It is one of the clear commandments given by God to Moses for the children of Israel to have themselves counted among the people of Israel annually by giving a piece of silver and to generate the necessary expenses for the sanctuary and the performance of the festivals with the entire financial expenditure.
The half-shekel payment is therefore the actual "temple tax" given by God to the children of Israel.
The payment is intended to bring salvation to your soul.
The half-Shekel in the Torah
Read here the original text from the Book of Exodus, chapter 30, verses 13-16:
"This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of the LORD.
Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD.
The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.
And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls."

This commandment was given to avoid the direct counting of the Israelites, so that the counting of the Israelites can take place through the amount of coins collected. (Exodus 30:12)
​
Furthermore, it is clearly stated here:
Pay only one TempleCoin and create atonement / salvation for your soul!
The annual census
The annual census of the Israelites marks the beginning of the annual festivals. It takes the form of a collection of silver Temple coins, which every Israelite, rich or poor, aged 20 or over, is required to pay on the first day of Adar.
​
From the 1st of Adar, every Israelite has three weeks to pay their annual tax, but payments are also accepted throughout the year.
​
Even though the commandment explicitly applies only to male Israelites, TempleCoin also accepts voluntary contributions from the daughters of Israel.
​
The coin will be delivered by us to the Temple Treasury in Israel, so that the collection and counting are in different hands.
Of course, you can also send your coin to the Temple Treasury yourself, but if you order through TempleCoin, the coin will also arrive safely.
​
The Sanhedrin Initiative in Israel is currently being used by us to form the official Temple Treasury, so that all the requirements for a functioning 12-tribe kingdom of Jerusalem and the final construction of the temple can be fulfilled.
​
The coins collected are not only used to count the current number of Israelites, but also to generate the necessary expenses for the temple and the preparations for the three major annual festivals of Passover, Shavuot, and Sukkot.
​
Additional orders can be placed to redeem other Israelites who have not heard about the concrete possibility of keeping this commandment or who do not yet have access to it.
​
Share the reference to this commandment of counting with all the Israelites you know, so that our people may awaken in abundance and gather according to the biblical promises.

Collection of the 12 tribes!
Revelation 14:1: And I looked, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000, having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.
The nation of Ephraim is seeking 12 individuals with at least 12,000 members in their congregation to gather all the tribes of Israel in the written manner:
Jethro speaks to Moses in Exodus 18:21 and 22: "But you shall choose for yourself from among all the people able men, who fear God, faithful men who hate unjust gain, and appoint them over them: captains of thousands, captains of hundreds, captains of fifties, and captains of tens, to judge the people at all times."
Also in Revelation 7:4-8 we read about the 144,000 sealed in the foreheads, for 12,000 people from each of the 12 tribes of the sons of Israel.
So if you have 12,000 people in your church and you count yourselves among the tribes of Israel, you and your church can position yourself among the 144,000 recorded who will be present at the end of days on Mount Zion and at the wedding supper of the Lamb!
You can also design your own TempleCoin directly here, and we will deliver it to the Levitical Temple Treasury for the counting of the tribes during the census, so that your entire community can, in a sense, carry out the commandment of the count.

Many Jews tried to keep this mitzvot even after
they were expelled from the land.
​
In recent years, Reuven Prager, who unfortunately passed away last year, did great service to implement this mitzvot for the Jewish community.
Over 200,000 coins have already been collected by him.
After the coins get the status Hekdesh (sanctified for holy use), they may no longer be used for profane purposes.
​
Today, our Silver TempleCoin is able to enable nations to implement this important commandment.
Half-shekels from the time of the 2nd temple period are regularly found.
The Nation of Ephraim, founded in Jerusalem in 2005, already concluded the biblically prophesied covenant between Ephraim and Judah on May 23, 2023. The Silver TempleCoin, which according to the Sanhedrin was supposed to become the world's reserve currency in 2020, has been accepted as an official payment by the Sanhedrin initiative based in Israel since September 11, 2022, and is currently accepted and counted by the affiliated TempleTreasury, headed by the Levite Moshe Yosef Cohen, as a half-shekel payment from the Israelites.
The nation of Ephraim is thus making the payment commandment from Exodus 30 directly available to the nations in cooperation with TempleCoin.org, the Sanhedrin Initiative, and TempleTreasury.
