God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

There are…some who believe that it was likely during the Feast of Tabernacles that Jesus was born. While we celebrate Christ’s birth on December 25, most scholars acknowledge that this tradition was begun in the fourth century AD by the Roman Catholic Church and that the exact day of Jesus’ birth is unknown. Some of the evidence that Jesus might have been born earlier in the year during the Feast of the Tabernacles includes the fact that it would be unlikely for shepherds to still be in the field with their sheep in December, which is in the middle of the winter, but it would have been likely they were in the fields tending sheep at the time of the Feast of Tabernacles. The strong possibility that Jesus was born at the time of the Feast of Tabernacles is also seen in the words John wrote in John 1:14. “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” The word John chose to speak of Jesus “dwelling” among us is the word tabernacle, which simply means to “dwell in a tent.”

There are some false teachers who take the concept of kenosis too far, saying that Jesus gave up all or some of His divine nature when He came to earth. This heresy is sometimes referred to as the kenosis theory, but a better term is kenoticism or kenotic theology, to distinguish it from biblical understanding of the kenosis.

INGREDIENTS

350 g Rough Puff Pastry
1 kg Apples; Golden Delicious or Granny Smith
3 tb Lemon juice
2 tb Butter; unsalted
50 g Sugar
2 Eggs
100 g Sugar
6 tb Butter; unsalted, melted
1 ts Vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS

FILLING
TOPPING
(350 g = 12.5 ounces; 1 kg = 2 pounds; 50 g = 1 3/4 ounces)
On a lightly floured surface, carefully roll out the dough to a 12-inch (30
cm) circle.
Transfer the dough to a 10 1/2-inch (27 cm) black tin tart pan with a
removable bottom.
Carefully press the pastry into the pan and up the sides, trying not to
stretch it.
Trim the overhang, leaving about a 1-inch (2.5 cm) extending over the rim.
Tuck this overhang inside the pan, pressing gently against the side to
create a sturdy, double-sided shell.
(If you build the pastry a bit higher than the height of the pan, you will
have less problem with shrinkage)
Chill for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375 oF (190 oC).
Prick the bottom of the shell with the tines of a fork. Carefully line the
shell loosely with heavy-duty foil, pressing well into the edges so the
pastry does not shrink while baking.
Fill with pie weights, or dry rice or beans - making sure you get all the
way into the edges - to prevent shrinkage.
Bake just until the pastry begins to brown around the edges and seems firm
enough to stand up by itself (about 20 minutes).
Meanwhile, peel and core the apples. Cut each apple into 12 even wedges.
Toss them in a bowl with the lemon juice to prevent discoloration.
In a Iarge skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the apples,
sprinkle on the sugar, and saute, shaking the pan from time to time so the
apples cook evenly.
Cook until lightly browned on all sides (about 15 minutes.)
While the apples cook, prepare the topping: beat the eggs and sugar
thoroughly until thick and pale. Add the melted butter and vanilla and
continue mixing at high speed until the ingredients are thoroughly
incorporated.
Spoon the apples into the center of the prepared pastry shell, arranging
them carefully. Pour the topping over the apples.
Bake until golden, about 30 minutes.
