Teveth

In the North Terranian Hemisphere Teveth is the darkest month of the Hebrew Year but it is far from quiet. There are events on the 1st, 2nd, 6th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 17th/Tekufat-Teveth/Nitlnacht, 18th-25th/Kalenda/Nitlkatan and 29th/Nitlgadol.

Teveth begins with the last days of Hanukkah on the 1st and 2nd. After the celebrations of Hanukkah we enter the darkest time of the year, the Tekufat of Teveth, which used to last 18 days from the 3rd to the 20th inclusive followed by the 8 days of Kalenda (Nitl Katan) finally the day of Nitl Gadol. But Messianic Noahide celebrations on the 6th and 8th shortened it so that it began on the 9th and from 1582 the 8th Day of Kalenda became Dec 25th followed by 10 days of limbo before Nitl Gadol (29th Teveth). 

Tekufat Tevet is associated with Nitlnacht, Saturnalia and Antinomianism among Luciferians but associated with fasting among believers. Fasting lasts through Nitlnacht until the start of Kalenda (Nitlkatan) on the 18th. Nitlgadol lasts 1 day and used to be immediately after Kalenda but is now separated from the 8th Day of Nitlkatan by several days due to the Gregorian Calendar reform of 1582.

The Tekufat Tevet Fasts are the origin of Ramadan as proven by the Chronology of Prophetic Events by Fazlur Sheik as well as the origin of the Nativity Fast of Advent. 

This darkest time of the North Terranian Year symbolises Haadam's hopelessness after first arrival on earth when he thought that the shortening nights heralded the end was nigh. Hence Luciferian Gnostics indulge in Antinomianism and Saturnalia as a way of cursing creation which they deem to be inadequate and spit upon. 

First of all there is the fast of the 9th of Teveth. 

The 9th of Teveth is the yahrzeit for Saint Rabbi Simeon Colpas, the Compiling Editor of the NT and founder of the Bei Abedan Yeshiva and is for remembering his martyrdom. Saint Rabbi Simeon Colpas was originally highly esteemed by Herod Agrippa II and Gamaliel II's Council of Jamnia (80–115) but was martyred after Herod Agrippa II had died and been succeeded by Tiberius Claudius Atticus Herodes (erroneously identified as Herod Agrippa II's son). Saint Rabbi Simeon Colpas was martyred during a time of persecution under the emperor Trajan (Ecclesiastical History 3:32). One intent of this persecution, which began with an order by Domitian, was to eliminate all Jews of the Davidic line, which would have included the "Desposyni" among the Jewish kindred of Jesus Christ following the suggestion of the proconsul Tiberius Claudius Atticus Herodes in the vicinity of Jerusalem having disobeyed the order of Herodes not to go to Ai to find a diplomatic solution. Saint Rabbi Simeon Colpas went in secret but was betrayed by two courtiers who accompanied him being cast down from the Mount of Olives on the way to Ai. His body was taken to Herodes who was delighted by the murder. Herodes did not allow the body of Saint Rabbi Simeon Colpas to be removed from the palace until Herodes himself died, whereupon the Sanhedrin established the date of his martyrdom as a fast day. 

After the fast of the 9th we have the fast of the 10th for 8 days (10th to 17th of Tevet inclusive). This is the fast of Adam Kadmon to resist the Saturnalian ways of the Gentiles. 

The last nights of the Tekufat Teveth Fast (originally one of the three darkest days in the winter solstice) are a time for the Apostate Notzrim of Northern Israel who have secretly done things against the L-rd. It is at this time of the year that the demonic Yosl Pondrik spirit seeks to turn humans towards sexual Immorality. This spirit is named after a stepbrother of Jesus called Joses Pandera who in Judaic tradition raped a disciple of Jesus called Magdalena who named her illegitimate offspring after her teacher causing all manner of chaos. Hence seasonal ghost stories (Christmas Carol, Gremlins, Krampus) are appropriate for the time while sexual activity among believers also ceases at this time to deprive Yosl Pondrik of hosts through whom he can sire his children. 

Yosl Pondrik's Offspring

For Messianic Noahides, it is the best time to try and convert Yosl Pondrik's Offspring to faith in God's Word and according to Judaic tradition it is at this time of the year that the Evangelion (New Testament) was first compiled by Rabbi Simeon Colpas in order to do just that. After all, it is out of faithless Edom that righteous Thyatira's offspring were redeemed to rule the world with an Iron Rod and even conquer the armies of Gogmagog. Rabbi Simeon Colpas conquered the Notzrim with God's Word when he used miracles to introduce his Evangelion to them on the First Day of Kalenda in the Jewish year 3849 (88/89AD).

The conquered personifications of Tekufat Tevet therefore carry chains as depicted in the stories of Krampus and Jacob Marley as a warning to others who have not embraced the Gospel. 

Food eaten during Tekufat Tevet should be layden with Garlic to ward off various evils associated with the season. 

Natal Night

The last and darkest night of Tekufat Tevet is also known as Blind night or Murderous night but also Natal night because it was the night when the mother of Jesus went into labour. It is traditional not to visit the study house on Natal Night.

Tekufat Tevet ends at Midnight where a candle is lit to study a passage of Torah symbolising the victory of light over darkness before retiring to bed.

Kalenda (Nitl Katan)

This year, Christmas invites you to join in the

2025th NATIVITY ANNIVERSARY

Let Christ be born in us anew! 

When the frosty wind howls down the chimney and drives tiny deerhorn-like snowflakes across the rooftops in the North, Christmas will come again towards the Messianic New Year personifying death and rebirth and the Alpha and Omega, for the Old Year hands over authority to the New Year represented as the Baby Jesus by St Francis but in the middleages as Boy Bishops and by Mary, the Christkind who delivers the word, by Martin Luther. 

Good Old Christmas also became known as Old Father Christmas from 1658 earning it Epithets like Grandfather Frost and Kal Gaxan. 

The personifications are well known, but what is Christmas? 

Christmas is Kalenda (Nitl Katan) and literally means "Christ's Mission". 

And what is Christ's Mission? 

Christ's Mission is a Story, Christ's Engeel (the Christingle symbolised by the Christcandle) the blood-red-robed and mitred Saint Mikölas (i.e. Michael not Nicolas with whom he came to be identified), riding his white cavalry BenThyatira on the clouds revealing and Establishing the Rule of God's Inconquerable Logos in the Human Heart to liberate us from the deathly freezing power of darkness and bringing joy to all the oppressed. 

BenThyatira & Christ's Engeel

When it is time for Noahides to swap HaAdam's Nittel fast for Adam's Kalenda celebration, the faithful remnant of Pharisees still describe the influence of Tekufat Tevet through the life of the Talui and recount how this influence was broken by the disciples of Jesus because Christmas is the effort of the disciples of Jesus and without the effort of his disciples there is no Christmas.

Christmas Eve, on the 7th day of Christmas (7th day of Kalenda)... 

As already mentioned, the darkest night Vigil ends at 00:00:00am on the 18th of Teveth and the hiatus on studying Torah ends at midnight with the beginning of the 8 day Kaleyd (Yiddish for the Talmudic Kalenda i.e. Christmas) celebration established by Adam Kadmon to celebrate the lengthening of days now called Nittel Gadol. The protective covers are removed and a Mitzva is observed to begin each new season like Kalenda with a fresh supply of sweet water, as brought down by the 10th century Hai Gaon. 

But it is Christmas Eve the 7th day of Kalenda which is the correct day for Jews to give non-Jewish friends presents to separate ourselves from any Gentile activities around the New Year season.

This Halakhah about when to give presents during Kaleyd was recorded by Israel Isserlein (1390-1460) in Austria mentioned in the Terumas HaDeshen [Siman 195. :

שו"ת תרומות הדשן (סי' קצה')

Responsa of the Terumat haDeshen 195

שאלה: בכמה עיירות נוהגים היהודים לשלוח דורונות לכומרים ולשלטונים ביום שמיני לניתל כשמתחדשין להם השנה, יש

חשש זהירות בדבר או לאו?

Question: In many cities it is the custom for Jews to send gifts to priests and nobles on the Eighth Day of Nittel when they begin their New Year. Should we be concerned about the danger of this or not?

תשובה: יראה דיש ליזהר בזה שלא ישלחו ממש באותו יום אלא יום קודם או אחריו...

Answer: It appears that we should be careful regarding this practice not to send it on the actual day of the festival (lest they think we are celebrating) but rather on a day before {Christmas Eve} or after {Boxing Day}.

The correct Hilchos is for Jews to send gifts to non-Jews on the eve of their New Year (ie the 7th day of Kalenda) or the (Boxing) day after rather than the 8th Day (Christmas Day) itself. 

In the 1400s when Israel was writing, there had been no Georgian calendar reformation and the 28th of Teveth was New Year's Day but it became the 4th of January after the counter-reformation calendar and was gradually replaced by the 25th of December. Interestingly this responsum along with several others on the topic of dealing with apostates and Gentiles was apparently omitted from the original Terumas HaDeshen out of fear of the censor. The responsa were printed at the end of the sefer in certain editions. 

In accordance with his ruling the Rema [Shulchan Arukh, Yoreh De'ah 148:12] writes in the mid 1500s: “If a person wishes to send a gift to a gentile on the eighth day of Nittel which they call New Year when they view it as a good omen if they receive a gift — he should send it the night before. (The words in italics were censored from later editions.)

Nittel Katan & Nittel Gadol

Thus there were two periods of Christmas which Jews called Nittel Katan and Nittel Gadol. These two periods were the 8 days of Kalenda itself and the following Jewish Gifting day when the Jews and Kings gave gifts on Boxingday, after all religious obligations had been fulfilled for Christmas. The 7th day of Kalenda (Nittel Katan) was when Noahides gave gifts on Christmas Eve. The 8th Day of Nittel Katan was not supposed to be a day of gifting but of Tikkun Olam Mitzvot. 

When the Calendar reform of 1582 took place, the Orthodox  and Protestants who were not under the influence of the Vatican were 10 days later than Catholics in celebrating Christmas and Boxing day causing a change in how Jews observed Nitl. Noahides had to adapt quickly and began to celebrate Nittel Katan on Christmas Eve while Jews and non-Catholic Royal Families held out longer passing presents out on what had become the 12th day of Christmas (the Gregorian 5th of January) rather than 25th of December. 

25 New Christmas (Nitl Katan 8),

31 Old Jewish Gifting Day,

02 Old Nittle Gadol,

05 New Nitl Gadol. 

Both nights came to be considered equivalent to each other and what became January 5th came to be considered equivalent to the Feast of Stephen resulting in the idea of 12 nights then days of Christmas rather than the original 2. 

29th Teveth (Nitl Gadol)

Meanwhile, Kalenda is associated with the Gregorian 24th of December 1BC which corresponded to the Hebrew Calendar date 29th of Teveth 3760 while earlier in that same Gregorian year, the Julian 5th of January 2BC corresponded to the 29th of Teveth 3759. So the significance of Christmas Eve and 12th night has even earlier roots. 

All of this resulted in a makhlokhes. over the correct timing of Nittel observance among Perushim. In the end, Christmas Eve became recognized as Nittel Katan while the 12th Night "Feast of Stephen" remained Nittel Gadol making 12 days of Nittel from Dec 25th to Jan 5th followed by Epiphany season which begins on the 6th of January. 

But in 1901 the Julian Calendar had slipped by 2 days causing many formerly Julian countries to adopt the Gregorian Calendar in the 20th century and in recent decades, the significance of Nittel Gadol has diminished everywhere outside of the sphere of Russian Influence. While among certain Anapabtists, the 12th days of Christmas still remain significant as a lasting testimony to resisting the Gregorian Calendar reform. It is likely that the observance of 12 days of Nittel will eventually vanish if the remaining Orthodox Churches abandon the Julian Calendar in favour of the Gregorian.

Teveth is followed by the Epiphany (1 Shevat) New Year for Trees. 

It seems appropriate at this point to mention even more sources from Orthodox Judsism which are relevant to The Way of the Messianic Hebrews originating among the Chazal of the Shimon ben Shetach Yeshiva following both Talmuds and

the Teliya of Yochanan ben Zakkai (c.20-c.100). 

We should also consider the Christology of Aqiba (c.50-c.135) who has never been disregarded for having temporarily mistaken Bar Kokhba for the Sar HaPanim. His student Rabbi Simeon bar Yochai who said "There is a perfect man, who is an messenger, this messenger is Metatron, the keeper of Israel; he is a man in the image of the Holy One, blessed be He, who is an emanation from Him; yea, He is HaShem; of him cannot be said, He is created, formed or made; but he is the emanation from G-d. This agrees with what was written in Jeremiah 23:5-6 of the sprout from David, that though he shall be a perfect man, yet he is ‘the Lord our Righteousness’ " in The Propositions of the Zohar.cap 38, Amsterdam Edition.

We should also consider the Piyyutim of Eleazer ben Kalir (570 – c. 640) which mention Sar HaPanim and the preexistence of our righteous Messiah. 

Here I provide a list of some of the Scribes and Pharisees who made comments relevant to Messianic Noahides:

The Pirqoi ben Baboi (8th–9thC.). 

Rabbeinu Bahiya (1050–1120); 

Rashi (1040 – 13 July 1105); 

the Tosafists 

{like Simhah ben Samuel of Vitry (d. 1105); 

Rabbeinu Tam (1100 – 9 June 1171); 

Yechiel of Paris (died c. 1268); 

Moses ben Jacob of Coucy (fl.1240s); 

Judah of Melun (fl.1240s); 

Samuel ben Solomon of Falaise (fl.1240s)}; 

the Hassidei Ashkenaz 

{such as Judah ben Samuel of Regensburg (1150 – 1217); 

and other Rishonim 

{like Nachmanides (1194–1270); 

the Meiri (1249–1316); 

Rabbeinu Yerucham (1290–1350); 

and Ibn Shaprut (born c.1350)}; 

the Litvak Perushim 

{like the Rema (1530-1572); 

Elijah Baal Shem of Chelm (1520 – 1583); 

Moses Rivkis (17thC.) who said "the gentiles in whose shadow Jews live and among whom Jews are disbursed are not idolaters. Rather they believe in creatio ex nihilo and the Exodus from Egypt and the main principles of faith. Their intention is to the Creator of Heaven and Earth and we are obligated to pray for their welfare."

The there is Jacob Emden (1697 – 1776)} 

Moses David Valle (d.1777); 

Baruch Fränkel-Teomim (1760–1828);

Nachman MeUman (1772-1810); 

Elijah Tsvi Soloveitchik (1805–1881); 

Samson Raphael Hirsch (1808 – 1888) who said "although disparaged because of its alleged particularism, Judaism….has been at pains to stress that, while in other respects their views and ways of life may differ from those of Judaism, the peoples in whose midst the Jews are now living [i.e. Christians] have accepted the Jewish Bible of the Old Testament as a book of Divine revelation. They profess their belief in the God of heaven and earth as proclaimed in the Bible and they acknowledge the sovereignty of Divine Providence in both this life and the next.

Israel produced an offshoot [i.e., Christianity] that had to become estranged from it in great measure, in order to bring to the world—sunk in idol worship, violence, immorality and the degradation of man—at least the tidings of the One Alone, of the brotherhood of all men, and of man’s superiority over the beast. It was to teach the renunciation of the worship of wealth and pleasures, albeit it not their use in the service of the One Alone. Together with a later offshoot [Islam] it represented a major step in bringing the world closer to the goal of all history."

The there was Isaac Lichtenstein (1824-1908);

Chaim Yedidiah Pollak (1854-1916)

Judah David Eisenstein (1854 – 1956); 

Pinchas Lapide (1922 – 1997); 

Harvey Oscar Falk (1932-2006); 

the Rabbonim of the CJCUC; 

and this project has also been supported by Rav Dov Meir Stein (d.2020) of blessed memory and other members of his Nascent Sanhedrin Project currently under my Sandak, Nasi Meir Hakak HaLevi.

Hanukkah

Hanukkah marks our devotion to universal justice. It is celebrated for 8 night starting from nightfall on the on the 24th of the 9th Month (Kislev). 

Hanukkah commemorates the defeat of the proto Antichrist Epiphanius by the Maccabees symbolising the victory of the Edah of Thyatira at the start of the Millenial Advent "Day of Darkness". 

The suffering of the righteous martyrs in the story bares witness to the necessary reality of justice following death. The nature of this concept was never made so explicit in the Septuagint and marks the beginning of a new religious era based around hope in life after death. 

The books of Maccabees are the first books of the New Noahide Testament according to Messianic Noahide Judaism. The Messianic Liturgical cycle begins on the first Sunday of Advent which is usually at the end of the 9th Month.

The Oral Torah tells us that even if there is not enough oil for the rededication, it will still be enough. The feast of rededication therefore becomes a Yartzeit lighting a candle in hope of life after death. If a righteousness is not rewarded in this life but is allowed to suffer, then likewise unpunished wickedness will not be allowed to escape justice either. 

Cheshvan-27

The end of the Roman 8th Month (October) is usually associated with Halloween, but in Judaism the holiday ath the end of the 8th month is 27th, the day when HaShem commanded Noah to depart from the Ark. This Holiday often coincides with various pagan celebrations like Divali and Samhain. 

Tishrei

Tishrei, the 7th month in Judaism is a month full of Holy Days: Rosh HaShana; Yom Kippur; Succot; the 8th Day; and Simhat Torah. 

The Holidays commemorate the events surrounding the second set of clay tablets that Moses brought down from Mount Sinai after smashing the first set because of Israel's sin with the Golden Calf. 

So Tishrei is all about second chances and starting over again and that is why we call the feast of Trumpets the Start of the Year (Rosh HaShana).

The start of the year also refers to the start of the Hashemitic mission on the planet Earth when Adam Kadmon and his Bride the Heavenly Jerusalem Above were first revealed to the repformed Qeinite, Enoch who would eventually become Adam Kadmon's firstborn, Seth. This revelation to the Qeinites marked the start of HaShem's sojourn on planet Earth with his people as Immanuel.

Rosh HaShana is called the Feast of Trumpets because it is like a second Pentecost when HaShem finally responded to the pleading of Moses and appeared a second time on Mount Sinai but would only show him his back. His name was proclaimed as he passed by the cleft in the Mountain with a Trumpet Blast. In the Oral Torah the mountain to which his face was turned crumbled.

Yom Kippur is the day that Moses returned to camp with the new Tablets. The fasted is a sign of our ratification of the covenant. 

Succot is the memorial of how the people contributed all of their belongings to the common good for the beautification of the religion. We live in tents to show our willingness to accept poverty if all of our wealth is used for the religion. 

The 8th Day marks the end of Succot and the entry into the Messianic era. Simhat Torah is an extension of the same concept of living with HaShem forever. 

3-weeks

The Three Weeks are a fast during the month of July which was the original basis for the Apostles' Fast.

The Three Weeks are a traditional period of Fasting in Judaism to mourn various disasters which have taken place throughout Jewish history starting with the Sin of the Golden Calf.

The last day of the fast is Tisha bAv which is the day we remember the destruction of the 1st and 2nd Temples mourning the success of the wicked Kingdom in 70CE by fasting to purify ourselves as the Temple of the New Jerusalem. 

Shavuot

As with every Yomtov other than Yom Kippur, the Second day of the Yomtov is for Messianic Noahides. The Teliya tells us that Messianic Noahides are to celebrate such days with a different emphasis from Judaism and in this case the focus for Messianic Noahides is supposed to be on the Ascension rather than  on Harvest.

The first Shavuot was on the 6th of Sivan and commemorated the revelation of the Exodus 20:1-24:4 Constitution.

On the 7th day of Sivan HaShem feasted with the Sanhedrin. 

Ascension

The 3rd of Sivan is the first day of the Feast of the Ascension which culminates in Pentecost. Relevant passages include:

Exodus 19 & 20
Mark 16:19-20
Luke 24:50-53
Acts 1 & 2
1 Corinthians 15:6

Please watch this video for details:

It is good practice to do Tahorat on the 3rd day of the 3rd Hebrew month dress in white and preserve your taharat until the Feast of Shavuot.

ASCENSION (MK, LK) 

40 days after the resurrection Jesus ascended on the 3rd of the 3rd and were taken from their sight by a cloud.

PENTECOST (LK, PL) 

Then He sent the gift of His Word to all Disciples at Pentecost.

SAUL (LK, PL) 
Then His Word and Name appeared to Saul of Tarsus.

JOHN-SIMON (JN) 

And He sent His Word and Name again to John-Simon (also known as Elijah) on the Island of Patmos.

And thus His Word and Name remain so with us still until His Shubiha Jesus Patibilis returns with Power and Glory.

Midpentecost

 Lag B'Omer means the 33rd day of counting the Omer. It always falls on the 18th of Iyyar. For Messianic Noahides it corresponds to the 3rd day of the Feast of Midpentecost which corresponds to the 3 days that Jesus was lost following the Pesach Sheni that his parents attended in Jerusalem when he was 12 for his Bar Mitzva. In Judaism it is remembered as the day when the Kabbalah was revealed.

Luke 2:47

James-Lazarus (JN, PL) 

Then James-Lazarus, His appointed "brother", saw Him from a fishing boat on the shore of Tiberias. 

Thomas-sunday

THOMAS SUNDAY (MT, MK, LK, JN, PL) 

On the 1st of Iyyar, Matthias and the 11 all met Jesus in Galilee when he descended to them again one week after the Resurrecton Sunday. 

This was the first time that the new 12 had seen him all together and was the beginning of a New Era. For this reason 1st of Iyar became celebrated as 1st of Muharram by Muslims. 

On this occasion, Jesus had some broiled fish and honeycomb to eat before doing many other things appearing to over 500 people at the same time.

On Thomas Sunday, Jesus told Thomas to put his finger u to his wounds in order to dispel his disbelief. 

Easter-Sunday

RAISING (HAVDALAH AFTER PASCHA)

After Pascha the women witnessed his resurrection early in the morning on the first day of Yeast (whence derives the Viking word "Yeaster" meaning "Raising"). Nisan 22nd is another holiday mandated by the Rabbonim of the Exile. It is important to note that this first day of Raising has NO OTHER SIGNIFICANCE in Rabbinical Judaism because by overlooking that fact, many have for centuries misunderstood the great secret of Noahide Judaism about which is is said, "those who know don't say and those who say don't know". But Messianic Noahides know this secret.

On the Sadducee calendar it is Resheit Katzir which is calculated differently from Rabbinical Resheit Katzir. 

It was early (MT 28:1) on the first day of the week. While it was yet still very overcast 6 women (Mary, Magda, the other Mary-Cleopa, the Mother of James, Salome and Joanna) set out to meet at the sepulchre to embalm Jesus Patibilis. Mary and Magda went ahead while the other lagged behind. 

The 6 Women

GUARDS' REPORT FOR MATTHEW
Just like on Preparation day, Mary and Magda witnessed the Earth quake again and the guards became like dead men as they saw an angel descend from heaven to roll the stone away to the right. (MT 28:2-4)

Meanwhile, the other Mary-Cleopa and the Mother of James as well as Salome were on their way to the tomb wondering who would remove the stone before they saw it open. 

One Mary immediately hurried silently to tell the Talmidim in Jerusalem they don't know where Jesus is (JN 20:1-2). 

SALOME'S REPORT FOR MARK

Magda, the other Mary-Cleopa, the Mother of James as well as Salome approached to see the angel sat on the stone to the right of the open tomb (MK 16:1-5). The angel spoke to them before departing (MT 28:5-7, MK 16:6-7)

"Don't be shocked, you are looking for Jesus Patibilis, he is risen, as he said, he is not here look where he lay."

JOANA'S REPORT (LK)
Next, Joana arrives in the morning (LK 24:1) to join Magda, the other Mary-Cleopa and the Mother of James as well as Salome standing by the Sepulchre. 

Salome and the other Mary-Clopas hurried away silently. Magda, the Mother of James and Joanna enter the Sepulchre where they see two more angels appear inside to tell them the news.

"Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee: ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’"

PETER ARRIVES (LK, JN)
The women silently hurry and tell Matthias and the 11 Apostles and others. (LK 24:3-9) Magda, the Mother of James and Joanna meet Mary, Peter and Lazarus already running back to the Sepulchre (JN 20:3-5). Peter then Lazarus enter the Sepulchre. It's not clear if they saw the two angels present, but they believe the news (JN 20:6-9)

Simon Peter finds Mary-Cleopa going to a gathering on the Emmaus road while Lazarus accompanies his mother and Joanna home to the brethren in Bethany where they prepare to leave for Galilee.

HE APPEARS (MT, MK, JN)
Before leaving with Magda, Mary sees the two angels in the Sepulchre who ask her why she crys and Mary replies.

Though almost unrecognisable, on the first day of the week when Jesus rose, he appeared to Mary & Magda first. Mary thought Jesus was a gardener when he questioned Mary as the angels did but while speaking suddenly Jesus was recognisable.

Mary rejoices when she finally recognises the gardener as Jesus. Magda worships him while Mary clasps his feet. Jesus tells Mary not to because he must ascend first. Then He instructs them to tell the Brethren to prepare to meet him in Galilee because he is going to ascend.

Magda goes telling the brethren that Jesus lives and has spoken to Mary.

GUARDS BRIBED (MT)
Meanwhile the guards had rushed to tell the chief priests what they had witnessed (MT 28:11-16)

EMMAUS (MK, LK, JN, PL)
In a different way, Jesus revealed Himself when He found Peter & the other Mary-Cleopa on the Emmaus road but they don't see it's Him while He instructs them on the road.

Peter & Mary-Cleopa meet the Risen Jesus going to Emaus

PETER

He then stops with them and the other women in the house on the Emmaus road and when those disciples assembled had shut the doors for fear of the Jews, He stood among them and breaks bread and Peter recognised Him before he vanished. 

After talking about it, two of them walk two hours back to tell the other 11 in Jerusalem. They tell them that the reports are true and Jesus has also been seen by Simon Peter.

LK 24:36, JN 20:21-23.

After Matthias & Thomas had left He appeared to 10 of the apostles, gives them peace again, shows them His hands and side, again gives them peace, commissions them, breathes Holy Spirit on them and gives them authority to forgive or withhold before ascending. 

THE 12

Although Thomas says he can't believe it because he wasn't with them when it happened, the 12 (11 and Matthias) do all agree to go to Galilee together as he commanded them for the following Sunday (Thomas Sunday). JN20:24-29, LK 24:37-43, MT28:16-17.

This is in accordance with Paul when he says that Jesus was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and (not counting female witnesses) Paul says that Jesus appeared to Cephas and eventually to the new Twelve by the following Sunday (Thomas Sunday) and ate some broiled fish.

500 (Matthew 28:18, Mark 16:15, Luke 24:44, John 20:30)

After that, He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once most of whom were still living when Paul wrote, though some had fallen asleep. 

JAMES (John 21:1)

The 4th time he appeared it was James-Lazarus who recognized him and Jesus made them breakfast. 

ALL THE APOSTLES

Then He appeared to the 72 apostles at ascension/pentecost. 

PAUL

And last of all in a different way He appeared to Paul.

 It was early (MT 28:1) on the first day of the week. Several women set out to meet at the sepulchre to embalm the crucified Jesus.

MARY'S REPORT (MT)
First to arrive at the sepulchre was Mary and the other Mary (Mother Clopas). Just like on Preparation day, the Earth quaked again as They saw an angel descend from heaven to roll the stone away to the right. (MT 28:2-3) The guards became like dead men. (MT 28:4)

SALOME'S REPORT (MT, MK)
The angel sat on the stone to the right (MK 16:5). Then Salome and Mary Mother of James also came to the tomb (MK 16:1) at sunrise (MK 16:2) wondering who would remove the stone before they saw what had happened. The angel spoke to all those Women before departing (MT 28:5-7, MK 16:6-7)
"Don't be shocked, you are looking for Jesus who was crucified, he is risen, as he said, he is not here look where he lay."

MAGDA'S REPORT (MT, JN)
While it was yet still very overcast (JN 20:1), Magda arriving a little behind them sees the Sepulchre open where Salome and Mother Mary ran to tell her they don't know where Jesus Patibilis is.

Mother Mary & Magda silently hurry to tell the Talmidim in Jerusalem (JN 20:2) leaving Mother Clopas and James's Mother by the Sepulchre.

JOANA'S REPORT (LK)
Next, Joana arrives in the morning (LK 24:1) and enters the Sepulchre with Mother Clopas and James's Mother where they see two more angels appear inside to tell them the news.
"Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee: ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’"

PETER ARRIVES (LK, JN)
The women silently hurry and tell the 11 Apostles and others. (LK 24:3-9) Joana goes on after Salome while Mother Clopas and James's Mother meet Peter and Beloved Lazarus already running back to the Sepulchre (JN 20:3-5) with Mary & Magda. Peter then Beloved Lazarus enter the Sepulchre. It's not clear if they saw the two angels present, but they believe the news (JN 20:6-9)

Simon Peter accompanies Mother Clopas to a gathering on the Emmaus road while Beloved Lazarus accompanies his Mother home to the brethren in Bethany where they prepare to leave for Galilee.

HE APPEARS (MT, MK, JN)
Before leaving with Mary, Magda sees the two angels in the Sepulchre who ask her why she crys and Magda replies.

Though almost unrecognisable on the first day of the week when Jesus Patibilis rose, he appeared to Mary & Magda first. Magda thought Jesus Patibilis was a gardener when he questioned Magda as the angels did but while speaking suddenly Jesus Patibilis was recognisable.

Mary & Magda rejoice when they finally recognised the gardener as Jesus Patibilis. Mary worships him while Magda clasps his feet. Jesus Patibilis tells Magda not to because he must ascend first. Then He instructs them to tell the Brethren to prepare to meet him in Galilee because he is going to ascend.

Mary & Magda go telling the brethren that Jesus Patibilis lives.

GUARDS BRIBED (MT)
Meanwhile the guards had rushed to tell the chief priests what they had witnessed (MT 28:11-16)

EMMAUS (MK, LK, JN, PL)
In a different way, Jesus Patibilis revealed Himself when He found Peter & Mother Clopas on the Emmaus road but they don't see it's Him while He instructs them on the road.

He then stops with them and the other women in the house on the Emmaus road and when those disciples assembled had shut the doors for fear of the Jews, He stood among them and breaks bread. He gives them peace, shows them His hands and side, again gives them peace, commissions them, breathes Holy Spirit on them and gives them authority to forgive or withhold before ascending.

After talking about it, two of them walk two hours back to tell Matthias and the 10 in Jerusalem. They tell them that the reports are true and Jesus Patibilis has also been seen by Simon Peter.

HE RETURNS (MT, MK, LK, JN, PL) 
Though Thomas says he can't believe it because He wasn't with them, they do all agree to go to Galilee together where Matthias and the 11 all meet Jesus Patibilis when he descends to them the following Sunday and he had some broiled fish and honeycomb to eat before appearing to over 500 people at the same time.

Beloved Lazarus (JN, PL) 

Then Beloved Lazarus, saw Him on the shore of Tiberias. 

ASCENSION (MK, LK) 

40 days after the resurrection Jesus Patibilis ascended and were taken from their sight by a cloud.

PENTECOST (LK, PL) 

Then He sent the gift of His Word to all Disciples at Pentecost.

SAUL (LK, PL) 
Then His Word and Name appeared to Saul of Tarsus.

JOHN (JN) 

And He sent His Word and Name again to John on the Island of Patmos.

And thus His Word and Name remain so with us still until His Shubiha returns with Power and Glory.

Holy-Week

Here is the NT radicalist interpretstion of Holy Week. 

PALM SUNDAY 15th Aviv

John Chapter 12:12 on Palm Sunday Jesus sits on a Donkey in the temple. This is the second time in the past 7 days. A voice from heaven speaks. Everyone expects something epic from Jesus but he says just a few sentences about dying then leaves. 

Matthew 26, Mark 14, Luke 22

In the evening, Jesus performs Havdalah after finishing tish with his disciples. 

John chapter 13, Judas takes the shirayim and immediately leaves to betray him. 

John Chapters 14 to 17, after Havdalah Jesus tells his disciples about the Paraclete as they walk from Mount Zion to the Mount of Olives. Jesus leaves his disciples in the garden and takes James John and Zebedee a stone's throw further. He then goes on himself a little further to pray alone and is strengthened by an Angel. 

Jesus is arrested in the garden of Gethsemane and taken to the house of Annas. A disciple known to Anna's let's Peter in. Jesus speaks. A young man runs away naked and Peter denies Jesus before the cock crows twice as Jesus is taken from the house of Annas. 

HOLY MONDAY 16th Aviv

Matthew 26:57-67, Mark 14:53-65, Luke 22:66-71, John 18:24.

At break of day (sunrise) on Monday Jesus was brought from Annas to Caiaphas, the Chef Priests, Scribes and Elders. Jesus reveals the Pardes infuriating the Sadducees. 

We are told at this point that Judas hanged himself. But I doubt that we can take it that he did so at this time rather than later. 

HOLY TUESDAY 17th Aviv

Matt 27:11-14, Mark 15:1-5, Luke 23:1-7, John 18:28-37.

The next day Tuesday morning Jesus was seen by Pontius Pilate who wants to let him go after being reminded that Pilate has declared Jesus king. 

HOLY WEDNESDAY 18th Aviv

Luke 23:8-12

The next day, Wednesday, he was seen by Herod. 

HOLY THURSDAY 19th Aviv

Matthew 27:15-30, Mark 15:6-19, Luke 23:13-25, John 18:38-19:16. 

The next day Thursday Jesus was back to Pilate for the last time. Claudia begs Pilate not to handle the case. Pilate ponders, "what is truth?" then frees Barabbas, is scourge and crowned with thorns and when the sun had set after a long day, Pilate washes his hands and Jesus is finally sentenced to Crucifixion by 21pm preparation day night.

GOOD FRIDAY 20th Aviv

PARASKEUE (Preparation day) Friday morning 6am he was nailed to the cross. 

HOLY SATURDAY 21st Aviv

Jesus Harrows Hell.

AZUMOS (15th NISAN) & PALM SUNDAY

Palm Sunday is always on the Sadducee 15th of Aviv. Since we are told that after the Lazarus Feast meal on Erev Shabbat HaGadol, in the Morning of the 15th John's Gospel states that Jesus sat on a donkey in the Temple of Jerusalem a second time. 

John 12:12-17:26

Riding on Yom Tov is a practice which has subsequently been prohibited by Rabbinical decree meaning that no other Torah observant Jew can ever do that again. But such Rabbinical decress are not retroactive, so the NT Jesus can never be regarded as having broken that law. Messianic Noahides only observe the 15th as the first of the 7 days of Matsos to abstain from Chametz. It is the Day they prepare their first fruit Omers and it is the day they celebrate the Bat Kol. 

THE HAVDALAH SEDER AFTER AZUMOS
The most important thing for Messianic Noahides is the Havdalah (Melave Malka) which takes place after the sun has set on the 15th when the Eve of the 16th begins because they do not observe the regular Pesach Seder on the eve of the 15th.

At this Messianic Noahide "Melave Malka Seder" on the Eve of the 16th, there is no Pesach Lamb served, only a bone leftover from the Lazarus Hagigah of the 14th symbolizing the Pesach Lamb's bones which were given to the dogs in Egypt in order to make the Egyptians bury the bones of their idol. By displaying Lamb bones on their tables for the Melave Malka Seder, Messianic Noahides perform an act of "nullifying the idol".

After the Melave Malka on the Eve of the 16th, Jesus was arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane. 

RESHEIT KATZIR (16th-17th NISAN)
These days the 16th is a solemn Sabbath appointed by the Rabbonim of the Exile. Messianic Noahides must observe the Solemn Sabbath of the 16th as the day their Firstfruit (Resheit Katzir)  was "waved" by the Chief Priests and Sadducees being passed from Ananias to Caiphas on the 16th and from Caiaphas to Pilate on the 17th. Then from Pilate to Herod on the 18th then Herod to Pilate again on the 19th before being crucified on the 20th.

ΕΟΡΤΗΣ / KOL HAMOED (18th-19th NISAN)

He was then passed from Pilate to Herod on the 18th and finally from Herod back to Pilate again on the 19th who washed his hands of the situation by midnight. 

PARASKEUE (20th NISAN)

Paraskeué refers to the preparation day on the 20th of Nisan when Jesus was crucified in the morning and buried before sunset. 

PASCHA (21st NISAN)

Pascha is the Romaniote Jewish word for the holy Yom Tov Sabbath of the 21st which begins after sunset on Paraskeue. Messianic Noahides commemorate it as the Harrowing of Hades.

The Chrismation of Jesus

Jesus was anointed by Mary at the house of Simon the Lepper in Bethany in the eve of Aviv 14th after raising Mary's brother Lazarus from the dead. 

This physical anointing of Jesus by the sinful woman is why he is called Christ by his followers not just because he was anointed by the Holy Spirit as all true believers are. 

The idea that the Messiah will be wed to a sinful woman might have been fulfilled if this Mary was actually the wife of Jesus. 

The NT passages relating this event are:

Matthew 26:1–16

Mark 14:1–11

John 12:1–8

and finally we also find it very out of place in Luke 7:36-50. 

Matthew and Mark all make it very clear that this event was less than 2 days before Azumos and was what inspired Judas to betray Jesus to the Scribes of the Chief Priests. Judas approached the Sadducees to make a deal concerning his Rabbi, after Temple Service on Shabbat. They also help us understand that John means 14th Aviv when he says Jesus came to Bethany and they hosted a dinner for him "6 (whole) days before Passover". The dinner could not have been on the evening of the 14th so must have been the eve of the 14th. 

Jesus also makes clear here that his Kanesa is called "The Poor". 

GREAT SABBATH (LAZARUS SATURDAY)

On the Hasmonean calendar Great Sabbath and the 14th of Aviv are always the same day. Messianic Noahides, unlike their Sadducee ancestors, do not take part in the Pesach ritual at sunset on the 14th, but are allowed to prepare a Hagigah before sunset on the 13th. The portions of the Hagigah could be eaten any time from the beginning of the 14th until the end of the 15th. It should be boiled to show that it is not a Korban Pesach. 

A bone is saved from the Hagigah to take part in a sort of Melave Malka Seder after sunset on the 15th. 

Interestingly, in Armenia, they still eat a meal on Lazarus Saturday called "Hashlamah" which looks like a loanword from Hebrew meaning the Peace offering.

HaShlamah

This is probably the dinner that Jesus enjoyed at the house of Lazarus on the 14th of Aviv.
