REBUILDING THE 3RD JEWISH TEMPLE A study by Gavin Finley MD endtimepilgrim.org

---

Jerusalem has seen two temples built on the Temple Mount. The first was built by King Solomon close to 3,000 years ago. It was destroyed by the armies of Nebudchadnezzar in 586 B.C. The second temple was built under Zerubbabel during the years 520-516 B.C. This was destroyed by the Romans in 70 A.D. Since that time there has been a deep desire among many observant Jews both out in the Diaspora and back in Eretz Israel to see the temple rebuilt.

At the present time the construction of the Third Temple is quite impossible from a political perspective. The Temple Mount area is under rather strict Islamic control. But the prophetic scriptures indicate that the temple will indeed be rebuilt. We can only assume that those sad conditions we see and take for granted today will change quite dramatically in the future. At some point there will be a new peace on the Temple Mount. And in this peace the Third Temple will be constructed.

What power will have come onto the scene to change the status quo here? What national or international entity will have done this? Well at present we do not know. But one thing we can say with some assurance. At some future time the Temple Mount in Jerusalem will be secured. And Middle East peace will be guaranteed by some very significant power. And that power will most certainly not be an Islamic one.

BUILDING THE THIRD TEMPLE WILL REQUIRE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
AND THAT PEACE WILL PROBABLY ONLY COME AFTER A DESTRUCTIVE FUTURE WAR.

Just how will this Middle East peace be achieved? What will have happened to suddenly change the political equation and thus open the way to allow the temple to be rebuilt? A new "prince" will have come into power. But who will this man be? And in whose name will he come? Will he turn out to be the peacemaker or power broker spoken of by the prophet Daniel? Shall we come face to face with the long awaited peacemaker of Daniel 9:27, the one who is prophesied to "confirm the covenant with many" for a period of seven years?

These are awesome issues to consider. The prophecy we are considering here is extremely important. Daniel 9:27 is the most significant prophecy yet to unfold. It is the next big event to pop up on the calendar. This extraordinary future peace accord must be signed and ratified. When that happens the trumpets will be blowing, some in celebration, and some in warning. Some students of Bible prophecy believe that there is some good evidence that the peace covenant of Dan.9:27 will occur right on some future Jewish new year. And thus the Feast of Trumpets will come into its New Covenant fulfillment. It seems that the Day of Atonement seven years later marks out with total precision the 2550 days that will encompass Daniel's 70th Week. It is an exact fit!

Is this just a coincidence? Probably not.

This epic future peace in the Middle East would certainly fit the "blowing of trumpets" scenario Moses spoke about in Leviticus 23. The Feast of Trumpets is the first of the Fall Feasts. These three are yet to be fulfilled in the New Covenant. They are also the final three feasts of the seven, (numbers 5, 6 and 7), of the Seven Feasts of Israel. In fact the feast characterized by Moses simply as "a blowing of trumpets", Rosh Hashanah, or the "head of the year", is the very next feast to come up to fulfillment. So we can be sure that this Jewish holy day in some future Jewish new year will certainly hatch out some epic blockbuster event into holy history. This future peace covenant will involve the sovereignty of Israel and western nations. So it will not just be some unobserved political wheeler dealing done in secret or some hidden diplomatic initiative such as we saw with the so called "Oslo accords". Nor will it merely be a photo-op with a handshake and something signed on a piece of paper such as we saw with the Camp David peace initiative between Israel's prime minister and the PLO leader. This coming seven year peace treaty, the "covenant with many" of Daniel 9:27, will not be just political theatrics or a hyped up event with no meaningful or lasting peace. We saw a demonstration of this sort of empty political showcasing with so called "PLO peace agreements" signed on the White House lawn. This was not worth the paper it was written on. The Oslo accords similarly failed to bring in the desired peace in the Middle East. In fact matters went from bad to worse.

This future seven year covenant will be different. The terminus of the "Road Map to Peace" will be on the front pages of our newspapers and on Fox and CNN cable news. This seven year peace deal will be the genuine article. The covenant will fire the starting gun on a seven year history spawning earthshaking political events of Biblical proportions. When this covenant is signed and confirmed there will be major international consequences. Great and awesome events will start to happen as the god of Israel resumes His determined covenant dealings with all the Judeo-Christian and heathen Gentile people in the nations. This is clearly laid out for us in Daniel 9:27.

So just how will this future mega-dealer have managed to pull off this epic Middle East peace treaty? It seems that this "confirmation of the covenant" will in fact be the completion and ratification of the very same "Peace Process" we have been seeing develop in recent years. The peace will finally be nailed down.

How, and why, will this have happened?

Well this is an interesting question. It is entirely possible that this future prophesied peace treaty will be brokered in the aftermath of a major future Middle East conflict. This coming war may turn out to be be a very destructive one. And history demonstrates a recurring pattern. Great treaties do not happen in peacetime just by some monetary coaxing under the table by the superpower of the day. Real and significant peace treaties usually follow wars.

The future war that leads to this upcoming Middle East peace may surprise and shock us. It may even involve the unleashing of nuclear weapons.

This would then present a pivotal moment in history.
The international community would be screaming,
"Someone do something!"

Enter then the peacemaker and "prince" of Daniel 9:27
And the false messiah of John 5:43.

Who would be the players in this war? Israel has recently expressed concern that terrorist cells of Hamas and Hezbollah are holed up in Damascus. This is very close to Jerusalem. The city of Damascus is the oldest city in the world. And it has never been destroyed in all its history. But there is a prophecy awaiting fulfillment that involves this old city. The prophet Isaiah spoke of the city of Damascus becoming a "heap of rubble". (Isa.17) That being the case, we might do well to keep an eye on this developing situation with terrorist cells and WMD in this southern city of Syria right near the Israeli border.

One thing we can say with complete assurance. If the Third Temple is to be built then the balance of power will have had to have been changed in a dramatic way. Something big will have to happen to break the present Islamic hold on the Temple Mount and allow the foundations to be laid for the Third Temple. Because the present situation offers no hope at all. Without the political status quo being overturned there can be no construction of the Third Temple.

THE PLACEMENT OF THE FUTURE TEMPLE ON THE TEMPLE MOUNT

As we consider the rebuilding of the Temple there is one more important question that must be addressed. Just where on the Temple Mount will the foundations of the Third Temple be laid? Will the Third Temple rise up right in the middle of the Temple Mount as many suppose? This would necessitate the removal or destruction of the Dome of the Rock. Of course this would be an earthshaking turn of events. The Dome is a revered Islamic site.
But will the Dome of the Rock be destroyed? And is its removal even necessary?

Just where did the original temple stand? Was it really in the center? Or was it situated to the north of the present location of the Dome of the Rock? Some Jewish authorities on the subject, such as Asher Kaufmann are saying precisely this. and they have excellent archaeological evidence to support this.

This is very interesting. It opens up the very real possibility that the Third Jewish Temple will be constructed on the north side of the Temple Mount.

So this now presents another interesting possibility. Could the Temple be rebuilt next to the Islamic Dome of the Rock? Could the Third Temple peacefully coexist with the Dome right next door to it? This would be very politically favorable to the sort of world peace our international leaders and ecumenists are looking for. It would reflect their effort to bring the three big mono-theistic religions of the world together. If such a plan was acted upon then the Temple Mount would look something like we see in the picture up above.

As we have previously stated, it seems that the Third Temple can only be built under the covering of an all encompassing world peace. This peace will most certainly involve Israel and her neighbors. It is a peace that we have not seen yet. Quite obviously it is out there in the future. Because all attempts by the Jewish 'Temple Mount Faithful' to place a foundation stone for the temple on the temple mount have incited Islamic rioting. When Ariel Sharon decided to take a stroll on the Temple Mount some years ago the result was a huge hue and cry throughout the Islamic world. The principalities and powers and the heathen nations were set off raging. (Psalm 2) In fact it started off a wave of terrorism that came to be known as "the intifada".

SIGNIFICANT AND LASTING PEACE TREATIES DO NOT
GENERALLY COME THROUGH PEACETIME DIPLOMACY.
RATHER, THEY USUALLY FOLLOW WARS.

So how will the peace necessary to allow this rebuilding come? Will it come after a future war? Will the radical fundamentalist Islamic powers currently ruling the Temple Mount be defeated in this coming war by a combined Judeo-Christian (anti-terror) alliance?

During the 1967 Six Day War the Israelis fought their way into Jerusalem and came close to taking the Temple Mount. They made it as far as the Western Wall. And that is where they stopped.

This was a pivotal moment in holy history.
At that awesome moment they blew the shofar.
The Temple Mount was just a few meters away.
They were so close.

How about next time?
Will the Israelis make it all the way to the top?
Will Jewish forces end up capturing the Temple Mount?

If they do then another question arises. Just who will then step in as peacemaker? Who will see that the spoils are divided in a way that is considered equitable for that point in history?

Clearly the temple rebuilding project and the world at large is crying out for "peace and security". Will it come in by a peace treaty brokered by an emerging global peacemaker? If history does call for such a man to arise on the stage he will be a man of some stature and capability. He will have to be a convincing treaty broker and and a capable crisis manager. Will such a peacemaker arise in that future day? Who will be the one who picks up the pieces after that future war?

Of course there is more to the story. The jigsaw puzzle of Bible prophecy is coming together in many areas. Yes, early on a "prince" will appear on the stage of history. At the beginning he will take the spotlight in his 'peacemaker' or "Mr. Niceguy" role with a harlot religious consort. But this global power broker will not remain just as a peacemaker. He will have just secured for himself enormous international power. Perhaps sovereign power will be given him to disarm the world of weapons of mass destruction. The world desperately longs for this security.

But the plot thickens. And the Holy Scriptures are clear on the future actions of this "man of sin". He will go on later to break the covenant he has just made. Midway through the seven years he will commit abominations in the rebuilt temple and be revealed as someone less than benevolent. (SeeDan.9:27 part B) He will turn out to be none other than the coming false Messiah or Antichrist. p Moses gave a warning of this. In the Song of Moses he spoke of a great latter day trial and tribulation for the covenant people of God. And Jesus Himself warned that His people would accept another "prince". This pretender will come not in the Father's name but "in his own name". (John 5:43)

A DIVIDED TEMPLE MOUNT?
BOTH A JEWISH TEMPLE AND AN ISLAMIC DOME SIDE BY SIDE?

Let us look further at the details concerning the future placement of that Third Temple on the Temple Mount. We have good archaeological evidence that the former Jewish temple was built north of where the Dome of the Rock is presently situated. In fact the Dome of the Spirits, a small cupola, is said to be right over the location of the Holy of Holies. This is well to the north of the Dome.

And here is another important issue. The cupola is in direct alignment with the Eastern Gate. This fact along with some mounting archaeological evidence would seem to indicate that the former (second) Temple was situated not in the center of the temple mount at all but rather on the north side of temple mount. This is directly opposite the Eastern Gate.

This alignment of the Temple with the Eastern Gate would only be appropriate. If we think about it it has to be this way. The architectural layout of the temple would surely have been set up to allow the Messiah to come "straight up" through the eastern gate and into His Temple. He would enter the city and go straight into the temple without doing any turning left or "jigs" or "zig-zags" as he entered the temple mount on His way up into the temple.

Here is the issue. If the temple was in the center of the Temple Mount then Messiah would have to turn left upon entering the city. Turning left is a bad thing. It is just not good form for a returning King, let alone the Messiah of Israel. It simply would not do. It is, in fact, unthinkable. Surely Zerubbabel, (and Solomon before him), were mindful of this when the temple was designed. It was a magnificent Temple. And we can be sure that it was meticulously and tastefully laid out. YHVH God Himself was the true divine Architect. He guided King David as the king prepared for his son Solomon to build the temple. We can well assume that the former two temples were faithfully constructed by the builders according to the sacred blueprint of a holy and divine order. This would only be in keeping with the beauty and the centrality our Messiah most assuredly deserves.

As it happens, this northern site is being looked at by one of several Jewish groups who are working towards the rebuilding of the Hebrew Temple. The last temple, the second temple built by Zerubbabel, as later embellished by Herod. This second temple was destroyed by the Romans under Titus in 70 A.D..

As we look now at the present situation we see that the Dome of the Rock occupies the center of the Temple Mount. The future Third Temple could therefore be rebuilt to the north of the Dome and be on the same site as the former temple. There would be enough room to provide an acceptable easement between the two buildings. There would,in fact, be a clearance of 150 feet. This would allow the Dome to co-exist with the future Jewish Temple. It could be built to the north of the Dome of the Rock and straight opposite the Eastern Gate.

The good news, from a world peace perspective is that there is no necessity to destroy the Islamic holy place, the Dome of the Rock.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE TEMPLE MOUNT
IN THE ABRAHAMIC COVENANT.

If we think about it for a moment the Temple of YHVH is not just based on Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son. This act was a mirror of what God was doing on His side of the covenant. Abraham's willingness was indeed important. It was man's or Abraham's part of the Eternal Covenant. But it was not God's part of the Covenant. In the manner of covenants Abraham's part was an essential one. He showed a willingness to enter into a blood covenant with God. It was indeed essential for Abraham, as God's blood covenant partner, to be willing to sacrifice his son.

But there would be a greater reality. YHVH/God was Abraham's covenant partner. And He was taking the initiative in the covenant. And there on the Temple Mount YHVH-God was making another divine promise. God would provide Himself a Lamb.

YHVH would do the same for the family of Abraham as Abraham had shown himself willing to do for YHVH-God. He would "provide a sacrifice". YHVH God would offer up His only son. This would happen at Calvary 2,000 years later. At that time another son, like Isaac, carried the wood for His own sacrifice up the hill. The Son of God, carried a wooden cross up the hill to Golgotha. That cross would be the altar upon which the final Sacrifice would be made for the sins of the world.

These issues of blood covenant are not well understood by modern Christians in the west today. Even evangelicals, for the most part, do not understand the necessity of blood covenant witness. They do not understand the consequences of blood covenant Christianity. They do not think that it relates to their own New Covenant. But they are deluded. This is the nature of the relationship they presently have with Jesus Christ/Yeshua Hamashiach. They are in a blood covenant two-way relationship with Him as a bride to the Bridegroom. That intimate union, until death do us part, is what the broken bread and the wine typifies. But they do not understand what this.

The binding of Isaac by our patriarch Abraham and his willingness to sacrifice His only true son was a blood covenant reflection and a witness of greater things that YHVH God was going to do for Israel and for all mankind in a future time. See Isaiah 49:6.

Our God is not slack concerning His promises. He Himself would provide a sacrifice. Yes Abraham saw the ram caught by his horns, even with the thorns binding his head. Abraham then released his son and turned to see the sacrifice lamb that God had provided. So right there, on the temple mount, in the divine typology, was a picture of a promised future Sacrifice Lamb, the Holy One of Israel, the Meshiach ben Joseph or 'Suffering Servant' Isaiah spoke about. (Isa.53)

If the Dome of the Rock covers the ground where Abraham offered up Isaac then it should be remembered. It should be honored. Abraham's sacrifice, on man's side of the covenant surely deserves a place of prominence on the Temple Mount.

And a future Jewish Temple ought be built beside it. It should be built upon a greater reality, even the sure promise of a Sacrifice Lamb. In fact this is the first thing that confronts the visitor to the Temple, or the Tabernacle that preceded it. They see the brazen altar. And they see the lamb of sacrifice upon that altar.

The promised and Expected One was to be lifted up and seen by all mankind. He comes to us from the heart of the Holy One of Israel. He will be a 'Light to the Gentiles'. (Isa.42:6, 49:6, & 60:3) Surely the Anointed One, the Messiah, is that Lamb. And our Messiah came first to fulfill His priestly role. This two phase pattern was laid out by YHVH-God in the Seven Feasts of Israel. He was the Suffering Servant Isaiah spoke about. This prophesied coming of Israel's Sacrifice Lamb provided the true basis and the spiritual foundation for the future Temple.
Because the Lord of Hosts has declared,

"....I will shake all nations,
and the Desire of all nations shall come,
And I will fill this house with glory." (Hag.2:7)

Dear viewer: This is the first time I am sharing this vision below on social media.

Zechariah 12:2-3

[2] Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling to all the people round about, when they shall be in siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
[3] And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against her.

Luke 21:20

"But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by an army, then know that it's destruction is drawing near".

On March 25th, 2002 & two days before the Passover Massacre which occurred in Israel on March 27th, 2002, I received a night vision from the Lord Jesus. I was standing on top of a hill overlooking the Temple Mount in Jerusalem while Jesus was standing on my right hand side. As he began to talk to me he said; ' I AM ABOUT TO STRIKE A NERVE UPON THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL BECAUSE AS OF YET THEY HAVE NOT ACCEPTED ME AS THEIR MESSIAH". I asked him "what do you mean by I am going to strike a nerve upon the children of Israel? He responded by saying; " YOU SEE THIS CONFLICT BETWEEN THE JEWS AND THE PALESTINIANS? IT WILL CONTINUE TO GET WORSE AND WORSE UNTIL ALL THE ARAB NATIONS TURN AGAINST ISRAEL AND SEE HER AS THE LEADING CAUSE FOR ALL THE PROBLEMS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. ISRAEL WILL ULTIMATELY HAVE HER BACK UP AGAINST THE WALL WITH NOWHERE TO TURN. THIS WILL ALL LEAD TO MY SECOND COMING TO THIS EARTH". Before the Lord Jesus left, I took advantage of the opportunity of asking him about the Third Jewish Temple and where will it be located when it's rebuilt since there has been great controversies about this topic. I said; 'LORD WILL THE 3RD JEWISH TEMPLE BE REBUILT ON THE EXACT SPOT WHERE THE DOME OF THE ROCK STANDS? HE SAID "NO". WITH HIS RIGHT INDEX FINGER HE POINTED TO ME AN AREA WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE TO THE NORTH OF THE TEMPLE PLATFORM FROM THE DOME OF THE ROCK AND STATED; " THAT'S WHERE THE 3RD JEWISH TEMPLE WILL BE REBUILT. ON THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE TEMPLE MOUNT" end of quote.

A CRITIQUE OF JONATHAN CAHN'S NEW BOOK "THE JOSIAH MANIFESTO" (originally published 9/4/23)

DEAR VIEWER:

WATCH THIS 30 MIN

VIDEO BELOW. AS YOU 

CONTINUE TO READ THIS 

ARTICLE, I AM GOING TO PROVE 

TO YOU  THAT THIS SO CALLED 

ANCIENT MYSTERY  REGARDING 

 FIDEL CASTRO & CUBA ETC IS ALL A FAKE 

 AND AN ELABORATE FABRICATION!

 What Jonathan Cahn claims about himself as taken from his Editorial Reviews :  

"Long before writing these books, he was known for opening the deep mysteries of Scripture and bringing forth messages of prophetic import".

Dear viewer: Before you decide to purchase any of Jonathan Cahn's products, be aware of the following red flags:

1) Mr. Cahn has been successful in persuading people around the world that he is a modern day O.T. prophet, while giving them a secret, hidden knowledge that others do not have which draws his followers in like flies feeding off honey. This  encourages them to have an awe of his so called ANCIENT MYSTERIES which is largely influenced by MYSTICAL HERMENUETICS. Once people are duped Cahn has this anointing, then he can begin to claim or establish himself as a prophet of God. This works well for people who are too STUPID, but would rather hear from a self proclaimed prophet than to hear from God through studying His word. This self proclaimed prophet (Cahn) will keep his followers from discovering that he has appointed himself as America's so called prophet with the help of Sid Roth from It's Supernatural. By the way, Sid Roth has a long history of occasionally promoting charlatans on his show spanning approximately 40 years. This also includes Steven Strang who is Jonathan Cahn's Frontline publisher & CEO & Founder of Charisma Magazine. In August 2015 Steven Strang's Charisma Magazine published an article written by Troy Anderson claiming that Jonathan Cahn founded the church Beth Israel (page 58). That is a false narrative. Beth Israel Worship Center's founder was none other than the late MR. GARY SELMAN. The vision for Beth Israel began with Gary Selman, a Messianic Jewish businessman with a heart for sharing the Gospel to Jew and Gentile alike and Pastor Charlie Rizzo of the Church of the Nazarene who gave early support to the new work. It was later in 1988 that Gary asked Jonathan Cahn to become the spiritual leader of Beth Israel. 

The majority of the stories you see on Charisma Magazine these days are defending the most indefensible or propping up the most absurd false teachers and prophets of our day like Jonathan Cahn, Heidi Baker, Bill Johnson, T.D. Jakes who denies the Trinity (Oneness Pentecostal) and countless others. This is vital. If Cahn's followers suspect that he started out as the only one who said he was self appointed as America's prophet, he will never get a flock following him and Cahn will miss out on all the fun and profit there is when  fleecing his flocks. 

2)Self proclaimed prophets establish themselves as  prophets from God by making a few predictions. Mr. Cahn has a track record of making false predictions i.e. THE MYSTERY OF THE SHEMTAH which was to happen on Elul 29, 2015 AND CULMINATE IN A GLOBAL ECONOMIC COLLAPSE. AND THE FOUR BLOOD MOONS which according to Mr. Cahn's other side kick convicted felon Jim Bakker was to lead to the start of the Great Tribulation in Sept 2015. None of these predictions materialized! Cahn's predictions of the Mystery of the Shemitah was also based on a 3000 year Jewish calendar which Cahn claimed was infallible(see link refuting his claims( http://lamblion.com/articles/articles_jewishlife3.php]). 

It does not matter if these bogus mysteries don’t come to pass because false prophets can always claim it was their lack of faith as to why it did not happen. The secret of being successful is always to shift the blame back to the people when the so called prophet is in a tight spot. Whatever they do, the so called prophet never accepts responsibility for the lack of failed prophesies as this will taint their image and hinder the pursuit of fleecing the flock for fun and profit. They must also keep their flock from any passages in the Bible that say that a prophet must have 100% accuracy such as Deuteronomy 18. It will be necessary for them to steer them clear from such passages and remind them that all people are fallible. If the so called prophet keeps the focus on the fallible people, their flocks will not notice that prophecies are supposed to come from God who is infallible. 

3) If someone tells you they’ve discovered something in the Scriptures that no one else in 2 thousand years has discovered, they’re wrong and trying to sell you something – each and every last and lousy time. And you can BANK on it because it's all a GIMMICK and it's a big business/enterprise. And don't believe in the 5 star reviews this book is getting on Amazon.com. Amazon functions as an advertising agency and critical reviews like mine are placed at the bottom and out of sight so that customers will not be exposed to the truth with regards to these bogus mysteries. It's all a head game of false advertisement.

5) Despite Mr. Cahn's claims of calling himself a Rabbi, he actually in the academic sense is not. Mr. Cahn has a bachelor's degree in History from Purchase University which is affiliated with SUNY in New York (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Cahn).  He never has claimed attending a Rabbinical College. He never has provided any documentation/degree from any Jewish Theological Seminary as proof that he has successfully completed the Academic Disciplines or requirements to be officially ordained as a Rabbi(SMICHA). Furthermore, he has never provided any evidence that he completed an internship under a licensed Rabbi before being officially ordained as one. The following is the basic academic requirements for becoming a Rabbi: You'll need lots and lots of schooling to become a rabbi. Typically, it takes five years to get a Master's degree in rabbinical studies. You need to be an expert in the Hebrew language, Jewish law, Jewish history, the Bible, the Talmud, liturgy, Jewish teaching methods, counseling, Jewish literature, ethics, Israel, Jewish philosophy, and pretty much all things Jewish. (https://www.shmoop.com/careers/rabbi/qualifications. 

The following is an excerpt taken from David H. Stern's Jewish N.T. commentary and I quote:

" A MESSIANIC JEWISH CONGREGATIONAL LEADER WHO ACCEPTS THE TITLE "RABBI" WITHOUT HAVING TRAINING ADEQUATE TO QUALIFY HIM AS A RABBI IN A NON-MESSIANIC JEWISH SETTING IS ACCEPTING HONOR WHICH HE HAS NOT EARNED AND TO WHICH HE IS NOT ENTITLED; AND THIS DOES VIOLATE YESHUA'S(JESUS) INJUNCTION UNDER MATHEW 23:8-10. SHOULD A MESSIANIC RABBI HAVE A S' MIKHAH(ORDINATION)? IF SO , SHOULD IT BE MESSIANIC OR NON-MESSIANIC? IF MESSIANIC, WHO IS QUALIFIED TO GRANT IT? MESSIANIC JUDAISM AT PRESENT HAS VERY FEW ORDAINED RABBIS AND NO ACCREDITING AGENCY. AT PRESENT, IN ORDER NOT TO EMBARASS THE MESSIANIC JEWISH MOVEMENT, I URGE LEADERS WITHOUT RABBINIC TRAINING TO RESIST CALLING THEMSELVES RABBIS" pages 68-69 end of quote.

Dear viewer: The next time you hear one of these religious charlatans on their tv talk show address Mr. Cahn as Rabbi, keep in mind it's all a GIMMICK & they are lying right before your face!

Dear Viewer: Jonathan Cahn claims that his books contain Ancient Mysteries never revealed by anyone until now and only through him( that also includes Jesus Christ and the Biblical authors). But is there such a thing as Ancient Mysteries endorsed in the Bible? Let's examine Jonathan Cahn's claims & terminology of Ancient Mysteries and put it through the acid test, and scripturally examine what the Bible actually has to say about God's mysteries, to see if there is a correlation between the two.

The Problem with Jonathan Cahn's claims:

 Prophets Reveal Mysteries

The apostle Paul claims that he was chosen by God to reveal mysteries as were the other apostles. The gospel itself was the mystery of which he spoke. We see this in Ephesians 3:

"that by revelation there was made known to me the mystery, as I wrote before in brief. By referring to this, when you read you can understand my insight into the mystery of Christ, which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit; to be specific, that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel" (Ephesians 3:3-6)

A mystery is something that would not be known had God not chosen to reveal it through His appointed spokes persons. These are Moses and the prophets in the Old Testament, and Christ and His appointed apostles and prophets in the New Testament. The writings of the Biblical prophets in Scripture are inerrant and infallible. In the Scriptures God has revealed all the mysteries that will be known to us until Christ returns.

However, Jonathan Cahn, who is not one of the Biblical prophets, claims to reveal mysteries:  using his previous claims from his previous book and I quote: “The Harbinger Book 1 are not only revealing mysteries but also the sounding of the alarms.”Cahn’s claim to be a revealer of mysteries is strong and severely problematic: “Much that will be revealed in these books has never before been revealed in written form” (Cahn: 2). This is a rather bold claim that rivals and echoes the apostle Paul’s cited above. He claims to have special revelation like the biblical authors. The problem is that Cahn did not see the resurrected Christ and was not appointed by Him like Paul and the other apostles. Cahn has no standing as an apostle or prophet and his writings are not binding as Scripture is.

Referencing again his previous book Cahn repeats his grand claim: “The Harbinger book 1 contains 14 major revelations or mysteries” (Cahn: 4). Unlike Paul and the other apostles, Cahn was not personally taught by Christ, but he still claims prophetic status based on subjective, inner voices: and I quote: “I heard an inner voice say, ‘There’s a mystery here. You must seek and find it” (Cahn: 9). Religious leaders claiming special revelations and special status are nothing new. Hundreds of false groups have started out that way. We need to decide CAREFULLY whether to believe anyone who claims special revelation above and beyond Scripture.

 Jonathan Cahn in his new book claims that he has unlocked so called "ANCIENT MYSTERIES" from the Bible relating to some historical recent events in America. I don't intend to refute all of them due to limited space. However, I am going to touch on only one. He claims that the Jewish Jubilee of the O.T. has a direct correlation between ABORTION IN AMERICA , CHIEF JUSTICE AMY CONEY BARRET'S VOTE OVERTURNING ABORTION, THE COVID19 PANDEMIC OF 2020 AND FIDEL CASTRO'S CUBA AS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT FROM GOD.

 FIRST AND FOREMOST THE 50TH JUBILEE YEAR HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FIDEL CASTRO AND CUBA, THE COVID19 PANDEMIC OR ABORTION IN AMERICA. 

Here are the facts:

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD BIBLE ENCYCLOPEDIA - JUBILEE YEAR

JUBILEE YEAR

(shenath ha-yobhel; etos tes apheseos; annus jubilaeus, "year of jubilee" (Leviticus 25:13), or simply ha-yobhel, "the jubilee" (Leviticus 25:28; compare Numbers 36:4), the King James Version and the English Revised Version Jubile):

The Hebrew word yobhel stands for qeren ha-yobhel, meaning the horn of a ram. Now, such a horn can be made into a trumpet, and thus the word yobhel came to be used as a synonym of trumpet. According to Leviticus 25:9 a loud trumpet should proclaim liberty throughout the country on the 10th day of the 7th month (the Day of Atonement), after the lapse of 7 sabbaths of years = 49 years. In this manner, every 50th year was to be announced as a jubilee year. All real property should automatically revert to its original owner (Leviticus 25:10; compare 25:13), and those who, compelled by poverty, had sold themselves as slaves to their brothers, should regain their liberty (Leviticus 25:10; compare 25:39).

In addition to this, the Jubilee Year was to be observed after the manner of the sabbatic year, i.e. there should be neither sowing nor reaping nor pruning of vines, and everybody was expected to live on what the fields and the vineyards produced "of themselves," and no attempt should be made at storing up the products of the land (Leviticus 25:11). Thus there are three distinct factors constituting the essential features of the Jubilee Year:

personal liberty, restitution of property, and what we might call the simple life.

1. Personal Liberty:

The 50th year was to be a time in which liberty should be proclaimed to all the inhabitants of the country. We should, indeed, diminish the import of this institution if we should apply it only to those who were to be freed from the bonds of physical servitude. Undoubtedly, they must have been the foremost in realizing its beneficial effects. But the law was intended to benefit all, the masters as well as the servants. They should never lose sight of their being brothers and citizens of theocratic kingdom. They owed their life to God and were subject to His sovereign will. Only through loyalty to Him were they free and could ever hope to be free and independent of all other masters.

2. Restitution of Property:

The institution of the Jubilee Year should become the means of fixing the price of real property (Leviticus 25:15; compare 25:25-28); moreover, it should exclude the possibility of selling any piece of land permanently (Leviticus 25:23), the next verse furnishing the motive:

"The land is mine: for ye are strangers and sojourners with me." The same rule was to be applied to dwelling-houses outside of the walled cities (Leviticus 25:31), and also to the houses owned by Levites, although they were built within walled cities (Leviticus 25:32).

In the same manner the price of Hebrew slaves was to vary according to the proximity of the Jubilee Year (Leviticus 25:47-54). This passage deals with the enslaving of a Hebrew by a foreigner living among the Jews; it goes without saying that the same rule would hold good in the case of a Hebrew selling himself to one of his own people.

In Leviticus 27:17-25 we find a similar arrangement respecting such lands that were "sanctified unto Yahweh." In all these cases the original owner was at liberty to redeem his property at any time, or have it redeemed by some of his nearest relatives (25:25-27,29,48; 27:19).

The crowning feature, though, was the full restitution of all real property in the Jubilee Year. The primary object of this regulation was, of course, the reversion of all hereditary property to the family which originally possessed it, and the reestablishment of the original arrangement regarding the division of the land. But that was not all; for this legal disposition and regulation of external matters was closely connected with the high calling of the Jewish people. It was a part of the Divine plan looking forward to the salvation of mankind. "The deepest meaning of it (the Jubilee Year) is to be found in the apokatastasis tes basileias tou theou, i.e. in the restoring of all that which in the course of time was perverted by man's sin, in the removing of all slavery of sin, in the establishing of the true liberty of the children of God, and in the delivering of the creation from the bondage of corruption to which it was subjected on account of man's depravity" (Romans 8:19) (compare Keil, Manual of Biblical Archaeology). In the Year of Jubilee a great future era of Yahweh's favor is foreshadowed, that period which, according to Isaiah 61:1-3, shall be ushered in to all those that labor and are heavy laden, by Him who was anointed by the spirit of the Lord Yahweh.

3. The Simple Life:

The Jubilee Year, being the crowning point of all sabbatical institutions, gave the finishing touch as it were to the whole cycle of sabbatic days, months and years. It is, therefore, quite appropriate that it should be a year of rest for the land like the preceding sabbatic year (Leviticus 25:11). It follows, of course, that in this instance there were two years, one after the other, in which there should be no sowing or systematic ingathering. This seems to be clear from Leviticus 25:18-22:

"And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits, the old store; until the ninth year, until its fruits come in, ye shall eat the old store." Thus in the 7th and 8th years the people were to live on what the fields had produced in the 6th year and whatever grew spontaneously. This shows the reason why we may say that one of the factors constituting the Jubilee Year was the "simple life." They could not help but live simply for two consecutive years. Nobody can deny that this afforded ample opportunity to develop the habit of living within very limited means. And again we see that this external part of the matter did not fully come up to the intention of the Lawgiver. It was not the simple life as such that He had in view, but rather the laying down of its moral and religious foundations. In this connection we must again refer to Leviticus 25:18-22, "What shall we eat the seventh year?" The answer is very simple and yet of surpassing grandeur: "Then I will command my blessing upon you," etc. Nothing was expected of the people but faith in Yahweh and confidence in His power, which was not to be shaken by any doubtful reflection. And right here we have found the root of the simple life: no life without the true God, and no simplicity of life without true faith in Him. "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God" (Matthew 4:4; compare Deuteronomy 8:3).

We may well ask:

Did the Jewish people ever observe the Jubilee Year? There is no reason why they should not have observed it in pre-exilic times (compare Lotz in The New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge, X, under the word "Sabbatical Year" and "Year of Jubilee"). Perhaps they signally failed in it, and if so, we should not be surprised at all. Not that the institution in itself was cumbered with any obstacles that could not have been overcome; but what is more common than unbelief and unwillingness to trust absolutely in Yahweh? Or, was it observed in post-exilic times? Here, too, we are in the dark. There is, indeed, a tradition according to which the Jubilee Year has never been observed--neither in the time of Ezra and Nehemiah nor at any later period. The truth of this seems to be corroborated by the silence of Josephus, who, while referring quite frequently to the sabbatic year, never once mentions the Year of Jubilee.

William Baur.

In summary, the answer to this question is that the Jubilee year is currently not observed or commemorated. The reasons for this are complex and involve many different opinions on the matter. In the following lines I will attempt to briefly relay the relevant issues.

  According to biblical law, the Jubilee is only observed when all twelve tribes of the Jewish nation are living in Israel, as is derived from the verse,1 “And you shall sanctify the fiftieth year, and proclaim freedom throughout the land for all who live on it,” which implies that the Jubilee is only sanctified when “all who live on it”—meaning, all who are meant to be living there—are in the Land of Israel. 

Furthermore, the Jubilee is only observed when every tribe is living in the specific part of the land which it was allotted when the Land of Israel was divided. However, some are of the opinion that the Jubilee is observed as long as there is a partial representation of each tribe, even if most of the tribe is not in Israel.  

In the 6th century BCE, the Assyrians conquered the Northern Kingdom of Israel and sent the majority of its population into exile. Those who were deported are historically known as the Ten Lost Tribes. We are certain that before that point in time the Jubilee was regularly observed. We also know that, with the destruction of the Second Temple and the disbandment of the Sanhedrin (supreme rabbinical court), we ceased to mark the Jubilee year in any form. 

The periods about which there is a question are the remaining years between the exile of the Ten Tribes and the destruction of the First Temple, and the Second Temple Era. According to the opinion that partial representation of each tribe is sufficient to fulfill the scriptural requirement, biblically mandated Jubilees were fully observed throughout the periods in question, because there remained a small representation of each tribe in Israel.

  However, according to the first opinion mentioned above, with the exile of the Northern Kingdom the required condition for the Jubilee to be sanctified was lost. Thus, the last time there was a biblical requirement to observe the Jubilee was about 150 years before the destruction of the First Temple. The question remains, however, whether according to this opinion Jubilee years were designated or observed during this time by rabbinic injunction. This is the subject of debate amongst the sages. 

As mentioned above, though, today the Jubilee year is neither designated nor observed. And now for the answer to this question: “When is the next Jubilee year?” The Jews today eagerly await the day when God will bring their entire nation back to their homeland—including the ten “lost” tribes—and at that time they will again resume observing the Jubilee year, as well as so many other mitzvot which they are incapable of performing until that awaited day.

Definition of Ancient Mysteries

Secret rituals of pagan religions, known only to select initiates who had qualified for higher spiritual development. Such mysteries were kept apart from popular worship, and initiates had to take a binding oath of secrecy, so that even today our knowledge of the mysteries is partly conjectural. Typical mystery cults were those of Eleusis in Greece from about 1500 B.C.E., in turn deriving from the mystery religions of ancient Egypt and the mysteries of Mithras, a Persian deity. Traces of Mithraism existed in Britain. Many secret societies in modern times have claimed that their rituals are a descent of an ancient tradition.

I did an exhaustive search to see if this term ANCIENT MYSTERY  is found in the bible. Nowhere is this term found either in the Old or New Testaments. But the Word of God uses the term Pagan/Paganism . It's a synonymous term for what is known today as Ancient Mystery. 

 However I did find a list of Ancient Mystery Religions in the book "ESSENTIALS OF BIBLE HISTORY" pages 564-567 as follows:

1) THE ELEUSINIAN MYSTERIES 

2) THE CULT OF DIONYSUS  

3) ORPHISM  

4) THE CULT OF CYBELE ATTIS  

5) SYRIAN MYSTERY CULTS 

6) MITHRAISM  

7) THE CULT OF ISIS AND SERAPIS 

8) EPICUREANISM & STOICISM.

"Ancient Mystery Cults: The Real History of Secret Societies" 

The True Biblical meaning of Mystery as defined in the Bible

 
Scripture frequently describes God as one who knows all things, even that which the human mind could never know or finds incomprehensible. Thus he sees the secret intentions of human hearts ( Psalms 139:1-4 Psalms 139:23 ; Matt 6:4-6 ; Rom 2:16 ; 1 Cor 4:5 ; 14:25 ; Heb 4:13 ), comprehends the seemingly unfathomable mysteries of the universe ( Job 38:1-39:30 ), and, most important, understands the meaning of human history. 

God understands human history because the events that comprise it correspond with his own intentions: he wills all that happens, and does so to accomplish his own purpose ( Dan 2:37 ; 5:21 ; Rom 11:25-36 ). People, on the other hand, both because of their sin and because of their human limitations, remain ignorant of God's purpose when left to their own reckoning ( Daniel 2:27 Daniel 2:30 ; Mark 4:10-12 ; Luke 19:41-44 ). God graciously responds to this human inadequacy by revealing his purpose to his people. When God's purpose is revealed in this way, the Bible frequently refers to it as a "mystery."

The content of the divine mystery is painted in broad strokes in the Old Testament, takes on greater detail in the Gospels, and receives its finishing touches in Paul's letters. In Daniel, where the term first appears (raz in Aramaic, always translated with mysterion [musthvrion] in the LXX), it refers to God's understanding of the symbols in Nebuchadnezzar's dream, symbols that stand for the rise and fall of human empires and to the eventual establishment of God's own, eternal kingdom ( 2:44 ; cf. Rev 1:20 ; Revelation 17:5 Revelation 17:7 ). The details of these events, however, and the nature of God's kingdom, once established, remain sketchy in Daniel. The mystery of God's purposes gains greater specificity in the Gospels, where Jesus, particularly in his parables, reveals the "mystery of the kingdom of God" ( Mark 4:11 ; cf. Matt 13:11 ; Luke 8:10 ). Paul also identifies the divine mystery with the revelation of God in Christ ( Col 2:2 ; 4:3 ) but gives the concept even greater clarity in three ways. 

First, he equates the divine mystery with the gospel of Christ's atoning death on the cross ( 1 Cor 2:1 ); second, he describes it as God's plan, through Christ's atoning death ( Eph 2:13-16 ), to include the Gentiles among his chosen people; and third, he defines it as the reconciliation of all things to God ( Eph 1:9-10 ). Thus, Daniel described the divine mystery in general terms as the eventual establishment of God's eternal kingdom; Jesus defined it more specifically as his proclamation of God's kingdom; and Paul described it more specifically still as the constitution of a new people, from among both Jews and Gentiles, through the atoning death of Christ on the cross.

This understanding of divine mystery illustrates three aspects of God's character. First, it emphasizes God's omniscience. After God revealed the "mystery" of the interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar's dream to Daniel, Daniel thanked God in prayer for his wisdom and power ( 2:23 ; cf. 2:20 ) and described him as a God who "knows what lies in darkness" ( 2:22 ). Paul, similarly, after revealing the mystery of God's plan to include the Gentiles among his chosen people breaks into praise of the "depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God" ( Rom 11:33 ).

Second, the biblical concept of divine mystery emphasizes God's sovereignty. The mystery revealed to Daniel and communicated to the king demonstrates not only that God knows the beginning of history from its end but that the rise and fall of human empires and the establishment of God's own kingdom happen according to his decree ( 2:36 ). Similarly, Paul says that the mystery of God's intention to unite both Jews and Gentiles in the body of Christ has been in place from ages past ( Eph 3:9-11 ; Col 1:26-27 ; cf. Eph 1:9-10 ; 3:5 ).

Third, and most important, the biblical understanding of divine mystery emphasizes God's grace. This can be seen immediately in the stark contrast between the biblical use of the term "mystery" and its use as a technical term in ancient Hellenistic mystery religions. In these cults the term was used to signify the esoteric knowledge that initiates were instructed, with threats of severe punishment, not to reveal to the uninitiated. The Bible, however, emphasizes God's gracious willingness to reveal the mystery of his purposes to his servants the prophets and through them to other people ( Rev 10:7 ; cf. Amos 3:7 ). The biblical emphasis is well illustrated in Daniel. There God graciously reveals his mysteries to Daniel to save him from the king's cruel sentence of death upon the royal wise men for their inability to interpret the king's dream ( 2:16-19 ). Because Daniel recognizes the graciousness of God's response, he is quick to acknowledge before the king that the dream's interpretation has come from God, not from Daniel's abilities as a counselor ( Daniel 2:27 Daniel 2:30 ). Similarly, Jesus graciously explains the parable of the sower to his disciples with the comment that, although the parables baffle those on the outside, the mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to them ( Matt 11:25-26 ).

In Paul's letters this aspect of the mystery of God comes to a climax. Paul points his readers again and again to the unique position they occupy as those who have experienced the fulfillment of the mystery of God's purposes. Although predicted in the Scriptures, the mystery was kept silent for long ages ( Rom 16:25-26 ), hidden for generations past ( Col 1:26 ; cf. Ephesians 3:5 Ephesians 3:9 Ephesians 3:11 ) that it might be revealed to apostles and prophets such as Paul himself and through them to believers ( Eph 3:1-12 ; cf. 1 Peter 1:10-12 ). Paul describes his calling to reveal the mystery of God to the Gentiles as "the grace of God given to me for you" ( Eph 3:2 ), and a few verses later, in a magnificent piling up of the language of grace, he identifies it as "the gift of the grace which God gave to me according to his effective power" (v. 7).

The biblical idea of mystery, then, reminds Christians that God holds the course of human events in his hands and has so shaped them that they work for the salvation of his people. It also demonstrates the graciousness of God in revealing his redemptive purposes to prophets and apostles and, through them, to all who are willing to hear.

Conclusion
According to the Sacred Text, the usage of MYSTERY is not a puzzle or a secret knowledge or wisdom that leaves a person in ignorance, but a truth that God reveals to man. It usually refers to something that man would not normally know, but that God in his grace makes known to him cf: Ephesians 3:4-5, Col 1:26, Rev 17:17.
They are secret counsels which govern God in dealing with the righteous, which are hidden from ungodly and wicked men but plain to the godly.

 ANCIENT MYSTERIES ARE CLASSIC NEW AGE EXPRESSIONS WHICH HAVE BEEN USED FOR CENTURIES BY ALL OCCULT GROUPS OF FREEMASONRY, THEOSOPHY AND NEW AGE RABBINICAL SAGES FROM THE JUDAIC BRANCH OF KABBALAH. 

Ancient Mystery is not biblically based but has a direct correlation to Ancient pagan religions. It is obvious to me that Mr. Cahn's concept of Ancient Mysteries has distorted & influenced his theological and critical thinking through MYSTICAL HERMENUETICS.

 

What is mystical hermeneutic?
This interpretive method is one that views the Hebrew Scriptures as having shades of meaning in addition to a strict grammatical interpretation. Jewish interpreters frequently see the inspired text of the Hebrew Scriptures as having deeper meanings intended by God that may not have been known or realized by the human authors of the Bible.

A mystical hermenuetic method is often identified as EISEGESIS. It is a fundamental Jewsish method that has made it's way into all kinds of Rabbinical writings including the ZOHAR/KABBALAH. 

SEE LINK : EXEGESIS VS EISEGESIS

Another variant of Mystical hermenuetics is Midrashic interpretation, since it is also characterized by finding deeper biblical meanings in the Bible unknown to the original biblical authors.  New Age Rabbinical Sages manufactured fantasy tales embroidered around biblical narratives, patriarchs, and events and used them in their attempt to discern the hidden meaning of scripture.

 Exercise extreme caution & discernment in these matters by filtering these claims through the written Word of God. MR. CAHN'S BOOKS ARE ALL A GIMMICK AND IT'S BIG BUSINESS. And many Christian Media outlets are cashing in BIG TIME because they view Mr. Cahn's books and products as a CASH COW!
