And Rev.20-22: (The Holy City)

      Until the student grasps this idea of a specific 'eth' Ha' adham' 'formed' by Jehovah, separate from the races created at Gen.1:26-27, for the purpose of providing a bloodline seed of the 'Woman', from whom Christ Jesus would be born from, then all the Commandments by our Father to Israel on not taking wives of the Canaanites and 'nations' (i.e., non-bloodline Israelite), and staying apart from the nations, will not fully be understood. For this reason also,

 

it is important to realize the events of God's intervention when that bloodline of 'eth' Ha' adham' became endangered, which if destroyed, would prevent the birth of His Saviour in the flesh (

this is why God did intervene in the lives of His chosen lineage; Christ's birth would never be prevented by Satan, but Satan did try, many times, even up to the time when Christ was an infant, using Herod to command the deaths of many infants in the hopes of including the baby Jesus). We are also going to learn in Gen.6 with the 'sons of God' taking wives from the 'daughters of men' creating the hybrid 'giant' race, that the word 'men' there in the Hebrew manuscripts is again, yep... that's right, 'eth' Ha' adham'!

Gen 2:9   And out of the ground made the LORD 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.       

Proverbs 3: Read all:

is This 'Tree of Life' is Jesus Christ.  'Wisdom', the subject of God's Word through Solomon's writing in really about this 'Tree of Life' who was with God in the beginning, and who was God.

 

John 1: Read All.

 

 Rev.2:7, Jesus stated that He would give to those who 'overcome', that is, those who pass trials by Satan; to them He would give The Tree of Life.

 

 Rev.22, this Tree of Life will have twelve manner of fruit (symbolizing the twelve tribes of Israel), yielded each month, and the leaves are for the healing of the nations ('ethnos', meaning Gentiles, or ethnic peoples). This other tree, the 'tree of knowledge of good and evil', is Satan himself.

      I'm not going to do it for you, but if you're having trouble understanding how a 'tree' in God's Word has other meanings, here's a study assignment if you're interested. Research the following verses and Chapters on other meanings of 'trees': Gen.3:6 along with 1 John 2:16; Judges 9:8-15; Job 19:10; Job 24:20; Ps.1; Ps. 37:35; Ps.52:8; Isaiah 6:9-13; Isaiah 66:17; Jer.11:13-19; Jer.17:7-8; Ezekiel 15; Ezekiel 31; Daniel 4; Matt.7:17; Matt.24:32; Luke 13; Romans 11; Rev.2:7; Rev.6:13; Rev.9:4; Rev.22:2.

      I ask the new student to not skip these first Chapters in Genesis, for this is the foundation for understanding much of God's Word. If you don't get these Truths here, then Revelation will remain a mystery, and even Christ's condemnation of the 'scribes and Pharisees' won't be properly understood.

 

Peace be unto you in Christ Jesus,
Dave Ramey.
