Frequently, I hear people making the declaration that it is impossible for us to know for certain how to pronounce the name of our Creator. But we see many instances in Scripture where YaHuWaH promises to reveal his name to those who truly want to know:
Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 52:6 Therefore My people shall know My name: Therefore they shall know in that day That I am He who speaks: ‘Behold, it is I.’”
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 16:21 Therefore behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know My hand and My might; And they shall know that My name is YaHuWaH.
In these last days, as we approach the second coming of Messiah, Yahuwshuwa (who many know as Jesus), are beginning to experience an unprecedented revival of the days of the prophet Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah).
Jeremiah was a prophet and a priest from the Tribe of Lewiy (Levi), and he was greatly persecuted because he warned the Kingdom of Yahuwdah (Judah) about their soon coming destruction. Because of this, he was placed into a dungeon for many days (Jeremiah 37:16).
When Jeremiah was placed into the dungeon, the word of YaHuWaH was suppressed from the people, and they could not learn the way of salvation. Similarly, the name of our Heavenly Father has been suppressed from us for many years.
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 23:
In the days of Jeremiah the prophet, he pleaded with the House of Yahuwdah (Judah) to take the ancient path of the Towrah (Mosaic Law), which is the way that leads to life and rest for the soul. But many of them refused to walk in the ancient paths, just as there are many people today who resist. They are content to remain stagnant in the modern way. But in these last days, many are beginning to rediscover the ancient paths which brings rest to the soul:
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 6:16 Thus says YHWH, Stand you in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and you shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 23:
25 I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my NAME, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yes, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
27 Which think to CAUSE MY PEOPLE to FORGET MY NAME by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers HAVE FORGOTTEN MY NAME FOR BAAL.
The scribes who copied the Hebrew & Greek manuscripts of the original Scriptures HAVE CAUSED YAHUWAH’S PEOPLE TO FORGET HIS NAME FOR BAAL OR LORD!
Did you know that nearly 7,000 times in the TaNaKh (Old Testament), the REPLACEMENT NAME for YaHuWaH is “ADONAI” or “LORD” in all capital letters?
The scribes removed and added to the words of YaHuWaH which is strictly forbidden:
Mishley (Proverbs) 30:6 Add you not unto his words, lest he reprove you, and you be found a liar.
Every time you see “LORD” in the TaNaKh (Old Testament) you should know that it actually says “Yod, Hey, Waw, Hey” pronounced as “YaHuWaH!”
What does “Baal” mean?
In the Brown’s Driver Briggs Hebrew Lexicon #1168: Baal = Lord!
In the days of Jeremiah the prophet, he pleaded with the House of Yahuwdah (Judah) to take the ancient path of the Towrah (Mosaic Law), which is the way that leads to life and rest for the soul. But many of them refused to walk in the ancient paths, just as there are many people today who resist. They are content to remain stagnant in the modern way. But in these last days, many are beginning to rediscover the ancient paths which brings rest to the soul:
Mattithyahuw (Matthew) 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls.
In both of these passages above, Jeremiah and our Messiah revealed what is needed for us to find rest for our souls. The “old paths” spoken of by Jeremiah is this Hebrew word:
#5769. `owlam from 5956; properly, concealed, i.e. the vanishing point; generally, time out of mind (past or future), i.e. (practically) eternity; frequentatively, adverbial (especially with prepositional prefix) always:--alway(-s), ancient (time), any more, continuance, eternal, everlasting, lasting, long (time), (of) old (time), perpetual, at any time, (beginning of the) world (+ without end).
The word “frequentatively” is defined in the dictionary as “denoting repeated or recurrent action or state.” This is clearly telling us that the “ancient path” is the path of life which is “eternal, everlasting,” and it is cyclical, repetitive and never-ending! In Matthew 11:29, the Greek word for “yoke” is a metaphor of the Towrah (Mosaic Law) as we can see by the Greek word used in Matthew 11:29:
#2218. zugos from the root of zeugnumi (to join, especially by a “yoke”); a coupling, i.e. (figuratively) servitude (a law or obligation); also (literally) the beam of the balance (as connecting the scales):--pair of balances, yoke; laws imposed on one, especially of the Mosaic law, hence the name is so transferred to the commands of Christ as to contrast them with the commands of the Pharisees which were a veritable ‘yoke’; yet even Christ’s commands must be submitted to, though easier to be kept.
The Vain Pen of the Scribes
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 8:9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of YHWH; and what wisdom is in them?
The same word used in Jeremiah 8:8 for “vain” in Hebrew is “shau” (shav) and is also used in the second commandment:
Shemoth (Exodus) 20:7 You shall not take the name of YHWH your Elohiym in vain; for YHWH will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
#7723. shav’ shawv or shav {shav}; from the same as 7722 in the sense of desolating; evil (as destructive), literally (ruin) or morally (especially guile); figuratively idolatry (as false, subjective), uselessness (as deceptive, objective; also adverbially, in vain):--false(-ly), lie, lying, vain, vanity; emptiness, falsehood; nothingness, emptiness of speech, worthlessness (of conduct).
We are commanded not to take the name of YaHuWaH “in vain,” and this means that we are not to lie about his name, change the spelling of his name, nor remove it from the scriptures! It means that the scribes deliberately removed his name from the Bible, thereby making it empty, meaningless, and worthless.
The Greek Gnostic scribes changed the name of our Messiah from “Yahuwshuwa” (Joshua) to “IHSous,” which comes from the Ancient Mystery Religion of Nimrod and his mother/wife Semiramis. After Nimrod died, Semiramis gave birth to a son on December 25th and she named him “Tammuz” (Ezekiel 8:14). She claimed that Nimrod had impregnated her with the rays of the sun (symbolized by the sun-burst on the image to the right).
This same story of Nimrod, Semiramis & Tammuz migrated to Egypt after the languages were confused at the Tower of Babel and they were renamed as: Isis, Horus & Set, which is the Ancient Pagan Trinity!
Pictured above are the letters “I H S” on a giant sunburst for the pagan sun-god. The Jesuits in the Vatican secretly worship the fallen angel “Lucifer,” whom they also call “IHSous,” or “Jesus!” In the occult world, anagrams are used to disguise the name of Satan to unsuspecting church people in order to invoke worship for Lucifer or Satan. The three Semitic letters to the name of “SaTaN” are: Shin, Taw, Nun. Hence, the first letter in the names of: Semiramis, Tammuz & Nimrod are a code word for SaTaN!
In the 3rd Century, the Roman Emperor Constantine took a vote from council members to create a new name for the Messiah of the Bible in order to go along with his new hybrid religion called “Roman Catholicism.” This name officially became “Hesus Krishna.” Later on in the 1500’s the English invented a new letter “J” and thus the name of our Messiah was changed to “Jesus Christ.” To see more documentation for this, see my other article entitled “Does the Name ‘Jesus’ Mean Hail Zeus?”
The Jewish Scribes also saw this, and they decided that it would be better to hide the name of YaHuWaH altogether from the Gentiles, so that they could not blaspheme his name. While it is understandable that these Jewish Scribes felt it was their responsibility to protect the true name of YaHuWaH by hiding it, misspelling it and removing it altogether from the English Manuscripts, they were just as guilty as the Greek Gnostic Scribes of taking the name of YaHuWaH in vain!
Jeremiah warned us about these Lying Prophets:
As I previously mentioned, Jeremiah urged the House of Judah to return to the “old paths” wherein is found rest for the soul. The Hebrew word for “old” in Jeremiah 6:16 is “owlam” and it means “The eternal or everlasting way.” Hence the “shem owlam” literally means “This is my name forever!” In Exodus 3:15, YaHuWaH revealed his name to Mosheh (Moses) and he said to him “This is my shem owlam!” In other words, this has always been his name in eternity. We are now being called back to the eternal covenant with the eternal one who has an eternal name!
This teaching was written in response to those who would argue that “Nobody really knows for sure how to pronounce the sacred name of our Creator....” There are those who would argue that since YaHuWaH confounded the languages at the Tower of Babel, the languages of the Gentiles is good enough and there is no need to be restored back to the Hebrew Language. In this study, I am going to illustrate why YaHuWaH is now restoring the people of the earth back to the one pure language of Ancient Paleo Hebrew.
The Vain Pen of the Scribes
When our Messiah was here during his earthly ministry, he rebuked the religious leaders of his day because they were preventing people from entering into heaven. One of the primary ways that they did this was to hide the true name of salvation from the manuscripts:
Mattithyahuw (Matthew) 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for you neither go in yourselves, neither suffer you them that are entering to go in.
But now the Gentiles are being awakened by the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit) in these last days. In spite of the efforts of these scribes to lie about his name by hiding it and purposely misspelling it in the scriptures, the prophets are coming out of their dungeons and the awakening has now begun. Listen to the words of the prophet Jeremiah:
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 16:
19 O YHWH, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto you from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
20 Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no gods?
21 Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is YHWH.
*Note: Did you see this? We are in these days right now when the Gentiles are beginning to wake up to the lies that they have inherited and they are beginning to know that his name is YaHuWaH!
But why have the Gentiles not known his name up until this point? It is because of “The lying pen of the scribes” that the name of YaHuWaH had been removed 7,000 times from the scriptures and replaced with a vain title which is “LORD!”
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 8:8 How do you say, We are wise, and the Towrah (law) of YHWH is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 8:9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of YHWH; and what wisdom is in them?
The same word used in Jeremiah 8:8 for “vain” in Hebrew is “shau” (shav) and is also used in the second commandment:
Shemoth (Exodus) 20:7 You shall not take the name of YHWH your Elohiym in vain; for YHWH will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
#7723. shav’ shawv or shav {shav}; from the same as 7722 in the sense of desolating; evil (as destructive), literally (ruin) or morally (especially guile); figuratively idolatry (as false, subjective), uselessness (as deceptive, objective; also adverbially, in vain):--false(-ly), lie, lying, vain, vanity; emptiness, falsehood; nothingness, emptiness of speech, worthlessness (of conduct).
We are commanded not to take the name of YaHuWaH “in vain,” and this means that we are not to lie about his name, change the spelling of his name, nor remove it from the scriptures! It means that the scribes deliberately removed his name from the Bible, thereby making it empty, meaningless, and worthless.
The Greek Gnostic scribes changed the name of our Messiah from “Yahuwshuwa” (Joshua) to “IHSous,” which comes from the Ancient Mystery Religion of Nimrod and his mother/wife Semiramis. After Nimrod died, Semiramis gave birth to a son on December 25th and she named him “Tammuz” (Ezekiel 8:14). She claimed that Nimrod had impregnated her with the rays of the sun (symbolized by the sun-burst on the image to the right).
This same story of Nimrod, Semiramis & Tammuz migrated to Egypt after the languages were confused at the Tower of Babel and they were renamed as: Isis, Horus & Set, which is the Ancient Pagan Trinity!
Pictured above are the letters “I H S” on a giant sunburst for the pagan sun-god. The Jesuits in the Vatican secretly worship the fallen angel “Lucifer,” whom they also call “IHSous,” or “Jesus!” In the occult world, anagrams are used to disguise the name of Satan to unsuspecting church people in order to invoke worship for Lucifer or Satan. The three Semitic letters to the name of “SaTaN” are: Shin, Taw, Nun. Hence, the first letter in the names of: Semiramis, Tammuz & Nimrod are a code word for SaTaN!
The true identity of the Messiah of Yisra’el was dramatically changed by the Roman Emperor Constantine in the 3rd Century, as he attempted to assimilate our Savior to Isis, Horus & Set. The Roman Catholic Jesuits tell unsuspecting Catholics that these three letters on their Eucharist Communion Wafer stand for “Jesus,” but they have no idea that these letters actually stand for Satan!
In order to hide the anagram of “I H S,” a new acronym was created to stand for these three letters: “Iesus Hominum Salvator” or “Jesus, Savior of men” in Latin. In reality, these three letters “I H S” come from the capitalized name of “IHSOUS” (Jesus) in Greek: “ΙΗΣΟΥΣ.” The first three letters of this word are: Iota, Eta, Sigma. The order of the Jesuit Catholic Priests, aka the “Illuminati” use these three letters to signify something else: “In Hoc Signo” which means “In this sign you shall conquer.”
These were the very same words that the Roman Emperor Constantine claimed to have heard when he had a vision in the sky of the Egyptian Ankh. What does the Ankh represent? The Ankh is a symbol of the Letter “T” for “Tammuz” and the upside down “egg” on top symbolizes “Semiramis” or the “goddess of fertility!” In Revelation 6:2 we are told that the false Messiah (the rider on the white horse) “goes forth conquering and to conquer.” In other words, Satan has used Roman Catholicism to “conquer the world” for the religion of the Antichrist!
In the 3rd Century, the Roman Emperor Constantine took a vote from council members to create a new name for the Messiah of the Bible in order to go along with his new hybrid religion called “Roman Catholicism.” This name officially became “Hesus Krishna.” Later on in the 1500’s the English invented a new letter “J” and thus the name of our Messiah was changed to “Jesus Christ.” To see more documentation for this, see my other article entitled “Does the Name ‘Jesus’ Mean Hail Zeus?”
Those who sat as council members of Constantine are deemed today as “Early church fathers,” but should we call them our fathers, when they clearly were into mixing mythology with the biblical narrative? These so-called fathers were deeply indoctrinated by something called “Gnosticism.”
Gnosticism purports that our Messiah was nothing more than a reincarnation of all the other pagan sun-gods born on December 25th at the winter solstice. In order to blend the true Messiah with all pagan religions of the world, Constantine had to assign a new name to our Messiah, and thus he caused the people of the earth to forget the true name of our Heavenly Father, and our Messiah.
The Jewish Scribes also saw this, and they decided that it would be better to hide the name of YaHuWaH altogether from the Gentiles, so that they could not blaspheme his name. While it is understandable that these Jewish Scribes felt it was their responsibility to protect the true name of YaHuWaH by hiding it, misspelling it and removing it altogether from the English Manuscripts, they were just as guilty as the Greek Gnostic Scribes of taking the name of YaHuWaH in vain!
Jeremiah warned us about these Lying Prophets:
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 23:26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 23:27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
After the House of Yahuwdah (Judah) came out of Babylonian Captivity, they created a “ban” on the Heavenly Father’s name, and it became punishable by death for any Gentile to speak the sacred name of YaHuWaH! To this day, the Jewish Talmud states the following:
“Gentiles May Not Be Taught the Torah. Inasmuch as the Jews had their own distinct jurisdiction, it would have been unwise to reveal their laws to the Gentiles, for such knowledge might have operated against the Jews in their opponents’ courts. Hence, the Talmud prohibited the teaching to a Gentile of the Torah, the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob (Deuteronomy 33:4).”
R. Johanan says of one such teaching: “Such a person deserves death” (an idiom used to express indignation). “It is like placing an obstacle before the blind” (Sanhedrin. 59a; ‘ag. 13a).
“A Gentile observing the Sabbath deserves death” (Sanhedrin 58b)...….All Gentiles found keeping the 7th day Sabbath shall be found guilty of breaking the Noahide Law and must be punished to the fullest… Decapitation….No gentile shall be permitted to speak (Ha’shem) the name of YHWH, all who have blasphemy and are found guilty of breaking the Noahide Law and shall be punished to the fullest... Decapitation.”
But, beloved this is completely against the scriptures as we are commanded to “Call upon the name of YaHuWaH” for salvation (Joel 2:32, Romans 10:13).These Talmudic Laws are not actually from the prophet Noah in the Bible. This is purely a man-made tradition meant to keep the people suppressed from the truth. Noah never spoke such laws in the scriptures.
The Ancient Path to the “Shem Owlam” (Concealed Eternal Name) of YaHuWaH
The Ancient Path to the “Shem Owlam” (Concealed Eternal Name) of YaHuWaH
As I previously mentioned, Jeremiah urged the House of Judah to return to the “old paths” wherein is found rest for the soul. The Hebrew word for “old” in Jeremiah 6:16 is “owlam” and it means “The eternal or everlasting way.” Hence the “shem owlam” literally means “This is my name forever!” In Exodus 3:15, YaHuWaH revealed his name to Mosheh (Moses) and he said to him “This is my shem owlam!” In other words, this has always been his name in eternity. We are now being called back to the eternal covenant with the eternal one who has an eternal name!
This teaching was written in response to those who would argue that “Nobody really knows for sure how to pronounce the sacred name of our Creator....” There are those who would argue that since YaHuWaH confounded the languages at the Tower of Babel, the languages of the Gentiles is good enough and there is no need to be restored back to the Hebrew Language. In this study, I am going to illustrate why YaHuWaH is now restoring the people of the earth back to the one pure language of Ancient Paleo Hebrew.
Today we are living in the most exciting era of end-time prophecy that the world has ever known. We are living in the last days when the prophet Zephaniah foretold that our Creator would restore to the people of the earth a “pure language.” But for what purpose? Why does he intend to restore the people of the earth back to one pure language? And what exactly is this pure language? The answer is found in the following passages of scripture:
Tzephanyahuw (Zephaniah) 3:
8 Therefore wait you upon me, says YHWH, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them my indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of YHWH, to serve him with one consent.
9 For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of YHWH, to serve him with one consent.
As we can see from the prophecy above, the primary purpose for YaHuWaH, our Creator to restore the people to a pure language is so that THEY MAY ALL CALL UPON THE NAME OF YAHUWAH TO SERVE HIM WITH ONE CONSENT! Before the people of the earth became corrupted under Nimrod at the Tower of Babel, men began to call upon the name of YaHuWaH:
Bereshiyth (Genesis) 4:26 And to Sheth (Seth), to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enowsh (Enos): then began men to call upon the name of YHWH.
But as time went on, they forgot YaHuWaH and they began to serve Nimrod and his lawless ways. But how can we be sure of what the original pure language was? Well we get a clue by going back to the time when the whole earth was one language:
Bereshiyth (Genesis) 4:26 And to Sheth (Seth), to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enowsh (Enos): then began men to call upon the name of YHWH.
But as time went on, they forgot YaHuWaH and they began to serve Nimrod and his lawless ways. But how can we be sure of what the original pure language was? Well we get a clue by going back to the time when the whole earth was one language:
1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
6 And YHWH said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
In these passages, the word for “confound” in the Hebrew Concordance is #H1101 “balal” and it means “to mix, mingle confuse.” This word also comes from the following word:
#1100. bliya`al bel-e-yah’-al from 1097 and 3276; without profit, worthlessness; by extension, destruction, wickedness (often in connection with belial, evil, naughty, ungodly (men), wicked.
The Apostle Sha’uwl used this very same word when rebuking the Corinthians for their unclean mixture of worldliness:
2nd Qorintiym (Corinthians) 6: 15 And what concord has Mashiyach (Messiah) with Belial? or what part has he that believes with an infidel [unbeliever]?
Therefore, we should be able to understand by now that the confusing languages of the nations were not meant to be permanent. In Genesis 11, the word “language” is the following Hebrew word:
#8193. saphah saw-faw’ or (in dual and plural) sepheth {sef-eth’}; probably from 5595 or 8192 through the idea of termination (Compare 5490); the lip (as a natural boundary); by implication, language; by analogy, a margin (of a vessel, water, cloth, etc.):--band, bank, binding, border, brim, brink, edge, language, lip, prating, sea-shore, side, speech, talk, (vain) words.
This is a very peculiar word, because while it means “language” it also means “border, brim, edge.”
It also means “termination,” because the original one pure language that was spoken throughout the earth was being terminated at that time. It was only spoken by the Hebrews, but not by the Gentiles. However, in these last days, the curse is being reversed, as we are being restored back to the Pre-Tower of Babel language! What is the correlation between languages and “border or edge?” The answer can be found in this prophecy:
Zecharyahuw (Zechariah) 8:
22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek YHWH of hosts in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem), and to pray before YHWH.
23 Thus says YHWH of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt [kanaph #H3671] of him that is a Yahuwdiy (Jew), saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that Elohiym is with you.
This prophecy in Zechariah is telling us that “ten men” shall take hold out of all languages of the Gentile nations, and they shall take hold of the “skirt” of him that is a Yahuwdiy (Jew). This means that in the last days, the Gentiles will begin to obey the Towrah (Mosaic Law). But what is interesting, is that this word for “ten” is not limited to the number 10, but it is a word that can mean “multiples of ten.” Let’s take a look at this word in Hebrew:
#6235. `eser eh’ser masculine of term aasarah {as-aw-raw’}; from 6237; ten (as an accumulation to the extent of the digits): with other numbers.
This means that there will be tens of thousands of Gentiles who will begin to obey the Towrah in the last days. But the word “skirt” in Zechariah 8:23 is the Hebrew word “kanaph” which means the following:
In the Hebrew Strong’s Concordance: #H3671. kanaph: wing, extremity, edge, winged, border, corner of the garment.
Aha! If the Hebrew word for “language” (saphah) also means “border, edge, brim” and the word for “skirt” (kanaph) also means “edge, winged, border, corner of the garment” then there has to be a correlation between the corner of the garment and the one pure language. What could that correlation be?
The Four Corners of the Earth Knit Together as One
In Leviticus 23:22, YaHuWaH commanded Yisra’el not to harvest the “four corners” of their field, but to save the crops for the “poor and the stranger.” This is because YaHuWaH sees the earth as his harvest field so when he speaks of “four corners of the earth” (Isaiah 11:12, Revelation 7:1), he is speaking about the harvest of souls from the Gentile nations. In the last days, the “four angels from the four winds of heaven” will gather the elect from the “four corners of the earth” (Matthew 24:21, Revelation 7:1).
This means that there will be tens of thousands of Gentiles who will begin to obey the Towrah in the last days. But the word “skirt” in Zechariah 8:23 is the Hebrew word “kanaph” which means the following:
In the Hebrew Strong’s Concordance:
Aha! If the Hebrew word for “language” (saphah) also means “border, edge, brim” and the word for “skirt” (kanaph) also means “edge, winged, border, corner of the garment” then there has to be a correlation between the corner of the garment and the one pure language. What could that correlation be?
The Four Corners of the Earth Knit Together as One
In Leviticus 23:22, YaHuWaH commanded Yisra’el not to harvest the “four corners” of their field, but to save the crops for the “poor and the stranger.” This is because YaHuWaH sees the earth as his harvest field so when he speaks of “four corners of the earth” (Isaiah 11:12, Revelation 7:1), he is speaking about the harvest of souls from the Gentile nations. In the last days, the “four angels from the four winds of heaven” will gather the elect from the “four corners of the earth” (Matthew 24:21, Revelation 7:1).
In the 10th chapter of Acts, Peter (Keefa) was shown in a vision, a great sheet “knit at the four corners” with both clean and unclean animals in it. This is reminiscent of Noah’s Ark, when he was commanded to “gather seven of each kind” of the clean animals and only “two of each kind” of the unclean animals (Genesis 6:19-7:3). The unclean animals signify the “Two Houses of Yisra’el” who were scattered to the Gentile nations and they became “unclean” because they departed from keeping the Towrah at different times in history (Jeremiah 3:8).
But the clean animals symbolize the “seven congregations” in the book of Revelation who are now “clean through the word” of Messiah (John 15:3). In other words, these Gentiles from the “seven continents of the world” are now being gathered to the “Yahuwdiym” (Jewish) Messiah and they are now beginning to obey his Towrah! Both the clean and the unclean went into the ark of salvation through only “one door” which is Messiah (John 10:7-9).
Peter’s vision on the rooftop therefore has to do with the end-time harvest of souls, and it had nothing what-so-ever to do with being allowed to eat unclean animals! A prayer shawl is called a “tallit” in Hebrew. But in English, it has been translated as a “tent” or a “skene” in Greek. Sometimes it is also called a “sukkah” in Hebrew. In Acts 18:3 we read that Sha’uwl (Paul) was a “tentmaker.” But what he actually made were “portable prayer tents” called prayer shawls (skene).
On the four corners of these prayer shawls we are commanded to place on them “fringes” to remind us that we are to obey the commandments (Deuteronomy 22:12, Numbers 15:38).
These “fringes” in Hebrew, are called “tziytzit,” and they are to have a blue ribbon going through them.
Why blue? In Exodus 24:10 the Towrah (Mosaic Law) was given to Mosheh (Moses) and the seventy elders when they saw the Elohiym of Yisra’el and under his feet was a “paved work of sapphire stone.”
In Zechariah 8:23, the Hebrew word for “skirt” is #H3671 in the Strong’s Concordance: “kanaph” and it means: wing, extremity, edge, winged, border, corner of the garment, and this is where the fringes or the “tziytzit” are placed, on the four corners of the garment. In Malachi 4:2, another prophecy about our Messiah is told as one who comes with “healing in his wings:”
Malakiy (Malachi) 4:2 “But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings…”
The Hebrew word in this passage for “wings” is once again #H3671 which is “kanaph” and this is the same word used in Zechariah 8:23 for skirt!
The woman with “The issue of blood” in Matthew 9:20 was also a symbol of the nation of Yisra’el who had been “exiled” (sent away, and divorced) to the nations because of their uncleanness (Deuteronomy 24:1).
This woman had an issue of blood for “twelve years” which is symbolic of the “twelve tribes” of Yisra’el, and this made her unclean, so she had to remain outside of the camp and quarantined. But when this woman “touched the hem” of Messiah’s garment she was made clean!
The Greek word for “hem” in Matthew 9:20 is as follows:
#2899 kraspedona: tassel, tuft; the extremity or prominent part of a thing, edge, skirt, margin; the fringe of a garment; the Jews had such appendages attached to their mantles to remind them of the law.
The big sheet that came down in Keefa’s (Peter’s) vision was “knit at the four corners.” This has to do with the harvest field---the four corners of the earth! The fact that it was knit at four corners speaks of the Gentiles gathering together by taking the “wing, or corner of the garment,” or the “tziytzit” of a Yahuwdiy (Jew) just like in Zechariah’s prophecy!
#2899 kraspedona: tassel, tuft; the extremity or prominent part of a thing, edge, skirt, margin; the fringe of a garment; the Jews had such appendages attached to their mantles to remind them of the law.

The prayer shawl is deliberately made in the shape of a rectangle to resemble the harvest field. YaHuWaH commands us not to harvest the “four corners” of our harvest field but we are commanded to save it for the “stranger and for the poor.”
In Exodus 24:7-12 Mosheh read the book of the covenant to the people of Yisra’el (the marriage vows) and they accepted the terms and conditions of the covenant which are the instructions (Towrah). This is when YaHuWaH revealed himself on a sapphire pavement and then he beckoned Mosheh to come up to the mountain to receive the written marriage covenant.
The blue thread in the tziytzit are meant to be an outward sign of our covenant with YaHuWaH. It is like wearing our engagement ring!
You may be wondering, why it seems as if I have taken a detour, by teaching about the sapphire blue color of the pavement, and the stone tablets given to Moses with the ten commandments engraved in them. The reason why I am explaining all of this, is because the “tziytzit,” (the fringes) are deliberately made to remind us of the four letters in the Tetragrammaton, or the name of YaHuWaH (Yod-Hey-Waw-Hey).
This website explains some of the symbolism on the Tallit (prayer shawl) with the four fringes on the corners: Healing In His Wings: What are TzitTzit?
“The tzitzit consists of a specific set of knots and threads. Each one of these is symbolic:
5 Knots – The first 5 books of the Bible (Torah).
4 Spaces – The Name of Elohiym (YHWH).
The value of the word “tzitzit” is 600. If you combine that value (600), with the 5 knots, made from the 8 threads of the tzitzit, you come to the number 613. This is the most important number in the entire Hebrew world. There are 613 commandments in the Torah. So, the purpose of the tzitzit is to remind Israel that they are to honor the commandments of Elohiym, and the very numerical value of the word “tzitzit” equals 613 – the number of commandments they are to obey.
It’s also very important to understand where the tzitzit are attached. The Hebrew word for corner is “kanaph.” This word is used in various other ways throughout Scripture, as we will soon see.
David was anointed as the future king of Yisrael, after Saul ignored Yah’s specific commandment regarding the Amalekites. After that, Saul became increasingly more angry and paranoid. This resulted in his seeking to kill the one man who most clearly understood the unique anointing of Yah that the king had – David. While Saul was pursuing David, he entered a cave in the oasis of Ein Gedi.
Unbeknownst to him, David and his followers were also hiding in the cave. David’s men tried to encourage him to kill Saul, and be done with the whole problem. But David understood that this would be using his own power and strength to deal with his trials, rather than allowing Elohiym to take care of it. Instead, he snuck up to Saul and cut of the corner (kanaph) of his robe, removing the tzitzit from Saul. In doing this, he was declaring for all to see that Saul was not honoring the commandments of YaHuWaH!”

My Dream about the Tekhelet & the Tziytziyt.
This explains why in Zechariah 8:23 ten men (symbolic of the ten lost tribes), from out of the heathen nations will grab the “kanaph” (corner of the garment) of a Yahuwdiy (Jew). This means that the “Ten Northern Tribes” of Yisra’el (the lost sheep of Ephrayim) will begin to join themselves again with the Yahuwdiy (Jews) in the last days in obedience to the marriage covenant!
Keefa (Peter) was being shown this prophetic dream where the Gentiles (represented as unclean animals) were being “gathered” in a large “sheet” (wedding canopy, chuppah, tent or prayer shawl) and they are being gathered at the four corners. Now listen to how similar this sounds to our Messiah’s words in this prophecy:
Mattithyahuw (Matthew) 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
You see Keefa’s (Peter’s) vision had nothing to do with eating pork or unclean animals! His vision was about gathering the Gentiles into the same covenant with the House of Yahuwdah (Judah) at the “four corners” of the earth! What is even more interesting is that in Ezekiel 37:16, when YaHuWaH brings together “The stick of Judah & Ephrayim” in the last days, there are Gentiles who are joined to them who are called “companions.”
The Hebrew word for “companions” is #H2270 “chaber” which means “knit together!”
Peter was being shown in Acts 10:11 that the Gentiles (represented by the unclean animals) from the “four corners” of the earth were going to be gathered into the sheet.
That Greek word for “sheet” is #G3607 “othone” which means “a linen cloth.” The bride of Messiah in Revelation 19:8 will be arrayed in “fine linen white and clean” at the marriage supper of the lamb. This vision that Keefa (Peter) had was illustrating that the great sheet would be “knit at the four corners” into one big house or family (tent or prayer shawl), when “ten men from the nations” (representing the ten lost tribes) will grab the “kanaph” (corner of the garment, or the tziytzit) of a Yahuwdiy (Jew)!

Bemidbar (Numbers) 15:
37 And YHWH spoke unto Mosheh, saying,
38 Speak unto the children of Yisra’el, and bid them that they make them fringes [tziytzit #6734] in the borders [kanaph #3671] of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe [tziytzit #6734] of the borders [kanaph #3671] a ribband of blue [#8504 tekeleth].
39 And it shall be unto you for a fringe [tziytzit #6734], that you may look upon it, and REMEMBER ותא [Aleph, Taw, Waw] all the commandments of YHWH, and do them ; and that you seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you use to go a whoring.
*Note: you will notice that right next the word “remember” are three Hebrew Letters from right to left: Aleph, Taw, Waw, which are symbolic of “The red heifer, the cross and the nail!”
These three letters are unrepresented in English, but they symbolize our Messiah. This prophecy is therefore telling us that the “tziytit” are a symbol of our Messiah, and when we look upon them, they testify of him and they remind us to never forget his holy name, nor forget his commandments!
The Hebrew word for “blue” in the above verse is as follows:

The Hebrew word for “blue” in the above verse is as follows:
#8504. tekeleth tek-ay’-leth probably for 7827; the cerulean mussel, i.e. the color (violet) obtained there from or stuff dyed there with:--blue.
Some people argue that this cerulean mussel is an unclean creature, and that it does not make sense that the dye used to make the tziytzit comes from something that is unclean. However, the prohibition against eating unclean animals in Leviticus 11 does not include using it to make “dye.”
Some people argue that this cerulean mussel is an unclean creature, and that it does not make sense that the dye used to make the tziytzit comes from something that is unclean. However, the prohibition against eating unclean animals in Leviticus 11 does not include using it to make “dye.”
It simply says that it is an abomination to eat these unclean creatures. It does indeed make sense that the dye would be made from something “unclean” since YaHuWaH told Noah & Peter to gather both the unclean (symbolic of the Gentiles) and the clean (symbolic of the House of Judah). And together, they shall both be made “clean” by the Towrah and the spoken word of our Messiah.
Even the gates in the New Jerusalem are made of pearl which comes from an oyster.
Even the gates in the New Jerusalem are made of pearl which comes from an oyster.
Oysters are considered “unclean” to eat, but our Messiah compared “pearls” to wisdom (Matthew 13:46; Revelation 21:21; Job 28:18). Eating is symbolic of taking into our minds the false pagan teachings of the Gentiles. This is why we are commanded not to “eat” things unclean. However, using these unclean animals for other purposes other than “eating” means that YaHuWaH has created the Gentiles for his purposes and in his wisdom, he uses them to provoke Yisra’el to jealousy (Romans 10:19; 11:11).
This “tekeleth” snail has been extinct for the past 2,000 years until the year that the Modern State of Israel became a nation in 1948, and then suddenly these snails began to appear again on the seashore of the Mediterranean Sea!
These unclean shell-fish since 1948 are now reappearing on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea around the area of Israel as a sign that we are now in what is called “The fullness of the Gentiles” (Romans 11:25). Do you remember the promise given to Abraham about his descendants being more numerous than the “sands on the seashore?” (Genesis 22:17; 32:12). These unclean creatures symbolize the Gentiles who are now coming into obedience to Towrah by grabbing hold of the “tziytzit” of Messiah!

Tekhelet is a blue dye, and is mentioned forty-eight times in the Old Testament.
Blue is the traditional color for The Messiah. Uses of this dye included dying the middle garment of the Jewish High Priest and, importantly, the blue thread in the tziytzit.
The tziytzit is the fringed corner of the tallit, the Jewish prayer shawl. Tziytzit (fringe, tassel) was required to be placed on each of the four corners of the shawl, and a blue thread was commanded to be incorporated into each tassel (Numbers 15:38-39).
After the destruction of the Second Temple and the city of Jerusalem in A.D. 70, tekhelet (blue dye) could not be produced. Jews wore tassels of white or white with a black thread throughout the Diaspora.
It is believed that the dye came from a Mediterranean Sea snail (mollusk). Although opinions differ, most scholars believe this mollusk is Murex trunculus (more recently renamed, Hexaplex trunculus). This snail was thought to be extinct, until it began washing ashore in Israel a few years ago. The blue dye can now be extracted from the shell.
Interestingly, the blue color appears only when the dyed wool is exposed to sunlight. This is obviously symbolic of Yahuwshuwa “I am the Light of the world” (John 8:12).
*Note by Maria Merola: could it be that the dye only appears blue when exposed to sunlight because Yahuwshuwa is called “The Sun of Righteousness with healing in his wings?” (Malachi 4:2).
The State of Israel now has the precious blue dye necessary to welcome the Messiah with his color! The middle garment of the High Priest’s garment and the blue thread of the tziytzit can now be authentically dyed!
Now we should be able to figure out what the original language was before the Tower of Babel, by following these prophecies. First of all in Genesis 10:10, we learn that Nimrod was the ruler of “ten provinces” in the land of Shinar. These eventually become the “ten horns” or nations of the end-time beast of Revelation 13.

If “ten men” are symbolic of the Ten Northern Tribes of Ephrayim who were scattered to the heathen nations, and they are still speaking in these unclean languages, what language are they going to be restored to? In these last days, the Gentiles are following the House of Yahuwdah (Judah) and the House of Yahuwdah speaks what language? Hebrew!
It is now obvious that there is a clear correlation between the blue thread (which is symbolic of the Towrah) in the fringes (tziytzit) on the corners of the garment, and the one pure language we are being restored back to. Therefore, we must ask ourselves “What language was the Towrah given to Moses in?” If the language of the Towrah is Ancient Hebrew, and the blue fringes are symbolic of the Towrah, then we have our answer!
If the word “saphah” (language) means “edge, border, brim,” and the word “kanaph” (skirt) also means “edge, border, corner of the garment,” then we have to conclude that the “ten men” (symbolic of the Gentiles) are going to grab hold of the “tziytzit” (on the corner of the garment) and that means that they will learn to speak the language of the Towrah which is Ancient Hebrew!
In this study, I am going to give clear proof from scripture of our Creator’s name which is: YaHuWaH.
Some people have tried to suggest that since the name of YaHuWaH is not spelled out for us in our English Bibles, that this is evidence that our Creator is not very concerned about how we pronounce his name. Some have even suggested that if we have to dig too hard to find out how his name was pronounced in ancient times, this means we are “splitting hairs” over something that is insignificant or unimportant. I have even heard some people criticize the pronunciation of “YaHuWaH” as they say that those of us who are using this pronunciation are making up our own version of the Hebrew Language.
But beloved, consider the scripture below:
Mishley (Proverbs) 25:2 It is the glory of Elohiym to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
This means that those who are willing to search out the truth concerning his name will be shown his name!
This means that those who are willing to search out the truth concerning his name will be shown his name!
In Exodus 3:14-15, YaHuWaH told Mosheh what proper name He is to be called for all generations:
Yod, Hey, Waw, Hey: YHWH
In Ancient Paleo Pictographs, these letters are seen below from right to left as follows: Yod (hand or arm); Hey (breath or spirit); Waw (nail or tent peg); Hey (breath or spirit);
These four letters are called “The Tetragrammaton.”
Shemoth (Exodus) 3:15 And Elohiym said moreover unto Mosheh, “Thus you shall say to the children of Yisra’el: ‘YHWH Elohiym of your fathers, the Elohiym of Abraham, the Elohiym of Yitzchaq, and the Elohiym of Ya’aqob, has sent me to you. this is my shem [name and character] forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.’”
Did you see this beloved? YaHuWaH said to Mosheh (Moses) THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER! This means that he cares about how we say his name!
There are three primitive roots to the name of YaHuWaH found in scripture. We can find all three of these roots out of the scriptures, by simply knowing what to look for. These words are found in the Hebrew Strong’s Concordance, and it also gives us the pronunciation and the meaning:
HaYaH...to be, to exist (#H1961 in the Strong’s Concordance).
HuWA...he (she or it) (#H1931 in the Strong’s Concordance).
HaWaH....to breathe, to exist (#H1933 in the Strong’s Concordance).
HaYaH + HuWA + HaWaH = YaH HuW WaH = YaHuWaH
YaHuWaH = yaw-hoo-wah
The name YaHuWaH means the following: “I AM HE (who) BREATHED.” or “I AM HE (who) EXISTS.”
Our Messiah’s name (Joshua) is #H3091 and it is 6 Hebrew letters: Yod, Hey, Waw, Shin, Waw, Ayin: YHWSWA.
The name YaHuWShuWA (Joshua) is made up of the following Hebrew words:
HaYaH...to be, to exist (#H1961 in the Strong’s Concordance).
HaYaH...to be, to exist (#H1961 in the Strong’s Concordance).
HuWA...he (she or it) (#H1931 in the Strong’s Concordance).
YShuWA....salvation (#H3444 in the Strong’s Concordance).
HaYaH + HuWA + YShuWA: “I am he who exists to save,” or you could also say “I am he who breathed salvation.”
HaYaH + HuWA + YShuWA: “I am he who exists to save,” or you could also say “I am he who breathed salvation.”
A good example of our Creator’s name is seen with Captain Jehu in the book of 2nd Kings who trampled on Jezebel. His name is seen in the Hebrew Concordance as follows:
#3058. Yehuw’ yay-hoo’ from 3068 and 1931; Jehovah (is) He; Jehu, the name of five Israelites:--Jehu.
King YaHuW (Yehuw or Jehu) was a forerunner and a prophetic type of Mashiyach (Messiah). He was anointed as King of Yahuwdah (Judah), and then he went to take down the corrupt and wicked kingdom of Queen Jezebel.
King YaHuW killed all the prophets of Ba’al and then he had Yezebel (Jezebel) killed by her servants. Because of this, he was rewarded by YaHuWaH with the longest dynasty of any king, for it lasted for five dynasties.
After he had Jezebel thrown down from her high tower, he trampled her under-foot with his horse, and he then united the two divided kingdoms of Judah & Ephraim.
When our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa returns, he will do the very same thing, as he will once-and-for-all, destroy MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS (Revelation 17:8-9), and he will trample down the wicked (just like King YaHuW or Jehu).
We will then see Mystery Babylon Religion “fall” from her high and lofty position (Revelation 14:8 & 18:2), in the same way that we saw Jezebel falling from her high tower in 2nd Kings 9:32-37.
Jezebel’s false religion included preventing the people of Yisra’el from pronouncing the true name of YaHuWaH! She insisted that they simply call him by a vain title which was “Ba’al!” The name “Ba’al” means “Lord, Master, husband!” It is a vain title that can apply to any false pagan deity!

King YaHuW’s name means “YaHuWaH is He.” This is a picture of our Messiah returning at his second coming, because he will return in the same manner as King YaHuW, with vengeance against Mystery Babylon. Hence, he will return as YaHuWaH himself!
At his first coming, he took on the name “YaHuWshuwa” which literally means “YaHuWaH is Salvation.” But at his second coming, he is coming to destroy all the false pagan kingdoms of this world. He is coming just like King YaHuW!
The name of our Messiah is seen in the Strong’s Hebrew Concordance as follows:
#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.
As you can see, the name of Joshua in the Hebrew Concordance is “YaHuWshuwa.”
We know that our Creator’s name has three syllables because the word for “LORD” in our English Bibles is #H3068 which is: YeHoVaH as seen below in the Concordance:
#3068. Yhovah yeh-ho-vaw' from 1961; (the) self-Existent or Eternal; Jehovah, Jewish national name of God:--Jehovah, the Lord. Compare 3050, 3069.
But we have to take into consideration that the 6th Hebrew letter, “Vav” used to be a “Waw” at one time before the Jews were exiled into Germany. This is a fact, because even the 6th letter of the Arabic Alphabet is the same, which is a “Waw.” Arabic is a sister language to Hebrew, and so we can see that the name of our Creator in Ancient times would have been “YeHoWaH,” except for the fact that the vowels were changed on purpose by the Masorites to accommodate the Talmudic ban on the name of our Creator.

The Masorites (Hebrew Scribes) in the 10th Century changed the vowels to our Father’s name on purpose by using a Modern Hebrew grammatical rule called “the pre-tonal shortening rule.”
This rule says that when the Father’s name comes at the end of people’s names such as EliYaHuW (Elijah) or YirmeYaHuW (Jeremiah), that it will remain as “YaHuW.” But whenever the three letter’s to our Father’s name comes at the beginning of names, the vowels shall be changed to “YeHoW.” This was done in order to disguise his name from the Gentiles. So we know that at one time, all names that begin with YeHoW were vowel pointed as YaHuW!
So now we know that when we see the first 3 letter’s to Father’s name, it is YaHuW and not YeHoW!
We can see this with King Jehu in the book of 2nd Kings. His name is spelled as Yod, Hey, Waw (the first 3 letters in Father’s name). This is called “the tri-grammaton.” So his name is YaHuW---not Jehu.
Now for all those naysayers who would try to tell us that “nobody knows how to pronounce his name,” let me show you that this is utterly false. For anyone who wants to know his name, he will reveal it to us!
Our Messiah said that he would not give us a stone when we ask for a loaf of bread (Luke 11:11). He also said “My sheep hear my voice,” so we know that he can reveal his name to us by his voice if we come to him with a pure heart (John 10:27).
“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.”
However, the “name written” is revealed to us only four verses later, as it is seen upon his thigh as “King of Kings & Master of Masters!” However, this is just one of his many titles, but not the name that we are commanded to call upon for salvation in Acts 4:12, which is YaHuWshuwa (Joshua).
In Revelation 19:12, the Greek word for “know” means “to perceive, to understand,” and the Greek word for “name” means “his office, rank or authority.” So the idea that we cannot know his name yet is completely false. We are told numerous times in prophecy that he will reveal his name to his people, Yisra’el. Revelation 19:12 is simply telling us that nobody fully understands his office or his rank yet as “King of Kings & Master of Masters!”
In Revelation 19:12, the Greek word for “know” means “to perceive, to understand,” and the Greek word for “name” means “his office, rank or authority.” So the idea that we cannot know his name yet is completely false. We are told numerous times in prophecy that he will reveal his name to his people, Yisra’el. Revelation 19:12 is simply telling us that nobody fully understands his office or his rank yet as “King of Kings & Master of Masters!”
Here are three witnesses from scripture telling us that we can know his name:
Tehilliym (Psalm) 91:14 Because he has set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he has known my name.
Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 52:6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that does speak: behold, it is I.
Yechezqel (Ezekiel) 39:7 So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Yisra’el; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am YHWH, the Holy One in Yisra’el.
There are some who would try to tell us that the name of YaHuWaH is “too holy to pronounce,” but I must bring correction to this vain tradition of men.
The scriptures specifically command us to do the following:
There are some who would try to tell us that the name of YaHuWaH is “too holy to pronounce,” but I must bring correction to this vain tradition of men.
The scriptures specifically command us to do the following:
Romiym (Romans) 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of YaHuWaH shall be saved.
The Hebrew word for “call” is #H7121 “qara” which means the following:
“To preach, proclaim, pronounce, publish his name!”
We are even told to set up a banner of his name!
Tehilliym (Psalm) 20:5 We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our Elohiym we will set up our banners: YHWH fulfill all your petitions.
To those who do not pronounce his name, or they somehow believe that it is too holy to pronounce, below we see that scripture says quite the opposite:
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 10:25 Pour out your fury upon the heathen that know you not, and upon the families that call not on your name: for they have eaten up Ya’aqob (Jacob), and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.
Tehilliym (Psalm) 79:6 Pour out your wrath upon the heathen that have not known you, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon your name.
Our Messiah came to declare to us the name of his Father in Heaven:
Yahuwchanon (John) 17:6 I have manifested your name unto the men which you gave me out of the world: yours they were, and you gave them to me; and they have kept your word.
Yahuwchanon (John) 17:26 And I have declared unto them your name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.

Did you know that many times in the New Testament scriptures, the title “The Lord” (kurios #G2962) was at one time in the Greek Text as KC (kappa sigma) which was a code name by the Greeks for his proper name, YaHuWaH?! Yes, it is true! Even the Aramaic Peshitta bears this out! Many places in our New Testament scriptures, our Heavenly Father’s name is there in the text, but it is hidden from us. Our Messiah came to declare his name to us!
In the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25, only five were wise and had oil in their lamps when the bridegroom came for the “Marriage Supper of the Lamb.” We get a big clue in the following verse as to what the “oil” is in the lamps of these five wise virgins:
Shir ha’Shiriym (Song of Solomon) 1:3 Because of the savour of your good ointments (shemen) your name (shem) is as ointment (shemen) poured forth, therefore do the virgins love you.
Did you see this, beloved? The five wise virgins have the “oil of his name!” The foolish virgins do not know his name!
Here is more evidence. The Congregation at Philadelphia is the only one out of seven assemblies that is given “an open door” to escape the last “ten days of tribulation” in Revelation 2:10. The Congregation at Smyrna had “good works” but there is no mention of them knowing his name. This is why Smyrna must “suffer tribulation for ten days!”
Our Messiah told us that many are called but few are chosen. Truly his name is a STRONG TOWER of safety that we can run into in these last days!
Mishley (Proverbs) 18:10 The name of YHWH is a strong tower: the righteous run into it, and are safe.

But Philadelphia has an open door that no man can shut, because they have not denied his name!
Chazown (Revelation) 3:8 I know your works: behold, I have set before you an open door, and no man can shut it: for you have a little strength, and have kept my word, and have not denied my name.
Some people have ridiculed me because I make such a strong emphasis on knowing our Creator’s name. They make statements like this: “his name simply means his character, and not the actual letters or pronunciation of his name.” But beloved, the word “shem” in Hebrew for “name” literally means “a monument erected in memory of a person.”
#8034 shem shame a primitive word (perhaps rather from 7760 through the idea of definite and conspicuous position; Compare 8064); an appellation, as a mark or memorial of individuality; by implication honor, authority, character.
Those of us who call upon his proper name will be decapitated for our witness and testimony of his name (Revelation 20:4). Those who are beheaded for the witness and testimony of YaHuWshuwa will be the ones who know him intimately by name. Beloved, we are not promised deliverance from physical death or martyrdom, but we are promised deliverance from the second death, if we call upon his name!
In Yahuw’el (Joel) 2:32, we are shown that in the last days, the only name that will deliver us from the second death is the name of YaHuWaH:
Yahuw’el (Joel) 2:
As you can see, beloved, there will only be a small remnant who will call upon the name of YaHuWaH in these last days! The Hebrew word for “delivered” is “malat” and it literally means “to escape narrowly” and it also means “to give birth to something!” The word “call” in this passage is once again, “qara” which means “to preach, proclaim, declare and publish” his name!
Only those who preach, publish, proclaim and call upon his name will become the bride and they will give birth to “one new man!” (Ephesians 2:15, Revelation 12:5).

As you can see from the above definition, a name is much more than just the character and authority of the person. It is literally “a mark” designated by the letters to his name! As a matter of fact, the Greek word for “character” is “charagma” and it literally means “a scratch, engraving, etching, carving, letters, etc.”
We must understand that nobody will make it in these last days of tribulation without knowing his true name. Many people will be tempted to take on vain and ambiguous titles promoted by the Antichrist in place of the true name of YaHuWaH. Such titles will make our Creator seem Ecumenical and ambiguous as if he is the “god of all religions.” And it will become politically correct to simply refer to the Creator by these generic titles: “Lord, God, Allah, haShem, Adonai” etc.

Yahuw’el (Joel) 2:
30 And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of YHWH come.
32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of YHWH shall be delivered: for in mount Tziyown (Zion) and in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) shall be deliverance, as YHWH has said, and in the remnant whom YHWH shall call.
