Passover 2015 and that first and dreadful night 3,500 years ago: the significance is astounding

by Tom Brennan,

The Almighty moves in mysterious ways. The corporate media is a-Twitter about the agreement allegedly concluded in Switzerland about Iran and the secret nuclear weapon they are developing. The White House trumpeted success and Tehran promptly said foul. Iran got all they wanted and never signed a thing. Yet, the surprising actions by Israel’s former traditional opponents led by Saudi Arabia have sent an even stronger message to Iran, one of resolve and enlightened self-interest not appeasement. That this is all occurring within the time The Almighty called “Passover” should not surprise anyone.

Over 3,500 years ago a former friend of the Hebrews turned on them and made them into a tribute people. Their previous friendship and unique status within Egypt was turned upside down and they became work levies, a people with no rights, captives within a land they once shared as close allies and friends with the most powerful empire at the time. The Pharaoh wanted their numbers controlled and ordered that male children be killed. One child was hidden among the enemies and grew to live among them as one of their princes, knowing their ways and way of thought. This child was Moses.

Moses was made to know the G-d of his fathers and one day was caused to flee the power and riches of nobility and become a shepherd under the patronage of a priest of Midian, not a fellow Hebrew. This priest became a member of that people. This priest was Yitro (Jethro).

The new nation chosen by The Almighty returned to the land from which Jacob and his sons had left and retook it as they were told. Over the centuries their obedience ebbed and flowed yet continued. At one Passover the Messiah completed the satisfaction of the covenant that had been broken. His death was seen by most, including His own chosen men as failure and they hid from the expected retribution from His enemies. Instead one morning after Shabbat, his temporary grave was found empty and a new covenant was begun continuing the one that had been healed by His death. His name is Yeshua (Jesus).

So the fact that all these pronouncements, denouncements and outright frauds are coming at Passover and Easter are even more significant than we think. Nothing new will happen in the geopolitical maneuvering and manipulating by the descendants of Pharaoh, Haman and Hitler. America and Europe are abandoning Israel and former enemies are realistically accepting Israel’s value as a resolute and powerful friend. Israel has been hidden in the bullrushes and now has influenced hostile neighbors to a point of grudging respect and tolerance. Who can count the mysterious ways involved here ? The real ending and triumph have been written in the Bible and will occur when The Almighty has decided it will happen. The outcome is a sure thing and the faithful will share the triumph of the truth. Israel will endure and only those who share in the battle will share in the victory. Blessed Passover and Happy Easter ! Stand with Israel.
