Moshe life’s end is coming closer and closer. As the
faithful one of יהוה, Moshe admonish the
children of Israel
The Brit Chadasha (falsely call “New Testament”), the
renewed (Chadasha) covenant (Brit) is not a separate teaching
addressed to the “church” or to “Christians”.
The “church system” didn’t exist in Yehoshua’s time, neither Christianity. Yehoshua
came to restore the household of Ya’acov (Luke 1:33, Eph; 2: 11-21, Yochanan
10:16), not to build a new religion.
Elohim speaks first to those of the House of
Ya’acov, Israel , and then to those who have
joined themselves to the House of Israel
Eph 2:18 for through him (Yehoshua) we both (Yehuda
and Ephraim that is the House of Israel
Eph 2:19 now therefore ye are no more
strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the
household of YHWH;
Sha’ul write that once somebody as make “T”shuvah” (repentance) and believe in
the Name of Yehoshua, according to the doctrine of salvation, he become a
member of Israel and not of the “church” which didn’t came into existence
before Constantine in with the Council of Nicaea in 325 C .E.
As we read we go deeper in the Torah trying to see
behind the letter. The “p’shat” level
or literal make plain what happened to our forefathers. Disobedience is the
roots of trouble, and punishment. In the Brit
Chadasha the apostles expound the Torah in their “midrash” (teaching). If we study the Torah we will see it plainly.
The mystery of the Torah or the “sod”, reveal the deeper meaning and mind of יהוה.
Deu 29:9
“Therefore you shall guard the words of this covenant, and do them, so that you
prosper in all that you do.
To guard and to do: Ya’acov (James) write:
Jas 1:22 and become doers of the Word, and not hearers only,1
deceiving yourselves. Footnote: 1See Mt.
Mat 7:24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does them,
shall be like a wise man who built his house on the rock*,
Mat 7:25 and the rain came down, and the floods came, and the winds blew and
beat on that house, and it did not fall,
for it was founded on the rock.
Mat 7:26 “And everyone who hears these words of Mine,
and does not do them,1
shall be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand, Footnote: 1John 3:36.
Mat 7:27 and the rain came down, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and
they beat on that house, and it fell, and great
was its fall.”
*Which
“rock” does Yehoshua is speaking of?
Deu 32:3 because I will publish the name of YHWH:
ascribe ye greatness unto our Elohim.
Deu 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: An El of truth and
without iniquity, just and right is he.
Deu 32:15 but Jeshurun (another name for Israel
Jeshurun: ישׁרוּן yeshûrûn yesh-oo-roon' The name come form the root “yashar”, upright, straight.
Luk 6:46 “But why do you call Me ‘Master, Master,’ and do
not do what I say?
Luk 6:47 “Everyone who is coming to Me, and is hearing My words and is doing
them, I shall show you whom he is like:
Luk 6:48 “He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock. And when
a flood came, the stream burst against that house, but was unable to shake it,
for it was founded on the rock.
Luk 6:49 “But the one hearing and not doing, is like a man who built a house on
the earth without a foundation,
against which the stream burst, and immediately it fell. And the ruin of
that house was great.”
Luk 8:21 and He (Yehoshua) answering, said to them, “My
mother and My brothers are those who are
hearing the Word of Elohim and doing
it.”
Rom 2:13 For not
the hearers of the Torah are righteous in the sight of Elohim, but the doers of the Torah1 shall be declared right
Rev 22:14 “Blessed
are those1 doing His commands,2 so that the authority shall be theirs
unto the tree of life, and to enter through the gates into the city. Footnotes: 1See
Mt.
Mat 19:17 And He said to him, “Why do you
call Me good? No one is good except One – Elohim. But if you wish to enter into life, guard the
commands.”
We see here in this few words that
the teaching from Yehoshua and the apostle didn’t depart from encouraging the
people to follow the Torah, a perquisite to enter the Kingdom of Elohim 150 C .E., Origen and Tertullian
in 190-200 C .E.
It is Tertullian who adapted the
pagan name “Trinitas”, both developed
two different doctrines of the “trinity
concept”. Origen developed the eastern one, follow by Greek orthodox and
Tertullian; the one followed by the Romans Catholics.
Today among Christianity, rebellion
is rampant and you will have a hard time if you try to convince one of them to
follow the Torah, they will accuse you of legalism,
trying to make yourselves right before “G-d” by works.
Here
we read a clear statement from our Master:
Joh 6:44 no man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him
up at the last day.
Is
not given to man to repent, but to the Father of all spirits to draw one to
Messiah Yehoshua!
Joh 6:65 and he said, Therefore said I unto you, that
no man can come unto me, except it were given
unto him of my Father.
Religion
does not bring one to the truth, but genuine repentance, because יהוה
look at the heart of man.
Jer 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all
things, and desperately wicked:
who can know it?
Jer 17:10 I
YHWH search the heart, I try the
reins, even to give every man according
to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
Psa 34:18 YHWH is nigh unto them that are of a broken
heart; and saveth such as be of a
contrite spirit.
Religion like Christianity is a man made tradition, mixed with pagan belief, used
by יהוה
until the time of restoration of all things draw near. יהוה during
centuries has keep a remnant for himself, hid from the world in order to be
preserved from destruction. Unlike our brethren from Yehudah “Jews” who were
kept by the Torah and confronted with chastisement and punishment in order to
bring a remnant to Yehoshua, what we can see today all around the world.
Hidden among Christianity, you will
ask Brother Daniel are you serious? I will answer with Yehoshua own words:
Mat 13:24 another
parable put he forth unto them,
saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
Mat 13:25 but while men slept, his enemy
came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
Mat 13:26 but when the blade was sprung up, and brought
forth fruit, then appeared the tares
also.
Mat 13:27 so the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst
not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
Mat 13:28 He said unto them, an enemy hath done this. The
servants said unto him, Wilt thou then
that we go and gather them up?
Mat 13:29 but he said, nay; lest while ye gather up the
tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
Mat 13:30 Let both grow together until
the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will
say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in
bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Yehoshua gave
also the understanding of this parable so that can see clearly who the tares
are:
Mat 13:36 then Yehoshua sent the multitude away, and
went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares
of the field.
Mat 13:37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of
man (Yeshua);
Mat 13:38 The field is the world (Christianity); the good seed are the
children of the kingdom; but the
tares are the children of the wicked one;
Mat 13:39 The
enemy that sowed them is the devil (HaStan in Hebrew); the harvest is the end of the world (that is to say in our days);
and the reapers are the angels.
Mat 13:40 as
therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the
end of this world.
Mat 13:41 The
Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them
which do iniquity (iniquity is transgression of the Torah);
Mat 13:42 and
shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of
teeth.
Mat 13:43 Then
shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who
hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Is not HaSatan who has given power the Catholic
Church to spread his doctrine all over the world, and planted the tares in the
field?
In order to get
the full meaning of this parable we must understand what is a tare also call darnel
The ISBE (International Standard Bible
Encyclopedia) gives us following description:
Tares
târz (ζιζάνια, zizánia (Mat_13:25 ff),
margin “darnel”): Zizania is
equivalent to Arabic zuwān,
the name given to several varieties of darnel of which Lolium temulentum, the “bearded darnel,” is the one most resembling wheat, and has been supposed to be degenerated wheat. On the near approach of harvest it
is carefully weeded out from among the wheat by the women and children. Zuwān is commonly used as chickens'
food; it is not poisonous to human beings unless infected with the mold ergot.
The “most resembling wheat, supposed to be
degenerated wheat”! What a better description could our Master had used to
describe the true believers and those fake “Christians”
who reject the Torah having their mind sealed to destruction. Do not think
that I am high minded, for I remember
where יהוה
took me from. Repentance is open to every one until the “fullness of the nations has come in” (Romans 10:25, Luke 21:24), a
day that is now almost there.
Deu 29:10 “All
of you are standing today before יהוה
your Elohim: your leaders,
your tribes, your elders and your officers, all the men of Yisra’ĕl,
Deu
29:11 your little ones, your wives, and
your sojourner who is in the midst of your camp, from the one who cuts your
wood to the one who draws your water,
Deu
29:12 so that you should enter into
covenant with יהוה your
Elohim, and into His oath, which יהוה your
Elohim makes with you today,
Deu
29:13 in
order to establish you today as a people for Himself, and He Himself be your
Elohim, as He has spoken to you,
and as He has sworn to your fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ.
Deu
29:14 “And not with you alone I am making this covenant and this oath,
Deu
29:15 but with him who stands here with us
today before יהוה our Elohim, as well as with him who is not here with
us today.
Verses 10-15: The covenant is established with all
present at this time and is bounding to all, leaders, elders, officers all the
men of Israel
We read many times that Moshes tells the children of Israel
Sh’mot 12:19, 12:48-49,
Exo 12:49 “There is one Torah for the
native-born and for the stranger who sojourns among you.”
Verse 13, we read what Kefa and Yochanan write:
1Pe 2:9 But you
are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a set-apart nation, a people for a
possession, that you should proclaim the praises of Him who called you out
of darkness into His marvellous light,
1Pe 2:10 who once were not a people (Hosea
1:9), but now the people of
Elohim; who had not obtained compassion, but now obtained compassion.
1Jn 3:2 Beloved
ones, now we are children of Elohim…(Hosea 1:10)……
This is what Yehoshua brought to us when he redeemed us
by paying the price for our transgression of the Torah.
Verses 14-15:
The proclamation for those who are not there today is for
us those who enter the covenant following Yehoshua Messiah.
Act 2:39 “For the promise is to you and to
your children, and to all who are far
off, as many as יהוה our Elohim shall call.”
Joh 17:20 “And I do not pray for these alone,
but also for those believing in Me
through their word,
Joh 10:16 and other
sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they
shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
Which fold the sheep do not belong too? That is Ephraim, the House of Ysrael At this
time the House of Yehudah and the House of Israel, Ephraim were already separate since more than 700 years.
Deu
29:16 “For you know how we dwelt in the land of Mitsrayim
Deu
29:17 and you saw their abominations and their idols, wood and stone, silver and
gold, which were with them,
Deu
29:18 lest there should be among you a man
or woman or clan or tribe, whose heart turns away today from יהוה
our Elohim, to go and serve the mighty ones of these nations, lest there should
be among you a root bearing bitterness or wormwood.
The heart is the place of deception.
Jer 17:9 “The heart
is crooked1 above all, and desperately sick – who shall know
it? Footnote: 1See 7:24, 16:12, 18:12,
23:17.
Jer 17:10 “I, יהוה, search the heart, I try the
kidneys(read: figuratively the mind, the inner self), and give every man
according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.
Deu 29:19 “And it shall be, when he hears the words of
this curse, that he should bless himself in his heart, saying, ‘I have peace
though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart,’ in order to add drunkenness to
thirst.
Even today
there are people who boast themselves to be secured and curse Elohim. They are
fools who do not even fear the judgment because their heart is closed to the
truth. Rich or poor, in both groups we find people rejecting the truth been
entangle in the stubbornness of their heart. I repeat: stubbornness of their
heart. Not because they don’t understand, not because they have not heard, but
the Torah says clearly, the stubbornness
of their heart.
When we speak
to people we should pray to our heavenly father to open the heart of the people
and enable them to receive the truth. Yehoshua
says: no man can come to the Father if He doesn’t draw him!
Deu
29:20 “יהוה
would not forgive him, but rather, the displeasure of יהוה
and His jealousy shall burn against that man, and every curse that is written in this book shall settle on him, and יהוה
shall blot out his name from under the heavens.
To blot out his
name from under the heavens means no more salvation. The curse is the opposite
of blessing; both are bound to the Torah. Don’t make merchandise of blessings
as the Christians do: “you pay your tithe, G-d will bless you; you have
shortage, because you don’t pay your tithe. In the “midrash” on “tithe”, I explain the purpose of giving tithe, which
is not what we have heard in Christianity. A Pastor who is not a Levite and
reject the Torah, how can he pretend to receive tithe?
יהוה
is
a jealous Eloha. Sh’mot 20:5; a godly jealousy, he loves His people and do not
want them to be destroyed.
Deu
29:21 “And יהוה
shall
separate him for evil, out of all
the tribes of Yisra’ĕl, according to all the curses of the covenant that are
written in this Book of the Torah.
One of the
countries I spent many years, is the Philippines
You can watch
all over the world and see what Idolatry has
cause among nations. I have seen in many Asian countries Laos, Vietnam, India,
Indonesia and other countries in South America , Peru, Argentina, Mexico,
Brazil, only to name few of them, all with different form of idolatry and none
of those countries escape plagues. It is amazing that for some of them, they
believe on One “G-d” but beside it they worship other “under g-d” according to their traditions. In Africa
it goes even more critical as many countries practice woodo the worship of the forces of darkness.
Deu
29:22 “And the generation to come of your children who rise up after you, and
the foreigner who comes from a far land, shall say when they see the plagues of that land and the sicknesses which יהוה has
sent into it:
Deu
29:23 ‘All its land is sulphur, salt, and
burning; it is not sown, nor does it
bear, nor does any grass grow there, like the overthrow of Seḏom and
Amorah (Gomorah), Aḏmah and Tseḇoyim, which
יהוה overthrew in His displeasure and His wrath.’
Deu
29:24 “And all nations shall say, ‘Why has יהוה
done so to this land? What does the
heat of this great displeasure mean?’
Deu
29:25 “And it shall be said, ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of יהוה
Elohim of their fathers, which He made
with them when He brought them out of the land of Mitsrayim
Deu
29:26 ‘And they went and served other
mighty ones and bowed themselves to them, mighty ones that they did not know
and that He had not given to them,
Deu
29:27 therefore the displeasure of יהוה
burned against this land, to bring on it
every curse that is written in this book.
Deu
29:28 ‘And יהוה
uprooted them from their land in
displeasure, and in wrath, and in great rage, and cast them into another land,
as it is today.’
1Ki 9:4 “And you, if you (Sh’lomo) walk
before Me as your father Dawiḏ walked, in integrity of heart and in
uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, if you guard My
laws and My right-rulings,
1Ki 9:5 then I shall establish the throne of your reign over Yisra’ĕl forever,
as I promised Dawiḏ your father, saying, ‘There is not to cease a man of yours
on the throne of Yisra’ĕl.’
1Ki 9:6 “If you at all turn back,
you or your sons, from following Me, and do not guard My commands, My laws,
which I have set before you, but shall go and serve other mighty ones and bow
yourselves to them,
1Ki 9:7 then I shall cut off Yisra’ĕl from the face of the soil which I have
given them, and send away from My presence this house which I have set apart
for My Name. And Yisra’ĕl* shall be a
proverb and a mockery among all the peoples.
*At this time Israel
1Ki 9:8 “And this house, which has been exalted, everyone who passes by it
shall be astonished, and hiss, and say, ‘Why has יהוה done
thus to this land and to this house?’
1Ki
9:9 “Then they shall say,
‘Because they have forsaken יהוה
their Elohim, who brought their fathers out of the land of Mitsrayim
We know that
after Sh’lomo’s reigns the Kingdom has been parted into two Kingdoms, the
Kingdom of the North, called the House of Israel or Ephraim and the Kingdom of
the south called the Kingdom
of Yehuda
Jer 22:7 “And I shall prepare destroyers against you, each with his weapons. And
they shall cut down your choice cedars (proud men) and throw them into the fire.
Jer 22:8 “And many gentiles (goy, nations) shall pass by this city, and they
shall say to one another, ‘Why has יהוה done
so to this great city?’
Jer 22:9 “Then they shall say, ‘Because they have forsaken the covenant of יהוה
their Elohim, and bowed themselves to
other mighty ones and served them.’ ”
Jeremiah was called by YHWH to the office of a prophet while still a
youth (Jer_1:6) about 20 years of age,
in the 13th year of King Josiah (Jer_1:2;
Jer_25:3), in the year 627 bc, and was active in this capacity from this time
on to the destruction of Jerusalem, 586 bc, under kings Josiah, Jehoahaz,
Jehoiakim, Jehoiachin, and Zedekiah (ISBE).
Yrmeyahu (Jeremiah)
spoke more than 880 years after Moshe brought the Children of Israel
in the
wilderness around 1513 C .E;
and more than 370 years after the division of the two Kingdoms, Yehudah the southern Kingdom and the
House of Israel, Ephraim the northern Kingdom.
Deu 29:29 “The secret matters belong to יהוה our
Elohim, but what is revealed belongs to us and to our children forever, to do
all the Words of this Torah.
Not so has
some have supposed and many times falsely quote, the meaning here is clear what
is revealed means the Torah, and “secrets matters” means things which are
hidden.
The Word “secret matters” is the Hebrew word:
Strong’s# H5641 סתר sâthar saw-thar'
A primitive
root; to hide (by covering),
literally or figuratively: - be absent, keep
close, conceal, hide (self),
(keep) secret, X surely.
The “secret matters” are for those who
follow יהוה
and Yehoshua:
Psa 25:14 The
secret (sod) of YHWH is with them
that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
Mar 4:11 and He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the secret of the reign of Elohim,
but to those who are outside, all are
done in parables,
Deu 30:1 “And
it shall be, when all these words come upon you, the blessing and the curse
which I have set before you, and you shall bring them back to your heart among all the gentiles (nations) where יהוה
your Elohim drives you,
Deu
30:2 and
shall turn back to יהוה
your Elohim and obey His voice, according to all that I command you today, with
all your heart and with all your being, you and your children,
Let us not forget that, “Ideal
repentance is motivated by the desire to return to [Elohim], not because one
seeks to rid oneself of suffering, and benefit from Divine blessings” (ArtScroll Stone Edition Chumash p,
1091).
Moshe say
clearly that it will happen when first all blessing and curses have come upon
his children and their descendants have been scattered among the nations, that
they shall “turn back” and “obey with all their heart with all their
being” than, and only than יהוה will turn back the captivity and gather the remnant
from all the people where He has scattered them!
The idea here
from returning is describe using the
Hebrew word “shub” the root word from
שׁוּבה shûbâh shoo-baw' From “shub” H7725; a return:
- returning, and from whence we have the Hebrew “t’shubah”, to make repentance, to “turn back” with all our heart to obey יהוה
with all our heart and all our being. This is what Yehoshua was saying “if you love me keep my commandments
(Yoch/John: 14:15).
Once again it
is amazing to see how many people have proclaimed their “repentance” and still disobey the Torah, even among messianic who proclaim the Torah but
make their own rules, others like in Christianity calling the keeping of the
Torah “a curse” misquoting Sha’ul
word in Galatians:
Gal 3:13 The
Messiah hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us:
for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
What they miss
here is that it is not the Torah that is “cursed”
but the rejecting of the Torah to obey man made rules (Pharisaic oral laws)
that brought the curse.
As I explained
in another “parsha” Yehoshua was not cursed because he never sinned and
therefore was not “cursed” much more
he was like the “scapegoat” during
Yom Kippur (see the midarsh Yom Kippur) loaded
with our sins (Yeshayahu 53:6)and
thus spared us of the consequences of our sin according to the Torah by making “t’shubah” returning to the intended
way, the “Torah of Liberty”
(Ya’acov/James 1:25) and receiving compassion and salvation.
Isa 53:6 All we
like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and YHWH hath laid on him the iniquity (sins,
transgression of the Torah) of us all.
If no enough
with this verse, Christians will try
to get you with this other one from the same Epistle:
Gal 3:10 for as many as are of the works of the law
are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not
in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
“For” a conjunction particle indicating the indirect
object of the act and final cause of what was done “work of the Torah”. Unfortunately Christians and also other groups forget to see that the all Epistle
to the Galatians is written in the main part to explain the “Justification
by faith” as it was with Abraham.
Gal 3:1 O foolish
Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth (Torah), before whose eyes Yehoshua the Messiah
hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
Gal 3:2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the
Spirit by the works of the law*, or by the hearing of faith?
Gal 3:3 are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh*?
*”works of the
laws” Hebrew MaHasion HaTorah
Mat 15:3 But
he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of
Elohim by your tradition?
Tradition: “Takanot”a
list of laws according to Judaism (Avi
Mordechai, Millennium 2000)
* “perfect by the flesh”, trying to become
perfect after the rules and laws “takanot”
of men. At this time the rules of the Pharisee, today the Rabies and the
Talmud.
Deu
30:3 then יהוה
your Elohim shall turn back your captivity, and shall have compassion on you,
and He shall turn back and gather you from all the peoples where יהוה
your Elohim has scattered you.
Verses 1-3
יהוה promises are always with
mercy the opposite of judgment. This is the promise יהוה
did
in Vayyqra 26:40-42:
Lev 26:40 ‘But if they confess their
crookedness and the crookedness of their fathers, with their
trespass in which they trespassed against Me, and that they also have walked
contrary to Me,
Lev 26:41 and that I also have walked contrary to them and have brought them into
the land of their enemies – if their uncircumcised heart is then humbled, and
they accept the punishment of their crookedness,
Lev 26:42 then I shall remember My covenant with Yaʽaqoḇ, and also My covenant with Yitsḥaq, and also
remember My covenant with Aḇraham, and remember the land.
Lev 26:44 ‘and yet for all this, when they are in the land of their enemies,
I shall not reject them, nor shall I loathe them so as to destroy them and
break My covenant with them. for I am יהוה
their Elohim.
Ya’cov/James speaks also from יהוה
mercy
Jas 2:13 for the judgment is without
compassion to the one who has shown no compassion. and compassion boasts (prevail) over judgment. (Scriptures 1998)
Jas 2:13 for he shall have judgment without mercy,
that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment (RNKJV)
All the prophets and the
Apostles have spoken of the mercy in the restoration of YHWH’s people:
Isa 14:1 because יהוה has compassion on Yaʽaqoḇ,
and shall again choose Yisra’ĕl1, and give them rest in their
own land. And the strangers shall join them, and they shall cling to the house
of Yaʽaqoḇ2. Footnotes: 1See 45:17, Jer. 30:11, Jer. 46:28,
Dan. 2:44, Amos 9:8, Zech. 1:16-17, Zech. 2:10-12, Joel 3:16. 2See 56:6-8 &
60:3, Amos 9:12, Zech. 2:11, Zech. 8:23, Rom. 11:17-24, Rev. 21:24.
Isa 45:17 Yisra’ĕl shall be saved by יהוה with
an everlasting deliverance. You are not to be ashamed nor hurt, forever and
ever.
The word “again” in
the verse 16 is often written “yet” as we can read in
Isa 14:1 for יהוה
will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet
choose Israel
Yet: Strong’s # H5750 עוד ‛ôd ode,
From H5749; properly iteration or continuance;
used only adverbially (with or without preposition), again, repeatedly,
still, more: - again, X all life long, at all, besides, but,
else, further (-more), henceforth, (any) longer, (any) more (-over), X once,

importance, because it is conform to the future action of the “Brit Chadasha” i.e. Renew Covenant and not “New Testament” as many denomination all
around the world promote.
Jer 30:11 ‘For I am with you,’ declares יהוה, ‘to
save you. Though I make a complete end of all gentiles1
(nations) where I have scattered you, yet I
do not make a complete end of you. But I shall reprove you in judgment, and
by no means leave you unpunished.’
Jer 46:28 “Do not fear, O Yaʽaqoḇ My servant,” declares יהוה,
“for I am with you. Though I make a complete end of all the gentiles (nations)
to which I have driven you, yet I do not make a
complete end of you1. But I shall reprove you in
right-ruling, and by no means leave you unpunished.”
Dan 2:44 “And in the days of these
sovereigns the Elah (singular of Elohim) of the heavens shall set up a reign
which shall never be destroyed, nor the
reign pass on to other people – it crushes and puts to an end all these
reigns, and it shall stand forever1.
Amo 9:8 “Look, the eyes of the Master יהוה are
on the sinful reign1, and I shall
destroy it from the face of the earth, except that, I do not completely destroy the house of Yaʽaqoḇ,” declares יהוה.
Zec 2:11 “And many gentiles (nations) shall
be joined to יהוה in that day1, and they
shall become My people. And I shall dwell in your midst. And you shall know
that יהוה of hosts has sent Me to you.
Zec 8:23 “Thus said יהוה of hosts, ‘In those days ten
men from all languages of the nations take hold, yea, they shall take hold of
the edge of the garment of a man, a Yehuḏite1,
saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.”
Rom 11:17 And if some of the branches were
broken off, and you, being a wild olive
tree,(Ephraim) have been grafted in among them, and came to share the root and fatness of the olive tree,
Rom 11:18 do not boast against the
branches (Yehudin). And if you boast, remember: you do not bear the root, but the root(Yehoshua) bears you!
Rom 11:19 You shall say then, “The branches were broken off that I might be
grafted in.”
Rom 11:20 Good! By unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by belief. Do not
be arrogant, but fear.
Rom 11:21 for if Elohim did not spare the
natural branches,(Yehudin) He might not spare you either.
Rom 11:22 See then the kindness and sharpness of Elohim: on those who fell
sharpness, but toward you kindness, if you continue in His kindness, otherwise you also shall be cut off.
Rom 11:23 and they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, shall be grafted
in, for Elohim is able to graft them in again.
Rom 11:24 For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and
were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more shall
these who are the natural branches,
be grafted into their own olive tree?
Rev 21:24 And the gentiles,(nations) of those who are saved, shall walk in its light,1 and the
sovereigns of the earth bring their esteem into it.
Commentary from
Lawrence
Scripture records that the House of Israel Israel
entirely YHVH would never allow Israel Israel ’s
perpetual existence is constant reminder of YHVH’s plan and eventually Israel Israel
and instead insist that they are speaking about Judah land of Israel
starting in 1948 is the fulfilment of these prophesies and the ten tribes of Israel
For those who still
have doubt concerning of the validity of יהוה
mighty plan concerning all Israel
Jer 31:35 Thus saith YHWH, which giveth the sun for a
light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by
night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; YHWH of hosts is his
name:
Jer 31:36 If those ordinances depart from before me, saith YHWH, then the seed
of Israel
Do we still see have
the sun, the moon, and the stars? I guess the answer is obvious, so it is also
with Israel
Yrmeyahu goes on and
say:
Jer 31:37 Thus
saith יהוה; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath,
I will also cast off all the seed of Israel
Again, today in spite
of all modern instruments to measure no man was able to give record of the
heaven seize!
Deu 30:4 “If any of you are driven out to the farthest parts under the heavens,
from there יהוה your Elohim does gather you,
and from there He does take you.
Deu
30:5 “And יהוה
your Elohim shall bring you to the land which your fathers possessed, and you shall possess it. And He shall do good to
you, and increase you more than your fathers.
Deu
30:6 “And יהוה
your Elohim shall circumcise your heart and the heart of your seed, to love יהוה
your Elohim with all your heart and with all your being, so that you might
live,
The prophet YrmeYahu
speaks of the time when YHWH will change the stony heart of the people into a
heart of flesh. This mean when the Ruach
HaQodesh will come through Yehoshua Messiah, the time for the ingathering
will also come soon and I am persuaded that for many of us, they will not taste
death, as the last generation will witness the return of our Master Yehoshua
Messiah when he will come to establish יהוה Kingdom
Jer 31:31 “See, the days are coming,”
declares יהוה, “when
I shall make a “new covenant” with the house of Yisra’ĕl and with the house of
Yehuḏah1, Footnote: 1See
Heb. 8:8-12, Heb. 10:16-17.
Let us
look at the words “new covenant” in
the Hebrew and catch the full meaning of יהוה thoughts:
New: Strong’s # H2319
חדשׁ
châdâsh
khaw-dawsh' From H2318; new: - fresh, new thing.
H2318 châdash khaw-dash' A
primitive root; to be new; causatively to rebuild: - renew, repair.
Covenant: Strong’s # H1285 בּרית berı̂yth ber-eeth'
From H1262 (in the sense of cutting (like H1254)); a compact (because made by
passing between pieces of flesh): - confederacy, [con-]feder[-ate], covenant, league.
There can be no
more doubt as we see the Hebrew words Chadasha
Briyth or as we are use to say “Brit
Chadashah”
So it is clear
that today we don’t have a “New covenant”
in the sense of something fully “new”
but something that was broken and has
been “renewed”!
The difference
with the covenant under Moshe and the
covenant which came with Yehoshua Messiah lies in the fact that the first was
written on tablets of stone representing the attitude of the heart of our
ancestors (unbelief) and the second covenant which came with Yehoshua Messiah
is written in our heart by Faith by the “Ruach
HaQodesh” (Set Apart Spirit)!
Jer
31:32 not like the covenant I
made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to bring them
out of the land
of Mitsrayim
Jer
31:33 “For this is the covenant
I shall make with the house of
Yisra’ĕl after those days, declares יהוה: I
shall put My Torah in their inward parts, and write it on their hearts. And I
shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.
Eze 36:24 “And I shall take you from among
the gentiles, and I shall gather you out of all lands, and I shall bring you
into your own land.
Eze 36:25 “And I shall sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean – from
all your filthiness and from all your idols I cleanse you.
Eze 36:26 “And I shall give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. And I shall take the heart of stone out of your
flesh, and I shall give you a heart of flesh,
Eze 36:27 and put
My Spirit within you1. And I shall cause you to walk
in My laws and guard My right-rulings and shall do them.
Unless we receive the new heart by the regeneration of
the Ruach, we cannot follow the Torah! It is why we see people rejecting the
Torah today, the old man in unregenerate therefore cannot obey יהוה
Rom 8:5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the matters of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the
matters of the Spirit.
Rom 8:7 Because the mind of the flesh is
enmity towards Elohim, for it does not subject itself1 to the Torah of Elohim2, neither indeed is it able,
Rom 8:9 but you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of Elohim dwells in you. And if anyone does not have the
Spirit of Messiah, this one is not His.
We see clearly
that to obey is to follow the Torah. Now can we explain why Christians reject the Torah, and live
after the flesh, feeling?
The Ruach (Set Apart Spirit) is gentle and
lead a sincere believer into all truth:
Joh 16:13 “But
when He comes, the Spirit of the Truth, He
shall guide you into all the truth. For He shall not speak from Himself, but whatever He hears He shall
speak, and He shall announce to you what is to come.
Deu
30:7 and יהוה
your Elohim shall put all these curses on your enemies and on those who hate
you, who persecuted you.
Deu
30:8 “And you shall turn back and obey
the voice of יהוה and do all His commands
which I command you today.
To turn back is the word: Strong’s # 7725 שׁוּבshûb shoob Shin, vav,
beth.
A primitive root; to turn back (hence, away) transitively or intransitively,
literally or figuratively (not necessarily with the idea of return to the starting point);
generally to retreat; often
adverbially again: - ([break, build, circumcise, dig, do anything,
do evil, feed, lay down, lie down, lodge, make, rejoice, send, take, weep]) X
again, (cause to) answer (+ again), X in any case (wise), X at all, averse,
bring (again, back, home again), call [to mind], carry again (back), cease, X
certainly, come again (back) X consider, + continually, convert, deliver
(again), + deny, draw back, fetch home again, X fro, get [oneself] (back)
again, X give (again), go again (back, home), [go] out, hinder, let, [see]
more, X needs, be past, X pay, pervert, pull in again, put (again, up again),
recall, recompense, recover, refresh, relieve, render (again), X repent,
requite, rescue, restore, retrieve, (cause to, make to) return, reverse,
reward, + say nay, send back, set again, slide back, still, X surely, take back
(off), (cause to, make to) turn (again, self again, away, back, back again,
backward, from, off), withdraw.
If we surch the Hebrew word for “repentance” we will find:
Strong’s word: 7725 Shub shin,
beth. This is the same word. To repent is the action to turn back to
the Torah. This what Yochanan the immerser, Yehoshua and the apostle were
telling the people: “turn back to the Torah” in order to be accepted by Elohim!
Mat 3:1 and in those days Yoḥanan the Immerser came proclaiming in the
wilderness of Yehuḏah,
Mat 3:2 and saying, “Repent, for the
reign of the heavens has come near!”
Mat 4:17 From that time יהושע
began to proclaim and to say, “Repent,
for the reign of the heavens has drawn near.”
Act 2:36 “Therefore let all the house of
Yisra’ĕl know for certain that Elohim has made this יהושע,
whom you impaled, both Master and Messiah.”
Act
2:37 and having heard this,
they were pierced to the heart, and said to Kĕpha and the rest of the emissaries,
“Men, brothers, what shall we do?”
Act
2:38 and Kĕpha said to them, “Repent, and let each one of you be immersed in the Name of יהושע Messiah for the forgiveness of sins.1 and you shall receive the gift of the Set-apart
Spirit.
We see the action to repent (to turn back to the Torah)
for the forgiveness of sins. Sin been the transgression of the Torah
(Yocha.3:5) is together with the action of been immerse in the Name for the forgiveness of sins! Have you been “immersed” in the Name of Yehoshua
Messiah, If not think about it, as Yehoshua himself having NO sin, was immersed by Yochanan in order to fulfill
all righteousness:
Mat 3:13 then יהושע came
from Galil to Yoḥanan at the Yardĕn to
be immersed by him.
Mat
3:14 But Yoḥanan was
hindering Him, saying, “I need to be immersed by You, and You come to me?”
Mat 3:15 but יהושע
answering, said to him, “Permit it now, for thus it is fitting for us to fill all righteousness.” Then he permitted
Him.
Deu 30:9 “And יהוה your
Elohim shall make you have excess in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of
your body, and in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground
for good. For יהוה turns back to rejoice over
you for good as He rejoiced over your fathers,
Deu
30:10 if you obey the voice of יהוה
your Elohim, to guard His commands and His laws which are written in this Book
of the Torah, if you turn back to יהוה
your Elohim with all your heart and with all your being.
Verse 9-10:
Curses are turned unto blessing through obedience to the Torah
Deu
30:11 “For this command which I am
commanding you today, it is not too hard for you, nor is it far off.
Deu
30:12 “It is not in the heavens, to say,
‘Who shall ascend into the heavens for us, and bring it to us, and cause us to
hear it, so that we do it?’
Deu
30:13 “Nor is it beyond the sea, to say,
‘Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, and cause us to hear it,
so that we do it?’
Deu
30:14 “For the Word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart – to do
it.
Deu
30:15 “See, I have set before you today
life and good, and death and evil,
Verses 11-15. Apostle Sha’ul
uses these verses when writing to the Romans, speaking of the salvation of some
of the brethren who were still under the letter of the Torah. All is in Messiah
who is the goal of the Torah and not the end as it is written in the King James
Version:
Rom 10:1 Truly brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to
Elohim for Yisra’ĕl is for deliverance.
Rom 10:2 for I bear them witness that they have an ardour for Elohim, but not
according to knowledge.
Rom 10:3 for not knowing the righteousness of Elohim,
and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not subject themselves to1
the righteousness of Elohim. Footnote: 1Or did not obey.
Rom 10:4 For Messiah is the goal1 of the ‘Torah unto righteousness’to
everyone who believes. Footnote: 1Or end purpose; not termination.
Rom 10:5 For Mosheh writes about the righteousness which is of the Torah, “The
man who does these shall live by them.”
Rom 10:6 But the righteousness of belief speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who shall ascend
into the heavens?’ ” – that is, to bring Messiah down; or,
Rom 10:7 “Who shall descend into the abyss?’ ” – that is, to bring Messiah up
from the dead.
Rom 10:8 But what does it say? “The word
is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” – that is, the word of belief which we are proclaiming:
Rom 10:9 That if you confess with your mouth the Master יהושע and
believe in your heart that Elohim has raised Him from the dead, you shall be
saved.
Rom
10:10 for with the heart one
believes unto righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, and so is saved.
The righteousness which is of the Torah (verse 5). We
read what YeshaYahu (Isaiah) write:
Isa 51:7 “Listen to Me, you who know
righteousness, a people in whose
heart is My Torah: do not fear the reproach of men, nor be afraid of their
revilings.
Life and good, death and evil, (verse15) is what Moshe old
the children of Israel
Deu 11:26 ‘See, I am setting before you today
a blessing and a curse:
Deu 11:27 the blessing, when you obey the
commands of יהוה your Elohim which I command
you today;
Deu
11:28 and the curse, if you do not obey the commands of יהוה
your Elohim, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after
other mighty ones which you have not known.
Deu 30:16 in that I am commanding you today to love יהוה
your Elohim, to walk in His ways, and to guard His commands, and His laws, and
His right-rulings. And you shall live and increase, and יהוה your
Elohim shall bless you in the land which you go to possess.
Deu
30:17 “But if your heart turns away, and
you do not obey, and shall be drawn away, and shall bow down to other mighty
ones and serve them,
Deu
30:18 “I have declared to you today that
you shall certainly perish, you shall not prolong your days in the land which
you are passing over the Yardĕn to enter and possess.
Deu
30:19 “I have called the heavens and the earth as witnesses today against you: I
have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. Therefore you
shall choose life, so that you live, both you and your seed,
Deu
30:20 to love יהוה
your Elohim, to obey His voice, and to cling to Him – for He is your life and
the length of your days – to dwell in the land which יהוה
swore to your fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give them.”
Verses 16-20 To call the heavens and the earth is to
establish by two witnesses what has been said.
Deu 19:15 “One witness does not rise up against a man concerning any crookedness
or any sin that he commits. At the mouth
of two witnesses or at the mouth of three witnesses a matter is
established.
Verse 20. Yehoshua says in Yocha. 14:15 If you love me
keep my commandments.
Yochanan
write also in 1st Yoch./John:
1Jn 2:3 and by this we know that we know Him, if we guard His commands.1 Footnote:
1Jn 5:3 for this is the
love for Elohim, that we guard His commands,1 and His
commands are not heavy, Footnote: 1See
5:2, 2 John v. 6, John 14:15.
1Jn 5:2 By this we know that we love the children of
Elohim, when we love Elohim and guard
His commands.
Parsha Vayelech
Deu 31:1 and Mosheh went and spoke these words to all
Yisra’ĕl,
Deu 31:2 and he said to them, “I am one
hundred and twenty years old today. I am no longer able to go out and come
in. And יהוה has said to me, ‘You do not
pass over this Yardĕn.’
Moshe tells the Children of Israel,
his time is now fulfilled and they will see him no more. It is also an allegory
referring to Noach in B’reshit chapter 6:
Gen 6:3 and יהוה
said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever in his going astray. He is
flesh, and his days shall be one hundred
and twenty years.”
We have seen in
the “parsah Noach” that יהוה was not speaking of the age of individuals on earth,
because Moshe write:
Psa 90:1 A PrayerH8605 of MosesH4872 the manH376 of God.H430 יהוה,H136
thouH859 hast beenH1961 our dwelling placeH4583 in all generations.H1755 H1755
Psa 90:10 the
days of our lives are seventy years; Or if due to strength, eighty
years, Yet the best of them is but toil and exertion; For it is soon
cut off, and we fly away.
The Hebrew word
used in Noach’s text is Strong’s #H8141 שׁנה
shâneh shaw-neh','
(The first form being in plural only, the second form being feminine); from H8138; a year (as a revolution of time): -
+ whole age, X long, + old, year (X -ly).
The
understanding of it is together with the Yovel
year (Jubilee) (120 X 50 the time of the Yovel brings us to 6000
years).After 120 Yovel the time of
man under this form will be 6000 years. I know that some disagree with this
statement because it is also say that the Yovel is weven time seven years and
the fiftieth year is proclaims to be the Yovel
year. If you can explain why then Moshe write in Psalm 90 that the days of
man on earth are seventy or eighty, let me know!
Deu
31:3 “יהוה
your Elohim Himself is passing over before you. He shall destroy these nations
from before you and you possess them. Yehoshua
himself is passing over before you, as יהוה
has spoken.
“Yehoshua is passing before you”, the name in
Hebrew is written יהושׁוּע exactly like the name of our
master
Luk 1:31 “And see, you shall conceive in your womb,
and shall give birth to a Son, and call His Name יהושע.1 Footnote: 1Mt.
1:21.
Why then is it
that in the Tanak (O.T) we read
Yohushua or Yehushua and we pronounce Yehoshua the name of our Master. The true
is that “Yohushua” was an antitype of
our Master when entering the Promise
Land” he was foreshadowing what will be when our Master Yehoshua will bring
us to our Land, once the spiritual Yericho
will fall down.
Deu
31:4 “And יהוה
shall do to them as He did to Siḥon and to Oḡ, the sovereigns of the Amorites
and their land, when He destroyed them.
Deu
31:5 “And יהוה
shall give them over to you, and you shall do to them according to all the
command which I have commanded you.
Deu
31:6 “Be strong and courageous, do not fear nor be afraid of them. For it
is יהוה your Elohim who is going with
you. He does not fail you nor forsake you.”
This is called “Faith” “emunah” in Hebrew to trust
Deu
31:7 and Mosheh called
Yehoshua and said to him before the eyes of all Yisra’ĕl, “Be strong and
courageous, for you are going with this people to the land which יהוה
has sworn to their fathers to give them, and you are to let them inherit it.
Deu
31:8 “And it is יהוה
who is going before you, He Himself is
with you. He does not fail you nor forsake you. Do not fear nor be
discouraged.”
Moshe comfort Yohushua and tells him that יהוה is he who goes before him therefore he doesn’t have
to worry. Yohushua was faithful to יהוה
and Moshe all his life as was Yehoshua Messiah.
Deu
31:9 and Mosheh wrote this
Torah and gave it to the priests, the sons of Lĕwi, who bore the ark of the
covenant of יהוה, and to all the elders of
Yisra’ĕl.
Deu
31:10 and Mosheh commanded
them, saying, “At the end of seven
years, at the appointed time, the year of release, at the Festival of Booths,
Deu
31:11 when all Yisra’ĕl comes
to appear before יהוה your
Elohim in the place which He chooses,
read this Torah before all Yisra’ĕl in their hearing.
We have seen that the place
which יהוה
choose to put His Name is Yerushalayim:
1Ki 11:36 and unto his son will I give one tribe, that
David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there.
Deu 31:12 “Assemble the people, the men and the women and
the little ones, and your sojourner who is within your gates, so that they hear,
and so that they learn to fear יהוה your
Elohim and guard to do all the Words of
this Torah.
Deu
31:13 “And their children, who have not known it, should hear and learn to
fear יהוה your
Elohim as long as you live in the land you are passing over the Yardĕn to
possess.”
To year and
learn is part of the instruction to the children. How can a child learn if he
doesn’t hear the Torah?
Deu 6:6 and these words, which I command thee this
day, shall be in thine heart:
Deu 6:7 and
thou shalt teach them diligently unto
thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house,
and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou
risest up.
Psa 111:10 The
fear of YHWH is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his
praise endureth for ever.
Deu 31:14 and יהוה said
to Mosheh, “See, the days have drawn near for you to die. Call Yehoshua, and
present yourselves in the Tent of Meeting, so that I command him.” And Mosheh
and Yehoshua went and presented themselves in the Tent of Meeting.
Deu
31:15 and יהוה
appeared at the Tent in a column
of a cloud, and the column of a cloud stood above the door of the Tent.
Deu
31:16 and יהוה
said to Mosheh, “See, you are about to sleep with your fathers. and this people shall rise and whore after the
mighty ones of the strangers of the land into the midst of which they shall
enter, and forsake Me and break My covenant which I have made with them.
יהוה
is already warning the Children of Israel (carnal man) about what they and
their descendants will do in spite of His faithfulness to bring them to the
promise Land. The forty years in the wilderness has brought nothing in the
heart of the people, there is no change because of the hardness of their heart.
How is it today, do you think people all around the
world, for many direct descendants from the House of Ya’acov have the same
heart as their forefathers and their faith is in their statues, their idols, “Mary” and the “saints” in the Roman Catholic Church. I have met many of them with
their statues in their house, but when it comes to trust יהוה
they will tell you that you are out of mind. I met some few weeks ago for now
we see in the TV almost every day warning against the “swine flu” the governments of the world are making campaign to
vaccine the people in mass. They say that it is to “prevent” for a “pandemic”. In
France
Psa 91:1 He
that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Psa 91:2 I will say of YHWH, He is my refuge and my fortress: my Elohim; in him will I trust.
Psa 91:3 Surely
he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome
pestilence.
Psa 91:4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his
truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Psa 91:5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow
that flieth by day;
Psa 91:6 nor for
the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
Psa 91:7 a thousand
shall fall at thy side, and ten
thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Psa 91:8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see
the reward of the wicked.
Psa 91:9 because thou hast made YHWH, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
Psa 91:10 There shall no evil befall thee,
neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
Psa 91:11 for he shall give his angels charge over thee,
to keep thee in all thy ways.
Psa 91:12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest
thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Psa 91:13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the
young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
Psa 91:14 Because he hath set his love upon
me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known
my name.
Psa 91:15 He shall call upon me, and I will
answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I
will deliver him, and honour him.
Psa 91:16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him
my salvation.
Are you
dwelling in the secret place of the Most High, have you made Him your refuge,
your fortress? If your answer is yes, then you don’t have to worry for plagues
or pestilences because they will not come close to you, because the angels
(messengers) of יהוה are in charge over you
because you call upon His Name יהוה
daily, in the morning (read psalm 100) when you get up, with praise in your
lips, and before your go to sleep with singing in your heart, therefore he
answer you in time of trouble and deliver you. Hallelu – Yah!
We should have this psalm in our heart, for when the
storm comes, it is our “water of life”.
The world look for
man medicine, but those who know יהוה will
lift up their eyes unto him and trust in His word. For those walking in the
steps of Messiah Yehoshua, they have no fear:
Deu
31:17 “Then My displeasure shall burn against them in
that day, and I shall forsake them and hide My face from them, and they
shall be consumed. And many evils and
distresses shall come upon them, and it shall be said in that day, ‘Is it
not because our Elohim is not in our midst that these evils have come upon us?’
The Yehudin, have suffered the last two thousand years
because of יהוה wrath. Today it is very
difficult to say anything concerning the suffering of our brethren from Yehuda “Jews” without been stamped to be “anti-Semite”. If you look carefully
through the History you will see that during the last WWII more than two
millions Yehudin (Jews) died in the
Holocaust, that is fact, but nobody is revolted that more then fifty (50)
millions people died throughout Europe in the
same period! It amazes me, because who knows who these people were, who were
their ancestors? Yes of course for our brethren they were marked as “Jews” an easy
identifiable, but the others, French, Belgium , German or Polish, or even Russia Japan
like in the Philippines
יהוה cares for He is the one in
control of the universe:
Psa 24:1 The
earth is YHWH's, and the fulness
thereof; the world, and they that dwell
therein.
Yehoshua tells
us:
Mat 10:29 are not two sparrows sold for a farthing?
and one of them shall not fall on the
ground without your Father.(intended “knowing
it” as it has been add by Origen)
Luk 12:7 but even
the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of
more value than many sparrows.
Deu
31:18 “And I shall certainly hide My face in that day, because of all the evil
which they have done, for they shall turn to other mighty ones.
Deu
31:19 “And now write down this
song for yourselves, and teach it to the children of Yisra’ĕl. Put it in their
mouths, so that this song is to Me for a witness against the children of
Yisra’ĕl.
Deu
31:20 “And I shall bring them
to the land flowing with milk and honey, of which I swore to their fathers, and
they shall eat and be satisfied and be fat, then they shall turn to other
mighty ones, and they shall serve them, and scorn Me and break My covenant.
Deu
31:21 “And it shall be, when many evils and distresses come upon them, that this
song shall answer before them as a witness. For it is not to be forgotten
in the mouths of their seed, for I know their thoughts which they are forming
today, even before I bring them to the land of which I swore to give them.”
Deu
31:22 and Mosheh wrote this
song the same day, and taught it to the children of Yisra’ĕl.
Deu
31:23 and He commanded Yehoshua
son of Nun, and said, “Be strong and courageous, for you are to bring the
children of Yisra’ĕl into the land of which I swore to them, and I Myself am
with you.”
Deu
31:24 and it came to be, when
Mosheh had completed writing the Words of this Torah in a book, until their
completion,
Deu
31:25 that Mosheh commanded the
Lĕwites, who bore the ark of the covenant of יהוה,
saying,
Deu
31:26 “Take this Book of the Torah, and you shall place
it beside the ark of the covenant of יהוה your
Elohim, and it shall be there as a witness against you,
The Ark
We see here that there was no “New Testament”, beside the ark but the Torah of Moshe to be
witness against the rebellion of the Children of Israel. We have seen also that
יהוה intention was to “chadash”,
renew the Covenant he did with the fathers to the Children by sending Yehoshua
Messiah, why then the Torah should be abolish? No way has the same witness
remains against those rejecting the truth;
Joh 5:45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the
Father: there is one that accuseth you,
even Moses, in whom ye trust.
Joh 5:46 for had ye believed Moses, ye would have
believed me: for he wrote of me.
How can Moshe accuse the people? The Torah he wrote stand
against the people.
Act 26:22 Having therefore obtained help of YHWH, I
continue unto this day, witnessing
both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should
come:
Deu
31:27 for I myself know your
rebellion and your stiff neck. See, while I am still alive with you today, you
have been rebellious against יהוה,
then how much more after my death?
Deu
31:28 “Assemble unto me all the
elders of your tribes, and your officers, so that I speak these words in their
hearing and call the heavens and the earth to witness against them.
Deu
31:29 “For I know that after my
death you shall do very corruptly and turn aside from the way which I have
commanded you. And evil shall come to
you in the latter days, because you do what is evil in the eyes of יהוה,
to provoke Him through the work of your hands.”
The latter days are
know to be the time starting with the coming of Yehoshua:
Heb 1:2 Hath in these
last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all
things, by whom also he made the worlds;
2Pe 3:3 knowing this first: that mockers shall come in the last days with mocking, walking
according to their own lusts,
2Ti 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
Hos 9:7 The days of visitation are come, the days of
recompence are come; Israel
Deu 31:30 so Mosheh spoke in the hearing of all the assembly
of Yisra’ĕl the words of this song till
their completion:
Haftorah
In the
chapter 61 and 62, the prophet Yeshayahu (Jeremia) speaks of the future
restoration of Israel
The chapter
63 speaks again of the punishment of those who disobey:
Isa 61:10 I greatly rejoice in יהוה, my
being exults in my Elohim. For He has put garments of deliverance on me, He has
covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with
ornaments, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
Isa
61:11 for as the earth brings forth its
bud, as the garden causes the seed to shoot up, so the Master יהוה
causes righteousness and praise to shoot up before all the nations!
Isa 62:1 for Tsiyon’s sake I am not silent, and for
Yerushalayim’s sake I do not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,
and her deliverance as a lamp that burns.
Isa 62:2 and the nations shall
see your righteousness, and all sovereigns your esteem. And you shall be called
by a new name, which the mouth of יהוה
designates.
Isa
62:3 and you shall be a crown of comeliness
in the hand of יהוה, and a royal head-dress in
the hand of your Elohim.
Isa
62:4 No longer are you called “Forsaken,”
and no longer is your land called “Deserted.” But you shall be called
“Ḥephtsiḇah,” (my delight) and your land “Married,” for יהוה
shall delight in you, and your land be married.
Isa
62:5 for as a young man marries a maiden,
so shall your sons marry you. And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so
shall your Elohim rejoice over you.
Isa
62:6 I have set watchmen on your walls, O
Yerushalayim, all the day and all the night, continually, who are not silent.
You who remember יהוה,
give yourselves no rest,
Isa
62:7 and give Him no rest till He
establishes and till He makes Yerushalayim a praise in the earth.
Isa
62:8 יהוה has sworn by His right hand
and by the arm of His strength, “No more do I give your grain to be food for
your enemies, nor do sons of the foreigner drink your new wine, for which you
have labored;
Isa
62:9 but those gathering it shall eat it,
and praise יהוה. And those collecting it
shall drink it in My set-apart courts.”
Isa
62:10 Pass through, pass through the
gates! Prepare the way for the people. Build up, build up the highway! Remove
the stones. Lift up a banner for the peoples!
Banner:
Strong’s #H5251 נס nês nace nun, samech
From H5264; a flag; also a sail; by
implication a flagstaff; generally a signal; figuratively a token:
- banner, pole, sail, (en-) sign, standard.
Lawrence Nathan
gives following explanations:
Lift up a standard. The Hebrew word for standard is
nec, pronounced nace (Strong’s
H5251/TWOT 1379a)
meaning signal pole, banner, ensign,
sign or sail. According
to The Theological Dictionary of the
Old Testament, nec generally
means a rallying point or standard, which drew people together for some common
action or for the communication of important information. This usually happened
at a high or conspicuous place within the camp or community. There, a signal
pole, sometimes with an ensign attached, would be raised as a point of focus or
object of hope. In Exodus 17:15, we discover that one of YHVH’s covenant names
is YHVH-Nissi or YHVH
Our Banner. Isaiah
prophetically declares that Yeshua, the Root of Jesse, would be “an ensign to
the nations” (Isa. 11:10)
Isa 11:10 and in that day there shall be the Root of
Jesse standing for a banner of the people; to Him the nations shall seek; and
His resting place shall be glorious.
signifying the lifting up of Israel Zion (the land of
Israel ) signalling their return to Israel Israel
Isa 62:11 See, יהוה has
proclaimed to the end of the earth: “Say to the daughter of Tsiyon, ‘See, your
deliverance has come; see, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him.’ ”
Isa
62:12 and they shall be called, “The
Set-apart People, the Redeemed of יהוה.”
And you shall be called, “Sought Out, a City Not Forsaken.”
Isa 63:1 Who is this coming from Eḏom, with garments of glowing colours from Botsrah,
who is robed in splendour, striding forward in the greatness of His strength?
“It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”
Once again Lawrence Nathan gives an
interesting insight.
Who is Edom Israel of Edom ’s
perpetual hatred and persecution of Israel Edom land of Israel Israel Edom
Isa 63:2 Why is there red on Your raiment,
and Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?
Isa 63:3 “I
have trodden the winepress alone, and from the peoples no one was with Me. And
I trod them down in My displeasure, and I trampled them in My wrath. Their
blood is sprinkled upon My garments, and I have defiled all My raiment.
Isa 63:4 “For
a day of vengeance is in My heart, and
the year of My redeemed has come.
Isa 63:5 “And
I looked, but there was none helping, and I was astonished that there was none
upholding. So My own arm saved for Me, and My wrath upheld Me.
Isa 63:6 “And
I trod down peoples in My displeasure,
and made them drunk in My wrath, and brought down their strength to earth.”
Isa 63:7 Let
me recount the kindnesses of יהוה and the praises of יהוה,
according to all that יהוה has
done for us, and the great goodness toward the house of Yisra’ĕl, which He has
done for them according to His compassion, and according to His many kindnesses.
Isa
63:8 and He said, “They are My people,
children who do not act falsely.” And He became their Saviour.
Isa
63:9 In all their distress He was
distressed, and the Messenger of His Presence saved them. In His love and in
His compassion He redeemed them, and He lifted them up and carried them all the
days of old.
Matthew
Henry comment this verses from chapter 63:1-9 as following and make the right
connection with the vision from Yochanan in the book of Revelation.
Isa 63:1-6
The prophet, in vision, beholds the
Messiah returning in triumph from the conquest of his enemies, of whom Edom
For better
understanding on the Wine press during the punishment read the full chapter of
Yo’el (Joel) 3.
Mic 7:18 Who
is an Ěl like You – taking away crookedness and passing over the transgression
of the remnant of His inheritance? He shall not retain His wrath forever, for
He Himself delights in kindness.
Mic 7:19 He
shall turn back, He shall have compassion on us, He shall trample upon our
crookednesses! And You throw all our sins into the depths of the sea!
Mic 7:20 You
give truth to Yaʽaqoḇ, kindness to Aḇraham, which You swore to our fathers
from the days of old!
Joe 2:15 Blow a ram’s horn in Tsiyon, set apart a
fast, call an assembly.
Joe 2:16 Gather
the people, set the assembly apart, assemble the elders, gather the children
and nursing babes. Let a bridegroom come out from his room, and a bride from
her dressing room.
Joe 2:17 Let
the priests, servants of יהוה, weep between the porch and
the altar. And let them say, “Spare Your people, O יהוה,
and do not give Your inheritance to reproach, for the gentiles to rule over
them. Why should they say among the peoples, ‘Where is their Elohim?’ ”
Joe
2:18 and let יהוה
be jealous for His land, and spare His people.
Joe
2:19 and let יהוה
answer and say to His people, “See, I am sending you the grain and the new wine
and the oil, and you shall be satisfied by them. And no longer do I make you a
reproach among the gentiles.
Joe
2:20 “And the Northerner I shall remove
far from you, and drive him away into a dry and deserted land, with his face
toward the eastern sea and his rear toward the western sea. And his stench
shall come up and his smell rise, for he has done greatly.”
Joe
2:21 Do not fear, O soil, be glad and
rejoice, for יהוה has done greatly!
Joe
2:22 Do not fear, you beasts of the
field, for the pastures of the wilderness shall spring forth, and the tree
shall bear its fruit, the fig tree and the vine shall yield their strength.
Joe
2:23 and you children of Tsiyon, be glad
and rejoice in יהוה your Elohim, for He shall
give you the Teacher of Righteousness, and cause the rain to come down for you,
the former rain and the latter rain, as before.
Joe
2:24 and the threshing-floors shall be
filled with grain, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.
Joe
2:25 “Then I shall repay you the years
that the swarming locust has eaten, the crawling locust, and the consuming
locust, and the gnawing locust, My great army which I sent among you.
Joe
2:26 “Then you shall eat – eat and be
satisfied – and shall praise the Name of יהוה your
Elohim, who has done with you so wondrously. And My people shall never be put
to shame.
Joe
2:27 “And you shall know that I am in the
midst of Yisra’ĕl1, and that I am יהוה
your Elohim and there is no one else. And My
people shall never be put to shame. Footnote:
1See Isa. 24:23.
Rom 10:1 Truly brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer
to Elohim for Yisra’ĕl is for deliverance.
Rom 10:2 For
I bear them witness that they have an ardour for Elohim, but not according to
knowledge.
Rom 10:3 For not knowing the righteousness of Elohim, and seeking to
establish their own righteousness, they did not subject themselves to1
the righteousness of Elohim. Footnote: 1Or
did not obey.
Rom 10:4 For Messiah is the
goal1 of
the ‘Torah unto righteousness’to everyone who believes. Footnote: 1Or end purpose; not termination.
Rom 10:5 for
Mosheh writes about the righteousness which is of the Torah, “The man who does
these shall live by them.”
Rom 10:6 but
the righteousness of belief speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who
shall ascend into the heavens?’ ” – that is, to bring Messiah down; or,
Rom 10:7 “
‘Who shall descend into the abyss?’ ” – that is, to bring Messiah up from the
dead.
Rom 10:8 But
what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” –
that is, the word of belief which we are proclaiming:
Rom 10:9 That
if you confess with your mouth the
Master יהושע and believe in
your heart that Elohim has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.
Rom
10:10 for with the heart one believes unto
righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, and so is saved.
Rom
10:11 Because the Scripture says, “Whoever
puts his trust in Him shall not be put to shame.”
Rom
10:12 because there is no distinction
between Yehuḏite and Greek, for the same Master of all is rich to all those
calling upon Him.
Rom
10:13 For “everyone who calls on the Name
of יהוה shall be saved.”
Col 3:12 Therefore, as chosen ones of Elohim,
set-apart and beloved, put on compassion, kindness, humbleness of mind,
meekness, patience,
Col 3:13 bearing
with one another, and forgiving each other if anyone has a complaint against
another, indeed, as Messiah forgave you so also should you.
Col 3:14 But
above all these put on love,
which is a bond of the perfection.
