GENTILES RESPOND
THE FIRST MISSIONARY JOURNEY: PISIDIAN ANTIOCH
From Acts 13:13-52
Leaving Paphos by ship, Paul and his companions sailed toward Pamphylia, northwest of Cyprus. After a journey of about two hundred miles by sea, they arrived at the seaport of Attalia, then made their way overland to Perga. But when they arrived, John Mark decided to quit and return to Jerusalem. Paul and Barnabas continued north across the Taurus Mountain range to Pisidian Antioch, about one hundred miles from Perga. On the Shabbat they attended the local synagogue. After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the synagogue leaders sent a message to them. [Brothers, speak up if you have some word of instruction for us,] they said. Paul stood up and motioned for the people to be quiet. Then he gave this speech: [Men of Israel, and all others who worship YHVH, listen to what I say. First, let me remind you of our heritage. Even when our ancestors were slaves in Egypt, YHVH chose to make them a great nation. With a powerful arm He led them from Egypt and endured their conduct in the wilderness for forty years. He destroyed seven nations in their path as they entered Canaan, and divided the land among their tribes, which took about four hundred and fifty years. He gave our people judges to rule them until the prophet Samuel came, and then when they asked for a king, he gave them Saul, who ruled for forty years. When YHVH removed him from the throne, He gave the people King David, a man whom YHVH said was ‘after His own heart, a man who desired to do His will.’ Now, from David’s descendants, YHVH has given us a Saviour, whose Name is Yeshua. John the Baptist proclaimed His coming and urged our people to repent and turn from their sin to YHVH. John made it clear that he was not the Moshiach, but that Someone was coming Who was far greater than he. Now brother Israelites, and you Gentiles who are worshiping here, YHVH offers this salvation to all of us. Our people in Jerusalem did not recognize Yeshua as the Moshiach, so they killed Him, just as the prophets had said they would. They had heard the Prophets read every Shabbat, but did not recognize that they spoke about Yeshua. When they found no good reason to kill Him, they pressured Pilate into killing Him anyway, fulfilling many prophecies in the Scriptures. After Yeshua was crucified on a cross, they laid Him in a tomb. But YHVH raised Him to life again and He appeared alive to His followers from Galilee. They have publicly testified that they have seen Him alive. Barnabas and I are here to tell you that the promised Moshiach has come. YHVH raised Yeshua to life again! This is what the second Psalm meant where YHVH said, ‘You are My Son for today I have become Your Father.’ In another Psalm, YHVH told how He would raise up Yeshua from death, never to let Him die again. There He said that He would not permit His holy One to see corruption.’ David, after he served YHVH during his own generation, died and was buried, and his body decayed. But the body of Yeshua never decayed. Listen to me, brothers. This Yeshua alone has the power to forgive your sins. Whoever trusts Him completely will be freed from sin and guilt. The law could never do that! Be careful that you do not let the prophets’ words foretell your actions. They said, ‘Some of you will perish, for you will not believe in a wonderful work I will do, even when you hear about it.’] As Paul and Barnabas left the synagogue, the people begged them to come back with another message the next Shabbat. Many people followed them into the streets, where Paul and Barnabas urged them to accept the mercy YHVH offered. The whole city came to the synagogue the next Shabbat to hear YHVH’s Word. But the synagogue leaders became jealous and began to argue with Paul and Barnabas, saying abusive things to them. The two missionaries kept on preaching fearlessly, refusing to let the leaders intimidate them. We have tried to bring the Good News to you people first,] Paul told them. [But since you refuse it, you are not worthy of YHVH’s gift. We will offer it to the Gentiles. This is what Adonai was saying when He spoke of ‘appointing us to be a light to the Gentiles, to bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’] The Gentiles were glad to hear this, and many accepted Adonai’s message and eternal life which He offered. Soon the Word of YHVH spread throughout that region. But the Jewish leaders stirred up some of the leading people of the city against Paul and Barnabas. Before long, the two missionaries were forced out of town. Paul and Barnabas shook the dust from their feet, a symbolic act which said, “I am no longer a part of you.] Then they went on their way to Iconium. The people of Antioch who had accepted Yeshua remained behind, filled with joy and Ruach HaKodesh.
COMMENTARY
THE SHABBAT
In six days YHVH created the heavens and the earth, but on the seventh day He rested. In honour of His pause after the task of creation, Adonai set aside the Shabbat as a day of rest. At Mount Sinai He Commanded the Israelites to follow His example by stopping all work every seventh day. YHVH made the Shabbat as a blessing for men, not a burden. It was meant to protect the people from cruel taskmasters who demanded work without rest. Even the animals were included in the Commandment to rest on the Shabbat. But in the hands of the scribes, the Law became a tyrant instead of a protector. The Jewish lawyers invented long lists of harsh rules. They declared it a sin to build a fire or tie a knot on the Shabbat. Women could not braid their hair, and men were forbidden to carry a wallet. The scribes said that all of these things were {work.} The scribes and Pharisees attacked Yeshua because He did not keep their rules. They accused Him of breaking the Law when He healed the sick on the Shabbat. But Yeshua declared life more important than the Law. [The Shabbat was made for man, and not man for the Shabbat,] He answered. The first believers were Hebrews by birth. Even after Yeshua’ resurrection, they continued to keep the Shabbat and worship in the temple. But when the Gentiles accepted the Gospel, the church faced a new problem. Were believers required to keep the Jewish Laws? The apostle Paul said no. He argued that all believers were free from the Law. Both Jews and Gentiles enjoyed new liberty through Yeshua Moshiach. The leaders of the early church held a Council in Jerusalem to settle the argument About the Jewish Law and customs. They decided that Gentiles were not required to keep the Jewish religious Laws, or to become Jews first, in order to be believers. But Gentile and Hebrew believers were expected to abstain from certain things, but not because those things would dishonour Adonai. Likewise, the Shabbat or Adonai’s Day, a part of the moral Law, became a time to honour Adonai more than a time of rules the Jewish leaders had established.
Here's a message putting the Messianic, Hebrew Roots, and general faith of all of us commandment keepers into the proper context.

I never said there are two Elohims. There is only One. Research the title 'Elohim'. It is plural for Mighty Ones as in more then one, but two. Elohim is both Yahuah and Yahshua. They are One and we are not to question that authority. It is a futile argument as Scripture would put it.
Camps are built. The people are sleep walking. The bomb has been lit. The sounding alarms falls on deaf ears. Today is the Sabbath day of rest and it is a beautiful day. Praise Yahuah for life and death for life is becoming short and to death will the blood fill to the bridle of a horse. Prepare to be slaughtered by the lovers of sin! HalleluYah!

Names that use Jehovah/Yehovah in scripture
Preserved by the Mesorites in literally 1000s of manuscripts..
Yeho looks like this in Hebrew . יְהֹ Yehovah looks like this. יְהֹוָה
Galatians 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
KJV preserves the gospel in the name. Exodus 6:3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.
There are ZERO manuscripts with the name yahweh, and yahweh has no meaning other than what the academic world says is adonai, which just means the title “God”. There is no gospel in the name adonai or yahweh.
The gospel is in the name Jehovah/Yehovah because all Hebrew names have meaning and the Heavenly Father’s Name Yehovah means “Hayah, Hoveh, Yihyeh'' and that translates to: “He was, He is, He is to be” In the name is the declaration of the end from the beginning that no other name has the gospel in the name and if we deliver any other gospel but of Him then it's not the correct one. “He was” the God that created the universe, “He is” the God that manifests in the flesh to dissolve the law of divorce, “He is to be” the God that returns manifest in the flesh for His bride.
HalleluYah uses the shortened Name of God in this word. Y from the front and AH from the end, everytime you say Yah H3050 (HalleluYah) it’s His name. YehovAH. Yah is used in many words, and names like Netanyahu which means “Given of Yehovah” or the name Elijah in hebrew is Eliyahu and it means “my God is Yah(YehovAH)” Yah is a proper Hebrew contraction.
But it's YEHovah, why HalleluYAH? Because in Hebrew the spelling changes based on where the emphasis is in the word… Hence the emphasis is at the end of Yehovah “AH” and you get Yah or the Hebrew letters
“yod heh” יָהּ. But why the difference between Netanyahu (given of Yah) and Yehonatan (Yehovah gives)? When the emphasis of God is in the beginning it's Yeho and when it's at the end it's Yah. Both Yah and Yeho mean the name of God Yehovah.
Names in the bible that start with the name of God have (Jeho/Yeho) in the front of the name that means Jehovah/Yehovah with some exceptions.
Jehoadah passing over; testimony of the Lord
Jehoaddan pleasure, or time, of the Lord
Jehoahaz possession of the Lord
Jehoash fire of the Lord
Jehohanan grace, or mercy, or gift, of the Lord
Jehoiachin preparation, or strength, of the Lord
Jehoiada knowledge of the Lord
Jehoiakim avenging, or establishing, or resurrection, of the Lord
Jehoiarib fighting, or multiplying, of the Lord
Jehonadab, Jonadab free giver; liberality
Jehonathan gift of the Lord; gift of a dove
Jehoram exaltation of the Lord
Jehoshaphat the Lord is judge (person and location)
Jehosheba fullness, or oath, of the Lord
Jehovah-jireh the Lord will provide (location)
Jehovah-nissi the Lord my banner (location)
Jehovahshalom the Lord send peace (location)
Jehovah-tsidkenu the Lord our righteousness (a title)
Jehozabad the Lord’s dowry; having a dowry
Jehozadak justice of the Lord
So we have an issue here… so in order for yahweh to be the name, it would mean either all those KJV biblical names that come from the mesorite text are incorrect or were nefariously changed? Neither are likely.
Both Yah and Yeho are shortened forms of Yehovah and even some Ya and Ye in names as well. You can’t have Je/Ye or Jeho/Yeho to mean yahweh because those are improper Hebrew grammar contractions for that name. It just doesn’t work that way in Hebrew.
Yahweh unfortunately is an inaccurate inherited academic mistake from the 1800s by a german named Wilhelm Gesenius
Wilhelm Gesenius is the originator who slipped into the biblical academic world the name “yahweh”.
Gesenius eventually wrote that Jupiter was the supreme Deity of the Emperor and the Roman Empire. In his famous Hebrew Lexicon, Wilhelm Gesenius suggested that the name Ιαβε, Yahweh, may have come from Jupiter. He then later flip flopped on everything he said so He cannot be trusted or accurate on this subject. He’s German, not Hebrew.
Jupiter was the chief deity of the Roman state religion until Constantine replaced it with his Roman version of what became mainstream Christianity today. The Latin word for Jupiter is Jove. Latin has no “J.” The pronunciation of J is “I.” that makes a Y sound as in yellow, The short “o” is the “aw” sound as in “off.” In Roman Latin, the V is pronounced W and all letters “E” are pronounced as “eh” and not silent, making the Roman Latin pronunciation of Jove’ as Yahweh.
There are way too many original manuscripts documents and extra biblical sources that give witness to the gospel in the name of Jehovah/Yehovah which was given to Abraham and the reason he saw his day and rejoiced and makes the bible harmonious and agrees to explain the end from the beginning, the alpha and the omega, and the aleph and the tov.
Understanding Colossians
We know our spouses favorite meals, favorite color, favorite times of relaxation and where to relax, we know when they are sad, we know when they are happy even when we are miles apart we feel it in our spirit. We know what they love, what they hate and what pleases them greatly. We understand what drives them, what pushes them to the limit and how to push them to challenge them to do more. We know all things about our spouse and we should... because we love them.
We know all the intricate things about our spouse but how much do we know about God? Do we know how to rest with Him? Do we know what days He set apart, sanctified and made holy? Do we know when He wants to take time to sit with us, fellowship with us and dine with us? Do we know His favorite color, How He walked, what He loves, what He hates and what pleases Him the most? Do we Know Him intimately like we know our spouse?
If only folks would rightly divide the word and understand Paul.
We have to understand who Paul was because Paul was a Pharisee. Paul knew every yod and tiddle of all the "whole law" and when I mean "whole law" I mean all the 10 commandments of course, and also every word of the oral law and 613 traditions of men. Paul uses the word law interchangeably at times when speaking of one or the other. We have to know his context, we have to know Paul must align with the original words, intent, voice and will of God almighty in heaven in which Jesus came to live out as an example in whose footsteps we follow..
The arrogance of some Christians to feel as though they have the elevated authority to rebel against or accuse the apostles of ending the voice of God, His will and voice just amazes me and shows me how much so many people do not want to know God, who He is, what He loves, what He hates and why He manifest in the flesh to stand in our place for breaching His trust, His love, and His marriage contract.
Do we understand Colossians?
Colossians 2:1-23 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh; (2) That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; (3) In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. (4) And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words. (5) For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ. (6) As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:[what did Jesus do? well He obeyed all the commands out of love, rested on the 7th day and observed the feast of the LORD... that's the walk of Jesus] (7) Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith [fidelity and duty to the marriage contract], as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.[thanks and knowing we are no longer bound to the law of divorce] (8) Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men [the oral law and 613 traditions of men Jesus came and rebuked], after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.[Jesus is the living law of love... not the traditions of men] (9) For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily [God manifest in the flesh of Jesus Christ with His spirit]. (10) And ye are complete in him [able to come back into His embrace through Jesus because He shed His flesh and stood in for our breach of contract], which is the head of all principality and power: (11) In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:[He shed His flesh for us] (12) Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. (13) And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; (14) Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances [Jesus came to rebuke the civil, ceremonial or ecclesiastical oral laws and traditions of men and the law of divorce, dissolved by Jesus] that was against us, which was contrary to us [both traditions of men and divorce were not made for us] , and took it [the traditions of men and the divorce] out of the way, nailing it to his cross; (15) And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly [Jesus rebuked the Pharisees and Judaisers openly with many miracles (water into wine, spit healing the eyes on sabbath, the lame man, and washing of hands all traditions of men and more openly)], triumphing over them in it [destroying their religion and showing us the law of love is the relationship God wants]. (16) Let no man therefore judge you in meat [Many apostles wrote in a way assuming you already read the first part of the bible and know what the list of edible food is, He is telling you some Pharisees esteemed certain diets over other for purification, vegan vs meat, fasting vs eating water over wine], or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days [He showed us that the Pharisees would esteem certain days and length of time for purification to be allowed into the synagogue was not required]: (17) Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ [feast days point to Jesus]. (18) Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, (19) And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God [don't judge others on how they purify or worship as long as they have the minimum law of love... if you desire to do more then do it]. (20) Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances [there is no need to subject yourself or others to the oral laws and traditions of men because they are not required for the relationship of God], (21) (Touch not; taste not; handle not; (22) Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men [these added oral traditions of fasting, vegan vs (clean) meat are not required]? (23) Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh. [traditions of men only satisfy others in the flesh]
Come on folks, the apostles align with God and don't need to reiterate the voice, intent and instructions of God along with the 10 commandments in everything they write… they assume you already know this stuff… it's God’s will 101.

BIBLE STUDY LESSON 01
SERIES V --- JOURNEYS FOR YESHUA
MOSHIACHIANITY SPREADS
THE FIRST MISSIONARY JOURNEY: CYPRUS
From Acts 13:1-12
At Antioch, a number of believers banded together to form what quickly became one of the leading churches, filled with an earnest desire to spread the Good News. Saul worshiped there, as well as such other well-known prophets and teachers as Barnabas; Simeon, who was also called {the Black Man;} Lucius, from Cyrene; and Manaen, who had grown up in the same household with Herod the tetrarch. Ruach HaKodesh spoke to these men as they fasted and prayed together. [Consecrate Barnabas and Saul for a work I have called them to do,] Ruach HaKodesh told them. After praying and fasting again, the men consecrated Saul and Barnabas for the Adonai’s work, placing their hands upon them. Then they sent them out to do what the Adonai wanted. Ruach HaKodesh soon made it clear to Saul and Barnabas that they were to leave on a missionary journey to foreign lands. Their first stop was Seleucia, the seaport for Antioch. From there they sailed to Cyprus, taking with them a young man named John Mark. After preaching at the Jewish synagogues at Salamis, the three crossed the island toward the west, arriving one day at Paphos, where the governor lived. The governor, a very intelligent man named Sergius Paulus, summoned Saul and Barnabas so that he might listen to them share the Word of YHVH. But a sorcerer named Bar-Yeshua, who was also called by his Greek name Elymas, was there, urging the governor to ignore what the missionaries said. Saul, who was also now called Paul, filled with Ruach HaKodesh, looked angrily at him. [You are a son of the devil and an enemy of righteousness,] he said sternly. [You are filled with deceit and evil. Adonai will strike you blind at this time. Perhaps that will stop you from turning people away from Him,] As soon as Paul had said that, the man became blind, and he pleaded for someone to lead him away. When the governor saw this happen, he believed, for he was amazed at what the Adonai had done.
COMMENTARY
PAUL’S FIRST MISSIONARY JOURNEY
The church in Antioch sent out Paul and Barnabas as missionaries to the Gentiles. With John Mark, Barnabas’ cousin, they set sail from Seleucia. Their first stop was at Salamis, on the eastern edge of Cyprus. Working their way across the island, they reached the capital city of Paphos. Boarding another ship, they crossed the Pamphylian Sea to the Bay of Attalia, arriving in the city of Perga. There John Mark left and returned home. Paul and Barnabas went on to Antioch in Pisidia. They preached the Gospel on the Shabbat and were persecuted by the Jews until they were forced to leave. Crossing the district border of Lycaonia, they came to the city of Iconium. Again, they were driven away by the Jews. They moved on to Lystra, arriving finally in Derbe. There they turned around and went back to the port of Attalia. Setting sail once more, they returned to their starting point in Antioch.
Many people believe that the Hebrew name Yaakov was replaced by James in the KJV New Testament at the order of King James.
This is a myth. It wasn't changed in the KJV and King James had nothing to do with it.
The Geneva Bible was published before James was born and also used James in place of Yaakov in the NT. There are two reasons for this:
1. This helps the reader differentiate between the patriarch and the Apostles.
2. James (spelled Iames) was already a common English pronunciation of the Hebrew name Yaakov long before any of these Bible translations.
