Jerusalem almost 2000 years ago, mourning, Shabbat during Pesach feast: crown of thorns instead of roses
They will give their scent again, for all mankind, and especially for you. To pause, to bear with oneself, in His peace (Shabbat) to find oneself, whom do I follow, Mohammed or Luther – no matter whom, if it is not the LORD, have the consequences not always been devastating, deadly for every Jew, especially the ONE? … To get still at Pesach means, to accept consciously the Jew and His Father, to receive Him inside of you. Move out from your bondage, disassociate completely from an attitude of mind that lifts itself above the Jewish people and repent yourself – freedom! Then the shady veils of your darkness fall in a glassy see of flowers before His throne of Grace, arise, shine, you will be able to keep the laws of your Father again with joy and you will see Zion, and you will arrive to His time of the feast, when HIS foot will touch the Mount of Olives and returns in Glory.
Hag Pesach Sameach and Shabbat Shalom!
