Today, we use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s,

Today is March 6th, 2021

March -- Mars' month

Middle English March(e)
Anglo-French March(e)
Old English Martius
Latin Martius "of Mars"
Latin Marti(s) "Mars" + -us (adj. suffix)
Latin Martius mensis "month of Mars"

Martius has always had 31 days.

March was the original beginning of the year, and the time for the resumption of war.

Mars is the Roman god of war. He is identified with the Greek god Ares.

 

Yehovah God has His own calendar, which is deleted from the world 

 

We are now in the 12th month in the scriptures called Adar, day 21

Esth.3 [7] ….the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar = “glorious”   אֲדָר  

דָר means to dwell, live

I see by this word Adar, when broken down, can convey a message that the "invisible, glorious God" wants to dwell among us and in us.

 

In the Book of Esther, the Hebrew the word "Esther" means "star" but the root of the word "Esther" is "satarand means "hidden".

The words, God and Lord do not appear in the book of Esther, they are "hidden or silent".

 Today’s Topic:

A review of a study I did in the past many times,

which is still needed for today

 

There is more miscellaneous0 information on the bottom of this study for you to review also.

 

The Word of God

Torah, Prophets and Writings (psalms)

Let’s start:

Torah (law, teachings)

Ta Na Kk is a acronym for:

T = Torah - first 5 books of Moses

N = Navi' eem or prophets (pl. sounds like - Na vi eem )

K = Ke'tuvim or writings (psalms etc.)

 

At this point, there were neither gospels nor letters.

 

Some good advice:

Josh.1 [7]… be you strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded you: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper whithersoever you go.

[8This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may  observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.

Mal.4 [4Remember you the Law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.

 

Yeshua said:

Matt.5 [17] Think not that I, Yeshua am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.

[18] For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

 

Every word:

Deut.8 [3]...He humbled you, and suffered you to hunger, and fed you with manna, which you knew not, neither did your fathers know; that he might make you know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Yehovah doth man live.

Prov.30 [5] every word of God is pure: He is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

 

Quoted from Deut. 8:3 above

Matt.4 [4] But he answered and saidIt is written , Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.

Luke 4 [4] And Yeshua answered him, sayingIt is writtenthat man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

Deut.19 15] One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sins: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.

2Cor.13 [1] This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

Saul / Paul quoted Deut 19:15 above.

 

Messiah Yeshua - Immanuel /Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with 

Matt.1 [21] …she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Yeshua: for he shall save his people from their sins.
[22] Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
[23] Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with 

Isa.7 [14] Therefore Yehovah Himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

 

Here is a sampling of the verses from the Gospels and Letters that come from the TaNaKh

The law and the prophets:

Matt.7 [12] therefore all things whatsoever you would that men should do to you, do you even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

Matt.22 [36] Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
[37] Yeshua said unto him, You shall love Yehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
[38] This is the first and great commandment.
[39] And the second is like unto it, You shall love thy neighbor as thyself.

[40] On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

 

Luke 16 [16] The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presses into it.

John 1 [45] Philip finds Nathanael, and said unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Yeshua of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

Acts 13 [15] And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, You men and brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

 

There are many, many scripture quotes in the Gospels, Acts, the letters and Revelation. We believe all are authoritative and written by holy men of God.

They all record many moves of the Holy Spirit, many words of Yeshua, many miracles and future events not happened yet.

We believe all are scripture. You can see in my studies they are quoted everywhere on my website.

Here is where the problem comes in:

Most pseudo Christian churches do not understand the epistles because they do not know Torah; and if they do, they have separated themselves from the children of God (the people in the TaNaK).

The pseudo Churches quote epistle verses out of context of the TaNaK; This is the reason there are so many different churches, whether Catholic or Protestant, denominational or non-denominational. You cannot read the epistles without understanding of Torah.

One example would be: every time they read the word "law" they understand it to be Torah and throw it all away.

However, we understand that the word "law" can be defined according to the context of the chapter.

It can mean, the Commandments, sacrificial system, judgments, or ordinances, etc.

Many timer it is the Levitical system of atonement which was a shadow of the coming Messiah.

Most churches cannot determine what has been fulfilled in Torah

An example: judgment belongs to Messiah now, atonement is now the blood of Messiah, and we are now the temple of the Lord.

However they throw it all away including the Commandments and ordinances.

They have thrown out the Sabbath, the calendar of God, the appointed days and Feasts of the Lord, clean and unclean - just to mention a few things.

The four gospels are the accounts of the Yeshua (who is the Word of God made flesh), His sayings, birth, life, death and resurrection. Also they are full of end time prophecies and Messiah's soon second coming!

Acts is an account of the Jews in chapter 2 and Gentiles in chapter 10 receiving the Holy Spirit and the Jerusalem church with many of Paul’s adventures.

All the epistles, letters are about people living the TaNaKh, Paul, James, John, Peter, Jude etc...

As I said above, They all record many moves of the Holy Spirit, many words of Yeshua, many miracles and future events not happened yet and much more. Also things in the churches to do and not to do, how to handle different people and situations and more…

Revelation is an account of:

Rev.1 [19] Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;

Rev.1 [1] The Revelation of Yeshua Messiah, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John…

 

Below, is a sampling of some terms used in the Bible:

 

It is written

Matt.2 [5] And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,[6 ] And you Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, are not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of you shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.

Mic.5 [2] But you, Bethlehem Ephratah, you may be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.

 

Matt.4 [4] But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.

Deut.8 [3] And he humbled you, and suffered you to hunger, and fed you with manna, which you knew  not, neither did your fathers know; that he might make you know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Yehovah doth man live.

 

Even Satan quoted the Word

Matt.4 [6] Satan said unto him, If you be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning you: and in their hands they shall bear you up, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.

Pss.91 [11] For he shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.[12] They shall bear you up in their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone .

 

Matt.4 [7] Yeshua said unto him, It is written again, You shall not tempt the Lord your God.

Deut.6 [16] You shall not tempt Yehovah your God, as you tempted him in Massah.

 

Matt.4 [10] Then said Yeshua unto him, Get you hence, Satan: for it is written, You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.

Deut.26 [10] And now, behold, I have brought the first fruits of the land, which you, O Yehovah, have given me. And you shall set it before Yehovah your God, and worship before Yehovah your God:

Deut.10 [20] You shall fear Yehovah your God; him shall you serve, and to him shall you cleave, and swear by his name.

 

Matt.11 [10] For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, which shall prepare your way before you.

Mal.3 [1] Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom you seek, shall suddenly come to this temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom you delight in: behold, he shall come, said Yehovah of hosts.

 

Matt.21 [13] And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.

Isa.56 [7] Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.

 

Matt.26 [24] The Son of man  - goes as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.

 

Matt.26 [31] Then said Yeshua unto them, All you shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.

Zech.13 [7] Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, said Yehovah of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.

 

Mark 1[2] As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, which shall prepare your way before you.

Mal.3 [1] Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom you seek, shall suddenly come to this temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom you delight in: behold, he shall come, said Yehovah of hosts.

 

Mark 7 [6] He answered and said unto them, Well hath Isaiah prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

Isa.29[ 13] Wherefore Yehovah said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:

 

Mark.9[ 12] And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restores all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at naught.

(Psalm 22, Isaiah 53)

[13] But I say unto you, that Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

Mark 14 [21] The Son of man indeed goes, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good for that man if he had never been born.

[27] And Yeshua said unto them, all you shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.

Zech.13 [7] Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, said Yehovah of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.

 

Luke 2 [23] (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to Yehovah;)

Exod.13 [2] Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever opens the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast: it is mine.

 

Luke 3 [4] As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

Isa.40 [3] The voice of him that cries in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of Yehovah, make straight in the desert a highway for our God

 

Luke 24 [46] And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Messiah to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

Jonah – all about the resurrection of Yeshua

 

John 6 [31] Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.

Exod.16 [4] Then said Yehovah unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.

Neh.9 [ 5] And gave them bread from heaven for their hunger, and brought forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promised them that they should go in to possess the land which you had  sworn to give them.

 

John 6 [45] It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

Isa.54 [13] And all your children shall be taught of Yehovah; and great shall be the peace of your children.

 

John 12 [14] And Yeshua, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,[15] Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, your King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

Zech.9 [9] Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, your King cometh unto you: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

 

Acts 1 [20] For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his position - bishoprick let another take.

Pss.69 [25] Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.

 

Acts.7 [42] Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O you house of Israel, have you offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness?

Acts 15 [15] And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written ,[16] After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
[17] That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, said the Lord, who doeth all these things.

Acts 23 [5] Then said Paul, I wish not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written , You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.

Exod.22 [28] You shall not revile the gods (judges), nor curse the ruler of your people.

 

Rom.1 [17] For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written The just shall live by faith.

Hab.2 [4] Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.

 

Rom.2 [24] For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

Pss.74 [10] O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever?

[18] Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Yehovah, and that the foolish people have blasphemed your name.

Isa.52 [5] Now therefore, what have I here, said Yehovah, that my people is taken away for naught? They that rule over them make them to howl, said Yehovah; and my name continually every day is blasphemed.

 

Rom.3 [4] God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That you might be justified in your sayings, and might overcome when you are judged.

Pss.51 [4] against you, you only, have I sinned, and done this evil in your sight: that you might be justified when you speak, and be clear when you judge.

 

Rom.3 [10] As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

Pss.14 [3] They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Pss.53 [3] Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

 

Rom.4 [17] (As it is written, I have made you a father of many nations,)

Gen.17 [4] As for me, behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations.

 

Rom.8 [36] As it is written, For your sake we are killed all the daylong; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Pss.44 [22] Yea, for your sake are we killed all the daylong; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

 

Rom.9 [13] As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated

Mal.1 [2] I have loved you, said Yehovah. Yet you say, Wherein have you loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? said Yehovah: yet I loved Jacob, 3] And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.



Rom.9 [33] As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumbling stone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

Isa.8 [14] And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

 

Rom.10 [15] And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written , How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Isa.52 [7] How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that brings good tidings, that publishes peace; that brings good tidings of good, that publishes salvation; that said unto Zion, Your God reigns!

 

Rom.11 [8] (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.

Jer.5 [21] Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:

 

Rom.11 [26] And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

Pss.14 [7] Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when Yehovah bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

Pss.53 [6] Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.

 

Rom.12 [19] Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, said the Lord.

Deut.32 [35] To me belongs vengeance, and recompense; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.

[41] If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.

[43] Rejoice, O you nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.

 

Rom.14 [11] For it is written, As I live, said the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

Isa.45 [23] I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, that unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

 

Rom.15 [3] For even Messiah pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached you fell on me.

Pss.69 [9] For the zeal of your house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached you are fallen upon me.

 

Rom.15 [9] And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written , For this cause I will confess to you among the Gentiles, and sing unto your name.

Isa.61 [9] And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which Yehovah hath blessed.

Isa.66 [19] And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.

 

Rom.15 [21] But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.

Isa.65 [1] I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.

 

1Cor.1 [19] For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

Isa.29 [14] Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.

 

1Cor.1 [31] That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Jer.9 [23] Thus said Yehovah, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: [24] But let him that glories glory in this, that he understands and knows me , that I am Yehovah which exercise loving kindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, said Yehovah.

 

1Cor.2 [9] But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Isa.64 [4] For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside you, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

 

1Cor.3 [19] For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness.

Job.5 [13] He takes the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.

 

Cor.9 [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, You shall not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treads out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?

Deut.25 [ 4] You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out the corn.

1Tim.5 [18] For the scripture said, You shall not muzzle the ox that treads out the corn.

Deut.25 [4] You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out the corn.

1Tim.5:8 … The laborer is worthy of his reward.

Lev.19 [13] You shall not defraud your neighbor, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with you all night until the morning.

Deut.24 [14] You shall not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he be of your brethren, or of your strangers that are in your land within your gates:

[15] At his day you shall give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and sets  his heart upon it: lest he cry against you unto Yehovah, and it be sin unto you.

Jer.22 [13] Woe unto him that builds his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong; that useth his neighbor’s service without wages, and gives him not for his work;

Mal.3 [5] And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swears, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, said Yehovah of hosts.

 

Some Greek:

G1124 graphe - graf-ay' - a document, that is, holy Writ (or its contents or a statement in it): - scripture.

This is the word scriptures below in the Greek, graphe.

Paul used many scriptures in his letters.

Peter says: people pervert Paul's letters just like the other scriptures, "TaNaK".

2Pet.3 [16] As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

 

Torah - the TaNaK - Gen. to Malachi are the scriptures!

2Tim.3 [15] And that from a child you have known the holy scriptures, (TaNaK) which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in Messiah Yeshua.

[16] All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:[17] That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

 

1 Cor.10 [7] Neither be you idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written , The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

Exod.32 [6] And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

 

1 Cor.14 [21] In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, said the Lord.

1 Cor.15 [45] And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

 

2Cor.4 [13] We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written , I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;

Pss.116 [10] I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:

 

2 Cor.8 [15] As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack.

Exod.16[18] And when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating.

 

2 Cor.9 [9] (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remains forever.

Pss.112 [9] He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.

 

Gal.3 [10] For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continues not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Deut.27 [26] Cursed be he that confirms not all the words of this law to do them. And all the people shall say, Amen.

 

Gal.3 [13] Messiah hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:

Deut.21 [23] His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but you shall in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accused of God ;) that your land be not defiled, which Yehovah your God gives you for an inheritance.

 

Gal.4 [22] For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.

Sarah - Hagar

 

Gal.4 [27] For it is written, Rejoice, you barren that bears not; break forth and cry, you that travails not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband.

Isa.54 [1] Sing, O barren, you that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, you that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, said Yehovah.

 

Heb.10 [7] Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do your will, O God.

Pss.40 [7] Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,[8] I delight to do your will, O my God: yea, your law is within my heart.

 

1Pet.1 [16] Because it is written, Be you holy; for I am holy.

Lev.20 [7] Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be you holy: for I am Yehovah your God.

 

It was written

Luke 4 [17] And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was writ ten,[18] The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,[19] To preach the acceptable year of Yehovah.

 

Isa.61 [1] The Spirit of the Lord Yehovah is upon me; because Yehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;[2 ] To proclaim the acceptable year of Yehovah, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;[3] To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Yehovah, that he might be glorified.

 

John 2 [17] And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of your house hath eaten me up.

Pss.69 [9] For the zeal of your house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached you are fallen upon me.

 

It is said

Luke 4 [12] And Yeshua answering said unto him, It is said, You shall not tempt Yehovah your God.

Deut.6 [16] You shall not tempt Yehovah your God, as you tempted him in Massah.

 

Heb.3 [15] While it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. [8] Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
[9] When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
[10] Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, they do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
[11] So I swore in my wrath, they shall not enter into my rest.)

Pss.95 [7] For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if you will hear his voice, [8] Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
[9] When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
[10] Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
[11] Unto whom I swore in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

Heb.4 [7] Again, he limits a certain day, saying in David (Psalms), To day, after so long a time; as it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

 

It was said

Matt.5 [21] You have heard that it was said by them of old time, You shall not kill;

Exod.20 [13] You shall not kill.

Deut.5 [17] You shall not kill.

Matt.5 :21 whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

and

[27] You have heard that it was said by them of old time, you shall not commit adultery:

Exod.20 [14] You shall not commit adultery.

Deut.5 [18] Neither shall you commit adultery.

 

Rom.9 [12] It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

Gen.25 [23] And Yehovah said unto her, two nations are in your womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from your bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

 

Rom.9 [26] And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, You are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.

Hos.1 [9] Then said God, Call his name Lo-ammi: for you are not my people, and I will not be your God.

[10] Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, You are not my people , there it shall be said unto them, You are the sons of the living God.

Hos.2 [23] And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people , You are my people; and they shall say, You are my God.

 

Heb.11 [18] Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall your seed be called:

Gen.21 [12] And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in your sight because of the lad, and because of your bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto you, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall your seed be called.

 

In the scriptures

Matt.21 [42] Yeshua said unto them, Did you never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?

Pss.118 [22] The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. [23] This is Yehovah's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.

 

Matt.22 [29] Yeshua answered and said unto them, you do err, not knowing the scriptures, or the power of God. [30] For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
[31] But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that
which was spoken unto you by God, saying,
[32] I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

Exod.3 [6] Moreover he said, I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.

 

Matt.26 [54] But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

[56] But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.

Zech.13 [7] Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, said Yehovah of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.

Miscellaneous information from the net, a review:

A short history of the Gospels and letters

Many so-called Greek scholars from the past, just like today often use the phrase “according to the original Greek”.  This leads one to believe that they have access to the original autograph manuscripts.  They do not!

No one today has the original writings themselves.  Let me repeat that again: the original autographical manuscripts of the Gospels and letters no longer exist.  They were written on perishable material and it is unlikely that they lasted more than a few years, let alone 20 centuries!

As you know, some people say they have the original Greek and the original Bible.  First of all, there was no original Bible.  At no time did the original autographical manuscripts of the 27 books known as the Gospels and letters ever reside between the covers of one particular book.

The Gospels and letters were not written as a book per se, it was written by eight or nine different men, in a variety of locations and circumstances over a period of about 60 years.  The Gospels and letters were originally letters which were written to certain congregations or individuals.

These letters were written on papyrus in a particular kind of recalled called Koine Greek. Koine Greek was the language of the common man at that time.  It is important to remember that the Gospels and letters were originally written in Koine Greek, because later on we are going to encounter manuscripts written in classical Greek.

As the Gospels and letters were circulated from congregation to congregation, each congregation would make a copy of the letter before passing it on.  Possibly, each congregation had its own collection of letters.

This collection of letters would eventually be put together in a book form, after the Gutenberg press was created. 1440

 

The Scriptures = TaNaKh = Genesis to Malachi

The Gospels prove the Messiah is Yeshua, His life, death and resurrection

The epistles are letters written by holy people that kept the Scriptures equivalent to my website today or a holy email you might write.

Revelation was given to Yeshua to show unto His servant John things past, things present and things to come.

Yeshua or any holy person never quoted anything for the Apocrypha, example: Maccabees, 2 Maccabees L or any Pseudepigrapha text, book which are falsely-attributed works, texts.

 

A short list:

 

Milestones in the development of this text include:

1.  The Syrian peshito and the old Latin (first and second centuries),

2.  Papyrus readings of the the Receptus (150-400 A.D,

3.  The Uncial readings of the Receptus (500-1500),

4.  The Latin Bibles of the Waldensians (1100-1300),

5.  The Latin Bibles of the Albigenses (1380-1550),

6.  The Latin Bibles of the Lollards (1300-1500),

7.  Martin Luther's Bible (1530), and

8.  The Receptus of 1615, 1534, 1550, and 1565.

 

English Versions included:

1.  Tyndale's (1525),

2.  Coverdale's (1535),

3.  Matthew's (1537),

4.  The Great Bible (1539)

5.  The Geneva Bible (1560),

6.  The Bishops Bible (1568), and

7.  The Authorized Version (1611)

 

This collection of letters would eventually be put together in a book form, after the Gutenberg press was created. 1440

Just remember and look up:

Origen

The Emperor Constantine of Rome.  325 A.D.

Then Eusebius was a great admirer of Origen, he was an Arian that denied the deity of Messiah and did not believe in a literal interpretation of Scripture.  Unfortunately, 50 copies of the Bible he made up for Constantine were based on the corrupt works of Origin.

Catholics creating 350 A.D

The codices Vaticanus and Sinaticus were written around 350 A.D. they were written on vellum in classical Greek

The next step in the corrupt line was Jerome’s Latin Vulgate written about 400 A.D. it was based primarily on the work of Origen and Eusebius.  For the next thousand yearsthis was the standard Bible the Catholic Church.

The codex Vaticanus is still owned by the Catholic Church

The codex Sinaticus was rediscovered 1859 in a trash basket at the monastery of St. Catherine on Mount Sinai.  This codex was corrected by over 10 different scribes in different periods of time  - This is very significant to understand.

Next we have the Rheims-Douay Bible completed in 1610.  It is the current Bible Catholic Church and of course the teachings of Origen, Eusebius, and Jerome.

Some people will have you believe that there exists somewhere a single authorized Greek text from which all translations and versions of made.  This is not true.

What we did have was over 5500 Greek manuscripts.  Today, there might exist 5000 pieces of evidence, fragments.

Remember WESTCOTT AND HORT

Just remember and take note: in every Bible today, the Gospels and letters are the work of Wescott and Hort.

 

The English Standard Version is an updated version of the Revised Standard of the National Council of Churches. The NCC has never been a Christian organization but is a Socialist organization like the World Council of Churches.

The ESV, like the NIV and the Holman Christian Standard Bible have absolute agreement with the Roman Catholic New American Bible and the Jehovah’s Witness New World Translation.

The ESV is based on the Masoretic text of the Hebrew Bible as found in Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (Kittel, Rudolf, 1853-1929) (2nd ed., 1983), and on the Greek text in the 1993 editions of the Greek New Testament (4th corrected ed.), published by the United Bible Societies (UBS), and Novum Testamentum Graece (27th ed.), edited by Nestle and Aland. < From the ESV official Website

Here is just one example:

 

KJV - Phil.2 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God…

ESV - Phil. 2:6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped

 

Now - The Kittels:

Most people would be shocked to learn the theological positions of Kittel. He despised Jews, denied that salvation is through Jesus Christ, denied the atonement, rejected the inspiration of scripture, contradicted the words of Jesus, and then put all these views into writing, so as to be sure and leave a written record of his personal hostility to Jesus Christ, Christianity, the Reformation, the Bible and to Jews.

His Son 
Gerhard Kittel wrote the Theological Dictionary of the New Testament (10 Volume Set) (also so-called theologian, though both apostate) was tried for Nazi war crimesBoth worked for the German Bible Society, which is also known these days as UBS the United Bible Society. The Copyright on both the Hebrew and the Greek base texts for translation by UBS, is retained by the German Bible Society, which has a very colorful and unrepentant history of its own activities during World War II.

Some people think that because it is a Bible Society that this means that those working either for it, or within it, are somehow believing or accepting of the truth or authenticity of Christianity or the Scriptures. This is not true when you look into it.

A short biography from the net – Gerhard Kittle

The son of the famous Old Testament scholar Rudolf Kittel, he married Hanna Untermeier in 1914, but there were no children from the union.

In May 1933 he joined the National Socialist German Workers Party.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerhard_Kittel - cite_note-cont-5 He had had no previous involvement in politics but called the Nazi Party "a voelkisch renewal movement on a Christian, moral foundation".

In 1945, after Hitler's Third Reich capitulated to the Allies, Kittel was arrested by the French occupying forces, removed from office and interned at Balingen. In 1946 Kittel was released pending his trial. He was forbidden to enter Tübingen until 1948, however. From 1946 to 1948 he was a Seelsorger (soul carer) in Beuron. In 1948 he was allowed back into Tübingen, but died that year before the criminal proceedings against him could be resumed

Nazi German

For the Third Reich, he produced anti-Semitic propaganda posing as scholarship.

A Professor of Evangelical Theology and New Testament at the University of Tübingen, he published studies depicting the Jewish people as the historical enemy of Germany, Christianity, and European culture in general.

In a lecture of June 1933 Die Judenfrage (The Jewish Question), that soon appeared in print, he spoke for the stripping of citizenship from German Jews, their removal from medicine, law, teaching, and journalism, and to forbid marriage or sexual relations with non-Jews - thus anticipating by two years the Nazi government, which introduced its Nuremberg Racial Laws and took away Jewish rights of German citizenship, in 1935. A close friend of Walter FrankKittel joined Frank's  Reichsinstitut für Geschichte des neuen Deutschlands, a highly politicised organisation that claimed to be involved in scholarship, upon its foundation in 1935. Within this institute he was attached to the highly anti-Semitic Forschungsabteilung judenfrage.

William F. Albright wrote that, "In view of the terrible viciousness of his attacks on Judaism and the Jews, which continues at least until 1943, Gerhard Kittel must bear the guilt of having contributed more, perhaps, than any other Christian theologian to the mass murder of Jews by Nazis.

From Net

On June 1st, 1933, New Testament Professor and Christian theologian, Dr. Gerhard Kittel delivered a speech entitled Die Judenfrage, “The Jewish Question,” which was later published in a 78 page booklet.

In Die JudenfrageKittel advocated that German Jews be demoted to “guest status” in Germany, a position which was attacked by more right-leaning Nazi groups insisting upon forced exile or worse.

In reaching his conclusion, Kittel considered three other potential answers to the Jewish question commonly debated at the time: extermination (which he dismissed as impractical and, in later editions, “un-Christian”), a separate Jewish state in the Middle East (which he declined for various logistical reasons, such as hostilities from displaced Arabs), and assimilation (which he argued was actually part of the problem, since mixed marriages between Jews and Christians in Germany resulted in the spread of secular liberalism in Germany).

In May of 1945, Kittel was arrested by French authorities, imprisoned for 17 months, dismissed from his academic position and refused his pension. In his own defense, Kittel claimed to be a “good” Nazi, having joined the party only one month before delivering Die Judenfrage.

He insisted that he was attempting to work within Nazi institutions to steer the discourse on racial issues away from “vulgar racism” and provide a moral Christian stance for dealing with the Jews in Germany.

Kittel also enumerated fourteen acts of kindness towards individual Jews in his own defense, such as dedicating one of his books to Issar Israel Kahan, his deceased Hebrew teacher, and intervening with the Gestapo in Vienna so that Jewish Christians in the ghetto could receive devotions. The only moral (and possibly legal) mistake Kittel admitted was being duped by the Nazi Party and Hitler himself, which he referred to as the “most bitter deception” of his life.

Although Kittel’s relationship with historical Judaism and German Jews was complex, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that he willingly aided and abetted the Nazi movement.

His father was a specialist in the Old Testament, and Kittel himself knew biblical, rabbinic, and modern Hebrew, worked with Jewish scholars, and even supported the publication of critical editions of rabbinic texts. However, after his 1933 speech, Kittel lost many admirers and some of his scholarly peers viewed his ideological turn with skepticism and disappointment.

In light of Die Judenfrage, some of his earlier writings, while (incredibly) not seen as especially anti-Semitic at the time, come into sharp relief, such as Jesus und Die Juden, published in 1926 and describing modern assimilated Jews as “people who have lost their souls- and all that remains of them is the outward hulls of a human being foreign to us.”

 In 1943, Kittel worked with Eugene Fischer (a Nazi scholar involved in race science) on “hooked nosed” terra cotta figurines unearthed in Trier which he saw as evidence of Jewish racial traits.

He taught college courses on the Jewish question and recommended barring Jews from professional work and education (e.g., in the picture to the left, SA soldiers link hands preventing  Jews from entering the University in Vienna in 1938, where Kittel would soon serve as chair).

He continued to write publicly on Talmudic justifications for violence towards non-Jews even after 1943 when he admits to knowing about Jews being murdered in Russia (published, for instance, in Goebbel’s Anti-judische Aktion).

Kittel wrote more articles for Walter Frank’s National Institute for History of the New Germany (which was meant to highlight German scholarship and was constructed by order of Hitler himself) than any other contributor including Frank himself, and was one of the Institute’s fifteen original members.

Kittel praised the Institute for its “service” as a “weapon in the fight against Jewry.” The 1936 opening of a special section of the Institute (dedicated especially to the Jewish question) was attended by Rudolf Hess and heralded by the Volkische Beobachter (the Nazi party’s newspaper).

With such complexities in mind, scholars of religion face important questions as to how Kittel’s scholarship should be regarded and (perhaps most crucially) whether it ought to be used at all.

Although Kittel never supported extermination of the Jews, and never, as did other Nazi Christian groups like the Deutsche Christen, suggested that Jesus was anything but Jewish in blood and culture, or sought the removal of the Old Testament from the Christian Bible, his ideological work is imbricated with Nazi politics.

Kittel, for instance, commonly referred to assimilated German Jews as “refuse,” a poison and corruption which “eats at the marrow of a Volk.” It is therefore worth inquiring as to the relationship between his politics and his scholarly work.

Take, for example, Kittel’s Greek New Testament Dictionary/Lexicon (Theologisches Wörterbuch zum Neuen Testament, or NWNT) which includes contributions from a wide range of scholars in Greek, Hebrew, and Biblical Studies, and the academic importance of which transcends the war years.

The editor’s preface to the 1963/4 English translation (written by G. W. Bromiley) described it as “not only a reference work or a starting-point for further research, but also as a formative contribution to theology.”

Kittel’s role as editor and contributor of the first three volumes of the NWNT may not, at first glance, appear to be problematic, but it is worth noting that the first volume was published in 1933, the same year that Kittel proposed his solution to the “Jewish Question” in Die Judenfrage.

Kittel edited the first three volumes of the NWNT from 1933-1938, though volumes four through ten were published under different editorial direction.

 An English translation of the first volume was published in 1963/4 and reprinted in 1993. The English translator, Bromiley, in his 1963/4 preface states that the “ultimate worth” of Kittel’s NWNT ‘lies in its fundamental orientation and its objective findings.” The 10 volume English translation was finished in 1976.

In Kittel’s preface to the first volume, he credits the contributors for their expertise and hard work, such as Walter Grundmann and Georg Bertram.

Grundmann joined the Nazi Party in 1930 and from 1939-1943 headed the Institute for the Study and Eradication of Jewish Influence on German Church Life.

Bertram presided over this same Institute in 1943 and in 1944 described the war as the “world conflict with Jewry for which all the powers of the German soul have to be mobilized.”

Kittel’s volumes are still used in seminaries today without any mention of the contributors’ involvement in the Nazi order.

More from net

Gerhard Kittel joined the Nazi Party in the spring of 1933. He soon gave a public lecture on “The Jewish Question,” which went to three editions in its published version. Kittel then became a charter member in a Nazi think tank, Walter Frank’s “Institute for the History of the New Germany,” and he proved to be the most prolific author in its “Research Section on the Jewish Question.” From 1933 to 1945 Gerhard Kittel justified the Nazi persecution of Jews with speeches, articles, and books. In all of this work he tried to show how and why Jews represented a danger to Germany and to the Western world.

Kittel claimed that Jews in the Old Testament had been a healthy people, but that they had degenerated over time. With the diaspora, which developed between the fifth century BCE and the fifth century CE, Jews had become a dangerous minority wherever they lived. Consistent with Nazi ideology, Kittel described Jews as a “mongrel race” carelessly intermarrying with non-Jews. When they lost their “healthy tie” to their own nation and their own soil, they become morally decadent, he claimed. Kittel even accepted the anti-Semitic stereotype perpetuated by the famous forgery, The Protocol of the Elders of Zion, arguing that sinister Jews were plotting to take over the world. As early as his Tübingen speech in 1933, Kittel warned Christians not to be deterred by sympathy or pity. God did not ask them to be “sentimental” or “soft,” but to face up to the task as harshly as necessary. Even if “the whole world screams at us of barbarism,” Kittel wrote, Germans should hold firm, for it was not anyone else’s business how Germany regulated is “cultural affairs.”

As late as 1944, Kittel praised Hitler’s anti-Jewish policies, even though he knew at least by 1943 that large numbers of Jews were being murdered on the Eastern Front. In a lecture at the University of Vienna, Kittel bragged that Christians had long recognized the danger of Jews and kept them safely restrained by ghetto walls. With the Enlightenment, however, the democratic ideal of religious tolerance released Jews from all legal restraint. Now Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party had risen up as a bulwark alongside the Christian church to protect Western Christendom against the Jewish menace.
