BiG banG — > universe — > then set in motion

for “8 days”/millennia. Lev.23 is the advents.

    “In the beginning God..” and the only straight out from God one, the Son, “forever first”/proto. Father & Son being so close both administer God’s Spirit/Presence.

   The being worked out blueprint - Father’s Presence will saturate, thus “seal” all creation, all mankind - Jesus is the prototype - all angelkind, animalkind, singing bird kind, &tc. “The cow will graze with the bear, their young will pasture and lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox” Isaiah 11:7. [Summed up in 1Timothy 4:10 and Luke 1:37.] Mt.13:30 is Rev.16:14-15-16 & Mt.25:1-13; Rev.20 tells crests only; seal description veils the seals & vision; vision is told 3 times; 13:13 is the seal6 1st event showing an office; 1Cor.15:22-28 w/ Mt.13:33, key word 3! (1Pet.3:19 -> 2Pet.2:5); it’s Dan.12:11-12 w/ Lk.19:41,44 and 1Cor.3:16! W/ last “10 days” escalation, Rev.2:10, then Is.24:20/Rev.10:4.

All, in translation, was changed to all things.

Jesus said he “will draw all” Jn.12:32.

ACTS 5 1-16

Luke wrote “of the things fulfilled among us” paraphrased  [ ] ref  { } thots 

Book of the Acts of the First Believers

{Lest we cringe, or panic, over this next, we should consider that one’s being gone (hades-not seen, state of being gone, until resurrection) from this present life and age, is not the same from God’s view as ours. It’s more like being transplanted into a not yet tilled garden, awaiting resurrection into “aionion kolasis” / eonian korrection / age of correction. See Fall holy days of Leviticus 23, the Spring ones having been fulfilled perfectly by Jesus’ so brief first advent.}

     1 - But a certain man, Ananias and his wife Sapphira, sold a property, 2 and decided to keep back some of the price, and tell the apostles a false price. 3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why did the adversary fill your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit? 4 It was your property, you could do with it as you wished, and after you sold it, the price was yours to do with as you might want. So why did you purpose in your heart to lie, not to us, but to God?” 5 After hearing this, suddenly Ananias fell down dead, and great fear came upon all who heard about it. 6 Some of the younger men came and wrapped him in burial cloths and carried him out.

     7 About three hours later, his wife came in, not knowing what had happened, 8 and Peter asked her if such and such was the price for their piece of land, and she answered it was. 9 Then Peter said, “I can’t believe your husband and you thought to tempt the Spirit of the LORD God.” {Psuedo.. playacting? A sort of sorcery! Like deliberately misleading with words is surely a sort of sorcery.. Used to inspire riots and wars.}

     Peter continued, “Look. those who buried your husband have just returned ..and will carry you out as well.” 10 And sure enough she fell down right then and the men did as they had for Ananias, and buried her by him.

     11 The Jerusalem believers became very sober minded after that! And fear came upon all who heard of it (vs.13). 12 Meanwhile, many healings and wonders were happening through the apostles. And the believers were of one mind, united in purpose, and were meeting in the temple’s porch of Solomon daily. 13 And no one dared join them except the truly believing, though they were respected and regarded as friendly by the people.

     14 Many more, both men and women, were becoming believers. 15 And the people would bring the ailing upon mats and couches, hoping for Peter to come along. For it was said even his shadow would bring healing. 16 People were also coming in from regions and cities outside of Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those harassed by unclean spirits, and all were healed. (I think it will be like this, only greater, after the “second resurrection” during GWT judgment ‘day’ (aion, Jn.7:37; in Mt.25:46 called - “kolasin aionion” / korrection eonian] / an age oF correction, noT ‘eternal/neverending punishment’ which of course defies aLL logic-root word logos - This “his long second advent” idea was here in last year’s lesson, now year before last, bread from heaven, and has been steadily built and expounded upon since it first came to mind - one way of telling if an idea we think is scriptural is actually accurate or not?)

Hebrews 9:21-24  Luke 5:1-11 and ACTS 5:1-16 separately

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 9:21-24

21 - And in the same way he sprinkled with blood both the tent and all the vessels used in worship. {All purified, a solemn oath.} 22 Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there’s no forgiveness [aphesis - forgiveness, release, remission]. {And guilty conscience appeased.}

     23 THUS - it was necessary for the copies (examples, likeness) of the heavenly things to be purified by these rites, but the heavenly things (real way) with a better sacrifice than these. 24 For Christ has entered, not into the most holy place made with hands - which are copies of the true most holy place - but into heaven itself, now to appear in the Presence of God on our behalf.

            🌙 P.M. Luke 5:1-11

1 - On one occasion, Jesus was standing by the lake of Gennesaret (on the west shore of Galilee lake, in the land of Gennesaret). The large crowd around him was eager to hear the message of God, and was pressing in upon him. 2 He saw two boats by the lake, where the crew had left them to go and wash their nets. 3 So he got into one of the boats, and he asked Simon Peter to put it out a little from the land, for it was Simon’s boat. And then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.

     4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” 5 And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all through the night and our nets are empty, for we caught nothing at all, however at your word, I’ll let down the nets.”

     6 And when they had done so, they caught so many fish, their nets were breaking. 7 They signaled to their partners (James and John) in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both boats, until they began to sink. 8 But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!” 9 For he and all who were with him in the boat were astonished at the catch of fish, 10 and so were those of the other boat belonging to James and John, the sons of Zebedee.

     Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t fear, from now on you will be catching men.” 11 And when they had brought their boats to land, they left all and followed him.

Hebrews 9:15-20  Mark 1:35-39

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 9:15-20

15 - Jesus, therefore, is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the enduring inheritance that is promised, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant. {Author is Hebrew through and through..? Apollo? Or studied Pharisee Paul?} 16 For where a will {and testament} is involved, there has to be the death of the one who made the will. 17 For a will takes effect only at death. It’s not in force as long as the one who made it is still alive. 18 Therefore not even the first covenant was inaugurated without blood. {The most solemn nonreversible pledge, promise, guarantee.. Old world notarizing. Un-breakable. A blood oath.}  19 For when every commandment of the law had been declared by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, 20 saying, “This is the blood of the agreement that God has commanded concerning you.”

            🌙 P.M. Mark 1:35-39

35 -  And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he went out to a lonely place to pray. [“Be still, and know I am God” Ps.46:10. He is. And thAt is fantastic news indeed!! Hello!? ..We are currently entropic, not immortal. So yes, good news indeed.]

     36 Simon (Peter) and those who were with him searched for him, 37 and when they found him, they told him, “Everyone is looking for you.” 38 But he said, “Let’s go on to the next towns, so I may preach there also, for this is why I came.”

     39 And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in the synagogues and casting out demons.

     {Demons are rogue angels [messengers] lying spirits. How to determine true from not, or not quite true? Jesus prayed “Father sanctify them in the Truth, thy logos is Truth” Jn.17:17, boTh the personified logos and the written logos. Logos - reasoning (God’s reasoning.) With language tools! Because translators were under sway of an ancient falsehood.. And some disbelief. Logos is the root word of Logic! Just a very few bad word translations have robbed the message of a good part of its GLORY.

     And we are robbed if we let our heart be hardened against the written logos, or even to the Old Testament. God’s voice has to speak to the worst, most barbaric, and cruelly heartless, not just to the ‘saints’ (if there were any saints, lol, as we think of the word). And pre flood was hands off. And 1st proof - that imperfect is an abyss of potential.. and entropy, “which doesn’t quit”. So “God is savior of all” 1Tim.4:10 (Jn.12:32). Death is a waiting for resurrection, either “into life” (into long second advent) or into “aionion kolasis” / eonian korrection / age of correction, Jn.5:28,29 and Mt.25:46.}

Hebrews 9:11-14  Mark 1:21-34

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 9:11-14

11 - When Christ appeared as high priest of the good things that have now come, and went through the greater and more perfect tent, not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, 12 he entered once for all into the most holy place, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption. {What needed to be appeased? An angry god? Or the human conscience ..and psyche?} 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies/cleanses the defiled {imperfection/entropy being (like) a disease, the dis-ease as part of the cure, and immunity.. a slow gehenna fever} 14 how much more, will the blood of Christ - who through the eternal Spirit offered himself (a lamb) without blemish to God - how much more shall it purify our conscience from dead works/doings {and thinking, free} to serve the living God. {Who is Life. Serve God, serve Life and everything Good.}

            🌙 P.M. Mark 1:21-34

21 - Jesus, with his disciples, were in Capernaum, and on the Sabbath he went into the synagogue and was teaching. 22 The people were astonished, for he taught them as one {very learned} who had authority, and not like the scribes did. {Reading versus hearing? And knowing.}

     23 There was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out, 24 “What have you to do with us!? Jesus of Nazareth! Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are! The Holy One of God!” 25 And Jesus said, “Be silent, and come out of him.” 26 And the unclean spirit, convulsing the man and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him.

     27 And they were all amazed, and questioned among their selves, saying, “What is this!? A new teaching with authority!? He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” 28 And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.

     29 Then he left the synagogue and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30 Immediately they told him Simon's mother-in-law was laying ill with a fever, 31 so he went and took her by the hand, and the fever left her. She got up, and began making a meal for them.

     32 That same evening at sundown they brought to him all who were sick or oppressed by demons. 33 So many, the whole city was gathered together at the door! 34 And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons and would not let them speak, because they knew who he was.

Hebrews 9:6-10  Luke 4:31-44

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 9:6-10

6 - For the (tabernacle, temple) preparations and rituals, the priests go regularly into the first {entry} section, 7 but into the second interior room, only the high priest goes. And he but once a year. And not without taking blood {strong enough to convince and appease every conscience} which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people. [Annually on Day of Atonement, DOA.] {A “shadow and type” of the real DOA, for the initiaLLy doa.}

     8 By this the Holy Spirit{/Presence of God} indicates that the way into the most holy place {his presence} is not yet opened as long as the first section is still standing, 9 which is symbolic for the present age.  {This present reality. This entropy! A slow gehenna. We could not endure His Full Presence. Purity consumes impurity. We are still entropic/imperfect - Heb.11:40, 1Cor.15:54.}

     According to the old arrangement, gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect [teleiōsai] {satisfy} the conscience of the worshiper {once and for all} 10 but it deals only with food and drink and various washings [baptismos] and regulations imposed until the time of restoring [diorthosis - reformation, correction, improvement] {of humanity, which began with Jesus’ first advent, and will be fully completed during his long second advent}.

            🌙 P.M. Luke 4:31-44

31 - Jesus went back to Capernaum of Galilee, and was teaching on the Sabbath. 32 The people were astonished at his teaching, for his words were skillful and spoken with authority. 33 There was a man in the synagogue who had {was contaminated with} the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice, 34 “Ha! What have you to do with us?! You Jesus of Nazareth! Have you come to destroy us?! I know who you are! The Holy One of God!”

     35 Jesus said, “Be silent and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown the man down in their midst of them, he came out, and the man suffered no injury.

     36 Amazed, the people were saying, “What is this?! For with authority and power he even commands the unclean spirits, and they obey!” 37 And so reports and word of him went out to all places in the region.

     38 After that, he left the synagogue and went to Simon's house. Simon Peter’s mother-in-law was ill with a high fever, so they appealed to him on her behalf. 39 And he went to her and rebuked the fever, and it left her, and immediately she rose, and she prepared a meal for them.

    40 Later on, when the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick with various diseases, brought them to him. And he healed them by touching and laying his hands on every one of them. 41 And demons also came out of many, crying, “You are the Son of God!” But he rebuked them and wouldn’t allow them to speak, because they knew he was the Christ, the Messiah.

    42 On the next day, he went out to a lonely place. But the people looked for him and found him, and were urging him to stay with them, 43 but he said, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well. For this is why I was sent.” 44 And so in those days, he was preaching in the synagogues of Judea.

If you happened to read yesterday’s gospel reading and study, somehow I got it in a wrong order. It was way out of place. Not shocking, I’m 71 afterall, and I ‘knew’ it, but it was a busy day. ..Don’t you just love reading about Jesus’ days? You should read yesterday’s, I fixed it.

Hebrews 8:11-9:5  Luke 4:16-30

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 8:11-9:5

{When all is done and completed under the covenant works of God} 11 - “They shall not teach each one their neighbor and each one their brother or sister, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least to the greatest. 12 For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins [hamartia - missing the mark {imperfection which is entropy}] no more.”

     13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete, old and fading, is ready to vanish away.

     9:1 - Now even the first covenant (of law and its tent was a “shadow” and replica of the spiritual, it) had regulations for worship and an earthly place of holiness. 2 For a tent was prepared, the first section, called the Holy Place, in which were the lamp-stand/light, the table, and the bread of the Presence on the table.

     3 And behind the second curtain was a second section, which is called the Most Holy Place, 4 and in it is the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden urn holding the manna, Aaron's staff that budded, and the tablets of the (first, hamartia revealing) covenant. (If you walked in with the lamp-stand lit, this room would be very reflective! And a postscript ‘26, heard a line “once a person sees gold.. gold fever”..} 

     5 Above the ark were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. But of these things we cannot now speak in detail. {The cherubim, a likeness of the cherubim/seraphim, around the throne? And in this case “covering” the ark. Of which Satan was “covering angel of Eden”  ..And other covering angels - of animals - joined the revolt? (So became predator.)

      Yet all of course as God foresaw. And he waited patiently, for the first bound to occur rebel thought, to not only occur, but to mature into outright sedition before creating the universe, mankind and Eden - so all take this unavoidable journey all together at once}.

            🌙 P.M. Luke 4:16-30

Jesus went back to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath he went to the synagogue. When he stood up to read from the Scriptures, 17 he was given the book of Isaiah the prophet. He opened it and read, 18 “The LORD’s Spirit {Presence} is upon me. He has chosen me to tell the good news to the poor. He has sent me to announce freedom for the prisoners, to give sight to the blind, to free everyone who suffers, 19 and to say, ‘This is the year the Lord has chosen.’ ”

     20 Jesus closed the book, then handed it back to the man in charge and sat down. Everyone in the synagogue was looking at Jesus, 21 and he said to them, “Today, this has come true.”

     22 All the people started talking about Jesus and were amazed at the wonderful things he said. But they also said, “Isn't he Joseph's son?”

     23 Jesus said to them, “You will certainly want to tell me this saying - Doctor, first make yourself well. And you’ll tell me to do the things here in my hometown that you heard I did in Capernaum. 24  But you can be sure that no prophets are listened to by those of their own hometown.

     25 Once during the time of Elijah there was no rain for three and a half years, and people everywhere were starving. And were many widows, 26 but Elijah was sent only to one in the town of Zarephath near the city of Sidon.

     27 And during the time of the prophet Elisha, many in Israel had leprosy. But no one was healed, except Naaman who lived in Syria.”

     28 When the people in the synagogue heard Jesus say this, they became very angry 29 and got up as one, and were leading him out of town. They were dragging him along to the edge of the cliff on which the town was built, in order to throw him over. 30 But Jesus slipped away through the midst of them and went on his way.

N. TESTAMENT & PROPHECY ADVANCED CU ANNUAL STUDY, VERSES PARAPHRASED [REFERENCES] {THOTS}

Hebrews 8:1-10  John 2:1-12

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 8:1-10

1 - What we are saying is this, we have a high priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the majestic one on high. 2 And he is a minister in the holy place. In the true tent!  (Of worship, union.) One the LORD prepared and built, and not man. 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices. And so it’s necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. 4 Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law. 5 They serve a copy and a shadow, a replica of the real thing. For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, “See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown to you on the mountain.” {Creation, space, time, prophecy, is repeating pattern. Prophecy repeats until fullness and full scope, including the two advents. Note: the fibonacci spiral, dna, the universe, greek kosmos..}

     6 Now the new ministry (of Jesus) and the new agreement {between us and God - the faith of Jesus} is more excellent than the old, since it’s enacted on better promises. 7 For if the first covenant (agreement, contract, vows taken) had hit the mark, being able and sufficient to make one perfect, it would not have been necessary for a second. {God iS life and “is perfect” so imperfect is this entropy.. “the flower fades”.. All fades ..away. The Good News is resurrection. There will be two resurrections, how do we know? Because the one at Jesus’ return is called a “first resurrection”, and Revelation 20 briefly describes the second. ..The chapter’s told like describing just the crests of waves. Once we know that, we can see quite a lot in that chapter! After the 7th millennium - the “kosmos” having big banged (via God’s speaking/word into what it is, and then it was put into its motion - there has to be an “8th” millennium (a collective, spiritual “8th day” do you see the pattern? 1st outline, the week plus 1). Rev.20 says, during that 8th millennium, first Satan (&Co.) is let loose. And he goes out to the four ‘corners’ of Earth and gathers the people to another armageddon. Who? Who does he gather? And how long does it take? It seems to me there had to have been natural survivors of armageddon/war and apocalypse/crash. And they had children and so forth on through the 7th millennium, which was a Sabbath rest from the adversary/accelerant.

     This brings us to a second outline. One within the other.. like the wheel within wheels on God’s ?traveling throne? (Original word means seat.) ..Described in Ezekiel.. and Jeremiah? I have to get back to the prophets soon..

     This second outline is the Spring and Fall holy days of Leviticus 23, as the Lord’s two advents. (Of course! Right?) If you examine it, you’ll see how long the satanic gathering to another armageddon takes.

     It’s at that point - the 2nd armageddon - that there is the second of three mentions of a lake of fire. Each one being at a fiery event. This one is the fiery final defeat of the adversary. First mention is at the first armageddon (Is.24:20/Rev.10:4) and the last mention is at the fiery “palin(again)genesis” when God says “Behold! I make all new” Rev.21:5. Which brings us to the second resurrection. In this verse (Rev.21:5) “all” has been changed into “all things”. By just a very few errors of translation, the message has been.. corrupted. Although! Throwing out the baby/bible with the bath water.. and oh man, what gets missed! Within and without! Another pattern.}

     {The first covenant, called the Laws of Moses - is society preservative. Preparation for Messiah. And still Truth today.. yet the Lord said (for example) it’s not only good enough, to not murder {lol} but don’t despise our fellow person and neighbor. ..That’s part of the satanic gathering(s) to armageddon!}

     8 For he finds fault with them when he says, “Look, the days are coming” declares the LORD, “when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, 9 not like the one I made with their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand, and brought them out of the land of Egypt. (And 400 years of slavery.) For they didn’t honor my covenant, and so I showed to them no concern” says the LORD. {Shield of his Spirit/Presence worn thin.. All humanity will be “grafted into Israel” - you see why Israel is despised? Not that they’re perfect.. No nation is.}

     10 For this is the covenant/agreement/vow/union I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD, I will plant {to remain} my laws into their minds, and write them upon their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.” {Ultimately, all humanity as Israel. Believers are “grafted into” ..like one would graft beautiful branches into a big old olive tree.}

            🌙 P.M. John 2:1-12

1 - Three days later (after Jesus’ baptism) there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Jesus also was invited to the wedding along with his (few, four?) disciples. 3 When they ran out of wine, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They’ve run out of wine.” 4 And he said, “Woman  {Mom? lol} what does that have to do with me? My hour hasn’t come yet (for doing miracles, etc)..” 5 His mother said to the workers, “Do whatever he tells you.”

     6 There were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rite of purification, each one able to hold twenty or thirty gallons. 7 So Jesus said, “Fill the jars with water.”

     And they filled them up to the brim.  {To the brim! We are vessels for the “new wine”!} 8 Then he said, “Draw some out and take it to the master of the wedding feast.”

     And so they did. 9 And when the master of the wedding party tasted the water turned to wine, and didn’t know where it came from, though the ones who had drawn the water knew, the master of the feast called the bridegroom, 10 and he said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first! And when people have drank freely, then they serve the inferior wine! But you’ve kept the best wine until last!” {A bit of metaphor and prophecy here too.}

     11 This, at Cana in Galilee, was the first of the signs Jesus did, revealing his glory. And his disciples believed in him.

07-04 - From Heb-7 Mk-1

N. TESTAMENT & PROPHECY ADVANCED CU ANNUAL STUDY, VERSES PARAPHRASED [REFERENCES] {THOTS}

Hebrews 7:25-28  Mark 1:14-20

            ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 7:25-28

25 - And so, it is true {and a sure foundation/expectation} that he [high priest, Jesus] is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he is always living to intercede for us. [“Intercede” - entygxánō - from en “in” - which intensifies tygxánō - to light upon, tygxánō means to strike and hit the bulls-eye, be spot on, it was used in classical Greek as the opposite of harmartia - to miss the mark, sin - by Lucian, Xenophon, Homer, etc. - biblehub dot com.]

     {His purpose now, is bringing us to fully hitting the mark. Why is perfection necessary?  - We “put on perfection” (1Cor.15, Heb.11:40, Mt.5:48, 1Jn.2:5) “at his coming” (1Cor. 15:23) thus immortality.. Because God iS Life, and “is Perfect”. An iron measure. This also means the ‘end’ result of this unavoidable contrast, is the best one possible. Greek word “tel” root of telescope, the “end-aim”. Note: prophecy is fulfilled as small scope and later full scope. Including the advents.}

     26 For it’s indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest. One who is pure and sacred, holy, innocent, unstained or contaminated, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. 27 He has no need, like the other (only human) high priests, to offer sacrifices every day, first for his own sins. And then for those of the people, since Jesus did this once, and for all, when he offered up himself. {Being the spotless lamb, not imperfect/entropic, which the Old Testament sacrifices portrayed the message - the priesthoods to appease, imo, the human psyche and conscience. Not God’s anger.. for HE “has subjected all to disobedience” to(?) get it over with, much quicker as a one and done?}

     28 For the law appoints men in their weakness to serve as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a perfect(ed) Son.

     [Perfect(ed) - teleioó (tel-eioo) made complete, perfected, accomplished - to bring to an end, conclude.] {Everything (now) is prone to corruption. Except the Son, THE straight out from God - one - perfect, able to bring us/humanity to perfection, which (for believers) is consummated at his return.. and for the rest at the Rev.21:1-5 event, at close of GWT Judgment and Closure ‘Day’. Rev.21:5 is one of many verses where “all” has been translated into “all things”. I think due to disbelief and ancient ideas. Some think Apollos wrote Hebrews.}

            🌙 P.M. Mark 1:14-20

14 - John (the baptist/baptizer) was arrested, and meanwhile Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, 15 saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent [metanoeó - meta and noieo - to think differently afterwards] and believe the gospel.” [Euaggelion - good news, gospel, good message.]

     16 And passing alongside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon (Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 17 And Jesus said to them, “Follow me. I’ll make you fishers of men.” {They had seen him announced,  at the Jordan River, or at least fellow fishermen John and James did, one of the other gospel accounts says.}

     18 They left their nets, immediately, and went with him. 19 And going on a little further, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending their nets. 20 And he called to them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired workers and followed him.

07-03 - From Heb-7 Lk-3,4

N. TESTAMENT & PROPHECY ADVANCED CU ANNUAL STUDY, VERSES PARAPHRASED [REFERENCES] {THOTS}

Hebrews 7:18-24  Luke 3:23-4:15

             ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 7:18-24

18 - For on the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and inability. 19 For the-law-makes-nothing-perfect. {Its purpose is to define imperfect? And to produce a place for Messiah to begin.}

     But a better hope [elpis - *expectation*] is revealed - *through which we draw near to God*. 20 And it was not without an oath! Others became priests without an oath. 21 but he became a priest with an oath, when God said to him: “The LORD has sworn, and will not change his mind: ‘You are a priest forever [eis hé aión - for the age].” {Oath - ISAIAH 45:23 - “I have sworn by myself” (because there is nothing higher to swear by). “The word [dabar - word, matter, thing, speech, command, promise] is gone out of my mouth in righteousness. It shall not turn back.” (Remember, he spoke creation into as is …(then set it in motion.) “Unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear [shaba - swear, take an oath, vow; related to sheba or shibah - seven, seventh, seven times — completion, solemn and binding oath.]

     [From biblehub dot com - “God had completed His work that He had done, and He rested on the seventh day” Gen.2:2. Seven is the pattern of time and creation. Everything that follows, Sabbath, sabbatical years, Jubilee, echoes this inaugural pattern of work crowned by rest and blessing.”]

     22 What this means is Jesus is the guarantor [egguos - surety, pledge, guarantee] of a better covenant. 23 The former priests were many, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, 24 but because of the abiding of him for the age permanent he holds the priesthood. (The verse word for word.)

            🌙 P.M. Luke 3:23-4:15

23 - Jesus, when he began his ministry, was about thirty years old, being the son, as was supposed, of Joseph, the son of Heli..  24 - 36 …37 the son of Methuselah, the son of Enoch, the son of Jared, the son of Mahalaleel, the son of Cainan, 38 the son of Enos, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God. {Notice, son of God as first/proto.}

     Lk.4:1 - And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit {Presence of God} returned from the Jordan River and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness 2 for forty days.

     And the devil came to tempt him. Jesus ate nothing during those days, and when they were ending, he was hungry 3 and the devil said to him, “If you’re the Son of God, command this stone to become bread!” 4 But Jesus answered, “It’s written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone.’”

     5 And the devil took him up and in a moment of time, showed him all the kingdoms of the world, 6 and said to him, “I will give to you all this authority, and their glory, for it’s been delivered to me, and I give it to whoever I will.” {Hijacked! Confiscated! ..Actually engineered for this ‘quick’ one&done, all important, unavoidable contrast. Devil as accelerator.} 7 “And if you will worship me, it will all be yours!”

     8 And Jesus answered, “It’s written, ‘You shall worship the LORD your God, and him, only, shall you serve.’”

     9 And he took him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said, “If you’re the Son of God, throw yourself down! 10 For it’s written, ‘He will command his angels concerning you, to guard you,’ 11 and ‘on their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.’”

     12 And Jesus answered, “It’s also written, ‘You shall not put the LORD your God to the test.’” 13 And when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from him until a later opportune time. {Truth - is the shield and sword, “thy word is truth” Jn.17:17.}

     14 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and a report about him went out through all the surrounding country. 15 And he taught in their synagogues, being approved of by all.
