SHAVUOT TWIN LOAVES & FIRST-FRUITS REENACTMENT
This past Sunday, June 1st,
the Temple Institute, in cooperation with other Temple organizations,
presented a Shavuot Symposium, featuring a reenactment of the special
festival Twin Loaves and First Fruit Offerings. This reenactment was
conducted by kohanim, (priests of the lineage of Aharon), students of
the Temple Institute's recently opened school for kohanim.
The
reenactment involved the preparation and baking of the twin loaves in
accordance to the manner in which it was done in the Holy Temple.
The
baked loaves were then taken by the kohanim and waved before a model
altar, along with lambs, which also constitute part of the twin loaves
offering.
In addition o
the twin loaves reenactment, the kohanim also performed a reenactment of
the bringing of the bikurim - first-fruits - in the traditional tene - a
basket woven from wicket.
Many people, including children attended the reenactment, which took place on the Mount of Olives lover looking the Temple Mount.
The twin loaves and first-fruit offerings can (and should) be offered in our day. The
offerings need not wait for the building of the Holy Temple. What is
required is an altar located on its precise location on the Temple
Mount. Even a temporary altar would suffice for the purpose of these two
offerings. Therefore it is imperative that kohanim learn the
halalchot and precise details of preparing and performing these
offerings in anticipation of the renewal of these offerings on the
Temple Mount.
Comment Ronnie Spradley: Happening before our eyes. "When you see these things begin to come to pass, look up for your redemption draws near". In our day.

Mat 24:3 And
as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him
privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
Mat 24:32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
Mat 24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
Luk 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Revelation 11
1
And there was given me a reed like to a rod: and the angel stood,
saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them
that worship therein.
2
But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it
not; for it is given to the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread
under foot forty and two months.
