The Rapture

The word “rapture” is derived from the Middle French rapture, which is from the Medieval Latin raptura (“seizure, kidnapping”), which is derived from the Latin raptus (“a carrying off”). The Koine Greek of 1 Thessalonians 4:17 uses the verb form ἁρπαγησόμεθα (harpagēsometha), which means “we shall be caught up” or “taken away.” The dictionary form of this Greek verb is harpazō (ἁρπάζω). This use is also seen in such texts as Acts 8:39, 2 Corinthians 12:2–4, and Revelation 12:5.
… The Latin Vulgate translates the Greek ἁρπαγησόμεθα as rapiemur[15] meaning “we are caught up” or “we are taken away” from the Latin verb rapio meaning “to catch up” or “take away.” (Wikipedia)
With this in mind, I will use another term for this event. Many use the word “rapture,” however, I usually say “catching away event” or “harvest.” Terms and symbols of the harvest was given to us by Yeshua.

There is going to be two kinds of harvests: the harvest of the righteous and the harvest of the unrighteous:

The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. Therefore just as the weeds are gathered up and burned with fire, so shall it be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks and those who practice lawlessness. They will throw them into the fiery furnace; in that place will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear!
(Matthew 13:39-43 TLV)

So we can see now there will be two kinds of catching away events - the catching away or gathering of the wicked and the catching away or gathering of the righteous:

Then I looked, and behold, there was a white cloud—and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man. He had a golden crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand. Then another angel came out of the Temple, crying out with a loud voice to the One seated on the cloud, “Put in your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the harvest of the earth is fully ripe.” So the One seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested. Then another angel came out of the Temple in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle. Then another angel—the one who has authority over fire—came out from the altar; and he called out with a loud voice to the one holding the sharp sickle, saying, “Put in your sickle and gather the grape clusters from the vineyard of the earth, because her grapes are ripe.” So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and gathered the clusters from the vineyard of the earth and threw them into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
(Revelation 14:14-19 TLV)

So we can see that the Rapture or catching away event is not just a single event but also can be for wicked people as well. There will be a harvest of the righteous and a harvest of the wicked. There will be a catching away of the righteous, and there will be a catching away of the wicked. Therefore, from this perspective we can say that the rapture is not one event but rather an occurrence that will be common in the future.

Now let’s look at how many harvest seasons there are in Israel.
Ancient Israel was an agricultural country, and their religious calendar was centered around the harvest seasons. God appointed these seasons and times in the beginning to connect all the Biblical appointed times with the beginning of the different harvests.

There are different translations of the Hebrew word “moadim”:
My appointed feasts (A Faithful Version)
My set feasts (American Standard Version)
My special festivals (Easy-to-Read Version)
Sacred assemblies (International Standard Version)
My appointed seasons (Jewish Publication Society Old Testament)
My feasts (King James Version)
My appointed times (Literal Standard Version)

Part of Speech: noun masculine

So, from the meaning of the word moed/moadim, we can now understand that God had prophetically appointed His time in His calendar to set apart certain events in the history of mankind. And many of them are connected to seasons of harvest.
It is commonly accepted by the Christian community that Yeshua died during the moed or set apart time of Passover and was resurrected during the moed of First Fruits.

Here we have a precedent that the First Fruits is the feast of Resurrection or the beginning of the harvest of the barley.
Paul connected the time of the Resurrection with the time of the catching away:

Now we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about those who are asleep, so that you may not grieve like the rest who have no hope. For if we believe that Yeshua died and rose again, so with Him God will also bring those who have fallen asleep in Yeshua. For this we tell you, by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord shall in no way precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself shall come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the blast of God’s shofar, and the dead in Messiah shall rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left behind, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air—and so we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one another with these words.
(1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 TLV)

It is interesting to note that many read this verse and think that:

a) The resurrection of the righteous is only a one-time event.
b) The resurrection and the catching away will happen at the same time.
c) There will be only one blast of the shofar (trumpet of God).

Is this true?

God gave us three main moedim, which are connected to the harvest seasons:
Passover/ First Fruits of the barley
Shavuot/ First Fruits of the wheat
Trumpet/ Yom Kippur/ Sukkot – the feast of the harvest of the fruits, olives, and grapes
Yeshua already fulfilled the first fruits of the barley. Other saints were resurrected along with Him, but it is inconclusive if they were resurrected in new glorified bodies or if they just came back to life in their old bodies.

Yeshua started the era of the first resurrection. Each of the harvests of the first resurrection will happen during His appointed times, which are His moedim.
After First Fruits, the Israelites counted fifty days until Shavuot. Each day from First Fruits until Shavuot, they brought an omer of barley to the Temple. An omer is a measure of grain.
In traditional Jewish standards of measurement, the omer was equivalent to the capacity of 43.2 eggs, or what is also known as one-tenth of an ephah (three seahs).[5] In dry weight, the omer weighed between 1.560 kg. to 1.770 kg., being the quantity of flour required to separate therefrom the dough offering. (Wikipedia)
The harvest of the barley is the harvest of the Bride: souls of people from the first disciples and till our days. We live right now during the generation of the 50th omer. The count began when Yeshua was resurrected from the dead (around 29-31 AD). Each omer is 40 years. A generation is 40 years. 40 years (omer) x 50 = 2000. Now count 29-31 AD + 2000 = 2029-2031 years. I do not give you any date settings. It is not a date of the rapture. It is a date of the times and seasons. We are living during the Last Omer of the Barley.
The Last Omer of the Barley was brought at the same time as the First Omer of the Wheat during Shavuot:

“Then you are to count from the morrow after the Shabbat, from the day that you brought the omer of the wave offering[of barley], seven complete Shabbatot. Until the morrow after the seventh Shabbat you are to count fifty days, and then present a new grain offering[of wheat] to Adonai. You are to bring out of your houses two loaves of [wheat]bread for a wave offering, made of two tenths of an ephah of fine flour. They are to be baked with hametz as firstfruits to Adonai. (Lev. 23:15-17 TLV)

On the day of Shavuot, a priest would bring the 50th omer of the barley offering (signaling the end of the barley harvest) and the first fruit offering of the wheat. As we remember, the first fruits of the barley is unleavened bread, but the first fruit of the wheat harvest is leavened. It is an offering of two loaves. Some believe that it represents the Jews and Gentiles during the time of the tribulation. Barley is different from wheat; barley husk is softer and does not require beating on the threshing floor, unlike wheat, which has a hard husk.

https://www.wordsense.eu/tribulum/

The barley and wheat harvests overlap before the moed of Shavuot.

Barley is a symbol of the harvest of the Bride, and wheat represents the harvest of the saved nations. As I said before, Shavuot is the last omer of the barley and the first omer of the wheat. The feast of any first fruit of a season is connected to the resurrection of the dead. Therefore, we can see that the feast of Shavuot is the prophetic season for the resurrection of the dead, especially the Bride (which is represented by the barley harvest), and it will also include some of the wheat harvest (the harvest that represents the saved nations). It is possible that there will be some saints who may not see death and will be caught away during this time. But the main numbers of those who are going to be taken to heaven at this time are resurrected dead saints - the Bride and saved people. Because the majority of dead saints in heaven are of the unborn (the people who died before they were born), I call this part of the resurrection season the Resurrection of the Unborn. Those believers who are alive and not ready yet will still be on the earth to become martyrs during the Great Tribulation. They will be resurrected during another season of the first fruits, during or after the Great Tribulation before the Millennial Kingdom.

Keep in mind that I am talking right now about resurrection, which is a harvest of people. Who is going to be taken in the catching away without seeing death during the prophetic fulfillment of the set-apart day of Shavuot is inconclusive. It is a mystery.

Genesis records the first known instance of someone being caught away:

Another precedent is the prophet Elijah:

Now we see in the Bible there are two prototypes of catching away, prophetically showing that a similar event will happen in the future. And as we see, there were Enoch, Methuselah and Noah, they are all prophetically connected to each other. Enoch was the father of Methuselah, and Methuselah was the grandfather of Noah.
Noah was 600 years old after the flood.

Just before the flood Methuselah died.

Mathuselah was (969 – 600 =) 369 years old when Noah was born.

Enoch would be (369+65=) 434 years old when Noach was born.
But Enoch was already in heaven:

Here we see the parallel to the end times:

A) Enoch the righteous man – those whom God chose to be in heaven during the time of Judgment.
B) Methuselah the righteous man– who lived before the judgment, but died after the catching away of Enoch and just before the judgment of the flood.
C) Noah, the righteous man – who lived through judgment on the earth and became a righteous remnant, from him God repopulated the earth after the judgment of the flood.

Now let’s look at the story of Elijah:

There were two righteous prophets who were chosen by God: Elijah and Elisha. One was taken away and the other was left behind. Who was caught away? Elijah, who was chosen to be in heaven for certain reasons. Who was left behind and became a part of the righteous remnant of Israel on the earth? Elisha, who continued God’s work and ministered to the people of God with the double power of the Holy Spirit after Elijah was taken away.

These are patterns for us of what is going to happen on the earth during the time of judgment, the Great Tribulation. Some will be taken by God in heaven, some will be left on the earth as the righteous remnant with specific ministries and destinies to survive and repopulate the earth after the tribulation, like Noah did. And also this righteous remnant will minister during the tribulation in the double power of the Holy Spirit like Elisha did.
On the contrary, many churches teach that only bad people will be left behind and that all believers will be taken to heaven before the tribulation. Such teaching is not biblical. If God will take away all righteous people on the earth, who is going to repopulate the earth during the millennium Kingdom? The unrighteous people will not enter into His Kingdom. And to be honest, many churches THINK they have a ticket to heaven, but unfortunately many of them are actually saved in the last moments of their lives, before their death by the grace of God, and only those who truly repent of their sins. Therefore, many of them are in the same boat as unbelievers, especially those who belong to mainstream Christianity. Not many believers are walking the way of God.
One example is contraceptive pills. How many women who call themselves Christians are taking these pills? In their ignorance many unknownly become murderers of the unborn. And if they don’t repent and don't turn away from their unrighteous ways, God will not take them in the Rapture, but will allow them to become martyrs, to go through the tribulation, to be killed. Sadly our generation is a generation of murderers, the generation of Cain, even among believers.

Many believers who believe that the Rapture will happen during His second coming cite this Scripture passage as proof:

Now we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about those who are asleep, so that you may not grieve like the rest who have no hope. For if we believe that Yeshua died and rose again, so with Him God will also bring those who have fallen asleep in Yeshua. For this we tell you, by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord shall in no way precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself shall come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the blast of God’s shofar, and the dead in Messiah shall rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left behind, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air—and so we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore encourage one another with these words.(1Th. 4:13-18 TLV)

The problem with such statements is that the sound of the Shofar or trumpets will happen several times during the tribulation. It is common to sound the shofar during appointed times. Also from my visions I learned that every appearance of the Son of God in heaven among the angels and saints is accompanied with the sound of a shofar/trumpet.

Read also Revelation 8:7, 8:8, 8:10, 8:12, 9:1, 9:13, 11:15
Below is a link about the times when the Jews would blow the shofar:
12 Instances of Shofar-Blowing in Jewish History - High Holidays (chabad.org)

First, as I said before, Yeshua mentioned two major events: the resurrection of the righteous and the resurrection of the wicked.

The resurrection of judgment will happen during the judgment of the White Throne AFTER the Millennium Kingdom on the earth and BEFORE the creation of the New Heavens and New Earth.

Then I saw a great white throne, and the One seated on it. The earth and heaven fled from His presence, but no place was found for them. And I saw the dead—the great and the small—standing before the throne. The books were opened, and another book was opened—the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to what was written in the books, according to their deeds. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Sheol gave up the dead in them. Then they were each judged, each one of them, according to their deeds.
(Revelation 20:11-13 TLV)

Not one righteous person will be a part of this event. This is only for those who ended up in hell.
But how about righteous people? Will there be only one resurrection event for them? Or will there be several events, which are part of the age of the First Resurrection? Is there any precedent that there is more than one resurrection of the righteous in the Bible?
When we read the book of Revelation, in general it describes events in heaven and on the earth, the time of the Tribulation. During this time we can read about at least two events of resurrection.
The event of the death and resurrection of the two witnesses:

When they have finished their testimony, the beast that rises from the abyss will make war on them, and overcome them and kill them. And their corpses will lie in the open street of the great city that figuratively is called Sodom and Egypt—where also their Lord was crucified. Some from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will look at their corpses for three and a half days, not allowing them to be placed into a grave. Those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them. They will celebrate and send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth. But after the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood up on their feet; and great fear fell on those who were watching them. Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” And they went up to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies watched them. (Revelation 11:7-12 TLV)

These two witnesses not only were resurrected, but after their resurrection were also taken to heaven in their new glorified bodies. This event will happen between the sixth and seventh trumpets during the tribulation.
Another event will involve the saints who will die during the tribulation:

It is interesting that this post-tribulation resurrection does not mention other saints who died before the tribulation. And also there is no mention in this book about the saints who are going to be the remnant who survive the tribulation and those who are going to be born during the Millennial Kingdom.
Now we have already established the precedent that during the tribulation and after there will be at least two resurrections of the saints.
So what about the pre-tribulation resurrection? Is it true or not? I believe that there will also be a pre-tribulation resurrection with great numbers of saints who are going to be resurrected from the dead. I believe that this event will be a trigger for the rest of the events in heaven and on the earth.
As I said before, this resurrection will be the resurrection of the barley or the Bride. We could also call this event the resurrection of the unborn because the main number of this group of saints will be unborn souls.
We can see that this group is in heaven in Revelation chapter 7:

After these things I looked, and behold, a vast multitude that no one could count—from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues—was standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” And all the angels were standing around the throne, along with the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying, “Amen, blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might belong to our God forever and ever. Amen!” Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, “Who are these dressed in white robes, and where have they come from?” I said to him, “Sir, you know.” Then he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason, they are before the throne of God, and they serve Him day and night in His Temple. The One seated on the throne will shelter them. They shall never again go hungry, nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not beat down on them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb in the midst of the throne shall shepherd them and guide them to springs of living water, and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.” (Rev 7:9-17 TLV)

This event will happen between the 6th and 7th seal of Revelation. Again, I don’t know if this is a separate event from the pre-trib rapture or if it will be part of the resurrection of the unborn/the Bride.
Some scholars think that the event of the pre-trib rapture is hidden in Revelation chapter 4:

It is interesting that the pre-trib resurrection of the Bride will be a mostly hidden event, because most of those who will be taken will be the dead saints. Not many of those who are alive will be part of this event; therefore, it may not be so noticeable for the living on the earth. There will not be millions of Christians disappearing from the earth. Not from the mainstream churches. Maybe underground church saints will be affected by this disappearance, but the world in general will not notice. Maybe some graves will be opened. But many of the unborn do not have graves at all. And with mass misinformation there will be a worldwide coverup.
So what is interesting about this verse? The apostle John is a prototype of the Bride. During his life on the earth, he was close to Yeshua. Yeshua entrusted His mother, Mary (who is a prototype of the righteous remnant of Israel), to him. The Bride was appointed to give a cover for the remnant of Israel, to take care of her. There are many prophetic parallels in the life of John and the Bride.
So John was called up by the trumpet of God to enter heaven: “Come up here.” The same phrase was used by God during the resurrection of the two witnesses:

What do we have so far?

1) During Yeshua’s death and resurrection some saints were resurrected from their graves. (Mat. 27:51-53)- Beginning of the Barley Harvest, beginning of the counting of the 50 Omers - 2000 years
2) There is a hidden clue about the pre-trib resurrection (Rev. 4:1-2) – the end of the Barley Harvest, hidden harvest.
3) There are saints in heaven from the Great Tribulation between 6th and 7th seal (Rev. 7:9-17) Beginning of the wheat harvest
4) Mid-trib Resurrection of the Two witnesses (Rev. 11:11-12) – beginning of the Olive harvest ???
5) Post-trib Resurrection of tribulation saints (Rev. 20:11-13) – End of the wheat harvest

Who is going to live on the earth during the Millennium Kingdom?

Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The One riding on it is called Faithful and True, and He judges and makes war in righteousness. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and many royal crowns are on His head. He has a name written that no one knows except Himself. He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which He is called is “the Word of God.” And the armies of heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses. (Revelation 19:11-14 TLV)

“But immediately after the trouble of those days, ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light and the stars will fall from heaven and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’ Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the land will mourn, and they will see ‘the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven’ with power and great glory. He will send out His angels with a great shofar, and they will gather together His chosen from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” (Matthew 24:29-31 TLV)

“Now when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them from one another, just as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. And He will put the sheep on His right, but the goats on His left. Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger and you invited Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ “Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You? Or thirsty and give You something to drink? And when did we see You a stranger and invite You in? Or naked and clothe You? When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ “And answering, the King will say to them, ‘Amen, I tell you, whatever you did to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ Then He will also say to those on the left, ‘Go away from Me, you cursed ones, into the everlasting fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me nothing to drink; I was a stranger and you did not invite Me in; naked and you did not clothe Me; sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’ “Then they too will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not care for You?’ Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Amen, I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for Me.’ These shall go off to everlasting punishment, but the righteous into everlasting life.”(Matthew 25:31-46 TLV)

Then I saw thrones, and people sat upon them—those to whom authority to judge was given. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Yeshua and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image, nor had they received his mark on their forehead or on their hand. And they came to life and reigned with the Messiah for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection. (Revelation 20:4-5 TLV)

And another angel, a third one, followed them, saying in a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he shall also drink the wine of God’s fury, poured full strength into the cup of His wrath. And he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone before the holy angels and before the Lamb. The smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. Those who worship the beast and its image and those who receive the mark of his name have no rest day or night.” (Revelation 14:9-11 TLV)

According to the Scriptures above, when Yeshua comes to the earth, there will be three groups of people:

● The resurrected saints, who will come to the earth from heaven with Yeshua. Some of them will also be resurrected tribulation saints. (Rev.19:14, 1Thess.4:13-18) (Barley and wheat harvest saints)
● The chosen remnant will be righteous people from different nations who will be gathered at the judgment seat on the earth. They will enter into the Millennial kingdom on the earth, but they will not have glorified bodies yet. When their lives on the earth will be over, they will enter into the heavenly Kingdom with transformed glorified bodies without seeing death (olive harvest saints).
● The people from other nations who are not righteous will be judged to sheol (hell). They will not be part of the Millennial kingdom and will be resurrected only in the second resurrection (grape harvest Rev. 14:17-20, Rev. 20: 11-15).

What does the Bible say about the people who will be on the earth during the Millennial kingdom?

This verse tells us that by the end of the Millennial kingdom, there will be people on the earth who will have a fallen nature. This only can happen if they are born after the second coming of Yeshua from people who were not resurrected, but entered into His kingdom on the earth. They will be the Millennial kingdom descendants of the righteous remnants of the nations.

For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered or come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I am creating. For behold, I am creating Jerusalem for rejoicing, and her people for joy. Then I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and be glad in My people. No longer will the voice of weeping or the voice of crying be heard in her. No longer will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not fill out his days. For the youth will die at a hundred years, But one who misses the mark of a hundred must be accursed. They will build houses and inhabit them. They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit. They will not build and another inhabit, nor plant and another eat. For like the days of a tree, so will be the days of My people, and My chosen ones will long enjoy the work of their hands. They will not labor in vain nor bear children for calamity. For they are the offspring of those blessed by Adonai, as well as descendants with them. And it will come to pass that before they call, I will answer, and while they are still speaking, I will hear. The wolf and the lamb will feed together. The lion will eat straw like the ox, but dust will be the serpent’s food. They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain,” says Adonai. (Isaiah 65:17-25 TLV)

From the Scripture above we can see that during the Millennial kingdom:
● People will live long lives: For like the days of a tree, so will be the days of My people (Isaiah 65:22), as many as several hundred years. Some trees can live a thousand years in a good environment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_trees
● A 100-year-old person will be treated as a youth in the Millennial kingdom (Isaiah 65:20).
● A person who dies physically during the Millennial kingdom, especially before turning 100 years old, will be called accursed (Isaiah 65:20).
What will happen to all the righteous saints who live during the Millennial kingdom? How will they enter into the heavenly Kingdom and join the other saints with glorified bodies?
According to the Scripture above, natural death will be something out of ordinary during these days. And those who will die will be called accursed. It is most likely that righteous saints will not die, but will be transformed by the resurrection power of Yeshua, the King of kings, on an individual basis. In my visions, I saw the future of the Millennial kingdom. I saw how many saints by the end of the Millennial kingdom in the end days were individually gathered by the angels of God in chariots and traveled to the earthly Jerusalem to meet Yeshua in the temple. There I saw them being transformed by His power and taken to the heavenly New Jerusalem without seeing death. But those who did not believe God at that time and chose to follow Satan were left behind to be judged (Rev. 20:7-9).

For this we tell you, by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord shall in no way precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself shall come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the blast of God’s shofar, and the dead in Messiah shall rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left behind, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air—and so we shall always be with the Lord. (1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 TLV)

This verse can also apply to the Millennial saints.

● The Millennial saints will not precede those saints who die before them. Those who died before and during the Great Tribulation will arise from dead first.
● Those who are living on the earth during the Millennial kingdom, those who were left behind to fulfill certain purposes on the earth after the tribulation, will be transformed in the clouds, in the air, by the resurrection power of Yeshua to meet the Lord in the heavenly Jerusalem.
● And because there will still be sounds of the trumpets by archangels in heaven, it is more likely that such an event will happen during the feast of Sukkot, which will be required to attend on the earth during the Millennial kingdom (Zech. 14:16-18).

The Olive harvest represents the Millennial harvest of the saints, because the olives are harvested individually as they ripen on the trees on different days. They are handpicked by the laborers. The ripe ones are harvested and the unripe ones stay behind until they are ready to pick. Or they are picked at different times according to their purpose of use.

In conclusion, the rapture will not be a one-day event but a series of events that will happen during the appointed times of the different prophetic harvest seasons: the harvest of the barley (the Bride), the harvest of the wheat (saved nations), the harvest of the grapes (the wicked), and the harvest of the olives (Millennial kingdom saints).
