...So 2013
will be unusual and break the pattern of the 3
Days of Purim. The fast will be basically from dawn
until sundown on month 12, Adar 11, in a year 13.
Originally there was a 3 day fast named after Queen
Esther, recent bride, "Go gather all the Jews who are
found in Shushan and fast over me, and do not eat and do
not drink three days, night and day; and I and my
maidens will also fast thus." They fasted "over Esther"
a bride and her maidens. Who is a maiden? A maiden is a
young virgin. Are we
reminded of Matthew 25: 6-10 with these details
in The Book of Esther?
So with the Days of Esther, Days of Purim in 2013, The
Fast of Esther is observed earlier than
expected this year. It is to be WATCHED for
earlier than usually anticipated! Remember the
"goodman of his house" who plans to watch later than he
should? Adar 13 will NOT BE the day of The
Fast this year! It is typical for the Jewish
bridegroom and Jewish bride to fast before going to the
wedding canopy, the chuppah. In 3 of the 4 Gospels the
kosher rabbi from the Galilee, the Messiah
Yahushua/Yeshua (Christ the Lord) mentions fasting. He
notes that when the bridegroom is with you, you will not
fast. When he is "taken from you" then "you will fast."
The implication? When the kosher rabbi groom returns for
his bride, according to The Ancient Jewish Wedding
Model, the fast will end and the groom, rabbi and
Messiah, will accompany His bride to the
chuppah. The Master's words are in Matthew 9:15, Mark
2:19, and Luke 5:35. Do
clues point to Adar 11, Ta' anit Esther, The Fast
of Esther on 2-21-2013 for some momentous event?
Earlier than expected. When most are not fasting or
watching and are consumed with "the cares of life." At
the midnight hour for Israel? The apostacia of
The Blessed Hope? Come quickly, Lord...
Jean, thank you so much for these words!
Amen! Help us Lord, to be ready by your amazing Grace!
Just last week didn’t we see such an event
…”…earlier than expected”: It was announced and
calculated for Febr 15, 2013: The record-setting flyby
of asteroid 2012 DA14. An extreme close encounter!
“No danger!” they said… However… just few hours before (earlier than expected) … This happened:
On Friday, February 15th at 9:30 am local
time in Russia, a small asteroid struck the atmosphere
over the city of Chelyabinsk and exploded. According to
reports from news organizations and Russian authorities,
as many as 1000 people received minor injuries from the
shock wave. This is the most energetic recorded meteor
strike since the Tunguska impact of 1908.
Note: In the following paragraph,
bold-faced numbers were updated on Feb. 17th to reflect
new and improved estimates of the asteroid's size and
energy. It
was even bigger than we thought!
Researchers have conducted a preliminary
analysis of the event. "Here is what we know so far,"
says Bill Cooke, head of NASA's Meteoroid Environment
Office. "The asteroid was about 17 meters in diameter
and weighed approximately 10,000 metric tons. It struck
Earth's atmosphere at 40,000 mph (18 km/s) and broke
apart about 12 to 15 miles (20 to 25 km) above Earth's
surface. The energy of the resulting explosion was in
the vicinity of 500 kilotons of TNT." http://www.spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=18&month=02&year=2013
