THE RETURN OF MESSIAH – Trumpets or Atonement?
Many will point to Yom Teruah, the biblical day of trumpets, as the return of Messiah, due to the instruction to sound a trumpet 🎺 in connection with the writings of Paul.
“And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the people of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe a day of solemn rest, a memorial proclaimed with blast of trumpets, a holy convocation.” – {Leviticus 23:23-24}
“For the LORD himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the LORD.” – {1 Thessalonians 4:16-17}
However, did you know there is a VERY significant trumpet blast that is connected to Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement and the Jubilee year?
“”You shall count seven weeks of years, seven times seven years, so that the time of the seven weeks of years shall give you forty-nine years. Then you shall sound the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land. And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, when each of you shall return to his property and each of you shall return to his clan.” – {Leviticus 25:8-10}
The previous passage should sound very similar to a Messianic Prophesy, found in Isaiah!
The Spirit of the LORD God is upon me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to bring good news to the poor;
he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor,
and the day of vengeance of our God. – {Isaiah 61:1-2}
The previous passage is one that Jesus (Y’shua) reads in the synagogue on the Sabbath, in Luke 4:18!
Check out what commentary from the Zadokite Priests, authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls, have to say about this passage and day, in a scroll known as The Heavenly Prince Melchizedek;
The Heavenly Prince Melchizedek (11Q13) And concerning that which He said, In this year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his property (Lev. 23:13); and likewise, And this is the manner of release: every creditor shall release that which he has lent to his neighbor. He shall not exact it of his neighbour and his brother, for God’s release has been proclaimed (Deut. 15:2).
And it will be proclaimed at the end of days concerning the captives as He said, to proclaim liberty to the captives (Isa. 61:1). Its interpretation is that He will assign them to the Sons of Heaven and to the inheritance of Melchizedek; for He will cast their lot amid the portions of Melchizedek, who will return them there and will proclaim to them liberty, forgiving them the wrong-doings of all their iniquities.
And this thing will occur in the first week of the Jubilee that follows the nine Jubilees. And the Day of Atonement is the end of the tenth Jubilee, when all the Sons of Light and the men of the lot of Melchizedek will be atoned for.
And a statute concerns them to provide them with their rewards. For this is the moment of the Year of Grace for Melchizedek. And he will, by his strength, judge the holy ones of God, executing judgement as it is written concerning him in the Songs of David, who said, ELOHIM has taken his place in the divine council; in the midst of the gods he holds judgement (Psalms 82:1).
And it was concerning him that he said, Let the assembly of the peoples return to the height above them; God will judge the peoples (Psalms 7:7-8).
As for that which he said, How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? Selah (Psalms 82:2), its interpretation concerns Belial and the spirits of his lot who rebelled by turning away from the precepts of God.
And Melchizedek will avenge the vengeance of the judgements of God and he will drag them from the hand of Belial and from the hand of all the spirits of his lot.
This is the day of Peace/Salvation concerning which God spoke through Isaiah the prophet, who said, “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger who proclaims peace, who brings good news, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion: Your God reigns (Isa. 52:7).
Its interpretation; the mountains are the prophets and the messenger is the Anointed one of the spirit, concerning whom Daniel said, “Until an anointed one, a prince (Dan. 9:25).
And he who brings good news, who proclaims salvation: it is concerning him that it is written… To comfort all who mourn, to grant to those who mourn in Zion] (Isa. 61:2-3).
To comfort those who mourn: its interpretation, to make them understand all the ages of time… In truth … will turn away from Belial… by the judgements of God, as it is written concerning him, who says toZion; your ELOHIM reigns. Zion is …, those who uphold the Covenant, who turn from walking in the way of the people.
And your ELOHIM is Melchizedek, who will save them from the hand of Belial. As for that which He said, Then you shall send abroad the trumpet in all the land (Lev. 25:9)…
