The Trespass Oath

Torah Parashah - Wayiqra (starting Wayiqra) 1:1- 6:7 p 82

B’re’shiyt Recap to 1:22!!! :)  - Based on Brad Scott’s “B’re’shiyt” study

Torah Parashah 

Reminder:

The Book of the Covenant ended in Sh’mot (Exodus) 24:11 and

the Book of the Law started in the next verse Sh’mot 24:12

So we keep instructions that are mentioned before that point

And some of those have MORE instructions in Book of Law ...

But we do not keep the Levitical priesthood instructions = the Levitical ADMINISTRATION -

Because we have a new priest - THE High Priest - The Melchizedek - Yahusha haMoshiach!  :)

Just Briefly - We keep The Book of the Covenant instructions... and do not get involved in things regarding the ADMINISTRATION of the Levitical instructions of Book of Law.

 But IN the Book of the Law more instruction/information is given that we can glean from... only we are not running around doing sacrifices.

What instructions do we keep?

1.  Sanctification - Holiness Codes. (Nader rules)

          Exodus 19:14 What is holy and what is profane 

          more in Leviticus 15 and 20.

2.    Spoken Statutes and relayed judgments between man and man and

          between man and YHUH.

          Exodus 21- 24:11.... and expanded on in the B of L

3.   Tattoos /Pagan Worship

          Genesis 1:27

          Exodus 20:25

          I Corinthians 6:19

          Expanded on in Leviticus 19:28

          = No tattoos, no cutting of the flesh - about reverence for the

                    “temple”

4.    Defining sin

          -Genesis 9 - Noahide Laws

          -Exodus 19:4

          -Noahide Laws

A.   Idolatry is forbidden - Do not deny YHUH

B.   Incestuous, homosexual and adulterous relations forbidden

C.   Murder is forbidden

D.   Cursing the name of YHUH  (speech must be sanctified)

E.    Don’t steal

F.   Eating the flesh of a living animal is forbidden and no blood. (No animal cruelty)

G.  Establish courts of justice

-   All but the last one comes from B’re’shiyt.

5.    Need a school master to understand blessing and cursing 

          Galatians 3:24-25

6.   No Divorce under Yahusha  Mark 10:5

7.   Keeping Shabbat  - Genesis 2:3, Ex 20:8

8.   Keeping Feasts - Exodus 23 with 3 pilgrimage feasts

9.   Diet - Genesis 1,6,9, and expanded upon in Book of Law

          Genesis 6:21 “all food EATEN is food.”

10.    How then do we live? - Rightly divide Torah under Melchizedek

     Administration.  Genesis 49:10, Hebrews 7:11-12

And while we are defining sin...

Yochanan Aleph (I John) 3:4 p 832

“Anyone who commits sin violates Torah, for sin is the transgression of the Torah.”

So that little reminder as we start the book of Wayiqra (Leviticus)

Okay so remember - that YHUH gave the Book of the Covenant - in the Covenant He made with Avrahm ....  and man broke it. 

But the Book of the Law - was imposed on man....

So that said... let’s go to the Torah Parashah ...

Wayiqra 1: starts with information about offerings.

But what I want to focus on is:

The Trespass Oath ...

Wayiqra (Leviticus) 5:1 p 83

“And if a being sins, and hears the voice of swearing,  and is a witness, whether he has seen, or known of it;  if he does not reveal it, then he shall bear his iniquity.” 

Pesach is coming up and it is important to review this....

Mattityahu 26:63 (Matthew) p 703

{What is going on - Yahusha is on trial before high priest Kaiaphis }

“But Yahusha kept His silence.  And the Kohen HaGadol (High Priest) answered and said to Him, I put You under oath before the Living God, that You tell us whether You are The Moshiach, the Son of the Almighty.”

So what were the (false) “witnesses” against Yahusha saying....that Yahusha was saying He was God and that he wasn’t God.

So here’s the big deal :

Yahusha couldn’t lie - because a lie would be a sin and he would have no longer been “sinless”    AND if He told the Truth and said He was YHUH.... then that would be grounds to kill him. 

When the priest put Yahusha under the Trespass Oath - Yahusha had to tell the truth...

          They knew Who He was... but if he didn’t answer - it was a sin - and he had to be sinless. 

          And if he did answer  - it was a “sin” and he had to be sinless and if He did they had the “grounds” to kill him.   (Wayiqra 5:1).

Okay so that is the Torah Gem for today.  :)

*****

Yesterday I read a very disturbing article on

www.greenmedinfo.com

“Biotech'sDark Promise: Involuntary Cannibalism for All”  by Sayer Ji.

This article talks about the things happening with aborted HUMAN fetal cells.

“... the cloning of human embryos for 'therapeutic purposes' was made legal in the UK in January, 2001 through an amendment to the Human Embryology Act.[i]  Not long after, in August 2004, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) approved the first license for cloning human embryos in the UK.  Media reports at the time alleged the legal changes would result in the use of cloned human embryos to create "spare body parts."   

In an article published in 2000 titled, "Biotech Cannabalism,"[ii] C. Ben Mitchell, PhD reflects on the pro-cloning movement by quoting a proponent's justification: "If you could use tissue from human embryos to save hundreds of lives, there must be a moral imperative to do it." Mitchell disagrees, countering: "[C]reating a human being for the purposes of killing that person for another human being's health, sounds an awfully lot like cannibalism, only worse."  

Probably the most 'taken for granted' example of this is the use of live, aborted fetus cell lines from induced abortions to produce vaccines. Known as diploid cell vaccines (diploid cells have two (di-) sets of chromosomes inherited from human mother and father), they are non-continuous (unlike cancer cells), and therefore must be continually replaced, i.e. new aborted, live fetal tissue must be harvested periodically.  A good portion of the CDC's immunization schedule requires the use of these human fetus-originated vaccines, and these include: rubella, measles, mumps, rabies, polio, smallpox, hepatitis A, chickenpox, and herpes zoster. Additionally, so-called "abortion tainted vaccines" cultivated on transformed fetal cells (293, PER.C6) are in the developmental pipeline, including: "flu, Respiratory Syncytial and parainfluenza viruses, HIV, West Nile virus, Ebola, Marburg and Lassa, hepatitis B and C, foot and mouth disease, Japanese encephalitis, dengue, tuberculosis, anthrax, plague, tetanus and malaria." [iii]

Another way in which the dark specter of cannibalism is resurfacing in our lives is through biotech's intense investment in biopharming technologies. Also known as molecular farming, biopharming involves creating "drug-producing" GMOs by inserting a gene that code for useful pharmaceuticals or biological products (e.g. antibodies, lactoferrin) into host plants, insects or animals that do not naturally express those genes.

Concerns over the unintended, adverse effects of this technology are growing, primarily because once the genes are inserted into laboratory- or field-trialed organisms, their escape into the biosphere is not just possible, but a statistical inevitability.

There is intense work being done today to create biopharmed "edible vaccines," which contain deadly viral or bacterial vectors. Obviously, the biopollution created by inserting these genes into plants traditionally used for human consumption and which could find their way into the human food supply could cause life-threatening health problems.  But edible vaccines are only a subset of biopharmed products in the developmental pipeline. There are a broad range of human proteins being 'pharmed' using genetically modified animals expressing human genes as 'bioreactors.'

Below is a small sample of biopharmed organisms in development that could at some point in the future result in the inadvertent ingestion of human proteins (technically, cannibalism):

•            GMO Bulls expressing human lactoferrin in their tissues, intended for human consumption.[iv]

•            GMO Mice expressing a human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor under control of a goat gene (goat alpha-S1-casein gene).[v]

•            GMO Cattle milk expressing the human breastmilk proteins human α-lactalbumin (TC-LA), lactoferrin (TC-LF) or lysozyme (TC-LZ).[vi]

•            GMO Pigs designed to express human α-galactosidase.[vii]

•            GMO Chickens designed to express human urokinase-type plasminogen activator.[viii]

•            GMO Chickens designed to express human parathormone.[ix]

•            GMO Flies expressing human taste receptor genes.[x]

•            GMO Silkworm cells expressing human glycoproteins.[xi]

•            GMO Tomatoes expressing a human brain protein (humanβ-secretase).[xii]

•            GMO Tobacco expressing human erythropoietin intended to be used to treat tissue injury.[xiii]

•            GMO Tobacco expressing human interferon alpha intended for medical use.[xiv]

•            GMO Yeast expressing human Apolipoprotein A-II intended for study.[xv]

•            GMO Lettuce and chicory expressing human interferon alpha intended for medical use.[xvi]

•            GMO Rapeseed expressing human interferon alpha intended for medical use.[xvii]

•            GMO Rice expressing human serum albumin (blood protein) intended for medical purposes.[xviii]

•            GMO Rice expressing human lactoferrin intended for medical use.[xix]

•            GMO Rice expressing human CYP1A1 enzyme (found in placenta and liver) intended to help remediate pesticides in soil.[xx]

•            GMO Rice expressing human amyloidβ-peptide 'Alzheimer's brain protein' intended as an oral vaccine producing plant.[xxi]          

If you think that sounds like a mess - you are right!

It is!!!!  And we could get all lost in the fear of it if you want to...

BUT-

I read that ... and again just was so grateful to YHUH for allowing us to learn about SEED and MIXED....

and so with that...

I want to Review what we have done in B’re’shiyt....

with Brad Scott’s B’re’shiyt study....

B’re’shiyt 1:1

“B’re’shiyt bara Alohiym ET (Aleph -Tov)  hashamayim v’et ha’aretz. 

In the beginning Alohyim ET created the heaven and the earth.

So out of the Bet - the house, comes all the Word.

Remember these 7 words fit the Menorah.

With one side about YHUH and the other about creation... with the shemesh - the middle being the ET!  :)

And if we were drawing this verse - we would draw the Menorah

AND

We would draw a house, a piece of land and a family.

BARA = is a completed work done by ONE person.

So 1:1 is a completed work.  And since our Alohiym is a God of order... it was FINISHED/completed.

But then we come to

B’re’shiyt 1:2

We learn that it  hay’tah = came into being - tohu (confused chaos)

and vavohu = astonished, amazed, confused, empty , V’CHOSHEK = DARK AND CONFUSED

         

So it came to be SHOCKINGLY/ASTONISHINGLY  CONFUSED DARKNESS.

AND THERE WAS T’HOM = A GREAT NOISE AND THE SPIRIT OF YHUH MOVED ON (VIBRATED ON) THE FACE OF THE WATERS...

1:3

And YHUH said let there be light... vay’hiy’or... and light became.

1:4

And YHUH saw the light (THE ALEPH-TAV) and it was good.

And He VAYYAV’DEL = PUT A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN (=BEYN), SEPARATED, DIVIDED

1:5

AND YAH WAYIQ’RA (called, invited, named)  Yom (day) and lay’lah (night) and EREV = TO MIX, MINGLE, distinguishing morning BOQER.

~~~~~~~

Also this is where we begin to understand what a day is.

He did a bunch of stuff...and the evening and the morning were the first day.

So there is creating going on... and then the EREV (the mixed) comes...and there must be night... and when we get back to the morning... that is a day!

(based on LIGHT - NOT the sun!!!)

~~~~~~~~~

1:6

And Yah said - let there be a firmament (“DOME OF THE SKY” in Mizmor/ Proverbs 19:1 in CJB) stretched forth (POUNDED, BEATEN OR CRUSHED OR TO FLATTEN)  in the midst (TO CENTER, TO MAKE EQUIDISTANT, IN THE MIDDLE) of the waters  and let it divide between waters from waters

1:7

And Yah made the firmament, and divided between the waters which were under (MIT-TACHAT = INSTEAD OF / AN UNDERSTUDY)  the firmament and above (ME’AL = ABOVE, OVER, BEYOND, OH HIGH) the firmament.

1:8  And Alohiym called the firmament Heaven.  And the evening and the morning was the second day.

{Again he was busy creating... and the mixed EREV / evening came and then it was night and then morning and that ended day 2.}

1:9

And YHUH said let the waters be gathered together under heaven, into one place, and let dry land appear... and it was so.

(This is the Mikvah / Baptism / cleansing of the land that got astonishingly confused in B’re’shiyt 1:2!)

1:10

And YHUH called the dry land Earth, and the gathered waters (YAM-MIYM = TO ROAR, SEA, WEST, MASS OF HUMANITY) and saw that it was good.

1:11

And Alohiym said, let the earth grass (= TAD’SHE’ = TO SPROUT TO INCREASE, BRING FORHT, GRASS) and the herb yielding seed(ZERA), and the fruit tree yielding fruit after after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth.  So it was.

1:12

And the earth bore vegetation (= deshe’) herb seeding seed after its kind and the tree producing fruit which is it in it after its kind and saw it was good.

1:13

And the erev (mixed, evening) and the morning (= boqer) the 3rd day. 

1:14

And Alohiym said let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide between the day and between the night, and let them be for signs and for season = (UL’MO’DIM = appointments, betrothal, set feasts)   )=and for days and for years.

1:15

And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth and it was so.

1:16

And Alohiym made 2 great lights to rule the day and the lesser to rule the night; he made the stars also.

1:17

And Alohiym set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.

1:18

And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness God saw it was good.

1:19

(Now hear comes that “day” definition again!)

And the evening (MIXED) AND THE MORNING  were the 4th day.

So there was creation happening... and then it was evening... and then it was night and then it was morning when the next day begins.

1:20

And Alohiym said, let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and the fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

1:21

“And Alohiym created great whales (SEA MONSTERS), and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly , after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind; and God saw that it was good.”

1:22

“And Alohiym blessed the, saying.  Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas and let fowl multiply in the earth.”

Vay’y’varek (and blessed) = “and blessed”

“and multiply”  -ur’vu = multiply, increase, authority, much exceedingly plenteous

“And the evening and the morning day is the fifth (= armed, prepared, ready, fifth, five).”

~~

Page 59 in Study guide talks about the #5.... what stands out to you??

~~

1:24

And Alohiym said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping things, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

“cattle” = B’hemah = subordinate, cattle, beast

1:25

And Alohiym made the beast of the earth after its kind and cattle after their kind, and everything that crept upon the earth after its kind and Yah saw that it as good.

ha’damah = “of the ground” = adam, man, reddish, healthy, earth , ground , land.

The difference between the eretz (earth) and the adamah (also earth)  is that  the adamah refers directly to the land mass and dirt.

Eretz seems to generally speak of the planet and all that comes with it,   ADAMAH  did not come from the seas, trees rocks and other animals.

Explaining Book of Covenant and Book of Law and the New Covenant

Explaining Book of Covenant and Book of Law and the New Covenant

Explaining the Book of Covenant and Book of Law and the New Covenant 

If you are on Torah to the Tribes mailing list you know that Jim Staley wrote a very long - very big mess - and very arrogant and rude article on his blog trying to refute Matthew’s teachings on this topic.

I couldn’t believe the attack mode.

I couldn’t believe the arrogance

And I couldn’t believe that anyone would do that to anyone working to understand faith.

I encourage you to read at least part of it.

I could talk a long time about that article.. but I realize it’s the intent of the enemy to take our focus away from what we are studying.

But I will say - that he could have done it asking some very valid questions...  he did not.

okay so let’s go on.

**

Let’s say first of all - from our perspective...

some good questions:

1.   How come there is not a big marker in the text here?

2.   How come Judaism is NOT telling the world about this?

3.   YHUH says the Truth is not too hard to get - so is this true... because it seems so complicated that I hardly understand it!

What we are talking about today is not new to us - but it is new enough that we are probably not very good at sharing it... and we really need a clear understanding.  

So... diving in....

When I first taught this I gave a handout on the Melchizedek Priesthood... 

*****

(Handout:)

The Melchizedek Priesthood and Book of Covenant and Book of Law

B’re’shiyt 12 - YHWH’s Everlasting Oath

          Made to Avraham and his descendants.  This oath is eternal, unbreakable and not dependent on humans.  Salvation through covenant.

Book of Covenant – Genesis 1:1 – Exodus 24:11…. This is what we keep.

B’re’shiyt 15 Promise Covenant

Made with Avraham and his descendants, at Avraham’s request.  YHWH promised his own death if the Covenant was ever broken.  This Covenant had a death position and was breakable (hence Yahusha’s death as YHUH’s lamb). - The smoking furnace and the  burning lamp that walked between.  Entrance into this Covenant was marked by the “token” of physical circumcision estab. in B’re’shiyt 17.

430 years

Sh’mot 19-24  The Answer / The Sealing of the Covenant of Promise/ Inheritance Marriage Covenant.

Promise enacted.  Ratified by Avraham’s descendants at Mt Sinai.  Isra’el and YHUH enter into a marriage-type agreement.  Yisra’el called to be a nation OF priests under the Meklek -Tzedek.  Book of Covenant is placed inside the Ark of the Covenant.

40 days

Sh’mot 32  Golden Calf Incident – The “wall of separation”

Marriage covenant/ The Answer - is broken

Sh’mot 24:12 starts the Book of the Law

          This was in imposed on law – nobody agreed and there was no blood in the “making” of this book (despite the fact that there is a lot of blood in it!).   The followers are under a curse  (Gal. 3:17-19)

D’varim 31:26 - Book of Law put on the side of the Ark of the Covenant

The Book of the Law = added, imposed, inferior, prescriptive and temporary.

Set the Ark of the Covenant as a witness against them, and it was put on the outside of the Ark of the Covenant.  Yisra’el is now a nation WITH priests.  Levitical Law and Levitical Priesthood established instead of Melchizedek.

Yirmeyahu 31:31 “See the days are coming, says YHUH, that I will make a Brit Chadasha - New Brit with Beit Yisra’el, and with Beit Y’hudah.”

= The promise of a NEW Covenant! (Can’t be a “renewed” covenant – It’s new with Yahusha’s blood making covenant.

He will give us a new heart and write His covenant on our hearts.

The Lamb of YHUH – Yahusha dies - the death position enacted for the breaking of the Covenant.  And then is established as Cohen HaGadol... the Melchizedek is re-established.  Circumcision of the heart.

The Melchizedek Priesthood is operational  - functioning under Yahusha.  This priesthood keeps the Melchizedek Covenant, its issues and appointed times.  It always connects back to Avraham.

A future Melchizedek Appointed Time:  Marriage of the Lamb to His Bride Yisra’el. 

1.  Book of the Covenant and Book of the Law are not synonymous 

2.  Deuteronomy 31:26 p 161  “Take this scroll of the Torah, and put it at the side of the Ark of the Testimony of YUH your Alohiym, that it may be there for a witness against you.”    

3.  Rightly dividing point – Exodus 24:11 p 66

4.  Book of Law added after golden calf breech – Hebrews 7:11-12 p 817 “if therefore perfection were by the Lewitical priesthood – for under it the people received the Torah – what further need was there that another Kohen should arise after the order of Malki-Tzedek, and not be called after the order of Aharon?  12  For the priesthood being chassed there is made of necessity of a change of the Torah. 

5.  Book of Ezekiel isn’t millennial – but 13 date stamped scrolls

6.  Jeremiah 33:17 Lewitical conditional covenant – I Kings 9:5, Jer 22:30

7.  Melchizedek priests – cannot isolate Hebrews 8:4 and ignore previous chapters!

8.  Melchizedek believers are the true 3^rd temple – (He has chosen His Temple Hebrews 9:10).

9.  You can’t add to an already blood-ratified covenant  - Ex 24:8; Galatians 3:15

10. Messiah’s blood enables us to be partakers of the Book of the Covenants – The Covenants of Promise!

11. Hebrews 7:1-22 p 817  Change of Torah  - Hebrews 7:12;18.

(end handout)

2 Timothy 1:10 p 906

“But now has been manifest by the appearing of our Savior Yahusha haMoshiach who has abolished death, and has revealed chayim (life) and immortality through the Besorah (Gospel). 

Matthew said:

“Abolished death” doesn’t mean you and I won’t die. The key to understanding the abolishment clause is its ADMINISTRATION, the ministration of death.

Ephesians 2:14-20 p 884

          15“Having abolished in His flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in the Book of the Law; for to make in Himself the two one renewed man, so making shalom.”

According to Strongs...

“renewed” - kainos  =new, as respects form

           recently made, fresh, recent, unused, unworn

             as respects substance of a new kind, unprecedented, novel, uncommon, unheard of

This is NOT  RE -newed... it is -  NEW!!!!

~~

2 Corinthians 3:7 p 866

             “But if the administration of death, written and engraved in stones, was full of so much tifereth (glory) that the b’nai Yisra’el (people of Yisra’el) could not behold the face of Moshe for the tifereth (glory) of his countenance; which tifereth was not lasting.”

Katargeo = “not lasting” = “abolished”

             to render idle, unemployed, inactivate, inoperative

             to cause a person or thing to have no further efficiency

             to deprive of force, influence, power

             to cause to cease, put an end to, do away with, annul, abolish

             to cease, to pass away, be done away

             to be severed from, separated from, discharged from, loosed from                 any one

             to terminate all intercourse with one

What does ABOLISH mean ?

Remember we always let the Torah (whole book) define itself - using the law of first mention...

Ezra 6:8 p 6:11

“Moreover I make a decree what you shall do for the zechanim (elders) of Yahudim for the building of this Bayit (house) of Alohiym (YHUH/God):  that from the melech’s (king’s) good even from the tribute (“expenses”) beyond the river, that immediately all expenses be paid to thee men, that they be not “hindered” (ABOLISHED = Hebrew word bet -tov -lamed = BATEL).

Matthew said...

Darius makes a decree not to hinder/abolish the work of the men who are rebuilding the temple.

So the context of abolish is surrounding, not hindering the new building up of a temple that was previously destroyed.

The context of the “abolished” clause in the NT is the book of the law is NOT to hinder the building of the One New Man into the Commonwealth of Israel, as a Holy nation and a Kingdom of Priests.

The book of the law is no longer a hinderance to the building up of the new temple man that was previously destroyed.

Ezra 4:21 p 610

“Now make a decree to these men to cease (abolish - “batel”), so that this city not be rebuilt, until a commandment from me shall be given to do so.”

The context is the building up of a new temple and commandments being given and commandments ceasing.

Ezra 5:5 p 611

“But the eye of their Alohiym (God) was upon the zechanim (elders) of the Yahudim, so that they could not force them to cease, until the matter came to Daryawesh: and then they returned an answer by letter concerning this matter.”

The context is one cannot cause the building up of the new temple to cease because it’s by the hand of Yah.

Galatians 3:10-29 p 876

Galatians 3:12-13 p 876

“And the law is not made by emunah (faith): but, the man that does what is written in it shall live in them.

13  Moshiach (Messiah) has redeemed us from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is everyone that hangs on an eytz (tree).”

  Galatians 3:25 p 877

“But after the Netsarim emunah (faith)  has come we are no longer under schoolmasters (Book of Law).”

Strongs G3907

a tutor i.e. a guardian and guide of boys. Among the Greeks and the Romans the name was applied to trustworthy slaves who were charged with the duty of supervising the life and morals of boys belonging to the better class. The boys were not allowed so much as to step out of the house without them before arriving at the age of manhood.

Exodus 19:8  p 63

“And all the people answered together, and said, All that YHUH has spoken we will do.  And Moshe returned to words of the people to YHUH.”

This shows us the Book of the Covenant is of faith, “All that יהוה hath spoken we will do.” That’s of faith.

It was an agreed on Covenant.

Whereas the Book of the Law was not of faith it was: imposed on them until the time of reformation.

Hebrews 9:1-14 p 819

10 “Which stood only in food offerings and drink offerings, and different washings, and flesh-related regulations, IMPOSED on the Kohanim (priests) UNTIL the time of REFORMATION AND RESTORATION.”

What abolished DOES NOT mean:

Heb. mâchâh מחה, Gk: apollumi, destroyed.

Hebrews 9:16-17  p 819

“For whee a will is presented it shows the death of its maker.

17 for a will is in force only after men are dead.”

Matthew said:

A Will, a death is required in order to secure what יהוה promised to do.

If I made a Will in 2015 and then made a new Will in 2018 the Will is ‘new’ not ‘renewed’.

You can only have one Will in administration at a time.

You can’t have two different laws and blood covenants running simultaneously, anymore than you can have two Presidency’s under one Administration.

~~

Hebrews 10:1-18 p 820

          9 “Then He said, Behold, I come to do Your will O YHUH.  He takes away the first sacrificial system,that He may establish the second.” (The Melchi-Zedek)

How can we read these Scriptures and not see the changes??!!

~~

Darius made command, a decree concerning the administration of the building of a new temple.

OBSOLETE: Isn’t obsolete the same as destroyed? No, it’s akin to abolished in regard to administration again:

Romans 6:6  p 842

“Knowing this, that our old man has been impaled with Him, tha tht e body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin.”

“destroyed”  / done away with = katargeo in Greek, and betel in Hebrew -

Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be ‘done away with’ /katargeo/beṭêl-בּטל,, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

The body still lives, yet it’s done away with;  how can that be so?

Once we become saved, our whole being (including our bodies) comes under a new administration.

The body of sin is done away with, yet a new ‘man’ stands in it’s place.

Once the New Covenant came into being (including our bodies being the temple) the law comes into a new administration.

The old body of the book of the law is done away with, yet a new body of law stands in it’s place.

We’re not lawless any more than we’re a disembodied spirit!

The consequences of sin are abolished, the body that housed it; returning us to the former estate.’

1 Corinthians 13:10  p 853

“According to the unmerited favor of YHUH:  which is given to me, as a wise maser builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it.”

          (“But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.”)

2 Corinthians 3:13 -14 p 866

          “and not as Moshe, who put a veil over his face that b’nai Yisra’el should not look on the tifereth (glory) that was not lasting.

14  “But thier minds were blinded: for until this day there remains the same veil not taken away in the reading of the Tanach;  which veil is removed by Moshiach.” 

          = a new administration!

Hebrews 8:13  p819

“In that He says, a NEW priesthood,  He has made the first old.  Now that which decays and becomes old is near disappearing.”

become obsolete/palaioō/ bâlâh-בּלה (Bet-Lamed-Heh)and is growing old is ready to vanish away.

The first priesthood under the book of the law is going to vanish (2000 years later it’s still not here) because a new administration of priesthood has been set in place. 

Context;  something that has waxen old in the case of a garment. Garments in the biblical culture would be used again to make something new, they would not be destroyed unless they came into contact with leprosy.

Matthew 9:16 No one puts a piece of new cloth onto an old garment; for that which is put in to fill it up takes from the garment, and the tear is made worse.

Matthew said:

New garments would have old cloth brought forward into them, not vice versa unless they tear.

The New Covenant, which is the Book of the Covenant given as torah based upon better promises (Hebrews 8:6) does incorporate all scripture that is woven into it, given by inspiration of Elohim, for its profitability, doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction in righteousness.

But that does not mean you’re wearing the old garment under it’s old administration with all the laws that applied to the previous administration.

For example:

The cloth from a woman’s dress could be legally used to make a mans garment and the administration of the law pertaining to cross-dressing would not be administered because a completely new garment for a man has been made!

Deuteronomy 22:5  p The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto יהוה thy elohim.

We must understand the new administration of the law does not mean a destroying of all threads of doctrine and instruction that have gone before.

Psalms 6:7 “Obsolete” is connected to our eyes, it means it’s time for new vision!

Leviticus 13:11 a leper would be made “obsolete” and “shut up” indoors until his time was up and then he would come forward under a new administration by command of the priest.

It didn’t mean the leper would be destroyed, he was not rendered null and void, done away with!

He just had to live under a new administration of law which the priest determined, that didn’t mean that everything in his previous life he had to forget and not apply.

James 2:10  p 811

 For whosoever shall keep the entire Torah, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

Deuteronomy 27:26 p and Galatians 3:10 say that “cursed is everyone who does not continue to do EVERYTHING written in the Book of the Law?”

If you try to adhere to a Levitical administration then you’re required to follow everything written in the Book of the Law,

everything means everything, 

you can't call the grace card in your Torah observance for exemptions from observing/performing the parts of the Law that you find inconvenient or impractical today,

 but then not exempt yourself from observing/performing the more palatable parts of the Law.

Galatians 2:21 “ … for if righteousness comes by the law  (Book of the Law 3:10, Hebrews 7:11), then Moshiach died in vain.”

If a right administration comes by the book of the law under the Levitical priesthood then Yahusha died in vain.

And you have to do everything in the Book of the Law - animal blood sacrifice.... and how much sense does it make if we believe Yahusha’s death was the last sin sacrifice??!!

Choosing the Malki-Tzedik administration doesn’t equate to doing away with commands of יהוה it equates to rightly dividing the word of truth and the principle of Chabar:

The principle of châbar/חבר- (Heh-Bet-Resh) coupling-dove tailing – #2266 to join, to couple (together), have fellowship with.

2 Timothy 3:16 p 907

“All the Keetvay HaKodosh (all the Word) are given by the inspiration of YHUH, and are profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction as Torah in tzedakah:”

We have fellowship with the inspiration of Elohim, words profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness which are found in all scripture including the Book of the law;

yet we do not have fellowship with another priesthood and other sacrifices other than Yahusha’s.

If you are under the Book of the Law - then you’d be expected to kill animals.

Genesis 1:1 – Exodus 24:11 is the Book of the Covenant.

How foundational covenant commands are given more information and application in the Book of the Law

 and very much falls under a Malki-Tzedkik administration.

Most of these precepts are binding on us, for they are expositions of most of the commandments found in the Book of the Covenant.

10 principle applications of châbar/חבר- (Heh-Bet-Resh) coupling-dove tailing:

1          Sanctification/Holiness code:  Micvah and family purity: Exodus 19:14. More information is on the laws of Sanctification; Micvah and family purity are found in Leviticus 15, what is holy and profane.  and should be followed except for the Aaronic administration is non binding. Sanctification, what is holy and profane also incorporates sexuality:

                    BoC Genesis 2:24 dove tails with Leviticus 20.

2          Spoken statues and the relayed judgments pertaining to man and Elohim: Exodus 21-24:11 (restitution) expounded upon in greater detail throughout the BoL. Priestly administration and sacrifice is non binding but the interpersonal and divine commands remain.

3          Tattoos : Genesis 1:27 YHWH’s image, Exodus 20:25 no tool shall come upon the altar of un hewn stones – BOOK of Covenant.

                     1 Corinthians 6:19 know ye not that your body is the temple        of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are    not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God      in your body.

                    Expanded on in the BoL, Leviticus 19:28, two prohibitions           of an unnatural disfigurement of the body: ‘Ye shall not make any cutting in your flesh for the dead, nor any print any marks upon you.’

The latter (Heb. qa aqa, incision) refers to tattooing, and has no reference to idolatrous usages, but was intended to ingrain upon the Israelites a proper reverence for YHWH’s creation.”

    Tattoos were forbidden without any reference to pagan, heathen, or idolatrous usages.

In other words, the tattoo itself, regardless the reason, is still forbidden due to the violation of Genesis 1:27 confirmed by 1 Corinthians 6:19.

4          Defining Sin: Genesis 9,  Exodus 19-4. So called “Noahide laws” and Book of Covenant expanded into Leviticus and Deuteronomy Abortion-murder falls under BoC administration.

5          The need for a school master to understand the blessings and the cursing. Galatians 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Messiah, that we might be justified by faith.

         

I hope you can see the validity of using the Book of the Law appropriately within its right administration.

Divided correctly it brings us to Messiah…destroyed we’re left with no conviction,

undivided without a change in administration we become cursed living as if Messiah died in vain (Galatians 3:10, 2:21).

(End of Matthew’s first teaching )

The principle of châbar/חבר- dove tailing-#2266 to join, to couple (together), have fellowship with.

10 principle applications of châbar/חבר (continued...)

6.     Divorce: Mark 10:5 from the beginning (the Book of the Covenant) this wasn’t so,

It was given post Golden Calf breach; because of the hardness of your heart. Then Yahusha points us back to the Book of the Covenant perfection: therefore Elohim hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Short answer: No.

Long answer, if you choose to live outside the covenant with יהוה and live under the Book of the Law with its blessings and cursing's opting to be out of covenant with your spouse, giving yourself over to a hard heart - then Yes!

 In your hardness of heart you may think divorcing your spouse is a blessing, but you’ll find yourself cursed, Just ask your children.

7. The Sabbath: Genesis 2:3 Exodus 20:8 expanded on throughout the BoL

8. The Feasts: Exodus 23 the three Ascension Feasts - expanded at Leviticus 23

9. Diet: Genesis 1,6 & 9 - expanded at Leviticus 11.

Genesis 1:29 Yahweh told Adam and Eve at the beginning of creation, "Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat [food]."

Later, in the Book of the Covenant (BoC) part of Torah YHWH stipulates that the green plant is given for food (Genesis 9:3). Yahweh limited edible plants to those that are green and propagate by seeds.

Genesis 9:3 "Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything."

"Everything" is defined by the change from a plant-only diet to a new diet consisting of plants *and* animals -- that is, "everything." But that doesn't mean one could eat *every* animal anymore than one could eat *every* plant.

"....I have given every green herb for food, and it was so." Genesis 1:30

  

“Every green herb" above doesn't mean "every-single existing green herb." It means "every green herb that is appropriate for food.”

Genesis 6:21: "And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.'"

Noah is commanded to take all the edible foods into the ark. So then, not 'every green herb' was edible, only 'every green herb given for food' was edible.

The so called ‘Seven Noahide laws’ from Gen. are expanded in Exodus 19-24 and later expanded again and put under a Levitical administration including administrative sacrifices (non binding sacrifices).

1.        Do not worship idols or other gods.

2.        Do not blaspheme YHWH’s name.

3.        Do not murder.

4.        Do not commit sexual immorality.

5.        Do not steal.

6.        Do not eat things while they are still alive (i.e., meat with blood).

7.        Establish courts of justice (Exodus 21-24).

The apostles taught the additional Book of Covenant laws, believers in Yeshua should also keep the commandments of proper worship (the Feast of YHWH) going to the synagogue on Shabbat to listen to Moshe Rabainu (Shabbat keeping) prohibiting the ingesting blood, improperly slaughtered meat, things contaminated by contact with idolatry, and by adopting the Book of the Law’s definitions of sexual immorality and micvah (See Acts 15).

 “Now how do we live?” We learn to rightly divide the Torah under the Malki- tzedik ADMINISTRATION and apply the change of the law to in our lives.

2 Timothy 2:15

Study to shew thyself approved unto Elohim a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth/torah.

Hebrews 7:12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the torah.

  

Hot button commands from the Book of the Law:

Beards:

Shaving of Beards is a command associated with the mourning of the pagans, accompanied by cutting the body, cutting the hair and cutting the beard. So we should’t not cut ourselves nor rip or ruin our hair out of our beard and our head with violence, that’s sun-god worship.

Tzitzit: Numbers 5:37 to remember all the commandments and seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye used to go a whoring.

Tzitzit were given post Golden Calf because the children of Israel needed a visible outward sign because they’d broken the covenant, some wouldn’t even keep Sabbath because the commands were not written on their heart.

In the post resurrection and New Covenant reality what is more effective; the administration of threads or the administration of commands on the heart?

Which one will produce the desired outcome of keeping the commandments of .more effectively is the point יהוה

Hebrews 8:10

 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts.

End Notes:

No covenants under the Levitical Priesthood are ratified by blood.

A 'covenant' is an agreement by 2 or more. – It requires, at a minimum of a

Proposal and an Acceptance.

You cannot impose an agreement.

 We didn’t exchange one taskmaster for another.

While you can impose law you cannot impose an agreement on which a covenant is based.

YHUH didn’t engage with the people with whom he was making this temporal law enactment directly.

YHUH set up a perimeter between him and the people in which only Levites could function.

Showing us the already in function Levitical Priesthood Numbers 3:12 at Exodus 34

 demonstrating that this bloodless ‘law action’ to be under the Levitical Priesthood Hebrews 7:11 and NOT a Melchizedek Priesthood 'covenant of promise' Ephesians 2:12.

   

It’s paramount we understand the distinction between the initial blood covenant with the first set of tablets and the second set of tablets that was NOT a blood covenant.

The distinction of blood and no blood

between them identifies that they cannot be one and the same.

Galatians identifies what law was added at Exodus 24:12 after the ratified Book of Covenant

Galatians doesn’t mention ‘the five books of Moses’ as the traditional anti nomina church would have you believe

 nor does it mention the ‘Oral law’ as messianic’s would have you believe

NOR does it mention a separate ‘Law of Moses’.

 It identifies by name the BoL in

Galatians 3:10.

3:17 of Galatians informs us that the law (now identified by 3:10) came 430 years later and was after the covenant (BoC) .

This identifies that the law that was added in Exodus 24:12 after the blood ratified covenant was confirmed was.......V.10 the Book of the Law!

The law added in Exodus 24:12 can only be the Book of the Law according to Rav Shaul’s communication to the Galatians and confirmed by Hebrews 7:11.

2 Corinthians 3:13 “ not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not steadfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: :14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament.”

(A) The Jewish “vail” of confusion in reading the Old Testament is that Most Jews understand that the ‘Law of Moses’ preserved the lives of Israel for violation of the covenant.

Most Jews do NOT fully recognize that the ‘Law of Moses’ which is the BoL was

to remain IN ADMINISTRATION only UNTIL the death penalty position could be paid (the Genesis 49:10 ‘Until Shiloh comes’ clause) allowing all Israel access back to the covenants of promise; of which the Book of the law of Moses is NOT.

Most Jews do NOT understand that the blood covenant of Exodus 19 has been made NEW by Yahusha.

That’s why they fear setting aside any of the instructions in the law as they knew their lives were preserved by the Law of Moses or BoL.

(B) The Christian “vail” of confusion in reading the Old Testament is that most Christians know that the ‘Law of Moses’ was abolished when Yeshua established a new blood covenant.

        

Most Christians do NOT fully understand that the ‘Law of Moses’ was a distinct law enactment and not the whole of the Old Testament ‘law’.

Most Christians do NOT realize that the blood covenant that was made new by Yeshua has Torah/teachings and instructions attached to it.

Most Christians set aside TOO MUCH of the Instructions of covenant because of a misunderstanding of the law and grace.

The veil is there for BOTH Christian and Jew UNTIL, their hearts are turned to covenants of promise and follow the ‘teaching and instructions/torah of the יהוה covenants of promise.

Ephesians 2:14 Yeshua is our peace, He who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is the (Book of the) Law of commandments contained in ordinances (not covenant), so as to create in Himself ONE NEW MAN from the two thus making SHALOM.
