We find in the Torah how the elements of the tabernacle were to be made.  This included the menorah which from the Greek translation is a candlestick.   This candlestick or menorah is to be made of pure gold that is to be hammered and has a total of 7 lights.  One on the shaft that is the main structure of the menorah and three branched coming out of opposite sides.  Another reason this light would be required in the tabernacle is that there was no access to natural light from the outside that would give light to the priests going about the duties of the ministry in the tabernacle.
The  Torah teaches us Israel is to be a light unto the nations.  Because this was not done, many of the nations did not receive this instruction.  Thus He called out those to go to teach the nations His principles.  This light is illuminated by the testimony of the edah, the witnessing army.  The term sons of light that Paul refers to is the light, the Torah and Torah is light.  It is this light that is to guide every act of our lives.  How is this portrayed as Christians?  A I love Jesus bumper sticker? Attending services regularly? Going out to tell everyone about Jesus being the light of the world?  We have to understand that those who oppose the Torah and uphold Jesus, are not able to actually shine the light of truth outside the Torah.  There can not be a separation of the Word of God made flesh and His word!!  Having only one and disregarding the other still is missing the whole point.  There is an belief by the ancient Hebrew sages that the letters of the Hebrew alef beit must be spoken if not the Earth would be consumed in a fervent heat in the last days.  As we can see now with all of this push back on the return to the original intent and original language.  This light of understanding that we have received is to be shared.  With the Chanukah coming up on the evening of December 16 the 9 light menorah is to observe the miracle of the oil lasting for 8 days while more oil is being prepared.  This observance is to stand against those who would come in to change the practices that Yahweh instructs us to do.  Will we stand up for the right way taught from Elohim above?  Or allow the other culture to wash over you and all that you have been taught?  Fiveamprayer will you be found standing alone according to His purpose and design instead of standing with those who would trample all over Yahweh's word and instruction for us?!  To listen to this teaching again click here.
