IS YESHUA YHWH the Father?



Is Yeshua YHWH the Father?
 


2Ti 2:15  Study to shew thyself approved unto YHWH, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

In this midrash we are going to look at the scriptures to see if what many in the body of Moschiach says: "Yeshua is YHWH in the flesh", believing that the Father is Yeshua!
I have struggle many years with different approach, saying: Yeshua is theAngel of YHWH, Yeshua is YHWH the Father, Yeshua is Elohim, meaning he is also the Father.
What does the scriptures says?
Christians will tell you that in the so called "Old Testamen" "Jesus" is there. Many messianic will also have similar statements, only changing the name wit Yeshua.
Is it true that when it is written in b'reshit/Gen. 1:26: "let US make man in our own image..." that Elohim is speaking with Yeshua?
Is it true that when the three messengers of YHWH appear to Abram they are two messengers with Yeshua, or as I have also read, The Father, the Son and the "Holy Spirit", or for some others two messengers with Yeshua?
I have been surprise to see that even some good scholars who say to be "Jew" in order to give proof that there research are more accurate than a Goy/Gentile promote Yeshua to be YHWH in the flesh.
This statement disturb me, because it is to pretend that YHWH changed is nature and took the form of a human in order to be among his people. Can we see that in the scriptures?
We are going to see these points and give room to the scriptures to explain YHWH's Heart toward His people.
Before reading I will encourage you to lay beside all false conclusion and pray for an open heart and a right understanding. You may be surprise at the conclusion, just keep your heart for correction if necessary, you will not be the first, I have adjust my opinion many times in the last 10 years:
2Ti 3:16  All scripture is given by inspiration of YHWH, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
2Ti 3:17  That the man of YHWH may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

First, one major error that many do, is that they take the Brit HaChadsha and try to explain what they read outside the Torah, thus try to place the "car before the ox". Every serious scholar will say that the Torah is the foundation of all interpretation, Prophets and Brit HaChadsha. This include the apostles and even our Master Yeshua.
Yochanan/John (at least if it is he who wrote the book) had a very deep understanding in Hebrew interpretation. Since more than 20 centuries, the Greek mind has invaded the whole world and formed a philosophical thinking which cannot match with the Scriptures written by Hebrew people for Hebrew minded people. The Greek mind is abstract in its structure and is based on the ego of man, to determine what is right or what is wrong.
This is not the purpose of this midrash to go into details, suffice to say that we should make real effort to see from a Hebrew perspective in order to understand.
DO NOT TRY to understand what is NOT WRITTEN just because you THINK that this is the meaning! You will be wrong. Search and establish thing by two or three witness:
Deu 19:15  One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
Mat 18:16  But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
We will see that the scriptures is filled with many verses which confirm one another in a perfect sense.
Let us go back to the Book of Yochanan:
Joh 1:1  In the beginning (b'reshit in Hebrew) was the Word, and the Word was with YHWH, and the Word was YHWH.
Joh 1:2  The same was in the beginning with YHWH.
Joh 1:3  All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.
Now first let us see that in 1560 C.E. many translators like William Tendale who got hold on the Septuagint the Greek documents translated differently as those taking hold on the Latin Vulgate from Jerome:
First the King James version 1611 who follow Jerome Vulgate:
Joh 1:1  In the beginning was the Word, & the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:2  The same was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3  All things were made by him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Joh 1:4  In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

Now let us look at two witness of the time:
The Bishops from 1568:
Joh 1:1  In the begynnyng was the worde, & the worde was with God: and that worde was God.
Joh 1:2  The same was in the begynnyng with God.
Joh 1:3  All thynges were made by it: and without it, was made nothyng that was made.
Joh 1:4  In it was lyfe, and the lyfe was the lyght of men,
Geneva from 1587:
Joh 1:1  In the beginning was that Word, and that Word was with God, and that Word was God.
Joh 1:2  This same was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3  All things were made by it, and without it was made nothing that was made.
Joh 1:4  In it was life, and that life was the light of men.
In the two translation from Bishops and the Geneva, like in the translation from Tyndale, they all follow the Septuagint and using the impersonal pronoun "it", while those using the Latin Vulgate use the personal pronoun "him".
So we read in the Bishops:
Joh 1:14  And the same word became fleshe, and dwelt among vs ( and we sawe the glory of it, as the glory of the only begotten sonne of the father) full of grace and trueth.
The Geneva give it so:
Joh 1:14  And that Word was made flesh, and dwelt among vs, (and we sawe the glorie thereof, as the glorie of the onely begotten Sonne of the Father) full of grace and trueth.
We see the consistency in the "it", the Word who became flesh, while all others scriptures based on Latin Vulgate read "him" suggesting what is NOT in the text.
Let us now investigate what the Torah and the Word have in common with the words of Yochanan.
Gen 1:1  In the beginning (b'reshit) Elohim created the heaven and the earth.
Gen 1:2  And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Elohim moved upon the face of the waters.
Gen 1:3  And Elohim said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Gen 1:4  And Elohim saw the light, that it was good: and Elohim divided the light from the darkness.
Gen 1:5  And Elohim called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
Gen 1:6  And Elohim said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
Gen 1:7  And Elohim made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
Gen 1:8  And Elohim called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
Gen 1:9  And Elohim said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
Gen 1:10  And Elohim called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and Elohim saw that it was good.
Gen 1:11  And Elohim said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
Gen 1:12  And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and Elohim saw that it was good.
Gen 1:13  And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.
Gen 1:14  And Elohim said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
Gen 1:15  And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
Gen 1:16  And Elohim made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
Gen 1:17  And Elohim set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
Gen 1:18  And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and Elohim saw that it was good.
Gen 1:19  And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.
Gen 1:20  And Elohim said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
Gen 1:21  And Elohim created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and Elohim saw that it was good.
Gen 1:22  And Elohim blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
Gen 1:23  And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day.
Gen 1:24  And Elohim said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
Gen 1:25  And Elohim made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and Elohim saw that it was good.
Gen 1:26  And Elohim said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Gen 1:27  So Elohim created man in his own image, in the image of Elohim created he him; male and female created he them.
Gen 1:28  And Elohim blessed them, and Elohim said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Gen 1:29  And Elohim said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Gen 1:30  And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to everything that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
Gen 1:31  And Elohim saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
Ten times: "Elohim said"
  Remember what we read before:
Joh 1:1  In the beginning (b'reshit) was that Word, and that Word was with God, and that Word was God.
Joh 1:2  This same was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3  All things were made by it, and without it was made nothing that was made.
Joh 1:4  In it was life, and that life was the light of men.
The Greek word for "Word" is "logos", while in Hebrew it is "dabar".
Let us see definition from both words:
Strong's G3056
λόγος logos log'-os
From G3004; something said (including the thought);
G3004  egō
leg'-o
A primary verb; properly to “lay” forth, that is, (figuratively) relate (in words [usually of systematic or set discourse; whereas G2036 and G5346 generally refer to an individual expression or speech respectively; while G4483 is properly to break silence merely, and G2980 means an extended or random harangue]); by implication to mean: - ask, bid, boast, call, describe, give out, name, put forth, say (-ing, on), shew, speak, tell, utter.
Now the same with the word "dabar":
H1697
דּבר dâbâr daw-bawr' written dalet,beth, resh
From H1696; a word; by implication a matter (as spoken of) of thing; adverbially a cause: - act, advice, affair, answer, X any such (thing), +
H1696 dâbar daw-bar'
A primitive root; perhaps properly to arrange; but used figuratively (of words) to speak; rarely (in a destructive sense) to subdue:  
"Something said including the thoughts" We should ask where is the place of the thoughts in Adam or mankind, is it not part of the Nefesh, the Soul?
So Elohim is Ruach but like he gave to us he has THOUGHTS:
Elohim uses allegories in order to help us to understand part of what He want us to know. Many times throughout the Scriptures, Elohim is painted with human attributes to gives us insight of His character and will.
Isa 55:8  For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith YHWH.
What are the thoughts of Elohim?
Strong's # H4284
מחשׁבה machăshâbâh
From H2803; a contrivance, that is, (concretely) a texture, machine, or (abstractly) intention, plan (whether bad, a plot; or good, advice): - cunning (work), curious work, device (-sed), imagination, invented, means, purpose, thought.
H2803 châshab khaw-shab'
A primitive root; properly to plait or interpenetrate, that is, (literally) to weave or (generally) to fabricate; figuratively to plot or contrive (usually in a malicious sense); hence (from the mental effort) to think, regard, value, compute: - (make) account (of), conceive, consider, count, cunning (man, work, workman), devise, esteem, find out, forecast, hold, imagine, impute, invent, be like, mean, purpose, reckon (-ing be made), regard, think.
    
Could it be what we read in b'reshit/Gen. chapter 1: "Elohim said".
The Word/dabar/logos/Thoughts of the mind of Elohim were spoken by Elohim (said) and created everything Elohim had intentionally prepared beforehand?
Let us go further and see throughout the Tanak what is the position of "the Word":

Isa 45:23  I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
The foundation of Yochanan 1:14
Isa 55:11  So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. (to be read in the light of Yochanan chapter 1:14)

Midrash in the First Century

Yochanan/John was an Hebrew (Jew) speaking and thinking Hebraic. When he wrote the Gospel of “John”, he had a specific word in his mind:
(Isa 55:10 [NRKJV])
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

(Isa 55:11 [NRKJV])
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

(John 1:14 [NRKJV])
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only first born of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

(Rev 19:10 [NRKJV])
And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Yehoshua: worship יהוה: for the testimony of Yehoshua is the spirit of prophecy.

(Rev 19:11 [NRKJV])
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

(Rev 19:12 [NRKJV])
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

(Rev 19:13 [NRKJV])
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called THE WORD of יהוה.

Is there any question, can we now conclude that Yeshua IS the Word made flesh according to the scriptures  and that He is NOT the Father, can we say that Yeshua is the Image of Elohim but NOT Yehowah Elohim?   
May Yehowah bless you and keep you as you walk in the path of life, following the steps of our Master Yeshua HaMoschiach.
