Col 2:2 that their hearts may be comforted, being been knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of the Aluahym and of the Father, and of the Mashiyach,
The greatest division among Yahudi (in renewed covenant) today is understanding the mystery of Aluahym. Since most of the Yahudi have come out of Christianity founded by the pagan Rome have carried some of the stuff from there like Trinity, Oneness ( as in one in persons as Oneness Pentecostals), Unitarinism (rooted in Judaism, not believing in the divinity of Mashiyach), Binitarinism (two gads Father and Son).
Being a Yahudi and having crossed over we must be open to truth and leave behind the Babylonian baggage in Constantines empire and come out clean examining every doctrine we hold and judging ourselves whether we are in the true Hebraic faith asking Yahusha for his guidance and help for he is our ONLY TEACHER.
Matt 23:8 “But do not be called Rabbi; for One is your Teacher Ha Mashiyach, and you are all brothers.”
When we read the Renewed Testament we must first look at the foundation of prophecy and the foundation is Mashiyach. The emissaries (apostles) and the prophets laid down the foundation and we are called to be built on that foundation i.e. the Mashiyach.
Eph 2:20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, the Mashiyach Yahusha Himself being the chief corner stone,
The Renewed Testament reveals and shows the fulfillment what the Old Testament stood in shadows and types. The Renewed Testament strengthens the Old Testament in glorifying Mashiyach showing that he is the living Thurah and in all of the muaedim (feasts), sacrifices, offerings etc we meet him and see him fulfilling each and every one of them. Hence our focus should be on Mashiyach and we must look at from where he came and what was his purpose to understand the mystery of Aluahym.
Eph 2:21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in Yahuah
If our sure foundation is Mashiyach then we are being fitted together growing into a holy temple in Yahuah or else we are simply trampling the outer court not being measured in the heykal (temple).
Rev 11:2 Leave out the court which is outside the temple and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Goyim (nations); and they shall tread under foot the holy city for forty-two months.
Therefore it’s important that we look at his existence and his substance because if we are grounded in him then his substance lives within us ......‘Mashiyach in you the hope of esteem’
Aluahym is a plural title which means ‘Mighty ones’. If the prophets and the emissaries (apostles) wrote this title in prophecy then it must have spiritual significance. There are also singular titles as ‘Aluah’, ‘Alay’, ‘Al’, ‘Alaynu’ etc which show his nearness/immanence.
Unless we understand his self-existence and what he became we will never arrive at truth.
The name Yahuah comes from the root word ‘hayah’ which means to be/become/come to pass
ŚָŚָŚ
H1961 hâyâh
haw-yaw'
A primitive root (compare H1933); to exist, that is, be or become, come to pass (always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary): - beacon, X altogether, be (-come, accomplished, committed, like), break, cause, come (to pass), continue, do, faint, fall, + follow, happen, X have, last, pertain, quit (one-) self, require, X use.
Yahuchanon presents Dabar Yahuah in John 1:1-2 and 1John 1:1.
John1:1 In the beginning was the Dabar, and the Dabar was with Aluahym, and the Dabar was Aluahym.
1Joh1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have handled, of the Dabar of Life .
The intangible and transendent Aluahym became immanent as he pierced into time,space and matter as he created.
The three levels seen in scripture are the arets (the earth) the shamayim (the heavens) and beyond the heavens called third heavens (unknown realm where Aluahym is unapproachable, intangible, substance unknown, unseen, untouched)
2Cor12:2 I know a man in the Mashiyach who fourteen years ago whether in the body I do not know,
or out of the body I do not know, the Aluahym knows such a man was caught up to the third.
2Cor12:3 And I know how such a man whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know,
the Aluahym knows;
2Cor12:4 how that was caught up into paradise and heard inexpressible words,
which a man is not permitted to speak
There is no word 'heaven' in 2 Corin 12:2 there but the translators added it becuase they all believe there are three heavens. But the word 'paradise; is used and is a different word from one used in Luke23:43 (in Luke the word gan-`Eden is used)
Eph 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Messiah, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
We see all the three in the passage above, the earth, the heaven and HIM (eternal). Alahim will gather in ONE all things in Messiah both which are in heaven and which are on earth IN HIM. The Revelation of Aluahym who was, and is and is to come.
Paul's catching up to the third and hearing the revelation is synonymous with John saying he was in the Spirit on the Yahuahs day.
Revelation 1:10-11 I was in the Spirit on the Yahuah's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, [11] Saying, I am Alaph and the Thu, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
In the same chapter John mentions he turned around to see who is it that spoke with him and he saw the Son of man
Re 1:12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
The invisible Aluahym (1 Tim 6:16) whom not even one has seen and not even one can approach because he dwells in an un approachable light is called the Most High and dwells above the heavens.
Ps 113:5 Who is like unto Yahuah our Aluahym, who dwelleth on high,
Ps 113:6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!
1 Tim 6:16 who alone has immortality and dwells in the light, which no one can approach unto; whom no one has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.
The same invisible Aluahym, transcendent and who is beyond all things pierced himself through his dabar thrusting himself into the doorway of ha shamayim first and then into the doorway of ha arets.
Heb4:12 For the dabar of Aluahym is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword,
and piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow,
and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
By his breath (Ruach) when he thrusted into the doorway of creation in the shamayim he uttered " Let there be light and there was light" Gen 1:3
Paul defines what this light was
2Cor4:6 For Aluahym, who said, Light shall shine out of darkness, is the One who has shone
in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of Aluahym in the face of the Mashiyach.
Light from Light, the unapproachable light (1 Tim6:16) would now shine through the face of the Mashiyach.
We have Genesis recording that the Sun, moon and stars were created on the 4th day of creation (Gen 1:16-19) and the whole of creation was lit up by the glory of Aluahym who had now pierced into the realm of ruach of prophecy to be revealed and manifested as Yahusha when the fullness of time would come.
But before the promised one would come he guarded everything by the Ruach of prophecy called Dabar. Yahuchanun introduces the journey of Dabar from 'barashaiyth (in the beginning) to being tabernacled in the flesh as Yahusha ha Mashiyach. A complete journey from transcendence thrusting through the shamayim (heavens) and then dwelling in the arets (earth) with man.
John 1:14 And the Dabar became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Dabar was made flesh and tabernacled with us. The Abh and the Son relationship is related to these two realms i.e. the shamayim and the arets. In transcendence his substance is unknown, unseen, intangible and is invisible and yet it pleased him to dwell in fullness bodily (Col 1:19,2:9).
Heb 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
Thus the Son (Bar) became the doorway (Dalet) to the eternal,invisible and intangible Aluahym . The Son now known as Yahusha is Dabar Yahuah who in the ruach of prophecy rode upon the cherubs and manifested through the mouths of the prophets revealing his name. Hence Yahuah became Yahusha (Yahuah is salvation).
Ps 18:10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
That's why in OT we see the cherubims with their wings overshadowing the mercy seat and when we read Acts 7:53 and Gal 3:19 we see the Thurah was given by the angels in the hands of the mediator. The Angel of Yahuah (Numbers 12:8) was a similitude of Yahuah shadowing the Mashiyach until he arrives.
The Mashiyach is Yaqoob's ladder
John1:51 And He said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you shall see the heavens opened
and the angels of Aluahym ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
The account of Ezekiel records Ha Shatan in the garden of Eden as the 'Covering cherub' where he stopped the pattern.
Eze28:12 Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre and say to him,
Thus says Adonay Yahuah, You seal the measure (stop the pattern), full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
Eze28:13 You were in Eden, the garden of Aluahym; Every precious stone was your covering:
the ruby, the topaz and the diamond; the beryl, the onyx and the jasper; the sapphire, the turquoise
and the emerald; And the gold, the workmanship of your tabrets and of your pipes, was in you.
On the day that you were created they were prepared.
Eze28:14 You were the anointed cherub who covers, and I placed you in the holy mountain of Aluahym;
You walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
He stopped the pattern to Adam and Eve causing the whole of mankind to be plunged into darkness.
Dabar: Dalet(doorway) Bet Resh -Bar: Son.
He is the image of the invisible Aluahym (Col 1:15) and the exact representation of his substance being achad in substance and not as person's of so called trinity gad head misrepresented by Rome.
Col 1:15 He is the image of the invisible Aluahym, the firstborn of all creation.
Eph 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Dabar of Aluahym.
The sword of the Ruach i.e. the Dabar pierced Aluahym and divided asunder his substance in manifesting in a body prepared for him with his very breath being the Ruach itself.
Heb 4:12 For the Dabar of Aluahym is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Re 1:16 And he had in his (Yahusha’s) right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
Re 19:15 And out of his (Yahusha’s) mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty Aluahym.
Re 19:21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him (Yahusha) that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
Heb 4:12- the same Dabar who is the sword of the Ruach pierces man where his joints and marrow are,dividing soul from ruach and making him naked and accountable before Aluahym (v 13)
The mystery of Father and Son is in relation to his creation and the Son is face to face with his creation revealing his journey from transcendence (invisiblity) to immanence (visibility) and is called Amanual which means ‘AL is with us’. In his self existence he is unapproachable and is no ones Father or Son. This relation had a beginning in relation to his creation.
The Son is the face of the Abh.
Ge 18:14 Pala Dabar Pala for Yahuah? At the time appointed (muaed) I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
Pala: pey (mouth) lamed (teach) alaph (strong)
Gen 18:14 prophetically : The mouth of AL which teaches dabar (the doorway leading to Mashiyach) is it too hard for Yahuah? At the appointed time I will return at this time of life and Sarah shall have a son.
From Sarah would come Yitsaq from whose loins would come Yisharal and from Yisharal the promised one i.e. Mashiyach and hence the returning at the time appointed according to 'the time of life' is prophetic of the visitation through Mashiyach and 'Pala Dabar Pala' according to the 'time of life'.
Gal4:4 But when the fullness of the time came, Aluahym sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under Thurah (Law),
Without the Son there is no Father and there is no Father without the Son. We are adopted as sons through the Sonship of Yahusha according to the time of life and he gives us the right to be called sons of Aluahym.
John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of Aluahym, even to those who believe in His name,
The same word ‘muaed’ is used for the appointed times of Yahuah (the feasts of Yisharal as outlined in Lev 23).
Jer 32:15 For thus says Yahuah of hosts, the AL of Yisrael, Houses and fields and vineyards shall again be bought in this land. Jer 32:16 After I had given the scroll of purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, then I prayed to Yahuah, saying, Jer 32:17 Ah Yahuah the Master! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! Dabar is not too hard (pala) for You,
The promise of the end of captivity is by Yahusha and the physical captivity of Yisharal by Chaldeans (Babylon) was a type of the spiritual bondage captivity by Mystery Babylon which only Yahusha can deliver. Hence the YirmeYahu (Jeremiah) passages where Yahuah says that 'houses and fields and vineyards shall again be bought in this land' and the 'scroll of purchase' is prophetic of Yahusha because he is the only one who buys back our captivity from Mystery Babylon.
Matt 19:24 “Again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of Aluahym.” Matt 19:25 When the disciples heard this, they were very astonished and said, Then who can be saved? Matt 19:26 And looking at them Yahusha said to them, “With people this is impossible (pala), but with Aluahym dabar is possible (yi pala).”
Speaking of the 'Gamal entering into the eye of the needle' i.e. the Creator himself bending down entering the doorway of his creation, Yahusha said it is easier for the Creator to bend down and enter into his creation than for a rich man (one who thinks he is rich in covenant but is bankrupt, as Yisharal nation was) to enter into the kingdom of Alahym. The disciples did not understand at that time what this prophetic utterance was and took it literally but Yahusha's words are spirit and they are life. He said with men this is too hard but with Aluahym 'the doorway to Bar (Son) ' (dabar) is not too hard.
Aluahym’s faithfulness can be seen in the following verse in guarding Sarah by his Dabar because from her was promised the seed which is Yahusha our Yahuah.
We see two instances where Abraham in his sojourning tells Pharaoh and Abimelech that Sarah is his sister because he feared they would kill him if he told them she was his wife because she was beautiful to behold. Aluahym guarded Sarah by his ‘dabar’. KJV and other English translations don’t mention the word and omits it but just before ‘Sarah’ the word ‘dabar’ is mentioned. Aluahym was guarding Sarah because through her lineage his Son would come forth.
Ge 12:15 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.16 And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses, and camels. 17 And Yahuah plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of <dabar> Sarai Abram's wife.
Ge 20:18 For Yahuah had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech,because of <dabar> Sarah Abraham's wife.
Ga 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Mashiyach.17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of Aluahym in Messiah, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
Ge 22:1 ¶ And it came to pass following dabar that Aluahym did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am. Ge 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
Ge 22:16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith Yahuah, for because thou hast done this thing (dabar), and hast not withheld thy son, thine only
“ ..because thou has done dabar…”
By willing to sacrifice his only son ‘ABRAHAM DID DABAR’. He displayed Aluahym’s character of deep love of giving his only son as a sacrifice. Abraham saw this promise afar off and named the place where he offered the ram in the place of his son as ‘Yahuah Yarah’
Ge 22:13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son. 14 And Abraham called the name of that place Yahuah Yaraha: as it is said to this day, In the mount of Yahuah it shall be seen.
Heb 11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, 18 Of whom it was said, That in Yitzack shall thy seed be called: 19 Accounting that Aluahym was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
We see Aluahym’s Sovereignty in choosing for Yitzack (Issac) a wife before even Abraham sent his servant to bring her for his son. Aluahym ensured his ‘dabar’ reached his intended purpose fulfilling his will thus preserving Abraham’s lineage from where his Son would come forth.
Ge 22:20 ¶ And it came to pass following dabar, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;21 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,22 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel. 23 And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
This is the testimony Aluahym gave of his Son and we must receive his testimony
The very first word in Scriptures testifies of the Son. ‘Barashaiyth’: Bar: Son, Alaph: strong, Shin: Consumed, Yod: Hand, Thu: Stake. Put together ‘The Son who was strong was consumed with his hands on the stake’
For details on a detailed study on the word ‘Bar’ you may read it here :
1Joh 5:6 This is he that came by water and blood , Yahusha the Mashiyach; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
1Joh 5:8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Ruach (Spirit) and the water and the blood; and these three agree in one.
2Cor3:17 Now the Master is the Spirit (Ruach), and where the Spirit of the Master is, there is liberty.
The Master Yahusha is the Ruach, the same Ruach who rode the cherubs as YAHUAH
The three bearing witness on earth is Yahuah who is become Yahusha, the water and the blood (water and blood are elements of the womb) showing the one born from the womb was the only hope to take his creation and enjoin it back to Aluahym from where he proceeded and came forth.
John 19:34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out. John 19:35 And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.
When we read Col 1:15-17 we read that Messiah is the firstborn of every creature and by him were all things created that are in heaven and earth visible and invisible. By looking at these stand alone passages many conclude wrongly and that's why we have various false besorah’s (gospel's) floating around giving Messiah an image which he is not.
Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible Aluahym, the firstborn of every creature: Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
When we understand how the sword of the Ruach i.e. The Dabar of Aluahym pierced himself in externalizing a Son coming from his own substance and bearing his substance in a body prepared for him and coming face to face with creation with the fullness of divinity bodily can we understand how he is before all things, and how by him all things consist. He was in the beginning (barashaiyth) but the substance was unknown, unrealized, unseen, unheard, insivible, untouched/examined until he came face to face with creation. That’s exactly what Yahuchanon says in 1 John 1:1
John 20:27 Then He said to Thomas, “Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into My side; (from his side had come out water and blood) and do not be unbelieving, but believing.” John 20:28 Thomas answered and said to Him, my Master and my Alahay!
From Adam’s side came out Eve who was of his flesh and of his bones. From Mashiyach’s side came out his bride i.e. the assembly who are of his flesh and of his bones. When his substance was examined ‘Thuma’ (Thomas) confessed “My Master and my Alahay”.
Gen 2:22 Yahuah Aluahym fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.Gen 2:23 The man said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; for this shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of man.
Eph 5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
1Joh 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have handled, of the Dabar of Life. 1Joh 1:2 for the life was manifested, and we have seen it and bear witness, and show unto you the eternal life, which was with the Abh (Father), and was manifested unto us
John 20:29 Yahusha said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.
We see through the eyes of faith.
Heb11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Heb 11:2 For by it the elders gained approval.
The elders/fathers saw the promise of his coming and welcomed it and confessed they were pilgrims and sojourners on this earth.
Once we have understood this truth we can now understand why Aluahym said “ Let us make man in our image ...”
Gen 1:26 Then Aluahym said, Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.
Aluahym made the doorway to creation (Dalet) through the Ruach as Yahuah who through his prophets spoke of what he himself would become. Yahuah comes from the root word 'hayah' which means 'to be/to become'.
Aluahym's Bar: Son (Dabar) relates everything back to him.
Eph 1:9 He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Him. Eph 1:10 that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times he might gather together in one all things in the Mashiyach, both which are in the heavens and which are on the earth; EVEN IN HIM.
Col 1:19 For it pleased (the Abh) that in him (Yahusha) 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 Abh testifies that his Son is Aluahym and must be worshiped
Heb 1:6 And when He Alpah Thu again brings the firstborn into the world, He says, And let all the angels of Aluahym worship Him.
The writer of Hebrews refers to the world to come
Heb 2:5 For to yad-hamal’akiym He did not put in subjection the world to come, concerning which we speak.
Heb 1:8 But of the Son He says, Your throne, O Aluahym, is forever and ever, and the scepter of righteousness is the scepter of His kingdom. Heb 1:9 You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; therefore Aluahym Alahyak, has anointed you with the oil (shemen: H8081) of gladness above your enjoined ones (chabaryak).
chabaryak comes from the word chaber H2270 which is from the root verb chabar H2266 which means ‘joined’
shemen H8081 means ‘oil’ which was used in sacrifices of Old Testament.
Ex 25:6 Oil (shemen) for the light, spices for anointing oil (shemen), and for sweet incense,
Alahyak: AL (short form for Aluahym) AH (Hey) Ya (Yod) Kaph (Open)
Put together ‘Al’s hand opened’ (to whom has the arm of Yahuah revealed?)
Aluahym Alahyak (Al’s hand opened) has anointed him with shemen (oil) above those enjoined with him (i.e. his elect). To understand this we must go to Abraham where he was tested according to dabar to offer up Yitzack and ‘Abraham did dabar’ and named the place Yahuah Yarah which means IN THE MOUNT OF YAHUAH (above/high place of Yahuah) it will be seen (the RAM/LAMB). He was placed above his enjoined ones i.e. to take their death penalty. We were the promised ones as Yitzack was.
Isa 2:2 Now it shall come to pass in the last days the mountain of the house of Yahuah shall be established as the chief of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all the nations shall stream to it.
Mic 4:1 And it shall come about in the last days that the mountain of the house of Yahuah shall be established on the top of the mountains. It shall be raised above the hills, and the peoples shall stream to it.
The mystery has been revealed. The Son is Dabar Yahuah. He is the one seen. Everything was made by him and for him to be related back to the Abh from where he came out when he was pierced by the Dabar who is the sword of the Ruach.
