IMPORTANT

There is such tremendous need for the Jewish and Gentile believers to reconcile and become one before the throne, that I have changed some everyday words from the Greek to what would have been the original Hebrew/Aramaic. A list of these words follows. The first letters of the Brit Chadashah (Renewed Covenant) were written in Hebrew, and the Name of our Messiah JESUS in Hebrew is YESHUA.¹ There is also a great deal of anger and anti-Semitic attitudes within the Body of Messiah, and certain words now truly are offensive to the Jewish people. For a very long time, the Jewish people have been forced and pressured to fit into a stereotype Christian mold, and there are many resentments and hurts.

Before you allow that inner twinge of anger to take hold, the thought which asks, Who cares, why bother, and does it really matter, please realize something which is so very subtle, you would not recognize it unless put right before your eyes. That twinge of anger and those questions are the anti-Semitic result of the Gentile church prideful teaching that it had the authority by God to take the place of the Chosen People and replace their heritage, and to change the Torah of God. These unexamined attitudes are deeply rooted false doctrines. Recognize the unreasoning anger. The more we realize the first Apostles and believers were Jewish, the better to understand the words they used and those spoken by YESHUA. Always, they spoke in reference to the Tenack (Older Covenant Scriptures), and an understanding of these, along with dedicated study, meditation, and prayer, will avail the reader depths previously unknown. These word changes are more accurately Hebrew, and to facilitate the bridge of understanding between both cultures, I feel their use is very important.

I readily use these words throughout the book. Within the quoted Scripture text, I have changed Jesus Christ to "Messiah YESHUA." This keeps the reading somewhat smoother. Within the Hebrew text, when the Name of YEHEVEH is written, I have used the actual Hebrew letters, inline . Other than the two name changes, the text has not been altered.

The Brit Chadashah does not mark a difference between YEHEVEH inline and Adon in the text, and uses only one English word, Lord, for both. Where a verse quotes the Tenack, I have used YEHEVEH inline if it is part of the quote. We have been looking into the Peshitta, and other texts, to find an over all understanding of which term is actually being used. So far, a clarity of Lord is revealing a true Oneness teaching within the Brit Chadashah. Where Lord is quoted, I have marked it with a footnote to show the Greek and Peshitta forms. Since YESHUA is inline , His Name is always capitalized as had been originally done to LORD in the Older Covenant, King James Version. In any place where direct reference is made to His Deity, or His Holy Places, I have capitalized the word. This is done out of the reverence I have for YESHUA. Too often we forget He is a God who is jealous for His Name.

MESSIANIC TERMINOLOGY

YESHUA: The Name of the Messiah when He walked the earth. Jewish people have been persecuted horribly in the name of Jesus, and consequently, that name communicates hatred and anti-Semitism. His Name means salvation.

YEHEVEH: The Name of inline , incorrectly called Jehovah, translated into the LORD. Out of respect, and so as to not take His Name in vain, the Jews call Him HaShem, the Name. Some call Him Yahweh, from the w sound in Hebrew. Some call Him Yeveh, which is, I believe, closer to the truth. There are Sacred Name people who insist if you do not pronounce the Name correctly, as they see it, then you are not saved. Some go as so far as to say to their ministers if they use any Greek form, they will be removed from their groups. There are many fanatics. For my own personal reasons, I call Him YEHEVEH, and I believe YESHUA is YEHEVEH in the flesh.

MESSIAH: Derived from the Hebrew word mashiach, meaning anointed one.

BELIEVERS: This term is used instead of Christian. To Jewish people, Christians are the people who have hated and persecuted Jews for two millennia. I was utterly shocked to find men whom the Christian church call great men of God actually believed the Jews should be wiped off the face of the earth or put into slavery. They said the Jew killed the Christ. YESHUA said no one could take His life. By using the term believer, the focus is on a person’s commitment to follow YEHEVEH, not on those who called themselves Christians but did not walk as He walked.

BRIT CHADASHAH: Literally, Covenant Renewed, from Yermiyahu (Jeremiah) 31:31. It is not a new Covenant, but a Renewed Covenant.

CONGREGATION: Messianic congregations are not called churches. Ecclesia refers to people, not buildings. A synonym in the Brit Chadashah for ecclesia is sunagogue, Ya’acov (James) 2:1-6, and refers to a meeting of believers.

MOSHE: The Hebrew for Moses. From my in-depth Hebrew studies, I have come to love and cherish the name of Moshe.

SHA’UL: Apostle Paul. Since I am one of the few people it seems who has done little reading within the book of Acts, I raced there when I was told Sha’ul’s name was not changed on the road to Damascus. I was stunned. Sha’ul was his Hebrew name, and because he was also a Roman citizen, he already had his Roman name of Paulus. He claimed his right as citizen so he would be tried in Rome itself. There is only one example of the new man name change within the Tanack, that of Ya’acov (Jacob) to Israel. Within the Brit Chadashah, there is also only one name change, Simon ben Noah to Petras, or Peter (Keifa). I believe it was a catholic teaching of Sha’ul’s name being changed which takes our eyes off the real reason Simon’s name was changed.

TENACK: From combining the three parts of the Jewish Bible, Torah, Nevi’im (Prophets), and Ketuvim (Writings). I will use this term throughout the book.

TORAH: The first five books of the Bible. From these all wisdom of the Word of God springs forth. Christianity has ignorantly called the Older Covenant and the Torah the law, and has dismissed the very teachings and comprehension of right and wrong we are told in Hebrews to know by the exercising of our senses. The great beauty, majesty, and soaring power of the Torah have been missing, and careful diligence to the Words of it brings forth the true heart and nature of God.

I contemplated using the word Elohim for God, but in the Hebrew Scriptures, Elohim is not always used. Sometimes Eloah, El, and Elohay are used. Not being an expert on Hebrew, I could not arbitrarily decide to use Elohim in all cases. I am aware some people are offended by the word God, but I would hope in the reading of a work of this nature, one would realize I am referring to the living Elohim of Avraham, Yitzack and Ya’acov.

HEBREW WORDS

The Books of Torah:

Beresheit–Genesis

Shemot–Exodus

Vayikra–Leviticus

Bemidbar–Numbers

Devarim–Deuteronomy

The Mo’edim (Feasts):

Pesach – Passover

Hag haMatzote – Unleavened Bread

Hag haBikurim – Firstfruits of the Barley Harvest

Shavuot – Pentecost, Counting of the Weeks

Yom Teruah –Trumpets, Shouting

Yom Kippurim - Day of Atonements

Sukkot –Tabernacles

I have been more than stunned to find many deep held beliefs are not found within the Bible at all, but within the traditions of men. Too many ministers play up the words of Scripture when they need no embellishment, and stand upon their own. I have tried to be as exact and accurate as possible. Try this around people and you shall find how often Scriptures are totally misquoted or misunderstood. They may get angry, but we are responsible for what WE know in the Word of God, not what another tells us.

Although it is being realized YESHUA may not have been crucified upon an actual cross, I use the word in reference to the Wilderness Tabernacle. When one stands before the golden Altar of Incense, they create the cross pattern within the Mosaic Tabernacle. YESHUA is the One who lays in Zion, the heavenly Temple.

This work is dedicated to our Messiah YESHUA, for He revealed and explained all of it. He has guided me throughout the outline and rewrite, my fragile attempts to explain to others what I was being shown, and causing my measure of faith to be stretched greatly.

Special thanks are given to each and every person with whom I have come in contact, for YESHUA used them as confirmations every step of the way in completing this work.

Pastor Betty Young was the first to accept the challenge of YESHUA in starting this work. Her immense understanding, knowledge, and wisdom of the Word of God were tantamount to commencing this work. She was also strong enough to allow me to flow a full year almost continually in a state of vision while the basic outline was written.

Sister Evonne Combs, Ezekiel prophet, who kept me spiritually balanced while journeying within the Holy Places of YESHUA.

Brother Ken Page, who kept me balanced within the Scriptures, to keep me from running amok.

Sister Sharon Corruthers was used greatly by YESHUA to portray and confirm the living examples of the Rod of Moshe and the Manna of Eliyahu.

I personally want to thank every different race of people upon this earth, without whom YESHUA would never have come.

My greatest love and thanks belong to my daughter, Adrienne, who lost her mother for a year while the outline was being written. She patiently waited to communicate with me in between floodings of revelation. As a twelve-year-old, she was able to not only understand, she was instrumental to the placement of the Revelation Lampstand. My thanks to all who are drawing closer to Messiah YESHUA.

THEY SHALL SPEAK IN THE MIDST OF BABEL

A Step Deeper Into Scriptures Means A Set Apart Walk

INTRODUCTION

To many, the study of the Mosaic Tabernacle is unknown. As believers become hungry for more of the Word and seek to learn more about their walk in our Messiah YESHUA, they are finding the Mosaic Tabernacle is more than a study. It is a walk and a life in the measure of the stature of the fullness of Messiah, Eph 4:13. It is the pattern for the progression of the growth of the believers in YESHUA.

The Mosaic Tabernacle was the desert Temple YEHEVEH commissioned Moshe to build. It was the place where He met with the people of Israel after their deliverance from Egypt. The exact details of the Tabernacle are found in Shemot (Exodus) 25-40, and were the patterns for all the Temples of Israel.

This Tabernacle pattern is in reality the picture of the whole redemptive work of Messiah YESHUA. Every detail portrays an aspect of Him, His character, His way to bring us unto Him, to be like unto Him. Even the great Mo’edim (Feasts) portray the first and second appearances of YESHUA. Every believer may find where they are in their walk with YEHEVEH and see the beauty of the will of Elohim in His relationship with His people. Hebrews 9 speaks of the earthly and heavenly Tabernacles; to the Philadelphia congregation in Revelation 3:7-12, YESHUA speaks of going in and out of the Temple; YESHUA also speaks of going in and out to pasture in John 10:9.

Solomon built the first stone Temple for YEHEVEH. At the time of Messiah YESHUA, it was Herod’s Temple which stood in Jerusalem, who greatly enlarged the second Temple of the days of Ezra and Nehemiah. A Veil which hung before the Ark of the Covenant, separating and protecting the priests from YEHEVEH’s Presence, was also hung in Herod’s Temple. This very heavy Veil was torn asunder from top to bottom at the death of Messiah YESHUA just as the Pesach (Passover) Lamb was being slain upon the Brazen Altar in the Courtyard. This signified the way was made for the people of YEHEVEH to enter His Presence.

These Scriptures point to the importance of entering into the spiritual Temple of YEHEVEH. Great detail and explanation of this walk in the Tabernacle have been given in the books by B.R. Hicks, THE PRECIOUS GEM IN THE TABERNACLE, and Rev. Alex W. Ness, A PATTERN FOR LIVING. Since these books contain such a wealth of detail, I will only be giving a brief outline to acquaint you with the pattern.

The walk of the priest is sadly lacking in the Body of Messiah today. The Apostle Peter called the believers a royal priesthood, a HOLY nation. Too many have missed the dedication and commitment to YEHEVEH who is Almighty. The growth of many believers has been stunted. Often the faith and walk have been superficial, leaving many petulant in their attitude to YEHEVEH. There is a far deeper way to go to become express images of Messiah YESHUA, to become the Sons of God. YEHEVEH is preparing us for the eternity to come.

What is written in this book is a revelation given to me by YESHUA concerning the Lampstand, known in the Hebrew language as the Menorah. The Lampstand is one of the seven pieces of the Tabernacle Articles. It held the seven Lamps which lit the Holy Place. The Lampstand signifies the Light of the revelation of YEHEVEH. It is also the pattern upon which sits all sixty-six books of the Bible. Every word of Holy Scripture may be found upon the Lampstand. He caused me to sit before this Lampstand within the Holy Place. He had me place the chapters of the book of Revelation upon the Lampstand, upon the TRUE pattern found within the book of Shemot. YESHUA has openly revealed the understanding of the book of Revelation. It is not only a blueprint for the survival of the believers, most especially before the return of our blessed Savior, Messiah YESHUA, Revelation portrays the majestic pathway the bride of Messiah walks toward her bridegroom. A full understanding of both the Tenack and Brit Chadashah may be found upon the Lampstand, as well as the overall plan of YEHEVEH for mankind.

More and more believers are realizing the body of Messiah will be going through the events found within the book of Revelation. By His Spirit, YESHUA is speaking His Truth, and the believers who would hear will hear. Many believers already know the book of Revelation is NOT written in sequential time, as previously taught. The pattern of time and events are explained. In fact, much more has been explained. This book is full of delightful discoveries and revelations. Most of what has been written has been given by direct guidance of YEHEVEH. A little is conjecture upon my part, where He allowed. He has left some puzzles and mysteries for others to reveal, many clearly marked.

You may be shocked into pondering another way of looking at the end times, you may feel very negatively toward the information. Many are already finding the Truth. The proofs should not be ignored. Many of the books written about the tribulation period found in the bookstores are written from the point of view the believers will be gone before most of the book of Revelation takes place. There would be no reason for them to comprehend the book of Revelation. The theory of the pre-tribulation rapture blocks the very purpose for the book having been written. We need to learn it is possible to LOOK THROUGH THE BIBLE, not as a flat book with pages to turn, but dimensionally within the whole book. We need to learn we might look with the eyes of God.

This brings up another point I wish to stress. Though many of the physical events in the book of Revelation are explained, most of this book is written from a spiritual, prophetic overview. Compared to the understanding of the walk of the bride and YEHEVEH’s delicate care of her, the stories we hear of possible nuclear wars, nuclear winters, the horrors and destructions, if even true, are not worth the looking. The believers are to be like Peter as he stepped out of the boat, full of confidence and faith. We must not look to the right or to the left at the winds boisterous. YEHEVEH would have us to understand, but we are not to be moved by what we see. This is not a book of fear, but a book of the hope, power, and strength of the believers on fire for the Word of Messiah YESHUA. These believers will walk in the testimony of YESHUA, for it is written in Revelation 19:10,

THE TESTIMONY OF YESHUA IS THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.

To those who have not yet come to know YESHUA fully, or the fact the body of Messiah will greatly participate in the Day of YEHEVEH, the information within this book may be almost impossible to receive. Many of the body have been led to believe questioning the secret, pre-tribulation rapture theory shows an utter lack of faith, when it does not. To question doctrines is not an evidence of loss of faith. We are to TEST the doctrines we hear and not be blown about by every wind of doctrine. There is nothing wrong with teaching the believers how to test doctrine, how to search the Word for a full proof and understanding. YESHUA warned us to be careful how we hear. The believers must know WHY they believe, for themselves, because each person will be responsible for his or her walk in Him.

There is no proof of a secret rapture, three and a half or seven years, before the return of YESHUA, but there is a whole Bible full of proof the body of Messiah does indeed go through the tribulation period. So many titles such as rapture and great tribulation have been accepted, the real Truth has been ignored.

What is more important, has anyone, with an open and teachable heart, even ASKED YESHUA what is the Truth, and waited to hear what He had to say? It should be normal for believers to be hearing His Voice, for YESHUA stated, Everyone that is of the Truth hears My Voice (Yochanan 18:37). As His Spirit is enlightening His people, many are picking up, like manna in the wilderness, pieces of the picture. It is important they realize they are only holding PART of the picture. As they remain humble, for we MUST remain humble, He will bring together all the pieces to the puzzle. As with denominational congregations, it is dangerous to believe the piece of Truth we hold is the ONLY piece to the picture. We need to be thankful He is showing us ANY of the pieces! What has been given here is the framework upon which sits all the pieces.

The small, first unit of this book details the engineering pattern of the Lampstand as YESHUA directed. It is more akin to a long introduction! I wrote this by faith, believing He would confirm His Truth. YESHUA did just that. A section explaining the Hebrew Alephbet as it concerns the Lampstand was written but He indicated it was not to be included within this study. A brief outline and periodic references are included.

The main bulk of the book is given to the engineering pattern of the vision of Revelation as it relates to the Lampstand found within Shemot 25:31-36. It is the spiritual battle plan of the believers and the clear-cut pathway of the bride. Simply put, the world is blindly falling into the satanic traps set before them. To believe good is evil and evil is good shows great moral corruption. The world is setting up to create and follow a god who will caress their egos and confirm their yearnings to commit sin without guilt. The believers shall indeed Speak in the Midst of Babel, standing against the Babel of sin, corruption and immorality such as would even today seem unbelievable. They will stand as great lights, speaking the Truth clearly and in great spiritual firepower. The believers must become the overcomers YESHUA has called for us to be. Realizing where she will be during the tribulation is the first step in preparing the body of Messiah for the greatest showdown of all times. Rather than walking in fear, the body of Messiah needs to put on the full armor of God and look with eyes of fire to the eternity set before her.

YEHEVEH has given me a certain understanding of the Hebrew and Greek languages. He has also given me to see some of the Jewish and Gentile wisdom found within His great Bible. Without the blending and understanding of both, it is difficult to see the whole Bible clearly. For too long, the Jewish and Gentile believers have been apart, worlds apart, and aliens to one another. Both groups suffer from inner fractures of varied groups who barely are civil one to another. The great work of unity begins with each group responsible to the call of becoming ONE in YEHEVEH. The two great groups of believers shall be called before the throne of Messiah YESHUA, a great end-time work within His hands.

Therefore, more than anything else, my hope is for the Jewish and Gentile believers to become one in YEHEVEH, as stated in Yechezkel (Ezekiel) 37:16-20. He has spent a great deal of time and Scripture to bring both groups to Himself. Already, there has been some unity in the sharing of knowledge, but both groups are distinctly separate. At times, the separation becomes almost cruel; therefore, I pray this book tends to unite both groups, for this is what YESHUA is doing. We will soon find we NEED each other, as well.

I will not detail the massive deceptions brought forth by ministers who have no deep relationship with YESHUA, but I will mention where they are contrary to the Word. We will have only ourselves to blame for the falling away. There is a famine in the land
