Torah of the Dead Brother

In the OT we see that if a brother died childless then his brother or closest relative if no brother is available, should marry the dead brother's wife and raise a seed for her to keep his name alive in Yasharal. The seed born to her would be called after the name of the dead man and so was the tribal inheritance be with the son born called after the dead man.

We see the story of Ruth the Moabitess (by geographical location and not Moab itself) as an example where Elimelech the Ephrathite sold his inheritance due to severe famine in the land and went to the fields of Moab to sojourn there with his wife Naomi and 2 sons Machlon and Chilyon. Machlon married Ruth (Ruth 4:10) and Chilyon married Orphah and Elimelech and his 2 sons died in the land of sojourning and both his sons died childless. While Orphah went back to her people (Reubenites), Ruth clung to Naomi and she was redeemed along with the inheritance which was sold by Elimelech, it was redeemed by Boaz the Yahudite and their son Obed was now both and Ephrathite as well as a Yahudite and from this lineage came David.

Num 21:23 But Siḥon would not allow Yisra’ěl to pass through his border. So Siḥon gathered all his people together and went out against Yisra’ěl in the wilderness, and he came to Yahats and fought against Yisra’ěl. 

Num 21:24 And Yisra’ěl struck him with the edge of the sword and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Yabboq, as far as the children of Ammon, for the border of the children of Ammon was strong. 

Num 21:25 And Yisra’ěl took all these cities, and Yisra’ěl dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites – in Ḥeshbon and in all its villages, 

Num 21:26 for Ḥeshbon was the city of Siḥon the sovereign of the Amorites, who had fought against the former sovereign of Mo’aḇ, and had taken all his land from his hand as far as the Arnon. 

Num 21:27 That is why those who speak in proverbs say, “Come to Ḥeshbon, let the city of Siḥon be built and established.

Jos 12:4 and the border of Oḡ, sovereign of Bashan, who was of the remnant of the Repha’ites, who dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Eḏre‛i, 

Jos 12:5 and ruled in Mount Ḥermon, and in Salḵah, and in all Bashan, as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Ma‛aḵathites, and the half of Gil‛aḏ as far as the border of Siḥon sovereign of Ḥeshbon. 

Jos 12:6 Mosheh the servant of יהוה and the children of Yisra’ěl had stricken them. And Mosheh the servant of יהוה had given it as a possession to the Re’uḇěnites, and to the Gaḏites, and to half the tribe of Menashsheh. 

Num 32:37 And the children of Re’uḇěn built Ḥeshbon and El‛alěh and Qiryathayim, 

This is how we know that Ruth and Orphah were Reubenites.

Rth 4:18 And this is the genealogy of Perets: Perets brought forth Ḥetsron. 

Rth 4:19 And Ḥetsron brought forth Ram, and Ram brought forth Amminaḏaḇ. 

Rth 4:20 And Amminaḏaḇ brought forth Naḥshon, and Naḥshon brought forth Salmon. 

Rth 4:21 And Salmon brought forth Bo‛az, and Bo‛az brought forth Oḇěḏ. 

Rth 4:22 And Oḇěḏ brought forth Yishai, and Yishai brought forth Dawiḏ. 

1Sa 17:12 Now Dawiḏ was the son of that Ephrathite of Běyth Leḥem in Yehuḏah, whose name was Yishai, and he had eight sons, and in the days of Sha’ul the man was old among men.

The Davidic covenant came with a promise that the Messiah would be seated on his throne forever keeping his name alive in Yasharal with his tribal inheritance of Ephrayim and Yahudah as Ephrayim was the son of Yoseph who was promised one lot more than his brothers and from this tribe was the Stone of Yasharal.

Gen 49:22 “Yosěph 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 Ya‛aqoḇ – from there is the Shepherd, the Stone of Yisra’ěl – 

By bringing Ruth and Boaz together Yahuah made it possible as Ephrayim represents Yasharal as per the firstborn blessing and Yahudah represents the Kingly Malchitsedeq priesthood.

Gen 48:22 “And I, I have given to you one portion (Shechem) above your brothers, which I took from the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.” 

While scriptures are silent on the war Yaaqob made with the Amorite with his sword and bow, we understand from the name of the place 'Shechem' translated as portion here, where Yahuchanan records Yahusha entering one of the cities of Shomeron called Sukar across from the parcel of the field which Yaaqob gave to his son Yoseph. This parcel of the field was 'Shechem'

John 4:5 He entered to one city of the cities of Shomeron called Sukar, across from the parcel of the field that Yaaqob had given to his son Yoseph.

 Now that we have briefly understood the Torah of the dead brother, no where in the New Testament do, we find any reiteration of this law to be kept and there is a reason for it. While it is obvious it’s related to kinsman redeemer and termed as Goel in Hebrew, it’s a law perfectly kept and fully realized in Yahusha who is our Yahuah Goel. 

To understand this law, I showed how the law also related to redemption of land along with the woman whose husband died leaving her childless to keep the dead husband’s name and inheritance alive in Yasharal. 

The New Testament records a lot of persecution of those who believed in Yahusha as the chief priests and rulers had already determined that those who profess Yahusha will be excommunicated from Yasharal’s inheritance. That’s why they sold their lands and laid the money at the emissary’s feet.

Act 4:34 For there was not anyone needy among them, for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of what was sold, 

Act 4:35 and laid them at the feet of the emissaries, and they distributed to each as anyone had need.

While the first blush plain reading of scripture one would conclude that they sold their lands to distribute to the needy, a comparison of the text with the blind man who by birth was blind and healed by Yahusha shows us how the persecution existed.

Jhn 9:20 His parents answered them and said, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind, 

Jhn 9:21 but how he now sees we do not know, or who opened his eyes we do not know. He is of age, ask him, he shall speak concerning himself.” 

Jhn 9:22 His parents said this because they were afraid of the Yehuḏim, for the Yehuḏim had already agreed that if anyone confessed that He was Messiah, he should be put out of the congregation.

John 9:34 They answered and said to him (blind man healed), “You were completely born in sins – and are you teaching us?” And they cast him out.

Once excommunicated the person would lose his tribal inheritance. Later the tribes were dispersed to the ends of the earth when the Romans attacked Yerushalayim.

And they lost all their tribal inheritance and eventually over a period of time they all lost their ethnicity.

Yahusha had told that His kingdom is not of this world. And he promises inheritance in New Yerushalayim from above.

Luk 22:29 “And I covenant for you, as My Father covenanted for Me, a reign,

 Luk 22:30 to eat and drink at My table, in My reign, and to sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Yisra’ěl.”

Jhn 18:35 Pilate answered, “Am I a Yehuḏi? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What did You do?”

 Jhn 18:36  יהושע answered, “My reign is not of this world. If My reign were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Yehuḏim. But now My reign is not from here.”

Rev 3:12 “He who overcomes, I shall make him a supporting post in the Dwelling Place of My Elohim, and he shall by no means go out. And I shall write on him the Name of My Elohim and the name of the city of My Elohim, the new Yerushalayim, which comes down out of the heaven from My Elohim, and My new Name. 

Rev 3:13 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’

Hence, He is the kinsman redeemer who gives His people back their ethnicity which was lost, an inheritance in Him forever and not like a temporary dwelling in Kenaan which Moshe the man of Elohim warned Yasharal that they won’t be long in the land Elohim gives them but will be dispersed.

Deu 4:26 “I shall call the heavens and earth to witness against you on that day, that you soon completely perish from the land which you pass over the Yarděn to possess – you do not prolong your days in it but are completely destroyed. 

Deu 4:27 “And יהוה shall scatter you among the peoples, and you shall be left few in number among the nations where יהוה drives you.

 Deu 4:28 “And there you shall serve mighty ones, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell

Dry 4:29 “But from there you shall seek יהוה your Elohim, and shall find, when you search for Him with all your heart and with all your being.

Yasharal was bound to the physical Torah of the land to the literal command of the Torah of the dead brother pointing to the fulfilment in Yahusha ha Mashiyach.

Even before written Torah came, we see Yahudah taking a Kenaanite woman ‘Shuwa’ which was forbidden to take (foreign wives forbidden) and she bore him ER who was wicked and Yahuah killed him. Yahuah asked Onan his brother to take Tamar his wife to raise seed for his brother, but he too was wicked as he spilled his seed on the ground and Yahuah killed him too. Yahudah told Tamar his daughter in law to wait until Shelah his son grows and later forgets to give her to him, and she conceals her identity and Yahudah mistaken her for a whore and went into her and raises a seed for himself without knowing it. You may read the entire account in Genesis 38. The seed raised couldn't be of ER as the Torah required the living brother to take his dead brother's wife to raise a seed for her and Shelah was the potential candidate to do this which Yahudah failed in giving him to Tamar.

Tamar bore Perets and Zerah to Yahudah as a direct seed and Yahusha ha Mashiyach came through the lineage from Perets and not through Shelah as Er, Onan and Shelah were born through Shuwa the Kenanite woman. We can see example of Esau who also took foreign wives which became a snare to Yitshaq and Rebecca.

Rut 4:12 “And let your house be like the house of Perets, whom Tamar bore to Yehuḏah, of the seed which יהוה does give you from this young woman.”

It clearly says that Tamar bore Yahudah Perets and not to Er.

Mat 1:2  Aḇraham brought forth Yitsḥaq, and Yitsḥaq brought forth Ya‛aqoḇ, and Ya‛aqoḇ brought forth Yehuḏah and his brothers.

 Mat 1:3 And Yehuḏah brought forth Perets and Zeraḥ by Tamar, and Perets brought forth Ḥetsron, and Ḥetsron brought forth Ram. 

Mat 1:4 And Ram brought forth Amminaḏaḇ, and Amminaḏaḇ brought forth Naḥshon, and Naḥshon brought forth Salmon.

 Mat 1:5 And Salmon brought forth Bo‛az by Raḥaḇ, and Bo‛az brought forth Oḇěḏ by Ruth, and Oḇěḏ brought forth Yishai.

Matthew record’s Mashiyach coming through lineage of Perets. Why would he not come through Shelah if he was not of a foreign woman?

1Ch 4:21 The sons of Shělah the son of Yehuḏah: Ěr the father of Lěḵah, and La‛dah the father of Marěshah, and the clans of the house of the linen workers of the house of Ashběa;

 1Ch 4:22 and Yoqim, and the men of Kozěḇa, and Yo’ash, and Saraph who ruled in Mo’aḇ, and Yashuḇi-Leḥem. But the records were ancient. 

1Ch 4:23 These were the potters and those who dwell at Neta‛im and Geḏěrah; there they dwelt with the sovereign for his work.

Hence, we see the Torah of the dead brother was related to the land as it pointed to the Goel (kinsman redeemer) to have mercy in redemption of the widow who was childless along with her dead husband’s inheritance and it all depended on the kinsman redeemer to redeem or refuse to redeem his right just as we see Naomi had a closer relative who refused to redeem Ruth and then Boaz stepped in to redeem her.

Rut 3:12 “And now, it is true that I am your redeemer. However, there is a redeemer nearer than I. 

Rut 3:13 “Stop over tonight, and in the morning, it shall be that if he does redeem you, good – let him do it. But if he is not pleased to redeem you, then I shall redeem you, as יהוה lives! Lie down until morning.”

Rut 4:3 He then said to the redeemer, “Na‛omi, who has come back from the fields of Mo’aḇ, sold the piece of land which belonged to our brother Elimeleḵ. 

Rut 4:4 “And I thought that I should disclose it to you, saying, ‘Buy it back in the presence of the inhabitants and the elders of my people. If you do redeem it, redeem it. But if you do not redeem it, inform me, so that I know. For there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you.’ ” And he said, “I redeem it.” 

Rut 4:5 And Bo‛az said, “On the day you buy the field from the hand of Na‛omi, you shall also acquire Ruth the Mo’aḇitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead on his inheritance.”

 Rut 4:6 And the redeemer said, “I am not able to redeem it for myself, lest I ruin my own inheritance. Redeem my right of redemption for yourself, for I am not able to redeem it.”

Hence, the law saw a fulfilment in Yahusha Himself as Yasharal was tied to the physical law and were not able to be found in Yahuah to kinsman redeem them as Yahuah was not their brother until He came through the same womb and hence when Yahuah brought them to Kenaan, He told them they won’t be in Kenan for long and that He would scatter them to the ends of the earth because they couldn’t be redeemed by the physical law related to their carnal fleshly inheritance as that was never the intent of the law of the dead brother given. 

1Tim2:15 But she shall be saved in child bearing  if they continue in faith and in love and in sanctification with propriety.

Rev12:2 and she being with child cried out in birth pangs, and in agony of giving birth.

Rev12:3 And another sign was seen in the heavens, and behold, a great red dragon with fire having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems

Rev12:4 And his tail dragged a third of the stars of the heavens and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child. 

Rev12:5 And she (Covenant Yasharal) brought forth a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. And her child was caught up to the Elohim and to His throne 

Few of His remnant as Abraham understood the spiritual inheritance in Yahusha as he saw His day and rejoiced.

Heb 11:8 By belief, Aḇraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he was about to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

 Heb 11:9 By belief, he sojourned in the land of promise as a stranger, dwelling in tents with Yitsḥaq and Ya‛aqoḇ, the heirs with him of the same promise, 

Heb 11:10 for he was looking for the city having foundations, whose builder and maker is Elohim.

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 brother's, in the midst of the congregation I shall sing praise to You.”

Yahuah’s true intent of giving the Torah of the dead brother was that His people be found in His transitioned form in the New Creation related to New Yerushalayim, being related to Him as His brothers so that He could become their Yahuah Goel (Yahuah the kinsman redeemer). Our name and inheritance would remain alive in Him reserved to be revealed in the last time.

Php 3:9 and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through belief in Messiah, the righteousness, which is from Elohim on the basis of belief, 

 Php 3:10 to know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death,

Hence, we see the New Testament coming with discernment of whom to consider as widow.

1Ti 5:3 Respect widows who are truly widows.

 1Ti 5:4 But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to treat their own house reverently, and to repay their parents. For this is good and acceptable before Elohim.

 1Ti 5:5 And she who is truly a widow, and left alone, trusts in Elohim and continues in petitions and prayers night and day. 

 1Ti 5:6 But she who is living in luxury is dead while she lives. 

 1Ti 5:7 And command these matters, in order for them to be blameless. 

1Ti 5:8 And if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the belief and is worse than an unbeliever. 

 1Ti 5:9 Do not enrol a widow unless she is over sixty years of age, having been the wife of one man,

 1Ti 5:10 well reported for good works, if she has brought up children, if she has lodged strangers, if she has washed the feet of the set-apart ones, if she has assisted the afflicted, if she has closely followed every good work.

1Ti 5:11 But refuse the younger widows, for when they become headstrong against the Messiah, they desire to marry,

 1Ti 5:12 having guilt because they set aside their first belief. 

 1Ti 5:13 Moreover, they learn to be idle, going about from house to house, and not only idle but also gossips and busybodies, speaking what is improper. 

 1Ti 5:14 So I resolve that the younger widows marry, bear children, manage the house, giving no occasion to the adversary for reviling. 

 1Ti 5:15 For already some have turned aside after Satan. 

 1Ti 5:16 If any believing man or woman has widows, let such assist them, and do not let the assembly be burdened, in order to assist those who are truly widows.

The younger widows were to be refused to be considered as widows and the assembly was not to be burdened but the believing man or woman having widows at home were to assist those who are truly widows and were encouraged that they be married off, bear children and manage the house. Shaul the emissary also set a cut of age to consider a widow i.e.. 60 years and above and that too she should have been the wife of one man.

Shaul was aware of the situation that happened when the assembly was found, all widows were being treated as widows and taken care of by the assembly and there were complaints about the daily distribution to them.

Act 6:1 And in those days, when the taught ones were increasing, there arose a grumbling against the Hebrews by the Hellenists, because their widows were overlooked in the daily serving.

Hence, he brings order to discern who the true widows actually are vs the widows who live in sin and not worthy of being called a widow and moreover, it was perfectly understood by the assembly that the transitioning believers from being a Yahudite tied to the physical land and a carnal inheritance had a fulfilment in Yahusha ha Mashiyach as the true Yahuah Goel and hence, the additional information on how to consider widows.

We have Yahusha telling the Yahudite as to whom EliYahu was sent to when the heavens were shut for three years and six months.

Luk 4:25 “But truly I say to you, many widows were in Yisra’ěl in the days of Ěliyahu, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months, and there was a great scarcity of food in all the land,

 Luk 4:26 and Ěliyahu was sent to none of them, but to Tsarephath of Tsiḏon, to a woman, a widow.

Firstly, we must understand who EliYahu was and what was his prophetic role.

1Ki 17:1   And Ěliyahu the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gil‛aḏ, said to Aḥaḇ, “As יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ěl lives, before whom I stand, there shall be no dew or rain these years, except at my word.”

EliYahu was a Tishbite of the inhabitants of Gilead and was part of the tribe of Menashsheh, the first-born son of Yoseph whose first born berekah was given to his younger brother Ephrayim. Hence, the elder was to make way for the younger as the promise of the Shepherd of Yasharal was from Ephrayim which we saw in the book of Ruth as how the dead man Machlon the Ephrathite’s name was kept alive in Yasharal and David was both an Ephrathite as well as a Yahudite.

Num 26:28 Sons of Yosěph according to their clans, by Menashsheh and Ephrayim: 

Num 26:29 Sons of Menashsheh: of Maḵir, the clan of the Maḵirites. And Maḵir brought forth Gil‛aḏ; of Gil‛aḏ, the clan of the Gil‛aḏites. 

Num 26:30 These are sons of Gil‛aḏ: of Iyezer, the clan of the Iyezerites; of Ḥěleq, the clan of the Ḥěleqites; 

Num 26:31 of Asri’ěl, the clan of the Asri’ělites; of Sheḵem, the clan of the Sheḵemites;

We don’t have time to look in detail, but we see Abraham was not the firstborn of his father Terah, Esau’s birthright was given to Yaaqob the younger, Menashsheh’s birthright given to Ephrayim, Reuben’s birthright given to Yoseph.

1Ch 5:1   As for the sons of Re’uḇěn the first-born of Yisra’ěl – he was the first-born, but because he profaned his father’s bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Yosěph, son of Yisra’ěl, so that the genealogy is not listed according to the birthright, 

1Ch 5:2 for Yehuḏah prevailed over his brothers, and from him came a ruler, although the birthright was Yosěph’s

The firstborn birthright spoke of Yahuah in His transition becoming the elder brother of His people in the person of Yahusha who would pass on the firstborn berekah to His remnant. 

Mal 4:5 “See, I am sending you Ěliyah the prophet before the coming of the great and awesome day of יהוה.

 Mal 4:6 “And he shall turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with utter destruction.

Many traditionalists teach that EliYahu will come before the great day of Yahuah and is one of the two witnesses of Revelation 11 which is false, and I have touched based this in my note Did Elijah and Enoch ascend into heaven.

Malachi 4:5-6 is a prophecy of Yahuchanan the immerser who came in the Ruach of EliYahu to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to the fathers.

Luk 1:13 But the messenger said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zeḵaryah, for your prayer is heard. And your wife Elisheḇa shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Yoḥanan. 

Luk 1:14 “And you shall have joy and gladness, and many shall rejoice at his birth. 

Luk 1:15 “For he shall be great before יהוה, and shall drink no wine and strong drink at all. And he shall be filled with the Set-apart Spirit, even from his mother’s womb. 

Luk 1:16 “And he shall turn many of the children of Yisra’ěl to יהוה their Elohim.

 Luk 1:17 “And he shall go before Him in the spirit and power of Ěliyahu, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’ 

Yahuchanan was son of ZakarYah who was from the Tsadok lineage, but he was not part of the temple priesthood and served Yahuah by preparing His way outside the temple in turning the hearts of the people towards Yahusha who is our Yahuah.

Mrk 9:11 And they asked Him, saying, “Why do the scribes say that Ěliyahu has to come first?”

 Mrk 9:12 And He said to them, "Ěliyahu indeed, having come first, restores all matters. And how has it been written concerning the Son of Aḏam, that He is to suffer much and be despised? 

 Mrk 9:13 “But I say to you that even Ěliyahu has come, and they did to him whatever they wished, as it has been written of him.”

Similarly, EliYahu stood against the Omri dynasty in serving Yahuah outside of the temple worship which was corrupted and filled with Baal worship. 

Jas 5:17  Ěliyahu was a man with feelings like us, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain. And it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. 

Jas 5:18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the land brought forth its fruit.

Heavens shut for 3 years and six months typology:

Gentiles trampling the outer court (Rev 11) for 42 months. 42/12 =3.5 years 

Woman was given place in the wilderness away from the Serpent for 1260 days. 1260/360 (lunar year) = 3.5 years

Time, times and dividing of time (Rev 12). 

Time (360), Times (360 x 2 =720) and dividing of time (360/2 =180) 

360 + 720 + 180 =1,260 days.

EliYahu shutting heaven for 3 years and 6 months which is equivalent to 3.5 years, it was a typology of the Woman who fled into the wilderness prophecy before the coming of the Great Day of Yahuah fulfilled in Yahuchanan coming in the Ruach and power of EliYahu and him being a Levite in the Tdadok priesthood, serving Yahuah and preparing His way outside the temple worship shows us that the corruption of the Corporate worship was prominent in his days when the chief priests, Pharisees and Saducees were ruling just as EliYahu withstood the Omri dynasty when Ahab and Ysezebel were ruling.

Yahusha says EliYahu was sent to a widow during these 3.5 years of heaven shutting up while there were many widows in Yasharal during his time. This widow was from Tsarepath (a place of dispersed exiles who had returned back) and she was already having a son (and not a widow to be accounted for Torah of the dead brother). This shows this widow was right in Yahuah’s eyes and was walking as a true widow having washed the Set Apart people's feet (as she gave her last meal which was for her and her son to EliYahu). 

1Ki 17:8 Then the word of יהוה came to him, saying,

 1Ki 17:9 “Rise up, go to Tsarephath, which belongs to Tsiḏon, and dwell there. See, I have commanded a widow there to sustain you.”

 1Ki 17:10 And he rose up and went to Tsarephath, and came to the gate of the city and saw a widow there gathering sticks. And he called and said to her, “Please bring me a little water in a vessel to drink.” 

1Ki 17:11 And as she was going to get it, he called and said to her, “Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand.”

 1Ki 17:12 And she said, “As יהוה your Elohim lives, I do not have bread, only a handful of flour in a bin, and a little oil in a jar. And see, I am gathering a couple of sticks and shall go in and prepare it for myself and my son, and we shall eat it, and die.”

 1Ki 17:13 And Ěliyah said to her, “Do not fear, go and do as you have said, but make me a small cake from it first, and bring it to me. And afterward make some for yourself and your son.

 1Ki 17:14 “For thus said יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ěl, ‘The bin of flour shall not be used up, nor the jar of oil run dry, until the day יהוה sends rain on the earth.’” 

1Ki 17:15 So she went and did according to the word of Ěliyahu, and she and he and her household ate for many days.

 1Ki 17:16 The bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry, according to the word of יהוה which He spoke by Ěliyahu.

Speaking of the widow who lives in luxury or sin we see the typology to her being part of Mystery Babylon as written

Rev 18:7 “As much as she esteemed herself and lived riotously, so much torture and grief give to her, because in her heart she says, ‘I sit as queen, and I am not a widow, and I do not see mourning at all.’

Yahusha fulfilled the sanctification of His people in getting the rebellious children who were sent out with a certificate of divorce by Yahuah as they went after many lovers and the Torah clearly stated that the woman who is put away with a certificate of divorce couldn’t return to her first husband. The woman in the land couldn’t relate to Yahuah to be found in Him and hence, he drove them away from His face and scattered them to the ends of the earth and transitioned into coming in a human body to sanctify and restore her to the intended image of being his bride but not before bringing them into a realization that they are widows as the bridegroom is taken away from them in His death and they weep and mourn for Him in their widowhood garments to be found in Him in remarrying Him who was raised from the dead in transitioning them in Himself so that they be found in Him.

Jer 3:8 “And I saw that for all the causes for which backsliding Yisra’ěl had committed adultery, I had put her away and given her a certificate of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Yehuḏah did not fear but went and committed whoring too.

Deu 24:1 “When a man takes a wife and shall marry her, then it shall be, if she finds no favour in his eyes because he has found a matter of uncoveredness in her, and he shall write her a certificate of divorce, and put it in her hand, and send her out of his house,

 Deu 24:2 and if she left his house and went and became another man’s wife,

 Deu 24:3 and the latter husband shall hate her and write her a certificate of divorce, and put it in her hand, and send her out of his house, or when the latter husband dies who took her to be his wife,

 Deu 24:4 then her former husband who sent her away is not allowed to take her back to be his wife after she has been defiled, for that would be an abomination before יהוה. And do not bring sin on the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you as an inheritance.

Rom 7:2 For the married woman has been bound by Torah to the living husband, but if the husband dies, she is released from the Torah concerning her husband. 

Rom 7:3 So then, while her husband lives, she shall be called an adulteress if she becomes another man’s. But if her husband dies, she is free from that part of the Torah, so that she is not an adulteress, having become another man’s.

 Rom 7:4 So my brothers, you also were put to death to the Torah through the body of Messiah, for you to become another’s, the One who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to Elohim.

This transition of Himself and His people in Him was the intention of Yahuah to bring His people into being partakers of His Divine nature to an inheritance which is Spiritual Yerushalayim from above.

1Pe 1:3 Blessed be the Elohim and Father of our Master יהושע Messiah, who according to His great compassion has caused us to be born again to a living expectation through the resurrection of יהושע Messiah from the dead,

 1Pe 1:4 to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and unfading, having been kept in the heavens for you, 

 1Pe 1:5 who are protected by the power of Elohim through belief, for a deliverance ready to be revealed in the last time,

The Torah of the Dead brother to keep His name and inheritance alive in Yasharal by marrying the widow was fulfilled by Yahusha Himself and the Dead brother who transitioned to give His name now as  Yahusha which means ‘Yahuah is Salvation/Deliverance’ and is a memorial name and name above every name for all eternity. One can’t find Yahuah beyond Yahusha.
