The Universal Law & The Law for Planet Earth!

    The Ten brief, comprehensive, authoritative principles called the Ten Commandments are unchangeable, and are the guide for all beings in the entire universe.

    However the statutes in the Torah, which were given by YAHUSHUA to Moses, which he wrote in a book, are specifically given for planet earth, and not necessarily for the entire universe.

    The entire universe observes a seventh day, although that day may not be the same day (or time) as planet Earth.  Please allow me to explain.  When YAHU-WAH the Son created this Earth and other worlds from here He set the planets in motion.  However these other planets do not have a 24 hour day, as we have.

 For illustration purposes let's use the planets in our solar system.  The first planet from the sun does not spin, one day is one year, six trips around the sun is six years, and six days.

    The fifth planet from the sun (known by the pagan name of Jupiter) has twelve moons, and the length of its year, which is one trip around the sun, is 12 years.  The length of its day is 9 hours and 55 minutes.  Considering it's size, this planet is really spinning fast!

    The sixth planet (commonly known as Saturn) is the center of its own planetary system.  It has nine smaller planets around it for satellites instead of moons.  One trip around the sun takes 291/2 earth years, and it's day is 101/4 hours.

    The seventh planet (commonly known as Uranus) has 5 moons, and the length of its year is 84.07 earth years, and its length of day is 10.8 hours.

    The Feast day system given to planet earth would not work if you lived on another planet.

   YAHUWAH made all planets different, just as he made all plants different, all snow flakes different, all humans different, etc..  If you had four moons to choose from?  Which would be your new moon?

    The Festival times which YAHUWAH appointed were designed for mankind to spend time with Him, and for the purpose of having fellowship together with Him, for a longer period than just a day, a vacation with Him.  In the garden of Eden YAHUWAH the Son would come and spend personal time with Adam and Eve on Sabbath, the memorial of His creation.  He taught them many things, and warned them of the deceiver.  Not only on the Sabbath did He spend time with them, but even a whole week, which was at the appointed time.  Creation began the first day of Tishri (Antiqities 1. 2. 3. footnote; Harvard Edition) Tabernacles came only a little after.  Later ceremonies and object lessons were tied to these appointed times, teaching the redemption theme.

    The Feast of Trumpets and the day of Atonement were not given from Mt. Sinai, as were the Feast of Unleavened Bread, Pentecost, and Feast of Tabernacles (Exodus 23:14-17), but they were given later after the wilderness Sanctuary was completed from the cloudy pillar above the Tabernacle, which Moses wrote down.

    Each planet has its own appointed times.  When every planet completes six turns the Sabbath begins, but its not the same as ours.  In this way everyone is obedient as they apply the law in their own local place.

    The Vernal Equinox is the time when the earth has completed one revolution around the sun (one year).  Anciently this revolution was determined at the Fall Equinox (Exodus 34:22 margin KJV),  when the sun is at the equator.  It is a world wide event!  Everyone can determine this event, when the sun comes in alignment with two poles facing due East at the sunrise. (Ask for the free study on how to do this).  The barley does not determine the year!  We are told in Genesis that the greater light (the sun) determines not only the day, but the year also (Genesis 1:16, 14).  Every planet's year is different.  The eighth planet (known as Pluto) has a year of 248.4 earth years.  My that's a long time!

  Summary!

     The Ten Commandments are for the whole universe and applied to their setting.

    The statutes of every planet amplify and illustrate the principle of the Ten Commandments, which govern the everyday life, and are designed each for their sphere.  In other words they guide and guard the life in a path of obedience, which will result in obeying the Ten Commandments.  Loving YAHUWAH first and foremost, and your neighbor as yourself.

    This little planet as sinful as it is, will one day be exalted above all the other planets as the place of YAHUWAH's presence and the place of His eternal Kingdom, and the laws which He gave this planet will be exalted.

    After the thousand years in heaven YAHUSHUA will come a third time, this time He will not remain in the air, where the saints met Him at the second coming (I Thessalonians 4:16, 17), but His foot will touch the Mt. of Olives, there it will split and depart in all directions (Zechariah 14:4) making a place for the reception of His eternal city.  John saw it!  "I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from Elohim out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." Revelation 21:2

    The wicked are resurrected in preparation to receive their sentence in the  "fire... from Elohim out of heaven" Revelation 20:9, and they will come against the holy city to try and conquer it.  And guess what time this will be?  That's right, the Feast of Tabernacles (Zechariah 14:18), and they will be burned up  "this is the second death." Revelation 20:14, not the second chance!  Then YAHUSHUA will make all things new.

    "For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I make, shall remain before Me, saith YAHUWAH, so shall your seed and your name remain.  And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another shall all flesh come to worship before Me, saith YAHUWAH." Isaiah 66:22, 23

 HalleluYAH!
