Over the years that followed, they began to slowly incorporate the honoring of the Sabbath (Shabbat) and keeping and honoring The Feasts of the Lord (Pesach, Shavuot, Rosh Hashanah and Sukkot. Alongside these adaptations Suuqiina began to passionately pursue the Hebraic mindset and meanings of the scriptures as revealed through extensive study of the roots of Hebrew words and the Paleo-Hebraic language. His studies have brought new revelation and passion about his relationship with Yahweh through Yeshua (Jesus).
