I have an ability to understand Nostradamus in a way that no one else can. I can translate and interpret what he wrote in the letters and verses of The Prophecies, in such a way that can be logically defended. That ability has led me to find that I am able to understand the books of the Holy Bible in ways I never imagined I could. None of this talent has come to me through educational institutions or seminaries, as everything dawns upon me. No one has taught me what I understand. My understanding is purely by divine assistance, which I did not seek to possess, but which I wholeheartedly welcome. Because I do not have this ability to keep to myself, I write freely about those translations and interpretations that come to me, so others may find how they too can understand how Nostradamus was a prophet of God and how Christianity is now failing Christ, just as the children of Israel failed God. Understanding what I have to offer is the only chance this world has for survival. If you would like to ask questions and take the time to seriously discuss this topic, feel free to send me an email or post a comment on one of my blog articles.

Luke 12:32-40 – Becoming spiritually vigilant to prevent the theft of one’s soul

December 26, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

Jesus said to his disciples, [32] “Do not be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. [33] Sell your possessions, and give alms. Make purses for yourselves that do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. [34] For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

[35] “Be dressed for action and have your lamps lit; [36] be like those who are waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that they may open the door for him as soon as he comes and knocks. [37] Blessed are those slaves whom the master finds alert when he comes; truly I tell you, he will fasten his belt and have them sit down to eat, and he will come and serve them. [38] If he comes during the middle of the night, or near dawn, and finds them so, blessed are those slaves.

[39] “But know this: if the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. [40] You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an unexpected hour.”

——————–

In verse thirty-two, Luke begins by writing a capitalized “Mē,” which is a divinely elevated statement of “Not.” When this negative word is read on a Yahweh level of meaning, the word “Not” is a double-edged statement, relative to that stated next, which is “you fear.” These two words are separated from the rest of the verse, by Luke’s use of a comma mark; so, the “Not” is relative to that stated before, which is relative to the disciples “seeking the kingdom of him” – God. Thus, “Not” says if one has “Not” become a soul married to Yahweh, then “you fear.” Conversely, if one’s soul has become married to Yahweh, then “you fear Not,” because Yahweh protects your soul. This becomes a profound statement and not some suggestion that the disciples stop worrying about what will happen to their souls after death.

Missing in the translation, relative to the second segment of words, is the article “to,” which identifies “this little flock,” as opposed to any other “small” gathering of lost sheep. Following Jesus stating the lack of “fear” that will prevail in saved souls, “this small flock” of disciples is now being pointed out. Then Jesus said, “because he is well pleased this Father of your souls to place to your souls this kingdom.” There, the capitalized “Father” is a statement of relationship, which says not only have the souls of the disciples married Yahweh (engaged to be), they have been given Jesus as their brother soul, so all can identify Yahweh as “Father.” Those “Not” of His other “small flocks” cannot make such an identification. In the uses of “hymōn” and “hymin,” these pronouns that translate as “you” or yourselves” (in the plural) has to be seen as reference to “souls,” as a “self” is a “soul.” Yahweh, as the supreme deity of all is spiritual, not physical; so, he has no children in the flesh to call Him “Father.” The relationship is a soul to Yahweh’s Spirit.

In verse thirty-three, Luke began with the capitalized Greek word “Pōlēsate,” which is the second-person plural Aorist Imperative that has been translated by the NRSV as “Sell.” As a divinely elevated word that has to be read on the level of Yahweh’s spirituality, the true translation of this word must be read as “you Exchange,” because the lower-case definition of the infinitive root “póleó” is “to exchange or barter, to sell.” This one word is then Yahweh speaking through the Son, saying “all of you Exchange these possessions of your souls,” where this states the ownership of the body of flesh by its host soul has been “Exchanged” through divine marriage with Yahweh, so Yahweh is now the one in “possession” of “your souls.”

When that is understood, Luke then wrote the word “kai,” which is a marker word that denotes importance to follow. After having “Exchanged one’s soul for a divine possessor,” it is then important to “give” or “set in place” “charity,” in return for one’s soul having been “pitied” and shown “mercy.” This states an “Exchange” for past sins, leading one to “give charitably” as Yahweh deems necessary.

Following a semi-colon mark, which begins a new statement relative to this spiritual “Exchange,” Luke then wrote of Jesus saying to “make to your souls purses not growing old”. This has absolutely nothing to do with sewing together pieces of leather, to create a bag in which gold and silver coins can be held. It says Yahweh will “make to your souls,” as part of this divine “Exchange,” “purses,” where spiritual value will be held safely within one’s soul-body. One becomes a “purse” of truth, which does “not” ever become “old” news. The truth is always fresh and never worthless. The truth does not grow or decrease in value, based on a commodities market. The truth is always valuable and what lost souls are always seeking to find. This is then explained by Luke in the next segment, which says, “a storehouse of precious (truths) unfailing within to these to souls”.

Jesus was then recorded to add, about these valuable held within those souls that have “Exchanged” their own souls for the soul of Jesus to lead them with the light of truth, “where thief not does he come near.” This says a truth exposed cannot be stolen by a “thief,” as a truth coming out of the mouth of a liar and cheat will sound good at first, but upon questioning the “thief” will be incapable of following a truth with more truth. The “thieves” are then those false leaders that twisted the words of Scripture to suit their personal needs for profits, at the expense of the lost sheep (“small flocks”). Thus, a “thief” is compared to a “moth,” which is an insect that feeds off physical fabrics. The physical fabric of Yahweh is Scripture; so, the false shepherds are like those who feed off dead matter, not the living truth. They cannot “destroy” living souls that have been “Exchanged” with Yahweh, so the truth will have set them free from destruction by those who would steal from them.

In verse thirty-four, Jesus addressed “where indeed it exists this treasure (or storehouse for precious truths) of your souls”. This says the Spirit of Yahweh “exists” in possession “of your souls,” so this divine presence is “this treasure” held within the “purse” of oneself. This “treasure” is not only the truth of Scripture, it is the promise of eternal life beyond the death of the flesh. Thus, the “where” is “there,” where this presence “exists of your souls.” Jesus then identified “there” as importantly (use of “kai”) this heart of your souls will exist.” The Greek word “kardia” says “heart,” but also implies “mind, character, inner self, will, intention, center.” Therefore, “there” is a joint soul within one’s soul; so, the “treasure” is the soul of Jesus resurrected within one’s soul.

Luke then capitalized the first word of verse thirty-five, writing “Estōsan,” the third-person plural Active Imperative form of “eimi,” meaning “they Exist.” This is a divinely elevated word that makes a statement about those souls who have married Yahweh and now “Exist” as an extension of “I Am” – YHWH. Luke then followed that with the Genitive case (the possessive “of”) “hymōn,” which is a statement that says “they Exist of your souls,” making the divine elevation be of the spiritual, not the physical or material. This “Existence” then possesses those souls. Luke then added Jesus saying, “the loins girding,” where “loins” must be read as metaphor for the urges of the flesh, many of which are pleasure seeking and sexual immoralities. This presence that “Exists of your souls” is then “girding” or controlling one’s influences of the flesh.

Following a comma mark of separation, Luke wrote the word “kai,” denoting an emphasis of importance next placed that says, “these lamps burning”. Here, the “girding of the loins” takes away the underlying drive to satisfy the urges and desires of the flesh, importantly transforming those bodies of flesh into “lamps burning.” As a “lamp,” one must understand that the purpose of a “lamp” is to shine light into the darkness, so the light of truth will be shone brightly. When “these lamps” are understood to be those held by the bridesmaids of Yahweh, the word stating “burning” must be read as a “consumption by fire,” where the metaphor is a transformation form the yearnings of the flesh to a “burning” desire to please Yahweh and shine His light of truth. This “burning” is then the motivation for ministry in the name of His Son, Jesus.

Following a semi-colon mark at the end of verse thirty-five, Luke began verse thirty-six with the word “kai,” indicating it is important to see this separate but relative view that states one word: “your souls” (from “hymeis”). This says the inner “burning” to be “lamp” of Yahweh AND the urges of the flesh that must be controlled are all relative to the host soul. Without divine marriage to Yahweh, no soul is capable of maintaining a “burning” desire to sacrifice self and totally serve Yahweh.

This important aspect of “your souls” is then compared to a servant and his or her master. This simile is then stated as: “to men to expectations this master of their souls , when he shall unloose from out of of those of weddings , in order that having come kai of having gained admittance , at once they should have opened to his soul .” Here, the translation of “anthrōpois” should be read as “mankind” or “humanity,” so this includes all genders of man. All “humanity” needs to be seen as a bridesmaid, which is the femininity of a soul trapped in human flesh. As such, the ”expectations” for “this” marriage of souls to Yahweh is the surrender of their self-ego and self-will, willingly and lovingly seeking Yahweh to become the “master,” as their soul’s Husband. This is the “unloosing” of one’s self-will “from out of” control over one’s flesh. The element of “weddings” is the wife surrenders her family name, taking on the name of her husband. The same “expectations” are present in a divine union of soul and Spirit. This must be the case, “in order that” – the divine presence that is “burning” within – comes.

At that point, Luke inserted the word “kai,” showing the importance of that “having come” means the possession of one’s soul by Yahweh. The door being knocked on will have the door opened, but if one has not put on the clothes of “wedding,” as a sign of one’s sacrifice of self-ego, one will not be allowed entrance. Thus, “of having gained admittance” says a soul has prepared accordingly to become the bride of Yahweh and is allowed to receive Yahweh’s Spirit within one’s soul. When Luke then had Jesus say, “immediately they should have opened to his soul,” which is the resurrection of the Son of Yahweh’s soul (Adam-Jesus) within the soul of a wife to Yahweh. The “at once” says there is no time wasted celebrating the divine marriage, such that a “wedding” night would be when a husband would plant his seed, waiting to see if that seed took hold. The resurrection of Jesus comes “immediately” after the “wedding” vows – the Covenant – have been written on the walls of a soul.

In verse thirty-seven, Luke had Jesus saying, “those blessed these servants the ones there , who having come , this master he will find waking . truly I speak to your souls because he will gird kai he will lay down their souls , kai having passed by , he will serve their souls .” The word translating as “blessed” can also mean “to be envied” and “happy.” It should not be read as if “blessed” is some state of favor that makes a soul in the flesh better than any other human being on earth. It is a statement of personal value felt, which does not project outward upon anyone else. A “blessed” soul does not greet a lost soul by saying, “Hello. I am blessed by God.” This is because “those blessed” are the “servants” or “slaves” to Yahweh, going out to others as their “slaves,” attempting to lead them to salvation.

To further explain this “blessed” state of being, Jesus then said it is only because of Yahweh’s Spirit and the soul of His Son “having come.” The “happiness” is from becoming a willing servant to Yahweh and a personal Lord within. The Lord within (Jesus) will become the “master” of the “slave,” who will find a state of “awakening,” versus a state of sleep. An “awake” state means rising to the light of truth and being vigilant at all times.

Following a period mark, Jesus then began a new statement that spoke the truth, saying, “I speak to your souls because he will gird”. This refers to Yahweh “girding the loins” of physical desire to sin. Once that external influence is removed, then Jesus’ soul can “speak” the truth to “your souls.” With desires “girded,” it is important to realize that one’s soul has been “laid down” or “reclined,” which is the opposite of “awakening.” To “lay down souls,” a soul has to submit fully to Yahweh and do His bidding, as a wife submits to her Husband. This is the meaning of “dying” of self, which has to be the first step towards eternal salvation.

Following a comma mark of separation and Luke writing the word “kai,” we find Jesus saying “parelthōn,” which is a form of the verb meaning “to pass by,” implying in usage “to render void, become vain, neglect, and disregard.” Here, again, Jesus is clarifying the “souls to be laid down” by saying this is akin to the Passover, where the blood of the lamb (the soul of Jesus upon one’s doorframe – a host soul and its body) will spare a soul, which has “become vain” to attempt to regain self-control. Once Yahweh has seen this self-sacrifice and a soul becoming His servant, following the guidance of His Son’s soul, then Yahweh will become the servant “of their souls.”

In verse thirty-eight, Luke began with the word “kai,” denoting importance must be found in this verse. That importance is found in Jesus saying, “within to this to second”. This must be equated to the meaning of the name Ephraim, which means “Doubly Fruitful.” The term “second” has been assumed by the NRSV translators to mean the “second time” of night, which is midnight. This has nothing to do with a translation that sees the Greek word “en” and meaning “within,” where the proper intent of this word states “the condition (state) in which something operates from the inside (within).” (HELPS Word-studies) The meaning “within” is then reference to the soul, so “to this” is moved from one soul ruling a body of flesh “to a second,” which is the soul of Jesus resurrected. This is important to grasp.

Following this statement about “a second,” Luke wrote the contracted word “kan,” which combines the word “kai” with the word “ean,” stating “and if.” When the presence of “kai” is seen as a marker of importance, then this becomes an important state of the conditional, where Jesus said, “if within to this to third to guard he should come”. When the Greek word for “guard” (“phylakē”) is read as “watch,” one can mistake the need for a “watch” to be to “guard” the sleeping citizens of a city or walled town. When “third” is realized to be the Trinity stated ordinally, “the third” is the Spirit” of Yahweh, with Jesus and a host soul being the other two spirits combined as one. This is conditional, as not all souls are so divinely possessed by Yahweh’s Spirit and the soul of His Son, where “he comes” to protect one’s soul.

Luke then added another “kai” which adds importance to “him coming,” with Jesus saying, “he finds”. This becomes importance relative to a seeker soul, which submits fully to Yahweh, continuously contacting Him in prayer. A seeker soul knows his or her own guilt and the necessity to seriously petition Yahweh for help. When one sends out these signals, Yahweh will “find them,” as He will be keeping “watch” over all souls. Yahweh will hear those prayers, know the commitment offered and “find” those in need of help to rescue.

Jesus then ended this verse by saying, “blessed are these!” Here, again, is the word “makarioi,” meaning “blessed, happy, to be envied.” It was last written to begin verse thirty-seven; and, it does not mean a saved soul is special. It is expected that a soul seek Yahweh and return to His fold. In return, Yahweh seeks those lost souls that call out to him, as lost sheep would to their shepherd. Thus, it is the personal “happiness” that defines this state that is “blessed.” It means a lost soul has indeed been found.

In verse thirty-nine, Luke began with a capitalized “Touto,” which is a divinely elevated “This.” As such, Jesus was referring to that previously stated about being “blessed,” because Yahweh has married one’s soul and the soul of His Son has been resurrected within one’s soul. Jesus then added to “This,” “now you souls know”, which is a statement that one has gone beyond belief and thinking what is necessary for a soul’s salvation, to a state of clear “knowing” from faith.

Jesus then added after Luke placed a comma mark of separation, “because if he had perceived this master of a house to what hour this thief he is to come , ( he had been vigilant ) not it , ( kai ) he had allowed having broken through this dwelling of his soul .” You will note how two words are placed within parentheses, which means those words are spiritually read, as silent indications of intent. This states the conditional of “if,” where the opposite condition would be the ”guard” and “watch” of the Trinity – a “second” and a “third” along with the soul in its flesh. To use the excuse that one can ‘play with fire’ and not commit to marriage to Yahweh and being led away from sin to a life of righteous ministry, is to meet the condition of thinking one can predict the future, knowing when death will come and a soul will be judged by Yahweh. The scenario asks, “If you know when a thief will come to steal your soul [Satan], then one would “not” have left his ”dwelling” unguarded, while one slept in sin. That “not” means the soul will be stolen, because evil ways have long before “broken into one’s dwelling” (one’s soul and flesh), stealing “his soul.”

In the final verse of this reading selection, Luke began verse forty with another use of “kai,” denoting that following is important to grasp. There, Jesus said, “your souls you are born prepared ; because to this to hour not you have an opinion , this Son of this of mankind he comes .” Here, the analogy of one’s soul “dwelling” in its body of flesh cannot possibly stay “vigilant” and “watch” over his or her own safety twenty-four hours of every day. Sleep is a natural limitation on a body of flesh; so, it cannot stay awake forever. The soul can; but when the soul is alone to follow the lead of its flesh, it dies figuratively when the body sleeps, incapable of guarding itself from demonic theft. Thus, the important element to know, towards salvation of the soul, is “your souls are born prepared.” That means a soul is eternal, as from the spiritual realm of Yahweh, where all is representative of the light of day and being watchful. When a soul is placed in a body of flesh at birth, it comes from a vigilant state into a limited state that cannot “guard” the soul from thieves. Thus, a soul knows from birth the need to seek Yahweh’s help in this regard of the limitations of the flesh.

Following a semi-colon, Luke had Jesus begin a separate statement that is relative to the importance of knowing a “soul is born prepared” to receive Yahweh’s Spirit and His Son’s soul. This is then explained to be “because to this” limitation of the flesh, which could die or could begin to send urges to sin to the soul, attracting demon spirits to marry the soul, the brain (the source of all “opinion”) does “not know” the difference between right and wrong. It only knows self-satisfaction. Thereby, when death does come, the brain will never have figured out when there was a dire need to change and become vigilant through self-sacrifice to Yahweh.

Jesus then said “this,” which is a soul in its flesh inabilities to gain salvation naturally, without divine union, calls for the soul’s need to be reborn as the “Son” of Yahweh. This spiritual presence within one’s soul will then be the possession by Yahweh “of this of mankind.” When a soul has made the sacrifices that offer his or her soul to Yahweh fully and unconditionally, the “he comes.” This means Yahweh’s Spirit cleanses a soul of all past sins and then immediately is where the soul of Jesus is resurrected, becoming the Lord over one’s flesh. This allows the soul to “come” back to Yahweh’s holy realm after death, as Jesus will lead them in ministry the rest of their natural lives.

It is important to give Yahweh the credit for being the Creator of all lesser gods-spirits-souls-and angels. Yahweh created His Son Adam in the divine place named Eden (along with his wife we like to call Eve), for the express purpose to save every soul released by Yahweh, at physical birth into a body of flesh, because those souls have been prepared to return to His realm. Because there are countless soul released by Yahweh – including the soul of physical Jesus – ALL OF THEM can potentially become married to Yahweh and receive the soul of his Son Adam-Jesus. Jesus was born with this perfect soul merged with his human soul; and, Yahweh has the power and ability to fill many souls with the soul of Jesus, whether Jesus was living in the flesh or not. Jesus did not have to die for his disciples to have received the soul of Jesus to guide them (temporarily). This power of Yahweh must be understood.

Isaiah 5:1-7 – When a good vineyard goes bad

December 26, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[1] Let me sing for my beloved my love-song concerning his vineyard:

My beloved had a vineyard on a very fertile hill.

[2] He dug it and cleared it of stones, and planted it with choice vines;

he built a watchtower in the midst of it, and hewed out a wine vat in it;

he expected it to yield grapes, but it yielded wild grapes.

[3] And now, inhabitants of Jerusalem and people of Judah,

judge between me and my vineyard.

[4] What more was there to do for my vineyard that I have not done in it?

When I expected it to yield grapes, why did it yield wild grapes?

[5] And now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard.

I will remove its hedge, and it shall be devoured;

I will break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down.

[6] I will make it a waste; it shall not be pruned or hoed, and it shall be overgrown with briers and thorns;

I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it.

[7] For the vineyard of Yahweh of hosts is the house of Israel,

and the people of Judah are his pleasant planting;

he expected justice, but saw bloodshed;

righteousness, but heard a cry! ס

——————–

In verse one there are three words that translated as “beloved” – “lî·ḏî·ḏî” (written twice) and “dō·w·ḏî.” Not only does this make this son about the “beloved” of Yahweh, these verses are a song dedicated to the “beloved” and his “vineyard.” One must understand that the “beloved” of Yahweh is His Son, Adam-Jesus. The Yahweh elohim that is the soul of Adam-Jesus is the love of Yahweh. For any soul born into human flesh to know the love of God, that soul has to become merged with the Yahweh elohim that is Adam-Jesus, becoming the Son of Yahweh reborn.

Because Jesus had not yet been born (although the name will always mean “Yah Saves” or “Yah Will Save”) and because Jerusalem, Judah and Israel are named, the focus of line one should be on the Saint whose soul was married to Yahweh, becoming the embodiment of Adam-Jesus. That historic figure is David, a name that means “Beloved.” Thus, Adam-Jesus was resurrected in the flesh that was Anointed by the Spirit of Yahweh; and, David led the people to live up to the names that mean “Teaching Peace” (“Jerusalem”), “Let Him Be Praised,” and “Who Retains Yahweh elohim.” The vineyard was then the “fruitfulness” of common people being led to marry their souls to Yahweh, becoming His Son reborn, as a nation of Saints.

In verse two, the key term to focus on is the “tower built in the middle of the vineyard.” The “choice vines” are the children of Israel, led to the Promised Land by Moses. The “tower” is then the greatest leader in Israel’s history – David. David was the only king chosen by Yahweh that would prepare the “vineyard” to bring forth choice fruit. When we then read “it brought forth wild grapes,” this says the kings that would follow David would lead the people’s souls away from marriage to Yahweh. They would serve human kings and foreign queens, with foreign priests, not Yahweh. None of the people would become the Son of Yahweh resurrected within their souls.

Verse three is then Yahweh singing through Isaiah’s pen, asking politely for the “inhabitants of Jerusalem” and “the men of Judah” to “judge between me and my vineyard.” Here, the meaning behind the names refers to those leading the Temple in Jerusalem as “those dwelling for Teaching Peace.” It then includes the “kings the Let Him Be Praised,” who follow the guidance of prophets, such as Isaiah. Yahweh even said “please” (“nā”), in “prayer,” as His way of asking them to choose to be His good fruit – raised by His Son – or wild grapes – raised by worldly demon spirits.

Verse four only asks one question, even though the NRSV breaks the verse into two. It is Yahweh asking through his prophet Isaiah, “What more could have been done in the preparation of this divine vineyard, expecting only good fruit to come but yielding instead wild grapes?” This asks why a Beloved king was given to the people – at the people’s request – who taught even soul in flesh how to marry his and her soul to Yahweh and be the good fruit of Yahweh’s Son resurrected, why then would the children of those Saints not also be raised to be Saints? The answer can only be to send lightning bolts from heaven to strike dead all the corrupt kings and heathen queens and false priests, to put the fear of God in all the people to comply and be a good grape. However, that would defeat the purpose of good fruit.

Verse five instead offers the solution to tear everything down and start all over again. Rather than lightning bolts to destroy the kings, queens and false priests, the people too must be included in this redo. The people have been raised to be wild grapes; so, they cannot possibly change and become good fruit be fear and force. This has to be seen as the foreseen coming destruction of Judah and Jerusalem by the Babylonians. They would be the contractors who would burn down the hedges and break down the walls, so the people could be trampled (into wild grape wine?).

Verse six then says the destruction of the vineyard will not include a renewal project, where more choice vines are brought in to replace the uprooted choice vines that became overrun by fallen stakes in the ground, so they cross-bred with wild vines growing on the ground. Instead, Yahweh will let the destroyed vineyard become a place where briars and thorns grow prominently. Then, Yahweh will command the clouds to give forth no rain. The vineyard will be turned into a barren wilderness.

Verse seven then sings that there will never be a vineyard of Yahweh that accepts less than good fruit. When this is seen as metaphor for souls that are rewarded with eternal life in the Spiritual realm of Yahweh, then those who still bears the sins of ‘wild grapes’ will not be allowed in. The “vineyard of Yahweh of the spiritual souls of heaven enter into the house of those Who Retain Yahweh elohim.” Only those who have been reborn as the Son of Yahweh can earn eternal life. The “men of Judah” – or the “priests reborn in the name of Jesus who Let Yahweh Be Praised” – are those who gain entrance into the eternal realm of salvation because they “plant” the seeds of “righteousness” on the barren land, where lost sheep roam in need of spiritual food and living waters. Those souls who gain entrance into the spiritual realm are those who first seek all who “cry out for help,” as they go to them as Jesus – Yahweh’s Savior.

Psalm 80:1-2, 8-18 – The good vine of Israel

December 26, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

1 Hear, O Shepherd of Israel, leading Joseph like a flock; *

shine forth, you that are enthroned upon the cherubim.

2 In the presence of Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh, *

stir up your strength and come to help us.

—–

8 You have brought a vine out of Egypt; *

you cast out the nations people and planted it.

9 You prepared the ground for it; *

it took root and filled the land.

10 The mountains were covered by its shadow *

and the towering cedar trees by its boughs.

11 You stretched out its tendrils to the Sea *

and its branches to the River.

12 Why have you broken down its wall, *

so that all who pass by pluck off its grapes?

13 The wild boar of the forest has ravaged it, *

and the beasts of the field have grazed upon it.

14 Turn now, elohim of hosts, look down from heaven; behold and tend this vine; *

[15] preserve what your right hand has planted.

15 [16] They burn it with fire like rubbish; *

at the rebuke of your countenance let them perish.

16 [17] Let your hand be upon the man of your right hand, *

the son of man you have made so strong for yourself.

17 [18] And so will we never turn away from you; *

give us life, that we may call upon your Name.

18 [19] Restore us, Yahweh elohim of hosts; *

show the light of your countenance, and we shall be saved.

Unread, but stated in verse one is David’s announcement this is a psalm of Asaph, which is Hebrew for a Gatherer. As a priest of Yahweh, purified by the Anointment of His Spirit and possessed by the resurrected soul of Yahweh’s Son – Adam-Jesus – David was the “Gatherer” of souls that would be taught to marry their souls to Yahweh also and become His Sons reborn. This makes David’ Psalm 80 be a statement of him being a tower in the midst of the vineyard, as Yahweh sang through Isaiah in the Track 1 Old Testament reading selection.

In verse one (that read aloud), David wrote “shepherd of Israel,” with a vertical bar following that, indicating a point of rest and reflection. When “Israel” is understood to mean “Who Retains el,” where “el” is the Yahweh elohim that is the Son of Yahweh’s soul resurrected within all who can truly claim the name “Israel,” then it is Adam-Jesus who is this “shepherd” – or the one who “pastures” Yahweh’s flock.

The name “Joseph” means “Increaser” or “May He Add,” which is an indication that the “shepherd” is the one gathering the people (the “flock”), so they can “hear” and “listen” to the teachings of the “gatherer.” This then will “increase” the flock, just as David transformed the nation that demanded a king and chose Saul into true representations of “Israel.” David, as the Son of Yahweh reborn, was the “shepherd of Israel,” who led by example and taught through his psalms the Spirit of Yahweh, which invited bridesmaids to offer their souls to Him.

When verse one ends by singing of “the cherubim shine forth,” this says the “Increaser” has placed the souls of the true Israelites atop the Ark of the Covenant, where those marriage vows are sealed within the walls of their hearts [inner men]. The presence of Yahweh is between those “Increased” Spiritually, so each becomes the “shepherd” reborn, to teach their children to marry their souls to Yahweh.

When verse two then begins by singing, “before Ephraim,” this too has a vertical bar after it, forcing the reader to pause and reflect on that meaning. The first Hebrew written – “lip̄·nê” – means “face,” as a construct of “panim.” This says that those who “shine forth” as the Sons of Yahweh will wear only the “face” of Yahweh “before” their own “face.” This states the first Commandment, which is locked within the walls of their souls. The name “Ephraim” then must be understood to mean “Doubly Fruitful,” where the duality states the presence of Adam-Jesus’ soul within each true Israelite’s soul. Two souls existing in one body of flesh represents a most divine possession, with the soul of Adam-Jesus becoming the Lord over each host soul and its flesh. This must be grasped in verse two.

The name “Benjamin” means “Son Of The Right Hand,” with Manasseh meaning “Forgetting, Evaporating.” This then makes verse two sing, “face twofold ׀ Son of the Right Hand Forgetting , it awakens your strength , and it comes to save us .” This says each true “Israel” has the soul of Adam-Jesus as its Lord, with the host soul “forgetting” or “evaporating” so that divine soul is welcomed as Lord. When the soul of Adam-Jesus is one’s Lord, then all the strength of Yahweh is at his command in one’s flesh. This was how David defeated Goliath, evaded Saul, and led a people to righteous ways for decades. Each soul became “awake” as vigilant and on guard against evil. These ways of righteousness will then “save our souls” eternally, with the name “Jesus” meaning “Yah Saves.”

Psalm 80 is the companion to Isaiah 1 because the selected verses read above sign of the same vineyard theme. When Yahweh inspired David to sing of “a vine out of Egypt” in verse eight, this is the same as Yahweh singing through Isaiah about “choice vines that would bear good fruit.” When David wrote, “you have brought , you have cast out the people and planted (the vineyard),” this is the same as Yahweh singing through Isaiah about “he dug it and cleared it of stones, and planted it with choice vines.”

The meaning of David singing in verse nine, “your prepared for it ; and caused it to take deep root”, is the promise made with Abram that his inheritors would be as countless as the stars. The “preparation” was the role model that was Abram, who would teach his son Isaac to marry his soul to Yahweh and be the resurrection of His Son Adam-Jesus. The root that was Isaac split when Esau was the firstborn male, who would be choked off from being a root that would weaken a “choice vine” and make ot less strong. Even the twin root that was Jacob had to be ‘struck by lightning,’ so it would do as Abram and Isaac, transforming to the root of Israel. This preparation would then require the son of Jacob (thought to have been killed by wild animals – Joseph) to spend the time like a tower in the vineyard that was in Egypt, developing the vine towards Yahweh’s demands of “choice.” It would then be the ‘children of Israel’ (not Jacob) that would be led by Moses to be supplanted in a prepared new land.

In verses ten and eleven, Yahweh inspired David to sing of the spread of the vines that bore good fruit, with them being spread to the sea to the river and as mighty as cedar tree branches. This is the people brought into Canaan by Joshua, who told them all to serve Yahweh like he was committed to do, or serve some lesser gods. The choice was to be a fallen vine that laid on the ground, or one that was raised by the cross of Adam-Jesus’ soul, which would serve Yahweh as His Son reborn.

Verses twelve and thirteen then are a vision shown to David, which was a mirror image of the times of Isaiah (and all times soul fail to serve Yahweh and become His Son resurrected Doubly Fruitful). Here, David sang of the hedges being trampled down and the wild boar consuming the fruit, in the same way that Yahweh sang through Isaiah: “I will remove its hedge, and it shall be devoured; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down.” This state can be seen as existing when Saul proved to be a false king of the people and David the Beloved hero was hunted like a wild animal. David would not be caught, because he was protected divinely.

In verses fourteen and fifteen, David sang of a prayer for restoration, through repentance, where the “elohim of hosts would return” to the people’s hearts and souls. This would happen when David became the King of Israel, after Saul and his heir were dead. David would unit the kingdom and remove all the fallen stakes in the vineyard. However, David was mortal; and, all mortals are bound to die. This means it is up to the fruit of the vine to return the “elohim of hosts,” so the vine remains upright and bearing good fruit. The advent of Christianity, after Yahweh sent Jesus into the vineyard that had again become downtrodden and wasted, would be like a new tower built in the vineyard.

Verse sixteen sings of that returned state of destruction. That is parallel to Yahweh singing through Isaiah about letting the vineyard be destroyed and allowed to turn to briars and thorns, followed by a desert without rainfall.

Verse seventeen then is Yahweh inspiring David to foresee the coming of Jesus, who would Yahweh’s “hand upon the man of His right hand.” Not only would Jesus be this single “man,” but his death would release his soul to be reborn into each and ever “son of Adam” that would be a Saint in the name of Jesus. Again, the name “Jesus” means “Yah Saves.”

Verse eighteen then sings of a return of soul to marrying Yahweh, as that is the meaning of David singing, “and upon your name we will call.” One calls upon the “name” of Yahweh by taking on His “name” in marriage, as a wife-soul divinely wed. That divine union then leads to the immediate resurrection of His Son’s soul in his wife-soul, so Ephraim is reborn. One will then be led into ministry in “the name of Jesus,” as the Son of Yahweh reborn.

Verse nineteen then acts as a prayer of repentance, seeking “restoration,” so a lost soul can wear “the face of Yahweh elohim – the Adam-Jesus soul that reflects the face of God. With that divine soul within, a host soul then “shines” the light of truth that comes from one’s inner Lord. This “shine” can then be seen depicted in art as a halo over the head of a Saint.

Jeremiah 23:23-29 – Lying prophets just dreaming they are gods

December 26, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[23] haelohe nearby, says Yahweh, and not elohe far off? [24] Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them? says Yahweh. Do I not fill heaven and earth? says Yahweh. [25] I have heard what the prophets have said who prophesy lies in my name, saying, “I have dreamed, I have dreamed!” [26] How long? Will the hearts of the prophets ever turn back– those who prophesy lies, and who prophesy the deceit of their own heart? [27] They plan to make my people forget my name by their dreams that they tell one another, just as their ancestors forgot my name for Baal. [28] Let the prophet who has a dream tell the dream, but let the one who has my word speak my word faithfully. What has straw in common with wheat? says Yahweh. [29] Is not my word like fire, says the Yahweh, and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?

——————–

These seven verses are taken from the middle of Jeremiah’s chapter twenty-three. According to my main study source – BibleHub Interlinear – the first eight verses are headed “David’s Righteous Branch,” with verses nine through thirty-two headed “Lying Prophets.” These verse come under that heading; but, there are fifteen verse leading up to these seven, with three more following them. One verse that I would like to add to this commentary is verse seventeen.

The Hebrew written is this: “’ō·mə·rîm ’ā·mō·wr lim·na·’ă·ṣay , dib·ber Yah·weh , šā·lō·wm yih·yeh lā·ḵem ; wə·ḵōl hō·lêḵ biš·ri·rūṯ lib·bōw ’ā·mə·rū , lō-ṯā·ḇō·w ‘ă·lê·ḵem rā·‘āh .” This literally translates into English saying, “them saying say to those with contempt for me , has said Yahweh , peace you will have to you all ; and all walking according to the stubbornness of his own mind them saying , not will come upon you evil .”

In this, it should be noted that in Jeremiah 23 there are many times that Jeremiah wrote, “says Yahweh,” either as “nə·’um-Yah·weh” or “ā·mar Yah·weh.” This means Yahweh spoke through His prophet Jeremiah; but in this verse, where Jeremiah wrote “dib·ber Yah·weh,” he is referencing that said by ‘lying prophets and lying priests,” who (like the truthful Jeremiah) were expected to tell the people what Yahweh said. Here, Yahweh exposes those liars as “those (priests and prophets) saying (their divinely led inspirations) say to those (the people they lead) with contempt for me.” This means the liars do not believe in Yahweh, such that their seeing Yahweh as a worthless entity means they speak for Him, not believing He truly exists – because He never speaks to them, when they have told the people they are priests and prophets. Thus, the liars announce their lies as, “has said Yahweh.”

The lie that Yahweh here points out through Jeremiah is that which says the false priests and false prophets begins with the promise that says, “peace you will have to you all.” In that, “peace” (“shalom”) means “completeness, soundness, and welfare,” as the true meaning to “peace.” The meaning of “completeness” refers to the souls of those who are married to Yahweh and have become His Son reborn, so the “completeness and soundness” that comes to the souls is a return to be one with Yahweh – from whom they came. Birth into the worldly realm makes one incomplete or not whole, until those soul find the path that leads them to marry Yahweh and divinely unite with Him again. The lying priests and lying prophets do not understand that written in Scripture; so, they make things up to suit their needs.

The lesson the liars then preach is this: “No evil will come to you.” This is based solely on those of Judah, especially the leaders in Jerusalem, think they were born to eternal life, because their forefathers were true Israelites – those “Who Retained an inner Yahweh elohim.” This promise said all the people could do no wrong. The liars spoke that promise, with “all walking according to the stubbornness of his own mind.” That says their apparent sins could be excused as the right of God’s children to do as they please, as long as they confessed belief in God. Therein lies the lie that permeates all times, including in today’s branches of Christianity, where false priests take their lead from lying educators and lying organizational leaders, who all are “walking according to the stubbornness of their own minds.” To be led by a Big (lying) Brain and not a soul married to Yahweh, with Jesus as one’s Lord means there are a whole lot of people running around saying, “If Jesus were alive today, I am sure he would agree with my forgiveness of every sin under the sun, especially those I personally practice.”

There are nine use of the Hebrew letter samekh (“ס”), which appears singularly at the end of a run of verses. The seven verses selected for reading above begin after a “ס” and end with a “ס.” The final verses – thirty through forty – end with a samekh, meaning there are eight used to divide the first twenty-nine verses. A samekh is written at the end of a series of verses to denote the end of an important set of verses. These seven above are then the climax set of five sets of verses, with one verse (15) a subset, denoted by it ending with the letter peh (“פ”). Verse fifteen has Yahweh telling those like Jeremiah (true prophets and priests who stand because Yahweh raises them to speak for Him), the liars using His name will be “fed wormwood and made to drink the water of gall.” They are identified as “the prophets of Jerusalem” who “send forth profaneness (or pollution) into all the land.” The use of “פ” says shut up and do not say a word, as silence to ponder the meaning of “wormwood” and “water of gall” means they will be denied all spiritual food and everlasting waters.

In the seven verses, verse twenty-three begins by repeating use of “elohim,” in the form “elohe.” The word “elohim” alone must be seen as a statement of eternal spirits, gods, angels, and/or demons, as without an identification of Yahweh (as a “Yahweh elohim”) a soul equates to “elohe.” A soul is eternal and the natural lord over its body of flesh, from birth until death, unless possessed by another eternal deity made by Yahweh for the Creation. The literal translation says, “the elohe near at hand I says Yahweh ; and not elohe distant .” This then says the soul of the Son of Yahweh resurrected within a true prophet or true priest is then an extension of the hand of Yahweh in the flesh. Jeremiah was one such example. However, any soul that keeps the Son’s “elohe distant” or “far away” will be either self-important as a soul playing god or a soul possessed by a demon spirit (led by Satan). The implied question from these statements asks, who is speaking in the name of Yahweh? Is it a true prophet or true priest? Or, is it a liar?

Verse twenty-four is then accurately translated above, as it is Yahweh asking the same question Adam and Eve found out the answer to, after they had sinned in Eden. There can be no hiding from Yahweh, as there is no place where his is “secret.” The illusion of secrecy comes when one’s back has turned to Yahweh, so one can no longer see Him or feel His presence watching over one’s soul. The element of Yahweh asking, “do I not fill heaven and earth?” must be understood as metaphor for “soul” [“heaven”] and “flesh [“earth”]. Yahweh sent each and every “soul” (an eternal spirit, thus heavenly) into its body of flesh (prechosen as the “earth” a “soul” would fill); so, would He not know everything that would take place afterwards in the combination of that soul in its flesh?

In verse twenty-five Jeremiah wrote of Yahweh saying, “I have heard , what they have said the prophets who prophesy in my name lies saying , I dreamed I dreamed .” When we find the first-person construct repeated, where “I” says nothing about Yahweh, this says the liars are self-concerned. Whereas Jeremiah wrote so many times – in this chapter alone – “says Yahweh,” to say, “I have dreamed” or “I dreamed,” the “I” says Yahweh had nothing to do with their dreams. They saw figments of their imagination, while playing gods.

In verse twenty-six, Yahweh asked through Jeremiah, “how long will exist in the inner man (or mind, heart, will) of the prophets prophesying lies ?” In the use of “bə·lêḇ,” a construct of “leb,” the ‘heart-mind-inner man-will must be read as intending to ask about “how long will their souls exist?” As “prophets prophesying lies,” the damage done to their souls will be everlasting, with punishment due. Then, Yahweh repeated a construct of “leb,” asking, “and indeed the prophets of the treachery of their own hearts (souls) ?” This says these liars will bring about their own condemnations.

Verse twenty-seven is a very important statement that most assuredly applies to the liars that have permeated the various denominations of Christianity, since the Great Schism. The translation above puts it rather clear, as Yahweh saying through Jeremiah that the liars would: “plan to make my people forget my name by their dreams that they tell one another, just as their ancestors forgot my name for Baal.” The literal translation says, “those thinking , to make forget my people my name , by their dreams , that they will count everyone his neighbor ; which they forgot their fathers my name for Ba’al .” This needs an in-depth breakdown analysis.

First, the focus is placed on “thinking,” which is a product of the brain, not the soul led by Yahweh’s Spirit. Big Brain syndrome is a fatal disease to the soul. Then, Yahweh says those Big Brains will plot, “to make forgotten my people my name.” The misconception made by a Big Brain is “my people” are Jews (the remnant name for the captive people of Judah and Jerusalem). Yahweh’s “people” are those souls in human flesh (“people”) who have married Yahweh, receiving His Spirit and joined with the soul of His Son (Adam-Jesus). The “name” is “Yahweh,” not anything lesser (such as “the Lord”). In the same way that the lost Jews of Judah and Jerusalem would cease calling Yahweh by His “name,” allowing for foreign gods that all were demon philosophies under Satan, as generic “baals” (a word meaning “lord”), the liars of today’s churches memorize English translation that replace “Yahweh” with “the Lord” (a.k.a. “the Baal”). To know the ”name” of Yahweh, one has to be a soul married to Him, as His wife-soul, who takes on her Husband’s “name” in divine marriage. A fully devoted wife-soul never forgets the “name” Yahweh.

When Yahweh then say, “by their dreams,” here again is an imagination that comes from the death of mortal sleep. The liars have fanciful imaginations that “think” their bad translations speak the truth to them; so, they can manipulate those bad translations (remembering all the forms of “elohim” and “adonay” are all shown in English translations as an interchangeable “God,” equal to “the Lord”) to fit their hidden agendas. Unfortunately, Yahweh already said, “He can see you plotting and preparing your lies in your hidden secret places, because Yahweh sees all and everything.” Only fools “think” they can get by with lying in Yahweh’s “name,” with their only excuse being, “I do not believe there is a God. Only fools believe in God; so, let me get rich lying to fools who do believe in God and believe I can speak for God and Jesus.”

When Yahweh then say one of their lies will be to define “everyone to be counted as one’s neighbor,” just look at how many lying priests and church organization leaders have turned their buildings into gathering places for political indoctrination. Illegal immigration brings people of mixed faiths together, with priests today claiming all are God’s children. Those are lies, which are based on their wild imaginations. Not once has anyone truly talked with Yahweh and heard His instruct a true prophet to allow those who hate you and want to destroy your religious beliefs into your midst. You love an enemy by allowing that enemy to live afar from you. Absence makes the heart grow fonder; and, fonder means the release of hatred. Bringing oil and water together – two elements that do not mix – will only find conflict and eventual separation. The true meaning of a “neighbor” is one’s soul being joined with the soul of Yahweh’s Son, who is “elohe near at hand, not elohe far away.” The soul of Yahweh’s Son is the only “neighbor” a true prophet is told to always love as oneself.

When the last segment of verse twenty-eight says, “which they forgot their fathers my name for Ba’al,” this element of physical lineage rejects those who mistake the meaning of “my people” as being a bloodline of Jews. Physical “fathers” that long before rejected Yahweh and worshipped Baals (read 1 Kings 18:20-40, which tells of Elijah against the 450 priests of Baal allowed into the Northern Kingdom by Ahab and Jezebel). The destruction of Israel and Judah speaks loudly of the fruit produced by the “fathers” who “forgot” the “name” Yahweh, choosing to worship dead gods (gods of the dead). As far as the Jews of today are concerned, in a 2000 census questionnaire, less than 50% who identified as “Jewish” said they “believed in God.” Those descendants of those physical “fathers” still have “forgotten the name” Yahweh as their God. They prefer the baals of politics, media influence, and the philosophy that thinks money buys everyone as their idols of worship.

Verse twenty-eight is then Yahweh saying through Jeremiah, “the prophet who has a dream let him tell a dream , and who my word he has let him speak my word faithfully ; what is the chaff to the wheat ?” This becomes reminiscent to the girl possessed to tell the truth, as an oracle who could not control her insights that came to her by “elohe.” Because her possessing spirit was not conducive towards leading lost souls to marry Yahweh, Paul cast out that spirit, leading to a legal dispute with the profiteers and businessmen of Macedonia (worshippers of baals). This says there are “prophets” – a word that also translates as “a spokesman, speaker” – that are just as belief-worthy as financial forecasters, who ‘foresee’ certain stocks to be on the rise, in the future. Those are “dreams,” based on Big Brain “thinking,” which may or may not come true, with everyone knowing those “dreams” of the future are like weather forecasting – liable to change.

This places “dreams” under the category of “best laid plans of mice and men.” Buyer beware. On the other hand, a true prophet of Yahweh will speak the truth of Yahweh, as Yahweh instructed him or her to speak it. They do so “faithfully,” having no idea what the future hold. They only know what they are told to say. The comparison is the chaff is useless stuff that protects the truth from being destroyed as it develops. Once fully developed, the “wheat” becomes spiritual food the seeking souls must have to gain everlasting life. All the lies of pretend prophecies must be blow away with the wind.

In the last verse of this reading selection (ending with a samekh), Yahweh asked through Jeremiah, “is not like my word like a fire ?” This means for a true prophet, to hear the “word” of Yahweh causes a burning desire to speak that “word” so others can hear it. The “word” of Yahweh is not for personal gain, designed to be kept under covers. It is “like a fire” in the way it spreads the truth so the truth cannot be ignored. This then led to the follow-up comparison, “like a hammer breaks in pieces the rock”. The “rock” is metaphor for a “stronghold” or “fortress” that is a wall built of stone, designed to keep enemies out. The “hammer” is then the strength that cannot be kept from “breaking to pieces” that which resists the truth. Each verse of Scripture is then a single “hammer” that “breaks apart” the lies that misconstrue the truth of that verse. Yahweh is the source of the truth that a prophet exposes. That exposure comes blow after blow and breaks apart the wall that imprisons the soul of Yahweh’s lost sheep.

This reading must be seen as a Track 2 alternative to the Track 1 Old Testament reading from Isaiah, where Yahweh exposed His “vineyard” had become overrun with wild grape vines. Those bad fruit are the equivalent to the lying prophets and lying priests who forget Yahweh and worship Baals. The lesson in the Isaiah reading was Yahweh will not replant the vineyard. He will let the liars choke the life out of a nation of people, so they would never again be the ‘children of Israel.’ They will have fallen on the ground and become wild grape vines, no longer choice. The result was to let everything turn to thorns and briars, which will become a wasteland void of replenishing waters from Yahweh (living waters). This means the only way to become a true child of Yahweh is to marry one’s soul to His Spirit and become the resurrection within one’s soul of the soul of Yahweh’s Son. All true prophets will be Jesus reborn. All who will be the good fruit of the true vine will be true prophets, called Saints. One soul at a time will be saved in His name, with “Jesus” meaning “Yah Saves.”

Psalm 82 – Being a guiding light to keep souls off the rocks

December 26, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

1 elohim takes his stand in the council of heaven congregation el; *

he gives judgment in the midst of elohim:

2 “How long will you judge unjustly, *

and show favor to the wicked? selah

3 Save the weak and the orphan; *

defend the humble and needy;

4 Rescue the weak and the poor; *

deliver them from the power of the wicked.

5 They do not know, neither do they understand; they go about in darkness; *

all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6 Now I say to you, ‘You are elohim, *

and all of you children sons of elyown;

7 Nevertheless, you shall die like mortals, *

and fall like any prince.'”

8 Arise, elohim, and rule the earth, *

for you shall take all nations for your own.

——————–

Not stated in this reading is the information stated first in verse one that says this is a “psalm of Asaph,” where the Hebrew word “asaph” means “gatherer.” In total, David wrote twelve psalms that were identified as “psalms of the gatherer.” Last Sunday, when Psalm 50 was sung, that is one of the twelve identified as a “psalm of the gatherer.” On this Sunday, the Track 1 accompanying Psalm 80 is another of those twelve. Now, as the companion psalm to the Track 2 Old Testament selection from Jeremiah 23, we read of another “psalm of the gatherer.” In the ordinary season after Pentecost, when souls should have become married to Yahweh’s Spirit, resurrecting the soul of His Son within each of their souls, the purpose now must be seen as ministry, where other lost souls are gathered, so they too can be saved by that divine union and commitment to Yahweh, as His Son reborn.

In verse one, the NRSV has translated “ba·‘ă·ḏaṯ-’êl” as saying, “council of heaven.” That misses the point of this being a “psalm of the gathered,” such that “council of heaven” conjures up visions of a bunch of high hat popes gathering in some Mediterranean Sea resort, in order to plan their trip to heaven. The literal translation says “in the congregation of el,” where the singular “el” is a statement of a collective of souls married to Yahweh, having received His Spirit, along with the resurrection of His “elohim” Son, so that “gathered” is a “congregation” of souls all devoted totally to one “god,” whose name is Yahweh.

Before David wrote of the “congregation of Yahweh elohim,” he began by singing, “elohim,” which is actually connected to the introduction that fully says, “a psalm of the gatherer elohim.” This says David was possessed by Yahweh, as His wife-soul, which had joined with the soul of Adam-Jesus, becoming his Lord. It was then through the presence of David’s Yahweh elohim soul that David acted as the minister who “gathered” the souls of the people who followed David. Just as Jesus told his disciples, “Follow me,” so too did David (as Jesus reborn) tell his disciples the same thing. The instruction was not to do what I command as king, but to marry your souls to Yahweh, in the same way that I have. Thus, the “gatherer elohim” had led the people to truly be a “congregation of el” – each a single soul married to Yahweh and reborn as His Son – which is the only way a nation of people can become sacred and set apart by Yahweh.

The ending words of verse one then says, “among elohim he judges.” This says that the “congregation of el,” where every one of the people could truly become named “Israel” – he and she “Who Retains el” as Yahweh’s wife-soul – had Yahweh “among” them, through His Son’s soul elohim, which became the Lord of each and every one, so Yahweh and Jesus “judged” their lives so they lived righteously.

This state of being is not a guarantee to last forever, simply because flesh can only live for so long, before it dies and releases a soul to the reward of eternal life. It is then up to those “gathered in congregations of el” to raise children – each who is given a soul of its own to rule its flesh – so those children’s souls also make the same decision as their parents, to marry Yahweh, receive His Spirit and be souls resurrected with the soul of Adam-Jesus to Lord them to righteousness. That caveat is then why verse two sings, “until when you will judge unjustly , and your faces to the wicked , show partiality .” This says the “congregation of el” will only be possessed by the divine “elohim” of Yahweh (His Son) after a divine union and commitment of total subjection to Yahweh. The souls of the children will invariably be led to be possessed by lesser “elohim,” who are not a “congregation of el.” Instead, those souls will “judge unjustly” towards Yahweh, choosing to marry their souls to Satan’s demons of sin. The Hebrew word “ū·p̄ə·nê” has been translated above (NRSV) as “show favorably,” when the word is rooted in “panim,” meaning “faces.” Those souls judging unjustly will show “faces” worn that serve lesser gods. Those lesser gods worship sinful things of the world, not spiritual commitments for eternal life.

When those children then rise to positions of power, after their Yahweh elohim possessed parents die in the flesh, then those corrupted souls will rule over the people as “gatherers” of those who allow sins, showing “partiality” to worldly ways. David ended this verse by singing, “selah,” which means “exalted” or “to lift up.” This says Yahweh has deemed this way as natural; and, that means one must know sins before one can truly subject to Yahweh from repentance and be saved from one’s unjust judgments and partiality to wickedness.

In verse three, it is easy to hear David sing, “defend the poor and the fatherless” or (NRSV) “save the weak and the orphaned,” but the words written actually mean “govern the needy and the fatherless.” When one has just heard a verse singing about wickedness and bad judgment, the aspect of “govern” has nothing to do with physical laws forcing one’s will on others. The “wicked” do that. This means “govern” is a statement of spiritual guidance to those soul that are spiritually “weak” and “poor.” Those souls are “fatherless” or “orphaned” from Yahweh – the Spiritual Father of His Sons reborn – and “needy” in the sense of being lost soul without eternal salvation gained. This is then a verse singing about the objective of ministry, born into souls who have the Son of Yahweh as their Lord. Thus, the ending words of this verse say, “to the afflicted and those in need do righteousness.” This means to be shining examples of those who had sinned and had then been saved, who were led to righteousness by a divine inner Lord.

Verse four sings of the responsibility of those saved souls, as David wrote: “they will escape the poor and needy ; from the hand of the wicked they will be delivered .” Here, their ministry and leading by examples, teaching the truth of Scripture, those who will have become spiritually “poor and needy” will have sought the truth and heard it from a minister in the name of Adam-Jesus, the Sons of Yahweh reborn. By receiving the truth and seeing the truth for themselves, those lost souls will be returned to the fold and become true Israelites – souls “Who Retain the el of Yahweh.”

In verse five, David sings of the inability for any lost soul to save itself from eternal condemnation. The literal translation sings, “not do they know,” with a vertical bar (“׀”) placed as a signal to stop and contemplate the brains ability to think of ways to save a self-soul. With that contemplation made, the rest of the verse sings, “not do they understand , in darkness they walk about ; they are shaken , all the foundations of the earth .” In this, the “foundations of the earth” should be read as metaphor for “all the leaders of the flesh,” who are the souls breathed out from Yahweh into every living creature. Those who rise to the top tier in civilization, as kings and queens, high priests and priests, who lead the masses, “they do not know” anything of value that will save a soul.

For as much as they have figured out how to cheat and steal from those who allow them power and influence, they cannot save their own souls, much less the souls of anyone else. They read Scripture, but “they do not understand” the truth it contains. This is because their Big Brains “walk about in the darkness” that is rejection of divine marriage to Yahweh, so His Son can come and lead them to true knowledge and a life of righteousness from that. This “darkness” is how they sense “they do not know” how to save their own souls, “nor do they understand” how to approach Yahweh with repentance. All of the “foundations” of a physical world cannot lead a brain to understanding the truth. Only true ministers reborn as Adam-Jesus can bring that divine knowledge forth.

In verse six, David sang about this source of divine knowledge, which he knew firsthand from the experience of having had Yahweh’s Spirit poured out upon his soul. David was inspired to write his psalms by this Spirit of truth within him. It spoke to him, singing “I speak elohim you many ; and sons of elyown all of you .” In this, David wrote “elohim,” which refers to the Yahweh elohim that is the soul of Yahweh’s handmade Son – Adam (a.k.a. Jesus – “Yah Saves”). The Hebrew word “elyown” is typically read as “Most High,” as a reference to Yahweh, as “God.” The reality (the truth) of “elyown” is the “highest” a soul in the flesh can achieve is to become merged (the resurrection within one’s soul) with the Son of Yahweh – receive the Spirit of a Yahweh elohim. The plural number of “elohim” (plural of “el”) then means Yahweh made His Son’s soul (the elohim of Adam-Jesus) to multiply and merge with the souls of many wife-souls that marry Yahweh and receive His Spirit (as did David). Those man then become the multiplicity of one Son of Yahweh, as the “sons of elyown.” All are “sons” because the spiritual realm is the masculinity of Yahweh – the Father – and His Son. Thus, males and females will have the “foundations of their flesh shaken,” realizing both sons and daughters of physical fathers and mothers all have souls born only of Yahweh. All the “children” of Yahweh as His sons reborn in their eternal souls.

Verse seven then sings the truth of the reason it is souls, not flesh, that is saved. David was inspired to sing, “surely like Adam you will die ; and like one of the princes you will fall .” This says that the “most high” – the “elyown” handmade by Yahweh, as His Yahweh elohim made to become the “highest” of two souls merged together in one body of flesh – a true Ephraim, being Doubly Fruitful – the physical fall of Adam (and Eve) from Eden was to become the same as those who possessed souls Yahweh’s Son would save. Adam (and Jesus like him) had to die in the flesh, even though both were born (or made by the hand of Yahweh) as eternal heroes – THE Saint soul. Thus, every soul who repents and sincerely does the work of Yahweh, rejecting the influences of the worldly domain, they will receive the Spirit upon their souls and their flesh will be reborn as the “prince” of Yahweh – His “elyown” resurrected in the flesh of a wife-soul. Even those “princes” must face death of their flesh, as did Adam and Jesus. Still, the presence of that “elyown” as e “elohim” within a human being, that soul-body will serve the remainder of his or her life as a Saint, taking the message of Yahweh’s truth out into the world, so lost seeker souls can be found.

As a psalm of the gatherer, this Psalm 82 ends with this lesson taught to those gathered to become as David was, not as one lost and rejecting marriage to Yahweh. David sings, “arise elohim govern the flesh ; for you will be taken as a possession to all of the people .” Here, the command says to “stand up” through the power of Yahweh’s “elohim” that has been poured out upon one’s soul, for the purpose of not only “governing” that single soul-flesh, but to “govern” all who need divine guidance to see the truth of Scripture for themselves. When the Hebrew word “nachal” (in transliterated construct as “ṯin·ḥal”) is translated as “inherit,” one misses the truth of the word meaning “to get or take as a possession.” This means to “inherit” the kingdom of God, a soul does not need to be born a Jew. Instead, a soul must become “possessed” by Yahweh, as His wife, who then is where His Son’s soul is resurrected. That “arising” within one’s soul becomes the “inheritance” that a Saint take to “the people,” so all seekers can get their share of the “inheritance” Yahweh promised to His “sons.”

Hebrews 11:29-12:2 – True faith in Jesus

December 26, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

[29] By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as if it were dry land, but when the Egyptians attempted to do so they were drowned. [30] By faith the walls of Jericho fell after they had been encircled for seven days. [31] By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had received the spies in peace.

[32] And what more should I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets—[33] who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions, [34] quenched raging fire, escaped the edge of the sword, won strength out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight. [35] Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, refusing to accept release, in order to obtain a better resurrection. [36] Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment. [37] They were stoned to death, they were sawn in two, they were killed by the sword; they went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, persecuted, tormented—[38] of whom the world was not worthy. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and in caves and holes in the ground.

[39] Yet all these, though they were commended for their faith, did not receive what was promised, [40] since God had provided something better so that they would not, apart from us, be made perfect.

—–

[1] Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, [2] looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.

——————–

This past Sunday, the Epistle reading was from this same chapter in Paul’s letter written in Hebrew. The focus of his eleventh chapter is “Faith.” My main resource for the Greek and English possibilities in translation is BibleHub Interlinear. That site lists headings for the various verses, denoting where focus changes can be found. Verses one through three are headed “Faith is Being Sure.” Verses four through seven are headed “The Faith of Abel, Enoch, Noah.” Verse eight through nineteen are headed “The Faith of Abraham.” Verses twenty through twenty-two are headed “The Faith of Isaac, Jacob, Joseph.” The verses from twenty-three through thirty (the last two in today’s reading) are headed “The Faith of Moses.” The verses thirty-one through the end of the chapter – verse forty – are headed “The Faith of Many.” Simply from these headings, it must be grasped that “Faith” is only applied (by Paul here) to the Patriarchs, who led to Abraham and then those who can rightfully claim spiritual lineage to him; and, this includes the “Many” that BibleHub Interlinear says verses thirty-one through forty place focus on. The “Many” is not the same as “the masses,” in the same way that “faith” is not the same as belief.

In verses twenty-nine and thirty, Paul used the plural pronoun “they” to denote those of true “faith” that crossed the Red Sea. It was also those of true “faith” that caused the walls of Jericho to collapse. Neither of those events had anything to do with human beings having become super heroes because they had listened to Moses or Joshua give a power-sermon, designed the fill them with so much enthusiasm (based on belief in the storyteller) that they overachieved greatly. The focus says every human being that followed Moses and Joshua were themselves just like Moses and Joshua, as spiritual descendants of Abraham. Their “faith” was due to them having become married spiritually to Yahweh, received His Spirit, and were the resurrections of His Son’s soul as Lord over their souls, so their “faith” was based on the Yahweh elohim within their souls. When Paul said the Egyptians attempted to cross the Red Sea but died, it was because of their lack of “faith” in Yahweh, even though their eyes say wimpy Jacobites crossing safely and believed, “If they can do it, so can we.”

In verse thirty-one, Paul mentions a woman of Jericho who assisted the spies sent by Joshua. When Jericho fell, her house was marked by a red cord around her doorframe, in the same way the Israelites were spare Yahweh’s Passover of death to the firstborn. This says Rahab was marked by Yahweh as a soul that was His. Her “faith” was not based on fearing anyone. It was based on love of Yahweh and questioning the religion of those leading Jericho. She can then be said to be the first of the converts from pagan philosophies to those who were souls descended from the absolute “faith” of Abram-Abraham.

In verse thirty-two, Paul continued quickly, naming in succession “Gideon, Barak, Sampson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets” as all being souls married to Yahweh (as Judges, the one true King of Israel, and those souls sent in their flesh to save the lost under bad leaders). Those names each had sacrificed their souls to do the will of Yahweh (study His Word), receive His Spirit, and give rebirth to His Son, the Lord of each’s soul-flesh. In between those named, Paul left out a vast number of people who lived in the lands entered by Joshua. Joshua brought with him only souls who were just like him in devotion to Yahweh; and, David would be the only king to have the same spiritual effect on the people he led.

Verses thirty-three and thirty-four speak of the victories that were known and credited to certain peoples; but all victories were due to Yahweh. The lesson of the Day of Midian” says Yahweh does not need the strongest, the best trained, or the meanest soldiers, and He certainly does not need many human souls (one was plenty several times) to defeat evil and its supporters. This says Yahweh could destroy evil at will; but the purpose of evil is to test the “faith” of those who serve Yahweh totally. Victory is more important to their eternal reward, than it is to a momentary battle won. Evil can only exist on the material plane. The true victory is to gain entrance into the eternal life realm with Yahweh.

Verse thirty-five is confusing when it is read as saying, “Women received their dead by resurrection.” The reference is not to “women” but to “wives,” as the meaning of “gynaikes” allows. When “wives” is read and understood to be the state of being that a soul born into a body of flesh is spiritually, all souls in the flesh are called upon to becomes the bridesmaids of Yahweh. All who pass the test of commitment will then become Yahweh’s “wives.” It is then those “wives” that Paul said, “they Received” (from a capitalized “Elabon”), which is the Anointment of Yahweh’s Spirit, which made those souls in the flesh (regardless of human gender) all become His “wives from out of of resurrection” (from “ex anastaseōs”), with the Genitive case stating divine possession in “of resurrection.” The possession is divine union between the Spirit and a soul, with “of resurrection” being the rebirth of Yahweh’s Son – Adam-Jesus within the wife-soul. This “resurrection” then allows Jesus to become Lord over their soul-flesh, such that their submission to Yahweh is in essence the “death of their souls” (from “nekrous autōn”). While “women” are included in this transformation, they are not exclusive as the “wives” of Yahweh,

When verse thirty-six begins by saying “others,” this is actually furthering the “resurrection” stated in verse thirty-five. The Greek word “heteroi” is the Nominative Masculine Plural form of “heteros,” meaning “other,” implying in usage “(a) of two: another, a second, (b) other, different, (c) one’s neighbor.” (Strong’s) This says the “resurrection” is then the divine soul of Yahweh’s Son – Adam-Jesus – being “resurrected” within a host soul, becoming one of two souls in the same body of flesh. The divine soul of Yahweh’s Son then becomes the Lord over that soul-flesh, which is the “resurrection” of the soul of Jesus in true Christians. When this is understood, the statements in verse thirty-six about “mockings, scourgings, trials, chains and imprisonment” were the “tortures” coming to the “wives” that were “of two.” This also says “one’s neighbor” that Jesus told his disciples to love like themselves was his soul, which he knew would possess them and become their spiritual Lord.

In verse thirty-seven, after Paul wrote of “stonings,” before he wrote of being “sawn in two,” he wrote in parentheses “epeirasthēsan,” meaning “they were tried,” with “tried” being the “proofing” and “testing” metal is put through, by fire. The root word “peirazó” means “to make proof of, to attempt, test, tempt,” where the implication means “to put to the test.” This word is not translated because Paul placed it within parentheses, which is a signal that says read this word spiritually, not physically. Thus, the “testing” was both applied by angry Jews and Roman to “test” the “faith” of Christians, while those “tests” listed by Paul were the “proof” that their “faith” was not led by a fleshy brain and its thoughts of reason, but by the ‘Ephraim’ that joined with their souls, making each be ‘Doubly Fruitful’ for Yahweh.

In verse thirty-eight, Paul wrote, “of whom not existed worthy this world,” which says those martyrs each died while possessed and protected by the soul of Jesus, the Son of Yahweh. He was the one deemed “not worthy this world,” so Jesus was persecuted to death over and over again, each time in a new body of flesh. Still, the soul of Jesus remains alive and well, found in those void of moisture and “wandering” as seekers. The soul of Jesus climbs the “mountains” and enters “caves,” seeking those whose soul is heading to a “hole in the earth” (a grave), unless they find a Saint in the name of Jesus to lead them to the altar of divine marriage.

When Paul then wrote in verse thirty-nine: “Kai these all , them having been commended on account of of this of faith , not did receive the promise .” This refers back to the beginning of chapter eleven and is the covenant made with Abram that promised his descendants would be as numerous as the countless stars of light. All who are the resurrection of the soul of Jesus are descended from Abram, who was the first of his kind – Saints totally submissive to Yahweh and His Will. When Paul wrote in verse forty that God had something greater planned for all souls descended from Abram, it was eternal life, not a bloodline maintained on the material realm.

Whenever a chapter of Scripture ends and a new chapter begins, the focus is transitional. The same focus is not repeated, just like a lesson in school is one leading to the next. As such, the focus on “faith” is mentioned briefly by Paul in his second verse that Jesus is the source of all true “faith.” True “faith” is knowing the truth; and, with Jesus’ soul resurrected within the soul of a wife of Yahweh, one’s personal experiences of Jesus is the truth of “faith.” Therefore, Paul began a new chapter writing of the true source of strength within a soul in its flesh, which allows it to surmount all obstacles and challenged. One does not boldly run full-bore into the mess that is the world, brainly knowing one has “faith.” One rides on the back of Jesus as he leads one down the path of righteousness; and, every experience of oneself as Jesus reborn is what becomes “faith” known.

Luke 12:49-56 – Jesus explaining divine division to his disciples

December 26, 2025 R. T. Tippett Leave a comment

Jesus said, [49] “I came to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! [50] I have a baptism with which to be baptized, and what stress I am under until it is completed! [51] Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division! [52] From now on five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three; [53] they will be divided: father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”

[54] He also said to the crowds, “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you immediately say, `It is going to rain’; and so it happens. [55] And when you see the south wind blowing, you say, `There will be scorching heat’; and it happens. [56] You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time?”

——————–

It is important to get the context here, in order to understand who Jesus was talking to, before we read in verse 54 “He also said to the crowds.” Jesus was speaking to his disciple, after Peter asked him (in verse 41) to explain the parable he told to the crowd earlier – the Parable of the Rich Fool (the lesson of the prior Sunday, Proper 14 Year C).

In verse forty-nine, the first word written by Luke is a capitalized “Pyr,” which is a divinely elevated “Fire.” By reducing that to the lower case, the translation presented by the NRSV makes it seem that Jesus is going to strike a match and set something on “fire.” That is not the case. The word “pyr” is explained by HELPS Word-studies in this way: “In Scripture, fire is often used figuratively – like with the “fire of God” which transforms all it touches into light and likeness with itself.” Capitalization makes this most certainly be “fire of God,” as it applies to an assignment by Yahweh, given to His Son Jesus. Thus, the metaphor of “earth” is the ”flesh,” where the “fire of God” is the inner enlightenment of Yahweh’s truth, as found written in Scripture. When Jesus exclaimed, “how I wish it were already kindled,” this says Yahweh sent Jesus because of the lying leaders (false shepherds, hired hands, and souls possessed by lesser gods in leadership positions) were doing nothing to set the Jews on “Fire” with the truth of Yahweh.

When “Fire” is read in this light, verse fifty beginning with “baptism” is then furthering how Yahweh sent Jesus to kindle Spiritual “Fire.” It is through leading souls to desire in their hearts to marry Yahweh. Jesus is then the High Priest who would officiate that divine union of a soul to Yahweh’s Spirit. The Spirit is what pours out upon one’s soul, so the “baptism” Jesus brings is the “Christ” – a word meaning Spiritual “Anointment” [not the last name of Jesus] – and to make lost souls become a Christ requires a wife-soul of Yahweh become also united with the soul of His Son – Jesus.

Here, the NRSV has struggled with the Greek word “synechomai,” which is the first-person singular Present Indicative form of “sunechó,” where one usage [Passive] has it mean “I am afflicted with (sickness).” This has them have Jesus say he is “distressed,” as if he has “stress” waiting for all the Jews to wade in the water of the Jordan (or some other stream) and be dunked by Jesus (such tiring word!). However, the truth is (beyond Jesus was not “stressed” doing the work given him by Yahweh) the word also means in usage: “(a) I press together, close, (b) I press on every side, confine, (c) I hold fast, (d) I urge, impel.” (Strong’s Usage) This says the “baptism” brought by Jesus to ignite a “Fire” of desire for Yahweh, so he can officiate that wedding ceremony (the Christ Anointment), is then he can “press together” his soul with the wife-soul of Yahweh, becoming that soul’s Lord. Jesus will spiritually become one’s neighbor and will hold fast to their desires of the flesh, so they do not sin. Jesus will “impel” them to walk righteously and deny urges to sin.

When verse fifty-one is translated so it says, “Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division!” the question should be, “Wait a minute! Why is division necessarily a bad thing; and, why would it be opposite of peace?” The answer is the Greek word “eirēnēn” is translated as the ambiguous “peace,” when in truth it means “properly, wholeness, i.e. when all essential parts are joined together; peace (God’s gift of wholeness).” (HELPS Word-studies) When Jesus would enter the closed room and tell the souls of his disciples, “Peace” (a capitalized version), the meaning then was their souls finally had the “Wholeness” of Jesus’ soul in union with each of their souls. Thus, to “Think” (a capitalized “Dokeite”) says each soul in its body of flesh was already a union of self – brainy flesh controlling a wimpy sinner-soul – which was refusing to deny the Big Brain and sacrifice self to serve Yahweh, out of love and total devotion, such that Yahweh sent Jesus to “divide” that union that led to ruin and replace false loves with true love – Jesus is the love of Yahweh.

In verse fifty-two, one must ask, “What is the significance of five; and, why is five divisible only by three plus two?” As to “five” (“pente”), this is said by HELPS Word-studies: “used in Scripture with added symbolic meaning (“redemption by grace”).” They add in brackets: “[This is derived from the collocations (associations) that “five” has when used in reference to the Tabernacle, Temple, etc.]” It should be seen how the Greek word “pente” is the core word of Pentecost, which is ten times five, or fifty (numbered in days). The fifth day of Creation was when Yahweh’s elohim made the fish of the sea and the birds of the sky, before making man (male and female) on day six. The number “five” is then like the stepping stone to a higher state of being. The number reflects the symbolism of innocence, like that of a child. When the spirituality of the number “five” is seen as one’s absolute submission to the parent influence, this becomes a reflection of the ”house” (from “oikō” – one’s body or tabernacle) that is “within one” (“en heni”), but for the child to grow, it must be “divided” beyond the “one.”

This division comes with maturity. The playtime of the “five” (the green fruit that must ripen) must seek the Trinity Spiritually (“three”), in order to find the promise of eternal salvation. That eternal salvation come when a soul (“one”) is “divided” so another soul is added, making “two” souls connect to the Father, as the Trinity (“three”). This seems so natural but the reality is the soul (“one”) will often join with a lesser spirit or demon (“two”), so that unholy union then fights against submission to the Trinity (“three”). Which ever way a soul (“one”) is “divided,” it will have to go “against” its own soul, either in self-sacrifice to Yahweh or self-sacrifice to a worldly spiritual possession.

When you understand the numbers used in verse fifty-two, then you can see the examples of the “three” and “two” are all related to “father against son,” “mother against daughter,” and “mother-in-law against daughter-in-law” (and vice versa). These are all “divisions” that must occur within the “one” spiritually, as a form of maturity. Certainly, the first is easiest, when read as “Father-Son,” as Yahweh and Jesus; but there is nothing “against” those two together. The Greek word “epi,” which does translate as “against,” also translates as “on, upon,” implying in usage “to, on the basis of, and at.” According to HELPS Word-studies, “The precise nuance of 1909 (epí) is only determined by the context, and by the grammatical case following it – i.e. genitive, dative, or accusative case.” In each to the words following “epi” a Dative case word is written, meaning the transitions of the pairs of relatives is “upon to,” as a transition from “one” to another “one.” Everything is then the maturity of a human, from child to adult and from adult to child.

While it is easy to see the masculinity of “they will be divided father upon to son,” with the two next sets of growth focusing on the feminine, all three sets must be seen as feminine, as a soul trapped in a body of flesh – in the worldly-material realm – is ‘negative-receptive-feminine,’ thus always in a state of change (from birth to death). A soul, being a spirit that is eternal, coming from Yahweh and always returning to His (for Judgment as to where next), is masculine; but this masculinity is only when either removed from the flesh or joined with the masculine soul of Jesus (the Son). The “mother upon [this] to daughter kai daughter upon this to mother” is not about a female human being, but about all human beings, which are all souls trapped within bodies of flesh. The call for “division” is to mature into one who sacrifices self in order to produce a new self in the flesh. Therefore, the addition of “in-law” reflects upon the willingness to sacrifice self to another in marriage. The “mother-in-law” is the “daughter” soul married to Yahweh, who in turn gives ‘birth’ (the resurrection of) His Son. The wife-soul has found out the reason divine marriage is necessary, as it is to become the Son of Yahweh reborn into new flesh – every time in every committed wife-soul.

Before proceeding to verse fifty-four, where Jesus turns back to the crowd to speak, it is important to recall that Jesus did not say this out of the blue. He explained the parable of the Rich Fool, who put off being “divided” and matured, “Thinking” he could do more work that would profit more things, before he would say, “Okay. I am ready to marry Yahweh now.” Yahweh told him how stupid that idea was, because his death and Judgment was happening then. When Peter asked to clarify the meaning, Jesus said all this about sacrificing oneself to Yahweh and being a brand new, walking and talking Jesus – NOW! – rather than piddle-paddle around, wasting valuable time. Jesus was there to ignite the “Fire” of desire for Yahweh, so souls would bow down at the altar of marriage and surrender their souls to His, as His wives, mothers-to-be to Jesus’ soul.

When we then read verse fifty-four, it has Jesus again looking at the crowd, which means the crowd most likely heard what Jesus told his disciples; but it is doubtful that anyone understood anything Jesus was saying, to either group. The disciples were all engaged to be married to Yahweh, and Jesus was the High Priest who would officiate their Spiritual Anointment, with his soul duplicated in eleven of the twelve (plus other followers of his, mostly family). The crowd was not yet so committed; so, Jesus spoke to them about how well they could see the future. The crowd was just as ignorant about what would happen next, so they were foolishly wasting their lives in the flesh by taking care of themselves, doing nothing to sacrifice and become Yahweh’s bridesmaids.

This is why Jesus said they could read the signs of nature and be fairly close as to what nature would bring. When he said, “you can see a cloud coming from the Mediterranean Sea and expect it to rain … kai it rains,” this is missing the deeper meaning of a spiritual dark cloud “rising up” over their souls, like the leaders of Jerusalem were. Luke capitalized the word “Ombros,” which elevates it to a level of Yahweh meaning, where “rain” is much less than the “Violent Storm” that comes from standing under that “cloud” that darkens their souls. Still, just as one can predict the rain coming (when it looks like rain, smells like rain, and feels like rain), one can equally predict the Judgment coming from being blind from the signals coming from the “cloud rising up” from the Temple.

When Jesus then said (in verse fifty-five), “kai when a south wind is blowing , you say because , Heat it will exist , kai it comes into being .” Certainly, this too sounds like one being able to forecast the weather and know when to water the grass and wear cool clothes. However, the deeper truth is a “south wind” is the ‘hot air’ blown through the lips of false shepherds and hired hands. When you feel that foul breath stinking up the Temple and synagogues, then you know “Burning Heat” (from a capitalized “Kausōn”) means those sermons are leading a soul to the depths of Hell. Be assured that end can be expected when death releases a soul for Judgment, if nothing has been done to avoid that “hot air” influencing one’s soul in the flesh. The importance of “it comes into being” means a demon soul “is born” within the soul of a lost lamb, due to the thieves who steal sheep from Yahweh’s sheepfold.

In verse fifty-six, Luke began with the word “hypocrites,” which means the crowd was all Jews, who all believed they were privileged and special, as God’s chosen people. They were the definition of “hypocrites,” because they all said they were Yahweh’s children, when everything they did was contrary to how a “son, daughter, father, mother, or in-laws” that were truly “divided” into the maturity of divine marriage did. When Jesus referred to the “the flesh kai the sky,” this is metaphor for the body and the soul, Discernment of the truth … coming from literature the Jews memorized, but did not understand … can only come when the soul of Jesus has been born into each of them. That time was then, as Jesus stood there physically among them; but they were all still too busy to give up their souls to someone unseen and be reborn as someone who was already born (like Nicodemus unable to understand being born again).

Jeremiah 1:4-10 – Another boy filled with the Spirit of Yahweh sent into ministry

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

[4] The word of Yahweh came to me saying,

[5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”

[6] Then I said, “Ah, adonay Yahweh! Truly I do not know how to speak, for I am only a boy.” פ

[7] But Yahweh said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am only a boy’; for you shall go to all to whom I send you, and you shall speak whatever I command you, [8] Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, says Yahweh.

[9] “Then Yahweh put out his hand and touched my mouth; and Yahweh said to me, “Now I have put my words in your mouth. [10] See, today I appoint you over nations and over kingdoms, to pluck up and to pull down, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.” פ

——————–

Here again is another story of Yahweh calling a prophet. We saw Him call Amos, Hosea, and Isaiah and now Jeremiah. While Yahweh came to some as visions, He came others as the Word. He came to Jeremiah when he was just a boy; and, this is how he came to David, as well as Samuel. When David went to Saul, as he and Israel trembled because of the threat of Goliath, David told him,

“Your servant has been keeping his father’s sheep. When a lion or a bear came and carried off a sheep from the flock, I went after it, struck it and rescued the sheep from its mouth. When it turned on me, I seized it by its hair, struck it and killed it. Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God. The Lord who rescued me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.” (1 Kings 17:34-37)

This is not because David was naturally strong and brave. It was because he too has voiced concerns about being so young – “I am only a boy” – but Yahweh told young David the same thing He told Jeremiah above. When Yahweh’s Spirit has been poured out upon one’s soul and that Spirit allows one to hear the voice of Yahweh speaking to one, then one’s soul has true faith that Yahweh is real and can defeat any foe. True faith, from personal experience of Yahweh’s Spirit and the voice of Yahweh within, through the soul of His Son one with one’s soul means no challenge is too big. No fears or concerns will need be expressed.

When Yahweh told Isaiah, in verse five, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations,” this says Jeremiah was like Jesus. He was sent into the world as a soul that had previously earned eternal life. The soul of Jeremiah had married Yahweh while in a prior body of flesh, going by a different name; and, his service to Yahweh – either by some unknown figure in the history of Judah and Israel, or as a famous prophet who served like Samuel, Nathan, or as a Judge – is unknown, but to be intuited. As for the name “Jeremiah,” it means “Yah Throws” or “Yah Loosens,” which can signify the reuse of a saved soul “thrown back into the fire” or “let loose upon the world,” as had been before.

In verse six, the NRSV translates “adonay Yahweh” as “Lord God.” This should make one wonder why they can make “Yahweh” translate as “the Lord,” while translating “elohim” as “God,” while also capitalizing “adonay” in the singular, as “Lord.” Both “elohim” and “adonay” are plural forms of “el” and “adon,” each meaning (in the lower-case) “gods” and “lords.” As I have explained many times before (read what I have written … pick any commentary), “elohim” is an eternal spirit-god-soul-angel, which can be of the world (usually a demon) or of the divine (from Yahweh). The meaning of “Yahweh elohim” is the creation of holy man (Adam) in Eden (along with holy woman, many call ‘Eve’). The prophets – all the central characters that serve Yahweh in all the Holy Bible – are souls born into human flesh, which have been merged with the soul of Adam – thus being divinely possessed by the Son of Yahweh’s soul. While that is the meaning of “elohim,” the meaning of “adonay” says that divine presence (even the demonic possessing “elohim”) becomes the “lords” over soul and body. So, what Jeremiah exclaimed in verse six is his inborn “lords,” sent by “Yahweh,” spoke out as Jeremiah’s soul, admitting his soul alone would not know what to say. The first-person “I” makes Jeremiah be yet aware of his inner “Lord” elohim of Yahweh.

On top of that, Jeremiah was saying he had not yet had time to memorize the entire Torah. He had most probably been putting in diligent study by that time in his young life; but he was still “just a youth.” His statement was telling Yahweh that he was not yet qualified to be a priest and lead others to the meaning of Scripture. This argument was said by Yahweh to not be a problem (in verse seven). Yahweh told Jeremiah that He would lead Jeremiah Spiritually, which does not require a Big Brain to figure out things.

When verse seven has Yahweh tell Jeremiah (paraphrasing some), “I will send you to where you will go and I will tell you what to say,” this is absolutely missing in today’s Christianity. If it is missing today, it was missing when Yahweh chose Jeremiah to be a prophet of His Word. I have heard a local Baptist minister say he was saved when he was under fifteen years of age. He has said several times in my listening, “I became a Christian then.” The problem with his assumption that a teenager (maybe pre-teen at twelve?) made (this Baptist minister) was to go to a seminary as a student sponsored by the Baptist Church. When he graduated from that learning experience, he was sent o under-developed nations (as far as the populace being a ‘Christian’ minority), by the Baptist Church. My wife (an Episcopal priest while alive) swore a pact with that Church organization, in particular to be obedient to the Bishop of her diocese; and, that is not being led by Yahweh to go where He leads and say what he says to say. Certainly one can calculate that Yahweh led both to go to seminaries and follow the lead of His guides to where they said go; but that is having two masters. Jesus said one cannot serve two masters. Jeremiah served only Yahweh.

In the NRSV translation above, verse eight says, “Do not be afraid of them.” In reality, the Hebrew text has written the word “third-person masculine plural construct, rooted in “panim,” where the word says, “of their faces.” This is a reference to the First Commandment (few fully understand it, due to poor translations), which says, ‘Thou shall not wear any face other than My face before me.” In that verse [Exodus 20:3], the last word written in Hebrew is “panaya,” which again is a construct rooted in “panim.” While it can also mean “before,” the point is the “face” stands out “before” one’s soul in the flesh. The “face” word is spiritual, not physical; so, one is expected to be a soul married to Yahweh and in that divine union be a bride that wears His “face before” one’s self, whenever one is in the presence of Yahweh. As a prophet or Saint, one is always in His presence; so, one’s soul always wears His “face,” as His wife (the meaning of “in the name of”). Thus, Yahweh instructed Jeremiah not to fear the “faces” of evil (self-egos of high title standing and pedigree in the religion of the children of Jacob), because they do not wear the “face’ of Yahweh and are worthless souls.

When Yahweh told Jeremiah, “for I am with you to deliver you,” that says Yahweh planned to send his prophet Jeremiah into the lion’s den to “face” evil leaders without fear. It says the soul of Jeremiah was promised safety; and, his known death (as a mortal body of flesh bound to die) would mean his soul would return again to serve Yahweh in the spiritual realm. This means Yahweh had no plans to go meet with the powerless and the misled and gossip about how the false leaders were taking the nation to ruin. Instead, he would confront the leaders and their priests and speak as Yahweh directly telling them where they were headed.

In the translation of verse nine, the NRSV misses a comma mark after hand, so the true translation says: “and put forth Yahweh his hand , and touched over my mouth .” This says that Jeremiah was “put forth” as the “hand” of Yahweh, another extension of Him in the flesh on the material plane. When Jeremiah was “put forth,” his “mouth” was “touched” from “above,” by Yahweh. The Hebrew preposition “‘al” means “upon, above, over.” (Strong’s) Thus, the “mouth” of Jeremiah was “touched” divinely and spiritually, with no physical hand reaching down from the sky to touch Jeremiah’s lips.

The remainder of verse nine is then Yahweh explaining what the word “al- pî” (“above my mouth”) means. Yahweh said, “behold! I have put my words in your mouth.” There can be no higher “words” than those spoken by Yahweh.

The same preposition “al” is then affixed to two words in verse ten, which state “above the people” and “above the kingdoms.” Yahweh said that His Word being “above the mouth” of Jeremiah made his spoken word as a prophet hold more weight than anything spoken by “the people” or the leaders (kings and priests) of the “kingdoms.” This same “above, over, upon” power that comes from the Word of Yahweh still applies today and at all times. This means when Yahweh puts His Word in the mouth of His prophets and Saints, sending them to the “people” and the “leaders” to tell them, “Yahweh says you are wrong and must repent immediately or face self-inflicted damnation,” the same expectations are found. The “people” and the “leaders” totally reject anyone who looks like Joe Schmo, who speaks the truth never heard spoken before. Jeremiah, like all prophets and Saints, have no fear of these wearing the “faces” of the worldly realm.

The “people” and the “leaders” of such ‘kingdoms as Church denominations (just like the Temple in Jerusalem and the Judeans – to be called Jews after captivity and release) are no different today. They have all sold their souls for a dollar and are to deep in spiritual debt to think about repenting and turning their backs on Satan’s lures. Still, the prophets and Saints are sent by Yahweh to “destroy” and to “cast down” false icons of worship. Yahweh is not found over the Ark of the Covenant anymore – the Covenant was long ago broken. Yahweh does not hang out in the Temple anymore – the curtain separating the Holy of Holies has been torn in half, from top to bottom. Yahweh also does not live in communion boxes where leftover industrial wafers and wine prayed over by hired hands. Yahweh only lives in the individual tabernacles that walk and talk in the name of Yahweh, like Jeremiah. Anything less that a soul married to Yahweh and sent to be His Son resurrected in the flesh will not do. They are the problem, not the solution.

Psalm 71:1-6 – A soul in Yahweh gives birth to His Son

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

1 In you, Yahweh, have I taken refuge; *

let me never be ashamed.

2 In your righteousness, deliver me and set me free; *

incline your ear to me and save me.

3 Be my strong rock, a castle to keep me safe; *

you are my crag and my stronghold.

4 Deliver me, elohay, from the hand of the wicked, *

from the clutches of the evildoer and the oppressor.

5 For you are my hope, adonay Yahweh, *

my confidence since I was young.

6 I have been sustained by you ever since I was born; from my mother’s womb you have been my strength; *

my praise shall be always of you.

It is clear to see how this Psalm 71 selection is the companion to the Track 1 Old Testament reading from Jeremiah 1, as both sing of being a youth whose soul was known by Yahweh to serve Him prior to birth. What is not so easy to see, due to the translation aborting “Yahweh” into “the Lord,” while making “adonay” be “the Lord,” followed by “Yahweh” translating as “God.” The use of “elohay” – a masculine plural construct of the singular “el” – is translated as “my God,” as if all three words are interchangeable and were written by some ignoramus. The uses of “elohay” and “adonay” are references to the possessing soul of Yahweh’s Son, who then becomes the twin soul that “lords” over one’s flesh.

In verse one, David sings of being “in Yahweh. This is a statement of submission of self, which relates to a divine marriage of David’s soul and the Spirit of Yahweh. David is not external to Yahweh, nor is Yahweh external to David. The two are one, with David’s soul “in Yahweh,” as His to control. This presence is then called “refuge.” Just as Yahweh would tell Jeremiah to have no fear, because He was with him, David sang of this presence “never bring him to shame.” In that, “shame” means sin.

In verse two, David sing that being “in Yahweh” brings his life to a state of “righteousness.” It is that “righteous” lifestyle that “delivers” him or saves his soul from the punishments of having unrepented sins. David “escapes” this Judgment because his “ear” is able to hear the voice of Yahweh. This voice leads David to wake from sleep, take down his harp and record the messages of Yahweh spoken to him spiritually.

Verse three speaks metaphorically about the “strength” the “refuge” within Yahweh is. It is a bond that can never be broken. That “strength” is then called “my elohim” (“elohay”), which is the presence of Yahweh’s Son’s soul within David’s soul. That comes from Yahweh as His gift of salvation (the name “Jesus” means “Yah Saves”); and, it is this possessing soul that is the Lord (his “adonay”) that keeps David from falling prey to the “wicked,” who are spirits and demons that seek to make David become a “cruel and unrighteous man.”

In verse five, David sings of Yahweh’s Son being his lifeline (or “cord”) that connects his soul to the Spirit of Yahweh. This connection is then stated by David as the “adonay Yahweh” that governs his every move in life. That presence took hold of David’s soul in his “youth” and it is his true source of faith, which is personally known and trusted.

In verse six, where David sings like Yahweh sang through Jeremiah, about being a soul known before entering his “mother’s womb,” the same references can be seen saying that the soul of David would likewise become a “mother’s womb,” in the resurrection of the soul of Adam-Jesus. This says the “Mother” must be a virgin, as far as sin is concerned. This implies that all “youths” possessed by Yahweh in divine marriage were so divinely wed before conception [Samuel, David, Jeremiah, John the baptizer and Jesus … minimally]. As such, once David’s soul was cleansed of all sins – made a virgin soul – his soul could become a divine mother where the Son of Yahweh could be reborn.

Isaiah 58:9b-14 – Understanding the Sabbath and taking delight in it

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

If you remove the yoke from among you, the pointing of the finger, the speaking of evil,

[10] if you offer your food to the hungry

and satisfy the needs of the afflicted,

then your light shall rise in the darkness

and your gloom be like the noonday.

[11] Yahweh will guide you continually,

and satisfy your needs in parched places, and make your bones strong;

and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water,

whose waters never fail.

[12] Your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt;

you shall raise up the foundations of many generations;

you shall be called the repairer of the breach,

the restorer of streets to live in.

[13] If you refrain from trampling the sabbath,

from pursuing your own interests on my holy day;

if you call the sabbath a delight

and the holy day of Yahweh honorable;

if you honor it, not going your own ways,

serving your own interests, or pursuing your own affairs;

[14] then you shall take delight in Yahweh,

and I will make you ride upon the heights of the earth;

I will feed you with the heritage of your ancestor Jacob,

for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken. ס

In verse nine, which is only the second half of the whole verse that is chosen for reading, the key term missed in translation is “from your midst,” which is the construct translation of “mit·tō·wḵ·ḵā” (from “tavek”). The NRSV translation of “among you” avoids this verse being Yahweh answering the call – pleas for help – from those in pain and suffering, telling them, “if you take away from your midst the yoke,” where the “yoke” denotes spiritual servitude to Yahweh, as his wife-soul. If you reject divine union with the Spirit of Yahweh, then you suffer. You “point fingers” at everyone but yourself as the cause of your woes. Without the “yoke” that is the soul of Yahweh’s Son (Adam-Jesus) controlling one’s actions [led to righteousness] as one’s Lord [an “adonay” of Yahweh], then pain and suffering can always be seen as self-inflicted.

Verse ten does not suggest that feeding the hungry with physical food wins any brownie points. Isaiah wrote, “and you extend to the hungry your soul,” where “the hungry” are seeking spiritual nourishment. This is why they would be crying out in pain, from suffering malnutrition of their souls, not they bellies. This is why Isaiah then was led to write about the “darkness” of despair that comes from being faced away from Yahweh and the “light” that comes when one extends the soul of Adam-Jesus from within one’s soul to within the soul of another. This is the truth of ministry in the name (either of Yahweh or Jesus) of a Messiah (or a Christ).

Verse eleven says Yahweh “will guide you” in this ministry. His presence within one’s soul never ends. All “droughts” of spiritual sustenance will be overflowing with His Spirit. Your body (or “bones”) and “soul” will be joined with His Spirit, which gives one strength and be like a well-cared for “garden.” The Spirit makes one like a “spring” of everlasting “waters,” like Jesus spoke of to the Samaritan woman at a well.

When we read in verse twelve: “Your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations,” that mistranslation again takes one’s mind and directs it to the physical, as if Yahweh wanted to replant the vineyard he said he would let go to waste (in last Sunday’s readings). This must be read in spiritual terms, as Yahweh speaking to the saved soul He would send into ministry. They would be washed clean of all past sins – “shall built from among you waste places” – so all that one had destroyed of self will be rebuilt as the Son of Yahweh reborn. These Saints will become the “foundations” upon which true salvation of souls comes [Jesus would fulfill this prophecy]. The “repairer of the breach” refers to the wall shown Amos, where the plumb line showed the wall of Mosaic Law was collapsing because of the neglect of the leaders. To read of “the restorer of streets to live in,” this speaks spiritually of the “return to a path” of righteousness that is the true meaning of being an Israelite. This becomes a way of life, not a religion to memorize and quote, while never living up to anything quoted.

In verse thirteen, twice Isaiah wrote of the “Sabbath” (“miš·šab·bāṯ” and “laš·šab·bāṯ”). The literal translation says, “if you turn away from the sabbath your foot , making your pleasure on day my sacredness and proclaim the sabbath a delight , the sacred Yahweh burdensome , and will bear him not doing your own ways , not finding your own delight nor speaking words .” From this, it becomes important to realize that the first six days of Creation lasted hundreds of millions of years; so, when Yahweh declared the Creation finished and told the “elohim” to cease what they had been doing in Yahweh’s name, the “sabbath” began only a few thousands of years ago. That means (relatively speaking) the Sabbath is every day, forever more. To be so restrictive to think Yahweh meant take one day out of every seven and deem that Yahweh’s “sacred day” is the problem. The Jews attempt to honor the twenty-four hours, but Christians love the god golf and limit the honoring of Yahweh to a couple of hours each week (if that). The “sabbath” is every day; so, to not serve Yahweh in seeing every day as His “delight” for one’s own soul and see the “sabbath” as when one must stop doing one’s own “delights” or “pleasures” on a day deemed the “sabbath” (Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, depending on the religions that serve man, not Yahweh) is not good in Yahweh’s ‘eyes.’

When one can grasp that Yahweh was not telling future readers of these verses of Isaiah that He would be tickled pink if Jews would spend a whole twenty-four hours every seven days holding off on doing their own “pleasures” and whipping themselves into obedience with the Law, instead expecting all to sacrifice their own self-pleasures and self-delights to take sheer delight in Yahweh’s lifestyle (that of a Saint), the verse fourteen makes much more sense. Here, Yahweh says when one’s soul “takes delight in Yahweh,” then one’s soul has divinely wed Yahweh. When He then says, “I will cause you to ride on the earth,” where the metaphor is the white horse Jesus will come within one’s soul, as one’s Lord over the flesh (metaphor of “earth”), this says Yahweh will send His Son’s soul to make you take great “delight” in that presence, because Jesus is the love of Yahweh. It is Jesus who will “feed” one’s soul with spiritual food. The Word of Yahweh will then be placed in one’s “mouth,” as the soul of Adam-Jesus will speak the truth for others to hear. The “heritage of Jacob” – a name meaning “Supplanter” – means Jesus will supplant one’s own soul-flesh, becoming the Lord that will lead one to be named “Israel” and be a minister for Yahweh as His prophet.
