There is a reason as to why there are genealogies in scripture and many a times when we read Chronicles and other portions in scripture mentioning a descendancy through fathers we tend to skip through those passages as our human minds cannot comprehend the information. But as sons of Yahuah we must study every portion of it in comparing it with other scriptures to see the beautiful weaving of a witness Yahuah has done in His word showing us his faithfulness in our redemption. In this study we will see the second witness in scriptures bearing witness to Mashiyach our Yahuah as he is the promised seed and everything originates from him and completes in him. In this study we will see just how our Yahusha is a Prophet, Priest and King and we in him are the Royal Priesthood.
1Pe 2:9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a set-apart nation, a people for a possession, that you should proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light,
We see that when Yaaqob gave the barakath to his 12 sons he mentioned the promise of the coming of Mashiyach through Yahudah and Yahusaph
Gen 49:8 “You, Yehuḏah, your brothers praise you; your hand is on the neck of your enemies; your father’s children bow down before you.
Gen 49:9 “Yehuḏah is a lion’s cub; from the prey you have gone up, my son! He bowed down, he crouched like a lion. And like a lion, who does rouse him?
Gen 49:10 “The sceptre shall not turn aside from Yehuḏah, nor a Lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh comes, and to Him is the obedience of peoples.
Gen 49:22 “Yosĕph is an offshoot of a fruit-bearing tree, an offshoot of a fruit-bearing tree by a fountain, his branches run over a wall.
Gen 49:23 “And the archers have bitterly grieved him, shot at him and hated him.
Gen 49:24 “But his bow remained in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the Mighty One of Yaʽaqoḇ – from there is the Shepherd, the Stone of Yisra’ĕl –
In Chapter 48 we see just how Yahusaph's son Ephrayim was placed before Menasheh by Yaaqob placing his right hand on his head
Gen 48:17 And when Yosĕph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephrayim, it was evil in his eyes; and he took hold of his father’s hand to remove it from the head of Ephrayim to the head of Menashsheh.
Gen 48:18 And Yosĕph said to his father, “Not so, my father, for this one is the first-born, put your right hand on his head.”
Gen 48:19 But his father refused and said, “I know, my son, I know. He also becomes a people, and he also is great. And yet, his younger brother is greater than he, and his seed is to become the completeness of the nations.”
Gen 48:20 And he blessed them on that day, saying, “In you Yisra’ĕl shall bless, saying, ‘Elohim make you as Ephrayim and as Menashsheh!’ ” Thus he put Ephrayim before Menashsheh.
Ephrayim became the firstborn and received the barakath of the first born. Yahuah uses his name interchangeably in scriptures as a representation of all the 12 tribes of Yasharal and I have touched based in detail on this in my study 'Eprathites of Beyth Lacham'
Jer 31:9 “With weeping they shall come, and with their prayers I bring them. I shall make them walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way in which they do not stumble. For I shall be a Father to Yisra’ĕl, and Ephrayim – he is My first-born.
Moreover Yahuah also promised an eternal priesthood which has no beginning and an end of Mashiyach according to the order of Maskitsedeq
Psa 110:4 יהוה has sworn and does not relent, “You are a priest forever According to the order/dabar of Malkitseḏeq.”
Summary:
We were brother's of the same household, but we/Yasharal of the Flesh were dead Spiritually, without Mashayakh. We were the dead brother, and Yahusha our brother gave seed to the Widow, who is us. That His name might not be cut off, but continue Spiritually as He gave His Life, the only Seed, which had Spiritual Life within it, to bear forth after its kind. To keep His name alive, in Yasharal of the Ruakh. For we were the Dead Brother in Transgression and also the Widow who needed the Seed of our Elder Brother and Firstborn. Yahusha performed the Turah of raising up a Son for the Widow who was us. He is the Firstborn amongst many brother's, and as He said we/Yasharal of the Ruakh are His Firstborn. Only by His death and Rising, could He fulfill the Turah of the Dead Brother! That Seed is Mashayakh and the Life within it is Eternal; no longer is Yasharal a Widow, but she has received the Only Seed of the Firstborn Brother, to bring Life back to her barren Womb, that she will give birth in turn to many sons and daughters now in the exact image and likeness of the Firstborn. For the garments of her Widowhood have been removed. The Brother was to take his brothers Widow as a wife. The only way Yahusha could take us as His wife was to die, and by His own blood cleanse us from our Spiritual Whoredom, making us a Virgin Daughter and Bride! Only He could Heal the Breach of His Daughter! Thus, Yasharal's name is not blotted out!

Moreover Yahuah also promised an eternal priesthood which has no beginning and an end of Mashiyach according to the order of Maskitsedeq
Psa 110:4 יהוה has sworn and does not relent, “You are a priest forever According to the order/dabar of Malkitseḏeq.”
We all know the
historical account of Yahudah who had 3 sons Er, Onan and Shalah. Er was evil
and Yahuah killed him and he died childless. His brother Onan was asked to take
his brother’s wife as his and while it came to be that he had to give seed to
his dead brother he emitted his semen on the ground and this was evil and
Yahuah killed him too. Shalah was very
young so Yahudah told his daughter in law to wait until Shalah grows older and
he would give him to be her husband. But Yahudah forgot his promise and hence
Tamar his daughter in law pretended to be a harlot and got impregnated by her
father in law Yahudah and twins were in her womb.
Gen
38:6 And Yahudah took a woman for Er his firstborn, whose name was
Tamar.
Gen
38:7 And Er, Yahudah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of YAHUAH; and YAHUAH slew him.
Gen
38:8 And Yahudah said unto Onan, Go in unto your brother's woman, and marry
her, and raise up seed to your brother.
Gen
38:9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass,
when he went in unto his brother's woman, that he spilled it on the
ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.
Gen
38:10 And the thing which he did displeased YAHUAH: wherefore he slew him
also.
Gen
38:11 Then said Yahudah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at your
father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest perchance he die
also, as his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's
house.
Gen 38:27 And it came to be, at the time for giving
birth, that see, twins were in her(Tamar’s) womb.
Gen
38:28 And it came to be, when she was giving birth,
that the one put out his hand. And the midwife took a scarlet thread/shanay H8144 and bound it on his
hand, saying, “This one came out first/rashun H7223.”
Gen 38:29 And it came to be, as he drew back/shub H7725 his hand, that see,
his brother came out! And she said, “How did you break through/parats H6555? This breach/parats H6555 be upon you!” So his name was called Perets/H6557.
Gen 38:30 And afterward his brother came out who had
the scarlet thread/shanay H8144 on his hand. So his name was called Zarach/H2226.
H8559 Tamar is from H8558 which means ‘erect/palm tree’.
H3063 Yahudah comes from two root words ‘Yahu’ which is a short form
for the name ‘Yahuah’ and ‘yadah’ H3034 which means to worship with extended
hands (yad: hand is a root word in yadah)
The erect/palm tree (Tamar) getting seed from her Father in Law (Cham:
H2524) has a deep ruach meaning hidden
Gen
38:13 And it was told Tamar/H8559, saying, Behold your father in law/cham H2524 goes up to Timnah/H8553 to shear/gazaz H1494 his sheep/tsaun H6629.
Cham H2524:
Timnah H8553:
Gazaz H1494:
Tsaun H6629:
The tsaun/sheep had the ability/power to bear the
wickedness/vanity of mankind as a sin offering. The tsad shows the side i.e. a
pointing to the altar where the sheep is sacrificed for Yasharal’s wickedness.
While the blood of bulls, goats/sheep could not atone for Yasharal’s sins and
stood in types, it points to the sacrifice of Yahusha ha Mashiyach who is the
fulfillment of the type, He is the one who went as a sheep before the
gazaz/shearers and opened not his mouth. Tsan/Tsun is a root word is ‘Tsayun
(Tsiyon/Zion) H6726 from H6725’ and Tsayun means ‘sign/title/waymark’ or a
‘guiding pillar’
Psa
2:6 Yet have I set my King upon my Set-Apart hill of Tsiyon.
Psa
2:7 I will declare the decree: YAHUAH has said unto me, You are my
Son; this day have I begotten you.
When Abraham went to sacrifice Yitshaq on Mount Moriah he saw a ram
caught with its horns in the thickets and offered it in place of his son
Yitshaq and he named the place ‘Yahuah Yarah’ which means ‘In the mount Yahuah
will be seen’. The King set on the Set-Apart place of Tsiyon is Yahusha ha
Mashiyach as he was the sheep/ram who was sacrificed in place of Abraham’s promised
seed.
In Gen 38:13 we read it was told Tamar that her cham/father in law was
going to Timnah/a weighed out portion to gazaz/shear his tsaun/sheep
We see a picture of Tamar/erect or upright Palm tree intervening the
fence which held the water and the blood/cham (also meaning father in law), the
water and blood which was held back would have cut off the sheep belonging to
Tsiyon but she took the seed into her womb from the hands that would be
extended i.e. Yahu yadah (Yahudah)
In the Ruach Haykal/Temple Ezekiel saw on the walls of the Most
Set-Apart place all around Tamar/palm tree between the two faces of a Kerub
which had a face of a man and a face of a lion.
Eze
41:18 And it was made with keruḇim and palm trees, and a palm tree between keruḇ and keruḇ. A keruḇ had two faces,
Eze
41:19 so that the face of a man was
toward a palm tree on one side, and the face of a young lion toward a palm tree
on the other side – made on all the
House all around.
Hence, we see Tamar
intervening in giving twins Perets and Zarach which we will see in a while.
It became a custom in Yasharal to barak women in the lineage of Yahudah
with a specific barakath prophetically as we see done to Ruth.
Rth 4:11 And all the people
that were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses.
YAHUAH make את eth-the woman
(Ruth) that is come into your house like Rachel
and like Le’ah, which two did build the house of Yashar’el:
and do you worthily in Ephrathah, and be famous in Beyt Lechem:
Rth
4:12 And let your house be like the house of
Perets, whom Tamar bore unto Yahudah, of the seed which YAHUAH shall give you
of this young woman.
Rth 4:18 Now these are
the generations of Perets: Perets
begat את eth-Chetsron,
Rth 4:19 And Chetsron begat את eth-Ram, and Ram begat את eth-Ammiynadab,
Rth 4:20 And Ammiynadab begat את eth-Nachshon, and Nachshon begat את eth-Salmah,
Rth 4:21 And Salmah begat את eth-Bo`az, and Bo`az begat את eth-Obed,
Rth 4:22 And Obed begat את eth-Yishai, and Yishai begat את eth-David.
The Mashiyach came
from the lineage of Perets
Mat 1:2 Abraham begat את eth-Yitschaq; and Yitschaq begat את eth-Ya`aqob; and Ya`aqob begat את eth-Yahudah and את
eth-his brethren;
Mat 1:3 And Yahudah begat את eth-Perets and את
eth-Zerach of Tamar; and Perets begat את
eth-Chetsron; and Chetsron begat את
eth-Aram;
Mat 1:4 And Aram begat את eth-Ammiynadab; and Ammiynadab begat את eth-Nachshon; and Nachshon begat את eth-Salmah;
Mat 1:5 And Salmah begat את eth-Bo`az of Rachab; and Bo`az begat את eth-Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat את eth-Yishai;
Mat 1:6 And Yishai begat את eth-David the king; and David the king begat את eth-Shalomah of her that had been the woman of Uriyahu;
Mat 1:7 And Shalomah begat את eth-Rechab`am; and Rech ab`am begat את eth-Abiyahu; and Abiyahu begat את eth-Aca;
Mat 1:8 And Aca begat את eth-Yahushaphat; and Yahushaphat begat את eth-Yoram; and Yoram begat את eth Uzziyahu;
Mat 1:9 And Uzziyahu begat את eth-Yotham; and Yotham begat את eth-Achaz; and Achaz begat את eth-Yechizqiyahu;
Mat 1:10 And Yechizqiyahu
begat את eth-Men ashsheh; and Menashsheh begat את
eth-Amon; and Amon begat את
eth-Yo’shiyahu;
Mat 1:11 And Yo’shiyahu begat את eth-Yekonyahu and את eth-his brethren, about the time they were carried away to
Babel:
Mat 1:12 And after they were
brought to Babel, Yekonyahu את eth begat She’altiy’el; and She’altiy’el begat את eth-Zerubbavel;
Mat 1:13 And Zerubbavel begat
את eth-Abiyhud; and Abiyhud begat את eth-Elyaqiym; and Elyaqiym begat את eth Azzur;
Mat 1:14 And Azzur begat את eth-Tsadoq; and Tsadoq begat את eth-Yoqiym; and Yoqiym begat את eth-El’ayil;
Mat 1:15 And El’ayil begat את eth-El`azar; and El`azar begat את eth-Matthan; and Matthan begat את eth-Ya`aqob;
Mat 1:16 And Ya`aqob begat את eth-Yoceph the father of Miryam, of whom was born YAHUSHA, who is called MASHIACH.
But wasn’t the
scarlet thread tied on the hand of Zarach and not on Perets? Perets means
‘breach’ which means to ‘burst forth and come’
The names of the
sons of Perets and Zarach reveal the concealed plan of Yahuah
Perets:
Rth 4:18 Now these are
the generations of Perets: Perets begat
את eth-Chetsron,
Rth 4:19 And Chetsron begat את eth-Ram, and Ram begat את eth-Ammiynadab,
Rth 4:20 And Ammiynadab begat את eth-Nachshon, and Nachshon begat את eth-Shalmun,
Rth 4:21 And Shalmun begat את eth-Bo`az, and Bo`az begat את eth-Obed,
Rth 4:22 And Obed begat את eth-Yishai, and Yishai begat את eth-David.
Chetsron H2696: from H2691 which means
‘courtyard’
Ram H7410: from
H7311 which means ‘exalt/extol’
Amyanadab H5992: from ‘Am’ H5971 which
means ‘nation/people’ & nadab H5068 which means ‘offer freely’ i.e. a
nation that offers freely
Nachshun H5177: from H5172 nachash which
means one who ‘enchants/whispers/divine’
Shalmun H8012: from ‘shalmah’ which
means ‘garment/raiment’
Boaz H1162: from Beyt/House ‘az’ which means ‘strong’.
House that is strong
Obed H5744: from H5647 ‘abad/servant’. Obed means ‘serving’
Yishai H3448: means
‘extant/enduring/surviving/abiding’
Daud H1732: from H1730 ‘dad/dud’ which means
‘beloved/friend/lover’. Daud means ‘loving’
To Daud was made
the promise that his throne will be established forever. The names from Perets
unto Daud reveal the exalted courtyard in which people will freely offer
wearing a garment of divine (ephod) and the house would be strong in which his
beloved will be serving enduring/abiding continually.
Perets had another
son Chamul which we will not discuss as we are only looking at from where
Mashiyach sprang forth and also are looking at Tamar’s seed representation
Zarach:
Zarach was Peret’s
brother who had put out his hand and the midwife had put a scarlet thread on
his hand and it says in English that he drew back his hand. The word ‘shub’ actually means ‘to turn’.
Park this word as of now, we will understand what it means when we have seen
the names of the sons of Zarach.
1Ch 2:6 And the sons of Zerach;
Zimriy, and Eythan, and Heyman, and Kalkol, and Dara: five of them in all.
Zimriy H2174: from ‘zamar’ H2167 which
means ‘music/sing praises/psalms’ and Zimriy means ‘my music’
Aythan H387: from H386 which means
‘Continue/Permanent/Enduring’
Hayman H1968: means ‘hay/behold’
‘yaman’ H3231 which means ‘take the right-hand side’. His name also is a
variant of ‘Aman’ which means ‘faithful’
Kalkol H3633: ‘Kal’ means
‘complete/whole’. Kalkol means ‘making whole’
Dara/Darda H1873: means ‘the arm’
Zerach means
‘rising’. The five sons of Zerach show ‘My music which is continually rising
causing to take the right-hand side, making whole, causing to see the arm’.
Turah is represented by the 5 scrolls. The Turah has the scarlet thread of
redemption which witnesses the breaking forth/perets of the seed. The hand/yad
of Zerach/rising turned/shub to the right path in redemption making way to the
one who was to come forth i.e. the ha Mashiyach. The extended hands of worship
(Yahudah) is seen rising to exalt Yahusha ha Mashiyach.
1Ki 4:30 And Shelomoh’s
wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the men of the East and all the wisdom of
Mitsrayim.
1Ki
4:31 For he was wiser than all men, than Ěythan the Azarachay, and Hĕman, and
Kalkol, and Darda, the sons of Machol/dancing H4235. And his name was in
all the nations round about.
If you notice 4 of
the names Eythan, Hayman, Kalkol and Darda are named to be wise men, Shelemoh
the son of Daud was wiser than them. We have Heman’s Psalm 88 recorded, the
same Heman who was the descendant of Zerach as he is mentioned as
‘Azarachay’
Psa
88:1 A Song or
Mizmor of the sons of Qorach,
to the chief Musician upon Machalath Leannoth, Maskiyl of Heyman the Azarachay. - O YAHUAH
ELOHAI of my yeshu`ah (salvation), I have cried day and night before
you:
We have Eythan’s
Psalm recorded as Psalms 89, the same Eythan who was the descendant of Zerach
as he is mentioned here as ‘Azarachy’
Psa
89:1 Maskiyl of Eythan the Ezrachiy. - I WILL sing of
the mercies of YAHUAH forever: with my mouth will I make known your
faithfulness to all generations.
The Septuagint translation into Greek translates Ezrachiy to Israelite, this is a scribal error as the translators couldn't comprehend how these Levites Heyman and Eythan who stood during David's time could be descendants of Zerach the son of Yahudah.
Thus, we see the
extended hands in praise, the hand on which the scarlet thread was tied to.
But weren’t only Levi’s sons promised these
offices and no other tribe in Yasharal?
We see in 1Chro 6:33
this Heyman who stood at the time of David and Shelemoh was a Qohathite i.e.
from the lineage of Levi and hence we have a recorded distinction between the
sons of Zerach and sons of Qohath and Merari but at the same time the great
grandson of Qohath i.e. Heyman and the great grandson of Merari i.e. Eythan are
called seed of Zarach/Zerah the twin son of Yahudah through Tamar his
daughter-in-law
1Ch
6:32 And they ministered before the dwelling place of the Tabernacle of the
assembly with singing, until Shalomah had built את eth-the house of YAHUAH in
Yerushalayim: and then they waited on their office according to their
order.
1Ch
6:33 And these are they that waited with their children. Of the sons of the Qohathiym: Heyman a
singer, the son of Yo’el, the son of Shemu’el,
1Ch
6:34 The son of Elqanah, the son
of Yerocham, the son of Eliy’el, the son of Toach,
1Ch
6:35 The son of Tsuph, the son of Elqanah, the son of Machath, the son of
Amasai,
1Ch
6:36 The son of Elqanah, the son of Yo’el, the son of Azaryahu, the son of Tsephanyahu,
1Ch
6:37 The son of Tachath, the son of Acciyr, the son of Evyacaph, the son of
Qorach,
1Ch
6:38 The son of Yitshar, the son of
Qohath, the son of Leviy, the son of Yashar’el.
Let’s read 1Kings
4:30-31 again…
1Ki 4:30 And Shelomoh’s
wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the men of the East and all the wisdom of
Mitsrayim.
1Ki
4:31 For he was wiser than all men, than Ěythan the Azarachay, and Hĕman, and
Kalkol, and Darda, the sons of Machol/dancing H4235. And his name was in
all the nations round about.
In comparison to
Psalms 88 & 89 verses 1 we see Eythan and Heman were both Azarachay i.e.
descendants of Zerach. Also, this Eythan is also known as Yeduthun the chief
musician
H250 Ezrachiy/Azarachay: descendants of Zerach: - Ezrahite.
But we see their
father mentioned here is named as Machol which means ‘dancing’ which is a
variant of the name Zarach as Zarach would rise in worshiping Mashiyach. So, it
is evident that the 5 sons of Zerach represented the extended hands in worship
of Yahuah as it says in the renewed covenant as singing Pslams, Hyms and
Spiritual songs unto Yahuah.
Exo
6:16 And these are the names of the sons of Leviy according to their
generations; Gershon, and Qohath, and
Merariy: and the years of the life of Leviy were a hundred thirty
and seven years.
Gershon, Qohath
and Merariy were brothers (sons of Levi) and 1 Chro 6:33-48 ties Heyman to be
Qohath’s seed and Eythan to Merari’s seed. Eythan is listed as son of Qushayahu
in 1 Chro 15:17, son of Qiyshiy in 1Chro 6:44 where Qushayahu and Qishiy are
just variants of the same name. Infact 1 Chro 6:44-47 clearly ties him to Machalay
son of Mushi, son of Merari, son of Levi (also see 1 Chro 23:23)
1Ch
6:33 And these are they that waited with their children. Of the sons of the Qohathiym: Heyman a
singer, the son of Yo’el, the son of Shemu’el…….
1Ch
6:38 The son of Yitshar, the son of
Qohath, the son of Leviy, the son of Yashar’el.
1Ch
15:17 So the Leviyiym appointed את eth Heyman the son of Yo’el; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berekyahu;
and of the sons of Merariy their brethren Eythan the son of Qushayahu;
1Ch
6:44 And their brethren the sons of Merariy stood on the left hand: Eythan the son of Qiyshiy, the son of Abdiy, the son of Malluk,
1Ch
6:45 The son of Chashavyahu, the son of Amatsyahu, the son of Chilqiyahu,
1Ch
6:46 The son of Amtsiy, the son of Baniy, the son of Shemer,
1Ch 6:47 The son of Machliy, the son of Mushiy, the son of Merariy, the son of
Leviy.
1Ch
23:21 The sons of Merariy; Machliy, and Mushiy. The sons of Machliy; El`azar, and Qiysh.
1Ch
23:22 And El`azar died, and had no sons, but daughters: and their brethren
the sons of Qiysh took them.
1Ch 23:23 The sons of Mushiy; Machliy, and Eder, and Yeriymoth, three.
1Ch
23:24 These were the sons of Leviy after the house of their fathers; even
the chief of the fathers, as they were counted by number of names by their
polls, that did the work for the service of the house of YAHUAH, from the age
of twenty years and upward.
Hence 1Kings 4:31 is
a comparison of Shelemoh to sons of Zerach and not Levi’s seed.
1Ki
4:31 For he was wiser than all men, than Ěythan the Azarachay, and Hĕman, and
Kalkol, and Darda, the sons of Machol/dancing H4235. And his name was in
all the nations round about.
All this seems to
be a contradiction in the first blush as we see Heyman tied to Qohath lineage
and Eythan tied to Merari lineage and we saw Qohath and Merari were brothers as
they were sons of Levi, but the father is listed here as Machol in 1Kings 4:31.
This confusion will remain if we don’t see two possibilities:
1)
a
prophetic tie up between the sons of Zerach and sons of Levi or else it will be
very confusing as to why they are called Azacharay i.e. descendants of Zerach
who was a son of Yahudah in Psalms 88 & 89? That’s because these Psalms
were written by the sons of Levi in the prophetic office of Zerach’s seed. Zarach
also named as Machol was the son of Yahudah and is prophetically placed here. We
saw the lineage of Heyman was from Qohath and Eythan was from Merari.
2)
Also,
a tie up in intermarriage between Levites and sons of Yahudah bringing forth
Heyman and Eythan, descendants of Levi but also named as Azarachay. Scriptures seem
silent on this in the first blush; hence, we must look up in comparing
scriptures to derive truth.
Jdg
17:7 And there was a young man out of Beyt Lechem Yahudah of the family of Yahudah, who was a
Leviyiy, and he sojourned there.
The scroll of Judges shows us the result of intermarriage between
Yahudites and Levites as seen in the scripture above. If you recollect Yaaqob
and his 11 sons went up to Mitsrayim to Yahusaph and their children multiplied
there abundantly and there was no recorded genealogy as long as they were in
Mitsrayim. The only genealogy recorded was after Masha took their census post
them coming out of Mitsrayim. Hence Yahudah along with his sons Perets and
Zerach and their sons were in Mitsrayim in the house of bondage until their
death.
Merari lineage:
‘Machalay’ was a son
of Merari and also a son of Mushi (son of Merari). Machalay means ‘Sick’ and
Merari means ‘Bitter’. Also, Kalkol and Darda were sons of Zerah/Zarach and not
from Levitical lineage. Their father here is mentioned as Machol and a synonym
for Zerach and means ‘dancing’.
‘Azarachay means
Alaph/I will Zarachay/raise you’ where Zarach/Zerah means ‘Rise/Rising’. Hence,
Zerach would prophetically rise in the extended hand in worship and speaks
prophetically of the witness of the resurrection of Mashiyach.
Psalms 88 & 89
are ‘Maschil’s’ H4905 which has the root word H7919 ‘sakal’ which means
‘Understanding/Wise’. 13 times scripture records the word ‘Maschil’ H4905 and
each time is mentioned in the Psalms and means a
pondering/instructiveness/being thoughtful/understanding/contemplation.
Example: A Psalm of Dawid. A contemplation/maschil H4905. Ps32:1 Blessed is he whose
transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered!
Psa
42:1 To the chief Musician, A contemplation/maschil H4905, of the sons of Qorach. - AS the
deer pants after the water brooks, so pants my soul after you, O ELOHIYM.
When we look
closer to Psalms 88:1 we read ‘of the sons of Korah’ which clears the air that
Heyman was a direct descendant of Korah the grandson of Qohath and the writer
of this Psalm sung by him and his brothers. The Psalm says of the ‘sons of
Korah’ to the chief musician and the ones standing as chief musicians were
Asaph great grandson of Gershom, Heyman the great grandson of Qohath and
Yeduthun/Eythan great grandson of Merari.
1Ch
15:17 So the Leviyiym appointed את eth Heyman the son of Yo’el; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berekyahu;
and of the sons of Merariy their brethren, Eythan
the son of Qushayahu;
The Chief musicians:
1Ch 6:31 And these are they whom Daviyd set over the service of song in
the house of YAHUAH, after that the Ark had rest.
1Ch 6:32 And they ministered before the dwelling place of the Tabernacle of the
assembly with singing, until Shalomah had built את eth-the house of YAHUAH in
Yerushalayim: and then they waited on their office according to their
order.
Heyman: In prophet Shemuel’s lineage unto Qohath
1Ch
6:33 And these are they that waited with their children. Of the sons of the Qohathiym: Heyman a
singer, the son of Yo’el, the son of Shemu’el,
1Ch
6:34 The son of Elqanah, the son of Yerocham, the son of Eliy’el, the son of Toach,
1Ch
6:35 The son of Tsuph, the son of Elqanah, the son of Machath, the son of
Amasai,
1Ch
6:36 The son of Elqanah, the son of Yo’el, the son of Azaryahu, the son of Tsephanyahu,
1Ch
6:37 The son of Tachath, the son of Acciyr, the son of Evyacaph, the son of
Qorach,
1Ch
6:38 The son of Yitshar, the son of Qohath,
the son of Leviy, the son of Yashar’el.
Asaph:
from the lineage of Gershom
1Ch
6:39 And his brother Asaph, who stood on
his right hand, even Asaph the son of Berekyahu, the son of Shim`a,
1Ch
6:40 The son of Miyka’el, the son of Ba`aseyah, the son of Malkiyahu,
1Ch
6:41 The son of Ethniy, the son of Zerach, the son of Adayahu,
1Ch
6:42 The son of Eythan, the son of Zimmah, the son of Shim`iy,

6:43 The son of Yachath, the son of
Gershom, the son of Leviy.
Eythan: from the
lineage of Merari
1Ch
6:44 And their brethren the sons of Merariy stood on the left hand: Eythan the son of Qiyshiy, the son of Abdiy, the son of
Malluk,
1Ch
6:45 The son of Chashavyahu, the son of Amatsyahu, the son of Chilqiyahu,
1Ch
6:46 The son of Amtsiy, the son of Baniy, the son of Shemer,
1Ch
6:47 The son of Machliy, the son of Mushiy, the son of Merariy, the son of Leviy.
1Ch
25:1 MOREOVER Daviyd and the captains of the host separated to the
service of the sons of Asaph, and of Heyman, and of Yeduthun, who should
prophesy with harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the
workmen according to their service was:
Yeduthun: H3038 comes from two words ‘yadah’ H3034
which means praise with extended hands and ‘tun/tan’ which means ‘gift’
Now let’s look at Psalms 88 & 89 verse 1
Psa
88:1 A Song or Mizmor of the sons of Korah, to the chief Musician upon
Machalath Leannoth, Maskiyl of Heyman the Ezrachiy. - O YAHUAH ELOHAI of my yeshu`ah (salvation), I have cried day
and night before you:
If you look at the word ‘Machalath’ is a variant of ‘Machalay’ H4249
the son of Merari which means ‘sickness’ (from chalah H2470). It was a probably
reference to one of the sons of Merari ‘Machalay’ which means ‘sickness’ and
they were showing a rising from the sickness to the Machol/dancing.
The word ‘Leannoth’ comes from the word ‘anah’ H6031 which means ‘to/lamed humble/anah’ Here the sons of
Korah are saying to their brother Eythan/Yeduthun the chief musician upon/ayil
(rising)H5921 ‘from (mem) sickness in humility’
Mem also means water and blood and depicts the spiritual affliction of
the soul in being in anah/submitting self to a deep cleansing by Mashiyach. It
further says ‘Maschil’ of Heyman the Ezrachay where ‘maschil’ means ‘from/mem
understanding/sakal of behold the right side/Heyman of the one who said I will raise you/Ezrachiy
Exo
6:18 And the sons of Qohath: Amram, and Yitshar, and Ḥeḇron, and Uzzi’ĕl. And the years of the life of Qohath were one hundred and
thirty-three.
Exo
6:21 And the sons of Yitshar: Qoraḥ, and Nepheḡ, and Ziḵri.
But when we read Psalms 89:1 we don’t see Eythan’s Psalm attributed to
sons of Korah but it says ‘Maskiyl’ which means ‘from/mem understanding/sakal
of the one Enduring/Eythan the one who
said ‘’I will raise you/Ezrachiy’’
Psa
89:1 Maskiyl of Eythan the Ezrachiy. - I WILL sing of the
mercies of YAHUAH forever: with my mouth will I make known your faithfulness to
all generations.
Coming back to 1Kings 4:31 the son ‘Zimriy’ which means ‘my music’ is
missing here and only 4 sons of Zarach are mentioned here. What happened to
‘Zimriy’ here is a mystery and that's because his other name is Zabdi
Jos
7:1 BUT the children of Yashar’el committed a transgression in the accursed
thing: for Akan, the son of Karmiy, the
son of Zabdiy, the son of Zerach, of the tribe of Yahudah, took of the accursed
thing: and the anger of YAHUAH was kindled against the children of Yashar’el.
We saw the meaning of
Zimriy which means ‘My Music’
Zabdi H2067 is from
the root word ‘zabad’ H2065 which means ‘a gift/dowry’
1Ch
2:4 And Tamar his daughter in law bore him את eth-Perets and את
eth-Zerach. All the sons of Yahudah were five.
1Ch
2:5 The sons of Perets; Chetsron, and Chamul.
1Ch
2:6 And the sons of Zerach; Zimriy, and Eythan, and Heyman, and Kalkol,
and Dara: five of them in all.
1Ch
2:7 And the sons of Karmiy; Akar,
the troubler of Ya shar’el, who transgressed in the thing accursed.
The son of Zarach
‘Zimriy’ is named as ‘Zabdi’ which means gift/dowry and is evident that his
lineage is identified by his son Karmiy from whom came Achan.
We also see Achan H5912
in Joshua 7:1 which means ‘trouble’ named as Achar H5917 in 1 Chro 2:7 which
means ‘Stir’. Hence, change of name relating to a situation can be seen
consistently in scriptures.
Gen
46:12 And the sons of Yahudah; Er, and Onan, and Shelach, and Perets, and
Zerach: but Er and Onan died in the land of Kena`an. And the sons of Perets were Chetsron and Chamul.
This son Karmiy in
Josh 7:1 is called a son of Zabdi (actually Zimri) and was borrowed according
the Torah of giving seed to the dead brother to keep his name alive in
Yasharal.
Zimri the firstborn
of Zarach would have died childless and the son of Perets i.e. Chetsron gave
seed to keep Zimri’s name alive in Yasharal and hence, Karmiy was the son to
keep Zimri’s name alive in Yasharal as Zabdi/gift or dowry.
1Ch
4:1 The sons of Yahudah; Perets, Chetsron, and Karmiy, and Choriy, and Shobal.
1Chro 4:1 shows
Karmiy the father of Achan to be the son of Chetsron who was the son of Perets
Hence, we don’t see
anywhere the sons of Zimri mentioned as he had none and would have died
childless. Perets which means breach/breaking forth/gap would be like a divider
as seen on the walls of the Most Set-Apart place where Tamar/Palm tree was
between a cherub with a face of a man facing it and a face of a lion facing it.
Eze 41:17 from the
space above the door, even to the inner house, as well as outside, and on every
wall all around, inside and outside, by measure.
Eze 41:18 And it was made with keruḇim and palm trees/tamarah, and a palm tree
between keruḇ and keruḇ. A keruḇ had two faces,
Eze 41:19 so that
the face of a man was toward a palm tree on one side, and the face of a young
lion toward a palm tree on the other side – made on all the
House all around.
Sons of Chetsron:
1Ch
2:9 The sons also of Chetsron, that were born unto him; את
eth-Yerachme’el, and את
eth-Ram, and את eth-Kelubai/Kelab.
The Mashiyach lineage recorded by Matthew in Chapter 1 is from his son
Ram but what is interesting to see is Matthew records Zarach along with his
brother but there is a pause in his lineage as only the lineage from Chetsron
son of Perets is shown from where Mashiyach came.
Mat
1:2 Abraham begat את eth-Yitschaq; and Yitschaq
begat את
eth-Ya`aqob; and Ya`aqob begat את eth-Yahudah and את eth-his brethren;
Mat
1:3 And Yahudah begat את eth-Perets and את eth-Zerach of Tamar; and Perets begat את eth-Chetsron; and Chetsron begat את eth-Aram;….
1Ch
4:1 THE sons of Yahudah; Perets, Chetsron, and Karmiy, and Choriy, and Shobal.
1Ch
4:2 And Re’ayah the son of
Shobal begat את eth-Yachath, and Yachath
begat את
eth-Achumai, and את eth-Lahad. These are
the families of the Tsor`iym.
1Ch
4:3 And these were of the father of Eytam; Yizre’el, and Yishma, and
Yidbash: and the name of their sister was Tselelponiy:
1Ch
4:4 And Penu’el the father of
Gedor, and Ezer the father of Chushah. These
are the sons of Choriy, the firstborn of
Ephrathah, the father of Beyt Lechem.
1 Chro 4:1 shows the other sons of Chetsron i.e. Karmiy (son of Zimri
as per Torah of the dead brother), Choriy & Shobal (sons through his son
Kaleb through Ephratah)
1Ch 2:18 And Kalĕḇ son of Ḥetsron brought forth children by Azuḇah, his wife, and by
Yeriyoth. Now these were her sons: Yĕsher, and Shoḇaḇ, and Ardon.
1Ch 2:19 And Azuḇah died, and Kalĕḇ took Ephrath as his wife, who bore him Choriy
1Ch
2:20 And Choriy brought forth
Uri, and Uri brought forth Betsal’ĕl.
1Ch 2:50 These were the descendants of Kalĕḇ: The
son Choriy, the first-born of Ephrathah: Shoḇal the father of Qiryath Yeʽarim,
1Ch 2:51 Salma the father of Bĕyth Leḥem, Ḥarĕph
the father of Bĕyth Gaḏer.
1Ch 2:52 And Shoḇal the father of Qiryath Yeʽarim had descendants: Haro’eh, half of the
Menuḥothites.
1Ch 2:53 And the clans of Qiryath Yeʽarim: the Yithrites, and
the Puthites, and the Shumathites, and the Mishraites. From these came the Tsorʽathites and the Eshta’olites.
1Ch 2:54 The sons of Salma: Bĕyth Leḥem, the
Netophathites, Atroth Bĕyth Yo’aḇ, and half of the Menaḥtites, and the Tsorʽites.
1Ch 2:55 And the clans of the scribes who dwelt at Yaḇĕts: the Tirathites, the
Shimʽathites,
the Suḵathites.
These were the Qĕynites who came from Ḥammath, the father of the house of Rĕḵaḇ.
In 1Chronicles 2:19 her name is written in a short form
'Ephrath'
Hence, we see Ephrayim and Yahudah becoming one
stick
1Ch
2:21 And afterward Chetsron went in to the daughter of Makiyr the father of
Gil`ad, whom he married when he was threescore years old; and she bore
him את
eth-Segub.
Gen
50:23 And Yosĕph saw Ephrayim’s
children to the third generation. The children of Maḵir, son of Menashsheh, were also brought up on Yosĕph’s knees.
We also see Chetsron
son of Perets taking the daughter of Makir the son of Menashseh and hence
became a breach between Ephrayim and Menashsheh where it was said of Yoseph
that from here will the Stone of Yasharal.
Gen
49:22 Yahusaph is a fruitful bough, even a
fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:
Gen
49:23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated
him:
Gen
49:24 But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong
by the hands of the mighty ELOHIYM of Ya`aqob; (from thence is
The Shepherd, The Stone of Yashar’el:)
He even became a
breach between Ephrayim and Levi as this Heyman who is called as Azarachay is
tied to Samuel the prophet. This is another proof that he (Heyman) was both of
sons of Korah and of Eprathites. In my study ‘Ephrathites of Bayth Lacham
Yahudah’ I touched based on this in detail. Here is an extract from the study:
Qorah's genealogy:
1) Elqanah:
1Ch 6:25 And the sons of Elqanah: Amasai and Aḥimoth.
1Ch 6:26 Elqanah – the sons of Elqanah: Tsophai/Tsuph
his son, and Naḥath his son,
1Chr 6:26-27 Elqanah had 4 sons but---two sons Tsuph and Nahath
are listed in the prophet Shemuel’s genealogy
1Ch 6:33 And these are the ones who stood with their sons: Of the sons of the Qehathites were Hĕman
the singer, son of Yo’ĕl, son of Shemu’ĕl,
1Ch 6:34 son of Elqanah, son of Yeroḥam, son of Eli’ĕl, son
of Tuach,
1Ch 6:35 son of Tsuph, son of Elqanah, son
of Maḥath, son of Amasai,
1Ch 6:36 son of Elqanah, son of Yo’ĕl, son of Azaryah, son
of Tsephanyah,
1Ch 6:37 son of Taḥath, son of Assir, son of Eḇyasaph, son of Qoraḥ,
1Ch 6:38 son of Yitshar, son of Qehath, son of Lĕwi, son of
Yisra’ĕl.
The Ephrathite linage can be seen from Tsuph as
1 Sam 1:1 says ‘And there was a certain man of Ramathayim Tsuphim,
of the mountains of Ephrayim’
1Sa 1:1 And there was a certain man of Ramathayim
Tsophim, of the mountains of Ephrayim, and his name was Elqanah
son of Yeroḥam, son of Elihu/Eliel, son of Tachu, son of Tsuph, an
Ephrathite.
Ramathayim is plural of Ramah, a place on the mountains of
Ephrayim and Tsophim plural of Tsuph referring to Ramah in which one of its
probable prominent head Tsuph an Ephrathite lived after whose name the place
was called and he is named as one of the fathers of Elqanah. This Ramah
shouldn't be confused with the Ramah in Yahudah where Matthew 2:16-17 shows
Herod killing all children from two years and under in Bayth Lacham and all its
coasts.
Now in understanding the genealogy of Elqanah in 1 Chr 6:27
Elqanah's immediate father is named as Yeroham son of Eliyab son of Nahath son
of Tsuphay/Tsuph son of Elqanah (great grandfather of Elqanah father of
Shemuel).
In 1 Chr 6:34 Elqanah's immediate father is named as
Yeroham son of Eliel son of Tuach son of Tsuph (who was an Ephrathite as per 1
Sam 1:1) son of Elqanah (great grandfather of Shemuel).
How is this possible?
According to the Turah of Masha if a man in Yasharal dies
childless his brother/closest relative redeems the dead brother's wife and the
seed born to her will be called after the dead man so that the dead man’s name
remains alive in Yasharal.
1Chr 6:26-27 Elqanah---two sons Tsuph/Tsuphay and Nahath
Elqanah---Nahath---Eliyab H446 (1Chr 6:27) or Eliel H447 (1 Chr
6:34) or Elihu H453 (1 Sam 1:1)---Yeroham---Elaqanah---Shemuel
This same person is mentioned with three name variants showing
us that he was the seed given to keep the name of the dead man alive in
Yasharal
Eliyab means -Al/Alahym is Ahb/Father ---Alahym is Father
Eliel means- Alay/My Alahym is Al/Alahym----My Alahym is Alahym
Elihu means- Alay/My Alahym of him/hu---My Alahym of him
1 Chr 6:34-35 Elqanah---Tsuph---Tuach-----Eliel/Eliyab/Elihu----Yeroham---Elqanah---Shemuel
It is evident that Elqanah (great grandfather of Elqanah father
of Shemuel) had two sons Nahath and Tsuph from different wives (one a Levite
and one an Ephrathite). This can be seen in 1 Chr 6:25-26 the two sets of sons
are mentioned separately and not clubbed together i.e. 1) Amasai & Ahimoth
2) Tsuph & Nahath.
The only possibility of Elqanah and his son the prophet Shemuel
are called Ephrathite’s if we see Nahath being the son of Elqanah from his
Levite wife and Tsuph being the son of Elqanah from his Ephrathite wife.
Nahath would have died childless and Tsuph of the Ephrathite
mother would have given his son Tuach to give Nahath's wife a seed named Eliyab/Eliel/Elihu
who would be called after the dead man Nahath to keep his name as a Levite
alive in Yasharal. In this way in Yahuah's description they would be both Levi
as well as Ephrathites. Ephrayim was given the greater blessing than his
younger brother Menashsheh and if Menashsheh's daughters also received an
inheritance with their brothers, the Ephrathite women would have received a
double portion as the name Eprath/Ephratah itself means 'ash heap'
1Chr 6:26-27 Elqanah---two sons Tsuph and
Nahath
Nahath---Eliyab/Eliel/Elihu---Yeroham---Elaqanah---Shemuel
1 Chr 6:34-35
Elqanah---Tsuph---Tuach-----Eliyab/Eliel/Elihu----Yeroham---Elqanah---Shemuel
2) Ebyasaph:
Qorah---Ebyasaph---Assir---Tahath---Tsephanyah---Azaryah---Yoel---Elqanah
(another Elqanah from Ebyasaph lineage).
3) Assir:
1 Chr 6:24 Qorah---Assir---Taḥath---Uri’ĕl---Uzziyah---Sha’ul
his son
Why were Amasai and Ahimoth other sons not considered to give
seed to their step brother Nahath's wife?
The name Amasai H6022 means 'burdensome/impose a burden' (from
H6006 amas)
The name Ahimoth H287 means 'ach/brother' 'muth/death' i.e.
'brother of death'. His name is also mentioned as 'Mahath' H4287 which means
'erasure' from H4229 'to blot out/abolish/wipe out'
1Ch 6:35 son of Tsuph, son of Elqanah, son of Maḥath
H4287, son of Amasai,
Their names itself tells us that they were named by their father
Elqanah for an unknown reason to us as a seed of burden and a seed of death/an
erasure.
The son of Tsuph, Tuach H8430 means 'humble' and his father's
name Tsuph H6689 means 'honey comb as in dripping honey' (from H6688)
This shows us names are very significant in scripture and gives
us a clear picture why parents would name their children positively and
negatively.
Why would Tsuph not take his brother Nahath's wife to give the
dead brother a seed?
If Tsuph would have been the blood brother from the same father
and mother to Nahath then he had to obey Turah by taking his brother's wife as
his to give her a seed, but it seemed him good to give his son Tuach to redeem
her. Notice the Turah portion says 'When brothers live together' indicating
under one roof....as of the same parents.
Deu 25:5 “When brothers live together, and one of
them has died, and has no son, the widow of the dead man shall not become a
stranger’s outside. Her husband’s brother does go in to her, and shall take her
as his wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her.
Deu 25:6 “And it shall be that the first-born son which she
bears does rise up for the name of his dead brother, so that his name is not
blotted out of Yisra’ĕl.
We can determine this from the genealogy or else it won't make
sense. The proof of the text lies in the three-variant spellings of the son
Eliyab/Eliel/Elihu which shows us he was a borrowed son by right of redemption
by the near kinsman. The word 'Nahath (Nachath)' comes from the primitive root
word H5181 which means 'to sink, descend, go down'. The same word H5183 means
'quietness/descent/to rest' and his name spiritually shows him resting in the
sleep of death where H2844 'khat' means 'crushed; also, afraid; abstractly
terror: - broken, dismayed, dread, fear'
1Ch 6:66 And
some of the clans of the sons of Qohath had cities of their borders from the
tribe of Ephrayim.
1 Chr 6:66 is further proof that Qohathites (Elqanah and Samuel
were descendants of Qohath) had cities of their borders from the tribe of
Ephrayim. The Tanak doesn't mention Bayth Lacham being alloted to which tribe
but when we see both the Ephrathites and Yahudites dwelling there and the city
being called 'Ephrathites of Bĕyth Leḥem, Yahuḏah', it is an evidence that they shared the city in the
allotment or else an Ephrathite couldn't acquire a property in another tribe
inheritance as mentioned in Turah.
End of
extract
Thus, we see Heyman a descendant of Qohath also an Ephrathite
and Yahudite as he was a seed of Chetsron the son of Perets a son of Yahudah. We
will also see how he was an ‘Azarachay’ when we see Ethan’s lineage.
Who was Ethan
descended from?
We saw Ethan the Levite descended from Merari but he is called
Azarachay, we can get a clue through the genealogy
1.The descendants of Zerah: "The sons of Zerach were Zimriy, Eythan, Heyman, Calcol and Dara; five of them in
all." (1 Chronicles 2:6)
1 Chro 6:6-10 is a genealogy from Amram son of Qohath whose sons
were Aharon and Masha
1Ch
6:2 And the sons of Qehath: Amram,
Yitshar, and Ḥeḇron, and Uzzi’ĕl.
1Ch
6:3 And the children of Amram:
Aharon, and Mosheh, and Miryam. And the sons of Aharon: Naḏaḇ and Aḇihu, Elʽazar and Ithamar.
1Ch 6:4 Elʽazar brought forth Pineḥas, Pineḥas brought forth Aḇishua;
1Ch 6:5 and Aḇishua brought forth Buqqi, and Buqqi brought forth Uzzi;
1Ch
6:6 and Uzzi brought forth Zeracḥyah, and Zeracḥyah brought forth
Merayoth;
1Ch
6:7 Merayoth brought forth Amaryah,
and Amaryah brought forth Aḥituḇ;
1Ch
6:8 and Aḥituḇ brought forth Tsaḏoq, and Tsaḏoq brought forth Aḥimaʽats;
1Ch
6:9 and Aḥimaʽats brought forth Azaryah, and Azaryah brought forth Yoḥanan;
1Ch
6:10 and Yoḥanan brought forth Azaryah – it was he who served as priest in the House that Shelomoh built in
Yerushalayim;
1Ch
6:11 and Azaryah brought forth
Amaryah, and Amaryah brought forth Aḥituḇ;
1Ch
6:12 and Aḥituḇ brought forth Tsaḏoq, and Tsaḏoq brought forth Shallum;
1Ch
6:13 and Shallum brought forth Ḥilqiyah, and Ḥilqiyah brought forth
Azaryah;
1Ch
6:14 and Azaryah brought forth
Serayah, and Serayah brought forth Yehotsaḏaq.
1Ch
6:15 And Yehotsaḏaq went away when יהוה sent Yehuḏah and Yerushalayim into exile by the hand of Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar.
2. The sons of
Merari: "Then David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites to appoint
their relatives the singers, with instruments of music, harps, lyres,
loud-sounding cymbals, to raise sounds of joy. So, the Levites appointed Heyman
the son of Yoel, and from his relatives, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and from
the sons of Merari their relatives, Eythan
the son of Kushaiah," (1 Chronicles 15:16-17)
3. It shows he was descended from two branches of the Levi
who intermarried in the past: Zerachiah (Aaron/Kohathite) and the Merarites
1Ch
2:6 And the sons of Zeraḥ: Zimri, and Ěythan, and Hĕman, and Kalkol, and Dara, five of them in all.
1Ch
2:7 And the son of Karmi was Aḵar, the troubler of Yisra’ĕl, who trespassed in that which was under the ban.
1Ch
2:8 And the sons/banay of Ěythan was Azaryah.
1Chro 2:8 shows Azaryah as son of Eythan and there is a pause
there, there is no lineage shown from Azaryah here in the next verses. We must
not miss the word ‘banay’ which is plural before Eythan and means ‘sons’ but it is translated here by
translators as ‘son’ (singular)
Hence, scripture shows us that the pause doesn’t mean the
lineage stops here but we need to look elsewhere.
Ezra
was from this lineage:
Ezr
7:1 And after these events, in the
reign of Artaḥshashta sovereign of Persia, Ezra son of Serayah, son of Azaryah,
son of Ḥilqiyah,
Ezr
7:2 son of Shallum, son of Tsaḏoq, son of Aḥituḇ,
Ezr
7:3 son of Amaryah, son of Azaryah,
son of Merayoth,
Ezr
7:4 son of Zeraḥyah, son of Uzzi, son of Buqqi,
Ezr
7:5 son of Aḇishua, son of Phineḥas, son of Elʽazar, son of Aharon the chief priest –
If you compare the
genealogy between Ezra 7:1-5 and 1Chro 6:6-10 you will see Ezra records a short
genealogy of his descendancy whereas 1Chro 6:8-15 records the complete
genealogy. Please compare the two texts below:
Ezr
7:1 And after these events, in the
reign of Artaḥshashta sovereign of Persia, Ezra son of Serayah, son of Azaryah, son of Ḥilqiyah,
Ezr
7:2 son of Shallum, son of Tsaḏoq, son of Aḥituḇ,
Ezr
7:3 son of Amaryah, son of Azaryah, son of Merayoth
(Meraite),
Ezr
7:4 son of Zeracḥyah (Zerach), son of Uzzi, son of Buqqi,
Ezr
7:5 son of Aḇishua, son of Phineḥas, son of Elʽazar, son of Aharon the chief priest –
1Ch
6:3 And the children of Amram:
Aharon, and Mosheh, and Miryam. And the sons of Aharon: Naḏaḇ and Aḇihu, Elʽazar and Ithamar.
1Ch 6:4 Elʽazar brought forth Pineḥas, Pineḥas brought forth
Aḇishua;
1Ch 6:5 and Aḇishua brought forth Buqqi, and Buqqi brought forth Uzzi;
1Ch 6:6 and Uzzi brought forth Zeracḥyah, and Zeracḥyah brought forth Merayoth;
1Ch 6:7 Merayoth brought forth Amaryah,
and Amaryah brought forth Aḥituḇ;
1Ch 6:8 and Aḥituḇ brought forth Tsaḏoq, and Tsaḏoq brought forth Aḥimaʽats;
1Ch
6:9 and Aḥimaʽats brought forth Azaryah, and Azaryah brought forth Yoḥanan;
1Ch
6:10 and Yoḥanan brought forth Azaryah – it was he who served as priest in the House that Shelomoh built in
Yerushalayim;
1Ch
6:11 and Azaryah brought forth
Amaryah, and Amaryah brought forth Aḥituḇ;
1Ch 6:12 and Aḥituḇ brought forth Tsaḏoq, and Tsaḏoq brought forth Shallum;
1Ch 6:13 and Shallum brought forth Ḥilqiyah, and Ḥilqiyah brought forth Azaryah;
1Ch 6:14 and Azaryah brought forth
Serayah, and Serayah brought forth Yehotsaḏaq.
1Ch 6:15 And Yehotsaḏaq went away when יהוה sent Yehuḏah and Yerushalayim into exile by the hand of Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar.
The English
translation will never reveal the obvious so we must look closely in Hebrew:
1Chr 6:1 The sons of/banay Lewi were Gershon, Qehath and Merari
1Chr 6:2 And
the sons of/Ubanay Qehath were Amram, Yitshar, Chebron and Uzzi’El
1Chr 6:3 And
the sons of/Ubanay Amram were Aharon, Mosheh and Miryam. And the sons of/ubanay Aharon were
Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar
1Chr 6:4 Eleazar became the father of/hulayad eth-Pinechas, and Pinechas became the father of/hulayad Abishua
Usage
of the word hulayad:
The word ‘yalad’ H3205 is a root word in ‘hu/behold la/the yad/hand’
The word 'hu' also means 'Oh/Alas/Woe' and is used positively and negatively in scriptures
Again we see the scarlet thread hand extending in
testifying that Yahusha is Yahuah.
It is obvious that whenever there is a break in a
lineage through intermarriage/law of giving seed to a dead brother then this word is
used.
Exo 6:25 And Eleazar Aharon's son
took him one of the daughters of Putiy’el
to be his woman; and she bore him את
eth-Pinechas: these are the heads of the fathers of the
Leviyiym according to their families.
Pinechas son’s name was
Abishua which 1Chro 6:4 records which Eleazar acquired through one of the
daughters of Putiyel. The rabbinical Judaism attributes Putiyel to be Yethro,
Masha’s father in law who himself was a priest.
1Ch 6:4 Elʽazar brought forth
Pineḥas, Pineḥas brought forth Aḇishua;
Aharon begat Eleazar among
other sons Nadab, Abihu & Ithamar from Elishaba the daughter of Ammiynadab
from the lineage of Perets from Yahudah.
Hence we see the
breach/breaking forth of Yahudah through the priestly lineage
Exo 6:23 Aharon
took to himself eth-Elisheḇa, daughter of eth-Amminaḏaḇ, sister of eth-Naḥshon, as wife. And
she bore him eth-Naḏaḇ, and eth-Aḇihu, eth-Elʽazar, and eth-Ithamar.
Rth 4:18 Now these are the generations of Perets:
Perets begat את eth-Chetsron,
Rth 4:19 And Chetsron begat את eth-Ram,
and Ram begat את eth-Ammiynadab,
Rth 4:20 And Ammiynadab begat את
eth-Nachshon, and Nachshon begat את eth-Salmah
Hence, we see two lineages
one from Qohath from Levi and one from Yahudah -merged in the priesthood
Heb 7:11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical
priesthood, (for under it the people received the Torah,) what further need was
there that another priest should rise after the order of Malkiy-Tsedeq, and
not be called after the order of Aharon?
Heb 7:12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made
of necessity a change also of the priestly regimen.
Heb 7:13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertains
to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
Heb 7:14 For it
is evident that our YAHUAH sprang out of Yahudah;
of which tribe Mosheh spoke nothing concerning priesthood.
Heb 7:15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after
the similitude of Malkiy-Tsedeq
there arises another priest,
The title Malkiy (King)-
Tsedeq (Righteousness) comes from Adoni-tsedeq H139 referring to the King ruling
from Yerushalayim. There was a king ruling in Yerushalayim before Yasharal took
over Yerushalayim with this title
Jos 10:3 And Aḏoni-Tseḏeq sovereign of Yerushalayim sent to Hoham sovereign
of Ḥeḇron, and to Piram
sovereign of Yarmuth, and to Yaphiya sovereign of Laḵish, and to Deḇir sovereign of Eḡlon, saying,
The reference is to
Yahusha who is Malkiy-Tsedeq ruling on the throne of David as promised to David
by Yahuah. Hence, the priesthood would spring from there.
Now let’s get back to 1
Chro 6:5 where the lineage continues from Eleazar into the Yahudites from his
son Pinechas
1Chr 6:5 and Abishua became the father of/hulayad eth Buqqi,
and Buqqi became the father of/hulayad
Uzzi,
1Chr 6:6 and Uzzi became the father of/ hulayad eth ZerachYah,
and ZerachYah (ZerachYah: Yah will rise/zerach)
became the father of/ hulayad eth Merayoth (Merite: A descendant from Merari),
Strong’s translates the
word as ‘rebellious’ which is incorrect.
The usage of this word is only related to a name consistently in scripture.
The lineage further goes
on to let us know that Uzzi became the father of the seed of Zerach from where
Yah will rise and ZerachYah became the father of Merayuth where the suffix in
Hebrew ‘Ut’ is a plural feminine which should be correctly translated as ‘Merite’
(i.e. of Merariy)
1Chr 6:7 Merayoth became
the father of/hulayad AmarYah, and AmarYah became the father of/hulayad Achitub
1Chr6:8 and Achitub became
the father of/hulayad Tsadoq, and Tsadoq became the father of/hulayad Achimaats,
1Chr6:9 and Achimaats
became the father of/hulayad AzarYah and AzarYah became the father of/hulayad
Yochanan,
1Chr
6:10 and Yochanan became the father of/hulayad AzarYah (it was he who served as the priest in the house which Shelomoh
built in Yerushalam),
1Chr6:11 and AzarYah
became the father of/hulayad AmarYah, and AmarYah became the father of/hulayad
Achitub,
1Chr6:12 and Achitub
became the father of/hulayad Tsadoq, and Tsadoq became the father of/hulayad Shallum,
1Chr6:13 and Shallum
became the father of/hulayad ChilqiYah, and ChilqiYah became the father of/hulayad
AzarYah,
1Chr6:14 and AzarYah
became the father of/hulayad SeraYah, and SeraYah became the father of/hulayad
Yahutsadaq;
1Chr6:15 and Yahutsadaq
went into captivity when Yahuah carried away Yahudah and Yerushalam by the hand
of Nebukadnetsar.
Hence, we see a switch
over from banay/sons to hulayad/became father of through
intermarriage.
2Ki 25:18 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Tsapanyah the second priest, and
the three keepers of the door:
Ne 11:11 Seraiah
the son of Hilqiyah, the son of
Meshullam/Shallum, the son of Tsadoq, the son of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, was the ruler of the house of
Alahym.
Ezra’s lineage as quoted by him: Ezra-
Serayah- (Yehotsadaq not mentioned before Serayah by Ezra which is evident that
Serayah was his grandfather and Yehotsadaq his immediate father)-Azaryah-Hilqiyah—Shallum-Tsaqoq-Ahitub-Amaryah-Azaryah-Merayoth-Zeracyah
(Zerach)-Uzzi-Buqqi-Abishua-Phineas-Eleazar-Aharon
Ezra quotes only 6
generations and skips 8 generations unto him and that’s because of the hulayad/became
the father of. If you add the generations from David to the exile to Babel is
exactly 14 generations which is recorded by Matthew in his bashurah. Ezra is
showing his connection through Merari, Zerach & the Qehath lineage taking
away the focus from repeated names in his genealogy.
1Chr 6:10 tells us Azaryah was the priest in the temple which king
Shelemoh built and his great grandfather Tsadoq stood in the time of Daud as
priest
Mat 1:17 So all the
generations from Aḇraham to Dawiḏ were fourteen
generations, and from Dawiḏ until the exile to
Baḇel were fourteen generations, and from the exile to Baḇel until the Messiah
were fourteen generations.
The 1 Chro 6:7-8 doesn't record Achimelek/Ahimelek as the son of Ahitub which shows he was a priest, a son
of Ahitub from another wife of Ahitub. This was the priest who gave David and
his men the shew bread when they were hungry and was put to death by king Shaul
stating he conspired against him. 1 Chro 6:7-8 reveals Achitub’s son as Tsadoq.
1 Samuel 22:20 shows us Ahimelek’s son to be Eḇyathar
1Chr 6:7 Merayoth became
the father of/hulayad AmarYah, and AmarYah became the father of/hulayad Achitub
1Chr6:8 and Achitub became the father of/hulayad Tsadoq,
and Tsadoq became the father of/hulayad Achimaats,
The
14 generations from David to Babylonian captivity: Eḇyathar-(Ahimelek’s
son & Ahimelek was Achitub's son)- Tsaḏoq (Achitub’s son)-Ahimaats-Azaryah-Yochanan-Azaryah-Amaryah-Ahitub-Tsadoq-Shallum-Hilqiyah-Azaryah-Serayah-Yehotsaḏaq
Hence, when we count 14
generations from David to Babylonian captivity we count Ebyathar and Tsadoq as
they stood as priests in David’s court.
2Sa 8:15 And Dawiḏ reigned over all
Yisra’ĕl, and Dawiḏ was doing
right-ruling and righteousness to all his people.
2Sa 8:16 And Yo’aḇ son of Tseruyah was
over the army, and Yehoshaphat son of Aḥiluḏ was recorder,
2Sa 8:17 and Tsaḏoq son of Aḥituḇ and Aḥimeleḵ son of Eḇyathar were the
priests, and Serayah was the
scribe,
2Sam 8:17 seems to be
contradictory when we read it in English semantics, that's because Ebythar was the son
of Ahimelek but the English translations says Ahimelek son of Ebyathar which is
incorrect. Here is the Hebrew rendering:
17. w’Tsadoq/And Tsadoq
ben/son-‘Achitub wa’Achimelek/And Achimelek ben/son-‘Eb’yathar kohanim/priests
uS’raYah/and Serayah sopher/scribe.
There is no ‘of’ in Hebrew.
There is no contradiction in scriptures and men create this confusion.
The verse should read ‘And Tsadoq son- Achitub and Achimelek’s
son-Ebyathar priests and Serayah scribe’
1Sa 22:11 And the
sovereign sent someone to call Aḥimeleḵ the priest, son of Acḥituḇ, and all his father’s house, the priests
who were in Noḇ. And they all came to the sovereign,
1Sa 22:12 and Sha’ul
said, “Hear now, son of Aḥituḇ!”
And he answered, “Here I am, my master.”
1Sa 22:13 And Sha’ul
said to him, “Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Yishai, by
giving him bread and a sword, and have inquired of Elohim for him, to rise
against me, to lie in wait, as it is this day?”
1Sa 22:14 And Aḥimeleḵ answered the
sovereign and said, “And who among all your servants is so trustworthy
as Dawiḏ, who is the sovereign’s son-in-law, and
has turned aside to your counsel, and is esteemed in your house?
1Sa 22:15 “Have
I today begun to inquire of Elohim for him? Far be it from me! Let not the
sovereign lay a case against his servant, or against any in the house of my
father. For your servant knew not of all this, little or much.”
1Sa 22:16 And the
sovereign said, “You shall certainly die, Aḥimeleḵ, you and all your
father’s house!”
1Sa 22:17 The
sovereign then said to the guards who stood about him, “Turn
and put the priests of יהוה to death, because their hand also is with Dawiḏ, and because they
knew when he fled and did not reveal it to me.” But the servants of
the sovereign would not lift their hands to come against the priests of יהוה.
1Sa 22:18 And the
sovereign said to Do’ĕḡ, “You
turn and come against the priests!” So Do’ĕḡ the Eḏomite turned and came
against the priests, and put to death on that day eighty-five men who wore a
linen shoulder garment.
1Sa 22:19 And he
smote Noḇ, the city of the priests, with the edge of the
sword, from men even to women, from children even to nursing infants, and oxen
and donkeys and sheep, with the edge of the sword.
1Sa 22:20 And one of the sons of Aḥimeleḵ son of Aḥituḇ, named Eḇyathar, escaped and
fled after Dawiḏ.
1Sa 22:21 And Eḇyathar reported to
Dawiḏ that Sha’ul had slain the
priests of יהוה.
1Sa 22:22 And Dawiḏ said to Eḇyathar, “I
knew that day, when Do’ĕḡ the Eḏomite was there, that
he would certainly inform Sha’ul. I am accountable for all the lives of your
father’s house.
1Sa 22:23 “Remain
with me, do not fear. For he who seeks my life seeks your life, but with me you
are safe.”
Hence, it is evident that Azariah was not an immediate son of Eythan
the son of Zerach but his descendant mentioned in Ezra’s 7 & 1 Chro 6 lineage.
In 1 Chro 6 lineage he is lost as there are multiple Azaryahu’s in it but in Ezra’s
lineage he is evident as son of Merite/Merayoth, the son of Zerachyah ( from
Zerach) the son of Uzziy from Aharon’s (Qohath’s) lineage through Phineas
through Yahudah (Exo 6:23)
Ezr 7:1 NOW after these things, in the reign of
Artachshashta king of Persia, Ezra the son of Serayahu, the son of Azaryahu,
the son of Chilqiyahu,
Ezr 7:2 The son of Shallum, the son of Tsadoq, the son of
Achiytuv,
Ezr 7:3 The son of Amaryahu, the son of Azaryahu, the son of Merayoth
(Merite),
Ezr 7:4 The son of
Zerachyah (Zerach), the son of Uzziy, the son of Buqqiy,
Ezr 7:5 son of Aḇishua, son of Phineḥas, son of Elʽazar, son of Aharon the
chief priest –
1Ch 2:8 And the
sons/banay of Eythan; Azaryahu.
Hence, we see a pause in 1Chr
2:8 pertaining to Eythan the son of Zerach and a pause in Matthew’s genealogy
when quoting Zerach along with Perets. As Heyman came through Qohath and Eythan
through Merari, the lineage through Aharon shows us the enjoining between
Yahudah, Ephrayim & Levi, the tribes from where Mashiyach sprang forth as ‘Prophet
from the brethren, Priest and King’
1Ch 5:2 for Yehuḏah prevailed over his
brothers, and from him came a ruler, although the birthright was Yosĕph’s
Psa 110:4 YAHUAH has sworn, and will not repent, You are
a priest forever after the order/dabar of Malkiy-Tsedeq.
Song
of Masha and the Song of the Lamb:
Rev 15:3 And they sing the song of Mosheh (Shemoth 15:11)
the servant of YAHUAH, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are
your works, YAHUAH ELOHIYM TSEVA’OTH; just and true are
your ways, King of the qodeshiym (Saints. Those who are set apart.)
Rev 15:4 Who shall not fear you (Yirmeyahu 10:7), O
YAHUAH, and glorify your name? for you only are set-apart: for all nations shall come and worship before
you; (Tehilliym 86:9) for your judgments are made manifest.
The FIVE sons of
Zerach/rising show us a picture of the redeemed who bear the scarlet thread of
redemption singing the Turah, witnessing to ha Mashiyach.
Scarlet/shanay runs as the
Second/shanay witness throughout Turah.
It was in the Tabernacle
curtains & cloths (Exo 26:1), hangings for the door (Exo 26:36),hanging for
the gate (Exo 27:16), in the ephod (Exo 28:6, 33), vail (Exo 36:35), cleansing
of leper (Lev 14:4,6), cleansing of the plagued house (Lev 14:49), Cloth spread
on the table of shew bread (Num 4:8),in the sacrifice (Num 19:6)
The shanay/scarlet on the
hand/yad is a witness of Ha Mashiyach in Turah where hand represents the
showing of work of redemption in rising/zarach of Mashiyach. Scarlet is red in
color and represents the color of blood shed by Mashiyach for our sins.
Rev 14:1 AND I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on
Mount Tsiyon (Yesha`yahu 59:20; Tehilliym 2:6), and with him a hundred forty and
four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
Rev 14:2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of
many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of
kitharists playing with their kithara (guitars or harps):
Rev 14:3 And they
sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four living
creatures, 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 number 144000 is a
spiritual number representing the complete number i.e. 1,000 of the elects of
Yahuah in the OT and the NT. i.e.12 x 12 x 1000. No one could learn the song
except for them.
The picture of shanay/two
can also be seen in Yahuah making everything relating back to him in TWO
Examples:
Sun and moon, day and
night, male and female, heaven and earth, tree of knowledge of good and evil
and tree of life, two cherubs to guard to the way to the tree of life, two of a
kind in Noach’s ark, blood on the two door posts of the house (Pesach), two
omers of manna for one man, two witnesses, woman given two wings of an eagle,
two candle sticks, two covenants etc
Gen 1:16 And ELOHIYM made את eth-two/shanayam great lights; את eth-the greater light to rule the day, and את eth-the lesser light to rule the night: he made the
stars also.
Exo 20:5 You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor
serve them: for I YAHUAH ELOHAYKA am a jealous EL, visiting the iniquity
of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of
them that hate/shana
H8130 me;
Modern Hebrew through
vowel points changes the word ‘shana’ from a shan to samek to sound it ‘sana’
which is incorrect.
We already saw the word
‘shanah/shanay’ which means ‘two’. The word ‘shana’ spelled as ‘shan-nun-alaph’
is closely related to the shanah/shanay and is of the same family as it means
‘alter/change/diverse’. How is it translated as ‘HATE’?
If you relate hate in giving
Yahuah a second/shanay place makes sense as Yahuah expects us to love Him with
all our heart, soul and might. If we place other things before him, we are
actually idol worshipers as we are altering/changing his position in our lives.
Hate is the opposite of
love and is equal to a secondary love, a diluted love. Yahuah is a jealous AL
and visits the twisted actions of the fathers upon the children unto the third
and fourth i.e. beyond the TWO.
Yahuah has given us a two-fold
profound witness in scriptures about him.
Gen 38:27 And it
came to be, at the time for giving birth, that see, twins/taam H8380 were in her womb/batan H990.
The word ‘Taam’ H8380
means ‘double’
Ephrathah H672 means ‘double
ash heap’
Levi means ‘to enjoin/attached’
Perets means ‘to
breach/break’
Zerach means ‘rise’
Yadah means ‘praise with
extended hands’
The twins/double which
were abundantly blessed and joined are shown as breaking through and rising in
praise with extended hands, the hand which said ‘’I will raise you’’
(Azarachay)
Psa 110:1 יהוה said to my יהוה, “Sit at My right hand, Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”
Heb 2:11 For both He who sets apart and those who are being set apart are all of One, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brothers,
Heb 2:12 saying, “I shall announce Your Name to My brothers, in the midst of the congregation I shall sing praise to You.”
Summary:
We were brother's of the same household, but we/Yasharal of the Flesh were dead Spiritually, without Mashayakh. We were the dead brother, and Yahusha our brother gave seed to the Widow, who is us. That His name might not be cut off, but continue Spiritually as He gave His Life, the only Seed, which had Spiritual Life within it, to bear forth after its kind. To keep His name alive, in Yasharal of the Ruakh. For we were the Dead Brother in Transgression and also the Widow who needed the Seed of our Elder Brother and Firstborn. Yahusha performed the Turah of raising up a Son for the Widow who was us. He is the Firstborn amongst many brother's, and as He said we/Yasharal of the Ruakh are His Firstborn. Only by His death and Rising, could He fulfill the Turah of the Dead Brother! That Seed is Mashayakh and the Life within it is Eternal; no longer is Yasharal a Widow, but she has received the Only Seed of the Firstborn Brother, to bring Life back to her barren Womb, that she will give birth in turn to many sons and daughters now in the exact image and likeness of the Firstborn. For the garments of her Widowhood have been removed. The Brother was to take his brothers Widow as a wife. The only way Yahusha could take us as His wife was to die, and by His own blood cleanse us from our Spiritual Whoredom, making us a Virgin Daughter and Bride! Only He could Heal the Breach of His Daughter! Thus, Yasharal's name is not blotted out!
Seeing the one who broke forth, and the one who will come again. The one cut off in Death, but Rose to Life! Truly He redeemed us from the Turah of Khata and Mut, and through His Blood renews us to Life! How He has woven the Scarlet Thread so beautifully throughout Dabar is mind blowing. Making the Two, One in His Hand. The True Pattern vs The False Pattern. When I think of the Takanayat and Tabanayat, the roots KAN and BAN stickout, the Son Mashayakh our Foundation on which all stands in Him!
