Parasha B'reisheet: Day 7—Shabbat

B’reisheet/Genesis 1:1-6:8

Torah is the recorded substance of the oracle that YHVH Elohim gave to His creation of mankind, which corresponds to their original self-impertinence. The Torah, i.e. YHVH’s teachings and instructions, has always been a component of Who He is and was not just established because of man’s sinfulness. Initially, due to man’s choice to disobey resulting in a state of sinfulness, all of Torah has been revealed to man. It is especially ironic that the very sin that caused the fall of humanity was in direct defiance to the only commandment that Elohim spoke forth as a “do not” command. This particular commandment specifically involved a dietary issue. Elohim simply commanded His created likeness to “do not eat” of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, not something or a name easily forgotten. Today, this continues to be the very issue that so many believers stumble over when faced with the dilemma of what he believes he can or cannot eat as instructed in Vayikra/Leviticus 11 versus church dogma. Man’s rejection of the YHVH”s only revealed Word began a cycle that man could not interrupt. By eating of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, man chose to acquire knowledge over walking in the fear of YHVH. What he got in the exchange was the eventual revelation of what YHVH ordained as ALL that is good and ALL that is evil which every man must choose between in order to remain in the Creator’s presence.

Once this cycle of revelation was started, it could not be stopped. In a way, it was the beginning of the Covenant between the Creator and man. Through sin, the knowledge of good and evil was to be disclosed in a collective whole so that man would eventually understand both of what he abandoned along with the sacrificial consequences restoration would cost. The dissemination of information found in Torah is not just a rule book or the do’s and don’ts of what is expected of Israel. Yes, these elements consist in Torah, but so much more. Torah is the summation of the integrity of the Father’s knowledge, dissection and definition of what is good and what is evil; nevertheless it is even more. Torah is the revelation of Who YHVH is and the portrayal of His character. In this explanation, His creation is told how to obtain His favor through walking within the realm of the clean of heart and hands compared to how to be rejected by the Master due to rebellion, pride and stubbornness.

 

In the comprehensiveness of humanity inheriting the ingested fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, Torah is a Covenant written to His beloved that counteracts the poisoned effects of man’s defiance in the Garden. It is likened to the tender crook of YHVH‘s arm leading us back to Himself. It is the heart of the Creator courting His estranged creation as to the courting Husband to his betrothed (or would be betrothed) helpmate. The Hebraic term for this type of document is a ketubah which describes in detail the roles and responsibilities of both sides of the marriage. The ketubah is more than a marriage contract drawn up by a spiritual lawyer. It is a Covenant that was promised to be sealed by the blood of a perfect man and was fulfilled by Messiah. Like all covenants, it is perpetual and does not ever end. While contracts have beginnings and endings, covenants perpetually exist, are eternal and have no loop holes from which to escape. This is what man, specifically believers, fails to understand. Once the grace of Elohim has brought man into the knowledge of the Covenant, he is forever responsible to the choice he makes to either abide or reject that Covenant. If acceptance is established, the Covenant is bound to parties, i.e. YHVH and the believer. Torah is the standard by which both look to each other for their obligations to each one another. Furthermore, it is the standard from which judgment will be dispensed. The believer cannot choose to only honor portions of Torah. Like the sin in the Garden whereupon sin brought forth all the knowledge of good and evil defined in Torah, Covenant is established in all that knowledge that must be upheld. It becomes an issue of the heart.

 

Since man cannot accomplish righteousness through his own merit, the promised Messiah came to earth so that man could live through Him. He is the fulfillment of the Covenant and Torah as the Promised One that YHVH’s Ketubah described as a Prophet, the Rock, the Water, the Tree of Life and the One Who could keep and fulfill all the ramifications of the knowledge of good and evil, yet without sin.

 

Our objective in this Covenant has been defined. It is not new, nor is it burdensome. Yeshua carries the load and writes it on our hearts with His finger. It should be our desire to uphold our portion of the Ketubah in joy and anticipation of the Bridegroom returning for His bride. Our “I do” to Covenant relationship to YHVH binds us to the Ketubah as it has been bound to us in the form of the Living Word come to us. We are in Messiah and He is in us. This is a mysterious cycle of redemption, atonement, deliverance, love and adoration that is perpetual, like the Covenant itself. What we are to look like is Yeshua Who looks like what is described in Torah. As the Father looks at His own Word, He longs to see us delivered from the beggarly elements of this world and to be complete in His restoration to a place of recognition in what was created and placed into the Garden so long ago.

 

Dwell upon 2 Corinthians 3:17-18, “Now Elohim is the Ruach, and where the Ruach of Elohim is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of Elohim, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from Elohim, the Ruach.”

Parasha B'reisheet: Day 6

B'reisheet/Genesis 5:25-6:8

The sensational approach to teaching, preaching and selling the Word of Elohim has become a real racket. This is not a new accusation, but a rather old practice of over exaggerating the truth and trying to convince others of personal points-of-view and convictions. Sadly, many have turned to this practice in a sense of zealousness and the outcome is more like manipulation of both the facts and other people. This is not to say that Elohim is incapable of doing magnificent and marvelous signs, wonders and answers. Nevertheless, Elohim does use the physics He created and the laws of His abode govern all aspects of His realm and the earth alike.

It is man that has made such writings as the book of Enoch, commentary in the Talmud and speculations of larger than life "evangelists" to be more than stories or speculation. Man has ran with these fictitious notions that have been sprinkled with truth and created sensationalized doctrine. The mingling with Torah writings and belief with Greek mythology has not helped, either. In truth, this commingling is nothing less than the same sins committed by man's ancestors—they mingled the holiness of Elohim's creation with the earth's debasement.

Here are some subtle facts to ponder are: Elohim never mentions that angels can mate or multiply (the Jude 1:6 reference does not refer to angels committing acts of intimacy, but they abandoned their proper place before the throne of YHVH); Torah does not refer to Nephilim, Rephilim or the sons of Anak as anything more than giants and mentions nothing of demons; the sons of Elohim is stated as ben meaning sons, not demons, and daughters of men/adam are bat meaning daughter. This is stated to make some clear points while logically progressing where men in the days of Noach/Noah would have gone.

History is replete with psychotic men looking to manipulate the world and control all of mankind. In their delusions of grandeur, they have maimed, killed, perverted and sinned in every way imaginable and in others no one would ever want to know. The day's of Noach were so exceedingly bad that Elohim sorry he had even created man and was grieved because of him. Again, the Creator was grieved due to man's existence, not demons, fallen angels or their follies. A more recent foray into world domination was Hitler's assault on the Jewish race and humanity in general. This was a twisted man bent on creating a perfect, master race. What he accomplished in less than fifteen years is a blight on the passages of history and will mar man's existence forever.

With this in mind, the men living prior to the flood were living upward of eight and nine hundred years. After the flood, while declining in ages, men still lived long lives of hundreds of years. These time spans were more than enough to plan, conceive and grow children that were ideal for breeding programs in order to create a master race of giants. The likes of Nimrod were already bent on creating a tower to heaven, what would stop them from breeding people for the sake of a stronger, controlling race?

The start of this was not only self-serving motives and carnal desires. It was an abandonment of Elohim by His created men who were chosen for His purpose. Those of the earth were not carry the Seed of hope like the direct lineages of Adam through Lamech. When the sons/ben of God/Elohim saw that the daughters/bat of men/adam were beautiful, they abandoned their rightful positions of men of Elohim for the ways of the flesh, earth and sin. Like the angels mentioned in Jude, men thought they knew better for themselves and their own pride created yet another chasm between themselves and the Creator. 

For our part, we are guilty of doing the exact same sins as the men of Noach's days. Mixing seed, materials, stories, convictions, doctrine and truths is dangerous and all of us have been guilty of leaving behind Truth for the fanciful myths, speculations and sensationalism that man puts out for vain glory and manipulation. Why would haSatan need to have his minions breed with men when simple mind control and lust work better? Our shackles of what man has taught and done have been removed. The choices before us will either leave those shackles behind or rebind them to our hands, feet, hearts and minds. We have a choice to seek after the pure Word and YHVH's ways for our lives or to commingle our choices with fleshly desires, unscriptural philosophies and man-made doctrines/traditions. If we think we know better than the Creator, so be it. We will continue to create subpar beliefs and convictions leading only to death. Perhaps, though, it is time we choose to gaze upon the beauty of YHVH, His Son and Word. Maybe, we can stop this cycle of mixing that which is set apart with that which is earthly and base. The level of purity is up to us to choose.

Dwell upon Hosea 7:8-9, "Ephraim mixes himself with the nations; Ephraim has become a cake not turned. Strangers devour his strength, yet he does not know it; gray hairs also are sprinkled on him, yet he does not know it."

Parasha B'reisheet: Day 5

B'reisheet/Genesis 4:25-5:24

Following the succession of righteous men (and unrighteous) through the details inscribed in Torah is a remarkable Bread trail to say the least. In the reality of it all, Lamech could have easily sat upon Adam's lap and even have been old enough to hear of the Garden, the first sacrifice and the expulsion first hand. Lamech would have been 56 years old when his great (x6) grandfather passed away. That is old enough that Lamech could have had children who sat upon Adam's knees, as well. Even though those sons could have heard true stories of Paradise straight from the man who caused all men to be born with a sin nature, it would be Lamech's son Noach that would be the vessel for the Seed of Righteousness to travel through the genealogies of the ages.

The Seed promised to Adam and Chavah is what is of real interest and importance in the genealogies listed in Torah. From Adam to Seth and passed through Enosh, Kenan all the way though Methusalah and beyond into Noach, the Seed of promise and hope was the beacon that each generation hoped and desired would reunite men to the Creator and wipe each one's sin away forever. For some, such as in Seth's day, men would call upon Elohim and the name He had revealed to them at that age. There struggle with the earth and each other was enough to send them to the Father in requesting help. Others, like Enoch, walked with Elohim in a way that was so pleasing to the Master that He wrote in Torah for all to remember His servant and that He took Him prematurely and, possibly, miraculously.

The bookends of the first B'reisheet genealogy are marked with descriptions of men who called upon the name of Elohim and those who walked with Him and were even found to be blameless in their time, such as Noach. Enoch was one of these men as well. Their lives were marked as different to the Father and were surely seen as different to men of the earth. To some, perhaps their firstborn received that peculiarity as a blessing and walked within that same mantel as it was handed down from generation to generation. Others, it could have taken many children, as with Judah, Aaron, David and other patriarchs had many firstborn sons who did not take hold and/or receive the anointing of Seed bearer.

One could look to this trail of Bread crumbs as a lineage of a priestly line leading all the way to the High Priest of the ages. Each generation, like what was formally instituted in the days of Moshe, had a high priest figure who carried the first hand stories of the Garden, sin, sacrifice and banishment. Like the days of the temple, some could have been more lax in their job descriptions while others, such as Enoch and Noach, were more respondent to the Master's voice and instructions. To either end, the ultimate reward was long life and/or salvation from the impending destruction of the earth or death in separation from Elohim.

This brings us to our start and finish. YHVH our Elohim has seen fit that we realize from whence we came and to where we will go in our decision to either follow or rebel in His gracious Covenant. The story may not be first hand from the mouth of our forefathers, but it has been preserved and even spoken through angels (Hebrews 2:2) as a witness to us and our descendants after us. What has been bestowed upon us is nothing less than grace personified in that YHVH has led us to His Way, Truth and Life in Messiah, His Son. He is the promised Seed that has been traced and the Bread trail ends at His feet as He is the Bread from which we must all partake in order to satiate eternal hunger and thirst. Yeshua is the completion and succession of all genealogies. We are to surrender to Him in dying to our flesh so that we will begin to live as we have been created. He is our Righteousness and the Seed of hope that was promised to Adam and Chavah and to us, there grandchildren.

Dwell upon Philippians 1:6, "For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Messiah Yeshua."

Parasha B'reisheet: Day 4

B'reisheet/Genesis 3:22-4:24

What was the difference in Cain and Abel's offerings? It could be assumed, and is often taught, that Cain brought only of the fruit of the ground and Abel only of his flocks. However, Torah does not say that Cain only brought a grain offering and, more specifically, Abel probably did bring grains along with the first born of his flocks. Later, Torah does describe what man is supposed to appear before YHVH yielding to Him as their offerings. For some, due to their limited means, a grain offering is perfectly acceptable if offered in thanksgiving and without holding back other gifts. Herein lies the problem and difference between the two brothers' offerings.

Elohim did not mandate offerings and sacrifice without first showing how and what was expected. It should be mentioned that both brothers had a dad that knew YHVH up close and was disclosed to personally on how to make proper sacrifice. When Adam and Chavah were found naked in the Garden, they had already taken from the fruit of the earth and tried to make coverings for themselves. What their hands had cultivated were used to make appear acceptable that which was unclean and detestable. Their own sin had caused their separateness from the Creator and they were in dire straits to mend that broken fence so they would seem righteous. At their disposal was the work of their own hands which either would flourish due to their nurturing and cultivation, or would grow wild with lack of attentiveness. This was not the case with animals. Even with cattle and domesticated livestock, if left alone in the wild, they flourish, multiply and survive with ease.

As the Creator came forward to walk in the cool of the day with man, he was found unclothed. His nakedness was not something new, as he was created naked. His bare estate was due to the lack of the Creator's glory surrounding him since the Father cannot dwell with or in sin. Thus, the Master sacrificed the first animal for their sin, providing the skin for their covering and an example of what to do for sin. The temporal effect of an animal's hide would parallel the temporal offering of ox, lamb and goats for the sake of sin. Human nature cannot be covered, but must be redeemed with much more substantial offering and atonement.

For Cain, what he knew was the sweat of his brow for the sake of survival. He looked to the earth for provision and for satiation. Abel, being a man of the flock, saw the need for a Shepherd and regarded Elohim as One Who would guide, protect and even sacrifice for his own personal life. Since the Master had done it once, most certainly, in Abel's eyes, He could and would do it again. Abel's offerings of firstlings were the closest reminder of this redemption price that only Elohim could pay. It was the heart attitude of Abel in this understanding, wisdom and awesome fear that empowered favor from the Creator. This led his spiritual and natural gaze to be lifted to the Father for his life, breath and being. Cain, unfortunately, gazed heavily upon the land and the work of his hands. Leaning on his own understanding and the laborious efforts of his personal sweat, he felt that his own equity in and from the earth was enough to satisfy his cravings and then the Creator's desire for him to present himself as clean and atoned.

What is the difference in our offerings and sacrifices compare to other Cain's? How about to other believers'? It is not our portion to compare our gifts, rather it should be our goal to outdo in love and awe of our Creator, Elohim YHVH. Quite frankly, the Father looks for the mercy and love we show others; yet He longs for our desire to for Him, to do His well and to have His Torah in our hearts. In earnestly correcting our flesh and sin nature, dying to that which Cain chose not to overcome, Elohim desires our attention upon Himself and away from the things of this earth that garnish our attention. YHVH Yirah/Provider is sufficient for us as we take our eyes from the sweat of our brow and the works of our hands and place them on Him for all of our good. As Abel, we will be acceptable and accepted in the light of Messiah's sacrifice as the firstling of YHVH's fruit and perfect whole creation.

Dwell upon Psalm 40:6-8, "Sacrifice and meal offering You have not desired; my ears You have opened; burnt offering and sin offering You have not required. Then I said, 'Behold, I come; in the scroll of the book it is written of me. I delight to do Your will, O my Elohim; Your Torah is within my heart.'"

Parasha B'reisheet: Day 3

B'reisheet/Genesis 2:20-3:21

Elohim created the seed bearing trees and plants in order for them to produce seed after their own kind. Thus, Adam was created with the righteousness of the Creator. Adam was to be one with his helper and reproduce seed after that same kind—the seed of righteousness, not knowing all the knowledge or wisdom of the earth, but only of Elohim and what He would reveal to His seed. Part of man's own body was planted into another creature called woman. This was a picture of the Creator planting part of Himself into man as he was created in Elohim's own image. Woman was not created as a replacement of Elohim, rather she was made as an example of the relationship that all men and women were to have with the Creator as His helper.

Instead of hearing the voice of Elohim man listened to the voice of woman allowing her to be the voice of elohim to him. This was only after woman had done the same by allowing the serpent to be the voice of her master instead of heeding the voice of her husband or the Creator. The serpent had already fallen from a place of help and covering as he embodied haSatan/the adversary and was bent on taking the Master's attention off of His new helper, the one that was to tend the place of Paradise, a former job description of the fallen one.

Since the adversary could not gain acceptance in the eyes of Elohim any longer, he desired to create man in his image by passing along the seed of sin, causing man to be separated from the Creator. By passing along his seed into the creation of the earth, the adversary removed inherent righteousness from the earth causing a cycle of predetermined events to proceed, all of which would need YHVH to interject His perfection for redemption to take place. Until then, the fall of man would be echoed into every human birth. The curses that Elohim pronounced would be handed down to every generation causing a rift between the Creator and his creation.

Adam and Chavah/Eve were cursed along with the serpent so that death would certainly come upon them and all of humanity. This death would endure in two forms, separateness from Elohim, in life and in eternity, and a physical perpetual decay that would strike every living human. However, in that curse there was a revealed hope. Even though the serpent's seed would bruise man's heel, it would be man's heel that would bruise/crush the adversary's head. The promise of hope was given by the same curse. This is a Covenant that Elohim established with Adam, for his heel would prevail over his enemy. Adam and Chavah's expectation of this crush was so great that they would name their first son Cain literally meaning begotten one. As a foreshadow of the Begotten One, their hope was fixed on a great deliverance from their own transgression.

The seed of the serpent is still alive to this day. Like a roaring lion, the enemy still consumes man by his own evil seed that was planted then and echos into the modern era. Fortunately, we have the Righteous Seed that is from YHVH Elohim, and can be traced through Abraham who believed and was promised a Seed that would bless all the nations of the earth. While the enmity between man and the serpent still exists, we have been given victory over the adversary by the Life of Messiah who is the promised One that has crushed the enemy's plans and will completely crush his head at the end of days. Until then, we have His same power in that His blood has ransomed us from the curse of the Law of sin and death. Moreover, His power within us, through His Ruach HaKodesh/Holy Spirit, provides us with the ability to overcome, deny and cast away the enemy and our own flesh. What was a curse upon man, woman and the serpent has become a blessing and fulfilled Covenant to all of us who believe and call upon the name of Yeshua our Salvation.

Dwell upon Galatians 3:18-19, "For if the inheritance is based on law [Torah], it is no longer based on a promise; but YHVH has granted it to Abraham by means of a promise. Why the Law [of sin and death] then? It was added because of transgressions, having been ordained through angels by the agency of a mediator, until the Seed would come to whom the promise had been made."

Parasha B'reisheet: Day 2

B'reisheet/Genesis 2:4-19

A Greek mindset has permeated the Christian culture and understanding of Torah/Teachings and Instructions. Greek thinking has instituted a contractual perspective that believers have signed and do not question based on erroneous assumptions. Contracts change and only Covenants do not, for they are everlasting. The Greek perception of mythology and little gods have been embraced in most cultures touched by the Roman Empire. What this has caused is a lack of proper inquisitiveness as mythology, intellectualism and contractual alignments have eroded Scriptural, Creator given curiosity for Truth and exploration of Who the Creator is.

The Elohim of Torah has given man, through Adam the same image as Himself. This is not to say that the Creator looks just like us or acts like us; rather, it is man who resembles Him and has character traits that take after the Master. With this in mind, instead of a Greek mind of acceptance or belief in ethereal deities who are false gods, one should look at Isaiah 1:18 and 43:26, Proverbs 30:5, Malachi 3:10 and 1 John 4:1. These show that YHVH wants His children to be convinced of His Word, integrity and Being as they test each and every spirit to know if it is of the Creator; or, to test their thinking of Torah in order to better understand and navigate the Oracles of Yah. The entire act of being Israel is traced to Yacov wrestling with Elohim in order to receive from Him the blessing. Yacov prevailed, not in mastering Elohim, but in proving his own character and integrity over a sin nature.

The empirical truths that believers hold on to may not be truths at all. Perhaps the story of creating Adam/man could change the way people cling to greek thinking and begin to question their own perception and understanding of Torah for better understanding of their Torah roots and the Elohim. Was Adam created before or after the vegetation of the earth blossomed and bore fruit? Could their had been other humans created besides Adam, who was a man of Elohim rather than a son or daughter of man, and done so after the creation of Adam? These are not questions of spurning Elohim, but of curiosity of how others were on the earth when Cain would leave Elohim's presence. These are questions of creation based in the Truth of B'reisheet chapters one and two.

Simultaneously, the ethereal lifestyle of Greek gods and goddesses has been interwoven into a Christian eternal perspective. Large gates blocking the way into heaven with angels and people on clouds playing harps and wearing halos is norm for what heaven is imagined to be. Do most people realize that work will be done in eternity and in heaven? The first place that Elohim placed His man was the Garden. This was a place of paradise from which Adam would be expelled. Paradise consisted of the River of Life and the Tree of Life; and, it was man who was placed their by the Creator in order to cultivate it and keep it. This is before the fall of man into sin. Similarly, Elohim worked for six days and rested on the seventh, sanctifying a Shabbat for every creature, every seventh day. This is a character attribute of the Creator that should be seen and studied. Why did He need to work or rest? Why would His Garden, Paradise, need to be kept or cultivated?

None of these questions may have answers readily found now; however, that should not dissuade us, as Elohim's creation and people, from asking and searching for understanding. It is this sense of reasoning, wrestling, testing, even arguing that brings us closer to righteous understanding, wisdom and truth. It is this rational in proper Torah perspectives that draw us closer to knowing more about the Creator and His perfect character. We are not called to poke our fingers in the eye of the Master; but He did create us to be curious and to seek out the treasures of Torah and Himself. Our minds and knowledge need to reflect the Creator and His nature, not man made philosophies and traditions. Perhaps, we should begin by testing the very Greek mentality that we have inherited and been taught so that we can shed that thinking for what is pure and lovely and true.

Dwell upon Proverbs 30:3-6, "Neither have I learned wisdom, nor do I have the knowledge of the Holy One. Who has ascended into heaven and descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has wrapped the waters in His garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name or His Son's name? Surely you know! Every Word of Elohim is tested; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him. Do not add to His words or He will reprove you, and you will be proved a liar."

Parasha B'reisheet: Day 1

B'reisheet/Genesis 1:1-2:3

In the beginning Elohim/God created. From Himself, Elohim made the heavens, the earth, light, land, sea, vegetation, the sun and moon, the stars, day and night, sea creatures, land creatures and man. In the beginning, Elohim created everything by His spoken Word. At the beginning there was darkness, not light. To that point of what Elohim existed for man's abode, there was only darkness and Elohim dwelt there as His Ruach/Spirit hovered over the surface of the deep. In the beginning, only that which Elohim desired to disclose of Himself had been revealed. It was darkness and then light. Elohim only was revealed as the Creator and not His name YHVH/I Am That I Am. That was sufficient.

Elohim disclosing Himself as Light would be the only luminary that was needed as it was enough to dispel darkness as Elohim pleased and shone on His creation. Darkness could not comprehend the Light so it was dispelled causing the distinction between evening and morning, day and night. Elohim was the only Light that day or night, the heavens or earth would need for their definition and reality. It was Elohim's disclosure of Himself that allowed Light to be seen. That Light was Life and would serve as the sole source of life on earth. Yet, the Creator knew of His plan for man and his inability to remain in Light and to abide in Life. Out of compassion, Elohim fashioned the other luminaries, the sun, moon and stars, as witnesses to His Great Light and Life. The earth did not need these lesser lights. This is clear from the fact that the lesser lights did not exist until the fourth day. However, it was the third day that the earth was commanded to sprout vegetation, plants and trees all bearing seed after their own kind.

Human nature only understands the need for light as a vehicle that causes growth. In plants this is photosynthesis. This is because man does not comprehend the Light, but searches for the natural knowledge that was dispelled because of the Light and Life revealed by Elohim on the first day. Without personal revelation of the Light and Life, man suffers in despondent darkness, not even realizing how much he needs Light and the Life for his eternal future and hope. This principle is demonstrated equally well in that Elohim did not reveal Himself at the beginning as Messiah or, even, YHVH, but only as Elohim and Light. It would be Moshe that would first realize just Who Elohim is as YHVH. It is by that Name that man must call and believe and trust. It is the Name of YHVH that is above all names and it is through that Name that Yahshua/Yeshua/Jesus is revealed. Yeshua is the Light of the world and Way, Truth and Life through Whom all men must enter if they want to receive the Light and Life  of YHVH.

In the beginning, the end has been revealed. What we would understand as darkness is the lesser amounts of what Elohim created for our dawning of understanding of Who He is. In the end, the presence of Elohim will be the only illuminance needed over the face of the earth. He will illumine man and there will be no night, nor will we have need for lamp or the sun. Instead we will have the Son and the Light of the world that will sustain us, the vegetation of Paradise and be the Life for all to live within. In that day, the revelation of His Light will reflect the fulness of His Name as we call upon YHVH through Yahshua. In the beginning, we have seen a great Light. The Elohim of peace has presented Himself as the One Who hovers over His creation and reveals Himself to us. Let us be separated from that which is in darkness and only dwell in His Life.

Dwell upon John 1:1-5, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim. He was in the beginning with Elohim. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."
