31 October – 3 November 2023
The Son of man indeed goes, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.
In the above, Mark 14:21, the LORD says the son of man “goes” (hupage) as it is written of him, which refers to the “betrayal” (paradidomi). In the following verses, speaking in this context, he tells His students the bread He gives them is His body (the entire work in His exposition: the complete dispensation), and the drink He gives them is His blood (His life poured out into them).
The betrayal is this body of work surrendered into the hands of those in power (Judas: Judah, representing the leaders, religious and civil governments, of God’s people), where the life in His body (of work) is ended. He then speaks of this life, as flowing through the vine into the good fruit, not occurring again until he drinks from it (as the first fruit, the husbandman who labors and is the first partaker of this understanding) here in the kingdom of God.
2 Timothy 2
3 You therefore [son of man] endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ [Jehovah’s Salvation in the flesh].
4 No man that wars entangles himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman [he that works in the earth] that labors must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the LORD give you [first] understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead [the first- fruit, now, of the resurrection of the dead] according to my gospel:
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound [nor can any man shut what the LORD has now opened].
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
13 If we believe not [He is resurrected in me], yet he abides faithful [in me]: he cannot deny himself. [I tell you the truth, I confess without fear, Jehovah’s Salvation, Jesus, is alive from the dead, Christ, in my flesh!]
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the LORD that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Mark 14
17 And in the evening [the time when the darkness begins] he came with the twelve.
18 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Truly I say unto you, One of you which eats with me shall betray me.
19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?
20 And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dips with me in the dish.
21 The Son of man indeed goes [hupage – lead under: speaking of the misleading that takes Him and all humanity into the belly of the earth: swallowed {by eating and drinking corruption} into the belly of hell], as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed [paradidomi – to give away: surrender]! good were it for that man if he had never been born.
22 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.
24 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.
25 Truly I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.
26 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
27 And Jesus says unto them, All you shall be offended because of me this night [during the time of darkness in which you shall all sleep]: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered [as they are this day].
28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee [as the first-fruit of the LORD’s inner circle].
The LORD, above in verse 21, tells us plainly the betrayer is he that dips with Him in the “dish.”
The Greek word rendered “dish,” only appearing here and in Matthew 26:23 in the same revelation, is trublion, meaning “neuter of a presumed derivative of uncertain affinity; a bowl.” It bears apparent affinity to the words tribos (meaning a warn rut, path) and tribolos, meaning “properly, a crow-foot (three-pronged obstruction in war), i.e. (by analogy) a thorny plant (caltrop):–brier, thistle.
The first of these (tribos) only appears three times, once in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, all in quoting Isaiah 40:3, speaking of the “path” prepared and straitened before the LORD. In Isaiah the path is the “highway” of God made straight in the desert, using the Hebrew word mcillah, spiritually asking what highway (ma calal). In the question the LORD leads us to the answer in the (affinitive) word mgillah (ma galal – what heap of water), meaning “a roll:– roll, or volume,” as in the full body of this exposition, which is the way, truth, and life (made flesh).
The Thayer’s Greek Lexicon adds that trublion means “a deep dish.”
The word tribolos only appears twice, first, in Matthew 7:16 rendered “thistles” and then in Hebrews 6:8 as “briers,”
Matthew 7
6 Give not [to the Judases] that which is holy [the pure word delivered to us from the LORD] unto the dogs [who are forever barking in the darkness at what they can’t see], neither cast you your pearls before swine [the unclean beast who are without the LORD’s Spirit], lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend [scatter into pieces] you.
7 Ask, and it [understanding] shall be given you; seek [diligently], and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8 For every one that ask receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.
9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread [this understanding from the mouth of God], will he give him a [dead] stone?
10 Or if he ask a fish [the life below the surface of these waters], will he give him a serpent [who will mislead him]?
11 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven [with full understanding] give good things to them that ask him?
12 Therefore all things whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you even so to them [giving as you have received from you heavenly Father]: for this is the law and the prophets.
13 Enter you in at the strait gate [now understood to be narrowed by false prophets and false teachers who must be navigated and avoided]: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way [out of the kingdom of God], that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that [avoid the obstacles and] find it.
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves [scattering the flock].
16 You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles [tribolos – misleaders now dipping their hand in the deep dish with the LORD]?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.
21 Not every one that says unto me, LORD, LORD, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. [John 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which sees the Son, and believes on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.]
22 Many will say to me in that day, LORD, LORD, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you [because you have chosen your own words and ways]: depart from me, you that work iniquity [working your own will].
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a Rock [Christ alive in me]:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
26 And every one that hears these sayings of mine, and does them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:
29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
Hebrews 5
4 And no man taketh this honor unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made a high priest; but he that said unto him, You are my Son, to day have I begotten you.
6 As he says also in another place, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing you are dull of hearing.
12 For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again which be the first principles [stoicheion] of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13 For every one that use milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongs to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised [working out corruption] to discern both good and evil.
Hebrews 6
1 Therefore [now discerning good and evil] leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3 And this will we do, if God permit.
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that comes oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receive blessing from God:
8 But that which bears thorns and briers [tribolos] is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
9 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which you have shown toward his name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
11 And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:
12 That you be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he swore by himself,
14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.
15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
16 For men truly swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife [antilogia – arguments of opposition].
17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to show unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters into that within the veil;
20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered [into the presence of God], even Jesus, made a high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
When the above speaks of the “confirmation” (of the oath that ends the arguments of opposition), it’s the twice-used Greek word bebaiosis, meaning “stabiliment.”
In this statement, the LORD today refers us to Genesis 26:3 and the promise (oath) there reiterated, and Isaiah 33:6, which speaks of the stability of our time.
The (Genesis 26) story’s point is the end of contention and strife. It comes in a time when God’s people (patterned in Isaac and Rebekah – the ensnarer) are among their enemies (the Philistines). It tells of these enemies, while at peace, becoming envious of the prosperity of God’s people: the blessing that comes by obeying His voice: the wells (from where living waters are drawn), which the enemies kept stopping. We’re told these wells were called contention and strife, which speaks of the means of stopping them: the opposition of enemies in our midst. The solution Isaac (he laughs) finds is to continually move until he find new wells (for the same waters – not stopped by strife and contention), which, when found, is named Beersheba, meaning it is the (unstoppable) well of the oath.
Friends, I tell you the LORD’s intended end, the rescue (harpazo, natsal – as a brand plucked from the fire) of Israel, is a mass exodus here into Babylon, which we in New Heavenly Jerusalem now possess. Hear and obey the word of the LORD, diligently search, and He will open this truth.
Isaiah 26
19 Your dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, you that dwell in dust: for your dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
20 Come, my people, enter you into your chambers, and shut your doors about you: hide yourself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.
21 For, behold, the LORD comes out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
Genesis 26
2 And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell you of:
3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you; for unto you, and unto your seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I swore unto Abraham your father;
4 And I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
6 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar [near Gaza]:
7 And the men of the place asked him of his wife; and he said, She is my sister: for he feared to say, She is my wife; lest, said he, the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah [the ensnarer]; because she was fair to look upon.
8 And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.
9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is your wife; and how said you, She is my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.
10 And Abimelech said, What is this you have done unto us? one of the people might lightly have laid with your wife, and you shouldest have brought guiltiness upon us.
11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.
12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.
13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:
14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.
15 For all the wells which his father’s servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.
16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for you are much mightier than we.
17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
19 And Isaac’s servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
20 And the herdsmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac’s herdsmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek [contention]; because they strove with him.
21 And they digged another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah [strife].
22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth [from rachab – an enlarging]; and he said, For now the LORD has made room [rachab] for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
23 And he went up from thence to Beersheba [“well of the sevenfold oath”].
24 And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham your father: fear not, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
25 And he built an altar there, and called upon the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac’s servants digged a well.
26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath [the possessors of this land] one of his friends [My dead body], and Phichol [mouth of all] the chief captain of his army.
27 And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore come you to me, seeing you hate me, and have sent me away from you?
28 And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with you: and we said, Let there be now an oath betwixt us, even betwixt us and you, and let us make a covenant with you;
29 That you will do us no hurt, as we have not touched you, and as we have done unto you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace: you are now the blessed of the LORD.
30 And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink.
31 And they rose up betimes in the morning, and swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had digged, and said unto him, We have [diligently searched and] found water.
33 And he called it Shebah [the perfected oath]: therefore the name of the city is Beersheba unto this day.
Isaiah 33
2 O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for you: be you their arm [might – strength] every morning, our salvation [yshuw’ah – Jesus, Jehovah’s Salvation in the flesh] also in the time of trouble [tsarah – this time of tribulation].
3 At the noise [qowl – the voice] of the tumult [hamown – Your multitude] the people fled; at the lifting up of yourself the nations [gowy – those who haven’t known You] were scattered.
4 And your spoil [you recovered from those who spoiled us] shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpillar [until nothing remains in their hands]: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he [in His multitude] run upon them.
5 The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he has filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
6 And [His] wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability [’emuwn – meaning “literally firmness; figuratively security; morally fidelity”] of your times, and strength of salvation [yshuw’ah – Jesus, Jehovah’s Salvation in the flesh]: the fear of the LORD is his treasure.
7 Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors [mal’ak – the messengers: leviathan {the priesthood} of Isaiah 27:1, from who should be heard the highways, who will make peace with Me] of peace shall weep bitterly.
8 The highways [the ancient wisdom and knowledge] lie waste, the wayfaring man ceases: he has broken the covenant, he has despised the cities, he regards no man.
9 The earth mourns [its own desolation] and languishes [‘amal – waxes feeble]: Lebanon [where purity should be seen om high] is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon [what is in plain sight] is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel [what was a fruitful garden] shakes off their fruits.
10 Now will I rise, says the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.
11 You shall conceive chaff, you shall bring forth stubble: your breath [the evil spirit in you that produces worthlessness], as fire, shall devour you.
12 And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns [misleaders] cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
13 Hear [shama’ – obey this good leading], you that are far off [rachowq. – you who find yourselves in this time when the world is ruled by evil decree, deadly prescriptions of perverse law meant to demoralize, confuse, and control those obeying them], what I have done; and, you that are near, acknowledge my might.
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness has surprised [‘achaz] the hypocrites [chaneph – those whose minds are blinded by corruption]. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
15 He that walketh righteously, and speaks uprightly; he that despises the gain of oppressions, that shakes his hands from holding of bribes, that stops his ears from hearing of blood [the words of evil men meant to drain the life of those following their evil prescription], and shuts his eyes from seeing evil [as the way];
16 He shall dwell on high: his place of defense shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.
17 Your eyes [being purified of corruption] shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off [merchaq – this appointed time the LORD decreed].
18 Your heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?
19 You shall not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech [speaking this word of God] than you can perceive [because it is the word of God you reject]; of a stammering tongue [a foreign language, truth you don’t speak], that you can not understand.
20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: your eyes shall see [New Heavenly] Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.
21 But there the glorious LORD will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams [through which His teaching flows into the sea: the people at large]; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby [‘abar – none of the corrupt and corrupting institutions of church and state now in power over the sea shall Passover into life].
22 For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king [from whom these things flow]; he will save us.
23 Your tackling are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail [nec – could not bring forth the son of man, the voice now exalted, spreading the LORD’s Spirit upon all]: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.
24 And the inhabitants [abiding in Him] shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
Job 6
13 Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me? [God’s hated people should understand they have received this help.]
14 To him that is afflicted pity should be shown from his friend [friends]; but he [they] forsake the fear of the Almighty.
15 My brethren have dealt deceitfully [bagad – treacherously] as a brook [whose corrupt waters have flowed into the sea], and as the stream of brooks [dried up] they pass away;
16 Which are blackish [full of ignorance] by reason of the ice [the word of God frozen, reserved for this moment], and wherein the snow is hid [in the cloud where the elements of understanding were reserved after they left the earth]:
17 What time they wax warm [and the word reserved therein the snow and ice flow as waters from heaven], they [the words that flow from the wicked] vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed [dried up] out of their place.
18 The paths of their [corrupt] way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish.
19 The troops of Tema [the wise] looked, the companies of Sheba [who’ve taken oaths to serve the LORD] waited for them.
20 They were confounded because they had hoped [in their own creations]; they came thither, and were ashamed [disappointed because the end they promised wasn’t the true end the LORD promised].
21 For now you are nothing; you see my casting down, and are afraid.
22 Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance?
23 Or, Deliver me from the enemy’s hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?
24 Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
25 How forcible are right words! but what does your arguing reprove?
26 Do you imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?
27 Yea, you overwhelm the fatherless, and you dig a pit for your friend.
28 Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.
29 Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness is in it.
30 Is there iniquity in my tongue [speaking the word the LORD has given me]? cannot my taste discern [your] perverse things?
Ecclesiastes 4
1 So I returned [from death], and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter [no man teaching them into all truth, leading them from the dead to join me in life]; and on the side of their oppressors there was power [to deceive and hold men in death]; but they had no comforter.
2 Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living [who’ve already awakened to everlasting contempt, who know they are here to do the work of Satan and willingly do it] which are yet alive.
3 Yea, better is he than both they, which has not yet been [born again], who has not seen [realized] the evil work that is done under the sun.
4 Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbor. This is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
5 The fool [not knowing this time] folds his hands together [not working with me], and [in his ignorance and sloth] eats his own flesh.
6 Better is a handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit.
7 Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun.
8 There is one [alive from the dead doing the LORD’s will] alone, and there is not a second; yea, he has neither child nor brother: yet is there no end [qets] of all his labor; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither says he, For whom do I labor, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yea, it is a sore travail.
9 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor.
10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falls; for he has not another to help him up.
11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
12 And if one prevails [taqaph] against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken [the LORD in me unknown, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost as ONE].
13 Better is a poor [micken – only used here and three time in Ecclesiastes 9:15 & 16; meaning without worldly power, who in the end is realized to be the true king] and a wise child [yeled] than an old and foolish king [as is feeble Brandon], who will no more be admonished.
14 For out of prison [‘acar – with this yoke] he comes to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom [joined, yoked, with him] becometh poor [ruwsh – destitute of understanding].
15 I considered all the living which walk under the sun, with the second child [yeled – the wise child who is sent to deliver out of the hand of the wicked] that shall stand up [‘amad – as Michael, who is the image and likeness of God] in his stead [against the wicked and feeble king].
16 There is no end [qets] of [the lives of] all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after [Solomon – in these last days of darkness: ignorance] shall not rejoice [samach – be brightened] in him [in the wise child]. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
Ecclesiastes 9
10 Whatsoever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave [sheol – in hell where all the dead are housed], whither you go [and now “find” yourselves].
11 I returned [to a right mind], and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance [pega’ – occurrence, in which humanity finds itself] happens to them all [here in hell, in the death warned of in Genesis 2:17].
12 For man [‘adam] also knows not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly [pith’own – this is the epiphany, the moment of realizing the reality we find ourselves in] upon them.
13 This wisdom have I seen also under the sun, and it seemed great unto me:
14 There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it:
15 Now there was found in it a poor [micken] wise man [‘adam], and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered [zakar] that same poor [micken] man [‘iysh].
16 Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor [micken] man’s wisdom is despised [among the dead], and his words are not heard [because the language of the dead is lies: deception, confusion, and insanity wherefore the dead are unable to distinguish between their delusions and this reality].
17 The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that rule among fools.
18 Wisdom is better than weapons of war: but one sinner [whose voice is exalted] destroys much good.
Fiends, the few of you who will [[again]] read this far, the world doesn’t believe in God and, therefore, can’t comprehend this as reality. They will see these words as those of one using masterfully arranged creations to deceive and manipulate people, as they do with their lies and deceptions. They have no idea I Am not alone and that the Creator of all is truly alive in Me doing the work, present to save His people as promised. There is only one way this ends: with the creation of a new earth built upon the ruin of the old and corrupt.
John 8
25 Then said they unto him, Who are you? And Jesus says unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
27 They understood not that he spoke to them of the Father [alive in me].
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When you have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father has taught me, I speak these things.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father has not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 As he spoke these words, many believed on him.
31 Then said Jesus to those [Christians and] Jews which believed on him, If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed;
32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
John 14
10 Believe you not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he does the works.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
12 Truly, truly, I say unto you, He that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13 And whatsoever you shall ask in my name [in my identity, manifesting My presence in you], that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If you shall ask any thing in my name [in my identity], I will do it.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter [the Paraclete, I Am in me], that he may abide with you forever;
17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it sees him not, neither knows him [because I Am a poor man: without worldly power]: but you know him; for he dwells with you, and shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world sees me no more; but you see me [My identity now manifested in these words and works]: because I live, you shall live also.
20 At that day you shall know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
Philippians 1
2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the LORD Jesus Christ.
3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
4 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,
5 For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;
6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
7 Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defense and confirmation [bebaiosis] of the gospel, you all are partakers of my grace [these treasures the LORD has to me entrusted].
8 For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ [the LORD alive in me].
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;
10 That you may approve things that are excellent [discerning good and evil]; that you may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ [risen in you].
11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
12 But I would you should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;
13 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;
14 And many of the brethren in the LORD, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the [this] word without fear.
Micah 4
1 But in the last days [‘achariyth] it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains [His teaching exalted above all other voices], and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.
2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion [the first dominion – “eternal life,” in full understanding: i.e., “heaven,” where man has rest in sustainable peace and civilization, as it was in Eden], and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.
4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken it.
5 For all people will walk everyone in the name of his god [the idols they worship, which cannot bring them to peace], and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.
6 In that day, says the LORD, will I assemble her that halts [is lame, and thereby strayed from the course to the prize], and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;
7 And I will make her that halted [was lame and strayed] a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD shall reign over them in mount Zion [the first dominion establishing the new age of heaven and earth] from henceforth, even forever.
8 And you, O tower of the flock [that see His Glory in His appearing and kingdom], the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto you shall it come, even the first [ri’shown] dominion [memshalah]; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Now why do you cry out aloud? is there no king in you? is your counselor perished? for pangs have taken you as a woman in travail [the pain that is only to bring forth him that must be lifted up: whose voice must be exalted].
10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shall you go forth out of the city, and you shall dwell in the field, and you shall go even to Babylon [shall be in the world controlled by the confusion that comes from many ignorant and deceiving voices until this voice is exalted]; there shall you be delivered [natsal – as a brand plucked from the fire]; there the LORD shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
11 Now also many nations are gathered against you, that say, Let her be defiled [let God’s people be corrupted, as we are, by following the gods, idols, of this world], and let our eye look upon [be the vision of] Zion.
12 But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither understand they his counsel: for he shall gather them as the sheaves into the floor.
13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make your horn [power as strong as] iron, and I will make your hoofs [your way as] brass: and you shall beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain [charam betsa’ – devote what they have plundered] unto the LORD, and their substance [chayil – the forces that sustain them] unto the LORD of the whole earth [His dominion as at first].
Jude 1
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 [this ‘achariyth], who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19 These be they who separate themselves [from Him here], sensual, having not the Spirit.
20 But you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, 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 should fear the destruction that comes upon those not receiving the LORD’s mercy], pulling [harpazo] them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 Now unto him that is able to keep 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.
Isaiah 62
6 I have set watchmen upon your walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: you that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence,
7 And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
8 The LORD has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give your corn to be meat for your enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink your wine, for the which you have labored:
9 But they that have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness.
10 Go through [‘abar], go through [‘abar] the gates [Passover from death into life, through the gates of hell into the kingdom of God]; prepare you the way of the people; cast up [calal], cast up [calal] the highway [mcillah]; gather out the [dead] stones; lift up a standard [nec – the voice of the LORD exalted above all others, as Moses lifted the serpent in the wilderness] for the people.
11 Behold, the LORD has proclaimed unto the end of the [totally corrupt] world, Say you to the daughter of Zion, Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him [paniym – His work declaring His presence].
12 And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and you shall be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.
Revelation 21
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 He that overcomes [the confusion that blinded the world into insanity] shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
Isaiah 65
15 And you [the old and corrupt] shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the LORD God shall slay you, and call his servants by another name:
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 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 Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
Hebrews 12
22 But you [who’ve received Him and His correction] are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels [messengers receiving and delivering His message, publishing His good tidings],
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect [come to life in His presence],
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling [His sacrificing to deliver this message, as the sunrise upon all], that speak better things than that of Abel.
25 See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven [the place of full understanding]:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he has promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven [that the wicked and their corruption are shaken from them and they, heaven and earth, are born again].
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom [of God, heaven on the earth] which cannot be moved, let us have [not refusing] grace [this free gift of His treasures], whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
Romans 10
1 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is [all His chosen family at large, those who receive this promised end], that they might be saved.
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they being ignorant of [in darkness not knowing] God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness [trying to prove their corrupt ways are the right way], have not submitted themselves [hupotasso] unto the righteousness [the right way] of God.
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes.
5 For Moses describes the righteousness which is of the law [without understanding], That the man which does those things [with understanding] shall live by them.
6 But the righteousness which is of faith speak on this wise, Say not in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above [to give us understanding]:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead [to give us again understanding].)
8 But what says it? The word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart [mind]: that is, the word of faith [that the word, understanding, received is the LORD’s], which we preach;
9 That if you shall confess with your mouth the LORD Jesus [Jehovah’s salvation manifested in the flesh He chooses], and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him [He has chosen to dwell in] from the dead, you shall be saved.
10 For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [I confess Jesus Christ is One God alive in my flesh!]
11 For the scripture says [in Isaiah 28:16], Whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed [shall reach this expected end, our hope realized].
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same LORD over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For [Joel 2:32 says] whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written [in Isaiah 52:7], How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah [53:1] says, LORD, who has believed our report [in Hebrew “report” is from the many times discussed word shmuw’ah {shama’ Yah}, meaning heard and obeyed what is reported as the word of Jehovah, as it is, His sound “doctrine” He is teaching, as in Isaiah 28:9, asking “Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine {shmuw’ah – His report}?”]?
17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by [receiving report, the preaching, as] the word of God.
18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes truly, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends [ending the old and beginning the new] of the world.
19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
20 But Isaiah [in Isaiah 65:1 & 2] is very bold, and says, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.
21 But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying [antilego – opposing His rightly ordered discourse] people [of who Isaiah 65:5 says they haven’t found Him because they, those choosing to remain among the dead, are saying they are holier than Him; of whom He says they are like smoke in His nose, meaning to be fanned away by His hand].
Psalms 67
1 God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause his face [paniym – presence] to shine [His understanding] upon us; Selah.
2 That your way may be known upon earth, your saving health among all nations.
3 Let the people praise you, O God; let all the people praise you.
4 O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for you shall judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.
5 Let the people praise you, O God; let all the people praise you.
6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.
7 God shall bless us; and all the ends [the end of the old and beginning the new] of the earth shall fear him.
