Shabbat Shalom Loved One!

Last week we studied about giving and acceptable gifts to YHWH. It appears from these verses that YHWH accepts gifts based on the position and attitude of willingness to give. That agrees with the Renewed Covenant Scripture: (2Co 9:6) now this I say, he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. (2Co 9:7) Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for YHWH loves a cheerful giver. Based on the following verse, I believe He also expects it to cost you something (sacrifice)! (2Sa 24:23) All these things did Araunah, as a king, give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, may YHWH your Elohim accept you. (2Sa 24:24) And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of you at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto YHWH my Elohim of that which does cost me anything. So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. (Comment: That may rule out Lotto winnings etc) (Exo 25:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying (Exo 25:1) and יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Exo 25:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, that they take up a contribution for Me. From everyone whose heart moves him you shall take up my contribution. (Exo 25:3) “And this is the contribution which you take up from them: gold, and silver, and bronze, (Exo 25:4) and blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, (Exo 25:5) and rams’ skins dyed red, and fine leather, and acacia wood, (Exo 25:6) oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense, (Exo 25:7) shoham stones, and stones to be set in the shoulder garment and in the breastplate. (Exo 25:8) “And they shall make me a Set-apart Place, and I shall dwell in their midst. (Exo 25:9) “According to all that I show you – the pattern of the Dwelling Place and the pattern of all its furnishings – make it exactly so.

Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Tetzave “You shall command”

Exodus 27:20- 30:10; Ezekiel 43:10-27;

Hebrews 13:10-17; 1Samuel Chapters 13, 14, and 15

(Exo 27:20) “And you, you are to command the children of Yisra’ĕl to bring you clear oil of pressed olives for the light, to cause the lamp to burn continually. (Exo 27:21) “In the Tent of Meeting, outside the veil which is before the Witness, Aharon and his sons are to tend it from evening until morning before יהוה – a law forever to their generations, from the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Exo 28:1) “And you, bring near Aharon your brother and his sons with him, from among the children of Yisra’ĕl, for serving as priest to me: Aharon, Naḏaḇ and Aḇihu, Elʽazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aharon. (Exo 28:2) “And you shall make set-apart garments for Aharon your brother, for esteem and for comeliness. (Exo 28:3) “And you speak to all the wise of heart, which I have filled with a spirit of wisdom, and they shall make the garments of Aharon, to set him apart, for him to serve as priest to me. (Exo 28:4) “And these are the garments which they make: a breastplate, a shoulder garment, a robe, an embroidered long shirt, a turban, and a girdle. And they shall make set-apart garments for Aharon your brother and his sons, for him to serve as priest to me. (Exo 28:5) “And they shall take the gold, and the blue and the purple and the scarlet material, and the fine linen, (Exo 28:6) and shall make the shoulder garment of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen, the work of a skilled workman. (Exo 28:7) “It is to have two shoulder pieces joined at its two edges, and so it is joined together. (Exo 28:8) “And the embroidered band of the shoulder garment, which is on it, is of the same workmanship, made of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen. (Exo 28:9) “And you shall take two shoham stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Yisra’ĕl, (Exo 28:10) six of their names on one stone, and the remaining six names on the other stone, according to their birth. (Exo 28:11) “With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, engrave the two stones with the names of the sons of Yisra’ĕl. Set them in settings of gold. (Exo 28:12) “And you shall put the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the shoulder garment as stones of remembrance for the sons of Yisra’ĕl. And Aharon shall bear their names before יהוה on his two shoulders, for a remembrance.

(Exo 28:13) “And you shall make settings of gold, (Exo 28:14) and two chains of clean gold like braided cords, and fasten the braided chains to the settings.

The stones here are laser quality stones. I have mentioned this for years but I will include a short look at what these stones are capable of for “right ruling” as YHWH declares. Let your prayers and imagination run freely as we think together. I would expect the Urim and Thummin would at the least light up for different decisions given the High Priest and most likely even do holograms and various colors and words>

For other uses, see Laser (disambiguation).

Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (LASER or laser) is a mechanism for emitting electromagnetic radiation, typically light or visible light, via the process of stimulated emission. The emitted laser light is (usually) a spatially coherent, narrow low-divergence beam, that can be manipulated with lenses. In laser technology, "coherent light" denotes a light source that produces (emits) light of in-step waves of identical frequency and phase. [1] The laser’s beam of coherent light differentiates it from light sources that emit incoherent light beams, of random phase varying with time and position. Laser light is generally a narrow-wavelength electromagnetic spectrum monochromatic light; yet, there are lasers that emit a broad spectrum of light, or emit different wavelengths of light simultaneously.

(Exo 28:15) “And you shall make a breastplate of right-ruling, a work of a skilled workman, like the work of the shoulder garment. Make it of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine woven linen. (Exo 28:16) “It is square, doubled, a span its length, and a span its width. (Exo 28:17) “And you shall put settings of stones in it, four rows of stones: The first row is a ruby, a topaz, and an emerald; (Exo 28:18) and the second row is a turquoise, a sapphire, and a almond; (Exo 28:19) and the third row is a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst; (Exo 28:20) and the fourth row is a beryl, and a shoham, and a jasper. They are set in gold settings. (Exo 28:21) “And the stones are according to the names of the sons of Yisra’ĕl, twelve according to their names, like the engravings of a signet, each one with its own name, for the twelve tribes.

(Exo 28:24) “And you shall put the two cords of gold in the two rings which are on the ends of the breastplate, Exo 28:25) and the other two ends of the two cords you fasten to the two settings, and put them on the shoulder pieces of the shoulder garment in the front. (Exo 28:26) “And you shall make two rings of gold, and shall put them on the two ends of the breastplate, on the edge of it, which is on the inner side of the shoulder garment. (Exo 28:27) “And you shall make two rings of gold, and put them on the two shoulder pieces, underneath the shoulder garment, on the front of it, close to the seam above the embroidered band of the shoulder garment, (Exo 28:28) and they bind the breastplate by means of its rings to the rings of the shoulder garment, using a blue cord, so that it is above the embroidered band of the shoulder garment, so that the breastplate does not come loose from the shoulder garment. (Exo 28:29) “And Aharon shall bear the names of the sons of Yisra’ĕl on the breastplate of right-ruling over his heart, when he goes into the set-apart place, for a remembrance before יהוה, continually.(Exo 28:30) “And into the breastplate of right-ruling you shall put the Urim and the Tummim, and they shall be on the heart of Aharon when he goes in before יהוה. And Aharon shall bear the right-ruling of the children of Yisra’ĕl on his heart before יהוה, continually. (Exo 28:31) “And you shall make the robe of the shoulder garment all of blue. (Exo 28:32) “And the opening for his head shall be in the middle of it, a woven binding all around its opening, like the opening in a scaled armor, so that it does not tear. (Exo 28:33) “And on its hem you shall make pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet material, all around its hem, and bells of gold between them all around: (Exo 28:34) a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe all around. (Exo 28:35) “And it shall be upon Aharon to attend in, and its sound shall be heard when he goes into the set-apart place before יהוה and when he comes out, so that he does not die. (Exo 28:36) “And you shall make a plate of clean gold and engrave on it, like the engraving of a signet: SET-APARTNESS TO יהוה. (Exo 28:37) “And you shall put it on a blue cord, and it shall be on the turban – it is to be on the front of the turban. (Exo 28:38) “And it shall be on the forehead of Aharon, and Aharon shall bear the guilt of the set-apart gifts which the children of Yisra’ĕl set apart in all their set-apart gifts. And it shall always be on his forehead, for acceptance for them before יהוה. (Exo 28:39) “And you shall weave the long shirt of fine linen, and shall make the turban of fine linen, and you shall make the girdle of woven work. (Exo 28:40) “And make long shirts for Aharon’s sons. And you shall make girdles for them, and you shall make turbans for them, for esteem and comeliness. (Exo 28:41) “And you shall put them on Aharon your brother and on his sons with him, and shall anoint them, and shall ordain them, and shall set them apart, and they shall serve as priests to Me. (Exo 28:42) “And make linen trousers for them, to cover their nakedness, reaching from the waist to the thighs. (Exo 28:43) “And they shall be on Aharon and on his sons when they come into the Tent of Meeting, or when they come near the altar to attend in the Set-apart Place, so that they do not bear crookedness and die – a law forever to him, and to his seed after him. (Exo 29:1) “And this is the task you shall do to them to set them apart to serve Me as priests: Take one young bull and two rams, perfect ones, (Exo 29:2) and unleavened bread, and unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil – make these of wheat flour. (Exo 29:3) “And you shall put them in one basket and bring them in the basket, along with the bull and the two rams. (Exo 29:4) “Then you shall bring Aharon and his sons to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and wash them with water. (Exo 29:5) “And you shall take the garments, and shall put on Aharon the long shirt, and the robe of the shoulder garment, and the shoulder garment, and the breastplate, and shall gird him with the embroidered band of the shoulder garment, (Exo 29:6) and shall put the turban on his head, and shall put the set-apart sign of dedication on the turban, (Exo 29:7) and shall take the anointing oil, and pour it on his head and anoint him. (Exo 29:8) “Then you shall bring his sons and put long shirts on them, (Exo 29:9) and shall gird them with girdles – Aharon and his sons – and put the turbans on them. And the priesthood shall be theirs for an everlasting law. So you shall ordain Aharon and his sons. (Exo 29:10) “And you shall bring near the bull before the Tent of Meeting, and Aharon and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the bull. (Exo 29:11) “And you shall slaughter the bull before יהוה, by the door of the Tent of Meeting, (Exo 29:12) and take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger, and pour all the blood beside the base of the altar. (Exo 29:13) “And you shall take all the fat that covers the entrails, and the appendage on the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, and burn them on the altar. (Exo 29:14) “But the flesh of the bull, and its skin and its dung, you shall burn with fire outside the camp. It is a sin offering. (Exo 29:15) “And take one ram, and Aharon and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram, (Exo 29:16) and you shall slaughter the ram, and you shall take its blood and sprinkle it all around on the altar. (Exo 29:17) “And cut the ram in pieces, and wash its entrails and its legs, and place them upon its pieces and on its head. (Exo 29:18) “And you shall burn the entire ram on the altar. It is a burnt offering to יהוה; it is a sweet fragrance, an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Exo 29:19) “And you shall take the second ram, and Aharon and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram,(Exo 29:20) and you shall slaughter the ram, and take some of its blood and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aharon and on the tip of the right ear of his sons, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot, and sprinkle the blood all around on the altar. (Exo 29:21) “And you shall take some of the blood that is on the altar, and some of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aharon and on his garments, on his sons and on the garments of his sons with him.

(Exo 29:22) “And you shall take the fat of the ram, and the fat tail, and the fat that covers the entrails, and the appendage on the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat on them, and the right thigh – it is for a ram of ordination – (Exo 29:23) and one loaf of bread, and one cake made with oil, and one thin cake from the basket of the unleavened bread that is before יהוה. (Exo 29:24) “And you shall put all these in the hands of Aharon and in the hands of his sons, and you shall wave them – a wave offering before יהוה. (Exo 29:25) “Then you shall take them from their hands and burn them on the altar as a burnt offering, as a sweet fragrance before יהוה. It is an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Exo 29:26) “And you shall take the breast of the ram of Aharon’s ordination and wave it – a wave offering before יהוה, and it shall be your portion. (Exo 29:27) “And from the ram of ordination you shall set apart the breast of the wave offering which is waved, and the thigh of the contribution which is raised, of that which is for Aharon and of that which is for his sons. (Exo 29:28) “And it shall be from the children of Yisra’ĕl for Aharon and his sons by a law forever, for it is a contribution. And it is a contribution from the children of Yisra’ĕl from their peace offerings – their contribution to יהוה.

There is and always has been a protocol for entering His presence! Today we must be washed in the blood of the LAMB!

(Exo 29:29) “And the set-apart garments of Aharon are for his sons after him, to be anointed in them and to be ordained in them. (Exo 29:30) “The priest from his sons in his place puts them on for seven days, when he enters the Tent of Meeting to attend in the set-apart place. (Exo 29:31) “And take the ram of ordination and cook its flesh in a set-apart place. (Exo 29:32) “And Aharon and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread that is in the basket, by the door of the Tent of Meeting, (Exo 29:33) and they shall eat those offerings with which the atonement was made, to ordain them, to set them apart. But let a stranger not eat them, because they are set-apart. (Exo 29:34) “And if any of the flesh of the ordination offerings, or of the bread, be left over until the morning, then you shall burn up what is left over. It is not eaten, because it is set-apart. (Exo 29:35) “And so you shall do to Aharon and his sons, according to all I have commanded you. Seven days you shall ordain them, (Exo 29:36) and prepare a bull each day as a sin offering for atonement. And you shall cleanse the altar when you make atonement for it, and you shall anoint it to set it apart. (Exo 29:37) “For seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and set it apart. And the altar shall be most set-apart – whatever touches the altar is to be set-apart. (Exo 29:38) “And this is what you prepare on the altar: two lambs, a year old, daily, continually. (Exo 29:39) “Prepare the one lamb in the morning, and the other lamb you prepare between the evenings, (Exo 29:40) and one-tenth of an ĕphah of flour mixed with one-fourth of a hin of pressed oil, and one-fourth of a hin of wine as a drink offering, with the one lamb. (Exo 29:41) “And prepare the other lamb between the evenings. And with it prepare the grain offering and the drink offering, as in the morning, for a sweet fragrance, an offering made by fire to יהוה – (Exo 29:42) a continual burnt offering for your generations at the door of the Tent of Meeting before יהוה, where I shall meet with you to speak with you. (Exo 29:43) “And there I shall meet with the children of Yisra’ĕl, and it shall be set apart by My esteem. (Exo 29:44) “And I shall set apart the Tent of Meeting and the altar. And Aharon and his sons I set apart to serve as priests to me. (Exo 29:45) “And I shall dwell in the midst of the children of Yisra’ĕl and shall be their Elohim. (Exo 29:46) “And they shall know that I am יהוה their Elohim, who brought them up out of the land of Mitsrayim, to dwell in their midst. I am יהוה their Elohim.

The prayers of the believers are now the sweet incense to our Father!

(Rev 5:7) And He came and took the scroll out of the right hand of Him sitting on the throne.

(Rev 5:8) And when He took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of the set-apart ones. (Rev 5:9) And they sang a renewed song, saying, “You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals, because You were slain, and have redeemed us to Elohim by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, (Rev 5:10) and made us sovereigns and priests to our Elohim, and we shall reign upon the earth.”1 Footnote: 1Dan. 7:18- 7. (Rev 5:11) And I looked, and I heard the voice of many messengers around the throne, and the living creatures, and the elders. And the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands, (Rev 5:12) saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb having been slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, and strength and respect and esteem and blessing!”

(Exo 30:1) “And you shall make an altar to burn incense on, make it of acacia wood, (Exo 30:2) a cubit long and a cubit wide – it is a square – and two cubits high, its horns of the same. (Exo 30:3) “And you shall overlay its top, and its sides all around, and its horns with clean gold. And you shall make for it a molding of gold all around. (Exo 30:4) “And make two gold rings for it, under the molding on both its sides. Make them on its two sides, and they shall be holders for the poles to lift it with. (Exo 30:5) “And you shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold. (Exo 30:6) “And you shall put it before the veil that is before the ark of the Witness, before the lid of atonement that is over the Witness, where I am to meet with you.

(Exo 30:7) “And Aharon shall burn on it sweet incense, morning by morning. As he tends the lamps, he shall burn incense on it. (Exo 30:8) “And when Aharon lights the lamps between the evenings, he shall burn incense on it – continual incense before יהוה throughout your generations.

Later we see Aaron’s sons offer “strange fire” or strange worship and die!

(Exo 30:9) “Do not offer strange incense on it, or a burnt offering, or a grain offering, and do not pour a drink offering on it. (Exo 30:10) “And Aharon shall make atonement upon its horns once a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonement – once a year he makes atonement upon it throughout your generations. It is most set-apart to יהוה.”

Apparently, we see our own crooked ways and be ashamed. YIKES- that’s now!

(Eze 43:10) “Son of man, explain the House to the house of Yisra’ĕl, and when they are ashamed of their crookednesses, they shall measure the measurements. (Eze 43:11) “And since they shall be ashamed of all that they did, make known to them the design of the House and its structure, and its exits and its entrances, its entire design and all its laws, and all its forms and all its Torot. And write it down before their eyes, so that they observe its entire design and all its laws, and shall do them. (Eze 43:12) “This is the Torah of the House: Upon the mountaintop, all the boundary of it, all around, is most set-apart. See, this is the Torah of the House. (Eze 43:13) “And these are the measurements of the altar in cubits, that cubit being one cubit and a handbreadth, and the base one cubit high and one cubit wide, with a rim all around its edge of one span. And this is the upper part of the altar. (Eze 43:14) “And from the base on the ground to the lower ledge, two cubits, and the width of the ledge one cubit, and from the smaller ledge to the larger ledge four cubits, and the width of the ledge one cubit. (Eze 43:15) “And the altar hearth is four cubits high, and four horns extending upward from the hearth. (Eze 43:16) “And the altar hearth is twelve cubits long, and twelve wide, square at its four corners. (Eze 43:17) “And the ledge is fourteen long and fourteen wide on its four sides, with a rim of half a cubit around it, and its base one cubit all around, and its steps face east.” (Eze 43:18) And He said to me, “Son of man, thus said the Master יהוה, ‘These are the laws for the altar on the day when it is made, for offering burnt offerings on it, and for sprinkling blood on it. (Eze 43:19) ‘And you shall give a young bull for a sin offering to the priests, the Lĕwites, who are of the seed of Tsaḏoq, who approach unto me,’ declares the Master יהוה. (Eze 43:20) ‘And you shall take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar, on the four corners of the ledge, and on the rim around it, and shall cleanse it and make atonement for it. (Eze 43:21) ‘And you shall take the bull of the sin offering, and shall burn it in the appointed place of the House, outside the set-apart place. (Eze 43:22) ‘And on the second day you bring a male goat, a perfect one, for a sin offering. And they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bull. (Eze 43:23) ‘When you have ended cleansing it, bring a young bull, a perfect one, and a ram from the flock, a perfect one. (Eze 43:24) ‘And you shall bring them before יהוה, and the priests shall throw salt on them and offer them up as a burnt offering to יהוה. (Eze 43:25) ‘Prepare a goat for a sin offering daily for seven days, and prepare a young bull and a ram from the flock, perfect ones. (Eze 43:26) ‘For seven days they shall make atonement for the altar and cleanse it, and ordain it. (Eze 43:27) ‘And when these days are completed it shall be, on the eighth day and thereafter, that the priests make your burnt offerings and your peace offerings on the altar, and I shall accept you,’ declares the Master יהוה.”

Let sin not be in our camps either! Sin… do we remember? That thing called transgressing the TORAH (law) in 1 John!

(Heb 13:10) We have an altar from which those serving the Tent have no authority to eat. (Heb 13:11) For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the Set-apart Place by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp. (Heb 13:12) And so יהושע also suffered outside the gate, to set apart the people with His own blood. (Heb 13:13) Let us, then, go to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach. (Heb 13:14) We have no lasting city here, but we seek the one coming. (Heb 13:15) Through Him then, let us continually offer up a slaughter offering of praise to Elohim, that is, the fruit of our lips,1 giving thanks to His Name. Footnote: 1Or “bulls of our lips” - See Hoshea. 14:2. (Heb 13:16) and do not forget to do well and to share, for with such slaughter offerings Elohim is well pleased. (Heb 13:17) Obey those leading you, and be subject to them, for they watch for your lives, as having to give account. Let them do so with joy and not groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.

Sha’ul Reigns as King!

(1Sa 13:1) Sha’ul was 30 years old when he began to reign. And when he had reigned two years over Yisra’ĕl, (1Sa 13:2) Sha’ul chose for himself three thousand men of Yisra’ĕl. And two thousand were with Sha’ul in Miḵmash and in the mountains of Bĕyth Ěl, and a thousand were with Yonathan in Giḇʽah of Binyamin. And the rest of the people he sent away, each to his tent.

(1Sa 13:3) And Yonathan smote the watch-post of the Philistines that was in Geḇa, and the Philistines heard of it. And Sha’ul blew the ram’s horn throughout all the land, saying, “Let the Heḇrews hear!” (1Sa 13:4) And all Yisra’ĕl heard the news that Sha’ul had smitten a watch-post of the Philistines, and also that Yisra’ĕl had become a stench to the Philistines. And the people were summoned to Sha’ul at Gilgal. (1Sa 13:5) And the Philistines gathered to fight Yisra’ĕl, with thirty thousand chariots and six thousand horsemen, and people as numerous as the sand on the seashore. And they came up and encamped in Miḵmash, east of Bĕyth Awen. (1Sa 13:6) And the men of Yisra’ĕl saw that they were in trouble, for the people were distressed, and the people hid in caves, and in thorny bushes, and in rocks, and in holes, and in pits. (1Sa 13:7) And some Heḇrews passed over the Yardĕn to the land of Gaḏ and Gilʽaḏ. But Sha’ul was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him, trembling. (1Sa 13:8) And he waited for seven days, according to the appointment with Shemu’ĕl. But Shemu’ĕl did not come to Gilgal, and the people were scattered from him. (1Sa 13:9) And Sha’ul said, “Bring a burnt offering and peace offerings here to me.” And he offered the burnt offering. (1Sa 13:10) And it came to be, as he had finished offering the burnt offering, look, Shemu’ĕl came. And Sha’ul went out to meet him, to bless him.

Note also the reign of Sha’ul was not established forever but given to King David due to Sha’ul’s disobedience!

(1Sa 13:11) Then Shemu’ĕl said, “What have you done?” And Sha’ul said, “Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered at Miḵmash, (1Sa 13:12) so I said, ‘The Philistines are going to come down on me at Gilgal, and I have not appeased the face of יהוה.’ So I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering.” (1Sa 13:13) And Shemu’ĕl said to Sha’ul, “You have been foolish. You have not guarded the command of יהוה your Elohim, which He commanded you. Now יהוה would have established your reign over Yisra’ĕl forever. (1Sa 13:14) “But now, your reign is not going to stand. יהוה shall seek for Himself a man after His own heart1, and יהוה shall command him to be leader over His people, because you have not guarded what יהוה commanded you.” Footnote: 1See Acts 13:22. (1Sa 13:15) And Shemu’ĕl arose and went up from Gilgal to Giḇʽah of Binyamin. And Sha’ul mustered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men. (1Sa 13:16) And Sha’ul, and Yonathan his son, and the people who were present with them remained in Giḇʽah of Binyamin, while the Philistines camped at Miḵmash. (1Sa 13:17) And from the camp of the Philistines raiders went out in three companies. The one company turned to the way that leads to Ophrah, to the land of Shuʽal, (1Sa 13:18) and another company turned toward the way of Bĕyth Ḥoron, and another company turned toward the way of the border that overlooks the Valley of Tseḇoʽim toward the wilderness.

Israel MUST rely on YHWH – they have insufficient weapons! Sounds familiar for our coming great and awesome deliverance! (We also will not have the weapons the elite armies of the Globalists have!)

(1Sa 13:19) Now no blacksmith could be found in all the land of Yisra’ĕl, for the Philistines said, “Lest the Heḇrews make swords or spears.” (1Sa 13:20) And all Yisra’ĕl went down to the Philistines, each one to sharpen his ploughshare, and his mattock, and his axe, and his sickle. (1Sa 13:21) And the charge was a pim for the ploughshares, and the mattocks, and the forks, and the axes, and to set the points of the goads. (1Sa 13:22) And it came to be, on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Sha’ul and Yonathan. But they were found with Sha’ul and Yonathan his son. (1Sa 13:23) And the outpost of the Philistines went out to the pass of Miḵmash. (1Sa 14:1) And it came to be one day that Yonathan son of Sha’ul said to the young man who bore his armor, “Come, and let us go over to the outpost of the Philistines which is on the other side.” But he did not inform his father. (1Sa 14:2) And Sha’ul remained at the outskirts of Giḇʽah under a pomegranate tree at Miḡron, and the people who were with him were about six hundred men. (1Sa 14:3) And Aḥiyah son of Aḥituḇ, Iḵaḇoḏ’s brother, son of Pineḥas, son of Eli, the priest of יהוה in Shiloh, was wearing a shoulder garment. And the people did not know that Yonathan had gone. (1Sa 14:4) And between the passes, by which Yonathan sought to go over to the outpost of the Philistines, there was an edge of a rock on one side and an edge of a rock on the other side. And the name of one was Botsĕts, and the name of the other Seneh. (1Sa 14:5) The one edge was on the north opposite Miḵmash, and the other on the south opposite Giḇʽah. (1Sa 14:6) And Yehonathan said to the young man who bore his armor, “Come, and let us go over to the outpost of these uncircumcised. If so be, יהוה does work for us. There is no hindrance for יהוה to save by many or by few.” (1Sa 14:7) And his armor-bearer said to him, “Do all that is in your heart, incline yourself. See, I am with you, according to your heart.” (1Sa 14:8) And Yehonathan said, “See, we are passing over to the men – and show ourselves to them. (1Sa 14:9) “If they say this to us, ‘Wait until we come to you,’ then we shall stand still in our place and not go up to them. (1Sa 14:10) “But if they say this, ‘Come up to us,’ then we shall go up. For יהוה has given them into our hand, and this is the sign to us.” (1Sa 14:11) And both of them disclosed themselves to the outpost of the Philistines, and the Philistines said, “See, the Heḇrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden.” (1Sa 14:12) And the men of the outpost called to Yonathan and his armor-bearer, and said, “Come up to us, and let us teach you a lesson.” Then Yonathan said to his armor-bearer, “Come up after me, for יהוה has given them into the hand of Yisra’ĕl.” (1Sa 14:13) And Yonathan climbed up on his hands and knees with his armor-bearer after him. And they fell before Yonathan, and his armor-bearer was putting them to death behind him. (1Sa 14:14) And that first slaughter which Yonathan and his armor-bearer made was about twenty men, in about half an acre of land. (1Sa 14:15) And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. The outpost and the raiders also trembled, and the ground shook. And it became a trembling of Elohim. (1Sa 14:16) And the watchmen of Sha’ul in Giḇʽah of Binyamin looked and saw the crowd melting away, and they went here and there. (1Sa 14:17) And Sha’ul said to the people who were with him, “Please inspect and see who has gone from us.” So they inspected and saw that Yonathan and his armor-bearer were missing. (1Sa 14:18) And Sha’ul said to Aḥiyah, “Bring the ark of Elohim here.” The ark of Elohim was with the children of Yisra’ĕl on that day. (1Sa 14:19) And it came to be, while Sha’ul talked to the priest, that the noise which was in the camp of the Philistines went on, and became great, so Sha’ul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.” (1Sa 14:20) And Sha’ul was called, and all the people who were with him, and they went to the battle. And see, every man’s sword was against his neighbor – a very great confusion. (1Sa 14:21) And the Heḇrews who were with the Philistines before that time, who went up with them into the camp, turned round, they too, to be with Yisra’ĕl, who were with Sha’ul and Yonathan. (1Sa 14:22) And all the men of Yisra’ĕl who had hidden in the mountains of Ephrayim, heard that the Philistines fled, and they also pursued them in the battle. (1Sa 14:23) Thus יהוה saved Yisra’ĕl that day, and the battle passed over to Bĕyth Awen. (1Sa 14:24) And the men of Yisra’ĕl were distressed that day, for Sha’ul had placed the people under oath, saying, “Cursed be the man who eats food until evening, and I have taken revenge on my enemies.” Therefore none of the people tasted food. (1Sa 14:25) And all they of the land came into the woods, and there was honey on the ground. (1Sa 14:26) And the people came into the woods and saw the honey, dripping. But no one put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath. (1Sa 14:27) But Yonathan had not heard that his father had taken an oath of the people, and he stretched out the end of the rod that was in his hand and dipped it in a honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth. And his eyes lit up. (1Sa 14:28) Then one of the people said, “Your father strictly took an oath of the people, saying, ‘Cursed be the man who eats food today.’ ” And the people were weary. (1Sa 14:29) And Yonathan said, “My father has troubled the land. Now see how my eyes lit up when I tasted a little of this honey. (1Sa 14:30) “How much better if the people had well eaten today of the spoil of their enemies which they found? For then, would not the slaughter among the Philistines have been greater?” (1Sa 14:31) And they smote the Philistines that day from Miḵmash to Ayalon. So the people were very weary, (1Sa 14:32) and the people pounced on the spoil, and took sheep, and cattle, and calves, and slaughtered them on the ground. And the people ate with the blood. (1Sa 14:33) And they told Sha’ul, saying, “Look, the people are sinning against יהוה by eating with the blood!” And he said, “You have acted treacherously. Roll a large stone to me today.” (1Sa 14:34) And Sha’ul said, “Scatter among the people, and say to them, ‘Each one bring his ox near to me, and each one his sheep, and you shall slaughter them here, and eat. And do not sin against יהוה by eating with the blood.’ ” So every one of the people brought his ox with him that night, and slaughtered it there. (1Sa 14:35) And Sha’ul built an altar to יהוה. It was the first altar he built to יהוה. (1Sa 14:36) And Sha’ul said, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light, and not leave a man of them.” And they said, “Do whatever seems good to you.” But the priest said, “Let us draw near to Elohim here.” (1Sa 14:37) And Sha’ul asked of Elohim, “Should I go down after the Philistines? Do you give them into the hand of Yisra’ĕl?” But He did not answer him that day. (1Sa 14:38) And Sha’ul said, “Come over here, all you chiefs of the people, and know and see what this sin was today.

(1Sa 14:39) “For as יהוה lives, who saves Yisra’ĕl, though it be in Yonathan my son, he shall certainly die.” But not one among all the people answered him. (1Sa 14:40) And he said to all Yisra’ĕl, “You be on one side, and my son Yonathan and I be on the other side.” And the people said to Sha’ul, “Do what seems good to you.” (1Sa 14:41) Then Sha’ul said to יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, “Give a perfect lot.” And Sha’ul and Yonathan were taken, but the people escaped. (1Sa 14:42) And Sha’ul said, “Cast lots between my son Yonathan and me.” And Yonathan was taken.

(1Sa 14:43) Sha’ul then said to Yonathan, “Explain to me what you have done.” And Yonathan explained to him, and said, “I only tasted a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand. See, let me die!” (1Sa 14:44) And Sha’ul answered, “Elohim do so and more also, for you shall certainly die, Yonathan.” (1Sa 14:45) But the people said to Sha’ul, “Should Yonathan die, who has wrought this great deliverance in Yisra’ĕl? Far be it! As יהוה lives, let not one hair of his head fall to the ground, for he has wrought with Elohim this day.” Thus the people delivered Yonathan, and he did not die. (1Sa 14:46) And Sha’ul returned from pursuing the Philistines, and the Philistines went to their own place. 1Sa 14:47) And Sha’ul took the reign over Yisra’ĕl, and fought against all his enemies round about, against Mo’aḇ, and against the children of Ammon, and against Eḏom, and against the sovereigns of Tsoḇah, and against the Philistines. And wherever he turned, he inflicted punishment. (1Sa 14:48) And he gathered an army and smote the Amalĕqites, and delivered Yisra’ĕl from the hands of those who plundered them. (1Sa 14:49) And the sons of Sha’ul were Yonathan and Yishwi and Malkishua. And the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the first-born Mĕraḇ, and the name of the younger Miḵal.

(1Sa 14:50) And the name of Sha’ul’s wife was Aḥinoʽam the daughter of Aḥimaʽats. And the name of the commander of his army was Aḇnĕr son of Nĕr, uncle of Sha’ul.’ (1Sa 14:51) And Qish was the father of Sha’ul, and Nĕr the father of Aḇnĕr was the son of Aḇi’ĕl. (1Sa 14:52) And there was fierce fighting against the Philistines all the days of Sha’ul. And when Sha’ul saw any mighty man or any brave man, he took him for himself.

Sometimes (always?) when we set up a monument to ourselves and puff ourselves up- we miss the command of YHWH altogether!

(1Sa 15:1) And Shemu’ĕl said to Sha’ul, “יהוה sent me to anoint you sovereign over His people, over Yisra’ĕl. And now, listen to the voice of the words of יהוה. (1Sa 15:2) “Thus said יהוה of hosts, ‘I shall punish Amalĕq for what he did to Yisra’ĕl, how he set himself against him on the way when he came up from Mitsrayim. (1Sa 15:3) ‘Now go, and you shall smite Amalĕq and put under the ban all that he has, and you shall not spare them, and put to death from man to woman, from infant to nursing child, from ox to sheep, from camel to donkey.’ ” (1Sa 15:4) Then Sha’ul summoned the people and mustered them in Tela’im, two hundred thousand foot soldiers and ten thousand men of Yehuḏah. (1Sa 15:5) And Sha’ul came to a city of Amalĕq, and lay in wait in the wadi. (1Sa 15:6) And Sha’ul said to the Qĕynites, “Go, turn aside, and come down from among the Amalĕqites, lest I destroy you with them. For you did show kindness to all the children of Yisra’ĕl when they came up out of Mitsrayim.” So the Qĕynites turned aside from the midst of the Amalĕqites. (1Sa 15:7) And Sha’ul smote the Amalĕqites, from Ḥawilah all the way to Shur, which is before Mitsrayim. (1Sa 15:8) And he caught Aḡaḡ sovereign of the Amalĕqites alive, and put under the ban all the people with the edge of the sword. (1Sa 15:9) But Sha’ul and the people spared Aḡaḡ and the best of the sheep, and the cattle, and the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not put them under the ban. But all goods despised and worthless, that they put under the ban. (1Sa 15:10) And the word of יהוה came to Shemu’ĕl, saying, (1Sa 15:11) “I am grieved that I have set up Sha’ul as sovereign, for he has turned back from following Me, and has not performed My words.” And it displeased Shemu’ĕl, and he cried to יהוה all night. (1Sa 15:12) And Shemu’ĕl rose early in the morning to meet Sha’ul, and it was told to Shemu’ĕl, saying, “Sha’ul went to Karmel, and see, he set up a monument for himself, then turned and passed over, and went down to Gilgal.” (1Sa 15:13) And Shemu’ĕl came to Sha’ul, and Sha’ul said to him, “Blessed are you of יהוה! I have performed the word of יהוה.” (1Sa 15:14) But Shemu’ĕl said, “What then is this bleating of the sheep in my ears, and the lowing of the cattle which I hear?” (1Sa 15:15) And Sha’ul said, “They have brought them from Amalĕq, because the people spared the best of the sheep and the cattle, to slaughter to יהוה your Elohim. And the rest we have put under the ban.” (1Sa 15:16) And Shemu’ĕl said to Sha’ul, “Wait, and let me declare to you what יהוה said to me last night.” And he said to him, “Speak.” (1Sa 15:17) And Shemu’ĕl said, “Though you were little in your own eyes, were you not head of the tribes of Yisra’ĕl? And did not יהוה anoint you sovereign over Yisra’ĕl? (1Sa 15:18) “And יהוה sent you on the way, and said, ‘Go, and you shall put under the ban the sinners, the Amalĕqites, and fight against them until they are consumed.’ (1Sa 15:19) “And why did you not obey the voice of יהוה, but swooped down on the spoil, and did evil in the eyes of יהוה?” (1Sa 15:20) And Sha’ul said to Shemu’ĕl, “I did obey the voice of יהוה, and I went on the way on which יהוה sent me, and brought back Aḡaḡ sovereign of Amalĕq, and I put Amalĕq under the ban. (1Sa 15:21) “But the people took of the spoil, of the sheep and cattle, the best of that which should have been put under the ban, to slaughter to יהוה your Elohim in Gilgal.” (1Sa 15:22) Then Shemu’ĕl said, “Does יהוה delight in burnt offerings and slaughterings, as in obeying the voice of יהוה? Look, to obey is better than an offering, to heed is better than the fat of rams. (1Sa 15:23) “For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and stubbornness is as wickedness and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of יהוה, He also does reject you as sovereign.” (1Sa 15:24) And Sha’ul said to Shemu’ĕl, “I have sinned, for I have transgressed the command of יהוה and your words, because I feared the people and listened to their voice. (1Sa 15:25) “And now, please pardon my sin, and return with me, and let me bow myself to יהוה. (1Sa 15:26) But Shemu’ĕl said to Sha’ul, “I do not return with you, for you have rejected the word of יהוה, and יהוה does reject you from being sovereign over Yisra’ĕl.” (1Sa 15:27) And as Shemu’ĕl turned around to go away, Sha’ul seized the edge of his robe, and it tore. (1 Sam 15:28) And Shemu’ĕl said to him, “יהוה has torn the reign of Yisra’ĕl from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours, better than you. (1Sa 15:29) “Moreover, the Eminence of Yisra’ĕl does not lie nor relent. He is not a man that He should relent.” (1Sa 15:30) Then he said, “I have sinned. But esteem me now, please, before the elders of my people and before Yisra’ĕl, and return with me, and I shall bow myself to יהוה your Elohim.” (1Sa 15:31) And Shemu’ĕl turned back after Sha’ul, and Sha’ul bowed himself to יהוה. (1Sa 15:32) And Shemu’ĕl said, “Bring Aḡaḡ sovereign of the Amalĕqites here to me.” So Aḡaḡ came to him delightedly, and Aḡaḡ said, “Truly, the bitterness of death has turned aside.” (1Sa 15:33) And Shemu’ĕl said, “As your sword bereaved women, let your mother be bereaved among women too.” Shemu’ĕl then hewed Aḡaḡ to pieces before יהוה in Gilgal. (1Sa 15:34) And Shemu’ĕl went to Ramah, while Sha’ul went up to his house at Giḇʽah of Sha’ul. (1Sa 15:35) And Shemu’ĕl did not see Sha’ul again until the day of his death, for Shemu’ĕl mourned for Sha’ul. And יהוה was grieved that He had made Sha’ul to reign over Yisra’ĕl.

Shalom to you loved one! May His peace direct, provide, protect as He gives you and your loved ones provision in the Days of Jacob’s trouble now approaching us. May your belief and trust in Him grow as you willingly choose to Hear and Obey Him! May you remember and write on your heart this Scripture promise that you and your loved ones ALL enter the Kingdom- no matter what it appears to look like; (1Jn 5:12) He who has Yahshua has life; he who does not have the Son of YHWH does not have life. (1Jn 5:13) These things I have written to you who believe in the name of Yahshua, the Son of YHWH, so that you may know that you have eternal life. (1Jn 5:14) This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. (1Jn 5:15) And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.

Shalom to your home loved one,
Thurston

Shabbat Shalom Loved One!

Do remember www.seedtime2harvest.com as we will soon be adding the newest DVD/CD about the times and seasons approaching as we watch for the barley Abiv to determine whether or not there will be an added 30 days (Adar Bet) as this could well determine if rockets fly in September or October 2010. Check out the newsletters at: www.shabbatshalomlovedone.blogspot.com

Last week we were reminded of YHWH’s right rulings, His Moedim- Appointed Times, and how magic is detestable to Him! Last week we were again warned that the Sabbath is His commanded rest and is the first of the Feasts of YHWH Note also that YHWH commands we not appear at His commanded Feasts (Moedim-rehearsals/appointments with Him) without our tithe/offerings. Let’s look again briefly as a review; (Exo 23:12) “Six days you are to do your work, and on the seventh day you rest, in order that your ox and your donkey might rest, and the son of your female servant and the sojourner be refreshed. (Exo 23:13) “And in all that I have said to you take heed. And make no mention of the name of other mighty ones, let it not be heard from your mouth. (Exo 23:14) “Three1 times in the year you are to observe a festival to me: Footnote: 1The Festivals (Feasts- Moedim- Appointed Times) of יהוה are grouped in three, for three different times of the year. (Exo 23:15) “Guard the Festival of Unleavened Bread. Seven days you eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month of Aḇiḇ – for in it you came out of Mitsrayim – and do not appear before Me empty-handed; (Comment: apparently the tithes and offerings are to be used for helping others keep His commanded Moedim- Feasts-His Appointed Times) (Exo 23:16) and the Festival of the Harvest, the first-fruits of your labors which you have sown in the field; and the Festival of the Ingathering at the outgoing of the year, when you have gathered in the fruit of your labors from the field. (Exo 23:17) “Three times in the year all your males are to appear before the Master יהוה. (Exo 23:18) “Do not offer the blood of my slaughtering with leavened bread, and the fat of my offering shall not remain until morning. (Exo 23:19) “Bring the first of the first-fruits of your land into the House of יהוה your Elohim.

We also remember how YHWH is going to judge the Harry Potter witchcraft magic- makers of today. (He’s ultimately still in charge of the results for this activity!)-(Exo 22:18) “Do not allow practicers of witchcraft to live. (Exo 22:19) “Anyone lying with a beast shall certainly be put to death. (Exo 22:20) “He who slaughters to a mighty one, except to יהוה only, is put under the ban. (Exo 22:21) “Do not tread down a sojourner or oppress him, for you were sojourners in the land of Mitsrayim. (Exo 22:22) “Do not afflict any widow or fatherless child. (Exo 22:23) “If you do afflict them at all – if they cry out to Me at all, I shall certainly hear their cry, (Exo 22:24) and My wrath shall burn and I shall slay you with the sword, your wives shall be widows and your children fatherless. (Exo 22:25) “If you do lend silver to any of my people, the poor among you, you are not to be like one that lends on interest to him. Do not lay interest on him. (Exo 22:26) “If you take your neighbor’s garment as a pledge at all, you are to return it to him before the sun goes down. (Exo 22:27) “For that is his only covering, it is his garment for his skin. What does he sleep in? And it shall be that when he cries to Me, I shall hear, for I show favor. (Exo 22:28) “Do not revile Elohim, nor curse a ruler of your people. We also remembered about the narrow way YHWQH expects us to walk in and that most the HUGE MAJORITY are headed toward destruction thinking all is ok!-(Mat 7:13) “Enter in through the narrow gate! Because the gate is wide – and the way is broad – that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in through it. (Mat 7:14) “Because the gate is narrow and the way is hard pressed1 which leads to life, and there are few who find it. Footnote: 1Or the way is afflicted. (Mat 7:15) “But beware of the false prophets,1 who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are savage wolves. Footnote: 1See v. 23

This week’s Torah readings are to teach about our offerings:

Here are this week’s torah Scriptures: Teruma- Offerings

Exodus 25:1-27:19; 1Kings 5:12-6:13; Matthew 5:17-37;

1Samuel Chapters 10, 11, and 12

(Exo 25:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Exo 25:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, that they take up a contribution for Me. From everyone whose heart moves him you shall take up my contribution. (Exo 25:3) “And this is the contribution which you take up from them: gold, and silver, and bronze, (Exo 25:4) and blue and purple and scarlet material, and fine linen, and goats’ hair, (Exo 25:5) and rams’ skins dyed red, and fine leather, and acacia wood, (Exo 25:6) oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil and for the sweet incense, (Exo 25:7) shoham stones, and stones to be set in the shoulder garment and in the breastplate. (Exo 25:8) “And they shall make me a Set-apart Place, and I shall dwell in their midst. (Exo 25:9) “According to all that I show you – the pattern of the Dwelling Place and the pattern of all its furnishings – make it exactly so. (Exo 25:10) “And they shall make an ark of acacia wood two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high. (Exo 25:11) “And you shall overlay it with clean gold, inside and outside you shall overlay it. And you shall make on it a molding of gold all around. (Exo 25:12) “And you shall cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in its four corners, two rings on one side, and two rings on the other side. (Exo 25:13) “And you shall make poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, (Exo 25:14) and shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to lift up the ark by them. (Exo 25:15) “The poles are in the rings of the ark, they are not taken from it. (Exo 25:16) “And into the ark you shall put the Witness which I give you. (Exo 25:17) “And you shall make a lid of atonement of clean gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide. (Exo 25:18) “And you shall make two keruḇim of gold; make them of beaten work, at the two ends of the lid of atonement. (Exo 25:19) “And make one keruḇ at one end and the other keruḇ (angel) at the other end. Make the keruḇim from the lid of atonement, at its two ends. (Exo 25:20) “And the keruḇim shall be spreading out their wings above, covering the lid of atonement with their wings, with their faces toward each other, the faces of the keruḇim turned toward the lid of atonement. (Exo 25:21) “And you shall put the lid of atonement on top of the ark, and put into the ark the Witness which I give you. (Exo 25:22) “And I shall meet with you there, and from above the lid of atonement, from between the two keruḇim which are on the ark of the Witness, I shall speak to you all that which I command you concerning the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Exo 25:23) “And you shall make a table of acacia wood two cubits long, a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high. (Exo 25:24) “And you shall overlay it with clean gold, and shall make a molding of gold all around, (Exo 25:25) and shall make for it a rim of a handbreadth all around, and shall make a gold molding for the rim all around. (Exo 25:26) “And you shall make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings on the four corners that are at its four legs. (Exo 25:27) “The rings are close to the rim, as holders for the poles to lift the table. (Exo 25:28) “And you shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, and the table shall be lifted with them. (Exo 25:29) “And you shall make its dishes, and its ladles, and its jars, and its bowls for pouring. Make them of clean gold. (Exo 25:30) “And you shall put the showbread on the table before me, continually. (Exo 25:31) “And you shall make a lampstand of clean gold – the lampstand is made of beaten work.

There are several videos from Michael Rood available at: (www.aroodawakening.tv) and Wyatt Museum (www.wyattmuseum.com) that tell about the pattern of the Ark and finding of dried blood on the Mercy Seat where the Ark of the Covenant was allegedly found many years ago- directly underneath the cross holes.

Note that Solomon gained WISDOM from YHWH! (Pro 4:5) Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. (Pro 4:6) Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee. (Pro 4:7) Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

(1Ki 5:12) And יהוה gave Shelomoh wisdom, as He promised him. And there was peace between Ḥiram and Shelomoh, and the two of them made a covenant. (1Ki 5:13) And Sovereign Shelomoh rose up compulsory labor out of all Yisra’ĕl. And the compulsory labor was thirty thousand men. (1Ki 5:14) And he sent them to Leḇanon, ten thousand a month by courses – they were one month in Leḇanon, two months at home. And Aḏoniram was over the compulsory labor. (1Ki 5:15) And Shelomoh had seventy thousand bearing burdens, and eighty thousand hewing stone in the mountains, (1Ki 5:16) besides three thousand three hundred from the chiefs of Shelomoh’s deputies who were over the work, those ruling over the people who labored in the work. (1Ki 5:17) And the sovereign commanded, and they brought large stones, precious stones, to lay the foundation of the House with hewn stones. (1Ki 5:18) And Shelomoh’s builders, and Ḥiram’s builders, and the men of Geḇal did hew, and prepared timber and stones to build the House. (1Ki 6:1) And it came to be, in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Yisra’ĕl had come out of the land of Mitsrayim, in the fourth year of the reign of Shelomoh over Yisra’ĕl, in the month of Ziw, which is the second month that he began to build the House of יהוה. (1Ki 6:2) And the house which Sovereign Shelomoh built for יהוה was sixty cubits long, and twenty wide, and thirty cubits high. (1Ki 6:3) And the porch at the front of the hĕḵal of the House was twenty cubits long, according to the breadth of the House, and its width ten cubits, from the front of the House. (1Ki 6:4) And he made for the House windows with narrowed frames. (1Ki 6:5) And against the wall of the House he built rooms all around, against the walls of the House, all around the hĕḵal and the Speaking Place. Thus he made side rooms all around. (1Ki 6:6) The lowest side room was five cubits wide, and the middle one was six cubits wide, and the third one was seven cubits wide; for he made narrow ledges around the outside of the House, so as not to lay hold on the walls of the House. (1Ki 6:7) And the House, when it was being built, was built with finished stone made ready beforehand, so that no hammer or chisel or any iron tool was heard in the House while it was being built. (1Ki 6:8) The doorway for the middle side room was on the right side of the House. And they went up by stairs to the middle side rooms and from the middle to the third. (1Ki 6:9) So he built the House and completed it, and he paneled the House with beams and boards of cedar. (1Ki 6:10) And he built the side rooms of the structure against the entire House, each five cubits high, and they were fastened to the House with cedar beams. (1Ki 6:11) And the word of יהוה came to Shelomoh, saying, (1Ki 6:12) “This House which you are building – if you walk in My laws, and do My right-rulings, and shall guard all My commands and walk in them, then I shall confirm My word with you, which I spoke to your father Dawiḏ, (1Ki 6:13) and shall dwell in the midst of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and not forsake My people Yisra’ĕl.”

Here’s wisdom for those who have an ear to hear and eyes to see!

(Mat 5:17) “Do not think that I came to destroy (abolish-do away with) the Torah or the Prophets.1 I did not come to destroy but to complete. Footnote: 1The Law and the Prophets is a term used for the pre-Messianic Scriptures. (Mat 5:18) “For truly, I say to you, till the heaven and the earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done.1 Footnote: 1Lk. 16:17. (Mat 5:19) “Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens. (Mat 5:20) “For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees,1 you shall by no means enter into the reign of the heavens. Footnote: 1Mt. 15:3-9, Mk. 7:7-13, John 7:19, Acts 7:53, Rom. 2:23-27, Gal. 6:13. (Mat 5:21) “You heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder,’ and whoever murders shall be liable to judgment. (Mat 5:22) “But I say to you that whoever is wroth with his brother without a cause shall be liable to judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raka!’ shall be liable to the Sanhedrin. But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be liable to fire of Gehenna. (Mat 5:23) “If, then, you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother holds whatever against you, (Mat 5:24) leave your gift there before the altar, and go, first make peace with your brother, and then come and offer your gift. (Mat 5:25) “Be well-minded with your opponent, promptly, while you are on the way with him, lest your opponent deliver you to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison. (Mat 5:26) “Truly, I say to you, you shall by no means get out of there till you have paid the last penny. (Mat 5:27) “You heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ (Mat 5:28) “But I say to you that everyone looking at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. (Mat 5:29) “And if your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. It is better for you that one of your members perishes, than for your entire body to be thrown into Gehenna. (Mat 5:30) “And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you. It is better for you that one of your members perishes, than for your entire body to be thrown into Gehenna. (Mat 5:31) “And it has been said, ‘Whoever puts away his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ (Mat 5:32) “But I say to you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the matter of whoring,1 makes her commit adultery. And whoever marries a woman who has been put away commits adultery. Footnote: 1Mt. 19:9, Dt. 24:1. (Mat 5:33) “Again, you heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to יהוה.’ (Mat 5:34) “But I say to you, do not swear at all, neither by the heaven, because it is Elohim’s throne; (Mat 5:35) nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Yerushalayim, for it is the city of the great Sovereign; (Mat 5:36) nor swear by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black. (Mat 5:37) “But let your word ‘Yea’ be ‘Yea,’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ And what goes beyond these is from the wicked one.

Sha’ul anointed King!

(1Sa 10:1) And Shemu’ĕl took a flask of oil and poured it on his head, and kissed him and said, “Is it not because יהוה has anointed you leader over His inheritance? (1Sa 10:2) “When you leave me today, you shall find two men by Raḥĕl’s tomb in the border of Binyamin at Tseltsaḥ, and they shall say to you, ‘The donkeys which you went to look for have been found. And see, your father has left the matters of the donkeys and is worrying about you, saying, “What shall I do for my son?” ’ (1Sa 10:3) “You shall pass on from there, and beyond, and shall come to the terebinth tree of Taḇor. And three men going up to Elohim at Bĕyth Ěl shall find you there, one bearing three young goats, another bearing three loaves of bread, and another bearing a skin of wine. (1Sa 10:4) “And they shall greet you and give you two loaves of bread, which you shall accept from their hand. (1Sa 10:5) “After that; go to the hill of Elohim where the Philistine watch-post is. And it shall be, when you have come there to the city that you shall meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place with a stringed instrument, and a tambourine, and a flute, and a lyre before them, and they are prophesying. (1Sa 10:6) “And the Spirit of יהוה shall come upon you, and you shall prophesy with them and be turned into another man. (1Sa 10:7) “And it shall be, when these signs come to you, do for yourself as your hand finds to do, for Elohim is with you. (1Sa 10:8) “And you shall go down before me to Gilgal. And see, I am coming down to you to slaughter burnt offerings and make peace offerings. Wait seven days; till I come to you, then I shall make known to you what you should do.” (1Sa 10:9) And it came to be, when he had turned his back to go from Shemu’ĕl, that Elohim gave him another heart. And all those signs came on that day. (1Sa 10:10) And they came there to the hill and saw a group of prophets, to meet him. And the Spirit of Elohim came upon him, and he prophesied in their midst. (1Sa 10:11) And it came to be, all who knew him formerly looked and saw that he prophesied among the prophets. So the people said to each other, “What is this that has come upon the son of Qish? Is Sha’ul also among the prophets?” (1Sa 10:12) And a man there answered and said, “And who is their father?” That is why it became a proverb, “Is Sha’ul also among the prophets?” (1Sa 10:13) And when he stopped prophesying, he went to the high place. (1Sa 10:14) And the uncle of Sha’ul asked him and his servant, “Where did you go?” And he said, “To look for the donkeys. And when we saw that they were nowhere to be found, we went to Shemu’ĕl.” (1Sa 10:15) And the uncle of Sha’ul said, “Please inform me what Shemu’ĕl said to you.” (1Sa 10:16) And Sha’ul said to his uncle, “He informed us plainly that the donkeys had been found.” But he did not disclose to him about the matter of the reign, what Shemu’ĕl had said. (1Sa 10:17) And Shemu’ĕl called the people together to יהוה at Mitspah, (1Sa 10:18) and said to the children of Yisra’ĕl, “Thus said יהוה, the Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, ‘I have brought Yisra’ĕl up out of Mitsrayim, and delivered you from the hand of the Mitsrites and from the hand of all reigns and from those who oppressed you.’ (1Sa 10:19) “And today you have rejected your Elohim, who Himself saved you out of all your evils and your distresses. And you have said to Him, ‘No, but set a sovereign over us!’ And now, present yourselves before יהוה by your tribes and by your clans.” (1Sa 10:20) And Shemu’ĕl brought near all the tribes of Yisra’ĕl, and the tribe of Binyamin was taken. (1Sa 10:21) Then he brought near the tribe of Binyamin, by their clans, and the clan of Matri was taken, and Sha’ul son of Qish was taken. And when they sought him, he could not be found. (1Sa 10:22) And they asked again of יהוה, “Has the man come here yet?” And יהוה answered, “See, he has hidden by the baggage.” (1Sa 10:23) And they ran and brought him from there. And he stood in the midst of the people, and he was taller than any of the people, from his shoulders and upwards. (1Sa 10:24) And Shemu’ĕl said to all the people, “Do you see him whom יהוה has chosen, that there is no one like him among all the people?” And all the people shouted and said, “Let the sovereign live!” (1Sa 10:25) And Shemu’ĕl declared to the people the rulings of the reign, and wrote it in a book and placed it before יהוה. And Shemu’ĕl sent all the people away, each to his house. (1Sa 10:26) And Sha’ul went to his house too, to Giḇʽah. And with him went brave men whose hearts Elohim had touched. (1Sa 10:27) But the sons of Beliyaʽal said, “What! Does this one save us?” And they despised him, and brought him no presents. But he kept silent.

These Ammonites sound much like the Palestinians today- following hate and murderous spirits!

(1Sa 11:1) And Naḥash the Ammonite came up and camped against Yaḇĕsh Gilʽaḏ. And all the men of Yaḇĕsh said to Naḥash, “Make a covenant with us, and we shall serve you.” (1Sa 11:2) Then Naḥash the Ammonite answered them, “For this I make a covenant with you, that I dig out all your right eyes, and I shall bring reproach on all Yisra’ĕl.” (1Sa 11:3) And the elders of Yaḇĕsh said to him, “Leave us alone for seven days, so that we send messengers to all the borders of Yisra’ĕl. And then, if there is no one to save us, we shall come out to you.” (1Sa 11:4) And the messengers came to Giḇʽah of Sha’ul and spoke the words in the hearing of the people. And all the people lifted up their voices and wept. (1Sa 11:5) And look, Sha’ul was coming behind the herd from the field. And Sha’ul said, “Why are the people weeping?” And they related to him the words of the men of Yaḇĕsh. (1Sa 11:6) And the Spirit of Elohim came upon Sha’ul mightily as he heard these words, and his displeasure burned greatly. (1Sa 11:7) And he took a yoke of cattle and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the border of Yisra’ĕl by the hands of messengers, saying, “Whoever does not go out with Sha’ul and Shemu’ĕl to battle, let this be done to his cattle.” And the fear of יהוה fell on the people, and they came out as one man. (1Sa 11:8) And he mustered them in Bezeq, and the children of Yisra’ĕl were three hundred thousand, and the men of Yehuḏah thirty thousand. (1Sa 11:9) And they said to the messengers who came, “Say this to the men of Yaḇĕsh Gilʽaḏ, ‘Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you shall have help.’ ” Then the messengers came and informed the men of Yaḇĕsh, and they rejoiced. (1Sa 11:10) So the men of Yaḇĕsh said, “Tomorrow we come out to you, and you shall do to us whatever seems good to you.” (1Sa 11:11) And it came to be, on the next day, that Sha’ul put the people in three companies. And they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch and smote Ammon until the heat of the day. And it came to be that those left were scattered, so that no two of them were left together. (1Sa 11:12) And the people said to Shemu’ĕl, “Who said, ‘shall Sha’ul reign over us?’ Bring the men, so that we put them to death.” (1Sa 11:13) But Sha’ul said, “No man is put to death this day, for today יהוה has wrought deliverance in Yisra’ĕl.” (1Sa 11:14) And Shemu’ĕl said to the people, “Come, and let us go to Gilgal and renew the reign there.” (1Sa 11:15) And all the people went to Gilgal, and there they set up Sha’ul to reign before יהוה in Gilgal, and there they made slaughterings of peace offerings before יהוה. And there Sha’ul rejoiced, and all the men of Yisra’ĕl, greatly. (1Sa 12:1) And Shemu’ĕl said to all Yisra’ĕl, “Look, I have listened to your voice in all that you said to me, and have set a sovereign over you. (1Sa 12:2) “And now, look, the sovereign is walking before you. And I am old and grey, and look, my sons are with you. And I have walked before you from my youth to this day. (1Sa 12:3) “Look, here I am. Witness against me before יהוה and before His anointed: Whose ox have I taken, or whose donkey have I taken, or whom have I oppressed? Whom have I abused, or from whose hand have I received any bribe with which to blind my eyes? – then I restore it to you.” (1Sa 12:4) And they said, “You have not oppressed us or abused us, nor have you taken any bribe from anyone’s hand.” (1Sa 12:5) So he said to them, “יהוה is witness against you, and His anointed is witness today, that you have found naught in my hand.” And they answered, “He is witness.” (1Sa 12:6) And Shemu’ĕl said to the people, “It is יהוה who appointed Mosheh and Aharon, and who brought your fathers up from the land of Mitsrayim. (1Sa 12:7) “And now, stand still, so that I judge you before יהוה concerning all the righteous acts of יהוה which He did to you and your fathers: (1Sa 12:8) “When Yaʽaqoḇ had come to Mitsrayim, and your fathers cried out to יהוה, then יהוה sent Mosheh and Aharon, who brought your fathers out of Mitsrayim and made them dwell in this place. (1Sa 12:9) “But they forgot יהוה their Elohim, so He sold them into the hand of Sisera, commander of the army of Ḥatsor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the sovereign of Mo’aḇ. And they fought against them.

Trouble comes – Baal’s and Easter (Ashtaroth) sex goddesses served!

(1Sa 12:10) “And they cried out to יהוה, and said, ‘We have sinned, because we have forsaken יהוה and served the Baʽals and the Ashtaroth. And now, deliver us from the hand of our enemies, and we serve you.’ (1Sa 12:11) “And יהוה sent Yerubbaʽal, and Beḏan, and Yiphtaḥ, and Shemu’ĕl, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies round about, and you dwelt in safety. (1Sa 12:12) “And when you saw that Naḥash sovereign of the children of Ammon came against you, you said to me, ‘No, but let a sovereign reign over us,’ when יהוה your Elohim was your sovereign. (1Sa 12:13) “And now, here is the sovereign whom you have chosen and whom you have asked. And see, יהוה has set a sovereign over you. (1Sa 12:14) “If you fear יהוה, and shall serve Him and obey His voice, and not rebel against the command of יהוה, then both you and the sovereign who reigns over you shall follow יהוה your Elohim. (1Sa 12:15) “But if you do not obey the voice of יהוה, and shall rebel against the command of יהוה, then the hand of יהוה shall be against you, as it was against your fathers. (1Sa 12:16) “And now, stand and see this great matter which יהוה does before your eyes: (1Sa 12:17) “Is today not the wheat harvest? Let me call to יהוה, so that He sends thunder and rain – know then and see that your evil is great, which you have done in the eyes of יהוה, in asking for yourselves a sovereign.” (1Sa 12:18) And Shemu’ĕl called to יהוה, and יהוה sent thunder and rain that day. And all the people greatly feared יהוה and Shemu’ĕl. (1Sa 12:19) And all the people said to Shemu’ĕl, “Pray for your servants to יהוה your Elohim, that we do not die, for we have added to all our sins this evil of asking for ourselves a sovereign.” (1Sa 12:20) And Shemu’ĕl said to the people, “Do not fear. You have done all this evil. Only, do not turn aside from following יהוה. And you shall serve יהוה with all your heart, (1Sa 12:21) and do not turn aside after worthless matters which do not profit or deliver, for they are worthless. (1Sa 12:22) “For יהוה would not cast away His people, for His great Name’s sake, seeing it has pleased יהוה to make you His people.

Fear YHWH is the warning for the day and hour! Obey Him or be consumed you and your obama-nation!

(1Sa 12:23) “Also, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against יהוה in ceasing to pray for you, but I shall teach you the good and straight way. (1Sa 12:24) “Only fear יהוה, and you shall serve Him in truth with all your heart, for consider what marvels He has done for you. (1Sa 12:25) “But if you persist in doing evil, both you and your sovereign (king-president) are consumed.”

May YHWH bless you and prepare, provide, protect and direct you and your loved ones in these days. Over the next few weeks I should have a new CD and possibly a new DVD about the times and seasons and the prophetic times approaching Planet Earth. This year (2010) will be a year of awakening starting around Aviv one and judgment 6 months later at the Feast of Trumpets 2010 for the harlot church who will not come apart from the paganism we have inherited; as He judges His church first- those that claim they love Him but will not obey Him! The following scriptures address our scattering all over the earth and YHWH’s plans to restore us to His plan and place. (Jer 16:14) “Therefore see, the days are coming,” declares יהוה, “when it is no longer said, ‘יהוה lives who brought up the children of Yisra’ĕl from the land of Mitsrayim (Egypt),’ (Jer 16:15) but, ‘יהוה lives who brought up the children of Yisra’ĕl from the land of the north and from all the lands where He had driven them.’ For I shall bring them back into their land I gave to their fathers. (Jer 16:16) “See, I am sending for many fishermen,” declares יהוה, “and they shall fish them. And after that I shall send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain and every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks. (Jer 16:17) “For my eyes are on all their ways; they have not been hidden from my face, nor has their crookedness been hidden from my eyes. (Jer 16:18) “And first I shall repay double for their crookedness and their sin, because they have defiled my land with the dead bodies of their disgusting matters, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations.” (Jer 16:19) O יהוה, my strength and my stronghold and my refuge, in the day of distress (Jacob’s not the Jew’s only- Troubles) the gentiles shall come to you from the ends of the earth and say, “Our fathers have inherited only falsehood (lies), futility, and there is no value in them.”1 Footnote: 1See Ps. 147:19, Isa. 2:3, Isa. 60:2-3, John 4:22, Rom. 2:20, Rom. 3:2, Rom. 9:4.

Since we all inherited lies and pagan traditions we can come apart from them or partake in her plagues! (Rev 18:2) And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. (Rev 18:3) All nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. (Rev 18:4) And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. (Rev 18:5) Her sins have reached unto heaven, and YHWH has remembered her iniquities.

Let’s make ourselves ready as Yahshua has paid for the harlot bride once who was doing pagan harlotries and He is coming this time for a bride who has made herself ready, one who comes apart from the pagan traditions that got us judged and scattered all over the earth.

Shalom to your home Loved One,
Thurston

Remember! Do remember www.seedtime2harvest.com as we will soon be adding the newest DVD and CD about the times and seasons approaching as we watch for the barley Abiv to determine whether or not there will be an added 30 days (Adar Bet) as this could well determine if rockets fly in Sept/Oct 2010.

Thanks- enemy is confused!

Shabbat Shalom Loved One!

Yesterday I returned to USA to a snowstorm of record proportions in Dallas Texas. Up to 14” in places and DFW airport reported 12’5 inches. So many wonderful brothers and sisters left behind in Africa. I already miss them. They are the Family (Truth-Searchers) in Namibia and throughout South Africa! Thank you so much for your prayers that were throne room directed to confuse the enemy and direct us to produce much fruit for His Kingdom! Last week we had another reminder of YHWH’s Ten Commandments or His Ten Words. We should note that these are not ten suggestions, and when we stand in front of Him we might want to be found having done them and repented where we missed it. Remember also grace is not a license to continue to SIN or do away with or break the Instructions of Moses and the prophets as 1 John explains what sin is defined as by YHWH. (1Jn 3:3) And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure. (1Jn 3:4) Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness (Torahless - without YHWH’s instruction). (1Jn 3:5) You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. (1Jn 3:6) No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him.

Sinai means desert wilderness- time to seek YHWH’s instructions

(Exo 19:2) They set out from Rephiḏim, and had come to the Wilderness of Sinai, and camped in the wilderness. So Yisra’ĕl camped there before the mountain. (Exo 19:3) And Mosheh went up to Elohim, and יהוה called to him from the mountain, saying, “This is what you are to say to the house of Yaʽaqoḇ, and declare to the children of Yisra’ĕl: (Exo 19:4) ‘You have seen what I did to the Mitsrites and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. (Exo 19:5) ‘And now, if you diligently obey my voice, and shall guard my covenant, then you shall be my treasured possession above all the peoples – for all the earth is mine – (Exo 19:6) ‘and you shall be to me a reign of priests and a set-apart nation.’ Those are the words which you are to speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl.” (Exo 19:7) And Mosheh came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which יהוה commanded him. (Exo 19:8) And all the people answered together and said, “All that יהוה has spoken we shall do.” So Mosheh brought back the words of the people to יהוה. (Exo 19:9) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “See, I am coming to you in the thick cloud, so that the people hear when I speak with you, and believe you forever.” And Mosheh reported the words of the people to יהוה. (Exo 19:10) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go to the people and set them apart today and tomorrow. And they shall wash their garments, (Exo 19:11) and shall be prepared by the third day. For on the third day יהוה shall come down upon Mount Sinai before the eyes of all the people. (Exo 19:12) “And you shall make a border for the people all around, saying, ‘Take heed to yourselves that you do not go up to the mountain or touch the border of it. Whoever touches the mountain shall certainly be put to death. (Exo 19:13) ‘Not a hand is to touch it, but he shall certainly be stoned or shot with an arrow, whether man or beast, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, let them come near the mountain.” (Exo 19:14) And Mosheh came down from the mountain to the people and set the people apart, and they washed their garments. (Exo 19:15) And he said to the people, “Be prepared by the third day. Do not come near a wife.”

Thunders of YHWH are not normal! Our camps will tremble also! Come apart from whoredoms and paganism and transgressing His Torah (Instructions) because that is SIN according to 1 John!

(Exo 19:16) And it came to be, on the third day in the morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain. And the sound of the ram’s horn was very loud, and all the people who were in the camp trembled. (Exo 19:17) And Mosheh brought the people out of the camp to meet with Elohim, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. (Exo 19:18) And Mount Sinai was in smoke, all of it, because יהוה descended upon it in fire. And its smoke went up like the smoke of a furnace, and all the mountain trembled exceedingly. (Exo 19:19) And when the blast of the ram’s horn sounded long and became louder and louder, Mosheh spoke, and Elohim answered him by voice. (Exo 19:20) And יהוה came down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain. And יהוה called Mosheh to the top of the mountain, and Mosheh went up. (Exo 19:21) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go down, and warn the people, lest they break through unto יהוה to see, and many of them fall. (Exo 19:22) “And let the priests who come near יהוה set them apart too, lest יהוה break out against them.”

With those thoughts in place, we turn our minds to this week’s Torah study…

Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Mishpatim Ordinances/Judgments

Exodus 21:1-24:18; Jeremiah 34:8-22; Jeremiah 33:25-26;

Matthew 5:33-7:21, 1Samuel Chapters 7, 8, and 9

These RIGHT RULINGS are the foundation of law today (negligence etc)

(Exo 21:1) “These are the right-rulings which you are to set before them: (Exo 21:2) “When you buy a Heḇrew servant, he serves six years, and in the seventh he goes out free, for naught. (Exo 21:3) “If he comes in by himself, he goes out by himself; if he comes in married, then his wife shall go out with him. (Exo 21:4) “If his master has given him a wife, and she has borne him sons or daughters, the wife and her children are her master’s, and he goes out by himself. (Exo 21:5) “And if the servant truly says, ‘I love my master, my wife, and my children, let me not go out free,’ (Exo 21:6) then his master shall bring him before Elohim, and shall bring him to the door, or to the doorpost, and his master shall pierce his ear with an awl. And he shall serve him forever. (Exo 21:7) “And when a man sells his daughter to be a female servant, she does not go out as the male servants do. (Exo 21:8) “If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who has engaged her to himself, then he shall let her be ransomed. He shall have no authority to sell her to a foreign people, because of him deceiving her. (Exo 21:9) “And if he has engaged her to his son, he is to do to her as is the right of daughters. (Exo 21:10) “If he takes another wife, her food, her covering, and her marriage rights are not to be diminished. (Exo 21:11) “And if he does not do these three for her, then she shall go out for naught, without silver. (Exo 21:12) “He who strikes a man so that he dies shall certainly be put to death. (Exo 21:13) “But if he did not lie in wait, but Elohim delivered him into his hand, then I shall appoint for you a place where he is to flee. (Exo 21:14) “But when a man acts presumptuously against his neighbor, to kill him by treachery, you are to take him even from my altar to die. (Exo 21:15) “And he who smites his father or his mother shall certainly be put to death. (Exo 21:16) “And he who kidnaps a man and sells him, or if he is found in his hand, shall certainly be put to death. (Exo 21:17) “And he who curses his father or his mother shall certainly be put to death. (Exo 21:18) “And when men strive together, and one smites the other with a stone or with his fist, and he does not die but is confined to his bed, (Exo 21:19) if he rises again and walks about outside with his staff, then he who smote him shall be innocent. He only pays for lost time and sees to it that he is completely healed. (Exo 21:20) “And when a man smites his male or female servant with a rod, so that he dies under his hand, he shall certainly be punished. (Exo 21:21) “But if he remains alive a day or two, he is not punished; for he is his property. (Exo 21:22) “And when men strive and they shall smite a pregnant woman, and her children come out, yet there is no injury, he shall certainly be punished accordingly as the woman’s husband lays upon him. And he shall give through the judges. (Exo 21:23) “But if there is injury, then you shall give life for life, (Exo 21:24) eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, (Exo 21:25) burn for burn, wound for wound, lash for lash. (Exo 21:26) “And when a man smites the eye of his male or female servant, and destroys it, he is to let him go free for the sake of his eye. (Exo 21:27) “And if he knocks out the tooth of his male or female servant, he is to let him go free for the sake of his tooth. (Exo 21:28) “And when an ox gores a man or a woman to death, then the ox shall certainly be stoned, and its flesh is not eaten, and the owner of the ox is innocent. (Exo 21:29) “However, if the ox was previously in the habit of goring, and its owner has been warned, and he has not kept it confined, so that it has killed a man or a woman, the ox is stoned and its owner also is put to death. (Exo 21:30) “If a sin-covering is laid upon him, then he shall give the ransom of his life, whatever is laid on him. (Exo 21:31) “Whether it has gored a son or gored a daughter, according to this right-ruling it is done to him. (Exo 21:32) “If the ox gores a male or female servant, he is to give to their master thirty sheqels of silver, and the ox is stoned. (Exo 21:33) “And when a man opens a pit, or if a man digs a pit and does not cover it, and an ox or a donkey falls in it, (Exo 21:34) the owner of the pit is to repay, he is to give silver to their owner, and the dead beast is his. (Exo 21:35) “And when the ox of a man smites the ox of his neighbor and it dies, then they shall sell the live ox and divide the silver from it, and also divide the dead ox. (Exo 21:36) “Or if it was known that the ox was previously in the habit of goring, and its owner has not kept it confined, he shall certainly repay ox for ox, while the dead beast is his. (Exo 22:1) “When a man steals an ox or a sheep, and shall slaughter it or sell it, he repays five cattle for an ox and four sheep for a sheep. (Exo 22:2) “If the thief is found breaking in, and he is smitten so that he dies, there is no guilt for his bloodshed. (Exo 22:3) “If the sun has risen on him, there is guilt for his bloodshed, he shall certainly repay. If he has not the means, then he shall be sold for his theft. (Exo 22:4) “If the theft is indeed found alive in his hand, whether it is an ox or donkey or sheep, he repays double. (Exo 22:5) “When a man lets a field or vineyard be grazed bare, and lets loose his livestock, and it feeds in another man’s field, he repays from the best of his own field and the best of his own vineyard. Exo 22:6) “When fire breaks out and spreads to thorn bushes, so that stacked grain, or standing grain, or the field is consumed, he who kindled the fire shall certainly repay. (Exo 22:7) “When a man gives silver or goods to his neighbor to guard them and it is stolen out of the man’s house, if the thief is found, he repays double. (Exo 22:8) “If the thief is not found, then the master of the house shall be brought before Elohim to see whether he has put his hand into his neighbor’s goods. (Exo 22:9) “For every matter of transgression, for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for garment, or for whatever is lost which another claims to be his, let the matter of them both come before Elohim. And whomever Elohim declares wrong repays double to his neighbor. (Exo 22:10) “When a man gives to his neighbor a donkey, or ox, or sheep, or any beast to watch over, and it dies, or is injured, or is driven away while no one is looking, (Exo 22:11) let an oath of יהוה be between them both, that he has not put his hand into his neighbor’s goods. And the owner of it shall accept that, and he does not repay. (Exo 22:12) “But if it is indeed stolen from him, he repays to its owner. (Exo 22:13) “If it is torn to pieces, then let him bring it for evidence, he does not repay what was torn.(Exo 22:14) “And when a man borrows from his neighbor, and it is injured or dies while the owner of it is not present, he shall certainly repay. (Exo 22:15) “But if its owner was with it, he does not repay. If it was hired, he is entitled to the hire. (Exo 22:16) “And when a man entices a maiden who is not engaged, and lies with her, he shall certainly pay the bride-price for her to be his wife. (Exo 22:17) “If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, he pays according to the bride-price of maidens.

How is YHWH going to judge the Harry Potter witchcraft magic- makers of today?

(Exo 22:18) “Do not allow practicers of witchcraft to live. (Exo 22:19) “Anyone lying with a beast shall certainly be put to death. (Exo 22:20) “He who slaughters to a mighty one, except to יהוה only, is put under the ban. (Exo 22:21) “Do not tread down a sojourner or oppress him, for you were sojourners in the land of Mitsrayim. (Exo 22:22) “Do not afflict any widow or fatherless child. (Exo 22:23) “If you do afflict them at all – if they cry out to Me at all, I shall certainly hear their cry, (Exo 22:24) and My wrath shall burn and I shall slay you with the sword, your wives shall be widows and your children fatherless. (Exo 22:25) “If you do lend silver to any of My people, the poor among you, you are not to be like one that lends on interest to him. Do not lay interest on him. (Exo 22:26) “If you take your neighbor’s garment as a pledge at all, you are to return it to him before the sun goes down. (Exo 22:27) “For that is his only covering, it is his garment for his skin. What does he sleep in? And it shall be that when he cries to Me, I shall hear, for I show favor.

This “do not curse” is a tough one for believers in USA and South Africa!

(Exo 22:28) “Do not revile Elohim, nor curse a ruler of your people. (Exo 22:29) “Do not delay giving your harvest and your vintage. Give me the first-born of your sons. (Exo 22:30) “Likewise you are to do with your oxen, with your sheep. It is to be with its mother seven days. On the eighth day you give it to me. (Exo 22:31) “And you are set-apart men to me, and you do not eat any meat which is torn to pieces in the field, you throw it to the dogs. (Exo 23:1) “Do not bring a false report. Do not put your hand with the wrong to be a malicious witness. (Exo 23:2) “Do not follow a crowd to do evil, nor bear witness in strife so as to turn aside after many, to turn aside what is right. (Exo 23:3) “And do not favor a poor man in his strife. (Exo 23:4) “When you meet your enemy’s ox or his donkey going astray, you shall certainly return it to him.

(Exo 23:5) “When you see the donkey of him who hates you lying under its burden, you shall refrain from leaving it to him, you shall certainly help him. (Exo 23:6) “Do not turn aside the right-ruling of your poor in his strife. (Exo 23:7) “Keep yourself far from a false matter, and do not kill the innocent and the righteous, for I do not declare the wrong right. (Exo 23:8) “And do not take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the seeing one and twists the words of the righteous. (Exo 23:9) “And do not oppress a sojourner, as you yourselves know the heart of a sojourner, because you were sojourners in the land of Mitsrayim. (Exo 23:10) “And for six years you are to sow your land, and shall gather its increase, (Exo 23:11) but the seventh year you are to let it rest, and shall leave it, and the poor of your people shall eat. And what they leave, the beasts of the field eat. Do the same with your vineyard and your olive yard.

Note the Sabbath rest commanded is the first of the Feasts of YHWH Note also that YHWH commands we not appear at His commanded Feasts (Moedim-rehearsals/appointments with Him) without our tithe/offerings.

(Exo 23:12) “Six days you are to do your work, and on the seventh day you rest, in order that your ox and your donkey might rest, and the son of your female servant and the sojourner be refreshed. (Exo 23:13) “And in all that I have said to you take heed. And make no mention of the name of other mighty ones, let it not be heard from your mouth. (Exo 23:14) “Three1 times in the year you are to observe a festival to me: Footnote: 1The Festivals of יהוה are grouped in three, for three different times of the year. (Exo 23:15) “Guard the Festival of Unleavened Bread. Seven days you eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month of Aḇiḇ – for in it you came out of Mitsrayim – and do not appear before Me empty-handed; (Exo 23:16) and the Festival of the Harvest, the first-fruits of your labors which you have sown in the field; and the Festival of the Ingathering at the outgoing of the year, when you have gathered in the fruit of your labors from the field. (Exo 23:17) “Three times in the year all your males are to appear before the Master יהוה. (Exo 23:18) “Do not offer the blood of my slaughtering with leavened bread, and the fat of my offering shall not remain until morning. (Exo 23:19) “Bring the first of the first-fruits of your land into the House of יהוה your Elohim.

Note that it does not say do not eat ice-cream or milk with meat! This cooking a young goat in milk was a pagan ritual.

Do not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk. (Exo 23:20) “See, I am sending a Messenger before you to guard you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. (Exo 23:21) “Be on guard before Him and obey His voice. Do not rebel against Him, for He is not going to pardon your transgression, for My Name is in Him. (Exo 23:22) “But if you diligently obey His voice and shall do all that I speak, and then I shall be an enemy to your enemies and a distresser to those who distress you. (Exo 23:23) “For My Messenger shall go before you and shall bring you in to the Amorites and the Ḥittites and the Perizzites and the Kenaʽanites and the Ḥiwwites and the Yeḇusites, and I shall cut them off. (Exo 23:24) “Do not bow down to their mighty ones, nor serve them, nor do according to their works, but without fail overthrow them and without fail break down their pillars.

Some really great promises of YHWH for obedience!

(Exo 23:25) “And you shall serve יהוה your Elohim, and He shall bless your bread and your water. And I shall remove sickness from your midst. (Exo 23:26) “None shall miscarry or be barren in your land. I shall fill the number of your days. (Exo 23:27) “I shall send My fear before you, and cause confusion among all the people to whom you come, and make all your enemies turn their backs to you. (Exo 23:28) “And I shall send hornets before you, which shall drive out the Ḥiwwite, the Kenaʽanite, and the Ḥittite from before you. (Exo 23:29) “I shall not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become a waste and the beast of the field become too numerous for you. (Exo 23:30) “Little by little I shall drive them out from before you, until you have increased, and you inherit the land. (Exo 23:31) “And I shall set your border from the Sea of Reeds to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River, for I shall give the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you. (Exo 23:32) “Do not make a covenant with them nor with their mighty ones. (Exo 23:33) “Let them not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me when you serve their mighty ones, when it becomes a snare to you.” (Exo 24:1) And to Mosheh He said, “Come up to יהוה, you and Aharon, Naḏaḇ and Aḇihu, and seventy of the elders of Yisra’ĕl, and you shall bow yourselves from a distance. (Exo 24:2) “But Mosheh shall draw near to יהוה by himself, and let them not draw near, nor let the people go up with him.” (Exo 24:3) And Mosheh came and related to the people all the Words of יהוה and all the right-rulings. And all the people answered with one voice and said, “All the Words which יהוה has spoken we shall do.” (Exo 24:4) And Mosheh wrote down all the Words of יהוה, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar at the foot of the mountain, and twelve standing columns for the twelve tribes of Yisra’ĕl. (Exo 24:5) And he sent young men of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and they offered burnt offerings and slaughtered peace slaughterings of bulls to יהוה. (Exo 24:6) And Mosheh took half the blood and put it in basins and half the blood he sprinkled on the altar. (Exo 24:7) And he took the Book of the Covenant and read in the hearing of the people. And they said, “All that יהוה has spoken we shall do, and obey.” (Exo 24:8) And Mosheh took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, and said, “See, the blood of the covenant which יהוה has made with you concerning all these Words.” (Exo 24:9) And Mosheh went up, also Aharon, Naḏaḇ, and Aḇihu, and seventy of the elders of Yisra’ĕl, (Exo 24:10) and they saw the Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, and under His feet like a paved work of sapphire stone, and like the heavens for brightness. (Exo 24:11) Yet He did not stretch out His hand against the chiefs of the children of Yisra’ĕl! And they saw Elohim, and they ate and drank. (Exo 24:12) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Come up to Me on the mountain and be there, while I give you tablets of stone, and the Torah and the command which I have written, to teach them.” (Exo 24:13) And Mosheh arose with his assistant Yehoshua, and Mosheh went up to the mountain of Elohim. (Exo 24:14) And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we come back to you. And see, Aharon and Ḥur are with you. Whoever has matters let him go to them.” (Exo 24:15) And Mosheh went up into the mountain, and a cloud covered the mountain. (Exo 24:16) And the esteem of יהוה dwelt on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. And on the seventh day He called to Mosheh out of the midst of the cloud. (Exo 24:17) And the appearance of the esteem of יהוה was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain, before the eyes of the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Exo 24:18) And Mosheh went into the midst of the cloud and went up into the mountain. And it came to be that Mosheh was on the mountain forty days and forty nights. (Jer 34:8) The word which came to Yirmeyahu from יהוה, after Sovereign Tsiḏqiyahu had made a covenant with all the people who were at Yerushalayim to proclaim release to them: (Jer 34:9) that everyone was to set free his male and female slave, the Heḇrew man and the Heḇrew woman, no one was to keep a Yehuḏite, his brother, enslaved. (Jer 34:10) And when all the heads and all the people who had come into the covenant heard that each one was to set free his male and female slaves, and not keep them enslaved any longer, they obeyed and released them. (Jer 34:11) But afterward they changed their minds and made the male and female slaves return, whom they had set free, and brought them into subjection as male and female slaves. (Jer 34:12) Therefore the word of יהוה came to Yirmeyahu from יהוה, saying, (Jer 34:13) “Thus said יהוה the Elohim of Yisra’ĕl, ‘I Myself made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Mitsrayim, out of the house of bondage, saying, (Jer 34:14) “At the end of seven years each one should set free his Heḇrew brother, who has been sold to him. And when he has served you six years, you shall let him go free from you.” But your fathers did not obey me nor incline their ear. (Jer 34:15) ‘And you recently turned and did what was right in my eyes, each man proclaiming release to his neighbor. And you made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name. (Jer 34:16) ‘But you turned back and profaned My Name, and each one of you took back his male and female slaves, whom he had set free, at their pleasure, and brought them into subjection, to be your male and female slaves.’ (Jer 34:17) “Therefore, thus said יהוה; ‘You have not obeyed me in proclaiming release, each one to his brother and each one to his neighbor. See, I am proclaiming release to you,’ declares יהוה, ‘to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the scarcity of food! And I shall make you a horror to all reigns of the earth. (Jer 34:18) ‘And I shall give the men who are transgressing my covenant, who have not established the words of the covenant which they made before Me, when they cut the calf in two and passed between the parts of it: (Jer 34:19) the heads of Yehuḏah, and the heads of Yerushalayim, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land who passed between the parts of the calf. (Jer 34:20) ‘And I shall give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who seek their life. And their corpses shall be for food to the birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth. (Jer 34:21) ‘And I shall give Tsiḏqiyahu sovereign of Yehuḏah and his heads into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life, and into the hand of the sovereign of Baḇel’s army that has withdrawn from you. (Jer 34:22) ‘See, I am commanding,’ declares יהוה, ‘and shall bring them back to this city, and they shall fight against it and take it and burn it with fire. And I shall make the cities of Yehuḏah a ruin without inhabitant.’ ” (Jer 33:25) “Thus said יהוה, ‘If My covenant is not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the laws of the heavens and earth, (Jer 33:26) then I would also reject the descendants of Yaʽaqoḇ and Dawiḏ My servant, so that I should not take of his descendants to be rulers over the descendants of Aḇraham, Yitsḥaq, and Yaʽaqoḇ. For I shall turn back their captivity, and have compassion on them.’ ”

Renewed Covenant; Keeping the Torah Instructions of YHWH by Spirit- not acts only! A much more diligent requirement!

(Mat 5:33) “Again, you heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to יהוה.’ (Mat 5:34) “But I say to you, do not swear at all, neither by the heaven, because it is Elohim’s throne; (Mat 5:35) nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Yerushalayim, for it is the city of the great Sovereign; (Mat 5:36) nor swear by your head because you are not able to make one hair white or black. (Mat 5:37) “But let your word ‘Yea’ be ‘Yea,’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ And what goes beyond these is from the wicked one. (Mat 5:38) “You heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,’ (Mat 5:39) but I say to you, do not resist the wicked. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. (Mat 5:40) “And he who wishes to sue you and take away your inner garment, let him have your outer garment as well. (Mat 5:41) “And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. (Mat 5:42) “Give to him who asks of you, and from him, who wishes to borrow from you, do not turn away. (Mat 5:43) “You heard that it was said,1 ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ Footnote: 1Hate your enemy was “said,” not “written.” (Mat 5:44) “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those cursing you, do good to those hating you, and pray for those insulting you and persecuting you, (Mat 5:45) so that you become sons of your Father in the heavens. Because He makes His sun rise on the wicked and on the good and sends rain on the righteous and on the unrighteous.1 Footnote: 1Lk. 6:35, Acts 14:16-17. (Mat 5:46) “For if you love those loving you, what rewards have you? Are the tax collectors not doing the same too? (Mat 5:47) “And if you greet your brothers only, what do you do more than others? Are the tax collectors not doing so too? (Mat 5:48) “Therefore, be rfect,1 as your Father in the heavens is perfect. Footnote: 1Ex. 17:1, Ps. 119:1, 1 John 2:5, Heb. 6:1. (Mat 6:1) “Beware of doing your kind deeds before men, in order to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in the heavens. (Mat 6:2) “Thus, when you do a kind deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do, in the congregations and in the streets, to be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have their reward. (Mat 6:3) “But when you do a kind deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, (Mat 6:4) so that your kind deed shall be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret shall Himself reward you openly. (Mat 6:5) “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the congregations and on the corners of the streets, to be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have their reward. (Mat 6:6) “But you, when you pray, go into your room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place. And your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly. (Mat 6:7) “And when praying, do not keep on babbling like the gentiles. For they think that they shall be heard for their many words. (Mat 6:8) “Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.

This prayer we must remember and do! This is the foundation of praying!

(Mat 6:9) “This, then, is the way you should pray: ‘Our Father who is in the heavens, let Your Name be set-apart, (Mat 6:10) let your reign come, let Your desire be done on earth as it is in heaven. (Mat 6:11) ‘Give us today our daily bread. (Mat 6:12) ‘And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. (Mat 6:13) ‘And do not lead us into trial,1 but deliver us from the wicked one – because Yours is the reign and the power and the esteem, forever. Amĕn.’ Footnote: 1See 26:41. (Mat 6:14) “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father shall also forgive you. (Mat 6:15) “But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither shall your Father forgive your trespasses.

We MUST turn to Him now in fasting AND prayer! Don’t do this and you will pay much in the days ahead! Note: it’s WHEN not IF!

(Mat 6:16) “When you fast do not be sad-faced like the hypocrites. For they disfigure their faces so that they appear to be fasting to men. Truly, I say to you, they have their reward. (Mat 6:17) “But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face (Mat 6:18) so that you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in the secret place. And your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly. (Mat 6:19) “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, (Mat 6:20) but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. (Mat 6:21) “For where your treasure is, there your heart shall be also. (Mat 6:22) “The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, all your body shall be enlightened. (Mat 6:23) “But if your eye is evil,1 all your body shall be darkened. If, then, the light that is within you is darkness, how great is that darkness! Footnote: 1This is a Heḇrew idiom – a good eye means to be generous, while an evil eye means to be stingy. (Mat 6:24) “No one is able to serve two masters, for either he shall hate the one and love the other, or else he shall cleave to the one and despise the other. You are not able to serve Elohim and mammon.1 Footnote: 1Personification of wealth. (Mat 6:25) “Because of this I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you shall eat or drink, or about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than the food and the body more than the clothing? (Mat 6:26) “Look at the birds of the heaven, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into storehouses, yet your heavenly Father does feed them. Are you not worth more than they? (Mat 6:27) “And which of you by worrying is able to add one cubit to his life’s span? (Mat 6:28) “So why do you worry about clothing? Note well the lilies of the field, how they grow. They neither toil nor spin, (Mat 6:29) and I say to you that even Shelomoh in all his esteem was not dressed like one of these. (Mat 6:30) “But if Elohim so clothes the grass of the field, which exists today, and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more you, O you of little belief? (Mat 6:31) “Do not worry then, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ (Mat 6:32) “For all these the gentiles seek for. And your heavenly Father knows that you need all these. (Mat 6:33) “But seek first the reign of Elohim, and His righteousness, and all these matters shall be added to you. (Mat 6:34) “Do not, then, worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow shall have its own worries. Each day has enough evil of itself.

We are NOT to sit in the lawgivers chair- we are not to judge another’s servant!

(Mat 7:1) “Do not judge, lest you be judged. (Mat 7:2) “For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged. And with the same measure you use, it shall be measured to you. (Mat 7:3) “And why do you look at the splinter in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the plank in your own eye? (Mat 7:4) “Or how is it that you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the splinter out of your eye,’ and see, a plank is in your own eye? (Mat 7:5) “Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you shall see clearly to remove the splinter out of your brother’s eye.

Have you and I done this….we are not to serve those who will not believe- walk away from those “believers who believe not” dust your feet off and walk away to those who will listen and obey- She’ mah O Israel!

(Mat 7:6) “Do not give what is set-apart to the dogs, nor throw your pearls before the pigs, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces. (Mat 7:7) “Ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you. (Mat 7:8) “Everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it shall be opened. (Mat 7:9) “Or is there a man among you who, if his son asks for bread, shall give him a stone? (Mat 7:10) “Or if he asks for a fish, shall he give him a snake? (Mat 7:11) “If you then, being wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father who is in the heavens give what is good to those who ask Him! (Mat 7:12) “Therefore, whatever you wish men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Torah and the Prophets. (Mat 7:13) “Enter in through the narrow gate! Because the gate is wide – and the way is broad – that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in through it. (Mat 7:14) “Because the gate is narrow and the way is hard pressed1 which leads to life, and there are few who find it. Footnote: 1Or the way is afflicted. (Mat 7:15) “But beware of the false prophets,1 who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are savage wolves. Footnote: 1See v. 23

This is how we know that they are brothers and sisters in Messiah- they walk in love and produce fruit for His Kingdom- not their own Kingdom!

(Mat 7:16) “By their fruits you shall know them. Are grapes gathered from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? (Mat 7:17) “So every good tree yields good fruit, but a rotten tree yields wicked fruit. (Mat 7:18) “A good tree is unable to yield wicked fruit, and a rotten tree to yield good fruit. (Mat 7:19) “Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. (Mat 7:20) “So then, by their fruits you shall know them – (Mat 7:21) “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Master, Master,’ shall enter into the reign of the heavens, but he who is doing the desire of my Father in the heavens.

Blessing of the ARK of YHWH! Put away the Ashtaroth (Easters)

(1Sa 7:1) And the men of Qiryath Yeʽarim came and took the ark of יהוה, and brought it into the house of Aḇinaḏaḇ on the hill, and set apart Elʽazar his son to guard the ark of יהוה. (1Sa 7:2) And it came to be, from the day that the ark remained in Qiryath Yeʽarim, that the time increased, it came to be twenty years. And all the house of Yisra’ĕl lamented after יהוה. (1Sa 7:3) And Shemu’ĕl spoke to all the house of Yisra’ĕl, saying, “If you return to יהוה with all your hearts, then put away the foreign mighty ones and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts for יהוה, and serve Him only, so that He delivers you from the hand of the Philistines.” (1Sa 7:4) And the children of Yisra’ĕl put away the Baʽals and Ashtaroth, and served יהוה only. (1Sa 7:5) And Shemu’ĕl said, “Gather all Yisra’ĕl to Mitspah and let me pray to יהוה for you.” (1Sa 7:6) And they gathered to Mitspah and drew water, and poured it out before יהוה. And they fasted that day, and said there, “We have sinned against יהוה.” Shemu’ĕl rightly ruled the children of Yisra’ĕl at Mitspah. (1Sa 7:7) When the Philistines heard that the children of Yisra’ĕl had gathered together at Mitspah the princes of the Philistines went up against Yisra’ĕl. And the children of Yisra’ĕl heard of it, and were afraid of the Philistines. (1Sa 7:8) And the children of Yisra’ĕl said to Shemu’ĕl “Do not cease to cry out to יהוה our Elohim for us that He would save us from the hand of the Philistines.” (1Sa 7:9) And Shemu’ĕl took a suckling lamb and offered it as a burnt offering, completely, to יהוה. Shemu ’ĕl cried out to יהוה for Yisra’ ĕl and יהוה answered him. (1Sa 7:10) And it came to be, as Shemu’ĕl offered up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Yisra’ĕl. יהוה thundered with a great noise on that day on the Philistines, and troubled them, and they were smitten before Yisra’ĕl. (1Sa 7:11) And the men of Yisra’ĕl went out from Mitspah and pursued the Philistines, and drove them back as far as below Bĕyth ar. (1Sa 7:12) And Shemu’ĕl took a stone and set it up between Mitspah and Shĕn, and called its name Eḇen Haʽĕzer, saying, “Thus far יהוה has helped us.” (1Sa 7:13) Thus the Philistines were humbled, and no longer came into the border of Yisra’ĕl. And the hand of יהוה was against the Philistines all the days of Shemu’ĕl. (1Sa 7:14) The cities which the Philistines had taken from Yisra’ĕl were returned to Yisra’ĕl, from Eqron to Gath. And Yisra’ĕl recovered its border from the hands of the Philistines. And there was peace between Yisra’ĕl and the Amorites. (1Sa 7:15) And Shemu’ĕl rightly ruled Yisra’ĕl all the days of his life, (1Sa 7:16) and each year he made the rounds of Bĕyth Ěl, and Gilgal, and Mitspah, and rightly ruled Yisra’ĕl in all those places. (1Sa 7:17) Then he returned to Ramah, for his home was there. And there he rightly ruled Yisra’ĕl, and there he built an altar to יהוה.

Bad choice! Just because they are blood doesn’t guarantee humility to rule!

(1Sa 8:1) And it came to be, when Shemu’ĕl was old, that he made his sons rulers over Yisra’ĕl. (1Sa 8:2) And the name of his first-born was Yo’ĕl, and the name of his second, Aḇiyah, rulers in Be’ĕrsheḇa. (1Sa 8:3) But his sons did not walk in his ways, and turned aside after own gain, and took bribes, and twisted right-ruling. (1Sa 8:4) And all the elders of Yisra’ĕl gathered together and came to Shemu’ĕl at Ramah, (1Sa 8:5) and said to him, “Look, you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint for us a sovereign to rule us like all the nations.” (1Sa 8:6) But the word was evil in the eyes of Shemu’ĕl when they said, “Give us a sovereign to rule us.” So Shemu’ĕl prayed to יהוה. (1Sa 8:7) And יהוה said to Shemu’ĕl, “Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me from reigning over them. (1Sa 8:8) “According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Mitsrayim, even to this day – forsaking Me and serving other mighty ones – so they are doing to you too. (1Sa 8:9) “And now, listen to their voice, but you shall certainly warn them, and shall make known to them the ruling of the sovereign who does reign over them.” (1Sa 8:10) And Shemu’ĕl spoke all the words of יהוה to the people who asked him for a sovereign, (1Sa 8:11) and said, “This is the ruling of the sovereign who does reign over you: He shall take your sons and appoint them for his own chariots and to be his horsemen, and they shall run before his chariots, (1Sa 8:12) and appoint commanders over his thousands and commanders over his fifties, or to plough his ground and reap his harvest, or to make his weapons, and equipment for his chariots. (1Sa 8:13) “And your daughters he is going to take to be perfumers, and cooks, and bakers. (1Sa 8:14) “And the best of your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive-trees he is going to take and give them to his servants. (1Sa 8:15) “And a tenth of your grain and your vintage he is going to take and give it to his officers and servants. (1Sa 8:16) “And your male servants and your female servants and your best young men and your donkeys he is going to take and use for his own work. (1Sa 8:17) “A tenth of your sheep he is going to take, and you are to be his servants. (1Sa 8:18) “And you shall cry out in that day because of your sovereign whom you have chosen for yourselves, but יהוה is not going to answer you in that day.” (1Sa 8:19) However, the people refused to listen to the voice of Shemu’ĕl, and said, “No, but let a sovereign be over us. (1Sa 8:20) Then we shall be, we also, like all the nations, and our sovereign shall rule us and go out before us and fight our battles.” (1Sa 8:21) And Shemu’ĕl heard all the words of the people, and he repeated them in the hearing of יהוה. (1Sa 8:22) And יהוה said to Shemu’ĕl, “Listen to their voice, and make them a sovereign.” And Shemu’ĕl said to the men of Yisra’ĕl, “Each of you go to his city.” (1Sa 9:1) And there was a man of Binyamin whose name was Qish, son of Aḇi’ĕl, son of Tseror, son of Beḵorath, son of Aphiyaḥ, a Binyamite, a mighty man of power. (1Sa 9:2) And he had a son whose name was Sha’ul, young and handsome. And there was not a more handsome man than he among the children of Yisra’ĕl, taller than any of the people by the shoulders and upwards. (1Sa 9:3) And the donkeys of Qish, father of Sha’ul, were lost. And Qish said to his son Sha’ul, “Please take one of the servants with you, and arise, go seek the donkeys.” (1Sa 9:4) And he passed through the mountains of Ephrayim and through the land of Shalishah, but they did not find them. Then they passed through the land of Shaʽalim, but they were not. Then he passed through the land of the Binyamites, but they did not find them. (1Sa 9:5) They came to the land of Tsuph, and Sha’ul said to his servant who was with him, “Come, let us turn back, lest my father stops thinking about the donkeys and become worried about us.” (1Sa 9:6) And he said to him, “See, there is in this city a man of Elohim, and the man is esteemed. All that he says comes true, without fail. Now, let us go there. It could be that he shows us the way to go.” (1Sa 9:7) And Sha’ul said to his servant, “But look, if we go, what do we bring the man? For the bread in our bags is all gone, and there is no present to bring to the man of Elohim. What do we have?” (1Sa 9:8) And the servant answered Sha’ul again and said, “Look, I have here at hand one fourth of a sheqel of silver. And I shall give that to the man of Elohim, and he shall make known to us our way.” (1Sa 9:9) Formerly in Yisra’ĕl when a man went to inquire of Elohim, he spoke thus, “Come, let us go to the seer,” for the prophet of today was formerly called a seer. (1Sa 9:10) And Sha’ul said to his servant, “Your word is good. Come, let us go.” And they went to the city where the man of Elohim was. (1Sa 9:11) As they went up the hill to the city, they met some young women going out to draw water, and said to them, “Is the seer here?” (1Sa 9:12) And they answered them and said, “He is. Look, ahead of you. Hurry now, for he came to this city today, for the people have an offering on the high place today. (1Sa 9:13) “As you come into the city, you are going to find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. For the people do not eat until he comes, for he blesses the slaughtering, afterward they who are invited eat. And now, go up, for you should find him about this time.” (1Sa 9:14) And they went up to the city. They were coming into the midst of the city, and saw Shemu’ĕl coming out toward them to go up to the high place. (1Sa 9:15) And יהוה had revealed to Shemu’ĕl in his ear the day before Sha’ul came, saying, (1Sa 9:16) “At this time tomorrow I shall send you a man from the land of Binyamin, and you shall anoint him leader over My people Yisra’ĕl, and he shall save My people from the hand of the Philistines. For I have seen My people, because their cry has come to me.” (1Sa 9:17) And when Shemu’ĕl saw Sha’ul, יהוה said to him, “See, the man of whom I spoke to you. Let this one govern my people.” (1Sa 9:18) And Sha’ul drew near to Shemu’ĕl in the gate, and said, “Please inform me, where is the house of the seer?” (1Sa 9:19) And Shemu’ĕl answered Sha’ul and said, “I am the seer. Go up before me to the high place, for you shall eat with me today. And tomorrow I shall let you go and make known to you all that is in your heart. (1Sa 9:20) “As for your donkeys that were lost three days ago, do not set your heart on them, for they have been found. And on whom is all the desire of Yisra’ĕl? Is it not on you and on your entire father’s house?” (1Sa 9:21) And Sha’ul answered and said, “Am I not a Binyamite – of the smallest of the tribes of Yisra’ĕl, and my clan the least of all the clans of the tribe of Binyamin? Why then do you speak like this to me?” (1Sa 9:22) And Shemu’ĕl took Sha’ul and his servant and brought them into the hall, and gave to them a place at the head of those who were invited, and there were about thirty men. (1Sa 9:23) And Shemu’ĕl said to the cook, “Bring the portion which I gave you, of which I told you to set it aside.” (1Sa 9:24) And the cook brought out the thigh with its upper part and set it before Sha’ul. And Shemu’ĕl said, “See what was kept back. It was set aside for you. Eat, for it has been kept for you for this appointed time, saying, I have invited the people.” And Sha’ul ate with Shemu’ĕl on that day. (1Sa 9:25) And they came down from the high place into the city, and Shemu’ĕl spoke with Sha’ul on the roof. (1Sa 9:26) And they rose early. And it came to be about the dawning of the day that Shemu’ĕl called to Sha’ul on the roof, saying, “Rise, so that I send you on your way.” And Sha’ul rose, and both of them went outside, he and Shemu’ĕl. (1Sa 9:27) As they were walking toward the edge of the city, Shemu’ĕl said to Sha’ul, “Say to the servant to go on ahead of us.” And he went on. “But you stand here a moment, so that I let you hear the word of Elohim.”

Precious family, it is approaching the Day of YHWH, let us be sober and alert, watch and pray and keep our garments on, that we have righteous robes or covering for DOING the works of Yahshua! (Rev 16:15) (Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walks naked, and they see his shame.) (1Pe 4:7) The end of all things is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer. (1Pe 4:8) Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. (1Pe 4:9) Be hospitable to one another without complaint. (1Pe 4:10) As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of YHWH. (1Pe 4:11) Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of YHWH; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which YHWH supplies; so that in all things YHWH may be glorified through Messiah Yahshua, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. (Rev 19:7) "Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready." Next we see that the righteous acts of believers actually doing the gospel is what makes His bride ready with wedding garments: (Rev 19:8) It was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. (Rev 19:9) Then he *said to me, "Write, 'Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.'" And he *said to me, "These are true words of YHWH." Lastly, we should pay attention to the King at the wedding Feast showing us to be clothed orb e thrown out! (Mat 22:11) "But when the king came in to look over the dinner guests, he saw a man there who was not dressed in wedding clothes, (Mat 22:12) and he *said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here without wedding clothes?' And the man was speechless. (Mat 22:13) "Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.' (Mat 22:14) "For many are called, but few are chosen."

May YHWH draw you and your loved ones to walk in His compassion and power; and to actually do His word on the earth as we become the bride that has made herself ready! Thanks for your marvelous throne directed prayers that the enemy be confused and we run with the truth of Torah TRUTH (Moses and the Prophets) and Elijah SPIRIT (repentance and power of the Holt Spirit)! Let’s be about our Father’s business!

Shalom to your home loved one!
