*Time has been set back one year to adjust for House of Yudah's membership into the UN in 1949 CE. Originally I had the time set at 1948 CE when they became a nation, but I see now that they did not put themselves under the Babylonian king’s thumb until 1949 CE. In Yirmiyah 25:12 and Daniy'Yah 9:2, YaHVeH has established a 70 year time line for the king of Babylon to be destroyed.


1 Corinthians: 13:12:  For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

 

**I updated chapter five due to understanding revealed while I was producing YouTube Christmas slide presentation.

 

I do not have all understanding; if what I say is in error with the Rabbi YaHViH`s Word, please correct me with HIS Word (T’hiyliym/Psalm:141:5), in the love of Yahshua the Mashiyach.


**I don’t believe the King James Version of scriptures to be the best translation, unfortunately it was the translation I was raised up on and what most in the United States of America have been raised up on in my generation, and that is the only reason I continue to use this version. I’m trying to come from an understanding that others can relate to and, I trust, eventually come out of through increased knowledge (Daniel 12:4) we have received in these last days and correct the blasphemous names, titles and words that have been inserted into YaHVeH’s/ יהוה written Word. I cannot speak Hebrew/Iybriy or write it, so, I have to use the resources available to me to gain academic understanding of YaHVeH’s Word, and than rely on YaHVeH’s Ruach to give me the Ruach/unseen/hidden understanding as I grow in the favor and knowledge of our Rabbi/Iyshiy Yahvshua/ יהושׁוּע/Yahvsha/ יהושׁע the Mashiyach (2 Kepha 3:18). I will use other English translation of Scripture but will also edit them to remove the blasphemous names, words and titles that have been inserted and replace them with the Iybriyiym/Ee-bree-eem with a forward slash “/” to give English translation or other forms of pronunciation.


Here are some general phrases found in the King James Version of Scriptures the Word of YaHVeH uses to reveal end time events: “latter days, at that time, in the time of their visitation, behold the day’s come, in that day, it shall come to pass, Ya’akob’s Trouble, Great Tribulation, in the day of affliction, The Rabbi’s Day, Thus said YaHVeH, YaHVeH has spoken, Hear the Word of YaHVeH, Hear O Yisrael, Hear O shamayim, give ear O earth, Therefore hear, all you nations/goyiym, and know, O congregation, Hear now, O house of Yisrael…etc…


Page 2


YaHVeH’s written Word is for all time; it has its fulfillment in the pass, present and days ahead (Yashayah 42:9; Revelation 1:8). There will be a time when it has been totally fulfilled (2 Kepha 3:10) and I suppose, there will be a new book written, when the New Shamayim and New Eretz/Earth is come (Rev. 21:1).

 

**Understand in the KJV when you see “LORD” in all capital letters YaHVeH’s name is being covered up. Also the English translations will us a “J” to replace the sound of the Iybriy letter י, which is pronounced “Yud/Yod.” There is no “J” sound in Iybriy/Hebrew.  The letter “J” was introduced into the English language over five hundred years ago. So when you see a name like “James” it was originally written “Yames”. When you see “LORD” or “GOD” in all capitals the name of EL Shaddai has been written out. It will usually be “Yehovah” or “Yehovih”; I spell it in English Yahveh or Yahvih.  I have edited the KJV to remove the blasphemous names, words and titles that the “Mother of Harlots” / Roman Catholic in the west, Christian Orthodoxy in the east (and from these two horns do the Protestants/Harlots come from) has violently forced on the entire world to use (Rev. 13:11). There is no doubt there has been and is an intentional covering up of YaHVeH and HIS Ben’s name in scripture, unfortunately it began primarily through the very people HE favored, the children of Yisrael, and the disobedient continue to do it to this very day (Hoshayah/Hoshea 2:16-17; Yashayah 40:25; 42:8; 43:22; 46:5).


**You will notice also when I edited the KJV that I will spell the FATHER’s name (YaHVeH) and the pronouns describing HIM with all upper case letters and HIS Ben’s name (Yahshua) and pronouns only with the first letter in upper case. This is to distinguish as Yahshua the Messiyah said him-self who is greater (Yahvchanan/Yohn 5:19, 30, 36; 8:28).

 

05/21/6993* [5772] 7th day of the week [08/11/12]

 

You will also notice that I will spell some names with the English letter “v” for the “vav” sound of the Iybriy/Hebrew letter ו and some with the English letter “u” for the “hoo” sound of the Iybriy letter that is the same as the Iybriy letter וּ but with a dot to the left side center of it; I’m using the computer scripture program E-Sword to compare the English word used to translate from the Iybriy; the reason I do this is because the KJV has generically written in the same English word to translate a different Iybriy word used in the scriptures, which can cause the verse to have an entirely different understanding. What I have notice while using E-sword program is that even though certain names don’t have the dot to the left center the author of the program will pronounce the name “ho”, instead of “vav”; until my understanding grows in this area I can only believe that the author has made an error, which has caused me some confusion when spelling these Iybriy names to English. For now on until I find out otherwise I will spell the Iybriy names without the dot to the left of it with the English letter “v” for the “vav” sound; and the Iybriy names with the dot to the left I will spell with the English letter “u” for the “hoo” sound.

From E-Sword Strong’s Hebrew Concordance edited to remove blasphemous names, word, titles and to give a more Iybriy/Hebrew understanding:

 

H3068

יהוה

Yahveh

Yah--vay

From H1961; (the) self Existent or eternal; YaHVeH/YaHVaH/YaHWaH/YaHWeH/YaHUaH, Yahudiym national name of Elohiym: - YaHVeH, the Rabbi/Master. Compare H3050, H3069.

 

 

H3069

יהוה

Yahvih

Yah-vee'

A variation of H3068 (used after H136, and pronounced by Yudiym as H430, in order to prevent the repetition of the same sound, since they elsewhere pronounce H3068 as H136): - Elohiym.

 

The ALL MIGHTIES name is NOT pronounced “Jehovah” or “Yehovah”! In this form you have an entirely different meaning name! From E-sword you will find the root of this name comes from:

 

H1942

הוּה

havvâh

Hav-vaw'

From H1933 (in the sense of eagerly coveting and rushing upon; by implication of falling); desire; also ruin: - calamity, iniquity, mischief, mischievous (thing), naughtiness, naughty, noisome, perverse thing, substance, very wickedness.

 

H1943

הוה

hôvâh

Ho-vaw'

Another form for H1942; ruin: - mischief.

 

I will usually spell HIS name the way it sounds in English “YaHVeH”. I remove the “o” or “u”. If you read T’hiyliym/Psalm 68:4 you will see the contracted form of YaHVeH’s name is used:


Page 4


T’hiyliym/Psalm 68:4:  Sing7891 unto Elohiym,430 sing praises2167 to HIS name:8034 extol5549 HIM that rides7392 upon the arabah6160 by HIS name8034 YAH,3050 and rejoice5937 before6440 HIM.

 

H3050

יהּ

Yâhh

yaw

Contracted for H3068, and meaning the same; Yah, the sacred name: - Yah, the Rabbi, most vehement. Cp. names in “-iah,” “-jah.”

 

I have been debating in my mind whether to say and spell HIS name “YaHVaH” but I will continue to pray and research this subject.

 

Now when you see “Lord” with a capital “L” and lower case “ord” in the KJV you are seeing the title “Adonai” or “Adonay”, which is a corruption and name of a pagan idol:

 

H136

אדני

'ădônây

ad-o-noy'

An emphatic form of H113; the Lord (used as a proper name of Elohiym only) : - (my) Lord.



This is from the 2001 Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia:

 

In Greek mythology, Adonis was a handsome young shepherd loved by Aphrodite. The offspring of a love affair between King Cinyras of Cyprus and his daughter Myrrha, Adonis was born from the trunk of the myrrh tree into which his mother had been changed by the gods. Aphrodite left the infant Adonis in the care of Persephone, the queen of the underworld, who also fell in love with him. While hunting, Adonis wounded a wild boar, which turned on him and killed him. Aphrodite pleaded that he be restored to her, but Zeus decided that both goddesses should share him for eternity: Adonis would spend the spring and summer with Aphrodite and the rest of the year with Persephone in the underworld. The anemone, the wild flower that each year blooms briefly and then dies, is said to have sprung from his blood. Adonis, imported probably from the Phoenicians, came to be revered as a dying-and-rising god. Athenians held Adonia, a yearly festival representing his death and resurrection, in midsummer.

I replace “Lord” and “Adonay” with “Rabbi”, because of there idolatries roots. Rabbi comes from the Hebrew word:

 

G4461

ῥαββί

rhabbi

hrab-bee'

Of Hebrew origin [H7227] with pronominal suffix; my master, that is, Rabbi, as an official title of respect: - Master, Rabbi.

 

H7227

רב

rab

rab

By contraction from H7231; abundant (in quantity, size, age, number, rank, quality): - (in) abound (-undance, -ant, -antly), captain, elder, enough, exceedingly, full, great (-ly, man, one), increase, long (enough, [time]), (do, have) many (-ifold, things, a time), ([ship-]) master, mighty, more, (too, very) much, multiply (-tude), officer, often [-times], plenteous, populous, prince, process [of time], suffice (-ient).

**I believe you might also use the title “Iyshiy” pronounced Ee-shee in English to address the Messiyah of Yisrael as Hoshea/Hoshayah foretold:

 

Hoshea 2:16 And it shall beH1961 at thatH1931 day,H3117 saithH5002 the LORD,H3068 that thou shalt callH7121 me Iyshiy;H376 and shalt callH7121 me noH3808 moreH5750 Baali.H1180

Hoshea 2:17  For I will take awayH5493 (H853) the namesH8034 of BaalimH1168 out of her mouth,H4480 H6310 and they shall noH3808 moreH5750 be rememberedH2142 by their name.H8034


H376

אישׁ

'ı̂ysh

eesh

Contracted for H582 (or perhaps rather from an unused root meaning to be extant); a man as an individual or a male person; often used as an adjunct to a more definite term (and in such cases frequently not expressed in translation.) : - also, another, any (man), a certain, + champion, consent, each, every (one), fellow, [foot-, husband-] man, (good-, great, mighty) man, he, high (degree), him (that is), husband, man [-kind], + none, one, people, person, + steward, what (man) soever, whoso (-ever), worthy. Compare H802.

Remember the Word of YaHVeH tells us not to mention the names of other elohiym out of our mouth. Understand there is a process of teaching that believers must go through in order to expose this sin and error that has been perpetrated on the Body of Yahshua. So it is out of necessity that believers be shown these errors so that they can repent, avoid and come out of Babylon (Rev. 17:3; 18:4):

 

Shemoth/Exodus: 23:13: And in all things that I have said to you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other elohiym, neither let it be heard out of your mouth. 

 

The title “Lord” comes from “Baal”:

 

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: Ba'al

 

Text:  lord.


(1.) The name appropriated to the principal male god of the Phoenicians. It is found in several places in the plural BAALIM (Shophetiym/Judg. 2:11; 10:10; 1 Melekiym/1 Kings 18:18; Yirmiyah/Jer. 2:23; Hos. 2:17). Baal is identified with Molech (Yirmiyah 19:5). It was known to the Israelites as Baal-peor (B'midbar/Num. 25:3; Dabariym/Deut. 4:3), was worshipped till the time of Shemuel/Samuel (1 Shemuel 7:4), and was afterwards the religion of the ten tribes in the time of Achab (1 Melekiym 16: 31-33; 18:19, 22). It prevailed also for a time in the kingdom of Yahudah (2 Melekiym 8:27; comp. 11:18; 16:3; 2 Dibrey ha'Yamiym/2 Chr. 28:2). till finally put an end to by the severe discipline of the Captivity (Zephanyah 1:4-6).


The priests of Baal were in great numbers (1 Melekiym 18:19), and of various classes (2 Melekiym 10:19). Their mode of offering sacrifices is described in 1 Melekiym 18:25-29. The sun-god, under the general title of Baal, or "lord," was the chief object of worship of the Kena'aniym/Canaanites. Each locality had its special Baal, and the various local Baals were summed up under the name of Baalim, or "lords." Each Baal had a wife, who was a colourless reflection of himself.

When the scriptures mention the House of Yahudah (KJV will spell it “Judah”) it is talking about the single tribe of Yahudah [the “Jews”], which the tribe of Benyamin and Leviy assimilated into. Understand there was a small remnant of the House of Yisrael that stayed with the House of Yahudah, which are part of the House of Yahudah, YaHVeH does not refer to them as House of Yisrael (1 Kings 12:23), HE calls them “the remnant of the people:”

 

1 Melekiym/1Kings:12:23: Speak to Rehoboam/Rechabam, the ben of Shel-o-moh/Solomon, melek of Yahudah, and to all the house of Yahudah and Benyamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying,

 

When the scriptures mention the House of Yisrael (KJV will spell it “Israel”) it is talking about the scattered ten tribes that think they to be themselves Gentile nations. When the scriptures mention the House of Ya’akob (KJV will spell it “Jacob”) it is talking about all twelve tribes. When the scripture speaks of the remnant of Yisrael it is speaking of all twelve tribes. The UK (Ephrayim) and USA (Menashsheh) are the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael. These two nations have held world economic power and influence (B’reshiyth/Gen. 49:1, 22 – 26) in these last days before Yahshua Mashiyach’s return.

 

In KJV the phrase “the word of the LORD” appears 51 times in Yirmi’Yah.

I began a timeline over five years ago and have been calculating it to this day. I’ve done one on the KJV, The book of Yashar and finished calculating one according to the history of Yosephus. From these three sources and outside historical sources I have extrapolate the information from them and produces a 7,000 year timeline; from the creation of Adam to the “Great Tribulation”/“Ya`akob`s Trouble”. The abbreviation I use to designate this time is F.C.A./FCA = From Creation of Adam. I believe that Yosephus’ timeline actually comes closer to the 7,000 year timeline, with a few adjustments, it is through his history I will line the timelines up. You will see what I mean when I write the next paragraph.

 

Yirmiyah was called to Naba/Foretell for the Word of YaHVeH around 3717 FCA on the KJV timeline, on the Yosephus timeline it was around 4412 FCA. There is 695 years difference between the two timelines and it is Yosephus’ timeline that is closes to the 7,000 year time frame; so, on the extrapolated time line Yirmiyah begins to foretell in 4353 FCA.

From Matthew Henry commentary (edited):

** Yirmiyah was a kohen, a native of Anathoth, in the tribe of Benyamin. He was called to the naba/foretelling office when very young, about seventy years after the death of Yashayah/Isaiah, and exercised it for about forty years with great trustfulness, till the sins of The Yudiy nation came to their full measure and destruction followed. The foretelling of Yirmiyah does not stand as they were delivered.

What Matthew Henry means by saying “The foretelling of Yirmiyah does not stand as they were delivered”; you need to notice that the sequence of chapters in the KJV is out of order, why, I don’t know? But chapter 26 should come before chapter 25; notice chapter 26 is in Yahvyakiym’s first year and chapter 25 is in his Yahvyakiym’s fourth year.

(6.) The high kohen in the reign of Yoshiyah/Josiah (1 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/1 Chr. 6:13; Ezra 7:1). To him and his deputy (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 23:5), along with the ordinary koheniym and the Leviyiym/Levites who had charge of the gates, was entrusted the purification of the Heykal/House in Yahvshalam. While this was in progress, he discovered in some hidden corner of the building a book called the "book of the law/torah" (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 22:8) and the "book of the covenant/beriyth" (23:2). Some have supposed that this "book" was nothing else than the original autograph copy of the Pentateuch written by Mosheh (Dabariym/Deut. 31:9-26). This remarkable discovery occurred in the eighteenth year of Yoshiyah's reign (4358 FCA/622 BCE/B.C. 624 T.T.L.), a discovery which permanently affected the whole subsequent history of Yisrael.

Text:  the name of one of the cities of refuge, in the tribe of Benyamin (Yahshua/Josh. 21:18). The Yudiym, as a rule, did not change the names of the towns they found in Pelesheth/Palestine; hence this town can be regarded as deriving its name from the goddess Anat. It was the native place of Ab-iy-ezer, one of David's "thirty" (2 Shemuel 23:27), and of Yahu, another of his mighty men (1 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym /1 Chr. 12:3).

 

It is chiefly notable, however, as the birthplace and usual residence of Yirmiyah (Yirmiyah 1:1; 11:21-23; 29:27; 32:7-9). It suffered greatly from the army of San-che-riyb/Sennacherib, and only 128 men returned to it from the Exile (Nechemyah 7:27; Ezra 2: 23). It lay about 3 miles north of Yahvshalam. It has been identified with the small and poor village of 'Anata, containing about 100 inhabitants.

Text:  healed by YaHVeH, or YaHVeH will support. The ben of Amon, and his successor on the throne of Yahudah (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 22:1; 2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/ 2 Chr. 34:1). His history is contained in 2 Melekiym 22, 23. He stands foremost among all the kings of the line of David for unswerving loyalty to YaHVeH (23:25). He "did that which was right in the sight of YaHVeH, and walked in all the way of David his father."


Page 10


He ascended the throne at the early age of eight years, and it appears that not till eight years afterwards did he begin "to seek after the Elohiym of David his father." At that age he devoted himself to Elohiym. He distinguished himself by beginning a war of extermination against the prevailing idolatry, which had practically been the state religion for some seventy years (2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/ 2 Chr. 34:3; comp. Yirmiyah 25:3, 11, 29).

 

In the eighteenth year of his reign he proceeded to repair and beautify the Heykal, which by time and violence had become sorely dilapidated (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 22:3, 5, 6; 23:23; 2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/ 2 Chr. 34:11).

 

While this work was being carried on, Chilkiyah/Hilkiah, the high kohen, discovered a roll, which was probably the original copy of the law/torah, the entire Pentateuch, written by Mosheh. When this book was read to him, the melek was alarmed by the things it contained, and sent for Chuldah, the neb-iy-ah/"prophetess," for her counsel. She spoke to him words of encouragement, telling him that he would be gathered to his fathers in shalom before the threatened days of judgment came. Yoshiyah immediately gathered the people together, and engaged them in a renewal of their ancient national covenant with Elohiym. The Passover was then celebrated, as in the days of his great predecessor, Yechizkiyah/Hezekiah, with unusual magnificence.

 

Nevertheless, "YaHVeH turned not from the fierceness of HIS great wrath wherewith HIS anger was kindled against Yahudah" (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 22:3-20; 23:21-27; 2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/2 Chr. 35:1-19). During the progress of this great religious revolution Yirmiyah helped it on by his earnest exhortations. Soon after this, Paro/Pharaoh-Necho II. (q.v.), king of Mitsrayim/Egypt, in an expedition against the king of Assyria, with the view of gaining possession of Kar-kem-iysh/Carchemish, sought a passage through the territory of Yahudah for his army. This Yoshiyah refused to permit. He had probably entered into some new alliance with the king of Assyria, and trustful to his word he sought to oppose the progress of Necho.

 

The army of Yahudah went out and encountered that of Egypt at Megiddo, on the verge of the Plain of Esdraelon. Yoshiyah went into the field in disguise, and was fatally wounded by a random arrow. His attendants conveyed him toward Yahvshalam, but had only reached Had-ad-rim-mon, a few miles south of Megiddo, when he died (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 23:28, 30; comp. 2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/2 Chr. 35:20-27), after a reign of thirty-one years. He was buried with the greatest respects in fulfillment of Chuldah's foretelling (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 22:20; comp. Yirmiyah 34:5). Yirmiyah composed a funeral elegy on this the best of the melekiym of Yisrael (Eykah/Lam. 4:20; 2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/2 Chr. 35:25). The outburst of national grief on account of his death became proverbial (Zecharyah/Zech. 12:11; comp. Revelation/Galah Raz/Revealer of Secrets 16:16).

(1.) The governor of Samaria/Shomeron in the time of Achab. The nabiy Miykayah/Micaiah was committed to his custody (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 22:26; 2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym/ 2 Chr. 18:25).

 

(2.) The ben of Menashsheh, and fourteenth melek of Yahudah. He restored idolatry, and set up the images which his father had cast down. Zephanyah (1:4; 3:4, 11) refers to the moral depravity prevailing in this melek's reign. He was assassinated (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 21:18-26: 2 Dibrey Ha’ Yamiym /2 Chr. 33:20-25) by his own servants, who conspired against him.

 

(3.) An Egyptian god, usually depicted with a human body and the head of a ram, referred to in Yirmiyah 46:25, where the word "multitudes" in the Authorized Version is more appropriately rendered "Amon" in the Revised Version. In Nachum 3:8 the expression "populous No" the Revised Version "No-amon." Amon is identified with Ra, the sun-god of Heliopolis.

 

(4.) Nechemyah 7:59.

 

Yirmiyah: 1:3: It came also in the days of Yahvyakiym the ben of Yoshiyah melek of Yahudah, to the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah/Tsidqi`Yah/Zid-ki-yah the ben of Yoshiyah melek of Yahudah, to the carrying away of Yahvshalam/Yahvshalayim captive in the fifth month.

 

Zidkiyah was the last melek on the throne in Yahvshalam during the first heykal period. His eleventh year came 4394 FCA.

 

Yirmiyah: 1:4: Then the Word of YaHVeH came to me, saying,

Yirmiyah: 1:5: Before I formed you in the belly I knew you; and before you came forth out of the womb I purified you, and I ordained you a nabiy/prophet to the nations/goyiym.

 

If you ever wanted to make an argument for predestination this is the right verse for it. Yirmiyah was a nabiy/foreteller period. He had no choice in the matter. It is the same when YaHVeH chooses you and leads you to Yahshua the Messiyah. It is not your doing! Elohiym is in control of the situation:

 

{Yohn /Yohanan/Yahvchanan/Yahanan: 6:44: No man can come to Me, except the FATHER which has sent Me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.}

 

YOU NEED TO NOTICE THIS: Yirmiyah was a nabiy/foreteller to the nations, not just the House of Yahudah. This is speaking of the end time nations! I believe Yirmiyah will be resurrected at the sound of the “last trump = 7th trumpet (I Cor. 15:52; I Thes. 4: 14 – 17; Rev. 10:7) and proclaim to the nations that the wrath of the Lamb is getting ready to be poured out (Rev. chapters 10; 15; 16) on them. There are more chapters and verses I could give you in Revelation; these chapters are to give you a general idea why I have this understanding. I believe Yahvchanan of Patmos; the one who wrote down the vision (Rev. 1:1 – 3) that was given to him by the Malak sent by Yahshua, will also be resurrected to deliver a message to the nations (Rev. 10:11).

Yirmiyah: 1:6: Then said I, Ah, Rabbi YaHViH!  Behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child.

 

Yirmiyah must have been a teenager or young man at the time YaHVeH called him. Some believe he might have been 17. But also remember how Mosheh responded to his calling (Shemoth/Exodus chapters 3 and 4):

 

{Shemoth/Exodus: 4:10: And Mosheh said to YaHVeH, O my Rabbi, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since YOU have spoken to your servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.

Shemoth: 4:11: And YaHVeH said to him, who has made man's mouth?  Or who makes the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind?  Have not I YaHVeH?

Shemoth: 4:12: Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall say.}

 

Yirmiyah: 1:7: But YaHVeH said to me, Say not, I am a child: for you shall go to all that I shall send you, and whatsoever I command you, you shall speak.

 

Where did Yirmiyah go? YaHVeH said he was a nabiy to the nations. He could not have just stayed in Yahvshalam.

 

Yirmiyah: 1:8: Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with you to deliver you, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 1:9: Then YaHVeH put forth HIS Hand, and touched my mouth.  And YaHVeH Said to me, Behold, I have put MY words in your mouth.

Yirmiyah: 1:10: See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

 

What does this verse mean?

 

This is from “THE UNITED STATES AND BRITAIN IN PROPHECY” written by the late Herbert W. Armstrong and published by the “Worldwide Church of God”. This book has been taken out of print as far as I know since the death of Mr. Armstrong. I believe it is as insightful if not better reference material as any of the other publications I have used. I use to be a member of the “Worldwide Church of God”. I no longer wish to fellowship with them due to some of the doctrines they have adopted, and many who have come from this organization still refuse to call on YaHVeH’s name and still use the names the “Mother of Harlots” has inserted. Let it be known that I don’t now agree with everything Mr. Armstrong taught. Edited to remove blasphemous names, words and titles and give a more Iybriy/Hebrew rooted understanding:

Not Realized Today

 

“It is generally understood that the house of Yahudah was invaded by the armies of King Nebuchadnezzar; that the Yudiym were taken captive to Babylon; that they ceased from being a kingdom; that there no longer existed a ruler of David’s dynasty on the throne over the Kingdom of Yahudah.

 

What, then, does this mean? Did Elohiym, at last, forget His covenant promise to David that David’s dynasty should never cease – that David’s throne was established in Solomon/Shelomoh to continue through ALL GENERATIONS FOREVER? Had EL Almighty now forgotten that HE had sworn that HE would not alter this promise – even though the kings and the people rebelled and sinned? The trustfulness of ELOHIYM is at stake. The motivation of the Kodesh Scripture as HIS revealed WORD is at stake!

 

But note it! See it in your own scriptures! Yirmiyah was divinely commissioned to pull down and to overthrow that very throne of David in Yahudah – but notice the second half of the commission. TO BUILD AND TO PLANT! To build and to plant WHAT?

 

Why, naturally, that which he was used in “rooting out” of Yahudah – the THRONE OF DAVID which Elohiym swore He would preserve forever! Yirmiyah was set over not just the one nation, Yahudah – but over NATIONS. Over THE KINGDOMS – the Kingdom of Yisrael as well as Yahudah!

 

He was used in “rooting out” that throne from Yahudah. Then what was Yirmiyah commissioned to do in Yisrael?  Notice the second half of his strange and little-understood commission-to BUILD and to PLANT!

 

So far as the world knows, the last king to sit on that throne of David was Zedekiah/Zidkiyah of Yahudah. He was thrown down off the throne and the throne rooted out of Yahudah in the year 4404 F.C.A./585 B.C.-nearly 600 years before Mashiyach!

 

{Note on extrapolated timeline the first heykal was burnt down in 4394 FCA traditional historians mark as 586 BCE and counting from this point Yahshua the Messiyah would not be born until 581 years later (4975 FCA/7 BCE).}

 

What happened to that throne? Where was that throne between 585 B.C. and the time of Mashiyach, 600 years later? We know Yirmiyah did not plant and REBUILD it in Babylon. Elohiym had promised that David’s throne should rule over YISRAELITES through all generations-not over Gentiles. We have the history of the continuance of the Gentile throne in Babylon.


Page 14



David’s throne was never again planted or built among the Yudiym! It was not reigning over the Yudiy in the time of Messiyah. The Yudiym were then under the Roman rule. Yahshua did not ascend any such throne. The throne was not functioning in Yudah-it was not existing at that place or over that people-it was not there for Yahshua to take over. And Yahshua said plainly that His Kingdom was not of this present age!  Yet He was born to sit upon this very THRONE OF HIS FATHER DAVID

(Luke 1: 32)!

 

{Luke: 1:32: He shall be great, and shall be called the Ben of the Highest: and YaHVeH Elohiym shall give to Him the throne of His father David:}

 

But that throne was divinely commissioned to be planted and REBUILT by the nabiy Yirmiyah-during his lifetime!

Yirmiyah was set over both Yahudah and Yisrael. To be used in rooting out David’s throne in Yahudah. But more! To plant and to build, then, of necessity, among the house of YISRAEL, lo, these many days without a king-among LOST Yisrael, now supposing herself to be GENTILE! Therefore the identity and location of the replanting must remain hidden to the world until this time of the END in which we live.

 

Tearing Down the Throne

 

The life and work of Yirmiyah is a most fascinating story. The first chapters of the book of Yirmiyah are devoted to his ministry, warning of the impending captivity of the Yudiym. He warned the melekiym, the koheniym, nabiym and people of Yahudah, delivering Elohiym's message. They threw him in prison-and they refused to heed or obey Elohiym. Then Elohiym caused their captivity. It is generally known that Babylon took Yahudah in three different stages. The first siege was in 604 B.C T.T.L./597 BCE/4383 FCA, a date about two years later than has been commonly reckoned, but a date now firmly established. The land did not completely pass into the hands of these Gentile Babylonians, however, until a full time-cycle of 19 years later, or 585 B.C. You can read the part played by Yirmiyah in this captivity in the book of Yirmiyah.

 

{Note on extrapolated time line the first stage of the Babylonian invasion took place in 4383 FCA which would coincide with 597 BCE.}

 

But now notice an interesting fact. The last and final king recorded either in Scripture or secular history as having sat on the throne of David was King Zidkiyah of Yahudah. Remember his name. Now notice II Kings 24:18: "Zidkiyah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Yahvshalam. And his mother's name was Chamutal, the daughter of Yirmiyah of Libnah."

 

Now notice briefly a description of the final tearing down and rooting out of this throne of David: "In the ninth year of Zidkiyah melek of Yahudah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army against Yahvshalam, and they besieged it. And in the eleventh year of Zidkiyah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, the city was broken up.... And it came to pass, that when Zidkiyah the melek of Yahudah saw them, and all the men of war, then they fled.... But the Chaldean army pursued after them, and overtook Zidkiyah in the plains of Yericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment upon him. Then the king of Babylon slew the beniym of Zidkiyah in Riblah before his eyes: also the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Yahudah. Moreover he put out Zidkiyah's eyes, and bound him with chains, to carry him to Babylon" (Yirmiyah 39:1-7).


Page 15



In the 52nd chapter, first 11 verses, we find almost a word-for-word description of the same events with the added phrase: " . . . and put him [Zidkiyah] in prison TILL THE DAY OF HIS DEATH."

 

These passages bring out these points:

1) The king of Babylon slew all the benniym of Zidkiyah who were heirs to the throne of David.

2) He also slew all the nobles of Yahudah so as to leave no possible heirs for that throne.

3) Finally, after putting out Zidkiyah's eyes, the melek who sat on David's throne was himself taken to Babylon where he died in prison.

4) Thus, as it appears, and as the whole world has believed, the throne of David ceased, with no possible heirs, or beniym, to keep the dynasty alive. Certain it is that from that day on, the throne never again has existed in Yahudah, in Yahvshalam, or among the Yudiym!

What About Jeconiah/Yahvyakiyn?

 

It is true that a former melek of Yahudah was at that time in the dungeons of Babylon-and he had beniym to continue David's line. Former melek Jeconiah/Yahvyakiyn (Jehoiachin), taken to Babylon in chains, was restored to respect 37 years after the captivity (see 2 Melekiym/II Kings 25:27-30). He was even given the title "melek" along with numerous other captive, vassal "melekiym."

 

One of Yahvyakiyn's beniym was Salathiel/She-al-tiy-el, who was the father of Zorobabel/Zer-ub-ba-bel, the ben of royal seed through whom Yahshua Mashiyach Himself traced His royal ancestry back to David! (Matt. 1:12.) And Zerubbabel-or Zorobabel-was the man Elohiym caused Cyrus, king of Persia, to make a decree giving him the governorship-not the crown of a king-to return to Yahvshalam and rebuild the House of Elohiym, the Temple, seventy years after the captivity.

 

Yet neither Yahvyakiyn nor any of his beniym or grandbeniym reigned as melek in Yahudah. Why?

 

If there was a descendant of the line of David who lived through the captivity, why wasn't he restored to the throne when he was returned to Yahvshalam? Why? Simply because YaHVeH would not permit it!


Page 16


It is YaHVeH who makes melekiym-and unmakes them! YaHVeH was determined to remove the crown of David from the ruling line of Pharez/Peretz and place it on the head of a ben of Zarah/Zerach. Yet a royal line straight from David had to remain in the area so the Mashiyach could be born of David's seed yet hundreds of years yet ahead. And YaHVeH also had to keep His promise to David that he, David, would never lack a descendant to sit on the throne! Many intricate and fascinating foretellings had to be carried out-some seemingly contradictory-a difficult job to perform, an awesome commission from YaHVeH to Yirmiyah!

 

"As I live, said YaHVeH, though Coniah [Jeconiah/Yahvyakiyn] the ben of Jehoiakim/Yahvyakiym melek of Yahudah were the signet upon my right hand, yet would I pluck you thence"! (Yirmiyah/Jer. 22:24.) YaHVeH had determined an end for this line of melekiym. He was removing the crown-not permitting Yahvyakiyn’s beniym to reign on Yahudah's throne! YaHVeH was turning over (overturning) the throne to another branch of Yahudah's family.

 

YaHVeH told Yirmiyah forcefully, "Thus said YaHVeH, Write you this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall Prosper, SITTING UPON THE THRONE OF DAVID, AND RULING ANY MORE IN YAHUDAH"! (Yirmiyah 22:30.)

 

YaHVeH spoke! Yirmiyah wrote! History was designed and done as YaHVeH said! Yahvyakiyn had children- YaHVeH Himself caused this fact to be recorded (see 1 Dibrey ha Yamiym/I Chron. 3:17; Matt. 1:12), but as far as the THRONE OF DAVID was concerned -HE WAS CHILDLESS-none of his children ever occupied that throne!

 

The crown had now been removed from the Pharez/Peretz line, uprooted from Yahudah, any immediate candidates to the throne killed, and Yahvyakiyn incarcerated in a Babylonian prison, written childless as far as the throne was concerned by the command of EL Almighty!

 

Yirmiyah had now accomplished the first part of his great commission. The throne had been rooted out, the kingdom torn completely down. Yahudah was now beginning HER national punishment.

Where Did Yirmiyah Go?

 

But what about the second part of Yirmiyah’s important commission?


Page 17


Yirmiyah was among these captive Yahudiym. He must be free to carry out the second part of his commission.

 

So, "Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Yirmiyah to Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, saying, Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do to him even as he shall say to you" (Yirmiyah 39:11- 12). "And the captain of the guard took Yirmiyah, and said to him.... behold, I loose you this day from the chains which were on your hand. If it seem pleasant to you to come with me into Babylon, come; and I will look well to you: but if it seem ill to you to come with me into Babylon, forbear: behold, all the land is before you: whither it seems pleasant and convenient for you to go, thither go.... So the captain of the guard gave him foodstuff and a reward [money), and let him go" (Yirmiyah 40:2-5).

 

So Yirmiyah was left absolutely free to do as he pleased, supplied even with expense money, and given complete freedom, so that he might perform the second half of his mission. Where did he go?

 

We come now to an amazing, fascinating, thrilling part of the book of Yirmiyah, which has been almost entirely overlooked. "Then went Yirmiyah to Gedalyah the ben of Achiykam to Mizpah; and dwelt with him among the people that were left in the land" (verse 6).

 

Now this Gedalyah had been made governor over a remnant of Yahudiym in the land by the king of Babylon, and since Yahvshalam was destroyed, he had made Mizpah his headquarters. But the king of Ammon plotted with a Yudiy named Yishmael to assassinate Gedalyah. The plot was executed; the governor and part of the Yahudiym were slain. Yirmiyah was among the survivors.

 

"Then Yishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even the melek's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard [from Babylon] had committed to Gedalyah ... and carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites/Ammoniym" (Yirmiyah 41:10).

 

Ah! Did you catch it? Read that passage again. Among these Yahudiym were the melek's daughters! Daughters of Zidkiyah, melek of Yahudah, and of David's dynasty!

 

Melek Zidkiyah had died in prison in Babylon (Yirmiyah 52:11). All his beniym had been killed. All the nobles of Yahudah had been killed. All possible heirs of Zidkiyah to David's throne had been killed-except the melek's daughters! Now we see why Yirmiyah went to Mizpah!


Page 18


KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR and his army conquered the southern kingdom of Yahudah and carried its people captive to Babylonia -far to the south of those areas to which the northern tribes had earlier been taken by the Assyrians.

Yirmiyah Escapes

 

Soon a man named Yohanan replaced Yishmael as leader. And in fear of reprisals from Nebuchadnezzar and the Chaldean army, Yohanan and the captains appealed to the nabiy "and said to Yirmiyah the nabiy, Let, we beseech you, our supplication be accepted before you, and pray for us to YaHVeH your Elohiym ... that YaHVeH your Elohiym show us the way wherein we walk" (Yirmiyah 42:2-3). They were like so many professing Christians today. They come to Elohiym’s minister with solemn assurances that they surely do want to know Elohiym's will; they promise, as did these, "we will obey the Voice of YaHVeH our Elohiym" (verse 6).

 

But did they mean it? Such people seldom do. Human character wants to be right-or think it is right-but it does not want to do right.


Page 19



The Word of YaHVeH came to Yirmiyah, and He told them not to fear, that He would protect and deliver them. But the people wanted to flee to Egypt. This YaHVeH warned them not to do. If they did, the sword of Nebuchadnezzar, which they feared, would overtake them there, and they would die. "If you all wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt," Elohiym said, "and go to sojourn there; then it shall come to pass, that the sword, which you all feared, shall overtake you there ... and there you all shall die" (Yirmiyah 42:15-16).

 

But, as people usually do, they rejected Elohiym's warning. "You speak falsely," Yohanan answered, "YaHVeH our Elohiym has not sent you to say, Go not into Egypt" (Yirmiyah 43:2-3). "So Yohanan ... and all the people, obeyed not the voice of the YaHVeH" (verse 4). People who loudly profess to want to do Elohiym's will usually will not accept Elohiym's Word as being HIS will, unless it is their will!

 

And so Yohanan "took all the remnant of Yahudah ... even men, and women, and children, and the melek's daughters ... and Yirmiyah the nabiy, and Baruch the ben of Neriyah [Yirmiyah's scribe, or secretary]. So they came into the land of Egypt" (Yirmiyah 43:5-7).

 

On reaching Egypt, Elohiym warned these Yudiym again through Yirmiyah that they should die there by the sword and famine, and "none shall return but such as shall escape"! (Yirmiyah 44:12-14.) Yes, a few in this company are under divine protection. A divine mission is to be performed. They shall ESCAPE! The Eternal continues: "Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Yahudah" (Yirmiyah 44:28).

 

Under Divine Protection

 

Baruch was Yirmiyah's constant companion and secretary. It is important to note here Elohiym's promise of protection to him: "This said YaHVeH, the Elohiym of Yisrael, to you, 0 Baruch.... Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.... but your life will I give to you for a prey in all places where you go" (Yirmiyah 45:2-5). Baruch's life, like Yirmiyah's, was under divine protection!

 

Now previously the Eternal had said to Yirmiyah, "Verily- it shall be well with your REMNANT." The only "remnant" left for Yirmiyah's mission of transplanting the throne was the melek's daughters. "Verily," continued the Eternal, same verse, "I will cause the enemy to entreat you well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction" (Yirmiyah 15:11). This Elohiym literally did, as described in chapter 39:11-12 and chapter 40:2-6, which I have covered previously.

 

Notice, it is to be well with the royal material given to Yirmiyah with which to build and to plant-and Yirmiyah is to be protected and to go to a land that he knows not! Who else was to go to a land they knew not? The ten-tribes birth- right kingdom, Yisrael!


Page 20


So Yirmiyah and his little royal remnant are to escape out of Egypt, return to Yahudah, and then-where? To the place where the "lost ten tribes" had gone, as we shall see!

 

Now let Yashayah/Isaiah complete this foretelling: "For out of Yahvshalam shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of YaHVeH of hosts shall do this. And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Yahudah shall AGAIN TAKE ROOT DOWNWARD, AND BEAR FRUIT UPWARD" (Yashayah 37:32, 31).

 

This same foretelling is found also in 2 Melekiym/II Kings 19:30-31. It is a foretelling given through Yashayah in the 14th year of the reign of melek Yechizkiyah/Hezekiah of Yahudah, when King Sennacherib of Assyria threatened invasion of Yahudah. It was a foretelling to happen later-not during Yechizkiyah's reign. Some critics, seeking to overthrow this basic and important truth, argue that this same remnant is mentioned also in 2 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym/II Chronicles 30:6. But that event is not a foretelling, but a historic account of an event in the first year of Yechizkiyah-and that remnant did not escape from Yahvshalam, but they were Yahudiym who escaped from Sennacherib's forces threatening invasion of Yahudah-they escaped into, not out of Yahudah. And nothing is said here about "taking root downward, and bearing fruit upward," as in both Yashayah 37 and 2 Melekiym 19.

 

This foretelling is so important it is recorded twice! It does refer to the remnant to escape later-to Yirmiyah’s escape. This remnant with Yirmiyah -at least one of the melek's daughters-shall take root downward! That is, BE REPLANTED!     

 

And then bear fruit upward! Be BUILT! Has Elohiym failed in HIS solemn covenant to keep alive David's throne? Where was this planting and building? Can we find it in Elohiym's Word? We can! The place and the people among whom the throne was reestablished are clearly identified!”

 

End of Quoting from the book: THE UNITED STATES AND BRITAIN IN PROPHECY.

 

Yirmiyah: 1:11: Moreover the Word of YaHVeH came to me, saying, Yirmiyah, what do you see?  And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree.

 

Aharon`s rod was from an almond tree:

 

{B`midbar/Numbers: 17:1: And YaHVeH spoke to Mosheh, saying,

B`midbar: 17:2: Speak to the children of Yisrael, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers, of all their princes according to the house of their father’s twelve rods: write you every man's name on his rod.

B`midbar: 17:3: And you shall write Aharon`s name on the rod of Leviy: for one rod shall be for the head of the house of their fathers.

B`midbar: 17:4: And you shall lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation before the testimony, where I will meet with you.


Page 21



B`midbar: 17:5: And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod, which I shall choose, shall blossom: and I will make to cease from ME the murmurings of the children of Yisrael, whereby they murmur against you.

B`midbar: 17:6: And Mosheh spoke to the children of Yisrael, and every one of their princes/nasiym gave him a rod apiece, for each prince/nasiy one, according to their fathers' houses, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aharon was among their rods.

B`midbar: 17:7: And Mosheh laid up the rods before YaHVeH in the tabernacle of witness.

B`midbar: 17:8: And it came to pass, that on the next day Mosheh went into the tabernacle of witness; and, behold, the rod of Aharon for the house of Leviy was budded, and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.

B`midbar: 17:9: And Mosheh brought out all the rods from before YaHVeH to all the children of Yisrael: and they looked, and took every man his rod.

B`midbar: 17:10: And YaHVeH said to Mosheh, Bring Aharon`s rod again before the testimony, to be kept for a token against the rebels; and you shall quite take away their murmurings from ME, that they die not.}

 

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: Al'mond

 

Text:  a native of Syria and Pelesheth/Palestine. In form, blossoms, and fruit it resembles the peach tree. Its blossoms are of a very pale pink color, and appear before its leaves. Its Iybriy/Hebrew name, shaked (pronounced shaw-kade’), signifying "wakeful, hastening," is given to it on account of its putting forth its blossoms so early, generally in 11th or 12th Chodesh, and sometimes even in 10th or 11th Chodesh.

 

In Koheleth/Eccl. 12:5, it is referred to as illustrative, probably, of the haste with which old age comes. There are others, however, who still contend for the old interpretation here. "The almond tree bears its blossoms in the midst of winter, on a naked, leafless stem, and these blossoms (reddish or flesh-colored in the beginning) seem at the time of their fall exactly like white snow-flakes. In this way the almond blossom is a very fitting symbol of old age, with its silvery hair and its wintry, dry, barren, unfruitful condition."

 

In Yirmiyah/Jer. 1:11 "I see a rod of an almond tree [shaked]......for I will hasten [shaked] my word to perform it" the word is used as an emblem of promptitude. Ya’akob desired his beniym (B’reshiyth/Gen. 43:11) to take with them into Mitsrayim/Egypt of the best fruits of the land, almonds, etc., as a present to Yoseph, probably because this tree was not a native of Egypt. Aharon`s rod yielded almonds (B’midbar/Num. 17:8; Iybriyiym/Heb. 9:4).

 

Mosheh was directed to make certain parts of the candlestick for the ark of carved work "like to almonds" (Shemoth/Ex. 25:33, 34). The Iybriy word luz, translated "hazel" in the Authorized Version (B’reshiyth/Gen. 30:37), is rendered in the Revised Version "almond." It is probable that luz denotes the wild almond, while shaked denotes the cultivated variety.

This is the beginning of the “Great Tribulation”:

 

{Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed/Revelation: 11:1: And there was given me a reed like to a rod: and the malak stood, saying, Rise, and measure the heykal of YaHVeH, and the altar, and them that worship in it.

Revelation: 11:2: But the court which is without the heykal leave out, and measure it not; for it is given to the Gentiles/Goyiym/Nations: and the kodesh city shall they tread under foot forty two months.}

+It seems to me that verse 11 is clearly speaking about the kohen-hood being re-established and or set up again.

 

Yirmiyah: 1:12: Then said YaHVeH to me, you have well seen: for I will hasten MY Word to perform it.

Yirmiyah: 1:13: And the Word of YaHVeH came to me the second time, saying, what do you see?  And I said, I see a seething pot; and the face of it is toward the north.

 

+Now remember that Achaz had Uriyah build an altar to the king of Assyria on the north side of the outer court of the heykal (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 16:8 – 11). It looks like the rod of this almond tree reveals a time ahead of disobedient kohen-hood once again in our time. Why do I say a disobedient kohen-hood, because of what verse 13 says: “…I see a seething pot; and the face of it is toward the north”; the same direction that Uriyah built the altar for the king of Assyria.

North in verse 13 is looking from the direction of Yahvshalam or the land of Yahudah.

 

Yirmiyah: 1:14: Then YaHVeH said to me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth on all the inhabitants of the land.

 

I have no doubt that Yirmiyah 1:13 -14 is speaking of our current situation in Iraq. If you read Zecharyah 5 and 6 this event is speaking about the same situation (Land of Shinar). Read these articles:

Yirmiyah: 1:15: For, observe, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, said YaHVeH; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Yahvshalam, and against all the walls of it round about, and against all the cities of Yahudah.

Yirmiyah: 1:16: And I will utter MY judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken ME, and have burned incense to other elohiym`s, and worshipped the works of their own hands.

 

Verse 16 is speaking about the House of Yahudah and them NOT believing in YaHVeH’s Ben Yahshua the Messiyah, and accepting pagan customs +as I have already confirmed from verse 13. “The works of their own hands” is dealing with Yudah placing modern technology for their protection and savior and NOT Yahveh and HIS Right Hand Yahshua the Messiyah.

 

Yirmiyah: 1:17: You therefore gird up your loins, and arise, and speak to them all that I command you: be not dismayed at their faces, unless I confound you before them.

Yirmiyah: 1:18: For, behold, I have made you this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brazen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Yudah, against the princes of it, against the koheniym of it, and against the people of the land.

Yirmiyah: 1:19: And they shall fight against you; but they shall not prevail against you; for I am with you, said YaHVeH, to deliver you.

 

This sounds like what the two witnesses will be doing with their commission:

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 11:3: And I will give power to MY two witnesses, and they shall naba/foretell a thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.

Re: 11:4: These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the elohiym of the earth.

Re: 11:5: And if any man will hurt them, fire proceeds out of their mouth, and devours their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.

Re: 11:6: These have power to shut shameh, which it rain not in the days of their foretelling: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

 

Who is the elohiym of the earth? What did Shaul say in II Corinthians?

 

2 Corinthians: 4:4: In whom the elohiym of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not, unless the light of the spectacular glad message of Messiyah, who is the image of YaHVeH, should shine to them.

 

Zecharyah: 6:5: And the malak answered and said to me, these are the four ruachiym of the Shamayim, which go forth from standing before the sovereign of all the earth.}

 

Chapter 2

 

This is the House of Yudah (the modern “Jewish State”) and the House of Yisrael’s (U.K. & the U.S.A. the shepherd tribes B’reshiyth/Gen. 49:22 – 26) condition:

 

Yirmiyah: 2:1: Moreover the Word of YaHVeH came to me, saying,

Yirmiyah: 2:2: Go and cry in the ears of Yahvshalam, saying, this said YaHVeH; I remember you, the kindness of your youth, the love of your espousal, when you went after ME in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.

Yirmiyah: 2:3: Yisrael was kodesh/set apart to YaHVeH, and the first fruits of HIS increase: all that devour him shall offend; evil shall come on them, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 2:4: Hear you all the Word of YaHVeH, O house of Ya’akob, and all the families of the house of Yisrael:

 

From E-Sword Strong’s Concordance the Hebrew word for “Jacob” (edited):

From H6117; heel catcher (that is, supplanter); Ya`akob, the Yisraelitish/Yisraeliym father/patriarch: - Jacob/Ya’akob.

 

Yirmiyah: 2:5: This said YaHVeH, What iniquity have your fathers found in ME, that they are gone far from ME, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?

Yirmiyah: 2:6: Neither said they, Where is YaHVeH that brought us up out of the land of Egypt/Mitsrayim, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?


Page 25


From verse 6 the wisdom received from this is that it was a miracle that the children of Yisrael even went through the desert. I never had that understanding before (07/20/6986 – 10/05/04 3rd day of the week). Notice the phrase “through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt”. It seems to me that this was the first time this was done, at the time of the Exodus, that no one had tried it or successfully completed it.

 

Yirmiyah: 2:7: And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit of it and the wellness of it; but when you all entered, you all defiled MY land, and made MY heritage an abomination.

Yirmiyah: 2:8: The koheniym said not, where is YaHVeH?  And they that handle the law/torah knew ME not: the pastors/ra`ah also transgressed against ME, and the prophets/nabiym/foretellers prophesied/naba/foretold by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.

 

See page six for explanation of Baal.

 

This is our current condition. Today’s “Christian churches” teach you’re not under the commandments of Elohiym. The pagan customs that “Christianity” keeps is a testament to that fact. Refer to Revelation chapter 17. This applies to the House of Yudah also, because she doesn’t know YaHVeH because they don’t believe in Yahshua the Messiyah HIS Ben:

 

{Yahn/Yahvchanan/Yohn: 5:23: That all men should respect the Ben, even as they respect the FATHER. He that respects not the Ben respects not the FATHER, which has sent Him.

 

Yahn: 8:19:  Then said they to Him, Where is your Father? Yahshua answered, You all neither know Me, nor My FATHER: if you all had known Me, you all should have known My FATHER also.}

 

I’m not saying all bloodline Yudiym (all obedient believers in Yahshua the Mashiyach are called Yahudiym even if their physical bloodline is Gentile Romans 2:29; 11) don’t believe in Yahshua the Messiyah, if that were the case the body of Yahshua would have never been started on the Feast of First Fruits (Acts 2). Verse 8 of Yirmiyah 2 is primarily speaking about unbelievers, because it is unbelievers that are in control of this world’s government (Mat. 4:8 – 10; II Cor. 4:4). It is no different today than in Yirmiyah’s and Yahshua’s day, Satan is the elohiym of this world and he has and continues to influence the decision of governments around the world. The hideous and deceptive influence Satan has most used is “Christianity” (Rev. 13:11; 12:9; Mat. 24:5; Majority of believers in “Christianity” are of the lost tribes [T’hiyliym/Ps. 83:3; 1 Melekiym/I Kings 1] of the House of Yisrael), and the unbelieving House of Yudah (Yirmiyah 3).

 

Yirmiyah: 2:9: That’s why I will yet plead with you, said YaHVeH, and with your children's children will I plead.

Page 26

The “children’s children’s” is speaking of a generation not yet come during the time of Yirmiyah, which is the end time generation.

 

Yirmiyah: 2:10: For pass over the isles of Chittiym, and see; and send to Kedar, and consider diligently, and see if there be such a thing.

Text:  a plural form (B’reshiyth/Gen. 10:4), the name of a branch of the descendants of Yavan, the "ben" of Yepheth. Balaam foretold (B’midbar/Num. 24:24) "that ships shall come from the coast of Chittiym, and afflict Eber." Daniel foretold (11:30) that the ships of Chittiym would come against the king of the north. It probably denotes Cyprus, whose ancient capital was called Kition by the Greeks.

 

The references elsewhere made to Chittiym (Yashayah/Isa. 23:1, 12; Yirmiyah/Jer. 2:10; Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 27: 6) are to be explained on the ground that while the name originally designated the Phoenicians only, it came latterly to be used of all the islands and various settlements on the sea-coasts which they had occupied, and then of the people who succeeded them when the Phoenician power decayed. Hence it designates generally the islands and coasts of the Mediterranean and the races that inhabit them.

It is the name for the nomadic tribes of Arabs, the Bedouins generally (Yashayah/Isa. 21:16; 42:11; 60:7; Yirmiyah/Jer. 2:10; Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 27:21), who dwelt in the northwest of Arabia. They lived in black hair-tents (Cant. 1:5). To "dwell in the tents of Kedar" was to be cut off from the worship of the true Elohiym (T’hiyliym/Ps. 120:5). The Kedarites/Kedariym suffered at the hands of Nebuchadnezzar (Yirmiyah/Jer. 49:28, 29).

 

Yirmiyah: 2:11: Has a nation changed their elohiym, which are yet no elohiym?  But MY people have changed their splendor for that which does not profit.

In Hoshea 9:6 the Iybriy name is Moph, and is translated "Memphis," which is its Greek and Latin form. It was one of the most ancient and important cities of Mitsrayim, and stood a little to the south of the modern Cairo, on the western bank of the Nile. It was the capital of Lower Mitsrayim. Among the ruins found at this place is a colossal statue of Rameses the Great. (See MEMPHIS.)

The Yudiym from Yahvshalam fled to this place after the death of Gedalyah (q.v.), and settled there for a time (Yirmiyah/Jer. 2:16; 43:7; 44:1; 46:14). A platform of brickwork, which there is every reason to believe was the pavement at the entry of Pharaoh's/Paroh’s palace, has been discovered at this place. "Here," says the discoverer, Mr. Petrie, "the ceremony described by Yirmiyah [43:8-10; "brick-kiln", i.e., pavement of brick] took place before the chiefs of the fugitives assembled on the platform, and here Nebuchadnezzar spread his royal pavilion" (R.V., "brickwork").

Text:  the name derived from the city Asshur on the Tigris, the original capital of the country, was originally a colony from Babylonia, and was ruled by viceroys from that kingdom. It was a mountainous region laying to the north of Babylonia, extending along the Tigris as far as to the high mountain range of Armenia, the Gordiaean or Carduchian mountains. It was founded in 3280 FCA/1700 BCE under Bel-kap-kapu, and became an independent and a conquering power, and shook off the yoke of its Babylonian masters. It subdued the whole of Northern Asia.

 

The Assyrians/Ashshuriym were Semites (B’reshiyth/Gen. 10:22), but in process of time non-Semite tribes mingled with the inhabitants. They were a military people, the "Romans of the East." Of the early history of the kingdom of Assyria/Ashshur little is positively known. In 3860 FCA/1120 BCE Tiglath-pileser I., the greatest of the Ashshuriym/Assyrian kings, "crossed the Euphrates, defeated the kings of the Chittiym/Hittites, captured the city of Carchemish, and advanced as far as the shores of the Mediterranean." He can be regarded as the founder of the first Assyrian/Ashshuriym Empire. After this the Ashshuriym/Assyrians gradually extended their power, subjugating the states of Northern Syria/Aram.

 

In the reign of Achab, melek of Yisrael, Shalmaneser II (4094 FCA/886 BCE); marched an army against the Aramiy/Syrian states, whose allied army he encountered and vanquished at Karkar. This led to Achab's casting off the yoke of Damascus/Dam-me-sek and allying himself with Yahudah. Some years after this the Ashshuriym/Assyrian king marched an army against Chazael, king of Damascus/Dam-me-sek. He besieged and took that city. He also brought under tribute Yahv, and the cities of Tyre/Zor and Sidon/Ziydon.


Page 29


About a hundred years after this (4229 FCA/751 BCE/T.T.L 745 BCE) the crown was seized by a military adventurer called Pul, who assumed the name of Tiglath-pileser III. He directed his armies into Aram/Syria, which had by this time regained its independence, and took (4235 FCA/745 BCE/T.T.L. 740 BCE) Arpad, near Aleppo, after a siege of three years, and reduced Chamath. Azaryah/Azariah (Uzziah/Uzzi`Yah; 4229 FCA was his last year of reign) was an ally of the king of Chamath, and thus was compelled by Tiglath-pileser to do him homage and pay a yearly tribute.

 

In 4219 FCA/761 BCE/ T.T.L. 738 BCE, in the reign of Menachem, melek of Yisrael, Pul invaded Yisrael (4229 FCA/751 BCE), and imposed on it a heavy tribute (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 15:19). Achaz, the melek of Yahudah, when engaged in a war against Yisrael and Aram/Syria, appealed for help to this Ashshuriy/Assyrian king by means of a present of gold and silver (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 16:8); who accordingly "marched against Dammesek/Damascus, defeated and put Rezin to death, and besieged the city itself." Leaving a portion of his army to continue the siege, "he advanced through the province east of Yarden/Jordan, spreading fire and sword," and became master of Pelesheth/Philistia, and took Shomeron/Samaria and Dammesek/Damascus. He died 4252 FCA/728 BCE/ T.T.L. 727 BCE, and was succeeded by Shalmanezer IV., who ruled till 4266 FCA/723 BCE/ T.T.L. 722 BCE.

 

He also invaded Aram/Syria (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 17:5), but was deposed in favor of Sargon (q.v.) the Tartan, or commander-in-chief of the army, who took Shomeron/Samaria (q.v.) after a siege of three years, and so put an end to the kingdom of Yisrael, carrying the people away into captivity, 4261 FCA/719 BCE/T.T.L. 722 BCE (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 17:1-6, 24; 18:7, 9). He also overran the land of Yahudah, and took the city of Yahvshalam (Yashayah/Isa. 10:6, 12, 22, 24, 34).

Mention is next made of Sennacherib/San-che-riyb (4275 FCA/708 BCE), the ben and successor of Sargon (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 18:13; 19:37; Yashayah/Isa. 7:17, 18); and then of Esar-chaddon, his ben and successor, who took Menashsheh, melek of Yahudah, captive, and kept him for some time a prisoner at Babylon, which he alone of all the Assyrian kings made the seat of his government (2Melekiym/2 Kings 19:37; Yashayah/Isa. 37:38).

 

Assur-bani-pal, the ben of Esarchaddon, became king, and in Ezra 4:10 is referred to as Os-nap-par/Asnapper. From an early period Assyria had entered on a conquering career, and having absorbed Babylon, the kingdoms of Chamath, Dammesek/Damascus, and Shomeron/Samaria, it conquered Phoenicia, and made Yahudea feudatory, and subjected Pelesheth/Philistia and Edom/Idumea.


Page 30

 

At length, however, its power declined. In 4277 FCA/703 BCE/T.T.L. 727 BCE the Babylonians threw off the rule of the Assyrians, under the leadership of the powerful Chaldean prince Merodach-Baladan (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 20:12), who, after fourteen years, was subdued by Sancheriyb/Assur-bani-pal, who now reunited the kingdom, and ruled over a vast empire.

 

But on his death (Sancheriyb/Assur-bani-pal) the smoldering flames of rebellion again burst forth, and the Babylonians and Medes successfully asserted their independence (4355 FCA/T.T.L. 625 BCE/), and Assyria fell according to the foretelling of Yashayah/Isaiah (10:5-19), Nachum (3:19), and Zephanyah (3:13), and the many separate kingdoms of which it was composed ceased to recognize the "great king" (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 18:19; Yashayah/Isa. 36:4). Yechizkiyah/Ezekiel (31) attests (4394 FCA/about 586 BCE) how completely Assyria was overthrown. NINEVEH, BABYLON.)

 

Comments below were originally written on 06/25/6985* the 7th day of the week/Shabbat [09/11/04]:

 

These are known ancient enemies of Yisrael. Egypt is actually called Mitsrayim in scripture and the name of Assyria is called Ashshur and is today known as Iraq. For whatever reason U.K., USA and their allies will be dealing with these nations out of desperation.

 

I cannot help but make the connection of this name Sihor/Shiychor and that it means black and the chariot with black horses of Zecharyah/Zechariah 6:6 and the black horse of Revelation 6:5-6. I believe the color of the horses represents economy and crude oil.

 

Yirmiyah: 2:19: Your own wickedness shall correct you, and your backslidings shall reprove you: know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter, that you have forsaken YaHVeH your Elohiym, and that MY fear is not in you, said the Rabbi YaHViH of hosts.

 

This “fear” is a healthy fear. Today most Christians and unbelieving “Jews”/Yudiym don’t think you’re supposed to fear Elohiym.

 

Yirmiyah: 2:20: For of old time I have broken your yoke, and burst your bands; and you said, I will not transgress; when on every high hill and under every green tree you wander, playing the harlot.

 

Refer to Revelation chapter 17.

 

Yirmiyah: 2:21: Yet I had planted you a noble vine, entirely a right seed: how then are you turned into the degenerate plant of a strange vine to ME?

Yirmiyah: 2:22: For though you wash yourself with nitre/potash, and take you much soap, yet your iniquity is marked before ME, said the Rabbi YaHViH.


Page 31

The USA does this all the time. Christians don’t think observing pagan customs is wrong, they believe Elohiym’s Law/Torah has been done away with.

 

From the encyclopedia Britannica (unedited):

 

Baal, god worshiped in many ancient Middle Eastern communities, especially among the Canaanites, who apparently considered him a fertility deity and one of the most important gods in the pantheon. As a Semitic common noun Baal (Hebrew ba'al) meant "owner" or "lord," although it could be used more generally; for example, a Baal of wings was a winged creature, and, in the plural, Baalim of arrows indicated archers. Yet such fluidity in the use of the term Baal did not prevent it from being attached to a god of distinct character. As such, Baal designated the universal god of fertility, and in that capacity his title was Prince, Lord of the Earth. He was also called the Lord of Rain and Dew, the two forms of moisture that were indispensable for fertile soil in Canaan. In Ugaritic and Old Testament Hebrew, Baal's epithet as the storm god was He Who Rides on the Clouds. In Phoenician he was called Baal Shamen, Lord of the Heavens.

Knowledge of Baal's personality and functions derives chiefly from a number of tablets uncovered from 1929 onward at Ugarit (modern Ras Shamra), in northern Syria, and dating to the middle of the 2nd millennium BC. The tablets, although closely attached to the worship of Baal at his local temple, probably represent Canaanite belief generally.

 

Fertility was envisaged in terms of seven-year cycles. In the mythology of Canaan, Baal, the god of life and fertility, locked in mortal combat with Mot, the god of death and sterility. If Baal triumphed, a seven-year cycle of fertility would ensue; but, if he were vanquished by Mot, seven years of drought and famine would ensue.

Ugaritic texts tell of other fertility aspects of Baal, such as his relations with Anath, his consort and sister, and also his siring a divine bull calf from a heifer. All this was part of his fertility role, which, when fulfilled, meant an abundance of crops and fertility for animals and mankind.

 

But Baal was not exclusively a fertility god. He was also king of the gods, and, to achieve that position, he was portrayed as seizing the divine kingship from Yamm, the sea god.

The myths also tell of Baal's struggle to obtain a palace comparable in grandeur to those of other gods. Baal persuaded Asherah to intercede with her husband El, the head of the pantheon, to authorize the construction of a palace. The god of arts and crafts, Kothar, then proceeded to build for Baal the most beautiful of palaces, which spread over an area of 10,000 acres. The myth may refer in part to the construction of Baal's own temple in the city of Ugarit. Near Baal's temple was that of Dagon, given in the tablets as Baal's father.

 

The worship of Baal was popular in Egypt from the later New Kingdom in about 1400 B.C. to its end (1075 BC). Through the influence of the Aramaeans, who borrowed the Babylonian pronunciation Bel, the god ultimately became known as the Greek Belos, identified with Zeus.


Page 32

Various communities also worshiped Baal as a local god. The Old Testament speaks frequently of the Baal of a given place or refers to Baalim in the plural, suggesting the evidence of local deities, or "lords," of various locales. It is not known to what extent the Canaanites considered those various Baalim identical, but the Baal of Ugarit does not seem to have confined his activities to one city, and doubtless other communities agreed in giving him cosmic scope.

                                                                                     

In the formative stages of Israel's history, the presence of Baal names did not necessarily mean apostasy or even syncretism. The judge Gideon was also named Jerubbaal (Judges 6:32), and King Saul had a son named Ishbaal (I Chronicles 8:33). For those early Hebrews, "Baal" designated the Lord of Israel, just as "Baal" farther north designated the Lord of Lebanon or of Ugarit. What made the very name Baal anathema to the Israelites was the program of Jezebel, in the 9th century BC, to introduce into Israel her Phoenician cult of Baal in opposition to the official worship of Yahweh (I Kings 18). By the time of the prophet Hosea (mid-8th century BC) the antagonism to Baalism was so strong that the use of the term Baal was often replaced by the contemptuous boshet ("shame"); in compound proper names, for example, Ishbosheth replaced the earlier Ishbaal.

Camels are frequently spoken of in patriarchal times (B’reshiyth/Gen. 12:16; 24:10; 30:43; 31:17, etc.). They were used for carrying burdens (B’reshiyth/Gen. 37:25; Shophetiym/Judg. 6:5), and for riding (B’reshiyth/Gen. 24:64). The hair of the camel falls off of itself in spring, and is woven into coarse cloths and garments (Matith`Yah ha Leviy/Matt. 3:4). (See CAMEL.)

Yirmiyah: 2:24: A wild ass used to the wilderness, which snuffs up the wind at her pleasure; in her occasion who can turn her away?  All they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month they shall find her.

 

This is our current condition as a nation: We have uncontrollable sexual urges worst than what animals have; because the female mammal animal will only go into heat at a certain time; humans don’t have this type of clock designed into their biology, other than the woman’s monthly cycle, other than that we as humans have to learn to control our sexual urges so that we don’t behave like animals/beasts. We know this is true for The USA. I myself was ensnared in pornography before the age of thirteen and saw my first sexually graphic picture when I was very young; the divorce rate in this country is out of control; sex crimes are rampant!

 

But verse 24 is not just speaking about sex; it is talking about ancient Yisrael’s political policies in dealing with other nations/neighbors around them, which is comparable to what the USA does today. The USA government is founded on the image of the Beast system spoken of in Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed chapter 13:15 (it is not the Beast that rises from the dead; read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/82usaisnotthebeastofrev.htm); the House of Yisrael (UK/Ephrayim and USA/Menashsheh shepherd tribes of the ten tribes) is steeped in Iyzebel/Jezebel, Babylonian, Greco-Roman, Pagan, Gregorian Christian doctrine! Remember Constantine I made Christianity the official religion of Rome; and through his efforts has caused a counterfeit religion (Mat. 13:25; 24:5; Rev. 12:9) that says it represents the Iybriy/Hebrew from the tribe of Yahudah, of the root of David Yahshua the Mashiyach (Rev. 5:5); but if you don’t know the scriptures you can easily be deceived by this counterfeit; they are promoting a sun god/Apollo/Zeus/Baal/LORD/GOD/Jesus/Iesous “Christ” (Hoshea 2:16-17)!  An abomination to YaHVeH and HIS Ben Yahshua (Rev. 17:5)! Committing idolatry in ruach terms is the same as having sexual relations with someone you are not married too; in other words when you go outside of YaHVeH’s commandments through belief in Yahshua the Messiyah (Rev. 11:19; 12:17; 14:12) and begin to call on other mighty ones/idols, and replace YaHVeH’s Sabbaths with pagan customs (Dan. 7:25), you are committing ruach adultery!                                                       

 

Yirmiyah: 2:25: Withhold your foot from being unshod, and your throat from thirst: but you said, There is no expectation: no; for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.

 

We are selling ourselves to the nations, because we are desperate economically! We want that luxurious comfort, so we are willing to do anything for it! We could turn to YaHVeH through HIS Ben Yahshua; but no, we turn to other [who really are our enemies] nations for help.    

 

Yirmiyah: 2:26: As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Yisrael ashamed; they, their melekiym/kings, their princes, and their koheniym/priests, and their nabiym/foretellers/prophets.                                                                                 


Page 34

Yirmiyah: 2:27: Saying to a stock, you are my father; and to a stone, you have brought me forth: for they have turned their back to ME, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.

 

Clearly we are worshipping the works of our hands. For example: automobiles, technology.... Notice YaHVeH’s say “they have turned their back to ME…” HE is speaking about Easter/Ishtar/Tammuz sunrise service in worship of the sun/son. YaHVeH’s throne in the earthly heykal was located in the west; the sun rises in the east, so the apostate koheniym turned their backs on HIS throne so they could worship the sun/Baal/son in the east (Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 8:16 read the entire chapter as well as the book).

 

Yirmiyah: 2:28: But where are your elohiym`s that you have made for yourself?  Let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your trouble: for according to the quantity of your cities are your elohiym`s/idols, O Yahudah.

 

This is speaking directly to the Yudiym in Yahvshalam and parts of the Promised Land today.                                                                                                      

 

Yirmiyah: 2:29: Why will you all plead with ME?  You all have transgressed against ME, said YaHVeH.                                                                                              

Yirmiyah: 2:30: In vain have I punished your children; they received no correction: your own sword has devoured your nabiym/foretellers, like a destroying lion.

Yirmiyah: 2:31: O generation, see you the Word of YaHVeH.  Have I been a wilderness to Yisrael; A land of darkness?  Why do MY people say, we will rule/rud ourselves; we will come no more to YOU?

 

From E-Sword Strong’s Concordance the Hebrew word for “lords” is:

 

H7300

רוּד

rûd

Rood

A primitive root; to tramp about, that is, ramble (free or disconsolate): - have the dominion, be lord, mourn, rule.

 

There is no doubt this is our condition today! We think we are the ultimate authority in law!

 

Yirmiyah: 2:32: Can a maid forget her ornaments or a bride her attire?  Yet MY people have forgotten ME days without number.                                                                                                                                                       Yirmiyah: 2:33: How skillful you are in seeking love?  That’s why you have also taught the wicked your skillfulness.                                                                                                                                                    Yirmiyah: 2:34: After all this I have found in your skirts the blood of the lives of the poor innocents: I have not found it by secret search.


Page 35

Yirmiyah: 2:35: Yet you say, because I am innocent, surely HIS anger shall turn from ME.  Observe, I will plead with you, because you say, I have not sinned.

 

YaHVeH is going to plead with them through the Great Tribulation.

 

Yirmiyah: 2:36: Why do you travel/azal to and fro so much to repeat your ways? You also will be ashamed of Mitsrayim/Egypt, as you were ashamed of Ashshur/Assyria.

 

The KJV made this verse very hard to understand, and it shouldn’t be that way. The House of Yisrael goes from one ally to another but they continue in their same old disobedient path and continue to achieve the same results, instead of turning to YaHVeH and repenting from their transgressions.

 

What is the USA doing today? It is supplying Egypt an Islamic regime with two hundred fifty million dollars worth of weaponry. When you read Yirmiyah chapter 13 you will see how the Word of YaHVeH foretold of these very events that are happening today.

 

From E-Sword Concordance the Hebrew word “gaddest” is:

 

H235

אזל

'âzal

Aw-zal'

A primitive root; to go away, hence to disappear: - fail, gad about, go to and fro [but in Eze_27:19 the word is rendered by many “from Uzal,” by others “yarn”], be gone (spent).

 

Yirmiyah: 2:37: Yes, you shall go out by him, and your hands on your head: for YaHVeH has rejected your assurances, and you shall not prosper in them.

 

This is speaking of captivity. Hands on your head indicate you being led away as a prisoner.

Chapter 3

 

Yirmiyah: 3:1: They say, If a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man's, shall he return to her again?  Shall not that land be greatly polluted?  But you have played the harlot with many lovers; yet return again to ME, said YaHVeH.

 

Verse 1 has a dual foretelling purpose; it is speaking of the physical tribes of Yisrael as well as about the body of Yahshua/YaHVeH’s called out/kara yaza/קרא יצא. We know that the Ekklesia/Kara Yaza is compared to being a woman, a virgin bride, and that the tribes of Yisrael as being in a marriage agreement with the ALMIGHTY.


Page 36

{Yashayah: 54:5: For your Maker is your husband; YaHVeH of hosts is HIS name; and your Redeemer the Kadosh One of Yisrael; the Elohiym of the entire earth shall HE be called.

Yashayah: 54:6: For YaHVeH has called you as a woman forsaken and grieved in ruach/life, and a wife of youth, when you were refused, said your Elohiym.

Yashayah: 54:7: For a small moment have I forsaken you; but with great kindness will I gather you.

 

Ephesians: 5:23: For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Messiyah is the head of the Ekklesia/Called out/Kara yaza: and He is the redeemer of the body.

 

Revelation: 19:7: Let us be glad and rejoice, and give respect to Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come and His wife has made her-self ready.

 

Revelation: 21:9: And there came to me one of the seven malakiym which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come here, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife. }

 

Yirmiyah: 3:2: Lift up your eyes to the high places, and see who you have not laid with.  In the ways have you sat for them, as the Arabian in the wilderness; and you have polluted the land with thy whoredoms and with your wickedness.

 

Being a whore is compared to keeping pagan customs, going after other elohiym`s; religious beliefs other than what is taught in the scriptures. Notice the verse mentions the “Arabian”; what nation does the USA purchase the majority of its oil from, Of course Saudi Arabia. Remember a whore is selling her-self for material gain. What nation has not the USA been involved with in some way or another, especially after World War II? The “high places” mentioned in the verse, are all the “church” buildings that are nothing more than pagan temples that are scattered all over the USA, on just about every street corner!

 

{Revelation: 17:1: And there came one of the seven malakiym which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying to me, Come here; I will show to you the judgment of the great whore that sits upon many waters:

 

Revelation: 17:15: And he said to me, the waters which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.}

 

Yirmiyah: 3:3: Therefore the showers have been with holden, and there has been no latter rain; and you have a whore's forehead, you refused to be ashamed.


Page 37

{Revelation: 17:5:  And on her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.}

 

Remember the mark of the beast you receive either in your forehead or your right hand, which the forehead represents the seat of what you believe, and the right hand the action you take from that belief; whither it be obedience to YaHVeH through belief in HIS Ben Yahshua and keeping HIS commandments; or obedience to this earths Babylonian – Greco-Roman system. The House of Yisrael (USA and UK are the shepherd tribes) is steeped in Christian Baal Sun worship, which is counterfeiting a Greco-Roman Christ named “Jesus”, and the House of Yudah/modern day “Jewish State” is steeped in the doctrines of the elders/”Judaism”, secularism and kabbala, which makes void YaHVeH’s Torah, and continues to reject Yahshua as the Messiyah (Yirmiyah 11:10).

 

This is our current condition as a nation. 1Right now as I update this study the southern portion of the USA, about fourteen states is in a drought.

 

Yirmiyah: 3:4: Will you not from this time cry to ME, MY FATHER, you are the guide of my youth?

 

All we need to do is cry to Yahshua the Messiyah and confess our sins.

 

Yirmiyah: 3:5: Will HE reserve HIS anger forever?  Will HE keep it to the end?  Observe, as you could you have spoken and done evil things.

 

Have you ever heard somebody ask somebody else; “why did you do that?” and they would reply; “because I could”. Well, that was ancient Yisrael’s mindset then and is still her mindset today. Because the USA (and before them was the UK) has been given the material abundance of earth, they have had great and awesome privileges no other nations on this earth has had, and because of this they have great military and economic strength to either do righteously or unrighteously, and just as ancient Yisrael did had done, so has the USA, they have chosen unrighteousness to govern by, which has caused their oppressive, arrogant and bulling behavior towards other nations and their own people. Remember the Messiyah said Him-self in Luke 12:48; “…  For to whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required…” YaHVeH has held off all these years, patiently waiting for the time to be up, and the time is now up! We are in the last 7 years of the 70 years mentioned by Daniy`Yah/Daniel in chapter 9 verse 2; he was referring to what YaHVeH gave Yirmiyah to write down in chapter  25 verse 12 about  the 70 years of the desolation of the Promised Land, and especially Yahvshalam. The USA is that “Prodigal Son” that Luke 15:11 – 32 is talking about; read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/66ukusashepherd.htm

 

Yirmiyah: 3:6: YaHVeH said also to me in the days of Yoshiyah the king, have you seen that which backsliding Yisrael has done?  She is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there has played the harlot.


Page 38

Ancient Yisrael did it then and they are doing it today. The USA sends ambassadors to just about every nation on this earth and makes some kind of economic and or military strategic league it can. 

 

YaHVeH distinguishes the House of Yisrael and the House of Yahudah as women and calls them sisters:

 

Yirmiyah: 3:7: And I said after she had done all these things, Turn you to ME.  But she returned not.  And her treacherous sister Yahudah saw it.

Yirmiyah: 3:8: And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Yisrael committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Yahudah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.

 

Refer to 1 Melekiym/1 Kings 11 and 2 Melekiym/2 Kings 17, for The House of Yisrael, and 2 Dibrey ha Yamiym/2 Chronicle’s chapter 36 starting in verse 5 for the House of Yahudah.

 

Yirmiyah: 3:9: And it came to pass through the lightness of her whoredom, that she defiled the land, and committed adultery with stones and with stocks.

 

Idol worship: keeping pagan religious customs, which the USA (Menashsheh part of the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael) and the modern day nations of the House of Yahudah are doing today.

 

Yirmiyah: 3:10: And yet for all this her treacherous sister Yahudah has not turned to ME with her whole heart, but feignedly, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 3:11: And YaHVeH said to me, the backsliding Yisrael has justified herself more than treacherous Yahudah.

 

From Grolier interactive dictionary:

 

Feigned (f³nd)

 adj.

1. Not real; pretended: feigned modesty.

2. Made-up; fictitious.

 

From E-Sword Strong’s Concordance:

 

H8267

שׁקר

Sheqer

Sheh'-ker


 

Page 39

From H8266; an untruth; by implication a sham (often adverbially): - without a cause, deceit (-ful), false (-hood, -ly), feignedly, liar, + lie, lying, vain (thing), wrongfully.

                    

The House of Yisrael has justified herself more than her sister the House of Yahudah because they are not taught Torah, but yet in many ways judge more matters righteously than the House of Yahudah.

 

This next foretelling/naba has not been fulfilled; it will be when Yahshua Mashiyach returns:

 

Yirmiyah: 3:12: Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, you backsliding Yisrael, said YaHVeH; and I will not cause MY Anger to fall on you: for I am compassionate, said YaHVeH, and I will not keep Anger forever.

Yirmiyah: 3:13: Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against YaHVeH your Elohiym, and have scattered your ways to the strangers under every green tree, and you have not obeyed MY Voice, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 3:14: Turn, O backsliding children, said YaHVeH; for I am married to you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Ziyon:

 

Look at verse 13; the USA does this to every nation she gets in bed with. Look at the culture of the South Koreans before the USA allied with and then look at it today. The same with Japan and other nations.

 

Notice in verse 14 the phrase “I am married to you.” Do you understand the difference between the physical flesh and blood tribes of Yisrael and the body of Yahshua?

 

  1. The physical flesh blood tribes of Yisrael (House of Yisrael and House of Yahudah) are ALREADY married to Yahshua. The Woman having the child in Revelation 12.
  2. The body of Yahshua (composed of children of Yisrael and Gentile people Romans. 11; Revelation. 7) is a virgin bride making herself ready (Mat. 25:1 – 13) for her marriage to her husband. The child being born  from the woman in Revelation 12.

Yirmiyah: 3:15: And I will give you raah/shepherds according to MY heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.

 

Because members of the Body of Yahshua are to be setting our-selves a part from Christianity, instead of “pastors” I have replaced it with “shepherds”. You can use the Iybriy/Hebrew “raah” or “herdsmen”.



Page 40

From E-Sword Hebrew/Iybriy Concordance the word “pastors” is from this Iybriy word:

 

H7462

 

רעה

 

râ‛âh

 

Raw-aw'

 

A primitive root; to tend a flock, that is, pasture it; intransitively to graze (literally or figuratively); generally to rule; by extension to associate with (as a friend): -  X break, companion, keep company with, devour, eat up, evil entreat, feed, use as a friend, make friendship with, herdsman, keep [sheep] (-er), pastor, + shearing house, shepherd, wander, waste.

 

The body of Yahshua will be melekiym and koheniym teaching them.

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 1:5: And from Yahshua Messiyah, who is the trustful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the SAR of the melekiym of the earth. To Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood,

 

Re: 5:10: And has made us to our Elohiym melekiym and koheniym: and we shall reign on the earth.}

 

Yirmiyah: 3:16: And it shall come to pass, when all you be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, said YaHVeH, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of YaHVeH: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more.

 

The underlined statement is true on the Body of Yahshua now and will be true on all the earth when Yahshua Messiyah is ruling. Why? Because in the ark was placed the tablets of YaHVeH’s commandments (Shemoth/Exodus 20; 31:18; 1 Melekiym/1 Kings 8:9). YaHVeH has now written those laws in the minds of the First Fruits of HIS plan of redemption (Read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/2everlastingcovenant.htm), the Body of Yahshua. He will do that to the physical tribes of Yisrael when Yahshua brings them back to the Kodesh Land (Yashayah 11).

 

{Yirmiyah: 31:33: But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Yisrael; After those days, said YaHVeH, I will put MY torah/law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their Elohiym, and they shall be MY people.

 

Hebrews/Iybriyiym: 8:10: For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Yisrael after those days, said YaHVeH; I will put MY torah/law into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them an Elohiym, and they shall be to ME a people : }


Page 41

Yirmiyah 3:17: At that time they shall call Yahvshalam the throne of YaHVeH; and all the nations shall be gathered to it, to the name of YaHVeH, to Yahvshalam: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart.

Yirmiyah: 3:18: In those days the house of Yahudah shall walk with the house of Yisrael, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance to your fathers.

Yirmiyah: 3:19: But I said, how shall I put you among the beniym, and give You a pleasant land, a beautiful heritage of the hosts of nations?  And I said, You shall call ME, My ABBIY; and shall not turn away from ME.

 

I believe verse 19 is speaking about Yahshua the Messiyah when He walked on this earth in the flesh, was offered up, died, rose from the grave on the third day, has ascended to Shamayim and is now at YaHVeH’s right hand. If you will notice in the verse YaHVeH asks a question; HE says “how shall I put you among the beniym...” The verse is speaking about Yahshua the Ben of YaHVeH being placed among the beniym and He inherits the children of Yisrael and the land. Remember it is according to YaHVeH’s Law/Torah for the first born to receive the inheritance first (Matith`Yah ha Leviy/Matthew 21:32 – 46; Read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/59yaakobyoseph.htm ). Notice what Yahvshua said after He was raised from the dead:

 

{Yahvchanan/Yohn: 20:17: Yahshua said to her, Touch Me not; for I am not yet ascended to My AB: but go to My brethren, and say to them, I ascend to My AB, and your AB; and to My EL, and your EL.}

 

This is the current condition of the nations of Yisrael today:

 

Yirmiyah: 3:20: Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her husband, so have you all dealt treacherously with ME, O house of Yisrael, said YaHVeH.

 

This begins the Great Tribulation:

 

Yirmiyah: 3:21: A voice was heard on the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Yisrael: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten YaHVeH their Elohiym.

Yirmiyah: 3:22: Return, you backsliding children/ben, and I will heal your backslidings.  Observe, we come to YOU; for YOU are YaHVeH our Elohiym.

Yirmiyah: 3:23: Truly in vain is salvation expected for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in YaHVeH our Elohiym is the deliverance/teshua of Yisrael.


Page 42

From E-Sword Strong’s Hebrew Concordance:

 

Yirmiyah 3:23:  Truly403 in vain8267 is salvation hoped for from the hills,4480, 1389 and from the multitude1995 of mountains:2022 truly403 in YaHVeH3068 our Elohiym430 is the salvation8668 of Israel.3478

 

H8668


תּשׁעה    תּשׁוּעה


teshû‛âh  teshû‛âh


tesh-oo-aw', tesh-oo-aw'

From H7768 in the sense of H3467; rescue (literally or figuratively, personal, national or spiritual): - deliverance, help, safety, salvation, victory.

 

Yirmiyah: 3:24: For shame has devoured the labor of our fathers from our youth; their flocks and their herds, their beniym and their daughters.

Yirmiyah: 3:25: We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covers us: for we have sinned against YaHVeH our Elohiym, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day, and have not obeyed the Voice of YaHVeH our Elohiym.

 

Notice in verse 25 after the Great Tribulation comes near to its end the children of Yisrael finally confess they have sinned against YaHVeH their Elohiym and accepted Yahshua the Messiyah as HIS Deliverer.

Chapter 4

 

YaHVeH describes the Babylonian Empire as “The lion” in verse 7

 

Yirmiyah: 4:1: If you will return, O Yisrael, said YaHVeH, return to ME: and if you will put away your abominations out of MY sight, then you will not be removed.

 

YaHVeH will turn from HIS anger against us if we turn to Yahshua Messiyah and observe HIS commandments.

 

{Yashayah: 6:9: And HE said, Go, and tell this people, Hear you indeed, but understand not; and see you all indeed, but perceive not.

Yashayah: 6:10: Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; unless they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed. }

 

Yirmiyah: 4:2: And you shall swear, YaHVeH lives, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness; and the nations shall prosper themselves in HIM, and in HIM shall they boast.


Page 43


{Tehiyliym/Psalms: 119:142: YOUR righteousness is an everlasting righteousness and YOUR law/torah is the truth.}

 

Yirmiyah: 4:3: For this said YaHVeH to the men of Yahudah and Yahvshalam, Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns.

Yirmiyah: 4:4: Circumcise yourselves to YaHVeH, and take away the foreskins of your heart, you men of Yahudah and inhabitants of Yahvshalam: unless MY fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.

 

{Romans: 2:29: But he is a Yahudiy, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the ruach, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of YaHVeH.}

 

This is what Yahudah needs to do so that these evils will not come on them.

 

Yirmiyah: 4:5: Declare you in Yahudah, and publish in Yahvshalam; and say, Blow you the trumpet in the land: cry, gather together, and say, Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the defenced cities.

 

Remember Matith`Yah ha Leviy/Matthew chapter 24. This is a cry of war. Also remember Revelation chapter 11 the two witnesses will be preaching during the entire time of the Great Tribulation.

 

Yirmiyah: 4:6: Set up the standard toward Ziyon: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.

 

If we compare verse 6 with Daniel and Revelation this evil from the north will be the resurrected Roman Empire (beast) now in the form of the EU, and those horns mounted on the beast will be ten Middle East Islamic kings, which will ally with them to fight against Yahvshalam and the children of Yisrael (House of Yisrael [UK & USA are the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael, which is steeped in “Christian” Baal/Sun god doctrine, Mat. 24:5] and House of Yahudah Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 4).

 

The time this naba/foretelling was given was during the 1st heykal period and king Nebuchadnezzar sacked Yahvshalam. Remember the statue of Daniel 2 and the beast in Daniel 7. Sense that event a great deal of time has passed. Yahshua the Messiyah has already come in the flesh during the 2nd heykal period, and all the other kingdoms have already come and gone down to the last, which was the Roman Empire. Read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/44the8thkingofrev.htm and https://www.makethewaystraight.com/36tenkingsofrev13.htm

 

Yirmiyah: 4:7: The lion is come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of the Gentiles/Nations/Goyiym is on his way; he is gone forth from his place to make your land desolate; and your cities shall be laid waste, without an inhabitant.

 

Notice in verse 7 YaHVeH says “The lion”, remember Daniel 7:4:

{Daniel/Daniyah: 7:4: the first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I observed until the wings of it were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand on the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.}

 

YaHVeH is staying consistent with HIS foretelling Word in giving this description. Daniel had the scriptures with him; I know he had the writings of Yirmiyah, you can verify that by reading Daniel 9:2:

 

{Daniel: 9:2: In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the Word of YaHVeH came to Yirmiyah the nabiy, that HE would accomplish seventy years in the desolation's of Yahvshalam.}

 

I know Daniel did not immediately understand when he received his vision in chapter 7 that the lion he saw was the Babylonian empire or not, but he was given understanding because he asked someone who he saw in his vision:

 

{Daniel: 7:16: I came near to one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this.  So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.

Daniel: 7:17: These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.}

 

Yirmiyah: 4:8: For this gird you with sackcloth, lament and howl: for the fierce anger of YaHVeH is not turned back from us.

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 11:3: And I will give power to MY two witnesses and they shall naba/foretell a thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.}

 

Verse 9 is speaking about the “Great Tribulation”:

 

Yirmiyah: 4:9: And it shall come to pass at that day, said YaHVeH that the heart of the melek shall perish, and the heart of the sariym; and the koheniym shall be astonished, and the nabiym shall wonder.

Yirmiyah: 4:10: Then said I, Ah, Rabbi YaHViH!  Surely YOU have greatly deceived this people and Yahvshalam, saying, you shall have shalom; whereas the sword reaches to the life.

Yirmiyah: 4:11: At that time shall it be said to this people and to Yahvshalam, A dry wind of the high places in the wilderness toward the daughter of MY people, not to fan, nor to cleanse,

Yirmiyah: 4:12: Even a full wind from those places shall come to me: now also will I give sentence against them.

Yirmiyah: 4:13: Observe he shall come up as clouds, and his chariots shall be as a whirlwind: his horses are swifter than eagles.  Woe to us, for we are spoiled!

 

Notice the “Woe” in verse 13. Refer to Revelation:


Page 45

{Revelation: 9:12: One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.}

 

In order to understand Yirmiyah and all the nabiym you have to believe and study Revelation and vise a versa. There are two “Woes” that take place in the “Great Tribulation”. The 1st Woe begins when the 5th seal is open, which sounds the fifth trumpet/shophar; this begins the “Great Tribulation”. The 2nd Woe comes in the 2nd half of the “Great Tribulation”, which is caused when the 6th seal is open, which causes the 6th trumpet/shophar to be blown.

This is what the inhabitants of Yahvshalam need to do to be saved:

 

Yirmiyah: 4:14: O Yahvshalam, wash your heart from wickedness, that you be saved.  How long will your vain thoughts lodge within you?

Yirmiyah: 4:15: For a voice declares from Dan, and publish affliction from mount Ephrayim.

 

From E-Sword Strong’s Hebrew Concordance the word “publish”:

 

H8085

שׁמע

shâma‛

shaw-mah'

A primitive root; to hear intelligently (often with implication of attention, obedience, etc.; causatively to tell, etc.): -  X attentively, call (gather) together, X carefully, X certainly, consent, consider, be content, declare, X diligently, discern, give ear, (cause to, let, make to) hear (-ken, tell), X indeed, listen, make (a) noise, (be) obedient, obey, perceive, (make a) proclaim (-ation), publish, regard, report, shew (forth), (make a) sound, X surely, tell, understand, whosoever [heareth], witness.

 

I don’t know exactly what this verse of naba/foretelling is referring to in verse 15. Sense I believe the UK is Ephrayim I do believe the fact that the King James Bible was published in Great Britain originally has something to do with the phrase “...publish affliction from mount Ephrayim”. It has been through what YaHVeH has done by controlling the king’s heart (Proverbs 21:1) to have the word of the nabiym/foretellers so the entire world can read what will be done to Yahvshalam. I believe the verse has a dual foretelling fulfillment; first in the way it was at the time of the nabiy, and will be carried out and is being carried out in our time. I’m not saying the KJV is the best translation out there, but it has been the publication most widely used in the UK and USA for many generations.

 

This quote is from JAMIESON/FAUSSET/BROWN A COMMENTARY CRITICAL, EXPERIMENTAL, AND PRACTICAL, VOLUME II PART II PAGE 14 (edited):


Page 46


15. For a voice declareth from Dan. The connection is: There is danger in delay: for the voice of a messenger announces the approach of the Chaldean enemy from Dan, the northern frontier of Pelesheth/Palestine (ch. viii. 16; cf. v. 6; ch. i. 14). affliction from mount Ephrayim – which borders closely on Yahudah; so that the foe is coming nearer and nearer. Dan and Bethel in Ephrayim were the two places where Yarobam/Jeroboam set up the idolatrous calves (1 Melekiym/1 Ki. Xii. 29); so Dan is the quarter from which the foe comes – just retribution.



Yirmiyah: 4:16: Make you mention to the nations; observe, publish against Yahvshalam, that watchers come from a far country, and give out their voice against the cities of Yahudah.


 

I believe these “watchers” are the two witnesses spoken of in Revelation chapter 11. To me the verse is implying that these “watchers” might be coming from a different nation.

 

Yirmiyah: 4:17: As keepers of a field, are they against her round about; because she has been rebellious against ME, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 4:18: Your way and your doings have procured these things to you; this is your wickedness, because it is bitter, because it reaches to your heart.

Yirmiyah: 4:19: My bowels, my bowels!  I am pained at my very heart; my heart makes a noise in me; I cannot hold my tongue, because you have heard, O my life, the sound of the trumpet/shophar, the alarm of war.

 

Verse 19 Yirmiyah is stressed from the war that is going to take place. Notice the trumpet/shophar. I believe this is connected with the 5th seal, and trumpet/shophar 1st Woe, and 6th seal, and trumpet/shophar 2nd Woe, which is the Great Tribulation.

 

Yirmiyah: 4:20: Destruction upon destruction is cried; for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are MY tents spoiled, and MY curtains in a moment.

Yirmiyah: 4:21: How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet/shophar?

Yirmiyah: 4:22: For MY people are silly, they have not known ME; they are foolish beniym, and they have no understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do right they have no knowledge.

 

It seems to me verse 19 – 21 is coming from Yirmiyah’s perspective, than, when we come to verse 22, it switches to YaHVeH’s perspective.

 

From E-Sword Strong’s Hebrew Concordance the word KJV used was “sottish”, which is an old English word, I have replaced with “foolish”:

The Great Tribulation is comparable to in the Beginning/B’reshiyth

 

Yirmiyah: 4:23: I beheld the earth, and, observe, it was without form, and void; and the Shamayim, and they had no light.

 

{B’reshiyth/Genesis: 1:2: and the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep.  And the Ruach of Elohiym moved on the face of the waters.}

 

I have noticed this verse goes back to the beginning, the beginning of the book of B’reshiyth. The analogy is clear to me. The last days of this age are comparable as when creation began. The same battle fought with Satan that caused the earth and the universe to be without form and void is being fought once again. It really is no battle for YaHVeH, but a temper tantrum of a spoiled, vain, jealous cast down spirit being/angel (Yashayah 14:12 – 14; Yechizkiyah 28:12 – 15; Raz Galah/Revelation 9:1-2; 12: 3-4, 7 – 9, 12-13, 15 – 17).

 

Yirmiyah: 4:24: I noticed the mountains, and, observed, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.

Yirmiyah: 4:25: I noticed, and, observed, there was no adam/man, and all the birds of the shameh were fled.

Yirmiyah: 4:26: I looked, and, observed, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities of it were broken down at the presence of YaHVeH, and by HIS Fierce Anger.

 

Verse 26 I believe is coming from the prospective of after the Great Tribulation (5 seal, 5th trumpet and 1st Woe; 6th seal, 6th trumpet and 2nd Woe) is over and after the wrath of the Lamb is complete (7th trumpet 3rd Woe.)

 

Yirmiyah: 4:27: For this has YaHVeH said, the entire land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.

Yirmiyah: 4:28: For this shall the earth/erets mourn, and the shamayim above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent; neither will I turn back from it.

 

Verse 29 begins speaking about the Great Tribulation again:


Page 48


Yirmiyah: 4:29: The entire city shall flee for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen; they shall go into thickets, and climb up on the rocks: every city shall be forsaken, and not a man dwells in it.

Yirmiyah: 4:30: And when you are spoiled, what will you do?  Though you clothe yourself with crimson, though you deck with ornaments of gold, though you revile your face with painting, in vain shall you make yourself fair; your lovers will despise you, they will seek your life.

 

The “lovers” mentioned here are Yahudah’s and the House of Yisrael’s/UK and USA allies that have turned against her/them.

 

Yirmiyah: 4:31: For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that brings forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Ziyon that bemoan herself, that spread her hands, saying, Woe is me now!  For my life is wearied because of murderers.

 

After the Great Tribulation of the woman we (YaHVeH’s Ekklesia/kara yaza/called out/Body of Yahshua/Male child being born) will be born into the established Kingdom of YaHVeH. See article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/42womanofrevelation12.htm

 

{1Thesolonians: 5:3: For when they shall say, Peace/Shalom and safety; then sudden destruction comes on them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

 

Revelation: 12:1: And there appeared a great wonder in shameh; a woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

 

Revelation: 12:4: And his tail drew the third part of the stars of shameh, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.}

Yirmiyah: 5:1: Run you to and fro through the streets of Yahvshalam, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places of it, if you can find a man, if there be any that executes judgment, that seeks the truth; and I will pardon it.


Page 49

{B’reshiyth/Genesis: 18:20: And YaHVeH said, because the cry of Sodom/Sedom and Gomorrah/Amorah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;

B’reshiyth: 18:21: I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come to ME; and if not, I will know...

 

B’reshiyth: 18:23: And Abraham came near, and said, Will YOU also destroy the righteous with the wicked…

 

B’reshiyth: 18:32: And He said Oh let not the Rabbi/Iyshiy/Master be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Perhaps ten shall be found there.  And HE said, I will not destroy it for ten's sake.

B’reshiyth: 18:33: And YaHVeH went HIS way, as soon as HE had left communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.}

 

Yirmiyah: 5:2: And though they say, YaHVeH lives; surely they swear falsely.

Yirmiyah: 5:3: O YaHVeH, are not YOUR Eyes on the truth?  YOU have stricken them, but they have not grieved; YOU have consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.

 

Verse 3 notice the phrase “they have made their faces harder than a rock” this is a reference to the stone tablets and the children of Yisrael not wanting to receive that torah/law. The stone tablets represent the hardness of our hearts (minds) not wanting to accept that law. It’s the way we are before YaHVeH draws us to HIS Ben Yahshua (Romans 8:7; Zech. 7:12). This torah was placed INSIDE the ark (Shemoth/Exodus 20; 31:18; 1 Melekiym/1 Kings 8:9; Rev. 11:19; 12:17; 14:12).

 

Yirmiyah: 5:4: Therefore I said, surely these are poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of YaHVeH, nor the judgment of their Elohiym.

 

{Tehiyliym/Psalms: 18:22: for all HIS judgments were before me and I did not put away HIS statutes from me.

 

Tehiyliym: 89:30: If his children forsake MY law/torah, and walk not in MY judgments;

Tehiyliym: 89:31: If they break MY statutes, and keep not MY commandments/mitzvah;

Tehiyliym: 89:32: Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.}

 

Yirmiyah: 5:5: I will get me to the great men, and will speak to them; for they have known the way of YaHVeH, and the judgment of their Elohiym: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the restraints.

 

Yirmiyah is like most who want to believe that there is somebody who wants to do right, he says he will go to the people in authority (“great men”), surely they will be doing right. But if you notice the last sentence in verse 5 these “great men” are no different than everybody else, they are just as corrupt.


Page 50

Yirmiyah: 5:6: Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, and a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goes out there shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased.

 

Now it’s important to focus in on this description in verse 6. Here again YaHVeH mentions “a lion” (Yirmiyah. 4:7) but HE also adds “a leopard” to the devouring animals that prey after Yahvshalam:

 

{Daniel: 7:4:  The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings of it were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.}

 

You cannot forget the vision that YaHVeH caused Daniel to have in Daniel Chapter 7. I have already shown you the lion now let’s see the leopard:

 

{Daniel: 7:6: After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.}

 

The leopard in Yirmiyah 5:6: is speaking of Alexander the Great and his four generals, which are the four wings of a fowl. Wings are a symbol for the transporting of the Babylonian system that started with king Nebuchadnezzar. The wings on the animal symbolize the transporting of the power and influence of that kingdom.

 

**Notice in verse six the Word of YaHVeH names two of the animals that make up part of the beasts in Daniel chapter 7. Why HE used the wolf instead of the bear I’m not really sure, I can only speculate that the wolf was a different nation other than what the bear represented, which was the Medes and the Persians. Now sense this Word in Yirmiyah was given before the captivity of the House of Yisrael the wolf might have represented the Assyrian nation, from my studies I haven’t seen any evidence of that; if you think of Rome and the story of Romulus and Remus they were suckled by a wolf, the understanding becomes clearer. Verse 6 might have had more of a time a head meaning or foretelling of the House of Yisrael’s captivity after the Assyrian captivity.


Page 51

Statue depicting Romulus and Remus suckling from a she/woman-wolf; remember Iyzebel/Jezebel (Revelation 17:3)


When we look into history and the symbolism of the feet of the statue of Daniel chapter 2 it becomes clearer to me that this was a foretelling of the House of Yisrael and Yahudah’s captivity under the Roman system. Remember the clay of the feet of Daniel represent’s the children of Yisrael see Yashayah chapter 64 verse 8. Not just the children of Yisrael physical enslavement under the Roman system but their enslavement in using it to govern by. Remember Revelation/Raz Galah chapter 13 starting in verse 11; it is at this point the Roman system began to be ruled religiously by Catholicism in the west and Orthodoxy in the east. The Vatican, ruthlessly forced people to worship and accept the Roman Image of government. It is this same image of government that the USA and majority of the world uses. The word Vatican comes from the Latin word “vatic” an “anus” [Vaticanus], which means “foretelling” and an “old hag”, as in an old woman. Remember while I was quoting from the book The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon (Chapter XX page 636-637) I explained what the word Aruspices/Ha-rus-pex means. The ancient pagan Roman priest foretold the time a head by reading entrails of animals on the very hill that the abominable Vatican is founded on, not to mention the woman of Revelation 17 and part of the word of Vaticanus means an old hag/an old evil woman.

 

Yirmiyah: 5:7: How shall I pardon you for this?  Your children have forsaken ME, and sworn by them that are no elohiym: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.



Refer to Revelation chapter 17. There is something you have to understand about the nabiy/foretellers since Yahshua has come, something changed from the time the body of Yahshua was first started in Acts 2 to our present day. Yahshua warned about it in Matthew 24:5. YaHVeH reveals this deception in the form of two horns that look like a lamb but have the voice of the dragon (Revelation/Raz Galah 13:11). Lamb is the symbol for Yahshua the Messiyah (Yohn 1:29) and dragon is the symbol for Satan (Rev. 12:9), this deception by Satan is being carried out by people who claim they believe in Yahshua the Messiyah, but their fruits show otherwise (Matthew 7:20). This deception can begin to be seen most clearly at the time of Constantine I. It is from Constantine that “Christianity” has received her doctrine.


Page 52


Yirmiyah: 5:8: They were as fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbour's wife.

Yirmiyah: 5:9: Shall I not visit for these things?  Said YaHVeH: and shall not MY life be avenged on such a nation as this?

Yirmiyah: 5:10: Go you all up on her walls, and destroy; but make not a full end: take away her battlements; for they are not YaHVeH's.

 

Notice verse 10 YaHVeH says that their defences are not from HIM. So, no matter what modern day weapon they use, using today’s technology for war, it will not protect them (Yirmiyah 17:5).

 

Yirmiyah: 5:11: For the house of Yisrael and the house of Yahudah have dealt very treacherously against ME, said YaHVeH.

 

Verse 11 clearly reveals that the House of Yisrael and House of Yahudah are two distinct and separate nations.


Yirmiyah: 5:12: they have spoken falsely of YaHVeH, and have said, 'He will do nothing; no evil will come on us, nor shall we see sword or famine. 

Yirmiyah: 5:13: The nabiym/ prophets/foretellers will become wind; the word is not in them. This will be done to them!' 

 

Verse 13 means that all the foretelling done by the Christian/House of Yisrael and Judaism/House of Yudah prophets will have no value and or worth. What they say will fail and because they have a form of righteousness (2 Tim. 3:5) that takes certain principles out of YaHVeH’s Law/Torah, but replaces HIS Torah with their traditions/pagan customs they do not have YaHVeH’s Word in them (Mark 7:7).

 

Who is the Word of YaHVeH?


{Yohn/Yahvchanan: 1:1: in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohiym, and the Word was Elohiym.

Yohn: 1:2: The same was in the beginning with Elohiym.

Yohn: 1:3: All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made.

 

Yohn: 1:10: He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not.

 

Yohn: 1:14: And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His splendor, the splendor as of the only begotten of the FATHER,) full of favor and truth.

 

Yohn: 1:17: For the torah was given by Mosheh/Moses, but favor and truth came by Yahshua Messiyah.}


Page 53



Verse 13 show that these people don’t really believe in Yahshua the Messiah even though “many” (Mat. 24:5; Rev. 13:11) of them claim they do. You need to understand, today there are unbelieving Orthodox Yudiym (“Jews”) and unbelieving Christians (the House of Yisrael is steeped in Christian doctrine).

 

Yirmiyah: 5:14: Therefore this says YaHVeH, the Elohiym of hosts, "Because they have spoken this word, observe, I am making MY words in your mouth a fire, and this people wood, and the fire shall devour them. 

 

{Revelation: 11:5: And if any man will hurt them, fire proceeds out of their mouth, and devours their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.}

 

Yirmiyah: 5:15: Observe, I am bringing on you a nation from afar, O house of Yisrael, says YaHVeH. It is an enduring nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know, nor can you understand what they say.

Yirmiyah: 5:16: their quiver is like an open tomb, they are all mighty men. 

Yirmiyah: 5:17: They shall eat up your harvest and your food; they shall eat up your beniym and your daughters; they shall eat up your flocks and your herds; they shall eat up your vines and your fig trees; your fortified cities in which you trust they shall destroy with the sword."

 

Refer to Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed chapter 11.


Yirmiyah: 5:18: "But even in those days, says YaHVeH, I will not make a full end of you. 

Yirmiyah: 5:19 And when your people say, 'Why has YaHVeH our Elohiym done all these things to us?' you shall say to them, 'As you have forsaken me and served foreign gods/idols in your land, so you shall serve strangers in a land that is not yours.'" 

Yirmiyah: 5:20: Declare this in the house of Ya`akob, proclaim it in Yudah: 

 

It is strange how verse 20 is worded. The House of Ya`akob includes all the tribes and Yahudah is just two tribes, the Yudiym. House of Ya`akob indicates all the tribes, when the Word of YaHVeH says publish in Yahudah HE is indicating what HE has already done in 1 Melekiym/I Kings 11 by dividing the House of Yisrael and House of Yahudah into two separate nations. The House of Yahudah is the only visible house/nation left for the entire world to see, and YaHVeH has placed them back into parts of the Promised Land to fulfill HIS naba/foretelling in HIS Word. Of course the House of Yahudah also has the tribe of Benjamin (The Messenger Paul/Shaul/Saul was of this tribe Romans 11:1) in it along with a small remnant of each of the tribes (1 Melekiym/I Kings 12:17).


Page 54

My point being is that the end time message that will be preached before the return of Yahshua the Messiyah in the clouds to this earth will be proclaimed (“publish”) in Yahvshalam, refer to Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed 11.

 

Yirmiyah: 5:21: "Hear this, O foolish and senseless people, who have eyes, but see not, who have ears, but hear not. 

 

{Yasha`Yah /Isaiah: 6:9: And HE said, Go, and tell this people, Hear you indeed, but understand not; and see you indeed, but perceive not.

Yasha`Yah: 6:10: Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; unless they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.

Yasha`Yah: 6:11: Then said I, Rabbi, how long?  And HE answered, until the cities are wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man and the land is utterly desolate,

Yasha`Yah: 6:12: And YaHVeH has removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the middle of the land.

Yasha`Yah: 6:13: But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the kodesh seed shall be the substance of it.}

 

Yirmiyah: 5:22: Do you not fear ME? Says YaHVeH; Do you not tremble before ME? I placed the sand as the bound for the sea, a perpetual barrier which it cannot pass; though the waves toss, they cannot prevail, though they roar, they cannot pass over it. 

 

YaHVeH proclaims HIS power and might!



Yirmiyah: 5:23: But this people have a stubborn and rebellious heart; they have turned aside and gone away.

Yirmiyah: 5:24: They do not say in their hearts, 'Let us fear YaHVeH our Elohiym, who gives the rain in its season, the autumn rain and the spring rain, and keeps for us the weeks appointed for the harvest.' 

 

Verses 23 and 24 is Referring to V`yakra/Leviticus chapter 23.

 

From E-Sword Strong’s Concordance the Iybriy/Hebrew word for “appointed”:

 

H2708

חקּה

chûqqâh

Khook-kaw'

Feminine of H2706, and meaning substantially the same: - appointed, custom, manner, ordinance, site, statute.


Page 55

The word ordinance popped into my head the other day (today is 08/08/6986 7th day of the week 10/23/04) and now I don’t think it was just a coincidence. I have not clearly understood what ordinance really meant until today. But I clearly understand now it does revolve around YaHVeH’s Sabbaths and the way HE tells time. YaHVeH counts the beginning of the year in the time we call spring around the end of 3rd Babylonian month beginning of the 4th Babylonian month on the Gregorian calendar (Gregorian/Christian/Roman/Babylonian/Pagan/Demonic calendar revolves around a solar year and begins in the winter in the month named after a pagan idol “January”). YaHVeH starts the month with the first crescent new moon/Chodesh. HE begins the new day at sundown.

 

This is from Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia:

 

A calendar is a system, defined by rules, for designating the year, dividing it into smaller units, and assigning days to those units; it is also used for determining the dates of civil and religious holidays. The rudiments of a calendric system may have been constructed as long ago as 2000 ©, when stone alignments were used, it is believed, to determine the length of the solar year by marking the progress of the Sun along the horizon.

 

Modern international society requires that the same civil calendar be used worldwide. The civil calendar so used is the Gregorian calendar, which was introduced in 1582. The average length of a Gregorian year is close to that of the solar year, or tropical year, about 365.2422 mean solar days, so that the seasons begin on about the same dates each year. The Gregorian calendar, which is derived from ancient calendars, is a determinate calendar in that is, it is defined solely by numerical rules and can be formed for any year in advance. This was not generally true for ancient calendars, which depended on observational rules.


Ancient Calendars

 

The earliest complete calendars were probably based on lunar observations. The Moon's phases occur over an easily observed interval, the month; religious authorities declared a month to have begun when they first saw the new crescent Moon. During cloudy weather, when it was impossible to see the Moon, the beginning of the month was determined by calculation. The interval from new moon to new moon, called a synodic month, is about 29.53 days. Hence, calendar months contained either 29 or 30 days. Twelve lunar months, which total 354.36 days, form a lunar year, almost 11 days shorter than a tropical year.

 

A lunar year is not suitable for agricultural purposes. To keep in step with the Sun, lunar-solar calendars were formed by adding an additional (leap) month when the observation of crops made it seem necessary. Hundreds of such calendars, with variations, were formed at various times in such different areas as Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome, India, and China. The month was not always based on the phases of the Moon; the Maya calendar divided the year into 18 20-day months, with a 5-day period at the end.

The Roman calendar was in error by several months during the reign of Julius Caesar, who recognized the need for a stable, predictable calendar and formed one with the help of an astronomer, Sosigenes. The year 46 © was given 445 days, to compensate for past errors, and every common year thereafter was to have 365 days. Every fourth year, starting with 45 ©, was to be designated a leap year of 366 days, during which February, which commonly had 28 days, was extended by one day. The rule was not correctly applied, but the calendar was corrected by Augustus Caesar by ¥ 8.

 

Gregorian Calendar

 

The Julian leap-year rule created 3 leap years too many in every period of 385 years. As a result, the actual occurrence of the equinoxes and solstices drifted away from their assigned calendar dates. As the date of the spring equinox determines that of Easter, the church was concerned, and Pope Gregory XIII, with the help of an astronomer, Christopher Clavius, introduced what is now called the Gregorian calendar. Thursday, Oct. 4, 1582 (Julian), was followed by Friday, Oct. 15, 1582 (Gregorian). Leap years occurred in years exactly divisible by four, except that years ending in 00 had to be divisible by 400. Thus, 1600, 1984, and 2000 were leap years, but 1800 and 1900 were not.


The Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar, calculated without reference to the Moon. The methods it uses to determine the dates of Easter and other Christian holidays, however, are based on both solar and lunar calculations. The calendar was quickly adopted by Roman Catholic countries and, eventually, by every Western country and Japan, Egypt, and China.

 

Year Beginning

 

The Roman year originally began in March; December, whose name is derived from the Latin word for "ten," was the tenth month of the year. In 153 ©, Roman consuls began taking office on January 1, which became the beginning of the year. This practice was retained in the Julian and Gregorian calendars, although other starting dates continued to be used. England and its colonies, for example, used March 25 and the Julian reckoning until 1752. Thus, George Washington was officially born on Feb. 11, 1731, Old Style (O.S.); this is Feb. 22, 1732, Gregorian, or New Style (N.S.).

 

The Months

 

In every Western European language, the names of the months retain their Roman origin. English names are January, for Janus, god of beginning and endings; February, derived from Februalia, a time for religious atonement; March, for Mars, the god of war; April, from aperire, Latin for "to open" (as, spring flowers); May, for Maia, the goddess of plant growth; June, from juvenis, "youth"; July, for Julius Caesar; August, for Augustus, first Roman emperor; September, from septem, "seven"; October, November, and December, from octo, novem, and decem, "eight," "nine," and "ten." (The earliest Latin calendar had only 10 months, with September as the 7th month and December the 10th.)


Page 57

Week

 

The Babylonians used a non-astronomical, 7-day interval, the week, which was adopted by the Jews. The seventh day, the Sabbath, was given a religious significance. Independently, the Romans associated a cycle of 7 days with the Sun, the Moon, and the five known planets. Their names became attached to the days of the week: Sunday (dies solis, "Sun's day"), Monday (dies lunae, "Moon's day"), and Saturday (dies Saturni, "Saturn's day") retain names derived directly from the Roman culture, and Tuesday ("Tiw's day"), Wednesday ("Woden's day"), Thursday ("Thor's day"), and Friday ("Frigg's day") are derived from the Germanic equivalents of Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, and Venus, respectively.



Year

 

In ancient calendars, years were generally numbered according to the year of a ruler's reign. About ¥ 525, a monk named Dionysius Exiguus suggested that years be counted from the birth of Christ, which was designated ¥ (anno Domini, "the year of the Lord") 1. This proposal came to be adopted throughout Christendom during the next 500 years. The year before ¥ 1 is designated 1 © (before Christ). The 1st century of the Christian Era began in ¥ 1, the 2d in ¥ 101; the 21st will begin in 2001, although the advent of new millennium will be widely celebrated at the start of 2000. Because a great deal of computer software uses only a two-digit shorthand for dates, the year 2000 would be registered as "00" and interpreted by computers as 1900 unless this problem is resolved beforehand (see year 2000 problem).

 

The Hebrew Calendar

 

The Hebrew calendar in use today begins at the Creation, which is calculated to have occurred 3,760 years before the Christian era. The week consists of 7 days, ending with the Sabbath, Saturday; the year consists of 12 lunar monthsÑTishri, Cheshvan, Kislev, Tebet, Shebat, Adar, Nisan, Iyar, Sivan, Tammuz, Ab, and ElulÑwhich are alternately 29 and 30 days long. Because a year is some 11 days longer than 12 lunar months, a 13th month, ve-Adar, is added seven times during every 19-year cycle.

 

The Islamic Calendar

 

Muslims begin their calendar at the day and year (July 16, 622, by the Gregorian calendar) when Muhammad fled from Mecca to Medina. There are 12 lunar months of alternate 30 and 29 days, making the year only 354 days long, so the months move backward through all the seasons and complete a cycle every 32Å years. The months are Muharram, Safar, Rabi I, Rabi II, Jumada I, Jumada II, Rajab, Shaban, Ramadan, Shawwal, Zulkadah, and Zulhijjah.

Calendar Reform

 

Many proposals have been made for calendar improvement. They go under such names as "universal calendar" and "perpetual calendar," and even a "fixed calendar" consisting of 13 equal months of 28 days. While they do offer advantages of greater simplicity for statistical handling, cultural resistance to such change is strong. In addition, correcting some problems invariably causes others, especially those connected with religious holidays.

 

During the French Revolution a reformed calendar rid of religious connections was in fact adopted having a 10-day week and 12 months of 30 days. The days left at year's end were given over to vacations and celebrations. The calendar began on Sept. 22, 1792, the day the Republic was proclaimed. The months were called VendŽmiaire (vintage), Brumaire (mist), Frimaire (frost), Niv™se (snow), Pluvi™se (rain), Vent™se (wind), Germinal (sprouting time), FlorŽal (blossom), Prairial (meadow), Messidor (harvest), Thermidor (heat), and Fructidor (fruit). France returned to the Gregorian calendar on Jan. 1, 1806, under Napoleon I.

As you can clearly see the modern day calendar is an abomination to YaHVeH because it forsakes HIS way of keeping track of time and the seasons and replaces it with Demonic/Rebellious Angels man made idolatrous pagan traditions, which fulfills the foretelling of Daniel 7:25; the Body of Yahshua kept in YaHVeH’s name does not use this pagan Christian Demonic motivated calendar. We keep track of time by the new Chodesh and the Abib of the barley in the Promised Land (Shemoth/Exodus 12).

CALENDAR, HISTORY OF THE



People rely on clocks and calendars to keep track of time. Clocks measure small units of time – seconds, minutes, and hours. Calendars take up where clocks leave off. They help us keep track of days, weeks, months, and years.


Page 59


Time as measured by clocks is man-made. There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, and 24 hours in a day because it is convenient to have it that way. But most units of time measured by a calendar are not just “made up.” They have to do with certain celestial events. A day is the amount of time it takes the earth to rotate once on it axis. A month is approximately the time it takes the moon to complete its full cycle (from new moon to new moon). A year is based on the time it takes the earth to travel once around the sun. The 7-day week of our present-day calendar is taken from the ancient Hebrew calendar. This division of time is mentioned in the Bible. The Hebrews got the idea of a 7-day week from the Babylonians. Some people believe that the Babylonians chose a division of 7 days to represent the seven heavenly bodies (the sun, the moon, and five planets) that are visible to the naked eye, which they worshiped as gods.

Page 60

At first men kept track of time by noting natural events – the rising of the sun, the length of shadows, the phase of the moon, or the position of a bright star or group of stars. When civilization grew complicated, more exact ways of measuring time were needed. The trouble was that the units of time based on the movements of the moon and sun didn’t divide evenly into one another. It takes a little less than 3651/4 days for the earth to make one revolution round the sun. And a month is about 291/2 days long. Because there wasn’t an even number of days in a month or in a year, adjustments had to be made.

 

THE ROMAN CALENDAR

 

We took our calendar from the Romans. Very early in their history, the Romans began basing their calendar on the idea that 12 lunar months make a year. Each lunar month (from new moon to new moon) is about 291/2 days, so the Roman year came to 354 days. But the true solar year (the time it takes the earth to circle the sun) is just under 3651/4 days. The Romans made up for the difference by adding an extra month every few years.


When Julius Caesar rule Rome, he found that the calendar was wrong by 80 days. The calendar said it was spring but the season was really midwinter. Caesar asked the advice of a mathematician, Sosigenes, who told him the real year was almost 3651/4 days long. So Caesar ordered that each year should be 365 days, with an extra day added in February every fourth year (leap year) to make the calendar come out right. Leap years would always be divisible by four. Caesar also gave up the lunar month and set a month’s length at 30 or 31 days. Only February remained less than 30 days long.

 

Caesar started his new calendar (called the Julian calendar) in 46 B.C. This year was referred to as the year of confusion. Some people believe he moved New Year’s Day from March 1 to January 1. He added 2 months between November and December, and another after February. As a result, the year 46 B.C. lasted 445 days. After that, however, his 365-day calendar ran so smoothly that it kept time with the seasons for many centuries.


POPE GREGORY CHANGES THE CALENDAR

 

But there was still a small mistake in this Julian calendar. The sun’s year is really 11 minutes and 14 seconds shorter than the 3651/4-day year recommended by Sosigenes. In 1600 years this added up to 10 days, so that the vernal equinox, the first day of the spring (when the sun has reached the celestial equator and day and night are equal in length), occurred earlier and earlier. By 1582 it fell on March 11 instead of March 21. Pope Gregory XIII took the advice of the astronomer Christopher Clavius. He corrected the mistakes by dropping 10 days, so that the day after October 4, 1582, was October 15. To keep the error from happening again, he decreed that century years (the first year in each century), even though divisible by four, should not have the extra day in February unless they could be divided by 400. Thus, A.D. 1900 was not a leap year, but A.D. 2000 will be.


Page 61

Catholic countries adopted the Gregorian calendar (named for Pope Gregory), but Protestant and Greek Orthodox countries did not. One hundred and seventy years later England and her American colonies found that their calendar had slipped away from the sun’s time by 11 days. They dropped these days in 1752, adopting the Gregorian calendar. Thus Washington’s Birthday is February 22 (New Style), but he was really born on February 11 (Old Style). Russia did not change its calendar until 1918, and Rumania not until 1924. That is why you may find two different dates given for some historical events.

 

People are still trying to reform the calendar, but so far we continue to use the Roman calendar as it was improved by Pope Gregory XIII.

Update 11/01/6997* [5777] 7th day of the week/Shabbat

 

The calendar that “Judaism” observes today is NOT the same as what the ancient children of Yisrael observed. The calendar that “Judaism” observes today was invented by Hillel II and is not Scriptural: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillel_II

 

The Body of Yahvshua kept in YaHVeH’s name is very aware of this and we do not observe Hillel II’s calendar. We use Shemot/Exodus chapter 12 that clearly states that the observance of the abib of the barley in the Promised Land to begin the year and not the Spring Equinox. There is still debate and confusion on, which moon to observe whether it is the sighting of the first sliver of the moon or the zero visibility of the moon. I observe the zero visibility of the moon and you can read this article to understand why:

 

https://www.makethewaystraight.com/newmoonchodeshmonth.htm


Comment:


I want to add that the writer of this article said that the Babylonians were responsible for the 7-day week; nothing could be farther from the truth. YaHVeH is responsible for the 7-day week and the new moons and the earth’s cycle around the sun (B`reshiyth/Genesis.1: 14). HE designated from the beginning of creation the times and seasons, and revealed those times and seasons again to the children of Yisrael when HE freed them from Egypt (Shemot/Exodus 16; V`yakra/Leviticus 23).

 

There are some who call on YaHVeH’s name but insist that the 7th day that many unbelieving Yudiym keep today and many people who believe in Yahshua as the Messiyah and call on His Hebrew/Iybriy name keep is in error. They also claim that the time that Yahshua walked on the earth in the flesh and the weekly Sabbath He was observing has changed and not the same as it is kept today. These same people track the weekly 7th day Sabbath by the new Chodesh, which nowhere in scripture was this method given to keep track of the weekly 7th day Sabbath (See V`yakra/Leviticus 23). They forget that the days of the week began before the sun, moon and stars were created; these lights were not made until the fourth day of creation week (see B`reshiyth 1:14 – 19). Also the weekly 7th day Sabbath can be witnessed at the time when Yahshua the Messiyah was offered as the Lamb of YaHVeH at Passover. If you study the four witnesses erroneously call “gospels” you will see that there are two Sabbath’s kept almost back to back during this time (see Mark 16:1-2). The Messiyah was hung on the tree/stake on the 14th of Abib, which fell on the fourth day of the week at that time, which the pagans refer to as “Wednesday” today (the 15th of Abib was an annual Sabbath), and He was raised from the dead on the 17th, which the pagans refer to as “Saturday”, which is the Sabbath the 7th day of the week. Also if you read and study Shemot chapter 16 where the weekly Sabbath had to be revealed to the children of Yisrael again because they lost track of it during their captivity in Egypt, nowhere does the Word of YaHVeH use the Chodesh to instruct them in keeping track of it; HE used a miracle to reveal when this time fell and not the visible signs of the light in the sky.


Page 62


In Shemot chapter 16 verse 1 the Word of YaHVeH recorded it was the 15th day of the 2nd Chodesh. The question must be asked was this the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th day of the week? As far as I can determine by reading the entire chapter it looks like it was the 3rd day of the week. Verse 13 looks to me that this begins the 16th of the 2nd Chodesh. Verse 20 looks like this day began the 17th day of the 2nd Chodesh. Verse 22 clearly says it was the 6th day of the week, which looks like to me it began on the 18th day of the 2nd Chodesh. Verse 24 begins the Sabbath, which looks like to me it began on the 19th day of the 2nd Chodesh; so, the 15th would’ve been the 3rd day of the week, the 16th the 4th day of the week, the 17th the 5th day of the week, the 18th the 6th day of the week and the 19th the 7th day of the week, which began the weekly 7th day Sabbath.

 

I’ve come to understand Shemot 16 in this way because of what each of these verses clearly says:


{Shemoth: 16:1:  And they took their journey from Eylim, and all the congregation of the beniym of Yisrael came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Eylim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.}

 

Verse 1 clearly determines the Chodesh and the day of the Month/Chodesh that this revealing began. Verses 1 thru 12 are the verses that YaHVeH describes what HE was going to do.

 

{Shemoth: 16:13:  And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.}

 

Verse 13 clearly says “…at even…” which would’ve brought in the next day, which would be the 16th day of the 2nd Chodesh. Verse 13 also says “…in the morning…”, so it is compacting the entire day into this one verse. Verses 14 thru 19 describes what the beniym of Yisrael did during this time in gathering what they needed and verse 19 Mosheh warns them not to let the manna lay up until morning of the next day.


Page 63

{Shemoth: 16:20:  Notwithstanding they did not listen to Mosheh; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank: and Mosheh was angry with them.}

 

Verse 20 clearly makes it plain that the very next day, which would be the 17th day of the 2nd Chodesh, after Mosheh had warned the people not to let the manna lay up until morning, they did it anyway.  Verse 21 re-enforces that the beniym of Yisrael were gathering it in the morning; it also describes what happened to the manna as the day became hotter, it melted. Does this mean that if the beniym of Yisrael kept the manna cool it would not melt? It must be implying this or how else could it keep until the morning and breed worms?

 

{Shemoth: 16:22:  And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Mosheh.}

 

Verse 22 plainly says “…on the sixth day…” which means this was the 18th day of the 2nd Chodesh and from this point it can be determined what day of the week the 15th day of the 2nd Chodesh was; it was the 3rd day of the week. Verse 23 Mosheh instructs the rulers of the people on how to prepare for the 7th day of the week, which is the Sabbath.

 

{Shemoth: 16:24:  And they laid it up till the morning, as Mosheh ordered: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm in it.}

 

Verse 24 “…they laid it up till the morning…” which establishes the next day of verse 22, which had already established it was the 6th day. This means that the 7th day weekly Sabbath at that time fell on the 19th day of the 2nd Chodesh. Verse 24 also reveals a miracle on this day; the manna did not breed worms, which verified to all the people that this was YaHVeH’s weekly 7th day Sabbath. At this point, if they were obedient believers they would now be able to keep track of YaHVeH’s weekly Sabbath; if they were not obedient than they would lose track of it and disrespect YaHVeH. Verses 25 thru 26 Mosheh re-enforces at what time the manna is to be gathered and when not to.

 

{Shemoth: 16:27:  And it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.}

 

Verse 27 establishes the 2nd weekly 7th day Sabbath after the miracle of the manna not breeding worms, which would be the 26th day of the 2nd Chodesh. This verse also reveals, even after YaHVeH had given an unquestionable sign/wonder/miracle, that many people, no matter how clear the proof, will not submit to or fear YaHVeH, but this will be to their own destruction. Verses 28 thru 30 YaHVeH ask Mosheh how long will the disobedient be allowed to continue to disobey HIM and what the beniym of Yisrael finally did.

Updated 02/09/6995 [5773] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [04/20/13]

 

Yirmiyah: 5:25: Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have held back prosperity since.

Yirmiyah: 5:26: For among MY people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that set snares; they lay a trap, they catch men.

 

Refer to what the chief kohen, Pharisee’s, Sadducee’s and Scribes tried to do to Yahshua if you want to gain a better understanding of verse 26 (Matith`Yah ha Leviy/Matthew 21:46; Yahvchanan-Makabi/Mark 12:13; Luke 20:19; Yahvchanan/Yohn 10:31).

 

Verse 26 application for us today can be easily seen in what the government (Federal/State/Local) does to people in their day to day lives by setting up traffic laws and or speed traps by police departments in the USA to generate revenue/tax. Law upon laws that are made so that there is no way in this world a normal person can remember to obey; which are meant to gain revenue or imprison/kidnap a person (Shemot 21:16), or give some type of excuse or backdoor to gain access to some persons private property and or life. Now the Federal government is going to implement in 2012 in the unrighteous Health Care bill/Obama Snare that was passed recently making it mandatory that everyone participate or be fined $1500 a year. It is not the manmade governments business, if I have health care or not, YaHVeH is my health care and not man!    

 

Yirmiyah: 5:27: As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.

 

Notice how the disobedient people who say the obey YaHVeH become rich due to their wickedness in verse 27. Most have become rich by the labor of other men (Ya`akob/James 5; Yir. 22:13). The stock market is a prime example of this verse being fulfilled today. Most laws in the USA today are not motivated by righteousness (YaHVeH’s Torah), but by economic stimulation.

 

Yirmiyah: 5:28: The wicked have an oily shine: yes, the authorities overlook the actions of the wicked: the authorities judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet the wicked prosper; and the right of the needy do the authorities not judge.

Yirmiyah: 5:29: Shall I not visit for these things?  Said YaHVeH: shall not MY life be avenged on such a nation as this?

Yirmiyah: 5:30: An astonishing and horrible thing is committed in the land;

Yirmiyah: 5:31: The nabiy foretells falsely, and the koheniym bear rule by their ordinance; and MY people love to have it so: and what will you all do in the end of it?

 

Today’s preacher says the law of YaHVeH has been down away. We have vain pagan traditions of men in place of YaHVeH’s Sabbaths.

 

Refer to Matthew 24:15.

Yawd

A primitive word; a hand (the open one (indicating power, means, direction, etc.), in distinction from H3709, the closed one); used (as noun, adverb, etc.) in a great variety of applications, both literally and figuratively, both proximate and remote: -  (+ be) able, X about, + armholes, at, axletree, because of, beside, border, X bounty, + broad, [broken-] handed, X by, charge, coast, + consecrate, + creditor, custody, debt, dominion, X enough, + fellowship, force, X from, hand [-staves, -y work], X he, himself, X in, labour, + large, ledge, [left-] handed, means, X mine, ministry, near, X of, X order, ordinance, X our, parts, pain, power, X presumptuously, service, side, sore, state, stay, draw with strength, stroke, + swear, terror, X thee, X by them, X them-selves, X thine own, X thou, through, X throwing, + thumb, times, X to, X under, X us, X wait on, [way-] side, where, + wide, X with (him, me, you), work, + yield, X your-selves.

 

Notice the word can also mean “ordinance”. This is exactly what “Christianity” has done; they have changed YaHVeH’s ordinances with pagan traditions by changing YaHVeH’s tracking of time, which includes HIS Sabbaths.

From this place Yoab/Yahvab procured a "wise woman," who pretended to be in great affliction, and skillfully made her case known to David. Her address to the king was in the form of an apologue, similar to that of Nathan (2 Shemuel/2 Sam. 12:1-6). The object of Yoab was, by the intervention of this woman, to induce David to bring back Abshalom to Yahvshalam (2 Shemuel/2 Sam. 14:2, 4, 9). This was also the birthplace of the nabiy Amos (1:1). It is now the village of Teku'a, on the top of a hill among ruins, 5 miles south of Beythlechem, and close to Beth-hakkerem ("Herod's mountain").

Yirmiyah: 6:4: Prepare you all war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon.  Woe to us!  For the day goes away, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.

Yirmiyah: 6:5: Arise, and let us go by night, and let us destroy her palaces.

Yirmiyah: 6:6: For this has YaHVeH of hosts said, cut down trees, and cast a mount against Yahvshalam: this is the city to be visited; she is totally oppressive in the middle of her.

Yirmiyah: 6:7: As a fountain casts out her waters, so she casts out her wickedness: violence and spoil is heard in her; before ME continually is grief and wounds.

Yirmiyah: 6:8: Be you instructed, O Yahvshalam, unless MY life departs from you; unless I make you desolate, a land not inhabited.

Yirmiyah: 6:9: This said YaHVeH of hosts; they shall thoroughly glean the remnant of Yisrael as a vine: turn back your hand as a grape gatherer into the baskets.

 

When ever you see the term “uncircumcised ear” or “uncircumcised heart” this is referring to ruach/invisible things, it has nothing to do with circumcision of the flesh, animal sacrifices, diet or hygiene, and it is specifically speaking about the ruach law given at Mount Sinai, which was placed INSIDE the ARK, which if lived by would cause the physical temporal things to fall in proper place:

 

Yirmiyah: 6:10: To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they hear?  Observe, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot listen: observe, the Word of YaHVeH is to them a reproach; they have no delight in it.

Yirmiyah: 6:11: Therefore I am full of the fury of YaHVeH; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out on the children abroad, and on the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.

Yirmiyah: 6:12: And their houses shall be turned to others, with their fields and wives together: for I will stretch out MY Hand on the inhabitants of the land, said YaHVeH.

 

Notice in verses 10 and 12 YaHVeH refers to HIS Ben Yahshua, the “Word” and “Hand” of YaHVeH.

 

As you can see from this verse it is speaking about the Ruach Torah/Law:

 

Yirmiyah: 6:13: For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the nabiy even to the kohen every one deals falsely.

Yirmiyah: 6:14: They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of MY people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.

 

{Daniel: 8:25: And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

 

1Thessolonians: 5:3: For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes on them, as travail on a woman with child; and they shall not escape. }


Page 68

Yirmiyah: 6:15: Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?  No, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, said YaHVeH.

 

I believe we need to include Revelation 17 with this naba/foretelling in Yirmiyah chapter 6. It is correct in describing the Mother of Harlots as the Roman Catholic in the west – Christian Orthodoxy in the east of the European Continent and from them came the Protestant denominations (“Harlots”) that use the same names and or titles, “Jesus, Christ, Lord, God…etc” that there “Mother” uses, and affixes to the Iybriy/Hebrew of the tribe of Yahudah of the root of David Mashiyach these abominable names and titles; and teach disobedience to YaHVeH’s Ruach Law/Torah (Rev. 13:11). I believe they will play a big part in these end time events along with the House of Yudah (Unbelieving “Jews” notice the name is dropped out of the name), allowing pagan customs and worship to be involved with the 3rd temple/heykal that will be built. If you go to Yahvshalam today you will find the establishment of “church” buildings all around Yahvshalam that have been erected by Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant denominations, and other “Christian” sects to keep their pagan custom in place instead of YaHVeH’s Sabbaths (Daniel 7:25; Yashayah 24:5).

If you will notice there are primarily three quarters surrounding the Heykal Mount?

 

  1. The north Moslem quarter. Remember trouble is coming from the north (Yirmiyah 6:1).
  2. The west the Christian and Armenian quarter.
  3. The “Jewish” quarter. Those that that don’t believe in Yahshua the Messiyah.

 

I am beginning to see that these are the unclean spirits like frogs that come out of the dragon, beast and false prophet’s mouth to gather the kings of the earth together to battle against ELSHADDAI (Rev. 16:13-14).

 

Yirmiyah: 6:16: This said YaHVeH, Stand you in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the pleasant way, and walk in it, and you all shall find rest for your lives.  But they said, we will not walk in it.

Yirmiyah: 6:17: Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Listen to the sound of the trumpet. But they said we will not listen.

 

Refer to Revelation 11. I believe these watchmen are the two witnesses.

Yirmiyah: 6:18: Therefore hear, all you nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.

Yirmiyah: 6:19: Hear O earth: observe, I will bring evil on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not listened to MY Words, or to MY Torah, but rejected it.

 

Verse 18 is warning what ever other people are mingled with the children of Yisrael when YaHVeH punishes them, that if they are with them they will be punished also. So, HE is giving fair warning to set your-self apart from them.

 

Yirmiyah: 6:20: To what purpose come there to ME incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country?  Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet to ME.

 

The sacrifice that is now acceptable to YaHVeH today is the lifting up of Yahshua the Messiyah’s name (Yohn 14:13) and obedience to His Ruach Law/Torah. The incense He wants to smell is our prayers Revelation 8:3 and Yirmiyah 7:22 – 23.

 

Yirmiyah: 6:21: Therefore this said YaHVeH, Observe, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people, and the fathers and the beniym together shall fall on them; the neighbor and his friend shall perish.


Page 70



Yirmiyah: 6:22: This said YaHVeH, Observe, a people come from the North Country, and a great nation shall be raised from the sides of the earth.

Yirmiyah: 6:23: They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no compassion; their voice roars like the sea; and they ride on horses, set in array as men for war against you, O daughter of Ziyon.

Topics: She'ba

 

Text:  an oath, seven.

 

(4.): Iybriy/Heb. id. : A kingdom in Arabia Felix. Sheba, in fact, was Saba in Southern Arabia, the Sabaeans of classical geography, who carried on the trade in spices with the other peoples of the ancient world. They were Semites, speaking one of the two main dialects of Himyaritic or South Arabic. Sheba had become a monarchy before the days of Shelomoh/Solomon. Its queen brought him gold, spices, and precious stones (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 10:1-13). She is called by our Rabbi the "queen of the south" (Matith`Yah ha Leviy/Matt. 12:42).

 

Refer to Matthew 24:21; Mark 13:19; Luke 21:22; Revelation 12:2:

 

Yirmiyah: 6:24: We have heard the fame of it: our hands wax feeble: anguish has taken hold of us, and pain, as of a woman in travail.

Yirmiyah: 6:25: Go not out into the field, or walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and fear is on every side.


Yirmiyah: 6:26: O daughter of MY people, gird you with sackcloth, and wallow your-self in ashes: make you mourning, as for an only ben, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come on us.


Yirmiyah: 6:27: I have set you for a tower and a fortress among MY people that you know and try their way.

 

The Word of YaHVeH in verse 27 is speaking about the city of Yahvshalam, and HE has allowed it to be erected again before the return of Yahshua so that HIS people can be tested to see where their heart is.

 

Yirmiyah: 6:28: They are all grievous revolters, walking with slanders: they are brass and iron; they are all corrupters.

 

Notice verse 28 makes mention of the metals brass and iron; this is YaHVeH confirming what HE has already established in foretelling of events in the book of Daniel chapter 2:39 – 40 and Yashayah 49:4. The mentality of the bloodline children of Yisrael before the return of Messiyah is rooted in the Greco/brass-Roman/iron temperament.

Page 71

Yirmiyah: 6:29: The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the founder melts in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away.

Yirmiyah: 6:30: Reprobate silver shall men call them, because YaHVeH has rejected them.

 

Chapter 7

 

I believe the two witnesses of Revelation 11 will be reading this scripture of Yirmiyah 7 to the inhabitants of Yahvshalam and the world will see and hear via news satellite:

 

Yirmiyah: 7:1 The Word that came to Yirmiyah from YaHVeH, saying,

Yirmiyah: 7:2:  Stand in the gate of YaHVeH's house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the Word of YaHVeH, all you of Yahudah that enter in at these gates to worship YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 7:3:  This said YaHVeH of hosts, the Elohiym of Yisrael, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

Yirmiyah: 7:4: Trust you not in lying words, saying, the heykal of YaHVeH, The heykal of YaHVeH, The heykal of YaHVeH, are these.

 

Notice verse 4 mentions three times the “heykal of YaHVeH.” The 1st time was for Yirmiyah’s day, the 2nd time was for our Rabbi Yahshua the Messiyah’s when He walked on the earth in the flesh and the 3rd time is for our day (Matith`Yah/Matthew 23:37; 24:1-2; Rev. 11:1-3).

 

Updated 04/05/6995 [5773] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [06/15/13]

 

Yirmiyah: 7:5: For if you all thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if you thoroughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbor;

Yirmiyah: 7:6: If you oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other elohiym/gods/idols to your hurt:

Yirmiyah: 7:7: Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, forever and ever.

Yirmiyah: 7:8: Observe, you all trust in lying words, that cannot profit.

 

Verse 9 is a naba/foretelling directly related to the condition of House of Yisrael consumed in Christian doctrine and House of Yudah consumed in “Judaism”. They have been deceived into believing a lie that the ruach/unseen (hidden INSIDE the Ark of the covenant 1 Melekiym/Kings 8:9) Torah/Law has been done away and that it is acceptable to YaHVeH to keep pagan customs in the name or title of  “God”, “Jesus”, “Adonai”, the phrase “ha Shem”, and “lord.


Page 72

Yirmiyah: 7:9:  Will you all steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other elohiym whom you know not;

Yirmiyah: 7:10:  And come and stand before ME in this house, which is called by MY name, and say, we are delivered to do all these abominations?

Yirmiyah: 7:11: Is this house, which is called by MY name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Observe, even I have seen it, said YaHVeH.

 

Verse 11 was a foretelling that our Rabbi quoted when He was in the heykal and turned the tables of the moneychangers over (Matith`Yah/Matthew 21:13). The foretelling is speaking about the 3rd and final heykal that will be built by the hand of man by the House of Yudah with Christianities “blessing”. The foretelling is physical and has a ruach meaning: the literal 3rd physical heykal built with the hand of man (Matith`Yah 24:1-2; Rev 11:1-2) and the ruach heykal being built by Yahshua, which we the believes are (I Cor. 3:16; Eph. 2:20-22); Christianity teaching that YaHVeH’s Law/Torah is done away and keeping pagan customs in place of YaHVeH’s Sabbaths, by this doctrine they have robbed people of the truth (Mat. 24:5; I Cor. 3:17; Rev. 13:11; 17:5), which is an abomination to EL SHADDAI!

 

Yirmiyah: 7:12: But go you now to MY place, which was in Shiyloh, where I set MY name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of MY people Yisrael.

Topics: Shiy'loh

 

Text:  generally understood as denoting the Messiyah, "the peaceful one," as the word signifies (B’reshiyth/Gen. 49:10). The Vulgate Version translates the word, "he who is to be sent," in allusion to the Messiyah; the Revised Version, margin, "till He come to Shiyloh;" and the LXX, "until that which is His shall come to Shiyloh." It is most simple and normal to render the expression, as in the Authorized Version, "till Shiyloh come," interpreting it as a proper name (comp. Yashayah/Isa. 9:6).

 

Topics: Shiy'loh

 

Text:  a place of rest, a city of Ephrayim, "on the north side of Beythel," from which it is distant 10 miles (Shophetiym/Judg. 21:19); the modern Seilun (the Arabic for Shiyloh), a "mass of shapeless ruins." Here the tabernacle was set up after the Conquest (Yahshua/Josh. 18:1-10), where it remained during all the period of the shophetiym/judges till the ark fell into the hands of the Pelishtiym/Philistines. "No spot in Central Pelishtiym could be more secluded than this early mikdash/sanctuary, nothing more featureless than the landscape around; so featureless; indeed, the landscape and so secluded the spot that from the time of Yerome/Jerome till its re-discovery by Dr. Robinson in 1838 the very site was forgotten and unknown." It is referred to by Yirmiyah (7:12, 14; 26:4-9) five hundred years after its destruction.

Yirmiyah: 7:13: And now, because you all have done all these works, said YaHVeH, and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you heard not; and I called you, but you answered not;

 

I believe this naba/foretelling in verse 14 is not only speaking to the “House of Yudah” (for building a heykal/temple) but also to Christians/House of Yisrael who think a building is where YaHVeH’s Kodesh Ruach dwells. Look at all the buildings in the USA and “many” Christians actually call a building made with the hand of man a “Church”, which the word “church” is not even in the Greek manuscript, but has been added by the “Mother of Harlots” the woman riding the beast of Revelation chapter 17. The people are the “Ekklesia”, which in Greek means “called out”, in Iybriy we are the “Kara Yaza”, which means the same thing, and not a building made with the hand of man. The Kodesh Ruach dwells in us and not a building (I Cor. 3:16).

 

Yirmiyah: 7:14:  Therefore will I do to this house, which is called by MY name, wherein you trust, and to the place, which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiyloh.

Yirmiyah: 7:15:  And I will cast you out of MY sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephrayim.

 

 Ephrayim`s descents today are settled in the UK.

 

Yirmiyah: 7:16:  Therefore don’t pray for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to ME: for I will not hear you.

 

Verse 16 is hard for “many” (Mat. 24:5) people to swallow, but there is a time when YaHVeH is fed up and will not receive any type of intercession for someone or a people or nation.

 

Yirmiyah: 7:17:  Do you see what they do in the cities of Yahudah and in the streets of Yahvshalam?

Yirmiyah: 7:18:  The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to other elohiym, that they provoke ME to anger.

 

Verse 18 is an up to date foretelling of what is done in Yahvshalam today at Easter/Ishtar and Christmas, two pagan “holidays” kept in “Jesus’s” name, and YaHVeH hates it! The “queen of heaven” today is called Mary the mother of “Jesus”. Miryam is the mother of Yahshua, and she was a virgin and conceived Yahshua as a virgin, but she did not stay a virgin, she eventually had sex with her husband Yoseph and Yahshua had brothers (Yohn 7:5). She is not to be prayed to; Yahshua the Ben of YaHVeH is the only mediator between YaHVeH and man and no other! 

 

Yirmiyah: 7:19: Do they provoke ME to anger? Said YaHVeH: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?


Page 74

Refer to Revelation 11:

 

Yirmiyah: 7: 20: Therefore this said the Rabbi YaHViH; Observe, MY anger and MY fury shall be poured out on this place, on man, and on beast, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.

Yirmiyah: 7:21:  This said YaHVeH of hosts, the Elohiym of Yisrael; Put your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat flesh.

Yirmiyah: 7:22:  For I spoke not to your fathers, or commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt/Mitsrayim, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:

Yirmiyah: 7:23: But this thing I commanded them, saying, Obey MY voice, and I will be your Elohiym, and you all shall be MY people: and walk you in all the ways that I have commanded you that it be well for you.

 

This reference to “…Obey my voice…” is to direct YaHVeH’s people to remember HIS Commandments given at Mount Sinai (Shemoth/Exodus 20). Refer also Yahvchanan/Yohn 10:16.

 

Yirmiyah: 7:24:  But they did not listen, or inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.

Yirmiyah: 7:25:  Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt until this day I have even sent to you all MY servants the nabiym/foretellers, daily rising up early and sending them:

Yirmiyah: 7:26:  Yet they did not listen to ME, or inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.

Yirmiyah: 7:27.  Therefore you shall speak all these words to them; but they will not listen to you: you shall also call to them; but they will not answer you.

Yirmiyah: 7:28:  But you shall say to them, this is a nation that obeys not the voice of YaHVeH their Elohiym, or receives correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.

Yirmiyah: 7:29:  Cut off your hair, O Yahvshalam, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for YaHVeH has rejected and forsaken the generation of HIS wrath.

Yirmiyah: 7:30:  For the children of Yahudah have done evil in MY sight, said YaHVeH: they have set their abominations in the house, which is called by MY name, to pollute it.

Yirmiyah: 7:31:  And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the ben of Hinnom, to burn their beniym and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither came it into MY mind.

Yirmiyah: 7:32.  Therefore, observe, the days come, said YaHVeH, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the ben of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter: for they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place.

Topics: To'phel = Topheth/Tophteh/Toph-teh

 

Text:  from Iybriy/Heb. toph "a drum," because the cries of children here sacrificed by the priests of Moloch were drowned by the noise of such an instrument; or from taph or toph, meaning "to burn," and hence a place of burning, the name of a particular part in the valley of Hinnom. "Fire being the most destructive of all elements, is chosen by the sacred writers to symbolize the agency by which Elohiym punishes or destroys the wicked. We are not to assume from foretelling figures that material fire is the precise agent to be used. It was not the agency employed in the destruction of Sennacherib/Sancheriyb, mentioned in Yashayah/Isa. 30:33.

 

Tophet/Tophteh properly begins where the Vale of Hinnom bends round to the east, having the cliffs of Ziyon on the north, and the Hill of Evil Counsel on the south. It terminates at Beer 'Ayub, where it joins the Valley of Yahvshaphat. The cliffs on the southern side especially abound in ancient tombs. Here the dead carcasses of beasts and every offal and abomination were cast, and left to be either devoured by that worm that never died or consumed by that fire that was never quenched." Thus Tophet came to represent the place of punishment. (See HINNOM.)

 

Topics: Hin'nom

 

Text:  a deep, narrow ravine separating Mount Ziyon from the so-called "Hill of Evil Counsel." It took its name from "some ancient hero, the ben of Hinnom." It is first mentioned in Yahshua/Josh. 15:8. It had been the place where the idolatrous Yudiym burned their children alive to Moloch and Baal. A particular part of the valley was called Tophet/Tophteh, or the "fire-stove," where the children were burned. After the Exile, in order to show their abhorrence of the locality, the Yudiym made this valley the receptacle of the offal of the city, for the destruction, of which a fire was, as is supposed, kept constantly burning there. The Yudiym associated with this valley these two ideas,

 

(1.) that of the sufferings of the victims that had there been sacrificed; and

 

(2.) that of filth and corruption. It became thus to the popular mind a symbol of the abode of the wicked hereafter. It came to signify hell as the place of the wicked. "It might be shown by infinite examples that the Yudiym expressed hell, or the place of the damned, by this word. The word Gehenna [the Greek contraction of Hinnom] was never used in the time of Mashiyach in any other sense than to denote the place of time a head punishment." About this fact there can be no question. In this sense the word is used eleven times in our Rabbi's discourses (Matith`Yah/Matt. 23:33; Luke 12: 5; Matith`Yah 5:22, etc.).

 

There is an equivalent of this abominable wicked practice going on today and it is called “abortion”, and is done in the name of the idol of convenience and selfish pursuits. The names might have changed from Molech or Baal but the wicked idolatry remains the same!

Yirmiyah: 7:33:  And the carcasses of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the shamayim and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall scare them away.

Yirmiyah: 7:34:  Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Yahudah, and from the streets of Yahvshalam, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.

 

The rebellion of Yahvshalam, the House of Yudah/"Jewish State" will be punished. The bones of the melekiym, sar, nabiy and kohen will be removed from their graves:

 

Yirmiyah: 8:1:  At that time, said YaHVeH, they shall bring out the bones of the melekiym of Yahudah, and the bones of his princes/sar, and the bones of the kohen, and the bones of the nabiym/foretellers, and the bones of the inhabitants of Yahvshalam, out of their graves:

Yirmiyah: 8:2:  And they shall spread them before the sun/shamayim, and the moon/yareach, and all the host of shamayim, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped: they shall not be gathered, nor be buried; they shall be for dung on the face of the earth/adamah.

Yirmiyah: 8:3:  And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of them that remain of this evil/ra family, which remain in all the places where I have driven them, said YaHVeH of hosts.

Yirmiyah: 8:4:  Moreover you shall say to them, This said YaHVeH; Shall they fall, and not arise? shall HE turn away, and not return?

Yirmiyah: 8:5:  Why then is this people/am of Yahvshalam slid back by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.

Yirmiyah: 8:6:  I listened and heard, but they spoke not correctly: no man/iysh repented of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned to his course, as the horse rushes into battle.

Yirmiyah: 8:7:  Yes, the stork/chasiydah in shamayim knows her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but MY people know not the judgment of YaHVeH.

 

Notice I underlined “knows her appointed times”. The children of Yisrael, both houses have forgotten and replaced YaHVeH’s appointed times with pagan/heathen (surrounding nations) appointed times and customs. Refer to V’yakra/Leviticus chapter 23 for YaHVeH’s appointed times.

 

Yirmiyah: 8:8:  How do you all say, We are wise, and the torah of YaHVeH is with us? See, certainly in vain made HE it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.

Yirmiyah: 8:9:  The wise men are ashamed, they are distraught and taken: see, they have rejected the Word of YaHVeH; and what wisdom is in them?

Yirmiyah: 8:10:  Therefore will I give their wives/nashiym to others, and their fields to them that shall inherit them: for every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness, from the nabiy/foreteller even to the kohen every one deals falsely.

The wise men in verse 9 that the Word of YaHVeH is talking about are the college educated/the academics, the scientist, those that are looked on in this world as being knowledgeable; that’s why the Messenger Shaul said this in 1 Corinthians:

 

{*1Corinthians: 1:19:  For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

@ 1Corinthians: 1:20:  Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? has not YaHVeH made foolish the wisdom of this world?

# 1Corinthians: 1:21:  For after that in the wisdom of YaHVeH the world by wisdom knew not YaHVeH, it pleased YaHVeH by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

$ 1Corinthians: 1:22:  For the Yudiym require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

% 1Corinthians: 1:23:  But we preach Messiyah impaled, to the Yudiym a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness;

^ 1Corinthians: 1:24:  But to them which are called, both Yahudiym and Greeks, Messiyah the power of Elohiym, and the wisdom of YaHVeH.

1Corinthians: 1:25:  Because the foolishness of YaHVeH is wiser than men; and the weakness of YaHVeH is stronger than men.

& 1Corinthians: 1:26:  For you all see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

+ 1Corinthians: 1:27:  But YaHVeH has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and YaHVeH has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

1Corinthians: 1:28:  And base things of the world, and things which are despised, has YaHVeH chosen, yes, and things which are not, to bring to nothing things that are:

They are saying peace/shalom, shalom when there is no shalom:

 

Yirmiyah: 8:11:  For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of MY people slightly, saying, Shalom, shalom; when there is no shalom.

 

{1Thesolonian:5:3: For when they shall say, Shalom/Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.}

 

Yirmiyah: 8:12:  Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination/to-e-bah? no, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 8:13:  I will surely consume them, said YaHVeH: there shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig tree, and the leaf shall fade; and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.

 

Refer to Matith`Yah 21:19; our Rabbi Yahshua no doubt was recalling in His mind these scriptures from Yirmiyah when He cursed the fruitless fig tree. Remember when Yahshua arrived on the scene, He witness the religious leaders as being fruitless leaders in their personal example and teaching (Mat. 21:27 – 46).

 

Yirmiyah: 8:14:  Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defenced cities, and let us be silent there: for YaHVeH our Elohiym has put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 8:15:  We looked for shalom, but no wellness came; and for a time of health, and behold trouble!

Yirmiyah: 8:16:  The snorting of his horses was heard from Dan: the whole land/erets trembled at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones; for they are come, and have devoured the land/erets and all that is in it; the city, and those that dwell in it.

Yirmiyah: 8:17:  For, observe, I will send serpents/nachash, cockatrices/tsepha/zepha/tsiphoniy/ziphoniy, among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall bite you, said YaHVeH.

 

The Word of YaHVeH was bringing to their remembrance those events that happened when Mosheh was leading them out of the erets/land of Mitsrayim:

 

{B’midbar /Numbers: 21:6: And YaHVeH sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Yisrael died.

B’midbar:21:7: Therefore the people came to Mosheh, and said, we have sinned, for we have spoken against YaHVeH, and against you; pray to YaHVeH, that HE take away the serpents from us.  And Mosheh prayed for the people.}


Page 79

Yirmiyah: 8:18:  When I would comfort myself against sorrow, my heart is faint in me.

Yirmiyah: 8:19:  Observe the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people because of them that dwell in a far country: is not YaHVeH in Zion/Tsiyon/Ziyon? is not her Melek in her? Why have they provoked ME to anger with their graven images, and with strange vanities?

Yirmiyah: 8:20:  The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not yasha/delivered.

 

The children of Yisrael will be yasha in the fall harvest when the 7th trumpet sounds, which is proclaimed at the beginning of the 7th new moon/Chodesh, which is called The Day of Trumpets/Zikron Teruah. Refer to V’yakra/Leviticus 23:24. I believe the all the Chodeshiym`s are determined by the zero visibility moons; see article:

Yirmiyah: 8:21:  For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black/qadar/kadar; astonishment has taken hold on me.

 

{Revelation:6:5: And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and observe a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

Re:6:6: And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see you hurt not the oil and the wine.}

 

I believe the black horse of Revelation 6 represents economy, which is highly dependent on black crude oil. 

 

Yirmiyah: 8:22:  Is there no balm in Gilead/Gilad; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?

Topics: Gil'ead/Gil`ad/Gilad

 

Text:  hill of testimony, (B’reshiyth/Gen. 31:21), a mountainous region east of Yarden/Jordan. From its mountainous character it is called "the mount of Gilad" (B’reshiyth 31:25). It is called also "the land of Gilad" (B’midbar/Num. 32:1), and sometimes simply "Gilad" (T’hiyliym/Ps. 60:7; B’reshiyth 37:25). It comprised the possessions of the tribes of Gad and Reuben and the south part of Menashsheh (Dabariym/Deut. 3: 13; B’midbar 32:40). It was bounded on the north by Bashan, and on the south by Moab and Ammon (B’reshiyth 31:21; Dabariym 3: 12-17). "Half Gilad" was possessed by Siychon, and the other half, separated from it by the river Yabbok, by OG, king of Bashan. The deep ravine of the river Hieromax (the modern Sheriat el-Mandhur) separated Bashan from Gilad, which was about 60 miles in length and 20 in breadth, extending from near the south end of the Lake of Kin-ner-oth or Kin-ner-eth /Gennesaret to the north end of the Dead/Salt Sea. Abariym, Pisgah, Nebo, and Peor are its mountains mentioned in Scripture.

Topics: Gil'ead/Gil`ad, Balm of

 

Text:  The region of Gilad abounded in spices and aromatic gums, which were exported to Egypt/Mitsrayim and Tyre/Zor (B’reshiyth 37:25; Yirmiyah 8:22; 46:11; Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 27:17). The word "balm" is a contracted form of "balsam," a word derived from the Greek balsamon, which was adopted as the representative of the Iybriy/Hebrew words baal shemen, meaning "lord" or "chief of oils." The Iybriy/Ee-bree name of this balm was tsori/Zoriy. The tree yielding this medicinal oil was probably the Balsamodendron opobalsamum of botanists, and the Amyris opobalsamum of Linnaeus. It is an evergreen, rising to the height of about 14 feet. The oil or resin, exuding through an orifice made in its bark in very small quantities, is esteemed of great value for its supposed medicinal qualities. (See BALM.) It should be noted that Coverdale's version reads in Yirmiyah 8: 22, "There is no triacle in Galaad." The word "triacle" = "treacle" is used in the sense of ointment.

 

Topics: Balm/Tseriy/Zer-iy/Tsoriy/Zoriy

 

Text:  contracted from Bal'sam, a general name for many oily or resinous substances which flow or trickle from certain trees or plants when an incision is made through the bark.

 

(1.) This word occurs in the Authorized Version (B’reshiyth 37:25; 43:11; Yirmiyah 8:22; 46:11; 51:8; Yechizkiyah 27:17) as the rendering of the Iybriy word tsoriy or tseriy, which denotes the gum of a tree growing in Gilad (q.v.), which is very precious. It was celebrated for its medicinal qualities, and was circulated as an article of merchandise by Arab and Phoenician merchants. The shrub so named was highly valued, and was almost peculiar to Palestine. In the time of Yosephus it was cultivated in the neighborhood of Yericho and the Dead Sea. There is an Arab tradition that the tree yielding this balm was brought by the queen of Sheba as a present to Shelomoh/Solomon, and that he planted it in his gardens at Yericho.

 

(2.) There is another Iybriy word, basam or bosem, from which our word "balsam," as well as the corresponding Greek balsamon, is derived. It is rendered "spice" (Cant. 5:1, 13; 6:2; margin of Revised Version, "balsam;" Shemoth/Ex. 35:28; 1 Melekiym/1 Kings 10:10), and denotes fragrance in general. Basam also denotes the true balsam-plant, a native of South Arabia (Cant. l.c.).

YaHVeH cries over Yisrael’s wicked and uncircumcised heart:

 

Yirmiyah: 9:1:  Oh that MY Head were waters, and MY Eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of MY people!

Yirmiyah: 9:2:  Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men/a-rach; that I might leave MY people, and go from them! For they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men/ba-gad.

Yirmiyah: 9:3: and they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth on the earth/erets; for they proceed from evil/ra to evil/ra, and they know not ME, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 9:4:  Take you all heed every one of his neighbor, and trust you all not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbor will walk with slanders.

 

Notice verse 4 is similar to what Yahshua said:

 

{Luke/Ur: 12:51: Suppose you all that I am come to give shalom on erets/earth? I tell you, No; but rather division:

Lu: 12:52: For from here on out there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.

Lu: 12:53: The ab shall be divided against the ben, and the ben against the ab; the em/mother against the bath/daughter, and the bath against the em; the em in law against her bath in law, and the bath in law against her em in law.}

 

Yirmiyah: 9:5:  And they will deceive every one his neighbor, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity/avah.

Yirmiyah: 9:6:  Your habitation is in the middle of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know ME said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 9:7:  Therefore this said YaHVeH of hosts/tsaba/zaba/tsebaah/zebaah, Observe, I will melt them, and try them; for what shall I do for the daughter/bath of MY people/am?

Yirmiyah: 9:8:  Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaks deceit: one speaks shalom to his neighbor with his mouth, but in heart he lays wait.

Yirmiyah: 9:9:  Shall I not visit them for these things? said YaHVeH: shall not MY life/nephesh be avenged on such a nation/goy as this?

Yirmiyah: 9:10:  For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none can pass through them; neither can men hear the voice of the cattle; both the fowl of the shameh and the beast are fled; they are gone.

Yirmiyah: 9:11:  And I will make Yahvshalam heaps, and a den of dragons; and I will make the cities of Yahudah desolate, without an inhabitant.

Yirmiyah: 9:12:  Who is the wise man/iysh that understands this? And who is he to whom the Mouth of YaHVeH has spoken, that he declares it, for what the land/erets perishes and is burned up like a wilderness, that none passes through?


Page 82

Yirmiyah: 9:13:  And YaHVeH said, because they have forsaken MY Law/Torah which I set before them, and have not obeyed MY Voice, neither walked in it;

Yirmiyah: 9:14:  But have walked after the imagination of their own heart, and after Baaliym, which their fathers/abiym taught them:

 

See Yirmiyah 2:8 for description of “Baal”.

 

Yirmiyah: 9:15:  Therefore this said YaHVeH of hosts, the Elohiym of Yisrael; Observe, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.

 

Notice Revelation chapter 8.

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 8:10: and the third malak sounded, and there fell a great star from shameh, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell on the third part of the rivers and on the fountains of waters;

Re: 8:11: And the name of the star is called Wormwood/laanah: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

 

Dabariym/Deuteronomy: 29:16: (For you all know how we have dwelt in the land of Egypt/Mitsrayim; and how we came through the nations/goyiym which you all passed by;

Dabariym: 29:17:  And you all have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them :)

Dabariym: 29:18:  Unless there should be among you man/iysh, or woman/ishshah, or family/mish-pa-chah, or tribe/shebet, whose heart turns away this day from YaHVeH our Elohiym, to go and serve the gods of these nations; unless there should be among you a root that bears gall and wormwood;}

 

The third seal (Rev. 6:5-6) causes the third malak to sound the third trumpet. This event takes place before the “Great Tribulation”.

 

From E-Sword Strong Concordance the Hebrew word for “wormwood” is:

 

H3939


לענה


la‛ănâh


lah-an-aw'


From an unused root supposed to mean to curse; wormwood (regarded as poisonous, and therefore accursed): - hemlock, wormwood.

Topics: Worm'wood

 

Text:  Iybriy/Heb. la'anah, the Artemisia absinthium of botanists. It is noted for its intense bitterness (Dabariym/Deut. 29:18; Mishley/Prov. 5:4; Yirmiyah 9:15; Amos 5:7). It is a type of bitterness, affliction, remorse, punitive suffering. In Amos 6:12 this Iybriy word is rendered "hemlock" (R.V., "wormwood"). In the symbolical language of the Apocalypse (Rev. 8:10, 11) a star is represented as falling on the waters of the earth, causing the third part of the water to turn wormwood. The name by which the Greeks designated it, absinthion, means "undrinkable." The absinthe of France is distilled from a species of this plant. The "southernwood" or "old man," cultivated in cottage gardens on account of its fragrance, is another species of it.

 

Yirmiyah: 9:16: I will scatter them also among the heathen/goy, whom neither they nor their abiym have known: and I will send a sword after them, till I have consumed them.

Yirmiyah: 9:17:  This said YaHVeH of hosts, consider you all, and call for the mourning women/qun/kun/koon, that they come; and send for cunning women, that they come:

Yirmiyah: 9:18: And let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters.

Yirmiyah: 9:19:  For a voice of wailing is heard out of Ziyon, How are we spoiled! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land/erets, because our dwellings have cast us out.

Yirmiyah: 9:20:  Yet hear the Word of YaHVeH, O all you women/nashiym, and let your ear receive the Word of HIS Mouth, and teach your daughters/bath wailing, and every one her neighbor lamentation.

Yirmiyah: 9:21:  For death is come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children/olel from without, and the young men/bachur from the streets.

Yirmiyah: 9:22:  Speak, This said YaHVeH, Even the carcasses of men/adamiym shall fall as dung on the open field and as the handful after the harvestman, and none shall gather them.

Yirmiyah: 9:23:  This said YaHVeH; Let not the wise man boast/halal in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man/gibbor boast/halal in his might/geburah, let not the rich man boast/halal in his riches:

Yirmiyah: 9:24:  But let him that boast/halal boast/halal in this, that he understands and knows ME, that I am YaHVeH which exercises loving-kindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth/erets: for in these things I delight, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 9:25:  Observe, the days come, said YaHVeH, that I will punish all them which are circumcised with the uncircumcised;

Yirmiyah: 9:26:  Egypt/Mitsrayim, and Yahudah, and Edom, and the children/ben of Ammon, and Moab, and all that are in the utmost corners that dwell in the wilderness: for all these nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Yisrael are uncircumcised in the heart.

(1.) The name of Esau (q.v.), B’reshiyth 25:30, "Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage [Iybriy haadom, haadom, i.e., 'the red pottage, the red pottage'] ......Therefore was his name called Edom", i.e., Red.

 

(2.) Idumea (Yashayah/Isa. 34:5, 6; Yechizkiyah 35:15). "The field of Edom" (B’reshiyth 32:3), "the land of Edom" (B’reshiyth 36:16), was mountainous (Obadyah 8, 9, 19, 21). It was called the land, or "the mountain of Seiyr," the rough hills on the east side of the Arabah. It extended from the head of the Gulf of Akabah, the Elanitic gulf, to the foot of the Dead Sea (1 Melekiym 9:26), and contained, among other cities, the rock-hewn Sela (q.v.), generally known by the Greek name Petra (2 Melekiym 14:7).

 

It is a wild and rugged region, traversed by fruitful valleys. Its old capital was Bozrah (Yashayah 63:1). The early inhabitants of the land were Choriy/Horites. They were destroyed by the Edomiym/Edomites (Dabariym 2:12), between whom and the melekiym of Yisrael and Yahudah there was frequent war (2 Melekiym 8:20; 2 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym/2 Chr. 28:17). At the time of the Exodus they churlishly refused permission to the Yisraeliym/Yisraelites to pass through their land (B’midbar 20:14-21), and ever afterwards maintained an attitude of hostility toward them. They were conquered by David (2 Shemuel 8:14; comp. 1 Melekiym 9:26), and afterwards by Amazyah/Amaziah (2 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym 25:11, 12). But they regained again their independence, and in later years, during the decline of the Yahudiym kingdom/mamlakah (2 Melekiym 16:6; R.V. marg., "Edomites"/“Edomiym”), made war against Yisrael. They took part with the Chaldeans/Kasdiymah when Nebuchadnezzar captured Yahvshalam, and afterwards they invaded and held possession of the south of Palestine/Pelesheth as far as Chebron.

 

At length, however, Edom fell under the growing Kasdiymah power (Yirmiyah 27:3, 6). There are many foretellings/neb-u-ah concerning Edom (Yashayah 34:5, 6; Yirmiyah 49:7-18; Yechizkiyah 25:13; 35:1-15; Yahvel/Yoel 3:19; Amos 1:11; Obadyah; Malakiy 1:3, 4) which have been remarkably fulfilled.

 

The present desolate condition of that land is a standing testimony to the motivation of these nebuah/foretellings. After an existence as a people for above seventeen hundred years, they have utterly disappeared, and their language even is forgotten forever. In Sela/Petra, "where kings kept their court, and where nobles assembled, there no man dwells; it is given by lot to birds, and beasts, and reptiles."

 

The Edomiym were Shemiy/Semites, closely related in blood and in language to the Yisraeliym. They dispossessed the Choriy of Mount Seiyr; though it is clear, from B’reshiyth 36, that they afterwards intermarried with the conquered population. Edomiy tribes settled also in the south of Yahudah, like the Kenizzites/Kenizziy (B’reshiyth 36:11), to whom Caleb/Kaleb and Othniyel belonged (Yahshua/Josh. 15:17). The southern part of Edom was known as Teman.

Topics: Am'monite/Am'moniy

 

Text:  the usual name of the descendants of Ammon, the ben of Lot (B’reshiyth 19:38). From the very beginning (Dabariym 2: 16-20) of their history till they are lost sight of (Shophetiym/Judg. 5:2), this tribe is closely associated with the Moabiy (Shophetiym 10:11; 2 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym 20:1; Zephanyah 2:8). Both of these tribes hired Balaam to curse Yisrael (Dabariym 23:4).

 

The Ammoniy were probably more of a predatory tribe, moving from place to place, while the Moabiy were more settled. They inhabited the country east of the Yarden and north of Moab and the Dead Sea, from which they had expelled the Zamzom/Zamzummims or Zuzims (Dabariym 2:20; B’reshiyth 14:5). They are known as the Benammiy/Beni-ammi (B’reshiyth 19:38), Ammiy or Ammon being worshipped as their chief god/idol. They were of Shemiy origin, and closely related to the Iybriyiym/Hebrews in blood and language.

 

They showed no kindness to the Yisraeliym when passing through their territory, and therefore they were prohibited from "entering the congregation of YaHVeH to the tenth generation" (Dabariym 23:3). They afterwards became hostile to Yisrael (Shophetiym 3:13). Yephthah/Yiphtach waged war against them, and "took twenty cities with a very great slaughter" (Shophetiym 11:33 3738 – 3744 FCA).

 

They were again signally defeated by Shaul (1 Shemuel 11:11). David also defeated them and their allies the Syrians/Aram (2 Shemuel 10:6-14), and took their chief city, Rabbah, with much spoil (2 Shemuel 10: 14; 12:26-31). The subsequent events of their history are noted in 2 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym/2 Chr. 20:25; 26:8; Yirmiyah 49:1; Yechizkiyah 25:3, 6.

 

One of Shelomoh’s wives was Na`amah, an Ammoniy. She was the mother of Rechabam (1 Melekiym 14:31; 2 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym 12:13). The nabiym/foretellers predicted fearful judgments against the Ammoniym because of their hostility to Yisrael (Zephanyah 2:8; Yirmiyah 49:1-6; Yechizkiyah 25:1-5, 10; Amos 1:13-15). The national idol worshipped by this people was Molech or Milkom/Malkam, at whose altar they offered human sacrifices (1 Melekiym 11:5, 7). The high places built for this idol by Shelomoh, at the instigation of his Ammoniy wives, were not destroyed till the time of Yoshi`Yah/Yosiah (2 Melekiym 23:13).

 

Topics: Mo'ab

 

Text:  the seed of the father, or, according to others, the desirable land, the eldest ben of Lot (B’reshiyth 19:37), of incestuous birth.

 

(2.) Used to denote the people of Moab (B’midbar 22:3-14; Shophetiym 3:30; 2 Shemuel 8:2; Yirmiyah 48:11, 13).

 

(3.) The land of Moab (Yirmiyah 48:24), called also the "country of Moab" (Ruth 1:2, 6; 2:6), on the east of Yarden and the Dead Sea, and south of the Arnon (B’midbar 21:13, 26). In a wider sense it included the whole region that had been occupied by the Amorites/Emoriym. It bears the modern name of Kerak. In the Plains of Moab, opposite Yericho (B’midbar 22:1; 26:63; Yahshua 13:32), the children of Yisrael had their last encampment before they entered the land of Kena`an/Canaan. It was at that time in the possession of the Emoriym (B’midbar 21:22).


"Mosheh went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah," and "died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of YaHVeH" (Dabariym 34:5, 6). "Surely if we had nothing else to interest us in the land of Moab, the fact that it was from the top of Pisgah, its noblest height, this mightiest of the nabiym/foretellers looked out with eye undimmed upon the Promised Land; that it was here on Nebo, its loftiest mountain, that he died his solitary death; that it was here, in the valley over against Beth-Peor, he found his mysterious sepulchre, we have enough to enshrine the memory in our hearts."

07/23/6993 [5772] 7th day of week/Shabbat [10/22/11]

Updated 03/21/6995 [5773] 7th day of the week [06/01/13]

 

YaHVeH exposes the House of Yisrael Sun-god Baal (Christ)-mass, which points to “Christianity”, Catholic/Orthodox and Protestant “churches”:

 

Now let's look at Yirmiyah chapter 10. I have heard "many" (Mat. 24:5) denials by "Christian" that this chapter is even speaking about X-mass. Where are their eyes to see with and ears to hear with?

 

Yirmiyah/Jeremiah: 10:1: Hear you all the Word, which YaHVeH speaks to you, O house of Yisrael:

Yirmiyah: 10:2: This said YaHVeH, Learn not the way of the heathen/goy, and be not dismayed at the signs of shamayim; for the heathen/goy are dismayed at them.

Yirmiyah: 10:3: For the customs of the people are vain: for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.

 

Verse 3 makes it abundantly clear that this is a tree taken out of the forest. What do billions of “Christians” (Mat. 24:5; Mark 7:7) do every year at this time? Well, either they go to the forest themselves and cut down a tree or they go to a roadside tree stand and buy one that somebody else has already cut down for them.

 

Yirmiyah: 10:4: They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers that it move not.

Yirmiyah: 10:5: They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must be carried, because they cannot move.  Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do well.

 

Now, what does the "Christian" do when he or she cuts down their tree or buys it from a roadside tree vendor? They take that tree home and instead of nailing it to the floor with a hammer, modern day technology has made it convenient for them to just put it in a tree stand, which is secured with screws. When the "Christian" places the tree they cut down with an axe or saw in the tree stand, it is just as up right as a palm tree as a palm tree can be!


Page 87

This quote is from the book The Two Babylon’s or THE PAPAL WORSHIP by The Late Alexander Hislop, page 97:

 

"...The Christmas tree, now so common among us, was equally common in Pagan Rome and Pagan Egypt. In Egypt that tree was the palm-tree; in Rome it was the fir; the palm-tree denoting the Pagan Messiah, as Baal-Tamar, the fir referring to him as Baal-Berith. The mother of Adonis, the Sun-God and great mediatorial divinity, was mystically said to have been changed into a tree, and when in that state to have brought forth her divine son. If the mother was a tree, the son must have been recognised as the "Man the branch." And this entirely accounts for the putting of the Yule Log into the fire on Christmas-eve, and the appearance of the Christmas-tree the next morning..."

 

Yirmiyah: 10:6: Forasmuch as there is none like YOU, O YaHVeH; YOU are great, and YOUR name is great in might.

Yirmiyah: 10:7: Who would not fear YOU, O King/Melek of nations/goyiym?  For to YOU does it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations/goyiym, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like YOU.

Yirmiyah: 10:8: But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.

 

"The stock is a doctrine of vanities" (Mark 7:7) is reference to the pagans and Yisrael's rebellion into following the customs of the nations surrounding them. Ancient Yisrael worshipped in groves of trees. If you will notice when those roadside vendors set up those trees that "Christianity" loves to worship, they look like groves:


Page 88

{Shemoth/Exodus: 34:13: but you all shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:

Shemoth: 34:14: For you shall worship no other god/el: for YaHVeH, whose name is Jealous/Kanna is a jealous EL:

Shemoth: 34:15: Unless you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land/erets, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice to their gods and one call you, and you eat of his sacrifice;

Shemoth: 34:16: And you take of their daughter/bath to your ben, and their bath goes a whoring after their elohiym, and makes your ben go a whoring after their elohiym/idols.}

 

Yirmiyah: 10:9: Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish/Tar-shiysh, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of cunning men.

 

Tarshiysh, in ancient times was a busy port for trading/buying and selling, and represents mankind’s obsession with economy. Remember the mark of the beast deals with buying and selling and the rejection of YaHVeH commandments through belief in HIS Ben Yahshua, which include YaHVeH’s Sabbaths/Times/Seasons. Also remember that the name Kena`an/Canaan means merchant or traffic.


Page 89


Kena`an/Canaan, Manhattan, New York-Manhattan is of the spirit of Kena`an. Kena`an means merchants/traffic.

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: Tar'shiysh

 

Text:  a Sanscrit or Aryan word, meaning "the sea coast."

 

(1.) One of the "sons" of Yavan/Javan (B’reshiyth/Gen. 10:4; 1 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym/1 Chr. 1:7).

 

(2.) The name of a place which first comes into notice in the days of Shelomoh/Solomon. The question as to the locality of Tarshiysh has given rise to not a little discussion. Some think there was a Tarshiysh in the East, on the Indian coast, seeing that "ships of Tarshiysh" sailed from Eziongeber, on the Red Sea (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 9:26; 22:48; 2 Dibrey Ha`Yamiym/2 Chr. 9:21). Some, again, argue that Carthage was the place so named.

 

There can be little doubt, however, that this is the name of a Phoenician port in Spain, between the two mouths of the Guadalquivir (the name given to the river by the Arabs, and meaning "the great wady" or water-course). It was founded by a Carthaginian colony, and was the farthest western harbour of Tyrian sailors. It was to this port Yonah's ship was about to sail from Yoppa. It has well been styled "the Peru of Tyrian adventure;" it abounded in gold and silver mines.

 

It appears that this name also is used without reference to any locality. "Ships of Tarshiysh" is an expression sometimes denoting simply ships intended for a long voyage (Yashayah/Isa. 23:1, 14), ships of a large size (sea-going ships), whatever might be the port to which they sailed. Shelomoh's ships were so styled (1 Melekiym 10:22; 22:49).

What do Christians do with this pagan symbol of worship? They decorate this tree with ornaments covered with silver and gold. Notice, the "blue and purple…” in “…their clothing…":

This is from E-Sword Strong’s Concordance the Greek word for "scarlet" in Revelation 17:3 is:


G2847

 

Kokkinos

 

Kok'-kee-nos

 

From G2848 (from the kernel shape of the insect); crimson colored: - scarlet (color, colored).

 

{Yashayah/ Isaiah: 1:18: Come now, and let us reason together, says YaHVeH: though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.}

 

Just look at the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy and the color of their ropes, notice the man closes in the picture, his hat is a purplish red color:


Yirmiyah: 10:10: But YaHVeH is the true Elohiym, HE is the living Elohiym, and an everlasting MELEK: at HIS wrath the earth/erets shall tremble, and the nations/goyiym shall not be able to abide HIS indignation.

Yirmiyah: 10:11: This shall you say to them, the gods that have not made the shamayim and the earth (arak/iraq), even they shall perish from the ara/earth, and from under these shamayim.

Yirmiyah: 10:12: HE has made the erets/earth by HIS power, HE has established the world by HIS wisdom, and has stretched out the shamayim by HIS discretion.

Yirmiyah: 10:13: When HE utters HIS Voice, there is a multitude of waters in the shamayim, and HE causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the erets; HE makes lightnings with rain, and brings forth the wind out of HIS treasures.

Yirmiyah: 10:14: Every man/adam is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.

Yirmiyah: 10:15: They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.

Yirmiyah: 10:16: The portion of Ya’akob is not like them: for HE is the former of all things; and Yisrael is the rod of HIS inheritance:  YaHVeH of hosts is HIS name.

Yirmiyah: 10:17: Gather up your wares/merchandise out of the land/erets, O inhabitant of the fortress.

Yirmiyah: 10:18: For this said YaHVeH, Observe, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land/erets at this once, and will distress them, that they find it so.


Page 93



I’m having a hard time understanding verse 18 the way the KJV has phrased it, especially the last part of the verse “…that they find it so…” I prefer the way the Revised Standard Version phrased it:

 

{Yirmiyah: 10:18: For this says YaHVeH: "Behold, I am slinging out the inhabitants of the land at this time, and I will bring distress on them, that they feel it.”}

 

Yirmiyah: 10:19: Woe is ME for MY hurt!  MY wound is grievous: but I said, truly this is a grief, and I must bear it.

 

It seems to me that verse 19 is foretelling what our Rabbi Yahshua the Messiyah was going to say in His mind, when He bore the pain of torture before and during the time He was hung on the pole/stake/tree.

Yirmiyah: 10:20: MY tabernacle is spoiled, and all MY cords are broken: MY children are gone forth of ME, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth MY tent any more, and to set up MY curtains.

 

Verse 20 looks like another meditation of our Rabbi’s mind. As far as I know at the time of Yirmiyah’s writing this part of scripture, he did not have any children, and I’m almost sure he was not married at this time. Remember Yirmiyah was called when he was just a youth (Yir. 1:6). Also remember what Yahshua the Messiyah said:

 

{Matith’Yah/Matthew: 23:37: O Yahvshalam, Yahvshalam, you that kill the Nabiym, and stone them which are sent to you, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and you all would not!}

Yirmiyah: 10:21: For the ra`ah/shepherds are become brutish, and have not sought YaHVeH: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.

Yirmiyah: 10:22: Behold, the noise of the bruit/report is come, and a great commotion out of the North Country, to make the cities of Yahudah desolate, and a den of dragons.

Yirmiyah: 10:23: O YaHVeH, I know that the way of man/adam is not in himself: it is not in man/iysh that walks to direct his steps.

Yirmiyah: 10:24: O YaHVeH, correct me, but with judgment; not in YOUR anger, unless YOU bring me to nothing.

Yirmiyah: 10:25: Pour out YOUR fury on the heathen/goy that know YOU not, and on the families that call not on YOUR name: for they have eaten up Ya’akob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.

 

The shepherds verse 21 is talking about are the Roman Catholic…etc. /Greek, Russian Orthodox …etc. and Protestant “pastors” and priest including Egyptian Coptic, Armenian Christians …etc., because they all have founded there doctrine on paganism, and counterfeit the Hebrew/Iybriy from the tribe of Yahudah Messiyah with a Greco-Roman Babylonian “Jesus Christ".


Page 94


Notice verse 25 Yirmiyah emphasizes the calling on of YaHVeH’s name. 

 

Do you see the connection? Has YaHVeH given you eyes to see with and ears to hear with?

 

{Matith’Yah/Matthew: 13:16: but baruk are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.}

 

You can refer to 2 Corinthians: 11:14 When Paul/Shaul states that Satan is an angel of light/Sun/Baal; he did not say this out of ignorance of the history of ancient Yisrael. He knew why Eliyah confronted them and why they were eventually defeated as a nation and taken captive. Do you hear what the ruach (attitude) of Eliyah is saying to you (Yasha'Yah /Isaiah40:3) today?

See article:

The Word of YaHVeH tells Yirmiyah to remind the children of Yisrael of the covenant they made with HIM:

 

Yirmiyah: 11:1: The Word that came to Yirmiyah from YaHVeH, saying,

Yirmiyah: 11:2: Hear you all the words of this covenant, and speak to the men/iysh of Yahudah, and to the inhabitants of Yahvshalam;

 

In verse 2 you will notice the word covenant is used. This covenant is meant as a promise of YaHVeH fulfilling His promise to punish the House of Yisrael and Yahudah for their sins.

 

Yirmiyah: 11:3: And say you to them, this said YaHVeH Elohiym of Yisrael; cursed be the man/iysh that obeys not the words of this covenant,

 

YaHVeH pronounces a curse on any man not just the children of Yisrael. If you turn to V’yakra/Leviticus chapter 26 and Dabariym/Deuteronomy 28 you will find what curses come when the covenant is broken. You can turn also to Matith`Yah/Matthew 24 and Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed 6 to see the curses spoken of in the “New Testament”/Renewed Covenant.

 

Yirmiyah: 11:4: Which I commanded your ab in the day that I brought them forth out of the land/erets of Mitsrayim, from the iron furnace, saying, Obey MY Voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so shall you all be MY people, and I will be your Elohiym:


Page 95


Yirmiyah: 11:5: That I perform the oath which I have sworn to your ab, to give them a land/erets flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day.  Then answered I, and said, so be it, O YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 11:6: Then YaHVeH said to me, proclaim all these words in the cities of Yahudah, and in the streets of Yahvshalam, saying, hear you all the words of this covenant, and do them.

Yirmiyah: 11:7: For I earnestly protested to your abiym in the day that I brought them up out of the land/erets of Egypt/Mitsrayim, even to this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey MY Voice.

Yirmiyah: 11:8: Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil/ra/ra`ah heart: therefore I will bring on them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but they did them not.

 

Updated 04/19/6995 [5773] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [06/29/13]

 

Yahudah is praying to other gods/idols/elohiym/mighty ones and to Baal:

 

Yirmiyah: 11:9: And YaHVeH said to me, a conspiracy is found among the men/iysh of Yahudah, and among the inhabitants of Yahvshalam.

Yirmiyah: 11:10: They are turned back to the iniquities/avon of their forefathers/rishon ab, which refused to hear MY Words; and they went after other gods/idols to serve them: the house of Yisrael and the house of Yahudah have broken MY covenant which I made with their ab.

 

YaHVeH makes it plain in verse 10 that both the House of Yisrael and Yahudah have disobeyed.

 

Yirmiyah: 11:11: Therefore this said YaHVeH, Observe, I will bring evil/ra/ra`ah on them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry to ME, I will not listen to them.

Yirmiyah: 11:12: Then shall the cities of Yahudah and inhabitants of Yahvshalam go, and cry to the gods/idols to whom they offer incense: but they shall not save/yasha, yasha them at all in the time of their trouble.

 

Those idols that the inhabitants of Yahvshalam will cry to will be in other languages, with that peoples particular pronunciation, but in English they will be; “Jesus”, “LORD”, “Adonai”, “GOD” , “ha Shem”/which means the name, “mercy”, “faith”, “hope”, “grace”, “liberty”…etc.

 

In the E-sword Strong’s Concordance the Hebrew word for save is repeated twice. I don’t understand why. It could be just an expression of how people talk when they are under distress; like when Christians say in the USA: “O, LORD save me save me”. Or it could be an emphatic, absolute way of saying they will not save/yasha!

 

What is the Scriptural symbolism for incense?


Page 96


 

{Revelation: 8:4: And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the kadosh, ascended up before YaHVeH out of the malak's hand.}

 

The incense is the prayer of people. In this case the ETERNAL`S people are praying to other idols/eliyl (see Strong’s number H457).

 

Yirmiyah: 11:13: For according to the number of your cities were your elohiym, O Yahudah; and according to the number of the streets of Yahvshalam have you all set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense to Baal.

 

I haven’t been to Yahvshalam, but I understand there are many unbelieving Yudiy synagogues, Christian churches and Islamic mosque in and around the city. These building are an abomination to YaHVeH because of their pagan practices.

 

YaHVeH tells Yirmiyah not to pray or lift up a cry for the inhabitants of Yahvshalam:

 

Yirmiyah: 11:14: Therefore don’t you pray for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear them in the time that they cry to ME for their trouble.

 

There is a time that there is no need to pray for an unrepentant people. If people are not willing to change their direction, praying for them is in vain.

 

Yirmiyah: 11:15: What has MY beloved to do in MY house, seeing she has created lewdness with many, and the kodesh flesh is passed from you?  When you do evil, then you rejoice.

 

By the inhabitants of Yahvshalam fornicating with other gods/idols/elohiym, YaHVeH likens it to a woman having sexual intercourse with other men.

 

YaHVeH calls the House of Yisrael and House of Yahudah a green olive tree:

 

Yirmiyah: 11:16: YaHVeH called your name, A green olive tree, fair, and of favored fruit: with the noise of a great tumult HE has kindled fire on it, and the branches of it are broken.

 

Refer to Zecharyah chapter 4, Romans 11 and Revelation chapter 11.

 

Yirmiyah: 11:17: For YaHVeH of hosts, that planted you, has pronounced evil/ra/ra`ah against you, for the evil/ra/ra`ah of the house of Yisrael and of the house of Yahudah, which they have done against themselves to provoke ME to anger in offering incense to Baal.


Page 97


The incense is the prayers of YaHVeH’s people. They are praying to Baal by keeping such customs as Christmas, Easter, and Sunday worship, Valentines Day…etc.

 

08/29/6993 [5772] 7th day of week/Shabbat [11/26/11]

 

Yahshua Mashiyach is hidden in these next verses:

 

Yirmiyah: 11:18: And YaHVeH has given me knowledge of it, and I know it: then YOU showed me their doings.

Yirmiyah: 11:19: But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit of it, and let us cut him off from the land/erets of the living, that His Name be no more remembered.

Yirmiyah: 11:20: But, O YaHVeH of hosts that judges righteously, that try the reins and the heart let Me see YOUR Vengeance on them: for to YOU have I revealed My cause.

Yirmiyah: 11:21: Therefore this said YaHVeH of the men/iysh of Anathoth that seek your life, saying, Foretell/Naba not in the name of YaHVeH that you die not by our hand:

 

Compare verse 21 with what the unbelieving Yudiy said to Yahshua’s twelve chosen messengers:

 

{Acts: 4:17: But that it spread no further among the people, let us straightly threaten them that they speak from here on out to no man in this name.

Acts: 4:18: And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Yahvshua.

 

Acts: 5:28: Saying, Did not we straightly command you that you all should not teach in this name? And, behold, you all have filled Yerushalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood on us.

Acts: 5:29: Then Kepha and the other messengers answered and said, we ought to obey YaHVeH rather than men/iysh.

Acts: 5:30: The EL of our ab raised up Yahshua, whom you all slew and hanged on a tree.

Acts: 5:31: Him has YaHVeH exalted with HIS Right Hand to be a Prince/Archegos GK./Sar Hb. And a Saviour/SoterGk./YashaHb., for to give repentance to Yisrael, and forgiveness of sins.

Acts: 5:32: And we are His witnesses of these things; and so is also the Kodesh Ruach, whom YaHVeH has given to them that obey HIM.

 

Notice in verse 28 I did not spell “Yahvshalam” but instead “Yerushalem”, the reason is because the unbelieving Yudiy unto this day will not say or pronounce the name of YaHVeH, and the city is to be called by YaHVeH’s name (Daniel 9:18).}


Page 98


From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: An'athoth

 

Text:  the name of one of the cities of refuge, in the tribe of Benyamin (Yahshua/Josh. 21:18). The Yudiym, as a rule, did not change the names of the towns they found in Pelesheth/Palestine; hence this town might be regarded as deriving its name from the goddess Anat. It was the native place of Abiyezer, one of David's "thirty" (2 Shemuel 23:27), and of Yahv, another of his mighty men (1 Dibrey ha Yamiym/1 Chr. 12:3).

 

It is chiefly notable, however, as the birth-place and usual residence of Yirmiyah (Yir. 1:1; 11:21-23; 29:27; 32:7-9). It suffered greatly from the army of Sennacherib/San-che-riyb, and only 128 men returned to it from the Exile (Neh. 7:27; Ezra 2: 23). It lay about 3 miles north of Yahvshalam. It has been identified with the small and poor village of 'Anata, containing about 100 inhabitants.

 

Yirmiyah: 11:22: Therefore this said YaHVeH of hosts, Observe, I will punish them: the young men/bachur shall die by the sword; their beniym and their bathiym/daughters shall die by famine:

Yirmiyah: 11:23: And there shall be no remnant of them: for I will bring evil/ra on the men/iysh of Anathoth, the year of their visitation.

 

Yirmiyah: 12:1: Righteous are YOU, O YaHVeH, when I plead with YOU: yet let me talk with YOU of YOUR judgments: Why does the way of the wicked prosper?  Why are all they that deal very treacherously happy?

 

 {-- Living Bible (edited)

 

Yirmiyah: 12:1: O YaHVeH, YOU always give me justice when I bring a case before YOU to decide. Now let me bring YOU this complaint: Why are the wicked so prosperous? Why are evil men so happy?}

 

Yirmiyah: 12:2: YOU have planted them, yes, they have taken root: they grow, yes, they bring forth fruit: YOU are near in their mouth, and far from their reins.

Yirmiyah: 12:3: But YOU, O YaHVeH, know me: YOU have seen me, and tried my heart toward YOU: pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.

Yirmiyah: 12:4: How long shall the land mourn, and the herbs of every field wither, for the wickedness of them that dwell in it?  The beasts are consumed, and the birds; because they said, He shall not see our last end.

 

Now in verse five I’m not sure if Yirmiyah is still asking the Word of YaHVeH a question, or is this the Word of YaHVeH answering back to Yirmiyah?


Page 99


Yirmiyah: 12:5: If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses?  And if in the land of shalom; in what you have put your trust, and they have wearied you, then how will you do in the swelling of Yarden?

 

What is the meaning of verse 5?  Is this a remark for the inhabitants of the Promised Land? Does it have some future significance? In Scriptural symbolism, water, overflowing, flood and in this case swelling has to do with armies or many peoples. Is the Word of YaHVeH in verse five answering back to Yirmiyah, trying to prepare him at that time for the invasion of the Babylonian army? Because when the verse says: “if you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with the horses?”  It seems to be a description of infantrymen/footmen and cavalrymen/horses. I believe that is exactly what verse five is describing; therefore it would have to be the Word of YaHVeH answering back to Yirmiyah, asking him a question. So, the rest of the verses is the Word of YaHVeH answering back to Yirmiyah.

 

Yirmiyah: 12:6: For even your brethren, and the house of your father, even they have dealt treacherously with you; yes, they have called a multitude after you: believe them not, though they speak fair words to you.

 

Do you remember what Yahshua the Messiyah said when He walked on the earth in the flesh?

 

{Matith’Yah ha Leviy/Matthew: 10:34:  Think not that I am come to send shalom on earth: I came not to send shalom, but a sword.

Mat. 10:35:  For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

Mat. 10:36:  And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.}

 

So, you see anybody who is a member of the Body of Yahvshua and their family members are not, we will be at variance with them, and we become like Yirmiyah and all the ancient Nebiyiym who suffered the same trial.

 

Yirmiyah: 12:7: I have forsaken MY house, I have left MY heritage; I have given the dearly beloved of MY life into the hand of her enemies.

Yirmiyah: 12:8: MY heritage is to ME as a lion in the forest; it cries out against ME: that’s why I have hated it.

 

09/07/6993 [5772] 7th day of week/Shabbat [12/03/11]

 

For those that don’t believe that the Word of YaHVeH hates, this verse clearly says other wise.

 

{-- Living Bible (edited)

 

Yirmiyah:  12:8: My people have roared at ME like a lion of the forest, so I have treated them as though I hated them.}

 

Page 100


Yirmiyah: 12:9: MY heritage is to ME as a speckled bird, the birds round about are against her; come you all, assemble all the beasts of the field, come to devour.

Yirmiyah: 12:10: Many/rab shepherds/pastors have destroyed MY vineyard, they have trodden MY portion under foot, and they have made MY pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.

 

{Matith’Yah ha Leviy/Matthew: 24:5:  For many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.}

 

As you can see in verse ten the Word of YaHVeH (Yahvshua the Messiyah) before He came in the flesh, and when He made that statement in Matthew 24:5 He was not saying anything new, He was repeating what He had already said to Yirmiyah (Ephesians 2:20).

 

Yirmiyah: 12:11: They have made it desolate, and being desolate it mourns to Me; the whole land is made desolate, because no man lays it to heart.

Yirmiyah: 12:12: The spoilers are come upon all high places through the wilderness: for the sword of YaHVeH shall devour from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land: no flesh shall have shalom.

Yirmiyah: 12:13: They have sown wheat, but shall reap thorns: they have put themselves to pain, but shall not profit: and they shall be ashamed of their revenues because of the fierce anger of YaHVeH.

 

Updated 04/19/6995 [5773] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [06/29/13]

 

The scribes of the KJV have worded verse 13 incorrectly, because the Word of YaHVeH is speaking to the Nabiy Yirmiyah and telling him what HE is going to do to the disobedient children of Yisrael; so, the verse should not say “and they shall be ashamed of your revenues”, it should say “and they shall be ashamed of their revenues”; because the Word of YaHVeH is saying the fruit of all their hard labor, is going to fail them, and they are going to know it when YaHVeH punishes them with HIS “fierce anger”!

 

Yirmiyah: 12:14: This said YaHVeH against all MY evil neighbor’s, that touch the inheritance which I have caused MY people Yisrael to inherit; Observe, I will pluck them out of their land, and pluck out the house of Yahudah from among them.

 

This will take place during the reign of Yahvshua after He returns in the clouds:

 

Yirmiyah: 12:15: And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them out I will return, and have compassion on them, and will bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.

Yirmiyah: 12:16: And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the ways of MY people, to swear by MY name, YaHVeH lives; as they taught MY people to swear by Baal; then shall they be built in the midst of MY people.

Yirmiyah: 12:17: But if they will not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, said YaHVeH.

(1.) Iybriy/Heb. hagor, a girdle of any kind worn by soldiers (1 Shemuel 18:4; 2 Shemuel 20:8; 1 Melekiym 2:5; 2 Melekiym 3:21) or women (Yashayah 3:24).

 

(2.) Iybriy 'ezor, something "bound," worn by nabiym/foretellers (2 Melekiym 1:8; Yir. 13:1), soldiers (Yashayah 5:27; 2 Shemuel 20:8; Yekizkiyah/Ezek. 23:15), Melekiym (Iyob/Yob 12:18).

 

(3.) Iybriy mezah, a "band," a girdle worn by men alone (T’hiyliym/Ps. 109:19; Yashayah 22:21).

 

(4.) Iybriy 'abnet, the girdle of sacerdotal and state officers (Shemoth/Ex. 28:4, 39, 40; 29:9; 39:29).

 

(5.) Iybriy hesheb, the "curious girdle" (Shemoth 28:8; R.V., "cunningly woven band") was attached to the ephod, and was made of the same material. The common girdle was made of leather (2 Melekiym 1:8; Matt. 3:4); a finer sort of linen (Yirmiyah 13:1; Yekizkiyah 16:10; Dan. 10: 5). Girdles of sackcloth were worn in token of sorrow (Yashayah 3:24; 22:12). They were variously fastened to the wearer (Mark 1: 6; Yir. 13:1; Yekizkiyah 16:10). The girdle was a symbol of strength and power (Iyob 12:18, 21; 30:11; Yashayah 22:21; 45:5). "Righteousness and trustfulness" are the girdle of the Messiyah (Yashayah 11:5). Girdles were used as purses or pockets (Matt. 10:9. A. V., "purses;" R.V., marg., "girdles." Also Mark 6:8).

Yirmiyah: 13:2: So I got a girdle according to the Word of YaHVeH, and put it on my loins.

Yirmiyah: 13:3: And the Word of YaHVeH came to me the second time, saying,

Yirmiyah: 13:4: Take the girdle that you have, which is on your loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.

Yirmiyah: 13:5: So I went, and hid it by Euphrates, as YaHVeH commanded me.

Yirmiyah: 13:6: And it came to pass after many days that YaHVeH said to me Arise, go to Euphrates, and take the girdle from there, which I commanded you to hide there.

 

The girdle in Yirmiyah 13 I believe represents the “House of Yisrael” who has been hidden (T’hiyliym/Psalm 83:3) from the worlds view until these “last days” (B’reshiyth/Genesis 49:1). The “House of Yudah” has put her trust in the “House of Yisrael” to sustain her instead of trusting in the Elohiym of Yisrael. The symbolism of the girdle being dirty and wrinkle and not fit for use is because of the “House of Yisrael” and “House of Yudah” turning their backs on YaHVeH. The Elohiym of Yisrael turned HIS back on them and left them to their own devices for their salvation.

 

{Yashayah/Isaiah: 1:3: the ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Yisrael does not know, MY people do not consider.}

 

Yirmiyah: 13:7: Then I went to Euphrates, and dug, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, observe, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.

Yirmiyah: 13:8: Then the Word of YaHVeH came to me, saying,

Yirmiyah: 13:9: This said YaHVeH, after this manner will I mar the pride of Yudah, and the great pride of Yahvshalam.

Yirmiyah: 13:10: This evil people, who refuse to hear MY Words, which walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other gods, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is profitable for nothing.

Yirmiyah: 13:11: For as the girdle cleaves to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave to ME the whole house of Yisrael and the whole house of Yudah, said YaHVeH; that they might be to me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a splendor: but they would not hear.

Yirmiyah: 13:12: Therefore you shall speak to them this word; this said YaHVeH Elohiym of Yisrael, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and they shall say to you, do we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?

Yirmiyah: 13:13: Then shall you say to them, this said YaHVeH, Observe, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the melekiym that sit on David's throne, and the koheniym, and the nabiym, and all the inhabitants of Yahvshalam, with drunkenness.

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 14:8: and there followed another Malak, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

 

Re: 14:10: The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of YaHVeH, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of HIS indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the kadosh Malakiym, and in the presence of the Lamb:

Yirmiyah: 13:15: Hear you all, and give ear; be not proud: for YaHVeH has spoken.

Yirmiyah: 13:16: Give recognition to YaHVeH your Elohiym, before HE cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while you all look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness.

Yirmiyah: 13:17: But if you all will not hear it, MY life shall weep in secret places for your pride; and MY eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because YaHVeH's flock is carried away captive.

Yirmiyah: 13:18: Say to the melek and to the queen/geb-iy-rah, humble yourselves, sit down: for your principalities shall come down, even the crown of your splendor.

Yirmiyah: 13:19: The cities of the south shall be shut up, and none shall open them: Yahudah shall be carried away captive all of it, it shall be wholly carried away captive.

Yirmiyah: 13:20: Lift up your eyes, and observe them that come from the north: where is the flock that was given to you, your beautiful flock?

Yirmiyah: 13:21: What will you say when HE shall punish you?  For you have taught them to be captains, and as chief over you: shall not sorrows take you, as a woman in travail?

{-- Living Bible (edited)

 

Yirmiyah:  13:21: How will you feel when I set your allies over you as your rulers? You will writhe in pain like a woman having a child.}

 

Yirmiyah: 13:22: And if you say in your heart, why do these things come on me?  For the greatness of your iniquity are your skirts discovered, and your heels made bare.

 

Remember the Word of YaHVeH refers to the children of Yisrael as being a woman or women (Yirmiyah 3), so this verse is to be taken in this context; so, how is a woman’s heels made bare; by her being on her back having sex with her lover or lovers.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:23: Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard his spots?  Then you all also do well that are accustomed to do evil.

Yirmiyah: 13:24: Therefore will I scatter them as the stubble that passes away by the wind of the wilderness.

Yirmiyah: 13:25: This is your lot, the portion of your measures from ME, said YaHVeH; because you have forgotten ME, and trusted in falsehood.

Yirmiyah: 13:26: Therefore will I discover your skirts on your face that your shame appear.

Yirmiyah: 13:27: I have seen your adulteries, and your neighing, the lewdness of your whoredom, and your abominations on the hills in the fields.  Woe to you, O Yahvshalam!  Will you not be made clean?  When shall it once be?

 

{Revelation: 12:12: Therefore rejoice, you shamayim, and all you that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the devil is come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time.}

Yirmiyah/Yir-mi-yah 13 is a very relevant chapter for our time. It is up to date news concerning what is now taking place in Iraq. The only problem is if you don’t know or believe who the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael are you will not at all understand the chapter.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:1: This said YaHVeH to me, Go and purchase you a linen girdle, and put it on your loins, and do not put it in water.


Page 105


YaHVeH tells Yirmiyah to get a linen girdle and to wear it, than HE tells Yirmiyah not to put the girdle in water. The girdle looks like a brand new accessory to a garment; I believe the significance of the water is to symbolize YaHVeH’s Ruach ha Kodesh; water is a symbol of cleansing and of YaHVeH’s set a part (Ko-desh/qodesh/ “holy”) Ruach ("Spirit"). I believe this indicates that these children of Yisrael do not have YaHVeH's Ruach in them.

 

The KJV rendered the verse “…Go and get you a linen girdle…” which takes away from what YaHVeH did when he brought them out of the land Egypt, that is, what HE really did was HE purchased/redeemed them; and now that Yahshua the Messiyah has come in the flesh, YaHVeH the AB/FATHER purchased them/us again through the blood of HIS only Ben, the Lamb of YaHVeH (Yahvchanan/Yohn 1:29; Gal. 3:24).

 

Yirmiyah: 13:2: So I purchased a girdle according to the Word of YaHVeH, and put it on my loins.

 

Yirmiyah represents YaHVeH and the girdle represents the children of Yisrael both Houses.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:3: And the Word of YaHVeH came to me the second time, saying,

Yirmiyah: 13:4: Take the girdle that you purchased, which is on your loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.

 

Notice the word “hide”.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:5: So I went, and hid it by Euphrates, as YaHVeH commanded me.

 

Remember the girdle represents the children of Yisrael, the hiding points to the House of Yisrael ("YOUR hidden ones"; T’hiyliym/Psalms 83:3) and House of Yahudah (“YOUR people”; T’hiyliym 83:3); YaHVeH has kept hidden and out of sight until these “last days”, the identity of the House of Yisrael specifically the shepherd tribes (B’reshiyth/Genesis 49:1, 22 – 26; 2 Melekiym 23:27). Sense the House of Yisrael has been placed out of sight, this would mean the entire world, and including House of Yisrael themselves would not know their own identity. The House of Yahudah did not gain its identity back until May 14th, 1948 according to Babylonian timing (The counting of this time should really begin in the 1st Chodesh/Abib 6930 FCA). This is when they became a sovereign nation.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:6: And it came to pass after many days that YaHVeH said to me Arise, go to Euphrates, and take the girdle from there, which I commanded you to hide there.

 

Now notice the Word of YaHVeH comes to Yirmiyah “after many days” to go and get the girdle from the Euphrates. “After many days” signifies the time that has gone by in which YaHVeH has kept hidden the House of Yisrael and House of Yahudah, until these “last days”!

 

Yirmiyah: 13:7: Then I went to Euphrates, and dug, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, observe, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.


Page 106


The first seven verses are revealing where YaHVeH has hidden the House of Yisrael specifically the shepherd tribes in these “last days”. The two “mountains of brass” (Yashayah/Isaiah 48:1 –5 “your brow brass”) spoken of in Zecharyah (Zechariah/read article:  61) https://www.makethewaystraight.com/61zechariah56.htm ) chapter 6:1 is speaking about two nations (Yashayah: 2:14). If you read chapter 5:11 of Zecharyah you will see the location of these two mountains is the land of Shinar. Shinar is Babylon.

 

From Easton`s Bible Dictionary (edit):

 

Topics: Shi'nar, the Land of

 

Text: LXX. and Vulgate "Senaar;" in the inscriptions, "Shumir;" probably identical with Babylonia or Southern Mesopotamia, extending almost to the Persian Gulf. Here the tower of Babel was built (B’reshiyth/Gen. 11:1-6), and the city of Babylon. The name occurs later in Yudiy history (Yashayah 11:11; Zech. 5:11).

 

Shinar was apparently first peopled by Turanian tribes, who tilled the land and made bricks and built cities. Then tribes of Semites invaded the land and settled in it, and became its rulers. This was followed in course of time by an Elamite invasion; from which the land was finally delivered by Khammurabi, the son of Amarpel ("Amraphel, king of Shinar," B’reshiyth/Gen. 14:1), who became the founder of the new empire of Chaldea. (See AMRAPHEL.)

 

Yirmiyah: 13:8: Then the Word of YaHVeH came to me, saying,

Yirmiyah: 13:9: This said YaHVeH, after this manner will I mar the pride of Yudah, and the great pride of Yahvshalam.

 

YaHVeH tells Yirmiyah HE is going to “mar the pride of Yudah, and the great pride of Yahvshalam.” Instead of YaHVeH the Elohiym of Abraham, Yitzchak and Ya’akob being the House of Yudah’s pride (Mishley/Proverbs 16:18) they have placed it on the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael, the two mountains of brass (Zech. 6:1). Remember the girdle is marred up and profitable for nothing (Yirmiyah: 13:7). Mans pride (Proverbs 16:18) including the UK (Ephrayim), USA (Menashsheh) the shepherd (B'reshiyth/Genesis 49:24) tribes of the House of Yisrael and the Yudiym (bloodline Yudah that call not on the name of  YaHVeH and HIS Mashiyach Yahvshua "Jews”/Judaism), who is the House of Yudah (1 Melekiym/Kings 11), their pride is in their military power (Yirmiyah 17:5) and economic influence (Yashayah: 1:22-23).

 

Updated 10/12/6993 [5772] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [01/07/12]

 

Yirmiyah: 13:10: This evil people, who refuse to hear MY Word, which walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other elohiym, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is profitable for nothing.


Page 107


YaHVeH is going to cause Great Tribulation (Yirmiyah: 13:21; Mattith`Yah/Matthew: 24:21) to come on the children of Yisrael. They walk in the “imagination of their heart”, how can this be done? One-way it can be done is denying YaHVeH’s Word that HE has given us to read, specifically the Ten Commandments that were placed INSIDE the ark (B’reshiyth/Exodus 19; 31:18; Dabariym/Deut. 4:9 – 13; 1 Melekiym 8:9; Romans 3:31; I Corinthians 7:18-19; Revelation 11:19; 12:17; 14:12). We follow our own imagination when we don’t consider why these evils are coming on us; when the Nabiym/Foretellers are ignored (Zecharyah 7:12; Ephesians 2:20); YaHVeH’s Word is denied when people  try to solve the problem with some type of political influence;  when we look to a man or an elected party of men (Luke 16:15) to think of someway to solve the problems instead of turning to YaHVeH through HIS Ben Yahshua, we don’t even consider that it is our sins (Yashayah/Isaiah 59:2, 12) that have cause this evil to come on us (Yashayah 1; Daniel 9:3 – 19).

 

How do we “walk after other elohiym”, to serve them”? When we allow our work, or our pleasure to forget YaHVeH’s Commandments (B’reshiyth/Exodus 20), specifically the 5th commandment (“many” call the 4th) of keeping YaHVeH’s Sabbath, yes, your job can be an elohiym/idol to you. When something dictates to you how to spend your time and your morals, this becomes your elohiym! If you observe YaHVeH’s commandments through belief in Yahvshua it causes you to keep your mind on HIM and HIS time frame. Does your hobby cause you to “worship them” , elohiym made by the hand of man (inventions T’hiyliym/Psalm: 99:8) of metal, wood and fiber glass such as cars, motorcycles, boats, computers, technology…to forget about YaHVeH and HIS Ben ("Son") Yahvshua and the commandments that the Word of YaHVeH (Yahn 1) spoke at Mount Sinai (Shemoth/Exodus 20)?

 

Yirmiyah: 13:11: For as the girdle cleaves to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave to ME the entire house of Yisrael and the entire house of Yahudah, said YaHVeH; that they might be to ME for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a am/people splendor: but they would not hear.

 

Remember the girdle represents the House of Yisrael and House of Yudah and Yirmiyah the Nabiy represents YaHVeH.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:12: Therefore you shall speak to them this Word; this said YaHVeH Elohiym of Yisrael, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and they shall say to you, Do we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?

Yirmiyah: 13:13: Then shall you say to them, this said YaHVeH, Observe, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land/erets, even the melekiym that sit on David's throne, and the koheniym, and the nabiym, and all the inhabitants of Yahvshalam, with drunkenness.


Page 108


All the bottles will be filled with wine; the bottles represent each unbelieving person, those that don’t believe in Yahvshua Messiyah (Yirmiyah: 9:25-26; Romans 2:26 – 29) and keep/guard the commandments of YaHVeH through belief in Yahvshua (Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed 12:17). The melekiym, the koheniym and the nebiyiym are what verse 13 is referring to, the governmental leaders, "Judaism" [Talmud keeping and Kabbalah observing, don’t believe in the Messiyah,  and have changed YaHVeH’s New year from spring to fall, and don’t set the new Chodesh according to the zero visibility moon, but is according to a lunisolar observance see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_calendar] and “Christianity” (Roman Catholic, all of Christian Orthodoxy, Protestant, Coptic …etc, Sunday worshipping, pagan custom keeping denomination/done away with YaHVeH’s Sabbaths and all others who refuse to give up the blasphemous names, words and titles and call on YaHVeH’s name, Shemoth 23:13; Rev. 17:3; Dan. 7:25). Judaism (orthodox) say they have the “Torah of Mosheh” but they ignore the ruach Torah/Law (Shemoth 20; 1 Melekiym 8:9; Matith’Yah/Mat. 19:16 – 19; 22:37 – 40; Romans 7:14) and they don’t believe in Yahvshua. “Christianity” says they believe in Yahvshua but do away with the Ruach Law, specifically YaHVeH’s Sabbaths and keep pagan customs in place of them (Daniel 7:25; Hoshea 2:10-11). They’re so drunk with this understanding you cannot even reason with them (Revelation 17:2).

 

Yirmiyah: 13:14: And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the beniym together, said YaHVeH: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have compassion, but destroy them.

Yirmiyah: 13:15: Hear you all, and give ear; be not proud: for YaHVeH has spoken.

 

The “Great Tribulation” or time of “Ya`akob`s Trouble” (Mattith`Yah 24:21; Yirmiyah: 30:7) is how YaHVeH will “dash them one against another”.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:16: Give kabod/respect to YaHVeH your Elohiym, before HE cause darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and, while you all look for light, HE turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness.

 

Verse 16 is very interesting and if you don’t remember what Yahvshua said Yahvhanan/Yahn: 3:21 and what the Ruach of YaHVeH had Yasha'Yah write in chapter 8:20 you will not understand this verse. YaHVeH in HIS Word defines what light is, so whatever is the opposite of light will be darkness. You see the instruction placed INSIDE the ark through belief in Yahvshua (Shemoth 20; 1 Melekiym 8:9; Revelation 12:17; Eph. 2:20) defines what light is. If you do not have belief in Yahvshua (T’hiyliym 118:21-22), but only look at and observe the ruach law without confessing Yahvshua as Rabbi and Messiyah (Mat. 10:32), you will still be in darkness. If you say you believe in Yahvshua and don’t observe/guard the ruach law placed INSIDE the ark you will still be in darkness. YaHVeH’s Word has made it so that the two cannot be separated.

 

{Yashayah/Isaiah: 8:20: to the Law/Torah and to the testimony/te`udah: if they speak not according to this Word, it is because there is no light in them.


Yahvchanan/Yohn: 3:21: But he that does truth comes to the light that his deeds be made manifest, that they are wrought in YaHVeH.

 

Yahvchanan: 8:12: Then spoke Yahvshua again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.


Matith’Yah ha Leviy/Matthew: 4:16: The people whom sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death, light is sprung up.}


Page 109


Yirmiyah: 13:17: But if you all will not hear it, MY life shall weep in secret places for your pride; and MY Eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because YaHVeH's flock is carried away captive.

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed:5:6: And I beheld, and, lo, in the middle of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the middle of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Ruach of YaHVeH sent out into all the earth.}

 

The children of Yisrael, both Houses are carried away captive one final time in the “last days”. The House of Yudah (The “Jewish State" who now occupy parts of the Promised Land; in T`hiyliym/Psalm: 83:3 they are called “MY people”) knows her identity but the House of Yisrael/ten tribes (UK/Ephrayim and USA/Menashsheh the shepherd tribes; the House of Yisrael are called “MY hidden ones” in T`hiyliym/Psalm 83:3) has lost theirs identity because they are primarily steeped in Baal/Sun god worship/Christianity (Yashayah/Isaiah: 1:3; Hoshea 2:8).

 

Yirmiyah: 13:18: Say to the melek and to the queen/gebiyrah, Humble yourselves, and sit down: for your principalities shall come down, even the crown of your tiph-a-rah/splendor.

 

The UK/Ephrayim still has a queen even though she has no real power. The melek would be the appointed leader of the land. The crown of the children of Yisrael’s splendor is not YaHVeH. The crown of the House of Yudah and the House of Yisrael’s splendor is their economic and military power.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:19: The cities of the south shall be shut up, and none shall open them: Yahudah shall be carried away captive all of them, they shall be safely/shalom carried away captive.

 

The King James Version of scripture renders the last part of verse 19 like this; “…it shall be wholly carried away captive…” which by rendering it this way leaves out the proper meaning; the Hebrew/Iybriy word used in this verse is Strong’s Concordance number H7965, which is “shalom” and has a verity of applications, but the best way to express it in English would be “safe” and not “wholly”, which means “totally”/“entirely” and expresses a quantity and not the state the people will be in when they are carried away captive. 

 

The House of Yisrael was in the North and the House of Yahudah is in the South. If you think about it the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael were in Iraq, which is by the Euphrates River (Rev. 9), which is the northern boundary (B’reshiyth 15:18) given to the children of Yisrael (the USA is still in Afghanistan and have now moved their troops from Iraq to Kuwait), which is North of Yahvshalam. This northern boundary is also called in scripture “…east of the garden of Eden…” (B’reshiyth/Genesis: 3:24; 15:18) and in the “last days”, which we are now in, convenes major scriptural foretelling. Read article entitled The Flaming Sword at web site:   https://www.makethewaystraight.com/74theflamingsword.htm. YaHVeH says HE will break Yisrael’s bow in the valley of Yizreel (Hoshea 1:5). As times draws closer and closer to the “Great Tribulation” events are going to call the nations of Yisrael to the valley of Yizreel.

Yirmiyah: 13:20: Lift up your eyes, and observe them that come from the north: where is the flock that was given You, Your beautiful flock?

 

I believe verses 20 and 21 are speaking about the beast power (EU) with its ten horns (ten Middle East Islamic Kings/nations, T’hiyliym/Psalms 83) mounted on its head (Daniel 2; Revelation 13:1; 17:10 – 13).

 

Yirmiyah: 13:21: What will you say when HE shall punish you? For you have taught them to be captains, and as chief over you: shall not sorrows take you, as a woman in travail?

You can read related news articles to see how this is being done right now. The shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael have taught their enemies to rule over them and trained them in use of the military weapons they have sold their enemies. They will help and have helped arm these Middle East nations. Notice “a woman in travail” these are events that are leading up to the “Great Tribulation”.

Yirmiyah: 13:22: And if you say in your heart, why do these things come on me? For the greatness of your iniquity are your skirts discovered, and your heels made bare.

 

Verse 22 says, “If you say in your heart, why do these things come on me?” This is a big “IF” I don’t hear people in this country (USA) saying why are these evils coming on us. I hear them say; “well these countries are jealous of us.” The USA doesn’t even consider it’s because of sin that these evils are happening to them.

 

The children of Yisrael are scratching their heads wondering why all these horrible events are happening to them. YaHVeH tells them it is because of their iniquity. Notice how YaHVeH words it: “…your skirts discovered…” meaning their nakedness, because this is what is under a woman’s skirt; “…your heels made bare.” This is what you will see if a woman is laying on her back having sex.


Yirmiyah: 13:23: Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard his spots? Then might you all also do well, that are accustomed to doing evil/ra`a`.


Page 111


As far as I know neither an Ethiopian nor a leopard can change their skin or their spots. Yisrael can’t change their ways because they have been sinning for so long. Their entire system of government is based on the image of the beast (Rev. 13:14; Yashayah 48:4), on economy/buying and selling (Babylonian/Roman system/Paganism/Materialism; Matthew 6:24 – 34) instead of the worship of YaHVeH through HIS Ben Yahshua.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:24: That’s why I will scatter them as the stubble that passes away by the wind of the wilderness.

 

YaHVeH will use the Gentile nations through the “Great Tribulation”/ “Ya`akob`s Trouble” to scatter the children of Yisrael for one last time.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:25: This is your lot, the portion of your measures from ME, said YaHVeH; because you have forgotten ME, and trusted in falsehood.

Yirmiyah: 13:26: That’s why I will discover your skirts on your face that your shame appears.

 

When a woman has her skit covering her face she has lifted them up for sexual service. Read all of Yechizki`Yah/Ezekiel chapter 16:

 

{Yechizki`Yah/Ezekiel: 16:32: But as a wife that commits adultery, which takes strangers instead of her husband!

Yechizki`Yah: 16:33: They give gifts to all whores: but you give your gifts to all your lovers, and hire them, that they might come to you on every side for your whoredom.

Yechizki`Yah: 16:34: And the contrary is in you compared to other women who are whores, where none follow you to commit whoredoms: and in that you nathan/pay/give an ethnan/reward, and no reward is given to you, that’s why you are contrary.

Yechizki`Yah: 16:35: For which reason, O harlot, hear the Word of YaHVeH :}

 

Read articles: 72) https://www.makethewaystraight.com/72howezekiel16.htm  

 

The House of Yisrael (UK and USA are the shepherd tribes) give sex to their lovers (buy their allies/economic trade agreements) but instead of their lovers paying them for the sex the children of Yisrael pay them to have sex with them. For example asking a country if you can use their air base in trade you will give them money or make some type of trade agreement with them.

 

Yirmiyah: 13:27: I have seen your adulteries, and your neighing, the lewdness of your whoredom, and your abominations on the hills in the fields. Woe to you, O Yahvshalam! Will you not be made clean? When shall it yet be?

 

Adultery is compared to worshipping other elohiym (“gods”/mighty ones). Their whoredom would be their economic trading and military might. Abominations on the hills and the fields would be the observance of these pagan customs kept today such as: Christmas, Easter, Halloween, Valentines Day, Birthdays, New Years, Sunday worship (Hoshea 2:10-11)…instead of the keeping of YaHVeH’s Sabbaths through belief in Yahshua.


Page 112


YaHVeH asks: “Will you not be made clean? When shall it yet be?” Yisrael will be made clean after the “Great Tribulation”/ “Ya`akob`s Trouble” is over. At the sound of the 7th trumpet Yahshua will literally deliver the physical flesh and blood remnant that is left alive (Yashayah/Isaiah 11). Also at the sound of the 7th trumpet the Body of Yahshua (Composed of children of Yisrael and Gentile people Romans 11; Rev. 7) the kadoshiym/purified will be raised and meet Yahshua in the air to descend on the Mount of Olives (Zecharyah/ from the dead and changed and those alive at the time will be changed from corruptible to incorruptible Zechariah 14; I Corinthians 15:52; I Thessalonians. 4:15- 17; Revelation 14:1).

Yirmiyah: 14:1: The Word of YaHVeH that came to Yirmiyah concerning the dearth.

 

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: Dearth

 

Text:  a scarcity of provisions (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 17). There were frequent dearths in Pelesheth/Palestine. In the days of Abram there was a "famine in the land" (B’reshiyth/Gen. 12:10), so also in the days of Ya’akob (47:4, 13). We read also of dearth’s in the time of the Shophetiym/judges (Ruth 1:1), and of the melekiym (2 Shemuel 21:1; 1 Melekiym 18:2; 2 Melekiym 4:38; 8:1). During the times of the chosen messengers there was an extensive famine in Pelesheth (Acts 11:28) in the fourth year of the reign of the emperor Claudius (5027-5028 FCA/44 and 45 CE).

 

Comment:

 

It was Claudius’ 8th year as Caesar when the famine hit, which fell in 5031 FCA.

 

Yirmiyah: 14:2: Yahudah mourns, and the gates of it languish; they are black to the ground; and the cry of Yahvshalam is gone up.

 

{Revelation: 6:6:  And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see you hurt not the oil and the wine.}


Page 113


Black is the color the Word of YaHVeH uses to describe economy. Notice in Revelation chapter 6 verses five and six the black horse and the rider holding a pair balances in his hand, then notice the prices for wheat and barley and the two other commodities that are so precious that they must not be hurt; olive oil was the precious commodity in ancient times, but today it is crude oil; wine becomes very precious when you have drought upon drought upon drought and in ancient time it was used for a variety of things, such as medicine, vinegar for cooking, for feasting and just the juice unfermented was safer to drink then water during ancient times. Today, wine is a symbol of wealth, abundance and joy.   

 

{Revised Standard (edited)

 

Yirmiyah: 14:2: "Yahudah mourns and her gates languish; her people lament on the ground, and the cry of Yahvshalam goes up.} 

 

Yirmiyah: 14:3: And their nobles have sent their little ones to the waters: they came to the wells, and found no water; they returned with their vessels empty; they were ashamed and confounded, and covered their heads. Yahvshalam goes up.

Yirmiyah: 14:4: Because the ground is chapped, for there was no rain in the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they covered their heads.

Yirmiyah: 14:5: Yes, the doe also gave birth in the field, and forsook it, because there was no grass.


Updated 05/03/6995 [5773] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [07/13/13]

 

Yirmiyah: 14:6: And the wild asses/pereh did stand in the high places, they snuffed up the wind like dragons/tanniyn; their eyes did fail, because there was no grass.

 

YaHVeH tells Yirmiyah to cast Yisrael out of HIS SIGHT:

 

Yirmiyah: 15:1:  Then said YaHVeH to me, though Mosheh and Shemuel stood before ME, yet MY MIND could not be toward this people: cast them out of MY SIGHT, and let them go away.

Yirmiyah: 15:2: and it shall come to pass, if they say to you, where shall we go away? then you shall tell them, This said YaHVeH; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.

 

Compare Revelation chapter 6 verses seven and eight with Yirmiyah chapter 15 verse two:

 

{Revelation: 6:7:  And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

Revelation: 6:8:  And I looked, and observe a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Sheol followed with him. And power was given to them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.}


Page 114



Compare verse 2 with Revelation chapter 13:10:

 

{Revelation: 13:10: He that leads into captivity shall go into captivity: he that kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the belief/pistisGk./emun Hb .of the purified/hagiosGk./kadoshHb.}

 

Yirmiyah:  15:3:  And I will appoint over them four kinds, said YaHVeH: the sword to slay1, and the dogs to tear2, and the fowls of the sha-meh3, and the beasts of the earth/erets4, to devour and destroy.

 

1) The sword to slay.
2) The dogs to tear.
3) The fowls of shameh to devour and destroy.
4) The beasts of the erets to devour and destroy.

 

Refer to Daniel chapter 7; YaHVeH likens the unbelieving gentile nations to animals. Also if you notice the lion and the leopard have wings, which fowl do have.

 

Yirmiyah: 15:4:  And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth/erets, because of Manasseh/Men-ash-sheh the ben of Hezekiah/Yech-iz-qi-yah/Yek-iz-ki-yah melek of Yahudah, for that which he did in Yahvshalam.

 

Read 2 Melekiym 21 to see what Menashsheh did that caused YaHVeH to say that this is the last straw so to speak:

 

{2 Melekiym/2 Kings: 21:1: Menashsheh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and reigned fifty five years in Yahvshalam.  And his mother's name was Hephzibah/ Cheph-tsiy-bahh.

 

Comment:

 

Menashsheh reign from 4284 to 4339 FCA, see “Time line Adam – Today” on web site:

2 Melekiym: 21:2: And he did that which was evil/ra/ra’ah in the sight of YaHVeH, after the abominations of the heathen/goy/gentile/nations, which YaHVeH cast out before the children/beniym of Yisrael.

2 Melekiym:21:3: For he built up again the high places which Yechizkiyah his ab had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made a grove, as did Achab melek of Yisrael; and worshipped all the host of shamayim, and served them.

2 Melekiym: 21:4: And he built altars in the house of YaHVeH, of which YaHVeH said, In Yahvshalam will I put MY Name.

2 Melekiym: 21:5: And he built altars for all the host of shamayim in the two courts of the house of YaHVeH.


Page 115


2 Melekiym: 21:6: And he made his ben pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and dealt with familiar spirits/ob and wizards/yidde-o-niy: he wrought much wickedness in the sight of YaHVeH, to provoke HIM to anger.

2 Melekiym: 21:7: And he set a graven image of the grove/ash-e-rah/ash-ey-rah that he had made in the house, of which YaHVeH said to David, and to Solomon/Shelomo his ben, in this house, and in Yahvshalam, which I have chosen out of all tribes of Yisrael, will I put MY Name for ever:

2 Melekiym: 21:8: Neither will I make the feet of Yisrael move any more out of the land/adamah which I gave their ab; only if they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them and according to all the torah that MY servant Mosheh commanded them.

2 Melekiym: 21:9: But they listen not: and Menashsheh seduced them to do more evil/ra/ra`ah than did the nations/goyiym that YaHVeH destroyed before the children/beniym of Yisrael.}

 

Yirmiyah:  15:5:  For who shall have pity on you, O Yahvshalam? Or who shall mourn you? Or who shall go aside to ask how you do?

Yirmiyah:  15:6: You have forsaken ME, said YaHVeH, you are gone backward: therefore will I stretch out MY Hand against you, and destroy you; I am weary with repenting.

 

Is YaHVeH’s Right Hand for Salvation/Yahshua and for now HIS Left Hand is used for destruction/Satan? If you remember Yahshua said when He returns He will set the sheep on His right hand and the goats on the left (Mat. 7; 25). The goats represent the disobedient, counterfeiting/Christianity and unbelieving Talmud keeping traditions of man “Judaism”; unrepentant, unbelieving children of Yisrael and pagan gentile people of the earth. YaHVeH has always used the gentile nations to punish the children of Yisrael (Daniel chapters 2 and 7). There is something else that doers of the Word need to remember; YaHVeH has divided the Ten Commandments written on the stone tablets placed INSIDE the Ark into five and five and not four and six. The first five you count on your right hand, which these commandments remind us to love and worship YaHVeH and ends with keeping the Sabbath set apart, which is the fifth commandment. The commandments that are counted on the left hand deal with how we treat people, our relationship with them. It is the commandments that are counted on the left hand that most gentile/Christian nations care about, primarily murdering and stealing, gentile/Christian nations could care less about remembering YaHVeH’s name and observing HIS Sabbaths.

Yirmiyah: 15:7:  And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land/erets; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy MY people since they return not from their ways.

Yirmiyah: 15:8:  Their widows are increased to ME above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother/em of the young men/bachur a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall on it suddenly, and terrors on the city.


Page 116


Yirmiyah: 15:9:  She that has borne seven languishes: she has given up the breath/nephesh; her sun/she-mesh is gone down while it was yet day: she has been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 15:10:  Woe is me, my mother/em, that you have borne me a man/iysh of strife and a man/iysh of contention to the whole earth/erets! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them does curse me.

Yirmiyah: 15:11:  YaHVeH said, truly it shall be well with your remnant; truly I will cause the enemy to entreat you well in the time of evil/ra/ra`ah and in the time of affliction.

 

The nabiy/foreteller/messenger represents the Body of Yahshua. Remember we the believer is built/founded on the chosen Messengers, Nabiym and Chief Corner Stone Yahshua the Mashiyach (Eph. 2:20). Notice YaHVeH is going to cause the enemy to entreat them well in the time of evil and affliction, which equals the Great Tribulation, which takes place before Yahshua returns in the clouds.

 

Yirmiyah: 15:12:  Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?

 

Remember “iron” in scripture represents the Roman Empire (Dan. 2:40 – 43; 7:7); so the question is what is the “northern iron and steel”? Well, sense this chapter is discussing the punishment of Yisrael then it would have to be referring to the Tribe or Tribes of Yisrael situated to the north of Yahvshalam. What tribe from the House of Yisrael was picked to rule over the ten tribes? It was Ephrayim. Read 1 Melekiym/1 Kings Chapter 11. Remember it was Yoseph who YaHVeH has prospered with the material abundance of the earth and military power (B’reshiyth/Genesis 49:1, 22 – 26); not just at the time of the writing of the nabiy but in the “last days” we are now in; that material abundance of earth and military power was inherited by Yoseph’s two beniym, Ephrayim and Menashsheh (Yahshua 17:17). Menashsheh was actually the first born, but Ephrayim received the first born inheritance first, then it transfers to Menashsheh, see B’reshiyth Chapter 48. Ephrayim is the UK and Menashsheh is the USA!  Remember also that Yahshua the Ben of Nun, who was before called Hoshea was from the tribe of Ephrayim (B’midbar/Numbers 13:8, 16). So the “northern iron and steel” is Yoseph, which equals Ephrayim and Menashsheh, Yoseph’s two beniym.

Yirmiyah: 15:13:  Your substance and your treasures will I give to the spoil without price and that for all your sins, even in all your borders.

Yirmiyah: 15:14:  And I will make you to pass with your enemies into a land/erets which you know not: for a fire is kindled in MY Anger, which shall burn on you.

Yirmiyah: 15:15:  O YaHVeH, you know: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in YOUR longsuffering: know that for YOUR sake I have suffered rebuke.


Page 117


Yirmiyah: 15:16:  YOUR Words were found, and I did eat them; and YOUR Word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart: for I am called by YOUR NAME, O YaHVeH Elohiym of hosts.

 

Remember what Yahshua said and prayed:

 

{Yohn/Yahvchanan: 5:43: I am come in My AB's NAME, and you all receive Me not: if another shall come in his own name, him you all will receive.

 

Yohn: 17:11: And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to YOU. Kadosh AB, keep through YOUR OWN  NAME those whom YOU have given Me, that they may be one, as WE are.}

 

Yirmiyah: 15:17:  I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of YOUR Hand: for YOU have filled Me with indignation.

Yirmiyah: 15:18:  Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuses to be healed? Will you be altogether to me as a liar, and as waters that fail?

Yirmiyah: 15:19:  Therefore this said YaHVeH, If you return, then will I bring you again, and you shall stand before ME: and if you take forth the precious from the vile, you shall be as MY Mouth: let them return to you; but return not you to them.

Yirmiyah: 15:20:  And I will make you to this people a fenced brazen wall: and they shall fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you: for I am with you to save/yasha you and to deliver you, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 15:21:  And I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.

The Word of YaHVeH tells Yirmiyah not to take a wife in this place:

 

Yirmiyah: 16:1: The Word of YaHVeH came also to me, saying,

Yirmiyah: 16:2:  You shall not take a wife/ishshah; neither shall you have ben/male child or bath/female child in this place.

Yirmiyah: 16:3:  For this said YaHVeH concerning the ben and concerning the bath that are born in this place, and concerning their em/mother that bare them, and concerning their ab/father that begat them in this land/erets;

Yirmiyah: 16:4:  They shall die of grievous deaths; they shall not be lamented; neither shall they be buried; but they shall be as dung on the face of the earth/adamah: and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their carcases shall be meat for the fowls of shamayim, and for the beasts of the earth/erets.

 

The Word of YaHVeH tells Yirmiyah not to mourn for this people:

 

Yirmiyah: 16:5:  For this said YaHVeH, neither enter into the house of mourning, nor go to lament or bemoan them: for I have taken away MY shalom from this people/am, said YaHVeH, even kindness/chesed and compassion/racham.


Page 118


Yirmiyah: 16:6:  Both the great and the small shall die in this land/erets: they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them:

Yirmiyah: 16:7:  Neither shall men tear themselves for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their ab or for their am.

Yirmiyah: 16:8:  You shall not also go into the house of feasting, to sit with them to eat and to drink.

Yirmiyah: 16:9:  For this said YaHVeH of hosts/zaba/zeba’ah, the Elohiym of Yisrael; observe, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

Yirmiyah: 16:10:  And it shall come to pass, when you shall show this people all these words, and they shall say to you, why has YaHVeH pronounced all this great evil/ra/ra’ah against us? or what is our iniquity/avon? Or what is our sin that we have committed against YaHVeH our Elohiym?

Yirmiyah: 16:11:  Then shall you say to them, Because your ab/father have forsaken ME, said YaHVeH, and have walked after other elohiym/idols, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken ME, and have not kept MY torah;

Yirmiyah: 16:12:  And you all have done worse than your ab; for, observe, you all walk every one after the imagination of his evil/ra heart that they might not listen to ME:

Yirmiyah: 16:13:  Therefore will I cast you out of this land/erets into a land/erets that you all know not, neither you nor your ab; and there shall you all serve other elohiym day and night; where I will not show you favor/chaniynah.

Yirmiyah: 16:14:  Therefore, observe, the days come, said YaHVeH, that it shall no more be said, YaHVeH lives, that brought up the children/beniym of Yisrael out of the land/erets of Egypt/Mitsrayim;

Yirmiyah: 16:15:  But, YaHVeH lives, that brought up the children/beniym of Yisrael from the land/erets of the north and from all the lands/erets where HE had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land/adamah that I gave to their abiym.

 

YaHVeH will send for many fishers and many hunters to fish and hunt out the beniym of Yisrael:

 

Yirmiyah: 16:16:  Observe, I will send for many fishermen/dayag, said YaHVeH, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters/tsayad/zayad, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

 

I believe it is because of this verse Yahshua the Messiyah literally choose fishermen (Mat. 4:18 – 19; Mark: 1:17; Luke: 5:2, 10) as His chosen ones/taught ones/limmudiym to seek out His sheep; those that YaHVeH has called and has led to Yahshua (Yohn: 6:65). 

 

Yirmiyah: 16:17:  For MY Eyes are on all their ways: they are not hid from MY Face neither is their iniquity hid from MY Eyes.


Page 119


Yirmiyah: 16:18:  And first I will recompense their iniquity/avon and their sin/chattaah/chattath double; because they have defiled MY land/erets, they have filled MY inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and abominable things.

Yirmiyah: 16:19:  O YaHVeH, MY strength, and MY fortress, and MY refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles/goy shall come to you from the ends of the earth/erets, and shall say, surely our abiym have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.

Yirmiyah: 16:20:  Shall a man/adam make elohiym to himself, and they are no elohiym?

Yirmiyah: 16:21:  Therefore, observe, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know MY Hand and MY Might; and they shall know that MY NAME is YaHVeH.

The sin of Yahudah is written with a pen of iron:

 

Yirmiyah: 17:1:  The sin of Yahudah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;

Yirmiyah: 17:2: While their children/ben remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.

Yirmiyah: 17:3: O MY mountain in the field, I will give your substance and all your treasures to the spoil, and your high places for sin, throughout all your borders.

Yirmiyah: 17:4:  And you, even yourself, shall discontinue from your heritage that I gave you; and I will cause you to serve your enemies in the land/erets which you know not: for you all have kindled a fire in MY Anger, which shall burn for ever.

 

Remember iron is the symbol for the Roman Empire of Daniel chapter 2 and the fourth beast of Daniel chapter 7, so I believe the reference to the House of Yudah’s sin being written with a pen of iron, is a reference to them allowing the influence of the Roman system of government to take over their governmental procedure, instead of YaHVeH’s Torah being that procedure. If you read the history of Flavius Yosephus you will definitely see the Roman influence seeping in, especially when Herod the ben of Antipater came into power. The House of Yudah’s connection to Rome however began during the reign of Yahudah/Yudas Maccabaeus when he sent his friends Yohn and Yason to Rome to make a league with them; see Yosephus book 12 9:3, which happen around 4823 FCA according to my extrapolated timeline, which was around the time of the 155th Olympiad.

 

Cursed be the Geber that trusts in adam:

 

Yirmiyah: 17:5:  Then said YaHVeH; Cursed be the man/geber that trusts in man/adam, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from YaHVeH.


Page 120


Yirmiyah: 17:6: For he shall be like the heath/ar-o-er in the desert, and shall not see when wellness comes; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land/erets and not inhabited.

Yirmiyah: 17:7:  Barak is the man/geber that trusts in YaHVeH, and whose expectation/mibtach is YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 17:8:  For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreads out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat comes, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

 

Comment:

 

Heath is uncultivated, open land with infertile, often sandy soil covered with rough grasses and small bushes or heather. Heather is a plant that grows under these conditions.

 

The heart is deceitful above all things:

 

Yirmiyah:  17:9:  The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

Yirmiyah:  17:10: I YaHVeH search the heart; I try the reins, even to give every man/iysh according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

Yirmiyah:  17:11: As the partridge/kore/ko-ray sits on eggs, and hatches them not; so he that gains riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the middle of his days and at his end shall be a fool.

Yirmiyah:  17:12:  A splendid/kabod high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary/mikdash/mik-ked-ash.

Yirmiyah:  17:13:  O YaHVeH, the expectation/mikveh of Yisrael all that forsakes you shall be ashamed, and they that depart from ME shall be written in the earth/erets, because they have forsaken YaHVeH, the fountain of living waters.

Yirmiyah:  17:14:  Heal/rapha me, O YaHVeH, and I shall be healed/rapha; save/yasha me, and I shall be saved/yasha: for YOU are my praise/tehillah.

Yirmiyah:  17:15.  Observe, they say to me, Where is the Word of YaHVeH? let it come now.

Yirmiyah:  17:16.  As for me, I have not withdrawn/uts from being a shepherd/raah to follow YOU: neither have I desired the woeful day; YOU know: that which came out of my lips was right before YOU.

Yirmiyah:  17:17.  Be not a terror to me: YOU are my shelter/mach-as-eh /mach-seh in the day of evil/ra.

Yirmiyah:  17:18.  Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be afraid/chathath, but let not me be afraid: bring upon them the day of evil/ra, and destroy them with double destruction.

Yirmiyah:  17:19.  Then said YaHVeH to me; Go and stand in the gate of the children/ben of the people/am, whereby the melek of Yahudah come in, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Yahvshalam;

Yirmiyah:  17:20.  And say to them, Hear you all the Word of YaHVeH, you melek of Yahudah, and all Yahudah, and all the inhabitants of Yahvshalam, that enter in by these gates:

Bear no burden on the Sabbath day:

 

Yirmiyah:  17:21:  Then said YaHVeH; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the Sabbath/Shabbath day/yom, nor bring it in by the gates of Yahvshalam;

Yirmiyah:  17:22:  Neither carry out a burden from your houses on the Sabbath day, neither do you all any work, but kadash/set it apart for purity you all the Sabbath day, as I commanded your abiym.

Yirmiyah:  17:23:  But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction/musar.

Yirmiyah:  17:24:  And it shall come to pass, if you all diligently listen to ME, said YaHVeH, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but kadash the Sabbath day, to do no work in it;

Yirmiyah:  17:25:  Then shall there enter into the gates of this city melek and princes/sar sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes/sar, the men/iysh of Yahudah, and the inhabitants of Yahvshalam: and this city shall remain for ever.

Yirmiyah:  17:26  And they shall come from the cities of Yahudah, and from the places about Yahvshalam, and from the land/erets of Benyamin/Binyamiyn, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise/todah, to the house of YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah:  17:27:  But if you all will not listen to ME to kadash the Sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Yahvshalam on the Sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates of it, and it shall devour the palaces of Yahvshalam, and it shall not be quenched.

 

Yirmiyah is commanded to go to the potter’s house:

 

12/02/6993 [5772] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [02/25/12]

Updated 05/10/6995 [5773] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [07/20/13]

Updated 10/11/6996 [5775] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [01/03/15]

 

Yirmiyah:  18:1: The Word, which came to Yirmiyah from YaHVeH, saying,

Yirmiyah:  18:2: Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause you to hear MY Words.

Yirmiyah:  18:3: Then I went down to the potter's house, and, observe, he created a work on the wheels.

Yirmiyah:  18:4: And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed well to the potter to make it.

Yirmiyah:  18:5: Then the Word of YaHVeH came to me, saying,

Yirmiyah:  18:6: O house of Yisrael, cannot I do with you as this potter; said YaHVeH? Observe, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you all in MY Hand, O house of Yisrael.


Page 122


Remember the statue of Daniel chapter 2:45 and its feet was mixed with iron and miry clay. The clay represents the children of Yisrael; the iron represents the Roman system of government and the children of Yisrael have based their governmental system (Yashayah/Isaiah 48:4) on the Roman image of the beast system (Rev. 13:14), instead of YaHVeH’s system, and now they are entrapped in it.

 

Yirmiyah:  18:7: At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation/goy, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;

Yirmiyah:  18:8: If that nation/goy, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil/ra, I will repent of the evil/ra that I thought to do to them.

Yirmiyah:  18:9: And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation/goy, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;

 

Remember when the Word of YaHVeH came to Yirmiyah at this time the House of Yahudah was the only house not carried away captive, the House of Yisrael had already been carried away captive to Assyria/Ashshur about 92 years before (4261 FCA) when the Word of YaHVeH had first revealed HIMSELF to Yirmiyah (Yirmiyah 1:1-2; 4353 FCA), YaHVeH is going to build a statue whose head is of gold starting with the Babylonian Empire. It is the Babylonian Empire that eventually carried the House of Yahudah away captive (Daniel 2 and Daniel 7) in several stages as you will see later in as you read.

 

Also there something you need to recognize in these verses; the House of Yisrael has already been punished and taken captive, sense they have already been punished and no-longer considered a nation, how is YaHVeH going to punish a now defunct government? It’s clear. This foretelling was for the time ahead, time that had not yet arrived in the days of Yirmiyah. What this means is, that the House of Yisrael still does exist today, but whose identity has been hidden (T’hiyliym/Psalm 83:3) from world view, and from the House of Yisrael themselves. As I have already stated before the USA and UK are the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael, the inheritors of the material abundance of the earth and the “Prodigal Son” (Luke 15) in their turn; what I mean by this is that first it was the UK/Ephrayim in these “last days” and now it is the USA’s/Menashsheh turn in these “last days” just before the Messiyah returns in the clouds (B’reshiyth 49:1, 22 – 26 and chapter 48).

 

Yirmiyah:  18:10: If it does evil/ra in MY Sight, that it obeys not MY Voice, then I will repent of the wellness, with which I said I would benefit them.

Yirmiyah:  18:11:  Now therefore go to, speak to the men/iyshiym of Yahudah, and to the inhabitants of Yahvshalam, saying, this said YaHVeH; Observe, I frame evil/ra against you, and devise a device against you: return you all now every one from his evil/ra way, and make your ways and your doings acceptable.

Yirmiyah:  18:12:  And they said there is no expectation/ya-ash: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil/ra heart.

Yirmiyah:  18:13:  Therefore this said YaHVeH; Ask you all now among the heathen/goy, who has heard such things: the virgin/bethulah of Yisrael has done a very horrible thing.


Page 123


Yirmiyah:  18:14:  Will a man leave the snow of Lebanon which comes from the rock of the field? or shall the cold flowing waters that come from another place be forsaken?

Yirmiyah:  18:15:  Because MY people have forgotten ME, they have burned incense to vanity, and they have caused them to stumble in their ways from the ancient paths, to walk in paths, in a way not cast up;

Yirmiyah:  18:16:  To make their land/erets desolate, and a perpetual hissing; every one that passes by it shall be astonished, and wag his head.

Yirmiyah:  18:17:  I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy; I will show them the back, and not the face, in the day of their calamity.

 

An east wind would blow anything in its way toward the west; notice the children of Yisrael will be seeing YaHVeH’s back and not HIS face. Remember the arrangement in YaHVeH’s heykal on earth, HIS throne was situated in the west and if you were worshipping toward HIS throne your face would look west; but now because of the children of Yisrael’s disobedience, the east wind, which was the Babylonian army invading the land, was going to push them out of the land toward the west, and now if they look back at YaHVeH’s heykal and look toward HIS throne, they would only see HIS back, because they were driven out of the land.

 

The iyshiym/men of Yahudah devise an evil plan against Yirmiyah:

 

Yirmiyah:  18:18:  Then said they, Come and let us devise devices against Yirmiyah; for the law/torah shall not perish from the kohen, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet/nabiy. Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.

Yirmiyah:  18:19:  Give heed to me, O YaHVeH, and listen to the voice of them that contend with me.

Yirmiyah:  18:20:  Shall evil/ra be recompensed for well/tob? For they have dug a pit for my life/nephesh. Remember that I stood before YOU to speak well for them, and to turn away YOUR wrath from them.

Yirmiyah:  18:21:  Therefore deliver up their children/beniym to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives/nashiym be bereaved of their children/shakkul, and be widows; and let their men/iyshiym be put to death; let their young men/bachur be slain by the sword in battle.

Yirmiyah:  18:22:  Let a cry be heard from their houses, when you shall bring a troop/gedud suddenly upon them: for they have dug a pit to take me, and hid snares for my feet.

Yirmiyah:  18:23:  Yet, YaHVeH, you know all their counsel against me to slay me: forgive not their iniquity/avon, neither blot out their sin/chattaah from YOUR sight, but let them be overthrown before YOU; deal this with them in the time of YOUR Anger.

 

The “time of YOUR Anger” is also called “Ya’akob’s Trouble” and or the “Great Tribulation”, which takes place in the 5th and 6th seals and Trumpets, which causes the 1st and 2nd Woe (Yir. 30:7; Mat. 24:21; Rev. 6:9 – 17; 9). “Many” (Mat. 24:5) can’t distinguish between the “Great Tribulation” and the “Wrath of the Lamb.” That’s why “many” Christian’s believe in a “secret rapture”. They can’t understand that the “Great Tribulation” is YaHVeH’s wrath (HE uses Satan to punish/Rev. 12) on the children of Yisrael for disobedience, read Yirmiyah 18:11. And the “Wrath of the Lamb” is YaHVeH Outstretched Arm and Right Hand (the return of Yahshua the Mashiyach) used to punish the Gentile/Goy kingdoms (7th trumpet and 3rd Woe).

Yahudah is burning their beniym/male children and their bathiym/daughters in the valley of Hinnom to Baal:

Yirmiyah: 19:1: This said YaHVeH, Go and get a potter's earthen bottle, and take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the kohen;

Yirmiyah: 19:2:  And go out to the valley of the ben of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the east gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell you,

 

See Yirmiyah: 7:31 for description of “Hinnom.”

 

Yirmiyah: 19:3:  And say, hear you all the Word of YaHVeH, O melek of Yahudah, and inhabitants of Yahvshalam; this said YaHVeH of hosts, the Elohiym of Yisrael; Observe, I will bring evil/ra/ra’ah on this place, which whosoever hears, his ears shall tingle.

Yirmiyah: 19:4:  Because they have forsaken ME, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it to other elohiym, whom neither they nor their ab have known, nor the melek of Yahudah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents;

Yirmiyah: 19:5: They have not built also the high places of Baal, to burn their ben with fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I commanded not, nor spoke it; neither did it come into MY MIND:

Yirmiyah: 19:6:  Therefore, observe, the days come, said YaHVeH, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor The valley of the ben of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter/har-ge-gah.

 

See Yirmiyah: 7:31 for description of “Tophet.”

 

Yirmiyah: 19:7:  And I will make void the counsel of Yahudah and Yahvshalam in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcasses will I give to be meat for the fowls of the shamayim, and for the beasts of the earth/erets.

Yirmiyah: 19:8:  And I will make this city desolate, and a hissing; every one that passes by it shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues of it.


Page 125


Yirmiyah: 19:9:  And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their ben and the flesh of their bath/daughter, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege and anguish/matsoq/masok, with which their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall distress/tsuq /zuk them.

Yirmiyah: 19:10:  Then shall you break the bottle in the sight of the men/iysh that goes with you,

Yirmiyah: 19:11:   And shall say unto them, This said YaHVeH of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury them in Tophet, till there be no place to bury.

Yirmiyah: 19:12:  This will I do to this place, said YaHVeH, and to the inhabitants of it, and even make this city as Tophet:

Yirmiyah: 19:13:  And the houses of Yahvshalam, and the houses of the melek of Yahudah, shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of shameh, and have poured out drink offerings to other elohiym.

Yirmiyah: 19:14:   Then came Yirmiyah from Tophet, where YaHVeH had sent him to naba/foretell; and he stood in the court of YaHVeH's house; and said to all the people,

Yirmiyah: 19:15:   This said YaHVeH of hosts, the Elohiym of Yisrael; observe I will bring on this city and on all her towns all the evil/ra that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear MY Word/Dabar.

The House of Yahudah will be delivered into the hand of the melek of Babylon:

 

Yirmiyah: 20:1:  Now Pashur/Pashchur the ben of Immer the kohen, who was also chief/nagiyd governor/paqiyd/pakiyd in the house of YaHVeH, heard that Yirmiyah foretold/naba these things.

Yirmiyah: 20:2:  Then Pashchur struck Yirmiyah the foreteller/nabiy, and put him in the stocks that were in the high gate of Benyamin, which was by the house of YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 20:3:  And it came to pass on the next day, that Pashchur brought forth Yirmiyah out of the stocks. Then said Yirmiyah to him, YaHVeH has not called your name Pashchur, but Magor-missabiyb.

 

From E-Sword Strong’s Concordance the meaning of the Hebrew name “Magormissabiyb” is:

 

H4036


מגור מסּביב


mâgôr missâbîyb


maw-gore' mis-saw-beeb'


From H4032 and H5439 with the preposition inserted; affright from around; Magor-mis-Sabib, a symbolical name of Pashur: - Magor-missabib.


Page 126



Yirmiyah: 20:4:  For this said YaHVeH, observe, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends: and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall observe it: and I will give all Yahudah into the hand of the melek of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive into Babylon, and shall slay them with the sword.

 

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: Bab'ylon

 

Text:  the Greek form of BABEL; Semitic form Babilu, meaning "The Gate of EL." In the Assyrian tablets it means "The city of the dispersion of the tribes." The monumental list of its kings reaches back to 2300 BCE, and includes Khammurabi, or Amraphel (q.v.), the contemporary of Abraham (2548 – 2723 FCA).

 

It stood on the Euphrates, about 200 miles above its junction with the Tigris, which flowed through its midst and divided it into two almost equal parts.

 

The Elamites/Eylamiym invaded Chaldea (i.e., Lower Mesopotamia, or Shinar, and Upper Mesopotamia, or Accad, now combined into one) and held it in subjection. At length Khammu-rabi delivered it from the foreign yoke, and founded the new empire of Chaldea (q.v.), making Babylon the capital of the united kingdom.

 

This city gradually grew in extent and grandeur, but in process of time it became subject to Assyria. On the fall of Nineveh (606 BCE/4374 FCA) it threw off the Assyrian yoke, and became the capital of the growing Babylonian empire. Under Nebuchadnezzar it became one of the most splendid cities of the ancient world; after passing through various vicissitudes the city was occupied by Cyrus, "king of Eylam," T.T.L. 538 BCE/4463 FCA/517 BCE, who issued a decree permitting the Yahudiym to return to their own land (Ezra 1). It then ceased to be the capital of an empire. It was again and again visited by hostile armies, till its inhabitants were all driven from their homes, and the city became a complete desolation, its very site being forgotten from among men. On the west bank of the Euphrates, about 50 miles south of Bagdad, there is found a series of artificial mounds of vast extent. These are the ruins of this once famous proud city. These ruins are principally

 

(1.) the great mound called Babil by the Arabs. This was probably the noted Temple of Belus, which was a pyramid about 480 feet high.

 

(2.) The Kasr (i.e., "the palace"). This was the great palace of Nebuchadnezzar. It is almost a square, each side of which is about 700 feet long. The little town of Hillah, near the site of Babylon, is built almost wholly of bricks taken from this single mound.


Page 127


(3.) A lofty mound, on the summit of which stands a modern tomb called Amran ibn-Ali. This is probably the most ancient portion of the remains of the city, and represents the ruins of the famous hanging-gardens, or perhaps of some royal palace.

 

The utter desolation of the city once called "The splendor of kingdoms" (Yashayah/Isa.13:19) was foretold by the foretellers/nabiym (Yashayah/Isa.13:4-22; Yirmiyah/Jer. 25:12; 50:2, 3; Daniy`Yah/Dan. 2:31-38). The Babylon mentioned in 1 Kepha/Pet. 5:13 was not Rome, as some have thought, but the literal city of Babylon, which was inhabited by many Yahudiym at the time Kepha wrote.

 

In Rev. 14:8; 16:19; 17:5; and 18:2, "Babylon" is supposed to mean Rome, not considered as pagan, but as the prolongation of the ancient power in the papal form. Rome, pagan and papal, is regarded as one power. "The literal Babylon was the beginner and supporter of tyranny and idolatry ......This city and its whole empire were taken by the Persians under Cyrus; the Persians were subdued by the Macedonians, and the Macedonians by the Romans; so that Rome succeeded to the power of old Babylon. And it was her method to adopt the worship of the false deities she had conquered; so that by her own act she became the heiress and successor of all the Babylonian idolatry, and of all that was introduced into it by the immediate successors of Babylon, and consequently of all the idolatry of the earth." Rome, or "mystical Babylon," is "that great city which reigneth over the kings of the earth" (17:18).

 

Yirmiyah: 20:5:  Moreover I will deliver all the strength of this city, and all the labours of it, and all the precious things of it, and all the treasures of the melek of Yahudah will I give into the hand of their enemies, which shall spoil them, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.

Yirmiyah: 20:6:  And you, Pashchur, and all that dwell in your house shall go into captivity: and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and shall be buried there, you, and all your friends, to whom you have foretold/naba lies.

 

Yirmiyah cries to YaHVeH because he is being persecuted for speaking the truth of HIS Word.

 

Yirmiyah: 20:7:  O YaHVeH, YOU have deceived me, and I was deceived; YOU are stronger than I, and have prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocks me.

Yirmiyah: 20:8:  For since I spoke, I cried out, I cried violence and spoil; because the Word of YaHVeH was made a reproach to me, and a derision, daily.

Yirmiyah: 20:9:  Then I said, I will not make mention of HIM, nor speak any more in HIS Name. But HIS Word was in my heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with holding back, and I could not stay.

Yirmiyah: 20:10:  For I heard the slander of many, fear on every side. Report, say they, and we will report it. All my familiars watched for my hesitation, saying, Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.


Page 128



In verse 10 you can see from Yirmiyah’s distress that he notices he is now in a police state. He has men telling him if he says another word about what YaHVeH has spoke to you we are going to report you to the authorities. Much like what we have today in the USA from the new governmental organization called (more like home land insecurity) “Home Land Security”, where people are to report on their neighbors of any activity they perceive to be suspicious. The term “All my familiars watched for my hesitation” would read better as “All men acted friendly toward me but they were waiting for me to mess up”.  

 

Yirmiyah: 20:11:  But YaHVeH is with me as a MIGHTY/GIBBOR TERRIBLE/ARIYTS ONE: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: their everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten.

Yirmiyah: 20:12:  But, O YaHVeH of hosts that try the righteous, and see the reins and the heart, let me see YOUR vengeance on them: for to YOU have I opened my cause.

Yirmiyah: 20:13:  Sing/shiyr/shur to YaHVeH, praise/halal you all YaHVeH: for he has delivered the life/nephesh of the poor from the hand of evildoers/ra’a.

Yirmiyah: 20:14:  Cursed/arar be the day when I was born: let not the day when my mother bore me be prospered/barak.

Yirmiyah: 20:15:  Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my ab, saying A man/zakar child/ben is born to you; making him very glad.

Yirmiyah: 20:16:  And let that man/iysh be as the cities which YaHVeH overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontide;

Yirmiyah: 20:17:  Because HE slew me not from the womb; or that my mother/em might have been my grave/qeber /keber/qibrah/kibrah, and her womb to be always great with me.

 

Refer to Revelation chapter 12. I believe Yahshua the Mashiyach is hidden in the lamenting of Yirmiyah.

 

Yirmiyah: 20:18:  This is why I came out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?

Melek Zedkiyah sends Pashchur and Zephanyah to Yirmiyah to inquire of YaHVeH to deliver them from the king of Babylon:

 

Yirmiyah: 21:1:  The Word which came to Yirmiyah  from YaHVeH, when melek Zedkiyah sent to him Pashchur the ben of Melchiah/Melkiyah, and Zephanyah the ben of Ma-as-e-yah the kohen, saying,


Page 129


Yirmiyah: 21:2:  Inquire, I ask you, of YaHVeH for us; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon makes war against us; if so be that YaHVeH will deal with us according to all HIS wondrous works/pala that HE might go up from us.

 

I believe the last part of verse 2 should say “…or will he go up against us?” The reason I say this is because Zedkiyah and those that he sent to inquire of YaHVeH already knew those things that the Word of YaHVeH had already proclaimed to them previously; they were to repent or HE was going to punish them; so, when Pashchur and Zephanyah went to Yirmiyah they were asking him an either or question. The first half of the question was will YaHVeH do HIS wondrous works or was HE going to fight against us?

 

Yirmiyah: 21:3:  Then said Yirmiyah to them, this shall you say to Zedkiyah:

Yirmiyah: 21:4:  This said YaHVeH Elohiym of Yisrael; Observe, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which you all fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans/Kasdiy, which besiege you without the walls, and I will assemble them into the middle of this city.

Yirmiyah: 21:5:  And I MYSELF will fight against you with an Outstretched Hand and with a Strong Arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.

Yirmiyah: 21:6.  And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man/adam and beast/behemah: they shall die of a great pestilence.

Yirmiyah: 21:7.  And afterward, said YaHVeH, I will deliver Zedkiyah melek of Yahudah, and his servants, and the people, and such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life: and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have compassion/racham.

 

YaHVeH sets before the inhabitants of Yahvshalam the way of life and the way of death:

 

Yirmiyah: 21:8:  And to this people you shall say, this said YaHVeH; Observe, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.

Yirmiyah: 21:9:  He that remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goes out, and surrenders/naphal to the Chaldeans that besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be to him for loot.

Yirmiyah: 21:10:  For I have set MY Face against this city for evil/ra, and not for prosperity, said YaHVeH: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.

Yirmiyah: 21:11:  And touching the house of the melek of Yahudah, say, hear you the Word of YaHVeH;

Yirmiyah: 21:12:  O house of David, this said YaHVeH; Execute judgment in the morning, and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, unless MY Fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil/roa of your doings.

YaHVeH tells the melek who sets on the throne of David to execute judgment and righteousness:

 

Yirmiyah: 22:1:  This said YaHVeH; Go down to the house of the melek of Yahudah, and speak there this Word,

Yirmiyah: 22:2: And say, hear the Word of YaHVeH, O melek of Yahudah that sits on the throne of David, you, and your servants, and your people that enter in by these gates:

Yirmiyah: 22:3: This said YaHVeH; Execute you all judgment and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place.

Yirmiyah: 22:4: For if you all do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house melekiym/sovereigns sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.

Yirmiyah: 22:5: But if you all will not hear these words, I swear by MYSELF, said YaHVeH that this house shall become desolation.

Yirmiyah: 22:6: For this said YaHVeH to the house of the melek of Yahudah; you are Gilad to ME, and the head of Lebanon: yet surely I will make you a wilderness, and cities, which are not inhabited.

Topics: Gil'ad

 

Text:  hill of testimony, (B’reshiyth/Gen. 31:21), a mountainous region east of Yarden/Jordan. From its mountainous character it is called "the mount of Gilad" (B’reshiyth 31:25). It is called also "the land of Gilad" (B’midbar/Num. 32:1), and sometimes simply "Gilead" (T’hiyliym/Ps. 60:7; B’reshiyth 37:25). It comprised the possessions of the tribes of Gad (pronounced God) and Reuben and the south part of Menashsheh (Dabariym/Deut. 3: 13; B’midbar 32:40). It was bounded on the north by Bashan, and on the south by Moab and Ammon (B’reshiyth 31:21; Dabariym 3: 12-17). "Half Gilad" was possessed by Siyhon, and the other half, separated from it by the river Yabbok, by OG, king of Bashan. The deep ravine of the river Hieromax (the modern Sheriat el-Mandhur) separated Bashan from Gilad, which was about 60 miles in length and 20 in breadth, extending from near the south end of the Lake of Gennesaret/Hinneroth/Kinneroth to the north end of the Dead Sea. Abarim, Pisgah, Nebo, and Peor are its mountains mentioned in Scripture.

Text:  white, "the white mountain of Syria/Aram," is the loftiest and most celebrated mountain range in Syria. It is a branch running southward from the Caucasus, and at its lower end forking into two parallel ranges, the eastern or Anti-Lebanon, and the western or Lebanon proper. They enclose a long valley (Yahshua/Josh. 11:17) of from 5 to 8 miles in width, called by Roman writers Coele-Syria, now called el-Buka'a, "the valley," a prolongation of the valley of the Yarden.

 

Lebanon proper, Yebel es-Sharki, commences at its southern extremity in the gorge of the Leontes, the ancient Litany, and extends north-east, parallel to the Mediterranean coast, as far as the river Eleutherus, at the plain of Emesa, "the entering of Hamath" (B’midbar 34:8; 1 Melekiym 8:65), in all about 90 geographical miles in extent.

 

The average height of this range is from 6,000 to 8,000 feet; the peak of Yebel Mukhmel is about 10,200 feet, and the Sannin about 9,000. The highest peaks are covered with perpetual snow and ice.

 

In the recesses of the range wild beasts as of old still abound (2 Melekiym 14:9; Cant. 4:8). The scenes of the Lebanon are remarkable for their grandeur and beauty, and supplied the sacred writers with many expressive similes (T’hiyliym 29:5, 6; 72:16; 104:16-18; Cant. 4:15; Yashayah/Isa. 2:13; 35:2; 60:13; Hoshea 14:5).

 

It is famous for its cedars (Cant. 5:15), its wines (Hoshea 14:7), and its cool waters (Yirmiyah/Jer. 18:14). The ancient inhabitants were Giblites/Gibliym and Hivites/Hivviym (Yahshua 13:5; Shophetiym/Judg. 3:3). It was part of the Phoenician kingdom (1 Melekiym 5:2-6).

 

The eastern range, or Anti-Lebanon, or "Lebanon towards the sun rising," runs nearly parallel with the western from the plain of Emesa till it connects with the hills of Galilee/Galiylah in the south. The height of this range is about 5,000 feet. Its highest peak is Hermon (q.v.), from which a number of lesser ranges radiate.

 

Lebanon is first mentioned in the description of the boundary of Pelesheth/Palestine (Dabariym 1:7; 11:24). It was assigned to Yisrael, but was never conquered (Yahshua 13:2-6; Shophetiym 3:1-3).

 

The Lebanon range is now inhabited by a population of about 300,000 Christians, Maronites, and Druses, and is ruled by a Christian governor. The Anti-Lebanon is inhabited by Mohammedans, and is under a Turkish ruler.

Shallum was also called Elyakiym and his name was changed to Yahvyakiym by Paro/Pharaoh-Nechoh king of Egypt/Mitsrayim. He began to rein around 4371 FCA and took the place of his brother Yahvachaz who Paro carried to Egypt captive where he died.

A ben of melek Yoshiyah/Josiah (1 Dibrey ha Yamiym/1 Chr. 3: 15; Yirmiyah 22:11), who was elected to succeed his father on the throne, although he was two years younger than his brother Elyakiym/Eliakim. He assumed the crown under the name of Yahvachaz/Jehoahaz (q.v.). He did not imitate the example of his father (2 Melekiym 23:32), but was "a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men" (Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 19:3). His policy was anti-Egyptian, therefore Necho, at that time at Riblah, sent an army against Yahvshalam/Jerusalem, which at once yielded, and Yahvachaz was carried captive to the Egyptian camp, Elyakiym being appointed melek in his stead. He remained a captive in Egypt till his death, and was the first melek of Yahudah/Judah that died in exile.

Text:  healed by Yahvah/YaHVeH, or Yahveh will support; the ben of Amon, and his successor on the throne of Yahudah (2 Melekiym 22:1; 2 Dibrey ha Yamiym 34:1). His history is contained in 2 Melekiym 22, 23. He stands foremost among all the melekiym of the line of David for unswerving loyalty to YaHVeH (23:25). He "did that which was right in the sight of YaHVeH, and walked in all the way of David his father."

 

He ascended the throne at the early age of eight years (old; in 4340 FCA), and it appears that not till eight years afterwards did he begin "to seek after the Elohiym of David his father." At that age he devoted himself to Elohiym. He distinguished himself by beginning a war of extermination against the prevailing idolatry, which had practically been the state religion for some seventy years (2 Dibrey ha Yamiym 34:3; comp. Yirmiyah 25:3, 11, 29).


Page 133


In the eighteenth year of his reign (4358 FCA) he proceeded to repair and beautify the temple/heykal, which by time and violence had become sorely dilapidated (2 Melekiym 22:3, 5, 6; 23:23; 2 Dibrey ha Yamiym 34:11).

 

While this work was being carried on, Chilkiyah/Hilkiah, the high kohen/priest, discovered a roll, which was probably the original copy of the torah/law, the entire Pentateuch, written by Mosheh/Moses. When this book was read to him, the melek was alarmed by the things it contained, and sent for Huldah, the "prophetess/nebiyah," for her counsel. She spoke to him words of encouragement, telling him that he would be gathered to his fathers in shalom before the threatened days of judgment came. Yoshiyah immediately gathered the people together, and engaged them in a renewal of their ancient national covenant with Elohiym. The Passover was then celebrated, as in the days of his great predecessor, Yechizkiyah/Hezekiah, with unusual magnificence; nevertheless, "YaHVeH turned not from the fierceness of HIS great wrath wherewith HIS anger was kindled against Yahudah" (2 Melekiym 22:3-20; 23:21-27; 2 Dibrey ha Yamiym 35:1-19). During the progress of this great religious revolution Yirmiyah/Jeremiah helped it on by his earnest exhortations; soon after this, Paro/Pharaoh-Necho II. (q.v.), king of Egypt, in an expedition against the king of Assyria, with the view of gaining possession of Carchemish, sought a passage through the territory of Yahudah for his army. This Yoshiyah refused to permit. He had probably entered into some new alliance with the king of Assyria, and truthful to his word he sought to oppose the progress of Necho.

 

The army of Yahudah went out and encountered that of Egypt at Megiddo, on the verge of the Plain of Esdraelon. Yoshiyah went into the field in disguise, and was fatally wounded by a random arrow. His attendants conveyed him toward Yahvshalam, but had only reached Hadadrimmon, a few miles south of Megiddo, when he died (2 Melekiym 23:28, 30; comp. 2 Dibrey ha Yamiym 35:20-27), after a reign of thirty-one years. He was buried with the greatest respects in fulfillment of Huldah's naba/foretelling (2 Melekiym 22:20; comp. Yirmiyah 34:5). Yirmiyah composed a funeral elegy on this the best of the melekiym of Yisrael (Eykah/Lam. 4:20; 2 Dibrey ha Yamiym 35:25). The outburst of national grief on account of his death became proverbial (Zecharyah 12:11; comp. Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed 16:16).

This country extended from Gilead/Gilad in the south to Hermon in the north, and from the Yordan/Yarden on the west to Salcah on the east. Along with the half of Gilad it was given to the half-tribe of Manasseh/Menashsheh (Yahshua/Yosh. 13:29-31). Golan, one of its cities, became a "city of refuge" (Yahshua/Josh. 21:27). Argob, in Bashan, was one of Solomon's/Shelomoh’s commissariat districts (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 4:13). The cities of Bashan were taken by Hazael (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 10:33), but were soon after re-conquered by Yahvash (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 13:25), who overcame the Syrians in three battles, according to the word of Eliysha (19). From this time Bashan almost disappears from history, although we read of the wild cattle of its rich pastures (Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 39:18; T`hiyliym/ Ps. 22:12), the oaks of its forests (Yashayah/Isa. 2:13; Yechizkiyah 27:6; Zecharyah 11:2), and the beauty of its extensive plains (Amos 4:1; Yirmiyah 50: 19). Soon after the conquest, the name "Gilad" was given to the whole country beyond Yarden. After the Exile, Bashan was divided into four districts,

 

(1.) Gaulonitis, or Yaulan, the most western;

 

(2.) Auranitis, the Hauran (Yechizkiyah 47:16);

 

(3.) Argob or Trachonitis, now the Leyah; and

 

(4.) Batanaea, now Ard-el-Bathanyah, on the east of the Leyah, with many deserted towns almost as perfect as when they were inhabited. (See HAURAN.)

 

Yirmiyah: 22:21: I spoke to you in your prosperity; but you said, I will not hear. This has been your manner from your youth, that you obeyed not MY Voice.

 

Where did the children of Yisrael hear YaHVeH’s Voice? It was at Mt. Sinai when the Word of YaHVeH spoke the Ten Commandments to the whole congregation of Yisrael (Shemoth/Exodus 20; I Melekiym 8:9).

 

Yirmiyah: 22:22:  The wind shall eat up all your shepherds, and your lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shall you be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness.

He is also called Yeconiah/Yekonyah (Yirmiyah/Jer. 24:1; 27:20, etc.), and Coniah/Konyah (Yirmiyah 22: 24; 37:1). He was succeeded by his uncle, Mattaniah/Mattanyah = Zedekiah/Zedkiyah (q.v.). He was the last direct heir to the Jewish/Yahudiy/Yudiy crown.

 

He was carried captive to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar/Nebuchadrezzer, along with the flower of the nobility, all the leading men in Yerusalem/Yahvshalam, and a great body of the general population, some thirteen thousand in all (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 24: 12-16; Yirmiyah 52:28). After an imprisonment of thirty-seven years (Yirmiyah 52:31, 33), he was liberated by Evil-merodach, and permitted to occupy a place in the king's household and sit at his table, receiving "every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life" (52:32-34).

 

Yirmiyah: 22:25:  And I will give you into the hand of them that seek your life and into the hand of them whose face you fear, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans/Kasdiy/Kasdiymah.

Yirmiyah: 22:26: And I will cast you out, and your mother that bored you, into another country, where you all were not born; and there shall you all die.

Yirmiyah: 22:27: But to the land/erets where there they desire to return, there shall they not return.

Yirmiyah: 22:28: Is this man/iysh Konyah a despised broken idol? is he a vessel wherein is no pleasure? Why are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into a land/erets, which they know not?

Yirmiyah: 22:29: O earth/erets, earth/erets, earth/erets, hear the Word of YaHVeH.

 

I believe it is very significant that YaHVeH said “O earth, earth, earth…” three times. The third time will be the finality of the naba/foretelling. It is has one last fulfillment in our day. I remember three other verses that YaHVeH repeated three times in a row:

 

{Yashayah/ Isaiah: 6:3: And one cried unto another, and said, Kadosh, kadosh, kadosh, is YaHVeH of hosts: the entire earth/erets is full of HIS splendor/kabod.

 

Yirmiyah: 7:4: Trust you all not in lying words, saying, The heykal of YaHVeH, The heykal of YaHVeH, The heykal of YaHVeH, are these.

 

Yechizkiyah/ Ezekiel: 21:27: I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until He comes whose right it is; and I will give it Him.}

 

There was something else that Yahshua said when He was being lead away to be hung on the stake/tree/post:


Page 137


{Matthew: 23:37: O Yahvshalam, Yahvshalam, you that kill the nabiym, and stone them which are sent to you, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and you all would not!}

 

Notice Yahshua said “O Yahvshalam, Yahvshalam…” twice. The first time had already taken place between the times of 4374 – 4394 FCA (606 – 586 BCE) beginning in the days of king Nebuchadnezzar II. Now Yahshua was picking up in the days after His ascension leading up to around 5052 FCA (70 CE) when Yahvshalam was sacked and the heykal destroyed. We are now at the last and third time for these events to happen and the foretelling to have its final fulfillment.

 

Yirmiyah: 22:30: This said YaHVeH, Write you all this man/iysh childless/ariyriy, a man/geber that shall not prosper in his days: for no man/iysh of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Yahudah.

Woe to the pastors that destroy and scatter YaHVeH’s flock:

 

Yirmiyah: 23:1: Woe to the shepherds/ra`ah that destroy and scatter the sheep of MY pasture, said YaHVeH!

 

Who do you think verse one of Yirmiyah 23 is talking about since Yahshua has now come in the flesh, hung on the tree, raised from the dead and is now at YaHVeH`s right hand? It’s speaking about Christianity (Mat. 24:5; Rev. 13:11) and unbelieving Judaism (Acts 7; Romans 11)!

 

Notice the verse says “...destroy and scatter the sheep of MY pasture, said YaHVeH! What did Yahshua say in Yahvhanan (Yahvchanan) 10:16?

 

{Yahvchanan/Yohn/Yahn: 10:11: I am the worthy shepherd: the worthy shepherd gives His life for the sheep.

Yahn: 10:12: But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees: and the wolf catches them, and scatters the sheep.

Yahn: 10:13: The hireling flees, because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep.

Yahn: 10:14: I am the worthy shepherd, and know My sheep, and am known of Mine.

Yahn: 10:15: As the FATHER knows Me, even so know I the FATHER: and I lay down My life for the sheep.

Yahn: 10:16: And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear My voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

Yahn: 10:17: Therefore does My FATHER love Me, because I lay down My life, that I might take it again.}

Now another thing you need to remember is that the reference to a certain predator animal YaHVeH`s Word makes mention of is in reality pointing to a pagan goy/nation. Remember Daniel chapter 7. The wolf that Yahshua mentions is directly pointing to that empire that was occupying the Promised Land in His day, and today has counterfeited the Messiyah through the guise of a “church”. This “church” even uses in its title to describe itself the name of that empire occupying the Promised Land in the Messiyah`s day, and that empire was Rome. Refer back to Yirmiyah chapter 5.

Yirmiyah: 23:2: Therefore this said YaHVeH Elohiym of Yisrael against the shepherds/ra`ah that feed MY people; you all have scattered MY flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: observe, I will visit on you the evil of your doings, said YaHVeH.

 

How do the shepherds know when to visit YaHVeH`s flock? By the set seasons that YaHVeH has appointed. Those Sabbaths can be found listed in V`yakra/Leviticus 23.

 

Yirmiyah: 23:3: And I will gather the remnant of MY flock out of all countries where I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.

 

Understand verse 3 is speaking about the physical flesh and blood remnant of the children of Yisrael that will be left alive after the “Great Tribulation/Ya`akob`s Trouble” is over. This remnant is NOT talking about the body of Yahshua.

 

Yirmiyah:  23:4: And I will set up shepherds over them, which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith YaHVeH.

 

Verse 4 is speaking about the body of Yahshua, when YaHVeH says “...I will set up shepherds over them...” Remember the body of Yahshua will NOT be flesh and blood, because flesh and blood CANNOT inherit the Kingdom of YaHVeH. Refer to 1 Corinthians 15 (Read all of 1 Cor. 15) and Revelation 5:

 

{1 Corinthians: 15:50: Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of YaHVeH; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.

 

Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 1:6: And has made us melekiym and koheniym to YaHVeH and His FATHER; to HIM be splendor and dominion forever and ever. Amein.

 

Revelation: 5:10: And has made us to our Elohiym melekiym and koheniym: and we shall reign on the earth.}

Yirmiyah:  23:5:  Observe, the days come, said YaHVeH, that I will raise to David a righteous Branch, and a Melek shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.

 

Verse 5 is speaking about Yahshua the Messiyah. He will return and reign as Melek of Melekiym and Rab of Rabbiym (Yohn 18:37; Rev. 17:14; 19:16).

 

Yirmiyah: 23:6: In His days Yahudah shall be saved, and Yisrael shall dwell safely: and this is His name whereby He shall be called, YaHVeH RIGHTEOUS/ZEDEK.

Actually I don’t believe E-Sword or the Strong’s Concordance have translated/transliterated YaHVeH`s name correctly, because if you look into the subject and do a name study you will find out that “hovah” is an evil name. In Strong`s Hebrew Concordance number 1942 and 1943 you`ll see that “havvah/hovah” is related to causing ruin or calamity, see page 3:

Yirmiyah:  23:7:  Therefore, observe, the days come, said YaHVeH, that they shall no more say, YaHVeH lives, which brought up the children of Yisrael out of the land of Egypt/Mitsrayim;

Yirmiyah:  23:8: But, YaHVeH lives, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Yisrael out of the north country, and from all countries where I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.

 

Are you beginning to understand the difference between the body of Yahshua and the nation of Yisrael (Rev. 12)? The nation of Yisrael (Physical flesh and blood) will be placed back into their land. The body of Yahshua will be changed from corruptible (Physical flesh and blood/I Corinthians 15) to Incorruptible (Ruach and magnified with Yahshua /1 Yohn 3:2). We will be lifted off the earth to meet Yahshua in the air (Zecharyah 14; 1 Thessalonians 4: 13 – 17) so we can descend on the Mount of Olives together. We will be helping Yahshua to gather the children of Yisrael back together and placing them back in their land. The body of Yahshua will be reigning on this earth as melekiym and koheniym (Rev. 1:6; 5:10). Do you see the difference?

 

Yirmiyah: 23::9:  My heart within me is broken because of the nabiym/foretellers; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of YaHVeH, and because of the words of HIS kodeshness.


Yirmiyah is lamenting what he sees in Yisrael. We are seeing the same thing today that he saw if we believe in Yahshua the Messiyah, Christianity and Judaism and the error and corruption that they are in. Yahshua the Messiyah when He was walking on this earth in the flesh was dealing with the same problem. The chosen Messengers were dealing with the same issues. We today are dealing with the same situation. We need to make sure we are walking the talk. That we are practicing what we preach; that we are living what we believe and understand.

 

Yirmiyah: 23:10: For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing/oaths/alah the land mourns; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right.

Yirmiyah:  23:11: For both nabiy and kohen are profane; yes, in MY house have I found their wickedness, said YaHVeH.

 

In Yirmiyah’s day this was literally talking about the physical heykal (“MY house”) as well in Yahshua’s day (Matthew 24:1-2) and for one last third and final time in our day (Yirmiyah 7:4/Read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/40the3rdtemple.htm ). But it also is speaking about the heykal that YaHVeH is building now through Yahshua (1 Cor. 3:16). The enemy has planted tares in with the wheat (Mat. 13:24 – 30). They’re goats mixed in with the sheep (Mat. 25:31 – 46).


Page 141


Yirmiyah: 23:12:  That’s why their way shall be to them as slippery ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall in it: for I will bring evil on them, even the year of their visitation, said YaHVeH.

 

Notice the phrase “...the year of their visitation...” There is a set time for these foretellings/naba`s to be fulfilled (T`hiyliym/Psalms 102:13). Read article:

Yirmiyah: 23:13:  And I have seen folly in the nabiym/foretellers of Samaria/Shomeron; they naba/foretell in Baal, and caused MY people Yisrael to err.

 

Samaria/Shomeron is speaking of the House of Yisrael (Ten tribes/ 1 Melekiym/1 Kings 11 and 12), which was in the North. Yes, I think it is correct to say that the House of Yisrael is caught up in Christianity (Baal worship/Rev. 13:11). But you cannot say that all those in Christianity are of the House of Yisrael (physical flesh blood line). They have been scattered over the earth and have lost their identity. The shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael are Ephrayim (UK) and Menashsheh (USA) (B`reshiyth/Genesis 48; 49:22 – 26). Remember the body of Yahshua (Ruach and incorruptible) is composed of both children of Yisrael and Gentiles (Romans 11 and Revelation 7).

 

Yirmiyah: 23:14:  I have seen also in the nabiym of Yahvshalam a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none does return from his wickedness; they are all of them to ME as Sodom/Sedom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah/Amorah.

 

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: Sod'om/Sedom

 

Text:  burning; the walled, a city in the vale of Siddim (B`reshiyth/Gen. 13:10; 14:1-16). The wickedness of its inhabitants brought down upon it fire from shameh, by which it was destroyed (18:16-33; 19:1-29; Dabariym/Deut. 23:17). This city and its awful destruction are frequently alluded to in Scripture (Dabariym/Deut. 29:23; 32:32; Yashayah/Isa. 1:9, 10; 3:9; 13:19; Yirmiyah/Jer. 23:14; Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 16:46-56; Zephanyah/Zeph. 2:9; Matith`Yah/Matt. 10:15; Rom. 9:29; 2 Kepha/Pet. 2: 6, etc.).

 

No trace of it or of the other cities of the plain has been discovered, so complete was their destruction. Just opposite the site of Zoar, on the south-west coast of the Dead Sea, is a range of low hills, forming a mass of mineral salt called Yebel Usdum, "the hill of Sedom." It has been concluded, from this and from other considerations that the cities of the plain stood at the southern ends of the Dead Sea. Others, however, with much greater probability, contend that they stood at the northern end of the sea.


Page 142


Topics: Gomor'rah/Amorah

 

Text:  submersion, one of the five cities of the plain of Siddim (q.v.) which were destroyed by fire (Gen. 10:19; 13:10; 19:24, 28). These cities probably stood close together, and were near the northern extremity of what is now the Dead Sea. This city is always mentioned next after Sedom, both of which were types of impiety and wickedness (B`reshiyth/Gen. 18:20; Rom. 9:29). Their destruction is mentioned as an "ensample unto those that after should live unrighteously" (2 Kepha 2:6; Yudah/Yude 4-7). Their wickedness became proverbial (Dabariym/Deut. 32:32; Yashayah/Isa. 1:9, 10; Yirmiyah/Jer. 23:14); but that wickedness might be exceeded (Matith`Yah/Matt. 10:15; Mark/Yahvhanan-Makabiy 6:11). (See DEAD SEA).

 

When verse 14 says “I have seen also in the nabiym of Yahvshalam…” It is speaking about the House of Yudah (1 Melekiym 11 and 12); they were as then in the time of the Nabiy Yirmiyah as they are now today located to the south of Yahvshalam; refer back to 1 Melekiym chapters 11 and 12.

 

Yirmiyah: 23:15:  Therefore this said YaHVeH of hosts concerning the nabiym; observe I will feed them with wormwood/bitterness, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the nabiym of Yahvshalam is profaneness gone out into all the land.

Yirmiyah: 23:16:  This said YaHVeH of hosts, listen not to the words of the nabiym that naba/foretell to you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the Mouth of YaHVeH.

 

How do you know when a person is a true or false nabiy/foreteller (Dabariym/Deuteronomy 13)?

 

  1. If a true nabiy/foreteller is speaking the Word of YaHVeH he cannot stray from what the ancient nebiyiym have already spoken (1 Cor. 14:32). False nebiyiym will say any vain thing that comes into his or her mine (Yirmiyah 23:16), in order to gain profit/money/riches (Mat. 21:13; Yahn 2:16; 2 Kepha 2:3), fame or praise from men (Luke 16:15; Yahn 12:43). They will adjust their message to fit what the people want to hear (See Yirmiyah 28).

 

2. A true nabiy of today must live and teach from the law/torah placed INSIDE the ark through belief in Yahvshua (Shemoth/Exodus 20; 31:18; 1 Melekiym 8:9; Yeshayah/Isaiah. 8:16; Yahvchanan/Yahn 8:12; Rev. 11:19; 12:17; 14:12). A false nabiy will not (Yeshayah/Isaiah 8:20; Yohn 3:18).

 

3. A true nabiy will feed the sheep according to the seasons, which is the keeping of YaHVeH`s weekly (paganly referred to as Friday sundown to Saturday sundown/ B`reshiyth/Genesis 2:2; Shemoth/Exodus 16) and annual Sabbath and appointed time through belief in Yahvshua the Messiyah (Iybriyiym/Hebrews 4; V`yakra/Leviticus 23). A false nabiy will teach the traditions of man over the commandments of YaHVeH (Mark 7:7). A false nabiy will replace YaHVeH`s Sabbaths with pagan customs (Yeshayah/Isaiah 5:24; 24:5; Daniy`Yah/Daniel 7:25).

Page 143

You cannot necessarily tell if a person is a true or false nabiy by miracles or what he or she says comes to pass (Dabariym/Deuteronomy 13; Matthew 24:24; Acts 8:9 – 24). Remember the false nebiyiym will be doing lying wonders and deceiving miracles (Rev. 13:14; 16:14; 19:20).

 

Yirmiyah: 23:17:  They still say to them that despise ME, YaHVeH has said, You all shall have peace/shalom; and they say to every one that walks after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come on you.

 

Do you see the deception that is still ahead for the House of Yudah and Christianity (as of this writing 09/11/04 – 06/25/6986 the 7th day of the week/updated 01/29/6994 [5772] 7th day of the week/Shabbat [04/21/12])? Unbelieving men are still looking to them themselves or a man to bring them peace (Yirmiyah/Jeremiah 6:14; 1 Thessalonians 5:3). Their heart is not on YaHVeH and HIS Salvation (Yahshua). The House of Yudah and Christianity/disobedient House of Yisrael still look to this world’s government (Matthew 4:8 – 10; Ya`akob/James 4:4) to solve their problems (1 Cor. 6:1 – 8). We as believers are to be set apart (Kodesh) from this way of thinking (Iybriyiym/Hebrews 11:10, 16; 12:22; 13:14).

 

Yirmiyah: 23:18:  For who has stood in the counsel of YaHVeH, and has perceived and heard HIS Word? Who has marked HIS Word, and heard it?

 

Verse 18 is speaking to the body of Yahshua. Those who YaHVeH has called to HIS

Ben Yahshua (Yohn 6:44), they have repented from sin and been immersed (Acts 2:38). They have put their nose to the grindstone and studied YaHVeH`s Word from the Old Covenant (From B`reshiyth/Genesis to the Nabiym/Foretellers) to the New Testament/New Covenant (From Matthew to Revelation/Raz Galah) to show themselves approved (Yashayah/Isaiah 28:9 – 11; 2 Tim. 2:15). They build their understanding on the Chosen Messengers/Emissaries, Nabiym and Yahshua the Messiyah the Chief Corner Stone (Eph. 2:20).

 

Yirmiyah: 23:19:  Observe a whirlwind of YaHVeH is gone out in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously on the head of the wicked.

 

The word for “whirlwind” in Iybriy/Hebrew means storm or tempest. In scriptural language it usually means military invasion (Yeshayah/Isaiah 5:28 read the whole chapter), not to say YaHVeH doesn’t use the literal whirlwind/tornado/Hurricane to punish the disobedient people in the land; I have witness this time and time again in the Midwest USA just recently, not to mention a tornado that hit Surry, Virginia  doing some damage to Virginia Powers/Dominion Power nuclear power plant, and a 5.0 or slightly more earthquake that rocked most of Virginia including the Tidewater area!


Page 144


Yirmiyah: 23:20:  The anger of YaHVeH shall not return, until HE has executed, and till HE has performed the thoughts of HIS heart: in the latter days you all shall consider it perfectly.

 

Did you notice the phrase “in the latter days”? This naba/foretelling was not just for Yirmiyah’s day or Yahshua’s day, but it is also for our day (Yirmiyah: 22:29).

 

Yirmiyah: 23:21:  I have not sent these nabiym/foretellers, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they naba/foretold.

Yirmiyah: 23:22:  But if they had stood in MY counsel, and had caused MY people to hear MY Words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.

 

See the phrase “hear MY Words”? Remember to read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/38hearmyvoice.htm

 

It’s important to understand why the Word of YaHVeH used this phrase; it is linked to Mount Sinai.

Yirmiyah: 23:23:  Am I an Elohiym near by, said YaHVeH, and not an Elohiym far away?

Yirmiyah: 23:24: Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? Said YaHVeH. Do not I fill shamayim and earth? Said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 23:25: I have heard what the nebiyiym said, that foretell lies in MY name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.

 

In verse 25 I hear this saying all the time on religious radio and television programs from the prophets/profits of Christianity.

 

Yirmiyah: 23:26:  How long shall this be in the heart of the nabiym that foretell lies? Yes, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

Yirmiyah: 23:27: Who think to cause MY people to forget MY name by their dreams, which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers have forgotten MY name for Baal.

 

We know verse 27 is true today in Christianity and Judaism. Unbelieving and even those who say they believe in the Messiyah in Judaism will not even spell out the wicked pagan Babylonian name “God” (Not even our Elohiym’s name) in full when they write it on paper. But all you really have to do is pick up the Authorized King James Version and see in the majority of its translation that Christianity has been influenced by Judaism and left out YaHVeH’s name and replaced HIS name with the Baal title “LORD”.


See page 6 for description of “Baal”.

From Easton1s Scriptural Dictionary (edited); the word “Lord” and “Baal” means:

 

Topics: Lord

 

Text:  There are various Hebrew and Greek words so rendered.

 

(1.) Heb. YaHVeH, has been rendered in the English Bible Lord, printed in small capitals. This is the proper name of the Elohiym of the Hebrews. The form "Jehovah" is retained only in Shemoth/Ex. 6:3; T`hiyliym/Ps. 83:18; Yeshayah/Isa. 12:2; 26:4, both in the Authorized and the Revised Version.

 

(2.) Heb. 'adon, means one possessed of absolute control (see page 4 of this commentary to understand true origins of the title “adon”/“adonai”). It denotes a master, as of slaves (B`reshiyth/Gen. 24:14, 27), or a ruler of his subjects (45:8), or a husband, as lord of his wife (18:12). The old plural form of this Iybriy/Hebrew word is 'adonai. From a superstitious reverence for the name "YaHVeH," the Yudiym, in reading their Scriptures, whenever that name occurred, always pronounced it 'Adonai.

 

(3.) Greek kurios, a supreme master, etc. in the LXX. this is invariably used for "Jehovah" and "'Adonai."

 

(4.) Heb. ba'al, a master, as having domination. This word is applied to human relations, as that of husband, to persons skilled in some art or profession, and to heathen deities. "The men of Shechem," literally "the baals of Shechem" (Shophtetiym/Judg. 9:2, 3). These were the Yisraelite/Yisraeliy inhabitants who had reduced the Kena`aniym/Canaanites to a condition of vassalage (Yahshua/Josh. 16:10; 17:13).

 

(5.) Heb. seren, applied exclusively to the "lords of the Peleshethiym/Philistines" (Shophetiym 3:3). The LXX. render it by satrapies. At this period the Pelesheth were not, as at a later period (1 Shemuel 21:10), under a kingly government. (See Yahshua 13:3; 1 Shemuel 6:18.) There were five such lordships, viz., Gath, Ashdod, Azzah/Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron.

 

Yirmiyah: 23:28:  The nabiy that has a dream let him tell a dream; and he that has MY Word, let him speak MY Word trustfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? Said YaHVeH.

 

Remember the parable Yahshua spoke of the tares and wheat in Matith’Yah/Matthew 13.

 

Yirmiyah: 23:29:  Is not MY Word like fire? Said YaHVeH; and a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?


Page 146


{Matthew/Mattit`Yah ha Leviy: 21:44: And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.}

 

Yirmiyah: 23:30:  Therefore, observe, I am against the prophets, said YaHVeH that steal MY Words every one from his neighbor.

 

How can a false nabiy/prophet steal YaHVeH’s Word from his neighbor? When I think of something being stolen, a person must have it in possession first and then somebody has to come along a take the possession from that person. How do the false prophets steal YaHVeH’s Word from his neighbor? Is it because they exclude part of YaHVeH’s Word today or eliminate it all together? I know Christianity (and Judaism) in “many” (Mat. 24:5) denominations will not even consider the nabiym of old or the “Old Testament” and how it applies to us today.


These prophets are deceitfully stealing YaHVeH’s Word, which means they are taking it without YaHVeH’s permission from their neighbor. In other words YaHVeH reveals something to what the false prophets call “lay people” by HIS Ruach with HIS Written Word, but the false Baal prophets of Christianity will take that revelation out of the mans heart and say it means something else or it isn’t true. The same scenario we see from the Sadducees, Scribes and Pharisees. They did the same thing to the people when Yahshua walked the earth. They threaten the people they would be kicked out of the synagogue if they confessed Yahshua is the Mashiyach.


Yirmiyah: 23:31:  Observe, I am against the nabiym, said YaHVeH, that use their tongues, and say, HE said.

Yirmiyah: 23:32: Observe, I am against them that foretell false dreams, said YaHVeH, and do tell them, and cause MY people to err by their lies, and by their pach-az-uth/frivolity/laughing and joking; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 23:33: And when this people, or the nabiy, or a kohen, shall ask you, saying, what is the burden of YaHVeH? You shall then say to them, what burden? I will even forsake you, said YaHVeH.

Yirmiyah: 23:34:   And as for the nabiy, and the kohen, and the people, that shall say, the burden of YaHVeH, I will even punish that man and his house.

 

Verse 34 clearly reflects the attitude today when it comes to bringing the plain written Word of YaHVeH to Christian and Judaism fanatics. They will not hear it or they will say “that doesn’t apply to us.” Or they will call you a “dooms day prophet” or the most common phrased used is “loser”. It ties right into that Greco-Roman mentality as The Word of YaHVeH said the children of Yisrael would have in Yesha`Yah/Isaiah chapter 48 verses 4:

 

{Yeshayah: 48:4:  Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your brow brass;}


Page 147


Remember “brass” in scripture is talking about Greece and “iron” is talking about Rome. The children of Yisrael have the mentality of the Greeks hence “…brow brass…”, and they have the military-governmental and unrepentant mentality of Rome hence “…your neck is an iron sinew…”.

 

Always remember Daniel chapters 2 and 7 the statue made of metal and the four beasts when searching for understanding of  the foretelling in YaHVeH’s Word.

 

Yirmiyah: 23:35: This shall you all say every one to his neighbor, and every one to his brother, what has YaHVeH answered? And, What has YaHVeH spoken?

Yirmiyah: 23:36: And the burden of YaHVeH shall you all mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for you all  have perverted the Words of the living Elohiym YaHVeH of hosts our Elohiym.

Yirmiyah: 23:37: This shall you say to the nabiy, what has YaHVeH answered you? And, What has YaHVeH spoken?

Yirmiyah: 23:38: But since you all say, The burden of YaHVeH; therefore this said YaHVeH; Because you all say this word, The burden of YaHVeH, and I have sent to you, saying, You all shall not say, The burden of YaHVeH;

Yirmiyah: 23:39: Therefore, observe, I, even I, will entirely neglect you, and I will leave you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of MY presence:

Yirmiyah: 23:40: And I will bring an everlasting reproach on you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.

Two baskets of figs:

 

{Luke/Ur: 13:6: He spoke also this parable; a certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit on it, and found none.

Luke: 13:7: Then said he to the dresser of his vineyard, observe, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why burden the ground?

Luke: 13:8: And he answering said to him, Rabbi, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and pour dung:

Luke: 13:9: And if it produces fruit, well: and if not, then after that you can cut it down.}

 

I believe Yirmiyah received this vision from the Word of YaHVeH around 4374 FCA. I believe this falls in the 3rd year of Yahvyakiym`s reign over the House of Yahudah; see 2 Melekiym 24:1; Yahvyakiym obeys Nebuchadrezzer for the first three years he is appointed melek by him, but in the fourth year he rebels against him. I believe it was at least a year before he rebelled that Yirmiyah received this foretelling from the Word of YaHVeH. 


Page 148


Yirmiyah: 24:1:  YaHVeH showed me, and, observe, two baskets of figs were set before the heykal of YaHVeH, after that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah/Yechonyah/Yekonyah the ben of Jehoiakim/Yahvyakiym melek of Yahudah, and the princes of Yahudah, with the carpenters and smiths, from Yahvshalam, and had brought them to Babylon.

Yirmiyah: 24:2: One basket had very sweet figs, even like the figs that are first ripe: and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.

Yirmiyah: 24:3: Then said YaHVeH to me, what do you see, Yirmiyah? And I said, figs; the sweet figs, very sweet; and the bad, very bad, that cannot be eaten, they are so bad.

Yirmiyah: 24:4: Again the word of YaHVeH came to me, saying,

 

Sweet figs:

 

Yirmiyah: 24:5:  This said YaHVeH, the Elohiym of Yisrael; like these sweet figs, so will I acknowledge them that are carried away captive of Yahudah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans/Kasdiymah for their welfare.

Yirmiyah: 24:6: For I will set MY Eyes on them for prosperity, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.

Yirmiyah: 24:7: And I will give them a heart to know ME, that I am YaHVeH: and they shall be MY people, and I will be their Elohiym: for they shall return to ME with their whole heart.

 

Bad figs:

 

Yirmiyah: 24:8:  And as the bad figs, which cannot be eaten, they are so bad; surely this said YaHVeH, So will I give Zedekiah/Zedkiyah the melek of Yahudah, and his princes, and the residue of Yahvshalam, that remain in this land, and them that dwell in the land of Egypt/Mitsrayim:

Yirmiyah: 24:9: And I will deliver them to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth for their misery, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse; in all places where I shall drive them.

Yirmiyah: 24:10: And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, till they are consumed from off the land that I gave to them and to their fathers.

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 6:13: And the stars of shamayim fell to the earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.}

The reason I want to focus on this naba/foretelling of Yirmiyah is to expose an error that is being promoted by some. I have heard various people and organizations (who claim they are part of the body of Yahshua) claim that the “Jews” (House of “Judah”/Yudah) that are now in parts of the Promised Land are not really of the bloodline of the tribe of Yahudah and Benyamin (1 Melekiym 11 & 12). I want to state plainly and clearly that to promote such a teaching is a great error and contradiction of YaHVeH’s written Word! Understand all of YaHVeH’s foretelling Word must be fulfilled. For an organization to teach that those who now occupy Parts of the Promised Land including Yahvshalam, are not of the bloodline of the tribe of Yahudah have to deny what YaHVeH gave the Nabiym to proclaim in the first heykal period (Yirmiyah’s day) the 2nd heykal period (Yahshua the Messiyah the Ben of YaHVeH and the Chosen Messengers day Matthew chapters 23 and 24/Acts), and the 3rd heykal period (Our day/the heykal will be built again Yirmiyah: 7:4; Matthew 23:37; 24:1-2; Revelation chapters 6 and 11).

YaHVeH’s Word says:

 

{Matthew/Matith`Yah: 1:22: Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of YaHVeH by the nabiy, saying,}

 

This doesn’t mean what only took place at the time of the nabiy, it means until all of YaHVeH’s foretelling Word is fulfilled, including our time. The problem is we have to know how to properly apply it to our time (Yasha’Yah/Isaiah 42:9; 48:3).

 

Yahshua the Messiyah said when He walked on this earth in the flesh:

 

{Matith`Yah: 21:4: All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the nabiy, saying,

 

Matith`Yah: 26:54: But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that this it must be?

 

Matith`Yah: 26:56: But all this was done, that the scriptures of the nabiym be fulfilled. Then all the chosen ones forsook Him, and fled.}

 

Those who are teaching that those who now occupy Parts of the Promised Land are not of the House of Yahudah must repent from this error and get in proper line with the foretelling in YaHVeH’s Word.

Comment:

 

This falls around 4375 FCA (four thousand three hundred seventy five years from the creation of Adam). You also need to notice that the sequence of chapters in the KJV is out of order, why, I don’t know? But chapter 26 should come before chapter 25; notice chapter 26 is in Yahvyakiym`s first year and chapter 25 is in his Yahvyakiym`s fourth year. See time line page entitled “Timeline Adam - Today on web site. You must be a member to see page.

 

From Easton`s Scripture Dictionary (edited):

 

Topics: Nebuchadnez'zar

 

Text:  in the Babylonian orthography Nabu-kudur-uzur, which means "Nebo, protect the crown!" or the "frontiers." In an inscription he styles himself "Nebo's favourite." He was the ben and successor of Nabopolassar, who delivered Babylon from its dependence on Assyria/Ashshur and laid Nineveh in ruins. He was the greatest and most powerful of all the Babylonian kings.

 

He married the daughter of Cyaxares, and thus the Median and Babylonian dynasties were united. Necho II., the king of Egypt, gained a conquest over the Assyrians at Carchemish (See YOSHIYAH; MEGIDDO). This secured to Mitsrayim/Egypt the possession of the Syrian provinces of Assyria, including Pelesheth/Palestine. The remaining provinces of the Assyrian empire were divided between Babylonia and Media.

 

But Nabopolassar was ambitious of reconquering from Necho the western provinces of Syria; and for this purpose he sent his ben with a powerful army westward (Dan. 1:1). The Egyptians met him at Karchemish, where a furious battle was fought, resulting in the complete rout of the Egyptians, who were driven back (Yirmiyah: 46:2-12), and Syria and Phoenicia brought under the sway of Babylon (4375 FCA/605 BCE). From that time "the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land" (2 Melekiym 24:7).

 

Nebuchadnezzar also subdued the whole of Pelesheth/Palestine, and took Yahvshalam, carrying away captive a great multitude of the Yahudiym, among whom were Daniy`Yah and his companions (Daniy`Yah/Daniel 1:1, 2; Yirmiyah 27:19; 40:1). Three years after this, Yahvyakiym, who had reigned in Yahvshalam as a Babylonian vassal, rebelled against the oppressor, trusting in help from Egypt (2 Melekiym 24:1). This led Nebuchadnezzar to march an army again to the conquest of Yahvshalam, which at once yielded to him (4383 FCA/T.T.L. 598 BCE/597 BCE).

Yirmiyah: 25:2:  The which Yirmiyah the Nabiy spoke to all the people of Yahudah, and to all the inhabitants of Yahvshalam, saying,

Yirmiyah: 25:3: From the thirteenth year of Yoshiyah the ben of Amon melek of Yahudah, even until this day, that is the twenty third year, the word of YaHVeH has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising early and speaking; but you all have not listen!

 

Comment:

 

Notice verse 3; Yirmiyah`s 23rd year of proclaiming YaHVeH`s Word to the people fell in 4376 FCA.

 

Yirmiyah: 25:4: And YaHVeH has sent to you all his servants the Nabiym, rising early and sending them; but you all have not heeded, nor inclined your ear to hear.

Yirmiyah: 25:5: They said, Turn you all again now every one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that YaHVeH has given to you and to your fathers for ever and ever:

Yirmiyah: 25:6: And go not after other elohiym to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke ME not to anger with the works of your hands; and I will do you no harm.

 

Comment:

 

I believe it is important to focus on this phrase “with the works of your hands”.  I believe this applies more today than it ever did in Yirmiyah’s time. If we consider the implication of that phrase we can look today at our modern industrialized world and see that it revolves primarily around the manufacturing of materials: Car, computers, television, audio players, appliances... and so on, that’s just consumer materials.

 

Now let’s talk about the things that are made with man’s hands that deal with military technology:  Such as aircraft carriers, jet aircraft, missiles (conventional and nuclear), tanks, sophisticated stealth technology, machine guns... the list goes on. Each nation trying to out do the other nation for FEAR (2 Tim. 1:17) the other nation will get the advantage over the other (Ya’akob/James 4:1-2).

 

Instead of the House of Yudah in Yirmiyah’s day obeying the voice of YaHVeH (Shemoth/Exodus 20; Dabariym/Deut. 4:10 – 13) and looking for HIS protection they were leaning on their on strength, their own fleshy arm to protect them, the works of their own hands (Yir. 17:5). The modern day House of Yudah and the shepherd tribes of the House of Yisrael (UK and USA/Christianity Rev. 13:11; Mat. 24:5) continue to carry on that same tradition.

 

Remember this message is going to the people of Yudah and the inhabitants of Yahvshalam; you must refer to Revelation chapter 11 and the two witnesses.


Page 152


Yirmiyah: 25:7:  Yet you all have not listen to ME, said YaHVeH; so that you all might provoke ME to anger with the works of your hands to your own hurt.

Yirmiyah: 25:8:  For this reason this said YaHVeH of hosts; because you all have not heard MY Words,

Yirmiyah: 25:9: Observe, I will send and take all the families of the north, said YaHVeH, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, MY servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants of it, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolation's.

 

Comment:

 

Remember when Yirmiyah recorded this; the first Heykal had not yet been burnt down.

Comment:

 

In verse 9 YaHVeH calls the king of Babylon HIS servant. Why does EL SHADDAI call the king of Babylon HIS servant? The Elohiym of Yisrael will USE the king of Babylon to punish the children of Yisrael for disobedience. Refer to Yashayah/Isaiah: 10: 5:

 

{Yashayah/Isaiah: 10:5: O Assyrian, the rod of MY anger, and the staff in their hand is MY indignation.}

 

Comment:

 

YaHVeH has always used the gentile kingdoms to punish the children of Yisrael.

 

Yirmiyah: 25:10:  Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.

Yirmiyah: 25:11:  And this entire land shall be in desolation and astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

 

Read article: https://www.makethewaystraight.com/39yahvehhasasettime.htm

 

Yirmiyah: 25:12:  And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, said YaHVeH, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans/Kasdiymah, and will make it perpetual desolation's.


Page 153


Yirmiyah: 25:13: And I will bring on that land all MY words, which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Yirmiyah has naba/foretold against all the nations/goyiym.

Yirmiyah: 25:14: For many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of them also: and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their own hands.

 

Comment:

 

When I read verse 14, Matith`Yah chapters 25:31 – 46 comes to my mind:

 

{Mattit`Yah/Matthew: 25:31: When the Ben of Adam shall come in His splendor, and all the kodesh malakiym with Him, then shall He sit on the throne of His splendor:

M't: 25:32: And before Him shall be gathered all nations/goyiym: and He shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats:

M't: 25:33: And He shall set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.

M't: 25:34: Then shall the Melek say to them on His right hand, Come, all you prospered of My FATHER, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

 

M't: 25:41: Then shall He say also to them on the left hand, Depart from Me, all you cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

 

M't: 25:44: Then shall they also answer Him, saying, “Lord”, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to You?

M't: 25:45: Then shall He answer them, saying, Truly I say to you, Inasmuch as you all did it not to one of the least of these, you all did it not to Me.

M't: 25:46: And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

 

Comment:

 

Notice in verse 44 I put “Lord” in quotations, this is because the goats/cursed that Yahvshua/Yahvsha has placed on His left side are steeped in “Jesus, god, lord, Baal, Sun worship”, and they don’t believe there doing anything wrong now in our time, so when they approach before the Messiyah they will continue to speak to Him the way they always had done it before He returned.}

 

Comment:


Now, it is very important for you to notice and make note of the time mark YaHVeH has placed in HIS written Word. Notice verse 12; YaHVeH says HE is going to punish the king of Babylon; I believe this 70 year count began when the House of Yudah became a nation in our modern day. I believe that count started on YaHVeH’s first Chodesh, 1st day of the Chodesh 6930 FCA/1948 CE; that’s why we according to the Timeline as I am updating this commentary, in the year 6996 FCA, they have been a nation for 66 years. 


Page 154


YaHVeH causes the nations to drink from the wine cup HE has poured for them:

 

Yirmiyah: 25:15:  For this said YaHVeH Elohiym of Yisrael to me; Take the wine cup of this fury at MY Hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send you, to drink it.

 

Comment:


Now I believe verse 15 has a dual fulfillment. I believe during Yirmiyah’s time he did this and I believe he will be doing this again at the last trump (7th trumpet) when Yahshua Messiyah returns. Compare this with Revelation and what the malak told Yohn/Yahvchanan he was going to do (Revelation chapter 15 & 16):

 

{Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 10:7: but in the days of the voice of the seventh malak, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of YaHVeH should be finished, as HE has declared to HIS servants the nabiym.

Re: 10:8: And the voice which I heard from shamayim spoke to me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the malak which stands on the sea and on the earth.

Re: 10:9: And I went to the malak, and said to him, give me the little book. And he said to me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make your belly bitter, but it shall be in your mouth sweet as honey.

Re: 10:10: And I took the little book out of the malak's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.

Re: 10:11: And he said to me, You must naba/foretell again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and melekiym.}

 

Comment:


I believe Yahvchanan at the sound of the 7th trumpet will be doing this assignment, because he only with Yirmiyah will be resurrected and be part of the Body of Yahshua.

 

Yirmiyah: 25:16:  And they shall drink, and be moved, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.

Yirmiyah: 25:17: Then took me the cup at YaHVeH's hand, and made all the nations/goyiym to drink, whom YaHVeH had sent me:

Yirmiyah: 25:18: To wit, Yahvshalam, and the cities of Yahudah, and the melekiym of it, and the princes of it, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse; as it is this day;

Yirmiyah: 25:19: Pharaoh/Paro king of Mitsrayim/Egypt1, and his servants, and his princes/sariym, and all his people;

Yirmiyah: 25:20: And all the mingled people2, and all the kings of the land of Uz3, and all the kings of the land of the Pelistiym/Philistines4, and Ashkelon5, and Gaza/Azzah6, and Ekron7, and the remnant of Ashdod8,

Yirmiyah: 25:21: Edom9, and Moab10, and the children of Ammon11,

Remember I use these dictionaries and commentaries to give a historical understanding. It does not mean I agree with everything the authors of them write.

 

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

1) Topics: E'gypt/Mitsrayim

 

Text:  the land of the Nile and the pyramids, the oldest kingdom of which we have any record, holds a place of great significance in Scripture. The Egyptians belonged to the white race, and their original home is still a matter of dispute. Many scholars believe that it was in Southern Arabia, and recent excavations have shown that the valley of the Nile was originally inhabited by a low class population, perhaps belonging to the Nigritian stock, before the Egyptians of history entered it.

 

The ancient Egyptian language, of which the latest form is Coptic, is distantly connected with the Semitic family of speech. Egypt consists geographically of two halves, the northern being the Delta, and the southern Upper Egypt, between Cairo and the First Cataract. In the Old Testament, Northern or Lower Egypt is called Mazor, "the fortified land" (Yeshayah/Isa. 19:6; 37: 25, where the A.V. mistranslates "defence" and "besieged places"); while Southern or Upper Egypt is Pathros, the Egyptian Pa-to-Res, or "the land of the south" (Yeshayah/Isa. 11:11). But the whole country is generally mentioned under the dual name of Mizraim/Mitsrayim, "the two Mazors."

 

The civilization of Egypt goes back to a very remote antiquity. The two kingdoms of the north and south were united by Menes, the founder of the first historical dynasty of kings.


Page 156


The first six dynasties constitute what is known as the Old Empire, which had its capital at Memphis, south of Cairo, called in the Old Testament Moph (Hoshea 9:6) and Noph. The native name was Mennofer, "the good place."

 

The Pyramids were tombs of the monarchs of the Old Empire, those of Gizeh being erected in the time of the Fourth Dynasty. After the fall of the Old Empire came a period of decline and obscurity. This was followed by the Middle Empire, the most powerful dynasty of which was the Twelfth.

 

The Fayyum was rescued for agriculture by the kings of the Twelfth Dynasty; and two obelisks were erected in front of the temple of the sun god at “On” or Heliopolis (near Cairo), one of which is still standing. The capital of the Middle Empire was Thebes, in Upper Egypt. The Middle Empire was overthrown by the invasion of the Hyksos, or shepherd princes from Asia, who ruled over Egypt, more especially in the north, for several centuries, and of whom there were three dynasties of kings. They had their capital at Zoan or Tanis (now San), in the northeastern part of the Delta. It was in the time of the Hyksos that Abraham, Ya`akob/Yacob, and Yoseph entered Egypt. The Hyksos were finally expelled about 1600 BCE/2842 FCA, by the hereditary princes of Thebes, who founded the Eighteenth Dynasty, and carried the war into Asia. Kena`an/Canaan and Syria were subdued, as well as Cyprus, and the boundaries of the Egyptian Empire were fixed at the Euphrates. The Soudan, which had been conquered by the kings of the Twelfth Dynasty, was again annexed to Egypt, and the eldest ben of the Pharaoh took the title of "Prince of Cush."

 

One of the later kings of the dynasty, Amenophis IV., or Khu-n-Aten, endeavored to supplant the ancient state religion of Egypt by a new belief derived from Asia, which was a sort of pantheistic monotheism, the one supreme god being adored under the image of the solar disk. The attempt led to religious and civil war, and the Pharaoh retreated from Thebes to Central Egypt, where he built a new capital, on the site of the present Tell-el-Amarna.

 

The cuneiform tablets that have been found there represent his foreign correspondence (about 1400 BCE/3580 FCA). He surrounded himself with officials and courtiers of Asiatic, and more especially Canaanitish/Kena`aniy, extraction; but the native party succeeded eventually in overthrowing the government, the capital of Khu-n-Aten was destroyed, and the foreigners were driven out of the country, those that remained being reduced to serfdom.

 

The national triumph was marked by the rise of the Nineteenth Dynasty, in the founder of which, Rameses I., we must see the "new king, who knew not Yoseph." His grandben, Rameses II., reigned sixty-seven years (T.T.L. 1348-1282 BCE/3521 – 3587 FCA/1459 – 1393 BCE), and was an indefatigable builder. As Pithom, excavated by Dr. Naville in 1883 CE/6865 FCA, was one of the cities he built, he must have been the Pharaoh of the Oppression. The Pharaoh of the Exodus might have been one of his immediate successors, whose reigns were short. Under them Egypt lost its empire in Asia, and was itself attacked by barbarians from Libya and the north.


Page 157


Comment:

 

Scholars don’t know for sure what king came to power that did not know Yoseph. In the book of Yashar (Yashar: 63:4) it mentions Melol as being the king that takes the throne 30 years after the death of Yoseph (2942 FCA), and on my extrapolated timeline he is the king I have placed in power who enslaved the children of Yisrael. Understand this is what I have extrapolated from the book of Yashar, because his time sequence does not line up properly as it is presented in the translation I have. There possibly could have been two Paro's/Pharaoh's named Melol.

 

Now take notice of the time when Rameses II began to reign and when Melol began to reign. It’s about 579 years difference, so the traditional time line is not correct; unless Rameses II’s name was also Melol.


Continued from Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary:

 

The Nineteenth Dynasty soon afterwards by civil war; and for a short time a Canaanite, Arisu, ruled over it. Then came the Twentieth Dynasty, the second Pharaoh of which, Rameses III., restored the power of his country. In one of his campaigns he overran the southern part of Palestine, where the Yisraelites had not yet settled. They must at the time have been still in the wilderness. But it was during the reign of Rameses III. that Egypt finally lost Gaza and the adjoining cities, which were seized by the Pulista, or Pelishtiym/Philistines.

 

After Rameses III., Egypt fell into decay. Solomon/Shelomoh married the daughter of one of the last kings of the Twenty-first Dynasty, which was overthrown by Shishak I., the general of the Libyan mercenaries, who founded the Twenty-second Dynasty (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 11:40; 14:25, 26). A list of the places he captured in Pelesheth/Palestine is engraved on the outside of the south wall of the temple of Karnak.

 

In the time of Yechizkiyah/Hezekiah, Egypt was conquered by Ethiopians from the Soudan, who constituted the Twenty-fifth Dynasty. The third of them was Tirhakah (2 Melekiym 19:9). In 674 BCE/4309 FCA it was conquered by the Assyrians, who divided it into twenty satrapies, and Tirhakah was driven back to his ancestral dominions. Fourteen years later it successfully revolted under Psammetichus I. of Sais, the founder of the Twenty-sixth Dynasty. Among his successors were Necho (2 Melekiym 23:29) and Hophra, or Apries (Yirmiyah/Jer. 37:5, 7, 11).

 

The dynasty came to an end in 525 BCE/4472 - 4480 FCA, when the country was subjugated by Cambyses. Soon afterwards it was organized into a Persian satrapy. The title of Pharaoh, given to the Egyptian kings, is the Egyptian “Per-aa”, or "Great House," which might be compared to that of "Sublime Porte." It is found in very early Egyptian texts.

 

Page 158


The Egyptian religion was a strange mixture of pantheism and animal worship, the gods being adored in the form of animals. While the educated classes resolved their manifold deities into manifestations of one omnipresent and omnipotent divine power, the lower classes regarded the animals as incarnations of the gods.

 

Under the Old Empire, Ptah, the Creator, the god of Memphis, was at the head of the Pantheon; afterwards Amon, the god of Thebes, took his place. Amon, like most of the other gods, was identified with Ra, the sun god of Heliopolis.

 

The Egyptians believed in a resurrection and future life, as well as in a state of rewards and punishments dependent on our conduct in this world. The judge of the dead was Osiris, who had been slain by Set, the representative of evil, and afterwards restored to life. His death was avenged by his son Horus, whom the Egyptians invoked as their "Redeemer." Osiris and Horus, along with Isis, formed a trinity, who were regarded as representing the sun god under different forms.

 

Comment:

 

It is clear from this paragraph from Easton`s Dictionary where Christianity receives its abominable doctrine of the “trinity” from.

 

Even in the time of Abraham, Egypt was a flourishing and settled monarchy. Its oldest capital, within the historic period, was Memphis, the ruins of which might still be seen near the Pyramids and the Sphinx. When the Old Empire of Menes came to an end, the seat of empire was shifted to Thebes, some 300 miles farther up the Nile. A short time after that, the Delta was conquered by the Hyksos, or shepherd kings, who fixed their capital at Zoan, the Greek Tanis, now San, on the Tanic arm of the Nile. All this occurred before the time of the new king "which knew not Yoseph" (B`reshiyth/Ex. 1:8).

 

{Note:

 

It’s just too much of a coincidence to me that these shepherd kings lived in the same area that the children of Yisrael lived while they were dwelling in and then eventually enslaved in Egypt. Why these shepherd kings/Hyksos have not been scrutinized more closely is a mystery to me, but if you look at a map of the location of Zoan/Greek Tanis and Goshen they are in the same spot. Even Easton`s description without hesitation dismisses them at the end of his paragraph! The children of Yisrael were in Egypt for over 500 years (in my timeline I have them living in Egypt 502 years), which 400 years of that they were enslaved. The children of Yisrael were shepherds; were these Hyksos called shepherd kings because they were dominating the land of Egypt, because YaHVeH was prospering them, and this is why the Egyptians became so fearful of them and said:

Red dot indicates the location of Goshan

Shemoth/Exodus: 1:8:  Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Yoseph.

Shemoth: 1:9:  And he said to his people, Observe, the people of the children of Yisrael are more and mightier than we:

Shemoth: 1:10:  Come on, let us deal wisely with them; unless they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when a war breaks out, they join also to our enemies, and fight against us, and shall go up out of the land...

 

From Yosephus` Against Apion Book I (edited) he writes:

 

14. I shall begin with the writings of the Egyptians; not indeed of those that have written in the Egyptian language, which it is impossible for me to do. But Manetho was a man who was by birth an Egyptian, yet had he made himself master of the Greek learning, as is very evident; for he wrote the history of his own country in the Greek tongue, by translating it, as he saith himself, out of their sacred records; he also finds great fault with Herodotus for his ignorance and false relations of Egyptian affairs. Now this Manetho, in the second book of his Egyptian History, writes concerning us in the following manner. I will set down his very words, as if I were to bring the very man himself into a court for a witness: "There was a king of ours whose name was Timaus. Under him it came to pass, I know not how, that Elohiym was averse to us, and there came, after a surprising manner, men of ignoble birth out of the eastern parts, and had boldness enough to make an expedition into our country, and with ease subdued it by force, yet without our hazarding a battle with them. So when they had gotten those that governed us under their power, they afterwards burnt down our cities, and demolished the temples of the gods, and used all the inhabitants after a most barbarous manner; nay, some they slew, and led their children and their wives into slavery. At length they made one of themselves king, whose name was Salatis; he also lived at Memphis, and made both the upper and lower regions pay tribute, and left garrisons in places that were the most proper for them. He chiefly aimed to secure the eastern parts, as fore-seeing that the Assyrians, who had then the greatest power, would be desirous of that kingdom, and invade them; and as he found in the Saite Nomos, [Sethroite,] a city very proper for this...

Page 160

…purpose, and which lay upon the Bubastic channel, but with regard to a certain theologic notion was called Avaris, this he rebuilt, and made very strong by the walls he built about it, and by a most numerous garrison of two hundred and forty thousand armed men whom he put into it to keep it. Thither Salatis came in summer time, partly to gather his corn, and pay his soldiers their wages, and partly to exercise his armed men, and thereby to terrify foreigners. When this man had reigned thirteen years, after him reigned another, whose name was Beon, for forty-four years; after him reigned another, called Apachnas, thirty-six years and seven months; after him Apophis reigned sixty-one years, and then Janins fifty years and one month; after all these reigned Assis forty-nine years and two months. And these six were the first rulers among them, who were all along making war with the Egyptians, and were very desirous gradually to destroy them to the very roots. This whole nation was styled HYCSOS, that is, Shepherd-kings: for the first syllable HYC, according to the sacred dialect, denotes a king, as is SOS a shepherd; but this according to the ordinary dialect; and of these is compounded HYCSOS: but some say that these people were Arabians." Now in another copy it is said that this word does not denote Kings, but, on the contrary, denotes Captive Shepherds, and this on account of the particle HYC; for that HYC, with the aspiration, in the Egyptian tongue again denotes Shepherds, and that expressly also; and this to me seems the more probable opinion, and more agreeable to ancient history. [But Manetho goes on]: "These people, whom we have before named kings, and called shepherds also, and their descendants," as he says, "kept possession of Egypt five hundred and eleven years." After these, he says, "That the kings of Thebais and the other parts of Egypt made an insurrection against the shepherds, and that there a terrible and long war was made between them." He says further, "That under a king, whose name was Alisphragmuthosis, the shepherds were subdued by him, and were indeed driven out of other parts of Egypt, but were shut up in a place that contained ten thousand acres; this place was named Avaris." Manetho says, "That the shepherds built a wall round all this place, which was a large and a strong wall, and this in order to keep all their possessions and their prey within a place of strength, but that Thummosis the son of Alisphragmuthosis made an attempt to take them by force and by siege, with four hundred and eighty thousand men to lie round about them, but that, upon his despair of taking the place by that siege, they came to a composition with them, that they should leave Egypt, and go, without any harm to be done to them, whithersoever they would; and that, after this composition was made, they went away with their whole families and effects, not fewer in number than two hundred and forty thousand, and took their journey from Egypt, through the wilderness, for Syria; but that as they were in fear of the Assyrians, who had then the dominion over Asia, they built a city in that country which is now called Judea, and that large enough to contain this great number of men, and called it Jerusalem. (9) Now Manetho, in another book of his, says, "That this nation, thus called Shepherds, were also called Captives, in their sacred books." And this account of his is the truth; for feeding of sheep was the employment of our forefathers in the most ancient ages (10) and as they led such a wandering life in feeding sheep, they were called Shepherds. Nor was it without reason that they were called Captives by the Egyptians, since one of our ancestors, Yoseph, told the king of Egypt that he was a captive, and afterward sent for his brethren into Egypt by the king's permission. But as for these matters, I shall make a more exact inquiry about them elsewhere. (11)

 

Comment:


Notice Manetho says they kept possession of Egypt 511 years; not to far from what I calculated of 502 years.}


Page 161

In later times Egypt was conquered by the Persians (525 BCE/4472 – 4480 FCA), and by the Greeks under Alexander the Great (332 BCE/4650 FCA), after whom the Ptolemies ruled the country for three centuries. Subsequently it was for a time a province of the Roman Empire; and at last, in 1517 CE/6499 FCA, it fell into the hands of the Turks, of whose empire it still forms nominally a part.

 

Abraham and Sarah went to Egypt in the time of the shepherd kings. The exile of Yoseph and the migration of Ya`akob to "the land of Goshen" occurred about 200 years later. On the death of Solomon/Shelomoh, Shishak, king of Egypt, invaded Palestine (1 Melekiym 14:25). He left a list of the cities he conquered.

 

{Comment:


Notice how conclusively Easton`s says that it was not Yoseph living during the shepherd kings but Abraham. It is due to these type of statements that people believe conclusively that there is no other possible explanation of the account of the children of Yisrael enslavement in Egypt, and why it has not been looked into more closely. What Easton should have said is; he believes it was during the time Abraham and Sarah that the shepherd kings existed, then it would have left the door open for more research into the subject.}

 

A number of remarkable clay tablets, discovered at Tell-el-Amarna in Upper Egypt, are the most important historical records ever found in connection with the scriptures. They most fully confirm the historical statements of the Book of Yahshua, and prove the antiquity of civilization in Syria and Palestine. As the clay in different parts of Palestine differs, it has been found possible by the clay alone to decide where the tablets come from when the name of the writer is lost. The inscriptions are cuneiform, and in the Aramaic language, resembling Assyrian. The writers are Phoenicians, Amorites, and Philistines, but in no instance Hittites, though Hittites are mentioned.

 

The tablets consist of official dispatches and letters, dating from 1480 BCE/3653 – 3672 FCA, addressed to the two Pharaohs, Amenophis III. and IV., the last of this dynasty, from the kings and governors of Phoenicia and Palestine. There occur the names of three kings killed by Yahshua, Adoni-zedec, king of Yahvshalam/Yerusalem, Yaphia, king of Lachish (Yahshua/Josh. 10:3), and Yabin, king of Hazor (11:1); also the Hebrews (Abiri) are said to have come from the desert.

 

The principal foretellings of Scripture regarding Egypt are these, Yeshayah/Isa. 19; Yirmiyah/Jer. 43: 8-13; 44:30; 46; Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 29-32; and it might be easily shown that they have all been remarkably fulfilled. For example, the singular disappearance of Noph (i.e., Memphis) is a fulfillment of Yirmiyah/Jer. 46:19, Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 30:13.

2) Mingled People:

 

20.  All the mingled people – mercenary foreign troops serving under Pharoah-hophra in the time of Yirmiyah. The employment of these foreigners provoked the native Egyptians to overthrow him. Psammetichus, father of Pharaoh-nechoh, also had given a settlement in Egypt to Ionian and Carian adventurers (Herodotus. ii. 152, 154). Cf. ch. 1. 37; note, Yeshayah/Isa. xix. 1,2,3; xx. 1; Yechizkiyah/Ezek. xxx. 5.  The Hebrew expression “the mingled people” [????] here is first found in Shemoth/Exod. Xii. 38; where, however, the article “the” is not prefixed.

 

3) Uz – in the geographical order here, between Egypt and the states along the Mediterranean; therefore not the “Uz” of Yob, i. 1 (north of Arabia Deserta), but the northern part of Arabia Petrea, between the sea and Edom/Idumea (Eykah/Lam. Iv. 21; se B`reshiyth/Gen. Xxxvi. 20, 28).

 

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary (edited):

 

4) Topics: Philis'tines/Pelishtiym

 

Text:  (B’reshiyth/Gen. 10:14, R.V.; but in A.V., "Philistim"), a tribe allied to the Phoenicians. They were a branch of the primitive race, which spread over the whole district of the Lebanon and the valley of the Yarden/Jordan, and Crete and other Mediterranean islands. Some suppose them to have been a branch of the Rephaim (2 Shemuel/Sam. 21:16-22).

 

In the time of Abraham they inhabited the southwest of Yahudea/Yudea, Abimelech of Gerar being their king (B`reshiyth/Gen. 21:32, 34; 26:1). They are, however, not noticed among the Kenaaniy/Canaanitish tribes mentioned in the Pentateuch. They are spoken of by Amos (9:7) and Yirmiyah (47:4) as from Kaphtor, i.e., probably Crete, or, as some think, the Delta of Egypt. In the whole record from Shemoth/Exodus to Shemuel they are represented as inhabiting the tract of country, which lay between Yahudea and Egypt (Shemoth 13:17; 15:14, 15; Yahvshua/Josh. 13:3; 1 Shemuel 4).


 Page 163


This powerful tribe made frequent incursions against the Iybriyiym/Hebrews. There was almost perpetual war between them. They sometimes held the tribes, especially the southern tribes, in degrading servitude (Shophetiym/Judg. 15:11; 1 Shemuel 13:19-22); at other times they were defeated with great slaughter (1 Shemuel 14:1-47; 17). These hostilities did not cease till the time of Yechizkiyah/Hezekiah (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 18:8), when they were entirely subdued. They still, however, occupied their territory, and always showed their old hatred to Yisrael (Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 25:15-17).


They were finally conquered by the Romans. The Pelishtiym/Philistines are called Pulsata or Pulista on the Egyptian monuments; the land of the Philistines (Philistia) being termed Palastu and Pilista in the Assyrian inscriptions. They occupied the five cities of Gaza, Ashkelon, Ashdod, Ekron, and Gath, in the southwestern corner of Kena`an/Canaan, which belonged to Egypt up to the closing days of the Nineteenth Dynasty. The occupation took place during the reign of Rameses III. of the Twentieth Dynasty. The Pelishtiym had formed part of the great naval confederacy, which attacked Egypt, but were eventually repulsed by that Paro/Pharaoh, who, however, could not dislodge them from their settlements in Pelesheth/Palestine.

 

As they did not enter Pelesheth till the time of the Exodus, the use of the name Pelishtiy/Philistines in B`reshiyth/ Gen. 26:1 must be proleptic. Indeed the country was properly Gerar, as in ch. 20. They are called Allophyli, "foreigners," in the Septuagint, and in the Books of Shemuel they are spoken of as uncircumcised. It would therefore appear that they were not of the Semitic race, though after their establishment in Kena`an they adopted the Semitic language of the country. We learn from the Tanakh/Old Testament that they came from Kaphtor, usually supposed to be Crete. From Pelesheth/Philistia the name of the land of the Peleshethiym came to be extended to the whole of "Palestine." Many scholars identify the Peleshethiym with the Pelethites of 2 Shemuel 8:18.

 

5) Topics: Ash'kelon = Askelon = Ascalon

 

Text:  was one of the five cities of the Pelishtiym/Philistines (Yahshua/Josh. 13:3; 1 Shemuel 6:17). It stood on the shore of the Mediterranean, 12 miles north of Gaza. It is mentioned on an inscription at Karnak in Egypt as having been taken by king Rameses II., the oppressor of the Iybriyiym/Hebrews. In the time of the Shophetiym/judges (Shophetiym 1:18) it fell into the possession of the tribe of Yahudah; but it was soon after retaken by the Pelishtiym (2 Shemuel 1:20), who were not finally dispossessed till the time of Alexander the king of Macedonia (4646 – 4658 FCA) the ben of Philip II.

 

Shimshon/Samson went down to this place from Timnah/Timnath, and slew thirty men and took their spoil.

 

The nebiyiym/prophets foretold its destruction (Yirmiyah: 25:20; 47:5, 7). It became a noted place in the “Middle Ages”, having been the scene of many a bloody battle between the Saracens and the Crusaders. It was besieged and taken by Richard the Lion-hearted, and "within its walls and towers now standing he held his court."


Page 164

Among the Tell Amarna tablets (see page 223) are found letters or official dispatches from Yadaya, "captain of horse and dust of the king's feet," to the "great king" of Egypt, dated from Ascalon. It is now called 'Askalan.

From Easton`s Scriptural Dictionary edited to remove blasphemous names, words, and titles and give a more Iybriy/Hebrew prospective:

 

6) Topics: Ga'za/Azzah

 

Text:  called also Azzah, which is its Iybriy/Hebrew name (Dabariym/Deut. 2:23; 1 Melekiym/1Kings 4:24; Yirmiyah/Jer. 25:20) strong, a city on the Gadol Yam/Great Sea/Mediterranean shore, remarkable for its early importance as the chief centre of a great commercial traffic with Egypt/Mitsrayim. It is one of the oldest cities of the world (B’reshiyth/Gen. 10: 19; Yahshua/Josh. 15:47). Its earliest inhabitants were the Auuiym/Avviym`s/Avim`s, who were conquered and displaced by the Kaphtoriym`s (Dabariym: 2:23; Yahshua: 13:2, 3), a Pelishtiy/Philistine tribe. In the division of the land it fell to the lot of Yahudah (Yahshua: 15:47; Shophetiym/Judg. 1:18). It was the southernmost of the five great Pelishtiym cities, which gave each a golden emerod as a trespass offering unto YaHVeH (1 Shemuel/1 Sam. 6:17). Its gates were carried away by Shimshon (Shophetiym: 16:1-3). Here he was afterwards a prisoner, and "did grind in the prison house." Here he also pulled down the temple of Dagon, and slew "all the lords of the Pelishtiy," himself also perishing in the ruin (Shophetiym: 16:21-30). The nebiyiym/prophets denounce the judgments of Elohiym against it (Yirmiyah: 25:20; 47:5; Amos: 1:6, 7; Zephanyah: 2:4). It is referred to in Acts 8:26. Philip is here told to take the road from Yahvshalam/Jerusalem to Azzah/Gaza (about 6 miles south-west of Yahvshalam), "which is desert", i.e., the "desert road," probably by Chebron/Hebron, through the desert hills of Southern Yahudea/Judea (See SHIMSHON/SAMSON). It is noticed on monuments as early as 3380 FCA/1600 BCE. Its small port is now called el-Mineh.

 

7) Topics: Ek'ron/Eq`ron

 

Text:  firm-rooted, the most northerly of the five towns belonging to the lords of the Pelishtiym/Philistines, about 11 miles north of Gath. It was assigned to Yahudah/Judah (Yahshua/Josh. 13: 3), and afterwards to Dan (19:43), but came again into the full possession of the Pelishtiym (1 Shemuel/Sam. 5:10). It was the last place to which the Pelishtiym carried the ark before they sent it back to Yisrael (1 Shemuel: 5:10; 6:1-8).

Page 165

There was here a noted Miqdash/Mikdash/sanctuary of Baal-zebub (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 1: 2, 3, 6, 16). Now the small village Akir. It is mentioned on monuments in BCE  702, when San-che-riyb/Sennacherib set free its king, imprisoned by Yechizkiyah/Hezekiah in Yahvshalam/Jerusalem, according to the Ashshuriy/Assyrian record.

 

8) Topics: Ash'dod

 

Text:  stronghold, a Pelishtiym/Philistine city (Yahshua/Josh. 15:47), about midway between Azzah/Gaza and Yapho/Joppa, and 3 miles from the Gadol Yam/Great Sea/Mediterranean. It was one of the chief seats of the worship of Dagon (1 Shemuel/Sam. 5:5). It belonged to the tribe of Yahudah (Yahshua: 15:47), but it never came into their actual possession. It was an important city, as it stood on the highroad from Mitsrayim/Egypt to Pelesheth/Palestine, and hence was strongly fortified (2 Dabar Hayamiym /Chr. 26:6; Yashayah/Isa. 20:1). Uzziyah/Uzziah took it, but fifty years after his death it was taken by the Ashshuriym/Assyrians (4299 FCA/758 BCE). According to Sargon's record, it was captured by him in 4269 FCA/711 BCE. The only reference to it in the Messianic Writings/New Testament, where it is called Azotus, is in the account of Philip's return from Azzah (Acts 8:40). It is now called Eshdud.

9) Topics: E'dom

 

Text: 

 

(1.) The name of Esav (q.v.), B’reshiyth/Gen. 25:30, "Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage [Iybriy/Heb. haadom, haadom, i.e., 'the red pottage, the red pottage'] ......Therefore was his name called Edom", i.e., Red.

 

(2.) Idumea (Yeshayah/Isa. 34:5, 6; Yechizkiyah/Ezek. 35:15). "The field of Edom" (B’reshiyth/Gen. 32:3), "the land of Edom" (B’reshiyth 36:16), was mountainous (Obadyah/Obad. 8, 9, 19, 21). It was called the land, or "the mountain of Seir," the rough hills on the east side of the Arabah. It extended from the head of the Gulf of Akabah, the Elanitic gulf, to the foot of the Dead Sea (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 9:26), and contained, among other cities, the rock-hewn Sela (q.v.), generally known by the Greek name Petra (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 14:7).

 

It is a wild and rugged region, traversed by fruitful valleys. Its old capital was Bozrah (Yeshayah 63:1). The early inhabitants of the land were Choriy/Horites. They were destroyed by the Edomiy/Edomites (Dabariym/Deut. 2:12), between whom and the melekiym of Yisrael/Israel and Yahudah/Judah there was frequent war (2 Melekiym/2 Kings 8:20; 2 Dibrey Hayamiym/2 Chr. 28:17). At the time of the Exodus they churlishly refused permission to the Yisraeliym/Israelites to pass through their land (B’midbar/Num. 20:14-21), and ever afterwards maintained an attitude of hostility toward them. They were conquered by David (2 Shemuel/2 Sam. 8:14; comp. 1 Melekiym/1 Kings 9:26), and afterwards by Amazyah/Amaziah (2 Dibrey Hayamiym/2 Chr. 25:11, 12). But they regained again their independence, and in later years, during the decline of the Yudiy/Jewish kingdom (2 Melekiym 16:6; R.V. marg., “Edomiym”/"Edomites"), made war against Yisrael. They took part with the Chaldeans when Nebuchadnezzar captured Yahvshalam/Jerusalem, and afterwards they invaded and held possession of the south of Pelesheth/Palestine as far as Chebron/Hebron.


Page 166

At length, however, Edom fell under the growing Chaldean power (Yirmiyah 27:3, 6). There are many naba/foretellings concerning Edom (Yeshayah 34:5, 6; Yirmiyah 49:7-18; Yechizkiyah 25:13; 35:1-15; Yahvel/Joel 3:19; Amos 1:11; Obadyah; Malakiy/Mal. 1:3, 4) which have been remarkably fulfilled.

 

The present desolate condition of that land is a standing testimony to the motivations of these naba/foretellings. After an existence as a people for above seventeen hundred years, they have utterly disappeared, and their language even is forgotten for ever. In Petra, "where kings kept their court, and where nobles assembled, there no man dwells; it is given by lot to birds, and beasts, and reptiles."

 

The Edomiym were Semites, closely related in blood and in language to the Yisraeliym. They dispossessed the Choriym of Mount Seir; though it is clear, from B’reshiyth 36, that they afterwards intermarried with the conquered population; Edomiy tribes settled also in the south of Yahudah, like the Kenizziym/Kenizzites (B’reshiyth 36:11), to whom Kaleb/Caleb and Othniyel/Othniel belonged (Yahvshua/Josh. 15:17). The southern part of Edom was known as Teyman/Teman.

 

10) Topics: Mo'ab

 

Text:  the seed of the ab/father, or, according to others, the desirable land, the eldest ben of Lot (B’reshiyth 19:37), of incestuous birth.

 

(2.) Used to denote the people of Moab (B’midbar/Num. 22:3-14; Shophetiym/Judg. 3:30; 2 Shemuel 8:2; Yirmiyah 48:11, 13).


(3.) The land of Moab (Yirmiyah 48:24), called also the "country of Moab" (Ruth 1:2, 6; 2:6), on the east of Yarden/Jordan and the Muth Yam/Dead Sea, and south of the Arnon (B’midbar 21:13, 26). In a wider sense it included the whole region that had been occupied by the Emoriym/Amorites. It bears the modern name of Kerak. In the Plains of Moab, opposite Yeriycho/Jericho (B’midbar 22:1; 26:63; Yahshua 13:32), the children of Yisrael had their last encampment before they entered the land of Kena`an/Canaan. It was at that time in the possession of the Emoriym (B’midbar 21:22).

 

"Mosheh/Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah," and "died there in the land of Moab, according to the Word of YaHVeH" (Dabariym 34:5, 6). "Surely if we had nothing else to interest us in the land of Moab, the fact that it was from the top of Pisgah, its noblest height, this mightiest of the nebiyiym/foretellers looked out with eye undimmed upon the Promised Land; that it was here on Nebo, its loftiest mountain, that he died his solitary death; that it was here, in the valley over against Beth-peor, he found his mysterious sepulchre, we have enough to enshrine the memory in our hearts."

11) Topics: Am’monite/Am’moniy  

 

Text:  the usual name of the descendants of Ammon, the ben of Lot (B’reshiyth 19:38). From the very beginning (Dabariym 2: 16-20) of their history till they are lost sight of (Shophetiym 5:2), this tribe is closely associated with the Moabites/Moabiym (Shophetiym: 10:11; 2 Dibrey Hayamiym/2 Chr. 20:1; Zephanyah 2:8). Both of these tribes hired Balaam to curse Yisrael (Dabariym: 23:4).

 

The Ammonites/Ammoniym was probably more of a predatory tribe, moving from place to place, while the Moabiym were more settled. They inhabited the country east of the Yordan/Yarden and north of Moab and the Dead Sea, from which they had expelled the Zamzummims/Zamzomiym or Zuzims (Dabariym 2:20; B’reshiyth 14:5). They are known as the Beni-ammi/Benammiy (B’reshiyth 19:38), Ammi or Ammon being worshiped as their chief god/idol. They were of Semitic origin, and closely related to the Hebrews/Iybriyiym in blood and language.

 

They showed no kindness to the Israelites/Yisraeliym when passing through their territory, and therefore they were prohibited from "entering the assembly of YaHVeH to the tenth generation" (Dabariym 23:3). They afterwards became hostile to Yisrael (Shophetiym 3:13). Yephthah/Yiphtach waged war against them, and "took twenty cities with a very great slaughter" (Shophetiym 11:33).

 

They were again signally defeated by Saul/Shaul (1 Shemuel 11:11). David also defeated them and their allies the Syrians/Aram (2 Shemuel 10:6-14), and took their chief city, Rabbah, with much spoil (2 Shemuel 10: 14; 12:26-31). The subsequent events of their history are noted in 2 Dibrey Hayamiym/2 Chr. 20:25; 26:8; Yirmiyah 49:1; Yechizkiyah 25:3, 6.

 

One of Solomon's/Shelomoh’s wives was Naamah, an Ammoniy. She was the mother of Rehoboam Rechabam/Rekabam (1 Melekiym 14:31; 2 Dibrey Hayamiym: 12:13). The nebiyiym predicted fearful judgments against the Ammoniym because of their hostility to Yisrael (Zephanyah 2:8; Yirmiyah 49:1-6; Yechizkiyah 25:1-5, 10; Amos: 1:13-15). The national idol worshipped by this people was Molech/Molek or Milcom/Malkam/Milkom, at whose altar they offered human sacrifices (1 Melekiym 11:5, 7). The high places built for this idol by Shelomo, at the instigation of his Ammoniym wives, were not destroyed till the time of Yosiah/Yoshiyah (2 Melekiym 23:13).

 12) Topics: Tyre/Zor

 

Text:  a rock, now es-Sur; an ancient Phoenician city, about 23 miles, in a direct line, north of Ma`anah/Acre, and 20 south of Ziydon/Sidon. Sidon was the oldest Phoenician city, but Zor/Tyre had a longer and more illustrious history. The commerce of the whole world was gathered into the warehouses of Tyre." Tyrian merchants were the first who ventured to navigate the Mediterranean waters; and they founded their colonies on the coasts and neighbouring islands of the AEgean Sea, in Greece, on the northern coast of Africa, at Carthage and other places, in Sicily and Corsica, in Spain at Tartessus, and even beyond the pillars of Hercules at Gadeira (Cadiz)" (Driver's Yeshayah/Isaiah).

In the time of David a friendly alliance was entered into between the Iybriyiym/Hebrews and the Tyrians, who were long ruled over by their native kings (2 Shemuel 5:11; 1 Melekiym 5:1; 2 Dibrey Hayamiym/2 Chr. 2:3).

 

Tyre consisted of two distinct parts, a rocky fortress on the mainland, called "Old Zor/Tyre," and the city, built on a small, rocky island about half-a-mile distant from the shore. It was a place of great strength. It was besieged by Shalmaneser, who was assisted by the Phoenicians of the mainland, for five years, and by Nebuchadnezzar (4394 – 4407 FCA/586-573 BCE) for thirteen years, apparently without success. It afterwards fell under the power of Alexander the ben of Philip, after a siege of seven months, but continued to maintain much of its commercial importance till the Messianic era. It is referred to in Mattith`Yah /Matt. 11:21 and Ma`asheh/Acts 12:20. In 6273 FCA/1291 CE it was taken by the Saracens, and has remained a desolate ruin ever since.

 

"The purple dye of Tyre had a worldwide celebrity on account of the durability of its beautiful tints, and its manufacture proved a source of abundant wealth to the inhabitants of that city." Both Tyre and Ziydon/Sidon "were crowded with glass-shops, dyeing and weaving establishments; and among their cunning workmen not the least important class were those who were celebrated for the engraving of precious stones" (2 Dibrey Hayamiym/2 Chr. 2:7, 14).

 

The wickedness and idolatry of this city are frequently denounced by the nabiym/prophets, and its final destruction predicted (Yeshayah 23:1; Yirmiyah 25:22; Yechizkiyah 26; 28:1-19; Amos 1:9, 10; Zecharyah 9:2-4).

 

Here a ekklesia/called out assembly was founded soon after the death of Stephen, and Shaul/Paul, on his return from his third missionary journey spent a week in intercourse with the taught ones/limmudiym there (Ma`asheh/Acts 21:4). Here the scene at Miletus was repeated on his leaving them. They all, with their wives and children, accompanied him to the seashore. The sea-voyage of the emissary/apostle terminated at Ptolemais, about 38 miles from Zor/Tyre. Thence he proceeded to Caesarea (Ma`asheh/Acts 21:5-8).


Page 169

"It is noticed on monuments as early as 3480 FCA/1500 BCE, and claiming, according to Herodotus, to have been founded about 2293 FCA/2700 BCE. It had two ports still existing, and was of commercial importance in all ages, with colonies at Carthage (about 4130 FCA/850 BCE) and all over the Mediterranean. It was often attacked by Mitsrayim/Egypt and Ashshur/Assyria, and taken by Alexander the king of Grecian Empire after a terrible siege in 4650 FCA/332 BCE. It is now a town of 3,000 inhabitants, with ancient tombs and a ruined cathedral. A short Phoenician text of the fourth century BCE (around 4580 FCA) is the only monument yet recovered."

13) Topics: Sidon/Ziy'don

 

Text:  a fishery, a town on the Mediterranean coast, about 25 miles north of Tyre/Zor. It received its name from the "first-born" of Kena`an/Canaan, the grandben of Noach/Noah (B’reshiyth 10:15, 19). It was the first home of the Phoenicians on the coast of Pelesheth/Palestine, and from its extensive commercial relations became a "great" city (Yahvshua 11:8; 19:28).

 

It was the mother city of Zor/Tyre. It lay within the lot of the tribe of Asher, but was never subdued (Shophetiym 1: 31). The Ziydoniym/Zidonians long oppressed Yisrael (Shophetiym 10:12). From the time of David its splendor began to wane, and Zor, its "virgin daughter" (Yeshayah 23:12), rose to its place of pre-eminence.

 

Shelomoh/Solomon entered into a matrimonial alliance with the Ziydoniym/Zidonians, and thus their form of idolatrous worship found a place in the land of Yisrael (1 Melekiym 11:1, 33).

 

This city was famous for its manufactures and arts, as well as for its commerce (1 Melekiym 5:6; 1 Dibrey ha Yamiym/1 Chr. 22:4; Yechizkiyah 27:8). It is frequently referred to by the nebiyiym/prophets (Yeshayah 23:2, 4, 12; Yirmiyah 25:22; 27:3; 47:4; Yechizkiyah 27:8; 28:21, 22; 32:30; Yahvel/Yael/Yoel 3:4).

 

Our Rabbi visited the "coasts" of Zor/Tyre and Ziydon = Sidon (q.v.), Mattith`Yah 15:21; Yahvchanan-Makabiy/Mark 7:24; Ur/Luke 4:26; and from this region many came for to hear Him preaching (Yahvchanan-Makabiy/Mark 3:8; Ur/Luke 6:17).

 

From Ziydon, at which the ship put in after leaving Caesarea, Shaul/Paul finally sailed for Rome (Ma`aseh/Acts 27:3, 4).

14) Isle/Iy – a term including all maritime regions (T`hiyliym/Ps. Lxxii. 10, “The melekiym/kings of Tarshiysh/Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents”).

 

In Yirmiyah: 25:22 it says “and the melekiym of the Iyiym which are beyond the yam/sea,” because the verse is saying beyond the yam/sea I have to believe it is talking about beyond the Mediterranean Sea. I believe it would be speaking about towards the west, the isles in the Atlantic Ocean.

Text:  low ground.

 

(1.) A ben/son of Ramah/Raamah (B’reshiyth 10:7). His descendants are mentioned in Yeshayah 21:13, and Yechizkiyah 27:15. They probably settled among the beniym/sons of Kush/Cush, on the north-west coast of the Parsiy/Persian Gulf.

 

(2.) A ben of Yokshan, Abraham's ben by Keturah (1 Dibrey ha Yamiym/1 Chr. 1:32). His descendants settled on the Arammiy/Syrian borders about the territory of Edom. They probably led a pastoral life.

 

16) Topics: Te'ma/Tey’ma

 

Text:  south; desert, one of the benniym/sons of Yishmael/Ishmael, and father of a tribe so called (B’reshiyth 25:15; 1 Dibrey ha Yamiym /1 Chr. 1:30; Yob 6:19; Yeshayah 21:14; Yirmiyah 25:23) which settled at a place to which he gave his name, some 250 miles south-east of Edom, on the route between Dammesek/Damascus and Mecca, in the northern part of the Arabiy/Arabian peninsula, toward the Arammiy/Syrian desert; the modern Teyma'.

19) Topics: Ara'bia/Arab

 

Text:  arid, an extensive region in the south-west of Asia. It is bounded on the west by the Isthmus of Suez and the Red Sea, on the south by the Indian Ocean, and on the east by the Persian Gulf and the Euphrates. It extends far into the north in barren deserts, meeting those of Syria and Mesopotamia. It is one of the few countries of the world from which the original inhabitants have never been expelled. It was anciently divided into three parts:,

 

(1.) Arabia Felix (Happy Arabia), so called from its fertility. It embraced a large portion of the country now known by the name of Arabia. The Arabs call it Yemen. It lies between the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf.

 

(2.) Arabia Deserta, the el-Badieh or "Great Wilderness" of the Arabs. From this name is derived that which is usually given to the nomadic tribes which wander over this region, the "Bedaween," or, more generally, "Bedouin,"


Page 172

(3.) Arabia Petraea, i.e., the Rocky Arabia, so called from its rocky mountains and stony plains. It comprehended all the north-west portion of the country, and is much better known to travelers than any other portion. This country is, however, divided by modern geographers into

 

(1.) Arabia Proper, or the Arabian Peninsula;

 

(2.) Northern Arabia, or the Arabian Desert; and

 

(3.) Western Arabia, which includes the peninsula of Sinai and the Desert of Petra, originally inhabited by the Choriy/Horites (B’reshiyth/Gen. 14:6, etc.), but in later times by the descendants of Esav, and known as the Land of Edom or Idumea, also as the Desert of Seir/Seiyr or Mount Seiyr.

 

The whole land appears (B’reshiyth 10) to have been inhabited by a variety of tribes of different lineage, Yishmaeliym/Ishmaelites, Arabiym/Arabians, Edomiym/Idumeans, Choriym/Horites, and Edomites; but at length becoming amalgamated, they came to be known by the general designation of Arabs. The modern nation of Arabs is predominantly Yishmaeliy/Ishmaelite. Their language is the most developed and the richest of all the Semitic languages, and is of great value to the student of Iybriy/Hebrew.

 

The Yisraeliym/Israelites wandered for forty years in Arabia. In the days of Shelomoh/Solomon, and subsequently, commercial intercourse was to a considerable extent kept up with this country (1 Melekiym/1 Kings 10:15; 2 Dibrey ha Yamiym/2 Chr. 9:14; 17:11). Arabiym/Arabians were present in Yahvshalam/Jerusalem at Chag Shabua/Pentecost (Ma`aseh/Acts 2:11). Shaul/Paul retired for a season into Arabia after his conversion (Galatiyiym/Gal. 1:17). This country is frequently referred to by the nebiyiym/prophets (Yeshayah/Isa. 21:11; 42:11; Yirmiyah/Jer. 25:24, etc.)

20) And all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert,

 

Mingled people – not in the same sense as v. 20; the motley crowd, so called in contempt (cf. ch. xlix. 28, 31; l. 37). By a different pointing it might be translated, the Arabs; but the repetition of the name is not likely. Blaney thinks there were two divisions of what we call Arabia, the West (Araba) and the East, - the West included Arabia Petrea and the parts on the sea bordering on Mitsrayim/Egypt – the land of  Kush/Cush; the East, Arabia Felix and Deserta. The latter are ‘the mixed race’ inhabiting the desert.

22) Topics: E'lam/Eylam/Olam

 

Text:  highland, the ben of Shem (B’reshiyth/Gen. 10:22), and the name of the country inhabited by his descendants (B’reshiyth 14:1, 9; Yeshayah/Isa. 11:11; 21:2, etc.) lying to the east of Babylonia, and extending to the shore of the Mediterranean, a distance in a direct line of about 1,000 miles. The name Elam is an Ashshuriy/Assyrian word meaning "high." "The inhabitants of Elam, or 'the Highlands,' to the east of Babylon, were called Elamiym/Elamites. They were divided into several branches, speaking different dialects of the same agglutinative language. The race to which they belonged was brachycephalic, or short-headed, like the pre-Semitic Sumerians of Babylonia.

 

"The earliest Elamite kingdom seems to have been that of Anzan, the exact site of which is uncertain; but in the time of Abraham, Shushan or Susa appears to have already become the capital of the country. Babylonia was frequently invaded by the Elamite kings, who at times asserted their supremacy over it (as in the case of Ched-or-la-o-mer, the Kudur-Lagamar, or 'servant of the goddess Lagamar,' of the cuneiform texts). "The later Ashshuriym/Assyrian monarchs made several campaigns against Elam, and finally Assur-bani-pal (about 650 BCE/4491 – 4355 FCA) succeeded in conquering the country, which was ravaged with fire and sword. On the fall of the Ashshuriym/Assyrian Empire, Elam passed into the hands of the Persians" (A.H. Sayce). This country was called by the Greeks Cissia or Susiana.

23) Topics: Mede/Mada`y

 

Text:  (Heb. Madai), a Median or inhabitant of Media (Dan. 11:1). In B’reshiyth/Gen. 10:2 the Iybriy/Hebrew word occurs in the list of the benniym of Yepheth. But probably this is an ethnic and not a personal name, and denotes simply the Medes as descended from Yepheth/Japheth.

26) Topics: She'shach/Sheshak

 

Text:  (Yirmiyah/Jer. 25:26), supposed to be equivalent to Babel (Babylon), according to a secret (cabalistic) mode of writing among the Yudiym/Jews of unknown antiquity, which consisted in substituting the last letter of the Iybriy/Hebrew alphabet for the first, the last but one for the second, and so on. Thus the letters sh, sh, ch become b, b, l i.e., Babel. This is supposed to be confirmed by a reference to Yirmiyah 51:41, where She’shach and Babylon are in parallel clauses. There seems to be no reason to doubt that Babylon is here intended by this name. (See Streane's Jeremiah, l.c.)

 

From JAMIESON/FAUSSET/BROWN A COMMENTARY CRITICAL, EXPERIMENTAL, AND PRACTICAL VOLUME II PART II PAGE 87:

 

Sheshach – Babylon; as the parallelism in ch. li 41 proves. In the Cabalistic system (called Athbash; the first Iybriy/Hebrew letter in the alphabet being expressed by the last) Sheshach would exactly answer to Babel. Yirmiyah/Jeremiah might have used this system (as perhaps in ch. li. 41) for concealment at the time of this prediction, in the fourth year of Yahvyakiym/Jehoiakim, while Nebuchadnezzar was before Yahvshalam/Jerusalem. In ch. li. 41 there can be no concealment, as Babylon is expressly mentioned. Michaelis more simply explains the term ‘brazen-gated’ (cf. Yeshayah/Isa. Xlv. 2): others, from the Persian language, ‘the house of a prince.’ Rather it comes from the Babylonian goddess Shach, by reduplication of the first letter; from her Misael was named Meshach by the Babylonians. The term Shace was applied to a festival at Babylon, alluded to in ch. li. 39, 57; Yeshayah/Isa. Xxi. 5. It was during this feast that Cyrus took Babylon (Herodotus, 1). Thus Yirmiyah mystically denotes the time of its capture by this term (Glassius).

 

Yirmiyah: 25:27:  That’s why you shall say to them, this said YaHVeH of hosts, the Elohiym of Yisrael; Drink you all, and be drunken, and spue, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.

Yirmiyah: 25:28:  And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then shall you say to them, this said YaHVeH of hosts; you all shall certainly drink.

Yirmiyah: 25:29:  For, look, I begin to bring evil on the city, which is called by MY name, and should you all be entirely unpunished? You all shall not be unpunished: for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, said YaHVeH of hosts.


Page 175

Comment:

Notice in verse 29 YaHVeH is going to punish the nations just for the fact that they come to the city that is called by HIS name. They have no fear or reverence for YaHVeH, even though the House of Yudah/modern “Jewish” state was and is now disobeying YaHVeH, HE will not excuse their insolent attitude.

 

Yirmiyah: 25:30:  Therefore naba/foretell you against them all these words, and say to them, YaHVeH shall roar from on high, and utter HIS voice from HIS Kodesh habitation; HE shall mightily roar upon HIS habitation; HE shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.

 

{1Cornthians: 15:52: In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump/shophar: for the shophar shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

 

1Thessolonians: 4:16: For the Rabbi Himself shall descend from shameh with a shout, with the voice of the arch-malak, and with the trump/shophar of YaHVeH: and the dead in Messiyah shall rise first:

 

Revelation/Raz Galah/Secrets Revealed: 10:7: but in the days of the voice of the seventh malak, when He shall begin to sound, the mystery of YaHVeH should be finished, as HE has declared to HIS servants the nabiym.}

Comment:

 

This falls around 4371 FCA (four thousand three hundred seventy one years from the creation of Adam). You also need to notice that the sequence of chapters in the KJV is out of order, why, I don’t know? But chapter 26 should come before chapter 25; notice chapter 26 is in Yahvyakiym`s first year and chapter 25 is in his Yahvyakiym`s fourth year.
