Apocalypse Events
Dec. 15th, 2022 06:01 pmIn the book of the prophet Haggai 2:10,18,20 one day is mentioned three times: Kislev 24. It is to this date that the words are attached: “I will shake the heavens and the earth; And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.”
Day 24 of Kislev is the eve of Hanukkah. Hanukkah has been celebrated since 25 Kislev 8 days. The main rite of the holiday is the sequential lighting of candles on a special nine-candle lamp, on which one candle, “shamash”, stands higher than the other eight candles. From this candle, the rest of the candles are lit, from right to left, on the first day of the holiday - one candle, on the second - two, and so on up to eight candles on the last day of Hanukkah. It is easy to understand that this should symbolize the Awakening, when from the cry “Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him,” the sleeping believers wake up, and those who have a supply of the Holy Spirit begin to “shine”, that is, to fulfill the commandments entrusted to them (the commandment is a lamp).
Thus, on the first day of the holiday, 2 candles, a shamash and the 1st candle are lit, on the second day - 3 candles, etc. If it were the custom to light only shamash at the beginning, then this would correspond to Kislev 24.
That is, Kislev 24 is the day “zero”, when something happens behind the scenes, but then everyone is ignited from this.
We can compare this image with the opening of the seals in the 6th chapter of the Revelation of John, when the day of the taking of the scroll by the Lamb is somewhere in heaven, but then riders on horseback descend to earth. Then the 1st seal is the 1st day of Hanukkah, the 2nd seal is the 2nd day of Hanukkah, and so on until the 5th seal, because the 6th seal is already an “earthquake”, when it is too late to flee to the Kingdom of Heaven.
But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. (Matthew 24:20,21)
For the current Hanukkah 2022, the 6th candle is the Sabbath candle.
The five wise virgins must have already been in the Kingdom of Heaven before that, and if not, great tribulation will overtake them.
