Amazing Flaws in the Karaite and Talmudic Barley Calendars!

This year revealed a huge shift in barley inspections. Because the calendar is an important part of keeping the written Torah, as Yeshua HaMashiach our King and Master commanded, it is important for His people to understand the two different camps that currently exist in Israel.

This week, Norman explains the difference between the Torah model, which obeys Deuteronomy 16:9 and keeps the true firstfruits of aviv barley, (symbolic of Yeshua our Firstfruits). And the Talmud model camp, which requires breaking (or redefining) Deuteronomy 16:9, prefers manicured fields and perfect wave sheaves rather than the true firstfruits Yahweh commands, adds non-scriptural requirements such as the Equinox/Equilux, and requires the men of Israel to be in two places at once in order to keep the feasts and harvest their fields.

Norman explains the history of barley groups/individuals over the recent years. We will see what each group/individual (including Nehemiah Gordon, Devorah Gordon, Brian Convery, Yoel Halevi, and Becca Biderman) has taught in the past versus what they currently teach. We will also see that Sighted Moon (Joseph Dumond) and Nazarene Israel are the only ones still teaching the Torah model and the inviolability of Devarim (Deuteronomy) 16:9.

Mattityahu (Matthew) 16:11-12
11  “How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread?—but to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 
12  Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees [Talmud].

b. This week’s Parasha:

“Parashat Vayetze: Jacobs Ladder of Return!”

This week’s parasha focuses on Jacob’s dream of the ladder reaching from earth to heaven, and the reason why Yahweh changed Jacob’s name (and identity) from that of a trickster to that of an overcomer (Israel). It shows the need for Judah and Joseph (The Two Houses of Israel) to forsake Talmudic and Church-based identities, for personal transformation from worldly identities to divine character (2 Peter 1:4), and the need to fully submit to Yahweh.
