What the Hell is Going On !!!
http://conpats.blogspot.com/
Welcome to Tetzaveh (You Command), this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion).
This Shabbat is one of four special Shabbatim preceding Pesach (Passover): Shabbat Zachor (Remember).
Since this Shabbat falls before Purim (Feast of Lots), it has a special Maftir and Haftarah reading.
Please read with us these portions of God’s word that will be heard in synagogues
around the world during this week’s Shabbat (Saturday) service. We know you will be blessed!
In last week’s Torah reading, God instructed Moses and the Israelites to construct a Tabernacle (Mishkan) in the wilderness.
This week, God commands them to bring pure olive oil for the lamp, and to create holy garments for the priests (cohanim).

Weekly Torah Portion: Tetzaveh
"It's a bird, it's a plane..." no, it's just the Kohen Gadol, ordinary mortal but super-hero, nonetheless, serving G-d in the Holy Temple. With the powers vested in his priestly vestments, the integrity which fills his heart and his unfettered love for his brethren and for all humanity, the kohen serving beside the altar in the Holy Temple is the embodiment of every virtue and act of courage portrayed by modern fictional super heroes.

David “King” Friedman Approved As Ambassador to Israel
by Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz
David Friedman, President Trump’s nominee for US Ambassador to Israel, was approved on Thursday by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Friedman, a lawyer, is an outspoken supporter of Israel. The vote reflected party affiliations, with all 11 Republicans supporting Friedman’s nomination, while New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez was the only Democrat to vote for Friedman. Friedman was grilled by the committee for his harsh public statements against former President Obama, who he called a “blatant anti-Semite” for his deal with Iran that removed sanctions while allowing them to continue their nuclear program. He also referred to J Street, the extreme left-wing Jewish group, as “Kapos”,
Jews who helped the Nazis in World War II. [...]

INTO THE FRAY: Liberman - A dove in hawk’s feathers ?
by Martin Sherman
... The return to reticence? Indeed, apart from a few short-lived declarations of pseudo-resolve in the immediate wake of the changing of the guard at the White House, the Israeli leadership seems to have slipped back into its compliant pre-election mode of reticent hesitancy regarding the future of Judea-Samaria. Instead of seizing the moment and presenting the incoming administration with a new robust and assertive policy blueprint, the Israeli government hummed and hawed, essentially receding back to positions not very different from those it adopted under the Obama-administration.

Shabbat Shalom - Parasha Tetzaveh - the Beauty of Holiness !!!
Reading from the Torah scroll using a silver yad (Torah pointer, literally, hand)
Shabbat Shalom !
Welcome to Tetzaveh
(You Command),
this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion).
this week’s Parasha (Torah Portion).
This Shabbat is one of four special Shabbatim preceding Pesach (Passover):
Shabbat Zachor (Remember).
Since this Shabbat falls before Purim (Feast of
Lots), it has a special Maftir and Haftarah
reading. Please read with us these portions of God’s word
that will be heard in synagogues around the world during
this week’s Shabbat (Saturday) service. We know you will be
blessed!
TETZAVEH (You shall
Command)
Exodus 27:20–30:10; 1 Samuel 15:1–34; 1 Peter 2:1–25;
Maftir Deuteronomy 25:17–19
“Command [Tetzaveh] the
Israelites to bring you clear oil of pressed olives for
the light so that the lamps may be kept burning.” (Exodus
27:20)
In last week’s Torah reading, God instructed Moses and
the Israelites to construct a Tabernacle
(Mishkan) in the wilderness.
This week, God commands them to bring pure olive
oil for the lamp, and to create holy garments for the priests (cohanim).
This gold Menorah, created by The Temple Institute, is similar to the one
used in ancient times in the Holy Temple and will be consecrated for use
in the next Temple.
The Role of Beauty
and Splendor in Serving God
“These are the
garments they are to make: a breastpiece, an ephod, a
robe, a woven tunic, a turban and a sash. They are to
make these sacred garments for your brother Aaron and his
sons, so they may serve Me as priests.” (Exodus 28:4)
In this Parasha, sacred garments are to be made
for the priests so they can serve God.
One of them is the breastplate
of judgment (Choshen Hamishpat).
The breastplate is associated with the Urim and Thummim,
and they are used for divining the will of the Lord.
The priestly breastplate was made of embroidered linen
sized and shaped into a square cubit. It contained four
rows, each with three precious gems embedded within the
plate and surrounded with gold.
Each jewel in the
priest’s breastplate represented one of the twelve
tribes of Israel, whose names were engraved upon the
stones. God would use the individual
letters of these names to spell out His judgments for Israel
when the Urim was used to consult Him.
"He is to stand before
Eleazar the priest, who will obtain decisions for him by
inquiring of the Urim before the LORD. At his command he
and the entire community of the Israelites will go out,
and at his command they will come in." (Numbers
27:21)

Kohen Gadol (High Priest) and the priestly
garments. (photo by Andreas Franz Borchert)
In the Brit Chadashah (New Testament), John
describes his vision of the New Jerusalem, in which the
foundation stones of the city walls are adorned with 12
gems. Some, if not all, of these gems are also
in the breastplate.
Some of the stones’ true identities may have been lost,
since the Hebrew and Greek cultures shared no definitive gem
names, especially during the 1,000 years between the writing
of 1 Samuel and the Book of Revelation:
“The
foundation stones of the city wall were adorned with every
kind of precious stone. The first foundation
stone was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third,
chalcedony; the fourth, emerald; the fifth, sardonyx;
the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth,
beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the
eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.” (Revelation
21:19–20)
There are over 30 different opinions concerning the
identification of the breastplate stones in rabbinical
literature and tradition. (Temple Institute)
Cutting malachite, which has been mined and smelted in Israel's Timna
Valley for over 3,000 years.
What we see in the description of the Breastplate
and New Jerusalem is that God considers beauty to be
glorifying as we serve Him on earth and in
Heaven, where we will one day be surrounded by the brilliant
splendor of streets paved with gold and divinely cut jewels
embedded in foundations.
God also considers certain colors and material important
and glorifying in service to Him.
“You shall make holy
garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for
beauty." (Exodus 28:2)
The ephod, or
garment underneath the breastplate, was made out of fine
linen and woven out of gold, blue, purple and scarlet
threads. Although a priestly garment,
it seems that King David wore it as well when he brought
back the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem.
“Now David was clothed with
a robe of fine linen with all the Levites who were
carrying the ark, and the singers and Chenaniah the leader
of the singing with the singers. David also wore an ephod
of linen.”
(1 Chronicles 15:27; see also 2 Samuel 6:14)
(1 Chronicles 15:27; see also 2 Samuel 6:14)

Serving God in the
Beauty of Holiness
Everything God creates in His physical world
helps us understand His spiritual world. The use
of physical gems on the breastplate of the Kohen Gadol is no
different.
Since these stones represent the 12 tribes, and the
breastplate is connected with discovering the will of God,
the stones represent how precious Israel is to the Lord and
His desire to lead them into His will.
The precious stones embedded in the foundations of the
New Jerusalem also represent the 12 tribes. From this we can
understand the continued importance of Israel in the
Messianic Age.
All Believers in Yeshua play a significant role, as
well. Scripture says that we are a holy priesthood and
living stones, a spiritual house through Yeshua the Messiah:
“And
coming to Him as to a living stone which has been rejected
by men, but is choice and precious in the sight of God,
you also, as living stones, are being built up as a
spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up
spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Messiah
Yeshua." (1
Peter 2:4–5)
Like a precious jewel, precisely cut, shaped and polished
by a master lapidary, we each have the ability to uniquely
reflect the beauty and glory of God's Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) as we serve Him.
When we fulfill that
destiny, we take our place in a spiritual house,
whose cornerstone—the One who holds it all together—is, of
course, Yeshua HaMashiach.
“Behold, I lay in Zion a
choice stone, a precious corner stone, and he who believes
in Him will not be disappointed.” (1 Peter 2:6)

Parasha Zachor
Because this Shabbat falls before Purim (Lots),
a special reading from Deuteronomy 25:17–19 is
studied in addition to the regular Scripture portion.
This Shabbat is also called the Zachor (Remembrance)
reading, because it details God’s command that we remember
the wickedness of Amalek:
“Remember
what Amalek did to you on the road, on your way out of
Egypt.
“That
he encountered you on the way and cut off those lagging to
your rear, when you were tired and exhausted; he did not
fear God.
“And
it shall come to pass, when the Lord your God has
given you rest from all your enemies round about, in the
land which the Lord your God is giving you for an
inheritance to possess it, that you shall obliterate the
memory of Amalek from under the heavens. Do
not forget.”
These Scriptures to remember Amalek are read on the
Sabbath before Purim—which celebrates Esther’s victory in
helping to save the Jewish People from annihilation in
Persia.
Why do we read them now? Because the one who plotted the
annihilation, the anti-Semite Haman,
is believed to be a descendant of Amalek.
We must remember what he did as well.
This Shabbat is, therefore, also called Shabbat Zachor
(Shabbat of Remembrance), and is one four special
readings before Passover.

Haftarah Zachor: The
Aftermath of Disobedience
“Now go and strike Amalek
and utterly destroy all that he has, and do not spare him;
but put to death both man and woman, child and infant, ox
and sheep, camel and donkey.” (1 Samuel 15:3)
In Haftarah Zachor (1 Samuel 15:1–34), God remembers the
Amalekites and tells Saul through the Prophet Samuel (Shmuel
HaNavi) that He is going to punish them for fighting Israel
after they left Egypt. Saul, therefore, is to utterly
obliterate the memory of the Amalekites.
Although Saul does destroy the Amalekites and
everything considered useless, he spares King Agag and
keeps the best of the sheep and oxen and everything
considered valuable.
Saul defends his
disobedience by saying that he kept the best of Amalek
for a sacrifice to the Lord.
Nevertheless, God sees through his so-called "good
intentions," and Samuel rebukes Saul's defiance with a word
from the Lord:
“Does
the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much
as in obeying the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice,
and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
"For
rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance
like the evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected the
word of the Lord, He has rejected you as king.” (1
Samuel 15:22–23)
Saul Reproved by Samuel, by John Singleton Copley
Saul's misplaced mercy in keeping King Agag alive
almost wiped out the Jewish People.
According to commentaries, Agag impregnated a maidservant
before his death and, therefore, the Amalekite lineage
survived. Haman, who is called the “Agagi,” was his
offspring.
Through Haman,
Amalek once again tried to destroy the Jewish People.
Though murder is abhorrent to the Jewish People and all
followers of Yeshua, God is utterly committed to the
survival of His people, and He will do whatever is necessary
to ensure their future.
Remembering Agag and Haman reminds us that our own
disobedience can negatively affect those whom God loves,
long after we are gone. Let us, therefore, set our hearts
on being obedient, rather than simply doing what seems best
at the time.
Reading the Torah using a silver and gold yad
Amalek Lives On
“Finally, be strong in the
Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full
armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm
against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is
not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers,
against the powers, against the world forces of this
darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in
the heavenly places.” (Ephesians 6:10–12)
Amalek represents all evil forces throughout
history trying to stop God’s plan. It is the opposite of
everything beautiful and glorifying to God.
It still exists today as an anti-Messiah spirit that does
not fear God, and despises God’s people with a venomous
hatred.
The spirit of Amalek is against Israel.
We see this same
spirit active within the fundamentalist Jihadi Islamic
factions whose sole aim is to kill and destroy
Christians and Jews once and for all time—that
is the foundational ideology of Islamic scriptures.
A young Israeli girl entertains her sibling.
What is the only way to defeat the spirit of Amalek? Zachor—remember.
We must never forget what the spirit of Amalek has done
to the Jewish People over the past 3,000 years—as expressed
in the slogan for Holocaust Remembrance Day—“Never Forget.”
Even as the last of the Holocaust Survivors become
elderly and pass away, the remembrance of the horrors of the
Holocaust that the spirit of Amalek committed against God’s
people through the Nazis must never be forgotten.
We must always remember and never forget that we
have an enemy who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy;
therefore, we must be continually on the alert and wear
our spiritual armor daily.
God's will is that we not be defeated, but that we live
victorious, abundant, and joyous lives through Yeshua,
empowered by the Ruach HaKodesh.
“The thief comes only to
steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have
life, and have it abundantly.” (John 10:10)
In these troubled last days, as the spirit of Amalek once
again tries to destroy Israel, please pray for the salvation
of the Jewish People and help us bring the Good News of
Yeshua to the Holy Land.
"I will strengthen
Judah and save the tribes of Joseph. I will restore them
because I have compassion on them. They will be as though
I had not rejected them, for I am the LORD their God and I
will answer them." (Zechariah 10:6)
"The LORD their God will
save His people on that day as a shepherd saves his
flock. They will sparkle in his land like jewels in a
crown."
(Zechariah 9:16)

gave the world the BIBLE. Today there are about 14 million
Jewish people in the world though most have never studied
the Messianic Prophecies. Finally, for the first time, there will
be a Hebrew Messianic Prophecy Bible, based on the
Ancient Dead Sea Scrolls and Masoretic texts translated
into hundreds of languages, exposing the true meanings.
Many have falsely said that God is finished with His
Chosen People; however, Bible prophecy clearly states that
this will never be so. In fact, in these Last Days, God is moving
among His people to physically and spiritually restore them.
