The virgin birth

 I remember watching a video which had many loopholes where the guy was twisting the Matthew & Luke passages by saying after the Ruach came on Miryiam she and Yaaqob had sex while he had not yet taken her to be his wife and when he found out she was pregnant he wanted to put her away secretly being a just man but took her when in the dream was told to take her as wife as it was a divine arrangement from Yahuah, and was talking about Yahudite custom of engagement means marriage etc.  He then jumped to showing Yahusha had to be the physical seed of David or else he cannot be the son of David.

There are many flaws to this kind of teaching

1. Yahuah will never go against His Torah in allowing unmarried couple to have sex and His Son be born of this illicit relationship called fornication which Torah forbids

2. Secondly Matthew's account is crystal clear, before they came together she was found with child of the Ruach HaQodesh

Mat 1:18 Now the birth of YAHUSHA HA’MASHIACH was on this wise: When as his mother Miryam was espoused to Yoceph, before they came together, she was found with child of the RUACH HA’QODESH.
Mat 1:19 Then Yoceph her man, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
Mat 1:20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of YAHUAH appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Yoceph, son of David, fear not to take unto you את eth Miryam your woman: for that which is conceived in her is of the RUACH HA’QODESH.

3. If Yoseph had sex with her, he would never think of putting her away. He was a just man by not making her a public example for stoning as per Torah and thought of putting her away privily

4. Yahuah sent His malak in his dream not to fear to take her as wife as that which is conceived in her is of the Ruach HaQodesh

The man in the video was saying Yahuah cannot be unjust to give Miryiam a child and Yoseph should bear the reproach of not being the child's father. What he or the group fails to understand that Yahuah uses His people who are open for His perfect will to be done. Please see what Miryiam said

Luk 1:38 And Miryam said, Behold the handmaid/shipchah of YAHUAH; be it unto me according to your word. And the angel departed from her.

shipchah H8198 is rooted in the word mispachah which means family. Remember, Leah's and Rachel's handmaids/shipchah's gave 4 sons to be sons of Yaaqob with a tribal inheritance

Gen 29:24  And Laḇan gave his female servant Zilpah to his daughter Lĕ’ah as a handmaid/shipchah H8198

Gen 29:29  And Laḇan gave his female servant Bilhah to his daughter Raḥĕl as a handmaid/shipchah H8198

Bilhah gave birth to Dan and Naphtali (Genesis 30:3-8), while another handmaid, Zilpah, gave him Gad and Asher (Genesis 30:9-13)

Matthew is clear in letting us know that Yoseph did not have sex with Miriyam until she gave birth to her Son

Mat 1:24  And Yosĕph, awaking from his sleep, did as the messenger of יהוה commanded him and took his wife,
Mat 1:25  but knew her not until she gave birth to her Son, the first-born. And he called His Name יהושע. 

Its right in saying the father would determine the tribe, and Aluahym being the Father of His Son did the determination already

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.

Shiloh is an epithet of Messiah, one who will bring tranquility to His people

Isa 11:1  And a Rod shall come forth from the stump of Yishai, and a Sprout from his roots shall bear fruit.

Rev 22:16  “I, יהושע, have sent My messenger to witness to you these matters in the assemblies. I am the Root and the Offspring of Dawiḏ, the Bright and Morning Star.

Who was David?

1Sa 17:12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathiy of Beyt Lechem Yahudah, whose name was Yishai; and he had eight sons: and the man went among men for an old man in the days of Sha’ul.

How was David an Ephrathite?

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

Yahuah in His wisdom brought Boaz the Ephrathite &  Yahudite to redeem Ruth who formerly was a Reubenite and married to Machlon who was an Ephrathtie. Machlon died childless and Boaz in redeeming Ruth bore a son whose name was Obed. Here is the genealogy listed unto David.

 

Boaz was a close relative of Elimelech

Rth 2:1  And Naʽomi had a relative on her husband’s side, a man of great wealth, of the clan of Elimeleḵ, and his name was Boʽaz.  

Ephrathites are mentioned twice more in Scripture. The sons of Naomi, Mahlon and Kilion, were “Ephrathites from Bethlehem, Judah” (Ruth 1:2). After Mahlon and Kilion died in Moab, their mother returned to Bethlehem along with Ruth, Mahlon’s widow (verses 6–22). Thus Ruth the Moabitess (by geographical location) became an Ephrathite. Another Ephrathite was Yesse, the father of King David, who was “from Bethlehem in Yahudah”(1 Samuel 17:12). Some translations also list Tsuph, an ancestor of Samuel, as an Ephrathite in 1 Samuel 1:1

Rth 1:1  And it came to be, in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a scarcity of food in the land. And a man from Bĕyth Leḥem, Yehuḏah, went to sojourn in the fields of Mo’aḇ, he and his wife and his two sons. 

Num 21:25  And Yisra’ĕl took all these cities, and Yisra’ĕl 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 32:37  And the children of Re’uḇĕn built Ḥeshbon and Elʽalĕh and Qiryathayim,

Ruth was a Reubenite as Heshbon was the city of Sihon sovereign of the Amorites who had fought with the former king of Moab and taken in possession. When the land allotment came beyond the Yarden, Mosheh gave that land to the Reubenites who rebuilt the city of Heshbon. Hence Elkanah, Naomi and their sons who were Ephrathites went to sojourn in this piece of land, hence, Ruth is called a Mobitess by geographical location and not by descent. If she was from descent a Moabitess, then the Torah says that Moabites and Ammonites are forbidden from entering the sanctuary or inheritance of Yahuah.

Deu 23:3  “An Ammonite or Mo’aḇite does not enter the assembly of יהוה, even a tenth generation of them does not ever enter the assembly of יהוה,

Yahuah put a marker on 2 tribes Yoseph and Yahudah from where the Messiah would spring forth from

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 –

Ephrahyim was Yoseph's younger son who was given the first born berekah/blessing and hence scriptures Interchangeably uses Eprahiym representing the 10 tribes of Yasharal while Yahudah represents the 2 tribes Yahudah and Binyamin. By bringing in Boaz and Ruth together, Yahuah in His wisdom brought forth Ephrayim and Yahudah together from where He Himself would spring forth from.

How did the Lewites settle in Yahudah?

2Ch 11:13  And from all their borders the priests and the Lĕwites who were in all Yisra’ĕl took their stand with him (Rehoboam). 

2Ch 11:14  For the Lĕwites left their open lands and their possessions and came to Yehuḏah and Yerushalayim, for Yaroḇʽam and his sons had rejected them from serving as priests unto יהוה, 

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, son of Tohu, son of Tsuph, an Ephrayimite.
1Sa 1:2  And he had two wives, the name of one was Ḥannah, and the name of the other Peninnah. And Peninnah had children, but Ḥannah had no children. 

1Ch 6:66  And some of the clans of the sons of Qehath (Lewites) had cities of their borders from the tribe of Ephrayim. 

1 Chr 6:66 is further proof that Qehathites (Elqanah and Samuel were descendants of Qehath) had cities on 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, Yehuḏah', 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 Torah.

Num 36:7  “And the inheritance of the children of Yisra’ĕl is not to change hands from tribe to tribe, for every one of the children of Yisra’ĕl is to cling to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers. 

Num 36:8  “And every daughter possessing an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Yisra’ĕl is to be the wife of one of the clan of her father’s tribe, so that the children of Yisra’ĕl possess each the inheritance of his fathers. 

Num 36:9  “Thus the inheritance is not to change hands from one tribe to another, but every tribe of the children of Yisra’ĕl is to cling to its own inheritance.” 

Samuel's lineage:

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, son of Tohu, son of Tsuph, an Ephrayimite.

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 grand father of Shemuel).  

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, son of Tohu, son of Tsuph, an Ephrayimite.

1Ch 6:25  And the sons of Elqanah: Amasai and Aḥimoth. 

1Ch 6:26  Elqanah – the sons of Elqanah: Tsophai his son, and Naḥath his son,
1Ch 6:27  Eliyaḇ his son, Yeroḥam his son, Elqanah his son. 

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 Towaḥ, 

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, 

According to the Torah 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 mans 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/Towah-----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 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'

3 sons of Qorah's genealogy:

1) Elqanah:

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 Torah 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 Torah 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 spelling 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'

This is evidence that the prophet Shemuel was both an Ephrathite as well as a Lewite. Hence, his lineage served as priests in the heykal of Yahuah.

Luk 1:5  There was in the days of Herodes, the sovereign of Yehuḏah, a certain priest named Zeḵaryah, of the division of Aḇiyah. And his wife was of the daughters of Aharon, and her name was Elisheḇa.

Luk 1:36 “And see, Elisheḇa your/Miryiam closest relative, she has also conceived a son in her old age. And this is now the sixth month to her who was called barren,

1Ch 5:1  As for the sons of Re’uḇĕn the first-born of Yisra’ĕl – he was the first-born, but because he profaned his father’s bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Yosĕph, son of Yisra’ĕl, 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 Yosĕph’s – 

There was a need that the Messiah be a Prophet, Priest and King and these 3 tribes Ephrayim (Prophet: remember Yoseph his father was interpreter of dreams), Lewite (Priesthood which translated to the Malchitsedeq priesthood) and Yahudah (Lion of Yahudah-Ruler)

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 ADONAI 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,
Heb 7:16 Who is made, not after the regimen of the commands of the flesh, but after the power of an endless life.
Heb 7:17 For he testifies, You are a priest forever after the order of Malkiy-Tsedeq. (Tehilliym 110:4)
Heb 7:18 For there is truly a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

Messiah is placed after the order/dabar of Malchitsedeq whose genealogy is not recorded. Without father, mother or descent

Heb 7:1  For this Malkitseḏeq, sovereign of Shalĕm, priest of the Most High Elohim, who met Aḇraham returning from the slaughter of the sovereigns and blessed him,
Heb 7:2  to whom also Aḇraham gave a tenth part of all, his name being translated, indeed, first, ‘sovereign of righteousness,’ and then also sovereign of Shalĕm, that is, ‘sovereign of peace,’
Heb 7:3  without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but having been made like the Son of Elohim, remains a priest for all time.

There is a study altogether which I did a few years ago that this Malchitsedeq was Shem, the son of Noah who outlived Abraham. Remember, before Yaaqob there were no tribes or tribal inheritance. Hence, the marker was placed on Yoseph and Yahudah only when the tribes came into existing. The marker was placed by Yahuah Himself.

If you remember David ate the shewbread which was only rightful for the priests to eat? How was he not killed ? Its because  He was in the lineage of the Malchitsedeq priesthood where it was promised to him that the Messiah from His lineage would be a Priest and a King forever.

David identified with the priests:

1Ch 15:25  And it was Dawiḏ and the elders of Yisra’ĕl, and the commanders over thousands, who went to bring up the ark of the covenant of יהוה from the house of Oḇĕḏ-Eḏom with joy.
1Ch 15:26  And it came to be, when Elohim helped the Lĕwites who bore the ark of the covenant of יהוה, that they offered seven bulls and seven rams.
1Ch 15:27  And Dawiḏ was dressed in a robe of fine linen, as were all the Lĕwites who bore the ark, the singers, and Kenanyah the leader of the service with the singers. And Dawiḏ wore a linen shoulder garment.

If Saul could be among the prophets (1 Sam. 10:12), 1 Chronicles presents David as among the priests, i.e., he was “clothed with a robe of fine linen, as were all the Lewites.”

Samuel (1 Sam. 2:18), AhiYah (14:3), and the priests of Nob (22:18) all wore ephods. (It’s probably not too much to say that the one wearing the ephod is a priest, cf. 1 Sam. 2:28). Accordingly, when David wears an ephod, his priestly status is suggested, if not declared. 

1Sa 2:18  But Shemu’ĕl was attending before יהוה – a youth, wearing a linen shoulder garment.

1Sa 14:3  And Aḥiyah son of Aḥituḇ, Iḵaḇoḏ’s brother, son of Pineḥas, son of Ěli, the priest of יהוה in Shiloh, was wearing a shoulder garment. And the people did not know that Yonathan had gone. 

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.

Moreover, he wrote the Psalms and many of his Psalms were priestly prayers ascending to the throne of Yahuah. Song of ascents

Mat 22:42  saying, “What do you think concerning the Messiah? Whose Son is He?” They said to Him, “The Son of Dawiḏ.”

Mat 22:43  He said to them, “Then how does Dawiḏ in the Spirit call Him ‘Master,’ saying,
Mat 22:44  ‘יהוה said to my Master, “Sit at My right hand, until I make Your enemies a footstool of Your feet” ’?
Mat 22:45  “If then Dawiḏ calls Him ‘Master,’ how is He his Son?”

Mat 22:46  And no one was able to answer Him a word, and from that day on no one was bold enough to ask Him any more questions.

The most important aspect is Yahusha's question to the Pharisees, stating if Messiah if the Son of David, how does David call him ADON in the RUACH?

If Messiah was a literal son of David from his loins, He could never be the ADON of David. Hence, the birth was from virgin birth without human intervention. 

Luk 3:23 And when יהושע Himself began, He was about thirty years of age, being, as reckoned by law, son of Yosĕph, of Ěli/Heli,

Mat 1:16 And Yaʽaqoḇ brought forth Yosĕph the husband of Miryam, of whom was born יהושע who is called Messiah. 

How could Yoseph have two different fathers Yaaqob and Eli/Heli with two different genealogies?

In Luke 3:23 an emphasis is added to let us know that Yoseph was not the immediate son of Eli/Heli, the emphasis can be drawn out from the writing 'as reckoned by law' Matthew 1:16 shows his immediate father Yaaqob from the lineage of Shelemoh.

To understand the promise made to Daud/David better we need to understand whether the promise made to sit upon his throne and the building of the house was attributed to Shelemoh?

Reading without the emphasis would read Yahusha himself at the beginning of his ministry was about thirty years old, son of Eli." 

The emphasis 'as reckoned by law'  lies in understanding the Torah where a dead brother's wife is given seed by his living brother to keep his name alive in Yasharal. Here is the Torah portion

Deu 25:5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the woman of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her man's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to be his woman, and perform the duty of a man's brother unto her.

Deu 25:6 And it shall be, that the firstborn which she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Yashar’el.

While many argue that Matthew genealogy is of Yoseph and Luke is of Miryiam, it is clear from scriptures that no genealogy is ever listed from a woman. It is always the male, however, scripture does mention some women due to their tribal inheritance which we will look at a bit later.

It is evident that Yoseph's immediate father was Yaaqob (Matt 1:16) because the emphasis added there is different as he was the occupying son of Heli to keep his name alive in Yasharal.

Heli would have died childless and Yaaqob would have given seed to his wife to keep his name alive in Yasharal and hence, the parenthesis in Luke 3:23 'as reckoned by the law'

If you notice that both genealogies were from David who was a Yahudite as well as an Ephrathite. 

You will be shocked to know that Shelmoh is mentioned as son of Bathsheba the wife of Uriyah which shows he was a loan son of Uriyah as per Torah to keep his name (Uriyah's name) alive in Yasharal

****Please note that the genealogy in Luke 3 is until Adam son of Aluahym, I have placed it in reverse and have only accounted from Abraham until Mashiyach to match with the Matthew’s genealogy*****

Mat 1:6  And Yishai brought forth Dawiḏ the sovereign, and Dawiḏ the sovereign brought forth Shelomoh by Uriyah’s wife. 

The physical house was built by Shelemoh but the spiritual house was built by Nathan, David's other son. ZecharYah records Nathan

Zec 12:10 “And I shall pour on the house of Dawiḏ and on the inhabitants of Yerushalayim a spirit of favour and prayers. And they shall look on Me whom they pierced, and they shall mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son. And they shall be in bitterness over Him as a bitterness over the first-born.

Zec 12:11 “In that day the mourning in Yerushalayim is going to be great, like the mourning at Haḏaḏ Rimmon in the valley of Meḡiddo.

Zec 12:12 “And the land shall mourn, every clan by itself: the clan of the house of Dawiḏ by itself, and their women by themselves; the clan of the house of Nathan by itself, and their women by themselves;

Zec 12:13 the clan of the house of Lĕwi by itself, and their women by themselves; the clan of Shimʽi/Shimeon (LXX) by itself, and their women by themselves;

Zec 12:14  all the rest of the clans, every clan by itself, and their women by themselves.

Scripture says Mary was a close relative of Elizabeth (Luke 1: 36), Elizabeth was a Lewite. Didn't we read Boaz was a close relative of Elimelech, while Elimelech was an Ephrathite, it goes on to say Boaz was both Ephrathite as well as Yahudite?

Elizabeth married ZacharYah a priest of the division of AbiYah being a Lewite, while Miryiam was espoused to Yoseph a Yahudite, this is evidence that Miryiam was both a Lewite (being a close relative of Elizabeth) and also a Yahudite

Isa 11:1  And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch/Netser H5342 shall grow out of his roots: 

Luk 1:26  And in the sixth month the messenger Gaḇri’ĕl was sent by Elohim to a city of Galil named Natsareth,
Luk 1:27  to a maiden engaged to a man whose name was Yosĕph, of the house of Dawiḏ. And the maiden’s name was Miryam. 

 

Luk 1:30  And the messenger said to her, “Do not be afraid, Miryam, for you have found favour with Elohim.

Luk 1:31  “And see, you shall conceive in your womb, and shall give birth to a Son, and call His Name יהושע

Luk 1:32  “He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High. And יהוה Elohim shall give Him the throne of His father Dawiḏ.
Luk 1:33  “And He shall reign over the house of Yaʽaqoḇ forever, and there shall be no end to His reign

Note that Miryiam does not say “How will this be, since I am a virgin AND not descended from David?” Moreover, in terms of inheritance, the Torah teaches that if a man dies and leaves no sons but only daughters, the inheritance is passed on through the daughters and their husbands, as long as they marry within their tribe. (See Numbers 27:1–11, 36:1–11). In Miriyam's case, we read about her having only a single sister and no brothers. (John 19:25) So the inheritance does apply to Miryiam

Joh 19:25  And by the stake of יהושע stood His mother, and His mother’s sister, Miryam the wife of Qlophah, and Miryam from Maḡdala.

Num 27:8  “And speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘When a man dies and has no son, then you shall cause his inheritance to pass to his daughter.

What does Matthew 24:36 & Mark 13:32 mean of the Son not knowing the day and the hour?

 Mark13:32  “But  the  time  of  the  coming  of  that  day  and  that  hour,  no  one  knows  --   not  even  the  messengers  in  the  heavens  nor  even  the  Son  --  except  the  Father.” 

Matt 24:36  “But concerning that day and the hour no one knows, not even the messengers of the heavens, but My Father only

Scriptures read at face value without a scriptural understanding will result in different interpretations.

There are three interpretations in Christendom carried over to Hebrew mentality

1. Trinitarian view: Messiah was hybrid, in human body he chose not to know and in spirit He knows

2. Unitarian: Messiah was a created being not knowing as he can only do what he sees His Father doing

3. Oneness: Messiah emptied himself when he came on earth and hence, he didn't know when in human body

All 3 views are wrong as they lack scriptural reasoning and understanding

The renewed testament if read in isolation from Old covenant which is everlasting, many errors are concluded. The context here is the Second coming of Mashiyach and the events that must take place before He returns.

Without understanding the appointment with Yahuah one would never understand why there is a need to get back into the Shemitah which seems to be lost.

Shemitah: The Shemitah was a sacred seven year custom that was put into practice by the Hebrew communities which had the explicit purpose of forgiving all the debts that accumulated during the previous 7 years.

The beginning of Shemitah is seen in the commands to observe the muaedim/appointed times of Yahuah as stated in Lev 23.

Mashiyach fulfilled the spring feasts/appointed times literally.

He died on Passover day and became the Passover Lamb (1Corn 5:7)

Mashiyach was the unleavened bread who came down from heaven and slept 3 days and 3 nights burying our leaven i Himself in the depths of the earth (1Corin 5:7-8, John 6)

He rose from the dead exactly when the Shabbat was transitioning to morrow after the Shabbat being the first fruits.

1Corn 15: 20  But now Messiah has been raised from the dead, and has become the first-fruit of those having fallen asleep.

He walked 40 days after his resurrection with the talmidim/disciples after he rose from the dead.

Acts 1:3  to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them for forty days, speaking concerning the reign of Elohim.

He poured out His Ruach exactly on the 50th day from firstfruits and 10th day after He ascended into the shamayim/heaven .While He literally fulfilled the spring feasts, the fall feasts are yet to be fulfilled.The fall feasts are related to his Second coming beginning with the blowing of the trumpets i.e. the appointed time of blowing of the trumpets

1Thess 4:15  For this we say to you by the word of the Master, that we, the living who are left over at the coming of the Master shall in no way go before those who are asleep 16  Because the Master Himself shall come down from heaven with a shout, with the voice of a chief messenger, and with the trumpet of Elohim, and the dead in Messiah shall rise first. 17  Then we, the living who are left over, shall be caught away together with them in the clouds to meet the Master in the air – and so we shall always be with the Master.

This is followed by the Day of Atonement, when Yasharal will receive the forgiveness and incorporation to His former estate, when He receives His inheritance in Mashiyach. When the Gentiles who are Yasharal in dispersion will receive the true tribe name 

Followed by the feast of Tabernacles i.e. the marriage supper of the Lamb. The tabernacle of Yahuah will everlastingly be with man.

How was the feast/appointed time of blowing of trumpets in the 7th month observed?

Lev 23:24  “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘In the seventh new moon, on the first day of the new moon, you have a rest, a remembrance of Teruʽah, c a set-apart gathering.

 25  ‘You do no servile work, and you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה.’ ”

It was on sighting of the new moon witness that the trumpets were blowing announcing the beginning of the seventh month or feast of trumpets.

What is significant of the Angels or the Son not knowing the day or the hour and what does it mean?

The plague of thick darkness for three days:

Exo 10: 21  And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Stretch out your hand toward the heavens, and let there be darkness over the land of Mitsrayim, even a darkness which is felt.”

 22  And Mosheh stretched out his hand toward the heavens, and there was thick darkness in all the land of Mitsrayim for three days.

23  They did not see one another, nor did anyone rise from his place for three days, while all the children of Yisra’ĕl had light in their dwellings.

While there is no direct reference in scriptures on three days of darkness, we must look at historical evidence of what happened in Mitsrayim and how it relates to end times

There are various scriptures indicating the sun will turn black and the moon not give its light. Here are a few

Rev 6:12  And I looked when He opened the sixth seal and saw a great earthquake came to be. And the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood.

Joel 3:15  Sun and moon shall become dark, and stars shall withdraw their brightness.

 16  And יהוה shall roar from Tsiyon, and give forth His voice from Yerushalayim. And the heavens and earth shall shake, but יהוה shall be a refuge for His people

Its called the Day of Yahuah

Joel 2:1  Blow a shophar in Tsiyon, and sound an alarm in My set-apart mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the earth tremble, for the day of יהוה is coming, for it is near: 2  a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness, like the morning clouds spread over the mountains – a people many and strong, the like of whom has never been, nor shall there ever be again after them, to the years of many generations.

Zech 14: 5  And you shall flee to the valley of My mountain – for the valley of the mountains reaches to Atsal. And you shall flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziyah sovereign of Yehuḏah. And יהוה my Elohim shall come – all the set-apart ones with You. 6  And in that day it shall be: there is no light, it is dark. 7  And it shall be one day which is known to יהוה, neither day nor night, but at evening time there shall be light.

Isaiah 13:9  See, the day of יהוה is coming, fierce, with wrath and heat of displeasure, to lay the earth waste, and destroy its sinners from it. 10  For the stars of the heavens and their constellations do not give off their light. The sun shall be dark at its rising, and the moon not send out its light. 11  “And I shall punish the world for its evil, and the wrong for their crookedness, and shall put an end to the arrogance of the proud, and lay low the pride of the ruthless.

While the spiritual fulfilment is in progress as most of Yasharal is in apostasy, the literal will happen known as the Day of Yahuah.

The ninth plague in Mitsrayim was this plague of thick darkness when the constellations ceased giving light over the land of Mitsrayim while Yasharal had light in their dwelling.

How can we know that this will be a three days period?

Mashiyach in Matthew 24 speaks of the sign of Yonah which he literally fulfilled by being three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 

Hos 6:1  ‘Come, and let us turn back to יהוה. For He has torn but He does heal us, He has stricken but He binds us up. 2  After two days He shall revive us, on the third day He shall raise us up, so that we live before Him.

While Mashiyach went through the three days and nights of darkness in Sheol, he brings us through His death into His resurrection, into eternal life through Him.

There was a 3 hours literal darkness when Mashiyach hung on the stake (from 12pm to 3pm) which is also significant of the 'Day and the hour'

Hos 6 speaks of us returning to Yahuah to be healed after being torn by Him, to be bound up and in the third day/ bayom shalashay he will raise us up and we shall live before Him

ZacharYah says in 14:7 and its shall be achad yom which is KNOWN TO YAHUAH

The word achad can be translated as One or to unify. We will understand what this means in a bit but whats important to know is that it is a yom/day known to Yahuah.

What is the sign of appointed time/ feast of Trumpets? The sighting of the New Moon. But when the sun and moon and stars will not give their light, how will the witness watchers announce the trumpets?

The Yahudite Midrash says there were two witnesses who waited for the sighting of the new moon on their watch post and would report the sighting to the High Priest and immediately the trumpets would be blown on their witness

Remember the two witnesses spoken of in Revelation 11? The living creature made war and overcame them and their dead bodies were lying on the streets of Yerushalam which spiritually is called Mitsrayim and Sodom, where our Master was impaled. For three and a half days their bodies were lying and the Ruach of life entered them and they were taken into the shamayim/heavens

 Rev11:8  and their dead bodies lie in the street of the great city which spiritually is called Seḏom and Mitsrayim, where also our Master was impaled,9  and some of the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations see their dead bodies for three and a half days, and not allow their dead bodies to be placed into tombs, 10  and those dwelling on the earth rejoice over them and exult. And they shall send gifts to each other, because these two prophets tortured those dwelling on the earth. 11  And after the three and a half days a spirit of life from Elohim entered into them, and they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. 12  And they heard a loud voice from the heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” And they went up into the heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.

While there is a lot of speculation on who these two witnesses are as some say Alayahu and Chanoch will return as two witnesses, some say Mosheh and Alayahu are the two witnesses, these all men died and no man has ever ascended into heaven but the Son who came down from heaven and ascended.

The two witnesses are representing the Torah and the Prophets whose witness Yerushalam on earth refused and Shaul likened the Yerushalam in his days as Hagar

Gal 4:24  This is allegorical, for these are the two covenants: one indeed from Mount Sinai which brings forth slavery, which is Haḡar, 25  for this Haḡar is Mount Sinai in Araḇia, and corresponds to Yerushalayim which now is, and is in slavery with her children. 26  But the Yerushalayim above is free, which is the mother of us all.

Hence, the two witnesses is allegorical to the two fold witness of the Father and the Son in the Torah and the Prophets. John gives us additional information on the days that after three and a half days the Ruach of life quickened the two witnesses

Another half day is added here whereas Hoshea says in the third day. Is this a contradiction? These are spiritual things and need spiritual discernment.

Achad yom: What happened on Day One in Genesis 1?

3  And Elohim said, “Let light come to be,” and light came to be. 4  And Elohim saw the light, that it was good. And Elohim separated the light from the darkness. 5  And Elohim called the light ‘day’ and the darkness He called ‘night.’ And there came to be evening and there came to be morning, first day/ achad yom

Shaul tells us what the Divine utterance means.

2Corin 4:5  For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Messiah יהושע the Master, and ourselves your servants for the sake of יהושע. 6  For Elohim, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts for the enlightening of the knowledge of the esteem of Elohim in the face of יהושע Messiah.

The esteem of Alahym shines forth through the face of Yahusha Messiah who is face to face with His creation.

Gen 1:3 shows the whole earth and heavens were lit up with Yahusha the Light, the sun moon stars were not yet created until day four. 

John in his basharah and letter introduces Yahusha as the Dabar of Life, the Light.

John 1:4  In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5  And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. 6  There was a man sent from Elohim, whose name was Yoḥanan. 7  This one came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all might believe through him. 8  He was not that Light, but that he might bear witness of that Light. 9  He was the true Light, which enlightens every man, coming into the world. 10  He was in the world, and the world came to be through Him, and the world did not know Him.

In the first letter John says in 1:1  Alaph Tau was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Dabar of life:

The whole creation lit up the world until the three and a half days, when Yahuah was working in finishing creating the sun, moon and stars and appointing their order for His appointed times

Psalms 104:19  He made the moon for appointed times; The sun knows its going down.

Gen 1: 14  And Elohim said, “Let lights come to be in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and appointed times, and for days and years,

The achad yom Light was spiritually separated from the thick darkness while the literal lights which came as signs and appointed times came with the literal separation of light from darkness seen to the physical eyes.

The two witnesses were revived after three and a half days and now here it will be different, coz the sun, moon and stars will cease to give light and then Yahusha ha Mashiyach will shine forth as the LIGHT as was on achad yom until the rebiy yom /fourth day

The word rebiy /רבעי in Hebrew means four. Its rooted in the word Rabbi/רבי which means Teacher

This was the signs in the shamayim Yahuah placed in His wisdom, that those seeing the signs should turn to the true Rabbi who is the Sun of Righteousness with healing in His wings

Mal 4: 2  “But to you who fear My Name the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings. And you shall go out and leap for joy like calves from the stall.

 The arrangement of the signs of appointed times was completed on the rebiy yom/ fourth day.

Remember the wise men, they saw His star in the east and came to see Yahusha. The signs led them to Mashiyach to worship Him. Now that the sun, moon and stars would be darkened, no one would know the day and the hour which the Father put in His own power, because there was no Son until the birth of the man child. Yahusha prayed that He would receive the same esteem as He had being as the One true Alahym before the world was established

John 17: 5  “And now, esteem Me with Yourself, Father, with the esteem which I had with You before the world was.

The Son was given in a lower esteem in the Order/Dabar of Yahuah and everything fell in line as per the Order/Dabar including the manifestation of Yahuah Himself in a low human body as the Son.

In the beginning was the Dabar/Order or WORD and in the Order was made flesh and dwelt/tabernacled with us. Yahuah was now face to face with His creation in Mashiyach, His esteem being radiated through a human body which was prepared in the Order

With the no sighting of the new moon as the sun, moon and stars being darkened and the two witnesses being dead. There was no one to report to the High Priest the Day of return of Yahuah.

The entire earthly pattern is turned to Hagar into slavery.  

Then comes the Rabbi as Sun of Righteousness with healing in His wings letting the entire creation know that He is Yahuah Himself. The heavenly pattern consummation takes place so that Yahuah will be all in all

1Corin 15:27  For “He has put all under His feet.” Psa. 8:6 But when He says “all are put under Him,” it is clear that He who put all under Him is excepted. 28  And when all are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself shall also be subject to Him who put all under Him, in order that Elohim be all in all.

The Son will be revealed as the One true Alahym.

1John 5:20  And we know that the Son of Elohim has come and has given us an understanding, so that we might know the true One. And we are in the true One, in His Son יהושע Messiah. This is the true Elohim and everlasting life.

John says we are in the true One/achad who is Mashiyach and this is the true Alahym and everlasting life

Hence, the ADON Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the CHIEF MESSENGER. Who was this Chief Messenger? The Messenger of Yahuah who was Yahuah Himself leading Yasharal in the wilderness by a pillar of Cloud by Day and Pillar of fire by night.

Shaul further says in 1Thess 4:15 that He will sound the trumpet of Alahym as He is the Watcher which Daniel spoke  of One coming down from heaven to bring down the king of Babylon and his empire until 7 times pass by

Daniel 4: 13  “In the visions of my head on my bed, I looked and saw a Watcher, even a set-apart one, coming down from the heavens. 14  “He cried aloud and said this, ‘Hew down the tree and cut off its branches, strip off its leaves and scatter its fruit. Let the beasts flee from under it, and the birds from its branches. 15  But leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field. And let it be wet with the dew of the heavens, and let his portion be with the beasts on the grass of the earth. 16  Let his heart be changed from man’s, let him be given the heart of a beast, and seven times pass over him. 17  This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the command by the word of the set-apart ones, so that the living know that the Most High is ruler in the reign of men, and gives it to whomever He wishes, and sets over it the lowest of men

The day and the hour will be a consummation of us being translated from adopted sons into the sons of the living Alahym with the Son Himself being revealed as the One true Alahym whose Light will shine forever with no time keepers or signs required

Act 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, ADONAI, will you at this time restore again the Kingdom to Yashar’el? Act 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in his own power.

The Father has put in His own power when the Son subjects the kingdom to be Alahym all in all.
