http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt0.htm English HEBREW bible - Masoretic Text

This thread is for the purpose of exsposing common perversions of Scripture weather it be mistranslations/ transliterations or misinterpretations.

 

 

For the English reader that is interested in indepth biblestudy I suggest a KJV AND a "Strong's Exhuastive Concordance" this allows you to revert any word back to its orginal term and context. There are many website links with this (look at the study tools section in the margin -->)

 

The english versions of the word are not free from mis-translations. Please share as many as you like at any rate you like. I will be coming here to study what is posted to see if I see any I haven't caught.

__________________________

EXAMPLE:

Lk.14:26

If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

 

We know this to be an obvious mistranslation. The orginal Greek word that was translated "hate" is in fact μισέω/ miseō/ mis-eh'-o - and means LOVE LESS in this context.

Not only is this a use of the term, but agrees here in context with all scripture unlike the mistranslation, which is evident within the comandments. Ex.20:12 Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. Ex.5:16  Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God commanded you, so that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. Put God fisrt and give due respect to others - Mk.12:29-31,/ 1 Jn.2:9,11; 3:15; 4:20.... 

Oddly enough a muslim hadith tells muslims they should love their "prophet" (not God) more than their family. There is a saying that when muslims learn to love their families as much as they hate Jews then there will be a chance for peace.

Feel free to use any English source even though I'm mainly interested in the ****KJV****! Just List the source you use when doing so.

I will start it off with an obvious mis-translation.
Matthew 5:39
But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. (Is.50:4-9 *)

evil here would have been correctly translated Hardships. How the translators would have choosen Evil in this context is beyond me. ONE place such a translation would contridict the Word is Jas.4:7, when the correct translation agrees with all scripture.

For those without a Strong's or way to document such within the Greek here is a link of the term used in this area according to the Greek.

______.....*Turn the Other Cheek......______

In Matt 5 Yeshua builds a fence around Torah

Note the prior verse Matt.5:38 says its lawful to take an eye for an eye however this passage is directed to the Disciples of Christ in relation to ministry (Matt.4:19;5:2,13,16...) of the gospel (good news) thus the more edifying context of Matt 5:39 (Lk.6:29). If you go forth sowing seed and the truth offends (Gal.4:16) someone and they react from the flesh and haul off and slap you, would it be proper to forget your fruits in the spirit and result to taking your own vengance by striking back or would it serve your purpose (in Christ) to be the bigger man and endure this hardship? (as Christ did Matt 26:67)

When you "turn the other cheek" it immediatly causes the heartless attacker to consider his actions and your message!


One More for now! (this is Not a mis-translation but rather a relation!)
Note Satan name as it is given in the Greek:
Revelation 9:11 (King James Version)

11And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.

When we look at the term perdition in the greek see how it relates to Satan's name! http://www.studylight.org/desk/view.cgi?number=684
We also know what within the Word only one is condemned to perish by name and that one is Satan or "the son of perdition".
This name Apollyon in the Strongs relates back to the root which is the very Word that is translated perdition! # 622 &623 in the Greek!

Replies to This Discussion

I want to respond to a mis-interpretation i recently saw in which someone was using Amos 5:4-7 to say its a sin for ("fake Jews") to dwell in Bethel, Gilgal, & Beersheba today. (the reason i feel this is important enough to share is cause in modern times when many are anti Israel i wouldnt doubt many would jump all over this misinterpretation and run with it) Anyway, I guess i should start by posting these verses.

Amos 5:4-7

 For thus saith the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live: But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought. Seek the Lord, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel. Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,

 

Okay, first of all I will say more than 10 prophacies were fulfilled with the re-establishment of the territory of Judah and the regathering of Judah to its territory in 1948.

In relation to Israel and "Amos 5:4-7" the mention of "Gilgal", "Beersheba", and "Bethel" is in relation to idolatry not simpley settling (dwelling in) the land. G-D gave them the land (as an inheritance) in that they should seek Him (as long as they walked in covenant). vs. 4 agian stresses "Seek ye Me and ye shall live" vs.5 Seek not Bethel, or enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba for Gilgal shall go into captivity (as it did). Compare (Amos) -"Bethel... Gilgal... Beersheba" to Hosea 4:15;10:8 ! These were the seats of idolatrous worship of the house of Israel. "pass not"= pass not through which was necessary in order to get from the north to Beersheba. This trip of entering into Gilgal to pass unto Beersheba was a pilgrimage of idolatrous worship. This is what Hashem was against (Compare to 4:4; 8:14) The figurative of "paronomasia" shows emphasis and the Hebrew "Gilgal" galoh yigleh = the roller, rolling,shall roll awaythus be utterly removed (emphasis by the figurative Polyptoton). Hosea 4:15 "Though Israel play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Bethaven nor swear ("nor swear"? Compare to Amos 8:14/ nor swear: with them (the Israelite kingdom) “as the Lord lives”, “for if they say, ‘As the Lord lives,’ they, nevertheless, swear falsely” (Jer. 5:2). When they swore falsely, they would mention the name of Heaven, but when they swore truthfully, they would swear in the name of the Baalim.) , The LORD liveth. (Hosea) 1:7 "But i will have mercy upon Judah" / Amos 4:4 Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices every morning, and your tithes after three years:/ Amos 8:14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beersheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again./... Thus to see the context. Its like If the Almighty were to describe the pilgramage of muslims how they go to Mecca and they travel to one place to throw stones a Shaytan and all these practices. Thay are all idolatrous and not according to the will of Hashem they dont serve him thus he would describe the locations with condemnation it doesnt mean that everyone in these locations is in transgression but rather the practice being observed and how these places place a role in it and are capitals (symbols) of the transgression. Just cause a Jew may be found any any of these locations doesnt mean they are "fake Jews" Its when they go through the motions that center around these places and the transgression being made.

 

Chariots of Iron? Many claim that Josh. 17:18 and Judges 1:19 contradict one another.

Josh17:18 But the *mountain (har) shall be thine; for it is a wood (forest), and thou shalt cut it down: and the outgoings of it (har) shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, and though they be strong.

(this verse says they would capture the Mountain range /forest).

 Judges 1:19 And the Lord was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the *mountain (har); but (they- Tanakh) could not drive out the inhabitants of the *valley, because they had chariots of iron.

(So I see no contradiction cause Josh 17:18 only said God would give them victory over the mountain/forests Not the valley. The thing that was *physically identified as (the means of/ God) keeping Judah from gaining the valley is said to be the "iron chariots" but God didn't promise them this valley(at this time) )

Ex.23:29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. / Thus the Word wasnt wrong it wasnt God's will at this time. The Word clearly said a totaly victory wasnt gonna happen at one time. They were drove from the mountains even though they had chariots of iron but they were not driven from the valley for they had chariots of iron. Deborah was given further victory in due time according to the will of GOD.

Some point to Act.7:16 and claim Stephen made a mistake claiming the resting place was  Shekem,  when in Fact Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are buried in Machpelah
In Acts 7:16 the word used for "sepulchre" is "mnema"- a memorial, that is, sepulchral monument (which can also mean "tomb") / Where as the common word translated as "sepulchre" (tomb) is mnemeion (a remembrance, that is, cenotaph (place of interment): - grave, sepulchre, tomb) as in 13:29. Notice Stephen was speaking before the sanhedren and they didnt bother to correct him and all of them knew Jacob was laid to rest at Machpelah. Jacob's well was at Shekem. Genesis, Deuteronomy, the Book of Judges and Joshua hallow Shechem over all other cities of the land of Israel- /Yitzakh Magen, 'The Dating of the First Phase of the Samaritan Temple on Mt Gerizim in Light of Archaeological Evidence,' in Oded Lipschitz, Gary N. Knoppers, Rainer Albertz (eds.) Judah and the Judeans in the Fourth Century B.C.E., Eisenbrauns, 2007 pp.157ff.p.184. /. At Shechem, Abram "built an altar to the Lord who had appeared to him ... and had given that land to his descendants" (Gen 12:6-7). The Bible states that on this occasion, God confirmed the covenant he had first made with Abraham in Harran, regarding the possession of the land of Canaan. Jacob's name was called Israel thus this land given to abraham's descendants by G-D according to the covenant was a memorial unto Israel and the covenant made with it (him) not the physical grave. Machpelah is clearly the area Abraham purchased (tomb of the Patriarchs but in direct relation to the covenant made and Jacobs life the name Shekem was used to identify it./
THE BURYING OF THE PATRIARCHS (Acts 7.15,16)
It is recorded that there were two distinct purchases by Abraham and Jacob for the purpose of burying their dead : one a field with a cave (Machpelah) at the end of it, which was bought by Abraham of Ephron the Hittite for 400 shekels of silver (Gen 23.16-18); the other, "a parcel of a field" which was bought by Jacob of the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for 100 pieces of money (Gen 33.18,19). In the former were buried Sarah (Gen 23.19), Abraham (Gen 25.9), Isaac (Gen 49.31), Rebekah and Leah (Gen 49.31), and Jacob (Gen 50.12,13). So its obvious that Both locations were bought by Abraham and related to his descendants and certainly to Jacob and while Jacob was buried at the other location this one stood as a memorial.... feel free to comment on (Discuss this) this, I remain interested in futher discussions!

Joseph's Tomb is in this location and Joseph was the one Israel carried out of Egypt (by Moses and the Jews) to be buried in the land of Israel (Ex.13:19). A father of Israel son Of Jacob (Israel).
(While islam claims Joseph is buried next to this location, Scripture say differently in the book of Joshua (Josh.24:32). However Jewish tradition says it was Joseph's wishes that he be placed at Hebron as well, which may have caused the muslim stance. Josh.24:32- And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in a parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for an hundred pieces of silver: and it became the inheritance of the children of Joseph)

Some verses cherry picked and criticized by critics of G-D.

 Examples:

Cherry picking only ignores any context. This verse is in reference to Is.13:16-18/ It was said that G-D would raise up a people that take pleasure in killing them (as an effect of their wickedness and rebellion). It was NOT a Teaching to us to do so. (Is.13:16-18/ Pro.24:17) These people warred with G-d (and LOST!). The people that were used to do this weren't even Jews (or Christians) Those invovled wer Persians (Iranians)... Babylon/Chaldea.  Then is Iraq of Today (which borders Iran). A generation later (in relation to Is.13) it was captured by Cyrus and Darius the Mede (Appendix#57 of the CB). Babylon was of little importance at that time.

Another verse commonly cherry picked by those who mock and attempt to judge G-D's Judgements is:

2 Chronicles 15:13

To those who cherry pick this verse I say: Whats it matter to you? THEY made the vow. This is what they all agreed to. Here is the context:  2 Chron.15:12-15

12And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul; ***13 That whosoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
14 And they sware unto the Lord with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15 And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the Lord gave them rest round about./....

Those who dwelled in the Land had to agree to live according to its Laws (which is the Torah of G-d). Even before Israel entered the Land they had to make such a vow
Exodus 32:26-28 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him. 
27And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
28And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.... (So Be It, The Will Of G-D is True and Righteous).

 

Heb.1:6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God "worship" him. / Is a quote from Deut.32:43. It reads oddly Different in the modern bibles. This is Deut.32:43 (thus the TRUE sentence structure and context) " Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people. " so actually just using the English "worship" doesnt do the Word justice. It was first somewhat altered begining with the Greek translation then carried over to the English. The Greek Septuagint of Deut.32:43 "Rejoice ye heavens together with Him, and let all the angels of G-d worship Him. Rejoice ye nations with his people"/ I agree Yeshua is of authority greater than the angels and general prophets. He and the Father are one in essence (will) and those who rejoice are also one in that essence with them. BTW "the first begotten" INCLUDES Israel!

Hebrew Tanakh of Deut.23:43 Sing out praise, O you nations, for His people! For He will avenge the blood of His servants, inflict revenge upon His adversaries, and appease His land [and] His people.

I was talking with a few "Jews" in "Rabbinic Judaism" and their claim is that Matt.21:12 Mark 11:15 Luke 19:45, and Jn. 2:14-15 contradict and violate Torah (Deut.14:24-26). That Yeshua was attempting to "reform Torah".  That Jews were to exchange money at the temple Yet Yeshua "condemned the practice" boldly by zealously over turning the tables of the the money ex-changers". How are we to compare these verses in context?

........................

Some feed back I have received from discussions elsewhere:

"Matthew: 21:12 moneychangers – The reference is to Money Changers who would exchange various unkosher coins (such as Roman coins) for kosher shekels for the Temple Tax. The practice is mentioned in the Mishna:
On
 the fifteenth of the same month [Adar] 
they set up money changers’ tables in the provinces.
On the twenty-fifth [of Adar] they set them up 
in the Temple. …
(m.Shekalim 1:3)

They may have been exchanging Roman coins with pagan images on them (see comments to Lk. 20:22-25) for kosher Temple coins. Also, because of the burden of the journey to the Temple people would convert shekels to darics for the journey and exchange the darics back to shekels upon reaching the Temple (as stated in m.Shek. 2:1).

Yeshua sees them as a robber’s (thieves) den (see Mt. 21:13). This may be because they were taking advantage and not making fair exchanges, or it may be because they were extracting the tax from people annually rather than just once in their lifetime (see comments to Mt. 17:24-27)." /The currency of Israeli Jews went towards tithes and temple finances, to mix it with another currency (and system) was to take away from that which was specifically for Jews and pervert the community as a whole. Mention of these people as thieves (robbers) shows that they were giving unfair exchanges. The people traveled to this location to buy these things at this time each year thus those who had their minds on money knew that their products would sell (Supply and demand), thus they could ask unfair prices (knowing that someone would pay it. 

Pro.20:10 Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to  the LORD. (vs.23; 11:1 A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.; 16:11 A just weight and balance are the Lord's: all the weights of the bag are his work./ see note Companion Bible 3:32, Deut.25:13)
.............
"A Marginal note in a versified 8th century Bible manuscript known as the Aurora of Peter Riga gives a citation on this event from the Goodnews according to the Hebrews:

In the Gospel books which the Nazarenes use we read: 
Rays went forth from his eyes,
by which they were frightened and fled.

This is likely the source for a similar comment made by the fourth century “Church Father” Jerome who elsewhere frequently quotes from the Goodnews according to the Hebrews gives the following citation without giving a source:

For a certain fiery and starry light radiated
from his eyes and the majesty of the Godhead
gleamed in his face.
(Jerome; Commentary on Matthew 21:12)

This reminds us of the shining face of Moshe (Ex. 34:29-35) and a similar tradition about Enoch (1Enoch 38:4; 39:14; 2Enoch 69:10-12; 70:2; Jasher 3:20) We read elsewhere about Yeshua’s face shining (Mt. 17:2 = Lk. 9:29)."

Harming others

Some ask and some even assert that Jonathan and David were gay so I wanted to address that here.

Verses misunderstood and used for bringing this up are:

2 Sam.1:26 " I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women."

1 Sam.18:1 "And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul"

 No there is no reason to think they were gay. 1 Sam.18:1,3 (2 Sam.1:26) "The two souls were knit and one loved the other as he loved his own soul, this is a Maternal/ brotherly love. Jonathan at this time was about 40yrs old. He was about 25 yrs older than David. 1 Sam.18:2 says Saul took him that day and would no longer let him go home to his fathers house. King Saul (Jonathans father) gave his daughter unto David (1 Sam.18:17) and Saul made him his son in law (1 Sam.18:18,21,26,...) to the king. Naturally this would have made Jonathan and David like "brothers" (2 Sam.1:26) in the Royal family (Brother In Law). There was a covenant made between them(1 Sam.18:3).

Dibuk Chaverim translates as "cleaving to friends." The word dibbuk comes from the Hebrew root dalet-bet-kuf meaning "to cling, be attached, glued." Chaverim translates as "friends" and comes from the Hebrew root chet-vet-reish meaning "to be joined" or "to unite." - See more at: http://www.reformjudaism.org/cleaving-friends-middah-dibuk-chaverim...

Look at the gay agenda garbage (perversion of the Word):

Matt.8 has nothing to do with a gay couple. I do agree that Matt 19 can be related to people born with the unclean lust of homosexuality (based on their prior spiritual state) but lets be clear of the terminology used: The word *eunuch in its most basic form is to mention one who doesn't take part in natural mating for whatever the reason (good or bad) /celibate, impotence, ... It does Not mean homosexual, however a homosexual could be seen as a eunuch, as well as one who chooses to refrain from (natural) sexual affection, and one who physically becomes celibate either buy surgery or injury or choice.
Eunuch G#2135- 1) an emasculated man 2) One naturally incapacitated (a) for marriage (b) begetting children (celibate) 3) refraining from natural sexual bonds for one reason or the other (injury, surgery, sexual immorality). (Note homosexuals don’t have such bonds.)... This portion Never condoned homosexual activity or lifestyles which the Word Clearly condemns. ......................... Jonathan and David were not a gay couple. Your are perverting the Word of G-d. 

Dibuk Chaverim translates as "cleaving to friends." The word dibbuk comes from the Hebrew root dalet-bet-kuf meaning "to cling, be attached, glued." Chaverim translates as "friends" and comes from the Hebrew root chet-vet-reish meaning "to be joined" or "to unite." - See more at: http://www.reformjudaism.org/cleaving-friends-middah.......... ALL That Ruth 1 said is that Ruth clave ("dabaq") unto her. It NEVER said they were one flesh dabaq- to impinge, that is, cling or adhere; figuratively to catch by pursuit: - abide, fast, cleave (fast together), follow close (hard, after), be joined (together), keep (fast), overtake, pursue hard, stick, take.......

Some ask why is Yeshua (Jesus) identified as "the morning star"(Rev.22:16)  when "lucifer" (Is.14:12) has that identification.

HaSatan constantly attempts to (mis)use the symbology related to HaShem (And Yeshua). The Word "lucifer" wasnt in the texts of the Tanach (in Is.14:12). The word simply isnt there. Here in the Tanakh the script is Hebrew and "lucifer" is Latin. The word is heylel  (Root is considered to be "halal", which would be "to shine") and can mean "morning star"(son of the morning)/ (Strongs: "shining one, light bearer") and thats the role HaSatan tries to hijack from Messiah throughout his own ideology. "Anti" in the Greek is to say "instead of" so its logical that this one is seen in the same way as the Christ (The morning Star) is to those who don't walk with Christ (antichrist). The verse is part of a message presented to the wicked one who set himself up as something greater than he is and thus the reason the verse reads (Is.14:12)" How art thou fallen from heaven, O 'Lucifer', son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!" Showing that what he considers himself isnt adding up to what he has become. The actual word (at its root H#1984) used, (negative or positive) points to: boasting, foolish, to rage,to give light, mad, to give in marriage,... (Ps.2) Also we are told HaSatan (and his ministers) comes disguised as a messenger of light. Yes "disguised" (2 Cor.11) and all prophecy relating to HaSatan is done in moons (lunar)/ months (where as prophecy relative to the elect are done in days and years/ solar) and if u consider the moon its not a Source of light its only disguised as a light source! Fact it is reflects light of the Sun

Lucifer = "light-bearer" 

1) shining one, morning star, Lucifer 

a) of the king of Babylon and Satan (fig.) 

2) (TWOT) 'Helel' describing the king of Babylon 

(Babylon- office of confusion)

"Jewish" tradition/ Rashi on Is.14:12 / "This is the lamentation over the heavenly prince of Babylon, who will fall from heaven.".... If you take all this knowledge and read between the lines with islamic lit you will see they worship the reflected light, as allah https://youtu.be/rY74VYiIE0o

Will Hindsman (Greek) Rev.22:16 says who the True "morning (orthrinos) star (aster)" is. The Word "lucifer" wasnt in the texts of the Tanakh (in Is.14:12). The word simply isnt there.The Word in Is.14:12 is הֵילֵל "heylale". Here in the Tanakh the script is Hebrew and "lucifer" is Latin. The Hebrew Word here was rendered as heōsphoros in Greek (in the Septuagint) by early Jewish and Greek Scolars... Is.14 goes on to describe this one "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High." (Showing that what he considers himself isnt adding up to what he has become)... The NT also mentions a wicked one that likes to assume the position of Yeshua (Jesus). Anti in the Greek means "instead of" and in the "NT" we are told.... 2 Cor.11:14-15 "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed (DISGUISED) into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."...... The one mentioned in Is.14 as "lucifer" in Latin (a language upheld and Used by the rcc among others) is the rebellious one and the morning star mentioned in Rev. Is Messiah. Its also important to note all prophesy given of the wicked on is done in moons (months/lunar) while all prophesy of G-d and his people are done in days and years (which highlights light). The moon is disguised as a source of light when in fact it only reflects the light from the sun.

 R. Simeon further discoursed on the text: Behold, my servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high (Is. 52:13). ‘Happy is the portion of the righteous’, he said, ‘to whom the Holy One reveals the ways of the Torah that they may walk in them. This verse contains an esoteric meaning. When God created the world, He made the moon, and made her small, for she possesses no light of her own, but because she accepted her diminution she receives reflected light from the sun and from the other superior luminaries.
(Zohar 1:181a)

But after the Temple was destroyed there was a darkening of the lights, the moon ceased to receive light from the sun, the latter having withdrawn himself from her, so that not a day passes but is full of grievous distress and afflictions. The time, however, will come for the moon to resume her primordial light, and in allusion to this it is written: “Behold, my servant will prosper.” That is to say, there will be a stirring in the upper realms as of one who catches a sweet odour and stands alert. “He shall be exalted”, from the side of the most exalted luminaries; “and lifted up”, from the side of Abraham; “and shall be high”, from the side of Isaac; “very”, from the side of Jacob. At that time, then, the Holy One will cause a stirring on high with the object of enabling the moon to shine with her full splendour, as we read: “Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of the seven days” (Ibid. XXX, 26). There will thus be added to the moon an exalted spirit whereby all the dead that are in the dust will be awakened. This is the esoteric meaning of “my servant”, viz. the one that has in his hand the key of his Master.
(Zohar 1:181a-181b)

David, indeed, was king in this world and will be king in the time to come; hence “the stone the builders rejected is become the chief corner-stone”. For, when the sun turns away his face from the moon, and does not shine upon her, she has no light whatever and so does not shine, but is poverty-stricken and dark on all sides; but when the sun turns towards her and radiates his light upon her, then her face is illumined and she adorns herself for him as a woman for a man. She thus is then invested with the dominion of the world. So David adorned himself after this very manner. Now he would appear poor and dejected, but then again he would be revelling in riches. Hence David’s declaration, “I am small and despised, yet have I not forgotten thy precepts.” It behoves, indeed, every man to follow this example and to humble himself in every respect so as to become a vessel in which the Holy One, blessed be He, may find delight. This lesson has also been expounded in connection with the phrase, “with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit’ (Isa. LVII, 15).’
(Zohar 2:232b

"I pity the Fool"/ Some try to say that Matt.5:22 and Matt 23:17 contradict one another.

Matt.5:22 "But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire."... Here we are being told not to call a brother moros (G#3474) which can mean Hopeless of Salvation (which is the Opposite of sharing the good news /gospel).  moros- (the root of the English terms, "moron, moronic") – properly, dull (insipid), flat ("without an edge"); (figuratively) "mentally inert"; dull in understanding; nonsensical ("moronic"), lacking a grip on reality (acting as though "brainless")./ dull, stupid, foolish.  So no what grounds does Yeshua say " Ye fools and blind" in Matt 23:17? First off who is judge? YHVH is The Almighty and messiah's postion is at the right hand of G-D. right hand -powers and works/ in relation to creation/ The Word/ King of Kings and Lord of lords/ Adon- Lord as in relation to creation/

Jn.5:30 "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me." 

Yeshua (Jesus) judges by the will of YHVH (The Almighty G-D/ Father). The Elohim judges righteous judgement cause The Elohim is the will of YHVH. Yeshua can read minds, know hearts, he is Adon. He is Judge. He knows who is in good standing and who is Far away from understanding and salvation. 

Judge not least ye be judged. People not of authority shouldn't be assuming authority to judge and condemn others. Only those of the will of HaShem (the Elohim) have the right to execute judgement cause fact is they are executing the judgement of YHVH. (Matt.16:19/ Matt.18:18/ Deut.18:18-19). We are to be fishers of men with a message of hope/repentance/ good news thus encouraging to those who seek the truth. That is the opposite of calling a brother hopeless or moros. Let G-D be G-D. If your led of The Spirit you aren't out calling the brethern "moros".  

Just saw a atheist try to make a move by posting clips from 3 different verses using the English "fool" to attempt to create a contradiction. I won't be posting their texts cause the person is so vile but I will post my response and you can may see their claim in that.

------- You critics NEVER STUDY before posting. Shameful really. Fact is you gave three verses with the English translation "Fool" and NOT ONE OF THEM USE THE SAME WORD!!! .............. "Matthew 23:17" The word translated as "fool"= Moros
Luke 11:40 "fool"= afrone
Luke 24:25 "fool"= anoaytos!! .............. Now your first quote that you don't bother to document is Matt.5:22 and yes the word THERE is Moros but you didn't quote the whole verse. Its saying you who call a brother in The faith... "Moros" (fool)- (would be the Hebrew nabal) - wicked, reprobate, destitute of all spiritual or divine knowledge..... The Message here is that you should never call someone in the faith this and if you do you are demonstrating bad discernment and thus you are in fact the one in transgression. The Word also says they who reject a believer reject Christ and they who reject Christ rejects he who sent Christ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also APPLY 1 Jn.3:15!!!!!!!!! Then you will have your answer instead of posting your ignorance on Facebook!!!!!--------

& ---- No I actually just looked up all the verses and studied to show myself approved you should TRY it SOMETIME. Troll---- 

& ----- here is 1 Jn.3:15 since we all know YOU won't look it up!... "Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him."!-----

I have noticed some haters of Jews like to pervert Jn7:1 and claim its condemning all Jews. 

kjv: After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him

Daniel 5:13 Then was Daniel brought in before the king. And the king spake and said unto Daniel, Art thou that Daniel, which art of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Jewry?

Both of these places have one thing in common. Jews that were imposing their social status and personal judgements on others. Its not claiming The faith or judgments Delivered to Israel/Judah were wrong or condemned just that some who are of the people often had another agenda./ People need to know there is a difference between Judaizing and Judaism. Both can go hand in hand with limited knowledge and perversion but to condemn All Jews or the Faith delivered unto them cause of Judaizing is like condemning "religion" cause of Man Made religion.

Propaganda is used alot to Judaize people. Today it isnt so much for the purpose of following Torah as it is for political ideologies such as political zionisim. Note:

Esther 8:17

And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. Andmany of the people of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews fell upon them.

H#3054 yahad- ("became Jews")

Denominative from a form corresponding to

H3061; to Judaize, that is, become Jewish: - become Jews

Note these people didnt become Jews out of faith, respect and obideance to Torah. They became Jews for political reasons. Many are doing this today. There is an earthly concept of being Israel and a Spiritual one.

To spread agendas of the Jews using fear of the Jews.

(today few Jews are concerned with proselytizing)
