Religion, like its brother, politics, is all about “spiritualism,” and “casting spells” on an unsuspecting public. False prophets claim to speak for God and yet their every proclamation serves to block His light and obliterate His truth. The abominations of the Gentile nations replace the message of Yahowah’s relationship and salvation. A cloud forms over the people which is so dense, visibility is diminished to spiritual blindness.

The abomination of ‘anan explains how Islam clouds the mind, rendering a Muslim unable to think clearly or rationally. Nachash is also central to satanic deception. Muhammad consulted soothsayers. His Qur’an is filled with astrology as Allah swears by the constellations, the sun and the moon. These concepts form the basis of the Qur’an’s last two surahs which are whispering odes to Satan.

Muhammad is shown throughout the Islamic Hadith practicing magic and dealing with spells but it was his “chabar cheber” eloquence that made his message so lethal. I offer this twist on the false prophet’s favored occupation as a confession: “The Prophet said, ‘I have been given the keys of eloquent speech and given victory with terror.’” (Bukhari:V9B87N127) He spoke these words as he looted Christians for the first time.

Let’s see what Yahowah had to say about such things: “or the practice of sorcery and witchcraft (kashaph – the reciter and whisperer of spells, one who practices magic, communication with the Devil, anyone who relies upon demonic spirits to gain insights and power), or a uniter and joiner, one who binds together (chabar – one who charms others into joining, leaguing together and forming a religion; one who fascinates with eloquence—spellbinding them)…” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:11)

This is the heart and soul of the problem. Qacam, false occult prophets engaged in divination for the purpose of enlightenment (read: religions based on Qabbalah) and ‘anan, covert actors and false prophets who cover over and cloud, obscuring and enchanting (read: politicians, academia and the media) have taken us.

Religion and Politics are evil. Kashaph is Satanism: “communion with the Devil.” Kashaph is “the reliance on demonic spirits to garner insights and power.” Chabar is politicized religion. To chabar is to bind. Merriam-Webster tells us that the English word “religion” is based upon the Latin religare, “to bind and restrain.” In the context of this list, and adjacent to kashaph and chabar, it confirms that God is intolerant of religion and politics, and that He sees them as Satan’s tools. He hates them and wants it banned. And that’s a sobering thought.

Just as every reference to kashaph is Satanic, every nuance of chabar is religious, if not poligious. Since they are on Yahowah’s list of condemned abominations, let’s uncover chabar’s full meaning in the context of kashaph. It is defined as: “to league together and have fellowship with Satan, to use magic spells to bind people, uniting them together as allies.” It is “an idolatrous act, diametrically opposed to God’s revelation from His appointed prophets,” so as to be “joined to false gods, idols, and ambitions, forsaking God.” To chabar is “to pile up words in an enchanting fashion” and “to charm individuals into forming and joining associations, tying people to people, people to governments, and governments to governments.” Chabar is used to describe “priests who join men together in political ventures, social endeavors, and military campaigns.”

Simply stated, to be kashaph chabar is to be bound religiously, politically, and socially with Satan. It is what the world is becoming. It is where our leaders—political, religious, academic, and journalistic—are leading us. This is not good.

False teaching, religion and politics aren’t the only things Yahowah hates. “…or one who consults with dead spirits (sha’al ‘owb – one who evokes or consults with the diseased; the act of calling upon, citing, and recalling dead spirits for approval and for support; one who seeks permission from ghosts; a medium or spiritualist, a necromancer who conjures and communicates with the dead, mumbling hollow words ignorantly after consulting with familiar/demonic spirits)…” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:11)

The Roman Catholic practice of canonizing saints and praying to them, and their Rosary to Mary, are prime examples of sha’al ‘owb. It is “necromancy—the conjuration of the spirits of the dead for the purpose of influencing the course of events.” To “conjure” is “to summon and earnestly entreat by invocation for a benefit.” An incantation is “a ritualistic formula of words, written and recited, that are designed to produce a particular effect.” Necromancy, conjuring, and incantations are usually associated with the Devil. God does not like them or him.

Islam’s possessed prophet beguiled many into submission by sha’al ‘owb, mumbling the hollow words of demons. So blatant was he, two Qur’an surahs have jinn—Arabic for demons—endorse his dark and demented message.

But more than anything, Muhammad was a schemer. In Hebrew he was a yidda’ony, a “con whose knowledge comes from demonic relationships, someone who influences and damns by invoking evil spirits, conjuring miracles through reliance upon the Devil.” Not surprisingly, yidda’ony was on Yahowah’s list of abominations: “…or a conman who beguiles by summoning demonic spirits (yidda’ony – a schemer who influences based upon his personal knowledge of and relationship with evil spirits), or people who cause the premature death of others in association with the destructive worship of heathen deities (darash muth – one who oppresses and assassinates, seeking and requiring death based upon a fixation on killing, pain, dead bodies, hellish tortures, and wanton destruction). All who do (‘asah – act this way, perform, celebrate, ordain, institute, profit by, or observe) these things are an abomination, hated and detested (tow’ebah – repulsive, loathed to the point of absolute intolerance, seen as idolatrous, abhorrent and disgusting) by Yahowah.” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:11-12)

And while yidda’ony defines Muhammad’s character and the source of the Qur’an’s inspiration, it was Muhammad’s dark side, his “darash muth” that should cause us to be repulsed and shudder. Allah’s messenger spoke for the dead, twisting and convoluting the words of the Jewish patriarchs and prophets to create a false form of worship. And worse than any man who ever lived, Muhammad tread upon those he killed. He ordered countless assassinations, demonstrating a lust for murder, hellish tortures, even gloating over dead bodies and the destruction of entire settlements. If you doubt this conclusion, consider reading the aftermath of the Battle of the Full Moon in “The War That Made a Profit” chapter of Prophet of Doom.

But Muhammad wasn’t alone. While he may have been the worst of a bad lot, man’s history, ancient and modern, is littered with political and religious deceivers, men who leave a sea of corpses in their wake.

Everything in this long list of repulsive religious and political practices causes God to hate the practitioner. Since nothing could be worse, let’s summarize what He said. “You shall not accept or imitate, even become accustomed to, observe, celebrate, profit from, ordain or institute any of the disgusting religious ways, abhorrent rites, intolerable and loathsome rituals, or repulsive festivals of the Gentile nations. There shall not be found or encountered among you one causing his son or daughter to pass over, perishing in, fire, practicing divination, false prophecy, witchcraft, soothsaying, or occult, magic, predicting the future, spiritualism, or astrology, covert behavior, one who covers up, clouds, or obscures, an enchanter, magician, one who casts spells, fortuneteller, witch, one who communes with demonic spirits, a uniter or joiner, one who binds together, charming others into leaguing in concert and forming a religion, calling upon or citing dead spirits for approval and support, a medium or necromancer, a conman who beguiles by summoning evil, a schemer who influences based upon his personal knowledge of and relationship with demonic spirits, or people who cause the premature death of others in association with the destructive worship of heathen deities, one oppresses and assassinates, seeking and requiring death based upon a fixation on pain, dead bodies, hellish tortures, and wanton destruction.”

Yahowah has drawn a line in the sand. You can either side with Him or with the Adversary. On one side of this divide you will find a solitary door which leads to a personal relationship based upon love, truth, light, and life. Outside, you will be despised, seen as unclean, groping in the darkness of religion and wallowing in the deception of politics. Death will be your destiny.

You may not like the idea of God being intolerant, of God hating men and women, of God being repulsed by politics and religion. But what you think doesn’t matter. What God says does. These are God’s rules and He has every right to impose them. For without them, all the light that is visible to men would be swallowed in darkness. The lone doorway to His home would be hidden, covered over and buried under piles of political and religious refuse and rubble.

The reason Yahowah is intolerant of people who accept and imitate misleading ways, rituals, and festivals, the reason He is repulsed by those who participate in politics and religion, is because these things are not victimless crimes. Countless generations and entire civilizations have been lost to Satan as a result. When the truth becomes muddled, revised, twisted, and blended with lies, the Devil smiles.

The Creator and Savior said: “Because (galal – on the account of, for the reason that) these things and people are an abomination, hated and disgusting (tow’ebah) Yahowah your God will dispossess and disinherit (yarash – making them destitute of) them from His presence.” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:12)

That’s all there is to it. Engage in the abominations of religion and politics on behalf of Satan and God will simply write you out of His will. You will be disinherited.

If you want to be included in Yahowah’s eternal family, you are expected to be sincere. “Be upright, acceptable, and sound (tamym – moral and truthful, demonstrating integrity and sincerity, having a purity of purpose, abstaining from fellowship with the wicked) with (‘im – in association with, experiencing a relationship with) Yahowah (efei), your God (‘elohym).” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:13)

The Yahuwdym would not heed this advice. Eventually, Yahowah would be compelled to divorce them, prompting God to invite an ever increasing percentage of gowym into His family. But over time Gentiles returned to their old ways, making these instructions as pertinent today as they were three-thousand years ago when Moseh delivered them in the wilderness.

“For (ky – indeed) these people from different races and places (gowym – foreign nations), those which beneficially (ha ‘eleh ‘asher) you (‘atah) shall dispossess (yaras – actually drive out) them (‘eth). To those who (‘el) practice sorcery, covertly covering over, clouding and obscuring things as false prophets inspired by evil spirits (‘anan – conjuring up spirits of the dead and supernatural forces as spellbinders, spiritualists and astrologists in league with demons), and (wa) to (‘el) pagan prophets in association with false gods (qacam – those who engage in religion, witchcraft, soothsaying, and the occult) they listen (shama’),…” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:14)

It bears repeating because Yahowah has repeated it. Qacam and ‘anan underlie the poligious doctrines based on Qabalah, Rabbinical Judaism, Christianity, the Illuminati, Communism, Socialism, Fascism, Nazism, Freemasonry, and Secular Humanism’s Political Correctness. Occult prophets inspired by pagan deities have engaged in clouding minds by obscuring reality under the guise of enlightenment to propagate misleading religious and political schemes – the catalysts behind their New World Order which will ultimately usher in the Tribulation. These men and women are ‘anan: covert actors and false prophets who cover up the truth with lies, enchanting by obscuring. The political, religious, academic, and media spokesmen ‘anan – cloud the atmosphere sufficiently to block God’s light, diminishing visibility to the point the masses are enslaved by the masters.

Also interesting, the verb, ‘anan, was scribed using an extremely rare poel stem. It reveals that “false prophets who covertly cover up and obscure” Yahowah’s Towrah – Teaching on behalf of “demonic spirits, religious saints, and spellbinding politicians and preachers” suffer the effect of the verb’s action, indicating that in these matters, it really is the case of the blind leading the blind.

The bottom line is: Religion and Politics are evil. God is intolerant of them. Do not listen to preachers or to politicians. Yah sees these as Satan’s most beguiling venues. They are an abomination. Yahowah despises them and wants the perpetrators muted and the populous warned. “But (wa) you (‘atah) should not do likewise (lo’ ka). Yahowah (efei), your God (‘elohym), has not granted or given this to you (natan la).” (Dabarym 18:14)

God is reminding us that He dislikes false prophets, religious and political leaders, so much, He won’t tolerate them in His presence, near His people, or in His land. They will have no place in Yahowah’s eternal family. If you are going to go out and explore, wipe your feet before you come home.

With the audience designated, the purpose established, and Yahowah’s preferences clearly articulated, we arrive at the statement pertaining to Yahowsha’ that led us to this Towrah – Teaching from Moseh. What follows is God’s plan, His solution to human corruptions:

“A prophet (naby – one who through inspiration describes the future; from naba’, one who is under the influence of the divine spirit) from your midst (min qereb – from your core and womb; from qarab, one who becomes present, approaches and draws near), from your brethren (min ach – from your blood relatives, brothers, kin, and countrymen), similar to me (ka – like me, according to me, for the purpose of comparison to me; scribed as kamowy – from ken, to be the upright one, a true and honest pillar, and kuwn, to be manifest, established, appointed, confirmed, and fashioned after me), Yahowah (efei), your God (‘elohym), will raise up for you to approach (quwm – He will come to stand upright beside you, continuing to restore and establish you). To him (‘el – to God) you should chose to genuinely and continually listen (shama’ – you should of your own volition always pay attention to receive the message (qal relational stem calling for a literal interpretation, imperfect conjunction denoting an ongoing action with unfolding consequences, and paragogic nun form which conveys volition)).” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:15)

There are several ways to translate this sentence because in Ancient and Paleo-Hebrew, punctuation and capitalization did not exist, and sentence order was not always indicative of who or what was being described. So Yahowah could have been telling the Yisra’elites that the one who would speak by inspiration would be a prophet akin Moseh (and thus inspired by Yah), an Yisra’elite like Moseh (and thus Hebrew), or both. Yahowsha’ met these criteria.

However “me” could just as easily have been “Me.” Throughout this public declaration, Moseh was speaking the words Yahowah inspired him to say. So if the speaker is Yahowah (as it clearly is in the next verse), then we’re being told that the Ma’aseyah will be fashioned after Yahowah—that He will be a manifestation of God, Himself. It could also be saying that Yahowah will serve as the source of his inspiration, and even that as a prophet, he won’t so much be predicting the future as reporting on what he has already experienced and witnessed. Yahowsha’ met these criteria as well.

From the literalistic approach of an interlinear, this verse concludes by presenting a startling truth: “The God of you, to Him you should listen.” Yahowsha’ is the human manifestation of God. Yahowah is saying that He Himself is the one being predicted and the One who must be acknowledged.

If “me” is “Me,” and thus invocative of the human manifestation of God, the verse which follows becomes especially poignant. According to the Towrah, the Yisra’elites had complained that in His undiminished Spiritual state, the brilliance of Yahowah’s light and His piercing voice were too much for them—overwhelming them, frightening them. So Yahowah listened to their grievance and decided to tone Himself down, to expose Himself and to speak to men as a man.

“According to everything which you inquired about and requested (ka kol ‘asher sha’al – considering all that you questioned and requested) from an association with (min ‘im – in the proximity of) Yahowah (efei), your God (‘elohym), near Horeb (ba Choreb – in Horeb, from charab – that which is desolate, dried up, wasted, and lifeless) in the day (ba yowm) of the assembly (ha qahal – the gathering), which led to saying (la ‘amar), ‘I don’t ever want to hear again (lo’ yasap la shama’ – I never again want to listen to (hiphil stem suggests that Yah’s voice is difficult to resist, imperfect conjugation designates the continual and ongoing nature of this request, and jussive form denoting the desire of the speaker)) the voice (‘eth qowl – the sound of) of Yahowah (efei), our God (‘elohym), and also with this the great (wa ‘eth ha gadowl ha ze’th – this enormous in magnitude and extent) fire (‘esh – flame, light, blaze, or supernatural theophany), I don’t ever want to see it again (lo’ ‘owd ra’ah – I never again want to witness it (qal imperfect cohortative)), lest I die (wa lo’ muwth – or I will actually cease to exist),’ so then (wa) Yahowah (efei) said to me (‘el):

‘They have successfully and thoroughly (yatab – they have completely achievedtheir intent of influencing Me, and have achieved something good and valuable, by way of what they have (hiphil stem describes the subject influencing the object, perfect conjugation denotes completely)) spoken (‘asher dabar – communicated regarding the relationship (piel stem conveys the idea that Yahowah suffered the effect and was influenced by these statements)). I will take a stand, standing upright and rising up before them (quwm la – I will establish and confirm, restoring by supporting) an inspired prophet (naby – one who proclaims My message) from among (min qereb) their brothers (‘ah – speaking of a blood relative) like you (ka –  resembling you, comparable to you, and closely related to you; scribed as kemowd – in a particular point in time).

And I will actually place (natan – I will choose to completely give and commit, totally and genuinely entrusting, bestowing, and delivering (qal perfect consecutive)) My words (dabar – My message, advice, accounts, statements, promises, declarations, communication, and counsel) in His mouth (ba peh – in His speech and spirit). And (wa) He shall speak the word (dabar – He will choose to communicate perfectly and completely, thereby totally influencing (piel perfect consecutive)) of God to them (‘el), according to (‘eth – along with and in association with) everything that beneficially and relationally (kol ‘asher) I direct and instruct Him (tsawah – I continually enjoin, authorize, influence, set-up, and appoint, even as I cry out to Him who I have sent (piel imperfect)).” (Dabarym / Words / Deuteronomy 18:16-18)

God has said that He will qowl: “take a stand to confirm” all that had been written, ultimately “standing upright” on Mount Mowryah in support of His Towrah’s promises on Passover, only to “rise” from His fulfillment of Unleavened Bread in She’owl to celebrate FirstFruits. Qowl describes the Ma’aseyah’s redemptive mission. It also embodies the meaning of the Upright One who would come as a prophet, sharing Yahowah’s “dabar – message using His words.” Because men complained that Yahowah’s voice and full radiance overwhelmed their senses, God would, and now has, manifest Himself in the form most agreeable to men: man.
