    The Levitical Choir and Songs

  • The Levitical Choir and Songs

    The Levitical Choir and Songs

    Within the Temple the music was assigned to the domain of certain Levitical families as described in I Chronicles 9 and supporting information found in the Mishnah, Tosefta and both editions of the Talmud. Within the Levitical families that supplied the music there were two groupings, those that played musical instruments and those that sang. Beneath the Ezrat Yisrael (Court of Israel), the extreme eastern sub courtyard within the Azarah were chambers where the Choir and Musicians practiced. These chambers had doors from the Ezrat Nashim (Court of the Women) where the choir enter and exited. Because of the need for perfection in the songs the choir and musicians had chambers within two of the corner buildings adjoining the Azarah. These buildings were on the Southeast Corner (Beit Avtinas) and Northeast Corner (Beit haNitzotz). They were know as the Lishkot Peturim (Chambers of the Exempt Ones – I Chronicles 9). They had this name as due to the time consuming work of bringing the songs to perfection, they were exempt from all other responsibilities. The chambers were in the non-sanctified sections of the building (the end closest to the Cheil) on their respective sides. This allowed the Choir and musicians to be able to sleep during their week of duty.

    The Choir and Musicians stood upon the Dukhan. This was a platform of three steps 135 cubits from south to north, and 2 1/2 cubits deep. The Dukhan was facing the East rather than towards the west and the Holy of Holies. This indicates that the songs were from Hashem to the people. The minyan for the Dukhan was 12. Young sons below Bar Mitzvah age stood in front of their fathers to add sweetness to the song. The Choir would serve one week in the first half of the year and one week in the second. In addition the Choir would be present for all of the Chaggim (Festivals).

    The Choir played and sang specific songs for the Day of the week as well as ccertain songs to accompany different ceremonies. When not in the Temple their year was spent in practicing for the specific songs that would be used during their time in the Temple. The restoration of the song of the Temple is one of the most exciting aspects of what is happening in today’s world.

  • Newsletter May 2014

     

    Shalom to all of our Members,

    I have a number of important announcements to make in this newsletter and I hope that in spite of its length you will look over it. As many of you know we have had difficulties just lately with the download feature as well as a few other problems. The reason for these difficulties is that we had to change to a faster and larger Server. Victor Schultz who manages the Site for us has worked hard to get everything running smoothly. He sent me a message today stating that within a few days everything should work without a hitch. Thank you for your patience.

    New Features:

    The Upgrade Button – we did not realize till one of our members pointed out to us that there was no way to Upgrade to a higher level. This is now corrected and the Upgrade button is in the dropdown menu below Membership Options.

    Photo Gallery:

    Last week we added a Photo Gallery button that takes you to Photo Galleries that accompany specific teachings. So far I have only posted one Gallery – to accompany my weekly two hour radio program on www.hebrewnationradio.com called “Measure the Pattern”,  on the Temple. This first Gallery is called “A Day in the Temple”, where we discuss the daily services and how they were conducted. I hope to add new galleries to accompany this show regularly. There will be other galleries to also accompany other teachings along the way. This Gallery is available to all Members. At times there will be larger galleries that are only available to our Silver and Gold Members. You can access the Photo Galleries from the Navigation Bar under the All Teachings Menu. Each picture can be enlarged by clicking on it again.

    Speaking Engagement in Colorado May 18th

    On Sunday May 18th I will be speaking on the Temple in Calahan Colorado. The session will start at noon and continue till we play out. If you are interested in attending please email Janice  Cutter janice7@elpasotel.net to get details. At 4 PM Colorado time Gene Porter will do our program “Measure the Pattern” on whether Jewish and non-Jewish believers in Yeshua continued to worship in the Temple with sacrifices after the Resurrection of Yeshua. We will talk about whether or not non-Jewish believers should walk in Torah or whether this is totally optional or not. We will also discuss whether Yeshua offered sacrifices, including the Korban Hataat (the Sin Offering), and many other topics. You can call in with questions and if there can ask questions from the floor. Hope some of you can make it.

    Temple Conference in Lancaster, California

    August 1-3 there will be a Conference on the Temple in Lancaster California. Rico Cortes and Diana Dye will be joining me. This conference should be outstanding. It is necessary to register for the conference. Please make every effort to attend as I know this will change your life. Check out the details and make your reservation at www.thetempleconfernce.com. Let me know in the comments section to this newsletter your intentions on being there so I can make suggestions on how to prepare and maximize your learning experience.

    “Measure the Pattern” Radio Program

    For the last six weeks I have co-hosted a program on the Temple with Gene Porter. This can be heard live each Sunday at 5 PM Central Time on www.hebrewnationradio.com. You can call in with questions as the program is in progress. I love this program as each week we are presenting material that most of our listeners have never heard. I encourage you to become a faithful listener. The great news is that we post the podcast of the program each week so you can listen again and again and take your notes. This is available to all of our members.

    Chavurah

    Each week I teach a live class over the internet known as Chavurah. It starts at 7 PM Central time. Go to www.hatikva.org and click on the “live video feed”. You can type in questions and comments as the class is in progress. This is posted each week for our Gold Members. From the post you can access the program at your own convenience.

    Mishpachah, Promise of the father, and Footsteps of the Messiah.

    Several years ago my wife Debbie had a weekly program called Mishpachah. These programs are now being uploaded for our Silver and Gold Members. Please let me know what you think of these insights of how to bring Torah into your home. Also I did hundreds of programs on different networks in the last 25 years. These programs are now being uploaded also. Right now the series I did on the book of Isaiah is now being added for our viewers.

    DVD’s

    Many of our DVD sets such as the Eight Part – The second Babylon, Six Part – First Enoch, Two Part – The Lost Key and many other DVD’s are on the site with many more scheduled to be added in the next few months. One DVD a month will be available to our Bronze Members.

    MP3’s

    Hundreds of hours of teachings on Paul, Replacement Theology, Temple Ceremonies and much more are already on the site. All of these teachings are available to our Gold Members for download while our Silver Members can listen or view depending on the format. Hundreds of hours more are slated to go up in the next few months. Two MP3’s (One topical) are available each month for our Bronze Members.

    Israel Trip

    Join us on our next trip to Israel. The theme is “Battlegrounds of Prophecy.” We will tour ancient and modern battle sites all over Israel. At each site there will be studies on the various enemies encountered, the weapons, tactics and strategies used and apply these to our own lives in understanding spiritual warfare. In addition, many of these sites are prophesied to be the site of future conflicts during the Chevlai Mashiach (the Birthpains of the Messiah). We will leave Israel with an understanding of that future seven year period that will change the world. Check out the Brochure and let us know if you are interested in going. http://hatikva.org/tours/2015-hatikva-israel-tour-brochure.

    An Intensive Eight Courses on the Temple

    For years I have grieved over the lack of knowledge most believers have concerning the Holy Temple. This is tragic as almost all of our scriptures are related and stand on an understanding of the Temple. While conferences and radio programs are important and helpful, they fall far short of what is really needed to bring this knowledge to believers.

    At the urging of some close friends and colleagues I have developed what I believe is a very complete course of study on the Temple. Instead of one course on the Temple there are actually eight courses each studying a different aspect of the Temple. There are 13 classes to each course. A two hour DVD as well as written material, a glossary of related terminology and a test will accompany each class. You must complete the first course before you can advance to the second and so on.

    The courses will be sold for a price and can be purchased without being a member of Jerusalem Temple Study. However, our Gold Members will receive a coupon with a code they enter that gives them free access to all eight courses. Our Silver Members will receive a Coupon giving them 25% off while our Bronze Members will receive a coupon giving them 10% off. Each course retails for $300. If you are interested in taking this course I really recommend that you become a Gold Member. There are 8 Courses, 104 lessons, 209 hours of video and more.

    Below is a schedule of the Classes. We start filming the first lessons as soon as I return from Colorado. As soon as we have four lessons completed we will start posting the lessons for you to begin your studies.

    The Ministration of the Priests and Akeldama

  • A Day in the Temple

    These are some of the pictures, and diagrams to help in your understanding of the services of a day. There were three major courtyards, the Outer Court or Rehov, two major Inner Courts surrounded by a low stone wall known as the Soreg. Within the Soreg were steps leading up to a platform that surrounded the Inner Courtyards known as the Cheil (10 cubits wide). The first of the Inner Courtyards was known as the Court of the Women (Ezrat Nashim). Fifteen steps led up to the most important and highest level courtyard known as the Azarah. Within this courtyard were two sub-courtyards, the Court of Israel (Ezrat Yisrael) and the Court of the Priests (Ezrat Kohanim). Between the two sub-courtyards there was a platform with 3 steps known as the Dukhan where the Levitical Choir and musicians stood. Within the Ezrat Kohanim was the Altar and Ramp, as well as the Slaughterhouse. There were 12 steps that led up to the Temple Building. The Temple Building had three major parts, The Ulam or Porch, the haKodesh or Holy Place, and the Kodesh haKodashim (Holy of Holies). The Ulam had an entrance that was 8 stories high. There was a veil over this known as the “Heavens.” Within the haKodesh (Holy Place) was the Menorah (south), the Mizbeiach Zahav (Golden altar of Incense – west), and Shulchan Lechhem haPanim (Bread of the Face – north). Between the haKodesh and Kodesh haKodashim were two veils known as the Parochet. Above the haKodesh and Kodesh haKodashim with two rooms of the same dimensions with a single veil between them. Around the haKodesh and Kodesh haKodashim in three floors were 38 small offices known as the Taim. There were 13 gates into the Azarah. Four on the south, three on the east, four on the north, and two on the west. The corner buildings were 100 coubits deep and 50 cubits wide. Two of the four gates on the south ran through these buildings and two of the gates on the north ran through these buildings. The size of the middle gates on the south and north were 50 cubits deep. Behind the Temple building there was a building (100 by 50 cubits) known as the Parbar, Gizrah, and Gerar in different texts.
