,
John 3:14-21 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in Yah God.
There are no other holidays, seasons, times or Sabbaths other than those commissioned by YAHUAH ALMIGHTY.
All others were added by men as vain worship:
Deuteronomy 8:19
And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the ALMIGHTY YAHUAH thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
