Almond House Fellowship

Join us today for our special presentation for The Day of Trumpets!

We've released this video a few days in advance of the actual feast-day to give you time to listen to the message, meditate on the Word and make your preparations for celebrating this special day in God's calendar.

We hope this study blesses you as you prepare to meet with God on His set-apart Appointed time.

Shalom!

The people of Israel are instructed to bring the ‘first-fruits’ of their land (the first and best of their harvest) as an offering to YAH, to show gratitude for the richness and fertility of the land that had been given to them. Linked to the idea of offering is the law of tithing, the third year being the ‘year of tithing’ whereby the people would give to the poor, needy and suffering alongside the Levite priests, as part of their tithing to YAH. Following this, Moses details the instructions for the pillar that Joshua would construct and then the giving of the blessings and curses, to be delivered on Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal respectively.

The blessings that stem from obedience to the Torah are told to the people, however afterwards comes the one of the heaviest passages in the Torah: the prophetic rebuke for the nation and their future lawlessness.

After the intensity of the previous passage, the parsha concludes with something of a complement to the current nation, that now, only after forty years of wandering have they attained the awareness needed to truly follow YAH’s path and live as a righteous nation in the Promised Land.

Ki Tetzei is comprised of a series of mitzvot (commandments) reaffirmed and embellished from their original forms, as given earlier in the Torah, as well as some new ones introduced. This is the point in Moses’ final address to Israel where the people are reminded of the tenets of the covenant they have agreed to; seventy-four of those mitzvot detailed in this parsha alone.

Included in this parsha are the laws of how to treat a woman taken captive following war and how she must be treated with respect before being taken in marriage; the laws preventing the loss of the first-born inheritance (as seen previously with Jacob, Rachel and Leah); the punishment for a rebellious son; the return of lost objects and animals to their owners and even health and safety laws pertaining to the roof of a house; laws that directly address divorce, fornication and seduction, adultery (including protection for rape victims), but a law that harshly punishes false accusations of adultery; also included are ethical concerns, such as the duties of an employer to pay their workers on time, the fair treatment of working animals and the ethical way to treat someone in debt.

Amongst these mitzvot are many prophetic Messianic references such as the pronouncement not to leave an executed man hung on a tree overnight due to the curse that would come upon the land, as well as the divorce laws, which provide a glimpse into what would be achieved at the cross.

Moses instructs the people of Israel to appoint judges and law enforcement officers; “justice, justice shall you pursue…” Moses proclaims. Such justice must be given without corruption or favouritism but be meted out with balanced scales and without human bias. It must be carried out with righteousness, according to the character of Our Father. Moses states that all sinful crimes are to be thoroughly investigated and all evidence must be strictly examined before action is taken — only by the account of two or three witnesses, can someone be convicted and punished.

Next, the parsha gives us the prohibitions against idolatry and sorcery; strong language is given to deter the children of Israel in following after necromancers or magicians, those who draw their knowledge from the sun, moon and stars and those who would seek to pull the children of Israel away from Adonai. The laws regarding kings are then given, with the restrictions on the glory they can give to themselves and how they are to remain as ‘one of the people’ in humility. Following this, the guidelines for the “cities of refuge” (for those who have committed manslaughter) are reaffirmed.

Finally, the rules of war and engagement are given: those who are exempt from fighting in war, the requirement to offer terms of peace before attacking a city is pronounced and the prohibition against cutting down certain trees when laying siege to enemy cities, “for man is like a tree of the field”.

Shalom everyone, Jakkie speaking.

Me and my wife Emma have some news to share, we believe YAH is moving us on from Almond House.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to listen to my teachings and allow me to take just a small part in building His kingdom. In teaching I've learnt. All glory to the Most High.

YAH working through Almond House ministry has gave me and my wife so many blessings in the years gone by, it has been a special part of our walk and I've been honored that YAH allowed me to take part since the beginning.

We pray for the future of Almond House, and ask you pray for ours as we seek Him on what He has in store for us regarding ministry.

Only 1 week until Pentecost / Shavuot 🕊🔥

Now 20% discount on of our Biblical Calendar. Follow along with Almond House as we observe the Feasts, New Moons, Shabbat Torah Portion readings, and more...

The Biblical Calendar has been widely debated for thousands of years. For this year, our ministry has been led to follow these Appointed Time dates. This calendar serves as a temporary standard in observing the Appointed Times and Torah readings together as a broader online community, while we continue to study, evaluate and prayerfully consider other proposed calendars.

Calendar Base
This calendar is based on the Hillel II calendar Jewish Calendar, with specific adjustments to the observance dates of Firstfruits and Pentecost. In this model, Firstfruits is observed after the weekly Sabbath rather than after the first High Sabbath of Unleavened Bread, as is customary in traditional Judaism. This adjustment is made to align with a Biblical reading of Leviticus 23:15 and consequently results in a different date for Pentecost, as it is calculated by counting fifty days from Firstfruits.
Aside from these distinctions and the New Moons*, all other Appointed Times and Torah Portions remain consistent with the dates observed in the Jewish calendar.

Disclaimer
Where possible, we have included the original Biblical Hebrew month names used before the Babylonian captivity. For example, “Zif” is used instead of “Iyyar” (1 Kings 6:1, 6:37). However, for some months, such as Tammuz, no earlier Biblical name has been recorded. If the use of post-exilic names is a concern, you may simply cover or omit them as you see fit.

Emor begins with commandments related to the priestly service and also the duties of the high priest. It details the things that will make those of the priesthood impure, ritually unclean or defiled and discusses the restrictions of service on the descendants of Aaron who have physical defects (they may not come near to the presence of YAH to make offerings, however they may still eat of the holy and most-holy food offerings).

Emor also gives the commandment that a new-born animal, of those ‘clean’ animals that can be offered (cow, sheep and goat), must remain with its mother for seven days, only becoming appropriate for offering following this period of time. Also included with this is the statute that an animal and its young cannot be offered on the same day.

Following this are the details of the ‘Appointed Times’, the Moedim, the holy feasts of YHVH. The statutes of each feast and when it should be celebrated are given, summarising the festivals that El Shaddai has appointed for His people: Passover (Pesach) and Unleavened Bread (Chag Matzot), First Fruits (of the barley harvest, offered during Chag Matzot), the counting of the Omer on each of the forty-nine days leading up to the Feast of Weeks (Shavuot,), the Day of Trumpets (Yom Teruah), the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippor), Tabernacles (Sukkot) and finally the most-holy assembly of the ‘Eighth Day’, which immediately follows the seven days of Tabernacles (Shemini Atzeret).

The portion conclude with ordinances for lighting the menorah and the showbread in the Tabernacle (and later the temple). The portion then details the example of a man who was executed for blasphemy, following which are the details of punishment for murder (execution), injury or damage to property (financial compensation).
