Reconciliation of the Dvar HaRitztzuy
Let this day be a day of reconciliation and regeneration

ב
There seems to be some confusion with my spelling of
Y’Ishra‘al, in the believe that al stands for Allah, if you
look at the word Y’Ishra’al ; The Y is the stick pictured
at the beginning and represents the House of Yosef and
the house of YahuwDah; The ISH is the name for man
who’s Covenant is with Ra ( God) who is Al ( aleph)
( I AM HE)

My Memorial for generation after generation.”
Shemot 3:13-16
This is MY NAME for ever,
Aluahiym of your father’s Abraham, Yitzchak [Isaac], and Ya’aqob
[Jacob], has sent me to you. This is my name forever, and this is my
memorial for generation to generation." and I appeared to Abraham, to
Yitzchak, and to Ya’aqob as hashadday [the almighty]. And my name,
was not well known (famous) to them.

is for you too!
Scripture speaks of a secret place where we can simply go, be alone, be
protected, pray,
and hear from
ב YâHuWsHúa.
Knowing there is such a place is a matter of faith. Going back time and
again, that's a matter of building a relationship. You need not have an
advanced degree in any subject, need not have memorized Scripture from
beginning to end, but instead
be aware the
Of Y’Ishra’al
Has a place for each Jew and Gentile who will open their minds and hearts
to Him.
Mt 6:5-8
When you pray, you shall not be as the role-fakers, for they love to stand
and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they
may be seen by men. Most certainly, I tell you, they have received their
reward. But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber, and having
shut your door, pray to your Father Who is in secret, and your Father
Who sees in secret shall reward you openly. In praying, don’t use vain
repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they shall be heard
for their much speaking. Therefore don’t be like them, don't you see that
your Father knows what things you need before you ask Him.
The truth in reality is visited in this secret place AND must be shared by
those who will live or else ... they will perish ... in darkness.
It is written
Lu 11:33
“No one, when he has lit a Lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but
on a stand, that those who come in may see the Light.
Tehillim. 119:105
Your Word is a Lamp to my feet, and a Light (aur) for my path.
The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body
is also full of Light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.
Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness. If
therefore your whole body is full of Light, having no part dark, it shall be
wholly full of Light, as when the Lamp with its bright shining gives you
Light.”
ב
With this in mind, heart soul and strength let us study together in the
Raukh
And now brothers and sisters
Come out of the secret place bearing light!
Who see it from afar? The Secret Place, here, shines a bit of light so
many can see from afar. The topics we have chosen are addressed to Jew
and Gentile together. We do this because that is what the Bible does.
This opens the window to make more sense of what Scripture tells us!
In the secret place is plain language, something simple to read. This is a
mere starting place for deeper consideration.

Dan_7:25
And it shall speak words opposing the Most High, and it will wear
down the pure ones of the Most High Ones, and it will try to change set
times (Festivals) and Law, (Lawlessness) and they shall be granted into its
hand for a time and times and half of a time.
And then I will profess to them,
‘Never did I acknowledge you: even if you are on My lap and do not do the
will of My Father Who is in heaven, out of My lap will I cast you away!
Depart from Me, all ye workers of Lawlessness!’
So that in them is fulfilled the prediction of Yshá`Yâhuw, which says:
“You shall surely hear, but you shall not understand; and you shall surely
see, but you shall not perceive! For the heart of this people has grown
thick, and they do hardly hear with the ears, and they have shut their
eyes, lest they should see with their eyes, and with their ears they should
hear, and their heart should understand, and they should return to Me
and I should cure them.
The Hebrew Bible is fully aware of that. Deuteronomy declares the
worship of sun, moon,
and stars as allotted by
that is to all the other peoples
Dev 4:19.
And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto Shomayim, and when thou seest the
Shemesh, and the yarei'ach, and the kokhavim, even all the tz’va
HaShomayim, shouldest be driven to hishtachaveh (bow down, worship)
them, and serve them which Hashem Aloheicha hath divided unto kol
HaGoyim under kol HaShomayim.
Duet 4:19
"or lest you lift up your eyes to the heavens and see the sun, the moon,
the stars, and all the armies of heaven, you should be impelled to bow
down to them or enslave yourselves to these [things] that
has apportioned to all the nations under the whole heaven;
Anyone can see the heavenly bodies, but we have heard from
There is no “hard copy” of Him! People want something they can identify
with, which is what makes the “god-man” concept so attractive, because it
makes them think they can be gods too. We can only understand what
Allows us to know about Himself, and we cannot control what we cannot
comprehend. Apportioned: divided, assigned, distributed; Aramaic,
"designated to serve". I.e., He gave them to all the nations and they are
common (contrast v. 20).
But none of them is to be identified specifically with
Dev 4:20
But Hashem hath taken you, and brought you forth
Out of the iron furnace, even out of Mitzrayim, to be unto Him an Am
Nachalah (a people of inheritance), as ye are yom hazeh.
"But
has selected you, and brought you out from the crucible of iron--from Egypt--to become His own--for the purpose of being a people [that are His own] prized
possession, just as [is the case] today."
Any wood placed into a furnace for smelting iron would be consumed
immediately. Egypt completely used them up, while feeding them—like
pack animals. Even the products forged of iron there—chariots—were
used to kill them. Now they were going to a place that would serve them
rather than consuming them. Nothing in the Tabernacle was made of iron;
Had no use for it at this point. Prized possession: How awesome! Why
throw away such a rare privilege and settle for something that the
nations all stoop to--nations that He considered a mere drop in the
bucket in comparison
Yeshayah40:15?
Surely the Goyim are like a drop in a bucket, and are accounted as dust of
the scales; surely He taketh up the iyim (islands) like fine dust.
Isa 40:15
See, nations are as a drop in a bucket, and are reckoned as dust on the
balance. See, He lifts up isles as fine dust.

those who claim to WORSHIP
How many more times will Y’Ishra’al turned to
HIS CREATION and not their CREATOR
Melachim Bais 23:5,
And he did away with hakemarim (the idol priests), whom the Melachim
of YahuwDah had ordained to burn ketoret in the high places in the towns
of YahuwDah, and in the places around Yerushalayim; them also that
Burned ketoret unto Ba'al, to the shemesh, and to the yarei'ach, and to
the mazalot (constellations) and to all the Tzeva HaShomayim.
2 kgs 23:5
And he put down the black-robed priests whom the sovereigns of
YahuwDah had appointed to burn incense on the high places in the cities
of YahuwDah and in the places all around Yerushalayim, and those who
burned incense to Baʽal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the
constellations, and to all the host of the heavens
Melachim Bais 23:11
And he took away the susim that the Melachim of YahuwDah had
dedicated to the shemesh, at the entrance of the Beis Hashem, by the
chamber of Natan-Melech the saris, which was in the colonnades, and set
eish to merkevot
Hashemesh.
2 Ki 23:11
And he did away with the horses that the sovereigns of YahuwDah had
given to the sun, at the entrance to the House of
By the room of Nathan-Melek ̱ the eunuch, that were in the court. And
he burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
Yirmeyah 8:2
And they shall spread them out before the shemesh, and the yarei'ach,
and all the tz'va haShomayim, whom they have loved, and whom they have
served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have consulted,
and whom they have worshiped; they shall not be gathered up, nor be
buried in a kever; they shall be like domen upon the surface of ha'Âthâ´m
ah.
Yirmeyah 8:2 ;( modern version)
And shall spread them before the sun and the moon and all the host of
the heavens, which they have loved and which they have served and after
which they have walked, which they have sought, and to which they have
bowed themselves. They shall not be gathered nor buried; they shall be
for dung on the face of the earth.
And He brought me into the khatzer Beis Hashem hapenimit [i.e., the
Court of the Kohanim], and, hinnei, at the petach (entrance) of the
Heikhal Hashem, between the Ulam and the Mizbe'ach, were about five
and twenty ish, with their backs toward the Heikhal Hashem, and their
faces toward the east; and they bowing down toward the east worshiping
the sun.
Ezek 8:16
And He brought me into the inner court of the
House of
And there, at the door of the
Hĕk ̱al of
Between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their
backs toward the
Hĕk ̱al of
And their faces toward the east, and they were bowing themselves
eastward to the sun.
Yet in the creation story these celestial elements are simply taken as
creatures like any others
Any word Highlighted is a point to ponder the treasure hidden in
scripture
From the Dead Sea Scrolls
Part 1
From the Dead Sea Scrolls:
So listen, all you who recognize righteousness, and consider the deeds of
Äluahiym. When He has a dispute with any mortal, and passes judgment
on all who spurn Him.
For when Y’Ishra’al abandoned Him by being faithless, He turned away
from Y’Ishra’al and from His tabernacle and gave them up to the sword.
But when He called to mind the Covenant which He made with their
forbears, He left a remnant for Y’Ishra’al
and did not allow them to be exterminated. In the era of wrath, three
hundred and ninety years at the time He handed them over to the power
of Nebuchadnetstsar, sovereign of Babel, He took care of them and
Behold, the Days come, says YHWH, that I shall cut a
new (renewed) covenant with the House of Y’Ishra’al, and
with the House of YahuwDah: not like the covenant that I
cut with their fathers in the day that I took them by the
hand to bring them out of the land of Mitsrayim; which My
covenant they broke/nullified [changed], although I was a
Husband to them, says YHWH. But this is the covenant
that I shall cut with the House of Y’Ishra’al after those
days, says YHWH: I shall put My instructions in their
inward parts, and in their heart shall I write it; and I
shall be their Aluahiym, and they shall be My people: and
they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and
every man his brother, saying, Know YHWH; for they shall
all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of
them, says YHWH: for I shall pardon their crookedness,
and their sins shall I remember no more. (I, even I AM
HE Who blots out your transgression for My Own sake and
remembers your sins no more.)
caused to grow from Y’Ishra’al and from Aharon a root of planting to
inherit His land and to grow fat on the good produce of His soil. Then
considered their iniquity and they knew that they were guilty men, and
they had been like the blind and like those groping for the way twenty
years. But Äluahiym considered their deeds, that they had sought Him
with a whole heart.
So He raised up for them a Teacher of Righteousness to guide them in
the way of His heart.
The ORDERS of YHWH are straight, REJOICING the HEART
The COMMAND of YHWH is clear, ENLIGHTENING the EYES;
It shall happen in That Day [The Day of YHWH] that the
nations shall seek the Root of Y’Ishay, Who stands as a
Ensign (nec/pole) [the Anointed] of the peoples; to Him shall
the heathen masses rally, and His rest-haven shall be
Splendid It shall happen in That Day that the Master shall
set His Hand again the second time [Yom Kippur] to recover
the remnant that is left of His people from Ashshuwr
(Successful One), from Mitsrayim, from Pathrows, from
Kuwsh, from Eylam, from Shin'ar, from Chamath, and from
the islands of the sea (Kittim). He shall set up a Banner
[Anointed] for the nations, and shall gather the outcasts of
Y’Ishra’al, and gather together the dispersed of YahuwDah
from the four corners of the earth. (His chosen ones)
He taught to later generations what Äluahiym did to the generation
deserving wrath, a company of traitors. They are the ones who depart
from the proper way.
That is the time of which it is written;
“Like a rebellious cow, so rebelled Y’Ishra’al”
(Hosea/ Huwshua 4)
Huwshua' prophesied around the ninth century B.C., after the division of
the Kingdom into Y’Ishra’al and YahuwDah. His own life story, as
recounted here, is an allegory about the Northern Kingdom, often known
as Ephrayim for short, because its first king (Yarab’am, but not the same
one mentioned in 1:1), who led the secession from Yahuwdah, was from
that tribe. In actuality, it was Yahuwdah that seceded, because the other
tribes all gave Rehab’am (son of Shlomo) an opening to improve upon his
father’s treatment of their laborers, but he refused. Yahuwah said the
kingdom was being torn from him; only Dawyid throne remained to him,
along with one additional tribe. He has the same name as that of the son
of Nun - the right hand man of Moshah. His name most likely was
pronounce as Huwshua:
Huwshua 4:1.
Listen to the word of YHWH, [you] descendants of Y’Ishra’al! Because
YHWH has a case against the inhabitants of the Land, because there is
no trustworthiness, no kindness, and no knowledge of Äluahiym in the
Land.
Trustworthiness: truth, stability, certainty, building up, faithfulness,
what lasts or stands up. Kindness: mercy or courtesy; i.e., treating each
other rightly, giving each his due. Knowledge: from an insider’s view,
intimately. These three are inseparable; we cannot say web know YHWH
if we are unfaithful to our brothers. (1 Yoch. 4:20) If any of these is
lacking, YHWH still has a case against us. We cannot be faithful to
YHWH if our main focus is faithfulness to anything else. (Mat. 6:24)
Y’Ishra’al will not come back together in our generation if we are still
loyal to conflicting causes. He is mercifully offering to “settle out of
court”, but we must sign the contract before He will dismiss the case; the
repair of these breaches in the wall is the form this repentance must
take.
Huwshua 4:2.
“Cursing and deceit, murder, robbery, and adultery have broken all
bounds, and blood has run up against blood.
Broken all bounds: mushroomed out of control, refused to be
restrained. The same term is used of sheep breaking out of a sheepfold in
Micha 2:13.
They are free (v. 16), but unprotected, and the neighborhood is not safe.
Huwshua 4:3.
“Because of this the Land will mourn, and all who dwell in it will languish
among the animals of the field and the birds of the sky, and even the fish
of the sea will be removed,
Huwshua 4:4.
“Until [one] man no longer argues with or judges [another] man, since
your people are like those who argue with a priest.
No longer argues or judges: Aramaic, They say, “The scribe shall not
teach, and the prophet shall not admonish”, so your people argue with
your teachers. They cannot teach, because the students all think they
know it all. Arguing with a priest: a presumptuous act, since the term
itself means an officiator, and they were also given the final say in
matters of interpretation of Torah. (Deut. 17:9-13)
Huwshua 4:5.
“So today you will stumble, and even the prophet will stumble with you at
night, and I will dumbfound your mother.
Prophet: Aramaic, false prophet. Yet for centuries even true prophets
were partially blind to who they were.
Huwshua 4:6.
“My people are rendered silent due to the lack of knowledge. Because you
have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you as My priest. You have also
forgotten your Äluahiym instruction; I Myself will also forget your
children.
Are rendered silent: Aramaic, have become stupid.
Huwshua 4:7.
“To the same extent as they increased [in wealth], they sinned against
Me; I will change their reputation into [one of] dishonor.
Huwshua 4:8.
“They feed on the sin of My people, and they sustain their passion for
perversity.
Aramaic; the priests have committed desecration by eating the sin-
offerings of My people, so as to add sins to their own guilt. They are
feeding the enemy’s power rather than strengthening YHWH’s influence
in Y’Ishra’al communal life. Contrast Danial’s prayer
(Dan. 10:12ff).
Huwshua 4:9.
“So it will be the same for the priest as for the people: I will both call
them to account for their ways, and bring recompense on them for their
practices.
The same: What affects one part of Y’Ishra’al affects the whole
nation.
Compare
Yirm. 45:5.
Aramaic: Just as they made the layman like the priest to desecrate My
Qodesh sacrifices, so I will profane their glory and make what is precious
contemptible.
Huwshua 4:10.
“When they eat they will not be full; when they commit adultery, they will
not break through, because they have quit giving heed to YHWH.
Break through: or increase, but having children is seldom the intent of
adultery. Rather, they will not fully enjoy their pleasure; it will not
satisfy them. Aramaic, they shall take wives and not beget children. Quit
giving heed: or loosened the guard.
Huwshua 4:11.
“Whoredom, wine, and freshly-pressed wine carry a heart away.
Huwshua 4:12.
“My people seek counsel at their tree, and their diviner’s wand will make
it known, because the Raukh (spirit) of whoredoms has made them
stagger, and they have [gone out] from beneath their Äluahiym [to]
commit adultery.
Seek counsel: yet it belongs to YHWH alone.
(Prov. 8:14)
It was idolatry that originally caused the split in Y’Ishra’al, but YHWH
used bad advice
as the last straw. Their tree: i.e., their wooden groves around idolatrous
worship-sites. Make it known: Aramaic, interpret for it (the tree or
wooden image). Out from beneath their Äluahiym: out from under His
protective wings; alt., have gone whoring after others in place of Him.
Huwshua 4:13.
“They slaughter [sacrifices] on the mountaintops, and burn incense on
the hills, under oak or white poplar or elm, because its shade is pleasant.
That is why your daughters will be [cult] prostitutes and your brides will
commit adultery.
Pleasant: Aram. Extensive. Adultery: or idolatry. Your daughters: the
Aramaic adds, whom you have from the daughters of the nations. Brides:
or daughters-in-law.
Huwshua 4:14.
“I will not bring punishment on your daughters because they [become]
cult prostitutes or on your brides when they commit adultery, because
[the men] themselves go off with prostitutes and slaughter sacrifices
with the dedicated [to pagan temples], and an undiscerning people will be
pushed aside.
Go off: literally, divide or separate. I.e., they have divided interests.
Undiscerning: or indiscreet, without understanding, which in Hebrew
means the ability to tell the difference or distinguish between, as
contrasted with wisdom, which is more the skill that comes from the
combination of knowledge and understanding. Pushed aside: or trampled,
the only alternative to gaining understanding. For a time, He released us,
not caring anymore, having removed the kindness of correction.
Prov. 3:12
We must be faithful stewards of what is another’s if we want to recover
our Land, our place in YHWH’s covenant, and have Him stop ignoring our
children, this is the prerequisite.
Huwshua 4:15.
“Though you are acting as a prostitute, O Y’Ishra’al, you must not cause
YahuwDah to become guilty, and do not come to the Gilgal or go up to
Beyth Aven or swear, ‘[As] YHWH lives’,
The Gilgal: Literally, place of rolling, a dwelling place of prophets in
northern Y’Ishra’al about four miles (7 km.) from Shiloh and Beth ’al.
(Strong) Beyth Aven: House of vanity, a town east of Beth ‘al. Note the
contrast between Y’Ishra’al and YahuwDah.
Huwshua 4:16.
“Because Y’Ishra’al is as stubborn as a headstrong heifer. [So] now
YHWH will pasture them like a lamb in a roomy place.
A headstrong heifer:
Compare
Deut. 32:15.
But Yeshûrûn grew fat, and kicked. You have grown fat. You have grown
thick. You have become sleek. Then he forsook Aluah (first use in
Scripture - unless Iyob came first) Who made him, and lightly esteemed
the Rock of his deliverance.
Huwshua 4:17
. “Efrayim is allied with [tortuously-shaped] idols; let him lie [there].
Allied with idols: Aramaic, addicted to idolatry.
Huwshua 4:18.
“What they imbibe has turned [sour]; they have forced [people] into
prostitution [so they can] commit fornication; her defenders have an
appetite for dishonor. Allow [it to happen].
Huwshua 4:19.
“The wind has pressed hard against her with her wings, and they will be
ashamed because of their [sacrificial] slaughters.
Wind: or Raukh (spirit). Aramaic, the deeds of their lords are not right,
just as it is impossible to gather wind in the fold of a garment.
When the Man of Mockery appeared, who sprayed on Y’Ishra’al lying
waters he led to wander in the trackless wasteland. He brought down the
lofty heights of old, turned aside from the paths of righteousness, and
shifted the boundary marks that the forefathers had set up to mark
their inheritance, so that the curses of His Covenant took hold on
them. Because of this they were handed over to the sword that avenges
the breach of His Covenant.
For they had sought flattery, choosing travesties over true faith; they
looked for gaps in the Torot; they favored the fine neck. They called the
guilty innocent; and the innocent guilty. They overstepped covenant,
violated the Torah; and they conspired together to kill the innocent, for
all those who lived pure lives they loathed from the bottom of their
heart. So they persecuted them violently, and were happy to see people
quarrel. Because of all this Äluahiym became very angry with their
company. He annihilated the lot of them, because all their deeds were
uncleanness to Him.
So now listen to me, all members of the Covenant, so I can make plain to
you the ways of the wicked (so you can leave the paths of sin). Äluahiym,
who loves true knowledge, has positioned Wisdom and Cleverness in front
of Him. Cunning and True Knowledge wait on Him. He is very patient and
forgiving, covering the sin of those who repent of wrongdoing. But
strength, Might, and great Wrath in the flames of fire with all the
melachim of destruction shall come against all who rebel against the
proper way and who despise the Torah, until they are with remnant or
survivor, for Äluahiym had not chosen them from ancient
eternity. Before they were created, He knew what they would do. So He
rejected the generations of old and turned away from the land until they
were gone.
He knows the times of appearance and the number and exact times of
everything that has ever existed and ever will exist before it happens in
the proper time, for all the years of eternity. And in all those times, He
has arranged that there should be for Himself people called by name, so
that there would always be survivors on the earth, replenishing the
surface of the earth with their descendants. He taught them through
those anointed by the Qodesh Raukh, seers of truth. He explicitly called
them by name. But whoever He had rejected He caused to stray.
So now, my children, listen to me that I may uncover your eyes to see and
to understand the deeds of Äluahiym, choosing what pleases Him
and hating what He rejects living perfectly in all His ways, not turning
away through thoughts caused by the sinful urge and lecherous eyes.
For many have gone astray by such thoughts, even strong and doughty
men of old faltered through them, and still do.
When they went about in their willful heart, the Guardian Melachim of
Heaven fell and were ensnared by it, for they did not observe the
Commandments of Äluahiym. Their sons, who were as tall as cedars, and
whose bodies were as big as mountains, fell by it.
Everything mortal on dry land expired and became as if they had never
existed, because they did their own will, and did not keep the
commandments of their Maker, until finally His anger was roused against
them.
Abraham did not live by it and was considered Äluahiym friend, because
he observed the Commandments of Äluahiym and he did not choose to
follow the will of his own Raukh (spirit), and he passed them on to Yitzhaq
and Ya’aqob and they too observed them. They too were recorded as
friends of Äluahiym and eternal partners in the Covenant.
But the sons of Ya’aqob went astray by them and were punished for their
errors. In Mitsrayim their descendants lived by their willful heart, to
obstinate to consult the Commandments of Äluahiym, each one doing what
was right in their own eyes. They even ate blood; and the men were
exterminated in the wilderness. <Äluahiym commanded> them at Qadesh;
“go up and possess the land, but they chose to follow the will of their
Raukh (spirit) and they did not listen to their Maker’s voice or the
commandments of their teacher; instead they grumbled in their
tents. So Äluahiym became angry with their company.
Their sons perished because of it. their sovereigns were exterminated
because of it, and because of it the members of the forefathers’
covenant committed sin, and so were handed over to the sword because
they abandoned the Covenant of Äluahiym, and chose of their own will,
and followed their own willful heart, each man doing his own will.
But when those of them were left held firm to the Commandments of
Äluahiym He instituted His Covenant with Y’Ishra’al forever,
The New Covenant
`Ivríym 8:8-13
For finding fault, He says to them:
“Look! Days are coming,”
declares YHWH, “when I will cut a new covenant with the house of
Y’Ishra’al and with the house of Yâhuwthâ´h: Not like the covenant that I
made with their forefathers on a day I took them by their hand to lead
them out from the Land of Mitsráyim because they, they broke My
covenant, so I, I loathed them,” declares YHWH: “For this is the
covenant that I will cut with the house of Y’Ishra’al after those days –”
Declares YHWH,
“I shall put My Law in their center, and on their hearts I shall write it,
and I shall be to them for mighty Ones, and they, they shall be to Me as a
people: And each will not still teach his neighbor or his brother, saying:
‘Acknowledge YHWH!’
Because all of them, from their least even unto their greatest shall
acknowledge Me;”
Declares YHWH,
Thus shall I pardon their wickedness, and I shall not remember their sin
anymore.” By Him saying“…new…” He has made the former one “old”.
Now that one, which grows old and aged, is near disappearing. Revealing to
them things hidden, in which all Y’Ishra’al had gone wrong; His Qodesh
Shabaths, His Qodesh Moedim, His righteous torot, His reliable ways.
The desires of His will, which man should carry out and so have Life in
them, He opened up to them. So they “dug the well”, yielding much
water. Those who reject this water He will not allow to live.
And although they had wallowed in the sin of humanity and in impure ways
and said; “Surely this is our business.” Äluahiym in His mysterious ways
atoned for their iniquity and forgave their transgression.
So He built for them a faithful house in Y’Ishra’al,
like none that had ever appeared before;
and even at this day, those who hold firm to it shall receive everlasting
Life,
and all human honor is rightly theirs, as Äluahiym promised them by
Ychezqa’l the prophet, saying; “The priests and the Lewites and the sons
of Tzadoq who have kept the courses of My Tabernacle when the children
of Y’Ishra’al strayed from Me, they shall bring Me fat and blood”
They are the repentant of Y’Ishra’al, who go out of the land of
YahuwDah and the Lewites are those accompanying them; “and the sons of
Tzadoq”: they are the chosen of Y’Ishra’al, the ones called by name, who
are to appear in the last days.
This is the precise account of their names by their generations, and the
time they appeared, the number of their troubles and the years of their
sojourn and the precise account of their deeds.
Whom Äluahiym atoned for, and they acquitted the innocent and
condemned the guilty, as well as all who come after them who act
according to the interpretation of the Torah by which the forefathers
were taught, until the age is over, that is, the present time. Like the
Covenant Äluahiym made with the forefathers to atone for their sin, so
shall Äluahiym atone for them. When the total years of this present age
are complete, there will be no further need to be connected to the house
of YahuwDah, but instead each will stand on his own tower;
“the wall is built, the boundary removed”
Mikha
Introduction:
Dating from 742 B.C.E., just 20 years prior to the Northern Kingdom’s
final deportation, Mikha prophesies from the Southern Kingdom of
Yehudah in the face of the North’s impending dispersion. Short for
Mikhayah (1 Kings 22; 2 Chron. 18), his name means
“Who is like YHWH?”
Though undoubtedly considered a fool in his own days, his words were
remembered after his death (Yirmeyahu 26:18), and the fact that some
of them had already proven true and that they agreed with what
Yirmeyahu was saying is what saved Yirmeyahu’s life and earned him
better treatment from the wise rulers of his day.
(Josephus, Antiquities, 10:6:2)
He addresses the corruption, injustice, and most of all, the
unfaithfulness to YHWH that lay behind it all.
Mikha 7:1.
Alas for me! Because I am like the collection of summer-fruits and like
the gleanings of the [gathered-in] vintage; there is not a cluster to eat.
My soul craves the first-ripe figs!
The first-ripe fruit is only to be eaten by the priests. (Shemot. 23:19;
34:26) They are not being brought, so YHWH is “hungry”. He is having to
eat the leftovers that the birds have already picked over, when He is due
the first and best. The word for “firstfruits” also means “firstborn”, and
because of the people’s attitude, there will no longer even be priests to
serve before YHWH in the Northern Kingdom’s stead for many centuries.
But we still do the same thing today any time we do not give YHWH His
due. Do we give Him only the leftovers of our time, energy, skills, and
resources—after we have finished pleasing ourselves and others around
us—if there is anything left?
Mikha 7:2.
The pious [man] has vanished from the Land, and the upright among men
are no [longer there]. They all lie in wait to shed blood; each one hunts his
own brother with a net!
Mikha 7:3.
Both hands are upon the evil, to do it well. The prince and the judge
[both] ask for compensation. The great [man] threatens mischief; it is his
desire, and they weave it together!
Both hands: symbolic of using even our better inclinations for evil
purposes—such as those who claim to be collecting assistance for the
needy, but use a large percentage of the income to enrich themselves.
Mikha 7:4.
The best of them is like a brier—more upright than a thorn-hedge! The
day of those who keep watch for you: your visiting-for-punishment is
coming; now their confusion will come about!
Mikha 7:5.
Don’t trust [your] fellow, and don’t put confidence in an intimate friend;
guard the opening of your mouth from her who lies down in your bosom,
Mikha 7:6.
Because the son treats the father with contempt; a daughter rises up
against a mother, a daughter-in-law against her husband’s mother. A man’s
enemies are the men of his own household!
YaHuWsHua warned that the same would hold true for His followers.
(Mat. 10:21-22)
Mikha 7:7.
But as for me, I will watch YHWH closely; I will wait expectantly for the
Äluahiym who will deliver me. My Äluahiym will hear me.
Mikha 7:8.
Don’t gloat over me, O my enemy, because [though] I have fallen, I will
get up [again]; even if I sit in darkness, YHWH is a light for me!
Mikha 7:9.
I will bear the wrath of YHWH, because I have sinned against Him, until
[the time] that He argues my case and carries out a just legal ruling for
me. He will bring me out into the light; I will see [how] He was righteous.
Mikha is confident in the fact that though YHWH cannot be blamed for
punishing Y’ishra’al, He has also promised that in the end His people will
come through the ordeal strong, mature, and righteous.
Mikha 7:10.
Then she who is hostile toward me will see and shame will overwhelm
her—the one who says to me, “Where is YHWH your Äluahiym?” My eyes
will gaze on her; now she will come to serve as something to be trampled
on like the mud of the streets.
She who is hostile: “Where is your Äluahiym?” is a question first asked
in so many words by haSatan (which means “the adversary”) in the garden.
Compare
Yeshayahu 14:16.
It is also Y’Ishra’al Gentile enemies who ask this tauntingly.
(e.g., Tehillim42; 79:10; 115:2)
Mikha 7:11.
The day your walls are to be built—[on] that day the decree will be sent
far [and wide]--
Mikha 7:12.
The [same] day he comes to you all the way from Ashur and the besieged
cities, and from the siege-entrenchment all the way to the river, and sea
from sea, and mountain of the mountain.
We are now seeing wall-builders being called from the places to which
Assyria exiled us to become set-apart in sheepfolds, shepherded with
YHWH’s unchanging standard, and to feed on the ancient ways. (v. 14) So
this decree has already gone for
Mikha 7:13.
And the Land will become desolate on account of its inhabitants, due to
the fruit of their practices.
Mikha 7:14.
Pasture Your people with the rod—the flock of Your inherited possession,
who dwell in isolation [in the] forest within Karmel. Let them graze [in]
Bashan and Gil’ad, as in days of antiquity!
We know we have proven to have very poor self-discipline, so the logical
response is to ask YHWH to correct us so that we can be pleasing to Him.
We tend to avoid this, but this is the only way we will get back to the way
things once were and are meant to be. Bashan and Gil’ad: the best
pastureland in Y’ishra’al.
Mikha 7:15.
“As [in] the days of your coming out from the land of Egypt, I will let him
see things beyond his power to comprehend!”
Mikha 7:16.
Gentiles will see and be put to shame from all their mighty deeds. They
will put their hand over their mouth; their ears will deafened.
Mikha 7:17.
They will lick up dust like a snake; like crawling things of the earth, they
will be shaken from their closed-in places. They will [turn their]
reverence toward YHWH; our Äluahiym, they will stand in awe because of
You.
Mikha 7:18
. Who is a mighty one like You, forgiving crookedness and passing over the
transgression of the remnant of His inherited possession? He will not
hold onto His anger forever, because He is inclined to prefer mercy.
Mikha 7:19.
He will come back [to] show us compassion; he will bring our perversions
into subservience, and you will throw all their sins into the depths of the
sea.
Mikha 7:20.
You will bestow faithfulness on Ya’aqóv, You will bestow faithfulness on
Ya’aqóv, mercy to Avraham, which You swore to our ancestors since
ancient times.
But in this present age Belial is unrestrained in Y’Ishra’al, just as
Äluahiym said by Yeshayahu the prophet, the son of Amots, saying;
“Fear and pit and snare are upon thee, dweller in the land” (Yesh 24)
The true meaning of this verse concerns the three traps of Belial about
which Lewi son of Ya’aqob said that Belial would catch Y’Ishra’al in, so he
directed them toward three kinds of righteousness.
The first is fornication; the second is wealth; the third is defiling the
Tabernacle. Who escapes from one is caught in the next; and whoever
escapes from that is caught in the other.
The Shoddy-Wall-Builders who went after “Precept”; Precept is a Raver
of whom it says;
Mikha 2
“They shall surely rave”
Mikha 2:1.
Woe to those who devise mischief, and who commit wrongdoing [while] on
their beds! At the morning light they carry it out, because [they] have it
in the power of their hands.
I.e., they invent their schemes all night, and as soon as they can they go
out to do the evil they imagined.
Mikha 2:2.
They also desire fields, and take them by force, or houses, and take
them, so they exploit a strong man and his household—that is, a man along
with his inherited property.
Since this is addressed to the Northern Kingdom, this is probably a
specific allusion to Ahav and Yisabel (Jezebel), especially since Ahav
specifically lay on his bed (v.1 when he could not get his way in regard to
Naboth’s vineyard, which he coveted. (1 Kings 21:4)
Mikha 2:3.
So this is what YHWH says: “Watch me! I am devising a calamity against
this family from which you cannot remove your neck nor walk proudly,
because this is an evil time.
This family: that of the kingly line of Y’Ishra’al. Remove your neck: as
from a yoke.
Mikha 2:4.
In that day they will take up a proverbial saying about you, and wail with
a wailing wail: “We have been utterly ruined! He has started to exchange
my people’s assigned share [of property]. How He has begun taking it
away from me! He will redistribute our fields to the one enticing [us]
away!”
He: again, the king, but in conjunction with false religious leaders as
well. Exchange… assigned share: in direct contrast with Prov. 22:8, which
tells us not to remove the ancient land-markers that our ancestors set up
to delineate property boundaries and preclude unnecessary disputes.
Enticing: with the connotation of moving toward paganism. The same thing
is going on today as religious leaders who want to maintain access to our
wallets tell us we are nothing but Gentiles and therefore do not need to
obey “that nasty old Torah”. Telling us we can eat things YHWH never
intended us to, they gain access to the tithe on our estate all the sooner!
They remove our Semitic heritage from us and instead give us
responsibilities that YHWH never prescribed but which fits their
agendas. And other authorities use the media to get us to look out for
ourselves instead of for one another, so that they can control us more
easily.
Mikha 2:5.
So you will have no one among YHWH’s congregation [left] to cast lots for
a measured-off parcel [of land].
Mikha 2:6.
“Do not let it drop!” They will let it drop! He will not let it drop for these;
He will not take [the] insults back.
Drop: apparently an idiom for prophesying, i.e., letting words drip down
gently and pleasantly. (See v. 11.) So YHWH reverses the idiom and uses
it in a different sense, saying He will not let the matter drop (if they do
not repent). Today He is offering our heritage back to us, since the day
of His wrath on the Northern Kingdom is over. No one is forcibly
preventing us from doing so, though when enough of us stop supporting
the Christmas economy, reduce the Saturday work force dramatically,
etc., they will undoubtedly try to reclaim the things they once stole and
which we have rightfully taken back. We must begin to prepare now to
guard it when they try. YHWH was angry because these thieves who had
by now all but finished plundering the Northern Kingdom were now
knocking at the gates of Yerushalayim.
Mikha 2:7.
“Is it said, O House of Ya’aqóv, ‘YHWH’s Raukh (Spirit) is cut short, if
these are His doings’? Won’t My words be pleasing with the uprightness
of walking?
Mikha 2:8.
“And yesterday My people were aroused to hostility; you strip off a
magnificent robe from the front of an outer garment from those who
pass by trustingly—who are returning from battle!
Yahshua may have been alluding to this verse in Mattiyahu 5:40, since
His mission was to restore the Northern Kingdom (Mat. 15:24), which at
this point was robbing Yehudah of its heritage. This gives us insight into
YahuwDah’s resistance to YaHuWsHua. As we return to our heritage and
begin reclaiming things that only they have fought to preserve, they are
understandably threatened, and we must be careful not to leave the
Messiah behind as we show them that we are indeed no longer pagans, but
this heritage is rightfully ours as well—if we will use it properly this time.
Mikha 2:9.
“The women of My people you have driven away from the house of her
luxury; you have taken My splendor from their nursing babies forever!
Splendor: honor or adornment.
Mikha 2:10.
“Get up and go, because this is not the resting place, on account of the
defilement, it will bind you with a sickening cord.
Cord: i.e., it seems enticing, but will keep us tied down when YHWH’s
cloud is moving on. Of course in our day this applies to the church. Not
the resting place: Yerushalayim is the place where righteousness is at
home (Yirmeyahu 31:23; 2 Kefa 3:13); Rome is not, and it must not be
substituted for it.
Mikha 2:11.
“If only a man who walks [in] empty air and deceitfulness were telling a
lie [when he said], ‘I will drip [prophecies] for you for wine and
intoxicating liquor.’ But he will become one who lets this people drop!
Intoxicating: The Marxists were correct in many cases that religion is
the opiate of the masses. If kept delirious with exciting new winds of
doctrine, they will not think rationally about what YHWH really requires
(as found in the Torah that they steer us away from), and thus see
through the ruse of those who are taking advantage of them in order to
stay in power. The pursuit of personal security at any cost also leads us to
trade away many civil liberties for the promise of greater protection.
Mikha 2:12
. “I will certainly gather you in, Ya’aqóv—all of you. I will certainly collect
the remnant of YIshra’al; I will put them together [in unity] like sheep in
a fold. Like a flock in the middle of its pasture, they will be in an uproar
because of humanity.
The last sentence could read, figuratively, “Like an ordered rank in the
midst of its speaking, they will stir with great noise because of a man
(Heb., Adam).” And both translations apply, for after being gathered in
and around Sela (Petra, see Yeshayahu 16), which, like a sheepfold, has
only one narrow entrance and could hold a million people. The Hebrew
word for sheepfold is Botzrah, and there is actually a city and a region
not far north of Petra (east of the Yarden River) named Botzrah. Dani’al
11:41 tells us that this region will escape the control of the “Prince who is
to come” (the counterfeit Meshiakh), so it is only logical that this is the
place YHWH will gather and keep His people safe while He pours out His
indignation on the rest of the nations. (Yeshayahu 26:20)
Mikha 2:13.
The one who makes a breach has come up before them; they have broken
out and passed through the gate and have exited by it, and their King will
pass through in front of them, with YHWH at their head!”
The one who makes a breach: like a “sapper”, who in ancient battles would
undermine a city wall, often at the expense of his life, so the besieging
army could enter. Yahshua was alluding to this verse in the often-
mistranslated Matt. 11:12 when He said that since the days of Yochanan
the Immerser, forceful men had been exerting pressure on the Kingdom.
Yochanan indeed sacrificed his life to keep speaking the truth, and thus
provided an opening for Messiah to gather His sheep. Jewish Sabbath
liturgy(based on Ruth 4:12) also speaks of awaiting the “man who is the
descendant of Peretz” (based on the same root word as “the one who
makes a breach”). This is the King, Yahshua, for Peretz was David’s
ancestor. He is the Shepherd, not a hireling. (Yochanan 10) The precise
wording in Mat. 11:12 could read, “Since the days of Yochanan the
Immerser until now, the Kingdom of heaven is being breached, and the
strong one snatches away to claim it eagerly for himself”. While haSatan
has tried to do so (Yoch. 10:12), the rightful King also promises to snatch
us out (v. 10; 1 Thes. 4:17; compare Rev. 12:5) of the above-mentioned
systems that enslave His people for their own purposes. This snatching
will probably bring us to the gathering point described in v. 12, and from
there (Yeshayahu 63:1) He will lead us back to reclaim His rightful throne
in Yerushalayim. (Z’kharyah 14)
They are caught in two: fornication, by taking two wives in their lifetimes,
although the principle of creation is “male and female He made them”
(Ber 1), and those who went into the ark “went into the ark two by
two”. Concerning the Leader it is written “he shall not multiply wives to
himself”, but Dawiyd had not read the sealed Book of Torah in the Ark;
for it was not opened in Y’Ishra’al from the day of the death of Eleazar
and Yehoshua and the elders who worshipped the goddess Ashtoreth. It
lay buried and was not revealed until the appearance of Tzadoq.
Nevertheless the deeds of Dawiyd were all excellent, except the murder
of Uriyah and Äluahiym forgave him for that.
They also defile the Tabernacle, for they do not separate ‘Clean from the
Unclean’, according to the Torah, and lie with a woman during her
menstrual period. Furthermore they marry each man the daughter of his
brother and the daughter of his sister, although Mosheh said; “unto the
sister of your mother you shall not draw near; she is the flesh of your
mother”. But the torot of consanguinity is written for males and females
alike, so if the brother’s daughter uncovers the nakedness of the brother
of her father, she is the flesh of her father.
Also they have corrupted their Qodesh Raukh, and with blasphemous
language they have reviled the statutes of Äluahiym Covenant, saying;
“They are not well-founded. They continually speak abhorrent things
against them. “All of them are kindlers and lighters of brands”; the webs
of a spider are their webs and the eggs of a viper are their
eggs”. Whoever touches them shall not be clean. The more he does, the
more he is guilty, unless he is forced.
For in times past, Äluahiym punished their deeds and His wrath burned
against their misdeeds, for “they are a people without insight”; they are a
people wandering in in counsel, for there is no insight in them”. For in
times past Mosheh and Aharon stood in the power of the Prince of Lights
and Belial raised up Yannes and his brother in his cunning when seeking to
do evil to Y’Ishra’al the first time.
In the time of the destruction of the land the Boundary Shifters
appeared and led Y’Ishra’al astray and the land was devastated, for they
has spoken rebellion against the Commandments of Äluahiym through
Mosheh and also through the anointed of the Raukh (spirit); and they
prophesied falsehood to turn Y’Ishra’al from following Äluahiym. But
Äluahiym called to mind the Covenant of the forefathers; and He raised
up from Aharon insightful men and from Y’Ishra’al wise men and He
taught them and they dug the well:
“The well the princes dug, the nobility of the people dug it with a rod”.
Interpretation:
The Well is the Torah, and its ‘diggers’ are the repentant of Y’Ishra’al
who went out of the land of YahuwDah and dwelt in the land of Damascus;
because Äluahiym had called them all princes, for they sought Him and
their honor was not denied by a single mouth. And the “rod” is the
interpreter of the Torah of whom Yeshayahu said; “he brings out a tool
for his work”. The “nobility of the people” are those who come to; “dig
the well” by following statutes that the Rod made to live by during the
whole era of wickedness, and with these statutes they shall obtain
nothing until the appearance of one who teaches righteous in the Last
Days. .
None who have been brought into the Covenant shall enter into the
tabernacle to light up His altar in vain; they shall “lock the door”, for
Äluahiym said; “Would that one of you would lock My door so that you
should not light up My altar in vain”. They must be careful to act
according to the specifications of the Torah for the era of wickedness,
separating from corrupt people, avoiding filthy wicked lucre taken from
what is vowed or set apart to Äluahiym of found in the Heykal
funds. They must not rob “the poor of Äluahiym people, making widows’
wealth their booty and killing orphans”. They must distinguish between
defiled and pure, teaching the difference between the set apart and the
profane. They must keep the Shabbath day according to specification
and the Moedim and the fast days according to the commandments of the
members of the new covenant in the land of Damascus, offering the set-
apart things according to their specifications. Each one must love his
brother as himself, and support the poor, needy, and alien. They must
seek the welfare of his fellow, never betraying a family member
according to the ordinance. Each must reprove his fellow according to
the command, but must not bear a grudge day after day. They must
separate from all kinds of ritual impurity according to their ordinance,
not befouling each his Qodesh Raukh (spirit), just as Äluahiym has told
them so to do. In short, for all who conduct their lives by these torot, in
perfect Qodesh, according to all the instructions, Äluahiym Covenant
stands firm to give them life for thousands of generations.
The Moedim (Appointed Times"), “refers to as YHWH's feast days. These
include: Pesakh (Passover), Matzah (Unleavened Bread), Shavuot
(Pentecost), Shofar, Yom Kippur (atonement) and Succoth (Tabernacles).
And the last great day
Also given consideration in this section are the Shabbat (Sabbath) and
the Yoval Year (Jubilee Release). Knowledge of the mystical meaning of
these appointed times is critical to an understanding of events taking
place in the book of Revelation.
But if they live in camps according to the statute of the land and marry
women and beget children, then let them live in accordance with the
Torah, and by the ordinance of vows according to the statute of the
Torah, just as it says; “Between a man and his wife, and between a father
and his sons”.
But all those who reject the Commandments and the Statutes shall
perish. When Äluahiym judged the land, bringing the just deserts of the
wicked to them, that is when the oracle of the prophet Yeshayahu son of
Amots came true, which says; “Days are coming upon you and upon your
people and upon your father’s house that have never come before, since
the departure of Ephrayim from YahuwDah”, that is when the two houses
of Y’Ishra’al separated, Ephrayim departing from YahuwDah. All who
backslid were handed over to the sword, but all who held fast escaped to
the north, as it says;
“I will exile the tents of your sovereign and the foundation of your
images beyond the tents of Damascus”. The books of the Torah are the
tents of your sovereign, as it says; “I will rebuild the fallen tent of
Dawiyd”. The “sovereign” is the congregation and the “foundation of your
images” is the books of the prophets whose words Y’Ishra’al
despised. The star is the interpreter of the Torah who comes to
Damascus, as it is written;
“A star has left Ya’aqob, a staff has risen from Y’Ishra’al”.
The latter is the Leader of the whole nation; when he appears,
“he will shatter all the sons of Sheth”.
They escaped in the first period of Äluahiym judgment, but those who
hold back were handed over to the sword.
When the oracle of the prophet Z’kharyah comes true, “O sword, be lively
and smite my shepherd and the man loyal to Me; so says Äluahiym. If you
strike down the shepherd, the flock will scatter. Then I will turn my
Power against the little ones”. But those who give heed to Äluahiym are
“the poor of the flock”; they will escape in the time of punishment, but all
the rest will be handed over to the sword when the Meshiakh of Aharon
and of Y’Ishra’al comes, just as it happened during the time of the first
punishment, as Ychezqa’l said; “Make a mark on the foreheads of those
who moan and lament”, but the rest were given over to the sword that
makes retaliation for Covenant violations.
And such is the verdict on all members of the Covenant who do not hold
firm to these torot; they are condemned to destruction by Belial. That is
the day on which Äluahiym shall judge as He has said; “The princes of
YahuwDah were those like Boundary- Shifters on whom I shall pour out
wrath like water”.
Truly they were too sick to be healed; every kind of galling wound
adhered to them because they did not turn away from traitorous
practices; they relished the customs of fornication and wicked
lucre. Each of them were indifferent to their closest relatives but drew
near to indecency; they vaunted themselves in riches and in ill-gotten
gains; each of them did just what he pleased; each chose to follow his own
willful heart. They did not separate from the people and their sin, but
arrogantly threw off all restraint, adopting the customs of the wicked, of
whom Äluahiym had said;
“Their wine is venom of snakes, the cruel poison of vipers”.
Interpretation:
“The snakes” are the sovereigns of the gentiles, and “their wine” is their
‘traditions’ and “the poison of Vipers” is the chief of the sovereigns of
Greece, who comes to wreak vengeance on them. But the “Shoddy-Wall-
Builders” and “White-washers” understood none of these things, for one
who deals in mere wind, (Satan) a sewer of lies, had spewed on them, one
whose entire company Äluahiym anger had burned hot.
But as Mosheh said to Y’Ishra’al,
“It is not for your righteousness or the integrity of your heart that you
are going to dispossess these nations, but because He loved your
ancestors and because He has kept His promise”. Such is the verdict on
the repentant of Y’Ishra’al, those who turn away from the usages of the
common people. Because Äluahiym loved the forefathers who bore
witness to the people following Him, so too He loves those who follow
them, for to such truly belongs the Covenant of the fathers. But against
His enemies, the Shoddy-Wall-Builders, His anger burns. But He hates
the Shoddy-Wall-Builders and His anger burns hot against them and all
who follow them.
So there is one fate for everyone who rejects the Commandments of
Äluahiym and abandons them to follow their own willful heart. This is the
word that Yirmeyahu spoke to Baruch son of Neriyah, and Elisha to
Gehazi his servant.
So it is with all men who entered the new covenant in the land of
Damascus, but then turned back and traitorously turned away from the
fountain of Living Water. They shall not be reckoned among the council
of the people,
READ THE NEXT PART CAREFUL BROTHERA AND SISTER OF THE
ASSEMBLY OF ALUAHYMN
and their names shall not be written in their book from the day the
Beloved Teacher dies until the Meshiakh from Aharon and from
Y’Ishra’al appears.
Such is the fate for all who join the company of the men of Qodesh
perfection and then become sick of obeying virtuous statutes. This is the
type of person who “melts in the crucible”.
This is when YHWH ‘refines’ us, those who melt, do not survive being
scrutinized by Äluahiym, they are rejected.
When his actions become evident, he shall be sent away from the
company, as if his lot had never fallen among the taught ones of
Äluahiym. In keeping with his impiety the most knowledgeable men shall
punish him until he returns to take his place among the men of the
Qodesh perfection. When his actions become evident, according to the
interpretation of the Torah which the men of Qodesh perfection live by,
no one is allowed to share either wealth or work with such a one, for all
the set-apart ones of the Almighty have cursed him.
Such is the fate for all who reject the Commandments, whether old or
new, who have turned their thoughts to false gods and who have lived by
their willful hearts: they have no part in the household of Torah.
They will be condemned along with the ‘men of mockery’, because they
have uttered lies against the correct torot and rejected the sure
Covenant that they made in the land of Damascus, that is, ‘the New
Covenant’. Neither they nor their families shall have any part in the
household of Torah.
Now from the day the Beloved Teacher passed away to the destruction of
all the warriors who went back to the ‘man of the lie’ will be about 40
years. (4000 years) Now at that time Äluahiym anger will burn against
Y’Ishra’al, as He said; “Neither sovereign nor prince” nor judge nor one
who exhorts to do what is not right will be left. But those who repent of
the sin of Ya’aqob have kept Äluahiym Covenant. Then each will speak to
his fellow, vindicating his brother, helping him walk in Äluahiym Way, and
Äluahiym shall listen to what they say, and hear it, and
“a record book has been written for him of those who fear Äluahiym
and honor His Name”
until salvation and righteousness are revealed for those who Fear
Äluahiym.
“And you shall again know the innocent, from the guilty, those who serve
Äluahiym and those who do not”. He keeps faith with those who love Him
and to those who keep His Commandments, for a thousand generations”.
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Raukh (Spirit) says to the
assemblies. To him who overcomes shall give to eat from the tree of life,
which is in the midst of the Paradise of Äluahiym.” He who overcomes
shall be dressed in white robes, and I shall by no means blot out his name
from the Book of Life, but I shall confess his name before My Father and
before His messengers. And all those dwelling on the earth, whose names
have not been written in the Book of Life of the slain Lamb, from the
foundation of the world shall worship him. “The beast that you saw was,
and is not, and is about to come up out of the pit of the deep and goes to
destruction. And those dwelling on the earth, whose names are not
written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, shall marvel
when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. And I saw the
dead, small and great, standing before the throne, and books were
opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the
dead were judged from what was written in the books, according to their
works. And if anyone was not found written in the Book of Life, he was
thrown into the lake of fire. And there shall by no means enter into it
whatever is unclean, neither anyone doing abomination and falsehood,1 but
only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life .and if anyone takes
away from the words of the book of this prophecy, Äluahiym shall take
away his part from the Book of Life, and out of the set-apart city, which
are written in this Book.
As for those separatists who left the city of the Tabernacle
(Yerushalayim) and relied on Äluahiym in the time of Y’Ishra’al
unfaithfulness, but defiled the Heykal; they shall return again to the way
of the people in a few matter [. . . .] Each of them shall be judged in the
Qodesh council according to his Raukh (spirit).
But all of the members of the Covenant who breached the restrictions of
the Torah, when the esteem of Äluahiym appears to Y’Ishra’al they shall
be excluded from the midst of the camp, and with them all who did evil in
YahuwDah when it was undergoing trial.
But all who hold fast to these statutes, going out and coming in according
to the Torah, always obeying the Teacher and confessing to
Äluahiym as follows: “We have wickedly sinned, we and our ancestors
by living contrary to the Covenant torot, just and true are Your
judgments against us”; and do not act arrogantly against His Qodesh
torot and His righteous ordinances and His reliable declarations and who
discipline themselves by the ancient torot by which the members of the
Yadah were governed and listen attentively to the Teacher of
Righteousness, not abandoning the correct torot when they hear
them; they will rejoice and be happy and exultant. They will prevail over
all the inhabitants of the earth.
Then Äluahiym will make atonement for them and they will experience
His deliverance because they have trusted in His Qodesh Name.
In His Name
Blessed be, in His name
YHWH be with you.' and they answered him, YHWH bless you.' "
Be not blind to the truth
And, hinnei, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that
YâHuWsHúa` passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O YHWH,
[thou] Ben David. An YâHuWsHúa` stood still, and called them, and said,
what will ye that I shall do unto you they say unto Him, YHWH, that our
eyes may be opened. So YâHuWsHúa` had compassion [on them], and
touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they
followed him.

Freely ye have received, freely give
A rule necessary, and of great extent. A servant in the Gospel Vineyard,
though worthy of his Comfortable support while in the work. Should never
preach for hire, or make a secular traffic of the Raukh (Raukhual work):
what a scandal is it for a man to traffic with gifts which he pretends, at
least, to have received from the Raukh HaQodesh, of which he is not the
master, but the dispenser. He who preaches to get a living, or make a
fortune, is guilty of the most infamous sacrilege
