If it is the exact same name, even in Greek (<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Joshua in Greek is also Iesous<\/span>) &#8211; then why use two different two names in the bible translations? History tellers would explain Iesous was translated to Jesus in english, but when did they decide <strong>Iesous could also mean Joshua<\/strong>? This is why we should be careful with accepting english words, and do some effort in researching the original languages used, especially starting with Hebrew.<\/p><p>It is interesting to learn also what other languages around the world call Yeshua, it ranges from <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Jesus, Chesus, Isuthi, Jisas, Yesu, Jezi, Jesuh, Iesu, Gesu, Yeso, Ihu, Isa, Gesus and many more.<\/span> There are however a lot of languages, especially african languages that use &#8220;<strong>Yesu<\/strong>&#8220;, which is really the closes one to the original. Some languages like greek, does not have the alphabet letters like <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">&#8220;Y&#8221; or &#8220;SH&#8221;, but instead changes the Y to OU and the SH to

Who gave the nations before him, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">And made\u00a0<em>him<\/em> rule over kings<\/span>?&#8230;&#8221;\u00a0<\/p><p>One of the most amazing bible verses we have, is from Creation, Genesis 1:14 says &#8220;Then Elohim said, \u201cLet there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong> let them be for signs and seasons<\/strong><\/span>, and for days and years&#8221;. Translators use the word &#8220;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>seasons<\/em><\/span>&#8220;, but the actual Hebrew word is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueletterbible.org\/lexicon\/h4150\/nkjv\/wlc\/0-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Moedim H4150 &#8211; m\u00f4\u02bf\u0113\u1e0f<\/a>, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">which means<\/span> an <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>appointed place and an appointed time!<\/strong><\/span> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">A signal, a sacred meeting or congregation<\/span>. The sun, moon and stars are used in all of <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">YHWH&#8217;s appointed 7 meetings\/appointments\/festivals<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shalom-everlasting.com\/staging\/scripture-daily-reading-plan\/leviticus-20-23\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">(click here to learn more about the 7 meetings every year, from Leviticus 23)<\/a><\/p><p>Here with Yeshua&#8217;s birth, the promised Messiah, another signal is given from heaven for YHWH&#8217;s appointed time. Now today, there are much <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>speculation on when exactly was this event<\/em><\/span>. Some say it was when planets aligned (Jupiter, Saturn, sun and moon), which occured both in 6BC and 4BC. Well.. this cannot be correct, as the event talks about one star, and it was not an alignment, especially with planets\/stars and sun\/moon. Also, planetary conjunctions lasts for about a day, and then they drift &#8220;apart&#8221; &#8211; they don&#8217;t move together.<\/p><p>The story of the Magi, who travelled from the east, probably came from Arabia, which was Babylonian area before. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">These Magi would have had a history with the Jews\/Israels and knew about their prophecies<\/span>. Also, <strong>frankincense and myrrh are mostly harvested from trees coming from the Arabian<\/strong>, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>east side of Israel<\/strong><\/span>. For these Magi to have reached Jerusalem from Arabia, would have take about 1-2 months in travelling time. Which means, the star must have appeared and finally ended in a range of 2 months.<\/p><p>Another thing to consider with the dates, is that Herod died in 4BC. Matthew 2:1 says Herod was king when Yeshua was born, and after Yeshua was born they fleed to Egypt for some time until Herod died (Matt 2:19). This means <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Yeshua had to be born anything around 5BC and earlier<\/span>.<\/p><p>The only explanation for this star that moves over a couple of months, is a <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Comet<\/strong><\/span>. Comets can be visible anything from a few days to even over a year. There are evidence in Chinese records today talking about a <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>&#8220;broom star&#8221; that was visible for 70 days<\/strong><\/span>, in <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">5BC<\/span> around <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">March and April<\/span>. Also, it is recorded that <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">the star moved from the east, towards the south-west towards Jerusalem.<\/span> (70 days is also a significant number). Matthew 2:1 says the &#8220;wise men from the east arrived in Jerusalem&#8221;, and <strong>then they enquired where is the king of the Jews?<\/strong> At this point, Herod knew there was a prophecy, and he actually asks the chief priests <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">where the Messiah is supposed to be born<\/span> (Matt 2:4)! They tell him in Bethlehem, so <strong>Herod points the wise men to Bethlehem<\/strong> (Matt 2:7-8). The wise men found that the star actually stopped right on top of where Yeshua was born.<\/p><p>In the story of Yeshua&#8217;s birth, we read in Luke 2:8-20, that there were shepherds in the field. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Shepherds do go out at night, only during spring and summer months<\/span> to <strong>protect the flocks<\/strong> from predators and thieves, especially as it is a <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>lambing season<\/strong><\/span>. Again, a &#8220;lambing season&#8221; would be the perfect season for the Lamb to be born. March and April is <strong>lambing\/spring season<\/strong> in Jerusalem, as well as when the <strong>new year<\/strong> begins for Israel, which all fall together with <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Passover<\/strong><\/span>. December and January is mid winter and extremely cold at night. Daytime alone temperatures are around 5-13 degrees celcius (40-55 fahrenheit), so there is no way the shepherds were out in December month. It is also interesting to note that all of YHWH&#8217;s appointed times happen <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">between March\/April until September\/October<\/span>.<\/p><p>It is interesting to note also, that <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>nowhere in Scripture anyone&#8217;s birthdays are celebrated<\/em><\/span>. Even with this comet, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">there is no one exact date that can be pinpointed<\/span>, only a period. We know it was around March\/April spring and new year for Israel in 5BC. The only time birthdays are mentioned in Scripture, is with Egypts&#8217; Pharaoh in Genesis 40:20 and King Herod in Matthew 14:6 (a different Herod from when Yeshua was born, Herod the great and his son Herod Antipas). Matthew 14 recalls the story of Herod Antipas, and how he had John killed on his birthday. On the Pharaoh&#8217;s birthday, he had the chief baker killed. In those years, birthdays were celebrated for kings who believed they were like gods, and killing was a normal activity. The only Scripture we have about the day of our birth is in Ecclesiastes 7:1 which says, &#8220;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">the day of your death is better than the day of your birth&#8221;<\/span>. The origin of celebrating birthdays do have a very dark meaning and history. Today everybody celebrates their birthdays, but we should be careful not to celebrate ourselves or the day we were born, but rather to be thankful for each year we have, and to use our years in order that we can celebrate what we have reached at the end of our lives. We are also not commanded to celebrate Yeshua&#8217;s birth, and Yeshua also never talked about His birth. The <strong>gospels were written as proof of His birth and prophecies being fulfilled<\/strong>.<\/p><p>What we do know, is that Yeshua was probably born around Israel&#8217;s new year in March\/April &#8211; which is the exact time for <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Passover (the 1st Appointed Time\/Moedim), and a new lamb to be offered as a sign of YHWH&#8217;s covenant and protection.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details

style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Herod the great and Pharaoh<\/span> played the same role in <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">killing the baby boys<\/span>. <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Moses was the leader and shepherd for Israel<\/span><\/strong> out of Egypt to the promised land, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">teaching the Laws and 7 Appointed Times (Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, Shavuot, Trumpets, Atonement and Tabernacle\/Sukkot).<\/span> <strong>Yeshua is the shepherd for all out of this world to a new promised land<\/strong>, also <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">teaching and giving understanding about the laws, and fulfilling the Appointed Times<\/span>.<\/p><p><strong>Egypt symbolize bondage and oppression, enslavement and liberation, a world FULL of many gods, a place of power and riches to distract and entice<\/strong>. The egyptians hated the Hebrews, unless they acted like an egyptian. The same rule counts for living in the world, if you act like the rest around you, they love. Yeshua said in John 15:19, &#8220;If you were of the world, the world would love its own. <strong>Yet because you are not of the world<\/strong>, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.&#8221; Egypt is mentioned in the new testament by Jude 1:5, &#8220;But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, that YHWH, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe&#8221; and in Revelation 11:8, &#8220;And their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt&#8221;.<\/p><p>There are many old testament scriptures about Egypt, where YHWH even declares that <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Egypt will be blessed and become a people who worships Him<\/span>, like in Isaiah 19:18-25, &#8220;Then YHWH will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know YHWH in that day, and will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to YHWH and perform it.&#8221; The previous verse says, &#8220;He will send them a Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them&#8221;. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Did you know, that most of Egypt believed in Yeshua and most converted to christianity?<\/strong><\/span> They were called the <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Copts<\/span><\/strong>. Following the Arab conquest of Egypt in the 7th century, the term &#8220;Copt&#8221; became associated with Egypt&#8217;s native population, who were <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">majority Christian at the time<\/span>. Over time, the term &#8220;Copt&#8221; came to represent Egyptian Christians as distinct from the rest of the Egyptians who had embraced Islam since the 7th century. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Today the Copts constitute about 10% of Egypt and &#8220;Copts&#8221; refer primarily to the Coptic Orthodox Church, who are direct descendants of the ancient Egyptians.<\/span><\/p><p>The greek word for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueletterbible.org\/lexicon\/g125\/nkjv\/tr\/0-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Egypt is Aigyptos G125 &#8211; aigyptos<\/a>, where the Hebrew word is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueletterbible.org\/lexicon\/h4714\/nkjv\/wlc\/0-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Mitzrayim H4714 &#8211; mi\u1e63rayim<\/strong><\/a>. The word has some similarities to <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">water and heaven<\/span> in Hebrew. <strong>Water is mayim<\/strong> and <strong>heaven is shamayim<\/strong>. Think back to <em>creation, and picture these words and their meanings<\/em>. The &#8220;<strong>esh<\/strong>&#8221; sound in heaven\/shamayim means <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Fire<\/strong><\/span>. The &#8220;-<strong>\u0101yim<\/strong>&#8221; means <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">double<\/span><\/strong>. So you have water below, fire above and there is two paths. Either one can see it as the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">physical and spiritual<\/span>. Or the path of the world and the path of YHWH. As a matter of fact, the direct <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">translation of Egypt in Hebrew says, &#8220;double straits&#8221;.<\/span> <strong>A Strait is a narrow passage of water.<\/strong> But in Egypt (the world), you are given two straits\/paths to choose from. Yeshua said in Matthew 7:13-14, &#8220;<strong>Enter by the strait gate;<\/strong> for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. <strong>Because strait is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it<\/strong>.&#8221; Most translations today use the word &#8220;narrow&#8221;, but the original greek word is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueletterbible.org\/lexicon\/g4728\/nkjv\/tr\/0-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stenos G4728 &#8211; stenos<\/a>, meaning strait. Stenos or stenosis specifically have to do with <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">fluid\/water where the path forms a narrowing<\/span>. As a matter of fact, the &#8220;<strong>mitz<\/strong>&#8221; part in the Egypts hebrew word Mitzrayim, <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">means squeezing or pressure<\/span><\/strong>, like squeezing juice out of a fruit. It also has to do with the <strong>law and commandments, as the word Mitzvah<\/strong> means commandments. When the Jews have their &#8220;bar mitzvahs&#8221;, when a boy reaches adulthood, the word means &#8220;<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>son of the commandment<\/strong><\/span>&#8220;. The root hebrew word also for Mitzrayim is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueletterbible.org\/lexicon\/h4692\/nkjv\/wlc\/0-1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Masor H4692 &#8211; m\u0101\u1e63\u00f4r<\/a>, meaning siege-<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">enclosure, siege, entrenchment, besieged, to be bound, distress, adversary<\/span>. That is how it feels to live in the world\/egypt, but not be of the world &#8211; you feel under siege, entrenched, distressed and an
