The Law could not fulfill Archives - Page 2 of 3

The Holocaust

Over six million Jews
In Europe were slain
Sadistically murdered
Causing mayhem and pain.

The mystery of history
The Jew still remains
Preserved, indestructible
Despite sorrow and pain.

On this ‘Feast of First Fruits’
A burnt and grain offering
Foreshadowing Messiah
And His people, following.

How God frees from bondage
All those, captive to sin
Jesus’ blood, our atonement
To cleanse of leaven, within.

Though God has chastised
They faced every threat
But His Covenant people
He does not forget.

Grew up with tradition
Lived under the Law
Rabbinical Judaism, Yiddish
Was the life that I saw.

Scattered, through sin
The scriptures foretold
Now fulfilling prophesy
God’s Word of old.

Reconciled thro’ His death
To God, in one body
Fulfilling God’s Law
A new covenant, to embody.

O Hallelujah, thro’ Messiah
All our sins washed away
With Him died, and we rise
His special treasure, every day.

While Gentiles sought not
God and His holiness
But now have attained
By faith, His righteousness.
