Since the time of Moses, only nine red heifers have been sacrificed. Now, a “massive altar” for the tenth red heifer sacrifice has been built in Israel, and there is a tremendous amount of speculation that it could happen soon. In September 2022, five red heifers were flown from the state of Texas to the land of Israel. Since that time, one of them has been disqualified, but the other four continue to be candidates for a red heifer sacrifice. As I discussed last week, there was “a practice run of the purification ceremony” in 2023. But an official ceremony must be conducted before the heifers get too old to be used for such a sacrifice.
Some Jews and Christians believe sacrificing the heifers is key to rebuilding the Jewish temple that once stood in Jerusalem, and to beckoning the Messiah.
Last month, All Israel News reported that the Temple Institute wants to conduct a sacrifice “before Passover 2024”…
As of now, four of the heifers remain blemish-free and, according to Temple Institute rabbis, they hope to carry out the ceremony before Passover 2024.
This year, the Jewish people will celebrate Passover on April 22nd.

Ugh! More killing in the name of religion “so we can be pure”. The “logic” of that thinking defies common sense and begs the question: Who is this “god” that you are you worshiping who demands blood and suffering and death on his altar?
One of my spiritual teachers used to mockingly say “killing in the name of religion” and then just shake his head.
