Commentary: The Feast of Tabernacles was the seventh and final sacred occasion commanded by YHWH in the Torah. It also is the third of three annual pilgrimages, when the children of Israel were to travel to the temple in Jerusalem to worship. The double seven cross above carries the same numbers as Jesus’ genealogy.  The sacrificial numbers of animals of this feast, and other burnt offerings are described in Numbers 29:12-34, Pg 169 that appear on the above cross. Of particular importance are the number of Lambs sacrificed during the 7 days. (14 lambs a day x 7 days = 98 + 14 continuous lambs + 2 Sabbath lambs = 114) Jesus’ Witness Cipher 49 prophecies the Day of Pentecost with the number 114. There are 114 sayings (parables) by Jesus in the Gospel of Thomas. Like the 70-bull countdown, the destruction of the second temple was destroyed in the year 70 CE.  To this day the third Temple has not been built because an islamic mosque occupies the Temple Mount. Since there are 114 Surahs (chapters) in the Qur’an, perhaps YHWH God has a plan to block animal sacrifices that would compete with the final sacrifice of the one marked 77.
