By now, you've likely heard about the last in a series of dramatic solar eclipses visible across the United States over the last several years. Could this be America’s last total solar eclipse? Weeeelll, so long as Alaska is still a part of the United States in 2033, probably not. March 30, 2033, will usher in another eclipse for Alaska and a corner of Russia, but after that, we aren’t scheduled to have another total solar eclipse until 2044. Think we’ll still be around? Shrug.
“Why does it even matter?” some may ask.
Native people, for countless generations, have seen signs in the heavens as important portents from the Spirit World.
“Isn’t that pagan superstition?”
Not so much, no.
Genesis 1:14 tells us that our Creator gives us the sun, moon, and stars in the heavens as signs for us. It reminds me of the comedian Bill Engvall saying, “Here’s your sign.” Sometimes, we puny humans get so wrapped up in our daily life on the anthill we call Earth that the Maker of Heaven and Earth has to create a dramatic display to be a sign and portent to us; basically, to get our attention.
And attention, this eclipse is getting.
On August 21, 2017, and again on October 14, 2023, total solar eclipses were visible in a streak across America. And here comes our third warning. The graphic of the field of visibility of the eclipses creates an interesting shape, as some scholars have pointed out: You can see both of the letters “aleph” and “tav” in the ancient Hebrew script. Aleph and Tav are, respectfully, the first and last letters of the Hebrew alphabet, and they have the indication of the first and the last. In two of John's visions, he wrote that he saw Yeshua, who said that He is the aleph and the tav, the first and the last.
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” ~ Revelation 1:8
Alpha and Omega are Greek but in Hebrew it was “aleph” and “tav.”
What is this sign telling us?
Get ready for hard times.
Repent and be restored to your Creator through His Son, Chief CornerStone Yeshua.
Here’s your sign.
