7 – 10 July 2023
Let not your heart envy sinners: but be you in the fear of the LORD all the day long. For surely there is an end; and your expectation shall not be cut off.
The word rendered “end,” above in Proverbs 23:17 & 18, is the word ‘achariyth, which we know, from Jacob’s using it in Genesis 49:1, speaks of these “last days.” There, in this, its only use in Genesis, he (Israel) is speaking to his children of what then “shall befall” (qara’) them.
The only other times the word qara’ appear in Genesis (42:4 & 38), it speaks of the mischief of death Jacob feared would come upon Benjamin if he is sent into Egypt (to meet their savior, unknown to be Joseph), and Israel thinking if this (death) occurred he would, in his old age, descend into hell. The spiritual meaning is what has occurred, the youngest child of God’s people has died (the “end” result of the fall, as the LORD said would come), and all God’s people now reside in hell ruled by tyrants.
Deuteronomy 31
24 And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end [kalah – the full end] of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished [tamam – complete, fulfilled],
25 That Moses commanded the Levites [leviathan – the. corrupted priesthood now raised again to life, by this word from the mouth of God], which bare the ark [in which is this testimony and above which the presence of the LORD is manifested in the conversation with Him] of the covenant of the LORD, saying,
26 Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against you.
27 For I know your rebellion, and your stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, you have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death?
28 Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call [the now corrupt condition of] heaven and earth to record against them.
29 For I know that after my death you will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall [qara’] you in the latter days [‘achariyth]; because you will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
30 And Moses spoke in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song [repeating this word the LORD gave], until they were ended [tamam].
When the title verses say “your expectation shall not be cut off,” the Hebrew words are tiqvah lo’ karath, meaning the end you hope for (tiqvah), shall not (lo’) be according to the covenant you made (karath). This idea of man making a covenant of his own, which the LORD overrides by correction, bringing instead His as promised, is spoken of earlier in this Proverb and in Numbers 23 & 24 when Balaam makes a covenant with Balak to curse God’s people.
Isaiah 28
5 In that day shall the LORD of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem [tsphiyrah – this mourning of the new day of His crowning] of beauty, unto the residue of his people,
6 And for a spirit of judgment to him that sits in judgment, and for strength [understanding] to them that turn the battle to the gate.
7 But they also have erred through wine [see Proverbs 23 following the title verses], and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
8 For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine [shmuw’ah – this teaching from the mouth of the LORD unknown]? them that are weaned from the milk [from the basic foundation principles], and [have now advanced to] drawn from the breasts [of the Ancient of Days: Wisdom as your mother].
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11 For with stammering lips [a language you don’t understand because it isn’t spoken among the ignorant] and another tongue [truth] will he speak to this people.
12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith you may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing [righting again the foundation and order of the earth, which men ruined]: yet they would not hear.
13 But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Proverbs 23
1 When you sit to eat with a ruler [the tyrants who now gaslight and demoralize the world], consider diligently what is before you [understand it is deception meant to impoverish and enslave you]:
2 And put a knife to your throat [stopping you from swallowing their ways of death], if you be a man given to appetite.
3 Be not desirous of his dainties: for they are deceitful meat.
4 Labor not to be rich: cease from your own wisdom [seek the treasures of heaven, and the wisdom that is Ancient of Day – the law of nature and nature’s God].
5 Will you set your eyes upon that which is not [good]? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.
6 Eat you not the bread of him that has an evil eye [conspiring wicked things], neither desire you his dainty meats [of deception]:
7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, says he to you; but his heart is not with you [in his mind he seeks to trap and enslave you in hell].
8 The morsel which you have eaten shall you vomit up [consuming wickedness you shall repeat it], and lose your sweet words [replacing truth with their deceptions]. [These verses, speak of the “crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim” in power, who are spoken of in the beginning verses of Isaiah 28]
9 Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of your words.
10 Remove not the old landmark [the standard marking the boundary between good and evil]; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless [because there is no man to protect them from the thieves and robbers]:
11 For their redeemer is mighty; he shall plead their cause with you.
12 Apply your heart unto instruction, and your ears to the words of knowledge.
13 Withhold not correction from the child: for if you beat him with the rod, he shall not die.
14 You shall beat him with the rod [this law from the mouth of God], and shall deliver his soul from hell.
15 My son, if your heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
16 Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when your lips speak right things.
17 Let not your heart envy sinners [who speak words meant to deceive]: but be you in the fear of the LORD [obeying His warning to not listen to the wicked] all the day long.
18 For surely there is an end [‘achariyth – these last days of the wicked who will not continue]; and your expectation [what you have hoped for] shall not be cut off [karath – shall not be as the covenant with death the wicked have made].
19 Hear you, my son, and be wise, and guide your heart [learn to choose] in the [good] way.
20 Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:
21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness [the sleep of ignorance] shall clothe a man with rags.
22 Hearken [shama’ – obey] unto your father [the truth, knowledge, and understanding of God] that begat you, and despise not your mother when she is old [wisdom that is Ancient of days – the law of nature and nature’s God].
23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.
24 The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begets a wise child shall have joy of [when He see His mind manifested in] him.
25 Your father and your mother shall be glad, and she that bare you shall rejoice.
26 My son, give me your heart, and let your eyes observe my ways.
27 For a whore [the unfaithful who follow the drunken crown] is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit.
28 She also lieth in wait as for a prey, and increases the transgressors among men.
29 Who has woe? who has sorrow? who has contentions? who has babbling? who has wounds without cause? who has redness of eyes?
30 They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine.
31 Look not you upon the wine when it is red, when it gives his color in the cup, when it moves itself aright.
32 At the last it bites like a serpent, and stings like an adder.
33 Your eyes shall behold strange [unfaithful]women, and your heart shall [by a mind corrupt by her] utter perverse things.
34 Yea, you shall be as he that lies down [to sleep] in the midst of the sea [with all humanity], or as he that lies [sleeps] upon the top of a mast [a precarious place from where the sleeping most certainly fall to their death].
35 They [these self-made afflictions] have stricken me, shall you say, and I was not sick; they have beaten me, and I felt it not: when shall I awake [and realize you were asleep]? I will seek it yet again [not understanding what you have experienced, being plainly shown but returning to listen to the same known liars who stupefied your mind].
Proverbs 24
5 A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increases strength [understanding as good {tasting} in the mouth].
6 For by wise counsel you shall make your war: and in a multitude of counselors [speaking the same words of the LORD, confirming their good taste] there is safety.
7 Wisdom is too high for a fool [who is unwilling to use the higher functions of his mind]: he opens not his mouth in the gate [against the wicked].
8 He that devises [uses his mind] to do evil shall be called a mischievous person.
9 The thought of foolishness is sin: and the scorner is an abomination to men.
10 If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small.
11 If you forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto [the mischief of] death, and those that are ready to be slain [by the wicked now in power over the earth];
12 If you sayest, Behold, we knew it not; does not he that ponders the heart [understanding “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?”] consider it? [“I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.”] and he that keeps [guards] your soul, does not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?
13 My son, eat you honey [this wisdom, knowledge, and understanding that continues – dbash: is sticky], because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to your taste:
14 So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto your soul: when you have found it, then there shall be a reward [‘achariyth – in these last days of the wicked in power], and your expectation [tiqvah] shall not [lo’] be cut off [karath – it shall not be according to the covenant with death the wicked have made, but you shall reach the expected end of the wicked in power, as promised by the LORD when he made it to Abram {before Abraham was, I Am}].
15 Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place:
16 For a just man falls seven times, and rises up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
17 Rejoice not when your enemy [becomes feeble and] falls [away from God the Father of us all], and let not your heart be glad when he stumbles [over his own ways again and again]:
18 Lest the LORD see it, and it displeases him, and he turns away his wrath from him.
19 Fret not yourself because of evil men, neither be you envious at the wicked:
20 For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle [the falsely so-called wisdom] of the wicked [“experts” who advise the corrupt] shall be put out.
21 My son, fear you the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change [the old landmarks: standards, the understanding of good and evil]:
22 For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knows the ruin of them both [evil and wickedness]?
23 These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment [the evil of the wicked in power: calling evil good and good evil].
24 He that says unto the wicked, You are righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:
25 But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them.
Matthew 12
34 O generation of vipers [whose poison is words from your mouths], how can you, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart [what the mind has been taught] the mouth speaks.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 For by your words [choosing good and refusing evil] you shall be justified, and by your words [calling good evil] you shall be condemned.
38 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees [the religious dividers of the ONE BODY] answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from you.
39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous [unfaithful] generation seeks after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonah [the dove, as was John the Baptist, the sign of the expected {tiqvah} end reached, calling all to repent, and working out {exercising} corruption preparing to receive the LORD at His then appearing {out of the darkness} into sight again, to establish His kingdom on earth, as it is in heaven: full understanding given in the exposition, the conversation above His mercy seat wherein His presence is manifested]:
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the whale’s [chasma, from ketos, the great “gulf” between heaven and hell {full understanding and endless ignorance}: the wide open mouths of ignorant and wicked men in the sea, which no man can Passover without following the LORD, doing the will of the Father who sent me] belly [this hell where all are now held dead]; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart [the fully leavened, corrupted, mind] of the earth.
41 The men of Nineveh [the resprouting of the perpetual, our hope {tiqvah}] shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it [as in Proverbs 24:25 above]: because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and, behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
42 The queen of the south [when she sees for herself what she before only heard rumor {Jehovah speaking unknown} of] shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it [as in Proverbs 24:25 above]: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
43 When the unclean [corrupt] spirit is gone out of a man [when he awakens], he walketh through dry places [without this word of God], seeking rest [and refreshing], and finds none.
44 Then he says, I will return into my house [the church] from whence I came out; and when he is come, he finds it empty, swept [without form, and void], and garnished.
45 Then goes he [looking for substance, solution], and taketh with himself seven other spirits [of the old and corrupt churches, without light] more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and [now thinking he is safe, remaining without understanding] the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be [it now is] also unto this wicked generation.
46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.
47 Then one said unto him, Behold, your mother and your brethren stand without, desiring to speak with you.
48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples [students who’ve here received the LORD’s understanding, receiving Him manifested in the conversation], and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Matthew 17
5 While he yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear you him.
Jeremiah 17
7 Blessed is the man that trusts in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spread out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat comes, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought [when others are without this word of God], neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
11 As the partridge sits on eggs, and hatches them not; so he that gets riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
12 A glorious high throne from the beginning [of this new creation] is the place of our sanctuary.
13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake you shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
Job 14 speaks of our hope (tiqvah), we who continue, shoot forth perpetually, as the green leaves of a good tree, awakened again, born by the work of the LORD (our hope) in Whom we trust.
Job 14
1 Man that is born of a woman [flesh covering as changeable garment] is of few days and full of trouble.
2 He comes forth like a flower, and is cut down: he flees also as a shadow, and continues not.
3 And do you open your eyes upon [awaken to now see] such a one [that is only flesh], and bring me [here and now] into judgment with you?
4 Who can bring a clean thing [that isn’t corrupt] out of an unclean [continued corruption]? not one.
5 Seeing his [the corrupt] days are determined [charats – the days of desolation, consummation, and the end of the indignation], the number of his [the one sent to accomplish and end the] months are with you, you have appointed [‘asah – created] his bounds [choq – the decreed end] that he cannot [lo’] pass [‘abar – the wicked will not Passover into life: they will not “excel” or “continue”];
6 Turn from [sha’ah – consider, and understand his confusion] him, that he may rest [chadal – desist, no longer deceive], till he shall accomplish [ratsah – repent and become acceptable – as in Job 33:26 & 34:9], as a hireling [sakiyr – as in Job 7:1 & 2, receiving his payment: coming to understanding and receiving the LORD’s mercy and forgiveness], his day.
7 For there is hope [tiqvah – the pattern of the expected end the LORD brings to man] of a tree, if it be cut down [karath – end the covenant he made with death], that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
8 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
9 Yet through the scent of water [humanity receiving this word of God, His still small voice] it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.
10 But man dies [as he has, as warned is the end of the fall away from God], and wastes away: yea, man gives up the ghost [the LORD’s Spirit in man, which is life], and where is he?
11 As the waters [the word of God] fail from the sea [not heard by humanity], and the flood [of men’s words] decays [charab – bring desolation as they have] and dry up [now when there is no word of God remaining uncorrupted, except now here with the elect remnant, the scent, not heard of seen with the human eye, but sensed and known to be present]:
12 So man [humanity without the LORD] lieth down, and rises not: till the heavens [the old and corrupt understanding] be no more, [until then] they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
13 O that you would hide me in the grave [here in sheol, the habitation of the dead where I Am hidden in the ignorance: the darkness of corrupt understanding], that you would keep me secret [cover in darkness as swaddling bands], until your wrath [this word uncovering wickedness] be past, that you would appoint me a [place all here at this] set time [choq – at this decreed end of wickedness], and remember me [zakar – and awaken us to remember You and our own identities]!
14 If a man die [to corruption], shall he live again [it is the choice of each person]? all the days of my appointed time [tsaba’ – when you muster Your army, the ONE BODY of Christ] will I wait, till my change [chaliyphah – of raiment, new body and an awakened mind that has “put on” incorruption and immortality] come. [This is the mystery and change Paul precisely describes in 1 Corinthians 15, when death is swallowed up in victory; when the mortal has put off corruption, and “put on” incorruption and immortality. See below – realize the moment, remember, and awaken]
15 You shall call [do you Here the Father calling you to assemble], and I will answer you: you will have a desire to the work of your hands [gathering us into His ONE BODY, to do His work].
16 For now you number my steps [declare all your ways]: do you not watch over [warn of the consequences of] my sin?
17 My transgression is sealed up in a bag [making me as a seed unsprouted], and you sew up [cause to stick] mine iniquity.
18 And surely the mountains falling [the high places you look to, in which you trust] comes to naught, and the rock [from where you receive the corrupt words to which you listen and obey] is removed out of his place.
19 The waters [this word of God] wear the stones [in which you trust]: you wash away the things which grow [corruption grown] out of the dust [the desolation and ruin] of the earth; and you destroy the hope [tiqvah] of man [the covenant the crown of pride, the ignorant leading you, made with death].
20 You prevail [in victory over death and opened the gates out of hell into life] forever against him, and he passes [halak – walks out of hell]: you change his countenance [paniym – understanding, he puts on incorruption and immortality], and send him away [into immortality].
21 His sons come to honor, and he knows it not [again forgetting their identity]; and they are [by their ignorance] brought low, but he perceives [biyn – understands] it not of them [when he is among them unaware].
22 But his flesh upon him shall have pain [until he again awakens], and his soul within him shall mourn [until he realizes this moment].
1 Corinthians 15
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first-fruits of them that slept.
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the first fruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
24 Then comes the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
25 For he must reign, till he has put all enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
27 For he has put all things under his feet. But when he says all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject [obedient] unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead? [Romans 6:3 Know you not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?”]
30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our LORD, I die daily [to the old man that is corrupt, not looking back, not drawing, turning, back into perishing: perdition].
32 If after the manner of men [was corrupted] I have fought with beasts [the animated flesh of men without the LORD’s Spirit] at Ephesus, what advantages it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die.
33 Be not deceived: evil communications [teaching words that have corrupted the world and destroyed the minds of all in it] corrupt good manners [“Now that which decayed and waxed old is ready to vanish away.”].
34 Awake [from this corruption] to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God [not understanding the mystery of godliness, which is the manifestation of His presence and power in the flesh to raise men from the dead]: I speak this to your shame.
35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
36 You fool, that which you sow is not quickened, except it dies [to corruption]:
37 And that which you sow, you sow not that body that shall be, but bare grain [from which comes new life], it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
38 But God gives it a body as it has pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men [in which comes the seed from where we are resurrected to life], another flesh of beasts [animated but without an immortal soul], another of fishes [animated but without an immortal soul], and another of birds[animated but without an immortal soul].
40 There are also celestial [epouranios – heaven: above from where flows knowledge: understanding: light that is life {epi oun ereo gnosis}] bodies, and bodies terrestrial [epigeios]: but the glory of the celestial [epouranios] one, and the glory of the terrestrial [epigeios] is another. [John 3:10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Are you a master of Israel, and know not these things {because what you know comes from the earth, and is earthly}? 11 Truly, truly, I say unto you, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and you receive not our witness. 12 If I have told you earthly {epigeios} things, and you believe not, how shall you believe, if I tell you of heavenly things {epouranios}? 13 And no man has ascended up to heaven {ouranos – into full understanding: which is life}, but he that came down from heaven {ouranos – received the understand that from there comes}, even the Son of man which is in heaven {ouranos – which is sent from there with full understanding: light that is life}. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness {exalting this voice above all others, so all who look to him will live: not be killed by the bites of the wicked mixed among them}, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believes in him should not perish {apollumi – be destroyed by the army of destroyers among us rotting the minds of any that listen and follow their evil advice}, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already {by choosing to continue following those destroying them}, because he has not believed in the name {the identity} of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light {understanding through the son} is come into the world, and men loved darkness {the ignorance leading them into destruction} rather than light {rather than choosing good: understanding, learning to choose the good and refuse the evil}, because their deeds were evil {misleading men into self-destruction}. 20 For everyone that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved {Isaiah 28:12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith you may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.}. 21 But he that does truth comes to the light {this understanding that is life sent from heaven}, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.]
41 There is one glory of the sun [manifesting the LORD’s presence in the church], and another glory of the moon [manifesting His presence in civil government], and another glory of the stars [manifesting His presence in His people]: for one star differs [in how the LORD manifests His presence] from another star in glory.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is [seed] sown in corruption [the earth]; it is raised [into understanding] in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonor [given no value among the corrupt to whom it is sent]; it is raised in glory [when they realize it is the LORD’s presence manifested to save all those who receive Him]: it is sown in weakness [without earthly power]; it is raised in power [when His word has done its work in those that are saved]:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body [the ONE BODY of Christ].
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit [bringing the natural to life from the sleep of death].
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth [ge – this planet], earthy [choikos – the ashes of its ruin; planted in corruption]; the second man is the LORD from heaven [ouranos – revealed when we receive His understanding].
48 As is the earthy [choikos – those planted in corruption], such are they also that are earthy [choikos – that remain buried in death: in corruption]: and as is the heavenly [epouranios – into who flows the word of God from heaven, receiving water and then light], such are they also that are heavenly [epouranios – who are raised to manifest the LORD’s presence, His glory in this good manner].
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy [sleeping in corruption], we shall also bear the image of the heavenly [epouranios].
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood [animated but without life] cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law [the written word as a shadow that now disappears in the light of matters manifested by the LORD’s presence revealed].
57 But thanks be to God, which gives us the victory through our LORD Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be you steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the LORD, forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the LORD.
Isaiah 28
14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, you scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem [into whom has flowed this understand: light and life].
15 Because you have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell [sheol] are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus says the LORD God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste [flee away in disappointment].
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line [making sure the foundation is trustworthy], and righteousness to the plummet [making undisputable the wall built upon it]: and the hail [this word that was reserved in heaven for this moment: this time of My righteous war] shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place [of falsehood].
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then you shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report [shmuw’ah – to understand this is the voice of Jehovah teaching us to choose the good and refuse the evil].
20 For the bed [in which the world sleeps] is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering [under which humanity thinks it hides from God, is] narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
Hebrews 12
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded [good leading they should obey], And if so much as a beast [men as animated flesh without the LORD’s Spirit] touch the mountain [trying to rise to reach Him in some other way], it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
22 But you are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly [epouranios] Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels [godly messengers],
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven [ouranos], and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling [the sacrifice that witnesses to life], that speaks better things than that [the blood] of Abel [that witnessed to his death].
25 See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven [ouranos]:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he has promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the [corrupted] earth only, but also [corrupted] heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those [corrupt] things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those [uncorrupt] things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace [receive His free gift of understanding and life], whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
Isaiah 2
2 And it shall come to pass in the last days [‘achariyth], that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
3 And many people shall go and say, Come you, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from [heavenly] Jerusalem.
4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 O house of Jacob, come you, and let us walk in the light [understanding] of the LORD.
Isaiah 46
3 Hearken [shama’ – be obedient] unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly [of the earth: its ruin: the hell men have created], which are carried from the womb [of this morning: that new day that has come]:
4 And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
5 To whom will you liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
6 They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he makes it a god [they put in My place and call by My name]: they fall down, yea, they worship.
7 They bear him upon the shoulder, [because they are dead idols] they carry him, and set him in his place, and he stands; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble [tsarah – tribulation].
8 Remember this, and show yourselves men [having understanding, and not as the beast without it]: bring it again to mind, O you transgressors.
9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,
10 Declaring the end [‘achariyth] from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east [the place of the rising sun], the man [I Am] that executes my counsel from a far country [merchaq ‘erets – the time I have decreed, when the wicked shall perish and the new earth shall begin]: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
12 Hearken unto me, you stouthearted, that are far from righteousness:
13 I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off [rachaq – shall not be as the evil decrees that never come], and my salvation shall not tarry [‘achar – shall not be for a later time]: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
Zechariah 9
11 As for you also, by the blood of your covenant I have sent forth your prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
12 Turn you to the strong hold, you prisoners of hope [tiqvah]: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto you;
13 When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece [against you who remain wallowing in the mire, the ruin of the earth you’ve destroyed], and made you as the sword of a mighty man.
14 And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning [sending His understanding]: and the LORD God shall blow the trumpet [calling His army to assemble], and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
15 The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devor, and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar.
16 And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.
Jeremiah 29
8 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to [shama’ – obey] your dreams [the creations of your own minds] which you cause to be dreamed.
9 For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, says the LORD.
10 For thus says the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon [ruled by confusion] I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place [heavenly Jerusalem]. [Hebrews 11:14 For they that say such things {confessing we are strangers in the corrupt earth and pilgrims journeying to this time and place} declare plainly that they seek a country. 15 And truly, if they {the faithful before us} had been mindful {an understanding} of that {heavenly} country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. 16 But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly {epouranios}: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he has prepared for them a city {we have now reached}. 40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.]
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected [tiqvah] end [‘ achariyth].
12 Then shall you call upon me, and you shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken [shama’ – hear that you understand, have faith, and will do as you ask] unto you. [Romans 10:9 That if you shall confess with your mouth the LORD Jesus, 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 righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture says [in Isaiah 28:16 above], Whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.]
13 And you shall [diligently] seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart. [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.]
14 And I will be found of you, says the LORD: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you [into My ONE BODY] from all the nations [from all the unbelievers who don’t know Me], and from all the places whither I have driven you, says the LORD; and I will bring you again into [understanding] the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive [beyond Damascus and Babylon, silence and confusion, into this time of mass insanity].
15 Because you have said, The LORD has raised us up prophets in Babylon;
Deuteronomy 18
18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto you, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken [shama’ – obey] unto my words which he shall speak in my name [manifesting My identity], I will require it of him.
20 But the prophet, which shall presume [zuwd] to speak a word [dabar] in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
21 And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?
22 When a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing [dabar – understanding the word or matter] follows not, nor come to pass, that is the thing [dabar] which the LORD has not spoken [dabar], but the prophet has spoken [dabar] it presumptuously [zadown]: you shall not be afraid of him.
Jeremiah 50
28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
29 Call together the archers against Babylon: all you that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she has done, do unto her: for she has been proud [zuwd – presumed thing] against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, says the LORD.
31 Behold, I am against you, O you most proud [zadown], says the LORD God of hosts: for your day is come, the time that I will visit you [paqad – come as the Chief Overseer of the earth].
32 And the most proud [zadown] shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.
33 Thus says the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast [by confusion]; they refused to let them go.
34 Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts [a man of war] is his name [identity]: he shall thoroughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
Psalms 101
1 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto you, O LORD, will I sing.
2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when will you come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside [to follow idols men have created and put in the LORD’s place]; it shall not cleave to [dabaq – stick; remain with] me.
4 A froward heart [a mind that twists and perverts truth] shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person [known liars telling known lies, false accusers falsely accusing – as policy by which they mislead]
5 Whoso privily slanders his neighbor, him will I cut off [tsamath – consume with the truth, fire, from My mouth]: him that has a high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land [‘erets – of the earth], that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that tells lies shall not tarry in my sight.
8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land [‘erets – of the earth]; that I may cut off [karath – end the covenant with death made by] all wicked doers from the city [New Heavenly Jerusalem] of the LORD.
Jeremiah 33
2 Thus says the LORD the maker thereof [all things, and the master teacher of them], the LORD that formed it, to establish [kuwn] it; the LORD is his name;
3 Call unto me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you know not.
12 Thus says the LORD of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
13 In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin [that are the children of my right hand], and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that tells [manah – reveals in His answer, as in verse 3 above, showing “you great and mighty things, which you know not”] them, says the LORD.
14 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.
15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land [‘erets – in the earth].
Numbers 23
5 And the LORD put a word in Balaam’s mouth, and said, Return unto Balak, and thus thou shalt speak.
6 And he returned unto him, and, lo, he stood by his burnt sacrifice, he, and all the princes of Moab.
7 And he [Balaam – with affinity to Bilhah] took up his parable [mishal – in which is hidden deep meaning only the LORD reveals], and said, Balak [devastator of God’s people] the king of Moab [whose mouths are the gates of hell] has brought me from Aram [who exalt their words above God’s], out of the mountains of the east [this place of the sun rising of this new day], saying, Come, curse me Jacob, and come, defy Israel.
8 How shall I curse, whom God has not cursed? or how shall I defy, whom the LORD has not defied?
9 For from the top [as the head] of the rocks [the ONE BODY of Christ] I see him, and from the hills [over God’s people] I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone [badab – separated from confusion], and shall not be reckoned [chashab – mixed] among the nations [gowy – those who don’t know the LORD].
10 Who can count [manah – tell us] the dust [‘apher – the ashes of the ruin of the earth, in which the false prophets mask themselves] of Jacob, and the number [micpar – tell the time] of the fourth part [this is referring to the generation, the one after Jacob, upon which “befall” these things, as He tells His children in Genesis 49:1 is in these last days: ‘achariyth] of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous [who will be resurrected in this time – as in Jeremiah 33:15 above], and let my last end [‘achariyth] be like his [the righteous now resurrected from death into life]!
Jeremiah 32
23 And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed [shama’] not your voice, neither walked in your law; they have done nothing of all that you commanded them to do: therefore you have caused all this evil to come upon them [qara’ – the sleep in death that has befallen them]:
Numbers 24
14 And now, behold [see], I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise [ya’ats – give the LORD’s good advice] thee what this people [of God] shall do to thy people [whose mouths are the gate holding them in death and hell] in the latter [‘achariyth] days [when understanding and their awakening have come].
15 And he took up his parable [mashal – deep meaning only the LORD reveals], and said, Balaam [who were not my people] the son of Beor [became a lamp lighting the way for My people] has said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
16 He has said, which heard the words of God [as Him speaking], and knew the knowledge [was from] of the Most High, [by] which [he then] saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance [subordinating my words to His], but having his eyes open:
17 I shall see him [again in my flesh], but not now [‘attah – not at this time]: I shall behold him, but not nigh [not in near in time]: there shall come a Star [the anointed one – I Am] out of Jacob [as a tender plant, from a root in a dry ground], and a Scepter [the right to rule] shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab [the mouths that are the gates of hell], and destroy all the children of Sheth [all the sons of Adam that refuse His dominion].
18 And Edom [the enemies mixed among us warring against us] shall be a possession, Seir [the devils in power misleading] also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly [and win the victory over death and hell].
19 Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remains of the [evil] city [and they shall proceed no further].
20 And when he looked on Amalek [the kings who have warred against God’s people in every generation], he took up his parable [mashal – speaking what only the LORD reveals], and said, Amalek was the first of the nations [beginning of the wars against God’s people]; but his latter end [‘achariyth] shall be that he perish forever.
Psalms 37
1 Fret not yourself because of evildoers, neither be you envious against the workers of iniquity.
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shall you dwell in the land, and truly you shall be fed.
4 Delight yourself also in the LORD: and he shall give you the desires [mish’alah] of your heart.
5 Commit your way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
6 And he shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgment as the noonday.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not yourself in any wise to do evil.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off [karath]: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, you shall diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
12 The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes upon him with his teeth.
13 The LORD shall laugh at him: for he sees that his day is coming.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
16 A little that a righteous man has is better than the riches of many wicked.
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholds the righteous.
18 The LORD knows the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be forever.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
21 The wicked borrows, and pays not again: but the righteous shows mercy, and gives.
22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off [karath].
23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delights in his way.
24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholds him with his hand.
25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
26 He is ever merciful, and lends; and his seed is blessed.
27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
28 For the LORD loves judgment, and forsakes not his saints; they are preserved forever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off [karath].
29 The righteous shall inherit the land [‘erets – the earth], and dwell therein forever.
30 The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of judgment.
31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
32 The wicked watch the righteous, and seeks to slay him.
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt you to inherit the land [‘erets – the earth]: when the wicked are cut off [karath], you shall see it.
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end [‘achariyth] of that man is peace.
38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end [‘achariyth] of the wicked shall be cut off [karath].
39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble [tsarah – tribulation].
40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
