The Hebrew word sabbath-saved..
( 11 ) Le 23:32 It shall be unto you a sabbath "shabbath" of rest , and ye shall afflict your souls : in the ninth day of the month at even , from even unto even , shall ye celebrate "shabbath"your sabbath "shabbath".
.. .. .. cease ..unto even shall ye cease ..shall ye celebrate our ceasing ..
This verse needs special consideration:
Consider the new Hebrew word here similar to ceasing :-
� "ceasing-saved" Strongs 7677
� "Sabbath" Strongs 7673, 7674
Notice the Hebrew word "ceasing-saved" is similar in letters to "ceasing".
In ancient pictograph the word means "Pressing at Home Marked, securely
across people" The meaning of this type of Sabbath Ceasing is a special
ceasing for a group of saved people. Notice also the Sabbath Ceasing for
people saved, is referenced by moon references of time.
Lets translate the verse for readers :-
Le 23:32 It shall be unto you a ceasing of ceasing-saved, and ye shall afflict your energy: in the ninth (day) of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye cease your ceasing.
Faithful translations are hard to read. But the reader sees the Hebrew faithfully.
Let's translate into more familiar English words, without destroying the Hebrew.
Le 23:32 It shall be unto you a sabbath of sabbath-saved, and ye shall afflict your "soul": in the ninth (day) of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye sabbath your sabbath.
Why does God introduce other sabbaths referenced by seasonal times from the moon ? Are these sabbaths the same as weekly sabbaths ? No, the Hebrew word to describe the sabbath-saved is different to the weekly sabbath. If you read the Leviticus 23 chapter, the references refer to cycles of salvation done for Jesus as festivals throughout the year.
Here are the 11 verses that reference "sabbath-saved" Hebrew word.
Ex 16:23 And he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To morrow is the "sabbath-saved" of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to day, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
Notice this special sabbath occurs AFTER Jesus saves them out from Egypt.
Ex 31:15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of "sabbath-saved" , holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
Notice this special sabbath of salvation carries a death penalty !
Ex 35:2 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of "sabbath-saved" to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.
Le 16:31 It shall be a sabbath of "sabbath-saved" unto you, and ye shall afflict your souls, by a statute for ever.
Notice the sabbath of salvation is referenced by a statute "chuqqah" word.
Le 23:3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of "sabbath-saved" , an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.
Le 23:24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a "sabbath-saved" , a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
Notice the sabbath of salvation is referenced by feasts and festivals.
Le 23:32 It shall be unto you a sabbath of "sabbath-saved" , and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye sabbath your sabbath.
Le 23:39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: on the first day shall be a "sabbath-saved" , and on the eighth day shall be a "sabbath-saved" .
Notice the sabbath of salvation is referenced by happy harvest times !
Le 25:4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of "sabbath-saved" unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.
Notice the sabbath of salvation includes even the land resting from work.
Le 25:5 That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: for it is a year of "sabbath-saved" unto the land.
Notice the sabbath of salvation are special sabbaths created by GOD for memorials to the cycles of seasons to reference the salvation processes. Salvation was not completed in one event in time and place on the Cross. Salvation is a continuous ongoing process for eternity. The sinner is meant to express an attitude of gratitude forever to the Saviour, and these special sabbaths are meant for this. Many Churches today suggest the sabbaths of salvation were abolished on the Cross by Christ. Certainly the sin-offering processes was abolished as the Lamb of God is once for sin-offering, but the sabbath-saved times should remain until all salvation processes are completed. Otherwise Christians feel salvation is a one off event completed at the Cross. The festivals were physical role plays of future real events which would take place. For example the Passover was a memorial pointing forward to Jesus dieing as the Lamb of GOD. Now we should celebrate the Lord's Supper as a memorial pointing fowards when the Lamb of GOD shall eat and drink with His saved at the wedding table in heaven.
Mt 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
Notice the Lord's supper has again a renewed future memorial reference.
I believe Jesus left us enough demonstration here to see in the other festivals of
salvation for other future references to salvation being completed in the next future event.

( 13 ) Le 26:6 And I will give peace in the land , and ye shall lie down , and none shall make you afraid : and I will rid "shabbath"evil beasts out of the land , neither shall the sword go through your land .

( 18 ) Jos 22:25 For the LORD hath made Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad ; ye have no part in the LORD : so shall your children make "shabbath"our children cease "shabbath"from fearing the LORD .
.. .. so shall your children cease ..our children cease from fearing the LORD ..
Notice Hebrew often repeats words....while in English we don't....At least the
KJV is faithful to a literal reading of Hebrew, I wish it was consistent as well in
the Hebrew words. The KJV is the best translation of Hebrew into English and
stood the test of time, despite the inconsistency of translation the Holy Spirit can save any person who humbly reads the Sriptures for they are pure
and holy and true.
If you are saved in Jesus' grace, than enjoy His love flowing through you.
Those who want to drink the deeper meanings of Scripture, can do so here.
God bless our love for GOD. Shalom

..And he ceased the idolatrous priests ,..
