The Bible tells us that the “End (of the world) is declared from the “beginning” (Isaiah 46:10). Certainly, this means that the early Biblical record of human history bears End-time prophetic significance. But, it’s actually even more specific than that. The original Hebrew word translated as “beginning” in Isaiah 46:10 is תישאר (rê’shı̂yth). This is the root of Bereshith, which is the Hebrew name of the first Book of the Bible, “Genesis”. In other words, prophecies of the End of the World are found in the Book of Genesis.
The Torah is one of the five keys for unlocking End-time Prophecy… Prophecy is unlocked through the Statutes!
Things We've Studied/Proved so Far:
What happened in Eden?
· The Law of Yahweh was presented to humanity
· Genesis 1:12- “And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”
o At Creation, everything was good
o Plants and seed was created
· Spiritual Seed was also created…
o GOOD SEED: The Saved People (Abraham’s Line) are the Seed of Abraham - Genesis 17:9 - “And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep My Covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.”
§ Genesis 17:19- “And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish My Covenant with him for an Everlasting Covenant, and with his seed after him.”
§ The Saved people of Yahweh are the Seed, which are the Covenant-keepers (partakers of the Covenant)
§ Proverbs 11:21 “Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.”
o WICKED SEED - Genesis 3:15 - “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise His Heel.”
§ The Serpent – the devil – also has “seed”
§ Psalm 37:28 “For Yahweh loveth judgment, and forsaketh not His saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.”
· Dealing with the Seed from Eden is an End-time Event.
· In Matthew 13 Yahshua told of an End-time Event, in Eden language in the Parable of the Sower:
o A Sower (the Creator) goes forth to sow GOOD SEED
§ Matthew 13:38, the Field is the World
§ The Good Seed is sowed by the Yahshua
§ The Wicked Seed is sowed by the devil.
§ In the parable the good seed is the wheat
§ The wicked seed is the tares.
§ Both grow together until the harvest, which is at the End of the world.
§ When the question is asked, if the “tares” should be pulled out right away, the Sower says “no”!... His reason is that if the tares were pulled out too soon, wheat (GOOD SEED) would be lost… And since all Good Seed was turned to bad in Adam, there would be no wheat… It is because of the Plan of Redemption that Tares may become Wheat!
· Leviticus 19:19 “Ye shall keep My Statutes… Thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed…”
· Ezra 9:2 “For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the people of those lands...”
· To understand Seed, we need to know that the Good Seed (the Saved people of Yahweh) are Torah-keeping…
o Psalm 119:155 - “Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not Thy Statutes.”
· Seed is not defined by the profession a person makes… Seed is defined by Faith-filled works… “The devils believe (in God) and tremble” yet they are not saved, because they do not want to keep Torah…
· Seed is defined by whose character we manifest: Satan’s is the character of rebellion against Torah… Yahweh’s Character is found in His Torah.
· IN THE END, THE FATHER WHO CLAIMS YOU WILL BE THE ONE YOU LOOK LIKE IN CHARACTER.
Spiritual Wheat
• Psalms 81:17 “And He would feed him with the finest of the wheat; and I would satisfy you with honey from the rock.”
• Psalms 147:14 “He makes peace in your borders, and fills you with the finest of the wheat.”
• At Creation, Yahweh spoke the world into existence… The basic units of speech are letters… In particular the 22 original letters (proto-Canaanite) served as the “periodic table” of spiritual elements.
• In Hebrew (or proto-Canaanite) the value of the Hebrew word for “wheat” is 22 (encompassing all the letters of aleph bet)
• חטה is 22 – wheat then, in Hebrew understanding, contains the secret of Creation, embodying the 22 letters of aleph bet.
• Wheat symbolizes Eternal Life – and is symbolically represented as the Tree of Life
Genesis
1:31 “And God saw every thing that
He had made, and, behold, it was very
good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”
How did the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil come to be in Eden?
Option 1: The Creator made both the Tree of Life and the
Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil
·
James 1:17 “Every good gift and
every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights,
with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”
·
James 1:13 “When tempted, no one
should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil,
nor does he tempt anyone.”
·
Ezekiel 22:26 “Her priests have
violated My Law, and have profaned Mine holy things: they have put no
difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between
the unclean and the clean...”
·
Isaiah 8:20 “To the Law and to the Testimony: if
they speak not according to this Word, it is because there is no light in
them.”
Option 2: The Creator’s Life-giving Power was in the Ground,
causing everything planted to grow…
·
Genesis 2:9 “And out of
the ground made Yahweh God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight,
and good for food; the Tree of Life also in the midst of the
Garden, and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.”
Wait a minute! Can Yahweh’s Life-giving Power be put in the
Ground and then abused? Can the power of Yahweh be abused/misused? Yes! Had
Adam and Eve eaten from the Tree of Life in their fallen state, sin would have
endured forever because they would have lived forever.
·
Genesis 3:22-24 “…and now, lest
he put forth his hand, and take also of the Tree of Life, and eat, and live
forever: Therefore Yahweh God sent him forth from the garden of
Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken. So he drove out the man; and
he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword
which turned every way, to keep the way of the Tree of Life.”
What does the name of the Tree mean? The Tree of the
Knowledge of Good and Evil?
In Hebrew, “to know” is a reference to marital intimacy:
• Gen
2:9 And out ofH4480 the groundH127 made the
LORDH3068 GodH430 to growH6779 everyH3605
treeH6086 that is pleasantH2530 to the sight,H4758
and goodH2896 for food;H3978 the treeH6086 of
lifeH2416 also in the midstH8432 of the garden,H1588
and the treeH6086 of knowledgeH1847 of goodH2896
and evil.H7451
• Genesis
4:1 “And AdamH121 knewH3045 (H853)
EveH2332 his wife;H802 and she conceived,H2029
and bareH3205 (H853) Cain,H7014 and said,H559
I have gottenH7069 a manH376 fromH854 the
LORD.H3068
2 Corinthians 5:21 “For He hath made Him to
be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the
righteousness of God in Him.”
·
“to know” is to be married with… So, when Adam
and Eve fell, they entered into an adulterous relationship with the devil – an
unholy marriage/union with the snake.
·
Yahshua came as the “Second Adam” – having no
marriage/unholy union with the devil.
Genesis 3:22 “And
the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as
one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put
forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever:”
· the Man – is the individual and all of
mankind (H120)
· is become - to exist,
that is, be or become, come to pass (H1961)
· as one - properly
united (a marriage word), that is, one; or (as an ordinal) first
(H259)
· of - a part
of; hence (prepositionally), from or out of (H4480)
· “us” is not present in the Hebrew text
“Human kind
have become united (married) from out (without / outside) of Yahweh.” This is
why sin is called spiritual adultery.
