central axis) Gen 5:29, He called his name Noah, saying: “This same shall comfort us in our work and in the toil of our hands, which comes from the ground which Yehovah has cursed;”

2b) Gen 5:30, Lamech lived after he begot Noah 595 years, and begot sons + daughters;

2a) Gen 5:31 {s} All the days of Lamech were 777 years; and he died.

Original Hebrew

Gen 5:29, Noah, is Strong’s H5146 (the proper name), the same as Strong’s H5118, nuach, a resting place, from Strong’s H5117, the primitive root, nuach, to rest. The three letter root is nun + vav + chet.

nun = the seed, thus continue, heir, son
vav = the tent peg, thus add, secure, hook
chet = the wall, thus outside, divide, half

The story the ancient Hebrew pictographs are painting, is of continuing (nun) securely (vav) outside (chet). There are two possible explanations. “Outside” is beyond, on the other side of, the tent wall wherein the family dwells, or the enclosure fence, wherein the tribe dwells. Within the tent walls and within the enclosure fence, the family and the tribe is secure. But to also be secure beyond the tent wall and beyond the enclosure fence, that is true security indeed.

And the second, suggested by Dr. Benner’s Ancient Hebrew Lexicon, is that it is beyond the enclosure fence that the shepherd leads his flock to a place of green pasture and still water, where he makes them lie down in safety.

This is the first occurrence of nuach in Scripture, but interestingly enough, it is not the first occurrence of “to rest.”

And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. Gen 2:2

“Rested” is Strong’s H7673, the primitive root, shabath, to cease. The three-letter root is shin + bet + tav.

shin = two front teeth, thus sharp, press, eat, two, again
bet = the house, thus house, household, family, in, within
tav = crossed sticks, thus mark, sign, signal, monument

The story the ancient Hebrew pictographs are telling, is of pressing in (shin) to home (bet), for work in ancient times was done in the fields, so when one returned home, it was because the work was done for the day and it was time to sit and rest. When one pressed in to home, when one ceased from labor and took their rest, that action is a sign or signal (tav) that marked that person.

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak also to the children of Israel, saying: ‘Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the Lord who sanctifies you. You shall keep the Sabbath, therefore, for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work on it, that person shall be cut off from among his people. Work shall be done for six days, but the seventh is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual covenant. It is a sign between Me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.’” Exo 31:12-17

“Moreover I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign between them and Me, that they might know that I am the Lord who sanctifies them.” Eze 20:12

“‘I am the Lord your God: Walk in My statutes, keep My judgments, and do them; hallow My Sabbaths, and they will be a sign between Me and you, that you may know that I am the Lord your God.’” Eze 20:19-20

Keeping the Sabbath holy – resting from work, because it is the LORD who sanctifies us, not we ourselves (Eph 2:8-9) – is the sign which marks the Lord’s people. Why do we desire to be marked as the Lord’s? Because the antichrist’s people also bear his mark.

He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Rev 13:16-17

If anyone has an ear, let him hear. Rev 13:9

❤ "Your Word/Torah is truth" ❤

I have covered Paul several times on this comic due to the common misunderstanding of him. I thought it would be a good idea to point out how people saying Paul is talking against doing the Torah are actually reading Paul out of context.

This first example is Paul in Acts 21. This is after Paul hears the council's decision on what to tell the Gentiles in Acts 15. This is after Paul visits the places he sends letters to: Thessalonica, Corinth, and Ephesus, as well as several other Roman cities.

Here in Acts 21, the council has heard that Paul was speaking against following Torah, but the council said they knew this wasn't true. (Anyone remember Stephen and what they falsely accused him of?) - To prove that Paul wasn't teaching against the Torah, they have Paul do a public ritual in the Torah. Paul doesn't argue. Paul doesn't say "no, you guys, it's all grace now. We just believe in Yeshua." Paul went and showed, as James put it, his faith BY his works.

Good morning! After a lot of editing, re-writing, and formatting, my testimony (so far) has been condensed into 3 articles (not several) for easier reading. Thanks so much to all who read them and saw past all of the issues I was having trying to get it all straightened out :D They are as final as can be for now, and I will get to work on getting Part 4 - the Sabbath written soon. <3

God/Yahweh expects us to be radically transformed. We are to become like Him in character. We do this through the power of the Holy Spirit/Ruach haKodesh and by staying in His Word. Interestingly these take an act of our will:
1. We become a new creation -- 2 Corinthians 5:17
2. We are made new in the attitude of our minds -- Ephesians 4:23
3. We put off our old self and put on the new self -- Ephesians 4:22-24; Colossians 3:9-10
4. We live by the Spirit, not by the flesh -- Galatians 5:16; Romans 8:13
5. We become instruments of righteousness -- Romans 6:13
6. We have become set free from sin and become slaves to Yahweh -- Romans 6:22
