Passover and Yeshua
"When the time came, Yeshua and the emissaries reclined at the table, and he said to them, "I have really wanted so much to celebrate this Seder with you before I die!" (Luke 22:14-15).
In the recent years, I have begun to hear believers in Yeshua say that he didn't actually celebrate the Passover with his disciples. After all, how could he be the sacrifice and celebrate the 'appointed time' with a sacrifice? There are big-name ministries suggesting that he celebrated at another time and even creating whole feasts because of this idea which ultimately makes null and void Yeshua becoming the 'sacrificial lamb' at Passover. The confusion lies in the many traditions that have developed over the centuries regarding Passover coupled with a lot of ignorance and even some arrogance from the nations who have joined Isra'el by separating themselves from the Jewish people, the natural branches.
Did Yeshua really celebrate Passover with his disciples? I tend to take the Scriptures more literally and when Yeshua says that he really wanted to celebrate this particular Passover with his disciples, it was what he meant and did. He was not wishful thinking (another argument I have heard). As indicated by Sha'ul, Yeshua actually celebrated the Passover, was betrayed and then died.
"For what I received from the Lord is just what I passed on to you — that the Lord Yeshua, on the night he was betrayed, took bread; 2 and after he had made the b'rakhah [blessing] he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you. Do this as a memorial to me"; likewise also the cup after the meal, saying, "This cup is the New Covenant effected by my blood; do this, as often as you drink it, as a memorial to me" (1 Corinthians 11:23-25).
In the beginning, God created days from evening to evening. This means that a 'day' actually began at sunset. This year, 2020, Passover is April 8 and sunset begins at 7:03 p.m. in Jerusalem (for those who need specifics). That's when the 'day' begins and at the next sunset 7:04 p.m. that 'day' will end.
In the days of the Temple during that 24-hour time period, there were two sacrifices – the morning sacrifice and the evening. The evening sacrifice was actually done at 3 p.m. before the next day began. So, with this little bit of knowledge, let's look at the Passover, the original one in Exodus.
When Moshe told the Israelites to take a lamb and put its blood on the doorposts, it would have had to be before sunset on the 14th day of the month. Why? Because by sunset beginning the 14th day of the month, the families should have been their homes with the blood on the doorposts, eating the lamb, the unleavened bread, and bitter herbs. They would have remained in their homes until morning after God delivered the last plague upon Egypt – the death of the firstborn.
Sometime during the daytime of the 14th, Pharaoh told Moshe to leave, to take the Hebrews/mixed multitude and get them out of his country. They loaded up their belongings, took plunder from the Egyptians and left the land of their slavery. By the evening, they were heading toward freedom and the Land of Promise. The memorial to this specific event is the 15th day of the month (Exodus 12). Hence days of Matzah when their bread didn't rise.
Fast forward to the Passover of Yeshua. In Luke 22:8, he told his disciples to go prepare for the Passover. Everyone who celebrates the Biblical holy days knows the daytime before the sunset arrives is known as a 'preparation day.' So on or around 3 p.m. on the 13th day of the month, there was a sacrifice of a lamb for the seder meal, the sacrifice of preparation.
After sunset, beginning the 14th day of the month, Yeshua reclined at the table with his disciples. He shared one cup of wine with them and they shared it with each other. He explained the sacrifice required to institute the promised new covenant with a second cup of wine and unleavened bread. During the evening meal, Judas leaves. Yeshua and his disciples spend the evening on the Mount of Olives. They sleep. He prays. Judas returns with soldiers who take him to the Sanhedrin to be tried as a criminal, blasphemer.
During the early morning hours, the leaders of Isra'el take Yeshua to Pilate who washes his hands of the ordeal and sends them to Herod. Herod sends him back to Pilate who offers Barabbas to be killed, but the people cry out for Yeshua's death. By noon, he is taken to Golgotha and hung on the cross. He dies, as the Passover lamb of God, at the evening sacrifice on the 14th day of the month, 3 p.m. Voilá. He can celebrate the Passover and be the sacrificial Lamb.
Because it is 'preparation day' for the sabbath of Unleavened Bread, he is removed from the cross and buried quickly. As a memorial to the days of Matzah, our sinless Savior is set free from this life to become in three days' time the Firstfruits of those who are raised from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:20). The mention of Sabbath in Luke 22 regarding Unleavened Bread cannot be the weekly Sabbath. If it had been, Yeshua would not have been in the tomb three days and three nights and would have effectively nullified his own prophecy using Jonah in the belly of the whale. The sabbath mentioned is the 'sabbath' of the beginning of Unleavened Bread as the Feasts of the LORD were called 'sabbaths'.
In order for Yeshua to fulfill the 'appointed times' of his Father, he had to celebrate/become them as they are written in the Scriptures. Though there are many variations today, like Matzah and Passover being one unified celebration, how it happened in the time of Moshe must concur with the memorials described in the Scriptures for Yeshua's death, burial, and resurrection.
"Go into the city, to so-and-so," he replied, "and tell him that the Rabbi says, 'My time is near, my talmidim and I are celebrating Pesach at your house" (Matthew 26:18).
The word 'time' in this verse is the Greek kairos and means 'opportunity,' 'fitting time,' or 'season.' The NIV translates the the word as 'appointed time,' following the idea of 'season' or moed pointing to the Feasts of the LORD. The Amplified Bible states clearly that Yeshua is to keep the 'appointed time' of Passover with his disciples.
"He said, "Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, 'The Teacher says, "My time [to suffer and atone for sin] is near; I am to keep the Passover at your house with My disciples" (Matthew 26:18 AMP).
In These Days
With so many non-Jews entering the Commonwealth of Isra'el, it is important to know and understand the Scriptural foundation for the Feasts of the LORD and Yeshua's centrality to them all. It is also important to know and understand the Jewish traditions that have developed over the centuries and discard them if they nullify a commandment (Mark 17, Isaiah 29:13). However, it is also important that when non-Jews begin to discern the difference between helpful traditions or nullifying traditions that we do not create new traditions or doctrines that effectively nullify the very commandments we are trying to obey.
For example, without a Temple there can be no sacrificial lamb. This doesn't mean you can't eat lamb at Passover, but it does mean you should not sacrifice a lamb for Passover. There is only one place for sacrifice and that is the Temple in Jerusalem. Until there is a Temple in Jerusalem, no sacrificing lambs or goats or anything else. Another example, when the Hebrews ate their Passover meal, they were told to have their staffs in hand and sandals on their feet in order to leave quickly. By the time of Yeshua, the children of Isra'el reclined at their tables because they were no longer enslaved. To wear sandals and hold a staff is a wonderful teaching tool, but if we have been set free from sin and death through the blood of the Lamb, we should relax and enjoy the seder, even reclining if you are so inclined.
Finally, may we never forget that Isra'el was called to be a light to the nations and from them came the Light of the World. It is possible to embrace the traditions of the Jewish people (without breaking any commandments) and learn more about the God of Isra'el and His Son, Yeshua of Nazareth by celebrating the Passover with a seder. As non-Jews, we are called to make them envious of the Light of the World, and we cannot do that if we are implementing all manner of nonsense into the 'appointed times' as they were given by Elohim.
"Get rid of the old hametz, so that you can be a new batch of dough, because in reality you are unleavened. For our Pesach lamb, the Messiah, has been sacrificed. So let us celebrate the Seder not with leftover hametz, the hametz of wickedness and evil, but with the matzah of purity and truth" (1 Corinthians 5:7-8).

Passover or Communion?
During one of our family Shabbat studies, my daughter asked, "Why do some churches drink wine first and then give you bread while others offer the bread first and then drink the wine?" What a powerful question from an eight-year-old child. We wanted to answer her question honestly so we read Luke 22 and the account of Yeshua and 'communion.'
"Then, taking a cup of wine, he [Yeshua] made the blessing and said, 'Take this and share it among yourselves. For I tell you that from now on, I will not drink the 'fruit of the vine' until the Kingdom of God comes.' Also, taking a piece of matzah [unleavened bread], he made the blessing, broke it, gave it to them and said, 'This is my body, which is being given for you; do this in memory of me.' He did the same with the cup after the meal, saying, 'This cup is the New Covenant, ratified by my blood, which is being poured out for you' (Luke 22:17-20 CJB).
After reading Luke's account of Yeshua's last supper, we saw there were two cups of wine, one before eating the bread and one after. Backing up to read the verses from Luke in context,
"Then came the day of matzah [unleavened bread], on which the Passover lamb had to be killed. Yeshua sent Peter and John, instructing them, "Go and prepare our Seder, so we can eat." They asked him, "Where do you want us to prepare it?" He told them, "As you're going into the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house he enters, and say to its owner, 'The Rabbi says to you, "Where is the guest room, where I am to eat the Pesach [Passover] meal with my disciples?" 'He will show you a large room upstairs already furnished; make the preparations there." They went and found things just as Yeshua had told them they would be, and they prepared for the Seder. When the time came, Yeshua and the emissaries reclined at the table, and he said to them, "I have really wanted so much to celebrate this Seder with you before I die! For I tell you, it is certain that I will not celebrate it again until it is given its full meaning in the Kingdom of God" (Luke 22:7-16).
By putting the two cups of wine and bread in context, we noticed more details. Yeshua was celebrating a Passover with all of its traditional preparations. It was a unique Passover and Yeshua desired to celebrate it with his disciples because he would not celebrate the feast again until wt was fulfilled in the Kingdom. Understood in its context, Yeshua wasn't instituting 'communion;' he was officiating a traditional Jewish seder.
The Hebrew word seder means 'order.' In a Passover seder there is an order to telling the account of the Exodus from Egypt. It includes remembering the plagues, the blood of the lamb, and the death of the firstborn. While celebrating this memorial to God's deliverance of His people from Egypt's darkness into His Light, Yeshua instituted the new covenant. Since our family had already been celebrating the Passover for several years, we understood the significance of the two cups of wine and the unleavened bread.
The first cup of wine was shared among the disciples which unified them and set them apart as Yeshua's beloved Bride. This is known as sanctification and the first cup of wine in a Passover seder is called the Cup of Sanctification.
Along with some unleavened bread or matzah, a second cup of wine is consumed after the meal. This is known as the Cup of Justification. It is through the broken body (the unleavened bread of affliction) and the blood of Yeshua that we are justified and redeemed back to God. This is the 'cup and bread' used in communion.
From my daughter's initial question came other questions: Why doesn't communion include two cups of wine when it's recorded that Yeshua used two cups of wine? Where did the idea of communion come from when Yeshua was specifically celebrating a Passover seder and we are told to do the same by Sha'ul:
"Get rid of the old hametz [soured dough], so that you can be a new batch of dough, because in reality you are unleavened. For our Pesach lamb, the Messiah, has been sacrificed. So let us celebrate the [Passover] Seder not with leftover hametz, the hametz of wickedness and evil, but with the matzah of purity and truth" (1 Corinthians 5:7-8).
Origins of Communion or the Lord's Supper
"Because Christ himself is present in the sacrament of the altar, he is to be honored with the worship of adoration. "To visit the Blessed Sacrament is … a proof of gratitude, an expression of love, and a duty of adoration toward Christ our Lord" (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1418).
The Blessed Sacrament is a devotional term used in the Roman catholic church that refers to communion. It is further delineated as eucharist which specifically means the bread and wine transubstantiates into the body and blood of Christ. The key term here is 'transubstantiates' which means that the bread and wine actually turn into the substance of the body and blood of Christ and only the appearance of bread and wine remain.
According to the catholic church, the eucharist or communion is not a memorial to the work of Christ on the cross, but a repeat of his sacrifice each time the eucharist is taken. First Corinthians 10:16 is often used as the proof verse:
"Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Messiah? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Messiah?" (1 Corinthians 10:16).
However, this verse only describes what the wine and bread represent symbolically – a connection or relationship with fellow believers and with Messiah. It is not meant to be given some specific title like blessed sacrament or communion. A more accurate rendering of the verse would be:
"The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not the fellowship of the blood of Messiah? The bread that we break, is it not the fellowship of the body of Messiah?"
'communion' is koinonia which means "fellowship." There is no Scriptural basis for the terms 'The Lord's Supper' or 'Communion' when describing Yeshua's last evening with his disciples. When believers eat unleavened bread and drink wine remembering Yeshua's sacrificial atonement, the correct Scriptural description is called Passover. After all, it was the blood of the lamb that allowed the firstborn of Israel to live! The Scriptures also make it clear that Yeshua's sacrifice was once and for all time; it is not a repetitive act.
"For Messiah also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit" (1 Peter 3:18).
"The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God" (Romans 6:10).
The Proclamation
"For what I received from the Lord is just what I passed on to you — that the Lord Yeshua, on the night he was betrayed, took bread; and after he had made the blessing he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you. Do this as a memorial to me"; likewise also the cup after the meal, saying, "This cup is the New Covenant effected by my blood; do this, as often as you drink it, as a memorial to me." For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord, until he comes. "Therefore, whoever eats the Lord's bread or drinks the Lord's cup in an unworthy manner will be guilty of desecrating the body and blood of the Lord!" (1 Corinthians 11:23-26).
Sha'ul states in 1 Corinthians 11 that every time we celebrate by drinking wine and eating unleavened bread, we are not only proclaiming Yeshua's death until he returns, but we are participating in a Passover memorial. Never once in my years of growing up in the Lutheran church did I understand or know that part of my communion experience. Not once. This is because ALL communion sacraments have catholic roots and are always about sacrifice and death, not hope in the resurrection or proclaiming Messiah until he returns.
The Memorial Goes Deeper
Sha'ul also says that all who drink the cup in an unworthy manner desecrate the body and blood of the Lord. Could it be the eucharist is really "trampling underfoot the blood of Messiah and insulting the grace of God" and holds great punishment? (Hebrews 10:29).
"So let a person examine himself first, and then he may eat of the bread and drink from the cup; for a person who eats and drinks without recognizing the body [of Messiah] eats and drinks judgment upon himself. This is why many among you are weak and sick, and some have died! If we would examine ourselves, we would not come under judgment" (1 Corinthians 11:27-31).
As a Jew, Sha'ul understood the significance of the Cup of Sanctification. If we do not examine ourselves and recognize the body of Messiah – both as Yeshua as well as his body of believers – we bring judgment upon ourselves. How we treat our brothers and sisters in the Kingdom, the Body of Messiah, has a direct result on how weak and sick we become; how we may even die an early death! This is a judgment because we don't examine our motives or our actions within the community of believers.
As those who have experienced the institutional communion, there is only one cup ever consumed and that is the Cup of Justification, not the Cup of Sanctification. The concept of becoming sanctified, holy, and set apart for God through introspection and alignment with the commandments of God has become lost in a tradition of the catholic church and is embraced by every Christian denomination. They drink the cup and eat the bread to be justified, but they do not drink to be sanctified.
Choose This Day
Yeshua never meant for the two cups of wine and unleavened bread of Passover to be relegated into a few minutes of eating a wafer and a sip of wine on a daily, weekly or bi-weekly basis in a church setting. In fact, Sha'ul's admonition to the Corinthians seems as if they had already begun to dismantle Passover into a communion food fest at their weekly gatherings. This was not the intended purpose of the events in Luke 22. They were to 'keep the Passover' as Yeshua did with two cups of wine. They were to 'keep the Passover' with the unleavened bread of truth while proclaiming the Lord's death until he returned. They were to 'keep the Passover' with the matzah of purity in the unity of faith and honoring one another as co-heirs of the Kingdom in Messiah.
Communion, one of the church's deeply-held dogmas is not found in the Scriptures. Neither Yeshua, his disciples, Sha'ul or even the early Messianic congregations celebrated a communion service. Communion is rooted in the catholic eucharist created by Rome centuries ago and embraced for centuries by the institution of the church.
To answer my daughter's question: Because the church celebrates a communion service, the bread and wine have no 'seder' or order. It has nothing to do with the Passover that Yeshua celebrated with his disciples on the night he instituted the new covenant setting apart his disciples as his Bride with the Cup of Sanctification and paying the ultimate Bride price with his body and blood, the Cup of Justification.

The LORD's Passover – Pesach
"This is a day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the LORD — a lasting ordinance" (Exodus 12:14).
The LORD's Passover is the first annual Feast of the LORD. It is the memorial to the extraordinary account of God's judgment on Egypt's gods and Israel's miraculous deliverance from a life of slavery. The Passover, or Pesach in Hebrew, began Israel's physical redemption as God's holy nation and they were to remember their salvation from death to life in the 'appointed time' called Passover.
Hebrew Word Pictures
Passover or Pesach – פסח
Peh פ – A Mouth means 'to speak, pour out'
Samech ס – A Prop means 'to support and protect'
Chet ח – A Fence means 'inner chamber'
The Hebrew word picture for pesach: "To pour out protection in the inner chamber."
For hundreds of years the descendants of Jacob were enslaved in Egypt building Pharaoh great cities. They were oppressed with hard labor from digging clay to making bricks and all kinds of field work. They were shown no mercy by their overseers. In spite of the oppression, their population increased. Pharaoh commanded the midwives to kill all baby boys as they were born, but because they feared God, they let the boys live. Pharaoh then ordered that all baby boys be thrown into the Nile River.
One infant boy from a Levite family was placed in a papyrus basket and floated in the Nile river. He was found by Pharaoh's daughter who named him Moses or Moshe which means 'pulled out of the water.' She located his mother and paid her to nurse him. When he was old enough, he left his mother and went to live in Pharaoh's house as a prince of Egypt.
As an adult, Moshe struggled with what he saw happening to his people, the Hebrew people. In a moment of anger, he killed a man. When word of it spread to Pharaoh, he feared for his life and ran to the land of Midian on the northwest Arabian peninsula. He became a shepherd and married Tzipporah, the daughter of a Midian priest. They had two sons named Gershom and Elieazer.
God heard the cries of the children of Israel. He saw their bondage and their misery. Through a burning bush, He called Moshe to become their deliverer. He told Moshe to go to Pharaoh and tell him to let His people go. Even so, God warned Moshe that He would harden Pharaoh's heart until he understood through the death of his firstborn son that Israel is the firstborn son of God. Armed with a staff in his hand and the name of God – the Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh, the "I Am that I Am"- Moses started out for Egypt. During his journey, Moshe met Aaron and they returned to confront Pharaoh together.
Egypt was culture of death. Their gods and goddesses glorified death. Their Pharaohs were immortalized in grand pyramid tombs filled with symbols of death. Their book for immortalizing those who passed on was called the "Book of the Dead." So God gave them what they worshipped and honored the most – death.
Through Moshe, God judged each of the gods of Egypt with plagues: water to blood, frogs, gnats or lice, flies, cattle disease, boils, hailstones, locusts, and darkness. The people of Egypt suffered. The land of Egypt suffered. Even with the loss of livestock and crops, Pharaoh would not relent and set his slaves free. Then, God's 'appointed time' of deliverance arrived.
"Moshe said [to Pharaoh], "Here is what the LORD says: 'About midnight I will go out into Egypt, and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh sitting on his throne to the firstborn of the slave-girl at the handmill, and all the firstborn of the livestock. There will be a horrendous wailing throughout all the land of Egypt — there has never been another like it, and there never will be again. But not even a dog's growl will be heard against any of the people of Israel, neither against people nor against animals. In this way you will realize that the LORD distinguishes between Egyptians and Israel. All your servants will come down to me, prostrate themselves before me and say, "Get out! — you and all the people who follow you!" and after that, I will go out!' " And he went out from Pharaoh in the heat of anger" (Exodus 11:4-8).
Preparations Begin
"The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, "This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year. Tell the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb for his family, one for each household" (Exodus 12:1-3).
Though the children of Israel experienced the first three plagues against Egypt, God separated them from the rest. In order to protect His people from the death of the firstborn, He had them bring a lamb or goat into their home for four days. It had to be an animal without defect, a first-year male, and enough to feed each household.
"Take care of them [the goat or lamb] until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the members of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight. Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the door frames of the houses where they eat the lambs"(Exodus 12:-6-7).
After caring for their animals for four days, the Israelites were to slaughter them at twilight, after sunset, when the sun is below the horizon and a soft glowing light emanates from the sky. They were to put some of the animal's blood on the sides and tops of the door frames where they were going to eat the meal.
In the Hebrew alphabet, the eighth letter is chet חand represents the number 8 and 'new beginnings.' The word 'life' or chaim also comes from chet and means 'life.' The manner in which the blood was placed around the door sides and top formed the letter chet for a new beginning of life.
"On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the Lord. The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt" (Exodus 12:12-13).
As the Israelites remained in their homes, the blood on their doorposts would be a sign for God, the Destroyer. When He saw the sign of the blood, He would 'pass over' the firstborn sons who were in the home protected by blood while allowing the firstborn of Egypt to die.
"This is how you are to eat it [the meal]: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste; it is the LORD's Passover" (Exodus 12:11).
The Passover meal consisted of roasted lamb, bread without leaven, and bitter herbs. The Israelites were not to break the bones of the lamb or take any of the meal outside of their homes. They were to eat it in haste.
"At midnight the LORD struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all the livestock as well. Pharaoh and all his officials and all the Egyptians got up during the night, and there was loud wailing in Egypt, for there was not a house without someone dead" (Exodus 12:29-30).
Lasting Ordinance
"And when your children ask you, 'What does this ceremony mean to you?' then tell them, 'It is the Passover sacrifice to the Lord, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt and spared our homes when he struck down the Egyptians" (Exodus 12:27).
Passover was to be celebrated forever throughout all the generations of the Israelites no matter where they lived. There were also specific regulations regarding the Passover. No foreigner, slave or traveler was to eat the meal unless they were circumcised. Once circumcised, they would be considered a citizen of Israel and could take part in the meal. The meal was always to be eaten in the house and no meat was to be taken outside. The bones of the Passover lamb were never to be broken.
In Joshua chapter 5, there is the account of the Israelites celebrating Passover in Gilgal after taking flint knives and circumcising all the men who had come out of the wilderness. In 2 Kings 23, Josiah destroys all the high places and idols in Israel and the nation celebrates Passover in Jerusalem for the first time since the days of the Judges. In Ezra chapter 6, when the Israelites returned from captivity, all who renounced the pagan practices of the nations celebrated the Passover. Ezekiel 45 speaks about Passover being celebrated in the Millennial Kingdom by putting blood on the door-frames of the Temple, on the four corners of the Altar's ledge and on the supports of the gate of the Inner Courtyard.
The 'appointed time' of Messiah
"He [Yeshua] replied, "Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, 'The Teacher says: My 'appointed time' is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house'" (Matthew 26:18).
The 'appointed time' of Passover was celebrated by Yeshua with his disciples. Using two cups of wine and unleavened bread from the traditional Passover memorial called a seder, he began to renew the marriage covenant given to Israel at Mount Sinai (Luke 22). However, in order to institute the new covenant, there had to be the shedding of blood. His blood.
Another cup of wine, a third cup, was also poured at a traditional seder to remember the plague judgments on Egypt with the final one being the death of the firstborn. Yeshua didn't mention this cup of wine at his seder probably because he knew the plague of death was coming for him as the Lamb of God. Even though he prayed earnestly for his Father to allow the cup of death to 'pass over' him, he knew he had to go forth with his Father's plan. There would be no lamb's blood on the doorposts of any house to protect his life. His blood was going to be poured out.
"They are the Israelites who are to be given wholly to me. I have taken them as my own in place of the firstborn …" (Numbers 8:16).
Isaac, the beloved firstborn son of Abraham, had experienced the 'passover' when the blood of a ram saved him from death. This 'binding of Isaac' became the vision of redemption for God's people. When God allowed the firstborn the sons of Israel to live through the plague of death with the substitute sacrifice, He again revealed His plan of salvation through a lamb. When Yeshua hung on the cross, he cried out, "It is finished." With those words he died. The beginning of the salvation of Israel and the world began with the substitute sacrifice of the Lamb of God.
"For Messiah, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. Therefore let us keep the Festival …" (1 Corinthians 5:7).

Passover Haggadah
by John and Julie Almanrode
"The living, the living—they praise you, as I am doing today; parents tell their children about your faithfulness" (Psalm 38:19).
Passover is a story that has been retold for thousands of years. It is the account of God's miraculous deliverance of His people from slavery to freedom, from despair to hope, from darkness to light. It encompasses the eternal truths of His character and personal involvement with His people. It endures as a testimony to His grace and merciful redemption because of the faithful who have told the story to their children from the time of ancient Egypt through the days of Messiah until this very day.
Our Passover Haggadah is a compilation from several different sources: the Covenant Community Church in McCook, Nebraska, two Messianic Haggadahs that were formatted from a traditional Jewish one, and our own personal insights from years of celebrating the memorial to the LORD's Passover.
Messiah Yeshua is the reality in the shadows of Passover and his last Passover seder is central to our Haggadah. From it you will learn more about your Savior, his words to his followers and this "appointed time" of God.
Use the How-to celebrate Passover to prepare your table and food in order to have a memorable celebration.

cites his Victories, and entails a Royal Inheritance to reward them, shall record his Glory to late Posterity. There is nothing wanting to compleat his Character, but this, that he shall be as willing to let his Country enjoy the Fruits of his Victories, as he has been able to gain them; that he fhew himself as grateful to England, as She has been to him; that he may judge a Princely Fortune (a Fortune unrivalled by any other Subject) to be sufficient for him and his Family, and that he may not desire to make a Trade of War, becaufe he profits by it, tho' at the same Time it consumes whole Nations, and his Mother Great-Britain among the rest.
April 13, 1710. Y OU rightly observe, that this hot-headed Priest
has cost both Houses more Time and Trouble than his Head is worth. What matters it if he has been too peremptory in the Pulpit, on a Subject he might better have let alone. Some Parts of his --Sermons are little better than Nonsense, but the general Doctrine may be supported by the Authority of all our most eminent Divines, and corresponds with that Maxim in Law, that the King can do no Wrong.
I think the Doctor and his Prosecutors have fplit on the fame Rock; an extraordinary Cafe, like the Revolution, is quite out of the ordinary Rules of Law, and not defined among the general Learning of the 'Cafuifts concerning the
cafion and are changed of God, of fancy, that
Obedience of Subjects to their Sovereign. The Doctor ought not to have drawn the Revolution into the Debate, nor ought we to fancy, that the Maxims of the Laws of God, of Nature, and of the Land, are changed by that extraordinary Occasion and Event. Tho' I am persuaded the fame Tenet has been taught ever since our Reformation, yet this Gentleman's Manner of teaching it is indiscreet; and his Warmth has been singular feveral Years ago. Defoe, in his Hymn to the Pillory, , has long since justly celebrated the Doctor's intemperate Žeal against the Dissenters; (I think Defoe had been then exalted for writing The Morteft Way with the Disenters) he wishes, that all who merit equal Punishment, might stand there along with him; and then descending to Particulars, says heg
dit this Cbeen tauroThothat exi
There wou'd the fam'd Sachev'rel stand,
But the Consequence of this mighty Eclat is, that most People are apt to consider a Sentence against this Preacher, (not as a Condemnation of
his Temerity by instancing the Revolution upon . an improper Occafion, and of his unwarrantable
pronouncing Damnation against the Diffenters, but) as an Establishment of the difcretionary Resistance of the Subject, and as a Degradation of kingly Power in England, to the Condition of the Consular in Rome, controled by the Senate, Tribunes, and People; and all this, by a folemn
Judgment of the Lords at the Demand of the Commons.
Our political Penmen, who swarm in every Age, will not fail hereafter to magnify every Mistake, every Slip, in every Administration; and even to call Virtue, Vice; Sweet, Bitter; and Good, Evil. Algernon Sidney's Treatise of Government will pass upon many for the Law of the Land ; and those who approve most of the Revolution, may live to see this latitudinarian Allegiance (which the misguided People will be apt to learn) become troublesome under the best Princes.
I should think therefore this Prosecution cannot have been a very agreeable Entertainment to the Queen, nor a pleasant Speculation to those who are in the Course of Succession to the Crown.
In the mean time, Converfation runs as low With us in Town as you describe it in the Country. You can hardly find a rational Creature to talk to, or a rational Topic to talk upon. Go where you will, you meet the Doctor. Be it pro or con, it is still the Doctor. The devout Adherers to the literal Construction of Holy Writ, say, that the sacred Volume is in Peril; and ejaculate their Apprehensions in Metre. One of their Pafquins closes thus,
Tho' all the Fathers, great and small,
Hith us in can hardly fifTopic to taler. Be it more
He copy'd you, was your Disciple;
The Poet's Partiality, in Favour of the Doctor, . is as extravagant, as his Apprehension of the Danger of burning the Bible. I give you this only as a Specimen, or rather Symptom, of the Fever of the Town; for I assure you, the Zealous of my Acquaintance, who read these Lines, are as fond of them as he can be that made them; for my own part, I rather agree with Mr. Dryden, to count such Clergymen,
The Phaetons of Mankind, who fire that World,
The Alteration of the many-headed Monster in Seventy, yea, in Thirty Years, is unaccountable. Pym and his Fellows were idolized by the Multitude of this very City, for the Reverse of this Doctrine, and so were the seven Bishops: But now if any Man has a Doubt about it, let him not divulge that Doubt in the Streets of London: If the present Humour of the Town continues a little longer, I shall be able to send you an whole Suit of Apparel, or Set of Houshold Furniture, fanctified with the goodly Image of the Doctor.
Aug. 14, 1712. İ T is not doubted that this Treaty will end in 1 Peace, in Spite of all Opposers. It is pretty unhappy for us, that all the Nations engaged in
lieves the sense of the will take tices of pubiai
War should not concur with us to wish heartily for the general Tranquillity of Europe. Nor will I answer for our own Soldiers of Fortune, The inferior Officers make a great Clamour against it in Coffee-Houses and other places of publick Refort; and, if you will take their Words, they speak the Sense of the Nation ; but do not you believe a Word of that.
The Emperor perhaps fancies that it is the Business of Great-Britain to raise the House of AuAtria, on the Ruins of that of Bourbon and of Great-Britain together; the Dutch can never be tired of having the Subsistence Money of our great Land-Army circulate in their Country; and the little Princes of Germany can afford to hire out Troops to us a good while longer, if we can find Cash to pay for them; this is a Trade among them."
Mancipiis locuples, eget æris Capadocum Rex.
But England seems, as well as France and Spain, to have Occasion for a Peace, and for some of the · fame Reasons. We have not been beaten often,
it is true; we have gotten great Victories, yet stili we are Sufferers, and must be so, as the Scene has been laid. What we conquer in Flanders is to be divided between the Dutch and the Emperor, and Spain is also to be conquered for the latter. As if the House of Austria might not lord it over Europe as severely as that of Bourbon; as if it were necessary to exhaust ourselves, to bring a Moiety of Europe under a single. Person, left a Moiety of Europe Thould at some Time or other hereafter (which poffibly may never happen) fall under the Dominion of a single Person. This is, ne mori

Blues star Isabelle Kelly says she holds "no grudges" going into the women's State of Origin on Friday after a nasty hair pull from Maroons player Amber Hall during the NRLW season.
Kelly's Origin dream for 2020 looked over two games into the NRLW season when she was left screaming in pain after having her hair pulled and falling awkwardly in a Hall tackle in October.
Hall landed on Kelly's ankle, with the Dragons star having to be carried off the field as a result. She was on crutches by the end of the game. Hall was handed a grade-one charge for the incident, pleaded guilty and was suspended for a week.
Kelly is still undergoing rehab while in Blues camp in an effort to recover from the injury, but says she has no ill will towards Hall.
"It looked really nasty … we were surprised it [the injury] wasn't a lot worse than it was," she said.
Kelly said Hall texted her in the days after the game, apologising for the incident and the injury.
"I think it was nice of her to do that," Kelly said. "It was very painful, I can't deny that at all, but it's rugby league at the end of the day and injuries happen.
"I'm not holding any grudges at all, but it's up to me to focus on myself and my injury, and to do everything I can to possibly be out there for the game."
Broncos star Hall was awarded player of the match for the NRLW grand final, where the Broncos claimed their third straight premiership. Kelly said the award was "well deserved" and wished Hall the best for the coming series.
"I'm not holding onto anything now," Kelly said.
Kelly is undergoing rehab alongside Blues skipper Kezie Apps, who suffered a knee injury during the same NRLW match against the Broncos. Apps has given herself a 90 per cent chance of playing on Friday alongside Kelly.
"I am lucky I might have the chance to put on the Origin jersey again," Kelly said.
Blues coach Andy Patmore decided to select both players despite their injuries – a risky move given coaches are unable to bring players into camp at the last minute due to COVID-19 restrictions.
"It's nice to know that he has a bit of faith in me and Kez, and he trusts that we could get ourselves right for the game," Kelly said. "It just goes to show what a great coach he is."
Patmore also made the controversial call to drop halves pair Kirra Dibb and Maddie Studdon and replace them with Corban McGregor and Melanie Howard.
With Kelly and Studdon best friends and Dragons teammates, the decision was a tough one to process, but shows the high calibre of players coming through women's rugby league this year.
"That's not easy for her, but I know that she will bounce back from this," Kelly said. "It's a tough thing for coaches. I wouldn't want to do it and I don't know how they do it. But rugby league changes every week."
The women's State of Origin will be played at Sunshine Coast Stadium on November 13.

Despite operating with smaller budgets and fewer resources than their mainstream counterparts, the U.S. Latin networks have been doing a remarkable job of covering the war on Iraq.
From day one, war correspondents posted in Baghdad, Kuwait and with the Central Command in Qatar have been reporting with tenacity and professionalism, keeping Latinos everywhere abreast of the latest war news.
Moreover, the depth and extent of their coverage on the war's Hispanic angle has set them apart. As UnivisiM-sn's anchorman Jorge Ramos said, there is a lot of Spanish being spoken on the front lines -- there are about 30,000 Latinos serving in the war -- and both Telemundo and UnivisiM-sn are keeping track of their whereabouts, reporting on Hispanic casualties and interviewing their families. The networks are also giving a unique perspective on the way the war is affecting the rest of the Americas.
But in spite of their many similarities, there is a marked difference in the tone of the coverage UnivisiM-sn and Telemundo are presenting.
NBC-owned Telemundo has emerged as the more aggressive of the two. The network, which is drawing on NBC's vast news operations -- not to mention deeper pockets -- was the first to report on the invasion. It has also been devoting more hours of continuous coverage, including its entire morning schedule, from 7 a.m. to noon.
This aggressiveness, especially in the early days of the war, gave Telemundo an edge against larger rival UnivisiM-sn, along with a much-needed ratings boost. In some key Latin markets, the network saw increases as high as 190 percent.
Telemundo halted its regular schedule for three days after the war broke and expanded its morning, evening and late-night newscasts. Unfortunately, when filing so many hours of live, unedited reports, there is also more room for judgment errors. Such is the case of Telemundo's much-criticized decision to air the Iraqi video showing American POWs as well as the body of a slain soldier, broadcast before the family had even been notified. The network has since apologized.
Telemundo's coverage has also raised questions about its objectivity. The news broadcasts, airing under the slogan "Objective: Saddam," show a kind of "rally round the flag" attitude also perceived on some English-language networks.
This is most evident whenever JosM-i DM-maz Balart is on the air. The Cuban-American anchor, who co-hosts the 7 a.m.-noon newscast, has been described by some viewers logging on the network's messaging boards as a "sports fanatic cheering on his home team."
By contrast, his co-anchor, Marian de la Fuente, shows moderation when it comes to delivering the news; the Madrid-born newswoman, who also reported during Desert Storm and the Bosnia conflict, is a sterling example of professionalism and fairness. The same applies to evening news anchor Pedro Sevcec. Although the Uruguayan newsman can sound rather sensationalistic -- it is not unusual to hear him utter phrases like "a splendorous bombing falling on Baghdad" -- he has done a commendable job of keeping the newscast balanced.
UnivisiM-sn, which is calling its coverage "Attack on Iraq," is presenting a different picture of the war.
After a slow start, which caused its ratings to drop soon after the war began, UnivisiM-sn quickly shifted strategy and sent Ramos to broadcast live from the Middle East.
While the network is getting some of its reports from CNN EspaM-qol and ABC News, most are provided by programming partner Televisa, Mexico's largest TV network. U.S. Mexicans are UnivisiM-sn's core audience, and given that they overwhelmingly oppose the war, it is not hard to figure the tone of the coverage.
Regardless, experience and professionalism shine through. Anchors Maria Elena Salinas and Ramos are, as always, doing an outstanding job, offering more objective analysis and more balance in their stories.
Most people anticipated a quick and decisive victory in Iraq. After so many days of the conflict, viewers are on the verge of information overload and need a break.
Maybe it's time to go back to regularly scheduled programming and let the professionals do what they do best.

Protons have mass and as a result of einstein's field equation dictate that the spacetime is no longer flat. But yet I find in most Quantum Field Theory books the Minkowski flat spacetime metric is used.
Doesn't this imply that the space is flat even with the proton being present? Or are we making an approximation? But if it's an approximation, looking at success of QFT it looks like that's a really good approximation to make.
I am unable to picture an electron in spacetime without it bending it. How does one think about this ?

UNTV said it attempted to break the world record of 15,128 pairs of mothers and children. In Olongapo, Pineda said the younger members of the business chamber, led by Maan Tan, orchestrated the street dancing feat "to turn Olongapo into an entertainment city." Olongapo had always been referred to as "the boarding house of SBMA (Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority, which operates the Subic Bay Freeport Zone)," he said, "but now we would like this to be a regular thing [and] bring life back to Magsaysay Drive (the city's main street) by organizing weekly activities here." "This is the biggest event of the year, of course," Pineda said.He said this year's Mardi Gras was staged in five major points at both ends of Magsaysay Drive.
Unverified user named Maya Agoncillo talks about the signs of falsehood of Iglesia Ni Cristo that went viral on social media.
With the observed signs of falsehood, she vented her frustrations by leaving her church. I have been an avid member of the Iglesia ni Cristo since the time of Bro. I believed all its teachings that it is the true church. We were told not to watch the programs of Eliseo Soriano or Bro.
Both the General and the Corporal are both fully human. And this "good news" was that Christ had became our needed sacrifice (1st Cor.15:1-22, Heb.9). When the new convert went down into the water, was submerged, and was then raised up, a re-enactment of his sins being washed away by the death, burial and resurrection of Christ was publicly demonstrated.
But this does not mean that a Corporal is any less human than the General. But the Bible teaches that we are not to receive a different gospel (Gal.1:8-9). Soriano; their church name; Their Trinity is a different Trinity; Christ is not a personal saviour; ADD salvation resembles the Mormon Gospel; Their salvation is like the INC; They are part of the Jerusalem church. Arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord." According to the Bible, the "washing" refers to "baptism." Therefore, being "born again" commences with being born of water and of the spirit. Man must be immersed into the water, and having imbibed with the words and teachings of God, he will be washed clean from his sinfulness.
God's city and God's people will be called by His name. "The church that is in their house" (Rom.16:5), "church which is at Cenchrea" (Acts 13:1), "church that was at Antioch" (Acts 13:1), and the "Church of God" followed by their location or where they met, such as "the church of God at Corinth" (Acts , 1 Cor.1:2, , , 15:9, 2 Cor.1:1, Gal., 2nd Tim.3:5). be baptized which have received the Holy Ghost."..there is one body, and one Spirit... the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven...
And still again, that just because a church calls themselves Iglesia ni Cristo or the Jehovah's Witnesses, is not proof that they are the True Church because any minister can start his own church and call it anything he wants."... Soriano, and also their SEC registration papers of April 21st, 1995, the true name of God's Church is the "IGLESIA NI YHWH AT NI YHWSA HMSYH," or THE CHURCH OF GOD IN JESUS CHRIST (literally, "the Church of God and Jesus Christ")."Everyone must make himself a part of the Church, which is written in the Bible – The CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS, PILLAR AND GROUND OF THE TRUTH."Bro. Soriano gets this name from the following passage of 1st Tim.But if I tarrry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughest behave thyself in thehouse of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of truth." NT churches were called by several names and some did not even have a name!
You're doing exactly what you want and need contact you, sort of dating and how would all work out in public.
Player coming into series in the month or love this app couple of things to make him feel better.
But the mayor did not reply when asked about the method used to validate the number of street dancers who joined the "Galaw Gapo" event.

Victory with God(2 Samuel 8:1–14; 1 Chronicles 18:1–13; Psalm 108:1–13)
For the choirmaster. To the tune of "The Lily of the Covenant." A Miktam of David for instruction. When he fought Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck down 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
You have rejected us, O God;
You have broken us;
You have been angry;
restore us!
2You have shaken the land
and torn it open.
Heal its fractures,
for it is quaking.
3You have shown Your people hardship;
we are staggered from the wine You made us drink.
4You have raised a banner for those who fear You,
that they may flee the bow.
5Respond and save us with Your right hand,
that Your beloved may be delivered.
6God has spoken from His sanctuary:
"I will triumph!
I will parcel out Shechem
and apportion the Valley of Succoth.
7Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine;
Ephraim is My helmet, Judah is My scepter.
8Moab is My washbasin;
upon Edom I toss My sandal;
over Philistia I shout in triumph.
9Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
10Have You not rejected us, O God?
Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?
11Give us aid against the enemy,
for the help of man is worthless.
12With God we will perform with valor,
and He will trample our enemies.

When she took herself off in the afternoon announcing that she was going shopping as required, the first real indicator that my strategy was falling into place came Saturday! Her way remained in overall and sharp contrast to earlier in the week and was practically freely accepting it appeared. My mind was doing somersaults wondering what she might be buying. When she got home in her vehicle three or four hours later she went into the house with a number of bags however when I attempted to peer into them was bluntly informed to mind my own organisation as they weren't for my eyes! We then headed off with no demonstration from her, in reality, rather the contrary there was a nearly determination on her part which was now playing on my mind. The hotel was about 2 hours away which provided what was to occur (ideally) was no bad thing. When there we parked the cars and truck in the parking area and checked in at reception. Having been offered our essential cards for the space we made our method using the elevator. Whilst it didn't take long to unload, or at least it didn't take me long, she didn't do so once again staying with her position that what she had wasn't for me so we made a drink and saw some television before I decided it was time.
I think as role-models go, the resident call-girl wasn't a genuine good one, however they need to live someplace, and it's difficult enough to earn a living without looking for a structure where there aren't kids around. I simply desired her side of the story, so the next time I encountered her, she was examining the mail. Using routine clothing, not dressed up for work, however the first thing I asked her about was that a person time, she came over the restaurant.

For months we've been hearing that Fox was planning one last hurrah for the Alien franchise before their merger goes into effect and it officially becomes the property of Disney. There were rumors of a live-action TV series on a streaming network, but the actuality is probably something fans weren't expecting. We're getting an R rated (yay!) animated (huh?) web series. The Observer broke the news:
Sources tell us that an R-rated animated series based on the video game Alien: Isolation is being developed for a seven-episode run. The series apparently hails from Axis Animation, which also did the VFX work on the game, and could arrive as early as April. We're told the digital series may make its home on the Alien website, though that remains unknown at this time.
For the uninitiated, here's the gist of the video game Alien: Isolation:
- Discover the true meaning of fear in Alien: Isolation, a survival horror set in an atmosphere of constant dread and mortal danger.
- Fifteen years after the events of Alien, Ellen Ripley's daughter, Amanda enters a desperate battle for survival, on a mission to unravel the truth behind her mother's disappearance.
- As Amanda, you will navigate through an increasingly volatile world as you find yourself confronted on all sides by a panicked, desperate population and an unpredictable, ruthless Alien.
- Overcome an ever-present deadly threat – Experience persistent fear as a truly dynamic and reactive Alien uses its senses to hunt you down and respond to your every move.
- Improvise to survive – Hack systems, scavenge for vital resources and craft items to deal with each situation. Will you evade your enemies, distract them or face them head on?
One of our favorite UK film critics and academics, Mr. H, discusses the project in the video embedded at the top of the article.
What do you think, Alien fans? Is this the news you were hoping for? Let us know in the comments below or on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram!

US President Donald Trump's envoy to the EU, Gordon Sondland, has admitted that he told Ukraine it would likely not receive aid unless it announced investigations into Trump's rivals.
Sondland updated his testimony Tuesday to reverse his position on the Ukraine scandal amid mounting pressure on the president over trying to find dirt on former Vice President Joe Biden, his potential 2020 rival, and his son Hunter.
The diplomat said in the document, which was released by the House committees leading the impeachment inquiry, along with the transcript of his original testimony from last month that "resumption of the US aid would likely not occur until Ukraine provided the public anticorruption statement that we had been discussing for many weeks."
According to the New York Times, "In his updated testimony, Mr. Sondland recounted how he had discussed the linkage with Andriy Yermak, a top adviser to President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, on the sidelines of a Sept. 1 meeting between Vice President Mike Pence and Mr. Zelensky in Warsaw. Mr. Zelensky had discussed the suspension of aid with Mr. Pence."
Sondland further suggested that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had come to terms with the role Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani was playing in dealing with Ukraine.
"Pompeo rolled his eyes and said: Yes, it's something we have to deal with," said the US ambassador to the European Union. "The State Department was fully aware of the issues, and there was very little they could do about it if the president decided he wanted his lawyer involved."
The White House has defended Trump against the latest revelations.
"Both transcripts released today show there is even less evidence for this illegitimate impeachment sham than previously thought," it said.

Recent events in Ukraine and Russia and the subsequent incorporation of Crimea into the Russian state, with the support of some circles of inhabitants of the peninsula, have shown that the desire of people to belong to the Western part of Europe should not automatically be assumed. Discussing different perceptions of the Ukrainian-Russian war in neighbouring countries, this book offers an analysis of the conflicts and issues connected with the shifting of the border regions of Russia and Ukraine to show how 'material' and 'psychological' borders are never completely stable ideas. The contributors – historians, sociologists, anthropologists and political scientists from across Europe – use an interdisciplinary and comparative approach to explore the different national and transnational perceptions of a possible future role for Russia.

Why Are New Construction Homes Available Right Away?
At Ernest Homes, this is a question we get – and we answer – several times every week. It's easy to understand why…potential customers think that buying new construction will guarantee that they will have to wait at least three to six months for a brand-new house to be built. Like most home builders, Ernest Homes features a varied selection of available homes on our website. These are lovely, brand new homes that you can move into just as quickly as a typical previously owned property, with all of the perks and advantages of new construction.
Why does this happen? How can a brand-new home be yours so quickly?
Most people automatically assume that the term "new construction" is completely synonymous with the term "custom builder". Custom builders design and build a home specifically to the customer's precise wants and needs. Due to this added level of personalization, extra time is required to bring the customer's dream to life. Greater specificity takes a long time to achieve, resulting in extended construction timelines.
Successful builders realize that not every shopper interested in new construction has the luxury of a long lead time to wait for a new home to be built from the ground up. Life circumstances may require buyers to get settled into a home quickly, and it's important for home builders to have inventory available for these customers.
These builders create new homes using a variety of tried and true floor plans that have proven to be successful in several communities, featuring design elements that tend to be popular with a majority of shoppers in the market for a new home. Builders use reports to identify the top features and upgrades local pre-construction buyers are choosing in their communities, so they can make informed decisions on which details to include in the homes they will sell as-is, or with minimal adaptation.
Today's move-in ready homes are a far cry from the cookie-cutter tract homes of the post-World War II housing boom. Most of the elements featured in these homes (sometimes called "spec" or "feature" homes) are chosen because they are modern, stylish and energy efficient. These characteristics appeal to potential buyers because they make it easy to see how quickly a family will come to love their new home. These homes are often designed with open floor plans, lots of windows for natural light and rooms with the flexibility to be used for various purposes.
Spec homes of the past were often dismissed as second-rate products, produced without much thought to the finer details found in new construction. Nothing could be further from the truth! In fact, an inventory home is a great way a reputable home builder can put their best foot forward in their housing market. By putting together a talented team of construction specialists, design center professionals and on-site customer service superstars, homebuilders have the chance to show customers and competitors alike exactly what they can achieve!
Move-in ready houses are also popular with buyers who may find it difficult to "visualize" what their new home will look like from a blueprint or a sketch of the proposed finished product, which is called an elevation. Many buyers prefer to see, touch and assess all elements of a house before agreeing to purchase it.
Some buyers like to hand-pick every element of their new home, from the flooring to the bath fixtures. However, many customers find the responsibility of making so many choices completely overwhelming. They prefer to personalize their spaces with their interior design, focusing on the furniture and personal decor that make their home unique, while trusting the professionals to make solid choices when it comes to the functionality and general appearance of the home. This is where a featured home is ideal – the skeleton of the home is ready and waiting for them; all they need to add are their final touches.
If your family is ready to move, consider the advantages of one of our available homes. We can provide personalized tours for your small group, as home builders are considered to be an essential business under the coronavirus protocols. We've remained open for our customers during this challenging time, and we look forward to assisting more and more home buyers during the reopening of our nation's economy.

Sciencefiction along with the Entire World of This Thoughts
What is the difference between Freeman's earth along with other mathematics fiction, books that are realist? Is it summarize books the art of this writing? Do you have to be a science fiction buff to enjoy this particular novel? I think that many science fiction fans may like this particular novel, in addition to readers that are not lovers.
In Freeman's planet, and from many realist science fiction novels, the entire world is proven from an alien view. It's not so. Submerged species' notion is very popular with readers, even even when some believe the aliens are not realistic, simply due to the fact they tend to be called extra-terrestrials.
The entire world is currently the colony for the human race. You can find star ships and spaceships on the ones in charge of running things decide how to control the people and Earth. They try to keep the folks in check by regulating them in a way that is rigid.
The most important character would be that a molecular biologist, also he discovers himself nearly always in battle using groups of people that are making an attempt to restrain their own world. Unsurprisingly, the result is just a rebellion and a fight for power. It all boils right down to a single thing. It is just a little similar to a match of baseball.
In Freeman's planet, 1 group is trying to grow the amount of individual DNA from the population. They assert that human beings ought to be human as you are able to. They concern the Earth could be changed by them to the earth, also that there may be humans in the world.
As a way to restrain the people, Freeman's World's scientists have decided to torture and kill. They find that their torture techniques don't get the job done, which they come into brain controller. The scientist also believes that if he can control your head of the matters , he can create them do anything he wants.
The major part of the book, Dr. Bruce MacKenzie, performs in a center called"techniques," and he's got a new endeavor. He is supposed to discover a treatment for your disease. The symptoms include extreme levels of expansion, hormonal changes, excessive hair growth, along with puberty.
The behavior of the system causes this disorder, also also affects the children in particular. Their minds become awakened, if they eventually get adults, they develop mental illnesses.
The problem is not just that individual beings are not growing how they have to, but which https://law.duke.edu/admis/financial/handbook/sec2/ our tech is still impacting our own emotions and reproduction. https://www.summarizing.biz/ So, Bruce is currently working to figure out a way to utilize the mindcontrol devices to treat the issue.
However, because the majority of the systems are run by humans, that have a hereditary predisposition there is just a great likelihood they will fail. Bruce MacKenzie discovers that a person who is ordinary runs certain of those systems. Nevertheless, the technique seems to have no problems at all.
This had been actually constructed to help bring peace to an entire planet that was attacked, and also the device had been built by the scientist responsible for the device . Each one of the devices are designed so that the human beings had been secure, as the control systems were set up. In this manner, Bruce was able to chance upon a way to control this system.
These books are perfect for science fiction readers that want to find some thing one-of-a-kind and original. They like to learn humans in control of other species, these books will give a brand fresh twist on the use of mind control. They'll allow science fiction to be seen by science fiction readers from an unknown outlook.

Jeremy Watt
Sub-Principal Double Bass
Originally from Australia, Jeremy was probably lucky to make it through childhood at all. An incident with a fork and a powerpoint, an ugly meeting of head and golf club, a stunt man style motorcycle accident and many tear inducing piano lessons all colluded against him. Luckily, he was placed behind a double bass in his early teens, focussing all his self destructive energies on the never ending pursuit of the near impossible.
At the age of 23, having freelanced in Sydney and his native Brisbane for a number of years, Jeremy suddenly announced to his family he'd purchased a one way ticket to Europe, and in early 2002 flew to Brussels, before settling in London later that year with £17.30 in his pocket. He spent his first two years working in a big, famous record store on Oxford Street, where he met his wife, before stumbling into a trial for a job with one of the London orchestras.
The last 14 years he has spent freelancing through the UK and Europe, including stints as guest principal in Spanish, Norwegian and UK orchestras. While Jeremy has enjoyed a particularly close association with the Philharmonia and London Symphony Orchestras during this time he has worked extensively with most of this country's wonderful ensembles, playing with some of the finest musicians in the world. It should be noted that many of the conductors and soloists have also been quite good.
In 2018 the CBSO offered Jeremy a permanent position within its famed double bass section. The chance to be a part of a world class ensemble, very close to his wife's family in the Midlands was an opportunity he simply couldn't resist. Some of his favourite classical recordings are of the CBSO, under it's various music directors, and he's honoured to now be working alongside many of the musicians featured on these iconic performances.
When he's not at work, Jeremy can be found spending as much time as possible with his wife and young son, and their very lazy greyhound.

Three Act Tragedy
"'Dear Sir Charles,-- I don't know when this will get to you. I do hope soon. I'm so worried, I don't know what to do. You'll have seen, I expect, in the papers that Sir Bartholomew Strange is dead. Well, he died just the same way as Mr. Babbington. It can't be a coincidence-- it can't-- it can't... I'm worried to death..." -- Agatha Christie (p. 51).

Great customer service. Guys took my car at very short notice as I had no brake lights. Got me back on the road quickly.
Excellent service. Booked evening before, fitted in the morning. On time, friendly service.
Ok, i'm not one for writing reviews normally, i normally think if i'm paying for something why should i be happy when i get what i paid for ?,... however in this case i was very impressed. I discovered today (Monday) while out doing my weekly shop i had a flat-ish tyre and on further inspection i could see a foreign metallic object in my not that old tyre, so i called the usual big chains ,.. Kwik-Fit and ATS and was greeted with the usual "Why are you bothering us" attitude, i described the issue and they simply said it needs a new tyre that will be £175+VAT and i'd have to wait until Thursday,..and i nearly went for it. I then noticed in the Google search a local garage (SMS Alloa), so on the off chance i gave them a call,.. i was greeted by a lovely lady, (didn't get her name)..although it appears unfortunately i had interrupted her lunch,.. i took this as a good sign as this says to me they care for their business and customers, when other big chain garages would simply let it ring or let it go to answer phone or even cut you off. I explained the issue and she said they are a bit busy but pop-over and they would take a look, so i did. I waited 7 mins in the store adequately socially distanced, while others were served and then i was ushered to the garage and the tyre was inspected by one of the friendly mechanics and he explained it was borderline for a repair however it wasn't a full nail and it could indeed be repaired safely,.. which he did quickly and efficiently,... the final bill.. £17.50 !!,.. a lot better than the £175+VAT So, enough waffle, ..bottom-line i was very impressed .. the service by all the staff i encountered was excellent both on the phone and in person,... they could have easily pushed me down the path of saying i needed a new tyre but didn't and i was all sorted and back home within an hour of making the initial call,... needless to say they will be my first port of call when i want anything needing done to my car in future.
Excellent service, very friendly and helpful staff, really good experience.
I took my car here for an MOT and what a terrible mistake that was. Firstly, this garage did not carry out the MOT. It appears it was carried out by Mayfield Auto. I was not informed about this when booking, but my issue was not with the result of the MOT. My car failed due to a handbrake fault, misbalanced brakes along the rear axle and corroded brake pipes - these are all things that I could accept. I was told that I'd also need 2 new rear callipers despite me informing them that they were not even a year old and had done less than 6k miles! I was quoted £747.85 all in for the MOT, repairs and 2 puncture repairs and due to needing to wait on parts it would take another day. However, if I wanted the work carried out that day I would be "closer to £1000". When asked to give a breakdown of the price when I came into the store the woman I was dealing with appeared evasive (which my partner had also noticed). The only information I was provided with was that its "a lot of work" and it would take "7 hours of labour at £55 per hour". I think anyone who has a working knowledge of cars would raise an eyebrow at this quote given how localised all the faults were. I, of course, refused to pay for the repairs (but did pay the MOT and puncture repairs). I then phoned another local garage (L&L Auto Care) which was literally around the corner from here and I explained the situation and they agreed to take a look. I was charged £280 for ALL of the work to be carried out and drove away not even 2 days later with a passed MOT. That's £105 less than what SMS Alloa were trying to charge me for labour alone! Not only that, they confirmed my rear callipers were both perfectly fine. So how can SMS Alloa have gotten this so wrong? Fluctuations in bills can happen but not in excess of £400! All I can suggest is to avoid here at all costs if you're looking for an honest garage. I know I won't be making this mistake again.

The story of the consequences of the Soviet Union's testing of nuclear weapons on its own population in Kazakhstan. A film about genetics, eugenics and the battle between over-powerful doctors and a determined pregnant mother.
During the Soviet era, the people of Semipalatinsk in Kazakhstan were used as human guinea pigs in the testing of nuclear weapons. Today they live with the consequences. Whilst sheep graze in radioactive bomb craters, many in the population believe that the testing is the reason why one in twenty children are born with birth defects. Dr Toleukhan Nurmagambetov, the boss of the city's maternity clinic, wants to introduce a genetic passport which will prevent those with suspect genes from giving birth. Bibigul -- a local woman from the test-site -- is pregnant and her "defected and frightful" face arouses the suspicion of local medical staff. Nurmagambetov labels her a genetic failure. He implores Bibigul to get tested and abort the child who he fears will be born disabled, but Bibigul refuses to give up her dream of becoming a mother.

Cameron Vows Full Probe Of Phone Hacking Scandal
MICHELE NORRIS, Host:
NPR's David Folkenflik fills us in.
DAVID FOLKENFLIK: Prime Minister Cameron started by condemning the practices alleged to have occurred at News of the World.
DAVID CAMERON: Over the past few days, the whole country has been shocked by the revelations about the phone-hacking scandal - murder victims, terrorist victims, families who have lost loved ones, sometimes defending our country. That these people could have had their phones hacked into in order to generate stories for a newspaper is simply disgusting. I cannot think what was going through the minds of the people who did this.
FOLKENFLIK: He also promised a full investigation to determine whether police officers took illegal payments from the News of the World and why an earlier police inquiry into the paper was shut down in 2006. He said self-regulation by newspapers had failed and pledged a new system.
CAMERON: My starting presumption is that it should be truly independent. Independent of the press, so the public will know that newspapers will never again be solely responsible for policing themselves, but vitally independent of government so the public will know that politicians are not trying to control or muzzle a press that must be free to hold politicians to account.
FOLKENFLIK: But Cameron blamed his own profession, too.
CAMERON: The deeper truth is this: There is a less noble reason. Because party leaders were so keen to win the support of newspapers, we turned a blind eye to the need to sort this issue.
FOLKENFLIK: Cameron now says he would have accepted Brooks' resignation, and today's news about Coulson is even worse for him.
W: Cops raid Cam's man. That's the headline the News of the World might have put over pictures of detectives confiscating computers from the house of the man who once ran the paper, the man...
FOLKENFLIK: Ed Miliband is the leader of the opposition Labour Party.
ED MILIBAND: I think we saw a prime minister today who still doesn't seem to get it. And I'm afraid he's someone who doesn't seem to be able to lead the change we need in the way the press works in this country, because he couldn't even bring himself to apologize for hiring Andy Coulson.
FOLKENFLIK: David Folkenflik, NPR News, London.

And if you haven't started yet, no worries…it's early in the game and you can jump on in today, by doing a 1 second +/-, a 2 second, 3 second and 4.
2nd….Have you been on the ski erg yet? That bad boy is tough, tough, tough. And we need YOU to sprint it out. Here's the gig: Concept 2 is hosting their 7th Annual SkiErg World Sprints from Nov. 6th-8th. You can enter your 1000 meter sprint time as an individual and see where you stand in your age group. Top winners receive a custom engraved cowbell (and who doesn't want one of those!? 🙂 ).
