 • Romans 16:1-12  Matthew 18:1-11

            ☀️ Romans 16:1-12

1 - I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant [diakonos - servant, minister, deacon] of the church at Cenchreae. 2 Please welcome her in the Lord in a way worthy of the saints, and help her in whatever way she needs, for she has been a patron of many and of myself as well. {She is delivering the letter?}

     3 Be sure to greet Priscilla and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus. {Interesting, Paul now mentions Priscilla first.} 4 They have risked their very necks for my life, to whom not only am I thankful, but all the churches of the Gentiles are thankful as well.

     5 Greet also the church that meets in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in Asia. 6 Greet Mary, who has worked hard for you. 7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners. [2Cor.11:23 “I have frequently been in prison”..] They are well known to the apostles, and they were in Christ before me. 8 Greet Ampliatus, greatly loved in the Lord. 9 Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys. 10 Greet Apelles, who is approved in Christ. Greet those who are of the family of Aristobulus. 11 Greet my kinsman Herodion. Greet those in the Lord of the family of Narcissus. 12 Greet Tryphaena and Tryphosa, those workers in the Lord. Greet the beloved Persis, who has worked faithfully in the Lord.

            🌙 Matthew 18:1-11

1 - The disciples came to Jesus, asking, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 2 And calling to him a child, Jesus set him in their midst, 3 and said, “Truly, I tell you, unless you turn [stréphō – properly, to turn, transition, figuratively to convert by changing (switching) direction, i.e. go the other way, do an about-face] and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

     4 Therefor, whoever humbles theirself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

     5 And whoever receives one in my name receives me. 6 But whoever causes one to fall, it would be better for them to have a great millstone fastened around their neck and thrown into the depths of the sea.

     7 Woe to the world for temptations to sin! {To dissolution.} For it’s bound to be that temptations come, but woe to the one, by whom, the temptation comes! 8 So if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It’s better for you to go through [eiserchomai - arise, come into, enter into, go through] life crippled or lame, than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the aiónios [age-long, of a duration or pertaining to an age] fire.” {This slow gehenna fade, entropy.. life as we presently know it.. pluck a leaf from the tree and watch the slow burn. Same imperfection/entropy can, and does flare up into fiery judgments like 70 CE ..& Armageddon, Is.24:20/Rev.10:4 ..because imperfect is an abyss of potential with all its fiery trials, atrocities, and torments. And inner, outside of the Light darkness, gnashing of teeth..}

     9 “And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away! It’s better for you to go through life with one eye, than with two eyes to be thrown [balló - thrown, cast, put, placed] into the fiery gehenna” {fiery trials, wrath, cause and effect, rot in jail.}

     10 “And see that you do not abuse [kataphroneó - despise, scorn, disregard, esteem lightly] one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels are always looking upon the face of my Father.” {Like how we are seated in heavenly places.. and in Rev. Mt. Zion, whereas Mt. of Olives (Zech.14:4) is the literal.}

 • Romans 15:22-33  Matthew 17:14-27

            ☀️ Romans 15:22-33

22 - This is the reason why I (Paul) have so often been hindered from coming to see you. [Because of finishing the work “from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum” (a region of the Roman Empire) and to Greece.] 23 But now, since I no longer have opportunity for work in these regions, and since I’ve longed - for many years - to come to you, 24 I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain, and to be helped on my journey there by you, after I’ve enjoyed your company for a while! {He has not met the Roman believers.}

     25 At present, however, I’m going to Jerusalem to bring some aid there for the saints/believers/followers. (There had been a severe drought.) 26 For Macedonia and Achaia volunteered to make a contribution for the poor among the brothers and sisters at Jerusalem. 27 They were happy to do it, and why not? It seems right, for if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, why not be of service to them in material blessings in a time of need?

     28 When I’ve delivered to them what’s been collected, I’ll leave for Spain by way of Rome. 29 I know when I come to you I’ll come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ. 30 I ask you, brothers and sisters, by our Lord and Messiah Jesus, and by the love of the Spirit to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf, 31 that this service will be seen as good to them at Jerusalem {in the same spirit as given} and that I may be kept safe from the unbelieving leaders in Judea. 32 So that by God's will I may joyfully come to you at last and be refreshed in your company as we together, seek his rest. 33 May the God of peace be with you all!

            🌙 Matthew 17:14-27

14 - As Jesus and his disciples were coming to a crowd, a man came up and kneeling before Jesus, 15 said, “Lord, have mercy on my son! For he has seizures and suffers terribly! He often falls into the fire, and into water. 16 I brought him to your disciples, but they couldn’t heal him.”

     17 Jesus said, “Oh you poor faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you? How long will I have to bear with you? Bring him to me.” [Twisted - diastréphō - from diá - through, thoroughly, which intensifies stréphō - turn – (so) turn thoroughly, thoroughly turned into a new shape – i.e. not the shape (form) it should be. Jesus is called “the First/Proto” and “we shall be like him”.] {Jesus is the prototype.} 18 So Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was instantly healed.

     19 Later the disciples came to Jesus and asked him, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?” 20 He said, “Because your faith is too little. But truly I tell you, if you have faith the size of a small grain of mustard seed, you’ll say to this mountain (beautiful Mt. Hermon) ‘move from here to there,’ and it’ll move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” {Can you imagine a world where imperfect beings had such abilities? It would be like “the Titans” etc. And more Titans than Hercules’.}

     22 And while still in (upper) Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of man, 23 and they’ll kill him, and he’ll be raised on the third day.” And so they were greatly distressed.

     24 When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma tax came up to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay the tax?” 25 He said, “Yes of course.”

     And when he came into the house, Jesus said to him, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of Earth take a toll/tax? From their own sons or from others?”

     26 Peter said, “From others”. And Jesus said, “Then the sons are free! 27 However, not to give offense to the collectors, go to the sea and cast in a hook and the first fish that comes up, in its mouth you’ll find a shekel. Take it and give it to them, for me and for you.”

 • Romans 15:14-21  Matthew 17:1-13

            ☀️ Romans 15:14-21

14 - I myself (Paul) am satisfied about you, my brethren, that you yourselves are full of goodness and knowledge, so you’re able to instruct one another. 15 But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given to me by God, 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the nations in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles (nations) may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit {Presence of God with}.

     17 In Christ Jesus, then, I have reason to be proud of my work for God. 18 For I’m determined to speak of nothing but what Christ has accomplished through me to bring the nations to obedience [hupakoé - attentive hearing and hearkening, from akoúō - to hear, and hypó - beneath, so the literal - submission to what is heard, compliance] in word and deed. 19 And by the power of the Spirit of God, by the power of signs and wonders, so that from Jerusalem and all the way around to Illyricum I have fulfilled the ministry of the gospel of Christ.

     20 And so I make it my ambition to proclaim the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, the foundation already laid, 21 but as it’s written, “Those who have never been told of him will see. And those who have never heard will understand.” {Prophecy telescopes.. root word of telescope is greek tel, translated as “end” but more closely means “end-aim”. Prophecy telescopes from smaller scope to full scope at the “end-aim”. Like gospel to Israel scope.. to nations, wider scope.. ..and on GWT Judgment/discernment/review/closure for all ‘Day’..wider/full scope.}

            🌙 Matthew 17:1-13

1 - Six days later {after six millennial days, imperfection/being strayed/this unavoidable contrast, will have run its course!} (Six days later) Jesus took with him Peter and James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain with himself alone [Mt.16:27, 24:31, 25:1-13, Zech.14:4]. 2 And he was transfigured before them, his face was shining as radiant as the sun, and his clothes became white like pure radiant light. 3 And look! There with them was Moses and Elijah, talking with him. {I think from a dimension called the future. Because Jesus said “no one has ascended into heaven” Jn.3:13.}

     4 And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord! It’s good we’re here! Look! I’ll make three tents! One for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah!” {Tabernacles.. “Behold! I make all new, God will now tabernacle/tent with mankind” Rev.21:5,3. Tabernacle, tent, triangle, three tents, three present.. triangle, Father, Son onLy straight out from God one, so close both administer God’s Spirit/Presence, same as will saturate and “seal” creation and humanity - When aLL is said and done, after the “8th day”/millennium - “God will now tabernacle/tent/dwell with mankind”. See Rev.20, but the chapter’s like describing the crests of waves, and not much of the in between.}

     5 Peter was still speaking when a shining cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen {always} to him.”

     6 When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified! 7 But Jesus came, touched them, and said, “Rise, and have - no - fear.” 8 And when they looked up, they saw only Jesus {the Kingdom}. 9 And as they were coming back down from the mountain, Jesus said, “Don’t tell anyone the vision, until the Son of Man is raised from the dead.”

     10 And the disciples asked him, “Why do the scribes say Elijah must come first?” 11 He answered, “Elijah indeed comes, and restores all things. 12 I say however to you that Elijah already is come, and they didn’t know him, but did to him as they pleased. And so also shall the Son of Man suffer at their hands.” 13 Then the disciples understood that he was speaking of John the Baptist. {The Elijah of their day.}

REVELATION - 18 1-8

 Apocalypse logic & riddles, weekly study, verses paraphrased [ ] references { } thots

BOOK OF REVELATION

     1 - After (all) this I (John) saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, for the earth was made bright with his radiance.

     2 He called out with a mighty voice, “Fallen! Fallen! Babylon - the great - is fallen! ‘She’ who became a dwelling place for demons! A haunt for every unclean predatory bird and spirit. {Truly dog eat dog?} {City Babylon sits on all seven hills/continents.. rode there upon the beasts of earth that will join into one beast.}

     3 For all nations have drank the wine of her passion [orge - passion, wrath]. {This is the word translated wrath when it comes to “God’s wrath” which I think of as God’s “passion”. His passion being cause and effect because an Ant Farm is no paradise. And because it’s running its course even though he, as Life, witnesses and lives through all atrocities. I can’t help thinking some actual anger, however does come into play sometimes. The old Testament word means “smoke out the nose”. Lol. Can’t forget nations around Israel were sacrificing children and babies to a fire ‘god’. And preflood was hands off..?}

     All nations have drank the wine of the wrath of her immorality. The kings of earth {are in bed with} have committed immorality with her. And the merchants of earth through her sensuality have grown rich. {Not only from free enterprise highjacked and gone extreme, but also by harnessing immorality, greek word porneia.].”

     4 Then I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins, and thus share in her plagues. 5 For her sins are heaped high as heaven {‘she’ shakes her fist at heaven?} and God has remembered her iniquities [adikéma - wrongdoings, injustices, offenses]. 6 Pay to her as she has paid to others. Repay her double what she has done, mix a double portion for her in the cup, she herself mixed. 7 As she glorified [doxazó - bestowed glory, honored, praised] herself and lived in indulgence and wantoness, so give her its torment and mourning. Because in her heart she says, ‘I am a queen, not a widow. And mourning I will never see.’ 8 For this reason her plagues [plégé - plagues, wounds, afflictions, blows] will come in a day, death, mourning, famine. And she will be destroyed by fire, for mighty is the LORD God who judges her.” {Only Good and True can stand, and endure, an iron measure. Truth is, and Truth rules. But this contrast was all set on fast forward by fallen angels being involved.. Otherwise why did God wait …so long? Not only for the first bound to occur rebel thought to occur, but to mature into outright sedition, before creating the universe, earth and man and woman?}

 • Romans 15:8-13  Matthew 16:21-28 and Rev.18:1-8 separately

            ☀️ Romans 15:8-13

8 - For I tell you that Christ became a servant to the circumcised {to the Hebrew nation ..first. - He had called and separated Israel into a new nation, in order to make himself known as separate from ‘the gods’ of the nations which were prevalent}.

      This {hearing the Good News proclaimed first} shows God's faithfulness [alétheia - truth, integrity, faithfulness] and is what was promised to the patriarchs. 9 All this so the nations might glorify God for his mercy [eleos - mercy, kindness, good will toward the afflicted, joined with a desire to relieve]. [“His mercy endures forever” Ps.136.]

     As it’s written, “Therefore I will praise [aineó - boast, shine, praise] you among the nations! I will sing to your name” [ónoma - name, authority, cause].

     10 And again it’s written, “Rejoice [euphrainó - rejoice, be glad, make merry] oh nations among his people, Israel” [Deuteronomy 32:43]. 11 And again, “Praise the Lord, all nations! And let all the peoples praise [epaineó - praise, applaud] him” [Ps.117:1] {Romans 3:4 - “..let God be true, and every man a liar, as it’s written: "That You  {God} may be justified in Your words, and will prevail in Your being judged."}

     12 And again Isaiah says, “The root of Jesse will come, even he who arises to rule the nations, in him will the nations trust” [Isaiah 11:10].

     13 May the God of hope [elpis - (hope) expectation, trust] fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit{/Presence of God} you may abound in hope [elpis - (hope?) expectation and trust!]

            🌙 Matthew 16:21-28

21 - From then on Jesus began to let his disciples know he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the leaders - the elders, chief priests and scribes {much more political than spiritual or religious/devoted}. And that he would be killed, but on the third day he would be raised.

     22 Peter took him aside and began to disagree with him, saying, “Far be it Lord! This cannot happen to you!” 23 But Jesus said, “Get behind me satan/opposer, you’re acting as a hindrance and temptation to me. For you’re not seeing as God sees, but as man sees.”

     24 Then Jesus said to them, “If anyone would come after me, let them deny theirself and take up their cross, and come and follow me. 25 For whoever will save their life {as is before Christ} will lose it {the life we think we have} but whoever loses {lets go of} their life for my sake will find it. {God has our highest blueprint!} 26 For what will it profit someone to gain the whole {wide} world and forfeit their soul? [Psuché, psychēs - life, self, inner being, heart, mind, soul, distinct identity, unique personhood.] Or what shall a person give in return for their soul/personhood? 27 For the Son of Man will be coming, with his angels, in the glory {and radiance} of his Father, and he will repay each one according to what they have done.

     28 Truly, I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.” {Prophecy is often in two scopes, a first more specific, smaller scope, and later global in scope. In this case after 70 CE, Jerusalem’s Armageddon, came what’s called the church age.. Age of the wheat. And at (the modern, total) Armageddon is his full, and in person, coming, after which is “the” millennium, first half of the Lord’s long second advent. See Rev.20, but the chapter is portrayed like describing the crests of waves and not a lot of the in between.}

 • Romans 15:1-7  Matthew 16:13-20

           ☀️ Romans 15:1-7

1 - We who are strong have an obligation to bear with the weakness [asthenéma - weakness, infirmity, doubt, hesitation] of the weaker. It’s not a matter of pleasing ones self.

     2 But let each of us please our neighbor, for their good, to build them up. 3 For Christ didn’t please himself, but as it’s written, “The insults of those who insult you, fell upon me.” 4 For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction and guidance. The encouragement - of the Scriptures - {see note below, translation errors due to partial dis-belief?} is that we might have hope [elpis - (hope) expectation, trust, confidence]. 5 May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in union with Jesus, 6 that together you may with one voice glorify God, the Father of our Lord Jesus. 7 Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you! For the cause of promoting the glory (glorious renown) of God.

  List of Some Translation Errors ~~ Added to God’s riddles/hiding things in plain sight, has made things difficult. 

     ~~ Changed “all” whenever possible, to “all things” yes, in Rev.21:5. Also Eph.1:10, Jn.13:3, and more. In 1Cor.15:27, five times! And so repeating what 5 times? But not in verse 28, because “that God be all things in all things” just doesn’t quite get it.. Nor in 2Tim.3:16, for example “all scripture for training”.

     ~~ Often rendered not into never

and aion/eon into forever. And aionion/eonian as eternal instead of “of an age” and pertaining to an age or space of time.

     ~~ Translating hamartia - missing the mark,

as “sin” (trespass) misses the mark a little, as hamartia means - missing the mark. (Imperfect ..Whereas, God is Life, and “is perfect” Mt.5:48, a conundrum for imperfect/missing the mark. “The wage/effect/result of missing the mark” is..? But no option to stray in Eden, and creation would have to be an ant farm? So “God is savior of all” 1Tim.4:10. Being Life God suffers everything.) 

     ~~ Of course five separate words were turned into ‘hell’, even pit when “dust of” is in the verse - Ps.30:9. The three mentions of lake of fire are at very large (actually huGe) fiery events. Not very understandable in 95 CE or thereabouts, Is.24:20/Rev.10:4 (Ps.91,46,23, Rev7:15-17)

            🌙 Matthew 16:13-20

13 - As they were coming into the district of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” 14 And they answered, “Some say you’re John the Baptist, others say Elijah, or Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 And he said, “But who do you say I am?” 16 Peter answered, “You are the Christ!” {Christos - Anointed One, Messiah} “Son of the living God!” {Only straight out from the Father, so close both admininister His Spirit/Presence, same as will saturate and “seal” all creation and humanity.}

     17 “You are blessed, Simon (Peter) Bar-Jonah/Son of Jonah” Jesus said. “For no one has told you this. My Father in heaven has shown it to you. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock” {belief, knowing, Peter means rock} “I will build my church, and the gates of hell will noT prevail against it.” {Likely was speaking Aramaic, so gates of sheol “where there is no doing or knowing” (awareness) Eccles.9:5,10. “Oh death, where is thy sting!?” 1Cor.15:55}

      19 “I will give to you {disciples/followers following} the keys to the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind upon earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose upon earth shall be loosed in heaven.” {The mature state, when God’s Spirit/Presence flows cleanly through us without our various impediments, of corners and shadows? Thus flows fully outward with healing, repairing, able to make whole, according to God’s blueprint. That God is Life and “is perfect” (Mt.5:48) means nothing imperfect can endure.} 20 Then he strictly charged them to tell no one that he was the Christ.
