Matthew 6:1 Take heed that you do not give alms before men, to be seen of
them: otherwise you have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when you do your alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as
the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have
glory of men. Verily I say unto you, they have their reward.
3 But when you do alms, let not your left hand know what your right hand
does:
4 That your alms may be in secret: and your Father which sees in secret
himself shall reward you openly.
1 Timothy 5:17 The elders who direct the affairs of the church well are

Authors Foreword
The purpose of this book is the restoration of things the Scriptures tell us
must come to be in the last days for the restoration of the kingdom of
Yisrael. They need to be restored because there has been a great falling away
from what Yahshua taught. This is mainly due to people not understanding
Paul’s writings and the cultural issues he was addressing. This has led to the
“lies we have inherited from our fathers”. Not being able to see this is a
result of a partial blindness for a season and for a reason; that season is
coming to a close and the spirit of Eliyahu (Elijah) is upon the face of the
earth.
My style of teaching is through repetition, and emphasis by underlining,

using bold, italics and/or combinations of them to show where the Words of
Scripture impressed me through the leading of the Ruach Kodesh. I try to
use more Scripture, than my comments, and as many ‘witnesses’ from other
Scripture. “Let all matters be established in the mouth of two or three
witnesses”
Also I strongly feel Scripture cannot contradict Scripture! If we perceive
the meaning of a passage and it flies in the face of Torah we have to
reconcile our understanding to have all our doctrine affirm all precepts of
Scripture.
Please enter this work prayerfully asking the Ruach Kodesh to guide you
in all His truth. I am on a journey seeking His will, the same as many others.
I do not claim I know it all, by far! But I am humble enough to accept
righteous correction via Scripture, rightly understood. (With other witnesses
from Scripture, that does not contradict Scripture). You can contact me at
[email protected], if you have righteous correction. I have decided
to remain anonymous because this is not really my teaching but the guiding
of the Ruach Kodesh over the last fifteen years.

Preface
The Beginning of The Restoration of All Things is about the things that
need to be restored to their rightful place before the Kingdom of Yisrael can
be restored. (Acts 1:6 ff.
Acts 1:6 “Master, are You at this time going to restore the Kingdom to
Yisrael?"
The need for restoration is due to a great falling away that was
prophesized in 2 Thessalonians 2:3. All this is from YHVH, as part of His
plan, there is no ‘chance’ or ‘coincidence’.
2 Thessalonians 2:1 Concerning the coming of our Master Yahshua ha

Moshiach and our being gathered to Him, we ask you, brothers,
2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by some prophecy, report or
letter supposed to have come from us, saying that the day of the Master has
already come.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except
there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of
lawlessness. (Torah-lessness)
This falling away from Torah has been going on for about 1,900 years.
The Apostle John writes in 1John 2:18-19, 26 that this was already starting
in his days (About 90 AD).
The message of “the times of refreshing” and “the times of restitution of
all things which YHVH has spoken of by His Holy prophets” was preached
by Peter in Acts chapter 3; but the “falling away” and the time of “until the
full number of Gentiles has come in” had to precede the restoration.
I submit to you that the Gospel has been taken to every corner of the
world and the spirit of Eliyahu (Elijah) is working in our days.
This restoration covers thing as diverse as our Hebrew roots, to what

exactly is the covenant of YHVH, His sacred Name being substituted almost
eight thousand times with the title of a false mighty one, His Sabbath, Torah,
New covenant, two house chronology, dispersion, re-gathering, Yahshua’s
real mission, a smattering of end times/latter days and the misunderstanding
of Paul.

In this book I use terms that you may not be familiar with, but as you read
and learn will understand why they are used. Our heavenly Father is called
by the transliterated Hebrew letters of YHVH as they appear almost eight
thousand times in the original language they were written. Although I know
it is not a proper Hebrew name, I use Yahshua for Jesus, because of John
5:43:
John 5:43 I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me;
but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.
We know at least the first part of YHVH’s name is ‘Yah’, so Yeshua just
doesn’t cut it. Who knows maybe He was the only one who took the name of
Yahshua, to fulfill: “There is only one Name by which man may receive
salvation”. The original passage in Joel 2:32 has “everyone who calls upon
the Name of YHVH” and is the basis of my putting ‘Yah’ in place of ‘Yes’.
Rather than elaborate here on my reasons for reverting to the original

Hebrew, Elohim, which means ‘mighty one’, instead of using ‘God’, the
English word used to translate it, I’ll defer to the chapter on ‘Names and
Titles’ for the reasons.
Another Hebrew term used is ‘Ruach Kodesh’ which is the Holy Spirit.
I do not condemn anyone who does not use any of these names or terms
for where they are in their walk. The purpose is to educate people how the
Scriptures have impressed me of what is important to YHVH compared to
where the Body is today.
I use Yisrael to refer to Jacob, his offspring and the original nation settled
by his descendants to differentiate between them and the modern nation of
Israel. The Scriptures often refers to the Northern Ten Tribes, from here out
referred to as NTT, as Yisrael, and sometimes Ephraim. Judah is part of
Yisrael but is usually referred to as Judah, though not always.
Some teachings may seem redundant because of many repetitions but it is

intended, for my style of teaching is to use repetition with emphasis of upper
case letters, larger fonts, underlining, bold, italics and combinations of these.
If you think back to elementary school we learned spelling by writing out
the words many times; it is a proven method.

This book is in PDF format so it can be copied and sent to your desktop to
read, because I doubt there are few who will read it in one sitting. If you
plan to print it, know now that it is at least 260 pages in 14 point Microsoft
Word at this stage in editing!
A lot of this will sound far fetched to many who refuse to see what
Scripture says versus church doctrines and will think I’m a nut case. It
doesn’t bother me at all because I ‘know’ who I serve and what His Word
tells us about ‘He has told us the end ……. from the beginning’.
I do not expect to find the majority (those relying heavily on church

doctrine) agreeing because their way is the wide road and many there are
upon it. The gate is small (Yahshua), His road is narrow (following His
teachings), and few there will be upon it! It veers neither to the right or left.
Remember the Religious leaders prosecuted and ridiculed Yahshua, as

they always did the Prophets, who have always stated His Truth; sometimes
plainly but often in parables or acted out in similitude. If you love Him and
really have a heart for Him, read on. May His Spirit guide you in all His
Truth.

Exploring the
Hebrew Sources
of Faith
The New Testament is known today as a Greek book, but

much of it was originally written in Hebrew by the Jewish
disciples of Yeshua ("Jesus" in Hebrew) nearly 2000 years
ago. According to the Book of Acts, Yeshua himself spoke
Hebrew. In Acts 26 Paul tells about the vision Paul he had
on the road to Damascus:
I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining
around me and my companions. When we had all fallen to
the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew
language, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It hurts
you to kick against the goads.' (Acts 26:12-14)
It would have been just as natural for Yeshua to speak to
Paul in Greek. After all, Yeshua certainly knew Greek and
Paul was a totally Hellenized Jew who had received Roman
citizenship. The fact Yeshua decided to speak to Paul in
Hebrew testifies to the importance of Hebrew as the
language of revelation. Paul himself preached to the Jews in
Hebrew as reported in Acts 21:
When he had given him permission, Paul stood on the steps
and motioned to the people for silence; and when there was
10
a great hush, he addressed them in the Hebrew language
(Acts 21:40)
New Testament scholars have long known that the Greek of
the Greek of the New Testament has a strong Hebraic
character to it. Most grammars of New Testament Greek
contain an entire category known as Hebraisms which are
Hebraic thought patterns translated very literally into Greek.
Five books of the New Testament in particular contain a
large number of Hebraisms leaving little doubt they were
either written in Hebrew or translated from Hebrew sources.
These five books are: Matthew, Mark, Luke, Acts and
Revelation. The Hebraisms in these books proves that
Yeshua and his original disciples preached in Hebrew and
even more importantly that their words were recorded in
Hebrew.

Basic Scripture Study 101
Isaiah 28:9-10 "Who is it he is trying to teach? To whom is he explaining his
message? To children weaned from their milk, to those just taken from the breast?
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line,
line upon line; here a little, and there a little
10 For precept must be upon precept
All precepts in this study are based on precept # 6, that there must be at
least two or three witnesses to establish any matter.
PRECEPT # 1 YHVH CANNOT/ WILL NOT Change
Malachi 3:6
For I am YHVH, I change not; therefore you sons of Jacob are not
consumed.
Psalms 33:11 But the plans of YHVH stand firm forever, the purposes of
His heart through all generations.
Psalms 89:34
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of My lips.
Psalms 102:27
But You are the same, and Your years shall have no end.
Psalms 111:9
He sent redemption unto His people: He has commanded His covenant for
ever: Holy and reverenced is His Name.
Hebrews 1:12
And as a vesture shall You fold them up, and they shall be changed: but
You are the same, and Your years shall not fail.
Hebrews 13:8
Yahshua the Messiah is the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
12
PRECEPT # 2 YHVH has told us the end from the beginning.
Amos 3:7
Surely YHVH Elohim will do nothing, but He reveals His secret unto his
servants the prophets.
Genesis 6:13
And Elohim said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before Me; for the
earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them
with the earth.
Genesis 18:17
And YHVH said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
Isaiah 42:9
Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare:
before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Isaiah 44:7-8
And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for Me,
since I appointed the ancient people? And the things that are coming, and
shall come, let them show unto them.
8. Fear not, neither be afraid: have I not told you from that time, and have
declared it? You are even My witnesses. Is there an Elohim beside Me? Yea,
there is no Elohim; I know not any.
Psalms 25:14
The secret of YHVH is with them that fear (revere) Him; and He will show
them His covenant.
Because of precept #2 we can find the Renewed Covenant is hidden

(because it was a secret or mystery, re: Amos 3:7 above) in the writings of
the Prophets:
Jeremiah 33:14
Behold, the days come, says YHVH, that I will perform that good thing
which I have promised unto the house of Yisrael and to the house of Judah.
13
Jeremiah 31:31
Behold, the days come, says YHVH, that I will make a new covenant with
the house of Yisrael, and with the house of Judah
Jeremiah 32:40
And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn
away from them, to do them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts, that
they shall not depart from Me.
Jeremiah 31:33
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Yisrael;
After those days, says YHVH, I will put My Torah in their inward parts,
and write it in their hearts; and will be their Elohim, and they shall be My
people.
Jeremiah 31:34
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his
brother, saying, ‘Know YHVH’: for they shall all know Me, from the least
of them unto the greatest of them, says YHVH: for I will forgive their
iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Ezekiel 11:19-20
And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I
will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of
flesh:
20. That they may walk in My statutes, and keep My ordinances, and do
them: and they shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim.
Ezekiel 36:26-29
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I
will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart
of flesh.
27. And I will put My spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My
statutes, and you shall keep My judgments, and do them.
14
PRECEPT # 3 There will be a re-gathering of both houses of
Yisrael back to the land promised to Avraham, Isaac and
Jacob.
There are many, many ‘witnesses’ to this fact, which is a whole study in
itself. (See the chapter on The Re-gathering).
28. And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and you
shall be My people, and I will be your Elohim.
29. I will also save you from all your uncleannesses (defilements)
Do you know how you become defiled or ‘unclean’? (See chapter on Holy or Set-apart)
Ezekiel 11:21
But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their detestable things
and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads,
says YHVH Elohim.
What is detestable or an abomination to YHVH? These are foundational

teachings laid out for us long ago in the Torah to show us what is acceptable
and proper to YHVH and what is not! What foundation have you built upon?
Luke 6:48 He is like a man building a house, who dug and went deep, and
laid a foundation upon the Rock: and when a flood arose, the stream broke
against that house, and could not shake it: because it had been well built.
49 But the one who hears My words and does not put them into practice
is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The
moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was
complete."
"He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
As YHVH is bound to His Word, He cannot lie, He is the same yesterday,

today, tomorrow and forever, He does NOT CHANGE, so His commands
(Word) reveal His character to us: Righteous, Merciful and Just.
PRECEPT # 4 YHVH does not lie.

(This is actually a continuation of precept #1)
15
1 Samuel 15:29
And also the Strength of Yisrael will not lie nor turn back: for He is not a
man that He should repent.
Numbers 23:19
Elohim is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He
should repent (change) : has He said, and shall He not do it? Or has He
spoken, and shall He not make it good?
Malachi 3:6
consumed.
Titus 1:2
In hope of eternal life, which Elohim, that cannot lie, promised before the
world began;
Ezekiel 24:14
I YHVH have spoken it: it shall come to pass, and I will do it; I will not go
back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent (change); according to your
ways, and according to your doings, shall they judge you, says YHVH
Elohim.
PRECEPT # 5 There will be a judgment and you will be

judged
Ezekiel 24:14 ff
according to your ways, and according to your doings, shall they judge
you, says YHVH Elohim.
Ezekiel 33:20 Yet, O house of Yisrael, you say, `The way of YHVH is not
just.' But I will judge each of you according to his own ways."
I have 15 more ‘witnesses’: Isaiah 2:4, 3:3, 11:4, 33:22, 51:5, Ezk. 5:11,
7:3,4 8,9 & 27, 8:18, 9:10, 11:10ff, 18:30, Joel 3:12, Micah 4:3. I am sure
there are many more also!
16
Who is Yahshua?
John 1:1-2
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the
Word was Elohim.
2. The same was in the beginning with Elohim.
John 1: 14
The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen
His glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of
Grace and Truth.
The word of YHVH had been so messed up, perverted and twisted by man
that The Word had to come to show us the spirit of the law; for the letter of
the law without the spirit of the law can truly ‘kill’; because without the
Spirit one is doing ‘dead works’. Mark 7:7 But in vain do they worship Me,
Teaching as their doctrines the precepts of men. Read Jeremiah 16n19. This
pertains to both houses! For without the spirit of Torah Yisrael cannot walk
in Torah as YHVH wants us to.
PRECEPT # 6 All things are to be established by two or three

witnesses
As we are not to put to death anyone except by the word of two or three
witnesses for any wrong doing that carries the death penalty, the same
principle applies to what Scripture says about our eternal life i.e. ‘any
doctrine that is a salvational issue (concerning your eternal life or death) will
have at least two or three witnesses in Scripture.’ I have a strong feeling that
the more times a subject is mentioned the more importance YHVH attaches
to it.
Deuteronomy 19:15
One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin,
in any sin that he sins: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of
three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
Numbers 35:30
Whoso kills any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of
witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him
to die.
17
Deuteronomy 17:6-7
At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of
death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to
death.
7. The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death,
and afterward the hands of all the people. So you shall put the evil away
from among you.
PRECEPT # 7 Judgment will result in living with YHVH or

death (separation from Him)
Ezekiel 33:18
If a righteous man turns from his righteousness and does evil, he will die for it.
Ezekiel 33:19
But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and
right, he shall live for doing it.
Ezekiel 18:5-9
But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
6. And has not eaten upon the mountains, neither has lifted up his eyes to
the idols of the house of Yisrael, neither has defiled his neighbor’s wife,
neither has come near to a menstruous woman,
7. And has not oppressed any, but has restored to the debtor his pledge, has
spoiled none by violence, has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered
the naked with a garment;
8. He that has not given lent at interest, neither has taken any increase, that
has withdrawn his hand from iniquity, has executed true judgment between
man and man,
9. Has walked in My statutes, and has kept My judgments, to deal truly; he
is just, he shall surely live, says YHVH Elohim.
The ‘living’ and ‘dying’ spoken of in these verses is your eternal spiritual
life. We all die physically sooner or later, but anyone can be as a dead
person spiritually before YHVH. We all know of righteous people who die
early deaths and evil unrighteous ones that live very long lives.
18
Ezekiel 3:18-21
When I say unto the wicked, you shall surely die; and you give him not
warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his
life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I
require at your hand.
19. Yet if you warn the wicked and he turn not from his wickedness, nor
from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered
your soul.
20. Again, when a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and
commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die:
because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his
righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood will
I require at your hand.
21. Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin
not, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also you
have delivered your soul.
Ezekiel 33:20
Yet you say, ‘The Way’ of YHVH is not equal. O you house of Yisrael, I
will judge you every one after his ways.
Jeremiah 16:19
O YHVH, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of
affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto You from the ends of the earth, and
shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things
wherein there is no profit.
Jeremiah 16:11-12
Then shall you say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken Me, says
YHVH, and have walked after other elohim, and have served them, and have
worshipped them, and have forsaken Me, and have not kept My Torah;
12. And you have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, you walk
every one after the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not hearken
unto Me
Jeremiah 16:21
Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to
know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My Name is
YHVH.
19
Jeremiah 16:21
I will this once cause them to know
Jeremiah 16:21
and they shall know that My Name is YHVH.
Jeremiah 29:13-14
And you shall seek Me, and find Me, when you shall search for Me with all
your heart.
14. And I will be found of you, says YHVH: and I will turn away your
captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places
where I have driven you, says YHVH; and I will bring you again into the
place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.
Jeremiah 24:7
And I will give them a heart to know Me, that I am YHVH: and they shall
be My people, and I will be their Elohim: for they shall return unto Me with
their whole heart.
Jeremiah 33:3
Call unto Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty
things, which you know not.
Psalms 139:6
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
Proverbs 27:17
Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.
Hosea 14:9
Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? Prudent and he shall
know them? For ‘the way’ of YHVH is right, and the just shall walk in
them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
Matthew 11:15 He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Elohim, and keep His
commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
20
14. For Elohim shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret
thing, whether it is good or whether it is evil.
Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love
Elohim, to them who are the called according to His purpose.
21
Whole-book Context or Scripture cannot contradict
Scripture!
If it appears to, then one of three things is likely: 1.) it is possible the
translation was faulty, in one or both of the Scriptures that seem at odds with
each other or 2.) there is a misunderstanding (misinterpretation) of Scripture
precepts which results in a faulty doctrine or, 3.) you have failed to see all
sides of an issue or the full picture.
An example of 3.) : Look at a dime, you can lay it flat and see the front or
the back (one dimension); you can stand it on edge where only the edge can
be seen (still only one dimension); or turn it slightly so the edge and one side
can be seen (now it appears in two dimensions); or you can spin it on edge,
like a top, and see it from a different perspective as it spins round and round
revealing all aspects of the whole thing!
This is the problem most people, Christian or Jew, have with the subject
of salvation; looking at only one aspect, rather than seeing the whole
picture.
On one side it’s a free gift and there is nothing can be done to earn it
and on the other side every thing you do in life will be judged. Because
most folks cannot see that these two concepts are not at odds with each, but
are opposite sides of the ‘same coin’!!!
Most Christian ‘sav-a-logues’, contain in their tracts something to the
effect ‘that nothing can be done to earn it’ and then build a faulty doctrine
that tells you the eternal Torah (law) of the Father has been ‘done away
with’ or ‘was nailed to the cross’ and you ‘are not under the law’, but you
‘are under grace’; as if this is a blanket that covers your continued sinning.
All you have to do is “just believe and confess with your mouth that J-sus is
Lord” Where is the repentance? We are supposed to turn away from our sin
and sin no more! How do we know what is sin but by the Torah?! (Romans
3:20ff)
Romans 3:20 ff …for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
Most churches and synagogues seem to be more interested in ‘numbers’;

how many people can we make ‘feel good about themselves without
offending them’. Is this a numbers contest, as if to say we’re right because
we have the most people’? A majority of people does NOT and CANNOT
change YHVH’s eternal Truth. Or could the want of a lot of members be
their money? It’s probably a little of both. BEWARE of wolves in sheep’s
22
clothing. There are many who will lead the gullible, the lazy and the blind
astray! I’m not gullible you say? How about lazy? Do you search the
Scriptures, like the noble Bereans, to see if what others tell you is so? Or to
hide His Word in your heart so that you may not sin against Him?
Most Jews totally ignore the requirement of a blood sacrifice as

atonement for past sin. So we have brother against brother, each telling the
other “they don’t know what they are talking about”, while all along neither
is ‘seeing the whole picture’.
What does ‘the whole picture’ show? I can tell you but I can’t teach you;
you must search for yourself, with all your heart. If you truly love ‘the
TRUTH’, then you have not been totally blinded, YHVH is faithful and will
send you a teacher, the Ruach Kodesh, who will guide you in all Truth. His
Word is salve for the eyes! (Re: 2 Thessalonians 2:10-11).
Remember YHVH is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow; He does

not change!!!! You do not have to divide His Word into a ‘new covenant’
and an ‘old covenant’ because you do not see the whole picture. They can
and should be reconciled as the same covenant with the renewed being
written upon your heart and in your mind. Remember the three points at the
start of this essay as you study and make your studies for the purpose of
showing your self approved to YHVH.
* YHVH is the same, does not change: Mal.3:6, Psalm89:34, 1Sam.15:29,

Num.23:19, Ezk.24:14; 5:11.
*Can you lose your salvation?: Ezk.3:18-21, 33:7-9,12-16, 18:24,

2Peter2:21.
* Learn the difference!: Num.15:15-31,especially v.22,24,25,26,28,29,30
*What is the renewed covenant?: Jer.31:31-34, Ezk.37:14,21-24-28,

36:21-22-27-29, 11:19-20.
*If you wish to serve YHVH in Spirit and Truth, you are Yisrael, either as
a natural born son of the remnant of the lost ten tribes or a sojourner joining
himself to ‘The Way of YHVH’: Exodus 12:48-49, Ezk.37:14,21-24,25-28.
23
Hos.14:9 “Who is wise, and he shall understand these things, prudent, and
he shall know them, for the ways of YHVH are right, and the just shall walk
in them, but the transgressors shall fall therein.”
Ecc.12:13-14 “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Elohim,
and keep His commandments for this is the whole duty of man.
For Elohim shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing,
whether it be good, or whether it be evil.”
I have done my job as a watchman, you have been warned, your blood can
no longer be upon my hands, take heed!
The Berean 4/22/00 Revised 3/5/05 & 9/7/08
Does not change:
Malachi 3:6
consumed.
Psalms 89:34
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of My lips.
1 Samuel 15:29 And also the Strength of Yisrael will not lie nor repent: for
He is not a man, that He should repent.
Ezekiel 24:14
I YHVH have spoken it: it shall come to pass, and I will do it; I will not go
back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to your ways, and
according to your doings, shall they judge you, says YHVH Elohim.
Ezekiel 5:11
Wherefore, as I live, says YHVH Elohim; Surely, because you have defiled
My sanctuary with all your detestable things, and with all your
abominations, therefore will I also diminish you; neither shall My eye spare,
neither will I have any pity.
24
Lose Salvation:
Ezekiel 3:18-21
When I say unto the wicked, you shall surely die; and you give him not
warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life;
the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at
your hand.
19. Yet if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor
from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered
your soul.
20. Again, When a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and
commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die:
because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his
righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood will
I require at your hand.
21. Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not,
and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also you have
delivered your soul.
Ezekiel 33:7-9
So you, O son of man, I have set you a watchman unto the house of Yisrael;
therefore you shall hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from Me.
8. When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, you shall surely die; if you
do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in
his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.
9. Nevertheless, if you warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he
does not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have
delivered your soul.
Ezekiel 33:12-16
Therefore, you son of man, say unto the children of your people, The
righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his
transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall
thereby in the day that he turns from his wickedness; neither shall the
righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sins.
13. When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to
his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall
not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he has committed, he shall die
for it.
25
14. Again, when I say unto the wicked, you shall surely die; if he turns
from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
15. If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in
the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall
not die.
16. None of his sins that he has committed shall be mentioned unto him: he
has done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
Ezekiel 18:24
But when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits
iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man
does, shall he live? All his righteousness that he has done shall not be
mentioned: in his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has
sinned, in them shall he die.
2 Peter 2:20-21
For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the
knowledge of YHVH and Savior Yahshua HaMoshiach , they are again
entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the
beginning.
21. For it had been better for them not to have known ‘The Way’ of
Righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the Holy
commandment delivered unto them.
Learn the difference between mistaken and presumptuous sin:
Numbers 15:15-16 and 22-31

One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the
stranger that sojourns with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations:
as you are, so shall the stranger be before YHVH.
16. One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that
sojourns with you.
22. And if you have erred, and not observed all these commandments,
which YHVH has spoken unto Moses,
23. Even all that YHVH has commanded you by the hand of Moses, from
the day that YHVH commanded Moses, and henceforward among your
generations;
24. Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the
knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one
26
young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet savor unto YHVH, with his
meat offering, and his drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid
of the goats for a sin offering.
25. And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the
children of Yisrael, and it shall be forgiven them; for it is ignorance: and
they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto YHVH, and their
sin offering before YHVH, for their ignorance:
26. And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Yisrael,
and the stranger that sojourns among them; seeing all the people were in
ignorance.
27. And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of
the first year for a sin offering.
28. And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sins ignorantly,
when he sins by ignorance before YHVH, to make an atonement for him;
and it shall be forgiven him.
29. You shall have one law for him that sins through ignorance, both
for him that is born among the children of Yisrael, and for the stranger
that sojourns among them.
30. But the soul that does ought presumptuously, whether he be born
in the land, or a stranger, the same reproaches YHVH; and that soul
shall be cut off from among his people.
31. Because he has despised the Word of YHVH, and has broken His
commandment, that soul shall utterly be cut off; his iniquity shall be upon
him.
Leviticus 17:11
For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the
altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes an
atonement for the soul.
Renewed covenant:
Jeremiah 31:31-34
Behold, the days come, says YHVH, that I will make a new covenant with
the house of Yisrael, and with the house of Judah:
32. Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day
that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which
My covenant they broke, although I was a husband unto them, says YHVH:
27
33. But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of
Yisrael; After those days, says YHVH, I will put My Torah in their minds
and write it in their hearts; and will be their Elohim, and they shall be My
people.
34. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man
his brother, saying, Know YHVH: for they shall all know Me, from the least
of them unto the greatest of them, says YHVH: for I will forgive their
iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Ezekiel 37:14
And I shall put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I shall place you in
your own land: then shall you know that I YHVH have spoken it, and
performed it, says YHVH.
Ezekiel 37:21-28
And say unto them, Thus says YHVH Elohim; Behold, I will take the
children of Yisrael from among the heathen, wherever they be gone, and will
gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
22. And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of
Yisrael; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more
two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at
all.
23. Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with
their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save
them out of all their dwelling places, wherein they have sinned, and will
cleanse them: so shall they be My people, and I will be their Elohim.
24. And David My servant shall be king over them; and they all shall
have one shepherd: they shall also walk in My judgments, and observe
My statutes, and do them.
25. And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My
servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even
they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and My
servant David shall be their prince for ever.
26. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an
everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them,
and will set My Sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
27. My Tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their Elohim, and
they shall be My people.
28. And the heathen shall know that I YHVH do sanctify Yisrael, when
My Sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.
28
Ezekiel 36:21-29
But I had pity for My Holy Name, which the house of Yisrael had
profaned among the heathen, wherever they went.
22. Therefore say unto the house of Yisrael, Thus says YHVH Elohim; I do
not this for your sakes, O house of Yisrael, but for My Holy Name's sake,
which you have profaned among the heathen, wherever you went.
23. And I will sanctify My Great Name, which was profaned among the
heathen, which you have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen
shall know that I am YHVH, says YHVH Elohim, when I shall be sanctified
in you before their eyes.
24. For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all
countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25. Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean: from
all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26. A new heart also will I give you, and a new Spirit will I put within you:
and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a
heart of flesh.
27. And I will put My Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My
29. I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the
grain, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
Ezekiel 11:18-20
18. And they shall come here, and they shall take away all the detestable
things thereof and all the abominations thereof from there.
19. And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new Spirit within you;
and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of
flesh:
20. That they may walk in My statutes, and keep My ordinances, and do
them: and they shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim.
Who is Yisrael:
Exodus 12:48-49
And when a stranger shall sojourn with you, and will keep the Passover to
YHVH, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and
29
keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no
uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
49. One law shall be to him that is home born, and unto the stranger
that sojourns among you. (This is mentioned five times in Torah)
Romans 11:16 If the part of the dough offered as first fruits is Holy, then
the whole batch is Holy; if the Root is Holy, so are the branches.
17 If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, being a wild
olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the
nourishing sap from the olive Root,
18 Boast not against the branches. But if you do, consider this: You do not
support the Root, but the Root supports you.
19 You will say then, "Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted
in."
20 Very well; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by
faith. Do not be arrogant, but be afraid.
21 For if Elohim did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare
you either.
Ezekiel 37:14
And shall put My spirit in you, and you shall live, and I shall place you in
your own land: then shall you know that I YHVH have spoken it, and
performed it, says YHVH.
21 And say unto them, Thus says YHVH Elohim; Behold, I will take the
children of Yisrael from among the heathen, wherever they be gone, and will
gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of
two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.
23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with
24 And David My servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have
one shepherd: they shall also walk in My judgments, and observe My
statutes, and do them.
25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My
they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and My
servant David shall be their prince for ever.
30
Ezekiel 37:26-28
and will set My Sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
27. My Tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their Elohim, and
28. And the heathen shall know that I YHVH do sanctify Yisrael, when
My Sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.
If you can not understand from the above verses that YHVH says, no
make that ‘promises’, that He WILL REGATHER US AND BRING US
BACK TO ERETZ YISRAEL; when He begins the renewed covenant in its
fullness, then you need to pray, ask guidance and go back and reread these
passages. These are not my words, but His! Yisrael never had a king after
the Babylonian captivity so this could not have already been fulfilled. This
is for the end days because when it is fulfilled and it will be FOREVER! If
you still don’t understand you are probably one of the tares! Prepare for the
fire!
31
ADD or DIMINISH
Deuteronomy 12:32
What thing so ever I command you, observe to do it: you shall not
add thereto, nor diminish from it.
Deuteronomy 4:1-2
Now therefore hearken, O Yisrael, unto the statutes and unto the
judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that you may live, and
go in and possess the land which YHVH Elohim of your fathers
gives you.
2. You shall not add unto the word which I command you,
neither shall you diminish ought from it, that you may keep the
commandments of YHVH your Elohim which I command you.
Proverbs 30:5-6
Every word of Elohim is pure: He is a shield unto them that put
their trust in Him.
6. Add you not unto His words, lest He reprove you, and you be
found a liar.
Revelation 22:18-19
For I testify unto every man that hears the words of the prophecy of
this book, If any man shall add unto these things, Elohim shall
add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19. And if any man shall take away from the words of the book
of this prophecy, Elohim shall take away his part out of the book of
life, and out of the Holy City, and from the things which are written
in this book.
This not only covers editing the Scriptures themselves but also
making up new ‘laws’ that YHVH did not put in Scripture and
calling them Torah or telling people that one does not have to do
certain things that are commanded.
The Rabbi’s call their rulings Oral Torah, saying that it was given
to Moses and has been handed down. They add to it continually.
They take verses, remove many words and claim authority to be able
to butcher Scripture into opposite context. An example is Exodus
23:2:
32
Exodus 23:2 You shall not follow the majority to do evil; neither
shall you speak in a cause to turn aside after a majority to wrest
justice
They take the first six words, remove ‘not’ and come up with:
“You shall follow the majority”. They claim this means you must
follow after the majority of Rabbis ruling on an issue; because there
are often some whose rulings are the antithesis of each other, and
they claim both ruling are correct! By demanding, through corrupted
Scriptures, that you have to follow after the majority they make the
Theocracy of YHVH into a democracy! And thus they bring the
Word of Elohim to no effect, and they do many such things.
(Matthew 15:1-9 and Mark 7:1-13.)
The Rabbis are not alone in adding and diminishing the Word; the
Catholics proudly proclaim they changed the Sabbath to Sunday and
they have removed the second commandment from the Ten
Commandments. Catholics and Protestants alike believe that the
Torah is ‘old’ and not applicable to them today.
Many chapters in this book will address what exactly the new
covenant is to be. I say ‘is to be’ because there are few that have it
written upon their heart and in their mind at this time. This brings to
my mind Yahshua’s discourse on the wide road and the narrow road!
As you will see YHVH promises it will be so when He re-gathers
Yisrael from every place they have been scattered. These are not my
ideas, but what Scripture plainly and repeatedly tells us!
Joshua 1:7-8
Only be you strong and very courageous, that you may observe to
do according to all the Torah, which Moses My servant
commanded you: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that
you may prosper wheresoever you go.
8. This book of the Torah shall not depart out of your mouth; but
you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may observe to do
according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your
way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
33
Deuteronomy 13:18
Because you shall hearken to the voice of YHVH your Elohim, to
keep all his commandments which I command you this day, to do
that which is right in the eyes of YHVH your Elohim.
2 Timothy 4:3-4
For the time will come when men will not put up with sound
doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around
them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want
to hear.
4 They will turn their ears away from the Truth and turn aside
to myths.
2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of Elohim, and

is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction
in righteousness:
17 so that the man of Elohim may be thoroughly equipped for every
good work.
The Word of Elohim IS TRUTH! See the chapter “Truth in the

Psalms”. Also Proverbs has a lot to say about truth.
YHVH’s Word is Truth therefore it cannot contradict itself. Think
about that statement for awhile, Selah. If His Word seems to
contradict itself then it is the reader who doesn’t understand what is
being presented! Proper understanding is that all Scripture must
be reconciled to each other.
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Reverence Elohim,
and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
14. For Elohim shall bring every work into judgment, with every
secret thing, whether it is good or whether it is evil.
Romans 8:28
34

The Four Types of Righteousness
What brought about this study where antinomian Christians claiming that all
my works of Torah were of no avail. But when reading Scripture it tells us that
YHWH is the same Yesterday, today and tomorrow, He does NOT CHANGE.
And that further He will do nothing new that He has not shown us first
through His prophets! The ‘new covenant’ is the Torah written upon our
hearts and put in our minds so we will do it!
The First Type of Righteousness
Genesis 15:6
And he believed in YHWH; and He counted it to him for righteousness.
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, (is this our hope for forgiveness
of our sins and eternal life?) the evidence of things not seen.
By faith we understand that the universe was formed at Elohim's command,
so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
By faith Abel offered Elohim a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was
commended as a righteous man, when Elohim spoke well of his offerings.
And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead.
Hebrews 11:6
But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that comes to
Elohim must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that
diligently seek him.
By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his
inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was
going. By faith Abraham, even though he was past age and Sarah herself was
barren was enabled to become a father because he considered Him faithful
who had made the promise.
Hebrews 11:13-14
(However) These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but
having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them,
and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
38
14. For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a land.
But now they desire a better land, that is, a heavenly one: wherefore Elohim is
not ashamed to be called their Elohim: for He has prepared for them a city.
This is one of the statements of the ‘New Testament’ that flies in the face
of the Tanak. It ignores the many prophecies that have not been fulfilled
about re-gathering Yisrael to Eretz Yisrael (At least 26!). Unless this
passage in Hebrews is for the eighth day (eighth millennium) after the earth
and the heavens have melted. (Re: 2 Peter 3:10 and Revelation 21:1).
The Second Type of Righteousness
Deuteronomy 6:25
And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do this entire
Commandment before YHWH our Elohim, as He has commanded us.
New International
Deuteronomy 6:25 And if we are careful to obey all this law (Torah) before
YHWH our Elohim, as He has commanded us, that will be our righteousness."
Psalms 18:20-26
YHWH rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the
cleanness of my hands has He recompensed me.
21. For I have kept the ways of YHWH, and have not wickedly departed from
my Elohim.
22. For all His judgments were before me, and I did not put away His statutes
from me.
23. I was also upright before Him, and I kept myself from my iniquity.
24. Therefore has YHWH recompensed me according to my righteousness,
according to the cleanness of my hands in His eyesight.
25. With the merciful You will show Yourself merciful; with an upright man
You will show Yourself upright;
26. With the pure You will show Yourself pure; and with the froward You
will show Yourself froward. (froward: stubbornly obstinate)
Psalms 7:8
YHWH shall judge the people; judge me, O YHWH, according to my
righteousness, and according to my integrity that is in me.
39
Psalms 37:5-6
Commit your way unto YHWH; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to
pass.
6. And He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your
judgment as the noonday.
Psalms 37:17
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but YHWH upholds the righteous.
Isaiah 58:8
Then shall your light break forth as the morning, and your health shall spring
forth speedily: and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of
YHWH shall be your reward.
This is one verse that my Christian ‘friends’ used to tell me that all my
‘works’ were nothing to Elohim.
Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness is as filthy rags;
Compare to NIV:
NIV Isaiah 64:5 You come to the help of those who gladly do right, who
remember Your ways. But when we continued to sin against them, You were
angry. (thus)
6 All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts
are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins
sweep us away. How then can we be saved? (“have become” is in line with
Ezekiel chapter 3 and 18!).
‘WHEN’ we CONTINUE to sin, THEN our righteousness is as ….. this is

consistent with other Scriptures like Ezekiel chapters 3, 18 and 33
7. No one calls on Your Name or strives to lay hold of You; for You have
hidden Your face from us and made us waste away because of our sins.
Often all one has to do is read the surrounding verses to put an isolated
verse, taken out of context, to support Christian doctrines like: ‘All you got
to do is believe’, back into whole book context. Their reply is, “But nobody
can keep the whole law”. Torah says it is do-able if it is in your heart! They
40
don’t understand that in Torah there are foolish and mistaken sins that will
be forgiven with repentance vs. presumptuous sin that will not.
Deuteronomy 30:11-14
Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or
beyond your reach.
12. It is not up in heaven, so that you have to ask, "Who will ascend into
heaven to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?"
13. Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you have to ask, "Who will cross the sea
to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?"
14. No, the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so
you may obey it.
Ezekiel 3:20
Again, When a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and commit
iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die….. and his
righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered.
Ezekiel 3:21
Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he
does not sin, he shall surely live
Ezekiel 18:20
The soul that sins, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the
father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness
of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall
be upon him.
Ezekiel 18:24-27
But when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits
iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man
does, shall he live? All his righteousness that he has done shall not be
mentioned: in his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has
sinned, in them shall he die.
25. Yet you say, ‘The Way’ of YHWH is not equal. Hear now, O house of
Yisrael; is not My Way equal? Are not your ways unequal?
26. When a righteous man turns away from his righteousness, and commits
iniquity, and dies in them; for his iniquity that he has done shall he die.
27. Again, when the wicked man turns away from his wickedness that he
41
has committed, and does that which is lawful and right, he shall save his
soul alive.
Ezekiel 18:29-32
Yet says the house of Yisrael, The way of YHWH is not equal. O house of
Yisrael, are not My ways equal? Are not your ways unequal?
30. Therefore I will judge you, O house of Yisrael, and every one
according to his ways, says YHWH Elohim. Repent, and turn yourselves
from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
31. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby you have
transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you
die, O house of Yisrael?
32. For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dies, says YHWH
Elohim: wherefore turn yourselves, and live.
My conclusion from these precepts is: first you MUST have right faith to
believe, and then second you MUST have proof of that belief that shows
itself by your actions: obedience to the One we love. Obedience IS the second
form of righteousness that PROVES we believe YHWH is who He says He is
and that His Word is in our heart. These last verses in Ezekiel show that we
WILL be SEPERATED from YHWH (spiritual death) if we sin because then
these righteous acts will NOT be remembered. This should put fear in our
hearts that ‘BELIEF’ IS NOT ENOUGH for salvation. The following
statements of YHWH add to this precept when viewed in the Remez as ‘the
promised land’ being symbolic of the promise of eternal life.
Deuteronomy 9:4-6
Speak not in your heart, after that YHWH your Elohim has cast them out
from before you, saying, For my righteousness YHWH has brought me in to
possess this land: but for the wickedness of these nations YHWH does drive
them out from before you.
5. Not for your righteousness, or for the uprightness of your heart, do you go
to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations YHWH your
Elohim does drive them out from before you, and that He may perform the
word which YHWH swore unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
6. Understand therefore, that YHWH your Elohim gives you not this good
land to possess it for your righteousness; for you are a stiff necked people.
YHWH will drive out the wicked that inhabit His kingdom (HaSatan and
his third of the heavenly host that followed him) to let us posses their domain,
42
NOT because of what we do but because of their wickedness. However to be
consistent with the rest of Scripture those NOT DOING His will are not going
to be allowed to enter at all! (Left in the outer darkness, away from the light
of YHWH, where there is gnashing of teeth).
The Third Type of Righteousness
I know this is the one we all fall short on when we try to be Torah
observant, especially me, or some of my children would probably be dead!
Psalms 106:30-31
Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was
stayed.
31. And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations
for evermore.
Numbers 25:7-8
And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he
rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;
8. And he went after the man of Yisrael into the tent, and thrust both of them
through, the man of Yisrael, and the woman through her belly. So the plague
was stayed from the children of Yisrael.
11 Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned My
wrath away from the children of Yisrael, while he was zealous for My sake
among them, that I consumed not the children of Yisrael in My jealousy.
These first three are types of our righteousness, the latter two being a show,
by our actions, that we have the first type; however without the fourth type we
are ‘dead in the water’! This is probably because we lack the third type.
If you try to claim that nobody can do all of Torah you don’t know
Scripture very well or the lies of the church have blinded you, consider:
Ezekiel 14:14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they
should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, says Master YHVH.
43
The Fourth Type of Righteousness
Psalms 31:1
In You, O YHWH, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in
Your righteousness.
Psalms 69:27-28
Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into Your
righteousness.
27. Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with
the righteous.
Psalms 98:2
YHWH has made known His salvation: His righteousness has He openly
showed in the sight of the heathen.
New International
Psalms 98:2 YHWH has made His salvation known and revealed His
righteousness to the nations.
Psalms 35:24
Judge me, O YHWH my Elohim, according to Your righteousness; and let
them not rejoice over me.
I have counted twenty two mentions of “Your/His righteousness in the

Psalms!
It is this fourth type of righteousness; that of YHWH’s righteousness that
He cannot lie, that He WILL DO what He has told us, for the sake of His
Name, we are saved and that we are allowed to enter His Kingdom. I feel that
the kingdom will be His Spiritual Realm here on the Earth for a thousand years
then it will be transformed into a new Heaven and Earth, or the transformation
could take place at the beginning. I’m not going to put YHVH ‘in a box’, He
will do His pleasure at His will and timing.
Conclusion:
Psalms 37:5
Commit your way unto YHWH; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to
pass. Rest in YHWH, and wait patiently (Hebrew: galal- commit yourself and trust)
for Him: fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of
44
the man who brings wicked devices to pass.
For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon YHWH, (as a servant)
they shall inherit the earth.
14. For Elohim shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing,
whether it is good or whether it is evil.
The next three pages are some of my favorite passages:

YHVH’s Covenant (promises)
cov-e-nant n. 1. A binding agreement; a compact. 2. Law. A formal sealed agreement or

contract. A suit to recover damages for violation of such a contract. 3. In the Bible, Elohim's
promise to the human race.1
cov-e-nant An often legally binding arrangement : agreement, accord, arrangement, bargain,

bond, compact, contract, convention, covenant, pact, transaction, settlement. A declaration that
one will or won't do something : promise, agreement, assurance, bargain, bond, commitment,
compact, contract, covenant, deal, guarantee, oath, pledge, surety, vow. To assume an obligation.
v.contract, agree, bind oneself, commit, covenant, give one's word, guarantee, pledge, plight,
promise, underwrite, vow, warrant, undertake, engage, warranty, certify. 2
(My emphasis added)
The most important aspect of a long term covenant is the immutableness

of the character of the party making the promise. (See the chapter on I Have
Told You The End From The Beginning).
I have emphasized above what I feel Scripture tells us about YHVH’s

covenants with men. Scripture also tells us that YHVH is the same
yesterday, today and tomorrow; that He does not change and cannot lie.

YHVH’s covenant is with the descendants of Yisrael (Jacobs new name),
and those wishing to join the House of Yisrael to love and serve YHVH
according to His instructions (Torah) on Mt. Sinai and clarified somewhat
by the Prophets. He has never made a covenant like this with any other
peoples/nations! (the covenant with Noah was for all mankind, but it is
limited to flooding the whole Earth again and that seedtime and harvest, cold
and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.").
I am going to start this journey in the order that I progressed through

them: the promises of YHVH, the signs of His covenant, the importance of
His Name and then the courage to walk the walk.
The main promise in Scripture is to Avraham and his descendants. It gives

a specified area of land that is promised to his offspring. Although Avraham
had eight sons, the promise was narrowed to Isaac, and then to Jacob and his
offspring. Also in this is two other promises, the first is that all the families
of the earth would be blessed in Avraham’s seed and second is the
promise of multiplicity. These two promises were also handed down to Isaac
and Jacob. Let’s look at the Scriptures that tell us these things:
Genesis 12:7 YHVH appeared to Avram and said, "To your offspring I
will give this land." So he built an altar there to YHVH, who had appeared
to him.
Genesis 12:1 YHVH said to Avram, "Leave your country, your people and
your father's household and go to the land I will show you.
2 "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your
name great, and you will be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and
all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."
Genesis 15:3-10,12-15, & 18 And Avram said, "You have given me no

children; so a servant in my household will be my heir."
4 Then the Word of YHVH came to him: "This man will not be your heir,
but a son coming from your own body will be your heir." YHVH took him
outside and said, "Look up at the heavens and count the stars, if indeed you
can count them." Then He said to him, "So shall your offspring be."
6 Avram believed YHVH, and He credited it to him as righteousness.
49
7 And He said unto him, I am YHVH that brought you out of Ur of the
Chaldees, to give you this land to inherit it.
8 But Avram said, "O Sovereign YHVH, how can I know that I will gain
possession of it?"
9 So YHVH said to him, "Bring Me a heifer, a goat and a ram, each three
years old, along with a dove and a young pigeon."
10 Avram brought all these to Him, cut them in two and arranged the halves
opposite each other; the birds, however, he did not cut in half.
12 As the sun was setting, Avram fell into a deep sleep, and a thick and
dreadful darkness came over him.
13 Then YHVH said to him, "Know for certain that your descendants
will be strangers in a country not their own, and they will be enslaved and
mistreated four hundred years.
14 But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will
come out with great possessions.
18 On that day YHVH made a covenant with Avram and said, "To your
descendants I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river,
the Euphrates.
Genesis 17:1 When Avram was ninety-nine years old, YHVH appeared to
him and said, "I am El Shaddai walk before Me and be blameless.
4 "As for Me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of
many nations.
5 No longer will you be called Avram ; your name will be Avraham, for I
have made you a father of many nations.
6 I will make you very fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will
come from you.
7 I will establish My covenant as an everlasting covenant between Me and
you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be
your Elohim and the Elohim of your descendants after you.
8 The whole land of Canaan, where you are now an alien, I will give as an
everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you; and I will
be their Elohim."
9 Then Elohim said to Avraham, "As for you, you must keep My
covenant, you and your descendants after you for the
generations to come.
The Sign of the Covenant
50
Genesis 17:10 This is My covenant with you and your descendants after
you, the covenant you are to keep: Every male among you shall be
circumcised.
11 You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be the sign of the covenant
between Me and you.
Our belief is confirmed by our actions (obedience)
Genesis 18:17 Then YHVH said, "Shall I hide from Avraham what I am
about to do?
18 Seeing that Avraham will surely become a great and mighty nation, and
all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household
after him, and they shall keep ‘The Way’ of YHVH, to do justice and
judgment; that YHVH may bring upon Avraham that which He has spoken
to him.
The word ‘know’ in Hebrew is Strong’s # 3045 transliterated: yada`

Phonetic: yaw-dah'
This word also denotes a very intimate knowing, as it is the same word
used in Gen. 4:1 “Adam knew Eve, his wife; and she conceived.” How
intimate are you with YHVH?
The Promise is passed to Isaac
Genesis 26:1 Now there was a famine in the land--besides the earlier famine
of Avraham's time--and Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines in
Gerar.
2 YHVH appeared to Isaac and said, "Do not go down to Egypt; live in the
land where I tell you to live.
3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you. For unto
you, and unto your descendants, I will give all these lands, and I will
establish the oath which I swore unto Avraham your father.
4 I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and will
give them all these lands, and through your offspring all nations on
earth will be blessed,
51
5 Because Avraham obeyed My voice, and kept My charge, My
commandments, My statutes, and My laws.
The Promise is passed to Jacob
Genesis 28:10 Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran.
11 When he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the
sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay
down to sleep.
12 He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its
top reaching to heaven, and the messengers of Elohim were ascending and
descending on it.
13 And, behold, YHVH stood above it, and said, I am YHVH, the Elohim
of Avraham your father, and the Elohim of Isaac.
I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying.
14 Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread
out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All peoples on
earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.
15 I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will
bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I
have promised you."
YHVH promised to bring Jacob back which He did, but I feel it is also a
hint of a recurring theme: if you serve YHVH, obey Him according to His
terms, then you will be a special treasure to Him and you get to live in His
land (read kingdom).
This recurring theme starts in Genesis, is expounded on by the Prophets,

and is spoken of by Yahshua and His disciples. It is basically that all Yisrael
would sin, defile YHVH’s land and be scattered among the nations but
would be re-gathered in the latter days. By their mingling with all
nations; all nations would be blessed!
We have obligations to do in the covenant. YHVH does not change but

we have! Yahshua’s mission was to re-gather the Whole House of Yisrael,
clean them up and present them to the Father as a Holy offering. This will
come into being at His return; which I feel is when the renewed covenant
52
will be fully implemented. Remember YHVH does not change; He will
bring all things prophesized to pass!
We are the ones that change so easily! Men love to have their ears
‘tickled’:
2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound
doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a
great number of teachers tickling the ear.
Man has been deceived as to what our obligations are, for our part of the
covenant! Following their lies could put you as a covenant breaker and
outside of the covenant! But now the time has come for the Restoration of
All Things! We have been blinded, in part, for a season, for a reason. That
season is drawing to a close! The spirit of Eliyahu is upon us.
We were blinded for a ‘season’, for a reason.
2 Corinthians 3:14 But their minds were blinded, for to this day the same
veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because
only in Messiah is it taken away. (Are you ‘in’ Messiah?).
Are you walking as He walked? He kept Shabbat and all of Torah! Below
are four witnesses that you should walk as He walked:
1 John 2:6 Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Yahshua did.
1 Peter 2:21 To this you were called, because Messiah suffered for you,
leaving you an example, that you should follow in His steps.
John 13:15 I have set you an example that you should do as I have done
for you.
1 Corinthians 11:1 Follow my example, as I follow the example of

Messiah.
And the new covenant is having Torah written upon your heart and mind
and being empowered to do it:
Jeremiah 31:31 "The time is coming," declares YHVH, "when I will make
a new covenant with the house of Yisrael and with the house of Judah.
53
33 "This is the covenant I will make with the house of Yisrael after that
time," declares YHVH. "I will put My Torah in their minds and write it
on their hearts. I will be their Elohim, and they will be My people.
Ezekiel 37:21 And say unto them, Thus says Master YHVH: Behold, I will
take the children of Yisrael from among the nations, wherever they are
gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own
land:
22 I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Yisrael.
There will be one king over all of them and they will never again be two
nations or be divided into two kingdoms.
23 They will no longer defile themselves with their idols and vile images or
with any of their offenses, for I will save them from all their sinful
backsliding, and I will cleanse them. They will be My people, and I will be
their Elohim.
24 And My servant David shall be king over them; and they all shall have
one shepherd: they shall also walk in My ordinances, and observe My
If you are willing, the Ruach Kodesh (Holy Spirit) will guide you in all
Truth. YHVH is gracious and forgiving for He wants that no one should
perish. If you are repentant and seek to be in covenant with Him there is
hope, and hope is faith. Then you show your faith by your actions.
For this is our faith; that we believe YHVH is who He says He is and will
do the things He has promised. We show that faith by DOING what He has
asked of us.
You must be willing to let go of preconceived ideas and doctrines that

have come from blind men and let the TRUTH of Scripture be Restored. The
Truth has been subtly distorted; but in a few instances not subtly but
blatantly so.
Jeremiah 16:19 O YHVH, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in

the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto You from the ends of the
earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things
wherein there is no profit.
Before continuing with YHVH’s plan for the descendents of Avraham,

Isaac, and Jacob I want to briefly cover four very important foundational
54
issues: YHVH’s Name, His title, the Ten Commandments and the Sabbath.
Later I will cover them in more detail.
Names and Titles
Before I share my teaching on THE NAME (above all names) I want to

stress the importance of names and lay some foundations.
If you don’t think names are important try calling your spouse by
your former sweethearts’ name, especially in an intimate moment!
This is essentially what we do when we call YHVH ‘Lord’, especially in

our intimate moments of prayer and supplication with Him.
The Hebrew letters yod, hey, vav, hey, transliterated as YHVH, is found
more than 7,000 times in the Scriptures! Do you think there might be some
importance connected to the sheer number of times His name is
mentioned? And man, for some reason, has seen fit to change His name in
their translations to ‘Lord”. Lord is, at best an English landowner’s title
which means master. At the worst, as we will see, it is a title for false
mighty ones (elohim).
Here lies a paradox, why did the same Englishmen translate Ba’al, which
means Master, to lord, and then use the same word to replace YHVH’s
sacred name?
We will find out more about Ba’al shortly but first I’d like to return to the
importance of a name. Names, especially in Hebrew, often told of ones
status, position or character.
55
When YHVH promised Avram (which means exalted father, at that time
Avram was still childless) that he would not remain without heirs from his
own body but would become the Father of many nations; YHVH changed
Avram’s name to Avraham which means father of a multitude. (At the time
Avraham had only one child Ishmael.)
We find YHVH changing Jacob’s name to Yisrael (Israel) after he

wrestled with the messenger of Yah. Yisrael means perseveres or contends
with Elohim.
( I use Yisrael for the patriarch, his descendents and the ancient kingdom,
but especially the Northern Ten Tribes (NTT from here on); for the
purpose of differentiating him/them from the modern nation of Israel).
So we can begin to see that names are more important than what we
consider them to be in modern times. This is highly evident among black
American women who are very creative at making up names that sound nice
but have no meaning. As to the importance of names YHVH’s Name is even
more so, as you will soon see!
YHVH essentially means I am that I am and is the Name He says He is to

be remembered by:
Exodus 3:15ff This is My Name forever, the Name by which I am to be

remembered from generation to generation.
Also before I give you the teaching “The Name (above all names) I’d like
to cover the title by which the world calls YHVH: ‘God’.
Nobody really knows the origin of the word ‘God’; if you do searches on
the origin of the word ‘God’ you will find those who believe it is the proper
name of a Teutonic deity! There are other scholars who disagree, but the
possibility remains. Would you like to gamble on it? Think again about the
second sentence at the beginning of this article. “If you don’t think names
are important try calling your spouse by your former sweethearts’ name,
especially in an intimate moment!” YHVH wants to be our husband, to
provide for us! You don’t know how many times I’ve heard “Oh but I offer
the sacrifice of praise to him and ‘the Lord’ knows my heart.” To which I
reply read 1 Sam. 15:22 and a few other verses:
56
1 Samuel 15:22 But Samuel replied: "Does YHVH delight in burnt
offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of YHVH? To
obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
Hosea 6:6 For I desire goodness, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of
Elohim more than burnt-offerings.
Hosea 6:6
For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of Elohim rather
than burnt offerings.
Ecclesiastes 5:1 Guard your steps when you go to the house of Elohim. Go
near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know
that they do wrong.
Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly
corrupt: who can know it?
Proverbs 14:12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it
leads to death.
The Hebrew word we translate as ‘God’ is Elohim which means ‘mighty

one’. There is a distinct possibility that ‘God’ is the proper name of a false
deity. YHVH COMMANDS us not to call Him by the names of false
elohim:
Exodus 23:13 And in all things that I have said unto you take heed: and
make no mention of the name of other elohim, neither let it be heard out of
your mouth. Witness # one
Another version has it like this:
Exodus 23:13 "Be careful to do everything I have said to you. Do not

invoke the names of other elohim; do not let them be heard on your lips.
Joshua 23:7 Do not associate with these nations that remain among you; do
not invoke the names of their elohim or swear by them. You must not
serve them or bow down to them. Witness # two
57
Psalms 16:4. Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another
elohim: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their
names into my lips.
Witness # three?
There are other Scriptures that tell us in the latter days His Name and title
will be restored:
Hosea 2:16 "In that day," declares YHVH, "you will call Me `my husband'
(Hebrew Ishi); you will no longer call Me `my master (The Hebrew is Ba’ali
or my Lord). '
17 I will remove the names of the Ba’als (Lord) from her lips; no longer
will their names be invoked.
(You might want to skip ahead and read the chapter on Idols and Worship
of Them, then reread the two verses above)
18 In that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field
and the birds of the air and the creatures that move along the ground. Bow
and sword and battle I will abolish from the land, so that all may lie
down in safety.
Verse 18 shows us that “that day” has not yet come, because we still have
war. This is another thing that needs to be restored.
Zephaniah 1:4 "I will stretch out My hand against Judah and against all who
live in Jerusalem. I will cut off from this place every remnant of Baal
(Lord), the names of the pagan and the idolatrous priests (they are priests of
“the Lord God”, not of YHVH!)
5 those who bow down on the roofs to worship the starry host, ….
(false elohim of the sun, stars, and planets; see chapter on Ba’al)
….those who bow down and swear by YHVH and who also swear by
Malcham, (aka Malcam or Milcom, the national idol of the Ammonites)
6 those who turn back from following YHVH and neither seek YHVH nor
inquire of Him.
Be warned and prepared, for YHVH tells us though we may be forgiven

(but maybe not! Re: Matt. 22:13, below), there is punishment for the
unrepentant:
58
Zephaniah 1:7 Be silent before the Sovereign YHVH, for the day of
YHVH is near. YHVH has prepared a sacrifice; He has consecrated those
He has invited.
8 And it shall come to pass in the day of YHVH's sacrifice, that I will
punish the princes, and the king's children, and all such as are clothed with
strange apparel.
“Strange apparel” brings to mind the parable of the wedding clothes in

Matthew 22:11-13
Matthew 22:11 "But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a
man there who was not wearing wedding clothes.
12 `Friend,' he asked, `how did you get in here without wedding clothes?'
The man was speechless.
13 "Then the king told the attendants, `Tie him hand and foot, and throw
him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of
teeth.'
What do your ‘clothes consist of? Read Rev. chapter 3 paying close
attention to what an ‘over comer’ does, and verses 4-6 about clothes, which
are symbolic of your covering.
Revelation 3:4 But you have a few names in Sardis that did not defile their
garments: and they shall walk with me in white; for they are worthy.
5 He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot
out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge His Name before
my Father and his angels.
6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
To most who call upon ‘the Lord God’, albeit out of ignorance and lies
inherited from their fathers; they have a heart for YHVH and hold the Ten
Commandments in awe, even though they do not do the third and fourth. I
feel it is appropriate to mention the fourth commandment here because it
too, in addition to the third is ignored or explained away by traditions of the
fathers. These are some of the lies we have inherited!
The Ten Commandments
59
I have always considered the Ten Commandments to be eternal because
they were written by the finger of YHVH Himself and in stone, which is
symbolic of their everlasting nature:
Exodus 31:18 When YHVH finished speaking to Moses on Mount Sinai, he

gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, the tablets of stone inscribed by
the finger of Elohim.
Written by YHVH’s own finger! And in stone! You don’t have to be a

rocket scientist to get this one!
The Sabbath
Besides bringing the Name of YHVH to nothing, by substituting it with

‘Lord’ and a pagan deity’s name, the other command that has been ignored
is honoring one of the signs of the covenant:
Exodus 20:8-11
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9. Six days shall you labor, and do all your work:
10. But the seventh day is the Sabbath of YHVH your Elohim: in it you
shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your
manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the stranger within your
gates:
11. For in six days YHVH made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in
them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore YHVH blessed the Sabbath
day, and made it Holy.
Exodus 31:13 "Say to the Yisraelites, `You must observe My Sabbaths.

This will be a sign between Me and you for the generations to come, so
you may know that I am YHVH, who makes you Holy.
There will be chapters that cover in depth, the Sabbath and all the signs of
YHVH’s covenant.
60
The Sabbath day was changed to Sunday by Constantine, who had no
authority to do so and is in direct violation of YHVH’s command:
Deuteronomy 4:2 You shall not add unto the word which I command
you, neither shall you diminish anything from it, that you may keep the
commandments of YHVH your Elohim which I command you.
Deuteronomy 12:32 What thing I command you, observe to do it: you shall
not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
Joshua 1:7 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law
my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left,
that you may be successful wherever you go.
Proverbs 30:6 Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove
you a liar.
Revelation 22:18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of
this book: If anyone adds anything to them, Elohim will add to him the
plagues described in this book.
19 And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, Elohim
will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city,
which are described in this book.
Five witnesses! (See the chapter on “In the mouth of two or three
witnesses”) These are the some of the things that man has lied about;
passing them on generation after generation, that Jeremiah told us about:

the day of affliction, the Gentiles (goyim, those without Elohim) shall come
unto You from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have
inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
Now let’s look at what the Scriptures have to say about The Name above
all names.
61
THE NAME [ above all names]
Proverbs 30:4 Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Who has
gathered up the wind in the hollow of His hands? Who has wrapped up the
waters in His cloak? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is
His Name, and the Name of His Son? Tell me if you know!
Proverbs 30:7-9 Two things have I asked of You; Deny me them not
before I die:
8. Remove far from me falsehood and lies; Give me neither poverty nor
riches; Feed me with the food that is needful for me:
9. Lest I be full, and deny You, and say, Who is YHVH? Or lest I be poor,
and steal, and use profanely the Name of my Elohim.
From this I see that when we break the ten words (stealing) we profane His
Name!
Psalms 86:11-12 Teach me Your way, O YHVH, and I will walk in Your
Truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may reverence Your Name.
12. I will praise You, O YHVH my Elohim, with all my heart; I will
glorify Your Name forever.
Isaiah 52:6 Therefore My people will ‘know’ My Name; therefore in that

day they will know that it is I who foretold it. Behold, it is I."
The word ‘know’ in Hebrew is Strong’s # 3045: yada`
62
Phonetic: yaw-dah' It means to know or have knowledge of.
This word also denotes a very intimate knowing, as it is the same word
used in Gen. 4:1 “Adam knew Eve, his wife; and she conceived. How
intimate are you with YHVH? There is a big difference between to know of
YHVH and to ‘know’ Him.
Exodus 20:7 You shall not take the Name of YHVH your Elohim in vain;
for YHVH will not hold him guiltless that takes His Name in vain.
Exodus 20:7 "You shall not misuse the Name of YHVH your Elohim, for
YHVH will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses His Name.
My translation Shemoth 20:7 You must not carry away the Name of
YAHUAH your Elohim to bring it to nothing, because YAHUAH will not
leave unpunished the one who brings His Name to nothing. (And by not
using it, it is brought to nothing!)
Exodus 3:13-15 And Moses said unto Elohim, Behold, when I come unto
the children of Yisrael, and shall say unto them, The Elohim of your fathers
has sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is His Name? What
shall I say unto them?
14. And Elohim said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: (hayah-ash-er'-
hayah) and He said, Thus shall you say unto the children of Yisrael, I AM
has sent me unto you.
15. And Elohim said moreover unto Moses, Thus shall you say unto the
children of Yisrael, YHVH, the Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of
Avraham, the Elohim of Isaac, and the Elohim of Jacob, has sent me unto
you: this is My Name forever, and this is My memorial unto all generations.
Exodus 3:15 This is My Name forever, the Name by which I am to be

Exodus 9:16 But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might
show you My power and that My Name might be proclaimed in all the
earth.

you serve, and shall swear by His Name.

Malachi 3:16-18 Then those who reverenced YHVH spoke to one another,
and YHVH gave attention and heard, and a book of remembrance was
written before Him for those who reverence YHVH and who esteem
(honor) His Name. "And they will be Mine," says YHVH of hosts, " in the
day when I make up My treasured possession, and I will spare them as a
man spares his own son who serves him." Then shall you return and discern
between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves Elohim
and one who does not serve Him.
I don’t know about you, but I see the last sentence implying a person who
refuses to call upon His Name and serve Him, is considered wicked.
My translation of Shemoth 20:7 is “You must not carry away the Name of
YAHUAH your Elohim to bring it to nothing, because YAHUAH will not
leave unpunished the one who brings His Name to nothing.”
If you refuse to put the vowels in, like you must do, to read the rest of
Scripture; or claim a cop-out that “I don’t know for sure which vowels are
the right ones” then you are bringing His Name to nothing, because in light
of all these Scripture verses I have presented to you, He has told you His
desire for you to call upon His Name. Substituting Adonai or HaShem is
using a title instead of His Name and is not what He desires.
HIS NAME is mentioned eight times in the first five commandments, we

are told (commanded???) to call upon it, sing to it, extol it, remember it,
know it, seek it, reverence it, trust in it, rejoice in it, lift up our hands to it,
honor it, to bless it, make it known, that there is glory in it, it is great, it
shall endure forever and BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME
OF YAHWEH/ YAHVEH/YAHUAH.....YAHUSHUA!!!
His Name is NOT Jehovah, Lord God, or LORD. It is not Adonai or

HaShem, and even though Scripture says one day we will call Him “Ishi”
(my husband) none of these are His Name; they are at best titles that make
us circumvent His Word, thereby bringing His Word and His Name to no
effect.
The letter ‘J’ did not exist in the English alphabet until the 1500’s! The
Hebrew letter ‘yod’ has a ‘Y’ sound as in Yes, so to do a proper
transliteration ‘Yah’ is definitely the first syllable of the Sacred Name.
70
His Name is the four Hebrew letters, Yod, Hey, Vav, Hey. Since the
original Scriptures did not have any vowels nobody can be sure how to
pronounce it correctly.(1) My preference is YaHUaH or Yah-Hoe-WaH;
although I often just spell it out loud in Hebrew, as it appears in Scripture,
especially when praying.
I do ‘know’ that since I have been made aware of The Name, call upon it,
praise it, sing to it, etc. that not only has my prayer life changed for the
better, but my whole life has too. Now I can say:
Psalm 22:22
I make (have made) known Your Name to my brothers
(Or at least Your desire, for them, to use it rather than bring it to nothing)
Todah rabah Abba YHVH for using me to show others Your Word.

Post script:
I use Yahweh, Yahuah and Yah-hoe-wah interchangeably to show others
that none of us really know the correct pronunciation; until Moshiach returns
and tells us.
Nobody on earth knows for sure the origin of the English word god; there
is a possibility that “God” is the proper name of a Teutonic deity and if
this is so we have a direct command, with three witnesses, not to let the
names of false elohim be upon our lips or let it be heard out of our
mouth. Why take the chance of sinning by calling YHVH a “God”, which is
an accepted title, in ‘the world’, for anybodies deity. YHVH tells us He
alone is Elohim. (Isaiah 37:16 ) Allah is NOT YHVH! We are told we are
in the world but should not be of the world.
YHVH tells us He is Holy (set-apart) and we are to be Holy as He is

Holy. (Set-apart or dedicated to Him) By not calling Him by His Name
71
and by using a title that the world uses for any deity is not, in my eyes,
being set-apart or Holy; nor honoring or reverencing Him.
(Hebrew has no upper or lower case letters. I use them to differentiate

between false elohim and Elohim YHVH)
The Hebrew word translated god is Elohim which means ‘mighty one(s)’.
YHVH is The Mighty One of Yisrael! Hebrew does use the term elohim for
false elohim, but Scripture tells at least three times that these are NOT
Elohim, they are the work of men’s hands (idols); Isaiah 37:19; Jeremiah
2:11 and 16:20. And in other passages we see that false elohim have no
power, cannot see, hear, smell or walk. YHVH alone is Elohim of the earth:
Isaiah 37:16 "O YHVH Almighty, Elohim of Yisrael, enthroned between

the cherubim, You alone are Elohim over all the kingdoms of the earth.
You have made heaven and earth.
(Although I have Josephus in my library, I’ve never read it in its entirety,

so I can not substantiate the following footnote that I read in someone else’s
teaching on pronunciation of the Name.)
(1) Josephus the Jewish historian who lived before the second Temple was destroyed, being a
Cohen, claims to have heard the High Priest call the name on Yom Kippur and writes in Jewish
Antiquities that it sounded like all vowels. This would rule out YAHWEH as being correct so I
now favor YaHUaH…. until Moshiach comes to tell us all truth. (11-22-06)

SABBATH(S)
Genesis 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host
of them.
2 And on the seventh day Elohim finished His work which He had made;
and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.
3 And Elohim blessed the seventh day and made it Holy, because on it
He rested from all the work of creating that He had done.
Exodus 16:23 And he said unto them, This is that which YHVH has said,
To morrow is the rest of the Holy Sabbath unto YHVH
It is YHVH’s Sabbath not the Jews. Judah is only one tribe of twelve
(actually at the time the NTT set their own king it consisted of Judah and
Benjamin with most of the Levites living amongst them for the Temple
service).
Exodus 16:29 See, for that YHVH has given you the Sabbath, therefore
he gives you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide you every man in
his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
For proper context of this verse you need to read the preceding verses, this
was not to go out searching for manna on the Sabbath. Do not use this as an
excuse not to fellowship on Shabbat. There is a direct command in Leviticus
23:3 to have a Holy convocation on the seventh day.
Leviticus 23:3
73
Six days shall work be done: but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of
solemn rest, a Holy convocation; you shall do no manner of work: it is a
Sabbath unto YHVH in all your dwellings.
Exodus 20:8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it Holy.

9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to YHVH your Elohim. On it you
shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your
manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the stranger within your
gates.
11 For in six days YHVH made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all
that is in them, but He rested on the seventh day. Therefore YHVH
blessed the Sabbath day and made it Holy.
The Sabbath was a memorial from the creation; YHVH blessed it and
made it Holy; it is for all mankind.
Profaning the Sabbath Day

-- King James
Exodus 31:14 You shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is Holy unto
you: every one that defiles it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever does
any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Exodus 31:14 You shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is Holy unto
you: every one that profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever
does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Exodus 31:14 "Òbserve the Sabbath, because it is Holy to you. Anyone
who desecrates it must be put to death; whoever does any work on that day
must be cut off from his people.
Profanes, defiles or desecrates are translations for the Hebrew word chalal:
Strong's Ref. # 2490
Romanized chalal
74
Pronounced khaw-lal'
a primitive root [compare HSN2470]; properly, to bore, i.e. (by implication)

to wound, to dissolve; figuratively, to profane (a person, place or thing), to
break (one's word), to begin (as if by an "opening wedge")
With the death penalty as the punishment for profaning the Shabbat you
should get the idea of the importance YHVH attaches to it! More on this
subject later.
Exodus 31:15 For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day is a
Sabbath of rest, Holy to YHVH. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath
day must be put to death.
16 Wherefore the children of Yisrael shall keep the Sabbath, to observe
the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
17 It is a sign between Me and the children of Yisrael for ever: for in six
days YHVH made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day He rested, and
was refreshed.
But you say “I’m not a child of Yisrael”? Then you are not in The
Covenant of YHVH! For YHVH has not made a covenant with anyone else,
save the covenant of Noah! Be a Berean and check it out!
18 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with
him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with
the Finger of Elohim.
It is interesting and worth noting that as YHVH reiterates the Torah of

Shabbat (verses 15-17), He ties its importance to the Ten Commandments in
verse 18 “written with His finger in STONE”.
Exodus 35:3 You shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the
Sabbath day.
Exodus 35:3 Do not light a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath
day."
If the Ruach prompts me I may add a chapter on ‘fire’ on the Sabbath day
75
at the end of the book.
Other Sabbaths
If you do a careful study of the Hebrew you will find there is only one
other day that is called a Shabbat and that is Yom Kippur. (However there is
also the Sabbath year).There is another term, shabbathown, that means rest
that is used a few times, in some versions, for some of the feast days that no
work is to be done, but is erroneously called a Sabbath.
Leviticus 16:29 And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the
seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls,
and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger
that sojourns among you:
30 because on this day atonement will be made for you, to cleanse you.
Then, before YHVH, you will be clean from all your sins.
31 It shall be a Sabbath of rest unto you, and you shall afflict your souls,
by a statute for ever.
“or a stranger that sojourns among you:”
Exodus 12:49 One Torah shall be to him that is home-born, and unto the
stranger that sojourns among you.
Leviticus 23:1 YHVH said to Moses,

2 Speak unto the children of Yisrael, and say unto them, Concerning the
feasts of YHVH, which you shall proclaim to be Holy convocations, even
these are My feasts.
3 Six days shall work be done: but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of
solemn rest, a Holy convocation; you shall do no manner of work: it is a
Sabbath unto YHVH in all your dwellings.
4 These are the set feasts of YHVH, even Holy convocations, which you
shall proclaim in their appointed season.
The two mentions of Shabbathown mistranslated as Sabbath in KJV are

as follow:
-- King James
76
Leviticus 23:24 Speak unto the children of Yisrael, saying, In the seventh
month, in the first day of the month, shall you have a sabbath, a memorial of
blowing of trumpets, a Holy convocation.
39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered
in the fruit of the land, you shall keep a feast unto YHVH seven days: on the
first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.
The King James Version has it wrong while the American Standard
correctly translates it as ‘a solemn rest’.
Leviticus 23:24 Speak unto the children of Yisrael, saying, In the seventh
month, on the first day of the month, shall be a solemn rest unto you, a
memorial of blowing of trumpets, a Holy convocation.
Leviticus 23:39 Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you
have gathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep a feast unto YHVH
seven days: on the first day shall be a solemn rest, and on the eighth day
shall be a solemn rest.
Leviticus 23:26 And YHVH spoke unto Moses, saying,

27 Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of
atonement: it shall be a Holy convocation unto you; and you shall afflict
your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto YHVH.
28 And you shall do no work in that same day: for it is a day of atonement,
to make an atonement for you before YHVH your Elohim
29 For whatsoever soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he
shall be cut off from among his people.
30 And whatsoever soul it be that does any manner of work in that same
day, that soul will I destroy from among his people.
31 You shall do no manner of work: it is a statute for ever throughout your
generations in all your dwellings.
32 It is a Sabbath of rest for you, and you must deny yourselves. From the
evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening you are to
observe your Sabbath."
The Land Sabbath
77
Leviticus 25:2 Speak unto the children of Yisrael, and say unto them, When
you come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a
Sabbath unto YHVH.
3 For six years sow your fields, and for six years prune your vineyards and
gather their crops.
4 But in the seventh year the land is to have a Sabbath of rest, a
Sabbath to YHVH. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards.
5 Do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the grapes of your untended
vines. The land is to have a year of rest.
6 And the Sabbath of the land shall be for food for you; for you, and for
your servant and for your maid, and for your hired servant and for your
stranger, who sojourn with you.
7 As well as for your livestock and the wild animals in your land. Whatever
the land produces may be eaten.
The Death Penalty for Desecrating the Sabbath
Exodus 35:1 And Moses gathered all the congregation of the children of
Yisrael together, and said unto them, These are the words which YHVH has
commanded, that you should do them.
2 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day there shall be to
you a Holy day, a Sabbath of solemn rest to YHVH: whosoever does any
work therein shall be put to death.
Besides the mention above there were two others, once in Exodus 31:14
and again in verse 15, so we have three witnesses prior to the incident
below. As all Scripture cannot contradict Scripture and thus must be
reconciled; the conclusion to draw about verse 34 “because it had not been
declared what should be done to him” must be they did not know if
gathering sticks on the Sabbath was profaning it. This is another proof that
there was no oral torah given prior on Mount Sinai or Moses would have
known what to do.
Numbers 15:32 And while the children of Yisrael were in the wilderness,
they found a man gathering sticks upon the Sabbath day.
33 And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and
Aaron, and unto all the congregation.
34 And they put him under guard, because it had not been declared what
should be done to him.
78
35 Then YHVH said to Moses, "The man must die. The whole assembly
must stone him outside the camp."
36 So the assembly took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as
YHVH commanded Moses.
That YHVH commands the death penalty for anyone profaning His
Sabbath should set off an alarm in your mind as to its importance in His
eyes! (I have found forty mentions of capital punishment for twenty two
different offences in Torah. There are three mentions of the death penalty for
profaning the Sabbath, nine for murder and four other offences that have
multiple mentions).
Deuteronomy 5:12 "Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it Holy, as

YHVH your Elohim has commanded you.
13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
14 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of YHVH Your Elohim:
On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor
your manservant or maidservant, nor your ox, your donkey or any of your
animals, nor the alien within your gates, so that your manservant and
maidservant may rest, as you do.
15 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and that YHVH your Elohim
brought you out of there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm.
Therefore YHVH your Elohim has commanded you to observe the Sabbath
day.
Nehemiah’s Prayer
Nehemiah’s prayer should be a model for repentance, I suggest when you

have time to read it and study its concepts.
Nehemiah 9:14 You made known to them Your Holy Sabbath and gave
them commands, decrees and laws through your servant Moses.
16 "But they, our forefathers, became arrogant and stiff-necked, and did not
obey Your commands.
17 They refused to listen and failed to remember the miracles You
performed among them. They became stiff-necked and in their rebellion
appointed a leader in order to return to their slavery. But You are a forgiving
Elohim, gracious and compassionate; slow to anger and abounding in love.
Therefore You did not desert them,
79
26 "But they were disobedient and rebelled against You; they put Your
Torah behind their backs. They killed Your prophets, who had
admonished them in order to turn them back to You; they committed awful
blasphemies.
27 So You handed them over to their enemies, who oppressed them. But
when they were oppressed they cried out to You. From heaven You heard
them, and in Your great compassion You gave them deliverers, who rescued
them from the hand of their enemies.
28 "But as soon as they were at rest, they again did what was evil in Your
sight. Then You abandoned them to the hand of their enemies so that they
ruled over them. And when they cried out to You again, you heard from
heaven, and in Your compassion You delivered them time after time.
29 "You warned them to return to your Torah, but they became arrogant and
disobeyed Your commands. They sinned against Your ordinances, by
which a man will live if he obeys them. Stubbornly they turned their backs
on You, became stiff-necked and refused to listen.
30 For many years You were patient with them. By Your Spirit You
admonished them through Your prophets. Yet they paid no attention, so You
handed them over to the neighboring peoples.
33 In all that has happened to us, You have been just; You have acted
faithfully, while we did wrong.
38 "In view of all this, we are making a binding agreement, putting it in
writing, and our leaders, our Levites and our priests are affixing their seals to
it."
Nehemiah 10:31 "When the neighboring peoples bring merchandise or grain

to sell on the Sabbath, we will not buy from them on the Sabbath or on
any Holy day. Every seventh year we will forgo working the land and will
cancel all debts.
Nehemiah 13:15 In those days I saw men in Judah treading winepresses on

the Sabbath and bringing in grain and loading it on donkeys, together with
wine, grapes, figs and all other kinds of loads. And they were bringing all
this into Jerusalem on the Sabbath. Therefore I warned them against selling
food on that day.
16 Men from Tyre who lived in Jerusalem were bringing in fish and all
kinds of merchandise and selling them in Jerusalem on the Sabbath to the
people of Judah.
17 I rebuked the nobles of Judah and said to them, "What is this wicked
thing you are doing--desecrating the Sabbath day?
80
18 Didn't your forefathers do the same things, so that our Elohim brought
all this calamity upon us and upon this city? Now you are stirring up more
wrath against Yisrael by desecrating the Sabbath."
19 When evening shadows fell on the gates of Jerusalem before the
Sabbath, I ordered the gates to be shut and not opened until the Sabbath was
over. I stationed some of my own men at the gates so that no load could be
brought in on the Sabbath day.
22 Then I commanded the Levites to purify themselves and go and guard
the gates in order to keep the Sabbath day Holy. Remember me for this
also, O my Elohim, and show mercy to me according to Your great love.
Isaiah 1:13 Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is

detestable to me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations-- I cannot bear
your evil assemblies.
14 Your New Moon festivals and your appointed feasts my soul hates. They
have become a burden to Me; I am weary of bearing them.
15 When you spread out your hands in prayer, I will hide My eyes from
you; even if you offer many prayers, I will not listen. Your hands are full of
blood;
16 Wash, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from
before My eyes; cease to do evil;
17 learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the
cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.
18 "Come now, let us reason together," says YHVH. "Though your sins
are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as
crimson, they shall be like wool.
9 If you be willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land:
20 but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword; for the
mouth of YHVH has spoken it.
Isaiah 56:2 Blessed is the man who does this, who keeps the Sabbath
without desecrating it, the man who holds it fast, and keeps his hand from
doing any evil."
3 Neither let the sojourner, that has joined himself to YHVH, speak, saying,
YHVH will surely separate me from His people; neither let the eunuch say,
Behold, I am a dry tree.
4 For thus says YHVH of the eunuchs that keep My Sabbaths, and choose
the things that please Me, and hold fast My covenant:
81
5 Unto them will I give in My house and within My walls a memorial and a
name better than of sons and of daughters; I will give them an
everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to YHVH, to serve
Him, and to love the Name of YHVH, to be His servants, every one that
keeps the Sabbath from polluting it, and takes hold of My covenant;
7 even them will I bring to My Holy mountain, and make them joyful in My
house of prayer: their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted
upon My altar; for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all
peoples.
8 Master YHVH, who gathers the exiles of Yisrael, says, Yet will I gather
others to him, besides his own that are gathered.
Isaiah 58:1-14
Cry aloud, spare not, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and show My
people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
2. Yet they seek Me daily, and delight to know My ways, as a nation that
did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their Elohim: they ask of
Me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to Elohim.
3. Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and You see not? Wherefore have
we afflicted our soul, and You take no notice? (Thus says YHVH:) Behold, in
the day of your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.
4. Behold, you fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of
wickedness: you shall not fast as you do this day, to make your voice to
be heard on high.
5. Is it such a fast that I have chosen? A day for a man to afflict his soul? Is
it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes
under him? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to YHVH?
6. Is not this the fast that I have chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness,
to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you
break every yoke?
7. Is it not to deal your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor that
are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and
that you hide not yourself from your own flesh?
8. Then shall your light break forth as the morning, and your health shall
spring forth speedily: and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory
of YHVH shall be your reward.
82
9. Then shall you call, and YHVH shall answer; you shall cry, and He
shall say, Here I am. If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the
pointing forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;
10. And if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted
soul; then shall your light rise in obscurity and your darkness be as the
noonday:
11. And YHVH shall guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in
drought, and make fat your bones: and you shall be like a watered garden,
and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. (Psalm 1:3)
12. And they that shall be of you shall build the old waste places: you shall
rise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called, The
repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
13. If you turn away your foot on the Sabbath, from doing your own
pleasure on My Holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the Holy of
YHVH, honorable; and shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, nor
finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words:
14. Then shall you delight yourself in YHVH; and I will cause you to ride
upon the high places of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob
your father: for the mouth of YHVH has spoken it.
Jeremiah 17:20 Say to them, `Hear the Word of YHVH, O kings of Judah
and all people of Judah and everyone living in Jerusalem who come through
these gates.
21 Thus says YHVH, Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the
Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
22 neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day,
neither do you any work: but hallow you the Sabbath day, as I commanded
your fathers.
23 But they hearkened not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck
stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.
24 But if you are careful to obey Me, declares YHVH, and bring no load
through the gates of this city on the Sabbath, but keep the Sabbath day
Holy by not doing any work on it,
25 then kings who sit on David's throne will come through the gates of this
city with their officials. They and their officials will come riding in chariots
and on horses, accompanied by the men of Judah and those living in
Jerusalem, and this city shall remain forever.
26 And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places round
about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the lowland, and
from the hill-country, and from the South, bringing burnt-offerings, and
83
sacrifices, and meal-offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of
thanksgiving, unto the house of YHVH.
27 But if you will not hearken unto Me to hallow the Sabbath day, and not
to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day;
then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces
of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
Ezekiel 20:11 And I gave them My statutes, and showed them My

judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them.
12 Also I gave them My Sabbaths as a sign between us, so they would
know that I YHVH made them Holy.
13 But the house of Yisrael rebelled against Me in the wilderness: they
walked not in mM statutes, and they rejected My ordinances, which if a man
keep, he shall live in them; and My Sabbaths they greatly profaned. Then I
said I would pour out My wrath upon them in the wilderness, to consume
them.
14 But I wrought for My Name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the
sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them out.
Ezekiel 20:16 Because they despised My judgments, and walked not in My

statutes, but polluted My Sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
18 And I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk you not in the
statutes of your fathers, neither observe their ordinances, nor defile
yourselves with their idols.
19 I am YHVH your Elohim; follow my decrees and be careful to keep My
laws.
20 Keep My Sabbaths Holy, that they may be a sign between us. Then
you will know that I am YHVH your Elohim."
21 But the children rebelled against Me; they walked not in My statutes,
neither kept My ordinances to do them, which if a man do, he shall live in
them; they profaned My Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out My wrath
upon them, to accomplish My anger against them in the wilderness.
22 Nevertheless I withdrew My hand, and wrought for My Name's sake,
that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I
brought them forth.
23 Also with uplifted hand I swore to them in the desert that I would
disperse them among the nations and scatter them through the
countries,
24 because they had not obeyed My laws but had rejected My decrees and
desecrated My Sabbaths, and their eyes [lusted] after their fathers' idols.
84
Ezekiel 20:27 Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Yisrael, and
say unto them, Thus says Master YHVH: In this moreover have your
fathers blasphemed Me, in that they have committed a trespass against Me.
30 Wherefore say unto the house of Yisrael, Thus says Master YHVH: Do
you pollute yourselves after the manner of your fathers? And play you the
harlot after their abominations?
31 For when you offer your gifts, when you make your sons to pass through
the fire, you pollute yourselves with all your idols, even unto this day: and
shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Yisrael? As I live, says YHVH
Elohim, I will not be inquired of by you.
32 And that which comes into your mind shall not be at all, in that you say,
We will be as the nations, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and
stone.
33 As I live, says Master YHVH, surely with a mighty hand, and with an
outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out, I will be King over you:
34 I will bring you from the nations and gather you from the countries
where you have been scattered--with a mighty hand and an outstretched
arm and with outpoured wrath.
35 I will bring you into the desert of the nations and there, face to face, I
will execute judgment upon you.
36 Like as I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the
land of Egypt, so will I enter into judgment with you, says Master YHVH.
39 "Às for you, O house of Yisrael, this is what the Master YHVH says:
Go and serve your idols, every one of you! But afterward you will surely
listen to me and no longer profane My Holy Name with your gifts and idols.
33 As I live, says Master YHVH, surely with a mighty

hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured
out, I will be King over you:
34 I will bring you from the nations and gather you
from the countries where you have been scattered—with
a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with outpoured
wrath.
35 I will bring you into the desert of the nations and there,
face to face, I will execute judgment upon you.
85
Ezekiel 20:40 For on my Holy mountain, the high mountain of Yisrael,
declares the Master YHVH, there in the land the entire house of Yisrael will
serve Me, and there I will accept them. There I will require your offerings
and your choice gifts, along with all your Holy sacrifices.
41 I will accept you as fragrant incense when I bring you out from the
nations and gather you from the countries where you have been scattered,
and I will show Myself Holy among you in the sight of the nations.
42 Then you will know that I am YHVH, when I bring you into the land of
Yisrael, the land I had sworn with uplifted hand to give to your fathers.
43 And there shall you remember your ways, and all your doings, wherein
you have polluted yourselves; and you shall loathe yourselves in your own
sight for all your evils that you have committed.
44 And you shall know that I am YHVH, when I have dealt with you for
My Name's sake, not according to your evil ways, nor according to your
corrupt doings, O you house of Yisrael, says Master YHVH.
Amos 8:4 Hear this, you who trample the needy and do away with the poor
of the land,
5 saying, "When will the New Moon be over that we may sell grain, and the
Sabbath be ended that we may market wheat?"-- diminishing the measure,
boosting the price and cheating with dishonest scales,
6 buying the poor with silver and the needy for a pair of sandals, selling
even the sweepings with the wheat.
7 YHVH has sworn by the Pride of Jacob: "I will never forget anything
they have done”.
The Sabbath in ‘The New Testament’
Knowledge of the Pharisees rules, customs and traditions, that they

considered ‘law’ was mainly ‘oral torah’, supposedly handed down from
Moses. It is imperative to understand this to understand their accusations
against Yahshua. I have put these Jewish customs in parenthesis as ‘law’ or
‘lawful’ etc. Otherwise, without the parenthesis the terms rightfully pertain
to Torah law.
Matthew 12:1-5
86
At that time Yahshua went on the Sabbath day through the grain; and his
disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears of grain and to eat.
2. But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, your
disciples do that which is not ‘lawful’ to do upon the Sabbath day.
3. But he said unto them, Have you not read what David did, when he was
hungry, and they that were with him;
4. How he entered into the house of Elohim, and did eat the showbread,
which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him,
but only for the priests?
5. Or have you not read in the Torah, how that on the Sabbath days the
priests in the temple to do their work on the Sabbath, and are blameless?
Matthew 12:8 For the Son of man is Master even of the Sabbath day.
Matthew 12:10-12
And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked
him, saying, Is it ‘lawful’ to heal on the Sabbath days? That they might
accuse him.
11. And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall
have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the Sabbath day, will he not lay
hold on it, and lift it out?
12. How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to
do well on the Sabbath days.
Mark 1:21 And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the Sabbath
day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
Mark 6:2 When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and
many who heard him were amazed. "Where did this man get these things?"
they asked. "What's this wisdom that has been given him, that he even does
miracles!
Luke 4:16 He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the
Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood
up to read.
Luke 4:31 Then he went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the
Sabbath began to teach the people.
87
Luke 13:10 On a Sabbath Yahshua was teaching in one of the synagogues,
Above we see five instances of Yahshua going to synagogue on Shabbat.

Consider the following verse:
1 John 2:5 But if anyone obeys His Word, Elohim's love is truly made
complete in him. This is how we know we are in him:
6 Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Yahshua did.
Luke 13:10-17
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.
11. And, behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen
years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.
12. And when Yahshua saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her,
Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.
13. And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight,
and glorified Elohim.
14. And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because
Yahshua had healed on the Sabbath day, and said unto the people, There
are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be
healed, and not on the Sabbath day.
15. YHVH then answered him, and said, You hypocrite, does not each one
of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him
away to watering?
16. And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Avraham, whom Satan
has bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the
Sabbath day?
17. And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed:
and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
John 7:22-24
Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses,
but of the fathers); and you on the Sabbath day circumcise a man.
23. If a man on the Sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of
Moses should not be broken; are you angry at me, because I have made a
man every whit whole on the Sabbath day?
24. Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
88
Acts 13:27 The people of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize
Yahshua, yet in condemning him they fulfilled the words of the prophets
that are read every Sabbath.
Acts 13:42 As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people
invited them to speak further about these things on the next Sabbath.
Acts 13:44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the
word of YHVH.
Acts 15:21 For Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest
times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath."
Acts 16:13 On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river,
where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to
speak to the women who had gathered there.
Acts 17:2 and Paul, as his custom was, went in unto them, and for three
Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,
Acts 18:4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded
Jews and Greeks.
Above are seven mentions of Shabbat being kept after the cross and
resurrection. So if your Pastor tells you we keep Sunday as the Sabbath
because it is the day Yahshua arose show him what YHVH says about the
Sabbath from this restoration teaching. Do you want to obey Constantine’s
decree (a man) or YHVH’s?
Colossians 2:16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or
drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a
Sabbath day.
This is directed at the Pharisee’s ‘laws’ of what was ‘lawful’ and

‘unlawful’ that certain new converts from Orthodox Judaism were telling the
churches they were still bound to. You can read about these types in Acts
15:1 & 24, Galatians 2:4, 5:12, 2Corinthians 11:26 and especially Titus
1:10-11. In the next verse in Colossians Paul says it is for the church, which
89
had rejected the ‘oral laws’ of the Pharisees, to rightly (in the eyes of
YHVH) judge ourselves in these matters.
Exodus 31:13 & 17

13 "Say to the Yisraelites, `You must observe My Sabbaths. This will be
a sign between Me and you for the generations to come, so you may
know that I am YHVH, who does sanctify you.
17 It is a sign between Me and the children of Yisrael for ever
Basic Two House Chronology

Solomon Does Evil and YHVH’s Promise
1 Kings 11:4-6
For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his
heart after other elohim: and his heart was not perfect with YHVH his
Elohim, as was the heart of David his father.
5. For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the elohim of the Zidonians, and after
Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6. And Solomon did evil in the sight of YHVH, and went not fully after
YHVH, as did David his father.
Deuteronomy 17:14-20 lists some of duties of the King as well as things

they should not do. Solomon had probably broken all of them but especially
verse 17 inasmuch as he had about one thousand wives and concubines!
Deuteronomy 17:17 He must not take many wives, or his heart will be led
astray. He must not accumulate large amounts of silver and gold.
1 Kings 11:7-9
7. Then did Solomon build a high place for Chemosh, the abomination of
Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination
of the children of Ammon.
8. And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and
sacrificed unto their elohim.
9. And YHVH was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned
from YHVH Elohim of Yisrael, which had appeared unto him twice,
90
(Isaiah 29:13 YHVH says: "These people come near to me with their mouth
and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their
worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men.)
(Ezekiel 33:31 My people come to You, as they usually do, and sit before
You to listen to Your words, but they do not put them into practice. With
their mouths they express devotion, but their hearts are greedy for unjust
gain.)
Later we will get into a ‘right heart’ in the eyes of YHVH

1 Kings 11:10-13
10. And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go
after other elohim: but he kept not that which YHVH commanded.
11. Wherefore YHVH said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of
you, and you have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have
commanded you, I will surely rend the kingdom from you, and will give
it to your servant.
12. Notwithstanding in your days I will not do it for David your father's
sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of your son.
13. Howbeit I will not rend away all the kingdom; but will give one tribe
to your son for David my servant's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake which I
have chosen.
YHVH’s Influence on Solomon of His Chosen
1 Kings 11:28
And the man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor: and Solomon seeing
the young man that he was industrious, he made him ruler over all the charge
of the house of Joseph.
The house of Joseph included Ephraim and Manasseh. In a few instances it

was used to refer to the NTT collectively. Because their new King was from
the house of Ephraim the NTT are often called in Scripture Ephraim or
Yisrael. Please understand that Judah and Benjamin are part of the Whole
House of Yisrael, however they are usually referred to as the house of Judah.
Look for Scripture passages like “Yisrael and Judah.
YHVH’s Promise is Fulfilled
91
1 Kings 11:29-38
And it came to pass at that time when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem,
that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him in the way; and he had clad
himself with a new garment; and the two were alone in the field:
30. And Ahijah took the new garment that was on him, and ripped it in
twelve pieces:
31. And he said to Jeroboam, Take you ten pieces: for thus says YHVH,
the Elohim of Yisrael, Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of
Solomon, and will give ten tribes to you:
32. (But he shall have one tribe for my servant David's sake, and for
Jerusalem's sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of
Yisrael:)
33. Because that they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth
the elohim of the Zidonians, Chemosh the elohim of the Moabites, and
Milcom the elohim of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my
ways, to do that which is right in my eyes, and to keep my statutes and my
judgments, as did David his father.
(Exodus 20:5-6 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I,
YHVH your Elohim, am a jealous Elohim, punishing the children for the sin
of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,
6. but showing love to a thousand [ generations] of those who love me and
keep my commandments.)
This shows YHVH‘s Word does not change. David truly loved YHVH and
his linage is blessed to a thousand generations according to YHVH’s Word!
34. Howbeit I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand: but I will
make him prince all the days of his life for David my servant's sake, whom I
chose, because he kept my commandments and my statutes:
35. But I will take the kingdom out of his son's hand, and will give it unto
you, even ten tribes.
36. And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have
a light always before Me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen to put
My Name there.
37. And I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul
desires, and shall be king over Yisrael.
38. And it shall be, if you will hearken unto all that I command you, and
will walk in My ways, and do that is right in My sight, to keep My statutes
92
and My commandments, as David My servant did; then I will be with you,
and build you a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Yisrael unto
you.
Punishment for Judah, BUT NOT FOREVER/Jeroboam Flees
Judah is Yisrael’s brother and there are many promises to the house of
Judah that Yisrael is not privy to!
1 Kings 11:39-40
And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not for ever.
40. Solomon sought therefore to kill Jeroboam. And Jeroboam arose, and
fled into Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death
of Solomon.
Solomon Dies
1 Kings 11:43
And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his
father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
Rehoboam is Made King of All Yisrael
1 Kings 12:1
And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for all Yisrael were come to Shechem to
make him king.
How Yisrael Came to be Split into Two Nations (Again)
It was split after the death of King Saul. David was King over Judah for
seven years before Yisrael (the Northern Ten Tribes or NTT) recognized
him as their King too. (2 Samuel 2:11 & 5:3, 5)
1 Kings 12:2-16 & 19
93
2. And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who was yet in
Egypt, heard of it, (for he had fled from the presence of king Solomon, and
Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt;)
3. That they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all the congregation of
Yisrael came, and spoke unto Rehoboam, saying,
4. Your father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make you the
grievous service of your father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us,
lighter, and we will serve you.
5. And he said unto them, Depart yet for three days, then come again to me.
And the people departed.
6. And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, that stood before
Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do you advise that I
may answer this people?
7. And they spoke unto him, saying, If you will be a servant unto this
people this day, and will serve them, and answer them, and speak good
words to them, then they will be your servants for ever.
8. But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him,
and consulted with the young men that were grown up with him, and which
stood before him:
9. And he said unto them, What counsel give you that we may answer this
people, who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke which your father
did put upon us lighter?
10. And the young men that were grown up with him spoke unto him,
saying, Thus shall you speak unto this people that spoke unto you, saying,
Your father made our yoke heavy, but make you it lighter unto us; thus shall
you say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father's loins.
11. And now whereas my father had laden you with a heavy yoke, I will
add to your yoke: my father had chastised you with whips, but I will chastise
you with scorpions.
It seems to this author that the young men (Rehoboam’s peers) did not
want to give up the lavish life style they were accustomed to.
12. So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the
king had appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day.
13. And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men's
counsel that they gave him;
14. And spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My
father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father also
chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
94
15. Wherefore the king hearkened not unto the people; for the cause was
from YHVH, that he might perform His saying, which YHVH spoke by
Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16. So when all Yisrael saw that the king hearkened not unto them, the
people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? Neither
have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: to your tents, O Yisrael: now see to
your own house, David. So Yirael departed unto their tents.
19. So Yirael rebelled against the house of David unto this day.
Jeroboam is Made King of ‘Yisrael’
1 Kings 12:20
And it came to pass, when all Yisrael heard that Jeroboam was come again,
that they sent and called him unto the congregation, and made him king
over all Yisrael: there was none that followed the house of David, but the
tribe of Judah only.
Civil War Looms!
1 Kings 12:21-24
21. And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled all the
house of Judah, with the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and eighty
thousand chosen men, which were warriors, to fight against the house of
Yisrael, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.
22. But the word of Elohim came unto Shemaiah the man of Elohim,
saying,
23. Speak unto Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all
the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
24. Thus says YHVH, You shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren
the children of Yisrael: return every man to his house; for this thing is from
me. They hearkened therefore to the word of YHVH, and returned to depart,
according to the word of YHVH.
If you believe YHVH is omniscient try to think what purpose this served
besides punishment of Solomon’s linage. Do you think it could have
something to do with one of the covenant promises to Avraham?
Jeroboam’s Sin/Evil Acts
95
1 Kings 12:25-33
Then Jeroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and
went out from there, and built Penuel.
26. And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to
the house of David:
The Torah commands every male Yisraelite to go to where YHVH has

placed His Name, three times each year, which at this time was the newly
completed Temple in Jerusalem:
(Deuteronomy 16:16
Three times in a year shall all your males appear before YHVH your Elohim
in the place which He shall choose; in the feast of unleavened bread, and in
the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear
before YHVH empty handed.)
27. If this people go up to do sacrifice in the house of YHVH at

Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again unto their
master, even unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and
go again to Rehoboam king of Judah.
Jeroboam’s first sin is he did not believe YHVH’s promise to establish his
kingdom IF he would “walk in My ways, and do that is right in My sight, to
keep My statutes and My commandments”. His second bigger sin is below.
28. Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold, and
said unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold your
Elohim, O Yisrael, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
29. And he set the one in Bethel, and the other put he in Dan.
30. And this thing became a sin: for the people went to worship before
the one, even unto Dan.
31. And he made a house of high places, and made priests of the lowest
of the people, which were not of the sons of Levi.
32. And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the
fifteenth day of the month, like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he
offered upon the altar. So did he in Bethel, sacrificing unto the calves that he
had made: and he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places which he
had made.
96
In verse 28, they are basically calling the Golden calves YHVH!
Ephraim/Yisrael is still living these lies inherited from their fathers to this
day and will continue to do so as prophesized by Daniel:
(Daniel 7:25 And he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall
wear out the saints of the Most High; and he shall think to change the times
and the Torah.)
33. So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Bethel the fifteenth
day of the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of
his own heart; and ordained a feast unto the children of Yisrael: and he
offered upon the altar, and burnt incense.
Ignoring YHVH’s feasts and setting up other ‘high’ or ‘holidays’ is still

practiced to this day by celebrating pagan high days and giving them
Christian meanings. Do you know them?
After More Than 200 Years of Evil Kings and Repeated

Warnings the Northern Ten Tribes Are Given Into Captivity
2 Kings 17:1-8
In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to
reign in Samaria over Yisrael nine years.
2. And he did that which was evil in the sight of YHVH, but not as the
kings of Yisrael that were before him.
3. Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became
his servant, and gave him presents.
4. And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent
messengers to king So of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of
Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him
up, and bound him in prison.
5. Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to
Samaria, and besieged it three years.
6. In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and
carried Yisrael away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in
Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7. For so it was, that the children of Yisrael had sinned against YHVH their
Elohim, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the
hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other elohim,
97
8. And walked in the statutes of the heathen, whom YHVH cast out from
before the children of Yisrael, and of the kings of Yisrael, which they had
made.
From these cities the NTT were settled in, scholars have been able to
trace their subsequent migrations over the next thousand years. I recommend
Steven M. Collins books on the whereabouts of the NTT. If you Google his
name you can order his books directly from him. As he is disabled I’m sure
he makes more on direct sales then he does selling to Amazon.com, whom I
did not find to save anything on these books.
Exodus 20:5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I,
YHVH your Elohim, am a jealous Elohim, punishing the children for the sin
of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,
Exodus 20:3 "You shall have no other elohim before Me.
Exodus 20:23 Do not make any elohim to be alongside Me; do not make for
yourselves elohim of silver or elohim of gold.
Exodus 23:24 Do not bow down before their elohim or worship them or
follow their practices. You must demolish them and break their sacred
stones to pieces.
Exodus 23:32 Do not make a covenant with them or with their elohim.
Exodus 23:33 Do not let them live in your land, or they will cause you to
sin against Me, because the worship of their elohim will certainly be a snare
to you."
Exodus 34:15 "Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the
land; for when they prostitute themselves to their elohim and sacrifice to
them, they will invite you and you will eat their sacrifices.
Here are six commands/warnings from Torah (and there are many, many
more) NOT TO BE INVOLVED with false elohim (mighty ones who were
prayed to for ones welfare, because this is, our husband YHVH’s role!)
2 Kings 17:9-12
98
9. And the children of Yisrael did secretly those things that were not right
against YHVH their Elohim, and they built them high places in all their
cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
10. And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under
every green tree:
11. And there they burnt incense in all the high places, as did the heathen
whom YHVH carried away before them; and wrought wicked things to
provoke YHVH to anger:
12. For they served idols, whereof YHVH had said unto them, You shall
not do this thing.
What constitutes an ‘idol’? There is a chapter on this subject that may

have some unpleasant surprises for you! Hint: luck, fortune and destiny, as
in horoscopes and fortune tellers; lotteries and gambling. See verse 17
below.
(Isaiah 65:11 "But as for you who forsake YHVH and forget My Holy
mountain, who spread a table for Fortune and fill bowls of mixed wine for
Destiny)
2 Kings 17:13-24
13. Yet YHVH testified against Yisrael, and against Judah, by all the
prophets, and by all the seers, saying, Turn you from your evil ways, and
keep My commandments and My statutes, according to all the Torah
which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by My servants
the prophets.
14. Not withstanding they would not hear, but hardened their necks, like
the neck of their fathers, that did not believe in YHVH their Elohim.
15. And they rejected His statutes, and His covenant that He made
with their fathers, and His testimonies which He testified against them;
and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that
were round about them, concerning whom YHVH had charged them, that
they should not do like them.
16. And they left all the commandments of YHVH their Elohim, and
made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and
worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
17. And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire,
and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the
sight of YHVH, to provoke Him to anger.
99
18. Therefore YHVH was very angry with Yisrael, and removed them out
of His sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
19. Also Judah kept not the commandments of YHVH their Elohim, but
walked in the statutes of Yisrael which they made.
20. And YHVH rejected all the seed of Yisrael, and afflicted them, and
delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of His
sight.
21. For he tore Yisrael from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam
the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drove Yisrael from following
YHVH, and made them sin a great sin.
22. For the children of Yisrael walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he
did; they departed not from them;
23. Until YHVH removed Yisrael out of His sight, as He had said by all
His servants the prophets. So was Yisrael carried away out of their own
land to Assyria unto this day.
24. And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah,
and from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in
the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Yisrael: and they possessed
Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
Now you know who the Samaritans where and where they came from.
2 Kings 17:34-41
Unto this day they do after the former manners: they fear not YHVH,
neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after
the law and commandment which YHVH commanded the children of
Jacob, whom He named Yisrael;
35. With whom YHVH had made a covenant, and charged them, saying,
You shall not fear other elohim, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them,
nor sacrifice to them:
36. But YHVH, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great
power and a stretched out arm, Him shall you fear, and Him shall you
worship, and to Him shall you do sacrifice.
There is a chapter on acceptable sacrifices to YHVH that are important to

the restoration of all things, because this is another issue that Yisrael has
been lied to.
100
37. And the statutes, and the ordinances, and the law, and the
commandment, which He wrote for you, you shall observe to do for
evermore; and you shall not fear other elohim.
38. And the covenant that I have made with you shall not forget; neither
shall you fear other elohim.
39. But YHVH your Elohim you shall fear; and He shall deliver you out
of the hand of all your enemies.
40. Howbeit they did not hearken, but they did after their former manner.
41. Even while these people were worshiping YHVH, they were serving
their idols., so do they unto this day.
By rejecting YHVH’s Sabbath, Feast Days and His Torah the scattered
NTT to this day are no better off than over 2,700 years ago! The season of
our punishment is over so our blindness, deafness, and lame walk are
coming to an end in this promised Time of Restoration of All Things as the
Spirit of EliYahu returns! Our fathers blew it at the time of Yahshua, how
are you going to respond?
Romans 8:28
101
Idols and worship of them (or who provides for you?)
I believe that idols came to be when mankind turned from its creator;
then in their ignorance of He who created everything, and the laws that
control these ‘natural’ phenomenon, invented in their minds imaginary
powers that controlled them and thought that they could appease them,
through gift offerings, sacrifices and prayer. The sun, moon and stars were
often associated with these ‘elohim’ or ‘lah’.
(In Arabic the prefix al means ‘the one’ and placed before ‘lah’
becomes Allah, ‘the one god’ who Muslims proclaim is the one true god.
Before the time of Mohamed it is said that Allah was a moon ‘god’ along
with hundreds of other ‘gods’)
As these false ‘mighty ones’ proliferated, they increased in numbers to
include idols for fertility, luck, fortune, destiny etc. which are the blessings
one would normally receive from serving YHVH. These are the elohim
that YHVH commanded Yisrael not to serve, nor learn of the ways; they
were not to be worshipped and commanded to destroy their altars. (Exodus
34:12-17)
Exodus 34:12 Be careful not to make a covenant with those who live in
the land where you are going, or they will be a snare among you.
13 but you shall break down their altars, and break in pieces their pillars,
and you shall cut down their Asherim;
14 for you shall worship no other elohim (false mighty ones): for YHVH,
who name is Jealous, is a jealous Elohim:
15 lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they play
the harlot after their elohim, and sacrifice unto their elohim, and one call
you and you eat of his sacrifice;
102
16 And when you choose some of their daughters as wives for your sons
and those daughters prostitute themselves to their elohim, they will lead
your sons to do the same. (As the NTT have mixed with the whole world,
to bring about the purpose and intents of YHVH, it is easy to see why they
are so ‘of the world’ with their many idols.)
17 You shall make no molten elohim.
This passage above is an elucidation of the first two of the Ten

Commandments. Verse 17 is a specific reference of the second
commandment of no graven images.
Below are some of the ancient idols that were prolific among those
people who had turned away from YHVH. This is presented to give you a
better understanding of the customs of ancient times that the children of
Yisrael were up against and to understand better why they were an
abomination to YHVH. I encourage you to do some on-line research of
your own.
Easton’s Bible Dictionary

Ba’al
Test: lord.
The name appropriated to the principal male god of the Phoenicians. It is

found in several places in the plural BAALIM (Judg. 2:11; 10:10; 1 Kings
18:18; Jer. 2:23; Hos. 2:17). Baal is identified with Molech (Jer. 19:5). It
was known to the Israelites as Baal-peor (Num. 25:3; Deut. 4:3), was
worshipped till the time of Samuel (1 Sam 7:4), and was afterwards the
religion of the ten tribes in the time of Ahab (1 Kings 16:31-33; 18:19, 22).
it prevailed also for a time in the kingdom of Judah (2 Kings 8:27; comp.
11:18; 16:3; 2 Chr. 28:2). until finally put to an end to by the severe
discipline of the Captivity (Zeph. 1:4-6).
The priests of Baal were in great numbers (1 Kings 18:19), and of various
classes (2 Kings 10:19). Their mode of offering sacrifices is described in 1
Kings 18:25-29. The sun-god, under the general title of Baal, or “lord,”
was the chief object of worship of the Canaanites. Each locality had its
special Baal, and the various local Baals were summed up under the name
of Baalim, or “lords”. Each Baal had a wife, who was a colorless reflection
of himself.
103
(Jeremiah 19:5) They have built the high places of Baal to burn their sons
in the fire as offerings to Baal—something I did not command or mention,
nor did it enter My mind).

Ba’alath-be’er
Text: Baalah of the well, (Josh. 19:8, probably the same as Baal,
mentioned
in 1 Chr. 4:33 a city of Simeon.

Baal’bec
Text: called by the Greeks Heliopolis i.e., “the city of “the sun”, because
of
its famous Temple of the Sun

Baa’al-be’rith
Text: covenant lord, the name of the god worshipped in Shechem after the
death of Gideon (Judg. 8:33; 9:4) In 9:46 he called simply “the god
Berith.” The name denotes the god of the covenant into which the Israelites
entered with the Canaanites, contrary to the command of YHVH (Ex.
34:12), when they began to fall away to the worship of idols.

Ba’al-gad
Text: lord of fortune, or troop of Baal, a Canaanite city in the valley

ofLebanon at the foot of Hermon, hence called Baal-hermon (Judge. 3:3; 1
Chr. 5:23), near the source of the Jordan (Josh, 13:5; 11:17; 12:7). It was
the most northern point to which Joshua’s conquests extended. It probably
derived its name from the worship of Baal. Its modern representative is
Banias. Some have supposed it to be the same as Baalbec.
104
Ba’al-her’mon
Text: lord of Hermon.
1. A city near Mount Hermon inhabited by the Ephraimites (1 Chr. 5:23).

Probably identical with Baal-gad (Josh. 11:17).
2. A mountain east of Lebanon (Judg. 3:3). Probably it may be the same as

Mount Hermon, or one of its three peaks.

Ba’alim
Text: plural of Baal; images of the god Baal (Judg. 2:11; 1 Sam. 7:4).

Ba’al-me’on
Text: lord of dwelling, a town of Reuben (Num. 32:38), called also

Bethmeon (Jer. 48:23) and Beth-baal-meon (Josh. 13:17). It is supposed to
have been the birth-place of Elisha.

Ba’al-pe’or
Text: lord of ‘the opening’, a god of the Moabites (Num. 25:3; 31:16; Josh.
22:17), worshipped by obscene rites. So called from Mount Peor, where
this worship was celebrated, the Baal of Peor. The Israelites fell into the
worship of this idol (Num. 25:3, 5, 18; Deut. 4:3; Ps. 106:28; Hos. 9:10).

Ba’al-ta’mar
105
Text: lord of palm trees, a place in the tribe of Benjamin near Gibeah of
Saul (Judg. 20:33). It was one of the sanctuaries or groves of Baal.

Ba’al-ze’bub
Text: fly-lord, the god of the Philistines at Ekron (2 Kings 1:2, 3, 16. This
name was give to the god because he was supposed to be able to avert the
plague of flies which in that region was to be feared.
Above we see ten mentions of Ba’al from Easton’s Bible Dictionary
and all have Ba’al as ‘lord’. In light of this and after reading the
preceding chapters on ‘Names and Titles’ and ‘The Name Above All
Names’ do you still think we should call YHVH the Mighty One of
Yisrael by the same title?
The Web Bible Encyclopedia connects Milcom with Moloch. (This is

probably due to Jeremiah 19:5)
Milcom (Malcam, Malkam, Malcham, Milkowm)

Meaning: High king; their king
This was the name of the god of the Ammonite people. 2 Kings 23:13
calls it “the abomination of the children of Ammon.” This was one of the
idols that the disobedient King Solomon honored with a high place
building on the Mount of Olives (1 Kings 11:5, 7, 33). Good King Josiah
later destroyed the structure (2 Kings 23:13) Milcom may also have been
known as Molech or Moloch (1 Kings 11:7)
Moloch (Molech, Milcom, Malcham)

Meaning: king
The name of the national god of the Ammonites, to whom children
were sacrificed by fire.
He was the consuming and destroying and also at the same time the
purifying fire. In Amos 5:26, “your Moloch” of the Authorized Version is
“your king” in the Revised Version (compare Acts 7:43). Solomon (1
Kings 11:7) erected a high place for this idol on the Mount of Olives, and
from that time till the days of Josiah his worship continued (2 Kings 23:10,
13). In the days of Jehoahaz it was partially restored, but after the Captivity
wholly disappeared. He is also called Molech (Lev. 18:21; 20:2-5, etc),
106
Milcom (1Kings 11:5, 33, etc.), and Malcham (Zeph. 1:5). This god
became Chemosh among the Moabites.
Author of above: Matthew G. Easton.
One of the places that Moloch was worshipped was in Tophet, “in the
valley of the son of Hinnom, very near Jerusalem, where the image of
Moloch (that god of unnatural cruelty, as others were of unnatural
uncleanness) was kept, to which some sacrificed their children, burning
them in the fire, others dedicated them, making them pass through the fire
(2 Kings 23:10), labouring in the very fire, Habbukah 2:13. It is supposed
to have been called Tophet from toph, a drum, because they beat drums at
the burning of the children, that their shrieks might not be heard.
“This god became Chemosh among the Moabites”
This shows the commonality of the various nations adopting the idols of
each other and giving them a different name. A major portion of these
were attributed to the sun worship that originated with Nimrod. (He is
attributed as being the first man to be worshipped as the sun ‘god’) I feel
when YHVH confused their speech (Gen. 11:1, 4 & 7) at the tower of
Babel, each group came up their own name for him. For further
understanding how influential Nimrod was I highly recommend you take a
brief break to check out Nimrod on Wikipedia on-line.
Leviticus 20:1-5 states a man who sacrifices any of his children to

Molech is to be stoned to death. Lev. 18:21; Duet. 12:31 and 18:10 are
other witnesses to the abomination that Molech was in YHVH’s eyes.
Included are anyone who practices divination, tells fortunes, cast spells,
consults spirits, inquires of the dead, is a wizard, or charmer of magic.
Idols can be any number of things that make us deny, or turn from the
things YHVH wants us to seek from Him! Seeking riches through ‘luck’
or wondering what life has in store for often turns people to horoscopes
and fortune tellers. Yahshua tells us that love of money (mammon) cannot
exist with love of YHVH that we will love one and hate the other.
This brings me to a modern day idol: the idol of science. Over the past
few hundreds of years, as man started discovering the laws that govern the
physical universe, many scientists lost sight that there is One who created
it all. Science has become, to many scientist but not all, an idol that does
107
away with our Creator and replaces Him with evolution and the big bang;
thus elevating men to mighty ones controlling their own destiny for
understanding these ‘natural’ phenomenon; that YHVH made in the first
place, thus denying Him and taking credit for ‘their intellect’.
YHVH being the Creator of all things and the laws of physics that
govern their function can use them for His desire and purposes at any time.
If you doubt this, think of how many of the miracles of Scripture actually
happened or how will all the end times ‘natural’ disasters occur on the
schedule YHVH has proscribed for them come to be? All YHVH has to do
is speak it and it will come to pass.
YHVH wants to be a ‘husband’ to us to provide our every need. As

‘wives’ we have to run our households to please Him. This said, what
came to my mind, in a new light, is the wife’s blessing that I read over my
wife every erev Shabbat, after I have blessed my children. Put yourself as
the ‘she’ in this blessing and I think you may see it another way. Todah
rabah Abba.
Proverbs 31
10 Who does find capable wife? For she is worth far more than rubies.
11 The heart of her husband shall trust her, And he has no lack of gain.
12 She shall do him good, and not evil, All the days of her life.
13 She shall seek wool and flax, And with delight she works with her
hands.
14 She shall be as the ships of Tarshish, She brings in her food from afar.
15 She also rises while it still night, And provides food for her household,
And a portion for her girls.
16 She shall consider a field and buy it; From her profits she shall plant a
vineyard.
17 She shall gird herself with strength. And strengthen her arms.
18 She shall taste when her gain is good; Her lamp does not go out by
night.
19 She shall stretch out her hands to the distaff, And her hand shall hold
the spindle.
20 She shall extend her hand to the poor, And she shall reach out her hands
to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of snow for her household, For all her household is
dressed in scarlet.
108
22 She shall make tapestry for herself; She is dressed in fine linen and
purple.
23 Her husband in known in the gates, When he sits among the elders of
the land.
24 She shall make fine linens and sell them, And shall give sashes for
merchants.
25 Strength and splendor are her garments, And she rejoices in time to
come.
26 She shall open her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the Torah
of kindness.
27 She watches over the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread
of idleness.
28 Her children shall rise up and call her blessed; Her husband too, and he
praises her.
29 “Many daughters have done nobly, But you have risen over them all.”
30 Loveliness is deceptive and prettiness is vain, A woman who fears
YHVH is to be praised.
31 Give her the fruit of her hands, And let her works praise her in the
gates.
WHO IS YOUR ELOHIM (mighty one)? Who provides for

you? As for me and my house I choose YHVH!
109
THE RE-GATHERING ( or you can’t be gathered until
you been scattered )
and
THE CURSE: To be Scattered (but for a reason)
There are a lot of e-mails circulating that show many are worried about
Imminent world war, one world order, end times etc. Be comforted! For in
His Word He has told us the end from the beginning and there is still time
to return to Him with all your heart and all your soul. (This is from a teaching
from 2003, that I edited and expanded upon; whose purpose was to show that
the return from Babylon by Judah was NOT the return that is prophesied so
many times because Judah never had a king of their own after their return.)
Note: I use Yisrael for the whole house of Yisrael and the Kingdom to
differentiate between the modern Nation of Israel.
The Scattering or Dispersion

Leviticus 26:14-16,28 & 33
"`But if you will not listen to Me and carry out all these commands,
15 and if you reject My decrees and abhor My laws and fail to carry out all
my commands and so violate My covenant,
16 then I will do this to you:
28 in my anger I will be hostile toward you, and I Myself will punish you for
your sins seven times over. (This is the punishment we are just coming out
of. Re: Ezekiel 4:5 390 days x 7 = 2730 years!)
110
33 I will scatter you among the nations and will draw out My sword and
pursue you. Your land will be laid waste, and your cities will lie in ruins.
Witness one.
Deuteronomy 4:27-29
YHVH will scatter you among the peoples, and only a few of you will
survive among the nations to which YHVH will drive you. Witness two.
28 And there you shall serve elohim, the work of men's hands, wood and
stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
29. But if from there you seek YHVH your Elohim, you will find Him if you
look for Him with all your heart and with all your soul.
because you would not obey the voice of YHVH your Elohim.
63. And it shall come to pass, that as YHVH rejoiced over you to do you
good, and to multiply you; so YHVH will rejoice over you to destroy you, and
to bring you to naught; and you shall be plucked from off the land wherever
you go to possess it.
64. And YHVH shall scatter you among all people, from the one end of
the earth even unto the other; and there you shall serve other elohim, which
neither you nor your fathers have known, even wood and stone. Witness three.
Jeremiah 9:13-16
And YHVH says, Because they have forsaken My Torah which I set before
them, and have not obeyed My voice, neither walked therein;
14. But have walked after the imagination of their own heart, and after
Ba’alim, which their fathers taught them:
15. Therefore thus says YHVH of hosts, the Elohim of Yisrael; Behold, I
will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall
to drink.
16. I will scatter them also among the heathen, whom neither they nor their
fathers have known: and I will send a sword after them, till I have consumed
them. Witness four.
Jeremiah 15:14
And I will make you to pass with your enemies into a land which you
know not: for a fire is kindled in My anger, which shall burn upon you.
Witness five.
Ezekiel 12:15 And they shall know that I am YHVH, when I shall scatter
111
them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries. Witness six.
Ezekiel 20:23-24 Moreover I swore unto them in the wilderness, that I

would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the
countries; Witness seven.
24. because they had not executed My ordinances, but had rejected My
statutes, and had profaned My Sabbaths, and their eyes were after their
fathers' idols.
(We can learn ambitions and dreams from our fathers, which left unchecked
can lead to coveting and idolatry.)
Ezekiel 22:14-15 And I will scatter you among the nations, and disperse
you through the countries; and I will consume your filthiness out of you.
Witness eight.
15 Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I shall
deal with you? I, YHVH, have spoken it, and will do it.
Zechariah 7:13-14
Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they
cried, and I would not hear, says YHVH of hosts:
14. But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom
they knew not. Thus the land was desolate after them, that no man passed
through nor returned: for they laid the pleasant land desolate. Witness nine.
Nehemiah 1:8
Remember, I beseech you, the Word that you commanded Your servant
Moses, saying, If you transgress, I will scatter you abroad among the
nations: Witness ten.
Ezekiel 36:19-20
And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through
the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged
them. Witness eleven.
20. And when they entered unto the heathen, wherever they went, they
profaned My Holy Name, when they said to them, These are the people of
YHVH, and are gone forth out of his land.
Jeremiah 16:13 So I will throw you out of this land into a land neither you
nor your fathers have known, and there you will serve other elohim day and
112
night, for I will show you no favor.' Witness thirteen.
Thirteen witnesses! Do you think maybe YHVH was trying to get a

message through some thick skulls? But do not fret, this study has twenty six
different witnesses that YHVH promises to re-gather us! That’s twice as many
as above!
But first let’s look at some of the reasons He was doing it. Four of the
passages above give the some of the reasons why and here are a few more.
WHY
The obvious is the ‘if you/then I will’ consequences of their actions; but
there is another less obvious one that may surprise you. I call it “I have told
you the end from the beginning.”
Jeremiah 16:11-13
Then shall you say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken Me, says
YHVH, and have walked after other elohim, and have served them, and have
worshipped them, and have forsaken Me, and have not kept My Torah;
12. And you have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, you walk
every one after the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not hearken
unto Me:
13. Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that you know not,
neither you nor your fathers; and there shall you serve other Elohim day and
night; where I will not show you favor.
But YHVH is forgiving and full of mercy, even in our punishment we are
blessed over those who are not His chosen and don’t know Him.
Jeremiah 5:22-26
Fear you not me? Says YHVH: will you not tremble at My presence, He
who has placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it
cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet they can not
prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?
23. But this people has a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted
and gone away.
24. Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear YHVH our Elohim, that
gives rain, both the former and the latter, in His season: He reserves unto us
the appointed weeks of the harvest. (Compare John 4:35-36)
25. Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have
113
withheld good things from you.
26. For among My people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that
sets snares; they set a trap, they catch men. (Revelation 18:13, last four
words)
Ezekiel 36:21-23
21. But I had pity for My Holy Name, which the house of Yisrael has
profaned among the heathen, wherever they went.
22. Therefore say unto the house of Yisrael, Thus says YHVH Elohim; I do
not this for your sakes, O house of Yisrael, but for My Holy Name's sake,
which you have profaned among the heathen, wherever you went.
23. And I will sanctify My Great Name, which was profaned among the
heathen, which you have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen
shall know that I am YHVH, says YHVH Elohim, when I shall be
sanctified in you, before their eyes.
Until the time we truly repent, seeking Him with all our heart (which will
be shown by our actions) and stop profaning His Name (and all that it stands
for), we do not appear to be sanctifying YHVH in others eyes, rather we are
perceived as hypocrites!
Jeremiah 7:23-28 & 8

But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey My voice, and I will be your
Elohim, and you shall be My people: and walk you in all the ways that I have
commanded you, that it may be well unto you.
24. But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the
counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and
not forward.
26 Yet they hearkened not unto Me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their
neck: they did worse than their fathers.
28 But you shall say unto them, This is a nation that obeys not the voice of
YHVH their Elohim, nor receives correction: Truth is perished, and is cut
off
from their mouth.
8 Behold, you trust in lying words, that cannot profit.
One of these lies is that Torah is the “old” covenant or it is for the Jews and
for not us; when in fact the “new” covenant is to have His Torah written upon
our hearts and DO IT!
114
We have been told the end from the beginning
(Or other reasons for the scattering and blindness)
Genesis 12:3 I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will
curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." Witness one.
Genesis 26:4-5
And I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give
unto your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of
the earth be blessed; Witness two.
5. Because Abraham obeyed My voice, and kept mMy charge, mMy
commandments, My statutes, and My laws.
Genesis 18:18-19
Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all
the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? Witness three.
19. For I know him, that he will command his children and his household
after him, and they shall keep ‘the Way’ of YHVH, to do justice and
judgment; that YHVH may bring upon Abraham that which he has spoken of
him.
Genesis 28:14 Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you
will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All
peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring. Witness
four.
Genesis 22:18
And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because
you have obeyed my voice. Witness four.
“because you have obeyed me."
Obeying is the proof that our belief is real and not just a statement from our
mind. Actions speak louder than words!
James 2:14 & 18

What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has
115
no works? Can such faith save him?
18 But someone will say, "You have faith; I have works." Show me your
faith without works, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
Acts 3:25 You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which
Elohim made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in your seed shall
all the peoples of the earth be blessed. Witness six.
Here is Paul’s’ summation of what this blessing really is:
Galatians 3:8 & 6

The Scripture foresaw that Elohim would justify the Gentiles by faith, and
announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: "All nations will be blessed
through you."
6 Even as Abraham believed Elohim, and it was reckoned unto him for
righteousness.
Because a Re-gathering was in the plan

Jeremiah 16:14-16
Therefore, behold, the days come, says YHVH, that it shall no more be said,
YHVH lives, that brought up the children of Yisrael out of the land of Egypt;
15. But, YHVH lives, that brought up the children of Yisrael from the land
of the north, and from all the lands wherever he had driven them: and I will
bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers. Witness one.
16. Behold, I will send for many fishers, says YHVH, and they shall fish
them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from
every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
Whose mountain, hill or hole in the rocks have you been hiding in?
Christianity has over 5,000 denominations, many claiming their beliefs are
the only correct one! YHVH was the only correct Way!
Deuteronomy 30:3
That then YHVH your Elohim will turn your captivity, and have compassion
upon you, and will return and gather you from all the nations, wherever
YHVH your Elohim has scattered you. Witness two.

captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the
places wherever I have driven you, says YHVH; and I will bring you again
into the place where I caused you to be carried away captive. Witness three.
Jeremiah 32:37-41
Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, where I have driven them in
My anger, and in My fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again
unto
this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely: Witness four.
38. And they shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim:
39. And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear Me for
ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:
40. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn
away from them, to do them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts, that
they shall not depart from Me.
41. Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in
this land assuredly with My whole heart and with My whole soul.
Jeremiah 23:3
And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries wherever I
have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall
be fruitful and increase. Witness five.
Jeremiah 33:7-9
I will bring Judah and Yisrael back from captivity, and will build them, as
at the first. Witness six.
8. And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned
against Me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned,
and whereby they have transgressed against Me.
9. And it shall be to Me a Name of joy, a praise and an honor before all the
nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and
they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I
provide for it.
Jeremiah 30:3
117
For, lo, the days come, says YHVH, that I will turn again the captivity of My
people Yisrael and Judah, says YHVH: and I will cause them to return to
the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it. Witness seven.
Isaiah 11:12-13
And He shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the
outcasts of Yisrael, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the
four corners of the earth. Witness eight.
13. The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah
shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex
Ephraim.
Jeremiah 32:44
Men shall buy fields for money, and deeds will be signed, sealed and
witnessed in the territory of Benjamin,, and in the places about Jerusalem, and
in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the
valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to
return, says YHVH. Witness nine.
Jeremiah 33:11
For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, says
YHVH.
Witness ten.
Ezekiel 20:41-44
I will accept you with your sweet savor, when I bring you out from the
people, and gather you out of the countries wherein you have been
scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen. Witness eleven.
42. And you shall know that I am YHVH, when I shall bring you into the
land of Yisrael, into the country for the which I lifted up My hand to give
it to your fathers. Witness twelve.
43. And there shall you remember your ways, and all your doings, wherein
you have been defiled; and you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for
all your evils that you have committed.
44. And you shall know that I am YHVH when I have wrought with you for
My Name's sake, not according to your wicked ways, nor according to your
corrupt doings, O you house of Yisrael, says YHVH Elohim.
118
Everyone really needs to know, from what Scripture tells us, what is evil
and wicked in YHVH’s eyes. There is a chapter on what is evil in the eyes of
YHVH; if you skip over any chapters make sure that you read this one.
Ezekiel 11:16-17
Therefore say, thus says YHVH Elohim; although I have cast them far off
among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries,
yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall
come.
17. Therefore say, Thus says YHVH Elohim; I will even gather you from
the people, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been
scattered, and I will give you the land of Yisrael. Witness thirteen.
Ezekiel 34:11-16 & 23

For thus says YHVH Elohim; Behold, I, even I, will both search My sheep,
and seek them out.
12. As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep
that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of
all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
13. And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the
countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the
mountains of Yisrael by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the
country. Witness fourteen.
14. I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of
Yisrael shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat
pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Yisrael.
15. I will feed My flock, and I will cause them to lie down, says YHVH
Elohim.
16. I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven
away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which
was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with
judgment.
23. And I YHVH will be their Elohim, and my servant David a prince
among them; I YHVH have spoken it.
This last statement proves the return from Babylonian captivity was not this
prophesized return because Yisrael never had a king after the first return and
the last return is FOREVER.
Ezekiel 28:25-26
119
Thus says YHVH Elohim; When I shall have gathered the house of Yisrael
from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified
in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that
I have given to my servant Jacob. Witness fifteen.
26. And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant
vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed
judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall
know that I am YHVH their Elohim.
Ezekiel 37:22-28
And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of
two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at
all.
23. Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with
24. And David My servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have
one shepherd: they shall also walk in My judgments, and observe My
25. And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My
they, and their children, and their children's children forever: and My servant
David shall be their prince forever. Witness sixteen.
and will set My sanctuary in the midst of them forevermore.
27. My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their Elohim, and
28. And the heathen shall know that I YHVH do sanctify Yisrael, when My
sanctuary shall be in the midst of them forevermore.
Jeremiah 16:19-21
O YHVH, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of
shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein
there is no profit.
20. Shall a man make elohim unto himself, and they are not elohim?
120
21. Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them
to know My hand and My might; and they shall ‘know’ that My Name is
YHVH.
Jeremiah 29:10-14
I will visit you, and perform My good word toward you, in causing you to
return to this place. Witness seventeen.
11. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says YHVH, thoughts
of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12. Then shall you call upon Me, and you shall go and pray unto Me, and I
will hearken unto you.
13. And you shall seek Me, and find Me, when you shall search for Me
with all your heart.
captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the
places wherever I have driven you, says YHVH; and I will bring you again
into the place where I caused you to be carried away captive. Witness eighteen.
Ezekiel 36:24-37
countries, and will bring you into your own land. Witness nineteen.
26. A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you:
and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a
heart of flesh.
shall be My people, and I will be your Elohim. Witness twenty.
29. I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the
grain, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
30. And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that
you shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.
31. Then shall you remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were
not good, and shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and
for your abominations.
32. Not for your sakes do I this, says YHVH Elohim, be it known unto you:
be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Yisrael.
33. Thus says YHVH Elohim; In the day that I shall have cleansed you from
121
all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the waste
places shall be built.
34. And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight
of all that passed by.
35. And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden
of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become fenced, and
are inhabited. (Judah has already started the fulfillment of this!)
36. Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I YHVH
build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I YHVH have
spoken it, and I will do it.
37. Thus says YHVH Elohim; Yet for this I will be inquired of by the house
of Yisrael, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.
Sounds to me like we have to ask YHVH to bring His promises to pass!

Especially on behalf of Ephraim, Manasseh and the NTT as a whole.
Verses 34 and 35 is being fulfilled in our day as Judah has started the return.
I’m sure there were many, many prayers prior to this from Judah.
Nehemiah 1:9
But if you turn unto Me, and keep My commandments, and do them;
though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, yet
will I gather them from there, and will bring them unto the place that I have
chosen to set My Name there. Witness twenty one.
Deuteronomy 30:4 Even if you have been banished to the most distant land
under the heavens, from there YHVH your Elohim will gather you and
bring you back. Witness twenty two.
Psalms 147:2 YHVH does build up Jerusalem: He gathers together the

outcasts of Yisrael. Witness twenty three.
Isaiah 11:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that YHVH will set His
hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people, that
shall remain, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from
Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the
islands of the sea. Witness twenty four.
Isaiah 43:5-6 & 8-9
122
Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the
east and gather you from the west. Witness twenty five.
6 I will say to the north, `Give them up!' and to the south, `Do not hold them
back.' Bring My sons from afar and My daughters from the ends of the earth.
8 Lead out those who have eyes but are blind, who have ears but are deaf.
9 All the nations gather together and the peoples assemble. Which of them
foretold this and proclaimed to us the former things? Let them bring in their
witnesses to prove they were right, so that others may hear and say, "It is
true."
Jeremiah 23:8 But, as YHVH lives, who brought up and who led the seed
of the house of Yisrael out of the north country, and from all the
countries where I had driven them. And they shall dwell in their own
land. Witness twenty six.!
Blinded
Scripture tells us Yisrael has been blinded in part and there is a reason: so
the gospel could go out to the whole earth until the appropriate time:
Romans 11:25 I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so

that you may not be conceited: Yisrael has experienced a hardening in part
until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.
Galatians 3:8
The Scripture foresaw that Elohim would justify the Gentiles by faith, and
announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: "All nations will be blessed
through you."
Deuteronomy 29:4 But to this day YHVH has not given you a mind that
understands or eyes that see or ears that hear.
Isaiah 6:9-10
And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear you indeed, but understand not;
and see you indeed, but perceive not.
10. Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut
their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and
understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
123
Jeremiah 5:21-22
Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have
eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not: (Blind and deaf!)
22. Fear you not Me? says YHVH: will you not tremble at My presence?
Jeremiah 6:9-10
Thus says YHVH of hosts, They shall thoroughly glean the remnant of Yisrael
as a vine and turn back your hand as a grape gatherer into the baskets.
10. To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? Behold,
their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the Word of
YHVH is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.
Hosea 8:12 I have written to him the great things of My law

(Torah), but they were counted as a strange thing.
Jeremiah 5:21
Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have
eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:
Deuteronomy 29:4
Yet YHVH has not given you a heart to perceive, and eyes to see, and ears
to hear, unto this day.
Romans 11:7-8
What then? Yisrael has not obtained that which he seeks for; but the elect
have obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
8 As it is written: "Elohim gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they could
not see and ears so that they could not hear, to this very day."
“ ‘The elect’ have obtained it”; YHVH seems to have always had at least
seven thousand who have not bent the knee to Ba’al. The falling away from
YHVH’s Truth had already started in Paul’s days. (Re: 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4;
1 Timothy 4:1 and 1 John 2:18-19)
Think you might qualify to be called part of the elect? Look around you, are
you on a broad road were there are a lot of others? Or is your road a narrow
and straight one with not too many others; while doing what these verses have
124
been telling you: obeying what YHVH’s will is for His people?
Matthew 13:14-15
And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which says, By hearing you
shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see, and shall not
perceive:
15. For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing,
and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their
eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and
should be converted, and I should heal them.
Isaiah 43:8 Lead out those who have eyes but are blind, who have ears but are
deaf.
9 All the nations gather together and the peoples assemble. Which of them
foretold this and proclaimed to us the former things? Let them bring in their
witnesses to prove they were right, so that others may hear and say, "It is
true."
Matthew 13:16-17
But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17. For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have
desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to
hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.
Hardness of Heart and Spirits of Deceit

Jeremiah 9:6
Your habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to
‘know’ Me, says YHVH.
Consider the following two passages:
1 Kings 22:19-22
And he said, Hear you therefore the word of YHVH: I saw YHVH sitting on
his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right hand and
on His left.
125
20 And YHVH said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at
Ramothgilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner.
21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before YHVH, and said, I will
persuade him.
22 `By what means?' YHVH asked. Ì will go out and be a lying spirit
in the mouths of all his prophets,' he said. `You will succeed in enticing him,'
`Go and do it.'
Romans 8:28 And we know that to them that love Elohim all things work
together for good, even to them that are called according to His purpose.
YHVH’s plans and purposes WILL BE DONE! So we need to know that

judgment is coming soon and the door will close with nobody being able to
open it!
Jeremiah 8:7
Yea, the stork in the heaven knows her appointed times; and the turtle and the
crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but My people know
not the judgment of YHVH.
Jeremiah 29:13
your heart.
This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set
before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you
and your children may live,
20. and that you may love YHVH your Elohim, listen to His voice, and hold
fast to Him. For YHVH is your life, and He will give you many years in the
land He swore to give to your fathers, Avraham, Isaac and Jacob.
See, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil;
16. In that I command you this day to love YHVH your Elohim, to walk in
his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his
judgments, that you may live and multiply: and YHVH your Elohim shall
bless you in the land where you go to possess it.
Deuteronomy 4:29-31
126
And if from there you shall seek YHVH your Elohim, you shall find Him, if
you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.
30. When you are in tribulation, and all these things are come upon you,
even in the latter days, if you turn to YHVH your Elohim, and shall be
obedient unto His voice; (Tribulation in the latter days? !!!)
31. (For YHVH your Elohim is a merciful Elohim;) He will not forsake you,
neither destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers which He
swore unto them.
Jeremiah 33:2-3 "This is what YHVH says, He who made the earth, YHVH
who formed it and established it--YHVH is His name:
3 `Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and mighty things
you do not know.'
Jeremiah 29:13-14
your heart.
captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations.
Isaiah 45:3 I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored in secret
places, so that you may know that I am YHVH, the Elohim of Yisrael, who
summons you by name.
Amos 5:8, 4 & 6

Seek Him that makes the seven stars and Orion, and turns the shadow
of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night: that calls for the
waters of the sea, and pours them out upon the face of the earth: YHVH is His
name:
4 For thus says YHVH unto the house of Yisrael, Seek Me, and you shall
live:
6 Seek YHVH and live, or He will sweep through the house of Joseph like
a fire; it will devour, and Bethel will have no one to quench it.
The house of Joseph is not the house of Judah!
Amos 5:12-15
127
For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict
the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their
right.
13. Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.
14. Seek good, and not evil, that you may live: and so YHVH, the Elohim of
hosts, shall be with you, as you have spoken.
15. Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may
be that YHVH Elohim of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of
Joseph.
Be comforted; for the restoration of all things is upon us. Let your heart be
circumcised, repent of the evil and lies we have been taught!
Ezekiel 20:11-12
And I gave them My statutes, and showed them My judgments, which if a
man does, he shall even live in them.
12. Moreover also I gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign between Me and
them, that they might know that I am YHVH that sanctifies them.
Ezekiel 20:19-20
I am YHVH your Elohim; walk in My statutes, and keep My judgments, and
do them;
20. And hallow My Sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between Me and
you, that you may know that I am YHVH your Elohim.
Jeremiah 3:13-15
Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against YHVH
your Elohim, and have scattered your ways to the strangers under every green
tree, and you have not obeyed My voice, says YHVH.
14. Turn, O backsliding children, says YHVH; for I am married unto you:
and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to
Zion:
15. And I will give you pastors according to My heart, which shall feed
you with knowledge and understanding.
Jeremiah 16: 17
For My eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from My face,
neither is their iniquity hid from My eyes.
Jeremiah 16:18-21
128
And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they
have defiled My land, they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of
their detestable and abominable things.
With the Ezekiel 4:4-5 prophecy 390 days x 2 would bring this first
punishment ending about 55AD in the midst of the early church called “The
Way”
19. O YHVH, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of

shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein
there is no profit.
20. Shall a man make elohim unto himself, and they are not elohim?
21. Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause
them to know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My
name is YHVH.
Ezekiel 39:7
So will I make My Holy Name known in the midst of My people Yisrael; and
I will not let them pollute My Holy Name any more: and the heathen shall
know that I am YHVH, the Holy One in Yisrael.
Ezekiel 36:32
Not for your sakes do I this, says YHVH Elohim, be it known unto you: be
ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Yisrael.
Ezekiel 36:22
Therefore say unto the house of Yisrael, Thus says YHVH Elohim; I do not
this for your sakes, O house of Yisrael, but for My Holy Name's sake, which
you have profaned among the heathen, wherever you went.
Jeremiah 24:6-7
For I will set My eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them again to this
land: and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant
them, and not pluck them up.
7. And I will give them a heart to know Me, that I am YHVH: and they
shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim: for they shall return unto
Me with their whole heart.
129
In summation of many of the previous verses, I would have to say, the
New (Renewed) Covenant is not FULLY implemented until the re-gathering,
when we are in the land with Yahshua as our King; King of Kings, and we are
doing YHVH’s laws (Torah).
Isaiah 44:21 "Remember these things, O Jacob, for you are my servant,
O Yisrael. I have made you, you are my servant; O Yisrael, I will not forget
you.
Leviticus 26:40-42
If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with
their trespass which they trespassed against Me, and that also they have
walked contrary unto Me;
41. And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them
into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be
humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
42. Then will I remember My covenant with Jacob, and also My covenant
with Isaac, and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will
remember the land.
Leviticus 26:44-45
And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast
them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break My
covenant with them: for I am YHVH their Elohim.
45. But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors,
whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that
I might be their Elohim: I am YHVH.
Ezekiel 12:25
For I am YHVH: I will speak, and the Word that I shall speak shall come
to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O rebellious house,
I will say the Word, and will perform it, says YHVH Elohim.
He has told us the end from the beginning! This has been His plan from the
start to fulfill His promise to Avraham, Yitshaq and Ya’aqov. We will return
to the land given to our fathers as one united kingdom with the seed of
David as our King; if we be willing to walk in His covenant.
130
Micah 7:19-20
He will turn again, He will have compassion upon us; He will subdue our
iniquities; and You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20. You will perform the truth to Ya’aqov, and the mercy to Avraham,
which You have sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.
Romans 11:17-18
If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive
shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the
nourishing sap from the olive root,
18. do not boast over those branches. If you do, consider this: You do not
support the root, but the root supports you.
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Elohim, and keep his
14. For Elohim shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing,
whether it be good or whether it be evil.
131
HOSEA
New International
Hosea 12:10 I spoke to the prophets, gave them many visions and told
parables through them."
Hosea 12:10
I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used
similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.
Hosea was a prophet sent to Yisrael (the NTT). It covers not only the
impending judgment that was about to come but also reveals YHVH’s long
term plan for them.
Many of the verses I quote here were the reasons the NTT would be sent
in to captivity and I am trying to show how many of these same things are
still being done today.
YHVH often had His prophets act out in public (similitudes or parables)
what He was about to do. Hosea was a prime example of this, and the book
of Hosea opens like this; however the first chapter has future prophecies that
are further elaborated on in following chapters.
Hosea 1:3-4
So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and
bare him a son.
132
4. And YHVH said unto him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet in a little while,
I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to
cease the kingdom of the house of Yisrael.
Hosea 1:6-7
And she conceived again, and bore a daughter. And Elohim said unto him,
Call her name Loruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house
of Yisrael; but I will utterly take them away.
7. But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah, and will save them by
YHVH their Elohim, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by
battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.
Hosea 1:8-9
Now when she had weaned Loruhamah, she conceived, and bore a son.
9. Then said Elohim, Call his name Loammi: for you are not my people,
and I will not be your Elohim.
Hosea 8:1-3
Set the trumpet to your mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house
of YHVH, because they have transgressed My covenant, and trespassed
against My Torah.
2. Yisrael shall cry unto Me, my Elohim, we ‘know’ You.
3. Yisrael has cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him.
The word ‘know’ in Hebrew is Strong’s # 3045 transliterated: yada`

Phonetic: yaw-dah'
Text: a primitive root; to know (properly, to ascertain by seeing); used in a

great variety of senses, figuratively, literally, euphemistically and
inferentially (including observation, care, recognition; and causatively,
instruction and others.
This word also denotes a very intimate knowing as it is the same word
used in Gen. 4:1 “Adam knew Eve, his wife; and she conceived. How
intimate are you with YHVH?
Many say they have a personal relationship with ‘g-d’, or with Jesus, but I
ask them: How personal or intimate can you be if you don’t know their real
name? Both the Father and the Sons names in most English Bibles are not a
133
translation or even a transliteration and they have no meaning! How do you
think He feels, even if it is out of ignorance, when you call Him by the name
of a false deity; which He has commanded us not to let these names be
heard from our mouth! Or you refuse to call Him by the Name He gave
us as a memorial FOREVER! This is profaning His Name.
Exodus 3:15
....this is My Name forever, and this is My memorial unto all
generations.)
And further, through the lies we have inherited from our fathers you say
His Torah is bondage, that it is not valid to the new covenant thus
circumventing His will for us! See the comments below on Hosea 8:12.
Hosea 8:7
For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it has no
stalk; the bud shall yield no meal: if so be if it yield, the strangers shall
swallow it up.
Hosea 8:12
I have written to him the great things of My Torah, but they were
counted as a strange thing.
How many times have you heard statements like: ‘That’s the old
covenant; it’s for the Jews, it is not for us today; we’re under the new
covenant’ or ‘That’s legalism or bondage’; then I suggest you read Psalm
119 then John 1:1 to understand that Yahshua IS THE WORD of YHVH
and neither of them CHANGE! Then read the chapter “I have Told You the
End from the Beginning. Find how the new covenant was foretold by the
prophets; for YHVH does nothing without telling us the end from the
beginning:
(Amos 3:7 Surely the Sovereign YHVH does nothing without revealing
His plan to His servants the prophets. )
Hosea 8:13-14
13. They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of My offerings, and eat it; but
YHVH accepts them not; now will He remember their iniquity, and visit
their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
134
While studying the Hebrew on this verse I was shown that it could,
without stretching the context, also be translated: “They slaughter My gifts,
they kill the gospel and feed on it; YHVH will not accept them. Now He
will remember their perversity and visit their habitual sinfulness
(because) they have returned to Mitsrayim” (the land of sun worship).
14. For Yisrael has forgotten his maker, and builds temples
Go on line and google ‘magnificent church buildings’. Browse around a

bit and see some of the most awesome buildings mankind has ever built.
They say they are for Him but what comes to my mind is:
(Isaiah 29:13 YHVH says: "These people come near to Me with their mouth
and honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me. Their
worship of Me is made up only of rules taught by men.
Jeremiah 16:19 O YHVH, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge

in the day of affliction, unto You shall the nations come from the ends of the
earth, and shall say, Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, even
vanity and things wherein there is no profit.)
Hosea 9:1
Rejoice not, O Yisrael, for joy, as other people: for you have gone a
whoring from your Elohim, you have loved a reward upon every threshing
floor.
Hosea 9:3
They shall not dwell in YHVH's land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and
they shall eat unclean things in Assyria.
Hosea 11:5
Will he not return to the land of Egypt, and will not the Assyrian be his
king, because they refused to repent.
Hosea 9:4-5
They shall not offer wine offerings to YHVH, neither shall they be pleasing
unto Him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all
135
that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come
into the house of YHVH.
5. What will you do in the day of meeting, and in the day of the feast of
YHVH?
What are acceptable sacrifices to YHVH? The chapter on this subject will
challenge the lies you have probably been taught!
Hosea 9:7
The days of punishment are coming, the days of reckoning are at hand.
Let Yisrael know this. Because your sins are so many and your hostility so
great, their prophet is considered a fool, and mad is the man of spirit.
Hosea 9:9
They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: therefore
He will remember their iniquity, He will visit their sins.
Hosea 9:15
All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness
of their doings I will drive them out of My house, I will love them no
more: all their leaders are rebellious.
Hosea 9:17
My Elohim will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto Him:
and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
Hosea 10:1
Yisrael is an empty vine, he brings forth fruit unto himself: according to
the multitude of his fruit he has increased the altars; according to the
goodness of his land they have made goodly images.
(John 15:1-2
"I am the true vine, and My Father is the vine tender.
2 He cuts off every branch in Me that bears no fruit, while every branch that
does bear fruit He prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.)
“Yisrael is an empty vine, he brings forth fruit unto himself” is

understood by me as we will be known by our fruit. Christianity is well
136
known through out the world for its generosity helping feed the hungry,
providing clothing, shelter and speaking out for basic human rights, which is
right and the commanded thing to do. However when one considers
Matthew 6:2-4:
Matthew 6: 2 "So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with
trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be
honored by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full.
3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your
right hand is doing,
4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is
done in secret, will reward you.
I see most of Christianity brining that fruit “unto himself” by the actions
of the likes of some charitable organizations and TV evangelist, who are like
wolves in sheep’s clothing. “ You must sow to reap, the more you sow the
bigger your reward!” They brag about these required ‘works’ to get people
to send more money thus they fleece the sheep while trampling the good
pasture and mudding the waters with the lies they have inherited from their
fathers.
Yahshua scolded the Pharisees in Matthew 23:23 about neglecting the
more important matters of Torah.
(Matthew 23:23 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you
hypocrites! You tithe spices: mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected
the more important matters of the Torah--justice, mercy and faithfulness.
You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.)
Hosea 5:4
Their deeds will not allow them to return unto their Elohim: for the spirit of
fornication is in the midst of them, and they have not known YHVH.
Please read again the comments on Hosea 8:1-3 on a previous page, do

you really ‘know’ YHVH?
Hosea 11:12
Ephraim compasses Me about with lies, and the house of Yisrael with
deceit: but Judah yet rules with Elohim, and is faithful with the saints.
137
After hundreds of years of being in captivity and mixing with gentiles,
Judah considered the “lost’ NTT to be ‘gentiles’ for they no longer knew
YHVH. So in this context Jeremiah 16:19 can be seen that it applies to the
nations that have been established by the NTT. For they truly believe the lie
that Torah is bondage, that it has passed away and been replaced by a new
covenant that only requires one to ‘believe’ and love one another!
(Jeremiah 16:19 O YHVH, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge

in the day of affliction, unto You shall the gentiles (in Hebrew goyim or the
nations that do not know YHVH) come from the ends of the earth, and shall
say, Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, even vanity and things
wherein there is no profit.)
Hosea 13:1-2
When Ephraim spoke trembling, he exalted himself in Yisrael; but when he
offended in Baal, he died.
2. And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of
their silver, and idols according to their own understanding, all of it the
work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the
calves.
Do you know who Ba’al is? Or that he is still around today in

Christianity? This will be covered in the chapter on ‘gods’ or false elohim.
Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves:
Like kissing statues of Mary, the hand of the Pope or crucifixes?
King James
Hosea 13:4 Yet I am YHVH your Elohim from the land of Egypt, and
you shall know no Elohim but Me: for there is no savior beside Me.
Hosea 13:4 "But I am YHVH your Elohim, [who brought you] out of Egypt.
You shall acknowledge no Elohim but Me, no Savior except Me.
Hosea 13:4 Yet I am YHVH thy Elohim from the land of Egypt; and you
shall know no Elohim but Me, and besides Me there is no savior.
138
Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have
rejected knowledge, I will also reject YOU, that you shall be no priest to
me: seeing you have forgotten the Torah of your Elohim, I will also
forget your children.
What does Scripture say true knowledge is? (Not formal education).
(Proverbs 1:7
The reverence of YHVH is the beginning of knowledge.
Psalm 19:9, 11
The reverence of YHVH is pure, enduring forever. The ordinances of
YHVH are sure and altogether righteous.
11 By them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great
reward.)
“no priest to me:”
Without proper knowledge of YHVH, we cannot be a priest to Him; to be

a light unto the world, to say:
“this will show your wisdom and understanding knowledge of the Most
High to the nations, who will hear about all these decrees and say, "Surely
this great nation is a wise and understanding people." What other nation is
so great as to have their elohim near them the way YHVH our Elohim is
near us whenever we pray to him? And what other nation is so great as to
have such righteous decrees and Torah as this.” (Paraphrase of
Deuteronomy 4:6-7)
We were called to be kingdom of priest, but now YHVH is rejecting the

NTT because of their refusal to ‘know’ Him. Are you going to continue as
our ancestors did or seek knowledge of the most High?
(Exodus 19:5-6
Now if you obey Me fully and keep My covenant, then out of all nations
you will be My treasured possession. For the whole earth is Mine,
139
6. you will be for Me a kingdom of priests and a Holy nation.' These are
the words you are to speak to the Yisraelites.)
Hosea 13:9
O Yisrael, you have destroyed yourself; but in Me is your help.
Hosea 12:6
Therefore turn you to your Elohim: keep mercy and judgment and wait on
your Elohim continually.
Christianity keeps the former (mercy) but refuses to righteously judge

their brethren as they are commanded! (Re: John 7:24).
Hosea 10:12
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow
ground: for it is time to seek YHVH, till He come and rain righteousness
upon you.
It is time to turn, repent and seek YHVH while that door is open. For in
short time it will close and not be able to be opened.
Future promises
Hosea 1:10-11
Yet the number of the children of Yisrael shall be as the sand of the sea,
which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in
the place where it was said unto them, You are not My people, there it
shall be said unto them, You are the sons of the living Elohim.
11. Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Yisrael be
gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall
ascend the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.
Chapter one of Hosea is a double prophecy; first, of the impending end of

the house of Jehu, of the NTT kingdom’s captivity and a latter days
prophecy. In verses ten and eleven we get the latter days portion of the
prophecy: that in the same place where they were disinherited, they will be,
in the future, restored to the status of ‘sons’ of Elohim. In verse eleven we
140
see Judah and Yisrael being reunited and agreeing on one leader, (I see that
as Yahshua) and ascending into the land.
Some versions say they will “come up out of the land” but these are added
words, they are not in the Hebrew text. All of the other prophet’s recurring
message about the re-gathering is in the latter days we will return, not leave,
to eretz Yisrael.
Hosea 8:10-11
Although they have sold themselves among the nations, I will now gather
them together. They will begin to become few under the oppression of a
mighty king.
11. Because Ephraim have made many altars to sin, these have become
altars for sinning.
‘begin to become few under the oppression of a mighty king.’
As I was reviewing this the latter half of verse 10 ‘jumped out at me’, it is
one of those verses I’ve read many times but suddenly it hit me in a new
light. In light of our country being ‘Islamized’ there is the distinct possibility
of many losing their heads for their belief in Yahshua and becoming few as
people renounce Him to save their head!
(Revelation 20:4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been
given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been
beheaded because of their testimony for Yahshua and because of the word of
Elohim. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received
his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned
with Messiah a thousand years.)
When are these things to happen?

Hosea 6:2
After two days He will revive us: in the third day He will raise us up, and
we shall live in His sight.
“After two days”
2 Peter 3:8
141
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with
YHVH as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Psalms 90:4
For a thousand years in Your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and
as a watch in the night.
It is ironic that what Peter tells us we should not be ignorant of, that most
people are ignorant of it!
Two days = two thousand years. We are two thousand years from the time
of Yahshua’s ministry on earth! Now is the time of restoration of all
things to prepare for His return!
‘He will revive us’
We are dead to YHVH in our sins. We need to be revived. Yahshua

would forgive sins and would say “Go and sin no more” (John 5:14 and
8:11).
We believe Yahshua died for the forgiveness of our sins but, due to the
lies we’ve inherited from our fathers, because of misunderstanding Paul’s
writings, we continue to sin; so we are again dead in our sin!
It is accepted that when the Messiah comes He will tell us the right
interpretation of all Scripture. I submit to you that was one of His purposes
at His first coming, was because at that time, there were many rulings of the
rabbis’ that were completely opposite of one another and clarification was
needed. Who do you believe? Which ones are right? So the rabbi’s again
corrupted Scripture with their rule of ‘go after the majority’. Further these
rulings were made into ‘law’, which brought the Word of YHVH to no
effect! Read Yahshua’s attack on the Pharisees in Matthew 15:1-9 and Mark
7:1-13.
These ‘laws’ are the ones that Paul is telling us we are no longer under
because they cannot save us. It is our belief in Yahshua, that He is the Son of
YHVH, the Word (Torah) made incarnate, He is the Way, the Light and the
Truth, and doing as He commands that saves us. If any try to enter the
sheepfold by any other means he is a robber.
142
Hosea 3:4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king,
and without prince, and without sacrifice, and without pillar, and without
ephod or teraphim:
5. Afterward shall the children of Yisrael return, and seek YHVH their
Elohim, and David their king; and shall reverence YHVH and His goodness
in the latter days.
Verse four says Yisrael will abide many days without a king and verse five
states after that time of exile, in the latter days that we, the children of
Yisrael, will seek our King, the descendant of David. It is time to turn away
from the Greek Jesus and seek the Hebrew Yahshua!
Hosea 14:4-7
I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for My anger is
turned away from him.
5. I will be as the dew unto Yisrael: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth
his roots as Lebanon. (the white one, that is Yerushlayim)
6. His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and
his smell as Lebanon.
7. They that dwell under His shadow shall return; they shall revive as the
grain, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of
Lebanon.
How is our backsliding healed? By forgiveness and teaching us the Truth

so that we sin no more!
Hosea 10:13
You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped iniquity; you have eaten the
fruit of lies: because you did trust in ‘your way’, in the multitude of your
mighty men.
(Joel 2:11 YHVH thunders at the head of His army; His forces are beyond
number, and mighty are those who obey His command. The day of
YHVH is great; it is dreadful. Who can endure it?)
It is a shame that our mighty men of the last two thousand years have
been living a lie. Guess whose army they were serving?
143
the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto You from the ends of the
earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and
things wherein there is no profit.)
Hosea 14:9
Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall
know them? for the ways of YHVH are right, and the just shall walk in
Romans 8:28
144
The Watchman’s Call
I have a watchman’s call upon my life, so I am obligated to share the
following with you. This is very important so please read it to the end.
Ezekiel 3:17 "Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of
Yisrael; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from Me.
18 When I say to a wicked man, `You will surely die,' and you do not
warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to
save his life, that wicked man will die for his sin, and I will hold you
accountable for his blood.
19 But if you do warn the wicked man and he does not turn from his
wickedness or from his evil ways, he will die for his sin; but you will have
saved yourself.
20 "Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and does
evil, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. Since you did not
warn him, he will die for his sin. The righteous things he did will not be
remembered, and I will hold you accountable for his blood.
21 Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin
not, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; you
have delivered your soul.
145
Torah teaches us there are basically two types of sin, foolish mistaken
ones and presumptuous ones. Read Number 15:22-31.
Psalms 19:13
Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have
dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the
great transgression.
-- King James
Numbers 15:22. And if you have erred, and not observed all these
commandments, which YHVH has spoken unto Moses,
Numbers 15:22. Now if you unintentionally fail to keep any of these
commands YHVH gave Moses--
Numbers 15:22. And when you shall err, and not observe all these
commandments, which YHVH has spoken unto Moses,
Numbers 15:23 any of YHVH's commands to you through him, from the
day YHVH gave them and continuing through the generations to come--
24 Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the
knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one
young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet savor unto YHVH, with his
meat offering, and his drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid
of the goats for a sin offering.
25 The priest is to make atonement for the whole Yisraelite community, and
they will be forgiven, for it was not intentional and they have brought to
YHVH for their wrong an offering made by fire and a sin offering.
26 The whole Yisraelite community and the aliens living among them will
be forgiven, because all the people were involved in the unintentional
wrong.
LIT Numbers 15:26

because| as to all the people, {it was} in ignorance.
146
27 And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat
of the first year for a sin offering.
28 And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sins ignorantly,
when he sins by ignorance before YHVH, to make an atonement for him;
and it shall be forgiven him.
29 One and the same law applies to everyone who sins unintentionally,
whether he is a native-born Yisraelite or a sojourner.
30 But the soul that does ought presumptuously, whether he be born in the
land, or a stranger, the same reproaches YHVH; and that soul shall be cut
off from among his people.
So we see there was forgiveness for mistaken or foolish sin in the Torah.
Presumptuous sin is another matter. They were to be cut off from Yisrael!
The verse in the Messianic Scriptures that comes to my mind is Hebrews
10:26-29:
Hebrews 10:26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received

the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left,
27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will
consume the enemies of Elohim.
28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the
testimony of two or three witnesses.
29 How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished
who has trampled the Son of Elohim under foot, who has treated as an
unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and who has
insulted the Spirit of grace?
Below are the Hebrew words used for unintentional or ignorant sin, error
and presumptuous sin.
Verse 22, 24 & 25
Strong's Ref. # 7686 (err, erred, unintentionally, and ignorance )
Romanized shagah, Pronounced shaw-gaw'
a primitive root; to stray (causatively, mislead), usually (figuratively) to

mistake, especially (morally) to transgress; by extension (through the idea
of intoxication) to reel, (figuratively) be enraptured:
147
KJV--(cause to) go astray, deceive, err, be ravished, sin through
ignorance, (let, make to) wander.
Verse 24, 25, 26, 27 & 2X in 28 (ignorance and unintentional)
Romanized shgagah, Pronounced sheg-aw-gaw'
from HSN7683; a mistake or inadvertent transgression:
KJV--error, ignorance, at unawares; unwittingly.
Verse 30 (presumputously)
Romanized gaboahh, Pronounced gaw-bo'-ah
or (fully) gabowahh {gaw-bo'-ah}; from HSN1361; elevated (or elated),

powerful, arrogant:
KJV--haughty, height, high(-er), lofty, proud, X exceeding proudly.
There are some who teach that all our sins past and future are forgiven by
Yahshua’s blood. Maybe, if we repent before we die. Be very careful when
you consider doctrines; that you can find two or three witnesses in the Tanak
to bear it out for there are many false doctrines. YHVH has told us He will
do nothing new except He show His prophets first!
Amos 3:7 Surely the Master YHVH does nothing without revealing His
plan to His servants the prophets.
Consider Ezekiel 18 carefully.
Ezekiel 18
148
1. The Word of YHVH came to me:
2. "What do you people mean by quoting this proverb about the land of
Yisrael: "`The fathers eat sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on
edge'?
3. "As surely as I live, declares the Master YHVH, you will no longer
quote this proverb in Yisrael.
4. For every living soul belongs to Me, the father as well as the son--both
alike belong to Me. The soul who sins is the one who will die.
5. But if a man be just, and does that which is lawful and right,
6. and has not eaten upon the mountains, or looks to the idols of the house
of Yisrael. He does not defile his neighbor's wife or lie with a woman during
her period.
7. He does not oppress anyone, but returns what he took in pledge for a
loan. He does not commit robbery but gives his food to the hungry and
provides clothing for the naked.
8. He does not lend at usury or take excessive interest. He withholds his
hand from doing wrong and judges fairly between man and man.
9. He follows My decrees and faithfully keeps My laws. That man is
righteous; he will surely live, declares Master YHVH.
10. And if he fathers a violent son, who sheds blood or does any of these
other things
11. (though the father has done none of them): but even has eaten upon the
mountains. He defiles his neighbor's wife.
12. He oppresses the poor and needy. He commits robbery. He does not
return what he took in pledge. He looks to the idols. He does detestable
things.
13. He lends at usury and takes excessive interest. Will such a man live?
He will not! Because he has done all these detestable things, he will surely
be put to death and his blood will be on his own head.
14. Now listen if this son has a son who sees all the sins his father commits,
and though he sees them, he does not do such things:
15. He has not eaten upon the mountains or looks to the idols of the house
of Ysrael. He does not defile his neighbor's wife.
16. He does not oppress anyone or require a pledge for a loan. He does not
commit robbery but gives his food to the hungry and provides clothing for
the naked.
17. That has withdrawn his hand from the poor, that has not received
interest nor increase, has executed My ordinances, has walked in My
statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live.
149
18. But his father will die for his own sin, because he practiced extortion,
robbed his brother and did what was wrong among his people.
19. "Yet you ask, `Why does the son not share the guilt of his father?' Since
the son has done what is just and right and has been careful to keep all My
decrees, he will surely live.
20. The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the
guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The
righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to him, and the
wickedness of the wicked will be charged against him.
21. "But if a wicked man turns away from all the sins he has committed and
keeps all My decrees and does what is just and right, he will surely live; he
will not die.
22. None of the offenses he has committed will be remembered against
him. Because of the righteous things he has done, he will live.
23. Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares Master
YHVH, and not rather that he should return from his way, and live?
24. "But if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits sin
and does the same detestable things the wicked man does, will he live? None
of the righteous things he has done will be remembered. Because of the
unfaithfulness he is guilty of and because of the sins he has committed, he
will die.
25. "Yet you say, `The way of YHVH is not just.' Hear, O house of Yisrael:
Is My way unjust? Is it not your ways that are unjust?
26. If a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits sin,
he will die for it; because of the sin he has committed he will die.
27. But if a wicked man turns away from the wickedness he has committed
and does what is just and right, he will save his life.
28. Because he considers all the offenses he has committed and turns away
from them, he will surely live; he will not die.
29. Yet the house of Yisrael says, `The way of YHVH is not just.' Are My
ways unjust, O house of Yisrael? Is it not your ways that are unjust?
30. "Therefore, O house of Yisrael, I will judge you, each one according to
his ways, declares Master YHVH. Repent! Turn away from all your
offenses; then sin will not be your downfall.
31. Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new
heart and a new spirit. Why will you die, O house of Yisrael?
32. For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Master
YHVH. Repent and live!
Not my words but His. The ball is in your court, whatcha gonna do?

I HAVE TOLD YOU THE END FROM THE
BEGINNING (or the new covenant revealed)
What is the difference between the ‘old’ covenant and the ‘new’

under the law” of the Old Testament. Does Scripture really tell us that?

The New Covenant Revealed

The ‘New Covenant’ was revealed to the Prophets for us His saints. It is
‘hidden’ in their writings, can you find it? May you have joy in this journey.
Men have added to what was revealed long ago, beware of what they teach!
Make sure you back doctrine of a ‘new covenant’ with two or three
witnesses from the TaNaK.

32. Not according to the covenant I made with their forefathers when I took
them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke My
covenant, though I was a husband to them, " declares YHWH.
33."This is the covenant I will make with the house of Yisrael after that
time," declares YHWH. "I will put My Torah in their minds and write it
on their hearts. I will be their Elohim, and they will be My people.
34. No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying,
`Know YHWH,' because they will all know Me, from the least of them to
the greatest," declares YHWH. "For I will forgive their wickedness and will
remember their sins no more." WITNESS # 3
YHVH has not made a covenant with anyone other than Yisrael, except
the one to the whole earth never to flood it again. The early church were
Jewish, we are joined to them not the opposite way. Read Romans chapter
eleven especially verses 16-27. The ‘Christians’, gentiles who joined
Yisrael, hi-jacked “The Way” and changed it to suit them. Most have no idea
of the overall plan of the scattering to mix with the rest of the world and re-
gathering to fulfill the promises made to Avraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, saying,
In you shall all the nations be blessed.

to grow up unto David; and He shall execute justice and righteousness in

justice and righteousness in the land; that is His role in the second coming to
rule with an iron rod! (Re: Revelation 2:27)

shall be My people, and I will be your Elohim. WITNESS # 6
According to YHVH’s Word the New Covenant is having His Torah in

your mind and written upon your heart! Even if you where first chosen by
Him, you have to be willing and choose to serve Him to let Him write it on
your heart and put it in your mind! That’s a little hard when so many have
accepted the lies handed down generation after generation by our fore
fathers.
There is the possibility that the covenant talked about above is for the end
days. I say this because it is tied with the re-gathering and return to the land
promised to Avraham, Isaac, Ya’acov and their descendants.
Jeremiah 32:37 Behold, I will gather them out of all the countries, where I
have driven them in My anger, and in My wrath, and in great indignation;
and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell
safely:
Zephaniah 3:9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they
may all call upon the Name of YHWH, to serve Him with one consent.
Many of Judah (the Jews) say that this re-gathering already took place
when they came out of Babylonian captivity. This is not so because of the
following verses:
Ezekiel 34:22-24 I will save My flock, and they will no longer be

plundered. I will judge between one sheep and another.
23 I will place over them one shepherd, My servant David, and He will
tend them; He will tend them and be their shepherd.
24 I YHWH will be their Elohim, and My servant David will be prince
among them. I YHWH have spoken. WITNESS # 1
Ezekiel 37:22 I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of
Yisrael. There will be one king over all of them and they will never again
be two nations or be divided into two kingdoms. WITNESS # 2
155
Ezekiel 37:24-25 And My servant David shall be king over them; and they
all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in My ordinances, and
observe My statutes, and do them.
25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob My
servant, where your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, they, and
their children, and their children's children, for ever: and David My servant
shall be their prince for ever. WITNESS # 3
Ezekiel 39:7 So will I make My Holy Name known in the midst of My

people Yisrael; and I will not let them pollute My Holy Name any more: and
the heathen shall know that I am YHWH, the Holy One in Yisrael.
Isaiah 52:6 Therefore My people will know My name; therefore in that

day they will know that it is I who foretold it. Yes, it is I."
Romans 8:28
156
Yahshua’s Main Mission/Purpose
The Moshiach’s role, foretold throughout Scripture, is to restore the

Kingdom of Yisrael. First we had to be cleaned up, to be able to face
YHVH, and ‘healed’ from the results of our sin. True belief, in YHVH’s
Moshiach, accompanied by action, who was foretold of from the beginning,
is ‘the way’ (the path we must walk) to return to the Kingdom (Tzion).
Matthew 7:13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and
broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a
few find it.
And that narrow gate IS Yahshua who came to cleanse us of our sins.
Our sin is often referred to as ‘sicknesses’. These were put upon us by our
own actions i.e. the consequences of our own choices; which were foretold
in Torah. Forgiveness of our sins must come first, then and only then can we
begin the journey to return to Tzion.
157
Deuteronomy 32:39 "See now that I myself am He! There is no Elohim
besides me. I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will
heal, and no one can deliver out of My hand.

outcasts of Israel.
3 He heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds.
Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion! Shout, Daughter of

Jerusalem! See, your King comes to you, righteous and having salvation,
gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
John’s Question.
Matthew 11:2 Now when John heard in the prison the works of the
Moshiach, he sent by his disciples,
3 to ask Him, "Are you the One who was to come, or should we expect
someone else?"
4 Yahshua replied, "Go back and report to John what you hear and see:
5 The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are
cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to
the poor.
Why would Yahshua say these things to answer their question? If

someone had a good understanding of the Old Testament they would know
right away what Yahshua was talking about. All these things describe exiled
Yisrael! Let's explore some scriptures.
Isaiah 42:23 Who among you will give ear to this? Who will hearken and
hear for the time to come?
Scripture describes Yisrael as blind, deaf and lame.
Isaiah 42:18 Hear, you deaf; and look, you blind, that you may see.
19 Who is blind, but My servant? Or deaf, as My messenger that I sent?
Who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as YHVH's servant?
158
20 You have seen many things, but have paid no attention; your ears are
open, but you hear nothing."
Jeremiah 31:7 For thus says YHVH; Sing with gladness for Jacob, and
shout among the chief of the nations: publish you, praise you, and say, O
YHVH, save Your people, the remnant of Israel.
8 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from
the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman
with child and her that travails with child together: a great company shall
return here.
Luke 8:10 He said, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of

Elohim has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that,
"`though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not
understand.'
I cover else where in this book that our blindness is, in part (not total), for
a season and for a reason.
They are ‘cut off’ or Dead.
Ezekiel 37:1 The hand of YHVH was upon me, and carried me out in the
spirit of YHVH, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full
of bones,
2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very
many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
3 And He said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered,
O Master YHVH, You know.
4 Then He said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, `Dry
bones, hear the Word of YHVH!
5 Thus says Master YHVH unto these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to
enter into you, and you shall live.
11 Then He said to me: "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of
Israel. They say, Òur bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut
off.'

now, that you have all gone up on the roofs,
2 O town full of commotion, O city of tumult and revelry? Your slain were
not killed by the sword, nor did they die in battle.
3 All your leaders have fled together; they have been captured without
using the bow. All you who were caught were taken prisoner together,
having fled while the enemy was still far away.
Proverbs 21:16 The man that wanders out of the Way of understanding
shall rest in the assembly of the dead.
Isaiah 59:10 Like the blind we grope along the wall, feeling our way like
men without eyes. At midday we stumble as if it were twilight; among the
strong, we are like the dead.
John 3:3 In reply Yahshua declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the
kingdom of Elohim unless he is born again. " (Born again SPIRITUALY)

besides Me. I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will
Yisrael was ‘sold’ (but will be redeemed by our kinsman

redeemer)
Isaiah 50:1 Thus says YHVH, Where is the bill of your mother's
divorcement, whom I have put away? Or which of My creditors is it to
whom I have sold you? behold, for your iniquities have you sold
yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
Isaiah 52:3 For this is what YHVH says: "You were sold for nothing, and
without money you will be redeemed."
160
1 Peter 1:18 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as
silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed
down to you from your forefathers,

Luke 1:33 And He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of His
Kingdom there shall be no end.
Leprosy Results from Sin and Uncleanness is Sin
Numbers 12:1 And Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the
Cushite woman whom he had married; for he had married a Cushite woman.
2 And they said, Has YHVH indeed spoken only by Moses? Has he not
spoken also by us? And YHVH heard it.
4 And YHVH spoke suddenly unto Moses, and unto Aaron, and unto
Miriam, Come out you three unto the tabernacle of the congregation. And
the three came out.
5 And YHVH came down in the pillar of the cloud, and stood in the door of
the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam: and they both came forth.
6 He said, "Listen to My words: "When a prophet of YHVH is among you, I
reveal Myself to him in visions, I speak to him in dreams.
7 My servant Moses is not so; he is faithful in all My house:
8 With him I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form
of YHVH. Why then were you not afraid to speak against My servant
Moses?"
10 And the cloud removed from over the Tent; and, behold, Miriam was
leprous, as white as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, she
was leprous.
11 And Aaron said unto Moses, Oh, my master, I pray you, lay not, sin
upon us, for that we have done foolishly, and for that we have sinned.
12 Let her not, I pray, be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed
when he comes out of his mother's womb.
‘Unclean’ (not fit to appear before YHVH)

Ezekiel 36:17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land,
they defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was before
Me as the uncleanness of a removed woman.
leads to death.
Is your walk on the narrow road in The Way that Yahshua describes and
the apostles walked?
These ‘sicknesses’ have resulted in Yisrael being prisoners to our sins.
This is our ‘captivity’ that we need to be set free from!
Luke 9:2 And He sent them forth to preach the kingdom of Elohim, and to
heal the sick.

outcasts of Israel.

11 As for you also, because of the blood of My covenant I have set free
your prisoners from the pit wherein there is no water. (Water of the Word)
13 For I have bent Judah for Me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and
I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece, and will make
you as the sword of a mighty man.
Joel 2:11 YHVH thunders at the head of His army; His forces are beyond
number, and mighty are those who obey His command. The day of YHVH
is great; it is dreadful. Who can endure it?
Also as poor and afflicted.
Isaiah 49:13 Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into
singing, O mountains: for YHVH has comforted His people, and will have
mercy upon his afflicted.
162
Zephaniah 3:12 I will also leave in the midst of you an afflicted and poor
people, and they shall trust in the Name of YHVH.
20 At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you:
for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when
I turn back your captivity before your eyes, says YHVH.
Psalms 86:1
Bow down Your ear, O YHVH, hear me: for I am poor and needy.
Matthew 3:2. Repent, everyone; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
For there can be no forgiveness of sins without true repentance!
The Dispersion was Prophesized from the Beginning.
Deuteronomy 4:27 And YHVH shall scatter you among the nations, and
you shall be left few in number among the heathen, wherever YHVH shall
lead you.
Leviticus 26:33 I will scatter you among the nations and will draw out
My sword and pursue you. Your land will be laid waste, and your cities will
lie in ruins.
There are many more prophecies about the dispersion but as we know
there are twice as many prophecies that YHVH will re-gather us for the
purpose of restoring His Kingdom, Yisrael.
Tzion, the Kingdom of YHVH

outcasts of Israel.
Psalms 102:16 When YHVH shall build up Zion, He shall appear in His
glory.
163
Tzion will be built up, then He will return in His glory. The following
exchange between Yahshua and the disciples prior to him being taken up.
Acts 1:6 So when they met together, they asked Him, "Master, are you at
this time going to restore the kingdom to Yisrael?"
7 He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father
has set by His own authority.
1 Peter 2:5 You also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, to be
a Holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to Elohim
through Yahshua haMoshiach.
6 Because it is contained in scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner
stone, elect, precious: And he that believes on Him shall not be put to
shame.
James, Peter and even the Pharisees Where Aware of the NTT
James 1:1 James, a servant of Elohim and of the Master Yahshua

haMoshiach, to the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: Greetings.
1 Peter 1:1 Peter, an apostle of Yahshua haMoshiach, to the elect who are
sojourners of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and
Bithynia,
2 according to the foreknowledge of Elohim the Father, in sanctification
of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Yahshua
haMoshiach: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
John 7:35 Then said the Jews among themselves, Where will he go, that we
shall not find him? Will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and
teach the Gentiles?
Gentiles - Strong's Ref. # 1672
Romanized - Hellen Pronounced hel'-lane
from GSN1671; a Hellen (Grecian) or inhabitant of Hellas; by extension a

Greek-speaking person, especially a non-Jew:
The Pharisees considered the ‘lost tribes’ to be Gentiles because they no

longer knew YHVH and were uncircumcised. In their eyes only the Jews
164
who were following their rulings, customs and traditions where in covenant
with YHVH. Even Gentile converts were not considered fully ‘Jewish’.
It is still that way to this day. A Messianic Jewish Congregation my
family and I attended in the nineteen nineties would let ‘Gentiles’, i.e. non-
Jews join and expected them to fully tithe but were not allowed to vote or
have a say in congregational policy.
IN the Place it was said to them…It shall be said to them…
Hosea 1:9 Then said Elohim, Call his name Loammi: for you are not My
people, and I will not be your Elohim.
10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea,
which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass that, in
the place where it was said unto them, You are not My people, it shall be
said unto them, You are the sons of the living Elohim.
John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them He gave power to become
the sons of Elohim, even to them that believe on His Name:
Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of Elohim, these are sons
of Elohim.
Hosea 2:23 And I will sow her unto Me in the earth; and I will have mercy
upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them that were not
My people, You are My people; and they shall say, You are my Elohim.
Yahshua’s Own Words Confirm Whom He was Sent to.
-- King James
Matthew 15:24 But He (Yahshua) answered and said, I am not sent but
unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Matthew 15:24 But He answered and said, I was not sent but unto the lost
sheep of the house of Israel.
Matthew 15:24 He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."
165
Matthew 9:36 But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with
compassion for them, because they were distressed and scattered, as sheep
not having a shepherd.
Matthew 10:5 These twelve Yahshua sent forth, and commanded them,
saying, Go not into the way of the Nations, and into any city of the
Samaritans enter you not:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Why did Yahshua tell the disciples not to go to the Nations or

Samaritans? I think because, as the following passage shows, that was His
task. To the Yisraelites first, then the Nations.
John 4:3 He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.

4 Now He had to go through Samaria.
5 So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground
Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
7 When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Yahshua said to her, "Will
you give Me a drink?"
9 The Samaritan woman said to Him, "You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan
woman. How can you ask me for a drink?" (For Jews do not associate with
Samaritans.)
10 Yahshua answered her, "If you knew the gift of Elohim and who it is that
asks you for a drink, you would have asked Him and He would have given
you living water."
25 The woman said, I know that the Moshiach is coming. When He comes,
He will explain everything to us."
26 Then Yahshua declared, "I who speak to you am He."
39 Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Him because of the
woman's testimony, "He told me everything I ever did."
40 So when the Samaritans came to Him, they urged Him to stay with them,
and He stayed two days.
41 And because of His words many more became believers.
42 They said to the woman, "We no longer believe just because of what you
said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is
the Savior of the world, the Moshiach."
43 After the two days He left for Galilee.
166
Too bad for us what Yahshua talked about for those two days was never
recorded In the Gospels!
The Kingdom is at Hand
Luke 4:43 But He said, "I must preach the good news of the kingdom of
Elohim to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent."
Acts 1:6 So when they met together, they asked Him, "Master, are you at
this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?"
Acts 1:7 He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the
Father has set by His own authority.
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and
you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and
to the ends of the earth."
Luke 12:32 "Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been
pleased to give you the kingdom.
There has only been a covenant for Yisrael; either you are part or you are
not! Yisrael has always been open to whomsoever will sojourn with it and
join themselves to YHVH, as His Torah teaches us His covenant
relationship with us is to be set-apart before Him.
Exodus 12:49 One Torah shall be to him that is home born, and unto the
stranger that sojourns among you.
Exodus 12:48 And when a stranger shall sojourn with you, and will keep
the Passover to YHVH, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him
come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for
no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
Numbers 9:14 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the
Passover unto YHVH; according to the ordinance of the Passover, and
according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: you shall have one
ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
167
Numbers 15:15 One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation,
and also for the stranger that sojourns with you, an ordinance for ever in
your generations: as you are, so shall the stranger be before YHVH.
16 One Torah and one ordinance shall be for you, and for the stranger
that sojourns with you.
Numbers 15:29 You shall have one Torah for him that sins through
ignorance, both for him that is born among the children of Israel, and for
the stranger that sojourns among them.
Three times YHVH said there will be ONE TORAH for Yisrael and for
the sojourner. ONE TORAH not two! Or maybe the rabbi’s will claim the
‘oral torah’ is only for the Jews since it is the house of Judah that made it up.
Romans 8:28
168
PRAYER......what Scripture says:
Does YHVH hear all your prayers? “Sure He does” is a common belief,
but Scripture has a lot to say about prayer. I’m sure most of you are familiar
with most of the verses listed below but I assure you, and will show that they
are only part of the whole picture.
Psalms 65:2
O You who hear prayer, to You all men will come.
Psalms 86:5-7
For You, YHVH, are good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy
unto all them that call upon You.
Psalms 102:17-18
He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
18. This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people who
shall be created shall praise YHVH.
169
Psalms 141:1-2
YHVH, I cry unto You: make hasten unto me; give ear unto my voice, when
I cry unto You.
2. Let my prayer be set forth before You as incense; and the lifting up of
my hands as the evening sacrifice.
Psalms 86:1
Bow down Your ear, O YHVH, hear me: for I am poor and needy.
Psalms 84:8
O YHVH Elohim of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O Elohim of Jacob.
Selah.

supplications.

faithfulness answer me, and in Your righteousness.

If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."
Matthew 7:7-8
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall
be opened unto you:
8. For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that
knocks it shall be opened.
Philippians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving, present your requests to Elohim.
7. And the peace of Elohim, which transcends all understanding, will guard
your hearts and your minds in Messiah Yahshua.
James 5:14-16
170
Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over
him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Master.
15. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the
Master will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.
16. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so
that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man
avails much.
James 5:17-18
Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and
it did not rain on the land for three and a half years.
18. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its
crops.
The above is only 'one side of the coin' or only part of the ‘whole picture’,
NOW THE REST OF THE PICTURE......
Proverbs 9:10
The reverence of YHVH is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge
of the Holy is understanding.
Proverbs 15:28-29
The heart of the righteous studies to answer: but the mouth of the wicked
pours out evil things.
29. YHVH is far from the wicked: but He hears the prayer of the
righteous.
Proverbs 15:8-9
The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to YHVH: but the prayer of
the upright is His delight.
9. The way of the wicked is an abomination unto YHVH: but He loves
him that follows after righteousness.
Proverbs 28:9-10
171
He that turns away his ear from hearing the law, (Torah) even his prayer
shall be abomination.
10. Whosoever causes the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall
fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in
possession.
Proverbs 28:9
He that turns away his ear from hearing the Torah,
even his prayer shall be abomination.
Psalms 66:17-20
I cried unto Him with my mouth, and He was extolled with my tongue.
18. If I regard iniquity in my heart, YHVH will not hear me:
19. But verily Elohim has heard me; He has attended to the voice of my
prayer. (Because David was considered a righteous man with a heart
after YHVH)
20. Blessed be Elohim, which has not turned away my prayer, nor His
mercy from me.
18. If I regard iniquity in my heart, YHVH will not hear

me:
Psalms 69:13
But as for me, my prayer is unto You, O YHVH, in an acceptable time:
O Elohim, in the multitude of Your mercy hear me, in the truth of Your
salvation.
Matthew 23:14
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows'
houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore you shall receive the
greater damnation
Jeremiah 7:15-16
And I will cast you out of My sight, as I have cast out all your brethren,
even the whole seed of Ephraim.*
16. Therefore pray not you for this people, neither lift up cry nor
prayer for them, neither make intercession to Me: for I will not hear
you.
172
*(This is a warning to Judah that YHVH will do the same to them as He
had done to the NTT about a hundred years earlier. This shows that YHVH
does not change, He told all Yisrael this would come to pass back in the
wilderness. Re: Duet.28:64: “And YHVH shall scatter you among all
people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there you shall
serve other elohim, which neither you nor your fathers have known, even
wood and stone”).
Lamentations 3:8
Also when I cry and shout, He shuts out my prayer.
Lamentations 3:44
You have covered Yourself with a cloud, that our prayer should not pass
through.
1 Peter 3:12
For the eyes of YHVH are over the righteous, and His ears are open unto
their prayers: but the face of YHVH is against them that do evil. (Again, do
not rely on your definition of evil but rather what YHVH says is evil in His eyes
according to Scripture! There is a chapter on this subject.)
Job 22:21-23
Acquaint now yourself with Him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come
unto you.
22. Receive, I pray you, the Torah from His mouth, and lay up His words
in your heart.
23. If you return to the Almighty, you shall be built up, you shall put away
iniquity far from your tents.
Job 22:24-28
Then shall you lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of
the brooks.
25. Yea, the Almighty shall be your defense, and you shall have plenty of
silver.
26. For then shall you have your delight in the Almighty, and shall lift up
your face unto Elohim.
27. You shall make your prayer unto Him, and He shall hear you, and you
shall pay your vows.
173
28. You shall also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto you: and
the light shall shine upon your ways.
if, then, then, …. Now we see there are conditions in place for passages
like Mat.7:7-8 and 21:22 (from the first part of this teaching).
The Prayer of a Righteous Man Avails Much
Ezekiel 14:14
Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should
deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, says YHVH Elohim.
Daniel 9:3-6
And I set my face unto YHVH Elohim, to seek by prayer and supplications,
with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:
4. And I prayed unto YHVH my Elohim, and made my confession, and
said, O YHVH, the great and dreadful Elohim, keeping the covenant and
mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep His commandments;
5. We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly,
and have rebelled, even by departing from Your precepts and from Your
judgments:
6. Neither have we hearkened unto Your servants the prophets, which
spoke in Your Name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the
people of the land.
Daniel 9:13-14
As it is written in the Torah of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet we
made not our prayer before YHVH our Elohim, that we might turn from our
iniquities, and understand Your truth.
14. Therefore has YHVH watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us:
for YHVH our Elohim is righteous in all His works which He does: for we
obeyed not His voice.
Daniel 9:17-23
Now therefore, O our Elohim, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his
supplications, and cause Your face to shine upon Your sanctuary that is
desolate, for YHVH's sake.
174
18. O my Elohim, incline Your ear, and hear; open Your eyes, and behold
our desolations, and the city which is called by Your Name: for we do not
present our supplications before You for our righteousness, but for Your
great mercies.
19. O YHVH, hear; O YHVH, forgive; O YHVH, hearken and do; defer
not, for Your own sake, O my Elohim: for Your city and Your people who
are called by Your Name.
20. And while I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the
sin of my people Yisrael, and presenting my supplication before YHVH my
Elohim for the Holy mountain of my Elohim;
21. Yea, even while I was speaking in prayer, even Gabriel, the man whom
I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched
me about the time of the evening oblation.
22. And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now
come forth to give you skill and understanding.
23. At the beginning of your supplications the commandment came forth,
and I am come to show you; for you are greatly beloved: therefore
understand the matter, and consider the vision.
If I do intercessory prayer, I approach the throne seeking forgiveness first,

pleading the blood, asking to be shown my hidden sin for the purpose of
appearing before Him as a cleaned up, righteous servant; because the lesson
here is the prayer of a righteous man avails more in YHVH’s hearing.
1 Kings 8:27-30
But will Elohim indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, the heaven and heaven
of heavens cannot contain You; how much less this house that I have built?
28. Yet have You respect unto the prayer of Your servant, and to his
supplication, O YHVH my Elohim, to listen unto the cry and to the prayer,
which Your servant prays before You to day:
29. That Your eyes may be open toward this house night and day, even
toward the place of which You have said, My name shall be there: that You
may hearken unto the prayer which Your servant shall make toward this
place.
30. And hearken to the supplication of Your servant, and of Your people
Yisrael, when they shall pray toward this place: and hear in heaven Your
dwelling place: and when You hear, forgive.
1 Kings 8:38-40
175
What prayer and supplication be made by any man, of all Your people
Yisrael, each one aware of the afflictions of his own heart, and spread forth
his hands toward this house:
39. Then hear You in heaven, Your dwelling place, and forgive, and do,
and give to every man according to his ways*, whose heart You know;
(for You, even You only, know the hearts of all the children of men;)
40. That they may fear You all the days that they live in the land which
You gave unto our fathers
(* Thessalonians 2:10-11
“because they received not the love of The Truth, that they might be
saved.
11. And for this cause Elohim shall send them strong delusion, that they
should believe a lie” and Psalms 81:11-12: “But my people would not
hearken to My voice; and Yisrael did not consent me.
12. So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their
own counsels.”)
corrupt: who can know it? (The ego can have your heart lie to you!)
1 Kings 8:45-50
Then hear You in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain
their cause.
46. If they sin against You, (for there is no man that sins not,) and You be
angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them
away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near;
47. yet if they shall have a change of heart in the land wherever they were
carried captives, and repent, and make supplication unto You in the land of
them that carried them captives, saying, We have sinned, and have done
perversely, we have committed wickedness;
48. And so return unto You with all their heart, and with all their soul,
in the land of their enemies, which led them away captive, and pray unto
You toward their land, which You gave unto their fathers, the city which
You have chosen, and the house which I have built for Your Name:
49. Then hear You their prayer and their supplication in heaven Your
dwelling place, and maintain their cause,
176
50. And forgive Your people that have sinned against You and all their
transgressions wherein they have transgressed against You, and give them
compassion before them who carried them captive, that they may have
compassion on them:
When the Temple, envisioned for YHVH’s glory on earth by David who
had a heart after YHVH’s heart, was finished and Solomon was dedicating
it, I feel he was still a righteous man before YHVH in order to have such a
powerful prayer heard. (See 2Chronicles 7:14-16 below) I don’t think he had
not yet his multitude of wives that he built high places for their false elohim;
and if he was already falling away then YHVH heard him for His Names
sake. I feel it had to be one or the other because Scripture cannot contradict
Scripture.
2 Chronicles 7:14-16
If My people, which are called by My Name, shall humble themselves,
and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I
hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
15. Now My eyes shall be open, and My ears attend unto the prayer that is
made in this place.
16. For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that My Name may be
there for ever: and My eyes and My heart shall be there perpetually.
Nehemiah 1:8-11
Remember, I beseech You, the word that You commanded Your servant
Moses, saying, If you transgress, I will scatter you abroad among the
nations:
9. But if you turn unto Me, and keep My commandments, and do them;
though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, yet
will I gather them from there, and will bring them unto the place that I
have chosen to set my name there.
10. Now these are Your servants and Your people, whom You have
redeemed by Your great power, and by Your strong hand.
11. O YHVH, I beseech You, let now Your ear be attentive to the prayer of
Your servant, and to the prayer of Your servants, who desire to reverence
Your Name: and prosper, I pray You, Your servant this day, and grant him
mercy in the sight of this man. For I was the king's cupbearer.
Isaiah 1:9-13
177
Except YHVH of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should
have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
10. Hear the word of YHVH, you leaders of Sodom; give ear unto the
Torah of our Elohim, you people of Gomorrah.
11. To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto Me? Says
YHVH: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts;
and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats. **
12. When you come to appear before Me, who has required this at your
hand, to tread My courts?
13. Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is detestable to Me.
New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations-- I cannot bear your evil
assemblies.
( ** Psalms 51:16-19
For You desire not sacrifice; else would I give it: You delight not in burnt
offering.
17. The sacrifices of Elohim are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite
heart, O Elohim, these You will not despise.
18. Do good in Your good pleasure unto Zion: build You the walls of
Jerusalem.
19. Then shall You be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with
burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon
Your altar.)
Isaiah 1:14-20
14. Your new moons and your appointed feasts My Soul hates: they are a
trouble unto Me; I am weary to bear them.
15. And when you spread forth your hands, I will hide My eyes from you:
yea, when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of
blood.
16. Wash, make yourself clean; put away the evil of your doings from
17. Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the
fatherless, plead for the widow.
18. Come now, and let us reason together, says YHVH: though your sins be
as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson,
they shall be as wool.
19. If you be willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land:
178
20. But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword: for
the mouth of YHVH has spoken it.
Isaiah 56:1-12
Thus says YHVH, Keep judgment, and do justice: for My salvation is near
to come, and My Righteousness to be revealed.
2. Blessed is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold on it;
that keeps the Sabbath from polluting it, and keeps his hand from doing
any evil.
3. Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to YHVH,
speak, saying, YHVH has utterly separated me from his people: neither let
the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
4. For thus says YHVH unto the eunuchs that keep My Sabbaths, and
choose the things that please Me, and take hold of My covenant;
5. Even unto them will I give in My house and within My walls a place and
a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting
name, which shall not be cut off.
6. Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to YHVH, to serve
7. Even them will I bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in
My house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be
all people.
8. YHVH Elohim, which gathers the outcasts of Yisrael says, Yet will I
gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
9. All you beasts of the field, come to devour, all you beasts in the forest.
10. His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb
dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
11. Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are
shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every
one for his gain, from his quarter.
12. Come, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong
drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.
Isaiah 58:1-14
1. Cry aloud, spare not, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and show My
people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.
179
2. Yet they seek Me daily, and delight to know My ways, as a nation that
did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their Elohim: they ask of
Me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to Elohim.
3. Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and You see not? Wherefore have
we afflicted our soul, and You take no knowledge? Behold, in the day of
your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.
4. Behold, you fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of
wickedness: you shall not fast as you do this day, to make your voice to be
heard on high.
5. Is it such a fast that I have chosen? A day for a man to afflict his soul? Is
it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes
under him? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to YHVH?
6. Is not this the fast that I have chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness,
to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you
break every yoke?
7. Is it not to deal your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor that
are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and
that you hide not yourself from your own flesh? (This is part of Torah, folks)
8. Then shall your light break forth as the morning, and your health shall
spring forth speedily: and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory
of YHVH shall be your reward.
9. Then shall you call, and YHVH shall answer; you shall cry, and He shall
say, Here am I. If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the putting
forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;
10. And if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted
soul; then shall your light rise in obscurity, and your darkness be as the
noonday:
11. And YHVH shall guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in
drought, and make fat your bones: and you shall be like a watered garden,
and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.
12. And they that shall be of you shall build the old waste places: you shall
raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called, The
repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
13. If you turn away your foot on the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on
My Holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the Holy of YHVH, honorable;
and shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own
pleasure, nor speaking your own words:
14. Then shall you delight yourself in YHVH; and I will cause you to ride
upon the high places of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob
your father: for the mouth of YHVH has spoken it.
180
Matthew 6:6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray
to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in
secret, will reward you.
7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think
they will be heard because of their many words.
8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you
ask Him.
9 "This, then, is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name,

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For
Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Amien.
EVIL
Exodus 23:2
you shall not follow a multitude to do EVIL; neither shall you speak in a
cause to turn aside after many to pervert judgment:
Numbers 14:27
How long shall I bear with this EVIL congregation, which murmur against
Me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Yisrael, which they
murmur against Me.
Numbers 32:13
181
And YHVH's anger was kindled against Yisrael, and He made them wander
in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation, that had done EVIL in
the sight of YHVH, was consumed.
Deuteronomy 1:39
Moreover your little ones, which you said should be a prey, and your
children, which in this day have no knowledge between good and EVIL,
they shall go in there, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
“ No knowledge between good and EVIL” is a subtle clue as to what evil

is in the eyes of YHVH, as most of these children were not present at Mount
Sinai to hear the Torah. If you will pay close attention to the underlined
actions in these verses it should be crystal clear.
Deuteronomy 4:25-26
When you shall beget children, and children's children, and you shall have
remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven
image, or the likeness of any thing, and shall do EVIL in the sight of YHVH
your Elohim, to provoke him to anger:
26. I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that you shall
soon utterly perish from off the land.
Deuteronomy 13:5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put
to death; because he has spoken to turn you away from YHVH your Elohim,
which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the
house of bondage, to thrust you out of ‘The Way’ which YHVH your
Elohim commanded you to walk in. So shall you put the EVIL away from
the midst of you.
Deuteronomy 15:9
Beware that there be not a thought in your wicked heart, saying, The
seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and your eye be EVIL against
your poor brother, and you give him naught; and he cry unto YHVH against
you, and it be sin unto you.
Deuteronomy 17:6-7
At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of
death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to
death.
182
7. The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death,
and afterward the hands of all the people. So you shall put the EVIL away
from among you.
And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the
priest that stands to minister there before YHVH your Elohim, or unto the
judge, even that man shall die: and you shall put away the EVIL from
Yisrael.
13. And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more
presumptuously.
And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be
a false witness, and has testified falsely against his brother;
19. Then shall you do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his
brother: so shall you put the EVIL away from among you.
20. And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth
commit no more any such EVIL among you.
And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and
rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.
21. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so
shall you put EVIL away from among you; and all Yisrael shall hear, and
fear.
Deuteronomy 22:22
If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, then they
shall both of them die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the
woman: so shall you put away EVIL from Yisrael.
For this commandment which I command you this day, it is not hidden from
you, neither is it far off.
12. It is not in heaven, that you should say, who shall go up for us to
heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
183
13. Neither is it beyond the sea, that you should say, who shall go over the
sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
14. But the Word is very nigh unto you, in your mouth, and in your heart,
that you may do it.
15. See, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and EVIL;
16. In that I command you this day to love YHVH your Elohim, to walk
in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His
judgments, that you may live and multiply: and YHVH your Elohim shall
bless you in the land where you go to possess it.
17. But if your heart turn away, so that you will not hear, but shall be
drawn away, and worship other elohim, and serve them;
18. I denounce unto you this day, that you shall surely perish, and that you
shall not prolong your days upon the land, when you pass over the Jordan to
go to possess it.
19. I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set
before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that
both you and your seed may live:
20. That you may love YHVH your Elohim, and that you may obey His
voice, and that you may cleave unto Him: for He is your life, and the length
of your days: that you may dwell in the land which YHVH swore unto your
fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
Deuteronomy 31:29
For I know that after my death you will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn
aside from the way which I have commanded you; and EVIL will befall you
in the latter days; because you will do EVIL in the sight of YHVH, to
provoke Him to anger through the work of your hands.
Joshua 23:15-16
Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all good things are come upon you,
which YHVH your Elohim promised you; so shall YHVH bring upon you
all EVIL things, until He has destroyed you from off this good land which
YHVH your Elohim has given you.
16. When you have transgressed the covenant of YHVH your Elohim,
which He commanded you, and have gone and served other elohim, and
bowed yourselves to them; then shall the anger of YHVH be kindled against
you, and you shall perish quickly from off the good land which He has given
unto you.
184
Joshua 24:15
And if it seem EVIL unto you to serve YHVH, choose you this day whom
you will serve; whether the elohim which your fathers served that were on
the other side of the flood, or the elohim of the Amorites, in whose land you
dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve YHVH.
Judges 2:11
And the children of Yisrael did EVIL in the sight of YHVH, and served
Baalim:
Judges 3:5-7And the children of Yisrael dwelt among the Canaanites,

Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites:
6. And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters
to their sons, and served their elohim.
7. And the children of Yisrael did EVIL in the sight of YHVH, and forgot
YHVH their Elohim, and served Baalim and the groves.
1 Samuel 2:22-23
Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Yisrael; and
how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of
the congregation.
23. And he said unto them, Why do you such things? For I hear of your
EVIL dealings by all this people.
1 Samuel 15:19
Wherefore then did you not obey the voice of YHVH, but did fly upon the
spoil, and did EVIL in the sight of YHVH?
1 Samuel 15:19
1 Samuel 15:19
2 Samuel 12:9
Wherefore have you despised the commandment of YHVH, to do EVIL
in His sight? You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have
185
taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the
children of Ammon.
1 Kings 11:6-11
And Solomon did EVIL in the sight of YHVH, and went not fully after
YHVH, as did David his father.
7. Then did Solomon build high places for Chemosh, the abomination of
Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination
of the children of Ammon.
8. And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and
sacrificed unto their elohim.
9. And YHVH was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from
YHVH Elohim of Yisrael, which had appeared unto him twice,
10. And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go
after other elohim: but he kept not that which YHVH commanded.
11. Wherefore YHVH said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of
you, and you have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have
commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you, and will give it
to your servant.
1 Kings 12:28-33
Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold, and said
unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold your
Elohim, O Yisrael, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
29. And he set the one in Bethel, and the other put he in Dan.
30. And this thing became a sin: for the people went to worship before the
one, even unto Dan.
31. And he made a house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of
the people, which were not of the sons of Levi.
32. And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day
of the month, like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he offered upon the
altar. So did he in Bethel, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and
he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places which he had made.
33. So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Bethel the fifteenth
day of the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his
own heart; and ordained a feast unto the children of Yisrael: and he offered
upon the altar, and burnt incense.
186
THIS IS EVIL IN THE EYES OF YHVH !
1 Kings 14:8-10
And tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it you: and
yet you have not been as My servant David, who kept My commandments,
and who followed Me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in
My eyes;
9. But have done EVIL above all that were before you: for you have gone
and made you other elohim, and molten images, to provoke Me to anger, and
have cast Me behind your back:
10. Therefore, behold, I will bring EVIL upon the house of Jeroboam, and
will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisses against the wall, and him that is
shut up and left in Yisrael, and will take away the remnant of the house of
Jeroboam, as a man takes away dung, till it be all gone.
Nehemiah 13:17-18
Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, What EVIL
thing is this that you do, profaning the Sabbath day?
18. Did not your fathers do thus, and did not our Elohim bring all this
EVIL upon us, and upon this city? Yet you bring more wrath upon Yisrael
by profaning the Sabbath.
Psalms 5:4-8
For you are not a Elohim that has pleasure in wickedness: neither shall
EVIL dwell with You.
5. The foolish shall not stand in Your sight: you hate all workers of
iniquity.
6. You shall destroy them that speak lies: YHVH will abhor the bloody and
deceitful man.
7. But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your
mercy: and in Your fear will I worship toward Your Holy temple.
8. Lead me, O YHVH, in Your Righteousness because of my enemies;
make ‘Your Way’ straight before my face.
Psalms 15:1-5
YHVH, who shall abide in Your tabernacle? Who shall dwell in Your Holy
hill?
2. He that walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the Truth
in his heart.
187
3. He that backbites not with his tongue, nor does EVIL to his neighbor,
nor takes up a reproach against his neighbor.
4. In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honors them that fear
YHVH. He that swears to his own hurt, and changes not.
5. He that puts not out his money to usury, nor takes reward against the
innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
Psalms 34:13-16
Keep your tongue from EVIL, and your lips from speaking guile.
14. Depart from EVIL, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15. The eyes of YHVH are upon the righteous, and His ears are open unto
their cry.
16. The face of YHVH is against them that do EVIL, to cut off the
remembrance of them from the earth.
Psalms 37:7-10
Rest in YHVH, and wait patiently for Him: fret not your self because of him
who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to
pass.
8. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not your self in any wise to do
EVIL.
9. For EVIL doers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon YHVH, they
shall inherit the earth.
10. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, you shall
diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
Psalms 37:27-31
Depart from EVIL, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
28. For YHVH loves judgment, and forsakes not His saints; they are
preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
29. The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
30. The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of
judgment.
31. The Torah of his Elohim is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
Psalms 50:16-22
But unto the wicked Elohim says, "What right have you to recite My laws
or take My covenant on your lips?
17. Seeing you hated instruction, and cast My Words behind you.
188
18. When you saw a thief, then you consented with him, and have been
partaker with adulterers.
19. You give your mouth to EVIL, and your tongue frames deceit.
20. You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your own mother's
son.
21. These things have you done, and I kept silence; you thought that I was
altogether such a one as your self: but I will reprove you, and set them in
order before your eyes.
22. Now consider this, you that forget Elohim, lest I tear you in pieces,
and there be none to deliver.
Psalms 51:1-4
Have mercy upon me, O Elohim, according to Your loving kindness:
according unto the multitude of Your tender mercies blot out my
transgressions.
2. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4. Against You, You only, have I sinned, and done EVIL in Your sight:
that You might be justified when You speak, and be clear when You Judge.
Psalms 91:9-14
Because you have made YHVH, which is my refuge, even the most High,
your habitation;
10. Shall no EVIL befall you, neither shall any plague come nigh your
dwelling.
11. For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your
ways.
12. They shall bear you up in their hands, lest you dash your foot against a
stone.
13. You shall tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the serpent
shall you trample under feet.
14. Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him: I will
set him on high, because he has known My Name.
15. He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in
trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.
16. With long life will I satisfy him, and show him My salvation.
Psalms 97:10-12

delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.

obey Your Word.
Psalms 121:5-8
YHVH is your keeper: YHVH is your shade upon your right hand.
6. The sun shall not smite you by day, nor the moon by night.

8. YHVH shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time
forth, and even for evermore.
Proverbs 2:11-14
Discretion shall preserve you, understanding shall keep you:
12. To deliver you from the way of the EVIL man, from the man that
speaks froward things;
13. Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in ‘the ways’ of darkness;
14. Who rejoice to do EVIL, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;

In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.
7. Be not wise in your own eyes: fear YHVH, and depart from EVIL.
Proverbs 6:23-28
For the commandments are a lamp; and the Torah is light; and reproofs of
instruction are ‘the way’ of life:
24. To keep you from the EVIL woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a
strange woman.
25. Lust not after her beauty in your heart; neither let her take you with her
eyelids.
26. For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread:
and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.
27. Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
28. Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?
Proverbs 8:12-14
I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
190

way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14. Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have
strength.

of EVIL.

depart from EVIL.

peace with him.

14. The beginning of strife is as when one lets out water: therefore leave off
contention, before it be meddled with.

in his ways, though he is rich.
191
Ecclesiastes 5:1-2
Keep your footing when you go to the house of Elohim, and be more ready
to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do
EVIL.
2. Be not rash with your mouth, and let not your heart be hasty to utter any
thing before Elohim: for Elohim is in heaven, and you upon earth: therefore
let your words be few.
Ecclesiastes 8:5-6
Whosoever keeps the commandments shall feel no EVIL thing: and a wise
man's heart discerns both time and judgment.
6. Because to every purpose there is time and judgment
Isaiah 1:15-20
And when you spread forth your hands, I will hide My eyes from you: yea,
when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of
blood.
16. Wash, make you clean; put away the EVIL of your doings from before
My eyes; cease to do EVIL;
19. If you be willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land:
20. But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword: for
the mouth of YHVH has spoken it.
Isaiah 5:20-24
20. Woe unto them that call EVIL good, and good EVIL; that put
darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and
sweet for bitter!
21. Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their
own sight!
22. Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to
mingle strong drink:
192
23. Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness
of the righteous from him!
24. Therefore as the fire devours the stubble, and the flame consumes the
chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as
dust: because they have cast away the Torah of YHVH of hosts, and
despised The Word of the Holy One of Yisrael.
Isaiah 13:11
And I will punish the world for their EVIL, and the wicked for their
iniquity; and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will lay
low the haughtiness of the terrible.
Isaiah 33:15 He that walks righteously, and speaks uprightly; is he that

despises the gain of oppressions, that shakes his hands from taking a bribe,
that stops his ears from hearing of blood, and shuts his eyes from looking
upon EVIL:
Isaiah 56:1-7
Thus says YHVH, Keep judgment, and do justice: for My Salvation is near
to come, and My Righteousness to be revealed.
2. Blessed is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold on it;
that keeps the Sabbath from profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any
EVIL.
3. Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to YHVH,
speak, saying, YHVH has utterly separated me from His people: neither let
the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
4. For thus says YHVH unto the eunuchs that keep My Sabbaths, and
choose the things that please Me, and take hold of My covenant;
5. Even unto them will I give in My house and within My walls a place and
a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting
name, that shall not be cut off.
6. Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to YHVH, to serve
7. Even them will I bring to My Holy mountain, and make them joyful in
My house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be
all people.
Isaiah 65:12-14
193
Therefore will I number you to the sword, and you shall all bow down to
the slaughter: because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke,
you did not hear; but did EVIL before My eyes, and did choose that
wherein I delighted not.
13. Therefore thus says YHVH Elohim, Behold, My servants shall eat, but
you shall be hungry: behold, My servants shall drink, but you shall be
thirsty: behold, My servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed:
14. Behold, My servants shall sing for joy of heart, but you shall cry for
sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
Isaiah 66:4-5
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them;
because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear:
but they did EVIL before my eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
5. Hear the word of YHVH, you that tremble at His Word; Your brethren
that hated you, that cast you out for My Name's sake, said, Let YHVH be
glorified: but He shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed
Evil, according to Scripture, is NOT DOING the

commands of Elohim. If you go to Church or Synagogue
but don’t do the will of YHVH then you are doing evil in
His eyes, you need to stop, repent, change your ways and
seek His forgiveness; because His Word says:
Psalms 130:4
But there is forgiveness with You, that You may be feared.
Daniel 9:9-10
To YHVH our Elohim belong mercies and forgiveness; for we have
rebelled against Him;
10. neither have we obeyed the voice of YHVH our Elohim, to walk in His
laws, which He set before us by His servants the prophets.
Psalms 86:15-16
194
But you, O YHVH, are an Elohim merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and
abundant in racham* and truth. (*compassion)
16. Oh turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; Give Your strength unto
Your servant, And save the son of Your handmaid.
The Word of YHVH tells us what we can do to receive forgiveness of sins;

men do not have the authority to grant it (Catholic priests) or to add to or
change what Elohim’s Word says we must do to achieve forgiveness in His
eyes. (Jewish Rabbi’s)
Matthew 11:15. He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
Romans 8:28
Acceptable Sacrifices to YHVH
The purpose of this chapter is to show, from Scripture, that YHVH desires
OBEDIENCE more than sacrifices. Sacrifices were not proscribed for sin in
the Torah until after the sin of the golden calf. Before that time they were a
way of giving homage and thanks to YHVH. (Abel’s and Cain’s and Noah’s
are examples)
195
In my early walk I had an adversary whom I call a cafeteria Christian
because he would pick and chose verses out of context to prove his doctrines
that totally ignored precepts of righteousness expected from believers. To
him anything we did was as filthy rags before YHVH. We were saved by
grace alone and all we had to do was believe, love ‘the Lord’ and our fellow
man as ourselves and the Holy Spirit would lead us how to walk! I don’t
know what spirit led him because he had a pornography problem.
I would like to thank that man today because his beliefs were the impetus
for my journey to reconcile Scriptures that ‘seem’ to contradict one another.
leads to death.
Genesis 8:20 Then Noah built an altar to YHVH and, taking some of all the
clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it.
21 And YHVH smelled a sweet savor and said in His heart: "Never
again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination
of his heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living
creatures, as I have done.
This spontaneous offering from Noah pleased YHVH so much He

removed the curse of thorns and thistles put upon Adam.
Psalms 96:8 Ascribe to YHVH the glory due His Name; bring an offering
and come into His courts.
Psalms 20
8 I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices or your burnt offerings, which are
ever before Me.
5 Gather my saints together unto Me, Those that have made a covenant
with Me by sacrifice.
Psalms 20:3 He will remember all your sacrifices and accept your burnt
offerings. Selah
Psalms 4:5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, And put your trust in
YHVH.
196
Psalms 4:5 Offer right sacrifices and trust in YHVH.
Righteousness is obeying YHVH! THEN your sacrifices will be

considered ‘right’ and be accepted. People often quote Isaiah chapter one out
of context, especially verse thirteen, trying to say things like sacrifices are an
abomination to YHVH and even try to link the Sabbath and Feasts to this
negative light. In proper context Isaiah was chastising an extremely
backslidden and evil people who had an outward show without the proper
heart attitude. Consider the five verses you just read above.
Isaiah 1:13 Stop bringing meaningless offerings! Your incense is
detestable to Me. New Moons, Sabbaths and convocations-- I cannot bear
your evil assemblies.
Isaiah 1:13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto
Me; new moon and Sabbath, the calling of assemblies,-- I cannot away with
iniquity and the solemn meeting.
Isaiah 1:11-20
To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto Me? Says YHVH: I
am full of the burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight
not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
12. When you come to appear before Me, who has required this at your
hand, to tread My courts?
13. Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto Me; the
new moons and Sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot bear with
iniquity and the solemn meeting.
14. Your new moons and your appointed Feasts My Soul hates: they are a
trouble unto Me; I am weary to bear them.
15. And when you spread forth your hands, I will hide My eyes from you:
yea, when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of
blood.
(Proverbs 21:27 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination: How

much more, when he brings it with a wicked mind!)
197
16. Wash , make yourself clean; put away the evil of your doings from
19 If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best from the land;
20 but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword." For the
mouth of YHVH has spoken it.
Proverbs 15:8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to YHVH;

But the prayer of the upright is His delight.
1 Samuel 15:22 But Samuel replied: "Does YHVH delight in burnt

offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of YHVH? To
obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness and
insolence is as idolatry. Because you have rejected the Word of YHVH, He
has also rejected you from being king.
Proverbs 15:8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to YHVH:

but the prayer of the upright is His delight.
Considering all the passages so far, in context to reconcile Scripture, then

Psalm 51:16 and Isaiah 66:3 must be referring to sacrifices from wicked
people!
Psalms 51:16 You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; You do
not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
17 The sacrifices of Elohim are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart,
O Elohim, these You will not despise.
18 In your good pleasure make Zion prosper; build up the walls of
Jerusalem. (Compare to Isaiah 1:21 and Psalm 127:1)
19 Then there will be righteous sacrifices, whole burnt offerings to
delight You; then bulls will be offered on Your altar.
If we seek to walk in righteousness, our sacrifices will be welcome. There

was a sacrifice that was made for all who would like to be reconciled to
198
YHVH; that was made in a righteousness that eludes us. Baruch haShem
YHVH!
Isaiah 66:1 This is what YHVH says: "Heaven is My throne, and the earth is
My footstool. Where is the house you will build for Me? Where will My
resting place be?
2 Has not My hand made all these things, and so they came into being?"
declares YHVH. "This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite
in spirit, and trembles at My Word.
3 But whoever sacrifices a bull is like one who kills a man, and whoever
offers a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck; whoever makes a grain
offering is like one who presents pig's blood, and whoever burns memorial
incense, like one who worships an idol. They have chosen their own ways,
and their souls delight in their abominations; *
4 so I also will choose harsh treatment for them and will bring upon them
what they dread. For when I called, no one answered, when I spoke, no one
listened. They did evil in My sight and chose what displeases Me."
* Those who try to approach YHVH who are not obedient, with a right
heart, are the ones whose sacrifices are likened to those described in verse 3.
Righteous sacrifices are what are proscribed in Torah. RE: Proverbs 15:8
and 21:27.
Jeremiah 6:19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even
the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto My
Words; and as for My Torah, they have rejected it.
20 To what purpose comes there to Me frankincense from Sheba, and the
sweet cane from a far country? Your burnt-offerings are not acceptable, nor
your sacrifices pleasing unto Me.
Jeremiah 7:20-28
Therefore thus says YHVH Elohim; Behold, My anger and My fury shall be
poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of
the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be
quenched.
21. Thus says YHVH of hosts, the Elohim of Yisrael; Put your burnt
offerings unto your sacrifices, and eat flesh.
199
22. For I spoke not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that
I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or
sacrifices: *
23. But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey My voice, and I will
be your Elohim, and you shall be My people: and walk in all the ways that I
have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.
24. But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the
counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and
not forward.
25. Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto
this day I have even sent unto you all My servants the prophets, daily rising
up early and sending them:
26. Yet they hearkened not unto Me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened
their neck: they did worse than their fathers.
27. Therefore you shall speak all these words unto them; but they will not
hearken to you: you shall also call unto them; but they will not answer you.
28. But you shall say unto them, This is a nation that obeys not the voice of
YHVH their Elohim, nor receives correction: truth is perished, and is cut
off from their mouth.
* Sin sacrifices were added to Torah after the sin of the golden calf.
(The following prophecy was to the NTT)
Amos 5:20-27
Shall not the day of YHVH be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and
no brightness in it?
21. I hate, I despise your feast days, and I take no delight in your solemn
assemblies. *
22. Though you offer Me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will
not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
23. Take you away from Me the noise of your songs; for I will not hear the
melody of your harps.
24. But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a
mighty stream.
25. Have you offered unto Me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness
forty years, O house of Yisrael?
26. But you have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your
images, the star of your elohim, which you made to yourselves.
200
27. Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus,
says YHVH, whose name is The Elohim of hosts.
* You must remember that Jeroboam changed the feasts of YHVH to the
eight month, made high places and made priests of people who where nor
Levites.
Amos 5:1-7
Hear you this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house
of Yisrael.
2. The virgin of Yisrael is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken
upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
3. For thus says YHVH Elohim; The city that went out by a thousand shall
leave a hundred, and that which went forth by a hundred shall leave ten, to
the house of Yisrael.
4. For thus says YHVH unto the house of Yisrael, Seek Me, and you shall
live:
5. But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for
Gilgal shall surely go into captivity and Bethel shall come to naught.
6. Seek YHVH, and you shall live; lest He break out like fire in the house
of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel.
7. You who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in
the earth.
(This prophecy was to Judah after the NTT had gone into captivity)
Micah 6:1-5
Hear you now what YHVH says; Arise, contend you before the mountains,
and let the hills hear your voice.
2. Hear you, O mountains, YHVH's controversy, and you strong
foundations of the earth: for YHVH has a controversy with His people,
and He will plead with Yisrael.
3. O My people, what have I done unto you? And wherein have I wearied
you? Testify against Me.
4. For I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of
the house of servants; and I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
5 All this is because of Jacob's transgression, because of the sins of the
house of Israel. What is Jacob's transgression? Is it not Samaria? What is
Judah's high place? Is it not Jerusalem?
201
Micah 6:6-8
Wherewith shall I come before YHVH, and bow myself before the high
Elohim? Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year
old?
7. Will YHVH be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of
rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my
body for the sin of my soul?
8. He has showed you, O man, what is good; and what does YHVH
require of you, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly
with your Elohim?
Hosea 6:6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of
Elohim more than burnt offerings.
Matthew 9:13 But go and learn what this means: Ì desire mercy, not
sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
Psalms 69:30 I will praise the Name of Elohim with a song, And will
magnify Him with thanksgiving.
31 This will please YHVH more than an ox, more than a bull with its horns
and hoofs.
Leviticus 1:9 He is to wash the inner parts and the legs with water, and the
priest is to burn all of it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made
by fire, an aroma pleasing to YHVH.
Ezekiel 20:41 As a sweet savor will I accept you, when I bring you out
from the peoples, and gather you out of the countries wherein you have
been scattered; and I will be sanctified in you in the sight of the nations.
2 Corinthians 2:15 For we are a sweet savor of Moshiach unto Elohim, in

them that are saved, and in them that perish;
Ephesians 5:2 And walk in love, as Moshiach also has loved us, and has
given Himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to Elohim for a sweet
smelling savor.
202
Many Christians are shocked and do not believe that Scripture tells us in
the millennium Temple ‘the Prince’ (Yahshua?) will again offer sacrifices,
including ones for sin! (Ezekiel chapters 40-45) They simply have no
concept of ‘mistaken’ and ‘foolish’ sins discussed in Torah. We are human
and we err occasionally even with a right heart! YHVH knew in His
omniscience and infinite wisdom that the Temple, where forgiveness of sins
was sought, would not stand much longer. Yahshua’s sacrifice was to hold
us until the time of the millennium Temple!
Romans 8:28

2 He whose walk is blameless and who does what is righteous, who speaks
the Truth from his heart.
Isaiah 28:9 Whom shall he teach KNOWLEDGE? And whom shall he

make to understand doctrine? Them that are weaned from the milk, and
drawn from the breasts?
1 Corinthians 3:2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet
ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready.
Isaiah 33:6 He will be the sure foundation for your times, a rich store of
salvation and wisdom and KNOWLEDGE; the reverence of YHVH is the
key to this treasure.
Beware! There is ‘KNOWLEDGE’ of pride that corrupts!
207
Isaiah 47:10 You have trusted in your wickedness and have said, `No one
sees me.' Your wisdom and KNOWLEDGE mislead you when you say to
yourself, Ì am, and there is none besides me.'
Jeremiah 3:15 Then I will give you shepherds after My Own Heart, who
will lead you with KNOWLEDGE and understanding.
Jeremiah 4:22 For My people are foolish, they have not ‘known’ Me; they
are stupid children, and they have no understanding: they are wise to do evil,
but to do good they have no KNOWLEDGE.
Isaiah 5:13 Therefore My people are gone into captivity for lack of
KNOWLEDGE; and their honorable men are famished, and their multitude
are parched with thirst.
Isaiah 56:10 Israel's watchmen are blind, they all lack KNOWLEDGE;
they are all mute dogs, they cannot bark; they lie around and dream, they
love to sleep.
Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed from lack of KNOWLEDGE.

"Because you have rejected KNOWLEDGE, I also reject you as My priests;
because you have ignored the Torah of your Elohim, I also will ignore
your children.
Jeremiah 11:18 And YHVH gave me KNOWLEDGE of it, and I knew it:
then you showed me their doings.
KNOWLEDGE is seeking the Word of YHVH with all your heart, and all
your soul, and all your might and then DOING WHAT IT TELLS YOU!
Romans 8:28

The World
A lot is said about the ‘world’ in Scripture. The ‘world’ in Scripture

usually refers to the world systems of man. Mankind frequently tries to
elevate themselves to the level of Elohim. They think they can figure out
solutions to all of mankind’s problems that, ironically, were created by man
NOT following the creators’ directions in the first place!
We are in the world, but told not to be ‘of the world’. What does this
mean? I hope the following will give you understanding.
209
1 John 5:19 We know that we are children of Elohim, and that the whole
world is under the control of the evil one.
1 John 2:14 I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is
from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and
the word of Elohim lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one.
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any
man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes
and the vain glory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
1 John 2:16 For everything in the world--the cravings of sinful man, the lust
of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does--comes not from the
Father but from the world.
1 John 2:17 The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the
will of Elohim lives forever.
1 John 2:17 The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does
the will of Elohim lives forever.
1 John 2:17 The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the
will of Elohim lives forever.
1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last hour: and as you heard that the anti-
messiah comes, even now have there arisen many anti-messiahs; whereby
we know that it is the last hour.
Acts 3:19-24
Repent you therefore, and turn to Elohim, that your sins may be blotted out,
when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of YHVH.
20. And He shall send Yahshua haMoshiach, which before was preached
unto you:
21. Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all
things, which Elohim has spoken by the mouth of all His Holy prophets
since the world began.
210
22. For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall YHVH your
Elohim raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; Him you shall hear
in all things whatsoever He shall say unto you.
23. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that
prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
24. Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as
many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
Matthew 17:11 And Yahshua answered and said unto them, Eliyahu truly
shall first come, and restore all things.
1 John 3:1 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us,
that we should be called children of Elohim; and such we are. For this cause
the world knows us not, because it knew him not.
1 John 3:13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.
1 John 3:17 If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need
but has no pity on him, how can the love of Elohim be in him?
1 John 4:1 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see
whether they are from Elohim, because many false prophets have gone out
into the world.
False prophets do not teach obedience from love, they are inspired by
spirits that are not of YHVH.
2 This is how you can recognize the Spirit of Elohim: Every spirit that
acknowledges that Yahshua haMoshiach has come in the flesh is from
Elohim,
Yahshua came to forgive our sins so we can be reconciled to YHVH to

walk in ‘The Way’ He has asked of us by obeying Him.
3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Yahshua is not from Elohim.
This is the spirit of the anti-messiah, which you have heard is coming and
even now is already in the world.
4 You, dear children, are from Elohim and have overcome them, because
the One who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
211
1 John 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they as of the world, and
the world hears them.
6 We are of Elohim: he that ‘knows’ Elohim hears us; he who is not of
Elohim hears us not. By this we know the Spirit of Truth, and the spirit of
error.
1 John 4:17 In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will
have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like
Him.
1 John 5:4 for everyone born of Elohim overcomes the world. This is the
victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.
James 2:17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by

action, is dead.
18 But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your
faith without works, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
James 1:22 But be you doers of the word, and not hearers only, deluding
your own selves.
James 1:22 Do not merely listen to The Word, and so deceive yourselves.
Do what it says.
1 John 5:19 We know that we are children of Elohim, and that the whole
world is under the control of the evil one.
Revelation 3:10 Since you have kept My command to endure patiently, I

will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the
whole world to test those who live on the earth.
2 Peter 2:9 YHVH knows how to deliver the pious out of temptations, and
to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
212
The world does not ‘know’ YHVH and is not obeying His Word. He
wants us to be a special treasure and a nation of priests to Him We are in the
world but we are not to be a part of it. TRUST HIM.
Matthew 5:14 "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be
hidden.
Romans 8:28
‘SIGNS’ in Remez and Drash
My reason for writing this chapter is to consider spiritual fulfillment of

some prophecies. The Jews of the first century were looking for a Messiah
on the order of what has been reserved for the second coming. They were
under Roman occupation and their hope was for deliverance; not seeing their
captivity to sin. They truly thought they were righteous people who were
serving YHVH. Most of them missed the suffering servant who had to come
first! (A lot of people Jew and Christian think they can please the Father
without actually doing the written Torah which we are told is eternal.
213
Let us not be ignorant that the Scriptures are a spiritual manual also; being
lulled into thinking that there are still prophecies that must be fulfilled in the
physical, before Yahshua can return, thus being caught ‘sleeping’ or without
‘oil’.
Psalms 37:30-31
The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of
judgment.
31.The Torah of his Elohim is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
Isaiah 51:7
Hearken unto Me, you that know righteousness, the people in whose heart
is My Torah.
Deuteronomy 6:8-9

Luke 11:34 Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good,
your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body also
is full of darkness.
John 1:4 In Him was life, and that life was the Light of men.
5 The Light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.
Yahshua did not emit light and glow (except at the transfiguration) this
‘light’ is the Word of YHVH that we may ‘see’ the path of ‘The Way’ and
not stumble (Psalm 119:105).
Psalms 119:11
Your Word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against You.
Proverbs 1:8-9
Listen, my son, to your father's instruction and do not forsake your mother's
teaching.
9. They will be a garland to grace your head and a chain to adorn your

2. for they will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity.
3. Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your

Similarly we cannot have open heart surgery to literally write it on our

hearts and words are not a chain to put around your neck.
Proverbs 3:4-6
Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of Elohim and man.
5. Trust in YHVH with all your heart and lean not on your own

Psalms 37:32-33
The wicked lie in wait for the righteous, seeking their very lives;
33. YHVH will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is
judged.
Your hand, your enemies hand or YHVH’s hand, they all are symbolic of
strength or power. The wicked does not literally have me in his hand! So let
YHVH’s Word be your strength.
The Sign of YHVH’s Covenant
This is only one sign of YHVH’s covenant; I will cover the others in
another chapter.
Exodus 13:9
And it shall be for a sign unto you upon your hand, and for a memorial

Strong's Ref. # 226 HEBREW

Romanized 'owth Pronounced oth --mark, miracle, (en-)sign, token.
The signs of YHVH are His ‘mark’, it is the same word used for the mark
put upon Cain in Genesis 4:15. What I am trying to show is the mark of the
beast could also be the sign of the beast and his system of worship! It would
have fulfilled the prophecy, spiritually, already; so there may or may not be
219
a physical future fulfillment with a chip for a cashless society. With the Fed
printing money un-backed by gold or silver our currency is fast becoming
worthless, so the latter happening is still a possibility.
Revelation 13:16-18
And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to
receive a mark (sign) in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17. And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark (sign), or
the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18. Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding count the number of
the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred sixty
and six.
What I am trying to show is, your ‘hand’ being symbolic of strength; in

the buying and selling above of Revelation 3:17 that is related to ‘spiritual
commerce’ of ravenousness wolves in sheep’s clothing, devouring the souls
of men. (Re: the last three words of Revelation 18:13) Scripture has many
physical things like silver, gold, water, bread or oil that are symbolic of
spiritual things. In addition there are other mentions of ‘spiritual commerce’
like the two passages below from Isaiah and John.
Isaiah 55:1-3
Yo, every one that thirsts, come you to the waters, and he that has no
money; come, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money
and without price.
2. Wherefore do you spend money for that which is not bread? And your
labor for that which satisfies not? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat that
which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
3. Incline your ear, and come unto Me: hear, and your soul shall live; and
I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of
David.
John 4:35-37
Say not you, There are yet four months, and then come harvest? Behold, I
say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white
already to harvest.
36. And he that reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit unto life eternal:
that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together.
37. And herein is that saying true, One sows, and another reaps.
220
Below we see the ‘spiritual commerce’ aspect of water and bread.
Proverbs 18:4
The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of
wisdom as a flowing brook.
Isaiah 44:3-4
For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry
ground: I will pour My Spirit upon your seed, and my blessing upon your
offspring:
4. And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water
courses.
Ephesians 5:26 to make her Holy, cleansing her by the washing with water
through The Word,
Isaiah 12:3-4
Therefore with joy shall you draw water out of the wells of salvation.
4. And in that day shall you say, Praise YHVH, call upon His Name,
declare His doings among the people, make mention that His Name is
exalted.
John 4:10, 14
YAHshua answered and said unto her, If You knew the gift of Elohim, and
who it is that says to you, Give me to drink; you would have asked of him,
and he would have given you living water.
14. But whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never
thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water
springing up into everlasting life.
John 7:37-38
In the last day, that great day of the feast, YAHshua stood and cried, saying,
If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38. He that believes on Me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall
flow rivers of living water.
221
John 6:35-36
And YAHshua said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that comes to Me
shall never hunger; and he that believes on Me shall never thirst.
36. But I said unto you, That you also have seen Me, and believe not.
John 6:58, 57, 56, 55

This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did
eat manna, and are dead: he that eats of this bread shall live for ever.
57. As the living Father has sent Me, and I live by the Father: so he that eats
Me, even he shall live by Me.
56. He that eats My flesh, and drinks My blood, dwells in Me, and I in him.
55.For My flesh is meat indeed, and My blood is drink indeed.
His ‘flesh’ is the bread of life, He is the Word of Elohim, the Word of
Elohim is Truth, the True Word of Elohim is the Torah, The Word of
Elohim became flesh and dwelt among us to show us the true precepts of
Torah without the leaven of men.
2 Peter 2:1-3
But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be
false teachers among you, who privately shall bring in damnable heresies,
even denying Yahshua that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift
destruction.
Denying that Yahshua taught Torah as ‘the way’ of Truth is denying

Yahshua!
2. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom ‘The
Way’ of Truth shall be evil spoken of.
3. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make
merchandise of you: Their condemnation has long been hanging over them,
and their destruction has not been sleeping.
2 Peter 2:3
shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you
Revelation 18:11
222
And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man
buys their merchandise any more:
Revelation 18:12-13

fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all citron wood, and all
manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and
of brass, and iron, and marble,
13. And cinnamon, and odors, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine,
and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and
chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
Revelation 18:13
The merchandise of ….. souls of men.
2 Peter 2:3
And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make
merchandise of you.
Ezekiel 8:13-16
He said also unto me, Turn yet again, and you shall see greater
abominations that they do.
14. Then He brought me to the door of the gate of YHVH's house which
was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.
15. Then said He unto me, Have you seen this, O son of man? Turn yet
again and you shall see greater abominations than these.
16. And He brought me into the inner court of YHVH's house, and, behold,
at the door of the temple of YHVH, between the porch and the altar, were
about twenty five men, with their backs toward the temple of YHVH, and
their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.
Sun worship, started by Nimrod, has infiltrated almost all religions that
claim to serve the one true Creator, to one degree or another. Christianity has
much more sun worship mixed with the Truth of the Word of YHVH than
any other. Their ‘sign’ or ‘mark’ is SUNday worship, the first day of the
week; observance of Saturnalia (re-birth of the sun) as the birth of their
saviour and Eastre (Easter) as the time of his resurrection.
Without their mark or sign no one can buy or sell the souls of men. Even
in the USA with Constitutional rights of freedom of religion, break-away
223
religions like the Mormons, Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Seventh Day
Adventist were highly persecuted, until very recent times under the cry of
‘freedom of religion’ when even Satanist were protected.
Jeremiah 23:18
But which of them has stood in the council of YHVH to see or to hear His
Word? Who has listened and heard His Word?
Hosea 14:9
Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall
know them? for the ways of YHVH are right, and the just shall walk in
Romans 8:28
TWISTED
2 Peter 3:16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them

concerning these matters, in which some are hard to
understand, which those who are untaught and unstable
twist to their own destruction, as they do also the
other Scriptures.
James 2:24 You see that by works a man is justified, and not only by faith.
Romans 3:20 Therefore no one will be declared righteous in His sight by

observing the law
Romans 2:13 but the doers of the law shall be justified.
224
Galatians 2:16 because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Galatians 3:10 All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is
written: "Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written
in the Book of the Law."
Romans 7:22 For in my inner being I delight in Elohim's law;
Romans 7:15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not
do, but what I hate I do.
16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good.
24 What a wretched man I am!
OK, let’s sum up what these verses just stated: A man is justified by
works and not by faith only, but by the deeds of the law no flesh shall be
justified, but the doers of the law are justified, yet a man is not justified by
the works of the law however those who are of the law are under a curse but
we are cursed if we don’t keep the law either, so we don’t understand why
we do not do what is good because Elohim’s law is a delight. Oy vey!
This is typical of the confusion caused by not understanding Paul’s

writings, in light of the culture Paul lived in. The problem of it being given
to us in Greek compounds the misunderstanding even more.
First the problem with the Greek language as Paul wrote it. He was
probably literate in Greek but I think he would have fore seen the problem of
not being able to differentiate between The Torah (law) and the ‘oral torah’
(Jewish law). Paul’s writings, in Greek, have predominantly one word for
the term ‘law’ (nomos).
Now enters the cultural aspect; there were two very different laws present.
The Torah is the law of YHVH. Also called ‘law’ was the Jewish Law of the
Pharisee’s. This ‘law’ was the traditions, customs and rulings that were
considered ‘lawful’ and thus binding on all Jews. They call it the oral law
and claim it was given to Moses on Mount Sinai and handed down unbroken
and that they had the authority to add to, or change what they saw fit!
(Which is contrary to a direct Torah command) Further some believed that
salvation was possible by keeping these laws. These people, who believed
this, caused a lot of controversy among those of ‘The Way’ when they
became converts and tried to bring their Pharisaical baggage with them!
225
I think that is, in part, because the Tanak says a righteous man will walk
in Torah and do it and it is the righteous man that can approach YHVH’s
presence. The Pharisee’s considered themselves righteous and rightful
interpreters of Torah. Their rulings were part of an ongoing ‘oral Torah’,
that was in fact, called by them, Torah. (Later they elevated their rulings to
have more weight than the written Torah or even words directly from
YHVH! (Another corruption of a verse, this time of Deuteronomy 30:12).
Avi ben Mordichai’s book on Galatians and Nehemia Gordon’s book on

The Hebrew Yeshua vs. The Greek Jesus are both excellent books that
explains the reasons for the attacks of Yahshua on the Pharisees.
If you will read the Psalms (especially 119) you will see over and over the
Torah of YHVH is a delight, it is His Word which is The Truth, it is a light
for our walk that we may not stumble, it is eternal (FOREVER) and that
YHVH does not, cannot change His Truth. Paul could not possibly be
talking negatively about Torah, but I have no problem seeing it that way
about the ‘Jewish Law”.
Now compare this to Yahshua’s admonition of the Pharisees in Mark 7:
Mark 7:1-13
Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which
came from Jerusalem.
2. And saw some of His disciples eating food with hands that were
"unclean," that is, unwashed.
3. (The Pharisees and all the (observant) Jews do not eat unless they give
their hands a ceremonial washing, holding to the tradition of the elders.
4. When they come from the marketplace they do not eat unless they wash.
And they observe many other traditions, such as the washing of cups,
pitchers and kettles.)
5. So the Pharisees and teachers of the law asked Yahshua, "Why don't
your disciples live according to the tradition of the elders instead of eating
their food with ùnclean' hands?"
6. He replied, "Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites;
as it is written: "`These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts
are far from Me.
7. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by
men.'
226
8. You have let go of the commands of Elohim and are holding on to the
traditions of men."
9. And he said to them: "You have a fine way of setting aside the
commands of Elohim in order to observe your own traditions!
10. For Moses said, `Honor your father and your mother,' and, Ànyone
who curses his father or mother must be put to death.'
11. But you say that if a man says to his father or mother: `Whatever help
you might otherwise have received from me is Corban' (that is, a gift
devoted to Elohim),
12. Then you no longer let him do anything for his father or mother.
13. Thus you nullify the Word of Elohim by your tradition that you have
handed down. And you do many things like that."
This is a very scathing rebuke! Understand these traditions are what they
called the ‘oral torah’ saying that it was handed down from Moses on Mount
Sinai and was intact without any corruption!!!!
When one understands that these traditions and rulings were called ‘oral
Torah’ and thus considered by the Pharisee’s as having the same weight as
the written Torah one can start to understand the cultural implications of
men coming out of rabbinical Judaism still clinging to these laws of the
Pharisees, trying to bring this baggage with them into ‘The Way’. Problems
with these types (read Galatians 2:4, Acts 15; 1,5,10,21, & 24 on the next
page) is where the negative things Paul had to say about the ‘law’ came
from, while the positive things about the law refer to Torah! With this
understanding let’s re-read the original verses quoted earlier inserting
‘Jewish law’ and Torah where it is appropriate:
A man is justified by works (of Torah) and not by faith only, but by the
deeds of the (Jewish) law no flesh shall be justified, but the doers of the law
(Torah) are justified, yet a man is not justified by the works of the
(Jewish)law however those who are of the (Jewish) law are under a curse but
we are cursed if we don’t keep the law (Torah) either, so we don’t
understand why we do not do what is good because Elohim’s law (Torah) is
a delight.
Makes sense this way, doesn’t it?
The verses about not being able to do what I want to do:
227
Romans 7:15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not
do, but what I hate I do.
16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law (Torah)is good.
24 What a wretched man I am!
This probably has to do with the Jewish belief of Yetzer haHara and
Yetzer haTov; the evil inclination and the good inclination, respectively.
From my understanding of this we are all born with both inclinations and
have to overcome the bad by choosing the good. YHVH asks us many times
in Torah to choose life and blessings by obeying and that it is within our
reach.
Deuteronomy 30:11-14 Now what I am commanding you today is not too

difficult for you or beyond your reach.
12 It is not up in heaven, so that you have to ask, "Who will ascend into
heaven to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?"
13 Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you have to ask, "Who will cross the sea
to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?"
14 No, the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so
you may obey it.
Below are a few verses in the New Testament showing the problems with
Pharisaical law. The Pharisees believed they were justified before YHVH
by the keeping of their traditions and that was the only way to achieve
salvation!
-- King James
Galatians 2:4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who
came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Messiah Yahshua,
that they might bring us into bondage. (Their traditions!)
Galatians 2:4 [This matter arose] because some false brothers had infiltrated
our ranks to spy on the freedom we have in Messiah Yahshua and to make
us slaves.
The commentary in my KJV study bible on Galatians 2:4 has a ‘Key-note’

that says “Paul is warning the church in Galatia that there were those
endeavoring to bring the Christians under the law of Moses”. (my
228
emphasis) This is a classic example of “lies inherited from our fathers”! The
Pharisees did not keep the law of Moses (Torah), they kept their oral law!
True the Pharisees said their traditions were based on written Torah but they
had added to it so much as to bring it to naught!
Acts 15:1 Some men came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching
the brothers: "Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by
Moses *, you cannot be saved."
5 Then some of the believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees
stood up and said, "The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to obey
the law of Moses." *
10 Now then, why do you try to test Elohim by putting on the necks of the
disciples a yoke that neither we nor our fathers have been able to bear?
20 Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food
polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled
animals and from blood.
21 For Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times
and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath."
24 Forasmuch as we have heard that certain men who went out from us
have troubled you with words, subverting your souls; to whom we gave no
commandment;
* The Torah does indeed say to become a part of Yisrael all male
members of a family should be circumcised. The problem with the Pharisees
was their tradition lacked the heart felt motive necessary to serve YHVH. If
you were already circumcised, but not by them, you had to undergo a re-
circumcision according to their tradition! This fact is easily verified in the
Talmud.
John 5:46-47
46 If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about Me.
47 But if you believe not his writings, how shall you believe My words?
Also review Matthew 15:1-10 and Mark 7:1-13 above.
When we lean on man’s concepts instead of Torah precepts we veer to

the right or left and soon end up wandering from YHVH’s will for us.
229
For a more comprehensive study of first century Judaism and how it
affected Paul’s writing I highly recommend Avi ben Mordechai’s book on
Galatians available from Millennium7000.com.
The Berean 8/9/08
What Path are you on?
Matthew 7:13-27 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate
and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
14 For narrow is the gate, and straight is the way, that leads unto life, and
few are they that find it.
corrupt: who can know it?
Could your heart believe you are on the right path when in reality you
may not be? Jews, Christians and Muslims all believe they are! They are ‘the
230
many’; even if you consider any one of these three groups, each group has
many sub groups within them that think only they have the right way. Please
don’t think I claim the path I’m on is the only right way. I ‘work out my
salvation every day with fear and trembling’. What I aim for here is to make
others aware that there is a lot of deception in doctrines of men that does not
line up with Scripture. That said, I believe we all need to ‘work out our
salvation every day with fear and trembling’!
I pray in these times of refreshing, as our blindness in part is lifted, that
people who love YHVH will see where their walk has led them and be able
to correct their course. May you have joy in your journey!
15 "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are vicious wolves.

the day of affliction, the Gentiles (goyim in Hebrew which means strangers
to YHVH, or nations who do not ‘know’ Elohim) shall come unto You from
the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies,
vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
16 By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or
figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but the corrupt tree
brings forth evil fruit..
Psalms 1:1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the
wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
2 But his delight is in the Torah of the YHVH, and on His Torah he
meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in
season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
Which bears asking the question, what is good fruit?
18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.
19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into
the fire.
20 Therefore by their fruits you shall know them.
231
21 "Not everyone who says to me, `Master, Master,' will enter the kingdom
of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
The will of the father is to obey Him, with a right heart, producing the
fruit He desires from us.
22 Many will say to Me on that day, `Master, Master, did we not prophesy
in Your Name, and in Your Name drive out demons and perform many
miracles?'
Another question that begs to be answered: What name do we call on and

does it matter? “Oh but He knows my heart” doesn’t cut it according to these
verses, He wants obedience in doing what He says! The chapter on The
Name Above All Names may have some surprises for you.
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me,
you that work lawlessness. (Torah-lessness)
24 Every one therefore that hears these words of Mine, and does them,
shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock:
1 Corinthians 10:3-4 They all ate the same spiritual food

4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock
that accompanied them, and that rock was Messiah.
Matthew 7:25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew
and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation
on the rock.
26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them
into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and
beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
Is the house you are building based on the Rock of Scripture or the sand
of doctrines of men (lies, vanity and things wherein there is no profit)?
Matthew 5:17 Think not that I came to destroy the Torah or the Prophets: I
came not to destroy, but to perfect it.
232
Matthew 5:18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not
the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear
from the Torah until everything is accomplished.
All prophecies have not been fulfilled and the last time I looked the
heavens and the earth where still here!
Luke 16:17 It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the
least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Torah.
The spirit of Eliyahu is here; it is the time of Restoration of all things.

Hopefully you will have ears to hear and eyes to see.
Now we will take an in depth look at what Scripture has to say about ‘the
way’ or path we should walk.
“The Way” or The Path of Righteousness
In Acts 22:14 and 22 Paul talks of “The Way”, the sect of the Believers in
Moshiach Yahshua. I found a total of eight times in Acts the sect is referred
to as The Way.
Is it coincidence that they picked this name for themselves? I think not!
Later in this chapter are over twenty five mentions or ‘witnesses’ of The
Way or Path of YHVH from the Psalms. I think when you are done you too
will be convinced.
Acts 22:4 I persecuted the followers of this Way to their death, arresting
both men and women and throwing them into prison,
233
This was before Paul being knocked to the ground and temporarily
blinded so he could ‘see’ the Truth. Then he too followed The Way.
Acts 24:14 However, I admit that I worship the Elohim of our fathers as a
follower of the Way, which they call a sect, believing all things which are
according to the Torah, and which are written in the prophets;
“believing all things which are according to the Torah” Think about
this in light of Paul’s writings about “you are not under the Law”. What
law? Do you know how many ‘laws’ the Jews had? Read 2 Peter 3:16! How
well do you know “The Scriptures”; remembering there was no New
Testament writings at the time that was written!
YHVH’s Torah is Truth, Light, Eternal, and THE WAY!
The Way we are to walk is the path of righteousness often referred to in
the Psalms, but before we go there let’s finish up on ‘The Way’ in Acts:
Acts 9:2 And asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if
he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he
might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
Acts 16:17 This girl followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, "These men
are servants of the Most High Elohim, who are telling you the Way to be
saved."
Acts 19:8 Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly there for three
months, arguing persuasively about the kingdom of Elohim.
9 But some of them became obstinate; they refused to believe and publicly
maligned the Way. So Paul left them. He took the disciples with him and
had discussions daily in the lecture hall of Tyrannus.
Acts 19:23 And about that time there arose no small stir concerning the
Way.
Acts 18:24 Meanwhile a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came

to Ephesus. He was a learned man, with a thorough knowledge of the
Scriptures.
25 This man had been instructed in The Way of the Master; and being
fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning
Yahshua, knowing only the baptism of John:
234
26 and he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Priscilla and
Aquila heard him, they invited him to their home and explained to him the
Way of Elohim more adequately.
Acts 22:4 I persecuted the followers of this Way to their death, arresting
both men and women and throwing them into prison,
Acts 24:14 However, I admit that I worship the Elohim of our fathers as a
follower of the Way, which they call a sect, believing all things which are
according to the Torah, and which are written in the prophets;
Acts 24:22 Then Felix, who was well acquainted with The Way, adjourned
the proceedings. When Lysias the chief captain shall come down, I will
determine your matter.
You should have a clear understanding, by now, that the early church was
called The Way. The Way of YHVH is the Path to Life and the righteous
man shall live in it; it is often spoke of in the Psalms.
The Way of YHVH is pure when we live by it; it brings joy. We need to
ask YHVH to show, direct, guide and teach us His Torah (instructions) and
His covenant.
If we have a right heart we find His Way is Holy (“Be you Holy as I am
Holy”). In the latter days He will cause (empower) us to ‘know’ Him and no
longer will neighbor teach neighbor because from the least to the greatest all
will ‘know’ Him. (Jeremiah 31:34)
Now let’s go to the Psalms to see how the early church was inspired to
call themselves The Way:
Psalms 119:1 Blessed are the undefiled in The Way, who walk in the Torah
of the YHVH.
Psalms 119:9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By living
according to Your Word.
Psalms 16:11 You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill
me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand.
235
Psalms 119:14 I have rejoiced in The Way of Your testimonies, As much
as in all riches.
Psalms 5:8 Lead me, O YHVH, in Your righteousness because of my

enemies-- make straight Your Way before me.
Psalms 27:11 Teach me Your Way, O YHVH; lead me in a straight path

because of my oppressors.
Psalms 86:11 Teach me Your Way, O YHVH, and I will walk in Your
truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may revere Your Name.
Psalms 119:26 I declared my ways, and You answer me: Teach me Your
statutes.
27 Make me to understand The Way of Your precepts: So shall I meditate
on Your wondrous works.
Psalms 25:9 He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them His
Way.
10 All the paths of YHVH are mercy and truth unto such as keep His
covenant and His testimonies.
Psalms 25:4 Show me Your Ways, O YHVH, teach me Your paths;

5 guide me in Your Truth and teach me, for You are Elohim my Savior, and
my hope is in You all day long.
Psalms 119:35 Direct me in the path of Your commands, for there I find
delight.
Psalms 119:37 Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity, And quicken me
in Your Way.
Psalms 32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in The Way which you shall
go: I will counsel you with My eye upon you.
Psalms 84:5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in You; In whose heart
are the high-ways to Zion.
Psalms 77:13 Your way, O Elohim, is Holy. What elohim is so great as our
Elohim?
236
Psalms 143:8 Cause me to hear Your loving kindness in the morning; For in
You do I trust: Cause me to know The Way wherein I should walk; For I
lift up my soul unto You.
Psalms 50:23 He who sacrifices thank offerings honors Me, and he prepares
the way so that I may show him the salvation of Elohim."
Psalms 67:1 May Elohim be gracious to us and bless us and make His face
shine upon us, Selah
2 That Your Way may be known on earth, Your salvation among all
nations.
Psalms 119:105 Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a Light for my path.
Psalms 119:1 Blessed are the undefiled in The Way, who walk in the Torah
of the YHVH.
3 They also do no iniquity: they walk in His Ways.
5 Oh, that my ways were steadfast in obeying Your decrees!
9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to Your
Word.
Psalms 67:1 May Elohim be gracious to us and bless us and make His face
shine upon us, Selah
2 That Your Way may be known on earth, your salvation among all
nations.
Not all ‘Ways’ that man walk are His Way:
leads to death.
Psalms 1:1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the
wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
Psalms 107:40 He pours out scorn upon nobles, and causes them to wander
in a pathless waste
Psalms 119:29 Remove from me the way of falsehood; And grant me Your
Torah graciously.
31 I hold fast to Your statutes, O YHVH; do not let me be put to shame.
237
32 I will run the way of Your commandments, when you shall broaden my
heart.
Psalms 119:104 Through Your precepts I get understanding: Therefore I

hate every false way.
We see we do not want to be on a path or way that seems right. But

YHVH is faithful and just showing us what is right in His eyes. Don’t lean
on men to teach you, read His Word for yourself with the Ruach Kodesh
as your guide!
Psalms 16:11 You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill
me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand.
Psalms 119:14 I have rejoiced in The Way of Your testimonies, As much

as in all riches.
Psalms 32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall
go: I will counsel you with My eye upon you. (This is a promise)
I relate the Path by which we should walk to the narrow road Yahshua
relates to us in Matthew 7:13-14
Matthew 7:13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and
broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a
few find it.
We have been fed lies inherited from our fathers and at this time of the
Restoration of All Things it is time to get back on the right road! Amein.
Romans 8:28
238
Circumcision
Avraham believed YHVH was who He said He was and would do the
things He promised. Obedience proves our faith; that it is not just a ‘state of
mind’.
So why did Paul say that circumcision didn’t matter? Again you need to
understand the Pharisees position on circumcision. They felt that without
doing it, according to their methods, one could not receive salvation! Their
version of “the custom of Moses” was their own ‘Oral Torah’ which is
continually modified by the rulings of the Rabbi’s.
239
Acts 15:1 Some men came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching
the brothers: "Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by
Moses, you cannot be saved."
Wanting to do the commands of YHVH’s Torah must come from love

for him or you will end up doing dead works. If I had not been
circumcised shortly after birth, I most certainly would have by now in as
much as where my walk is today; and it would be from my heart.
Would someone who truly had a love for YHVH and did the commands
of Torah to show YHVH they wanted to please Him, be called a son of hell?
Because that is exactly what Yahshua called them for their distorted
practices they claimed was from Moses!
Matthew 23:15 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you
hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when
he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are.
If you read Matthew 23:2-3 in most versions Yahshua sounds as if he is

contradicting himself, especially in light of the rest of the chapter. This is
because they were translated from Greek rather than Hebrew; the original
language of that gospel narrative. The difference between ‘he says’ and
‘they say’ in Hebrew is one letter, a ‘yod’, which is the tiniest letter in
Hebrew! In the Hebrew version it doesn’t make Yahshua look like he is
contradicting himself and has symmetry with the rest of the chapter. I
recommend Nehemia Gordon’s book “The Hebrew Yeshua vs. The Greek
Jesus for an in depth look at this subject as well as a very informative tale of
why he left Orthodox Judaism. Below is the Hebrew version of Matthew
23:1-3.
Matthew 23:1-3
Then Yahshua said to the crowds and to his disciples:
2. "The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat.
3. So you must obey him and do everything he tells you. But do not do
what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.
We know from Luke 4:16 and Acts 15:21 that the Scriptures were still
read aloud on the Sabbath.
240
“for they do not practice what they preach.” From this I get that they
were not bold enough yet, to declare their traditions superceded written
Torah. However that time was not far off.
Matthew 15:1-9 and Mark 1:1-13 verify that there was something very
wrong with what the Pharisee’s taught.
I am going to go over the entire chapter of Matthew 23 to further show

you how far off the Pharisee’s were, in Yahshua’s own words. He references
them over sixty times in this short discourse, labeling them hypocrites and
calling them blind. Do you remember the section in ‘The Re-gathering’
about ‘blindness’? It makes me wonder if their blindness was from their own
stubbornness or from above? Re: “Blinded for a season for a reason”.
Regardless where it is from; be it Rabbi’s, Priests, Pastors or Teachers, if
they are blind both they and their followers will ‘fall in a ditch’ and not be
on the road they need to be on!
The Word of Truth speaks for itself, let the Ruach Kodesh be your guide.
Matthew 23:1-39
Then Yahshua said to the crowds and to his disciples:
2. "The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat.
3. So you must obey him and do everything he tells you. But do not do
what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.
4. They tie up heavy loads and put them on men's shoulders, but they
themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
5. "Everything they do is done for men to see: They make their
phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long;
6. They love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in
the synagogues;
7. They love to be greeted in the marketplaces and to have men call them
`Rabbi.'
8. "But you are not to be called `Rabbi,' for you have only one Master
and you are all brothers.
How many Messianic leaders today ignore this command of Yahshua’s?

The Hebrew root word for Rabbi is rav or rab meaning great or abundant,
adding the ‘bi’ makes it great one or abundant one. So these ‘great ones’ had
followers; students who usually called them their rabbi and who taught them
his insights into Scripture. This is how rabbi became synonymous with
teacher. If you check the Greek words for Rabbi and master (sometimes
241
rendered teacher) in verse eight, father in verse nine and teacher (sometimes
rendered as master or leader) in verse ten you will find each is a different
word which should bring you to the conclusion that in the original Hebrew
there were four distinctly different words used.
9. And do not call anyone on earth `father,' for you have one Father, and He
is in heaven.
10. Nor are you to be called `teacher,' for you have one Teacher, the
Moshiach.
11. The greatest among you will be your servant.
12. For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles
himself will be exalted.
13. "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You
shut the kingdom of heaven in men's faces. You yourselves do not enter,
nor will you let those enter who are trying to.
Although they thought themselves pious and righteous because of the way
they walked (conducted themselves) their path was not the right way.
travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one,
you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are.
16. "Woe to you, blind guides! You say, Ìf anyone swears by the temple,
it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound
by his oath.'
17. You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes
the gold sacred?
18. You also say, Ìf anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but if
anyone swears by the gift on it, he is bound by his oath.'
19. You blind men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes the
gift sacred?
20. Therefore, he who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on
it.
21. And he who swears by the temple swears by it and by the One who
dwells in it.
22. And he who swears by heaven swears by Elohim's throne and by the
One who sits on it.
give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected
242
the more important matters of the law--justice, mercy and faithfulness.
You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.
24. You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel.

self-indulgence.
26. Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the
outside also will be clean.
are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the
inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean.
28. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but
on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.

30. And you say, Ìf we had lived in the days of our forefathers, we would
not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.'
31. So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those
who murdered the prophets.
32. Fill up, then, the measure of the sin of your forefathers!
33. "You serpents! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being
condemned to hell?
34. Therefore I am sending you prophets and wise men and teachers. Some
of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues
and pursue from town to town.
35. And so upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed
on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of
Berekiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.
36. I tell you the truth, all this will come upon this generation.
37. "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those
sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a
hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing.
38. Look, your house is left to you desolate.
39. For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, `Blessed is He
who comes in the name of YHVH.' " (Baruch haba baShem YHVH).
Circumcision is one of the signs of YHVH’s covenant. You don’t do it

because some says you must, to be saved. You do it because you love Him!
Because He says it is a Sign of His Covenant!
243
Romans 8:28
HEART
So many say they have a HEART for YHVH and truly think they do.
But their actions do not bear witness to their words. The purpose of this
chapter is to be aware of what Scripture says the HEART can be and to have
you commune with your HEART, meditate on His Truth and judge your
own actions and their motives. Do you do it because you truly love Him?
Is Corrupt/deceives
Jeremiah 17:9 The HEART is deceitful above all things, and it is

exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?
244
Proverbs 20:9 Who can say, "I have kept my HEART pure; I am clean and
without sin"?
Genesis 6:5 YHVH saw how great man's wickedness on the earth had
become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his HEART was only
evil all the time.
Psalms 12:2 They speak falsehood every one with his neighbor: With
flattering lip, and with a double HEART, do they speak.
Deuteronomy 29:19 and it come to pass, when he hears the words of this
curse, that he bless himself in his HEART, saying, I shall have peace,
though I walk in the stubbornness of my HEART, to add drunkenness to
thirst.
Deuteronomy 11:16 Take heed to yourselves, lest your HEART be

deceived, and you turn aside, and serve other elohim, and worship them;
Deuteronomy 8:14 then your HEART will become proud and you will
forget YHVH your Elohim, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of
slavery.
Leviticus 19:17 "`Do not hate your brother in your HEART. Rebuke your
neighbor frankly so you will not share in his guilt.
18 "`Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but
love your neighbor as yourself. I am YHVH.
Deuteronomy 4:9 Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you
do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your
HEART as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their
children after them. (If you’re teaching them, they’re on your mind being
talked about and not as likely ‘to slip from your HEART’.
Matthew 15:17 "Don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the
stomach and then out of the body?
18 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the HEART, and
these make a man ‘unclean’.
Genesis 6:6 YHVH was grieved that He had made man on the earth, and
His HEART was filled with pain.
245
YHVH CAN INFLUENCE Your Heart
For good or bad!
For Good
Psalms 33:11 But the plans of YHVH stand firm forever, the purposes of
His HEART through all generations. (He does not change! Malachi 3:6)
Psalms 33:14 From the place of His habitation He looks forth Upon all the
inhabitants of the earth,
15 He who forms the HEARTS of all, who considers everything they do.
Psalms 27:14 Wait upon YHVH: be of good courage, and He shall

strengthen your HEART: I say, wait upon YHVH. (This is not patiently
waiting, as we will see shortly, but rather waiting upon as a servant or waiter
at a restaurant).
Exodus 35:34 And He has put in his HEART that he may teach, both he,
and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
1 Samuel 10:7 Once these signs are fulfilled, do whatever your hand finds
to do, for Elohim is with you.
9 And it was so, that, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel,
Elohim gave him another HEART: and all those signs came to pass that
day.
For Bad
Deuteronomy 28:65 And among these nations shall you find no ease, and
there shall be no rest for the sole of your foot: but YHVH will give you
there a trembling HEART, and failing of eyes, and pining of soul;
Deuteronomy 2:30 But Sihon king of Heshbon refused to let us pass

through. For YHVH your Elohim had made his spirit stubborn and his
HEART obstinate in order to give him into your hands, as He has now
done.
246
Exodus 10:1 Then YHVH said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh, for I have
hardened his HEART and the HEARTS of his officials so that I may
perform these miraculous signs of Mine among them
2 that you may tell your children and grandchildren how I dealt harshly with
the Egyptians and how I performed My signs among them, and that you may
know that I am YHVH."
Deuteronomy 15:7 If there is a poor man among your brothers in any of the
towns of the land that YHVH your Elohim is giving you, do not be
hardHEARTed or tightfisted toward your poor brother.
9 Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought: "The seventh year, the year
for canceling debts, is near," so that you do not show ill will toward your
needy brother and give him nothing. He may then appeal to YHVH against
you, and you will be found guilty of sin.
Deuteronomy 29:4 Yet YHVH has not given you a HEART to perceive,
and eyes to see, and ears to hear, unto this day.
Can we overcome? Yes by Obeying with ALL Your HEART!
Deuteronomy 6:5 Love YHVH your Elohim with all your HEART and with
all your soul and with all your strength.

HEARTS.

which Moses the servant of YHVH commanded you, to love YHVH your
Elohim, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commandments, and
to cleave unto Him, and to serve Him with all your HEART and with all
your soul.
Deuteronomy 11:18 Therefore shall you lay up these my words in your
HEART and in your soul; and you shall bind them for a sign upon your
hand, and they shall be for foremost between your eyes.
Deuteronomy 11:18 Fix these words of Mine in your HEARTS and minds;
tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.
247

with all your soul.

of you but to fear YHVH your Elohim, to walk in all His ways, to love Him,
to serve YHVH your Elohim with all your HEART and with all your soul,
Numbers 15:39 and it shall be unto you for a tzitzit, that you may look upon
it, and remember all the commandments of YHVH, and do them; and that
you follow not after your own HEART and your own eyes, after which you
use to play the harlot;
40 that you may remember and do all My commandments, and be Holy
unto your Elohim.
Deuteronomy 30:10 If you shall hearken unto the voice of YHVH your
Elohim, to keep His commandments and His statutes which are written in
this book of the Torah, and if you turn unto YHVH your Elohim with all
your HEART, and with all your soul.
11 Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or
beyond your reach.
14 No, the Word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your HEART
so you may obey it.
Commune with your HEART
Psalms 4:3 But know that YHVH has set apart him that is pious for
Himself: YHVH will hear when I call unto Him.
4 Stand in awe, and sin not: Commune with your own HEART upon your
bed, and be still. Selah
Psalms 51:10 Create in me a clean HEART, O Elohim; And renew a right

spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from Your presence; And take not Your Holy Spirit
from me.
248
12 Restore unto me the joy of Your salvation; And uphold me with a
willing Spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors Your ways; And sinners shall be
converted unto You.
Psalms 19:8 The precepts of YHVH are right, giving joy to the HEART.
The commands of YHVH are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my HEART be
pleasing in your sight, O YHVH, my Rock and my Redeemer.
Please know that obedience from love shows a right HEART.
Psalms 119:11 I have hidden your word in my HEART that I might not
sin against you.
Psalms 19:8 The precepts of YHVH are upright, giving joy to the HEART.
The commands of YHVH are radiant, giving light to the eyes
Psalms 40:10 I do not hide your righteousness in my HEART; I speak of

your faithfulness and salvation. I do not conceal Your Love and Your Truth
from the great assembly.
Psalms 37:30 The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue
talks of judgment.
31 The Torah of his Elohim is in his HEART; his feet do not slip.

spirit within me.

converted unto You.

Holy place?
4 He who has clean hands and a pure HEART, who does not lift up his soul
to an idol or swear by what is false.
Psalms 19:8 The precepts of YHVH are righteous, giving joy to the
HEART. The commands of YHVH are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
Psalms 27:8 When You said, Seek My face; my HEART said unto You,
Your face, YHVH, will I seek.
Psalms 27:14 Wait upon YHVH: be of good courage, and He shall

strengthen your HEART: I say, wait upon YHVH.
This is one of my favorite verses so I’d like to relate why. The Hebrew
word qavah (pronounced kaw-vah) is translated wait upon. Qavah means to
bind together, perhaps by twisting.
In my early walk, I would have one of my Sunday school students braid
another’s hair explaining to them to imagine that one of the three parts was
them, another was Yahshua (The Word incarnate) and the third the Ruach
Kodesh (The Spirit to guide us and empower us to do what the Word tells
us). When it was finished I asked them which was which. This, I’d explain,
this is was how we are to be bound together with YHVH, as His servant, to
be as close as we can to know His will. We are to hide His Word in our
HEARTS so we do not sin against Him, because when we sin, it is against
Him and Him alone. I think when we truly have a HEART for Him this is
how close we will want to be.
Psalms 37:9 For evil-doers shall be cut off; But those that ‘wait upon’
YHVH, they shall inherit the land. (another qavah)
Psalms 123:2 As the eyes of servant look to the hand of their master, as the
eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to YHVH
our Elohim, till He favors us.
Psalms 26:1 Judge me, O YHVH, for I have walked in my integrity: I have
trusted also in YHVH without wavering.
2 Test me, O YHVH, and try me, examine my HEART and my mind;
250
3 for Your love is ever before me, and I walk continually in Your Truth.
4 I do not sit with deceitful men, nor do I consort with hypocrites;
5 I hate the assembly of evil-doers, And will not sit with the wicked.
6 I wash my hands in innocence, and go about Your altar, O YHVH,
7 proclaiming aloud with the voice of thanksgiving, and telling of all Your
wonderful deeds.
8 O YHVH, I love the habitation of Your house, And the place where Your
glory dwells.
9 Do not take away my soul along with sinners, my life with bloodthirsty
men,
10 in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes.
11 But as for me, I will walk in my integrity: Redeem me, and be merciful
unto me.
12 My feet stand on level ground; in the great assembly I will praise
YHVH.
OK, lets get back to the HEART, in the next verses we will see YHVH
wants a willing HEART and all of it.
Exodus 25:2 "Tell the Israelites to bring Me an offering. You are to receive
the offering for Me from each man whose HEART prompts him to give.
Exodus 35:5 Take from among you an offering unto YHVH: whosoever is
of a willing HEART, let him bring it, an offering of YHVH; gold, and silver,
and brass
Deuteronomy 30:10 If you shall hearken unto the voice of YHVH your
Elohim, to keep His commandments and His statutes which are written in
this book of the Torah, and if you turn unto YHVH your Elohim with all
your HEART, and with all your soul.
11 What I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond
your reach.
14 No, the Word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your HEART
so you may obey it.
1 Samuel 12:19 The people all said to Samuel, "Pray to YHVH your Elohim
for your servants so that we will not die, for we have added to all our other
sins the evil of asking for a king."
20 "Do not be afraid," Samuel replied. "You have done all this evil; yet do
not turn away from YHVH, but serve YHVH with all your HEART.
251
21 and turn not aside; for then would you go after vain things which cannot
profit nor deliver, for they are vain.
22 For YHVH will not forsake His people for His great Name's sake:
because it has pleased YHVH to make you His people.
23 As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against YHVH by failing to
pray for you. And I will teach you the way that is good and right.
24 But be sure to revere YHVH and serve Him faithfully with all your
HEART; consider what great things He has done for you.
He Tests Us to Know Our HEART
Deuteronomy 8:2 Remember how YHVH your Elohim led you all the way
in the desert these forty years, to humble you and to test you in order to
know what was in your HEART, whether or not you would keep His
commands.
Deuteronomy 8:5 Know then in your HEART that as a man disciplines his
son, so YHVH your Elohim disciplines you.
Deuteronomy 13:1 If a prophet, or one who foretells by dreams, appears

among you and announces to you a miraculous sign or wonder,
2 and if the sign or wonder of which he has spoken takes place, and he says,
"Let us follow other elohim" (elohim you have not known) "and let us
worship them,"
3 you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. YHVH your
Elohim is testing you to find out whether you love Him with all your
HEART and with all your soul.
Psalms 26:2 Test me, O YHVH, and try me, examine my HEART and my
mind;
1 Samuel 16:7 But YHVH said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance
or his height, for I have rejected him. YHVH does not look at the things man
looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but YHVH looks at the
HEART."
Psalms 44:20 If we had forgotten the name of our Elohim or spread out
our hands to a foreign elohim,
21 Will not Elohim search this out? For He knows the secrets of the
HEART.
252
YHVH will look at our HEARTS, examines them because He wants us to
have willing HEARTS (to choose Him, as He chose us) and He wants all of
our HEART. And there is a reason for this! It is a prerequisite, along with
confession, humbleness and repentance, for the re-gathering! Then He will
circumcise our HEARTS and give us His spirit to empower us to walk in His
Torah. Sin blinds us and causes our HEARTS to stray from Him.
Psalms 40:12 For troubles without number surround me; my sins have
overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head,
and my HEART fails within me.
Leviticus 26:40 And they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of
their fathers, in their trespass which they trespassed against Me, and also
that, because they walked contrary unto Me,
41 I also walked contrary unto them, and brought them into the land of their
enemies: if then their uncircumcised HEART be humbled, and they then
accept of the punishment of their iniquity;
42 Then will I remember My covenant with Jacob; and also My covenant
with Isaac, and also My covenant with Avraham will I remember; and I will
remember the land.
Deuteronomy 30:1 When all these blessings and curses I have set before
you come upon you and you take them to HEART wherever YHVH your
Elohim disperses you among the nations,
2 and when you and your children return to YHVH your Elohim and obey
Him with all your HEART and with all your soul according to everything I
command you today,
3 then YHVH your Elohim will restore your fortunes and have compassion
on you and gather you again from all the nations where He scattered you.
4 Even if you have been banished to the most distant land under the
heavens, from there YHVH your Elohim will gather you and bring you
back.
5 He will bring you to the land that belonged to your fathers, and you
will take possession of it. He will make you more prosperous and numerous
than your fathers.
6 YHVH your Elohim will circumcise your HEARTS and the HEARTS of
your descendants, so that you may love Him with all your HEART and with
all your soul, and live.
253
Joshua 24:23 "Now then," said Joshua, "throw away the strange elohim that
are among you and yield your HEARTS to YHVH, the Elohim of Israel."
1 Samuel 7:3 And Samuel said to the whole house of Israel, "If you are
returning to YHVH with all your HEARTS, then rid yourselves of the
foreign elohim and the Ashtoreths and commit yourselves to YHVH and
serve Him only, and He will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines."
Jeremiah 32:37-41
Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, where I have driven them
in My anger, and in My fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again
unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:.
38. And they shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim:
39. And I will give them one HEART, and one way, that they may revere
Me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:
40. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not
turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put My fear in their
HEARTS, that they shall not depart from Me.
41. Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in
this land assuredly with My whole HEART and with My whole Soul.
Ezekiel 36:24-37
countries, and will bring you into your own land.
26. A NEW HEART also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put
within you: and I will take away the stony HEART out of your flesh, and I
will give you a HEART of flesh.
Psalm 19:7-14
The Torah of YHVH is perfect, bringing back the soul;

The witness of YHVH is trustworthy, making wise the simple;
254
8 The orders of YHVH are straight, rejoicing the HEART;
The command of YHVH is clear, enlightening the eyes;
9 The fear of YHVH is clean, standing forever;
The right-rulings of YHVH are true, They are righteous
altogether,
10 More desirable than gold, Than much fine gold; And
sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
11 Also, Your servant is warned by them, In guarding them
there is great reward.
12 Who discerns mistakes? Declare me innocent from those
that
are secret,
13 Also keep Your servant back from presumptuous ones,
Do not let them rule over me. Then shall I be perfect, and
innocent of great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my
HEART Be pleasing before You, O YHVH, my rock and my
redeemer.
Psalm 51:10-13
10 Create in me a clean HEART, O Elohim, And renew a
steadfast spirit within me.
11 Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not
take Your Set-apart Spirit from me.
12 Restore to me the joy of Your deliverance, And uphold
me, Noble Spirit!
13 Let me teach transgressors Your ways, So that
sinners turn back to You.
Psalm 20:1-4
YHVH does answer you in the day of distress! The Name of
the Elohim of Yacov does set you on high!
2 He does send you help from the set-apart place, And does
uphold you from Tsiyon!
3 He does remember all your offerings, And does accept
your burnt offering! Selah.
4 He does give you according to your HEART, And fills all
your plans!
255
Psalm 22:27
27 Let all the ends of the earth Remember and turn to YHVH,
And all clans of the nations Bow themselves before You.
Deuteronomy 10:12 And now, O Israel, what does YHVH your Elohim ask
of you but to fear YHVH your Elohim, to walk in all His ways, to love Him,
to serve YHVH your Elohim with all your HEART and with all your soul
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Elohim, and keep his
Romans 8:28
Elohim, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
HOLY or SET-APART
Leviticus 11:44 I am YHVH your Elohim; consecrate yourselves and be

Holy (set-apart), because I am Holy (set-apart). Do not make yourselves
unclean by any creature that moves about on the ground.
45. I am YHVH who brought you up out of Egypt to be your Elohim;
therefore be Holy (set-apart), because I am Holy (set-apart).
256
Qadowsh is the Hebrew word translated as set-apart or holy, it means
sacred, and the definition of sacred is dedicated or set-apart. YHVH is
Qadowsh and wants us to be also. We are not of the world, we are a special
treasure and a nation of priests to Him. Certain things of the world are not
for us. We are not to approach Him when we are in an unholy state!
Exodus 3:5 "Do not come any closer," Elohim said. "Take off your sandals,
for the place where you are standing is HOLY ground."
Exodus 15:13 "In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have
redeemed. In Your strength You will guide them to Your HOLY dwelling.
Exodus 12:16 And in the first day there shall be to you a HOLY
convocation, and in the seventh day a HOLY convocation; no manner of
work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only
may be done by you.
Exodus 19:5 Now if you obey Me fully and keep My covenant, then out
of all nations you will be My treasured possession. Although the whole
earth is Mine,
6 you will be for Me a kingdom of priests and a HOLY nation.' These
are the words you are to speak to the Yisraelites."
Exodus 20:8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it HOLY.
Exodus 22:31 "You are to be My HOLY people. So do not eat the meat of
an animal torn by wild beasts; throw it to the dogs.
Exodus 26:33 Hang the curtain from the clasps and place the ark of the
Testimony behind the curtain. The curtain will separate the HOLY Place
from the Most HOLY Place.
Exodus 28:2 And you shall make HOLY garments for Aaron your brother,
for glory and for beauty.
4 And these are the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, and an
ephod, and a robe, and a coat of woven tunic, a turban, and a sash: and they
shall make HOLY garments for Aaron your brother, and his sons, that he
may minister unto me in the priest's office.
257
35 Aaron must wear it when he ministers. The sound of the bells will be
heard when he enters the HOLY Place before YHVH and when he comes
out, so that he will not die.
Exodus 29:21 And you shall take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of
the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and
upon his sons, and upon the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be
HOLY, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
33 And they shall eat those things wherewith atonement was made, to
consecrate and to sanctify them: but a stranger shall not eat thereof, because
they are HOLY.
37 Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and sanctify it: and
the altar shall be most HOLY; whatsoever touches the altar shall be
HOLY.
Exodus 30:10 And Aaron shall make atonement upon the horns of it once in
the year; with the blood of the sin-offering of atonement once in the year
shall he make atonement for it throughout your generations: it is most
HOLY unto YHVH.
25 And you shall make it a HOLY anointing oil, a perfume compounded
after the art of the perfumer: it shall be a HOLY anointing oil.
29 And you shall sanctify them, that they may be most HOLY: whatsoever
touches them shall be HOLY.
31 Say to the Yisraelites, `This is to be my sacred anointing oil for the
generations to come.
32 Upon the flesh of man shall it not be poured, neither shall you make any
like it, according to the composition thereof: it is HOLY, and it shall be
HOLY unto you.
35 and you shall make of it incense, a perfume after the art of the perfumer,
seasoned with salt, pure and HOLY:
36 and you shall beat some of it very small, and put of it before the
testimony in the tent of meeting, where I will meet with you: it shall be unto
you most HOLY.
37 And the incense which you shall make, according to the composition
thereof you shall not make for yourselves: it shall be unto you HOLY for
YHVH.
By now you should realize ‘HOLY” means dedicated or set-apart to

YHVH and these things are not to be profaned or considered common.
Besides ‘things’ certain time(s) are to be HOLY.
258
Exodus 31:14 You shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is HOLY unto
you: every one that profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever
does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Exodus 35:2 Six days shall work be done; but on the seventh day there shall
be to you a HOLY day, a Sabbath of solemn rest to YHVH: whosoever
does any work therein shall be put to death.
Exodus 39:30 And they made the plate of the HOLY crown of pure gold,
and wrote upon it a writing, like the engravings of a signet, HOLY TO
YHVH.
Exodus 40:9 And you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the
tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shall hallow it, and all the furniture
thereof: and it shall be HOLY.
10 And you shall anoint the altar of burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and
sanctify the altar: and the altar shall be most HOLY.
Leviticus 2:3 and that which is left of the meal-offering shall be Aaron's and
his sons': it is a thing most HOLY of the offerings of YHVH made by fire.
Leviticus 5:15 If any one commit a trespass, and sin unwittingly, in the
HOLY things of YHVH; then he shall bring his trespass-offering unto
YHVH, a ram without blemish out of the flock, according to your estimation
in silver by shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass-offering:
16 and he shall make restitution for that which he has done amiss in the
HOLY thing, and shall add the fifth part thereto, and give it unto the priest;
and the priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass-
offering, and he shall be forgiven.
Leviticus 6:16 And that which is left thereof shall Aaron and his sons eat: it
shall be eaten without leaven in a HOLY place; in the court of the tent of
meeting they shall eat it.

offerings made by fire; it is most HOLY, as the sin-offering, and as the
trespass-offering.

ever throughout your generations, from the offerings of YHVH made by
fire: whosoever touches them shall be HOLY.

had been burned up, he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron's
remaining sons, and asked,
17 "Why didn't you eat the sin offering in the sanctuary area? It is most
HOLY; it was given to you to take away the guilt of the community by
making atonement for them before YHVH.
18 Since its blood was not taken into the HOLY Place, you should have
eaten the goat in the sanctuary area, as I commanded."

manner of trees for food, then you shall count the fruit thereof as their

generations, that approaches unto the HOLY things, which the children of
Yisrael hallow unto YHVH, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul
shall be cut off from before Me: I am YHVH.
6 the soul that touches any such shall be unclean until the even, and shall
not eat of the HOLY things, unless he bathe his flesh in water.
7 And when the sun is down, he shall be clean; and afterward he shall eat of
the HOLY things, because it is his bread.

care of the most HOLY things.

Elohim: YHVH your Elohim has chosen you to be a people for His own

and in my mind that I may be Holy as He is Holy.

salvation: my Elohim will hear me.
264

in darkness, YHVH shall be a Light unto me.
9. I will bear the indignation of YHVH, because I have sinned against Him,
until He plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: He will bring me
forth to The Light, and I shall behold His Righteousness.
John 1:4-9
In Him was life; and the life was the Light of men.
5. And the Light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

7. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men
through him might believe.
8. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9. That was the true Light, which Lights every man that comes into the
world.
Micah 7:15-20
According to the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt will I show
unto him marvelous things.
16. The nations shall see and be deprived of all their power: they shall lay
their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
17. They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes
like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of YHVH our Elohim, and shall
fear because of you.
18. Who is an Elohim like unto You, that pardons iniquity, and passes by
the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He retains not His anger
for ever, because He delights in mercy.
19. He will turn again, He will have compassion upon us; He will subdue
our iniquities; and You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20. You will perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham,
which You have sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.
The following prophecies written by Haakkuk was directed at Judah

before the Babylonian captivity, I include it here to 1.) remind us of
YHVH’s Judgment and 2.) because YHVH sometimes has double
fulfillments of some prophecies.
Habakkuk 1:4-12
265
Therefore the Torah has become helpless, and justice does not go forth; for
the wicked does surround the righteous; therefore justice goes forth
perverted.
5. Behold you among the nations, and look, and wonder marvelously; for I
am working a work in your days, which you will not believe though it be
told you.
6. For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, that march
through the breadth of the earth, to possess dwelling-places that are not
theirs.
7. They are terrible and dreadful; their judgment and their dignity proceed
from themselves.
8. Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are fiercer than the
evening wolves; and their horsemen press proudly on: yes, their horsemen
come from far; they fly as an eagle that hastens to devour.
9. They come all of them for violence; the set of their faces is forwards;
and they gather captives as the sand.
10. Yea, he scoffs at kings, and princes are a derision unto him; he derides
every stronghold; for he heaps up dust, and takes it.
11. Then shall he sweep by as a wind, and shall pass over, and be guilty,
even he whose might is his Elohim.
12. Are not You from everlasting, O YHVH my Elohim, my Holy One?
We shall not die. O YHVH, You have ordained him for judgment; and You,
O Rock, have established him for correction.
Joel chapter two has a parallel prophecy that goes a bit further with a
promise of an awesome ending.
Joel 2:2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick
darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and
strong; there has not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it,
even to the years of many generations.
3 Before them fire devours, behind them a flame blazes. Before them the
land is like the garden of Eden, behind them, a desert waste-- nothing
escapes them.
4 They have the appearance of horses; they gallop along like cavalry.
5 With a noise like that of chariots they leap over the mountaintops, like a
crackling fire consuming stubble, as a mighty army set in battle array.
6 At the sight of them, nations are in anguish; every face turns pale.
7 They run like mighty men; they climb the wall like men of war; and they
march every one on his ways, and they break not their ranks.
266
8 Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and
when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded.
9 They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they
shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a
thief.
10 Before them the earth shakes, the sky trembles, the sun and moon are
darkened, and the stars no longer shine.
Joel 2:11 YHVH thunders at the head of his army; His forces are beyond
number, and mighty are those who obey His commands. The day of
YHVH is great; it is dreadful. Who can endure it?
12 Èven now,` declares the LORD, `return to me with all your heart, with
fasting and weeping and mourning.
13 Tear your heart and not your garments. Return to YHVH your Elohim,
for He is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love,
and He relents from punishing evil.
14 Who knows? He may turn and have pity and leave behind a blessing--
grain offerings and drink offerings for YHVH your Elohim.
15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, declare a Holy fast, call a sacred assembly.
17 Let the priests, who minister before YHVH, weep between the temple
porch and the altar. Let them say, `Spare Your people, O YHVH. Do not
make Your inheritance an object of scorn, a byword among the nations. Why
should they say among the peoples, `Where is their Elohim?'`
18 Then YHVH will be jealous for His land and take pity on His people.
19 YHVH will reply to them: Ì am sending you grain, new wine and oil,
enough to satisfy you fully; never again will I make you an object of scorn
to the nations.
20 Ì will drive the northern army far from you, pushing it into a parched
and barren land, with its front columns going into the eastern sea and those
in the rear into the western sea. And its stench will go up; its smell will rise.`
Surely He has done great things.
21 Be not afraid, O land; be glad and rejoice. Surely YHVH has done great
things.
27 Then you will know that I am in Yisrael, that I am YHVH your Elohim,
and that there is no other; never again will My people be put to shame.
28 Ànd afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons
and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young
men will see visions.
267
32 And everyone who calls on the name of YHVH will be saved; for on
Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be deliverance, as YHVH has said,
among the survivors whom YHVH calls.
Leviticus 26:41-42
And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them
into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled,
and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
42. Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant
with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will
remember the land.
Zechariah 4:6
Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, says YHVH of hosts.
Romans 8:28
