So YHWH said to Moses, "Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him."
Numbers 27:18
The #holyspirit was active long before Pentecost, just like the #torah existed long before Sinai.

From This Week’s Torah Portion:
“And it shall be, because you hear these judgments, and shall guard and do them, that YHWH your Elohim shall guard with you the covenant and the mercy which He swore to your fathers, and shall love you and bless you and increase you, and shall bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock, in the land of which He swore to your fathers to give you. Blessed are you above all peoples – there is not going to be a barren man or a barren woman among you or among your livestock. And YHWH shall turn away from you all sickness and put on you none of the evil diseases of Mitsrayim which you have known, but He shall put them on all those who hate you.
And you shall consume all the peoples whom YHWH your Elohim is delivering over to you – your eye shall not pardon them. And do not serve their mighty ones, for that is a snare to you. When you say in your heart, ‘These nations are greater than I, I am unable to drive them out,’ do not be afraid of them. Remember well what YHWH your Elohim did to Pharaoh and to all Mitsrayim, the great trials which your eyes saw, and the signs and the wonders, the strong hand and the outstretched arm, by which YHWH your Elohim brought you out. YHWH your Elohim does so to all the peoples of whom you are afraid. And YHWH your Elohim also sends The Hornet among them until those who are left, who hide themselves from you, are destroyed. Do not be afraid of them, for YHWH your Elohim, the great and awesome Ěl, is in your midst.”
From This Week’s Torah Portion:
“Mankind does not live by bread alone, but by Every Word that comes from the mouth of YHWH.”
“One indeed believes to eat all food, but he who is weak eats only vegetables. He that eats, let him not despise him who does not eat, and he that does not eat, let him not judge him who eats, for Elohim received him. Who are you that judges another’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. But he shall be made to stand, for Elohim is able to make him stand. One indeed judges one day (of weekly fasting) above another, another judges every day alike. Let each one be completely persuaded in his own mind. He who minds the day, minds it to YHWH. And he who does not mind the day, to YHWH he does not mind it. He who eats, eats to YHWH, for he gives Elohim thanks. And he who does not eat, to YHWH he does not eat, and gives Elohim thanks. For not one of us lives to himself, and not one dies to himself. For both, if we live, we live unto the Master, and if we die, we die unto the Master. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Master’s. For unto this Messiah died and rose and lived again, to rule over both the dead and the living. But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you despise your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Messiah. For it has been written, As I live, says YHWH, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to Elohim. Each one of us, therefore, shall give account of himself to Elohim. Therefore, let us not judge one another any longer, but rather judge this, not to put an obstacle or a stumbling-block in our brother’s way. I know and am persuaded in the Master Yeshua that none at all is common of itself. But to him who regards whatever to be common, to him it is common. And if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not by your food ruin the one for whom Messiah died. Do not then allow your excellence to be spoken of as evil. For the kingdom of Elohim is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Set-apart Spirit. For he who is serving Messiah in these matters is well-pleasing to Elohim and approved by men. So, then, let us pursue the matters of peace and the matters for building up one another. Do not destroy the work of Elohim for the sake of food. All indeed are clean, but evil to that man who eats so as to cause stumbling. It is excellent not to eat meat or drink wine, nor to do whatever by which your brother stumbles. Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before Elohim. Blessed is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves. But he who doubts, if he eats, is condemned, because it is not of faith, and all that is not of faith is sin.”
“Food is for the stomach and the stomach for foods – but Elohim shall destroy both it and them.”
