For if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
#exodus 10:4 #bo

Pharaoh thought poorly of the Hebrews but also feared that their growing numbers would overwhelm Egypt. Once again, God gave Pharaoh more of what he already believed he had, but in the form of a plague of locusts: a lowly horde that overwhelmed Egypt. See Exodus 10:4-6.

Interesting how that works, huh?

Re-reading Torah in Hebrew

Re-reading Torah in Hebrew

#exodus 9:35 says that Pharaoh hardened his own heart. The Hebrew word for hardened in this verse is chezek, which also means to strengthen. The very next verse, 10:1, says that God hardened Pharaoh's heart. The Hebrew word for hardened in the 2nd verse is chabad, which also means to make heavy (as in important) or to glorify. The implication is that Pharaoh resolved to defy God, so God encouraged him by inflating his ego, making him think that he might be able to get away with it.

Welcome to join the group art & paintings here on the Torah network:

(oilpainting, "before exodus", sold).

Welcome to art & paintings!

This group is made by me, Nina Björk on a inquiry from The Torah Network. I am happy for the inquiry and hope that we, the artist of Torah belivers and art interested Torah belivers, can find each other here, and maybe you can find something you like.

I work as an proferssional artist, paint mostly in oil or acrylic and have education in portrait art. I love to listen to music or text from books or teachings or listen or chat with a friend when I paint. It have a good effect on how I paint, it makes me more relaxed and free in my expression.

FORGIVENESS -- PART 4

WHAT CAN I DO TO ACTIVATE YHVH’S LOVING FORGIVENESS?

WHY WOULD YHVH WANT TO FORGIVE ME FOR A TERRIBLE SIN?
Numbers 14:19: Please pardon the sins of this people because of Your magnificent, unfailing Love. YHVH’s Love is His motivation for His forgiveness.

DO I HAVE TO FORGIVE OTHERS WHO HURT ME?
Matthew 6:14-15: If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins. -- We will receive YHVH’s forgiveness only when we are willing to forgive others who have wronged us.

Remember, Elohim forgave you, so you must forgive others. 1 Peter 3:8-9: Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate when people say unkind things about you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what YHVH wants you to do and He will bless you for it. -- YHVH wants us to respond to others’ sins by blessing them.

IS THERE A LIMIT TO THE NUMBER OF TIMES WE SHOULD FORGIVE A PERSON? IS THERE A LIMIT TO HOW MUCH YHVH WILL FORGIVE ME?

Isaiah 1:18: Come now, let us argue this out, says Elohim. No matter how deep the stain of your sins, I can remove it. I can make you as clean as freshly fallen snow. Even if you are stained as red as crimson, I can make you as white as wool. Joel 2:32: Anyone who calls on the Name of Elohim will be saved. -- No matter how sinful and disobedient we have been, we can receive YHVH’s forgiveness by turning to Him in repentance.
