\nThe five red heifers in Haifa (from Temple Institute’s Facebook page)<\/em><\/p>\n

In its newsletter today, the Temple Institute had the following in it or its links:<\/p>\n

\n

Elul 27, 5782\/September 23, 2022 …<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Yitzchak Reuven is pleased to announce that the red heifers have arrived, and that we we are all standing before HaShem our G-d, and encourages everyone to let the shofar take you to HaShem!<\/p>\n

Making history and fulfilling prophecy all at the same time, five perfectly red heifers have arrived in Israel, all the way from Texas, with love! What a great way to close out the Hebrew year 5782 and begin 5783 – which starts Sunday evening – Rosh HaShana! …<\/p>\n

The five perfectly red, unblemished heifers that arrived in Israel last Thursday are currently in quarantine in the city of Haifa. They will soon be released to two different locations in Israel. One of the two locations will be made public and visitors will be welcome.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile the heifers are being well taken care of. …<\/p>\n

According to Jewish tradition, a kosher red heifer has a reddish-brown tone with no discoloration, and its ashes are used for ritual purification of Tum’at HaMet, that is, an Israelite who had come into contact with a corpse. The ritual purity obtained through the ashes of a red heifer was a necessary prerequisite for participating in services at the ancient Jewish Temples.<\/p>\n

Tradition also suggests that the birth of a kosher red heifer signals the arrival of the Messiah and the forthcoming construction of a new Temple. … the five heifers that arrived were the only ones they managed to find, which demonstrates the creature’s rarity and uniqueness.<\/p>\n

“It’s very rare. There hasn’t been a red cow here for 2,000 years, and we managed to find several. It’s probably a very special thing. The farm will be open to the public within a couple of months,” the group said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Having a ‘red heifer’ looks to be a factor in certain prophesied events moving forward in Israel.<\/p>\n

Today’s newsletter linked to the following Facebook article for the Temple Institute:<\/p>\n

Five perfectly red heifers, required for the ritual purification of those who have touched a dead body, arrived in Israel from a ranch in Texas on Thursday, as the Temple Institute continues preparations to lay the ground for the construction of the Third Temple in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n

The heifers are all under one year old and if they remain 100% red and avoid any blemishes which would disqualify them, they will each be eligible to be used to create the ashes required by Jewish law to purify those who have been in contact with a dead body, explained the Temple Institute on Monday. This level of purification would be needed in order to allow the kohanim (priests) to carry out their work in a future Temple.<\/p>\n

The prized cattle were immediately transported to Haifa where they will sit in quarantine for no less than seven days, in accordance with the regulations of the Israel Veterinary Authority. …<\/p>\n

What is a red heifer?<\/p>\n

The red heifer is first mentioned in the Book of Numbers 19:3, when God tells Moses and Aaron “This is the ritual law that God has commanded: Instruct the Israelite people to bring you a red cow without blemish, in which there is no defect and on which no yoke has been laid.”<\/p>\n

The Torah goes on to explain how the heifer is processed and burnt and its ashes mixed into sanctified water. Those who became impure due to touching a human corpse would be purified by having the water mixed with the ashes sprinkled on them twice: once three days after they came in contact with the corpse and a second time seven days after contact.<\/p>\n

The Torah relates that a red heifer was brought to Elazar the Priest, the son of Aaron, and was processed for its ashes for the ritual. According to the Talmud, those ashes were used from that moment until the end of the First Temple period. During the Second Temple period, another five to seven red heifers were burnt for their ashes. Maimonides wrote in his compendium of Jewish law, the Mishneh Torah (Laws of the Red Heifer, 3:4), that the next red heifer will be brought by the Messiah.<\/p>\n

Why is the red heifer important?<\/p>\n

In the modern day, all Jews, including kohanim, are assumed to be impure with the impurity imparted by a corpse. While in everyday life in the modern day this status does not have much of a practical effect, those impure with this type of impurity are prohibited from entering the Temple.<\/p>\n

Kohanim impure with this type of impurity are thereby prevented from conducting the services required in the Temple and would need to be purified with the ashes of a red heifer before being able to serve again, making the creation of such ashes a necessary requirement for any attempt to reestablish the Temple in Jerusalem. (One exception is the Pascal sacrifice, which can be offered even by those who are impure with the impurity imparted by a corpse, as long as the majority of the Jewish people are impure with this type of impurity). https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/templeinstitute\/posts\/10151740340689969<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Red Heifers and the Fate of the World <\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Temple Institute has claimed that the fate of the world depends on something called a red heifer. What is a red heifer? Is it mentioned in the Bible? Could one be tied in with end of the world prophecies? Will animal sacrifices resume in Israel? Is a red heifer or a \u2018third temple\u2019 needed for this? What does the Bible teach about such things? What have representatives of the Temple Institute and Sanhedrin told Dr. Thiel? How many red heifers have there been claimed to be? Do Christians need the ashes of a red heifer? Must Numbers 19, Daniel 12 and Isaiah 1 tie together as proof of the need for a red heifer? Can prophecy be fulfilled for the Messiah without a red heifer? Dr. Thiel answers these questions and also explains Who, according to Jesus\u2019 words, the fate of the world really depends on.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

5 Red Heifers and Year 5783?<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The Temple Institute announced that “5 perfect, unblemished red heifers arrived in Israel from the USA” on September 15, 2022.. Chanan Kupietzky, an Orthodox Jewish teacher, pointed out that last year was 5781 in the Jewish calendar, pointing to the year these red heifers were conceived, 5782 is when they were to arrive in Israel, and that the year beginning sunset September 25, 2022 is supposedly 5783, which is supposed to be the year of red heifer redemption. Is that the correct year anno mundi<\/em> (year of the earth) or is 5989 to 5992 more in line with history? What about the claimed Shemitah year? Might the appearance of a proper red heifer encourage the Sanhedrin to begin regular animal sacrifices? Might political considerations result in the resumption of animal sacrifices? Does the Bible show that animal sacrifices in Israel will be stopped? Does possibly having a red heifer mean that a massive Jewish temple is about to be rebuilt in Jerusalem? Do Christians need the sacrifice of Jesus or the blood of a red heifer to be purified? How close do we seem to be for Daniel 9:27b to be fulfilled? <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our video: 5 Red Heifers and Year 5783?<\/a><\/p>\n

Note: The year that the Jews call 5783 is off by over 200 years according to several of their scholars–that is mentioned in the above video, as well as more thoroughly documented in the following article: Does God Have a 6,000 Year Plan? What Year Does the 6,000 Years End?<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

As far as a massive Jewish Temple goes, while the Jews likely will build something, a massive Jewish Temple is not required for the resumption of animal sacrifices per the Bible.<\/p>\n

hen I was there, I confirmed with one of their men that the Jews did NOT need a temple in order to reimplement regular sacrifices, only an altar–which they now have–which is consistent with Ezra:<\/p>\n

6 From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt offerings unto the LORD. But the foundation of the temple of the LORD was not yet laid. (Ezra 3:6)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I also have verified with\u00a0 a Temple Institute employee when I was in Israel as well as via email years earlier with the reconstituted Sanhedrin that an actual temple was not needed for the resumption of sacrifices.<\/p>\n

Because the Bible teaches that animal sacrifices will be stopped (Daniel 9:27, 11:31, 12:10), we know that they will be started again.<\/p>\n

Having an eligible red heifer will motivate certain Jews to push harder for their resumption.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How does the Bible define the \u2018temple of God\u2019 in the New Testament?
