Wrath of God
Why Is He Angry?…
As I look back now upon this journey through the Towrah, Naby’, wa Mizmowr, I find that the insights, and the words that led to them, are inseparable – a tapestry of translation and commentary. One without the other is akin to viewing a scene from the wrong perspective, squinting with the light in our eyes. It’s akin to entering a dark room with someone pointing a flashlight at us or looking down and hoping to understand the stars in the sky.
Sometimes the perspective is intuitive. All stories have an opening and concluding act, so we have to begin with the Towrah, with Creation and the Covenant, and continue through the Prophets if we want to understand God’s story. But at other times, to appreciate what is going to unfold in our future, our best option is to carefully consider the past. In other words, what Yahowah has said and done is indicative of what He will say and do.
In every situation, knowledge is good, but understanding is vastly superior. We may know, for example, that God is angry, but not understand why. There is no disputing that ‘aph conveys anger – so it has been readily discernable by anyone who has bothered to read this prophecy that God is extraordinarily displeased by what He has witnessed.
Yet the tendency of individuals to believe that religions are good, that they are Godly, and that they save souls precludes the preponderance of people from being able to ascertain the reason for His wrath. They fail to make 207the connection between shepherd and pastor. They don’t associate these adversarial prophets with the likes of Paul or Muhammad. They read “priests” and don’t equate them with Roman Catholicism. And yet, there is no other viable option. There are no Jewish priests today, and there haven’t been any for nearly two thousand years. Rabbinic Judaism is the only form of the religion to survive. So, while Yahowah has been explicit, no one dared accept the point He was making.
Now to be fair, I did not come to this understanding in a vacuum. I discovered it by closely examining and carefully considering what Yahowah inspired His prophets to write. It is something almost anyone could have done. But they did not. And that is the point of Yahowah’s prophetic announcement.
And while there are many thousands of people who know much more than I do, few if any understand the nature and purpose of God better. And just as existing in four dimensions is infinitely superior to being stuck in the ordinary flow of time, understanding is infinitely more enriching and empowering than knowledge.
Eager to return to Yasha’yah so that we might more fully appreciate Yahowah’s disdain for religion and politics, I was somewhat hesitant to continue chasing tsemach further into the prophets. That was especially true because I had already translated the 23rd chapter of Yirma’yah / Jeremiah, which is the next place tsemach appears. That rendering is provided in the first volumes of An Introduction to God and Coming Home.
Then after reading Yahowah’s declaration with fresh eyes, it became instantly obvious that the entire chapter served to reinforce the purpose of this book, which is to use Yahowah’s testimony to expose and condemn religion and politics so that more people might choose to walk away 208from them and accept the Covenant. It is the most important message we can convey at this time.
With that introduction, with eyes open to considering what God is going to set before us and with ears attuned to what He has said thus far, here is the next prophetic presentation of tsemach. Rest assured, there is much more to learn.
It is the greatest irony in human history. Man promotes religion as the means to please God, and yet God hates religion. While Yahowah is unrelenting in this regard, He is never as direct or blunt as He is in Yirma’yah. His warning begins with “howy – woe,” a word we do not want to be directed at us. And we can avoid that easily enough just by forsaking religion.
“‘Woe (howy – alas, consider this a warning, garnering your undivided attention) to the shepherds (ra’ah – to those who tend to, care for, feed, and shear the flock) who have led astray and destroyed, causing irreparable damage (‘abad – who have ruined by misleading others, causing them to die, perishing, such that they cease to exist, and whose actions have caused things of value to be squandered and wasted (piel participle – a verbal adjective whereby the object suffers the effect of being misled)), because (wa) they have scattered (puwts – they have chaotically displaced, attacking, dashing, and dispersing (hifil participle – a verbal adjective whereby the subject, the bad shepherds, have caused the object, the misled sheep, to go astray, becoming like their evil leaders in the process)) the flock (‘ets ts’on – the sheep) from My shepherding and nurturing (mari’yth ‘any – of My guidance, leadership, protection, and company; from my – to consider the purpose of ra’ah – pasturing, grazing, guiding, feeding, associating with, befriending, teaching, tending to, and shepherding a flock of sheep),’ prophetically declares (na’um – announces and conveys the message with authority, reveals, foretells, and predicts) 209Yahowah (YaHoWaH – an accurate presentation of the name of ‘elowah – God as guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence).” (Yirma’yah / Yah Teaches and Guides / Jeremiah 23:1)
Since the role of a shepherd is to lead and protect the sheep, when projected onto human beings, we find that the role has been misappropriated by religious and political leaders. And here, as it is throughout the Towrah and Prophets, God is warning His people that their rabbis and politicians have led them astray, causing irreparable harm.
The English word “pastor” is from the Latin pastor, which means “shepherd.” It in turn was derived from pascere, which is a “herdsman who feeds sheep.” Therefore, the religious term, pastor, is an especially accurate translation of ra’ah in this context. And that’s really bad news for those who are religious, particularly clerics.
In this case, Yahowah is stating unequivocally that He is going to hold them accountable for misleading His sheep. Pastors and priests will be judged for having done irreparable harm to God’s flock. Clerics the world over will be punished for having scattered God’s people, inciting them to believe all manner of religious myths.
By using na’um | to declare in advance of it occurring, we know that God’s pronouncement against Israel’s shepherds is addressing future generations. By using ‘abad | to mislead and mari’yth ‘any | My shepherding, the crime the political and religious Jews have committed is to lead their brethren away from Yahowah’s company and care. Rabbis in particular have deprived Jews of God’s leadership and protection – a crime for which She’owl is prescribed.
In this opening statement, we find the ultimate referendum, that of being shepherded by God or by man. Yahowah presents Himself and His Son as our Shepherds 210and us as their flock. He likes this metaphor because it projects them living with their people, guiding the sheep, leading us to verdant pastures, and protecting those willing to trust Him. It is why the Hebrew word for “God” is written , combining a ram’s head and a shepherd’s staff. And you will even note that the staff is upside down because it isn’t being used as a walking stick or defensive weapon but instead is being deployed to rescue and guide the sheep.
“So consequently (la ken – therefore accordingly, in return, rightfully and assuredly as a result), this is what (koh – focusing our attention on what will follow) Yahowah ( – the pronunciation of YaHoWaH), the God (‘elohym – Mighty One) of Yisra’el (Yisra’el – a compound of ‘ysh – individuals, who sarah – strive and contend with, or engage and endure with, ‘el – God), has to say (‘amar – promises (qal perfect)) in opposition to (‘al – over, above, and against) those acting as shepherds (ha ra’ah – those tending to, feeding, and shear the flock),
‘Those leading, feeding, and shearing (ha ra’ah – the shepherds tending to and guiding, ruling over and herding) My people (‘eth ‘am ‘any – My family), you (‘atem – the many of you), yourselves, have led astray, pushed away, and scattered (puwts – you have chaotically displaced, attacking, dashing, and dispersing, even besieging and separating (hifil perfect – the subject, in this case the rabbis, have caused the object, the misled sheep, to go astray for a period of time, causing them to be like their evil shepherds in the process)) My flock (‘eth ts’on ‘any – My sheep), and (wa) you have consistently driven them away by continually seducing them (nadach hem – you have compelled and enticed them, leading them astray, you have lured and drawn them away, preying upon them, you have exerted enormous pressure and thereby thrust them aside, exiling and banishing them, you have made them outcasts, causing them to be cast 211down (hifil imperfect – the religious leaders have continually seduced and harassed God’s sheep and thereby caused them to become outcasts for a prolonged period of time, just like themselves)).
Therefore (wa – in addition), you have not been concerned about them (lo’ paqad ‘eth hem – you have not taken them into account, attended to them, or considered them (qal perfect)).
So behold (hineh – at this moment, right here and now, pay attention to this, look up, this point is being emphasized), I (‘any), Myself, will hold you accountable and will reckon this against you (paqad ‘al ‘atem – I will consider what you have done and take it into account, I will take inventory of this opposition, retaining a record regarding your accountability, even summon and punish you (qal participle – a descriptive verb which presents an actual time of reckoning against the rabbis)) because of (‘eth) the willful misconduct and unethical nature (roa’ – the harmful effect, the displeasing and injurious result, the corrupting and perverting aspects, and the evil and improper intent; from ra’a’ – the evil and bad, willfully wrong, corrupting, perverting, injurious, and shattering consequences) of your foolish deeds and wanton abuses (ma’alal ‘atem – defiling actions and abusive practices; from ‘alal – ruthless behaviors, malevolent dealings, deceptive practices, foolish acts, and childish tendencies),’ prophetically declares (na’um – announces and conveys the message with authority, reveals, foretells, and predicts) Yahowah (Yahowah – the proper pronunciation of YaHoWaH, our ‘elowah – God as directed in His ToWRaH – teaching regarding His HaYaH – existence and our ShaLoWM – restoration).” (Yirma’yah / Respect and Revere Yah / Jeremiah 23:2)
The way this concluding statement is worded in Hebrew affirms that Yahowah is going to hold religious and political leaders accountable, particularly in Israel, by 212associating that which they have perpetrated on their flock against them. Therefore, the rabbis will be seen as “unethical, corrupt, foolish, abusive, ruthless, deceptive, malevolent, misleading, and seductive outcasts.” Yahowah will “push them away.” So much for the myth that the rabbis are serving God. Actually, they are only serving themselves – and not doing that very well.
While God’s interests outside of Yisra’el are negligible, suffice it to say that the amalgamation of church and state has also “nadach – exerted enormous societal, cultural, economic, militaristic, political, and religious pressure to forcibly impel and seductively seduce” those these institutions have sought to control, effectively “exiling and banishing” billions from God, “thrusting them aside and casting them down.” The Pope even carries a staff as a symbol of his presumptuous authority.
This is Babel | the confounding nature of Babylon, personified, exemplifying the oppressive nature of human institutions. It is indicative of the very things Yahowah wants us to walk away from before we walk to Him.
The simple and indeed obvious truth is that Yahowah chose these people and this place to make Himself known to everyone. Most of what He says to and of Yisra’el is true for all of the rest of us. Yahuwdym and Yisra’el are God’s chosen paradigms. There is one Towrah and one Covenant.
So now that we know that Almighty God is addressing Jewish political and religious leaders and that He is angry with them for having separated His flock from Him, let’s see if we can ascertain any additional insights regarding the timing of this prediction. The discussion continues by telling us that God will gather up and restore the sheep who have been dispersed and misled. Therefore, after every religious and political leader has been removed, Yahowah and Dowd will engage as Shepherds to serve the remnant of their flock; the antithesis of either acting as a Lord.
213“‘Then (wa – and so) I (‘any), Myself, will obtain and gather up (qabats – I will collect, harvest, pick up, engage relationally with, then assemble (piel imperfect – the flock will be put into action by Yahowah with ongoing consequences)) the remnant (‘eth sha’eryth – the rest and remainder of the descendants, even the residue which is left) of My flock (ts’on ‘any – My sheep) from (min – out of) all (kol) of the lands (ha ‘erets – the realms, places, and nations) where (‘asher – in which as a result of the relationship and to show the way home) I have temporarily scattered them (nadach ‘eth hem – I have driven and exiled them for a time, cast and banished them (hifil perfect)) there by name (shem – where their presence is of renown and they have developed a reputation).
But (wa) My desire is to return and restore them at this time (shuwb henah ‘eth henah – with a contingency which must be met, I have decided to gather them up, bring them back, turn them around, and completely renew them (hifil waw perfect (waqatal consecutive) – should they be ready, I will choose to engage at this time in a manner which transforms them, causing them to be more like Me)) upon their pasture, abode, and home (‘al naweh henah – over their beautiful dwelling place and campground, upon their residence and settlement).
And (wa) they will be fruitful and flourish (parah – they will reproduce, branch out, grow, and live abundant lives (qal perfect consecutive – during this time I want them to actually bear fruit)). And (wa) they will increase and become great, living a long and abundant life (rabah – they will be tremendously empowered, their status will be substantially elevated, their lives will be prolonged, they will multiply, and they will grow exponentially (qal perfect consecutive – during this time it is My desire that they become numerous, are actually empowered, and thrive)).’” (Yirma’yah / Yah Raises and Lifts Up / Jeremiah 23:3)
214The return of Yisra’elites to Yisra’el just prior to Yahowah’s homecoming is affirmed throughout the Prophets. And what once seemed impossible, then improbable, is now inevitable. Not only has Yisra’el been reconstituted as a nation, but half of the world’s Jewish population has already returned home.
The remainder will soon be headed that way. Anti-Semitism has grown to intolerable levels in France, England, Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Russia, Greece, Spain, Italy, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iran, Iraq, and indeed in every majority Islamic nation and most orthodox Christian countries, to the point that returning to Yisra’el is the only option. This reality was exasperated by the tsunami of Muslims making landfall in Europe as a result of America’s invasions into the Islamic Middle East. This is the war Yasha’yah predicted (in chapters 17-18) the United States would instigate.
He also revealed that it would conclude with the destruction of Damascus, Syria followed by the capitulation to the Islamic jihadists who made it happen, along with thinning Yisra’el at the waist by forfeiting Samaria, errantly called the “West Bank.” This reversal of the diaspora occurs just in time for a unified Islamic invasion into Yisra’el with the intent of obliterating every last trace of the Chosen People.
Also relevant, on this day, which is Yowm Kipurym (the Day of Reconciliations) in year 6000 Yah (sunset on October 2nd, 2033) Yahowah is going to affirm one of the Towrah’s and Covenant’s greatest promises: causing His people to be fruitful and flourish, becoming great, increasing in every imaginable way, so as to live a long and abundant life.
“‘Then (wa) I will raise up and establish (quwm – I will take a stand on their behalf, and I will confirm and fulfill My promise to confirm and honor (hifil perfect)) 215over them (‘al hem) those who serve as shepherds (ra’ah – those who tend to, nurture, guide, and protect) so that (wa) they will do what is required to nurture, guide, and protect them (ra’ah hem – it is My desire for them to lead, direct, and feed them at this time (qal waqatal perfect)).
And (wa) they shall not be afraid (lo’ yare’ – they shall not be intimidated or terrorized, dread or venerate anyone) ever again (‘owd – any longer).
And they will not be dismayed or discouraged (wa lo’ chathath – they shall not be confused or abused, shattered or falter), nor will they be discounted or disregarded (wa lo’ paqad – and they will not be inventoried as merchandise as a result of not being properly considered or appropriately evaluated),’ prophetically declares (na’um – promises) Yahowah ( – a transliteration of YaHoWaH as instructed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah – existence).” (Yirma’yah / Yah Teaches and Guides / Jeremiah 23:4)
Beginning on Sukah, just five days after His return, Yahowah will reestablish the Kingdom of Dowd, whereby His beloved Son will serve as Shepherd, with the Shaphat / Judges once again working with him to guide the flock. Relying on God, the Covenant’s children will be led to green pastures for His name’s sake. Confusion and fear will be notions of a bygone religious and now forgotten era. God’s people will never be discounted again.
Ra’ah | to shepherd is always a verb in Hebrew and not a noun as it is typically rendered in English. Therefore, the act of ra’ah | shepherding necessitates actively engaging with the sheep to guide, protect, and nurture them.
Doing this job well is something Yahowah values to such a degree that He afforded this distinction to His Son, Dowd. He is the Ra’ah of Yisra’el in addition to being the Melek, Mashyach, and Yatsa’.
216Also interesting, while Dowd will be the lead Shepherd, he will encourage others to assist. In this way, he will be like his Father who prefers to act with us rather than alone.
Our Heavenly Father provides many contrasts for us to consider. In this one, man scatters and defrauds and Yahowah gathers and enriches. Man misleads while God guides.
What little question there may have been as to whether Yahowah was judging the political and religious leadership of Yisra’el 2,700 years ago or in the days prior to His return, is resolved by the concluding line. Between Muslims and Progressives, Catholics and Communists, especially Conspiratorialists, Jews remain the most discounted and abused people on Earth. And as is typically the case with deceivers such as these, they are guilty of the crimes they falsely ascribe to others.
In the way of Moseh | Moses, the worst thing I have ever done prepared me for the best. While a Christian, I was conditioned to read every prophetic reference to Dowd | David as if it applied to “Jesus Christ.” When I stopped doing so, my religion lost its credibility – something faith cannot afford.
Sadly, I fell victim to the absurd notion that God wasn’t bright enough to keep His names straight and that He spoke of “David” when He actually meant to say “Jesus.” But since there were no prophecies that addressed the arrival or role of “Jesus,” how was one to believe he was the most important person in God’s story – even if he existed?
The Christian answer is Replacement Theology. When the “nameless and antiquated old god” anointed “David,” we were told that He was actually christening Jesus. When “the Lord” revealed that “David” was returning with Him, well…what He meant to say was that there would be a 217“Second Coming of Jesus Christ,” which took some faith considering there was no “first coming.” When the “God of the Old Testament” announced that “David” was His Son and He was his Father, and when He proclaimed that a child would be born and a son would be given, we were taught to ignore the name He provided. After all, our new and improved man-god had come to save us from the senile and archaic creator. But then, why were we so entertained by the stories and prophecies of the “Old Testament,” and why were we so desperate to tie them to our guy if the “Old God” couldn’t be trusted?
Since there isn’t a single statement pertaining to Yahowah replacing Yahuwdym with Gowym, or Dowd with Jesus, and thousands which say otherwise, Christians contrived a religion out of making $#!+ up. If it required that God suffer from Alzheimer’s and Dementia, it no longer mattered because they replaced Yahowah with the Lord Jesus Christ. The world’s most popular religion would be nothing more than a shell game of hidden truths and obvious replacements.
Although I had become an agnostic prior to engaging with Yahowah, as there were too many conflicts and conundrums in Christianity to persist as a believer, I remained imprinted by many of the religion’s myths, including the way I misinterpreted prophecies pertaining to Dowd | David such as the one which follows. I initially wrote my introduction to Yahowah’s next statement as if the Shepherd was symbolic of “the Ma’aseyah Yahowsha’ | the Work of Yah is Yahowah Saves.” As a mission statement, it was a bit wordy but nonetheless served as an accurate assessment. But as a name and title, not so much.
Correcting this error in judgment while striving to remain consistent with what Yahowah actually promised is the reason I began rewriting every volume of the Yada Yahowah series some four years ago, when improving the translations and correcting the commentary consumed my 218every waking moment for several years. And now I’m back at it again, since we have learned that Dowd was not only the Messiah and Son of God but also the Zarowa’ | Sacrificial Lamb who fulfilled Pesach and Matsah leading to Bikuwrym and Shabuw’ah.
Simply stated: Dowd is the central character in Yahowah’s story and Jesus Christ by any name did not exist. This problem could not be resolved through a clever application of titles – such as Ma’aseyah | Work of Yahowah Yahowsha’ | Yahowah Saves.
While it was my mistake to clean up, in typical fashion, Yahowah transformed these days into the most enjoyable, enlightening, and productive of my life. So, since it took me the better part of two decades to fully appreciate the role of Father and Son in our redemption, finally accepting Yahowah’s and Dowd’s testimony at face value, I am empathetic, knowing that what you are now reading may be a jolt to your soul. What took me decades to ascertain, you are now confronting within the first hours of your journey.
Since you are entitled to know, I gradually came to the realization that Yahowah really was speaking about Dowd | David as I translated and retranslated, contemplated and came to more fully appreciate, the first prophecy I encountered twenty-two years ago: Shamuw’el / 2 Samuel 7. Each time through its words, I moved closer to the truth, to Yahowah’s and Dowd’s perspective and intent. And then, while composing Observations, it was as if a ton of religious rubble was finally being tossed aside as I came to realize that Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9 was addressing Dowd, not my stand-in, the Ma’aseyah Yahowsha’. In that this was my former religion’s most important prophecy, it was cathartic to recognize that Dowd’s name was inscribed in the midst of it for a simple reason – it was all about him.
219From there, I began rewriting the first two volumes of Coming Home, motivated to present the Son of God and the Messiah correctly. For Yahuwdym | Jews, this was a watershed moment, because it means that they were correct when they realized that the misnomer “Jesus” could not have been the Messiah. It also meant that the rabbis were wrong because the returning Mashyach is not only known, he is Yahowah’s Ben | Son, the Melek | King and Ra’ah | Shepherd who is the Tsemach | Branch. All of this and more became irrefutable when translating the first 25 Mizmowr / Psalms which serve as the basis for the initial two volumes of Coming Home.
It was a cause for celebration because I was now closer to the truth than anyone had been in two thousand years. And yet, even then, I missed the most important revelation in human history when it was right before my eyes. Just as there was no Jesus Christ, there was no Ma’aseyah Yahowsha’ either. The reason the Christian New Testament avoids attributing the fulfillment of Pesach, Matsah, Bikuwrym, and Shabuw’ah to Jesus is because their misnomer had nothing to do with them. By contrast, the reason Dowd speaks of fulfilling them in first person is because he did. The reason Dowd’s name and his titles are mentioned in every prophecy regarding the fulfillment of the Mow’edym, is because Father and Son would support one another throughout this process.
My awakening to what is now obvious, indeed irrefutable, came when translating Mizmowr 26 through 30 for the 3rd volume of Coming Home appropriately entitled: Dowd | Beloved. When the prophet explained that this was his decision, one Yahowah supported, I found myself asking why Father and Son decided to fulfill the seven Miqra’ey together. Why, for the love of God, would anyone volunteer to suffer as the Pesach ‘Ayil and then endure a trip to She’owl | Hell during Matsah – especially 220knowing that Yahuwdym would deny and denigrate him while Gowym would rob him of his sacrifice and acclaim?
The answer is that he was the foremost expert on the Towrah – the very book the religious scholars deny existed at the time. Dowd knew that Moseh had been the perfect paradigm, a man of exemplary intelligence and character, and that he had performed the most magnanimous and selfless acts in the process of liberating his people. Nonetheless, the Children of Yisra’el treated Moseh as if he had leprosy, as if he had dragged them into slavery as opposed to freedom. The Yisra’elites were reprehensible ingrates – and nothing had changed over the ensuing centuries.
Therefore, Dowd, knowing that he, unlike Moseh, had made his share of lamentable mistakes, realized that for him to prevail as the eternal King of Yisra’el something would have to change. And the most effective way for him to transform his reputation and his people’s attitudes would be to save them from themselves. He wouldn’t just volunteer to fulfill Pesach and Matsah, he would insist upon it – making a case for doing so that his Father would appreciate and accept. It would be two days of hell, one on Earth being tortured by the Romans and one in She’owl to deposit our guilt. But as a result, at least for those saved by his sacrifice, he would enjoy an eternity of gratitude and respect.
That is not only the truth, it is the whole truth so help me God. Dowd would live three lives. While the outcomes and events would differ, in each he would continue to be the Son of God, His Firstborn, the Messiah and King – the Savior of his people in all three lives.
This being the truth, the thirty volumes I had just finished editing to present Dowd as the Messiah and Son of God, who was returning on Kipurym in year 6000 Yah, would need to be rewritten to accurately reflect his service 221on behalf of his people during the 80th Yowbel when he fulfilled Pesach, Matsah, Bikuwrym, and Shabuw’ah. But what an honor, to not only have found the greatest treasure in human history but, also, to be afforded the privilege of sharing it for the enlightenment of God’s people – doing so with Yahowah’s overt acknowledgment and support.
My reprieve between this edit and that one had been as short as it had been tumultuous. It began trying to make sense of Daniel. It was immediately obvious that the first six chapters were neither relevant nor right and were likely added centuries later by a religious and political zealot. And while I became the first to identify Gabry’el and Myka’el, and then make sense of their prophetic portrayals, the introductions attributed to Dany’el remained problematic because they were clearly erroneous.
Then after composing a thorough analysis of chapters 7 through 12 of Daniel in the Beast volume of Babel, I jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire. I discovered that Ezekiel was inspired by the Whore of Babylon and served as Satan’s playbook and autobiography. From beginning to end, it was repulsive, fixated on tormenting and eradicating Jews. My condemnation of Ezekiel would comprise the next two volumes of Babel – Abominable and Venomous.
Needing a break from what had been my third foray into Hell in defense of God’s people, including writing Prophet of Doom and Questioning Paul, I decided to write a 3rd volume of Coming Home. And I was just six chapters into the labor of love when I discovered that Dowd had convinced Yahowah that he should be allowed to fulfill the Miqra’ey – and God agreed.
This meant that not only was there no Jesus Christ, but there was also no room for a Ma’aseyah Yahowsha’ in God’s story either. The reason neither was mentioned by the prophets is that neither existed.
222The entire New Testament was nothing but a fairytale, fables that were no more credible than those found in the Odyssey or the mythology attributed to Dionysus. The reason that there was nothing spoken, written, and retained in Hebrew, like what is found in the books Yahowah inspired, is because God had nothing to do with any of its authors. There were no three wise men or twelve disciples, and John the Baptist was a literary device.
The reason that God had nothing to say at the time the Mow’edym were fulfilled during the 80th Yowbel is because there were no longer any prophets to speak through and those who had been available centuries earlier had already presented the entire story – writing all we needed to know regarding Dowd’s fulfillment of Pesach and Matsah leading to Bikuwrym and Shabuw’ah. Having said it all, Dowd was as Yasha’yah foretold – silent.
But I could not remain silent. This needed to be known – and now! So, in January of 2023, I began all over again, retranslating and rewriting Dowd more completely and accurately into God’s unfolding story of the redemption of Yisra’el. With 30 volumes already on the shelf at YadaYah.com, more became less important than being right.
And somewhere along the line, between this and the previous edits of Yada Yahowah, it became apparent that while Moseh and Dowd play the starring roles among Yahowah’s cast of amazing characters, there would be another – one everyone heretofore had missed arriving during the last days. Solomon would call him the Nakry | Observant Foreigner, while Yasha’yah would recognize him as the Choter | Secondary Branch and Sucker from the Original Rootstock. The great prophet would also refer to him as the Qowl | Voice calling out, as an ‘Edah | Witness, and as a Basar | Herald. He would even be billed as the third Zarowa’ | One Sowing the Seeds which would take root and grow, producing a robust harvest. Yahowah would 223address him by his nom de plume – Yada’ | Knows. He was called during Taruw’ah and would always be associated with the mission of the first of the three yet unfulfilled Miqra’ey.
And while he is a luminary on the path home, he serves Yahowah and Yahuwdym by serving Dowd. And in that regard, the Messiah and Son of God will soon return. His arrival on Yowm Kipurym in the 120th Yowbel year will be to provide reconciliation …
“‘Now pay attention (hineh – behold, look now right here and see) to the days (yowmym – the time) which will have come for inclusion (bow’ – which will have arrived in a moment in time to pursue a return and a harvest (qal participle – a genuine verbal adjective)),’ prophetically declares (na’um – reveals long before it occurs) Yahowah (Yahowah – as directed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah – existence), ‘when (wa – in addition) I will have enabled restoration through Dowd by raising up and establishing with Dowd (quwm la Dowd – I will have made it possible for Dowd to fulfill the promise to restore (hifil perfect first-person singular – Yah will enable Dowd to fulfill and restore by taking a stand)) the correct and proper (tsadyq – the rightful and righteous, the just and vindicating, the justified, right, and acquitting) means to life and growth through a branch which will sprout, blossom, and grow (tsemach – stem from which bears new life and a productive harvest).
And so (wa), he has offered counsel about the reign of the king after having pondered the implications (malak melek – he will have provided authorized advice to consider pursuant to his sovereignty (qal perfect)) because (wa) he obtained the insights needed to understand, the skill to succeed, and the capacity to instruct (shakal – he developed the proper focus and the knowledge from sound instruction and teaching, the intellectual capacity, and cerebral acumen to prudently prosper by offering that 224which is proper (hifil waqatal perfect – enabling ongoing insights subject to volition)).
Then (wa) he will be motivated to act and engage in (wa ‘asah – he will perform, work at, and profit from (qal waqatal perfect)) the way to exercise good judgment regarding the means to fairly resolve disputes (mishpat – the basis upon which sound decisions are made and judgment is executed to achieve justice; from my – to ponder the implications of shaphat – making thoughtful decisions regarding what is just, appropriate, logical, and fair) and correctly providing vindication (wa tsadaqah – by being upright, righteous, just, proper, moral, and acquitting) in the Land (ba ha ‘erets – within the material realm and on Earth).’” (Yirma’yah / Respect and Revere Yah / Jeremiah 23:5)
It is hard to overstate the relevance of this prophecy – especially within the context of Dowd’s three lives and what he and Yahowah have accomplished together. The “days which would arrive for inclusion, this time of restoration and return” of which “Yahowah prophetically spoke” would play out over Pesach, Matsah, Bikuwrym, and Shabuw’ah in year 4000 Yah, 700 years after this was announced. God would enable His Son, “Dowd,” to “take a stand which would restore” his people.
And while Dowd is clearly the subject of this prophecy, there is a role to be played by the Choter | Secondary Branch to explain it to God’s people. He is the one pleading with Yahuwdym to hineh | pay attention. He knows that yowmym | the days are bow’ | upon us for inclusion. It is now or never.
He is the first to correctly convey that Yahowah has quwm | taken a stand to enable restoration through Dowd | His Beloved. For the first time in a long time, God’s people are able to hineh | behold the tsadyq | correct and proper path to vindication. A tsemach | stem has sprouted, a 225Choter has arrived, showing the way to tsemach | blossom and grow as part of the harvest of new life – all of which is available because of what the Tsemach | Branch Dowd has achieved.
And it is this tsemach | secondary branch, this new shoot, who is malak | offering considered counsel about the melek | reign of the King. In fact, he serves as his Herald.
This is because, with the Seven Spirits of Yahowah aiding him, he shakal | he has obtained the insights needed to understand, the skill to succeed, and the capacity to instruct. By being Towrah-observant and a student of the prophets, shakal | he has developed the proper focus while accumulating considerable knowledge from sound instruction. With Yahowah’s constant inspiration, he has the shakal | intellectual capacity and cerebral acumen to prudently discern the truth about who Yahowah is, what He is offering, and what He expects from us in return.
Having been led to the greatest discovery in human history, he is now ‘asah | motivated to engage on behalf of God’s people, showing them the mishpat | means to exercise good judgment regarding the means to resolve the disputes which have long separated Yahowah from Yisra’el. The result is that upon Dowd’s return there will be tsadaqah | righteousness and vindication ba ha ‘erets | in the Land.
More than anyone who has ever lived, Dowd, through his Mizmowr and Mashal, revealed that “he had pondered the implications and then provided counsel pursuant to his future reign as king.” And it is by closely examining and carefully considering what he wrote 3,000 years ago that we have deduced a more complete and accurate assessment of his contributions to our redemption and reconciliation.
Dowd “obtained the insights he needed to understand” by listening to Yahowah and reading the Towrah. As a result, he came to rely upon his Father and was “afforded 226the ability to succeed and the capacity to instruct.” Simply said, he told us what he was going to do and then he did it. And all the while, he explained his rationale and resulting benefits.
The Messiah was “motivated and eager to act” because he was committed “to do what was required to justifiably resolve the disputes” separating Yahuwdym from Yahowah. For those “exercising good judgment regarding this resolution” there would “be vindication.”
With Yahowah’s support, Dowd would become our Savior.
Yahowah never works alone. It isn’t in His nature and would be contrary to His purpose. He created us because He wanted to enjoy a working relationship with humankind.
The universe – comprising six dimensions – is enormous. There is a lot to experience, oversee, and share. Then beyond the Material Realm is the Spiritual Realm – extending into eternity in the 7th dimension. So, there is a lot for us to see and enjoy, all with Dowd leading the parade as God’s favorite Son.
Therefore, Yahowah is sharing His Son’s crowning achievement – the most joyous moment since creation. As we approach eternity with the same mindset and resolve, pursuing what is right by doing what is correct, we will benefit from what they accomplished by fulfilling the Mow’edym.
In this prophecy, and all others like it, including Yasha’yah | Isaiah 9 and Shamuw’el | 2 Samuel 7, there are only two names presented – Yahowah’s and Dowd’s. This is about them, their relationship, and what they have achieved.
Dowd | David is tsadyq | correct and thus acquitted and vindicating. He is tsadyq | right with God because he is 227tsadyq | right about God. The man who, by his own admission, had more faults than hairs on his head, was seen as tsadyq | innocent as a result of the Towrah, Miqra’ey, and Beryth.
One of Yahowah’s favorite metaphors for Dowd is Tsemach | Branch. It, and therefore, he, embodies a means to grow out of the rootstock of Yisra’el, making a connection between us and the Tree of Lives.
As God’s Firstborn Son, Dowd has “melek – royal lineage and supreme sovereignty.” And as a result of being immersed in Yahowah’s Set-Apart Spirit as a prophet, Dowd is “malak – thoughtful, considerate, and responsive.” He was and remains Yisra’el’s ideal shepherd and king.
One of the many reasons the Messiah is perfect for the job is because he is the most “shakal – insightful” of men. His “shakal – desire for understanding” is unsurpassed. When we combine his “shakal – intellectual capacity and cerebral acumen” with the “shakal – instruction and teaching” he derived from the Towrah, he remains perfectly positioned to “shakal – guide” Yahowah’s sheep.
The Towrah provides the “mishpat – ability to exercise good judgment and the means to justly resolve disputes.” The path to this ideal result is laid out in the Miqra’ey | Invitations to be Called Out and Meet with God. They are for our benefit. And when we engage and act upon them, we are deemed “tsadaqah – upright and righteous, correct and justified, approved and vindicated” in the eyes of God.
The day which Yahowah seeks to celebrate above all is Yowm Kipurym | the Day of Reconciliations in year 6000 Yah. It will begin at sunset in Yaruwshalaim | Jerusalem, 6:22 PM, October 2nd, 2033. Five chapters of the Mow’ed | Appointments volume of Yada Yahowah are devoted to exploring the magnificent nature of this day…
228“‘In his day (ba yowm huw’), Yahuwdah (Yahuwdah – Beloved of Yah and Related to Yah, Jews) will be liberated and saved (yasha’ – will be rescued and delivered (nifal imperfect)) and (wa) Yisra’el (Yisra’el – a compound of ‘ysh – individuals, who sarah – engage and endure with ‘el – God, Israelites) will live and dwell (shakan – will camp out and reside (qal imperfect)) in confidence, expressing their trust and reliance (la betach – totally assured and worry-free, safe and secure).
And thus, this is (wa zeh) his name (shem huw’ – his personal and proper designation and renown) which, as a benefit of the relationship (‘asher – which to show the way to get the most out of life), he will be called (qara’ huw’ – He will be summoned, invited, met with, and encountered, He will be proclaimed, read about, and recited (qal imperfect – literally and eternally)): “Yahowah Is Right about Our Vindication (Yahowah Tsadeq ‘Anachnuw – Yahowah is the Means to be Right, Yahowah is our Acquittal, Yahowah is our Righteousness).”’” (Yirma’yah / Yah Teaches and Guides / Jeremiah 23:6)
It is as it should be. Yahowah is acknowledging Dowd while the Son is acknowledging his Father. They are great individually, but perfect together. Dowd volunteered to serve in this way and Yahowah delivered the desired result.
Dowd is our Yatsa’ | Savior because Yahowah is Tsadeq | Right. Yahuwdah will be rescued and liberated and Yisra’el will thrive and remain by trusting in and relying upon what Dowd has done – albeit not alone. This is possible because Yahowah Tsadeq ‘Anachnuw!
With these words, Yahowah has destroyed the credibility of Christianity and Judaism. Peter, Paul and their stooges, Luke, Mark, and Matthew, claimed that, for allegedly having conspired to kill Jesus, Jews had forfeited 229the opportunity to be saved. Not so. They also claimed that “David” was dead and buried. Not accurate either.
The Chosen People will be liberated from the oppressive nature of religion and saved by Father and Son. A remnant will live forevermore. And just so there is no mistaking the object of God’s devotion, His flock bears the names Yahuwdah and Yisra’el.
God’s people are never called Hasidic or Haredim, never called Christians or Muslims, are never referred to as Babylonians, Assyrians, Philistines, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Druids, Mayans, Incas, Aztecs, Animists, Africans, Asians, Indians, Europeans, Russians, or Americans, much less Hindus, Roman Catholics, Orthodox Christians, Protestants, Mormons, or Secular Humanists. God is not returning for a “church,” because He has no interest or association with any such institution. He is not returning for “believers” or the “faithful,” because it is only those who know, trust, and rely upon Him who will endure.
Therefore, Dowd is not bringing salvation to any religious or political organization. To be saved, and to live with Yah, we must become: “Yahuwdah – Beloved of Yah” or “Yisra’el – Individuals who Engage and Endure with God.” Or both. And we must recognize that Dowd is our Savior and King, Yahowah is our God and Father, the Towrah is our source of Guidance and the Beryth is our Family.
There is no room for Replacement Theology here, the unsupported notion that the promises made by God to Yahuwdah and Yisra’el were somehow transferred to the “Christian Church.” There is no accommodation here for the absurd notion of a “Jesus Christ.” Just as Dowd | David is the antidote for Christianity and Replacement Theology, he is what is prescribed to remedy the localized pandemic of Judaism.
230In His Second of Three Statements, Yahowah overtly condemns religion, telling us that it is the way fathers corrupt their children. The religious pandemic would be so pervasive and deadly that, at the conclusion of this, the middle statement on the first of two tablets, God revealed that thousands, and not millions, would be saved. Thousands among billions are just one in a million. Should you choose to be one of them, Yahowah wants you to know that, while He was once known for having rescued His people from Mitsraym, upon His return, He will be celebrated for having rescued His Family from a different locale…
“‘Therefore (la ken), behold (hineh), a time is coming (yowmym bow’),’ prophetically declares Yahowah (na’um YaHoWaH), ‘when they will no longer say (wa lo’ ‘amar ‘owd), “Yahowah lives who raised (chay Yahowah ‘asher ‘alah) the Children of Yisra’el (‘eth ben Yisra’el) out of the realm of religious and political oppression (min ‘erets mitsraym),” (Yirma’yah 23:7) but instead as (ky ‘im), “Yahowah lives who raised (chay Yahowah ‘asher ‘alah) and who, for the benefit of the relationship, returned (wa ‘asher bow’) for the descendants (‘eth zera’) of the Family of Yisra’el (Beyth Yisra’el) from the land to the north (min ‘erets tsaphown – out of the realm of the hidden treasures those who are observant; from tsaphan – to be valued, tsaphah – to closely examine and carefully consider and own – all things pertaining to) and away from (wa min) all of the places (kol ha ‘erets) where I had scattered and banished them there by name (‘asher nadach hem shem).”
Then they shall live and remain (wa yashab) upon their own soil (‘al ‘adamah hem).’” (Yirma’yah / Respect and Revere Yah / Jeremiah 23:8)
There will be another Yatsa’ | Exodus, this one occurring during the Time of Ya’aqob’s Troubles. As was the case 3,468 years ago, Yahowah is coming to liberate 231the Children of Yisra’el from the places they are being oppressed by religion, politics, and conspiracy.
The overwhelming preponderance of Diaspora Jews currently reside north of Yisra’el (over 95%), particularly in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Russia. Moreover, there are hundreds of thousands of ethnic Yisra’elites around the Caspian Sea which is where the ten lost tribes were taken by the Assyrians long ago. However, beyond geography, by using tsaphown, God may also be saying that those who return will be “highly valued hidden treasures who are observant.”
That is the good news, but it comes with a strong dose of reality. The reason Yahowah revealed that there would only be as few as one in a million souls sufficiently liberated from religion, politics, and conspiracy to be saved is that Mal’aky was the last of the prophets. Without a Yahuwd to work with and through, there has been no communication with Yisra’el in 2,450 years. We are doing our best to make up for lost time and are hopeful that Yahuwdym will start paying attention.
If Jews were living safely and free to travel, there would be no need for Yah to intervene and rescue them. Therefore, while it is depressing in the Middle East and disgraceful in Europe, the treatment of Jews is rapidly deteriorating worldwide. Since Muslims are preeminent in their commitment to kill every Jew while claiming Yisra’el as their own, this prophecy foreshadows the mass northward migration of Muslim migrants out of the nations they have destroyed in the Middle East and into Europe – where they are making it nearly impossible for Jews to coexist.
For a people subject to such appalling treatment over the millennia, it is surprising that so many Jews fail to see the writing on the wall. As it was in the decades leading up to Rome’s first and second conquest of Yahuwdah and then 232the Third Reich’s assault against Yahuwdym, far too many Yisra’elites are hesitant to move to the only place they can maintain a modicum of safety – Yisra’el. Armed guards around synagogues and schools are not going to stop comatose Muslims from carrying out Satan’s agenda to kill as many of the Chosen People as possible. While they tread water in a sea of hate-filled anti-Semites, they will never be safe. Their only hope is to return home.
The only place that Yahowah will protect Yisra’elites is in Yisra’el. Individually, He does not know them because they are collectively estranged from Him. Many are ashamed of their nation and God, abandoning their heritage and birthright. I suspect that most have never read the Towrah and Prophets.
The way the statement, “When they shall no longer say ‘Yahowah lives who beneficially withdrew the Children of Yisra’el out of the land of Egypt’ but instead ‘Yahowah lives who beneficially came to lead the descendants of the House of Yisra’el out of the land of the north,’” is written suggests that the few Jews who make a pretense of acknowledging their past are still living in the past. Their God is no longer part of their lives. And that is why so many have suffered and died. They do not trust Him or rely on anything He has written for them in the Towrah. But now He is telling us and them that their attitude will change in the near future.
Only forty people in human history were inspired by Yahowah as prophets. And yet, the title is coveted by all manner of religious zealots. And it is of these presumptuous and misguided individuals that Yirma’yah is speaking. In contrast to Yahowah’s brilliant, rational, and accurate testimony, Yirma’yah announces that he finds the words spoken by religious leaders to be intoxicating, negatively affecting the judgment of those who listen to them. And sometimes, as was the case with the false prophets who founded the world’s most popular religions, 233Paul and then Muhammad, their testimony is so onerous that those who know Yahowah are shaken by its implications. This actual prophet was sickened by the pretenders.
This is now Yirma’yah | Jeremiah reacting to what he has seen while witnessing the future…
“Concerning the prophets who claim to speak for God (la ha naby’ym – regarding those who attempt to predict the future based on the pretense of divine inspiration), my thoughts are grieved, and my sense of justice is shattered (shabar leb ‘any – my attitude as a result of exercising good judgment is crushed (nifal perfect)) in my midst (ba qereb ‘any – within my inner being). My essential essence (kol ‘etsem ‘any – the structure of my existence including all of my bones) is shaken (rachaph – is affected). I am (hayah – I exist) similar to (ka – akin to and resembling) an intoxicated (shikowr – an inebriated) individual (‘ysh – man), (wa) like (ka – similar to) a man (geber – a person who is overwhelmed and inundated) overcome (‘abar – indulged) by wine (yayn huw’), because of the appearance (min paneh – from the presence) of Yahowah (Yahowah – written as directed by His towrah – teaching) and because of the presence (wa min paneh) of His set-apart words (dabar qodesh huw’ – the special and unique, separating, statements and message).” (Yirma’yah / Yah Lifts Up / Jeremiah 23:9)
Until the reference to Yahowah’s appearance in a world filled with false prophets, this might have been indicative of another period in human history, but when taken as a whole, God is speaking of the here and now. At the time of this writing in 2023 / year 5990 Yah, only ten years remain before His return. Therefore, recognizing that this is our time, we should be asking ourselves, who among us is making the direst predictions? Is it conspiracy theorists predicting doomsday events with reckless 234abandon? Is it the similarly shrill, ignorant and irrational voices of Progressives forecasting the end of the world as a result of anthropogenic global warming? Or is the din of doom coming from religious zealots?
There is no shortage of religious prognosticators today, from Christian eschatologists to Jewish and Mormon prophets, but for the first time in human history their tales of impending doom are drowned out by secular voices – that is, with the notable exception of Islamic terrorists. In the name of their deadly and hellish god, Allah, they are not just predicting the destruction of Israel and the West, they are actively engaged in fulfilling their own prophecies.
From Yah’s perspective, these false prophets are inspired by the Whore of Babylon. And while Christianity evolved from the Babylonian religion, Islam remains rooted there with the first written copies of the Quran and Hadith scribed in Babylon. Even Judaism is not immune. Their most revered text is the Babylonian Talmud. And so, while there are many contenders for the worst adaptation of religion in the here and now, in Yisra’el circa 2017 to 2033 CE, Islam will continue to be mankind’s greatest menace.
This is an emotional read. One of the last prophets was grieved that there would be no more truthful prophets. The realization that the entire community would turn away from Yahowah to pursue personal interests, politics and religion, was so disorienting, so difficult to process, he equated the effect it was having on him as inebriating and intoxicating.
We can appreciate his bewilderment. God revealed Himself to Yisra’el and Yahuwdah in their language, miraculously intervening on their behalf, and in response, they chose to act like Gentiles. Yahowah proved His existence and the reliability of His Towrah and Prophets by 235detailing every important aspect of Yisra’el’s remote past and distant future, only to have His people compose their own Talmudic Torah and forget His name.
From Mal’aky to the present day, there would not be a single Yahuwd willing to engage with God on behalf of the people to the extent that he or she could serve as a naby’. It got so bad that Yahowah decided to communicate through a Gowy, recognizing that this would be the last opportunity to convey and clarify the message the Hebrew prophets had shared long ago. Working together, they would make the words of the prophets pertinent to God’s people today.
Nonetheless, no matter how well intended and spiritually supported, the success of Yada Yahowah will be measured in the quality, not the quantity, of qualified individuals who respond. I say this based on the prophet’s portrait of what he saw in Yahowah’s presence upon His return. The Set-Apart Words of the prophets, even when amplified and explained, will not have awakened enough Yahuwdym to elicit a positive response from Yirma’yah – although I suspect the opposite is true with Yahowah. From the beginning, He has consistently chosen the few, and sometimes one or two over many.
Moving past false prophets to infidelity, with rare exceptions, when God speaks of na’aph | adultery, He is bemoaning His people’s propensity to cheat on their relationship with Him by being religious and chasing after gods of man’s making. He is not criticizing marriage, monogamy, or sexuality. The marriage vows we are most familiar with, “forsaking all others and till death do us part,” are unsupported in the Towrah, where there are no vows, polygamy is common, and divorce is as simple as writing a letter.
“‘Indeed (ky), the Earth (ha ‘erets – the Land and material realm) is filled with (male’ – is replete, satisfied, 236and content with (qal perfect)) religious infidelity (na’aph – with those who are unfaithful to the Covenant, engaging in illicit relationships with false deities (piel participle – the object of the religious adultery is being demonstrably cheated upon)).
Therefore, because of (ky min) the presence of this curse (paneh ‘alah – the appearance of the harmful nature of these binding oaths and lamentable sworn testimony), the Earth (ha ‘erets – the Land and material realm) is despondent (‘abel – is drying up, dejected and languid).
The dwelling places (naweh – the pastures, settlements, and abodes) where the word is questioned (midbar – the desolate wilderness of the questionable message; a compound of my – to question and dabar – word) are paralyzed and withering away (yabesh – are shriveling up and desolate (qal perfect)).
And (wa) their course of action, whereby they use oppression and extortion to facilitate their wayward lifestyle while running away (maruwtsah hem – their illicit financial dealings where money is stolen by those in power [read: religious and political authorities] to fund misguided and impulsive ways of living), was, is, and continues to be completely (hayah – exists as (scribed in the qal stem which tells us that the subject, which is the oppressive extortion, has and will actually occur, and imperfect waw consecutive which affirms that this choice of behavior will eventually cease even though its consequences will endure)) wrong (ra’ah – evil, wicked, distressful, disastrous, troubling, misfortunate, and harmful), while their use of power, influence, and authority (wa gebuwrah hem – their religious supremacy, political, economic, and military might) is not right, honest, or trustworthy (lo’ ken – is not valid, correct, just, or justified).’” (Yirma’yah / Yah Teaches and Guides / Jeremiah 23:10)
237Yahowah criticizes religious leaders as well as the institutions that empower them. He is upset that they are promoting false gods and says that, as a consequence, the world has become a wasteland in which most people shrink away from His Word. Among these sources of consternation, God is particularly displeased with the propensity of religious leaders to fund their often-lavish lifestyles by extorting money from the masses and by oppressing those they claim to serve.
The Almighty has put us on notice. The illicit financial dealings and lifestyles of religious leaders are not right, honest, or trustworthy. And this problem is not partial or limited but, instead, pervasive and complete. Pay them, listen to them, and follow them at your peril.
One of the reasons the masses buy into religion is that most promise that they will see their loved ones again in heaven. So, it is in the “mourning for the dead” that the living are beguiled.
In that na’aph | adultery is a common metaphor, it is instructive to see that it is wielded against religion, not sexuality. The “‘alah – curse” that has filled the Earth is “‘alah – illicit relationships with false gods,” especially Allah and Jesus Christ. The oaths of allegiance, so common among the religious and political, the patriotic and militaristic, are lamentable according to God.
By way of example, Islam was born as a criminal enterprise. The first act of the Islamic Era was the armed robbery of a civilian caravan. It is depicted in the 8th Surah of the Quran, demonstrating that Islam was conceived “maruwtsah – as a means to plunder and oppress.” Its wannabe prophet, Muhammad, wannabe god, Allah, and the religion they conceived was, is, and always will be “ra’ah – depraved and perverse,” and its “gebuwrah – influence” remains “lo’ ken – invalid and improper.”
238It is instructive to know that there are two Hebrew words transliterated ‘alah, one which begins with the Ayin and the other with an Aleph – with the latter serving to convey the name of the Islamic god, Allah. And that is how it was written in this prophecy, thereby demonstrating that everything associated with the “na’ap – illicit religious worship” of Allah is an “‘alah – curse perpetrated by an invalid and incompetent god.” This proclamation reveals that “Allahu Akbar” is a “harmful, vengeful, and improper oath of allegiance.”
Also pertinent, while Muhammad is universally referred to as a “prophet” by Muslims, and even by non-Muslims, his predictions have all failed to materialize. In fact, the only things he actually said that could be considered credible were plagiarized bastardizations of the Babylonian Talmud – making much of the Quran (from the Hebrew Qara’ – Recital) a collaborative effort between religions.
Therefore, according to God, a time would come when the entire world would “‘abel – grieve as a result of adversarial religious rites.” That time is now. The source is Islamic terrorism. It is a plague on humankind, one which flows out of the “midbar – deserts” of the Middle East. Islamic jihadists have done as Yahowah foresaw, paralyzing the world through their oppressive course of conduct, a byproduct of their wayward lifestyle.
Just as God foresaw, Muslims extort the means to their madness through kidnapping for ransom and sexual slavery. Muslims, like their wannabe prophet Muhammad are as “ra’ah – depraved and perverse” as any religious devotees in human history. Their every attempt to project their power, beginning with their murderous assault on the civilized world following Muhammad’s death, has been “lo’ ken – improper.” While Christianity has led more souls astray, Islam has claimed the most mortal lives.
239As we have discussed previously, midbar is routinely translated as “wilderness,” but there is more to this desolate environment. The realization that midbar is a compound of my – to question and dabar – word, explains why such places are lifeless. According to God, such religious curses are “yabesh – paralyzing, causing the faithful’s soul to shrivel up and wither away.”
Reinforcing the realization that Yahowah is continuing to bemoan religion, He speaks of it as being “maruwtsah – oppressive and extortionary” – which is something only the empowered can accomplish. And in this regard, Jews have been extorted and persecuted by Judaism, Christianity, and Islam for centuries.
While surprising to many, it is nonetheless true, that when it comes to illicit financial dealings, nobody holds a candle to the rabbis. They are especially good at being “ra’ah – bad.” Their abuse of power and authority has always been wrong. There is no justifying anything they have done.
As we proceed, there is no missing the fact that the adverse influence Yahowah is lambasting is religion. Nothing is more hypocritical or Godless, as deceitful or duplicitous. But should you suspect that singling out religious leaders in particular but also political potentates was unjustified, consider this…
“‘Indeed (ky – surely and truly), the prophet (naby’ – the person who claims to speak on behalf of a deity) in addition to (gam) the priest (kohen – the religious official and ruler, the cleric and minister, the royal advisor and priesthood) are defiled and Godless (chaneph – are filthy, morally corrupt, internally polluted, crooked, spineless, wavering, and unGodly).
And even (gam) in (ba) My house (beyth ‘any – My home [speaking of the Promised Land]), I have found (masa’ – I have discovered sufficient evidence to 240determine that) they are evil (ra’ah hem – they are wrong, wicked, and disastrous, troubling, miserable, and harmful),’ prophetically declares (na’um – affirms in advance of it occurring) Yahowah (YaHoWaH – an accurate presentation of the name of ‘elowah – God as guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence).” (Yirma’yah / Respect and Revere Yah / Jeremiah 23:11)
We could summarize Yahowah’s warning in three words: God damn religion. Claiming to speak for God, pretending to represent Him and to be appointed by Him, prophets and priests are evil, Godless hypocrites.
Among the informed and rational, there is no denying that these false “prophets” and irresponsible “priests” are religious leaders. Therefore, God’s indictment is focused upon the sectarian establishment. That, however, does not exonerate politicians because for most of human history religious and political power has been inseparable. Even today in nations that feign separation of church and state, most candidates draw their support from religious constituents. In America, the Republican Party and Christianity are wed, just as Socialist Secular Humanism has become ingrained within the Democratic Party, with Progressives becoming neo-Marxists.
We must, therefore, conclude, at least according to God, that those most intent upon appearing Godly are unGodly. Those who pretend to be moral are among the most immoral. Religion, rather than being a source of good that leads believers to God, is a bastion of evil, where the foolish and faithful are led astray.
It is time to throttle the voices singing and chanting the Piyyut, Zemirot, Nigun, Pizmonim, and Baqashot because Yahowah explicitly targeted Judaism in this prophecy pertaining to the last days. Speaking of the kohen and naby’ who He calls chaneph | defiled and Godless, filthy, 241immoral, and corrupt, crooked and spineless, even ra’ah | evil, wickedly wrong, and harmful, they are in God’s house.
And there is no wiggle room here because had Yahowah wanted to impugn the modicum of Christian priests, he would have used ‘erets | land rather than beyth | family and home. Moreover, there are no prophets in Islam, thereby excluding imams.
While it is true that all religions lead away from Yahowah, the one misleading God’s people is Judaism. But that is not to say that it doesn’t lead somewhere, because it does – to the death and destruction of one’s soul. That is with the exception of rabbis, who through their babel have paved a path to the darkness of She’owl.
According to Yahowah, religion is wrong. And in particular, since He is protesting the religiosity of His Household, God views Judaism as detestable and miserable…
“‘As a result, likewise (la ken – so much more so then), their way (derek hem – their path) will be for them (hayah la hem – will continuously come to exist for them (qal imperfect)) like (ka) the promise of empty and unfulfilled words, nothing but false hope (chalaqlaq – a slippery slope and a treacherous walk into the realm of falsehood and flattery; from a repetition of chalaq – dividing a spoil while reallocating something stolen, redistributing wealth by plundering others).
Away from the light and into the darkness (ba ha ‘aphelah – concealed and disappearing, ceasing to exist while coming to a calamitous and misfortunate end), they will be thrust down as a punishment (dachach – they will be cast down (nifal imperfect)) while being diminished (wa naphal – going from a higher position to a much lower one, losing control and falling prostrate) by it (ba hy’).
242Yes (ky – rest assured), I will bring (bow’ – I will return and pursue (hifil imperfect)) misfortune upon them (ra’ah ‘al hem – distress, misery, and suffering over them and their evil companions, errant associates, misleading shepherds, and depraved citizens) the year (shanah – the time of change and transformation) of their appointed judgment and punishment (paqudah hem – of reckoning, of exercising authority and assigning responsibility which results in imposing a penalty whereby they are placed into custody),’ prophetically declares (na’um – affirms in advance of it occurring) Yahowah ( – a transliteration of YaHoWaH as instructed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah – existence).” (Yirma’yah / Yah Teaches and Guides / Jeremiah 23:12)
God is fair. Those whose empty words and slimy ways have caused so many to fall will stumble into the pit of darkness filled with their ilk. Those who have lorded over God’s people will find themselves prostrate before God in judgment. Those who sought to elevate themselves by demeaning others will be cast down. The miserable misfortune of Divine punishment awaits the advocates of Judaism and related politics in Israel – their just recompense for having misled so many for so long.
God is light, so “ha ‘apelah – the darkness” represents total separation from Yahowah. She’owl is, therefore, exceedingly similar to a black hole.
And because being separated from God is the greatest plague of all, ha ‘apelah was used to describe the final judgment before Passover: “There will be a darkness (‘apelah) over the land of religious and political oppression, a darkness (‘apelah) which will be felt…in the realm of Mitsraym for three days.”
The fact that this statement began with la ken makes the punishment fit the crime – a quid pro quo. This is 243simply the consequence of religion in general and Judaism in particular.
Through Chalaqlaq, God is affirming that religion is nothing more than false hope – and thus the squandering of one’s life. Judaism, like Christianity, is predicated upon a litany of “chalaqlaq – empty and unfulfilling words.” Faith is the “slippery slope” into the darkness.
The realization that chalaqlaq is based on a repetition of chalaq demonstrates Yahowah’s adversity to “redistributing wealth,” as opposed to creating it, as well as to “plundering the productive.” Advancing these notions is what fuels liberal politics.
The time of Judgment is quickly approaching. Mankind’s reckoning with God will occur between October 2nd and the eight days following October 7th, 2033. You do not want to be among those judged. At this point, there will be only two options, the cessation of one’s soul or its eternal incarceration. Should you be interested in the third option, that of life within the Covenant, you will need to act before it’s too late.
You and I have been afforded three options. We can follow the religious and political to our mutual demise. Men and women have done so through compulsion or choice for the past 6,000 years, all without benefit. We can step aside and listen to Yahowah, then accept what He is offering and asking in return. Or we can promote the abhorrent foolishness Yahowah detests and earn His condemnation for having misled His flock…
“‘Among the prophets (wa ba naby’ – with those who claim to speak for God) of Shomarown (Shomarown – those who are observers, capital city of the Northern Kingdom, transliterated Samaria; from shamar – to observe and own – all things pertaining to it), I have seen (ra’ah – I am witnessing) something repulsive, foolish, and abhorrent (tiphlah – an unseemly and stupid prayer, 244an attempt to whitewash something offensive and criminal in nature, an unsavory smear campaign, a fool’s folly and impious proposition).
They claim to be divinely inspired (naba’ – they convey messages on behalf of their gods) by the Lord (ba ha Ba’al – by the Master, Controller, Owner, and One who Possesses, the god of Babylon).
They have led My people, Yisra’el, astray, deceiving the nation (wa ta’ah ‘eth ‘am ‘any ‘eth Yisra’el – they have misled My family, those I’m seeking to liberate and empower, causing them to vacillate, err, and wander away (hifil imperfect)).’” (Yirma’yah / Yah Lifts Up / Jeremiah 23:13)
Tiphlah was rendered correctly, revealing that God views the religious as “repulsive and abhorrent,” indeed, “stupid and foolish, offensive and unsavory.” Should you count yourself among them, and should you be offended by Yahowah’s assessment, you may want to think this through.
The title, naby’ | prophet, is similar to ‘elohym | gods in that the same word addresses both fraudulent and authentic. Religious and political leaders have claimed Divine inspiration and authorization for as long as there have been communities of people to deceive and control. They have promoted a continuum of manipulative and demanding, intrusive Lords by a plethora of names: Ba’al and Bel, Amen Ra and Osiris, Adonis and Dionysus, Mithras and Christus, Zeus and Jesus, HaShem, G-d, and Adoni. Common among these myths has been the need to obey and worship these gods, to submit to them and bow before them, to pray to them and pay them. A lot has been given, indeed taken, and nothing ever returned.
Accurately predicting future events has never been the strong suit of Lords and their stooges. Even the most infamous of them, Paul and Muhammad, never got so 245much as one prediction right. The same can be said for the long legacy of rabbis, including Akiba, Shammai, Judah ha-Nasi, Saadia Gaon, Shimon bar Yochai, Hillel, Nappaha, Rav Ashi, Maimonides, Nahmanides, or the infamous Baal Shem Tov who is Rabbi Israel ben Eliezer.
Fact is, apart from the forty men and women who spoke for Yahowah, beginning with ‘Abraham, whom Yahowah called a naby’, there are no other actual prophets. There is not another credible example of a religious deity inspiring any cleric to accurately present something that occurred in the distant past or remote future. Not one. The landscape is instead littered with laughable fables and foolish myths.
When I attest that there were forty men and women referred to as prophets within the Tanakh, there are some lesser-known characters and some surprises. The first reference is found in Bare’syth / Genesis 20:7, where Yahowah warned Abimelech that he should release Sarah because ‘Abraham was a naby’. This is interesting because it makes the discussion pertaining to the Covenant’s conditions and benefits prophetic – which is how I have interpreted them.
There are a number of prophets without books credited to them. These include Aaron, Miriam, Deborah, Hannah, Abigail, Huldah, Agur, Ahijah, Azariah, Balaam, Eliezer, Gad, Iddo, Elijah, Elisha, Nathan, and Ethan. The minor prophets would then include Ruth, Amos, Micah, Joel, Obadiah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, and Haggai, while some would add Hosea, Zechariah, and Malachi, as well as Solomon, to this list. The stars of prophetic revelation are well known and include Moses, Joshua, Samuel, David, Ezra, Nehemiah, Isaiah, and Jeremiah. Omitted from this list were Daniel, Ezekiel, Job, Jonah, and Enoch. And in the name of full disclosure, while there are a handful of named prophets whose roles were so insignificant I did not include them, there are a couple of 246potential clunkers in the list, such as Nehemiah and Haggai, men who were more historians than prophets.
Therefore, while the number of naby’ym are limited, some were so prolific with Yahowah, there are thousands of prophetic statements, all precisely detailed, all committed to writing, all of which have either materialized as predicted, or they are on the cusp of occurring before our very eyes. There have been thousands of credible affirmations without a single miscue.
This comparison is so stark it requires a level of stupidity beyond credulity to favor the myths of the Talmud, Zohar, New Testament, Quran, Book of Mormon over reality. And yet, as a testament to mankind’s propensity to mislead, even in the best of times, those who knew and trusted the One telling the truth were outnumbered a million to one by those who acquiesced to the lies.
As bad as this indictment is against the predominant rite of religion, it’s the fact that their prayers, Christian, Jewish, and Islamic, are offered to “ha ba’al – the Lord” or “‘adonai – my Lord” that sits at the heart of this indictment. By doing so, the faithful are “ta’ah – deceived and misled” into communing with the Adversary and worshiping Satan as if he were God.
Ha Ba’al is “the Lord.” According to God, it serves as both a title and the name of the Adversary. As the antithesis of Yahowah, Satan wants to lord over mankind, controlling, owning, and possessing human souls. And the easiest and most effective way to accomplish this sorry state of affairs is for Satan to convince pastors, prophets, and priests to refer to their god as “ha Ba’al – the Lord.” By doing so, Christians, Jews, and Muslims are beguiled into offering prayers to Satan, and worshiping the Adversary, as if he were God.
247This is what Satan craves. It is all he actually desires. He does not want to be known or seen as “ha Satan – the Adversary” but instead as above the Almighty. He accomplishes this by becoming the god of Christianity and Islam. Allah is Satan. The Lord is Satan. Only Yahowah is God.
Before we move to Yahowah’s next statement, there are four additional things we should consider. First, one of the reasons that the Third Statement Yahowah etched in stone states that the “negation and belittlement of My name, Yahowah, causing it to be for naught, is unforgivable” is highlighted in this passage. Had Christians and Jews not removed Yahowah’s name from His Word, it would have been essentially impossible for rabbis, imams, and priests to mislead anyone into believing that the Lord is God or that Allah is God’s name. The removal of Yahowah’s name from His testimony is the greatest crime ever committed by man or beast. Jesus Christ is the byproduct of this egregious act.
Second, “bible” and “babel” are written identically in Hebrew. And babel not only means “to confuse by commingling,” it is the Hebrew name for Babylon – the birthplace of the beast and of religion – the place most associated with Satan. Further, babel is a compound of ba and bel. Ba means “with,” and Bel is the name and title of the supreme deity of the Babylonians, meaning “Lord.” Therefore, bible means “With Bel” and “With the Lord,” and thus with Satan. That is a sobering thought.
Third, while Yahowah is disappointed that the Babylonians were misled by Satan and that the babel of their religious, political, patriotic, and militaristic aspirations poisoned the Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks, He is not complaining about what happened to them. His primary concern was, is, and always will be for Yisra’el. Similarly, while He is angry at clerics, politicians, and generals for collectively squandering the lives of five 248billion Gentiles through their Church, their victims were never part of God’s Family. Our Father grieves for His own.
That does not mean that Yahowah does not care about Gentiles. He loves those who, through the Covenant, are grafted into Yisra’el, becoming Yahuwdym in the purest sense of the word.
Fourth, there is no reason for anyone to pray. And that is why Yahowah never asks us to do so. You may have noticed that there is no mention of either prayer or worship among the Ten Statements on the Two Tablets.
We are best served when listening to God by reciting His Word. We gain nothing babbling back at Him. He not only knows what we need, He has stated it repeatedly. He has made it as clear as words allow that He is not only ready, but is committed, to providing all of the benefits of the Covenant: eternal life, perfection, adoption, enrichment, and empowerment. It shows a complete lack of respect for what Yahowah has presented in His Towrah to ask God to provide that which He has already offered or to give what He has already promised to bestow.
Every time a Jew bobs his head in ritualistic prayer, Christians say “Grace” before meals, a Catholic performs the “Rosary,” or someone gets on their knees and bow their heads in prayer, they are aggravating God by disrespecting His Word. And if that were not bad enough, consider what Yahowah must think of Muslims as they prostrate themselves each day, bowing down in homage to Satan’s Black Stone in the Ka’aba.
Moreover, what is it about people who believe that a God whose name they do not know, whose testimony they do not read, whose plan they reject, is somehow going to listen to them, wants to heal them, enrich them, or save them? All such prayers are indeed “tiphlah – requests for something repulsive, pleas which are foolish, and prayers 249which are abhorrent, speeches which whitewash, smearing over the original intent, offensive and criminal, in addition to unsavory and unseemly, stupid and silly, worthless and unappealing, utterly without merit.”
While Christianity is the most pervasive plague to sweep the globe, and Islam is by far the deadliest religion, Yahowah despises Judaism more than any other. Although it may only affect one-tenth of one percent (recognizing that less than half of Jews are religious) of the world’s population, rabbis have earned Yah’s wrath for not only claiming to speak for the God of Yisra’el, but also for misleading His Chosen People.
“‘Also, among (wa ba) Yaruwshalaim’s (Yaruwshalaim – Source of Teaching and Guidance on Restoration and Reconciliation (transliterated Jerusalem)) prophets (naby’ – those who claim divine authorization and inspiration), I have seen (ra’ah – I witness) an abomination which is horrible and shocking (sha’aruwrah – something terribly defiling akin to a ravaging and tempestuous storm).
They are unfaithful and commit religious adultery (na’aph – they engage in illicit relationships with false deities (qal infinitive – they are defined by having actually and demonstrably cheated on the Covenant)), and they walk (wa halak) in the lie (ba ha sheqer – in fraudulent and misleading deception, by vainly and egotistically uttering false and useless delusions without merit or reason).
So they become powerful by empowering (wa chazaq – they use extremely harsh and severe tactics to gain control by strengthening) the hands (yad – the influence and control) of miserable and errant coconspirators (ra’a – of evil associates and harmful countrymen, of the vexing and injurious, displeasing and hurtful who are good for nothing) such that not a single 250(la bilthy – so that without exception, through disassociation, there isn’t one) individual (‘iysh – person) turns away (shuwb – is willing or able to change (qal perfect)) from his perverse countrymen and errant associations (min ra’ah huw’ – from his ruinous and corrupt companions).
To Me (la – according to Me), all of them (kol hem) have become (hayah – they were, are, and continue to be) like (ka – the same as) Sodom (Sodom –Scorched) and they live (wa yashab hy’ – they dwell and remain) like (ka – similar to) Gomorrah (‘Amorah – where tyrants manipulate the people, treating them as merchandise and slaves).’” (Yirma’yah / Respect and Revere Yah / Jeremiah 23:14)
When we as members of the Covenant Family affirm that we are Towrah-observant, when we attend Pesach, Matsah, Bikuwrym, Shabuw’ah, Taruw’ah, Kipurym, and Sukah, when we refer to Yahowah by name and show a preference for His Shabat, when we explain the meaning of the Hebrew words God used to communicate with us, Christians opposed to these things dismiss Yahowah’s message by calling us “Judaizers,” wrongly inferring that we are trying to convert them to the Jewish religion.
But nothing could be further from the truth. God hates Judaism, as do we. And religious Jews do none of these things. They are Talmud-keepers, not Towrah-observers. They ignore most of the Feasts and make a mockery of the others. They never refer to Yahowah by name. And they seldom, if ever, consider the actual meaning of the words God used to introduce Himself to us because they have been brainwashed by rabbis into believing that only trained clerics are qualified to explain “HaShem’s” message.
Ponder for a moment just how critical Yahowah is of those claiming to speak for Him in Jerusalem today – which would include, by the way, a host of Islamic Imams 251and Christian Priests in addition to Jewish Rabbis. He says that He has been shown them promoting “sa’ruwr – a shockingly vile, horribly defiling abominations, demonstrating behavior which is astonishingly disgusting and despicable.” According to God, these religious leaders “na’ap – promote illicit religious worship and are therefore spiritually idolatrous adulterers.”
Their preaching is comprised of “sheqer – disappointing lies and misleading and irrational deceptions, of mistaken beliefs and falsehoods, of empty promises and false covenants, a false witness laden with groundless accusations.” I dare say, we would be foolish not to recognize that God hates religion.
But if that were not enough to awaken the comatose from their religious slumber, there was more to this prophecy. Yahowah undermined the very foundation of human civilization – of the sectarian upholding the secular. There was no separation of religion and politics in Babylon, Egypt, Rome, or Greece. There has been none in the Roman Catholic Church. There has been none in Islam. From 400 CE under Theodosius to the fall of the French monarchy in 1792, Europe was plagued by the wicked alliance between clerics and kings. The Islamic Middle East continues to be debilitated for this very reason. Moreover, in America, Christian pastors and Roman Catholic clergy are becoming increasingly political.
Throughout time, prophets and priests have obtained positions of power and influence by strengthening the hand of kings, by claiming that the king was ordained to rule by God. In return, the king declares that the only acceptable religion is the one promoted by the priests who have endorsed him. God finds this alliance where the priesthood “chazaq – becomes powerful by solidifying” the authority of those who are “ra’a – displeasing and wrong, evil and harmful” to be “ra’ah – wickedly debilitating and adversarial.”
252There are those who say in jest that if God does not punish today’s leaders and the society they have fostered for what they are doing, then He owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology. Well, don’t worry, God views the world today just as He saw Sodom and ‘Amorah. Since He does not change, since He is consistent, what do you think He is going to do to this planet prior to His return?
Since Yahowah has openly condemned the false religious claims that affect Jerusalem, we are compelled to consider the strangest of them. As a result of the Satanic Verses, where Muhammad accepted sex, power, and money to recognize the leading goddesses of the rock pile of rock gods known as the Ka’aba, Allah’s Messenger excused his sojourn into paganism by announcing in the Quran that all of Allah’s prophets speak on behalf of Satan. While that was true, it was a little sketchy, so Allah’s Messenger, needing to bolster his fledgling credibility, came up with the following story – one which inspires Satan’s dimwits to this day.
According to Muhammad, no doubt sober, while sleeping with a child (he was 53 and the girl was 6), this bastion of morality was flown atop a wild ass from his bedroom in Mecca (actually Petra, but that’s another story) to the Temple in Jerusalem. Mind you, asses don’t fly, there was no Temple in Jerusalem at the time, and there hadn’t been one since it was destroyed by the Romans 540 years earlier. But let’s not let the facts get in the way of a bad story.
Once in Jerusalem following the Night’s Journey, the Mighty Mo scheduled appointments with all of the Hebrew bigwigs, including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and Issa, whom he claimed was Jesus – unaware that he never existed. After the powwows, the Prophet saddled the Winged Ass and leaped up to the Heavens, leaving a hoofie-print to mark the spot that the Dome of the Rock would commemorate as a trophy to Muslim gullibility.
253No doubt telling the truth, Allah’s preferred pedophile and terrorist passed through Hell on the way to Heaven. When he asked why it was filled with women hanging from meat hooks placed lovingly through their breasts (methinks he may have had mommy issues), he was told that they were insufficiently grateful to the Muslim men who had abused them.
Then leaping aboard ‘el Baraq | the Winged Ass, Islam’s most acclaimed asshole made his way through the heavens, allegedly from the first to the seventh, with inflammatory stories told all along the way. Once there, Allah’s messenger boy was granted an audience with his god, Satan, known to Muslims as Allah. Doing his best to impersonate ha Ba’al, the Islamic Lord demanded that every Muslim must bow to him fifty times a day, nose in the dirt and asses in the air. To which, Allah’s Messenger argued that this was too big a burden for Muslims – tasked as they would be terrorizing the world and murdering Jews. So, he asked for a reduction in prostrations.
That is the story. It is the reason Muslims claim Jerusalem as their third-holiest site today and are eager to masquerade as Fakestinian terrorists in Fakestine – ever ready to murder anyone who denies their claim to Jerusalem based on their prophet’s totally rad adventure.
Then there is that other guy. With an ego as big as the Devil himself, Sha’uwl, whom Christians know as Paul, wouldn’t need the flying ass. But nonetheless, he too would claim to have visited the seventh heaven. His remarkable story is told at the conclusion of his second letter to the Corinthians. It is actually worth the read because the wannabe Apostle, like Allah’s Messenger, admitted to being demon-possessed – affirming that they knew that their Lord was, indeed, Satan.
Methinks both of these tall tales serve as worthy candidates for “sha’aruwrah – a shocking and senseless 254abomination.” And yet, between Islam and Christianity, 4 billion people prefer the stalwart testimony of these charlatans to anything Yahowah has to say.
Perhaps that is why “na’aph – committing religious adultery” is akin to “halak ba ha sheqer – walking in a lie following egotistical delusions without reason or benefit.” The realization that billions have been willing to die and kill for such utter nonsense is bewildering, especially since they won’t invest a moment to consider what Yahowah, who just so happens to be God, had to say.
As a result, a “ra’a – evil association” was formulated between “chazaq yad – those empowering one another.” The result was so vexing and injurious, so debilitating, that “la bilthy ‘iysh – no one, not a single solitary soul,” was “shuwb – willing or able to turn away” from the “ra’ah – perverse and corrupting notions of their fellow countrymen.” The ra’ah | conniving coconspirators, the Lord’s legions, prevailed over the Almighty, corrupting the Earth such that it would come to resemble Sodom and Gomorrah. And that is why it will all be incinerated upon Yahowah’s return – leaving nothing, including their stigma and stench.
Since it did not turn out well for Sodom or Gomorrah, let’s be clear – there is only one paradigm capable of corrupting everyone the world over: religion. While I am saddened for Yahowah, as He deserves better, I am grateful for the opportunity to reverse the damage. Even if we only make a small dent in the overbearing façades of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Socialist Secular Humanism, it will have been worth the effort.
The very people who have the faithful believe that they have earned a special place with God will be judged and condemned by Him…
“As a result, therefore (la ken), this is what (koh) Yahowah (Yahowah – God’s name transliterated as guided 255by His towrah – instructions on His hayah – existence) of the vast array of spiritual envoys (tsaba’ – of the command-and-control regime of implements who serve by following orders) says (‘amar) in opposition to (‘al – against and over) those who claim to speak for God (ha naby’ – the prophets),
‘Behold, I (hineh ‘any – be aware, I) will cause them to consume (‘akal ‘eth hem – will feed and destroy them with (hifil participle)) this unpleasant and bitter curse (la’anah – the degrading nature of their response and the affliction associated with their answers).
Then I will cause them to drink (wa shaqah hem – I will furnish a portion of (hifil perfect)) poisonous (ro’sh – venomous and deadly, depicting that which comes from the head of the snake) water (maym).
This is because (ky) from (min – and out of) these prophets (‘eth naby’) of Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim – the Source of Guidance on Reconciliation) comes forth (yatsa’ – is brought out and emerges) profanity, corruption, hypocrisy, and Godlessness (chanuphah – that which is unclean, defiled, polluted, unreliable, and hypocritical) to all (la kol) the Earth (ha ‘erets – the material world).’” (Yirma’yah / Yah Teaches and Guides / Jeremiah 23:15)
Yahowah intends to hold the religious accountable. And to do so, He will feed them what they have asked others to consume – drinking down their own toxins.
Most religious deceivers will have earned an eternity in She’owl. It will be an “la’anah – unpleasantly bitter and nauseous experience.” Since there will be no material existence and no light, there will be no fires or bodies to suffer and burn in She’owl. But that is not to say that it won’t be unpleasant. Just imagine spending an eternity with religious hypocrites.
256They spewed out poison, so it is only fair that they drink what they dispensed. According to God, the false prophets, and thus pastors, priests, rabbis, and imams promote “chanuphah – wicked profanity, insincere hypocrisy, and Godless corruptions.” Knowing Yah’s perception of religion, shouldn’t we follow His advice and ignore what they have to say?
“This is what (koh – so now, therefore, as a result) Yahowah (Yahowah – the proper pronunciation of the name of YaHoWaH, our ‘elowah – God as directed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah existence and our shalowm – restoration) of the vast array of envoys (tsaba’ – the spiritual command-and-control regime of messengers who serve by following orders) says (‘amar – declares and affirms),
‘You should never listen (‘al shama’ – you should absolutely and certainly not hear or pay attention to the audible message (qal imperfect jussive – speaking of the actual and unfolding consequences of this advice offered under the auspices of freewill)) concerning (‘al – upon or to) the words, speeches, statements, and messages (dabary – the communications, accounts, treatises, and promises) of those prophets (ha naby’ – of those claiming divine inspiration) who claim to speak for God (ha naby’ – who insist they are authorized and inspired by God, who claim to have received a prophecy through divine revelation, or who claim to be the messenger of God (the nifal stem reveals that these false prophets promote and are inflicted by their false pronouncements)) to you (la ‘atem – when they approach you).
They are filling you with worthless and delusional lies which provide an unwarranted sense of false hope (habal hem ‘eth ‘atem – they are promoting that which is useless, untrue, and unreliable to you by taking things out of context, making them of no value to you, as their promises to you are utterly meaningless, empty, and futile, 257even idolatrous, ultimately misleading you with errant opinions which are futile (the hifil stem causes the listener to act like the speaker and thus embrace the same delusional lies and be consumed with the same false hope)).
Revealing (chazown – intelligently seeing and accurately perceiving) their own heart, disposition, and judgment (leb hem – their inner nature, character, and attitude, their own desires, motivations, ambitions, and thoughts), they speak (dabar – they communicate and converse, providing a message (piel imperfect)) which is not from (lo’ min – not out of) the mouth of (peh – the source of communication of) Yahowah (Yahowah – an accurate transliteration of the name YaHoWaH, our ‘elowah – God as guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence and our shalowm – reconciliation).’” (Yirma’yah / Yah Lifts Up / Jeremiah 23:16)
There is no more apt depiction of a religious cleric than this. Too bad Martin Luther didn’t nail God’s declaration to the church door. And while that is a valid assessment, Yahowah was actually describing rabbis and denouncing their Talmud. It is just that one-shoe-fits-all of those who trip up the unsuspecting. In truth, Martin Luther was too busy being an anti-Semitic pig to be bothered citing something Yahowah revealed about him and his ilk.
Religious faith has always been, and will forever be, nothing more than false hope. God does not want His people to listen to anything a religious person has to say – ever!
And then, after telling us that we should never listen to a religious cleric, God tells us why: they speak for themselves, revealing their hearts and minds, and not for Yahowah. If you want to know what God thinks, consider 258what Yirma’yah or Yasha’yah have to say, or Moseh or Dowd if you prefer.
Those who insist that they speak for God, don’t. Examples include Rabbi Akiba, the founder of Judaism, Paul, the founder of Christianity, and Muhammad, the founder of Islam. Today’s popes, who claim to be infallible as God’s authorized agents, are delusional liars. God speaks for Himself and quite articulately I might add. He revealed the Towrah in His own voice, and His prophets scribed the words that came from His mouth.
And since it is germane to what you are reading, I do not speak for God but, instead, of God. His prophets spoke for Him, and I strive to convey their message such that it resonates today.
And yet, in doing so, I am often criticized, suggesting that I am being mean because I have undermined the hope people seek from their religion. The faithful have been beguiled into believing that they will be saved, that they are going to heaven, and that they will be reunited with their loved ones when they arrive. But none of that is true. So who is being unkind, those who promote these false expectations, or those who advise the open-minded not to believe them?
I am with God on this one. The most reasonable, responsible, and compassionate thing to do is to expose and condemn the “habal – the empty promises and worthless lies which foster false hope.” Neither pastors nor priests, neither prophets nor preachers, neither rabbis nor imams speak for God. You should not listen to them. They speak for themselves and on behalf of their religion.
Beyond the fact God has just affirmed that religious leaders do not speak for Him, it is not hard to figure this out on our own. All we have to do is compare Paul’s and Muhammad’s testimony, for example, to Yahowah’s. And 259when we find that their words are in irresolvable conflict with God’s, it is obvious who is lying.
So why do 2.4 billion Christians and 1.8 billion Muslims believe men whose testimony is so readily demonstrated to be invalid? In seeking God, why don’t they listen to His advice?
“‘They continuously say (‘amar ‘amar – they preach and they promise, they declare and they pontificate, and they boast without ceasing (qal participle qal infinitive)) to those who spurn and slander Me, who disregard and despise Me (la na’ats ‘any – to those who treat Me with contempt, who demean My status, who treat Me disrespectfully and who discard what I have to say, who blaspheme Me and act as if I no longer matter (piel participle)) – regarding the very word and the message of (dabar – the instructions, accounts, and promises of) Yahowah (YaHoWaH – an accurate presentation of the name of ‘elowah – God as guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence), “Shalowm hayah la ‘atem | Peace be unto you (shalowm hayah la ‘atem)!”
But they all walk (wa kol halak) in the stubbornness of their heart (ba sharruwth leb huw’ – devoted to their ambitions, resolutely adhering to their own ideas, and in the firmness of their convictions, refusing to change).
They claim (‘amar – they say), “Miserable suffering from such associations (ra’ah – the consequence of evil shepherding) will not come upon you (lo’ bow’ ‘al ‘atem – you will not be included in or return to).”’” (Yirma’yah / Yah Lifts Up / Jeremiah 23:17)
We would have to look long and hard to find a verb more condemning than na’ats – especially when directed toward the Creator of the universe. Rather than honoring God or revering the Almighty, pastors, prophets, priests, and in this context, preachers, including rabbis and imams, 260“na’ats – reject and slander, disregard and demean” Yahowah with their testimony. It’s more than not knowing God; religious clerics are actually opposed to Him. Which is exactly what I have witnessed. When a Christian or Muslim is confronted by Yahowah’s name or His Word, they “na’ats – hold it in contempt while discarding and disparaging” everything God has to say.
As I have conveyed throughout this book: the religious do not speak for God; they speak against Him. Religions do not lead to God; they lead away from Him. Pastors, prophets, preachers, and priests do not serve God; they serve the Adversary. You will not find the Word of God in the Christian New Testament, the Babylonian Talmud, or Muhammad’s Quran. Nor will you find it in the ongoing declarations of those who do not love Yahowah’s name and who do not cherish His Towrah. And this isn’t my opinion, something you are free to discount, but instead Yahowah’s position on the matter of religion.
Yahowah is right, once again. The most popular greeting in the world has become “Peace be unto you.” It is cited by Jews, Muslims, Christians, and even Socialist Secular Humanists. And yet, those who “sharruwth leb – remain stubborn and refuse to change their twisted thinking and remain steadfast in their adversarial convictions” will never know the meaning of “shalowm – reconciliation and restoration.”
As it was with the pharaoh, it is with every overtly religious, political, and patriotic individual. Nothing phases them. No amount of unassailable evidence or irrefutable logic, not even the Word of God, will dissuade them from their beliefs. Their hearts are hard, impervious to the truth, and resistant to reason. Talking to them, proving that they are wrong, and revealing what is right is an utter waste of time and breath. Even God, Himself, cannot save a religious person.
261Having not seen sharruwth before, I enjoyed considering the words which comprise its meaning. Turns out, stubborn twisted thinking is a product of superfluous and disquieting thoughts advanced by the adversarial lord, none other than the fiery serpent.
I am certain that Islamic Imams tell young impressionable boys and girls considering serving Allah as suicide bombers that they will not suffer any affliction. Christian evangelists promise a release from suffering as well, telling the proselyte that by accepting their salvation mantra they will avoid the misery of hell. The new-age preacher even asserts that those who join their church and accept their way of thinking will be spared from anxiety. Salvation is cheap and easy. But it is all hogwash. Complete and utter bullshit – literally.
By excluding Yahowah from their lives, by listening to rabbis instead of God, religious Jews remain isolated and estranged…
“By contrast (ky – rather instead), which (my – who) of them was present (‘amad – of them was appointed, assigned, or could even endure standing) in the counsel of (ba sowd – in the company and council so as to be confided in, intimately trusted by, consulted with and relied upon, developing an intimate fellowship with through a close personal relationship as a confidant of) Yahowah ( – a transliteration of YaHoWaH as instructed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah – existence) and has seen (wa ra’ah – has been shown, witnessed, perceives, has considered, finds delight in (qal imperfect – actually and consistently viewing)) or heard (shama’ – and listened to (qal imperfect)) His Word (‘eth dabar huw’ – His message)?
Who (my) among them has paid attention and responded to (qahsab – of them was sufficiently alert and attentive to perceive) His word (dabar huw’ – His 262message, communication, and testimony) and (wa) has genuinely and consistently listened (shama’ – has actually and consistently paid attention (qal imperfect))?” (Yirma’yah / Respect Yahowah / Jeremiah 23:18)
Those whom Yahowah calls into His confidence, those He confides in and trusts, all share something in common: they “ra’ah – look at” and “shama’ – listen to” the “dabar – word” of God before they “‘amar – speak.” And because the goal is to “qashab – be alert, attentive, and perceptive,” they are motivated to “shama’ – listen all the more.”
“None” is the obvious answer. If they had observed Yahowah’s Word, if they paid attention to God’s testimony, if they understood what the Almighty revealed, they would not be religious and would not say such stupid things.
Ultimately, it all comes down to a single idea: are we willing to look at and listen to Yahowah’s Word? In this regard, qasab is telling, because rather than just communicating the idea of “listening,” which is what we glean from shama’, it speaks of “paying attention, accepting the message as true, and then responding appropriately to it.” It is these very things which form the basis of our salvation.
To an infinite degree, God is smarter and more experienced than the best of us. So, between now and the time He empowers, enlightens, and enriches us exponentially as a result of the Covenant, ultimately placing His towrah | guidance within us, the relationship works best when He teaches and we learn.
And yet, this disparity between the qualifications of God and man has not been sufficient to dissuade religious men from pretending to speak on behalf of God. But be 263aware, God is aware. And He is not pleased with the arrogance and insolence of the rabbis.
