Zec 13:7 “O sword, awake against My Shepherd, against the warrior/geber (גבר)H1397 who is My Companion/amyath H5997,(עמית)” declares יהוה of hosts. “Strike the Shepherd, and let the sheep be scattered. But I shall turn My hand upon the little ones.
Zech 13:7 is undeniably speaking of Yahusha ha Mashiyach as the same scripture is quoted in the Renewed Covenant as well
Mat 26:31 Then יהושע said to them, “All of you shall stumble in Me this night, for it has been written, ‘I shall strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered.’
Mar 14:27 And יהושע said to them, “All of you shall stumble in Me this night, for it has been written, ‘I shall strike the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.’
Yahusha Himself quotes Zechariah 13:7 in respect to Him as a Shepherd being stricken and the sheep being scattered.
Zechariah 13:7 is a testimony Yahuah gives of the Gibbor (prevailing warrior) who is His עמית (translated as Companion)
The word AMYATH has two major root words
AM (עם) which means ‘people’
Yath (ית) tied up to את (alaph tau). Yath has the letters yod tau which shows the covenant (tau) made by hand (yod) and this is tied up to Yahusha as his hands (yod ) were impaled to the stake (tau). Tau in ancient paleo Hebrew is the shape of ‘t’
The second word in the attachment above is amyath, Hebrew reads from right to left and the last two letters are yath where we can see the yod/hand and the stake or covenant/ tau. Am in Hebrew means ‘people or nation’
Zec 13:7 “O sword, awake against My Shepherd, against the warrior/geber (גבר)H1397 who is My Companion/amyath H5997,(עמית)” declares/ naam H5002 (נאם)יהוה of hosts. “Strike the Shepherd, and let the sheep be scattered. But I shall turn My hand upon the little ones.
Before we see the next word naam, there is only one who has prevailed and is named as AL GIBBOR and He is Yahusha ha Mashiyach.
Isa 9:6 For a Child is born unto us, a Son is given unto us, and the rule is on His shoulder. And His Name is called Wonder, Counsellor, Ěl Gibbor/(גבר)H1368, Father of Continuity, Prince of Peace.
AmYath is translated as ‘Companion or Equal’ but the correct translation should be ‘my kindred’
The Yath shows the extension to us being the am/עם ie. The people of Yahuah through Mashiyach’s hands being impaled on the stake.
Naam (נאם) H5002 is from H5001 used only once as a repeated word in
Jer23:31 Behold, I am against the prophets, says Yahuah, who use their tongues and declare/yanaamu, He says/naam
Hence, naam also means ‘utter/utterance/oracles’
Why does Yahuah tell the sword/chereb to awake?
Strong’s H5783 aur/עור means ‘to wake/opening of the eyes’
The root word ar in aur means bare/naked
Gen 2:25 And they were both naked/arum H6174 (ערם), the man and his wife, yet they were not ashamed.
The root word in arum is ar
The sword’s eyes opening is metaphorical language and is tied up with Adam and Chauah’s eyes being opened after they ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
Luk 22:36 And He said to them, “But now, let him who has a purse take it, likewise also a bag. And let him who has no sword sell his garment and buy one.
Luk 22:37 “For I say to you that what has been written has yet to be accomplished in Me, ‘And He was reckoned with lawless ones.’ Isa 53:12. For that which refers to Me has an end too.”
Luk 22:38 And they said, “Master, look, here are two swords.” But He said to them, “That is enough!”
Scripture always portrays a two fold witness, there was a disciple who was following Yahusha with a linen cloth and when he was caught, he left the linen cloth and ran away naked
Mar 14:51 And a certain young man was following Him, having a linen cloth thrown around his naked body. And when they seized him,
Mar 14:52 he left the linen cloth and fled from them naked (ערם)
They stripped Yahusha of his outer garments and divided His garments making Him expose His body too.
Yahusha : Shepherd
Sheep: The young man represents us the sheep
Strike the rohi/shepherd
Psa 23:1 יהוה is my shepherd/ROHI ; I do not lack.
There is only One Good shepherd who laid down His life for His sheep/צאן H6629
The word sheep is deeply tied to Zion/Tsayun (ציון) H6726 as both have the root words Tsun/צון or צנ which means sign/title/waymark H6725
Doesn’t it say, the sheep hear the voice of the shepherd and follow after Him?
They put a marker on Yahusha’s stake and all passer-byes mocked Him
Luk 23:38 And there was also an inscription written over Him in letters of Greek, and Roman, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE SOVEREIGN OF THE YEHUḎIM.
Mar 15:26 And the inscription of His accusation was written above: THE SOVEREIGN OF THE YEHUḎIM.
Mar 15:27 And with Him they impaled two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left.
Mar 15:28 And the Scripture was filled which says, “And He was reckoned with the lawless.” Isa 53:12.
Mar 15:29 And those passing by were blaspheming Him, shaking their heads Psa 22:7 and saying, “Ah! You who destroy the Dwelling Place and build it in three days,
Mar 15:30 save Yourself, and come down from the stake!”
Now when we revisit the scriptures Luke 22:36-38 we see Yahusha telling to sell garment and buy a sword and verse 38 says And they said “ Master, look, here are two swords”
Gen3:24 So He drove the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden He stationed the cherubim and the flaming sword whirling around
to guard the way to the tree/ets of lives/chayim
Many see only one sword here as it says flaming sword in singular but let’s look at the passage closely
It’s says 1. He drove the man/Adam , hold on what about his wife?
Gen 5:1 This is the book of the genealogy of Aḏam. In the day that Elohim created man, He made him in the likeness of Elohim.
Gen 5:2 Male and female He created them, and He blessed them, and called their name ‘Aḏam’ in the day they were created.
Aluahym created them male and female and called their name Adam, hence the wife is included in the driving out of Eden even though Adam is used singular here.
2. Cherubim placed. Here we don’t have an issue because Cherubim is plural showing more than one cherub was kept to guard the way to the tree of life.
3. All our English bibles says ‘ tree of life’ but the Hebrew renders it as ‘tree of lives’
So there had to more than one tree, nope, the ets/tree is in singular but the lives/chayim is plural.
Gen 2:7 And יהוה Elohim formed the man out of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils breath of lives/chayim , And the man became a living being.
When Yahuah Aluahym formed Adam, He breathed into Adam the breath of lives. Adam represented his race which includes us.
Hence, when we read tree of lives, the tree of lives represents those in Yahusha who would receive eternal life and hence Yahusha represents His kind.
1Co 15:45 And so it has been written, “The first man Aḏam became a living being,” the last Aḏam a life-giving Spirit.
Shaul the emissary speaks of this representation of Adam and Mashiyach
1Co 15:48 As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, so also are those who are heavenly.
1Co 15:49 And as we have borne the likeness of the earthy, we shall also bear the likeness of the heavenly.
4. Flaming sword: A singular sword at first blush but the English renders it as whirling around and the Hebrew word there is ‘hamith’hapeketh’
The word haphak H2015 means overturn as in pouring out its contents.
All translations omit the word ‘math’ before the word ‘haphak’.
Math means Man/Mortal
Gen 3:8 And they heard the sound of יהוה Elohim as a man/mat H4962 walking/halak H1980 about in the garden in the ruach/ H7307 רוּחַ in the day/ha yom, and Aḏam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of יהוה Elohim among the trees of the garden.
Here is the verse in Hebrew
Gen 3:8 וישמעו את קול יהוה אלהים *מתהלך * בגן—לרוח היום ויתחבא האדם ואשתו מפני יהוה אלהים בתוך עץ הגן
They didn't translate 'mat' in the word 'mat halak' as it didn't make sense to them of Yahuah Aluahym walking as a man in the garden of Adan because most of the Messianics see Yahuah Aluahym can't be a man. But this imagery cannot be ignored. It was not that Yahuah was a man but they heard the sound of Yahuah Aluahym as a man walking about in the garden in the Ruach in the day. They translated 'ruach hayom' as 'cool of the day'.
This is evidence of Yahuah in a bodily form being face to face with His creation as Messenger of Yahuah in OT and finally took the bodily form as Yahusha to be our Redeemer.
The flaming sword was unveiling the man by pouring out the hidden content of who He was and that is none other than Yahusha ha Mashiyach.
When ZecharYah says Awake sword, he is prophesying the making bare of the hidden content of who Yahusha is, He is Yahuah Himself and at the east /qedem קדם we have the man Yahusha through whose veil of the flesh one would be able to access the tree of lives/chayim as He was the type of Adam who was to come. Adam represented his race by holding the breath of mortal breath leading everyone to death and Yahusha represents His race holding the Ruach breath giving those passing through the veil of His flesh breath of lives in Himself.
Heb 10:19 So, brothers, having boldness to enter into the Set-apart Place by the blood of יהושע,
Heb 10:20 by a new and living way which He instituted for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh,
His disciples carrying two swords is an imagery of Him opening the way/Derek to the tree of lives.
Rev 2:7 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, I shall give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of Elohim.”
The other picture is of Yahuah dividing asunder by allowing the sword pass through Him to bring forth His substance into a human form to be face to face with His creation so that everyone coming through the veil of His flesh would enter into Yahuah to have the same breath of His which is manifest in His human form ie. Yahusha.
Joh 5:26 “For as the Father possesses life in Himself, so He gave also to the Son to possess life in Himself,
Heb 4:12 For the Word of Elohim is living, and working, and sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through even to the dividing of being and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
The double edged sword is what is manifest which He brought on Himself to reveal His content in being in the human form.
Double edged sword: PaypaYah chereb
The two mouths seed (pah pah) of Yahuah, where Yahusha spoke in both the first tense as well as the second tense voice.
Rev 2:12 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Pergamos write, ‘He who has the sharp two-edged sword, says this:
Rev 1:16 And in His right hand He held seven stars, and out of His (Yahusha’s) mouth went a sharp two-edged sword,b and His face was as the sun shining in its strength.
The cherubim placed:
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, 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.
Eze 41:20 From the floor to the space above the door, and on the wall of the Hěḵal, keruḇim and palm trees were carved.
Ezekiel saw the cherubs between Palm tree on both sides on all the walls of the set apart place in the haykal.
א ת (alaph tau)— כת (crush)
Adam ( last Adam: Mashiyach) tamar (erect palm ) kapyir from kaphar ( mercy seat).
Tamar also bore from Yahudah Perets and Zarach
Perets means breach and is mentioned in Mashiyach genealogy in Matthew 1
Breach can also mean splitting into parts as we see the pattern shown as divided in cherub on one side of the palm tree/tamar and another cherub on the other side , both cherubs facing the palm tree.
Tamar has root words tam which mean’s upright and mar which means bitter
The picture is of Mashiyach on either sides as well as the center of the pattern. It’s all about him.
1. The face of man/Adam facing the palm tree
2. The face of young lion (lion of Yahudah) , also denoted by the one sitting on the lid of atonement or mercy seat (kaphar)
3. The Tamar : the Tree which stood erect Inspite of being given wormwood to drink
The Cherubs - two were placed with flaming sword which reveals the content of the man Yahusha,so that Adam and Chauah don’t eat from the tree of lives without passing through the man Yahusha who is Yahuah Himself in human form.
Two Cherubs bowing to kaphar/ mercy seat in Most Set Apart place, Two cherubs between palm tree,
AhaYah asher AhaYah, Yahuah said to My Yahuah sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool, Yahuah rained fire out of Yahuah from heaven,
Yahuah proclaiming name Yahuah before Masha when second set of sapphire tablets engraved with his fingers was given, Yahuah testified as Messenger of Yahuah in Luke 2 while Yahuah was actually lying in a manger, Father esteem your name, then a voice came out from heaven “ I have esteemed it and will esteem it again”
People who stood said it thundered
And others said An Angel spoke from heaven
All this shows by Decree Yahuah ordained Himself to come forth into a body and dwell in it in His fullness (Col 1:19, 2:9)
Yahuchanan saw Yahusha His Eyes were as Flames of Fire 🔥
His voice was like roaring of waters
Ties to the trough Alayahu filled with water and then the flame of fire came down and licked up the sacrifice with the water.
The consummation as opposites ie. Water and Fire
Psa 29:3 The voice of יהוה is over the waters; The Ěl of esteem thunders; יהוה is over many waters.
Psa 29:7 The voice of יהוה cuts through the flames of fire.
Noach time destruction by water, the present earth is reserved to be destroyed by fire, In between is mercy.
When I go through the waters, it won’t harm me
When I go through the fire, the fire won’t burn me
Shedrach Mesach Abednego went through fire 🔥 but it didn’t harm them . The Son of Man was there in the midst.
The disciples were in the boat when the winds and the waves hit them, didn’t harm them as Yahusha was in the boat
Isa 43:2 “When you pass through the waters, I am with you; and through rivers, they do not overflow you. When you walk through fire, you are not scorched, and a flame does not burn you.
All ties up with water and fire.
We are regenerated through the washing of the water by His word
Voice of Yahuah over many waters. He takes us through the depths.
And through fire 🔥 as the sacrifice on the altar.
Our Aluahym is a consuming fire, He makes his ministers a flame of fire.
Water and fire were elements in many things for purification in the temple.
Eze 10:5 And the sound of the wings/kanaph of the keruḇim was heard in the outer court, like the voice of Ěl Shaddai when He speaks.
Kanaph also means hide
The cherubs and their wings imagery is of Mashiyach.
His voice was heard in the outer court. He came in flesh
Sun of Righteousness with healing in his wings. He that dwells in secret place of the Most High abides under the wings of the EL Shaddai. Mashiyach is that secret place.
Again two voices, One that is within the Most Setapart place, And one that reaches the outer court. He is the temple or Tabernacle. That’s why He said, the words that He spoke are not His but the Fathers, The Father cannot be found beyond Him.
As in the outer court we see the Lamb but in the inner court we see the Lion/ kaphyir
Kaphar the mercy seat where the two cherubim bow.
Yahuah is called as One who dwells between the kerubim.
Shalum!
