1-Day and Night
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.(Genesis 1:3-5 ASV)

What About Daniel 7:25 and the set times?
Daniel 7:25 And he will say words against the Most High, attempting to put an end to the saints of the Most High; and he will have the idea of changing times and law; and the saints will be given into his hands for a time and times and half a time. I believe that this prophetic Scripture speaks to us in our current time frame as well as holding multiple fulfillments in the past and future. I see fruit of the spirit of anti-messiah working effectively in the Constantinian religion that Yahweh was gracious enough to lead me out of. To the very core there is opposition to obedience…

What about Matthew 23 and calling no man rabbi?
1Then spoke Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, 2Saying The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat: 3All therefore whatever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not you after their works: for they say, and do not. 4For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 5But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, 6And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,…

What about Nehemiah 13:19-21??
Nehemiah 13:19-21 Jerusalem gate open 19And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and some of my servants set I at the gates, that there should no burden be brought in on the sabbath day. 20So the merchants and sellers of all kind of ware lodged without Jerusalem once or twice. 21Then I testified against them, and said to them, Why lodge you about the wall? if you do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time…

God Called the Light “Day”
I’ve been challenging the notion that a Biblical day is reckoned from evening to evening for a few months now. And tonight I had an “aha” moment. Genesis 1:5 simply states, “God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night”. And there was evening and there was morning — the first day.” What if the Biblical day is simply “light”, whether it be full light or mixed light as we see in both evening and morning? And the Biblical night is simply darkness, the absence of light. What if it’s not reckoned evening-to-evening or morning-to-morning but rather morning-to-evening. I wonder if the references to a literal “day” in the Bible…

This day’s date
While working on our Sukkah, I took a picture of the moon just before night set in. Isha and I are still working on setting up our calendar. We are leaning toward calling this day the 8th day of the 7th month. That is a long conversation in and of itself. For the time being, consider this the official kick-off of our new blog. I am Ish and my wife is Isha. We are not quite gentile Christians and not quite Jewish either. We are in that strange outer boundary between two worlds. That too is a long conversation. I would like to share my little project with you. We…
