Maria's Writing in Response to Paul
What is the Name Above Every Other Name? Is it Jesus
or YaHuWShuA?
*Disclaimer: To those who would read the title of this message and
automatically assume that I am teaching that those who call upon the
name of "Jesus" or "Yeshua" are not saved, I am
not saying that at all. I believe that according to Romans 8:23, the
Holy Spirit interprets the deep groanings of our hearts, and he knows
who people are calling upon even when they have the pronunciation and
spelling of his name wrong. But the Name of the Father and the Son
is being restored in these last days, and so we have to move with the
Holy Spirit and allow this revelation of his true name to come forth.
We must not be content to remain stagnant but let us go on "unto
perfection."
By reading this verse in English, it would appear that the “name
under heaven whereby we are saved” is JESUS CHRIST:
Acts 4
10Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that
by the name of Jesus Christ (Yahushua Messiah) of Nazareth, whom ye
crucified, whom Elohim (God) raised from the dead, even by him doth
this man stand here before you whole.
11This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which
is become the head of the corner.
12Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other
name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
But a careful study in the prophet Zechariah reveals to us the true
name of our High Priest YaHuWShuA the Messiah who is prophetically
called “the Branch.” In this prophecy, the “high
priest” has a name JOSHUA or YEHOSHUA in Modern Hebrew but YaHuWShuA
is how it is rendered in Ancient Paleo Hebrew.
Zechariah 3:8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows
that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold,
I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
How can we be certain that Zechariah is being shown the Messiah rather
than “Joshua the Son of Nun” from the days of Moses?
Let’s take a look at the entire prophecy:
Zechariah 3
1And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel
of YHWH, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.
2And YHWH said unto Satan, YHWH rebuke thee, O Satan; even YHWH that
hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out
of the fire?
3Now YHWShuA (Joshua) was clothed with filthy garments, and stood
before the angel.
4And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying,
Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold,
I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee
with change of raiment.
*Note: what are these filthy garments on Joshua? Our Messiah came “in
the likeness of sinful flesh that he could destroy sin in the flesh” (Romans
8:3). The filthy garment was the garment of his sinful body. When our
Messiah “put off the body of sins in the flesh”, by his
crucifixion, he then “put on the new incorruptible body” through
his resurrection. (Colossians 2:11).
Ephesians 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after Elohim
(God) is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Colossians 2:11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision
made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh
by the circumcision of Messiah:
Colossians 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge
after the image of him that created him:
Who created Messiah’s body? It was his heavenly Father who created
Messiah’s earthly body:
Hebrews 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice
and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
Another proof of this is when we see the following verses in the Ancient
Paleo Hebrew:
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning Elohim (God) created the heaven and the
earth.
What does this verse really say in the Ancient Paleo Hebrew?
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning Elohim (God) created the Alef & the
Tav.
What is the “Alef & Tav”?
The Greek Letters "Alpha & Omega" are the first and
last letters in the Greek Alphabet. Our Messiah called himself "Alpha & Omega" in
the book of Revelation as he is illustrated as the one who is eternal
and he is the one who has no beginning nor end:
Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending,
saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the
Almighty.
In the Hebrew Alphabet, the first letter known as "Alpha" (in
Greek) is "Aleph" and it is symbolized by the Ox or "the
sacrificial animal."
Every letter in the Ancient Paleo Hebrew Alphabet paints a picture
of our Messiah.
The Aleph is the Ox or Sacrificial Animal!
The Last letter in the Ancient Paleo Hebrew is the letter "Tav" and
it is in the shape of a cross.
These two Hebrew letters are "pictograph" of the cross where
our Messiah was crucified.
Do you realize what the Aleph & Tav is painting a picture of?
It is a picture of the SACRIFICIAL ANIMAL BEING NAILED TO A CROSS!
Pictured here we see the ALEPH & TAV = The Sacrificial Animal
being nailed to the cross!
The same thing is illustrated again in Zechariah 12:10:
Zechariah 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon
the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications:
and they shall look upon ME (YHWH) whom they have pierced, and they
shall mourn for HIM (Yahushua), as one mourneth for his only son, and
shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his
firstborn.
So we see that it was YHWH (the Heavenly Father) who was being pierced
and it was “Yahushua” the Messiah (the Son) whose image
that they will behold!
The Ancient Paleo Hebrew Characters reveals something even more astonishing.
What we see above in the Paleo Hebrew Characters is the following:
Zechariah 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon
the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications:
and they shall look upon Aleph & Tav H853whom they have pierced,
and they shall mourn for HIM (YaHuWShuA), H5921 for as one mourneth
for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is
in bitterness for his firstborn.
What this is saying is that the House of David will mourn for YaHuWaH’s
body (the Aleph & Tav----the body that they have pierced) and they
will mourn for YaHuWShua the Messiah!
Now we know who the “High Priest Joshua” is in Zechariah
3. It is none other than our Messiah YaHuWShuA:
Yod, Hey, Waw, Shin, Ayin
YaHuWShuA
You will notice that the name of the Son contains the letters of the
Father plus two added letters, the “shin” which means “tooth” and
the “ayin” which means “the eye.”
Yod = (Yad) the hand
Hey = Breath, Revelation, Inspiration, Wind
Vav (Waw) = the nail
Shin = the tooth
Ayin = the eye
Let’s continue with the prophecy in Zechariah 3:
5And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set
a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the
angel of YHWH stood by.
6And the angel of YHWH protested unto YHWShuA (Joshua), saying,
7Thus saith YHWH of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou
wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt
also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these
that stand by.
8Hear now, O YHWShuA (Joshua) the high priest, thou, and thy fellows
that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I
will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
9For behold the stone that I have laid before YHWShuA (Joshua); upon
one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof,
saith YHWH of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in
one day.
10In that day, saith YHWH of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour
under the vine and under the fig tree.
What are we reading about here? We are reading about YaHuWShuA the
High Priest (our Messiah) receiving a crown upon his head (Revelation
19:12).
And the “stone” which the builders rejected (Acts 4:11)
was laid before this High Priest named YaHuWShua! And this stone has “seven
eyes” which are the “seven spirits of YHWH”:
Revelation 5:6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and
of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as
it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the
seven Spirits of Elohim (God) sent forth into all the earth.
In this passage, we will note that the NAME of the “High Priest” is “Joshua” in
English, but in Modern Hebrew, his name is YEHOSHUA. In Ancient Hebrew,
there are no vowel points so the name is rendered as YHWSA or YaHuWShuA.
Now, let’s take a look at the meaning of the name Yehoshua in
the Hebrew Strong’s Concordance:
Result of search for "joshua":
#3091 Yhowshuwa` yeh-ho-shoo'-ah or Yhowshua {yeh-ho-shoo'-ah}; from
3068 and 3467; Jehovah-saved; Jehoshua (i.e. Joshua), the Jewish leader:--Jehoshua,
Jehoshuah, Joshua. Compare 1954, 3442.
YHWSA = the Savior’s name in Paleo Hebrew minus the added vowels
YaHuWShuA
So how did we end up with YeHoShuA instead of YaHuWShuA?
The Letter “W” (the vav) was removed by the Masorites
as seen by the name Yehoshua. The “vav” means “the
nail” or the hook. Could it be that the Masorites did not want
to believe that Yahushua Messiah was the same one who was “nailed
to the tree”? Could it be that they removed the “waw” or
the “vav” from the name for that reason?
In the 10th Century, the Masoretic Scribes of the Hebrew Scriptures
invented a grammatical rule called “pre-tonal shortening” that
says, that whenever the Heavenly Father’s name appears at the
end of the names of prophets, his name (YAHU) would appear as it
is.
Examples:
Isaiah = YeshaYAHU
Jeremiah = YirmeYAHU
Elijah = EliYAHU
Nathaniel = NetanYAHU
But in Modern Hebrew, a new grammatical rule was invented known as "pre-tonal
shortening" which states that when the Father's name comes at
the beginning of a name, then it changes from a "Yahu" to
a "Yeho." This "pre-tonal" shortening rule did
not exist in the days when YHWH revealed himself to Moses and the
Prophets.
Hence the names of the prophets would've been spelled differently
in the Ancient Hebrew than they are today in Modern Hebrew. Examples
are seen as follows:
Joshua = Yehoshua = YAHUshua (ancient Hebrew)
Jonathan = Yehonathan = YAHUnathan (ancient Hebrew)
Jehovah = Yehovah = YAHUwah (ancient Hebrew)
The name of our Messiah is actually the name "Joshua" which
is rendered "Yehoshua" in modern Hebrew, and Yahushua in
ancient Hebrew due to the fact that there was no "pre-tonal shortening
rule" in ancient Hebrew. The Hebrew name Joshua means "Yahu
is salvation" or "Yahu has saved."
When calling him Yahu'shua we are declaring that the Father has saved
us in the past and he is continuing to save us in the present and in
the future through his Son!
You will notice that the name of the Son contains the letters of the
Father plus two added letters, the “shin” which means “the
tooth” and the “ayin” which means “the eye.” Why
the tooth and the eye? I will get to that later on in this teaching,
but first, let’s understand how his name has been altered over
time. Okay, so we can see that the name of our Saviour (Joshua) contains
the following Hebrew Letters:
Yod = (Yad) the hand
Hey = Breath, Revelation, Inspiration, Wind
Vav (Waw) = the nail
Shin = the tooth
Ayin = the eye
You will notice that the name “Joshua” in Hebrew has the
4 Letters from the name of our Heavenly Father’s name which is
called the “Tetragrammaton.” These 4 Letters are called “Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey” today
in Modern Hebrew. The “vav” has the “v” sound
today, but at one time (before the 10th Century) in Ancient Paleo Hebrew,
the “vav” used to be pronounced as a “waw” or “w” sound.
Hence we see the letters Y H W S A in the name of the High Priest.
You will notice that the original pronunciation and spelling of the
name Joshua in the original Ancient Hebrew is as follows: Yhowshuwa
The letter “w” is meant to have the sound of “oo” as
in “cool.” With the letters shown above (before the Masorites
added in the vowel points in the 10th Century) we can ascertain that
the name sounds like this: Yo-u-shuwah with the letter “o” having
the short vowel sound as in “otter.” Hence we have Yah-u-shua.
As we can see, the modern rendition of this name from the time of
the 10th Century (when the Masorites added in the English vowel points
for King James), it became Yehoshua.
Why did they make these changes? Because the Masorites believed that
the name of our Heavenly Father was “too holy to pronounce” so
they endeavored to “hide the name” from the Gentiles. They
were afraid that the Gentiles would make his name “common” and
they would blaspheme his name, so they no longer would use the sacred
name YAH. They instead made his name appear as YEHO whenever the name
of the Father appeared at the beginning of the name of a prophet:
The name of our Heavenly Father is YAH:
#3050 Yahh yaw contraction for 3068, and meaning the same; Jah, the
sacred name:--Jah, the Lord, most vehement. Compare names in "-iah," "-
jah."
#3068 Yhovah yeh-ho-vaw' from 1961; (the) self-Existent or Eternal;
Jehovah, Jewish national name of God:--Jehovah, the Lord. Compare
3050, 3069.
Okay so we can see that the Father’s name of YHVH or in ancient
Hebrew YHWH but the Masorites added in the vowels E O A for YEHOVAH
but it should be YAHUWAH in the original Hebrew.
Now that we understand that the name of our Messiah YaHuWShuA contains
the letters from the name of the Father YaHuWaH, we can now read this
scripture and understand whose name is the name above every other name:
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none
other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Philippians 2
5Let this mind be in you, which was also in Messiah YaHuWShuA:
6Who, being in the form of Elohim (God), thought it not robbery to
be equal with Elohim (God):
7But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of
a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
*Note: Joshua, the High Priest in Zechariah 3 took upon him the “form
of a servant” (Zechariah 3:8) and was made in the “likeness
of men” (having filthy garments) in Zechariah 3:4.
Philippians 2
8And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became
obedient unto death (a servant is obedient to his Master), even the
death of the cross.
9Wherefore Elohim (God) also hath highly exalted him, and given him
a name which is above every name:
10That at the name of YHWShuA, (Jesus) every knee should bow, of things
in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11And that every tongue should confess that YaHuWShuA Messiah (Jesus
Christ) is YaHuWaH (Lord), to the glory of Elohim (God) the Father.
What does the word “glory” mean in this passage? It means “to
bear the image of the Father”!
You see the Son (YaHuWShuA) bears the image of his Father YaHuWaH
and so the Name Above Every Other Name is the Name of the Father which
is seen inside of the name of the Son!
YaHuWSHuA is the Name above every other Name!
These three letters of the Tetragrammaton (YHW) are found in the Savior's
birth Name -- anything between these first letters are vowels that
were supplied by the translators or scribes, and they are not part
of the actual Name. English vowels act as pronunciation aid and are
not part of the Sacred Name in its purist form. Some wish to use the
pronunciation Yeshua as this is what is found in the Torah, as copied
by the scribes. It should be realized, that the scribes, the copyist
and the publishing houses add the vowel "e" at their own
discretion. You will notice the obvious, the second letter of the Tetragrammaton, "H",
has been dropped and replaced with the "e" vowel.
Men have decided (in their own wisdom), to drop part of our Savior's
Name by removing the letters “W” so instead of YaHuWShuA
(as seen in the original Hebrew text) we see his name as YeHoShuA.
They further shortened his name to YeShuA and removed the “Hey” or
the “H” (part of the Father’s name). This is why
in Arabic, his name is rendered ISA to Muslims. They translate the “Y” to
a letter “I” and so we end up with just Yod-Shin-Ayin for
his name instead of the full identity of the Father’s name YHWHSA.
Why do you suppose the devil wants to conceal this identity? Because
Islam teaches that the Father (YHWH) has no son, therefore they have
to remove his Father’s name from the Son’s name!
How did we end up with the name Jesus?
The letter “J” did not exist in the English alphabet until
around the 1500’s. The original 1611 King James Bible did not
have any letter “J’s” in it at all! The letter “I” was
used wherever the letter “J” is now used in Modern English
Bibles. Hence the name Jesus used to be rendered as IeoSus. The letter “I” was
a substitute for the letter “Y” and so one more letter
belonging to the Father (the Yod) was removed from the Son’s
name leaving only the letter “Shin” (the S). From the original
Father’s name in the Son’s name (YHWSA) we ended up with
ONLY the Letter “S” which is the letter found in Satan!
Satan’s name in Hebrew does not change one bit in the English,
but the name of our Father and our Messiah have been completely altered!
#7854 satan saw-tawn' from 7853; an opponent; especially (with the
article prefixed) Satan, the arch-enemy of good:--adversary, Satan,
withstand.
1st Chronicles 21:1 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked
David to number Israel.
Ancient Paleo Hebrew renders it like this:
#853 'eth ayth apparent contracted from 226 in the demonstrative sense
of entity; properly, self (but generally used to point out more definitely
the object of a verb or preposition, even or namely):--(as such unrepresented
in English).
You will note that there is a Hebrew word missing in the English translation.
That word is #853 meaning an “entity” and who is this “entity”?
The Hebrew characters reveal who the “entity” is that comes
in front of the name DAVID, and it is the “Aleph & Tav” (Alpha & Omega
in Greek). In other words, the “entity” that Satan is really
after is our Messiah who is the one we call “Son of David.” You
will notice that the letters in the name Satan are three Hebrew Letters:
Nun, Thet, Shin
King David’s name in 1st Chronicles 21:1 is rendered as the “Aleph & Tav” a
prophetic picture of Messiah (Alpha & Omega in Greek). So while
Satan stood up against Israel and he used David to number Israel, the
real person that Satan was standing up against was our Messiah (the
Aleph & Tav) as seen by the missing Hebrew word!
How Did Satan Successfully Change our Messiah’s Name?
The deceased Messianic Jewish Evangelist and historian Art Katz, cites
the orgins of the true name of the Messiah and the God of Israel from
his former website:
The original Hebrew or Jewish Name of the professing Jewish Messiah,
who was accepted as such by a certain section (some 3000 souls) of
Israel, at and after His Appearance in Israel, some 2000 years ago.
To them He was known as YAHU’SHUAH (abbreviated: Y’SHUAH,
also pronounced YEHOSHUA or YESHUA). In time, over the first few centuries
after Messiah, His Name was gradually changed to “Je-Zeus Khristos” by
the pagan masses who converted and joined the originally Jewish Messianic
Sect.
Out of this, Christianity was born, which was a mixture of originally
pure Judaism, and gradually, progressive influences of pagan customs
and traditions, together with a growing tide of an anti-Semitic spirit.
This was greatly due to the instigation of influential leaders like
Constantine the Great, who was a Zeus worshiper, and who purportedly
converted to Christianity. It was also a natural process as a result
of the infiltration of followers of the sun god, Zeus, into the Christian
ranks. Even the name of their pagan idol Zeus was applied to their
new-found Jewish Messiah - and Y'Shuah (the abbreviated transliteration
of YAHU'SHUAH), became “Y’Zeus” or Je-Zeus - which
became ‘Jesus’ in English (NOTE - the middle 's' is pronounced
as a 'z'). In other languages, it took on various other forms.
And so we can see why the Heavenly Father allowed our Messiah Yahu’shua
to take on the pagan name J’Zeus for a time, in order that he
might win the heathen nations to himself. Like Queen Esther, our Messiah
has a real Hebrew name. Esther’s true name was Hadassah. The
Heavenly Father has allowed our Messiah to be given a heathen name
for a season so that a later time in history, when “The fullness
of the Gentiles” is accomplished, all the nations who love J’Zeus
(Y’shua) would rise up to fast and pray for the House of Judah
(Jews) to be saved from their enemies.
The Traditions of Men Nullify the Word of Elohim (God)
We are taught over and over again that the traditions of men make
the word of our Father ineffective in our lives:
Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition,
which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
Mark 7:8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition
of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things
ye do.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and
vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the
world, and not after Messiah.
The Name of our Savior was weakened by the Masorites and then again
by the English translators by dropping letters from his name--- letters
that points toward His Father, in his birth name. The Christian communities
have gone along with this as it fits nicely alongside the accepted
bogus name "Jesus." Modern English Bibles preface at the
front of Bible translations you will find the excuse for why the translators
have decided not to use the Sacred Name of the God of Israel -- in
most cases they say they are following the "traditions of the
fathers", (the translators before them). Ultimately, this "tradition" comes
down to the Christian translators from the Jewish scribes. So, the
ground rule to recognize is: The translators in both camps (Christian & Jewish)
have decided not to use the true identity of the Creator of all the
things. In their folly, they have purged the Father's Name from that
of His Son. The Christians have done worse than the Jewish scribes
did by changing the name and the true identity of our Savior completely
to something else.
Jeremiah 2:11 Hath a nation changed their gods, which are yet no gods?
but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.
What is the Father’s Glory? It is the “Image” of
his Son, and so the glory of the Father (Yahushua) has been exchanged
for another “god” J’Zeus which means “Hail
Zeus” in Greek!
Yod = the “arm or hand of YHWH”
Notice that this letter resembles and arm, with an elbow and an open
hand.
This term “the arm of the Lord” or “the hand of
the Lord” is an idiom repeated over and over again in the Scriptures.
This phrase is a picture of strength and power, pointing to Yahu’shua
the Messiah. It was the arm of YHWH that conquered Pharaoh and his
army. And the psalmist declared, “You scattered Your enemies
with Your mighty arm” (Psalm 89:10). The arm of YHWH brings
deliverance and victory. Whenever you read about the hand or arm
of YHWH in the Bible, this is prophetically referring to person of
Yahu’shua. Our Heavenly Father has no image of his own for
he is invisible. He can only be seen through the “image of
the son” hence he has no “right arm” of his own,
but his “right arm” is Messiah’s right arm.
Our Messiah is seated at the “right hand of power” or “the
right hand of Elohim (God)” and this is a Hebrew idiom that
denotes power and strength.
Mark 14:62 And Yahushua said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man
sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Luke 22:69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of
the power of Elohim (God).
Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express
image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power,
when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand
of the Majesty on high:
1st Peter 3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of
Elohim (God); angels and authorities and powers being made subject
unto him.
Deuteronomy 26:8 And YHWH brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty
hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness,
and with signs, and with wonders:
Psalm 136:12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for
his mercy endureth for ever.
Jeremiah 32:17 Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and
the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing
too hard for thee:
Ezekiel 20:34 And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather
you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand,
and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.
Hey = the Breath or Inspiration of YHWH
This Hebrew Letter resembles a person lifting up his arms to praise
Yah and it also resembles the Messiah’s arms being stretched
out to save us as his hands were nailed to the tree.
Elohim (God) breathed into Adam “the breath of life” (Genesis
2:7) and we know that our Messiah is the Father (YHWH) who came as
the “last Adam” in the likeness of sinful man (1st Corinthians
15:45). The Hebrew letter “Hey” means “behold” or
to “look upon.”
#1887 he' hay a primitive particle; lo!:--behold, lo.
We can see that the Father’s image of the Son will be “looked
upon” in Zechariah 12:10 when the House of Judah will “behold
the lamb” who takes away the sin of the world!
Vav = the “nail”
Another letter in both YaHuWaH and YaHuW’shuA’s name
is the Vav. This letter resembles a hook and means “nail.” The
vav is also the 6th letter in the Hebrew alphabet, (the number of
man). Yahu’shua came as the Son of Man. He is YHWH in the flesh.
What does the vav teach us about Yahu’shua? Remember that Hebrew
letters are pictures and symbols. The connection in these letters
is apparent. Yahu’shua (the yod) came as the son of man (the
vav) to offer His life as a sacrifice. His hands (yod) were pierced
by a nail (vav) to bring salvation.
Yahu’shua was crucified through his hands and feet, as prophesied
in Psalm 22:16 – “The assembly of the wicked have enclosed
me. They have pierced my hands and my feet.” The letters in
Yahu’shua’s name foretell His death.
There is no other name given unto man for salvation. But why did
he have to die such a cruel death? This question is also answered
in His name.
Yahu’shua came to offer His life as the remedy to sin and death.
Shin = the tooth
The Lion of the Tribe of Judah has teeth that will gnash upon the
wicked at his return. He will rescue his sheep out of the mouth of
the impostor (Satan who comes like a roaring Lion). Messiah’s
teeth are likened unto a flock of his sheep because they feed upon
the nourishment of his word and chew upon the spiritual food that
brings nourishment to the soul.
Song of Solomon 4:2 Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even
shorn, which came up from the washing; whereof every one bear twins,
and none is barren among them.
Song of Solomon 6:6 Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up
from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not
one barren among them.
Isaiah 41:
14Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee,
saith YHWH, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
15Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having
teeth: thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and shalt
make the hills as chaff.
Here is a prophesy about the House of Jacob (the elect of YHWH) and
the men of Israel and though they may feel helpless like a “worm” against
their enemies, YHWH will come and redeem them through his son YaHuWShuA
and he will make them as an instrument that has teeth that they may
thresh the mountains (the impossible situations).
Ayin = the eye
Messiah teaches us with his Torah (instructions) and he guides his
sheep with his watchful eye:
Psalm 32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou
shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.
Psalm 33:18 Behold, the eye of YHWH is upon them that fear him, upon
them that hope in his mercy;
What is the “eye of YaHuWaH”? It is the Messiah’s
eye! Remember that YaHuWaH has no image of his own for he is invisible.
He can only be seen in the image of the son YaHuWShuA. Yahushua’s
body contains the “fullness” of the divinity of Yahuwah
(Colossians 2:9)
Revelation 1:14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white
as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
Revelation 2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write;
These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame
of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;
Revelation 19:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head
were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but
he himself.
When Messiah returns he will take vengeance on the enemies of his
elect:
Job 16:9 He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon
me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
As it was done to his beloved bride, so shall it be done to those
who persecuted her. Our Messiah is coming with teeth like a Lion and
eyes like a flame of fire to execute justices and avenge the blood
of his saints.
Whenever you read the term “salvation” in an English Bible,
it is almost certainly the name of the Messiah translated from the
Hebrew. His name is actually found all throughout the Older Testament.
#3444 yshuw`ah yesh-oo'-aw feminine passive participle of 3467; something
saved, i.e. (abstractly) deliverance; hence, aid, victory, prosperity:--deliverance,
health, help(-ing), salvation, save, saving (health), welfare.
You will notice that the Masorites added the vowel points to this
word “salvation” with the letter “e” but
the original Paleo letters were: YSHWA the same letters found in
YaHuWShuA only the extra letter “h” or the “hey” is
not in the word. Hence the word “salvation” is a shortened
way to say the Saviour’s name as “YaSHuWA” but
if it is rendered “YaHuWShuA” then it means “the
Father has saved.”
Exodus 14:13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still,
and see the (YaSHuWA) salvation 3444 of the YHWH, which he will shew
to you to day, for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall
see them again no more for ever.
Exodus 15:2 YHWH is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation
3444: (YaSHuWA) he is my Elohim (God), and I will prepare him an habitation;
my father's God, and I will exalt him.
When the Patriarch Jacob (Ya’acov in Hebrew) prayed in Genesis
49:18, he actually used the name of the coming Savior. He said, “I
have waited for thy salvation / Yah’shua.”
In Paleo below, we see the name as # 3068 (YHWH) and the name #3444
(YSHWA). To read it literally, it says “O YaHuWaH, I have waited
for your YaSHuWA.”
Jacob is crying out to the Father for the salvation that will come
through the Messiah!
#3068 Yhovah yeh-ho-vaw' from 1961; (the) self-Existent or Eternal;
Jehovah, Jewish national name of God:--Jehovah, the Lord. Compare
3050, 3069.
#3444 yshuw`ah yesh-oo'-aw feminine passive participle of 3467; something
saved, i.e. (abstractly) deliverance; hence, aid, victory, prosperity:--deliverance,
health, help(-ing), salvation, save, saving (health), welfare.
Jacob trusted in Yahu’shua even before Yahu’shua was
born into this world! In Psalm 62:6, David too proclaims his faith
in Yahu’shua, “He alone is my rock and my Y’shua
/ salvation, I will not be moved.” People living during Older
Testament times were redeemed by putting their faith in Yahu’shua.
The sacrificial system did not save anyone. In Hebrews 10:4 we read, “for
it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away
sins.”
Salvation has always been by grace through faith in the salvation
of the Almighty. His very name doesn’t just mean salvation, it
is salvation!
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation /Yahu’shua in any other:
for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby
we must be saved.
Call Upon the Name
Genesis 4:26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he
called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of YHWH.
Genesis 12:8 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east
of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai
on the east: and there he builded an altar unto YHWH, and called upon
the name of YHWH.
Genesis 26:25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the name
of YHWH, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac's servants digged
a well.
1st Chronicles 16:8 Give thanks unto YHWH, call upon his name, make
known his deeds among the people.
Psalm 79:6 Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known
thee, and upon the kingdoms that have NOT called upon thy name.
Psalm 80:18 So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will
call upon thy name.
Psalm 105:1 O give thanks unto YHWH; call upon his name: make known
his deeds among the people.
Psalm 116:4 Then called I upon the name of YHWH; O YHWH, I beseech
thee, deliver my soul.
Psalm 116:13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name
of YHWH.
Psalm 116:17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and
will call upon the name of YHWH.
In all of the above words that I cited, the Hebrew word for “call” is
as follows in the Strong's Hebrew Concordance:
#7121 qara' kaw-raw' a primitive root (rather identical with 7122
through the idea of accosting a person met); to call out to (i.e. properly,
address by name, but used in a wide variety of applications):--bewray
(self), that are bidden, call (for, forth, self, upon), cry (unto),
(be) famous, guest, invite, mention, (give) name, preach, (make) proclaim(-
ation), pronounce, publish, read, renowned, say.
Notice, that to “call” upon his name means to preach,
pronounce, and publish his name!
