is for you too!

Scripture speaks of a secret place where we can simply go, be alone, be

protected, pray, and hear from Yahuahshua. Knowing there is such a

place is a matter of faith. Going back time and again, that's a matter of

building a relationship. You need not have an advanced degree in any

subject, need not have memorized Scripture from beginning to end, but

instead be aware the YaHuWaH of Y’ISCHRa’EL has a place for each

Jew and Gentile who will open their minds and hearts to Him.

Mt 6:5-8

When you pray, you shall not be as the role-fakers, for they love to

stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that

they may be seen by men. Most certainly, I tell you, they have received

their reward. But you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber,

and having shut your door, pray to your Father Who is in secret, and

your Father Who sees in secret shall reward you openly. In praying,

don’t use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they

shall be heard for their much speaking. Therefore don’t be like them,

don't you see that your Father knows what things you need before you

ask Him.

The truth in reality is visited in this secret place AND must be shared by

those who will live or else ... they will perish ... in darkness.

It is written

Lu 11:33

“No one, when he has lit a Lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket,

but on a stand, that those who come in may see the Light.

Teh. 119:105

Your Word is a Lamp to my feet, and a Light (aur) for my path.

The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your

whole body is also full of Light; but when it is evil, your body also is full

of darkness. Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.

If therefore your whole body is full of Light, having no part dark, it shall

be wholly full of Light, as when the Lamp with its bright shining gives

you Light.”

With this in mind, heart soul and strength let us study together in the

Ruwach

And now brothers and sisters

Come out of the secret place bearing light!

who see it from afar. The Secret Place, here, shines a bit of light so

many can see from afar. The topics we have chosen are addressed to

Jew and Gentile together. We do this because that is what the Bible

does. This opens the window to make more sense of what Scripture tells

us!

In the secret place is plain language, something simple to read. This is a

mere starting place for deeper consideration.

Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness [breaks Torah]. In fact, sin

is lawlessness [being without Torah].

Everything we say, do and act is nothing when not in the realms of HIS

RIGHTEOUSNESS, how can we learn righteousness or its meaning less

we study the scriptures

How can we hope in our own resurrection and immortality?

It is not possible.

But they didn’t listen nor turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels

and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not

forward

The Writing is on the wall

This is the nation that has not listened to the Voice of YaHuWaH their

Aluahiym, nor received instruction: truth is perished, and is cut off from

their mouth.

No matter how much we rely on our own goodness, it’s not enough, how

can you be so blind to the very truth that sets you free, and grants

access to immortal self-life

For while we still are sinners, he forgives us

Bayith Tsayad

ית יד ב צ

Hunter of righteousness

In this scripture is more than meets the eye

Mark 8:22

YaHuWSHuWaH came to Bayith Tsayad. They brought a blind man to

Him, and begged Him to touch him. YaHuWSHuWaH took hold of the

blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When He had

spit on his eyes, and laid His hands on him, and asked him if he saw

anything He looked up, and said, “I see men; for I see them like

trees walking.” Then again YaHuWSHuWaH laid His hands on his eyes,

and made him look up, and he was restored, and saw everyone clearly.

It is HE who GRANTS us to SEE, to HEAR. And WALK

But be doers of the Word/Miltha, and not only hearers, deluding

your own selves.

(Please read the next scripture carefully)

Hebrews 8:10

But this is the covenant I will make with the people of Ysra'al on That

Day, says YaHuWaH: I will put My Torah in their mind so they will

understand them, and I will write them on their hearts so they will obey

them. I will be their Aluahiym, and they will be my people.

YaHuWaH of the Aluahiym has drawn up a covenant (contract) and it is

non-negotiable,

YirmeYahuw 7:23

but this thing I commanded them, saying, Listen to My Voice, and I shall

be your Aluahiym, and you shall be My people; and walk in all the Way

that I command you, that it may be well with you.

YaHuWShuWaH has purchased the believer, body, soul and Ruwach by

His own blood. Let, us therefore, be careful what we do with another’s

property. Let our bodies be kept as His they are and fit for His use and

residence.

The people who sat in darkness saw a Great Light, to those who sat in

the region and shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”

YaHuWSHuWaH said, the foremost of all the commandments is

Hebrew translation.

Long for: or, love

be passionately committed to.

Resolve: literally, heart—the innermost center of our being, where we

find our balance--the seat of our motivation, determination, and

inclinations. Before embarking on any venture, we must ask how it will

put Him first. If it cannot, there is no place for it. Unlike the Gentiles, we

are to seek His kingdom and His righteousness first.

But seek first YaHuWaH’s Reign, and His righteousness

Mat. 6:31-34

Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’, ‘What shall we

drink?’ or, ‘With what shall we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all

these things; for your shamayim Father knows that you need all these

things. But seek first YaHuWaH’s Reign, and His righteousness; and all

these things shall be given to you as well. Therefore don’t be anxious for

tomorrow, for tomorrow shall be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is

sufficient.

How do we do this? By obeying the Torah, which is summarized here. It

comes from a root meaning to bake bread.

1 Cor. 10:17

As therefore that bread is one, so we, who are many, are one body; for

we all partake of that one bread.

Partake: soul, life-force, or appetite, from a root meaning inhale or

refresh oneself. What the wicked hunger for will leave him hungry, but

what the righteous “eats” will satisfy him.

Prov. 13:25

The righteous one eats to the satisfying of his soul,

but the belly of the wicked goes hungry.

Satisfying : the same word used in Hebrew for “very much”, from a root

meaning to rake burning coals or embers together. What should burn

within us is love for YaHuWaH. How do we love Him with our resources?

By giving them away for His use. We would waste them if we spent

them all on ourselves, but if they are in His “account”, they last forever.

When we give them up, they no longer weigh us down. YaHuWSHuWaH

said this verse was the greatest commandment in the Torah. But He said

a second was “like it”—that of loving our neighbor as ourselves.

WaYiqra (and He Called) 19:18

You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children

of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am

YaHuWaH.

This is because loving those from the same flock—literally, who graze

from the same pasture as we do—is a large part of what YaHuWaH

wants from us

Mikha 6:8,

He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does YaHuWaH require

of you, but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your

Aluahiym?

so if we do not do this, we will not truly be loving YaHuWaH either.

1 Yahuwchanan 4:20-21

If a man says, “I love YaHuWaH,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for

he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love

YaHuWaH Whom he has not seen? This Commandment we have from

Him, that he who loves YaHuWaH should also love his brother.

This is the first and great commandment. A second likewise is this,

( in the instruction/makers handbook, the manual of human life, guides

us in the love of our neighbor)

To love ones neighbor is to walk in The Torah, which is to walk has

YaHuWSHuWaH did, the written word of YaHuWaH, that became flesh

and blood, where no sin was found in him,

HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS,

is the LIGHT the very CLOAK of YaHuWaH

Aluahiym said

Let there be Light [YaHuWSHuWaH],” and Light came to be.

Aluahiym said, “Let Us make beings in our image, after our likeness: and

let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of

the heavens, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over

every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

Image:

The word “image” really means "shadow", and indeed we present an

"outline" of what He is like, but in Scripture, "shadow" is often used to

mean being under His protection.

Aluahiym created us has unfinished works of Ruwach beings in His Own

image [and the Powerful One filled the man with His shadow]. In

Aluahiym’s image He created him; male and female He created them.

"Ancient Adam"

once bore the "full image of YaHuWaH", which has in it both masculine

and feminine qualities, until the two were separated in order to be able

to voluntarily come back together. Thus the image was lost, but at the

right time in history the Messenger and Message of YaHuWaH was

"made flesh" (by YaHuWaH) and there again existed a Man "in whom

the fullness of Aluahiym's nature dwelt bodily", who could rightfully be

called "the image of the invisible Aluahiym"

Colossians 1:15

Who is the likeness of the invisible Aluah, Firstborn of all creatures.

Colossians 2:9

For in Him, all the Fullness of the Mightiness dwells bodily,

who revealed and manifested as far as possible the One no one can ever

see.

Yahuwchanan 1:18

No one has ever seen YaHuWaH; but the only-begotten Son, Who is in

the bosom of the Father, He has made Him known.

His obedience

at the precise point at which the first Adam failed,

Philippians 2:6

Who, as He was in the likeness of Aluahiym, did not regard it sinful to be

the coequal of Aluahiym?

Who, existing in the form of Aluahiym, didn’t consider equality with

Aluahiym a thing to be grasped, (as did Huwah and Adam )

Gen. 3:6

Then the woman saw that the tree was good for food [lust of the flesh],

and that it was a delight [craving] to the eyes [lust of the eyes], and that

the tree was to be desired to make one wise [pride of life], she took of

its fruit, and ate; and she gave some to her husband with her, and he

ate.

"be like Aluahiym"

made it possible for others to have the hope of sharing the restoration in

the Day in which we see him.

1 Yahuwchanan 3:2

Beloved, now we are B'ney YaHuWaH, and it is not yet revealed what we

will be. But we know that, when He is revealed, we will be like Him; for

we will see Him just as He is.

Male and female: the root words themselves mean "marked" and

"pierced"--the very description of the one who later did what was

necessary to restore the full image of Aluahiym.

Yash. 53;

Who has believed our report? To whom has the Arm of YaHuWaH been

revealed? For He grew up before Him as a tender plant, and as a root

out of dry ground. He has no form nor comeliness. When we see Him,

there is no beauty that we should desire Him. He was despised, and

rejected by men; a Man of suffering, and acquainted with disease. He

was despised as One from whom men hide their face; and we didn’t

respect Him. Surely He has carried off our infirmities, and bore our

suffering; yet we considered Him plagued, struck by Aluahiym, and

afflicted But He was pierced for our transgressions. It was because of

our crookedness that He was so harshly beaten. The punishment that

brought our shalom was on Him; and by His stripes we are healed! All we

like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and

YaHuWaH has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, yet

when He was afflicted He opened not His mouth. As a lamb that is led

to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is mute, so He

opened not His mouth. He was taken from prison and from due process;

and as for His generation, who considered that He was cut off out of the

land of the living and stricken for the transgression of My people? 53:9

And He was appointed a grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in

His death; although He had done no violence, neither was any deceit in

His mouth.0 Yet it pleased YaHuWaH to bruise Him. He has caused Him

to suffer, that when He made Himself an offering for guilt, He shall see

His seed. He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of YaHuWaH shall

prosper in His hand. He shall see the the results of the suffering of His

life and be satisfied. Through His knowledge My righteous Servant,

makes the many righteous, and He bears their crookedness. Therefore

shall I divide Him a portion with the great, and He shall divide the spoil

with the strong; because He poured out His being to death, and was

numbered with the transgressors; yet He bore the sin of the many, and

made intercession for the transgressors.

Zkh. 12:10

I will pour on the House of Dawiyd, and on the inhabitants of

Yahrushalom, the Ruwach of acceptance/favour and of supplication

[begging for favor]; and they will look on Me, Aleph wTaw, Whom they

have pierced; and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for His only

Son, and will grieve bitterly for Him, as one grieves over His Firstborn.

(Me is YaHuWaH .... Him is YaHuWSHuWaH)

... the Piercing of YaHuWaH ...... I will pour out on the house of Dawiyd

and on the inhabitants of Yahrushalom, the Ruwach of favor and of

supplication, so that they will look on Me whom they have pierced; and

they will mourn for Him, as one mourns for an only son, and they will

weep bitterly over Him like the bitter weeping over a firstborn. The first

thing to notice is that the direct object pointer a-t (aleph-taw) is meant

to show what part of the sentence receives action. In this case, the part

that receives the action is YaHuWaH, Who is Himself pierced! This fact

though raises an uncomfortable question: Since YaHuWaH is Ruwach,

how can He be pierced? The answer is a few words later in the same

verse. The phrase "only son" and it is an exclusive singularity, meaning

that only the HaMaSHiYaCH has an occurrence of YaHuWaH's nature, as

opposed to a separate Mighty-like nature, which would be idolatry. And

so, guarantees that HaMaSHiYaCH is the only human who has had, or

ever will have, an Occurrence of the one Mighty-like nature living

separately, and yet side by side, in His own human nature. You don't

have to go to the Gospels then to get the truth of this matter.

Furthermore, the Ruwach of YaHuWaH is said to rest upon

HaMaSHiYaCH, and so if the flesh of the man containing YaHuWaH's

Ruwach is pierced, then metaphorically speaking so is YaHuWaH pierced.

Therefore, in ZekarYahuw’s case, the placement of a-t (aleph-taw)leaves

no doubt whatsoever that it is YaHuWaH receiving the action of piercing,

and yet they mourn for Him (HaMaSHiYaCH) as an only Son! That fact

alone clearly proves that YaHuWaH is somehow pierced and yet He does

not die, but it also shows that His son does! But then, if the Son can

die, how is He "equal" with YaHuWaH Who can never die? The answer is

in understanding the difference between "equal" in Aramaic and English.

When we say "equal" we mean a sense of equivalence, such as 2 +2 =

4. However, to say "equal with Aluahiym" in this context does not mean

identical but rather "of the same substance as Aluahiym". What's the

difference? Well, water and ice are the same substance but are they

identical? Does each one act or is able to do the exact same things as

the other two? In the same way, HaMaSHiYaCH is made up of the

same "Mighty-like stuff" as YaHuWaH, but is given a subservient function

by the very nature of the fact that He has become human. That is also

why He can say "I am nothing without My Father", because without that

Mighty-like part, he is just another man! Over a firstborn: This is the

ultimate in weeping. YaHuWSHuWaH is indeed called the “firstborn”.

(Luke 2:7; Rom. 8:29; Col. 1:15, 18; Heb. 11:28; 12:23) And this is what

is being described—the mass acceptance of YaHuWSHuWaH by the Jews

in the Land, for He must be king over all of Ysra'al. (Can a Land be born

in one day?) Interestingly, while it was the tribe of Yahuwdah that first

crowned YaHuWSHuWaH ancestor David, Yahuwdah was the last tribe to

accept him back after the rebellion of Abshalom, who is a picture of the

Counterfeit HaMaSHiYaCH. (2 Shmuel 2:4; 19:11)

Because he made a way to get us back to “oneness”, restoring the

possibility of relationship that Adam had with YaHuWaH, we are told that

in Him there is neither male nor female.

Galatians 3:28

There is no longer Yahuwdite or gentile, slave or free, male or female.

For you are all Nätsärim--you are one in HaMaSHiYaCH YaHuWSHuWaH.

In Aluahiym’s image He created Adam. Whom he placed above the

messengers

YaHuWaH Aluahiym among the trees of the garden.

(Trees of Righteousness)

for Adam was created the son of YaHuWaH

yet sin made him unfinished

You were in Eden, the garden of Aluahiym; every precious stone

adorned you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire,

turquoise, and beryl. The workmanship of your percussion instruments

and your socket-cavities were right within yourself; on the day that you

were created they were securely fastened and made ready.

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the Truth is

not in us. If we confess our sins, He is trustworthy and righteous in

2 Timothy 3:16

All Scripture is Breathed by YaHuWaH and is profitable for teaching, for

reproof, for setting straight, for instruction in righteousness, that the

man of Aluahiym might be fitted, equipped for every good work.

Roms 15:4

For everything written of old was written for our instruction (Torah),

that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we

might have hope.

YaHuWaH says to you, “How long do you refuse to guard My

Commandments and My Instructions? Behold, because YaHuWaH has

He said to them, “The Shabbath was made for the sake of man, not man

for the sake of the Shabbath. Therefore the Son of Adam is Master even

of the Shabbath.”

Mat 19:16

And behold, one came and said to him, Good Master, what good thing

shall I do that I may have eternal life? And he said to him, Why callest

thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt

enter into life,

Keep the Commandments.

He saith to him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou

shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false

witness. Honor thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy

neighbor as thyself.

The young man saith to him, All these things have I kept from my youth:

what lack I yet? Jesus said to him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell

what thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in

heaven:

and come and follow me.

not in us.

And if any man sinneth, we have an advocate with the Father,

YaHuWShuWaH HaMaSHiYaCH the righteous:

1 Jn_3:4

Whoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law; for sin is the

transgression of the law.

Who is weak, and I am not weak?

Rom 7:1

Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law) that

the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?

Modern Translation

Or are you ignorant, brothers and sisters (because I am speaking to

those who are knowledgeable in legal matters) that the law holds

dominion over a man only as long as he is alive?

Legal matters: or, the Torah (in particular).

Rom 7:14

For we know that the law is Ruwachual: but I am carnal, sold under sin

Rom 7:15

For that which I do, I allow not: for what I would, that I do not; but

what I hate, that I do.

No matter how high our ideals, we are not equipped to live according to

the laws of a pure nature when we ourselves are corrupt.

Rom 7:16

If then I do that which I would not, I consent to the law that it is good.

I concur wholeheartedly, but the fallen nature renders me unable to

respond to this new upward pull because of the greater natural strength

of the evil inclination which, like a spiritual law of gravity, is also present.

The Torah's failure to justify us before YHWH lies not from any defect in

the teachings themselves, but in us who misuse them. (Berkowitz)

Praiseworthy: Aramaic, beautiful. Again, this is Paul’s root opinion about

the Torah, by which we must interpret all his other statements!

Rom 7:17

Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

/Inhabits dwelleth: Aram., dominates, as a slave master who can order

one to act against his better judgment. Enchained to Adam’s mutated

genetic makeup, our habits are still evil, but once we agree with YHWH’s

verdict and stop trying to justify ourselves, we receive a new option,

though the old is still with us until physical death frees us from it.

Rom 7:18

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for

to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good, I find

not.

Nothing useful resides in me: Lamsa renders the Aramaic, “Yet I know

that it does not fully dominate me.” Present with me: near at hand, yet

still just out of reach—an excruciating source of frustration. (v. 24)

Aramaic, easy (simple) for me.

Rom 7:19

For the good that I would, I do not; but the evil which I would not, that

I do.

Rom 7:20

Now if I do that which I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that

dwelleth in me.

The new nature remains entrapped by our bodies' remaining weakness,

but YHWH no longer counts this our truest self--see 8:1,2; He does not

recognize us as the ones living out our old tendencies, but lays the

blame on the slavemaster who gave the orders, as the higher-in-

command is considered the real war criminal, not the one forced to carry

them out.

Rom 7:21

I find then a law, that when I would do good, evil is present with me.

Law: here, an operative principle, not a command, though using the

same term heightens the sense of tension between our natural

inclination and YHWH’s requirements. Stern renders it, “a kind of

perverse ‘torah’.” Nearer at hand: distracting me from what I really want

to pay attention to. It is our “nearer kinsman” that stands in the way of a

better one redeeming us.

(Ruth 3:12) “I find a Torah that unites with my mind, which desires to

do right.”

His Cloak of Righteousness I Seek

For in me there is no self-righteousness, but through his forgiveness,

that brings forth kindness: nothing I can do will save me, I reach out

BLIND stumbling in life towards HIS LIGHT

Rom 7:22

For I delight in the law of YaHuWaH, after the inward man:

Which I received of him,

Rom 7:23

But I see another law in my members warring against the law of my

mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my

“law”, the same word used here for Torah. Mind: reason, capacity for

spiritual truth, higher powers of the soul to recognize the right and hate

the evil.

O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this

death?

What a miserable man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is

given over to [what only brings] death?

Miserable: wretched, troubled, afflicted. Rescue me: or, draw me to

Himself. Given over to: or sold into slavery to “this whole morbid

package of frustrating tendencies”!

Rom 7:25

I thank YaHuWaH, through YaHuWShuWaH HaMaSHiYaCH our

ALuaHiYM. So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of YaHuWaH;

but with the flesh the law of sin.

What was accomplished? The severance from the penalty in the Torah

for what our natural inclinations still tend toward. Serve: or submit to,

yield obediently to.

We must walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Ruwach.

Rom 8:2

For the law of the Ruwach of life, in YaHuWShuWaH HaMaSHiYaCH, hath

made me free from the law of sin and death.

Only the approach changes, as the law of aerodynamics prevails over,

but does not cancel, the law of gravity. (Bedell) We are empowered to

rise above our evil inclination while still living in a body subject to its

influence. (v. 11) Justice having been satisfied, we can again see

YaHuWaH's commands as an expression of His desire that life be the

best it can be in a fallen world, rather than something that condemns us.

They are solid ground to land on; their "teeth" are removed and they

become mainly instructive--our friends--once we are free from fear in

regard to whether we have observed them well enough.

A Ruwachual Torah for the Ruwachual man

That the righteousness of the law (Torah) may be fulfilled in us, who

walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Ruwach.

Because the carnal mind is enmity against YaHuWaH: for it is not subject

to the law of YaHuWaH, neither indeed can be.

Rom_6:6

But know this, that this old man is crucified with him, that the body of

sin may be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

Our old man: or humanity--the nature inherited from Adamah, with its

corrupted traits; the underlying “sin” that only results in “sins”, the

particular instances. Contrast with the “new man” of Eph. 2:15; 4:24;

Col. 3:10. Cease to operate as: or, that the body of sin might be

deprived of its effectiveness by disuse; Aramaic, be annulled. This is an

indirect answer to the charge that the Torah was being “done away

with”—the same word used in 3:31. This connection explains his logic in

the next two chapters that it is we, not the Torah, that are done away

with. Doing away with the sins is not enough; the sinner must be

executed, so the motivating factor itself changes, not just the actions,

though by the same token, the actions must change or there is no

evidence that the

Mat_18:21

Then came Kepha to him, and said, Master, how often shall my brother

sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

Mat 18:22

Jesus saith to him, I say not to thee, until seven times: but, until

seventy times seven.

By that right I have no right to ask for forgiveness that in me is all that is

wrong, tears are the sadness of a forlorn soul,

Mat 18:23

Therefore the Reign of YaHuWaH is like a certain king, who wanted to

reconcile accounts with his servants. When he had begun to reconcile,

one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. But

because he couldn’t pay, his sovereign commanded him to be sold, with

his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. The

servant therefore fell down and kneeled before him, saying, ‘My Master,

have patience with me, and I shall repay you all!’ The sovereign of that

servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and released him

from the loan. “But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow

servants, who owed him one hundred denarii, and he grabbed him, and

took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’ “So his fellow

servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience

with me, and I shall repay you!’ He would not, but went and cast him

into prison, until he should pay back that which was due. So when his

fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and

came and told to their sovereign all that was done. Then his sovereign

called him in, and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I released you all

that debt, because you begged me. Shouldn’t you also have had mercy

on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?’ His sovereign was

angry, and delivered him to the tormentors, until he should pay all that

was due to him. So My shamayim Father shall also do to you, if you

don’t each release your brother from your hearts for his misdeeds.”

If you acknowledge that He is righteous, you know that everyone who

practices righteousness is born of Him.

Even so, let your light shine before men; that they may see your good

works, and praise your Father Who is in the shamayim.

Our works are the light that points others to Him.

Eph. 2:8-10

YaHuWaH saved you by His special favor when you believed. And you

can't take credit for this (belief); it is a gift from YaHuWaH. Deliverance

is not a reward for the good things we have done [works], so none of us

can boast about it.For we are YaHuWaH's workmanship/achievement. He

has created us anew in haMashiyach YaHuWSHuWaH, so that we can do

the good things He planned for us long ago.

Workmanship: the same word from which we derive the English word

“poem”. Founded: created, made habitable, or [completely] transformed.

With all the attention verses 8 and 9 have received, this verse that

immediately follows them puts it all into the right perspective, because

the fact that our own accomplishments (misguided as they had to be

because of our position as described earlier in the chapter) are not what

brought us into favor with YHWH does not mean we should not be

involved in noble works; on the contrary, noble works are by its very

nature what the Torah is made up of, and it is our guide. But the footing

He has put us on is much firmer, and if we follow the works that He

ordained long ago rather than what we imagined might be what He

would want, the result will be much greater effectiveness, no longer

missing the target but actually pleasing Him.

And our works must be based on the Torah:

Matt 5:17

Don’t think that I have come to loosen [unravel/misinterpret] the Torah

or the Neb'im. I didn’t come to loosen [unravel], but to fulfill [give the

correct interpretation - to bring them out in fulness].

I have come: a Hebrew idiom for “my purpose is”. To give them their

fullest meaning: as seen by the rest of this discourse, where He expands

on the common interpretations of His day to get to the heart of the

matter. "Fulfill" (or complete) was also a technical term used by rabbis to

describe a correct interpretation, which "established" it. He reveals what

YaHuWaH really intended by the commandments by setting forth specific

cases a common rabbinic method. In MattithYahuw He reiterates, alludes

to, and/or amplifies on every one of the ten commandments.

Matt 5:18

For most certainly, I tell you, until shamayim and earth pass away, [2

Kepha 3:11-12] not even one Yodh (י) or accent mark (taga) shall in any

way pass away from the Torah, until everything happens. [Debarim

30:11-20; Yasha 40: 12-25]

Yodh: the smallest Hebrew letter, but it is by no means insignificant.

Taga: a diacritic notation over some letters to add nuances of intonation.

Du Tillet Heb., one hook. Peshitta Aramaic, stroke. Shem-Tob Heb., not

one letter or dot...because all will be fulfilled. He has guaranteed that

they will come to pass, but not all have yet come to fulfillment yet.

matt 5:19

Whoever, therefore, shall loosen one of these least commandments, and

teach others to do so, shall be called least in the Reign of YaHuWaH; but

whoever shall do and teach them shall be called great in the Reign of

YaHuWaH.

Teachers of others incur the stricter judgment. (Yaaqov/James 3:1)

Compare Deuteronomy 4:2.

The light that shines from us is in keeping his commandments

Matt 5:20

For I tell you that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes

and P'rushim, there is no way you shall enter into the reign of

shamayim!

LET NOT LAWLESSNESS BE PART OF YOUR LIFE

Beyond the Prushim: A shocking statement, because to most they

appeared to be the epitome of righteousness in their day. But He called

them lawless at heart

Matt 23:28

Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inwardly you

are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

Though they claimed to be keeping the Torah better than anyone

around them. You have to do better than they, He says. Their

interpretation is on faulty footing.

Matt 7:26-27

Everyone who hears these Words of mine, and does not do them shall

be like a heedless man, who built his house on the sand. The rain came

down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house;

and it fell—and great was its fall.”

He is setting the Torah back on its original foundation. Shem-Tob:

greater than the Prushim and the sages.

He who guards the command guards his life, He who despises His ways

dies

This is an unchanging and central message throughout Scripture:

Obedience to His commands (His voice) leads to life – disobedience

leads to death!

compassion [on them], and touched their eyes: and immediately their
