20 – 30 August 2026
Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.
In the above, Isaiah 47:1, the LORD is speaking to those whose confused, deceptive, and manipulative words have taken His people’s minds captive. He, in these last days of their darkness and possession, calls for them (from the place where they stand, the thrones from which they rule) to sit (surrender) in the ruin of the earth they have destroyed (ending all truthful discourse and replacing it with their creations: confusion, deception, and manipulation).
Psalms 137
1 By the rivers of Babylon [the words that flowed into us, teaching their ways of confusion, deception, and manipulation], there we sat down [in the ruin of the earth they destroyed], yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion [the LORD’s rule, from where flows truth and good leading, by which we learned to choose good and refuse evil].
2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof [we had no word from the LORD to repeat].
3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
4 How shall we sing the LORD’s song in a strange land [‘adamah – among this last evil generation]?
5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem [into who the LORD’s peace flowed His good teaching], let my right hand forget her cunning.
6 If I do not remember you, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth [not speaking words that aren’t the LORD’s]; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom [enemies mixed among us, who claim they are our brethren while they war against all good and right] in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to [destroy] the foundation thereof.
8 O daughter of Babylon, who are to be destroyed [by your own words and ways]; happy shall he be, that rewards you as you have served us.
9 Happy shall he be, that takes and dashes your little ones [you’ve taught your evil words and ways] against the stones [the Rock from where the LORD’s word flows].
Isaiah 47
1 Come down, and sit in the dust [the ruin of the earth, from where man is created], O virgin daughter of Babylon [of confusion], sit on the ground [‘erets – the old and corrupt earth]: there is no throne [there your reign is ended], O daughter of the Chaldeans [who use your words to manipulate and control My people into following your evil ways]: for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.
2 Take the millstones, and grind meal [qemach – your misleading, thorns]: uncover your locks [reveal the evil that has grown from your heads], make bare the leg, uncover the thigh [your evil ways], pass over [‘abar] the rivers [uncover your word of falsehood and lies flowing from you, and seeing, understanding this, Passover from death into life].
3 Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, your shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet you as a man [but as an Almighty Spirit, and Truth].
4 As for our redeemer, the LORD of hosts [a man of war] is his name [identity], the Holy One of Israel.
5 Sit you silent [ending your evil words], and get you into darkness [ignorance], O daughter of the Chaldeans [enchanters and sorcerers, using your words to manipulate and control the ignorant]: for you shall no more be called, The lady of kingdoms.
6 I was wroth with my people, I have polluted my inheritance [My people in whom I will dwell], and given them into your hand: you did show them no mercy; upon the ancient [elders] have you very heavily laid your yoke [joining them with your corrupt and confused words and ways].
7 And you said, I shall be a lady forever: so that you did not lay these things to your heart, neither did remember the latter end [‘achariyth – these last days of your darkness] of it.
8 Therefore hear now this, you that are given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in your heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:
9 But these two things shall come to you in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon you in their perfection [tom – from tamam, meaning complete and ended] for the multitude of your sorceries, and for the great abundance of your enchantments. [Jeremiah 14:15 Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the prophets {and there are many} that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword {this word of God they refuse to hear and obey} and famine {without this same word} shall not be in this land {‘erets – the earth}; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed {tamam}.]
10 For you have trusted in your wickedness: you have said, None see me. Your wisdom and your knowledge, it has perverted you; and you have said in your heart [minds], I am, and none else beside me.
11 Therefore shall evil come upon you; you shall not know from whence it rises: and mischief shall fall upon you; you shall not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon you suddenly [pith’owm – not known to the ignorant, not seeing it until it is completed], which you shall not know. [Acts 17:38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man {raised from the dead and not speaking corruption} is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: 39 And by him all that believe {that God raised Him} are justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses. 40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets; 41 Behold, you despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which you shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.]
12 Stand now with your enchantments, and with the multitude of your sorceries, wherein you have labored from your youth; if so be you shall be able to profit, if so be you mayest prevail.
13 You are wearied [la’ah] in the multitude of your counsels [all speaking your own creation and commending one and other for your brilliance]. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, [all the falsely so-called wise men and experts of this corrupt and insane world] stand up, and save you from these things that shall come [suddenly] upon you.
14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.
15 Thus shall they be unto you with whom you have labored, even your merchants, from your youth: they shall wander [deceive] every one to his quarter; none shall save you.
Friends, the above, once again, brings to mind the great paradox of our time, looking to the same people who perpetrated the crime, first into apostasy, then total spiritual death, and into hell where they, with their corrupt word, hold all the world captive, to lead us out of this state. Remember, more of the cause is never the cure, nor can it be.
Isaiah 8
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].
Excuse me for again digressing, necessarily, for information’s sake, but let it be known that the Muslim invasions are merely one of many chosen weapons of the communists destroying Western (Christian, capitalist, truthful, and God-fearing) civilization. The underlying consistency (in their methods: means) is corruption and disruption through disorder, producing general confusion about existing, recognized, better systems, which is the intentional educational (intellectual) degeneration and demoralization of the people en masse. The evidence of their deliberate attacks’ obvious success (the possession of all institutions, private and governmental) is when a third of the people (U.S. citizens, as with other nations) favor their own destruction (by these means) over freedom.
We see, in every case, the renunciation of reality, replacing it with obviously irrational, counterintuitive standards of behavior; actions which ignore and deny the stability (efficacy, superior positive cause and effect) in the former state (unaffected, untainted by the communists’ methods). The new status quo instead embraces chaos and the (also obvious) inevitable end result: the destruction (as planned) of the old, and acceptance of the now totally (incapable) corrupt, unsustainable farces replacing it. These were the beginning of sorrows, and now we’re all dead and here in (the resulting) hell.
Mark 13
4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?
5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:
6 For many [false prophets and false Christs] shall [have come] come in my name, saying, I am Christ [Christos – its ultimate origin is from chrio, meaning “contact, from the word chraomai {as in erchomai}, meaning, “perhaps rather from 5495 {cheir}, to handle); to 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,” from cheir, meaning “perhaps from the base of 5494 {cheo, to pour, as in a rain storm} in the sense of its congener the base of 5490 {chasma, the “whale’s” belly, the hell, the open mouths of evil men and ignorant men, who have swallowed all humanity} (through the idea of hollowness for grasping); the hand (literally or figuratively (power); especially (by Hebraism) a means or instrument,” the weapons, means, and methods of evil]; and shall deceive many.
7 And when you shall hear of wars and rumors of [endless] wars, be you not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
8 For nation [who haven’t and don’t know the LORD] shall rise against nation [who haven’t and don’t know the LORD], and kingdom [basileis – from basis, the base upon which they stand, speaking the opinions upon which they act] against kingdom [those equally without a firm foundation, each arguing their own supremacy]: and there shall be earthquakes [seismos – the storms shaking the earth] in divers places [to shake the wicked, those calling their erroneous opinions truth], and there shall be famines [in these places without this word of God, refusing the manna, the bread of life: this understanding from the mouth of the LORD, by which man lives] and troubles [lacking His word causing the ongoing tribulation of the confused]: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues you shall be beaten: and you shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.
10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
11 But when they shall [mis]lead you, and deliver you up [betraying you as they betrayed the LORD], take no thought beforehand what you shall speak, neither do you premeditate [meletao, only use here, in Acts 4:25 rendered “imagine,” quoting Psalms 2:1 & 2; and in 1 Timtohy 4:15 rendered “meditate”]: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak you: for it is not you that speak, but [now, from here] the Holy Ghost [the LORD unknown speaking and working]. [Acts 4:25 Who by the mouth of your servant David has said {in Psalms 2:1 & 2}, Why did the heathen {who haven’t and don’t know the LORD} rage, and the people imagine {meletao} vain {worthless} things {opinions}? 26 The kings {basileus – kingdoms} of the earth stood up {against the LORD}, and the rulers were gathered together {with one confused mind} against the LORD {the Father, Jehovah}, and against his Christ {from whom the Father speaks, unknown, until He chooses to reveal Himself, which He promises to do}. 1 Timothy 4:11 These {necessary} things command and teach. 12 Let no man despise your youth {before I put away the childish things of men’s creations}; but be you an example of the believers, in word, in conversation {from where we look for the LORD}, in charity {giving this word as received}, in spirit {of the LORD, with us, in us}, in faith {knowing the truth that it is Him working and speaking}, in purity {by His correction away from corruption, by which we again see Him}. 13 Till I come {erchomai – until I, in these prophesies, receive these necessary utterance from the LORD, which are held below the surface of His written word}, give attendance to reading, to exhortation {paraklesis – leading all into the same truth, as received}, to {sound} doctrine {from which all have strayed}. 14 Neglect not the gift {this grace of the LORD} that is {the only glory} in you, which was given you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of {the work of the LORD through} the presbytery {the elders, who understood the ancient things}. 15 Meditate {meletao} upon these things; give yourself wholly to them; that your profiting {the manifestation of the treasures that, in you, increase into the Salvation of the new world} may appear to all. 16 Take heed unto yourself {continue to hear and obey Him}, and unto the {treasures of sound} doctrine; continue in them {until they increase into profiting all}: for in doing this you shall both save yourself, and them that hear you {speaking this word received from the LORD}.]
12 Now [the enemies mixed among us, as] the brother shall [as did Judas] betray the brother to death [of a mind absent the LORD], and [opinion against opinion] the father the son; and children shall rise up [with worthless opinions] against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.
13 And you shall be hated of all men for my name’s [my identity manifested in these word] sake: but he that shall endure [continue in My word] unto the end, the same shall be saved [when this word is given free course and prospers, profits, all].
14 But when you shall see the abomination of desolation [men’s creation, put in the LORD’s place, and called by His name], spoken of by Daniel the prophet [the shiqquwts, which Daniel learned from reading Jeremiah 32:34, saying “But they set their abominations {shiqquwts} in the house, which is called by my name, to defile it,”] standing where it ought not, (let him that reads [as did Daniel] understand,) then let them that be in Judaea [Judah, the same as Judas, among the betrayers of the LORD] flee to the mountains:
15 And let him that is on the housetop [to escape the brawling unfaithful women therein] not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house [because all that is therein is corrupted]:
16 And let him that is in the field [doing the LORD’s work] not turn back again [to the totally corrupt houses where the dead are housed] for to take up his garment.
17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days [because all teaching and upbringing is corrupted by all the institutions of church and state]!
18 And pray you that your flight be not in the winter [when the love of all is waxed cold, and the days are shortened by darkness].
19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be [when all are ignorant of their own coming destruction, because they have been slow boiled in the fires of hell].
20 And except that the LORD had shortened those days [by the sudden end of the wicked, which they never saw coming], no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he has chosen, he has shortened the days [by the end that come when the elect speak this word as received, as in verse 11 above].
21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here [speaking and working] is Christ [who knows the way to the end]; or, lo, he is there; believe him not [speaking of all who can’t stop speaking their own words, while claiming they are doing the work of God.]
22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise [with many lying signs and wonders that mean nothing], and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect [the remnant that is following the LORD alone, Who alone has and gives this word of life: understanding and light].
23 But take you heed [hear, see, and obey Him]: behold, I have foretold you all [these necessary] things.
24 But in those days, after that [ending the] tribulation, the sun shall be darkened [the church realized to be totally lacking understanding: life and light], and the moon shall not give her light [equally without any life or understanding in their words and works],
25 And the stars of heaven shall fall [all God’s people fallen from heaven, without any understanding because their teachers are fallen angels, who left their first estate and now speak only their corrupt words and ways], and the powers that are in heaven [the places where understanding should be found and isn’t] shall be shaken [to shake the wicked from them].
26 And then [when their eyes are opened to their fallen state] they shall see the Son of man [in the flesh the LORD has chosen] coming [erchomai – with these necessary utterances] in the clouds [where understanding was held when it left the earth in separated elements {stoicheion}, congealed and sent from the mouth of the LORD, from whom this life giving water flows] with great power and glory [in His word that effectually works in those who receive it as Him and His].
27 And then shall he send his angels [His true messenger, who remain with Him, who declare it is His word as received], and shall gather together his elect from the four winds [the false doctrines of the world, by which they were scattered into death and hell], from the uttermost part of the [old and corrupt] earth to the uttermost part of [the old and corrupt] heaven.
28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and puts forth leaves [from a root in a dry ground], you know that summer is near: [Isaiah 53: Who has believed our report {shmuw’ah – heard this voice as the voice of Jehovah, as it is}? and to whom {but those who have} is the arm of the LORD revealed {galah – in this apocalypse, the uncovering of the LORD by uncovering His work and word in this wheel within a wheel}? 2 For he shall grow up {‘alah} before him {paniym – manifesting the LORD’s presence} as a tender plant, and as {if from} a {dead} root out of a dry ground {‘erets – from the earth without this word of God}: he has no form nor comeliness {hadar – no earthly power or position}; and when we {and all} shall see him, there is no beauty {mar’eh – no earthly worth} that we should desire him {as Saul was desired, as men desire other men to lead them, from positions of prominence].
29 So you in like manner, when you shall see these things come to pass [as you have], know that it is nigh, even at the doors [that must be opened to let Him come in, or he will come as a thief unknown in the darkness: men’s ignorance].
30 Truly I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass [parerchomai – without hearing these necessary things again], till all these things be done.
31 [The old and corrupt] Heaven and earth shall pass away [parerchomai – by these necessary things separated from them]: but my words shall not pass away [parerchomai – these necessary utterances shall remain].
32 But of that day and that hour knows no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father [who reveals it at His will, in His way].
33 Take you heed, watch and pray: for you know not when the time is [of His visitation].
34 For the Son of Man is as a man [in the flesh] taking a far journey [into this time rules by the evil decrees of wicked men in power], who left his house [to be guarded and protected from corruption], and gave authority to his servants [to keep it as received], and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch [so he could open the doors at the time appointed].
35 Watch you therefore: for you know not when the master of the house comes [in the visitation], at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:
36 Lest coming [erchomai – with these necessary utterances] suddenly [exaiphnes – unexpected, as He came upon Paul on the road to Damascus, seen as a great light from heaven] he find you sleeping [in death, without any understanding of the time and moment of the LORD’s visitation].
37 And what I say unto you I say unto all [the world], Watch [and He shall be seen as He is].
Isaiah 48
1 Hear [shama’ – obey] you this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah [this word I’ve sent to My elect remnant], which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.
3 I have declared the former things from the beginning [of the creation of this new heaven and earth]; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them; I did them suddenly [pith’owm], and they came to pass.
4 Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck [wherein my words are held but not yet spoken] is an iron sinew, and your brow brass [you are hard headed against My harder head];
5 I have even from the beginning declared it to you; before it came to pass I showed it you: lest you shouldest say, My idol has done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, has commanded them.
6 You have heard, see all this; and will not you declare it [as I’ve commanded]? I have shown you new things [chadash] from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them [the many mysteries only revealed here, which were not known].
7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when you heard them not; lest you shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
8 Yea, you heard [shama’ – obeyed] not; yea, you knew not; yea, from that time that your ear was not opened: for I knew that you would deal very treacherously [bagad], and were called a transgressor from the womb.
9 For my name’s sake will I defer my anger, and for my praise will I refrain for you, that I cut you not off.
10 Behold, I have refined you, but not with silver; I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction.
11 For my own sake, even for my own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.
12 Hearken [shama’ – obey] unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
13 My hand also has laid the foundation of the [new] earth, and my right hand has spanned the [new] heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
14 All you, assemble yourselves [into My ONE BODY], and hear [shama’ – obey]; which among them [except My anointed] has declared these things? The LORD has loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon [the confusion that rules the world], and his arm [this work] shall be on the Chaldeans [against those using their words to manipulate and control into doing evil].
15 I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous [the profiting that brings salvation to those who receive it].
16 Come you near unto me, hear [shama’ – obey] you this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the LORD God, and his Spirit, has sent me.
17 Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD your God which teaches you to profit, which leads you by the way that you shouldest go.
18 O that you had hearkened [qashab – let these words pierce your ear and enter your minds] to my commandments! then had your peace been as a river, and your righteousness as the waves of the sea:
19 Your seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of your bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me [paniym – left my presence].
20 Go you forth of Babylon, flee you from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare you [as I have commanded], tell this, utter it even to the end of the [old and corrupt] earth; say you, The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob.
21 And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the Rock for them: he clave the Rock also, and the waters [this word] gushed out.
22 There is no peace, says the LORD, unto the wicked.
Again: Friends, it is time for the elect remnant to open their mouths and declare that the LORD is present with us, in His word in us. It must be heard, but it is not, because no one truly believes He has risen in me, in anyone, here or anywhere. No matter how many words He speaks, it is never enough. The world, God’s people, sit still with closed mouths, waiting for some greater evil, foretold by their false prophets, to descend upon them before they will believe.
There is no sign but this sign: sending me (us), like Jonah risen from the belly of hell, to call all the world to repentance, to leave behind the corruption that blinded all from seeing and hearing Him, the same yesterday, today, and forever, in this conversation.
Hebrews 13
1 Let brotherly love [philadelphia – charity, giving this word as received, which is the conversation with the LORD] continue.
2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers [whose words, conversation, seems foreign to you who only know corruption]: for thereby some have entertained angels [the LORD’s messengers] unawares.
3 Remember them that are in bonds [who, with a vow, have joined the LORD in His ONE BODY], as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity [speaking these necessary things that men oppose, because all they have learned are men’s creations], as being yourselves also in the [same ONE] body [with this same conversation].
4 Marriage [joining the LORD as His One flesh Body] is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled [again a reference to Reuben, the pattern of the son of perdition, who put himself in his father’s place, and for doing so, lost his birthright]: but whoremongers [those whose merchandise is dead flesh] and adulterers [who left the LORD, their first estate, and now speak the words of idols put in His place] God will judge.
5 Let your conversation [tropos – meaning “a turn, i.e. (by implication) mode or style (especially with preposition or relative prefix as adverb, like); figuratively, deportment or character:–(even) as, conversation, (+ like) manner, (+ by any) means, way”] be without covetousness [unaffected by want of something in return]; and be content with such [necessary] things as you have [received from Him]: for he [being always present with us, in us] has said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you.
6 So that we may boldly say [declaring His presence with us, in us], The LORD is my helper [boethos – rescuer], and I will not fear what man shall do [poieo – with their corrupt, opinion based, conversations] unto me.
7 Remember them which have the rule over you [hegeomai – been sent to lead into salvation], who [in this conversation] have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith [knowing the LORD is with us, in us] follow, considering the end of [ekbasis – the way of escape is] their conversation [anastrophe – manifesting the LORD in His manner: words and way to salvation].
8 Jesus Christ [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh of the Father’s choosing] the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
9 Be not carried about with [the winds of] divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace [this gift of the LORD, that comes through His conversation with us, and from in us]; not with meats [the works of dead flesh], which have not profited [not prospered into the salvation of] them that have been occupied therein [peripateo – whose whole manner is this way, walking without leading to salvation].
The only other time the word ekbasis appears is in 1 Corinthians 10:13 (meaning, through, ek, this firm footing or way, basis; the “end” that is the way, escaping doubt, afforded in the conversation with those sent to lead us into salvation).
1 Corinthians 10
1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that you should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud [from where understanding comes], and all passed through the sea [of humanity];
2 And were all baptized unto Moses [dawn from the waters below] in the cloud and in the sea;
3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock [from whom flowed {the waters of this baptism} into all humanity {the sea} the Father’s understanding {from the cloud}] was Christ.
5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil [misleading] things, as they also lusted.
7 Neither be you idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed [with idols], and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9 Neither let us tempt Christ [not believing He is with us, in us], as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents [men slithering among them, whose poisonous words they instead heard and obeyed].
10 Neither murmur you, as some of them also murmured [against Moses, and the manna, loathing this light bread], and were destroyed of the destroyer.
11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples [as patterns giving understanding]: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come [ending the old and totally corrupt, beginning the new wherein dwells the LORD’s righteousness].
12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he stands take heed [to hear and obey the LORD’s voice] lest he fall [into apostasy, found to be standing apart from the LORD, while telling him to stay away because you are holier than He].
13 There has no temptation [to doubt the LORD] taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape [ekbasis – this end, suddenly revealing Himself in this conversation], that you may be able to bear it.
14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry [the creations of men, which these same corrupt men call by the LORD’s name].
15 I speak as to wise men; judge you what I say.
16 The cup of blessing [given to us by the living LORD] which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ [the necessary sacrifice of the flesh in which the LORD has chosen to reveal Himself]? The bread [this manna, which men don’t realize is this word from the mouth of the LORD] which we break [and give it as received], is it not the communion [the common union with the LORD in this conversation] of the [ONE] body of Christ?
17 For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
19 What say I then? that the idol is anything, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles [those who haven’t and don’t know the LORD] sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils [the gods of the world, the misleaders, the false stars, who lead men astray], and not to God: and I would not that you should have fellowship with devils [misleaders misleading God’s people].
21 You cannot drink the cup of the LORD, and the cup of devils: you cannot be partakers of the LORD’s table, and of the table of devils.
The one time the word basis (the way we walk without stumbling) appears, cryptically in Acts 3:7, speaking of healing a man’s lack of this ability, the mental acuity to do so (escape death’s hold).
Hebrews 12
9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection [hupotasso – under this orderly arrangement; subordinate] unto the Father of spirits, and live [be brought from death into life]?
10 For they truly for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he [has long-suffered] for our profit [this end, when the massage is complete], that we might be partakers of his holiness [without corruption].
11 Now no chastening [correction] for the present seem to be joyous [seems to be revealing the LORD’s presence with us], but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yields [the profit of] the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised [from whom corruption is worked out] thereby.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down [not working], and the feeble knees [unable to carry you];
13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame [cholos – halt: to wander off the right path] be turned out of the way; but let it [the right way] rather be healed.
14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, [purity of mind] without which no man shall see the LORD:
15 Looking [to see Him] diligently lest any man fail of the grace [this gift of His mind given] of God; lest any root of bitterness [murmuring in disbelief] springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled [and are unable to comprehend Him];
16 Lest there be any fornicator [interacting with idols, men’s misleading creations], or profane person [bebelos – crossing the threshold {into hell}], as Esau [the enemies mixed among us, who claim they are our friends and brethren, while they war against us and vilify God’s plan], who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
17 For you know how that afterward [in these last days], when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he [refusing to receive His sight, unable to see as the LORD sees] found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears. [Jonah 2:8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy {and remain in the whale’s belly: the belly of hell into which lying mouths have swallowed them}.]
Acts 3
1 Now Peter [the Rock, from whom the LORD’s word flows] and John [the dove, the sign of the end reached, when all are called to repentance] and went up together [with One mind] into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour [after sunset, when light, understanding, was removed from the earth].
2 And a certain man lame [cholos – halt] from [ek – through] his mother’s womb [koilia – this is the whale’s “belly,” the “heart” {mind} of the earth where the LORD said he would be until he is seen again; see Matthew 12:40] was carried [bastazo – basis tasso, the base upon which he is set], whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple [waiting for the LORD to appears as the sunrise] which is called Beautiful [horaios – meaning “belonging to the right hour or season (timely); i.e. (by implication) flourishing…”], to ask alms [for charity, to be given something of value] of them that entered into the temple;
3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us [see as we see, with the eyes the LORD has given us].
5 And he gave heed unto [heard and obeyed] them, expecting to receive something of [worldly value from] them.
6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have [received from the LORD] give I you: In the name [the identity manifested in the word given] of Jesus Christ [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh He chooses] of Nazareth [the one separated from the sight of all the world, by the same cause that made all God’s people lame] rise up [egeiro – awaken to life, by this light, understanding given as received] and walk [back to the right way].
7 And he took him by the right hand [the works of the right way], and lifted him up [egeiro – awakened, raised, him from death into life]: and immediately his feet [basis – the foundation upon which he has risen, stands] and ankle bones [sphuron – his “sphere” of enlightenment, from the sun rising again bringing it] received strength [understanding].
8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered [eiserchomai – reaching this point aimed at, hearing and speaking these necessary utterances, flourishing, profiting, prospering] with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
9 And all the people saw him walking [the right way] and praising God:
10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful [horaios – “belonging to the right hour or season (timely); i.e. (by implication) flourishing…”] gate of the temple: and they [not understanding what they were experiencing] were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.
11 And as the lame [cholos] man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon’s [to hear the One greater that Solomon speak], greatly wondering [still not understanding what they were experiencing].
12 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, You men of Israel, why marvel you at this? or why look you so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk [the right way]?
13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Son Jesus [the flesh in which Jehovah has chosen to reveal Himself and His Salvation]; whom you delivered up, and denied [the Father’s presence with and in] him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
14 But you denied the Holy One and the Just [who is the giver of the Father’s light, life, and understanding], and desired [one without these, who is] a murderer [taking away life and understanding] to be granted unto you [Barabbas – the “son of a {different} father or master”];
15 And killed the Prince of life [light and understanding], whom God has raised from the dead [showing His light and life returned again in Him]; whereof we are witnesses.
16 And his name [identity] through faith in his name [it is Him manifested in our flesh] has made this man strong [by receiving this word as His, as it is], whom you see and know: yea, the faith which is by [experiencing] him has given him this perfect soundness [which completes him into the ONE BODY] in [manifesting] the [LORD’s] presence of [to] you all.
17 And now, brethren, I wot [know] that through ignorance you did it [denied Him and His presence manifested in this manner], as did also your rulers.
18 But those things, which God before had showed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ [in our flesh unknown] should suffer, he has so fulfilled.
19 Repent [as is the call to all] you therefore, and be converted [epistrepho – returned to the right way, a right, well ordered, mind], that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing [this is a direct reference to Isaiah 28, when the LORD tells of the drunken {with dysfunctional and disordered minds} leaders of His people, who’ve made a covenant with death and are in agreement with hell, that this word coming line and precept upon line and precept is the rest and refreshing, and they refused to receive it] shall come [line and precept upon line and precept] from the presence of the LORD.
20 And he shall send Jesus Christ [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh He chooses], which before was preached unto you:
21 Whom the heaven must receive [the light, this word of God, reserved there] until the times of restitution [apokatastasis – taking away what caused the fall, reconstruction, speaking of the new creation] of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the LORD your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall you hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25 You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in your seed [who receive this promised end] shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
26 Unto you first God, having [suddenly] raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in [this course correction] turning away every one of you from his iniquities.
The word above rendered “iniquities” is the Greek word poneria, used seven times, meaning “depravity, i.e. (specially) malice; plural (concretely) plots, sins:—iniquity, wickedness.” Of course, as is the Lord’s way, His perfect manner, His means consist in leading us to the other places where He’s used this same word, in order to explain it to all.
1 Corinthians 4
14 I [Timothy] write not these things to shame you, but as [a father to] my beloved sons I warn you.
15 For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have you not many fathers: for [as your father] in Christ Jesus [the Father, Jehovah, manifesting His salvation in my flesh] I have begotten you through the gospel.
16 Wherefore I beseech you, be you followers of me.
17 For this cause have I [by the Father in me speaking and working] sent unto you Timothy [time of God], who is my beloved son, and faithful in the LORD, who shall [as the Parakletos] bring you into remembrance of my [good] ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.
18 Now some are puffed up [with pride in their position and power to impose falsehood upon all the world], as though I would not come to you.
19 But I will come to you shortly, if the LORD wills, and will know, not the speech [of falsehood] of them which are puffed up, but the [true] power [of the LORD’s word working in us to end falsehood and establish truth].
20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power [to change the world].
21 What will you? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?
1 Corinthians 5
1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication [interaction with ungodly men] among you, and such fornication [interaction with these men as idols worshipped] as is not so much as named among the Gentiles [those who haven’t and don’t know the LORD as you do, by interaction, common-union in this conversation], that one should [in this manner, with evil words and ways] have his father’s wife [as did Reuben, the pattern of the son of perdition, who shall not excel, not prosper or remain].
2 And you are puffed up [proud of such men], and have not rather mourned [that they have put themselves in the LORD’s place with His one body], that he that has done this [evil] deed [holding you down] might be taken away from among [mesos] you.
3 For I truly, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that has so done this deed,
4 In the name of our LORD Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together [with His one mind], and my spirit, with the power of our LORD Jesus Christ,
5 To deliver such an [evil] one unto Satan for the destruction of the [creations, leaven, corruption, of the] flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the LORD Jesus.
6 Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?
7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that you may be [by the LORD creating us] a new lump, as you are unleavened [when this corruptible has again put on incorruption]. For even Christ [formed in us] our Passover [to bring us from death into life] is [necessarily] sacrificed for us [with us, in our flesh]:
8 Therefore let us [here and now] keep the feast, not with old [corrupt] leaven, neither with the leaven of malice [kakia – spreading known evil: misleading] and wickedness [poneria]; but with the unleavened bread [this conversation with the LORD] of sincerity and truth.
Romans 1
15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome [meaning strength, speaking of the spiritually wicked, those in power against which we war] also.
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes [it is His and Him present therein]; to the Jew [Judah – the elect remnant] first, and also to the Greek.
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith [His own acceptance of the LORD with us, in us revealed].
18 For the wrath of God [this word of God the powers refuse] is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth [captive] in [their] unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in [His correction of] them; for God has showed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things [reserved] of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made [the assembly of these before separated elements of understanding], even [revealing] his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations [the delusions created in their sleeping minds], and their foolish heart [mind] was darkened [made ignorant of all these necessary things].
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the un-corruptible [Spirit of] God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things [without His Holy Spirit].
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who [putting themselves in His place] changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature [men’s creations] more than the [true] Creator [of all good things], who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile [atimia – without honor] affections: for even their women did change the natural use [as a helper to help man, as the church should be] into that which is against nature [no longer helping those they were created to serve, but serving the men who put themselves in the LORD’s place]:
27 And likewise also the men [who put themselves in the LORD’s place], leaving the natural use of the woman [to help them], burned in their lust one toward another [seeking the commendation of others who left the LORD and put themselves in His place]; men with men working that which is unseemly [aschemosune – against the LORD plan {“scheme”} to gather His people into ONE BODY with One Head: Godhead], and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet [deserved].
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind [without any proof of life], to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with [the spirit of] all unrighteousness, fornication [poneria – interaction with idols], wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of [the true] God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Ephesians 6
8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man does, the same shall he receive of the LORD, whether he be bond or free.
9 And, you masters [kurios – in whom the LORD dwells], do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening [instead long-suffering to bring understanding]: knowing that your Master [kurios – the LORD speaking and working] also is in heaven [the place where full understanding is found]; neither is there respect of persons with him [shining this light upon all, teaching all the way into His family and eternal life].
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the LORD [kurios – alive in our flesh], and in the power of his might [in His word, giving understanding by it effectually working in us, to form His same mind, a good conscience {co-perspective} in us].
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles [methodeia – methods] of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness [ignorance and its resulting confusion, delusion, and now finally mass insanity] of this world, against spiritual wickedness [poneria] in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand [rising to life in the resurrection].
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about [prepared with these signs of life] with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel [this word] of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith [knowing the LORD is always with us, in us], wherewith you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts [evil words thrown through the air] of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation [the protection of your minds], and the sword of the Spirit, which is the [this good] word of God:
18 Praying [proseuchomai – putting forward {pros} these good {eu} necessary utterances {chomai}] always with all prayer [proseuche] and supplication [deesis – in this conversation suppling what is needed] in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance [long-suffering] and supplication [deesis] for all saints;
19 And for me, that utterance [logos – the word of God] may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly [speaking His word and declaring it is His presence with us, in us], to make known the mystery of the gospel [which is Christ is us],
20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds [joined together with the LORD in His work]: that therein I may speak boldly [outspokenly of His presence and plan {good scheme}], as I ought to speak.
In the other uses of the words exaiphnes and pith’owm, speaking of the “sudden” (unexpected) end that comes striking down those opposing and attacking the LORD’s work, we are given further verification of the pattern that should be recognized, ending the wonder about what (who) the ignorant and sleeping are experiencing.
Acts 9
1 And Saul [those God’s people “desired”], yet [the spirit in them] breathing out threatening [against those who hear and believe the LORD’s voice] and slaughter against the disciples [mathetes – pupils here learning] of the LORD, went unto the high priest,
2 And desired of him letters [epistole – authorization] to Damascus [where the work is silences and God’s people sit in mourning] to the synagogues [and churches, where the dead are housed], that if he found any of this [good] way, whether they were men or women [alive among the dead], he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem [to the seat of corruption, where men {devils} have put themselves in the LORD’s place].
3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly [exaiphnes] there shined round about him [he received understanding directly into his mind as] a light from heaven:
4 And he [realizing his fallen state] fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecute [doiko – to pursue] you me [like the Egyptians pursued God’s people into the sea, ignorant of the precarious position they put themselves in]?
5 And he said, Who are you, LORD [kurios]? And the LORD [kurios] said, I am Jesus [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested] whom you persecute [doiko – have pursued here, as if into the sea]: it is hard [skleros – it is as dry, parched, ground] for you to kick against [laktizo – only used one other time, also telling of this event; with affinity to the words likmao and tasso, telling of grinding his corrupt thinking into powder] the pricks [kentron – which were death’s sting – see 1 Corinthains 15:55 & 56, speaking the victory over death and its “sting” which is the corruptible law]. [The word likmao only appears twice, both following the LORD quoting Psalms 118:22; Luke 20:17 And he beheld them {the builders who reject Him}, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? {Psalms 118:23 This is the LORD’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.} 18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone {the Rock from where flows this word of the LORD} shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it {He} will grind him to powder {likmao}.]
6 And he trembling and astonished [yet unable to comprehend what he was experiencing] said, LORD [kurios], what will you have me to do? And the LORD [kurios] said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told you what you must do.
The title kurios (meaning “from kuros (supremacy); supreme in authority, i.e. (as noun) controller; by implication, Master (as a respectful title)”) is the same as the twice-used word kuroo (meaning “the same as 2962 [kurios]; to make authoritative, i.e. ratify:—confirm”).
The above goes on to tell of Ananias being sent to Saul (Paul). Ananias is from the Hebrew name Hananiah (Chananyah), from chanan, meaning “to bend or stoop in kindness to an inferior; to favor, bestow; causatively to implore (i.e. move to favor by petition),” and the name Yahh (Jehovah).
The reference in the name Ananias is to the use of the word chanan in Numbers 6:25, speaking of the pattern of the sudden event that befell Saul and led to the proliferation of the gospel of Christ.
Numbers 6
22 And the LORD spoke unto Moses [the LORD’s chosen, who is separated from the corrupted waters of the below world], saying,
23 Speak [this same word] unto Aaron [the fire bringers, delivering this word as received from Moses, who delivered it as received] and unto his sons, saying, On this wise [giving this same word] you shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them,
24 The LORD bless you, and keep [shamar – protect and defend against corruption] you:
25 The LORD make his face [paniym – His presence] shine [‘owr – be luminous, giving light: understanding and life] upon you, and be gracious [chanan] unto you:
26 The LORD lift up [nasa’ – exalting His voice above the corrupt waters below] his countenance [paniym] upon you, and give you peace [shalam – completion].
27 And they shall put my name [identity] upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them [in this promised end reached].
Galatians 3
15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed [kuroo – in this way ratified, in manifestation of Christ], no man disannuls, or adds thereto.
16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He says not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your seed, which is [the ONE BODY of] Christ.
17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before [prokuroo] of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after [given through Moses], cannot disannul [akuroo], that it should make the promise of none effect.
18 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
19 Wherefore then serves the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come [erchomai – thought these necessary utterances] to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained [diatasso – orderly arranged] by angels [the LORD’s messengers] in the hand of a mediator [mesites – a ratifier, from the word mesos, meaning He is in our midst, dwelling with us, in us].
20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one [dwelling in all His children who receive the promised end].
21 Is the [pure] law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have [by correcting itself] given life [understanding], truly righteousness would have been by the law [without a mediator].
22 But the scripture has concluded [sugkleio – meaning it is completely shut up – the corrupted law has ended with] all under sin [hamartia – with all missing the mark, without the prize], that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ [Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh He chooses as the ratifier] might be given to them that believe [this word and work are His presence with us, in us].
23 But before faith came, we were kept under the [corrupted] law, shut up [sugkleio] unto [until] the faith which should afterwards [after the time when the written word was sealed] be revealed [apokalupto – the cover of darkness removed, in this apocalypse].
24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring [awaken] us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith [it is Jehovah’s Salvation manifested in the flesh He has chosen].
Proverbs 6
9 How long will you sleep, O sluggard? when will you arise out of your sleep?
10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
11 So shall your poverty come as one that travels [halak – goes his own way], and your want [machcowr – lack of awareness] as an armed man.
12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walks [halak] with a froward mouth [twisting and perverting truth].
13 He winks with his eyes [signaling that his eye is evil], he speaks with his feet [wandering off into transgression], he teaches with his fingers [false accusations];
14 Frowardness [deception] is in his heart [mind], he devises mischief continually; he sows discord [among friends].
15 Therefore shall his calamity [‘eyd] come suddenly [pith’owm]; suddenly [petha’] shall he be broken without remedy.
Deuteronomy 32
35 To me belongs vengeance and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity [‘eyd] is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
Isaiah 29
5 Moreover the multitude of your strangers 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 [petha’] suddenly [pith’owm].
6 You shall be visited [paqad] of the LORD of hosts [a man of war, the Chief Overseer of the earth] with thunder [the voice of understanding from the cloud], and with earthquake [ra’ash – shaking that brings the dead bone together, as the ONE BODY of Christ], and great noise [qowl – voice], with storm and tempest [ca’ar – the whirlwind from where the LORD’s voice is heard], and the flame of devouring fire [from the mouths of His chosen].
9 Stay yourselves, and wonder [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, and has closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers has he covered.
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
Psalms 64
1 Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:
3 Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:
4 That they may shoot [yarah – teach and flow their corrupt words] in secret at the perfect [tam – those God has completed: perfected with seeing Him through eyes of full understanding]: suddenly [pith’owm] do they shoot [yarah] at him [their bitter words as arrows through the air], and fear [yare’] not.
5 They encourage [chazaq – strengthen] themselves in an evil matter [dabar – their words]: they commune [caphar – they mark {with confusion}] of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them [the question often ignorantly asked by those who’ve turned God into a lie by wickedly redefining Him by their false teaching and false accusation while taking His name in vain: calling themselves Christian and Judah {Jew}]? [“because they say, He shall not see our last end {‘achariyth}.” Jeremiah 12:4; also see Deuteronomy 32:20 & 29 below.]
6 They search out [chaphas – to conceal their] iniquities; they accomplish [tamam – complete] a diligent search [chaphas – to mask their evil devices]: both the inward thought of every one of them and the heart [the corrupt foundation ideas upon which their evil words are based], is [the] deep [‘amoq – the deep they’ve covered in darkness – the ignorance come from their evil, which caused the earth to become without form, and void].
7 But God shall shoot [yarah – teach, flow this understanding as if from a Rock] at them with an arrow [through the air]; suddenly [pith’owm] shall they be wounded.
8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.
9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God [the ever present LORD]; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.
10 The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
