Finding Messiah in Triennial Ki tavo’u el eretz

Then he who offers his offering unto YHVH shall bring a grain offering of one-tenth of an ephah of fine flour mingled with one-fourth of a hin of oil; and one-fourth of a hin of wine for a drink offering you shall prepare with the burnt offering or the sacrifice, for each lamb. Num 15:4-5

Bread and wine are to accompany the sacrificial lamb.

And He took bread, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave it unto them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” Likewise also He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new testament in My blood, which is shed for you.” Luk 22:19-20

The bread and wine is our reminder of the sacrifice made by the Lamb of God on our behalf.

But there is a second testimony of Messiah. Recall the man who was stoned for gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. The profound Messianic implication of this incident is explained here. In fact, the Gospel of grace is being preached from Torah. Not only is Sabbath rest a prophetic type of salvation by grace through faith and not of works—for if we reject rest, that is, grace, in favor of our work, then we have rejected salvation for condemnation—but also rejecting YHVH’s Word, or Law, is the same as rejecting Him, and comes from a heart of unbelief. Only those who believe in Messiah Yeshua will be saved.
