435 THE TEN VIRGINS
So many Christian pastors try to explain this passage without the Hebrew Roots context and sadly they are completely wrong in their understanding. Remember Yeshua was not talking to Catholics, Baptists or any other non-Jewish group. Messiah was speaking to Jewish people when He spoke about “The 10 virgins”. We will look at why Yeshua uses this very strange analogy of “10 Virgins”. Why did He use this analogy? Why did He say 10 and not 7 or 14 or 50? We will study biblically the references to the number 10 and to the number 5. What is the deep understanding needed for anyone to grasp this truly profound section of the word. Why does Messiah speak about two groups of five? What does the number 5 mean in Hebrew? What does the Greek word Messiah used really mean? Once you know the meaning of this word you will truly not want to be one of them. Fasten your seatbelts, put your chairs in there upright positions, sharpen your pencil, have your highlighter ready, get your notebooks prepared, for we don’t want to be left outside the door and be one of those foolish virgins without any oil.
