23 – 28 January 2024
Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus says the LORD God; Howl you, Woe worth the day! For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.
The above speaks spiritually, the LORD in it speaking to us today, this day (time of light returned) when understanding is sent from the cloud: the place where it (understanding) was held, reserved there in separated element (ideas in a state without cohesion). As we understand, it left the earth (making it without form and void) and (nature abhorring a vacuum) it was replaced with confusion (lacking sentience, uncertain about everything, due to the destruction of truthful discourse, the failure to recognize and accept reality and separate it from opinion: delusions) now turned into mass insanity among the spiritually wicked, tyrants in power (globalists likened to Pharoah, and the earth, under their reign, likened to Egypt).
In the passage above, Ezekiel 30:2 & 3, the LORD begins a dissertation on this topic, therein saying these wicked men are destroyed by following their own false prophets, whose words and ways, void of truth, rejecting reality, cause them to melt away in the fires of the hell they’ve created on the earth.
Ezekiel 30
6 Thus says the LORD; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene [when they see this coming whirlwind, as the Red (sea) ready to overthrown them] shall they fall in it by the sword [this word from the mouth of the LORD, heard from His people], says the LORD God [‘Adonay Jehovih, the King of kings and LORD of lords].
7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate [under their reign], and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted [by their policy].
8 And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.
9 In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians [those covered in darkness: ignorance] afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it comes.
10 Thus says the LORD God; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon [the lies of their false prophets: the power, confusion, now ruling the world, of which the tyrants have lost control].
11 He and his [confused] people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords [their words of confusion] against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain [the dead: all minds deluded by the information they consume, like poisoned waters].
12 And I will make the rivers [flowing their waters] dry, and sell the land into the hand of the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I the LORD have spoken it.
The word rendered “rivers” above, speaking of words that effect the people into which they flow, is y’or, meaning “of Egyptian origin; a channel, e.g. a fosse, canal, shaft; specifically the Nile, as the one river of Egypt, including its collateral trenches; also the Tigris, as the main river of Assyria:–brook, flood, river, stream.”
The first six times the word appears are in Genesis 41, describing Pharoah’s dream, which he didn’t understand, which caused the butler, the doorkeeper whose release (setting the prisoner free) Joseph foretold, saying his head would be lifted (his mind raised, re-cognize), to remember him (Joseph) in prison.
The next time this river (y’or) is mentioned is in Exodus 1:22, as the evil decree came from Pharoah to cast all the children of God’s people into it, to kill them (to destroy their God-fearing minds). It’s then used in the following chapter speaking of Moses (“a goodly child”) put into the same river (y’or) in an “ark,” from the only other (two) times the word tebah (Noah’s “Ark”) is used, here speaking of it as what kept him separated from the waters that killed all others.
The following, ending in Isaiah 8, are excerpts from the post of 5 January 2024:
Genesis 6
8 But Noah found grace [correction into righteousness] in the eyes of the LORD.
9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just [tsiddiyq] man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked [in accord, as commanded] with God.
22 Thus did Noah [not just hearing but also doing, making the ark over these many years, as a fool {in the eyes of the world} for the LORD’s sake]; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
Genesis 7
1 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come you and all your house into the ark; for you have I seen righteous [tsiddiyq] before me [paniym – clothing you by My manifested presence] in this generation.
The word “ark” in Genesis is the word tebah, which is said to perhaps be of foreign derivation, meaning a box. It is a shortened form of the words tabuwn (tbuwnah or towbunah) meaning an intelligent argument, and tbuwcah, meaning “treading down, i.e. ruin.” These words describe what the LORD was building through Noah over many years, by which he (and seven others of God’s saved family) entered (the LORD’s presence) the place of sanctuary, by which they were saved from the flood that took all others away (as the LORD tells us in Matthew 24 above, now happens to many).
The only time tbuwcah appears, it tells of the “destruction” of Ahaziah, meaning those Jehovah has seized (taken away). This tbuwcah is said to “come” (from the word bow, the same used to tell of Noah and his family “entering” the ark) from God by Joram (Jehovah exalted – His word above all others in the minds of those He thereby saves).
Isaiah 8
13 Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.
14 And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
15 And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
16 Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.
17 And I will wait upon the LORD, that hides his face [presence] from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
18 Behold, I and the children whom the LORD has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwells in mount Zion.
19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits [the voices of the known dead, speaking the ways of death], and unto wizards [the “experts” of this corrupt world] that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? [Should they be looking] for the living to the dead?
20 [Or should they be looking] To the law and to the testimony [these treasures?]: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light [understanding] in them.
Hebrews 11
22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment [entellomai] concerning his bones.
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king’s commandment.
24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter;
25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
28 Through faith he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.
The word rendered “goodly” (towb – learned to choose “good” and refuse evil) in Exodus 2:2, is above in verse 23 rendered “proper,” from the twice used Greek word asteios, meaning “from astu (a city); urbane, i.e. (by implication [presumed from its use]) handsome.” The idea alluded to in this description is a city as where people are “not spread” (a stroo), as in those of like mind, friends joined (organized and arranged) in one place (people choosing good, into the LORD’s city, which we know is the ONE BODY of Christ in which God the Father dwells).
Acts 7
17 But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18 Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph.
19 The same dealt subtly with [katasophizomai – only used here, meaning to circumvent: the deception of devils: misleading, with fallen wisdom that destroys minds] our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out [from the city of God into darkness] their young children, to the end they might not live.
20 In which time Moses [drawn from the waters below, the rivers of Egypt] was born, and was exceeding fair [asteios – learned to refuse evil: refuse the subtle misleading, and choose good], and nourished up in his father’s house three months:
21 And when he was cast out, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians [learning their ways and ideas, and forgetting the LORD he learned of as a child], and was mighty in words and in deeds.
23 And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart [mind] to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
24 And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:
25 For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
26 And the next day he showed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, you are brethren; why do you wrong one to another?
27 But he that did his neighbor wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Will you kill me, as you did the Egyptian yesterday?
29 Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Midian, where he begat two sons.
30 And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sinai an angel of the LORD in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the LORD came unto him,
32 Saying, I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and dare not behold [his mind being shaken, he didn’t perceive it was the LORD’s presence working in him, correcting him back to the things he learned and forgot].
33 Then said the LORD to him, Put off your shoes from your feet: for the place where you stand is holy ground.
34 I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send you into Egypt.
35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush.
36 He brought them out, after that he had shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
37 This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the LORD your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall you hear.
38 This is he [the Rock who is Christ], that was in the church [ekklesia – through calling, those called out from among those misleading them] in the wilderness [desolation cause by following misleaders and their foreign ways] with the angel [the manifestation of God’s presence in His message] which spoke to him in the mount Sinai [against the thorns, the misleader among them in power, who only know the ways of Egypt], and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles [this same word from the mouth of the LORD] to give unto us [to be received and given]:
39 To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
40 Saying unto Aaron [those given this light, to give it as received], Make us gods [men as idols who put themselves in God’s place] to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as [in like manner] it is written in the book of the prophets [see Amos 5:26 & 27 below], O you house of Israel, have you offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?
43 Yea, you took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which you made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon [in Amos it is Damascus, when the work is silenced and the people become drunken in tears; here, when men become idols put in God’s place, after confusion {beyond Babylon} caused in Damascus becomes the now mass delusion that rules the world].
44 Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
45 Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus [Joshua – the perpetual son] into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
46 Who found favor before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47 But Solomon built him a house.
48 Howbeit the Most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands [His temple is His family, His ONE BODY, His city, New Heavenly Jerusalem, in which He dwells]; as says the prophet [in Isaiah 66:1 & 2],
49 Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will you build me? says the LORD: or what is the place of my rest?
50 Has not my hand made all these things?
51 You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart [your minds still covered in flesh] and ears, you do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do you.
52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which showed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom you have been now the betrayers and murderers:
53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels [God’s ordained ambassadors], and have not kept it.
The word above rendered “disposition” is the twice-used Greek word diatage, meaning “arrangement, i.e. institution,” speaking of the lively oracles: this rightly divided word from the mouth of the LORD alive in me.
Romans 13
1 Let every soul be subject [hupotasso – subordinate] unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained [tasso, meaning “to arrange in an orderly manner, i.e. assign or dispose (to a certain position or lot)”] of God.
2 Whosoever therefore resists [antitassomai] the power [God has arranged and instituted], resists [anthistemi – stand against] the ordinance [diatage] of God: and they that resist [anthistemi – stand against] shall receive to themselves damnation.
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Will you then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and you shall have praise of the same:
4 For he is the minister of God to you for good. But if you do that which is evil, be afraid; for he bears not the sword [this word of God against evil] in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that does evil.
5 Wherefore you must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for [the correction of the] conscience sake.
6 For for this cause pay you tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.
8 Owe no man any thing [be not influenced when you are given what is due you], but [owe] to love one another [to give as you’ve been given]: for he that loves another has fulfilled the law.
9 For this, You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not bear false witness, You shall not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
10 Love works no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law [the spirit therein, which is to produce sustainable peace and security, between men and nations].
11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of [death’s] sleep: for now is our salvation nearer [egguteron – only used here, from the word eggus, which we saw in the previous post, rendered “at hand”] than when we believed [now receiving what we hoped for, faithfully waiting for this expected end].
12 The night [time of ignorance] is far spent, the day [light, understanding, life] is at hand [eggizo]: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness [ignorance], and let us put on the armor of light [this full understanding that protects us from the works of devils].
13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day [this time when light has come]; not in rioting and drunkenness [with stupefied minds], not in chambering and wantonness [not sleeping until the bed is defiled], not in strife and envying.
14 But put you on the LORD Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
Amos 5
1 Hear you this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.
2 The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
3 For thus says the LORD God; The city that went out by a thousand shall leave a hundred, and that which went forth by a hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.
4 For thus says the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek you me, and you shall live:
5 But seek not Bethel [the house of God, where idols sit in His place preaching and teaching their own words and ways], nor enter into Gilgal [where the waters are always agitated and boiling], and pass not to Beersheba [the seven wells: the churches where the word of God is corrupted]: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to naught.
6 Seek the LORD, and you shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph [Ephraim, God’s people in this generation], and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel.
7 You who turn [changed] judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
8 Seek him that makes the seven stars and Orion [kciyl – giving light again to the foolish], and turns the shadow of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night [by revealing the ignorance of all humanity]: that calls for the waters of the sea [this word to be sent to them all, for they are all in need], and pour them out upon the face of [all humanity now present on] the earth: The LORD is his name:
9 That strengthens the spoiled [with His wisdom and understanding] against the strong [the tyrants in power], so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress [the strongholds of the wicked: deceptions that induce confusion and ignorance, which have now turned into the mass insanity of those hearing and obeying them].
10 They hate him that rebukes in the gate [between heaven and hell], and they abhor him that speaks uprightly.
11 Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor [those without power], and you take from him burdens of wheat: you have built houses of hewn stones [defiled by what you’ve chipped away], but you shall not dwell in them; you have planted pleasant vineyards, but you shall not drink wine of them.
12 For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe [I see you Brandon], and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.
13 Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time [not speaking your own words and ways, the corrupt elements {stoicheion} of the world they made without form and void, which melt way in the fires these same corrupt words and ways have caused]; for it is an evil time.
14 Seek good, and not evil, that you may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as you have spoken [when your mouths are opened speaking His word the world needs].
15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
16 Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the LORD, says thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman [the keepers of the earth, those who’ve diligently sought the LORD] to mourning, and such as are skillful of lamentation to wailing.
17 And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through you, says the LORD.
18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness [a time {of the heathen} when all are ignorant of Him], and not light.
19 As if a man did flee from a lion [those devouring them], and a bear met him [to others that devour them]; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall [trusted in the protection therein promised], and a serpent bit him [the venomous words there misled them into death].
20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
21 I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.
22 Though you offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
23 Take you away from me the noise of your songs [your corrupt words you repeat with those misleading you]; for I will not hear the melody of your viols.
24 But let [this] judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
25 Have you offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years [now wandering without understanding], O house of Israel?
26 But you have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch [your king] and Chiun [the pillars of your communities] your images, the star [the men saying they have light] of your god [false gods of darkness], which you made to yourselves [exalting them over you].
27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, says the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts [the commander of the army of light].
Isaiah 66
1 Thus says the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that you build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
2 For all those things has my hand made, and all those things have been, says the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembles at my word.
3 [In this time when all religion is corrupt] He that kills an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrifices a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offers an oblation, as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burns incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delight in their abominations.
4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear [shama’ – obey]: but they did evil before my eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
5 Hear [shama’ – obey] the word of the LORD, you that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 A voice of noise from the city [Heavenly New Jerusalem], a voice from the temple [My ONE BODY in which I dwell], a voice of the LORD that renders recompense [a deserved repayment] to his enemies.
7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
8 Who has heard [shama’ – and obeyed] such a thing? who has [thereby] seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day [when this light has come]? or shall a [new] nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? says the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? says your God.
10 Rejoice you with [New Heavenly] Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her:
11 That you may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that you may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
12 For thus says the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall you suck, you shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.
13 As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you; and you shall be comforted in [led into all truth, into New Heavenly] Jerusalem.
14 And when you see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies.
15 For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind [from where His voice is heard changing the face of the earth], to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire [in the word from His mouth heard from His people when their obedience is perfected].
16 For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.
17 They [now when all religion is corrupted] that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, says the LORD.
18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations [who haven’t known Me] and tongues [speaking corruption]; and they shall come, and [every eye shall] see my glory.
19 And I will set a sign [‘owth] among them, and I will send those that escape [paliyt – escape death and darkness, removing doubt] of them unto the nations [who haven’t know Me], to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off [rachowq – this time when the world is blinded, dumb, and ruled by evil decree], that have not heard [shama’ – or obeyed] my fame [shema’ – this report], [therefore they] neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare [My people in whose mind I have written this word] my glory among the Gentiles.
20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the LORD out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain [New Heavenly] Jerusalem, says the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD.
21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, says the LORD.
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, says the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, says the LORD.
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm [their animated dead flesh] shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
The word rendered “new,” twice in verse 22 above, speaking of heaven and earth, is the Hebrew word chadash. Its meaning comes from an (almost) identical ten-times used word, meaning “to be new; causatively, to rebuild:–renew, repair.”
In examining these words’ uses, we understand the first speaks of macro thought (popular prejudice – the foundational beliefs: the conscience of a society) changing (the allasso which all must undergo, as in wilderness after the exodus). The latter speaks more of how it’s repaired after corrupting over time.
Above, in verse 23, a similar word, chodesh is used twice, speaking of the others (chadash) occurring, rendered “from one new moon to another.” As we know, the moon represents civil government, which is here in its cycle from darkness into full light and back to darkness again.
It’s at this point of darkness, as in Genesis when the cycle began, when God caused (by speaking) light to come into being as He moved on the darkened waters (the darkened deep that was then present). The verse then says it’s from one sabbath to another, from the word shabbath twice, which we know is when the LORD visits (paqad and pquddah, as the Chief Overseer of the earth), to interrupt man’s work, to teach and correct us back onto course, here speaking of it in the most macro sense, to change the mind of the world away from (the sickness of) insanity to rational (normal), thereby creating heaven and earth new again.
The verse then says, speaking of after all flesh undergoes this change, when humanity’s collective good conscience is restored, all shall come “worship before Him,” from the words shachah paniym, meaning we, realizing we are in His presence, humble ourselves (subordinate our will to His, completing the change).
Exodus 20
1 And God spoke all these words, saying,
2 I am the LORD your God, which have brought you out of the land of Egypt [and now again out of the current darkness under tyrants], out of the house of bondage.
3 You shall have no other gods before me.
4 You shall not make unto you any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth [as its foundation, the words of men exalted above God’s].
5 You shall not bow down [shachah] yourself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting [paqad] the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain [saying I said when I haven’t]; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain [attributing to Him the worthless creations of men] .
8 Remember the sabbath [when I interrupt for correction] day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shall you labor, and do all your work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth [‘erets], the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 Honor your father and your mother: that your days may be long upon the land [‘adamah – as My people I’ve created] which the LORD your God gives you.
13 You shall not kill.
14 You shall not commit adultery.
15 You shall not steal.
16 You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 You shall not covet your neighbor’s house, you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is your neighbor’s.
18 And all the people saw the thundering [of this voice of the LORD], and the lightning [giving us this understanding], and the noise of the trumpet [His voice from Moses, calling all to hear him], and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off [‘amad rachowq – standing in this later day when the world is ruled by the evil decrees of wicked men, and the LORD is calling all to hear His words from my flesh].
19 And they said unto Moses, Speak you with us, and we will hear [shama’ – obey]: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces [paniym – in His presence], that you sin not.
21 And the people stood afar off [‘amad rachowq], and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness [‘araphel] where God was.
22 And the LORD said unto Moses [as He says to me here and now], Thus you shall say unto the children of Israel, You have seen that I have talked with you from heaven [from there giving you this understanding].
23 You shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall you make unto you gods of gold.
24 An altar of earth [‘adamah – My people I’ve created] you shall make unto me, and shall sacrifice thereon your burnt offerings, and your peace offerings, your sheep, and your oxen [the meat that strengthens, tried in the fires, which brings understanding]: in all places where I record my name [pressing it into the earth as MY seal] I will come unto you, and I will bless you.
25 And if you will make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stone [chipping away part of my spoken word to make it fit what you will to create]: for if you lift up your tool upon it, you have polluted [corrupted] it.
26 Neither shall you go up by steps [exalting yourself, rising upon hewn stones] unto my altar, that your nakedness [revealing your flesh that should be covered by the LORD’s righteousness] be not discovered thereon.
The word ‘araphel, the “thick darkness” where God is, is used in the passages below, as are the words chadash, telling us it is from there, by His voice, He creates us and brings us to life again.
Job 38
4 Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth [the last time as I have now again]? declare, if you have understanding.
5 Who has laid the measures thereof, if you know? or who has stretched the line upon it?
6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8 Or who shut up the sea [humanity] with doors, when it brake forth [with its own ways and ideas], as if it had issued out of the womb [thinking to create themselves into something they made in the own evil image]?
9 When I made the cloud [the earth without the understanding held their] the garment thereof, and thick darkness [‘araphel – their ignorance and confusion their ways create, when, unknown to them, I Am] a swaddling-band [protecting them from themselves] for it,
10 And [by their own doing] brake up for it my decreed [choq – this appointed time and] place, and set bars and doors [holding them in the hell they created],
11 And said, Hitherto shall you come, but no further: and here shall your proud waves be stayed [shiyth – made to end, at the beginning by my word established]?
12 Have you commanded the morning [this sun to rise upon all] since your days; and caused the dayspring [shachar – dawn] to know his place;
13 That it might take hold of the ends [ending the old age and beginning the new] of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
14 It is turned as clay to the seal [this is My signature pressed into the earth]; and they stand as a garment [the covering of My flesh Body].
15 And from the wicked their light [understanding] is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.
16 Have you entered into the springs of the sea? or have you walked in the search of the depth?
17 Have the gates of death [and hell] been opened unto you? or have you seen the doors of the shadow of death?
18 Have you perceived the breadth [start to finish] of the earth? declare if you know it all.
19 Where is the way where light dwelleth [it is with God alone]? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof [which is in the earth that’s rejected Him],
20 That you shouldest take it to the bound thereof [now, when every eye sees the result of following the wicked into debilitating and dysfunctional insanity], and that you should know the paths [followed] to the house thereof?
21 Know you it, because you were then born? or because the number of your days is great?
22 Have you entered into the treasures of the snow? or have you seen the treasures of the hail [the LORD’s understanding frozen in heaven, there reserved until it’s now sent, both as purity and against the current corrupt crop of the wicked in power],
23 Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and [My just] war?
24 By what way is the light parted [into these many colors, showing the sign that I have not come to destroy, as men have, but to save, rescue the willing, from their destruction], which scatters the east wind [My Almighty Spirit working to change the minds of man] upon the earth?
25 Who has divided a watercourse [revealing, in the experience, what man’s words and ways of ignorance produce] for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder [My voice heard as the sound of understanding from the cloud];
26 To cause it to rain [My word from heaven] on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no [living] man;
27 To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb [as on the third day] to spring forth?
28 Has the rain a father? or who has begotten the drops of dew?
29 Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who has gendered it [brought if forth in a known form from its progenitor]?
30 The waters are hid as with a stone [in me, hidden in my flesh, from where His voice flows], and the face of [paniym – manifesting the LORD’s presence, revealing] the deep [that] is frozen.
31 Can you bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
32 Can you bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or can you guide Arcturus with his sons? [now, when God’s people have become as many at the stars of heaven He’s awakened, as He promised]
33 Know you the ordinances [chuqqah – the limit ordained and appointed] of heaven? can you set the dominion thereof in [by unbreakable decree, ruling] the earth?
34 Can you lift up your voice to the clouds [where My understanding is held], that abundance of waters [My words] may cover you?
35 Can you send lightnings [understanding from there], that they may go and say unto you, Here we are [as they says in me, here I Am]?
36 Who has put [shiyth] wisdom in the inward parts? or who has given understanding to the heart?
Ezekiel 34
11 For thus says the LORD God; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.
12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day [‘araphel].
Zephaniah 1
14 The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hastes greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble [tsarah – tribulation] and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness [‘araphel],
16 A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers.
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD’s wrath; but the whole land [‘erets – the earth] shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land [‘erets – the earth] .
2 Samuel 22
7 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
8 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
9 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness [‘araphel] was under his feet.
11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
13 Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
14 The LORD thundered from heaven, and the Most High uttered his voice.
15 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
16 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
17 He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
18 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
Psalms 51
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew [chadash] a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from your presence; and take not your holy spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of your salvation; and uphold me with your free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors your ways; and sinners shall be converted unto you.
Psalms 103
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
3 Who forgives all your iniquities; who heals all your diseases;
4 Who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things; so that your youth is renewed [‘chadash] like the eagle’s [learning strength to rise into heaven].
6 The LORD executes righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
Psalms 104
27 These wait all upon you; that you mayest give them their meat [this understanding that strengthens] in due season.
28 That you give them they gather: you open your hand, they are filled with good.
29 You hide your face [paniym – presence], they are troubled: you takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.
30 You send forth your spirit, they are created: and you renew [chadash] the face of the earth [paniym ‘adamah – your presence with and in Your people].
31 The glory of the LORD shall endure forever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.
32 He looks on the earth, and it trembles: he touches the hills, and they smoke.
33 I will sing unto the LORD as long as [when] I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being [‘owd – when in the resurrection I remain after the flood].
Ezekiel 36
22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, thus says the LORD God; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for my holy name’s sake, which you have profaned among the heathen, whither you went.
23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which you have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, says the LORD God, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land [‘adamah].
25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new [chadash – changed] heart [mind] also will I give you, and a new [chadash – changed] spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my judgments, and do them.
28 And you shall dwell in the land [‘erets – the earth] that I gave to your fathers; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.
The word chadash first appears in Exodus 1:8, speaking of the change away from God and into the destruction of right minds taken into darkness and affliction.
Exodus 8
7 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.
8 Now there arose up a new [chadash] king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.
9 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we:
10 Come on, let us deal wisely with them [corrupting their minds]; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falls out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out [‘alah] of the land [and they be lifted out of oppression].
The above is preceded by the falling away, cryptically described by Jacob in Genesis 49, led by Rueben, the pattern of the son of perdition, unstable as water, who wouldn’t remain (excel) in these last days after this flood (a chapter explained in great detail in many other posts).
The pattern, the sequence of events, begins with God’s people following the head of house through whom God leads, the people prosper even if surrounded by the ungodly going their own way. Then enters those putting themselves in God’s place, and chipping away the stone, adding their erroneous interpretation to exalt themselves, and the people following, trusting in those sitting in these position, begin a fall away from (God and His truth) as if endlessly descending in a bottomless pit. Along this way (fall), in step the ungodly in our mist (beginning demagogues and ending tyrants), stirring the people who’ve followed them and, thereby, haven’t flourished. They (those following these would-be tyrants) then, envying our prosperity (Jeshurun, a nation waxed fat under God), (led into) accusing us of possessing what they (falsely) claim they have right to (as communists cover to steal what isn’t theirs, by force of law), (inspirited by covetousness) are stirred against us (as they again now have).
Deuteronomy 32
12 So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.
13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the Rock, and oil out of the flinty Rock [those through which God led them];
14 Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and you did drink the pure blood of the grape.
15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: you are waxen fat, you are grown thick, you are covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock [from which Gods word flows] of his salvation.
16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.
17 They sacrificed unto devils [misleaders who put themselves in God’s place] not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new [chadash] gods that came newly up [changing your minds into darkness], whom your fathers feared not.
18 Of the Rock that begat you you are unmindful, and have forgotten God that formed you.
19 And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be [‘achariyth – until these last days when the fall has had its full effect]: for they are a very froward generation [who have twisted and perverted truth and judgment: justice], children in whom is no faith.
As we know, the Rock spoken of above, is the one Daniel sees cut from the mountain without man’s hand, and coming against the darkness that now rules the world in these last days of darkness.
Daniel 2
27 Daniel answered [the LORD in him speaking, manifesting Himself] in the presence of the king, and said, The secret [of this end] which the king has demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, [none of which, stones cut and defiled by man’s hands, in this fully corrupt and confused world, know this time, or can] show [it] unto the king;
28 But there is a God in heaven that reveal secrets, and makes known to the king Nebuchadnezzar [the lies of all these false prophets and false wise men, that now rule the world they led into insanity] what shall be in the latter days [‘achariyth – the only time the Aramaic form of the word is used]. Your dream, and the visions [seeing but not comprehend it is the last days] of your head [ruling] upon your bed [sleeping in death with the dead], are these;
29 As for you, O king, your thoughts came into your mind upon your bed, what should come to pass hereafter [‘achar]: and he that reveals secrets makes known to you what shall come to pass.
30 But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living [I know nothing by my own mind], but for their sakes [the prisoners held in death‘s sleep by the endless babble of the ignorant in power, who the world listens to] that shall [the LORD in me, my Father who alone Knows This day – ask them they’ll tell they don’t know this is the day, and they then contradict themselves say it isn’t today, by which they prove they are the blind who are unable to see] make known the interpretation to the king [all these blind false speakers, not knowing today is the day of salvation, who exalt their words above this word from the Only One who does know], and that you might know the thoughts of your heart [are corrupt, without understanding].
31 You, O king, saw, and behold a great image. This great image [the kingdoms of the world], whose brightness was excellent, stood before you; and the form thereof was terrible.
32 This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,
33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay [defiling its foundation, and all standing upon it].
34 You saw till that a stone [I Am] was cut out without hands [of men, but sent by God, from His throne], which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the [worthless] chaff of the summer threshing-floors [to be blown away by the Spirit of the Almighty]; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them [ending the old and corrupt heaven and earth]: and the stone that smote the image [with the light that begin the new, wherein dwells righteousness] became a great mountain, and filled the whole [new] earth.
36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
37 You, O king, are a king of kings [the understanding, right interpretation of the law, that rules in the mind of all the power of this world]: for the God of heaven has given you a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
38 And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven has he given into your hand, and has made you ruler over them all. You are this head of gold.
39 And after you [as understanding degenerates when men put themselves in God’s place, changing law, times, and minds] shall arise another kingdom inferior to you, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things: and as iron that breaks all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
41 And whereas you saw the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as you saw the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken [tbar, an Aramaic word, only used here, corresponding to the Hebrew word shabar, meaning what breaks it, as in bringing the new birth].
43 And whereas you saw iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
45 Forasmuch as you saw that the stone [Christ] was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter [‘achar – this end]: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
For those who’ve reached the point, diligently searching with me, find here (in the uses of the word shabar) the LORD’s (in plain sight) hidden treasures: understanding what ends, breaks in pieces the powers of darkness.
Isaiah 66
7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
8 Who has heard [shama’ – and obeyed] such a thing? who has [thereby] seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day [when this light has come]? or shall a [new] nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
9 Shall I [‘aniy – Myself] bring to the birth [shabar], and not cause to bring forth [children of this Rock]? says the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? says your God.
Is anything too hard for the LORD God Almighty?
Genesis 18
14 Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed [mow’ed – the time, and times of Daniel 12:7, I will return unto you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
17 And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he has spoken of him.
Luke 19
37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
38 Saying, Blessed be the King that comes in the name of the LORD: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39 And some of the Pharisees [the religious hypocrites and all the modern self-called wise men, who’ve scattered the stones so none are joined to another, forbidding them to speaks with this ONE MIND, and rise in My ONE BODY] from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke your disciples.
40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones [of verse 44] would immediately cry out.
41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
42 Saying, If you had known, even you, at least in this your day, the things which belong unto your peace! but now they are hid from your eyes.
43 For the days shall come upon you, that your enemies shall cast a trench about you, and compass you round, and keep you in on every side,
44 And shall lay you even with the ground, and your children within you; and they shall not leave in you one stone upon another; because you [following the blind Pharisees] knew not the time of your visitation [episkope, the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew word paqad, meaning they know not this time when the LORD has come as the Chief Overseer of the earth, to end the darkness and give sight to the blind].
Psalms 102
12 But you, O LORD, shall endure for ever; and your remembrance unto all generations.
13 You shall arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favor her, yea, the set time [mow’ed], is come.
14 For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and favor the dust thereof.
15 So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth your glory.
16 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
19 For he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth;
20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;
21 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
22 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
Psalms 96
1 O sing unto the LORD a new [chadash] song [repeating these word, with One Mind show the change]: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; show forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.
4 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
6 Honor and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Give unto the LORD, O you kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
8 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.
9 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.
10 Say among the heathen that the LORD reign: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.
11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.
12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
13 Before the LORD: for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
Psalms 124
1 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
2 If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us:
3 Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us:
4 Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul:
5 Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
6 Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7 Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken [shabar], and we are escaped.
8 Our help is in the name of the LORD, who [once again] made heaven and earth.
