25 – 28 May 2023
There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.
In the above, Ecclesiastes 1:11, Solomon is speaking things (words and matters), through diligently searching (shel) to find the LORD’s mind, he understood, which is the (first) state of the “former” (ri’shown) house. He says this understanding will become not remembered (zekrown), and will not be by those who come (shel) “after” (‘archarown), in these last days (by the latter house).
Friends, I again tell you these things you once knew, but, through the neglect and abandonment by those charged with keeping them (tereo), have been forgotten. You are the former and latter house of God’s people, journeyers predestined to arrive here, in the resurrection to life by remembrance (zekrown). This is your, our, identity in the LORD.
Jude 1
1 Jude [Judah], the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James [brethren with Jacob], to them that are sanctified [made and declared holy] by God the Father, and preserved [tereo – guarded, protected, and reserved unto this time] in Jesus Christ, and called:
2 Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.
3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that you should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only LORD God, and our LORD Jesus Christ.
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though you once knew this, how that the LORD, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt [the affliction like these last days], afterward destroyed them that believed not.
6 And the angels [messengers of God] which kept [tereo] not their first estate [which is to deliver the LORD’s message as received from His mouth], but left their own habitation, he has reserved [tereo] in everlasting chains under darkness [in their own ignorance] unto the judgment of the great day.
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrah [in flame and ruin], and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication [interaction with these same misleaders preaching and teaching their own message from their darkened minds], and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire [from the present mouth of God].
8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion [the LORD’s order, under His rule], and speak evil of dignities.
9 Yet Michael [who is like God, and now stands against these men] the archangel [the Chief messenger], when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses [the law of God these men have destroyed], durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said [as I say to them all], The LORD rebuke you.
10 But these speak evil of those things [the truth of these matters] which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain [who killed his brother because his {Abel’s} works were accepted by God and his weren’t], and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward [that comes with them, by their misleading, cursing God’s people into this hell], and perished in the gainsaying [opposition of God’s will] of Core.
12 These are spots in your feasts of charity [they are stains corrupting and confusing the clarity of this word given by God], when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds [from where understanding should come] they are without water, carried about of winds [of false doctrine]; trees whose fruit withers, without fruit, twice dead [in the former house and now in the latter], plucked up by the roots;
13 Raging waves of the sea [pride-filled men among the people at large], foaming out [from their mouths] their own shame; wandering stars [who can’t be trusted to show the way in the darkness], to whom is reserved [tereo] the blackness of darkness [ignorance] forever.
14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the LORD comes with ten thousands of his saints [I and the children the LORD has given me – as signs of the promised and expected end reached],
15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts [into delusion and insanity]; and their mouth speaking great swelling [pride filled] words, having men’s persons in admiration [and not admiring the LORD who bought them] because of advantage [the position in seats of power and control].
17 But, beloved, remember you the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our LORD Jesus Christ;
18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19 These be they who separate themselves [from Him, His truth, and thereby from His ONE BODY], sensual, having not the Spirit.
20 But you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
21 Keep [tereo – guard and protect] yourselves in the love of God [His charity, giving us this word He reserved with us, to be reveald at this time in these last days], looking for the mercy of our LORD Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
23 And others save with fear [telling them they are in danger of perishing if they remain with these men who are choosing to perish], pulling [harpazo] them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh [of these clouds without rain].
24 Now unto him [the Chief Overseer] that is able to keep [phulasso – watches over] you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
25 To the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
Solomon calls himself the “Preacher” of Ecclesiastes, from the Hebrew qoheleth, from the word qahal, meaning “to convoke:–assemble (selves) (together), gather (selves) (together).” He uses this appellation seven times, all in Ecclesiastes, the last coming in His conclusion, which he begins by telling us to “remember.”
Ecclesiastes 12
1 Remember [zakar] now your Creator in the days of your youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when you shall say, I have no pleasure [chephets] in them [the days when all acceptable words are abandoned and forgotten];
2 While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened [when understanding has left the church, state, and the people at large], nor the clouds return after the rain [when it has returned to heaven from where it was earlier given]:
3 In the day when the keepers [shamar – the obedient] of the house shall tremble [shel – waver in their work], and the strong men shall bow themselves [‘avath – have their understanding perverted], and the grinders [doing the LORD’s work among His people] cease because they are few, and those that look out [ra’ah – who are seers] of the windows [understanding: seeing, what is coming] be darkened [are blinded by ignorance],
4 And the doors shall be shut in the streets [the way into the LORD’s kingdom is shut], when the sound of the grinding [the voice of those doing His work] is low, and he shall rise up at [stand with] the voice of the bird [of those who departed, their first estate], and all the daughters of music [who should be repeating this word of God as received from those leading them in His song] shall be brought low;
5 Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high [the wicked sitting in seats of power], and fears shall be in the way [incited by those intentionally using it to manipulate and control those over which they have power], and the almond tree shall flourish [the first shoots of new life after a long winter], and the grasshopper shall be a burden [devouring the shoots], and desire [stimulating the LORD’s glory] shall fail: because man goes to his long home [in death – lacking awareness, ignorant, of death and therefore not desiring life], and the mourners [lamenting that of which they are ignorant] go about the streets:
6 Or ever the silver cord be loosed [that bind us to the LORD], or the golden bowl be broken [which the LORD fills with His blessings], or the pitcher [receiving the word given by God] be broken at the fountain [and cannot be given], or the wheel broken at the cistern [and the word can no longer be drawn from the place it is held in the Earth].
7 Then shall the dust [from where man was created] return to the Earth as it was: and the spirit [life in man] shall return unto God who gave it.
8 Vanity [hebel – emptiness] of vanities [hebel – emptiness], says the preacher; all is vanity [hebel – emptiness].
9 And moreover, because the preacher [qoheleth – calling all to assemble into life in the LORD’s ONE BODY] was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good [words to] heed, and [diligently] sought out [acceptable words and matters], and set in order many proverbs [having deep meaning hidden in similes].
10 The preacher [qoheleth] sought to find out acceptable words [chaphets – as in verse 1]: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.
11 The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies [for the edification of the ONE BODY], which are given from one shepherd [ra’ah – a different word than “seer,” but with intention similar].
12 And further, by these [the wise words of one shepherd], my son [the children the LORD has given me], be admonished [zahar – to gleam, be enlightened by caution]: of making [‘asha – manifesting the LORD’s understanding] many books [cepher] there is no end [qets]; and much study [‘ahag – only appearing here, meaning intense mental application] is a weariness [ygi’ah – only here, meaning laboring to grasp] of the flesh [mind without the LORD’s Spirit].
13 Let us hear the conclusion [cowph – the key word here] of the whole matter [dabar – these words]: [shama’ – by obedience] Fear God, and keep [shamar – obey] his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing [made so by forgetfulness and abandonment], whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
The word cowph only appears five times, and its given meaning is “a termination:–conclusion, end, hinder participle.” In it, the LORD refers us to its first appearance in 2 Chronicles 20:16.
2 Chronicles 20
15 And he said, Hearken you, all Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you king Jehoshaphat [of Jehovah’s judgment], Thus says the LORD unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.
16 Tomorrow go you down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz [at this precipice where you have risen with the LORD by/with His full understanding]; and you shall find them at the end [cowph] of the brook [nachal – {Jabbok} the same as in Genesis 32:23], before [paniym] the wilderness of Jeruel [this time of desolation when you are taught {yara’ – as in Jeru-Salem} by God with us].
17 You shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand you still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them: for the LORD will be with you.
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD, worshipping the LORD.
Joel 2
9 They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
10 The Earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
11 And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that execute his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?
12 Therefore also now, says the LORD, turn you even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:
13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repent him of the evil.
14 Who knows if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the LORD your God?
15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:
16 Gather the people [into MY OND BODY], sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.
17 Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare your people, O LORD, and give not your heritage to reproach, that the heathen [who don’t know the LORD] should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
18 Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his people.
19 Yea, the LORD will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send [shalach] you corn, and wine, and oil, and you shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen:
20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army [of darkness], and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part [cowph] toward the utmost [‘acharown] sea [this generation in these last days], and his stink [by which all sense that death is in these wicked men] shall come up, and his ill savor [the word they teach shall be understood to bring death] shall come up, because he [the wicked] has done great things [gadal – enlarged wickedness in the Earth].
21 Fear [yare’] not [the wicked], O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things [gadal – He will enlarge righteousness in the destruction of the wicked].
22 Be not afraid, you beasts of the field [doing the LORD’s work in the Earth]: for the pastures [the place the flock feeds] of the wilderness [that were desolate] do spring [forth new life], for the [good] tree bears her fruit, the [good] fig tree and the [good] vine do yield their strength [understanding the time and season of this new creation].
23 Be glad then, you children of Zion [in whose mind the LORD rules], and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he has given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain [His word from heaven], the former rain [his written word], and the latter rain [this word that gives understanding] in the first month [ri’shown – beginning the new creation and our passing over the words of death].
24 And [in this great harvest] the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with wine and oil.
25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army [the devouring army of darkness, that entered the void when you forgot and abandoned My word] which I sent among you [by the law of nature and natures God].
26 And you shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that has dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.
27 And you shall know that I am in the midst of IsRAEl [the whole Family of God], and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids [the bondwomen who Passover with us] in those days will I pour out my spirit.
30 And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the Earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 The sun [the old and fully corrupt church institution] shall be turned into darkness [shall be realized to be without any understanding], and the moon [all civil government] into blood [draining life from all the world], before the great [gadowl – as in verses 11 & 25 above, from gadal] and terrible [yare’ – feared and revered] day of the LORD come.
32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on [qara’ – out to] the name [the manifested identity and presence] of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD has said [‘amar – promised he would answer], and in the [elect] remnant whom the LORD shall call [qara’ – answer their calling out].
Micha 5
1 Now gather yourself in troops [gadad], O daughter of troops [guwd – Gad, who will now overcome those who before overcame them]: He [the LORD] has [with judgment] laid siege against us: they [wicked] shall smite the judge [the LORD unknown as He has comes to judge the Earth] of Israel with a rod [shebet – with their power, deceptions and lies, by which they rule] upon the cheek [the jawbone of the ass, with which He, as did Samson {like the Sun}, is smiting the invaders among us].
2 But you, Bethlehem Ephratah [this house of bread, receiving the whole {loaf} of God’s word here rightly divided; which is the second blessing {Ephraim} upon God’s people – the place where RAchEl {Joseph’s mother} is buried after giving birth to Benjamin – Ephratah also the origin of Joseph’s naming Ephraim {same place and people in Hebrew}, who spiritually is the name of God’s people in this first generation in the new creation], though you be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of [these last three words are from the word mamcak {from macak -therein the LORD referring us to malkuw and malkuwth: both from malak: melek}, here {mamcak is} untranslated, speaking of the everlasting King and His kingdom and “yet out of” what it ascends] you shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth [mowtsa’ah – Family descent] have been from of old [yowm – days], from everlasting [‘owlam – days everlasting – this can be none other than the perpetual son of God, the son of man {Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh} who comes in the order of Melchisedec].
3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travails has brought forth [her son of man in this generation]: then the [elect] remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
4 And he shall stand {as ONE BODY] and feed [in this good pasture] in the strength [understanding] of the LORD, in the majesty of the name [the manifested identity] of the LORD his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great [gadal – the LORD goodness enlarged] unto the ends [ending the old and corrupt and beginning the new] of the Earth.
5 And this [son of] man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian [communists] shall come into our land [as they have]: and when he shall tread in our palaces [as they do], then shall we raise against him seven [good] shepherds, and eight principal men [of the new creation].
6 And they shall waste the land of Assyria [the communists] with the sword [this word from the mouth of the LORD], and the land of Nimrod [rebellion] in the entrances thereof [into His everlasting kingdom]: thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian [the communist now in power], when he comes into our land, and when he treads within our borders [as they now do: Obama, his husband Michael, their idiot son Brandon, and their evil ilk].
7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a {morning – the light that has come as] dew [His word now appearing on the Earth] from the LORD, as the showers upon the grass, that tarries not for man [those not expecting it], nor waits for the sons of men [to obey and deliver it as received; He, therefore, alone here sends it as dew appearing].
8 And the [elect] remnant of Jacob shall be [become] among the Gentiles [those not knowing Him when He appears] in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest [those said to be the “upright” among this ignorant generation, who are without the LORD’s Spirit], as a young lion among the [scattered] flocks of sheep: who, if he go through [‘abar – in this Passover], both treads down and tears in pieces [the wicked who reject His correction and its salvation], and none can deliver.
9 Your hand shall be lifted up [Your work shall rise] upon your adversaries [tsar – the enemies causing the tribulation {tsarah}], and all your enemies shall be cut off [karath].
Here following are the Strong’s Hebrew Dictionary definitions of the words mentioned in verse 2 above:
Strong’s #4469: mamcak: from 4537 [macak]; mixture, i.e. (specifically) wine mixed (with water or spices):–drink-offering, mixed wine.
Strong’s #4437: malkuw: (Aramaic [Chaldee]) corresponding to 4438; dominion (abstractly or concretely):–kingdom, kingly, realm, reign.
Strong’s #4438: malkuwth: or malkuth {mal-kooth’}; or (in plural) malkuyah {mal-koo-yah’}; from 4427; a rule; concretely, a dominion:–empire, kingdom, realm, reign, royal.
Strong’s #4427: malak: a primitive root [the same as melek]; to reign; inceptively, to ascend the throne; causatively, to induct into royalty; hence (by implication) to take counsel.
Proverbs 23
9 Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of your words.
10 Remove not the old [‘owlam] landmark [gbuwl – limits, the self-evident truth of eternity]; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless [sowing your corrupt ideas, so it will grow into confusion, delusion, and insanity]:
11 For their redeemer is mighty; he shall plead their cause with you.
12 Apply your heart unto [this good] instruction, and your ears to the words of [God’s] knowledge.
13 Withhold not correction from the child: for if you beat him with the rod [this law of nature and nature’s God], he shall not die.
14 You shall beat him with the rod, and shall deliver his soul from hell.
15 My son, if your heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
16 Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when your lips speak right things.
17 Let not your heart envy sinners: but be you in the fear of the LORD all the day long.
18 For surely there is an end [‘achariyth – end of days]; and your expectation [this end promised and reached] shall not be cut off [karath – with the enemies that are].
19 Hear you, my son, and be wise, and guide your heart in the [right] way.
20 Be not among winebibbers [caba’ – filled with self: wise in their own conceit and pride]; among riotous [zalal – shaken in mind: the prodigal that never returns] eaters of flesh [producing nothing good; no good children]:
21 For the drunkard and the glutton [zala – who is never satisfied] shall come to poverty: and drowsiness [his sleeping mind] shall clothe a man with rags.
22 Hearken unto your father that begat you, and despise not your mother when she is old.
23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding [taught by your Father and Mother: the LORD and heavenly Jerusalem].
24 The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begets a wise child shall have joy of him.
25 Your father and your mother shall be glad, and she that bare you shall rejoice.
26 My son, give me your heart [your sound mind], and let your eyes observe [natsar – guard, protect, and obey] my ways.
27 For a whore [whose left the LORD to follow the ways of the wicked] is a deep ditch; and a strange woman [who doesn’t know the LORD] is a narrow pit.
28 She also lieth in wait as for a prey [to catch all in her ditch and pit], and increases the transgressors among men.
29 Who has woe? who has sorrow? who has contentions? who has babbling? who has wounds without cause? who has redness of eyes?
30 They that tarry long [‘achar – procrastinate: putting off doing what needs to be done] at the wine [yayin – what is effervescing before them]; they that go to seek [chaqar – that are never satisfied and tarry examining intimately] mixed wine [mamcak – this drink offering].
The word mamcak only appears one other time, in Isaiah 65:11, as the LORD speaks to those who’ve unknowingly found Him, many of whom are telling Him to stay away from them because they are holier than He. These are those who’ve chosen to tarry long (remain) among the dead and keep the abominations they worship, which have made them desolate.
Isaiah 65
11 But you are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering [mamcak] unto that number.
12 Therefore will I number you to the sword, and you shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called [qara’], you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not hear [shama’ – obey]; but did evil before my eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted [chaphets] not.
13 Therefore thus says the LORD God, Behold, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed:
14 Behold, my servants shall sing [repeate these word as received] for joy of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
15 And you shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the LORD God shall slay you, and call his servants by another name [which is Heavenly Jerusalem]:
16 That he who blesses himself in the Earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that swears in the Earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles [tsarah – tribulations] are forgotten, and because they are hid from my eyes.
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But be you glad and rejoice forever in that which I create: for, behold, I create [Heavenly] Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
Daniel 7
27 And the kingdom [malkuw] and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom [malkuw] under the whole heaven [shamayin – obeying what effervesces from the LORD’s presence], shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom [malkuw] is an everlasting [‘alam] kingdom [malkuw], and all dominions shall serve and obey [shma’ – the Aramaic form of shama’] him.
Jeremiah 10
6 Forasmuch as there is none like unto you, O LORD; you are great [gadowl], and your name [identity manifested] is great in might.
7 Who would not fear you, O King [melek] of nations? for to you [Yahh] does it appertain [ya’ah]: forasmuch as among all the [falsely so-called] wise men of the nations [among those who don’t know you], and in all their kingdoms [malkuwth], there is none like unto you.
8 But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.
9 Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of cunning men.
10 But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting [‘owlam] king [melek]: at his wrath the Earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation.
11 Thus shall you say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the Earth, even they shall perish from the Earth, and from under these heavens.
12 He has made the Earth by his power, he has established the world by his wisdom, and has stretched out the heavens by his discretion.
13 When he utters his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the Earth; he makes lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
14 Every man is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
15 They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
16 The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: The LORD of hosts is his name.
17 Gather up your wares out of the land, O inhabitant of the fortress.
18 For thus says the LORD, Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this once, and will distress them, that they may find it so.
19 Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous; but I said, Truly this is a grief, and I must bear it.
20 My tabernacle is spoiled, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.
21 For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.
22 Behold, the noise of the bruit is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons.
23 O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.
24 O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in your anger, lest you bring me to nothing.
25 Pour out your fury upon the heathen that know you not, and upon the families that call not on your name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.
Revelation 15
1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.
2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass [what was causing the agitation of God’s people is calmed] mingled with fire [this word from the mouth of the LORD]: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast [those without the Spirit of God: the dead that are the cause], and over his image [the confusion and delusions they worship], and over his mark [insanity], and over the number of his name [Strong’s Hebrews Dictionary number 666, the ashes of the Earth’s desolation, behind which the world’s false prophets hide their faces], stand [God’s people in victory] on the sea of glass, having the harps of God [playing the songs He has given us to be repeated, which brings the victory, our rest in His peace and security].
3 And they sing the song [repeating the former rain] of Moses the servant of God, and the song [with understanding as the latter rain] of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are your works, LORD God Almighty; just and true are your ways, you King of saints.
4 Who shall not fear you, O LORD, and glorify your name [presence manifested]? [We know from Jeremiah 10:7 above, this pertains the Yahh, Jehovah, who is wiser than all the wise men {nations} who don’t know Him, who’ve, by their darkened eyes, made all the kingdoms of the Earth ignorant], for you [LORD] only are holy: for all nations shall come and worship before you; for your judgments are made manifest [declaring Your presence].
5 And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened [for all the world to see and hear, as the former and latter rain are sent from there through the song of the Lamb and the saints who sing with him the same song]:
6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.
7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath [this word the evil and corrupt world rejects] of God, who lives forever and ever.
8 And the temple was filled with smoke [to rid it of the vermin infesting it] from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled [the vermin have fled their seats of power].
The words in Joel 2:23, speaking the word of God from heaven, rendered “former rain” and “latter rain,” are mowreh, only appearing one other place, Psalms 84:6; and malqowsh, meaning eloquence (used eight times: the number of new creation).
Numbers 24:7 He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters, and his [Jehovah’s] king [melek] shall be [ruwm – shall be raised] higher than Agag [Gog, the king of all the enemies of God throughout history], and his [Jehovah’s and His king’s] kingdom [malkuwth] shall be exalted [nasa’ – above all the kingdoms of the Earth].
Deuteronomy 11
11 But the land, whither you go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinks water of the rain of heaven:
12 A land which the LORD your God cares for: the eyes of the LORD your God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year [all seasons].
13 And it shall come to pass, if you shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14 That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain [yowreh] and the latter rain [malqowsh], that you may gather in your corn, and your wine, and your oil.
15 And I will send grass in your fields for your cattle, that you mayest eat and be full.
16 Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and you turn aside, and serve other gods [men’s creations], and worship them [and follow their misleading ways into desolation];
17 And then the LORD’s wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest you perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD gives you.
18 Therefore shall you lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand [in all your work], that they may be as frontlets between your eyes [in the forefront of your mind, seeing as the LORD sees].
19 And you shall teach them your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, when you lay down, and when you rise up.
20 And you shall write them upon the door posts of your house, and upon your gates:
21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD swore unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the Earth.
22 For if you shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;
23 Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
24 Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon [from the desolate place to where purity should be seen on high], from the river [these words], the river Euphrates [these fruitful words that raise Ephraim from the dead], even unto the uttermost [‘archarown – in these last days] sea [the people into whom these rivers flow] shall your coast [gbuwl – the set boundary that only you will Passover] be.
25 There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the LORD your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that you shall tread upon, as he has said unto you.
26 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
27 A blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:
28 And a curse, if you will not obey [shama’] the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods [men as idols you put in My place], which you have not known [vermin who crept in among you].
The next appearance of the word malqowsh is in Job 29:23, as he, representing God’s people hated by this evil generation, laments his former state, now lost. As we know, his “trouble” comes as the LORD allows Satan to work through his so-called friends, whom he continues to listen to and argues his own righteousness, and never sees the LORD working to draw these false accusers into the open {and in the fires refine Job). The end of His troubles comes as the LORD, speaking through Elihu, gives him an understanding of his experience, and after realizing he is thereby hearing the LORD’s voice, as from the whirlwind: His Almighty Spirit blowing away all other voices, he, at last, sees Him.
Job 29
21 Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.
22 After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.
23 And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain [malqowsh].
24 If I laughed on them, they believed it not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down.
25 I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one that comforts the mourners.
Job 30
1 But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock.
8 They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the Earth.
14 They came upon me as a wide breaking in of waters: in the desolation they rolled themselves upon me.
15 Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passes away as a cloud.
16 And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me.
Proverbs 16
9 A man’s heart devises his way: but the LORD directs his steps.
10 A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresses not in judgment.
11 A just weight and balance are the LORD’s: all the weights of the bag are his work.
12 It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.
13 Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him that speaks right.
14 The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.
15 In the light [understanding] of the king’s countenance [presence] is life; and his favor is as a cloud [from where understanding comes] of the latter rain [malqowsh].
16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!
17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keeps his way preserves his soul.
18 Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty [gbahh – arrogant, self-exaltated] spirit before a fall.
19 Better it is to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
20 He that handles a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he.
21 The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increases learning.
22 Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that has it: but the instruction of fools is folly.
23 The heart of the wise teaches his mouth, and adds learning to his lips.
Listening to (and following) the foolish, instead of the LORD, is spiritually described as whoredom, and those committing it as harlots. The next time malqowsh appears, in Jeremiah 3:3, the LORD defines His people by these appellatives, and says because of their unfaithfulness, the latter rain has been withheld (it is unable to come when you’re instead listening to foolishness). In verse 1, He says, “you have played the harlot with many lovers; yet return again to me, says the LORD,” and in verse 2, “you have polluted the land [‘erets – earth] with your whoredoms and with your wickedness.”
Jeremiah 3
3 Therefore the showers have been withheld, and there has been no latter rain [malqowsh]; and you had a whore’s forehead, you refused to be ashamed.
4 Will you not from [at] this time cry unto me, My father, you are the guide [friend] of my youth?
5 Will he reserve his anger forever? will he keep it to the end? Behold, you have spoken and done evil things as you could.
Revelation 17
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colors, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon [confusion] The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth.
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
Proverbs 7
24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O you children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
25 Let not your heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
26 For she has cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.
27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
Jeremiah 3
20 Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her husband, so have you dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, says the LORD.
21 A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God.
22 Return, you backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come unto you; for you are the LORD our God.
23 Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in the LORD our God is the salvation of Israel.
Revelation 17
12 And the ten horns [all the world’s governments] which you saw are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast [Babylon – Confusion that rules the world].
13 These have one mind [of confusion, turned delusion, and now worldwide insanity], and shall give their power and strength unto the beast [Babylon – Confusion that rules the world].
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is LORD of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15 And he says unto me, The waters [the sea] which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16 And the ten horns [all the civil governments of the world] which you saw upon the beast, these shall hate the whore [God’s people, as Job], and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17 For God has put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast [to Babylon – the confusion that rules the world], until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18 And the woman [God’s unfaithful people] which you saw is that great city [also become ruled by the same worldly confusion: Babylon], which [Babylon: confusion] reigns over the kings [church and state] of the Earth.
Acts 7
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets [in Amos 5:25 thru 27 when judgment runs down from heaven as water], O you house of Israel, have you offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?
43 Yea, you took up the tabernacle of Moloch [king, from malak – Obama, and his trans husband, the trans cult to which you offered your children – in their fires they create to normalize their repulsive perversion], and the star of your god Remphan [who led you into death], figures which you made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon [beyond confusion, into delusion, and now mass insanity].
Amos 5
18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness [mass ignorance], and not light [understanding].
19 As if a man did flee from a lion [the wicked roaring], and a bear met him; or went into the house [of his idols], and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness [as now when ignorance and insanity rule the world], and not light [without understanding]? even very dark, and no brightness in it [because they reject the light and hide themselves from it]?
21 I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell [be perceived] in your solemn assemblies.
22 Though you offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
23 Take you away from me the noise of your songs [you sing to your idols you call by My name]; for I will not hear the melody of your viols.
24 But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
25 Have you offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
26 But you have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which you made to [justify] yourselves.
27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus [where the LORD’s work is silenced and His people are drunken and in tears], says the LORD, whose name [identity] is The God of hosts [a man of war].
Jeremiah 5
21 Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:
22 Fear you not me? says the LORD: will you not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound [limit] of the sea [all humanity] by a perpetual [‘ owlam] decree [choq – declaring this appointed time], that it cannot pass it [‘abar – Passover]: and though the waves [the pride of men] thereof toss themselves [ga’ash – to violently agitate the sea], yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it [‘abar – Passover]?
23 But this people has a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted and gone [halak – walked away from the LORD].
24 Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, that gives rain, both the former [yowreh] and the latter [malqowsh], in his season: he reserves unto us [for] the appointed weeks [sevened – for our spiritual perfection] of the harvest.
25 Your iniquities [following wicked men into wickedness] have turned away these things, and your sins have withheld good things from you.
26 For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that sets snares; they set a trap, they catch men.
27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their [corrupt] houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great [gadal], and waxen rich.
28 They are waxen fat, they shine [as false prophets claiming they have understanding]: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
29 Shall I not visit [paqad – shall I not come as the Chief Overseer of the Earth, to set these things right] for these things? says the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
30 A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land [‘erets – the Earth];
31 The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means [deceit]; and my people love to have it so: and what will you do in the end thereof [‘achariyth – in these last days]?
Hosea 6
1 Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he has torn, and he will heal us; he has smitten, and he will bind us up.
2 After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in [by] his sight.
3 Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning [the light of this new day]; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter [malqowsh] and former rain [yowreh] unto the Earth.
4 O Ephraim [My people at large in this generation], what shall I do unto you [more than I have done]? O Judah [My elect remnant], what shall I do unto you [more than I have done]? for your goodness is as a morning cloud [this understanding of the new day], and as the early dew [when My word has appeared on the Earth] it goes away [halak – that you have walked away from].
5 Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and your judgments are as the light [understanding] that goes forth [yatsa’ – from Me to lead you into life].
6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7 But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
Zechariah 10
1 Ask you of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain [malqowsh]; so the LORD shall make bright clouds [full of understanding], and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field [new life on Earth on this third day of the new creation].
2 For the idols have spoken vanity [worthless thing they falsely claim they’ve seen], and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain [with worthless words]: therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled, because there was no shepherd [ra’ah – leading by seeing as the LORD sees].
3 My anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats [the devils misleading the flock]: for the LORD of hosts has visited [paqad – as the Chief Overseer of the Earth] his flock the house of Judah [His elect remnant], and has made them as his goodly horse in the battle.
4 Out of him came forth the corner [turning His people at large to Him], out of him the nail [in which they can trust], out of him the battle bow [on which he fires Ephraim, the arrows in His quiver], out of him every [good] leader together.
5 And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies in the mire [in their own clouded waters] of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because the LORD is with them, and the [wicked] riders on horses [who come against Him] shall be confounded.
6 And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph [Ephraim], and I will bring them again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the LORD their God, and will hear them.
7 And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine: yea, their children shall see it, and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in the LORD.
8 I will hiss [draw their attention to the LORD] for them, and gather them [into His ONE BODY]; for I have redeemed them: and they shall increase as they have increased.
9 And I will sow [as good seed] them among the people: and they shall remember [zakar – recognize] me in far countries [merchaq – as the one the LORD, at this appointed time has declared His son, by His decree]; and they shall live with their children, and turn again [to the LORD, Yahh to whom it pertains].
Psalms 84
1 How amiable are your tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
2 My soul longs, yea, even faints for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh [of My ONE BODY] cries out for the living God.
3 Yea, the sparrow has found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even your altars, O LORD of hosts, my King [Melek], and my God.
4 Blessed are they that dwell in your house: they will be still [the sea calmed] praising you. Selah.
5 Blessed is the man whose strength [understanding] is in you; in whose heart are the ways of them.
6 Who passing through the valley of Baca [weeping] make it a well; the rain [mowreh] also filled the pools.
7 They go from strength [understanding] to strength, every one of them [when they understand] in Zion appears [ra’ah – sees] before [the presence of] God.
8 O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.
9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of your anointed.
10 For a day in your courts [of your judgment] is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 For the LORD God is a sun [the brightest among the stars] and shield: the LORD will give grace [this gift of His treasures] and [by this reveal His] glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusts in you.
