His symbols are: Light, the Bread of Life, the Upright Pillar, the Living Waters of the Set-Apart Spirit, the Rock of our Salvation, the Word, and the Family. In the \u201c<em>Sheba<\/em> \u2013 Seven\u201d chapter I made the connection between these and Yahowah\u2019s seven spirits as they are depicted in Isaiah 11:1-2.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201ceastern sea\u201d is the Dead Sea, so this is another metaphor\u2014in addition to being a literal geographic reference. The earthquake will create an exit to the sea for the salt and mineral-saturated waters which are fed by the Jordan River. Opening what is currently the world\u2019s deepest fault, would cause what is now dead to support life. These living waters would flow down from <em>Yaruwshalaim<\/em>, which is perched several thousand feet above the mouth of the Dead Sea, and ultimately flow out through the Gulf of Aqaba and into the Red Sea. Moses and the Yisra\u2019elites crossed the Gulf of Aqaba into the Arabian Peninsula when fleeing Pharaoh during the Exodus. The waters which Yahowah parted to save his people, will save them again.<\/p>\n<p>There may be another layer to the symbolism here. While I could be wrong, it is something to ponder. The \u201csea\u201d is an oft-used Scriptural metaphor for Gentiles. Yahuwdym crossed the Jordan River Valley just above the Dead Sea to enter the Promised Land. By indicating that \u201chalf of the waters\u201d will flow in each direction we may have some indication as to how many Gowym\/Gentiles will be saved at the conclusion of the Tribulation. That may be why <em>yam<\/em> was qualified by <em>\u2018acharown<\/em>, meaning \u201cfinal or last,\u201d of the Gentiles. This reference is used both with regard to the \u201cfinal generation\u201d experiencing the Holocaust in Psalm 102 and of those who witness the rebirth of Israel, being \u201cthe last generation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We have already been told that only one in three Yahuwdym will remain to see Yahowsha\u2019s return\u2014all of whom will be reconciled and thus saved. That would be approximately five-million souls depending on who qualifies as a Jew, and how many Jews survive the increased anti-Semitism which will erupt between now and then. If I\u2019m reading this correctly, the Laodicean Ekklesia harvest might be the same size. If this is a reasonable interpretation of why Yahowah shared this accounting, it suggests that of the seven-billion people who will be alive at the inception of the Tribulation in November of 2026, as few as five-million Gentile souls will enter the Millennial Sabbath. That would mean that 99.9% of humankind will perish during the seven years of wars and plagues. If that\u2019s the case, it explains why Yahowah and Yahowsha\u2019 refer to this time as a \u201cday in which the whole world will mourn.\u201d And it is why he said in Matthew 24:22 that \u201cunless those days are cut short, no life would be spared.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This conclusion is somewhat validated by the completion of the 8<sup>th<\/sup> verse. While <em>qays<\/em> is often translated \u201csummer\u201d and <em>chorep<\/em> rendered \u201cwinter,\u201d both terms speak of different harvests. <strong>\u201cIt shall exist <\/strong>(<em>hayah<\/em>) <strong>with <\/strong>(<em>ba<\/em>) <strong>the summer fruit<\/strong> (<em>qays<\/em>) <strong>as with <\/strong>(<em>ba<\/em>) <strong>the autumn harvest<\/strong> (<em>chorep<\/em>)<strong>.\u201d<\/strong> (Zakaryahuw \/ Remember Yahowah \/ Zechariah 14:8) <em>Qays<\/em> is used repeatedly in Scripture in reference to the summer harvest of figs and of wine. It serves as a symbol of saved, or harvested, Yahuwdym in Amos 8, Isaiah 16, and Jeremiah 40 and 48. The most prominent autumn harvest depicted in Scripture is <em>Taruw\u2019ah<\/em>. It is a mostly Gentile gathering known as the \u201crapture.\u201d So, it might be symbolic of there being as many <em>Gowym<\/em> saved as Israelites.<\/p>\n<p>A literal interpretation of this verse would indicate that after Yahowsha\u2019s return, summer and winter will be the same. It will be like the Garden of Eden, which was bathed in dew but bereft of rain, and so mild year round, day and night, clothing was optional. During the Millennial Sabbath which follows five days later on Tabernacles, conditions will replicate those enjoyed by Adam and Chawah.<\/p>\n<p>The Millennial Sabbath\u00a0 represents the manifestation of the \u201cKingdom of God.\u201d <strong>\u201cAnd then<\/strong> (<em>wa<\/em>) <strong>Yahowah<\/strong> (efei) <strong>will exist <\/strong>(<em>hayah<\/em>) <strong>as king<\/strong> (<em>melek<\/em> \u2013 the one who reigns, from <em>malak<\/em>, meaning the counselor and adviser) <strong>over<\/strong> (<em>\u2018al<\/em>) <strong>the whole<\/strong> (<em>kol<\/em>) <strong>world<\/strong> (<em>\u2018erets<\/em> \u2013 earth and land)<strong>.

But now, with only Spiritual souls remaining, there is no reason to ratchet down His power or to restrict Himself to a human anatomy. As such, God will only be known as Yahowah, and not as Yahowsha\u2019. That is not to say that the physical manifestation of God we know as Yahowsha\u2019 will not continue to exist as the Son set apart from the Father, only that the Son and Spirit will be referred to by the same name: \u201cYahowah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That is not to say that God will abandon His titles. He will still be our Father, Creator, King, and Savior. He is not restricting His use of titles here, just names. We can still call Him \u201cDad\u201d if we wish.<\/p>\n<p>In case you may be wondering, I have as a matter of policy rendered God\u2019s current two names as Yahowah and Yahowsha\u2019 when they appear in the Word and as Yahowah and Yahowsha\u2019 when they are inserted into my commentary. The evidence is overwhelming that the proper pronunciation of God\u2019s name is Yah-oow-eh, transliterated Yahowah. However, that is not how most people spell God\u2019s name when searching for information on Him online. For search engines to direct seekers of truth to this seven-volume study of the Word, Yahowah\u2019s name must appear frequently in the text as it is most commonly searched. Moreover, when we pronounce the \u201cw\u201d correctly, it renders the \u201cuu\u201d sound for which the letter is named.<\/p>\n<p>However, since Yahowah told Moseh that His name was based on the Hebrew verb <em>hayah<\/em>, \u201cto exist,\u201d it is possible that Yah\u2019s name is pronounced Yah-oow-ah. That said, it would also be reasonable to conclude that <em>hayah<\/em> was used to designate the beginning sound of God\u2019s name (Yah) rather than the ending pronunciation, making Yah-oo-eh the best choice. Historical artifacts with Yahowah\u2019s name inscribed on them in other languages seem to prefer the \u201ceh\u201d ending, as does Hebrew grammar.<\/p>\n<p>Next, we learn that Satan\u2019s army will attack Jerusalem from the north, but by so doing, they will be incinerated: <strong>\u201cEncircled<\/strong> (<em>sabab<\/em> \u2013 surrounded and changed)<strong>, the whole<\/strong> (<em>kol<\/em>) <strong>region<\/strong> (<em>\u2018erets<\/em> \u2013 the land) <strong>will be like<\/strong> (<em>ka<\/em> \u2013 will resemble) <strong>a desert wasteland<\/strong> (<em>\u2018arabah<\/em> \u2013 desolate plain) <strong>from<\/strong> (<em>min<\/em>) <strong>Geba\u2019 to<\/strong> (<em>la<\/em>) <strong>Rimmon.<\/strong> <strong>But Yaruwshalaim south<\/strong> (<em>negeb<\/em>) <strong>shall retain her elevated status<\/strong> (<em>ra\u2019am<\/em> \u2013 shall be lifted up) <strong>positioned and placed<\/strong> (<em>tahat<\/em>) <strong>as an established dwelling<\/strong> (<em>yasab<\/em> \u2013 inhabited abode to live) <strong>from the Gate<\/strong> (<em>sa\u2019ar<\/em>) <strong>of Benjamin<\/strong> <strong>to the location<\/strong> (<em>maqom<\/em>) <strong>of the First<\/strong> (<em>ri\u2019son<\/em>) <strong>Gate<\/strong> (<em>sa\u2019ar<\/em>) <strong>to the Corner Gate<\/strong> (<em>pinah sa\u2019ar<\/em>)<strong>, and from Hanan\u2019el\u2019s Tower<\/strong> (<em>migadal<\/em> \u2013 watchtower) <strong>to the wine and olive presses<\/strong> (<em>yeqeb<\/em>) <strong>of the Kings.\u201d<\/strong> (Zakaryahuw \/ Remember Yahowah \/ Zechariah 14:10) While there may be multiple levels of symbolism here, on the surface, Yahowah is telling His family what areas will be safe and which will be death zones.<\/p>\n<p>David \u201cstruck down the Philistines in Geba\u2019\u201d in 2 Samuel 5:25. \u201cGeba\u2019 of Benjamin was punished for all the disgraceful acts that they committed in Yisra\u2019el\u201d in Judges 20:10 (raping and dismembering a concubine and distributing her body parts throughout Israel). The town was six miles northeast of Jerusalem. Following this disgraceful act, the last of Benjamin\u2019s militia fell after \u201cthey fled to the wilderness rock of Rimmon\u201d in Judges 21:45. The \u201crock\u201d was named after the Babylonian, Arabian, Syrian, and Canaanite god of wind, rain, and storms. Rimmon\u2019s rock was six miles northeast of Nazareth, making it 35 miles, north-by-northeast of Jerusalem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBenjamin\u2019s Gate which was by Yahowah\u2019s Temple\u201d was where \u201cJeremiah the prophet was beaten and put in stocks,\u201d in chapter 20, verse 2. He \u201cwas arrested at the Gate of Benjamin\u201d a second time and \u201cturned over to the Chaldeans [Babylonians]\u201d in Jeremiah 37:13. Benjamin\u2019s territory ran horizontally immediately north of Jerusalem starting ten miles west of the city to the point the Jordan River enters the Dead Sea, about twelve miles east. The Corner Gate and the Tower of Hananel are mentioned in Jeremiah 31:38: \u201cBehold, days are coming declares Yahowah when the city will be rebuilt for Yahowah from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At this point, we know that Yahowah\u2019s foes do more than lay siege to Jerusalem. The north rim of the city will be attacked, property will be destroyed, and people will be robbed and raped. But, with God\u2019s direct intervention, much of the city will be spared. <strong>\u201cIn <\/strong>(<em>ba<\/em>) <strong>her<\/strong> (<em>hi<\/em>) <strong>they will live<\/strong> (<em>yasab<\/em> \u2013 will dwell and abide established)<strong>.

This should not be surprising since Yahowah is returning without diminishing His energy. Therefore, anyone not protected by the Set-Apart Spirit\u2019s Garment of Light will instantaneously have \u201ctheir flesh dissolve, melting away while they are standing on their feet.\u201d For those who came to destroy Jerusalem, death will come swiftly and there will be no bodies left to bury.<\/p>\n<p>Revelation tells us that the first of the Tribulation\u2019s wars, Magog, claims the lives of one in four people. The second phase of that war claims a third of those who remain, meaning that 3.5 billion of 7.0 billion souls will succumb. At this point, the plagues begin. Scripture does not specify how many more die, only that 200 million march upon Jerusalem at the end of the Tribulation to wage the battle of Armageddon on the eve of the <em>Miqra\u2019<\/em> of <em>Yowm Kippurym<\/em>.

It speaks of a state of utter bewilderment leading to emotional anguish. Those who were led to believe Allah, Satan, and\/or the Antichrist were God, will be as confused and dismayed as will those who thought there was no god. They will have made a poor choice, and now they will recognize the consequence of this choice: death.<\/p>\n<p>We have several choices with <em>\u2018alah<\/em>. It can be translated \u201cto ascend and be lifted up\u201d and thus \u201cto go up,\u201d but that clearly is the opposite of what is being described. It could be rendered \u201clifting up,\u201d making the sentence: \u201cThey will roar, lifting up hand against hand\u2026\u201d The problem with that is that they have been bound by the hand and <em>\u2018al<\/em> doesn\u2019t mean \u201cagainst\u201d as in hostility, but against as in proximity. So, I think that transliterating, rather than translating, <em>\u2018alah<\/em> as Allah following \u201croar and shout out,\u201d is justified.<\/p>\n<p>While Allah is the principle name of Muhammad\u2019s Qur\u2019anic god, a dark spirit modeled after Satan, Muslims have been leading a worldwide disinformation campaign to convince everyone that Allah is actually the Arabic word for \u201cGod.\u201d As such, Allah would be an ideal moniker for the Antichrist, and Islam would be the perfect religion to beguile people and compel them to fight. To this end, based upon the oldest manuscripts, Revelation\u2019s famous \u201c666\u201d passage might well read \u201cthe multitude of Allah,\u201d rather than designating a number. So what I\u2019m saying is that the \u201cmark of the beast\u201d could well be Allah\u2019s name written in Arabic. When you examine the oldest manuscripts of this passage, that is the most logical conclusion based upon what we find there.<\/p>\n<p>Depending upon how it is vocalized, <em>\u2018alah<\/em> can also be translated \u201cto lift oneself up,\u201d meaning to be \u201cprideful, haughty and braggadocios\u201d\u2014descriptive of Satan and his Islamic followers. This is the essence of the Islamic Prayer of Fear roared out before every terrorist attack: \u201cAllahu Akbar!\u2014Allah is Greater!\u201d than Yahowah\u2014or so they believe.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2018Alah<\/em> may also be translated \u201cto be absent and driven away\u201d which is to be separated from God\u2014which is the result of Islam. <em>\u2018Alah<\/em> conveys \u201cto be conscripted and carried away,\u201d or \u201cto be compelled into turning away.\u201d In this vein, it means \u201cto be bound involuntarily into the service of another, and then stirred up on his behalf.\u201d These are all accurate depictions of Islam\u2014the religion of submission.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2018Alah<\/em> is sometimes translated \u201cto ridicule and scorn, speaking in disparaging terms\u201d\u2014something Allah does to Yahowah and to mankind. Then, recognizing that the Qur\u2019an\u2019s third-most prevalent theme after \u201cpain and punishment\u201d and \u201cdisparaging ridicule\u201d is \u201cfighting in Allah\u2019s Cause,\u201d <em>\u2018alah<\/em> means \u201cto fight battles, attacking in a military offensive.\u201d I could be wrong, but based upon the linguistic evidence, I believe those who will be \u201canguished and bewildered\u201d will be \u201cshouting out \u2018Allah.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Other <em>\u2018alah<\/em> connotations read like Satan\u2019s biography: \u201cwicked, unrighteous, unjust, and perverse.\u201d Feel free to place any of these immoral words into the mouths of those who are confused and consternated.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, Yahowah\u2019s family will be cared for and protected. <strong>\u201cMoreover<\/strong> (<em>gam<\/em> \u2013 indeed)<strong>, Yahuwdah<\/strong> (those who belong to and are related to Yah) <strong>will eat food <\/strong>(<em>laham<\/em>\/<em>lehem<\/em> \u2013 consume bread) <strong>in<\/strong> (<em>ba<\/em>) <strong>Yaruwshalaim.\u201d <\/strong>(Zakaryahuw \/ Remember Yahowah \/ Zechariah 14:14) A derivative of <em>gam<\/em> is <em>gama\u2019<\/em>, meaning \u201cwill be quick to consume, swift to swallow and eat up.\u201d And since <em>lehem<\/em> is \u201cbread,\u201d The passage could read \u201cYahuwdah will quickly consume bread in Jerusalem.\u201d In this regard, the message is similar to the Exodus, where Yahuwdym were told not to waste time yeasting their bread so as to expedite their flight to freedom.<\/p>\n<p>For those puzzled by how their English Bible translations read, \u201cEven Judah will <em>fight against<\/em> Jerusalem,\u201d <em>laham<\/em> is sometimes rendered \u201cengage in a military battle and attack.\u201d But, in the context of Yahowah\u2019s return on the Day of Reconciliations, and the fate of those who fought against Jerusalem, that is senseless.

As for \u201chorses, camels, mules, and donkeys,\u201d I\u2019ll let you decide. But as you do, recognize that the difference between <em>behemah<\/em>\/beast (\u05d1\u05bc\u05b0\u05d4\u05b5\u05de\u05b8\u05d4) and <em>behalah<\/em>\/terrorist (\u05d1\u05bc\u05b6\u05d4\u05b8\u05dc\u05b8\u05d4) is very small, and a \u201cbeast\u201d in this context is often a person who allies with Satan.<\/p>\n<p>Since those who came to attack Jerusalem are gone, turned into goo, there are only two or three groups of people left on planet Earth. There are racial Yahuwdym who have come to know, trust, and rely upon Yahowah and who are now looking forward to celebrating Tabernacles with Him. And there is a remnant of adopted Yahuwdym represented by the Laodicean assembly. I believe they are the subjects of the next verse. They will be \u201can existing remnant.\u201d They hail from the \u201cGentile nations which will attack Israel,\u201d but will not take part in that battle which is one of two reasons they will be spared.<\/p>\n<p>Third, there may be people who are not saved but who did not come to fight in Israel. While this is unlikely, they could be the people who were said to be \u201cbewildered and dismayed.\u201d If so, it is possible that they are being given the opportunity of a lifetime. But it is also possible, that Yahowah\u2019s intense presence reached around the world and incinerated all who were not enveloped in His Spirit. If that is the case, God is then speaking to the Laodicean Assembly. They will be called home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe whole<\/strong> (<em>kol<\/em>) <strong>existing<\/strong> (<em>hayah<\/em>)<strong> remnant<\/strong> (<em>yatar<\/em> \u2013 those who remain and who were spared) <strong>from<\/strong> (<em>min<\/em> \u2013 out of) <strong>all<\/strong> (<em>kol<\/em>) <strong>the Gentile nations <\/strong>(<em>gowym<\/em> \u2013foreign and unrelated peoples)<strong> who came to attack <\/strong>(<em>bow\u2019 \u2018al<\/em>) <strong>Yaruwshalaim in accord with the multitude<\/strong> (<em>day<\/em> \u2013 to inflict punishment) <strong>of<\/strong> (<em>min<\/em>) <strong>\u2018Allah<\/strong> (<em>\u2018alah<\/em> \u2013 who fought unjustly, perversely, wickedly, and arrogantly) <strong>with<\/strong> (<em>ba<\/em>) <strong>repeated<\/strong> (<em>sanah<\/em>) <strong>and repetitious<\/strong> (<em>sanah<\/em>) <strong>prostrations <\/strong>(<em>sahah<\/em> \u2013 bowing down to and being repressed) <strong>in accord with<\/strong> (<em>la <\/em>\u2013 according to) <strong>their king<\/strong> (<em>malak<\/em> \u2013 their ruler)<strong>, will celebrate<\/strong> (<em>chagag<\/em> \u2013 revel in) <strong>Yahowah\u2019s <\/strong>(efei) <strong>festival feast<\/strong> (<em>chag<\/em>) <strong>of Sukah<\/strong> (<em>sukah<\/em> \u2013 Tabernacles, Tents, and Shelter)<strong>.\u201d <\/strong>(Zakaryah \/ Zechariah 14:16) It should also be noted how well \u2018Allah fits in front of \u201crepeated and repetitious prostrations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So, what I think is being said here is that the \u201cexisting remnant\u201d consisting of adopted Laodiceans who supported Yisra\u2019el even as their nations went off to war in the name of Allah, will arrive in Yaruwshalaim five days after Yahowsha\u2019s return, just in time to celebrate the Festival Feast of Sukah with their reconciled Yahuwdym brethren.<\/p>\n<p>But so that you know, while the Hebrew word <em>day<\/em> can be rendered \u201cin accord with the multitude,\u201d as it is above, and thus tie it into the mark of the beast in Revelation, it also means \u201csufficient\u201d or \u201cenough.\u201d <em>Day<\/em> can convey \u201cto inflict punishment,\u201d or \u201cto do something for naught, in vain, or for no reason.\u201d Similarly, as you now know, <em>\u2018alah<\/em> can be rendered as diversely as \u201cto go up,\u201d \u201cto fight,\u201d or \u201cto be unjust.\u201d Furthermore, <em>sanah,<\/em> meaning \u201cto repeat,\u201d and rendered \u201crepetitious\u201d in this verse, is most often translated \u201cyear\u201d because the seasons repeat on an annual basis.<\/p>\n<p>These things known, many different renderings of this passage are possible\u2014including: \u201cThen everyone who survives of all the nations that have come against Jerusalem shall go up year after year to honor the King, to keep the Feast of Booths.\u201d After all, Yahowah is now \u201cKing\u201d of the earth and Tabernacles will be celebrated annually throughout time.<\/p>\n<p>But regardless of the translation, the Tribulation is over. Yahowah has prevailed. Mercifully, evil has been obliterated. Five days have passed since God\u2019s return on the Day of Reconciliations. The world is now celebrating \u201cYahowah\u2019s Festival Feast of <em>Sukah<\/em>.\u201d Mankind will camp out with God for one-thousand years, reconciled with their Maker.<\/p>\n<p>********<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAn Introduction to God\u201d is found at <\/p>\n<p>And Was Writen by Craig of <\/p>\n<p>All Glory be to Yahweh!<\/p>\n<p>*******<\/p>\n<p>Build a Swimming Pool in Kenya <\/p>\n<p>*******<\/p>\n<p>The Nairobi Business Directory \u2013 <\/p>\n<p>*******<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/watch\/\">Make Money Online<\/a> \u2013 For Real \u2013 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Living waters is one of seven metaphors Yahowah uses to describe Himself and His purpose.
