The Day of Atonement is viewed as the holiest day of Judaism. The day is a Sabbath of rest. Yom Kippur is the only appointment a fast is required. The appointment begins at sun down. It is the last day of the 40 day period of Teshuvah. See Leviticus 16 for details of Yom Kippur/Day of Atonement.

Russia has released a list of "friendly and neutral" countries allowed to trade on its currency exchange market:

The conflict, which had been simmering for more than 30 years, ended in two days with #Azerbaijan's victory and restoration of control over its internationally recognised territory.
The Azerbaijani Defence Ministry said an agreement had been reached in #Karabakh:
Exodus 30:13-16 This is what everyone who is numbered shall give: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs), half a shekel as a contribution to the Lord. Everyone who is numbered, from twenty years old and over, shall give the contribution to the Lord. The rich shall not pay more and the poor shall not pay less than the half shekel, when you give the contribution to the Lord to make atonement for yourselves. You shall take the atonement money from the sons of Israel and shall give it for the service of the tent of meeting, that it may be a memorial for the sons of Israel before the Lord, to make atonement for yourselves.โ
Our economic status does not matter. We are all equal before God.
A rare silver half-shekel coin inscribed with the words โThe Holy Jerusalemโ in Hebrew and dated to 66/67 CE was discovered in the Ein Gedi nature reserve in the Judean Desert.
Genesis 6:4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of mankind, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

Ezekiel 38:1, 2, 5, 6 Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, โSon of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him… Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troopsโmany people are with you.

1 Timothy 1:8-11 Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it legitimately. We realize that law is not enacted for the righteous, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and profane, for killers of father or mother, for murderers, for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave traders and liars and perjurers, and for anyone else who is averse to sound teaching that agrees with the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.

One week later, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko is talking out of both sides of his mouth.
“As we move along, we become more and more convinced that they (the weapons) must be stationed here, in Belarus, in a reliable place. I am certain that we will never have to use them while they are here. And no enemy will ever set foot on our land.” -President Alexander Lukashenko
Previously, Lukashenko indicated he would be willing to use nuclear weapons.
One thing is clear, Belarus does possess nuclear weapons and they are going to be receiving more from Russia by the end of 2023.

Israel discovers more natural gas in the Mediterranean Sea. The Katlan gas field has an estimated 68 billion cubic meters (BCM) of natural gas. When combining the Leviathan, Tamar, Karish, and Tanin gas fields, Israel has over 1,000 BCM of natural gas reserves. Israel consumes approximately 13 BCM per year.

Woe to you inhabitants of the seacoast, you nation of the Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines; and I will destroy you until no inhabitant is left.
As usual, the rocket exchange between the Palestinians and the Israelis is all about perspective.
The events appear to be initiated by the death of Palestinian Islamic Jihadโs Khader Adnan. He was on a hunger strike for 86 days. Adnan was arrested in Israel on terrorism charges. When it was announced he died, four rockets were launched from Gaza. Israel responded. Then the two sides exchanged volleys.
Isaiah 66:7-8 Before she was in labor she gave birth; before her pain came upon her she delivered a son. Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day?

Magog and the Revelation’s “Kings of the East” merge closer together…
Russia plans to increase gas exports to China by 50% this year, from 15 to 22 billion cubic meters.
This shift towards China is part of Russia’s move away from the West due to sanctions.
The Chinese currency accounted for 23% of Russian import payments last year, up from 4% in the previous year.
“The yuan and ruble are in high demand, so that vector will continue. China already pays in yuan for gas and partially for oil, there are settlements in the ruble as well,” Alexander Novak, Russian Deputy Prime Minister.
Currency consolidation and DE-dollarization continue. This time, South America is looking to transact in a currency that is not the dollar. The central banks of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay are looking to come together in a common currency.
And Jesus said, “There will be quakes in various places…”

As of this report, fifty seven civilians on the ground have been killed. Air travel to Sudan has been stopped. A passenger plane has been hit by a projectile. Two people aboard the plane have been killed.
The World Food Program has stopped services after three staff were killed.
Sudan’s Joint Chiefs of Staff says that there will be no negotiations or dialogue before the dissolution of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). – Reuters
