Creation on Elul day 25!!!


Genesis 1

We are walking in today:  Creation on Elul day 25!!!

Witness create throughout the Bible:  H1254 bara'--to create, shape, form, fashion, create (always with God as subject)

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning, God created H1254 the heaven and the earth.
The Torah testifies.........……
 Genesis 1:27 So God created H1254 man in his own image, in the image of God created H1254 he him; male and female created H1254 he them.

The prophets proclaim..................
 Isaiah 41:20 That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created H1254 it.

The writings bear witness............
 Psalm 148:5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created. H1254
Isaiah 45:12 I have made the earth, and created H1254 man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.


In popular Judaism thought, in regards to Rosh Hashanah as the date of the Creation of the universe by The Most High, but the Midrash notes that it occurred six days earlier, on the 25th of Elul, when The Most High created the Divine light by saying, “Let there be light” (Gen. 1:3). The sages reasoned that since the gematria for the word yehi, “let there be”, is 25, and man was created on Rosh Hashanah, the first work of creation actually began on Elul 25 of the Hebrew calendar.

According to Hebrew tradition, this first “Friday” of creation was the first Rosh Hashanah, the “head of the year”, since it represents the day that the Most High began to rule as King of the Universe. When Adam first opened his eyes and human consciousness was born, he immediately understood that The Most High created all things, including himself. According to the midrash, Adam’s first words were, “The Lord is King for ever and ever” (Exod. 15:18). The Most High then said, “Now the whole world will know that I am King,” and He was very pleased. This was the moment of creation, when the Most High saw all that He had made “and found it very good” (Gen. 1:31). The birthday of humanity is therefore the Coronation Day for the King of the Universe. Psalm 47 celebrates the Kingship of  the Most High that mentions the “shout” and shofar blast of the Most High’s coronation.

After The Most High judged Adam and Eve, He compassionately gave them skin of a sacrificial lamb as their covering (Gen 3:21). This First Sacrifice, offered by the Hand of the Most High Himself, foreshadowed the coming Sacrifice of the Lamb of the Most High who was slain “from the foundation of the world” (1 Pet. 1:20). On the very first day of mankind’s creation, then, The Most High initiated His plan of redemption and salvation through Yeshua as the divine Light of the world.

“Great is teshuvah, for it preceded the Creation of the World, as it says, ‘Before the mountains came into being, You reduced Man to nothingness, and said ‘Return’ (Psalm 90:2-3).” This idea suggests that the Most High created humanity with the intent of ultimately revealing Himself as Redeemer and Savior. Therefore we see the Lamb of the Most High slain “from the foundation of the world” (1 Pet. 1:20) restoring the kingdom that was prepared for those chosen to be redeemed “before the foundation of the world” (Eph. 1:4, Matt. 25:34). The Book of Revelation likewise mentions the Book of Life of the Lamb that was slain “from the foundation of the world” (Rev. 13:8, 17:8).

Shema Selah the Most High created the world on Elul 25, what is being created in you today?
