His Name is Jesus. Trust Him. Christian Can't Separate Christianity From The Jewish Faith. It's Passover. We Are All Passing Over From Sin Into Life. Read : Psalm 19. Adonai, Will Provide. I Too; Must Never Forget The Seder. Hallelujah!

[@beeinthebodytorahclass2002]

Yeshua (Jesus) IS the Passover Lamb. Unfortunately, Christianity has created a false Jesus who is nothing like the real Jesus and this is why most Jews cannot accept Him as Messiah. Christianity created a Greek, Torah- breaking, false Messiah that no Torah observant Jew can accept because they know that the true Messiah will only obey and teach the Commandments given to Moses. Christianity does not obey the commandments of God and this is why they observe Sunday as the Sabbath and keep pagan holidays and manmade practices like painting Easter eggs and decorating Christmas trees, and they blaspheme God by referring to the pope as holy father when ONLY GOD IS THE HOLY FATHER!! Christianity is a false religion and you need to come out of Babylon. Catholicism is the antiChrist and the devil. Jesus, whose Hebrew name is Yeshua, was and will always be a Jew, not a Gentile, a Jew who kept the Torah and only taught the Torah and did not throw out the Father's commandments. Any person who reads His words in the four Gospels knows He commands us to obey the Law of Moses. It is a commandment to keep Passover and all the Feasts of God and the Sabbath and the dietary laws. If you are Messiah's then you are Abraham's seed (Galatians 3:29) and Jesus said in John 8:39 that if you are Abraham's children you will do the works of Abraham. Genesis 26:5 says that Abraham kept ALL of God's commandments. Therefore Messiah's disciples will do the same. They will keep God's commandments. Shalom

[@gothicyid]

the egg does not reepresent the cycle of life it represents the korban chagiga or offering of birds on the alter to hashem. Also many dont use parsley and hence nothing to do with spring, we use potatoes, others use onions, it just needs to be a vegetable that grows in the ground.

[@Natalia_Belenkaya]

The eggs do too, hence eaten during a Shiva in some traditions

[@gothicyid]

@@Natalia_Belenkaya wrong. The egg we eat during the Seder represent mourning the loss of the temple. The egg on the Seder plate represents korban chaggigah. There are torah sources for these things.

[@freeto9139]

Do Stop! Your criticism is so misplaced ... It is not an either or, but inclusive. There are many Seder celebrations around the planet. They developed in various regions for various groups during the diasporic history. You do not have the 'definitive Seder'. There is no egg mentioned in the first Seder', nor does it matter if you choose parsley, or lettuce or 'whatnot' ... Not all symbolism has to line up with your choices. Get over your critical spirit, please 😟

[@gothicyid]

@@freeto9139 customs develop for different reasons but these are clearly stated in the Talmud it's not up to personal opinion it's halacha.

[@freeto9139]

@@gothicyid for some things the Talmud is right on; then there are others, where its scope is limited. Talmud is not Torah according to scripture, although it takes Torah in to account at times.

[@ledahoffman4036]

I was really enjoying this until about 14 min in when we went from the darkness to the angel of death with no mention of the most important part of passover which is why we even call it passover. No mention of the sacrificial lamb nor the blood on the door posts. I'm not one to be critical but in all honesty this is a major oversight.

Why are you mixing easter traditions with Passover?

[@shulalavy1698]

The seder is celebration of the passover. (It explains and tells the story of the passover)

[@michelledavid4065]

Just asking, so why incorporate easter having to do with the fertility god and children sacrifices? I am aware some people don't truly understand mixing of Pagan holidays with a Holy God after He told us not to practice their ways in Lev 28. Check out Truth In The Spirit Markita Brooks " for detailed understanding, not condemning. Please it's all so we can truly align with YHVH. Blessings

[@berylackermann8240]

While contemplating Passover today, I am thinking of the many worldwide who are celebrating it with "No unleavened bread", no lamb, no bitter herbs, no gathering with the saints, etc. Yet with their hearts poured out to Yahweh our Elohim, repenting, thanking Him for His forgiveness, for His abounding Mercy, Grace and Love towards us, and for sending His begotten, Firstborn Son to lay down his life to redeem us, to reconcile us to our Abba, the we may also have the priceless FREE GIFT of Eternal LIFE from our Abba Yahweh Elohim. How truly He has given us far more than we deserve, can hope for or imagine. Blessed are you our Yahweh Elohim (our Almighty, Majestic Creator of all things) and we come before you with thankfulness and gratitude and to Yeshua our Messiah. Help us to remain Faithful, to be obedient, to strengthen, guide and lead by the power of your Holy Spirit in these times that lie ahead, as we await the return of your Son. May all have a blessed Passover. Amen. 😘

Habakkuk 1:12 Art thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction. Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Daniel 3:29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. Joel 2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call. 2 Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. Matthew 11:5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. Galatians 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: Acts 9:6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do. Malachi 3:16 Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. Job 5:24 And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin. Revelation 6:8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. 1 Peter 2:25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls. 2 Corinthians 12:21 And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed. Luke 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. Jude 1:3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: Proverbs 11:1 A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight. Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Song of Solomon 8:7 Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.

I’m a Born Again Messianic Christian, and you know, the middle matzah represents the Lord Jesus Christ aka Adonai Yeshua Ha’Mashiach our Messiah. He was the one and only Messiah the both the Jews and the Gentiles. The top matzah represents God/Elohim the Father/Abba, and the bottom matzah represents God the Holy Spirit/Ruach Hakodesh. That’s why we break the middle matzah, hide it and bring it back. Yeshua took our place on the cross to die in our sins, was buried and rose again on the 3rd day. The Afikoman reminds us of Jesus aka Yeshua. Jesus aka Yeshua took the Afikoman, did the blessing for the Afikoman, broke it in two, gave to his disciples and said: “Take, eat; this is my body”. After that, he took the cup, which is the Cup of Redemption, pronounced the blessing, and gave to his disciples saying: “Drink ye all of it. For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” To all the people who are watching this, to Jews who are in this video, and to the people who made this video, you need Jesus aka Yeshua as Lord/Adonai and Savior. Jesus aka Yeshua is YOUR Messiah. Barack Obama is NOT your Messiah. Barack Obama is the one the Bible calls him, the AntiChrist aka the Antimessiah. #jewandgentileoneinyeshua #jewsneedjesus

YHVH--------- in Hebrew pictographs ... YOD=hand/arm. HEY=behold, "hey" come over here and look. VAV= nail, tent Peg, fasten, secure. HEY=behold, HEY come over here and look. Hand behold, nail behold. The crucifixion is in YHVH name! The word Torah in Hebrew pictographs backwards... HEY=behold, HEY come over here and look. RESH/ROSH= head VAV= nail, tent Peg, fasten, secure. TAV= cross, mark, covenant. Hey look the Head nailed on the cross. Proverbs 30:4 - Who has ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has bound the waters in his garment? Who has established all the ends of the eretz? What is his name, and what is his SONS'S name, if you know Aleph= א=God=Elohim=יהוה ALEPH in Hebrew. =אלפ That's three letters in one word. The gematria of the word aleph is 111 which is 3 numbers of number 1 in the word, aleph. Three in one. The aleph which stands for God has 2 yods=hands and 1 bent vav =6 the number of man. also =nail, tent Peg, fasten, secure. So you can say that in the name of Elohim is a man with teffilin on His head bent over humbled and reaching out his two hands to pull Heaven and Earth together in himself the mashiac ben David... Jesus/Yahshua... Connecting, fastening, them to HIMSELF! And of course that Aleph equals 26 the number of Elohim himself... Elohim is a PLURAL word! Not singular. The Aleph as said before had 2 Yods and 1 bent Vav that is another 3 in 1...! Also the Paleo ancient Hebrew Aleph has three lines that make up 1 Aleph, three in one once again! The Maschiac was already here once and he will come back again. That's why you have the two Heys in יהוה NAME for the two comings of HIM! Hey= behold, look over here at something important! And there's SO much more!
