Does the Hebrew Word “Shuwa” Mean Something Evil?

What is the definition of taking our Creators name in vain?

Shemoth (Exodus) 20:7 You shall not take the shem (name) of YaHuWaH your Elohiym in vain [#7723]; for YaHuWaH will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain [#7723]. 

The word vain (pronounced sha-oo, not shoo-ah) means the following:

#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

As you can see, it means to lie about his name, to call his name evil, or to make his name desolate by refusing to pronounce it! 

This is the same thing as taking his name in vain! 

Those who lie about our Messiah’s name and say that the “shuwa” in Yahuwshuwa means something evil, need to repent! 

The word “repent” in Hebrew is “t’shuwa” (teshuva)! 

The word “t’shuwa” also means salvation, and deliverance! 

The lying pen of the scribes did the same thing with the Prophet Elisha’s name! 

The fuller spelling of the name Elisha (Eliyshuwa) is found in two places in Scripture, 2nd Samuel 5:15 & 1st Chronicles 14:5. 

The name “Eliyshuwa” (Elisha) means “Elohiym is salvation!”

Did our Messiah Celebrate Purim?

By Maria Merola אריאל 

© Copyright Double Portion Inheritance, March 2022

Did our Messiah celebrate Purim? At first glance, most people would say 
“No, he did not.” However, there are some compelling clues that our Messiah did celebrate this important feast with the Kingdom of Judah.

Yahuwchanon (John) 5:1 After this, there was a feast of the Yahuwdiym (Jews), and Yahuwshuwa went up to Jerusalem. 

What Feast Was This? 

In John 2:13-23 and John 6:4, Messiah celebrated Passover, and this takes place fourteen days after the biblical New Year in the first Month of Abib (Exodus 12:2 & 13:4). 

In John 4:45, Yahuwshuwa went to Jerusalem for a feast. 

We know that this was the Feast of Tabernacles, because in verse 35 it says: “Do you not say, There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest? See, I say to you, lift up your eyes, and see the fields, for they are white unto harvest!” 

He was speaking of the final wheat harvest in the agricultural year, which takes place at the Feast of Tabernacles, aka Sukkot. The Feast of Tabernacles is also referred to in Scripture, as “The Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year” (Exodus 23:16 & 34:22).

The Feast of Tabernacles is a prophetic shadow-picture of the final end-time harvest of souls, which will take place during the three Fall Feasts, at Messiahs return.

The next feast that is mentioned after John 4:45, is John 5:1, which is called “A Feast of the Yahuwdiym (Jews).”  The next feast after that, is in John 6:4:

Yahuwchanon (John) 6:4 And the Passover (Pesach), a feast of the Yahuwdiym (Jews), was near. 

So then, what feast comes between the Feast of Tabernacles & Passover? John 5:1 is obviously describing a feast that comes between John 4:35-45 (Tabernacles) & John 6:4 (Passover).

Therefore, the only feasts that land between Tabernacles & Passover are Chanukkah & Purim! 

Here is a chronological timeline of feasts mentioned in Johns gospel, that our Messiah kept during his earthly ministry:

Passover (Pesach) - John 2:13.
Tabernacles (Sukkot) - John 4:35 & 45.
Purim - John 5:1.
Passover (Pesach) - John 6:4.
Tabernacles (Sukkot) - John 7:1-2.
Chanukkah (Dedication) - John 10:22-23.
Passover - John 13:1.

Chanukkah is on the 24th day of the 9th Hebrew month of Kislev (Haggai 2:18-20). To learn more, see my blog: Is Chanukkah A Man-Made Festival?

Purim is on the 13th day of the 12th month of Adar (Esther 3:7, 3:13, 8:12 & 9:1). To learn more, see my blog: How Does Purim Point to Messiah?

However, since the Feast of Dedication (Chanukkah) was already identified in John 10:22-23, we can ascertain that the only other feast that Yahuwchanon (John) could have been referring to in John 5:1, is Purim! 

But why would the Apostle John not give this feast a name? Why would he leave us guessing by calling it “A feast of the Jews?” The first thing that comes to mind, is the fact that the name “Esther” means “Hidden.” 

Esther’s name also hints at the idea that she went into the Persian Empire under a “Hidden Identity & A Hidden Name!” 

Additionally, our Creator’s name is literally “Hidden” in the Book of Esther at least 20 times! 

This explains why the Apostle John kept the Feast of Purim “HIDDEN” from us! 

What other reason would John have had not to give this feast in John 5:1 a name? Well, lets think about this for a moment. During what time in history did the story of Queen Esther in Persia take place? It was around 483-482 B.CE. This was 26 years before Queen Esthers husband (Ahasuerus) enforced the decree that was first given by King Cyrus 100 years earlier. King Ahasueruss Greek name is Artaxerxes, or simply Xerxes. 

This is the same decree that is mentioned on Daniel 9:24-27:

Daniel 9:25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. 

500 years earlier, (after King Solomon died) we read in 1st Kings chapter 12, that Ten Tribes of Yisra’el from the Northern Kingdom left the House of David, and they were later taken captive by the Assyrians. 

Queen Esther was from the Tribe of Benjamin, and they were part of the Kingdom of Yahuwdah (Judah). Ten Tribes from the Northern Kingdom had already left the House of David 500 years earlier. Therefore, there were only two tribes left in the Kingdom of Judah, and they were Judah & Benjamin. The Levites were split, as some of then went to the Northern Kingdom, and some of them remained in the Southern Kingdom of Judah.

Therefore, when the Apostle John called it “A feast of the Jews,” this is because the only people whose lives were being threatened by Haman, were those from the Kingdom of Judah. In other words, the Yahuwdiym or Jews.

To this day, the Feast of Purim only matters to those from the Southern Kingdom of Yahuwdah (Judah). This is because the other Ten Tribes were not dwelling in the Kingdom of Persia with the Yahuwdiym (Jews). 

Therefore, it makes sense that it was called “A feast of the Jews,” because the Book of Esther was not part of the Ten Tribes of  Yisrael’s history. It was only part of the Two Southern Tribes of Judah’s history. 

Chanukkah & Purim are feasts that commemorate times in history when the Kingdom of Judah faced complete annihilation, but YaHuWaH saved them as a nation. And, if they had not been saved as a nation, the Lion of the Tribe of Yahuwdah (Judah) could not have been born to us!

This is why I personally believe in memorializing the Feasts of Chanukkah & Purim. I also believe that these two feasts were important to our Messiah, because they commemorate the fact his ancestors would have become extinct as a people, if YaHuWaH had not intervened.

Some have falsely claimed that the Book of Esther should not be in the Bible, because they claim that the Father’s name is not mentioned there. 

However, I have discovered at least 20 times where the name “HaYaH” (I AM) is “HIDDEN” in the Book of Esther! See my blog entitled: The Hidden Gospel in the Book of Esther

Why Would YaHuWaH Hide His Name in the Book of Esther? 

Proverbs 25:2 It is the glory of Elohiym to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter. 

Esther’s husband, King Ahasuerus, symbolizes our Messiah, because he searched for an obedient wife, and he found her! 

In Esther 9:21, Queen Esther issued a decree to the Kingdom of Judah, where it says that we should “Keep the 14th & 15th day of the 12th month of Adar,” (Purim).

But there is something fascinating about this verse: It is written with the name HaYaH (I AM) right there, IN FRONT OF THE WORD KEEP! 

This means that “The Days of Puwriym” (Purim) are DECREED that we should remember them, because YaHuWaH, (I AM) has PLACED HIS NAME THERE! 

Did you know that the name “Esther” also means “HIDDEN?” 

And, even though Esther is a Babylonian name---having it’s roots in the pagan goddess “Ishtar” (Easter), it was ordained of YaHuWaH that Hadassah would go into the Persian Empire INCOGNITO!

*Note: The same thing happened when Joseph’s real name was “HIDDEN” in Egypt as “Zaphnath-paaneah.” 

The same thing happened when our Messiah’s name (Yahuwshuwa) was “HIDDEN” in the nations as “Jesus!” 

Queen Esther’s real name was eventually revealed, as “Hadassah,” but her cousin Mordechai instructed her to use a “HIDDEN IDENTITY,” so that she would not be killed! 

Therefore, it stands to reason that even YaHuWaH allowed his name to be “HIDDEN” in the book of Esther, because our Messiah’s name has been “HIDDEN” in the nations for these past 2,000 years, until only recently, when Yisra’el was reborn in 1948.

Now, that we are living in the final generation from when the FIG TREE HAS BLOSSOMED, the true name of the Father & Son has come to light! 

See my blog: The Fig Tree Prophecy

Here are 20 places where the name “I AM” (HaYaH) is found in the Book of Esther. 

It is #1961 in the Hebrew Concordance, and you can easily find it on the KJV+ on esword. 

20 Times the Book of Esther Contains the Name “I AM,” or in Hebrew “HaYaH,” which is #1961 in the Concordance: 

Esther 1:1 Now it came to pass [I AM #1961] in the days of Ahasuerus, (this is Ahasuerus which reigned, from India even unto Ethiopia, over an hundred and seven and twenty provinces:) 

Esther 1:22 For he sent letters into all the king’s provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that [I AM #1961] every man should bear [I AM #1961] rule in his own house, and that it should be published according to the language of every people. 

Esther 2:5 Now in Shushan the palace there was [I AM, #1961] a certain Jew, whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite; 

Esther 2:7 And [I AM #1961] he brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle’s daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair and beautiful; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter. 

Esther 2:8 So it came to pass, [I AM, #1961] when the king’s commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto Shushan the palace, to the custody of Hegai, that Esther was brought also unto the king’s house, to the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women. 

Esther 2:12 Now when every maid’s turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that [I AM #1961] she had been [I AM #1961] twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women;) 

Esther 2:15 Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in unto the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king’s chamberlain, the keeper of the women, appointed. And [I AM #1961] Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her. 

Esther 2:20 Esther had not yet shewed her kindred nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther did the commandment of Mordecai, like as when she was [I AM #1961] brought up with him. 

Esther 3:4 Now it came to pass, [I AM #1961] when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai’s matters would stand: for he had told them that he was a Jew. 

Esther 3:14 The copy of the writing for a commandment to be given in every province was published unto all people, that they should be [I AM #1961] ready against that day. 

Esther 5:1 Now it came to pass [I AM #1961] on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king’s house, over against the king’s house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the gate of the house. 

Esther 5:2 And it was so, [I AM, #1961] when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre. 

Esther 6:1 On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were [I AM #1961] read before the king. 

Esther 8:13 The copy of the writing for a commandment to be given in every province was published unto all people, and that [I AM, #1961] the Jews should be [I AM, #1961] ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies. 

Esther 8:16 The Jews had [I AM, #1961] light, and gladness, and joy, and honour. 

Esther 9:21 To stablish this among them, that they should [I AM #1961] keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly. 

Esther 9:27 The Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so as it should not fail, that they would [I AM #1961] keep these two days according to their writing, and according to their appointed time every year.

The Hebrew word for “seven” (sheba) comes from the root word “shaba” meaning “To take an oath by repeating a declaration seven times.” 

Therefore, the number seven represents “covenant,” which is why we are commanded to keep every Seventh Day (Shabbat) holy, and to cease from our own works. 

We are also commanded to celebrate Seven Feasts as part of our Marriage Covenant with YaHuWaH. 

The Seven-Branch Menorah also represents the Seven Assemblies in the Book of Revelation. 

The Hebrew word for “two” (shanayim) represents “Two Witnesses.” There are also Two Minor Feasts that represent the Two Witnesses in Scripture (Torah & Prophets). 

“Chanukkah” means “Dedication,” and it celebrates the cleansing of YaHuWaH’s holy Temple. It also celebrates the conception of our Messiah in the womb (Haggai 2:18-20; Revelation 21:22). 

If there had been no Dedication (Chanukkah) of the Temple, there would not have been a nation for our Messiah to be born into!

“Puriym” means “To cast lots, to crush,” and it represents the casting of the lots for Yom Kippur. The High Priests on Yom Kippur were commanded to cast two lots. One lot was for the sacrificial goat who was to be killed; and the other is for the scapegoat, who goes free. 

In the Book of Esther, Satan wanted to kill the Yahuwdiym (Jews), which is the tribe into which our Messiah was destined to be born. Haman casted lots, but the Yahuwdiym (Jews) in Persia went free (like the scapegoat). Conversely, the ones who wanted to kill the Yahuwdiym (Jews) were slain (like the sacrificial goat). 

Genesis 3:15 tells us that the woman’s “SEED” would “CRUSH” the head of the Serpent! 

If Queen Esther had not been used by YaHuWaH to help “crush the enemy,” our Messiah (the seed) would not have been born into the world, to crush the head of the serpent! 

Therefore, Chanukkah & Puwriym are TWO WITNESSES in history, that YaHuWaH has preserved his covenant people, Yisra’el.

These two feasts testify to the fact that YaHuWaH has sent his Promised Seed! 

Without Chanukkah & Puwriym, there would be no Messiah, and no salvation for humanity!

I used to believe that the 9-branched Chanukkiah was unbiblical, until YaHuWaH began to open up my eyes! In Yahuwchanon (John) 15:5, our Messiah called his followers “branches” when he declared the following: 

I am the vine, you are the branches: He that abides in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing.
 
As I began to ponder his words, I remembered that there are seven branches on the Temple menorah, and these correspond to the seven feasts that are commanded in the Towrah (Leviticus 23).

However, in the prophets, we are commanded to observe two more festivals that had not yet been revealed when the Towrah was first given by Moses! These two minor feasts are Chanukkah & Puwriym (Purim). 

The Seven Torah Feasts outlined in Leviticus 23 teach us how to be faithful to the marriage covenant. 

The Two Prophetic Feasts (Chanukkah & Puwriym) teach us how to become a warrior bride, and to fight against the beast! 

We keep the Seven Feasts from the 1st through the 7th month of the year. 

In the 9th through the 12th month of the year, we remember the victory over Antiochus Epiphanes IV & Haman. 

Therefore, Chanukkah & Puwriym each commemorate victory over an Antichrist Leader!

It was the revelation of these two prophetic feasts that caused me to see why Yah has allowed there to be two more branches added to the Chanukiah. Yah showed me from Zechariah 4:2-12 & Revelation 11:4, that there is a witness for the nine branches in the end of days, pointing us to the Two Witnesses & the Seven Assemblies in the Book of Revelation.

Even though we are all aware of the fact that Judaism has added many vain traditions, YaHuWaH often reminds me that he has ordained that the Yahuwdiym (Jews) would be given the “scepter” or authority to rule over the other tribes (Genesis 49:10).

In Romans 3:1-2, the Apostle Shaul (Paul) wrote that “Unto the Yahuwdiym/Jewshave been entrusted with the contents of the oracles of Elohiym.

The word “oracles means “The contents of the Towrah.” Now, I do not mean to suggest that we should adhere to the vain traditions that Judaism often devises, because our Messiah often rebuked the religious leaders of his day for adding and subtracting from Towrah (Deuteronomy 4:2 & Proverbs 30:6). 

However, I will explain further as we progress, why the nine-branched menorah is used during Chanukkah. I personally use the seven-branched menorah with two individual candlesticks on either side, because it represents THE SEVEN ASSEMBLIES & THE TWO WITNESSES in the book of Revelation.

Chanukkah & Puwyrim (Purim) are both commanded in Scripture, because we are told in 2nd Timothy 3:16: 

“All scripture is given by inspiration of Elohiym, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” 

If “ALL SCRIPTURE” includes the Books the of Maccabees, (which were originally part of the 1611 King James Bible), and if ALL SCRIPTURE also includes the Book of Esther. How can we ignore the commandments that are given to us in the Prophets? 

*Disclaimer: I do not regard all the books of the Apocrypha as inspired Scripture, because some of these books contain heretical doctrines about praying to the saints, and to the dead. However, I do regard Maccabees as an accurate historical account, not to be taken lightly. 


Our Messiah has made it abundantly clear in Matthew 5:17-19, that it is not enough to obey the five books of Moses, which are called  “Towrah.” We are also commanded to obey the rest of Scripture, which includes the prophets!

In Revelation 1:20, our Messiah likened the seven-branched menorah to the seven assemblies in the first three chapters of Revelation. Our Messiah commended the ones who “Keep the commandments, and have the testimony of Yahuwshuwa” (Revelation 19:10). 


Those who keep the seventh-day Sabbath, and the seven feasts outlined in Leviticus 23 are the ones who have the testimony of our Messiah! 

These are the branches that are filled with the olive oil from the Two Olive Trees, which are BOTH HOUSES OF YISRA’EL! (see Ezekiel 37:15-20; Zechariah 4:1-14; Romans 11:17-25; Revelation 11:4-6). 

Yah also showed me that out of those Seven Assemblies, there are only TWO OVERCOMERS: Philadelphia & Smyrna! (see Revelation 1:20). 

Therefore, we have the SEVEN BRANCHES, which represent “COVENANT” & TWO BRANCHES, which represent the “TWO WITNESSES” of scripture (Towrah & Prophets, Moses & Elijah). 

*Chanukkah & Purim are like the Two Witnesses in Revelation 11:6. 

*Judah Maccabee operated in the Moses anointing (Towrah), while Queen Esther operated in the Elijah anointing (Prophets).

In Revelation 11:6, we are shown that the Two Witnesses do the same exploits of Moses & Elijah! 

Chazown (Revelation) 11:6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 

*The Elijah anointing - he prayed that it would not rain during his 3.5 years of ministry, therefore, he had the power to shut heavens, that it should not rain during the tribulation (1st Kings 17:1, James 5:17 & Luke 4:25-27). Elijah also prayed for the widow’s son three times, and he was resurrected.

*The Esther anointing - she fasted and prayed for three days and three nights and won favor to save her people from annihilation in the Persian Empire.

*The Moses anointing - he commanded all the plagues to come upon Egypt, as YaHuWaH instructed him, and as a result, he was used to defeat the Egyptian Empire, as they drowned in the Red Sea (Exodus 9:14; Revelation 9:20; 15:1, 6, 8; 16:9; 18:4, 8).

*The Maccabees anointing - he and his army fought against the evil Antiochus and as a result, they defeated the wicked Seleucid Empire. 

Chanukkah was all about obedience to the Towrah, because the Maccabees were Levites who were zealous for our Father’s house, just like our Messiah was. They obeyed the Towrah by cleansing the Temple and rededicating it back to YaHuWaH as the Towrah commands. Therefore, Chanukkah represents the Moses anointing in Revelation 11:6.

But Esther was used mightily in the same way that the prophet Eliyahuw (Elijah) was, when he exposed the 450 prophets of Ba’al. Esther did the same thing when she exposed Haman and his wicked plot. Right after Eliyahuw (Elijah) did that miracle on Mount Carmel, the people of Yisra’el rose up and killed 450 prophets of Baal.

The same thing happened with Esther. She exposed Haman, and that’s when he and his 10 sons were slaughtered on the same gallows they had intended to use to kill Mordechai.

Therefore, we are seeing a pattern!

*The Maccabees were carrying the Moses anointing from Revelation 11:6!

*Mordechai & Queen Esther carried the Elijah anointing from Revelation 11:6!

Both Haman & Queen Jezebel were of the same spirit!

Haman threatened to kill the Yahuwdiym (Jews) in Persia, and Queen Jezebel threatened to kill Eliyahuw (Elijah). However the same wicked plot that Haman forged against the Yahuwdiym (Jews) was used to destroy him. We see in this illustration, the prophet Elijah calling down judgement on the wicked King Ahab and his wife, Queen Jezebel. We also see Queen Esther calling down judgement on Haman!


Similarly, the same wicked plot that Queen Jezebel had forged against the prophet Eliyahuw (Elijah) ended up happening to her when she was thrown from her high tower and then trampled by Captain Yahuws (Jehu’s) horse and then her body was eaten by dogs (1st Kings 21:23).

*Esther & Elijah’s names both begin with the Hebrew letter Aleph!
Moses, Mordechai & Maccabee’s names begin with the Hebrew letter Mem!

*Queen Jezebel was a wicked queen who manipulated her husband into doing evil.

*Queen Esther was a righteous queen, who won her husband’s favor by her obedience and humility.


*Moses, Mordechai & the Maccabees were used to influence three kings:

*Moses dealt with Pharaoh.
*Mordechai dealt with King Ahasuerus.
*The Maccabees dealt with Antiochus IV.

*Moses, Mordechai & the Maccabees all refused to bow down to Antichrist leaders:

*Moses refused to bow to Pharaoh. 
*Mordechai refused to bow to Haman. 
*Maccabees refused to bow to Antiochus.

A Metaphor of our Creator Seen in the Film “Hollow Man”

By Maria Merola אריאל 
© Copyright Double Portion Inheritance, August 2002-2023
www.venmo.com@Maria-Merola

The film entitled “Hollow Man” from the year 2000, (starring Kevin Bacon & Elizabeth Shue), is something I often use as an analogy, to explain how the invisible Father is made visible through his visible image, the Son. 

The Invisible Creator, Elohiym is made visible as Messiah, Yahuwshuwa. 

There is only one place in the entire Bible where the word “person” (singular) is used to describe our INVISIBLE Elohiym, and that is in Hebrews 1:3. 

Speaking of our Messiah, the writer of Hebrews says the following: 

“Who being, the brightness of his glory, and the EXPRESS IMAGE OF HIS PERSON (singular), 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 Majesty on high….” 

The word “PERSON” in this passage is the Greek word “hupostasis” which means “ESSENCE, SUBSTANCE, BEING, PERSON.” 

This tells us that Elohiym is only ONE ESSENCE, ONE SUBSTANCE, ONE BEING, ONE PERSON. 

You will find no place in Scripture where YaHuWaH is described as TWO or THREE SEPARATE PERSONS. 

The term “EXPRESS IMAGE” means “AN EXACT COPY” or “FACSIMILE.” 

It does not mean that the FATHER & SON are twins, as in two separate copies of the same being. Otherwise, “The Shema” in Deuteronomy 6:4 would declare that YaHuWaH is “TWO” and not “ONE” (echad). 

*Note: the word “echad” means the following: ONE, ONLY, ALONE, UNITED, ALTOGETHER. 

The full scope of this word denotes that YaHuWaH is BOTH FATHER & SON, UNITED, and yet, he is still only ONE BEING--- ALTOGETHER & ALONE. 

This would explain why his name “YaHuWaH” means “THE SELF-EXISTENT ONE!” 

For the SON to be an “EXACT COPY” means that everything that the Father is (in his invisible form), is expressed FULLY in a TANGIBLE, and VISIBLE FORM for us to see and behold with our eyes.

Colossians 2:9 For in him dwells all the FULLNESS OF THE DEITY BODILY. 

For the sake of example, I like to use this film entitled “Hollow Man” starring Kevin Bacon & Elizabeth Shue. 

In this movie, Kevin Bacon is the chief scientist on a project where they are experimenting on a serum that makes people invisible. Kevin Bacon offers to become the “guinea pig” by taking the serum, and he becomes invisible. 

The only problem is, they cannot find the antidote to make him visible again. In order to make him visible, Kevin Bacon lays down on the operating table, as the other scientists pour liquid latex paint all over him. 

The liquid latex conforms to his invisible image, making him into a visible image of what his invisible form looks like. In this analogy, the Heavenly Father is like the invisible Kevin Bacon, and the Son is like the liquid latex paint, which reveals his true form in a visible and tangible way. 

Some people might call this “Modalism.” However, in the Modalist narrative, only the Messiah, Yahuwshuwa (Jesus) is considered a “person,” but the Father and the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit) are not considered “persons.” 

This logic is seriously flawed, because Modalism is using the dictionary definition for “person” which means “The bodily image of a human being.” 

That is why they do not view the Father or the Ruwach/Spirit as a “person.” However, if we use the biblical definition for “person” (hupostasis), it is not limited to the bodily image of a human being. 

The biblical definition for “hupostasis” (person) means “a being, a substance or an essence.” 

YaHuWaH is like H20, ONE SUBSTANCE taking on three forms: Ice, Water & Vapor, while at the same time, it remains the same substance-----H20.

Birth of the “King of Kings” on the Feast of Trumpets

 By Maria Merola אריאל 

© Copyright Double Portion Inheritance, August 2002-2023
www.venmo.com@Maria-Merola

Our Messiah’s birth on the Feast of Trumpets is fitting, because this feast has been prophetically called “The Day that No Man Knows!”  

In Matthew 24:36 & Mark 13:32, our Messiah was speaking to us in a Hebrew Idiomatic expression when he said that his coming for his bride would be on “A day that no man knows!” He was giving us a hint about the Feast of Trumpets! 

For these past 2,000 years, “NOBODY KNEW” exactly when he was born, and this has lead to the Christ-Mass lie! 

To learn more, see these blogs: 



As we approach the second coming of our Messiah, he is revealing more things about himself than ever before. 

He is revealing to us his true date of birth, and his true name, so that we will not be deceived by the impostor! 

Daniel 12:4 says that in the last days “knowledge shall be increased,” and this has enabled us to look back at the Astronomical Record, via computer software. 

This has lead to the discovery of what took place on that famous night: 

Chazown (Revelation) 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 

Chazown (Revelation) 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. 

The signs in the heavens that were visible when our Messiah was born, was the constellation of the Virgin giving birth to the Lion. Inside the Lion, was a conjunction of Venus & Jupiter, forming what the Ancient Hebrews call “The Righteous King!” 

The first sliver of the Renewed Moon was seen that night, “underneath the feet” of the Virgin! She was also “clothed” (covered) with the light of the sun, because she was pregnant with “The Sun of Righteousness!” (Malachi 4:2). 

She also had on her head, a “crown of twelve stars” for the Twelve Tribes of Yisra’el! 

During child-birth, “No man knows” when the head of the baby will “crown” or become visible from the birth canal. So, it is with the sighting of the Renewed Moon, and this is why it is fitting that our Messiah was born on “The Day that No Man Knows!” 

Similarly, “No Man Knows” the day, nor the hour when the bride of Messiah will be “born” into immortality, and when he will catch her away to meet him in the heavenly chuppah! (1st Thessalonians 4:17; 1st Corinthians 15:51-52). 

The Feast of Trumpets is when all the Kings of Yahuwdah (Judah) were “birthed” into their new office, and coronated (crowned) as kings. 

This procedure was followed consistently in the time of Solomon, Jeremiah, and Ezra. The Day of Trumpets was also acknowledged as the time for counting the years of their kingly rule. It was customary that the final ceremony in the coronation of kings was the blowing of trumpets. 

*For King Solomon, “Blow ye the trumpet, and say, ‘God save king Solomon’” (1st Kings 1:34). 

*For King Yahuw (Jehu), “And [they] blew with trumpets, saying, ‘Jehu is king’” (2nd Kings 9:13). 

*At the enthronement of Yahuwash (Jehoash), “The people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets” (2nd Kings 11:11). 

In Hebrew, “shafir” means “amniotic sac,” the fluid-filled sac that contains, nourishes, and protects a fetus in the womb. So what does this biological meaning of “shafir” have to do with the ritual of blowing the shofar? 

One connection between shafir and shofar is the fact that “The Feast of Trumpets” celebrates the birthday of the world, when YaHuWaH “BLEW INTO ADAM THE BREATH OF LIFE!” 

Yom Teruw’ah (Day of Blowing) is the birthday of humanity, when mankind was first created. 

In Exodus 12:2 & 13:4, (when YaHuWaH delivered Yisra’el out of Egypt), he established a spiritual New Year to remember his delivering us out of slavery. 

The New Year of our seven annual feasts would begin in the spring, fourteen days before Passover. Thus, there are two New Years in Scripture: 

1.) The first day of the seventh month of Ethaniym/Tishri (1st Kings 8:2), which is our physical birth as the human race. This is the birthday of the world, and the beginning of Linear Time on earth (Exodus 23:16 & 34:22). 

2.) The second New Year is in the first month, of Abib/Nisan, when our spiritual birth was established as the nation of Yisra’el, when we were brought out of slavery to sin (Exodus 12:2 & 13:4). 

Our Messiah is called “The Last Adam” (1st Corinthians 15:45), and therefore, in keeping with the pattern, it is fitting that our Messiah was also born physically, (into humanity) on the Feast of Trumpets, (since he came to represent sinful man). 

Yahuwshuwa, the Messiah was being trumpeted into the world as “The Righteous King,” when his head was “crowning” at that precise moment when the “last trumpet” sounded, and his mother, Miriyam gave one last shout on “The Day of Shouting!” 

There are four trumpet blasts that are traditionally sounded on this day. When Miriyam (Mary) “Cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered” according to Revelation 12:2, this was the LAST TRUMPET blast, called the Tekiah Gedolah! 

The Hebrew word for “blowing” is as follows: 

#8643 truw`ah ter-oo-aw from 7321; clamor, i.e. acclamation of joy or a battle-cry; especially clangor of trumpets, as an alarm, blowing of the trumpets, joy, jubilee, loud noise, rejoicing, shouting, high, joyful sounding. The root word is as follows: 

#7321 ruwa` roo-ah a primitive root; to mar (especially by breaking); figuratively, to split the ears (with sound), i.e. shout (for alarm or joy):--blow an alarm, cry (alarm, aloud, out), destroy, make a joyful noise, smart, shout (for joy), sound an alarm, triumph. 

Are you making the connection yet? 

What were the malakiym (angels) were doing on that same night when Messiah was born? 

Luqas (Luke) 2: 

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you GOOD TIDIINGS of GREAT JOY, which shall be to all people. 

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of Dawiyd (David) a Saviour, which is Mashiyach (Messiah) YHWH. 

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; You shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger (sukkah). 

13 And suddenly there was with the malak (angel) A MULTITUDE OF HEAVENLY HOST PRAISING Elohiym, and saying, 

14 Glory to Elohiym in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. 

The malakiym (angels) were shouting and rejoicing on the Feast of Trumpets, with the sound of the “Teruw’ah!”

According to the Astronomical Record research done by Dr. Ernest L. Martin, (who authored the book “The Star that Astonished the World”), the planetary alignment in Revelation 12:1-5 was being fulfilled on the night our Messiah was born! 

The entire book can be downloaded free at the link below:

What was visible on that night, (and what the shepherds saw on that night), was the constellation of the “Virgin” (Bethulah) and she was giving birth to “The Lion,” (Ariel). 

The sun was in the womb of the Virgin (mid-body), and our Messiah is referred to as “The Sun of Righteousness,” (Malachi 4:2). 

The first crescent moon was underneath the Virgin’s feet, and she was wearing a crown of stars around her head, for the Twelve Tribes of Yisra’el! 

Inside “Ariel the Lion” was a conjunction between Jupiter & Venus! 

These two planets in conjunction are anciently called “The King of Righteousness” by the Hebrews! 

Jupiter was later renamed by the heathens after a pagan deity, but the Ancient Hebrews called it “Ha’Tzadiq” (The Righteous). 

Venus was also later renamed by the heathens after a pagan deity, but the Ancient Hebrews called it “Ha’Malek” (The King). 

Thus, the conjunction of these two planets spells out “The King of Righteousness,” aka Malkiy-Tzedeq (Melchizedek)! 

This planetary alignment remained for two years in the heavens, leading the Wisemen from the Orient to Bethlehem to visit the King! 

The Feast of Trumpets is also when all the Kings of Yisra’el were crowned (coronated)! 

The Bible Code research done by Roy Reinhold, also corroborates with Scripture in being able to pin-point the exact date of our Messiah’s conception, which fell on the Gregorian Calendar date of December 13th in 4 B.C. 

This date correlates to the 24th day of the 9th Hebrew month of Kislev. See Haggai 2:18-23. 

Adding exactly 271 days to that date, brings us to September 11th in 3 B.C. at 7:00 p.m. (just before sundown). This date correlates to the 1st day of the 7th Hebrew month of Ethaniym (Tishri). 

Thus, the countdown to his circumcision began on September 12th and his circumcision fell exactly at sundown on the 9th day of Ethaniym (Tishri) on Yom Kippur! 

Why do we use 271 days for the gestation period? 

1.) The average gestation for a male child is exactly 271 days, which is exactly 9 months of 30-day months, plus one extra day for the delivery. 

2.) A Female gestation is often 10 days longer, (281 days), because the female anatomy is more complex. 

3.) The extra 10 days for a female gestation, prophetically ties into the parable of the 10 Virgins and the 10 Days of Awe between the Feast of Trumpets, and the Day of Atonement. 

4.) The Hebrew word for “pregnancy” is “herayon,” which has a numerical value of 271! 

In addition to the research of these two men, I have discovered even more corroborating evidence from the Scriptures, proving that our Messiah was conceived on Chanukkah, and he was born 9 months later on the Feast of Trumpets! 

Below, you will find my blogs and video teachings, which are the culmination of 22 years of research on the birth of our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa.

The Valley of Megiddon

By Maria Merola אריאל 
© Copyright Double Portion Inheritance, October 14, 2023

On September 7th 2023, many of us were celebrating the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles, when we heard about the attacks that took place in Gaza in Yisra’el. 

And since that time, the entire world has been watching and waiting, because it is becoming increasingly more obvious that the nation of Yisra’el is the prophetic time-clock of the Bible, leading to the second coming of our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa (Read all of Zechariah 12, Revelation 6,and Revelation 16). 

Also see these other blogs: 



Are This World War III or the Battle of Armageddon?


I do not believe this current attack in the Gaza is the final battle of Armageddon.

Zechariah 12:11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. 

Revelation 16:16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. 

Before this final battle takes place, many more things must happen! We are still in the BIRTH PAINS! 



The Great Tribulation has not even begun yet, but it will be here very soon, the moment that we SEE WITH OUR EYES the Abomination that causes Jerusalem to become DESOLATE! (see Matthew 24:15-21). 

The Abomination aka the IMAGE OF THE BEAST will be in the BRICK & MORTAR TEMPLE! (see Revelation 11:1-2), not the underground Synagogue that is described in Ezekiel 8!





I believe Trump will step in and PRETEND to save the world from World War III, and when this happens, the entire world will “Wonder after the beast, whose deadly wound was healed.”

Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered [admired] after the beast. “Covenant with Death.”

But his peace deal with Israel and the world will only last for a short time, and then he will turn on Israel. And that is when “The Little Horn, aka “The Beast,” will gather together his “Ten horns,” aka, his TEN-NATION CONFEDERACY, against ISRAEL!

Revelation 17:16 And the ten horns which you saw upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. 

To learn more about who this whore is, see my other blog: Who & Where is Mystery Babylon?

And these shall HATE THE WHORE,(and shall burn her with fire), because she will have allowed the ONE WORLD RELIGION OF ANTICHRIST INTO JERUSALEM!

I believe this current war is a political move to push Donald Trump, aka “The Little Horn,” back into power, thus giving him credit for brokering a deal between Israel & the Palestinians, a Two-State Solution?

This could resurrect Trump & KushnerPeace to Prosperity deal that was first proposed on January 28, 2020, but it was rejected by the Palestinians & Israel. See the following link: “Trump & Kushner’s Peace to Prosperity Deal”

But let’s get something straight, Trumps Abraham Accords are a fulfillment of Daniel 7:24 & Daniel 8:25, also Isaiah 28:15-18, called “A Covenant with Death.” 

Many are falsely claiming that the Abraham Accords are a fulfillment of Daniel 9:26-27, but this is not correct. Daniel 9:26-27 is not about  an Antichrist leader, it is speaking about the real Messiah, Yahuwshuwa who “Confirmed the Abrahamic Covenant with Many for One Week,” and in the middle of that “week” he was “cut off!” 

As you can see from the above graphic, there are many patterns throughout Scripture, hinting at the idea that Yisra’el was going to become two divided kingdoms, after King Solomon died. Therefore, Daniels 70th Week divided in half, makes perfect sense prophetically-speaking. 

To learn more, see these other blogs: Blogs About Daniel’s 70th Week

In these other blogs, I show clear evidence from Scripture, that our Messiah died “IN THE MIDDLE OF DANIEL’S 70th WEEK,” leaving the last half of the “week” for the Corporate Two Witnesses to finish.



The photographer, William Coupon took this photo of Trump in 1983, and he wrote the following: ‘I had to clean bird poop off his sleeve afterwards.’



In the article, Trump expressed his desire to be a peace negotiator between the Israelis and Palestinians. 


So we decided to get this bird to symbolize peace. It worked great graphically – though I had to clean up the poop that eventually ran down Trump’s sleeve. I believe the bird poop on Trump’s sleeve is a prophetic warning, that he will renege on his Peace Deal, and turn his back on Yisra’el, once he elevates himself as the Man of Sin in the Temple!

However, what is most alarming, is that there is also an increasing number of people within the community of believers in Messiah, who are taking a position of hatred towards the nation of Yisra’el. Some are even going so far as to give their support for terrorist groups such as Hamas & Hezbollah. What has caused so many followers of Messiah to take such a hostile position towards the Modern State of Yisra’el?

There are several things that have contributed to this:

1.) Jesuit-Illuminati Infiltrators posing as Torah-teachers and leading the sheep astray by teaching lies.

2.) Many are throwing out the proverbial baby with the bathwater.

3.) The misconception that All Jews are the Synagogue of Satan, just because of Atheistic Elite Power Jews in Hollywood and Politics. 

*Examples: Howard Stern, Harvey Weinstein, Stephen Spielberg, Jeffrey Epstein, George Soros, the Rockfellers, the Rothschilds.

4.) The Black Hebrew Israelite Movement, which has been fueled by the Nation of Islam leaders such as Louis Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, etc. 

These infiltrators have successfully influenced the masses to believe that the Modern State of Yisra’el is not the true Yisra’el of the Scriptures! We are seeing extremists on Social Media falsely claiming that the original land of Yisra’el is in some obscure place in Africa, which is a complete lie. 

We are even seeing many white people swallowing these lies, as they begin to embrace the notion that only black people are the original Yisraelites. They have embraced the false idea that the white Jews who were exiled in Europe exile after the Roman Siege, are supposedly impostors.

I cannot tell you how sick and tired I am of people quoting Revelation 2:9 & 3:9 out of context, thinking that our Messiah was addressing all Jewish people, everywhere, and for all time:

Revelation 2:9 I know your works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Yahuwdiym (Jews), and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.  

Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Yahuwdiym (Jews), and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved you. 

I have more to share on this subject, at this other blog: Biblical Zionism versus Political Zionism

Is the Modern State of Israel the True Yisra’el of the Bible?

Here is proof that YaHuWaH divinely allowed the Nation of Yisra’EL to be reborn in 1948, thus partially fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah 66:7-14. 

Proverbs 13:22 says that YaHuWaH has laid up the “WEALTH OF THE WICKED” for his righteous purposes! 

Therefore, he used ZIONIST BANKERS & the United Nations to accomplish his purposes! 

He has laid a trap for them, and they shall fall into their own trap!

Ezekiel’s Days of Bearing the Iniquity for Both Houses of Yisra’EL

In Ezekiel 4:4-6, Elohiym instructed the prophet Ezekiel to lay on his side for 430 days, representing 430 years of iniquity upon Yisra’EL.

But, he also promised that he would gather Yisra’EL “Out of all countries, and will bring them into their own land” (Ezekiel 36:24). 

True to prophecy, the people were taken captive by Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, in 606 B.C. (Daniel 1). 

The Babylonian Captivity lasted 70 years as prophesied in Jeremiah 25:11, ending in 536 B.C. (Ezra 1). At the conclusion of the Babylonian Captivity, 360 years remained of the 430 years prophesied by Ezekiel. But Yisra’EL did not repent of her sins.

Indeed only 50,000 people returned at the end of the 70 years (Ezra 2:64-65). Most of Yisra’EL chose not to return with Zerubbabel at that time. 

In Leviticus 26:18, Elohiym warned that if Yisra’EL continued in sin after punishment, their punishment would be multiplied 7 times.

When the remaining 360 years is multiplied by 7, the punishment extends to 2,520 years. Elohiym’s prophetic year is based upon a 360-day year (see Genesis 7:11, 7:24 and 8:5; Revelation 12:6 and 12:14, as examples). 

2,520 years of 360 days (a biblical year) is 907,200 days. 

Based upon our Gregorian Solar calendar of 365 days, this is 2,483 years, 9 months, and 21 days. 

Adding this period to the date of the decree of King Cyrus discussed in Ezra 1 (see above), we come to the date of May 14, 1948! 

*Note: do not forget that there is no year 0 A.D. 

Elohiym’s Word & Jerusalem: June 7, 1967: 

The exact same calculation can also apply to the captivity of Jerusalem. When the people were taken into captivity in 606 B.C., the city of Jerusalem was not then destroyed. 

However, in 587 B.C., Jerusalem was taken, and the temple destroyed (2nd Kings 25). 70 years later, in 517 B.C., the temple was reconstructed (Ezra 6:15). 

When we add 2483 years, 9 months and 21 days to this date, we come to June 7, 1967. 

What is special about this date? 

June 7, 1967 is the concluding day of “The 6-Day War,” in which Yisra’EL, for the first time since 517 B.C., regained Jerusalem! 

As you can see, the dates of May 14th, 1948 & June 7th 1967 can be accurately calculated using the years that Ezekiel was told to lay on his right side for Judah, and his left side for Yisra’EL.

Over the past week, since the attacks on Gaza, I have seen an overwhelming amount of people posting things things on Facebook about the State of Israel that are contrary to Scripture. These people are posting “half-truths,” therefore, it sounds like the truth (at first), until we do a deep dive into the Scriptures, and we hear the rest of the story.

One of the lies I have seen people posting this past week is that “Yisrael is the born-again people all over the world, but not the land.” 

If Yisra’el is only “A PEOPLE,” and not “A LAND,” why does Zechariah 8:22-23 say the nations will come to Jerusalem, grabbing the Tziyt-Tzyit (fringes) of one Yahuwdiy (Jew)? 

Zechariah 8:22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek YHWH of hosts in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem), and to pray before YHWH. 

Zechariah 8:23 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 KANAPH [Tziyt-Tziyt] of him that is a Yahuwdiy (Jew), saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that Elohiym is with you. 

If you say that Yisra’el is “ONLY A PEOPLE,” and “NOT THE LAND,” then, who was the Apostle Shaul (Paul) speaking about in Romans 11, when he spoke of “THE NATURAL BRANCHES?” 

And who are “THE WILD BRANCHES?” The wild branches are the NATIONS that are born-again through the blood of Messiah! 

If you are a “WILD BRANCH,” (and yet you claim to be grafted into the olive tree), WHAT ARE YOU GRAFTED INTO? 

If you claim that the Land of Yisra’el is not the true Yisra’el, where are the NATURAL BRANCHES??? 

If you claim that only those in the nations are the true Yisra’el, but the Modern State of Yisra’el is not the true Yisra’el, you are boasting against the branches! 

And if you BOAST AGAINST THE NATURAL BRANCHES, YOU WILL BE CUT OUT OF THE OLIVE TREE!!! 

There is biblical proof that YaHuWaH divinely caused the Modern State of Israel to be “BORN IN ONE DAY,” as per Isaiah 66:7-14.

To those who believe that “ALL JEWS” are the Synagogue of Satan, do you not study the Scriptures?

Or do you mostly take your beliefs from Hitler-esque Propaganda Memes on Facebook?

Do you even bother to study the Scriptures, regarding the place where YaHuWaH has chosen to place his name?

See the following: Deuteronomy 16:2-6; 1st Kings 11:36; 2nd Kings 21:4-7; 23:27; 2nd Chronicles 6:6; 33:4.

Do you not believe that YaHuWaH has a remnant of his people, the “ONE-THIRD” who will meet him at the Mount of Olives?

See Zechariah 12:7-10; Ezekiel 13:8-9.

Despite the corrupted Political Zionist government, YaHuWaH says the following:

“I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem!” (Zechariah 12:9).


If you want to be destroyed, then continue to speak evil against the land that YaHuWaH has given to Abraham, and to his physical and spiritual descendants!

If you want to be destroyed, then continue to speak evil against YaHuWaH’s remnant that he has sealed for the day of redemption! (Zechariah 12:7-10; Ezekiel 9:4-6; Revelation 7:1-8).

Where Has YaHuWaH Chosen to Place His Name Forever? 

1st Melekiym (Kings) 11:36 And unto his son will I give one tribe, that Dawiyd (David) my servant may have a light always before me in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem), the city which I have chosen me to put my name there. 

2nd Melekiym (Kings) 21:4 And he built altars in the house of YHWH, of which YHWH said, In Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) will I put my name. 

2nd Melekiym (Kings) 21:7 And he set a graven image of the grove that he had made in the house, of which YHWH said to Dawiyd (David), and to Shelomo (Solomon) his son, In this house, and in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem), which I have chosen out of all tribes of Yisra’el, will I put my name FOREVER. 

2nd Melekiym (Kings) 23:27 And YHWH said, I will remove Yahuwdah (Judah) also out of my sight, as I have removed Yisra’el, and will cast off this city Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there. 

2nd Dibre ha Yamiym (Chronicles) 6:6 But I have chosen Yerushalayim (Jerusalem), that my name might be there; and have chosen Dawiyd (David) to be over my people Yisra’el. 

2nd Dibre ha Yamiym (Chronicles) 33:4 Also he built altars in the house of YHWH, whereof YHWH had said, In Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) shall my name be FOREVER. 

2nd Dibre ha Yamiym (Chronicles) 33:7 And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of Elohiym, of which Elohiym had said to Dawiyd (David) and to Shelomo (Solomon) his son, In this house, and in Yerushalayim (Jerusalem), which I have chosen before all the tribes of Yisra’el, will I put my name FOREVER:

Another reason why many believers claim that the Modern State of Israel is not the true Yisra’el, is because they do not re

In Isaiah 66:7, “The woman” (Jerusalem) gives birth “BEFORE” her Labor Pains (Before the Great Tribulation). 

However, in Revelation 12:2-5, “The woman” (Jerusalem) gives birth “AFTER” her Labor Pains (After the Great Tribulation). But why??? 

Because there are TWO GATHERINGS FOR TWO GROUPS OF 144,000! 

1.) Revelation 7 - “The Natural Branches” (Romans 11:24) and “The Sands on the Seashore” descendants of Abraham (Genesis 22:17). 

This group of 144,000 are sealed in the foreheads for the future day of redemption. These are the ones who began returning to the land in 1948. 

They are also the “one-third” of the inhabitants of Jerusalem who will meet their Messiah at the Mount of Olives (Zechariah 12:10; Ezekiel 5-9). 

2.) Revelation 14 “The Wild Branches” (Romans 11:17-24) and “The Stars of the Heavens” descendants of Abraham (Genesis 22:17). 

This group of 144,000 are given their “Father’s name” in the foreheads, and “They follow the lamb wherever he goes.” 

These represent “Ten men from the nations who grab the tziyt-tzit of one Yahuwdiy (Jew),” according to Zechariah 8:22-23. 

To learn more, see my other blog: Who are the 144,000?

Many are now claiming that the Modern State of Israel is not the true Yisrael, simply because the Rothschilds and the United Nations were instrumental in helping to birth the nation once again. Some are even suggesting that we should not support Israel because of the 6-pointed star on the Israeli Flag, which they falsely claim is the Star of Moloch or Ishtar mentioned in Amos 5 & Acts 7. However, I am going to prove this theory to be false.

The “Shield of David” (Magen David) is found SEVEN TIMES IN SCRIPTURE!!!

2nd Samuel 22:3 The Elohiym of my rock; in him will I trust: HE IS MY SHIELD [MAGAN], and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; you save me from VIOLENCE [HAMAS].

2nd Samuel 22:36 You have also given me the SHIELD [MAGAN] of YOUR SALVATION: and your gentleness has made me great.


The monogram that David designed for his Battle Shields contain two Hebrew Letters spelling out “David” in Paleo Hebrew.

The name “David” contains two interlocking “Dalets,
(D & D), which are shaped like a triangle.

In Paleo Hebrew, the letter “Dalet” (equivalent to the English D) means “The Door!”

The “Shield of David” (Magen David) represents a portal (door) to heaven and and a portal (door) to earth.

One door ascends to heaven, the other door descends to earth.

Yahuwshuwa Messiah is the one who “ascends and descends” and gathers the wind in his fists (Ephesians 4:8-9; Proverbs 30:4). 

I refuse to give the devil credit for things that YaHuWaH created! In the Briyth Chadasha (New Testament), the word “door” means “shield.” 

In Ancient Hebrew, the door to a tent is a flap shaped like a triangle. See the Greek Concordance, and you will see that the shield (thyreos) is translated as “door.” 

Ephesians 6:16 Above all, taking the shield (thyreos, door) of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 

Yahuwchanon (John) 10:1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that enters not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 

Yahuwchanon (John) 10:2 But he that enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 

Yahuwchanon (John) 10:7 Then said Yahuwshuwa unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 




The Shield of David has been discovered in Archaeological Digs:

The devil is a thief and a robber, and he has tried to hijack this symbol for himself, but do not let him have it!

Stop giving the devil credit for the things that YaHuWaH creates!

Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

The 6-pointed Star is meant to point us to Messiah. 

Amos 5:26 & Acts 7:43 is describing the 8-pointed Star of Ishtar, which is also called the “Star of Moloch!” 

This prophecy in Numbers 24:17 is about our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa:

Numbers 24:17 I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not near: there shall come a Star out of Ya’aqob (Jacob), and a Sceptre shall rise out of Yisra’EL, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. 



The Hebrew word for “Star” is Kowkab, which tells us a story in Paleo Hebrew Letters: 

Kaph - The Open Palm. 

Waw - The Nail. 

Kaph - The Open Palm. 

Beyt - The House of Yisrael. 

The message we get from this word “Kowkab” is below: 

“He opened both palms (kaph), and he was nailed (waw), for Both Houses (beyt) of Yisra’EL!” 

The 6-pointed Star, is NOT the Star of Moloch!


The 6-pointed Star is a symbol of our Messiah, who is the Bright & Morning Star of Jacob (Numbers 24:17; Revelation 22:16).

It’s the 8-pointed Islamic Star----the Star of Ishtar, that is the Star of Moloch!

YaHuWaH punishes Yisra’el when we sin against him, but that doesn’t give people the right to be like Balaam who wanted to curse Yisra’el! 

Those of you who have children should understand this concept. You, as their parents have a right to discipline your own children when they misbehave. But let another person come along and decide to physically harm your child, and we would all see your fangs come out! 

Why should it be any different with YaHuWaH? 

YaHuWaH is allowed to discipline his own children, but the nations who come against his Holy Land (where he has chosen to place his name forever), those nations will experience his fierce wrath! 

And that includes those of you who call yourselves believers in Messiah, yet, you cut yourselves off from the Olive Tree by speaking evil of his land. 

YaHuWaH is allowed to punish his own people, but you are not allowed to curse them!  

Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Messiah Yahuwshuwa.

The above verse has been taken way of out context. Paul is not saying that Jews no longer exist, or that females no longer exist. Paul is saying that there is NO DIFFERENCE in the eyes of the Father, as far as pedigree, nationality, gender, or social status. 

All humans are called to salvation, as long as we come to him by the blood of the lamb. But those who speak evil of his land, are speaking evil of his name! 

Why? Because he has chosen to place his name in Jerusalem forever! 

Those who speak evil of his land and his name, are cutting themselves off from the Olive Tree. 

I have been asking Yah how to pray for the people of the land of Israel that we love so much. This morning He brought me to Exodus 32:11-14, the prayer that Mosheh (Moses) prayed as Yah was so angry with the Israelites about their disobedience. Read the scripture yourself but I am going just to write a few lines here about what it says. Mosheh pleaded with Yah for the Israelites. He ask Yah "Why let the enemy say that it was with evil intentions that You led them out into the wilderness, why let the nations say it was to wipe them out, to wipe them off the face of the earth. 

Don't bring such disaster on your people. --then in verse 14 YaHuWaH then changed His mind about the disaster He had planned for His people!"

Shemoth (Exodus) 32:11 And Mosheh besought YHWH his Elohiym, and said, YHWH, why does your wrath wax hot against your people, which you hast brought forth out of the land of Mitzrayim (Egypt) with great power, and with a mighty hand?  

Shemoth (Exodus) 32:12  Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.  

Shemoth (Exodus) 32:13  Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.  

Shemoth (Exodus) 32:14  And YHWH repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
