Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembers not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O LORD, behold my affliction: for the enemy has magnified himself.

12 – 17 August 2026

Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembers not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O LORD, behold my affliction: for the enemy has magnified himself.

The LORD begins today in Lamentations 1:9, a chapter where He, in Jeremiah (Jehovah rising, and with His rising raising His people who receive Him from death and hell into life and heaven), speaks of the fall of His people away from Him and thereby their losing their life.

The word rendered β€œlast end” is β€˜achariyth (speaking of this β€œafter” (β€˜achar) life β€œcome” (iythβ€”from β€˜uwth, meaning β€œproperly, to come, i.e. (implied) to assent:–consent”), as promised, at this time agreed.

The cause of death is the β€œfilthiness in her skirts,” which caused her loss of memory. When the verse says, because of this β€œshe came down wonderfully,” the word rendered β€œcame down” is yarad, referring to going to hell, meaning β€œto descend (literally, to go downwards; or conventionally to a lower region, as the shore, a boundary, the enemy, etc.; or figuratively, to fall); causatively, to bring down (in all the above applications).”

The word rendered β€œwonderfully,” speaking of the dead not knowing they are dead or in hell, wondering what they are experiencing, is pele’, meaning β€œfrom 6381; a miracle:–marvelous thing, wonder(-ful, -fully).” It is speaking of an act of God, unique to Him, which should be a recognizable β€œmark” to those awake. It is also the evidence that all are now dead, without remembrance.

Lamentations 1
1 How does the city [My people, My dead body] sit solitary [badad – alone, separated from the present and now unknown LORD], that was full of people! how is she become as a widow [when all her men are dead]! she that was great among the nations, and princess among the provinces, how is she become tributary [possessed and taxed by the communist institutions: foreign and domestic wicked powers]!
2 She weeps sore in the night [this time when darkness: ignorance of God, covers the earth], and her tears are on her cheeks: among all her lovers she has none to comfort [nacham] her [into all truth]: all her friends [like Job’s friends, through whom Satan works] have dealt treacherously with her [with misleading words, warring against her while calling it peace and safety], they are become her enemies.
3 Judah [all the leaders of God’s people, who’ve made a covenant with death, and are in agreement with hell] is gone into captivity because of affliction, and because of great servitude [where all now serve the governments meant to serve them]: she dwells among the heathen [those who don’t know the LORD, who refuse His word and way], [therefore] she finds no rest: all her persecutors overtook her between the straits.
4 The [corrupted] ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn feasts [of the LORD, to hear His word and way]: all her gates [meant to keep the enemies out] are desolate: her priests [who’ve become feckless] sigh, her virgins [who’ve never known a man] are afflicted, and she is in bitterness [from the words and ways her enemies force upon her].
5 Her adversaries are the chief, her enemies prosper; for the LORD has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions [into which her worthless leaders have led her]: her children [whose minds have been deluded and corrupted by falsehood and deception] are gone into captivity before the enemy.
6 And from the daughter of Zion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture [mir’eh – the same as mir’iyth, both from ra’ah, meaning they have no shepherd leading them into necessary {pleasant} things], and they are gone without strength [not understanding they are in a battle for their existence] before the pursuer.
7 Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths [the LORD intervening, interrupting, through Moses, to correct the course].
8 Jerusalem has grievously sinned; therefore she is removed [niydah – wander away from the LORD, truth, and life]: all that honored [with these treasures of heaven] her [now] despise her, because they have seen her nakedness [without the LORD’s righteousness, that protected against the corrupt elements of the wicked in power]: yea, she sighs, and turns backward.
9 Her filthiness [tum’ah – β€œreligious impurity”] is in her skirts [is now here protection, covering]; she remembers not her last end [β€˜achariyth – this after life now come upon her]; therefore she came down [yarad – she descended into hell] wonderfully [pele’ – without understanding, not remembering the LORD warned of this coming by these causes]: she had no comforter [nacham – none to lead her into all truth and out of death and hell; the equivalent of the Greek word parakletos]. O LORD, behold my affliction: for the enemy has magnified himself [all his words and ways above Yours].
10 The adversary [tsar – the cause of the tribulation: tsarah] has spread out his hand [evil works] upon all her pleasant [necessary] things: for she has seen [ra’ah – seeing as the LORD sees] that the heathen [gowy – those who haven’t known the LORD] entered into her sanctuary, whom you [LORD] did command that they should not enter into [the midst of] your congregation.
11 All her people [without this ingrafted understanding] sigh, they seek bread [look for salvation in Your written words]; they have given their pleasant [necessary] things [in exchange] for meat [the corrupted understanding of evil men] to relieve the soul: see, O LORD, and consider; for I am become vile [eaten up by rioters, by the corruption men add to Your word].
12 Is it nothing to you, all you that pass by? behold, and see [ra’ah] if there be any sorrow [mak’ob – pian] like unto my sorrow [mak’ob – the pain of the LORD’s chastising His people; as in Job 33:19], which is done unto me, wherewith the LORD has afflicted me [sent me to long-suffer in His name, revealing His identity, His character] in the day of his fierce anger.
13 From above has he sent [His consuming] fire [β€˜esh – see the previous post] into my bones, and it [His presence manifested in me] prevails against them: he has spread [in this firmament, His exposition of truth] a net for my feet [with which He sent me into this time of sorrow and pain], he has turned [shuwb – returning it in] me back [β€˜achowr – the same as β€˜achar; this after]: he has made [nathan – gave] me [into this time when His people are] desolate and faint [by the abomination men created and put in the LORD’s place] all the day [now when this light is come].
14 The yoke of my [people’s] transgressions is bound by his hand [hindering the free course of His word]: they are wreathed [truth and corruption are twisted together], and come up upon my neck [holding back His word]: he has made my strength [understanding] to fall [by the works of the wicked], the LORD has delivered me into their hands, from whom [and where, among the corrupt] I am not able to rise up.
15 The LORD has [in His wrath, this word refused] trodden under foot all my mighty men in the midst of me: he has called an assembly against me to [by resisting this word] crush my young men: the LORD has trodden the virgin, the daughter of Judah [of the corrupt leaders here in hell], as in a winepress [of His wrath, this word refused].
16 For these things I weep; my eye [seeing as the LORD sees], my eye runs down with water [flowing these necessary things to those in need of them], because the comforter [nacham – My Spirit unknown speaking and working, to lead all who receive Me into all truth] that should relieve [shuwb – who should return] my [and my people’s] soul is far from me [rachaq – in this time when the earth is ruled by the evil decrees of the wicked in power]: my children are [because of the abominations men created and put in My place] desolate, because the enemy prevailed.
17 Zion spreads forth her hands, and there is none to comfort [nacham] her [none to lead here into all truth]: the LORD has commanded concerning Jacob [God’s people still wrestling with Him and His word unknown], that his adversaries should be round about him: [corrupted] Jerusalem [God’s people at large] is as a menstruous woman among them [separated from the LORD because of her uncleanness].
18 The LORD is righteous; for I [the dead body of Christ] have rebelled against his commandment [telling us to give this word as received]: hear, I pray you, all people, and behold my sorrow [mak’od – My pain is your pain]: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity [and have become the possessions of the wicked through whom Satan works].
19 I called for my lovers, but they deceived me: my priests and my elders gave up the ghost [My Holy Spirit] in the [evil] city, while they sought their meat [their own understanding] to relieve their souls.
20 Behold, O LORD; for I am [with my people] in distress [tsar – by the evil of the enemies mixed among us]: my bowels [corrupt understanding in my one body] are troubled; my heart [mind] is turned within me [my one body, away from the LORD and His truth]; for I [My people who should be rising with Me] have grievously rebelled: abroad the sword [refusing this word] bereaves, at home [in My house; family, one body] there is as death.
21 They have heard that I sigh: there is none [who open their mouths as commanded] to comfort [nacham] me [into all truth]: all my enemies have heard of my trouble [β€˜ra – the evil and violence done to this word]; they are glad that you have done it [brought to light the things you warned would come]: you will bring the day [this understanding come] that you have called, and they shall be like unto me [in pain and sorrow because death had prevailed against our body].
22 Let all their wickedness [β€˜ra – evil] come before [paniym] you [be seen as My presence is manifested against it]; and do unto them, as you have done unto me [My dead body] for all my [people’s] transgressions: for my sighs [against death and hell] are many, and my [one body’s] heart [mind] is faint [lacking the strength to rise].

The above paints a bleak but honest picture of our people and our time under the prevailing influence of godless men who sit in power.

The word rendered β€œfaint,” in the last verse above, is the three-times-used word davvay, said to mean β€œsick,” from a word meaning menstruous (defiled in their own blood, their corrupt sacrifices). The other two times it appears, both rendered β€œfaint,” are in Isaiah 1:5 and Jeremiah 8:18, both chapters adding greater context to the above.

Isaiah 1
2 Hear, O heavens [where understanding should be found], and give ear, O earth: for the LORD has spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.
3 The ox knows his owner [qanah – meaning to erect, creator, and the one who has purchased us], and the ass his master’s crib [ebuwc – manger, from where we are fed]: but Israel does not know, my people does not consider [that I Am their redeemer, and this is their Master’s manger].
4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward [and fallen again into a more primitive state].
5 Why should you be stricken any more? you will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart [mind] faint [davvay – defiling the whole body].
6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.
7 Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers [communists, and their useful idiots] devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers [besieged and overgrown by misleaders], as a besieged city.
9 Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small [elect] remnant, we should have been as Sodom [a ruin], and we should have been like unto Gomorrah [in flames].
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 [paniym] me. [in My presence], 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 [accept them] away with [them]; 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 [in your corrupt institutions of church and state, besieged and now being overrun by communists and their useful idiots], 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’ – hearing and obeying Jehovah’s voice], you shall eat the good of the land [β€˜erets – earth]:
20 But if you refuse [His word] and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword [the same they refuse]: for the mouth of the LORD [Jehovah] has spoken it.
21 How is the [once] faithful city [God’s people] become a harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

Jeremiah 8
1 At that time, says the LORD, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem [all the dead who don’t know they are the dead], out of their graves [into judgment – see John 5:28 & 29 below]:
2 And they shall spread them before the sun [the corrupt and thereby ignorant churches], and the moon [civil governments equally as corrupt and ignorant], and all the host of heaven [all God’s people in whom light should be but isn’t], whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped: they shall not be gathered [into My ONE BODY], nor be buried [because they are the wicked: the dead alive in the flesh on the earth]; they shall be for dung upon the face of the earth.
3 And death [to remain corrupt and ignorant] shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of them that [refusing to receive the light] remain of this evil family, which remain in all the places whither I have driven them [into self-inflicted insanity, not able to distinguish between this reality and their created delusions], 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 [from following the wicked into corruption].
6 I hearkened and heard, but they spoke not aright: no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? everyone turned to his course [his own way], as the horse rushes into the battle [to hasten their own end].
7 Yea, the stork in the heaven knows her appointed times [of the birth of the children]; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time [season] of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the LORD.
8 How do you [who say you know times and seasons] say, “We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made He it [the word sent to give you understanding you say you have but don’t]; the pen of the scribes [this writing of the LORD] is in vain [worthless].”
9 The wise men are ashamed [when their words are found to be worthless], they are dismayed [chathath] and taken [lakad]: lo, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?
10 Therefore will I give their wives [those who follow them as leaders and protectors] unto others, and their fields to them that shall inherit them [to the heirs of salvation who’ve received this word as the word of God, which it is]: for everyone from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness, from the prophet even unto the priest everyone deals falsely.
11 For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace [be at ease and rest securely in your lies]; when there is no peace [while they do nothing to combat the enemies mixed among you, who are at war with you, to destroy you, this nation, and the world, by destroying our better Christian culture].
12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abominations [the creations these misleaders put in God’s place, destroying all truth]? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall [and will not rise again into life]: in the time of their visitation [pquddah – now, when He is present as the Chief Overseer of the earth] they shall be cast down [into hell they’ve chosen], 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 [into MY ONE BODY], and let us enter into the defensed cities, and let us be silent there [no longer speaking our own vain words in the Father’s name]: for the LORD our God has put us to silence, and given us water of gall [our own bitter words] 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 [running into the battel] 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 [holy] city, and those that dwell therein.
17 For, behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices, among you [whose poison is in their words], 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 [My people’s collective mind] is faint [davvay – without strength, without understanding] 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 [sheber] of the daughter of my people am I hurt [shabar – My one body is broken into pieces]; I am black [My dead body chooses to remain in ignorance]; astonishment has taken hold on me [I cannot fathom why humanity refuses to be saved].
22 Is there no balm in Gilead [the cure is in this testimony]; is there no physician [I Am] there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered [the answer is – a cure rejected isn’t a cure]?

John 5
19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Truly, truly, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do: for what things soever he does, these also does the Son likewise.
20 For the Father loves [phileo – is a friend to] the Son, and shows him all things that himself does: and he will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel [thaumazo – wonder what you are experiencing].
21 For as the Father raises up the dead, and quicken them [from death and hell into life and heaven]; even so the Son quickens whom he will.
22 For the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 That all men should honor [timao] the Son, even as they honor [timao] the Father. He that honors not the Son honors not the Father which has sent him.
24 Truly, truly, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believes on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
25 Truly, truly, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear [this voice as Him and His] shall live.
26 For as the Father has life in himself; so has he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 And has given him authority to execute judgment [krisis – this decision point] also, because he is the Son of man.
28 Marvel [thaumazo – wonder] not at this [you should now understand that you are experiencing the LORD’s judgment which quickens the dead], for the hour is coming [erchomai – of these necessary utterances heard], in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his [the Father’s from the son] voice [which is death’s cure],
29 And shall come forth; they that have done [poieo] good, unto the resurrection [anastasis] of life; and they that have done [prasso] evil, unto the resurrection [anastasis] of damnation [krisis]. [The meaning of the word anastasis doesn’t tell of it, but of its means: β€œa standing up again, i.e. (literally) a resurrection from death (individual, genitive case or by implication, (its author)), or (figuratively) a (moral) recovery (of spiritual truth).”] [John 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn {krino – to choose for} the world; but that the world through him might {choose to} be saved. 18 He that believes on him is {by this choice} not condemned {krino}: but he that believes not is {by this choice} condemned {krino} already, because he has not believed in the name {identity} of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the {choice of} condemnation {krisis – the decision by which men condemn themselves], that light {this understanding} is come {erchomai – through these necessary utterances} into the world, and men loved {agapao – continued to lead (ago) away (apo) into} darkness {ignorance, which is death and its resulting confusion, delusion, and insanity} rather than light {understanding and life}, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that does {prasso} evil hates the light {understanding and life}, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved {elegcho – confuted: proven wrong and corrected}.]
30 I can of my own self do [poieo] nothing [good]: as I hear [and obey the voice of the Father alive in me], I judge [krino – I have made the choice to believe and act upon the truth and reality that it is Him giving us His good things]: and my judgment [krisis – decision] is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father which has sent me.
31 If I bear witness of myself [saying the good in me originates in me], my witness is not true.
32 There is another that bear witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
33 You sent unto John [Jonah, the dove, the sign of the end: calling all to repentance and mercy], and he bare witness unto the truth. [John 1:29 & 30, saying β€œBehold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me [the word of God in the beginning.”]
34 But I receive not testimony from man [but in man the Father testifies of Himself with us, in us]: but these things I say, that you might [by receiving Him and His word] be saved.
35 He was a burning and a shining light [Jehovah, the Father alive in Him as a consuming fire sending this understanding against the pervading ignorance of the day]: and you were willing for a season to rejoice in his light [until he confronted the powers and the unfaithful with which they are joined].
36 But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father has given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent me.
37 And the Father himself, which has sent me, has borne witness of me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape [because He is the Spirit and truth in the flesh speaking and working unknown, until He reveals Himself in those who’ve received Him and His word]
38 And you have not his word abiding in you: for whom he has sent, him you believe not.
39 Search the scriptures; for in them you think you have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
40 And you will not come to me [to receive this ingrafted understanding of the written word], that you might have life.
41 I receive not honor [doxa – the apparent glory of the Father] from men.
42 But I know you, that you have not the love of [agape – this word given by] God [dwelling] in you.
43 I Am come in my Father’s name [identity, revealed in me], and you receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive.
44 How can you believe, which receive honor [doxa – showing His own mind] one of another, and seek not the honor [doxa – the apparent glory and truth] that comes from God only?
45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuses you, even Moses [the written word, the scriptures], in whom you trust [in which you put you hope of eternal life].
46 For had you believed Moses, you would have believed me; for he wrote of me.
47 But if you believe not his writings, how shall you believe my words?

Friends, the above passage ends by telling of the church’s quandary: to believe or not believe that the LORD does, at inflection points, moments of great magnitude, speak through those He ordains and chooses, rising from the dead to quicken (the church) from the dead those who receive Him therein, in His words and works.

As we know, the written (God-breathed) word of God that paranormally describes experiences past is sent forward into the same patterns experienced in the present, by the LORD’s Spirit leading us into all truth, to reveal the understanding held therein. It is the many times discussed wheel within a wheel, seen and described by Ezekiel as the unfolding manifestation of the LORD’s presence in the conversation with us, awakening in us when (He is) realized.

This is the authentic and authorized exegesis: the word of God, the truth therein found and correctly expounded. It is not the teaching of the modern church, which has no idea where the LORD is, while it is totally oblivious that they are, in fact, His dead body, of which they are also morbidly unaware.

Luke 24
1 Now upon the first day of the week [sabbaton – the sabbath, the LORD beginning the new creation, interrupting the darkness with His light come: β€œIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was [is] God” John 1:1, the first word that follow this chapter], very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulcher [the churches that house the dead body of Christ, out of which it is raised into His glory], bringing the spices which they had prepared [to cover the smell of death, by which it is perceived even if not seen], and certain others with them.
2 And they found the stone rolled [covering the mouth] away from the sepulcher [removed so they could see that the risen body of Christ isn’t there].
3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the LORD Jesus.
4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed [diaporeo – from words meaning they were, are, totally unaware of what they were, are, experiencing] thereabout, behold, two men [witnesses] stood [ephistemi – stood upon the Rock, from where flow the word of the LORD] by them in shining [astrapto – as stars, β€œflashing as lightning” in the darkness, with this understanding from the cloud] garments [which protects them from the corrupt elements {stoicheion} of the world, the rudiments of the world, errors, sins, to and by which men are in bondage]:
5 And as they were afraid [emphobos – β€œin fear, i.e. alarmed” by what they couldn’t understand], and bowed down [humbled at the realization of their ignorance] their faces to the [of corrupt understanding of the] earth, they [the LORD’s messengers] said unto them, Why seek you the living [Body of Christ] among the dead [housed in the churches]?
6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spoke unto you when he was yet in Galilee [Galilaia – a circle, from the same origin as the Hebrew word rendered wheel, in the sense of something β€œrolled” {away}, as in what is referred to here, which the LORD did, does, in Galilee],
7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men [who, betraying Him, will corrupt, have corrupt, all the understanding He left with them, to be guarded and protected from it], and be [and they instead] crucified [Him], and the third day rise [anistemi] again [from corruption, the earth’s ruin; by first hearing Him while He is unknown, and then seeing with eyes that sees as He does].
8 And [after He reminded them] they remembered his words,
9 And returned [to their right minds, by remembrance] from the sepulcher [away from the places that house the dead], and told all these things unto the eleven [the number of confusion, those not yet understanding what they are experiencing], and to all the rest.
10 It was Mary [Martha – those rebelling against the status quo among the dead body of Christ] Magdalene [with affinity to Megiddo, meaning this time of the appointed rendezvous] and Joanna [that same as Jonah and John, meaning the dove: the sign of the expected end reached], and Mary [Martha – the rebels who are also] the mother of James [Jacob – the whole family of the LORD, in this new creation], and other women [the others who have come out from among the dead] that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles [the followers of the LORD who are still sleeping in ignorance of Him with us, in us].
11 And their words [given as received, hearing from His messengers about His resurrection] seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
12 Then arose [anistemi] Peter [the first of the deniers to seriously examine, consider, what they heard], and ran unto the sepulcher; and stooping down [humbling himself, to investigate the evidence], he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass [in what he was experiencing].
13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus [with affinity to the word emos, meaning they are still going their own way], which was from Jerusalem [away from the teaching that flowed from the LORD] about threescore furlongs [about 7.5 miles].
14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened [the experience].
15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together [in conversation among themselves] and reasoned [suzeteo – to investigate among themselves], Jesus himself drew near [eggizo – along side them, unknown as the parakletos, to lead them into all truth], and went with them. [Romans 13:12 The night {the time of ignorance} is far spent, the day {the time of understanding} is at hand {eggizo}: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. James 4:8 Draw nigh {eggizo} to God, and he will draw nigh {eggizo} to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts {mind – by which we see the LORD}, you double minded. 1 Peter 4:7 But the end {telos – the conclusion} of all things {of the LORD’s work} is at hand {eggizo}: be you therefore sober {in your right mind}, and watch unto prayer {this conversation with the LORD, wherein we see Him, β€œthe same yesterday, today, and forever” which is the conclusion of our conversation with Him}.]
16 But their eyes were held [by their own ignorance, revealed in their conversation without Him] that they should not know him.
17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that you have one to another, as you walk [your own way], and are sad?
18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas [with affinity to pas, meaning all things or whole, and kleos, meaning renown or glory; speaking of all the renowned leaders and teachers, who are ignorantly going their own way] answering said unto him, Are you only a stranger in Jerusalem [unknown among God people], and have not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh] of Nazareth [from the Hebrew word nazar, telling the one separated from God’s people’s sight, as was Joseph, unknown to his brethren even when they were in his presence], which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, today is the third day [the time when new life comes to the earth, on this third day of His new creation] since these things were done.
22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished [existemi – showed them, the men of renown, to be out of their right minds], which were early at the sepulcher [showing they are the dead, remaining among the dead, separated from the One who is, from there, risen to life];
23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels [His messengers telling them what they were experiencing], which said that he was alive.
24 And certain of them which were with us [out of our minds, remaining in ignorance] went to the sepulcher, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart [mind] to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory [the Father revealed alive with us, in Him first]?
27 And beginning at Moses [as referred to in John 5:46 & 47 above] and all the prophets, he expounded [in this firmament, this exposition of the engrafted word, this authentic exegesis] unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 And they drew nigh [eggizo] unto the village [emos – the limit of their own understanding], whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further [allowing them to continue in their ignorant conversation].
29 But they constrained him [parabiazomai – forced Him, by their inability to grasp the meaning in His word, against His nature, to continue with them as they ignorantly looked for the way], saying, Abide with us [here in our ignorance]: for it is toward evening [our understand of the darkness is coming], and the day [our corrupt understanding] is far spent [as in Roman 13:12 above]. And he went in to tarry [long-suffer among them still unknown] with them.
30 And it came to pass [when they learned the milk, the first principles of understanding, the foundation upon which the {meat} deep meanings are built, line and precept upon line and precept], as he sat at meat with them [to give them the conclusion, the completion, of this conversation, wherein we look for Him], he took bread [this written word of God, from His mouth, manna of which all are ignorant], and blessed it, and brake [revealing the deep therein], and gave to them [as received from the Father alive with Him, in Him].
31 And their eyes [of understanding] were opened, and they knew him [alive in the flesh in which He chose to reveal Himself]; and he vanished [from ginomai, meaning come into being {generated} and ephantos {only appearing here}, meaning from phaino, and phanos; these telling of becoming invisible] out of [apo – away from] their sight [unseen and realized to be the thoughts now in their minds]. [John 1:18 No man has seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him. 1 John 4:12 No man has seen God at any time. If we love {agape – leading {ago} away {apo} from darkness, by giving understanding through giving His word as received} one another, God dwells in us {unseen by human eyes, but seen apparent in His thoughts now in us}, and his love {word given} is perfected {teleioo – accomplished, completed} in us. 13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit {unseeable by human eyes or flesh covered minds}.]
32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he [by opening our spiritual eyes, to see as the Father sees] opened to us the scriptures [the deep meaning, reserved for His use in this moment, in His written word]?
33 And they rose up [anistemi] the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem [the original teaching that now again flows from the LORD into His people], and found the eleven [those remaining in ignorance and its resulting confusion], gathered together, and them that were with them,
34 Saying, The LORD is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon [Peter – the Rock from where this word flows, against which the gates of hell, men’s open mouths, will not prevail].
35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread [giving this word as received from the mouth of the LORD, by which man lives].
36 And as they thus spoke, Jesus himself [manifested in the conversation] stood in the midst of them, and says unto them, Peace be unto you [New Heavenly Jerusalem, God’s people into whom His word has flowed His mind].
37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
38 And he said unto them, Why are you troubled [by remaining with the abomination men created, put in My place, and call by My name]? and why do thoughts arise [why do you exalt your corrupted ideas above My pure word] in your hearts [minds]?
39 Behold my hands and my feet [you have seen my works and ways], that [in them] it is I myself: handle me, and see [it is Me veiled in the flesh I have chosen]; for a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see me have.
40 And when he had thus spoken, he showed them his hands and his feet [His works and ways, here long suffering, in this necessary sacrifice unknown in the flesh He has chosen].
41 And while they yet believed not for joy [not yet realizing it is Him present with us, in us], and wondered [still not knowing what they are experiencing], he said unto them, Have you here any meat [have you received any of this deep understanding]?
42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish [speaking the word of life, that were unseen below the surface of the waters], and of a honeycomb [the systematic order and truth found therein, which is His strength with us, in us].
43 And he took it, and did eat before them.
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spoke unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things [pas – all things that were before corrupted] must be fulfilled [pleroo – completed, in this conversation], which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
45 Then opened he [the spiritual eyes of] their understanding, that they [now seeing as the LORD sees] might understand the scriptures,
46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise [anistemi] from the dead the third day [of this new creation]:
47 And that repentance and remission [aphesis – freedom and liberty] of sins [hamartia – this time without the daily sacrifice, without witnessing to this word as received] should be preached in his name [identity] among all nations, beginning [first] at Jerusalem [among God’s people predestined to receive Him].
48 And you are witnesses [martus] of these things.
49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry you in the city of Jerusalem [in this word that flows from Him, which is here and now completed], until you be endued with power from on high. [Joel 2:23 Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he has given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain {this word from the cloud}, the former rain {His written word}, and the latter rain {His ingrafted word} in the first month. Psalms 16:10 For you will not leave my soul in hell; neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. 11 You will show me the path of life: in your presence {paniym} is fulness of joy {the completion of our realization of You with us, in us}; at your right hand {Your works and power} there are pleasures for evermore.]
50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany [the fruitful house that is now in misery], and he lifted up his hands, and [by His work] blessed them.
51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them [with His presence in them], he was parted from them [no longer beside them unknown, but now in them], and carried up into heaven.
52 And they worshipped [proskuneo – emulated] him [become His likeness], and returned to Jerusalem [the LORD’s teaching, by which we become His children and habitation] with great joy [the realization of His presence with us, in us]:
53 And were continually in the temple [the general assembly of the church of the first begotten from the dead], praising and blessing [in the name: the manner, of] God. Amen.

Philippians 1
26 That your rejoicing [realization of the presence of the LORD] may be more abundant in Jesus Christ [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in our flesh] for me by my coming [parousia – meaning β€œa being near, i.e. advent”] to you again.
27 Only let your conversation [politeuomai – the evidence of a good citizen, in whose words the LORD is manifested] be as it becometh the gospel of Christ [the good news of the LORD with us, in us]: that whether I come [erchomai – with these necessary utterances] and see you [also emulating Him], or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in One Spirit, with One mind striving together for the faith of [so others will believe and realize as we do, that He is with us, in us, by hearing] the gospel;
28 And in nothing terrified [into silence] by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition [apoleia – that comes by their endlessly wrestling with His word], but to you of salvation [by the same word], and that of [you, offered to all by] God [through us].
29 For unto you it [this gospel] is given [charizomai – charisma: the LORD’s forgiveness and rescue] in the behalf of [huper – which is His identity, manner expressed, above all names] Christ [the LORD manifesting His presence in our flesh], not only to believe on him, but also to [necessarily] suffer for his sake;
30 Having the same conflict which you saw in me [wanting to rest in peace, but also knowing we must long-suffer in His name: identity, manner], and now hear to be in me.

Philippians 2
1 If there be therefore any consolation [paraklesis – klesis meaning an invitation] in[to] Christ, if any comfort of [paramuthion – only used here, meaning to lay aside myths by] love [agape – giving this word as received], if any fellowship of [koinonia – joint participation with] the Spirit, if any bowels [a mind that shows β€œkindness, benevolence, compassion”] and mercies,
2 Fulfil you my joy [that others by these things realize the LORD is with them, in us], that you be likeminded, having the same love, being of One accord, of One mind.
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of [a humble] mind let each esteem other better than themselves [and we therefore long-suffer for them, for Christ’s sake].
4 Look not every man on his own things [he has learned], but every man also on the things of others [giving them this understanding as it is received from the LORD].
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form [morphe – become the nature, manner] of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with [isos – likeness of] God:
7 But made himself of no reputation [the nature of Jehovah, as expressed in the pattern seen in Ahasuerus meaning “I will be silent and poor {without worldly power}”], and took upon him the form [morphe] of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men [in whom He manifests His presence in this manner, the first face Ezekiel saw in the wheel within a wheel]:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross [the necessary sacrifice, long-suffering to give His gospel and declare Him present therein].
9 Wherefore God also has highly exalted him, and given [charizomai – charisma, His manner: forgiveness and rescue] him a name [an identity, Him manifested] which is above [huper] every name [all others]:
10 That at the name of Jesus [the identity of Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh He chooses] every knee should bow [subordinating to His presence], of things in heaven [where understanding is found], and things in earth [without understanding], and things under the earth [the dead in hell];
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [that Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh] is [the] LORD, to the glory [openly manifesting the presence] of God the Father.
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed [subordinated your minds to the LORD’s], not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence [when His presence is realized and declared], work out your own salvation [removing corruption from your minds] with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God [by His word in you] which [effectually] works in you both to will [as He wills] and to do of his good pleasure [which is the salvation of all who receive Him].
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 [giving this understanding from the LORD] in the world;
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day [light, understanding] of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither labored in vain [for your Salvation].
17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the [necessary, daily] sacrifice and service of your faith [now come], I joy [in the realization that Christ is formed in you], and rejoice [for the same realization] with you all.
18 For the same cause [this realization] also do you joy, and rejoice with me.
19 But I trust in the LORD Jesus to send Timotheus [time of God, time meaning β€œa value, i.e. money paid, or (concretely and collectively) valuables; by analogy, esteem (especially of the highest degree), or the dignity itself”] shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state [that I might rejoice in Christ manifested in you, which is His victory over the world, death, and hell].
20 For I have no man likeminded [isopsuchos – isos psuche, meaning in the likeness of His Spirit], who will naturally [gnesios – meaning β€œgenuinely, i.e. really,” ultimately from ginomai, meaning β€œto cause to be (“gen”-erate), i.e. (reflexively) to become (come into being),” to] 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 [I Am he is] a son with the Father, he has served [jointly participated with the same One Spirit] with me in the gospel.

Friends, the word pele’, rendered β€œwonderfully” in Lamentations 1:9 above, as Jeremiah speaks of God’s people, along with all humanity, descending into death and hell, is given the meaning of β€œfrom 6381; a miracle:–marvelous thing, wonder(-ful, -fully).” It is from the word pala’, meaning β€œto separate, i.e. distinguish (literally or figuratively); by implication, to be (causatively, make) great, difficult, wonderful.”

These words tell of ending the wondering, by the LORD distinguishing between those who know Him and those who don’t.

Isaiah 29
13 Wherefore the LORD said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth [taking My name in vain], and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their heart [the foundations of their mind – their stiocheion, the elements of their understanding, are corrupt and disordered] far from me [rachaq – in this time when the earth is ruled by the evil decrees of the wicked in power], and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men [who haven’t known Me]:
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous [pala’ – distinguishing whose eyes are opened] work among this people, even a marvelous [pala’ – distinguishing] work and a wonder [pele’ – at which all have wondered]: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their [wicked] counsel [‘etsah] from the LORD, and their works are in the dark [their own ignorance of reality and truth they can’t understand because it is to them a foreign language], and they say, Who sees us? and who knows us?
16 Surely your turning of things upside down [the overthrow] shall be esteemed as the potter’s [yatsar] clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed [yatser] say of him that framed [yatsar] it, He had no understanding?
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon [purity seen in high places] shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest [of upright men]?
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words [this word] of the book [cepher], and the eyes of the blind shall see [again] out of obscurity [β€˜ophel – dusk, when light has left], and out of darkness [by coming out of ignorance].
19 The meek [who shall inherit the earth] also shall increase their joy in the [realization of the] LORD, and the poor [those without worldly power] among men shall rejoice in the [realization of the] Holy One of Israel [with whom the light has returned].
20 For the terrible one is brought to naught, and the scorner [luwts – those mocking His coming, because all they know is their own false interpretations] is consumed [kalah – is completely ended], and all that watch for [to protect and defend] iniquity are cut off:
21 That make a man an offender for a word [speaking truth], and lay a snare [their own ignorant opinions] for him that reproves in the gate [against these men’s mouths that are holding all in death and hell], and turn aside the just for a thing of naught [their worthless opinions].
22 Therefore thus says the LORD, who redeemed [padah] Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale [but they will reach the end promised].
23 But when he sees his children [who have been born again out of death and hell], the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name [declare My identity Holy], and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured [against me] shall learn doctrine.

Isaiah 9
5 For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood [of this necessary sacrifice]; but this shall be with [their works: the wisdom of the their wise men and the understanding of the prudent men] burning and fuel of fire.
6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name [identity] shall be called Wonderful [pele’], Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to [rightly] order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts [a man of unyielding war] will perform this.
8 The LORD sent a word into Jacob, and it has lighted upon Israel.

14 Therefore the LORD will cut off [karath] from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.
15 The ancient and honorable [who should know Me but hasn’t], he is the head; and the prophet [angels who’ve left their first estate] that teaches lies, he is the tail.
16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.

Exodus 15
6 Your right hand [the power in Your word and work], O LORD, is become glorious in power: your right hand, O LORD, has dashed in pieces the enemy.
7 And in the greatness of your excellency you have overthrown them that rose up against you: you sent forth your wrath [in this word refused], which [as a fire from Your mouth] consumed them as stubble.
8 And with the blast of your nostrils the waters were gathered together [into this exposition], the floods stood upright as a heap, and the depths [the separated elements of understanding] were congealed in the heart [in the minds] of the sea [of the people who have received this word as Yours, as it is].
9 The enemy said, β€œI will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.”
10 You did blow with your wind [Your Almighty Spirit moving upon the surface of the waters, revealing this meaning hidden in its darkened deep], the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.
11 Who is like unto you, O LORD, among the [false] gods [men who put themselves in your place]? who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders [pele’]?
12 You stretched out your right hand, the earth swallowed them [into the belly of hell].
13 You in your mercy have led forth [out of death and hell] the people which you have redeemed: you have guided them in your strength [understanding] unto [becoming] your holy habitation.

Psalms 77
11 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember your wonders [pele’] of old.
12 I will meditate also of all your work, and talk [siyach – ponder] of your doings.
13 Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary [in your presence]: who is so great a God as our God?
14 You are the God that does wonders [pele’]: you have declared your strength [understanding] among the people.
15 You have with your arm [the power of Your word and work] redeemed your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16 The waters [Your written word] saw you, O God, the waters saw you; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled [ragaz].
17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound [qowl – Your voice]: your arrows also went abroad.
18 The voice [qowl] of your thunder was in the heaven [galgal – in the wheel within a wheel]: the lightnings lightened [gave understanding to] the world: the earth trembled [ragaz] and shook [ra’ash – to shake the wicked from it].
19 Your way is in the sea [among your people at large; with them, in them], and your path in the great waters [Your word by which you work], and your footsteps are not known [until You have passed by, and then seen flying as an eagle].

Psalms 119
119 You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross [in your refining fire]: therefore I love your testimonies.
120 My flesh trembles for fear of you; and I am afraid of your judgments.
121 I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to my oppressors.
122 Be surety [security] for your servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.
123 My eyes fail for [kalah – my own understanding ends, so I can see] your salvation [yshuw’ah – Jehovah’s Salvation in the flesh You have chosen], and for [to see] the word of your righteousness.
124 Deal with your servant according unto your mercy, and teach me your statutes.
125 I am your servant; give me understanding, that I may know your testimonies.
126 It is time for you, LORD, to work: for they [the wicked who put themselves in Your place] have made void your law.
127 Therefore I love your commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.
128 Therefore I esteem all your precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.
129 Your testimonies are wonderful [pele’]: therefore does my soul keep [natsar – guard, from man’s corruption] them.
130 The entrance of your words gives light [and life]; it gives understanding unto the simple.
131 I opened my mouth [to receive and give Your word], and panted: for I longed for your commandments.
132 Look you upon me, and be merciful unto me, as you usest to do unto those that love your name.
133 Order my steps in your word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
134 Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep your precepts.
135 Make your face [paniym – Your presence] to shine [Your light, understanding, and life] upon your servant; and teach me your statutes.

Isaiah 25
1 O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you [Your voice above all others], I will praise your name; for you have done wonderful [pele’] things; your counsels [‘etsah – Your voice advising to choose good and refuse evil] of old are faithfulness and truth.
2 For you have [as Sodom and Gomorrah] made of a city a heap; of a defensed city a ruin: a palace of strangers [the church and state institution estranged from You] to be no city; it shall never be built.
3 Therefore shall the strong people [You’ve given understanding] glorify you, the city of the terrible [‘ariyts – tyrants in power] nations [who don’t know You] shall fear you.
4 For you have been a strength to the poor [those without worldly power], a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast [of lies] of the terrible ones [‘ariyts – tyrants in power] is as a storm against the wall [Your truth in which we trust].
5 You shall bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; even the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones [‘ariyts – tyrants in power] shall be brought low.
6 And in this mountain [har – this is referring to the word mahar {to what mountain: ma-har}, where we hasten to be strengthened] shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.
7 And he will destroy in this mountain [har] the face [the presence] of the covering [lowt] cast [luwt] over all people, and the vail [maccekah – this is the molten calf Aaron made, to scratch the people’s itching ears – the same itch {molten images} that caused Lot’s daughters to go into their father’s bed – it {maccekah} is referring us to its later uses in Isaiah] that is spread over all nations [over all those who don’t know Me, even My people {as daughters of Lot} who say they know me while they worship idols created, put in My place, and called by My name].
8 He will swallow up [the words of] death in victory [quoted in 1 Corinthians 15:54, the change when the corrupt mortal has put on incorruption and immortality]; and the LORD God will wipe away tears from off all faces [quoted in Revelation 7:17 & 21:4]; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD has spoken it. [Revelation 7:17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former {corrupt} things are passed away.]
9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
10 For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab [the mouths of men as the gates holding God’s people in death, in hell, Sheol, the habitation of the dead] shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill [madmenah: Madmen – the unrepentant, who remain in death, the willingly insane as the excrement of the earth].

Psalms 16
1 Preserve me, O God: for in you do I put my trust.
2 O my soul, you have said unto the LORD, You are my LORD: my [giving Your] goodness extends not to you;
3 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: you maintain my lot.
6 The lines are [my lineage is] fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage [seed in whom I have risen].
7 I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel: my reins [the inner man I Am] also instruct me in the night seasons [this time of ignorance when darkness covers the world].
8 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved [as in Psalms 15:5].
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices [knowing He is present with me, in me]: my flesh also shall rest in hope [that in it He shall raise me to life again].
10 For you will not leave my soul [my immortal self] in hell; neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption.
11 You will [here in hell] show me the path of [the way into] life: in your presence [paniym] is fulness of joy [fulfilled in the realization of Your presence always with me, in me]; at your right hand [Your power by which I Am risen] there are pleasures for evermore.

Then Daniel answered and said before the king, β€œLet your gifts be to yourself, and give your rewards to another; yet I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.”

4 – 10 August 2026

The above, Daniel 5:17, comes as Daniel (the judgment of God) is pronouncing the sentence against the king (Belshazzarβ€”a name telling us he is the protector and defender of, and protected by, the idols men created and put in the LORD’s place, and called by His name).

Not coincidentally, Daniel is elsewhere (in Daniel 1:7 and 10:1) also called Belteshazzar, which is said to mean he is the β€œLORD of the straitened’s [the oppressed’s] treasure.” In Daniel 5, Belshazzar is said to have taken these treasures from the LORD’s house, recklessly corrupted them, and superficially worshipped them.

The chapter (Daniel 5) also speaks of the end of his (Belshazzar’s) rule, and his replacement by Darius the Median, the father of Cyrus. The name Darius (Daryowesh – said to mean LORD, an appellative given to Astyages) deconstructs into the words and name, dar (from dowr), Jehovah, and β€˜esh (or β€˜ashur – step), meaning the generation, or age, of Jehovah’s fire (flame).

The Chaldean word β€˜esh appears only once, in Daniel 7:11 (the numbers meaning it is the end of the age, or generation, of confusion), where it is used to describe the effect of the appearance of the holy one, called the Ancient of Days.

The (Chaldean) word dar appears only four times, all in Daniel 4, speaking of when Nebuchadnezzar again came to his right mind and realized the LORD does intervene in the affairs of man, and that His kingdom is from β€œgeneration” to β€œgeneration,” removing and raising to the throne whomsoever He chooses.

The word (appearing in Daniel 7 only) rendered β€œancient” is the thrice-used (Chaldean) word β€˜attiyq, said to mean venerable. It is from an almost identical, twice-used Hebrew word (β€˜attiyq), which first appears in 1 Chronicles 4:22 and later in Isaiah 28:9. As we know, in the first use it is speaking of the β€œancient” things revealed there in the names used in the verse, and in the latter, rendered β€œdrawn from the breast,” it speaks of those the LORD teaches knowledge and doctrine.

The word (in Isaiah 28:9) rendered β€œdoctrine” is shmuw’ah, a Hebrew word compounding the word shama’ (to hear and obey) and the name Jehovah. It (shmuw’ah) is the word later in verse 19 rendered β€œreport,” which is the scourge of the LORD’s correction, which all know is coming, but the self-righteous do not believe it when it comes, morning by morning, line upon line and precept upon precept, because it is against them. We are also told these men, who refuse the LORD’s correction, do so because they have made a β€œcovenant with death” (which shall be disannulled) and β€œare in agreement with hell.”

As we know, these passages all tie together by common words and patterns: a wheel (galgal) sent (understanding below the surface of the written word, within a wheel), which are the ancient things, giving understanding to those who receive (believe, hear, and obey) it as the LORD speaking and working.

As we also know, this latter point is what Isaiah speaks of in 53:1, referring to the previous chapter’s words β€œof him that brings good tidings, that publishes peace,” asking, β€œWho has believed our report [shmuw’ah]? and to whom [but those who hear it as the voice of the LORD, and obey Him] is the arm [work, strength, and power] of the LORD revealed?”

The passage continues by telling us the LORD is speaking through one who has sprung forth β€œbefore [paniym – as the LORD’s presence manifested in the wheel within a wheel, to] him [revealed to those who receive His word as His and Him] as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground [β€˜erets – the earth that has been without the true word of God].”

Before looking at the many other related passages, read the following and understand that it is the LORD showing us what we are seeing, and telling us that this is the time of His revelation.

Matthew 24
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not [because He is found in His word sent upon all, speaking and working as only He alone can or does].
24 For there shall arise false Christs [claiming they know the way, and that you should be listening to them, because they {all the talking heads} know all, and tell you they do every day], and false prophets, and shall show great [lying] signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect [remnant, who are here alone enlightened, which is the LORD’s necessary delineation, one voice].
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning [astrape – shining; from the word aster: our star, the sun] comes [as the sun rising] out of the east, and shineth [phaino – made apparent] even unto the west [upon all, and there is no need to go anywhere to find Him, because He comes to you]; so shall also the coming of the Son of man [in our flesh body] be. [John 14:20 At that day you shall know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.]
28 For wheresoever the carcass [of the dead body of Christ] is, there will [the elect remnant who have received Him and His full, completed, understanding] the eagles [the fourth and final face of the unfolding presence of God, seen by Ezekiel in the wheel within a wheel] be gathered together [bringing this good tidings, and publishing peace].
29 Immediately after the tribulation [cause by the abominations men created, put in the LORD’s place, and call by His name] of those days shall the sun be darkened [the church realized to be without this understanding], and the moon [civil governments, also ignorant of these things] shall not give her light, and the stars shall [as did Satan] fall from heaven [leaving their first estate, no longer speaking this word as given by the LORD, but spewing their own ignorant opinions they call truth], and the powers of the heavens [the places where understanding should be found and isn’t] shall be shaken [by this voice, seen as lightning and heard as thunder, to shake the wicked from them]:
30 And then shall appear [phaino – become apparent] the sign [of Jonah, vomited from the belly of hell onto β€œdry ground,” calling all to repentance and the LORD’s mercy found here at His mercy seat where He is manifested in the conversation] of the Son of man [in the flesh] in heaven [as the bow, the firmament, the dividing of the light into many colors, in the cloud where understanding was held, reserved, when it left the earth in its separated elements {stoicheion}]: and then shall all the tribes of the earth [as the realization of their fallen state] mourn, and they shall see [hopou- when their eye have been wide opened] the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power [in His word that effectually works to change the minds of those who receive it as His and Him] and great glory.
31 And he shall send his angels [those with this same message] with a great sound [voice] of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect [those chosen for this salvation] from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other [away from the corrupted understanding into the authentic]. [See Isaiah 8:19 below]
32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender [like springing from a root left in a dry ground], and put forth leaves [which are for the healing of those who haven’t known the LORD and have been without Him – see Revelation 22:2], you know that summer is nigh:
33 So likewise you, when you shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Truly I say unto you, This generation [genea] shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

Matthew 7
22 Many will say to me in that day [of His coming: erchomai, with these necessary utterances, giving understand to the ancient things], LORD, LORD, have we not prophesied [our own word we have told people are the necessary things] in Your name? and in Your name have cast out devils [Satan against Satan, misleaders teaching a different misleading than they have]? and in Your name done many wonderful works [of our own determination and definition]?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.
24 Therefore whosoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock [from whom this word flows]:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded [rightly ordered] upon a rock [Christ, the LORD alive in our flesh].

Isaiah 8
7 Now, therefore, behold, the LORD brings [brought] up upon them the waters of the river, strong and many, even the king of Assyria [the communist attack against church and state, with word of death, leading our nation and people into self-destruction], and all his glory: and he shall come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks:
8 And he shall pass through Judah [against the leaders of God’s people]; he shall overflow and go over, he shall reach even to the neck [they with their words prevailed and stopped the word of God from ever reaching the mouth of any]; and the stretching out of his wings [their voice exalted above all voices] shall fill the breadth of your land, [against whom the LORD comes, manifesting His presence with us] O Immanuel [‘Immanuw ‘el].
9 Associate [corrupt] yourselves, O you people, and you shall be broken in pieces [as in the word prac below]; and give ear, all you of far countries [merchaq ‘erets – the earth in this time appointed and decreed by the LORD]: gird yourselves, and you shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves [with a worldly preparation], and you shall be broken in pieces.
10 Take counsel together [speaking worthless ignorance against the present LORD], and it shall come to naught; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God [‘el] is with us [‘immanuw].
11 For the LORD spoke thus to me [I Am, His man of war] with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, [He] saying [to me],
12 “Say you not, ‘A confederacy [joined with the ignorant and corrupt],’ to all them to whom this people shall say, ‘A confederacy [of the corrupt];’ neither fear you their fear, nor be afraid.
13 Sanctify the LORD [declare the present LORD Holy, exalt His one voice from His holy one] of hosts [a man of war] himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
14 And he [in His presence] shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the houses of Israel [his people who reject Him], for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem [who refuse to receive the peace that flows from His chosen one].
15 And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken [lakad], and be snared, and be taken.
16 Bind up the testimony [this word of Shiloh, of peace flowing from the LORD’s chosen flesh], seal the law among my disciples [My students, who see as I see].”
17 And I will wait upon the LORD, that hides [cathar – hides in men’s chosen ignorance] his face [paniym – His presence] from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him [qavah – expect to see Him by His understanding learned].
18 Behold, I [the son of David, the son of Joseph] and the children [upon whom these sure mercies of David have come] whom the LORD has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwells in mount Zion [His throne here on the earth].
19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits [the known dead, the misleading words of the communists that are known to be the death of men and nations], and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? [Why are they still looking] for the living to the dead?
20 [When they should be looking] To the law and to the testimony [this word of Shiloh, peace that flows from the LORD’s teaching]: if they speak not according to this word [exalting His voice above all other voices], it is because there is no light [understanding] in them.
21 And they shall pass through it, hardly bestead and hungry [refusing the word of God]: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry [without this word of God], they shall fret themselves, and curse their king [the promised son of David, the son of Joseph] and their God, and [ignorantly] look [panah – turn their heads] upward [not believing He is manifesting His presence in His word spoken through His chosen].
22 And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble [tsarah – tribulation] and darkness [ignorance], dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness [into the now obvious insanity].

The word rendered β€œpass away,” above in Matthew 24:34 & 35, is parerchomai, which is intentionally the counter of the word erchomai, rendered β€œcoming” in verse 30, speaking of the LORD from the cloud with power and glory.

As we have seen, erchomai has an intended affinity to the Greek words ereo (β€œto utter, i.e. speak or say”) and chraomai (in the sense of something grasped, taken hold of; β€œto furnish what is needed; (give an oracle, “graze” (touch slightly), light upon, etc.), i.e. (by implication) to employ or (by extension) to act towards one in a given manner.”)

The word (erchomai) speaks of the LORD made apparent through the necessary things He, by an oracle, utters, and counter-wise, the other word (parerchomai) refers to the replacement of the erchomai. Chraomai is always used of something spoken (used) in a necessary way or counter to it.

1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Savior, and LORD Jesus Christ, which is our hope;
2 Unto [the word β€œunto” isn’t in the original text] Timothy, my own [gnesios – the same as genesis, from genea, as in Matthew 24:34 above, meaning β€œa generation {that shall not pass away}; by implication, an age (the period or the persons)”] son in the faith: [the first begotten into this generation of] Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our LORD.
3 As I besought you to abide still at Ephesus [ea phos – alone in the light], when I went into Macedonia [among the dead flesh, in the dead body of Christ], that you might charge some that they teach no other doctrine [than that delivered from the LORD’s mouth],
4 Neither give heed to fables [the doctrines and stories with which they replaced the truth] and endless genealogies [trying to trace my lineage to determine if truly I Am of the seed of David], which minister questions, rather than godly edifying [build up the body by sound doctrine] which is in faith: so do.
5 Now the end [telos – the goal, the point aimed at] of the commandment is charity [agape – giving this word as received] out of a pure heart [a mind able to see as the LORD sees], and of a good conscience [suneidesis – a co-perspective with Him], and of faith unfeigned [without deception, not speaking of believing in Him while not actually believing He is with us, in us]:
6 From which some having swerved [astocheo – without reaching the thing, pure conversation, aimed at] have turned aside unto vain jangling [mataiologia – worthless word];
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
8 But we know that the law [this written word prepared and delivered] is good, if a man use [chraomai] it lawfully [without corrupting the Spirit and Truth held therein];
9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man [who, out of a pure mind, a co-perspective with the LORD, choosing good and refusing evil, governs himself], but for the [separation from and correction of 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 [good tidings, the published peace] of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust [to protect and defend it against corruption].

The word astocheo, meaning β€œfrom a compound of 1 (as a negative particle) and stoichos (an aim [to reach the truth]); to miss the mark, i.e. (figuratively) deviate from truth,” appears two other times: in 1 Timothy 6:21 and 2 Timothy 2:18.

This word’s affinity, in a more comprehensive sense, is to the words stoicheo, meaning β€œfrom a derivative of steicho (to range in regular line); to march in (military) rank (keep step), i.e. (figuratively) to conform to virtue and piety:β€”walk (orderly),” and stoicheion, meaning β€œneuter of a presumed derivative of the base of 4748; something orderly in arrangement, i.e. (by implication) a serial (basal, fundamental, initial) constituent (literally), proposition (figuratively):β€”element, principle, rudiment.”

In the context of these other words, we understand (see) astocheo as speaking of lacking truth, orderly arrangement, and subordination to them.

As we have often discussed here in detail, the word stoicheion is that rendered β€œelements” in 2 Peter 3:10 and 12, speaking of the corrupt foundational understanding of the wicked institutional powers melting away, with their works, and the old heaven (understanding) and earth.

2 Peter 3
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that you look [wait] for such things, be diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot [aspilos], and blameless.
15 And account that the longsuffering of our LORD [while unknown] is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom [in God’s grace] given unto him has written unto you;
16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things [the end of corruption and its resulting ignorance]; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned [without this teaching] and unstable [as is Reuben, in the pattern of the son of perdition, in Genesis 49:4, which also says the reason is that he put himself in his father’s place] wrestle [strebloo – meaning β€œto wrench, i.e. (specially), to torture (by the rack), but only figuratively, to pervert”], as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction [apoleia – perdition].
17 You therefore, beloved, seeing you know these things before, beware lest you also, being led away with the error of the wicked [following and teaching perversions of the truth and reality], fall from your own steadfastness [following the LORD alone].
18 But grow in grace [this gift given to us from Him], and in the knowledge of our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory [declaring this enlightenment is from Him alone] both now and forever. Amen.

It (stoicheion) is also used in Hebrews 5:12, speaking to these worldly powers, saying that now, when they ought to be teachers, they are in need of being taught again β€œthe first [arche – foundational] principles [stoicheion] of the oracles of God.” The passage continues: β€œβ€¦and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. 13 For every one that useth milk [is not weaned from it, as written in Isaiah 28:9] is unskilful in the word of righteousness [this strength, deep understanding]: for he is a babe. 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age [teleios – completed, weaned, and now drawing from the ancient things], even those who by reason of use [hexis – practice, experience] have their senses exercised [working out corruption] to discern both good and evil [who choose good and refuse evil].”

The word stoicheion also appears in Galatians 4:3 and 9, speaking of the beggarly β€œelements” of the world, which are, lacking this depth, the perversions of the written word; and in Colossians 2:8 and 20, speaking of the β€œrudiments” of the world, to which we were in bondage until we, when Christ was formed in us, died to them.

Galatians 3
23 But before faith [that the LORD is with us, in us] came, we were kept under the law [milk without meat], shut up unto the faith [that this is Him and His word heard] which should afterwards be revealed [apokalupto – at this apocalypse].
24 Wherefore the law [milk without meat] was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ [by practice, experiencing, understanding received from Him alone], that we might be justified by faith [that it is Him, with us, in us, making us His children produced in His likeness].
25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster [through whom came the written word, without this deep understanding that comes from the LORD alone].
26 For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one [BODY] in Christ Jesus [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in our flesh, through one mind and one voice].
29 And if you be Christ’s, then are you Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Galatians 4
1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child [remaining with childish things, milk without meat], differs nothing from a servant, though he be [unknowingly] LORD of all;
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed [this moment] of the father.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements [stoicheion – the corrupt ways and ideas of men, their leaven by which they corrupt sound doctrine] of the world:
4 But when the fullness of the time was [here and now] come, God sent forth his Son [in whom He manifests His presence, to bring many children to glory], made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law [the milk, the superficial in which the meat is concealed by perversion of it], that we might receive [by His correction] the adoption of sons.
6 And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts [removing corruption from our minds], crying, Abba, Father.
7 Wherefore you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then a heir of God through Christ [alive in you].
8 Howbeit then, when you knew not God, you did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
9 But now, after that you have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn you again to the weak and beggarly elements [stoicheion – the corrupt ways and ideas of men, their leaven], whereunto you desire again to be in bondage?
10 You observe [paratereo – watch insidiously for] days, and months, and times, and years [to come, and miss the moment, step, we are in].
11 I am afraid of you [I fear for you, that you may miss the mark aimed at], lest I have bestowed upon you labor [not working for my own salvation but yours] in vain [not having the effect that you hear and see the LORD with us, in us today].
12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am [free by His presence here and now with US, in me]; for I Am as you are: you have not injured me at all.
13 You know how through infirmity [weakness: without strength] of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
14 And my temptation which was in my flesh you despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God [carrying His message to give it as received], even as Christ Jesus [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in my flesh, in the message].
15 Where is then the blessedness [makarismos – of those the LORD imputes righteousness without works] you spoke of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me [wanting me to see with the same corrupt understanding they have, not seeing our works are Him working through us].
16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth [because it opposes the corruption men have falsely claimed are the necessary utterances]?
17 They zealously affect you [with their corruption, trying to prove they are right and the LORD is wrong], but not well; yea, they would [because you know the truth] exclude you, that [the LORD in] you might affect them.
18 But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
20 I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you [do you believe Christ is alive in the flesh, mine and yours, or are you waiting for the untrue things to come].
21 Tell me, you that desire to be under the law [the partial understanding of corrupted truth], do you not hear the law?
22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise [of this expected end now reached, in the LORD’s presence].
24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai [among thorns, those misleading His people], which genders to bondage, which is Agar [who’ve fled from the truth].
25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia [in desolation], and answers to Jerusalem [God’s people, the carcass, the dead body of Christ] which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
26 But [New Heavenly] Jerusalem which is above is [by pure truth] free, which is the mother of us all.
27 For it is written, Rejoice, you barren that bears not; break forth and cry, you that travails not: for the desolate has many more children than she which has a husband.
28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise [this end in the LORD’s presence].
29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.
30 Nevertheless what says the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.
31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

Galatians 5
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has [by the love of His truth] made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage [to the corrupt stoicheion: the corrupt elements of the world].

Colossians 2
1 For I would that you knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face [the LORD’s presence] in the flesh;
2 That their hearts [minds] might be comforted [parakaleo – led into all truth by the Paraclete, the LORD speaking and working, unknown in the flesh of His chosen], being knit together [sumbibazo – meaning β€œfrom 4862 and bibazo (to force; causative (by reduplication) of the base of 939); to drive together, i.e. unite (in association or affection), (mentally) to infer, show, teach:–compact, assuredly gather, intrust, knit together, prove”] in love [agape – by this word given as received], and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgment of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ [Jehovah alive in our flesh];
3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the [ONE] spirit [alive in all His children], joying [realizing He is in you] and beholding your order [with which comes truth], and the steadfastness of your faith [belief] in Christ [Jehovah with us, in us].
6 As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the LORD, so walk you in him:
7 Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the [corrupt] tradition of men, after the rudiments [stoicheion – the corrupt foundational idea of men, the “elements” Peter, in 2 Peter 3:10 & 12, says melt away] of the world, and not after Christ.
9 For in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
10 And you are complete [pleroo – filled to the full] in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
11 In whom also you are circumcised [removing the flesh mind] with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also you are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who has raised him [in us] from the dead.
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh [mind], has he [by His enlightening] quickened [us from death into life] together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses [into things forbidden];
14 Blotting out the [corrupt] handwriting [cheirographon – the storm, pouring rain, caused by the open mouth of the opinionated ignorant, which is the great chasma between heaven and hell, and the whale’s belly] of ordinances [dogma – the evil decrees, corrupted doctrine, of the wicked in power, in church and state] that were against us, which was contrary to us [opposing our co-perspective with the LORD], and took it out of the way [mesos – as in 2 Thessalonians 2:7, saying β€œFor the mystery of iniquity does already work: only he who now lets {katecho – those who put themselves in the Father’s place, and hold His people down in death and hell} will let {hold them down}, until he be taken out of the way {mesos – out of our midst], nailing it to his cross;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers [institution where these men sit], he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat [the understanding of their flesh minds], or in drink [the word of God, the milk, they speak in ignorance], or in respect of a holyday [their feasts, when every place and table is covered in vomit and filthiness], or of the new moon [changing personnel in these institution, while they remain with the same corrupt dogma], or of the Sabbath days [their calls to gather to them to hear their way, which are lies they tell in the LORD’s name]:
17 Which are a shadow [the darkening] of things to come [with the LORD’s enlightening appearance]; but the [ONE risen] body is of Christ [who is the ONE and Only head].
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels [messengers who’ve left their first estate, which was speaking the LORD’s message as delivered, who now speak their own words and ways while taking His name in vain], intruding [trespassing] into those things which he has not seen, vainly [worthlessly] puffed up [with pride in the thing they think they know] by his fleshly mind,
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together [sumbibazo – united by His teaching alone], increases with the increase of God.
20 Wherefore if you be dead with Christ from the rudiments [stoicheion – from the corrupted words and way of men without God] of the world, why, as though living [by their rules, commandments] in the world, are you subject to ordinances [dogmatizo – the evil decrees of the wicked in power, with which they replaced sound doctrine],

John 4
19 The woman says unto him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and you say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus says unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when you shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 You worship you know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews [this word through Judah, Judas, not Iscariot, not the betrayers, but the new crop of righteous leaders, the elect remnant].
23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship [emulate] the Father in Spirit and in Truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in Spirit and in Truth.
25 The woman says unto him, I know that Messiah comes, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus says unto her, I that speak unto you Am he.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seek you? or, Why talk you with her?
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and says to the men,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things [many men the church joined with, who are not their head] that ever I did: is not this the Christ [the true head]?

The word rendered β€œworship” above is proskuneo, meaning β€œfrom 4314 [pros] and a probable derivative of 2965 ([kuon] meaning to kiss, like a dog licking his master’s hand); to fawn or crouch to, i.e. (literally or figuratively) prostrate oneself in homage (do reverence to, adore):β€”worship.”

Its greater affinity is to the words pro (front) and skene (β€œa tent or cloth hut (literally or figuratively)”), words that say worship (emulation) is our flesh bodies as the temporary dwelling place of the Spirit and Truth of the LORD, in which He is thereby manifested.

John 14
15 If you love [agapao] me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter [Parakletos – Paraclete], that he may abide with you forever [alive with us, in us];
17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because [of corrupted dogma] it sees him not, neither knows him: but you know him; for he dwells with you, and shall be [the Spirit and Truth] in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless [orphanos – father-less, only appearing elsewhere in James 1:27, saying, “Pure religion and undefiled {without corruption} before {para – that comes beside, manifesting the presence of} God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless {orphanos} and widows {those without a man, head of the household, to protect them, keep them, from corruption} in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted {aspilos} from the world.”]: I will come [erchomai – with these necessary utterances, revealing ancient things] to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world sees me no more; but you see me: because I live, you shall live also.
20 At that day you shall know that I Am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
21 He that has my commandments, and keeps them, he it is that loves me: and he that loves me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
22 Judas [Judah – the elect remnant] says unto him, not Iscariot [not the corrupt leaders who’ve betrayed Him, not keeping His word or His commandment, which brought blindness and death upon His body: the church], LORD, how is it that you will manifest yourself unto us, and not unto the world?
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love [agapao] me, he will keep [tereo] my words: and my Father will love [agapao – giving His word to] him, and we [Father and son] will come unto him, and make our abode with him. [2 Corinthians 6, speaking of the abode, says, “for you are the temple of the living God; as God has said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people {referring to Leviticus 26:10 – 12}. 17 Wherefore come out from among them {the corrupt}, and be you separate, says the LORD, and touch not the unclean {corrupt} thing; and I will receive you {quoted from Isaiah 52:11}, 18 And will be a Father unto you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the LORD Almighty {referring to 2 Samuel 7:14 which speaks of the sure mercies of David: the LORD’s promise to correct and not leave us Fatherless}.”] [2 Corinthians 6:22 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored {rescued} you: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)]
24 He that loves [agapao] me not keep [tereo] not my sayings: and the word which you hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.
25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present [dwelling in your minds, and seen] with you.
26 But the Comforter [parakletos], which is the Holy Ghost [My presence speaking and working while unknown], whom the Father will send in my name [identity], he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 15
21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.
22 If I had not come [erchomai] and spoken unto them [these truly necessary things], they had not had sin [hamartia – shown to have missed the point aimed at, wandered away from the LORD’s truth]: but now they have no cloak for their sin.
23 He that hates [refuses to give this word as received] me hates my Father also.
24 If I had not done among them the works [of the LORD, here alone] which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen [their own errors] and [refusing to give this truth free course to His people] hated both me and my Father.
25 But this comes to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. [Psalms 69: 4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: they that would destroy me, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.]
26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceeds from the Father, he shall testify of me:
27 And you also shall bear witness, because you have been with me from the beginning [arche].

John 1
1 In the beginning [arche] was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning [arche] 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 shineth in darkness; and the darkness [the ignorant] comprehended it not.

The word hamartia, rendered β€œsin,” is said to be from β€œa” (a negative, usually reversing the word to which it is prefixed) and maraino, meaning β€œof uncertain affinity; to extinguish (as fire), i.e. (figuratively and passively) to pass away.” As we know, it is more correctly from martus, and more specifically, speaking of the daily sacrifice being taken away and the abominations (men’s creations) that are the cause of the desolation being put in its place, from marturia, meaning β€œfrom 3144 [martus]; evidence given (judicially or genitive case):β€”record, report, testimony, witness.” With the addition of the β€œa” prefix, we see the word meaning, without “record, report, testimony, witness.”

John 3
11 Truly, truly, I say unto you, We speak that we do know, and testify [martureo] that we have seen; and you receive not our witness [marturia].
12 If I have told you earthly things, and you believe not, how shall you believe, if I tell you of heavenly [ancient] things?

John 16
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away [become unseen, un-comprehended in the darkness of men’s ignorance]: for if I go not away, the Comforter [Parakletos] will not come [erchomai] unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And when he is come [erchomai], he will reprove the world of sin [hamartia – because they have taken away the daily sacrifice and replaced it with men’s abominations], and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me [that I Am the same Jesus, found in the conversation, this testimony, yesterday, today, and forever];
10 Of righteousness, because [when all this understanding has left the earth] I go to my Father [and I Am with Him alone], and you see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 I have yet many [necessary and ancient] things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now [they are the seven thunders, reserved in heaven for this moment, to be seen and heard as the bow in the cloud].
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come [erchomai], he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear [from My Father], that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come [erchomai – these necessary utterance, the meat hidden in the ancient things].
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you.
15 All things that the Father has are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you.
16 A little while, and you [when this understanding leaves the earth] shall not see me: and again, a little while, and you [when you receive Him again as the Word of God] shall see me, because I go to the Father [who is greater than all, alive in me, in all who receive Him].

The following, ending with Isaiah 28, is from the post of 19 April 2019, with today’s additions in double brackets.

[[Numbers 16]]
32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
33 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit [[sh’owl – sheol: hell]], and the earth [[β€˜erets]] closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.

[[Revelation 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon {men as whales and serpents, devouring with their open mouths} cast out of his mouth.]]

The name Korah means depilate, which tells of a covering worn away over time, into becoming shiny. In the context of the name appearing above, it is also connected to the words qarab, meaning to approach; and qareh, an (unfortunate) occurrence, as in an accidental (ceremonial) disqualification. It is speaking of the priesthood that has disqualified itself by what it has lost over time: all its original form, and now becoming smooth (pleasing men).

The mystery of the prophesies Paul speaks of is also spoken of in 1 Timothy 4:14, whereas in chapter 1 they are for warfare; here they are profiting that appears to all.

1 Timothy 4
13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
14 Neglect not the gift that is in you, which was given you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
15 Meditate upon these things; give yourself wholly to them; that your profiting may appear to all.
16 Take heed unto yourself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this you shall both save yourself, and them that hear you.

The “presbytery” is the three times used Greek word persbuterion, meaning an order of elders. This appears to be referring to the order of Melchisedec; more specifically an order of elders, weaned from milk and understanding the deep meanings, the meat of our faith, who attended to the work of the king.

This is ultimately referring us to the “ancient” of days spoken of by Daniel, from the three times used Chaldean word β€˜attiyq used there, and the two times used identical Hebrew word. These words are from the Hebrew word β€˜athaq, meaning to remove or grow old (as in Korah), and is specifically describing the “ancient things” transcribed: the word of God as it was received directly from Him, precept upon precept, line upon line.

Daniel 7
9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient [‘attiyq] of days 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 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 were opened. [See Revelation 7:9 thru 17]
[[11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spoke: I beheld even till the beast {Babylon} was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame {β€˜esh – the fire from the mouth of Jehovah}.]]

[[Daniel 4
34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar [β€œthe stump of the tree roots”] lifted up my eyes unto heaven, and my understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honored him that lives forever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation [dar] to generation [dar]:
35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he does according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What do you?
36 At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and brightness [understanding] returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.
37 Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.]]

[[Daniel 5
22 And you his {Nebuchadnezzar’s} son, O Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this {that came upon your father, ending His rule until he came to his right mind};
23 But have lifted up yourself {speaking} against the LORD of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before you, and you, and your lords, your wives, and your concubines, have drunk wine in them; and you have praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand your breath is, and whose are all your ways, have you not glorified:
24 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.
25 And this is the writing that was written, Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.
26 This is the interpretation of the thing: Mene; God has numbered {mna’ – set up} your kingdom, and finished {shlam – the same as shalam, meaning complete or restore} it.
27 Tekel; You {king Belshazzar – and are the tree cut down} are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting {chacciyr – only used here, from the word chacer, speaking of lacking understanding}. {Jeremiah 44:18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted {chacer} all things, and have been consumed by the sword {this word they refuse} and by the famine {without it}. Ezekiel 4:17 That they may want {chacer} bread and water, and be astonied one with another, and consume away {maqaq – as in Zechariah 14:12, speaking of their words, works, and ways that consume away while they stand on their feet} for their iniquity.
28 Peres {prac – spilt up}; Your kingdom is divided {prac – split up}, and given to the Medes {maday – the people in the middle land; as in Zechariah 14:4 & 5} and Persians {parac – purified by eagles}.]]

In 1 Chronicles 4:22 ‘attiyq (Hebrew) is used in a seemingly meaningless passage that actually describes the way the LORD protects His word, which is one of the prophetic descriptions of the coming of Timothy. The passage begins in verses 9 & 10, where we are told of Jabez, his name meaning sorrow, which we are told in verse 9.

The “sorrow” is described in the prior verses in proper names describing the family of Judah, his name, as we know, referring to the leaders of God’s people. It tells of the desolation that will come, and of when, after this generational degeneration, comes Jabez: His name both telling of the sorrow at the occurrence and of the eventual remedy in the revelation of the “ancient things.”

The name Jabez appears three times, in 1 Chronicles 4:9 & 10, and only one other time, in 1 Chronicles 2:55 where we are told it is the place the scribes (sons of Caleb – meaning dog) dwelt. “And the families of the scribes which dwelt at Jabez; the Tirathites [men at the gate], the Shimeathites [report], and Suchathites [men in the bush] These are the Kenites [{antichrists} – smiths, whose work is to form men in their fires] that came of Hemath [springs of boiling waters], the father of the house of Rechab [riders – referring us to Jeremiah 35, which tells of the Rechabites as those who act as did Korah did in {Numbers 16} refusing to come before the LORD, to hear His word and be taught by Him – also see Isaiah 28 below].”

1 Chronicles 4
9 And Jabez was more honorable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow.
10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that you would bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that your hand might be with me, and that you would keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

What follows in the chapter is another long series names and generations, ending in describing how God granted the request of Jabez, in keeping and protecting His word he scribed.

1 Chronicles 4
22 And Jokim [Jehovah will/has raised up], and the men of Chozeba [to reveal the falsehood these men have wrought], and Joash [{raising up} what he has given], and Saraph [to be burned in His all-consuming fire], who had the dominion in Moab [over the gates of hell], and Jashubilehem [by returning His bread – the words that have proceeded from His mouth, by which only does man live]. And these are ancient [β€˜attiyq] things [dabar – meaning words and matters, as in God’s plan].
23 These were the potters [formed – planned], and those that dwelt among plants and hedges [these are things planted, to be raised for this protection at his time]: there they dwelt with the king for his work.

The word above rendered hedges is gderah, a word that only appears nine other times, almost always telling of what is hidden, and revealed in the defeat of the enemies. It is telling of what these men have trusted in, the word of God they have handled deceitfully, which should have been for their benefit, the table they have set: now the snare in which they are caught.

Gderah is the word used in Psalms 89:40, where the throne of David, the rule of the LORD’s anointed, is said to have become desolate. Its desolation has come at the hand of those who’ve controlled it and did with it as they willed. It is the hedge they have broken down, which the LORD has come and raised again. These men are those who, as Korah and the Rechabites, refuse to come before the LORD and be corrected by Him, teaching His knowledge [as in Isaiah 28].

As we have seen, these men of Judah and Caleb are the leaders who have become as dogs returned to their own vomit, as Peter described them 2 Peter 2.

2 Peter 2
17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist [that rises from the earth] of darkness is reserved for ever.
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 from them who live in error.
19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions 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 delivered unto them.
22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

Friends, we are those drawn from the breast, the milk that is only a superficial understanding, that has become fully corrupted; now when every table is full of vomit and no place is clean. It is from this place we have been quickened, our thinking accelerated and elevated, away from the darkness that hides this glorious gospel from the lost who remain in ignorance. “And we know that the Son of God is come, and has given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.” 1 John 5:20

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 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, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face 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.

The one other time β€˜attiyq appears is in Isaiah 28:9, where the question is asked, “Whom shall he [The LORD] teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?” The question is quickly answered, saying, “them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn [β€˜attiyq] from the breasts.” This teaching is the sure mercy the LORD God promised David; saying He would visit His children when they stray, even raising them from the dead to his throne.

Psalms 89
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 shall his horn 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, 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 for ever, 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 for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.
37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.
38 But you have cast off and abhorred, you have been wroth with your anointed.
39 You have made void the covenant of your servant: you have profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
40 You have broken down all his hedges; you have brought his strong holds to ruin.
41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbors.
42 You have set up the right hand of his adversaries; you have made all his enemies to rejoice.
43 You have also turned the edge of his sword, and have not made him to stand in the battle.
44 You have made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
45 The days of his youth have you shortened: you have covered him with shame. Selah.
46 How long, LORD? will you hide yourself for ever? shall your wrath burn like fire?
47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore have you made all men in vain?
48 What man is he that lives, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave [sh’owl – sheol, hell]? Selah.
49 LORD, where are your former lovingkindnesses, which you swore unto David in your truth?
50 Remember, LORD, the reproach of your servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;
51 Wherewith your enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of your anointed.
52 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.

The gderah (hedge) is mentioned in Ezekiel 42:12 as the “wall toward the east.” The verse is describing the head of the way, directly before the wall, the hedge blocking the One entering. We are told, in the chapter’s last verse, it is what separates between the sanctuary and the profane place. What follows, after this assessment and separation, is the glory (presence) of the LORD God, entering the city, as a sunrise seen coming through the east gate.

Ezekiel 43
1 Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east:
2 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east [[as a sunrising]]: and his voice [[qowl]] was like a noise [[qowl – the voice]] of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory.
3 And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar [where the wheel within the wheel was seen – the pattern of events seen, understood, and recorded, to be carried forward, to give understanding when the pattern is seen in the future]; and I fell upon my face [[paniym – in His presence]].
4 And the glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east [as the sun rising, giving light, understanding, that brings the new day].
5 So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house [his family].
6 And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me.
7 And he said unto me, Son of man [I Am], the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcasses [[the animated dead flesh]] of their kings in their high places.
8 In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds, and their post by my posts [[saying theirs is the way]], and the wall between me and them, they have even defiled my holy name [[identity]] by their abominations that they have committed: wherefore I have consumed them in my anger.
9 Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcasses of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.
10 You son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities [[abominations]]: and let them measure the pattern.

Isaiah 28
16 Therefore thus says the LORD God, 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 [shall not be disappointed and ashamed].
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet [to measure, evaluate, as in Ezekiel 42, spoken of above]: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters [this word] shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell 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]].

Psalms 8
1 O LORD [Jehovah], our LORD [β€˜adown – our king], how excellent is your name [identity] in all the earth! who have set [nathan – given] your glory [presence] above the heavens [the places where understanding should be found].
2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings [declaring Your word as You commanded, saying β€œHosanna {save now}, Blessed is he who comes in the name {identity} of the LORD] have you ordained strength because of your enemies, that you might still [shabath – sabbath: interrupting their work, putting them to silence so Your correction is heard above all other voices of] the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens [this understanding You’ve given to us], the work of your fingers, the moon [just civil government; ruling as You rule, with truth and equal justice] and the stars [Your people in this new heaven, filled with Your light here on earth, wherein dwells righteousness], which you have ordained [kuwn – prepared, raised, and established];
4 What is man, that you are mindful of him? and the son of man, that you visit [paqad] him?
5 For you have made him a little lower than [chacer – lacking this understanding] the angels [β€˜elohiym – of God], and have crowned him with [Your] glory and [Your] honor [His understanding given to and through me].
6 You made him to have dominion [mashal – rule] over the works of your hands [referring to this light given from there]; you have put all things under his feet:
7 All sheep and oxen [Your flock], yea, and the beasts of the field [the dead in the earth, those without Your Spirit];
8 The fowl of the air [those who, by Your strength, rise into the place where understanding should be found], and the fish of the sea [the life unseen and found below the surface of the waters of the earth], and whatsoever passes through the paths of the seas [man on his unknowing journey through generations].
9 O LORD our LORD, how excellent is your name [identity] in all the earth!

Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.

19 July – 1 August 2026

Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.

As we know, the name Assyrians (the pattern of the modern communists), in the Strong’s Hebrew Dictionary, is said to be β€œapparently” from the word ’ashur (#833), and, in the Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew Lexicon, it is said to mean β€œa step.”

The idea of a step, a degree, is that each is a moment in a progressive movement, which (in this understanding) uncovers the reason the communists here in the US, long ago, when communism elsewhere proved itself to be barbaric and inhumane (abolishing God-given individual rights), lost favor; they (deceptively) rebranded themselves as β€œProgressives.”

The centralized banking system, with its usurped regulatory power, affords plausible deniability to modern communism, saying things aren’t owned by the government, and therefore the system isn’t communist. They, the modern communists, understand the reality that state CONTROL through extreme taxation and excessive regulation is much better than ownership. This is true because it has a twofold advantage to the communists: first, it lays the blame for adverse effects (the monetary burden) at the feet of the β€œowners,” also allowing them to demonize the β€œcapitalist” system they’ve perverted and control.

The following is a question I asked Grok to research, and its answer, ending with the name Das Kapital: Where in Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto does he speak about a central bank and seizing control of the money supply?

In Chapter II: β€œProletarians and Communists” (also called β€œProletariat and Bourgeoisie” in some editions), in the section outlining transitional measures.

This is near the end of the chapter, where Marx and Engels describe what the proletariat will do after gaining political supremacy: β€œwrest, by degrees [steps], all capital from the bourgeoisie [the middle class], to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the State…”

The specific reference is measure/plank #5:
Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.

This directly addresses state control over credit and banking (a national bank with monopoly power), which relates to seizing control of the money supply and financial system as part of broader centralization of production and instruments of production.

Full context of the list (for reference): The ten measures appear in sequence (standard translation):

1. Abolition of property in land…
2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.
4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.
6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport…
7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State… (and so on for 8–10).

You can read the full text on sites like marxists.org (Chapter 2). This section is famous and often cited in discussions of Marxist economic policy. Note that the Communist Manifesto (1848) is a short political pamphlet, not a detailed economic treatise like Das Kapital.

The idea of the Hebrew word ’ashur (833) meaning β€œa step” comes from an almost identical word (838) derived from it, meaning β€œfrom 833 [Strong’s Dictionary meaning β€œto be straight (used in the widest sense, especially to be level, right, happy); figuratively, to go forward, be honest, proper”] meaning in the sense of going; a step:β€”going, step.” The latter word speaks of the LORD’s unknown presence revealing the way (hearing His voice) into seeing Him, which is the victory over death and hell.

It (’ashur 838, used nine times) first appears in Job 23:11, where Job (representing God’s hated people, the faithful searching for meaning in their suffering at the hand of those through whom Satan is working) is speaking of his keeping (shamar – protecting and defending from corruption) the β€œsteps” (the process) through which (yet unknown to him) the LORD is drawing the enemies (his three friends, the leviathan, the corrupt priesthood, raising up, through whom Satan is speaking and working) in His way (’achaz – seizing them, as in harpazo, β€œcaught up” from the fires of hell) into the light.

Job 3:8
7 Lo, let that night [time of ignorance of the LORD] be solitary [galmuwd – a four times used word referring us to its use in Job 15:34 For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate {galmuwd}, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery. 35 They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity {worthlessness}, and their belly {beten – which is the hell into which they consume those who follow their misleading} prepares deceit.], let no joyful voice [the realization of His presence] come therein [among the hypocrites].
8 Let them curse it that curse the day [this understanding], who [Satan through Job’s three so-called friends] are ready to raise up [β€˜uwr – to awaken] their mourning [leviathan – the corrupt priesthood, which the LORD is drawing into his light].
9 Let the stars the twilight thereof be dark [all God’s people now in this time of mass ignorance of His presence]; let it look for light [understanding], but have none; neither let it see the dawning [aph’aph – the snare, the LORD’s eye here opened] of the day [the light rising here alone, which is seen by none of those whose mouth remain open speaking their own ways and telling all it is the way]:

Job 23
1 Then Job answered and said,
2 Even today is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.
3 Oh that I knew where I might find him [that it is in His word]! that I might come even to his [mercy] seat!
4 I would [in a conversation with Him] order [β€˜arak – rightly order] my cause [mishpat – judgment] before him [paniym – in His presence], and fill my mouth with [His] arguments.
5 I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.
6 Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength [understanding this deep] in me.
7 There the [self] righteous might dispute with him; so [by speaking His word as received, confessing it is Him present] should I be delivered forever from my judge [the self-righteous, still going about trying to prove they are right and the LORD is wrong].
8 Behold, I go forward [into this time of darkness], but he is not there; and backward [the ignorance of past generations], but I cannot perceive him:
9 On the left hand, [against the wicked] where he does work, but I cannot behold [see] him: he hides himself on the right hand [where He works unknown, in this written word], that I cannot see him:
10 But he knows the way that I take [that it has blinded all]: when he has tried me [removing the blinding corruption], I shall come forth as gold.
11 My foot has held [β€˜achaz – seized us in] his steps [β€˜ashur – the process, His manner], his way [derek – the manner of the tree of life – see Genesis 3:24] have I kept [shamar – protected and defended it from corruption], and not declined.
12 Neither have I gone back [muwsh – departed] from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed [above all other voices] the words of his mouth [by which man lives] more than my necessary food.
13 But he is in one mind [alone having the way of salvation], and who can turn him [away from His mission]? and what his soul desires [which is the knowledge of God], even that he does.
14 For he performs [shalam – completes His peace in us, by this teaching that flows from His Rock] the thing that is appointed [choq – in this time He has decreed] for me: and many such things [understanding that come from Him alone] are with him.
15 Therefore am I troubled [bahal – I am amazed and wondering] at his presence [paniym]: when I consider [biyn – receive understanding from Him, revealing Himself], I am afraid [pachad – stand in awe] of him.
16 For God makes my heart soft [rakak – showing the weakness therein the minds of men without the LORD], and the Almighty troubles me [bahal – make me wonder in amazement at the things He tells me]:
17 Because I was not cut off before [paniym – from His presence here in] the darkness [while we were ignorant], neither has he covered [kacah – concealed] the darkness [our ignorance] from my face [paniym – from His presence, even when He was to us unknown].

Job 41
1 Can you draw out leviathan [the corrupt priesthood] with a hook? or his tongue with a cord which you let down?
2 Can you put a hook into his nose [so he will perceive that the deep things he believes are corrupted]? or bore his jaw through with a thorn [showing his words to be misleading]?
3 Will he make many supplications [pray for forgiveness] unto you? will he speak soft [rak – admit the weakness in his] words unto you?
4 Will he make [karath – destroy] a covenant [with death] with you? will you [when he repents] take him for a servant forever?
5 Will you play with him as with a bird [raise him up into heaven]? or will you bind him for your maidens [God’s people at large]?

Friends, the repentance of the priesthood doesn’t necessarily happen to those who now call themselves priests. Most of those will be condemned by their unchanged words: their pride in who they think they are and what they think they know. They lack one thing, which is subordination to God’s will understood by hearing His voice.

Isaiah 61
1 The Spirit of the LORD [β€˜Adonay – David’s King of kings] God [Jehovih – and LORD of lords] is upon me; because the LORD [Jehovah] has anointed [mashach – made me Christ, the flesh in whom He has chosen to manifest His presence with us, in] me to preach good tidings unto the meek [who shall inherit the earth]; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted [those whose minds are broken away from corruption and are now without pride], to proclaim liberty to the captives [possessed by devils, misleader], and the opening of the prison [pqach-qowach – only used here; speaking of opening the spiritual eyes of the possessed, which frees them from hell] to them that are bound [by the words of men, ignorant opinions they claim are truth];
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD [His presence realized], and the day of vengeance [against the enemies] of our God; to comfort [nacham – leading into all truth] all that mourn [humbly admitting the fallen condition of God’s people under misleaders];
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty [mitsnepheth – a miter, the headwear of the cleansed priest] for ashes [of the earth’s ruin], the oil of joy [the realization of the LORD’s presence] for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness [the burdens of their misleaders]; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting [in the new earth] of the LORD, that he might 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.

The word mitsnepheth is said to be from the three times used word tsanaph, twice used in Isaiah 22:18, where they are together rendered β€œHe will surely violently turn.” The verse continues, using the word tsenephah, rendered β€œtoss;” saying, He: the LORD will β€œtoss you like a ball into a large country.”

Isaiah 22
14 And it was revealed in my ears by the LORD of hosts [a man of war], Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till you die [to your old and corrupted ways], says the LORD God of hosts [a man of war].
15 Thus says the LORD God of hosts, Go, get you unto this treasurer [where the treasure is held, from where understanding should be given], even unto Shebna [growth – the key holder, those who have over grown the garden, as thorns and briers who hold captive the key to life], which is over the house, and say,
16 What have you here? and whom have you here, that you have hewed you out a sepulcher here [have instead become places where the dead are housed], as he that hews him out a sepulcher on high, and that graves a habitation for himself in a rock [in which people put their trust, yet without light]?
17 Behold, the LORD will carry you away [tuwl] with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover you [covering all understanding of the word of God].
18 He will surely violently turn [tsanaph tsanaph] and toss [tsenephah] you like a ball [duwr – only used elsewhere in Isaiah 29:3, there speaking of the LORD β€œround about” laying siege to free His captive people, who the chapter tells us are in a state of deep sleep, ignorant of Him and His word] into a large [rachab – a broad way that leads to destruction] country [β€˜erets – the earth become without form and void]: there shall you die [to your old, corrupt, and ignorant minds], and there the chariots of your glory [the understanding upon which you ride into battle] shall be the shame [disappointment] of your LORD’s house [the churches where they’ve put their created abominations in the LORD’s place, and called them by His name].
19 And I will drive you from your station, and from your state shall he pull you down [from your seats of power].
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant [who I possess] Eliakim [who God has raised] the son of Hilkiah [whose inheritance is Jehovah; with me, in me]:
21 And I will clothe him [the new growth, the tree of life] with your robe, and strengthen him with your girdle [the preparation that was prepared], and I will commit your government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem [all God people at large, into whom the LORD, through His branches, has flow His peace], and to the house of Judah [the elect remnant, the branches into and through who this life flows].
22 And the key [of life] of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
23 And I will fasten him as a nail [yathed – with affinity to the words yath, or β€˜ath, and β€˜ed, words meaning sign and witness, alluding to the sign of the dove, Jonah, the end reached] in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house.
24 And they shall hang upon [talah – suspend, as in stopping their false teaching and preaching] him [His witness of the LORD’s presence, which is the sign of the end reached, calling all to repentance and renewal] all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons.
25 In that day [time of light], says the LORD of hosts [a man of war], shall the nail [the false signs and wonders, the false witness of the many false prophets mixed among us] that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden [men’s opinions they claim are truth] that was upon it shall be cut off [karath]: for the LORD has spoken it.

The word rendered β€œsiege” in Isaiah 29:3 is tsuwr, identical to the word tsuwr, the β€œRock” who is Christ, from whom flows the Father’s teaching, which is the siege. The same verse goes on to say β€œI will raise forts against you.” The word rendered β€œforts” is mtsuwrah, literally asking, what or who is (mah) the Rock and siege of (tsuwr) Jehovah (Yahh).

This latter word (mtsuwrah) refers us to its eighth and final use, in Nahum (Nacham – the Comforter) 2:1, where it is rendered β€œmunition,” speaking of the Rock and this siege by the Word of God.

Revelation 19
9 And he says unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper [this feast] of the Lamb [the necessary sacrifice of the LORD’s choosing]. And he says unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me [as I here and now say unto all], See you do it not: I am your fellow-servant, and of your brethren that have the testimony of Jesus [Jehovah’s Salvation alive in my flesh]: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy [speaking His word as received].
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he does judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name [identity, The Word of God] written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven [here with me, raised by the word of the LORD with us, in us] followed him upon white horses [the strength and purity, upon which we are raised above the crowd], clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword [which is the word of God], that with it he should smite the nations [those who by choice remain ignorant of His presence and power]: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God [of which all shall be made aware].
16 And he has on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And LORD Of Lords.
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that [by His strength] fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper [this feast prepared and sent upon all] of the great God;
18 That you may eat the flesh [the temporal existence] of kings, and the flesh [the temporal existence] of captains, and the flesh [the temporal existence] of mighty men, and the flesh [the temporal existence] of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh [the temporal existence] of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
19 And I saw the beast [men, speaking, working ignorance, confused opinions they claim are understanding, declaring the true false and the false true], and the kings [corrupt powers] of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet[s] that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark [the confusion, the reversed reality that identified them as delusional and insane] of the beast, and them that worshipped his image [the delusion their sleeping minds have created]. These both were cast alive [in the flesh] into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 And the remnant were slain with the sword [of the word of God, the reality, they refuse to receive as His and] him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls [all those who receive Him and His word, strength by which they are lifted into heaven] were filled with their flesh [His word shaking and overthrowing their flesh minds].

Nahum 2
1 He [the antichrists mixed among us destroying us] that dashes [your children] in pieces is come up before your face [opposing the LORD’s presence with us, in us, while you stand silent and still watching]: keep the munition [natsar mtsuwrah – look for the things revealing in this siege, when they come as teaching from the Rock], watch the [tsaphah – look for these things that come as the LORD’s] way, make your loins strong, fortify your power [this understanding now in you, by His word effectually working] mightily.
2 For the LORD has turned away the excellency [ga’own – the arrogancy of those who lead the remnant] of Jacob, as the excellency [ga’own – destroyed by the same arrogance, pride against the LORD] of Israel [our countrymen now allied with our enemies {their enemies, of which they are ignorant} and gathered against us inside out gates {destroying themselves with us, of which they are also ignorant}]: for the emptiers [baqaq – a nine times used word referring to its uses by Isaiah and Jeremiah foretelling its coming] have emptied [baqaq] them out, and marred their vine branches [and the strength and life that once flowed from its good foundation is decayed and become their sources of weakness and confusion].
3 The shield of his [the antichrists’] mighty men [gibbowr – as giants in the land] is made red [with the blood of those they’ve slaughtered], the valiant [chayil – the strength of the LORD returning to Levi – as in Deuteronomy 33:10 They {the children of Levi, the priests who have received this word of the LORD as His word} shall teach Jacob {all God’s people as ONE BODY} your judgments, and Israel your law: they shall put incense before you, and whole burnt sacrifice upon your altar. 11 Bless, LORD, his substance {chayil – the LORD’s strength in and through him}, and accept the work of his hands; smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them that hate him, that they rise not again.] men are in scarlet [as the LORD in him rises to the battle]: the chariots shall be with flaming torches [the word of God coming from their mouths] in the day of his preparation [kuwn – of their defense, which is spoken of in Nahum 1:15, coming from the one “bringing good tidings and publishing peace”], and the fir trees [the places of the so-called {now falsely} upright] shall be terribly shaken [and the wicked shall be shaken from them].
4 The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings [giving this understanding the LORD has given them].
5 He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make haste to the wall thereof, and the defense shall be prepared [kuwn].
6 The gates of the rivers [this word from the LORD] shall be opened, and the palace [of the wicked in power] shall be dissolved.
7 And Huzzab [natsab – the wicked stationed there] shall be led away captive [galah – shall be revealed], she shall be brought up [β€˜alah – raised out of their corruoption], and her maids [those they have led] shall lead her as with the voice of doves [speaking this word, the sign of the end reached, as the sign of Jonah {dove}, when God’s people as the men of Nineveh rise and stand in condemnation of the spiritually wicked sitting in power, and calling all to repent and receive the preparation, the good tidings and peace of the LORD at His now appearing and kingdom], tabering upon their breasts [playing the song the LORD has given them to be repeated as received].
8 But Nineveh is of old [yowm – is as the coming sunrise of the new day] like a pool of water [where this word of God is now gathered into His message, making known His plan for the salvation to those who hear and receive Him]: yet they shall flee away [nuwc – those now stationed there shall flee away as locust flee at sunrise]. Stand, stand [upon your old and corrupt positions], shall they cry; but none shall look back [panah – darkness {ignorance as policy} shall not remain when the light is covering the earth, when the preparation given by the LORD’s messengers is seen].
9 Take you the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is none end of the store and glory out of all the pleasant furniture [these things that prosper and complete those who receive them as the LORD’s].
10 She [the old earth] is empty [buwqah], and void [mbuwqah – what emptiness?], and waste [balaq – answering the question by referring us to the word’s only other use, in Isaiah 24:1 below]: and the heart melts, and the knees smite together, and much pain is in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness.
11 Where is the dwelling of the lions [the second face Ezekiel saw in the wheel within the wheel, which is the unfolding presence of the LORD in His word heard roaring], and the feeding place of the young lions [who hear and repeat this same word], where the lion, even the old lion, walked, and the lion’s whelp, and none made them afraid [was it not in My places of sanctuary]?
12 The lion [of old] did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses [their congregations], and filled his holes with prey, and his dens with ravin [the pieces stored up, and they thereupon rested and fell asleep].
13 Behold, I am against you, says the LORD of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour your young lions [who no longer hunt the prey and make my children therein safe]: and I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voice of your [fallen away] messengers shall no more be heard [but My word shall again be there heard].

Isaiah 24
1 Behold, the LORD makes the [the old and wholly corrupt] earth empty [baqaq], and makes it waste [balaq], and turns it upside down, and scatters abroad the inhabitants thereof.
2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.
3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD has spoken this word.
4 The earth [old and wholly corrupt] mourns and fades away, the world languishes and fades away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.
5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore has the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
7 [Because the warned curse has come] The new wine mourns the vine languishes, all the merry-hearted do sigh.

Isaiah 29
1 Woe to Ariel [the Lion of God – the strength {understanding} roaring from His people, here taken and controlled by the wicked], to Ariel, the city where David [the Lion of Judah, with reference to 2 Samiel 23, speaking of the second face of the unfolding presence of the LORD revealed, verse 2 & 3 saying, β€œThe Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and his word was in my tongue. 3 The God of Israel said, the Rock {tsuwr} of Israel spoke to me, He that rule over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.] dwelt! add you year to year; let them kill sacrifices [the LORD’s messengers He necessarily sends].
2 Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be unto me as Ariel [it will again be My strength].
3 And I [as a man of war] will camp against you round about, and will lay siege [tsuwr] against you with a mount, and I will raise forts [mtsuwrah – the Rock of Jehovah] against you.
4 And you shall be brought down, and shall speak out of the ground, and your speech shall be low out of the dust [as the voice of the serpent from the ruin of the earth], and your voice shall be, as of one that has a familiar spirit [of the known dead speaking words of death], out of the ground, and your speech shall whisper out of the dust.
5 Moreover the multitude of your strangers [teaching strange fire] shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passes away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly.
6 You shall be visited [paqad – as the Chief Overseer of the earth] of the LORD of hosts [tsaba’ – I Am, a man of war] with thunder [this voice, the sound of the light in the cloud], and with earthquake [shaking the wicked and their creations from their seats of power], and great noise [qowl – the LORD’s voice heard roaring], with storm [cuwphap – as in Isaiah 66, verse 15 & 16 saying β€œFor, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind {cuwphah}, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.”] and tempest [ca’ar – the whirlwind, from where Job {in Job 38:1 & 40:6} heard the voice of the LORD, by which he then saw Him], and the flame of devouring fire [all from My mouth].
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight [tsaba’] against Ariel, even all that fight [tsaba’] against her and her munition [matsowd – her munitions are the root, a foundation, of righteousness], and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision [realized to be creation of their sleeping minds].
8 It shall even be as when a hungry man dreams [chalam], and, behold, he eats; but he awakes, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreams [chalam], and, behold, he drinks; but he awakens, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul has appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be [those unknowingly warring against the LORD], that fight [tsaba’] against mount Zion [when they awaken and realize their own mind’s delusions deceived them and they have been emptied of all understanding].
9 Stay yourselves, and wonder [not knowing what you are experiencing]; cry you out, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
10 For the LORD has poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep [with no signs of life], and has closed your eyes [to seeing Him]: the prophets and your rulers, the seers [ra’ah – those who should see as the LORD sees] has he covered [kacah].
11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book [cepher – this written word of God] that is sealed [chatham], which men deliver to one that is learned [who therefore know the book is sealed], saying, Read this, I pray you: and he says, I cannot; for it is sealed [chatham]:
12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray you: and he says, I am not learned [the unlearned not knowing the book is sealed and they therefore still look to the false so-called learned who are still spewing their own opinions while saying the LORD says].
13 Wherefore the LORD said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth [taking My name in vain], and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their heart [the foundations of their mind – their stiocheion, the elements of their understanding, are corrupt and disordered] far from me [rachaq – in this time when the earth is ruled by the evil decrees of the wicked in power], and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous [eye-opening] work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder [pele’ – at which all have wondered]: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their [wicked] counsel [‘etsah] from the LORD, and their works are in the dark [their own ignorance of reality and truth they can’t understand because it is to them a foreign language], and they say, Who sees us? and who knows us?
16 Surely your turning of things upside down [the overthrow] shall be esteemed as the potter’s [yatsar] clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed [yatser] say of him that framed [yatsar] it, He had no understanding?
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon [purity seen in high places] shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest [of upright men]?
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words [this word] of the book [cepher], and the eyes of the blind shall see [again] out of obscurity [β€˜ophel – dusk, when light has left], and out of darkness [by coming out of ignorance].
19 The meek [who shall inherit the earth] also shall increase their joy in the [realization of the] LORD, and the poor [those without worldly power] among men shall rejoice in the [realization of the] Holy One of Israel [with whom the light has returned].
20 For the terrible one is brought to naught, and the scorner [luwts – those mocking His coming, because all they know is their own false interpretations] is consumed [kalah – is completely ended], and all that watch for [to protect and defend] iniquity are cut off:
21 That make a man an offender for a word [speaking truth], and lay a snare [their own ignorant opinions] for him that reproves in the gate [where these men’s mouths are holding all in death and hell], and turn aside the just for a thing of naught [their worthless opinions].
22 Therefore thus says the LORD, who redeemed [padah] Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale [but they will reach the end promised].
23 But when he sees his children [who have been born again out of death and hell], the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name [declare My identity Holy], and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured [against me] shall learn doctrine.

Job 33
1Wherefore, Job [God’s people hated in this time], I [Elihu – He is God, the LORD unknown speaking in the flesh] pray you, hear [shama’ – and obey] my speeches, and hearken [β€˜azan] to all my words.
2 Behold [see it is the LORD with me, in me], now I have opened my mouth, my tongue has spoken in my mouth.
3 My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart [mind]: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly [the LORD thereby making it plainly understood]. [Again, just as David says in 2 Samuel 23:2 The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and his word was in my tongue. 3 The God of Israel said, the Rock {tsuwr} of Israel spoke to me, He that rules over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.]
4 The spirit of God has made me, and the breath [given from the mouth] of the Almighty has given me life.
5 If you can answer [shuwb – turn to Him with] me, set your words in order before me [paniym – making plain His presence is with you also], stand up [with me, as the LORD has commanded you].
6 Behold, I am according to your wish in [peh – I am the mouth of] God’s stead: I also am formed out of the clay [the ruin of the earth].
7 Behold, my terror shall not make you afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon you.
8 Surely you have spoken in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of [you speaking] your [own] words, saying,
9 I am clean without transgression [your error is your ignorance, not seeing your corruption which the LORD in me is working and speaking to correct], [but you still say] I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me [Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel {those upon whom this light has lighted, who will rule with God on the earth} is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge {of God and His presence}. 3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness {His correct and just ways and ideas}, and going about to establish their own righteousness {to prove their own opinions and ways are right, exalting them above His}, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness {these right ways and ideas} of God. 4 For Christ is the end {the completion} of the law for righteousness to everyone that believes {He is present, working and speaking His will}].
10 Behold [the way these men see it as man see], he finds occasions against me, he counts me for his enemy,
11 He puts my feet in the stocks, he marks all my paths. [It is your own ways and ideas that have straitened {restrained His work} in you].
12 Behold, in this you are not just: I will answer you, that God [His word and way] is greater than [the corruptible and worthless words and way of] man.
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 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] with him, an interpreter [luwts], one among a thousand, to show unto man his uprightness:
24 Then he is gracious unto him, and says [to the interpreter sent as His deliverer], 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 [which is perceived and realized]: for he will render unto man his righteousness [as He does here and now].
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.
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 [understanding] of the living.

The understanding of the living, which Job lacks, is seeing as God sees, and realizing He is with us, drawing the wicked into His snare, the sunlight by which their words and works are melted away. As we know, this culminates in Job realizing the words He has heard, from Elihu, are the manifestation of the LORD’s presence, and he finally sees Him in the steps (forward and backward, away from this understanding and back to it, into and out of death and hell).

Job 17
4 For you have hid their heart [minds] from understanding: therefore shall you not exalt them [because their words and ways are in ignorance].
5 He that speaks flattery [cheleq – the things worn smooth by time, by steps, which they have inherited from those misled before them] to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail [kalah – at this full end, they will not see the LORD’s presence].
6 He has made [yatsag – set, established] me also a byword [mshoel – in this hell] of the people; and aforetime [paniym – in Your presence] I was as a tabret [tohpeth – here in the fires of hell].
7 Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow [of ignorance], and all my members are as a shadow [from whom this light is withheld].
8 [The so-called] Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent [of the transgression into ignorance] shall stir up himself against the hypocrite [the self-righteous, those trying to prove their ignorant opinions are correct].
9 The [truly] righteous also shall hold on [β€˜achaz – shall seize] his [he shall be caught up by the LORD’s] way, and he that has clean [undefiled] hands shall be [by this word the flows from the Rock] stronger and stronger [like iron sharpened by iron].
10 But as for you all [who have experienced this and haven’t yet realized it is the LORD’s presence speaking and working, with us, in us], do you return [to Him], and come now [are you caught up with Him into this third heaven]: for I cannot find one wise man among you. [And is it so? Isn’t it because none of you declare you have seen Him, after hearing Him]?
11 My days [of my own understanding] are past [β€˜abar – and I must now come from death into life], my purposes [zimmah – my opinions] are broken off [nathaq – are drawn into the light], even the [corrupt] thoughts of my heart [my mind without the LORD’s presence].
12 They [in this light] change the night [my ignorance] into day [into understanding]: the light is short because of darkness.
13 If I wait [and do not take the steps into the course the LORD has prepared for me], the grave [sh’owl – sheol, hell, the grave wherein the dead are held] is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness [in this, Abraham’s, deep sleep, as in Genesis 15:12].
14 I have said to corruption [that caused this sleep here in hell], You are my father: to the worm [the animated dead flesh, here in the fires], You are my mother, and my sister.
15 And where is now my hope [in the LORD’s presence]? as for my hope [in corrupt things], who [except those in whom the LORD interprets it] shall see it?
16 They [the corrupt things] shall go down to the bars of the pit [sh’owl – that shall hold them in hell], when our rest together [in death’s sleep] is in the dust [the ruin of the old and corrupt earth, from where the LORD raises us to life].

Psalms 17
1 Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goes not out of feigned [deceitful] lips.
2 Let my sentence [mishpat – my judgment] come forth from your presence [paniym]; let your eyes behold [chazah – let me discern by seeing with Your sight] the things that are equal.
3 You have proved my heart; you have visited me [paqad – come as the Chief Overseer of the earth] in the night [this time when ignorance covers the earth and no man knows You]; you have tried me, and shall find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of your lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.
5 Hold up my goings [β€˜ashur – steps] in your paths, that my footsteps slip not [into ignorance].
6 I have called upon you, for you will hear me, O God: incline your ear unto me, and hear my speech.
7 Show your marvelous lovingkindness [palah – distinguishing us from the dead world], O you that saves by your right hand them which put their trust in you from those that rise up against them.
8 Keep me as the apple of the eye [is your pupil your ar eteaching to see as you see], hide me under the shadow of your wings [Your voice heard from on high],
9 From [paniym – by Your presence, save us from] the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.
10 They are enclosed in their own fat [prospering in their wickedness]: with their mouths they speak proudly.
11 They have now compassed us in our steps [β€˜ashur]: they have set their eyes bowing down to [the corruption of] the earth;
12 Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
13 Arise, O LORD, disappoint [paniym – by Your presence against] him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is your sword:
14 From men which are your hand, O LORD, from men of the world, which have their portion in this life, and whose belly you fill with your hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes.
15 As for me, I will behold [chazah – perceive] your face [paniym – presence] in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake [from death], with your likeness.

The word rendered β€œlikeness” is tmuwnah, a ten times used word meaning, β€œor tmunah {tem-oo-naw’}; from 4327; something portioned (i.e. fashioned) out, as a shape, i.e. (indefinitely) phantom, or (specifically) embodiment, or (figuratively) manifestation (of favor):–image, likeness, similitude.”

It (tmuwnah) is said to be from the word miyn, meaning β€œto portion out; a sort, i.e. species:–kind.”

These words speak of seeing God, as a species, first unknown while manifesting His presence: speaking and working, and eventually revealed in His offspring, those produced into His image and likeness, after His own kind (miyn).

1 John 3
1 Behold, what manner of love [His word given by Him, to be charitably given as received] the Father has bestowed upon us, that we [who have received His word as His] should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now [by receiving His correction away from error, sin] are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear [phaneroo – not yet β€œrendered apparent”] what we shall be [awakened into His likeness]: but we know that, when he shall appear [phaneroo – is rendered apparent, when we realize He is in His word and work, with us, in us], we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3 And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself [from corruption], even as he is pure. [Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart {from whose minds corruption is removed}: for they shall see God.]
4 Whosoever committeth sin [hamartia – literally translating to – without witness, without martyrdom; this is the necessary daily sacrifice, giving His word as received, declaring it is Him manifested therein] transgresses [anomia – violates] also the law: for sin [hamartia] is the transgression [anomia] of the law.
5 And you know that he was manifested to take away our sins [hamartia – ending our silence]; and in him is no sin [hamartia – there is no lacking witness or sacrifice].
6 Whosoever abides in him sins [hamartano] not: whosoever sins [hamartano – without this witness and sacrifice] has not seen him, neither known him.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin [hamartia – is without this witness and sacrifice] is of the devil [the misleaders who sit in the place of God, showing themselves as if they are gods]; for the devil sins [hamartano] from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested [phaneroo – made apparent], that he might destroy the works of the devil [which is the snare come upon all the earth].

1 Thessalonians 2
10 You are witnesses [martus – you are now the martyrs that must carry the received word forward and give it as received, declaring it is His presence with us, in us], and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe [that this is truly the word from the LORD God]:
11 As you know how [leading you into all His truth] 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 is present with us, in us], who has [through us] called you unto 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 [it is His and Him present therein this conversation at His mercy seat].
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: [misleaders, as enemies mixed among us, not allowing this word to have free course; they are the wicked whose iniquity was already at work, spoken of in 2 Thessalonians 2, who put themselves in God’s place, who Paul says, in beginning 2 Thessalonians 3, are the wicked from whom we should pray for deliverance, that this word of God would have free course, to be delivered as received by His martus]
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 [this word] to the Gentiles [those who don’t know the LORD, who necessarily need to hear His truth] that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath [this word they refuse] is come upon them to the uttermost.
17 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart [mind], endeavored the more abundantly to see your face [the presence of the LORD revealed in you] with great desire.
18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan [working through the wicked men he possesses] hindered us.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even you [here and now, in this conversation] in the presence of our LORD Jesus Christ at his coming?
20 For you are our glory and joy [realizing it is the LORD in us speaking and working revealing Himself].

Hebrews 13
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content [arkeo – complete] 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 [this] word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation [in which the LORD is manifested present].
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 [this gift of God]; not with meats [not with the understanding that is given from dead flesh], which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.

2 Timothy 2
7 Consider what I say; and the LORD give you understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God [from the risen LORD] is not bound [cannot be restrained by Satan].
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 [as martyrs, taking up His same cross, witnessing to His presence with us, in us], we shall also reign with him: if we deny him [alive with us, in us], he also will deny us:
13 If we believe not, yet he abides [long-suffering unknown] faithful: he cannot deny himself.
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the LORD [manifesting His presence] that they strive not about [wicked men’s] 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 [by which salvation comes].
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 forbidding you from joining with the present LORD, as they hide behind false claims of friendship];
18 Who concerning the truth have erred [astoichos – a three times used word said to be β€œfrom a compound of 1 (as a negative particle) and stoichos (an aim); to miss the mark, i.e. (figuratively) deviate from truth:–err, swerve.”]; saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some. [The resurrection is an individual moment, that crescendos in the rising of the complete ONE BODY of Christ.]
19 Nevertheless the foundation 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 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 [dishonorable men], he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, 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 [a mind not corrupted by men’s errors].
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strife [their questions are meant to continue the argument – never able or willing to accept the truth, even when it is obvious].
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 [refusing this salvation, the love of the LORD’s truth come]; 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, who are taken captive by him at his will.

The word β€œsnare” is from the five times used word pagis, meaning β€œa trap (as fastened by a noose or notch); figuratively, a trick or statagem (temptation):–snare.”

Friends, the snare is the temptation to deny the LORD is present with us, in us, which is revealed in our witness and martyrdom (dead, unknown, with Him until the resurrection of the ONE BODY).

Luke 21
31 So likewise you, when you [by your uncorrupted mind] see these things come to pass, know you that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32 Truly I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
33 [The old and totally corrupted] Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my [uncorrupted] words shall not pass away.
34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts [minds] be overcharged [baruno – burdened] with surfeiting [kraipale – by the powers wresting with this word of God, into their perdition], and drunkenness [minds altered by what is consumed, into stupefaction], and cares of this life [you become apathetic], and so that day come upon you unawares [as it now has upon all the world].
35 For as a snare [pagis] shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch [remain awake] you therefore, and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand [in this resurrection] before the Son of man.

Romans 19
2 God has not cast away his people which he foreknew. Know you not what the scripture says of Elijah? how he made intercession to God against Israel saying,
3 LORD, they have killed your prophets, and digged down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4 But what says the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal [the idols men crested and put in the LORD’s place].
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace [those predestined to receiving this free gift first].
6 And if by grace [it is a gift given freely], then is it no more of [men’s] works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works [and not given by the LORD], then it is no more grace: otherwise [the LORD’s] work is no more work.
7 What then? Israel [God’s people, who because of the corrupt no longer recognize Him] has not obtained that which he seek for; but the [predestined] election has obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
8 (According as it is written [in Isaiah 29:10], God has given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day. [Verse 9 saying β€œStay yourselves {stop your drunken words and works}, and wonder {not knowing what you are experiencing}; cry you out {this word of the LORD}, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
9 And David says [in Psalms 69:22 & 23, speaking of the overseers of the earth], Let their table {their words} be made a snare {pagis}, and a trap, and a stumbling-block, and a recompence unto them: [speaking of the drunkard of Ephraim: Isaiah 28:8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.]
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see [the LORD present with us, in us], and bow down their back always.

Psalms 44
[Words of Instruction, to be Sung to the Rebels and by them upon Returning]
1 We have heard [Your voice] with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work you did in their days, in the times of old.
2 How you did drive out the heathen with your hand [Your work], and planted them; how you did afflict the people, and cast them out.
3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm [work and power] save them: but your right hand, and your arm, and the light [understanding] of your countenance [paniym – Your presence], because you had a favor unto them.
4 You are my King, O God: command deliverances [yshuw’ah – Jesus, Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh] for Jacob.
5 Through you will we push down our enemies: through your name [Your Identity revealed] will we tread them under that rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
7 But you have saved us from our enemies, and have put them to shame that hated us.
8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise your name [Your identity] forever. Selah.
9 But [in our rebellion and rejection of Your leadership] you have cast off, and put us to shame; and go not forth with our armies.
10 You make us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
11 You have given us like sheep appointed for meat; and have scattered us among the heathen.
12 You sell your people for naught, and do not increase your wealth by their price.
13 You make us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
14 You make us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face has covered me,
16 For the voice of him that reproaches and blasphemes; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
17 All this is come upon us; yet have we [in our confusion we thought we have] not forgotten you, neither have we dealt falsely in your covenant.
18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps [β€˜ashur] declined from your way;
19 Though you have sore broken us in the place of dragons [tanniyn – by men among us as serpents and whales, devoured us with their wide open mouths and swallowing us into this belly of hell], and covered us with [concealed from us] the shadow of [darkness – ignorance of our own condition, which is] death.
20 If we have forgotten the name of [the identity, His manner in which He reveals Himself as] our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god [which men created and put in His place];
21 Shall not God search [chaqar – penetrate this darkness] this out [as He has]? for he knows the secrets of the heart [mind].
22 Yea, for your sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
23 Awake, why sleep you, O LORD? Arise [in us], cast us not off forever [netsach – from Your victory and truth].
24 Wherefore hide you your face [paniym – Your presence, which is only hidden in the ignorance caused by the dragons among you], and forget our affliction and our oppression [which He hasn’t forgotten, but they, the rebels, continually turn to their oppressors thinking these destroyers will save them from themselves]?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust [the ruin of the earth led by serpents and whales]: our belly [beten – the belly of hell, of Jonah 2:2] cleaves [dabaq – meaning “to impinge, i.e. cling or adhere; figuratively, to catch by pursuit”] unto [hell on] the earth.
26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for your mercies’ sake.
