Hebrews 12:18-29 – The choice to be shaken to Yahweh or not to be shaken to Him

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[18] You have not come to something that can be touched, a blazing fire, and darkness, and gloom, and a tempest, [19] and the sound of a trumpet, and a voice whose words made the hearers beg that not another word be spoken to them. [20] (For they could not endure the order that was given, “If even an animal touches the mountain, it shall be stoned to death.” [21] Indeed, so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, “I tremble with fear.”) [22] But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering, [23] and to the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, [24] and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.

[25] See that you do not refuse the one who is speaking; for if they did not escape when they refused the one who warned them on earth, how much less will we escape if we reject the one who warns from heaven! [26] At that time his voice shook the earth; but now he has promised, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heaven.” [27] This phrase, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of what is shaken– that is, created things– so that what cannot be shaken may remain. [28] Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us give thanks, by which we offer to God an acceptable worship with reverence and awe; [29] for indeed our God is a consuming fire.

This is very deep and cannot be fathomed by ears hearing these verse read aloud (especially a poor translation). Understanding the truth is more than a Big Brain can comprehend. There can be no ‘speed readings’ for understanding. The depth of Paul’s words in his epistles is more than an Episcopal twelve-minute sermon could ever begin to explain. Therefore, I am breaking this reading down by the verses, listing the Greek translation of Paul’s original (and lost) Hebrew (the Greek divinely led to accurately project the Hebrew), a viable English translation that explains capitalized words and proper name usage and a synopsis of what each verse says. This is what a bridesmaid to Yahweh will do during one’s ‘engagement period.’ Anything less means the light of truth will never shine through one’s ‘oil lamp face.’ So, when Yahweh comes at an unplanned hour, those who yawned through a hired hand’s oration and always left Paul’s letters to the scholars, do not be surprised when one finds his or her soul left behind. Those souls are the point of this lesson, where those who are not shaken with fear of God will make such mistakes that lead their souls to ruin.

Verse 18: “Ou gar proselēlythate psēlaphōmenō kai kekaumenō pyri , kai gnophō , kai zophō , kai thyellē ,”

Translation: “Not indeed you have come to being touched kai to having been ignited to fire , kai to a thick cloud , kai to gloom , kai to whirlwind ,”

This says those souls saved by divine marriage to Yahweh’s Spirit and the resurrection within each of their souls by the soul of Jesus has been because those souls feared “being set on fire,” by being kept in “darkness” with a “thick cloud” of doubt over their eyes, nor by “gloom” or the dizziness of a “storm” or “whirlwind.” The capitalized “Ou” brings a divine level of meaning to the negative, as what “Not” made souls “feel” the presence of Yahweh within their souls. The willingly “came to” the altar of marriage out of love. Being “touched” is the difference between beliefs and true faith.

Verse 19: “kai salpingos ēchō , kai phōnē rhēmatōn , hēs hoi akousantes parētēsanto , mē prostethēnai autois logon ,”

Translation: “kai of trumpet to sound , kai to a language of commands , which those having comprehended they rejected , not to be placed to their souls divine utterance ,”

This says importantly that a loud and clear voice came to alert those saved souls. Also important to grasp is the “trumpet sound” comes from Scripture, as a Spiritual voice giving “commands” to follow, all coming from the unspoken Word. This was the power of Gideon and the walls of Jericho, where the “sound” is not physical, but divinely Spiritual. No defense can withstand the vibratory power of the truth. Still, those soul unsaved will “reject” the Word and refuse to follow the “commands. Those unsaved soul will “not be placed” in a state of divine marriage, where their souls can hear the Word of Yahweh spoken to them.

Verse 20: “ouk epheron gar to diastellomenon : Kan thērion thigē tou orous , lithobolēthēsetai .”

Translation: “not they could make publicly known indeed this being distinguished : Even if a wild beast might harm them of this mountain , it will be killed by stoning .”

This speaks of those “not” capable of their “souls” understanding “divine utterances.” This says they “not” will be capable of “public orations” that are “distinguished,” such as those made by high priests on special feast days. The capitalized Greek word “Kan” is then divinely elevated to be a statement of possibility, where an “if” scenario is relative to being “Even” with Yahweh in understanding Scripture. They would still be nothing more than “wild beasts,” who would make natural sounds (bellows and howls), which “might” do them “harm,” “if” they are attempting to promote their souls as in possession “of this mountain” that is knowledge of Scripture, equal to Yahweh’s. Those who speak the truth without knowing the intent and meaning of the truth would make them guilty of high crimes, therefore liable to “be killed by stoning,” for having broken a serious Law.

Verse 21: “kai houtō phoberon ēn to phantazomenon Mōusēs eipen , Ekphobos eimi , kai entromos .”

Translation: “kai in this way fearful he existed this making visible Moses said , Greatly terrified I exist , kai trembling with fear .”

In Exodus 20:18-21 is told what happened after Moses came down from the mountain and read the Ten Commandments to the people. Everyone witnessed thundering, lightning flashes, trumpets sounding and smoke coming off the mountain. The people were afraid that Yahweh was going to kill them all. Moses explained that it was a test of the people to fear “the elohim” (“hā·’ĕ·lō·hîm”), which is their inner Lord who speaks for Yahweh to their souls. Verse twenty-one says, Moses entered the thick darkness which there his elohim (“hā·’ĕ·lō·hîm”). Thus, the meaning here repeats that story from Exodus, where Yahweh made his presence be presented in a “way fearful” to those who were His betrothed bridesmaids (in both male and female bodies of flesh). Those who would speak “Even if a wild beast,” as one without fear of Yahweh or his inner elohim, would not know the fear of Yahweh that saves their souls. The importance of “trembling with fear” has nothing to do with Moses, but to all who would never speak the meaning of Scripture without being completely led by Yahweh’s Son to speak the truth, totally afraid to speak for Yahweh otherwise.

Verse 22: “Alla proselēlythate Siōn orei , kai polei Theou zōntos , Ierousalēm epouraniō , kai myraisin angelōn ,”

Translation: “Otherwise you have come to Zion to hill , kai to city of God of living , Jerusalem to spiritual , kai to tens of thousands of angels ,”

The capitalized Greek word “Alla” must be read as divinely elevated in meaning, so it reaches a level of Yahweh. Since the word means “otherwise, on the other hand, but,” implying in usage “except” and “however,” this is stating a divine “exception” to those who “tremble with fear,” while thinking some are godlike and others should fear them. The largest portion of such “have come to Zion,” which is a name that means “Dry Place.” They have found a “mountain” or “hill” that is where they become devoid of emotion for Yahweh. This place is importantly a “city,” which is a large gathering of people [in Roman domination times, not all Jews], with the “city” seen as a reflection “of God,” as if “God possessed the city” as His own place on earth to “live.” This then implies that the Jews in that “city of God” are promised eternal “life,” because they maintain a house for “God.” The name “Jerusalem” means “Teaching Peace,” but this is misunderstood as teaching calm and serenity to those who are pained by a lack of “spiritual” insight being taught. The true meaning of “Peace” is “Wholeness,” where the leaders of the Temple should be “Teaching Wholeness” towards “spiritual” security of souls. As to the “myriads of messengers,” this says many have risen to power in Jerusalem, bringing a message that allows a select group comforts in the material realm, but none of them have been led by an inner “angel” possessing their souls. Those prophets who are the truth of “tens of thousands of angels” in David’s “city” were killed by the apathy the people preferred as their message.

Verse 23: “panēgyrei , kai ekklēsia prōtotokōn apogegrammenōn en ouranois , kai Kritē Theō pantōn , kai pneumasi dikaiōn teteleiōmenōn ,”

Translation: “to the festal assembly , kai to the (religious) congregation of those first-born of those enrolling within spiritually , kai to Judge to God of all , kai to spirits of innocents having been brought to completion ,”

This takes the “spirituality of Jerusalem,” where “tens of thousands messengers” come to spread their words and presents those in two groups. The first are the leaders of the Temple, who pander to the needs of pilgrims three times (and more) each year, during “festival assemblies.” More importantly, the true “angels” coming to Jerusalem are those in “congregation” or “assembly” who are those souls having received the soul of the “first-born” of Yahweh – Adam (a.k.a. Jesus). Those are who “enroll” or are listed by Yahweh as having His Son’s soul “within” each of theirs, where the “heavenly” is no longer external, but inward born. This is importantly identifying the Son as “the Judge” over an individual’s soul-body, as its Lord, who the “Judges” as the extension of Yahweh “within.” This “Judge” is then identified as the possession (Genitive case) “of God.” That makes the “Judge” the Good Shepherd “to all” of Yahweh’s flock. This is a marriage or union of “spirits” – souls-angels-heavenly messengers – where the “innocents” are those whose sins have been forgiven and their souls have become like unblemished lambs. Their souls were incomplete prior to divine marriage and resurrection of the Son’s soul “within,” but with the presence of that Son’s soul their souls have found “wholeness.”

Verse 24: “kai diathēkēs neas mesitē , Iēsou , kai hiamati rhantismou kreitton lalounti para ton Habel .”

Translation: “kai of a covenant of new to mediator , Jesus , kai to blood of purification more excellent to say alongside of this Abel .”

As a continuation of “spirits of innocents having been brought to completion,” Paul importantly stated here that this “wholeness” is due to a divine possession in one’s “spirit” or “soul,” where the Law is written on one’s inner soul (walls of the heart). This “covenant” is that of Yahweh, but it is “mediated” by a “new” or “fresh” spirit-soul. This is then name “Jesus,” which means “Yah Saves.” To see a soul as the ‘life blood’ of a body of flesh, to be joined by a “new” soul that is the Son of Yahweh resurrected within one’s soul, that “new” souls becomes the “blood of purification more excellent” than a soul alone in its flesh, trying to please Yahweh. This “purification” is the “blood” of the Lamb being spilled upon one’s soul, in the same way Yahweh pours out His Spirit in the Baptism of each of His wife-souls. The soul of “Jesus” is then the “blood” that covers the doorframe that is one’s soul-body, marking it to be spared death. The name “Abel” is known to be the son of Adam; but that name means “breath,” which means unseen and “vainly” stated. This is how one’s own soul becomes, “alongside of this Abel,” when the soul of “Jesus” becomes one’s Lord. One’s soul is simply the “breath” of life, killed by the world, but revived by Yahweh sending His Son to save a soul.

Verse 25: “Blepete mē paraitēsēsthe ton lalounta . ei gar ekeinoi ouk exephygon , epi gēs paraitēsamenoi ton chrēmatizonta , poly mallon hēmeis hoi ton ap’ ouranōn apostrephomenoi ,”

Translation: “Perceive not you all could have rejected this speaking . if indeed those others not they fled , upon earth them having rejected this receiving of a name , many more our souls these this away from of spiritual heavens turning away from ,”

Here, Paul’s Hebrew is represented as beginning with a capitalized Greek “Blepete,” which is a divinely elevated projection of a word that means “to look (at),” implying in usage “see, perceive, discern.” On a level of Yahweh, this is greater than physical vision, as a statement of spiritual knowledge “Perceived.” Relative to Paul have presented two classification of people (Jews), this divine insight is “not” without seekers of the truth, who are souls yearning to return to Yahweh and be “whole” again. Thus, there are those souls who do “not reject” Yahweh in divine union and receive this divine soul of Jesus who comes “speaking” the truth. This then presents a conditional scenario, where Paul said “if indeed those others not they fled.” These become the seekers of truth, who need ministers in the name of Jesus to find them an speak the truth to their souls. When we read “upon the earth,” the use of “earth” can be seen as metaphor for “flesh,” as it is made of matter from the world. Those who “reject” marriage to Yahweh’s Spirit become those to whom the ministers must speak loudest, letting them know their words are false. They do not have the “name” of Yahweh, nor His Son to justify their speech. Without these ministers in the name of Jesus seeking those desiring the truth, the false shepherds will turn many more away from Yahweh, leading them to forever become lost.

Verse 26: “hou hē phōnē tēn gēn esaleusen tote ; nyn de epēngeltai , legōn , Eti hapax egō seisō ou monon tēn gēn , alla kai ton ouranon .”

Translation: “of who this voice this earth he disturbed the mind at that time ; the present now he has promised , saying , Even now once for all I will shake not merely the earth , on the other hand kai this spiritual heavens .”

As a continuation on the theme of “many more souls … away from of spiritual heavens turning away from,” Paul’s Hebrew is repeated through the Greek word “ouranon,” which needs to be grasped as Paul referring to souls and Yahweh’s Spirit. Those two are “heavens” that are “spiritual,” not physical. In this same way, “reference to “the earth” should be seen as metaphor for “the flesh.” When that is understood, this verse places focus on the failures of everyone led out of Egypt by Moses not teaching (speaking the truth of Law) to their children, so there was a routinely regular breakage of commitment to Yahweh (on come the Judges to save the day). Those who committed to Yahweh who heard His booming thunder, lightning and smoke on the mountain trembled with fear and bowed down before Yahweh. That was only their “flesh” (“the earth”) hearing the voice of Yahweh. The “promise now” (in Paul’s time and forevermore) of the ‘Promised Land’ is it is not property on “the earth” but a commitment by the “flesh,” which also demands a commitment (sacrifice of self unto Yahweh) of the soul (“the spiritual heavens”). The importance that must be read into that is the soul is primarily the commitment Yahweh seeks. Therefore, He sends His Son’s soul to become the Lord over both “the earth and the spiritual heavens” (the body and soul).

Verse 27: “to de , Eti hapax , dēloi tēn tōn saleuomenōn metathesin , hōs pepoiēmenōn , hina meinē to mē saleuomena .”

Translation: “this now , Still once for all , it makes clear this of this of those being shaken transformation , like as of making , in order that it could have awaited those not being shaken .”

Paul here references his letter written in Hebrew (from a prison in Rome), such that “this” letter “now” says both the physical and the spiritual have been shaken in his body and soul, as well as all true Christians who have married their souls to Yahweh and been reborn spiritually as His Son. When Paul’s Hebrew is again represented by the capitalized Greek word “Eti,” which means “Even now,” while also “Yet, Still” and also “Further, In addition,” the implied capitalization here again raises this word’s meaning to a divine level of intent, where “Still” says Yahweh is consistent in all his divine marriages throughout the ages. So, there is nothing new, other than the awareness that the Son of Yahweh is the soul of the man known as Jesus. This “Addition” is “once for all,” as there is no divorcing Yahweh once divinely wed and His Son becomes one’s Lord. All souls that have been “shaken” by their finding the truth and desiring an eternal commitment between their souls and Yahweh’s Spirit will personally experience faith in Yahweh and faith in Jesus, from that entrance into their souls totally “transforming” them from what they were into what they have become. It is “like as making” a new soul-body, one which had a given name, but knows it is le by Jesus into righteousness. This is the ministry of a Saint, which comes “in order that it could have awaited those (souls) not being shaken” “Yet.”

Verse 28: “Dio basileian asaleuton paralambanontes , echōmen charin , di’ hēs latreuōmen euarestōs tō Theō , meta eulabeias kai deous .”

Translation: “Therefore sovereignty unmoved receiving , we may possess kindness , because of of who we may serve in a well-pleasing way this to God , in company with fear of God kai fear-driven .”

Here, Paul’s Hebrew is represented in Greek by the capitalized “Dio,” which reflects a divinely elevated statement of two directions being expressed: the first is those shaken to marry Yahweh and those not. “Therefore” is then stating the after direction, when looking forward places focus on those souls saved. Those souls have “received” the Spirit, which is the “sovereignty” of Yahweh, with that presence “unmoved” once “received.” This onset of Spirit is a soul’s divine Baptism, which purifies it from all past sins, so “we may possess kindness.” In that, the “possession” is one’s soul being taken in divine union by Yahweh, as His wife-soul. This possession (the Genitive case Greek representation of the Hebrew stating “of who”) is a “cause and effect” of proving one’s desires to receive His Spirit, so “we may serve Him in a well-pleasing way.” This is a reflection of the times Yahweh spoke (not to Jesus, but those surrounding him), “This is my Son in whom I am well pleased.” Yahweh says that to all souls who are where His Son’s soul is resurrected, after having received His Spirit. All souls who have so become Sons of man as Adam-Jesus reborn go forth with two souls joined in one body, “in company with” each together, where the soul of Jesus is one’s Lord. These Saints walk with a “fear of God,” which they preach to others who are seekers. Their message importantly says all souls must be “fear-driven” to seek Yahweh, sincerely expressing repentance, fearing only Yahweh, not their bodies of flesh which are leading them away from salvation.

Verse 29: “kai gar ho Theos hēmōn pyr katanaliskon .”

Translation: “kai indeed this God of our souls eternal fire consuming .”

This importantly sums up the element of salvation, where wholeness is confirmed. All souls born into flesh come from God, because Yahweh is “this God of our souls.” To marry one’s soul in a loving bond of most Holy Matrimony and give rebirth to His Son’s soul in the flesh, says a “soul of God” is once again a “soul possessed by God,” having come full circle. This marriage is not benign, as an arranged marriage (born of a bloodline said to be God’s children), as it can only come from an “eternal fire” being kindled within one’s soul, so love burns for Yahweh. Proving that desire allows one’s soul to be set on “fire” with Yahweh’s love, which is His Son’s soul. The inner presence of Yahweh’s Spirit and the maintenance of that purity by the soul of Jesus resurrected will keep the soul “consuming” spiritual food and forever “burning” with a desire to serve Yahweh as His subject, servant and wife-soul.

Luke 13:10-17 – Understanding the Sabbath and the work that entails

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[10] Now Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath. [11] And just then there appeared a woman with a spirit that had crippled her for eighteen years. She was bent over and was quite unable to stand up straight. [12] When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said, “Woman, you are set free from your ailment.” [13] When he laid his hands on her, immediately she stood up straight and began praising God. [14] But the leader of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had cured on the sabbath, kept saying to the crowd, “There are six days on which work ought to be done; come on those days and be cured, and not on the sabbath day.” [15] But the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites! Does not each of you on the sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the manger, and lead it away to give it water? [16] And ought not this woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan bound for eighteen long years, be set free from this bondage on the sabbath day?” [17] When he said this, all his opponents were put to shame; and the entire crowd was rejoicing at all the wonderful things that he was doing.

——————–

There are two important points that must be grasped from this reading. First, when we read “Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath,” this does not mean that Jesus was the invited guest speaker in “one of the synagogues.” While Luke is the divine remembrances of Mother Mary and less restricted to a chronological order than the other three Gospels [she recalled experiences of Jesus that divinely came back to her memory, when loosely following the chronology of Jesus’ ministry], by this time in the life of Jesus he had been delegated to attendee, not asked to read any Scripture, nor explain anything. Jesus had created his own ‘synagogue’ [the ‘church’ of Jesus on the hillside by the sea, held on Sundays, after a Sabbath], where large gatherings came to hear Jesus explain the truth of the Word, which was not to be heard in any synagogue. So, “Jesus teaching in” actually says Jesus’ presence in any synagogue was to “teach” souls seeking salvation; and, the “woman with a spirit that had crippled her for eighteen years” was one such soul found, which Mother Mary recalled.

The second point of focus that must be grasped has to deal with the truth of the Sabbath. While this remembrance of Jesus’ mother recalled a time when she personally witnessed Jesus being attacked for healing on a Saturday – the seventh day of a week – and it is only told in Luke’s Gospel, there are other accounts of Jesus healing on a Sabbath, where the Pharisees and leaders of the Temple took great offense to this ‘work,’ which none of them could do on any of the other six days of a week. This means Jesus defines that Sabbath, which is not a definition accepted today, in the same way it was rejected when Jesus kicked up the dust of the earth as a living man in Judea and Galilee (et al).

In verse ten, the Greek of Luke states: “Ēn de didaskōn en mia tōn synagōgōn en tois sabbasin,” which literally translates to say, “He existed now teaching within one of this of assemblies within to these sabbaths.” When one takes a deep breath and lets one’s eyes relax to see the multiplicity of what this says (it can be read like the NRSV translates above, but …), it can equally say that Yahweh was now teaching within,” where the capitalization of “Ēn” (third-person singular Imperfect Indicative Active form of “eimi,” meaning “I am, exist”) raises this to a Yahweh level of meaning. Because Jesus said, “I speak for the Father because the Father is in me,” This says “Yahweh now was teaching.” The Greek word “en” means “within,” which becomes a statement that should be read as spiritual or soul-related, such that Yahweh does not stand on a podium and orate from a scroll. When this is seen, the “one” is less about the individuality of a building determined to be a “synagogue,” so it becomes “one” who is of the “gathered assembly” of souls in human flesh. Since Yahweh was teaching to souls within, one with a soul that gathered on a sabbath becomes the private “teaching” Jesus became the minister of his Father’s “teaching.”

When the verse ends by repeating “en,” and attaching that spirituality to “these sabbaths” (plural number), this becomes a statement that the “teaching” of “one of the assembled peoples” (plural number) was relative to the souls of all gathered being because “these” took the time to meet in one specific place one day a week. The day they always gathered was the “sabbaths.” This is important to grasp when the second focus of this lesson has leaders complaining about doing healing work on one of “these sabbaths.” It says the souls of Jews were greatly depleted of spiritual nourishment, because they only came to be fed (like the beasts they possessed on their farms) one day a week. The beasts need daily food to stay healthy; but the Jews ate, drank and were merry six days, while forcing themselves to fasting or ‘leftover cold cuts’ on Saturday. Beasts do not have brains that can conceive one day from any other. They only know, “Feed me daily;” and, that is important to see to understand this lesson.

In verse eleven, where we are told of a “woman” in the “gathered assembly” (the meaning of “sunagógé”), the Greek word written is in the lower case, as “gynē.” This is important to grasp when Jesus called out to her, where Luke capitalized the Greek word in verse twelve, as “Gynai.” This lower case word translates equally as “a woman,” with implication in usage being “wife, my lady.” The capitalization then is an indication of divine elevation in meaning, placing this word on the level of Yahweh. This means Jesus used one word, which (in Aramaic as well) has the same multiplicity of meaning, where Jewish ears heard (as Christian eyes read) “Woman,” when the reality is it says, “Wife.” At that instant, she was not simply a devotee to Yahweh, her time serving him as a “cripple,” where that demon “spirit” made he life miserable, but she never gave up her love and desire for Yahweh, that Jesus married her soul to Yahweh’s Spirit, calling her a divine “Wife.”

Here, it is vital to read the Greek of Luke that says in verse twelve, “idōn autēn , ho Iēsous prosephōnēsen kai eipen autē,” which literally can translate as saying: “having attended to now her soul , this Jesus he summoned kai he commanded to her soul”. Keeping in mind that the name “Jesus” means “YAH Saves” and Jesus spoke only what his Father told him to speak, it was the Son of Yahweh knowing the soul of this “woman” and all that she had withstood, without once blaming Yahweh for her misery. Thus, Yahweh summoned His Son “Jesus” to pronounce the marriage of that soul, which importantly exclaimed, “[you are My] Wife.” This then made the demon spirit that tormented her body of flesh for eighteen years immediately go away, leading the soul of the “Wife” to immediately begin “honoring” Yahweh with praise.

Now, the aspect of the leader of the “gathered assembly” saw Jesus “lay hands to her,” which was seen as some chiropractic spine snap manipulation by “hands,” which (then as it still is today) is an act of work that demands payment for services rendered. In reality, verse thirteen states this in Greek: “kai epethēken autē tas cheiras ,” which can literally say, “importantly he gave in addition to her soul these hands”. The symbolism of “hands” is less about Jesus touching the woman physically, and more about Jesus presenting the marriage gift of “the instruments a person uses to accomplish their purpose (intention, plan).” (HELPS Word-studies figurative intent of “xeír,” the root for “cheiras”) The “addition” given was his soul – the Son of Yahweh [Adam-Jesus], which is a flexibility Yahweh has, as He created His Son as a Yahweh elohim to save many souls at once. With the soul of Jesus added to the soul of the “Wife”-soul of Yahweh, after Yahweh had made her soul a Christ through His divine Anointment of His Spirit, “those hands were placed upon her soul,” to forever reward her devotion and self-sacrifice as worthy of eternal life.

To then sum up the rest of this lesson, where the leader of the gathered assembly begins to accuse Jesus of doing work on the Sabbath, the point made by Jesus is made in verse fifteen, where Luke wrote in Greek, “Apekrithē de autō ho Kyrios kai epien , Hypokritai !” This translates literally in English to say, “He answered now to his soul this Lord kai he said , Hypocrites !” Here, the capitalized third-person singular Aorist Indicative form of “apokrinomai” is Yahweh speaking through the Son’s mouth. Yahweh spoke to the “leader of the gathered assembly,” who had spoken to Jesus as a representative of all the leaders of the Temple in Jerusalem, who decreed working on the Sabbath was heretical. For Yahweh’s voice to come out clearly to that one leader, calling him the front man for all like him – “Hypocrites” – that says the work done on the Sabbath by a priest of Yahweh should and must be HEALING the poor of spirit. To call Jesus out as bad, for doing what he should have routinely done (but never once did … any day of the week) says he had just bad-mouthed Yahweh … his Spiritual boss … who sent a messenger-spirit-angel into that specific “gathering of an assembly” not only to do the true work of Yahweh but also to slap the false pretense out of the face of a hired hand – false shepherd.

It is vital to see that the same ignorance goes on today in all forms of “gathered assemblies” that are souls seeking redemption for their demon-caused sins and salvation taught to them by their leaders. For “Six” days [a capitalized “Hex,” which is a divine elevation of the day man was created (males and females) and given dominion over all the other beasts of the sixth day. The capitalization of “Six” says mankind is nothing more than an animal with a Bigger Brain; and, that Big Brain allows it to be the manager of domesticated beasts. Therefore, when the normal Jews are seeking the same care that a domesticated livestock demands – seven days a week – the leaders of the gathered assemblies do no work Sunday through Friday; and, when the Sabbath rolls around, they do more nothing, because they think (a Big Brain failure) they cannot work on the Sabbath.

When this reading is understood by seeing the seventh day of Creation was when Yahweh demanded a day of rest be recognized, it is total ignorance to the fact that the first six days of creation had nothing to do with twenty-four hour periods of time in a seven-day week. The first six days to hundreds of billions of years to complete (as Carl Sagan would say: Beeeel-yuns). The seventh day (thus the Sabbath) has been every day since that pronouncement by Yahweh. Every day is the Sabbath. All souls are expected to serve Yahweh as His “Wife”-souls twenty-four-seven. It is a lifestyle, not a two hours one day a week where one feels forced to comply with ritual.

When Jesus said of the “woman,” should be seen as “a daughter of Abram,” that means her soul is one of those points of light in the darkness that is the lineage of Saints – those souls who serve Yahweh and do what He says do, no matter what aches and pains the body suffers. That “woman” is a reflection of every human being on earth, because all souls trapped in a body of flesh (where demons love to come in and lead souls away from Yahweh) are of feminine essence. All souls in the flesh are called to be “Wives” of Yahweh. To reach that blissful day of wedding (this woman had to suffer eighteen years), one keeps the oil of truth lighting one’s self-lamp; so, one is able to be enlightened to Yahweh’s presence and patience of devotion (a wifely duty) is proved. We are all called today to do the same as that “woman” did, until the time when Jesus comes spiritually (in the body of someone looking nothing like his color book pictures) to officiate that divine union, where “hands are placed upon one’s soul,” making them become reborn as Jesus, the Son of Yahweh.

Jeremiah 2:4-13 – The Spiritual divorce decree

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[4] Hear the word of Yahweh, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel.

[5] Thus says Yahweh: What wrong did your ancestors find in me that they went far from me, and went after worthless things, and became worthless themselves?

[6] They did not say, “Where is Yahweh who brought us up from the land of Egypt, who led us in the wilderness, in a land of deserts and pits, in a land of drought and deep darkness, in a land that no one passes through, where no one lives?”

[7] I brought you into a plentiful land to eat its fruits and its good things. But when you entered you defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.

[8] The priests did not say, “Where is Yahweh?”

Those who handle the law did not know me; the rulers transgressed against me; the prophets prophesied by Baal, and went after things that do not profit.

[9] Therefore once more I accuse you, says Yahweh, and I accuse your children’s children.

[10] Cross to the coasts of Cyprus and look, send to Kedar and examine with care; see if there has ever been such a thing.

[11] Has a nation changed elohim, even though they are no elohim? But my people have changed their glory for something that does not profit.

[12] Be appalled, O heavens, at this, be shocked, be utterly desolate, says Yahweh,

[13] for my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living water, and dug out cisterns for themselves, cracked cisterns that can hold no water.

——————–

Not read today is verse two, which includes the words that translate to say, “the love of your betrothal, when you followed me into the wilderness”. This spoke of the “youth” of the children of Jacob, who had become true children of “Israel,” due to the love in their hearts and souls that led them to be married spiritually to Yahweh. This is Yahweh singing through His prophet Jeremiah about how that marriage has turned sour, due to the neglect of the children of that most divine union not following the ways of their prior descendants. This reading selection is, therefore, a divorce decree; and, it should be read as such, with all in history (including now) who parade around saying, “I am a child of God,” when they do nothing directed by Yahweh or His Law (the marriage Covenant). There is no marriage, nor any protection by Yahweh’s Spirit.

In verse four there are two proper names: Jacob and Israel. These should be read as the meaning behind the names, where “Jacob” means “Supplanter” and “Israel” means “Who Retains an el” of Yahweh – the soul of the Son. When this meaning is translated, the verse says, “hear word of Yahweh human supplanters ; and all the clans of human who retain the el of Yahweh .” The key word in this sequence is ”hear.” For all “who retain the el” of Yahweh, they will be prophets like Jeremiah (a name that can mean “Elevated Of Yah”) and be in direct communication with the God they profess to serve. If they depend of a select few to tell them what Yahweh wants (none of those being true prophets of Yahweh, but false shepherds and hired hands), then they cannot “hear the voice of Yahweh.” Those who maintain a marriage with Yahweh’s Spirit will know the meaning of the Law by hearing what to do Spiritually; and, they will do what Yahweh tells them (not what someone human says, attempting to “supplant” Yahweh as their lord.

In verse five, the key Hebrew word is “ha·he·ḇel,” which the NRSV has translated above as “worthless things.” The root word “habel” means “breath, vapor,” where the “worthless things” are reflective of “emptiness, futility, idols, uselessness, vanities and/or worthlessness.” This becomes the souls of those who are not divinely wed to Yahweh, in receipt of His Spirit and the resurrection of His Son’s soul within theirs; as a soul alone in a body of flesh becomes an “idol” of Yahweh, when it has connection whatsoever to the divine. Thus, to go “after worthless things idols, and became worthless vanities themselves” is the failures of the past, where Judge after Judge was sent to bring the wayward back onto the path of righteousness. When David became the answer to their prayer for a “king, to be like other nations,” no more Judges would be sent by Yahweh. Instead, He would send messengers (angelic prophets, like Jeremiah) to speak the Word of Yahweh to them. Nothing new would be said; as the Law never changes. Without the Law written on the walls of one’s heart (i.e.: in one’s soul by the presence of the Spirit and the Son), then one is always bound to find the failures of the past as the failures of the present.

In verse six is the proper name “Egypt,” which means “Married To Tragedy.” Seeing this, the verse says (viable translation into English), “Yahweh brought us up out of the flesh married to tragedy.” The “tragedy” all souls born into bodies of “flesh” (or “earth”) is death (being trapped within mortal bodies). To be “brought up out of” this “marriage to tragedy,” Yahweh offered those souls whose “love betrothed” them to Yahweh as His wives (bridesmaids proved worthy) the marriage to eternal life.

When the Hebrew word “eretz” – meaning “land, earth” – is read as metaphor for “flesh” – a soul breathed into a body of dust and clay – then the rest of verse six places focus on the “flesh of deserts, pits, droughts and the shadow of death.” That is the definition of a “marriage to tragedy.” When Jeremiah wrote “wə·lō- yā·šaḇ ’ā·ḏām šām,” the NRSV has translated this as “where no one lives,” the literal reality shows these words to say, “and none dwell Adam where.” The place where “Adam dwelt” was Eden, which is the spiritual realm of immortality, where only souls can live. Thus, the question posed is why would eternal souls trapped in bodies of dryness, sunk in the pit of the earthly realm (a body of flesh), and under the shadow of death ever seek to remain bound to repeat that future “life,” rather than choose to submit to Yahweh, receive his Son Adam’s soul and return to “dwell” eternally in Eden?

Verse seven then states the breaking of the marriage Covenant, which returns souls from the promise of eternal life, to the reality of a soul trapped in bodies in “the shadow of death.” The grounds for spiritual divorce are then said to be, “you defiled the flesh that was possessed by Yahweh in divine marriage. The “inheritance” of a promise for eternal life in Eden was turned into an “abomination.” One chose to serve self-ego rather than Yahweh, even while claiming His most Holy Name in marriage (as the children of Israel), when they spat upon that “possession” and yielded to the influences of the worldly realm and its governor Satan.

Verse eight then says the priests did not know Yahweh. Neither did the rulers over the people. The false prophets worshiped Baal and offered sacrifices of souls to a lesser god (a dead god, stripped of all power by Yahweh). Their false prophecies led the people to sin against Yahweh. This is spiritual adultery, punishable by death. Since all souls are eternal, a death sentence means the soul released from its flesh in death will be sent back into new flesh (a newborn, at some time in the future), to die again … and again … and again. This is the endless cycle of reincarnation, always ending in death.

In verse nine, Yahweh repeated through the true prophet Jeremiah, “I will bring charges.” The “charges” (from “’ā·rîḇ,” meaning “strive, contend”) are the grounds for divorce. When this is repeated as “against you” as also against “your children’s children,” this speaks of a permanent casting out of sinner souls forever. It will be their own souls condemned to death that will come back as their own “children” and then again as the “children’s children.” This is the permanence of the divorce “charges.”

In verse ten are the proper names “Cyprus” and “Kedar.” The word “Cyprus” means “Redeemed,” while the word “Kedar” reflects “Arabia,” as descendants of Ishmael. This becomes metaphor for the two types of souls in bodies of flesh. All have sinned, but only those of “Cyprus” have reached the coast of the sea of souls, to be replenished with everlasting waters. The opposite are those rejected as descendants of Abraham, sent into the wilderness to find eternal death in the dryness, pit, and shadow of death that is the worldly realm. This states the option is up to the individual soul. Yahweh invites all souls to submit to Him and serve Him as a wife-soul. However, some will be “redeemed,” but more will try to defile those true descendants of Abraham and be cast out.

In verse eleven Yahweh asked through Jeremiah about the inner “elohim” that possess the “people.” The NRSV has this ask, “Has a nation changed gods, even though they are no gods?” In posing that question that way, the NRSV recognizes the plural number of “elohim” and does not attempt to change it as a capitalized, singular “God.” The truth of the word “elohim” is it is an eternal spirit-soul-angel-demon that is not always the “Yahweh elohim” of Genesis 2 – the soul of Adam (a.k.a. Jesus). Thus, the repetition of “elohim” makes this question ask, “has changed people elohim . and they not gods ?” This asks how a “people” can reject an inner divine soul possession and decide to reject the Yahweh elohim that is the Son’s soul one with their souls, as their Lord, to instead accept a lesser elohim as their lord (a demon spirit possession)? The only way such a rejection could ever take place (sins divine possession last for eternity) is for the souls of the “people” to see themselves as “gods.” They then never submit to a divine union with Yahweh, choosing instead to be “gods” over their bodies of flesh; but that foolishness only leads those souls to be demonically possessed. Therefore, “it does not profit” any such souls.

Verse twelve then states of this loss of profit will be quite a shock, most especially when death and Judgment comes. The Hebrew word “shamayim” translates as “heavens,” but this should be read as metaphor for “spirits” or “souls.” It will then be those “souls astonished” by Judgment for their sins and rejecting marriage to Yahweh. They will find that Judgment to be quite “desolate” and a soul found full of “fears.” This is not the opinion of Jeremiah, but the truth stated by “Yahweh,” in Judgement.

Verse thirteen then sings that the divorced wives of Yahweh have committed two evils.” The first is they have “forsaken the fountain,” which is the everlasting waters that replenish the soul and keep it true to Yahweh as His servant. The ever-living waters” that flow from this “fountain” come from the soul of Jesus – the Son Adam resurrected, without end. The second evil is to have made themselves out to be “cisterns” that retain the “fountain” of eternal youth – the quest that Ponce de Leon sought when he landed a ship in Florida. To pretend to be a container of everlasting waters is the evil of lying. Those “cisterns are broken and cannot hold water” that gives everlasting life. Only the soul of Yahweh’s Son can be that cistern that joins with one’s soul to keep one’s soul from ever having to draw water from a well to stay alive. Eternal life is promised through divine marriage of a soul to Yahweh and being reborn as His Son, whose divine soul becomes one with a host soul, elevating it as its lord.

Psalm 81:1, 10-16 – Beware denying a marriage made in heaven

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

1 Sing with joy lelohim our strength *

and raise a loud shout to lelohe of Jacob.

—–

10 I am Yahweh eloheka, who brought you out of the land of Egypt and said, *

“Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.”

11 And yet my people did not hear my voice, *

and Israel would not obey me.

12 So I gave them over to the stubbornness of their hearts, *

to follow their own devices.

13 Oh, that my people would listen to me! *

that Israel would walk in my ways!

14 I should soon subdue their enemies *

and turn my hand against their foes.

15 Those who hate Yahweh would cringe before him, *

and their punishment would last forever.

16 But Israel would I feed with the finest wheat *

and satisfy him with honey from the rock.

——————–

This is a Psalm of Asaph, which means a song of the gatherer. David was the gatherer of souls, who taught them the way to truly be “Israel” was to each marry their own souls to Yahweh and each receive His Son’s soul – the Yahweh elohim that is the soul of Adam (a.k.a. Jesus). This understanding would be taught by David, as there could be no king of a nation of people that would physically lead everyone to salvation through swinging a sword and defeating their enemies in war. Each soul had to be possessed by Yahweh, as His wife-soul; and, each soul had to be joined with the Son’s soul, the “elohim” of which David taught in verse one. The “strength” of “Israel” was “our elohim” within our souls – each possessed by the Son’s soul, who acted as the Lord of each. The use of the name “Jacob,” which means “Supplanter,” says to sing loudly about the “elohim” that “Supplants” each individual soul as the lord of its flesh, becoming the Lord that leads each to victory.

As a companion psalm to the Track 1 Old Testament reading selection from Jeremiah 2, which sings loudly as a divorce decree, verse one in Psalm 81 should be seen as singing the praises of divine union with Yahweh. In return from that most holy marriage, the birth of Yahweh’s Son (the true and only purpose for marriage) – the resurrection of the soul of Adam-Jesus in each and every true Israelite – David was divinely inspired by his personal “elohim” to sing of what all souls like him knew to praise. With verse one being the celebration of that Holy Matrimony, we skip forward to verse ten and hear David singing of what was known to have gone wrong in the pasts of the people, which was not pure divorce but a rejection of marriage, refusing to surrender individual souls to Yahweh, choosing instead to serve self.

Verse ten begins with the Hebrew word “’ā·nō·ḵî,” followed by a vertical bar of pause (“׀”). Because the word “anoki” is the first-person common singular pronoun meaning “I,” this must be read as Yahweh speaking as the owner and possessor of all who claim Him as their Lord and identify as “Israel.” The meaning of “I” can be read as “I AM,” which is what Yahweh told Moses He should be named for all His children in Egypt to know. Following the vertical bar of pause, David sang (divinely inspired to speak for Yahweh), “Yahweh eloheka ,” which says Yahweh is “your elohim,” meaning the Yahweh elohim of Genesis 2 (Adam) is now one with each soul divinely wed to Him. It was this divine inner presence that led the children of Israel out of Egypt (a name meaning “Married To Tragedy”). Moses was likewise filled with Yahweh’s elohim; but nobody crossed the parted sea or survived any of the trial of the wilderness without also being personally and individually “Yahweh your elohim.” Moses not being named says those infants with His Son’s soul were fed spiritual food by Yahweh and His Son’s soul within, not by any other human being (a soul trapped in a body of flesh, prone to sin and die). This says the only thing that keeps a soul from sinning and dying is knowing Yahweh as “I,” because one’s soul has become the resurrection of “Yahweh elohim,” individually as “yours.”

In verse eleven, David names “Israel,” which can be read as the nation of twelve tribes, each descended from a son of Jacob, but the truth to that name is “Who Retains el” of Yahweh. Jacob became “Israel” – an individual soul, not a nation, nor his children – because he wrestled with his demons possessing his soul and forced them away from him, so his soul could serve Yahweh and be forgiven for all his past sins. Jacob was giving the name “Israel” as the name of Yahweh, to whom Jacob’s soul married and the defeated demon spirit told Jacob (led by Yahweh his Creator) told Jacob, “You are now Israel.” In the rest of Genesis, Jacob is still referred to as Jacob, not “Israel.” “Israel” is a spiritual name attached to a soul married to Yahweh, taking on His name in submission and sacrifice.

In the verse eleven, Yahweh said through David, “my people would not heed my voice,” where the “voice” of Yahweh is His Son’s soul becoming the Lord over the soul-flesh of each of His wife-souls, so the fleshy brain is led to divine thoughts spoken by the soul of Adam-Jesus within – one with one’s host soul. By not hearing the “Yahweh elohim” within, “none of the people not hearing an inner Yahweh elohim were not married to Him. Those were the children of parents (like Jacob was Israel to ten of his sons who were not – selling Joseph after trying unsuccessfully to kill him). Each soul born into human flesh must be taught to sacrifice self and marry their souls to Yahweh, so Adam-Jesus can become Lord over their flesh and keep them from waywardness. But, the natural way of humanity is to learn to reject Yahweh, find sin, and then feel the guilt of sin from the teachings of their parents. This is nature’s way, because one must know sin to truly know Yahweh as “I Am” the way – as Jacob came to know Yahweh.

Verse twelve then sings of Yahweh allowing souls to reject marriage to them. He lets them go the way of their own counsel, which invariably leads to a life of sin, following the urges of the flesh. Their “own counsel” becomes demon spirits that possess their souls and lead their brains to follow urges, which are addictions to the worldly realm. Verse thirteen then concludes that this waywardness will take one further away from Yahweh. Here, David again was led to write the proper name “Israel,” which is taking on a false name, as that of a nation of people who believe they are special in the world, because God chose them over all other souls breathed into human forms. That is a lie and taught by false shepherds. The truth of “Israel” is sung by David as “in my ways that should walk.” The lesson of the history of people by that name was waywardness and self-indulgence, which always led to misery and oppression by their enemies (who saw them as just like them, only spewing off at the mouth about being chosen by God to steal land). Not walking righteously made stronger enemies form against them.

Verse fourteen then sings of that history, where the enemies of the people rose up and oppressed those squatting on their lands, while not truly being “Israel.” By living a lie – using the name of Yahweh in vain – Yahweh did not protect those liars from the attacks of their enemies. Rather than Yahweh giving the enemies great powers, the lack of Yahweh’s protection – over people who were ordinarily weak of body, while strong of brain – meant the illusion of an enemy with great powers (like the giant Goliath, who was just a large ordinary soul in human flesh).

In verse fifteen, David sang of “the haters of Yahweh would pretend submission to him,” which is the lie of thinking being born to some descendant of Jacob, who had horrific histories before they submitted their souls to Yahweh, when they knew their guilt of sin when they stood before Joseph, as a great leader of Egypt. To track physical lineage to a sinner makes one be the descendant of a sinner. That praise promotes one’s own acts of sin. All the while those sinners are claiming to be children of Yahweh, when His only Son must be resurrected within each and every soul that can truthfully make that claim. To lie and use the name of Yahweh in vain means those souls will know a “fate” of Judgment that will endure forever. That is the divorce decree of which Yahweh spoke through Jeremiah.

In verse sixteen, David was inspired to sing: “and he would have fed them with the finest wheat ; and from the rock , with honey I would have satisfied you .” This needs to be seen as the proposal of marriage that Yahweh offers all souls. First He promises to “feed” your soul with spiritual food – the “bread” of heaven, manna. This is done by being cleansed by His Spirit – made a Messiah or a Christ – so His Son’s soul can be joined with His wife’s soul and become its Lord. The voice of Yahweh then flows through the Yahweh elohim within. That is where the understanding of Scripture is, so the Law is written on the walls of one’s heart (soul). The soul of Adam-Jesus then becomes the “rock,” from which flows the never ceasing flow of spiritual water. This is the promise of eternal life and is spiritual nourishment that never needs replenishing. The “honey” is the love of Yahweh, which is His Son. The “satisfaction” of all marriages comes in the marriage tent – the tabernacle where a marriage is consecrated and His Son’s seed is sown in the wife-soul’s virgin womb. The Promised Land is a soul in its flesh being given Salvation and eternal life with Yahweh.

Sirach 10:12-18 – The pride of self-esteem is a deadly sin leading to abominations

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[12] The beginning of human pride is to forsake the Lord;

the heart has withdrawn from its Maker.

[13] For the beginning of pride is sin,

and the one who clings to it pours out abominations.

Therefore the Lord brings upon them unheard-of calamities,

and destroys them completely.

[14] The Lord overthrows the thrones of rulers,

and enthrones the lowly in their place.

[15] The Lord plucks up the roots of the nations,

and plants the humble in their place.

[16] The Lord lays waste the lands of the nations,

and destroys them to the foundations of the earth.

[17] He removes some of them and destroys them,

and erases the memory of them from the earth.

[18] Pride was not created for human beings,

or violent anger for those born of women.

——————–

The Sirach reading selection is not part of the standard Old Testament. It is also called the “Wisdom of Ben Sira,” or “Ecclesiasticus.” It was originally written in Hebrew, but I have not found a website that produces that text, along with English translation possibilities. In the above English translation by the NASB, it can be assumed that “God” was written as “elohim” and “Yahweh” has been translated as “the Lord.” While the NASB translation shows only “the Lord,’ other translations (Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition) show the same Hebrew word translated as “God.” Since this is a Wisdom, in the same vein as Solomon’s works, the concepts of both “the Lord” and “God,” when seen as written “elohim” (or other words not “Yahweh”), then the Wisdom is divine inspiration about lesser spirits possessing a soul in less than divine marriage. Regardless of these possibilities, the flow of the text above paints an ugly picture of souls in the flesh who do not have a Yahweh elohim (Adam-Jesus) leading them to hear the voice of Yahweh leading them.

The theme of these verses is clearly “human pride.” It is stated in verses twelve, thirteen and eighteen. It should be recalled that “pride” is one of the seven deadly sins (a RCC list), where the truth of “deadly” is “mortal,” where all bodies of flesh die, leaving souls that were sold for the “pride” of worldly position to return (via reincarnation) to a death state after Judgment … eternally. When the definition of “pride” is seen as: “An excessively high opinion of oneself; conceit,” where “self-esteem, egotism, and vanity” are all synonymous with the definition of “pride,” the element of self-esteem says one rejects union with Yahweh, because one sees “self” (a “soul”) as a god. As such, “pride” has a soul kneel down before the altar of marriage to the flesh, with Satan officiating that possession and one of his demon spirits coming to lord over that soul-flesh to ensure self-esteem is high. The problem with that is self-esteem is measured in things that remain in the material realm after the soul leaves its mortal flesh for Judgment. At that point, as self-esteem becomes the curse of eternal damnation.

When verse twelve says “the beginning of self pride is to forsake Yahweh,” it is then “the soul” (the heart of a soul-flesh entity) that has “withdrawn from its maker.” The maker of a soul (the breath of eternal life placed temporarily in a body of dead dirt, clay, and dust) is Yahweh and only Yahweh. Mankind (its god science-medicine-biology) cannot make a soul. It can only make machines that run on power sources, which always die and need to be replenished or replaced. Mankind can only make images of itself, which means it lives down to the axiom: The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.

In verse thirteen, the defining of “pride” is called “abominations.” To take hold of self-pride means to sin. To sin means to break the Law, which is the Covenant of marriage a soul must make in submission to Yahweh. Agreement to those Laws means Yahweh’s Son must join with one’s soul and become the Lord over its flesh. This is the only way to ensure no further sins will take place by that soul-flesh. To begin “self-pride” means to open the flood gates of sin, which leads to worse and worse breakages of Law, all being deemed “abominations.” The punishment for such crimes is “unheard of calamities,” where the “destruction” is spiritual. A soul can live out its days in prideful flesh; but when those fleeting days are done, the eternal soul will be “destroyed” by eternal condemnation.

In verse fourteen, the overthrow of rulers says the self-esteem of position, where wealth and influence allow a body of flesh to stand upon the souls of others, demanding they pay homage to him or her, will only last so long. The lowly gravedigger will be the last one to walk upon their position, tamping down the loose dirt that symbolizes the end of their reigns.

Verse fifteen says those who claim rule over powerful nations – such as today the United States of America is believed to be a ‘superpower’ – to hear politicians (i.e.: Joe ‘Liar, Liar’ Biden) say, “the soul of our nation is threatened,” there is no land or place in the world that lives. All earth is dead; thus, no nation is capable of having a ‘soul.’ Only individuals, where many millions of individual souls live in one area considered a ‘nation,’ make up the many ‘souls of a nation.’ Those places called nations that have liars leading the people’s souls to ruin will be “plucked out,” meaning left leaderless from foreign attacks. Any lost “souls” allowing themselves to be led by liars will suffer the punishments of being held guilty of ignorance. When their leaders are destroyed, then the lowly humble will be put in their place, which means next in line to be held responsible for the sins of their forefathers.

All so called superpowers will be destroyed by their own means of destruction. All nations led by liars, atheists, and insane human beings with high self-esteem (due to holding the ignorant under their rule) will be destroyed. Their lands will be found lifeless, as all lost souls will be destroyed for allowing liars to lead them to ruin and destruction. The lands will be so toxic that nobody will be able to enter those places and continue to live. The absence of life in those destroyed lands will mean no one will grow up a patriot who bows down before liars and submits his or her soul to demons spirits that destroy souls.

Verse eighteen then returns to the theme of pride. It says “pride was not created for human beings,” which means that born to die has nothing to write home about as favorable. Being human means being a soul trapped in the prison that leads a soul to sin and turn away from Yahweh (the source Father) and turn to pride. Only those having earned eternal life, through marriage of their souls to Yahweh, fully in submission to His Will, can ever experience the true goodness of pride. It is a servant’s feeling from being promised eternal love and affection.

The flesh is meaningless in that promise. When the reference is to “those born of women” it is totally human, with only the breath of life animating flesh that is born to die. True pride can only be experienced by souls having married Yahweh and been cleansed of sins by His Spirit, making that soul become a virgin womb, in which Yahweh will penetrate with His holy seed. That seed is the soul of His only Son (Adam-Jesus); so, when that divine soul is born by a wife-soul made pure by the Spirit, that becomes the only “born of women” of significance. Then, “a woman” is every soul trapped in human flesh, who has become a bridesmaid of Yahweh. It is not a physical “woman” but the femininity of a soul that receives the Spirit of Yahweh and gives rebirth to His Son in their flesh.

Proverbs 25:6-7 – Stay within your means

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

Do not put yourself forward in the king’s presence

or stand in the place of the great;

for it is better to be told, “Come up here,”

than to be put lower in the presence of a noble.

——————–

These two verses are simple enough to understand. They can be summed up as the proverb that says, “Stay within your means.” Still, this simple translation is incomplete, as the last portion of verse seven is omitted. A literal translation into English shows this is written:

6 “not do exalt yourself (or honor yourself) in the presence of the king ; and in the place of the great , not do stand .”

7 “for agreeable he to say to you , ascend hither than for you to be abased of the face inclined ; who has seen your eyes .”

Remembering that the Proverbs were a collection of Solomon’s wisdom, gifted to him by Yahweh, which came upon Solomon as a possessing goddess of the worldly realm (Solomon’s spiritual wife and his lord), his reference to “king” literally means Solomon wrote this proverb for non-royals to learn and remember. It says Solomon – who was the epitome of a ‘king like other nations,’ and nothing like his father David – spoke poorly of all pretenders to the throne (his enemies) that sought to take advantage of Solomon’s youth (at first) and his waywardness (later in life). These two verses can then be heard as a threat to all who would attempt to usurp his position as King of Israel (which would happen after his death).

The truth of this wisdom expressed by the mind and pen of Solomon is his consort – Goddess Wisdom – was a creation of Yahweh, as an “elohim” assigned to assist mankind in its quest to find Yahweh and return to Him through submission to Him as King (a Holy Husband for all wife-souls). The spirit (or elohim) Wisdom then whispered the proverbs to Solomon as a double-edged sword that cut both materially (Solomon’s world) and spiritually (Yahweh’s expectations). Thus, while Solomon’s mind wrote “king” and saw that meaning clearly a reference to himself (his wayward soul), Wisdom used a generic word that equally referred to Yahweh. Thus, the spiritual message of these two verses instructs those who stand high upon altars, slaughtering animals and burning them to Yahweh, were “exalting themselves (their souls) in the presence of Yahweh,” such that the people saw them standing high – closer to God – in a position that honored them as high priests, who were Yahweh’s servants.

This was the great lie projected upon the people, in the same way that Solomon taught the lie to bow down before human figures of wealth and power, rather than David teaching the people to be true reflections of “Israel” – “Who Retain the el of Yahweh,” the Son resurrected within each of their souls. Those true Israelites could “stand in the place of the great,” because “the great” (Yahweh’s Spirit and the soul of His Son) was what raised them to an equal status of the King, as His Son reborn – a Prince of Peace.

In verse seven the mistranslated Hebrew construct is “lip̄·nê,” which the NASB translates as “the presence.” The construct is rooted in the Hebrew word “panim,” which is the plural form for “paneh,” meaning “faces.” This says the following Hebrew construct, “nā·ḏîḇ,” meaning “noble,” implying “prince,” is a statement of divine possession not seen and not projected in the text of this verse. All Old Testament uses of words that imply “faces” must be read as a spiritual restatement of the First Commandment, which truly says, “Thou shall wear the faces of no other gods (elohim) before My face.” This means the lesson of this proverb says, “If you do not wear the face of Yahweh, as His Son resurrected within your soul-flesh, so his face projects through your physical face, as the Lord over your soul-flesh for Yahweh, then you cannot invite yourself (your soul) to stand high and proclaim, “I am close to God!” Anyone doing that is committing heresy, by breaking the First Commandment as they mislead others to follow their lead as equals on earth to the King in heaven.

Where the literal translation states “for agreeable he to say to you , ascend hither,” the agreement is the Covenant, which state the spirituality of divine marriage vows. Yahweh sent those vows down with Moses, as a proposal of marriage that would unite each “agreeable” individual soul with His Spirit. After that Holy Matrimony, the consummation of that union would immediately bring about the resurrection of Yahweh’s Son’s soul (one with a host soul), who would become the Lord of that soul-flesh and project the face of Yahweh through the physical face of one saved and awarded eternal life. This is then Yahweh inviting souls to “ascend hither,” into the Spiritual realm.

To rise with a “debased face” – the face of self-ego or the face of a possessing demon spirit (even Solomon’s spiritual face of earthly Wisdom) – says those faces should be “inclined” towards the ground, where their true master (Satan) has been cast. As such, the truth is “seen in the eyes,” which are said to be the ‘windows to the soul.’ If one’s soul is “abased,” it is “inclined” to death, not everlasting life.

Verse one begins with the Hebrew words “hal·lū” and “yāh,” which translators of that language into English have created the word “hallelujah.” There is a perverse song (written by a Socialist Jew) named “Hallelujah,” with nary a mention of the true One God, named Yahweh. The Hebrew word “yah” (Hebrew has no capital letters) is defined as a “Proper Name,” and said to be the “name of the God of Israel.” (Strong’s) Well, the “name of the God of Israel” is Yahweh, which becomes abbreviated as “yah.” The Hebrew word “halal” means “to shine” (Strong’s), where “to shine” is a puzzling thing to say about “the God of Israel,” so they transform “to shine” into “praise.” In reality, David was divinely inspired to begin this song of praise by shouting out, “shine Yahweh.” The way one “shines Yahweh” is by being a soul married to His Spirit, so His Son’s soul (Adam-Jesus) has resurrected within one’s self-soul and that “shine” of “Yahweh” is a Saint who walks as Jesus reborn into flesh (even well before Jesus came and left in his flesh). To place emphasis on this shout of praise, David wrote a vertical bar after “yāh,” telling the singer to let that note ring long.

Where the translation in verse one sings “happy,” the Hebrew construct written is “’aš·rê” (from “esher”), meaning “happiness, blessedness.” (Strong’s) More often than not, this word is shown to mean “blessed,” which rings true loudly, after pausing to reflect on “shining Yahweh.” To “shine Yahweh” means one has become “blessed” by the presence of Yahweh’s Spirit and the resurrection of His Son’s soul. Certainly, that “blessed” state of being would lead to an accompanying state of “happiness,” but to say “happy are they who fear Yahweh” makes it seem possible to find “happiness” without the commitment of spiritual marriage of a soul to Yahweh.

Where it says “fear” of “Yahweh” is what leads to one’s soul being “blessed,” this means marriage to Yahweh is motivated by the command that one’s soul will “fear” only Yahweh. If one “fears” not having money or not being powerful or not having someone be attracted to one, then one will begin worshiping the demon spirits of the world, for “fear” of not being rich, influential, and sexually attractive. Those “fears” will turn one away from seeking Yahweh in divine union; so, one’s soul will not be “blessed,” meaning true “happiness” (from eternal life) will not be found.

When verse one ends by singing “delight in his commandments,” the “commandments” (construct of “mitsvah”) are the Covenant brought down the mountain by Moses. The Commandments are the terms of marriage that all individual souls must agree with. One Commandment is “Thou shall fear only Yahweh.” All other Commandments must be written on the walls of one’s heart (i.e.: soul), which is done by a wife-soul of Yahweh being joined (divine possession) by the soul of Adam-Jesus. That most holy soul leads one’s soul-body to obey ALL Commandments, without having to think about them. Thus, memorization of the Covenant is good practice and seen as attractive by Yahweh (so all Jews must memorize the Covenant as children), leading Him to propose Holy Matrimony to those souls proving sincerity and love. The “delight” is the when the wedding takes place and two are joined as one – the ‘all tingly with Spirit Baptism time.’

In verse two, the word translated as “land, earth” (“erets”) should be (always in Old Testament Scripture) read as “flesh.” This is because “flesh” is metaphorically made from dirt, dust and clay – all dead matter that become animated by the breath of life (an eternal soul) breathed into that worldly prison at birth. As such, verse two sings, “mighty in flesh will be his offspring ; dwelling in the upright will be blessed .” This is then a confirmation of the “blessed” state in verse one, now said to be from the presence of Yahweh’s Son (“the mighty”) returned to be “in flesh,” where Yahweh’s “offspring” are the multiplicity of Adam-Jesuses reborn “in flesh.” With the soul of Yahweh’s Son “dwelling in flesh,” then those wife-souls will be held “upright” in their actions (this “uprightness” is the truth to the meaning of “the cross of Jesus”), as the Son’s soul will stake their bodies of flesh “upright.” To then be righteous is to be “blessed.”

In verse three, this element of “righteousness” is stated, as coming from a “sufficiency of riches in this house.” Here, the “house” (like “earth”) is metaphor for the tabernacle that is one’s body of flesh. There will be no lack of sustenance (spiritual food and living waters) that a wife-soul (in male and female bodies of flesh) needs to feel “blessed.” This inner presence becomes the “riches” that extend eternally, not locked into only lasting in the material plane. A high priest’s soul within makes “this house” become the tabernacle that is the “house” of Yahweh. When David then sang, “this righteousness endures forever,” this says “righteousness” is only motivated through the spiritual presence of Yahweh’s eternal Son – His elohim Adam (a.k.a. Jesus). Only the spiritual can “endure forever,” which a soul is. However, trapped in a body of flesh makes a soul alone imprisoned to the death of the “earth.” Only the eternal soul of Adam-Jesus in possession of one’s wife-soul to Yahweh can free it from the realm of death, granting a soul eternal life through a return to be one with Yahweh.

Verse four sings that a soul alone exists in “darkness,” where an absence of “light” means no access to the truth of Yahweh’s Word. Divine possession by the Son’s soul brings in the “light” of truth, which begins to raise the fallen into an “upright” position, where good fruit can then be produced. This inner presence brings with his soul graciousness, compassion and righteous ways to live.

When verse five begins with the word meaning “good” (“towb”), one must remember how Jesus told the young, rich man who addressed Jesus as “good teacher,” “Only God is good.” The “goodness” of Yahweh is sewn into the fabric of His Son’s soul, so the presence of the Son makes the “good man” of Yahweh project His image. To worship the reflection is to turn away from Yahweh. The “good man” can never be “good” without Yahweh’s presence within. When David sang about this “good man deals graciously and joins,” this is the divine possession of his soul with a host soul, with the Son becoming the Lord of both host soul and its body of flesh. As the Lord of that soul-flesh, “he will guide the affairs with discretion,” which means as judged by Yahweh.

Verse six then sings of how marriage to Yahweh will be lasting, with no divorce ever desired. This sings that the union of a soul with Yahweh’s Spirit and the possession by His Son’s soul will never grow tiresome. It will always be sought. It will always be pleasing. A soul will never ‘retire’ from ministry or ‘take a leave of absence,’ in order to catch one’s breath. Only those who work too hard making up lies about their piety need such ‘time off.” Their souls never married Yahweh and they were never reborn as His Son; so, a true Saint is always looking for another assignment from Yahweh, in order to serve Him more and more.

In verse seven, one needs to recall the story of David when he was a boy and the entire army of Israel was trembling with fear. Even Sul, the king, was afraid to do battle with the giant, because they knew a loss would occur. This speaks loudly of the hearts of men who have not married Yahweh, received His cleansing Spirit and been reborn as His Son’s soul within their flesh. The element of “evil” can only exist in the world. It cannot join with the Spiritual realm of the divine. Saints are souls married to Yahweh and only fear losing that relationship. They are reborn as the Son in the flesh of the world for the purpose of confronting evil and defeating it, with no fears whatsoever that evil will triumph over the Son. To say they have the utmost “trust” in Yahweh’s protection says the truth of faith has come to them from personal experience of the Spirit and the Son. They do not enter battle having only read about the divine in books or told about beliefs to hold dear by others. They know the truth and have faith.

The strength of this faith comes from the presence of Yahweh’s Son’s soul “established in the heart” (i.e.: soul). The presence of Adam-Jesus within makes one a Saint in that name. The Son of Yahweh has the Mind of Christ (or Messiah), which is the Spirit of Yahweh making the Son the voice of Him. There is absolutely “no fear” of evil, as Yahweh knows all. The brains of the enemy will be known and revealed to the Son. This will lead the Son to command the flesh to act accordingly, to defeat the evil plots of one’s enemy.

Verse nine then sings about the ministry of Saints. They are “disbursed abroad,” so the do as Jesus commissioned his disciples, sent out in his name to spread the truth of Scripture. When we sing, “he has given to the poor,” this is not Jesus handing out promises to pay off the student loans of “the poor.” The meaning of “the poor” is all souls who are starved of spiritual food and living waters by false shepherds and hired hands, none of who have ever considered marrying their souls to Yahweh and becoming Saints in the name of His Son. Once a soul has been reborn as the Son, that “righteousness endures forever,” through the promise of eternal life after the dead body of flesh falls away. The “horns” that announce a soul’s return to be one with Yahweh will blare in “honor of an exalted” soul’s return.

Verse ten then sings of the opposite result, which will come from Judgement to all souls of the “wicked.” They will have happen to them as Jesus often said would happen to evil souls, where “the gnashing of teeth,” “grieving,” melting away” and “perishing” are all statements of the return of a soul into the physical realm – reincarnation. A soul has no “teeth to gnash,” so a return into an adult body that will find physical punishment for past sins the “gnashing of teeth” that denotes much anger (at self). The “grief” will be from recalling on Judgment day all the times that lost soul heard the truth of Yahweh spoken to him or her, but that soul refused to listen (often acting out with persecution of the innocent). The “melting away” will be the death of an old body of flesh, which might have secured large amounts of material possessions and great esteem as a ruler. However, all that will be lost in death, with Judgment meaning a return life in the flesh where the challenges of having too much will be replaced by the challenges of having too little. All challenges are agreed upon prior to reincarnation; so, the point of all challenges is to overcome them and submit to Yahweh in spiritual marriage. To “perish” then means to return, over and over again, into a body of flesh bound to die at some time, with the clock always ticking as a sign a soul must forego the entrapments of the material realm in order to be set free. The truth will set a soul free; but the truth can only come from personally joining with Yahweh – the source of all truth.

Hebrews 13:1-8, 15-16 – Sacrificing self to be in the name of God

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it. Remember those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tortured. Let marriage be held in honor by all, and let the marriage bed be kept undefiled; for God will judge fornicators and adulterers. Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.” So we can say with confidence,

“The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can anyone do to me?”

Remember your leaders, those who spoke the word of God to you; consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Through him, then, let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name. Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.

——————–

In verse one (which is possibly the shortest verse written by Paul), the NASB translation is playing politics by turning “philaelphia” – a word most adults know means “brotherly love” – into “mutual love,” as if all the women in churches of some Christian denomination would leave en masse (taking their wads of donation monies with them) if “brotherly” was not changed to accommodate human beings within penises. According to HELPS Word-studies, “philadelphia” is: “(from 5384 /phílos, “loving friend” and 80 /adelphós, “a brother”) – properly, affection for the brethren (fellow-believers).” Notice how “adelphós” does not mean ‘sister,’ as that word is “adelphé.” Still, the translation as “brotherly love” needs to be seen as having a spiritual meaning, not a physical one.

As I have explained many times in the past, a soul trapped in a body of flesh is feminine in essence. Although the soul is eternal – having been breathed out by Yahweh into a body of ‘earth, dust and clay’ that is dead and will return to that state when the soul leaves it – the flesh (and all of the worldly realm) is feminine in nature. Dead flesh receive the soul to have a semblance of life; so, it is feminine in essence. All human beings are souls trapped in bodies of flesh, thus all are potential bridesmaids to Yahweh, as feminine to His masculine. When a soul divinely marries Yahweh, receives His purifying Baptismal Spirit, so a soul becomes a virgin womb into which Yahweh can plant the seed of His Son (Adam-Jesus), the resurrection of that Son within a host soul (in its flesh) becomes a reproduction of the Son of man (where “man” means “mankind,” which includes male and female bodies of flesh). When each and every saved soul is reborn as the Son of Yahweh (Adam-Jesus once more alive in the flesh), then each and every saved soul is masculine spiritually; and, the relationship they all (males and females alike) share is they are “brothers,” because they are all the Son of Yahweh. Yahweh becomes the Father of each and every saved soul.

Now, when the aspect of “love” (the “philos” element of “philadelphia”) is considered, this is the intent and purpose for Yahweh hand-making His Son. The Son is called “Yahweh elohim” in Genesis 2 (eleven times) and that Son was made to save lost souls (the name “Jesus” means “YAH Saves” or “YAH Will Save”). Yahweh made this Savior as His personal “love” for the souls breathed into bodies of flesh, so they could be returned to be one with Yahweh (when they leave their prison of flesh). This means Adam-Jesus – the Son of Yahweh – who is reborn in lost souls, saving them, makes them all “brothers” because of the “love” of Yahweh. The “love” of Yahweh is then the soul of Adam-Jesus, which can only be known when it is resurrected within one’s soul; as it is not the same as physical (emotional) human ‘love.’ Thus, for Paul to write “This brotherly love let it remain” (or “continue”) is a statement that says the possession of a soul by the Son of Yahweh’s soul means eternal life – forever “remaining.”

The translation of verse two is equally mistaken, where “hospitality to strangers” is another politicization that fits hidden agendas of false priests. Two words include “strangers” in their translation into English meanings. The first is “philoxenias,” which means “love of strangers” (written in the Genitive case, translating wholly as “of this of love of strangers”). The second (a balancing word) is “xenisantes,” which means “to receive as a guest,” while implying in usage “I entertain a stranger.” When the whole of verse two is seen as stating, “of this of love of strangers not you forget ; on account of of this indeed , it is hidden [or to escape notice] certain ones having entertained strangers divine messengers .” That is Paul reminding Saints like him “not to forget they were once strangers who found the love of Yahweh.” They were not chosen to be special pets of Yahweh, but to be sent as ‘divine messengers” – each filled with the “angel” of Yahweh’s Son – “to entertain other strangers.” It is “on account of this” – being eternally saved by “brotherly love” – that they will be reborn as the Son so others can equally be saved souls.

In verse three, Paul was not making some statement that hired hands and false shepherds should enter into the dens of inequity that manmade brick-and-mortar prisons housed the most heinous breakers of law known to mankind and attempt to rescue them by delivering lame orations of misunderstanding of divine texts. Paul wrote while in a dungeon in Rome, but he was not pandering for visitors to come show him some love. Paul’s soul will united with Yahweh’s “love” – the Son Jesus resurrected within his soul – so he was not reminding Saints their mission included prison ministries.

That places a wholly material realm meaning onto these spiritual words. Paul was reminding all true Saints that they had once been souls entrapped in the prison of their own flesh; and, Yahweh had freed them from all the self-imposed “mistreatment” they caused to their soul through past sins. Yahweh freed them through Spiritual marriage and the resurrection of His Son within their lost souls, so they were promised eternal life. A Saint is sent out into ministry (not into prisons – keeping in mind Jesus never visited John while he was imprisoned in Herod’s lockup), where the teaching of the truth of Scripture is the key that unlocks the prisons of the flesh: “and the truth shall set you free.”

In verse four, Paul’s references to “marriage” are not about the physicality of a woman being betrothed to a man. They are all about “a wedding within” (from “gamos en”) that unites “all” (“pasin”) souls that are freed (saved eternally). When Paul wrote of “the marriage bed” being “undefiled” (“koitē amiantos”), this is about the cleansing of all past sins, so a soul in its flesh – reborn as Jesus in the flesh – can live the remainder of its life on earth sin free. The “marriage bed” was recently seen in parable, when Jesus told of a friend coming at midnight asking for bread to feed a visitor. Jesus was the soul awoken by the knock (“and the door will be opened”), who was sleeping with Yahweh’s children in the marriage bed with his soul. This means the mention of “adultery” – a Commandment of the divine marriage vows – says a soul saved will no longer ‘sleep around’ with demon spirits that lead a soul in its flesh to sin.

Verse five then begins with the capitalized Greek word “Aphilargyros,” which is the Nominative Masculine Singular form of “aphilarguros,” meaning “without love of money.” The capitalization elevates this word to a divine level of meaning, where the “love of Yahweh” is a true Spiritual “love,” with “money” being metaphor for the worldly realm and all the material possessions it can offer (on a temporary basis). When Paul then continued to say this Spiritual state of “love” was “this manner of life,” he was saying the “brotherly love” that always “remains” is purely Spiritual, from a soul married to Yahweh’s Spirit and the union of a possessing Lord-soul is nothing that can be seen by human eyes. This inner presence always makes a Saint “being satisfied with the present,” which is always “remaining,” never fleeting.

In the second half of verse five, we get the impression that Paul heard Jesus give a quote, when in reality Paul never physically met Jesus. Since there were no book stores selling copies of the New Testament back then, this quote can only be attributed to the truth being told to Paul’s soul, after his soul married Yahweh and became one with the soul of Jesus. The rest of verse five literally translates into English saying, “his soul indeed it has said : not lest you I will give up , neither not lest you I will desert .” When this is attributed to Paul having first stated that his soul has been sent as a statement of Yahweh’s “love,” which always makes a wife-soul married to His Spirit feel His presence in the “present,” the gift of His Son’s soul is the promise of eternal life, which “will never cease being one with one’s soul and never leave a soul-wife of Yahweh once given.”

From this promise of eternal divine assistance, verse six then speaks of the true faith that comes to a soul imprisoned in flesh, from personal experience of the soul of Jesus having been reborn into one’s soul-flesh. It is an affirmation that begins with the capitalized Greek word “Hōste,” which means “Therefore.” When raised to a divine level of meaning, this word must be understood to properly mean: “(a conjunction, derived from 5613 /hōs, “as” and 5037 /té, “both-and”) – wherefore (with the result that both . . . ), connecting cause to necessary effect which emphasizes the result (the combined, end-accomplishment). The result involved then is the combination of both elements in the correlation, underscoring the inevitable effect of the paired elements.” (HELPS Word-studies) As a divine level of Yahweh means Spirituality has joined with a soul (with the second soul of His Son added), the “both and” makes “Therefore” be a divine statement of Spiritual union. Whereas a soul was once lost before, now it has been found forevermore.

The affirmation comes with the complete “confidence” that knows this presence is leading it away from past sins and onward to an eternal life of oneness with Yahweh, as His Son reborn. Thus, all Saints say: “Lord to my soul helper , [ kai ] not I will fear ; what will it do to my soul mankind ?” Here, the capitalization of “Kyrios” becomes a divinely elevated statement that the possessing soul of Jesus (the Son of Yahweh) – as two souls in one body of flesh – will be welcomed as the “Lord” over both the host soul and its flesh. As to Paul saying, “my soul helper,” this is not the soul of Jesus that is the “helper soul,” but the host soul being the “helper soul” to the “Lord” soul – Jesus. The brackets surround the Greek word “kai” means the importance that should be seen in this “Lord my soul helper” is it is unseen and within one’s physical body of flesh. It is then within one’s soul that safety and protection is strongly felt, leading all such souls to affirm, “I will not fear,” knowing this presence is with my soul. The question then asks, “What can mankind do to me?” where there is no persecution or punishment that will be more than a fleeting physical pain, to then be replaced with eternal bliss. There is no reason to fear suffering as a Saint sent out as a messenger of Yahweh, in the name of Jesus.

In verse seven, Paul begins with the capitalized Greek word “Mnēmoneuete,” which means “you Remember.” Following a verse of affirmation to the Spirit and to the Son (two-thirds of the Trinity within), the call to “Remember” is those false shepherds and hired hands who told lies, which were revealed when the soul led by Jesus can and exposed the truth of Scripture for the first time – “the word of God.” The comparison of the two – liars and Saints – is seen by “observing carefully this outcome of this of conduct [or “way of life”] and how each “imitates” [or “follows”] “this faith”. One way leads to the promotion and acceptance of sinful ways, where the leaders of the Temple and their aligned synagogue rabbis, promoted monetary profits at the expense of those seeking to hear the truth of “the word of God.” The other – the Saints – tell the truth and demonstrate how that truth motivates them to lead their lives righteously (with the help of Jesus as their Lord within).

Verse eight then begins with the two capitalized words “Iēsous Christos,” which comes off like a proper name, where Jesus is the Christian name and Christ is the surname. That is not the case, as each capitalized word must be read individually and separately as a divinely elevated meaning related to Yahweh, before the two can be joined together. The name “Jesus” means “Yahweh Saves” and the word “Christ” is the same as the Hebrew word “mashiach” (Hebrew has no capital letters), where both words mean “Anointed.” This, elevated to a divine level of meaning is a statement of Yahweh’s “Anointment,” where His Spirit is poured out upon a soul forever (as was David). Thus, the two words state that “Yahweh Saves” soul that have been “Anointed” by His Spirit. That “Christ” state is the Baptism by the Spirit that makes a soul “Saved by Yahweh” cleansed by all past sins. That virgin state of being makes a wife-soul then (like the Virgin Mary) prepared to receive the soul of His Son, which is sent to all souls “Saved by Yahweh.” Thus, “Jesus Christ” is a statement that says to be “Saved by Yahweh” a soul must be “Anointed” by His Spirit and prepared to become His Son’s place of resurrection – “Receive the Spirit.”

Paul then added that the receipt of this saving soul – which can only enter into one made a “Christ” – had come “yesterday” to all the Saints who would read Paul’s letter written in Hebrew, while he was in a Roman prison. Once a soul has been “Saved by Yahweh” and “Anointed” forever by His Spirit, then that salvation will exist “to the ages.”

In the leap forward to verse fifteen, it is most important to see Paul recommending to those souls not yet married to Yahweh to do like him and the other Saints created since Jesus walked the earth: “we should offer up as a sacrifice of praise because of all to this to God.” This is not a suggestion to throw some hotdogs on the grill and have a party celebrating God. Instead, it means “sacrificing” one’s “whole” self – soul and body – to Yahweh in divine marriage. A “sacrifice” means the total destruction of what once trapped an eternal soul within, such that the flesh has been willingly “offered up” to “this of God” to use as His. When Paul then wrote, “the fruit of the lips confessing this name of his soul,” that is the ministry in the name of Jesus that has his possessing soul lead a body of flesh out, to speak the truth to seekers.

Verse sixteen then says this sacrifice of self to allow the Son of Yahweh to again walk the earth in sin free flesh is what pleases God. When we read in the New Testament Gospels where God spoke and said, “in him I am well pleased,” this refers to those who made such sacrifices of self, because Jesus came to them as seekers and shared the truth to their souls. Yahweh “is pleased” with “all” souls who bow down before Him at the altar of divine marriage and sacrifice self. In return they take on the name of Yahweh (Israel) and they give rebirth to His Son, whose name they enter ministry “confessing” to be (in the name of Jesus).

Luke 14:1, 7-14 – A sabbath luncheon and a parable of a wedding feast

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

On one occasion when Jesus was going to the house of a leader of the Pharisees to eat a meal on the sabbath, they were watching him closely.

When he noticed how the guests chose the places of honor, he told them a parable. “When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet, do not sit down at the place of honor, in case someone more distinguished than you has been invited by your host; and the host who invited both of you may come and say to you, `Give this person your place,’ and then in disgrace you would start to take the lowest place. But when you are invited, go and sit down at the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he may say to you, `Friend, move up higher’; then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you. For all who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

He said also to the one who had invited him, “When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

——————–

Verse one is placed in this reading, while skipping over the following five verses. It is important to know that context, as it is directly pertinent to the information stated in verse one. The five omitted verses tell that “one of the rulers of the Pharisees” had invited a “certain man with dropsy” – a visible swelling in some part of the body, due to a build-up of fluids in the body – so “they were watching closely” Jesus, to see what he would do to this “known Jew” (the meaning of “certain one”). Upon seeing this “certain man,” Jesus asked the guests at the luncheon (“the lawyers kai Pharisees”), “Is it permitted by law to this to sabbath to cure or not ?” When they “were silent” and did not respond, Jesus then “healed his soul” (of the “certain one”) kai “set him free” from that demon spirit within that caused him to retain fluids. Jesus then asked the group, “Of Who of you with a son or an ox fall into a pit on the sabbath would not immediately pull him out ?” To that question they all had nothing they could say. It is then from that demonstration (which showed how poor the “ruler of the Pharisees,” the “lawyers kai Pharisees” were in claiming to serve Yahweh, when none did anything of value any day of the week … much less on the sabbath.

Without knowing the details of these five verses, which make is clear that all the “rulers” of the Temple in Jerusalem and the “Pharisees” who owed their wealth and position to making a profit off knowing nothing of value about the Law (as “lawyers”) says Jesus was then moved to tell a parable about that total incompetence in leadership for the Jews. This means what seems to be Jesus invited to dine where a table would be where seats of position were arranged made him watch the mad scramble to seat close to the head of the table and tell a story about waiting to sit, letting the host seat the guests. That has absolutely nothing to do with the deeper meaning that is in this parable, because everything was set to the environment of the present, but metaphor for being seated at Yahweh’s ‘table’ in the afterlife. Everyone who claimed to know the Law were speechless as to what Law says not to save your son, or even a possession like an ox, if it fell into a pit. While they knew nothing of value about the truth of Scripture, they all positioned themselves as if distinguished guests of Yahweh. Jesus pointed out they were the lowest of all invitees (Jews) and they should admit that lowliness, rather than have Yahweh Judge them as heretics defiling His Holy name.

When verse seven says Jesus then told a “parable,” the Greek word “parabolēn” comes from a root that is properly understood to be: “a teaching aid cast alongside the truth being taught. This casts additional light by using an arresting or familiar analogy, (which is often fictitious or metaphorical, but not necessarily).” (HELPS Word-studies) This means Jesus telling a story about a spiritual gathering, not a physical one, like that Jesus was attending. The spiritual aspect of this “parable” must be remembered to be a “teaching aid cast alongside of the truth being taught.” Jesus was not teaching how to line up at a luncheon and let the one inviting guests seat them one at a time, according to favorability. Jesus was teaching that everyone in that ruler of the Pharisees’ house acted like they were Yahweh’s favored guests in Jerusalem, when not one of them could heal a man with an illness, by being an outlet for Yahweh on earth.

In verse eight, Jesus spoke the equivalent to the Greek word “gamous,” which infers a “wedding feast.” This means the “parable” is not about the rich and powerful gathering to eat lunch on a sabbath, but about the table that is the earth plane being where Yahweh invites His chosen ones to partake of spiritual food (manna from heaven). This then says all those invited (the Jews were the remnant of the chosen ones brought to the Promised Land from Egypt, by Moses) were all bridesmaids awaiting the official union of their souls with the bridegroom – Yahweh’s Spirit. Those who would sit closest to the head of the table would be the Saints, such as Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and Jesus – all the Saints who would officiate the union of wife-souls to Yahweh’s Spirit, with those bridesmaids still awaiting the time for divine marriage considered the least of those invited. This then says the ruler of the Pharisees and his lawyers were more like those bridesmaids whose lamps ran out of oil (the light of truth), at the time when the bridegroom came. They were deemed foolish and never joined with Yahweh as one. They become reflective of the goats that Yahweh and the souls of Jesus would say, “I do not know you,” as they will not be the sheep who sacrificed their worldly positions for the promise of eternal life in the spiritual realm, with Yahweh.

The ruler of the Pharisees and his invited guests (who watched Jesus closely) were those who would show up late at the wedding feast (another parable told by Jesus), not dressed for marriage to Yahweh. They would be kicked out of the wedding feast, in the way that Jesus said the one inviting guests (a proposal of divine marriage) would send out messengers announcing everyone is welcome; but the ones who show up for free food, with no intent of sacrificing their souls in marriage to Yahweh, would not be dressed for such a special occasion. The ruler of the Pharisees and his lawyer friends all had no intentions for marrying Yahweh and sacrificing their worldly gains. Thus, they would be cast out of any promise of eternal life.

As for the “ruler of the Pharisees” (who was just one of many), it makes sense that he would be Nicodemus. The “certain one” who suffered from dropsy would then most likely be Joseph of Arimathea, who when healed had his soul touched by Jesus, making him become wholly supportive of Jesus as the Son of Yahweh. Nicodemus and Joseph would have been secret disciples of Jesus, who were sent out as a pair with the other sixty-nine pairs. Most likely they did not risk being seen defending Jesus in any way, so they did not go tell anyone “the kingdom of God has come near.” The symbolism of a build up of fluids in Joseph means he felt the emotional ebb and flow of Jesus possessed by the Spirit of Yahweh, but he retained that within himself, afraid to let his faith be shown. When Jesus touched Joseph with his soul, freeing Joseph to fully express his love of God and his support of Jesus, not only did his dropsy go away, but he began to serve Yahweh as an extension of Jesus.

Jeremiah 18:1-11 – Being a perfect vessel on the potter’s wheel

December 25, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[1] The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh: [2] “Come, go down to the potter’s house, and there I will let you hear my words.” [3] So I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was working at his wheel. [4] The vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter’s hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as seemed good to him. פ

[5] Then the word of Yahweh came to me: [6] Can I not do with you, O house of Israel, just as this potter has done? says Yahweh. Just like the clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel. ס

[7] At one moment I may declare concerning a nation or a kingdom, that I will pluck up and break down and destroy it, [8] but if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turns from its evil, I will change my mind about the disaster that I intended to bring on it. ס

[9] And at another moment I may declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it, [10] but if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will change my mind about the good that I had intended to do to it. ס

[11] Now, therefore, say to the people of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Thus says Yahweh: Look, I am a potter shaping evil against you and devising a plan against you. Turn now, all of you from your evil way, and amend your ways and your doings.

——————–

When verse one says (literally translated into English), “the word which came to pass to Jeremiah from Yahweh saying,” this cannot be seen as Jeremiah sitting in a chair in his house, when Yahweh all of a sudden showed up at the door and said, “Hey Jere, meet me down at the potter’s house. I want to tell you something there.” This “word that came to pass to Jeremiah from Yahweh” was spiritual, where Yahweh spoke to Jeremiah’s soul; so, when Jeremiah heard the voice of Yahweh “speaking” to his soul, he immediately listened. Because ordinary Tom, Dick, and Harriets cannot hear the voice of Yahweh speak to he or he … ever … this ability of Jeremiah says his soul was married to Yahweh. As a wife-soul, his soul was obediently alert to hear the call of Yahweh and immediately respond as His loving servant.

In verse two, there is a missing element, which is the first word spoken by Yahweh to Jeremiah, which says, “arise” (“qūm”). This, again, is not Yahweh telling Jeremiah to get up out of his seat, but it is a spiritual direction that says, “Let your soul lift away from your flesh, so I can show you metaphor that is in the material world. After that word “arise,” Yahweh then said, “and descend” (“wə·yā·raḏ·tā”) “to house of the potter.” The “house” is a statement of the realm of the world where life is found; and, “of the potter” is better translated as “of the fashioner” or “of the former” (“hay·yō·w·ṣêr,” rooted in “yatsar”). This is then much less about taking the soul of Jeremiah down the road a bit to where some man made vases for the locals to buy and use and much more about Yahweh taking the soul of Jeremiah well back in time, to when Creation was in progress by the elohim created by Yahweh (in Genesis 1) did the work of a “fashioner” or “former.”

In verse three, the English translation above misses an important signal found in the text. Where we read, “and there he was,” the Hebrew text has this text presented: “[ “wə·hin·nê·hū”] ( “wə·hin·nêh-”) ( “hū”)” . The repeated word – “wə·hin·nê·hū” – speaks spiritually, rather than physically. Thus, when verse three begins by saying, “and when I descended to the realm of the fashioner,” a semi-colon mark separates that by the above text, which repeats: “and there was he and there was he,” where the brackets speak spiritually of the elohim “fashioner” of mankind in Creation AND there was Yahweh overseeing that work.

Genesis 1 includes the same Hebrew word “והנהו” written here, translated as “and there was he.” In Genesis 1:31 (the last verse), that word is written and translated as meaning “and indeed it was,” followed by the Hebrew word “towb,” meaning “good.” Thus, here the translation can be: “and indeed it was and indeed it was he”. Without understanding why Jeremiah would place certain words between brackets and parentheses means translation services throw that out as if unimportant and not worth figuring out. The unstated (as asides) are inferences to the spiritual; so, the soul of Jeremiah was taken to the time of Creation, when saw mankind being “fashioned.”

When verse four begins by stating, “and was gone to ruin the vessel,” when understanding the soul of Jeremiah has been transported to a time when mankind was being “formed” by the hand of the elohim “fashioner,” the aspect of a “ruined vessel” must be seen as when the elohim began hideous experiments with humanity, with the creation of grotesque monsters and giants. As “vessels,” each was designed (by Yahweh) to receive a soul that would animate the “vessel” to life. Because Yahweh’s plan did not allow the elohim the freedom to make horrendous changes in mankind (male and female they made them), the Great Flood would become the event that would be when “again he made it into vessel another , as good it seemed to the fashioner to make .” This was when all the monsters had been destroyed or driven underground, so the mankind stemming from Noah (descendant of Adam – the Son of Yahweh) would be Yahweh’s design that would be “good to make”.

Thus, the first four verses speak of the design of Yahweh, whose instructions were passed on to the “fashioner” or the “former.” This element of the “potter” must be seen as parallel of Genesis 1, where the “fashioner” were the elohim that were created by Yahweh to “form” the material plane. The “former’s house” is then the Earth which spins around the Sun on a flat plane orbit, as a spinning “wheel.” When Yahweh allowed Jeremiah to see the “ruin” of that being “made of flesh” (metaphor for “clay”), it was “reworked” or “again made.” This becomes parallel to the Great Flood that destroyed all that had been “formed,” but went wrong in formation. The Great Flood was followed by Noah and Shem begetting the royal line of souls that would become the spiritual descendants of Abram.

The placement of a “peh” (“פ”) at then end of verse four signals this important section is “open.” This says the four-verse presentation of Creation of mankind, with it becoming “marred” while still in a wet “clay” state ends with that story, while opening the following verses to “close” that perspective. The ending of verses six, eight and ten with a samekh (“ס”) means the open series is then “closed,” with three closures presented, with all relating to the Great Flood’s cleansing of the “ruined,” to be replaced with a new “formation.”

Verse five then repeats verse one, with Jeremiah replacing his name with “to me” (“’ê·lay”). The promise of Yahweh speaking to Jeremiah is then fulfilled, after his soul has seen the power of Yahweh to command changes to His creations. Here, Yahweh poses a question that implies Yahweh’s command of the elohim He created makes Him be the premier “former” of “fashioner,” whose hands hold the spirits that are the elohim, so they can be reshaped and remade when He seen “ruin” in their “formation.” This becomes an unstated question about the power of Yahweh to cast down into the earth the fallen angels who rebelled against Yahweh’s command to serve mankind. When they instead decided to make monsters of animal-man (male and female they were crossbred with the elohim (or “gods”), their “potter’s clay” was redone and they were forbid from ever touching the spinning wheel physically again.

When this deep concept is seen in this text, Yahweh then commanded Jeremiah to go “the house of Israel” and explain to them (again) what that house means. The word “Israel” means those people (not a nation) “Who Retain the el of Yahweh” – His elohim that is the Son. For all souls who do not marry their souls to Yahweh, so their souls can be cleansed of imperfections and made virginal to receive the soul of the Son within their souls, then those rejects will be smashed down onto the wheel, no longer the “ruined” work it had become. With that ‘return to Go’ done, everything the failed “house of Israel” would have become will be finished. This command to Jeremiah to know the power in the hands of Yahweh ends with a closure mark, showing Yahweh can ‘Great Flood’ the wicked calling themselves “Israel” falsely, so the world will be swept clean of their “ruined formation.”

In verse seven, Yahweh said, “the moment I speak , concerning a people and concerning a sovereignty ; to root out and to break down to perish .” This says the manner in which Yahweh “speaks” to “a people” who claim “sovereignty” due to having been “fashioned” by the hand of Yahweh, but are not perfectly made by His design, those words will be heard in the dismantling of all who falsely make such claims in Yahweh’s name as the “immediate” destruction of the “ruined vessel” they truly were.

In verse eight, those who hear that word of Yahweh spoken in the signs that lead to “perishing” as ”a people” and as “a sovereign” gathering in Yahweh’s name, so the “people” change their wicked way and repent, then Yahweh will save them. To see Yahweh saying “I will relent from disaster” as a statement that says, “I will save them from their self-made disaster,” the implication is the “people” themselves cannot keep themselves from heading towards “disaster.” Therefore, only “Yahweh Will Save,” which is a promise that says “I will console their souls from disaster” by sending their soul the soul of My Son to join with their souls. This leads to another mark of “closure,” related to the Creation story told prior. Yahweh created “a people sovereign as the truth of Israel,” all of whom received His Spirit and were each the resurrection of His Son’s soul. That addition to the “clay” of those “vessels” is the only way to avert “disaster.” Thus, Yahweh created His Son on the seventh day – the day made holy – for the sole purpose of saving mankind from “disaster.”

In verse nine, Yahweh spoke of the “moment His word decides to build and plant a people of His sovereignty.” This is then followed by verse ten, where once again there are spiritual statements of unstated physical words (as seen in verse three). The translation above that says, “but if it does evil in my sight” misses the point of Jeremiah writing “wə·‘ā·śāh [ “hā·rā·‘āh” ] ( “hā·ra‘” ) bə·‘ê·nay,” where the non-bracketed and non-parenthesized translates into English saying, “and if it makes in my eye”. This becomes the inspection of a “vessel” by the “fashioner,” to “see” if any imperfections are showing. The unstated spiritual word repeated implies that “made” is “evil” or “bad.” As an unstated spiritual implication, this says that which is “evil” is demonic spirit possession. Such demons possess a soul in its flesh (or ‘clay”), “making” it commit sins that are known by Yahweh. The acts committed are the signs of “ruin,” but the “evil” is spiritual, thus invisible to the naked “eye.”

When Yahweh then said “if a people formed in the image of Yahweh make it known they are imperfect,” then they will make that “evil” known by “disobeying His voice.” That says everyone of those “people” should be exactly like Jeremiah, such that each awaits the call from Yahweh and immediately responds, “Here I am” when called. When Jeremiah becomes the exception to that rule, then the people have given an unspoken sign that “evil” has possessed their souls. At that time, everything promised as “good” for “a people” will be taken away (“I will relent”). This then is where the third sign of “closure” is placed, referring back to the open series about the Creation plan and the cleaning of the wheel with the Great Flood.

Verse eleven is then the command given by Yahweh to Jeremiah, to “speak now to the men of Judah (a name that means “Praiser”) and to the souls dwelling in Jerusalem (a name meaning “Teaching Peace”)” and tell them, “behold Yahweh is fashioning their disaster and devising a plan against them”. If they want to avert their self-made destruction, then they must “return now man from evil ways and make good your ways and your doings”. That says the imperfection seen by the “eye” of Yahweh is telling Him to destroy and start over. The only way to avoid that destruction is to marry their individual souls to Yahweh and give rebirth to His Son in each of their souls. Of course, knowing the end of that story, they rejected the messenger and the message.

The moral of this story applies to everyone, at all times. Disaster is manmade and assured to all mortals. The ways of salvation are the perfect plan set forth by Yahweh, through Moses. The Commandments can only be remembered and lived when the Son of Yahweh’s soul has become one’s inner Lord, controlling the soul and its flesh (“clay”). To reject that design is to be reworked after destruction.
