Genesis 48:14  Israel stretches out his right hand, 😇. He lays it on (the younger boy) Ephraim's head. Then he lays his left hand upon Manasseh's head, intentionally crossing his hands, [thus denying] the firstborn Manasseh [his Superior inheritance rights].
Signifying the true Christians (born later) will enter into the Kingdom Of Heaven before Jews (born first). It's like making the younger son the executor of the estate, to the dismay of the older son. | Moses Sees YAH's Angel As A Burning Bush | Exodus 3:1  [Over the next 40 years,] Moses guards the flock of his father-in-law Jethro {Superior} [aka Friend-of-El], the priest of Midian {Brawler} [in Arabia]. [One day,] Moses leads [Jethro's] flock to the fertile rear [southwest] side of the desert [peninsula], 😇. [Moses] hikes to the ‘mountain of Elohim’: [Mount] Horeb {Desolation} {Desolation}.
YAH calls Moses where later Muhammad lives, on the Sinai peninsula. | Moses Journeys Back To Egypt | Exodus 4:18   So Moses [hikes down the desolate mountain, 😇]. He journeys back [across Arabia] to Jethro {Superior}, his father-in-law. [Moses] says to him, “Please let me travel back to my [Hebrew] brothers in Egypt, to see whether they're still alive.” So Jethro answers Moses, “Go in peace.”
Moses is probably nearing 80 years old. Yet he respects his father-in-law.Exodus 12:36  YHVH's [miracles] give the [Israelite] people [such] Superiority in the sight of the Egyptians, that [the Egyptians fork over everything the Israelites] demand, 😇. The [Israelis shamelessly] plunder the Egyptians.
This ill-gotten wealth becomes the source of temptation which brings destruction. | Moses Reunites With His Spicy Wife (& Family) | Exodus 18:1  Meanwhile, Moses’ father-in-law (Jethro {Superior} the priest of Midian) hears about everything Elohim did for Moses and for his people Israel—how YHVH [finally] brought Israel out of Egypt, 😇!
Exodus 18:2  So Jethro {Superior}, Moses’ father-in-law, [runs to tell the good news to] Zipporah {Bird}, Moses’ wife, whom Moses had sent back from Egypt [before the Exodus].
Probably at Ex 4:26 Moses sent Zipporah back, when Moses figured out this was not a quickie one-stop Exodus; that his wife and sons would be murder-targets. Or Moses and Zipporah were still having the conflicts exposed in the circumcision incident. The assumption that their relationship was stormy and/or broken is supported by the lack of mention of Zipporah beyond this chapter.Exodus 18:5  So Jethro {Superior} (Moses’ father-in-law) journeys with Moses’ sons and wife. They meet [the Israelites] in the wilderness camp, at the [base of the] ‘mount of Elohim.’Exodus 18:6 Jethro {Superior} sends [messengers] to Moses with this message: “I'm your father-in-law Jethro! I've come to you with your wife and [your] two sons!” Exodus 18:7 So Moses runs out to meet his father-in-law Jethro {Superior}. Moses bows [on the ground] before [Jethro]. [Then Moses] kisses him. After asking each other “How are you doing?!”, they duck into a tent [for refreshments, 😇]. Exodus 18:9  Jethro {Superior} rejoices, [hearing about] all the good YHVH did for Israel by saving them out of the Egyptian power-fist. Exodus 18:10  Jethro {Superior} [shouts], “Kneel [and adore] YHVH. He delivered you out of the power of the Egyptians, out of the clutch of Pharaoh! [YAH] rescued [His] people from under the hand of the Egyptians! Exodus 18:12  Then Jethro {Superior}, Moses’ father-in-law, lassoes a [goat]. [He] slaughters, then smoke-roasts it [to throw a party celebrating the wonderful miracles of] Elohim. [Smelling the smoke roasted meat,] Aaron comes [running] with all the elders of Israel to join Moses’ father-in-law. They eat [the feast] meal in honor of ELohim.
Again, the "sacrifice" is always a feast, never a waste of an animal.Exodus 18:21  Jethro {Superior} continues [inventing his man-made judicial system], “But you should choose (from all the people) competent men who fear ELohim: men of truth, [men] who hate covetousness. Set them up in a [hierarchal government structure]: over every thousand [families, appoint 1 county judge to supervise 10 town] judges who supervise a hundred [families each]. [Under each of these 10 town judges, appoint 2 community] judges, [each supervising] 50 [families. And under each of these community judges, appoint 5 neighborhood] councilmen [who each supervise] 10 [houses].
This hierarchal system of government is Jethro's idea, not YHVH's. YHVH's method of government is theistic anarcho-syndicalism, not authoritative hierarchy.Deuteronomy 33:29 You happy [blessed] people will rule with El {Power}! No [nation] compares to you, the people saved by YHVH. [He's] your shield, your rescuer, the sword of your Superiority. [YAH] exposes all the lies your enemies tell you, 😇. [So in time they submit to your authority.] You stomp down their high [occult shrines].” Judges 8:20  Chopper [growls] to Jethro {Superior} his firstborn, “[Get] up and slay these [two kings].” But the scared boy, still being young, refuses to draw his sword.
Clearly now Gideon is operating in an evil spirit, not in the spirit of YHVH. Righteous people don't command their young boys to kill people.2nd Samuel 3:5  And 6th: David's wife Eglah {Fresh-Heifer} [bears David] Ithream {Superior-People}. [David's wives] birth [him] these [6 sons] in Hebron {Society}. | Rebel Absalom Mounts His Shock & Awe Campaign | 2nd Samuel 17:25  AbShalom {Father-of-Peace} quickly promotes Amasa {Load} to General of the [rebel] Army, to replace [David's loyalist] Joab {JAH-Dad}. ([Note, 😇:] This Amasa is the son of an Israelite man named Ithra {Superior}. [Ithra seduced] the sister of Joab's mom Zeruyah {Balm}: AbiGail {Daddy's-Joy} the daughter of Nachash {Snake-Hiss}.)
1st Chronicles 2:17  And AbiGail {Daddy's-Joy} births Amasa {Load}: (fathered by Jethro {Superior}, the spawn of IshmaEl).
Here Ishmael's line crosses into the Hebrew seed, with tragic results.1st Chronicles 2:32 Yada {Knowing} (the brother of Shammai {Coverer}) [fathers] these sons: Jethro {Superior} and JAHnathan {YAH's-Gift}. Jethro dies childless.1st Chronicles 3:3 #5: ShephatiYah {YAH-Judges} ([birthed] by Abital {Dew-Father}; #6: Ithream {Superior-People} (by [David's] wife Eglah {Fresh-Heifer}).1st Chronicles 4:17 Ezra {Aid} [fathers] these sons: Jethro {Superior}, Mered {Rebel}, Epher {Gazelle}, and Jalon {Lodging}. One [of Mered's wives, Pharaoh's daughter] BithiYah {Worshipper-Of-Yah}, births Miriam {Bitter}, Shammai {Coverer}, and Ishbah {Praiser} (who fathers Eshtemoa {Hear-&-Obey}).1st Chronicles 7:38 Jethro {Superior} [fathers] these sons: Jephunneh {Ready}, Pispah {Disperser}, and Ara {Lion}.Job 13:8  [Look at me.] Lift up [your] faces. You [think your moral 'Superiority' makes you fit] to defend [your actions in court before] El {God}?
Hebrew transliteration: ?·faces-of·him you(p)-are-respecting or for·El you(p)-are-contendingJob 13:13  [Bildad tries to stop Job from condemning their 'Superior' religion. Job continues,] “Silence! Let me speak. I'll [take] the consequences.Psalms 33:16  No king has ever been saved by his army, no matter how massive, 😇. No mighty man gets victory through his Superior strength. Psalms 119:99  I [constantly] study your instruction, until I gain Superior insight to rebut my [fault-finding, critical] ‘expert’ [advisers]. Ecclesiastes 7:12  For perception [forms] a defense, like money is a defense. But the Superiority of knowledge is this: awareness gives life to those who hold it, 😇.
Wealth takes away its owners' lives, through worry and murder. | Only Humble Beings Are Truly Wise | Ecclesiastes 7:16 😇, never get [self]-righteous. Never [publicize] your Superior wisdom. [People hate a wise-guy. So they might kill you for blurting arrogance]. Why destroy yourself [by making other people feel stupid]?
This verse is certainly NOT an admonition to limit your quest for wisdom. It's warning you not to be a prideful, know-it-all smarty-pants. The wisest man is usually the man with his mouth shut, even though he has more wisdom to voice than anyone at the meeting.JeremiYAH 15:12 Can [Judea's puny] iron smash [the far Superior] northern iron and steel [wielded by the coming Babylonian invaders]?Daniel 1:20  In all matters of wisdom and understanding in which the Emperor interrogates these [4 Hebrew boys], he finds them 10 times Superior to all the magicians and astrologers in all his realm.Nahum 3:8 [The evil empire's capitol city shined, 😇. She looked] Superior [to the] grand metropolis [of] Thebes, [the Capitol city of Egypt,] enthroned [on the] Nile, encompassed [by] waters, walled [in and] defended [by] river [s]. Nahum 3:9 Allied [with] Put [and] Libya {Dry-Land}, [the war-state grew Superior to the] ‘infinite’ strength of Cush {Ethiopia} & Egypt. Luke 7:8 [I know you can telepathically heal people, because] I too am a man [my Superiors] set under authority. I have soldiers under me. I say to one [soldier], ‘Go,’ and [that soldier] goes. [I say] to another [soldier], ‘Come,’ and [that soldier] comes. [I order] my slave, ‘Do this.’ Immediately my servant executes [my commands].”Luke 11:44  Woe [is coming] to you, [religious writers, self-declared chosen saints, pretenders to] Superiority, hypocrites! For you lie like unmarked graves, which people walk over without realizing [they're standing on dead people].” | John the Baptizer Prepares the Way | John 1:15  JAHn [the Immerser] witnesses about [YahShua]. [JAHn] cries, “[YahShua] is [the man] I told you about, 😇. I said: ‘[YahShua] who is coming after me has [already] surpassed me. For [YahShua] is Superior to me!’"
Or ‘Yahshua existed [as YAH's Word] before I existed.’John 6:58 [I, YAH's Word] am the bread who came down from heaven, 😇. I'm Superior to your dead [worm-food] fore-fathers who scarfed manna-wafers. Whoever ‘eats’ [my nutritious commandment] ‘bread’ lives forever.”John 10:8 All [false religionists and politicians] who cut in front of me, [grasping for a Superior position over me,] are thieves and robbers, 😇. [My] sheep don't listen to [phonies].
This does not mean that all previous Hebrew prophets and leaders were thieves and robbers. It means that those who arrogate themselves to a place of honor ahead of Yahshua are thieves and robbers. People who try to make you swear oaths are thieves and robbers.
True Christians don't listen to sham leaders.John 12:25  Whoever loves his [animal] life eventually loses [all life, 😇]. Yet whoever [turns away from] his [animal] life in this world keeps [a far Superior kind of] life that [grows] into perpetual [zoe] life.
lit: hates his life.Romans 2:18 Do you, 😇, know Elohim's will? Do [you] approve of what is Superior because you've [been] instructed by the [scriptures]? 1st Corinthians 1:20  Where does [YAH's Superiority] leave the philosopher, the scholar, the world's debaters? Hasn’t [YHVH] the Eloah exposed this world’s ‘wisdom’ [as] idiocy, 😇?
Worldly foolishness: democracy, war, licensure, family courts, fiat money systems, insurance, Social Security, sermons/lectures, etc. ad absurdum. | Serving YAH Is More Valuable Than Everything! | Philippians 3:8 Yes, 😇, without a doubt, I toss [away] everything [the universe offers] to hold what is Superior: knowing the Messiah, YahShua my Master. Everything that the world and its religions can offer lay at my fingertips. But, to [obey] YahShua, I suffered the loss of it all. I continue to dump all worldly offers in the garbage, so that I can embrace [YAH's] Messiah.
Colossians 1:17 YahShua is Superior to all things, 😇. YahShua [as YAH's Word] holds the universe together.
“Yahshua esti pro all things” can also translate to: Yahshua, as “YAH's Word pre-existed everything,” or the even more mind-blowing paradox: “Yahshua existed before anything else.”Titus 2:9  Anyone bound to any obligation must submit to the [lawful authority of their] Superiors/masters/creditors. [We must] satisfy [and terminate our] obligation [s] well and completely and without any contradiction.
This applies not merely to slaves, but to employees, debtors, people under contract, oath, or any pledge, including pledges of allegiance. Of course, we must make every effort to NEVER get into any binding obligation, because obligations create master/servant relationships. No one can serve two masters.Hebrews 1:4 So, 😇, YahShua [has] become as far Superior to the angels as the Name-authority YahShua has inherited is Superior to the names [& ranks] of the angels. Hebrews 7:15 [YahShua's Superiority over Moses and Aaron] shines even more obvious, 😇, [because YahShua fulfills the need for] the appearance of another priest like Melchizedek {King-Of-Right}.Judith 11:8 For we [Israelis] heard of your wisdom and your policies. [Your Superiority] is reported throughout the earth. [Everyone knows] that you alone are [the most] excellent [leader] in the entire [Assyrian] Empire. [You tower] mighty in knowledge, wondrous in feats of war.
Flattery will get you everywhere. Judith appeals to the narcissistic General's grandiosity. | | | | | | | |
