Torah Class: Lessons in the Exodus - Camp #19: Mount Shapher (Shofar Mountain)

The Bible tells us that the “End (of the world) is declared from the “beginning” (Isaiah 46:10). Certainly, this means that the early Biblical record of human history bears End-time prophetic significance. But, it’s actually even more specific than that. The original Hebrew word translated as “beginning” in Isaiah 46:10 is תישאר (rê’shı̂yth). This is the root of Bereshith, which is the Hebrew name of the first Book of the Bible, “Genesis”. In other words, prophecies of the End of the World are found in the Book of Genesis.

The Torah is one of the five keys for unlocking End-time Prophecy… Prophecy is unlocked through the Statutes!

The Lessons and Tests of Israel in the Wilderness are Prophetic - for the Last Days

1 Corinthians 10:1-6 – The experiences, lessons and tests of Israel in the Wilderness are “examples” for us.

1 Corinthians 10:11 - “Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.” 

What is being worked on in each Test/Lesson is ONE THING: Shema – Love Yahweh with all your heart, soul and might

·       Deuteronomy 6:4-9  “Hear (shema: to hear intelligently, to pay attention, obey, be a witness and proclaim / live it for others to see), O Israel (those that bear the 42 letter Name): Yahweh our God is one (primary, solely God, supreme, first) Yahweh: And thou shalt love Yahweh thy God with all thine heart (emotions, innermost being), and with all thy soul (breath, will – choices), and with all thy might (strength). And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house (that’s our down-time of resting, at the end of day), and when thou walkest by the way (in the commute, travel time), and when thou liest down (when you first lay down and before you fall asleep at night), and when thou risest up (when you first wake up in the morning). And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes (we are sealed in the forehead and hand… the Shema is the Sealing). And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.”

Campsite #19: Mount Shapher (means "bright, fair, beautiful and pleasant"... Shapher is the Hebrew root word of Shofar...  Mount Shapher is Shofar Mountain) - Numbers 33:23 

· Mount Shapher is the 19th camp…  Nineteen in Hebrew means “faith”…  Faith comes by hearing – and hearing by the Word of Yahweh (connects with the Voice of the Trumpet)

·       The blast of the shophar was an instructional Voice to Israel. The shophar blast called Israel to repent and return to Yahweh after the rebellion of Kehelathah

· Shapher “the beautiful mountain” is called “Shofar Mountain” in the Septuagint…  “bright” signifies fire. The wicked are destroyed by the Brightness of His Coming… A Coming associated with Trumpets (Voice, Shouting…  the Elijah Message)

· The call of the shofar and trumpet are associated with a warning to repent while there is still time.

Meaning in the shofar blasts:

Tekiah – a pure unbroken sound – this tone called the listener to search his heart, abandon his evil ways, and seek forgiveness through repentance.

Shevarim – a broken, staccato, trembling sound – this tone typified the sorrow for sin, expressed in repentant hearts.

Teruah – a wave-like sound of alarm – a warning of coming judgment, rousing Yahweh’s people to stand loyally by the Banner (Torah) of Heaven

Tekiah Gedolah– a prolonged sound in which the trumpeter blasts till his breath is gone – this is the promise of victory and forgiveness. It looks forward to coming atonement with assurance through the Lamb. In short, this tone means, “My Grace is sufficient for thee.”

Hebrews 12:26 – In the end the whole earth will tremble and the heavens too…  The Shofar – Voice gains epic proportions in the Last Days. This is the Last Call…  There is no more time for mingled seed. There is no more time for mixing the sacred with the profane – this is a call to be 100% Yahweh’s…  no shadows… no compromises…

That’s the shema… We are being called to be ALL IN with Yahweh.

Revelation 14:3-5 – The saints have no guile, and are without fault because they are redeemed (forgiven from their past Lawlessness) and are now walking in full obedience.

The final Elijah Message is one of “How long halt ye between two opinions”? Pick your side…  You cannot have both.

This is the Everlasting Gospel – the Everlasting Gospel is the VOICE of the Trumpet

·  Revelation 14:6-7  “And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,  Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the hour of His Judgment is come: and worship Him that made Heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.”

·  The Elements of the Everlasting Gospel are – Keep Torah:

·   Fear YAH – Keep Yahweh’s Law – Deuteronomy 6:2

·   Give glory to Him – We glorify Yahweh through “good” works (which are Grace-filled thoughts, motives, and actions that are in obedience to His Torah) – Matthew 5:16 & Romans 7:12

·   The Hour of His Judgment is Come – We are judged by the Standard of the Law of Yahweh; so once again, this is an indication that we are to live in harmony with it (by Yahweh’s indwelling Power and Grace) – Romans 2:12-13

§  Romans 2:12-13  For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;  (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. 

·   Worship Him Who Made Heaven and Earth–We honor our Heavenly Creator by keeping His Sabbaths – Ex. 20:8-11.

In the Trumpet Judgments (Revelation 8-9) at the end of the world, we see Yahweh using fire and earthquake (like He did with Israel in the Wilderness) to awaken and call His people to repentance.

·  Isaiah 29:5-6 “Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly. Thou shalt be visited of Yahweh of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.”
