Reflection
One by one we are waking up, the shells are falling from our eyes and the next great awakening is happening at the same time a great falling away. The separation between sheep and goats is happening. We must return back to Yehovah with our hearts, soul, mind… everything. We must shed away all that is not of Yehovah; if it does not honor Him we should let go of it. This is not easy to do and at times it can be emotionally physically and financially painful to name a few. To return to Yehovah is to return to Torah!

I think the words “chizru” and “te’shuva” need to be looked into in their contexts in Rabbinic literature. You can find these words in Jastrow, p. 446 and 1703 respectively. I recently read a little dialogue on a website, and on it a member of the Hebrew Roots Movement made a case for keeping Torah based of the word “te’shuva” as meaning to “return”-and by returning he meant returning to Torah. The author of the website (a mainstream Christian) responded by saying that “te’shuva” has nothing to do with repentance and based that off of how the word is used in Tanakh. However, it’s very clear that here in Hebrew Matthew (along with Rabbinic literature) that “te’shuva” can mean repentance in a returning sense.
Keep reading.

Tilling And planting seeds i’m growing crops in the land that was not it says there is meaning more than one person is being referred to. And these people were going to be afflicted by The people who believed it was their land. And this persecution was going to last 400 years. And it looked like for some of that time They were going to be working as fieldworkers in a land which Yehovah was going to judge because of their affliction on these people who would amount to 4 generations. And in the fourth generation after the 400 years they would come out of that land having plundered it for wages and come To Abraham was having the vision!
The second return involves Moses who was sent to this people to Bring them back to the mountain from which he was sent.
The third return or come back we skipped over, and it was the return of Jacob to his family having plundered the evil Aramean relative called Laban so the children of Abraham are the comeback kids! No matter where they are sent they come back. So yes Yeshua was calling them to come back to where they had come from. In these last few days of counting the Omer it is significant to think of returning back to Mount Sinai to Yehovah and his proclamation, according to the tenor Which he wrote a covenant full of instructions and wisdom and commandments and judgements, to which they must also return, and the kingdom ruled my of which he wrote a covenant full of instructions and wisdom and commandments and judgements, to which they must also return, and kingdom ruled byYehovah as King a Kingdom of priests to which they also must return. And finally to camp in which the uncontaminated spirit was placed amongst them so that they might hear his voice daily. To this they also must return. This kingdom will be re-established in the Imperial administration wait just above the atmosphere to make its move to bring this about suddenly. ♥️♥️♥️

Tsuvah , The noun from the verb meaning to return to the place where you started from, describes the whole scene, three scenes in fact. The first scene is Yehovah Showing Abraham a vision of what was going to happen to his family. At this time showing Abraham a vision of what was going to happen to his family. At this timeYitzkaq Wasn’t even a gleam in his eye! He was to have a seed, that is one seed That was going to start telling

Catch the pigs! Return of the King! The Imperial administration just above the atmosphere has drawn near!

Reveal a swine! Chase out the pig! He returned! The Imperial administration just above the atmosphere Is very near!
The more I think about these words in conversation with Yehovah and Yeshua The more I see a historically relevant catchphrase. When the greeks and Romans came they contaminated the land with Pegg herds making Johns message very relevant clear out the pigs, bang up the path clear the highway Because the King the heavyweight king is coming in! So we can rephrase it as Chase away the pigs! The return of the King, The Imperial administration above the atmosphere is coming in!
There are several interactions that Yeshua had with pigs, one in which he directly chased the pigs off the land. The message is a bit poor politically relevant than the spiritual repent!

In the parable of the lost son Yeshua draws on the elements of this announcement. The pig, the return, and the kingdom or imperial administration that sits just above the atmosphere.

I had another revelation, or so I believe it was, while paying close attention, when you noted: ‘ The NASB translators decided to use sovereignty rather than kingdom, though the word they are translating is MALKHUT כוּתְ לַמ ,from the root mem-lamed-kaf (מלכ ,(which is exactly what we see in Hebrew Matthew’ that is is the Root of the word we say when reciting the Shema “Malkhuto”
Thanks again Keith, this is truly inspiring and revealing/revelation!!!

Thank you Keith for the work you put in this. Thank you also Devorah for sharing the link. The wording “chizru” seems to go well with the recurring theme of Israel as a bride.

Wow! Keith as you were putting the word “repent” in context..I recalled Yesua’s Red Letters in Revelation 2:4-6. It’s consistant with todays lesson! May Yehovah Bless you!
This is one of the greek/English rendering of that text from verses 5 of Revelation Chapter 2. http://biblehub.com/interlinear/revelation/2-5.htm

We are currently living in what will be remembered as the golden age of podcasting, and this Red Letter Series is doing a great deal to contribute to what i believe will be the PRIMARY format of information exchange for years to come. These study lessons are timeless, easily consumable, shareable, audio only format is MUCH smaller files, and if I am worried about the size of files i am streaming, then certainly that is a concern for MANY people around the world. I think this is just fantastic stuff, and if people are receiving and understanding THIS information, then we are pretty much “rebuilding the Temple” … Or at least, building a platform on which the “Temple” can one day (SOON) stand tall. Thanks again for all the miles, years, sweat and tears.

100% agree, audio is easier to download. It must cost a lot less than video to produce. Although we live in Canada, here, internet is by satellite and it is not fast…imagine in third world countries.
