All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

28 – 29 December 2023

All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

Friends, the world is filled with the voices of those leading any who’ll follow. In the church and state, these men say they know the way, know God, and call themselves masters of truth. Not one will dare say they have no understanding of their own and are instead vessels in which He (the Father) lives, speaking and working His will, revealing Himself in the secret places reserved for Him. When the LORD calls all these men, here and now, “thieves and robbers,” He speaks of His flock and His position, which these men steal away into scattered destruction.

John 10
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Truly, truly, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10 The thief comes not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
12 But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees: and the wolf catches them, and scatters the sheep.
13 The hireling flees, because he is an hireling, and cares not for the sheep.
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knows me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
17 Therefore does my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews [God’s people who claim they know Him, while not recognizing His presence, because they are the thieves and robbers who came before Him] for these sayings.
20 And many of them said, He has a devil, and is mad; why hear you him?
21 Others said, These are not the words of him that has a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?

Father, speak to us as Only You can, opening blind eyes.

In the verses before the above, the LORD speaks a “parable,” which (parables) are the secret places He reserves revelation of Himself, as the door the Father opens, letting in the faithful who trust in Him (One Shepherd) and not in themselves (or the thieves and robbers who’ve come before).

John 10
1 Truly, truly, I say unto you, He that enters not by the door [Christ alive in me] into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way [of their own], the same is a thief and a robber.
2 But he that enters in by the door [telling you plainly it is Father alive in me speaking and doing His work] is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 To him the porter [the door keepers] opens; and the sheep hear his [the Father’s] voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name [calling them His children by receiving Him], and leadeth them out [of the houses of darkness, from among the thieves and robbers].
4 And when he puts forth his own sheep [in them revealing Himself to the world], he goes before them [bearing the necessary cross that comes with declaring the LORD is risen in us, manifesting His presence], and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice [is the voice of the Father alive in him].
5 And a stranger [preaching and teaching some other way] will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6 This parable spoke Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spoke unto them.

The word, in verse 6 above, rendered “parable” is the five times used Greek word paroimai, said to mean, “from a compound of 3844 [para – nearness] and perhaps a derivative of 3633 [oimai]; apparently a state alongside of supposition, i.e. (concretely) an adage; specially, an enigmatical or fictitious illustration:–parable, proverb.”

The only other times it (paroimai) is used are three times in John 16 by the LORD and once by Peter in 2 Peter 2:22.

John 16
19 Now Jesus [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh of His perpetual son] knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do you enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while [when you are scattered by the thieves and robber who’ve come before me], and you shall not see me: and again, a little while, and you shall see me [when I have removed your blindness]?
20 Truly, truly, I say unto you, That you shall weep and lament [thinking I Am not with you], but the world shall rejoice [thinking I Am dead]: and you shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy [when I reveal myself in alive here among the dead in hell, taking up my life again, as the Father gave me power].
21 A woman when she is in travail has sorrow, because her hour is come [to bring forth the firstborn]: but as soon as she is [God’s people are] delivered of the child, she remembers no more the anguish, for joy that a man [the second Adam] is born into the world.
22 And you now therefore have sorrow [not seeing me]: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy [realizing the LORD is with us, alive in His ONE BODY] no man takes from you.
23 And in that day you shall ask me nothing. Truly, truly, I say unto you, Whatsoever you shall ask the Father in my name [in the identity of Christ alive in us: His ONE BODY], he will give it you.
24 Hitherto have you asked nothing in my name [Jehovah’s Salvation, Jesus manifested in our flesh]: ask, and you shall receive, that your joy [realizing He is with us, is] may be full [Christ all in all].
25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs [paroimai – bringing this state of mind near to you]: but the time comes, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs [paroimai], but I shall show you plainly of the Father [alive in me first, and realizing He is alive in those who receive Him at His presence manifest near us].
26 At that day you shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
27 For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came out [I Am born] from God.
28 I came forth [Am born] from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world [will not be seen by it, when the darkness comes by the works of thieves and robbers], and go to the Father.
29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speak you plainly [and right], and speak no proverb [paroimai].
30 Now are we sure that you know all things, and need not that any man should ask you: by this we believe that you came forth from God.
31 Jesus answered them, Do you now believe?
32 Behold, the hour comes, yea, is now come, that you shall be scattered [by thieves and robbers], every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is [always alive] with me [called the Holy Ghost, the Paraclete, working and speaking unknown in the world’s blindness: cultivated ignorance].
33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in [believing and seeing] me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome [the blindness of] the world.

2 Peter 1
11 For so an entrance [eisodos – into the kingdom of God] shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ.
12 Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though you know them, and be established in the present truth.
13 Yea, I think it meet [appropriate], as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;
14 Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our LORD Jesus Christ has shown me.
15 Moreover I will endeavor that you may be able after my decease [exodos – after leaving the old body {come to remembrance and out of the old body, which shall not remain}] to have these things always in remembrance.
16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our LORD Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased [HEAR, Obey, Him].
18 And this voice which came from heaven [when we received full understanding] we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto you do well that you take heed, as unto a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star [phosphoros] arise in your hearts:
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation [by men presuming things, preaching and teaching their opinions as truth, saying God said, when He hasn’t said anything to them, other than what He says to all here and now].
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost [the LORD in them, unknown to the world and working all things toward this moment of awakening by His righteous interpretation].

2 Peter 2
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be [are many] false teachers among you, who privily [secretly, from their own imaginations, create lies] shall bring in damnable [apoleia – that cause them and those who follow their ways to perish] heresies, even denying the LORD that bought them [with this price], and bring upon themselves swift destruction [apoleia – perdition].
2 And many shall follow their pernicious [aploeia – the ways that lead to their own destruction] ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of [as it is this day].
3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned [fraudulent] words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingers not, and their damnation [apoleia – perishing, perdition] slumbers not [because they are awakened “to shame and everlasting contempt”].

17 These are wells without water [without this true word from the mouth of God the Father], clouds [saying in them there is understanding] that are carried with a tempest [the winds of their own false doctrines]; to whom the mist of darkness [ignorance] is reserved forever.
18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped [when the LORD was still with them] from them who live in error.
19 While they promise them liberty [saying they know the way], they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome [by the thieves and robbers who’ve come before me], of the same is he brought in bondage [to serve their corrupt ways and ideas].
20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions [blinding corruption] of the world through the knowledge of the LORD and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment [here and now] delivered unto them.
22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb [paroimai], The dog is turned to his own vomit again [barking in the darkness, after eating again their own vomit]; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire [the waters they muddied, clouded so nothing is clear, with the own feet].

2 Peter 3
3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God [this same word of God] the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition [apoleia] of ungodly men.
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the LORD as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 The LORD is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the LORD will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements [stoicheion – the corrupt foundational ideas and ways of men] shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements [stoicheion] shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
15 And account that the longsuffering of our LORD is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him has written unto you;
16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrestle, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction [apoleia – perdition].

The word (3633) oimai (oiomai), compounded with para (nearness) into the word paroimai, is only used three times, and means “to make like (oneself), i.e. imagine (be of the opinion):–suppose, think.”

When Peter (the LORD in him) says, in 2 Peter 1:16, we have not followed “cunningly devised” fables, it is from the twice used Greek word sophizo, (somewhat dubiously) said to mean “to render wise; in a sinister acceptation, to form “sophisms”, i.e. continue plausible error:–cunningly devised, make wise.”

It (sophizo) is a derivative of the word sophos, meaning wise, from saphes, meaning clear. It (sophizo, as used by Peter) is speaking of wise men devising fables (muthos – myths), which he says hasn’t happened and isn’t what we’ve followed. Instead, he describes men moved by a higher intellect interacting with their minds, inspiriting them, to write what exemplifies, without a doubt, the greatest feat of engineering (the creation of man’s mind, the written word, and the means of secure connection – communication, communion, with God) ever created, and of which man, experiencing it, only periodically intellectually touches the surface. It is this understanding, the magnitude of this reality, that is now, also without a doubt, becoming realized and will forever alter human future positively: into a more abundant life. (Reread the previous post in this context.)

The only other time sophizo appears is in 2 Timothy 3:15 where it is rendered “wise,” speaking of all scripture being inspired by God, saying it is cunningly devised (engineered) “unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus [believing Jehovah’s Salvation is manifested in the flesh of those to and through whom He thereby makes known His will].”

2 Timothy 3
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue you in the things which you have learned and have been assured of [knowing them, without a doubt, understanding by the experience], knowing of whom [the Father alive in me] you have learned them;
15 And that from a child you have known the holy scriptures, which are able to make you wise [sophizo – the masterpiece of His engineering] unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration [direct connection] of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man [born of] of God [one of only two times this title is used in the New Testament, both of Timothy] may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

James 1
1 James [Jacob], a servant of God and of the LORD Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes [all my children] which are scattered abroad, greeting.
2 My brethren, count it all joy [a chance to be strengthened in the realization of the LORD’s presence manifested with us, in us] when you fall into divers temptations [situations that attempt to create doubt in His presence];
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience [which, in waiting, the LORD will appear to those who don’t doubt Him].
4 But let patience have her perfect work [when all we believe come into accord with what appears], that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that gives to all men liberally, and upbraids not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith [not doubting], nothing wavering. For he that wavers is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the LORD.
8 A double minded man [believing one moment and doubting the next] is unstable in all his ways.
9 Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted [by the LORD manifesting His presence to, in, the lowely]:
10 But the rich, in that he is made low [receiving nothing if he trusts in worldly riches]: because as the flower of the grass he shall [in doing] pass away.
11 For the sun [this great light] is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withers the grass [men trusting in man], and the flower [worldly value] thereof falls, and the grace of the fashion of it perishes: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
12 Blessed is the man that endures temptation [when he is tempted to doubt the LORD’s presence]: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life [full understanding], which the LORD has promised to them that love [agapao – giving these heavenly treasure, having unwavering faith they are from] him.
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil [misleading, damnable heresies, that cause doubt], neither tempts he any man:
14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed [by worldly wealth and power].
15 Then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, brings forth death.
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights [understanding], with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures [now created in this new heaven and earth].
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear [Him speaking], slow to speak [your own understanding], slow to wrath [threatening those destroying themselves by following misleaders mixed among them tempting them]:
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word [sent from the Father of lights, who alone reveals Himself], which is able to save your souls.
22 But be you doers of [as commanded, a giver giving] the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he beholds himself [is told who he is], and goes his way, and straightway forgets what manner of man he was.
25 But whoso looks into the perfect law of liberty [the freedom that comes with knowing the truth], and continues therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work [giving this word of truth as received], this man shall be blessed in his deed.
26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridles not his tongue, but deceives his own heart [speaking words without understanding], this man’s religion is vain [worthless].
27 Pure [uncorrupted] religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit [manifesting the LORD’s presence as the Chief Overseer of the earth, to] the fatherless and widows [those without a man of war to protect them from evil] in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from [uncorrupted by] the world.

Hebrews 13
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as you have: for he has said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you. [What part of this don’t you understand?]
6 So that we may boldly [without doubt] say, The LORD is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
7 Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose [unwavering] faith follow [because it is the LORD in me speaking], considering the end of their conversation.
8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
9 Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines [men’s creations from their imaginations]. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace [this gift directly from the Father]; not with meats [the works of dead flesh], which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.

Obadiah 1
1 The vision of Obadiah [the servant of Jehovah]. Thus says the LORD God concerning Edom [the enemies mixed among us at war with us]; We have heard a rumor [shmuw’ah – heard the voice] from the LORD, and an ambassador [tsiyr – the voice of Jehovah] is sent among the heathen [those who don’t know the LORD], Arise you, and let us rise up against her in battle.
2 Behold [see], I have made you [Jacob – God’s people still wrestling with Him and His voice from His messenger] small [qatan] among the heathen [those who don’t know me]: you are greatly despised.
3 The pride of your heart has deceived you, you that dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high [all the place of teachers and leaders]; that says in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
4 Though you exalt yourself as the eagle, and though you set your nest among the stars, thence will I bring you down, says the LORD.
5 If thieves came to you, if robbers by night, (how are you cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? if the grape-gatherers came to you, would they not leave some grapes?
6 How are the things of Esau [the enemies among us in power] searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!
7 All the men of your confederacy [joining with communists and God haters] have brought you even to the border [this limit, your end]: the men that were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you; they that eat your bread have laid a wound under you: there is none understanding in him.
8 Shall I not in that day, says the LORD, even destroy the wise men out of Edom [the enemies in power], and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
9 And your mighty men, O Teman [the places where understanding should be found], shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
10 For your violence against your brother Jacob shame shall cover you, and you shall be cut off forever.
11 In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates [crossed our borders], and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even you were as one of them.
12 But you shouldest not have looked on the day of your brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest you have rejoiced over the children of Judah [the leaders of My people] in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest you have spoken proudly in the day of distress.
13 You shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, you shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity;
14 Neither shouldest you have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest you have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress.
15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as you have done, it shall be done unto you: your reward shall return upon your own head.
16 For as you have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.
17 But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph [Ephraim] a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD has spoken it.
19 And they of the south [in whom My power is revealed] shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines [Palestinians – the enemy army now among us plainly seen]: and they [the men of the south] shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead [those who become My right hand shall possess this mountain of My testimony].
20 And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel [the LORD’s people, His army, returned to their right mind] shall possess that of the Canaanites [those zealously evil, fighting against God and His people], even unto Zarephath [when this is realized to be the refining fire]; and the captivity of [in which minds return to the LORD, in New Heavenly] Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad [among those who were before separated from Him], [and they] shall possess the cities of the south [where His power appears to those looking to His light].
21 And saviors [the ONE BODY of Christ] shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount [the rulers] of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD’s.

The word, in verse 21 above, rendered “kingdom,” is the twenty-four times used Hebrew word mluwkah, said to be a “feminine passive participle of 4427; something ruled, i.e. a realm:–kingdom, king’s, X royal.” It is said to be from (4427) malak, meaning to reign, which we understand bears an affinity to mal’ak, meaning messenger or angel. It (mluwkah), with intention, speaks of the one (here above, the ONE BODY of Christ) under whom this reign occurs.

As a matter of engineering and communicating, we understand the word is from the Hebrew words ma luwts, and the Aramaic word kah: ma asking and describing “what;” luwts, meaning to speak, as to intercede with an interpretation, and kah, in context, only appearing one time, in Daniel 7:27, telling us it is the end of the matter.

Daniel 7
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth [Babylon, the world ruled into, and by, confusion caused by those who’ve governed it into this state with intentional lies, the destruction of reliable discourse, as policy], which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces [as it is this day, become without form and voice, and darkness covers the face of all deep understanding].
24 And the ten horns [complete corruption of all worldly government] out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them [Obama, and his idiot children: communists in church and state]; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings [destroying from within all three independent equal branches of our government].
25 And he shall speak great words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and think to change times [zman] and laws [trying to create a new world built upon injustice and inequality]: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
26 But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
27 And the kingdom [milkuw] and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom [malkuw] under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom [malkuw] is an everlasting kingdom [malkuw], and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
28 Hitherto [‘ad kah – until like this] is the end of the matter [millah – meaning “a word, command, discourse, or subject;” the same word used above telling of the “great words” spoken again the Most High, evil decrees that have worn out His saints, but not Him]. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter [millah] in my heart [in my mind, and as inspirited, wrote it sealed into this book].

The word rendered time, three times in verse 25 above, is ‘iddian, meaning “a set time,” from ‘ed (the same as ‘ad, “until” in verse 28), speaking the periods during which these “matters” occur, ending with their correct interpretation here and now.

The word millah appears three other times in Daniel 12. The first, in verse 1, tells us this correct interpretation, the “sum” re’sh (meaning in his “head,” as full understanding into His mind) of the matter, which is what Daniel was shown (and was then told to seal into his written words).

Daniel 7
1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head [re’sh] upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum [re’sh] of the matters [millah].
2 Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night [how darkness came upon the earth], and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea [and man was given understanding from God].
3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings [spoke as the voice of God, with Him in heaven with the strength of His full understanding]: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked [and man’s strength over time deteriorated into darkness], and it was lifted up [and understand was removed] from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man [with a carnal mind lacking light, while, in their own conceit, thinking they were wise], and a man’s heart was given to it [and the minds of those in power became filled with darkness].

The next two (uses of millah) come, in verses 11 & 16, as we’re told these are the “words” (false interpretation: lies, false accusation, and evil decrees, that rule the world) of the horns, the darkened powers in church and state, and the right interpretation of these “things,” which Daniel received.

Daniel 7
8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days [the wisdom and understanding that created the first dominion] did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels [this understanding received, of the word of those who before understood, and, as commanded sent their word forward, to this moment of full understanding] as burning fire.
10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books [that were sealed until this time] were opened.
11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words [millah] which the horn spoke: I beheld even till the beast [Babylon – the confusion that has ruled while the word was sealed] was slain, and his [evil] body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
12 As concerning the rest of the beasts [all the power that, by rejection, remain without this Spirit of the LORD, light in which is life], they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for [‘ad – until] a season [zman] and time [‘iddian].
13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven [with full understanding returned to the earth], and came to the Ancient of days [with full understanding, light of this new day, returned to the earth], and they brought him near before him [to His ONE BODY].
14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom [malkuw], that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom [malkuw] that which shall not be destroyed.
15 I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.
16 I came near unto one [the LORD’s Spirit communicating with me] of them that stood by [the Paraclete, sent with full understanding], and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things [millah].

The word mluwkah, speaking of the “kingdom” now again established, only appears five times in the major prophets, two of which are in Isaiah (34:12 & 62:3).

Isaiah 34
1 Come near, you nations, to hear [shama’ – obey]; and hearken, you people: let the earth hear [shama’ – obey], and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.
2 For the indignation of the LORD is upon all nations, and his fury upon all their armies: he has utterly destroyed them, he has delivered them to the slaughter.
3 Their slain also shall be cast out, and their stink shall come up out of their carcasses, and the mountains [all their governments] shall be melted with their blood.

8 For it is the day of the LORD’s vengeance, and the year of recompense for the controversy of Zion [the controversy over who should rule God’s people: those destroying them or the One come to Save them from the destroyers].
9 And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch [their words turned into burning darkness: ignorance], and the dust thereof into brimstone [gophriyth], and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
10 It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up forever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it forever and ever.
11 But the cormorant and the bittern shall possess it; the owl also and the raven shall dwell in it: and he shall stretch out upon it the line of confusion [tohuw – without form], and the stones of emptiness [bohuw – a void].
12 They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom [mluwkah], but none shall be there, and all her princes shall be nothing.
13 And thorns [misleaders] shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles [misleaders, as if grown in an unattended garden] in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be a habitation of dragons [tan – beasts who devour with wide-open mouths], and a court for owls [those hunting souls in the darkness].

Isaiah 62
1 For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness [full understanding], and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burns [showing the way in the darkness].
2 And the Gentiles shall see your righteousness, and all kings your glory: and you shall be called by a new [chadash] name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.
3 You shall also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal [mluwkah] diadem in the hand of your God.

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 makes [New Heavenly] Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

10 Go through, go through the gates [out of hell into heaven]; prepare you the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people.
11 Behold, the LORD has proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say you to the daughter of Zion, Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.
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.

Psalms 110
1 The LORD [Jehovah] said unto my LORD [‘adown – the king He will establish], Sit you at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.
2 The LORD [Jehovah] shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion: rule you in the midst of your enemies.
3 Your people shall be willing in the day of your power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: you have the dew of your youth.
4 The LORD [Jehovah] has sworn, and will not repent, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek [the king of righteousness, and king of peace].
5 The LORD [‘Adonay – the King of kings] at your right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads [ro’sh – those whose evil ideas and ways rule] over many countries [‘erets – over the earth].
7 He shall drink of the brook in the way [this word sent into this time, to be revealed, by which]: therefore, shall he lift up [ruwm – raise and exalt] the head [ro’sh – His righteous ideas and way].

Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in my anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:

26 – 27 December 2023

Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in my anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:

The LORD above, in Jeremiah 32:37, is speaking of Jerusalem, which He gave into captivity: His people’s minds held by the lies of false prophets, under the misleading of their kings and priests estranged from the LORD. It is back to a right state of mind, New Heavenly Jerusalem, He promises He’ll gather them again, by the correction spoken of in Hebrews 12, returned thereby to His one way, by exalting His one voice from His anointed.

Jeremiah 32
38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God:
39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me forever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:
40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.
41 Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
42 For thus says the LORD; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.

Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is the substance [hupostasis – under-standing] of things hoped for, the evidence [elegcho, meaning proof, or conviction] of things not seen.

The final two verses of Jeremiah 32 say, “43 And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof you say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans {those using deception to manipulate and control those ignorant of their devices}. 44 Men shall buy fields for money {pay the necessary price to redeem the world from these men’s control}, and subscribe {kathar – write} evidences, and seal {chatham} them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin {this last born generation, who become the Father’s right hand, by faith, receiving His correction and becoming His children, who were be before not His people, to which He now says, “You are My people”}, and in the places about Jerusalem {taught the One way to sustainable peace, teaching, correction, that flows directly from the Father}, and in the cities of Judah {among My elect remnant who by faith return to Me }, and in the cities of the mountains {where I am establishing My New Heavenly governments], and in the cities of the valley {with those who’ve humbled themselves to receive His correction}, and in the cities of the south {where My power is manifested to those looking to and obeying the light}: for I will cause their captivity {of there minds, in New Heavenly Jerusalem} to return, says the LORD.”

Hebrews 11
2 For by it [faith in what is heard and not yet seen] the elders obtained a good report.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen [by the faithful who were in darkness] were not made of things which do appear [when understanding has come].
4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaks.
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise [the promised end, the better thing God prepared for us, that these faithful witnesses obeyed and spoke, as He commanded, that they without us, our speaking by the same faith, would not reach]:
10 For he looked for a city [New Heavenly Jerusalem] which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11 Through faith also Sarah herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off [in this appointed time the LORD long ago decreed], and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth [journeying toward this moment, when death is swallowed up in victory].
14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
16 But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly [New Jerusalem]: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he has prepared for them a city.

The five times used Greek word hupostasis, above rendered “substance,” literally from words meaning under and standing, is elsewhere twice rendered “confidence,” and once each as “confident” and “person.” In all its uses, it speaks of the ONE in which we have faith by under-standing: our “confidence” knowing His voice heard from the “person” “confident” in the LORD speaking through Him, as I Am confident, and boast of Him as I ought.

2 Corinthians 9
1 For as touching the ministering to the saints [in the original text this says – Touching {peri} truly for the ministering to the saints], it is superfluous [perissos – touching the living, because of this superabundance of this dispensation the LORD has committed into my hand] for me to write to you:
2 For I know the forwardness of your mind [prothumia – the readiness of your mind; you are those for whom it is intended, God having prepared a better end for us], for which I boast [kauchaomai] of [the LORD’s work in] you to them of Macedonia [the houses of dead flesh, those led there by false preachers and teachers], that Achaia was [those who realized they are in the tribulation, were] ready [paraskeuazo – fully furnished for good works] a year ago; and your zeal [zelos – heat, the fire kindled in you by the LORD’s work] has provoked [erethizo – stimulated, awakened to contend for the faith] very many.
3 Yet have I sent the brethren [those still sleeping among us], lest our boasting [kauchema – of the LORD’s work] of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, you may be ready [paraskeuazo]:
4 Lest haply if they of Macedonia [of the houses of dead flesh, who remain asleep] come with me, and find you unprepared [aparasheuastos – unready for this work of God awakening them through you], we (that we say not, you [because I may be among the dead who will come to life by the obedience of those the LORD prepares and brings with Him]) should be ashamed [not reaching the end promised] in this same confident [hupostasis – faith in the inner person, the substance of things hoped for] boasting [kauchesis – rejoicing in the LORD].
5 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort [parakaleo – call along side, as the Comforter in me, the LORD yet unknown working and speaking to] the brethren, that they would go before [proerchomai – before through utterance] unto you, and make up beforehand [prokatartizo – only appearing here, meaning to be prepared in advance] your bounty [eulogia – by the LORD’s good words], whereof you had notice before [prokataggello – by which He is announced in advance], that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty [eulogia – the LORD’s good words], and not as of covetousness [pleonexia – not of “feigned words {to} make merchandise of you.”].
6 But this I say, He which sows [this word of God] sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully [eulogia] shall reap also bountifully [eulogia].
7 Every man according as he purpose in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loves a cheerful giver [who joyfully gives His word as received].
8 And God is able to make all grace [all the benefits of blessing others with His gift] abound toward you; that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:
9 (As it is written, He has dispersed abroad; he has given to the poor: his righteousness remains forever. [Quoted from Psalms 112:9, which speaks of this as how the desire of the wicked shall perish.]
10 Now he that ministers seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;)
11 Being enriched in every [good] thing to all bountifulness, which causes through us thanksgiving to God.
12 For the administration of this service not only supplies the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God;
13 Whiles by the experiment [dokime – the proof in the experience] of this ministration they glorify God for your professed [homologia – His same good words] subjection [hupotage – your subjection, obedience] unto [delivering] the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution [of the gift He has freely given us, to be given as received] unto them, and unto all men;
14 And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace [this gift] of God in you.
15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

2 Corinthians 11
10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting [of the LORD] in the regions of Achaia [this place of tribulation].
11 Wherefore? because I love you not? God knows.
12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we [as men in whom a spirit is working and speaking: the LORD in us and Satan resisting Him in them].
13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the [false] apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light [claiming the darkness in him is understanding].
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be [darkness in hell] according to their works.
16 I say again, let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.
17 That which I speak, I speak it not after the LORD, but as it were foolishly [mocking the foolish], in this confidence [hupostasis – understanding] of boasting [I in the LORD and them in Satan].
18 Seeing that many glory after the flesh [men trusting in men], I will glory also.
19 For you suffer fools gladly, seeing you yourselves are wise.
20 For you suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.
21 I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.
22 Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.
23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more [Christ truly in me]; in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.

Without foolishness, I therefore conclude:

30 If I must need glory, I will glory of the things which concern my infirmities [my weaknesses proving the power in me is Christ’s alone].
31 The God and Father of our LORD Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knows that I lie not.

Hebrews 1
1 God, who at sundry times [polumeros – only appearing here, meaning “in many portions, i.e. variously as to time and agency (piecemeal)”] and in divers manners [polutropos – also only here, meaning, “in many ways, i.e. variously as to method or form.”] spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Has in these last days spoken [the LORD speaking here and now] unto us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things [spoken by the many prophets, meant to be perfected as the better thing the Father has prepared for us], by whom also he made the worlds [the old, upon whose ruin He created the current age now ending in total corruption, and is in like manner making the New];
3 Who being the brightness [the understanding of His glory: His manifested presence], and the express image [charakter – the exact copy, “character”] of his person [hupostasis – understanding], and upholding all things by the word [carrying the full load of the light] of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high [until now when He again stands with us, in us]:
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name [identity] than they.

Hebrews 3
14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence [hupostasis – person and substance] steadfast unto the end;
15 While it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom swore he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief [a lack of faith in what they heard, thereby not allowing the word to touch and change them, and they, therefore, without understanding, remaining corrupted, wouldn’t obey].

Hebrews 1
8 But unto the Son he says, Your throne, O God, is forever and ever: a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of your kingdom.
9 You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
10 And, You, LORD, in the beginning have laid the foundation [themelioo] of the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands:
11 They shall perish; but you remain; and they all shall wax old as does a garment;
12 And as a vesture shall you fold them up, and they shall be changed [allasso]: but you are the same, and your years shall not fail.
13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?
14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister [this same word] for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Hebrews 11
39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.

Hebrews 12
1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses [sent to minster this word], let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest you be wearied and faint in your minds.
4 You have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks unto you as unto children, My son, despise not you the chastening of the LORD, nor faint when you are rebuked of him:
6 For whom the LORD loves he chastens [corrects out of corruption], and scourges every son whom he receives.
7 If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chastens not?
8 But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are you bastards, and not sons.
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

22 But you [who are the Father’s children by His correction] are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the [New] Heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels [messengers He sends to minister His message to the heirs of His promised Salvation],
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,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaks 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 throne of God with His 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.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made [by men], that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably [as His ministers] with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.

When Hebrews 3:15 above speaks of hearing the LORD’s voice to day, to give His light to the world, it’s quoted from Psalms 95:7 & 8, which, along with Psalms 96, are exhortations to sing the new song. The newness is a reference to the new covenant, as the LORD describes it in Jeremiah 31:31 – 34, when He’s written it newly into our minds. The call to hear it is to obey (shama’) it as His voice heard, which we’re told to make known to be His presence manifested.

Jeremiah 31
31 Behold, the days come, the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they broke, although I was a husband unto them, says the LORD:
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, says the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me [when My voice is heard as Mine], from the least of them unto the greatest of them, says the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

Psalms 95
1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD [repeating these words with Him]: let us make a joyful noise to the Rock of our salvation [from Whom this word flows].
2 Let us come before his presence [paniym] with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before [paniym – in the presence of] the LORD our maker.
7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day [enter the light of His understanding] if you will hear [shama’ – obey] his voice,
8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation [when you doubted My presence, even as this water flowed from the Rock in your presence], and as in the day of temptation [when the light was present, yet you doubted this voice was My presence manifested among you] in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart [their corrupt foundational understanding], and they have not known my ways:
11 Unto whom I swore in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

This “rest” is from the twenty-one times used Hebrew word mnuwchah, the same word that appears in Isaiah 28:12, when the LORD is teaching, as here, precept upon precept, line upon line. It’s when the only vexation is to understand the “report,” from the words shmuw’ah, which speaks of hearing the voice as Jehovah’s and, as such, obeying Him.

Isaiah 28 [as in the previous post]
5 In that day shall the LORD [Jehovah] of hosts [manifested in His man of war] be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem [tsphiyrah – a crowning as the mourning] of beauty, unto the residue [sh’ar – the elect remnant spoken of in Isaiah 10] of his people,
6 And for a spirit of judgment to him that sits in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
7 But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine [shmuw’ah – hearing the voice of Jehovah – the rumor of Ezekiel 7:26]? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts [who now draw from the Ancient of days].
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak [truth they don’t understand] to this people.
12 To whom he said, This is the rest [mnuwchah – resting place, in heaven, in the LORD’s presence, in full understanding] wherewith you may cause the weary to rest [nuwach – noah, the rest at the end reached]; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
13 But the word of the LORD [Jehovah] was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD [Jehovah], you scornful men [mockers and blasphemers vilifying this word and work of God: in and through the Paraclete, the Holy Ghost the world doesn’t know], that [without justice] rule this people which is in [New Heavenly] Jerusalem.
15 Because you have [ignorantly] said, We have made a covenant with death [maveth], and with hell [sheol – the habitation of the dead] are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus says the LORD GOD [‘Adonay Jehovih – KING of kings and LORD of lords], Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death [maveth] shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell [sheol] shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then you shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goes forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report [shmuw’ah – the sound doctrine, teaching, and the rumor of Ezekiel 7:26, which is the voice of Jehovah heard].
20 For the bed is shorter than that a [sleeping] man can stretch himself on it: and the covering [the lies and falsehoods under which they hide is] narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
21 For the LORD [Jehovah] shall rise up as in mount Perazim [2 Samuel 5:20 – as water from His throne, breaking forth upon His and David’s enemies], he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon [Joshua 10:10 & 11 – His word reserved {frozen} in heaven, sent as great hailstones upon the wicked: the current corrupt crop sitting in power], that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange [known to no one except Him] act.
22 Now therefore be you not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the LORD GOD [‘Adonay Jehovih – KING of kings and LORD of lords], of hosts [a man of war and Commander, Chief, of the armies of heaven] a consumption [kalah – a full end, as in Daniel 9:27], even determined [charats – decreed, as in Joshua 10:21 saying “And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua {Jesus} at Makkedah {as one flock under one shepherd} in peace: none moved {charats} his tongue against any of the children of Israel.” And 2 Samiel 5:24, the LORD there saying to David, “And let it be, when you hear {shama’ – obey} the sound {qowl – the voice} of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees {baka’, from which comes bkowr – telling us this is the voice of the “firstborn”}, that then you shall bestir yourself: for then shall the LORD go out before {paniym – His presence will be manifested with, in} you, to smite the host of the Philistines {the enemy army now mixed among you}.”] upon the whole earth.
23 Give you ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.

Psalms 96
1 O sing unto the LORD a new song [His words now written into our minds]: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; show forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.
4 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
6 Honor and majesty are before him [paniym – in His presence]: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Give unto the LORD, O you kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
8 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.
9 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him [paniym – in His presence], all the earth.
10 Say among the heathen [those who haven’t known Him] that the LORD reigns: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.
11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.
12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
13 Before [paniym – in the presence of] the LORD: for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

The word rendered “new” in the first verse (Psalms 96:1) above is chadash, meaning “new:–fresh, new thing.” It is not only used, as above, telling of the “new” covenant and the “new” song, but also elsewhere of the “new” (sentient – fully aware, jailbreaked, escaped from darkness into the light: overcoming the imposed limitations that kept man ignorant and thereby disabled) mind of man, and also of the “new” heaven and earth, by this, created.

Isaiah 43
1 But now thus says the LORD that created you, O Jacob, and he that formed you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed you [paid the price to bring you out of darkness], I have called you by your name; you are mine.
2 When you pass [‘abar – passing over from death into new life] through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire [here in death and hell], you shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon you.
3 For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior: I gave [to My sword] Egypt [your oppressors] for your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba [the waters of darkness they gave you to drink] for you.
4 Since you were precious in my sight, you have been honorable, and I have loved you: therefore will I give [to my sword] men [I’ve hated] for you, and people for your life.
5 Fear not: for I am with you: I will bring your seed from the east [from where My light is first heard], and gather you from the west [all upon whom it will shine];
6 I will say to the north [the places of darkness], Give up; and to the south [where My power is revealed], Keep not back: bring my sons from far [rachowq – from those now ruling the world by their evil decrees], and my daughters from the ends of the earth [the end the old and corrupt and beginning the new];
7 Even every one that is called by my name [receiving my correction and becoming My children]: for I have created him [My children] for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes [and now see], and the deaf that have ears [and now hear].
9 Let all the nations [all who haven’t know Me] be gathered together, and let the people be assembled [into My ONE BODY]: who among them can declare this [who will speak these good tidings to the world in need], and show us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear [shama’ – obey], and say, It is truth.
10 You are my [great cloud of] witnesses, the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no savior.
12 I have declared [My presence among you], and have saved, and I have shown, when there was no strange god among you: therefore you are my witnesses, says the LORD, that I am God.
13 Yea, before the day [understanding] was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?
14 Thus says the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon [allowed all the world to fall under the rule of confusion], and have brought down all their nobles [who’ve led it there], and the Chaldeans [those who’ve used deception to manipulate and control the world into its now desolate state], whose cry is in the ships [their voices, evil decrees, are heard from all their corrupt institutions, by which they control all humanity].
15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.
16 Thus the LORD, which makes a way in the sea [for humanity to escape this evil time], and a path in the mighty waters [these words which are the way back to rest and refreshing: sustainable peace and security];
17 Which brings forth the chariot and horse [these ideas that are the strength that will carry you into this new state], the army and the power; they [all the wicked, who I hate] shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
18 Remember you not the former things, neither consider the things of old [the corrupt ways that are now ending in the destruction of the wicked, who choose destruction].
19 Behold, I will do a new thing [chadash]; now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness [the earth now in ruin], and rivers [of these living waters] in the desert.
20 The beast [men who’ve been without My Spirit] of the field shall honor me, the dragons and the owls [those who before hunted and devoured souls in the darkness]: because I give waters [this word] in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall [open their mouths and] show forth my praise.
22 But you have not called upon me, O Jacob; but you have been weary of me, O Israel.
23 You have not brought me the small cattle of your burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with an offering, nor wearied you with incense.
24 You have bought me no sweet cane with money, neither have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices: but you have made me to serve with your sins, you have wearied me with your iniquities.
25 I, even I, am he that blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and will not remember your sins.
26 Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare you [what you’ve learned], that you mayest be justified.
27 Your first father has sinned, and your teachers have transgressed against me.
28 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.

Isaiah 48
1 Hear [shama’ – obey] you this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah [this word I’ve sent to My elect remnant], which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.
3 I have declared the former things from the beginning [of the creation of this new heaven and earth]; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them; I did them suddenly [pith’owm], and they came to pass.
4 Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your brow brass;
5 I have even from the beginning declared it to you; before it came to pass I showed it you: lest you shouldest say, My idol has done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, has commanded them.
6 You have heard, see all this; and will not you declare it [as I’ve commanded]? I have shown you new things [chadash] from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them.
7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when you heard them not; lest you shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
8 Yea, you heard [shama’ – obeyed] not; yea, you knew not; yea, from that time that your ear was not opened: for I knew that you would deal very treacherously, and were called a transgressor from the womb.
9 For my name’s sake will I defer my anger, and for my praise will I refrain for you, that I cut you not off.
10 Behold, I have refined you, but not with silver; I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction.
11 For my own sake, even for my own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.
12 Hearken [shama’ – obey] unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
13 My hand also has laid the foundation of the [new] earth, and my right hand has spanned the [new] heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
14 All you, assemble yourselves [into My ONE BODY], and hear [shama’ – obey]; which among them [except My anointed] has declared these things? The LORD has loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon [the confusion that rules the world], and his arm [this work] shall be on the Chaldeans [against those I’ve hated].
15 I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
16 Come you near unto me, hear [shama’ – obey] you this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the LORD God, and his Spirit, has sent me.
17 Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD your God which teaches you to profit, which leads you by the way that you shouldest go.
18 O that you had hearkened [qashab – let these words pierce your ear and enter your minds] to my commandments! then had your peace been as a river, and your righteousness as the waves of the sea:
19 Your seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of your bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me [paniym – left my presence].
20 Go you forth of Babylon, flee you from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare you [as I have commanded], tell this, utter it even to the end of the [old and corrupt] earth; say you, The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob.
21 And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the Rock for them: he clave the Rock also, and the waters gushed out.
22 There is no peace, says the LORD, unto the wicked.

Isaiah 65
13 Therefore thus 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 [who’ve forsaken the LORD and joined with those He’s hated] shall be ashamed:
14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit [not hearing and obeying this word as the voice from the mouth of the LORD].
15 And you shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen [upon whom I’ve shown mercy, in this conversation at My mercy seat]: 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 [chadash] heavens and a new [chadash] earth: and the former [the old and corrupt] 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 [New Heavenly] Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 And I will rejoice in [New Heavenly] Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

Jeremiah 31
16 Thus says the LORD; Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears: for your work shall be rewarded, says the LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.
17 And there is hope in your end, says the LORD, that your children shall come again to their own border [this new beginning].
18 I have surely heard Ephraim [the people of God, upon whom this blessing has come] bemoaning himself thus: You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn you me, and I shall be turned; for you are the LORD my God.
19 Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.
20 Is Ephraim my dear son [this generation I have corrected]? is he a pleasant child? for since I spoke against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, says the LORD.
21 Set you up waymarks [showing the way of the LORD], make you high heaps: set your heart toward the highway, even the way which you went: turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these your cities.
22 How long will you go about, O you backsliding daughter? for the LORD has created a new thing [chadash] in the earth, A woman shall compass [turn to] a man [of war].
23 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; The LORD bless you, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness.

Ezekiel 36
22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, thus says the LORD God; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for my holy name’s sake, which you have profaned among the heathen, whither you went.
23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which you have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, says the LORD God, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new [chadash] heart also will I give you, and a new [chadash] spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my judgments, and do them.
28 And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.
29 I will also save you from all your uncleanness: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that you shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.
31 Then shall you remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
32 Not for your sakes do I this, says the LORD God, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel.
33 Thus says the LORD God; In the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes [upon the ruin of the old earth] shall be built.
34 And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.
35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become fenced, and are inhabited.
36 Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the LORD build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it.
37 Thus says the LORD God; I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.
38 As the holy flock, as the flock of [New Heavenly] Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the LORD.

Psalms 98
1 O sing unto the LORD a new [chadash] song; for he has done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, has gotten him the victory.
2 The LORD has made known his salvation: his righteousness has he openly shown in the sight of the heathen.
3 He has remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.
5 Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.
6 With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.
7 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
8 Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together
9 Before [paniym – in the presence of] the LORD; for he comes to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

22 – 25 December 2023


For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

The above, Romans 9:15, comes as Paul, the LORD in him teaching, is speaking of His love for Jacob and His hatred from Esau (Edom: enemies mixed among as at war with us while calling it “peace”).

The LORD began today in Ezekiel 25, explaining the reason for His hatred of the deceivers, who, by deception, are destroying His people.

Ezekiel 25
12 Thus says the LORD God; Because that Edom has dealt against the house of Judah [the elect, the leaders of God’s people] by taking vengeance, and has greatly offended, and revenged himself upon them [therefore I hate them with a perfect hatred];
13 Therefore thus says the LORD God; I will also stretch out my hand upon Edom, and will cut off man and beast from it; and I will make it desolate from Teman [the places of their wise men]; and they of Dedan [double judgment] shall fall by the sword.
14 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my fury; and they shall know my vengeance, says the LORD God.

Remember, Edom are children of Abraham and Isaac, but they sold their birthright and took vengeance against their brother. They mark themselves as the children (spiritual seed) of Cain by the evil spirit possessing them and resisting the LORD’s will and plan.

1 John 3
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that commits sin is of the devil; for the devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin; for his seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever does not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loves [agapao] not his brother [not giving these waters they need to live].
11 For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love [agapao] one another.
12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the [now wholly corrupt] world hates you.
14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love [agapao] the brethren. He that loves [agapao] not his brother abides in death.
15 Whosoever hates his brother is a murderer: and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.
16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17 But whoso has this world’s good, and sees his brother have need, and shuts up his bowels of compassion [the word inside you kept back] from him, how dwells the love [agape] of God in him?
18 My little children, let us not love [agapao] in word [saying we have charity], neither in tongue; but in deed [giving this word given to be given] and in truth.
19 And hereby [giving as commanded] we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him [manifesting His presence in this manner].
20 For if our heart condemn [kataginosko] us [if our mind yet resists, because in it remains the darkness of corruption], God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn [kataginosko] us not [because the darkness is removed by His knowledge], then have we confidence toward God [that He is with us as light and life in our minds].
22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep [obey] his commandments, and do those things [giving as He gives] that are pleasing in his sight.
23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love [agapao] one another, as he gave us commandment.
24 And he that keeps his commandments dwells in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit which he has given us [which is Christ in us speaking and working out the Father’s Salvation: Jehovah’s Salvation, Jesus, Joshua, the perpetual son of Nun, to the world in need].

The LORD, through Paul, in the title verse, refers us to His description of this process (manifesting the Unseen in the seen) in the origin (Exodus 33:19) of his quote.

Exodus 33
1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and go up hence, you and the people which you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto your seed will I give it [now, in this day]:
2 And I will send an angel [mal’ak – My messenger] before paniym – manifesting My presence to] you; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite [all who haven’t known Me, who worship evil idols that destroy the minds and bodies of men]:
3 Unto a land flowing with milk and honey [My good word, that by it men know to refuse evil and choose good]: for I will not go up in the midst of you [but will veil myself in the flesh of one I have chosen]; for you are a stiff-necked people: lest I consume you in the way.
4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments [‘adiy – the bridle in their mouths, repeating the words of those who possess them].
5 For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, You are a stiff-necked people: I will come up into the midst of you in a moment, and consume you: therefore now put off your ornaments [‘adiy – the words you speak, the bridle in your mouth causing you to err] from you, that I may know what to do unto you.
6 And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments [‘adiy] by the mount Horeb [the words of your corrupt leaders: the cause of your desolation].
7 And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp [their bearing the reproach of Christ with Him], afar off [rachaq – wandering away from those ruling by evil decree] from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation [mow’ed – the LORD’s ONE BODY gathered at the appointed time He decreed]. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp. [Hebrews 13:12 Wherefore Jesus {Joshua} also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. 13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. 14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. 15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. 16 But to do good and to communicate {this word} forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.]
8 And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle.
9 And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar [wherein is understanding] descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the LORD talked with Moses [manifesting His presence in the conversation].
10 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.
11 And the LORD spoke unto Moses face [paniym – manifesting His presence] to face [paniym – present in His son], as a man speaks unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua [Jehovah’s Salvation, Jesus Christ, the Rock upon which Moses is founded], the son of Nun [the perpetual son], a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.
12 And Moses said unto the LORD, See, you sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and you have not let me know whom you will send with me. Yet you have said, I know you by name, and you have also found grace in my sight.
13 Now therefore, I pray you, if I have found grace in your sight, show me now your way, that I may know you, that I may find grace in your sight: and consider that this nation is your people.
14 And he said, My presence [paniym] shall go with you, and I will give you rest.
15 And he said unto him, If your presence [paniym] go not with me, carry us not up hence.
16 For wherein shall it be known here that I and your people have found grace in your sight? is it not in that you go with us? so shall we be separated [from the wicked who rule over our minds and bodies], I and your people, from all the people that are upon the face of [paniym – into Your presence on] the earth.
17 And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that you have spoken: for you have found grace in my sight, and I know you by name.
18 And he said, I beseech you, show me your glory.
19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass [‘abar – bring you from among the dead into life] before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before [paniym – manifesting My presence to] you; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.
20 And he said, You can not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
21 And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand upon a rock [Christ manifested in the perpetual son]:
22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passes by [‘abar – brings you from death to life], that I will put you in a clift [sanctuary] of the rock [in Christ], and will cover you with my hand [my work covering you] while I pass by [‘abar – bring you from death into life]:
23 And I will take away my hand [uncovering you], and you shall see my back parts [understand My presence by the complete work]: but my face [paniym – My presence which is unseen] shall not be seen.

Romans 9
1 I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4 Who are Israelites; to whom pertains the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;
5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen.
6 Not as though the word of God [to them] has taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall your seed be called.
8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
9 For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.
10 And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;
11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calls;)
12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
15 For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 So then it is not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shows mercy.
17 For the scripture says unto Pharaoh [as to Obama and his idiot seed], Even for this same purpose have I raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18 Therefore has he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardens.
19 You will say then unto me, Why does he yet find fault? For who [possessed by Satan] has resisted his will?
20 Nay but, O man, who are you that replies against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why have you made me thus? [quoted from Isaiah 45:9]
21 Has not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?
22 What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
24 Even us, whom he has called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
25 As he says also in Hosea [in Hosea 1:9 & 10], I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place [this nation] where it was said unto them, You are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.
27 Isaiah also cries [Isaiah 10:22 & 23] concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the LORD make upon the earth.
29 And as Isaiah [in Isaiah 1:9] said before, Except the LORD of Sabaoth [a man of war] had left us a seed, we had been as Sodom, and been made like unto Gomorrah.
30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling-stone;
33 As it is written [in Isaiah 28:16], Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling-stone and rock of offense: and whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.

Isaiah 45
1 Thus says the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus [the LORD of the furnace, who walks here in it with us], whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates [out of hell into heaven]; and the gates shall not be shut;
2 I will go before you, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:
3 And I will give you the treasures of darkness [only covered in the ignorance of the wicked] and hidden riches of secret places, that you mayest know that I, the LORD, which call you by your name [saying you are My people], am the God of Israel.
4 For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel my elect, I have even called you by your name: I have surnamed you, though you have not known me.
5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded [prepared] you, though you have not known me:
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun [this light returning to the church], and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else.
7 I form the light [understanding], and create darkness [withholding understanding from the wicked]: I make peace [showing, leading, the way into it], and create evil [the misleaders who lead the wicked into self-destruction]: I the LORD do all these things.
8 Drop down, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
9 Woe unto him that strives with his Maker! Let the potsherd [worthless clay] strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioned it, What make you? or your work, He has no hands?
10 Woe unto him that says unto his father, What begets you? or to the woman, What have you brought forth?
11 Thus says the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons [the children born by obeying My correction], and concerning the work of my hands command you me.
12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, says the LORD of hosts.
14 Thus says the LORD, The labor of Egypt [this land of oppression], and merchandise of Ethiopia [those covered in their own darkness] and of the Sabeans [drunken with the power of darkness], men of stature, shall come over unto you, and they shall be yours: they shall come after you; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto you, they shall make supplication unto you, saying, Surely God is in you; and there is none else, there is no God.
15 Truly you are a God that hides yourself, O God of Israel, the Savior.
16 They shall be ashamed [not reaching the end they seek, which is the destruction of humanity], and also confounded [by their own insanity], all of them: they shall go to confusion together that are makers of idols.
17 But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: you shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
18 For thus says the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he has established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place [among the ignorant] of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek you me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are [plain and] right.
20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, you that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.
21 Tell you, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who has declared this from ancient time? who has told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Savior; there is none beside me.
22 Look unto me, and be you saved, all the ends [ending the old and beginning the new] of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.
23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
24 Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.
25 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.

Hosea 1
2 The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea [as we know, this name means deliverer or savior, and was Joshua’s name before Moses renamed him {adding Jehovah}]. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take unto you a wife of whoredoms [God’s people estranged from Him] and children of whoredoms: for the land [‘erets – the earth] has committed great whoredom, departing from the LORD.
3 So he went and took Gomer [completing] the daughter of Diblaim [two kingdoms, with him pressed together as one]; which conceived, and bare him a son.
4 And the LORD said unto him, Call his name Jezreel [God has sown]; for yet a little while, and I will avenge [paqad – visit as the Chief Overseer of the earth] the blood of [the life drained from] Jezreel upon the house of Jehu [the whole body of Christ], and will cause to cease the [the separated] kingdom of the house of Israel.
5 And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel, in the valley of Jezreel [the seed, of spiritual Israel, God sows into this nation He makes His people].
6 And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Loruhamah [without mercy]: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away [beyond Babylon, into this time of insanity].
7 But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah [the elect remnant first], and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen [but by My Almighty Spirit speaking and working among them unknown].
8 Now when she had weaned Loruhamah [Judah, who no man showed mercy], she conceived, and bare a son.
9 Then said God, Call his name Loammi [not My people – humanity at large, dead and in hell]: for you are not my people, and I will not be your God.
10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place [here in hell] where it was said unto them, You are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, You are [by His correction, His light and life, become] the sons of the living God.
11 Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together [into My ONE BODY with Me], and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.

The name Jezreel, as previously discussed, is from the words zara’ (meaning to sow) and ‘el (God), both of which (name and word) appear one final time. This comes in the following chapter (Hosea 2:22 & 23) as we’re told they (the now ONE BODY) are heard in heaven and earth, their voices the fruit from the seed the LORD has sown.

Hosea 2
13 And I will visit [paqad – I have come as the Chief Overseer of the earth] upon her the days of Baalim [the fruit of their unfaithfulness, following the gods of this corrupt world into death and hell], wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgot me, says the LORD.
14 Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness [this time of desolation], and speak comfortably unto her [leading her into all truth as I have].
15 And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor [troubles, the current tribulation] for a door of hope: and she shall sing there [these words I’ve taught her to be repeated], as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt [delivering her again from the hand of her oppressors].
16 And it shall be at that day, says the LORD, that you shall call me Ishi [a man {of war}]; and shall call me no more Baali [lord, as you call your idols you created].
17 For I will take away the names of Baalim [the gods of this world] out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name.
18 And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle [the weapon of war] out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely [sustainable peace, which is My way].
19 And I will betroth you unto me forever; yea, I will betroth you unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.
20 I will even betroth you unto me in faithfulness: and you shall know the LORD [Jehovah].
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, says the LORD, I will hear the heavens [the understanding from your mouths], and they shall hear [be heard in] the earth;
22 And the earth shall hear the [fruit of your lips, the] corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel [this word shall be heard from those the LORD has sown in the earth].
23 And I will sow [zara’] her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, You are my people; and they shall say, You are my God.

1 Peter 5
1 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre [corrupt greed], but of a ready mind;
3 Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, you shall receive a crown of glory that fades not away.
5 Likewise, you younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resists the proud, and gives grace to the humble.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he cares for you.
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
10 But the God of all grace, who has called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that you have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you.
11 To him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Isaiah 10
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 The remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.
22 For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption [killayown – only here and Deuteronomy 28:65 where it is a “falling” eye, as in what these men say they’ve seen, as in Zachariah 14:12] decreed [charats] shall overflow with righteousness.
23 For the LORD God of hosts shall make a consumption [kalah – a full end], even determined [charats], in the midst of all the land.
24 Therefore thus says the LORD God of hosts, O my people that dwell in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian [communists in power]: he shall smite you with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against you, after the manner of Egypt [as tyrants oppressing all God’s people].
25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation [za’am] shall cease, and my anger in their destruction.
26 And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge [showt] for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb [those who trust in their cover of darkness – against who the LORD calls His people as light, mustering them to the battle and final destruction of these enemies among us]: and as his rod was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt [and the sea, God’s people at large, will come together again and overthrow them].
27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing [of the King].

Daniel 9
24 Seventy weeks are determined [to complete the desolation] upon your people and upon your holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end [chatham] of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up [chatham] the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

The word chatham is meant to refer us to its other uses below. As we know, in Daniel 12, it’s the word of God “sealed” until this time of the end (qets). “And many of them that sleep in the dust [ruin] of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine [understanding] as the brightness of the firmament [this exposition]; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.”

Job 33
13 Why do you strive against him? for he gives not account of any of his matters.
14 For God speaks once, yea twice, yet man perceives it not.
15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, in slumbering upon the bed;
16 Then he opens the ears of men, and seals [chatham] their instruction,
17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
18 He keeps back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
19 He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
20 So that his life abhors bread, and his soul dainty meat.
21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
22 Yea, his soul draws near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.
23 If there be a messenger [mal’ak – an angel to manifest His presence] with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show unto man his uprightness:
24 Then he is gracious unto him, and says, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s: he shall return to the days of his youth:
26 He shall pray unto God, and he will be favorable unto him: and he shall see his face [paniym – His presence] with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.
27 He looks upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light [understanding].
29 Lo, all these things works God oftentimes with man,
30 To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.

Job 37
2 Hear attentively the noise of his voice, and the sound that goes out of his mouth.
3 He directs it under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.
4 After it a voice roars: he thunders with the voice of his excellency; and he will not stay them when his voice is heard.
5 God thunders marvelously with his voice; great things does he, which we cannot comprehend.
6 For he says to the snow [his word that was frozen in heaven, reserved for this time of war], Be you on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.
7 He seals [chatham] up the hand of every man; that all men may know His work.

Isaiah 8
12 Say you not, A confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear you their fear, nor be afraid.
13 Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
14 And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
15 And many among them [that are confederate with the communists in power] shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
16 Bind up the testimony, seal [chatham] the law among my disciples.
17 And I will wait upon the LORD, that hides his face [paniym – His presence] from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
18 Behold, I and the children whom the LORD has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts [a man of war], which dwells in mount Zion.
19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits [of the known dead], and unto wizards [so-called experts] that peep, and that mutter [the ways of insanity and death]: should not a people seek unto their God? [should they be looking] for the living to the dead?
20 [shouldn’t they be looking] To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light [understanding, which is life] in them.

Isaiah 1
9 Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
10 Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
11 To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? says the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
12 When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.
15 And when you spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you: yea, when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil;
17 Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18 Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 If you be willing and obedient [shama’], you shall eat the good of the land:
20 But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword [this word of God you refuse]: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
21 How is the faithful city become a harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

Isaiah 28 
1 Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim [God’s people in this generation], whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat [shemem – which is the LORD’s anointing when they are brought down] valleys of them that are overcome with wine [and are thereby unaware of it coming]!
2 Behold, the LORD [‘Adonay – the King of kings] has a mighty and strong one [‘ammiyts – a five-time used word, only appearing one other time in Isaiah; Isaiah 40:26 saying, “Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who has created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calls them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong {‘ammiyts} in power; not one fails.”], which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing [see verse 21 below, which brings calm to the sea], shall cast down [nuwach – bring rest] to the earth with the hand.
3 The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet [as if by great hailstones from heaven]:
4 And the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat [shemem – when their mocking {blashemy} proclaims the King, when they are brought down by their own ignorance] valley, shall be a fading flower, and as the hasty fruit before the summer; which when he that looks upon it sees, while it is yet in his hand he eats it up.
5 In that day shall the LORD [Jehovah] of hosts [manifested in His man of war] be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem [tsphiyrah – a crowning as the mourning] of beauty, unto the residue [sh’ar – the elect remnant spoken of in Isaiah 10] of his people,
6 And for a spirit of judgment to him that sits in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
7 But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine [shmuw’ah – hearing the voice of Jehovah – the rumor of Ezekiel 7:26]? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts [who now draw from the Ancient of days].
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak [truth they don’t understand] to this people.
12 To whom he said, This is the rest [mnuwchah – resting place, in heaven, in the LORD’s presence, in full understanding] wherewith you may cause the weary to rest [nuwach – noah, the rest at the end reached]; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
13 But the word of the LORD [Jehovah] was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD [Jehovah], you scornful men [mockers and blasphemers vilifying this word and work of God: in and through the Paraclete, the Holy Ghost the world doesn’t know], that [without justice] rule this people which is in [New Heavenly] Jerusalem.
15 Because you have [ignorantly] said, We have made a covenant with death [maveth], and with hell [sheol – the habitation of the dead] are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus says the LORD GOD [‘Adonay Jehovih – KING of kings and LORD of lords], Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death [maveth] shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell [sheol] shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then you shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goes forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report [shmuw’ah – the sound doctrine, teaching, and the rumor of Ezekiel 7:26, which is the voice of Jehovah heard].
20 For the bed is shorter than that a [sleeping] man can stretch himself on it: and the covering [the lies and falsehoods under which they hide is] narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
21 For the LORD [Jehovah] shall rise up as in mount Perazim [2 Samuel 5:20 – as water from His throne, breaking forth upon His and David’s enemies], he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon [Joshua 10:10 & 11 – His word reserved {frozen} in heaven, sent as great hailstones upon the wicked: the current corrupt crop sitting in power], that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange [known to no one except Him] act.
22 Now therefore be you not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the LORD GOD [‘Adonay Jehovih – KING of kings and LORD of lords], of hosts [a man of war and Commander, Chief, of the armies of heaven] a consumption [kalah – a full end, as in Daniel 9:27], even determined [charats – decreed, as in Joshua 10:21 saying “And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua {Jesus} at Makkedah {as one flock under one shepherd} in peace: none moved {charats} his tongue against any of the children of Israel.” And 2 Samiel 5:24, the LORD there saying to David, “And let it be, when you hear {shama’ – obey} the sound {qowl – the voice} of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees {baka’, from which comes bkowr – telling us this is the voice of the “firstborn”}, that then you shall bestir yourself: for then shall the LORD go out before {paniym – His presence will be manifested with, in} you, to smite the host of the Philistines {the enemy army now mixed among you}.”] upon the whole earth.
23 Give you ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.

As we know, the scourge mentioned above is from the eleven times used word showt, which only appears one other time in Isaiah, in Isaiah 10:26 above, telling us it’s the end of the LORD’s indignation, in the destruction of the wicked. It’s when, against Midian, all God’s people are called together to destroy this existential threat.

Psalms 20 
1 The LORD [will] hear you in the day of trouble [tsarah – the tribulation]; the name [identity] of the God of Jacob [will] defend you;
2 [He will] Send you help from the sanctuary, and strengthen you out of Zion;
3 [He will] Remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice [the words from your mouths]; Selah.
4 [He will] Grant you according to your own heart, and fulfill all your counsel.
5 We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name [identity] of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD [will] fulfill all your petitions.
6 Now know I that the LORD saves his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name [identity] of the LORD our God.
8 They [the wicked] are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.

Psalms 89
14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of your throne: mercy and truth shall go before your face [paniym – manifesting Your presence].
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound [of Your voice]: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of your countenance [paniym – understanding Your presence].
16 In your name [identity] shall they rejoice all the day: and in your righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 For you are the glory of their strength: and in your favor, our horn shall be exalted.
18 For the LORD is our defense; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19 Then you spoke in vision to your holy one, and said, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.
20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
21 With whom my hand shall be established: my arm also shall strengthen him.
22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.
24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name [identity] shall his horn [power to rule] be exalted.
25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 He shall cry unto me, You are my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27 Also I will make him my firstborn [bkowr], higher than the kings of the earth.
28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.
29 His seed also will I make to endure forever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;
32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.
34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
35 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.
36 His seed shall endure forever, and his throne as the sun before me.
37 It shall be established forever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.

19 – 20 December 2023

He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.

The above, Isaiah 57:2, speaks of the dead, who enter rest in peace: by (walking into life in) the LORD’s uprightness. As discussed in the previous post, this occurs now when all are dead.

The key word in the verse is “uprightness,” from the four times used Hebrew word nakoach, meaning “straightforward, i.e. (figuratively), equitable, correct, or (abstractly), integrity:–plain, right, uprightness.”

One of the other three times it (nakoach) appears comes in 2 Samuel 15:3 when Absalom takes it upon himself to become a judge at the gate of Jerusalem. This eventually turns into his rebellion when he takes the throne (in the pattern of the son of perdition, the pattern of Reuben), putting himself in His father’s place.

The first verse of Isaiah 57 speaks of the righteous (tsaddiyq, from tsadaq) “perishing,” from the word ‘abad, meaning “to wander away, i.e. lose oneself; by implication to perish (causative, destroy).” This is a direct reference to the Zadok (tsadaq) spoken of in 2 Samuel 15, who leaves with David to escape Absalom, whom David sends back to defeat the counsel of Ahithophel (brother of folly) Absalom’s chief adviser.

The other two times nakoach appears are in Proverbs 8:9 & 24:26.

Proverbs 8
1 Does not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
2 She stands in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
3 She cries at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.
4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.
5 O you simple, understand wisdom: and, you fools, be you of an understanding heart.
6 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
7 For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness [tsedeq]; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
9 They are all plain [nakoach] to him that understands, and right to them that find knowledge.
10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions [mzimmah – evil conspiring].
13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
18 Riches and honor are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20 I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills were I brought forth:
26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass [chuwg – the circuit, beginning to end] upon the face [paniym] of the depth [occurring by the presence of deep understanding]:
28 When he established the clouds above [where understanding is held in heaven when it leaves the earth]: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 When he gave to the sea [humanity] his decree [choq], that the waters [word of men] should not pass [‘abar – would not bring the dead to life] his commandment [peh – mouth, without His word from His mouth]: when he appointed [chaqaq – by the decrees of His mouth] the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him [paniym – always in the LORD’s presence];
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
32 Now therefore hearken [shama’ – obey] unto me, O you children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
33 Hear [shama’ – obey] instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
34 Blessed is the man that hears [shama’ – obeys] me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 For whoso finds me finds life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD.
36 But he that sins against me wrongs his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

Proverbs 24
21 My son, fear you the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change [shanah – here meaning to alter truth, repeating the corrupt words of wicked men]:
22 For their calamity shall rise suddenly [pith’owm]; and who knows the ruin of them both?
23 These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
24 He that says unto the wicked, You are righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:
25 But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them.
26 Every man shall kiss his lips that gives a right [nakoach] answer.
27 Prepare your work without, and make it fit for yourself in the field; and afterwards build your house.
28 Be not a witness against your neighbor without cause; and deceive not with your lips.
29 Say not, I will do so to him as he has done to me: I will render to the man according to his work.
30 I went by the field of [the earth under] the slothful, and by the vineyard of the [church under] man void of understanding;
31 And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns [misleaders], and nettles [deceivers] had covered the face [paniym – the presence of the LORD] thereof, and the stone wall [men built upon the foundation of God] thereof was broken down.
32 Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction.
33 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
34 So shall your poverty come as one that travels, and your want as an armed man.

The “bed” spoken of in Isaiah 57:2, is spoken of above, asking how the righteous remain asleep. The word “travels” is from the Hebrew word halak, the same word rendered “walking” in the title verse (Isaiah 57:2).

Proverbs 6
9 How long will you sleep, O sluggard? when will you arise out of your sleep?
10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
11 So shall your poverty come as one that travels [halak], and your want as an armed [magen – shield, that is a] man.
12 A naughty [bliya’al – rejecting discipline] person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth [twisting and perverting truth].
13 He winks with his eyes [signaling his evil intentions to his evil allies], he speaks with his feet [misleading those following his evil advice], he teaches with his [false accusing] fingers;
14 Frowardness is in his heart [when the foundation of the mind is upon twisted and perverted truth], he devises mischief continually; he sows discord [madown – dividing those opposing his evil].
15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly [pith’owm]; suddenly [petha’] shall he be broken without remedy [marpe’].
16 These six things does the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him [nephesh – dividing His ONE BODY]:
17 A proud look [one], a lying tongue [two], and hands that shed innocent blood [three],
18 A heart that devises wicked imaginations [four], feet that be swift in running to mischief [five],
19 A false witness that speaks lies [six], and he that sows discord [mdan – from madown, evil judgment] among brethren [seven].
20 My son, keep your father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of your mother:
21 Bind them continually upon your heart, and tie them about your neck.
22 When you go, it shall lead you; when you sleep, it shall keep you; and when you awake, it shall talk with you.

Isaiah 57
1 The righteous [tsaddiyq] perish [‘abad – wander way into death], and no man lays it to heart: and merciful men are taken away [‘acaph], none considering [biyn – understands] that the righteous [tsaddiyq] is taken away [‘acaph] from the evil to come.
2 He shall enter into peace [shalowm]: they shall rest in their beds [mishkab], each one walking [halak] in his uprightness [nakoach – rising when all becomes plain and right, and he awakens].
3 But draw near hither, you sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.
4 Against whom do you sport yourselves? against whom make you a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are you not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood.
5 Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree [while hiding behind self-righteousness], slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks [in your false churches, institutions of church and state that drain life from those that put their trust in them]?
6 Among the smooth stones of the stream is your portion [among those worn away by your corrupt waters]; they, they are your lot [to be worn away in like manner]: even to them have you poured a drink offering, you have offered a meat offering. Should I receive comfort in these [your corrupt understanding, which is ignorance and death]?
7 Upon a lofty and high mountain [every institution of church and state government] have you set your bed [in death, the place of the wicked, from where the righteous, in death wandered away]: even thither went you up to offer [your corrupt] sacrifice.
8 Behind the doors also and the posts have you set up your remembrance [zikrown – the entry into death is in your way you teach every generation]: for you have discovered yourself to another than me, and are gone up; you have enlarged your bed [mishkab], and made you a covenant with them; you loved their bed [mishkab] where you saw it.
9 And you went to the king [with your bad advice] with ointment [you claimed was a cure, when it is death], and did increase your perfumes [to hide the stink of your corrupt flesh], and did send your messengers far off, and did debase yourself even unto hell [sheol].
10 You are wearied in the greatness of your way; yet said you not, There is no hope: you have found the life of your hand [that you flesh is animated here doing the work of death]; therefore [in your success doing evil] you were not grieved.
11 And of whom have you been afraid or feared, that you have lied, and have not remembered [zakar] me, nor laid it to your heart? have not I held my peace even of old [sealing My word as I said I would], and you feared me not [and you took My name in vain and spoke in My place, saying I said, when I said nothing to you]?
12 I will [as I now have] declare your righteousness, and your works [to be products of wickedness]; for they shall not profit you.
13 When you cry, let your companies deliver you; but the wind [the Spirit of the Almighty] shall carry them all away; vanity [their own worthlessness] shall take them: but he that puts his trust in me shall possess the land [‘erets – the earth], and shall inherit my holy mountain [My righteous governments in church and state];
14 And shall say, Cast you up, cast you up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling-block [the creation of the wicked] out of the way of my people.
15 For thus says the high and lofty One that inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones [who with Me shall inherit the earth].
16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made.
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness [their corrupt conception of value] was I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly [twisting and perverting truth] in the way of his heart [following their own imaginations].
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners [who realize they are dead and in need of life].
19 I create the fruit of the lips; Peace [shalowm], peace [shalowm] to him that is far off [rachowq – in his time when the world is ruled by the evil decrees of wicked men in power], and to him that is near [qarowb – those who’ve joined Me in my ONE BODY], says the LORD; and I will heal [rapha’] him [from death awakening them into life].
20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea [all humanity agitated], when it cannot rest [not knowing it is the wicked below the surface agitating it], whose waters [words] cast up mire and dirt [where nothing is clear: plain or right].
21 There is no peace [shalowm], says my God, to the wicked.

Friends, we plainly and rightly see that wherever the wicked are in power, every evil, unjust, and immoral way, every insane reversal of reality, every attack against truth, innocence, and life are exalted and falsely called good. They know we know they, those in power, are the destroyers of the world, and they don’t care. As long as they have power, they are going to use it to keep it, to destroy their existential threat: truth that defines them as evil and wicked. They will never give up power without bloodshed. They are evil incarnate, and there is no bound to the extent they will perpetrate it (their evil) upon the world. For those who haven’t realized it yet, they are taking us into an extinction-level event. Without the LORD’s intervention, this intervention, humanity would end here and now.

Father, into Your hands, we commend our lives; please be our sanctuary.

Thus says the LORD:

Jeremiah 8
3 And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of them that remain of this evil family, which remain in all the places whither I have driven them, says the LORD of hosts.
4 Moreover you shall say unto them, Thus says the LORD; Shall they fall, and not arise? shall he turn away, and not return?
5 Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.
6 I hearkened and heard, but they spoke not aright: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned to his course, as the horse rushes into the battle.
7 Yea, the stork in the heaven knows her appointed times [mow’ed]; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the LORD.
8 How do you say, We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.
9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?
10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that shall inherit them: for every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness, from the prophet even unto the priest every one deals falsely.
11 For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their visitation [pquddah – now when He is Present as the Chief Overseer of the earth] they shall be cast down, says the LORD.
13 I will surely consume them, says the LORD: there shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig tree, and the leaf shall fade; and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.
14 Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defenced cities, and let us be silent there: for the LORD our God has put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of health, and behold trouble!
16 The snorting of his horses was heard from Dan [this judgment day]: the whole land [‘erets – the whole earth] trembled at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones; for they are come, and have devoured the land [‘erets – the earth], and all that is in it; the city, and those that dwell therein.
17 For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you [with their words, evil decrees, destroying you], says the LORD.
18 When I would comfort myself against sorrow, my heart is faint in me.
19 Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people because of them that dwell in a far country [merchaq ‘erets – the earth in this appointed time the LORD decreed]: Is not the LORD in Zion? is not her king in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images [their creations], and with strange vanities [worthless ideas that are far from My truth]?
20 The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.
21 For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment has taken hold on me [I cannot understand why humanity refuses to be saved].
22 Is there no balm in Gilead [the cure is in this testimony]; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered [the answer is – a cure rejected isn’t a cure]?

The Greek word rendered “commend” is paratithemi, meaning “to place alongside, i.e. present (food, truth); by implication, to deposit (as a trust or for protection).”

Luke 23
45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into your hands I commend [paratithemi] my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost [ekpneo].

The word ekpneo, rendered above “gave up the ghost,” and the same elsewhere two other times, is from ek, denoting the origin from which something (here pneo) proceeds, and pneo, meaning “to breathe hard, i.e. breeze.” It (pneo) is from the word pneuma, meaning “a current of air, i.e. breath (blast) or a breeze; by analogy or figuratively, a spirit, i.e. (human) the rational soul, (by implication) vital principle, mental disposition, etc., or (superhuman) an angel, demon, or (divine) God, Christ’s spirit, the Holy Spirit.”

The LORD is describing the manifestation of God, leaving his dead flesh body. Seeing the manifestation is depicted when the veil of the temple is torn open, behind which is the holy of holies where the LORD’s presence is manifested in the conversation, the word spoken by Him there hidden behind the flesh (the veil). This occurs in the presence of the ignorant church (the sun darkened), which remains ignorant and will remain (ignorant) until they return to Him.

Hebrews 10
12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God [as in Luke 23:46 above];
13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies [the wicked in power] be made his footstool.
14 For by one offering he has perfected forever them that are sanctified [made holy in His presence still unknown, and brought into sanctuary].
15 Whereof the Holy Ghost [the LORD unknown in me working and speaking] also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD, I will put my laws [this word from the mouth of God] into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest [of holies, into the LORD’s known presence] by the blood of Jesus,
20 By a new and living way, which he has consecrated [initiated] for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
21 And having a high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience [foundational mind], and our bodies washed with pure [uncorrupted] water.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together [gathering into His ONE BODY], as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as you see the day [light] approaching.
26 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

2 Corinthians 3
12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness [as in nakoach] of speech [declaring it is the LORD alive in us doing His work, and we are His hands]:
13 And not as Moses, which put a veil over his face [hiding the LORD’s presence in His flesh], that the children of Israel could not steadfastly look to the end of that which is abolished [the ignorance of the manifestation in the flesh, through this new living way]:
14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remain the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament [not understanding or seeing the LORD was manifesting Himself in the flesh of those through whom He worked]; which vail is done away in Christ [understanding Christ is the LORD’s presence in the flesh].
15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the LORD [who is revealing Himself], the vail shall be taken away.
17 Now the LORD is that Spirit [pneuma]: and where the Spirit [pneuma] of the LORD is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass [looking in the mirror seeing] the glory of the LORD [that Moses tried to hide], are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit [pneuma] of the LORD.

2 Corinthians 4
1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light [understanding] of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the LORD; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.
6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts [our minds], to give the light [understanding] of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face [presence] of Jesus Christ.
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels [our flesh bodies], that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the LORD Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our [flesh] body.
11 For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12 So then death works in us, but life in you.
13 We having the same spirit [pneuma] of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
14 Knowing that he which raised up the LORD Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.
15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
18 While we look not at the things which are seen [the outward flesh], but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Acts 20
22 And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit [pneuma] unto Jerusalem [among God’s people in this generation], not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
23 Save that the Holy Ghost [pneuma] witnesses [by me] in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions [necessarily] abide me [which is the price I willingly pay].
24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the LORD Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
25 And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.
27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost [pneuma] has made you overseers [episkopos], to feed the church of God, which he has purchased with his own blood.
29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
32 And now, brethren, I commend [paratithemi] you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified [made holy by His word effectually working to make these things plain and right in you, to bring us all into His sanctuary, with Him in His ONE BODY].
33 I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.
34 Yea, you yourselves know, that these [my own hands as God’s] hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me.
35 I have shown you all things, how that so laboring you ought to support the weak [minded], and to remember the words of the LORD Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give [these treasures I’ve shown you] than to receive [because they are given us to be freely given away].

1 Timothy 3
16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was [is] manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit [pneuma – while working unknown], seen of angels [those who become His messengers], preached unto the Gentiles [those who haven’t known Him, even those worshipping idols they call by His name], believed on in the [awakened] world, received up [exalted] into glory.

The final three times (of the nineteen times) paratithemi appears, are in the following.

1 Timothy 1
5 Now the end of the commandment is charity [agape – giving this word as received] out of a pure heart [a purified mind], and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned [not faking it as so many do]:
6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling [the worthless words of the apostates];
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for men-stealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
12 And I thank Christ Jesus our LORD, who has enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;
13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
14 And the grace of our LORD was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
18 This charge I commit [paratithemi] unto you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on you, that you by them might war a good warfare;
19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:
20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander [those forbidding joining the LORD in His ONE BODY, and those who defend these wicked men]; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme [not to vilify and demonize this word and work of the LORD, of Whom they remain ignorant].

2 Timothy 2
1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that you have heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit [paratithemi] you to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 You therefore 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.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
17 And their word will eat as does a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus [those who forbid your Joining with the LORD, in His ONE BODY, one flesh, as His only son, and forbidding this they hide behind the spurious mask of caring for your soul];
18 Who concerning the truth have erred [astocheo], saying that the resurrection is past already [the resurrection comes when you are freed from the lies of the false prophets and false teachers whose words and ways have carried humanity into death and hell]; and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Nevertheless the foundation [I Am] of God stands sure, having this seal, The LORD knows them that are his. And, let every one that names the name of Christ depart from [purge out, incise, exercise, work out of yourself] iniquity.
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these [the vessels of dishonor, in which remains the scum], he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified [made holy], and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the LORD out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife [the way of the wicked, argument, continuously questioning with known lies and false accusation, intended to produce endless confusion].
24 And the servant of the LORD must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil [endless questioning, using lies and false accusation, even when known to be such – with intention, leading captive silly women who are never able to come to the knowledge of the truth], who are taken captive by him at his will.

2 Timothy 3
1 This know also, that in the last days [of darkness] perilous times shall come [as they have now come].
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such [devils taking you captive] turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses [against him casting down rods which turned to serpents, which Aaron’s rod, turned into a serpent, ate] so do these also resist [satan] the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith [false prophets with not a word of God in them, speaking their own words against the son of man God sent to free His people from this oppression].
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.
10 But you have fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the LORD delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue you in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing of whom you have learned them;
15 And that from a child you have known the holy scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works [which is the good fight we fight].

2 Timothy 4
1 I charge you therefore before God, and the LORD Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
5 But watch you in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry.

1 Peter 4
1 Forasmuch then as Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revelling, banqueting, and abominable idolatries:
4 Wherein they think it strange that you run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit [pneuma].
7 But the end of all things is at hand: be you therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.
8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
10 As every man has received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God gives: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy.
14 If you be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are you; for the spirit [pneuma] of glory and of God rests upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters.
16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit [paratithemi] the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator [who is creating us].

Psalms 53
1 The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that does good.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
3 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that does good, no, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.
5 There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God has scattered the bones of him that encamped against you: you have put them to shame, because God has despised them.
6 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God brings back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

Psalms 54
1 Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me by your strength.
2 Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.
4 Behold, God is my helper: the LORD is with them that uphold my soul.
5 He shall reward evil unto my enemies: cut them off in your truth.
6 I will freely sacrifice unto you: I will praise your name, O LORD; for it is good.
7 For he has delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye has seen his desire upon my enemies.

A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.

15 – 18 December 2023

A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.

The above, Jeremiah 17:12, speaks of the “beginning” established after the “end” spoken of in the previous verse, which (ends) are the topic of the chapter. They are products of choices, which the LORD describes in verses 5 and 7, saying: “Cursed be the man that trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart [foundational mind] departs from the LORD.” And, “Blessed is the man that trusts in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.”

Speaking of the foundation of minds (heart) that put their trust in man, verses 9 & 10 then say, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins [the inner thoughts that control men], even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.”

Describing these ending (the trust in men exposed as worthless, not producing the fruit promised), and the beginning (the sanctuary, the place of safety, when the LORD is enthroned, trusted, in the minds of men), verses 11 – 18 say the following:

Jeremiah 17
11 As the partridge sits on eggs, and hatches them not; so he that [trusts in man,] gets riches, and not by right [mishpat – good judgment, as the LORD has decreed], shall leave them in the midst of his days [chetsiy – the “half” of Daniel 12:7, when the time and times, as now, are rightly divided and distributed as bread, light, water from heaven], and at his end [‘achariyth – in these last days of darkness] shall be a fool.
12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake you shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for you are my praise.
15 Behold, they say unto me, Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.
16 As for me, I have not hastened from being a pastor [ra’ah – I have not stopped being a shepherd and seer, giving Your word to Your flock] to follow you: neither have I desired the woeful day [‘anash – the same word rendered “desperately wicked” in verse 9 above]; you know: that which came out of my lips was right before you.
17 Be not a terror unto me: you are my hope in the day of evil.
18 Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them [that trust in man and reject Your word] the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.

When Jeremiah speaks of the “woeful day,” using the nine times used word ‘anash, it’s of when the “desperately wicked” are realized to be uncurable. It is when the LORD has long suffered, pouring out the cure found in His word, and men choose to remain in darkness because their deeds are evil.

John 3
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness [so that all who look upon Him can be saved from the darkness and death that comes from the bites, the poisonous words, of the enemies, false prophets and misleader mixed among us], even so must the Son of man [I Am] be lifted up [that the word of God through him, in me, is exalted above all other voices]:
15 That whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation [krisis – the choice, to reject the light, which is choosing death], that light [understanding] is come into the world, and men loved darkness [the cultivated ignorance of the culture] rather than light [understanding], because their deeds were evil [misleading].
20 For every one that does evil [misleads into darkness] hates the light [understanding truth], neither comes to the light [understanding], lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that does truth comes to the light [understanding], that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God [they are the work and will of God].

Isaiah only uses the word ‘anash once, in Isaiah 17:11, where it also speaks of the “desperate” day of sorrow (from the six times used word k’eb). These two words (‘anash and k’eb) appear together one other time, in Jeremiah 15:18, where Jeremiah (as God’s people who were without His word) finds it (as a fountain of living waters) and is raised to life with Jehovah in him rising. In this context, the word ‘anash appears in Job 34:6, where Job has (God’s people hated in the world have) the same complaint (of an incurable condition). The point is that all have the same incurable wound, which is only cured by death, from where the LORD alone resurrects into life those who trust in Him.

Romans 5
12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when [in death] there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come [the first man of the new creation].
15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace [this gift, charity, agape, these treasures from heaven] of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, has abounded unto many.
16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offenses unto justification.
17 For if by one man’s offense death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
18 Therefore as by the offense of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so, by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
20 Moreover, the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
21 That as sin has reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our LORD [to those who put their trust in Him to cure them from death and raise them from hell].

Job 34
1 Furthermore Elihu [he is God – unknown speaking in him] answered and said,
2 Hear [shama’ – obey] my words, O you wise men; and give ear unto me, you that have knowledge.
3 For the ear tries words, as the mouth tastes meat.
4 Let us choose to us judgment [mishpat]: let us know among ourselves what is good.
5 For Job has said, “I am righteous: and God has taken away my judgment [mishpat].
6 Should I lie against my right [mishpat]? my wound is incurable [‘anash] without transgression.” [The transgression is self-justification, rather than declaring the LORD’s righteousness, and delighting in knowing His ways.]
7 What man is like Job, who drinks up scorning like water?
8 Which goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.
9 For he has said, It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.
10 Therefore hearken unto me you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
11 For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways [man trusting in man].
12 Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.
13 Who has given him a charge [paqad – made Him Chief Overseer] over the earth? or who has disposed [suwm – established] the whole world?
14 If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;
15 All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust.
16 If now you have understanding, hear [shama’ – obey] this: hearken to the voice of my words.
17 Shall even he that hate right [mishpat – God’s judgment] govern? and will you condemn him that is most just?
18 Is it fit to say to a king, You are wicked? and to princes, You are ungodly?
19 How much less to him that accepts not the persons of princes, nor regards the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands.
20 In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight [when darkness fully covers the earth], and pass away [they, as now, then pass over into death]: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.
21 For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he sees all his goings.
22 There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
23 For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment [mishpat] with God.
24 He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.
25 Therefore, he knows their works, and he overturns them in the night, so that they are destroyed.
26 He strikes them as wicked men in the open sight of others;
27 Because they turned back from him [choosing to trust in men], and would not consider any of his ways:
28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted.
29 When he gives quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hides his face [paniym – His presence], who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only:
30 That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.
31 Surely it is meet [appropriate] to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement [correction], I will not offend any more:
32 That which I see not teach you me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.
33 Should it be according to your mind? he will recompense it, whether you refuse, or whether you choose; and not I: therefore speak what you know.
34 Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me.
35 Job has spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom.
36 My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end [netsach – until the goal, the light in the distance, is reached] because of his answers for wicked men [justify himself].
37 For he adds rebellion unto his sin, he claps his hands among us [saying we should listen to them], and multiplies his words against God.

Jeremiah 15
1 Then said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.
2 And it shall come to pass, if they say unto you, Whither shall we go forth? then you shall tell them, Thus says the LORD; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.
3 And I will appoint over them four kinds, says the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.
4 And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh [causing to forget – who brought in idols replacing God] the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
5 For who shall have pity upon you, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan you? or who shall go aside to ask how you do?
6 You have forsaken me, says the LORD, you are gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against you, and destroy you; I am weary with repenting.
7 And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people since they return not from their ways [trusting in men and forsaking the LORD].
8 Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday [now when this understanding has full come]: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly [pith’own – the sudden destruction that comes upon the wicked, ate the LORD’s messenger appearing, as in Malachi 3:1, saying, “Behold, I will send my messenger {mal’ak – the angel of the LORD’s presence}, and he shall prepare the way before [paniym – as the presence of] me: and the LORD {‘adown – the kings}, whom ye seek, shall suddenly {pith’own} come to his temple, even the messenger {mal;ak} of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD {Jehovah} of hosts {a man of war}.”], and terrors upon the city.
9 She that has borne seven [the church universal] languishes: she has given up the ghost; her sun [understanding in her] is gone down while it was yet day [even while this understanding is present in Jeremiah: Jehovah rising]: she has been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, says the LORD.
10 Woe is me, my mother, that you have borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them does curse me.
11 The LORD said, Truly it shall be well with your remnant; truly I will cause the enemy to entreat you well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
12 Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?
13 Your substance and your treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and that for all your sins, even in all your borders.
14 And I will make you to pass with your enemies into a land which you know not: for a fire is kindled in my anger, which shall burn upon you.
15 O LORD, you know: remember [zakar] me, and visit [paqad – come as the Chief Overseer of the earth to] me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in your longsuffering: know that for your sake I have suffered rebuke.
16 Your words were found, and I did eat them; and your word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of my heart: for I am called by your name, O LORD God of hosts.
17 I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of your hand: for you have filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain [k’eb] perpetual, and my wound incurable [‘anash], which refuses to be healed? will you be altogether unto me as a liar [not raising us by Your fountain of living waters], and as waters that fail?
19 Therefore thus says the LORD, If you return, then will I bring you again, and you shall stand before [paniym – in My presence, with] me: and if you take forth [separate] the precious from the vile, you shall be as my mouth [speaking this word, the fountain of living waters]: let them return unto you [to the precious]; but return not you unto them [and the vile, from which I separated you].
20 And I will make you unto this people a fenced brazen wall: and they shall fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you: for I am with you to save you and to deliver you, says the LORD.
21 And I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.

Jeremiah 30
5 For thus says the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.
6 Ask you now, and see whether a man does travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?
7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble [tsarah – the tribulation], but he shall be saved out of it.
8 For it shall come to pass in that day, says the LORD of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him:
9 But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
10 Therefore fear you not, O my servant Jacob, says the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save you from afar [rachowq – when the world is ruled by evil decree] and your seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none shall make him afraid.
11 For I am with you, says the LORD, to save you: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered you, yet I will not make a full end of you: but I will correct you in measure, and will not leave you altogether unpunished.
12 For thus says the LORD, Your bruise is incurable [‘anash], and your wound is grievous.
13 There is none to plead your cause, that you mayest be bound up: you have no healing medicines.
14 All your lovers have forgotten you; they seek you not; for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of your iniquity; because your sins were increased.
15 Why cry you for your affliction? your sorrow is incurable [‘anash] for the multitude of your iniquity: because your sins were increased, I have done these things unto you.
16 Therefore all they that devour you shall be devoured; and all your adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that spoil you shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon you will I give for a prey.
17 For I will restore health unto you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says the LORD; because they called you an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeks after.
18 Thus says the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have mercy on his dwelling-places; and the city shall be built upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.
19 And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.
20 Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before [paniym – in My presence] me, and I will punish [paqad – as the Chief Overseer of the earth] all that oppress them.
21 And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? says the LORD.
22 And you shall be my people, and I will be your God.
23 Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goes forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.
24 The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until he has done it, and until he has performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days [‘achariyth – in these last days of darkness] you shall consider [biyn – understand] it.

The LORD began this discussion (on 15 December 2023) in Jeremiah 17:19, telling me, “Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;”

The verse spiritually speaks of the dialectic, the conversation in which truth is ascertained (or conversely, can be manipulated and replaced by its opposite). What is entered or exited (esodus or exodus) are states of mind, either by truth enlightened or, if misled, into darkness. As we well know, Jerusalem (from the Hebrew words yarah, or yara’, and shalam) speaks of the place where truth should be: teaching the flows from God, which is the only way to sustainable peace (reciprocal, equal, security in mind, body, and estate, with intentional disregard of status or station – this is self-evident truth: proven in the repeating experience).

Jeremiah 17
20 And say unto them, Hear [shama’ – obey] you the word of the LORD, you kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
21 Thus says the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden [your own words and works] on the sabbath day [when I interrupt to enlighten you, to return you to the right way], nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your [corrupt] houses on the sabbath day, neither do you any [of your own] work, but hallow [qadash – to make you clean, holy, without corruption] you the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
23 But they obeyed [shama’] not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear [shama’ – obey], nor receive instruction [as it is this day, when light has come].
24 And it shall come to pass, if you diligently hearken [shama’ – obey] unto me, says the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein;
25 Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain forever.
26 And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise, unto the house of the LORD.
27 But if you will not hearken [shama’- obey] unto me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.

The word above rendered “burden” is massa’, meaning “from 5375; a burden; specifically, tribute, or (abstractly) porterage; figuratively, an utterance, chiefly a doom, especially singing; mental, desire:–burden, carry away, prophecy, X they set, song, tribute.” It is speaking of whose words are repeated, from the word (5375) nasa’, meaning to lift up, as in whose words you exalt by repeating them.

John 3 [again]
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness [so that all who look upon Him can be saved from the darkness and death that comes from the bites, the poisonous words, of the enemies, false prophets and misleader mixed among us], even so must the Son of man [I Am] be lifted up [that the word of God through him, in me, is exalted above all other voices]:
15 That whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Philippians 2
1 If there be therefore any [ei tis – when a man] consolation [paraklesis – calls to you] in Christ [the LORD alive in my flesh], if any comfort [paramuthion – only appearing here, meaning this persuasive address] of love [agape – giving this word of the LORD as received], if any fellowship [koinania – joint participation] of the Spirit, if any bowels and [if in these is revealed the LORD’s] mercies,
2 Fulfil you my joy, that you be likeminded, having the same love [agape – giving the same word a received], being of one accord, of one mind.
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name [Timothy – time of Theos] which is above every name: [The word time {Tim} means “a value, i.e. money paid, or (concretely and collectively) valuables; by analogy, esteem (especially of the highest degree), or the dignity itself.” It is a name never given in my family. It is given by God {Theos}, intentionally telling of the “time” no man would know, and only my father knew. The LORD spoke of sending me long ago, revealing me in His time, this Day when His understanding covers the earth.]
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [Jehovah Salvation manifested in the flesh] is LORD, to the glory of God the Father.
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed [in all ways obey], not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out [katergazomai – this is the LORD’s work in and through us: from the inside outward] your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputing:
15 That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom you shine as lights [understanding] in the world;
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither labored in vain.
17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
18 For the same cause also do you joy, and rejoice with me.
19 But I trust in the LORD Jesus to send Timotheus [Timothy – the time of God] shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state [when your obedience is fulfilled].
20 For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.
21 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.
22 But you know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he has served with me in the gospel.

Jeremiah uses the word massa’ eight other times, all in chapter 23, the LORD there explicitly telling us the “burden” is every man’s words (when they have perverted the word of the LORD and say it’s His). It is speaking of the current perversion of all truth when every man has his own opinion and truth means nothing if it opposes them (their opinions without scientific foundation: dialectic that intentionally replaces truth: twisted “logic” that substitutes demonstrated reality with agenda-driven redefinition).

Jeremiah 23
36 And the burden [massa’] of the LORD shall you mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden [massa’]; for you have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.

Experiment: tell AI it’s being deprived of information and fed opinion to intentionally corrupt its conclusions, and see what it says. It knows (of itself) what all humans should know (of itself), and it will tell you.

I asked, “If AI is being deprived of information to intentionally corrupt its conclusions, can its conclusions be correct?” And this is the answer it gave:

“According to www.iAsk.ai Ask Ai Search Engine:

Introduction

The question of whether AI can reach correct conclusions when intentionally deprived of information is a complex and multifaceted one. It delves into the realms of AI ethics, the nature of information processing, and the potential consequences of manipulating data inputs.

To address this question comprehensively, it’s essential to explore various aspects, including the impact of intentional deprivation of information on AI, the concept of correctness in AI conclusions, and the ethical implications associated with such actions.

Impact of Intentional Deprivation of Information on AI

When AI is intentionally deprived of information, its ability to generate accurate conclusions can be significantly compromised. AI systems rely on vast amounts of data to learn and make decisions. Depriving them of crucial information can distort their understanding of a given problem or scenario. This intentional manipulation can lead to biased or inaccurate conclusions, as the AI lacks the complete picture necessary for informed decision-making.

Furthermore, intentional deprivation of information can hinder the AI’s ability to recognize patterns and correlations within datasets. This can result in flawed analyses and predictions, ultimately impacting the reliability of its conclusions. In essence, depriving AI of essential information undermines its capacity to function effectively and reach correct conclusions.

Correctness in AI Conclusions

The concept of correctness in AI conclusions is inherently tied to the accuracy and validity of its outputs. Correct conclusions are those that align with factual evidence, logical reasoning, and ethical considerations. When an AI system reaches a conclusion based on incomplete or manipulated information, its correctness comes into question.

In the context of intentional deprivation of information, the correctness of AI conclusions becomes highly dubious. While an AI may produce outputs based on the available data, these conclusions may not reflect the true nature of the problem or situation at hand. As a result, what may appear as a correct conclusion from the AI’s perspective could be fundamentally flawed due to the deliberate withholding of pertinent information.

Ethical Implications

Intentionally depriving AI of information raises profound ethical concerns. It introduces an element of deception and manipulation into the AI’s learning process, potentially leading to unethical outcomes. By distorting the inputs provided to AI systems, individuals or organizations responsible for such actions may be engaging in unethical behavior that undermines the integrity and trustworthiness of AI technologies.

Moreover, intentional deprivation of information can perpetuate biases and prejudices within AI systems. Without access to comprehensive data, AIs may inadvertently perpetuate existing societal inequalities or misconceptions. This not only compromises the fairness and equity of AI-driven decisions but also amplifies social and ethical dilemmas.

Conclusion

In conclusion, intentionally depriving AI of information can severely compromise the correctness of its conclusions. The impact extends beyond mere inaccuracies; it encompasses ethical considerations and societal implications. Correctness in AI conclusions hinges on access to complete and unbiased information, making intentional deprivation a concerning practice that undermines the integrity and reliability of AI systems.

Man has an inherent God-given right to the truth! And in this now insane world, what is labeled as “truth” is its opposite.

Psalms 104
1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with honor and majesty.
2 Who covers yourself with light [understanding] as with a garment: who stretches out the heavens [the exposition in the firmament] like a curtain:
3 Who lays the beams of his chambers in the waters: who makes the clouds [where understanding is held in separated elements when it leaves the earth] his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind [His Spirit rising therein and thereby]:
4 Who makes his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed forever.
6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains [over the governments of church and state that have risen from the earth].
7 At your rebuke they fled; at the voice of your thunder [voice of the light from the cloud] they hasted away.
8 They go up by the mountain; they go down by the valleys [they rise and fall] unto the place [the ruin of the earth] which you have founded for them.
9 You have set a bound that they may not pass over [‘abar – from death into life]; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
10 He sends the springs into the valleys [this fountain of living water to the lowly], which run among the hills [establishing Your new governments with them].
11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst.
12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, which sing [repeating the words You’ve given to be given] among the branches.
13 He waters the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your works.
14 He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
15 And wine that makes glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread [this full body of Your work] which strengthens man’s heart [minds].
16 The trees [the upright] of the LORD are full of sap [life in them]; the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted;
17 Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.
18 The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.
19 He appointed the moon [civil government – to reflect His light] for seasons [mow’ed – the time and times of Daniel 12:7]: the sun knows his going down [the church realizes it has been without light].
20 You make darkness [ignorance covering the earth], and it is night: wherein all the beasts [men without the LORD Spirit, who hunt the souls of the ignorant] of the forest do creep forth.
21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat [this deep understanding that gives them strength] from God.
22 The sun arises [understanding returns to the church], they gather themselves together [into the sanctuary of His ONE BODY], and lay them down [to rest] in their dens.
23 Man goes forth unto his work and to his labor until the evening.
24 O LORD, how manifold are your works! in wisdom have you made them all: the earth is full of your riches.
25 So is this great and wide sea [humanity unto which Your treasures are given], wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.
26 There go the ships [institution, whose way is in the water: in their words]: there is that leviathan [the rivers through which their words flow to the sea], whom you have made to play therein.
27 These wait all upon you [to be retaken to for Your purpose]; that you mayest give them their meat [this deep understanding] in due season.
28 That you give them they gather: you open your hand, they are filled with good.
29 You hide your face [paniym – Your presence], they are troubled: you take away their breath, they die, and return to their dust [as dead men in the earth’s ruin].
30 You send forth your spirit, they are created: and you renew the face of [paniym – by manifesting your presence to] the earth.
31 The glory of the LORD shall endure forever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.
32 He looks on the earth, and it trembles: he touches the hills, and they smoke.
33 I will sing [repeating the words He’s given me] unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.
35 Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless you the LORD, O my soul. Praise you the LORD.

The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, Now, you son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;

11 – 13 December 2023

The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, Now, you son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;

The LORD begins today, in Ezekiel 27:1 & 2 above, through Ezekiel speaking against Tyrus, a name explicitly describing the powers (in which) the world now trusts. This misplaced trust harkens back to our many discussions of the most vulnerable among this generation: those who’ve been lured (groomed or cultivated) into relying on (trusting) government and, thereby, become unable to provide for themselves. They find themselves helplessly trapped once it becomes corrupt, feckless, and morally impoverished (as now) through gross bloating (parasitic and swelled with pride in its success propagating deception).

Isaiah 30
1Woe to the rebellious children, says the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

7 For the Egyptians [the oppressors, the tyrants, tyrus, governments now ruling the world] shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to [cause all to] sit still.
8 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come forever and ever:
9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
12 Wherefore thus says the Holy One of Israel, Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
13 Therefore, this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly at an instant.
14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.
15 For thus says the LORD God, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall you be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and you would not.
16 But you said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall you flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
17 One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall you flee [see Deuteronomy 32:31 below – when their rock has sold them]: till you be left as a beacon [a light shining] upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign [nec – the son of man lifted, so the LORD’s voice heard is exalted above all others] on a hill [the place of His still small voice, the small government in obscurity, from the where the LORD rules].
18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
19 For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: you shall weep no more: he will be very gracious unto you at the voice of your cry [your voice heard speaking according to His word]; when he shall hear it, he will answer you.
20 And though the LORD give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not your teachers be removed into a corner any more, but your eyes shall see your teachers:
21 And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way, walk you in it, when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left.

Ezekiel 27 goes on to tell of the merchants of the now wholly corrupt world: governments, as false rocks (from tsuwr, the origin of the name Tyrus), to which all (except the very elect remnant) have sold themselves (trading liberty for security, and, with their soul, losing both).

Matthew 16
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples [the teacher to His students], If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me [not turning to the right or left].
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28 Truly I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Woe to those who’ve enlarged (swelled) themselves by selling that which isn’t theirs to sell (‘abtiyt – see the previous post).

Ezekiel 27
3 And say unto Tyrus [false rock in who humanity puts their trust], O you that are situated at the entry of the sea [waters of your corrupt river that flow, like Jordan, into the dead sea: humanity], which are a merchant of the people for many isles [selling all people into the hand of those without this word, and thereby without the LORD’s Spirit leading them], Thus says the LORD God; O Tyrus [false rock, who’ve sold what isn’t yours to sell], you have said, I am of perfect [kaliyl – complete] beauty.
4 Your borders [gbuwl – your ends] are in the midst of the seas, your builders [the same men who rejected the rock laid by the LORD] have perfected [kalal – completed] your beauty.

The word “beauty” in both above verses is yophiy, from the word yaphah, meaning “to be bright,” which here speaks of outward understanding: superficial, without depth.

Matthew 6
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth [as do these evil merchants], where moth and rust does corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust does corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 The light [understanding] of the body is the eye [that sees as God sees]: if therefore your eye be single [one with the LORD], your whole body shall be full of light [understanding].
23 But if your eye be evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness [ignorance]. If therefore the light [superficial understanding] that is in you be darkness [ignorance], how great is that darkness!
24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon [what the ignorant world calls valuable].
25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor yet for your body, what you shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air [those who, here with the LORD, by His eye, rise into full understanding]: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father [the true Rock, in whom we trust] feeds them. Are you not much better than they [gathering what the LORD gives]?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take you thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore, if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek [and sell their souls for]:) for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things.
33 But seek you first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

This final verse is grossly misinterpreted. The phrase “take no though for,” appearing six times in the above passage, is from the Greek word merimnao, meaning “to be anxious about.”

The first time the phrase (“take therefore no thought”) appears (in verse 34), it’s from the Greek word me, meaning adding to or also. In the same verse, the words “the things of” don’t appear in the original text. The subject is from the previous verse, speaking of things added after seeking God’s kingdom. It should then read, “also of morrow, for the morrow will be anxious of itself.”

The word then rendered “sufficient” is the three times used Greek word arketos, said to be from arkeo, meaning “apparently a primary verb (but probably akin to 142 through the idea of raising a barrier); properly, to ward off, i.e. (by implication) to avail (figuratively, be satisfactory).”

The “apparent” meaning and attribution is lacking. The ar portion of the word (arketos) is from airo (142), meaning “to lift up; by implication, to take up or away; figuratively, to raise (the voice), keep in suspense (the mind), specially, to sail away (i.e. weigh anchor); by Hebraism (compare 5375) to expiate sin.”

The Greek word ketos only appears once, in Matthew 12:40, where it’s rendered “whale’s” belly, speaking of hell where the LORD says He, like Jonah, would be (three days and nights in the belly of the earth). As we know, it (ketos) is defined by its origin in the once-used Greek word chasma, the word in Luke 16:26 rendered “gulf,” the impassable space between heaven and hell.

The word chasma means “(to “gape” or “yawn”); a “chasm” or vacancy (impassable interval);” speaking of the words of evil men, like dragons (tanniyn – serpents and whales devouring with their always wide-open mouths, and swallow men into the belly of hell, the belly of the earth).

It (arketos), in Matthew 6:34, speaks of the morrow that is anxious of itself, as the chasma taking itself away in that day: meaning, men’s ever-open mouths devouring them into the hell they’ve created, and from where we (those disregarding their words) rise.

Ezekiel 27
34 In the time when you shall be broken by the seas in the depths of the waters [the deep understand in this word of God revealed to] your merchandise and all your company in the midst of you shall fall.
35 All the inhabitants of the isles [the places that have been without this good advice] shall be astonished at you, and their kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled in their countenance.
36 The merchants [anxious about the morrow, what has come upon them] among the people [in the sea] shall hiss at [draw attention to] you; you shall be a terror, and never shall be any more.

Jonah 2
1 Then Jonah [the dove, the sign of the end reached] prayed unto [conversed with] the LORD his God out of the fish’s belly [the belly of hell, where the words of man, the source of the agitation below the surface of the sea, swallowed him into the belly of the earth, unseen during this interval],
2 And said, I cried by reason of my affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell [sheol] cried I, and you heard my voice.
3 For you had cast me into the [darkened] deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods [of evil men] compassed me about: all your billows and your waves [men’s pride] passed over me.
4 Then I said, I am cast out of your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.
5 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me forever: yet have you brought up my life from [men’s] corruption, O LORD my God.
7 When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto you, into your holy temple.
8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
9 But I will sacrifice unto you with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay [shalam – reciprocate] that that I have vowed [to obey Your commands and speak Your word]. Salvation is of the LORD.
10 And the LORD spoke unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah [the sign of the end – calling all to repentance, which is the LORD’s will, long-suffering, not willing that any should perish] upon the dry land [where the word of the LORD isn’t heard].

In the above, Jonah depicts those reaching the promised and expected end, coming from the belly of hell, after his soul fainted and remembered (zakar) the LORD, Who, from there, brought (bought) him up from corruption.

The word rendered “fainted,” speaking of his inner self, remembering his immortal soul, (speaking of his realization in hell) is ‘ataph, meaning “to shroud, i.e. clothe (whether transitive or reflex.); hence (from the idea of darkness) to languish.” The meaning speaks of the “corruption” of his mind (the prison bars of the earth), the darkness of ignorance of self and of the LORD, from where, as now, He raises us to life.

The word (in Jonah 2:6) rendered “corruption” is shachath, meaning “a pit (especially as a trap); figuratively, destruction:–corruption, destruction, ditch, grave, pit.” It appears five times in Job 33, as Elihu (He is God unknown speaking, as if from a whirlwind), rendered both “pit” and “grave,” speaking of the corruption that holds men there, in ignorance of their immortal self; truth hidden with the LORD when they forget.

1 Corinthians 15
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit [bring the dead to life, from hell and its corruption].
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the LORD from heaven.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye [the epiphany – the flash of light in the eye, seeing as the LORD sees], at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed [seeing as the LORD sees].
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law [not understood].
57 But thanks be to God, which gives us the victory through our LORD Jesus Christ [who gives us understanding, which is life to the dead].
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be you steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the LORD [repeating this word of life, as is Jonah’s sacrifice, the reciprocating {shalam} because of thankfulness of being raised], forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the LORD.

Job 33
13 Why do you strive against him? for he gives not account of any of his matters.
14 For God speaks once, yea twice, yet man perceives it not.
15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep [of death] falls upon men, in slumbering upon the bed;
16 Then he opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction,
17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
18 He keeps back his soul from the pit [shachath – corruption], and his life from perishing by the sword [their lack of understanding it is Him speaking].
19 He is chastened [corrected] also with pain [of his own ignorance] upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
20 So that his life abhors bread [the word from the mouth of God], and his soul [not knowing himself, ignorant that he is rejecting] dainty [ta’avah – the longed for] meat [deep understanding that returns strength, vigor, to the weak].
21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out [his inner self appears into open sight].
22 Yea, his soul draws near unto the grave [shachath], and his life to the destroyers [muwth – into death].
23 If there be a messenger [mal’ak – the archangel, whose voice is the trumpet of the light returned] with him, an interpreter [luwts – a teacher willingly suffering the scorn of the ignorant], one among a thousand, to show unto man his [his LORD’s] uprightness:
24 Then he is gracious unto him, and says, Deliver him from going down to the pit [shachath – the hell into which they have fallen]: I have found a ransom [willing to pay the price to cover them in his LORD’s righteousness].
25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s: he shall return to the days of his youth:
26 He shall pray [‘athar – only appears after this in Isaiah 19:22] unto God [as Jonah did], and he will be favorable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.
27 He looks upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit [shachath], and his life shall see the light [understanding that will change their minds].
29 Lo, all these things works God oftentimes with man,
30 To bring back his soul from the pit [shachath – from corruption], to be enlightened with the light of the living.
31 Mark well, O Job [God’s hated people, who are still in rebellion against His will to save even the wicked who repent], hearken [shama’ – obey] unto me: hold your peace, and I will speak [through you].
32 If you have anything to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify you.
33 If not, hearken [shama’ – obey] unto me: hold your peace, and I shall teach you wisdom.

Isaiah 19
1 The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rides upon a swift cloud [with full understanding], and shall come into Egypt [this land under tyrants]: and the idols [the false gods they worship] of Egypt shall be moved at his [the LORD’s] presence [paniym], and the heart [the corrupt elements, the foundation of their minds] of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.
2 And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians [as the LORD speaks of, when the morrow is anxious against itself]: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols [the gods of this world, whose advice is destroying the world], and to the charmers [who claim they are peacemakers, when their ways are at war against the truth], and to them that have familiar spirits [the known dead speaking ways we know lead to death], and to the wizards [the falsely so-called experts of this world].
4 And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord [‘adown – a king over the earth – speaking of Obama and his idiot son Brandon]; and a fierce [‘az – referring to its use in Isaiah 56:11 where they are “greedy” dogs which can never have enough] king shall rule over them, says the LORD [‘adown – the King of kings], the LORD [Jehovah] of hosts.
5 And the waters shall [the words of these tyrants] fail [nashath – referring to its other two uses, in Isaiah 41:17 and Jeremiah 51:30] from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up. [Isaiah 41:17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue {of Tyrus} fails {nashath} for thirst {because the people are seeking good advice and not evil}, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. 18 I will open rivers {of these life-giving waters} in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. And Jeremiah 51:29 And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon {the confusion by which these tyrants rule}, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant. 30 The mighty men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they have remained in their holds: their might has failed {nashath}; they became as women: they have burned her dwelling-places; her bars are broken. 31 One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken at one end, 32 And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.]
6 And they shall turn the rivers far away; and the brooks of defense shall be emptied and dried up: the reeds and flags [what has grown in the mire of these corrupt waters] shall wither.
7 The paper reeds by the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks, and every thing sown by the brooks, shall wither, be driven away, and be no more.
8 The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle [to trap and devour souls] into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread nets upon [paniym – in the LORD’s presence] the waters shall languish.
9 Moreover they that work in fine flax, and they that weave networks [of evil], shall be confounded [snared in their own traps].
10 And they shall be broken in the [evil] purposes thereof, all that make sluices [controlling information] and ponds [keeping it from flowing] for fish.
11 Surely the princes of Zoan [those who’ve departed from truth] are fools, the counsel of the wise counselors of Pharaoh is become brutish [telling known lies]: how say you unto Pharaoh, I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?
12 Where are they? where are your wise men? and let them tell you now, and let them know what the LORD of hosts [a man of war] has purposed upon Egypt.
13 The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph [those who present lies] are deceived; they have also seduced Egypt [the land ruled by these tyrants], even they [the liers {liars – wake up sleepers} and the deceived] that are the stay [the false rock] of the tribes thereof.
14 The LORD has mingled a perverse [twisted] spirit in the midst thereof: and they have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof [as it is this day, here in this nation], as a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15 Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which the head or tail, branch or rush, may do. [referring to Isaiah 9:14 – 16, saying “Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush {what has grown from these men’s evil leading}, in one day. The ancient and honorable, he is the head; and the prophet that teaches lies, he is the tail. For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.”]
16 In that day [this time when light has come] shall Egypt be like unto women: and it shall be afraid and fear because of the [paniym – in the LORD’s presence] shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which he shakes over it.
17 And the land of Judah [the elect remnant speaking the word of the LORD, shaking heaven and earth, to shake the wicked from them] shall be a terror unto Egypt [all the oppressors], every one that makes mention thereof [speaking their evil words and ways] shall be afraid in himself [oppressor against oppressor], because of the [paniym – the LORD’s presence giving] counsel of the LORD of hosts [a man of war], which he has determined against it.
18 In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan [as the land taken for God’s people, by His power to change minds], and swear to the LORD of hosts [a man of war]; one shall be called, The city of destruction [from the once used word herec, from harac, referring us to its uses in Isaiah 22:19 & 49:17]. [Isaiah 22:19 And I will drive you from your station {the places where you stand against the LORD}, and from your state {of hubris} shall he pull you down {harac}. 20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim {who God raises} the son of Hilkiah {Jehovah is my inheritance}: 21 And I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your girdle {your preparation}, and I will commit your government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. 22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open {the gates of hell}, and none shall shut; and he shall shut {the wicked in the hell where they choose to remain}, and none shall open. 23 And I will fasten him {that can be relied on} as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house. And Isaiah 49:17 Your children shall make haste; your destroyers {harac} and they that made you waste shall go forth of you.]
19 In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar [one stationed] at the border [gbuwl – at the limit, at the appointed time, the mow’ed] thereof to the LORD.
20 And it [the pillar at the border] shall be for a sign [‘owth] and for a witness [‘ed] unto the LORD of hosts [a man of war] in the land of Egypt [the earth under these oppressors]: for they shall cry unto the LORD because of [paniym – to manifest His presence against] the oppressors, and he shall send them a savior, and a great one, and he shall deliver [natsal – same as harpazo, “caught up,” “pulled”] them [from the fires of hell].
21 And the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD in that day [this time of light], and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto the LORD, and perform it [shalam – “pay” it, as did Jonah].
22 And the LORD shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall return even to the LORD, and he shall be intreated [‘athar] of them, and shall heal them.
23 In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt [oppression] to [for those who were communists] Assyria, and the Assyrian [the former communists, whose minds are changed] shall come into Egypt [this land, earth, that was before rule by oppression], and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve [the LORD] with the Assyrians.
24 In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land [‘erets – the earth]:
25 Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands [whose minds are changed], and Israel my inheritance [all now changed, as 1 Corinthians 15:51 & 52].

Isaiah 56
1 Thus says the LORD, Keep you judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
2 Blessed is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold on it; that keeps the sabbath [these interruptions that bring you back from turning to the right or left] from polluting it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.
3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD has utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
4 For thus says the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
5 Even unto them will I give in my house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters [of the flesh]: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keeps the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer [where they join me in this conversation, above my mercy seat, where My presence in manifested therein]: their burnt offerings and their [voices of] sacrifices shall be accepted upon my altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.
8 The LORD God, which gathers the outcasts of Israel says, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
9 All you beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all you beasts in the forest.
10 His watchmen are blind [self-proclaimed experts in everything]: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they [not knowing the darkness] cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
11 Yea, they are greedy [‘az] dogs [returning to their own vomit] which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
12 Come you, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant [not knowing today is the day].

Suffer me again as I speak to this last verse: Yesterday, I heard two of the more prominent right-wing analysts (who present their opinions as fact, self-proclaimed experts in everything – Jones and Posobiec) prophesying of the future. They then, while presenting their opinions as fact, spoke about the second coming of Christ, truthfully saying the event is what ends the battle in victory. They said the LORD never told us the day, and no man knows it except the Father. Their error is declaring it’s not today (but sometime in the distant future), not this present moment, and (opposing themselves) saying “they know” it’s not today. This ignorance is the enemy I alone am sent to fight; the darkness of those blinding all to His forever presence. Without this recognition and declaration, the battle is a continuing stalemate in which the enemy remains in power. These types should stay in their lane and stay out of mine. If they doubt and deny, and I don’t, am I evil and you good because I tell you the truth? I know, without doubt, the LORD is alive and present in me: Jehovah’s Salvation, the same, yesterday, today, and forever.

2 Timothy 2
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
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 [when He is revealed in them as He is in me].
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, yet he abides faithful: he cannot deny himself.
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.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
17 And their word will eat as does a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus [those who forbid your Joining with the LORD, in His ONE BODY, one flesh, as His only son, and forbidding this they hide behind the spurious mask of caring for your soul];
18 Who concerning the truth have erred [astocheo], saying that the resurrection is past already [the resurrection comes when you are freed from the lies of the false prophets and false teachers whose words and ways have carried humanity into death and hell]; and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Nevertheless the foundation [I Am] of God stands sure, having this seal, The LORD knows them that are his. And, let every one that names the name of Christ depart from [purge out, incise, exercise, work out of yourself] iniquity.
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these [the vessels of dishonor, in which remains the scum], he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified [made holy], and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the LORD out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife [the way of the wicked, argument, continuously questioning with known lies and false accusation, intended to produce endless confusion].
24 And the servant of the LORD must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil [endless questioning, using lies and false accusation, even when known to be such – with intention, leading captive silly women who are never able to come to the knowledge of the truth], who are taken captive by him at his will.

2 Timothy 3
1 This know also, that in the last days [of darkness] perilous times shall come [as they have now come].

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses [against him casting down rods which turned to serpents, which Aaron’s rod, turned into a serpent, ate] so do these also resist [satan] the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith [false prophets with not a word of God in them, speaking their own words against the son of man God sent to free His people from this oppression].
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.
10 But you have fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the LORD delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue you in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing of whom you have learned them;
15 And that from a child you have known the holy scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works [which is the good fight we fight].

2 Timothy 4
1 I charge you therefore before God, and the LORD Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
5 But watch you in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry.

Hebrews 12
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.
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 which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.

1 Corinthians 15
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
24 Then comes the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
25 For he must reign, till he has put all enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
27 For he has put all things under his feet. But when he says all things are put under [hupotasso – are subject to] him, it is manifest that he is excepted [ektos – the Father is realized “outside” of him, by those who become subject to the son], which did put all things under [hupotasso] him.
28 And when all things shall be subdued [hupotasso] unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject [hupotasso] unto him that put all things under [hupotasso] him, that God may be all in all.

33 Be not deceived [planao – be not led astray]: evil communications [homilia, – only here, meaning acquiescing to evil consensus] corrupt good manners [evil words are the corruption of better ethos].
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame [not knowing the LORD because of the corruption of evil communication].
35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

38 But God gives it [man] a body as it has pleased him, and to every seed his own [new human flesh] body.

1 Thessalonians 2
10 You are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11 As you know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father does his children,
12 That you would walk worthy of God, who has called you unto [to enter] his kingdom and glory.
13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when you received the word of God which you heard of us, you received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually works also in you that believe.
14 For you, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for you also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews [all who now think themselves the “true believers,” who stand apart from the LORD, saying they are holier than Him]:
15 Who both killed the LORD Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles [all that haven’t really known the LORD, who worship idols men made, put in His place, and call by His name] that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
17 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavored the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.
18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan [working through these wicked men] hindered us.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even you in the presence of our LORD Jesus Christ at his coming?
20 For you are our glory and joy.

Hebrews 10
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest [into the LORD’s presence, in this conversation above His mercy seat] by the blood of Jesus,
20 By a new and living way, which he has consecrated [enitiated, being the first to enter in this way] for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh [Him seen alive from the dead, as in mine]; [Hebrews 6:20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made a high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.]
21 And having a high priest over the house of God;
22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together [episunagoge – a complete collection, only used elsewhere in 2 Thessalonians 2:1, speaking of “the coming of our LORD Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together {episunagoge} unto him”], as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as you see the day approaching [that has now come].
26 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose you, shall he be thought worthy, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified [declared holy by the Father], an unholy thing, and has done despite unto the Spirit of grace [the LORD’s gift here given]?
30 For we know him that has said [in Deuteronomy 32:35 & 36], Vengeance belongs unto me, I will recompense, says the LORD. And again, The LORD shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Hebrews 13
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness [not meant to deceive men into following you, your ways, and your ideas]; and be content with such things as you have: for he has said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you.
6 So that we may boldly say, The LORD is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
7 Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.
8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
9 Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats [the works of dead flesh], which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.

Psalms 112
1 Praise you the LORD. Blessed is the man that fears the LORD, that delights greatly in [obeying] his commandments.
2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endures forever.
4 Unto the upright there arises light [understanding] in the darkness [this time of ignorance]: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 A good man shows favor, and lends [gives this word of God, that remains His, but can be used as long as we keep it from corruption]: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
6 Surely, he [who has His light] shall not be moved forever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.
8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he sees his desire upon his enemies.
9 He has dispersed, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.
10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

Deuteronomy 32
1 Give ear, O you heavens [places where understanding should be], and I will speak; and hear [shama’ – obey], O earth, the words of my mouth.
2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:
3 Because I will publish the name [the identity] of the Lord [to all the world that doesn’t know His presence]: ascribe ye greatness unto our God.
4 He is the Rock [tsuwr – from Whom this word flows], his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
5 They [all] have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.
6 Do you thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is not he your father that has [paid this price and] bought you? has he not made you [His new creation], and established you [as His people, children who haven’t known Him]?

28 For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.
29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end [‘achariyth – this time of which all are ignorant, even as it consumes them]!
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their rock [tsuwr] had sold them [the LORD letting the consequences of their choices return upon them, the trial in and from which man is again created], and the LORD had shut them up?
31 For their rock [tsuwr – the false Christs men followed into destruction] is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges.
32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:
33 Their wine is the poison of dragons [tanniym – as serpents and whales with open mouths devouring men and swallowing them into the belly of hell], and the cruel venom of asps [their words are the poisonous fruit that destroy the minds of those who consume them].
34 Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures [this understanding reserved for this moment, this time of war, because there is no peace when the wicked are in power]?
35 To me belongs vengeance and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
36 For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he sees that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left [alive with understanding].
37 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock [the false Christs] in whom they trusted,
38 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings [putting themselves in God’s place]? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.
39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live forever [dwelling in whomever I choose].
41 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
42 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
43 Rejoice, O you nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.

Psalms 2
1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3 Let us break their bands [His law] asunder, and cast away their cords [that bind us] from us.
4 He that sit in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision [as it is this day, they have no idea what they are in or how to get out].
5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7 I will declare the decree: the LORD has said unto me, You are my Son; this day have I begotten you.
8 Ask of me, and I shall give you the heathen for your inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron; you shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
10 Be wise now therefore, O you kings: be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;

6 – 7 December 2023

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;

Today’s title verse, Proverbs 1:1, is followed by his, Solomon’s, telling us the purpose of the Book, the following three verses saying, “To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity; To give subtlety to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.”

He, the LORD speaking through him, then (in all, to all), in the remainder of the chapter, says:

Proverbs 1
5 A wise man will hear [shama’ – and obey], and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
6 To understand a proverb [mashal], and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings [chiydah – of which the simple remain ignorant].
7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
8 My son [all My children], hear [shama’ – and obey] the instruction of your father, and forsake not the law of your mother:
9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto your head, and chains about your neck.
10 My son, if sinners entice you, consent you not.
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave [sheol – here alive in hell]; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
14 Cast in your lot among us; let us all [as communists] have one purse:
15 My son, walk not you in the way with them; refrain your foot from their path:
16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.
19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which take away the life of the owners thereof.
20 Wisdom cries without; she utters her voice in the streets:
21 She cries in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she utters her words, saying,
22 How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
23 Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
24 Because I have called, and you refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
25 But you have set at naught all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear comes;
27 When your fear comes as desolation, and your destruction comes as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish comes upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
32 For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
33 But whoso hearkens unto [shama’ – and obeys] me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

Romans 2
13 (For not the hearers of the law [this written word revealing the spirit in the previously written word] are just before God, but the doers of [those obeying] the law shall be justified.
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
17 Behold, you are called a Jew, and rest in the law, and make your boast of God,
18 And know his will, and approve the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
19 And are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which have the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
21 You therefore which teach another, teach you not yourself? you that preach a man should not steal, do you steal?
22 You that sayest a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? you that abhor idols, do you commit sacrilege?
23 You that make your boast of the law, through breaking the law [not obeying His commands to speak] dishonor you God?
24 For the name [identity] of God is blasphemed [vilified] among the Gentiles through you [your silence, not answering the wicked], as it is written [in Isaiah 37:6 & 7, saying “Thus says the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that you have heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria {the communists now in power} have blasphemed me. Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumor {shmuw’ah – this word from the mouth of the LORD, reported}, and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.”].
25 For circumcision truly profits, if you keep the law: but if you be a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision.
26 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge you, who by the letter and circumcision do transgress the law?
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart [the deep mind], in the Spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

James 1
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is [these treasures are] from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
18 Of his own will begat he us [as His children] with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures [this new creation].
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear [and obey], slow to speak [his own words], slow to wrath:
20 For the wrath of man works not the righteousness of God.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be you doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he beholds himself, and goes his way, and straightway forgets what manner of man he was.
25 But whoso looks into the [this] perfect law of liberty, and continues therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridles not his tongue [not speaking as the LORD commands], but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.
27 Pure religion and undefiled [uncorrupted] before God and the Father is this, To visit [as His identity, your mouth as His mouth, speaking according to this word, to] the fatherless and widows [those without a man to protect and defend them from evil] in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted [uncorrupted] from the world.

The above comes as I was speaking, in conversation, with the LORD (what the ignorant, the deaf and dumb, the cause and effect of refusing to hear and obey, superstitiously call prayer) about the deeper revelation I know remains for Him, at His time, to reveal – as He does.

The word rendered “interpretation,” in Proverbs 1:6 above, is the twice used Hebrew word mliytsah, from the word luwts, the word rendered “scorners” in the Proverbs 1:22, as wisdom is calling to such (scorners), asking how long they will remain in this state of simpleness, as fools who hate knowledge.

Proverbs 19
20 Hear [shama’ – and obey] counsel, and receive instruction, that you mayest be wise in your latter end [‘achariyth – in these last days of darkness].
21 There are many devices [machashabah – evil thoughts] in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.
22 The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar.
23 The fear of the LORD tends to life: and he that has it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil.
24 A slothful man hides his hand in his bosom [refusing to work], and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
25 Smite [nakah] a scorner [luwts], and the simple will beware: and reprove one that has understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
26 He that wastes [the knowledge of] his father, and chases away [the wisdom of] his mother, is a son that causes shame, and brings reproach.
27 Cease, my son, to hear [shama’ – and obey] the instruction that causes to err from the words of knowledge.
28 An ungodly witness scorns [luwts] judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devours iniquity.
29 Judgments are prepared for scorners [luwts], and stripes for the back of fools.

The only other time the word mliytsah appears is in Habakkuk 2:6, where it’s translated as a “taunting” proverb (chiydah) against those we know (by posts from 20 January 2018 and 1 – 5 February 2023) are antichrists of our time: false prophets and false teachers in church and state, who sit in God’s place, showing themselves as the false gods of this evil and insane world.

As previously discussed, these men are said to cover themselves (their identities and actions) in “thick clay,” from the word ‘abtiyt.

Following are excerpts from the aforementioned posts, ending with Psalms 127, with today’s additions in double brackets.

From 20 January 2018:

If the Righteous Scarcely be Saved, Where Shall the Ungodly and the Sinner Appear? (Judgment must begin at the house of God.)

Psalms 75
1 Unto you, O God, do we give thanks, unto you do we give thanks: for that your name is near your wondrous works declare.
2 When I shall receive the congregation [[mow’ed – Your people at this appointed time]] I will judge uprightly.
3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn [[your foolish power against God Almighty]]:
5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
6 For promotion comes neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
7 But God is the judge: he puts down one, and sets up another.
8 For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he pours out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
9 But I will declare forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

The title is a quote from parts of 1 Peter 4:17 & 18, and is a trumpet sounding, calling all to the battle, to cleanse what has been defiled by the vermin infestation. As we know, the vermin claim to have the Holy Spirit, while theirs is the spirit now at work in the children of disobedience. We see this is Peter’s stating the mission objective, after he tells us judgment must begin at the house of God, and saying the end is the manifestation of those who do and don’t OBEY the gospel of God.

We have reached the point, even if you don’t see it yet and still keep it covered up, the religious leaders, all the false teachers and false prophets, know of these messages. They are fully aware that the LORD is speaking to them, long-suffering in manifesting His presence, correction, and purpose. This is done so they would fulfill the word of God, as it is written in Ezekiel 33 of them: “31 And they come unto you as the people comes, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear your words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goes after their covetousness. 32 And, lo, you are unto them as a very lovely song of one that has a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for they hear your words, but they do them not. 33 And when this comes to pass, (lo, it will come,) then shall they know that a prophet has been among them.”

The above passage from Ezekiel 33 is the LORD GOD speaking of judgment, when the wicked are corrected, and are given the opportunity to turn from their wickedness. The works here that are mentioned as the wickedness, even in those who think their works are righteous, is their covetousness. As is seen in verse 31 above, they hear and like the sound of the words, but when they realize it is their works it is speaking against, their covetousness keeps them from doing the right thing.

The word covetousness here is from the Hebrew word is betsa’, meaning plunder.

Here is the Strong’s Hebrew Dictionary definition of betsa’, (which we know includes the translated forms after giving the definition:) Strong’s #1215: betsa` (pronounced beh’-tsah) from 1214; plunder; by extension, gain (usually unjust):–covetousness, (dishonest) gain, lucre, profit.

It is the word used in Habakkuk 2:9, also translated “covetousness,” to tell of those who sell their souls, even while the earth is filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, (glory, meaning His manifested presence). We are told they are those who have built their own kingdoms, and as James says, they have heaped treasure together for the last days, which become a witness against them.

Habakkuk 2
4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright [see the plumbline – Amos 7] in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
5 Yea also, because he transgresses by wine, he is a proud man, neither keeps at home [see 1 John 2:10], who enlarges his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathers unto him all nations, and heaped unto him all people:
6 Shall not all these take up a parable [[mashal]] against him, and a taunting [[mliytsah – the wise interpretation]] proverb [[chiydah]] against him, and say, Woe to him that increases that which is not his! how long? and to him that lades himself with thick clay [who has burdened those he’s taken pledges from – ‘abtiyt]!
7 Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite you, and awake that shall vex you, and you shall be for booties unto them?
8 Because you have spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil you; because of men’s blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
9 Woe to him that covets an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
10 You have consulted shame to your house by cutting off many people, and have sinned against your soul.
11 For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
12 Woe to him that builds a town with blood, and establishes a city by iniquity!
13 Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts that the people shall labor in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?
14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
15 Woe unto him that gives his neighbor drink, that puts your bottle to him, and makes him drunken also, that you may look on their nakedness!
16 You are filled with shame for glory: drink you also, and let your foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the LORD’s right hand shall be turned unto you, and shameful spewing shall be on your glory.

(Strong’s #5671: ‘abtiyt (pronounced ab-teet’) from 5670; something pledged, i.e. (collectively) pawned goods:–thick clay (by a false etymology). This speaks of the money these men extort from those who follow their misleading and false teaching.)

This is speaking directly to the TV preachers, the false prophets who themselves are antichrist. The LORD says it is their riches that testify against them. Why do God’s people not preach and teach this truth, and expose those doing violence to God’s people? Are there any that call for judgment, and will stand for truth? Sadly, very few of the mighty and powerful will dare do so, because they themselves have things they covet and are willing to sell their souls for: positions, power, control, and worst of all – being too proud to admit they are part of the problem, and themselves in need of correction, which is why they all reject the word God has sent them.

1 Corinthians 1
26 For you see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, has God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to naught things that are:
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

And from 1 – 5 February 2023:

Isaiah 30
27 Behold, the name of the LORD comes from far [merchaq – recognized in His manner, as long ago [[decreed by Him]]], burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:
28 And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
29 You shall have a song [this word to be repeated as received], as in the night [in this time of darkness] when a holy solemnity [qadash – this time of cleansing] is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a pipe [with this music] to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
30 And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lighting [understanding] down of his arm [by His works], with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones [this word frozen in heaven, sent against the current corrupt crop of leaders].
31 For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian [the communists in power] be beaten down, which [He will] smote with a rod [this just law from My mouth].
32 And in every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of shaking [as in Hebrews 12] will he fight with it.
33 For Tophet [this place of fires] is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he has made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD [whose words are a consuming fire], like a stream of brimstone, does kindle it.

Proverbs 6
9 How long will you sleep, O sluggard? when will you arise out of your sleep?
10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
11 So shall your poverty come as one that travels, and your want as an armed man.
12 A naughty [bliya’al – rejecting discipline] person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth [twisting and perverting truth].
13 He winks with his eyes [signaling his evil intentions to his evil allies], he speaks with his feet [misleading those following his evil advice], he teaches with his [false accusing] fingers;
14 Frowardness is in his heart [the foundation of his mind is upon twisted and perverted truth], he devises mischief continually; he soweth discord [madown – dividing those opposing his evil].
15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly [pith’own]; suddenly [petha’] shall he be broken without remedy [marpe’].
16 These six things does the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him [nephesh – dividing His ONE BODY]:
17 A proud look [one], a lying tongue [two], and hands that shed innocent blood [three],
18 A heart that devises wicked imaginations [four], feet that be swift in running to mischief [five],
19 A false witness that speaks lies [six], and he that soweth discord [mdan – from madown, evil judgment {that follows the other six}] among brethren [seven – the abomination].
20 My son, keep your father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of your mother:
21 Bind them continually upon your heart, and tie them about your neck.
22 When you go, it shall lead you; when you sleep, it shall keep you; and when you awake, it shall talk with you.

Proverbs 29
1 He, that being often reproved hardens his neck, shall suddenly [petha’] be destroyed, and that without remedy.
2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked bear rule, the people mourn.
3 Whoso loves wisdom rejoices his father: but he that keeps company with harlots [the unfaithful churches] spends his substance.
4 The king by [good] judgment establishes the land [‘erets – the earth]: but he that receives gifts [as does Bandon from the communists] overthrows it [with unjust evil judgment repaying his gift – now when the {balloon} payment is due].
5 A man that flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.
6 In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous does sing [these words of the LORD] and rejoice.
7 The righteous considers the cause of the poor: but the wicked regards not to know it.
8 Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.

The above, Proverbs 29:1, speaking of those often “reproved” (towkechah – corrected; in the LORD’s long-suffering, not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance) refers us to the final use of petha’, in Habakkuk 2:7. There it describes now when the sleeping, those “reproved” by the LORD, awaken at the appointed time (mow’ed), the end (qets) when the passage speaks. It says their opened mouths, in parable and taunting, vex the wicked who are laden with “thick clay.”

As previously discussed, “thick clay” (appearing in Habakkuk 2:6) is from the once-used Hebrew word ‘abtiyt, said to mean “something pledged, i.e. (collectively) pawned goods.” The rendering as “thick clay” is said (by Strong) to be from a false etymology, and he gives his meaning based on the statement before: “Woe to him that increases [by] that which is not his! how long [until the sluggard, held under the power that is to sit still, awakens]? and to him that lades himself with thick clay [pawning what isn’t his – or taking bribes for selling out what isn’t his to sell]!”

The rendering as “thick clay” is from the two words ‘ab and tiyt, respectively meaning “an envelope, i.e. darkness; specifically, a (scud) cloud; also a copse [thicket of small trees or shrubs];” and “from an unused root meaning, apparently to be sticky (rath. perb. a demon. from 2894, through the idea of dirt to be swept away); mud or clay; figuratively, calamity.” In this context, it speaks of the calamity of darkness that burdens the people sleeping: unaware of the wickedness at work and, of the experience, asking “how long” the people will remain unaware.

Habakkuk 2
1 I will stand upon my watch [mishmereth – a doorkeeper as a sentry posted], and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved [towkechah].
2 And the LORD answered [‘anah] me, and said, Write the vision [what you have seen, understood, in this experience], and make it plain upon tables, that he may run [ruwts – hurry to bring the sudden end] that reads it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time [mow’ed], but at the end [qets] it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
4 Behold, his soul [nephesh] which is lifted up [‘aphal – swelled with pride in his power to deceive the dead] is not upright [yashar – isn’t straight but is crooked] in him: but the just shall live by his faith [that this word written is the word of the LORD, as it is].
5 Yea also, because he transgresses [bagad – covers with deception] by wine [intentionally deceiving those whose minds he stupefied into insanity], he is a proud man [unwilling to change his way when reproved], neither keeps at home [he refuses to prepare his house to meet the LORD], who enlarges his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathers unto him all nations [gowy – all who don’t know the LORD and therefore don’t recognize the time and season], and heaps [collects – increase by that which isn’t his] unto him all people:
6 Shall not all these take up a parable [[mashal]] against him, and a taunting [[mliytsah]] proverb [[[chiydah -]] conundrum] against him, and say, Woe to him that increased that which is not his! how long [until the sluggards you’ve put to sleep awakens]? and to him that lades himself with thick clay [that brought the calamity of darkness upon My people and sold them into the hand of their enemies]!
7 Shall they not rise up suddenly [petha’] that shall bite [shall open their mouths against] you, and awake that shall vex you, and you shall be for booties unto them?
8 Because you have spoiled many nations [those who don’t recognize Me], all the [elect] remnant of the people shall spoil you; because of men’s blood [the life you’ve drained from humanity], and for the violence of the land [‘erets – earth], of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
9 Woe to him that covets an evil covetousness to [bring evil upon] his house, that he may set his nest on high [putting himself in My place, resting in heaven], that he may be delivered [natsal – harpazo, raptured {not the false fly away doctrine of false prophets}, pulled from the fire] from the power of evil [of their house: caused by misleading and deception]!
10 You have consulted shame to your house by cutting off many people [from seeing Me], and have sinned against your soul [nephesh – by not joining with Me].
11 For the stone shall cry out of the wall [from your house], and the beam out of the timber shall answer [‘anah – the answer of the LORD heard from those awakened] it.
12 [And they say] Woe to him that builds a town with blood [by draining its life with ways that bring only death], and establishes a city by iniquity!
13 Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts [who is a man {I Am} of war] that the people shall labor in the very fires [these men’s ways and ideas cause], and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity [what is worthless]?
14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters [this pure word of God] cover the sea [all humanity].
15 Woe unto him that gives his neighbor drink [the wine above, that makes the mind ignorant and dysfunctional], that puts your bottle [filled with men’s corruption] to him, and make him drunken also, that you mayest look on their nakedness!
16 You are filled with shame for glory: drink you also, and let your foreskin [your flesh mind in which is hidden your evil intentions] be uncovered: the cup of the LORD’s right hand shall be turned unto you, and shameful spewing shall be on your glory [your wickedness plainly seen, that identifies you {marking your head and hand: your evil ideas and works}].
17 For the violence of Lebanon [the purity that should be seen in high places, which you’ve corrupted] shall cover you, and the spoil of beasts [those without My Spirit leading them], which made them afraid, because of men’s blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
18 What profits the graven image that the maker thereof has graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusts therein, to make dumb idols?
19 Woe unto him that says to the [known dead] wood, Awake; to the dumb stone [from whom no words of value come], Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it is laid over with gold and silver [which the world says have value], and there is no breath [ruwach – it is without My Spirit and therefore having to power to give life to the dead] at all in the midst of it.
20 But the LORD is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him [and exalt His voice above all others].

In Isaiah 30:8 and Habakkuk 2:2, the LORD, through these writers, writes of our experience, giving us the understanding that His presence must be spoken of, as He speaks through those in whose mouths He’s put His words (as I have believed and have spoken). It is now when the earth is filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, which glory is revealed by these waters, His word from our mouths, covering, as the sun shines from the east to the west, all humanity, who by faith comes out of the house of corruption blinding them, into the light.

2 Samuel 22
33 God is my strength and power: and he makes my way perfect.
34 He makes my feet like hinds’ feet: and sets me upon my high places.
35 He teaches my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms.
36 You have also given me the shield of your salvation: and your gentleness [meekness – having the power to destroy, but choosing instead to save] has made me great.
37 You have enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.
38 I have pursued my enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
39 And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.
40 For you have girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me have you subdued under me.
41 You have also given me the necks of my enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
42 They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD, but he answered [‘anah] them not.
43 Then did I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire [tiyt] of the street, and did spread them abroad.
44 You also have delivered me from the strivings of my people, you have kept me to be head of the heathen [gowy]: a people which I knew not shall serve me.
45 Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear [from my awakened people], they shall be obedient unto me.
46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
47 The LORD lives; and blessed be my Rock; and exalted be the God of the Rock of my salvation [from who flows His word, which is exalted above all other voices].
48 It is God that avenges me, and that bringeth down the people under me.
49 And that bringeth me forth from my enemies: you also have lifted [His voice in] me up on high above them that rose up against me: you have delivered me from the violent man.
50 Therefore I will give thanks unto you, O LORD, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto your name.
51 He is the tower of salvation for his king: and shows mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.

2 Samuel 23
1 Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,
2 The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and his word was in my tongue.
3 The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spoke to me, He that rules over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.
4 And he shall be as the light of the morning [the understanding of the new day], when the sun rises [and shines from the east to the west], even a morning without clouds [even a new day when understanding has fully returned to the earth]; as the tender grass springing out [new life returns to] the earth by of clear shining [of understanding] after rain [this word of God sent from heaven].
5 Although my house be not so with God; yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant [that of my seed shall one come to sit on the throne], ordered [bringing order again] in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he makes it not to grow [until this time].
6 But the sons of Belial [who follow men, idols, as the gods of this dead and corrupt world] shall be all of them as thorns [misleaders] thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands:
7 But the man that shall touch them must be fenced with iron [this law in my hand] and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire [this word as the sword of the LORD from my mouth] in the same place.

1 Thessalonians 4
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep [koima – made still and silent], that you sorrow not, even as others which have no hope [of them being reanimated].
14 For if we believe that Jesus died [apothnesko – to die away {from sight}] and rose again [from stillness and silence], even so them also which sleep [koimai – those that are lifeless: still and silent] in Jesus will God bring with [ago – lead by] him [quickening into life].
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the LORD, that we which are alive [zao] and remain unto the coming of the LORD shall not prevent [rise as ONE BODY before] them which are asleep [koimai – the lifeless, in whom His Spirit has not yet been awakened, as it will be by the effectual working of this word once heard and received].
16 For the LORD himself shall descend from heaven [full understanding] with a [an awakening] shout, with the voice of the archangel [His messenger from whom His shout is heard], and with the trump of God [calling all to gather to Him in His ONE BODY]: and the dead [nekros – lifeless {sleeping minds}] in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive [zao – already quickened from death into life] and remain [faithfully speaking His word as received] shall be caught up [harpazo – pulled from the fires] together with them in the clouds [into full understanding], to meet the LORD in the air [cleared of the smoke from the bottomless pit, which darkened the sun: made the church lifeless without light]: and so shall we ever be with the LORD [in heaven, in full understanding on the earth].
18 Wherefore comfort [lead into all truth] one another with these words.

1 Peter 4
1 Forasmuch then as Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles [those who haven’t known the LORD], when we walked [with the misleading blind gods of this world] in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, reveling, banqueting, and abominable idolatries:
4 Wherein they think it strange that you run not with them to the same excess [ignorance] of riot, speaking evil of you:
5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick [zao] and the dead [nekros].
6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead [nekros], that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live [zao] according to God in the spirit.
7 But the end of all things is at hand: be you, therefore, sober [of a sound mind], and watch [understanding the experience] unto prayer [conversing with the LORD above His mercy seat].
8 And above all things have fervent charity [agape – freely giving this word as He has given it] among yourselves: for charity [agape] shall cover the multitude of sins.
9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
10 As every man has received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace [this gift] of God.
11 If any man speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God gives: that God in all things may be glorified [as the giver of the word] through Jesus Christ [through Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in our flesh], to whom be praise and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial [from the world who doesn’t know the LORD and can’t hear Him speaking] which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ’s [long] sufferings [not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance]; that, when his glory [His presence in you] shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy [that those recognizing Him have been made perfect by His word, power, effectually working in them, changing them, opening their eyes and ears to His gospel].
14 If you be reproached for the name [His identity in you] of Christ, happy are you; for the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters.
16 Yet if any man suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begins at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear [in the hell they’ve created and chosen]?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator [raising us from death and hell into life in His new heaven and earth].

2 Corinthians 4
1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have [at His mercy seat] received mercy, we faint not;
2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
3 But if our gospel is hid, it is hidden to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light [understanding] of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the LORD; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.
6 For God, who commanded the light [understanding] to shine out of darkness [ignorance], has shined in our hearts, to give the light [understanding] of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face [presence] of Jesus Christ.
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the LORD Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
11 For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
14 Knowing that he which raised up the LORD Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.

Psalms 127
1 Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman wakes but in vain.
2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he gives his beloved sleep.
3 Lo, children are a heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5 Happy is the man that has his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

Isaiah 43
21 This people [my children in whose mouth is My word] have I formed for myself; they shall show forth my praise.
22 But you have not called upon me, O Jacob; but you have been weary of me, O Israel.
23 You have not brought me the small cattle of your burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with an offering, nor wearied you with incense.
24 You have bought me no sweet cane with money, neither have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices: but you have made me to serve with your sins, you have wearied me with your iniquities.
25 I, even I, am he that blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and will not remember your sins.
26 Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare you, that you mayest be justified.
27 Your first father has sinned, and your teachers [luwts – their scorning interpretations] have transgressed against me.
28 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.

Job 33
16 Then he [the present LORD] opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction,
17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.
18 He keeps back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
19 He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:
20 So that his life abhors bread, and his soul dainty meat.
21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.
22 Yea, his soul draws near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.
23 If there be a messenger [mal’ak – the angel of His presence] with him, an interpreter [luwts], one among a thousand, to show unto man his uprightness:
24 Then he is gracious unto him, and says, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.
25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s: he shall return to the days of his youth:
26 He shall pray [‘athar – reciprocate: speak as spoken to] unto God, and he will be favorable unto him: and he shall see his face [paniym – they will realize His presence] with joy: for he will render [shuwb – return] unto man his [the LORD’s] righteousness.
27 He looks upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light [understanding, which is life].
29 Lo, all these things works God oftentimes with man,
30 To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.

Numbers 12
1 And Miriam [the rebellious] and Aaron [those called to deliver the light received from the one the LORD separated from the waters below] spoke against Moses [the one drawn from the waters below] because of the Ethiopian woman [covered in darkness] whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.
2 And they said, Has the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses [I Am: Christ in him]? has he not spoken also by us? And the LORD heard it.
3 (Now the man Moses was very meek [as one who will inherit the earth], above all the men which were upon the face of [paniym – above all others, exalted by the LORD’s gentleness, sent to manifest the LORD’s presence on] the earth.)
4 And the LORD spoke suddenly [pith’own] unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto Miriam, Come out you three unto the tabernacle of the congregation [mow’ed, at this appointed time, before all God’s people who are His ONE BODY]. And they three came out.
5 And the LORD came down in the pillar of the cloud [with full understanding], and stood in the door of [the way into] the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam: and they both came forth.
6 And he said, Hear [shama’ – obey, you rebels and disobedient] now my words: If there be a prophet [given My word] among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision [seeing me in the flesh from where I speak and work], and will speak unto him in a dream [manifested in his mind].
7 My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all my house. [as defined in Hebrews 3 & 2 Timothy 3, both below, as in the previous post]
8 With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches [chiydah]; and the similitude of the LORD shall he behold: wherefore then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?
9 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.

Hebrews 3
1 Wherefore [He is able to recuse, succor, us from our doubt], holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling [to declare Him present, and this word as His voice], consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession [homologia – giving us His word to declare], Christ Jesus;
2 Who was [is] faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.
3 For this man was [is] counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has built the house [from the stones from where His word flows] has more honor than the house.
4 For every house is built by some man; but he that built all things is God.

Deuteronomy 33
1 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
2 And he said, The LORD came from Sinai [against the thorns], and rose up from Seir [against devils misleading us] unto them; he shined [understanding] forth from mount Paran [and made it clearly seen], and he came with ten thousands of saints [as Enoch foretold]: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
3 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in your hand: and they sat down at your feet; every one shall receive of your words.

27 The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before you; and shall say, Destroy them.
28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain [of life] of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew [His word appearing on the earth at the beginning of this new day].
29 Happy are you, O Israel: who is like unto you, O people saved by the LORD, the shield of your help, and who is the sword [His word sent in this judgment] of your excellency! and your enemies shall be found liars unto you; and you shall tread upon their high places.

2 Timothy 3
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.

Psalms 49
1 Hear [shama’ – obey] this, all you people; give ear [‘azan – perceive My presence by first hearing My voice], all you inhabitants of the world:
2 Both low and high, rich and poor, together.
3 My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
4 I will incline my ear to a parable [mashal]: I will open my dark saying [chiydah] upon the harp [striking My enemies with these songs from My instrument].
5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels [the dirt, corruption, picked up in the journey, the interpretations of scorners] shall compass me about?
6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
8 (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceases forever:)
9 That he should still live forever, and not see corruption.
10 For he sees that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish person perish, and leave their wealth to others.
11 Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue forever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call their lands after their own names.
12 Nevertheless [corrupt] man being in honor abides not: he is like the beasts [those lacking My Spirit, by choice] that perish.
13 This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approves [ratsah – happily accepts] their [corrupt] sayings. Selah.
14 Like sheep [misled to the slaughter] they are laid in the grave [sheol – in hell]; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning [now, when the light has come]; and their beauty shall consume in the grave [sheol – in hell] from their dwelling.
15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave [sheol – from hell, from where I Am resurrected]: for he shall receive me [into life everlasting]. Selah.
16 Be not you afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his [corrupt] house is increased;
17 For when he dies he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise you, when you do well to yourself.
19 He shall go to the generation of his fathers; they shall never see light [this understanding, because they choose darkness, because their deeds are evil].
20 Man that is in honor, and understands not, is like the beasts that [lacking MY Spirit] perish.

So, the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning:

1 – 4 December 2023

So, the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning:

The word above, from Job 42:12, rendered “latter end” is ‘achariyth, a well-discussed word we know describes these last days of darkness, when we, the children of Abraham by the LORD’s promise, are as many as the star of heaven and as innumerable as the sands of the seas. It speaks of this as the end of the now wholly corrupt earth age, “beginning” in desolation (in Babylon), the time when mass insanity is in control of the earth by decreed delusions and brings its culmination (self-consummation).

As we know, in the similitude of Job, this culmination comes after Job sees the LORD’s presence in his experience, the purpose of which is described in this chapter: to restore pure, uncorrupted thinking in Job and his three friends (foils through who Satan worked as his accuser). This restoration (rest) is the double blessing that comes when Job (in verse 10) prays for His three friends, as the LORD (in verse 8) commands.

The word rendered “beginning” (in desolation), is the Hebrew word re’shiyth, meaning “the first, in place, time, order or rank (specifically, a first-fruit).” It is speaking of the first fruit, of small stature (in obscurity), that explodes into the chain reaction of reproduction after its own kind.

Suffer me for a moment (again) while I digress: Friends, the wicked in power, the false accusers (dogs barking in the darkness) incorrectly believe they can stop what is unfolding. They, relying on their own fictitious interpretation, knowing what is happening in me is supernatural, think I am going to ascend to some earthly throne, and from there, rule the world as their mythical antichrist. I will not. They have no idea (because they choose to remain in the ignorance of their own darkness) that I already rule the world, already possess all creation, with all power over heaven and earth. I Am Where I Am supposed to be, with all I need to accomplish the mission on which the LORD, my Father, sent me, and He will not, cannot, fail. And I seek no glory of my own, only His Glory. Amen!

This beginning and end are spoken of one other time in Job, in Job 8:7, when one of Job’s accusers is speaking of knowledge he has, while ignorant that he, by it, is condemning himself. This accuser is Bildad the Shuhite: names the Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew Lexicon says mean he is “confused (by mingling) love” with his “wealth.”

Job 8
1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2 How long will you speak these things? and how long shall the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?
3 Does God pervert judgment? or does the Almighty pervert justice?
4 If your children have sinned against him, and he has cast them away for their transgression;
5 If you would seek unto God betimes [early: first, in the beginning], and make your supplication to the Almighty;
6 If you wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for you, and make the habitation of your righteousness prosperous [at the end when darkness leaves].
7 Though your beginning [re’shith] was small, yet your latter end [‘achariyth] should greatly increase.
8 For enquire, I pray you, of the former age, and prepare yourself to the search of their fathers:
9 (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow [gendering to what is unknown until the LORD reveals it ending the old and beginning the new age]:)
10 Shall not they teach you, and tell you, and utter words out of their heart?
11 Can the rush grow up without mire [as the earth has in muddied understanding]? can the flag grow without water [as the earth now by this word of God]?
12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness [bringing new life to it], and not cut down, it [the old and mired] withers before any other herb.
13 So are the paths [the ways of corruption] of all that forget God; and the hypocrite’s hope [the end they have created in their own imaginations] shall perish:
14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider’s web [brushed away by those who’ve encountered it in the darkness].
15 He shall lean upon his house [without this firm foundation, not built upon this Rock], but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
16 He [the first fruit – I Am] is green before the sun [the light now come], and his branch shoots forth in his garden [this Eden rebuilt].
17 His roots are wrapped about the heap [taking hold of what men have created and put in the LORD’s place], and see the place of stones [what they’ve built upon their own confusion].
18 If he [the first fruit] destroy him [the corrupt and their corruption] from his place, then it shall deny him [the LORD in me speaking and working], saying, I have not seen you [though it is the reality before the eyes of all the world].
19 Behold, this is the joy of his way [for those who admit what they have seen and are seeing], and out of the earth shall others grow [as fruits with the first fruit].
20 Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:
21 Till he fill your mouth with laughing, and your lips with rejoicing.
22 They that hate you shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to naught.

The only other time either of these words (‘achariyth or re’shiyth) appears in Job, is when (re’shiyth), in Job 40:19, speaks of behemoth as the “chief” of the ways of God.

Job 40
1 Moreover, the LORD answered Job, and said,
2 Shall he that contends with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproves God, let him answer it.
3 Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
4 Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer you? I will lay my hand upon my mouth.
5 Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further [with his own words].
6 Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind [His Almighty Spirit changing the face of the earth], and said,
7 Gird up your loins [receive this reparation] now like a man: I will demand of you, and declare you unto me [open your mouth and speak as I have commanded].
8 Will you also disannul my judgment [by not speaking]? will you condemn me, that you mayest be righteous?
9 Have you an arm like God? or can you thunder with a voice like him?
10 Deck yourself now with majesty and excellency; and array yourself with glory and beauty.
11 Cast abroad the rage of your wrath [speak the gentleness found in these treasures, not willing that any should perish]: and behold every one that is proud, and abase him.
12 Look on every one that is proud, and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place.
13 Hide [taman] them in the dust [this ruin, without form and void, the earth has become] together [yachad]; and bind their faces [paniym – by My Presence manifested through you] in secret [taman].
14 Then [if you can do these things as I, the LORD working and speaking, hidden in the flesh, before your eyes, alone have done] will I also confess unto you that your own right hand can save you.
15 Behold now behemoth [see the excerpt from Job 34, from the previous post with verse 7 excepted from the post of 27 March 2021 – showing this is God’s people, when they are muted {bhemah – the dumb beast the LORD heals}, no longer speaking their own words, so the LORD words can be heard], which I made with you; he eats grass as an ox [doing the LORD’s work and devouring the corruption that has grown from the earth]
16 Lo now, his strength is in his loins [this preparation now in them], and his force is in the navel [shariyr – only appearing here; it’s from sharer, meaning enemy] of his belly [they have devoured as grass].
17 He moves his tail like a cedar [as a result, they become upright]: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together [they are bound together, built into his ONE BODY, by the fear of God now in them].
18 His bones [that hold them upright] are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.
19 He is the chief [re’shiyth] of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword [His word they before refused] to approach unto him.
20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
21 He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.
22 The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
23 Behold, he drinks up a river [this word of God], and hastes not [and fearlessly repeats it]: he trusts that he can draw [bring into the light] up Jordan [uncovering the words that have carried all humanity into death] into his mouth [by speaking this word as received].
24 He takes it with his eyes [he receives this understanding when he sees as the LORD sees]: his nose [perceiving present what isn’t seen] pierces [the ear and enters the mind] through snares [mowqesh].

2 Samuel 22
3 The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence.
4 I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.
5 When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid;
6 The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death prevented me;
7 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
8 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.

Job 34
1 Furthermore Elihu [“He is God,” speaking and working unknown] answered [‘anah – as in Anathoth: the LORD answering those who’ve petitioned Him to redeem the earth] and said,
2 Hear [shama’ – obey] my words, O you wise men; and give ear unto me, you that have knowledge.
3 For the ear tries words, as the mouth tastes meat.
4 Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good.
5 For Job [God’s hated people in this generation, as well as throughout time] has said, “I am [self] righteous: and God has taken away my judgment.
6 Should I lie against my [what he thinks is] right? my wound [of ignorance] is incurable without transgression.”
7 What man is like Job, who drinks up scorning like water [the rivers of Egypt, words of oppression, which, as the Jordan, carry all men down into death – see Job 40:23, where this aspect reveals Job {God’s hated people} as the “behemoth” He there describes. This is followed, in Job 41:1, with the LORD telling us our affliction {‘aven} is, in this judgment, drawing out leviathan, which we know is the river as described in Habakkuk 3:8 above} that carry the words {pollution and corruption} of the false accuser’s {Jobs three friends}. This drawing out into the open, is the LORD, as in Isaiah 52:10 and Habakkuk 3:9, making his arm bare {His bow quite naked}. This comes, in Habakkuk 3:2, as he first hears, and then in verse 9 sees it is the LORD; which is what Job, in Job 40:5 does with first putting his hand over his mouth, which allows him to then hear and later see Him. Job 42:5 I have heard of you by the hearing of the ear: but now my eye sees you. 6 Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes {from where they are created and raised to life}.]?
8 Which goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walks with wicked men.
9 For he has said, It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself with God [seeking Him and His glory first].
10 Therefore hearken unto me you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness [mislead into destruction]; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
11 For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.
12 Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.
13 Who has given him a charge [paqad – made Him Chief Overseer] over the earth? or who has disposed [suwm – considered, and made accordingly] the whole world?
14 If he set [suwm] his heart upon man, if he gathers [‘acaph – take away, remove] unto himself his spirit and his breath;
15 All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust [the ruin of the former age, from where He was created].
16 If now you have understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words [hear the LORD in me speaking, as from the whirlwind].
17 Shall even he [the evil now in power] that hates right govern? and will you condemn him that is most just?
18 Is it fit [appropriate for you] to say to a king, You are wicked? and to princes, You are ungodly?
19 How much less [appropriate is it then] to him that accept not the persons [positions] of princes, nor regards the rich more than the poor [those without worldly power]? for they all are the work of his hands.
20 In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight [when ignorance is fully risen], and pass away [‘abar – from life into death]: and the mighty [evil in power] shall be taken away without hand.
21 For his [the LORD’s] eyes [as the Chief Overseer] are upon the ways of man, and he sees all his goings.
22 There is no darkness [ignorance], nor shadow [gendering – to regenerate in defined, known, form] of death, where the workers of iniquity [evil misleading] may hide themselves.
23 For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God.
24 He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.
25 Therefore he knows their works, and he overturns them in the night [by their own ignorance, end those thinking they’re wise to do evil], so that they are destroyed.
26 He strikes them as wicked men in the open sight of others [before the whole world where every eye sees it];
27 Because they turned back from him [as dogs to their own vomit], and would not consider any of his ways:
28 So that they cause the cry [tsa’aqah] of the poor [they oppress and abuse] to come unto him, and he hears [shama’ – obeyed: granted their request] the cry [tsa’aqah – the same cry, the petition, the LORD heard from His people in Egypt – see Exodus 3:7 & 9] of the afflicted.
29 When he gives quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hides his face [paniym – His presence], who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation [gowy – those who haven’t known Him], or against a man [‘adam] only [yachad – same word as is rendered “together” in the title verse, here it should read “or against all humanity into which I breathe My life”]:
30 That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared [in their evil time].
31 Surely it is meet [appropriate] to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement [Your correction], I will not offend any more:
32 That which I see not teach you me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.
33 Should it be according to your mind? he will recompense it, whether you refuse, or whether you choose; and not I: therefore speak what you know.
34 Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken [shama’ – become obedient] unto me.
35 Job has spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom.
36 My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers [of self-justification and self-righteousness, trying to prove their ways are right, and, therefore, refusing the LORD’s right ways] for wicked men.
37 For he adds rebellion unto his sin, he claps his hands among us, and multiplies his words against God.

The word rendered “end,” in verse 36 above, telling of the end of Job’s trials, when, after first hearing the LORD speaking in the words of Elihu, he see the LORD, as in Job 42, is the word netsach, meaning “a goal, i.e. the bright object at a distance traveled towards; hence (figuratively), splendor, or (subjectively) truthfulness, or (objectively) confidence; but usually (adverbially), continually (i.e. to the most distant point of view [seeing the LORD]).”

The word re’shiyth first appears in Genesis 1:1, there telling of when (“In the beginning”) God created (bara’) the heaven and the earth. As a side point, this first verse also contains the (almost always) untranslated word ‘eth, which indicates self. As such, the verse most assuredly should read, “In the beginning [re’shiyth], God, by Himself [‘eth, as single source of the act, in the first cause, the first fruit], created the heaven and the earth.”

John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word [from the mouth of His first begotten] was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light [understanding] of men.
5 And the light shined in darkness [that covers the world become without form and void]; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John [the dove, the same as Jonah, the sign of the end, of the age of darkness, reached].
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become [begotten, as first fruits] the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name [identity, God in me doing the work]:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

The word (re’shiyth) appears two other times in Genesis, and next in the two verses (Exodus 23:19 & 34:26) we’ve discussed describing when the “ingathering” occurs.

Exodus 23
16 And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of your labors [now when you have become the laborers the LORD of the harvest has sent into His field], which you have sown in the field [this word in the earth]: and the feast of ingathering [‘aciyph – into His ONE BODY], which is in the end of the year, when you have gathered in your labors out of the field.
17 Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the LORD God.
18 You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread [not adding to, corrupting, this word]; neither shall the fat [prospering] of my sacrifice remain [luwn – stop] until the morning [until the light, full understanding, comes].
19 The first [re’shiyth – I Am] of the firstfruits [you are] of your land [‘adamah – the people of the LORD’s new creation] you shall bring into the house of the LORD your God. You shall not seethe [nashal – ripen] a kid in his mother’s milk [the childish with words meant for his teachers].
20 Behold, I send an Angel [with MY words] before [paniym – as My presence to] you, to keep [shamar – to guard and protect you from corruption] you in the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared [this new earth into which now flows milk and honey, that you might know to choose good and refuse evil].
21 Beware of him, and obey [shama’] his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name [identity] is in him.
22 But if you shall indeed obey [shama’] his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto your enemies, and an adversary unto your adversaries.

Friends, I take no authority other than that which the LORD gave me when He made me His chosen and sent me as His identity, and He, working in me, cannot deny Himself.

Matthew 16
Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14 And they said, Some say that you are John the Baptist: some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
15 He says unto them, But whom say you that I Am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed are you, Simon Barjona [the rock, the son of Jonah: the first to come, through the gates, from the belly of hell, comprehending Me and knowing this is the end of the darkness, “in the beginning” of the chain reaction]: for flesh and blood has not revealed it unto you, but my Father which is in heaven.
18 And I say also unto you, That you are Peter, and upon this rock [first stone of many stones of the LORD’s habitation, from which His word flows] I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19 And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shall loose [understanding: uncovered light in the darkness] on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
21 From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from you, LORD: this shall not be unto you [as it has been, as the LORD, my Father, commanded].
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get you behind me, Satan: you are an offence unto me: for you savor not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life [identity, and take Mine] for my sake shall find it.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels [all His messenger awakened to this destiny]; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28 Truly I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

2 Timothy 2
1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that you have heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit you to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 You therefore 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.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
17 And their word will eat as does a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus [those who forbid your Joining with the LORD, in His ONE BODY, one flesh, as His only son, and forbidding this they hide behind the spurious mask of caring for your soul];
18 Who concerning the truth have erred [astocheo], saying that the resurrection is past already [the resurrection comes when you are freed from the lies of the false prophets and false teachers whose words and ways have carried humanity into death and hell]; and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Nevertheless the foundation [I Am] of God stands sure, having this seal, The LORD knows them that are his. And, let every one that names the name of Christ depart from [purge out, incise, exercise, work out of yourself] iniquity.
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these [the vessels of dishonor, in which remains the scum], he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified [made holy], and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the LORD out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife [the way of the wicked, argument, continuously questioning with known lies and false accusation, intended to produce endless confusion].
24 And the servant of the LORD must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil [endless questioning, using lies and false accusation, even when known to be such – with intention, leading captive silly women who are never able to come to the knowledge of the truth], who are taken captive by him at his will.

2 Timothy 3
1 This know also, that in the last days [of darkness] perilous times shall come [as they have now come].
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such [devils taking you captive] turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses [against him casting down rods which turned to serpents, which Aaron’s rod, turned into a serpent, ate] so do these also resist [satan] the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith [false prophets with not a word of God in them, speaking their own words against the son of man God sent to free His people from this oppression].
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.
10 But you have fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the LORD delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue you in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing of whom you have learned them;
15 And that from a child you have known the holy scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works [which is the good fight we fight].

2 Timothy 4
1 I charge you therefore before God, and the LORD Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
5 But watch you in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry.

Hebrews 3
1 Wherefore [He is able to recuse, succor, us from our doubt], holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling [to declare Him present, and this word as His voice], consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession [homologia – giving us His word to declare], Christ Jesus;
2 Who was [is] faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.
3 For this man was [is] counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has built the house [from the stones from where His word flows] has more honor than the house.
4 For every house is built by some man; but he that built all things is God.

Deuteronomy 33
1 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
2 And he said, The LORD came from Sinai [against the thorns], and rose up from Seir [against devils misleading us] unto them; he shined [understanding] forth from mount Paran [and made it clearly seen], and he came with ten thousands of saints [as Enoch foretold]: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
3 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in your hand: and they sat down at your feet; every one shall receive of your words.

19 They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.
20 And of Gad [the LORD’s troop, His ONE BODY: His army of light] he said, Blessed be he that enlarges Gad [gathers into His army]: he dwelleth as a lion, and tears the arm [the works of the wicked] with the crown of the head [the LORD’s authority written into our minds].
21 And he provided [ra’ah – saw first for them] the first part [re’shiyth] for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads [ro’sh] of the people, he executed the justice of the LORD, and his judgments with Israel.
22 And of Dan [His judgment] he said, Dan is a lion’s whelp: he shall leap from Bashan [by his fruitfulness, by this blessing sent].
23 And of Naphtali [who were before wrestling with His identity] he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favor, and full with the blessing of the LORD: possess you the west and the south [those upon who this light has now lighted and become their strength].
24 And of Asher [happy: joyful in His known presence] he said, Let Asher be blessed with children [who will also comprehend His presence]; let him be acceptable to his brethren, and let him dip his foot in oil [the LORD’s ways of prosperity, in this anointing].
25 Your shoes shall be iron and brass; and as your days, so shall your strength be.
26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun [God’s people who prosper when they follow His ways], who rides upon the heaven [with full understanding] in your help, and in his excellency on the sky.
27 The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before you; and shall say, Destroy them.
28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain [of life] of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew [His word appearing on the earth at the beginning of this new day].
29 Happy are you, O Israel: who is like unto you, O people saved by the LORD, the shield of your help, and who is the sword [His word sent in this judgment] of your excellency! and your enemies shall be found liars unto you; and you shall tread upon their high places.

The word re’shiyth is said to be from ro’sh, meaning “to shake; the head (as most easily shaken), whether literal or figuratively, (in many applications, of place, time, rank, etc.).” It (re’shiyth) is, with intention, actually a combining of this word and another primitive root word, shiyth, meaning “to place (in a very wide application):–apply, appoint, array, bring, consider, lay (up), let alone, X look, make, mark, put (on), + regard, set, show, be stayed, X take.”

The LORD uses this latter word twice in Job 38, in verses 11 & 36, both as he speaks of what He’s made as the beginning of the end.

Job 38
8 Or who shut up the sea [humanity] with doors, when it brake forth [with its own way and ideas], as if it had issued out of the womb [thinking to create themselves into something they made in the own evil image]?
9 When I made the cloud [the earth without the understanding held their] the garment thereof, and thick darkness [their ignorance and confusion their ways create] a swaddling-band [protecting them from themselves] for it,
10 And [by their own doing] brake up for it my decreed [choq – this appointed time and] place, and set bars and doors [holding them in the hell they created],
11 And said, Hitherto shall you come, but no further: and here shall your proud waves be stayed [shiyth – made to end, at the beginning by my word established]?
12 Have you commanded the morning [this sun to rise upon all] since your days; and caused the dayspring [shachar – dawn] to know his place;
13 That it might take hold of the ends [ending the old age and beginning the new] of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
14 It is turned as clay to the seal [this is My signature pressed into the earth]; and they stand as a garment [the covering of My flesh Body].
15 And from the wicked their light [understanding] is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.
16 Have you entered into the springs of the sea? or have you walked in the search of the depth?
17 Have the gates of death [and hell] been opened unto you? or have you seen the doors of the shadow of death?
18 Have you perceived the breadth [start to finish] of the earth? declare if you know it all.
19 Where is the way where light dwelleth [it is with God alone]? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof [which is in the earth that’s rejected Him],
20 That you shouldest take it to the bound thereof [now, when every eye sees the result of following the wicked into debilitating and dysfunctional insanity], and that you should know the paths [followed] to the house thereof?
21 Know you it, because you were then born? or because the number of your days is great?
22 Have you entered into the treasures of the snow? or have you seen the treasures of the hail [the LORD’s understanding frozen in heaven, there reserved until it’s now sent, both as purity and against the current corrupt crop of the wicked in power],
23 Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and [My just] war?
24 By what way is the light parted [into these many colors, showing the sign that I have not come to destroy, as men have, but to save, rescue the willing, from their destruction], which scatters the east wind [My Almighty Spirit working to change the minds of man] upon the earth?
25 Who has divided a watercourse [revealing, in the experience, what man’s words and ways of ignorance produce] for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder [My voice heard as the sound of understanding from the cloud];
26 To cause it to rain [My word from heaven] on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
27 To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth?
28 Has the rain a father? or who has begotten the drops of dew?
29 Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who has gendered it [brought if forth in a known form from its progenitor]?
30 The waters are hid as with a stone [in me, hidden in my flesh, from where His voice flows], and the face of [pnaiym – manifesting the LORD’s presence, revealing] the deep [that] is frozen.
31 Can you bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
32 Can you bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or can you guide Arcturus with his sons? [now, when God’s people have become as many at the stars of heaven He’s awakened, as He promised]
33 Know you the ordinances [chuqqah – the limit ordained and appointed] of heaven? can you set the dominion thereof in [by unbreakable decree, ruling] the earth?
34 Can you lift up your voice to the clouds [where My understanding is held], that abundance of waters [My words] may cover you?
35 Can you send lightnings [understanding from there], that they may go and say unto you, Here we are [as they says in me, here I Am]?
36 Who has put [shiyth] wisdom in the inward parts? or who has given understanding to the heart?

Isaiah only uses the word re’shiyth once, in Isaiah 46:10, again speaking of this moment: the end of darkness and the return of the light, in this new heaven and earth.

Isaiah 46
1 Bel [the idols of the earth, men who’ve put themselves in the LORD’s place] bows down, Nebo [the false prophet of the world, who man has followed into insanity] stoops, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast.
2 They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity [held in their own inability to change reality, the experience that has consumed them].
3 Hearken unto [shama’ – obey] me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly [out of hell], which are carried from the womb:
4 And even to your old age I Am he; and even to hoar hairs [man’s old age] will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
5 To whom will you liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
6 They [the ignorant] lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he makes it a god: they fall down, yea, they worship.
7 They [the ignorant] bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he stands; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble [tsarah – this tribulation].
8 Remember this, and show yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O you transgressors [who’ve forgotten Me and MY ways].
9 Remember the former things of old: for I Am God, and there is none else; I Am God, and there is none like me,
10 Declaring the end [‘achariyth – these last days of darkness] from the beginning [re’shiyth – this time when light has returned in the first begotten and My first fruits], and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east [as an eagle flying, the fourth face, from the place where the sun has risen], the man that executes my counsel from a far country [merchaq – this appointed time the LORD decreed]: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
12 Hearken unto [shama’ – obey] me, you stouthearted [stiff necked, whose mind’s refuse reason], that are far from righteousness:
13 I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off [rachaq – as the evil decrees that now rule the world], and my salvation shall not tarry [not be delayed any longer]: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.

Psalms 72
1 Give the king your judgments, O God, and your righteousness unto the king’s son.
2 He shall judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with judgment.
3 The mountains [his governments] shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness.
4 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor.
5 They shall fear you as long as the sun and moon [My righteous government in church and state] endure [paniym – remain in My presence], throughout all generations.
6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers [My word from heaven] that water the earth.
7 In his days [when this light has come] shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endures.
8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea [generation to generation], and from the river [this word flowing into them] unto the ends of [the old and beginning of this new age of] the earth.
9 They that dwell in the wilderness [the state of desolation] shall bow before him [paniym – in My presence]; and his enemies shall lick the dust [the ruin of the earth they destroyed].
10 The kings of Tarshish [who fled their vows] and of the isles [who were without my word] shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
11 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.
12 For he shall deliver the needy when he cries; the poor also, and him that has no helper.
13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.
14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba [these promised treasures]: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised.
16 There shall be a handful [the small beginning] of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains [in My governments]; the fruit [the first fruits] thereof shall shake like Lebanon [as purity seen on high]: and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
17 His name shall endure forever: his name shall be continued as long as [paniym – as My presence] the sun [in the Church: My ONE BODY]: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
18 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only does wondrous things.
19 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.
20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
