I don’t understand.
They are putting a red cow in the temple?
I don’t know this part of Judaism.
End times.
“I don’t know this part of Judaism.”
Me neither, but it’s important, that much I do know.
Ashes of a Red Heifer needed for purification...
...They may rebuild...a building...
but not needed...
Jesus the Christ already has a lot of building blocks
in HIS Temple NOW. A few or a lot more...
probably to be added...
“How Long?” Revelation...no man knows.
PS to my post to you, but I’m thinking these folks are trying to immanentize the eschaton and I don’t think you can really do that.
Red Heifer? Communist cow? Bolshevik Bovine?
Num 19:2 This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke:
Num 19:3 And ye shall give her unto Eleazar the priest, that he may bring her forth without the camp, and one shall slay her before his face:
Num 19:4 And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times:
Num 19:5 And one shall burn the heifer in his sight; her skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:
Num 19:6 And the priest shall take cedar wood, and hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
Num 19:7 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp, and the priest shall be unclean until the even.
Num 19:8 And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even.
Num 19:9 And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for sin.
Num 19:10 And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among them, for a statute for ever.
A red Heifer. It was essential for sanctifying the temple for worship. A heifer is a female cow. There has not been one since the 2nd temple was destroyed. Hence, no way to sanctify the temple if they did build one.
The perfectly red is a symbol of the perfect blood. In shedding the blood of the red heifer and consuming her completely with fire and her ashes sprinkled upon the temple site, the Jews connect to Messiah’s empowerment ... they believe.
