"The most wonderful thing anyone can KNOW from the Scriptures ... (by JS, slight edit by dz)"


Shalom dear doves,

The FIRST verse of the Bible is one of the best ways
to help see the most wonderful thing anyone can KNOW
from the Scriptures ... TO KNOW Mashiach.

From the Hebrew Scriptures, the Tenach, it can be
clearly proved that Yeshua is the Mashiach. The Hebrew
Scriptures can in fact, prove that ONLY Yeshua could
possibly be Mashiach. From the Hebrew Scriptures it
can be proved that Mashiach will come to be seen and
heard by all those who would have eyes to see and ears
to hear upon this earth. From the Hebrew Scriptures it
may be proven that TODAY, if anyone would hear His
voice, and not harden their hearts, as in the day of
provocation, that anyone, Jew first, and also the
Gentiles, TODAY, can KNOW Mashiach PERSONALLY.

It can be proven from the Hebrew Scriptures that
Mashiach would come TWO times. He would come in His
First Advent as Mashiach ben Adam, the Son of Man, or
the Mashiach ben Joseph, the suffering servant. In His
First advent as Mashiach ben Joseph, He would be seen
as The Teacher, The Prophet of Deuteronomy 18, the
healer, and the suffering servant. His First Advent
would be as The Lamb of G-d, who did come just as
Abraham had prophesied, that HaShem would provide
Himself, a Lamb. It would be His Second Advent, where
the world would see The Mashiach as Mashiach ben
David, the conquering King of Kings, The Great King of
Glory, the Holy One of Israel.

Right in middle of the FIRST Verse of the Hebrew
Scriptures the fourth word of those seven Hebrew words
of Genesis 1:1 is the Aleph Tav. That fourth word of
the First Verse of Genesis, or Bereshith 1:1, is the
Aleph Tav. Moshe did NOT make it up. Moses did NOT
make a mistake. It is the rabbis who make a mistake
not KNOWING the Truth regarding the Aleph Tav. Yes,
those who do NOT recognize the Aleph Tav, or know
HaShem inspired every WORD of the Hebrew Scriptures,
are blind. How sad that so many Jewish people, unto
this day, when Moshe is preached, still do NOT see the
Aleph Tav, and do not recognize and KNOW their own
glorious Mashiach. It is sad how many Jews have been
taught that The Aleph Tav is just "et", or some little
nebulous non-essential conjunction. What, and more
importantly, Who IS the Aleph Tav, in the middle of
those seven words of that first verse of the Hebrew
Scriptures?

A very literal translation of the first verse of the
Hebrew Scriptures would be - In the beginning G-ds,
plural, Elohim, not El, not Eloah, but specifically
Aleph Tav created the heavens and the earth. Now it
would NOT be wise to knee jerk in taking offense, and
stop here. Before taking offense at that literal
translation of the First verse of the Hebrew
Scriptures, with that Aleph Tav, as the fourth word of
those seven Hebrew words, it would be wise to think
about the questions Solomon asked in Proverbs 30:4 -
Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who
hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound
the waters in a garment? who hath established all the
ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his
son's name, if thou canst tell? His Son's name is
Aleph Tav in Hebrew, or Alpha Omega in the Greek, the
FIRST and LAST letter of the alphabet, the Beginning
and the End, the I AM, Salvation, Yeshua, Who is BOTH
Creator and Redeemer. Psa 2:12 Kiss the Son, lest he
be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath
is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put
their trust in Him.

The prophet Micah said, the Mashiach, not only MUST be
born in Bethlehem, but that His goings forth are from
of old, from EVERLASTING. You see indeed He IS the I
AM, and we quite well should expect to see that Aleph
Tav as the fourth word, of the seven words, of the
FIRST verse of the Hebrew Scriptures.

The prophet Zechariah said a wonderful thing about
Mashiach and His kin in THIS time frame, the time
frame of the last days. He said it in Zec 12:10, where
in the Hebrew, one may also see the Aleph Tav clearly
written in the Hebrew of that verse as well. Zechariah
was given by the Lord to say, and the scribes
ACCURATELY recorded - And I will pour upon the house
of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the
spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall
look upon ME whom they have PIERCED, and they shall
mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and
shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in
bitterness for his firstborn. Yes, if you will look at
the Hebrew of that verse you will again find The Aleph
Tav. That pierced One whom they will look up to, is
The Aleph Tav.

Genesis 1:1 may be seen to contain, at the
interpretative level of the sod (secret, mystery,
deeper level of spiritual understanding beyond the
soul) the view that the pierced One will come 2
times-the first time about 4000 years after the
impartation of the breath of life into Adam as seen
with Aleph Tav the FOURTH word, and those who have
eyes to see ALEPH TAV in the Hebrew, also may see the
Aleph Tav in the SIXTH word, of those seven Hebrew
words making up Genesis 1:1. The Mashiach who is The
Aleph Tav will come again nearly 6000 years after the
impartation of the breath of life from HaShem into
Adam. Yes, it is there, you can see the second Aleph
Tav is the 6th Hebrew word in Genesis 1:1. The Fifth
Hebrew Word in that profound first verse of the
Scriptures is shamayim, meaning the heavens.

The Aleph Tav one should therefore know would be in
heaven between His First and Second Advents. He is
coming back to the earth, haEretz, the Seventh Hebrew
word of the first verse of the Scriptures. The seven
Hebrew words of the first verse of Scripture are like
the seven-branched Menorah. The fourth or center lamp
is the Aleph Tav, the Shamish, or Servant lamp from
which the other lamps are lit. The Aleph Tav is the
Servant of the Lord, Mashiach, who brought light, and
IS The Light of men. Two candles are lit on Sabbath,
regarding the Aleph Tav, who is to be seen as BOTH
Creator and Redeemer. Same light, TWO Candles for the
L-rd of Sabbath. And the light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. It is time ALL
see the Light of that Aleph Tav, in BOTH the Creative
and Redemptive work of The Mashiach, The Aleph Tav,
and understand why TWO candles are lighted on Shabbat.

The prophet Hosea is given by the L-rd to say in
5:15-6:2 - I will go and return to my place, till they
acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their
affliction they will seek me early. Come, and let us
return unto the L-RD: for he hath torn, and he will
heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
After two days will he revive us: in the third day he
will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. From
Psalm 90:4 and other places we may know, that with the
L-rd, a day is as a thousand years and a thousand
years as a day, for He IS the I AM, the One whose
goings forth have been from EVERLASTING. For a
thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when
it is past, and as a watch in the night.

ALL should know that the time of punishment for
REJECTING Mashiach in His First Advent, is 2000 years.
The prophet Hosea was given to clearly tell us that
Mashiach would return to His place in HaShem's third
heaven, until Israel REPENTS. Sadly, they have not yet
repented, in large part because of the gentile
persecution, very sadly often done in the name of
Jesus Christ. However, we do NOW have every reason to
believe that the time of Israel's National REPENTANCE
is at hand. Both Moshe and Hosea made it clear that
Israel's punishment for rejecting the Aleph Tav is
2000 years.

The Jewish book that Jews avoid more than any other is
Daniel. Here is why. Dan 9:24-27 Seventy weeks are
determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to
finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins,
and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring
in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the
vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Know
therefore and understand, that from the going forth of
the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto
the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and
threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built
again, and the wall, even in troublous times. And
after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut
off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince
that shall come shall destroy the city and the
sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood,
and unto the end of the war desolations are
determined. And he shall confirm the covenant with
many for one week: and in the midst of the week he
shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,
and for the overspreading of abominations he shall
make it desolate, even until the consummation, and
that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Seventy sevens, shabowa, seventy weeks of years, that
means 70x7 years, or a 490 year period of time was
decreed by HaShem RELATING TO JERUSALEM and BOTH the
First and Second advent of Meshiach. Like any time
period, it is measured from the beginning. The
beginning DECREED by HaShem was be marked by the
commandment of Artaxerxes I, in the 20th year of his
reign, in the year 454 BCE, issued the command to
rebuild and restore Jerusalem. The passage groups the
weeks in three parts: seven weeks (49 years),
sixty-two weeks (434 years), and one week (7 years).
The 49 years are associated with rebuilding Jerusalem
even in troublous times, and that 49 year period would
end in 405 BCE. That 49 year period would be marked by
the completion and dedication of the Second Temple,
AKA, Zerubbabel's, temple which Herod remodeled, and
Titus destroyed, in 70 CE.

The 434 years relate to the intervening time before a
cutting off of The Mashiach, the Aleph Tav, on
Passover, Wednesday, Nissan 14, when Meshiach ben
Joseph was sacrificed as the Lamb of HaShem of which
Abraham did prophecy.

The 7 years are connected with the period of a
covenant between a ruler, Rabin = Hebrew for "the many
ones" in verse 27, as the man who be signatory for
Israel, in this LAST DAYS, relating to the Second
Advent of Mashiach. Amazing how one may find in the
Hebrew RABIN, who would be the one to sign for Israel
that seven year covenant relating to Jerusalem. Sure
enough we have witnessed that covenant relating to
Jerusalem signed by Rabin, violated in the middle of
the 7 years.

What Jew would reject Daniel's credibility as a true
prophet of HaShem? Daniel was arguably greatest man in
history. Daniel was prime minister under 4 different
WORLD Emperors. If Daniel is a TRUE PROPHET, then it
is an inescapable reality that most Jews missed, and
have FAILED to recognize Mashiach, as surely as they
remain blind to the Aleph Tav. Daniel's prophecy,
EXPLICITLY, with NO WIGGLE ROOM, tells everyone that
Mashiach had to arrive BEFORE the destruction of the
second temple. Indeed that same Aleph Tav of whom
Zechariah 12:10 was PIERCED and appeared to be cut off
BEFORE the destruction of Jerusalem, BEFORE the Second
Temple was destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE. At that
time, sacrifices under the Old Covenant ceased. The
same dating has been the usual Jewish understanding
since Josephus. They focus on the destruction of the
Temple. We should see the first 69 weeks are
completed.

We should be alerted to the 70th week being confirmed
by 'Rab(im)' signing of the 7 year Covenant and
further confirmed by a shabat/rest (for 20 well
advertized months) of the sacrifcice and gifts of land
for peace, as per the terms of 'that' covenant 'with
Rab(im)'.

Hint, hint, hint ...

What could possibly be more Jewish than to KNOW the
Mashiach?

Shalom, shalom,

David
