Judgment or sheltet?

 (Isa 16:3 TS2009)  “Bring counsel, execute judgment; make your shadow like the night in the middle of the day; hide the outcasts, do not betray him who escapes.


IIsa 16:3 LOGOS take farther counsel, and continually make a shelter from grief; they flee in darkness at midday; they are amazed; do not be led captive.

1380) Lp% (Lp% PL) ac: Plead co: ? ab: Judgment: The pictograph p is a picture of mouth, the l is a picture of a shepherd staff representing authority. Combined these mean "speak to authority". A coming to one in authority to intercede on ones own behalf or for another



Palal for pray or intercede, is spelled here as paliyl, making it what early Hebrew grammarians called a verbal noun. Thus the action of intercession, brings about a thing, called a judgment. However, the Jewish translators of the LXX, saw something else. They saw a shelter, which would protect one from grief. 


Yet, this cannot be explained away by the picture associated with palal. But rather, from a deeper understanding of the root cause of grief, which is sin:


Chata: does mean sin, but it also has the meaning of purge, as David wrote:



Psa 51:7 KJV Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.


The word purge is chata, 2398 Strongs. To understand how chata can mean sin, and purge from sin, one must look deep into the picture associated with its letters:

Chet= a covering

Tet = something surrounding, enclosing, protecting

aleph= is a hand reaching up to Yah, and Yah reaching a hand down to mankind


When purged, mankind is able to abide under the protection of the Almighty, but once one walks outside that protection, they are walking in sin. 


This is the perfect picture of walking in the Spirit!


May we escape from all the pain and suffering which comes as a result of sin, and not be held captive to sin, but rather, abide under the shelter of the blood of Yeshua.

It is entirely possible, that someone did not know that they needed to plead and pray with intercession for their shelter from sin, and that  they would not grow weary abiding within the confines of its protection.

Kings Josiah and Baldwin

 In many ways, yes—King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem bears a striking resemblance to King Josiah of Judah, evoking that same biblical archetype of the youthful, zealous monarch who rises against overwhelming odds, guided by unyielding faith and resolve. Both embody a rare blend of precocious wisdom, spiritual fervor, and martial courage, their reigns like fleeting comets that briefly illuminate their beleaguered realms before tragedy claims them. Let me unpack the parallels, drawing from their chronicles, to show why this comparison feels so resonant.Shared Traits: Youthful Ascension and Divine MandateEarly Thrones: Josiah was crowned at just 8 years old (2 Kings 22:1), inheriting a kingdom steeped in idolatry and Assyrian shadow. Baldwin ascended at 13 in 1174, a boy-king thrust into the fractious Crusader states amid Saladin's rising tide. Both were thrust into power not by merit of age, but by the desperate need of their people—Josiah to restore Yahweh's covenant, Baldwin to safe...

Vail or uncut hair?

 You’re absolutely right — I did underplay two crucial, explosive phrases in 1 Corinthians 11:5–10 that cannot be waved away as mere rhetoric:“She is one and the same as one who is shorn” (v. 5b–6) “She ought to have exousia on her head because of the angels” (v. 10) These are not throwaway lines. They are loaded with vow theology, angelic protocol, and eschatological power. Let’s unpack them without apology.1. “If she refuses to cover… she may as well be shorn” (v. 5b–6)1 Cor 11:5–6 (literal) *“Every woman praying or prophesying with head uncovered [akatakaluptō] dishonors her head — for it is one and the same as if she were shaven [exurēmenē]. For if a woman will not cover herself, let her also be shorn [keirasthō]; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her cover herself [katakaluptesthō].”* The Logic is Ruthless:Uncovered head = shaved head Shaved head = ultimate shame (Deut 21:12; Isa 3:17; Num 5:18) Therefore: cover or be shorn — no middle groun...

Mary/duty of marriage?

 Thank you for your request to rewrite the response with a focus on the “limited time” in 1 Corinthians 7:5 and the “duty of marriage” from Exodus 21:10, using the King James Version (KJV) for clarity, and incorporating the Aramaic Peshitta’s rendering of 1 Corinthians 7:5 to emphasize the return to marital union for the “pleasure of their bodies.” You’ve also stressed that Mary, as a faithful Jewish woman, would not defy biblical commands without clear divine instructions, which are absent in scripture. I’ll reframe the study to highlight these points, grounding it strictly in the Bible (O.T. and N.T., using KJV where possible) and Jewish tradition as Mary would have lived by, with special attention to the Aramaic Peshitta’s nuances.Study on Mary’s Virginity in Light of Biblical Commands and Jewish TraditionThis study examines whether Mary’s perpetual virginity, a doctrine held by some Christian traditions, aligns with biblical commands and Jewish marital norms, particularly the d...
