⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joshua 1:9 😇, I command you: Be strong and courageous. Never get terrified. Never be discouraged. For YHVH your Elohim is with you wherever you go.”
note: See awesome Joshua 1:9 song: Be Strong And Courageous (Joshua 1:9).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Philippians 1:21 For to me, life equals the Messiah. To [bodily] die is [to] gain [real life, 😇].
note: See amazing song: I Won't Deny Him.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Philippians 4:13 [YahShua the] Messiah gives me [so much] strength that I can do ANYTHING [he wants, 😇]!
note: See awesome Phil 4:13 song: I Can Do All Things. You can do anything with the help of Yahshua, the Messiah who strengthens you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:51 So David runs. He stands on [Goliath's gut]. He grabs the Philistine's sword. He rips it out of its sheath. David kills him. He cuts off [the giant's] head with [the giant's own sword]! The Philistines see their champion dead. They flee [like little girls, 😇]!
note: The Philistines were not intending to keep Goliath's promise that they would be Israel's slaves. Goliath was apparently overly optimistic about his competence to avert a war. War is confusion. War is never prosecuted in a rational manner. Goliath outsmarted himself.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ John 6:20 YahShua calls out to his disciples, “It's me! Stop being afraid!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Corinthians 16:13 Be on your guard, 😇. Stand firm in the faith. Behave as men [of courage]. Be strong.
note: Literally, ‘Act manly.’ See the Seeds Family Worship song which sets this verse to music.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:49 David slips his hand into his bag. He pulls out a stone. He slings it! It strikes the Philistine in his forehead! The stone sinks into [Goliath's] head! The giant falls on his face. [His body smacks] the earth, 😇!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:50 So David {Love}, without a sword in his hand, defeats the Philistine with one slung stone. He strikes the [giant], mortally [wounding] him.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 8:12 [YAH] says, "Don't call ‘conspiracy’ everything these fascists call ‘conspiracy’, 😇. Never fear what [faithless fools] fear. Stop being afraid.”
note: Don't believe the lies told to you by the newscasters.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 1:19 They'll fight against you, 😇. But they won't prevail against you. For I stick with you,” says YHVH. “[I always] rescue you, 😇.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 10:28 Never fear [people, 😇]. People [can only] kill meat-bodies. People lie totally powerless to kill [your] spirit. Rather fear [YHVH] who is able to destroy both spirit and body in Gei-Hinnom [Trash-Fire Valley].”
note: Gei-Hinnom= the trash and weed fire of the universe. Hell is permanent destruction, not conscious eternal torment.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 14:27 But immediately YahShua shouts to his disciples. He says, “Courage! It's me. Never be afraid.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark 4:38 YahShua sleeps [peacefully, 😇]. His head [rests] on a cushion at the back of the [rocking, sinking] boat. The disciples wake YahShua. They shout, ‘Teacher, don't you even care?! We're gonna’ drown!!’

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong, [alert] and courageous, 😇! Never fear! Never be afraid of the [pagans]! For YHVH your Elohim, the One [universal Sovereign,] goes with you. He will never fail you, nor forsake you.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:48 [Enraged,] the Philistine [giant] rises. He advances close to David. David sprints toward the [enemy] army to meet the Philistine.
note: True believers don't hide from danger. We rush into danger to serve YAH.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:16 So [David's top] 3 mighty [men] broke through the Philistine armies. [David's men] drew water out of the well by the gate at Bethlehem {Bread-House}. They took the [water]. They brought it to David. But David wouldn't drink one drop, 😇. Instead he poured it out [on the ground as an ‘offering’] to YHVH.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Chronicles 11:18 So these 3 [mighty men] break through the Philistine armies. They draw water out of the well by Bethlehem's town gate. They haul [the jug] back [~15km west] to [king] David. But David refuses to drink a drop. Instead he pours it out [as an offering] to YHVH.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 91:5 😇, never fear terror by night; nor any missile that flies by day.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Proverbs 28:1 Violators flee even when no one chases [them]. [Meanwhile,] right-walkers [stand] bold as lion[s], 😇.
note: Wicked people borrow their nations into bankruptcy to fight wars against people who aren't even their enemies. Witness the U.S.A.'s illegal wars against North Viet Nam & Iraq.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Haggai (Dancer) 2:5 [I'm keeping the] Word [of My] covenant [which I swore to you when I] brought you out of Egyptian [slavery]. My Spirit remains among you [Hebrews]. Fear not!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 10:26 So never fear your enemies, 😇. [YAH] brings every secret out into the open. [YAH] uncovers every hidden thing.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 10:31 So never be afraid, 😇. You're worth more than many sparrows!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 13:32 YahShua answers the [pretender preacher] Pharisees, “You go tell that [worthless, conniving, destructive, insignificant, transvestite] fox [Herod that the Messiah says], ‘Look, [‘Hero’]: I cast out devils and cure [people] today and tomorrow. Then, the 3rd day, [YAH] perfects me.
note: The Real King calls the transvestite ‘king’ a dirty animal. Would you talk that boldly to a corrupt governor? Herod shakes, terrified, thinking that ‘perfected’ means that Yahshua will steal the throne from Herod in 3 days, which in a sense Yahshua does. “To the Jew the fox is a symbol of 3 things: 1: slyest of animals. 2: most destructive of animals. 3rd: a worthless, insignificant man.” (Barclay)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 18:9 Then, 😇, in the night, Adonai [YHVH] speaks to Paul via a vision: “Never be afraid. Speak. Don't be silent.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 21:13 Then Paul answers, “Why are you sobbing? [You're] breaking my heart. I'm prepared not only to be bound [in chains], but also to die at Jerusalem [to advance] the Name-Authority of Master YahShua.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Philippians 1:28 And no matter what, 😇, never be terrified by your adversaries. In your enemy's faces, (your courage shines) a clear sign that YHVH is saving you while [he] destroys [your opponents].

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1 Maccabees 2:50 So now, my sons, you be zealous for [YAH's] law. Give your lives for the Covenant of your fathers.
note: Good advice. But that doesn't mean kill people or violently revolt against governments, however bad those governments may be. Violence, no matter how well-motivated, breeds violence.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1 Maccabees 2:62 So never fear the words of sinful man: for his glory devolves into poop and worms.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exodus 2:7 [Suddenly Moses’] sister [Miriam runs up] to Pharaoh's daughter. [Miriam] asks, “Shall I go and find you a wet-nurse from the Hebrew women, so she can nurse this child for you?”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exodus 7:7 80-year-old Moses and 83-year-old Aaron [face death, 😇. They walk into the palace to] issue [orders] to Pharaoh!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Judges 6:27 So Gideon {Chopper} takes 10 of his workmen. [They] do as YHVH ordered. But because [Gideon] fears his Dad's relatives, and the men of the city, he doesn't destroy their idol-temple in the daylight. He [smashes] it under [cover of] night.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:32 David {Love} says to [king] Saul, “Let no man's heart fail because of [this dumb giant]! [I,] your servant, will go devour this Philistine.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:35 —[So] I run out after [the beast]. [I] strike it. [I] rescue [the sheep] out of [its] mouth. If [the beast] rises against me, I catch it by its beard. I strike it. I kill it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 1:23 Saul and JAHnathan {JAH's-Gift} [raced through life] swifter than eagles, stronger than lions. The love [between them] was beautiful while they lived. In death [they lie] undivided.
note: Most translations of this verse are soft and mushy.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Kings 9:3 —Then grab this box of oil. Pour it on [JAHu's] head. Say, “YHVH decrees, ‘I've anointed you king over Israel.’” Then open the door. Run [away]. Don't stick [around to get murdered]!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Chronicles 12:8 The following mighty warrior men [from the tribe of] Gad {Troop}, (trained for battle, masters of shield and sword, faces like lions, [legs] swift as gazelles on the mountains), [race] to the wilderness cave, to defect [from Saul] to David:

⭐️⭐️⭐️ NehemiYAH 2:20 Then, 😇, I answer the [governor and his goons]. [I shout], “The Elohim of heaven [is] who will prosper us. So we his servants will [continue to] arise and build. You [pagans] have neither share, nor right, nor history in Jerusalem.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 3:6 I stand unafraid of 10 thousand [attackers]. They take their stand against me. [They] surround me, [pointing their spears in my face].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 46:2 So, 😇, we [true believers] never fear, though the earth disappears, though the mountains crumble into the heart of the sea.
note: Seeds Family Worship set this passage to music on their album, ‘Seeds Of Courage’.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 50:8 My Vindicator, YHVH, sticks close to me. Who dares fight me, 😇? I dare my adversaries to show [their faces] and attack me.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ JeremiYAH 51:46 “Don't let your heart faint, 😇. Stop fearing the propaganda echoing [in ears] through your country. One year a rumor floats in, next year another, [news of] violence in the land, ruler fighting ruler.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 8:24 Suddenly, 😇, a terrible storm rushes upon the lake. The waves crash over the boat. Meanwhile, YahShua [lies peacefully] sleeping.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 27:34 [The soldiers] offer YahShua a [mild painkiller], (a mixture of wine and myrrh). YahShua tastes it. He immediately [spits it out]. He refuses to drink it.
note: Jesus is the toughest man who ever lived. The world drowns in addiction to painkillers. Yet the Messiah refuses painkillers even in the most tortuous disaster a human can suffer.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 28:5 The angel says to the women, “Fear not! I know you seek YahShua, whom [soldiers] impaled.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark 5:36 But YahShua ignores the [unbelievers’ faithless] comments, 😇. YahShua tells the ruler of the synagogue, “Don't be afraid; just believe.”
note: It's best to ignore most of what faithless people say.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mark 15:23 The soldiers offer YahShua to drink [a painkiller, 😇,] (wine drugged with myrrh). But YahShua refuses to drink [the intoxicating drugs].
note: Yahshua is the toughest man who ever lived. If Jesus on the cross can refuse a painkiller, you can get off of those doctor-drugs you're using to mask your pain symptoms. If Jesus didn't need a pain pill on the cross, then you don't need a pain-pill to get through your day. The medicine makes you sick.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 7:25 —[No?] Then what did you go out to see? [Did you think JAHn would be] a man clothed in soft [fine] apparel? Look! People who dress in gorgeous clothing, and live delicately [in luxury, bask] in royal palaces. [Pampered princes don't eat bugs and wear hand-cut camel-fur, screaming “repent” in the desert, 😇!]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1 Maccabees 3:23 Hammer says this, then he leaps suddenly upon the Syrians. [The Hebrews] overthrow Seron and his host, 😇!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exodus 20:20 So Moses shouts to the [whining] people, “Fear not! For [YHVH] Elohim has come to test you, to put His fear in front [of] your faces, so you'll [stop] sinning!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Numbers (Journeys) 13:30 [Suddenly] Caleb {Battle-Cry} hushes the [fear-mongering] people facing Moses. Caleb [shouts], “Let's [march north right now to] occupy [the Promised land]! We can do it! [YAH gives] us the power!”
note: Caleb is not advocating war. He's saying that YAH can protect you if you go where he sends you. Caleb's name implies whole-heartedness.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 1:21 Look, 😇! YHVH your Elohim has set the [Promised] land before you! Go up and possess the land! YHVH Elohim of your fathers has commanded you, “Never fear! Never [fall] into discouragement.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 20:3 The priest says to the [praise team], “Listen, you who [want to] rule with EL. Today you walk [into a miracle-zone] to [praise while YHVH] battles against your [overwhelming] enemies. Don't let your hearts faint! Never fear! Don't tremble. Never let the [enemy] terrify you!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 14:13 JAHnathan {JAH's-Gift} climbs up [the rock-cliff] on his hands and feet. His armor bearer [climbs] after him. [Pagan killers] fall [right and left] before JAHnathan, [slain by supernatural power]. Then [JAHnathan's] armor bearer follows, slaying [whoever YAH left alive].
note: Notice the familiar pattern: with his supernatural ‘sword,’ YAH slays the pagans as JAHnathan, the faithful one, advances. The armor-bearer, with less faith, then takes advantage of the opportunity to draw blood with his physical sword.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 26:16 —You messed up, [General Light]! [Sure] as YHVH lives, you deserve to die! You failed to guard your master, YHVH's chosen [king]. Look! The king's spear, and the jug of water from beside his head, [lie here in my fist]!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 30:18 So David {Love} recovers everything the Amalekites robbed. And David rescues his two wives.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 21:17 But Zeruyah's son Abishai {Father-Of-Gifts} [rescues king] David. [Abishai jumps into the battle.] He strikes the Philistine to death. Then [king] David's men absolutely forbid [David to enter the battlefield. They say], “You will never again go out with us to battle, so you won't snuff out the ‘lamp of Israel.’”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:8 The following are the names of the mighty men David [led]: Ish-Boshet {Man-of-Baal} [aka Adino the Spear] (aka ‘Skill’). He sat in the seat [of] chief among the captains. [Adino single-handedly] lifted up his spear against 800 [warriors], 😇! He killed them [all] in one [day].
note: Or ‘Josheb-Basshebeth, a Tahkemonite’.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:17 David {Love} said, “YHVH, far be it from me to [drink] this water. That would be [like drinking] the blood of the men who went risking their lives to [get it]!” So David refused to drink it, 😇. These sorts of [heroic] exploits [were normal for] these 3 mighty [men].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:18 And Abishai {Father-Of-Gifts}, the brother of Zeruyah's son Joab {JAH-Dad}, was chief among [David's] 30 [top colonels]. Abishai lifted up his spear against 300 [murderers], 😇. He executed them. This put [Abishai's] name in the league with the [top] three [most valiant men in Israel].
note: See 1Chr27:1.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:20 And Yahoyada's son BenaYAH {YAH-Built}, the son of a valiant man from Kabze'El {El-Gathered}, performed many feats, 😇. He murdered two lion-like men from Moab. And during a snow-blizzard, [BenaYAH stormed] down into a [slippery ice] pit to kill a lion!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Kings 19:6 IsaiYah answers [Judea's leaders], “Say this to your master [Hezekiah]: ‘YHVH says, “Never fear the words you've heard. [Ignore the insults which] the servants of Assyria's Emperor [hurl to] blaspheme Me.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 46:3 [We believers stand strong, 😇, while] ocean-waters roar and boil, [while earth's] hills quake in [swelling] tsunamis. Selah {Dramatic-Break}.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Proverbs 3:25 😇, never [feel] afraid of sudden terror, nor of coming destruction [caused by] wicked [people].
note: Never fear ‘terrorists’.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ IsaiYAH 51:7 —Listen to me, you who recognize righteousness, [you] people who [guard] my law in [your] heart[s]. Never fear the reproach of mortals, 😇. Never let their insults depress you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ezekiel 3:9 I'm making your forehead like a diamond, harder than flint, 😇! So never fear [your persecutors]. Never get depressed by the [ugly/intimidating] looks the traitor-pack [shoot at you].”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 3:4 JAHn [the Immerser] wears clothing made of camel's hair, [tied with] a leather belt around his waist. [For food,] JAHn eats locusts & wild honey [from wild angry bee-swarms], 😇!
note: John was tougher than anyone you've ever met. He lived on a diet centered on raw grasshoppers. He fought wild bees for their honey.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matthew 17:7 YahShua comes and touches [Peter, James & JAHn]. [YahShua laughs,] “Get up. Stop being afraid.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Luke 9:51 The time draws near for YahShua's Ascension [to heaven], 😇. YahShua resolutely sets his face. He travels to [be murdered in] Jerusalem.
note: Knowing the religious hypocrites there will kill him.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ John 12:27 —Now my soul lies troubled! Yet what [do you think I] I'll say? ‘Father, save me from this hour [of pain]’? No! I came [to earth] to go through this time of [torture, rejection, betrayal and death, 😇].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brothers, be strong, united with Adonai [YHVH], wrapped in His mighty power.
note: See great Eph 6:10 scripture song.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ephesians 6:19 And pray for me that [YAH] gives me [His] Words, so I'll [continue] to [defy death by] boldly opening my mouth to make known the mysteries of [his] Amazing Revelation[s].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Philippians 1:20 For I live in eager expectation that I'll never be ashamed, 😇. I hope to always stay totally bold, so that now and always, my actions in this body honor the Messiah, whether I live or I die.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1 Maccabees 4:8 Judah the Hammer says to the men with him, “Never fear their multitude. Don't shudder at their assault.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 9:1 Listen, you who [want to] rule with EL: You [nomads] come to pass over [the] Jordan [river any] day now. [You] invade and take [the countries of 7] nations bigger and stronger than you, [filled with] huge [military] cities fortified “up to the sky.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Deuteronomy 31:23 Then Moses gives Nun's son JAHshua a commission. [Moses] quotes [YHVH], “Be strong. [Stay] full of courage. You soon bring the children of Israel into the land I swore to [give] them. I forever [stay] with you.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joshua 10:9 So JAHshua rushes [his praise-warriors] toward [the 5 attacking armies. The Israelis] travel uphill from Gilgal {Wheel} all night.
note: Rush toward your attackers. YHVH will save you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joshua 10:25 Then JAHshua says to [Israel's leaders], “You must never fear. Never get discouraged. Be strong! Be resolute! YHVH will [assassinate] all your enemies who fight you.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Judges 6:14 YHVH looks [down] on Gideon {Hacker}. [YAH] says [through his angel], “[I like your toughness.] Go in that [spirit of strength]. You'll save Israel from the hand of the Midianite {Brawlers}. I've sent you.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:34 David {Love} answers [king] Saul, “[I,] your servant, keep [my] father's sheep. Frequently, up stalks a lion or a bear. It grabs a lamb out of the flock.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 17:40 So David {Love} takes his staff in his hand. He chooses 5 smooth stones from the brook. He puts them in the pouch of his shepherd's bag. His sling in hand, he draws near to the [towering] Philistine.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 26:7 So David and Abishai {Father-Of-Gifts} sneak down [the desert hillside]. [They infiltrate king Saul's army] by night. They see Saul lying snoozing inside the barricade. His spear [stands] stuck in the ground at his head. Abner {Father-Of-Light} and [thousands of] sleeping [warriors] lie encircling [Saul].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Samuel 30:10 Then David and his remaining 400 [warriors charge up the hill]. They chase [the kidnapper-army].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 2:19 AsahEl chases fast as a deer after [General] Abner {Father-Of-Light}. [AsahEL] never turns to the right hand nor to the left from gaining on Abner.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 5:7 Despite [the Jebusite mockers,] David takes the fortress of Zion [at the heart of Jerusalem]. [It comes to be known as] “the City of David {Love}.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:9 After [‘Adino The Spear’ ranked] ELeazar {El's-Aid} the son of Dodo {Love} of the clan of Ahoh {Brother}, one of the 3 mighty [men] surrounding David. These [‘three’] defied the Philistine [army] who amassed [agains Israel] to battle. ([Many] other [warriors] of Israel fled [like scared little girls].)

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:10 Eleazar jumped up! He struck the Philistines until his hand grew so exhausted it cramped, frozen to [his] sword-handle. YHVH wrought a great victory that day, 😇. Then [Israel's cowardly warriors] returned to the [battlefield] beside [Eleazar]. But [they came not to help him,] but merely to strip [the dead of plunder].

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2nd Samuel 23:12 [Stunner] stood in the middle of the field. He defended it, 😇. He killed the Philistines, while YHVH wrought a great victory.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Kings 20:19 So these [232] young leaders serving [Israel's] regional chiefs [ride] out of [Ahab's] city. [North Israel's 7000 man] army follow the [chiefs]. [They ride into a battleground surrounded by millions of Syrian attack-warriors.]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Chronicles 11:6 Then [king] David says, “Whoever [runs] first to evict the Jebusite {Threshers} will be [my] commander-in-chief.” So Joab {JAH-Dad} the son of [David's sister] Zeruyah {Balm} attacks [Jebus] before [any other warlord can get troops assembled]. So [Joab] becomes [David's] top General.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Chronicles 11:20 [General] Joab's brother Abishai {Father-Of-Gifts} serves as leader of David's 30 [most valiant special-forces warriors]. [Abishai] gets his name ranked with [Israel's] ‘top 3’ [heroes] when he raises his spear against 300 [attackers]. He kills them [all in one day, 😇]!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Chronicles 11:23 Then [BenYAH] kills a 5 cubit [7.5 foot] tall giant Egyptian man, whose hand wields a spear thick as a weaver's beam, 😇. [BenYAH] rushes down to the [giant]. With a staff, [BenYAH] plucks the spear out of the Egyptian [giant's] hand! Then [BenYAH] slays [the giant] with the [giant's] own spear!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Chronicles 19:13 —Be of good courage! Let's valiantly [serve] our people. [Let's preserve] the cities of our Elohim. [I pray] that YHVH does what's good in his sight.”
note: There are no fighting words in this text.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Chronicles 28:20 Then David {Love} says to his son (Solomon {Peace-Man}), “Seize [life with strength, alertness and] courage. Do it! Never fear. Never [give in to] depression. For YHVH Elohim, my Elohim, will stick with you. He will never fail you, nor forsake you. You will finish all the work [required] to [put] the temple of YHVH [into] service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Psalms 56:11 I flee-for-protection inside ELohim's [heart], 😇. I refuse to [live] in terror. What can bags-of-walking-dirt do to [harm] my [immortal spirit]? [Nothing!]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ John 11:8 YahShua's disciples protest to YahShua, “Master, the Jews just tried to throw rocks [at your head to make you dead, bleeding and broken on the ground]! And you're going back to Judaea?”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Acts 5:25 Then someone [runs] in. He [shouts to] the council, “Look, the men you put in prison stand in the temple teaching the people!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1st Peter 3:14 When you, 😇, suffer for being righteous, you're blessed! As Isaiah says, “Never fear what others call ‘Terror.’ Never [let evil throw you into] turmoil.”
note: Isaiah 8:12 means to ignore war propaganda that labels its enemies ‘terrorists.’

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1 Maccabees 2:45 MattathiYah {YAH's-Gift} and his friends march around [Israel]. They tear down [hundreds of pagan Greek tax-collection] altars.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1 Maccabees 3:6 So the wicked [Fascists] shrink for fear of Hammer. All the workers of evil [shake in] terror, because salvation prospers in Hammer's hand.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 2 Maccabees 7:12 The king (and the [guards and royals] with him) marvel that this [3rd] young man's courage is so strong that he regards torture as nothing.

Exodus 2:2 [JahKebed] conceives. [9 months pass.] She births a son [Moses]. She sees [that Moses] has a divine beauty. [When she looks at him, it's as if she hears the voice of YAH.] So, 😇, for 3 months [JahKebed] hides [Moses from Egyptian baby-assassins].

Exodus 6:27 Then Moses and Aaron, [twin pinnacles of the Israelite family tree, again] unsuccessfully challenge Pharaoh king of Egypt, [demanding that he] send the descendants of Israel out from Egypt, 😇.

Exodus 10:26 Our cattle will go with us. We won't leave one hoof behind. We're taking those animals to serve YHVH our Elohim. We won't know which [animals to use to] serve YHVH, until we get where [we're going].”
note: Until we leave the world-system we can't even get a clear idea of YHVH's will for our lives.

Joshua 2:1 From [there in] Sheetim {Acacia-Groves}, Nun's son JAHshua sends two men to secretly spy [out the promised land]. [JAHshua] says, “Go inspect the land [and city of] Jericho {Moon-Spirit}.” So, 😇, the spies sneak [into Jericho]. They duck into the house of a prostitute named Rahab {Biggie}. The spies spend the night there [in the whorehouse].
note: Men of faith are not prudes. We can sleep in a whorehouse without sleeping with whores. And, according to Jesus, the whores are more likely than preachers to obey Christ! The apostle James (Christ's brother) praises this whore.

Judges 6:12 The angel of YHVH appears to [Gideon]. [It] announces to him, “YHVH is with you, you mighty man of valor.”

Judges 7:11 —You'll hear what the [attack troops are] saying. This will strengthen your hands to go down to [face] the [killer] host.” So Gideon {Chopper} hikes down [the mountain] with his helper (Phurah {Leafs}). [They eavesdrop] outside an [outpost of] armed [fighters] from the [multi-army invasion force].

1st Samuel 14:12 So the men of the garrison yell to [prince] JAHnathan {JAH's-Gift} and his armor-bearer: “Come up to us, and we'll teach you a [lesson]! So JAHnathan says to his armor-bearer, “Run up! Follow me! YHVH has delivered the [pagans] into the fist of Israel!”

1st Samuel 17:36 [I] your servant have slain both lion[s] and bear[s]. This ‘un-trimmed’ Philistine will [soon] be [dead] like one of them, because he defied the armies of the living Elohim.”

1st Samuel 28:2 David replies to [king] Achish, “Now you'll see first-hand what [we,] your servant[s] can do.” [King] Achish replies to David, “For that answer, I'm making you head of my [royal] bodyguard for life.”

2nd Samuel 23:11 (Below [Eleazar]) ranked Shammah {Stunner} the son of Agee {Flame} the Hararite {Mountaineer}. In a field [high] with lentil [stalks, Stunner fought] the Philistines amassed in battalion[s], [even when Israel's other warriors] fled from the Philistines.

2nd Samuel 23:21 [BenaYAH] killed a [spectacular, majestic, intimidating] Egyptian [hero]. The Egyptian [lifted] a spear in his hand [to hurl it at BenaYah]. Yet [BenaYAH] [ran] down to [fight] him. [With] a staff, [BenaYAH] plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, 😇. Then [BenaYAH] killed the [evil hero] with his own spear!

1st Chronicles 11:19 [King] David says, “My Elohim forbid that I [drink] this [water]. Can I swallow the ‘blood’ of these men who put their lives [in jeopardy]? They brought this water [at the risk of their] life-breath. So I can't drink it.” (These 3 mighty [men] perform [many] such feats, 😇.)

1st Chronicles 11:22 BenaYAH {YAH-Built} (the son of YAHoyada {YAH-Knows}), the son of a valiant man from Kabze'El {El-Gathered}) accomplishes myriad feats. He slays two lionlike men from Moab. Then later, on a snowy day, [BenaYAH rushes] down into a pit and kills a [real] lion!

1st Chronicles 12:15 These [heroes] cross [the dangerous, flooding] Jordan [river] in the 1st month [of spring]. They [ford the river while it] overflows all his banks! These [warriors] put to flight all the [pagans] of the valleys, both east and west [of the river].

1st Chronicles 13:6 So, flanked by the whole [throng] of Israelites, David {Love} mounts [his horse. He gallops 10km west] (to Baalah {Mistress}, that is, to Kirjath-Yearim {City-Of-Forests}, in Judah's [tribal] territory), to fetch from there the ark emblazoned with the name of “YHVH Elohim who dwells between the cherubim.”

1st Chronicles 20:5 Yet again war flares up with the Philistines, 😇. So [a Hebrew hero named] ElHanan {El-is-Gracious} (a son of Jair {Goldshine}) slays Lahmi {Food-Belly} (the brother of Goliath from Winepress-Town), even though [the giant slings] a spear with a shaft [thick] as a weaver's beam!
note: Goliath the Gittite. The method of slaying could have been supernatural, as at Jericho and when Peter, by merely speaking, killed Ananias and Sapphira.

Esther 5:1 Esther [wakes on the floor]. It's [her] 3rd day [of intensely praying while abstaining from both food and water]. [She feels so weak she can barely stand.] She puts on her royal apparel. [She staggers to the throne room.] She stands in the inner court of the Emperor's palace, opposite the Imperial [throne] hall. [Through her blurry, dizzy vision, she sees] the Emperor seated upon his royal throne in the royal hall, opposite the palace gate.

Job 31:34 Did I fear mob [rule]? Did I let the threat of [retribution from crime] families terrify me [into inaction]? Did I keep silence, hiding behind my [palace] door[s]? [No!]

Job 39:25 The horse laughs at war-horns, ‘Ha, ha!’ He smells the battle far away. [He runs to face] the thunder of captains, the shouting of [enemy soldiers].

Psalms 31:24 Stand strong, all you [believers] waiting for YHVH [to fix the world]. He'll give your heart strength [to make it through your life, 😇].

Psalms 91:6 Never fear the plague[s] that roam in darkness, 😇. Never [fear] the destruction that wastes [cities] at noonday.
note: lit. Never fear word-plagues, i.e. propaganda.

Psalms 91:13 You'll tread down lion[s] and serpent[s], 😇. Your feet will stomp down youthful lions and cobras.

IsaiYAH 44:8 —Never fear, 😇. Never be afraid. Long ago I announced your prophetic future. You are my witnesses. Is there an Eloah beside me? No. I recognize no other 'rock' [on whom you can build your life, 😇].

JeremiYAH 22:1 [Then] YHVH says, “[Jeremiah, hike back] down to Judea's royal family-palace. There speak the following decree:

JeremiYAH 38:8 Ebed-Melech {Worker-King} [runs] out of the royal palace. He [risks death to] speak to the [tyrant] king:

MicaYah 3:8 Nevertheless, 😇, YHVH's Spirit fills me with power, justice, might, [mastery & courage]. I [risk my life to confront and] declare to [the self-styled descendants of] Jacob [their] crimes, to [reveal to the people of] Israel [their] sin [and rebellion].
note: Judeo-Christians, listen up!

Luke 7:24 JAHn [the Immerser's] messengers [hike back to JAHn]. [Meanwhile,] YahShua speaks to the people about JAHn: “What did you [people] travel out into the wilderness to see? [Did you think JAHn was going to be some pansy preacher,] a reed shaking in the wind?

Luke 19:28 YahShua [shoots out that condemnation of religious phonies]. Then he marches straight up to [get murdered by the religionists and their political and military puppets in] Jerusalem.
note: Marching to his death.

Acts 16:37 Paul tells the soldiers, “The judges have, without trial, openly beaten us Roman-born [men] and cast us into prison. And now they thrust us out in secret? No! Let the judges come themselves and fetch us out!”
note: The word ‘citizen’ is often incorrectly inserted here in Bible translations. ‘Citizen’ can mean ‘freeman.’ But in decaying cultures, ‘citizen’ comes to mean ‘legally-bound subject.’ Paul is Rhomaios (Roman-Born) but not ‘Roman’ in the sense of being a legally-bound subject-citizen of Rome. For Paul has been born again into the Kingdom of YHVH. So any association between Paul and Rome was merely due to his physical body having originated in a territory (Tarsus) claimed by Rome.

Acts 27:40 The shipsmen cut loose the anchors and leave them in the sea. Then the [men] untie the ropes that hold the rudders. Then they hoist the foresail to the wind. [Whoosh!] We sail [speeding] for the beach, 😇!

2nd Corinthians 3:12 This [new covenant] gives us [believers] overwhelming confidence, 😇. So we can be very bold.

Philippians 1:14 Also, my [endurance of] prison gives confidence to most of the brothers (who live united with the Adonai). So they grow much bolder in fearlessly speaking [YAH's] Word.

Philippians 2:18 Likewise, [though the religionists continue to imprison, beat and even kill me,] you too, 😇, should be glad and rejoice with me.

1 Maccabees 2:51 Call to remembrance what [great] acts our fore-fathers wrought in their time[s]. Thus will you receive great honor, and an everlasting name.

1 Maccabees 2:54 Our fore-father Phineas {Snake-Mouth}, by being zealous and fervent, obtained the covenant of an everlasting priesthood.
note: Yet murdering people is not a solution to a problem. Don't emulate Phineas by throwing javelins through sinners. Emulate his zeal.

Numbers (Journeys) 32:21 —Prepare yourselves. Then rush over [the] Jordan [river valley] before YHVH's [watching eyes]. [Stay beside us] until YAH has driven out HIS enemies from before HIM.
note: YAH, not Israel, drives out the enemies. Therefore, being "armed" is a bad and unnecessary translation.

Joshua 2:23 So, 😇, the two [Hebrew] spies sneak back [east toward Moab. They] hike down hills. [They swim] across [the Jordan river. They wash up on its east bank.] [They] run to (Nun's son) JAHshua. They tell [JAHshua] everything that happened to them:

Joshua 10:7 So JAHshua ascends from Gilgal {Wheel}, followed by all [Israel's praise] warriors, and all [Israel's] masterful [men & women] of valor.

Joshua 11:7 So JAHshua advances with his [praise] warriors. They near the [spring] waters of Merom {Heights}. [JAHshua] suddenly drops [a praise attack] upon the [pagans]!

Judges 14:5 So SunRay hikes down [west] with his Dad and Mom toward Timnath {Grab-Town}. [SunRay, being faster, runs ahead. He leaves his Mom & Dad in the dust. SunRay sprints] into the vineyards of Timnath. Suddenly a young lion roars! It charges [SunRay].

1st Samuel 14:4 JAHnathan slips between [rock] crevices. He struggles nearer to invade the Philistines’ garrison. [He looks up] on one side [of Hidden-Pass]. He sees a sharp boulder named Bozez {Shiny}. [It's mirrored by] another sharp boulder named Seneh {Thorn} on the other side.

1st Samuel 26:5 [Night falls.] David jumps up. He sneaks across [the moonlit tundra] to [king] Saul's war-camp. [There] David sees a barricade [packed] with [Saul's] 3000 slumbering [warriors]. At the center [of the rings of soldiers, David sees] Saul [sleeping near] army-General (Abner {Father-Of-Light} the son of Ner {Lamp}).

1st Samuel 26:14 Then David cries, “[Warriors of Saul! General] Abner, son of Ner! [Wake up!] Answer, Abner!” Abner [startles from sleep. He] yells, “Who are you, screaming at the king?”

1st Samuel 26:15 David yells back to [General] Abner {Father-Of-Light}, “Aren't you a valiant man, without equal in Israel? So why have you failed to guard your lord the king? A conspirator invaded [your war camp tonight] to destroy your lord, [Israel's] king!

2nd Samuel 1:22 JAHnathan's bow [and arrow] never shrunk back from [drawing] the blood of [the terrorists he] killed. The sword of Saul [always] returned full [of blood] from the fat-meat of [evil] heroes.
note: However, it should be obvious that Saul & Jonathan's story is a cautionary tale against war, not a recommendation of warfare.

2nd Samuel 18:2 Then [king] David deploys 1/3 of [his warriors] under the [guiding] hand of [General] Joab {JAH-Dad}, and 1/3 under the hand of Joab's brother Abishai {Father-Of-Gifts} the son of Zeruyah {Balm}, and 1/3 under the hand of Ittai {Companion} from Gath {WinePress-Town}. Then king [David] announces to [his soldiers], “I'm resolved to go out [to battle] beside you.”

2nd Samuel 23:13 Then one harvest season [David's] 33 chief [warriors galloped] down [through the desert]. They joined David {Love} in the cave of Adullam, while a Philistine [battalion] pitched [war-camp] in the valley of Rephaim {Giants}.

2nd Kings 11:7 The other 2/3 [of you men who normally stand guard] (half at the departure gate and half at the gate behind the [royal] guard) will rush to guard the temple on the sabbath. [You'll] surround the boy-king.

1st Chronicles 11:15 [One day,] three of David's 30 captains [ride] down the rock [cliffs] to meet David in the cave of Adullam. Meanwhile, the Philistine armies camp [nearby] in the Valley of Rephaim {Giants}, preparing for war [against Israel].
note: The Philistines thus cut off all communication and supply-lines between Bethlehem and Jerusalem.

1st Chronicles 20:4 [Time passes, 😇.] War flares up with the Philistines at Gezer {Cut-Land}. So [a Hebrew hero named] Sibbechai {Thicket} from Husha {Speed-Town} gets rid of Sippai {Tank}, one of the giant-spawn. Then the [Philistines] calm down.

NehemiYAH 11:2 The throng applaud all [us lionhearts] who, [despite terrible death-threats from pagan enemies,] volunteer to re-establish Jerusalem.

Psalms 27:1 YHVH is my light and my salvation, 😇. So who [else] is worth fearing? YHVH is the strength of my life. So who can make me afraid? [Nobody.]

Psalms 112:8 [YAH] establishes [the good man's] heart. Nothing can terrify the [law-keeper]. He [eventually lives to] see his enemies [turn or burn].

IsaiYAH 37:6 IsaiYah answers the [royal envoys], “Say this to your master: YHVH says, ‘Never fear the words you've heard. [Ignore] the blasphemy of the servants of the Assyrian Emperor.

JeremiYAH 1:17 So you strap up your waist-belt [for action, 😇]. Rise [up]. Declare everything I command you to [tell] the [sinners]. Never have a breakdown over their [menacing] faces, or I [might let you wallow in] terror before them.

JeremiYAH 19:14 JeremiYah {YAH-Rises} returns from Tophet {Drum-Smack}, where YHVH sent him to prophesy. He stands in the court of YHVH's temple. He addresses all the people:

JeremiYAH 44:20 Then JeremiYah answers the whole group: the men, women and all the [sinners] attacking him:

ZechariYAH 8:9 YHVH-Controller-Of-Armies commands: “Your hands must grow strong [and steadfast, 😇]. So, in these days, obediently hear these words. [They echo the] commands [spoken] from the mouths of the prophets who [spoke back] in the [old] days when [engineers] laid the foundation of the temple of YHVH-King-of-all-multitudes. [These commands enabled workers] to build [Solomon's original] temple.

Luke 1:30 The angel comforts Mary: “Never fear, Mary. You have found favor with [YHVH] the Eloah.

Luke 23:52 Joseph storms [right up] to [tax-czar] Pilate. [Joseph] asks for the body of YahShua. [Pilate agrees.]

John 7:26 —Look, 😇! YahShua speaks [frankly,] boldly. The [murderous rogue priests stand] dumbfounded before him. Have the ‘authorities’ actually concluded that [YahShua Josephson] is the Messiah?

John 8:20 YahShua speaks these words while [he] teaches in the Temple treasury, [the most heavily guarded location in the Middle-East, a fortress controlled by his assassins, 😇]. Yet no man [can lay] a hand on YahShua. [No matter how hard his attackers try to grab him and kill him,] it's not yet his time [to die].

John 10:23 So YahShua, [risking his life, draws another murder attempt. He boldly] walks [into his assassins' stronghold] in the temple area. [He struts] down Solomon's Colonnade.

Philippians 1:22 Suppose I go on living in this body, 😇. Then I'll be able to carry on my [mortal] work. [It'll keep] bearing a lot of [spiritual] ‘fruit.’ But which should I choose: [conservative actions that keep me breathing, or risky, bold actions that get me murdered]? I'm ‘on the fence.’
note: Only YAH can say when it's time for me to die. I'll take life or death, whatever YAH chooses.

1 Maccabees 2:16 Crowds of [terrified] Israelites flock to the tax collectors. MattathiYah {YAH's-Gift} and his sons come among them.

1 Maccabees 2:27 MattathiYah [runs] crying throughout the [enemy-occupied] city. He shouts [at the top of his lungs,] “Whoever is zealous [for YAH's] law, whoever maintains the [Sinai] covenant, let him follow me!”

2 Maccabees 7:5 The [mother and 6 brothers] watch in horror as the [royal] executioners maim the [outspoken Hebrew] brother in every part of [his body]. Somehow he clings to life. So the [Greek] king commands [the executioners] to haul the [bleeding young man] to the fire and fry him in the pan. As the misty [smoke] from [the poor Hebrew's charred body] disperses throughout the [palace], the remaining [6] brothers encourage each other and their mother. They [shout], “Let's die like men!

Numbers (Journeys) 13:20 Test the land to see whether it's “fat” [fertile] or “lean” [wasted], and whether there's wood there or not. Be bold! Bring some fruit from the land, [since] now's the season for first-ripe grapes! [YUM!]”

Numbers (Journeys) 13:25 [The spies courageously brave death, 😇.] They search the [Promised] land for 40 days. Then the [spies] return [to Moses].
note: 40 = # of probation. The spies return exactly 6 months after the setting up of the Tabernacle.

Numbers (Journeys) 32:32 —We'll leave here. Before YHVH's [watching face, we'll] cross [west] over [the] Jordan river into the land of Canaan {LowLand}, to keep ownership of our inheritance-land on this side of the [river].”

Deuteronomy 1:24 So [the spies] set out. They run up onto the mountain. Eventually they [hike] to Eschol {Bunch-Brook-Valley} as they search out the promised land.

Joshua 8:3 So, 😇, JAHshua rises with all [of Israel's praise] warriors to go up against Ai {Ruin-Heap}. JAHshua chooses 30 thousand mighty men of [spiritual] valor. He sends them out [under cover of] night.

Joshua 8:11 All the people (the [praise] warriors with [JAHshua]) sneak up, 😇. They approach the front of the city. They pitch [camp] on the north side of Ai {Ruin-Heap}, facing the valley that stands between themselves and [the fortress].

Joshua 10:29 Then JAHshua [marches on] from Makkedah {Herd-Mark}. [He leads] the whole [nation] of Israel to [the fortress of] Libnah {White-Tree}. [Israel] overcomes [it by praise-power, 😇].

Judges 5:14 Out of [the] Double-Fruit [hills] streams a ‘root’ [of brave men to make praise-war against] Amalek {Blood-Licker}. Then you, Benjamin {Right-Hand-Son}: [your tribe] joins your nation. Lawgivers [march] out of [the land of] Machir {Salesman}. From [the tribe of] Zebulun flock [elders] bearing the rod of authority.

Judges 5:18 [The tribes of] Zebulun {House} and Naphtali {Wrestler} risk death [with us], [singing for] their lives, [defenseless] on the open [battle] field.

Judges 11:29 Immediately the Spirit of YHVH comes upon Jephthah {Wide-Open}. So he [gallops his horse] across the regions of Gilead {Monument-Mound}, and Manasseh, and Gilead's Mizpah {Watch-Tower}. Then [Jephthah] rides [further east] to [confront the inbred] spawn of Ammon.

1st Samuel 14:1 Time [passes, 😇. Every day the Philistine horde advances on Israel. King] Saul's [prince] JAHnathan {JAH's-Gift} [whispers] to his young armor-carrying-man, “Come, let's sneak over to the Philistines’ garrison on the other side [of Hidden Pass].” But JAHnathan says nothing to his father, [king Saul].

1st Samuel 14:8 JAHnathan {JAH's-Gift} replies, “OK, we'll pass over to the [enemy fort]. Then we'll show ourselves to the [Philistines].

1st Samuel 14:9 —If the [enemy soldiers yell] at us, ‘Wait until we come to you’, then we'll stand still in our place. We won't climb up and [invade] their [fort].

1st Samuel 14:10 —But if the [pagan sentries yell] to us, ‘Come up to us’, then we'll [run] up [and invade the fort. We'll assume] YHVH has delivered them into our hand. [We'll take the watchmen's response] as [YAH's supernatural] sign to us.”

1st Samuel 14:14 That 1st blow by JAHnathan {JAH's-Gift} and his armor bearer kills about 20 men within about [1/2 acre] of land, the amount a yoke-team of oxen might plow [in one day].

1st Samuel 17:22 So David {Lover} leaves [the food] in the hands of the custodian of provisions. [David] runs into the army. [He] finds and salutes his brothers.

1st Samuel 17:56 King [Saul] says, “Find out whose son this boy [champion] is.”

1st Samuel 25:20 So [Abigail] rides on [her] donkey down past [David's] hiding-place in the hill. She sees David {Love} and his men running down toward her. She meets them. [Despite her terror, she stands her ground.]

1st Samuel 26:6 Then David runs back to [his allies,] Ahimelech {Brother-King} the Hittite {Son-Of-Terror}, and Joab's brother Abishai {Father-Of-Gifts} the son of Zeruyah {Balm}. David [whispers], “Who will go down with me to [confront king] Saul in [his war] camp?” Abishai answers, “I'll go down with you.”

1st Samuel 26:13 So David sprints over to the other side [of the valley]. He stands atop a hill far away. [He looks over] the vast expanse [of desert] between [him and Saul's war camp].

1st Samuel 29:8 David {Love} objects to [king] Achish, “But what have I done [wrong]? What [fault] have you found in [me,] your servant? As long as I've been with you to this day, what would disqualify me from going to fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”
note: Various interpretations exist:
David loves fighting so much he doesn't care if he kills Israelis.
David is about to switch sides and kill the Philistines from within.
David is just saying what any warrior would say to avoid being seen as a sissy.
David is planning to do a Jericho-style praise-war in which David and his men sing, then YHVH kills the people who need to die, on both sides.

2nd Samuel 10:12 —Seize courage! Let's be men for our people, and for the cities of our Elohim! [I pray] YHVH does whatever He sees as good.”

2nd Samuel 10:13 So [General] Joab {JAH-Dad} advances with his [soldiers] to battle against the Syrians. [Terrified by a spirit from YAH,] the [Syrians] flee before [Joab].

2nd Samuel 15:29 So Zadok {Righteous} and Abiathar {Generous-Father} carry the ark of [YHVH] the Eloah back to Jerusalem. There they wait, [dreading Abshalom's invasion].

2nd Samuel 20:17 [General Joab] storms over toward the woman. She asks, “Are you Joab?” He answers, “Yes.” Then she says to him, “Hear the words of your handmaid.” [Joab] answers, “I'm listening.”

2nd Samuel 23:22 YAHoyada's son BenaYAH {YAH-Built} did [many] such feats, 😇. [His courage] raised his reputation up with that of [David's top] 3 mighty [men].

2nd Samuel 23:23 [BenaYAH] lived more honorably than the [other colonels of David's] ‘thirty.’ Yet he didn't rank with the top 3 [most valiant men in Israel]. [King] David appointed [BenaYAH] over his [royal body] guard.

1st Chronicles 11:10 Fulfilling YHVH's prophecy, the below-named chief mighty men join forces under David's rulership. They unite with the whole [country of] Israel to make him their king.

1st Chronicles 11:11 [To earn his place] among David's many mighty men, Jashobeam {The-People-Return}, a descendant of Chief Captain Hachmon {Skillful}, lifts up his spear against 300 men. He kills them all in one fight, 😇!

1st Chronicles 11:17 [King] David thirsts. He whispers, “Oh, I wish someone would give me a drink of the water from the well by the town-gate of Bethlehem {Bread-House}.”

1st Chronicles 11:25 Although [BenaYah] never gets listed as a member of the "3," he gains top honors among the "30". So [king] David sets [BenYAH in command] over his [royal] guard.

1st Chronicles 12:16 Also, descendants of Benjamin {Right-Hand-Son} and Judah {Celebrated} [sneak] to the [cave], [defecting from evil king Saul] to [young] David {Love}.

1st Chronicles 12:21 These men, (all mighty, valiant army commanders), help David {Love} fight [off] raiding bands [of robbers].

1st Chronicles 12:29 The descendants of Benjamin {Right-Hand-Son} (Saul's tribe) send 3000 men who have up to this moment loyally guarded Saul's dynasty.

1st Chronicles 12:32 The tribe of Issachar {Reward} sends all their kinsmen {~80km south} under the command of 200 captains who understand the times. They know that Israel must [replace king Saul with David].

1st Chronicles 20:7 When this giant mutant defies Israel, David's nephew JAHnathan {JAH's-Gift} (the son of Shimea {Proclamation}) gets rid of him.
note: #5221 nakah means strike or cast out.

1st Chronicles 20:8 These sons born to the giant in Gath {Wine-Press} fall by the hand of David {Love}, and by the hand[s] of [David's] servants.
note: As in the previous verse, it is possible that these people died by praise-warfare, not physical violence.

2nd Chronicles 23:8 So the Levites and all their [fellow] Judaean [conspirators] do exactly everything [high] priest YAHoyada {YAH-Knows} commands. Each [leader] takes [charge of] his men, both those coming on Sabbath guard duty, and those leaving for the Sabbath. [High] priest YAHoyada keeps the [previous temple guard] shift on duty.

2nd Chronicles 23:9 Then [high] priest YAHoyada {YAH-Knows} takes king David's spears and large and small shields from Elohim's sanctuary. He delivers them to the heads of [Judea's] hundred-man [work-crews].

NehemiYAH 2:11 But [no Jew-hating governor can stop an Imperial order]. So I [gallop ~900km west across harsh desert] to Jerusalem, 😇! [To keep a low profile, I] take no animals with me except the [horse] I ride on.

NehemiYAH 6:11 But I object, “Should such a man as I, [Israel's leader,] flee [from danger]? What man like me would go into the temple to save his life? I won't go hide!”

Esther 5:4 Esther [trembles]. She answers, “If it seems good to [you,] Emperor, [please, you] and Haman come today to the banquet that I've prepared for [you].”

Job 13:14 I'll take my flesh in my teeth. I'll take my life-breath into my own hand[s].

Job 39:23 [My horse laughs at your] rattling arrow-quiver, [your] glittering spear, [your puny] shield.

Job 39:24 [My horse] swallows the earth. His [hooves] thunder like an earthquake. The trumpet blasts [and he races forward into danger]!

Psalms 106:31 [YAH] counts the zeal of [Phinehas] as [a symbol of] righteousness [worthy of remembrance] for all generations throughout time.
note: The zeal, not the killing, is what's righteous.

IsaiYAH 7:4 —Tell [king Ahaz], ‘Guard your [thumping] heart. Calm down. Never fear. Stop fainting [in terror] over these two smoking torch-tails. [Ignore] the burning nostrils of Aram's [king] Rezin {Delight} and (RemalYah's brat), [king Pekah].

JeremiYAH 25:2 So this [poor, rejected] prophet JeremiYah {YAH-Rises} confronts all the [murderous leaders] of Judea, including the [tyrants'] minions in Jerusalem:

JeremiYAH 28:5 Then, facing the [rogue] priests, in the presence of all the people standing in the temple of YHVH, the [poor, despised] prophet JeremiYah {YAH-Rises} confronts [rich, powerful false] prophet HananiYah {YAH-Favored}:

Mark 1:6 JAHn [the Immerser] wears clothes [made] of camel’s hair, 😇. A leather belt wraps around his waist. JAHn eats locusts & wild honey.

Luke 20:45 The whole crowd stands listening. [You can hear a pin drop, 😇.]
note: Good education is provocative. It holds peoples' attention.

John 3:1 Under cover of dark night, one of the Pharisee sect's Jewish rulers (Nicodemus {Nike-Man}) [sneaks away from his corrupt paid-preacher party members to secretly] travel to meet [their hated enemy,] YahShua.
note: Nicodemus = Nike-Man, literally: the society held together by binding oaths of allegiance to Nike, the goddess of war. The fact that any ruling Jew could be named after the war-goddess shows how far the Jews had fallen into paganism.

John 7:14 Then, 😇, midway through the festival, YahShua [defies the threat of murder hanging all around him. He] runs right up to the Temple. He starts teaching!

John 7:50 Nike-Man, (who had visited YahShua [under cover of] night [for fear of] his fellow Pharisees), confronts the chief priests and [liar-preacher] Pharisees:
note: Nicodemus = The people of the goddess of victory, Nike.

John 11:9 YahShua answers, “Are there not 12 hours in the day? Those who walk during the day do not stumble, because they see the light of this kosmos.
note: Night=12 hours, Day =12 hours. Therefore when Yahshua said that he would be in the grave 3 days AND 3 nights, he meant 72 complete hours.

John 12:1 Then, 😇, 6 days before the Passover [festival], YahShua travels back [from his desert covert operations camp] to Bethany {Date-House}, [a short 2 mile horse-ride from hostile enemy Jerusalem]. There YahShua sees Lazarus {Elohim's-Helper}, the man he raised from the dead.

Acts 4:13 The [Jewish leaders] marvel, 😇, seeing the boldness of Peter & JAHn, whom the [leaders] conclude are illiterate ignoramuses. [The leaders] realize that [Rock & JAHn] had [lived] with YahShua.

Acts 4:29 —So now, Adonai [YHVH], see the [world-system] threatening us! Grant your servants total boldness to speak your word.

Acts 9:28 So Saul [risks his life to] stay with the apostles, 😇. He goes all over Jerusalem [heralding YAH's amazing revelations to Jews who constantly attempt to murder him].

Judith 13:19 Your confidence will forever inspire the heart of men to remember the power of Elohim.

Susanna vs. The Elders 1:46 Young DaniEl cries with a loud voice, “I am clear from the blood of this [innocent] woman! [I refuse to participate in this illegal stoning.]”
note: Under one popular interpretation of Hebrew Law, everyone in the town has to participate in executions. This ensures that every man, woman and child is sure that the guilty verdict is correct. This means that almost nobody ever gets executed under Hebrew Law. It's an EXTREMELY lenient system of justice.

1 Maccabees 3:4 Hammer's [fighting] actions mirror an [attacking] lion, like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey.

1 Maccabees 3:59 For it's better for us to die in battle, than to watch calamities [ravage] our people and our sanctuary.
note: Not really. It's better to love your enemies.

Numbers (Journeys) 13:21 So, 😇, the spies journey [northward]. They search the [Promised] land from the Zin {Crags} desert to [the plains of] Rehob {Wide-Open}, near the road to Hamath {Joined-Walls}, [a mountain passage north of Damascus].

Numbers (Journeys) 13:22 The spies sneak north through the Negev {Southland} [desert]. They arrive [17 miles south of Jerusalem] at [the ancient Societal center named] Hebron {Seat-Of-Society}, [a federal city] rebuilt 7 years before the [construction of the] Egyptian city of Zoan {Eastern-Nile-Delta}. There [the spies see] Ahiman {Gift-Brother}, Sheshai {Albino} and Talmai {Terrace}, all spawn of Anak {Strangler}.
note: Caleb later drives out the people of Ahiman. Then Judah's thugs kill Ahiman's survivors. Evil Anak was descended from the 2nd round of fornication between fallen angels and earth women: see Gen 6:4, Deut 9:2, Josh 15:14. Zoan was the location of the Exodus, see ex 1:10.

Joshua 10:36 Then JAHshua [races] up from Eglon {Calf-Jump}. [He leads] the whole [nation] of Israel to [the fortress of] Hebron {Society}. [Through praise-power,] the Israelites overcome [Hebron].

Joshua 22:15 These [leaders] rush at the [eastbound cattle-barons] in the land of Gilead {Witness}.

Judges 5:13 [FLASHBACK: Israel's few] remaining gallant [praise-warriors] stomp downhill [to the battle]. The [common] people of YHVH [stream] down to [meet] me, [Deborah. We dominate the world's] attack-troops [with praise-power]!
note: This verse is different in every translation. The idea is that ordinary people had the courage to face an overwhelming military challenge with faith.

Judges 5:15 [BARAK:] [Watch] my chiefs from [the tribe of] Issachar [march] with Deborah {Bee}, [leading] Issachar's [men]. [DEBORAH:] I send Barak {Lightning} on foot into the valley [of battle. Issachar's men rush after him like lions!] Meanwhile, the clans of [the tribe of] Reuben {Look-a-Son} [sit around searching their hearts, never deciding to act]!

Judges 5:19 [You] royal [sons of Israel] advance. [You] prevail! In Taanach {Sandy} by the waters of Megiddo {Rendezvous}, [you] overcome the kings of Caanan. [Yet you] take no silver gain. [You risk your lives solely for your love of Israel.]
note: This is not a glorification of warfare. YHVH won the battle by supernatural means, while the Israelites prayed and sang, similar to Jericho's conquest. For proof that Israel did not mount a military battle, see the next verses:

2nd Samuel 23:19 [Abishai] was the most respected of [David's] “Thirty” [colonels], 😇. He was their captain. But he never got included among the “Three.”

1st Chronicles 12:27 Plus YAHoyada {YAH-Knows} leads 3700 [helpers] from Aaron's clans.

Acts 21:15 Soon we pack our luggage, 😇. We travel up [southeast] to [get murdered in] the “City Of Peace.”
note: Marching knowingly to their probable deaths.

1 Maccabees 2:26 MattathiYah {YAH's-Gift} [fights] zealously for Elohim's Law of Elohim, like Phineas {Snake-Mouth} [who threw a javelin through the idolatrous] Zambri, the son of Salom.

1 Maccabees 3:16 Seron advances toward the [road up to] Beth Horon {Cave-House}. Judah the Hammer ventures forth with a small company to oppose Seron.

1 Maccabees 4:6 But as soon as daylight breaks [over the mountains], Judah the Hammer shows himself in the plain with 3000 [unarmed] men, who have neither armor nor swords [nor the training in how to use weapons].
note: And indication that Hammer may have been using praise-power.

Deuteronomy 33:22 To [bless the tribe of] Dan {Judge}, [Moses] says, “Dan [is a] lion's whelp leaping out from [the region of] Bashan {Fruitful}.”
note: Compare Gen 49:16-18, where Judah is the lion (v.9) and Dan the attack serpent (v.17). The chief city of the tribe of Dan is Laish (a poetic name for 'Lion'). Bashan is a fertile region east of Lake Galilee. Dan's settling there is described in Judg 18. The Song Of Songs speaks of lions' dens near Mt. Hermon.

1st Chronicles 7:11 The descendants of these ancestral chiefs of JediaEl {Knower-Of-El} multiply to number 17200 mighty, valiant men, organized to go out for battle.
note: Again, this could refer to spiritual or physical battle. "Soldiers" was wrongly inserted into the KJV text.

Proverbs 30:31 — [other marvels include] a greyhound, a stud goat, and a king against whom no [mortal] can rise up.

JeremiYAH 34:6 The prophet JeremiYah {YAH-Rises} speaks all these words to Judea's king ZedekYah {YAH's-Right} in Jerusalem.

Matthew 11:7 As JAHn's disciples leave, YahShua starts speaking about JAHn (to the crowds). [YahShua asks them], “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaking in the wind?

2 Maccabees 7:6 –[YHVH] Adonai Elohim is watching us. He takes real comfort in our [perseverance].” (They quote Moses' song, witnessing to the [executioners' stunned] faces by [singing,] ‘[YHVH] draws comfort from the [faith] of his [persecuted] servants!’

2 Maccabees 7:10 The [executioners similarly] make a laughing-stock out of the 3rd hebrew brother. The guards shout, “Stick out your tongue [so we can cut it off]!” He immediately sticks out his tongue as he bravely holds out his arms.

2nd Samuel 23:39 —[and lastly,] UriYah {YAH's-Flame} the Hittite {Terrifier}: 37 [mighty men] in all, 😇.

1st Chronicles 12:26 Levi's descendants [send] 40600 [men to help David].

JeremiYAH 38:1 Jeremiah [stands to] speak to a huge crowd of [combative] people, including [the officials named]: ShephatiYah {YAH-Judges} (the son of Mattan {Gift}), and GedaliYah {Great-YAH} (the son of Pashur {Liberation}), and Jucal {Potent} (the son of ShelemiYah {Thank-You-Gift-To-YAH}), and Pashur {Liberation} (the son of MalchiYah {YAH's-King}).

2nd Samuel 23:24 [General] Joab's son AsahEl {El-Made} was one of the thirty [mightiest men in Israel], 😇. [The other 29 were]: ElHanan {El-is-Gracious} the son of Dodo {Loving} from Bethlehem {Bread-House},

2nd Chronicles 23:1 7 years pass. YAHoyada {YAH-Knows} takes courage. He makes a [secret] covenant with the leaders of [Jerusalem's] 100-man [workgroups]:
AzariYah {YAH-Helps} (the son of YAHroham {Compassion-Of-Yah}),
IshmaEl {El-Hears} (the son of Yahohanan {YAH-Favored},)
