"So ought men to love their wives, as their own bodies: he that loveth his wife, loveth himself.
For no man ever yet hated his own flesh, but nourished and cherisheth it, even as the Lord doth the Church."

Eph 5

Too often, couples have a self-centered perspective on marriage, focused only on what they should be receiving from their spouse. But marriage cannot flourish in a self-centered environment. Having a blessed marriage that glorifies God means being attentive to your spouse's needs before your own. And as a general principle, when you focus on loving and serving your spouse, you'll often find that they will be willing to reciprocate. "Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered" (Proverbs 11:25).

4And I saw thrones – and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them – and the lives of those who had been beheaded because of the witness they bore to יהושע and because of the Word of Elohim, and who did not worship the beast, nor his image, and did not receive his mark upon their foreheads or upon their hands. And they lived and reigned with Messiah for a thousand years

Revelation 20

The unfaithful spies of Numbers 13 were democratic and public, while the faithful spies of Joshua 2 were autocratic and secret. I'm not saying that Joshua was a dictator, nor that dictatorships are better than democracies, but any kind of faithful government is better than any kind of unfaithful one.

People are emboldened by fearless leadership. Tentative leaders make for a cowardly people. Doubt and evil speech are contagious. Fear not. Believe in the power of God and speak out in #faith. Numbers 14:1

BIBLE STUDY LESSON 22

SERIES R --- THE GOOD SHEPHERD

TO FOLLOW YESHUA

WHAT DOES IT COST TO FOLLOW?

From Luke 9:57-62

One day as Yeshua was walking with His disciples, a man told Him, [Wherever You go, I will go, too.] Yeshua answered, [Foxes have holes and birds have nests, but I have no home of My own.] Another man said that he wanted to be Yeshua’ disciple, but not until his father died. Yeshua said to him, [That is the kind of thinking for unbelievers, those who are without everlasting life. If you want to be My disciple, you must go now and preach the Kingdom of YHVH.] Still another man said to Yeshua, [I want to follow You, but first I want to go home and take care of things there.] Yeshua replied, [Whoever puts his hand to the plough, but keeps on looking back at the old life, is unfit for the Kingdom of YHVH.]

BAD BROTHERLY ADVICE

From John 7:1-9

Yeshua went about Galilee at this time, deliberately staying out of Judea where the Jewish leaders were plotting to kill Him. But when it came time for the Feast of Tabernacles, Yeshua’ brothers gave Him some bad advice. [Leave Galilee and go to Judea so that people can see Your miracles,] they told Him. [If You want to become well known, You must go where the people are gathered. Since You are doing great miracles, show them to the world.] It was obvious that His own brothers did not realize who He was. Yeshua answered them, [You can go down to the feast at any time, for people don’t hate you the way they hate Me. But this is the wrong time for Me to go, for I have told the world about its sin. No, you go on to the feast and I will stay here until the right time.] Having told His brothers this, Yeshua stayed behind in the region of Galilee.

TOWARD JERUSALEM

From John 7:10; Luke 9:51-56

After His brothers had left, Yeshua went toward Jerusalem, However, instead of going the usual way, He went secretly by another route. Because the time had drawn near for Yeshua to return to heaven, He knew that it was time to go to Jerusalem. Before entering a village of Samaria, He sent some messengers to prepare the way for Him. But the Samaritans would not welcome Yeshua because He was headed for Jerusalem. When James and John realized this, they said, [Adonai, would You like us to call down fire from heaven to destroy them, the way Elijah did?] Yeshua scolded them for saying this. [You don’t even know what spirit is causing you to say this,] He said. Instead of staying in that village, they went on to another.

COMMENTARY

THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES

Each autumn, in late September or early October, when the harvest was completed, there was a joyous festival in Jerusalem. All Israelite men and boys were expected to make their pilgrimage to Jerusalem and to participate in this time of feasting and ceremony. This feast has been known at different times as The Feast of Ingathering, The Feast of Booths, or The Feast of Tabernacles. It was established by the Adonai when He gave the Law to Moses at Mount Sinai. This was an occasion for celebration, a time of great joy, with thanksgiving for the harvest, and something of a great {family reunion} in the Holy City. Tribes and distant family members found this a prime time to talk together and catch up on family news and gossip. All family members came along whenever possible. Families built booths throughout the city, made from the branches of palms, willows, and other leafy trees. In these leafy booths families camped throughout the seven days of the festival. Adonai Commanded that the people make these booths to remind them that their ancestors lived in similar booths in the wilderness on their way from Egypt to Canaan. The festival officially lasted seven days, with an eighth day added as a day of rest. The people lived in the booths during the seven days only. As pilgrims gathered branches for booths, each added enough to make a plume called a lulab {sometimes called lulav or lulbah}, a symbol of rejoicing. This plume was waved during certain ceremonies, especially during the daily singing of the Hallel, -- Psalms 113-118. During each night the temple was illuminated with great menorah, the seven-branched lamp stands. Wicks were made from the worn-out garments of the priests. This temple illumination was a witness against the darkness of heathenism. Each morning at dawn two priests with silver trumpets stepped from among a crowd of Levites who had gathered on the fifteen steps that led from the Court of Women. To signal the dawn, they blew a threefold blast, then another as they reached the tenth step. Still blowing their trumpets, they went through the Beautiful Gate of the temple, faced westward toward the holy place of the temple. There they recited, [Our fathers, who were in this place, they turned their backs on the Sanctuary of YHVH, and their faces eastward, for they worshipped eastward, the sun; but we, our eyes are turned toward YHVH. A second ceremony took place each morning. The people divided into three groups. One stayed in the temple, watching the preparation for the morning offerings of animals. Another group went in a procession with priests to a certain place in the Kidron Valley where they gathered willow branches. They returned to watch the priests put these branches in an arch across the altar. Another procession followed a priest to the Pool of Siloam where he gathered water in a golden pitcher and returned with it to the temple when the first offerings were placed on the altar. This priest, and another priest, with a container of wine, ascended to the altar and poured their water and wine into two silver funnels at the base of the altar. Then the crowds began to chant the Hallel. Levites chanted the first line of each psalm and the crowds repeated it. But as the Levites chanted each following line, the crowd responded {HalleluYah,} {Praise ye Adonai Eloheinu}. On the seventh and final day people and priests shook off the leaves of their willow branches and beat their palm branches to pieces around the altar. That afternoon they dismantled their booths and the festival was officially ended. It was on this seventh and final day of the feast that Yeshua called out, [If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.] Some believe that this happened at the time of the outpouring of the golden pitcher water. To unbelievers, Yeshua’ statement would have been an offense. But to others, who had gathered in Jerusalem, the true meaning of the outpouring of the water came to life before their eyes.

“While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” --יֵשׁוּעַ
Yoḥanan (John) 9:5 TS2009
For the command (mitzvah מִצְוָה) is a lamp (נֵר ner), And the Torah (תּוֹרָה‎) a light (אוֹר ohr), And reproofs (rebukes) of discipline a way of life (chayyim חַיִּים),
Mishlĕ (Proverbs) 6:23 TS2009

WHAT IS TRUTH? EMET (אֶמֶת) - TRUTH
When something is true, it is TRUE from the beginning, middle to end!
Emet 'trueness' (emet אֶמֶת) Aleph א (אלף), Tav (תוָ) ת is in Emet, Mem (מ) is in the middle of the Alephbet.
Who established His Truth? YeHoVaH,
El Elyon, G-d Most High, Creator of the Heavens and Earth, Elohim the Living G-d,
El Emet - The G-d of truth❣️
Our Creator established His Truth in the beginning, He is El Elyon, the Creator of the Heavens and Earth.
The Almighty (El Shaddai) established His emet - truth in the beginning. His living Word (Torah) is Truth. Torah is the foundation of ???Truth.????
Torah is LOVE/אַהֲבָה❣️Ro.13:10?
Yeshua is DIVINE (Adjective) of, relating to, or proceeding directly from El Elyon (G-d), the Supreme Being & YeHoVaH is THE DEITY (Noun) El Elyon (G-d); Supreme Being.
וַיְבָ֤רֶךְ אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶת־י֣וֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִ֔י וַיְקַדֵּ֖שׁ אֹת֑וֹ כִּ֣י ב֤וֹ שָׁבַת֙ מִכָּל־מְלַאכְתּ֔וֹ אֲשֶׁר־בָּרָ֥א אֱלֹהִ֖ים לַֽעֲשֽׂוֹת:
The last three words in the story of Creation: “...bara Elōhîm laasot —[He rested from all His work] which G‑d created and made.” The final letters of these three words (אמת),
בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים לַעֲשֽׂוֹת,
spells the word emet (אֶמֶת). Why? Because G‑d’s painting is imbued with His signature of truth.???????
⚡️?HIS BANNER is TRUTH?

What then is the advantage of the Yehuḏi, or what is the value of the circumcision? Much in every way! Because firstly indeed, that they were entrusted with the Words of Elohim.

“And if you have not been trustworthy in what is another man’s, who shall give you what is your own? Luqas (Luke) 16:12 TS2009

?Yisra’ĕl as a Nation was chosen by the Almighty to be His representative. A Kingdom of Priests to reconcile the world back to the worship of the One True G-d. ? The word Echad means one, it is never plural. אֶחָד ('ecḥāḏ). The Aleph א means one.

Although we are using the English language (words) to communicate the Hebrew Holy Scriptures, they are still describing a Hebrew culture, they are describing a Nation of Yisra’ĕl. The context is Yisra’ĕl, the context is the Torah (תּוֹרָה‎). And it is a Nation that was called to live out the Torah (תּוֹרָה‎).????ARA
