19 T’rumah – Day 5
Sh’moth 26:31-37
“And you shall make a veil of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen, the work of a skilled workman, made with keruḇim.
“And you shall put it on the four columns of acacia wood overlaid with gold, their hooks of gold, upon four sockets of silver.
“And you shall hang the veil from the hooks, and shall bring the ark of the Witness there, behind the veil. And the veil shall make a separation for you between the Set-apart and the Most Set-apart Place.
“And you shall put the lid of atonement upon the ark of the Witness in the Most Set-apart Place.
“And you shall set the table outside the veil, and the lampstand opposite the table on the side of the Dwelling Place toward the south, and put the table on the north side.
“And you shall make a covering for the door of the Tent, of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen, made by a weaver.
“And you shall make for the covering five columns of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, their hooks of gold, and you shall cast five sockets of bronze for them.

Tehillah 81 - Day 5 (Yom Chamishy)
Shout for joy to Elohim our strength; Raise a shout to the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ.
Lift up a song and beat the tambourine, The pleasant lyre and with the harp.
Blow a shophar in the New moon, in the covering for the day of our festival.
For this is a law for Yisra’ěl, And a judgment of the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ.
He appointed it in Yehosěph for a witness, When He went throughout the land of Mitsrayim; I heard a language that I did not know.
He says, “I removed his shoulder from the burden; His hands were freed from the baskets.
“You called in distress, and I rescued you; I answered you in the covering of thunder; I proved you at the waters of Meriḇah. Selah.
“Hear, O My people, and let Me warn you, O Yisra’ěl, if you would listen to Me!
“Let there be no strange mighty one among you, And do not bow down to a foreign mighty one.
“I am YHWH your Elohim, Who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim; Open your mouth wide, and I fill it.
“But My people did not listen to My voice, And Yisra’ěl would not submit to Me.
“So I gave them over to their own stubborn heart, To walk in their own counsels.
“O, if My people had listened to Me, Yisra’ěl would walk in My ways, I would subdue their enemies at once, And turn My hand against their adversaries!
“Those who hate YHWH would cringe before Him; And their time of punishment be forever.
“He would feed them with the finest of wheat; And with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”

Original Hebrew Scripture from Daniel 9
"Not on our righteousnesses do we let fall our supplications before thy face, but on thy mercies abundant."
לֹא עַל־צִדְקֹתֵינוּ אֲנַחְנוּ מַפִּילִים תַּחֲנוּנֵינוּ לְפָנֶיךָ כִּי עַל־רַחֲמֶיךָ הָרַבִּים
(Looks like the sun is in my eyes - oh well!)
Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.
John 5:28-29
This will be a resurrection for both the good and the evil. It's what happens after the resurrection that counts. Beyond "in or out", we will not be judged on our beliefs or attitudes, but on our deeds.
And he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
John 5:27
Only a son of David has authority to judge Israel. Only a son of Adam has authority to judge mankind. Only a Son of God has authority to judge all beings. #yeshua is all of the above.
Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.
John 5:25
Although it's true that those who have died physically will one day be called out of the grave, that's not what Yeshua was talking about here. These are the spiritually dead who will hear the Gospel, believe, and repent. Then they will be reborn spiritually.
