If the last day of Feast of Tabernacles is this Thursday, Friday could be significant as it is Shemini Atzeret. I was listening to Jonathan Cahn, a Messianic Jewish rabbi on TBN. He mentioned the Feast of Tabernacles lasting 7 days and then brought up the eighth day is significant because 8 refers to the eternal. He went on to talk about the 7's referring to God creating the world in 7 days, and all the 7's in the Book of Revelation. But 8 is what comes after, the time of the millenium and the eternal. Perhaps there is a rapture significance here: if so, this Friday and Saturday are also high watch days. Wouldn't it be neat to be gone before Halloween? It would definitely make Halloween more spooky for those left behind! Here's what hebcal.com says about Shemini Atzeret and the day following: "the Eighth [day] of Assembly") is a Jewish holiday. It is celebrated on the 22nd day of the Hebrew month of Tishrei (first month of calendar). In the Diaspora, an additional day is celebrated, the second day being separately referred to as Simchat Torah. In Israel and Reform Judaism, the holidays of Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah are combined into a single day and the names are used interchangeably. Wow, as soon as I posted this I went back to my e-mail and Tom Gaston had just sent a Bible Code out indicating the Sabbath, October 30 as the rapture date! Here's something else of interest. Whereas, I mentioned before, two of the Gospels say the Mount of Transfiguration (representation of the rapture) happened on the sixth day, the Book of Luke says it happened on the eighth day: Luke 9:28-36 New King James Version Jesus Transfigured on the Mount 34 While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were fearful as they entered the cloud. 35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!” 36 When the voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. But they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen. Thanks for all of these posts Earthangel, they are very encouraging! Funny coincidence about your avatar name....my sister in law brought me a gift from traveling as a belated birthday gift. It is a bracelet and it has a charm and words about earthangels. Thought it was a funny coincidence that she brought me that (yesterday) and you posted posts that have greatly encouraged me that I read today :yes: Even if we are still here Monday, I really just needed a little extra to get through this weekend :heart: Matthew and Mark say "after" six days not a disagreement in accounts 
28 Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening. 30 And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in glory and spoke of His decease which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. 32 But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; and when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men who stood with Him. 33 Then it happened, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah”—not knowing what he said.
