A Son is Given
And His Name is Dowd…
Near the conclusion of Dowd’s Song, we were reminded that the Messiah is Yahowah’s geber | strong and empowered man. Geber serves as the basis for Gibowr, which is one of Dowd’s most important designations. In the lyrics of the Psalm, we read…
“What man of great strength and character, empowered to prevail (my geber – who, as the most capable and courageous of men) lives (chayah) and (wa) will not witness (wa lo’ ra’ah) death as a result of the plague (maweth), saving his soul (malat nepesh huw’) from the hand and influence (min yad) of Sha’uwl (Sha’uwl – Question Him, the Benjamite wolf in sheep’s clothing who, as a result of being demon-possessed, changed his name to reflect his affinity with Rome, becoming Paul, the principal author of the Christian New Testament and the Father of Lies)? Pause now and consider the implications (selah).” (Mizmowr / Psalm 89:48)
A geber is a mortal man, albeit a person of considerable notoriety, courage, and character. A geber is imbued with the strength to prevail. God was, therefore, addressing His Son, telling us that he will not allow him to be plagued by Paul. It is Sha’uwl who will fail as Dowd rises above him.
This known, there are two exceedingly important titles based on geber | this strong and influential man that I’d like 388to explain before we venture into one of the most impactful prophecies regarding him. The first is Gibowr, which adds the full extent of noble characteristics to an already vaulted term. Dowd, as Yahowah’s Gibowr, was His Most Capable, Competent, and Courageous Man. As a Gibowr, Dowd was known for fighting for Yisra’el and defending God’s People. He was a valiant leader of men.
The second pertinent title or name predicated on geber is Gabry’el, which is misconstrued to describe an angel by rabbis, Christians, and Muslims. But since the designation is a compound of geber and ‘el, that view is not possible. This name describes “God’s Most Capable and Courageous Man. Gabry’el is, therefore, Dowd. It was Dowd, under his title Gabry’el, who spoke to Daniel, providing the prophecy about what he, himself, would do.
So, let’s turn to that prophecy now as we present the Mashyach’s case for what he, as the Mashyach, would accomplish. As we will discover, Yahowah’s solution to reconcile and restore His Covenant relationship was as ingenious as it was comprehensive. He accepted and then supported Dowd’s request to save his people by fulfilling Passover and UnYeasted Bread. His corporeal basar | body would serve as the Zarowa’ while his incorporeal nepesh | consciousness would facilitate our perfection by depositing our guilt in She’owl. Then Yahowah had His Set-Apart Spirit retrieve Dowd’s soul to reveal the purpose of Bikuwrym as the Bakowr | Firstborn was brought back Home.
In this way, the Covenant’s children have become immortal and perfected, redeemed from the corruption of religious and political institutions, and thereby prepared to enter Yah’s Home as His children. Even better, with the Mow’ed He fulfilled in year 4000 Yah, we are emancipated and enlightened, enriched and empowered – uniquely capable of doing as God desires.
389So that we would not miss the significance of what Dowd would do for us, Yahowah inscribed within His Towrah, Prophets, and Psalms countless predictive prophecies pointing to the fulfillment of His promises. We have already reviewed many of these because the fulfillments of the Mow’ed are the most essential aspects of Yahowah’s plan of reconciliation.
Surprising to many, Yahowah’s eyewitness prophetic depictions of Dowd’s participation in Passover, UnYeasted Bread, and Firstborn Children are vastly more descriptive of what would eventually occur, more accurate and meaningful, than anything found in the New Testament. In fact, when we study the prophets including Dowd, himself, we are poised to discard the jaundiced hearsay anti-Semitism perpetrated in the Christian religious writings.
Among the last books revealed, just prior to Yow’el, Zakaryah, and Mal’aky, was Dany’el | Daniel. And while he was more scallywag than prophet, since he was in the heart of the beast, Yahowah sent Dowd to explain how His people might extricate themselves from this religious and political swamp. As a result, under the guise of Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable and Courageous Man, the Messiah provided a truly amazing and comprehensive prophetic portrayal relative to Yahowah’s timing and intent. This is particularly true with regard to what is presented in the 9th chapter – which I will explain since it is universally misunderstood.
While a captive in the heart of the Beast, in the most corrupt place on Earth, in the birthplace of institutionalized religion and its amalgamation with politics, militarism, and economics, in the very place Yahowah asked ‘Abraham to leave before he would be allowed to participate in the Covenant, in Babel | Babylon, Yahowah’s Son revealed a prediction that unlocks the mystery of time, ultimately pinpointing the very date that he would arrive in Yaruwshalaim to honor Yahowah’s Towrah promises.
390However, prior to Gabry’el’s arrival, Dany’el demonstrated that he was not a prophet. His introductory statement is inaccurate. Darius I was the fourth king of Persia seventeen years after Belshazzar’s death. He was the son of Hystaspes, the satrap of Bactria, and became the spear bearer of Cyrus’s son Cambyses II. Xerxes was actually Darius I’s son, not his father. Further, while Xerxes ruled Persia from 485 to 465 BCE, and had a son named Darius, he was murdered by Artabanus so that Xerxes’ third son, Arses, could claim the throne, ruling as Artaxerxes beginning in 464 BCE.
In addition, Cyrus was a descendant of Maday, as was the interloping Magi, Gaumata, but not Darius. Therefore, with Daniel failing the Towrah’s test of a prophet, as would Ezekiel after him, we must properly contend with the Babylonian Effect if we are to benefit from what follows…
“In the first year of (ba shanah ‘echad la) Darius (Daryawesh – a Babylonian name implying that he was good), the son of (ben) Xerxes (‘Achashwerowsh – proclaiming that he was a hero among rulers), a descendant of (min zera’ – from the seed of) Maday (Maday – a foreign name meaning Middle Land, encouraging us to mah – question whether it was day – sufficient in Hebrew), who (‘asher) reigned as king over (malak ‘al malkuwth) the Chaldeans (Kasdym – those who break the earth; a synonym for Babel | Babylon), (Dany’el 9:1) in the first year of his reign (ba shanah ‘echad la malak huw’), I (‘any), Dany’el (Dany’el – God Judges and Vindicates), by being perceptive and discriminating, came to understand (byn – through careful observation, separating fact from fiction, came to realize and comprehend by making reasonable connections) in (ba) the written scrolls (ha sepher – the inscribed books) that the number of years (misphar ha shanah – the written accounting of the times of renewal) which will transpire (‘asher hayah) in the Word (dabar) of Yahowah 391(Yahowah) to (‘el) the Prophet (naby’) Yirma’yah (Yirma’yah – Yah Uplifts) for the destruction (la charbah – for the depopulation) of Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim – the Source of Guidance regarding Reconciliation) to be fulfilled and completed (la male’ – to be finished and satisfied) was seventy years (shibi’ym shanah – was based upon the promise of seven).” (Dany’el / My God Judges / Daniel 9:2)
The reason the Dabarym 18 test to expose false prophets exists is because God does not want anyone misled by them. And in this case, the obviously errant introduction to the 9th chapter wasn’t our first clue that something was seriously amiss because the first six chapters of Daniel are incompatible with Yahowah’s approach to religion and government. And they are also errant historically.
However, just because Daniel wasn’t a prophet, does not mean that there is no prophecy in the book emblazoned with his name. Dany’el was visited by prophets, the most eloquent of whom was Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable and Courageous Man – ha Mashyach Dowd. And what he had to say about what he and his Father would accomplish was profound, prophetic, and vital to Yisra’el’s survival.
As we enter the 9th chapter, with the exception of the historical reversal, Dany’el is conveying the rest of this message as I would, not as a prophet, but as one who studies them. Although, to be honest, he wasn’t as systematic or diligent, which resulted in dramatically fewer insights.
Had Daniel discovered even one percent of what we have learned, he would have appreciated the common denominator which unlocks the mystery of time: – shaba’ | the promise of seven. There would be three 40-Yowbel epochs between ‘Adam’s expulsion from ‘Eden in year 0 Yah (3968 BCE) and our return to the Garden in year 6000 392Yah (2033 CE), followed by a 1,000-year celebration of Sukah. The intervening dates in years 2000 and 4000 Yah, 1968 BCE and 33 CE, would be distinguished by the confirmation of the Covenant with ‘Abraham and Dowd’s commitment to delivering its prescribed benefits.
It is not as if any of this is hidden. The reason Yahuwdym | Jews were confined in Babylon was painstakingly portrayed in the 25th chapter of Yirma’yah / Jeremiah – which was written well in advance of their arrival. In fact, Yisra’el’s collective and continued ignorance is puzzling because Yahowah announced what He would accomplish in Yaruwshalaim on Mount Mowryah throughout the Towrah, Naby’, wa Mizmowr. And by sending His Son to Dany’el, God provided them with the ability to ascertain the exact day he would enter Yaruwshalaim to fulfill Passover and Matsah en route to Bikuwrym. This affirmed that 40 Yowbel after the Covenant was confirmed with ‘Abraham, God’s Son would serve as the Passover Lamb.
Further, Yahowah had plainly stated how long Yahuwdym would remain in Babel…
“The Word (ha dabar) which, for the benefit of the relationship (‘asher), came to be present with (hayah ‘al) Yirma’yah | Yahowah Uplifts Me | Jeremiah (Yirma’yah) concerning all of the people (‘al kol ‘am) of Yahuwdah | Beloved of Yah | Judah (Yahuwdah)...during the first year (ha shanah ha re’shown) of Nabuwkadne’tstsar | Nebo Protects the Crown | Nebuchadnezzar (la Nabuwkadne’tstsar), king (melek) of Babel | Confounding Integration | Babylon (Babel). (Yirma’yah 25:1)
Beneficially, to show the way to get the most out of life (‘asher), Yirma’yah (Yirma’yah), the prophet (ha naby’), spoke to (dabar) the entire family (‘al kol ‘am) of Yahuwdah (Yahuwdah) and to all of the inhabitants (wa 393‘el kol yashab) of Yaruwshalaim | Source of Guidance on Reconciliation | Jerusalem (Yaruwshalaim), saying (la ‘amar), (Yirma’yah 25:2)
‘From the thirteenth year (min shalowsh ‘esreh shanah) of Yo’shyah | Yahowah Heals (Yo’shyah), son of ‘Amown | Supportive (ben ‘Amown), king of Yahuwdah (melek Yahuwdah), and to this day (wa ‘ad ha yowm ha zeh), for twenty-three years (shalowsh wa ‘esrym shanah), the Word (dabar) of Yahowah (Yahowah) has been with me (hayah la ‘any). I have spoken (wa dabar) to you (‘el ‘atem) early on, repetitively, and persistently conveying the word (shakam wa dabar), but you have not listened (wa lo’ shama’). (Yirma’yah 25:3)
Yahowah (Yahowah) has sent to you (wa shalach ‘el ‘atem) all of His associates, coworkers, and prophets (‘el ‘atem ‘eth kol ‘ebed huw’ ha naby’), sending them from the beginning (shakam wa shalach), but you have not listened (wa lo’ shama’), nor have you so much as extended your ear to hear (wa lo’ natah ‘eth ‘ozen ‘atem la shama’) (Yirma’yah 25:4) them saying (la ‘amar), “Of your own initiative, please return now (shuwb na’), each individual (‘iysh) from going the wrong way (min derek huw’ ha ra’) and from your immoral and improper practices (wa min roa’ ‘atem). Then you can choose to live and remain (wa yashab) upon the earth (‘al ha ‘adamah) which, to enjoy the benefits of the relationship (‘asher), Yahowah (Yahowah) has given to you (nathan la ‘atem) and to your fathers (wa la ‘aby ‘atem) of old (la min ‘owlam) as a restoring witness forevermore (wa ‘ad ‘owlam). (Yirma’yah 25:5)
Therefore (wa), you should not continually chase after (‘al halak ‘achar) other gods (‘elohym ‘acher), serving them (la ‘abad hem), neither bowing down and worshiping them nor speaking for them (la chawah la hem). Do not habitually provoke and grieve Me (wa lo’ ka’as ‘eth ‘any) with the product (ba ma’aseh) of your 394hands (yad ‘atem). Then I will not distress you or trouble you (wa lo’ ra’a’ la ‘atem). (Yirma’yah 25:6)
And yet, you have not heard Me (wa lo’ shama’ ‘el ‘any),” declares (na’um) Yahowah (Yahowah), “so, therefore (la ma’an), you have provoked Me (ka’as ‘any) with the work of your hands (ba ma’aseh yad ‘atem), doing so to your own detriment, bringing misery upon yourselves (la ra’ la ‘atem).” (Yirma’yah 25:7)
“This entire Land (wa kol ha ‘erets ha zo’th) will become (hayah) depopulated and deserted (la charbah), wasting away (la shamah). And because of what they have become (wa ha ‘eleh ‘eth), they will be reduced to servitude (‘abad) by Gowy Melek Babel | the Gentile King of Confusion (gowy melek Babel) for seventy years (sheba’ shanah).”’” (Yirma’yah / Yahowah Lifts Me Up / Jeremiah 25:11)
Having failed as a prophet, the approach Dany’el took to understanding is actually much easier for us today. We have access to vastly superior tools, from interlinears and lexicons to dictionaries and internet search engines. We also benefit from a much broader perspective, now aware of how many of these events played out in our distant past. And while the answer Dany’el sought was clearly articulated, we have a lot less to work out. For him, it was all yet to occur, while for us, only the events of the Time of Israel’s Troubles remain.
By contemplating the genealogies presented in the Towrah, combined with the history of the Yisra’elite kings, it is possible to ascertain when the exit from ‘Eden occurred, when ‘Abraham and Yahowah affirmed the Beryth, the timing of the Yatsa’, and when Dowd unified Yisra’el. From there, it is an easy extrapolation to years 4000 and 6000 Yah.
Using the information presented in this chapter by Gabry’el | God’s Most Confident and Capable, Courageous 395and Combative Man, we can readily determine that the Pesach ‘Ayil was scheduled to walk into Yaruwshalaim four days before Passover in year 4000 Yah, which is 33 CE. But that is just one step along the way. This also means that 2033 coincides with year 6000 Yah, the time of Yahowah’s return with Dowd. Therefore, all one has to do to know the exact moment these much-anticipated events will transpire is to consider the timing of Pesach and Yowm Kipurym within the framework of these Yowbel years.
Looking back in time to 33 CE, Passover was observed beginning at sunset, Thursday, April 3rd on the Julian calendar. The fulfillment of Matsah and Bikuwrym followed, all in year 4000 Yah. And with the timing of the Shabuw’ah Harvest set seven years prior to the Homecoming, the Standing Grain representing the Covenant’s Children, will be withdrawn on May 22nd, a Shabat in 2026, as the Time of Israel’s Troubles enters its initial phase. Also, with the intent of Taruw’ah being manifest before our eyes, we can be assured that this final gleaning of Yahuwdym and Yisra’el will occur on the 1st day of the 7th month, September 23rd, also a Shabat, in year 6000 Yah / 2033. The occasion is just ten days prior to Yowm Kipurym – a Sunday at sundown, 6:22 PM in Yaruwshalaim on the 2nd of October 2033 / year 6000 Yah. Five days later, we will celebrate the Millennial Shabat which will commence on a Shabat at sunset, Friday, October 7th, 2033.
When we are observant and contemplative, we can subtract seven years from the culminating date of the Time of Trouble and know when the initial phase of this anguishing period will transpire – which is how we were able to date the upcoming Shabuw’ah Harvest. So, as we approach the fall of 2026, you’ll be ready for the Harvest and avoid the Troubles that will follow. Hard labor and painful contractions will commence, becoming 396exceedingly difficult beginning in 2030 – which is when the two Witnesses arrive on the first of ‘Abyb.
Returning to the narrative, it appears as if Dany’el wanted to know what issues could be resolved and what battles were worth fighting. To find the answers, he would have to listen to God in the most Godless place on Earth by reading His written Word. It is the same for us today in an equally hostile environment.
“I offered myself (wa nathan ‘eth paneh ‘any – I chose to give myself, placing my entire presence and persona (qal imperfect paragogic he cohortative)) to my Lord, the God (‘adon ‘any ha ‘elohym), to request (la baqash – to search for and to secure, to be responsible in the procurement of information and in the diligence required to properly investigate) either intervention and intercession through communication and contemplation or the desire to be set apart as discriminating (taphilah – either mediation and reasoning developed through the proper assessment if from phalah – to intervene, meditate, and arbitrate, assess, reason, and contemplate, and ta’ab – to desire, or if from palal – to be set apart as special, unique, devoted, and uncommon) while longing for a favorable outcome (wa tachanuwn – desiring sympathy and compassion, mercy and kindness, longing to express genuine love; from ta’ab – to desire and chanan – forgiveness and empathy, loving and merciful generosity) while abstaining from food in coarse common clothing (ba tsowm wa saq) and ashes (‘epher – as being insignificant and worthless).” (Dany’el / My God is Judgmental / Daniel 9:3)
By seizing upon the concluding portion of Dany’el’s statement and removing it from its context, the religious will claim that God favored this man because he fasted. But what the statement actually conveys is that Daniel was religious about his diet. It was a nail in his coffin, not a feather in his cap.
397Also noteworthy, taphilah is the Hebrew word most often mistranslated as “prayer” – a concept that isn’t found in the Towrah. God never instructs anyone to pray to Him. Prayer, most assuredly, is not among the requirements for participation in the Covenant. Prayer is so irrelevant that there is no mention of it in the two tablets Yahowah carved with His own hand. God does not ask us to pray, and that is a profound insight into the relationship.
That said, as an exemplar of Rabbinic Judaism and Roman Christianity, Daniel was likely praying. Even worse, he was addressing God using Satan’s title, my Lord. It is as irritating as it was wrong. But it exists and is repeated to drive this point home – one Dowd will make on God’s behalf.
What Yahowah wants is for us to observe and then respond, listen and then speak. This also means that Paul’s “pray without ceasing” is in complete discord with Yahowah’s instructions, as are the morbidly attired Haredi bobbing their heads against the Western Wall. Further, the “sinner’s prayer” promoted by evangelicals as the basis of one’s salvation isn’t endorsed by God. There is no Divine mandate for beginning or ending a meeting or meal with prayer.
This is not to say that we should not talk to God. ‘Adam did, as did Noach, ‘Abraham, Moseh, and Dowd, as well as all of the prophets. But each of them listened to God first.
Beyond this, it is actually more likely that taphilah | to be discriminating regarding the benefit of being set apart is a compound of ta’ab | to desire and either palah | to be set apart as special and unique, distinct and devoted, distinguished and uncommon or palah – to intervene, meditate, and arbitrate, assess, reason, and contemplate. This known, palal | to think before intervening is the opening verb in the next statement…
398“So I chose to assess the situation and contemplate the implications because I sought a way to intervene that could be justified (wa palal – I wanted to develop the proper understanding of the agreement through open communication before requesting assistance and asking for help, meditating before deciding or adjudicating, wanting to make a sound argument and a proper declaration, cognizant of the circumstances and contingencies, all prior to intervening (hitpael imperfect paragogic he cohortative – independently, of my own recognizance, wholly disassociated from any religious or political influence, consistently aware of the ongoing implications, I chose as a matter of great importance to appreciate how future events would unfold before making any presumptions)) concerning and approaching (la – on behalf of and to draw near) Yahowah (YaHoWaH – an accurate presentation of the name of ‘elowah – God as guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence), my God (‘elohym ‘any). And I expressed my appreciation, acknowledging my familiarity with the attributing influential factors associated with knowing (yadah – I was thankful for the opportunity to know; from yada’ – to know, recognize, acknowledge, and understand and yad – hand and influence).
I said (wa ‘amar), ‘I think that it is vital that You respond (‘ana’ – in response please provide an answer; from na’ – please and ‘anah – to reply and answer), my Lord (‘adon ‘any – my Pillar and Support), the Almighty (ha ‘el), regarding the immensely important, especially intense, courageous, capable, and combative man (ha gadowl – to the most significant contributor and greatly magnified individual with the capacity and fortitude to prevail), who is respected and admired (wa ha yare’ – who is revered for his high status, authority and dignity) for having closely examined and carefully considered (shamar – for exploring and evaluating, observing and studying (qal participle)) the Covenant (ha beryth – the 399family-oriented relationship agreement), and who demonstrates loyal love and devotion (wa ha chesed – who shows affection for the relationship, granting favors, being kind, and providing benefits) to those who appreciate and prefer him (la ‘achab huw’ – for those who love and adore him, like and desire him), as well as for those who approach by observing (wa la shamar – and for those who draw near by exploring and examining) the instructive conditions pertaining to what he has offered and expects in return (mitswah huw’ – his authoritative directions and written instructions which comprise the precepts and terms of what he has established; from my – to consider the who, what, why, where, when, and how of tsawah – appointing and establishing, constituting the message, and enjoining by shouting out instructions and directions regarding what he has commissioned).’” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:4)
If we were to read this at face value, it appears somewhat delusional. Daniel, who was wholly unqualified, was in no position to play mediator between Yahowah and his people. However, if we were to see this as Dany’el seeking a method whereby intervention would be possible, even justified, it is a proposition of an entirely different sort.
Should Daniel have ascertained prior to Gabry’el’s appearance and subsequent revelation, that the Gadowl | Most Qualified, Competent, and Courageous Individual would work with Yahowah to restore the Covenant, then it would have been a brilliant deduction. It took me 22 years of constant study and evaluation to arrive at this conclusion. If Daniel saw it as well, he would have been correct in his assessment of Dowd in that the Messiah’s intervention was vital. Moreover, God’s Son was uniquely observant of and devoted to the Family. It is unquestionably true that those who come to appreciate 400what he accomplished by observing the conditions and benefits of the Covenant are welcomed by Yah.
The fact remains, until this chapter, Dany’el had not mentioned Yahowah’s name. He had consistently referred to God as “my Lord.” He was alone in using the titles Myka’el and Gabry’el. He was overly preoccupied with his personal situation. And until this admission, where he read the answer, he had not been able to comprehend anything he had seen. His is the only book that was partially written in another language, in his case, Aramaic.
Nevertheless, when Daniel 7 through 12 are evaluated using the Dabarym tests for authenticity, they fail and prevail. And this means that while Daniel was not a prophet, he accurately conveyed the words they revealed to him. So, let’s consider him a witness.
As for what follows, Dany’el’s assessment was correct, but that was hardly new. He would have read this in Yirma’yah, Yasha’yah, Howsha’, and throughout Dowd’s Mizmowr…
“We have missed the way (chata’ – we have erred and forfeited the opportunity) and we are guilty of perverse corruptions and distortions (‘awah – of twisting and perverting). We have violated the standard (wa rasa’ – we are especially evil, wicked, and unjust, immoral, unethical, inconsiderate, and invalid) because (wa) we have rebelled (marad – we have resisted and opposed this advice). We have turned away from (wa suwr min – we have rejected and removed) the terms and conditions of Your relationship agreement (mitswah ‘atah – what You are offering and expecting in return) and also from (wa min) Your means to make informed and rational decisions regarding the way to justly resolve disputes (mishpat ‘atah – to exercise good judgment about You).’” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:5)
401Indeed, Daniel was among them – as corrupt and guilty as everyone else. And that is the message conveyed throughout the first six chapters of Daniel and the lingering effect of the subsequent politicization of religion in Babylon. Should someone protest and claim that God would not use a man whose beliefs, testimony, and deeds were opposed to Him, think again. He specifically said that He was using Nebuchadnezzar and that He anointed Cyrus to do as they have done – and both men have earned a trip to She’owl | Hell. Yahowah created evil, and He uses it as He must as a filter for freewill.
Sadly, the religious seldom accept the Towrah | Teaching. They prefer the witness of men – whether through Talmuds or New Testaments. Echoing the sentiments of Yahowah and His prophets, Dany’el admits that he was also part of the problem…
“We have not listened to (wa lo’ shama’ ‘el) Your coworkers (‘ebed ‘atah – Your associates and servants), the prophets (ha naby’), who, to show the way to receive the benefits of the relationship (‘asher), communicated the Word (dabar) in Your name (ba shem ‘atah) to our leaders (melek ‘anachnuw – to our clerics and kings), to our societal, military, and economic elite (sar ‘anachnuw – to our highest-ranking rulers and their subordinates), to our forefathers (‘ab ‘anachnuw), and also to all (wa ‘el kol) the people (‘am) of the Land (ha ‘erets – of the region and Earth).” (Dany’el / My God Judges, Condemns, and Vindicates / Daniel 9:6)
While hopefully more astute, like Dany’el, I am a witness, not a prophet. As such, I am responsible for listening to Yahowah’s prophets and then applying what I learn by sharing their message. When Dany’el admits that he is among those who have not listened to Yahowah’s coworkers and prophets, he is stating that he was still among the lost rather than learned.
402When we consider the wealth of prophetic material Yahowah has provided for us to consider, from Moseh to Mal’aky, God has done His part. By failing to capitalize, Jews have not done theirs. I realize that Christians, Muslims, and Progressives are similarly misled, but it isn’t the same. God did not cut His Covenant with them, liberate them, or address them through their prophets in their language, over the course of one thousand years.
The path to God is as I have presented it, as is the path away from Yahowah…
“Approaching You (la ‘atah) are those who are right (ha tsadaqah – are those who are honest, trustworthy, loyal, and correct, the upright and moral), but for us (wa la ‘anachnuw) is the presence of confusion and shame (bosheth ha paneh – is personal humiliation). It is the same to this day (ka ha yowm ha zeh) for the people of Yahuwdah (la ‘iysh Yahuwdah) and the inhabitants of Yaruwshalaim (wa la yashab Yaruwshalaim), even for all Yisra’el (wa la kol Yisra’el), those who are nearby (ha qarowb) and those who are far away (wa ha rachowq) in all of the places (ba kol ha ‘erets) which You have scattered them (nadach hem sham) due to their disloyalty and their fraudulent claims (ba ma’al hem – their treacherous propensity to lie, overstepping their bounds while acting like they were above it all).
This makes them untrustworthy and unreliable, as well as in violation of the agreement (‘asher ma’al) with You (ba ‘atah). (Dany’el 9:7)
Yahowah (Yahowah), on us (la ‘anachnuw) is the apparent presence (paneh – the face and prevalence) of confusion, humiliation, and shame as a result of our improper attitude (bosheth ha paneh), from our political and religious authorities (melek ‘anachnuw – clerics and kings) to our leaders’ representatives (wa la sar ‘anachnuw – our highest-ranking officials, authorized 403subordinates, and spokesmen), as well as our forefathers (la ‘ab ‘anachnuw), because we have erred, missing the way (‘asher chata’ – because we are guilty and bear the loss, having forfeited the benefits of the agreement) to approach You (la ‘atah).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:8)
There were those who were right, but you’ll notice that Dany’el did not count himself among them. Rather than being correct about Yahowah, he was among the confused. And with the natural tendency to read right past this admission, it was repeated.
Having read the prophets, beginning with Moseh, we know that this had been the case during the Yatsa’ | Exodus and it has remained so, no matter the place or time. Yisra’el has been ma’al | disloyal. God’s people developed a propensity for ma’al | fraudulent claims which would continue in Babylon and thereafter for another thousand years, permeating the Talmud.
This same level of confusion is inherent among Jews on the cusp of Israel’s Troubles and Yahowah’s return. In Israeli politics, there is no separation between synagogue and state or between Progressives and divisive protests. Rabbis are overwhelmingly political and the political are often overtly religious. Of all of the things that have made Benjamin Netanyahu bad for Israel, his willingness to appease and bribe the Haredim for their political support is among the most devastating. That said, liberals like Yair Lapid are far worse for having endorsed the “Two-State Solution” while bringing Israel to the brink of civil war.
By including those dwelling in Jerusalem and Israel in this condemnation, this statement was evidently intended to address today’s inhabitants because Yaruwshalaim was depopulated by Babylon and Yisra’el by Assyria. Having suffered so many centuries of disloyalty and enduring countless fraudulent claims, Yahowah naturally sees His people as untrustworthy and unreliable – even as 404disappointing and disgusting. This problem runs from the top down and includes the secular and the religious.
Dany’el’s next point is true, even though his approach to it was less than desirable…
“According to (la) my Lord and Upright One (‘edown ‘any – my foundation and pillar), our God (‘elohym ‘anachnuw), the merciful (ha rachamym – the compassionate) and forgiving (wa ha rachamym – the one who pardons), indeed (ky), we have rebelled (marad – we have engaged in premeditated opposition) against Him (ba huw’).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:9)
With the irritating repetition of “my Lord,” Dany’el has reconfirmed his rebellion. This title is in opposition to Yahowah’s nature and intent.
God has a plan to pardon His people, and He wants to forgive them. Unfortunately, the likes of those Dany’el represents have chosen to ignore, even reject, what Yahowah and Dowd have done. They have vehemently attacked the Passover Lamb, nullifying the benefit of his sacrifice. They do not even acknowledge Matsah, other than incorporating it into Passover as a missing ingredient. They are clueless regarding Bikuwrym and Shabuw’ah, and they have replaced Taruw’ah with a Babylonian holiday. Perhaps worst of all, they have inverted the purpose of Kipurym, making the Day of Reconciliations a time of affliction and twirling chickens. It is as if they concur with their ancestors and never want to see or hear from Yahowah again.
Making matters worse, they have ignored their Ra’ah, Mashyach, and Zarowa’ – irritating God and traumatizing themselves to no end. Since Moseh, Yahowsha’, Shamuw’el, Dowd, Yasha’yah, Howsha’, Yirma’yah, ‘ElYah, Zakaryah, and Mal’aky, were inspired by God to condemn the Jewish religion, we would be wise to view Yahowah as decidedly anti-religious. While Yahowah is 405merciful and forgiving, He is also discriminating. And He will reject the religious for having rejected Him.
Yisra’el’s political, religious, economic, and military leaders, indeed the nation’s forefathers, bear the blame for this mass rebellion against God. They are the reason women and children suffer, and people are misguided. The very individuals Yisra’elite society has been indoctrinated into respecting, even revered as holy men devoted to God, are the most deserving of scorn and condemnation. The most influential in the sight of men are the least worthy from Yahowah’s perspective.
This is not my opinion or even my interpretation but, instead, Yahowah’s position. He etched it in stone so that we would be aware of it. In the Second of Three Statements written on the First of Two Tablets, Yahowah wrote…
“You should not continue to associate yourself with or engage on behalf of (lo’ ‘asah la ‘atah – you should not make a practice of attending to or doing anything with, you should not act upon or involve yourself with, you should not profit from or celebrate) a religious image or object of worship (pesel), or any (wa kol) visual representation of something (tamunah – likeness, appearance, picture, drawing, painting, or form which depicts or resembles a substitution) which is in the heavens above (‘asher ba ha shamaym min ma’al), which is on the earth below (wa ‘asher ba ha ‘erets min tahath), or which is in the waters (wa ‘asher ba ha maym) beneath the land (min tahath la ha ‘erets). (Shemowth 20:4)
You should not speak about them on your own initiative nor make a practice of bowing down and worshiping them (lo’ chawah la hem – you should not continue to promote their message on your own accord or display their words because such uncoerced and ongoing verbal declarations and announcements will influence you by revealing your allegiance to them on an ongoing basis), 406and you shall not habitually serve them or compel anyone to be passionate about them (wa lo’ ‘abad hem – you should not submit to them or encourage anyone else to do so).
For, indeed (ky), I (‘anky), Yahowah (Yahowah), your God (‘elohy ‘atah), am a fiercely protective, steadfastly loyal, and jealous God (qana’ ‘el – a God who is desirous of exclusivity in a devoted relationship, a God who is passionate and extremely defensive of those He zealously loves), actually counting and reckoning (paqad – literally taking stock of and genuinely recording) the perversity of twisting and distorting (‘awon – the depravity of perverting and manipulating, deviating from the way, the guilt and punishment derived from delusions and depravity, the liability for unfaithfulness and wrongdoing) of the fathers (‘aby) upon the children (‘al ben) concerning (‘al) the third and the fourth generations (silesym wa ‘al ribea’) of those who shun Me because they dislike Me (sane’ ‘any). (Shemowth 20:5)
However (wa), I will genuinely act and actually engage to literally prepare, perform, and produce (‘asah – I will actively effect and appoint, offer and celebrate, and I will demonstrate by doing what is required to deliver on behalf of those who respond) loyal and devoted love, unfailing mercy, unearned favor, and genuine kindness (chesed – actual forgiveness, steadfast and ardent appreciation, a friendly and affectionate relationship, faithfulness and goodness) on behalf of (la’ – to enable the approach of) thousands (‘elephym) who move toward Me and love Me (la ‘ahab ‘any – who form a close and affectionate, familial relationship with Me, coming to know and like Me, who come to prefer Me and find an association with Me desirable) and also (wa – in addition) who approach Me by closely examining and carefully considering (la shamar) My instructions pursuant to what I am offering and My conditions 407regarding what I am expecting (mitswah ‘any – the stipulations which uphold My relationship agreement and mutually binding contract).” (Shemowth / Names / Exodus 20:6)
Yahowah has asked us not to be religious. God is opposed to religious imagery, critical of religious behavior, and antagonistic toward religious services. He is intolerant of the promotion of any message associated with any god by any other name (and that would include Allah, Jehovah, the Lord, Adoni, HaShem, the Eternal One, and Jesus Christ). The reason is straightforward and simple: Yahowah is committed to developing a loving and monogamous relationship with us. It is something He is passionate about which is why He is personally involved in His people’s reconciliation.
Also relevant to what we just read, thousands among billions is only one in a million, culling the audience considerably for the Covenant. Based upon all we have considered in the Towrah, Naby’, wa Mizmowr, it is likely that only one in every thousand Jews living today will return to Yahowah, less than 15,000 among 15,000,000. Gowym will be even less receptive, with one in a million representing fewer than 8,000 among 8,000,000,000.
Foremost among those not listening was the one speaking…
“In addition (wa), we have not listened to (lo’ shama’) Yahowah’s (Yahowah – as directed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah – existence), our God’s (‘elohym ‘anachnuw), voice (ba qowl) by having our steps guided by (la halak ba – walking in) His Towrah | Teaching and Instructions, His Guidance and Directions (Towrah huw’), which, to reveal the benefits of the relationship (‘asher – to show the way to get the most out of life), He provided (nathan – He offered and gave as a gift) in our presence (la paneh ‘anachnuw – 408before us) through the hand (ba yad) of His servants (‘ebed – His associates and coworkers), the prophets (ha naby’).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:10)
This is the reason Yahowah is so frustrated with Yisra’el and Yahuwdah. His Towrah | Guidance was revealed in their presence. His prophets were of their ethnicity and wrote in their language. God prioritized them over all others, speaking directly to them, for them, and with them about them. And nothing has changed in 2,500 years.
As for Dany’el, he held the answer in his hands. He had read it, but he was unable to apply its lessons. In this way, he continues to represent the Haredim – the masters of duplicitous delusion. And having searched Chabad and Christian websites for their explanations of the narratives throughout the first six chapters and the inversion of reality found in the opening statement of the 9th, they still venerate Dany’el’s religiosity. And that’s surprising since the four religious stalwarts I mentioned failed to present their own history accurately, and they could not foretell the future – universally failing the test of a prophet.
It is relevant to know that Yahowah’s towrah | teaching isn’t limited to the first five books which comprise His witness. His towrah | guidance permeates what He revealed through His naby’ | prophets. Everything Yahowah revealed from Bare’syth / Genesis to Mal’aky / Malachi is both prophetic and contains God’s towrah | instructions on how to live a fulfilling life. It all exists so that we might avail ourselves of His mercy and enjoy His love – so that we know how to become adopted into His Covenant Family.
Driving the point home, this remains true for Jews who overwhelmingly prefer their Babylonian Talmud. Their problem runs so deep, they not only lie by claiming it was first given by G-d along with the written Towrah, but they 409also actually refer to this book of rabbinical drool as Torah. Therefore, the witness reported…
“And all (wa kol) of Yisra’el (Yisra’el – Individuals who Strive Against and Oppose God) has passed over (‘abar – has arrogantly meddled, and with intense personal feelings acted upon unjustified opinions of themselves to repeal and transgress) Your Towrah | Teaching and Directions (‘eth Towrah ‘atah – source from which Your instruction and guidance flow) and have turned away (wa suwr – have continually, actually, and demonstrably removed themselves, rejecting and cutting off (qal infinitive)), refusing to listen (la bilty shama’) to the sound of Your voice (ba qowl ‘atah).
As a result (wa), the curse of Allah (‘alah – an incompetent and dishonest oath by which people are harmed when swearing to Allah) will be poured out (nathak – will be brought forth (qal imperfect)) upon us (‘al ‘anachnuw) in addition to (wa) the sworn promise (ha shabuwa’ – the truthful and contractual oath associated with seven and the shabat) which (‘asher) was written (kathab – inscribed using letters and words) in the Towrah (ba Towrah – in the instructions and directions, teaching and guidance) of Moseh (Mosheh – one who draws out), the one working with (‘ebed) the Almighty (ha ‘elohym), because (ky) we have been wrong and have missed the way (chata’ – we have erred and forfeited the opportunity) according to Him (la huw’).” (Dany’el / My God Judges / Daniel 9:11)
Throughout the prophets, the message is the same. They warned Yisra’elites and Yahuwdym that they have brought a curse upon themselves and have estranged themselves from God because they prefer their jaundiced rhetoric to His teaching and guidance. With this assessment indisputable, why do so many Jews remain unaware that Yahowah hates their religion?
410Amazingly, Dany’el has once again included himself among those who are going to be cursed. Why is it then that no one until now has been willing to believe him? Yes, I know, we all fall into the trap of using “we” when addressing some of the irresponsible things “we” humans have done. But when it is pointed out by one of Yahowah’s diligent editors, I make the correction, setting those of us who listen to our God apart from those who do not.
‘Abar foretells of rabbinic malfeasance because the religious have intensely and personally, passionately and arrogantly, meddled where they did not belong by projecting unjustified opinions which have served to repeal and transgress another’s testimony. And in this regard, it is hard to miss that Dany’el was writing in Babel | Babylon about the horrid consequence of the Babylonian Talmud.
In the second half of this pronouncement, we are reminded that the Towrah does more than present the means to engage in a relationship with our Heavenly Father. It also delineates the consequence of ignoring God and choosing to be religious. Yisra’el has been forewarned, and so God’s people are without excuse. Jews have brought this suffering upon themselves. It was not God’s choice.
Should you think that it is unfair for God to consistently criticize Jews for not listening to Him when so many others have been worse, then consider this: there would be no Jews had Yahowah not rescued them. The descendants of ‘Abraham would have died in Egypt, just as there were no survivors among the Philistines after they were conquered and enslaved. They are His people. He ransomed and rescued them. And even before that, ‘Abraham would have been without an heir or inheritance without Yahowah’s intervention.
Moreover, Yahowah revealed Himself to Yisra’el, singling them out as the beneficiaries of His Covenant. And when Yahowah asked the Children of Yisra’el if they were 411in accord with what He had prescribed for them in the Towrah, they shouted out in unison, “We agree.”
Judaism has done far more than just write Yahowah out of the religion. The religious have perverted the intent of His Towrah, corrupted His Beryth, and misrepresented His Miqra’ey, while misappropriating the meaning of the mitswah and mishpat. The words of the rabbis have come to take precedence over the word of God. Judaism is now so restrictive, with its religious laws, kosher rules, and shabat demands, Jews have encumbered themselves with the most burdensome of religions, almost as if they prefer being slaves.
Suffering and death should not be blamed on God. Mankind in general and Jews in particular have brought these things upon ourselves. It is a message which permeates the prophets from Moseh to Mal’aky…
“He confirmed (wa quwm – He took a stand to substantiate) with (‘eth) the words He revealed (dabar huw’), and which He spoke against us (‘asher dabar ‘al ‘anachnuw), in opposition to our judgment regarding our political and religious leaders (wa ‘al shaphat ‘anachnuw), who (‘asher) have ruled over us (shaphat ‘anachnuw – which governed us and shaped our thinking), to bring (la bow’) great (gadowl – tremendous and unmitigated) misery and suffering (ra’ah – disaster and distress, wickedness and harm, calamity and misfortune) upon us (‘al ‘anachnuw) which has not occurred (‘asher lo’ ‘asah) in any other place under (tachath) the whole of the heavens (kol ha shamaym) similar to what has and will occur (ka ‘asher ‘asah) in Yaruwshalaim (ba Yaruwshalaim).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:12)
No people have been offered as much. No people have suffered as much.
“Consistent with what is written (ka ‘asher kathab) in the Towrah (ba Towrah – source of teaching and 412instructions, directions and guidance) of Moseh (Mosheh), all of this suffering and misfortune (kol ‘eth ra’ah ha zo’th – the entirety of this misery with so many negative consequences) has and will continue to come upon us (bow’ ‘al ‘anachnuw). And yet, we neither request nor seek (wa lo’ chalah – we have made no effort to acquire the favor of nor do we grieve over the loss of) the presence of Yahowah, our God (‘eth paneh Yahowah ‘elohym ‘anachnuw). We cannot return because we have not changed (lo’ shuwb – without turning around we cannot be restored) from (min) our depravity and corruptions (‘aown / ‘awon ‘anachnuw – the wickedness we have committed by twisting, bending, perverting, and distorting), and that is because it affects our ability to be prudent and thus understand (wa la sakal – forestalls the insights needed to succeed and prosper, capitalizing upon) the breadth of Your support and verifications of Your reliability (ba ‘emeth ‘atah – Your affirmations of what is correct and dependable).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:13)
I told you so.
Dany’el is admitting that he and his people still suffer from the Babylonian Effect – the politicization of religious depravity. Jews had estranged themselves. They were enslaved and suffered as a consequence of ignoring the Towrah.
It is pretty basic: in His Towrah, Yahowah introduced Himself to humankind so that we would have the opportunity to know Him. He explained how we could enjoy a personal relationship with Him. His instructions were beneficial, His teaching was enlightening, His offer remains wonderful, His promises are trustworthy, and His plan is generous. By listening to His Guidance and following His Directions, we become His children and live in His Home. Through the Towrah, we become immortal, perfected, adopted, empowered, and enriched. All we have to do is accept. It is easier than believing and more reliable.
413God does not require much in return. He asked us to get to know Him, to listen to Him, and to consider His directions. He encourages us to respect Him, embrace His name, and trust Him. All of which are beneficial for everyone involved. But, like a good Father, Yahowah explains the consequence of rejecting His Guidance.
“And so (wa), Yahowah (Yahowah – the proper pronunciation of YaHoWaH, our ‘elowah – God as directed in His ToWRaH – teaching regarding His HaYaH – existence and our ShaLoWM – restoration) was vigilant and He did not hesitate (shaqad – having paid attention He was prepared) to bring these difficult circumstances and consequences upon us (‘al ha ra’ah wa bow’ hy’ ‘al ‘anachnuw). Obviously (ky – it is clear), Yahowah (Yahowah), our God (‘elohym ‘anachnuw), is right (tsadyq – is correct in His judgment, fair, just, and moral) in everything He does (‘al kol ma’aseh huw’ – in all He accomplishes and works on) as well as what He acts upon when engaging for the benefit of the relationship (‘asher ‘asah). Therefore, it is we who have not listened to Him speaking to us (wa lo’ shama’ ba qowl huw’).” (Dany’el / My God is Judgmental / Daniel 9:14)
Even in this, Dany’el was modeling today’s rabbis. He was reading the words but not applying them. He knew that he was part of the problem but did not seem to appreciate that it was his religious and political indoctrination in Babylonian lore that had been the cause.
This is an early example of tough love, of recognizing that sometimes we must allow our children to suffer the consequences of their choices. Often, it is the only way young people learn and grow. When we overcome, it is how we develop character and confidence.
There is a debilitating misconception that love is never hurtful or hateful. And yet, for love to be real, for it to be beneficial, the loving must not only disdain that which is 414contrary to the interests of those they love, they must allow them to learn from the consequence of not being appropriately discriminating.
Yahowah was and remains right. Since his people decided religion is better for them than the Covenant relationship, they must be allowed to suffer the consequence of that choice. He could not rescue them from the Holocaust because they were no longer His but, instead, belonged to the rabbis. Had He intervened to preclude their suffering, the rabbis would have taken credit and justified the unjustifiable. So, while the opportunity to learn from their mistakes was forfeited, it was at least available and not misappropriated.
“And so then (wa ‘atah), wanting to provide the benefits of the relationship (‘asher), our God (‘elohym ‘anachnuw) descended to withdraw (yatsa’ – brought out) your people (‘eth ‘am ‘atah) from the land of subjugation by religious and political tyrants (min ‘erets Mitsraym – from the crucibles of oppression) with a firm and unyielding, resolute and uncompromising hand (ba yad chazaq – with an unrelenting influence). Since then (wa), you have made (‘asah – you have engaged and acted to create) a reputation for yourself (la ‘atah shem) which is similar to today (ka ha yowm ha zeh). We have been mistaken and have gone astray (chata’ – we have erred and forfeited the opportunity), having condemned ourselves (rasha’ – and are guilty of being wrong).” (Dany’el / My God Judges / Daniel 9:15)
This is an interesting transition in pronouns in mid-sentence from first person, “our,” to second person, “your.” It indicates that Dany’el didn’t make the connection between Mitsraym and Babel. As proof of this, he claims that “you” have made a reputation for “yourselves,” excluding himself from their company. And yet, it was actually the reputation that he had made for himself that became the driving force of Daniel 1 through 6 and is still 415bleeding into these pages. While we know that the Children of Yisra’el were often mistaken along the way, the problem has grown worse, not better.
God did the right thing, removing His children from harm’s way in Mitsraym and again from Babel. But once liberated from religion, delivered from politics, and safely home, He let them go. And ever since, they have made a reputation for themselves. Having returned to religion, and having yearned to be political, they have not just gone astray – they have marched right back into a crucible of their own design. Judaism has condemned Jews.
“O my Lord and Upright One (‘edown ‘any), in a manner consistent with all of what makes You worthy and right (ka kol tsadaqah ‘atah – according to Your righteousness and integrity, and by Your will to acquit and vindicate), please turn away from and withhold (shuwb na’) Your frustration (‘aph ‘atah – Your resentment and disappointment) and Your extreme displeasure and antagonism (wa chemah ‘atah – Your righteous indignation) toward Your city, Jerusalem (min ‘iyr ‘atah Yaruwshalaim), Your Set-Apart Mountain (har qodesh har), even (ky) toward our offenses (ba chete’ ‘anachnuw – our propensity to be wrong and go astray) and toward our guilt (wa ba cheta’ ‘anachnuw), in addition to the misdeeds and religious perversity (wa ba ‘awon) of our ancestors (‘ab ‘anachnuw).
Yaruwshalaim | Jerusalem (Yaruwshalaim) and Your people (wa ‘am ‘atah – those who are related to You) are dishonored and seen as contemptible (la cherphah – are shameful and have become a disgrace) among all who surround us (la kol sabyb ‘anachnuw).” (Dany’el / God Judges / Daniel 9:16)
Dany’el had this backward. Jews would have to discard their antagonism toward Yahowah before God could relinquish His against them. They had picked this ill-416fated fight by being religious, and God could not and would not accept them as they were and remain. Should this be your first time through this material, I suspect that you are surprised to find the pretext to the only prophecy pertaining to the future arrival of a Messiah so vehemently anti-religious.
“This being so (wa ‘atah), our God (‘elohym ‘anachnuw), please choose to listen and be receptive (shama’ – let it be Your will to hear, being favorably inclined (qal imperative)) to this plea for intercession and desire to be set apart as discriminating (‘el taphilah – either prayer for intervention or a longing to be distinct and different, uncommon and unique; from ta’ab – to desire and palah – being set apart as special) made by Your servant (‘ebed ‘atah – of Your coworker and associate), along with his longing for mercy and compassion (wa ‘el tachanuwn huw’ – his desire for kindness, favoritism, love, and generosity; from ta’ab – to desire and chanan – forgiveness and empathy, loving and merciful generosity), for the light of Your presence to shine (wa ‘owr paneh ‘atah) upon Your Set-Apart people and place (‘al miqdash ‘atah – over that which is distinctly different; from my – to consider the implications of qadash – to be set apart as special, separated from that which is common, prepared, dedicated, and devoted) for the benefit of the deserted (la ma’an shamem – for the destitute and devastated), my Lord and Upright One (‘edown ‘any).” (Dany’el / God Judges / Daniel 9:17)
God does not, and should not, listen to us – not until we have listened to Him. Daniel’s approach epitomizes religion, and it is wrong – as is referring to our ‘ab | Father as the ‘adown | lord.
The Hebrew lexicons which seek to define words based on their roots typically link taphilah with “palal – to intervene and intercede, to meditate and arbitrate.” And while that’s fine, it then becomes inappropriate to render 417taphilah as “prayer” everywhere else. This known, taphilah is more likely derived from “phalah – to be distinct, separated, and distinguished, set apart and uncommon.” Phalah also speaks of “being marked out as special,” even of “being discriminating.”
“My God (‘elohym ‘any), incline Your ear (natah ‘ozen ‘atah) and listen (wa shama’). Open Your eyes (paqach ‘any ‘atah) and see (wa ra’ah) our ravaged and deserted places (shamem ‘anachnuw) and the city (wa ha ‘iyr) which (‘asher), invite and call out (qara’ – summons and proclaims) in Your name (shem ‘atah ‘ah hy’ – in Your proper and personal designation to her). However (ky), not upon our righteousness (‘al tsadaqah ‘anachnuw – not on our merit) because we would fail (naphal – we are inferior and without standing). Our plea for mercy (tachanuwn ‘anachnuw – our desire for favoritism and kindness) in Your presence (la paneh ‘atah – upon Your appearance) is indeed because of (ky ‘al) Your compassion (rachamym ‘atah – Your love and devotion) which is great (ha rab).” (Dany’el / My God Judges, Condemns, and Vindicates / Daniel 9:18)
There was absolutely nothing Yahowah wanted to hear from this man other than for him to shut up. There was nothing Daniel could show Him that He wanted to see. Moreover, he was wrong. The opposite was true. Yisra’el was deserted because Jews did not invite Yahowah into their lives, did not welcome Him into their hearts, or even mention His name.
Mercy is afforded to those who are attuned to Yahowah’s testimony as documented in His Towrah, Naby’, wa Mizmowr. He guides those who do so through the Beryth and Miqra’ey Beyth. That is where we find His chanan and racham.
We are invited to be with God when we listen, and we are rejected when we choose to express our desires to Him 418instead. The religious have nothing to say which is going to impress God and a great deal that is sure to irritate Him.
There are times when I’m hesitant to translate a passage, and this is one of those occasions. The previous three times through this material, I ignored it, moving past it to the next statement. I am uncomfortable with Dany’el’s incessant pleading and praise. Further, his use of ‘adony | my Lord is inappropriate and disturbing. Nonetheless, here is what he said next…
“My Lord (‘adony – my master), I want You to listen (shama’ – as an expression of my will, I choose for You to hear what I want to say (qal imperative paragogic he cohortative, energic second-person masculine singular – I am emphatic and emotional in choosing for You to urgently listen)). My Lord (‘adony – my master), I am emphatic and emotional in my appeal for You to choose to remove the guilt and forgive (salach – it is my desire for You to want to pardon the wrongdoing (qal imperative paragogic he cohortative energic)). My Lord (‘adony – my master), on my own initiative, I believe that it is imperative that You pay attention and become responsive (qashab – You need to choose to be alert and attentive to what I want (hifil imperative paragogic he cohortative energic)) because it is necessary for You to act (wa ‘asah – You must engage (qal imperative)). Do not remain inactive, be hesitant, or delay (‘al ‘achar – do not linger, hesitate, or wait any longer by doing something different (piel imperfect jussive)) for Your own sake (la ma’an ‘atah – on Your account), O my God (‘elohym ‘any). Because indeed (ky), Your name (shem ‘atah) is called (qara’ – he is summoned and invited, proclaimed and welcomed, read and recited) over and above Your city (‘al ‘iyr ‘atah) and upon Your people (wa ‘al ‘am ‘atah).” (Dany’el / My God is Judgmental / Daniel 9:19)
We may both be witnesses, but we are not seeing things the same way. I have never and will never say 419something like this to Yahowah. So, at least I’m glad that it was written in the cohortative, thereby expressing Dany’el’s agenda and mindset, not anyone else’s, especially not Yahowah’s.
Begging for forgiveness is a complete waste of time. Why antagonize God by pleading with Him to provide what His Son has already established? Listen to Yahowah and act accordingly. He will do the rest.
For the most part, the previous 18 statements have been annoying. It simply serves as a confession, proving my assessment correct. Not a word of this, the entire 9th chapter of Dany’el up to this point, has been prophetic. While the scene is going to change, it will not be until the 24th verse that we will hear Gabry’el | God’s Most Confident and Capable Man reveal what is going to occur.
Babel | Being with the Lord was a 70-year timeout for bad behavior. Serving as a harbinger of She’owl, we find affirmation of what life will be like for those who continue to reject Yahowah and His Towrah | Guidance.
For those of you who are reading these words and are contemplating your fate as we near the Time of Trouble, you can move in one of three directions: 1) Toward Shamaym | Heaven by accepting the conditions of the Beryth | Covenant relationship with Yah, which is possible for those who observe His Towrah | Teaching and attend His Miqra’ey | Invitations to be Called Out and Meet. 2) Go back to Babylon by remaining religious. Or 3) Go nowhere, opting to ignore the voices on both sides.
But what you cannot do – at least apart from being ignorant and irrational – is to claim that what follows somehow justifies the creation of a new religion at odds 420with the Towrah and in opposition to the very people God is trying to save.
The preceding portion of Dany’el was not couched in mystery, although it was doused in religion. It was not conveyed using metaphors or symbols but, instead, religious verbiage. It was a confession, easily corroborated, because Dany’el was ad-libbing what Moseh had written.
While Daniel’s religiosity was irritating, his Towrah citations are important because, apart from this preamble, the following prophecy is universally misappropriated and misunderstood. There are two days being predicted and they both pertain to fulfilling the Miqra’ey – days which are meaningful when celebrated in accordance with the Towrah’s Guidance. But since with the Towrah and its Covenant there can be no quarter for religion, should a rabbi or priest ascertain the timing, they would lose their faith in the process.
This compound prophecy was conveyed by Dowd in the guise of Gabry’el | God’s Most Competent and Courageous Man in 538 BCE – 570 years prior to its fulfillment in 33 CE and 2,570 years before he would engage to honor his portion of what he proclaimed regarding year 6000 Yah in 2033. The timeline for God’s redemptive plan hinges upon what the Messiah accomplished on Passover, UnYeasted Bread, and Firstborn Children in Year 4000 Yah, and what we accomplish to enhance the Harvests pertaining to the Promise of Sevens and Trumpets in advance of the Kipurym Homecoming and Sukah’s return to Eden forty Yowbel thereafter.
“Then (wa) while I was continually communicating and conversing (‘owd ‘any dabar – when I was speaking well beyond normal expectations) and pondering questions and contemplating their answers (wa palal – making inquiries regarding the justification to persuade, 421seeking intervention, arbitration, and intercession, and also thinking about and foreseeing future contingencies and events) and (wa) expressing my gratitude over casting aside (yadah – my appreciation and thankfulness for being able to admit and toss away) my pardonable offenses for having missed the way (chata’ah ‘any – the consequence and punishment for me having gone astray, my iniquity and guilt associated with me wandering away from the right path) and the consequence of my people, Yisra’el, going astray (wa chata’ah ‘am ‘any Yisra’el – in addition to the wrongful nature of my lost family, those who strive against and struggle with God), presenting (naphal – settling upon, offering, and letting go of) my earnest request for favor and mercy (tachinah – my petition and plea for kind, generous, and favorable treatment) to approach the presence of (la paneh – to come face-to-face with) Yahowah (YaHoWaH – an accurate presentation of the name of ‘elowah – God as guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence), my God (‘elohy), on (‘al – upon) the set-apart (qodesh – separating, consecrating, preparing, dedicating, purifying and cleansing) mountain (har) of my God (‘elohy),…” (Dany’el / God is My Means to Decide between Vindication and Condemnation / Daniel 9:20)
The words change but not the message and that is because Dany’el continually struggled with the realization that his role was to listen to what the prophets conveyed and then speak about it. But at least, this was better. There were no “my Lords” and no demands. And on the positive side, he spoke of searching for answers and of a desire to approach Yahowah, knowing that he had missed the way. Unfortunately, begging for forgiveness was only making matters worse. He needed to stop requesting mercy and start walking along the path Yahowah had provided to receive it. It is there for the accepting, not requesting.
422As we approach Dowd’s appearance and a return to prophetic relevance, it becomes apparent that Dany’el wanted to benefit from what he was witnessing. Having lived a life foreshadowing the ill effects of the rabbis, he needed what God and His Messiah would be providing through Chag Matsah. If our reporter is in Heaven, it is proof positive that the Towrah can pardon the offense of having missed the way.
Having studied Yahowah’s Towrah | Teaching, we know that the Zarowa’s fulfillment of the Miqra’ of Pesach opens the door to eternal life by resolving the consequence of religion which is death. And we realize that as a result of what the Messiah did for us during the Miqra’ of Matsah the penalty associated with religious guilt, which is separation from God, is resolved because Dowd took it all to She’owl for us. Bikuwrym is the result and benefit, enabling God’s children to live in our Father’s Home, as part of His Family, as He enriches and enlightens, emancipates and empowers us.
Dany’el was struggling to leave Babylon – something God requires of us. This chapter in his life, when compared to the others, shows that he was trying, but there was still too much babel in him.
The dichotomy between Dany’el and the likes of Moseh and Dowd or Yirma’yah and Yasha’yah is enormous. His rhetoric is so divergent, it warrants full and constant disclosure. For example, we are encouraged to read the Towrah and Prophets, listen to what Yahowah has to say, think about it, and then share what we have learned. Dany’el was incessantly conveying his preferences – which were either irrelevant or inappropriate.
I ask very little of God while Dany’el is constantly pleading for one thing and then another. I recognize that Yahowah is here to help, and I know that He wants us to understand so that we can more effectively share His 423message with His people. His prime objective is to reconcile the relationship with Yisra’el and to be merciful. There is no need to ask God to do what He is already committed to accomplishing. Moreover, Yahowah has told us exactly how we need to respond if we want to benefit. The first step in that direction is to be the antithesis of what we have witnessed thus far in this man.
Nonetheless, Daniel became the recipient of these prophecies because he was willing to read the revelations of the prophets and at least attempt to apply some of the lessons. He was also chosen because he could write, and because of where he was at the time. In all likelihood, there wasn’t a better option. This was, however, enough for us to become beneficiaries. We have been offered a brief history of the world, the story of the succession of Beasts, and now we are about to witness the final solution to mankind’s errant ways.
“While I was continuing to communicate (wa ‘owd ‘any dabar) with the intent of being distinct and different (‘el taphilah – either praying or desirous of being set apart as discriminating and special; from ta’ab – to desire and palah – pleading to be set apart as special while thinking about the future, asking questions and contemplating the answers), then (wa) Gabry’el | God’s Most Confident and Capable, Courageous and Combative Man (wa Gabry’el – the Almighty’s exceptionally proficient and powerful defender, an exemplar of character who confirms the truth; a compound of ‘any – I am a geber – particularly strong and resolute human being, a capable and authorized individual, an aggressive and confrontational person, a fighter, defender, and protector who prevails with ‘el – Almighty God; from gabar – exceptionally proficient, absolutely assured, resolutely corroborative, tremendously powerful and great), the individual (ha ‘iysh – the person and human being who is a champion, supporter, and defender), whom, 424to reveal the proper path (‘asher – to show the benefits of the relationship), I had seen (ra’ah – I had witnessed, observed, perceived, inspected, and considered) during the initial prophetic revelation (ba ha chazown ba ha tachilah – in the earlier communication during the beginning vision of the future which I was able to see), offering advice while preoccupied with the destruction of existing militaries (ya’aph ba ya’aph – providing counsel and addressing the purpose of what is occurring while appearing wearied, or perhaps exasperated, moving swiftly between battles, from ya’ats – to offer advice and counsel regarding the purpose of the plan), reached out to make contact with me (naga’ ‘el ‘any – extended himself to reach out to me) around the time of the evening (ka ‘eth ‘ereb – according to the right season of the year at sunset) offering (minchah – apportionment which is bestowed as a present or gift).” (Dany’el / My God is Judgmental / Daniel 9:21)
Thank God for Dowd. The conversation is looking up.
Previously in Dany’el 8:15 and 16, a geber | confident and confrontational man heralded the arrival of Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable Person. The final Witness, whom Dany’el introduces as Myka’el | One Who is Truthful and Right About God at the beginning of the 12th chapter, qara’ | summoned Dowd, knowing that he plays the starring role in this drama. Upon his arrival, and after encouraging Dany’el to start thinking, and to stand up and be accountable, the Messiah and King told the forlorn reporter to listen to his Sar | Representative and Herald, Yada, the one who will make this known so that you will understand.
Previously speaking to Dany’el about Yada (Daniel 8:19), Dowd said, “As the final Witness to the eternal testimony regarding the restoring appointments of the Mow’ed, he will literally and without interruption convey the way to receive the benefits of the 425relationship, doing so in the distant future, during the last days, and on behalf of the indignant remnant.”
Therefore, not only was Gabry’el correctly identified as an ‘iysh | man, a human male, the identity of ‘el | God’s gibowr is readily verified as Dowd from Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9 where, as a son, he was given to us. The Messiah is the lone individual who fits this title. And there is no better news than this, because apart from Yahowah, no one in Heaven or on Earth knew as much about the events he was going to address. He had predicted them, describing them in excruciating detail, as he, himself, would fulfill them. Moreover, with Dany’el failing to meet the standard of a prophet, Dowd was the most prolific of them – the gold standard.
In addition, Dowd, as the only man destined to live three lives spanning these eras, was the ideal prophet to provide the sweeping prophetic history of the world. And now, he was in Babel | Babylon, the birthplace of the Beast – the realm from which Satan would arise. Whether as a prophet or from his perch in Shamaym, he would witness Babylon become Persia and then watch as the Greeks prevailed over Babylon’s conquerors. The bestiality of Rome was no secret to him as he would experience their savage brutality when they whipped and then crucified him. Additionally, Dowd would have been familiar with his mortal enemy – the final Beast – the Roman Catholic Church – which grew out of Imperial Rome to obfuscate the heroic sacrifices he would make on behalf of his people while persecuting them for centuries thereafter.
No one has been better at providing advice. And no one surpassed Dowd in the destruction of Yisra’el’s foes, having never lost a battle. Further, Dowd’s greatest gift to his people was offering to endure the long night in the darkness of She’owl during Matsah. As their redeemer, he was the foremost expert regarding what he would soon reveal.
426The evidence is overwhelming that this ‘iysh | individual man, this gibowr of ‘el | competent and courageous combatant of God, was His Son, our Messiah and King Dowd | David. The alternative, that he was an archangel, is contrary to the evidence which has been provided as well as in conflict with God’s previous and future interactions with humankind.
Now that Gabry’el | God’s Most Competent Man, Dowd, has returned, we are told that he has been busy ya’aph ba ya’aph | offering advice while preoccupied with the destruction of existing militaries. Dowd has been providing counsel regarding the purpose of what is occurring while appearing wearied, or perhaps exasperated, moving swiftly between battles. Yisra’el’s great defender is doing what he does best.
Dowd will be exceedingly valuable at this time. His first order of business will be to anoint the Kaporeth | Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant so that Yahowah can reconcile His relationship with Yisra’el. Then he will go to war, defending Yahuwdym from those who have come to annihilate them. All the while, he will commence his role as our Shepherd and Counselor, Messiah and King.
The realization that the Mashyach | Messiah has been called away from these essential responsibilities during Yowm Kipurym to provide insights relative to his fulfillment of Chag Matsah as the mashach | anointed Messiah is poetic, prophetic, and profound. Considering the source of these insights, labeling “Jesus,” the “Christ,” rather than acknowledging Dowd, is short-sighted to the point of being blind. Dowd | David is the preeminent Prophet and Counselor, Shepherd and Lamb, Messiah and Son of God, and even now Priest and King. He is the exemplar of the Covenant, the embodiment of Yisra’el, and the Zarowa’ who fulfilled the Invitations to Meet with God.
427Before we move on, there is no ka ‘eth ‘ereb minchah | evening offering prescribed in the Towrah. However, in his defense, there is an evening apportionment that is bestowed as a gift – Chag Matsah | the Feast of UnYeasted Bread, beginning with Pesach | Passover – which is celebrated at sundown. Addressing Passover in this instance is both relevant and helpful considering what follows.
God works through curious souls because He realizes that those who question everything find resolution. They not only grow in understanding but, also, in confidence. I suspect that Yahowah chose His final messenger with this in mind, recognizing His son’s appreciation of how yada’ would result in byn…
“So (wa) he made the connections to encourage understanding (byn – he pursued comprehension by being discriminating and perceptive to facilitate discernment through careful consideration). He spoke with me (wa dabar ‘im ‘any – then he communicated using words to me), and he said (wa ‘amar), ‘Dany’el (Dany’el – My God Judges, Condemns, and Vindicates; from dyn – to decide with ‘el – God), now at this time (‘atah – so then in the sequence of things), I have come forth (yatsa’ – I have descended to extend) to provide insights and instruction which, if you are circumspect and considerate, will promote (la sakal ‘atah – to teach the prudent to pay attention, and you through contemplation to gain) understanding through discernment (bynah – enabling comprehension through diligence and reason).’” (Dany’el / God Judges / Daniel 9:22)
Gabry’el | God’s Most Competent and Confrontational Man, Dowd | the Beloved, is the living embodiment of byn | understanding the dabar | word of God. This is his ‘atah | time when he will lead his people on yet another yatsa’ | exodus – this time out of what Babel | Being Confused by the Lord. By listening to Dowd throughout his Mizmowr and Mashal, we revel in his sakal | insights and grow in 428bynah | understanding. This is why Yahowah so loved his son and then supported his desire to fulfill these roles so that we could learn from his example.
It is wonderful to see God’s Son, our Messiah and King, educate us through Dany’el. This is especially encouraging when we consider the difference between Dowd’s intellect and standing with God relative to our own. It’s time to pay attention and listen intently with an open mind.
The last time they met, Dany’el had done a face-plant. So now, by asking him to think it through, Dowd forestalled more of the same…
“In the beginning, the sickening and inappropriate (ba tachilah – initially, while common to the point of being profane; from chalah – to be a sorrowful and sickening beggar, a wearisome infected and diseased malcontent and chalal – to profane and desecrate through common and defiling religious practices) matter (dabar – the message and word) of your desire for favors and your pleading for mercy (tachanuwn ‘atah – your longing for love and compassion, your constant petitions; from a compound of ta’ab | to desire and ta’ah | to point out, with chanan | mercy, kindness, forgiveness, and favor) was brought up (yatsa’ – it came out).
So, I, myself, have returned (wa ‘any bow’ – therefore, I have arrived, having come) to conspicuously report an informative announcement and make this known (la nagad – to provide the message in a straightforward fashion, making this declaration) because (ky) you are so needy (chamadowth ‘atah – you delight in and value such things).
Therefore (wa), you will want to be considerate and strive to understand, being diligent and systematic in your evaluation (byn – by choosing to be perceptive, discerning, and discriminating, you will comprehend (qal 429imperative)) of this message (ba ha dabar – through this statement), choosing to make the connections needed to comprehend (wa byn – by being perceptive and circumspect to understand (hifil imperative)), what is being revealed (ba ha mar’eh – what is being witnessed).” (Dany’el / My God Judges / Daniel 9:23)
While an accurate assessment, this was a slap in the face to a man who needed it. With all of his pleading, Dany’el had become especially irritating. As I expected while reading through this, God does not want us to beg Him to do as He has already promised or to request what He will never provide. We cannot go wrong when listening to God and are often wrong when pleading with Him.
As a compound word based upon chalah | to be a sickening and sorrowful beggar, a wearisome and diseased malcontent, tachilah presents Daniel as we have cast him. Frankly, it was obvious – which was the point and the reason for Dowd’s astute assessment.
Moreover, since tachilah is also shaded by chalal, which addresses the commonality and profanity of religious and political corruption, Dany’el is exactly as I had surmised. He is a harbinger of politicized religion and is being used as a foil to expose and condemn the emergence and spread of the weeds we know as Rabbinic Judaism and Roman Christianity.
After listening to him, I want to thank our Messiah for confirming that this radically different interpretation of Daniel is accurate. Never once during the nearly 2,600 years which have transpired since the book was written, has anyone dared to present this man from this perspective. And now that we are here, and have done so, boldly sharing Yahowah’s disdain for religion and politics, we find God’s Anointed affirming these perceptions.
The narrative found within the first six chapters of Daniel is annoying, while at the same time symbolically 430presenting the disgusting consequence of religious and political indoctrination. The stench is debilitating to mankind and irritating to God. Therefore, the opening chapters serve as an exposé on why God hates Babylon and why men and women must leave its toxic influence to be with Him.
Try as he might to distance himself from this horrible stain on his soul and stigma on his life, Dany’el was still plagued by his childhood programming and by being indoctrinated at the height of Babylon’s deplorable culture. It did not matter what he ate or said, because he had swallowed the poison and it had sickened him. His contribution to this story is that he could write. Beyond that, he is the embodiment of all that is wrong with Babel, of associating with the Lord, and of integrating religion and politics. Dany’el is a spawn of the Beast and represents the emergence of Judaism and Christianity.
The pronouncement, ‘any bow’ | I, myself, have come, having returned, affirms that the man being identified as Gabry’el has been here previously and that we should be able to readily identify him. Further, he plays an essential role in helping us understand God’s message.
Now that Gabry’el has been properly introduced, and the purpose of this revelation has been established, it is time to consider the prophecy. What follows provides the blueprint for redemption and adoption, reconciliation and everlasting life. And you’ll note that it is focused upon “your people” and “your city” – Yahuwdym and Yaruwshalaim.
When we consider what Dowd revealed, it is nothing less than majestic in its scope. No less a man could have conveyed as much…
“The many promises associated with Shabuw’ah and the Shabat, along with the vows pertaining to the things Seven represents, even seventy sevens 431(shabuwa’ym shib’iym) are determined and decreed (chathak – He has planned, divided out, and marked) on behalf of your people, the extended family (‘al ‘am ‘atah – for your kin) and upon your set-apart city and its distinctly uncommon inhabitants (wa ‘al ‘iyr qodesh ‘atah – over your special and separated population center, including those who are separated and distinct and, thus, not religious) to bring an end to the religious rebellion, eliminating the revolting communal defiance and contrarian views (la kalah ha pesha’ – for the abolition and complete purging of revolting opposition, of pervasive transgression, of being at fault, guilty of being contrarians who have defected from the relationship), to affix the signature which seals up the guilt associated with having missed the way, precluding ever being seen as wrong again (wa la chatham chata’owth – to affirming the authenticity of that which constrains and prevents everything associated with going astray), to provide reconciliation for religious error, purging the perverse corruptions and removing the twisted perversions (wa la kaphar ‘awon – to cover over by atoning, ransoming and annulling distortions), to arrive with and bring that which is eternally right, always correct, forever accurate and honest, thereby attaining everlasting deliverance and vindication (wa la bow’ tsedeq ‘owlam – to come with ongoing and perpetual justice and deliverance, innocence and prosperity, returning to pursue enduring righteousness), to provide a personal seal and signature to revelation, confirming and completing these communications (wa la chatham chazown wa naby’ – to confirm and complete the visual communication from God about the future) and to prophecy (wa naby’ – to the prophet), while also anointing the Most Set Apart (wa la mashach qodesh qodesh – and to consecrate, dedicate, and prepare the separated, special, distinctly different, and uniquely uncommon).” (Dany’el / My God Judges, Condemns, and Vindicates / Daniel 9:24)
432This is Dowd’s story, explaining why he was willing and able to fulfill the decree Yahowah had made to his people through the seven Miqra’ey | Invitations. With his arrival in Yaruwshalaim in advance of Passover and then again on Kipurym, he has and will bring an end to the consequence of religious rebellion and contrarian views. With him serving as our lamb and our shepherd, God’s people will never stray again. With our souls perfected and the relationship reconciled on these occasions, Yisra’el will be right forevermore, becoming eternally vindicated. This is the summation of all prophecy. And the fruition of God’s promises occurs as Dowd anoints the Mercy Seat of the Covenant within the Qodesh Qodesh of God’s Home on Yowm Kipurym so that we can celebrate Sukah.
This pronouncement is for Dany’el’s people and extended family and, thus, for Jews. It is for his city, which is Jerusalem. Best of all, he is committing to eliminate the guilt of his people, removing it from them.
The reason that I included, but did not lead with, the customary “seventy sevens” rendering of shabuwa’ym shib’iym in this context is that we were not given a starting point, and when one is provided in the next statement, the timeline becomes 7 plus 62 weeks. Also, since Dowd is the focus of all seven Miqra’ey, including being the first to be enriched and empowered by Shabuw’ah, shabuwa’ym shib’iym is communicating something considerably more important.
This insight is fostered by the recognition that Shabuw’ah is possible because Dowd fulfilled Pesach | Passover, Matsah | UnYeasted Bread, and Bikuwrym | Firstborn Children. It is a reward for the Covenant Family and the Children of God who will be the first to follow the Bakowr | Firstborn Home. As such, Shabuw’ah is a celebration of the relationship at a time when leaving the planet is the safest plan.
433As the fourth of seven Invitations to be Called Out and Meet, the reference to Shabuw’ah is the middle Miqra’, prominently positioned between the beginning and the end. It is symbolized by green in the middle of the rainbow – itself a sign of the Covenant. Green depicts healthy growth and is indicative of a productive harvest.
With Shabuw’ah established as the preeminent Harvest for the beneficiaries of Chag Matsah, withdrawing God’s Family prior to the Time of Ya’aqob’s Troubles, understanding its position within Yahowah’s overall plan becomes instrumental to appreciating how we got to this place and where we go from here.
Therefore, when we account for the generations from ‘Adam to ‘Abraham, we find that forty Yowbel, or 2,000 years, separate them. Additionally, another forty Yowbel transpire from ‘Abraham’s experience on Mount Mowryah to Dowd’s Passover sacrifice in this same place. And that means that a pattern has emerged.
Two thousand years after ‘Adam’s and Chawah’s expulsion from the Garden of ‘Eden, God confirmed the Covenant in 1968 BCE (year 2000 Yah) with ‘Abraham, Sarah, and Yitschaq for us to return home. Then to provide the resulting rewards, including immortality, perfection, adoption, enrichment, and empowerment, God’s attention would return to Mowryah forty Yowbel thereafter in year 4000 Yah (33 CE), with His Son walking out of the pages of the Towrah to fulfill Passover, UnYeasted Bread, and Firstborn Children thereby enabling the future harvest associated with the Promise of Seven.
But that would not be the end of God’s story. Forty Yowbel later, on the Miqra’ of Kipurym in year 6000 Yah (Sunset on October 2nd, 2033), Father and Son will return to reconcile their relationship with Yisra’el and Yahuwdym, restoring the Covenant by integrating the Towrah into our lives. Five days later as we celebrate 434Sukah | Shelters, we will enjoy the final thousand years of human history on this planet – camping out with our Heavenly Father, and brother, through year 7000 Yah.
Along these lines, the seven days of Creation, the depiction of the Shabat, the number of Invitations to be Called Out and Meet and, indeed, the history of humankind estranged from God, even the number of Ruwach devoted to facilitating the book you are reading are predicated upon the formula of six plus one equates to seven. As such, nearly six thousand years of man separated from Yahowah have transpired since humankind was expelled from ‘Eden. We are, therefore, on the cusp of the one-thousand-year celebration of living together again. In this light, shabuwa’ym shib’iym defines the passage of time from the beginning to the conclusion of God’s story.
Also interesting, when we add the 7 weeks of years between the edict to return and the restoration of Yaruwshalaim, to the 62 weeks of years between that time and the fulfillment of the first four Miqra’ey, we are left 1 week of years shy of 70. Since that 7-year difference is attributed to the Time of Trouble, the inference is that nothing of merit occurred between year 4000 Yah in 33 CE when the first four Miqra’ey were fulfilled and year 5993 Yah in 2026 – seven years prior to Yah’s return and the year of the Shabuw’ah Harvest (on May 22nd).
Considering all that he said would be accomplished, by offering these numbers and describing the results, Dowd is directing us to his arrival to fulfill Chag Matsah, to the timing of the Shabuw’ah Harvest, and to his return on Yowm Kipurym. He wants his people to be aware of how different the last seven years will be compared to everything else they have previously endured. And from this perspective, by providing the date he will fulfill Chag Matsah and then jumping ahead 1,993 years to the 7 years preceding his return to fulfill Yowm Kipurym, he is bypassing the era of the rabbis and the Church Age. It 435suggests that they are counter to the objectives which have been delineated or superfluous to them. And this realization precludes the proposition of a different Messiah and competing testimonials from being part of God’s plan.
Since Dowd will go on to present the exact day and year he will arrive to begin fulfilling the first three Mow’ed Miqra’ey – Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym – there are aspects of these Invitations to Meet which are germane to the prophecy. By fulfilling Passover and UnYeasted Bread, God’s children become immortal and are perfected, thereby forever resolving the consequence of pesha’, chata’ah, and ‘awon, while ushering in an ‘owlam celebration of everything which is tsedeq. Therefore, this statement from Dowd was spoken to unfurl the entire canvas of time and the towrah. It is God’s tapestry from the first strand to the final knot.
From the perspective of time, shabuwa’ym shib’iym is seventy sevens, or potentially, 70 x 7 = 490 prophetic years. Elsewhere, when Dany’el wants to convey a week of seven days, he spells it out just that way. For example, in Dany’el 10:2, the prophet reveals that he was in mourning for “three weeks of days.”
It isn’t until Dowd’s next statement that he pinpoints the exact day in the Yowbel year of 4000 Yah when the first three Mow’ed Miqra’ey would be, and now have been, fulfilled. From there, we can readily deduce the day of the Shabuw’ah Harvest and also surmise the moment of Yahowah’s and Dowd’s return on Yowm Kipurym in year 6000 Yah, right to the minute, hour, day, and year.
We can also turn back the clock 40 Yowbel from year 4000 Yah to ascertain when the Beryth | Covenant was ratified between Yahowah, ‘Abraham, Sarah, and Yitschaq. Another 40 Yowbel back in time takes us to the day ‘Adam and Chawah were exiled from the Garden, 436establishing the year Yahowah’s 7,000-year calendar began to unfold.
It is also interesting to travel in time to the midway point between ‘Adam and ‘Abraham – 20 Yowbel from each – because we arrive at Noach’s birth in advance of the flood. Similarly, by splitting the difference between ‘Abraham and Dowd’s sacrifice as the Pesach ‘Ayil, we are directed to the year the Cornerstone was laid in year 3000 Yah and commemorated in the 89th Mizmowr – Dowd’s Song.
There are some interesting subtleties associated with chathak | determined and decreed which we should consider because it is a precise computation of time. God has a plan. It has been marked out for us in the Towrah wa Naby’. It will play out on His schedule – on the very days He has determined.
Time, from Yah’s perspective, is divided and segmented, with one event separated from the next by an exacting measure. And God is resolute in His resolve to see His plan through. There will be no hesitation, equivocation, or delay.
Also relevant, since the dates of the Mow’ed are determined every year, with Passover, UnYeasted Bread, and Firstborn Children celebrated on the 14th, 15th, and 16th days of the first month, we should expect that Dowd’s revelation will lead us directly to Pesach in the 80th Yowbel Shanah | Year of 4000 Yah. As such, God assuredly knows when and where He is going to fulfill His promises. And since He provided us with the means to determine these dates, we are privy to what He knows.
There is no justification or excuse for the random dating Maimonides thrust upon an ignorant and unsuspecting audience. Here in the late summer of 2024, as we approach Yowm Kipurym and Sukah, it is year 5991 Yah – with just 9 years remaining before Yahowah’s return 437on the Day of Reconciliations in year 6000 Yah – sunset in Jerusalem, 6:22 PM local time, on October 2nd, 2033.
The Rambam was wrong on all accounts. Creation began 14 billion years ago, not in 3759 BCE as he claimed. Further, the expulsion from Gan ‘Eden, demarking year 0 Yah, transpired in 3968 BCE. A new year begins on the 1st of ‘Abyb, in the Spring, not when the Babylonians observed Rosh Hashanah. But since the rabbi was more impressed with his own calculations than the genealogies established in the Towrah for this purpose, his Sanctification of the Moon scheme has led Jews astray for over 800 years.
When Yahowah inspires one of His prophets to say ‘am ‘anah | for your people, He is almost always addressing Yisra’el and Yahuwdym. Not only is this affirmed by the constant references to ‘am throughout the Towrah, ‘am also means “family.” Therefore, the plan Yahowah is unfurling would be designed in support of the Covenant He established with Yisra’el beginning with ‘Abraham and Sarah.
Yahowah’s focus is on Yaruwshalaim | the Source of Guidance on Reconciliation. The ‘iyr qodesh | set-apart city, therefore, not only denotes the location where these prophecies would be fulfilled but, also, for whom. It is the most qodesh | set-apart place on Earth. It is in Jerusalem that Yahowah made it possible for us to be separated from the pesha’, chata’ah, and ‘awon of man and be tsedeq regarding Him.
Qodesh is among the most revealing and least understood terms in the Hebrew lexicon. It means “to be set apart.” It affirms that God wants us to be like Him, distinct from the ways of man and, thus, uncommon. So, when we consider the two most pervasive and popular human agencies, to be qodesh means that we should not be religious or political. To be set apart unto Yahowah is to be separated from such things.
438Everything that is important to Yahowah is qodesh, including the Ruwach Qodesh | Set-Apart Spirit. Yisra’el, Yahuwdah, Yaruwshalaim, and Mowryah are qodesh, as are Yahowah’s name, His Towrah, Beryth, Miqra’ey, and Shabat, including His Ben | Son and ‘Am | Family.
Within the third iteration of Yahowah’s Home (fourth including the Tent of the Witness), there will be a Qodesh Qodesh | Most Set-Apart Place. It will model the location where Yahowah was seen and heard above the Ark of the Covenant. And it will be here that Dowd will mashach | anoint the Kaporeth | Mercy Seat as the first order of business upon his return on Yowm Kipurym, doing so within the Beyth | Home he and his Father will erect with their words.
Each of these things is separate and distinct from the common aspects of the human experience. And while they are all unique and special to God, the most set apart are the Spirit, His Son, and the place within His Home devoted to the Reconciliation of His Family.
Therefore, when theologians mistranslate Yahowah’s revelation using religious terminology like “holy,” the faithful are played for fools. They are stupefied into believing that religion is the cure rather than the disease. In truth, She’owl | Hell is set apart from God while Shamaym | Heaven is set apart from religion.
Since this prophecy was so comprehensive in scope, it is important to recognize that the fulfillments of the first four Mow’edym by God’s Son in year 4000 Yah laid the foundation for this result. They provide the means to life and redemption which underlying the second chance that is being afforded God’s people during Reconciliations. And that makes Kipurym the final opportunity to receive the benefits of the Covenant for Yahuwdym. Through Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym, it is now possible to prepare the Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah Harvests in anticipation of the 439ultimate Homecoming upon Yahowah’s and Dowd’s return.
That is what we are revealing through Taruw’ah – which is now among the two most important Miqra’ey. While there is no Kipurym without the prior fulfillments of Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym, Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah provide the attendees for the Day of Reconciliations upon the Messiah’s return. And this is why our message will begin to resonate with Yahuwdym in Yisra’el as never before.
Yahowah has promised to restore His relationship with His people on this day, revealing that there will be a family reunion in Jerusalem including thousands of Yisra’elites. And for that to transpire, each must cease being political and religious and become sufficiently aware and accepting of what God is offering and requesting to welcome Father and Son in the way that has been foretold. If not, Satan prevails, and Project Humanity is foreclosed.
The reason I was chosen and these books have been written, the reason that there are scores of prophecies pertaining to what you are reading, is that we must garner Yisra’el’s attention for Yahowah’s plan to prevail. The idea of Father and Son returning to an entirely hostile crowd – which is all that currently exists among the religious and political in Israel – is not only heartbreaking but Earth-shattering.
With this rendezvous with our destiny less than a decade away, everything is hanging in the balance. Fortunately, we do not have to win the popular vote and will likely lose it by a factor of more than a 1,000 to 1 among Yahuwdym and in excess of a 1,000,000 to 1 with Gowym. Should we, when we, achieve this level of “success,” worldwide, with at least 7,000 Yisra’elites and Yahuwdym in Yaruwshalaim amidst the carnage of troubles during the early evening hours of October 2nd, 4402033 – Yowm Kipurym in year 6000 Yah – God and His People prevail. Sukah and Happily-Ever-After will follow. Dowd’s magnificent prophecy will be fulfilled. Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah will produce the audience Father and Son so rightfully deserve on Kipurym. God will return and His Family will greet Him joyfully.
That is a reasonable summation of Gabry’el’s / Dowd’s profoundly important revelation. Prophecy ends, the Witness begins, and everything is made right according to God’s plan.
And so, now you know why I was the first to recognize that Gabry’el is Dowd, that he is the prophet, not Dany’el. You know why I was the first to realize that Dowd is the Messiah and Son of God, the Zarowa’, who fulfilled the Miqra’ey to make all of this possible. You know why I was the first to reveal the proper pronunciation of Yahowah’s name and then disclose His timeline – including the moment He will return. You know why I was the first to delineate the five conditions and benefits of the Covenant, revealing what God was offering and requesting from us. You know why I was the first to properly define the purpose of the Mow’edym and then ascribe the benefits to the Beryth, revealing how one enables the other. You know why Yahowah assigned seven Ruwach to enable this result and then spoke so vociferously about what we would achieve together. While I’m nothing more than a Witness, a Voice calling out to God’s people, the King’s Herald, a Choter, Nakry, and the final Zarowa’ for Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah such that there is a Homecoming party, Kipurym is fast approaching, and Father and Son intend to celebrate their Family Reunion. And since you are reading these words, I expect that you will be there with us.
The message Dowd conveyed to us through Daniel must be shared for it to resonate and draw a sufficient audience to fulfill the Day of Reconciliations. Therefore, the six resolutions on Dowd’s list will be understood and 441appreciated as they play out over time, commencing in year 4000 Yah with Chag Matsah and concluding during Kipurym and Sukah in 6000 Yah.
This means that the one being anointed a fourth time is Dowd. And the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant will now represent his seat of honor before his people because he has unified them again, bringing them together with Yahowah. Yes, all of this is Dowd’s doing. I am nothing more than his Herald, letting you know who he is and what he has achieved.
Now that the Messiah has revealed when, for whom, and where he is going to act pursuant to this prophecy, let’s consider why he is committed to accomplishing this list of six things. The first is la kalah ha pesha’ | to bring an end to the revolting religious rebellion. According to God, Yisra’elites have engaged in communal insubordination and mass defection, showing solidarity in their contrarian positions. And while this means that Judaism has been toxic to Jews, it is no more or less deadly than Christianity or Islam, Socialist Secular Humanism or Communism. Wrong comes in many flavors.
What’s worse: replacing the Shabat with Sunday or imposing a thousand meaningless restrictions upon the seventh day, supplanting the Towrah with the New Testament or the Talmud, believing that “Jesus Christ” is the Son of God and the Messiah or repressing the realization that Dowd served as the Passover Lamb and that he is the Son of God and Messiah?
What’s worse: believing that there is no God or establishing the Lord as God? Do you think Yahowah is bothered more by those who claim He does not exist or by those who confuse Him for Satan? What do you suppose He finds more offensive: being identified with a star or the image of a dead god on a stick? Is the Jewish corruption of 442Pesach and Matsah worse than the Christian opposition to them?
Kalah reveals that Yahowah is promising to put an end to the communal defiance and religious rebellion of His people – eliminating these things. For God to enjoy our company, for the Earth to become like ‘Eden, and for Heaven to be joyful, there must be a place and time where the choice to rebel and to be revolting no longer exists.
In this regard, pesha’ serves to demonstrate a crucial aspect of human nature that must be resolved by the Messiah. It is “punishment which fits the crime,” especially in association with “institutional, societal, and national guilt born of rebellion.” This axiom undergirds most justice systems: commit a crime, do the time. Consequence and responsibility are the underpinnings of morality. And what is true in the here and now is also viable in the hereafter, although the consequences are more enduring. Yahowah is fair, so there will be recompense. Those who have misled His people, harming them, will be held accountable. Therefore, Yahowah’s return on Yowm Kipurym to celebrate Sukah will be more than a Day of Reconciliations and time to Camp Out, because 45 days of Judgment will follow – thereby bringing an end to religious rebellion.
The second statement of purpose has been and will continue to be fulfilled in increments. It began with the Towrah serving as the la chatam chata’ah | signed document which seals up the guilt associated with being wrong and missing the way. Through the benefits of the Covenant and by acting to fulfill Passover, UnYeasted Bread, and Firstborn Children, Father and Son have attested to the authenticity of the Towrah. And specifically, Dowd’s nepesh | incorporeal soul, once free of his basar | corporeal body, was laden with our guilt, enabling him to carry it with him into She’owl. He left it there during Matsah, never to be seen again. The removal of our guilt is 443the most amazing part of this wonderful prophecy – one we should accept and cherish.
However, as was the case with the first of these six statements of purpose, while the groundwork was laid and the remedy was provided to remove the persistent encroachment of religion and politics in Yisra’el in year 4000 Yah with the fulfillment of the first four Miqra’ey, this prophecy will be fulfilled in stages with the final act occurring on the Day of Reconciliations in year 6000 Yah so that we can Camp Out together forevermore. That is when Yahowah will place His Towrah inside of the Covenant’s children while writing His name on our hearts.
Chata’ah is typically translated as “sin” when it is more correctly rendered as “guilt.” And since it is derived from chata’, it is the result of having “missed the way” and “going astray.” To be chata’ah is to be “misled” and “wrong” about God. As such, chata’ah is caused by religion – the lone institution responsible for mass deception regarding the Almighty.
This brings us to the third statement of purpose, one which also directs our attention to Yowm Kipurym in year 6000 Yah. Dowd promised la kaphar ‘awon | to provide reconciliation for the perverse distortions associated with religious corruptions. Relative to Yisra’el, kaphar | restoration of the relationship is the prime objective. This is the verb that explains the purpose of the Day of Reconciliations. Kaphar also sits at the heart of the Kaporeth | Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant. And both the Mercy Seat and this Miqra’ are irrevocably linked to the Son’s return with his Father.
The Covenant was broken by Yisra’el, so for God’s people to return to fellowship, the relationship must be reconciled – which is to be made harmonious again. The wrongs will have to be pardoned, and either atoned for or annulled.
444The interesting thing about Kipurym is that like the Taruw’ah Gleaning of Ripe Olives immediately preceding it on the 1st day of the 7th month of the 6000th year, the Mow’ed Homecoming is with Yahuwdym and Yisra’el. This is when the final Reconciliations occur for God’s People as they are reunited with one another and with Yahowah. A remnant will acknowledge Yahowah, accept Dowd, and embrace the Miqra’ey and Beryth at long last.
Therefore, Yowm Kipurym meets all of the previous criteria: it will occur on a predetermined date, it is for God’s people, it will materialize in Jerusalem, it will bring an end to religious rebellion, and it is the day Yahowah will place His towrah | guidance and signature within His people such that they will never again go astray or wander away from Him. And this means that Dowd is speaking of his arrival as Messiah and King.
Yisra’el broke the Beryth by promoting “‘awon – perverse corruptions” of the truth. They went from right to wrong, liberated to servitude, enriched to impoverished, life to death, vindicated to condemned. ‘Awon depicts a precipitous fall because there is nothing more damaging to our relationship with God than trafficking in that which is inaccurate and untrustworthy. Far worse than ignoring Yahowah’s testimony is corrupting and perverting it, bending and twisting it, because doing so conceals the truth and provides false hope.
If you open a lexicon to kaphar, the first thing you are likely to read would be “to make atonement.” But that is a religious term, meaning “to make reparation to atone for sin.” As noted earlier, God has no interest in us begging for forgiveness or suffering for our guilt because He and His Son have already facilitated our redemption and reconciliation – rendering us innocent and ending the prolonged divorce. Our guilt is long gone. And without evidence against us, we are acquitted of all charges.
445There is a secondary connotation to kaphar which begins to make sense when viewed in association with the work of the Ruwach Qodesh. On four occasions, including the Miqra’ of Kipurym (also Matsah, Taruw’ah, and Sukah), we are invited to approach the maternal manifestation of Yah’s light – the Set-Apart Spirit. Her intent is to “kaphar – cover us” in a Garment of Light.
In this way, kaphar is similar to being anointed, which also means “to coat or cover.” This correlation is significant because Dowd | David, as the exemplar of the Covenant, was anointed both with oil and by the Ruwach, symbolically demonstrating what God has planned for His children.
In addition, during these Mow’edym, ‘ishah speaks of the maternal manifestation of God’s fiery light. This is significant because fire transforms decomposing organic matter into radiant light and energy. This is indicative of our transformation from flawed and mortal corporeal beings stuck in the ordinary flow of time to perfected and eternal, incorporeal souls thriving in the seventh dimension.
Moving to the fourth of six prophetic promises offered in association with seventy sevens, the Messiah stands ready to correct the consequence of pesha’, chata’ah, and ‘awon by la bow’ tsedeq ‘owlam | arriving with and bringing that which is eternally right, correct, accurate, and honest, thereby attaining everlasting vindication. Now that the relationship has been reconciled, our Heavenly Father and His Son want to surround us with that which is accurate and true, honest and reliable. They intend for our relationship to be perfect and enduring. And for this to occur, our Father is committed to writing His Towrah | Guidance inside of us. We will have perfect and unencumbered access to the truth forevermore.
446As we move past the first three promises to the fourth, we transition from Dowd righting wrongs to wanting us to be right. Having rid the world of religion, he and his Father are celebrating our perfection. Having returned to ‘Eden, all is good again between God and man.
The fifth statement of purpose is one that the religious can neither fathom nor accept. There were only three prophets after this pronouncement – Yow’el, Zakaryah, and Mal’aky. Therefore, Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable and Confident Individual revealed that all of this would la chatam chazown wa naby’ | provide a personal seal and signature to the documentation and authenticity which curtails the flow of communication from God through the prophets.
This is one of many reasons why Yahowah never refers to His Nakry and Choter, Dowd’s Basar and Zarowa’, as anything more than an ‘Edah | Witness, and never as a Naby’ | Prophet. Enough has been said and plenty has been proven to garner everyone’s undivided attention and motivate God’s People to come Home.
Should you be curious, there is very little if anything useful or new in the Book of Revelation. The opening chapters denouncing the demonic ekklesia / churches, including the synagogue of Satan, were scribed by John to denounce Paul. From that point, the parts which are reliable are paraphrases of the actual prophets such as Yasha’yah, Yirma’yah, and Zakaryah. Unfortunately, the rest of Revelation is heavily tainted by Ezekiel’s fanciful tales of Satanic doom, such that it, like the rest of the New Testament, fails Yahowah’s Towrah test regarding His inspiration. Sadly, there are some 38 citations from Ezekiel in Revelations – any one of which would be sufficient to condemn the book. Further, should “John” have been the author, he remained horribly confused by Daniel and was unable to distinguish between the actual Mashyach and the Christian counterfeit. To his credit, however, he not only 447knew that Paul was in bed with the Devil, he realized that it was long past time that God’s People come out of Babel.
Returning to the books that I would rely upon, the continuous flow of future insights from Yahowah through His prophets, began with Moseh circa 1447 BCE and concluded 1,000 years thereafter with Mal’aky in 447 BCE. There would be no more. Nothing more was needed. All that remained was the explanation.
This understood, Father and Son were not done fulfilling prophecy. They would act in year 4000 Yah to enable the promises relative to the first three Miqra’ey and then again in year 6000 Yah to engender the benefits of the final three Mow’ed. And in between, they would support the Harvest of Shabuw’ah to keep the Covenant Family out of the Time of Israel’s Troubles. In so doing, they will have provided the final seal attesting to the validity of their witness.
The sixth provision is intriguing. Gabry’el | God’s Most Effective Man and His Anointed said, “wa la mashach qodesh qodesh – and to anoint the Most Set Apart.” He was speaking of himself and of the Mercy Seat within Yahowah’s Home. Mashach conveys the idea of “dedicating a person or object for service, setting him or it apart through the process of anointing.” To “anoint” is “to apply a small amount of olive oil or anointing oil or a smattering of symbolic blood with the fingers.” For example, the most set-apart object in the most set-apart place within Yahowah’s Home is the Kaporeth | Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant in the Qodesh Qodesh of the Beyth.
Olive oil is symbolic in its own right. It served as the purest source of illumination in the ancient world. Light conveys Yahowah’s timeless nature, His energy, and the enlightenment He provides. Therefore, to be anointed in olive oil is to be covered in Yahowah’s Spirit of Light. This 448symbolism suggests that the Anointed will manifest Yahowah’s nature to enlighten us.
Olive oil was also rubbed on wounds to promote healing, a metaphor for salvation. It was an important part of a healthy diet, consistent with the nurturing nature of the Set-Apart Spirit. Olive oil was used throughout the Miqra’ey harvests. It was poured over fine grain, representing saved souls, and either sent aloft by way of a wave offering or fire. This provided a visual picture of what happens to us when we are anointed by the Set-Apart Spirit.
Also, when it comes to la mashach qodesh qodesh, it is helpful to know that Messiah is from Mashyach, a derivative of mashach | to anoint. So, if we were to consider the man most set apart unto Yahowah, the man most anointed by Yahowah, the man who is irrefutably ha Mashyach | the Messiah, our attention is drawn to Dowd | David.
And since it is an essential insight, it bears repeating because there is a place that is also Qodesh Qodesh | Most Set Apart – and that is the innermost chamber of Yahowah’s Beyth | Home for the Beryth | Family. This is the location of the Kaporeth | Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant. And as we discovered when analyzing the opening chapters of Zakaryah, when ha Mashyach Dowd returns, his first order of business will be to anoint the Mercy Seat with a smattering of blood, honoring the Towrah’s prescription for reconciliation during Yowm Kipurym.
As interesting insights regarding this picture, the bull and goat from whom the blood of restored life will come to anoint the Mercy Seat represent the two Witnesses as Yada is the Bull and ‘ElYah the Goat. Also, this is why Yahowah said that Dowd had “blood on his hands” when speaking of building the first Covenant Home.
449According to Yahowah, the most qodesh of the Miqra’ey is actually Chag Matsah. Inclusive of Pesach and Bikuwrym, it was also the most difficult and painful to fulfill. It would necessitate Dowd, after serving as the Lamb, allowing his soul to be laden with our guilt prior to being sent to the place of separation from Yahowah. Matsah is the redeeming sacrifice when our guilt is qodesh | set apart from us, never to be seen or considered again.
Throughout the most Qodesh Miqra’, the Ruwach Qodesh | Set-Apart Spirit serves as the prime facilitator, conveying Dowd’s nepesh to and from She’owl. Anointing him again, She brings Dowd’s soul back Home to Heaven and to his Father. These aspects of qodesh | being set apart being manifested during the fulfillment of Chag Matsah all warrant the dual application of qodesh qodesh.
Also relevant, Kipurym is qodesh, as is Dowd who will also be fulfilling it. And therefore, collectively, they are the qodesh qodesh | the most set apart. This will be especially so upon Dowd’s return. During Kipurym, the Mashyach will reestablish and restore Yahowah’s Home and Family with his words, placing the Beyth | Home above the current location of the original Ark of the Covenant. Then Dowd will enter the Qodesh Qodesh and mashach | anoint the Kaporeth | Mercy Seat, facilitating the Towrah’s promise to restore Yahowah’s Family.
This will be the King’s crowning achievement. He will fulfill the final chathak | decree he made on behalf of God’s people, doing so within his city. Poetically, profoundly, and prophetically, this will all occur in concert with shabuwa’ym shib’iym | the promise of a second enriching and empowering, emancipating and enlightening Shabuw’ah, one for the original beneficiaries of Chag Matsah and the second for tomorrow’s attendees at Kipurym.
450This realization, while written years ago, finally dawned on me yesterday. Most of the attendees during the Kipurym Homecoming will be accompanying Dowd, not waiting for him. The Covenant members who were harvested during Shabuw’ah and gleaned on Taruw’ah will make the journey from Heaven to Earth’s ‘Eden alongside our Shepherd, celebrating the restoration of the Covenant and of life on this beautiful blue and green planet bathed in the sun’s light.
Every promise Yahowah has made to Yisra’el through the seven Miqra’ey will be fulfilled as God’s reunified Family stands beside the King as he rids the Earth of Yisra’el’s foes. Simultaneously, his Father will restore the planet so that we can Sukah | Camp Out together. The seven days of Shelters will then lead us into the final Shabat – the seventh millennium. Chag Matsah and Kipurym will work in harmony to produce the ultimate Shabuw’ah | Promise of the Shabat as Yisra’elites are emancipated, enriched, empowered, and enlightened – the vow of seven sevens fulfilled again.
In this way, everything qodesh will be tsedeq | right again, including the ‘Am of Yisra’el, Yahuwdah and Yaruwshalaim, occurring ‘al Mowryah with the restoration of the Beyth for the Beryth through the Towrah and Miqra’ey so that we can enjoy the Shabat.
Therefore, the most set-apart individual, the man most frequently anointed, is returning to anoint the qodesh Kaporeth in the only qodesh qodesh place on Earth during the qodesh Miqra’ of Kipurym. That is too many qodesh to ignore. Dowd’s fulfillment of Chag Matsah with its wealth of qodesh designations in year 4000 Yah is what will enable the celebration of the Miqra’ of Kipurym with the Mashyach in year 6000 Yah.
Relative to the idea of being qodesh in this setting, there were three amazing references in the 89th Mizmowr – 451with the entire Psalm written to affirm that the mashach qodesh qodesh is God’s beloved Son, our returning Shepherd and Savior, Messiah and King, the Zarowa’, Dowd | David. In addition, this is also a retelling of 2nd Shamuw’el 7.
Before we move on to the next statement, I’d like to explain where we have just been. Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable and Courageous Man said…
“The many promises associated with Shabuw’ah and the Shabat, along with the vows pertaining to the things Seven represents, even seventy sevens (shabuwa’ym shib’iym), are determined and decreed, divided out and planned (chathak) on behalf of your people, the extended family (‘al ‘am ‘atah), and upon your set-apart city and its distinctly uncommon inhabitants (wa ‘al ‘iyr qodesh ‘atah) to bring an end to the religious rebellion, eliminating the revolting communal defiance and contrarian views (la kalah ha pesha’), to affix the signature which seals up the guilt associated with having missed the way, precluding ever being wrong again (wa la chatham chata’owth), to provide reconciliation for religious error, purging the perverse corruptions and twisted perversions (wa la kaphar ‘awon), to arrive with and bring that which is eternally right, always correct, forever accurate and honest, thereby attaining everlasting deliverance and vindication (wa la bow’ tsedeq ‘owlam), to provide a personal seal and signature to revelation, confirming and completing these communications (wa la chatham chazown wa naby’), and to prophecy (wa naby’ – to the prophet), while also anointing the Most Set Apart (wa la mashach qodesh qodesh).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:24)
This is Dowd’s story, explaining why he was empowered and enriched, enlightened and enabled to fulfill the decree Yahowah had made to his people through the seven Miqra’ey | Invitations to be Called Out. With his 452arrival in Yaruwshalaim during Chag Matsah and again on Yowm Kipurym, he will bring an end to death and guilt, religious rebellion and contrarian views. With him serving as our lamb and shepherd, God’s people will never stray again. With the relationship reconciled on these occasions, Yisra’el will be right forevermore, always correct and thus eternally vindicated. This is the summation of all prophecy.
After the fulfillment of Pesach and Matsah leading to Bikuwrym to make Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah possible, the fruition of God’s promises transpires the moment Dowd anoints the Mercy Seat of the Covenant within the Qodesh Qodesh of God’s Home on Yowm Kipurym to usher in Sukah in the Yowbel year of 6000 Yah. It is just one sentence, and yet, it is the blueprint for reconciliation and everlasting life.
Moving on, I suspect that you will be as surprised as I was by what follows…
“Therefore (wa), know (yada’ – it is beneficial for you to be aware by coming to possess the information required to recognize (qal imperfect jussive)) and gain the insights to understand (wa sakal – realizing that the best option is for you to be prudent after learning, succeeding and prospering by being attentive, properly educated, intelligent, and wise, perceiving (hifil imperfect jussive)) that from (min) the going forth of the word (mowtsa’ dabar – the stage being set to begin the process in accord with the message) to return to restore (shuwb – to bring back to its original state), rebuilding (wa la banah – and reestablishing), Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim – the Source of Teaching and Guidance on Reconciliation) until the restoring testimony and eternal witness (‘ad – up to, as far as, for an extension of time to become victorious and receive the spoils evidenced by the witness) of the Son of the Sovereign who is conspicuously making this known, and who is providing the leadership and counsel (nagyd – of the one who has officially obtained the status of being 453properly appointed, and who has expounded upon, announced, and proclaimed the message) of the Mashyach | the anointed Messiah (mashyach – the one who is set apart, anointed, and prepared to serve as authorized) are seven sevens, and thus seven promises and fulfilled vows (shabuwa’ym shiba’ah – contractual oaths fulfilled in harmony with the promises of Shabuw’ah over seven periods of seven weeks).
Therefore (wa), in sixty-two weeks (shabuwa’ym sheshym wa shanaym – based upon the promise of seven, in sixty and two weeks), she will be restored (shuwb – she will return and recover), and rebuilt to reestablish and fortify (wa banah – she will develop) the way to grow and expand (rachob – opening the way by expanding where people can congregate; from rachab – to grow larger and expand) by being diligent and decisive (wa charuwts – by becoming sharper, more determined, increasingly judgmental, separated and defensive) in a troubled time of oppression (wa ba tsowq ha ‘ets – during a period of anguishing subjugation, restrictions, constraints, and persecution, being harassed and pushed into a corner; from tsuwq – to constrain and oppress).” (Daniel / Daniel 9:25)
Gabry’el | God’s Most Confident and Capable, Courageous and Combative Man, the Almighty’s exceptionally proficient and powerful defender, the exemplar of character who confirms the truth, the particularly strong and resolute person who is aggressive and confrontational, the fighter who prevails with Almighty God, also known as Dowd, prefaced his prophecy with yada’ and shakal. That is to say, by prudently processing this information, we will gain the insights needed to understand. As a diligent Defender and thoughtful Savior, Dowd is the thinking man’s prophet. So, to be on the same page with the Messiah, we should linger on this page with him for a while.
454He is predicting that there will be a public decree issued regarding the liberation of Yahuwdym | Jews from Babel | Babylon where religion is commingled with politics to confuse. Therefore, since this is the second of three yatsa’ | departures, it is worth considering the similarity between this and the decree to leave Mitsraym | the Crucibles of Religious and Political Oppression during Pesach. This is because Yahowah introduced Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym, even Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah to physically liberate the Children of Yisra’el from religious and political oppression. The process would continue with Yahowah explaining the Miqra’ey to Moseh within His Towrah | Guidance, which was likely received during Shabuw’ah. This ultimately led to God’s people coming home by entering the Promised Land.
The proclamation Dowd is currently issuing is similar. This time, Yahuwdym will be liberated from religious and political subjugation in Babel – the birthplace of the Beast which would evolve from Babylon to Persia, and through Greece to Imperial Rome, and ultimately to the Roman Catholic Church. Not only would they be physically freed, but Yahuwdym would also be able to rebuild Yaruwshalaim | the Source of Guidance on Reconciliation and the City of Dowd. And, of course, there would be bookends, with Imperial Rome destroying what was rebuilt following this decree.
Then after the passage of the specified time, Dowd would return to his city to serve his people by fulfilling Pesach and Matsah leading to Bikuwrym such that Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah become possible. In so doing, the nepesh | souls of Covenant Members would be allowed to come home, to survive the tyranny of Roman politics, the subjugation of the Roman Catholic religion, and finally, the terror of Islamic terrorism.
Nearly 40 Yowbel after Dowd’s arrival as the Zarowa’, we are cultivating the seeds which will become 455the Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah Harvests, devoted to calling a remnant of Yisra’el and Yahuwdah home, back to the Promised Land, to their Messiah, and to Yahowah. This grand reunion will occur during Dowd’s final return on Kipurym | Reconciliations, which leads to Sukah | Camping Out with our Father and His Family forevermore.
In this way, with the proclamation to leave Babel | Babylon and restore Yaruwshalaim | the Source of Guidance on Reconciliation, one event foreshadows the next, becoming a harbinger of what follows, each step liberating us from religious influence and political control so that we can come Home and live as Family.
In conjunction with the redemption of his people, the Nagyd | the Son of the Sovereign, by nagyd | publicly revealing what would occur, explaining how it would transpire, and then demonstrating the character and courage to bring this to fruition, is the one who is providing leadership and counsel as ha Mashyach | the Messiah. He is fulfilling his vows and those of his Father over the course of the seven Mow’ed.
When God’s Son is speaking, as is also the case with ‘ElYah and Yasha’yah, one’s brain needs to be engaged to keep pace. So, when he repeatedly indicates that to figure this out, we need to be discerning, learning by processing the information which he is providing in an intelligent manner, experience dictates that we follow his advice. In other words, we should consider how the pieces of the puzzle he has provided fit together as opposed to, say, plucking the mashyach references out of context to promote an agenda contrary to everything else he said. To be on the same page with the Messiah, it was wise for us to linger on this page with him for a while.
In this light, we must face something exceedingly unpleasant. Dowd’s gruesome and heroic portrayal of his fulfillment of Pesach and Matsah, leading to Bikuwrym in 456the 22nd Mizmowr is gut-wrenching. After describing what would happen to him in Jerusalem more than 400 years prior to this proclamation in Babylon, and 1,000 before its fulfillment, the following pronouncement may be the most cathartic ever made. It’s not just that Yisra’el’s King and Savior endured Roman crucifixion followed by incarceration in hell on their behalf, but, worse, his people universally denied that he had done so. Adding insult to injury, the most popular religion in human history would be based on identity theft, counterfeiting him, all while repudiating what he achieved.
While it is hard to fathom, his prophecy reflects upon this, forecasting that something particularly egregious would occur in Yaruwshalaim in 7 + 62 weeks of years from the pronouncement to return from Babylon and restore the city. And be assured, his prophecy is far too important to have anything to do with buildings, plazas, broad avenues, defensive walls, or moats, as other translators will claim. When we turn to the verbal root of the words Dowd selected, we discover that what is going to be shuwb | restored and banah | established is rachob | the way to grow by charuwts | being diligent and decisive. What is being foretold is the fulfillment of the first four Miqra’ey in year 4000 Yah because they provide the benefits of the Covenant – the means to grow and expand – for those who are diligent and decisive regarding the terms of acceptance.
The Messiah is also reminding us that this will occur ba tsowq ha ‘ets | in a troubling time of oppression, of anguishing subjugation, restrictions, and constraints. Dowd is speaking of Yahuwdym being persecuted and harassed by Imperial Rome and then pushed into a corner and confined by her Church. This abuse will continue, even unto the present day, albeit with additional perpetrators – Satan’s assistants known as Muslims.
457Dowd not only knew what was going to happen to himself and his people, but he also warned us about the impending doom six to ten centuries before it occurred – both here and throughout his Psalms. Inexcusably and ignorantly, when history played out exactly as he foretold, rather than celebrate the affirmation of his prophecies and benefit from the result, God’s people contrived two antagonistic religions based upon misappropriating everything he said, promoting two false messiahs in his place.
It is hard to imagine a greater gift or a more shameful response…
“And after (wa ‘achar – then at another time, following this in the end) the sixty-two weeks (ha shabuwa’ym sheshym wa shanaym – based upon the promise of seven, in sixty and two weeks), the Anointed Messiah (mashyach – the one who was chosen, authorized, and anointed by God) will be cut down and uprooted to establish a covenant (karath – will be severed from the source and banished, removed and replaced to cut another agreement with stipulations (nifal imperfect – this will be done to him on an ongoing basis)), but not his or for himself (wa ‘ayn la huw’ – such that he is negated and replaced, his life for naught).
Then (wa) the people and nation (‘am – the army and institution) of the commanding officer and supreme leader who is making copious announcements and prolific declarations (nagyd – the absolute ruler conspicuously avowing, publishing, and confessing his message in your face) who is to come (ha bow’ – who will arrive (qal participle)) will attempt to corrupt and destroy (shachath – will seek to ruin and render useless, castrate and cast off, annihilating (hifil imperfect)) the city (ha ‘iyr – the largest population center) and the Set Apart (wa ha qodesh – those and that which are separated and 458distinct, uncommon and devoted, both as individuals and as a Sanctuary).
And (wa) its end, and his (qets huw’ – this completion of a duration of time to be chopped down and torn asunder (note: ‘iyr, qodesh, ‘am, and nagyd are all masculine singular and could be addressed by huw’)) outrageousness, will be wiped away by an overpowering force (ha sheteph – overbearing nature will be overwhelmed and inundated).
Also, to the very last moment (wa ‘ad qets – as far as the completion of this duration of time to chop off and tear asunder), it is certain (charats – it will be determined and decreed, spoken about and decided upon) that there will be devastating and desolating (shamem – destructive and ruinous, wasteful and astonishing, appalling and horrifying) war (milchamah – a state of constant and continuous fighting).” (Dany’el / God is My Means to Decide between Vindication and Condemnation / Daniel 9:26)
This self-portrait is awe-inspiring, both courageous and compassionate. It is hard to properly convey the enormity of this moment. I am overwhelmed by what he had volunteered to endure and overjoyed by what he accomplished. I am also horrified by what the religious have done to cheat him and us of the magnitude of this gift.
This may be the saddest and yet most heroic pronouncement ever written. In what was the most altruistic and noble act in human history, the Messiah came to Jerusalem in year 4000 Yah to fulfill Pesach and Matsah for the benefit of Bikuwrym. It would make a Shabuw’ah Harvest away from an even more malicious foe possible, all for the emancipation, enrichment, and empowerment of the Covenant’s children while saving his people from themselves. He had written about his decision, affirming that he had earned his Father’s approval and support, as we 459will read throughout his early Mizmowr. He would even describe the ordeal in excruciating detail in his 22nd Mizmowr. And now, Dowd was providing his people with the exact day it would transpire.
Although Dowd had addressed his commitment to fulfilling the Mow’edym beginning with Pesach as clearly and comprehensively as words allow, and although Yahowah had copiously confirmed and explained every promise throughout the Prophets, the achievement of Father and Son would be unheralded for 2,000 years. These first-person prophecies had been written in their land by their most famous King in their language and affirmed by their God. Nonetheless, the most intelligent ethnicity would remain ignorant and irrational, indeed, disrespectful and in denial.
Dowd, the Son of God and Messiah, not only returned to Jerusalem to fulfill Pesach and Matsah on behalf of Bikuwrym and Shabuw’ah in the Yowbel year of 4000 Yah, he told the world the exact day he would arrive. And then sadly, he also revealed that his people would derive the worst possible outcome from the greatest possible gift. Everything he represented would be uprooted to establish a covenant that had nothing to do with him or what he had achieved. It was the ultimate rejection. After having enabled the Covenant relationship, his people created Judaism and Christianity to insult him.
Considering that he was the most credible witness in human history, a proven prophet, the most acclaimed Messiah, God’s Chosen implement and His Firstborn Son, a King unlike any other, and that he was offering to sacrifice himself to save his people, it had to be heartbreaking to know that they would reject his magnanimous offer. More pitiful still, after being tortured to death by the Romans to fulfill Pesach and provide life, and then be cut off from the living to exonerate Yisra’el on Matsah, rather than respect what he had done and benefit 460from the Covenant he had enabled, he would be replaced by two mythical messiahs to conjure up religions with entirely different stipulations.
Never in the annals of human events has one person accomplished so much for so many only to have his sacrifice denied by all.
Imperial Rome would make copious threats to destroy the city while the Roman Catholic Church would seek to castrate the Set-Apart People. And in the evolution from one Beast to the other, their carnage would be unchecked for centuries. And ultimately, the most demonic of all religions would flood into the land, raping, mutilating, abducting, and slaughtering Jews as never before.
All the while, Dowd’s accolades and achievements would remain unheralded, stolen from him and denied. Both Christians and Jews alike would foist false messiahs on an ignorant world, wrapping all manner of religious myths around them – and in the process, deny the true Messiah and disavow salvation. In so doing, the prophecy which predicted this horrid outcome was misappropriated to justify the tragic mistake in judgment.
The only prophetic statements which rival this in importance are 2 Shamuw’el 7, Mizmowr 89, Yasha’yah 9, and Yirmayah 31. And it was in the first of these, while reading Yahowah’s response to Dowd wanting to build a home for Him, that we were finally able to resolve the identity of the eternal Son and returning King. And all that was required for understanding was for this resolution to be consistent with the whole of God’s story. Once I recognized the change in audience – from God speaking to Dowd through Nathan, to God speaking of him to us, and then back to speaking directly to His Son, everything fell into place. Similarly, the identity of the Son who is given in Yasha’yah 9 lies in the recognition that only one name 461was offered to identify him, just as there is only one person to whom all of the accolades are applicable.
In the preamble to this prophecy, Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable and Courageous Man listed many things which would be resolved as a result of what he would accomplish, some of which were achieved during Chag Matsah while most will be fulfilled as Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah herald Dowd’s Yowm Kipurym return. They are listed together because they will be accomplished by the same Messiah and the Miqra’ey working in unison.
And speaking of ha Mashyach, if not Dowd, how would a new one have been anointed such that we could learn of him? Dowd had clearly stated that this would bring an end to prophecy. There would be no one for Yahowah to work with or speak through at this time.
Since we know the date of the decree to rebuild Jerusalem, and we can do the math, we know that the Messiah’s arrival was four days before Pesach in the Yowbel year of 4000 Yah, 33 CE, in perfect harmony with the Towrah’s instructions. Ha Mashyach’s basar | body was karat | cut down and died on Passover. His nepesh | soul was karat | separated from his Father on UnYeasted Bread, a Shabat, when the Firstborn deposited our guilt in She’owl. He was released and returned Home during the Invitation of Firstborn Children, showing us the way.
Dowd knew that this was going to occur in his city, Yaruwshalaim | the Source of Guidance Regarding Reconciliation, in 62 weeks of years from the pronouncement to return, not only because he was a prophet and had foreseen what he would endure but, also, because he was asked to write prophetically of the experience. And although the who, why, what, where, and how of Chag Matsah’s fulfillment is vastly more important than when, we are provided with the date as well. We are even given a starting point pursuant to the announcement 462to return and restore Yaruwshalaim by the man who built Jerusalem into the City of David 3,000 years ago.
At a time certain, 62 weeks of years after Yaruwshalaim is rebuilt, taking us forward in time to year 4000 Yah / 33 CE, Dowd, with Yahowah’s support, would restore and reestablish the means for the Covenant’s children to grow should the people be diligent and decisive while being oppressed by Imperial Rome. He did so by fulfilling the first three Mow’ed Miqra’ey, providing the benefits of the Covenant.
Rather than announcing the arrival of a Jewish Messiah who would save Jews from the Gentiles or a Christian Messiah who would die, but not for any apparent reason, this prophetic pronouncement says just the opposite. The actual Mashyach whom Yahowah anointed would honor his promises, only to be replaced by crude counterfeits to cut an entirely different agreement such that the Miqra’ey were abrogated to accommodate Synagogue and Church. The greatest life ever lived, Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable and Confident Individual, would be for naught, at least for most – tossed aside to make the upstart religions possible.
How’s that for unexpected but also profoundly important? The lone justification for calling “Jesus” the “Christ” has been negated, eliminating Christianity in the process. And had they understood this prophecy, there would have been no support for Akiba’s false Messiah, bar Kokhba | Son of a Star.
War came as a result of religious malfeasance. Throughout mankind’s long history of conflict, Jews would suffer and die in unprecedented numbers. And it would all transpire because, in the greatest moment in their history, they failed to acknowledge the obvious and let the gowym, who were equally oblivious, steal their Messiah and salvation from them.
463And now, addressing a pressing challenge: Nagyd is used twice and yet does not address the same person. In the first instance, Dowd is speaking of himself as the “Son of the Sovereign.” Often rendered as “leader, officer, or official,” especially as a “prince,” who is “the son of a sovereign,” the title can be good or bad depending upon the individual and circumstance. We know this because nagad is used to address Dowd’s Herald since it speaks of “making an announcement such that something becomes conspicuously known.”
But all is not good in Jerusalem. In addition to the Son of the Sovereign exonerating us, Satan’s prodigies will use the occasion to foist yet another false messiah and new covenant on an unsuspecting world. And this makes the second use of nagad indicative of Satan’s spawn. Therefore, the Messiah is revealing that he has an evil counterpart, someone who is devoted to negating what he has achieved.
Should you venture into the recently completed review of Ezekiel in volumes 2 and 3 of the Babel series, you will come to realize that Dowd’s adversary is ha Satan. Therefore, based upon what the Messiah explains here and elsewhere, we are expecting to see the Devil incarnate enter Jerusalem to foil Dowd’s agenda and God’s reunion with His people on the 1st of ‘Abyb, April 3rd, 2030, two weeks before the Witnesses’ arrival on Passover.
This is what I addressed previously when explaining what was at stake with the satisfactory fulfillment of Yowm Kipurym in year 6000 Yah. If we fail to garner an informed and receptive audience for Yahowah’s and Dowd’s return, the consequences are unimaginable. And in opposition to us is this evil nagyd.
Since Dowd will have been victimized by those affiliated with the Adversary during and following Chag Matsah, with the Romans torturing him and then religious 464Christians and Jews disavowing and discrediting his achievements, there is a continuity between those who destroyed the city and sanctuary in 70 CE, and again in 133 CE, even with those who would abuse the Set-Apart People thereafter, and the Devil’s Advocate. This being the case, we should be on the lookout for Roman Catholics and leaders from nations that emerged from the shadow of Imperial Rome. Also, since Dowd revealed that the ‘am | people, nation, and army of the nagyd | military and political leader calling for the shachath | destruction of the city are related to this Adversary, we can look to Macedonia due to its prevalence in the composition of the Legions which sacked Jerusalem.
Although, identifying where he comes from is vastly less important than recognizing who he represents. And in this regard, while the evil nagyd is making a name for himself as we speak and is very much alive today, I have very little interest in identifying him prematurely. ‘ElYah and I will deal with him beginning on Chag Matsah in 2030, two weeks after his arrival in Yaruwshalaim. Enduring three-and-a-half years of his stench will be more than enough.
We are committed, and it is foretold that Dowd’s evil opposite will flail and then fail before being sent off to She’owl in the fleeting moments of the 6th millennium. Upon his arrival, he will be bombastic, an outrageous character with an overwhelming presence and imposing manner. This Last Days Tour de Force will approach under the guise of a peacemaker, but he will quickly decide to rally the world against Israel, promoting a war that will be devastating and desolating.
As we discovered in the previous statement, at a time certain, 62 weeks of years after Yaruwshalaim is rebuilt, taking us forward in time to year 4000 Yah / 33 CE, the Messiah was going to restore and reestablish the means for his people to thrive should they be diligent and decisive 465while being oppressed by Imperial Rome. He did so by fulfilling the Mow’ed Miqra’ey, providing the benefits of the Covenant. However, after this time, the Roman Church, based upon Paul’s letters, would replace the Anointed to establish a religious covenant in opposition to Father and Son. They would position “Jesus Christ” as the Son of God and the Messiah instead of Dowd | David, the man Yahowah decreed both titles – and so many more. Christianity is the result. And incredulously, Peter, Paul, and pals would do so by misappropriating this very prophecy, albeit without actually citing it, since it is the only one that speaks of the return of the Mashyach and his sacrifice.
Unfortunately for Christians, rather than announcing the arrival and death of Jesus Christ, it was spoken of Dowd and by Dowd. The actual Mashyach had his second temporal existence cut short and then was separated from his Father to save his people. In the second act of the greatest lives ever lived, Gabry’el | God’s Most Capable and Confident Individual performed the most heroic and compassionate act. Tragically and inexplicably, it would be for naught for almost everyone – tossed aside to enable two upstart religions. The lone justification for calling “Jesus” the “Christ” has been negated, eliminating the claims made by Christians and the denials which propelled Judaism’s emergence.
In this way, the Messiah is using the past to prepare His people for the future. Just as Yahuwdym were given the opportunity to recognize the Passover Lamb and the fulfillment of Chag Matsah during a troublesome time, so it will be in the end. Yahuwdym are being afforded three occasions to accept what Dowd and his Father have done for them. The last of these will occur when they arrive together to enable the promises associated with Kipurym at the conclusion of the Time of Trouble.
466In the interim, on Shabuw’ah, Yahowah will remove the Covenant Family. Then, three-and-one-half years before the world goes up in smoke, this monstrous and demonic beast under the ruse of peacemaker will gabar beryth | confirm and strengthen a prevailing agreement, affirming his covenant ha rabym | with a great many, including plenty of rabbis, the preponderance of the populous, and numerous among the elite. If this is an ode to the “Two-State Solution” or, as I refer to it, “The Final Dissolution,” then it will come in phases, imposed beginning on Shabuw’ah in 2026. and then there will be a doubling down of this forfeiture of the heart of the Land as is common with failed solutions. We should expect the imposition of the conditions of UN Resolution 242, thereby certifying Israel’s destruction by Muslims and Progressives.
What follows affirms what we have long known. While the prelude to the Time of Ya’aqob’s Troubles has already begun with the Islamic terrorist raid into Israel on October 7th, 2023, things will get even worse beginning on Shabuw’ah in 2026 and last seven to ten years from the point of inception and imposition.
While the narrative supporting the suicidal Two-State Dissolution is ongoing as we speak, I suspect that it will take a nasty turn during the Spring of 2027. Things will degrade quickly, with a one-hundred-to-one-thousand-fold reenactment of the most recent Islamic terrorist invasion. The aerial bombardments and mujahideen atrocities will be more devastating than the Holocaust, as Jews are hunted, humiliated, and terrorized the world over. During a break in the carnage, likely on the 1st of ‘Abyb, 5997 Yah | April 3rd, 2030 at sunset, the Shabat will be outlawed, Pesach will be corrupted, and Matsah will be relegated to an ingredient. There will be no Kipurym for the Towrahless, putting God’s gift out of reach. And Yahowah’s Miqra’ey will be replaced with the likes of the Feast of the Beast where 467Dowd’s body and blood, along with that of his Witnesses, will be on the menu. There will be a No Moon Day, a Do Nothing Festival, and an All Stupid Day for the faithful – each endorsed by Ezekiel’s Lord.
It is the most abhorrent and appalling of abominations, a monstrous religious edict designed to stun and stupefy people far and wide. Robbed of their ability to be perceptive and think critically, the preponderance of people will die. And it will all happen quickly and decisively, paralyzing a world too traumatized to respond appropriately.
“And therefore (wa), he, as an exceedingly influential person, will vault himself into prominence by arrogantly confirming and imposing (gabar – he will strengthen and empower, then triumph by imposing a self-aggrandizing and overbearing) a treaty, a covenant agreement and arrangement (beryth – an international contractual compact and binding pledge) with a great many, including plenty of rabbis, the preponderance of people, especially the elitists (la ha rabym – including plenty of rabbis, the preponderance of the populous, and with numerous among the elite) either for one week, based upon a single promise, or during a particular Shabuw’ah (‘echad shabuwa’).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:27 in part)
The implication is that Satan’s Advocate will propel himself into prominence by convincing Progressive and Orthodox Israelis that they will achieve peace by breaking their nation into pieces and giving them to him to administer an Islamic state, with Israel retreating to her 1967 borders. The last time Muslims and Jews were in this position, they schemed to destroy Israel – initiating three wars in the span of 25 years. The notion that it will be different this time is ludicrous. Consider the consequences of the Oslo Accords and the abandonment of Gaza. With Israel defenseless and vulnerable, “Peace Now” will 468rapidly devolve into a final and horrifying battle for control of what remains. This is Satan’s last-ditch effort to forestall Dowd’s homecoming on Kipurym by exterminating Jews. With no one to turn to for support, the carnage will be considerable. And if not for the beneficiaries of the Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah Harvests and Dowd’s return to defend his people, all would be lost.
And while we are now very far afield of Dowd’s fulfillment of Pesach, which is the reason we turned to this prophecy, it seems sensible to continue recognizing that what remains will all transpire between now and the fall of 2033.
“But halfway through the week (wa chatsy shabuwa’ – at the midpoint of the seven years), he will stop the observance of the Shabat and seek to forestall the benefit of the sacrifice which had been freely offered as a gift (shabath zebach wa minchah). The most extreme aspect (wa ‘al kanaph – upon a flight to the far extremity of being separated and distant, this wing) of this vile and abhorrent action of repulsive religious idolatry (shiquwtsym – of vile and repulsive edicts, detestable and abhorrent acts) will devastate, desolate, and incapacitate (shamem – stun and stupefy) up to the very end, bringing destruction and annihilation, along with the conclusion of the restoring witness (wa ‘ad kalah – a great longing with all-encompassing anxiety, ushering in complete and utter destruction while many die).
It will occur quickly and decisively, with determination and decrees (wa charats – it is certain and decided) profusely poured out (natak – being brought forth and expressed without restraint) upon the deserted, desolated, and destroyed who are astonished and stupefied and who will perish because they are too stunned to respond (‘al shamem – upon the devastated and destitute, the estranged and ravaged who are horrified and dismayed).” (Dany’el / Daniel 9:27)
469For those who are able to hold their noses for long periods of time, and who do not mind getting dirty for a good cause, we will discover when we turn to the Adversary’s playbook in Ezekiel, that for Satan to prevail in his quest to rise above Yahowah in Yisra’el, he must negate what Dowd has achieved and then forestall his return. To negate the Messiah, Satan possessed Sha’uwl | Paul, Peter, Luke, and Mark to write and inspire the Christian New Testament, replete with a false Messiah, imposing their toxin on the world through Imperial Rome and Roman Catholicism.
The Adversary would also use Rabbi Akiba and his institutionalizing of Rabbinic Judaism to lead Jews away from the truth, initiating the process with the declaration of a false Messiah. Working both ends against the middle while proving that two wrongs do not make a right, Satan managed to hide Dowd’s sacrifice from the preponderance of people. But that is not sufficient to prevail because the Adversary must also forestall Dowd’s return on the Day of Reconciliations. And for that to occur, he must either persuade every remaining Jew to choose him over Yahowah or kill them all such that there is no one left to reconcile. And that is what is explained in Daniel 9:27.
Now that we have listened to all Dowd had to say on this occasion, it’s time to set the parameters and do the math so that we can attest to the exact day the Messiah entered Jerusalem to fulfill Passover. In this regard, it is helpful to know that a prophetic year isn’t equivalent to a solar year, and that the concept of a 365.25-day year was not part of the vocabulary at the time. Therefore, to ascertain the number of days in “sixty-two weeks” of years, we should adjust our measurements to the prophetic process. This consists of twelve months of 30 days – not the 365.242 to which we are now accustomed.
This duration of time also differed from the Babylonian method because they observed a lunisolar year 470in which seven intercalary months were added every nineteen years to prevent the shifting of seasons. At the time, while a lunar calendar remained the only practical timekeeping device before mass communication and mechanics, the lunisolar system gave everyone a reliable means to “set their clocks.” Every renewed moon marked the start of a new month.
The Jews used a slightly different method with the same result. An intercalary month was added based on the emergence of barley, the first grain to rise in the spring. Fruit harvested in the suburbs of Yaruwshalaim | Jerusalem was tested as they approached the nearest renewed moon to the vernal equinox. If the grain was green and growing, still laden with water, it would dance in a hot pan placed above an open fire. In that case, the next renewing moon would designate the beginning of a new year.
However, since this could lead to confusion over centuries of time, with no way to predict one year to the next in advance, the length of a prophetic year – 360 days – was established in Bare’syth / Genesis, where events related to the flood are given in both days and years.
The date of the “word which came forth to restore and rebuild Jerusalem” is presented in Nachemyah / Nehemiah. There we read…
“And it came to pass in the month of Nisan, in the twentieth year of King Artaxerxes, when…I [Nachemyah]…said to the king, ‘If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor in your sight, I ask that you send me to Yahuwdah, to the city of my fathers’ tombs, that I may rebuild it.’ …So, it pleased the king to send me.” (Nachemyah / Yah Comforts / Nehemiah 2:1-6)
Many scholars, including Sir Isaac Newton, ascribed the twentieth year of Artaxerxes to 445 BCE. It’s simple arithmetic. His father, Xerxes, died in 465 BCE. Add 471twenty years to accommodate Nehemiah’s testimony and you arrive at 445 BCE. But they fail to take into consideration the drama that transpired following Xerxes’ murder – something that they could not have known at the time of their calculations.
We have subsequently learned that King Xerxes was killed in his sleep by an ambitious fellow named Artabanus, who also murdered his heir apparent, Darius. The next oldest son in the royal line, Hustapis, was out of the country. That made Artaxerxes, a mere teenager, the acting king while Hustapis was located and brought back home. All the while, we can assume that Artabanus left Artaxerxes alive, believing he could rule through him as regent. But seven months later, he apparently changed his mind and tried to kill Artaxerxes. Then as fate would have it, the teenage heir “unapparent” killed Artabanus instead.
Hustapis, the actual heir apparent, arrived shortly thereafter and tried to claim the throne. So, Artaxerxes, now an accomplished murderer, killed his older brother to resolve the question of ascension. All of this maneuvering took the better part of a year. Therefore, since Artaxerxes didn’t assume the throne until late in 465 BCE, his first regnal year wasn’t complete until late 464 BCE. And that would make the starting date of Dowd’s prophecy the 1st of ‘Abyb | Nisan, 444 BCE.
Corroborating this, over the past century, archeologists have discovered and translated thousands of cuneiform tablets from the ruins of Babylon. And in the process, we have discovered that due to this infighting among rivals, Artaxerxes was officially coronated in 464 BCE. This serves to affirm that his twentieth regnal year, and thus the starting date of Dowd’s prophecy, was the 1st of ‘Abyb / Nisan, 444 BCE.
So, from the ‘Abyb 1, 444 BCE date, we must add 7 weeks of years (49 prophetic years) until Yaruwshalaim 472would be rebuilt. Then there would be another 62 weeks (434 prophetic years) for a total of 483 years until the one who would be tortured by the Romans, denied by the Jews, and replaced by the Christians would fulfill Pesach.
To calculate his arrival, we must multiply 483 (49 + 434) years by the 360 days in the Towrah’s prophetic calendar. This equals 173,880 days, or 476 solar years plus an additional 20 days (when divided by 365.25), which we should then add to our starting date of Nissan 1 in 444 BCE – twenty years after Artaxerxes secured the throne. Although, that’s not easy. The solar-lunar calendar used at the time by the Hebrews and Babylonians featured a 354-day year with the addition of 29.5 days for an additional lunar month 7 out of every 19 years. There was no Julian calendar at the time and the concept of a leap day to properly adjust the solar-lunar calendar wouldn’t be conceived until halfway through this period. That is all to say, Dowd’s intent with the prophecy was to get the thoughtful reader to realize that when he adds 476 years from Nisan in 444 BCE they would arrive in ‘Abyb in the Yowbel year of 4000 Yah. That is to say, in late April or early May 33 CE (realizing that there was no year zero in the Julian or Gregorian calendars). The rest was simple.
In 33 CE, the Vernal Equinox was on March 22nd. The nearest emerging lunar crescent was on March 19th. And therefore, 476 years and 20 days from the first day of the new year in 444 BCE brings us to the midpoint of Chag Matsah in 33 CE when the Messiah was cut off from the living on our behalf.
It would have been hard to miss in year 4000 Yah since there was a total solar eclipse on the first day of ‘Abyb. And by Pesach on April 3rd / ‘Abyb 14, there was a lunar eclipse. Therefore, speaking in the 6th century BCE, Dowd foretold his service to fulfill Chag Matsah to the very week he did so in year 4000 Yah / 33 CE. Impressive.
473Just as they had in Chazaqyah | Hezekiah’s time, large crowds would have gathered in Yaruwshalaim | the Source of Guidance on Reconciliation as the Pesach ‘Ayil was brought into the city. Dowd would have lived and walked among the people for four days, in this case symbolic of the Messiah arriving three to four years in advance of Chag Matsah in 33 CE. The intent was for the people to get to know him – a noted failure on their part.
Then as the sun set and the fourteenth day of ‘Abyb began, Dowd observed the Passover feast with his Father, and perhaps with friends, fully aware of what would soon transpire over the course of the next two days. After all, he had written about the ordeal, vividly describing the effects of Roman crucifixion many centuries before Rome or its favored form of torture even existed.
As he had foretold, the Romans ripped his skin and soft tissues from his upper torso and legs, rendering the Messiah an unrecognizable bloody pulp. Then they took what remained of his body and nailed it to a crucifixion stake, assuring that his final hours would be as excruciating as possible. Such was the glory of Rome. And such is its Church which announces its presence and influence through the image of a tortured and dead god on a stick.
It was just before sunset on the fourteenth day of ‘Abyb, Friday, April 3rd, 33 CE / year 4000 Yah, that the corporeal basar | body of the Son of God and Messiah, the physical incarnation of the Zarowa’ | Sacrificial Lamb, was killed by the Beast of Rome. Immediately thereafter, Dowd’s nepesh | incorporeal soul was laden with the guilt of his people and descended into the darkness of She’owl. The gruesome remains of his corpse were incinerated in keeping with the Towrah’s Instructions.
Adding to the intrigue, there was a lunar eclipse during this Passover on April 3, 33 CE, occurring at 16:48 local time in Jerusalem on the 14th of ‘Abyb in year 4000 Yah. 474With sunset occurring at 7:00 PM, the lunar eclipse would not have been visible in the city, which is understandable since there was no one there to make sense of it anyway, but it may have been God’s way of demarcating the moment Pesach was fulfilled – 4:48 in the afternoon. This would have provided 2 hours and 12 minutes to dispose of Dowd’s physical body, laden his soul with our guilt, and transport him to She’owl to begin Matsah at precisely 7:00 PM. His nepesh would have been released at 7:01 PM the following day, at the conclusion of ‘Abyb 15 year 4000 Yah / April 4th, 33 CE.
Having fulfilled Matsah by depositing our guilt in She’owl during the long Shabat of Friday night and Saturday, April 3rd and 4th, Dowd’s soul was released by the Set-Apart Spirit so that he could celebrate Bikuwrym as the Bakowr | Firstborn of the Covenant.
The prophecy of the first Miqra’ | Invitation to be Called Out and Meet of Pesach | Passover was fulfilled, right down to the last detail. There should have been no mistaking what he had done – at least for those who “darash – consistently seek to know” Yahowah, who are Towrah-observant, and who thoughtfully consider what the Messiah and Son of God wrote of himself throughout his Mizmowr.
Showing our appreciation for what Father and Son have accomplished for our benefit, we should answer God’s invitation and observe the Miqra’ of Pesach, keeping this appointment with Yahowah. The 14th day of ‘Abyb is not difficult to establish. Passover is marked by the full moon closest to the spring equinox.
We should observe Pesach | Passover by seeking to understand the intent of Yahowah’s instructions, doing as much of what the Towrah teaches as possible. This Chag | Feast should be celebrated with Yisra’el and the Covenant Family in mind. The menu is roasted lamb and unyeasted 475bread with olive oil and bitter herbs, consistent with that of the first celebrants.
As we observe Chag Matsah, always keep two things in mind. First, our Savior, Dowd, the Messiah and Zarowa’, made this sacrifice for us. At the very least, we ought to acknowledge and appreciate him for having done so. And second, Pesach is the first of a succession of three Miqra’ey, one that serves as a prelude to Matsah and leads to Bikuwrym. Do not start down this path unless you are committed to continuing all the way to Sukah.
While we are reminiscing over the promise of life eternal, we can focus on what occurred during the first Passover as Yahowah presents His story in Shemowth / Exodus 12 and 13. Then qara’ | read the prophecies in Shamuw’el / 2 Samuel 7, Yasha’yah / Isaiah 53 and Mizmowr / Psalms 22, 88, and 89 – all of which are translated for your benefit within these volumes. They speak vividly of God’s intent and Dowd’s provision for Yisra’el and the Beryth | Covenant Family.
Since very few people correctly identify Dowd as Yahowah’s Gibowr, I’d like to quote my favorite prophet…
“Indeed (ky – truthfully), there has been no lack of counsel, no reason for discouragement, nor inability to flee from the darkness (lo’ muw’aph la hy’ – there has been no excuse for doom and gloom, despair or dejection because there has been no shortage of advice and wisdom on how to flee this darkness and danger) for those subjugated and constrained along the way (la ‘asher muwtsaq – for those restricted and oppressed, for those deprived of liberty who have endured hardships during 476distressing times as a result of the relationship) as there was during the previous time (ka ha ‘eth ha ri’shown – as was the case prior, and in comparison to the initial occasion) when He receded from (qalal – when He came to disdain and show little regard for) the land of Zabuwluwn (‘erets Zabuwluwn – Zebulun, son of Ya’aqob and Leah, place of the honored where the egotistical reside and brag about themselves) and the land of Naphthaly (wa ha ‘erets Naphthaly – Naphtali, son of Ya’aqob and Bilhah, place of twisting and wrestling).
In this latter time, during the last days (wa ha ‘acharown – yet in the end), He will deal harshly with the troublesome nature of (kabed – He will battle with the intensely oppressive and onerous, the grievous and bothersome nature of the dimwitted, harsh, stubborn, and intransigent masses associated with the large, pretentious populations of burdensome people) the way of the sea (derek ha yam – a metaphor for Gentiles) beyond (‘eber – across and on the eastern and opposite side of) the Yarden | to Go Down (ha Yarden – the Jordan River, to descend, from yarad – they will go down), of Galyl | the Circuitous and Convoluted Way (Galyl – Galilee, turning on the serpentine circumambulators, rolling away the confused and convoluted at the pivot point of the sociopolitical realm) of the Gowym | Gentiles (Gowym – the confluence of ethnicities, non-Yisra’elites, and other nations). (Yasha’yah / Liberation is from Yah / Isaiah 9:1)
The people (ha ‘am – the family and nation of kinsmen who share an ethnicity, culture, and language, and who are biologically related in reference to Yisra’el and to distinguish Yisra’elites from Gowym) who walked (ha halak – who traveled through life) in the darkness and were confused (ba ha choshek – in ignorance without the light, obscured and unenlightened) have been shown (ra’ah – have been able to observe and can at this moment actually see) an astonishingly important (gadowl – an 477extensive and expansive, a great and distinguished, an older and enabling, an especially forceful and capable; from gadal – to become significant and enable growth by accomplishing the means to be magnified and empowered) light (‘owr – source of enlightenment).
For those who have dwelt (yashab – those who have lived and who may remain) in the realm of (ba ‘erets – in the land of) the shadow of death (tsalmaweth – the foreboding darkness of dying; from tsel – that which impedes illumination and maweth – perishing at the hands of others), the light (‘owr – the source of enlightenment presented in absolute contrast to the surrounding darkness) will shine brilliantly upon them to enlighten them (nagah ‘al hem – has been presented as a luminary for them, providing the enlightenment, knowledge, and understanding needed to respond appropriately, radiant in his demeanor before them). (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9:2)
You have raised up and enabled a gentile (rabah ha gowy – You have increased the capability of this particular gowy to magnify and amplify, rearing him as if he were Your own offspring, empowering and expanding the ability of this individual who is ethnically unrelated and who comes from a distant place and time, equipping this Gentile) without boasting or exalting Yourself, nor improperly speaking of the favors You sought to bestow (lo’ gadal – without glorifying or promoting Yourself, training the gowy such that he could represent You in an unpretentious manner)).
The delight (simchah – the elation, pleasure, and happiness) they will joyfully express (samach – they (addressing the ‘am – family) will happily manifest, outwardly conveying their cheerful contentment at that moment in time) as they approach Your presence (la paneh ‘atah – as they draw near and appear before You) will be comparable to (ka – will be similar to) the jubilation experienced (simchah – the happiness and 478elation, the pleasure and delight expressed) during the Harvest (ba ha qatsyr – in the collecting of the fruit during the time of reaping in the proper season, addressing Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah), consistent with (ka ‘asher – comparable to) rejoicing over the favorable circumstances (gyl – the gladness expressed in joyous shouts and songs) when they are apportioned (ba chalaq hem – with their assignment, distribution, and allotment of) that which is valuable (shalal – the good property and possessions offered to those who prevail as a righteous spoil). (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9:3)
For (ky – indeed) the constraints (‘ol – the frame and straps of a yoke used to control working animals; from ‘alal – to act severely and wantonly, dealing harshly and ruthlessly) of burdensome labor, economic pressures, or societal challenges pertaining to him (sobel huw’ – of demands on his time, resulting hardships, or compulsory obligations) and (wa) that which is associated with (‘eth) the religious or political influences (mateh – the ruling ornamental stick used as a symbol of religious authority and its ability to control and compel capitulation) continually upon his back, especially early on (shekem huw’ – repeatedly against his neck and shoulder at the beginning), You have diminished and even eliminated because You detest these things (chathath – You have shattered and discouraged that which You dread and disavow as distracting and divisive, dashing and breaking their horrible and destructive influence) along with the rod and scepter of governmental authority over him (shebet ha noges ba huw’ – the goad of political and institutional influence and control over him, the club of those seeking to exploit him based upon partisan divisions, people who like to make and enforce rules acting like his slave drivers and tax collectors, those forcing him into hard labor and exacting payment from him as he engages in the marketplace as a merchant).
479And (wa – then) as in the day (ka yowm – comparable to the time) of Midyn | of Questions Regarding Judgment (Midyn – Midian, quarrelsome discord and strife based upon variant alterations and modifications, conflicting interests and contentiousness as contrasted with the exercise of good judgment leading to resolving a dispute; a compound of my – pondering the who, what, why, where, when, and how of dyn – the kind of thinking which leads to either vindication or contentious arguments depending upon the judgment of the one pleading the case), (Yasha’yah 9:4) surely since (ky – by contrast because) every (kol) boot (sa’own – sandal of a soldier or combatant treading and trampling) of marching armies and militants (sa’an – of militaries and mujahideen on the move who tread and tramp down) is part of the commotion and clamor of war (ba ra’ash – the riotous discordant sounds of chaos, the staccato percussion of weapons and the rumbling of those doing the fighting, with others shuddering in their defense) and since (wa) the attire (simlah – the clothing) is befouled by wallowing (galal – made filthy dirty by rolling) in blood (ba dam), they will come to exist as (wa hayah la – they will be) fuel (ma’akoleth – that which is consumed and destroyed, devoured and devastated) to be burned up (saraphah – thoroughly kindled and combusted) in the fire of blazing light and radiant energy (‘eth – glowing illumination).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9:5)
It is with this prelude and into this context that the Yahowah inspired Yasha’yah to write the following about His beloved Son, Dowd…
For indeed (ky – because, emphasizing this while revealing an important contrast), a child (yeled – a boy, the male offspring of parents; from yalad – who was brought forth) was born (yalad – was conceived and brought into view) before us (la ‘anachnuw – for and among us), a son (ben – a male descendant, the masculine offspring of the 480Mother and Father) was given, provided, and bestowed (nathan – was produced and placed at a point in time, appointed and offered, brought and devoted) on our behalf (la ‘anachnuw – concerning us and regarding our approach).
The opportunity to learn what can be known about how to engage and endure in addition to governance (wa misrah – the dominion and sovereignty to lead; from my – to ponder the implications of sarah – having the power to exert oneself, to contend, to persist, and to persevere) was and will be (wa hayah – has been, continues to be, and will actually exist with ongoing implications over time)) on (‘al) his shoulder (shekem huw’ – his back based upon a continued succession of events transpiring on his ridgeline and predicated upon the eagerness in which he pursued his calling early in his life).
His reputation and renown (wa shem huw’ – his personal and proper designation and name) has been read and recited as (qara’ – was for a time invited and summoned as, called out and welcomed, met with and proclaimed, even read aloud and announced as [from 1QIsa]): a counselor providing valuable advice (yow’ets / ya’ats – one who offers direction and thought-provoking guidance to deliberate, an analyst who proposes and reveals the purpose of the plan, a mentor who speaks out and urges those who listen to follow his leadership and thinking because it is thoughtful and reasonable) who is astoundingly brilliant and amazingly insightful (pele’ – who is marvelous, wonderful, and distinguished, surpassing all others, set apart and separating, influential, fantastic, and prophetic), a valiant and heroic individual with a prominent military and political standing in the community, the most courageous and capable man (gibowr – a powerful person who prevails, a mighty warrior, brave and strong soldier, a capable and proven defender, a champion confirming the influence and 481strengthening nature) of God (‘el – of the Almighty), an eternal witness providing restoring testimony (‘ed – an observant and meticulous individual providing everlasting evidence from long ago, sharing proof which is reestablishing, an eyewitness back in time conveying and memorializing information regarding the perpetual and continued existence) for the Father (‘ab – of the progenitor, originator and male caregiver and provider), the leader who conveys the authorized position (ha sar – the ruler of the government who acts and delivers, who has the authority and power to prevail with regard to representing the official stance [from 1QIsa]) on reconciliation and restoration leading to salvation (shalowm – on the blessings of restitution and redemption, on peace and prosperity, on satisfaction and favoritism, on association and friendship, regarding health, prosperity, and safety, completely satisfying, lacking nothing on behalf of the relationship), (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9:6) tremendously increasing (rab – abundantly, greatly, extensively, and plentifully, to the greatest extent possible on the scale of spatial dimensions, amplifying and growing) the ability to learn about and respond to (lam – providing the information and imparting the instruction learned as a student, teaching how to become familiar with the guidance needed to accept, diligently studying and then explaining the pattern and plan, having received clear and compelling revelations so as to be prepared to intelligently convey) the means to engage and endure, to be liberated and empowered (ha misrah – the person being written about choosing to understand by questioning the who, what, where, why, when, and how of that which pertains to persisting and persevering, of being set free; a compound of my – to probe and question sarah – the means to engage and endure, to contend, be liberated, and empowered).
As a result of this approach (wa la – adding these things together, collectively, therefore and accordingly, facilitating this), reconciliation and restoration, 482complete satisfaction and total contentment (shalowm – the blessings of an entirely favorable circumstance leading to overwhelming prosperity, friendship, and affection, tranquility and companionship, safety and salvation from harm’s way, as well as deliverance, resulting in a free, healthy, and satisfying relationship) will be without end (‘ayn qets – will never cease or be negated, and are unbounded and limitless, without constraint) upon the throne (‘al kise’ – before the seat of honor in association with the high status of the dignified and empowering royal authority) of Dowd (Dowd – the Beloved), as well as (wa) upon his kingdom through his considered advice and counsel (‘al mamlakah huw’– his sovereign authority and reign over his realm, and on account of his thoughtful guidance and assistance; from malak – to lead by providing considered and intelligent advice and instruction, directions and counsel) so as to be prepared and established by it (la kuwn ‘eth hy’ – authenticated and authorized by it, to be prepared and become steadfast, ready and supported through it, deciding and concluding to approach regarding it), and (wa) to be restored and sustained by him (wa la sa’ad huw’ – to be renewed and upheld through him, to be strengthened and supported, and to make it safe and secure, refreshing it with the most favorable and nourishing sustenance [huw’ / it is masculine in 1QIsa and thus refers to Dowd or to his kise’ | seat of honor vs. feminine in the MT, addressing the kingdom]), with the means to exercise good judgment and justly resolve disputes (ba mishpat – as part of a plan to decide, as a prescription for living based upon an official proclamation depicting how the Judge will determine each case, remaining completely fair and yet consistent; from my – to ponder the implications of shaphat – deciding, judging, being discriminating, and resolving controversies) by (wa ba) being right (tsadaqah – correct, fair, and just, acquitting and vindicating, honest and innocent, in accord with the standard) from then to now (min ‘atah – 483beginning congruent with the events being depicted and coinciding with this narration, simultaneous with this rational declaration) and forevermore (wa ‘ad ‘owlam – throughout all time, thus, eternally).
The deep devotion and passion (qin’ah – the zeal and fervor for exclusivity, strong desire to accomplish something special, and ardent love and jealousy for the relationship) of Yahowah (Yahowah – an accurate transliteration of the name of ‘elowah | God guided by His towrah | instructions regarding His hayah | existence and our shalowm | reconciliation) of the vast array of spiritual implements (tsaba’ – of the host of heavenly messengers and envoys) has consistently engaged to make this happen (‘asah zo’th – has caused this to occur, having always done what was required, such that He will act accordingly to accomplish this, fashioning this result, continuing to perform in this way).” (Yasha’yah / Deliverance and Salvation are from Yah / Isaiah 9:7)
So that it is easier to process, this is what Yahowah inspired Isaiah to say this about His Son, Dowd…
“Truly (ky), a child (yeled) was born (yalad) before us (la ‘anachnuw), a son (ben) was given (nathan) on our behalf (la ‘anachnuw). The opportunity to learn what can be known about how to be properly led, how to engage and endure (wa misrah), was and will be (wa hayah) on (‘al) his shoulder (shekem huw’).
His name, reputation, and renown (wa shem huw’) has been read and recited as (qara’): a counselor providing valuable advice (yow’ets) who is astoundingly brilliant and amazingly insightful (pele’), a heroic individual who fights for what is right as the most courageous and capable man (gibowr) of God (‘el), an eternal witness providing restoring testimony (‘ed) for the Father (‘ab), the leader who conveys the authorized position (ha sar) on reconciliation and restoration 484(shalowm), (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9:6) tremendously increasing (rab) the ability to learn about and respond to (lam) the means to engage and endure, to be liberated and empowered (ha misrah).
As a result of this approach (wa la), reconciliation and restoration (shalowm) will be without end (‘ayn qets) upon the throne and royal authority (‘al kise’) of Dowd (Dowd), as well as (wa) upon his kingdom and sovereignty (‘al mamlakah huw’) so as to be prepared and established by it (la kuwn ‘eth hy’), and (wa) to be restored and sustained by him (wa la sa’ad huw’), with the means to exercise good judgment and justly resolve disputes (ba mishpat) by being right and becoming vindicated (wa ba tsadaqah) from then to now (min ‘atah) and forevermore (wa ‘ad ‘owlam).
The deep devotion and passion (qin’ah) of Yahowah (Yahowah) of the spiritual implements (tsaba’) has engaged to achieve this result (‘asah zo’th).” (Yasha’yah / Deliverance is from Yah / Isaiah 9:7)
I share Yahowah’s devotion to His Son and I am proud to herald the Messiah’s return. In this way, I please God and serve Yahuwdym, protecting them from the cults of Jesus, HaShem, and Allah. This is the story Israel must hear: Father and Son collaborated to conceive, save, raise, and support the Covenant Family.
This is revealing and relevant when properly translated. God’s devotion to His Son is poignant and palpable. This is the greatest love story ever told.
We are also reminded why I grow weary explaining the vile vomit of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam when my time and yours is rewarded when we contemplate the restoring witness and eternal testimony of our Father as conveyed through gallant and brilliant prophets like my friend and brother, Yasha’yah.
485Yahowah (Yahowah) dispatched (shalach – reached out by sending out) the word (dabar – the message and statement, this account and promise) unto (ba – because of His association with) Ya’aqob (Ya’aqob – Yitschaq’s son, the Father of Yisra’el), and so (wa) it has been allotted to (naphal – it has fallen upon and been distributed among) Yisra’el (Yisra’el – Individuals who Engage and Endure with God; from ‘ysh sarah ‘el).” (Yasha’yah / Liberation and Freedom are from Yah / Isaiah 9:8)
This prophecy is such a wonderful gift to all of us, and yet for thousands of years, it has been used to validate a hateful religion while besmirching a loving relationship. And yet, it is perfect for us today since it points to the demise of militant Islam upon Dowd’s eminent return.
Yasha’yah and the Mizmowr are hand and glove. They are most useful when brought together. And so, it is from that perspective the Song of the Son elucidates Isaiah’s most acclaimed prophecy regarding the Son of God.
Since my presentation of Yahowah’s testimony in Daniel 9 and Isaiah 9 are so much more revealing than anything you have heard previously, I thought you might want to know how it was possible that after 2,700 years of both being wrongly ascribed to the Christian counterfeit that one man could attribute them correctly to ha Mashyach Dowd. Here is that answer.
My journey from anonymity, from a humble translator and commentator to a known Witness, was revealed 3,000 years ago during the original Sermon on the Mount. At the time, Shalomoh | Solomon was offering the commencement address upon the completion of Yahowah’s Home, more commonly known as the “First Temple,” to the Children of Yisra’el. After poignantly speaking of his father, Dowd, Shalomoh foretold…
“So therefore (wa gam – also and in addition), regarding someone else, the observant and discerning, 486especially responsive, foreigner from a different ethnicity and geographic location who will come to understand (ha nakry – someone from a different place and culture, speaking a different language, who, having paid attention will comprehend and respond; from nakar – someone who, by being attentive and astute will come to be acquainted, recognize, and acknowledge something which deserves our highest regard and respect), who, to show the way to the benefits of the relationship (‘asher – who, to reveal the correct and restrictive path to walk to get the most out of life) is not of your people (lo’ min ‘am ‘atah), this Yisra’el (Yisra’el huw’).
He will come (wa bow’ – he will arrive and enter the scene) from a distant country in a distant time (min ‘erets rachowq – out of a land a great distance from Yisra’el and following a long interval of time) for the express purpose of being a Witness and providing answers regarding (lama’an – for the sake of responding and replying to, providing testimony as a witness with the express intent and purpose of revealing) Your (‘atah – Yahowah’s) surprisingly important (ha gadowl – tremendously empowering and distinguished, growth-promoting and magnifying, and astonishingly great) name (shem – personal and proper designation, renown, and reputation), as Your Hand (wa yad ‘atah – Your ability to accomplish the mission, especially Your yad, the first letter in Your name, which pictographically displays an open hand reaching down and out, defines Your role in our lives, denoting Your ability to engage and accomplish the task at hand), ha Chazaq | the Influential, Prepared, and Passionate Individual (ha chazaq – the very strong and resolute person with a fighting spirit who is ready and able to protect his people from those who would otherwise seek to harm them, the one who is intensely prepared and resolutely capable of encouraging, repairing, and defending his extended family, the one who embodies the right character, appropriate status, and speaking ability to 487govern appropriately with a firm and strong hand who clearly knows how to lead in the proper direction), and (wa) a Zarowa’ | One Cultivating the Seeds Sown for the Harvest (zarowa’ huw’ – the prevailing and effective nature, the strength, resolve, and overall ability of this remarkably important and impactful individual of action who, as a leader and fighter is engaged as a shepherd among his sheep, who is fruitful in his ways, accomplishing the mission, especially when sowing the seeds which take root and grow for the harvest while denoting and advancing the purpose of the Arm of God, of His Shepherd, and Sacrificial Lamb) whom You have extended (‘atah ha natah – through whom You have stretched and reached out).
When (wa) he arrives on the scene and chooses to pursue this (bow’ – when he comes, bearing these associations, wanting to clarify the proper direction toward the ultimate goal which is to enter and be included), then (wa) he will help interested parties reconcile their relationship by providing those who exercise good judgment with the information and justifications needed to make a correct and reasoned decision (palal – he will intervene in the relationship by providing an accurate assessment, enabling thoughtful individuals to come to an agreement, and by foreseeing future events he will provide persuasive arguments which are assured to deliver the expected results) regarding this Familial Relationship (‘el ha beyth ha zeh – pertaining to and concerning God’s home and family). (Dabarym ha Yowmym / Words of the Days / 2nd Chronicles 6:32)
When you hear him as if out of the heavens, coming from the atmosphere (wa ‘atah shama’ min ha shamaym – listen to what comes out of the spiritual realm by way of the sky (from radio waves, satellite-based broadband internet connections, and the cloud)) within the location where you live (min makown yashab ‘atah – within the 488place you are located and dwell), then (wa) engage and act accordingly, doing everything (‘asah ka kol – under the auspices of freewill, endeavor to expend the considerable effort required to receive all the benefits, doing everything consistent with the example and pattern he has set) which, to show the way (‘asher – that, to reveal the proper path to get the most out of life and receive the benefits associated with the relationship), the Nakry | Observant and Responsive Foreigner from a different ethnicity and geographic location who understands (ha nakry – this man from a different place and culture, speaking a different language who is uniquely discerning) has invited you to read (qara’ ‘el ‘atah – has proclaimed and offered to you about God, has recited to you, summoning you to it, calling you out to meet with and be welcomed by God), for the express purpose of being a witness, who provides answers such that (lama’an – for the sake of responding, providing testimony with the express intent and purpose of revelation such that) all peoples of the Earth (kol ‘am ha ‘erets – everyone, every family and nation of the material realm) will have a genuine and ongoing opportunity to become familiar with Yada’, to know, acknowledge, accept, and understand (yada’ – will be shown and find, becoming aware of Yada’ and familiar with as a result of the revelation and have the means to comprehend) Your name (‘eth shem ‘atah – therefore, Your proper designation and actual reputation), coming to respect and revere You (wa la yare’ ‘eth ‘atah – once revitalized, approach Your awesome nature) simultaneously along with (ka – concurrently with) Your people (‘am ‘atah), Yisra’el (Yisra’el – Individuals who Struggle and Wrestle or Engage and Endure with God).
And also, so that (wa la) they may know (yada’ – they might acknowledge, accept, and understand) that, truthfully (ky – assuredly), Your family and this house (‘al ha beyth ha zeh – that Your home), which to reveal 489the correct path to walk to give life meaning that (‘asher – to show the way to benefit from the relationship) I have built for the family (banah – I [Shalomoh] have constructed for the generations, for the son and the son’s son), are designated and called (qara’ – is summoned and received, proclaimed and appointed, and especially called out and welcomed) by Your name (shem ‘atah – by Your proper designation, Your reputation and renown).” (Dabarym ha Yowmym / Words of the Days / 2nd Chronicles 6:33)
I did not ask Yahowah to draw your attention to our work, only to help me do it correctly. And yet, I would be doing God and His people a disservice to disavow these prophetic pronouncements.
Yahowah wants Yisra’el to listen to Him and to come home. And not finding a Yahuwd who was willing to engage, 3,000 years ago, Yahowah announced that He would work through a gowy to Yada Yahowah. And obviously, He seems pleased with what we have accomplished on His people’s behalf.
And so to this collaboration between God and man, revealing the nature and purpose of Father and Son, Yahowah has asked you to listen and to respond. It is good advice.
Since God’s first prophecy regarding our mission was announced in 1,447 BCE by Moseh, Solomon wasn’t the first to explain it, nor the last. The role of the Nakry, by many descriptive titles, permeates the revelations of the Prophets. The most complete of these was foretold three hundred years after Solomon’s address by the greatest of the prophets, Yasha’yah | Isaiah. He would write…
“Then a Choter | a shoot or sucker from the fallen stump (wa choter – a stem or secondary branch, a pliable instrument who is a secondary source of growth serving as a living entity delivering progeny, an observant individual 490who is willing to listen and who is committed to thinking and sharing what is most valuable) will be extended for a time (yatsa’ – he will be brought forth to serve) by means of (min – out of) the stock (geza’ – the original stump and root from which new growth emerges, the trunk which has been cut down and yet is capable of supporting new shoots) of Yshay | to Stand Out and Be Noticed (Yshay – To Draw Attention to the Substance of Existence; from yesh – to exist and become substantial, to stand up and be noticed), as (wa) an observant branch (netser – a secondary stem or shoot which extends from a primary limb; from natsar – to observe, watch over, and preserve, to closely look after, focus on, and protect) by means of (min) his roots, and that which keeps him anchored, steadfast, and nourished (sheresh huw’ – his base and foundation, that which keeps him firmly established), such that he will continually bear an abundance of fruit, being productive while encouraging productivity in others (parah – so that he will be consistently fruitful while causing and enabling prosperity on behalf of successive generations).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11:1)
We are being introduced to the concept of a Choter | Secondary Branch growing out of either the main limb of the Tree of Lives which is being extended through Dowd or from the Tree of Knowledge pointing the way Home to Dowd. He is likely a Choter | Secondary Stem from the Tsemach | Main Branch of Dowd and a Netser | Observant Branch from the Tree of Knowing, serving both.
This is addressing an individual who is being deployed at a very specific moment in time – one which mirrors the depictions in the prophecy. This person will be rooted and nourished by that which came forth from Yshay, which is Dowd – and, thus, he will be grafted into God’s Branch. He will be noticed for advocating Dowd’s Mizmowr on behalf of Yisra’el.
491While this prophecy speaks of a singular Choter, it explains how every member of the Covenant can serve as a choter on behalf of God’s people. The Ruwach, as our Spiritual Mother, is ever ready to enlighten and empower every sheep in Yah’s flock.
The purpose of the Choter is to encourage Yisra’elites and Gowym to consider the words of Yah’s prophets, and especially Dowd’s message on behalf of the Beryth and Miqra’ey. We can then claim the promises Yahowah made to Dowd for ourselves – not by taking them away from him but, instead, by allowing him to share them with us.
This is how all of these translations and insights were enabled. Yahowah didn’t pick me and then walk away. While He had me at “Hello,” that was just the beginning. Ours would be a collaboration of the Highest Order with the very soul of His People hanging in the balance.
“This is because (wa) the Spirit (ruwach – the Divine power, influence, and energy, the discernable essence of the feminine manifestation and understanding, the Maternal acceptance and support with the protection and light) of Yahowah (Yahowah) will settle and remain on him (nuwach ‘al huw’ – She was placed upon him, She energizes him and restores him, She is in an alliance with him, dwelling and residing within him, never departing his abode while She enriches the association and assures the most favorable outcome for him, enabling him to be composed and prevail no matter the challenge (qal perfect third-person feminine singular and third-person masculine singular)), the Spirit (ruwach) providing the capacity to comprehend and then teach (chakmah – offering the mental aptitude and wisdom to learn and instruct, to comprehend and communicate, providing the technical expertise to be discerning and educate) while (wa) enabling understanding by making the proper connections to reveal insights (binah – facilitating the propensity to ponder and process information by being 492perceptive and discerning, discriminating and judgmental, making intelligent associations which lead to a conceptual comprehension, revealing how to respond after thoughtful consideration; from byn – making connections between and among things so as to find patterns and relationships which enlighten), the Spirit (ruwach) of advice and counsel (‘etsah – of pertinent directions regarding how to properly reply, providing prudent consultation on the purpose of the proposal, delivering effective mentoring on how to deliberate relevant decisions) and of being emboldened and inspiring (wa gebuwrah – on how to be a confident and courageous leader who is empowering, able to accomplish the mission and perform until it is complete, providing the aptitude and capability to confirm what is true, offering the mental discipline to be unwavering, championing the cause with integrity and character, always fighting to defend God’s people and affirm their rights), the Spirit (ruwach) of knowing and knowledge (da’ath – of recognizing where to look for answers and acquiring information, of being aware of the evidence and being able to discern what is relevant and accurate, of discriminating between fact and fiction and right and wrong, so as to recognize and acknowledge the truth; from yada’ – to learn and to know, to recognize and acknowledge, to consider and comprehend, to become acquainted and personally familiar) so as (wa) to respect and revere (yira’ah – to appreciate the awesome nature, outstanding character, superlative ability, and astonishing greatness and be inspired by) Yahowah (Yahowah). (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11:2)
The Ruwach of Yahowah would provide the Choter everything needed to know to understand the Word of God, educating him so that he might teach. And you’ll notice that everything She is offering, including the strength of his conviction, is cerebral. God’s people would be given the opportunity to think their way home.
493Yahowah has made it abundantly clear: the Choter is an inspired and enabled witness and not a prophet. Through the Spirit, he will learn from Yah’s Naby’. God has already revealed far more than we need to know to capitalize upon what He is offering. We just need to listen and respond…
“Additionally (wa – in addition), by accepting the offer and responding appropriately, he will be perceptive (ryach huw’ – his acceptance and perceptiveness, his nose for the truth, his willingness to respond and supply answers after his virtual meeting will be pleasing, bringing him very close (hifil infinitive perfect)) with regard to developing a profound admiration and respect for (ba yira’ah – with the ability to appreciate the awesome wonderment and astonishing greatness so as to be inspired by) Yahowah (Yahowah).
Therefore (wa), it will not be by an appearance or vision (lo’ la mare’ah – and will not be through the visual form which can be seen or from any spiritual revelation, miraculous vision, or supernatural phenomenon) seen with his eyes (‘ayn huw’ – of his own perceptions or perspectives, appearances or personal understanding) that he will decide (shaphat – that he will confront the evidence and should judge, making decisions).
Also (wa), it will not be by hearsay (lo’ la mishma’ – not by rumors or innuendo, not by word of mouth or that which is passed around person to person, or by listening to information which cannot be verified; from my – to question and shama’ – listening) heard with his ears (‘ozen huw) that he will make judgments or prove his arguments (yakach – should he offer advice or seek to resolve disputes, should he make decisions regarding vindication, complain, or hurl accusations, should he chide, attempt to disprove, or determine who is right, or debate). (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11:3)
494When there are no others who are willing, just being responsive is enough. After introductions, we are invited to accept His offer and engage accordingly. And by having His Choter rely upon the prior prophets, his witness is easily validated and verified – something that is essential at this late date. This approach also leaves the rabbis without excuse since the insights he's revealing will have been available to them for thousands of years – albeit to no avail.
This is the only place in the Towrah and Prophets where something like this is stated. Yahowah has invariably revealed Himself to humankind through either a personal appearance, as was the case with Moseh and the Towrah, or to His prophets through visions and spoken words. Neither would occur in this situation because everything the Choter would assess, analyze, comprehend, and then boldly explain had already been revealed.
“He will exercise good judgment (wa shaphat – he will decide, judging and adjudicating the matter, arguing to resolve disputes) by (ba) seeking to be accurate, honest, and forthright (tsedeq – being fair and correct, in accord with the truth, avoiding any conflict or inconsistency with the established standard) with regard to opening the doorway for the discerning (dal – with advice on providing a way in for the few, using spoken words to disclose the entrance on behalf of the unpretentious and societally disenfranchised; from dalah – to draw conclusions and thus be discerning).
He will provide proof using sound arguments (yakach – he will use evidence and reason to decide, judge and correct, engaging in dialog to resolve disputes while criticizing, accusing, and condemning, making the case to vindicate or convict (hifil perfect)) with (ba) everything out in the open, doing so fairly (myshowr – by putting everything on the table, on the level, nothing hidden, justly and equitably in a very forthright and direct manner; from 495yashar – to be right, approved, and candid) on behalf of (la) the sincere and responsive who are seeking straightforward answers (‘anaw – those who are willing to reply but who want some assistance from a witness with answers to their questions who are constantly thinking about making such declarations; from ‘anah – to respond after receiving answers, testifying as a witness) of the Land (‘erets – of the material realm).
Then (wa) he will strike, verbally attacking and disabling (nakah – he will confront, crippling and incapacitating, sarcastically mocking, chastising, and judging, while pointing out the irony of it all to ravage and defeat, ending lives within (hifil perfect masculine singular – he will use the staff to strike a debilitating blow for a time at the direction of another)) the material realm (‘erets – those on the earth) with the rod and staff (ba shebet – on behalf of the nation and tribes with the implement) of his mouth, and thus his voice (peh huw’).
And with (wa ba – along with) the Spirit (ruwach) of his lips and resulting language (saphah huw’ – his speech), he will devastate (muwth – he will destroy, even kill) the wicked and the wrong (rasha’ – the Godless whose thoughts, words, and deeds are criminal and evil, of those deserving condemnation for having been in violation of the standard, of those guilty of creating disunity and disharmony [translated from 1QIsa]).” (Yasha’yah / Salvation is from Yah / Isaiah 11:4)
The Choter will wield the words of God on behalf of those seeking answers. He will do so accurately and honestly. His assessments, conclusions, and insights will be presented in a forthright manner. His arguments on behalf of Yah will be sound, as they will be based on the prophetic proof texts and explained using evidence and reason. But more than anything, His presentation of Yahowah’s Word will be consistent with the standard God has established. Every thought-provoking statement will 496lead to the same place, striving for the same result: directing our attention to the doorway Yahowah has provided such that it is opened for those who have been deprived of life.
But it is not only about life. The Choter will be deployed to do as Dowd has done. He will aggressively and openly expose and condemn everyone contrary and antagonistic to Yahowah and Yahuwdym. For those open to listening to the words of Yah, his oratory will bring life. For those who are opposed, they will sting.
In the Great Isaiah Scroll found preserved in the bluffs above Qumran, the text reveals that the wicked and wrong will cease to exist as a result of the words spoken by the Choter – as he is empowered and influenced by the Spirit. But in the Masoretic Text, we read, “He will kill the wicked.” While the result is the same, the process is considerably different – and telling.
Those who are mean-spirited and misleading will cease to exist the moment they are addressed by the Spirit and confronted by the Word of God. Their demise is a consequence of their choices. There is a consequence to misdirecting and abusing God’s people. The false prophets are not fit to live with the Covenant Family. Their souls, unlike Yah’s Children who are the beneficiaries of Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym, will not endure in Yahowah’s presence. They are not properly adorned. They have not answered His Invitations to Meet. They have not accepted the conditions of the Covenant, and thus they will not receive its benefits. As a result, they will die.
“Being right, correct, and honest (wa tsedeq – being accurate, righteous, upright, fair, and just, redeemed, vindicated, and innocent, rational and in accord with the standard) will be (hayah) the belt around his waist (‘ezowr mothenym huw’ – the sash, band, and cloth around his midsection, supporting his back while protecting his 497core). And (wa) the trustworthy and reliable nature of the witness (‘emuwnah – the integrity and dependability of the individual and testimony, by keeping it real and genuine, steadfast and truthful, honest and valid; from ‘aman – to support and confirm that which is trustworthy and reliable, upholding and verifiable) will serve to gird him (‘ezowr chalats huw’ – the belt and sash around his manhood, virility, and loins; from chalats – to be rescued and delivered, withdrawn and invigorated).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11:5)
Nearly three thousand years have passed without Yahowah’s children listening, so it is going to take something out of the ordinary to garner their attention. And while it would be wonderful if there were choters sprouting up everywhere, all willing to engage as God envisions, thus far, only one has answered the call. So, consider this prophecy an open casting call – the more qualified the performers, the better the performance.
Additionally, it should now be clear, that Yahowah’s Nakry | Observant Foreigner and Choter | Secondary Shoot and Sucker from the original rootstock, is not Dowd because he was not named. This, and all subsequent revelations regarding the last Witness describe a substantially less important individual at a much later time.
As such, Yasha’yah’s declaration is as profound as anything we have considered thus far. Yahowah is confirming that He will empower a Nakry and Choter to engage on behalf of His people – and that He will equip him so that he is able to fulfill the stated mission in time for there to be productive harvests and a marvelous homecoming.
As someone who has a propensity to examine every word as if it were a great treasure and who strives to understand the meaning behind each ancient reference, and as an advocate of amplified translations, summations, 498analysis, and commentary, I appreciate God’s endorsement of this approach. He wants all of His words laid face up on the table and arranged in the most straightforward way possible.
This attestation of the Nakry’s and Choter’s role in doling out recompense, of him being verbally combative and spiritually condemning, will be developed further in the closing chapters of Yasha’yah / Isaiah. Evidently, Yahowah loves judgmental individuals and has been eager to deploy this one.
The following passage is often cited and even pictured in conjunction with the Christian myth of the “Second Coming of Jesus” to suggest that a state of nirvana will ensue. However, there was no “Jesus” and this prophecy is now explaining the conditions immediately prior to our return to the Garden.
Furthermore, the subject of Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11 has not changed. The prophet is still addressing the life and times of the Choter. After revealing his origins and inspiration, as well as describing his mission and the result, Yasha’yah is setting him into the proper context – revealing the purpose and consequence of his mission.
Yasha’yah would reveal more about the Choter’s mission throughout the 11th chapter. After describing our future, God said…
“They shall not perpetrate evil (lo’ ra’a’ – they will not harm, trouble, or mistreat) and (wa) they shall not corrupt (lo’ shachat – they will not ravage or ruin, mar or blemish) anything in association with (ba kol [kol not present in 1QIsa]) My Set-Apart (qodesh ‘any) Mountain (har) because (ky – for the express reason) the Land (ha ‘erets – the earth) shall be full (male’ – shall proclaim and complete, fully accomplishing, completing, finishing, satisfying, and confirming all [feminine in 1QIsa vs. masculine in the MT]) of information which can be 499known about (de’ah ‘eth – the knowledge required to exercise good judgment regarding the nature of [from 1QIsa]) 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), just as (ka) the waters (ha maym) cover (kasah – overwhelm and adorn) the sea (la ha yam).” (Yasha’yah / Freedom is from Yahowah / Isaiah 11:9)
The reason we will know Yah on this day is that He will be placing His towrah | guidance inside of all who survive to enjoy it with Him. The Choter’s job will be complete. Even the gowym | gentiles, represented by the sea, will either be covered and adorned in the Word of God or overwhelmed by it and concealed from sight.
There has never been a reason for Yahowah to protect a Gentile nation from serpents because they are governed by snakes. His children know to stay away from them and those who do not are irrelevant to God. But such is not the case with Yahuwdah, especially on Mowryah. This is home and the place of revelation. It is where Yahowah engages on behalf of His children. Tsyown is where we come to know about God. And He has unfinished business in this place.
Now speaking of one of the many ways the world will come to know Yahowah, while explaining how His children will one day understand what He has done on His Set-Apart Mountain on their behalf, we are reintroduced to the Nes | Banner He intends to lift up prior to His return in the next pronouncement. The last time we witnessed this banner, it was being raised to confront the damage man had done to the vineyard Dowd and Yahowah had cultivated on Mowryah. The inference then was, as it is now, that Yahowah will lift up this ensign prior to His return for the express benefit of His people.
500While there is still a connection with Dowd, this time we are told that the standard bearer will be the Secondary Branch whose message will be rooted in the relationship Yshay’s son developed with the Almighty. Moreover, this time we are expressly told that the Choter becomes worthy of notice, indeed that he serves God and His children by compiling a trustworthy Sign and reliable Banner because of what the Spirit of Yahowah has done through him.
Yahowah is predicting that His envoy will base his message upon the foundation laid by Dowd, drawing the world’s attention to it. Then, all one needs to do to validate the sign would be to study what has been written on it. If it contains a responsible, reasonable, and rational presentation of what Dowd had to say about engaging in a relationship with God, the banner is worth considering.
So long as the witness is rooted in what can be excavated and mined from the source, discovered by digging deep into the Mizmowr and Mashal, it is valid. It is in this way that the banner will remain firmly anchored, permanently positioned, and appropriately instructive, providing reliable guidance. And that is the primary reason Yahowah continues to depict and describe this Nes | Banner. In a world full of lies, with men accustomed to deceit, it is the best way to convince His children that they can trust and rely upon what is written thereon because Dowd’s Father contributed to the content and is responsible for bringing it to their attention.
For those who would question these conclusions, at one time, I, too, had my doubts. The prophecies presented in Yasha’yah 11 are profoundly important and it’s a lot to live up to such expectations. I certainly did not seek this kind of responsibility.
For these reasons, and more, I completed my initial review of Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11 without realizing that Yada Yahowah might serve as part of the Sign. This was also my 501response when we first encountered this Nes | Banner. Then we were seeking to understand the prophecy in Yasha’yah / Isaiah 5:26. It was there that we read:
“Then (wa) He will lift up (nasa’ – He will bring forth and raise up, accept and make prominent, bear and support (qal perfect – literally and totally for a period of time)) a standard serving as a banner and sign (nes – signal; from neses meaning to lift up; a prominent sign or insignia hoisted high upon an upright pole for all to see serving as an ensign and signal to convey important information which should be followed to bring people into the proper encampment (nes is masculine singular)) for people of different ethnicities (la ha gowym – to approach and on behalf of a confluence of many different people living outside of Yisra’el) from far away (min rachowq – from afar, a great distance away in the distant future) and (wa) He will attract attention non-verbally (sharaq – He will reveal the signal by drawing attention (used to describe the piping (that which pierces the air and penetrates the ears) as a shepherd calling for his sheep)) to it (la huw’ – to Him and it (masculine singular and thus addressing the standard which God has lifted up)) from (min) the ends (qatsah – the far extremity at the end of time and distant limits) of the earth (ha ‘erets – of the land and material realm).
And behold (wa hineh – pay attention at this time, especially to the details, be observant, reach up and look up), in a very brief moment in time (maherah – quickly and rapidly) voiced at the speed of light (qal – swiftly and speedily, nimbly and agilely moving from one place to another while lightly esteemed by many; from qowl – the sound of one’s voice calling out aloud) it will come (bow’ – it/he will arrive and He will be pursued and then He will return (in the context of someone serving as an implement to facilitate Yah’s voice returning to the world) (qal imperfect third-person masculine singular active)).” (Yasha’yah / Deliverance is from Yahowah / Isaiah 5:26)
502This reference came out of the blue. It was not part of a significant prophecy. The subject was Dowd’s vineyard. The beneficiaries were nondescript, as opposed to Yahuwdym, for whom there is a different standard because they remain Yahowah’s Chosen People.
I had thought that the reference to the Nes | Banner was there to let us know that Yahowah was aware and appreciative of what His Covenant Family was doing. It was meaningful and reassuring to us, and invisible and irrelevant for everyone else. It seemed perfect. We enjoyed the benefit without incurring additional responsibility.
But Yahowah’s intentions were obviously not about privacy or anonymity. An entire chapter of Yasha’yah / Isaiah is devoted to identifying the Choter | Secondary Branch while explaining how Yahowah will equip him to compose the Nes | Banner. For the Choter, there would be public responsibility and accountability.
To acknowledge it in the context of this particular prophecy would almost certainly bring a hailstorm of criticism I did not seek. I have been there and do not want to experience it again. However, we should never run from what God wants done. That is never the right approach. It is not where these words lead. It undermines the intended purpose of this prophecy by neglecting to identify the Sign and by failing to draw attention to it.
As a result of Yahowah’s character and because of the promises He has made, God is Spiritually empowering His Choter | Secondary Branch to explain on behalf of all who are interested: 1) who He is, 2) what He is offering, and 3) what He expects in return.
To achieve this result, the resulting Nes | Banner is being composed to convey: 4) His Towrah Teaching, 5) the life and lyrics of Dowd, especially as they pertain to his fulfillment of the Miqra’ey, 6) the accolades and promises He made to His Son, especially as they pertain to Yisra’el 503and Yahuwdym, and 7) that Yah wants His people exposed to the prophetic testimony found in Yasha’yah so that they answer His call to come Home.
To be part of Yahowah’s Covenant Family, and receive the resulting benefits, and then thwart what our Father seeks to achieve would be ungrateful and unconscionable. When we read Yasha’yah’s pronouncements regarding the choter and Nes | Sing, we should all devote ourselves to advancing their purpose. Our response should be: “Here I am, Yahowah, send me!”
Immediately after I initially translated Yasha’yah 11, the most devoted editor of these books for the past decade did something she had never done. She served as the conscience I was neglecting. She interjected her conclusions regarding the identity of the Nes and the rationale for the prophecy. While she conveyed it in the nicest way possible, there was no denying her message. She said, in essence, the reason Yahowah has called attention to the Choter and Nes by including multiple undeniable and unrivaled references to them in Yasha’yah is that He wants His children, Yisra’el and Yahuwdah, to know that they can rely on him to guide them back home.
Further, God wants Gowym to take it, and thus Him, seriously. It’s His style to lay all of His cards face up on the table, arrange them in the right order, and then let every person decide for themselves if they want to engage with Him or deny Him.
I was moved by her email, recognizing that if this was Yahowah’s intent, I was wrong to disavow the connection. Nonetheless, I was finished with Yasha’yah 11, as I had moved on to translating Isaiah 12 and 13 for the next chapter. Then at her urging, I returned to the idea of the Choter and realized that he is a “Secondary Branch” – even “a Sucker growing out of the fallen stump.” It is only 504because he is empowered by the Spirit that the results become noteworthy.
I realized that it would be necessary to relinquish the anonymity of being Yada, but since the Spirit is accountable and She can handle the responsibility, it would be acceptable. And I am still able to retain the role I have always cherished, of being a flawed implement who is devoted to serving Yahowah, His Son, and People. The Nes God lifts up is simply the result of our collaborative affair.
Then she wrote again, this time reminding me of something I had previously recognized. Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11 underscores all three promises Yahowah had made to me nineteen years ago, back in 2001, when we first met – especially the one whereby He agreed to be responsible for promoting the resulting message. And indeed, He has lifted up this Banner. So, I returned to my review of Yasha’yah 11 and rewrote it. Three, and then again five years later, I have returned yet again. What seemed unlikely is now certain.
In Yahowah’s witness, we are told that the message that will be lifted up will be written for the Family of God, which is to say the Children of Yisra’el. Beyond them, at least initially, it’s gowym | gentiles who will seek and find Yahowah by reading it. It will lead all who earnestly seek to engage in a relationship with God in accordance with the conditions of His Covenant. Those who respond will be afforded the benefits of living with God in His Home.
Based upon the Spirit’s involvement, this will be an exercise in evidence and reason, a voyage of discovery where ‘asher is once again center stage. Based upon what we have been told and what Yahowah will soon share, this individual will take a stand and present what he has discovered in concert with Yahowah calling a remnant of His people back home from around the world.
505The Choter will do more than write Yada Yahowah, however. His message will serve as affirmation, as a tangible means to convey that Yahowah has and will continue to fulfill His promises to His people. He will affirm Yah’s nature, explaining what God is offering and expecting in return. The Choter is being deployed to herald the returning Son, Branch, Messiah, Shepherd, and King he has so long admired.
And perhaps, even though it would be embarrassing, after having performed as instructed and after having survived the worst man could throw at him, Yah might be allowing those who have benefited from what He did through him, to express their appreciation now that the mission is complete. Whatever the reason, before he fades into obscurity, if that ever occurs, the Choter will, as Yshay implies, stand out and be noticed for the Banner he and the Spirit scribed for the Family of God.
“Then (wa) it shall come to pass (hayah) in that day (ba ha yowm ha huw’), the root which anchors and nourishes (sheresh huw’ – the base and foundation, the source and family line, that is steadfast and focused on the root of the matter) of Yshay | to Stand Out and Be Noticed (Yshay – To Draw Attention to the Substance of Existence), who showed the way to the benefits of the relationship (‘asher – who served as a guide, leading and directing others to the correct path to walk to give meaning to life and to experience the greatest blessings), will stand up, present and accounted for (‘amad – will stand before someone who is superior, presenting the means to evaluate the One who appointed and sustains him, providing the means to assess the evidence and make a thoughtful decision (qal participle)), approaching as (la – toward the goal of producing) a Nes | Banner (nes – a standard bearer, a signal and ensign, something which is lifted up to communicate a message to those who are observant) for 506the family (‘am ‘el – for the people who are related (describing the Children of Yisra’el and the Covenant)).
Through him (‘el huw’ – as he leads, providing directions to approach God), gentiles (gowym – people unrelated to or living outside of Yisra’el) will continue to seek (darash – they will inquire about, search for, and investigate, expecting to find a responsible presentation about engaging in the relationship which is nourishing and keeps them safe with ongoing implications throughout time (qal imperfect active)).
And so therefore (wa), his restful residence (manuwchah huw’ – his place of repose and reflection, His comfortable habitation; from nuwach – spiritual contentment and nawah – living in a spiritual dwelling where sheep abide) will exist as (hayah) a reward and a source of enrichment, energy, and enlightenment (kabowd – a valuable and dignified gift, existing as a place of abundance, as a manifestation of something wonderful, and as attribution of inheritance of impressive splendor). (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11:10)
So (wa) it will have come to pass (hayah) in that day (ba ha yowm ha huw’), my Upright One (‘edowny) will once again associate (yasaph – will increasingly add, again joining (hifil imperfect active)) His hand (yad huw’ – His influence and power) a second time (sheny) to reacquire, bring forth, and redeem (qanah – to provide rebirth to, recover, and obtain) the remnant (‘eth sha’ar – the residual) of His family (‘am huw’ – His people (the Children of Yisra’el)) who remain (‘asher sha’ar) out of (min) ‘Ashuwr | Northern Iran & Iraq (‘Ashuwr), from (wa min) Mitsraym | Lower Egypt (Mitsraym), out of Pathrows | Upper Egypt (wa min Pathrows), from (wa min) Kuwsh | Arabian Peninsula (Kuwsh), out of (wa min) ‘Elam | Southwestern Iran (‘Elam), from (wa min) Shin’ar | Iraq / Babylon (Shin’ar), out of (wa min) Chamath | Syria (Chamath), and from (wa min) the 507coastlands (‘y – the inhabited shores of countries bordered by large bodies of water / notably: Lebanon, the United States, Canada, Central and South America, Western, Southern, and Northern Europe, Turkey, India, New Zealand, Australia, and Northern and Southern Africa) of the sea (ha yam – of the gentiles). (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11:11)
So (wa) He will lift up (nasa’ – He will bring forth and raise (qal perfect)) a Nes | Banner (nes – the standard, a sign and ensign, something which is designed to communicate a message on behalf of those who are observant) for the gentiles and their nations (gowym – for ethnicities, people, and places other than Yisra’el).
Then (wa) He will gather together and remove (‘asaph – He will collect and assemble as in a harvest, bringing together and withdrawing (qal perfect)) the straying and scattered (nadach – the banished of the diaspora who were expelled and forced to live in a different place) of Yisra’el (Yisra’el – Individuals who Engage and Endure with God).
And (wa) the dispersed (puwts – the scattered who are away from home and shattered) of Yahuwdah (Yahuwdah – Beloved and Related to Yah) He will gather up and obtain (qabats – He will collect, assemble, and relocate as a result of the relationship, harvesting them (piel imperfect)) from (min) the four (‘arba’) extremities (kanaph – distant places, corners, or borders) of the earth (‘erets – of the land).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 11:12)
Those who have sought to know Yahowah along with the Choter will now spend eternity exploring the universe with the rest of the Family. Eternity’s purpose and the source of its joy are derived from “darash – seeking to know.” And yet after each new adventure, we will return home to rest and reflect upon what we have discovered along life’s way. The Choter is no different in this regard 508than any of Yah’s children in that he will live an empowering and enriching existence as a result of his inheritance. It’s good to be one of God’s kids.
That was a lot to process, so let’s linger here a moment longer. The “sheresh – root” of Yshay can convey a number of things, all of which are pertinent. And every connotation is worth considering because sheresh cannot be interpreted literally and is instead a metaphor. I have it on the highest authority that Dowd’s dad didn’t actually have roots instead of feet and he wasn’t so short as to be called a stump.
Of particular interest, sheresh implies that the Secondary Branch depicted as the Choter will contribute to the ensign by “digging deep so as to mine the depths” of what can be learned from Dowd. Doing so will assure that he and the message “sheresh – remain firmly anchored and permanently positioned, while being appropriately nourishing,” which is to say that the message promotes growth and is enduring, in addition to being reliable.
Since we know nothing of Yshay, other than he didn’t know or care about Yahowah, the message cannot be about him but instead must focus on what we know of his son, Dowd, Yahowah’s beloved. And yet from Yshay’s name, we can deduce that Yahowah’s Banner will “stand out and be noticed,” that the message will be “substantial” rather than brief, that it will speak of the “source of our existence” and “draw attention to the process of being enriched.” In other words, it is going to be entirely dissimilar to everything else that has ever been written by men and yet be wholly consistent with Yahowah’s Towrah | Guidance and Naby’ | Prophets, especially with Dowd’s Mizmowr / Psalms.
Admittedly, I have a fascination with ‘asher. It is the Hebrew word that caused me to question, then expose, the errant translations underpinning Christianity. Of particular 509interest in this context, the first time I encountered ‘asher was in relation to a prophecy regarding what would come from Dowd. Subsequently, I have devoted my life to knowing Yahowah and understanding His Word, then sharing what I’ve discovered as openly and completely as possible. And along the way I have learned just how important Dowd is to Yahowah’s story and our lives.
‘Asher is a relational term and thus is one of many describing the Covenant. ‘Asher is used to make connections, to associate things that belong together, and thus serves as a catalyst between knowing and understanding. Especially important, ‘asher speaks of “showing the way, of revealing the correct path to walk to give meaning to life and to receive the benefits associated with the Covenant relationship.” Depicting the way to Heaven’s Door, ‘asher describes a “specific, certain, narrow, and restrictive, albeit correct, path.”
‘Amad addresses one of the most startling and controversial concepts associated with God. He wants us to “stand up,” not bow down. He is always looking for someone to “take a stand” on what really matters in life, recognizing that doing so will be astonishingly unpopular. But what we don’t typically think of when addressing ‘amad is that it suggests that the individual who is taking this stand on behalf of the relationship established between Yahowah and Dowd, would be “appointed and sustained” by God, and that his mission would be “to provide the means to evaluate the evidence” our Heavenly Father has provided in such a way that it “enables this open and honest individual to make a thoughtful decision.” Further, by using ‘amad, Yahowah is affirming that the “stance is persistent and enduring.”
This brings us to the Nes | Banner, the standard bearer, the signal and sign, the ensign which is lifted up to communicate a message to those who are observant. We can affirm via neses that the banner will be “raised up for 510display.” It will be written such that it promotes further examination and ongoing analysis. So, we know that, as a result of the message, those who observe it will be able to assess its content and prove its veracity. Readers will be encouraged to evaluate and test everything presented therein. Whether or not it has lived up to this standard, Yada Yahowah, An Introduction to God, Observations, and Coming Home, in addition to Babel, Twistianity, and God Damn Religion were written to accomplish these goals.
For those of you who may wonder why Yahowah would work with a flawed implement to reach out to His children, and not just speak to them Himself, I would encourage you to read Shemowth / Exodus, beginning with Yahowah introducing Himself to Moseh up to the point God agrees not to speak directly to His children again because they didn’t like hearing His voice. In spite of this rebuff, the fact is, Yahowah created humankind because He wanted to explore the universe with us, to enjoy our company, to share His knowledge, so that is why He continues to work in this way. And frankly, since all of us are flawed, all Yahowah needs is someone who is open, honest, and willing.
Though this text was written for Yisra’el, gentiles, those “unrelated to and living outside Yisra’el,” will “darash – come to inquire about and seek” Yahowah. They will “look for, expecting to find, and then investigate” what God had to say about the path home. The banner will provide “darash – a responsible presentation regarding engaging in a relationship” with God “which is nourishing and keeps them safe.” This will lead Yisra’el and Gowym alike to Yahowah’s “manuwchah huw’ – restful residence, His place of repose and reflection, His comfortable habitation.” Digging deeper, we discover that manuwchah is from nuwach, the word we investigated in depth some time ago.
511By blending ruwach, the Hebrew word for “spirit,” and Noach, the “Trustworthy Guide to a Restful Spiritual Home” together, it suggests that Noach can guide us to Yahowah when the Showphar is blown by the Ruwach Qodesh. All we have to do is disassociate from religion, government, and societal customs, loosening the lines that keep us tethered to the pier, listen to Yahowah hailing us, come to a correct orientation of who He is and what He is asking, trust and rely upon the map He has provided, and then set sail following His directions.
Nuwach reveals that Yahowah’s Spirit is “associated with us and integral to the relationship” with Him. As our Spiritual Mother, She “is actually related to us.” By “placing Her upon” His children, Yahowah “energizes us, rejuvenating, invigorating, uplifting, and empowering us.”
As we mentioned before, the Set-Apart Spirit provides the Family of God with a sense of “calm composure” so that we “retain our wits and never panic in the face of adversity.” As a result of nuwach, “we are at peace” with God. And through nuwach, Yahowah’s sons and daughters are “eternally enriched by association.” We are “assured of the most favorable outcome.” And all of this serves to “keep us composed and able to prevail, no matter the challenge.” Further, since “nuwach – spiritual contentment” shares an affinity with nawah, we know that we have been invited “to live in a spiritual dwelling and abode where sheep abide.”
It is possible in this narrative, perhaps likely considering the context, that manuwchah huw’ | his restful residence has a current and future dimension. To facilitate composing the Nes | Banner fully inspired and without distraction, I reside in the most manuwchah imaginable. I am composing this message in idyllic surroundings at the edge of the sea, on a tropical island where life is simple and uncomplicated, and yet tremendously enjoyable. It is a little slice of heaven.
512And speaking of Yahowah’s Home in Heaven, “kabowd hayah – it exists as a glorious reward.” It “is a source of enrichment and empowerment.” By choosing the Covenant, we will come to “kabowd hayah – manifest enormous power” and “be attributed an exalted status” as sons and daughters of the Almighty. We “will inherit” the universe, and all that is His to give, which is to “be overwhelmingly enriched with property and possessions” beyond our imagination. Life with God will be grand, an amazing adventure.
While the “Jewish” population still living in the diaspora has declined from 10.5 to 8.0 million since 1948, there are still between 5.7 and 6.7 million “Jews” in the United States, 95% of whom live within twenty miles of the coast along the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, or Pacific Ocean. Of the most recent migration of “Jews” into Yisra’el, many have come on their own volition from the two most prominent areas not covered in Yahowah’s list, the Russian Federation (excluding St. Petersburg) and much of the southern portion of the old USSR, especially the Northern Ukraine and some portions of the Caucasus region.
Other than Yisra’el, only the United States, Canada, and Australia have seen growth in their Yisra’elite populations. The “Jewish” residents in Eastern Europe, Northwestern Africa, and most of the Muslim Middle East have all but disappeared – at least among those who know that they are Jews.
Recent DNA evidence suggests that there may actually be a substantial population of Jews residing in geographic Babylon, at least on their father’s side. This assessment also indicates that these Jews may be among the most prominent and prosperous Muslims.
Now that we know that Yahowah will be calling Yahuwdym out of Northeastern Africa, the Arabian 513Peninsula, Iraq, Iran, and Syria, and from throughout ancient Babylon, we can use the dominant male haplogroup (Y DNA) as our guide to assess the percentage of these peoples who are Jewish. But first this disclosure, DNA testing has not been done randomly, and only on a small percentage of these people. Further, we are relying exclusively on the dominant male haplogroup in our extrapolations.
This will be the last call before the curtain drops. Yah is inviting His people to come Home before the final act. And along with them, there will be some receptive Gentiles. It is not known how many of those who avail themselves of the Beryth | Covenant at this late hour will have done so as a result of reading the Nes | Banner, but the implications are that it will influence many, if not most, and it is certain that they all concur with its contents.
This is all so poignant, providing a wonderful contrast to the time when Yahowah opened Heaven’s Door and the great prophet Yasha’yah lamented because there was no one prepared to enter. Fortunately, Yisra’el’s story was far from over. For the solace of His prophet and benefit of His people, Yahowah has now revealed how, in what was then a distant place and time, an implement described as a Choter | Secondary Branch would be enlightened and emboldened by His Spirit such that his words would resonate with Yisra’el and Yahuwdym.
With much greater Spiritual input than anyone had previously experienced among the participants and contributors to the Covenant, the Choter, as a Sucker growing out of the fallen stump of Yisra’el, would compose the Nes to convey the message the prophet had been inspired to write. As a result of their collaborative effort, a remnant of God’s people would be receptive and willing to listen. Yasha’yah | Yahowah’s Salvation would live up to his name and be venerated as Dowd returns to center stage.
514There will be two marvelous harvests and a wonderful celebration – Shabuw’ah, Taruw’ah, and Kipurym. Yisra’el’s homecoming on Reconciliations will occur as planned. Yahowah will be pleased with the result He has worked diligently to orchestrate. All will be right with the world as Yahowah is acknowledged by His people and Dowd is finally appreciated for all he has done to bring us Home. Soon, there will be thousands gleefully dancing through Passover’s Door.
If only Yisra’el had listened to their King’s first eight Songs as we have, and then to his 22nd, 23rd, 88th, 89th, and 110th. If they had recognized that their Messiah had been here twice before and would return, if only they had come to trust the beloved Son of God both two and three thousand years ago, how different their history would have been. They would not have suffered under the Mow’abites, the Assyrians, Babylonians, Macedonians, Romans, Roman Catholics, Byzantines, Muslims, Ottomans, British, Europeans, Nazis, Soviet Russians, Poles, Ukrainians, or so-called Palestinians. And even now, it is not too late.
We have previously discovered that the single most-cited “Messianic” prophecy, Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9:6, “A child is born unto us, and a son is given to us…,” actually pertains to the gibowr | God’s most capable and courageous man, Dowd. It was written to address his Second and Third Arrivals.
While we should have recognized it long ago, Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:3 spoke about Dowd as well. It is so obvious when considered in context, we should not have needed him to bring it to our attention, and yet, that is what Dowd has done since the first word of his first Song. He 515has stayed on topic, revealing what fewer than one in ten million appreciate – he was the Passover Lamb.
The religious are keen on quote-mining and misappropriating prophecies. Their propensity is to truncate God’s message and remove every statement from its context, mistranslate it, and then misrepresent its intent. This results in misleading the adherents of Judaism and Christianity. For example, while Jews simply ignored it, Christians purloined the prophecy in Isaiah 40 to create an elaborate ruse to circumvent circumcision with baptism while ascribing Dowd’s status as the Son of God to their mythical counterfeit, Jesus Christ.
However, as I will soon demonstrate, this prophecy is not even about Dowd’s return to fulfill Chag Matsah in year 4000 Yah but, instead, his arrival in year 6000 Yah / 2033, to usher in the Day of Reconciliations. Rather than “prove” that “Jesus” was the “Son of God” and that he favored baptism over circumcision, it demonstrates that the authors of the Christian New Testament cannot be trusted. It also means that rabbis are not very bright either because they made no effort to properly ascribe the prophecy to the right person and correct time, leaving Jews to be maligned by the Christian religion which grew out of this grotesque misappropriation of one of Yasha’yah’s prophecies.
“Choose to change your thinking and relent, and you will be comforted and consoled (nacham nacham – by electing to reconsider, altering your opinions regarding what is true, of your own freewill, you will find relief from your sorrows and distress and will be encouraged (piel imperative – your choices will cause you to experience this result)), My people (‘am ‘any – My family [therefore speaking of Yahuwdah and Yisra’el]), promises your God (‘amar ‘elohym ‘atem – declares your Almighty One).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:1)
516That is the ISSUE. Yahowah cannot help His ‘am | people until such time as they “nacham – choose of their own freewill to change their minds, their thinking, their perspective, and relent. Only then can they be comforted and consoled.” By “nacham – electing to reconsider, altering their opinions regarding what is true, they will find relief from their sorrows and distress, and they will be encouraged.” This is the reason behind the Covenant’s lone prerequisite: walk away from your country, away from babel and Babylon, away from your father’s family and the family of man, and away from societal norms, mores, and presuppositions. Until and unless this occurs, God remains unknowable, and salvation is unobtainable.
This “‘amar – promise” was made to Yahowah’s “‘am – people,” and not to an unknown Gentile Church. The forty percent of Israelis and Jews worldwide who are not religious, who define themselves as secularists, are reachable in this regard. If you are counted among them, this message is for you…
“Speak (dabar – desire to communicate (piel imperative)) from the heart, exercising good judgment (‘al leb – with the proper intent and motivation), unto Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim – Source from which Teaching and Guidance regarding Reconciliation Flow).
Make an announcement, summoning her by reciting to her (qara’ ‘el hy’ – call out an invitation to her, proclaiming by reading to her [in conjunction with the Miqra’]), that indeed (ky – surely and truly) her battles (tsaba’ hy’ – her time of enduring the presence of armies and her military campaigns) are finished and completed (male’ – fulfilled and satisfied, and thus ended and over).
The consequence of her missing the way (‘awon – her propensity to be wrong by perverting and twisting the truth) is pardoned through restitution, causing her to be accepted, regaining favor (ratsah – she has been 517reconciled because this has been resolved by making amends, compensation has been paid for her, leading her toward being in agreement, the relationship restored at this moment (nifal perfect)) because she has obtained (laqach – she has grasped hold of and obtained (qal perfect)) from the hand (min yad) of Yahowah (Yahowah – the proper pronunciation of the name of ‘elowah – God as directed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah existence and our shalowm – restoration) a double portion (kephel – twice as much) for all of her (ba kol) errant and mistaken ways (chata’ – offensive and perverted propositions which mislead).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:2)
Let’s be honest with ourselves, trust our God, and be fair to His beloved Son. None of these things occurred circa 30 CE, and most are still ongoing. Thanks to Judaism, and Rabbi Akiba’s false Messiah, rather than relent religiously, Jews doubled down against Father and Son during the 1st and 2nd centuries CE. Further, while Dowd provided the means for restitution, God’s people universally rejected it 2,000 years ago, and nothing has changed since that time.
The hardship Jews would endure for having failed to recognize Dowd’s fulfillment of Chag Matsah would lead to the double portion of hardship, not resolve it. The battles for the control of Jerusalem were not over in 30 CE – just the opposite – Romans were poised to steal it and drive Jews away into slavery in 70 CE and then again in 133 CE. The Roman Catholic Church would claim the city and battle Muslims for it over the next one thousand years. Jerusalem is still a battleground today. And it is going to get worse before it gets better.
Therefore, the prophet is addressing God’s Family – Yahuwdah and Yisra’el – at the conclusion of Ya’aqob’s Troubles when the people are no longer religious, and the nation’s last battle has been fought and won. Yisra’el has most assuredly not changed her collective mindset toward Yahowah, and the people have not been comforted. Her 518battles not only continue, but the assaults orchestrated by Vespasian, Titus, and later Hadrian were particularly devastating – so was the October 7th, 2023 Massacre.
Israel is continuing to fight for her survival. As recently as 75 years ago, Europeans engaged in ethnic cleansing, a.k.a., genocide against Jews during the last world war – a double portion, indeed. The new nation fought for her independence in 1948, and then for her very existence in 1967 and 1973. Further, she has one final battle, an enormous one, in her immediate future – perpetrated by Muslims and encouraged by Progressives. It will be at least a hundredfold more horrific with hundreds of thousands of savage and demonic mujahideen operating under the cover of an unprecedented aerial assault. This final battle is detailed in Yasha’yah 17 and 18 and then throughout Yow’el.
Therefore, we can conclude with absolute confidence based upon Yasha’yah 40:2 that Yasha’yah 40:3 was not fulfilled 2,000 years ago. It, therefore, did not apply to the Christian Counterfeit “Jesus.” This myth is neither a Messiah nor the Son of God. The New Testament is false. There has been no justification for Replacement Foolology. Since I have conclusively demonstrated that every prophecy purloined by Christians to legitimize their counterfeit pertained to Dowd, there is no justification for the religion, the pretense that Jesus existed, or for Christians denigrating and dehumanizing Jews for the past 2,000 years. It is all a lie.
All the while, enmeshed in a web of their own making, God’s people are continuing to pay for having missed the way Dowd provided. So, let’s be blunt; since this prophecy coincides with a time after which Yisra’el has fought her final battle, and has suffered for the last time, with her relationship with Yahowah restored, it was not written of the coming-out party in the river with the equally mythical 519“John the Baptist.” And with this sober assessment, Christianity goes “poof.”
And that is good news. But, it is also irritating because, if the rabbis had acknowledged what Yasha’yah wrote long ago, they would have averted the hell that has been perpetrated on God’s people as a result of the anti-Semitic faith in Peter, Paul, Luke, Mark, Tim, and their cast of counterfeit characters.
I do not care if you call yourself a “Christian,” believe that your Bible is the inerrant word of God, or how much you may identify with “Jews for Jesus,” find affinity with the “Messy-Antics,” or love the mythos associated with pretend “Yeshua,” this does not apply to the mythical misnomer Jesus. Wake up or shut up.
The Messiah and Son of God, Dowd, announced that he would be used by Yahowah in conjunction with the fulfillment of this prophecy. In Mizmowr 5:8, which we reviewed at the beginning of this volume, he wrote: “Yahowah (Yahowah), You want to lead me, guiding me to the most favorable outcome, then rely upon me, trusting me to achieve (nachah ‘any) what You know is right and vindicating (ba tsadaqah ‘atah) especially with regard to responding to (lama’an) those who, acting as if they were authority figures, are adversarial and opposed to me (showrer ‘any). You want to engage such that Your way is straightforward and right (yatsar derek ‘atah) before me and in my presence (la panah ‘any).” (Mizmowr 5:8)
Yahowah wanted us to notice this connection between the prophecies. It is why He brought this to the attention of His Qowl | Voice, the one Qara’ | Calling, Inviting, and Summoning His People, encouraging them to panah | change, reversing course so that they are prepared for the derek | way of Yahowah. Are you listening?
520“A Qowl | Voice (qowl – the sound of a person speaking) calls out, inviting and summoning (qara’ – reads and recites, calling out and welcoming to the Miqra’ey) in the wilderness (ba ha midbar – in the desolate and lifeless place where the word is questioned), ‘Turn around and choose to change your direction such that you are prepared for (panah – walk away from what you have been, electing to reject it, so that you are ready to face (piel imperative)) the Way (derek – the path) of Yahowah (Yahowah – an accurate transliteration of the name of ‘elowah – God guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence and our shalowm – reconciliation).
Of your own freewill, choose to become straightforward and correct so that you are prepared for (yatsar – choose to be direct, reliable, and steadfast, standing upright without wandering about, considering the unwavering nature of (piel imperative)) an elevated walkway (masilah – a gate to walk through leading to an ascending ramp or stairway; from my – to consider the implications of salal – being lifted up and esteemed) through the dark and lifeless fabric of commingling and mixing together (wa ba ha ‘arabah – through the barren and desolate wasteland of unenlightened and unassociated nocturnal swarms of noxious pests, especially Arabs, even through Arabia where the Towrah was revealed [the wa is from 1QIsa]) to approach our God (la ‘elohy ‘anachnuw – to move toward and draw near our Almighty One).’” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:3)
God’s people are being asked to listen to the Qowl | Voice Yahowah foretold 2,700 years ago would call out to them, inviting them home at this time. The Voice is summoning them, inviting them to read and recite the testimony Yahowah has provided in this regard. His role is to call God’s people out of the mire and muck of man’s religious and political delusions, such that Yisra’el turns 521around, changing direction, so that her people are prepared to accept Yahowah’s Way. It is the only acceptable path home. Therefore, to bring an end to the nation’s battles, to conclude the people’s suffering, and to be reconciled with God, Yisra’el and Yahuwdym must first choose to change direction – stop being religious and political – such that they are prepared to approach Father and Son.
And let’s be clear: Dowd is Yahowah’s Way.
While the message is clear and the path is well-marked, this is easier said than done. Over the past two and a half millennia, Jews have stopped listening to Yahowah. They have deliberately replaced His name with their own contrivances, making it more likely than not that most will remain ill-equipped to be in God’s presence. Equally troublesome, they have misconstrued the Beryth and miscast the Miqra’ey while misappropriating the title and role of the Mashyach.
Impugning both Judaism and Christianity, the proper approach is neither the “way of the Lord” nor of “Jesus Christ.” The route Home is “the Way of Yahowah.” Without directly violating the Third Statement Yahowah etched on the First of the Two Tablets, the one that warned us to never negate His name, this prophecy could not have been misunderstood or errantly interpreted, forestalling misguided Jewish and Christian claims.
Again, reinforcing the fact that, by reading this book, you are listening to God’s Voice today, and that it did not come through a Baptist, one changed their ways in Jerusalem circa 30 CE. There were no Christians then, Jews became more religious, and the Romans remained savages. The Baptist did not know Yahowah and did not speak for Him. And there was no Jesus.
Dowd, serving as the Pesach ‘Ayil, opened the Doorway to Life. And while his fulfillment of Matsah made it possible for us to enter God’s Home, he did not 522provide an elevated path to avoid the Babylonian Effect that commingled truth and lies. And while he did reveal how we prepare ourselves such that we are able to walk toward God – even through the darkest and most lifeless wilderness – his message was authored 3,000 years ago.
The Qowl | Voice calling out to God’s people in advance of His return is the Choter, to whom Yasha’yah devoted the 11th chapter, methodically describing how he would be equipped for this purpose. He is the Nakry foretold by Solomon. He is the Witness serving alongside ‘ElYah beginning in 2030, as foretold in Zakaryah. It is this message regarding Yahowah and Dowd which is being heralded.
As we seek to better understand this prophecy, we find that there are many interrelated ways to render masilah, especially recognizing that it is derived from “salal – to lift up and respect the ability” of Yah’s Way “to raise us, lifting us above” the “‘arabah – those who are unassociated, addressing the Arabs living in the darkness where life is squandered.” A masilah is “a raised walkway, an elevated ramp, a path preceded by a gateway, even a staircase.” Beyond this, masilah speaks of “lifting up the upright conduct of one’s life to show the way to rise up, revealing the gate to walk through to be lifted out of and above” the fray for those seeking “la ‘elohy ‘anachnuw – to approach our God.
Since Yahowah did not use midbar, the primary Hebrew term for “wilderness,” a second time, there must be a reason He revealed that the “masilah – raised path” would go “ba ha ‘arabah – through the barren and desolate wasteland of unenlightened and unassociated Arabs, through the nocturnal swarms of noxious pests, and within the gloomy fabric of commingling.”
While there are likely more, I suspect that there are at least three reasons ‘arabah was chosen: the first 523enlightening, the second prophetic, and the third pragmatic. Deprived of an accurate rendering of Yahowah’s testimony, the world is a dark place, one in need of the kind of light Yasha’yah is providing. Prophetically, the overwhelming preponderance of people surrounding Yisra’el are noxious Arabs infected with Islam. And pragmatically, this ascending path must go “through Arabia,” which is where the Towrah was revealed to the Children of Yisra’el en route to the Promised Land. Moreover, Yahowah would task the Voice calling out with exposing and condemning the religious blight that emerged from Arabia, among Arabs, at the outset of his service.
Back when we were examining Mizmowr 5:8, I noticed that the same word pattern was repeated here in Yasha’yah 40:3 with the inclusion of yatsar, derek, and panah. Curious as to whether I was onto something interesting, I pondered the relationship between them, especially as the first five Psalms painted Dowd’s contribution to the reconciliation of his people. It became immediately obvious that Yasha’yah was predicting something extraordinary: Yahowah’s return and the Third Coming of Dowd during the Day of Reconciliations in the Yowbel year of 6000 Yah in 2033. Its fulfillment transpires when Dowd is tasked with obliterating the Gentile nations ravaging Israel after anointing the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant. This realization is extremely important for Yisra’el.
The determination of the timing and the purpose of this invitation from our God is derived from the context that Yahowah’s prophet provided…
“Every depression (kol gay’) will be raised (nasa’) and each (wa kol) elevated place of illicit worship (har wa giba’ah) will be brought down (shaphel – will be leveled). It will transpire (wa hayah) that the insidiously deceitful aspects of that which is not on the level (‘aqob – of that which is misappropriated and misconstrued to 524cause people to fall away and go astray) will be removed and flattened over (la mishowr) such that the uneven terrain of obstructionist conspiracies which have made the way impassable (ha rekes – the binding tethers of enticing collusions which impede progress, these harmful schemes, even the intrigue treacherously blocking the path) will be ripped apart (biqa’ah – will be torn asunder).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:4)
No matter how one translates or interprets these words, this has not yet occurred. It could not, therefore, pertain to the Pesach ‘Ayil, Dowd, circa 33 CE, much less to the mythical misnomer, Jesus Christ or his Baptist. So, once again, this destroys the New Testament’s credibility at a place and time that the religion cannot survive such an undermining of its veracity, at least among informed and rational minds. The removal of impassible religious obstacles that are a result of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, will transpire upon Dowd’s return with Yahowah during Yowm Kipurym in the Yowbel year of 6000 Yah, Sunset, October 2nd, 2033.
I invite you to compare these insights to those squandered in English Bibles. It’s your decision: is God pushing mountains into valleys such that the earth becomes uninteresting and flat, or is He preparing it for His return by ridding the world of religious shrines, political intrigue, military garrisons, and insidious conspiracies – beginning with those which have served to impede the way of the Miqra’ey?
Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock will be leveled, along with every other mosque, church, shrine, and synagogue in Israel. The people who have dismissed His Son will either stand aside from Judaism and Christianity or be buried along with their place of worship. There will be no third chance. What was missed with Dowd’s fulfillment of Chag Matsah and is being offered again to his people through Shabuw’ah, Taruw’ah, and Yowm 525Kipurym will not be offered again. This is D-Day, the final opportunity to make a decision about Father and Son and what they have Done.
Every obstacle – religious, political, conspiratorial, and militaristic – men have placed over and around Yahowah’s Way will be obliterated and those responsible will be condemned. Places of worship shall be brought down. Depressing places will become uplifting. Everything will be on the straight and level, such that the Way is no longer impeded and impassible. We are being called to do our part in advance of Yahowah finishing the job so that as many as are open and willing have an opportunity to make the right decision.
On Yowm Kipurym | the Day of Reconciliations in the Yowbel year of 6000 Yah, October 2nd, 2033, at sunset, guess who is coming for dinner…
“The overall significance (wa kabowd – the power, splendor and status, the honorable nature) of Yahowah (Yahowah) will be revealed, becoming more openly known (galah – will be exposed, disclosed, and recognized).
And every proclamation of the human Herald (wa kol basar – each revelation by the one bringing the good news) will reveal this (ra’ah – will show this such that it is visible, observable, and perceptible) all together in its entirety (yachdaw – completely and consistently at the right moment). This is reliable because (ky) the mouth (peh) of Yahowah (Yahowah) has spoken it (dabar – has said it, communicating this message).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:5)
Since I am the Basar | Herald revealing the full implications of what Dowd as the Passover Lamb has accomplished, doing so for the first time in 2,000 years, we can now safely announce that the Voice is not that of a Baptist, but instead, my own. This realization becomes 526especially clear when we consider how Yasha’yah introduced the work of the Passover Lamb in his 53rd chapter. And, of course, I am the only one doing any of these things in Yahowah’s name.
The last time Yahowah personally spoke to Yisra’el was at the onset of the Yatsa’ | Exodus when He was rebuffed by His people. It will not occur again until Yowm Kipurym in year 6000 Yah, nine years from this augmentation of Twistianity in 2024.
If you are a Jew reading this and do not care what 2.5 billion Christians have been led to believe, I’d encourage you to reconsider because they have misappropriated your prophecies regarding your God, His Son, your people, and His return for you. It is vital that you reclaim what they have stolen so that you are among the Chosen gathered in Yaruwshalaim to celebrate the arrival of your Messiah.
While the Choter | Sucker, Basar | Herald, Zarowa’ | Sower of Seeds, Mal’ak | Messenger, Nakar | Observant and Responsive Foreigner, Qowl | Voice, and ‘Edah | Witness, Yada’ | One Who Knows is Dowd’s Herald, Yasha’yah is his primary prophet. He had a lot to say about the Son of God who served as the Passover Lamb. His every proclamation is focused on calling Yisra’el away from religion and back into a relationship with Yah.
On the other side of this issue are the religious. Are they ignorant of what God said, or are they hopelessly irrational? How does one believe those who claim to speak for God while contradicting Him, as was the case with Paul, Akiba, and Muhammad? Is every religion predicated on cognitive dissonance – the willingness to believe wholly inconsistent, incompatible, and incongruent ideas?
God is the greatest communicator mankind has or will ever witness, and His favorite writer was the author of this allegory. For those of us who have come to appreciate Yahowah’s style, which is to weave threads into the 527tapestry of His Word which we can pursue to the point of understanding, this affirms that Dowd was telling us the truth about the extraordinarily important and mutually dependent nature of his relationship with Yahowah because God, Himself, quoted Dowd!
“A voice urges (qowl ‘amar), ‘Read and recite, choosing to be called out and welcomed (qara’ – of your own freewill answer the invitation).’ So, I asked (wa ‘amar ‘any), ‘What should I read and recite (mah qara’ – who should I invite to be called out, who should I welcome, what should I offer to read aloud and announce)?’
‘Every proclamation of the Herald (kol ha basar – each message and the overall good news of the messenger in its entirety) is a place to dwell (chatsyr – an abode) which is entirely loving, providing all of the benefits of the relationship (wa kol chesed huw’ – is a place of unfailing kindness, devotion, and steadfast affection), akin to a gleaming flower blossoming and shining (ka tsyts – a beautifully adorned, sparkling, productive, and flourishing) while spreading across an open terrain (ha sadeh – growing within the pasture and overall environs). (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:6)
This dwelling place (chasyr – the abode), he will be gone for a while (yabesh – he will temporarily dry up (qal perfect)), the blossoming and gleaming flower (tsyts – the beautifully adorned and sparkling bud), he will be treated with contempt at this moment (nabel – he will be temporarily disrespected and disdained (qal perfect)) because, truly (ky), the Spirit (ruwach) of Yahowah (Yahowah), She blows like the wind, dispersing and driving away forcefully through him (nashab ba huw’ – She moves within him and out of him like the wind at this time (qal perfect)).
528Insightfully (‘aken – truthfully, as a means to reveal causation), the abode (chatsyr – the dwelling place) is of the family (ha ‘am), (Yasha’yah 40:7) because the Word (wa dabar) of our God (‘elohy ‘anachnuw) stands (quwm – is established and confirmed) forever (la ‘owlam – eternally and forevermore).’” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:8)
While there are several variations of 40:7-8 among the scrolls, between them, the Masoretic Text and Septuagint, this captures every aspect of each with minimal redundancy.
If you care to look, you can turn back the pages because we considered the mashal | word picture Dowd scribed regarding these things in his 103rd Mizmowr | Song, doing so three centuries before Yahowah conveyed the same insights through Yasha’yah. And yet, nary a person has made the connection between this prophecy and the author of this remarkable allegory. This is especially lamentable since, in the 5th Mizmowr, Dowd announced his role in this prophetic portrayal.
The literary genius behind this picture has Dowd’s fingerprints all over it. For example, the word for “grass,” chasyr, also conveys an “abode or dwelling” and, thus, was used to paint a verbal portrait of the bodies in which our souls reside. And should you have missed the connection, both Dowd and Yahowah affirm it by directly associating people with this dwelling which is akin to dried-out hay deprived of water – a point made brilliantly in the 103rd Mizmowr.
Further, while tsyts can be rendered as “flower,” it is more accurately translated as “a written inscription on a shining memorial plaque like those found at a gravesite” or as “an engraved trophy memorializing some prior accomplishment.” This becomes especially relevant when we realize that the verb, nabel, denotes something which “loses its sheen and wears out, degrading and decaying, 529because it is disdained as foolish and seen as stupid, senseless, and contemptible.”
These are all concepts God would rightly attribute to man’s memorial plaques and trophies, but not to flowers. Expecting us to be able to read what the words actually say, and thus render them correctly, is why the nature of the chasyr was explained but not the tsyts. Yahowah and His Son, Dowd, clearly see us as more capable than we are prone to act – or at least superior to our current translations or thinking. Religion has dumbed us down, and politics has homogenized us.
Dowd’s original choice of words is telling because we are wont to remember those who have passed away, honoring their lives by engraving our sentiments and their names on gravesite memorial plaques. But man’s wishes and remembrances will not only fade away and be forgotten upon the arrival of the Spirit, man’s religious and patriotic platitudes will be seen as foolish and contemptible.
Also, as an interesting aside, the best-known memorial, with the most flowery and beautiful inscriptions, The World Holocaust Remembrance Center, is that which commemorates and seeks to remember the mass murders associated with man’s greatest act of inhumanity, an ode to Dowd’s people’s worst experience.
By taking us directly to Tsyown in the heart of Yaruwshalaim, we ought to be reminded of who lived there with Yahowah and what he had to say about establishing a Father/Son relationship with God. We should be motivated to consider what happened there and what it means to us.
It is especially relevant to know where God is returning and to whom. We should be aware of who He is bringing along with Him as well. But most do not think about such things because Yahowah’s prophetic testimony through Yasha’yah undermines their religious beliefs that 530either “Jesus Christ” or an unknown “Mashiach” will save them.
Also telling, the Qowl | Voice is saying that God’s people should qara’ | read about the welcoming invitation God has offered to meet with us. In that qara’ is the verbal root of Miqra’, with the my – interrogative added to encourage us to ponder the who, what, why, and when of these qara’ | invitations to meet with God, we ought to be drawn to the Mizmowr Dowd wrote because he fulfilled them. As such, Yada Yahowah serves as a literal fulfillment of Yasha’yah 40. In fact, that was God’s conclusion, since He asked Yasha’yah to tell His people to read what the Basar | Herald has written.
And from this perspective, the Voice and the Herald are being equated as one and the same. His proclamation is focused upon the beneficial dwelling place and abode Father and Son have lovingly provided. And it is Yahowah’s Ruwach, Yasha’yah attests, who enlightens and empowers the Choter serving as the Qowl and Basar. As affirmation, the message you are now reading regarding what Father and Son have and will achieve is presented here, and nowhere else. The abode of which we are all speaking is nothing less than the eternal Covenant Family Home of God.
For those checking English translations, you will read that “the glorious presence of the LORD will be seen by all flesh.” All flesh would include all animals, even burrowing ones, and that is neither possible nor desirable. Even if interpreted as all humans, most will be exterminated upon God’s return, so that’s no better. Moreover, by the time He can be seen, there will be no reason to proclaim His message on how to prepare to approach Him. It will be too late for that.
Therefore, the only rational interpretation is the one consistent with the primary meaning of basar – a human 531herald will be proclaiming God’s message. This is also consistent with how Yasha’yah has been using basar. And in this case, every proclamation coming from the Herald will serve to reveal Dowd’s overall significance – something he will accomplish in an integrated and amplified manner, conveying Father’s and Son’s message in its entirety, sharing the details which form the larger portrait of the Covenant Family.
It is essential to our wellbeing that we know where Father and Son are returning and to whom, even when and why this will occur…
“Upon the elevated and exalted mountain (‘al har gabah – toward the high and exalted mount), ascend (‘alah – go and climb up). Tsyown | the Signs Posted Along the Way (Tsyown – the written directions posted on the path) proclaim the good news (basar – bring the positive proclamation, publishing and announcing the glad tidings (piel participle – a verbal adjective which explains the action whereby the subject, the signs posted on Tsyown, put the object, you and me, into action)) for you to approach (la ‘atah).
Powerfully and with authority (ba ha koach – mightily with all of your capability and newfound potential, in your vigor and robust nature, even with your restored qualifications as they pertain to your function and purpose), choose to raise your Voice (ruwm qowl ‘atah – of your own volition lift up your vocalizations and verbal pronouncements (hifil imperative – the object is engaged by the subject such that they are continuously similar in their actions)), Herald, bringing this message (basar – proclaiming this positive and uplifting report, publishing and announcing the glad tidings (piel participle – a verbal adjective which explains the action whereby the subject puts the object into action)) to Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim – Source from which Teaching and 532Guidance, Instruction and Direction, regarding Reconciliation Flow).
Lift up on high (ruwm – of your own volition raise up to an even higher elevation, exalting, even increasing the importance of (hifil imperative)) and choose to proclaim (‘amar – of your own freewill, announcing and saying (qal imperative)), ‘Fear not, no longer feel intimidated, anxious, or apprehensive (‘al yare’ – do not be frightened or afraid (qal imperfect jussive – genuinely and with ongoing implications as a third-person expression of volition)) cities (‘iyr – the towns and populated places) of Yahuwdah (Yahuwdah – the Beloved of Yah, those who Relate to Yah and are Related to Yah). Behold, look up now and see (hineh – pay attention at this moment and notice that here is) your God (‘elohy ‘atem).’” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:9)
Mountains do not speak; but its signs can convey a message. And none are more important than Tsyown | the Signs Posted Along the Way. These can be seen in the mind’s eye along the ridgeline of Mowryah, along the path between Yahowah’s Home and that of His Son, Dowd. We approach the One through the other. These books Voice the message on those signs and Herald the Author who wrote them.
Since I would encourage every member of Yahowah’s Covenant Family to read each prophecy as if it were personal and pertained to what God wants us to achieve, by following that advice, I see myself as the Qowl | Voice, speaking with God’s authority, serving as His Son’s Basar | Herald to proclaim the good news pertaining to our redemption and their return to Yaruwshalaim. The time of intimidation will end for Yahuwdym as they prepare to meet their Maker.
Yahowah’s focus is as it has always been, upon Tsyown, Yaruwshalaim, and Yahuwdah, right up to and 533including the moment of His return. There is no hint of, indeed no room for, a church in Rome, a cathedral in Washington, London, or Paris, or a mosque in Mecca. God is returning to and for His people: Yahuwdym in Yaruwshalaim. Period. End of conversation. Replacement Foolology only fools the foolish.
“‘Behold (hineh – pay attention and notice), I (‘any), Yahowah (Yahowah – an accurate transliteration of the name of ‘elowah – God guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence and our shalowm – reconciliation), the Upright Pillar of the Tabernacle (‘edown – the Upright One), will arrive (bow’ – come, returning (qal imperfect)) with a Chazaq | Empowered Leader and Impassioned Defender (ba chazaq – with the loud blast of a trumpet and a very strong and fervent person, one with military prowess who is ready to fight, one who is intensely prepared and resolutely capable of encouraging, repairing, and protecting, one who embodies the right character, appropriate status, and vocal strength to govern appropriately who is also a courageous leader with a firm and strong hand who clearly knows how to lead in the proper direction).’
And then (wa) His Zarowa’ | Protective Shepherd, Sacrificial Lamb, Strong Arm, and the One Sowing Seeds (zarowa’ huw’ – the prevailing and effective nature of the leading ram among His sheep, the one with the strength, resolve, and overall ability of His remarkably important and impactful leader of the flock, this ram who engages and fights as a shepherd protecting His sheep, who with His strong arm is fruitful in His ways, accomplishing the mission, especially when sowing the seeds of truth while denoting and advancing the purpose of God and His sacrificial lamb) will vividly communicate (mashal – will wisely exercise authority over individuals and governments based upon the value of his proverbial sayings, his world-renowned prophetic discourse and 534eminently meaningful phrases and terminology, holding dominion by painting pictures with words) for Him (la huw’ – to approach Him).
Look up and pay attention (hineh – behold the details and be observant) to him (‘eth huw’): the compensation for his loyalty (sakar huw’ – the just return and reward offered for his services and steadfast devotion) and (wa) his work, past and present (pe’ulah huw’ – his labor for what he is doing and has done), is right in front of him (la paneh huw’ – is approaching him and facing him, in his very presence, appearing before him).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:10)
Yahowah’s Chazaq | Empowered Leader and Impassioned Defender and His Zarowa’ | Protective Shepherd, Sacrificial Lamb, and Strong Arm have so much in common, they are one and the same. This is Dowd, the Son of God, Messiah, Shepherd, and King. And as has been the case for as long as we humans have known God, it has been men like Dowd who have spoken for Him. So, while Yahowah can and does speak for Himself, He much prefers to engage through His favorite people.
This known, just as Dowd reflects the character, intellect, and passion of Yahowah, the Herald was chosen because of his similarity in attitudes and attributes to the King he has been asked to serve – making them compatible. And therefore, this pronouncement could just as easily be addressing Yada as the third Zarowa’ | One Sowing the Seeds for the Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah Harvests, vividly communicating on behalf of Father and Son.
Affirming this, it was Dowd who was known for his Mashal | ability to Paint Pictures with Words and who excelled in his sakar | service and devotion to God. At this moment, he is in Yahowah’s presence, viewing a restored Yisra’el. He is there for many reasons, one of which is that this will be a time of war when Yahowah and His Chazaq 535will vanquish all of those who have foolishly opposed God and His people. Not only has Dowd fought more effectively on behalf of Yisra’el than anyone else, but he is also the only one who meets these criteria.
In the understatement of the millennia, Yahowah encourages His people to pay attention to His Son, Dowd. His reward for his loyalty and devotion, for fulfilling Chag Matsah, is commensurate with being Yahowah’s Bakowr | Firstborn. The Sovereign will crown him King of the Universe.
It is as it should be. Dowd’s sacrifice has been completely neglected and disavowed by Yisra’el. This must change such that those celebrating Yahowah’s return with His Son will know who made it possible for them to enjoy this moment.
Also, since Dowd was appropriately compensated for being King of Yisra’el by 968 BCE, the work for which he is being rewarded for having accomplished this day pertains to his service as the Passover Lamb. And it is the recognition that Yahowah is encouraging His people to embrace.
“Like (ka) a Shepherd (ra’ah), he will tend (ra’ah – care for the needs of, leading, feeding, and protecting (qal imperfect – actually, literally, genuinely, and continually)) his flock (‘eder huw’ – those who need H/his assistance).
He will gather (qabats – he will collect and obtain (piel imperfect)) the lambs (taleh – the young and vulnerable sheep) in his strong and capable arms, with him being a protective shepherd, productive ram, and sacrificial lamb (ba zarowa’ huw’ – with all the resolve and overall ability he can muster as an important and impactful individual of action who, as a ram among sheep is a leader and fighter, engaged within the flock as a shepherd protecting his sheep, who is fruitful in his ways, accomplishing the mission, especially when sowing the 536seeds of truth and advancing the purpose of the arm of God and His sacrificial lamb).
He will guide, leading (nahal – he will direct, sustain, and nurture, caring for and helping (piel imperfect – whereby the consistent guidance will benefit the sheep)) those who are nursing (‘uwl – the mothers suckling the youngest sheep), lifting them up (nasa’ – raising and carrying them, honoring and respecting them) in his lap (ba cheq).” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 40:11)
Yahowah has just shared His understanding of zarowa’, surrounding it with words we would readily understand. As a “ra’ah ra’ah ‘eder – shepherd tending” God’s “flock,” Dowd was the Shepherd’s shepherd. And this is what made Dowd God’s “zarowa’ – capable arm and productive ram protecting the flock.” Dowd was not only a “ra’ah – shepherd,” who was afforded the privilege of “ra’ah – tending to” Yahowah’s chosen “sheep, leading and feeding them, guiding and protecting them,” but he did so as the Zarowa’ | Sacrificial Lamb – earning everyone’s respect.
But there is far more to this amazing term that awaits our discovery. It leads to and introduces one of the most revealing and affirming statements found among the Prophets.
Based upon its use in the Towrah (Shemowth / Exodus 6:6, 15:16, Bamidbar / Numbers 6:19 and Dabarym / Deuteronomy 4:34 and 16:12, even Mizmowr / Psalm 77:15 and Yasha’yah / Isaiah 33:2), zarowa’ is used to symbolically present the Sacrificial Lamb’s ability to shoulder our burdens in association with Passover. And while that is true throughout the Towrah, there are some notable exceptions among the Prophets.
Zarowa’ is based upon zera’ – to sow seeds, and thus denotes the ideas of “being productive and fruitful in cultivating and harvesting offspring.” No man exhibited 537these attributes more so than Dowd. Zarowa’ is the title the Messiah and Son of God will wear most proudly. With it, he stands in good company, and yet above us all.
Nonetheless, most Hebrew dictionaries define zarowa’ as “arm,” but that usage is quite rare, occurring in just over a dozen of some ninety references. But to be fair, the “arm” and “shoulder,” like the “hand,” in Hebrew, are almost always presented symbolically, conveying an individual’s “influence and capability,” their “power and strength,” their “ability to be productive, to get things done, and to prevail.”
Similar to the symbolic usage found here in Yasha’yah 40, while also being deployed during prophetic references to the Last Days, we find zarowa’ used in Mizmowr / Psalm 98:1 and Yasha’yah / Isaiah 51:9, 52:10, 63:5 – all addressing Yahowah’s ability to vanquish His enemies upon His return – which He will do with His Zarowa’.
God, like His Son, is a fighter, not a pacifist. Recognizing this, zarowa’ is deployed three times to denote a king leading a large army. As a result, a broken zarowa’ is symbolic of a defeated force. Not surprisingly, the word is used in this context on eight occasions.
Driving right to the heart of zarowa’s metaphorical usage in this context, it is twice deployed identically to how we see it used here in Yasha’yah 40. In both, zarowa’ describes the role of a “particularly important individual in God’s sight, a ram among the sheep, an empowered and capable shepherd, a productive fighter who consistently prevails when defending his flock from those who would harm them, a leader among his people with the strength, resolve, and character to make the necessary sacrifices for his flock to live free and fruitful lives by cultivating the seeds which have been sown to produce a large harvest as the arm of God, thereby guiding the sheep to the sacrificial 538lamb.” It is a wonderful word and it applies to three men: Moseh, Dowd, and Yada.
In Yasha’yah / Isaiah 63:12, Moseh was presented as a zarowa’ for his laudable contributions during the Exodus, whereby this remarkable ram led Yah’s flock, the Children of Yisra’el, out of captivity in Mitsraym. Thereafter, he served as their shepherd by working with Yahowah to deliver the Towrah.
Therefore, since this reference in Yasha’yah 40 clearly depicts Dowd as Yahowah’s Zarowa’ upon His return, we find the two most important and productive individuals Yahowah deployed being described as Zarowa’: Moseh, and Dowd. They are the leading rams among the sheep.
In recognition of this concluding thought, there are two other times zarowa’ is used that we’d also be wise to consider – both of which may profoundly change the way you process the very words you are reading. The first is in Dabry ha Yowmym / 2nd Chronicles 6:32 and the last is found in Yasha’yah / Isaiah 53:1.
From that perspective, the introduction to what is among the most acclaimed prophecies speaks of someone to whom Yahowah has made this realization known. It acknowledges the existence of an individual who will or has uniquely ascertained and clearly conveyed the identity of these zarowa’. Especially relevant, the sole reason that this man is mentioned at this moment is that by seeking to establish and verify the point of the prophetic message Yahowah was conveying through Yasha’yah, his analysis and insights are relevant…
“Who (my) has come to establish, verify, and prove (‘aman – has reliably, confidently, and dependably demonstrated as true (hifil perfect)) the point of Our message from far away (la shamuwa’ah ‘anachnuw – reporting the information and news from Yahowah through 539Yasha’yah while in a different geographical area, and then announcing it to others)?
And (wa) to whom (‘al my) has the Zarowa’ | Strong Arm, Protective Ram, and Sacrificial Lamb (zarowa’) of Yahowah (Yahowah – the proper pronunciation of the name of ‘elowah – God as directed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah existence and our shalowm – restoration) been revealed and made known (galah – been openly exposed through evidence and reason)?” (Yasha’yah / Isaiah 53:1)
In this context, every positive attribute we have considered fits Yahowah’s Zarowa’: Moseh and Dowd. They were “uniquely important while serving as the hand” of God. Both were “empowered, capable, and protective as leaders” of God’s people. They were “productive rams among the sheep who consistently prevailed when fighting to defend” God’s “flock.” And one, of course, was also the Sacrificial Lamb – to which the Yasha’yah 53 prophecy applies.
While true, and vital, they were not who Yahowah was addressing. The answer to his question is, therefore, the lone individual making the identity of the Zarowa’ | Sacrificial Lamb known to Yisra’el. He is the Zarowa’ who is cultivating the seeds of the final Harvests by correctly assessing Yasha’yah’s revelations for the first time, and just in time.
As we know, this was not the first time Yahowah inspired a prophet to use the identification of the Zarowa’ to draw attention to His Herald. Zarowa’ was used to identify this unique individual by Shalomoh | Reconciliation | Solomon, Dowd’s son, upon the completion and dedication of Yahowah’s Family Home. At the seminal moment in the life of a united Yisra’el, standing atop Mowryah with the recently completed Temple gleaming in the background, the man noted for his 540wisdom, Shalomoh | Solomon, delivered a profoundly important speech while dedicating the building Yahowah had designed to showcase the Ark of the Covenant, the Tablets of Stone, and original autograph of the Towrah Moseh had scribed.
With Ya’aqob’s descendants gathered before him, and speaking of the promises Yahowah had made to his father, Dowd, while desirous of guiding his people’s footsteps into the future, Solomon used an especially descriptive term, “nakry – a discerning foreigner from a distant place and time speaking a different language, who, as a result of being observant would come to understand,” to tell the Children of Yisra’el how they should respond to the words this individual would write on their behalf.
It was after describing the importance of the Ark of the Covenant, which had been placed in the center of God’s home, that Solomon reiterated some of the wonderful things that would benefit Yisra’el if the people continued to observe the Towrah. But knowing they would not, he said the following…
“Therefore (wa gam), regarding someone else, the observant and discerning, especially responsive, foreigner from a different ethnicity and geographic location who will come to understand (ha nakry – someone from a different place and culture, speaking a different language, who, having paid attention will comprehend and respond; from nakar – someone who, by being attentive and astute will come to be acquainted, recognize, and acknowledge something which deserves our highest regard and respect), who, to show the way to the benefits of the relationship (‘asher) is not of your people (lo’ min ‘am ‘atah), this Yisra’el (Yisra’el huw’).
He will come (wa bow’) from a distant country after a long interval of time (min ‘erets rachowq) for the express purpose of being a Witness and providing 541answers regarding (lama’an) Your (‘atah) vitally important (ha gadowl) name (shem) as Your Hand (wa yad ‘atah), as an influential, prepared, and resolute man willing to engage in battle (ha chazaq), and (wa) as a Zarowa’ | One Cultivating the Seeds Sown for the Harvest (zarowa’ huw’ – one who is fruitful in his ways, sowing the seeds which take root and grow while denoting and advancing the purpose of the Arm of God, of His Shepherd, and Sacrificial Lamb) whom You have extended (‘atah ha natah).
When (wa) he arrives on the scene and chooses to pursue this (bow’), then (wa) he will help interested parties reconcile their relationship by providing those who exercise good judgment with the information and justifications needed to make a correct and reasoned decision (palal) regarding this Familial Relationship (‘el ha beyth ha zeh). (Dabarym ha Yowmym / 2nd Chronicles 6:32)
When you hear him as if out of the heavens, listen to what comes out of the spiritual realm (wa ‘atah shama’ min ha shamaym) within the location where you live, no matter where you are (min makown yashab ‘atah), then (wa) engage and act accordingly, doing everything (‘asah ka kol) which, to show the way (‘asher), the Nakry | Observant and Responsive Foreigner from a different ethnicity and geographic location who understands (ha nakry – this man from a different place and culture, speaking another language who is uniquely discerning) has proclaimed and invited you to read, summoning you (qara’ ‘el ‘atah), for the express purpose of serving as a Witness, a teacher who provides answers such that (lama’an) all peoples of the Earth (kol ‘am ha ‘erets) will have a genuine and ongoing opportunity to become familiar with Yada’, to know, acknowledge, accept, and understand (yada’) Your name (‘eth shem ‘atah), coming to respect and revere 542You (wa la yare’ ‘eth ‘atah) simultaneously along with (ka) Your people (‘am ‘atah), Yisra’el (Yisra’el – Individuals who Struggle and Wrestle with the Almighty becoming Those who Engage and Endure with God).
And also, so that (wa la) they may know, acknowledge, accept, and appreciate (yada’) that, truthfully (ky), Your Family and this House (‘al ha beyth ha zeh), which to reveal the correct path to walk to give life meaning that (‘asher) I have built for the Family (banah), are designated and called, invited and welcomed (qara’), by Your name (shem ‘atah).” (Dabarym ha Yowmym / Words of the Days / 2nd Chronicles 6:33)
Other than Yahowah speaking directly to all humanity in His own voice, which isn’t possible in this context because He’s not a nakry | foreigner, imagine the wonderment in the minds of those listening to Solomon three thousand years ago, trying to ascertain how this could even be possible. Since God is not the voice out of the sky, and has pledged not to do so again without speaking through someone, they could not have foreseen the recent development of the internet that would make it possible for everyone on Earth to be able to listen and benefit concurrently. Even then, they would not have understood why God would speak through a foreigner to Yisra’el and to Gowym concurrently, from outside of Yisra’el, and in a language other than Hebrew.
The preamble to this prophecy is amazing, and yet now, since this capability is so integrated into our lives, with the average individual spending seven hours a day listening, looking, and reading that which they have selected from the cloud, the fulfillment appears almost mundane. Yet still, consider the unlikely intersection of someone thousands of years and thousands of miles from Yisra’el, a complete stranger in a distant place and time, becoming so enthralled with Yahowah’s words that he 543would compose twenty thousand pages of insights on the Towrah, Miqra’ey, and Beryth, all gleaned by translating Yahowah’s testimony into the lingua franca of the world – the language spoken by more Yahuwdym than Hebrew – somehow coming upon the realization that Dowd is the Son of God, Yahowah’s Mashyach and Melek, while also serving as the Zarowa’.
As is the case with the Choter | Secondary Stem and Sucker composing the Nes | Banner, Yahowah isn’t calling anyone’s attention to life but, instead, his presentation of His words. The only achievement of the Nakry | Observant and Discerning Foreigner that matters is Yada Yahowah. He is doing what Solomon did on this day – citing the promises Yahowah made to Moseh and Dowd on behalf of Yisra’el.
Three thousand years ago, Yahowah revealed that He would use a Gentile to reach His People and call them Home. He would even endorse what he would write and say, telling Yahuwdym to do as he said, recognizing that this Nakry would “nakar – come to know Him by being observant, that he would understand by being discerning.” He would explore by closely examining and carefully considering the Towrah, Naby’, wa Mizmowr | the Guidance, Prophets, and Songs to Yada’ Yahowah! – revealing the proper pronunciation and importance of knowing God’s name.
This is why Yah wanted His message written in English, the language spoken by more Jews and Gentiles than any other. It is why the proper assessment of Moseh and Dowd is so vital to Yah. It is why Yahowah turned to a Nakry known as Yada to awaken Yisra’el. It is the one and only time that God asked His people to engage based on what a foreigner had to say.
And that is because this Nakry would serve as a Lama’an | Witness and Teacher, as someone providing the 544answers which can be qara’ | read and recited on behalf of all people, especially Yisra’el. Beyond the written translations and insights found in Yada’ Yahowah, An Introduction to God, Observations, Coming Home, Babel, Twistianity, and God Damn Religion, even beyond the reach of Yah’s Word recited throughout Yada’ Yah Radio and our Social Media outreach through YouTube and X, this is also inferring that Yada’ will be invited to serve alongside ‘ElYah as the final Witness during the Time of Ya’aqob’s Troubles (Malaky / Malachi 4:5 and Zakaryah / Zechariah 4:14).
Beyond all of this, there is but one reason that the Nakry | Observant and Discerning Foreigner in a faraway place and time would have been introduced and authenticated by Yahowah during the dedication of His Covenant Home. Yahowah wants Yisra’el, and the world at large, to consider what he has translated and shared because the information, insights, and perspective he is providing are relevant and credible, valid and reconciling, and indeed dependable and trustworthy. He has thoughtfully considered what Dowd has accomplished by fulfilling Chag Matsah and is willing to acknowledge and properly credit the Zarowa’ for the first time since the Prophets long ago.
By investigating something others were afraid to even consider, the Nakry became so uniquely relevant to knowing Yahowah, to appreciating what He is offering, and to recognizing what He is asking in return, that God saw fit to validate His Lama’an | Witness to His Shem, to the Towrah, Naby’, wa Mizmowr, to the Beryth and Miqra’ey, to Yisra’el and Yahuwdym, and most of all, to His Bakowr, ha Mashyach, our Ra’ah and Melek, the Zarowa’, Dowd.
545As we are aware, Yasha’yah 53 begins by directing our attention to the identity of the Zarowa’. God’s introduction also reveals that the Yada Yahowah Series would be noted for its devotion to properly translating, assessing, and explaining Isaiah’s prophecies. We understand this connection because nowhere else are the Zarowa’ openly discussed, much less identified and known. This provides added credence to what you are reading.
The questions in the opening credits are intriguing for many reasons, one of which is that there is nothing equivalent to them anywhere else in the Prophets. And in this regard, there are only a couple of options regarding shemuwa’ah ‘anachnuw | our message. This is either Yahowah bringing Yasha’yah into the conversation, telling us that they are in agreement, or “our” is inclusive of Father and Son, God and the Zarowa’, since this is about their role in our salvation. It is also possible that ‘anachnuw addresses both prophets and every prophet…
“Who (my – an interrogative posing a who, what, where, why, when, or how question about a person) has affirmed and established, providing a verifiable accounting (‘aman – as a singular male individual has presented trustworthy and reliable evidence to confirm, confidently upholding (hifil perfect active third-person masculine singular – for a period of time this individual enlivens the revelation)) of our message (la shemuwa’ah ‘anachnuw – our report, announcement, and revelation)?
And (wa) to whom (‘el my – through whom and for whom [from 1QIsa as the MT has on whom]) have the Zarowa’ | the Productive Shepherd, Sacrificial Lamb, and the Sower of Seeds Cultivating the Harvest (Zarowa’ – the Arm of God and the Shepherd; from zara’ – to sow seeds which produce new life and yield fruit) of Yahowah (Yahowah – the proper pronunciation of YaHoWaH, our ‘elowah – God as directed in His ToWRaH – teaching regarding His HaYaH – existence and our 546ShaLoWM – restoration) been revealed and made openly known (galah – been uncovered and exposed, openly displayed and identified (nifal perfect – the individual disclosing their identity is being revealed in the process of this disclosure at this moment in time))?” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Saves / Isaiah 53:1)
My ‘aman can be rendered as “who has affirmed,” “where is it established,” “what has been proven,” “how was it verified and authenticated,” “when will it be revealed,” and “why has the truth been provided.” Each of these six translations of my ‘aman was intended for your edification. So, you may want to pause and think about the implications.
La shemuwa’ah ‘anachnuw speaks “of our message,” and “of the proper approach to our revelation, report, and announcement.” Therefore, in this case, ‘anachnuw | our can represent our Heavenly Father and Spiritual Mother, Yasha’yah and Yahowah, all of the prophets, or the most important Zarowa’, Moseh and Dowd. Since Yahowah inspired each, they all speak as one.
Therefore, recognizing that “our” speaks of a unified position regarding identifying and disclosing the role of the Zarowa’, my ‘aman asks Yisra’elites to identify a single individual who is actively and publicly promoting an accurate and verifiable account of the Zarowa’s identity and purpose. And based upon the way the question is phrased, the Herald is not a prophet but, instead, someone correctly conveying their message.
So, while it is interesting to note that there would be and now is just one individual among billions of people publishing an accurate rendition of Yahowah’s testimony along with a principled approach to Yasha’yah’s revelations, the second question is even more specific. The person correctly affirming Yasha’yah’s prophetic revelations, such that what he is writing is consistent with 547Yahowah’s intent, is the only one to whom the identity of the Zarowa’ | Protective Shepherd and Sacrificial Lamb has been revealed and, of course, the lone individual making any of this widely known.
After 2,700 years of no one doing either, now, just ten years prior to the fruition of Yasha’yah’s prophecies and the return of the Zarowa’, there is someone doing both of these things. And while that is very significant in and of itself, when these questions are posed before the most descriptive presentation of what would be achieved by the Zarowa’, the implications are profoundly important.
Zarowa’ is derived from zera’ | seed and sowing. It can be rendered as a title, descriptive term, or actionable idea: “strong arm, prevailing influence, or fruitful outreach.” It addresses someone responsible for “developing offspring, serving as a shepherd, a protective ram leading the flock, or sacrificial lamb.” A Zarowa’ “sows and cultivates seeds such that they take root and grow to produce new life and a productive harvest.” Like zera’ | seed, zarowa’ is pluralistic, meaning that it can be perceived in various ways, as one or several.
This known, the Zarowa’ are Yahowah’s as their work is pursuant to His influence and plan. They have no relevance apart from God.
In the nifal stem, where the subject carries out and receives the action of the verb, galah | to reveal, by disclosing the identity of the Zarowa’, the individual in question is made known through his revelation. Moreover, after uncovering the evidence, this indicated that he put what he discovered on display so that the information is exposed for all to see.
This associate zarowa’, and there is only one of him in this role according to the syntax, has meticulously affirmed and established Yahowah’s message, providing a verifiable accounting of what is recorded through the Naby’ 548Yasha’yah. He has also set Dowd’s fulfillment of Pesach within the context of the Messiah serving as the Zarowa’. Therefore, the three Zarowa’ reveal the way Home.
Since this prophecy is yet another wrongly claimed by Christians, let’s be clear: the opening line does not address the mythical misnomer of faithful fantasies, “Jesus.” At most, it is seeking to identify someone who perceives and presents the Passover Lamb correctly – as a Zarowa’ – which necessitates viewing him from the perspective provided by Moseh and Dowd.
Torching the lie behind the world’s most popular myth, “Jesus” did not “‘aman – provide a verifiable accounting” of anything Yahowah revealed because, even if we pretend the Christian counterfeit existed, there is no record of him writing anything down to read. Not a single word Gospel Jesus is said to have spoken was reliably recorded in Hebrew – the language of revelation. Moreover, even in the mythology of the Gospels, the counterfeit did not identify himself as the Passover Lamb, much less as a Zarowa’. When Christian pundits claim Isaiah 53 for their misnomer, and yet fail to acknowledge the sacrificial lamb’s association with Passover, it proves that they cannot process the words they are reading.
Therefore, the opening line of the prophecy depicting the role of the Passover Lamb was written about the Choter, Qowl, and Basar, who would properly present what follows after correctly identifying Moseh and Dowd as the foremost Zarowa’. And that is no easy task as becomes evident since, with this lone exception, no one else has correlated these prophecies in Yasha’yah / Isaiah with Dowd honoring what Moseh wrote as Zarowa’.
It is so disastrous for the religion, Isaiah 53 is rejected in Judaism, with rabbis skipping over it in their annual reading schedules. Since it clearly predicts that the role of the Passover Lamb would be fulfilled, along with the 549purpose of UnYeasted Bread, this prophecy undermines Judaism. But the problem is worse for Christians because they rob God’s Son of what he achieved to promote their counterfeit.
The reason that Yasha’yah’s presentation of the Passover Lamb begins by introducing us to someone who has correctly assessed the merit of this prophecy, especially in light of the Zarowa’, is that without these insights and this perspective, Yasha’yah / Isaiah 53 cannot be understood – and there is no way to benefit from what the Sacrificial Lamb achieved. What occurred in Yaruwshalaim on Pesach in 33 CE, while vital, is not even the most important event that transpired in year 4000 Yah (with Matsah garnering that distinction), much less the fulcrum upon which Yahowah’s relationship with humankind hinges.
God’s story is not limited to one person or a single event. It is comprised of seven acts unfolding over 7,000 years. We begin in Gan ‘Eden | the Garden of ‘Eden with an idyllic relationship between Yahowah and ‘Adam and Chawah. To facilitate our return, Yahowah established the Beryth | Covenant with ‘Abraham and Sarah in Act 2. Then, Yahowah’s Towrah | Guidance was revealed to Moseh in Act 3, teaching us what we need to know to find, respect, and approach God.
Act 4, the centerpiece of Yahowah’s story, revolves around His Chosen and Beloved, the Anointed Shepherd and Articulate King, the very Son of God – Dowd | David. God’s message to mankind is encapsulated in his life and lyrics.
Act 5 takes place in Yaruwshalaim with Dowd’s return and the fulfillment of the initial three Miqra’ey | Invitations to be Called Out and Meet Yahowah. In this way, we are welcomed into Yahowah’s Family and Home. Becoming 550perfected, immortal, and adopted, as a result of Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym, we are welcomed Home.
While Act 1 played out before there was a reference to time, and Act 2 took place over the course of seven meetings, Act 3 would require forty years to complete. Act 4 began with an eight-year-old boy and stayed focused on him through his seventieth year. A thousand years thereafter, he returns to complete Act 5 in just three days.
The 6th Act in Yahowah’s unfolding story, events play out over 32 years. The Choter is chosen and trained, committing the next twenty-five years to achieving a fruitful Harvest during Shabuw’ah – seven years prior to Dowd’s return. He will resume his work alongside ‘ElYah three years later, beginning on Pesach, when they will prepare Yisra’el for the Taruw’ah Gleaning and Yowm Kipurym Homecoming which will transpire in year 6000 Yah, also in Yaruwshalaim. Father and Son will reestablish their relationship with Yisra’el at this time, concluding the 6th Act. And in it, we are all part of that story – whether announcing, benefiting from, or being opposed to Yahowah and Dowd, the Towrah and Yisra’el.
The 7th and final Act will commence on Sukah | Camping Out when we return to ‘Eden. It is the first day of forever. It also denotes the occasion when Yahowah will elevate His children to the seventh dimension. And during this time, Dowd will reign as King.
By removing or misappropriating the events that transpired in the 5th Act, and separating them from everything else, Christians have built a religion that draws the faithful away from Yahowah. And by snoozing through the 5th Act, and later denying it existed, the bearded wonders in the black hats have lost sight of Yahowah.
While the Basar and Qowl was one of three, the Zarowa’ title correctly casts Dowd in his proper role of the Sacrificial Lamb. And so, even though there have been a 551host of commentaries written on Isaiah, apart from Yada Yahowah, none of these has sought to more accurately convey the prophet’s testimony or advance his intent. And none were composed by someone specifically addressed within the prophecy, as is the case with the chapters devoted to the Choter, Nakar, Basar, Qowl, Lama’an, Mal’ak, and Yada.
The lead Zarowa’ are Yahowah’s most capable and devoted coworkers. God prevails with Yisra’el through them. They were liberators and leaders, devoted servants and defenders, educators and examples. They were both shepherds, and both sowed the seeds which would take root and grow producing new and productive life. They were individually and collectively fruitful in their ways, accomplishing their missions. And the “little z” exists to remind Yisra’el of what they have done before it is too late to capitalize on their exemplary lives.
The most important Zarowa’, and in the leading role, is Dowd | David. He is the beloved Son of God, Yahowah’s Chosen and Firstborn, His Shepherd and Right Hand, His most prolific prophet and favorite songwriter, God’s anointed Mashyach and the past and future Melek of Yisra’el. Dowd is also the Branch, through whom the Children of the Covenant emerge and grow. And it is Dowd who is returning with Yahowah as the King of Kings. Most importantly, Dowd served as the Sacrificial Lamb of Passover, becoming our Savior. The little z is, therefore, the big Z’s Herald.
For the remnant of Yisra’el circa 5990 Yah, there are few things more relevant than appreciating what these two Zarowa’ contributed to our lives. To come home, Yahuwdym must reassess their relationship with Moseh, close their Talmud, open his Towrah, and allow him to lead them away from religious and political captivity and to the Promised Land. They must reassess their perceptions of Dowd so that they are right about Yahowah, discard their 552star, and accept him as their Mashyach, Ra’ah, Melek, and Zarowa’ – the Bakowr of ‘El. They must reevaluate their antipathy toward the Son of God so that they can properly observe Pesach and Matsah leading to Bikuwrym in recognition of what Father and Son have done for their people. To recognize the role the mighty Zarowa’ plays in their lives and come home, returning to Yahowah is in everyone’s interest. Yisra’el and Yahuwdym have been estranged for too long.
Without a descendant of ‘Abraham willing to listen or respond, Yahowah announced that He would be using a Gowy whom He has chosen to identify as a Choter, Nakry, Basar, Qowl, Mal’ak, Lama’an, and ‘Edah, the final Zarowa’ known as Yada, to reintroduce His people to His words so that they might Yada Yahowah again. And this, my beloved Yahuwd, is why Yasha’yah 52 (which is even more direct regarding this role) and 53 read as I have presented them. Consider this your wake-up call.
“Who has affirmed this accounting, where was the truth established, what has been proven, how was it verified and authenticated, when was it revealed, and why has this trustworthy evidence been provided and confidently upheld of (my ‘aman) our message, this very revelation and announcement from us (la shemuwa’ah ‘anachnuw)?
Through and for whom (‘el my) have the Zarowa’ | the Productive Shepherd, Sacrificial Lamb, and Sower of Seed for the Harvest (Zarowa’) for Yahowah (Yahowah) been revealed and made openly known (galah)?” (Yasha’yah 53:1)
The following language is similar to that used in Yasha’yah 11 to present the Choter. There, he was shown to be a sucker emerging from the original rootstock which brought forth the Branch known as Dowd. So, helping 553readers answer the opening questions, Yasha’yah was inspired to write…
“He will rise and be lifted up (‘alah – he will ascend and grow, lifting up by writing and recording what has happened and what will occur (qal imperfect active third-person masculine singular)), similar to (ka) the Sucker (ha yowneq – the Shoot growing out of the rootstock of an old stump or fallen tree, a more recent and smaller branch), before His appearance to prepare in advance of His arrival (la paneh huw’ – in His presence), much like (wa ka – being comparable to) the rootstock (ha shoresh – the source of nourishment which anchors the tree to the ground, the root of the family line) of the Land after a long drought (min ‘erets tsyah – of the Earth deprived of rain, from a barren landscape which is solitary and alone, apart from Yah).
His approach will not be perceived as particularly pleasing because he will not provide a superficial outline or shallow two-dimensional sketch (lo’ to’ar la huw’ – what he delineates will not be predicated upon some preconceived physical characteristics nor will he be distinguished based upon outward appearances because he will dig well below the surface).
He will not hold a high office, be a nobleman or king, he will not ascribe any value to the perceived status of others, nor will he be majestically attired (wa hayah lo’ hadar – he will not care about adornments, appearances, social status, heads of state, royalty, or being glorified, and he will not seek acclaim [from 1QIsa]) such that we would look to him (wa ra’ah huw’ – so that we would consider him, pay attention to what he is revealing, or perceive him as a witness (qal imperfect)).
There is nothing readily apparent (wa lo’ mar’eh – so there is nothing in plain sight or easily seen, nothing phenomenal in the form of spectacle; from mah – to ponder 554the who, what, why, when, and how of ra’ah – what is seen, perceived, and considered, or is it by supernatural revelation or visions) such that we would desire him, want to be him, or be pleased by him (wa chamad huw’ – so that we would covet him, idolize him, or express our gratitude toward him (qal imperfect)).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Delivers / Isaiah 53:2)
Apart from his translations, insights, understanding, and guidance, his devotion to Yahowah and the Zarowa’, Moseh and Dowd, the Towrah, Miqra’ey, and Beryth, Yisra’el and Yahuwdym, he’s nobody special. He is as Yahowah has described him.
It is apparent that the Choter | Sucker is a quick study and deep thinker because he is able to correctly interpret Yasha’yah’s prophecies where 125 generations over the past 2,700 years have failed. For the Nakar | Observant Foreigner to be inspired by God to accurately convey the prophet’s testimony, he has to be able to process information at a pace Yah finds acceptable.
In this pronouncement, the Basar | Herald is being lifted up as a Yowneq | Shoot growing out of the Shoresh | Rootstock of the Promised Land. Yahowah’s Mal’ak | Messenger will arise from a barren landscape, a solitary Qowl | Voice after a long silence. The specified mission of the final Zarowa’ | Sower of Seeds is to prepare Yisra’el in advance of the Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah Harvests and Yahowah’s and Dowd’s Homecoming.
Beyond this, he is a pretty ordinary fellow. You’d be hard-pressed to pick him out of a crowd. He will not be a politician, theologian, or superstar. He will not be particularly well-dressed or try to impress anyone (https://yadayah.com/About/). And no one will impress him because he has a complete disregard for authority – at least apart from Yahowah’s and Dowd’s. He will not seek acclaim or a following. He will deflect gratitude to where 555it is deserved. And it isn’t in him to sugarcoat the message to attract a crowd or grow in popularity.
The prophecies pointing to God’s final Messenger are not obscure, but nonetheless, we would have missed them if we had not been earnest in our desire to compose accurate and complete translations. It was by studying God’s vocabulary and the way He used these terms throughout His revelations that we came to appreciate their value to us. After that, we simply followed the words to their natural conclusions.
Therefore, Yahowah is correct in saying that his role is easily missed. To find Yada, the student has to be as committed to learning as God is to teaching.
This known, Yada’ sees himself as a useful implement who serves a purpose. While important to Yisra’el today, he perceives himself beneath the status of the other characters in God’s story. He is more comfortable being seen as a reporter, albeit a thoughtful one. Although, if being forthright, it’s clear that Yahowah intends much more.
But even at that, those who have made an honest effort to convey God’s story in His words have not been very well received. This is because Yahowah’s testimony embarrasses the empowered and undermines the credibility of political parties, religious institutions, military ambitions, patriotic agendas, social mores, and conspiracy theories – all while discombobulating the Progressives in control of academia as well as the thought police operating within social and mainstream media.
For most of human history, Yahowah’s testimony wasn’t a problem for the proponents of such human endeavors because very few people were afforded access to a dissenting message and an irritating herald would have been hunted down, tortured, and killed. However, today, since the internet makes it possible for the world to hear a 556lone witness, those with a vested interest in silencing him have other tools at their disposal to get him to cease and desist. In my case, there have been upwards of a thousand death threats. Although, they have amounted to nothing more than spitting into the wind, or toward the presence of the Spirit as the case may be. Yah protects His own.
Stating the obvious, Yahowah inspired Yasha’yah to write about the Choter and Shalomoh to speak of the Nakry. And this individual is now presented as a Voice and as a Herald. He is impressive by God’s standards, not man’s. He, like Dowd, will tend to be verbose, lo’ to’ar | never dumbing it down with a superficial outline. But unlike Dowd, his Herald lo’ hadar | is not a nobleman or king. The Witness to the Zarowa’ would also differ from the One who was bequeathed with every imaginable accolade throughout the 89th Mizmowr in that lo’ mar’eh | there would be nothing readily apparent about him that would chamad huw’ | inspire reverence as is appropriate toward Dowd.
To his credit, the Basar does not “seek accolades or to be honored.” Frustrating to many, “lo’ hadar – he shows no partiality and does not ascribe to any form of human authority, nor does he value status.” In nothing more than flip flops and tropical attire, “he is not adorned to appear royal or to enhance his position among men.” Even with an entire chapter devoted to how Yahowah would equip and use the Choter in Yasha’yah 11, the Zarowa’s Herald has gone largely unnoticed.
God’s final Witness lives to extol the words of the prophets, allowing God to speak for Himself through them. His credibility is derived from what Yahowah inspired actual naby’ to write 2,500 to 3,500 years ago. There is nothing phenomenal about what he has done, other than he responded as Yahowah asked and has continued to fulfill what was foretold of him. At 10 to 12 hours per day, six to seven days a week, 50 to 52 weeks a year, for 23 years 557without monetary compensation while being criticized, slandered, and sometimes threatened by the religious, political, patriotic, and conspiratorial, there isn’t much “chamad huw’ – to covet” about the mission – although he loves it.
Considering the scarcity of candidates and the importance of the message, Yahowah has sought to overcome the unimpressive nature of this man by mentioning him in this way, expecting that, by doing so, more people would listen. After all, why would Yahowah pose these two probing introductory questions after providing the answer in the previous chapter?
Today, there are some, particularly Muslims, who have rather famously tried to assassinate their religious and political opponents. In the West, ridicule has replaced torture while censorship, rather than murder, is deployed as the means to stop the promotion of a contrarian message. Bazah speaks of the ad hominem fallacy, whereby an otherwise logically irrefutable message is devalued by demeaning and discrediting the messenger – publicly crucifying his or her reputation. And chadel addresses the intended result, which is to get the witness to cease and desist, effectively stopping the dissemination of the message by slandering the source. It is becoming ever more common for the unthinking to impugn the motives of the messenger whose words they find offensive.
Should someone covet this opportunity to spend 100,000 hours translating and contemplating the word of God during the first of three lives, be aware, that while rewarding, it isn’t all rainbows and sunshine…
“He will be scoffed at and ridiculed, dismissed and discredited (bazah – he will be held in contempt and censored, he will be called uninformed, unimportant, viewed as vile, considered worthless, and perceived as despicable (nifal participle – with those who demonstrably 558and actively disrespect and despise him will be perceived as disgusting)), by a wide variety and a considerable number of individuals who (‘iysh ‘iysh – by a great many people) will try to stop him (wa chadel – who will deliberately isolate and rebuff him, attempting to get him to cease and desist, rejecting and besmirching him to debilitate and incapacitate his efforts; from chadal – to stop, cease, desist, forego, and leave unfinished in the end [while chadel is not suffixed as a verb or with a pronoun, that is the only way to properly convey its primary meaning, which is to stop]).
Even so, Yada’ will come to know, understand, and acknowledge (wa yada’ – nonetheless, Yada’ will become familiar with, comprehend, and recognize, discover and disclose (qal noun participle active – actually, genuinely, and literally as a verbal adjective descriptive of an individual making the process of evolving from knowing to understanding to acknowledging active and demonstrative) [from 1QIsaa – the Great Isaiah Scroll unearthed above Qumran – where yada’ is active versus passive in the Masoretic Text]) the implications of sorrow and suffering (mak’ob – the cause and consequence of being harmed and grieved by pondering the impetus behind the anguish of emotional reactions and being traumatized; from mah – to consider the reasons behind ka’ab – agony and angst) of being plagued and afflicted by evil (choly – of being sickened and weakened by a malevolent and malignant pandemic, mortally injured by the malady of holiness; from chalah – to weaken and sicken by an infectious disease, chuwl – to twist and distort, and chalal – to profane by making common and thus to corrupt via the invasive nature of religion and government).
And as such (ka – accordingly and as a result), from him (min huw’), the presence (paneh – the appearance and facing it is turned away) will be averted (masther – is avoided (hifil participle active)).
559We will censor him, slandering him as uninformed, unimportant, and disreputable as we scoff at and ridicule him, dismissing and discrediting him (wa bazah huw’ – we will view him as vile, consider him worthless as we perceive him to be despicable, holding him in contempt (nifal participle – with those who demonstrably and actively show disrespect and despise him will be seen as disgusting) [from 1QIsa where the verb was scribed with the subject written in the second-person plural, we, rather than third-person singular, he, and then suffixed with huw’ | he as the object]), because (wa) we will not properly assess his contribution by contemplating what he has composed (lo’ chashab huw’ – we will not think and thus we will fail to consider the value of his account, we will not impute the proper credit to the reporting he is offering due to our collective failure to exercise good judgment (qal perfect – when we were actually afforded the opportunity to reconsider, we did not think)).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Liberates / Isaiah 53:3)
This prophecy, much like the one attributed to the “son” in Yasha’yah / Isaiah 9, is so integrated into Christian mythology, the realization that the opening lines are focused upon the Herald whose Voice was chosen to call God’s people home, rather than “Jesus,” will be a tough one for believers to accept. And yet, the reasons Yahowah conveyed this prophecy regarding His Son’s sacrifice as the Passover Lamb in this manner have profound implications that we’d be wise to consider.
Yahowah, through His prophets, and in particular through Moseh, Shamuw’el, Dowd, Yasha’yah, Howsha’, Yirma’yah, Zakaryah, and Mal’aky, foretold what He and His Son were going to do for the Children of Yisra’el. God provided prophecies delineating when, where, and how the Zarowa’ Dowd would fulfill His promise to redeem them – even explaining He and His Son’s motivations in addition to His people’s renunciations.
560Nonetheless, in the Yowbel year of 4000 Yah, when Dowd did what he had avowed, no one noticed. Exacerbating the problem, the religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam were allowed to fester and go viral because of His people’s collective failure to understand and appreciate what had transpired.
Two thousand years later, nothing has changed. Jews aggressively and viciously denounce the realization that the Messiah and Son of God fulfilled Chag Matsah and remain clueless regarding the role Dowd plays in establishing the Covenant. And Christians have absconded with Dowd’s every accolade and achievement, claiming his prophecies for their counterfeit. They have replaced the Towrah, Covenant, and Invitations to Meet, ignored UnYeasted Bread, and then changed Firstborn Children into Easter – a Babylonian holiday. As for Muslims, the Islamic Era begins with Muhammad’s ill-fated attempt to convince Yathrib’s rabbis that he was the awaited Messiah. Making matters worse, he would go on to protest that Issa | “Jesus,” who he wrongly assumed was the previous Messiah, was not actually killed but had only faked his death.
So, into this quagmire of religious contentiousness and buffoonery, Yasha’yah reintroduces Dowd’s Herald. He would study the prophets and set the record straight, giving Father and Son credit for what they accomplished so that His people would know how to capitalize upon the Zarowa’s sacrifice. He would become the first since Mal’aky to clarify that Dowd was the Shepherd and the Lamb, and that Dowd is the returning Messiah and King.
Especially relevant, since Dowd experienced and endured the fulfillment of Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym through the deployment of His basar | body and nepesh | consciousness, it was the Son of God who suffered to immortalize and perfect us, to redeem and restore us. So, when his people reject, discount, and ignore, even worse, 561mischaracterize what he suffered to heal them, negating the benefits he sought to provide, they antagonize and annoy the Almighty, inflaming His righteous indignation.
Therefore, while Moseh, by explaining how to properly celebrate Pesach, Matsah, Bikuwrym, and Shabuw’ah, is vastly more important than the Messenger who is bringing what occurred to your attention, Dowd’s sacrifice is for naught until his people recognize how to capitalize upon what he has done for them. Similarly, while Dowd’s eyewitness testimony explaining how he enabled Yahowah’s promises is more important than the Herald’s translations of the process and the ensuing benefits, the Yahuwdym who embrace what God has done for them will do so because Yahowah inspired this accounting to awaken His people from their collective stupor.
Most who speak for Yahowah are bazah | scoffed at and ridiculed. Moseh and Dowd, however, were rare exceptions – as they were only harassed by fellow Jews. And rather than being dismissed and discredited, according to the folklore, “Jesus” was turned into a god – which is the antithesis of bazah. So, even though I’m the only one of the three Zarowa’ to be bazah, it’s a privilege I have come to cherish. There is no joy in being despised for one’s own mistakes, but it is an honor to absorb the stripes of men when the impetus is sharing Yahowah’s testimony with His people. I love my wife and life, but there is nothing more satisfying than doing something that pleases Yah.
This prophecy states that there will be ‘iysh ‘iysh | a wide variety and a considerable number of individuals who will try to chadel | stop Yahowah’s messenger. Only one man, Pharaoh, tried to stop Moseh, and two, Sha’uwl and ‘Abshalowm, opposed Dowd. So, once again, the third Zarowa’ is unique in this regard. Whether it is Muslims who want him dead, Christians who want him silenced, religious Jews who want him to cease and desist, or Progressives who are prone to suspend his access to their 562internet platforms, Yahowah’s Basar is familiar with being besmirched and censured.
Personally, I’m pleased to see that Yahowah is acknowledging that His Witness will need to have a backbone and thick skin to persevere. Not only is overcoming adversity necessary to develop the character and courage needed to rail against the crowd, but it is also how we develop empathy and compassion. It is what made Dowd’s life and lyrics so exemplary. But it should help readers appreciate that there is no reason to be envious. I would not want Dowd’s job knowing the heartache that comes with it, and you should not want mine unless you are immune to criticism.
Yada’ is presented as a participle noun. This makes yada’ a descriptive and engaged depiction of the individual who is pursuing mak’ob and choly | the implications of the trauma and suffering inflicted as a result of the plague we know as religion. This is a major topic that is covered throughout Yada Yahowah and, particularly, in An Introduction to God, Observations, Coming Home, Babel, Twistianity, and God Damn Religion. It is the most prevalent theme in the Mizmowr, Yasha’yah, Yirma’yah, and Howsha’ – and is pervasive throughout the Towrah.
The correction from the passive to active voice found in the Great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaa) is significant in this context. It means that Yada’ | the knowledgeable individual depicted by the verbal noun is actively pursuing an understanding of the cause and consequence of sorrow and grief and that he is then acknowledging the evil associated with the malady of holiness. These things are not being done to him as would be the case in the passive voice. Therefore, this individual cannot be the Passover Lamb. While that depiction will follow, the prophet is still instructing his readers about the Herald who will be explaining these events rather than enduring them. So 563much for the notion that this is the “Song of the Suffering Servant.”
Mak’ob is telling in this regard. If God had wanted to say that Yada’ was going to be harmed and suffer, not only would yada’ have to be passive, ka’ab | agony and anguish would have sufficed. There would have been no reason to augment it with mah | to question the who, what, where, why, when, and how implications of sorrow and suffering.
Choly, which is often transliterated as holy, is addressing the cause of the afflictions being questioned by Yada’. Choly is the malady of holiness and the plague of evil known to the world as religion. It is the most viral pandemic to infect and debilitate humankind. And so, while all three Zarowa’ spoke out against religion, none were plagued as a result of being religious. Moreover, this is a cerebral exercise. Introduced by yada’ | to know and understand, to recognize and acknowledge, the witness will assess the cause and implications of being harmed by the malevolent and malignant pandemic of holiness associated with religion.
To keep us from misconstruing this pronouncement, misinterpreting it to infer that the Passover Lamb was infected with mak’ob choly, Yasha’yah stated, “Accordingly, from him, the presence is averted.” He will, therefore, avoid suffering from the plague of religion. And when directed at the final Witness, as he was promised 23 years ago in the 91st Psalm, he, his family, and home are impervious to attack because mal’akym have been assigned to protect him while he accomplishes the mission.
Other than Sha’uwl | Paul who, 1,500 years later as a raving lunatic, assailed the Towrah, no one is attempting to censor or slander Moseh | Moses. Even those who reject the Towrah do not dismiss him as disreputable.
Dowd’s voice has never been suppressed. The rabbis, who don’t respect him, still recite his Psalms. And the 564handful of scholars who have tried to deny his existence have been impugned by the archeological evidence affirming his role in uniting Yisra’el, building the City of David in Yaruwshalaim, and defending his people.
Religious Jews dismiss and discredit everything associated with the fulfillment of Passover by the Messiah so bazah could only apply to him from the viewpoint of Judaism. However, the Christians who wrongly claim this prophecy on behalf of their “Jesus Christ” are being irrational. Rather than perceive him as unimportant and disreputable, they have turned him into their god.
Today, Progressive politicians are engaged in a self-righteous crusade to expunge all beliefs contrary to their own from the internet. During a previous edit in 2022, on “Earth Day,” the European Union passed the Digital Services Act to give liberal politicians de facto control over what is posted and shared online. Those who make a living by lying are seeking to silence any dissenting voice. Unable to refute the charges brought against their anti-God, anti-Semitic, anti-personal responsibility, and anti-truth agendas, Progressives slander and then silence the messenger.
You should be aware that access to Yada Yahowah will continue to be suppressed. Read it while you are able. Further, this portion of the prophecy may explain the reason Yahowah is deploying two Witnesses during the last days. The realization that ‘ElYah will be one of them should be sufficient to understand that they will be empowered to speak for Yahowah as never before – substantially exceeding normal human limitations. When the internet is shuttered to God’s message, He will deliver it supernaturally – a final opportunity to come Home.
The concluding phrase of the 3rd statement applies to all three Zarowa’, albeit to differing degrees. Moseh’s character and intellect are well beyond what is credited to 565him. His oratory in Dabarym is brilliant, equally uplifting and liberating, empowering and enriching. Additionally, Jews have superseded the Towrah with their Talmud and Christians have replaced it with their New Testament. Therefore, Moseh is disrespected.
Christians have robbed Dowd of his titles and stolen the promises made by Yahowah to him to give their absurd faith a veneer of credibility. It is clownish to replace Yahowah, Moseh, and Dowd with the Lord, Paul, and Jesus. It is like pitting the universe against three turds.
Obviously, Jews do not recognize Dowd as their returning Messiah and King, much less as the Son of God or Savior. The Haredim do, however, incorporate portions of his Mizmowr into their prayers – so he is not completely forgotten, just misappropriated and discredited.
Since neither Jews nor Christians recognize Dowd as the Passover Lamb, his purpose and sacrifice are improperly assessed and dismissed. The religious lo’ chashab | universally fail to consider what he has done. And of course, turning the lamb into a god ranks up there with the least appropriate assessments of all time. Although to be fair, the depiction of a tortured and dead god on a stick may be the most insulting of all graven images. Egypt’s scarab beetle was more appealing.
As for the third zarowa’, after having composed the translations and commentary for 33 books, in addition to providing 10,000 hours of audio programming, all without public accolade or compensation, a case could be made that his commitment to remind God’s people of their story and call them home may be underappreciated too. But that really isn’t the point. Yasha’yah is scolding Yahuwdym for their failure to consider what Yahowah’s prophets and messengers have revealed over the years. The truth has been available but not the good sense or the will to read it.
566The Children of Yisra’el would be wise to reassess the Zarowa’ and garner a greater appreciation for the role Yahowah intended each to play in the lives of His people. In particular, we have Moseh as the Liberator who disclosed the Towrah, Dowd as the Son of God, the Shepherd, Messiah, and King who united, defended, and guided his people, and who served as the Passover Lamb to open the door to Shamaym | Heaven.
The ensuing prophetic portrayal of the fulfillment of Pesach and Matsah, leading to Bikuwrym, begins with a statement of purpose. This is a challenging translation because the sacrifice must enjoin UnYeasted Bread with Passover to achieve the specified results, because while fulfilled by the same individual, the process was different. As such, in Yasha’yah 53:4, the pronoun huw’ serves to identify Dowd in the initial statement of purpose. Then in Yasha’yah 53:5, huw’ can represent “he” as in the Messiah during the piercing experience of Pesach, or “it” if depicting his physical body. Huw’ then becomes “it” when referencing the crushing transition to Matsah because huw’ is then identifying Dowd’s nepesh | consciousness which makes the Zarowa’ aware of and responsive to what his soul is enduring.
And while this explanation is sufficient to render the first two sentences of Isaiah 53:4 and 5 adroitly, the third statement is problematic in both verses. Dowd’s body and soul are both involved in the fulfillment of the initial Miqra’ey – and the contribution of each is improperly assessed by God’s people.
And yes, referring to Dowd’s soul as an “it” is disquieting, but nonetheless, even the Messiah’s nepesh is a thing – something Yahowah projected to accomplish His Son’s intent. This, however, gets a bit confusing because, with us, our soul represents us as a person. And since in Hebrew, “it” and “he” are scribed identically, this challenge is unique to translation.
567“Surely (‘aken – it can be verified as accurate and true that indeed), the malignant and malevolent pandemic of twisted perversions which plague and weaken us (choly ‘anachnuw – the infectious and injurious diseases which sicken us and our religious maladies which mortally wound us by distorting the truth), he will lift from us, accept, and carry away (huw’ nasa’ – he [the Zarowa’] will, himself, sustain on behalf of the relationship and remove at this moment in time, actually forgiving (qal perfect third-person masculine singular active)).
The cause and consequence of our pain and suffering (wa mak’ob ‘anachnuw’ – the questions which anguish us and make us miserable and the implications of our grief; from mah – to consider the reasons behind ka’ab – agony and anguish), he will incur and bear them (sabal hem – he [Dowd] will pull them away, initiating the process to bear them as if they were his burdens to remove (qal perfect)).
And yet (wa), we assess his overall contribution as (‘anachnuw chashab huw’ – we will think and consider him [the Zarowa’] (qal perfect)) poignantly inflicted (naga’ – demonstrably damaged, befallen, and plagued (qal passive participle)) and (wa – [from 1QIsa]) stricken (nakah – beaten and slain, made to suffer (hofal passive – the beatings were imposed upon him in a vivid and demonstrable way)) by God (‘elohym), in addition to being humiliated for his testimony and abused for his response (wa ‘anah – even denied and mistreated for his [Dowd’s] answers and punished for his reply (pual participle passive participle – the object suffers the effect)).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Delivers / Isaiah 53:4)
On Pesach and Matsah the Zarowa’ was burdened with the guilt of the Covenant’s Children. Dowd chose to redeem his brethren by accepting the consequence and penalty they would otherwise have been due, while at the 568same time carrying away his people’s guilt so that they would appear perfect before God.
The first Zarowa’, Moseh, would explain the purpose of Passover to the Children of Yisra’el, recording their experience and Yahowah’s Instructions in the Towrah. The second Zarowa’, Dowd, would serve as the prophetic eyewitness to reveal what he would experience as he fulfilled Pesach and Matsah on behalf of Bikuwrym. The third Zarowa’ would serve as a Herald to bring this to the attention of Yisra’el before Dowd’s return to fulfill Yowm Kipurym.
While choly and mak’ob are familiar terms, the verbs pertaining to them are different than what we experienced in the previous statement. With the fulfillment of Passover and Matsah, Yisra’el is ‘aken | assured that the choly | religious perversions which have plagued them were nasa’ | lifted from them and taken away by the Zarowa’. Likewise, while mak’ob | that which was responsible for their pain and suffering was sabal | incurred by Dowd’s nepesh | soul as part of his sacrifice.
There is also the reoccurrence of the verb, chashab | to assess, but this time it is not negated and is directed toward naga’ and nakah | inflicted and stricken. This indicates that the Jewish people would wrongly assume that the Pesach ‘Ayl suffered because God saw fit to punish him for his sacrifice – which is a very disturbing perversion of reality. And yet, so much of Jewish history is stained by the people’s collective failure to appreciate the role Dowd played as the Passover Lamb.
Relative to the sacrifice of the Zarowa’, ‘anah has long been one of my favorite words because its positive and negative implications are so fitting. ‘Anah’s primary definition is to reply, respond, and answer, as well as to provide testimony. As such, Yahowah encourages us to ‘anah | reply to His Miqra’ey | Invitations to Meet. The 569implication is that those who ‘anah | respond to God in this way will be welcomed into His Home and Family.
While that is entirely positive, on the darker side of this proposition, Yahowah allowed His Son’s basar | body and nepesh | consciousness to be ‘anah | afflicted and abased on Pesach and Matsah. His sacrifice was so that his people could respond to his gift and celebrate by ‘anah | availing themselves of the result on Bikuwrym. Those who ‘anah Yahowah are not ‘anah by God from the perspective of the word’s most positive and negative connotations.
“He will be pierced through (wa huw’ chalal – it [Dowd’s corporeal body] will be fatally wounded by the penetration of sharp objects into the body, then profaned, defiled, desecrated, and dishonored (polal passive participle – the one suffering endures the effect in an uncommonly brutal manner)) for us breaching our relationship through religious and political rebellion (min pasha’ ‘anachnuw – for our national, cultural, and societal revolt, our defiant crimes and transgressions, our insurgency against authority, and casting off our former allegiance; from pasa’ – pervasive missteps (pual passive participle)).
Then he will be separated and crushed under tremendous pressure (wa daka’ – He [Dowd’s nepesh | consciousness removed from the body] will be placed under tremendous compression and gravity [corrected by referencing 1QIsa]) for our guilt because we were wrong (min ‘awon ‘anachnuw – because we pervert and corrupt as a result of our immorality, iniquity, depravity, and resulting punishment; from ‘awah – to bend and twist, to distort and pervert).
So (wa – also [from 1QIsa]) the punishment (musar – chastisement and rebuke, discipline and correction, the shackles and chains) will be upon him (‘al huw’ – will be on him [the Zarowa’s nepesh | soul]) for our 570reconciliation (shalowm ‘anachnuw – our complete restoration, our wellbeing and benefit, our tranquility and peace, our safety and salvation; from shalam – restitution and recompense, payment for restoration).
Therefore, by his scourging blows (wa ba chabuwrah huw’ – then with stripes from a whip which left him [Dowd’s body] wounded with black and blue welts and deep bruising; from chabar – to league and ally together, to unite and be bound), we will be restored, healed, and repaired (rapha’ la ‘anachnuw – we will be mended and made whole; having all sickness and disease removed promoting complete renewal and restoration).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Liberates / Isaiah 53:5)
Had this prophetic portrayal of our salvation through the fulfillment of Pesach and Matsah not included the two references to the Zarowa’, we would not have known that Yasha’yah was speaking of what Dowd would accomplish on our behalf. But with these acknowledgments, we can appreciate how this prophecy dovetails with the 22nd and 88th Mizmowr / Psalms – with the Towrah completing this portrait of our salvation.
Chalal was chosen because it is the perfect word for the occasion. It means: “to pierce,” and speaks of “the penetration of sharp objects into the body which wound, harm, and kill.” Chalal tells us how Dowd’s body would suffer unto death. It describes the means of inflicting the specific form of capital punishment used by the Roman occupiers of Judea – crucifixion – the torturous murder of the lamb painstakingly detailed by Dowd in his 22nd Song and by the Prophet Zakaryah.
We now have three independent affirmations of the Passover Lamb dying while subjected to the form of crucifixion the Romans would invent, with their prophecies written two to six centuries before Rome existed. When we then combine these three witnesses with what Dowd 571revealed to Dany’el circa 560 BCE, we are afforded the exact day the Zarowa’ would enter Jerusalem to fulfill the Miqra’ey. Recognizing that multiple copies of all four books have been found in the caves above Qumran dating to the 2nd century BCE, we have uncontroversial proof that these prophecies were inspired – affirming that we can trust them.
Having made the transition from identifying the Herald who would explain this prophecy, to our Savior who endured it, we see how Father and Son worked collaboratively to fulfill Pesach and Matsah so that we might enjoy Bikuwrym – which is why there is the ym | plural suffix. Thankfully, Yahowah loves His Family more than He hates our perversity or this depiction of our reconciliation and redemption would not have been possible.
The Zarowa’s willingness to endure my punishment to cure me, as undeserving and flawed as I am, is the ultimate gift. And since he endured it, the least any of us can do is accept his generosity gratefully. To deny or reject it is an insult to Father and Son. And for this reason, God despises Judaism and Christianity.
Dowd, in the 22nd Mizmowr / Psalm, makes it clear that his body was bruised and bloodied, even pierced, by the Romans but it was not broken. Further, based on the opening line of the 22nd Mizmowr / Psalm, we realize that Yahowah’s Set-Apart Spirit separated from His Son prior to his last breath. The Lamb’s body died, was placed in a sepulcher, and then was incinerated later that night. Therefore, while the Zarowa’s basar | body was not “daka’ – crushed,” it was necessary for Dowd’s nepesh | soul to endure the immense gravity of She’owl | Hell to redeem his people during Matsah. This distinction is the impetus for differentiating between he / Dowd and it / his nepesh throughout this prophecy. Since the consciousness enduring all of this came from God’s beloved Son, 572referencing his soul would have sufficed throughout so long as we are cognizant of the respective roles played by Father and Son.
Ha Mashyach suffered to resolve “min pasha’ ‘anachnuw – the individual and collective propensity to bend and twist, to distort and pervert” the Word of God. The Zarowa’s nepesh | soul would endure the “musar – punishment others deserved” for the revolt against the very means to salvation he was enabling.
In this way, the relationship with Yahowah “shalowm – was reconciled.” Father and Son did what was required to shalowm | restore the Covenant Family. His method was through “shalowm – restitution and recompense – a ransom payment for reconciliation and restoration of the relationship.”
As for God’s people, they are being equated to sheeple following the wrong shepherds. They have become an unruly flock of stubborn goats, feasting upon the rubbish of religion and politics – the mitsraym of man. Through the self-delusion and the purposeful deception of rabbis, they have stumbled, walking away from God. The consequence of “turning to the way of man” is judgment, resulting in either punishment or death.
“Collectively (kol – all together), we (‘anachnuw) are like sheep in a flock (ka ha tso’n – similar to a herd of goats and migrating animals in a collective), misled and deceived (ta’ah – errant and wandering away, staggered while intoxicated, betrayed, having been misinformed, lost without purpose or goal (qal perfect)), with humankind (‘iysh – people) turning (panah – changing direction and turning) his own way (la derek huw’).
And so (wa), Yahowah (Yahowah – a transliteration of , our ‘elowah | God as directed in His Towrah | teaching regarding His hayah | existence) will cause the guilt associated with having twisted and distorted the 573truth and resulting punishment (‘eth ‘awon – with the revolting crime and resulting liability of rejecting the proper guidance for our lives, especially our tendency to bend and twist, pervert and distort reality) of us all (kol ‘anachnuw) to be associated with him (paga’ ba huw’ – to impact him so that He can make intercession and intervene for us (hifil perfect)).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Saves / Isaiah 53:6)
I told you so.
This is the synthesis of the Towrah’s promise to provide salvation through the Miqra’ey. The Zarowa’ was the implement. And that is why the message presented within Yasha’yah 53 is so vital for us to understand. Therefore, I thought I might convey it in a song written from Yah’s perspective…
Yahowah Sings to Yisra’el…Come Home!
I Sing for My People,
Because you have become so feeble.
You could have flown like an eagle.
Instead, you’ve become like other sheeple.
I chose you, but you have not chosen Me.
So now I plead, Let My Towrah set you free.
My Beryth is the key. I hope you agree.
Please come back Home to Me.
Yahowah, that is my name, and to Yisra’el I came.
Yet you denied My acclaim.
You fled My flame.
You erased My name as if your favorite game.
I am Yahowah, that is My name.
There are none who share My fame.
To build a family is My aim.
All for your gain.
574I am Yahowah, and I am God.
Do not be awed; neither should you applaud.
Just drop the fraud, it’s a nasty façade.
Leave Babel unshod, no longer so flawed.
I chose you, but you have not chosen Me.
So now I plead, Let My Towrah set you free.
My Beryth is the key. I hope you agree.
Please come back Home to Me.
It began in Eden and led to Yisra’el.
A home for ‘Abraham and Ya’aqob to dwell.
A place for Sarah and Leah to do well.
And yet it is there that Ahab and Jezebel fell.
I am the God of the Prophets Yasha’yah and Zakaryah.
I am the ‘elohym of Yow’el and Yirmayah,
The God of the Choter with the chutzpah for Yada Yah.
I am Yahowah.
Your Messiah returns. He’s been here before.
Your guilt he bore. He opened the door.
Of this and much more, I swore.
So go explore, it is foretold in his Mizmowr.
I chose you, but you have not chosen Me.
So now I plead, Let My Towrah set you free.
My Beryth is the key. I hope you agree.
Please come back Home to Me.
My Son Dowd, My Beloved, is the Chosen One.
Your salvation he won, it’s already done.
For this, he will be as bright as the sun.
From this truth, do not run.
I have always loved you.
I only wish you knew.
Yet you don’t have a clue, such nonsense you 575spew.
It is why the harvest will be so few.
You were unwilling to listen to My Voice.
You have always made the wrong choice.
There has been nothing to rejoice.
And it has led to a contentious divorce.
I chose you, but you have not chosen Me.
So now I plead, Let My Towrah set you free.
My Beryth is the key. I hope you agree.
Please come back Home to Me.
There is so little time and there’s been so much slime.
Step away from the grime,
Leave the scene of this crime.
For this, My Son laid it all on the line.
There will be a harvest on Shabuw’ah.
A gleaning of Yisra’el during Taruw’ah.
On Kipurym I’ll void the bitterness of Marybah.
Come Sukah, greet Me and your Messiah.
There can be happy ever after.
We can write a new chapter.
Walk away from the religious actor.
And what happened before will not matter.
I choose you, now choose Me.
Let My Towrah set you free.
My Beryth is yours should you agree.
It’s time you come back to Me.
(Yahowah Sings to Yisra’el was recorded as a song produced by the Yada Yahowah Music Group. It is available on the Yada Yahowah channel on YouTube.)
Mankind’s problems are collective. The larger the institution, the worse humans have become. As lone sheep, 576we can be good or bad, playful or mischievous, alert or oblivious. But as part of a flock, we are a horrible lot.
The history of civilization is a tragedy. The more people that are brought together by religious practices, political ideology, economic schemes, cultural rites, or conspiratorial notions the worse humankind becomes. Man’s history is plagued with despots and dictators, oppression and slavery, murderous wars and senseless destruction. Gang mentality has brought out the worst in humanity, such that the larger the herd, the more we are deceived and misled. And that is the reason Yahowah inspired Yasha’yah to write: “Collectively, we are like sheep in a flock, misled and deceived, wandering away betrayed and misinformed.” As a group, man is Mitsraym because of our propensity to be lost in Babel.
And make no mistake, Yasha’yah is using “we’ judiciously. He is speaking of fellow Yisra’elites and Yahuwdym, not gowym. That is not to say that Gentiles are not lost or that they cannot choose to be part of the flock, only that these sheep have ventured away from their Shepherds – Yahowah and Dowd.
By way of affirmation, the rationale behind Pesach and Matsah is to allow Yahowah, through the sacrifice of Dowd as the Zarowa’, to remove yeast, symbolic of religion, from our souls so that we are prepared to live within the Covenant Family. It is God’s one and only plan of salvation.
As mentioned previously, the worst of this was not that it happened, because Dowd as a prophet was fully aware of what Rome would do to torture him. His anguish comes from the fact that no one would respect his devotion or recognize his sacrifice for almost 2,000 years. Not one among his people would appreciate what he had done for them. Almost as bad, Gentiles would claim that he was still rotting in his grave so that they could credit a counterfeit. 577As great as the anguish of flogging, crucifixion, and a trip to hell would have been, the denial and disregard of Yisra’el and the grievous chicanery of the gowym hurt far worse.
“He will be exploited (nagas – he will be traumatized and burdened by a political tyrant, becoming the victim of the oppressors (nifal perfect passive)) and he will respond by being afflicted while suffering humiliating abuse (wa huw’ ‘anah – he will become the answer, allowing himself to be subjected to browbeating and forced to kneel down while being struck, enduring pain and anguish while being mistreated, subjugated and oppressed in response (nifal participle)).
And yet (wa), he will not open his mouth (lo’ patah peh huw’ – he will not respond by making a statement to free himself). Like a lamb (ka ha seh) that is brought to the slaughter (la ha tebach yabal – who is led and directed to being ruthlessly killed), and like a ewe (wa ka rachel – similar to a sheep) that is silent (‘alam – is speechless) before the presence (la panym – facing and in the presence of) its shearers (gazaz hy’ – those who cut off and fleece), so he does not respond verbally (wa lo’ patach peh huw’).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Delivers / Isaiah 53:7)
The Romans crucified those who were perceived to be a threat to their authority, anyone who might inspire people to revolt against them and seek freedom. Yasha’yah predicted as much, telling us 777 years in advance of it occurring that the Passover Lamb would be “nagas – exploited and traumatized by a political tyrant – becoming the victim of his oppressors.” And that is what occurred at the hands of Imperial Rome.
This is exceptionally revealing because there would have been only one person in Roman-occupied Judea who would have risen to the level of being a sufficient political threat to the Empire within the region to justify crucifying 578an otherwise innocent man – Dowd. He had not only been Yisra’el’s most acclaimed king, but he also fought some 66 battles and never lost one. So, if the Romans were going to murder someone in Yahuwdah, he would have been the guy.
This realization duly noted, the story of Pontius Pilate capitulating to the plot of rabid rabbis, and then washing his hands of the affair, is religious propaganda – an incongruent fairytale conjured by anti-Semitic Christians to justify Replacement Theology. For the past 2,000 years, Jews have been traumatized by Christians who have falsely accused them of perpetrating a crime that the Romans were guilty of committing.
Yasha’yah correctly presented what would transpire and it played out just that way. Jews have been accused of perpetrating the wrong crime. They did not plot to kill Dowd; their crime was to deny him!
Imperial Rome wanted the King of Yisra’el to bow down before them. When he wouldn’t comply, they beat him to the precipice of death, torturing the Messiah with their metal-studded whips. They were not only the embodiment of Babel – they were the most monstrous incarnation of the Beast the world had ever known.
This prophetic presentation of the Zarowa’ | Sacrificial Lamb fulfilling Chag Matsah conveys the Messiah’s silence. He would not address those butchering him. He would neither plead his case nor theirs. There would be no conniving plots, no mock trials, no debate, and no Q&A between the potentate of the province and King of Kings. Dowd would say and write nothing at this time. He provided no explanation whatsoever to reveal who he was or what he was doing because he had offered more than enough ten centuries earlier.
This realization is the antithesis of the fraudulent narratives found in the Christian New Testament where 579“Jesus” is tried twice, once by “high priests” and then by Rome’s procurator, defending himself on both occasions. So, while the mythical misnomer wrapped in Dowd’s accolades opened his mouth, the actual Zarowa’, Mashyach, Ben, and Melek was silent. The reason he did not respond to them should shake the Gentile world to its fabricated core while piercing the hearts and minds of Jews.
Dowd had already said it all, and so had his Father’s prophets. We were told exactly who he was and precisely why he was there. After all, why do you think Yasha’yah / Isaiah 53 was written? What was the purpose of Mizmowr 22 and 88, Yasha’yah 9 and Daniel 9, Zakaryah and Mal’aky if not to explain what would occur long before it transpired? Isn’t that the difference between prophecy and history, between inspired and provable versus propaganda and myth?
The Messiah, himself, revealed the exact day he would arrive and then explained in excruciating detail what would be done to him. But far more than this, rather than wasting his breath on those who were ignoring him or on the enemy poised to rob him of his sacrifice by misappropriating his renown, the Son allowed his Father to speak for him, prophetically presenting the benefits of what they would accomplish. It was the only sensible solution given the mindset of his people and the belligerence of the Romans.
Unlike Dowd’s first life, where his contemporary, Shamuw’el, wrote voluminously about him, and where Dowd augmented this portrait with a hundred Mizmowr and Mashal – telling his story in his own words – there would be no contemporaneous prophetic portrayal of his fulfillment of the first four Mow’edym in year 4000 Yah / 33 CE. There were no naby’ | prophets by this time and no prophecies to convey. The Zarowa’ was fulfilling them, not issuing them!
580This explains why there is such an overwhelming discontinuity between Yahowah’s Towrah, Naby’, wa Mizmowr on the one hand and the incongruous and contradictory rubbish we find in the Christian New Testament and Talmud on the other. Those who spoke for Yahowah were prophets who demonstrated that their revelations could be trusted by accurately portraying future events. And they drew our attention to what was separating mankind from God so that Yisra’el might come to appreciate what would reunite them, thereby directing their focus to Dowd and the fulfillment of the Miqra’ey on behalf of the Beryth.
Whereas the Christian New Testament is little more than an internally contradictory and historically inaccurate hearsay portrayal of religious mythology which was crafted and then augmented by those allied with the empire torturing the Lamb – who just so happened to be the Messiah, King, and Son of God.
Yes, indeed, Dowd was exploited and afflicted by Rome. As the Zarowa’ | Lamb, he was butchered by the Beast that would become the Roman Church. He had nothing to say to them. They were the enemy. And ultimately upon his return, he will annihilate them. So why waste words on such a vicious and pervasive anti-Semitic fungus?
By contrast, what really mattered was for Yahowah’s prophets, particularly Dowd and Yasha’yah, to boldly proclaim what would transpire during the most important days in human history. Yasha’yah introduced Dowd by name in the 9th chapter, revealing that he was the child who was born, the Son who was given, the great Gibowr who would serve as the living incarnation of the Word of God. Now, after affirming that the Choter, Dowd’s Basar | Herald, would give Qowl | Voice to this message prior to the Son’s return, Yasha’yah explains what the Zarowa’ would experience and achieve. And as is the case with 581everything Isaiah revealed, it played out exactly as he foretold.
What follows describes the benefits of Pesach and Matsah as an integrated whole to resolve what is plaguing humankind. It is Father and Son who are facilitating our freedom and exoneration…
“Away from (min – out of) coercion and oppression, being restrained by religion and controlled by political authorities (‘otser – hindering limitations and vexing impositions imposed by human institutions to constrain the public and deprive them of freedom), and from judgment (wa min mishpat – from being judged and condemned [corrected through 1QIsa]), he has grasped hold and accepted (laqach – he has selected, received, collected, and taken (pual perfect – with his people receiving the result, which is to be taken away from these things at this moment)) his future family lineage (wa ‘eth dowr huw’ – the generations of his people and those who are related by birth or adoption, his household) who give serious consideration to, question, and think deeply about, then speak to the profoundly important (my syth – who, as a result of this information, diligently focus on this content to contemplate, inquire about, and discuss (poel imperfect)) realization that he will be separated and cut off, ceasing to exist (ky gazar – acknowledgment that for an exceptional and valid reason, he will be divided into two distinctly separate entities as part of the plan and thus excluded (nifal passive perfect)) as part of the land of the living (min ‘erets chayym – away from the Earth and realm of biological life) for my people having breached the relationship through religious and political rebellion (pesha’ ‘am ‘any – for the national, cultural, and societal revolt of my nation, the defiant crimes and transgressions of my family, insurgency against authority, and casting off our former allegiance; from pasha’ – rebellious and revolting nature), plaguing and afflicting him (naga’ la 582huw’ – infecting and ravaging him [1QIsa reads nakah – smiting, subjugating, chastising and punishing him while the MT has naga’ – assaulting and traumatizing him]).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Liberates / Isaiah 53:8)
I told you so.
This begins with Yahowah affirming that the purpose of Pesach and Matsah is to “min – remove us from” “‘otser – being restrained, oppressed, coerced, and controlled by others.” Father and Son are committed to liberating their people from “‘otser – the vexing impositions and restrictions imposed by governments.” God is pro-life and pro-choice as a libertarian.
The lone prerequisite of the Covenant is to walk away from the confusing, invasive, and integrated nature of religion and politics, leaving Babel | Babylon and never looking back. We are perfected by Yahowah when we walk along the path Dowd has provided through the Miqra’ey – beginning with Pesach and Matsah. As a result, His chosen are considered free of these plagues and thus vindicated.
Far more than freeing us from the debilitating consequences of politics and religion, Dowd’s sacrifice on our behalf, the Zarowa’s fulfillment of Chag Matsah, delivers us from “mishpat – judgment.” The Covenant’s children are acquitted, seen as right before God, and thus not subject to trial because of what the Messiah achieved.
This is the payoff line of Yasha’yah / Isaiah 53. The Zarowa’ offered his body and soul to remove the stench and stigma of religion and politics from us so that we would be free from judgment and, therefore, become part of the Covenant Family. Our Savior grasped us by the hand and brought us Home.
All of this, from Bare’syth to Mal’aky has been presented so that those who give serious thought to what the prophets have shared might be redeemed. We have 583come to realize and accept that our Messiah and King, the Firstborn of God, was cut off from the living and separated into She’owl so that we might live in harmony with his Father. Having previously breached the conditions of the Covenant, with our acceptance we are restored into fellowship. Through the affliction of One, the many are afforded the opportunity to respond to our Father’s invitation and come Home.
The second of three Zarowa’ came for his people, to save the Children of Yisra’el, just as the first Zarowa’ promised nearly 1,500 years earlier upon leaving Mitsraym. And now, the third Zarowa’ is sharing this with you so that those representing the best of Yisra’el | Individuals who Engage and Endure with God can capitalize. This has always been a family affair, always focused upon Yisra’el.
Far from justifying the claims made on behalf of the Christian counterfeit “Jesus Christ,” this prophecy is eviscerating the myth – that is, should evisceration be possible among fables. It also destroys the pillars upon which Judaism was founded.
And speaking of nonsense, Bible publications would have you believe that my, which they correctly translated as an interrogatory in the opening statement of this prophecy, suddenly became a pronoun in Isaiah 53:8. Nonetheless, my asks the question: “How is it, and why is it, that he is continually considered and spoken of as divisive, cutting things in two, then excluded from what was decreed and from the realm of the living because of the rebellion and defiance of My people, stricken and killed for this?”
This is the foundational claim of Pauline Christianity. Sha’uwl | Paul hoodwinked billions into believing that “Jesus Christ” divided things into two parts, with an Old Testament and New Testament. Then Paul proposed that 584the Old was discarded, considered obsolete, and excluded. Even worse, Sha’uwl opined that rebellious and defiant Jews were responsible for God’s death – as if God can die or that Rome didn’t crucify the Lamb. It was all a paper-thin lie, one devoid of a shred of truth, and so Yahowah is asking this question: Do you really believe he was assaulted and afflicted for this?
In truth, the Passover Lamb came to reconcile the relationship between Yahowah and Yisra’el, not destroy it. His mission was to save his people from the likes of Rome and Roman Catholics, not hand them over to them to “‘otser – coerce and control.”
What follows is markedly different than what you will read in a Bible published by religious institutions. Most have altered God’s words to coincide with the mythology found in their Gospels. They would have us believe that their “Jesus” died among thieves but was buried with a rich man.” Neither is true, including the absurd conversation between criminals whereby one is told that he will be in paradise with “Jesus” on this day. The truth is far more compelling.
In our quest for accuracy, there are three options for who is doing the nathan | giving in this next statement. In 4QIsa as well as in the MT, we find “he gave.” In 1QIsa, we read “they gave.” Finally, the LXX presents “I gave.” Unless the speaker has changed and God is now conveying this in first person, the Septuagint’s rendering is not plausible. “They gave” is also problematic, because if this is still being presented in Yahsha’yah’s voice, “they” would be the Romans. He would have used “we” to address his fellow Jews. According to the New Testament lore, “Jesus” was “buried” by a Pharisee and attended to by his mother and the women in his entourage – all Jewish.
In keeping with the context and the prophet’s intent, the one who would be given is the Son of God, making this his 585gift. And this being the case, then we should translate qeber consistent with how it is presented in Mizmowr 88. Dowd’s Psalm was written to specifically address the soul’s journey into She’owl to fulfill Matsah. And there, qeber | grave is used synonymously with She’owl | Hell – the darkness of the pit of death for those separated from God and forgotten. This would not only be the most revealing way to present nathan in conjunction with geber, in this context, but it also cannot be rendered as “tomb” or “sepulcher” because there would be no point to the prophecy.
“So then, he offered as a gift (nathan – he actually gave, actively allowed, and genuinely placed with unfolding implications resulting from the gift over time (qal imperfect active third-person masculine singular)) his internment in the depression of She’owl (geber huw’ – his grave cast off in the absolute darkness of the lowest depths of the pit, hidden from God and terrorized, among the souls of the deceased who are separated, restrained, and afflicted there because they were corrupted and polluted by the abomination of religion [translated based upon the two appearances of geber in Mizmowr 88 which details this very moment]) to be with the guilty and convicted who were evil (‘eth rasha’ – with those who were condemned for having been wrong, wicked, and in violation of the standard, with bad people and unGodly souls).
Even though he will have engaged in nothing horrifying or savage, he will act (‘al chamas ‘asah – although he will not have done anything to terrorize or plunder anyone, he will be) in opposition to those who have accumulated a great many things and who have grown exorbitantly rich through exploitation and taxation (wa ‘eth ‘ashar – so among the people who have amassed wealth by taking a tenth of the productivity; from ‘ashar – to gain riches and ‘ashaq – through exploitation, oppression, and crushing violence [derived from treachery and deceit in Yirma’yah 5:27, presented as unredeemable 586in Mizmowr 49:6, and potentially condemnable in Mashal 28:20] [from 1QIsaa which refers to rich people versus a wealthy individual in the MT]) on his elevated place (bamah huw’ – on his mountain, hill, mount, and ridgeline [a.k.a., Mount Mowryah | Moriah]).
No deceit or dishonesty, nothing misleading, beguiling, or betraying (wa lo’ mirmah – nothing fraudulent, feigned, or false) will be in his mouth (ba peh huw’ – will be spoken by him).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Delivers / Isaiah 53:9)
When Yasha’yah received this prophecy from Yahowah, he would have been keenly aware of what Dowd had written in Mizmowr 22 and 88, collectively explaining what would occur on these two days. And it is obvious that Yasha’yah is expecting those of us seeking to understand the prophet’s narrative to have done the same. With this approach, we not only come to appreciate what is being described, we can visualize the journey Dowd’s nepesh | soul took into She’owl because the 88th Mizmowr provides a vivid portrayal of Matsah’s fulfillment.
Following along with them, the Basar | Herald lets out a sigh of relief, feeling vindicated for having presented the fulfillment of Pesach and Matsah leading to Bikuwrym in such a detailed and exacting manner. Set against Yahowah’s last statement, this loquacious approach should make it possible for more Yahuwdym to return to Yahowah. They can study this translation and analysis and appreciate when the text is addressing Dowd’s basar | corporeal body representing the Lamb and when his nepesh | soul is at work perfecting us.
This is Dowd’s gift to his people. After resolving our mortality, the Messiah took our guilt with him into She’owl | Hell and left it there, never to be seen again. The man who was proclaimed tsadaq | right with God and, thus 587vindicated, would endure Matsah with the most savage among us to uncover the best in us.
And in contrast to those who would exploit God’s people, becoming rich in the process of misleading them, Dowd would remain honest, open, eloquent, and forthright, talking the talk and then walking the walk. He was prophet and participant, both Shepherd and Lamb.
Being reliable in this way was especially important at this time because, according to Yahowah, Chag Matsah is the most important of the Miqra’ey. It is why Dowd, alone, was qualified to fulfill God’s promises. The initial three Mow’edym provide the means for Father and Son to perfect the Covenant Family, where, by working together they remove the stain, stench, and stigma of religion from our souls. There is no alternative, and without this gift, eternal life is served in She’owl. This makes Pesach counterproductive without Matsah.
To fully appreciate the relationship between the initial Miqra’ey, recognize that the consequence of religious and political rebellion, which is death, is resolved during Passover by the Zarowa’s redemptive sacrifice. And then, the penalty for leading others astray and away from Father and Son through religion, politics, and conspiracy, which is eternal incarceration in She’owl, is remedied by way of UnYeasted Bread. The Messiah endured that sentence in our stead, perfecting our souls by depositing our guilt in She’owl.
This explains why nathan | He placed Dowd’s nepesh | soul in geber | the lightless depression of She’owl where those who advanced the corrupting influence of religion are detained forevermore. The Messiah’s consciousness was incarcerated among the convicted and condemned even though he was carrying our guilt.
Christian translations render geber as buried, even though buried is a verb, so that they can present ‘ashar as 588“a rich man” to infer that “Jesus” fulfilled the prophecy of being buried in a rich man’s tomb. The problem with that theory is that, even if true, not only would there be no way to validate the prophecy, but it is irrelevant where Dowd’s body was placed because it was incinerated that night consistent with the Towrah’s instructions regarding the remains of the Passover lamb. Moreover, ‘eth ‘ashar is not a positive thing. It was used to condemn the Roman Empire, not one wealthy dude with an empty tomb on his hands who was looking for a short-term rental. ‘Ashar depicts the people who had “accumulated a great many things and had grown exorbitantly rich through exploitation and taxation.” It is derived from ‘ashar – to gain riches and ‘ashaq – through exploitation, oppression, and crushing violence. Further, 1QIsaa affirms that it is addressing rich people versus a wealthy individual, thereby spoiling the Christian plot.
Continuing to miss the point, Christian “Babels” render bamah as “death” to create the impression of another fulfillment, claiming that he was crucified between thieves. But bamah means “elevated place, a mountain, or ridgeline” and was, therefore, addressing the location which was on Mowryah.
As for lo’ mirmah | nothing misleading or beguiling being spoken by him – that cannot be said of the Church which misrepresented his purpose to justify their existence. Both sides of this coin are relevant to the Passover Lamb. Not only was he to be perfect, but his sacrifice also resolved the betrayal of religion.
Now to be fair, religious Jews are no closer to the truth. They deny what Yahowah and Dowd have done for them, too. Shame on the rabbis. She’owl | Hell awaits, even though they do not believe in it.
What would transpire, and now has been fulfilled, is the result of Yahowah honoring His promise through His Son. 589Here, we find Yasha’yah speaking for Yahowah to state that it was God’s preference and will to resolve His people’s guilt in this way. And in the Mizmowr, Dowd states that the decision was mutual, with Father and Son being of like mind and in total accord. And yet, no one seems to care about what either wanted or achieved.
There is no denying the realization that Yahowah supported His Son’s choice to serve as the Zarowa’ | Sacrificial Lamb. They realized that through the momentary affliction of one, the guilt of many would be resolved forevermore.
“And yet (wa), it was the will and preference (wa chaphets – it is the inclination and desire in this matter (qal perfect)) of Yahowah (YaHoWaH – an accurate presentation of the name of ‘elowah – God as guided by His towrah – instructions regarding His hayah – existence) for him to be wounded and endure this pressure (daka’ huw’ – for him to be subjected to undergoing the intensely oppressive nature of extreme gravity).
He will suffer injury, be afflicted, and grieve (chalah – he will be sickened and suffer the debilitating disease of the plague as he is weakened throughout the travail), when, as a concession, the Mother (‘im / ‘em – surely in the larger context of an oath performed by the ‘em – Mother [‘im – if and when and ‘em – mother are written identically in Hebrew]), She will render (suwm – She will direct and appoint, determine and place (qal imperfect third-person feminine)) his soul (nepesh huw’ – his consciousness, his capacity to observe by seeing, hearing, and feeling and then responding) to be a reconciling offer to pay the penalty for the culpability and resulting guilt (‘asham – as a sacrifice to resolve the consequence and damage of poor decisions, as well as the resulting impairment suffered from being offensive).
590Then he will witness (wa ra’ah – he will see, inspect, view, and observe (qal imperfect) [from 1QIsa]) the result of what is sown, the offspring (zera’ – the seed, fruit, children, and posterity) whose days he will prolong (‘arak yowmym – whose time he will lengthen and maintain (hifil imperfect)).
Therefore, it is the will and intent (wa chephets – so it is the pleasure and delight, the motivation and desire, the willingness and preference (qal perfect) [from 1QIsa]) of Yahowah ( – a transliteration of YaHoWaH as instructed in His towrah – teaching regarding His hayah – existence) to successfully accomplish this task, advancing the ability to prosper and thrive (tsalach – push forward making progress with overpowering force, sweep in suddenly and victoriously winning the case, being profitable and prosperous) ba Yad huw’ | with His Hand and influence (ba yad huw’ – by His direction and support).” (Yasha’yah / Salvation is from Yah / Isaiah 53:10)
Once again, I told you so.
Yahowah supported His Son’s decision to serve as our Savior. God realized that Dowd’s choice was right. The boy who, a thousand years earlier, had risen to the occasion and toppled the giant menacing his people would earn their trust and respect yet again. His basar would die and his nepesh would go to Hell to deliver Israel from a far more troublesome enemy – themselves!
The Dabar | Word made basar | flesh ‘abad | served as the chayym | living embodiment of the Beryth | Covenant by halak | walking a gibowr | courageous and racham | compassionate derek | path through the Miqra’ey | Invitations to be Called Out, expecting his ‘am | people to follow the Towrah’s | Guidance, becoming Yisra’el | Individuals who Engage and Endure with God and 591Yahuwdym | Beloved of Yahowah. He did. They did not – at least not yet.
No greater love has any man shown for his family. His was the most thoughtful decision ever made – one confidently calculated by the brightest in the history of our planet. And for our benefit, he was also the most articulate and inspiring. As a prophet, he left a trail of words we could follow Home.
His people would muck it all up, foregoing the benefits of eternal life as God’s children, by denying what Dowd and Yasha’yah had written. What I’m sharing with you now has been available for 27 centuries. It was sufficiently clear, and that was ample time for one among many to figure it out and share it with others.
Leaving his people yet another gift, and proving the prophetic nature of this revelation, the Great Isaiah Scroll was written and preserved 200 years before Dowd honored his commitment in Yaruwshalaim – his city. We have had absolute proof that Yasha’yah’s witness could be trusted since 1947. Three shepherd boys chasing after a lost goat tossed a rock into a dark recess. When they responded to the sound of shattered pottery, they discovered this scroll emblazoned with the words that would prove more valuable to Jews than the formation of the nation the following year.
There would be three Zarowa’, prolific writers and shepherds striving to save lost sheep, responding to these events by sharing the story of the boy who flung a stone at a foulmouthed Philistine and changed the world forever. This is Dowd’s story, and it is rationally undeniable. No faith is required to capitalize upon what he achieved.
With Pesach, Matsah, and Bikuwrym working in unison to provide the benefits of the Beryth, this connection was affirmed when the living embodiment of 592the Covenant, Yahowah’s Chosen One, our Messiah and King, volunteered to fulfill the first three Miqra’ey over three successive days. With his Father’s support, Dowd, as the Zarowa’, offered his basar | corporeal body as the Pesach ‘Ayil on the 14th of ‘Abyb in year 4000 Yah / Friday, April 3rd, 33 CE. His nepesh | soul fulfilled Matsah in She’owl the following day, Saturday, April 4th of the Yowbel year.
By reflecting upon Dowd’s own testimony, we know that after his body was wounded on Passover, his soul endured the extreme gravity of She’owl, experiencing the enormous pressure and responsibility of carrying the guilt of every Child of the Covenant with him into the equivalent of a Black Hole. He would deposit it there, never to be seen again. By removing the evidence against us, we have been perfected and are prepared to enter Heaven.
As a tangible expression of his Father’s support, the Ruwach Qodesh | Set-Apart Spirit, our Spiritual Mother, took Dowd’s soul from Mowryah to She’owl on the 15th of ‘Abyb, year 4000 Yah to accomplish the mission. Ladened with our guilt, and particularly the plague of religion, his nepesh would suffer grievously in Hell during UnYeasted Bread on behalf of our reconciliation. He paid our penalty, rendering us innocent and, thus, perfect in the sight of God.
On the third day, the 16th of ‘Abyb, Bikuwrym | Firstborn Children on the Towrah’s calendar, the Bakowr | Firstborn of his Father was released from She’owl by the Spirit and returned to Shamaym where he witnessed the result of what he had achieved. The lives of his people had been prolonged. All that was needed now was for the third Zarowa’ to explain to Yahuwdym that the second Zarowa’ had done as the first Zarowa’ foretold.
It was the will and intent of Yahowah to assure that the beneficiaries of what His Son had sown would prosper and thrive, achieving victory over guilt and death. As a result 593of the Zarowa’ being deployed by God, the mission is being accomplished such that the benefits of the Beryth | Covenant are now successfully delivered.
Should anyone question how I came to these conclusions, interpreting Yasha’yah / Isaiah 53:10 this way, I would encourage them to reconsider the 89th Mizmowr / Psalm where each of these connections was made. And then crack the covers of Coming Home and listen to Dowd as he makes all of this so very clear for us.
To more fully appreciate what occurred on the Miqra’ of Matsah, it’s important to recognize that on Pesach, Dowd’s body was whipped, pierced, and hung, but it was not subjected to the undue pressure of intense gravity. Therefore, it was Dowd’s soul that suffered this indignity in She’owl on the Shabat of UnYeasted Bread. Moreover, this is what the Messiah chose and God wanted. Our Father supported His Son’s decision to endure the worst of the Beast of Rome and the extreme pressure of She’owl to spare his people. There is no greater act of devotion or display of confidence, courage, and character. It is my great honor to Herald Dowd’s glorious attributes, accolades, and achievements.
Chalah was selected to paint this picture accurately. Dowd’s soul was subjected to the intense gravitational forces we associate with a black hole – the lightless place of eternal separation. It will serve as a prison for demonic beings and the wayward individuals who have allied with them in order to hold them accountable and keep them away from the rest of us.
This pronouncement also affirms that, for a moment in time, Dowd’s nepesh was enveloped in the stigma, stain, and stench of religious malfeasance and political intrigue to remove these imposters from Yisra’el. In this way, it is analogous to Moseh going into Mitsraym to remove the Children of Yisra’el from similar conditions long ago – 594setting this example. And on both occasions, these two Zarowa’ did so willingly to serve their people.
The Ruwach Qodesh | Set-Apart Spirit, who is the Mala’kah | Maternal Counselor, our Spiritual ‘Em | Mother, was tasked with the responsibility of “suwm – rendering” Dowd’s nepesh | soul unto She’owl. She did as directed because Father and Son had agreed to provide an “‘asham – reconciling offer to atone for the culpability and resulting guilt” the Covenant’s children derived as a result of prior religious and political entanglements.
Throughout this presentation of the fulfillment of the initial three Miqra’ey in the Yowbel year of 4000 Yah, I have consistently written Pesach and Matsah leading to Bikuwrym because that is how they work. When we enter the doorway to life during Passover and cross the threshold of our perfection during UnYeasted Bread, we are ready to be adopted by our Heavenly Father and Spiritual Mother on Firstborn Children. And this is the very transition being recognized by the concluding statements of Yasha’yah 53:10. The Ruwach Qodesh | Set-Apart Spirit releases Dowd’s nepesh | consciousness from She’owl during Bikuwrym | Firstborn Children, allowing the Son to return to Shamaym | Heaven.
While it would take time, ultimately from this perspective, the Zarowa’ would witness the result of what he has accomplished. He has sown the seeds that I am now cultivating to produce a thriving and growing harvest on Shabuw’ah and Taruw’ah so that the Family whose days will be prolonged forevermore can celebrate the Kipurym Homecoming.
This has been God’s intent from the beginning, a mission He predicted 777 years prior to His Son’s fulfillment at a place 777 strides above the sea. Those who answer His Invitations to be Called Out and Meet during Passover and UnYeasted Bread, with an appreciation of 595what Father and Son have accomplished, will be adopted into the Covenant Family on Bikuwrym. And we will celebrate together on Shabuw’ah | the Promise of Seven, Heralding the message on Taruw’ah | Trumpets in advance of the Son’s return on Kipurym | Reconciliations. As a result, we will camp out together in ‘Eden as we celebrate an eternal Sukah.
We know how all of this will play out because Yahowah spoke of this day. We read in the Prophet Zakaryah | Remember Yahowah …
“Yahowah (YaHoWaH) will rescue and deliver, save and protect (yasha’), Yahuwdah’s (Yahuwdah) homes and households (‘ohel) first and foremost in the initial phase (ba ha ri’shown) so that (la ma’an) the honor and glory (tiph’areth) of the House and Family (beyth) of Dowd (Dowd) and the splendor (wa tiph’areth) of the inhabitants of (yashab) Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim) are not surpassed by (lo’ gadal) Yahuwdah (Yahuwdah). (Zakaryah 12:7)
On that day (ba ha yowm ha huw’), Yahowah () will defend (ganan) the inhabitants of (yashab) Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim) and have their backs (ba’ad). So, it will exist (wa hayah) that the wavering and weak-kneed (kashal) among them (ba hem) on that day (ba ha yowm ha huw’) will be likened unto (ka) Dowyd (Dowyd), and the House of Dowyd (wa beyth Dowyd) will be like God (ka ‘elohym), similar to a spiritual implement and heavenly messenger (ka mal’ak) of Yahowah (Yahowah) in their appearance (la paneh hem). (Zakaryah 12:8)
And it will come about (wa hayah) at that time (ba ha yowm ha huw’) that I will seek to hold responsible and thus accountable, thereby choosing (baqash) to decimate and exterminate (la shamad), all of (kol) the Gentiles (ha gowym) who will have come against (ha 596bow’ ‘al) Yaruwshalaim | the Source of Guidance on Reconciliation (Yaruwshalaim). (Zakaryah 12:9)
And I will pour out (wa shaphak) upon (‘al – over) the House and Family (beyth) of Dowyd (Dowyd), and on the inhabitants of (‘al yashab) Yaruwshalaim (Yaruwshalaim), the Spirit (ruwach) of genuine mercy, compassion, loyal love, and favorable acceptance (chen), providing clemency and forgiveness (tachanuwn).
Then, they will look (wa nabat) to Me (‘el ‘any) accompanied by the one who (‘asher) they had reviled and pierced (daqar), and they will lament, being exceedingly emotional (wa saphad) over him (‘al huw’) as one shrieks (ka misphed) when reunited with someone special, making the family whole (‘al ha yachyd), anguished (wa marar) over him (‘al huw’) as one despairs (ka marar) over the firstborn (‘al ha bakor).” (Zakaryah / Zechariah 12:10)
Our Father offered His Son on Pesach, honoring the promise He had made to ‘Abraham and Yitschaq in this same place 40 Yowbel previously. Then our Spiritual Mother rendered his soul unto She’owl on Matsah as an act of compassion so that the Covenant Family would become acceptable. On Bikuwrym, God’s Firstborn Son took his rightful place at His Father’s side.
But that is not the end of the story, just the beginning. Shabuw’ah follows, with Dowd having prepared us for the Harvest. There will also be a Gleaning on Taruw’ah, another promise fulfilled. And that is why the Messiah’s Basar | Herald is announcing the Firstborn’s return on Yowm Kipurym | the Day of Reconciliations – the last chance for Yisra’el to get right with God. Five days after the Zarowa’s triumphant homecoming on October 2nd as the sun sets in Jerusalem in year 6000 Yah / 2033 Dowd will reprise his roles of Priest, Shepherd, and King.
597Returning to Yasha’yah’s prophetic portrait of our redemption, now that Dowd’s soul has been rendered as a guilt offering on our behalf on the Miqra’ of Matsah, it’s time to celebrate Bikuwrym with its spiritual reunification and relational reconciliation with the Father. In so doing, we find ourselves in the company of the foremost Zarowa’, Yahowah’s Son, the returning Messiah, Dowd.
“Out of (min – as a result of and from) the miserable circumstances and vexing challenges endured (‘amal – the hostile situation, the exceedingly unpleasant, grievous, and distressing ordeal experienced) by his soul (nepesh huw’ – his consciousness, making him completely aware of his circumstances such that He is responsive to what he is enduring), it will witness (ra’ah – it will observe and see (qal imperfect)) the light (‘owr – the brilliant illumination and enlightenment [from 1QIsa – not in MT]), thereby (wa – as such [from 1QIsa and 4QIsa]) abundantly satisfying and completely fulfilling what was required (saba’ – content to have overwhelmingly exceeded what was necessary (qal imperfect)).
And through this knowledge and understanding of him (wa da’ath huw’ – as a result of being perceptive and discerning regarding him, recognizing and acknowledging the information which leads to comprehension of the relationship with him; from yada’ – to know in a relational sense, to be familiar with and acknowledge (qal active infinitive construct – actively, literally, and continually learning about Him throughout time [written as presented in 1QIsa])) and what he has done to justifiably vindicate and validate what is right (tsadaq – to acquit and validate and verify what is correct), My coworker (‘ebed ‘any – My servant who works with Me [from 1QIsa]), the One who is Right, even vindicating (tsadyq – the means to acquittal by being correct), will bear (huw’ sabal – will sustain and incur then drag off and carry away (qal imperfect)) for many (la ha rab – for a great number) the 598guilt they derived from their distortions and perversions (wa ‘awon hem – their tendency to be wrong and the liability they incurred from their twisting and bending the truth).” (Yasha’yah / Salvation is from Yah / Isaiah 53:11)
Yes, this is why I told you so.
In this way, Chag Matsah was fulfilled – and now you know why, where, when, and by whom. Therefore, Yahowah wants us to be aware of what His Son has done to save us so that we are properly positioned to capitalize upon the blessings offered through Passover, UnYeasted Bread, and Firstborn Children. You will then be ready for the Shabuw’ah Harvest – the raised thoroughfare from man’s world to God’s home.
Yahowah’s Son deserves our respect for saving us. And yet, his sacrifices are for naught so long as his people remain unaware of what he has provided. This is the reason I translate these prophecies, contemplate their meaning, and then share their intent with Yisra’el.
Matsah leads to Bikuwrym just as the Spirit leads the soul back Home – from the darkness to the light. Reunited with Yahowah, Dowd’s nepesh has completed what was intended, having fulfilled what was required to redeem the Covenant’s Children.
Typically, when we see tsadyq | right, righteous, and upright describing an individual, it is addressing Dowd. And so, it is once again, directing our attention to the Zarowa’s nepesh – which is seen animating the Passover Lamb and fulfilling UnYeasted Bread. By being tsadaq | right, Dowd became the perfect choice to vindicate us.
With the transition from the darkness to the light, the ‘ebed | associate and coworker God wants us to da’ath | appreciate, the One who has done what was required to tsadaq | acquit his people from their ‘awon | religious 599distortions and political corruptions, is Dowd’s nepesh. This means that the Zarowa’ is our Savior.
Leading the flock astray, the Jewish Publication Society’s Tanakh perpetuated the Masoretes’ deception with a translation that is completely disconnected from the actual text: “Out of his anguish he shall see it,” removing “soul” and “light.” Hebrew scholars know that nepesh is “soul,” not “his,” because “his” is huw’, but it is apparent that they don’t much like the notion of a soul because it suggests that all of their elaborate cleansing rituals and religious attire, their restrictive diets and physical accoutrements are for naught because it’s the nepesh not the basar which matters.
On the other side of the shekel, this was Yahowah’s HalahuYah moment. All of the planning and suffering had borne fruit. By fulfilling Pesach and Matsah with His beloved Son, the one He had called Tsadaq | Right was now Bikuwr | His Firstborn – just as He had promised. Yahowah had saved mankind with the man He most loved.
It is a result of Dowd’s brilliance, that by seeking to comprehend his life and lyrics, we come to appreciate what this remarkable man means to Yahowah. God would have done it all for His Chosen One, alone! Dowd was the be-all, do-all, and for-all of Yahowah’s Family, defining what it means to be Yahuwd | Beloved of Yah. He is the lone individual of whom Yahowah said, “He is My son (ben ‘any) and I am his Father (wa ‘any ‘ab huw’).” And yet, it was the one who was offered the most who gave the most.
God anointed him Mashyach | Messiah on three occasions – just as he would live three lives. Yahowah chose David to be Melek | King of Yisra’el and then to return as King of Kings. He is the Ra’ah | Shepherd’s Shepherd – the ultimate Zarowa’ | one who leads and protects the flock while sowing the seeds of truth. And then he became the Sacrificial Lamb.
600As the Yad | Hand of God, Dowd began defending His people when he was a child – slaying the foulmouthed and uncircumcised Philistine with a single stone. He matured into the Tsemach | Branch through whom we would all grow and become productive. He was Yahowah’s foremost ‘Ebed | Servant because he was the epitome of what it means to be Tsadyq | Right.
To convey this message, there are three Zarowa’, all important in their own way, but the man in the center of Yahowah’s world is Dowd | His Beloved. And that is why God announced 300 years in advance of this prophecy, 1,000 years prior to its fulfillment, that Dowd would be His Bikuwr | Firstborn. In this role, Dowd | David has rightfully earned a disproportionate share of the inheritance Yahowah is offering to the Children of His Covenant. And therefore, God is celebrating the moment His promise to His Son became a reality.
This declaration in Yahowah’s voice may also suggest that there will be another, someone in a different time, a student of Dowd, who will bring this exclamation point to His people so that they too will understand. If so, he is the same person introduced at the beginning of the prophecy – the Basar and Qowl – the third Zarowa’. His mission is being fulfilled.
This is the crescendo of the most important event in our lives. We become right with God and are vindicated based upon who and what we know and understand regarding the fulfillment of Chag Matsah. Coming to recognize, appreciate, and accept what Yahowah and Dowd did for us on Passover, UnYeasted Bread, and Firstborn Children leads to our acquittal and adoption. Dowd’s soul endured She’owl on Matsah to remove our ‘awon | every mistake, making us tsadaq | right and thus vindicated.
601Returning to first person, the Father draws a connection between His Son and the inheritance provided to the Children of the Covenant…
“Therefore (la ken – this is right, just, honest, true and verifiable that as a result, assuredly), I will allocate and disburse a share (chalaq – I will apportion and assign, allot and distribute, a portion of everything through separation (piel imperfect)) to him and through him (la huw’ – at his direction during his approach), for many and in great abundance (ba ha rab – with a significant number of enriched individuals) such that (wa ‘eth) they will be empowered (‘atsuwm – they will be strengthened and potent, able to accomplish their intended purpose).
He will share (chalaq – He will apportion, assign, and allocate, dividing and disbursing) the valued property and possessions (shalal – that which is gained and is of tremendous benefit, the plunder and spoils taken when the enemies of Yisra’el and Yahowah are vanquished) through the orderly succession of events as a benefit of the relationship (tachath ‘asher).
To resolve the plague of death (la ha maweth – as a consequence of the pandemic disease which infects entire populations and at the point of death), he poured out and exposed (‘arah – he left destitute and abandoned) his soul (nepesh huw’ – his consciousness, projecting his ability to perceive, experience, and respond).
And therefore, with (wa ‘eth) the rebellious and revolting (pasha’ – the defiant and offensive, the indignant and disloyal), it was numbered for a time (manah – it [Dowd’s soul] was destined, assigned, appointed, and counted at this instance (nifal perfect)). Thereby (wa), he lifted up and carried away (huw’ nasa’ – he forgave (qal perfect)) many who had gone astray (cheta’ rab – numerous who had been wrong and missed the way [plural in 1QIsa]).
602For their transgressions (wa la pesha’ hem – to resolve their offenses and missteps [for the misled in 1QIsa versus those who mislead in the MT]), he has interceded (paga’ – he has intervened to spare them (hifil imperfect – he enables their ongoing reconciliation)).” (Yasha’yah / Yahowah Saves / Isaiah 53:12)
To which Yasha’yah / Isaiah 54:1 adds: “Sing for joy (ranan – rejoice, expressing your appreciation),…”
He told you so!
If somehow someone missed what Yahowah had announced previously regarding the way He and His Son, the Zarowa’, would provide the benefits of the Covenant, God has summarized the process. We will inherit our share of the universe because Dowd resolved our guilt. He was counted among the religious in She’owl so that we might be disassociated from it and them and enter Shamaym. He interceded on our behalf, going down so that we could be lifted up.
There are those who believe that this statement says that the unnamed individual, who is obviously Dowd based on the description, timing, title, and context, will receive the largest share of “a spoil.” But the spoiled are gone. Moreover, while Dowd will inherit the Earth, he is going to share it with every brother and sister in the Covenant Family. We are in this together and forevermore. It is the Covenant’s purpose to enrich Yahowah’s children. It is among the benefits of the relationship.
Moreover, Dowd is the ultimate gift – the Son who was given to us. He is the Messiah and Savior his people have been seeking. The Beloved is the benevolent leader the world has long sought. His Mizmowr are replete with the right answers. And he is going to return, clean house, remove the trash, restore the land’s former grandeur, and welcome a remnant of Yisra’el back home.
603This will occur at the proper time, predetermined to coincide with the fulfillment of Yowm Kipurym | the Day of Reconciliations in year 6000 Yah (October 2nd, 2033). It is then that the days will be prolonged as we sail past year 7000 Yah and into infinity – just as the seven-plus-one formula of Sukah suggests. All the while, we will be camping out with our Heavenly Father.
For this return to ‘Eden to occur, the “chata’ rab – erroneous nature of the many missing the way” must be expunged from the Earth. And it is the great defender of His People that Yahowah had designated for the job – the greatest of the Zarowa’. Sing for joy.
Yahsha’yah’s soaring prophecy explains the nature of, and the reason for, what would occur on Passover and UnYeasted Bread, leading to Firstborn Children. The fate of everyone’s soul rests on these events and a person’s willingness to accept the solution Father and Son provided.
These revelations prove that Yahowah inspired His prophet because this eyewitness account explaining what would occur was written seven centuries before the events described were manifested in Roman-occupied Jerusalem. The specificity of the prophecies, and the exactitude of their fulfillment, reveal how we should interpret unfulfilled predictions. God is precise and He selects His words with great care so that they reveal profound truths.
When we view Yahowah’s Word as a whole cloth, we come to understand that there is just one story – that of God facilitating a relationship with mankind – doing the heavy lifting with His Son. The seven Invitations to be Called Out and Meet provide the way Home, a journey that Father and Son personally enabled at a tremendous cost. Observe Passover and UnYeasted Bread so that your soul is included in the harvest of Firstborn Children.
