The Hidden Scroll: What A Forgotten Rosh Hashanah Greeting Card Uncovered About The Last Days

A Thrilling Mystery Story for Messianic Jewish Believers

Prologue: The Scroll That Should Never Have Been Opened

In the cobbled streets of the Old City of Jerusalem, under the shadow of the Western Wall, a teenage girl named Avigail wandered into a forgotten antique shop with her grandfather. The scent of aged parchment hung heavy in the air, whispering secrets from another time.

There, hidden behind a stack of ancient shofars, was a narrow drawer, barely visible, dust-covered and sealed with red wax. It bore the mark of a lion and a lamb entwined—a sign that sent chills down Avigail’s spine.

“What’s that?” she asked.

The shopkeeper stiffened. “That… is not for sale.”

But later that night, Avigail returned alone. She couldn’t explain why, but she knew she had to see what was inside. And when she broke the seal and unrolled the parchment, she didn’t just find ink and vellum.

She found a message for all Messianic believers.

• A mystery.
• A prophecy.
• And a simple, powerful instruction:

“Send the card before the gates close.”

Chapter 1: A Rosh Hashanah Like No Other

Avigail was no ordinary teenager. Born into a Messianic Jewish family, her life had always danced at the edge of two worlds: the ancient traditions of her ancestors and the resurrected hope of Yeshua, the Messiah.

As Rosh Hashanah approached, her community prepared with the usual joy—sweet apples, honey, challah, and the sounding of the shofar. But this year felt different. Weightier. Like Heaven itself was holding its breath.

One morning, while journaling by candlelight, Avigail stumbled upon a forgotten envelope tucked between the pages of her Tanakh. Inside was a folded greeting card—blank, old-fashioned, hand-painted with a fig tree blossoming in front of the Temple Mount.

The back bore just one line, in Hebrew and English:

“Write the vision, and make it plain upon tablets, that he may run who reads it.”— Habakkuk 2:2

It was then that she remembered the scroll from the antique shop. She retrieved it from under her bed and unfurled it completely. The writing shimmered faintly in the candlelight, as if alive.

And what she read made her heart pound.

Chapter 2: The Code in the Card

The scroll told of a hidden remnant. Believers in Yeshua scattered across the globe, awakened by the blowing of the shofar in the last days. It spoke of a “harvest of hearts” that would begin not with sermons, not with miracles, but with simple messages—words of love, of blessing, of repentance—delivered through handwritten, personal greetings.

Greeting cards.

And not just any cards—Rosh Hashanah cards.

Why?

Because Rosh Hashanah is the head of the year—a time when the King is said to draw near, when the books of life and death are opened, and when destinies are sealed.

“Blow the shofar at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day! For it is a statute for Israel, a rule of the God of Jacob.”— Psalm 81:3–4

The scroll said:

“Those who send the words of life during the Head of the Year shall stir the hearts of many. Some shall awaken from slumber. Others shall repent. And a few shall receive dreams.”

The mystery deepened: Each card sent would act like a key—unlocking doors in people’s hearts. The scroll even included designs—ancient patterns, psalms, and prophetic artwork meant to stir something deep within the soul.

And the final line of the scroll sent chills down Avigail’s spine:

“Before the sounding of the Great Shofar, let the message go forth. For one card shall awaken a watchman.”

Chapter 3: The Shofar and the Dream

That night, Avigail dreamed.

She stood on a mountain, wind howling around her. Before her, a sea of faces—friends, family, strangers—stood confused and blindfolded. In her hand was a stack of Rosh Hashanah cards, glowing with golden fire.

She handed one to a woman sobbing on her knees. The moment the card touched her hand, the blindfold fell, and light filled her eyes.

Then came a sound—deep, ancient, and heart-rattling. The blast of the shofar.

When Avigail awoke, she knew what she had to do.

She would design the cards from the scroll.

She would send them.

And she would call others to do the same.

Chapter 4: The Awakening

At first, it seemed simple. She and her friends painted cards with verses like:

> “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor.”— Luke 4:18

"Return to Me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord of hosts. — Malachi 3:7

They sent the cards across Israel, the U.S., Europe—anywhere they knew Messianic believers lived or longed for truth.

But then the letters started coming back.

Testimonies.

A grandfather in Tel Aviv reconciled with his estranged daughter after reading her card.

A Jewish woman in New York received a card with Psalm 27 and, weeping, gave her life to Yeshua during Rosh Hashanah.

A pastor in Haifa saw visions of the coming harvest and started a house of prayer.

All because of a card.

Chapter 5: The Counterfeit and the Crisis

But not all were pleased.

A dark organization known only as “The Silence” began stealing the cards, disrupting the mail, and hacking the website Avigail had created for free printable downloads.

One of their agents even warned her in person:

“You don’t know what you're awakening. Some gates are meant to stay closed.”

But Avigail pressed on. She remembered the words of the scroll:

“You shall not fear, for the Lord your God walks with you. As in the days of Jericho, so shall the walls fall.”— Joshua 1:9

So she made a decision: everyone would get access to printable Rosh Hashanah greeting cards—artful, prophetic, Scripture-rich, and free.

She uploaded the scroll's designs, prayers, and verses.

She even included prompts for repentance and blessings for the new year.

And she added one simple question to every card:

“Are you ready for the sound of the Great Shofar?”

Epilogue: The Last Card

The scroll’s prophecy came true sooner than anyone expected.

On the final night of Rosh Hashanah, as Avigail stood at the Mount of Olives, she received a call.

A boy in Ethiopia, orphaned, received one of her printable cards from a relief worker. After reading it, he dreamed of Yeshua calling his name. That boy later became a leader of an underground movement, bringing revival across Africa.

That was the final sign.

Because his card? It was the last one printed from the scroll’s design.

And as the sun rose the next morning, the shofar was sounded in Jerusalem.

Not by human hands.

But from the heavens.

The gates were closing.

But not before the cards did their work.
