Gather To Me My Saints

gather to me my saints“Gather to Me My saints [חסידי, khaw·seed’ – literally, “My kind“], who cut [כרתי, kaw·rath’] a covenant [בריתי, ber·eeth – a cutting] with Me by slaughter [זבח, zeh’·vakh].” (Psa 50:5)

My NKJV and most versions say,

“Gather My saints together to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.” (Psa 50:5)

Oh my – the translators are not our friends. They are, for the most part, men who lack many understandings. They leave out words, change words, invent words and even add words all the time. Our only safety is in digging into the Hebrew.

gather to me my saints
Passover slaughter

Their word “sacrifice” is a “christian” word made up by the translators to lead you away from Yehovah’s covenant which a “man,” an eesh, enters into or renews with Yehovah every Passover. The word being translated as “sacrifice” is the Hebrew word “zeh’·vakh” and a zehvekh is ALWAYS something that Israel eats, most often with their families, their servants and the Ger who dwell with them!

This verse in Psalms 50 is contrasted with another verse in the same chapter. Here it is.

But to the wicked Elohim says: “What right have you to declare My statutes, or take My covenant [בריתי, ber·eeth’ – a cutting] in your mouth [פיך, peh] … (Psa 50:16)

Ooooh, Myyyy, Elohim, isn’t this what I keep saying? Only the Ezrach men (along with those who dwell under their authority) who have entered into covenant with Yehovah at Passover will make it into the millennial kingdom. EVERYONE else on the earth will perish in the coming last days.

Gather to Me My saints

Every Friday night from Sukkot to Passover I give of my time to help aid Yehovah to “Gather to Me My saints” by teaching my series of classes called “The process of becoming as one born in the land” in order for you to learn how to live through the last days of this world. The vast majority of us, are not ready! We don’t “get it!” NO MAN eats the passover until he has, repented, left the kingdom of his birth and joined himself to Yehovah and His called-out people; and until he eats the Passover, no man is in covenant with Yehovah .

If you will not come to the classes, then at least read the articles on how a Gentile becomes a Ger, how a Ger becomes an Ezrach (as one born in the land) and how to celebrate a real Passover.

We have learned so many, lies and even have unmarried, uncovered women thinking they are in covenant with Yehovah. Augh!

How DOES a woman become a part of the covenant with Yehovah? The answer in found in her relationship to her man. But a woman with no man in her life is lost and will perish with everyone else. NOW is the time to learn to become a woman of worth and begin to see how all these pieces fit together.

“Whom will he teach knowledge? And whom will he make to understand the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just drawn from the breasts? [NO!] For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.” (Isa 28:9-10)

Psalms 50 is all about the final Yom Kippurim on this side of the great day, which happens just before Yehovah returns in a cloud. He is going to gather His saints by separating those men from among Israel who have eaten the Passover with good and pure hearts from those who have eaten it with wicked and uncircumcised hearts; and once He does, the great day of Yehovah will commence.

Israel’s booty – Midianite Virgins And Livestock

Midianite virginsIn today’s lesson, Yehovah has commanded His son (Israel) to take vengeance for Him on Midian for what they did to us in the incident of Peor. We were to kill all their males and their women who had been with a male and then bring back the Midianite virgins alive. But we are still a bit new at all of this.

And they warred against the Midianites, just as Yehovah commanded Moses, and they killed all the males. They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of those who were killed–Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. Balaam the son of Beor they also killed with the sword. And Israel’s son took Midian’s women [na-shi, the possessive plural form of  ish-shah] captive, with their children [ta-phim], and plundered all their cattle, all their flocks, and all their goods. They also burned with fire all the cities where they dwelt, and all their forts. And they took all their spoil and all their booty—in man and in beast. (Num 31:7-11)

It appears that the spoil is property (gold, silver and other possessions) which belonged to Midian’s seed, and the booty is their living and breathing property in man and in beast.

Moses was angry because we left all the women and children alive and brought them all back with us. He said,

Look [HELLO!], these women caused Israel’s seed, through the counsel of Balaam, to trespass against Yehovah in the incident of Peor, and there was a striking among the assembly of Yehovah. Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately. But keep alive for yourselves all the women who have not known a man intimately. (Num 31:16-18)

So, the Midianite virgins were set aside for the Israel’s seed along with the flocks (sheep and goats), cattle and donkeys. This chapter gives us a description of how all the booty, the living property, was divided among Israel’s seed. Each of two groups of men received 50%  of the booty taken in the war and Yehovah also claimed a portion from each group.

This chart will help you understand more completely what I am reading and describing in my audio below.

675,000 Tze-one (sheep and goats)(Num 31:32)
72,000 Cattle (Num 31:33)
61,000 Donkeys (Num 31:34)
32,000 Midianite virgins (Num 31:35)

booty splitYehovah did not ask for any of the gold or the silver or any of the “stuff” which we recovered from Midian’s seed; it appears to me the things that have real value are the living and breathing property which can multiply itself in Yehovah’s kingdom.

Zimri And Cozbi

zimri and cozbi

Israel has just finish defeating the two powerful kings of the Amorites, Sihon and Og of Bashan; they were the dreaded enemies of both Moab and Midian. Now that we were able to destroy the Amorites so easily, Moab and Midian both fear that they will be the next to fall to us.

Instead of fighting us directly, they have put together a plan to undermine Israel’s son’s relationship with Yehovah. After a summer campaign on the east side of the Jordan we have gathered at Shittim on the plain of Moab to spend the winter before we start a new campaign on the west side of the Jordan in the spring.

It appears to me that some of Israel (remember they are the ezrach men) have become complacent and perhaps willing to covenant with our enemies instead of destroying them. Some of us began to take their daughters, eat their meat which has not been slaughtered to Yehovah and, worst of all, bowed down and served other elohim (lawmakers and judges) besides Yehovah.

And he, Israel abode in Shittim, and the people became wanton for Moab’s  daughters [בנות, benot], and they [Moab] called to the people to slaughter [לזבחי, zeh-vach] to their elohim (lawmakers and judges), and they did eat; and the people bowed down to their elohim. (Num 25:2-3)

Incidentally, eating meat slaughtered to other elohim is what we do when we buy beef, lamb or goat at the grocery store.

Big, big mistake! Yehovah (40 years before) said, Continue reading Zimri And Cozbi →

Meat sacrificed to idols – 8 (an altar to Yehovah)

We saw last time that meat slaughtered to “se-i-rim” or “idols” is the opposite of meat slaughtered to Yehovah.

When I learn new instructions from my Father’s word, I always do my best to conform my life to my new understandings. And when I finally understood what Leviticus chapters 3, 7, 17 were saying about Yehovah’s clean meats, and especially the meat that comes from the herd (cattle) and the flock (sheep and goats), I had to make some major changes to my diet. I saw that there are many ways that a man can get kicked out of Israel for treating this meat improperly. And, the only meat we eat (from the herd or from the flock) is meat that we kill properly.

But currently we have no tabernacle, no temple and no priesthood, so what does a man do if he wants to eat beef, lamb or goat?

When we came out of Egypt the first time, we did not have a tabernacle for almost a year. So, I had to ask myself, what did we do then? What did Enoch, Methuselah and all the righteous men in the antediluvian world do? What did Noah, Shem, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob do?

Meat sacrificed to idols – 7

Clean 4 Footed Animals, Ezrach, Food, Ger, Gerim, Hebrew Roots, Leviticus 17, Meat Sacrificed to Demons, Meat Sacrificed to Devils, Meat Sacrificed to Goat Demons, Michael Didier Torah Teacher, Red Meat, She-la-mim, Sons of Israel, Tahor and Tamei, , , , , , , , , ,

Leviticus 17 is all about Yehovah’s instructions which His people (both the Ezrach and the Gerim, all men) are to follow for the slaughter of clean meats. In all cases the man who kills the animal is the one who eats it along with all those who are clean (tahor) and under his covering.

I think we, who are now trying to come to the truths of Yehovah’s word, have been deceived and misdirected by the word which the translators use in this chapter and in the Hebrew scriptures as a whole; and calling Yehovah’s Thanksgiving Slaughter a “sacrifice of the peace offering” has confused us even further.

It appears to me that Yehovah expects His people to live a more agrarian lifestyle. He never intended us to live in cities and be dependent on other men for our food, utilities, the education of our children and for our work. Over thousands of years we have drifted so far from Yehovah’s eternal and unchanging ways that what we currently do, seems right,

The heart knows his own bitterness, and a zoor  does not share his joy. The house of the wicked will be overthrown, but the tent of the upright will flourish. There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. (Pro 14:10-12)

Zoor, house and tent; oh my – the words Yehovah chooses in expressing His eternal and unchanging message simply amaze me.

What we do with the information, which I am lovingly and painstakingly providing in this series and in all I write, will determine whether we have the inclination to live eternally with Yehovah as an Ezrach, or perish from the earth with the rest of the zoor.

The instruction in Torah that inspired this series is this one.

They (Israel’s seed; aka and perversely know as the children of Israel) shall no more slaughter [zeh-vach] their slaughterings [zeh-vach] to their se-i-rim’[?]; after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute forever for them throughout their generations. (Lev 17:7)

In most translations you will read something like this,

They shall no more offer their sacrifices to demons, after whom they have played the harlot. This shall be a statute forever for them throughout their generations. (Lev 17:7)

Offer, sacrifice, and demons are all English word which are translated in such a way as to mislead the reader from Yehovah’s set-apart ways in which he should go; especially as they relate with anything having to do with slaughters to Yehovah. I am sure this is mainly due to our perverted “Christian” understanding which we have learned from our fathers; worthless and unprofitable things.

The Hebrew word se-i-rim’ is translated in many ways; goats, demons, shaggy, he goats, fauns, devils, bucks. But to truly understand it’s use here, it must be understood in the context in which it is written.

The two verses just before it gave us (Yehovah’s son, Israel) the ways in which we were supposed to slaughter our cattle, sheep and goats.

To the end, that Israel’s seed shall come with their slaughterings which they [were] slaughtering in the open field, and come to Yehovah to the door of the tent of meeting, to the priest, and he [the man] shall slaughter His Thanksgiving Slaughter to Yehovah. And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of Yehovah at the door of the tent of meeting, and burn the fat for a sweet aroma to Yehovah. (Lev 17:5-6)

This word se-i-rim’ is being juxtaposed with the phrase “after whom they went a whoring.” Have we been whoring with goats? Demons? Or with other elohim besides Yehovah?

Meat sacrificed to idols - USDAIn my humble opinion it appears that any animal NOT slaughtered to Yehovah, and in accordance to His statutes (Leviticus 17 has all 5 of them), is an animal slaughtered to se-i-rim’. The meat that comes from all the grocery stores in the UNITED STATES is slaughtered according to THEIR statutes; and the agency that supervises the adherence to THEIR regulations is the USDA.

The UNITED STATES is the elohim whom most of my readers play the harlot with; so most of us do not have to worry about getting cut off from Yehovah’s people because we are not His. We still serve another elohim. When we are stopped by their armed forces and they say, “Your papers please,” your papers demonstrate just whom you serve; Yehovah, or the people of the land.

But for men like me, or men who want to become wholly Yehovah’s men, how we slaughter our meat is critical and if done incorrectly, can get us kicked out of the heavenly kingdom. This is the reason why James picked this 1st statute, “not eating meat sacrificed to idols” as the number 1 priority for the new Gerim (those just joining themselves to Yehovah’s kingdom) to know and understand. We talked about this in part 3.

So if we are not to eat meat slaughtered to other elohim and we no longer have a tabernacle, a temple or priesthood; does that mean that we can no longer eat cattle, sheep and goats? Does that mean we can only eat clean birds and wild clean game which we kill and drain their blood into the ground like water?

Well, believe it or not, Yehovah provided an answer to this question; but it is an answer that most of us with our perverted “christian” understanding will hardly even consider because we tend to believe that Yehovah does change and that His words don’t endure forever. Please, prepare your minds for the next part of this series and get ready to learn how we can receive a tremendous blessing from Yehovah.

So much to learn, so little time.

Meat sacrificed to idols – 6

Ezrach, Food, Ger, Hebrew Calendar, Leviticus 17, Leviticus 7, Meat Sacrificed to Demons, Meat Sacrificed to Devils, Meat Sacrificed to Goat Demons, Michael Didier Torah Teacher, New to Torah, Red Meat, She-la-mim, Tahor and Tamei, , , , , , , , , , , ,

In part 5 we saw what is involved for an an ezrach, Yehovah’s son, Israel, who wants to serve beef, lamb or goat to his family, servants, and the Ger who dwells with him, while he is in or near the camp. The slaughter of this animal is called the “Thanksgiving Slaughter” or  (she-la-mim zeh-vach) and is done in accordance with Yehovah’s instructions, NOT the Kosher, Halal or even the United States Department of Agriculture’s instructions. And the Ezrach who kills (sha-khat) it, is the man who also eats it.

  • He selects his animal male or female (at least 8 days old or older)
  • He brings it alive to the brazen altar.
  • Lays his hand on the animal and kills it.
  • The priest catches some of the blood and puts it on the altar.
  • The man now butchers the animal and gives the priest the fat to burn on the altar.
  • The man also gives the priest the breast for a heave and the right thigh as a wave offering.
  • The rest of the meat belongs to the man and is food for him, his friends and those under his covering.

There are three different kinds of Thanksgiving Slaughters; the thank (to-dah) offering (kor-vawn), the vow and the freewill. For the purpose of this series I have concentrated on the most common one and the one that only a son of Yehovah, theEzrach, may bring to Him. There are just a few differences between these 3 kor-vawn and this chart should help us see them quickly. In each case they come from the herd (cattle) or the flock (sheep or goats).

*And a bull or a lamb or goat that has any limb too long or too short you may bring as a freewill, but for a vow it shall not be pleasing. (Lev 22:23)

What happens to this meat between the time it is killed and the next morning is critical to the man that killed it; it is the difference between him receiving a blessing from Yehovah or a curse. Most of the instructions regarding the handling, eating and disposal of this meat at the end of this time period are codified in Leviticus 7:11-21.

‘This is the torah (instructions) for a Thanksgiving Slaughter of which he shall bring near to Yehovah: If he brings it for a to-dah, then he shall bring, with the to-dah slaughter, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and wafers anointed with oil, or cakes of blended flour mixed with oil. Besides the cakes, as his kor-vawn he shall bring leavened bread with a his slaughtered she-lem of to-dah (thanks). And he shall bring one cake for each offering as a heave offering to Yehovah. It shall belong to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the she-la-mim offering. ‘The flesh of a slaughter of his she-la-mim for thanks shall be eaten the same day it is offered. He shall not leave any of it until morning.
But if the slaughter of his kor-vawn is a vow or a freewill it shall be eaten the same day that he brings his slaughter; but on the next day the remainder of it also may be eaten; the remainder of the flesh of the slaughter on the third day must be burned with fire. And if any of the flesh of his Thanksgiving Slaughter is eaten at all on the third day, it shall not be accepted, nor shall it be imputed to him; it shall be an abomination to him who offers it, and the person who eats of it shall bear guilt. (Lev 7:11-18)

We only have one day to eat this meat, or two, in the case of a vow or freewill. It does not go into the refrigerator for a few days or into the freezer for months on end.

Now let’s find out how this meat is to be treated and who may eat it during this day.

Meat sacrificed to idols - place setting ‘The flesh [the meat of the animal] that touches any unclean thing [an object, a person, an animal] shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. And as for the clean flesh, all who are clean may eat of it. But the person eats the flesh from the Thanksgiving Slaughter to Yehovah, while he is unclean, that person shall be cut off from his people. Moreover the person who touches any unclean thing, such as human uncleanness, an unclean animal, or any abominable unclean thing, and who eats the flesh from the Thanksgiving Slaughter to Yehovah, that person shall be cut off from his people.‘ ” (Lev 7:19-21)

Any wonder why James in Acts chapter 15 chose meat slaughtered and eaten incorrectly as the number one item that the new Ger MUST NOT do? There are lots of ways, in relation to the meats, which we eat that get us kicked out of Israel; and getting kicked out of Israel means no eternal life. This is part of the reason we must begin to understand what things can make us unclean (ta-mei).

“Speak to Aaron, to his sons, and to all My son, Israel, and say to them, ‘This is the thing which Yehovah has commanded, saying: “Any man of the house of Israel who kills an ox or lamb or goat in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp, and does not come to the door of the tent of meeting to bring his kor-vawn to Yehovah before the presence of Yehovah: the guilt of bloodshed shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood; and that man shall be cut off from among his people. (Lev 17:2-4)

This is what His son, His Ezrach, is NOT to do. Now He contrasts this with what Israel’s seed, Israel, is to do.

To the end, that Israel’s seed shall come with their slaughterings which they [were] slaughtering in the open field, and come to Yehovah to the door of the tent of meeting, to the priest, and he [the man] shall slaughter His Thanksgiving Slaughter to Yehovah. And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of Yehovah at the door of the tent of meeting, and burn the fat for a sweet aroma to Yehovah. (Lev 17:5-6)

The very next verse is where we will read, in most English translations, the words, “meat sacrificed to idols” and discover what is actually being said there. But before we do that, we must understand to whom our meats are currently slaughtered.

So next time we will compare how the meats most of us eat are slaughtered and learn the judgments of Yehovah that we can expect if we will not change our ways, to His eternal and unchanging ways.
