37 B’re’shiyt teaching from Bradley Scott’s B’re’shiyt teaching...

page 37 in study guide

B’re’shiyt 1:11
“vay-yo’mer Elohiym tad’she‘   ha’arets deshe’ ‘esav maz’riy’a zera’  ‘etz p’riy ‘oseh p’riy l’miyno  ‘asher zar’  o-vo  ‘al-ha’aretz vay’hiy ken.”

RSTNE = “And Elohiym said, Let the earth bring out grass, the herb yielding zera and the fruit eytz yielding fruit after its kind, whose zera is in itself, upon the earth; and it was so.”

Words of B’re’shiyt 1:11

VAY-YO’MER = and said

ELOHIYM = God/ YHWH

New word:

TAD’SHE’ or TADESHE - (toddashay) = Let bring forth,
based on Hebrew root = dasha’ = to sprout, to increase, bring forth, grass

HA’ARETS = the earth

DESHE’ = same word/ repeat of “TADESHE” - says it twice

ESEV = literally translated as herb or grass.
It is not translated as any other meaning in Scriptures.
Again - this is repetition of the earth springing forth vegetation....
so really YHWH is saying it a 3rd time!

MAZ’RIY’A ZERA = Yielding seed (ZERA = seed)

Zera = SEED, seeding, to sow

‘ETZ = tree, wood, staff
    = first mention of “tree”

P’RIY = fruit
          pey- resh - hey

          root = parah = to be fruitful, to produce, and
 literally it means =to be free

‘OSEH = cognate of ‘asah (of verse 7) which means to do or to make, to prepare, to fulfill....


L’MIYNO (“le me no”)  = is translated  “after it’s kind” and some translations translate it - “after HIS kind”

          comes from word MIN (“mean”)  = from something or out of something, also means ‘according to’


as a matter of fact - the word
nor (‘newor”) - in Bible is translated as light or heat or candle flame

but is actually the verbal form where you have an action

if you take that “nor” and put a mem prefix on it you change it  into a noun and it becomes =  a menorah.

with miyno here = YHWH is talking about kind producing like kind..

          -cattle producing cattle, felines producing all kids of felines, canine will produce all kinds of canines...

....and can’t reproduce outside of their kinds.

when you really break it down - there wasn’t that many animals on the ark b/c YHWH put within the seed of that cattle kind, the ability to reproduce all kinds of species from the one kind..

The same is true with Ahdahm... contained within the seed of Ahdahm.. is the ability to reproduce,, black white, asian,, Indian...
          - people are divided by speech in the world - not by race

-     In order to get a picture of that -
          ... if you can imagine taking all kinds of colored paint.. red, blue, black, white, green. oranges, and mix all up in a can... you’d probably get a darker brown color...

... if you could extrapolate back out of the can - all the colors you’d see.. mixed together...
          -pretend this is in the seed...
highly doubtful Adaham was a white man... 

l’miyno = out of that seed comes various kinds...
and - what comes out , can not be different from what it came out from... 

...it has to be in the seed.

whatever is in the seed is what will come out.

that is the whole idea of reproducing after itself.

feline = all kinds of felines, lion, tigers, mt lions etc...

whatever is in seed of man, then he is capable of reproducing.. but man can not reproduce what is not in him.

that is why Y’shua said what YHWH said...
“The words i speak are not my own.”

... He came out of Father and is a reproduction of Father...

so --  He is not going to teach something different from the Father....

(Janet - but he is ONE  -/part of YHWH) 

Brad says - “This is why i cling  to the FACT that Y’shua came to interpret the Tanakh - not to change it or do away with it and make clear the understanding.. b/c he is the one that wrote it.”

Yochanan 1:1-3
 - “In the b’re’shiyt was the Living Torah and the Living Torah was YHWH and the Living Torah was with YHWH.  He was with YHWH in the b’re’shiyt.  All things came to be through him, and without him nothing made had being.”

Hebrew people expected a Messiah that would speak the Words of the Father
YeshaYahu 8:20  p 300
          “To the Torah and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this Word, it is because there is no Light in them.”

-     Must have Spirit of YHWH in you in order to reproduce anything spiritual.

Page 40 in study guide:

I Corinthians 2:9-14 -. p 852... (books says 2 corinthians)

-     The spirit searches all things.. for what man knows the things of man except the spirit of man which is in him.

-     Whatever is in man he is capable of reproducing.

The spirit of man - know things of man
The spirit of YHWH is given so man would know the things of YHWH.

What separates the animals from man - is that animals do not invent great things.... 

The spirit of man not in the animals... 

We can do great things and still not have Spirit of YHWH in us...

- If only believers can invent.. lots of things would not have been invited.

Having that, seed of the knowledge of good and evil - means that he can do good things and he can do evil things.. but he does not do things of the Spirit of YHWH ( does not function from the etz chayim.

  - We have to have the Spirit of YHWH to do the things of YHWH.

*
Whatever a man receives  - that he can reproduce.


= Reproducing fruit after itself



Galatians 5:16-22  p 881
- we have the fruit of the Spirit

we can talk alot about the evidence of being born again...
lots of Scritpure that shows that evidence...
....  psalm 119 is full of those... 

but Galatians 5 is blatant in your face - Fruit of the Spirit

= the 9 fold fruit of the spirit all part of spirit of Yah in you...

page 40 in study guide....
these words are directly connected to the laws and commandments of YHWH...

One of the most important one is faith = evdence that the seed of the Woman is in you.

TORAH

Torah parashah Ki Tisa (When you take)
Sh’mot (Exodus) 30:11 - 34:35 p 72 RSTNE

We have been talking about the Melchizedek Priesthood and how Y’shua came to renew the Melchizedek Priesthood.

We know that In B’re’shiyt (Genesis 12) YHWH made the everlasting oath...
          B’re’shiyt 12:2-3 p 16
          “And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a bracha: 3 And i will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you: and in you shall all mishpachot of the earth be blessed - mixed.”

And we know that Avraham asked YHWH to show him / prove it to him...

B’re’shiyt 15:2 p 18
          “And Avram said, Master YHWH, what willYou give me, seeing I go childless...”

and YHWH tells him...  B’re’shiyt 15:5
          “Look now toward the shamayim, and count the cochavim (stars), if you are able to number them.... so shall your zera be.”

and then Avraham says in B’re’shiyt 15:8 “Master YHWH , how shall i know that i shall inherit it?”

And then starting in B’re’shiyt 15:9 - 21 the Promise Covenant is made with the “Smoking Furnace”  and “Burning Lamp” walked between the animal pieces while Avraham was in a trance.....

**
{Note:  “Smoking Furnace” = is used in Sh’mot 19:18 - “smoke of a furnace”  AND lamp or light = Y’shua throughout Word.}
**

We know that the covenant is sealed and ratified in
Sh’mot 24:7-8 with the statement “All that YHWH has said will we do, and be obedient” and then the blood is sprinkled on the people.

So here we are.... In Torah Parashah Ki Tasa ...

2 shabbats ago -Moshe is up the mountain again... and given the directions for the building of the Tabernacle were given.

Last shabbat - Moshe is still up on the mountain and given the directions for the priestly garments were given and instructions for the Priests.... 


Today....  The parashah is huge... 

The main thing that stands out is ...

          THE GOLDEN CALF

We know that the problem here is that the people build this golden calf and use it to worship YHWH. 

The Covenant of Promise is broken. 
and the result of that is:
Yisra’el moves from a kingdom of Priests ...to a kingdom with priests.

(*We know that Y’shua , as i said, renews the Melchizedek priest hood...*)

So many things we could talk about today... 

But i want to talk about

Feelings, Emotions or character traits listed in this parashah.

1.      Equality...  
There is a census called ... and everyone 20 and older is to bring an offering...
Sh’mot 30:15 p 72
“The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when you give an offering to YHWH.”

2.             Kadosh  / Holy
Then in Sh’mot 30:23-38... talks about an anointing oil that makes the things and the people kadosh / holy/ set apart... 
AND only the priests can use the oil....

***
So the people are equal... and the priests are set apart - Kadosh/ Holy.

***

3.  “... Filled with the Ruach of Elohim (HOLY SPIRIT), in chochmah (wisdom) , and in binah (understanding), and in Da’at (knowledge) and in all manner of workmanship.”

B’re’shiyt 31:3

Interestingly ... 
**


Sh’mot 34:6-7  p 75 --  tells us who YHWH is....

rachamim (mercy)
favor (grace)
long suffering - long, patient, slow to anger
chesed (grace)
emet (truth)
forgiving iniquity


****
YHWH is - rachamim (mercy), favor (grace), long suffering, chesed (grace), emet (truth), forgiving iniquity.
Funny, how that sounds like the Fruit of the Spirit we talked about earlier. :)

Notice the complete contrast to ANGER.

Anger can be righteous anger... If i feel anger because i see an injustice...  something that doesn’t line up with the word - or NOT.

What is important is what i DO with Anger.

2 ways to respond with ANGER:

-Positive - doesn’t hurt anyone - including myself,  and brings change /healing
-Negative - this anger hurts people, including myself.

The reality is  - the way most of us handle anger it is NOT positive.

Why was YHWH angry in this parashah?
-  righteous anger...

When i think about anger - i have to go back to....

Romans 12:19 p 848
   “Dearly beloved, revenge not yourselves, but rather give place to wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; and repayment , says YHWH.”

and stop pursuing justice when there has been injustice... and just know that YHWH will take care of things.

**********

Also we have to mention

SHABBAT
Sh’mot 31:13-17 p 73 -


Shomer Shabbat = to guard, keep, protect  Shabbat

Why do we keep Shabbat ?

   Besides that YHWH says we should...

Sh’mot 31:13
   “... that you may know that I am YHWH that does set you apart.”

Think about that...

There is really a lot to think about in this parashah Ki Tisa - not just the different things going on... but the moods and responses... the FRUIT.

If i am set apart....  i need to respond and live and be in the Fruit of the Ruach HaKodesh... not from my own flesh in negative anger.

I need to not live in and be corrupted....Corrupted is NOT an option.

If i am set apart i am called to be Kadosh / Holy.

Do we KNOW that we are called to be SET APART / KADOSH?

Because if we know it - we live like it.

AMEIN.
