“By David:
Adonai is my light and salvation; whom do I need to fear? Adonai is the stronghold of my life; of whom should I be afraid? When evildoers assailed me to devour my flesh, my adversaries and foes, they stumbled and fell. If an army encamps against me, my heart will not fear; if war breaks out against me, even then I will keep trusting. Just one thing have I asked of Adonai; only this will I seek: to live in the house of Adonai all the days of my life, to see the beauty of Adonai and visit in his temple. For he will conceal me in his shelter on the day of trouble, he will hide me in the folds of his tent, he will set me high on a rock. Then my head will be lifted up above my surrounding foes, and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing, sing praises to Adonai. Listen, Adonai, to my voice when I cry; show favor to me; and answer me. “My heart said of you, ‘Seek my face.’” Your face, Adonai, I will seek. Do not hide your face from me, don’t turn your servant away in anger. You are my help; don’t abandon me; don’t leave me, God my savior. Even though my father and mother have left me, Adonai will care for me. Teach me your way, Adonai; lead me on a level path because of my enemies — don’t give me up to the whims of my foes; for false witnesses have risen against me, also those who are breathing violence. If I hadn’t believed that I would see Adonai’s goodness in the land of the living,... Put your hope in Adonai, be strong, and let your heart take courage! Yes, put your hope in Adonai!”
Tehillim (Psa) 27:1-14 CJB
Can the human brain calculate how much YHVH love us? In Yeshua's the time the Romans in Yerushalayim made use of different types of crosses. And, what us believers not always think about is that fact that they did not only crucify men but also women and sometimes dogs. A 2nd thing is that in Deuteronomy we read that hanging on a tree is a curse. If one should die in the Jewish tradition of that time, it was done by stoning, which is not a curse but in Roman tradition, it was crucifixion. Nailed to a tree which was a curse. The nails of that time was not through the flesh of the person but through the bone and they had on either side of the nail olive wood pieces that served as a type of blocking so that the person cannot shake him or herself loose. (Archaeologists found evidence of these nails in 1968 near Golgotha. By using a cornu/horn (a seat on the cross of the person to pull him/herself up for a short while, the death was prolonged. One must also remember that crosses was not that high from the ground because in many instances, after a crucifixion, bodies were left on the cross for wild dogs, hyenas and other animal that torn the body apart from the crosses. In that time, it was the most painful excruciating death imaginable! Yeshua was not only spit on, beat, kicked, embarrassed, made fun of and tormented, but He was also cursed by being crucified. Again, do we really realise how much love that must take to go through all this just to have a relationship with us? And many still crucify Him today by rejecting Him and His love for us. I wish sometimes that I had the ability to just grab this world by the shoulders and shake some sense into them. Baruch Attah Adonai Eloheinu Melech HaOlam! Ani ohev Yahuah Eloheinu!
