And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marveled all. And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, and praised God.

25 – 28 October 2024

And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marveled all. And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, and praised God.

The one spoken of above, whose tongue is loosed, is Zachariah; from the Hebrew word zakar (remember) and the name Jehovah (the LORD). In a pattern, it’s speaking of the leaders of God’s people whose mouths are shut until the above event: when John is born.

To understand the event, we must look back at the use of the word thaumazo, rendered “marveled” in the above passage, Luke 1:63 & 64, and earlier in verse 21.

I must once again remind all readers that all scripture is ultimately written for this specific moment when the LORD reveals Himself in this unfolding exposition, first to His elect remnant and then through us to all the world.

Luke 1
8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office [revealing the pattern he portrays] before God in the order of his course [in the service of Jehovah],
9 According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense [teach men to perceive the LORD presence always with us] when he went into the temple of the LORD.
10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the LORD standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 And when Zachariah saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him [which happens to all after the title event, in verse 65].
13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zachariah [those who recognize, remember, Jehovah’s presence in His message]: for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elisabeth [from Elisheba, Aaron’s wife, speaking of those who reach this decreed time of God’s oath, who, joined with the priesthood, liberally give this word as received] shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name John [the sign of the end reached, of Jonah, the dove sent into the world: when “I and the children God has given me” become ONE BODY].
14 And you shall have joy [realizing the LORD’s presence with us, in us] and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15 For he shall be great in the sight of the LORD, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink [our mind shall never again be changed away from the LORD’s]; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother’s womb.
16 And many of the children of Israel shall he [re]turn to the LORD their God.
17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah [God is Jehovah], to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children [quoting from the final verse of the Old Testament, Malachi 4:6], and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just [obedient]; to make ready a people prepared for the LORD [purified to see Him].
18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19 And the angel answering said unto him, I Am Gabriel [man of God], that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto you, and to show you these glad tidings [euaggelizo – to announce this good news, as in D’Annunzio: the annunciation].
20 And, behold, you shall be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because you believe not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
21 And the people waited for Zachariah [as all the world now waits to hear your voices], and marveled [thaumazo] that he tarried so long in the temple.
22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.

As we know, the phrase “man of God” appears only twice in the New Testament, each contextually related to Timothy. Both pertain to today, this moment, and are the LORD speaking to (of) me and the children He has given me.

Friends, these are hard things for me to say (offending many), but they must be said to remove the ambiguity. I know this is the LORD’s will (declaring this word is His and Him), and I know only in this recognition can the epiphany occur (knowing I Am, the LORD). In this “knowledge” is forever contained the rising of God’s people, and lacking it, their fall.

Jeremiah 9
12 Who is the wise man, that may understand this? and who is he to whom the mouth of the LORD has spoken, that he may declare it [as I have commanded], [declaring] for what the land [‘erets – the earth] perishes and is burned up like a wilderness [without this understanding], that none passes through [‘abar – from death into life]?
13 And the LORD says, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed [shama’] my voice, neither walked therein;
14 But have walked after the imagination of their own heart [minds], and after Baalim [the false gods, and their false teaching, of this world], which their fathers taught them:
15 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will feed them, even this people [with their words as poison], with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
16 I will scatter them also among the heathen [as they are scattered], whom neither they nor their fathers have known: and I will send a sword [this word they refuse] after them, till I have consumed [kalah – the decreed end, the mow’ed described in Daniel 12:7, when the scattering of God’s people leaves them with no power, and all these things are finished] them.
17 Thus says the LORD of hosts, Consider you, and [for these things] call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for cunning [wise] women [who now understand this], that they may come:
18 And let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters [giving this understanding from our minds, as in verse 1].
19 For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we spoiled! we are greatly confounded [without understanding, not knowing the LORD or His ways], because we have forsaken the land [‘erets – not been His presence to the earth], because our dwellings [in Him] have cast us out [we have cast Him aside].
20 Yet hear the word of the LORD, O you women [My ONE BODY], and let your ear receive the word of his mouth, and teach your daughters wailing, and every one her neighbor lamentation.
21 For death is come up into our windows [to those who say they see], and is entered into our palaces [the current crop of corrupt leader], to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets.
22 Speak, Thus says the LORD, Even the carcasses of men shall fall as dung upon the open field [as has come upon all humanity], and as the handful [only a few living] after the harvestman, and none [among men] shall gather them.
23 Thus says the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches:
24 But let him that glories glory in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth [‘erets], for in these things I delight, says the LORD.
25 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will punish [paqad – visit as the Chief Overseer of the earth] all them which are circumcised [who think they are spiritual] with the uncircumcised [showing them to be without My Spirit];
26 Egypt [as oppressors and tyrants], and Judah [the corrupt leaders of My people], and Edom [the enemies among My people as if their brethren, who seek their destruction], and the children of Ammon [who’ve scattered My people and removed their power], and Moab [by their mouth that are the gates holding them in hell], and all that are in the utmost corners [who’ve turned all but the very elect remnant from Me in these last days], that dwell in the wilderness [this end time desolation]: for all these nations [who haven’t known me] are uncircumcised [are without My Spirit], and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised [without My Spirit] in the heart [in their minds, even while I Am present with them].

1 Corinthians 1
18 For the preaching of the cross [paying the necessary price that comes with preaching this authentic word of God and declaring it is His presence with us, in us speaking and working] is to them that perish [rejecting the manifested presence of Jesus: Jehovah Salvation, thinking His words are] foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise [of the evil generation], and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent [of this corrupt world].
20 Where is the wise [of this evil generation]? where is the scribe [who say they know His word, who haven’t known His presence among them]? where is the disputer of this world [who with their ignorant and erroneous words war against Him]? has not God made [truly] foolish the wisdom of this [wholly corrupt] world?
21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by [its falsely so-called] wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the [falsely so-called] foolishness of preaching to save them that believe [it is His presence manifested with us, in us].
22 For the Jews [Judah – the current crop of corrupt leaders who think they know it all] require a sign [which they, being blind, not knowing His high way, fail to see manifested before the eyes of all the world], and the Greeks [those effervescing their own falsely so-called wisdom] seek after wisdom [that agrees with their falsely so-call wisdom]:
23 But we preach Christ [in us, by them] crucified [again], unto the Jews [these corrupt leaders] a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks [teachers ignorant of their own ignorance] foolishness;
24 But unto them which are called [out of darkness into His light], both Jews and Greeks, Christ [the LORD realized alive in us is] the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
26 For you see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
27 But God has chosen the foolish [I Am] things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things [I Am] of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
28 And base things [I Am] of the world, and things which are despised [I Am], has God chosen, yea, and things which are not [seen by the powerful of this world], to bring to naught things that are [by men’s eyes seen]:
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.
30 But of him [alive in me] are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
31 That, according as it is written [above in Jeremiah 9:24], He that glories, let him glory in the LORD.

Romans 10
1 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel [all God’s people whose hope is in Him] 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 Him].
3 For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness [their hope is in their own ways and ideas, trying to prove them right while they ignorantly fight against the LORD here to save us], have not submitted [hupotasso – meaning “to subordinate; reflexively, to obey”] themselves unto the righteousness of God.
4 For Christ [the LORD’s presence manifested in the flesh He chooses] is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes [it is Him present].
5 For Moses described the righteousness which is of the law [without understanding that only comes through the LORD’s manifested presence revealing it], That the man which does those things [of ignorance] shall live by them [in the consequences of his ignorance].
6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaks on this wise, Say not in your heart [ignorant mind], Who shall ascend into heaven [the place of full understanding]? (that is, to bring Christ [the LORD’s presence whereby understanding comes] down from above:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep [where understanding is held in the darkness of men’s ignorance]? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead [where He is held in the darkness by men’s ignorance].)
8 But what says it? The word [in which He is manifested] is near you, even in your mouth [to be spoken manifesting His presence, alive in you, speaking from what was before dead flesh], and in your heart [mind]: that is, the word of faith, which we preach [as He manifests Himself to those who hear His, Jehovah the Father’s, voice from us];
9 That if you shall confess with your mouth the LORD Jesus [is alive in us and in you], and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved.
10 For with the heart man believes unto [receiving the LORD’s] righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made [His testimony heard from us] unto salvation.
11 For the scripture says [in Isaiah 28:16], Whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed. [“Therefore thus says the LORD God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone {from whom flows this foundational understanding}, a tried {proven under fire} stone, a precious corner {turning our heads to the LORD} stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste {not run away, as do the enemies in Jeremiah 49:19 & 50:44, in shame when their ways and ideas are realized to be corruption}”].
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same LORD over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved. [as it is written in Joel 2:32, verse 27 saying “And you shall know that I Am in the midst of Israel, and that I Am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.”]
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed [Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.]? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? [Ecclesiastes 12: 9 And moreover, because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs. 10 The preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth.]
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent [as I Am, as you are]? as it is written [in Isaiah 52:7], How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! [Isaiah 52 continues, saying “8 Your watchmen {who see as the LORD sees} shall lift up the voice; with the voice together {with me} shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion {His rule upon the earth}. 9 Break forth into joy {realizing His presence}, sing together, you waste places of {old and corrupt} Jerusalem: for the LORD has comforted his people {leading them into all truth}, he has redeemed {New Heavenly} Jerusalem. 10 The LORD has made bare his holy arm {this work} in the eyes of all the nations {all who haven’t known Him}; and all the ends of the earth {ending of the old and beginning the new} shall see the salvation of our God. 11 Depart you {from the old and corrupt}, depart you, go you out from there, touch no unclean {corrupt} thing; go you out of the midst of her; be you clean, that bear the vessels {in whom are these treasure} of the LORD. 12 For you shall not go out {not run away} with haste, nor go by flight: for the LORD will go before you {manifesting His presence showing the way}; and the God of Israel will be your reward.]
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says [in Isaiah 53:1], LORD, who has believed our report? [Who has believed this voice heard is the voice of Jehovah? And to those that do, the arm of the LORD is revealed.]
17 So then faith comes by hearing [His voice manifesting His presence in the flesh], and hearing by the word of God [heard as Him speaking].
18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes truly, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. [As written in Psalms 19:4, the following verse saying “5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoices as a strong man to run a race. 6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. 7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony {‘eduwth} of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.]
19 But I say, Did not Israel [all God’s people] know? First Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you. [Quoted from Deuteronomy 32:21, verse 22 saying, “For a fire is kindled in my anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and {hell} shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the {corrupt} foundations of the mountains {governments of church and state}.”]
20 But Isaiah [in Isaiah 65:1 & 2] is very bold, and says, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.
21 But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people [speaking against this word of God].

The final two verses above, in Isaiah, come after Isaiah 64 ends. What follows in Isaiah 65 is the LORD describing all worship of Him as defiled and opposing Him, as His people, remaining among the dead, are telling Him to stay away from them because they are holier than He.

Isaiah 65
6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom [their own ways],
7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers [before you who went lame and strayed from truth] together, says the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains [their corrupt governments of church and state], and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
8 Thus says the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants’ sakes [giving them this new wine that changes their minds], that I may not destroy them all.
9 And I will bring forth a seed [an elect remnant that I plant in the new earth] out of Jacob, and out of Judah [these leaders] an inheritor of my mountains [My new government on the earth]: and my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there [in the new earth I create].
10 And Sharon [those who plainly see these things as I see them] shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor [the low places of the old earth, where before there was endless agitation and strife] a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
11 But you are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop [that wars against me and My people], and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.
12 Therefore will I number you to the sword [this word You refuse], and you shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not hear [shama’ – obey]; but did evil before my eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
13 Therefore thus says the LORD God, Behold, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed:
14 Behold, my servants shall sing [these words] for joy of heart [when their minds realize they are My presence manifested to those in need], but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
15 And you shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the LORD God shall slay you, and call his servants by another name:
16 That he who blessed himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles [tsarah – tribulations] are forgotten, and because they are hid from my eyes.
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

Isaiah 64
1 Oh that you would rend the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might flow down [the governments of the corrupt earth would be brought down and melt away] at your [manifested] presence [paniym],
2 As when the melting fire burns, the fire causes the waters to boil [so it was made pure and good for drinking], to make your name [identity] known to your adversaries, that the nations [who haven’t known You] may tremble [shaking the wicked from the seats of power] at your [manifested] presence [paniym]!
3 When you did terrible things which we looked not for [in ways none but You knew], you came down, the mountains flowed down [when the former governments of the earth were brought down and melted away] at your [manifested] presence [paniym].
4 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither has the eye seen, O God, beside you, what he has prepared for him that waits for him.
5 You meet him that rejoices [realizes His presence] and works righteousness, those that remember [zakar] you in your ways [derek]: behold, you are wroth; for we have sinned: in those [remembering Your ways in which Your presence is manifested, as stated in these previous verses] is continuance [‘owlam – eternity], and we shall be saved.
6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy [‘ed] rags [testifying of things that aren’t right]; and we all do fade as a leaf [as the mountains melt away]; and our iniquities, like the wind [of false doctrine], have taken us away.
7 And there is none that calleth upon your name [Your present identity], that stirs up himself [‘uwr – awakens from death’s sleep] to take hold of you: for you have hid [cathar – concealed in man’s ignorance] your face [paniym – presence] from us, and have consumed [muwg – melted] us, because of our iniquities.
8 But now, O LORD, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you our potter; and we all are the work of your hand.
9 Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity forever: behold, see, we beseech you, we are all your people.
10 Your holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised you, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
12 Will you refrain yourself for these things, O LORD? will you hold your peace, and afflict us very sore?

Isaiah 65
1 I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation [people who haven’t known me] that was not called by my name.
2 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way [derek] that was not good, after their own thoughts;
3 A people that provoke me to anger continually to my face [paniym – My presence of which they are ignorant]; that sacrifice in gardens [overgrown by thorns and biers], and burn incense upon altars of brick [creation of their own hands];
4 Which remain among the graves [among the dead in the earth], and lodge in the monuments [remembering only the creations of the dead], which eat [the words of] swine’s [unclean] flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5 Which say, “Stand by yourself, come not near to me; for I am holier than you.” These are a smoke in my nose [to be fanned away with My hand], a fire that burns [to heat up your abominable broth] all the day [in this time of light].

In the context of the word ‘edah (‘adah) used to tell of the congregations that will and will not remain, and after telling of the LORD’s testimony, as a whirlwind, opening the mouth of the earth as none other is able, receive the following as He continues to unfold His presence therein, before the eyes of all the world.

Psalms 111
1 Praise you the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation [‘edah].
2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
3 His work is honorable and glorious: and his righteousness [found in His word, His testimony from heaven] endures forever.
4 He has made his wonderful works to be remembered [zeker]: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.
5 He has given meat [this deep understanding, that is His strength] unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful [zakar] of his covenant.
6 He has shown his people the power of his works [His word that effectually works in us, to change our minds], that he may give them the heritage of the heathen [who refuse to know Him].
7 The works of his hands are verity [’emeth – stability, unchanging truth] and judgment; all his commandments are sure [‘aman – built upon a strong foundation, precept upon precept, line upon line].
8 They stand fast forever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
9 He sent redemption unto his people: he has commanded his covenant forever: holy and reverend [yare’ – to be revered by those who love Him, and feared by those who hate and reject Him] is his name [His identity, Jesus, Jehovah’s Salvation, manifested in His word from the flesh He chooses].
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endures forever.

Psalms 106
1 Praise you the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endure forever.
2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can show forth all his praise?
3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that does righteousness at all times.
4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favor that you bear unto your people: O visit me with your salvation;
5 That I may see the good of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.
6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
7 Our fathers understood not your wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of your mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.
8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.
9 He rebuked the Red sea also [the reed sea, where its shore, where the proud wave of the wicked are stopped, is designated by the reeds {the papyrus – upon which the word of God is written and sent through history} that spring from the waters], and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths [the deep understanding found therein, once the waters of the wicked abated], as through the wilderness [through this time of desolation].
10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11 And the waters covered [kacah] their enemies: there was not one of them left.
12 Then believed they [His people] his words; they sang his praise.
13 They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel:
14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted [doubted the presence of] God in the desert.
15 And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.
16 They envied Moses [who was drawn out of the corrupt waters of tyrants, who the LORD sent to their rescue] also in the camp, and Aaron [the light giver, repeating the counsel of God, given from Moses who gave it to him as received] the saint [qodowsh – the LORD’s angel, messenger with His message, which is the sanctuary, safe place] of the LORD.
17 The earth opened [her mouth] and swallowed up Dathan [from dath, meaning royal edict and decreed law; as now when the world is ruled by the evil decrees of wicked men in power] and covered [kacah] the company [‘edah] of Abiram [that exalt and follow the corruption of their evil forefathers].
18 And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked [and they melt and are dissolved].
19 They made a calf [idols they created and put in God’s place] in Horeb [while they remained in desolation, impatiently not waiting for Moses to bring the counsel of God, of His unfolding new government], and worshipped the molten [that are formed by men into their] images.
20 Thus they [not waiting for the LORD’s word from heaven to have its full course] changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eats grass [things, words and ideas, that grow from the darkened earth].
21 They forgot God their savior, which had done great things in Egypt [helping those under the rule of the evil decrees of tyrant];
22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham [hot, from the fires kindled by the wicked ways of evil men in power], and terrible things by the Red sea [where the proud waves of the wicked are stopped].
23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him [paniym – in His presence] in the breach [perets – Perazim, the place where the LORD breaks forth as waters upon his enemies], to turn away his wrath [by giving understanding to those who’ve doubted], lest he should destroy them.
24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land [‘erets – this new earth He is creating], they believed not his word [was His presence manifested with them]:
25 But murmured [ragan – only appears two other times, the first, Deuteronomy 1:27, telling of when the people “murmured” against God’s plan to give them the land {now the earth}, after they heard the evil report of the spies the LORD sent before them; then later, in Isaiah 29:24, telling of when those who “murmured” in this way will learn this sound doctrine, when the blind see and the deft hear, at His will, what is hidden in their ignorance of His presence in His word] in their tents, and hearkened not unto [shama’ – still refusing to hear and obey] the voice of the LORD.
26 Therefore he lifted up his hand [exalted His word and work] against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:
27 To overthrow their seed also among the nations [that their ignorant ways would no longer be planted in the earth], and to scatter them in the lands [‘erets – throughout the earth].
28 They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor [the mouths {pe’ah} of false light {‘owr}; their masters {ba’al} they made idols they put in God’s place], and ate the sacrifices [deadly words and ways] of the dead [leading them in church and state].
29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions [of corrupt, deadly, words and ways of their idols]: and the plague [they wrought by their creations] brake in upon them [as serpents mixed among them in the camp, whose bites are killing them].
30 Then stood up Phinehas [whose mouth is like the serpent raised on a pole {nec} by Moses, and all who look to him are saved from the deadly bites of the serpent mixed among them; like the son of man must be lifted, so the word of God he speaks is exalted above all other voices, and thereby men shall live {see Numbers 21}], and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed.
31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness [the right way] unto all generations for evermore.
32 They angered him also at the waters of strife [mriybah – see Numbers 20], so that it went ill with Moses [because he refused to declare the LORD the Holy One in him, in the presence of the congregation, alive in him speaking and working, and instead he struck the rock as second time, and refusing to deny himself, he, like Peter, denied the LORD’s presence] for their sakes:
33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly [bata’ – see its only other three uses] with his lips.
34 They did not destroy [shamad – overthrow with My words] the nations [those who haven’t known Me, and refuse to acknowledge My presence manifested], concerning whom the LORD commanded them:
35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them [now upon all the earth].
37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils [misleaders possessed by the spirit of Satan, speaking his words and doing his work],
38 And shed innocent blood [in their wars for dominion, to win their own kingdoms, of hell], even the blood of their sons and of their daughters [killing many millions], whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan [the earth now obviously totally corrupt, a ruin My people will inherit]: and the land [‘erets – the earth] was polluted with blood.
39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
40 Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen [these evil men now in power, to finish their work destroying the hell they built]; and they that hated them ruled over them.
42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand [their works and evil decrees].
43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:
45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented [changed the end, the hell, they sought] according to the multitude of his mercies.
46 He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.
47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen [in power who refuse to know You], to give thanks unto your holy name [sanctifying, declaring Holy, declaring Pure, Your manifested identity], and to triumph in your praise.
48 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise you the LORD.

Psalms 22
1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me [the last words of the LORD, before His Spirit and soul left His flesh body: Matthew 27:46]? why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring [preaching Your word as commanded, as the second face of the LORD’s unfolding presence]?
2 O my God, I cry in the day time, but you hear not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
3 But you are holy, O you that inhabits the praises of Israel.
4 Our fathers trusted in you: they trusted, and you did deliver them.
5 They cried unto you, and were delivered: they trusted in you, and were not confounded.
6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
9 But you are he that took me out of the womb: you did make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts.
10 I was cast upon you from the womb: you are my God from my mother’s belly.
11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaves to my jaws; and you have brought me into the dust of death.
16 For dogs [endlessly barking in the darkness: this time when total ignorance of God covers the earth] have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have enclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19 But be not you far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste you to help me.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the lion’s mouth [those preaching corruption in Your name]: for you have heard me from the horns of the unicorns [the One and Only true power, Your Almighty Presence].
22 I will declare your name [Your identity alive, resurrected, in me] unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise you.
23 You that fear the LORD, praise him; all you the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all you the seed of Israel.
24 For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither has he hid his face [paniym – presence] from him [from me]; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25 My praise shall be of you in the great congregation: I will pay my vows [obeying Him as I vowed I would, preaching the word He’s given me, declaring it is Him alive with me, in me] before them that fear him.
26 The meek [who will inherit the earth] shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that [diligently] seek him: your heart shall live forever.
27 All the ends of the world [ending the old and beginning the new] shall remember [zakar] and turn [shuwb – return] unto the LORD [Jehovah]: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before You [paniym – in Your presence].
28 For the kingdom is the LORD’s: and he is the governor among the nations [all the world that hasn’t known Him].
29 All they that be fat [who prosper under the LORD’s governance] upon the earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust [descend, choose to remain, in the hell, the ruin they’ve created] shall bow before him [paniym – in His presence]: and none can keep alive his own soul.
30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the LORD for a generation [the first of His new creation].
31 They shall come [from death into life], and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he has done this.
