Torah Class: Day 91 - Lessons in the Exodus - Camp #17-18: Rissah and Kehelathah

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 #17: Rissah (means "stopped up well"...) - Numbers 33:21

·      Why would anyone stop up a perfectly good, clean water producing well? Abraham and his family brought blessing to the land by constructing wells wherever they travelled. Abraham’s wells were known as “Wells of Salvation”.

·  Deuteronomy 32:2 – Water (rain, dew) represents Truth blessing us and bringing us into Life.

·  John 4:14 – Yahshua offered the woman at the well the Water of Life.

·  Genesis 26:15 & 18 – the Philistines stopped up Abraham’s wells, which then Isaac re-dug…  And now, Israel is back where the wells are and has to deal with them again, after having been once again stopped up.

The prophet Jeremiah warned against look for Truth outside of Yahweh’s Provision: Jeremiah 2:13

Jeremiah 16:19 – “O Yahweh, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.” 

Hosea 10:12 – “Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy…”

Psalm 63:1  “…O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is.”

Campsite #18: Kehelathah (means "the intense - impassioned - assembly"... 18 in Hebrew negatively indicates rebellion and spiritual bondage) - Numbers 33:22 

·  The revolt of Korah, Dathan and Abiram took place at Kehelathah.

Israel’s experience at Kehelathah is a shadow picture of the Synagogue of Satan – in its end-time attack against the saints.

·   Korah means “without horns”…  Horns represent power in the Bible…  Korah covets the power that he doesn’t have. He undermines the leader (Moses) seeking that role for himself…  through criticism.

·   Dathan means “cistern or spring, or fountain” in this case, he’s a broken cistern with polluted water…

·       Abiram – means “father of elevation, high, or pride”

Jeremiah 45:5  “And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil upon all flesh, saith Yahweh: but thy life will I give unto thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest.”
