1 Corinthians 15:55-57

New King James Version (NKJV)

” “O ‘Death’ [Chedel: State of the dead, etc..] where is your sting? O ‘Hades’ [Sheol: Grave, World of the dead, etc..], where is your victory?” The sting of ‘death’ [ha-chedel (the-world): (the-)state of the dead, (the-)rest, etc..] is sin, and the ‘strength’ [nesach: end, always, etc..] of sin is the ‘law’ [mitsvah: command(-ments), precept, etc..]. But thanks be to ‘God’ [ha-‘Elohiym: the-Magistrates, the-Angels, etc..], who gives us the victory through our ‘Lord’ [shaliysh: great measure, great quantity, etc..] ‘Jesus Christ’ [YH’shua ha-Mashiyach: (ha-‘YH’:the-Name, Word and Works, of Israel’s ‘Elohiym) -(‘shua’: that saves), the consecrated).”

Paraphrasing Messiah ‘Jesus’ (YH’shua: YH’Saves), “Those who believe in me will do as I do and greater things, “ (See: John 14:12)

And ofcourse, a lesson of obedience, to the bitter-end, that our Messiah was elevated over the state of the dead, the world, the message behind our Messiah’s ministry; a beginning really, and our example to follow – that we may all find life from the condition of ‘the dead’ [ha-chedel: the world, etc..].

That as our Messiah was put to death – he would be risen from the body of Adam, the flesh, that we too may be: A guide to the faithful and a warning to the lost.

May this Passover shine YHVH’s wisdom upon you and yours. May Messiah’s teaching of obedience to the his ‘Principal’ (Ab: Father) – YHVH, bring you peace, health, and prosperity:

Always in YH’shua, the “way, the truth, and the life”…. the Worthy One.

‘Amein’ (Amen: So be it, Truth, etc..)

The significance of the Name of the heavenly ‘Elohiym:

YHWH, the I AM: (Replaced with Lord ~7000 times in scripture)

I AM THAT I AM or WILL BE, ETC.

“According to the Hebrew Bible, in the encounter of the burning bush (Exodus 3:14) Moses asks what he is to say to the Israelites when they ask what ‘gods’ (‘Elohiym) have sent him to them, and YHWH replies, “I am who I am”, adding, “Say this to the people of Israel, ‘I am has sent me to you.’ ”

The Name that is ‘the spirit’ (ha-ruwach: the expression of, the mind of, etc..), as also to say, the Word and Works of, the Bible’s true ‘Elohiym!

“I AM THAT I AM”…. Will You Be?
