We not only have His written word, but we have commemorative holy days to transmit truth to the young and the old, the literate and the illiterate alike. The holy days tell and show the great truths of God’s salvation, His love, and His plans. They contain things to hear, see, taste, build, and do, and they appeal to everybody. They are “holy days,” but that really means that they are holidays. The celebrations are fun, mostly, but they also teach us about eternal things. From a New Testament perspective, these holidays take on a meaning much richer than the Old Testament saints could have dreamed of. As Paul wrote to the Colossian church: Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day—things which are a mere shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ (Colossians 2: 1. These holidays look back, in time, to miracles that God performed for the world and for the Israelites. They also look forward, in time, to the work of Jesus Christ. Occurring during the spring and fall harvests, they speak of God’s continuous provisions. Together they promise God’s eternal care for His people. This paper tells the story of these events on three levels. The first level discusses how the holidays have been celebrated through the centuries. The second level discusses the sensory elements and how they teach the truth in non- verbal ways. The third level discusses how Jesus Christ fulfilled or will fulfill the substance of each celebration. The Jewish Calendar. Having invited you to the fun, I must ask you to pause to consider the calendar through which these celebrations flow. This is because the Jewish Calendar is very different from ours. There is no January or February to be found. Instead, the Bible refers to “the first month,” “the seventh month,” or names like Abib and Ethanim. There is no quick way to say that, for a particular year, the 1. Abib occurs on the 6th of April. Also, most of you know that October is in the fall, but do you know what season Ethanim occupies? Do you know that the Bible has another name for the month of Abib? I hope that you find this section useful for this and other studies that you do. As I have already stated, the Lord’s “appointed times” occur through the year. The Jews, because they celebrate them every year, can and do anticipate each one in its season. They are a part of their culture. A Jew knows that the Feast of Tabernacles occurs in the fall as readily as we know that Easter occurs in the spring. The placement of these festivals through the year has prophetic significance. To be specific, Jesus’ death and resurrection are the substance of the spring holidays. His return and the establishment of His kingdom are the substance of the fall holidays. In between, there is the summer season of church history. Our calendar, known officially as the Gregorian Calendar, is based on the relative motion of the sun through the heavens. For this reason, it is sometimes called a solar calendar. It takes 3. 65. 2. To keep the start of spring from shifting into February and then January, we insert a leap day every four years. This keeps the calendar and the seasons together. Consequently, the vernal and autumnal equinoxes always occur in March and September respectively. The Jewish Calendar, however, is based on the relative motion of both the moon and the sun. It is, therefore, called a luni- solar calendar. Since it is based on the moon, the first of every month coincides with a new moon and the fifteenth of every month coincides with a full moon. In other words, each month is defined by the phases of the moon. The Jewish Calendar keeps the months and their respective seasons together by the insertion of leap months. This means that most years have twelve months, but some have thirteen. The whole system has a nineteen- year cycle. It is more accurate than our solar calendar, but it’s more difficult to follow. The Jewish calendar does not mark the first day of spring, summer, fall, or winter. The primary markers in the Jewish Calendar are the holidays. The modern Jewish Calendar has its secular and religious forms. The secular calendar begins with the month of Ethanim. The religious calendar begins with the month of Abib. The Bible consistently uses the religious form; i. Abib. Ethanim and Abib are ancient Canaanite names for the first and seventh months respectively. However, beginning with the Babylonian exile, the Jews began using the Babylonian names for the months. Consequently, the post- exilic Biblical authors, Nehemiah and the author of Esther, used the Babylonian names. Today’s Jewish Calendar also uses the Babylonian names. The following table presents these essential ideas: Religious Month. Canaanite Name. Babylonian Name. Gregorian Placement. Leviticus 2. 3 Holiday. First. Abib. Nisan. March or April. Passover; Feast of Unleavened Bread; Wave Offering of First Fruits. Second. Ziv. Iyyar. April or May. Third. Sivan. 12. 3May or June. Pentecost. Fourth. Tammuz. June or July. Fifth. Ab. July or August. Sixth. Elul. August or September. Seventh. Ethanim. Tishri. September or October. Trumpets; Day of Atonement; Feast of Tabernacles. Eighth. Bul. Cheshvan. October or November. Ninth. Chislev. November or December. Tenth. Tebeth. December or January. Eleventh. Shebat. January or February. Twelfth. Adar. February or March. Thirteenth. Adar IIMarch. This is the leap month. Although these technical details may sound dry, they have important implications in certain passages of scripture. For example, Passover begins on the fourteenth day of the month of Abib. Since the months, in the Jewish Calendar, follow the phases of the moon, we know that this must be a full moon. The darkness that fell over the earth when Jesus was crucified could not, therefore, have been an eclipse of the sun. It had to be, therefore, of supernatural origin. The important thing for us to note for this study of Leviticus 2. Abib, occurs sometime during March or April and the seventh month, Ethanim, occurs sometime during September or October. To get back to the study at hand, Leviticus 2. Sabbath. It then describes several spring celebrations (Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Wave Offering of First Fruits, and Pentecost). It then moves on to describe several fall celebrations (Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Tabernacles). The Weekly Holy Day. Sabbath (Shabbat. For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day there is a Sabbath of complete rest, a holy convocation. You shall not do any work; it is a Sabbath to the Lord in all your dwellings” (Leviticus 2. Thus the heavens and the earth were completed, and all their hosts. By the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made (Genesis 2: 1- 3). Sabbath means “rest.” The Sabbath celebration, spoken of in Leviticus 2. God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it. That is, he separated it from the others in kind and character. Because He rested after six days of labor, He enjoins His people to do likewise. Thus, the Sabbath becomes a weekly reminder that God is the creator of all things. Whenever I read of God resting on the seventh day, I imagine Him reflecting on and enjoying the work that He had done. Obviously, this is an anthropomorphic sentiment, but it helps me understand the intended purpose of this day. As it was for God, so it can be for our children and for us. It is a day of rest from the fast pace of the week. It is a day to reflect on God and His creation. It is a day to reflect on the week’s activities. It is a day to worship and express thanks. It is a day to do good to our neighbors. The Jewish Sabbath liturgy invokes images of not only the creation, but also the moment by moment sustaining of it by God’s almighty hand. As Colossians says, “in Him all things hold together.”Blessed are you, O Lord our God, King of the universe, who at your word brings on the evening twilight, with wisdom opens the gates of the heavens, and with understanding changes time and varies the seasons, and arranges the stars in their watches in the sky, according to your will. You create day and night; you roll away the light from before the darkness, and the darkness from before the light; you make the day to pass and the night to approach, and divide the day from the night. The Lord of hosts is your name; a God living and enduring continually. May you reign over us for ever and ever. Blessed are you, O Lord, who brings on the evening twilight. Common Christian culture, until recent times, observed Sunday as a special day. It, too, was to be different from other days. Given the Sabbath’s roots in the creation rather than the Law, this seems appropriate. Opinion. We've noticed you're adblocking. We rely on advertising to help fund our award- winning journalism.

Mayo Clinic Diet- Fad Diet Version By Mizpah Matus B. Hlth. Sc(Hons)The Mayo Clinic Diet continues to cause considerable confusion. This is not an “official” Mayo Clinic Diet. The Mayo Clinic health center (based in Rochester, USA) categorically states that it had never endorsed any diet plan until December 2. Mayo Clinic Plan was available via the Internet. The clinic does however provide a number of guidelines for healthy eating – including the new Mayo Clinic Healthy Weight Pyramid (aka Mayo Clinic Food Pyramid). What is the unofficial “Mayo Clinic Diet”? What was supposedly the Mayo Clinic Diet is a fad or crash diet. It is based around grapefruit, lots of salad and protein, and little carbohydrates. Weight loss was supposed to be in the region of 5. Mayo Clinic Diet – Meal Plan. This is a copy of the fad diet – and it IS NOT RECOMMENDED. Representatives from the Mayo Clinic have disavowed this diet. From the Medical Edge Newsletter July 2. Versions of a Mayo Clinic Diet have been circulating for decades. Most push grapefruit, eggs, cabbage soup or meat and promise dramatic weight loss. None of these diets is associated with or has been endorsed by Mayo Clinic.”1. Breakfast. 1/2 Grapefruit or 4 oz. Grapefruit Juice (unsweetened)2 Eggs (any style)2 Slices Bacon. Lunch. 1/2 Grapefruit or 4 oz. Grapefruit Juice (unsweetened)Meat (any style, any amount)Salad (any kind of dressing)Dinner. Grapefruit or 4 oz. Grapefruit Juice (unsweetened)Meat (any style, any amount) (fish may be substituted for meat)Vegetables (any green, yellow, or red vegetables cooked in butter or any seasoning)Bed Time Snack. Skim milk. Vegetables Allowed. Red onions, green onions, bell peppers, radishes, cucumbers, broccoli, spinach, lettuce, cabbage, carrots, peas. Vegetables to Avoid White onions, potatoes, celery. Instructions. At any meal you may eat until you are full – until you can’t eat any more. Don’t eliminate anything from the diet, especially don’t skip bacon at breakfast or omit salads. It is the combination of foods that burn fat. The grapefruit is important because it acts as a catalyst that starts the burning process. Cut down on caffeine – it affects the insulin balance that hinders the burning process. Try to limit to 1 cup per meal at mealtime. Don’t eat between meals. If you eat the combination of food suggested you will not be hungry. Note that the diet completely eliminates sugar and starches, which are lipids and form fat. Fat doesn’t form fat; it helps burn it. You can fry food in butter and use butter generously on vegetables. Do not eat desserts, bread, and white vegetables or sweet potatoes. You may double or triple helpings of meat, salad, or vegetables. Eat until you are stuffed. The more you eat of the proper combination of food, the more you lose. See Also Mayo. Clinic.

There is a lot of more information out there, but I will try to keep it short and to the point. My meals are very artless so I don’t occupy my precious life cooking, although in the beginning you might have to. I do all my cooking in the morning, example for Day 4): a pot of 3 pounds of chili turkey, garlic, cumin, sea salt, coconut oil, and a salad, seasoned with oil and salt or lime if your body is ok with it. Google “Candida diet” for allowed foods. It can be frustrating from all the poles apart info out there, because everyone says something different. But, they all might be right. Our bodies are different and what works for a group of people might not work for another. Keep searching, reading, and testing foods, eventually you will create your own. It’s a quest to “knowing yourself.” Some people with Candida tolerate wheat more than others, go figure. It’s a trial error, don’t give up. Every little bit helps. I would like to put some time in writing about “how much can we eat.” With candida it’s necessary; we don’t want to feed the beast. With carbohydrates such as yucca, some doctors and candida experts recommend 3. More can exacerbate candida, at least in the beginning. And for fruits it is recommended no more than a cup of fruit a day. As your immune system recovers your gut will heal, and the allergies and symptoms will be reduced. But, that can take a while. We don’t want to aggravate the gut or the internal constancy with allergy foods. At one point I was so ill that I was covered with a candida patch all over my body. I did 0 carbs for 6 months, and fasted once a week to rest and heal my gut. I took 8 drops of oregano oil a day (not recommended!). The problem in approaching Candida with such intensity is that the toxins from the die off are severe to the body. But I am young and fit and that helped me not to die from the die off. If you are a senior or a child I don’t vouch for this approach, because you will spend most of the days exhausted, fogy minded, joint pain, scratching, wrinkled skin, and maybe die along with Candida. Thankfully now I am at 1. I increased the carbs very carefully and slowly. I am at a state where I can manage, and I have felt a few spurts of healing within my immune system. Although, I still keep my fruit intake to about a cup a day, and eat low sugar fruits (all types of berries, green apples. Use this diet as an elimination diet, too. This might have to be a life style for you. Read about “Elimination Diet.”I have gone off my program a couple times, because I felt great, then I was reminded why I was in it in the first place. Candida comes back- slowly. When I cheat I do it by incorporating a cheat food into my program. For example, for one of the days with sweet potato I buy Organic Sweet Potato Chips. Or on beef day, I eat Organic Hotdogs (Trader Joe’s) with no preservatives, sugars, nitrates etc. This diet is my own, see what works for you. Your food allergies might be different from mine, or not. For example, I react to all nightshades, and high sugar fruits like grapes, watermelon, which most people with Candida do. I try to stay away from packed, wrapped, sealed, boxed, zipped, bagged, tinned, or canned foods. If I do, I buy it Organic with NO other ingredients, BPA free and chemical free packaging. Another example is minced Garlic in a glass jar, with only citric acid. If it’s organic I feel better buying it, as long as the ingredients have no fillers, colors, or preservatives etc. If in doubt call the manufacturer. The key is to bring the body to homeostasis so the immune system can control/kill the bug. After being on the diet faithfully, you can introduce other foods in large quantities- to test the results. But unless you are strict with your program it’s hard to tell which food is giving you a certain reaction. Only you can find out what types of foods you are allergic to. Most allergy tests are not complete, because they don’t cover all food types, but getting tested helps. I suggest to Google Candida Diet for examples, and as a tool to help you decide what you might be allergic to. You can begin by choosing 1 veggie, and 1 fruit a day, that you are not allergic to. Be strict, wait a couple weeks, and then begin introducing other foods one by one. Testing each food for 4 days to see any results, then try another, and wait 4 days. It’s hard in the beginning, but it’s worth it. Repetitive eating of the same foods, day after day is a major cause of food allergies. The rotation diet helps rebuild the immune system by reducing stress, and damage to our gut. To help organize my food rotation, I bought four big plastic containers each one representing a day and I placed all the foods for that day in each container. You can also use a simple color code system, a color representing each day. Here are some example results of some symptoms: Russet potatoes; brown color under the eyes, & temples, tired, itchy neck, and had skin inflammation especially around my neck. Nightshades; give me a dark sharp line under the eyes, itchy eyes and neck that lasted 5 days. Vinegar; bad inflammation and bad wrinkles around my eyes. Grains and legumes; give me dry thick leather like feeling around my neck, wrinkles, and joint inflammation, itching, eczema breakouts, and fatigue, although I have found I can tolerate rice a lot better now. If I eat over 1 cup of a high sugar fruit like grapes, I itch around my neck, back, arms, behind my knees, and perspire. Corn; gives me an itchy scalp, dandruff, hair falls, wrinkles all over, itchy swollen neck, eczema breakouts, stomach inflammation, and I perspire. Vitamin C powder; inflammation, wrinkle, & pink around my eyes. Stevia; so far so good. Sugar Free Organic Strawberry Jam from Trader Joe’s, sweetened with Xylitol, no noticeable reaction yet. Ingredients: Strawberries, Xylitol, water, Pectin Powder, Citric Acid. And, they say Xylitol actually helps fight Candida. Sorbitol sweetener is not recommended, it’s an aggravator. A holistic approach is the best tactic and includes mind, and body. As you eliminated foods that you recognize you are allergic to, start eliminating negative stress in your life. They say it is the number 1 cause of disease, I agree. I find this to be true in my case. Work with a counselor to help manage stress. We can’t place our whole emotional burden on our families. For some of us, if we could do it with the same methods we’ve practiced, we would have gotten well a long time ago. I got well through continuous therapy, diet, and being persistent in change. I also had to get away from negative environments in order for my mind and spirit to heal. I have learned that negative environments are contagious, and we will become ill if exposed to them long enough. Also, people usually are part of a negative environment. Some therapists will take you for a sliding fee ($1. Even once every other week helps. Look for a therapist you are comfortable with. Leaky Gut (intestinal permeability) is the reason for our allergies. The way I understand we get a leaky gut is when Candida mutates into its stronger forms damaging the stomach lining creating holes. Undigested food particles pass through the separation between cells and enter directly into our blood stream and our immune system recognizes it as foreign, hence reacts as such. Pharmaceutical companies are in a weapons race against Candida, because it keeps getting stronger, since it reproduces so fast it’s able to adapt to stronger antibiotics. But yeast becomes Candida when our immune system is weak. Candida comes back slowly so I am vigilant, and will stop or reduce it if I feel any reaction. Fish twice a week as long as they are different species. I am able to tolerate lentils to a degree. Although, if you want to get rid of your allergies eliminate legumes and grains for a while, because they are difficult to digest and are antagonistic. If you find yourself not able to live without grains and legumes, include them on one of your days. I keep my seasonings to a minimum; I also had to eliminate many spices. I drink lots of water to eliminate the toxins that Candida expels daily. The toxins are what make us sick. Also, we need a healthy elimination regularly, because that’s where we get rid of the bug. I gave up sugar except in fruit. No cane sugar, honey, molasses, syrups, sodas, ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, toppings, dressings, veggie juices, nut butters with added sugars, Jams, fruit juices, any packaging with sugar, frozen dinners, breads with added sugar. Jams are almost pure sugar. There are Organic Jams that have Xylitol sweetener. Try it out and see how you react. Fundamental Diet: Day 1) Organic ground beef & wild caught salmon, sweet potato, lettuce, arugula& green apple. Avocado oil. Dar 2) Organic chicken, yucca, cabbage, onion, and strawberries. Organic olive oil. Day 3) Wild caught sole fish, rice/lentils, spinach, carrots, oregano herb, and blueberries. Grape seed oil. Day 4) No antibiotics or hormones ground- turkey, plantains, organic broccoli, mushrooms, garlic, and mango. Then, I place 1. 5 drops of an essential oil into the same container with the 3. Now you have 3. 0 servings. That’s half a drop of essential oil in each . I buy my supplements online it’s a lot cheaper. If you want the concoction a little stronger, you can increase the dosage to 3. I keep it very low, for long term use. Some people use a lot more as a dietary supplement, but I use only what I need. I rotate my e. oils every month with Organic; Oregano, Frankincense, and Thyme Oil. For a more mild natural antibiotic concoction instead of the strong Oregano, you can mix 5. Organic Cinnamon/Peppermint oils, as an example. In my opinion these are safe ingestible oils; some are toxic period, and all are toxic in large amounts. All supplements and oils have side effects if used improperly. If you are taking prescription medications, see your doctor for any possible interactions.
