WND – by Leo HohmannChristians are not the only ones looking for meaning in the plethora of signs aligning in the heavens.
A rare alignment of four blood moons and a total solar eclipse unfolding during a Shemitah year and on biblical feast days, has a Jewish rabbi in Israel asking for special prayer.
And issuing an ominous warning.
Rabbi Amram Vaknin, described as a “mystic rabbi living in southern Israel,” is urging all Jews to pray and repent as the third Blood Moon of a tetrad cycle approaches, according to a report in Breaking Israel News.
Vaknin is not easily dismissed because he reportedly predicted the events of the Gaza flotilla and the Carmel forest fire in 2010, the Operations Pillar of Defense of 2012 and Protective Edge of 2014.
He warns that Israel is facing great judgment and potential danger at this time, according to the report.
The rabbi’s concerns have a lot to do with the number 44 and the current U.S. president.
One of Vaknin’s students, Gil Nachman, spoke to Breaking Israel News and, quoting the rabbi, explained that the numeric value of the Hebrew word for blood, dam, which is 44, alludes to the 44th president of the United States.
Vaknin predicted that the 44th president would “bring bloodshed (dam) to the Jewish people.” It should be noted that the rabbi made this prediction before President Barack Obama’s election to office, according to Breaking Israel News.
Vaknin believes that only 44 plus one, or 45, can counter the danger represented by the blood moons. This, he says, is Adam, or Man, which in this case refers to the Messiah.
“Blood Moons” author, Pastor Mark Biltz, said he agrees with Vaknin’s numerology.
“Because when you add the letter aleph to dam you get adam and aleph has a numeric value of one,” Biltz told WND.
Obama-Iran deal ominous for Israel
The next blood moon is set for Saturday night, April 4, on Passover.
“So here, on Passover, when you put blood on the doorpost you have the Hebrew letter Dalet meaning door and is also the number 4 with a blood moon over it on 4/4 which is the 14th of Nisan going into the 15th of Nisan beginning the Feast of Unleavened Bread,” Biltz said.
The concerns about Obama are also valid, in Biltz’s view, especially now that he has made a pact with Iran on the Islamic republic’s future nuclear capability.
“And here our 44th president has signed off on a nuclear agreement with Israel’s arch-enemy who has declared in no uncertain terms they will destroy Israel,” he said.
It’s interesting that in Hebrew the word for Damascus is 444, Biltz said.
“And in Isaiah there is a prophecy that Damascus will cease from being a city which has never happened before in history.”
Rabbi Vaknin called for a day of prayer at the Western Wall April 1 to encourage the arrival of the Messiah and the redemption of the Jewish people and the world.
“In these critical times, Am Israel must join together to pray to Hashem to send us Mashiach Ben David! Men and women, young and old, observant or not — the more people who come, the stronger the tefilla (prayer),” Vaknin announced on his Facebook page.
The repeated number four is also important to the sage.
Along with the value of 44 and the four Blood Moons of the tetrad, this Passover brings the shortest total lunar eclipse of the 21st century, lasting just 4 minutes, 44 seconds.
Strong tradition of blood moon signs in Talmud
Vaknin is not the first Jewish religious teacher to associate the blood moon tetrad with Jewish redemption, according to Breaking Israel News.
“With the first and third Blood Moons in this current tetrad cycle coinciding with Passover, and the second and fourth with the Feast of Tabernacles, the connections to times of redemption run deep,” the site reported.
The Talmud states, “In [the Hebrew month of] Nisan our forefathers were redeemed from Egypt, and in Nisan we will be redeemed.”
Likewise, the Feast of the Tabernacles is associated in Jewish tradition with the battle of Gog and Magog, the final war that is said to precede the final redemption and arrival of the Messiah.”
This year is also a sabbatical, or Shemitah year, a once every seven years cycle in which the land of Israel is commanded to be left fallow and financial ledgers get wiped clean.
Jonathan Cahn, author of the New York Times-bestseller “The Mystery of the Shemitah,” has also issued warnings that a time of judgment is coming to America and the world in the form of possible stock market collapses and wars. But Cahn has stopped short of predicting such events. Rather, Cahn says “we should be aware” and people of Christian faith should be preparing themselves not only physically but spiritually for difficult times ahead. Even if the judgment doesn’t fall during the Shemitah year, Cahn believes it is guaranteed to come at some point if people don’t repent and turn back to God.
‘Voices of war’
From a Jewish perspective, Yahadoot.net notes that the sages in the Talmud included the following warning: “In the sixth [year there will be] voices [of war], in the seventh [there will be] war, and at the end of the shmitta, the [Messiah] son of Jesse will arrive.”
Although the Talmud never states in which seven-year cycle in history this will be fulfilled, the website suggested that thus far our modern period fits the description.
Breaking Israel News said not everyone agrees on the meaning of the rare tetrad of blood moons.
“The Blood Moon phenomenon has attracted much attention of late thanks to the efforts and solar discoveries by Root Source’s Bob O’Dell and Gidon Ariel. Not everyone is in agreement as to what the Blood Moons signify. According to O’Dell, “All the prior blood moon tetrads point to a pattern of blessing on the Jewish people. They are good news for the Jews. They are a great indicator of God’s love and commitment to the Jewish people to preserve them, and a warning to those who stand in opposition to Israel.”
The Talmud discusses the significance of astronomical events in human history, stating that a solar eclipse is a warning to the nations, while a lunar eclipse signifies danger for the Jewish people, who are likened to the moon, according to the website.
“The Sages go on to explain that this is because God sits in judgment at those times, and human actions and choices are being weighed,” the site reports. “It is a time when our mistakes may come back to haunt us.
“Rabbi Vaknin adds his voice to other religious leaders calling on their followers to pray for peace and security in Israel. Christian leaders Mark Biltz and Bob O’Dell have organized a prayer gathering for Christians worldwide to pray during the 4 minutes and 44 seconds of the total lunar eclipse late Friday night.”

Astronomy is interesting, but all of our problems are very Earthly, so please don’t let this Rabbi’s mysticism be too much of a distraction. Yes, bad things are going to happen, but the moon has absolutely nothing to do with it.
There’s also nothing wrong with faith or religion, unless you allow someone to use it as a tool against you. (like the Christian Zionists did, for example)
Right on but remember the Elite have been at this for over 6,000 years and they can make prophecy real just by controlling the events they want to link to the sky and the Earth.
Enough money, power and technology available to one can accomplish just about anything.
It has been my belief that they created religion and had a good hand in the composition of that book that is so scary. The very fact that it contradicts itself and screws up so much leads me to believe hundreds or more had a hand in it. Just look at all the texts left out.
Just my opinion of course.
yeah, I think you’re right, Susan. They control the Earthly events, and there’s always something going on in the sky to attribute it to.
The heavens could provide them with some of their best patsies. And even if they didn’t write the Bible, their translation of it was all they needed. It was the “Scofield” Bible translation that created the Christian Zionists.
You are right Susan, Its all Self-filling prophecy!!
My translation of the previous article:
Blah blah blah blah Jews…..blah blah blah blah Oy!….. Blah blah blah blah……send us money…….. Blah blah blah blah six plus three minus your aunt Bertha’s pant size……. Blah blah blah blah Talmud.
In a nutshell, stupid goyim should listen to the crooked Jews and give them money or God’s wrath will come at the bloody moon.
Pay attention, you “Jews of good will”, and I will tell you the truth:
The Mashiac has already come. He was the perfect flawless Pesach (Passover) Lamb. His blood bought freedom for the children of Adam – tetelestai – “It is Finished” – the last words uttered by “The Lamb of YHVH, who takes away the sins of the world”. “All who have the Son have the Father, all who deny the Son have neither the Son nor the Father”, and the wrath of God abides upon them.
Stop listening to the “Great sages of memory” from your Talmud – they are liars and filled with all uncleanness. The Babylonian Talmud is a corrupt, filthy lying plague upon your people. Go back to the Law and the Prophets to find where your fathers turned from the Truth.
Read the Prophet Isaiah:
53;
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
This passage speaks of the Mashiac, Yeshua, and was written 700 years before these events took place. Yeshua (Jesus) WAS and IS the Mashiac (the Messiah) of Israel, and of the whole world. There is no other name given under Heaven whereby we MUST be saved.
I pray that perhaps one person will have listened, and turned to find the true Messiah, and the LORD will turn their hard heart into good soil, fit for His use and glory.
For the zionist slavemasters who intend to steal the world for their own use, we are waiting for you, criminals. When the time of patience is complete, so to will be our time of mercy towards you. There will be…..
A rifle behind every blade of grass.
God Bless the Republic;
Death to the New World Order.
No king but King Jesus.
Amen Darzak.
“The Talmud states, “In [the Hebrew month of] Nisan our forefathers were redeemed from Egypt, and in Nisan we will be redeemed.”
The Talmud is THE most vile piece of FILTH EVER WRITTEN!!!
But Israel is not populated with “the people of Israel”. It is populated by the people of Magog, which is what Khazars were called in ancient times.
According to Dr. Shlomo Sand, author of the NYT Best Seller, “The Invention of the Jewish People”, the Hebrews probably converted to Islam when it emerged as the dominant religion in the area. They are the Palestinians and they are being systematically slaughtered by Gog and Magog.
