1 Moat - Pishon
FIRST UNITY
Repentance: I did Strive with G-d.
Hear, O Israel:
The Lord our G-d, The Lord Is One;
And thou shalt love the Lord thy G-d with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
Amen.
Forgiveness and Mercy: I am Christian toward men.
Our Father Which Art In Heaven, Hallowed Be Thy Name;
Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done, In Earth As In Heaven;
Please Give us this day our Daily Bread;
And Forgive us our Debts, as we Forgive our debtors;
And Lead us Not Into Temptation, But Deliver us From Evil:
For Thine Is the Kingdom,
And the Power,
And the Glory,
For Ever.
Amen.
Obedience: I will be submissive to G-d.
Praise be to G-d, Lord Of the Worlds;
The Compassionate;
The Merciful;
King On The Day Of Reckoning;
Thee only do we worship, and to Thee do we cry for Help;
Guide Thou us On The Straight Path,
The Path of those To Whom Thou Hast Been Gracious;
With whom Thou Art Not Angry,
And who go not astray In The Name Of G-d;
The Compassionate;
The Merciful.
Amen.
One Faith For One G-d.
What G-d and man Hath Joined Together,
let none Cast Asunder.
OMER OF MANNA
All Glorious Is The King's Daughter within The Palace;
Her Raiment Is Of Chequer Work Inwrought With Gold;
She Shall Be Led Unto The King On Richly Woven Stuff.
Hear, O Israel:
The Lord thy G-d,
The Lord Is One;
And I Have:
Looked And Heard,
Wrestled And Judged,
Hired And Brought Fortune,
Dwelled With And Made Happy,
Joined And Added To The Praise
Of The Son Of The Right Hand, Israel;
And I Will Betroth thee Unto Me Forever;
Yea, I Will Betroth thee Unto Me In Righteousness,
And In Justice, And In Lovingkindness, And In Compassion,
And I Will Betroth thee Unto Me In Faithfulness, And thou shalt know The Lord;
And thou shalt love The Lord thy G-d with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might;
For Then Will I Turn To The Peoples, A Pure Language, That they may all call Upon The Name
Of The Lord, to serve Him with one consent. And These Words, Which I Command thee
This Day, Shall Be Upon thy heart; and thou Shalt Teach Them diligently unto thy children;
and Shalt Talk Of Them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way,
and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up; And thou Shalt Bind Them For A Sign
upon thy hand; and They Shall Be For Frontlets between thine eyes;
And thou Shalt Write Them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates.
Praise be to G-d, Our Father,
Lord Of The Worlds which art in Heaven;
The Compassionate, The Merciful, Hallowed Be Thy Name;
King On The Day Of Reckoning;
Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done, In Earth As In Heaven;
Thee only do we worship, and To Thee do we cry For Help;
Please Give us this day our Daily Bread;
And Guide Thou us On The Straight Path,
The Path of those to whom Thou Hast Been Gracious;
And Forgive us our Debts, as we forgive our debtors;
with whom Thou Art Not Angry, and who go not astray;
And Lead us Not Into Temptation,
But Deliver us From Evil In The Name Of G-d;
For Thine Is The Kingdom;
The Compassion And The Power;
The Mercy And The Glory;
Forever.
Amen.
I did Strive with G-d;
I am Christian toward men;
I will be Submissive To G-d;
And I will betroth Thee unto me forever;
Yea, I will betroth Thee unto me in righteousness,
and in justice, and in lovingkindness, and in compassion,
and I will betroth Thee unto me in faithfulness; and I shall know The Lord.
THE WISDOM
A wise king once said, 'That which has been is that which shall be;
and that which hath been done is that which shall be done; and
there is nothing new under the sun. And I hated all my labour
wherein I laboured under the sun, seeing that I must leave it to the
man that shall be after me. And who knoweth whether he will be a
wise man or a fool? Yet will he have rule over all my labour
wherein I have laboured, and wherein I have shown myself wise
under the sun. This also is vanity. Therefore I turned about to
cause my heart to despair concerning all the labour wherein I had
laboured under the sun. For there is a man whose labour is with
wisdom, and with knowledge, and with skill; yet to a man that hath
not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is
vanity and a great evil. For what hath a man of all his labour, and
of the striving of his heart, wherein he hath laboured under the sun?
For all his days are pains, and his occupation vexation; yea, even
in the night, his heart taketh no rest. This also is vanity. So I hated
life; because the work that is wrought under the sun was grievous
unto me, for all is vanity and a striving after wind. Again I
considered all labour and all excelling in work, that it is a man's
rivalry with his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after
wind. Then I returned and saw vanity under the sun. There is One
that is Alone, and He hath not a second; yea, He hath neither son
nor brother; yet is there no end of all His labour, neither is His Eye
satisfied with riches: 'For whom then do I labour, and bereave My
Soul of pleasure? This also is vanity, yea, it is a grievous
business. Better is a poor and Wise Child than an old and foolish
king, who knoweth not how to receive admonition anymore. For
out of prison He Came Forth to be King; although in His Kingdom
He Was Born poor. I saw all the living that walk under the sun, that
they were With the Child, the Second, that was to Stand Up in His
Stead. There was no end of all the people, even of all them whom
He Did Lead; yet they that come after shall not Rejoice In Him.
Surely this also is vanity and a striving after wind. There is a
righteous man that perisheth in his righteousness. Be not righteous
overmuch, neither make thyself overwise, why shouldest thou
destroy thyself? For in much wisdom is much vexation; and he that
increaseth knowledge, increaseth sorrow. All this have I tried by
wisdom; I said, 'I will get WISDOM'; but it was far from me. That
which is far off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out? Then I
beheld All the Work of G-d, that man cannot find out the Work That
Is Done under the sun, because though a man labour to seek it out,
yet he shall not find it; yea further, though a wise man think to know it,
yet shall he not be able to find it. This also have I seen as WISDOM
under the sun, and it seemed great unto me: There was a little city,
and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and
besieged it, and built great bulworks against it; now there was
found in it a man poor and wise, and he by his wisdom delivered
the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man. Then said I:
'WISDOM is better than strength', nevertheless, the poor man's
wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard. Woe to thee 'O'
land, when thy King Is A Boy, and thy princes feast in the morning!
Happy art thou 'O' land, when thy King is a Free Man, and thy
princes eat in due season, in strength, and not in drunkenness.
There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, like an error
which proceedeth from a ruler: Folly is set on great heights, and
the wise sit in low place. I have seen servants upon horses, and
princes walking as servants upon the earth. And moreover, I saw
under the sun, in the place of justice, that wickedness was there;
and in the place of righteousness, that wickedness was there. I
said in my heart: 'The righteous, and the wicked, G-d Will Judge;
for there is a time there for every purpose, and for every work. The
words of the wise are as goads, and as nails; well fastened are
those that are composed in collections; they Are Given From One
Shepherd. And furthermore, my Son, be admonished: of Making
Many Books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the
flesh.'
The Word of this poor Child: Forasmuch as the king's word hath
power; and who may say unto him: 'What doest thou?'; Better the
end of a thing than the beginning thereof; and the patient in spirit is
better than the proud in spirit. Say not thou: 'How was it that the
former days were better than these?' For it is not out of wisdom that
thou inquirest concerning this. For since the first man born saw his
brother, he killed him and lied to his Creator. A wise man's
understanding is at his right hand, but a fool's understanding at his
left, and with the nail of war, they do crucify His Left Hand. Say not
thou, 'The Labour wherein I Had Laboured under the sun was
vanity.' For all work under the sun is vanity excepting the Labour of
the Lord's Work; that of Peace on earth, which Has Not Been Done
under the sun. The end of the matter, all having been heard; Fear
G-d and Keep His Commandments, for this is the Whole man. For
G-d Shall Bring every work into the Judgment concerning every
hidden thing, whether it be good or whether it be evil.
THE OLIVE BRANCH
It was a strong limb,
yet not so stiff as to hide an approach;
but good of view,
and generous of breeze,
and scent unlike the other trees;
today shared this branch with crow and dove;
and harmony rang out, from above.
2-9-97
IN THE NAME OF G-D, THE COMPASSIONATE, THE MERCIFUL:
PROVERBS 30.18 There are three things which are too wonderful
for me, yea, four which I know not:
PROVERBS 30.19 The way of an eagle in the air;
the way of a serpent upon a rock;
the way of a ship in the midst of the sea;
and the way of a man with a young woman.
I swear by those which scatter with a scattering:
the way of an eagle in the air;
and by those which carry a burden:
the way of a snake upon a rock;
and by those which run lightly:
the way of a ship in the midst of the sea;
and by those which divide or command a matter:
the way of a man with a young woman:
I am not the father of any man among you,
but I Am The Apostle Of G-d, And The Seal Of The Prophets:
And G-d Knoweth All Things.
True indeed, Is That with Which ye are Threatened,
And Lo! The Judgment Will Surely Come.
1 Whatever is in the Heavens and in the Earth is G-d's: and
whether ye bring forth to light what is in your minds or conceal it,
G-d Will Reckon With you for it; and whom He Pleaseth Will He
Forgive, and whom He Pleaseth Will He Punish; for G-d Is All-
Powerful.
2 But as to those who Fear their Lord--for them are the gardens
'neath which the rivers flow: therein shall they abide for
aye. Such their Reception With G-d-- And That which is With
G-d Is Best for the Righteous.
3 And when the Koran is read, then listen ye to it and keep silence,
that haply ye May Obtain Mercy.
4 And if G-d Lay The Touch Of Trouble On thee, none can deliver
thee from It but He: and if He Will thee Any Good, none can keep
back His Boons. He Will Confer Them On such of His Servants as
He Chooseth: and He Is The Gracious, The Merciful!
5 And all that we have related to thee of the histories of these
Apostles, is to confirm thy heart thereby. By these hath the truth
reached thee, and a monition and warning to those who believe.
6 Never before thee Have We Sent Any but men, Chosen out of
the people of the cities, to whom We Made Revelations. Will they
not journey through the land, and see what hath been the end of
those who were before them? But the Mansions of the next life
shall be better for those who Fear G-d. Will they not then
comprehend?
7 See they not that We Come Into their land and Cut Short its
borders? G-d Pronounceth A Doom, and there is none to reverse
His Doom. And Swift Is He To Take Account.
8 And thou shalt see the wicked on That Day, linked together in
chains-
9 Now Know We that thy heart is distressed at what they say:
10 But Love Will The G-d Of Mercy Vouchsafe to those who
believe and do the things that be right.
11 But they say, 'If he come not to us With A Sign From his Lord...!'
But have not clear proofs for the Koran come to them, in what is in
the books of old?
12 And that they say that which they do not?
13 Say: Specially am I commanded to worship the Lord of this
land, Which He Hath Sanctified. All things are His: and I am
commanded to be one of those who surrender them to G-d.
14 Thou dids't never expect that The Book Would Be Given thee.
Of Thy Lord's Mercy Only Hath It Been Sent Down. Be not thou
helpful then to the unbelievers:
15 Do they not see that We Have Established A Safe Precinct
while all around them men are being spoiled? Will they then
believe in vain idols, and not own The Goodness Of G-d?
16 And now have we set before men, in this Koran, every kind of
parable: Yet if thou bring them a single verse of it, the infidels will
surely say, 'Ye are only utterers of vain things.'
17 When the waves cover them like dark shadows they Call Upon
G-d as with Sincere Religion; but when He Safely Landeth
them, some of them there are who halt between two opinions.
Yet none reject Our Signs but all deceitful, ungrateful ones.
18 They say, 'When will This Decision take place? Tell us, if ye
are men of truth.'
19 What! Must not He Who Hath Created the Heavens and the
Earth Be Mighty Enough To Create your likes? Yes! And He Is
The Skillful Creator.
20 Say: I ask no wage of you for this, nor am I one who
intermeddleth.
21 And when their Apostles had come to them with the tokens of
their mission, they exulted in what they possessed of knowledge;
but That Retribution at which they scoffed, Encompassed them.
22 Say: What think ye? If This Book Be From G-d and ye believe it
not, who will have gone further astray than he who is at a distance
from it?
23 Or He Sendeth A Messenger To Reveal, By His Permission,
What He Will: for He Is Exalted, Wise!
24 If thou ask them Who Hath Created them, they will be sure to
say, 'G-d'. How then hold they false opinions?
25 'Tis The Gracious Bounty Of Thy Lord! This is The Great
Felicity.
26 This, because ye received The Signs Of G-d with mockery,
and this present life deceived you. On That Day therefore, they
shall not come out from it; and they shall not be asked to win The
Favour Of G-d.
27 And A Day Is Coming when the infidels Shall Be Set Before
The Fire. 'Is not this it in truth?' They shall say, 'Aye, by our Lord.'
He Said, 'Taste Then The Punishment For That ye would not
believe.'
28 On The Day when the Earth Shall Swiftly Cleave Asunder Over
the dead, Will This Gathering Be Easy To Us.
29 But his Lord Chose him And Made him Of The Just.
30The Apostle believeth in That Which Hath Been Sent Down
From His Lord, as do the faithful also. Each one believeth in G-d,
and His Angels, and His Books, and His Apostles. And they say,
'We have heard and we obey Thy Mercy Lord! For unto thee must
we return.'
31 Among the People Of The Book are those who Believe in G-d,
and In What He Hath Sent Down To you, and In What He Hath
Sent Down To them, humbling themselves Before G-d. They
barter not the Signs Of G-d for a mean price.
32 And think within thine own self on G-d, with lowliness, and with
fear, and without loud spoken words, at even and at morn; and be
not one of the heedless.
33 Say: O men! Now Hath The Truth Come Unto you From Your
Lord. He therefore who Will Be Guided, Will Be Guided Only For
his own behoof: But he who shall err, will err only against it; and I
am not your guardian!
34 But say to those who believe not, 'Act as ye may and can: We
will act our part: And wait ye; we verily will wait.'
35 When at last the Apostles lost all hope, and deemed that they
were reckoned as liars, Our Aid Reached them, and We
Delivered Whom We Would; but Our Vengeance Was Not
Averted From the wicked.
36 Those who lived before them made plots: But All plotting Is
Controlled By G-d: He Knoweth the works of everyone, and the
infidels Shall Know whose Will Be The Recompence Of The
Abode.
37 Their Garments Of Pitch, and Fire Shall Enwrap their faces- that
G-d May Reward every soul As It Deserveth; Verily G-d Is Prompt
To Reckon.
38 But do thou celebrate the praise of the Lord, and be of those
who bow down in worship.
39 Verily, We Have Made This Koran Easy, And In Thine Own
Tongue, that thou mayest announce glad tidings By It to the G-d
fearing, and that thou mayest warn the contentious By It.
40 And Had We Destroyed them By A Chastisement Before Its
Time, they would surely have said, 'O our Lord! How could we
believe, If Thou Dids't Not Send Unto us An Apostle that we might
follow Thy Signs ere that we Were Humbled and Disgraced.'
41 'Save those who believe, and do good works, and oft
remember G-d.'
42 'And to recite the Koran': and whoever Is Rightly Guided,
assuredly Will Be Rightly Guided To his own behoof.
43 Neither let them turn thee aside from The Signs Of G-d, after
They Have Been Sent Down To thee, but bid men To Thy Lord;
and be not among those who add 'g-ds' to G-d.
44 But who acteth more wrongly than he who deviseth a lie against
G-d, or calls The Truth When It Hath Come To him, a lie? Is there
not An Abode For the infidels In Hell?
45 It is thus that G-d Hath Sealed Up the hearts of those who are
devoid of knowledge.
46 O men! Fear ye your Lord, And Dread the Day whereon father
shall not Atone for son, neither shall a son in the least
Atone for his father. Aye! the Promise of G-d is a Truth.
Let not this present life then deceive you; neither let the
deceiver deceive you Concerning G-d.
47 Say: On The Day Of That Decision, the faith of the infidels shall
not avail them, and they shall have no further respite.
48 His Command When He Willeth Aught, is But To Say To it, Be,
and It Is.
49 Of a truth, the Koran is no other than a WARNING to all creatures.
50 And when they beheld Our Vengeance, they said, 'We believe
in G-d Alone, and we disbelieve in the deities we once associated
with Him.'
51 We Will Shew them Our Signs in different countries and among
themselves, Until It Become Plain to them that It Is The Truth. Is it
not enough for thee that Thy Lord Is Witness Of All Things?
52 Thus Have We Sent The Spirit to thee With A Revelation By
Our Command. Thou knewest not, ere this, what 'The Book' was,
or what 'The Faith', but We Have Ordained It For A Light: By It Will
We Guide Whom We Please Of Our Servants. And thou shalt
surely guide into the right way.
53 And one saith, 'O Lord! Verily these are people who believe
not.'
54 We Have Made This Koran Easy for thee, in thine own tongue,
that they may take The WARNING.
55 Praise then be to G-d, Lord Of The Heavens, And Lord Of The
Earth; The Lord of the Worlds!
56 Bear thou up then, with patience, as did the Apostles endued
with firmness, and seek not to accelerate their doom. For on The
Day when they shall see that With Which They Have Been
Menaced,
57 We Know Best what the infidels say: and thou art not to compel
them.
58 Almost would the infidels strike thee down with their very looks
when they hear The WARNING of the Koran. And they say, ' He is
certainly possessed.'
59 G-d Will Not Burden Any soul Beyond its power. It shall enjoy
the good which it hath acquired, and shall bear the evil for the
acquirement of which it laboured. O our Lord! Punish us Not if we
forget, or fall into sin; O our Lord! And Lay Not on us A Load like
that Which Thou Hast Laid on those who have been before us; O
our Lord! And Lay Not on us that for which we have not strength:
But Blot Out our sins And Forgive us, And Have Pity on us. Thou
art our Protector: Give us Victory therefore, Over the infidel nations.
60 O ye who believe! Be patient, and vie in patience, and be firm,
and fear G-d, that it may be well with you.
61 Verily, They Who Are Round About Thy Lord disdain not His
Service, they Praise Him And Prostrate themselves Before Him.
62 And Follow What Is Revealed to thee: And Persevere
Steadfastly Till G-d Shall Judge, for He Is The Best Of Judges.
63 To G-d Belong The Secret Things of the Heavens and of the
Earth: All Things Return To Him: Worship Him then, and Put thy
Trust In Him: Thy Lord Is Not Regardless Of your Doings.
64 Certainly in their histories is an example for men of
understanding. This is no new tale of fiction, but A Confirmation Of
Previous Scriptures and an explanation of all things, And
Guidance And Mercy to those who believe.
65 The infidels, moreover, will say, 'Thou art Not Sent Of G-d.' Say:
G-d Is Witness Enough betwixt me and you, and whoever hath
knowledge of The Book.
66 This is A Message for mankind, that they may thereby Be
Warned: and that they may know that there is but One G-d; and
that men of understanding May Ponder It.
67 And Serve Thy Lord 'till the certainty o'ertake thee.
68 How many generations Have We Destroyed before them?!
Cans't thou search out one of them? Or cans't thou hear a whisper
from them?
69 Say: Each one of us awaiteth The End. Wait ye then, and ye
shall know which of us have been followers of the even way, and
who Hath Been the Rightly Guided.
70 And who defend themselves when unjustly treated. But they
who treat them unjustly shall find out what A Lot Awaiteth them.
71 And as to him who erreth, Say: I truly am a Warner Only. And
Say: Praise Be To G-d! He Will Shew you His Signs, And Ye Shall
Acknowledge Them: and of what ye do, Thy Lord Is Not
Regardless.
72 And call not on any other 'g-d', With G-d. There Is No G-d But
He! Everything shall perish Except Himself. Judgment Is His,
And To Him Shall Ye Return.
73 And whoso Maketh Efforts For Us, In Our Ways Will We Guide
them: for G-d Is Assuredly With those who do righteous deeds.
74 But do thou Muhammad, bear with patience, for True Is The
Promise Of G-d; and let not those who have no firm belief, unsettle
thee.
75 But no soul knoweth what it shall have gotten on the morrow:
neither knoweth any soul, in what land it shall die. But G-d Is
Knowing, Informed Of All.
76 Stand aloof from them then, and wait thou, for they too wait.
77 So Glory Be To Him, In Whose Hand Is Sway Over All Things!
And To Him Shall Ye Be Brought Back.
78 And after a time, shall ye surely know Its Message.
79 But their faith, after they had witnessed Our Vengeance,
profited them not. Such, The Procedure Of G-d With Regard To
His Servants Who Flourished of old. And then the unbelievers
Perished.
80 Are they not in doubt as to The Meeting With Their Lord? But
Doth He Not Encompass All Things?
81 The Way Of G-d, Whose Is All that the Heaven and the Earth
contain. Shall Not All Things Return To G-d?
82 Turn thou then from them, and Say, 'Peace': In The End, they
shall know their folly.
83 Therefore wait thou, for they are waiting.
84 And His Be The Greatest In The Heavens And On The Earth;
For He Is The Mighty, The Wise!
85 It shall be as though they had waited but an hour of the day-
Enough! Shall any perish, save they who transgress?
86 Warn then, by the Koran, those who Fear My Menace.
87 Yet It is nothing less than a Warning for all creatures
THE JUDGMENT
1.1 G-d Existed Within the universe for time without measure. The
Knowledge Of G-d. The Understanding Of G-d. The Wisdom Of G-d.
The Planning Of G-d. G-d Filled the universe With matter, and Formed
It Into worlds, Adding Form To the universe. G-d Created heaven and
earth among these.
1.1 The universe was unformed. There was no consciousness,
Joined With, or apart from G-d. The Solitude Of G-d, that G-d
Should Be Alone.
1.2 The Image Of G-d, and the Light Thereof.
1.2 The Image Of G-d, Seen Only By G-d.
1.3 The Word Of G-d. G-d Causes some worlds To Become solar,
and some planetary. G-d Created the Nephilim of the stars.
1.4 The light that G-d Created, and the Good that resulted, attracts
some of the Nephilim, who worship the Lord continually.
1.4 The darkness, and the evil that Was Separated From the Good
that He Created, attracts some of the Nephilim, whose thoughts
are only evil continually.
1.5 G-d Chose To Name some components of His Creation.
1.10 The earth and the seas.
1.11 There was not a creature in His Image to appreciate and love
Him for all His Efforts on their behalf.
2.5 The earth was unplanted and G-d Had Not Caused It To Rain
Yet Upon the earth, neither was there a man yet to till it.
2.6 G-d Caused a mist To Come Up from the earth to water the
surface.
2.7 Tuesday, being the third day, The Lord Formed man of the dust
of the Earth. He Only Exhaled Upon him, who Then Became a living
soul. He Sustained him By The Word And The Presence Of G-d.
2.8 G-d Planted a garden, eastward, in Eden, and there He
Put the man, to enjoy the benefit thereof.
2.9 G-d Made trees, good to the sight, and good for food,
in Eden; also the tree of life, that every man might endure
as a lasting tribute to his Father Who Made him. And the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil, that all evil Be Kept
From him, Placed Here By G-d for Safe Keeping.
2.10 The Lord Caused a river To Flow Out of Eden and Become
four heads, To Water the garden in every direction;
Pishon, Gihon, Hiddeqel, and Perat.
The Lord Caused His Wisdom To Flow Out of Heaven and Become
Four Heads, To Cleanse the Earth in every direction;
Torah, Evangel, Koran, and Seven Stars.
2.11 Land of Havilah has gold.
2.12 Gold is good in Havilah, also has bdellium, and onyx stone,
that the Lord May Provide Adornment for His Children.
2.15 The Lord Gives the man the task of a son charged with
dressing and keeping his father's garden.
2.16 G-d Gives Of All trees in Eden to the man, to eat.
2.17 G-d Denies the tree of the knowledge of good and evil to the
man, and Warns Of his death by so doing.
1.12 Herb yielding seed, tree bearing fruit.
1.14 Day.
1.14 Night.
1.15 Great light, lesser light, and stars for light at night, and to mark
the passing of time.
1.18 Light.
1.18 Darkness.
2.18 That the man should be alone.
2.18 G-d Will Make a help meet for the man.
2.19 G-d Allows the man to name all the beasts.
1.20 Swarms of fish and fowl, living consciousness.
1.20 Consciousness separate from G-d.
1.22 G-d's Blessing Upon the swarms.
1.25 Beast, cattle, and everything that creepeth, living consciousness.
1.25 Consciousness, separate from G-d.
1.26 Man in Our Image, Our Likeness, and Give Dominion Over beast.
Consciousness to Know and Do G-d's Will in regards to animal
husbandry, and the land, but also Having free will.
1.26 Consciousness, separate from G-d.
2.20 No help meet found for Adam.
2.a21-2 Friday, being the sixth day, G-d Causes a great sleep upon
the man, that he Understand death. G-d Made a woman for the man.
He Could Have Made More, But G-d In His Wisdom Selected one
wife for the man He Created; Though He Provided A Multitude of
creatures for him. Providing a proper spouse Is A Sacred Obligation
For All parents. What G-d and man Hath Joined Together, let none
Cast Asunder. G-d Makes A Woman Of The Beauty Of Man. G-d
Also Took Ambition From Man In The Making Of Woman.
2.21-2 The woman had not the same understanding of death, as
had the man. G-d Took Beauty From The Man In The Forming Of
A Woman. The Woman Received Ambition From Out Of Man.
2.b21-2 Man did not lose all ambition, or even all beauty. Look not
on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; for it is not as
man seeth: for man looketh on the outward appearance, but The
Lord Looketh on the heart.
2.23 Man accepts the woman as same, bone and flesh, as him. In
his acceptance, the man Accepts From G-d All That He Removed
from him, in the woman, That Is Good.
2.23 The man Accepts From G-d All That He Removed from him,
in the woman, That Is Bad.
2.a24 Man Shall Leave his father and his mother, Cleave unto his
wife, And they Shall Be One Flesh. You Have Only One G-d,
Likewise Shall you Have Only One wife.
2.a24 That a man should ever find cause to be forced to choose
between his father and mother, or his wife. Or a man choose a
woman above his G-d.
2.b24 By celibacy, shall a man choose his G-d above a woman,
and deny ambition.
2.b24 By celibacy, shall a man also deny beauty.
2.25 Man and his wife are naked and unashamed Before G-d.
1.27 G-d's Word Is Performed concerning man, and His Plan
for a Son in His Image, Started.
1.28 G-d's Blessing Upon man, and man's Dominion.
1.29 G-d Gives herb and tree To man for food.
1.30 G-d Gives herb To beast, fowl, and creeping thing, for food.
Only man may discern between trees, so only man may eat of them.
1.31 G-d Beholds Everything He Has Made, and it is very good.
2.2 G-d Finished His Work, and Rested.
2.3 G-d Blessed and Hallowed the Seventh Day. Six days shall
work be done; but on the Seventh Day is a Sabbath of Solemn
Rest, a Holy Convocation; ye shall do no manner of work; it is a
Sabbath Unto the Lord in all your dwellings.
3.1 The subtlety of the serpent over all the beasts of the field, by
means of the Nephilim who inhabited the beast, through jealousy
of man.
3.1 The serpent verified that the woman Understood the Word of G-d.
3.4 The serpent calls the Word of G-d a lie, the woman did not
refute this. The woman was selected because G-d Had Not
Caused her to Taste death, as had the man, during her Creation.
3.4 G-d Had Spared the woman the Experience of death.
3.5 The serpent claims that man will be rewarded for disobedience
to G-d. The woman took the serpent In Place Of G-d.
3.5 The woman Had Already Known Goodness By G-d.
3.6 Woman blindly seeks ambition, disobeys, and steals from G-d.
Man took the woman In Place Of G-d. Man also disobeys G-d, and
receives stolen contraband; both chose impermanence. G-d's
Dominion ends, and Dominion by Nephilim begins. Man, Knowing
Only good, now Must Know evil.
3.7 Man and woman cover their nakedness, display an Awareness
With G-d.
3.8 G-d Walks In the garden Toward the cool of the day. Man and
woman Aware Of Guilt.
3.8 Man and woman hide from G-d among the trees. G-d Walks
Alone.
3.9 G-d Must Ask the man where he is.
3.10 Man Has Now Received A Fear Of G-d.
3.10 Man affirms his Fear Of G-d, and his hiding from Him.
3.11 G-d Must Ask the man if he disobeyed Him.
3.12 Man affirms his disobedience of G-d's Word, and identifies
the woman as the source of his disobedience.
3.13 G-d Must Ask the woman what she has done.
3.13 Woman affirms her disobedience of G-d's Word, and
identifies the serpent as the source of her disobedience.
3.14 The serpent Is Cursed By G-d To the dust, for having
conspired with the Nephilim to mortalize man.
3.14 G-d Cares Enough To Punish. G-d Has Given the serpent
and the Nephilim, Rule Instead Over the dust of man, but not
the life of man, for dust he was, and dust he shall be, unto the
Return Of G-d's Kingdom.
3.15 The serpent Is Again Cursed By G-d, for its role with the
Nephilim in the life of man. The instrument of its affliction, to be the
woman and her seed, against its seed. 'They will bruise its head,
and it bruise their heel', until the end of it's dominion. The Lord
Must Punish all beasts By Confounding their language, To Prevent
the Nephilim from influencing man through beast.
3.15 G-d's Punishment Fits the offence. His Dominion Will Be
Restored at the end of the beast, when men offer their hands
and their hearts to each other freely, and be nothing less than
what G-d Created them As.
3.16 Woman Is Cursed By G-d With great pain in childbirth,
ambition unto her husband, and to be ruled by him, as of beast.
3.16 G-d Cares Enough To Punish, And Is Just.
3.17 Adam Is Cursed By G-d To Toil all his days toward the ground.
For taking the evil of it, hunger is come upon man and beast.
3.17 G-d Cares Enough To Punish, And Is Just.
3.18 Toil, thorns, and thistles shall the earth bring.
3.18 G-d Cares Enough To Punish, And Is Just.
3.19 'In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground'. Man has now made himself as insignificant to
G-d as dust.
3.19 G-d Cares Enough To Punish, And Is Just.
3.20 G-d Allows Eve To Be the mother of all living,
that His Efforts For A Son are not destroyed with Adam.
3.20 Adam makes light of G-d's Punishments by naming the
woman 'Life'. The life he chose, instead of G-d's Everlasting One.
3.a21 G-d Clothes man and woman. The Lord Will Give
His Laws, Statutes, And Ordinances that man may live
and not die, and he Shall Be Clothed In Righteousness.
3.21 G-d Clothes man and woman With garments of skins. This is
the first death, and now they Are Clothed By It. With death,
disease is now come into the world. Later shall man clothe himself
by religion, rather than faith.
3.b21 The Lord Shall Make them:
One Faith For One G-d.
3.22 G-d Has Concern That the man would now take of the tree of
life, and void His Word again. That he Cannot Be Trusted By G-d.
That there should be beings in the Image Of G-d, corrupted by evil,
and living forever.
3.22 The Lord Shows Justice To man, And Considers
What He Must Do To Preserve His Holy Word. The
Lord Will Show man That Every Word That Proceedeth
From The Mouth Of The Lord Shall Be A Tree Of Life
Unto him.
3.23 G-d Exiles the man and woman From Eden's garden,
Eastward Into Eden.
3.23 The Lord Punishes With Righteousness,
And Preserves His Holy Word.
3.24 G-d Protects the tree of life Against man.
3.24 The Lord Protects His Word, From man, Into The Future. The
Way Of Return: Westward Unto The Garden, Between The Two
Mountains, EBAL AND GERIZIM, With G-d In your Heart.
From the days of your fathers ye have turned aside from Mine
Ordinances, and have not kept Them.
'Return Unto Me, And I Will Return Unto you', Saith The Lord Of
Hosts.
But ye say, 'Wherein shall we Return?' Will a man rob G-d? Yet ye
rob Me. But ye say, 'Wherein have we robbed Thee?' In Tithes And
Offerings. Ye Are Cursed With The Curse, yet ye rob Me, even this
whole nation.
'Bring ye The Whole Tithe Into The Storehouse, That There May Be
Food In My House, And Put Me To The Test With That', Saith The
Lord Of Hosts, ' If I Will Not Open you The Windows Of Heaven,
And Pour Out for you Blessing, Immeasurable, That There Shall
Be More Than Sufficiency; And I Will Rebuke the devourer For
your Good, And he Shall Not Destroy the fruits of your land;
Neither Shall your vine Cast its fruit Before The Time in the field',
Saith The Lord Of Hosts. 'And all nations shall call you Blessed;
for ye shall be "A Land Of Delight",' Saith The Lord Of Hosts.
2.12 Gold and jewels become a snare for man's ambition. Ye
cannot Serve G-d and cupidity.
4.1 Eve bears Cain.
4.1 Cain is the beginning of the son of man.
4.2 Cain tills soil.
4.2 Eve bears Able. Able tends sheep, with
benefit to man and beast.
4.3 Cain brought an offering Unto The Lord.
4.3 Cain brought the fruit of the ground The Lord Had Cursed, an
offering Unto The Lord.
4.4 Able brought of the firstlings of his flock, and of the fat
thereof, an offering Unto The Lord Which He Accepted. Is it by
number of prayers and prostrations performed, or by the heart and
works of his hand, that The Lord May Accept man.
4.5 The Lord Did Not Respect Cain or his offering, and Cain was
wroth, and his countenance fell.
4.5 The Lord Is Honest With Cain.
4.6 The Lord Has Concern For Cain And Spoke Unto him.
4.7 The Lord Teaches Cain How to conquer sin. Let each
man ask himself, which is greater: The love he has for the
Lord, or the hatred he has for his brother.
4.7 Cain also listens to the word of the Nephilim. And that word is:
To Put Ambition Above the life and health of man and beast, even
to the destruction of the whole world.
4.8 Cain ignores G-d's Teaching, and kills Able instead. He has no
Fear Of G-d.
4.9 The Lord Has Concern For Able.
4.9 The Lord Must Ask Cain where Able is. Cain lies, and is
disrespectful To G-d.
4.10 The Lord Must Ask Cain what he has done, his brothers
bloods cry out To G-d from the ground, from every man's brother.
He who slayeth any one, unless it be of a person guilty of murder
or of spreading disorders in the land, shall also be as though he
had slain all mankind.
4.11 The Lord Curses man from the ground, by his brothers bloods.
Blood is upon the face of the whole Earth, by the hand of man.
One man has killed every man's brother.
4.11 The Lord Cares Enough To Punish.
4.12 The ground shall no longer yield its strength, and with
starvation shall come disease. Cain shall become a fugitive and a
wanderer in the Earth.
4.12 The Lord's Punishment Is Just.
4.14 Cain, Driven Out of the land, And Away From The Face Of The
Lord, now also fears that anyone who finds him will kill him for the
starvation he has caused. The world shall end with the death of
men by every man's brother. Cain shall perish by the hand of Cain.
4.14 The meek, and those who can purify their hearts
from their violence, by repentance, will inherit the
Earth; for it is yet for the time appointed.
4.15 The Lord Set A Sign Upon Cain.
4.15 The Lord Shows Mercy to Cain, Both By Sparing him, And
Guarding his life.
4.16 Cain Is Exiled, Eastward From Eden, Into Nod.
4.16 Blessed Is The Lord Who Renders JUDGMENT, And
Places Lovingkindness And Compassion Above It.
This Is The Knowledge Of The Lord.
5.3 In the year one hundred, thirty, Adam begets a son in his own
likeness, after his image, and calls his name Seth.
5.3 Adam was more fruitful than the Lord in producing a son worthy
of him, in his image. There is little value in producing a son worthy
of his father, that is not worthy of our Father.
5.4 Adam begets sons and daughters.
5.6 In the year two hundred, thirty five, Seth begets Enosh.
5.7 Seth begets sons and daughters.
5.9 In the year three hundred, twenty five, Enosh begets Kenan.
5.10 Enosh begets sons and daughters.
5.12 In the year three hundred, ninety five, Kenan begets Mahalalel.
5.13 Kenan begets sons and daughters.
5.15 In the year four hundred, sixty, Mahalalel begets Jared.
5.16 Mahalalel begets sons and daughters.
5.18 In the year six hundred, twenty two, Jared Is Blessed With
Enoch. Jared Also Is Blessed For Enoch's Sake.
5.19 Jared begets sons and daughters. Blessed Also,
For Enoch's Sake.
5.21 In the year six hundred, eighty seven, Enoch begets
Methuselah.
5.22 Enoch Walked With G-d. Enoch begets sons and
daughters.
5.23 Enoch forgives Cain, and gives him his daughter in marriage.
Blessed be he who raises up his brother Before G-d and men, and
Blessed be he who is raised up also. He who saveth a life, shall be
as though he had saved all mankind alive.
4.17 Cain and his wife beget Enoch Cain, named in
honour of Enoch Seth.
A righteous name does not make a righteous man.
4.17 Cain builds the city of Enoch by the might of his hand, not his
heart on repentance.
4.17 Cain names his city in honour of Enoch Seth.
4.18 Enoch Cain begets Irad Cain, Irad with Mehujael Cain, and
Mehujael with Methushael Cain. Brothers of all men.
5.25 In the year eight hundred, seventy four, Methuselah Seth
begets Lamech Seth.
5.5 Adam dies in the year nine hundred, thirty. The reward of his
iniquity. His legacy passed down to his sons.
5.5 G-d's Word For Adam, Done.
5.24 Enoch Seth Walked With G-d, And G-d Took him in the year
nine hundred, eighty seven. G-d's Word For Adam's sons, Done.
5.26 Methuselah Seth begets sons and daughters.
5.8 Seth dies in the year one thousand, forty two.
5.28 In the year one thousand, fifty six, Lamech Seth Is Blessed
With Noah. Lamech Is Blessed Also For Noah's Sake.
5.11 Enosh dies in the year eleven hundred, forty.
5.14 Kenan dies in the year twelve hundred, thirty five.
5.17 Mahalalel dies in the year twelve hundred, ninety.
5.20 Jared dies in the year fourteen hundred, twenty two.
5.29 Lamech Finds Comfort Being Blessed With Noah,
Against The Lord's Curse on the land they must work,
and the deaths of his forefathers.
5.29 Hardship, and lack of food for all men.
5.30 Lamech begets sons and daughters, Blessed Also,
For Noah's Sake.
5.32 In the year fifteen hundred, fifty six, Noah begets Shem, Japeth,
and Ham.
4.18 Methushael Cain begets Lamech Cain.
4.19 Lamech Cain takes two sisters for wives, Adah and Zillah.
4.20 Adah bears Jabal, who raises cattle.
4.20 Jabal is a tent dweller, and a wanderer.
4.21 Adah bears Jubal, who makes music.
4.21 Jubal spends his time making music.
4.22 Zillah bears Tubal Cain, forger of brass and iron cutting tools.
Zillah bears Nahmah, his sister.
4.22 Tubal Cain makes cutting tools which may be used to cause
harm. He does not forge other useful things. Nahmah bears the
reproach of her brothers for the ambition of Eve. She, in turn, does
little to strengthen the hand of man.
4.23 Lamech Cain kills two men for slights to his person. While he
was still young, men and boys had bruised and injured him; and
against his will, had taken his two sisters for wives. The harm that
one man shall do will be upon all men, that all men shall destroy
each other.
4.23 G-d Will Allow All men To Be Destroyed by one man, that the
good that one man shall do will be upon all men.
4.24 Lamech Cain boasts to his wives that The Lord Will Take
Vengeance On the one who kills him, seventy and seven times.
Takes The Name Of G-d in vain.
4.24 The seed of the wicked will not endure forever. Nevertheless,
A man Shall Forgive his brother, I say not unto thee until seven
times, nor even seventy times seven, but until: seven hundred and
seventy times, Shall a man Forgive his brother. And ye Shall
Receive An Hundredfold, And Shall Inherit Everlasting Life.
4.26 Men begin to take The Name Of The Lord in vain.
6.1 Daughters are born unto man, that both may multiply upon the
Earth. The Nephilim were A Finished Creation unto themselves In
The Start Of The Process Of G-d Producing A Son. They were as
Adam, male only. The Lord Created Man In His Image; And It
Pleased Him To Create the beasts of the Earth Having Gender,
that they may multiply upon the Earth. With G-d's Success Here,
He Then Created woman from man, that they also may multiply
upon the Earth.
6.1 The Lord Determined that the Nephilim would not meet His
Ultimate Goal. The Nephilim Were Denied Progeny.
Inquire then of the Meccans, 'Whether thy Lord Hath Daughters,
and they sons?' Have We Created The Angels Females, and did
they witness it? Is it not a falsehood of their own devising, when
they say, 'G-d Hath Begotten?' They are indeed liars. Would He
Have Preferred Daughters To Sons? What reason have ye for
thus judging? Will ye not then receive this Warning?
6.2 The daughters of men were fair.
6.2 Sons Of G-d chose to clothe themselves in The Image Of G-d.
Some Nephilim take wives of daughters of men, whomsoever they
chose.
6.3 The Lord Limits The Lifespan of man to one hundred and twenty
years, that evil may not endure within The Image of G-d.
6.3 Man exists not by bread alone, but by The Spirit Of
The Lord Within him. Man Is Allowed to continue to exist.
6.4 The Nephilim were in the Earth in those days.
6.4 When the Sons Of G-d had offspring with the daughters
of men, the same were mighty men of renown.
6.5 Even though the daughters of men were fair, and even though
Sons Of G-d had borne offspring with them, every thought of man
was only evil continually, hence the one hundred, twenty year
lifespan. The beauty of women did not extend to the heart. Neither
had the Nephilim, the purity of heart that The Lord Desired In His
Image.
6.5 G-d Tolerated man's wickedness until his iniquity was full.
6.6 The Lord Grieved At Having Made man.
6.7 The Lord Decides To Blot Out All living creatures on the Earth.
All creatures Are Again Punished for man's iniquity.
6.7 The Nephilim who rejected the form G-d Provided them,
G-d Will Render noncorporeal.
6.8 Noah allows Ham and Nahmah Cain to marry. Blessed be he
who raises up his brother Before G-d and men, and Blessed be he
who is raised up also. He who saveth a life, shall be as though he
had saved all mankind alive. Noah finds Grace From The Lord.
6.9 G-d Found men and Nephilim not worthy of existence.
6.9 Noah is righteous, whole hearted, and Walks With G-d.
6.11 The Earth is corrupt and filled with violence.
6.12 All flesh had corrupted their way upon the Earth.
6.13-6 The Lord Teaches Noah how to survive His Wrath.
6.18 The Lord Establishes His Covenant With Noah.
Come, and let us return unto the Lord;
for He Hath Torn, And He Will Heal us;
He Hath Smitten, And He Will Bind us up;
after two days, Will He Revive us;
on the third day, He Will Raise us Up;
that we may live In His Presence.
6.18 The Lord Will Allow Noah only, to continue his existence; but
for man, not yet the time for The Lord To Provide him With a heart
Able To Exist Before The Lord Forever. Until all men love their
neighbors as themselves.
6.19-21 The Lord Allows Noah, a remnant of all living
things to keep alive, also food for all.
6.22 Noah Follows The Lord's Instructions.
5.31 Lamech Seth dies in the year sixteen hundred, fifty one.
Methuselah suffers the loss of his son, As The Lord Who Has
Suffered The Loss Of All the sons of men. Methuselah bore
witness to the death of all his fathers, except Enoch.
5.31 The Lord Allowed Lamech to die before Methuselah,
To See whether Methuselah would turn Toward Him or away.
7.1 The Lord Tells Noah that he alone is worth saving,
of all on earth.
7.1 Noah alone is worth saving.
7.4 The Lord Will Cause rain for forty days and nights, 'Till All life Is
Blotted Out'.
7.5 Noah Continues To Follow The Lord's Instructions.
7.10 In the tenth day of the second month, The Word Of The Lord
Went Forth For The Destruction Of All Life.
7.4 The Lord Gave Noah Seven Days Grace, to prepare.
5.27 Methuselah dies in the year sixteen hundred, fifty six, as the
flood begins. G-d Had Prolonged his life To See if he would follow
The Path of his father. Neither had he believed his son Noah,
though he spoke rightly; but all the ways of a man seem right unto
him, The Ways Of G-d are more distant, and no man repenteth him
of his wickedness, saying, 'What have I done?!'
5.27 Enoch had not required a long life Of The Lord, in order to
refuse the evil, and choose the good. His was the shortest in
those days.
7.16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh
As G-d Commanded Noah, And The Lord Shut them Into
Booths Within The Ark. On The Fifteenth Day of the second month,
they Were Shut In; And On The Fifteenth Day of the seventh month,
they Were Released. On The Fifteenth Day of the seventh month
is The Feast Of The Tabernacles, for Seven Days Unto The Lord,
To Remember The Seven Days Of Grace The Lord Provided To
Noah and to all living today. On The First Day shall be A Holy
Convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work. Seven days ye
shall Bring An Offering made by fire Unto The Lord, To Remember
that He Created the Nephilim by fire To Be A Son And A Help Meet
Unto Him, But Chose you Instead. On The Eighth Day shall be A
Holy Convocation unto you; and ye shall Bring An Offering made by
fire Unto The Lord; it is A Day Of Solemn Assembly; ye shall do
no manner of servile work. Howbeit, on The Fifteenth Day of the
seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruits of the land, ye
shall Keep The Feast Of The Lord seven days; on the First Day
shall be A Solemn Rest, and on The Eighth Day shall be a Solemn
Rest. And ye shall take you on The First Day, the fruit of goodly
trees, Such As ye Were Given when the Earth was new, branches
of palm-trees, and boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook,
and ye shall Rejoice Before The Lord your G-d, seven days. And ye
Shall Keep It A Feast Unto The Lord Seven Days in the year; it is
A Statute For Ever in your generations; ye shall Keep It in the
seventh month on The Fifteenth Day, The Day Ye Were Released.
Ye shall Dwell in booths Seven Days; all that are home-born in
Israel, land of Eden, Shall Dwell in booths; that your generations
may know that I Made All creatures To Dwell In Booths when I
Brought them Out Of the land of Eden. I Am The Lord Your G-d.
7.11 In the seventeenth day of the second month, the waters of the
flood were upon the Earth. The Word Of The Lord Was Begun For
The Destruction Of All Life.
7.21 All flesh perished that moved upon the Earth.
7.22 All the Nephilim that were in the Earth, also perished from the
Earth. The consciousness of these Nephilim remains toward iniquity.
7.22 The Lord Valued Noah Above the Nephilim. The
consciousness of the Nephilim survives, to yet choose
the good.
8.3-4 After one hundred and fifty days, in the seventh month on the
seventeenth day, The Destruction Of All Life Was Completed.
8.1 G-d Remembered Noah And All that were with him.
And G-d Made A Wind To Pass-over The Earth,
and the waters were assuaged.
8.3-4 After the end of one hundred and fifty days, the waters
decreased. In the seventh month, in the first day of the month,
shall be a Solemn Rest unto you, a Memorial proclaimed with
the blast of horns, a Holy Convocation. Ye shall do no manner
of servile work; and ye shall bring an offering made by fire Unto The
Lord. Howbeit, on the tenth day of this seventh month is the
Day Of Atonement, there shall be a Holy Convocation unto you,
and ye shall afflict your souls, and ye shall bring an offering made
by fire Unto The Lord. And ye shall do no manner of servile work in
that same day, for it is a Day Of Atonement, to make atonement
for you Before The Lord your G-d. For whatsoever soul it be that
shall not be afflicted in that same day, he Shall Be Cut Off from
his people. And whatsoever soul it be that doeth any manner of
work in that same day, that soul Will I Destroy from among his
people. Is Not This The Fast That I Have Chosen: To Loose The
Fetters of wickedness, To Undo The Bands of the yoke, And To
Let the oppressed Go Free, and that ye break every yoke? Is It Not
To Deal thy Bread to the hungry, And that thou Bring the poor that
are cast out, To thy House? When thou Seest the naked, That
thou Cover him, And That thou Hide Not thyself from thine own
flesh? Ye shall do no manner of work; it is a Statute for ever
throughout your generations in all your dwellings. It shall be
unto you a Sabbath of solemn rest, and ye shall afflict your
souls; in the ninth day of the seventh month at even, from
even unto even, shall ye keep your Sabbath, for on the tenth
day The Word Of The Lord Was Concluded For The
Destruction Of All Life. On The Fifteenth Day of this seventh
month is The Feast Of Tabernacles For Seven Days Unto The
Lord. On The First Day Shall Be A Holy Convocation; ye Shall Do
No Manner Of Servile Work. Seven Days ye Shall Bring An Offering
Made By Fire Unto The Lord; On The Eighth Day Shall Be A Holy
Convocation unto you; And ye Shall Bring An Offering Made By
Fire Unto The Lord; It Is A Day Of Solemn Assembly; ye Shall Do
No Manner Of Servile Work. These Are The Appointed Seasons
Of The Lord, Which ye Shall Proclaim To Be Holy Convocations,
To Bring An Offering Made By Fire Unto The Lord, A Burnt-Offering,
And A Meal-Offering, A Sacrifice, And Drink-Offerings, Each On Its
Own Day; Besides The Sabbaths Of The Lord, And Beside your
Gifts, And Beside All your Vows, And Beside All your Free-Will
Offerings Which ye Give Unto The Lord.
6.8 But Noah Found Grace In The Eyes Of The Lord.
8.7 Noah sent forth a raven. The Lord Allowed Satan to go to and
fro in the Earth To See which of the sons of men would be
corrupted by him. The Lord Also Allowed him to walk up and down
in the Earth as his own possession until this is accomplished.
8.7 The raven went forth to and fro until the waters were dried up.
So too shall the workers of iniquity go to and fro in the Earth until
G-d's Kingdom Begins. And the raven, his end shall be with a flood,
the final weeks end.
8.8 Noah sent forth a dove. The Lord Had Sent Noah.
8.9 The dove found no rest for the sole of her foot. So too shall the
Peace-keepers find no rest in the Earth until G-d's Kingdom
Begins. The Lord Sent Noah unto a lawless generation. He found
no rest for the sole of his foot.
8.9 The dove returned unto Noah, to the ark, for the waters were
on the face of the whole Earth; And he put forth his hand, and
took her, and brought her in unto him, into the ark. Noah
Returned Unto The Lord, to the ark, for the waters were on the face
of the whole Earth; And He Put Forth His Hand, And Took him,
And Brought him In Unto Him, into the ark. The Children Of The
Lord shall neither bow nor pray toward the rising or setting of the
sun, but they shall Rise Up And Down In Holiness Between
Heaven And Earth.
8.10 Noah sent the dove again after seven days.
8.11 The dove returns at evening with a fresh olive leaf. The Lord
Will Extend An Olive Branch Of Peace unto the world At The Start
Of His Kingdom.
8.11 The Dove returns to The Lord Who Sent him, still bearing The
Olive Branch He Offered For The Peace of the whole world.
8.12 Noah again sent the dove after another seven days, and
she does not return. G-d's Peace With The World Will Be
Everlasting, beginning on the fourteenth day of the first month
at evening, after The Lord Makes A Wind To Pass-over The
Earth For its Salvation. In the first month, on the fourteenth
day of the month at dusk, is The Lord's Pass-over.
8.12 The Dove that The Lord Anointed, Returns Again To Recover
the remnant of His People. He shall be cut off by the last week and
be no more.
7.10 Evil shall rule the final week.
8.13 In the first day of the first month, the waters were dried up.
This is the first day of the first month of G-d's Kingdom on Earth,
His First Covenant, Made With Noah; His First Peace-Offering, For
The Peace of the world. And His Final Peace-Offering On The
Fifteenth Day of the same month which is The Feast Of
Unleavened Bread Unto The Lord; Seven Days ye shall eat
unleavened bread. In the First Day ye shall have A Holy
Convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work. Then ye shall
bring The Sheaf Of The First-fruits of your harvest unto the Priest.
And he Shall Wave The Sheaf Before The Lord, To Be Accepted for
you; on the morrow after The Sabbath, the Priest Shall Wave it.
And In The Day When ye Wave The Sheaf, ye shall Offer a he lamb
Without Blemish of the first year for A Burnt-Offering Unto The Lord.
And The Meal-Offering thereof shall be two tenth parts of an ephah
of fine flour mingled with oil, An Offering made by fire Unto The Lord
for a sweet savour; and the Drink-Offering thereof shall be of wine,
the fourth part of a hin. And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched
corn, nor fresh ears, until this selfsame day, until ye have brought
The Offering Of your G-d; It Is A Statute For Ever throughout your
generations in all your dwellings. And ye shall Bring An Offering
made by fire Unto The Lord Seven Days; in The Seventh Day Is A
Holy Convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work.
8.14 After seven weeks, the Earth was dry. And ye shall count
unto you from the morrow after The Day Of Rest (Sabbath), from
the day that ye brought The Sheaf Of Waving; seven weeks shall
there be complete; even unto the morrow after the seventh
week shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall present A New
Meal-Offering Unto The Lord. Ye shall bring out of your dwellings
Two Wave-loaves of two tenth parts of an ephah; they shall be of
fine flour, they shall be baked with leaven, For First-fruits Unto The
Lord. And ye shall present with the bread, seven lambs without
blemish of the first year, and one young bullock, and two rams;
they shall be A Burnt-offering Unto The Lord, With Their Meal-
offering, And Their Drink-offerings, Even An Offering made by fire,
of a sweet savour Unto The Lord. And ye shall offer one he
goat for A Sin-offering, and two he lambs of the first year for
A Sacrifice Of Peace-offerings, and you shall remember the
journeys of both Raven and Dove upon the Earth. And the
Priest Shall Wave them with the bread of The First-fruits For A
Wave-offering Before The Lord, with the two lambs; They Shall Be
Holy To The Lord for the Priest. And ye shall make proclamation on
the selfsame day; there shall be A Holy Convocation unto you;
ye shall do no manner of servile work; it is A Statute For Ever
in all your dwellings throughout your generations. And when ye
reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corner
of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleaning of thy harvest;
thou shalt leave them for the poor, and for the stranger: I Am The
Lord Your G-d.
8.17 In the year sixteen hundred, fifty seven, The First Year Of Our
Lord After Flood, Commanded He Unto Noah And All that were
with him To Be Fruitful And Multiply Upon the Earth. All who
remain on the Earth Shall Again Receive His Blessing, For The
Baptism Of Noah by water, Was Upon The Face of the whole Earth,
And Upon All the living.
8.20 A Baptism By Fire Would Be Required, upon beast;
and inevitably upon man, even upon every man's brother.
8.20 Noah built an altar and sacrificed of every clean beast and
fowl To G-d. That thou shalt Set Apart Unto The Lord, all that
openeth the womb; every firstling that is a male, which thou Hast
Coming of a beast, shall be The Lord's. And every firstling of an
ass, thou shalt Redeem With a lamb; and if thou wilt not Redeem
it, then thou shalt break its neck; and all the first-born of man
among thy sons, shalt thou Redeem. And it shall be, when thy
son asketh thee in time to come, saying, 'What is this?', that thou
shalt say unto him, 'By Strength Of Hand, The Lord Brought Us
Out From Eden, from the house of iniquity; and it came to pass,
when our sins would hardly let us go, that The Lord Slew All the
first-born In The Land Of Eden, Both The First-Born Of Man, And
The First Born Of Beast; therefore I Sacrifice To The Lord All that
openeth the womb, being males; But All the first-born of my sons,
I Surely Redeem. And it shall be for a sign upon thy hand, and for
frontlets between thine eyes; For By Strength Of Hand, The Lord
Brought us Forth Out Of Eden.
8.21-2 The Lord Decided Not To Curse the ground Again for man's
sake, Nor Smite.
8.21 The Lord Concedes, the imagination of man's heart is evil from
his youth.
9.1 G-d Blessed Noah And His Sons, And Said Unto Them, 'Be
Fruitful, And Multiply, And Replenish the Earth.'
9.2 And the fear of you, and the dread of you, shall be upon every
beast of the Earth, and upon all creatures: Into Your Hand Are
They Delivered. For just as Adam Feared G-d for what he had done,
so also shall beast fear man for the evil which they perceive within
man: the iniquity man had received by the serpent on behalf of all
creatures.
9.2 All creatures Are Delivered Into Your Hand Also For Mercy
unto them.
9.3 Every living thing may also be for food for you, as the green herb
I Have Given.
9.3 Every moving thing that lives may be for food for you.
9.4 Flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye
not eat.
9.5 The blood of your lives Will G-d Now Require, by famine, by
disease, by beast, and by man, even by every man's brother.
9.5 G-d Will Repay injustice With Justice, whether to man or to
beast.
9.6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, must, by man, have his blood
shed, for In The Image Of G-d Was Made Man.
9.6 The Image Of G-d Cannot Be Destroyed by man Without
Retribution.
9.7 'All things be fruitful, and multiply; and swarm, and multiply.'
9.8-17 G-d Establishes His Covenant With All Living Things,
To Not Again Destroy the Earth With A Flood. 'The Bow In
The Cloud', As His Token. G-d's Covenant is with man, and Does
Not Extend To The Nephilim That Transgress His Authority, and
again clothe themselves In His Image. This Is My Covenant with
you: The Law That The Seas May Not Overtake The Land.
'Who Shut Up the sea With Doors,
When it Broke Forth, And Issued Out of the womb;
When I Made the cloud, The Garment Thereof,
And thick darkness, A Swaddling-band For It,
And Prescribed for it, My Decree,
And Set Bars And Doors,' And Said,
'Thus Far Shalt thou Come, But No Further;
And Here Shall thy Proud Waves Be Stayed?'
Take care of the beasts which have the
blood which is the life thereof, but forsake not the land, that in
times of drought, ye may feed yourselves and your flocks.
Droughts Must Come, That Total Destruction By Flood Does Not.
9.20 Noah took up the work of his father.
9.20 Noah planted a vineyard. He ceased to tend to beasts.
9.21 Noah drank of his wine, and was drunken and naked within
his tent. The Lord Will Remember The Sins of him who turns away
from doing righteousness, And Forget his Past Righteousness.
9.21 Drunkenness cannot substitute for righteousness. The Lord
Will Remember The Righteousness of him who turns away from
doing iniquity, And Forget his Past Sins.
9.22 Ham saw his father's nakedness, and told his two brothers.
He does not cover him: for shame and judgment of him.
9.23 Shem and Japeth saw not their father's nakedness, but
covered their father.
9.25 Noah curses Canaan, the youngest son of the youngest son,
for his 'curse' is of the end of days. As being like Cain shall he be
identified, and as a servant to his brothers, for inaction on his
father's behalf. The Lord Shall Make Canaan To Pass Through the
iron furnace of Slavery.
9.25 The Lord Shall Prepare Canaan For Purification, that he Be
Purified in order to serve The Servants Of G-d by Delivering His
Holy Word from Israel to the nations. And The Lord Set A Sign
for Canaan To Identify Him. They Shall Receive Their Bread First
Before All The Nations. Israel Shall Be Holy Unto The Lord, And
Canaan Shall Be Holy Unto The Word. And they shall be as
Shelah Judah and as Shaul Simeon, unto Judah and unto Israel,
rather than, as Nethinim. And as Naphtali and Dan did Prosecute
And Judge Israel For Bilhah's Sake, so shall they do likewise unto
all nations, According To The Law.
9.26 Noah blesses Shem.
9.27 Noah blesses Japeth.
9.26-7 Noah did not forgive his youngest son, so G-d Did Not
Forgive Noah.
9.29 G-d Will Not Allow Mercy Denied to Canaan Forever.
I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem,
as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
Look not upon me, that I am swarthy,
that the sun hath tanned me;
my mother's sons were incensed against me,
they made me keeper of the vineyards;
but mine own vineyard have I not kept.
The watchmen that go about the city found me,
they smote me, they wounded me;
the keepers of the walls took away my mantle from me.
By night on my bed I Sought Him Whom my soul Loveth;
I Sought Him, But I Found Him Not.
Under The Apple-Tree I Awakened thee;
'Take us the foxes,
the little foxes, that spoil the vineyards;
for our vineyards are in blossom.'
Until the day breathe,
and the shadows flee away,
My soul failed me When He Spoke.
I Sought Him, But I Could Not Find Him;
I Called Him, But He Gave me No Answer.
Thou That Dwellest in the gardens,
the companions Hearken For Thy Voice:
'Cause me To Hear It.'
Come With Me from Lebanon, My Bride,
With Me from Lebanon;
Look from the top of Amana,
from the top of Senir and Hermon,
from the lions' dens,
from the mountains of the leopards.
Set Me As A Seal Upon thy heart,
As A Seal Upon thine arm;
For Love Is Strong as death,
Jealousy Is Cruel as the grave;
The Flashes Thereof Are Flashes Of Fire,
A Very Flame Of The Lord.
Many waters Cannot Quench Love,
Neither Can the floods Drown It;
Before I was aware, my soul set me upon the chariots of my
princely people. Who is this that cometh up out of the wilderness
like pillars of smoke, Behold, it is the litter of Solomon; threescore
mighty men are about it, of the mighty men of Israel. They all
handle the sword, and are expert in war; every man hath his sword
upon his thigh, because of dread in the night.
Thou art beautiful, O My Love, as Tirzah,
Comely as Jerusalem,
Terrible as an army with banners.
There are threescore queens,
and fourscore concubines,
and maidens without number.
Thy neck is like the tower of David builded with turrets,
whereon there hang a thousand shields,
all the armour of the mighty men.
My Dove, My Undefiled, is but one;
she is the only one of her mother;
she is the choice one of her that bore her.
The daughters saw her, and called her happy;
yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.
Who is she that looketh forth as the dawn,
fair as the moon, clear as the sun,
terrible as an army with banners?
I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.
As a lily among thorns, so is my Love among the daughters.
Return, return, O Shulammite;
Return, return, that we may look upon thee.
What will ye see in the Shulammite?
As it were a dance of two companies.
How beautiful are thy steps in sandals,
O prince's daughter!
Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness,
Leaning Upon her Beloved?
We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts;
What Shall we Do for our sister In The Day
When she shall be Spoken For?
If she be a wall, we will build upon her a turret of silver;
and if she be a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
I am a wall, and my breasts like the towers thereof;
Then Was I In His Eyes As one That Found Peace.
For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing is come,
and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
The fig-tree putteth forth her green figs,
and the vines in blossom give forth their fragrance.
11.10 Shem begat Arpachshad, two years after the flood.
11.11 Shem begat sons and daughters.
11.12 Arpachshad Shem begat Shelah, thirty seven years after flood.
11.13 Arpachshad begat sons and daughters.
11.14 Shelah Shem begat Eber, sixty seven years after flood.
11.15 Shelah begat sons and daughters.
11.16 Eber Shem begat Peleg, one hundred and one years after
flood.
11.17 Eber begat sons and daughters.
11.18 Peleg Shem begat Reu, one hundred, thirty one years after
flood.
11.19 Peleg begat sons and daughters.
11.20 Reu Shem begat Serug, one hundred, sixty three years after
flood.
11.21 Reu begat sons and daughters.
11.22 Serug Shem begat Nahor, one hundred, ninety three years
after flood.
11.23 Serug begat sons and daughters.
11.24 Nahor Shem begat Terah, two hundred, twenty two years
after flood.
11.25 Nahor begat sons and daughters.
11.26 Terah Shem begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran, Two hundred,
ninety two years after flood.
11.1 The whole Earth was of one language, and of one speech.
11.2 The families of the sons of Noah traveled east again into Nod,
as Cain had done.
10.9 Nimrod Cush was a mighty hunter Before The Lord, dwelling
eastward in Nod, to build Babel where Cain Was Driven, to the
detriment of the animals there.
Wilt thou hunt the prey for the lioness? Or satisfy the appetite of
the young lions, when they couch in their dens, and abide in the
covert to lie in wait? Or provideth for the raven, his prey, when his
young ones cry unto G-d, and wander for lack of food?
10.19 The families of the Canaanite returned unto Eden. All their
actions In This Place Shall Be Judged.
11.4 The Nephilim, Banished From Human Form by the flood,
coach those people of weaker morals, to sin. The people build a
city, as Cain did, and a tower to heaven in the land of Nod where
Cain had built Enoch. For the people, it was a prideful attempt to
make a name for themselves, as if they could own The Glory Of
G-d by the might of their arm. A false 'g-d', an idol unto them. For
the Nephilim though, it meant the rebuilding of the City of Enoch
above all others.
11.4 The people knew They Would Be Scattered Abroad As Cain
Upon the face of The Whole Earth, if they could not Be Received
Of G-d.
11.5 The Lord Came Down To See what the children of men builded.
11.6 The people are one people, and one language.
11.6 Though the people and language was one, they misconceived
what they needed to do, To Walk With G-d In Their Hearts.
11.7 The Lord Must Punish Man By Confounding His Language.
11.7 G-d Knew What The Nephilim Were Doing And Thwarted Their
Efforts. G-d's Plan Will Be Accomplished when the sons of men
turn their hearts instead to their brothers, and Become The True
Sons Of G-d, Not In The Image Only, But Also In The Spirit. The
Lord Cared Enough To Punish man, And Is Just.
11.a8 Racial prejudice allowed miscommunication to divide all
peoples. They Are Scattered Abroad upon the face of all the
Earth.
11.8 The Lord Was Merciful In His Punishment.
11.b8 The Lord Must Yet Make The Final Destruction Of Babel,
And On Those Who Would Rebuild Her.
10.6 Put, with the lightest skin of all Ham's sons, developed a
caste system in the region of Egypt, with his people ruling over all
the sons of Ham, as priests and as Pharaohs.
10.9 The Lord Did Not Allow Nimrod his slaughter of animals to
continue, Ethiopian Ham Was Driven to reside with Egypt Ham his
brother, after the fall of Babel. He Showed them Mercy By Sparing
Many Lives. Those that remained, He Later Brought Israel Against,
when their iniquity was full.
10.19 The Lord Will Not Allow Iniquity To Return Where He Had
Removed It. He Caused Canaanite Ham To Go To Egypt Ham his
brother, after the fall of Babel. He Showed them Mercy By Sparing
Many Lives. Those that remained, He Later Brought Israel Against,
when their iniquity was full.
10.25 In the days of Peleg Shem Was The Earth Divided.
11.19 Peleg Shem dies in battle over ownership of Babel, three
hundred, forty years after flood.
11.25 Nahor Shem dies in battle over ownership of Babel, three
hundred, forty one years after flood.
11.28 Haran, son of Terah Shem dies in battle over ownership of
Babel, Haran dies in the presence of his father.
9.29 Noah dies, three hundred, fifty years after the flood, not having
attained to the righteousness of his forefather, Enoch. He had not
prevented the building of Babel; his, and his sons racial prejudices;
or the battle afterward. In less time than Enoch was able to attain
The Way Of G-d, Noah had allowed all men to be divided by hatred
and war.
10.5 The isles of The Nations Were Divided In Their Lands, every
one After His Tongue, After Their Families, in the nations of the
sons of Japeth. Many becoming merchants.
10.5 Some returned to the farming and husbandry they were
Created for.
10.20 The sons of Ham, After Their Families, After Their Tongues,
In Their Lands, after their nations, Divided Thereby. Many affected
by their caste system and the slavery it created.
10.20 Some returned to the farming and husbandry they were
Created for.
10.31 The sons of Shem, After Their Families, After Their Tongues,
In Their Lands, in their nations, Divided Thereby. Many still held
control over Babel.
10.31 Some returned to the farming and husbandry they were
Created for.
10.32 The Lord Will Again Turn To The Peoples, A Pure Language,
that they may All Call Upon The Name Of The Lord, To Serve Him
with one consent.
11.9 The Lord Did Confound The Language of all the Earth, And
Scatter them Abroad upon the face of all the Earth.
11.9 That the doings of man should be such that The Lord Should
Find Cause To Confound The Language, And Scatter men Abroad
upon the face of all the Earth.
11.29 Abram and Nahor took themselves wives. Nahor wed Milcah,
daughter of Haran. And Abram wed Sarai.
11.30 Abram's wife was barren.
11.30 G-d Had Withheld Abram's Wife, Sarai From Bearing, that
seed be born unto them in Canaan instead.
11.31 Terah took Abram, Lot, and Sarai unto Canaan, to the place
he named Haran for his son who died.
11.31 Terah left his extended family in Babel.
12.1-3 The Lord Told Abram To Go To A Land Of His Choosing,
And He Will Make Him A Great Nation, And Will Bless Him, And
Make his name Great, Will Bless Them That Bless Him, And
Curse Them That Curse Him. By Him Shall All The Families Of
The Earth Be Blessed, For The Righteousness Of Abram's Seed
Shall Be Upon All Men, And Not Only Their Own Sins.
12.3 Had All the nations Been Judged by their own sins, None
Would Survive.
12.4 Abram Follows The Lord's Instructions. Departs Haran, three
hundred, sixty seven years after flood. Three hundred, sixty five
years after men were born again on the Earth.
12.5 Abram, Sarai, and Lot enter Canaan out of Haran.
12.5 All Terah's children had left him. Abram and Lot had gathered
substance and souls in Haran.
12.6 The Canaanite was then in the land, whose Actions Were To
The Displeasure Of The Lord.
12.6 Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shechem.
12.7 The Lord Appeared Unto Abram And Said: ' Unto Thy Seed
Will I Give This Land.' Abram then builded an altar Unto The Lord
there. Only the first-born of beasts shall be sacrificed, and will cull
the herds.
12.7 That animals must needs be sacrificed.
12.8 Abram traveled unto the mountain on the east of Beth-El and
builded another altar Unto The Lord.
12.8 The sacrifice of animals continues for the sins of men.
12.10 Famine was then in the land because of the souls that had
been gathered, and the iniquities of the inhabitants. Abram went to
Egypt to escape the famine. Egypt shall be a stumbling block unto
him, for The Lord Had Not Wanted him To Leave Canaan.
12.10 G-d Moves To Free The Souls.
12.11-5 Abram contrives deceit with Sarai. With sin of omission,
they denied Word And Sanctity of marriage. Abram had not faith
that G-d Would Spare him, Or Perform His Word.
12.12 Abram did not tempt G-d with The Decision To Spare his Life.
His fear did not cause him to take up arms against his brother,
but to sacrifice of himself instead.
12.16 Pharaoh dealt well with Abram for Sarai's sake, he had
sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and she-asses, men servants,
and maid servants, and camels; with the creation of pimp and
prostitute. Because of the lie and Pharaoh's power, Abram could
not oppose him.
12.17 The Lord First Warned Pharaoh by Dreams, which Pharaoh
ignored, Later, By Means Of Plagues.
12.17 The Lord Plagued Pharaoh With Great Plagues because of
Sarai.
2.18 Pharaoh confronts Abram about the lie.
12.19 Pharaoh acknowledges bigamy by Sarai, by reason of
Abram's deceit.
12.19 Pharaoh did not conceal his marriage to Sarai. G-d Will
Punish Sarai By Infertility. Pharaoh turned from his sin.
12.20 Pharaoh has Abram, Sarai, Lot, and all they had, removed
from Egypt by escort.
11.21 Reu Shem dies in Ur, three hundred, seventy years after
flood.
13.2 Abram is very rich in cattle, silver, and gold, The Lord Did Allow
This. The Lord Had Made Abram wealthy before going to Egypt.
13.2 Abram is very rich in cattle, silver, and gold partly by reason
of deceit, and by allowing himself to be bribed. Someone pays the
price for Abram's wealth.
13.3-4 Abram returns unto Beth-El, to the altar he made, and calls
On The Name Of The Lord.
13.5 Lot has flocks, herds, and tents. Lot also had wealth before he
went to Egypt, and he had not profited greatly by Abram's deceit,
but he did profit by his travels with Abram, by flocks, herds, and
tents.
13.6 Their possessions were so great, that Abram and Lot could no
longer live together.
13.7 There was strife between the herdsmen of Abram's cattle, and
of Lot's cattle. And the Canaanite and Perizzite also dwelt in the
same land, so room was not unlimited.
13.7 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, that will not
hearken to the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and
though they chasten him, will not hearken unto them; then shall
his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto
the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; and they shall
say unto the elders of his city: 'This, our son, is stubborn and
rebellious, he doth not hearken to our voice; he is a glutton, and a
drunkard.' And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones,
that he die; so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee;
and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
13.8-9 Abram tells Lot to separate from him.
13.8-9 Abram tells Lot to separate from him to avoid strife.
13.10 The plain of Jordan was well watered like the garden of Eden.
13.11 Lot journeyed east, apart from Abram, to the plain of Jordan.
13.12 Lot moved his tent as far as Sodom.
13.12 Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, as The Lord Had Told
Him.
13.13 The men of Sodom were wicked, and sinners Against The
Lord, exceedingly.
13.14-6 The Lord Spoke Unto Abram And Told him He Would Give
him All The Land he sees To The North, East, South, And West,
And To His Seed Forever, And His Seed Shall Be As The Dust Of
The Earth For Abundance.
13.7 The Lord Commands Abram To Walk Through The Length And
Breadth Of The Land, And He Will Give It to him.
13.18 Abram moved his tents to Hebron, and built there, an altar to
The Lord.
13.18 Abram built an altar for the sacrifice of animals upon. The
sins of men will someday exceed the number of animals on the
Earth.
14.2 The Wages of sin is war and death.
14.3 Alliances between cities for war.
14.4 Servitude and rebellion.
14.5-10 Slaughter of men; cowardice of kings, Sodom and
Gomorrah.
14.11 Spoils of war.
14.12 Slavery, Lot taken captive, women taken also.
14.12 Lot had taken slaves, therefore was he also taken. He that
leadeth into captivity, shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the
sword, must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the
faith of the saints.
14.13 Alliances formed also for safety.
14.13 Fear Of G-d is not universal. So shall men kill, and so shall
they die.
14.14 Sodomy was forced upon men and women by their captors.
Abram saved alive the men of Sodom using the many sons of
slaves he owned to do so. So also shall his sons, go into slavery.
14.14 Abram had a duty to his brother's son, Lot, which he fulfilled.
Abram showed mercy to all who were taken captive, by going to
their aid.
14.16 People were also hurt or killed by Abram's assault.
14.16 Abram restored the captives and goods taken.
14.17 Bera, king of Sodom, came to meet Abram after his success
in battle.
14.18 Bera, king of Sodom brought nothing for Abram's efforts, but
sought instead, a share of the spoils of war.
14.18 Melchizedek, king of Salem, Peace, Priest Of G-d The Most
High, brought forth bread and wine. G-d Had Made Melchizedek, a
king, for his righteousness To G-d.
14.19 Melchizedek blesses Abram By G-d. The righteous are
deserving of blessing, the unrighteous are deserving of prayer.
14.20 Melchizedek gives blessing To G-d for His Aid, and he is
given a tithe of all.
14.21 Bera, king of Sodom, offers Abram all the goods, saving the
persons for himself. People, even servants, have value over goods
and merchandise.
14.21 The people that Bera requests of Abram, would be subject to
Bera, including Lot.
14.22 Abram tells Bera that his success was For G-d's Glory Only.
14.23 Abram refuses any payment for what he has done.
14.24 Abram allows for his confederates to take their portions.
15.1 The Word Of The Lord Came to Abram In A Vision. G-d Would
Protect And Also Reward Abram.
15.2-3 Abram bemoans being childless, and his servant will inherit
his lot.
15. 2-3 Those who take their brother's sons for servants, except as a
mercy unto them, should be childless, and the servants will inherit
their masters lot.
15.4 G-d Denies Abram Will Be Childless, He Shall Have Heir.
15.5 G-d Informs Abram, his seed shall be as the stars of heaven
for multitude.
15.6 Abram believed In The Lord, Who Counted It to him For
Righteousness.
15.6 Believing In The Lord is not as righteous as Trusting In The
Lord.
15.7 G-d Reminds Abram that He Brought him Here To Inherit This
Land.
15.8 Abram questions G-d whereby he shall know that he shall
inherit it.
15.9-11 G-d Instructs Abram how to prepare For Him To Prove His
Word. Abram follows The Instructions.
15.12 G-d Puts Abram Into The Pit, that he may know death.
15.12 G-d Takes Abram On The Path he must travel To Reach Him,
The Path Of Trusting In The Lord.
But He Is At One With Himself, And who Can Turn Him?
And What His Soul Desireth, Even That He Doeth.
For He Will Perform That Which Is Appointed for me;
And Many Such Things Are With Him.
Therefore am I Affrighted At His Presence.
When I consider, I am Afraid Of Him.
Yea, G-d Hath Made my heart Faint,
And The Almighty Hath Affrighted me;
Because I Was Not Cut Off Before The Darkness,
Neither Did He Cover The Thick Darkness from my face.
15.13-6 G-d Tells Abram His Word Is A Surety, And Also His Plans
For The Future.
15.17 G-d Proves Abram's test Of G-d's Word.
15.18 The Word Of The Lord Is His Covenant.
16.1 Sarai could not conceive, by reason of adultery with Pharaoh,
and she now has an Egyptian servant as a consequence of the lie
to Pharaoh.
16.2 Sarai suggests Egyptian concubine for Abram. Abram obeys
wife. Instead of asking Forgiveness Of G-d for himself and Sarai,
He is unrepentant.
16.2 G-d Shall Allow the meek to possess the inheritance of the
mighty.
16.3 Sarai gives Hagar to Abram, to "wed". She remains still a
servant. Hagar was not therefore wed, but only concubine.
16.3 A Wife Comes From The Lord Only.
16.4 Abram breaks marriage vows with Sarai for Hagar, just as
Sarai had done for Pharaoh. Hagar conceives, and now also
despises Sarai.
16.5 Sarai recognizes her error, and voices her concern to Abram.
16.6 Abram places Hagar's fate in Sarai's hand, and that she show
mercy unto her.
16.6 Sarai dealt harshly with Hagar. Hagar forced to flee.
16.7 The Angel Of The Lord Finds Hagar.
16.8 The Angel Asks Hagar, and she replies honestly as to her
actions.
16.9 The Angel Counsels her to return and submit to Sarai. 'So
also shall all nations return and submit unto Israel, for He Shall Be
Holy, Even As I Am Holy,' Saith The Lord.
16.10 The Angel Tells her that her seed also shall not be numbered,
for multitude.
16.11 The Angel Tells her Of G-d's Compassion for her.
16.12 The Angel Tells her Of her son's wild nature, conferred on his
sons.
16.13 Hagar compliments G-d For Finding her, even as she was
trying to hide. There is nowhere, a place to hide from your sins, or
From G-d.
16.14 The well where Hagar Was Found, is named by her, to
indicate its significance.
16.15 The Word The Angel Brought To Hagar Is Confirmed.
16.16 Ishmael is born three hundred, seventy eight years After Flood.
17.1 The Lord Appeared To Abram And Showed him Favour that he
walk Before Him.
17.2 The Lord Makes A Covenant With Abram, And Promises him
Again, That his Seed Shall Not Be Numbered For Multitude.
17.3 Abram falls on his face Before G-d Who Spoke With him.
17.4 G-d Affirms His Covenant With Abram.
17.5 G-d Changes Abram's Name To Signify His Covenant That
Abram Shall Be the father of many nations. G-d Also Wants The
Seed Of Abram To Have An Understanding of what it is like To Be
A Son of Ham, And A Father also to the sons of Ham, And To
Have Knowledge of what it means to be slaves.
17.6 G-d Will Also Make Abraham Exceedingly Fruitful, As Kings
And Nations.
17.7 G-d's Covenant Will Be Everlasting, Extending To All his Seed
Throughout Their Generations.
17.8 G-d Will Give To Abraham, And his Seed, All The Land Of
Canaan Forever, And He Will Be their G-d.
17.9-13 G-d Will Only Require Circumcision As Acceptance Of
His Covenant.
17.14 G-d Makes Known His Condition.
17.14 Any man who is Uncircumcised Will Be Cut Off From His
Covenant.
17.15 G-d Renames Sarai, Sarah Princess.
17.16 G-d Will Bless Sarah, Give her A Son of him, Who Will Be
Kings And Nations.
17.17 Abraham fell on his face laughing at The Idea G-d Set Forth.
17.18 Abraham suggests To G-d what he considers a more
reasonable plan.
17.19 G-d Needed To Confirm His Word With Abraham. The man
He Would Make 'The father of many nations', laughs and strives
With Him.
17.19 G-d Confirms His Word.
17.20 G-d Will Also Make Ishmael A Great Nation And Will Bless
And Make him Fruitful.
17.21 G-d Will Not Establish His Covenant With Ishmael.
Ishmael's battle lies with Ishmael, as those who have adopted
ways of violence, to adopt instead, ways of peace.
17.21 G-d Will Establish His Covenant With Isaac, Sarah Will Bear
next year.
17.22 G-d Left Off Talking With Abraham, And Went Up From him.
17.23-7 Abraham fulfills G-d's Instructions For His Covenant, three
hundred, ninety one years After Flood. Abraham is ninety nine, and
Ishmael is thirteen.
18.2 Abraham perceives something Of A Divine Nature In Three Men
Who Stood Over Against him; he runs To Meet Them, and bows to
the Earth Before Them.
18.3 Abraham entreats The Lord Before him that if he is now Within
G-d's Favour, He Will Not Again Pass Away Before him. Abraham
repented his past actions Unto G-d, And He Forgave him.
18.4-5 Abraham suggests that since he is The Lord's Servant, that he
should do everything possible To Please G-d with his attentiveness.
They Agree To This.
18.6-7 Abraham makes his preparations, Sarah to make three cakes.
18.8 Abraham set food Before Them And They Did Eat, Accepted as
served. Abraham stood By Them As They Ate.
18.8 Abraham offered Them a calf served with curd and milk.
18.9 They Asked, Of Interest Concerning the whereabouts of Sarah,
his wife. Abraham said honestly, 'Behold, in the tent'.
18.10 He Said He Would Return Next Year, And Sarah Shall Have
A Son. When the seed of Abraham returns Unto The Lord Forever,
they also shall be fruitful.
18.10-2 Sarah overhears and laughs within herself.
18.12 Sarah did not laugh without herself, as Abraham had.
18.13-4 The Lord Questions Abraham wherefore Sarah did laugh
at The Lord's Decision, there is nothing too difficult for The Lord.
18.13-4 Abraham is not able to defend Sarah's inward thoughts
any better than he could control his own outward ones.
18.15 Sarah denies her actions by lie.
18.15 Sarah exhibits Fear Of The Lord in her denial; The Lord
Knoweth the hearts.
18.16 The Men Looked Out Toward Sodom.
18.16 The Men Rose Up, Abraham went With Them, wanting To
Accompany Them on the way.
18.17-9 The Lord Decides To Inform Abraham Of His Plans, that
Abraham may thereby command his children and his household
to keep The Way Of The Lord, to do righteousness, and justice,
keeping Covenant. This Mercy, The Lord Shall Also Bestow On
Abraham's Chosen Seed, that it is thus that Thy Lord Shall Choose
thee, And Will Teach thee The Interpretation Of Dark Sayings, And
Will Perfect His Favours on thee, and On The Family Of Jacob As
Of Old He Perfected On Thy Father's, Abraham And Isaac; Verily,
Thy Lord Is Knowing, Wise.
18.20 The Lord Said, 'The cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great,
and their sin is beyond grievous.'
18.21 The Lord Will Personally Investigate the cry of Sodom and
Gomorrah.
18.22 The Men Turned from thence, And Went Toward Sodom, To
Proceed With His Work. Abraham stood yet Before The Lord Who
Allowed It.
18.23-33 Abraham presumed to plead Before The Lord, 'If
righteousness were found among the persons living beside the
wicked, in the quantity of ten persons, The Lord Should Spare All,
for the sake of the ten.' G-d Allowed Abraham To Negotiate With
Him, down to the ten persons, And Agreed To Do So. Where There
Is G-d, there is humanity found.
18.33 But The Lord Went His Way, Entering Not Into Sodom, for
there were not ten. Where there is no humanity, There Is No G-d.
19.1 The Two Angels Came To Sodom, and Lot showed great
respect for Them.
19.2 Lot requests to host Them for the night.
19.2 The Angels Refuse Lot's request.
19.3 Lot urged Them greatly, and They Conceded to it.
19.4-5 The men of Sodom, young and old, encompassed Lot's
house and demanded Lot bring out 'The Men' unto them that they
might have relations with Them. They, only seeing men, not Angels.
They, wanting to force themselves in a carnal display of dominance
upon these 'men', as had been done unto themselves when they
were younger and weaker, as a cycle of bullying and cowardice.
19.6 Lot put himself between the men and the house, and shut the
door.
19.7 Lot urges them not to do wickedly there.
19.8 Lot offers them his two virginal daughters if they spare The Two.
19.8 Lot offered his daughter's honour's.
19.9 The men make ready to attack Lot and break the door.
19.10 The Two Angels brought Lot into the house and shut the door.
19.11 They Smote the men With Blindness, and still they tried to
find the door. So shall it also be In The End. G-d Shall Make Blind
those who would not see, And Condemn them To The Fire.
19.11 They Smote the men With Blindness, And Protected Lot's
household Thereby. So Also Shall G-d Protect His Children From
Harm.
19.12 They Told Lot To Bring Forth his family, To Be Spared, Out
of the place.
19.13 They Confirm That They Are Sent By G-d To Destroy this
place.
19.13 G-d's Will Be Done.
19.14 Lot urged his sons-In-Law to leave with him.
19.14 Lot's sons-In-Law were blind to the circumstance and truth of
their situation. They condemned Lot's married daughters with them
also.
19.15 The Angels Hastened Lot to take his family, and leave that
morning.
19.16 Lot lingered there.
19.16 G-d Showed Great Mercy toward Lot and his family. The
Angels Laid Hold on Lot and his family, And Brought them Outside
the city.
19.17 He Said, 'Escape For Thy Life, Look Not Back, Stay Out Of
All The Plain.' 'Escape To The Mountain,' He Warned Them, 'Lest
They Be Swept Away,'
19.17 In The End, those who linger on among such as these, will
suffer their fate as well.
19.18 Lot cannot make it to the mountain in time. Lot had not faith.
19.18-20 The Lord Hears Lot's Petition.
19.21 The Lord Grants Lot's Petition.
19.22-3 The Lord's Work, And Swift Justice, is delayed by Lot
beyond the sunrise.
19.23 The Lord Will Make An Example, of the wickedness of the
Canaanite, For All The World.
19.24 The Lord Caused Brimstone And Fire To Rain Upon Sodom
And Gomorrah From Heaven.
19.24-5 His Will Is Done. His Word Is Made Good. G-d Will No
Longer Destroy man By Flood, As His Covenant, But The Fire Is
Prepared Unto The End.
19.25 He Destroyed Those Cities, All The Plain, All The
Inhabitants, And That Which Grew Upon The Ground.
19.26 Lot's wife looked back and Was Destroyed.
19.26 The Word Of The Lord Is Truth.
19.27-8 Abraham got up early in the morning to witness The
Example The Lord Had Made.
19.29 G-d Sent Lot Out Of The Midst Of His Destruction, As A
Remembrance And Mercy Especially To Abraham.
19.30 Lot and his two daughters reached a cave in the mountains
to live independently.
19.30 His pride does not allow Lot to search out Abraham or Nahor
to inform them of his plight.
19.31 The eldest daughter of Lot expresses her concern to her
sister, that they both will die, unmarried and childless.
19.32 Survival causes the elder daughter to suggest incest by their
father, she should instead have allowed her father to find husbands
for them, they had family nearby. This, for lack of arranged
marriages for them.
19.33-5 The daughters cause Lot to drink wine and lay with them.
Lot's haste in leaving Sodom had not prevented him from taking his
wine with him. Lot chose to be drunken, and in front of his
daughters, and did not care that he lay with them because he did
lay with both of them individually on successive nights.
Who crieth: 'Woe'? Who: 'Alas'? Who hath contentions? Who hath
raving? Who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of
eyes? They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to try mixed
wine. Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth its
color in the cup, when it glideth down smoothly; At the last it biteth
like a serpent, and stingeth like a basilisk. Thine eyes shall behold
strange things, and thy heart shall utter confused things. Yea, thou
shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, or as he that
lieth upon the top of a mast. 'They have struck me, and I felt it not;
They have beaten me, and I knew it not; When shall I awake? I will
seek it yet again.'
19.36 Both daughters of Lot are with child.
19.36 Both daughters of Lot are with child by their father.
19.37-8 Both daughters bear sons who are fruitful. The first-born
called her son Moab, father of the Moabites. And the younger
called her son Ben-Ammi, father of the children of Ammon.
19.37-8 Both sons are cut off from the inheritance of Abraham or
Nahor.
20.1 Abraham travels again in the land, As The Lord Had Prescribed.
20.2 Abraham again identifies Sarah as his sister. Abimelech, king
of Gerar, sent and took Sarah. Abraham had not faith that G-d
Would Spare him, Or Perform His Word.
20.2 Abraham did not Tempt G-d With The Decision To Spare his
Life. His fear did not cause him to take up arms against his
brother, but to sacrifice of himself instead.
20.3 G-d Warns Abimelech In A Dream that he shall die for taking
Sarah, another man's wife. The Lord Warns those who sin in
ignorance, If They Will Receive Warning; those who will not Receive
Warning, Receive also Plagues.
20.4-5 The Lord Listens To Abimelech as he pleads his innocence.
20.5 Abraham and Sarah both did bear false witness against
Abimelech Before G-d.
20.6 The Lord Tells Abimelech That He Withheld him From Sinning
Against Him By Not Allowing Abimelech to touch Sarah.
20.7 The Lord Tells Abimelech that Abraham is a Prophet who will
pray for him if he releases Sarah, and if not, he and his family Will
Die.
20.8 Abimelech informs his servants what has happened, and they
are sore afraid. The Fear Of G-d Is In This Place.
20.9-10 Abimelech questions Abraham on why he has done this
thing. Abimelech turns away from sin.
20.11 Abraham tells Abimelech that he was sure that The Fear Of
G-d was not in this place, and they will slay him for Sarah. The
fear Was Not Of G-d, but of men.
20.11 Sarah Was Unharmed, Abraham is alive. G-d Had Caused
The Truth To Be Known.
20.12-3 Abraham informs Abimelech that Sarah is in fact his half-
sister, and that he instructed her, as a kindness to him, to say so.
20.12 Abraham had married his half-sister. Terah had taken more
than one wife.
20.14-6 Abimelech rewards Abraham with sheep, oxen, men and
maid-servants, and restores Sarah to him.
20.15 Abimelech allows Abraham to dwell anywhere on
Abimelech's lands that he pleases. The Lord's Covenant with
Abraham Is Established.
20.16 Abimelech tells Sarah he has given Abraham a thousand
pieces of silver as a tribute to her virtue before all men.
20.14-6 Abraham is bribed by Abimelech with sheep, oxen, men
and maid-servants, land rights, and silver. That women and men
are to be traded as sheep and oxen.
20.17-8 G-d Had Stricken All of Abimelech's house That They Not
Bear Children. G-d Was Prepared To Sacrifice All these people To
Fulfill His Covenant With Abraham.
20.17-8 Abraham prayed, and G-d Healed Abimelech and all his
house that they again bore children. G-d's Punishment Is Swift and
His Mercy Is Equally Swift. Abraham forgave Abimelech, and G-d
Also Forgave Abraham And Sarah.
21.1 The Lord Remembers His Word As He Had Spoken Unto
Abraham And Sarah.
21.2 Sarah Conceives, And Bears a son At The Time The Lord
Prescribed, Three Hundred, Ninety Two Years After Flood.
21.3-4 Abraham calls his son 'Isaac' As The Lord Said, and
performs circumcision.
21.a5-7 Sarah marvels over having borne Isaac in their old age, His
Word Is Carried Out. We Have Commanded man concerning his
parents. His mother carried him with weakness upon weakness;
nor until after two years is he weaned. Be Grateful To Me, And To
thy parents. Unto Me Shall All Come. Moreover, We Have
Enjoined On man to show kindness to his parents.
21.5-7 With pain his mother beareth him; with pain she bringeth
him forth: and his bearing, and his weaning is thirty months.
21.b5-7 Until when he attaineth his strength, and attaineth to forty
years, he saith, 'O my Lord! Stir me Up To Be Grateful For Thy
Favours, Wherewith Thou Hast Favoured me and my parents, and
to do good works Which Shall Please Thee: And Prosper me In My
Offspring: for To Thee Am I Turned, and am Resigned To Thy Will.'
11.23 Serug Shem dies, three hundred, ninety three years After
Flood.
21.8 Isaac is weaned; Abraham makes a great feast that day.
21.a9 Ishmael, now a young man of sixteen years, makes sport of
Isaac, yet an infant, but also his brother. His actions do not honour
his father or his mother. His actions accuse them Unto G-d of
failure as parents.
Where there is no Fear Of G-d instilled, there is
no Fear Of A Day Of Retribution.
21.9 Sarah sees Ishmael making sport of Isaac.
21.b9 Hagar does not see Ishmael making sport of Isaac.
21.10 Sarah demands justice from Abraham.
21.10 Sarah demands Abraham cast out Hagar and Ishmael.
Removing the result of bad parental guidance in the past, only
eliminates access to proper guidance in the future.
Where there is no Love Of Mercy,
there is no hope for A Day Of Mercy.
21.a11 Abraham finds Sarah's demands to be very grievous to him.
21.a11 But he who saith to his parents, 'Fie on you both! promise
ye me that I Shall Be Taken Forth Alive, when whole generations
have already passed away before me?'
21.b11 But they both will Implore The Help Of G-d, and say, 'Alas
for thee! Believe: For The Promise Of G-d Is True.'
21.b11 But he saith, 'It is no more than a fable of the ancients.'
21.12 The Lord Tells Abraham Not To Be Distressed, And To Do So;
Isaac Is To Be Abraham's Name-sake. Ishmael may yet learn
to regret his bad actions and Be Turned To The Lord. So also shall
a man leave his father and his mother and cleave unto his wife,
that what he learned not from father or mother, he may yet learn
from son or daughter.
21.12 The Lord Chose Isaac Over Ishmael from before Isaac was
born, Not Because He Knew Isaac would be so much better than
Ishmael, But Because He Knew Ishmael was worse. He Knew The
Tree Could Produce Fruit Better Suited To His Purpose.
21.13 G-d Tells Abraham He Will Not Forget Ishmael, But Will Also
Make Ishmael A Great Nation For Abraham's Sake. G-d Will Yet
Turn The Heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the
children to the fathers.
21.14 Abraham took bread and a bottle of water and gave these to
Hagar.
21.14 Abraham sent Hagar and Ishmael away and they strayed in
the wilderness of Beer-Sheba. With only one wife, this would not
be done.
21.15 Hagar's water was gone.
21.15 The wilderness provided shade for Ishmael. Water must also
be near.
21.16 Hagar was grieved to not want to see what she believed the
death of Ishmael.
21.16 Hagar counted not on G-d's Promise to her.
21.17 G-d Heard Ishmael's voice, and The Angel Of The Lord told
her to have faith.
21.18 The Angel Of G-d reminds Hagar of His Promise to her.
21.18 Hagar needed reminding of G-d's Word.
21.19 G-d Restores her Lost Sight, she sees a well of water and is
restored.
21.20 Ishmael dwelt in the wilderness and became an archer.
21.20 G-d Was With Ishmael as he grew.
21.21 Hagar took a wife for Ishmael out of Egypt, by her family there.
She chose not by appearance, nor by wealth, but from those she
knew to be of good moral character and parenting. Ishmael obeyed
his mother in her wisdom.
21.22 Abimelech visits Abraham, accompanied by Phicol, captain
of his host. This is not a social visit.
21.22 Abimelech and Phicol, captain of his host, remark to
Abraham that G-d Is With Abraham in all he does. The Fear Of The
Lord Is Upon Abimelech, By Abraham.
21.23 Abimelech asks Abraham to swear to him that he will not
deal falsely with him or his family, and will treat them, and the land
he sojourned, with the same kindness that he has shown him.
21.23 Abimelech finds it necessary to cause Abraham to swear to
him before Phicol, captain of his host, that he will not deal falsely
with him or his family, and will treat them, and the land, with
reciprocal kindness.
21.24 Abraham swears his oath to Abimelech.
21.24 Abraham needs to swear such an oath to Abimelech.
21.25 Abraham reproved Abimelech over a well of water.
21.25 Abraham reproved Abimelech over a well of water which
Abimelech's servants had violently taken away. That one man
should deny water to another.
21.26 Abimelech did not know of it until that day, and Abraham had
not mentioned it previously. Abimelech does not offer the return of
the well to Abraham.
21.26 Abimelech is now informed of it, he was not obligated to
return the well, because he believed it was himself who gave
Abraham the land in the first place; but It Was G-d Who Gave
Abraham the land, and the water also. G-d Had Reproved Abraham
over this well of water on behalf of Hagar and Ishmael, By Sending
Servants To Remove It from Abraham's possession. By this well
had Hagar and Ishmael survived.
21.27 Abraham takes sheep and oxen, and gave of these to
Abimelech, and they make a covenant together.
21.28-30 Abraham gives Abimelech seven ewe-lambs as proof that
he digged this new well.
21.28-30 Abraham needed to buy proof that he digged this well.
21.31 Abimelech now also swears to Abraham on the validity of
his well.
21.32 Covenant is made, all go home in peace.
21.33 Abraham plants tamarisk-tree in Beer-Sheba, and calls on
The Name Of The Lord, The Everlasting G-d.
21.34 Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days
in peace.
22.1 G-d Decides To Prove Abraham.
22.1 Abraham Gave G-d Cause To Prove him by account of
Ishmael.
22.2 G-d Commands Abraham To Sacrifice Isaac As A Burnt-
Offering.
22.2 G-d Will Determine the fruit, By Checking The Soundness of
the tree. To sacrifice the first-born, is to Have Faith That G-d Will
Provide a second-born.
22.3-6 Abraham prepares To Enact G-d's Word.
22.7 Isaac sought understanding of The Task from his father.
22.8 Abraham answered Isaac truthfully, and in faith that The Lord
Will Provide.
22.8 Abraham's truth was incomplete as was known to him.
22.9-10 Abraham continues preparations To Enact G-d's Word. If
Abraham was unwilling to sacrifice his beloved son For G-d, G-d
Would Be Unwilling To Sacrifice His Beloved Son for Abraham.
22.11-2 The Angel Of The Lord Proclaims Abraham's Willingness
To Perform The Lord's Word, And Rewards him By Sparing Isaac.
22.13 The Lord Provided Abraham A Sacrifice instead of Isaac. A
Token That He Would Provide The Sacrifice To Come, for all men.
22.13 A life is sacrificed.
22.14 Abraham names that place In Honour Of The Lord.
22.15-8 The Lord Spoke Again To Abraham, For He Had Decided
To Provide The Sacrifice A Second Time, for Abraham's sake, Then
Swears Oath By Himself That He Will Bless Greatly Abraham and
his seed, And Will Do unto them All The Prophesy Noah Set Forth.
22.15-8 Just as they Shall Receive Double For their Righteousness,
So Also Shall they Receive Of The Lord's Hand, Double For All
their Sins.
22.19 Abraham returns home to Beer-Sheba with Isaac.
22.20-2 Abraham learns of the birth of his brother Nahor's eight
children by Milcah.
22.23 Nahor's child Bethuel, begot Rebekah, and Laban afterward.
22.24 Nahor was unfaithful to Milcah, by Reumah.
22.24 Nahor's concubine, Reumah bore also four.
11.32 Terah dies in Haran four hundred, twenty seven years After
Flood.
23.1 Sarah lived a hundred, twenty seven years.
23.2 Sarah dies in Hebron, four hundred, twenty nine years After
Flood. Abraham mourns and weeps for her.
23.3-4 Abraham rose up from before his dead and sought to
purchase a burying-place among the children of Heth.
23.5-6 The children of Heth praise Abraham, and offer him any of
their sepulchres.
23.7 Abraham rose up and bowed down to the children of Heth for
their offer and their praise.
23.8-9 Abraham asks the children of Heth to speak on his behalf to
Ephron, son of Zohar, to allow him to buy his property for full price.
23.10-1 Ephron, being present, offers the land to Abraham as a gift.
23.12 Abraham bows again before all.
23.13 Abraham repeats his offer to purchase the land.
23.14-5 Ephron sets a monetary value for the land, and also tells
Abraham that this should not be a point of contention between the
two men.
23.16 Abraham payed the asking price for the land in front of the
witnesses.
23.17-20 The property is known to belong to Abraham now, and he
buried Sarah there in Hebron.
24.1 Abraham lived a very long life and The Lord Blessed him In All
Things.
23.2 Abraham is affected by Sarah's death in a positive way, as
his thoughts now shift to helping Isaac.
24.2 Abraham has servants of all ages.
24.2-4 Abraham commanded his servant to swear by G-d that he
will take a wife for Isaac of Abraham's own people.
24.3-4 Abraham has his servant swear he will not allow Isaac a
Canaanite wife. To maintain racial purity, Isaac may wed his own
near kin.
24.5 The servant asks Abraham if he may bring Isaac back to the
land he came from.
24.6 Abraham cautions his servant not to do so.
24.7 Abraham Trusts The Lord To Send His Angel before his
servant, To Assist him.
24.8 Abraham clears his servant of his oath if the woman will not
return with him; and he again cautions him not to bring Isaac there.
24.9 The servant swore oath to Abraham on this matter.
24.10 The servant follows Abrahams instructions and went into the
city of Nahor. Nahor is now a city in Nahor Shem's name, by the
honour and decree of its people, for valiant service in the battles at
Babel.
24.10 Too many good men have been killed for the cause of just
and unjust wars alike.
24.11 The servant gave the camels water at evening, when the
women drew water.
24.12 The servant prays that G-d Will Speed his mission, And
Show Kindness to his master Abraham Thereby. The Faith In The
G-d that Abraham knew, had become The Faith of his servant also,
not by command, but from the heart. This could only be due to the
love and mercy that Abraham had shown him.
24.12 Where Abraham had greatly succeeded with his servant, the
tragedy that he had also greatly failed with his own son, Ishmael.
24.13-4 The servant Proposed To The Lord A Situation, if it were to
occur, To Indicate that the servant has found The Way.
24.15-20 Rebekah came out and Set Forth The Situation that the
servant Proposed To The Lord.
24.21 The servant silently considers whether his Conditions Have
Been Met.
24.22 The servant gave her a gold ring and two gold bracelets, after
due consideration.
24.23 The servant asks of her family, and of lodging.
24.24 Rebekah identifies herself by lineage to Abraham.
24.25 Rebekah invites him to lodge with them.
24.26-7 The servant Bows And Prays Before The Lord, in
Rebekah's presence. The servant Gives Thanks To G-d, Both For
His Mercy And Truth Towards Abraham, And For His Guidance to
his journey having been successful.
24.28 The damsel ran to her mother's house and told them these
words.
24.29 Laban saw the gold, and heard the recitation by his sister, of
the man's prayer. Laban runs to meet the servant.
24.29-31 Rebekah's brother Laban meets the servant to invite him to
stay with them, and addressing him as 'Thou, Blessed Of The Lord',
clears the house for him, and makes room for the camels.
24.32 The servant came into the house, and Laban provided for the
men and the camels.
24.33 Food was set before the man but he spoke saying he would
not eat until he had told his errand; and he was given leave to speak.
24. 34-48 Abraham's servant relates his experience thus far, and
his, and Abraham's confidence, that The Lord Will Make his way To
Prosper; and how It Had Indeed Been Done.
24.49 The servant asks for their decision.
24.50-1 Laban, and their father Bethuel, will not speak good or bad
regarding What Proceeds From G-d. They advise him to do As The
Lord Had Spoken.
24.52 The servant then Bowed Down to the Earth Unto G-d.
24.53 The servant then gave silver, gold, jewels, and raiment to
Laban and Rebekah; and precious things to their mother.
24.53 Gold, silver, and gems come at a price, the burden of which,
falls upon the poor.
24. 54 They then ate and drank, and stayed the night there. In the
morning, the servant asked leave to go.
24.55 Laban, and their mother, sought to delay Rebekah's leaving.
24.56 The servant asked not to be delayed, as The Lord Had
Prospered The Way.
24.57 They will make it Rebekah's decision.
24.58 Rebekah agrees to go.
24.59 They were given leave to go, along with Rebekah and her
nurse.
24.60 Her family then blessed Rebekah.
24.61 The servant took Rebekah, and her damsels, by the camels,
homeward.
24.62 Isaac dwelt in the south, near to Ishmael, and had returned to
the home of his father by way of Beer-Lahai-Roi.
24.63 Isaac did meditate in the field at eventide, when he observed
camels coming.
24.64-5 Rebekah did see Isaac, and alighted from her camel.
Asking the servant, she was informed, it was his master. In
modesty, she took her veil and covered herself.
24.66 The servant reported to Isaac the previous events.
24.67 Isaac gave her his mother's tent. He married her in the year
four hundred, thirty two After Flood, loved her, and was comforted
for his mother whom he loved.
24.67 Isaac's mother had spoiled him, and kept him to herself, an
unmarried forty year old.
25.1 Abraham took another wife, Keturah, but G-d Had Promised
Abraham that Isaac is to be his namesake. Abraham would sire
unwanted children, beyond Ishmael.
25.1 G-d Did Proclaim Abraham To Be 'The Father Of Many
Nations', and Abraham's Wedding Vows ended with Sarah's
death, so Keturah's Wedding Was Lawful. G-d Found A Way To
Punish Abraham Other Than By Making Sarah Barren. G-d Had Not
Allowed Sarah Infertility, Because Of His Covenant With Abraham.
25.2 Keturah was Cushite, an interracial Marriage thereby.
Abraham had forbidden his servant from bringing Isaac a Canaanite
wife, but had himself now taken an Ethiopian wife.
25.2 Keturah bears six children.
25.3-4 The children bear Abraham grandchildren.
25.5 Abraham gave all he had to Isaac, as pertaining to Abraham's
love, and Isaac's worthiness.
25.5 Abraham gave all he had to Isaac, to the detriment of his other
children.
25.6 Abraham sent all his children away from Isaac and himself,
eastward into the east country. Just As Adam, And Later, Cain
Had Been Driven.
25.6 Abraham gave gifts to all his other children, sending them
away, for Isaac's protection.
25.19-20 Abraham begot Isaac who took Rebekah to be his wife.
25.20 Isaac was forty years old when he Married Rebekah, four
hundred, thirty two years After Flood.
11.13 Arpachshad Shem dies four hundred, forty years After Flood.
25.21 Rebekah was barren. The Lord Had Withheld Rebekah From
Bearing To See If Isaac Would Turn To Him. The Lord Had Waited
Twenty Years For Isaac To Turn To Him, And ask for His Mercy.
25.21 Isaac Entreated The Lord For Rebekah. He saith, 'O my Lord!
Stir me Up To Be Grateful For Thy Favours, Wherewith Thou Hast
Favoured me and my parents, and to do good works Which Shall
Please Thee: And Prosper me In My Offspring: for To Thee Am I
Turned, and am Resigned To Thy Will.' And The Lord Allowed It,
And Rebekah Conceived.
25.22 The children struggled together within Rebekah.
25.22 Rebekah carried twins, and she Inquired Of The Lord.
25.23 The Lord Answered Rebekah. He Told her That Two Nations
Are Within her. The Depth Of His Knowledge Made Plain In His
Answer to her.
25.23 Two Peoples Shall Be Separated, one stronger than the
other, and the elder shall serve the younger;
25.24 The birth of Rebekah's twins. The Fulfillment Of His Word
Regarding The Birth Of Twins By Rebekah.
25.25 Isaac's prayers were not in vain; Esau is first-born, the year
four hundred, fifty two After Flood.
25.26 Isaac's prayers were not in vain; Jacob is born, the year
four hundred, fifty two After Flood. The Lord Had Doubled His
Blessing Unto Isaac because Isaac Had Turned To Him.
25.26 Jacob's hand had hold on Esau's heel.
25.26 Esau's dominion shall end, and Jacob's shall begin.
25.7 Abraham lived a hundred and seventy five years, one hundred
of which were in Canaan. His long life helped in part by the honour
paid to him by his children, and his Faith In G-d.
25.8 Abraham expired and died, four hundred, sixty seven years
After Flood.
25.8 Abraham lived to a good old age, full of years, and was
gathered unto his people.
25.9-10 Isaac and Ishmael buried Abraham next to Sarah. Love did
not end with the death of Abraham.
25.9-10 Isaac and Ishmael had to bury Abraham. Ishmael also had
the burden of burying Abraham apart from Hagar. Hatred did not
end with the death of Abraham.
25.11 Prior to Abraham's death, G-d Had Only Blessed Isaac
Through Abraham.
25.11 After the death of Abraham, G-d Blessed Isaac; and Isaac
dwelt by Beer-Lahai-Roi, near to Ishmael, 'In the face of his brethren.'
25.27 Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a
tent dweller.
They who swallow down usury, shall arise in The Resurrection,
only as he ariseth whom Satan hath infected by his touch. This, for
that they say, 'Selling is only the like of usury.' And yet, G-d Hath
Allowed selling, And Forbidden usury. So also, they who swallow
down prey, shall arise in The Resurrection, only as he ariseth
whom Satan hath infected by his touch. This, for that they say,
'Hunting is only the like of husbandry; in order to kill the predators
for safety, and cull the herds for food.' And yet, G-d Had Respect
unto Abel and to his Offering; But unto Cain and to his Offering, He
Had Not Respect. And Cain was a tiller of the ground. How Much
More So Shall G-d Judge For those who would make prey of His
Beasts That He Provided as a help-meet for man, whether of
predator or of prey themselves. Are they not predators because of
man.
25.27 Jacob was a quiet shepherd and husbandman. Even a man
living among tents, is more stable than a man living in a field.
25.28 Rebekah loved Jacob.
25.28 Isaac loved Esau for the venison he provided. This house was
divided.
25.29 Jacob sod pottage. Esau came in from the field.
25.29 Esau was faint. Meat does not store as grain does.
25.30 Esau said to Jacob, 'Let me swallow some of your red
pottage for I am faint.'
25.30 Therefore, was his name called Edom Red as an insult.
25.31 Jacob refused him the pottage, except in exchange for his
birthright.
25.31 G-d Allowed Jacob to deny his brother food for Esau's
birthright for the same reason The Lord Chose Isaac over Ishmael,
Jacob was better suited for The Lord's Purpose. The Lord Will Not
Forget Esau, But Will Also Make him A Great Nation for Abraham's
sake.
25.32 Esau explains to Jacob that he is at the point of death, and
what advantage is a birthright to the dead.
25.32 Isaac and Rebekah are clearly absent, both physically, and
also morally through their teachings to Jacob. 'His hand upon the
heel' was for taking, not giving. Esau had no Faith That The Lord
Would Sustain him For His Purposes, and was willing to barter His
Kingdom for a bowl of lentils.
25.33 Jacob insists Esau swear first or die. Esau swears to Jacob.
The birthright may also have been less important to Esau, as
neither parent loved him.
25.33 Jacob may not have believed Esau was at the point of death,
but Esau clearly did, as his oath indicated.
25.34 Jacob had sod lentils for himself, and had prepared only
enough as he could consume. Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage,
and he did eat and drink. Esau's Life Is Saved.
25.34 Esau rose up, and went his way, apart from his brother, and
so despised his birthright. Jacob went without food until he could
prepare more. G-d Would Have Ended Esau's Life in order To
Secure The Birthright For Jacob.
11.15 Shelah Shem dies, four hundred, seventy years After Flood.
26.1 There was a famine in the land, because of Jacob's bartering.
26.1 The Lord Enacts A Punishment for what was done to Esau,
And To Shake Out And Empty the land of the Canaanite.
Bethuel had used the wealth he received by Abraham's servant,
and moved his family to Haran, to avoid the famine and claim the
inheritance of Terah.
26.2 The Lord Appeared To Isaac. The Lord Warned Isaac Not To
Go To Egypt.
26.3-5 The Lord Tells Isaac To Sojourn In This Land And He Will
Be With him, And Bless him, And Establish The Oath He Swore
Unto Abraham, because Abraham Did Hearken Unto Him. The
Judgment On All The Nations Shall Be For The Righteousness
Of Abraham, Isaac, And Jacob, And Not Only For their own sins.
26.4 Had All The Nations Been Judged by their own sins, None
Would Survive.
26.6 Isaac dwelt in Gerar, As The Lord Had Instructed.
26.7 Isaac and Rebekah deceive the men of Gerar saying,
'Rebekah is his sister.' Isaac had not Faith That G-d Would Spare
him Or Perform His Word. G-d's Kingdom On Earth Is Very Distant.
Isaac believes the men of Gerar are heathen and have not The Fear
Of G-d To Govern their Actions.
26.7 Isaac had the truth of Abraham, 'That Sarah was his half-
sister'. Rebekah was Isaac's half-sister also. There is validity to
Isaac's concern regarding the men of Gerar. Isaac, like Abraham,
Did Not Tempt The Lord With The Decision To Spare his Life. His
fear did not cause him to take up arms against his brother, but to
sacrifice of himself instead.
26.8 Abimelech caught Isaac and Rebekah in their deceit.
26.9 Abimelech confronts Isaac. Isaac cites 'Fear for himself,' as
the reason.
26.9 A fear, Not Of The Lord, caused Isaac and Rebekah to lie.
26.10 Abimelech rebukes Isaac for it. The Fear Of The Lord Remains
in this place.
26.11 Abimelech extends his protection to Isaac and Rebekah.
26.12 Isaac sowed in the land and Found A Hundred Fold in that
year; And The Lord Blessed him.
26.13-4 Isaac Became Very Great There, by flocks, herds, and a
great household.
26.14 The Philistines envied Isaac greatly also.
26.15 The Philistines stopped up, and filled all the wells Abraham's
servants had dug.
26.15 Abraham had prior claim to the land, the proof of which, is the
wells.
26.16 Abimelech told Isaac to leave, because of the disparity of
wealth.
26.17 Isaac was forced to depart to the valley of Gerar.
26.18 The Philistines had stopped Abraham's wells, after his death.
26.18 Isaac dug again the wells of his father, and renamed them as
before.
26.19 Isaac's servants digged in the valley and found living water.
26.19 The inherent injustice of servitude.
26.20 Strife between herdsman over water; that any man should
deny water to another. Isaac renames the well, 'Contention'.
26.21 Isaac's servants dug again a well.
26.21 Strife again between herdsman. Isaac renames the well
'Enmity'.
26.22 Another well was dug, but without strife. Isaac renames it
'Room'. Isaac finds in this, Confirmation That The Lord Has Made
Room for him, And Will Continue To Make him Fruitful there.
26.21-2 Servitude.
26.23 Isaac went to Beer-Sheba to be closer to his brother Ishmael.
26.23-4 The actions of the Philistines in the valley of Gerar, in the
stopping of the wells, and the strife by the herdsman there,
hastened his return to Beer-Sheba.
26.24 In Beer-Sheba, The Lord Confirmed His Blessing On Isaac,
For Abraham's Sake. The righteous are an affront to the wicked,
they cause them to 'see' the darkness of their own hearts, the
darkness from which, upon their deaths, they shall not escape.
26.25 Isaac builded an altar there, and Called Upon The Name Of
The Lord. He made his tent there, and his servants dug a well.
26.25 Servitude by men, sacrifice by beast.
26.26 Abimelech, his friend Ahuzzath, and Phicol, captain of the
guard, come to Isaac from Gerar.
26.27 Isaac charges them with hatred of him and sending him
away, before hearing the reason for their visit.
26.28-9 Abimelech and his associates knew they treated Isaac
badly, and feared the possible wrath of this wealthy man, whose
Prayers To Only One G-d Are Heard.
26.28-9 They told Isaac they observed his Favour Of The Lord. They
said they sent him away in peace, and had done only good towards
him. They desired a covenant between them that he do them no
harm. Isaac no longer had a fear of Abimelech, just as with
Abraham. The Fear Of The Lord That Was Upon Abimelech by
Abraham, Is Again Upon Abimelech by Isaac.
26.30-1 Isaac made them a feast, and they pledged an oath, and
left in peace.
26.32-3 The well that Isaac's servants digged, found water the
same day. Isaac called it 'Shibah', the name remains, 'Beer-Sheba'.
26.34 Four hundred, ninety two years After Flood, Esau gets
married at age forty.
26.3-5 Esau marries two Hittite women who are distressing to
Isaac and Rebekah by racial prejudice. He had waited forty years
for their blessing.
11.11 Shem Noah dies, five hundred, two years After Flood. The
sins of the sons, shorten the lives of the fathers; while the sins of
the fathers, shorten the lives of the sons.
27.a1 Isaac and Abraham had both lived to an old age.
27.1 Isaac's Sight Was Made Dim from age, he could not see.
27b.1 While he was sighted, he would not see his son Jacob for the
words of his mouth and his heart, but by the stature of Esau. The
Lord Made him Blind, To Cause him To 'See'.
27.2-4 Isaac wants to give Esau his final blessing.
27.2-4 Isaac does not want to give Jacob any blessing at all. Esau
must hunt in the field to prepare game, as a condition for his
father's last blessing. The blessing is on the meal, not the son.
There are none so blind as those who will not see.
27.5 Rebekah heard Isaac speak to Esau.
27.5 Esau follows his father's request.
27.6-7 Rebekah tells what she has heard to Jacob.
27.a8-10 Rebekah orders Jacob to impersonate his brother. Though
she was capable of making savory food which Isaac loved, Rebekah
left that task to Esau. She had married (after she and her family
were plied with riches) a man she knew not, nor had she seen. She
never considered that she might have to attend to any
responsibilities.
27.8-10 Isaac was near of kin to Nahor, and Rebekah and her family
had also put their trust in the faith of Abraham, by his servant,
because it was clear to all that his faith was strong. Isaac's
blessing has value, the price of his blessing will be paid.
27.b8-10 It is a pollution upon Isaac to accept venison in place of
Consecrated beasts, in exchange for his blessing.
27.11-2 Jacob finds weak points in his mother's scheme, and
voices his concern that he will get caught in these lies.
27.13 Rebekah tells Jacob that she will take the blame if he is
caught, and she repeats her instructions. Rebekah is unconcerned
with trouble between herself and her husband.
27.14 Jacob is again unconcerned with Isaac's will, or mercy due to
Esau, but The Word Of The Lord Only. Jacob follows his mother's
instructions. Rebekah cooks for Isaac A Proper Heave-Offering, of
two good kids of the goats, Worthy Of His Blessing, and worthy of
his, Isaac's blessing. Though Jacob came in deceit, he brought
forth good works, and guided his father aright, and were it blind
leading the blind, both had fallen into the ditch.
27.15-7 Rebekah disguises Jacob in order to trick his father, an old
blind man. She also gave him the food she had prepared, that he
pass it off as his own labours for his father.
27.15-7 Jacob had raised the kids for his father's meal, and it was
a blessing and a mercy to his herd, and To G-d that he raised them;
and a blessing and an honour to his father and mother as well.
27.a18-9 Jacob approaches his father with lies and deceit.
27.a18-9 Isaac had also used lies and deceit towards Abimelech.
As he has given, so shall he receive.
27.b18-9 So also in time to come, shall many come In The Name
Of The Lord with lies and deceit, but not to bless and to honour.
27.b18-9 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's
clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them
by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Even so, every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit,
neither, a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth
not forth good fruit, is hewn down and cast into the fire. Wherefore,
by their fruits ye shall know them.
27.20 Isaac finds it suspicious that Esau could return so soon.
27.20 Jacob Invokes The Name Of The Lord in his lie to his father.
And since The Lord Having Given Esau Such 'Good Speed', Must
Be Indicating Also That Isaac Die Soon, hence the 'Good Speed'.
27.21-2 Jacob is unaccustomed to lying, and not very convincing.
Isaac finds the voice suspicious, and felt him.
27.21-2 And the hands that Isaac touched, felt like Esau's.
27.23 The hands felt like Esau's hands, so Isaac blessed Jacob
instead.
27.23 Isaac blessed Jacob.
27.24 Still suspicious, Isaac again asks if it is Esau there.
27.24 Jacob lies directly to his father's face.
27.25 Isaac commanded, and Jacob brought him food and drink.
27.25 Isaac did not receive the meal he had requested.
27.26-7 Still suspicious, Isaac commanded his son to kiss him.
The smell of his son was to him as The Smell Of A Field The Lord
Had Blessed.
27.26-7 The smell of Esau's clothes convinced Isaac, and he
blessed Jacob by the smell, which was the proof.
27.28-9 Isaac blessed his son greatly. G-d Had Allowed Isaac's
Blindness, That Jacob Receive The Blessing of his father instead
of Esau, And The Harshness Of The Blessing Placed On Esau
instead of Jacob. G-d Saw What Isaac Would Not.
27.28-9 The hairy hand and the smell of his son Esau were the
attributes of importance to Isaac, not the heart, and the words,
which are the soul of Jacob. There was a harshness towards Jacob
by his father which would not exist if Isaac Had 'Seen' What The
Lord Wanted him to. Esau received the curse for the sins of his
father. Both sons were entitled to receive his blessing. That there
be harshness of a father to his son, without good cause. Just as
Esau had sold his birthright for a meal, Isaac had given away his
blessing for a meal.
27.30-1 Esau returns successful from his efforts but too late to
receive the blessing, and just in time to receive the curse.
27.30-1 Esau's "honest" work took only slightly longer to produce
than Rebekah and Jacob's team effort.
27.32 Isaac asks who it is that is before him, and Esau answers
truthfully.
27.33 Isaac trembled very exceedingly at the truth. He Also Was
Judged by this blessing, And It Was Reversed.
27.33 Who it is that has received Isaac's blessing, it shall not be
revoked by Isaac.
27.34 Esau cried with an exceedingly great and bitter cry.
27.34 Esau asks also for Isaac's blessing.
27.35 Isaac tells Esau the truth about Jacob receiving the blessing
he had intended for Esau.
27.35 The truth was in fact that Jacob came with guile and took it;
because the truth was also not enough for him to receive it in the
first place, though he was not undeserving of it.
27.36 Esau bemoans his loss of birthright and blessing both.
27.36 Esau asks again for somewhat of a blessing from his father.
27.37 Isaac is at a loss to find something to bless his son with; he
should not have given all to one son, and naught to the other.
27.37 Isaac replies truthfully that he has already given everything he
considered of value to Jacob.
27.38 Esau lifted up his voice and wept.
27.38 Esau asks his father if there is not even one blessing left.
27.39-40 Isaac blessed Esau that he may live also in the fat
places of the Earth, and also of the dew of Heaven. It shall come
to pass that Esau shall break loose, and end his servitude.
27.39-40 Esau shall live by the sword, and serve his brother.
27.41 Esau decides to follow the path of Cain, because of his
hatred.
27.42 G-d Made Known To Rebekah the words of Esau's heart, and
she informed Jacob.
27.42 Jacob knows of a certainty how much his brother now hates
him.
27.43-5 Jacob cannot remain there for the death of his father, or for
any other useful purpose.
27.43-5 Rebekah informs Jacob that he is to visit with Laban in
Haran, until things return peaceful again, and she can retrieve him.
27.46 Rebekah convinces Isaac that Jacob should leave, which she
does, in the interest of preserving his life.
27.46 Rebekah uses the pretext that the women here are
unsuitable, therefore Jacob should leave. She has her racial
prejudice to back her up. She had not Arranged a Marriage
for Esau.
28.1-2 Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and told him not to
marry a Canaanite woman, but instead to marry one of Laban's
daughters. After Rebekah left Nahor, the families kept in contact
with each other to know that Laban had daughters.
28.1 It had to take The Lord's Rebuke, for Isaac to bless Jacob in
his own right.
28.2 Isaac instructed Jacob to leave for Haran, even though
Isaac was not to leave Canaan himself, not even for a wife,
similarly Jacob also.
28.2 Isaac does not object, under the circumstance, for Jacob to
leave.
28.3-4 Isaac gave Jacob his hope that G-d Would Also Bless him,
Make Fruitful, And Multiply him, And That Jacob Receive The
Blessing G-d Promised To Abraham.
28.5 Isaac sent away Jacob. Thus it is written, 'So shall a man
leave his father and his mother'.
28.5 Jacob not likely to see father or mother again. There was
division between Isaac and Rebekah, by Esau and Jacob. Jacob
only was sent away, not Esau. Of the great wealth of Abraham and
Isaac, Jacob was sent away empty, like Hagar and Ishmael.
28.6-9 Esau was present when Isaac blessed Jacob and sent him
away, and learned how his parents felt about Canaanite women
such as he had married, so he married also Ishmael's daughter,
and conquered the sinful thoughts he felt towards Jacob.
36.20-1 The Lord Had Made Seir, the mountain land of Edom, Fruitful.
36.22-3 The Lord Also Allowed Seir's children Fruitfulness.
36.24 Zibeon, a son of Seir, raised a son which tended his father's
herd, and he, The Lord Rewarded By Allowing him To Find the hot
springs in the wilderness.
36.25 The Lord Blessed the son that tended his father's herd, with
children.
36.26-30 The Lord Allowed Seir's other children To Be Fruitful.
36. 31-4 Kings then reigned in Edom from different cities.
36.35 Murderers also had ruled as kings.
36.36-9 Kings continued to reign in Edom from different cities.
36.1-5 Esau had taken three wives.
36.1-5 Esau had sons born to him by his wives.
36.a9-12 The Lord Also Blessed Esau With Many Generations of
children.
36.12 Timna, the daughter of Seir, bore Amalek to Esau's son,
Eliphaz, outside of Wedlock, and outside of his Marriage.
36.b9-12 Eliphaz had other son's by Lawful Marriage.
36.13-9 The Lord Allowed Esau's children Fruitfulness, For His
Promise to Abraham and Isaac.
36.40-3 Esau is dispersed within Seir.
36.40-3 Esau had it's chiefs combined with Seir's chiefs in Edom
peacefully.
28.10-1 Jacob left Beer-Sheba for Haran, stopping along the way to
spend the night.
28.12 Jacob dreamed that night, A Ladder To Heaven With Angels
Ascending And Descending On It. They Do The Lord's Bidding, never
venturing to the left hand or to the right, Between Heaven And Earth.
28.13-4 And Behold, The Lord Stood Beside Jacob, And Promised
him The Same Blessings That He Promised To Abraham. And the
nations shall bear also the righteousness of them, rather than only
their own sins.
Hear, O Israel:
The Lord thy G-d,
The Lord Is One;
And I Have:
Looked And Heard,
Wrestled And Judged,
Hired And Brought Fortune,
Dwelled With And Made Happy,
Joined And Added To The Praise
Of The Son Of The Right Hand, Israel;
And I Will Betroth thee Unto Me Forever;
Yea, I Will Betroth thee Unto Me In Righteousness,
And In Justice, And In Lovingkindness, And In Compassion,
And I Will Betroth thee Unto Me In Faithfulness, And thou shalt know The Lord;
And thou shalt love The Lord thy G-d with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might;
For Then Will I Turn To The Peoples, A Pure Language, That they may all call Upon The Name
Of The Lord, to serve Him with one consent. And These Words, Which I Command thee
This Day, Shall Be Upon thy heart; and thou Shalt Teach Them diligently unto thy children;
and Shalt Talk Of Them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way,
and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up; And thou Shalt Bind Them For A Sign
upon thy hand; and They Shall Be For Frontlets between thine eyes;
And thou Shalt Write Them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates.
Praise be to G-d, Our Father,
Lord Of The Worlds which art in Heaven;
The Compassionate, The Merciful, Hallowed Be Thy Name;
King On The Day Of Reckoning;
Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done, In Earth As In Heaven;
Thee only do we worship, and To Thee do we cry For Help;
Please Give us this day our Daily Bread;
And Guide Thou us On The Straight Path,
The Path of those to whom Thou Hast Been Gracious;
And Forgive us our Debts, as we forgive our debtors;
with whom Thou Art Not Angry, and who go not astray;
And Lead us Not Into Temptation,
But Deliver us From Evil In The Name Of G-d;
For Thine Is The Kingdom;
The Compassion And The Power;
The Mercy And The Glory;
Forever.
Amen.
I did Strive with G-d;
I am Christian toward men;
I will be Submissive To G-d;
And I will betroth Thee unto me forever;
Yea, I will betroth Thee unto me in righteousness,
and in justice, and in lovingkindness, and in compassion,
and I will betroth Thee unto me in faithfulness; and I shall know The Lord.
