How I observe the feasts of Yahuah as a MEMORIAL?

National Israel vs Israel of Alahim: ‘LETTER vs SPIRIT’, ‘Carnal ordinance vs Reformation’
Le 23:4 ¶ These are the feasts of the YAHUAH, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.

After every feast we see Alahim telling Israel that they should observe the feast in their generation by an ordinance forever

Ex 12:17 And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance forever.

Writer of Hebrew tells us that the carnal ordinances stood as a shadow and was part of the physical but Messiah is the high priest of a greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, not of this building.

Heb 9:10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation. 11 But Messiah being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;

How I observe the feasts of Israel perpetually as a MEMORIAL?

Paul rebuked the Galatians church for observing carnal ordinances and said that they had turned to the weak and beggarly elements.

Ga 4:9 But now, after that ye have known Alahim, or rather are known of Alahim, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.

1)  Passover & 2 ) Unleavened bread:

       Ex 12:11 And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the YAHUAH'S passover.

      Ex 12:8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.

1Co 5:7 ¶ Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Messiah our passover is sacrificed for us:

Messiah is our Passover sacrificed for us, by my faith in him the old leaven of sin is purged out and I am now a part of the new lump and am UNLEAVENED.

3)  Firstfruits , 4 ) Feast of weeks (Pentecost) & 5) Feast of Ingathering (Tabernacles):

Ex 23:19 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the YAHUAH thy Alahim. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

 Ex 34:22 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.

Firstfruits:
Jas 1:18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

Re 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto Alahim and to the Lamb.

1Co 15:20 ¶ But now is Messiah risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
Feast of weeks (Pentecost):

1Co 15:23 But every man in his own order: Messiah the firstfruits; afterward they that are Messiah's at his coming.

Ro 8:23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
Feast of Ingathering (Tabernacles):

Le 23:42 Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:
 Le 23:43 That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the YAHUAH your Alahim

Mr 4:26 And he said, So is the kingdom of Alahim, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how. 28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear. 29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

Mt 13:39  The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

Ps 39:12 Hear my prayer, O YAHUAH, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger before thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.

Heb 13:12 Wherefore Yahusha also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. 13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

6) Feast of trumpets:

Joe 2:1 ¶ Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the YAHUAH cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
Joe 2:15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.

Eze 33:3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; 4 Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.

7) Day of Atonement:

Le 16:7 And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the YAHUAH at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. 8 And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the YAHUAH, and the other lot for the scapegoat. 9 And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the YAHUAH'S lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. 10 But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the YAHUAH, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.

Heb 13:12 Wherefore Yahusha also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

Ro 5:11 And not only so, but we also joy in Alahim through our Yahuah Yahusha Messiah, by whom we have now received the atonement.

Ro 5:10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to Alahim by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

Col 1:21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled


You need to go beyond the ‘LETTER’ into the ‘SPIRIT’ and see how one who is in Messiah observes all the feasts of the Yahuah perpetually and eternally. All those observing feasts as carnal ordinances are seeking refuge in National Israel whose one stone was not left upon the other, you are seeking refuge in a nation from whom the kingdom of Alahim was taken away. 

 Lu 21:6 As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

Mt 21:42 Yahusha saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Yahuah's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
 43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of Alahim shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

Covering/Headship of the Husband-Part 1

Back ground to this study: When we read the letter written to the Corinthian church we find Paul giving the church various ordinances to bring order in the church. These ordinances have been observed in the 'letter' for years now in various denominational churches and no one has got deep down to understand why these ordinances were laid down which seem to be just like the 'law' which actually was spiritual but killed all those observing the letter.

 Ro 7:14 ¶ For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.

The law/ordinance in itself was spiritual and needed a spiritual mind to understand it but man is/was carnal so he never got to the 'spirit' of the ordinance/commandment and hence observed it in 'letter' and was killed. We now think that once we are on this side of the cross the 'law' of Alahim is abolished and everything is made plain and clear. No sir, the law was never abolished but fulfilled by Messiah and 'UPHELD' not 'ABOLISHED'. The 'spirit' is still hidden in the 'letter'

The carnal man is the problem who doesn't understand the law of Alahim and takes things literally without understanding the spirit.On the other hand the true Jews are the elect of Alahim who are circumcised by Alahim in the heart to serve in the newness of spirit and not in the oldness of the letter

 Ro 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of Alahim.

Ro 7:6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

Unfortunately even on this side of the cross the CARNAL will always remain CARNAL and will only observe the 'letter' and leave out the 'spiritual' because they do not understand the deep things of Alahim. The evidence is seen in their testimony in handling scriptures whether they are of those who are in need of 'MILK' or of those who eat 'STRONG MEAT'

Ro 8:1 ¶ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Messiah Yahusha, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Messiah Yahusha hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

The 'law of the Spirit of life' in Messiah Yahusha has set free all those who are in Messiah i.e. all those who are gone beyond the vail of his flesh into the spirit while the rest still remain in the 'law of sin and death' observing carnal ordinances which never give life.

Heb 10:19 ¶ Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Yahusha,
 20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

The call is to enter the holiest by a NEW and LIVING WAY which he hath consecrated for us through the VEIL OF HIS FLESH. Carnal man will never be able to penetrate through the veil of his flesh and hence will come to a wrong christ/anti-christ which never saves.

In this study we will see how Eve's mind was corrupted from the simplicity that is in Messiah by coming under the covering of the once covering cherub who deceived her and how Paul in his ordinance to the Corinthian church speaks of woman covering her head and what it means 'in the spirit'.

 2Co 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Messiah.

The background of the Corinthian church was that they were carnal and Paul said they were in need of milk and not solid meat because of the divisions that were in them.

1Co 3:1 ¶ And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Messiah.
 2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
 3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

While 'MILK' may seem to being fed from Alahim's word and good but those of 'AGE' or those who are supposed to be 'WEANED' if are fed with milk then there seems to be a problem because that person is not showing evidence of being 'in the spirit' but being carnal.

Heb 5:12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of Alahim; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
 13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Only the new born babes require milk because they are not yet ready to eat strong meat. But when years pass by that babe needs to show evidence of being able to eat strong meat or else he is carnal. For details on this you may refer to my study 'Am I weaned or under suck?' on this blog www.dsouzashodan.blogspot.in 

1Pe 2:2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

Paul is telling the Corinthian church that he couldn't speak to them as unto spiritual but as unto carnal feeding them with milk and not meat because they were not able to bear it. Hence the ordinances given to them are 'milk in the letter' in which was hidden 'strong meat in the spirit' and only the elect of Alahim would go past the veil of the flesh to understand the spirit.

The ordinance of headship to the carnal mind means 'LITERAL' but the spiritual man will understand the ordinance of headship in 'SPIRIT'. Paul praises the brethren in Corinthian church for keeping the ordinances he delivered to them which shows that there were elect of Alahim in that church along with the carnal.

1Co 11:2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.
 3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Messiah; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Messiah is Alahim.

Paul then goes on to speak of 'HEADSHIP'

1) head of man is Messiah
2) head of woman is man
3) head of Messiah is Alahim

This headship that Paul is talking about speaks of a 'COVERING' and is a spiritual ordinance which carnal man doesn't understand and hence they always see Messiah inferior to Alahim rather than being submissive to Alahim in respect to being part of creation by his choice for which he came out of Alahim to be the 'HUSBAND'

Hence Alahim is our husband IN CHRIST and without Messiah coming out of Alahim, Alahim couldn't have been our husband. That's the spiritual ordinance.

Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Yahuah:

Isa 54:5 For thy Maker is thine husband; Yahuah of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The Alahim of the whole earth shall he be called.

Alahim is beyond time, space and matter and no creature can get to him and his humility is seen in him bowing down the heavens and the earth in relating to us as our Father, husband and maker and this he fulfilled in Messiah. The headship of Alahim over Messiah is in respect to relate to his creation. You remove the link i.e. Messiah and you wouldn't be able to relate to Alahim and he would be to you an 'UNKNOWN GOD'. That is the fact. Once we have understood the headship of Alahim over Messiah and the purpose will we be able to relate to Alahim. 

 2Co 5:18 And all things are of Alahim, who hath reconciled us to himself by Yahusha Messiah, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

 Col 1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

Paul speaks of a reconciliation of all things to Alahim through Messiah in earth and in heaven which shows the importance of this headship. Once we have determined the headship of Alahim over Messiah it is important to understand that the ordinance of a woman covering her head given is spiritual and not in the letter. The Woman is the church and the MAN is Messiah and it is Messiah who is in the image and glory of Alahim and this isn't speaking of Adam who was earthy and was made subject to vanity not by his will but by the reason of him (Alahim) who subjected the same in hope of Messiah who is the true image of the invisible Alahim.

Ro 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

1Co 11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of Alahim: but the woman is the glory of the man.

If you notice carefully you would see that this COVERING is in respect to 'being in the image and glory'

Col 1:15 Who (Messiah) is the image of the invisible Alahim, the firstborn of every creature:

Man was predestined to be conformed to the IMAGE OF HIS SON and the Son IS THE IMAGE of the invisible Alahim.

Ro 8:29 ¶ For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Adam & Eve never bore the image of Alahim to begin with, it was in their subjection of hope to bear it. They were predestined to bear the image of the Son. In spiritual vs spiritual comparison we understand that their relationship as husband and wife and the headship of the man over the woman is a reflection of the relationship between the man Messiah Yahusha and his wife the church and his headship over her.

 Ge 5:2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

The Woman was meant to be hidden in the man to be part of him in his covering over her. We read in Gen 5:2 that Alahim created them male and female and blessed them and called their name Adam because that's how Alahim saw them in his ordinance.

Col 3:3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Messiah in Alahim.

When the Woman (church) is in Messiah (man) her life is hid with Messiah IN GOD. That's how we understand the headship in spirit in this 'RELATIONSHIP'

 Eph 5:30 For we are members of his (Messiah's) body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

Compare with Ge 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

That's why we see Paul saying in in 1Corin 11: 8 that the man is not of the woman but the woman is of the man. He is relating this to Messiah (the man) and woman (church) his wife. So we see how in a carnal ordinance is hidden the spiritual ordinance.

1Co 11:8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
 9  Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

Once we have realized the importance of the headship in relationship to creation we see that if the Woman (church) doesn't have power on her head (of Messiah her husband) then she is subject to the covering of a deceiving covering cherub & his false messenger's who was himself subject to the covering of his beauty and not of Messiah ( we will see what this means a little later) and that's exactly what we see spiritually from what happened in the garden of Eden.

1Co 11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.

Our Yahuah our husband is the Messenger of the Covenant. if the woman is hid in him she is in his covenant and the wicked one cannot touch her.

 Mal 3:1 ¶ Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Yahuah, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the YAHUAH of hosts.

 1Jo 5:18 ¶ We know that whosoever is born of Alahim sinneth not; but he that is begotten of Alahim keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.


Satan was there in the garden of Eden as the covering cherub and because the woman was not under the covering of her husband he led her to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil to deceive her. The tree of knowledge of good and evil stands for a false Messiah, that's why Paul says in 2 Corin 11:3 that he feared that just as the the serpent deceived Eve even so their minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Messiah.

Eze 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of Alahim; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.

Eze 28:16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of Alahim: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

When the Woman is in her husband and his headship/covering over her she is led by her husband to eat of the tree of life. These are the words of Messiah, the husband to his church.

 Re 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of Alahim.

It is important the Woman be hid in her husband because only then she gets the right to eat of the tree of life. Adam as the husband of Eve did not have the ability to lead his wife to the tree of life but was led by his wife to the tree of knowledge of good and evil. This ability is only in Messiah the true husband and maker. Hence Adam and Eve as a creature were subject to vanity and Messiah cannot be a creature because he himself would be subject to vanity not having the ability to lead his wife to eat of the tree of life. Having come out of Alahim and bearing Alahim's own hupostasis (substance Heb 1:3) he leads his wife to the tree of life to give her eternal life. By his headship to his wife in becoming her husband he reconciles everything back to Alahim by this headship/covering.
What was guarded to forbid Adam and Eve to eat from the tree of life was given by the true husband when he brings the wife under his subjection by hiding her in him.

Ge 3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

Lastly speaking of Satan who once was a Covering cherub and caused the pattern of Alahim to stop to Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden he did not know that it was ordained by Alahim to make way for Messiah who would be the true husband and take his wife to the tree of life.

As a covering cherub he too lacked the Covering of the headship of Messiah.

Col 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

1Pe 3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of Alahim; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.

He saw the beauty of his COVERING in every precious stone and not to be in Messiah the hidden wisdom of Alahim. Hence his wisdom was corrupted because it lacked a connection to Alahim. He saw no need of it.

Eze 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of Alahim; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.

Eze 28:17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

The headship of Messiah over things in earth and in heaven relates all things back to Alahim as this was his ordinance and that's what we read in Col 1:19-20. The things in heaven include the angels and on earth mankind.

Col 1:19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

The purpose of this headship is to give man the dominion of the world to come.

Heb 2:5 ¶ For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
 6 But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him?

 Da 7:27 And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.

Da 7:18 But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.

Thick Darkness

In scriptures we always see darkness associated with those who are heathen and label them as being outside the covenant. The problem has always been with us seeing the outside rather than introspecting and making our calling and election sure.

 2Pe 1:10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

While it is true that the heathen are in darkness, it is also true that those who do not understand his covenant are associated with the darkness. The Light of Gen 1:3 is only seen by those whom the Yahuah will make to come near him, the rest will be outside in the THICK DARKNESS.

Ge 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Alahim moved upon the face of the waters.

The condition of the world with the absence of the LIGHT OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE GLORY OF GOD (2 Corin 4:6) is seen in the condition stated in Gen 1:2. 'Without form, void, darkness' and above all Spirit of Alahim moving upon these waters of darkness. I read that text so many times before but never saw until now what it means when it says 'the Spirit of Alahim moved upon the face of the waters/deep where there was DARKNESS'.

It was Alahim's intention that not all would see/understand the light of his knowledge which would be revealed through his Son Messiah Yahusha (2 Corin 4:6). The separation of Day from Night, light for Darkness was his ordinance.

David when he was saved from the hand of Saul describes prophetically about this DARKNESS. Saul was the one who prophesied as one of the prophets, the people once spoke of him saying " Is Saul also among the prophets"

1Sa 10:11 And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?

But the one who seemed to be a 'prophet of Yahuah' was the enemy of his anointed. He was not on the side of Yahuah but against him, trying to kill his 'anointed'. David prophetically describes the appearance of Alahim who delivered him from his enemy Saul. 

I am taking both these verses from 2 Sam 22:10-12 and Psalms 18:9-11 which are parallel verses and speak of Alahim bowing down the heavens and coming down and darkness being under his feet. Pslams 18:11 says 'He made darkness his secret place and his pavilion round about him were dark waters'. When spiritually compared to Gen 1:2 we see a spiritual picture of Alahim hiding his face with an outer layer of the thick darkness which none of those chosen for salvation will ever get to see.


2Sa 22:10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
 11 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
 12 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.


Ps 18:9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.
 10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
 11 He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

On the other hand Alahim is the one who delivers his people from the great waters of darkness in which are these STRANGE CHILDREN. These strange children are those who have come along with Japehth (father of the Gentiles), while the Gentiles attained salvation and entered the tents of Shem (Gen 9:27), the strange children are those who came along with them and dwelt in the OUTER COURT where there is this thick darkness.

Ps 144:7 Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;

That is why they are not able to see 'WHO CHRIST IS' because the darkness under the feet of Alahim (prophetically stated in 2 Sam 22:10) makes them only see him as a 'Sacrificial candidate' but they can't see his 'DEITY'. They can't see beyond that thick darkness. While there are others who claim to believe in his DEITY they actually believe in a 'diluted deity gospel' and all part of the distorted pattern.

The elect of Alahim dwell above that darkness, that's why those not chosen for salvation cannot discern who are the elect of Alahim whereas those under the shadow of his wings can discern who the enemies of Messiah are.

Ps 27:5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

Ps 31:20 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

Ps 25:14 The secret of the YAHUAH is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

In the OT Alahim paints a spiritual picture showing us the difference between those outside of the thick darkness and those who cross that thick darkness to see the LIGHT.

Ps 103:7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

Ex 20:21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where Alahim was.

What is interesting to see is that the law on the tablets of stone came to those who were standing outside viewing the thick darkness

 De 5:22 These words the YAHUAH (Yahuah)  spake unto all your assembly in the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice: and he added no more. And he wrote them in two tables of stone, and delivered them unto me.

In the law was hidden/sealed the mystery of Alahim

 Joh 6:27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath Alahim the Father sealed.

The 'meat that perisheth' is the understanding which is shadowy/thick darkness which those not chosen for salvation always 'Labor' for and are killed by the 'letter' because they cannot eat the meat which gives everlasting life.

 2Co 3:6 ¶ Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

Here is where one has to wisely discern. All these years the various denominations/churches have taught that it speaks of Jews who rejected the gospel of grace, while that is partly true, the fact is all those so called Messiah followers who abide outside of that thick darkness are the carnal Messiahians who cannot see the 'spirit' and do not understand his covenant. They have a different version of the gospel.

They pursue the elect thinking the elect are the enemies of the gospel and persecute them. They would get a shock of their lives when they would see that they are the ones who are deceived into believing a false gospel. This picture can be seen in Egypt (the false brethren of Israel ) pursuing the children of Israel. In my study on this blog 'Gog and Magog' I have shared on this briefly. Here is a portion of that message

'Of the sons of Ham came kingdoms like Babel later named as Babylon, Philistines, Canaanites (Jebusites, Hivites etc) who were arch enemies of Israel. Two such kingdoms I did not mention in my previous study were Egypt & Sodom and Gomorrah. Here is proof from scripture that Egyptians & Sodom & Gomorrah were descendants of Ham.

Ps 105:23 Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

Ps 106:21 They forgat Alahim their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;
 22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red sea.' End of quote.


To understand who are the false brethren of Israel you may refer to the full study here: http://dsouzashodan72.blogspot.in/2014/02/gog-and-magog.html


In pursuing the children of Israel Alahim shows us the spiritual picture of the thick darkness which came between the camp of Egypt and the children of Israel and while the camp of Israel got the light the camp of Egypt was in thick darkness



 Ex 14:19 And the angel of Alahim, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:

 20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.


These are the words of Alahim to Job

Job 38:6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
 7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of Alahim shouted for joy?
 8 Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?9 When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,
 10 And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
 11 And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
 12 ¶ Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;
 13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
 14 It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
 15 And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.

These words are spirit and they are truth. They reveal that when Alahim would lay the cornerstone i.e. Messiah only the morning stars (elect) would rejoice because they would be dwelling in the light but outside are those who can only see the thick darkness which Alahim set as BARS and DOORS where the proud will come upto but no further than that. It's clear as crystal when we compare 'spiritual vs spiritual'.

Ps 132:13 For the YAHUAH hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
 14 This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.

Solomon built a house for 'Yahuah' and his words seem to say that 'Yahuah' would dwell in the temple he built forever but instead his words were prophetic

2Ch 6:1 ¶ Then said Solomon, The YAHUAH hath said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
 2 But I have built an house of habitation for thee, and a place for thy dwelling for ever.
 3 And the king turned his face, and blessed the whole congregation of Israel: and all the congregation of Israel stood.
 4 And he said, Blessed be the YAHUAH Alahim of Israel, who hath with his hands fulfilled that which he spake with his mouth to my father David, saying,
 5 Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my people Israel:
 6 But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

'David' in verse 6 is 'Messiah' because Alahim promised David that his seed would sit on his throne forever.  The darkness under the feet of Alahim keeps all those not chosen for salvation outside 'Jerusalem' because they just can't see the DEITY of Messiah as defined by Alahim in his word.

Zep 1:14 ¶ The great day of the YAHUAH is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the YAHUAH: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.
 15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,
 16 A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers.
 17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the YAHUAH: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.

Joe 2:1 ¶ Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the YAHUAH cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
 2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generation.

When we read the passages from Joel 2 Alahim shows us the picture of  those in the thick darkness who are the false brethren and likens the day of thick darkness in verse 2 'as the morning spread upon the mountains'. These false brethren come along with the elect. Many see the day of the Yahuah as  Great Tribulation, while this is true how many see the 'DAY Of THE YAHUAH' /'Day of his thick darkness revealed? Only the elect do. This is what it means 'the sun turning into darkness and the moon into blood' before the great and notable day of the Yahuah come.

 Ac 2:16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

 17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith Alahim, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

 19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Yahuah come:

When Alahim poured out his Spirit on the day of Pentecost it were the 'last days' and Peter quotes what Alahim said through the prophet Joel and likens what's happened to the 'day of clouds and of thick darkness'. This thick darkness was not seen until the discernment came to his elect who see the rule of the beasts and those giving their strength to the beast.

Re 16:10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

The thick darkness always existed but the understanding of it came in the time appointed by Alahim to be revealed to his servants. There may be many reading this post and yet would only see means to mock and scoff rather than pursue to enter through the thick darkness into the marvelous light.

Ex 15:1 ¶ Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the YAHUAH, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the YAHUAH, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

Ex 15:14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.
 15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
 16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O YAHUAH, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.

Egypt, Palestine, Edom, Moab, Cannanites were all brethren of Israel. They were false brethren and enemies of Israel and of Alahim.

Re 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth

The song of Moses and of the lamb are synonymous and no one could learn that song apart from those who are election of Alahim.

 Re 15:3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of Alahim, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Yahuah Alahim Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.

Changing the truth for a lie

Man is depraved in nature and in his carnality has been trying to fit Alahim into his religion because he can't see the Pattern Alahim has designed so he makes his own pattern to fit Alahim & his commandments into. Men who is of those who were 'Called' are under more severe judgement because they insist that they know Alahim and his Way but are gone in the way of Cain, Korah and the way of Balaam. Their start seemed right but have gone astray on a journey heaping up for themselves treasure for THE LAST DAYS


Jas 5:1  Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
Jas 5:2  Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
Jas 5:3  Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

While the scriptures above may seem to be addressing the literal rich of the world it's actually addressing those who identify themselves with Messiah and claiming to be rich just as the Rich man in the parable of Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16) wore fine linen and stood symbolically for the Nation of Israel who were rich in the covenants, glory, promises as stated in Rom 9:4

Rom 9:4  Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of Alahim, and the promises;

Jas 5:4  Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Yahuah of sabaoth.

They have heaped for themselves treasure for the last days (deceived into thinking they are saved and ready to meet the Yahuah). They have held the truth (hire of the labourers) in unrighteousness and have suppressed the truth.

Rom 1:18  For the wrath of Alahim is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 
Rom 1:19  Because that which may be known of Alahim is manifest in them; for Alahim hath shewed it unto them.
Rom 1:20  For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Alahimhead; so that they are without excuse:
Rom 1:21  Because that, when they knew Alahim, they glorified him not as Alahim, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 

2Pe 2:15  Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 

Jud 1:11  Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

Rom 1:25  Who changed the truth of Alahim into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 

All these 3 men Cain: when he offered fruit of the ground over Alahim's sacrifice of lamb, Balaam when he for money was willing to exchange blessing for a curse & Korah being a Levite despised his priesthood for mediatorship rebelling against Moses and leading the rebellion, all these 3 tried to change the truth of Alahim into a lie, a very similar thing which so called followers of Messiah are doing today by trying to change Alahim's laws to suit their doctrinal bias.

Dan 7:25  And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. 

There is so much likeness in the carnal man with Satan who also is behind changing Alahim's Pattern. The CARNAL MIND IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE LAW OF GOD but against it.

Rom 8:5  For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 
Rom 8:6  For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 
Rom 8:7  Because the carnal mind is enmity against Alahim: for it is not subject to the law of Alahim, neither indeed can be. 

The elect who obey his commandments are labelled as cults and are mocked upon for obeying Alahim's commandments.

2Th 2:3  Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 
2Th 2:4  Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called Alahim, or that is worshipped; so that he as Alahim sitteth in the temple of Alahim, shewing himself that he is Alahim. 
2Th 2:5  Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 
2Th 2:6  And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 
2Th 2:7  For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 

Mystery Babylon has always been working as a spiritual kingdom right from the garden of Eden but was restrained to be unleashed in the LAST DAYS where those who were rich got their riches corrupted and their gold and silver cankered by their not loving the truth.

2Th 2:10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
The claim of being a spiritual Jew is false because a true Jew would show love and obedience towards Alahim's Pattern.

Rev3:9  Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. 

All those who have departed from the churches are seeing the 'falling away' mentioned in 2 Thess 2 as the 'Church' but not within themselves. They have come out with the same beliefs as of the church. 
What is incredible is that Alahim doesn't leave his elect but reveals truth to them in his mercy. What's remarkable to see the words 'son of perdition' as stated in 2 Thess 2 which readers think are the Pastors and elders ruling the church. Son of perdition are all those who exchange the truth for a lie beginning from the beast himself.

Job 17:2  Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation? 
Job 17:12  They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness. 

Rev 17:11  And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. 

Joh 17:12  While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. 

The evidence of these 'sons of perdition' is seen in they giving their strength to the beast to blaspheme Alahim's name, his tabernacle and those who dwell in it.

Rev 13:6  And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against Alahim, to blaspheme his name (Alahim's name), and his tabernacle (his Pattern), and them that dwell in heaven (elect in his kingdom). 


They change his name, his pattern and persecute his people without realizing what they are doing

2Th 2:12  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 

Isa 4:1  And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach. 
Isa 4:2  In that day shall the branch of the YAHUAH be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel. 

Mystery Babylon is within not outside and that's what people don't understand. They see themselves as righteous and others in error. We mus introspect to make our calling and election sure.

'Changing truth of Alahim into a lie' are against his NAME which he gave as a MEMORIAL to all generations. They take the meaning of the name and the glory behind it but want to leave out his true name exchanging it with 'Baal'. The moment his name is changed, the glory fades away. They don't understand that you take out his name the glory departs away. They fail to see that Eliyah called on the name of 'YAHUA' and fire came down from heaven and licked up even the water in the trough

1Ki 18:24 And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the YAHUAH( Yahuah): and the Alahim that answereth by fire, let him be Alahim. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.

Imagine Eliyah calling on the name which is not given by Alahim, would Alahim answer him? Wouldn't he too be labeled as a Baal worshiper. People are into so much of dilution business. They accuse me as a Name cult without understanding that Alahim gave us his NAME to call upon to be SAVED, not me. They also accuse that I'm teaching Hebraic words sanctity. I'm not teaching, Alahim's word teaches us the spiritual meanings behind the terminology he used describing him and his people by their heritage in HIMSELF setting himself apart from other gods. You cannot call Alahim 'Holy Joe' can you? Wouldn't that be disrespectful. While it may seem funny to some because no one ever must have called him by that name, would it be justified to call him with names which are derivations of carnal men's translations?

We are on the NT side but nothing has changed. The law is not ABOLISHED but fulfilled by CHRIST. He obeyed it perfectly. Messiah himself uses the same terminology used for an Israelite. Who do you suppose he is addressing 'synagogue of Satan'? Those who call themselves Jews but are not.

 Re 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

 Re 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

Paul gives us a definition of who a true JEW is:

Ro 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of Alahim.

 Php 3:3 For we are the circumcision, which worship Alahim in the spirit, and rejoice in Messiah YahuahSHI, and have no confidence in the flesh.

While a Jew who was outwardly called on the name of Yahuah without understanding the MEMORIAL of his name as Yahusha remained bound in the letter, even so it is now. There are those who call on the true name but are associated with pagan doctrines. Whether this or that, Alahim's pattern doesn't change. You cannot rename Alahim's name, his laws and commandments. Only heathen do that. You can't look at people's actions and decide what you will choose to call him. You simply obey him. Obedience is better than sacrifice.

Joe 2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the YAHUA shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the YAHUAH hath said, and in the remnant whom the YAHUAH shall call

Ro 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Yahuah (YahuahSHI) shall be saved

You change the name to anything else and you are not calling on the name of the Yahuah but another god who cannot save you. The glory of Alahim is associated with his NAME. You can't leave out his name and expect his glory to come down.


Joh 12:28  Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. 


Depraved mind sees Heb 1:4 to find a way out of calling on Yahusha's name. Below is the word to word from Greek to English

Heb 1:4 ¶ Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

Came to pass (ginomai) so great (tosoutos) better (kritetohn) that (ho) messenger/angel (aggelos)  as many as  (hostos) inherit (klayronomeho) surpassing (diaphoros) name (onoma) along/with (parah) them (autos)

Heb 1:4 needs to be read in a spiritual vs spiritual understanding: Angels used in Mediation as ' Michael'  (Miyka'el) means 'one who is like Alahim',  'Gabriel' (Gabriy'el) meaning 'valiant man of Alahim' Lucifer (heylel) meaning ' morning-star of Alahim' had names attested to title called Alahim which in Hebrew means 'EL'

Ex 6:3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of EL Shadday, but by my name Yahuah was I not known to them.

The Son of Alahim has a name which is derived from the NAME OF GOD and not to a title 'EL' and the name Alahim gave was 'YAHUA' and that's why he has obtained a more excellent NAME than ANGELS according to Heb 1:4  The next verse of Heb 1:5 says "Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?"

We read in John 12:28 where Alahim tells he has glorified his name and will glorify it again. Alahim glorified his name 'Yahuah' when he brought Israel out of Egypt by his strong arm and here Alahim is saying he would glorify it again as 'YahuahSHI' because he would save his people from SIN.

The Son came out from Alahim's own bosom bearing his name. The name 'Yahusha' was not Hebrew name to begin with and it's not a name derived from Alahim's name 'Yahuah'. The depraved mind went to even say David called Alahim 'Baal perazim' and Alahim was pleased with that name he called him. That's how depraved and carnal man is. Changing the truth of Alahim for a lie.

2Sa 5:20 And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them there, and said, The YAHUAH hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baalperazim.

'Baalperazim' means Alahim has 'thrust through Baal like a breach'. David was in no way seeing a spiritual reputation or glory in associating Alahim's holy name to a pagan god 'Baal'. That's abominable to even think.

Ps 111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

Derivation of the Name YAHUSHA

His name came to be rendered Yahshua, Yahushua, YaOwHuSHuA,YWHWSHUA, however, none of those renderings accurately vocalize the Hebrew name [vwhy.

What is important to note is names don’t translate but transliterate. 

Meaning of transliterate: write or print (a letter or word) using the closest corresponding letters of a different alphabet or language.

"names from one language are often transliterated into another"

The problem lies that men are translating names instead of transliterating and Satan has used this against getting a name not derived from 'Yahu' and has even been behind in changing the name ' Yahu' to Jehovah or Jah in English.

The name Yah was suppressed by adding 'eh' to it by Jews because they feared using 'Yah' and thus you find the names ' Jeshua' as in Ezra, Nehemiah's time which is actually 'Yeshua' and was then adopted in Aaramic. This name is spelled by the letters [vwhy which are the letters called yuhd, hay, vav, sheen, ayin. The name as originally written did not have vowel points. The vowel points were added by the rabbis around the tenth century of the common era to aid in remembering how they pronounce the Hebrew. The rabbis pronounced this name as "Yahusha" and so gave the vowel points for this pronunciation so that in today's Masoretic Hebrew text it appears as [;vuAhy

But the rabbis' pronunciation is not inspired. Just as it is a commonly accepted assumption that the rabbis intentionally scrambled the vowel points under the name of Elohim hwhy (Yahuwah) in order to conceal its proper vocalization, it is also likely that to continue to hide the correct pronunciation ofhwhy (Yahuwah), the rabbis intentionally mispronounced [vwhy and therefore gave this name the wrong vowel points to propagate this mis-vocalization. 

Additionally, there are Hebrew names which use the first three letters of the name hwhy - namelywhy. Yeshayahu Why"å[.v;(y> (Isaiah in Isaiah 1:1). Yirmyahu Why"ßm.r>yI (Jeremiah in Jer 1:1) and Eliyahu WhY""liae (Elijah in 1 Kings 17:1) all attest to the correct pronunciation of the first three letters of the Name. In each of these three names, the last three letters ‘why’ are pronounced "Yahu." The rabbis pronounce these same letters in Joshua's name as "Yeho"!. The first part of Messiah's human name [vwhy is "Yahu. The final part of Messiah's Hebrew name is traditionally rendered "shua", but this too is incorrect. The "oo" (u) part of this is the pronouncing of the rabbinic vowel point between the sheen and the ayin. The vowel points were not part of the original spelling of the Hebrew. These "vowels" were added by the rabbis more than a millennium after the Scriptures were written. So, if we remove this uninspired rabbinic vowel pointing and pronounce only the original inspired spelling of this name, we should be pronouncing this last part of his name as "sha."

First, we note that the names for the prophets Yesha-yahu Why"å[.v;(y> (Isaiah in Isaiah 1:1) and Elisha [v'Ûylia/- (Elisha in 1 Kings 19:16) both affirm that "sheen" followed by "ayin" is correctly pronounced "sha." Yeshayahu has the same meaning as [vwhy . Yeshayahu means "he saves, (that is) Yahu", while [vwhy means "Yahu saves." Elisha' has the meaning, "My El saves." The Hebrew word [;Wv (shua) has two distinct meanings. The first is "cry for help, scream" And the second is "opulence, wealth, rich, affluent." Certainly, the "shua" ending on Messiah's name is not possible, else his name would mean, "Yahu is crying for help".The Hebrew root from which the name comes is [v;yO: [v;y†' ("yesha" or "yasha"). This word means "help, deliverance, salvation." The [v ending of the word "yesha" clearly has the "sha" vocalization. Thus, Messiah's name has the same vocalization since it was taken from the root word, "yesha" - to save.

Putting it all together, we take the "Yahu" which is demonstrated to be the common pronunciation of "yud, hay, vav" and the "sha" which is the common pronunciation of "sheen, ayin" and we arrive atYahusha. Thus the Messiah's correctly spelled and pronounced name is not "Yahusha" nor "Yahushua" nor "Yahshua" but rather,Yahusha, which translated means, "Yahu saves.
