Rosh Hashanah - The Day that No Man Knows

Matthew 24:36

"But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only."

When Yeshua (Jesus) gave this discourse in Matthew many believe that it was given on the day we call, "Rosh Hashanah", the Jewish New Year, the day that the Shofar (Ram's Horn / Trumpet) is blown 100 times. The day of Rosh Hashanah is known as:

"The day that no one knows" by the Jews.

The reason for this is that the calender of the Jews is determined by the Moon. The first day of the month is determined by watchers who stand on the Mt. of Olives in Jerusalem and spy the Eastern Sky to spot the first sliver of the moon appearing after a New Moon. Once multiple witnesses have spotted it then they can set the calender for that month. Rosh Hashanah is called "the day that no man knows" because they cannot set the exact date of the day until the Moon is confirmed.

When Yeshua (Jesus) taught in Matthew 24:36, that "no man knows the day or the hour", the implication in the Jewish mindset is that the day of His return will be on "Rosh Hashanah", the Jewish New Year.

Today is the last year of the Jewish Calender. Tomorrow is Rosh Hashanah. With the events of the world unfolding, each Rosh Hashanah should be viewed with expectation and inward contemplation of our relationship with Yeshua (Jesus). We should take an inward inventory and seek G_d's perspective concerning our spiritual state. Revelation chapter 3 is clear that of the 7 Churches mentioned, only 2 will be Raptured/Spared the Coming Judgment while the other 5 will predominately be left behind. Some of the people from the 5 churches will be counted with the 2 Righteous Churches but for the most part the churches will be left to face the 7 year tribulation period with the rest of the World.

I am not predicting that the Trumpet will blow in the Heavens tomorrow but I am stating that Tomorrow could be the day. If so let it be.
