Captivity Captive to The Rest



 Shab שב means to turn and the yod/ י hand is taking one AWAY

Shab שב is someone who is pressing into the Tent and the yod/י hand is taking him away and that’s what captivity means.


Shabbath:

Tau ת t is the stake or covenant. The yod/ י hand that took one away from the tent leads us to the stake ת outside the camp, beyond the physical sanctuary and that is the true Sabbath who is Yahusha ha Mashiyach.



Heb 13:12  And so יהושע also suffered outside the gate, to set apart the people with His own blood.

Heb 13:13  Let us, then, go to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach.

And that’s why it says He led captivity captive and gave gifts to men

Eph 4:8  That is why it says, “When He went up on high, He led captivity שבית (shabyath) captive שבי (shabay) and gave gifts to men.” Psa 68:18. 

He captured the captivity itself leading the captive unto Himself and that’s what it means.

Shaba: seven oaths has the root word shab שב and we saw it means someone who is pressing into the tent .

The ayin ע is the eye which witnessing the Shemitah ie. The sevens embedded in Torah which required the watcher (Yahusha)  to fulfill the seven oaths/declarations Himself.



We have scripture recording Ayob or Job receiving twice as much in his end estate after the trial

Before his trial, his possessions:

Job 1:3  And his possessions were seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred female donkeys, and a very large body of servants, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East. 

Add all those numbers and you get 11,000 

Job 42:10  And יהוה turned the captivity / שבית shabiyth H7622 of Iyoḇ when he prayed for his friends. And יהוה gave Iyoḇ twice as much as he had before. 

Job 42:12  And יהוה blessed the latter days of Iyoḇ more than his beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys. 

Add all this in Job 42:12 and you get 22,000.

We saw he started with 11,000 and his end estate he was blessed twice which is 11,000 x 2 = 22,000

There are 22 letters in Abary and number 10, 100 and 1000 in scripture stands for completeness.

Yahusha said if one sheep goes astray, the good shepherd leaves the 99 sheep and goes in search for the 1 so 99 + 1 makes the complete number.

Psa 50:10  “For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills. 

The thousand hills doesn’t mean Yahuah only owns cattle on thousand hills but the number 1000 shows the cattle on ALL Hills belong to Him.

A 1000 years in His eyes is as a watch in the night, 1000 here is the measure to show He is eternal in measuring time. We will rule with Mashiyach for 1000 years, the number 1000 shows eternity.

Hence, when we see 22,000 we see the 22 letters of the language of creation uttered from His mouth form the words, the words form the sentences and the sentences form the language. The pure words, refined words of Yahuah being Ayob’s portion forever.

Jas 5:11  See, we call those blessed who endure. You have heard of the endurance of Iyoḇ and saw the purpose of יהוה, that He is very sympathetic and compassionate. 

The endurance of Ayob was that he was led through suffering which is denoted by the captivity to lead him to Mashiyach and make him realize that there is no suffering greater than what He Himself in His transition would bear resulting in understanding the words of wisdom purified seven times bound in seven oaths which Yahusha Himself will bear in those sufferings. The path is narrow and long suffering to those who walk it as we are called to bear His reproach being led to Him outside the camp.




The word Mishneh משנה H4932 means double/ second in rank , repetition, copy of law. 

So, what was being copied ? The pattern of Torah of life which speaks of the end estate of Yahusha in order who covers His elect as He is also the First in Order.

The word mishneh also has the root word shaniy שני H8144 which means scarlet thread which is a red blood color thread and denotes the scarlet thread of redemption in Mashiyach in scripture. Also has the root word shanah which means two.

Ayob seemed to be pushed to the end estate of sufferings for which his brothers, his sisters and his friends comforted 

Job 42:11  And all his brothers, and all his sisters, and all those who had been his friends before, came to him and ate food with him in his house. And they sympathised with him and comforted/nacham נחם H5162 him for all the evil that יהוה had brought upon him. And they each gave him a qesitah and each one a ring of gold. 

nacham נחם H5162 which is translated as 'comforted' is also the same word 'relent /ease/console. 

They tried to ease him from the evil that Yahuah brought upon Him. Ayob was a type of Malchitsedeq priest as he offered sacrifices for his children after they feasted  thinking they would have cursed Alahym in their hearts.

 Job 1:5  And it came to be, when the days of feasting had gone round, that Iyoḇ would send and set them apart, and he would rise early in the morning and offer ascending offerings – the number of them all – for Iyoḇ said, “It might be that my sons have sinned and cursed Elohim in their hearts.” This Iyoḇ always did. 

If you notice Ayob lived in UTS /Uz which was in Edom and away from the land. That’s why he never was part of the feasts celebrations by his seven sons and three daughters who were probably feasting the seven days of Unleavened bread as the text says each day there was a feast in each of his 7 sons house where they feasted. 

Job 1:1   There was a man in the land of Uts, whose name was Iyoḇ. And that man was perfect and straight, and one who feared Elohim and turned aside from evil. 

Ayob was not part of their worship and also was not part of Corporate worship where Ha Shatan came along on the day the sons of Alahym met (maybe in a kenesseth/synagogue) on a high day. Ayob was not among their worship pattern.


The word they have translated as curse is actually the word barakh which means bless.

It makes no sense unless we understand that the blessing in heart was of another worship pattern which was actually an accursed form of worship in pagan land.

We later see his wife telling him “curse Alahym and die” and the very same word barakh is used

Job 2:9  And his wife said to him, “Do you still hold fast to your integrity? Curse/barakh ברך H1288  Elohim and die!” 

The usage of the word is unique as his wife was asking him not to hold to his integrity of solo worship but be part of the worship pattern everyone else is following as they all are worshiping Yahuah. It’s so much as our days.

The Shabbath/שבת , shaba שבע (seven oaths) , shabiy שבי (captivity) , has the root word shab in all which also says about Ayob that Yahuah turned/shab שב the captivity/ shabayath שבית of Ayob 

And we see Yahusha leading captivity captive as He takes us outside the camp to bear His reproach to restore to us the pure language of creation and it all comes with a price to bear.
