Prophetic Word For America – The Sound Of The Millstone

By Annamarie Strawhand | August 1, 2023

This is a wonderful prophetic biblical teaching that Annamarie Strawhand presented on her broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane on July 31, 2023. Be encouraged by what the Lord is showing us that is coming to America and to us individually!

Watch the video teaching below, and follow up by reading the notes provided, proclaiming the scripture, and watching the short videos that were a part of this teaching.

Notes: The Sound Of The Millstone And The Voice Of The Bridegroom And The Voice Of The Bride

Based on these scriptures: Jeremiah 25:10-12 and Jeremiah 33:11,12

Punishment For Sin And Non Repentance

Jeremiah 25:10-12 KJV

10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth (laughter, dancing, amusement), and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.11 And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.12 And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the Lord, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations.

Restoration Of Blessing For Forgiveness Of Sins – Repentant Nation – Now We Have The Branch – Jesus Christ – Bridegroom And Bride – The Church

Jeremiah 33:10-15 KJV

10 Thus saith the Lord; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast, 11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the Lord of hosts: for the Lord is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the Lord. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the Lord. 12 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down. 13 In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the Lord. 14 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah. 15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.

When The Millstones Are Working There Is Still God’s Prosperity And Blessing In The Land

The sound of the millstone means blessing and prosperity

The voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride

These Pictures Are Of The Very First House Mike’s Grandparents Moved Into When They First Got Married In 1930s

There used to be a mill near there. Soon after they were married, they got offered the store. They prospered it by faith and bought their dream house that we now live in.

They started in that house, so god is teaching us something. I was wondering what that millstone meant out front of that house.

I Thought It Meant Something Bad And I Went To The Lord And Asked Him If The Millstone Meant Something Good

He showed me, YES IT CAN MEAN SOMETHING GOOD!

Then He said, “THE SOUND OF THE MILLSTONE IS STILL UPON AMERICA!”

George Washington’s mill at Mount Vernon is still operational and running daily!

I WAS AMAZED!

IT’S A SOUND!

FREEDOM HAS A SOUND

PROSPERITY HAS A SOUND

Listen to the sound of George Washington’s Gristmill in this YouTube video.

The Millstone is still sounding in this Nation!

Now, we know that there is also a scripture (Matthew 18:6) that says that those who hurt the children will be punished by hanging a millstone from their neck and drowning them at sea.

I realized it means that not only will they be punished by death but all their prosperity will be stripped from them too. their sound will be GONE! Their means of making money will sink with them.

I knew that millstone near Granny and Papa’s first house when they got married must have had a good meaning because they loved and served the Lord faithfully all their lives.

I knew there were mills around there because, if a mill is torn down, the millstone remains because it’s so heavy. They are hard to move.

There is a road near there called Mill Landing Road. That road is Nanneys Creek Rd. These mills were water powered.

The house was yellow and was one room — a one-room house. Papa had two pairs of pants, one for work and one for church. Granny washed his work pants every night and put them on the back of the chair to dry for him to put on clean pants in the morning. They were a Proverbs 31:10 couple!

So when I went by there yesterday on our truck ride, I asked Mike about the house again and the millstone. He said they did not stay there too long it was their newlywed house. Then they got the store and God prospered them.

They bought the house we are in with cash — 160,000 in cash in a brown bag!

They never spent a day apart. It’s an amazing story of marriage.

Listen to this Jewish wedding song: Od Yishama (There Will Be Heard) by Shlomo Katz.

THERE WILL BE HEARD – THE VOICE OF THE BRIDEGROOM AND THE VOICE OF THE BRIDE

THE SOUND OF THE MILLSTONE

THE JOY OF THE LORD

This is THE HOPE the Lord is giving us right now

The women in Israel also had small millstones to grind flour, and they had the bigger mills. The sound was steady all the time and comforted the people.

So I listened to the sound of the mill running at George Washington’s Mount Vernon with my eyes closed, just listening.

There is a blessing on this nation that cannot be stopped! It is ordained by God.

I AM RELEASING THIS AS A WORD FOR NOW AND OUR FUTURE

WE GOT CONFIRMATION ON THE PROVERBS 31 WORD OVER THE WEEKEND AND NOW THIS WORD

SOUND OF THE MILLSTONE – HOPE AND PROSPERITY – BRIDES AND BRIDEGROOMS AND JOY

Declare This Verse Over Yourself!

Prophetic Revelation: Sharks, Hammers, and Military

By Annamarie Strawhand | June 19, 2023

Transcription of the word that the Holy Spirit gave to Annamarie Strawhand, which she delivered during her broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane on June 19, 2023.

Watch the video, and then read the transcript below.

ANNAMARIE: And the Lord has been speaking to me about hammers, sharks, and hammerheads. I go to my husband’s friend’s house. Now, he’s got a hammerhead shark over the door of his new garage, and I remembered, oh, my goodness, the Lord has been showing me sharks and hammerheads, sharks and hammerheads.

And so I was like, “All right, a hammerhead shark. Lord, You’re showing me hammers and sharks, hammers and sharks. Saturday mor, Saturday afternoon we get invited to go have hamburgers at our friend’s house, and he’s got a hammerhead shark over his doorway.” I was like, “Hmm, okay, what’s going on here?”

Well, let me tell you. All right, and I’m going to bring this. I said to my team, “Look. Confirmation.” Gynti says, “Only God.” And then Gynti says, “This …,” she was shown this today, “Breaker in Chief!” Right? President Trump has the breaker anointing, according to Isaiah 45, right? He’s got a breaker what? In his mouth. The breaker’s in your mouth. You speak it, and when you speak it, God goes before you and breaks down the bars of iron. Come on.

And I’ve been, I had a word called, “Alabama Hammer,” that something will come out of Alabama and will be like a hammer. Uh, the Lord had revealed it could be, uh, Jeff Sessions, something that Jeff Sessions did with President Trump. Will be something that will hammer the enemy.

And then now we’re seeing this, speaking of hammer, breaker in chief, breaker anointing, hammer.

Okay, here we go. So I’m being shown something here about the US Military right now by the Lord. I’m seeing that sharks are being used by the United States Military to seek and destroy the octopus.

Now, this is, I saw an octopus in the spirit. The octopus is George Soros and everything having to do with George Soros. Right? He’s operating with the Antichrist spirit. I believe George Soros or either Obama are actually the Antichrist. I’ve believed that for some time.

Okay, I’m hearing a code word: shark bait, shark week. Something is happening in the seas with our military, top secret against the enemy.

Now, this is what the Lord was showing me in the spirit, prophetically.

Every time I saw Soros, the Holy Spirit would show me an evil octopus. I know there are very demonic marine spirits, and the spirit of pride is controlled by Leviathan, but God Himself will smite down Leviathan.

The Lord revealed to me something major is happening in the waters, something, oh, my goodness, and I thought, “What would the military use sharks for?” And then I got my team working on it.

“Is there a piece of equipment or a weapon called a shark?” And then we started doing our research.

Recently, the US Navy has developed a new type of smart mine weapon called the “hammerhead shark.”

What?! And I’m seeing these hammerhead sharks.

It is reported that the US Military intends to deploy this mine weapon in large numbers in the western Pacific as the key strait waterways near the eastern Atlantic.

And I said, “This is what the Lord is revealing to me. The tentacles of the demonic have been cut off.” Come on!

And then I saw Hawaii, and then I saw Diamondhead. And then I remembered the Lord saying, “Return the diamonds,” President Trump saying, “Return the diamonds.” Are the diamonds the children? Are there more islands involved other than the island that? Uh, we knew there was an island that was being, child trafficking was being done on, and the Lord said there’s more islands involved. He was showing me Hawaii, and He was showing me Diamondhead, and He was showing me other areas.

And then I heard from the Lord. He said, “The enemy is surrounded.” The enemy is surrounded by our military. They can’t, they have nowhere to go. They’re surrounded. They’re surrounded like sharks have surrounded them.

Listen to me, hear the word of the Lord. The Lord is revealing to me right now and to all of you that the enemy is surrounded. They can go to hide on their islands. They can go hi, try to hide in the waters. They can try to go under their mountains, under their volcanoes and hide. They can try to go in their tunnels, but they’re surrounded. Our military has them surrounded like sharks with their prey. The enemy is surrounded.

I said, “Oh, my goodness, the Lord is downloading this to me right now.” And Goose says, Gynti, “Remember the pic I sent you? Hammerhead bat also known as the winged moose, and the new smart line, mine that the US Navy launched is called “hammerhead shark.” And I said, “What?”

The United States launched a new type of smart mine called “hammerhead shark,” which will become a deadly killer of ships and a new challenge to the Chinese and Russian navies.

Now, we know that Russia is actually good, but I believe this is for the traffickers. Come on.

And then this just showed up on my feed on Facebook. I saw this. Look at this: Shark baits. Jaws is coming, but what is it coming after? The octopus. The octopus. Hatteras Jack, he’s on the East Coast. Right? There’s a octopus or a squid, right? The shark is coming after it.

Then I see this, right after it. Right after it. What are the chances on my feed that I see something from Hatteras, Jaws, shark bait, eating a squid, or the octopus, which represents Soros and all his tentacles, and then I see Hawaii, Diamondhead. What?! What?! The Lord is speaking here! Those evil, wicked, demonic people that are led by Soros and Obama are shark bait. They’re shark bait. Their tentacles are getting chopped off! They’re surrounded by our military.

And look to Hawaii. I know it’s upsetting, my friends. Diamindhead. Is there evil things going on there? The Lord is pointing to it. The Lord is saying the enemy is shark bait. Diamondhead. Hawaii is connected to Obama, again, Antichrist.

Then I just saw the other day, Jim Caviezel just spoke in an interview that there were other islands where they had children.

I don’t know if anybody saw that interview done by actor Jim Caviezel who, whose movie is coming out, uh, about catching the child traffickers. And Jim Caviezel just did an interview where he said that Epstein Island is not the only island where they were doing child trafficking, and he was, you could tell his spirit was so grieved. He was so upset. I, I see the spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost so strong on Jim Caviezel. It’s in, it’s incredible, and I have a feeling that he knows, he knows all this.

And he just spoke in an interview that said there’s other islands where they have children, and now the Lord is showing me Diamondhead and Hawaii.

We know the traffickers are using submarines and ships, and we had a word that the hammer would be coming — Alabama hammer. Hammerhead? Alabama has a navy base?

“Yes, look at those transcripts I forwarded the other night…one about the hammer,” Gynti says, “and the bat, batman, bat cave, and the tunnels! And Trump is God’s bull moose. What’s happening right now with him? I was discerning a convergence of those words.”

We had a word, a powerful word from the Lord in 2021. The Spirit of the Lord came upon me very strongly, and He said, “Chutes and ladders, convergence of the military coming from all directions. They will be parachuting in. They will be coming in with ships, submarines, planes, tanks, parachutes. They will be coming in from all areas, from the north, south, east, and the west to take out this evil.” Um-hm, I had a word that that’s going to happen.

Here’s an article from 2020: Everything you need to know about the military and Sharks for discovery shark week.

Now, the Lord is saying to me that the military’s going to use a code called shark week, and they’re going to release these military equipment called sharks. I believe it’s happening right now. I believe that they, the, the military has got the evil, wicked people surrounded and these traffickers surrounded. They’ve got these islands surrounded.

And then I found out that the military actually trained actual sharks, the actual animal. Listen to this, “Military units and ships are named after sharks. There are several military units and ships named after sharks. Examples: USS Shark (which is the name of several navy ships and sur, submarines); Marine Wing Support Squadron 371 … Now, I was seeing the numbers 321. We know seven means God has completed a thing … (known as sand sharks), and the Air Force 73, 75th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron nicknamed Tiger Sharks. Come on.

The Tiger Sharks have a history dating back to World War II when they were first known as the Flying Tigers. The squadron became famous for it’s efforts in the China Theater as well as distinctive airplane nose art, which was painted with a distinctive shark face with open jaws on the, on the nose of the P-40 Warhawks.

Now, we’ve got one of those P-40 Warhawks right here in Virginia Beach with the shark teeth painted on it, um, at the air museum which is right down the street from me. I got a picture with it somewhere.

The navy has a robot shark. The navy has designed, designed an underwater drone that looks and moves just like a shark. The drone, called the Ghost Swimmer, is part of the navy Silent NEMO Project, and it is one of the many biomimicry projects the military’s undertaken in the past few years.

What the Lord is saying is it’s being done right now. I’m hearing prophetically from the Lord that these sharks, these navy robot sharks and anything having to do with sharks in the navy and our military is in the water right now. They’ve got the enemy surrounded and they’re going and they’re taking over these islands. Come on.

Ghost Swimmer can operate in water depths from 10 inches to 300 feet and has the potential to be used for intelligence gathering and surveillance missions. In other words, the world’s first spy shark.

You see, President Trump said, “We’ve got it. We’ve got it all. We know, we know it all.” Come on. Come on. He knows. He knows. Look at that, eagle eye. Go directly to GITMO. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.00. They’re going to be taken off their islands, and they’re going to be put on an island, those evil ones, and they’re going to be executed. Come on.

President Trump, he caught them. He caught them all. They’re surrounded. They have nowhere to go. Come on.

Prophetic Insight: Trump-Kennedy Tartans

By Annamarie Strawhand | April 6, 2023

On April 6, 2023, the Holy Spirit began showing me something regarding Trump, Scotland, Plaid, Tartan, Tribes of Israel, and the Coat of Many Colors of Joseph.

I shared the notes I took down on my social media pages that evening and talked further about it on my Life in the Faith Lane broadcast on Monday, April 10, 2023.

Watch the video below and then see the notes that follow.

Notes

The Holy Spirit is showing me something regarding Trump, Scotland, Plaid, Tartan, Tribes of Israel, and the Coat of Many Colors of Joseph.

Tartan Day is a North American celebration of Scottish heritage on 6 April, the date on which the Declaration of Arbroath was signed in 1320. It originated in Canada in the mid-1980s. It spread to other communities of the Scottish diaspora in the 1990s. Wikipedia

Date: Thursday, April 6, 2023

Celebrations: Parades of pipe bands, Highland dancing, and other Scottish-themed events

Today is TARTAN DAY

Tartan Identifies the Clan or Tribe of Scotland – it is rooted to the banner colors over each tribe of Israel

An analysis of the meaning of the Hebrew term “cotonet pasim” and a comparison with garments of tartan-type design worn by Ancient Hebrews indicates that indeed the cloak of Joseph had a tartan design.

But what does it matter?

Why should we care?

What is the type of dress worn by Joseph supposed to tell us one way or other?

If we were to find tartan type designs in archaeological findings in China, Japan, Africa, would it make any difference?

In answer, we would reply, Probably Not!

[In fact, as we will see, tartan designs have been recovered by archaeological excavations in China but here too they may be attributed to an offshoot of the Celts that moved eastward.]

The Ten Tribes of Israel who were exiled by the Assyrians and lost their identity became entities in Western Europe.

Part of the tribe of Joseph reached Scotland. Other Israelites reached Ireland and other portions of what in Modern Terms is considered ancient Celtic Civilization. The Tartan design became associated with Celtic bodies. From Ireland it passed to Scotland along with the Scots who gave Scotland its name. In Scotland it became a national symbol. Today in popular consciousness the design, especially as seen on the Kilt, it is considered particularly Scottish and the Scottish themselves so relate to it.

We know from other sources that many of the inhabitants of Scotland (and their offshoots in Ulster and North America etc) descend from Joseph especially Manasseh. There is therefore significance that the Scottish alone retain and maintain the same dress that distinguished Joseph from his brothers.

Genesis 37 (New King James Version)

37:3 Now Israel (Jacob) loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age. Also he made him a tunic of many colors.

37:4 But when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they hated him and could not speak peaceably to him.

The tartan dress according to this may well have been the same dress that set Joseph apart from all the others. If this is so it has significance. It does not prove anything in itself but seen in the light of Brit-Am Teaching concerning the Scottish and their Israelite Origins it is well worth considering.

The implication is that the cloak of Joseph had a tartan design. This design was similar to that known from the region of Ancient Canaan (Land of Israel) and may have been maintained by a portion of the Lost Ten Tribes (including the Tribes of Joseph) when they went into Exile. Some of these tribes reached the British Isles. In the past a tartan design was to be found amongst several of them. [Ancient tartan designs have also been reported from Scandinavia.] The Scottish received the design (together with the Scots) from Ireland. Only Scotland kept the design as part of its national self-recognition. From Scotland the design and the concept of a tartan distinctiveness has spread elsewhere and today is rather important in Canada and the USA. Since descendants of Joseph appear to be those who have persistently appreciated the design and elevated it to national levels then this could well reflect an instinctive subconscious identification with Joseph. Alternately the link between descendants of Joseph and the continued use of the tartan design may be attributed to Divine Providence. Either way it has an importance.

Trump – Scotland – America

TRUMP (MacLeod) TARTAN

TRUMP (MacLeod) SCOTTISH TARTAN

FITZGERALD (KENNEDY) SCOTTISH TARTAN

“Torah Shleymah” (Hebrew) by Menachem Mendel Kasher, Jerusalem, 5752.

on Genesis 37:3 (p. 1398 note 48) says:

# PASIM. Each and every PAS [i.e. stripe] was an entity on its own like [overlapping in a diamond-type pattern] the ears on a piece [Hebrew: “pisat” from PAS] of grain # Midrash HaChafets Manuscript.[48]

Note 48: # ..The Tunic was made of stripes with one stripe of one color and the next stripe of another like a Miletus garment which is made [plaided] of plaited stripes #

Explanation: A certain type of fine woolen cloth was named after Miletus [Milet in Hebrew]. Here it says that clothing from Miletus was woven in plaited plaids. It was folded in on itself and woven in diagonal lines.

An example of plaits is seen with girls with long hair who sometimes plait a kind of pony-tail with the plaits overlapping each other.

The Midrashic source says that each plaited unit was of a different color.

This is in effect a garment woven in the pattern such as that of the Temple Service tunic:

http://britam.org/tartan3.html

i.e. in a diamond (tartan) -type pattern but in the case of the Coat of Joseph not only was the tunic woven in such a fashion but also the colors were variegated.

In the story of Tamar, daughter of David (2-Samuel 13:18) we read:

#Now she had on a robe of many colors [“cotonet passim”], for the king’s virgin daughters wore such apparel. #

The “cotonet passim” given by Jacob to Joseph was also a mark of rank and status.

Daat Mikra: #It would appear that we would not be mistaken in suggesting that Jacob when he made this garment intended that there should be fulfilled in Joseph the prophecy he had just received that “kings shall come from your body” (Genesis 35: 11)# (DM Genesis 37:4 n.14b).

Gersonides opined that Cotonet Pasim connoted royalty.

Nachmanides (1194-1270, Spain, Jerusalem in Israel)

Nachmanides (like Gersonides) mentions both the signification of royalty and the tartan-type [tashbets] design.

Nachmanides (Exodus 28:2): ## For these clothes are clothes of royalty and like unto them were worn by monarchs in the time of the Torah. And so we find concerning the Cotonet, “he made him a tunic of many colors” (Genesis 37:3), meaning embroidered in the form of lines [Pasim] this being a garment of [tartan-type] Squares [tashbets]##.

THIS CONFIRMS THE WORD GOD GAVE US THAT BOTH DONALD J TRUMP AND JOHN F KENNEDY JUNIOR BOTH KNOW THEIR ROYAL BLOODLINES COME FROM JUDAH AND JOSEPH

THEY HAVE BEEN TELLING US WITH THE TARTANS

THE ANGELS OF AMERICA AND SCOTLAND IN MY VISION IN HEAVEN WITH JESUS “A PAGE HAS BEEN TURNED” WITH SCOTLAND THE BRAVE ON THE BAGPIPES AND THE DRUM AND FIFE AND BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC

JUDAH AND JOSEPH

PROPHECY OVER THE JUDAH BLOODLINE: “The scepter shall not depart from Judah” (earthly kings – with the right to rule until the second coming of Christ)

Genesis 49:10-12 Amplified Bible (AMP)“The scepter [of royalty] shall not depart from Judah, Nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, Until Shiloh [the Messiah, the Peaceful One] comes, And to Him shall be the obedience of the peoples.

PROPHECY OVER THE JOSEPH BLOODLINE: “Kings and Nations shall come from you/the crown on the head of him” (sons of Joseph – Ephraim and Manessah became a tribe that will be founders of nations and wear the crown of favor, blessing, fruitfulness and leadership – with the fatherly blessing from Jacob. Ephraim is America / Manessah is England- Scotland – Ireland)

They shall be on the head of Joseph,
And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers. Genesis 48.

JUDAH WEPT WHEN HE RECOGNIZED HIS BROTHER JOSEPH! (Coming back together in UNITY!)

Genesis 37:3.

# Cotonot Pasim. This was a sign that Joseph would be the leader in the house and in the field

as it says, AND I WILL CLOTHE HIM WITH THY ROBE [Hebrew “cotonetcha”] …

AND I WILL COMMIT THY GOVERNMENT INTO HIS HAND [Isaiah 22:21].

The “cotonet passim” was not just an attractive garment. It was also a mark of rank.

The tartan kilts and designs in Scotland were also used to denote rank.

The Many-colored coat of Joseph was a mark of rank, decorated with striped lines of different colors, arranged in squares and interlocking with each other. It may not have been exactly like the tattern patterns we are familiar with but neither would it have been much different and could well have given rise to them. It was also probably made of linen. The first tartan cloaks that arrived in Scotland from Ireland were also made of linen.

Mary Anne Trump (née MacLeod; Scottish Gaelic: Màiri Anna Nic Leòid [ˈmaːɾʲɪ ˈan̪ˠa ɲiçkʲ ˈʎɔːtʲ]; May 10, 1912 – August 7, 2000) was a Scottish-American domestic worker. She was the wife of real-estate developer Fred Trump, and the mother of Donald Trump, the 45th president of the United States.

Jewish History

“Covenant Between the Parts” (1743 BCE)
On the 15th of Nissan of the year 2018 from creation (1743 BCE) G-d forged a special covenant with Abraham in which the destiny of the Jewish people was foretold: the Holy Land was bequeathed to them as their eternal heritage, but first they would have to experience galut–exile and persecution. “And He said to Abram: ‘Know surely that your descendants shall be strangers in a land that is not theirs, and they will be enslaved to them, and they will afflict them four hundred years… and afterward they shall come out with great wealth.’ And when the sun went down and it was dark, behold, a smoking furnace and a burning torch which passed between those pieces… On that day G-d made a covenant with Abram, saying: ‘To your seed I have given these land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates'” (Genesis 15:13-18).

Abraham Battles Four Kings (1738 BCE?)
When Lot was taken captive by the four kings who conquered the “five cities of the plain” (Sodom, Gomorra, Admah, Zevoim and Zoar), Abraham, aided only by a small band of loyal servants, went to battle to rescue his nephew; “the night divided for them, for him and his servants, and they defeated them, pursuing them to Hovah, which is to the left of Damascus… And he recovered all the property; also his kinsman, Lot, and his property were recovered, and also the women and the people” (Genesis 14:15-16).

Angels Visit Abraham (1714 BCE)
On the 3rd day following his circumcision at age 99 (see “Today in Jewish History” for Nissan 13) three angels visited Abraham: Rephael healed him, and Michael informed Abraham and Sarah that, in exactly one year, a son will be born to them. (The third angel, Gabriel, proceeded to Sodom to destroy the wicked city).

Isaac Born (1713 BCE)
“G-d remembered Sarah as He had said; and G-d did to Sarah as He had spoken. And Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which G-d had spoken to him… Abraham was a hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born to him. And Sarah declared: ‘G-d has made laughter for me, so that all that hear will laugh (‘yitzchak’) with me'” (Genesis 21:1-6).

Jacob Wrestles with Angel (1556 BCE)
“And Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until the break of dawn. When he saw that he could not prevail against him, he touched the socket of his hip, and the socket of Jacob’s hip became dislocated as he wrestled with him. And he (the angel) said, ‘Let me go, for dawn is breaking,’ but he (Jacob) said, ‘I will not let you go unless you have blessed me.’ So he said to him, ‘What is your name?’ and he said, ‘Jacob.’ And he said, ‘Your name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel; for you have contended with G-d and with men, and have prevailed'” (Genesis 32:25-29). It was the eve of Nissan 15.

The next morning, Jacob confronted Esau in the flesh. Esau, who had come with a band of armed men with the intention to kill his brother, “ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him; and they wept.” Esau invited Jacob to join him in his mountain kingdom of Se’ir, but Jacob replied, “Please, let my lord go on ahead before his servant; and I will lead on slowly, according to the pace of the cattle that goes before me and the children, until I come to my lord to Se’ir” — a promise yet to be fulfilled (ibid., 33:4-14).

Moses at Burning Bush (1314 BCE)
On the 15th of Nissan of the year 2447 from creation (1314 BCE) — exactly one year before the Exodus — Moses was shepherding the flocks of his father-in-law, Jethro, at the foot of Mount Sinai, when G-d appeared to him in a “thornbush that burned with fire, but was not consumed” and instructed him to return to Egypt, come before Pharaoh, and demand in the name of G-d: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.” For seven days and seven nights Moses argued with G-d, pleading that he is the wrong person for the job, before accepting the mission to redeem the people of Israel and bring them to Sinai.

The Exodus (1313 BCE)
At the stroke of midnight of Nissan 15 of the year 2448 from creation (1313 BCE), 210 years after Jacob settled in Egypt and 430 years after the “Covenant Between the Parts,” G-d visited the last of the ten plagues on the Egyptians, killing all their firstborn. Earlier that evening, the Children of Israel conducted the first “seder” of history, eating the roasted meat of the Passover offering with matzot and bitter herbs, and sprinkling the blood of the sacrifice on their doorposts as a sign that G-d will “pass over” their homes when inflicting the plague upon the Egyptians. Pharaoh’s resistance to free them was broken, and he virtually chased his former slaves out of the land. Several million souls–600,000 adult males, plus the woman and children, and a large “mixed multitude” of non-Hebrews who joined them — left Egypt on that day, and began the 50-day trek to Sinai and their birth as G-d’s chosen people.

Queen Vashti Executed (366 BCE)
On the seventh day of his royal feast (see Jewish history for 9 Nissan), King Achashverosh demanded that the Queen Vashti appear unclothed to display her beauty before all the attending guests. When Vashti refused this obscene request, the king had her executed.

Her ignominious death on Shabbat was divine retribution for her penchant to force Jewish girls to work on Shabbat, and paved the way for Esther to become queen and save the Jewish nation from Haman’s plot.

Daniel in Lions’ Den (372 BCE)
Daniel was cast into a den of hungry lions by Darius I of Persia for violating a royal edict that no man may pray to any god save the king for 30 days. Miraculously, the lions did not touch him, and he emerged from the den unscathed (Daniel 6:5-29).
