9 – 15 September 2025
But go you your way till the end be: for you shall rest, and stand in your lot at the end of the days.
In the above, the final verse of Daniel (12:13), the word twice rendered “end” is qets, meaning “an extremity; adverbially (with prepositional prefix) after.” As the LORD has revealed, we know this “end” of days is the days spoken of earlier in the chapter, the time and times (both from mow’ed, meaning the appointed time, of our congregation: into ONE BODY) mentioned earlier in verse 7, and the numbers of days mentioned in verses 11 and 12.
As we’ve often discussed, these numbers (the time 1290 days, added to the times, 1290 days + 1335 days) give us the number of years since Isaac’s birth (the child of the promise) and the year the LORD first (here) revealed this (formula). As we also know, this time is that which Abram (Abraham) saw when the LORD first (recorded in Genesis 15) made His covenant with him, as the time of his “deep sleep.” The awakening from this (deep sleep) is the subject of Daniel 12 (as we know, because the LORD, as foretold, has now again opened the sealed book and thereby revealed it to us, in this time “after” all that must occur has occurred).
Zechariah 14
1 Behold, the day of the LORD comes, and your spoil shall be divided in the midst of you.
2 For I will gather all nations against [the dead carcass, the dead body of Christ, who with His rising in them becomes New Heavenly] Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people [the elect remnant in whom He is already risen] shall not be cut off [karath – the same spoken of in Daniel 9:26, speaking of the LORD remaining with His elect remnant, those here realizing His presence with us, in us, saying “And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off {karath}, but not for himself {not from the elect remnant}: and the people {the carcass remaining dead} of the prince {the devils in power, in God’s place in church and state} that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end {qets} thereof shall be with a flood {sheteph – a key word, see its other uses, speaking of the evil conversation of the wicked in power}, and unto the end {qets} of the war desolations {of those warring against us with their evil words, their flatteries, their deceptions masked in their claimed good intentions} are determined {charats – decreed, as spoken of in Isaiah 28:2 & 10:22 & 23}] from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
Daniel 12
1 And at that time [of the promised end reached] shall Michael [who is made in God’s likeness] stand up [‘amad – resurrected in these last days], the great prince which stand for the children of your people: and there shall be a time of trouble [tsarah – the tribulation], such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time your people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the [now opened] book.
2 And many of them that sleep [this is Abram’s deep sleep – Genesis 15:12] in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 And they that be wise shall shine [give understanding] as the brightness of the firmament [the exposition that divides the words of men from the words of God, which God called Heaven]; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.
4 But you, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end [qets]: many shall run to and fro [diligently seeking this knowledge], and knowledge shall be increased.
5 Then I Daniel looked, and, behold [I saw], there stood other two, the one on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river [during the time when the book is sealed and opened].
6 And one said to the man clothed in linen [bad – #906, a lone voice], which was upon the waters of the river [of time carrying this word of God forward], How long shall it be to the end [qets] of these wonders?
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen [bad – #906, a lone voice] which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and swore by him that lives for ever that it shall be for a time [mow’ed – an appointed time when the book was closed], times [mow’ed – now when it is opened and we congregate into the LORD’s ONE LIVING BODY], and an half [chetsiy – when this word is split open again and rightly divided]; and when he shall have accomplished [kalah] to scatter the power [by corrupting the true word of God, and it isn’t in them effectually working to bring them to life] of the holy people, all these things shall be finished [kalah].
8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my LORD [‘adown], what shall be the end [‘achariyth – the last days] of these things?
9 And he said, Go your way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
10 Many shall be purified [barar – purged of the corruption that holds them in death’s sleep], and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
11 And from the time that the daily [necessary] sacrifice [declaring “thus says the LORD”] shall be taken away, and the abomination [men’s word’s and ways, as idols put in God’s place] that makes desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days [the time, and one of the times].
12 Blessed is he that waits, and comes to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days [the other of the times – adding the time 1290 + (to the times 1290 + 1335) = the number of years since Abram’s {Abraham’s} deep sleep began, and it was here revealed – see Genesis 15:12].
13 But go you your way till the end [qets – the full end, now when we are awakened] be: for you shall rest, and stand [‘amad – from the sleep in death be resurrected] in your lot at the end [qets – the full end] of the days [here spoken of].
Daniel (9:26) tells of this end (qets) coming “with a flood,” from the six times used word sheteph, meaning “from 7857 [shataph]; a deluge (literally or figuratively):–flood, outrageous, overflowing.”
Isaiah 28
16 Therefore, thus says the LORD God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone [from where these life-giving waters flow], a tried stone [that can be trusted], a precious corner [pinnah] stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste [they shall not be ashamed, but shall reach this promised end].
17 Judgment [this right assessment of condition] also will I lay to the line [qav], and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail [against the current crop of corrupt leaders] shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow [shataph] the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing [shataph] scourge [showt] shall pass through [‘abar – bringing you from death into life], 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 [‘abar – bringing to life those who receive it as the LORD’s voice, His work revealed], by day and by night [giving understanding to those held in darkness]: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report [shmuw’ah – the voice of the LORD heard].
Again, we know the shmuw’ah (Jehovah’s voice heard) is the same “report,” spoken of in Isaiah 53:1, which says that to those who hear it as His, it is the arm (work) of the LORD revealed.
Hebrews 12
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?
10 For they truly for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit [sumphero – to drive together, the same meaning as prokope, see 1 Timothy 4:15 and Philippians 1:15 & 25 in recent posts, speaking of when every eye shall see it], that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11 Now no chastening for the present seems to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless, afterward, it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
Earlier in Isaiah 28, in verse 15, we know this “scourge” comes against the drunken powers (in church and state), those (whose covenant is with death, who are in agreement with hell) whose pride keeps them from being corrected, who are saying “when the overflowing [shataph] scourge shall pass through (‘abar – bringing the dead to life), it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves.” The LORD’s answer is in the verses following and posted above.
Job 38
3 Gird up now your loins [prepare yourself to become] like a man; for I will demand of you, and answer you me.
4 Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth [this word of God, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was {IS} God.” John 1:1]? declare, if you have understanding.
5 Who has laid the measures [memad, from mad, meaning the word made to fit Him, as His “garment” and “armor”] thereof, if you know? or who has stretched the line [qav] upon it [who has expounded this word, as the firmament, which is heaven, line upon line]? [Isaiah 28:12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith you may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. 13 But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line {qav} upon line {qav}, line {qav} upon line {qav}; 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, you scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. 15 Because you have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing {shataph} scourge {showt} shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:]
6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened [tala’ – set upon stone, a Rock from where this word flows]? or who laid the corner [pinnah] stone thereof;
7 When the morning stars [I and the children LORD has given me, risen as lights in heaven] sang together [repeating His word as received], and all the sons of God shouted [declaring His presence] for joy [at the realization of Him with us, in us]?
8 Or who shut up the sea [humanity] with doors, when it broke forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
9 When I made the cloud [wherein this understanding was reserved for this moment] the garment thereof, and thick darkness [ignorance] a swaddling-band for it [to protect it from its own flailing],
10 And brake up [shabar] for it [for humanity] my decreed [choq] place, and set bars and doors,
11 And said [to the words of the wicked], Hitherto shall you come, but no further: and here shall your proud waves [risen among the sea] be stayed?
12 Have you [after the proud waves of men are stopped] commanded the morning [understanding to come] since your days [by your light]; and caused the dayspring to know his place;
13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth [ending the old and beginning the new], that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
14 It is turned as clay to the seal [My signature, name, identity, pressed into the earth]; and they stand as a garment.
15 And from the wicked their light is withheld, and the high arm [zroma’] shall be broken [shabar].
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 been opened unto you [that you can as I do: disannul man’s covenant with it, and break his accord with hell]? or have you seen the doors of [men’s worthless opinions that are] the shadow of death?
18 Have you perceived the breadth [its beginning and end] of the earth [ages]? declare if you know it all.
19 Where [but with God alone] is the way where light [this understanding] dwells? and as for darkness [ignorance], where [but with the wise of this corrupt world] is the place thereof,
20 That you should take it to the bound thereof [this end when the condition of the earth testifies of these men’s fecklessness], and that you shouldest know the paths to the house thereof [their ways of confusion that brought all here into mass delusion]?
21 Knowest you it, because you were then born [by coming out of confusion]? or because the number of your days [the everlasting light in you] is great [do you understand that these are the days of the deep sleep, from which I have awakened in this new day]?
22 Have you entered into the treasures of the snow [these treasures of heaven, reserved in the cloud to be sent at the moment]? or have you seen the treasures of the hail [this same word sent against the current crop of corrupt leaders],
23 Which I have reserved [in the cloud] against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?
24 By what way is the light parted [rightly divided into the bow in the cloud], which scatters the east wind upon the earth [My moving unknown, shining this understanding upon all, from east to west, at My will]?
25 Who has [rightly] divided a watercourse [t’alah – raised up what men have disused] for the overflowing [sheteph] of waters, or a way for the lightning [this understanding from the cloud] of thunder [qowl – which is My voice];
26 To cause it to rain [this word from heaven, from this place of full understanding] on the earth, where no [living] man [‘iysh – no male] is; on the wilderness [this time and place where all are without understanding], wherein there is no [living] man [‘adam – where none, until this word comes, are created by the Spirit in the word];
27 To satisfy the desolate and waste ground [without this water, this word from heaven]; and to cause the bud of the tender herb [new life on this third day of My new creation] to spring forth?
Daniel uses the word sheteph, in Daniel 11:22, speaking of the same “overflowing” end, with the flood, the scourge that passes through: the ongoing war between the north and south, Israel and Judah, in which both are destroyed (like the US, one nation first breached into two and then scattered), by their own leaders. This chapter (11) is continued in Daniel 12, which tells us this is the tribulation, in which Michael stands, followed by the dead awakening.
Daniel 11
21 And in his estate [ken – the place of the upright, the holy place, where holiness is replace with the detestable] shall stand up a vile person [this is Obama, the head of the snake, the chief conspirator, the deep state puppet master – the king of the north, Israel], to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably [by an election], and obtain the kingdom by flatteries [chalaqlaqqah – cheleq leqash, seductive doctrine, subtle deception, lies as policy].
22 And with the arms [zrowa’] of a flood [sheteph] shall they be overflown [shataph – the holy people] from before him [paniym – from the LORD’s presence, as He speaks and works unknown among them], and shall be broken [shabar]; yea, also the prince of the covenant [this is the Messiah cut off, from the people, but not from himself].
23 And after the league [chabar] made with him [the king of the north] he shall work deceitfully: for he shall come up, and shall become strong [through deception] with a small [m’at – few] people [gowy – the mouth of the deep state, those teaching and broadcasting this league, who haven’t known the LORD].
We must pause here and look at the “league” mentioned above, from the word chabar, meaning “to join (literally or figuratively); specifically (by means of spells) to fascinate.” It only appears one other time in Daniel, in Daniel 11:6, describing it as the seduction of God’s people (when all but the very elect remnant are separated from Him).
Daniel 11
6 And in the end [qets] of years they shall join themselves together [chabar]; for the king’s daughter of the south shall come to the king of the north to make an agreement [mayshar – declaring him upright: calling his evil good]: but she shall not retain the power of the arm [zrowa’]; neither shall he stand, nor his arm [zrowa’]: but she shall be given up, and they that brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened [gave understanding to] her in these times.
Daniel 11
24 He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers [as communists redistributing the wealth they seized by excessive taxation]; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices [broadcast their evil spells] against the strong holds, even for a time.
25 And he shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand [for humanity, but for themselves]: for they shall forecast devices [broadcast their evil seductions, as spells] against him.
26 Yea, they that feed of the portion of his meat [that depend on him for their pork: a portion of the taxes] shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow [shataph – by the flood broadcast]: and many shall fall down slain.
27 And both of these kings’ hearts shall be to do mischief [mera’ – only appearing here, from mah ra’a’, saying, this is that scattering, as in shabar above, breaking the people into warring factions], and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper [tsalach – their lying words shall not profit: not drive the people forward but instead backward]: for yet the end [qets] shall be at the time appointed [mow’ed].
The word chalaqlaqqah, said to mean “something very smooth; i.e. a treacherous spot; figuratively, blandishment,” appears three other times, in Daniel 11:34 rendered “flatteries,” and rendered “slippery” in Psalms 35:6 and Jeremiah 23:12.
Daniel 11
31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength [all understanding], and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination [shiqquwts] that maketh desolate.
32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries [chalaqqah – only used here, speaking of knowingly false promises – deception as policy, the Obama doctrine]: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.
33 And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
34 Now when they shall fall, they shall be helped with a little help: but many shall cleave [lavah – to mix themselves among us to corrupt truth] to them with flatteries [chalaqlaqqah – with seducing spells].
35 And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white [purity by which man sees the LORD], even to the time of the end [qets]: because it is yet for a time appointed [mow’ed].
36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation [za’am] be accomplished [kalah – comes to a full end in the destruction of the wicked]: for that that is determined [charats] shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honor the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.
Psalms 35
1 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.
2 Take hold of shield and buckler [magen and tsinnah, the armor of the house of the forest, which we look to – see Isaiah 22:8], and stand up for my help.
3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am your salvation.
4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the LORD chase them.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery [chalaqlaqqah]: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul.
8 Let destruction come upon him at unawares; and let his net that he has hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.
9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.
10 All my bones shall say, LORD, who is like unto you, which delivers the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoils him?
Jeremiah 23
1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! says the LORD.
2 Therefore thus says the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; You have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, says the LORD.
3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.
4 And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, says the LORD.
5 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The LORD Our Righteousness.
7 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the LORD, that they shall no more say, The LORD lives, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
8 But, The LORD lives, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.
9 My heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his holiness.
10 For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourns; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right.
11 For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, says the LORD.
12 Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery [chalaqlaqqah] ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein: for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, says the LORD.
The word charats, meaning “to point sharply, i.e. (literally) to wound; figuratively, to be alert, to decide,” speaks of the end of days that the LORD decreed, which no man knows.
Job 14
1 Man [‘adam – a human] that is born of a woman [‘ishshah; ‘iysh seh – an individual among the flock] is of few days and full of trouble [rogez – agitation that rages in his time].
2 He comes forth like a flower, and is [as a tree] cut down: he flees also as a shadow [tsel – one that is a product of a time without light], and continues not.
3 And do you open your eyes upon such a one [caught in such a time], and bring me into judgment with you?
4 Who [except you LORD, by His judgment] can [by the washing of regeneration by His word] bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one [man].
5 Seeing his days are determined [charats – have a decreed end], the number of his months are with you, you [LORD] have appointed his bounds [choq – the appointed time decreed] that he cannot pass [‘abar – that without You he cannot Passover from death into life];
6 Turn from him, that he may rest [sleep in the flesh], till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day [the end when the recompense comes].
7 For [as is ‘adam] there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
8 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground [‘aphar – the ashes of the earth’s ruin, from where God created the first and creates the second ‘adam];
9 Yet through the scent of water [perceiving the word of God] it will bud [be quickened to life], and bring forth boughs like a plant.
10 But man [geber – the mighty] dies, and wastes away: yea, man [‘adam] gives up the ghost [gava’ – with his last breath his unknown essence, substance, leaves his body], and where is he [no man knows]?
11 As the waters fail from the sea [as the word of God loses its original meaning, and its value is lost in the degeneration through successive generations], and the flood [of men’s corruption] decays and dries [its understanding] up:
12 So man lies down [sleeps in death unaware], and rises not: till the heavens [all understanding] be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep [until these waters are sent from the cloud in heaven where they are reserved for this moment].
13 O that you would hide me [as You have hidden me] in the grave [sheol – in hell among the sleeping dead], that you would keep me secret, until your wrath be past [and my enemies have become my footstool], that you would appoint [as you have appointed] me a set time [choq – this decreed end], and remember me [zakar, the same {identical} word rendered male in the creation of ‘adam, and the “man child” spoken of in Isaiah 66:7, the passage saying “5 Hear the word of the LORD, you that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed. 6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that renders recompense to his enemies. 7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child [zakar]. 8 Who has heard such a thing? who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. 9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? says the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? says your God.”]!
14 If a man [geber] die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time [choq – decreed end] will I wait, till my change [chaliyphah – speaking of changing our outer cover of flesh] come.
15 You shall call [to awaken me], and I [when I am awakened] will answer you [as You’ve commanded]: you will have a desire to the work of your hands [making me in Your image and likeness].
16 For now you number my steps [understanding the corruption picked up along the way]: do you not watch over [shamar – you don’t protect and defend] my sin [the corrupt offering of the wicked]?
17 My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and you sew up my iniquity [you remove {by uncovering} the things we, in our sleep, have put together: forged in Your name].
18 And surely the mountains [the high place of the earth] falling [away from good into evil] comes to naught, and the rock [the worthless governments in which the ignorant trust] is removed out of his place.
19 The waters wear the stones [that seem immovable]: [as] you [LORD] wash away the [corrupt] things which grow out of the dust [ruin] of the earth; and you [LORD] destroy the [worthless] hope of man [‘enowsh – those who remain dead flesh, waiting for their promised utopia which is now realized to be hell].
20 You prevail [taqaph] forever against him, and he passes: you change [shanah – duplicate] his countenance [paniym], and send him away [into ignorance of his own presence in hell].
21 His sons come to honor, and he knows it not; and they are brought low, but he perceives it not of them [knowing not that he is them in hell].
22 But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his [unknown] soul within him shall mourn.
Isaiah 10
16 Therefore shall the LORD, the LORD of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire.
17 And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers [misleaders and deceivers that have overgrown the neglected garden] in one day;
18 And shall consume [kalah – make a full end of] the glory of his forest [among the falsely so-called upright], and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and they shall be as when a standard-bearer [those looked to for guidance] faints.
19 And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped [the wickedness] of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon [trust] him that smote them; but shall stay upon [put their trust in] 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 appearing here and in Deuteronomy 28:65 where it is “failing” eyes] decreed [charats] shall overflow [shataph – washing away what caused eyes to fail] 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 [‘erets – the earth].
24 Therefore thus says the LORD God of hosts, O my people that dwell in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian [the communists]: he shall smite you with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against you, after the manner of Egypt.
25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation [za’am] shall cease [kalah – have a full end], 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 [those who cause endless strife among God’s people, against which Ephriam, and later others of God’s people, were called to come against] at the rock of Oreb [whose kings trust in ignorance and darkness they’ve caused]: and as his rod was upon the sea [right dividing it], so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt [and these waters, as fire from my mouth, shall consume them, as decreed – after the anointing {mashach – “until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate”} which is the final step before we rise as ONE BODY].
27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden [the enemies in power, communist oppressors, mixed among us] shall be taken away from off your shoulder, and his yoke [joining God’s people with them] from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing [shemem].
The “anointing” mentioned above in verse 26 is referenced from its use in Daniel 9:24, which also talks about it occurring after the blinding corruption comes to a full end.
The following, ending with Malachi 3, is from the post of 2 August 2023:
Daniel 9
24 Seventy weeks are determined 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 – make an end of] the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end [qets] thereof shall be with a flood [[sheteph]], and unto the end [qets] of the war desolations are determined [charats].
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation [[kalah – the full end]], and that determined [charats] shall be poured upon the desolate.
The words sheba’ (“seven,” appearing once) and shabuwa’ (“weeks,” appearing five times, and once as “week”) from sheba’, meaning “a primitive cardinal number; seven (as the sacred full one); also (adverbially) seven times; by implication, a week; by extension, an indefinite number,” are the keys to the passage.
The numbers, seventy times seven, only appear once together in the New Testament. It comes in Matthew 18:22 as the LORD is asked how many times we should forgive those who offend us. The offense is the asebeia, now reaching seventy times seven, and after that [[the completion]], “there remains no more sacrifice for sins.”
Hebrews 10
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 underfoot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and has done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him that has said, 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.
As we know, what Daniel knew about the seventy sevens, he “understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.”
The word “years” is shaneh, from the shanah, meaning “to fold, i.e. duplicate (literally or figuratively); by implication, to transmute (transitive or intransitive).”
Jeremiah 2
26 As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets [who have now changed My words these seventy times seven times, and transformed {metatithemi} it from an eusebeia [[good news: godliness]] into an asebeia [[the wickedness of the ungodly, against which Enoch saw the LORD and His saints coming]]. [[Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven {this place of full understanding} against all ungodliness {asebeias} and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in {their} unrighteousness;]]
27 Saying to a stock [the dead idols you put in My place], You are my father; and to a [lifeless] stone, You have brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble [ra’ – evil] they will say, Arise, and save us.
28 But where are your gods that you have made you? let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your trouble [ra’ – evil]: for according to the number of your cities are your gods, O Judah.
29 Wherefore will you plead with me? you all have transgressed against me, says the LORD.
30 In vain have I smitten your children; they received no correction: your own sword has devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion [[saying you are speaking the LORD’s word, when I never said it]].
31 O generation, see you the word of the LORD. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of darkness [ignorance]? wherefore say my people, We are lords; we will come no more unto you?
32 Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
33 Why trimmest you your way to seek love? therefore have you also taught the wicked ones your ways.
34 Also in your skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents: I have not found it by secret search, but upon all these.
35 Yet you say, Because I am innocent, surely his anger shall turn from me. Behold, I will plead with you, because you sayest, I have not sinned.
36 Why gad you [to go away from Me] about so much to change [shanah] your way? you also shall be ashamed of Egypt [this land of tyrants and oppression], as you were ashamed of Assyria [the communists, thieves and robbers, now infesting all institutions, making them incurably corrupt].
37 Yea, you shall go forth from him, and your hands upon your head: for the LORD has rejected your confidences [all these things in which you trust], and you shall not prosper in them.
We’re told (in the passages below) of things that will not “change” (as does the temporal), which are the unseen and the eternal things (dabar – words and matters spoken from the mouth) of God.
Psalms 89
14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of your throne: mercy and truth shall go before your face [paniym – in Your presence]
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound [the voice of the LORD]: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light [understanding] of your countenance [paniym – of Your presence].
16 In your name [identity] shall they rejoice all the day: and in your righteousness shall they be exalted [as they exalt Your words above all others].
17 For you are the glory [manifested presence] of their strength [which is their understanding]: and in your favor our horn [power and reign] shall be exalted [above all others].
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 [I Am his promised seed] my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him [as in Daniel 9:24 above]:
21 With whom my hand [work] 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 shall his horn [power and reign] be exalted.
25 I will set his hand also in the sea [his work among the people at large], and his right hand in the rivers [this work sending God’s word into the sea].
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, 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 [upon the earth].
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 [paqad – as the Chief Overseer of the earth, to return them to the right course] their transgression with the rod [the unbreakable law on nature and nature’s God], and their iniquity with stripes [of men].
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 [shanah] 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 [the rising understanding of this new day] before me.
37 It shall be established forever as the moon [civil government wherein are justice and good judgment, as I intended], and as a faithful witness in heaven [with full understanding]. Selah.
Malachi 3
1 Behold, I will send my messenger [mal’ak- My angel, who is a man of war as well as a man of God], and he shall prepare the way before me [paniym – in Him My presence is manifested]: and the LORD [‘adown – the king], whom you seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger [mal’ak] of the covenant [of My promises], whom you delight in: behold, he shall come, says the LORD [Jehovah] of hosts [who is a man of war].
2 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appears? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap:
3 And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.
4 Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years.
5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers [using their words to cast evil spells], and against the adulterers [those who’ve left Me to follow other men], and against false swearers [the now known liars and false accusers], and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages [through confiscatory taxation], the widow, and the fatherless [oppressing those without any man to protect and defend them], and that turn aside the stranger from his right [leading into evil those who don’t know Me or my ways], and fear not me [My inescapable law that inevitably brings their destruction by their own evil, of which I have often warned], says the LORD of hosts [who is a man of war, the Commander in Chief of the army of heaven].
6 For I am the LORD, I change [shanah] not; therefore you sons of Jacob are not consumed.
7 Even from the days of your fathers you are gone away from my ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, says the LORD of hosts. But you said, Wherein shall we return?
8 Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed me. But you say, Wherein have we robbed you? In tithes and offerings.
9 You are cursed with a curse: for you have robbed me, even this whole nation.
10 Bring you all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in my house, and prove me now herewith, says the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, says the LORD of hosts.
12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for you shall be a delightsome land, says the LORD of hosts.
13 Your words have been stout against me, says the LORD. Yet you say, What have we spoken so much against you?
14 You have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the LORD of hosts?
15 And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered.
16 Then they that feared the LORD spoke often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name [identity].
17 And they shall be mine, says the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels [My people who are My crown and joy]; and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son that serves him.
18 Then shall you return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked [understanding to choose the good and refuse the evil], between him that serves God [speaking truth] and him [speaking their own evil ways and ideas, their asebeia] that serves him not.
Isaiah uses the word mashach twice; first in the LORD calling His people to do it to the shield (magen), who is the LORD’s presence manifested in the flesh, and then of it as His Spirit upon the one He sends to preach these good tidings.
The first use of the word magen comes in Genesis 15:1, a chapter we know first records the LORD’s covenant with Abram (Abraham), wherein He also describes the deep sleep that would befall his progeny, beginning with Isaac and ending now.
As we know, when this covenant is restated in Genesis 22, the LORD adds that it is when His people, the children who receive Him and the promised end, will possess the gates of their enemies (their mouths as the gates of hell). It is this aspect of the covenant, this unavoidable end, that the wicked, knowingly or unknowingly, are fighting against (as in Daniel 11:28, 30, and 32).
Genesis 15
1 After [‘achar – the after now come] these things [the rescue of Lot, the blessing of Melchizedek, and the rejection of the things of Sodom: choosing good and refusing evil] the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am your shield [magen], and your exceeding great reward [sakar – meaning “payment of contract; concretely, salary, fare, maintenance; by implication, compensation, benefit:–hire, price, reward(-ed), wages, worth”].
2 And Abram said, LORD God, what will you give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus [a priesthood that is drunken, not speaking God’s word, and refusing to do His work: refusing to teach God’s people to refuse evil and choose good]?
3 And Abram said, Behold, to me you have given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
4 And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be your heir; but he that shall come forth out of your own bowels [me’ah – the generation that will come out of the belly of hell, out of the furnace mention later in verse 17, where the LORD, as a Lamp, is always with us showing the way, until our coming out, like in Jonah 2] shall be your heir.
5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven [this full understanding], and tell the stars, if you be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall your seed be.
6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
Jonah 2
1 Then Jonah [the dove, whose voices are the sign of the end reached] prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish’s belly [dagah me’ah – the source of the agitation of humanity, the evil intention, below the surface of men’s words, to gain and keep power],
2 And said, I cried by reason of my affliction [tsarah – this tribulation] 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 deep [this full circuit into understanding], in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all your billows and your waves passed over me [‘abar – to bring me from death into life again].
4 Then I said, I am cast out of your sight [no longer seeing as you see]; 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 [to the lowest degeneration of the earth ruled by tyrants in power over church and state]; the earth with her bars was about me forever: yet have you brought up my life from 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 that [to open my mouth when You call] that I have vowed [the mission on which we are sent]. Salvation [yshuw’ah – Jesus] is of the LORD [Jehovah manifesting His salvation in our flesh].
10 And the LORD spoke unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land [where this word of the LORD isn’t yet heard].
Isaiah 21
1 The burden of the desert of the sea [humanity without this word of God]. As whirlwinds [from where the LORD’s voice is heard] in the south pass [sweeping away the old ideas and ways]; so it comes from the desert, from a terrible land [yare’ – the land causing fear, see verse 4 and Isaiah 8:12 & 13, “Say you not, A confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear you their fear, nor be afraid. Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.”]
2 A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer deals treacherously, and the spoiler spoils. Go up, O Elam [eternity, as in the ancient things {God’s word} stored of old, to be released now in this war – Jeremiah 49:38 And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, says the LORD.]: besiege, O Media [people in the middle – as in lukewarm, Revelation 3:14 thru 22]; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease [when the LORD silences the enemies and puts His words in our mouths].
3 Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman that travails [to bring forth a man child]: I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it.
4 My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure has he turned into fear unto me.
5 Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, you princes, and anoint [mashach] the shield [magen].
6 For thus has the LORD said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he sees.
7 And [in this war] he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed:
8 And he cried, A Lion [the second face of the unfolding presence of]: My LORD [roaring His word], I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:
9 And, behold, here comes a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon [confusion’s rule] is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he has broken [shabar] unto the ground [‘erets – the earth].
10 O my threshing [opening the word, referring us to Isaiah 28, and destroying the gates of hell: the word from the mouths of the wicked], and the corn [ben – sons] of my [threshing] floor: that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, [as I vowed] have I declared unto you.
11 The burden of Dumah [short for Edom {Esau} and meaning the silencing of the enemies in our midst – as in verse 2 above]. He called to me out of Seir [the high places of Esau: the devils in power], Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night [the time of ignorance, which is caused by the words of the enemies mixed among us, who claim they are at peace with us while they war against us]?
12 The watchman said, The morning [understand coming as the light of the sunrise] comes, and also the night [and these men will reject this word and choose to remain in ignorance]: if you will enquire [ba’ah], enquire [ba’ah – only used three other times – here referring us to Obadiah, verse 6, where it is rendered “sought up,” which tells us this is how the secret things of Esau are revealed {by enquiring}]: return [shuwb – turn us], come.
13 The burden upon Arabia [the desert spoken of in verse 1, without water, without God’s word]. In the forest in Arabia shall you lodge, O you travelling companies of Dedanim [these people are defined in Jeremiah 49:8 – they are those spoken of in the prior verse, who return, and in doing so escape the calamity that comes upon Esau].
14 The inhabitants of the land of Tema [same as Teman – the place where the LORD appears with His ten-thousands, as Enoch said, “Behold, the LORD comes with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.”] brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented [went before] with their bread him that fled.
15 For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
16 For thus has the LORD said unto me, Within a year [that has now passed], according to the years of a hireling, and all the glory of Kedar [darkness] shall fail:
17 And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar [darkness], shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel has spoken it.
Isaiah 61
1 The Spirit of the LORD God is upon me; because the LORD has anointed [mashach] me to preach good tidings unto the meek [who shall inherit the earth]; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort [nacham – lead into all truth] all that mourn [and repent];
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might [in them] be glorified.
4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
6 But you shall be named the Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God [from whom His word flows]: you shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall you boast yourselves.
7 For your shame you shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion [inheritance]: therefore in their land [‘erets – the earth they inherit] they shall possess the double: everlasting joy [realizing the LORD with us, in us] shall be unto them.
8 For I the LORD love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD has blessed [Ephraim – meaning both double ruin and double blessing, an appellative of God’s people in this last generation].
10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation, he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom [chathan] decks himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the LORD God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
Psalms 11
1 In the LORD put I my trust: how say you to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?
2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
4 The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD’s throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
5 The LORD tries the righteous: but the wicked and him that loves violence his soul hates.
6 Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and a horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.
7 For the righteous LORD loves righteousness; his countenance [presence] does behold the upright.
