PROPHECIES THAT ARE TO BE FULFILLED
Prophetic significance of Messiah – of His Millennial Kingdom
Behold, the days are coming, says YHWH, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows the seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine and all the hills shall melt. And I will bring back the exiles of My people Israel, and they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards and drink the wine from them; they shall also make gardens and eat the fruit of them. And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be torn up out of their land which I gave them, says YHWH your Elohim.
I kept watching the night visions, when I saw, coming with the clouds of heaven, someone like a son of man. He approached the Ancient One and was led into his presence. To Him was given rulership, glory and a Kingdom, so that all peoples, nations and languages should serve Him. His rulership is an eternal rulership that will not pass away; and His Kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.
And in that day it shall be that living waters shall flow from Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and half of them toward the western sea; in both summer and winter it shall occur. And YHWH shall be King over all the earth. In that day it shall be – « YHWH is one», and His name one.
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, YHWH of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. And it shall be, that whoso of the families of the earth goeth not up unto Jerusalem to worship the King, YHWH of hosts, upon them there shall be no rain. And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, they shall have no overflow; there shall be the plague, wherewith YHWH will smite the nations that go not up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that go not up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.
But in the end of days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of YHWH ‘s house shall be established as the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and peoples shall flow unto it. And many nations shall go and say: «Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of YHWH, and to the house of YHWH of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths». For out of Zion shall go forth the Torah, and the word of YHWH from Jerusalem. And He shall judge between many peoples, and shall decide concerning mighty nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig-tree; and none shall make them afraid; for the mouth of YHWH of hosts (Tzva’ot) hath spoken.
For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth. And the former things shall not be remembered or come into mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem to be a rejoicing and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in My people; and the sound of weeping will no more be heard in it, nor the cry of distress. There shall no more be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who dies prematurely; for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner who dies when only a hundred years old shall be accursed. They shall build houses and inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat the fruit. For as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of My people, and My chosen and elect shall long make use of and enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labor in vain or bring forth children for sudden terror or calamity; for they shall be the descendants of the blessed of YHWH, and their offspring with them. And it shall be that before they call I will answer; and while they are yet speaking I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent’s food. They shall not hurt or destroy in all My holy Mount Zion, says YHWH.
Many of those whose bodies lie dead and buried will rise up, some to everlasting life and some to shame and everlasting contempt. Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky, and those who turn many to righteousness will shine like stars forever.
And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Yeshua and for the word of YHWH, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with the Messiah for a thousand years. But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of YHWH and of the Messiah, and shall reign with Him a thousand years. Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea.

THE FOLLOWING EVENTS HAPPENED AT THE EXACT SAME TIME
The Ark rested on the mountains of Ararat
Then the ark rested in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
Gen.8:4
The angels announced to Sarah and Abraham that she is pregnant with the promised son
And we returned in the seventh month, and found Sarah with child before us and we blessed him (Abraham), and we announced to him all the things which had been decreed concerning him, that he should not die till he should beget six sons more, and should see them before he died; but that in Isaac should his name and seed be called […] And we went our way, and we announced to Sarah all that we had told him, and they both rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And he built there an altar to YHWH who had delivered him, and who was making him rejoice in the land of his sojourning, and he celebrated a festival of joy in this month seven days, near the altar which he had built at the Well of the Oath. And he built booths for himself and for his servants on this festival, and he was the first to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles on the earth. And during these seven days he brought each day to the altar a burnt offering to YHWH […]
And he celebrated this Feast during seven days, rejoicing with all his heart and with all his soul, he and all those who were in his house, and there was no stranger with him, nor any that was uncircumcised. And he blessed his Creator who had created him in his generation, for He had created him according to His good pleasure; for He knew and perceived that from him would arise the plant of righteousness for the eternal generations, and from him a holy seed, so that it should become like Him who had made all things. And he blessed and rejoiced, and he called the name of this festival the Festival of YHWH, a joy acceptable to the Most High Elohim. And we blessed him forever and all his seed after him throughout all the generations of the earth, because he celebrated this festival in its season, according to the testimony of the heavenly tablets. For this reason it is ordained on the heavenly tablets concerning Israel, that they shall celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles seven days with joy, in the seventh month, acceptable before YHWH – a statute for ever throughout their generations every year. And to this there is no limit of days; for it is ordained for ever regarding Israel that they should celebrate it and dwell in booths, and set wreaths upon their heads, and take leafy boughs, and willows from the brook. And Abraham took branches of palm trees, and the fruit of goodly trees, and every day going round the altar with the branches seven times a day in the morning, he praised and gave thanks to his YHWH for all things in joy.

Jacob gave the tithe in Bethel, brought the sacrifice to YHWH Elohim, and acquired the name ‘Israel’ upon the completion of this Feast
And he (Jacob) went up on the new moon of the seventh month to Bethel. And he built an altar at the place where he had slept […] And he abode that night at Bethel, and Levi dreamed that they had ordained and made him the priest of the Most High Elohim, him and his sons for ever; and he awoke from his sleep and blessed YHWH. And Jacob rose early in the morning, on the fourteenth of this month (7th month), and he gave a tithe of all that came with him, both of men and cattle, both of gold and every vessel and garment, yea, he gave tithes of all […]Thus he tithed again the tithe to YHWH and sanctified it, and it became holy unto Him. And for this reason it is ordained on the heavenly tablets as a law for the tithing again the tithe to eat before YHWH from year to year, in the place where it is chosen that His name should dwell, and to this law there is no limit of days for ever […] And on the following night, on the twenty-second day of this month, Jacob resolved to build that place, and to surround the court with a wall, and to sanctify it and make it holy for ever, for himself and his children after him. And YHWH appeared to him by night and blessed him and said unto him: «Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel shall they name thy name».

The day when the First Temple was assembled by Solomon
All the men of Israel assembled themselves before King Solomon at the Feast in the seventh month, Ethanim (Tishrei).
Thus all the work that Solomon did for the House of YHWH (Temple) was finished. He brought in all the things that David his father had dedicated, and the silver, the gold, and all the vessels he put in the treasuries of the House of YHWH. Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the chiefs of the fathers’ houses of the Israelites, to Jerusalem to bring up the ark of the covenant of YHWH out of the City of David, which is Zion. All the men of Israel gathered to the king at the feast in the seventh month.
So Solomon held the Feast at that time, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entrance Hamath unto the Brook of Egypt, before YHWH our Elohim, seven days and seven days, even fourteen days. On the eighth day he sent the people away, and they blessed the king, and went unto their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that YHWH had shown unto David His servant, and to Israel His people.
So Solomon held the Feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of Egypt. And on the eighth day they held a solemn assembly; for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the Feast seven days. And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away unto their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that YHWH had shown unto David, and to Solomon, and to Israel His people.
