Shabbat Shalom to those concerned. Thank you Jason and searchinmyroots for your response. King David prayed for HaShem to: "Open Thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Thy Torah." To those who have "unopened" eyes, it may appear to be "messy," and "hidden," but those who are blessed to behold those wondrous things out of The Torah, they will BEGIN to see much more than what the Foundation of the Torah (the ritual of the red heifer) has hidden within it.
Take for example the New Moon. HaShem declared that when the Children of Israel were in the process of leaving Egypt, that it was the BEGINNING of their MOONS (months - Exo 12:2). So this was in a symbolic sense, a New Moon when they came forth out of Egypt. Consider the symbolism. You have a people leaving Egypt (a symbol of hard bondage-iniquity Isa 1:4), and they are told that in relation to the world, they are but a small sliver of people that Elohim has elevated ABOVE all the peoples on the face of the earth: Deut 7:6-7 “For you are a set-apart people to יהוה your Elohim. יהוה your Elohim has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a treasured possession above all the peoples on the face of the earth. 7“יהוה did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more numerous than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples,
Isn't that what a New Moon is? It is a BODY that is ABOVE all the peoples on the face of the earth, and for it to be a New Moon, it starts out as just a small sliver (least of all peoples). Those who left Egypt were just a small sliver of mankind. And what did they do? They were given LIGHT, were they not? Prov 6:23 For the command is a lamp, And the Torah a light, And reproofs of discipline a way of life, Yes, the Torah is a LIGHT, and it was given to the Children of Israel for them to REFLECT upon the face of the earth....just as the physical moon reflects the light of the sun upon the face of the earth.
Now, why would Moses be so messy and try to hide that the Children of Israel were a New Moon, reflecting the Torah upon this earth? Can a physical moon be a symbol of a people, just like a red heifer can be a symbol of the Messiah??? Blessings in The Name, ImAHebrew
