Moses: the Receiver of the Law

Passover, Omer, Shavuot, and Pentecost; “What do all these have in common?”  All of these are centered on the Exodus and Theme of Passover.  Passover is the positive outcome of a horrific ordeal.  It also, is rightly called the “Celebration of Freedom.”   It recalls and calls to a memorial, the liberation of a people who withstood 400+ years of brutal servitude as bondmen and bondwomen.  The forgotten and often unmentioned aspect of the timeline is that it was foretold to Abram (his name was not yet changed to Abraham), that his seed would go into bondage.  Genesis/Bereshit 15:13-14.   The above main title figure displays for us “The SHAVUOT is the culmination of the count, it is the Giving of the Law, it is Honoring the L-RD with Your First-Fruits, It is the Fiftieth Day.”

Destroying The First Ten Commandments-Tablets of Stone

The Children of Israel’s error of Idolatry shown above in Fig 2, causes Moses to destroy the first Ten Commandments.  (The Ten Commandments are also called “The Tablets of Stone”.)  The Afro-Centric Hebrew group consisted of more than 600,000 men, women and children, of which, only 14,000 of those were the original Hebrews.  Sixty-six souls joined Joseph there in Egypt; including his father Jacob/Yaakov who’s name was changed to Israel.  Joseph, Ephraim, Manasseh and wife, Asenath, as a family, were already in Egypt (Gender Troubles, 1029, pp. 41-45); (Rabbi Levi Solomon Plummer, circa 1980s).  The six-hundred-thousand, which also consisted of other neighboring countrymen including the Egyptians –who believed GD, they comprised the  “mixed multitude”.

Giving Your First-Fruits

It is important to note that the Hebrews (the Children of Israel (COI)) were not the only ones to leave Egypt within The EXODUS.  In the inclusion, were these idol worshipers, including The Egyptians who served multiple gods. They profoundly impacted the  many crucial decisions made by the Hebrews.  Israelites are still cursed with these surrounding nations the Jebusites, the Hivites, the Perizzites, the notorious Canaanites et cetera, because,  Elohim judges the Israelites by their ability to be loyal,  to be steadfast, and to be loving to Him always, no matter what the conditions or the circumstances that surrounds one’s life.  The “First-Fruits” is giving ELOHIM the first obligation of your portion and your increase.  It is “The Giving of Thanks” in honor and in gratitude for allowing you to cross over your personal hurdles, it also can be given throughout the year whenever you feel Blessed.  It is especially important when you have come into the land, any land, where you feel safe, secure and finally at home.  And it is joyously and bountifully celebrated, as the world has copied its meaning in Thanksgiving, especially in the US in the month of November.   The Hebrews were preparing for their “Meeting at the Mount of Sinai.”  Where they would be given the Law.  The Ten Commandments.  These others, journeyed along with the Hebrews to meet and to be introduced to the GD of Israel.  The above figure displays the influencers of Idolatry, although,  De Mille, says by depiction, they were the Hebrews.  They were not all Hebrews.  However, the judgment of error is attributed to the COI.

So, “Where is the Red Sea Located?”  

The Red Sea is an extension (or inlet) of the Indian Ocean, located between Africa and Asia.  Entrance to the sea in the south is through the Gulf of Aden and the somewhat narrow Bab el Mandeb (strait).

The Exodus from Egypt, was real, and ended the subjective hardship of the Children of Israel under Egyptian Rule.  Although the main figure shows people looking of Eurocentric identity, that is an inaccurate display.  So, don’t be  truly, an April Fool.  However, note that this theme is a familiar one to America’s past day of African Slavery, and the continuous less than noble mindset against people of color.  Ultimately, The Passover is about children, whose lives would have a purpose, and whose live would make a difference.  Share in the story…

Omer Countdown, Shavuot, & the Pentecost

The Omer is a count that is executed the first day of the week or the first Sunday following the first day of Passover.  This year it occurred on April 8/ 14 Abib 5781.  The year is 5781 versus 5780 because Abib/Aviv is considered, by GD, the first lunar calendar month.  It is given this distinction- due to the EXODUS of The Children of Israel out of Egypt.  This season marks a new beginning for a people who had formerly been oppressed and in servitude.   Each week thereafter, is counted as Seven Days.  While each Sunday, thereafter, begins the countdown of a new 7-Day or Week.

Shavuot (considering the transliteral spelling), is the culmination of the count.  The count of 7-Weeks and 7-Days, comes out to be 49-Days.  Shavuot is also called the Festival of Weeks or the Celebration of the Giving of the Law on Mt. Sinai – The Torah.  Pentecost literally means 50 marking the 50th – Day of the Count.  

Omer Count

If you want to follow the count, at nightfall on Thursday evening May 28, 2020, will begin day fifty,  and the erev/eve and the boker/morning were Yom Echad/Day One. This evening starts Day-50 of the count.  6 Sivan 5781.

I.  Adverb Groups: [0:28]

  • shel = of:  adverb –  (shin + lamed);  [ש  +  ל ] ;  (also used in the possessive case  ‘mine’, ‘my’ )
  • [0:28]  Shel = of  [shin  +  lamed] [ש  +  ל ]  See below pronouns in singular and in plural.
    • e.g Ha’ chover shel do‘rit– The friend of Dorit; Dorit’s friend. [0:34]
    • [0:43 – 1:05] sheli =  [ shin+ lamed + yud]   [  ש + ל + י];
      • ani sheli; atah shelakh [shin + lamed +khaf_sofit]  [ ש +ל +ך], at shelaak (same as for atah –nikud and inflection),  hu shelo [shin + lamed + vav]  [ ש + ל + ו ],   he shelah  [shin + lamed + hei]  [ ש + ל + ה]  Singular
        • anuknu shelanu  [shin + lamed  + nun + vav]  [ ש + ל + נ + ו ] ;  atem shelakhem  [shin + lamed + khaf + mem_sofit]  [ש +ל + כ + ם ],  aten shelakhen [shin + lamed + khaf + nun_sofit]  [ש +ל+ כ+ן ], hem shelahem  [shin + lamed + hei + mem-sofit [ ש + ל + ה + ם] ,  hen shelahen [shin + lamed + hei + nun_sofit]  [ ש + ל   + ה +ן] [1:08] Plural

      • [1:09]  These words always appear after the noun; the noun must be definite, as in the case above “the friend,” and preceded by Ha.

        • e.g.  *HaYeladim shelakhem… The children of… Their children *capitalized only for emphasis
        • e.g.  HaSafer she’lah…  Her book
        • e.g.  HaMachshev shelaak…  His computer

      • [1:28]  Adverbs: discussion continues.  There are several ways to form them in Hebrew.  1.  Use as an adj . w/o any change;  2.  When used as an adverb, it follows the verb.

        • e.g.  ‘tov’ = good, is an adj.  yet, the statement: ani yodea ivrit tov.  I know Hebrew well.  ‘tov is used as an adverb modifying the degree to which one knows Hebrew–“well”. [1:40]
        • e.g.  ‘mitzuyan/mitzooyan’ = excellent/great!  hen, makirot aoto_mitzuyan.  They know him extremely well.  [1:53]
        • e.g.  ‘qasheah‘ = hard/difficult.  anoknu avodim qasheah.  We work hard. [2:05]
        • e.g. ‘yashar’ = straight.  aten holikot yashar.  You go straight.  You’re walking straight. You’re going straight.  [2:19]
        • e.g. ‘tzareck’  =  things needed.  or actions required.   hu tzareck hoolzah cha’da’sha.  He needs a new shirt.  [3:54]

      • [2:31]  Adverbs: discussion continues.  There is another way to form an adverb in Hebrew. 

        Use the  letter bet[ ב ] ba: (sounds like bay) and used with a noun.  ba+noun. (It is the second-letter “b” with the nikkud/points).  (Often written as b’….)

        • e.g. ‘simcha’  = happy/joy/happiness. adv- ba’simcha = in happiness b’simcha.   hu holek levakr at_a’frat ba’simcha.  He goes to visit Efrat happily.  [2:37]

      • [2:51]  While some words, always are used- only as adverbs. 

        • e.g.  ‘yamina’ = to the right [2:58]  formed from yamin = right.  lefnot yamina.  [to] Make a right turn.  To turn right.  lefnot = to turn.  (Written also as lephnot.)
        • e.g.  ‘smola’ = to the left [3:11] or left– formed from the word smol = left.  lefnot smola.  [to] Make a left turn… to turn left.
