"What Is The Days of Awe - Yamim Noraim?"


~ May You Be Inscribed/Sealed/Blessed (Baruch) ~

"Hear (Shema), O Israel (Yisrael): The LORD (Elohim Aleph-Tav) our [YHWH], The LORD [Elohim Aleph-Tav] is one (echad); and you shall love the LORD [Elohim Aleph-Tav] your [YHWH] with all your heart (lev), with all your soul, with all your mind, with all your strength." (Deut. 6:4-5, Mark 12:29)


Q. What Is Yamim Noraim About?
(In the seventh month, in the first day... Levitcus 23:24)

  • The "Feast of Trumpets" / "Day of Remembrance" (ראש השנה) is a "Holy Annual Feast" and is very special to [YHWH]. It is a time for reflection, repentance and personal examination of lives since last "Feast of Trumpets"; a (Holy Convocation) unto [YHWH]. "Feast of Trumpets" takes place once a year during the 7th month; on the first day of the month (new moon) and occurs nine days before "Yom Kippur" (Day of Atonement). "Feast of Trumpets" and "Yom Kippur" are both known as the "Yamim Nora’im", which means the "Days of Awe"; and are often referred to as the "High Holy Days". During "Feast of Trumpets" (ראש השנה); Yahweh's Saints embark upon the serious task, of examining their lives and repenting for any wrongs they have committed. This process of repentance is called (teshuvah). Yahweh's Saints are encouraged to make amends with anyone they have wronged or believe have wronged them. In this way "Days of Awe" is all about making peace in the body of [Yeshua] / "Mishpacha" (family) and striving to be a better person. We should strive to "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see (HaShem)." Yahweh's Saints believe that God [YHWH] is a compassionate and just God/Elohim [YHWH] and that He will accept their prayers for forgiveness when one truly repents (teshuvah). Let's get right with [YHWH]; if we haven't already and let's do it "NOW"!!! Amein. (Leviticus 23:23-25, Psalm 103: 2-3, Ezekiel 45:20, Hebrews 12:14).
