"Why Tisha B'Av?"


 
Hi John and Doves.
I have an Idea that it is NOT Tisha B'Av, but Tu B'Av - The VALENTINES Day of Israel
Next Week on Full Moon - Like Passover, we LEAVE so we have moon LIGHT at NIGHT to see our way! - Foolish 5 Virgins had no EXTRA Light in their Lamps.
The Bible has several accounts (Parables) of a WEDDING feast!

10 Virgins going to Marry the Groom – Tu B'Av 5784 - 19th August 2024

Matthew 25:1. Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2. And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish.
Matthew 22:2. The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,
3. And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
4. Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and [my] fatlings [are] killed, and all things [are] ready: come unto the marriage.
5. But they made light of [it], and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:

The Israeli Nation Today – 2024 -
Matthew 22:6. And the remnant took his servants, and entreated [them] spitefully, and slew [them].
7. But when the king heard [thereof], he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
8. Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
9. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
10. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
Luke 14:15. And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed [is] he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
16. Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many:
17. And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.
18. And they all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.
19. And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
20. And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
21. So that servant came, and showed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.
22. And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.
23. And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and COMPEL [them] to come in, that my house may be filled.
Luke 14:24. For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.

At 2nd Advent? He will RETURN.
Luke 12:35. Let your loins be girded about, and [your] lights burning;
36. And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the
wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
37. Blessed [are] those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
38. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find [them] so, blessed are those servants.

So next week on Full Moon - 19th August 2024? - At Full Moon for Israel?
I hope so!
