Today’s Topic:
Ye are Gods
God’s Judges
[1] God אֱלֹהִים standeth in the congregation of the mighty; אֵל
He judgeth among the gods. אֱלֹהִים -
[2]
How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
[3] Defend
the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
[4] Deliver the poor and needy:
rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
[5] They know not, neither will
they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are
out of course.
[6] I have
said, Ye are gods;
and all of you are children of the most High.
אֲנִי-אָמַרְתִּי,
אֱלֹהִים
אַתֶּם;
וּבְנֵי
עֶלְיוֹן
כֻּלְּכֶם.
[7] But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.
[8] Arise, O God, אֱלֹהִים judge the earth: for Thou shalt inherit all nations.
Some Judges in Scripture
Some of these judges ruled simultaneously
Ruth 1
[1] Now it came to pass in the days when the judges הַשֹּׁפְטִים ruled, that there was a famine
in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehemjudah
went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons.
Judges 2
[18] And when Yehovah raised them up judges, then Yehovah
was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge:
for it repented Yehovah because of their groanings
by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them.
[19] And it came to pass, when the judge was dead,
that they returned, and corrupted themselves more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them; they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way.

----------
Fourteenth judge: Eli; 40 years
1 Sam. 4 [18] And it came to pass, when he (Eli) made mention of the ark of God, that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck brake, and he died: for he was an old man, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
-------------------------
Watch your children!
Eli, not so good, evil sons
[27] And there
came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith
Yehovah,
Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in
Pharaoh's house?
[28] And did I choose him out of
all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn
incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto
the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of
Israel?
[29] Wherefore kick ye
at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation;
and honourest
thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest
of all the offerings of Israel my people?
[30] Wherefore Yehovah
God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house,
and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever:
but now Yehovah
saith,
Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour,
and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
[31] Behold, the days come, that
I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's
house, that there shall not be an old man in thine
house.
[32] And thou shalt
see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel:
and there shall not be an old man in thine house for
ever.
[33] And the man of thine,
whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume thine
eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all
the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of
their age.
[34] And
this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall
come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas;
in one day they shall die both of them.
[35] And I will raise me up a faithful priest,
that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and
in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine
anointed for
ever.
[36] And it shall come to pass,
that every one that is left in thine house shall
come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall
say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a
piece of bread.
The prophet: Samuel – Good, evil sons
----------------------
Now, we are judges
Ye are gods, judges with God's Word to judge righteously
Yeshua said:
John 7
[24] Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
------
Satan used these
words:
Gen. 3
[5] For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
-------------
Yeshua used these verses:
John 10:
[30] I and my Father are one.
[31] Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
[32] Yeshua answered them, Many good
works have I shewed you from my Father; for
which of those works do ye stone me?
[33] The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee
not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
[34] Yeshua answered them, is it not written in your law (Exod.), I said, Ye are gods?
[35] If he called them
gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
[36] Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world,
Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the
Son of God?
[37] If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
[38] But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may
know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
Yeshua - the Word will judge us
John.1
[1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 5
[30] I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
John 12
[47] And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. [48] He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
------------
1 Cor. 6
[3] Know ye not that we shall judge angels? [4] If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.
Law = Torah, teaching
Exod. 21
[1] Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them
[6] Then his master shall bring him unto the הָאֱלֹהִים judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him forever.
Exod. 22
[8] If the thief
be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges,
הָאֱלֹהִים to
see whether he have put his hand unto his neighbor’s goods. [9] For all manner of trespass, whether it be for ox, for ass, for
sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, which another challengeth to be his,
the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; הָאֱלֹהִים and whom the judges
אֱלֹהִים shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his
neighbor.
Exod.23
[1] Thou shalt not raise a false
report: put not thine hand with the wicked to
be an unrighteous witness.
[2] Thou shalt not follow a multitude
to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause
to decline after many to wrest judgment:
[3] Neither shalt thou countenance a poor
man in his cause.
[6]
Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
Lev.18
[4]
Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine
ordinances, to walk therein: I am Yehovah your God.[5] Ye shall therefore
keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a
man do, he shall live in them: I am Yehovah.
Lev. 19
[15] Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honour the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
Love God’s Righteous Judgments like David
Pss. 119
[7] I will praise thee with
uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned Thy righteous judgments
[62] At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of
thy righteous
judgments.
[106] I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep Thy righteous judgments.
[160] Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of Thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.
[164] Seven times a day do I praise thee because of Thy righteous judgments.
------------
We don't judge with our own judgment, we use God's judgment, the Word to judge all matters
You are gods, judges with God's Word to judge righteously
Always remember:
Yeshua said:
John 7
[24] Judge not according
to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
2Cor.5
[10]
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of
Messiah; that every one may receive the things done in his body,
according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Heb.9
[27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment
-----------------
Ezek.36
[27] And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
Prov.28
[5] Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek Yehovah understand all things.
Prov.29
[4] The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.
[26] Many seek the ruler's favour; but every man's judgment cometh from Yehovah.
Prov. 31
[4]
It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to
drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:
[5] Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert
the judgment of any of the afflicted.
Ecc.3
[16]
Ecc.5

Ecc.8

Ecc.11

-----------------
Peter writes:
1Pet. 4
[17] For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? [18] And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
Matt.7
[1]
Judge not (in your own spirit), that ye be not
judged.
[2] For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall
be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
John 9
[39]
And Yeshua said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see
not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.[40] And some of the
Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
[41] Yeshua said unto them, If ye were blind, ye
should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore
your sin remaineth.
Matt.23
[23] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
John 5
[22] For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
[23] That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent Him.
[27] And The
Father hath given Him, Yeshua, the Son
authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
[30] I can of mine own
self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment
is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father
which hath sent me.
John 12
[31] Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
John 16
[7]
Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you
that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but
if I depart, I will send him unto you.
[8] And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of
righteousness, and of judgment:
[9] Of sin, because they believe not on me;
[10] Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
[11] Of judgment, because the prince of this world is
judged.
In closing:
1Cor.1
[10]
Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Yeshua Messiah, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the
same judgment.
