YESHUA'S TALMIDIM AND MINCHA

YESHUA'S TALMIDIM AND MINCHA

Shalom,

In Acts 3:1, we can find that the TALMIDIM (DISCIPLES) of Yeshua, did the AFTERNOON PRAYER (MINCHA - מנחה).

Act 3:1 KJV
Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at THE HOUR OF PRAYER, being the ninth hour.

What is THE HOUR OF PRAYER, at THE NINTH HOUR? We can only answer this question in Hebraic-mindset, not in Greek-mindset.

THE NINTH HOUR
===============
THE NINTH HOUR is must be understood in the Hebraic-mindset. In Hebraic-mindset, the new day starts at sun-set, not at midnight, like we always think. It is based on the Torah, in the Creation.

Gen 1:5 KJV
...And the evening and the morning were the first day.

The day starts at evening, and the morning.

Yeshua said :
Joh 11:9 KJV
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day?

1 day = 12 hours
12 hours for evening, and 12 hours for daylight. Total is 24 hours.

Since the day starts at sun-set, it is the 00 hours. And at sun-rise is 00 hours also. From here, we find that THE NINTH HOUR is equal with our 03:00 PM time, because it is 9 hours after 06:00 AM time.

So, THE NINTH HOUR is 03:00 PM in 21st century.

MINCHA
=======
What prayer is that that praying at THE NINTH HOUR OF PRAYER? It is called MINCHA [מנחה]. The commandment to do the MINCHA started since Adam and Eve.


Gen 4:4 KJV
And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his OFFERING [מנחה]

MINCHA is the time when sacrifice is sacfriced to HaShem, and prayers are done to HaShem.

Simon Kefa and Yochanan, in Acts 3:1, they did MINCHA. We thought, Simon Kefa (Simon Peter) and Yochanan (John) were CHRISTIANS, after they believed in Yeshua (Jesus). But they were NOT, actually.

CHRISTIANS is a GENTILE word which is used by the GENTILES NON BELIEVER to address the GENTILES BELIEVER in the city of Antioch - "JEWISH NEW TESTAMENT COMMENTARY by David H. Stern in Acts 11:26".

Simon Kefa, and Yochanan were not GENTILES, they were JEWS, they were MESSIANIC JEWS [MESHICHIM HA'YEHUDIM]. That's why, in Acts 3:1, we read that they were doing MINCHA.
CORNELIUS, a GENTILE BELIEVER is Acts 10:3, he did MINCHA.



What about you?
