Hebrews 5:10-14  Matthew 2:1-12 and ACTS 4:1-22 separately

             ☀️ A.M. Hebrews 5:10-14

10 - So Jesus being designated and declared by God, a high priest after the order of Melchizedek, 11 about this we have much to say, which is hard to explain, since you’ve become dull of hearing! {Melchizedek seeming to be “a priest forever” confirms Jesus’ pre-existence with God. He being “forever first” (proto) and onLy straight out from God one.}

     12 By this time you ought to be teachers! But you need someone to teach you again the primary, basic and beginning principles of the message of God. You still need milk, and not solid food.

     13 Everyone living on milk lacks skill in the message of righteousness and justice [dikaiosuné - righteousness, justice] since they are still but a child.

     14 But solid food is for the mature. For those having sharpened their powers of discernment, by the constant practice of distinguishing good from evil.

     [Good & evil - KALOS - good, beautiful, noble, excellent, honest, honorable, beneficial, tends toward life; and KAKOS - bad, evil, wicked, harmful, noisome, injurious; from root kakía - inner malice,  compromised, as in the "rot is already in the wood"]. {Imperfection/entropy/decay/corruption.. hamartia - “missing the mark” translated sin. Imperfect is an abyss of potential (Rev.9:2). God is Life, and “is Perfect”. Perfect is the final Word of everything. But there’s the matter of at least some power of choice is included in being able to think and reason. God as Life lives through and experiences all things that occur.. and endowed thinking and reasoning to man and angel anyway.. Engineered it so the drama is a one and done.

     “In spite of ourselves, we’ll wind up a sittin’ on a rainbow.. In spite of ourselves..” John Prine.. “nothin’ but big ole hearts shining in our eyes..”

            🌙 P.M. Matthew 2:1-12

1 - After Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of king Herod the Great, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, 2 saying, “Where is he who’s been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and we’ve come to worship him.”

     3 Now when Herod (a Hebrew/Jew) heard this, he was vexed, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 So assembling the leaders of the people, the chief priests and scribes, he questioned them where the Christ was prophesied to be born. 5 They told him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it is written by the prophet, 6 ‘And you, O Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah. For from you shall come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’”

     7 Then Herod secretly having called the wise men inquired of them what time the star had appeared. 8 And he sent them on to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search diligently for the child, and when you’ve found him, bring me word, so I too may come and worship him.”

     9 After this, the wise men {astronomer, astrologers} went on their way. And behold, the star they had seen when it rose went before them until it came to rest over the place where the child was. 10 And when they saw it, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. 11 And going inside, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they knelt and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts, gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 And then warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed to their own country by another way.

 • 1 Timothy 4:1-8  Matthew 23:29-39

            ☀️ 1 Timothy 4:1-8

1 - Now the Spirit has clearly said in times to come some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to misleading spirits and the teachings of demons. 2 And through fraudulent liars whose consciences are seared, 3 who deny marriage and require laws about foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, 5 for it is made holy - by the word of God and prayer.

     6 If you put these things before the brothers and sisters, Timothy, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, being trained in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine that you have followed.

     7 Avoid silly myths. Rather pursue godliness, 8 for while bodily training is of some value, training in godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life {life as we presently know it} and for the coming life {life as it shall be}.

            🌙 Matthew 23:29-39

29 - “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees! Pretenders! For you build the tombs of the prophets and you decorate the monuments of the righteous, 30 saying, ‘If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have joined them in shedding the blood of the prophets!’

     31 Thus you witness against yourselves, that you’re sons of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers. 33 You serpents! And brood of vipers! How will you flee the justice of gehenna?” {This slow gehenna crucible - entropy, “which does noT quit”.}

     34 “Therefore I send you prophets and wise men and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog and persecute from town to town.” {Like Saul/Paul did!!} 35 “So that on you may come all the righteous blood shed upon earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah the son of Barachiah, who you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar. 36 Truly, I tell you, all will come upon this generation {70 CE}.

     37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it!” {‘Micro’ example of the macro Truth. We aLL like sheep have gone astray”. And ’Micro’ fulfillment of prophecy, the effects of cause and effect, God’s wrath/from greek, orge/passion. As opposed to humanity as a mere ant farm?}

     “How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing! 38 See, your house is left to you desolate. 39 For I tell you - you will not see me again - untiL you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD.’” {Cross references: Rev.7:9,4 and 12:17, chapter 12 as the middle of three tellings of the revelation vision, which rejoin at the sounding of the 7th trumpet.}

🌙 1 - After Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, during the days of Herod the king, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, 2 saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star rising and have come to worship him.” {They were Chaldean/Babylonian astrologers. God granted Solomon “wisdom greater than those from the east” ..and Solomon still strayed and fell away from sacred friendship with God/life.. i.e. Solomon dropped his end.}

     3 And when Herod the king heard of this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 And calling a meeting with the chief priests and scribes, the leaders of the people, he asked them where the Christ was to be born. 5 And they said, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for it’s written by the prophet, 6 ‘You Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the cities of Judah, for from out of you shall come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’” {WhY does “the world” despise Israel? The “god of this world sure does”.}

     7 Then Herod (called ‘great’) sent secretly for the wise men to find out from them what time they had seen the star appear. 8 And then as they were leaving he said to them, “Search diligently for the child, and when you find him send word to me, so I too may come and pay homage to him.” 9 And after agreeing they continued on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose, went before them, until it came to rest over the place where the child was. 10 And when they saw it, they rejoiced with great joy. 11 And going into the place, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they knelt around him and paid homage to him. Then, opening their wares, they offered him gifts, gold, frankincense and myrrh. {For expenses.} 12 And then being warned in a dream not to send word to Herod, they went back to their own country by a different way.

13 - Now when the wise men from the east had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Rise, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you, for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him.” {Rev.12:4, the chapter being the middle telling of three tellings of the revelation vision, but verse 17 needs Mt.23:39. The other two tellings are 6:1-2 to 11:19 and 13:1 to 19:11. Then the three rejoin at the seventh trumpet’s sounding. In chapter six is the first veiling.. but once we know it’s there? It’s a riddle! Veils the entire vision, but especially the sixth seal and chapter seven.}

     14 So he rose and took the child and his mother by night and went to Egypt 15 and they stayed there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what the LORD had spoken by the prophet, “Out of Egypt I called my Son.”

     16 Then Herod (the Great) when he saw he had been tricked by the wise men, became furious, and he sent and had killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all the region around, who were two years old or under, according to the time that he had ascertained from the wise men. 17 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah, 18 “A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children, she refused to be comforted, because they are no more.” [Ramah is the hill overlooking Bethlehem where Rachel was buried.]

     19 Now when Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, 20 saying, “Rise, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who sought the child's life are dead.” 21 And he rose and took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there, and being warned in a dream he withdrew to the district of Galilee. 23 And they lived in a city called Nazareth, so what was spoken by the prophets was fulfilled, that he would be called a Nazarene.

7 - The thing is, land that has soaked up the rain that falls upon it produces a crop. A crop useful to those for whose sake it has been planted and they receive it as a blessing from God. 8 But if it bears thorns and thistles, it’s worthless and near to being cursed, and that piece of land will be burned (trials and tribulation). (To improve its state! It is not thrown into a fiery pit to burn forever and ever! Whose fantasy might thAt be?!)

     9 Though we speak in this way, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better things, things that go with salvation [sótéria - deliverance, salvation, from sozo - to save, rescue] (from death and its cause). 10 For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for his name [onoma - name, authority, cause] in your having a heart of serving other believers, and as you still do. 11 And we desire each one of you to keep the same earnestness to the ‘end’, which earnestness of heart, is the full assurance of your hope [elpis - “expectation, from elpō - to anticipate, welcome – properly, expectation of what is sure and certain”].

1 - After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi (astrologers? considered to be wise men) from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and we have come to worship him.” 3 When King Herod heard this he was very agitated, and so all Jerusalem with him. 4 He called together the nation’s chief priests and teachers of the law, asked them where the Messiah was to be born. 5 “In Bethlehem of Judea,” they answered, “for this is what the prophet has written - 6 ‘You, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are not least among the rulers of Judah, for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’” 7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared, 8 and then he sent them on their way to Bethlehem saying, “Go and search for the child, and as soon as you find him, report it to me, so that I too may come and worship him.” 9 So they went on their way, and the star they had seen went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. 10 And when they saw the star, they were joyful. 11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their own country by another route.

11 - For we the living are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal selves. 12 So death is at work in us. But life in you! 13 Having however the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed, and so I spoke,” we also believe, and so we also speak, 14 knowing that the one who raised the Lord Jesus, will also through Jesus, raise us together with you. 15 For all is for your sake, so that as grace extends more and more, thanksgiving will abound more and more, to the glory of God. 16 So we do not lose heart! Though our outward self is wasting away, our inner self is being built up and renewed day by day. 17 For this light and momentary affliction (this unavoidable and all important contrast) is preparing for us an enduring weight of glory beyond all comparison! 18 So we look not to the outward matters that are seen, but to the inner things that are not seen. For the things being seen are temporary, but the things that are unseen are enduring [aionia, as opposed to short lived].

         Matthew 2:1-12

1 - Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod. About that time some wise men from eastern lands arrived in Jerusalem, asking, 2 “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” 3 King Herod was deeply disturbed when he heard this, as was all Jerusalem. 4 He called a meeting of the leaders, the priests and teachers of the religious law and asked them where the Messiah was to be born. 5 “In Bethlehem, as the prophet wrote,” they said. 6 “'Bethlehem in the land of Judah, you are by no means the least of the cities of Judah. For from you will come a leader who will guide my people Israel.'" 7 Then Herod called for a private meeting with the wise men, and he learned from them the time when the star first appeared. 8 Saying to them, "Go to Bethlehem and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, let me know. And I will go and worship him too."

     9 After they had heard the king, they continued, and the star they had seen rising led them until it stopped over the place where the child was. 10 And when they saw the star there, they rejoiced with great gladness. 11 And coming to the place they entered and saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. And gave him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 Then having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another way.

           ~ Hebrews 5:10-14 ~

10 God declared Jesus to be high priest, in the priestly order of Melchizedek. 11 Much more could be said about this subject. But it is hard to explain, and all are slow to understand. 12 By now you should be teachers. Instead, you still need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word. Like babies needing milk and not able to digest solid food. 13 Anyone who has to drink milk is still a child, without any experience in the matter of right and wrong and is unskilled in the word of righteousness. 14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses (common sense?)  exercised to discern good from evil(/not good).
