I had wanted to give a more detailed account of my visit with Asher but the anemones/calanit/lilies of the valley happened and I exited off in a beautiful rabbit trail.
Here are the details of the visit with Asher the Jewish shepherd:
I was at our local gas station when I saw Asher with his flock. I was surprised when I saw him because I had not heard that he was out of the hospital. He had been four weeks in the hospital.
When I called out to him and asked how he was he said he was still in a lot of pain with his back. He was resting heavily on his staff as we spoke. My guess, and it’s only a guess, is that the 3 times his ram tossed him like a salad through the air is probably the reason for his back issues. When you go into his pole barn where the animals are he firmly warns you to stay away from the ram he is very, very dangerous.
As we spoke at the gas station he told me he had a lot of lambs born already and was on the way back to his farm with the sheep that had not given birth yet. We live in an agricultural area and there are still natural/wild fields close to where Asher lives….like a kilometer away.
Since he was headed back to the farm I also went there and waited for him to give a hand wherever I could and to offer help whenever he felt he needed it. He really looked terrible in the field, like he was in a lot of pain.
When we were visiting, I verified a second time something that you will want to remember.
Asher gives zero, klum davar, nothing to the sheep that is chemical. This is very, very important if you are looking for information about the pure cycles of Elohim.
Until last year when I met Asher, I was accustom to seeing the large mixed Bedouin flocks of goats and sheep. Asher explains that these flocks are operated by families. Because they have many hands to carry the work it is a benefit to them if the lambs are born all at once. in a tight window. Therefore, they give a hormone to the ewes that regulates the timing of their birth.
On Asher’s farm he is the only person. Period. He has never married. There are no other siblings working with him. He keeps flocks the way that his father before he did. Because he is alone he told me that it is better for him if the sheep have their **natural **extended lambing season. In this manner, he can handle the birth of the lambs by himself.
He said the first lamb was born at the end of October and that the last of them will be born in February. For us, even me, this will cause us to adjust some of our ideaology. He said that they are **early** this year due to the heat! Indeed, we have not had the cold night time temperatures this rainly season as we have in the previous years that I have lived here. I have already returned to sleeping with my windows open, it was 80 degrees yesterday (1/8/2021).
Asher does give his sheep things to increase their fertility but not the **timing** of it. That plant is a curious plant that I love to look at that grows in the wild areas. It’s pretty common. It’s called a spitting cucumber. (link below) with the addition of this plant to their normal food Asher get twins and triple births on a regular basis.
These are Asher’s words and my reporting of them to you allUpdated Jan 8, 2021, 4:14 AM
