MICAH 5:2 Complete Jewish Bible

Micah 5:1... Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

But you, Beit-Lechem near Efrat,so small among the clans of Y’hudah,out of you will come forth to me the future ruler of Isra’el,whose origins are far in the past, back in ancient times.

Neither is there SALVATION in any other; for there is NO OTHER NAME+ under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Acts 4:12

That at the NAME of YESHUA+ every knee shall bow, of beings in Heaven, beings in earth, and beings under the earth; and that every tongue should proclaim that YESHUA+ MASHIYACH+ is LORD, to the Glory of ALAHA, His+ FATHER.
Philippians 2:10-11

So FOOLISH Was I ... Pre-PASCHA Meditations... Ephesians 1:12


Psalm 73:22-24
So foolish was I and ignorant; I was as a beast before THEE+  .....

PRE-PASCHA MEDITATIONS

A note to Syriac or Aramaic Christians: 

The time to stand united has come; the WHOLE House of Israel… yes, the WHOLE House… is coming under persecution world-wide, both the natural and the grafted-in branches. 

It is time to lay aside differences and seek The LORD in repentance, on our face.  It is clear that the 10 kings of Revelation 17 are actively pushing their agenda to eliminate all those who hinder their program.

Followers of Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA are the only ones on the face of this earth who can, through their obedience and their prayers, hinder their efforts.  The satan knows this, thus the persecution of the Whole House of Israel.

Also note:  I have used the form, Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA through-out, as found in the Peshitta, instead of the Jewish form of Y’SHUA+ haMOSHIYACH.

Meditations  for  Pre-Pascha
(The Passover Season, 2016)
+  +  +

Now is My+ soul troubled;
and what shall I+ say ...
FATHER,
save ME+
from this hour ?
but for this cause
came I+ unto this hour.

FATHER,
Glorify Thy Name.

Then came there a Voice from Heaven, saying,

I have both glorified IT,
and will glorify IT again.

John12:27-28

Meditation Verse 
Ephesians 1: 12

That we should be
to the praise of HIS glory,
who first trusted in THE M’SHIKHA.


The Literal Greek:
... In order for us to be** in praise of HIS glory, of the ones having hoped earlier in the THE M’SHIKHA.

** eis to einai hAmas =articular infinitive phrase-- eis epainon dogzAs autou tous proAlpikotas en t0 CHRIST0.

Now, from the Syriac / Aramaic translations of Dr’s. Etheridge, Murdock, and Lamsa, courtesy of Dukhrana.com :


- ܕ݁ܢܶܗܘܶܐ ܚܢܰܢ ܐܰܝܠܶܝܢ ܕ݁ܩܰܕ݁ܶܡܢ ܣܰܒ݁ܰܪܢ ܒ݁ܰܡܫܺܝܚܳܐ ܠܗܶܕ݂ܪܳܐ ܕ݁ܬ݂ܶܫܒ݁ܽܘܚܬ݁ܶܗ ܀
Ephesians 1:12 - that we who first hoped in the Meshiha, should be to the honour of his glory.
Ephesians 1:12 - that we should be they who first hoped in the Messiah, to the honor of his glory.
Ephesians 1:12 - That we should become the first to trust in Christ, to his honor and his glory:

Meditation

The KJV seems to say that the followers of Y’SHU+ are living such holy lives that they bring praise to GOD, for His great glory. It also seems to indicate that the First BELIEVERS have done this.

However, the literal Greek seems to say that we followers of Y’SHU+ are the ones BRINGING HIGH PRAISES to HIM for His glory, of all the persons who have first hoped in The M’SHIKHA.

EITHER WAY...
followers of Y’SHU+
should be doing both.

We should be bringing high praises unto The LORD for His great glory just like the First Followers of Y’SHU+ did.

In addition, we should be living in such a way that OUR VERY LIVES should be bringing glory unto THE M’SHIKHA.

Indeed, both are required.

Which
is
the hardest ?


+  +  +
Let us pray:

O LORD, we have besmirched Thy Holy Name.

Personally and collectively, we have not brought glory to THEE in our words, our ways, our lives, our assemblies.  

We have bickered amongst ourselves over petty issues. We live lives far from HOLY. We have not put THEE first.

We have not followed Thy words on important issues and have rebelled against them, fighting Thy Servants sent to us for correction.

Some of us have ignored Immersion, some Communion ... and some have done them "our" way instead of Thy way in Scripture.

Our tolerance of sin and worldly values have besmirched Thy Holiness. We will not stand united for Righteousness.

O LORD, it is no wonder that GOD is NOT "greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints" in our churches today. ( Ps. 89:7)

We have besmirched Thy Glory and THOU hast left us to our own doings, doings that reflect man instead of our LORD Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA. 

So, help us to prepare our hearts for Thy judgment, because of a necessity it begins at the House of GOD.

Let us receive from Thy Hand, O LORD, the chastening determined, that we may by our endurance and steadfast love of THEE, bear unbreachable witness to Thy SON+, our LORD and SAVIOR+ Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA… when troublous times come.  

Have mercy upon us , O LORD.
Have mercy upon us.
Grant us strength to endure
That which is ordained
to come upon this earth.
Amen.  

+  +  +
Worthy is the LAMB+.

Worthy is The LAMB+
that was slain.

Worthy is the LAMB+,
slain
from the foundation
of the earth.
Revelation 13:8


+  +  +

PRAISE and THANKSGIVING
be to The FATHER,
and to HIS Beloved SON+
Y’SHU+ THE M’SHIKHA,
and to
the Blessed RUACH HA KADOSH.

ONE GOD:
FATHER,
SON+,
and RUACH HA KADOSH,
both now and forever,
world without end.
Amen.
