 • 1 Timothy 5:8-15  Matthew 24:15-22 and Rev. 21:4-9 separately

            ☀️ 1 Timothy 5:8-15

8 - But if anyone doesn’t provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. 9 Let a widow be enrolled if she’s not less than sixty years of age, 10 and having a reputation for good works, has brought up children, shown hospitality, has helped in the care for believers and the afflicted, and devoted herself to life’s good works. 11 But refuse to enroll younger widows, for if passions draw them away from Christ, they will want to marry 12 and so feel guilt for having abandoned their devotion. 13 Besides that, they may learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only being idle, but also gossiping and being busybodies, saying things they shouldn’t. 14 It would be better if younger widows marry, bear children, manage their households, and give the adversary no occasion for slander. 15 For some have already strayed after Satan. {Sadly over time we also have had some skirt chasing ‘pastors’.}

            🌙 Matthew 24:15-22

15 - “So - when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet DANIEL, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand) —

     [DANIEL 9:27 speaks of ..”a strong treaty (berith - covenant, league, treaty) with many that lasts one week (of years). BUT in the middle of the week, will cause sacrifices to cease” {or place of? Hebrews 13:15 “..let us offer the sacrifice of praise” - Luke 19:41,44? “Jerusalem, Jerusalem.. not one stone shall remain in you, that is not thrown down.”

   “Share your hopes and prayers at the Western Wall” - from Jewish learning dot com, article - What Is The Western Wall}. DANIEL 11:31 - “Forces from {notorious} him shall appear and defile the holy place and refuge, and shall take away the continual (tamid - perpetual, continual) sacrifices and place (there) the abomination that desolates” - During the Maccabees, the Syrian, Antiochus Epiphanes, offered a pig upon the TEMPLE altar; in 70 CE the razing Roman army under Titus hung Roman standards on the ramparts of the TEMPLE; at the completion/end of the age is surely? the misleading modern miracle of the triple six, this time upon the human TEMPLE meant for God’s Spirit/Presence? (1Corinthians 3:16)..

   DANIEL 12:11,12 - “And from the time the continual (the Hebrew means perpetual) is taken away (sur - turned aside, departed, taken away or removed) and the abomination that makes desolate is set up, will be 1,290 days”. Which is 3.5 Hebrew years plus 30 days. “And happy is the one/those who wait, and come to the days 1,335” — {Summary? — “In the middle of the week” - a lauded treaty only lasts a week of years, and in the middle of it, the {place of} perpetual sacrifice (of prayers?) is taken away or removed, then 1,290 days later is “set up” the final abomination which desolates/makes ‘empty’. Happy those who come to the days 1,335. — The last “ten days” escalating to most critical? Rev.2:10.]

     15 - “So - when you see the {an} abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand) 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.” {Triple 6 first running in Israel? Finally Satan in the gates? But not for long..} 17 “Let the one who’s on the housetop (an ancient Israeli practice) not go down to take what is in the house, 18 and let the one who’s in the field not turn back to take their coat. 19 Alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! 20 Pray your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be equaled again. 22 And if - for the elect’s sake - those days were not shortened, no flesh would survive.”

JOHN 10 22-32

🍃🕊️ 03/25 - GospeL Verses 🕊️🍃

                 (paraphrased)

22 - At that time the Feast of Dedication took place at Jerusalem. [Feast of (re)Dedication - after pulling down the altar of burnt-offerings, which had been profaned by Antiochus Epiphanies - 1 Maccabees 4:59 - “Judas (Maccabee) and his brothers, with the whole congregation of Israel, ordained, that the days of the dedication of the altar should be kept in their season, from year to year by the space of eight days, from the five and twentieth day of the month Casleu, with mirth and gladness.”]

     It was winter, 23 and Jesus was walking in the temple (complex), under the shelter of the colonnade [stoa - colonnade, portico, porch] of Solomon. 24 So the leaders gathered around him and questioned him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly!” 25 Jesus answered, “I’ve told you, and you don’t believe. The works I do in my Father's name testify of me. 26 But you don’t believe because you’re not from among my sheep. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them enduring life, and they will not perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one.” {He prayed believers would be one like he and his Father are one” Jn.17:11.}

     31 They then picked up stones again to stone him. 32 But Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father, for which one are you going to stone me?”

Daniel 11 Study

 Paraphrased with Interpretation

     1 - “Also in the first year of Darius the Mede, I (arch angel) stood up to strengthen him. (I read in a commentary, “to consider the restoration of Israel and pass that on to his nephew Cyrus?”) 2 There will arise three more kings of Persia, then a fourth far richer and stronger who will stir up all against Greece. 3 Then (later) a mighty king of great dominion (vast conquest).. 4 But as soon as he has risen, his kingdom shall be broken and divided toward the four winds. (Alexander the Great of Greece who died young and his conquests went to four of his generals).

    Wars and intrigues, wars and intrigues..

Between the two powers of north and south, Syria and Egypt, the Seleucids and Ptolomies,  lies Israel. Then throw Greece into the mix.. the spiritual/psychological conquerer.

     15 Then the king of the north makes war. (Antiochus the great? Whose daughter was Cleopatra, which Egypt was briefly given over to?)

     21 And will come to stand up a vile person (Antiochus Epiphanies, great persecuter of Israel, an a.c. and type of the final a.c.. During the days of the Maccabees) ..he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries. 31 Forces from him shall appear and profane the temple and fortress. He shall take away the regular burnt offering. And they shall set up the abomination that makes desolate. (He sacrificed a pig to Jupiter on the altar of the temple.) 32 He shall seduce with flattery 33 but the wise among the people shall make many understand, though for some days they shall stumble by sword and flame, by captivity and plunder. 34 When they stumble, they shall receive a little help. And many shall join themselves to them with flattery. (I think here is where the pattern more visibly expands and repeats bringing us to the global fulfillment.) 35 And some of the wise shall stumble, so that they may be refined, purified, and made white, until the time of the end, for the appointed time awaits. 36 And the king [melek - king, royal] shall do as he wills. He will exalt himself and magnify himself above every god (man as highest power? And some supposedly evolved superior? lol) and shall speak astonishing things against the God of gods. He shall prosper till the indignation is completed/spent for what is decreed/destined shall be done. 37 ..He will magnify himself above all gods. (Again, man as highest power. The stronG rise, aka, rule.) 38 He shall honor a god of strength ..a god his fathers didn’t know he shall honor with wealth and gifts. 39 He shall deal with the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god. (..? Plays two sides?) Those who acknowledge him he shall advance... make them rulers over many and the land he’ll divide for gain.

     40 At the time of the end, the king of the south shall attack him, but the king of the north shall rush upon him like a whirlwind.. wars and battles.. 41 He will come into the glorious [tsbiy - beautiful, prominent] land  43 He shall become ruler of the treasures of gold and of silver ($$) and all the precious things of Egypt, and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall march in his train. 44 But news from the east and the north shall alarm him, and he shall go out with great fury to destroy many to destruction. 45 And shall pitch his palatial tents between the sea and the glorious holy mountain. Yet he shall come to his end, with none to help him. (One prophecy? Or at least two?)

     - North, south and east against him..
