The Greater Exodus

 

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Updated 31 January 2024 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

Jeremiah 16:14-15

 

(Jeremiah 23:7–8)

 

it will no longer be said, ‘As surely as יהוה  lives, who brought the Israelites up out of Egypt,’  but it will be said, ‘As surely as יהוה  lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’ For I will restore them to the land I gave their ancestors

 

So what is the event that will change how  the Lord is referenced (delivered out of Egypt vs restored/out of the North..)? Jeremiah 31 expands this view to include, a new covenant and they will know me,

Working area to sort through this topic in real time:

(10/19/2023 study on Michael Rush’s book, The Book of Enoch, has left me contemplating that the return of the lost ten tribes and the greater exodus are the same event.)

1/31/2024 insight.   As a continue to contemplate this topic it has struck me that this could be the latter day part of the day of the Lord and may not be a separate event as I have seen it up to now….

 

The understanding/interpretation, of the application of this theme, is very wide, from it being totally ignored to it being the main event of the Second Coming of Christ. On a scale of 0-10 (0 = nothing to see here and 10 = this is the main event of latter-day goings on)

 

1:

2: My guess on where the current LDS teaching is on this topic based on the latter day work of gathering (missionary work and temple work)…

3:

4:

5:

6:

7:

8: My opinion on this (at least this high maybe higher)  and my Guess on where Gileadi is.

9: My guess on where Messianic Jews that teach this like: Rabbi  Eddie Chumney are….

10:

 

While trying to figure out how to handle Pre-Trib views on this topic, I decided to leave them out.   Most, I assume, would fall on the scale at 3 or below, especially as it pertains to current believers.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

Understandings of this by various groups:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<   Avraham Gileadi >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

At a high level: My current understanding of “who and how” will participate in this event according to Gileadi is that the who will be those that accept the message delivered by the latter-day servant figure and the how is by following His lead.

 

ISAIAH EXPLAINED

With Avraham Gileadi

This is a great website analysis of the Book of Isaiah with one of its major themes focused on the New (Greater) Exodus…

 

https://www.isaiahexplained.com/resources/overviews-of-the-prophecy-of-isaiah/ “…Three Years’ Warning Followed by Judgment…For a time, a righteous remnant of God’s people dwells in the wilderness, surviving on nomads’ foodDoing the Unexpected—A Way of DividingThose who prove righteous participate in an exodus to Zion even while the wicked perish (Isaiah 51:7–12).“…Nearing the End—“To Your Tents, O Israel!” During times of social upheaval, God’s people anciently resorted to the nomadic lifestyle of their ancestor..”  “…An End-Time Exodus out of Babylon to Zion…Of the thirty ancient events of which Isaiah predicts new, end-time versions, a new exodus—patterned after Israel’s ancient exodus out of Egypt—is similarly followed by a new wandering in the wilderness. The new exodus, however, is out of the whole world—out of “Babylon”—which God is about to destroy….”.. Divine Protection under God’s Cloud of Glory… Jehovah will form a cloud by day and a mist glowing with fireby night

 

 

 

https://www.isaiahexplained.com/  “… Isaiah defines Zion, too, as both a people and place: those who repent of doing evil and who return from exile in an end-time exodus to Zion. By means of such literary definitions Isaiah accounts for all peoples in the world. It would thus be a mistake to assume his writings refer mostly to Jews….”    “…In the end, all are accounted for—a new chaos, creation, paradise, Sodom-and-Gomorrah destruction, bondage, passover, exodus, wandering in the wilderness, conquest of the land, inheritance of the land, rebuilding of the temple, and so forth….” 

https://www.isaiahexplained.com/resources/isaiahs-ancient-types-of-end-time-events/

 

“…Israel’s end-time exodus, however, instead of being from a single land—Egypt—is out of Babylon, which Isaiah identifies as the world at large on the eve of its destruction…”   “…So great an event is the new, end-time exodus of God’s people that only the new, not the old, is celebrated in the millennial age: “‘The days come,’ says Jehovah, ‘that it will no more be said, “Jehovah lives, who brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt,” but “Jehovah loves, who brought the people of Israel from the land of the north and from all the lands where he had driven them.” For I will bring them again into the land I gave their fathers’” (Jeremiah 16:14–15)….”   “…As in the past, Jehovah’s cloud shields his end-time elect from their enemies and provides them with light during a time of darkness…”

 

"....Just as Abraham acted as a proxy savior to Lot when God destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, so God’s end-time servants act as proxy saviors to those whom God delivers from an end-time Sodom and Gomorrah type of destruction..."

 

"... In an end-time context, the “land” is the one occupied by those who profess to be Jehovah’s covenant people in that day, which their forebears obtained from Jehovah as a covenant blessing..."

A hut in a melon field. The idea of a “hut” suggests the presence of a watchman who guards the field against thieves and wild animals. A synonym of the term “shelter”—which appears in parallel with it—the “hut” further connotes protection from the elements, such as a rainstorm or the heat of the sun, whose imagery alludes to Jehovah’s Day of Judgment (Isaiah 17:1318:4-625:4-528:2, 14-1932:1940:2449:10). As a watchman’s role includes sounding the alarm when danger approaches (Isaiah 21:6-10), so those who heed the watchman’s warning are persons most likely to survive.

 

A city under siege. The “city” motif—which here appears in parallel with the “shelter” and “hut”—provides another metaphor of Jehovah’s people. Ultimately there emerge two cities in the Book of Isaiah that represent Jehovah’s covenant people: one wicked, the other righteous; one destroyed, the other delivered (v 21; Isaiah 24:10-1226:1-633:2052:1-266:6). The expression “under siege” (nesurah), moreover, possesses a double meaning in Hebrew: (1) “under siege”; and (2) “preserved.” In other words, although the righteous city may come under siege by enemies, Jehovah preserves it.

 

 

 

 

A shelter in a vineyard. While Jehovah’s “vineyard” denotes the Promised Land (Isaiah 5:1-7), in the millennial age it extends to the entire earth (Isaiah 27:2-6). The “shelter” refers to Jehovah’s cloud of glory that protects a remnant of his people as it did ancient Israel (Exodus 14:19-20, Exodus 14:19-20, 24): “Over the whole site of Mount Zion, and over its solemn assembly, Jehovah will form a cloud by day and a mist glowing with fire by night: above all that is glorious shall be a canopy. It shall be a shelter and shade from the heat of the day, a secret refuge from the downpour and from rain” (Isaiah 4:5-6; cf. 25:4-5).

 two millennial centers from which Jehovah’s law and word go forth to all nations (Isaiah 4:312:4-633:2051:4-5).

While those who are “left” and “remain” in Zion and Jerusalem consist of ascending categories of Jehovah’s people (Isaiah 30:1937:2240:951:16-1752:1-2), the names Zion and Jerusalem additionally designate places of safety in his Day of Judgment (vv 5-6; Isaiah 1:827:1331:535:1037:32). Called “holy” or “sanctified” (qados), those who are left are “inscribed among the living”—that is, their names are written in the Book of Life as Jehovah’s elect.

 

 

5 Over the whole site of Mount Zion, and over its solemn assembly, Jehovah will form a cloud by day and a mist glowing with fire by night: above all that is glorious shall be a canopy.

 

Those who sanctify themselves, who participate in Zion’s “solemn assembly,” enjoy Jehovah’s divine protection in the place Zion, also called “Mount Zion” (Isaiah 8:13-14, Isaiah 8:13-14, 1824:2324:23). Jehovah’s cloud of glory—signifying his presence (Exodus 24:15-18; 33:8-11)—makes glorious his holy people and the place where they abide. By its means, Jehovah protected ancient Israel when he appeared among his people during their wilderness travels (Exodus 13:20-22; 14:19-20). Jehovah’s “canopy”—as in a traditional marriage canopy—denotes his people’s renewal of their covenant with him at that time.

 

6 It shall be a shelter and shade from the heat of the day, a secret refuge from the downpour and from rain.

 

Jehovah’s cloud of glory (v 5) acts as a shelter, shade, and secret refuge from the heat and downpour—that is, from the elements and from the king of Assyria/Babylon in Jehovah’s Day of Judgment (Isaiah 25:4-5). As Pharaoh’s armies were unable to penetrate the cloud when they pursued after Jehovah’s people (Exodus 14:19-20), so in that day will no enemies molest those who participate in Zion’s solemn assemblies. According to the terms of his covenant, Jehovah is obligated to protect his people when they keep his law and word. His divine intervention attests to their utmost compliance.

Forming alliances against Assyria’s aggression—as do Aram and Ephraim (Isaiah 7:1-6)—is to rely on an arm of flesh (Isaiah 20:5-630:1-5), not on Jehovah or on the protection clause of his covenant. Keeping his law and word—the terms of his covenant—provides the only assurance against calamity in Jehovah’s Day of Judgment.

As an ensign to the nations Jehovah’s servant gathers a remnant of Israel and Judah in a new exodus.

Rabbi  Eddie Chumney

“….When the Lord has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and purged the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment and by the spirit of burning, then the LORD will create above every dwelling place of Mount Zion, and above her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night. For over all the glory there will be a covering. And there will be a tabernacle for shade in the daytime from the heat, for a place of refuge, and for a shelter from storm and rain. Isaiah 4:4-6 …”   

 

>>My take on this view:  The “..cloud and smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night..” will be the sign spoken of in Mathew 24:30 which will cause all that have eyes to see and ears to understand that Jesus is the Christ and will also be the fulfillment of Ezekiel 37:15-24.

Notes:

Hosea 1:  Names = Scatter, No mercy and not my people verse 10-11: covenant will be fulfilled when they are gathered in.(extended to all of Gods Children John 1:12, 10:16-17  Other sheep

John 11: Lazarus from the dead is a type of the House of Israel in the latter days

Romans 11:   all shall be grafted into the House of Israel in the last days

Isa 4:5-6 …upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night..

Isa 13: is about the US. Eze 38 Gog/Magog is about Israel and will happen the same time as Isa 13 in the US.  The whole world will look for the US to prevail and Israel be wiped out.  As a sign to all the world just the opposite will happen at the Lords hand.

Isa 66:   Birth of the man child (Christ 1st coming) then comes the birth (restorations) of the House of Israel brining the 2nd coming.

That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,

>>My take on this view:  Seems that Joel thinks this will be limited to an event in Israel (I.E. no exodus will happen in the United States)

“…The Children of Israel, who were brought up from the land of Egypt, had to go through the "Great and Terrible Wilderness" before they were ready to enter the promised land. In the same manner, the believers at the end of the ages will have to go through the Great Tribulation before they are ready to enter the Messianic Kingdom.

This book is the culmination of many years of study by Monte
Judah on the subject of the Greater Exodus. It will redefine your understanding of end-time prophecy. It will conclusively lay out the teaching of the Greater Exodus and give you hope as we approach the end of the ages when the LORD restores the House of Jacob and Messiah Yeshua returns to the earth…”

 

>>My take on this view:  My understanding of Monte Judah’s teaching around this is that only people who understand the Jewish Festivals, as Lion and Lamb ministries teach and observer them (down to the date observed), will participate in this event. There will be multiple groups all across the globe, in every land,  gathering out under the direction of the Lord.
