Ge 9:27 Alahim shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
In our previous studies we have seen who the sons of Noah were and what is the relevance of this prophecy for the Gentiles elect who come back to the tents of Shem as prophesied by Noah. We saw that Shem was the father of the Jews, Ham was the father of the Canaanites and all those belonging to Babel and Japheth the father of the Gentiles.
Children of Shem: Ge 10:22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
In the New Testament Luke records Joseph's lineage back to Shem. Here are the scriptures:
Luke3:23 When He began His ministry, Yahushua Himself was about thirty years of age, being, as was supposed, the son of Yoseph, the son of Eli,
24 the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melchi, the son of Jannai, the son of Yoseph,
25 the son of MattathYah, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Hesli, the son of Naggai, 26 the son of Maath, the son of MattathYah, the son of Semein, the son of Yoseph, the son of Yodah,
27 the son of Yahuchanan, the son of Rhesa, the son of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, the son of Neri,
28 the son of Melchi, the son of Addi, the son of Cosam, the son of Elmadam, the son of Er,
29 the son of Yahushua (Joshua), the son of Eliezer, the son of Jorim, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi,
30 the son of Simeon, the son of Judah, the son of Yoseph, the son of Jonam, the son of Eliakim,
31 the son of Melea, the son of Menna, the son of Mattatha, the son of Nathan, the son of Daud,
32 the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon,
33 the son of Amminadab, the son of Admin, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Yahudah
34 the son of Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham, the son of Terah, the son of Nahor,
35 the son of Serug, the son of Reu, the son of Peleg, the son of Heber, the son of Shelah
36 the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech
Sons of Japeth:
Ge 10:2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
Sons of Ham:
Ge 10:6 ¶ And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.
8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
9 He was a mighty hunter before Yahuah: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before Yahuah.
10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
We have seen Noah cursing the seed of Ham for exposing the nakedness of his father. In this study we will focus on the spiritual meaning of Japheth (father of Gentiles) coming into the tents of the Shem (father of the Hebrews).
With this background we now need to compare spiritual with spiritual to understand how the seed of Japheth i.e. Gentiles come back to the tents of Shem.
We have no shadow of doubt that the OT was written in Paleo Hebrew which is the Ktav Ivri script as Moses was given the commandments written on tablets of stone written by the finger of Alahim. The question is, was the New Testament written in Greek? The Oldest Manuscript of Greek is dated between 175 AD to 225 AD called the Papyrus 46. This is 200 years after the Messiah. The other 5000 odd of Greek manuscripts are only copies of this. We have been taught right from childhood that the New Testament was written in Greek but the only historical proof we have is Papyrus 46 and that too 200 years after Messiah. After the death of the apostles and with the destruction of Jerusalem the Jews were scattered all across the globe and were without a nation until 1948. The Bible has its own history and we must find evidence from it to see whether the New Testament was written in Greek or Hebrew. The argument is based on the gospel going out in different languages on the day of Pentecost when the Jews who were scattered abroad had come to Jerusalem to celebrate the feast of Pentecost and these Jews heard the marvelous works of Alahim in their own languages.
Ac 2:5 ¶ And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,
11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of Alahim
12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
These Jews were surprised and were in doubt. They doubted because Alahim had never spoken to them but through the Hebrew by the mouth of the prophets and here they were hearing the wonderful works of Alahim in their own languages.
There is no doubt that the wonderful works of Alahim was heard in different tongues. But does that mean that now names, feasts, ordinances (I'm speaking of the spiritual observance and not literal) etc would change with believers now adapting the customs of the world by worshiping Alahim in their own way?
Joh 4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Yahusha saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Yahusha told the Samaritan woman that salvation is of the Jews. This is not speaking of a literal seed of Abraham but the spiritual seed i.e. those who believe in the Messiah are counted as spiritual Jews.
Ro 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
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.
The message of the cross did go out in different languages but as per the words of the Messiah salvation is of the Jews. This means that the Gentiles coming back to the tents of Shem are the spiritual Jews. The change in them is that they now have Hebraic roots in them and are in their journey back to the tents of Shem not the other way around. Those changing the Turah of Yahuah to the Gentile or Greek customs are not the spiritual Jews.
Eph 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of Alahim;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Yahusha Messiah himself being the chief corner stone.
Paul taught that we are no more strangers and foreigners but fellowcitizens with the saints of the household of Alahim built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. Paul also taught that we Gentiles being branches of the wild olive tree were grafted into the olive tree which was natural i.e. Israel of Alahim. He teaches that you do not bear the root but the root thee.
Ro 11:17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
This is a clear evidence that Alahim's Turah cannot be changed. It's now by his Ruach Ha'Quodesh (Holy Spirit) understood as it was intended to be understood and that is, spiritually. Not one yod or kotz of a yod will be done away with until all is fulfilled.
Joh 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
Yahusha asked us to search the scriptures as they testify of him and when he said that there was the OT written in Hebrew. How would a Gentile now a spiritual Jew search the scriptures in Hebrew when he doesn't know Hebrew? Wouldn't he depend on a translation in his own language to lead him back to the tents of Shem. Of course he would and that's why the gospel went out in different languages with now the Ruach Ha'Quodesh being poured out leading children of Japheth back to the tents of Shem through the spirit of prophecy.
The fact is by the Ruach Ha'Quodesh (Holy Spirit) the believer would search for Messiah in the resource of a translation in his language bringing him right to the roots (tents of Shem) to see the glory of Messiah, not vice versa.
Today we have millions of Messiahians referring to the Greek concordance/Greek study tools to find out meaning of words rather than searching in Hebrew what was meant to get a better understanding. They fail to see that the translations corrupted over a period of time changing times and laws and even the name of Yahuah and Yahusha were changed to pagan titles like Baali, Gad (Lord, God in English) etc. That's why we have Messiahians calling on the name of JESUS which is a Greek translation which has its roots to the Greek god Zeus.
Isa 19:18 ¶ In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to Yahuah of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.
19 In that day shall there be an altar to Yahuah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to Yahuah.
20 And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto Yahuah of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto Yahuah because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them.
21 And Yahuah shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know Yahuah in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto Yahuah, and perform it.
22 And Yahuah shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall return even to Yahuah, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them.
23 In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians.
When we compare who Egypt is we find this scripture:
Re 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Yahusha was crucified.
Isaiah 19: 18-25 doesn't mean that the nations of Egypt and Assyria would turn to Yahuah as a nation but speaks of his people who were turned astray to the customs of Egypt and Assyria coming back to him.
Isa 19:25 Whom Yahuah of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.
We must understand that Israel was in captivity both in Egypt and Assyria and they brought with them the false worship style of these nations rather than obeying the pattern given in his Turah by Yahuah. When they came out of Egypt and Assyria, they carried their language and rose up and played the harlot by renaming Yahuah to the Egyptian gods.
Isa 11:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Yahuah shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
Yahuah says that he will set his HAND A SECOND TIME to recover the remant of his people from Egypt, Assyria and uttermost parts of the earth.
We must read Isaiah 19:18-25 in the light of this. Yahuah says in Isaiah 19:18 that in that day Egypt will speak the language of Canaan. The language of Canaan was the proto Canaanite script which Adam to Noah and their sons spoke before the Turah was given in Paleo Hebrew (which is very much similar to proto Canaanite script).
Ge 4:26 And to Seth (son of Adam), to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of Yahuah.
Isa 19:18 ¶ In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to Yahuah of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.
When we read Gen 11 we see the whole world was of one language and that was the Proto Canaanite script. The people rebelled against Yahuah by building a stronghold reaching to the sky and Yahuah confused their language and dispersed them in confusion.
Ge 11:1 ¶ And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
Ge 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because Yahuah did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did Yahuah scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
Yahuah is saying in Isaiah 19:18 that those dispersed in confusion they would speak the language of Canaan i.e. they would understand the language as when men called on the name of Yahuah and swore to him. Alahim used these confused languages to bring his people back to understand his Aleph-Bet at Pentecost. In Isaiah 11:11 we also read Yahuah saying that he would bring his remnant even from the land of Shinar, Shinar is Babylon. Once we turn to the Messiah the confusion is dispelled. If the confusion still remains then you don't have the true Messiah but are believing in a false messiah who cannot save. In Isaiah 19:18-25 Yahuah uses Assyria symbolically to show us that the Ktav Ashurit language adopted by Israel in captivity and which till date is their holy tongue, will result in his remnant seeing this truth and turning to a pure language.
The prophet Isaiah shows a beautiful picture of this cleansing of tongue when he sees Yahuah of hosts in a vision and heard pure words which made him feel his lips are unclean, not that he used offensive language but he too had adopted the Ashurit tongue which Israel brought back from Babylonian captivity.
Isa 6:5 ¶ Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, Yahuah of hosts
6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
Isaiah was commissioned to conceal the pure words that he would receive from Yahuah in a language which would keep them away from Yahuah.
Paul also said that he was caught up into paradise and heard unspeakable words which is witheld (nim'na) for a man to utter.
2 Corin 12:4. ho`alah ‘el-hapar’des wayish’ma` d’bariym nis’tariym ‘asher nim’na` me’iysh l’malalam
2Co 12:4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard concealed/hidden (nis’tariym ) words, which is witheld (nim'na) from man to utter.
Isa 6:9 ¶ And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
Yet in his mercy, be it Ashurit, Greek, Latin, English or any language of the world Yahuah would gather his people unto him thus bringing them back to the tents of Shem.
The word gone out of Yahuah's mouth shall cause every knee to bow and every TONGUE to swear. In verse 25 he goes on to say that in Yahuah shall all seed of Israel be justified and shall glory.
Isa 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
24 Surely, shall one say, in Yahuah have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed (waxed hot in anger) against him shall be ashamed.
25 In Yahuah shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Zep 3:8 ¶ Therefore wait ye upon me, saith Yahuah until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of Yahuah to serve him with one consent.
Men who called on the name of Yahuah in the days of Seth (Gen 4:26) later were dispersed in confusion of Babel because they served not Alahim with one consent but rebelled against him.But here we have Yahuah promising that he will turn to the people a pure language that they may all call upon his name to serve HIM WITH ONE CONSENT.
Ps 114:1 ¶ When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
Ps 81:5 This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.
We read in Isaiah 11:11 that for a second time Yahuah will recover his remnant from Egypt, Assyria,from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. Yahuah will recover his remnant out from a people of strange language, from a language that Asaph says in his Psalms (81:5) which he understood not. We see this in spiritual comparison.
With this background we will now need to see evidence from New Testament which show that the scriptures written by the apostles and prophets were in Hebrew
Ro 1:16 ¶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of the Messiah: for it is the power of Alahim unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Paul using 'to the Jew first' is evidence that the gospel of Messiah went in the Hebrew tongue first and also to the Greek.
Evidence of Hebrew in New Testament: There are many words which the Greek kept intact because there were no equivalent words in the Greek for the Hebrew words. Let's look at a few.
Abba: KJV Mr 14:36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty Alahim, The everlasting Father (Ahba), The Prince of Peace.
The word 'Abba' is from the Hebrew word 'Ahba' and KJV translates it into English as 'Abba' keeping the pronunication intact. Ahba means Father. Isn't it strange that the Greek word for father is 'pater' and the Greek manuscript keeps the word Abha unchanged and yet places pater after it: 'Abha pater'? In English it would translate as 'father father' and that's absurd.
Hosanna: Pslams 118:25. ‘ana’ Yahúah hoshi`ah na’ ‘ana’ Yahúah hats’lichah na’.
26. baruk haba’ b’shem Yahúah berak’nukem mibeyth Yahúah.
Ps 118:25 Save now, I beseech thee, (Hoshana) O Yahuah: O Yahuah I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Yahuah: we have blessed you out of the house of Yahuah.
Joh 12:13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of Yahuah (name replaced from the LORD as KJV portrays).
Amen: Numbers 5:22. uba’u hamayim ham’ar’rim ha’eleh b’me`ayik lats’both beten w’lan’pil yarek w’am’rah ha’ishah ‘amen ‘amen.
Nu 5:22 And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen.
1Jo 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
ephphatha: Mr 7:34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
Malachi 3:10. habi’u ‘eth-kal-hama`aser ‘el-beyth ha’otsar wihitereph b’beythi ub’chanuni na’ bazo’th ‘amar Yahúwah ts’ba’oth ‘im-lo’ ‘eph’tach lakem ‘eth ‘aruboth hashamayim wahariqothi lakem b’rakah `ad-b’li-day.
Mal3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this, says Yahuah of hosts, if I will not open (‘eph’tach) for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.
Corban: Mr 7:11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.
Lev 1:2. daber ‘el-b’ney Yis’ra’El w’amar’at ‘alehem ‘adam ki-yaq’rib mikem qar’ban laYahúah min-hab’hemah min-habaqar umin-hatso’n taq’ribu ‘eth-qar’ban’kem.
Lev 1:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering (qar'ban) unto Yahuah, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.
Raca: Mt 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire
Proverbs 12:11. `obed ‘ad’matho yis’ba`-lachem um’radeph reyq chasar-leb.
Pr 12:11 ¶ He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain(reyq) persons is void of understanding.
Eli Eli lama Sabachthani: (When Pharasees got it wrong how could Greek get this right? They got it wrong too and hence the English renders it as Eli Eli lama Sabachthani whereas the Messiah uttered Ahlay Ahlay Lamah Ayzabatanay)
The Ketav Ashurit script from Hebrew Interlinear :
אֵלִ֣י אֵלִ֣י לָמָ֣ה עֲזַבְתָּ֑נִי
Hebrew reads from right to left: The Vowel points added to Psalms 22:1 gave the pronunciation as ’ê-lî ’ê-lî ‘ă-zaḇ-tā-nî; and that's how Pharasees would read Hebrew from Psalms 22:1. So when Yahusha uttered 'Ahlay Ahlay Lamah Ayzabatanay' they couldn't understand and thought he is calling Elijah for help. They didn't realize Yahusha was quoting and fulfilling Psalms 22:1.
Paul specifically addressed Yahudite (spiritual Jews) of the Corinthian assembly:
Titus was a Greek and spent a long time under Paul till he was discipled to understand the apostles doctrine and the scriptures that made him wise.
Tit 1:4 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from Alahim the Father and the Master Yahusha Messiah our Saviour.
5 ¶ For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
Ga 2:3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
Paul warns Titus to avoid genealogies, contentions and strivings about the law which shows Titus knew the law well.
Tit 3:9 ¶ But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
Paul 9 times mentions Titus when he wrote the epistle to the Corinthian church . Lastly the instance that Paul mentions where he took with him Titus to Jerusalem was of Acts 15 which shows that Titus was with Paul for a very long time before being ordained an elder of a church which Paul committed to his trust. There were no new converts who were Greeks who ever were ordained elders, bishops or deacons of the church.
There is so much of evidence of our Hebraic roots and unless one finds this one is lost in his sins because it takes him back to a greek gad Jesus who cannot save. The whole world is calling on the name of the beast and are wondering after the beast. My prayer is through this study and spiritual comparison the reader would see his journey back to the tents of Shem, being grafted into the olive tree from where we receive the golden oil.
For serious truth seekers you can may study the OT and NT Hebrew to see if what I say is true. There is a good online Paleo bible at
http://www.bayithamashiyach.com/Scriptures.html
In our previous studies we have seen who the sons of Noah were and what is the relevance of this prophecy for the Gentiles elect who come back to the tents of Shem as prophesied by Noah. We saw that Shem was the father of the Jews, Ham was the father of the Canaanites and all those belonging to Babel and Japheth the father of the Gentiles.
Children of Shem: Ge 10:22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
In the New Testament Luke records Joseph's lineage back to Shem. Here are the scriptures:
Luke3:23 When He began His ministry, Yahushua Himself was about thirty years of age, being, as was supposed, the son of Yoseph, the son of Eli,
24 the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melchi, the son of Jannai, the son of Yoseph,
25 the son of MattathYah, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Hesli, the son of Naggai, 26 the son of Maath, the son of MattathYah, the son of Semein, the son of Yoseph, the son of Yodah,
27 the son of Yahuchanan, the son of Rhesa, the son of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, the son of Neri,
28 the son of Melchi, the son of Addi, the son of Cosam, the son of Elmadam, the son of Er,
29 the son of Yahushua (Joshua), the son of Eliezer, the son of Jorim, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi,
30 the son of Simeon, the son of Judah, the son of Yoseph, the son of Jonam, the son of Eliakim,
31 the son of Melea, the son of Menna, the son of Mattatha, the son of Nathan, the son of Daud,
32 the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon,
33 the son of Amminadab, the son of Admin, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Yahudah
34 the son of Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham, the son of Terah, the son of Nahor,
35 the son of Serug, the son of Reu, the son of Peleg, the son of Heber, the son of Shelah
36 the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech
Sons of Japeth:
Ge 10:2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
Sons of Ham:
Ge 10:6 ¶ And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.
8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
9 He was a mighty hunter before Yahuah: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before Yahuah.
10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
We have seen Noah cursing the seed of Ham for exposing the nakedness of his father. In this study we will focus on the spiritual meaning of Japheth (father of Gentiles) coming into the tents of the Shem (father of the Hebrews).
With this background we now need to compare spiritual with spiritual to understand how the seed of Japheth i.e. Gentiles come back to the tents of Shem.
We have no shadow of doubt that the OT was written in Paleo Hebrew which is the Ktav Ivri script as Moses was given the commandments written on tablets of stone written by the finger of Alahim. The question is, was the New Testament written in Greek? The Oldest Manuscript of Greek is dated between 175 AD to 225 AD called the Papyrus 46. This is 200 years after the Messiah. The other 5000 odd of Greek manuscripts are only copies of this. We have been taught right from childhood that the New Testament was written in Greek but the only historical proof we have is Papyrus 46 and that too 200 years after Messiah. After the death of the apostles and with the destruction of Jerusalem the Jews were scattered all across the globe and were without a nation until 1948. The Bible has its own history and we must find evidence from it to see whether the New Testament was written in Greek or Hebrew. The argument is based on the gospel going out in different languages on the day of Pentecost when the Jews who were scattered abroad had come to Jerusalem to celebrate the feast of Pentecost and these Jews heard the marvelous works of Alahim in their own languages.
Ac 2:5 ¶ And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,
11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of Alahim
12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
These Jews were surprised and were in doubt. They doubted because Alahim had never spoken to them but through the Hebrew by the mouth of the prophets and here they were hearing the wonderful works of Alahim in their own languages.
There is no doubt that the wonderful works of Alahim was heard in different tongues. But does that mean that now names, feasts, ordinances (I'm speaking of the spiritual observance and not literal) etc would change with believers now adapting the customs of the world by worshiping Alahim in their own way?
Joh 4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Yahusha saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Yahusha told the Samaritan woman that salvation is of the Jews. This is not speaking of a literal seed of Abraham but the spiritual seed i.e. those who believe in the Messiah are counted as spiritual Jews.
Ro 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
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.
The message of the cross did go out in different languages but as per the words of the Messiah salvation is of the Jews. This means that the Gentiles coming back to the tents of Shem are the spiritual Jews. The change in them is that they now have Hebraic roots in them and are in their journey back to the tents of Shem not the other way around. Those changing the Turah of Yahuah to the Gentile or Greek customs are not the spiritual Jews.
Eph 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of Alahim;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Yahusha Messiah himself being the chief corner stone.
Paul taught that we are no more strangers and foreigners but fellowcitizens with the saints of the household of Alahim built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. Paul also taught that we Gentiles being branches of the wild olive tree were grafted into the olive tree which was natural i.e. Israel of Alahim. He teaches that you do not bear the root but the root thee.
Ro 11:17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
This is a clear evidence that Alahim's Turah cannot be changed. It's now by his Ruach Ha'Quodesh (Holy Spirit) understood as it was intended to be understood and that is, spiritually. Not one yod or kotz of a yod will be done away with until all is fulfilled.
Joh 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
Yahusha asked us to search the scriptures as they testify of him and when he said that there was the OT written in Hebrew. How would a Gentile now a spiritual Jew search the scriptures in Hebrew when he doesn't know Hebrew? Wouldn't he depend on a translation in his own language to lead him back to the tents of Shem. Of course he would and that's why the gospel went out in different languages with now the Ruach Ha'Quodesh being poured out leading children of Japheth back to the tents of Shem through the spirit of prophecy.
The fact is by the Ruach Ha'Quodesh (Holy Spirit) the believer would search for Messiah in the resource of a translation in his language bringing him right to the roots (tents of Shem) to see the glory of Messiah, not vice versa.
Today we have millions of Messiahians referring to the Greek concordance/Greek study tools to find out meaning of words rather than searching in Hebrew what was meant to get a better understanding. They fail to see that the translations corrupted over a period of time changing times and laws and even the name of Yahuah and Yahusha were changed to pagan titles like Baali, Gad (Lord, God in English) etc. That's why we have Messiahians calling on the name of JESUS which is a Greek translation which has its roots to the Greek god Zeus.
Isa 19:18 ¶ In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to Yahuah of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.
19 In that day shall there be an altar to Yahuah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to Yahuah.
20 And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto Yahuah of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto Yahuah because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them.
21 And Yahuah shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know Yahuah in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto Yahuah, and perform it.
22 And Yahuah shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall return even to Yahuah, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them.
23 In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians.
When we compare who Egypt is we find this scripture:
Re 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Yahusha was crucified.
Isaiah 19: 18-25 doesn't mean that the nations of Egypt and Assyria would turn to Yahuah as a nation but speaks of his people who were turned astray to the customs of Egypt and Assyria coming back to him.
Isa 19:25 Whom Yahuah of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.
We must understand that Israel was in captivity both in Egypt and Assyria and they brought with them the false worship style of these nations rather than obeying the pattern given in his Turah by Yahuah. When they came out of Egypt and Assyria, they carried their language and rose up and played the harlot by renaming Yahuah to the Egyptian gods.
Isa 11:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Yahuah shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
Yahuah says that he will set his HAND A SECOND TIME to recover the remant of his people from Egypt, Assyria and uttermost parts of the earth.
We must read Isaiah 19:18-25 in the light of this. Yahuah says in Isaiah 19:18 that in that day Egypt will speak the language of Canaan. The language of Canaan was the proto Canaanite script which Adam to Noah and their sons spoke before the Turah was given in Paleo Hebrew (which is very much similar to proto Canaanite script).
Ge 4:26 And to Seth (son of Adam), to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of Yahuah.
Isa 19:18 ¶ In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to Yahuah of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.
When we read Gen 11 we see the whole world was of one language and that was the Proto Canaanite script. The people rebelled against Yahuah by building a stronghold reaching to the sky and Yahuah confused their language and dispersed them in confusion.
Ge 11:1 ¶ And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
Ge 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because Yahuah did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did Yahuah scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
Yahuah is saying in Isaiah 19:18 that those dispersed in confusion they would speak the language of Canaan i.e. they would understand the language as when men called on the name of Yahuah and swore to him. Alahim used these confused languages to bring his people back to understand his Aleph-Bet at Pentecost. In Isaiah 11:11 we also read Yahuah saying that he would bring his remnant even from the land of Shinar, Shinar is Babylon. Once we turn to the Messiah the confusion is dispelled. If the confusion still remains then you don't have the true Messiah but are believing in a false messiah who cannot save. In Isaiah 19:18-25 Yahuah uses Assyria symbolically to show us that the Ktav Ashurit language adopted by Israel in captivity and which till date is their holy tongue, will result in his remnant seeing this truth and turning to a pure language.
The prophet Isaiah shows a beautiful picture of this cleansing of tongue when he sees Yahuah of hosts in a vision and heard pure words which made him feel his lips are unclean, not that he used offensive language but he too had adopted the Ashurit tongue which Israel brought back from Babylonian captivity.
Isa 6:5 ¶ Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, Yahuah of hosts
6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
Isaiah was commissioned to conceal the pure words that he would receive from Yahuah in a language which would keep them away from Yahuah.
Paul also said that he was caught up into paradise and heard unspeakable words which is witheld (nim'na) for a man to utter.
2 Corin 12:4. ho`alah ‘el-hapar’des wayish’ma` d’bariym nis’tariym ‘asher nim’na` me’iysh l’malalam
2Co 12:4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard concealed/hidden (nis’tariym ) words, which is witheld (nim'na) from man to utter.
Isa 6:9 ¶ And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
Yet in his mercy, be it Ashurit, Greek, Latin, English or any language of the world Yahuah would gather his people unto him thus bringing them back to the tents of Shem.
The word gone out of Yahuah's mouth shall cause every knee to bow and every TONGUE to swear. In verse 25 he goes on to say that in Yahuah shall all seed of Israel be justified and shall glory.
Isa 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
24 Surely, shall one say, in Yahuah have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed (waxed hot in anger) against him shall be ashamed.
25 In Yahuah shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Zep 3:8 ¶ Therefore wait ye upon me, saith Yahuah until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of Yahuah to serve him with one consent.
Men who called on the name of Yahuah in the days of Seth (Gen 4:26) later were dispersed in confusion of Babel because they served not Alahim with one consent but rebelled against him.But here we have Yahuah promising that he will turn to the people a pure language that they may all call upon his name to serve HIM WITH ONE CONSENT.
Ps 114:1 ¶ When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
Ps 81:5 This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.
We read in Isaiah 11:11 that for a second time Yahuah will recover his remnant from Egypt, Assyria,from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. Yahuah will recover his remnant out from a people of strange language, from a language that Asaph says in his Psalms (81:5) which he understood not. We see this in spiritual comparison.
With this background we will now need to see evidence from New Testament which show that the scriptures written by the apostles and prophets were in Hebrew
Ro 1:16 ¶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of the Messiah: for it is the power of Alahim unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Paul using 'to the Jew first' is evidence that the gospel of Messiah went in the Hebrew tongue first and also to the Greek.
Evidence of Hebrew in New Testament: There are many words which the Greek kept intact because there were no equivalent words in the Greek for the Hebrew words. Let's look at a few.
Abba: KJV Mr 14:36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty Alahim, The everlasting Father (Ahba), The Prince of Peace.
The word 'Abba' is from the Hebrew word 'Ahba' and KJV translates it into English as 'Abba' keeping the pronunication intact. Ahba means Father. Isn't it strange that the Greek word for father is 'pater' and the Greek manuscript keeps the word Abha unchanged and yet places pater after it: 'Abha pater'? In English it would translate as 'father father' and that's absurd.
Hosanna: Pslams 118:25. ‘ana’ Yahúah hoshi`ah na’ ‘ana’ Yahúah hats’lichah na’.
26. baruk haba’ b’shem Yahúah berak’nukem mibeyth Yahúah.
Ps 118:25 Save now, I beseech thee, (Hoshana) O Yahuah: O Yahuah I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Yahuah: we have blessed you out of the house of Yahuah.
Joh 12:13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of Yahuah (name replaced from the LORD as KJV portrays).
Amen: Numbers 5:22. uba’u hamayim ham’ar’rim ha’eleh b’me`ayik lats’both beten w’lan’pil yarek w’am’rah ha’ishah ‘amen ‘amen.
Nu 5:22 And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen.
1Jo 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
ephphatha: Mr 7:34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
Malachi 3:10. habi’u ‘eth-kal-hama`aser ‘el-beyth ha’otsar wihitereph b’beythi ub’chanuni na’ bazo’th ‘amar Yahúwah ts’ba’oth ‘im-lo’ ‘eph’tach lakem ‘eth ‘aruboth hashamayim wahariqothi lakem b’rakah `ad-b’li-day.
Mal3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this, says Yahuah of hosts, if I will not open (‘eph’tach) for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.
Corban: Mr 7:11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.
Lev 1:2. daber ‘el-b’ney Yis’ra’El w’amar’at ‘alehem ‘adam ki-yaq’rib mikem qar’ban laYahúah min-hab’hemah min-habaqar umin-hatso’n taq’ribu ‘eth-qar’ban’kem.
Lev 1:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering (qar'ban) unto Yahuah, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.
Raca: Mt 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire
Proverbs 12:11. `obed ‘ad’matho yis’ba`-lachem um’radeph reyq chasar-leb.
Pr 12:11 ¶ He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain(reyq) persons is void of understanding.
Eli Eli lama Sabachthani: (When Pharasees got it wrong how could Greek get this right? They got it wrong too and hence the English renders it as Eli Eli lama Sabachthani whereas the Messiah uttered Ahlay Ahlay Lamah Ayzabatanay)
When Yahusha uttered these words the Pharasees who were so well versed with Ktav Ashurit couldn't understand what he was saying and assumed Messiah was calling for help from Elijah. They couldn't grasp the pure Paleo Hebrew out from the lips of Yahusha
Mt 27:46 And about the ninth hour Yahusha cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My Alahim, my Alahim why hast thou forsaken me?
Mr 15:35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.
Mr 15:35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.
Let's look at Psalms 22:1 in Paleo Hebrew
Psalms 22:1 Ahlay Ahlay Lamah Ayzabatanay rachauq mayashauaytay dabaray shagatay
The Ketav Ashurit script from Hebrew Interlinear :
אֵלִ֣י אֵלִ֣י לָמָ֣ה עֲזַבְתָּ֑נִי
Hebrew reads from right to left: The Vowel points added to Psalms 22:1 gave the pronunciation as ’ê-lî ’ê-lî ‘ă-zaḇ-tā-nî; and that's how Pharasees would read Hebrew from Psalms 22:1. So when Yahusha uttered 'Ahlay Ahlay Lamah Ayzabatanay' they couldn't understand and thought he is calling Elijah for help. They didn't realize Yahusha was quoting and fulfilling Psalms 22:1.
Lastly it is assumed that Paul was well versed with Greek and hence wrote all his epistles in Greek. This is mere speculation. We can see evidence from Pauls epistles that he spoke and wrote in Hebrew.
1Co 10:1 ¶ Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
"Law and prophets" refers to the Old Testament Scriptures. Which culture, world-view, and mentality should prevail among True Worshipers today? A Greek-gentile heritage? Or the birthright of those grafted into the promised of Israel?
2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea
Paul also wrote the letter of Hebrews to the Hebrews. Just imagine Paul writing to the Jews in Greek. James was an apostle to the Jews, just imagine James writing to the Jews in Greek. It just doesn't fit and there is plenty of evidence from scriptures that they wrote in Hebrew.
Ac 22:1 ¶ Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you.
2 (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)
3 ¶ I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward Alahim, as ye all are this day.
Appointing elders in the church:
Ac 14:20 Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.
21 And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,
22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of Alahim.
23 And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to Yahusha on whom they believed.
Who were these elders whom the apostles appointed? Were they new Greek converts?
1Pe 5:1 ¶ The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of the Messiah, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
Peter exhorts the elders and says that he himself is also an elder who witnessed the sufferings of the Messiah. So these elders who were appointed were witnesses of the crucifixation and were Jews. John called himself as an elder
2Jo 1:1 ¶ The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;
An Overseer of the flock Paul said should not be a novice. Just imagine the Greeks who came into the church who were new converts taking over the church as elders, overseers and deacons, what a chaos it would be because they would not know the law of Alahim or would not have the teaching capability until they spent time searching and learning scriptures taught to them as Titus did who was a Greek and under Paul had learnt and studied the scriptures.
1Ti 3:6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
Paul claimed Ac 24:14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I Alahim of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:
Was Paul lying or had a double standard? No he was honest. He was a Jew and worshiped Alahim of his fathers believing all things which were written in the law and the prophets and taught it to the Gentiles.
The elders appointed were those laboring in the word and doctrine of the apostles. Paul quotes OT scripture from the law of Moses stating that the ox who treadeth out the corn it's mouth should not be muzzled, Paul also quoted Moses law stating not to receive an accusation against and elder but before two or three witnesses.
1Ti 5:17 ¶ Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.
19 Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.
De 25:4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn.
De 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
One who observed the law spiritually would never ask to change it to suit the Greeks or Gentiles.
Proof that the Hebrews took care of the church. Acts 6:1 records the Hellinists i.e Jews who spoke Greek murmured against the Hebrews because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
Ac 6:1 ¶ And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
The church continued STEDFASTLY in the APOSTLES DOCTRINE.
Ac 2:42 ¶ And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Timothy was both Greek and Jew but brought up by his mother in the Jewish custom. Paul commended the faith that was in Timothy's grandmother and his mother and which is in him now. Though his father was a Greek, his mother had brought him up in the Hebrew faith.
Ac 16:1 ¶ Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek:
2 Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.
3 Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek.
4 And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at Jerusalem.
In Acts 16:4 we have further proof that when Paul and those who followed him went through the cities they delivered the church the decrees to be kept that were ordained of the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.
2Ti 1:5 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
Titus was a Greek and spent a long time under Paul till he was discipled to understand the apostles doctrine and the scriptures that made him wise.
Tit 1:4 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from Alahim the Father and the Master Yahusha Messiah our Saviour.
5 ¶ For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
Ga 2:3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
Paul warns Titus to avoid genealogies, contentions and strivings about the law which shows Titus knew the law well.
Tit 3:9 ¶ But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
Paul 9 times mentions Titus when he wrote the epistle to the Corinthian church . Lastly the instance that Paul mentions where he took with him Titus to Jerusalem was of Acts 15 which shows that Titus was with Paul for a very long time before being ordained an elder of a church which Paul committed to his trust. There were no new converts who were Greeks who ever were ordained elders, bishops or deacons of the church.
There is so much of evidence of our Hebraic roots and unless one finds this one is lost in his sins because it takes him back to a greek gad Jesus who cannot save. The whole world is calling on the name of the beast and are wondering after the beast. My prayer is through this study and spiritual comparison the reader would see his journey back to the tents of Shem, being grafted into the olive tree from where we receive the golden oil.
For serious truth seekers you can may study the OT and NT Hebrew to see if what I say is true. There is a good online Paleo bible at
http://www.bayithamashiyach.com/Scriptures.html
Lastly let's read Rev 9
Re 9:7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.Re 9:8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
Re 9:11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.
These locusts from the bottomless pit who are Satan's emissaries have faces of men and hair of woman which shows that they distort the headship of Messiah by portraying a Greek messiah jesus which is the name of the beast. The king over these locusts has a name in Hebrew and in Greek. When the Greek culture i.e. a greek god portrayed by corrupt Rome has changed times and laws and has taken dominion deceiving the whole world the whole world wondered after the beast
Re 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
We are seeing prophecy fulfilled as the whole world marvels after a greek gad jesus which Rome portrays with long hair just as John saw in the vision the locusts having faces of men but long hair of women.
The Hebrew are not left behind in deception. They have forsaken the true and pure language for Ktav Ashurit which is pagan and hence when the Messiah came to his own they rejected him because they couldn't understand prophecy. We saw the proof that when Messiah fulfilled Psalms 22:1 by utterance, they couldn't understand the Hebrew that came from his lips and thought he called for Elijah for help. They went in an outward show of holiness by observing the law of Moses carnally.
1Co 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
The Woman (Covenant Israel) has to come under the headship of Messiah and be hid in him as his rib or else she outside Messiah will be the harlot. A carnal observance of the Nazarene vow wouldn't help them get close to Alahim but to believe on the Son of the Most High that will save them. The true Nazarene is Yahusha and all those who cling to him.
May Yahuah bless those who understand these things
