Strangers

STRANGERS

The identity and status of the “strangers” in the Bible CANNOT be interpreted by assumption or by a universal application of one definition. We need to determine which word is being used — and the context in which it is used — in order to determine the person’s identity and relationship to Israel.

There are a few different words used for stranger.

Some are verbs and mean to dwell. The others are nouns.

It is important to know the differences between the meanings of each word.

Some strangers are kinsman, some are referring to estranged kinsman.

Some strangers are not kinsman, meaning alien, foreign, of another race.

Some strangers are those Israelites not of the seed of Aaron.

Yahweh made it clear which posterity of the Levitical priesthood would be head during the days of the old covenant priesthood.

Yahweh is clear that He wants His people separate from the other races.

This study is an examination of each word defining the 'stranger' and each of its occurrences.

We are not going to spend time on the covenants and promises. That is another topic too large to cover in this study. But you should at least understand that all the covenants and promises Yahweh God made are with an exclusive people on this earth. The household of Adam, and more specifically narrowing down to the children of Jacob Israel, son of Isaac, son of Abraham.

The covenants God made with Abraham are with his literal and physical seed. Seed in Hebrew is zera, and means sperm, offspring, descendants.

In Genesis 15:4 Yahweh says to an Abram whose wife Sarai had not yet bare him Isaac, that 'this son which shall come forth out of your own bowels shall be your heir'.

In verse 18 Yahweh says to Abram 'Unto your seed have I given this land'.

Abram did not believe that strangers not of his seed would come forth from his own bowels and be his heirs. Nor did he believe that the land would be given to 'spiritual' Israelites.

In Genesis chapter 17 we see Yahweh make the covenant 'between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly, and My covenant is with you, and you shall be a forefather of many nations.'

Forefather is H1 ab, meaning head or founder of a household, group, family or clan. Ancestor. Originator.

The many nations are the nations that came from the 12 tribes of Jacob, son of Isaac, son of Abraham.

Nations here is from H1471, which is goyim in the Hebrew.

If Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and the Israelites were Jews, then how could they be goyim (non-Jews)?

How did Isaac's wife Rebekah have two goyim in her Jewish belly?

Because goyim simply means nations, or peoples. The context determines which nation or people are the subject. Goyim does not mean non-Jew, as the 'churches' teach.

See the study on Gentiles to learn more. Links are at the bottom of the document.

In Genesis chapter 17 verses 5-7 we see Yahweh promise Abraham that He will make many nations of him, and they would be very fruitful, and kings will come out of him.

The Jews are not many nations, they are not fruitful, per the mouth of Yahshua Christ Himself, and they are not kings, never were, and never will be. Herod was not a king, he was a tetrarch (ruler of a fourth) placed in authority by Rome.

Then Yahweh says in verse 7 “And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your seed after you in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto you, and to your seed after you.”

Where do the 'churches' get that this 'seed' is or can be 'spiritualized'?

Well, when you don't understand who is who in Scripture, or who you are, then you will identify as a transGentile and deny who you really are. You won't understand the exclusivity of the covenants, and that this Bible is the heritage of a certain household, but rather you will think the OT is about Jews and the NT is about the 'church', and you will believe all the fairy tales of raptures, millenniums, antinomianism, and happy meal sermons as you sit in your pew on the day of the sungod.

Paul in Galatians even says that 'the covenant, that was confirmed before of God, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after (the call of Abraham), cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.'

In Genesis 17:9-10 Yahweh says twice unto Abraham “You shall keep My covenant therefore, you and your seed after you in their generations”.

In verses 10-14 detail the covenant of circumcision. Paul in his epistles explained that since the resurrection, those who are 'called' should remain in their calling, and do not need to get circumcised at that point. Male children are to be circumcised on the eighth day.

Many believe this was 'done away with', but Yahweh made it a point to repeat Himself and state that it is a token/sign of this covenant between Yahweh and Abraham for everyone 'in his generations', and that 'My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.'

Sounds pretty clear and solid to me. ​​ 

In verse 16 Yahweh even says that Sarah will be blessed and that she will be a mother of nations (goyim); and kings of people shall be of her.

We see in verse 19 that Yahweh says of Isaac “And I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, with his seed after him.”

But Ishmael, who was Abraham's first son through Hagar was given no covenants or promises to him or his seed. They were only blessed and would multiply.

Yahweh repeats in verse 21 so there is no confusion that “But My covenant will I establish with Isaac.”

Skip forward to Leviticus 26:42 and we see that this covenant was passed down from Abraham to Isaac to Jacob and now to Jacob's children.

There is no 'spiritualizing' these covenants. They are with the household of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and their descendants understood this, as we see in Deuteronomy 4:31 that Moses reminds the people that Yahweh will not forget the covenant of your fathers which He sware unto them. And in 2Kings 13:23 the children of Israel are again reminded of Yahweh covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Over and over we see consistency with who these covenants are with. Israelites. They include prophecies and identifying marks, all of which fit we Anglo-Saxon Caucasian Israelites.

Not once do we see any promises or covenants made or prophesied to be made with Gentiles and a church. The 'churches' are the ones that teach that the New Covenant is with them, when we can clearly see that the covenants are made with these BC Israelites and the New Covenant, which is a Renewed Covenant, is with the AD descendants of these BC Israelites.

We see in Judges 2:1-2 that while our ancestors, and we, constantly break our end of the covenant, Yahweh will not break His. He reminds them that “I will never break My covenant with you.”

1Chronicles 16 we see “O ye seed of Israel His servant, ye children of Jacob, His chosen ones. Be mindful always of His covenant; the word which He commanded to a thousand generations.”

Does that include 'spiritual generations' too?

We see in Nehemiah chapter 9 our ancestors are once again reminded that Yahweh our God chose Abram, and made a covenant with him, and to his seed.

In the Psalms we see that His promise never fails.

In Psalm 105 is a repeat of 1Chronicles 16. But not one mention that these promises and covenants would be 'spiritualized' in any way.

In Isaiah 42:6 we finally see the Gentiles added to the covenant. Or do we?

If we back up to verse 1 the context is “My servant”. Yahweh is not only speaking of Isaiah, but also of Yahshua Christ, and also of we Israelites, all of which are children of Jacob. That His servant, Jacob, which Isaiah, Christ, and we Israelites are, shall establish justice in the earth: and the isles shall wait for His law.

The isles are the British isles and coastlands, where many of our ancestors migrated to after the Assyrian deportation.

These are some of the 'lost' sheep of the house of Israel Jesus Christ commanded His disciples to go to.

Yahweh states in verse 8 that “My glory will I not give to another.” He also says it again in 48:11.

We are Yahweh's glory (Isa 46:13).

In Isaiah 49:8 we see that we, Jacob, are helped, and preserved, and given for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, set the prisoners free, and feed the people that are in darkness (ignorance). Just as prophesied unto Abraham, we Israelites have become a multitude of nations, fruitful, we spread the Gospel, we colonized the world, and became the light of the Society.

When have the other races or the Jews ever fulfilled these, or any, prophecies?

In Isaiah 54 we are reminded of the divorce of our ancestors and how 'in a little wrath Yahweh hid His face from them, but that His mercy and loving-commitment shall not depart from them, neither shall the covenant of His peace be removed.'

In chapter 59 we see that the covenant is still with Jacob. His spirit was upon our ancestors, His words in their mouths, and shall not depart out of their mouth, nor out of the mouth of their seed, nor out of the mouth of their seed's seed, from henceforth and forever.'

These are just some of the many OT passages that clearly show that these covenants and promises made with Abraham were to his son Isaac and passed on to Jacob and his children.

Now let's see if this carries over to the NT.

We start off in Luke 1:67 where John the Immerser's father Zacharias, filled with the Holy Spirit said “Blessed be Yahweh God of Israel; for He has visited and redeemed His people”.

This was prophesied in Isaiah 43:1, where we know 'His people' is 'O Jacob, O Israel'. So we know the people who were redeemed are Israelites. Not Gentiles, not Jews, not 'churches', and not strangers.

The NT is the fulfilling of OT prophecies. They are not two separate books, the first half of Jews and the second half of some 'church'.

The Bible is about BC Israelites in the OT and prophecies, and AD Israelites in the NT and the fulfilling of the OT prophecies.

If you read verse 72 you will see that the first advent was to 'redeem us from our enemies, perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember His holy covenant; the oath which He sware to our father Abraham.' Yahweh didn't forget about the covenant with our ancestors, as He promised in Leviticus 26:42.

But most of our people did, and the 'churches' even changed them to include any and everyone.

Jeremiah chapter 31 details the new covenant Yahweh will make with the houses of Israel and Judah after those days, those days being the first advent. This prophecy was fulfilled in Matthew chapter 26 at the last supper. The law written upon our hearts, which is why the Levitical sacrificial and ceremonial ordinances were 'done away with'. Not the law.

Jeremiah 32:39 ​​ And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear (revere) Me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:

Joel and Ezekiel also prophesied of this new heart and spirit.

Ezekiel 20:37 speaks of the bringing of our NT ancestors into the bond of the New Covenant.

The difference between the old and new covenant is the whole of the Levitical ordinances which were 'added' to the law, because of sin, had expired. No more blood sacrifices, no more priests as mediators, no more need to perform rituals and adult circumcision to be saved. But the laws, commandments, statutes, and judgments still stand. They are God's standard for mortal life and government.

We see in Acts 3:25 Peter addresses the crowd as 'the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, 'And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.'

This is a quote from Genesis 12:3 which reads “And in you all the kindred peoples of the soil shall be blessed.”

Notice words like 'kindred, families, brethren, fathers'. These are all genetic identifiers.

In Acts 26:6-7 Paul speaks of 'the promise made of God unto our fathers, unto our twelve tribes.'

The promise of this seed can be traced from Gen 3:15, 22:18, and 26:4.

The theme never changes, just like Yahweh never changes. Abraham's seed cannot be 'spiritualized'.

In Romans Paul speaks of the faith of Abraham, our father, as pertaining to the flesh. Another statement of literal flesh and not 'spiritual' flesh.

Paul also explains that the inheritance is not by the law; but God gave it by promise, to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all.

All people in the world? No, Paul was speaking to Israelites, the children of Abraham.

Paul explains in Romans 9 that not everyone that is dwelling with Israel is of Israel. Speaking of the children of Esau, the Edomite Jews, which had been living in Judaea with the Israelites for a while just before the time of Yahshua Christ. This is also speaking of the children of Ishmael. So Paul goes on to explain that even though Ishmael was Abraham's son, and Esau was Abraham's grandson, “In Isaac shall thy seed be called.”

He explains in verse 8 and in Galatians 4 that Abraham's sons through Hagar and Keturah are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. Isaac's children through Jacob are the promised seed.

If the Ishmaelites and Keturites could not be part of the covenants and promises, then how can the 'churches' and Gentiles claim to be?

We see in Galatians 3 Paul saying that no man can change the covenants. Only the 'churches' can!

Which is why they just can't understand verse 16.

Galatians 3:16 ​​ Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your seed, which is Christ (Anointed).

The Greek is much clearer:

16 ​​ Now to Abraham the promises have been spoken, and to his offspring. It does not say “and to offsprings”, as of many; but as of one: “and to your offspring.” which are anointed.

'Christ' is not always referring to Jesus. Christ means 'anointed'. Called out, set apart.

Some examples are: 1 Sam 2:10,35, 1Chr 16:22, Psalms 2:2,9, Heb 11:24-26, Lam 4:20, Hab 3:13.

Abraham's seed was 'called out', anointed. Chosen over ALL the other nations of the world.

Seed is defined as offspring, posterity. Kind after kind. Sperm, as the “churches” teach, cannot be spiritualized. Those NOT of the race of Abraham can't become the seed of Abraham. That's just silly.

​​ 3:17 ​​ And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

Where is the part, in the OT or NT, where it says the covenant is disannulled and strangers, Gentiles, and the 'churches' are added to it?

I can keep going but you can look at the study on 'Covenants and Promises'. You won't find anywhere in any verse that strangers, Gentiles, and 'churches' are added to the covenants.

Even the Mosaic covenant is with the children of Israel. The laws were given to Israel. Israel broke the law and covenant, was divorced and sent into captivity and left to wander in darkness, which is why we needed to be redeemed. The other races are not part of any of this heritage which is ours. It's a family heirloom, not a 'spiritual' club where all you have to do is 'just believe', claim you are 'saved' and then wait for a rapture.

Christianity is not a religion. It is a heritage. It is a household of a special, set-apart, holy, peculiar, chosen people, from Genesis to Revelation. Anyone else in the context is either robbing, spoiling, plundering, taking captive, or slaying our ancestors, and we today.

Even in Ephesians 2:12 we can see Paul telling these Ephesian who were mostly Dorian Greeks and Roman Israelites of the tribe of Judah, as well as Phoenicians, Ionian Greeks, and other branches of the dispersed Nations of Israel, that at one time they were without Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers, or estranged, from the covenants of promise.

In their wanderings they had forgotten who they were and Whose they were. They were 'lost' sheep. The ones Jesus wanted the Gospel sent to. Many of their descendants are in the 'churches' today where they have been deceived and brainwashed into believing lies. Didn't Jesus and John both say that the whole world would be deceived, save the elect?

The elect are not in the 'churches', they've come up out of them.

​​ 

Hebrews chapter 8 explains the two covenants as well. That both covenants are with the same people Israel. Paul then quotes Jeremiah 31:33. He repeats this new covenant again in Hebrews 10. Most people do not see the warning of 'trodding under foot the covenant and count it an unholy thing', or even racist, 'insults the Spirit of grace'.

Hebrew 13 speaks of the great shepherd of the sheep who quickens through the blood of the everlasting covenant. The same sheep to whom He was sent. The lost sheep of the house of Israel. The only people in all of Scripture called sheep. Are there 'spiritual' sheep too? If there are, they follow Baa'aaa'zlebub.

Peter speaks of the promise that the seed of Jacob shall remain when the new heavens and earth appear. Notice it says the 'seed' of Jacob will remain. Looks like all the 'spiritual' Israelites will be on the rapture plane on their way to the Judeo suburbs in the clouds somewhere. They don't understand that the kingdom is here on earth.

Now we must briefly cover what 'holy' means.

Holy in the OT Hebrew is H6944 qodesh, a noun, and means apartness, sacredness, separateness, dedicated consecrated, sanctity. It mainly means set-apart.

H6942 qadash is the verb, meaning to be set-apart, consecrate, sanctify, dedicate, separate.

Yahweh instructed our Israelite ancestors to qadash themselves and be qodesh in Leviticus 20:7.

Leviticus 20:7 ​​ Sanctify (qadash) yourselves therefore, and be ye holy (qodesh): for I am Yahweh your God.

In the NT Greek, holy is G40 hagios, a noun, and means a holy one, or thing, a saint, sacred, consecrated, morally blameless.

1Peter 1:15 But as He which hath called you is holy (hagios), so be ye holy (hagios) in all manner of conversation;

1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy (hagios); for I am holy (hagios).

What do these 3 verses in Leviticus and 1Peter have in common? The context is obedience to God's laws. When we walk in The Way, we are holy. We are set-apart from the world, from sinners, and from sin.

The phrase 'be holy' is used 41 times.

We shall be holy men unto Yahweh with laws of social justice. Exo 22:31

The OT priests and anointing oil, incense, tabernacle, and all its vessels and offerings were to be holy. Exo 29:37, 30:29,32, 40:9, Lev 6:18,27.

We are holy when we are following God's food laws. The unclean animals are still the vacuum cleaners of the earth and waters and are not fit to eat. The unbelievers and the other races eat unclean animals. When we do not eat unclean animals, then we are set-apart from the heathen. Lev 11:44.

In Leviticus 19 we see Yahweh instruct Moses to speak to the children of Israel and tell them to be holy, for He is holy. Again, the holiness comes from obedience to God's commandments as you see in that chapter.

In Leviticus 20:26 following the commandment to keep all of God's statutes and judgments in the land whither He brings us, that it spue us not out, we see that our holiness is also our being separate from other people not of our racial family. Why?

Leviticus 20:26 And ye shall be holy unto Me: for I Yahweh am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be Mine.

The other races do not have the same traditions, morals, values, and ideals as we Israelites do. They don't have the law written on their hearts. They were not given the law and were not ordained to be the light of the world. This is easily observed in the differences between our people and the rest of the world.

Following more instructions in Numbers 15:40 we see Yahweh remind our ancestors “That you may remember, and do all My commandments, and be holy unto your God.”

Unless you are following His Way, you are not set-apart and holy.

In Deuteronomy 23:14 we see that our God walks in the midst of our camp, to deliver us from our enemies; therefore our camp shall be holy. We are to bury our poop. Sanitation is something our people do naturally. The other races do not have this holiness in them, which is why we are set-apart from them. Have you ever been to the 3rd world countries, or even NYC or Michigan?

In Romans 11:16 Paul is speaking of the 'lost' Israelites who were descendants of the cast off BC Israelites being reconciled back into the Olive tree. The olive tree is symbolic of the united houses of Israel and Judah. The firstfruit is holy, which is Yahshua Christ. The lump is also holy, which is the called seed of Isaac, Jacob and his 12 sons. The root of Jesse, and the branches are all the descendants of Jacob Israel. God separated Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, from the rest of mankind.

We see in Amos 3:2 that we children of Israel are the only family of all the families of the earth that Yahweh has known: there for He will punish us for all our iniquities. Why only us? Because only we were given the law, only we were chosen by God. We are His special, peculiar, set-apart people in whom He made all these promises and covenants with. Which is why when we follow The Way we are holy.

Ephesians 1 is addressed to the saints, which is G40 hagios, which means holy, set-apart. This can only be Israelites as the seed of Isaac is the 'called'. We have been chosen before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy before our Father.

Finally, in Revelation 22 we see that those who rebel, let them rebel, for they are unholy. Those that be righteous, are holy, and set-apart from unrighteousness, let them be righteous still, and holy still.

We see that those who are unholy are doomed to slaughter.

We can either follow the ways of the world, or we can follow Yahweh's Way. One way is unholy and the other way holy. How can you be holy and set-apart if you are not following Yahweh's Way?

If you are eating unclean animals, if you are worshiping some other God or a Jewish Jesus, if you are buying and selling and working on the sabbath, if you are dishonoring your parents, if you are a murderer, or hate your brother without a cause, if you are an adulterer or fornicator, a thief and extortioner, or bear false witness, or are covetous, a drunkard, or a race-mixer, if you have pleasure in unrighteousness and in them that do unrighteousness, then you are not set-apart and holy and shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

We are told over and over in Scripture to be separate from the unbelievers of our own race, and the other peoples not of our race.

This doesn't mean we hate them. It simply means we are to be separate from them, in every way.

Make no covenants with them, nor with their gods.

Give not your daughters unto their sons, neither take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their peace or their wealth for ever.

Why?

Because God wants pure-blooded children. Kind after kind. He does not want the holy seed to mingle with the people of other races. He does not want strange slips, degenerate vines, bastards, and broken cisterns.

God gave we Israelites a purpose and duty which He did not give to anyone else.

He does not want us to fellowship with non-believers, aliens, and reprobates. We are not to cast our pearls before swine, or give that which is holy unto the dogs. Dogs are symbolic of the other races and non-Christians, and swine is symbolic of ungodly people. The dogs, swine, foxes, serpents, dragons, birds, insects of Joel, the flood from the serpents mouth, are all symbolic of the other races and the Jews.

The sheep are always Israelites and none other.

The NT constantly reminds us not to fellowship with unbelievers and the unrighteous. And don't forget Deuteronomy 23:2 which states that non-Israelites shall not enter into the congregation of Yahweh, ever.

We are a separate and holy people unto God.

The other races cannot be part of our fellowship, heritage, family, covenants, promises, inheritance, and destiny.

They can imitate our morals and values, and even benefit by following our civil laws, but they cannot be Christians, 'spiritual' Israelites, or members of the body. They cannot partake of that which was promised and covenanted with our family.

If they could, then what does holy, set-apart, peculiar, chosen, special, above all other people, mean?

Jesus Christ told the Canaanite woman she was a dog and that it was not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs. She agreed, but still begged Him to heal her daughter. She knew that even the dogs can receive of the crumbs which fall from the Master's table. Jesus did not grant her and her daughter eternal life, or said they were now 'spiritual' Israelites. He stated at least 4 times who He came for. The children of Israel.

Now, after that lengthy intro, let's get into these words.

Genesis 12:1 ​​ Now Yahweh had said unto Abram, Get you out of your country, and from your kindred (H4138), and from your father's house, unto a land that I will shew you:

​​ 12:2 ​​ And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great (honored); and you shalt be a blessing:

​​ 12:3 ​​ And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curseth you: and in you shall all families (H4940) of the earth (land) be blessed.

The Hebrew is more specific: “I will bless your blessers, and curse your cursers: and in you shall all your kindred people of the soil be blessed.”

Abraham's native land of his birth was Ur of the Chaldees. Abraham's father Terah and his family went forth from Ur of the Chaldees north and slightly west to Haran and dwelt there.

Abraham's father Terah was an idol worshiper, as were most of peoples in the land of Shinar.

Yahweh told Abraham to get out of the land of his nativity, from his kindred, and from his father's house.

Kindred is H4138 moledeth, and means kindred, relatives, offspring, and family.

Why would God want Abraham to leave his own kindred?

Because they were idolaters.

Abraham walked with God from the very early age of 3 (according to the Book of Jasher), and he went in the ways of Yahweh until the day of his death. Abraham obeyed the voice of Yahweh, and was blessed for it.

Hebrews 11:8 ​​ By faith (allegiance) Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

Genesis 12:3 is very specific about which families will be blessed by blessing Abraham.

Families is H4940 mishpachah, and means clan, family, tribe, people, nation, circle of relatives, kindred.

Abraham and his wife Sarah, Lot, and all they had came into the land of Canaan.

Genesis 12:10 ​​ And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn (H1481- gur-to temporarily reside) there; for the famine was grievous in the land.

Sojourn is H1481 gur, a verb, and means to abide, to dwell for a time, to remain, to inhabit.

To stay as a temporary resident.

Not to dwell there permanently, but only until the famine was over.

Chapter 15 is the covenant with Abraham.

Yahweh promised to give to Abraham's offspring the land of Canaan. Yahweh promised that his children would be numbered as the stars of the sky.

Even before Abraham and Sarah gave birth to Isaac, Yahweh promised all this.

Romans 4:3 ​​ For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. ​​ 

Genesis 15:13 ​​ And He said unto Abram, Know of a surety that your seed shall be a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;  ​​​​ (Exo 1:1-14)

​​ 15:14 ​​ And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge (execute judgment upon): and afterward shall they come out with great substance (possessions).  ​​​​ (Exo 12:40-41, Acts 7:7)

Stranger in verse 13 is H1616 ger, which is a sojourner. In Scripture, usually a sojourning kinsman.

A person of one’s own blood or race who is visiting in the district and is not known to the residents of the area.

The Israelites were not slaves for 400 years. Jacob and his family arrived in Egypt when he was 130. So the time the Israelites spent in Egypt was only about 215 years.

They lived prosperously in Egypt for about 116 years.

The enslavement started sometime after the death of Joseph, and was only about 80-100 years.

Moses was the son of Amram the son of Kohath the son of Levi. Moses was a 3rd generation Levite. Three generations does not cover 400 years.

The call and covenant of Abraham to the Exodus was 430 years.

The KJV leaves out “and in the land of Canaan” where the Septuagint has “while they sojourned in the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan”.

Josephus states in Antiquities of the Judahites 2.15.2 that 'The Israelites left Egypt; four hundred thirty years after our fore-father Abraham came into Canaan. But two hundred and fifteen years only after Jacob removed into Egypt.'

Stranger is H1616, ger, a noun, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Egypt was the land of Ham, Abraham was a descendant of Shem, Ham's brother.

When the pharaoh that knew not Joseph arose as the new king in Egypt, they conspired to enslave the children of Israel. This pharaoh and his people were Hyksos Canaanites and a very cruel people.

Yahweh tells Abraham of the future captivity of his great grandchildren in Egypt, and the terrible judgments which will come upon the Egyptians. The seed of Ham (Egyptians) had forgotten the righteousness of Noah and were worshiping pagan gods and race mixing with the Canaanite peoples of the land. Those non-Hebrew, non-Israelite peoples of the land were the Kenites (descendants of Cain), Kenizzites (nomadic hunters descended of Cain's sons), Kadmonites (serpent worshipers), Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaims (giants), Amorites (descendants of fallen angels and Canaan's descendants), Canaanites (Canaan's incestuous descendants), Girgashites (Canaanite nomads), and the Jebusites (another hybrid tribe of Canaan).

These are the 10 nations of the Kenites, the descendants of Cain. All of which are hybrid tribes. They all consisted of the sons of Cain, the incestuous sons of Canaan, giants and fallen angels. They are all generally referred to as the Canaanite nations. They are all cursed seed tribes. But maybe if they believe they can become 'spiritual' Israelites.

Chapter 17 is the Covenant of Circumcision.

Genesis 17:4 ​​ As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shalt be a father (the forefather) of many nations (H1471- goyim).

Forefather is H1 ab, meaning head or founder of a household, group, family or clan. Ancestor. Originator.

Nations is H1471 goyim, and means people.

The many nations are the nations that came from the 12 tribes of Jacob, whose forefather was Abraham.

Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and his 12 sons and their descendants are not the fathers of any other race of people but Israelites.

​​ 17:7 ​​ And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your seed after you in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto you, and to your seed after you.

Galatians 3:17 ​​ And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after (the call of Abraham), cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

​​ 17:8 ​​ And I will give unto you, and to your seed after you, the land wherein you art a stranger (H4033- magur magur-land of pilgrimage)(land of sojourning), all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.

​​ 17:9 ​​ And God said unto Abraham, You shalt keep My covenant therefore, you, and your seed after you in their generations.

In verse 8, stranger is H4033 magur magur, a noun, and means a sojourning place, dwelling-place, a temporary abode; by extension a permanent residence:- dwelling, pilgrimage.

The land of Canaan was not Abraham's native land, so he and his seed after him were pilgrims and foreigners in the land.

​​ 17:10 ​​ This is My covenant, which ye shall keep, between Me and you and your seed after you; Every man child among you shall be circumcised. ​​ 

​​ 17:11 ​​ And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token (sign) of the covenant betwixt Me and you.

​​ 17:12 ​​ And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations (H1755), he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger (H5236- nekar)(and H1121) (sons of a foreigner), which is not of your seed.

​​ 17:13 ​​ He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with your money, must needs be circumcised: and My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

​​ 17:14 ​​ And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people (H5971-am); he hath broken My covenant.

​​ 17:27 ​​ And all the men of his house, born in the house, and bought with money of the stranger (H5236- nekar)(and H1121)(sons of the foreigner), were circumcised with him.

Stranger ​​ in verses 12 and 27 is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien.

Its related word is H5234 nakar, a verb, and means to scrutinize (with recognition implied), to acknowledge, be acquainted with, care for, respect, revere. (With suspicion implied), to disregard, ignore, be strange toward, reject, dissimulate.

Nekar in verses 12 and 27 are sons of those who are not of the seed of Abraham.

These would be either ½ caste Hebrews, or kindred from the other tribes of the sons of Adam or Noah. The Genesis chapter 10 nations which sprung from Noah's sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

Japheth's sons were those tribes that settled Armenia, Russia, Persia, Greece, Hungaria and Romania, Turkey, Poland, Spain, and Czechoslovakia.

Ham's sons were the Egyptians. Some settled Arabia and Ethiopia, North Africa and Sheba.

Shem's sons were the progenitors of the Assyrians, the Chaldeans, Aramaeans and Syrians, Indo-Europeans, the southern Arabian tribes, the Hebrews, and we Israelites.

These were all pure-blooded Adamic peoples descended from the sons of Adam.

At this point in Genesis, the Israelites were not born yet, so anyone on this list besides Hebrews would qualify for being the stranger, or the nekar, of verses 12 and 27. They weren't Hebrews, but they were racial kinsmen not of Abraham's posterity.

Abraham would not have purchased any of the Canaanite tribes as slaves and circumcise them according to the covenant God made with Abraham and his kindred.

The steward of his house was Eliezer of Damascus, a Syrian and related kindred by race.

The Syrians were descendants of Shem, Noah's son, as also are we Israelites. Shem had five sons. The Syrians are not Israelites because they are sons of Aram. We are through the line of Arphaxad.

The covenant, the definitions and references to Abraham and his flesh all imply related kindreds are under the covenant of circumcision.

The wording of verses 12 and 17 implies the circumcision of non-kindred people, but if you pay attention to the context, it is speaking of the circumcision of anyone related to Abraham by race, regardless of being bought by those not related to Abraham by race.

The 'churches' try to separate a physical seed from a spiritual seed.

There is not such thing as 'spiritual seed'. Seed in Hebrew is H2233 zera, and means semen, offspring, descendants, posterity, children. Seed in Greek is G4690 sperma, which means male sperm, issue, offspring. Also from which a plant germinates.

So can we be spiritual plants and animals too?

In Bible symbolism, 'seed' is used as a multiple symbol, dependent upon context.

It can mean one's progeny or descendants. It is symbolic of Israelites and we are shown to be the 'good seed' which brings forth abundantly. And it is symbolic of the Word of God. Jesus explains this meaning in the parable of the sower.

Chapter 19 is about Sodom, Lot, and his daughters.

There were two divine messengers that came to Sodom and when Lot saw them he pressed them to tarry at his house. Shortly after they ate, the sodomites of Sodom demanded Lot to bring them out so they could know them sexually. Lot begged them not to do so wickedly.

Genesis 19:9 ​​ And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn (H1481- gur-to dwell, to live here), and he thinks he is a judge: now will we deal worse with you, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.

We all know what happened next. The messengers blinded the sodomites outside, Lot had a chance to warn his relatives in the city who only mocked him, and the next morning the messengers brought forth Lot, his wife, and their two daughters outside the city as fire and brimstone destroyed Sodom and everyone in it from existence.

Sojourn is H1481 gur, is a verb, and means to abide, to dwell for a time.

Genesis 20:1 ​​ And Abraham journeyed from thence (the plain of Mamre) toward the south country, and dwelled (H3427- yashab-to dwell, remained, settled) between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned (H1481- gur-stayed) in Gerar (H1642) (land of the Philistines).

The south country was the region that Judah would later inherit.

Dwelled is H3427 yashab, a verb, and means to dwell, remain, abide, to tarry.

Sojourned is H1481 gur, a verb, and means to stay as a temporary resident.

Gerar is H1642 gerar, a noun locative. Gerar was a Philistine town south of Gaza. Gerar means 'a lodging place', hence the verb gur, which means to sojourn. Very similar to the noun ger, which means a sojourner.

Begin Part 2 of the audio presentation here  ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​ ​​​​ 

Abraham and all belonging to him came to Hebron, and the servants of Abraham dug wells of water and they all dwelt by the water. Abimelech's servants heard that Abraham's servants had dug wells and came to rob them of the great well which they had dug.

Genesis 21:22 ​​ And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God is with you in all that you doest:

​​ 21:23 ​​ Now therefore swear unto me here by God that you wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son: but according to the kindness (good deed, righteousness) that I have done unto you, you shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein you hast sojourned (H1481- gur-dwelt as a temporary resident).

​​ 21:24 ​​ And Abraham said, I will swear.

Abraham had previously been granted permission to dwell in Abimelech's land because he had taken Sarah Abraham's wife and Yahweh God visited Abimelech in a dream and warned him not to do this, and Yahweh's messenger inflicted plagues on Abimelech's servants and family. Abimelech wisely listened and returned Sarah to Abraham and also gave them sheep, oxen, and men and women servants. And Abraham prayed unto God to heal Abimelech and his people.

It is evident that Abimelech was an Adamite, a distant kinsman of Abraham's because not only did God visit him in a dream, but Abimelech asked Yahweh if He would slay a righteous nation. Yahweh mentioned the integrity of Abimelech's heart and that He also withheld him from sinning against Him.

After Abraham and Abimelech made a covenant at Beersheba, Abimelech returned into the land of the Philistines, then...

Genesis 21:33 ​​ And Abraham planted a grove (tamarisk trees) in Beersheba, and called there on the name of Yahweh, the everlasting God.

​​ 21:34 ​​ And Abraham sojourned (H1481- gur) in the Philistines' land many days.

The Philistines were descendants of Ham. Kinsmen to the Hebrews.

We see in the book of Jasher that Abraham was very hospitable to travelers and sojourners.

Jasher 22:11-15

11 And Abraham planted a large grove in Beersheba, and he made to it four gates facing the four sides of the land, and he planted a vineyard in it, so that if a traveler came to Abraham he entered any gate which was in his road, and remained there and ate and drank and satisfied himself and then departed.

12 For the house of Abraham was always open to the sons of Adam that passed and repassed, who came daily to eat and drink in the house of Abraham.

13 And any man who had hunger and came to Abraham's house, Abraham would give him bread that he might eat and drink and be satisfied, and any one that came naked to his house he would clothe with garments as he might choose, and give him silver and gold and make known to him Yahweh who had created him in the land; this did Abraham all his life.

Matthew 25:34 ​​ Then shall the King say unto them on His right hand, Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

25:35 ​​ For I was an hungred, and ye gave Me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took Me in:

25:36 ​​ Naked, and ye clothed Me: I was sick, and ye visited Me: I was in prison, and ye came unto Me.

25:37 ​​ Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Master, when saw we You an hungred, and fed You? or thirsty, and gave You drink?

25:38 ​​ When saw we You a stranger, and took You in? or naked, and clothed You?

25:39 ​​ Or when saw we You sick, or in prison, and came unto You?

25:40 ​​ And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done it unto Me.

If you pay attention to the language, the definitions, the meaning and the theme, you will see that the context in scripture is brethren, kinsmen, family, descendants, and generations. All these are clues and markers that show these verses and the message of scripture to be exclusive to the family. Brethren is G80 adelphos, which means of the same womb, of the same national ancestry. Can wombs and your national ancestry be 'spiritualized' now?

Sarah dies in Hebron in the land of Canaan.

Abraham spake unto the sons of Heth, saying...

Genesis 23:4 ​​ I am a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) and a sojourner (H8453- toshab/parepidemos- a guest) with (among) you: give me a possession of a buryingplace with (among) you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight (out of my presence).

Heth was Canaan's second son.

​​ 23:5 ​​ And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto him,

​​ 23:6 ​​ Hear us, my lord: you art a mighty prince among us: in the choice of our sepulchres bury your dead; none of us shall withhold from you his sepulchre, but that you mayest bury your dead.

​​ 23:7 ​​ And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth.

Abraham is a Hebrew. The children of Heth are Canaanites. Abraham is dwelling in the land of the Canaanites and is a sojourner and sojourning among them.

In verse 4, sojourner is H8453 toshab, a noun, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

Not a native of the place, but only dwelt as a sojourner among them for a time.

Chapter 26 is about Isaac and Abimelech II, the son of Abimelech.

There was a famine in the land and Yahweh told Isaac not to go down into Egypt but to go unto Gerar.

Genesis 26:3 ​​ (Yahweh speaking) Sojourn (H1481- gur-Dwell) in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you; for unto you, and unto your seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham your father;

​​ 26:4 ​​ And I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven (the sky), and will give unto your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth (land) be blessed;

​​ 26:5 ​​ Because that Abraham obeyed My voice, and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.

Sojourn is H1481 gur, and means to abide, to dwell, to stay as a temporary resident.

Genesis 28:1 ​​ And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, and said unto him, You shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.

​​ 28:2 ​​ Arise, go to Padanaram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father; and take you a wife from thence of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.

​​ 28:3 ​​ And God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you mayest be a multitude of people;

Not a multitude of races, but of tribes, of nations, which eventually became the White nations of the world today.

The 'multitude of people' is H6951 qahal, and H5971 am, which means an assembly or congregation of called people of the same kindred.

​​ 28:4 ​​ And give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your seed with you; that you mayest inherit the land wherein you art a stranger (H4033- magur magur-pilgrim)(sojourner), which God gave unto Abraham.

The Abrahamic Covenant is being passed down through Isaac to Jacob.

The godly fathers were continually reminded that they were but strangers and pilgrims in this world: so that they would lift up their eyes to the heavens where they have a certain dwelling.

Hebrews 11:13 ​​ These all died in belief, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

Stranger in verse 4 is H4033 magur magur, a noun and means a sojourning place, a dwelling-place, a sojourner or a pilgrim.

Chapter 31 details the episode between Laban and Jacob.

Laban has been taking advantage of Jacob and Yahweh told Jacob to return to the land of his fathers.

Genesis 31:14 ​​ And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?

​​ 31:15 ​​ Are we not counted of him strangers (H5237- nokriy-foreign ones)? for he hath sold us, and hath quite devoured also our money.

​​ 31:16 ​​ For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that is ours, and our children's: now then, whatsoever God hath said unto you, do.

​​ 31:17 ​​ Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon camels;

​​ 31:18 ​​ And he carried away all his cattle (livestock), and all his goods which he had gotten, the cattle (livestock) of his getting, which he had gotten in Padanaram, for to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.

In verse 15, strangers is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

His daughters felt like non-relatives. For they were given to Jacob as payment for his service, which was a kind of sale. They were not treated as children; but as if they were bought of others or born bondmaids in his house, and so had right to sell them as he had.

Jacob continues on his way to his father's house with his family and all he had.

Genesis 32:3 ​​ And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

​​ 32:4 ​​ And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak unto my lord Esau; Your servant Jacob saith thus, I have sojourned (H1481- gur-dwelt as a temporary resident) with Laban, and stayed there until now:

​​ 32:5 ​​ And I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and menservants, and womenservants: and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find grace (favor) in your sight.

Jacob feared his brother Esau and prayed to Yahweh to deliver him from the hands of his brother. Yahweh put fear and kindness toward Jacob in Esau and the men with him and everything went smoothly. Jacob gave Esau presents, gold, silver and bdellium and cattle. Esau returned to Seir and Jacob and his family continued their journey to Succoth.

Jacob returns to Bethel

Genesis 35:1 ​​ And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there: and make there an altar unto God, that appeared unto you when you fleddest from the face of Esau your brother.

​​ 35:2 ​​ Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange (H5236- nekar-foreign) gods (gods of the foreigner) that are among you, and be clean (purified), and change your garments:

​​ 35:3 ​​ And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.

​​ 35:4 ​​ And they gave unto Jacob all the strange (H5236- nekar-foreign) gods (gods of the foreigner) which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.

​​ 35:5 ​​ And they journeyed: and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.

In verses 2 and 4, strange is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien.

In this case, foreign gods. The gods of the stranger. It should read 'the gods of the stranger, or the gods of the foreigner.'

Any idols in the hands of Jacob's sons or of his servants were buried and left behind.

​​ 35:27 ​​ And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, unto the city of Arbah, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned (H1481- gur-dwelt). ​​ 

Genesis 36:6 ​​ And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle (livestock), and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face (presence) of his brother Jacob.

​​ 36:7 ​​ For their riches were more than that they might dwell (H3427- yashab) together; and the land wherein they were strangers (H4033- magur magur-pilgrims) could not bear them because of their cattle (livestock).

​​ 36:8 ​​ Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

Strangers is H4033, magur magur, a noun, and means a sojourning place, dwelling-place, pilgrims.

Note: Esau is Edom. “Edom is in modern Jewry.” —The Jewish Encyclopedia, 1925 edition, Vol.5, p.41

“No one can deny that the Jews are a most unique and unusual people. That uniqueness exists because of their Edomite heritage. You cannot be English Jews. We are a race, and only as a race can we perpetuate. Our mentality is of Edomitish character, and differs from that of an Englishman. Enough subterfuges! Let us assert openly that we are International Jews.”—Manifesto of the “World Jewish Federation,” January 1, 1935, through its spokesperson, Gerald Soman

Genesis 37:1 ​​ And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger (H4033- magur magur-pilgrim), in the land of Canaan.

The Hebrew reads: 'And Jacob dwelt in the land of his father's sojournings, in the land of Canaan.'

Joseph presents a few of his brothers to Pharaoh.

Genesis 47:3 ​​ And Pharaoh said unto his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh, Your servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers.

​​ 47:4 ​​ They said moreover unto Pharaoh, For to sojourn (H1481- gur-dwell, to continue for a little time) in the land are we come; for your servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray you, let your servants dwell (H3427- yashab- settle, abide) in the land of Goshen.

​​ 47:5 ​​ And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Your father and your brethren are come unto you:

​​ 47:6 ​​ The land of Egypt is before you; in the best of the land make your father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if you knowest any men of activity among them, then make them rulers (keepers) over my cattle (livestock).

Activity is chayil, meaning valor, strength, martial skill. Livestock was in peril from beasts and thieves. The word cattle in the KJV is used generically, it means livestock of all sorts.

​​ 47:7 ​​ And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

​​ 47:8 ​​ And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old art you?

​​ 47:9 ​​ And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage (H4033- magur magur) are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage (H4033- magur magur).

The Geneva also has 'pilgrimage'. Pilgrimage is H4033 magur magur.

In Genesis we saw 5 different Hebrew words for strangers and sojourners.

Ger, a noun, used 2x, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Instead of 'strangers' it should read 'sojourners'.

Magur, a noun, used 6x, and means a sojourning place, dwelling-place, pilgrims.

Instead of 'stranger(s)' it should read 'land (or days) of your pilgrimage'.

Nekar, a noun, used 4x, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Instead of 'stranger' and 'strange gods' it should read 'sons of a foreigner', ​​ and 'gods of the foreigner'.

Nokriy, an adjective, used 1x, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

Instead of 'strangers' it should read 'foreign ones'.

Toshab, a noun, used 1x, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

Instead of 'sojourner' it should read 'guest'.

The KJperVersion and other versions generalizes words and the average reader is not aware of this. Sometimes there are many other Hebrew words that have deeper meanings, or are more descriptive, or even a totally different word and meaning than you think the English word means. Sometimes there are 7 Hebrew words that are all generalized into one English word. Sometimes there are over 20 Hebrew words that are generalized into one or two English words.

For example:

Earth doesn't always mean the whole earth, rather it means the land, a particular region.

Christ doesn't always refer to Jesus Yahshua, rather it is referring to the people, the Anointed group, the congregation of true Christian Anglo-Saxon Israelites who knows who we are and Whose we are.

World, which doesn't always mean the whole world, but rather the world system, the Society, and it also means an age.

We will see as we proceed through this study that there is a whole lot of truth and proper message being lost in translation. With some closer examination we can see and understand more of what is actually going on.

Jasher 78:7 In those days Moses, the son of Amram, in Midian, took Zipporah, the daughter of Reuel the Midianite, for a wife.

8 And Zipporah walked in the ways of the daughters of Jacob, she was nothing short of the righteousness of Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel and Leah.

Exodus 2:22 ​​ And she bare him a son, and he (Moses) called his name Gershom (H1648): for he said, I have been a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) in a strange (H5237- nokriy-non Israelite, foreign) land. ​​ 

When Moses was in the land of Midian, that land was at the time controlled by the Hyksos Canaanite Egyptians. These Hyksos tribes overtook the Hamitic Egyptians, hence 'the pharaoh who knew not Joseph.'

Gershom is H1648 which means 'exile'.

Moses was a sojourner in a foreign land.

Webster's 1828 Dictionary

FOREIGN, a.

1. Belonging to another nation or country; alien; not of the country in which one resides; extraneous.

Did you notice the 'Ger' in Gershom?

Yahweh instructed Moses from the flaming bush to return into Egypt and bring out the children of Israel.

The king of Egypt at that time was a Hyksos Canaanite who oppressed the children of Israel and he had no intention of letting them go.

Exodus 3:20 ​​ (Yahweh speaking) And I will stretch out My hand, and smite Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go.

​​ 3:21 ​​ And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when you go, you shall not go empty: ​​ 

​​ 3:22 ​​ But every woman shall borrow (ask) of her neighbour (H7934- shaken- fellow citizen), and of her that sojourneth (H1481- gur-resides) in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and you shall put them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and you shall spoil the Egyptians. ​​ 

Neighbour H7453 and H5997 is a kinsman. Neighbour here in verse 22, H7934 is not necessarily a kinsman, but a fellow citizen.

In chapter 6, Yahweh reminds Moses that He appeared unto Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and that He has established His covenant with them, and He is about to bring them out from under the burdens and bondage of the Egyptians, and will redeem them and take them for His people to be their God.

Exodus 6:4 ​​ And I have also established My covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage (H4033- magur,magur), wherein they were strangers (H1481- gur-sojourned, dwelt).

KJV translated the verb H1481 gur into a noun, strangers. Gur is a verb. The Hebrew reads 'wherein they sojourned in her'.

Chapter 12 is the institution of the Passover and the Exodus begins.

Yahweh instructs Moses to reckon the beginning of the first month Abib as the Hebrew New Year. This usually occurs the day of the Spring Equinox. March 20th.

Yahweh instructs the congregation of Israel to select a lamb without blemish on the 10th day of the month and keep it up until the 14th day of the month and kill it in the evening, roast it with fire, and eat it and leave nothing left until the morning. This is symbolic of Jesus Christ's ascension in which nothing was left behind.

They were to strike the blood on their door posts and the angel of death would pass over their house as he destroyed the first-born of the Egyptians.

This day would be a memorial to keep as a feast by an ordinance for ever.

They were to put away leaven out of their homes and eat no leaven for 7 days.

Exodus 12:19 ​​ Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), or born (H249- ezrach-native) in the land.

​​ 12:20 ​​ Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all your habitations shall you eat unleavened bread.  ​​​​ (Ex 23:15, 34:18 ​​ Lev 23:6-8 ​​ Num 28:17-25 ​​ Deut 16:3-8)

The Passover is exclusively for the children of Israel and their racial kindred to observe. Passover is not for those outside the family.

Stranger is ger, a noun, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Born is ezrach, a noun, and means a native one, born in the land, of one's own country.

The context of ger and ezrach in verse 19 is identifying Israelites, both sojourning Israelites and Israelites born in the land. All Israelites are to observe the Passover.

The Passover is an Israelite tradition and holy day.

Deuteronomy 23:2 ​​ A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of Yahweh; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of Yahweh.

In the Old Testament there are Scriptures that certainly look as if they are saying that non-Israelite strangers could become circumcised, keep the Passover, the Laws of Moses and thus become as one born in the land. This is the matter which is being questioned.

Exodus 12:40 Now the sojourning (H4186 moshab) of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.

Septuagint: 40 And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt and the land of Chanaan, was four hundred and thirty years.

​​ 12:41 ​​ And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of Yahweh went out from the land of Egypt.

From the time Abraham moved into the land of Canaan, 430 years later the children of Israel came out of Egypt and received the law at Sinai.

​​ 12:42 ​​ It is a night to be much observed unto Yahweh for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of Yahweh to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations.

​​ 12:43 ​​ And Yahweh said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: There shall no stranger (H5236- nekar-son of the foreigner)(and H1121) eat thereof:

The Hebrew reads: “...There shall no son of a racial alien eat thereof”.

Stranger ​​ is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Nekar is a son of an unknown or a son of a foreign one. No nekar is to eat of it. The nekar was uncircumcised, so he couldn’t eat the Passover. He didn’t enjoy privileges of the native born Israelite or the sojourning Israelite proselyte.

​​ 12:44 ​​ But every man's servant (bondservant) that is bought for money, when you hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof.

This is not referring to a foreigner of another race. These are bond servants or indentured servants that are kinsmen to the Israelites. As we see in God's commands, circumcision is an Abrahamic covenant with his posterity, and this Passover was an ordinance for Israelites, and Deuteronomy 23:2 reiterates that no bastard shall enter into the congregation of Yahweh ever.

​​ 12:45 ​​ A foreigner (H8453- toshab-guest) and an hired servant (H7916) shall not eat thereof.

The toshab was an unnaturalized sojourner, a temporary dweller, or guest (not just a visitor). Unlike proselytes, he wasn’t fully a citizen in Israel’s community. The toshab was uncircumcised, and therefore not authorized to eat the Passover (unlike the proselyte).

Proselytes were circumcised Israelites that were once 'lost' and learned who they were, as this is their heritage too.

Hired servant is H7916 sakiyr is a man at wages by the day or year: - hired, hireling. Not the same as the bondservant.

​​ 12:46 ​​ In one house shall it be eaten; you shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall you break a bone thereof.

​​ 12:47 ​​ All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.

​​ 12:48 ​​ And when a stranger (H1616- ger-proselyte) shall sojourn (H1481- gur-dwell as a guest) with you, and will keep the passover to Yahweh, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born (H249- ezrach-native of) in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.

​​ 12:49 ​​ One law shall be to him that is homeborn (H249- ezrach-native), and unto the stranger (H1616- ger-proselyte sojourner) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-dwells as a guest) among you.  ​​​​ (Num 9:14 15:15-16)

Israelite sojourners from another land must observe the law when among you.

The Septuagint has 'proselyte' for H1616 ger in verses 48-49, which is converted kinsman.

Foreigners, unknowns, and non-Israelites are not permitted to eat the Passover.

The Passover is an Israelite tradition.

Exodus 18:1 ​​ When Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father in law, heard of all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people, and that Yahweh had brought Israel out of Egypt;

​​ 18:2 ​​ Then Jethro, Moses' father in law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her back,

​​ 18:3 ​​ And her two sons; of which the name of the one was Gershom; for he said, I have been an alien (H1616- ger, sojourner) in a strange (H5237- nokriy-non Israelite, foreign) land: (sojourner in a foreign land)

​​ 18:4 ​​ And the name of the other was Eliezer (God is my help); for the God of my father, said he, was mine help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh:

The name of Moses’ son Gershom commemorated Moses’ long temporary stay, a memorandum to this son of his, for we are all strangers upon earth.

Strange land is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

Jethro and Zipporah were not black, as the 'churches' teach. Yahweh does not accept race-mixing.

Black people were not living in any of these areas, and they were not even civilized at this point, or even spoke Hebrew.

Jethro is a title which means 'his excellence'. His name is Reuel. He lived in Midian. Midian was a son of Abraham through Keturah. Reuel was of Hebrew stock.

Chapter 20 is the 10 Commandments.

Exodus 20:8 ​​ (Commandment 4) Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy (set apart).  ​​​​ 

​​ 20:9 ​​ Six days shalt you labour, and do all your work:

​​ 20:10 ​​ But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yahweh your God: in it you shalt not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle (livestock), nor your stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) that is within your gates:  ​​​​ (Lev 23:3)

​​ 20:11 ​​ For in six days (ages) Yahweh made heaven (sky) and earth (land), the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Yahweh blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it (set it apart).  ​​​​ (Gen 2:1-3)

One law for the native born Israelite and the sojourning Israelite.

We need to cover adultery in more detail because part of this law has to do with race-mixing.

Exodus 20:14 ​​ (7) You shalt not commit adultery.

Adultery also includes race mixing. Destroying the holy seedline and purity of the race of awdawm. This part of the teaching of adultery is not taught today, because the enemy has distorted our scriptures to suit their diversity and universalism. Race mixing = the holy seed destroyed.

In the Latin Vulgate, Exodus 20:14 was translated as non moechaberis and Romans 13:9 as non adulterabis. The Latin word moechaberis is an inflected form of moechari, a transliteration of the Greek moicheuo, and is of little etymological importance since what it means is merely dependent upon what the Greek word means, which we will explore. However, what is important is adulterabis, an inflected form of the word adultero, since this is the Latin word most often used in the Vulgate and elsewhere to translate the Greek word moicheuo.

The Greek word ou and the Latin word non are simply negative particles, translated not. Thus, the words that we need to define in order to determine the correct translation of Exodus 20:14 and Romans 13:9 are the Greek word moicheuo and the Latin word adultero.

First, in order to define the word moicheuo, let us turn to a commonly used and commonly available dictionary, theTheological Dictionary of the New Testament, edited by Gerhard Kittel and translated into English by Geoffrey W. Bromiley. Now let us note that Kittel was a well-renowned German Greek scholar and is held in high-esteem by the scholarly community.

Under the entry word moicheuo, the following definition is given: “of the intermingling of animals and men or of different races.” [In the German original, Theologisches Wörterbuch zum Neuen Testament, we find the original words of Kittel: “auch von Vermischung von Tier und Mensch oder von Mischung verschiedener Rassen”].

This, of course, is the classical definition of mongrelization. So the Greek of the New Testament and the Greek Septuagint confirm that the translation “You will not mongrelize” is correct.

The same definition applies to the word 'fornication', which includes all illicit sex, and race-mixing.

Now it's important to understand who 'thy neighbor' is.

Between Exodus chapter 3 and 32, and Leviticus chapter 6 to 25, Deuteronomy chapters 4 through 27, and in Joshua 20, Ruth 4, and in the Kings and Chronicles, and the prophets, 'neighbour' is defined as a brother. An associate. A fellow-citizen. It's related word means to pasture, tend, graze, shepherd, of people as a flock.

In the NT, neighbor is G4139 plesion, and means a member of the Hebrew nation and commonwealth. It means near, close, friend, fellow, countryman.

In the Bible and in those days, the other races were not in the picture. There were no blacks, Asians, Mexicans, Eskimos and Chinamen living in or anywhere near the ancient lands of Scripture. Nor were these peoples civilized, nor were they able to read, write, or speak Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek.

The only peoples mentioned in Scripture are those of the race of Adam, which would be Shemites, Hebrews, Israelites, Greeks. The Syrians, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Macedonians, Persians were all Adamic kinsmen of Israel.

The other peoples not of the Adamic pure seedline mentioned in Scripture are those of the Canaanite tribes, Edomite tribes, and these cursed seed tribes had mingled with the other Adamic tribes.

The Arabs are mentioned because they sprung from Ishmael, but later had mixed themselves into the dark race of Arabs we know today.

It's important to understand that when Scripture uses the words 'all, every, and whosoever', in context, it always means Israelites, and not anyone and everyone.

Neighbor in scripture is H7453 rea/reya, and means brother. H5997 amiyth, means relation, kindred.

'Neighbour' was to be a 'brother', and we see this in Deuteronomy 15:2-3 where we are commanded to grant our 'neighbour-brothers' release from debts every seventh year. This doesn't apply to other races. In Leviticus 19:18 we are taught how to treat our 'neighbour-brothers'. In Zechariah 3:10 we see a vision of 'the refreshing of neighborliness under the vine and under the fig tree'. Vine is symbolic of Israelites, and fig tree is also symbolic of Israelites, namely the house of Judah, which were not neighbourly to their brothers of the 'lost' uncircumcised Israelites of the house of Israel that were scattered and thought of as common and profane, but through the Gospel, they learned that they were brothers of the same national ancestry and thus the wall of partition was broken down because the blood of Christ had reconciled both Israelites near and far into one tree again under the Renewed Covenant.

There are many more examples of what a neighbor is, and it's always referring to an Israelite kinsmen when in context of living and the laws.

Brother in the NT is G80 adelphos, and means of the same womb, of the same national ancestry.

Exodus 21:7 ​​ And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.

​​ 21:8 ​​ If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed (ransomed): to sell her unto a strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign) nation (H5971- am) he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.

​​ 21:9 ​​ And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.

​​ 21:10 ​​ If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.

If the master married her himself, and took another wife, all her rights of marriage were to be kept. Conjugal rights were included. Duty of marriage included sexual needs, and if he did not, and favored the new wife only, she was free of the marriage with no penalty.

​​ 21:11 ​​ And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.

Strange in verse 8 is nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

Nation is H5971 am, and means people.

A non-Israelite people in verse 8, a strange nation. You could not put an Israelite woman into a non-Israelite household.

'Then shall he let her be redeemed...'. By giving another money to buy her from him.

This was prohibited, because a non-Israelite would keep her for a perpetual servant, which the law-abiding Israelite would not do.

Exodus 22:21 ​​ You shalt neither vex (treat violently) a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), nor oppress him: for you were strangers (H1616- ger, sojourners) in the land of Egypt.  ​​​​ (Lev 19:33-34 ​​ Deut 24:17-18 27:19)

The remembrance of this should move their compassion to the sojourning kinsman, and would serve to abate their pride and vanity.

Exodus 23:9 ​​ Also you shalt not oppress a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner): for you know the heart of a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), seeing you were strangers (H1616- ger-sojourners) in the land of Egypt.

​​ 23:10 ​​ And six years you shalt sow your land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:

​​ 23:11 ​​ But the seventh year you shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of your people (H5971- am-kindred) may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner you shalt deal with your vineyard, and with your oliveyard.

​​ 23:12 ​​ Six days you shalt do your work, and on the seventh day you shalt rest: that your ox and your ass may rest, and the son of your handmaid, and the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), may be refreshed.

The context here is 'your people'. People in verse 11 is am, which in context means kindred. These laws and ordinances are given to Israelites and applies to sojourning kinsmen/women.

Chapter 29 is the consecrating of the Levitical priests. No foreigner of another race shall ever eat of those things. Zur is also those that are not of the seed of Aaron. Outside the Aaronic line.

Exodus 29:32 ​​ And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread that is in the basket, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting).

​​ 29:33 ​​ And they shall eat those things wherewith the atonement (propitiation) was made, to consecrate (be full of strength) and to sanctify (be set apart by) them: but a stranger (H2114- zur-an uncustomary one) shall not eat thereof, because they are holy.

Stranger here is zur. a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. ​​ Someone not of the seed of Aaron.

A better word is 'uncustomary'. The ordinances of the Priesthood were customary to the priests.

It could read: '...but one who is not of the sons of Aaron shall not eat of them, because they are set-apart.'

Or '...but an uncustomary one shall not eat of them, because they are set-apart.'

Chapter 30 is about offerings.

Exodus 30:7 ​​ And Aaron shall burn thereon (the altar of Acacia wood) sweet incense every morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.

​​ 30:8 ​​ And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before Yahweh throughout your generations.

​​ 30:9 ​​ Ye shall offer no strange (H2114- zur-alien, unusual, uncustomary) incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat (grain) offering; neither shall you pour drink offering thereon.

Strange in verse 9 is zur, to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Here it means uncustomary. Strange to the law or instructions of Yahweh.

3Maccabees 1:11 ​​ And when they told him (the king, either Ptolemy or Antiochus) that this was not permissible, none of the nation, no, nor even the priests in general, but only the supreme high priest of all, and he only once in a year, being allowed to go in, he would by no means give way.

The rules of the offering continue. Yahweh instructs Moses concerning the ordinances and vessels of the priesthood which only the sons of Aaron had charge over.

​​ 30:29 ​​ And you shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.

​​ 30:30 ​​ And you shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister unto Me in the priest's office.

​​ 30:31 ​​ And you shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, This shall be an holy anointing oil unto Me throughout your generations.

​​ 30:32 ​​ Upon man's (H120- adamic) flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall you make any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.

​​ 30:33 ​​ Whosoever compoundeth (blends) any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon a stranger (H2114- zur- an unaccustomed one), shall even be cut off from his people.

Stranger in verse 33 is zur. Strange to the ordinance of the law, one not of the seed of Aaron.

It should read '...upon an unaccustomed one,..' or '...upon one who is uncustomary,..'

Webster's 1828 Dictionary

ACCUS'TOMED, pp.

1. Being familiar by use; habituated; inured. Inured means to become beneficial or of advantage.

2. Usual; often practiced; as in their accustomed manner.

The Priesthood had certain duties. Anyone not of the lineage of Aaron was a zur, and therefore not permitted to partake of those things only the Aaronic priesthood were ordained.

In Exodus we saw 6 different Hebrew words for stranger.

Ger, a noun, used 12x, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Instead of 'strangers' it should read 'sojourners' or 'proselytes'.

Magur, a noun, used 1x, ​​ and means a sojourning place, dwelling-place, pilgrims.

The KJV translators put the correct word 'pilgrimage'.

Nekar, a noun, used 1x, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Instead of 'stranger' it should read 'sons of a foreigner''.

Nokriy, an adjective, used 3x, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

Instead of 'strange' it should read 'foreign'.

Toshab, a noun, used 1x, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

Instead of 'sojourner' it should read 'guest'.

Zur, a verb, used 3x, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary. Instead of 'stranger(s)' it should read 'uncustomary' or 'unaccustomed one' or 'one not of the sons of Aaron'.

Instead of 'stranger' it should read 'uncustomary' or 'unaccustomed one'.

Leviticus is basically a training manual for the priesthood. The sons of Aaron were the high priests and the rest of the sons of Levi had other priestly duties.

The sons of Aaron made the sacrifices and offerings to Yahweh for the children of Israel.

These priests were not like the Catholic priests, which would forgive everybody and every race and accept payment for indulgences. The Catholic religion is not Christianity, and the priests have no authority to forgive sins. They are not the mediators to God.

Before Jesus Christ came Aaron and his sons were the mediators to God and were the priesthood to Israelites. After Jesus ascended, the priesthood and its ordinances expired and He became our only High Priest and Mediator.

Nadab and Abihu

Leviticus 10:1 ​​ And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange (H2114- zur-alien, unusual, uncustomary) fire before Yahweh, which He commanded them not.

Strange is zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary. Strange to the law of Yahweh. Zur can refer to profane or unholy.

​​ 10:2 ​​ And there went out fire from Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh.

Verse 9 may tell the reason why they offered strange fire.

​​ 10:9 ​​ Do not drink wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting), lest you die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations:

​​ 10:10 ​​ And that you may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean;

Leviticus 16:29 ​​ And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls (by fasting), and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country (H249- ezrach-native), or a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-abides, dwells as a guest) among you:

​​ 16:30 ​​ For on that day shall the priest make an atonement (propitiation) for you, to cleanse you, that you may be clean from all your sins before Yahweh.

Stranger is H1616, ger, a noun, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest

Ger in this context is referring to Israelite sojourners.

Chapter 16 is about the Day of Atonement. These are Israelite statutes and holy days. The context is about Israelite sojourners and guests. Israelites were chosen as God's special set-apart holy people. Israelites were married to Yahweh and given the law at Mount Sinai. When Israelites break the law, the penalty is death. The sacrifices and propitiation the priesthood made for the people with the blood of bulls and goats were only temporary yearly atonements. When Yahshua Christ Jesus died and rose again, He became our High Priest and Mediator and the priesthood, priests, and all the Levitical ordinances expired. Now when we sin we must repent and ask Yahshua Christ for forgiveness and His blood is our propitiatory shelter from the penalty of sin.

The blood of Jesus was not shed for the world and everybody in it. They were not chosen as His special, peculiar, set-apart and holy people. They were not given the law or were married to. They were not covenanted with or promised anything. They were not bought and redeemed. They are not allowed into the congregation. They are not allowed to partake of the holy things.

This Bible is the book of the heritage, history, traditions, laws and commandments, covenants and promises, marriage, divorce, and regathering, reconciling and redeeming, and The Way of the race of Adam and the Anointed children of Israel. This Bible is an exclusive book to an exclusive household of people.

Chapter 17 is about sacrifices and opens up identifying who can bring and offer sacrifices.

Yahweh tells Moses to speak to Aaron, his sons, and unto all the children of Israel.

Leviticus 17:7 ​​ And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils (goat demons), after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.

Whoring is fornication, as these pagan rites included sexual behavior and race mixing.

​​ 17:8 ​​ And you shalt say unto them, Whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers (H1616- ger-sojourning Israelite kinsman, sons of proselytes) which sojourn (H1481- gur-abides) among you, that offereth a burnt offering or sacrifice,

​​ 17:9 ​​ And bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting), to offer it unto Yahweh; even that man shall be cut off from among his people.

Septuagint has 'sons of the proselytes' for H1616.

​​ 17:10 ​​ And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers (H1616- ger-Israelite sojourning kinsman) that sojourn (H1481- gur-abides, dwells) among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set My face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people (H5971- am).  ​​​​ (Gen 9:4, Deut 12:16,23)

Brenton's Septuagint did not use the word 'proselyte' in verse 10, but did in verse 8 where strangers reads 'sons of the proselytes'.

Likely because to offer a burnt offering you must be a proselyte.

Since proselyte was not used in verse 10, it shows that some kinsman sojourners who did not know the law ate blood, and Yahweh does not want any kinsman sojourner dwelling with you to eat blood.

We know these are kinsmen sojourners because 'people' in verse 10 is 'am', which means 'from among his kindred'.

​​ 17:11 ​​ For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement (propitiation) for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement (propitiation) for the soul.

Hebrews 9:22 ​​ And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

Matthew 26:28 ​​ For this is My blood of the renewed covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

​​ 17:12 ​​ Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger (H1616- ger- sojourner) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-abides, dwells as a guest) among you eat blood.

​​ 17:13 ​​ And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers (H1616- ger-sojourners) that sojourn (H1481- gur, abide, dwell) among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.

​​ 17:14 ​​ For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, you shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.

​​ 17:15 ​​ And every soul that eateth that which died of itself, or that which was torn with beasts, whether it be one of your own country (H249- ezrach-native), or a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), he shall both wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even: then shall he be clean.

Again, we know that the context here is about Israelites because non-Israelites were not allowed into the congregation (Deut 23:2). And that the law given at Sinai was to Israelites and these laws were for those Israelites born as a native, or sojourning from a foreign land (Exo 12:49; Lev 7:7; Num 15:16, 29).

Chapter 18 is about unlawful sexual relations.

Yahweh goes into great detail about uncovering the nakedness of close relatives. Menstruating women, neighbor's spouses, homosexuality, and bestiality are against the law. We are also not to race-mix with the other races.

Leviticus 18:26 ​​ You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation (H249- ezrach-native), nor any stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-as a guest, dwells, abides) among you:

​​ 18:27 ​​ (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)

​​ 18:28 ​​ That the land spue (vomit) not you out also, when you defile it, as it spued (vomited) out the nations that were before you. ​​ 

In verse 26, the Septuagint has G1481 as 'that joins himself with you'.

Westminster Leningrad Codex has 'the one sojourning in the midst of you.'

Chapter 19 is about personal conduct

Leviticus 19:1 ​​ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying,

​​ 19:2 ​​ Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, you shall be holy: for I Yahweh your God am holy.

Holy means set apart, dedicated to Yahweh.

1Peter 1:16 ​​ Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

​​ 19:9 ​​ And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shalt not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shalt you gather the gleanings of your harvest.

​​ 19:10 ​​ And you shalt not glean your vineyard, neither shalt you gather every grape of your vineyard; you shalt leave them for the poor and stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner): I am Yahweh your God.

​​ 19:33 ​​ And if a stranger (H1616- ger-proselyte sojourner) sojourn (H1481- gur-as a guest, dwells, abides) with thee in your land, you shall not vex (oppress) him.

​​ 19:34 ​​ But the stranger (H1616- ger-proselyte sojourner) that dwelleth (H1481- gur-as a guest, dwells, abides) with you shall be unto you as one born among (H249- ezrach-native among) you, and you shalt love him as thyself; for you were strangers (H1616- ger-sojourners) in the land of Egypt: I am Yahweh your God.

Verses 33-34 are Israelite sojourning guests, kinsman foreigners. Brotherly love.

They were following the commandments given in the Torah.

Leviticus 19:18 ​​ Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am Yahweh.

The 'children of thy people' and 'thy neighbor' are the same peoples. Israelites.

This is the same commandment, the 2nd Great Commandment, that Christ gave.

Matthew 19:19 ​​ Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. (See also Lev 19:34; Matt 22:39; Mar 12:31; Luk 10:27; Rom 13:9; Gal 5:14; Jas 2:8)

The context and all the definitions point to the neighbour being those of your own kinsman.

The word 'neighbour' does not mean just anyone who is nearby, as it is used today. The original root word means “to pasture or tend to the needs of a flock” and is akin to “brother” and indicates one willing to care for one's needs such as a kinsman would do.

Neighbor in scripture is H7453 rea/reya, and means brother. H5997 amiyth, and means relation, kindred.

God commanded we Israelites to live separate from the other races. That is what holy means, set-apart. We are a set apart people, set apart from all other peoples.

'Neighbour' was to be a 'brother', and we see this in Deuteronomy 15:2-3 where we are commanded to grant our 'neighbour-brothers' release from debts every seventh year. This doesn't apply to other races. In Leviticus 19:18 we are taught how to treat our 'neighbour-brothers'. In Zechariah 3:10 we see a vision of 'the refreshing of neighborliness under the vine and under the fig tree'. Vine is symbolic of Israelites, and fig tree is also symbolic of Israelites, namely the house of Judah.

Punishments for sin

Leviticus 20:1 ​​ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying,

​​ 20:2 ​​ Again, you shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman proselytes) that sojourn (H1481- gur-as a guest, dwells, abides) in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.

Septuagint has for H1616 'or of those who have become proselytes in Israel,'. Only estranged 'lost' Israelites can be proselytes.

Molech was the god of the Ammonites. They would sacrifice their children by fire. Today, abortion in the Planned Parenthood offices of Molech is the same thing.

Yahweh does not want His children sacrificed to Molech.

Chapter 22 is the law of sacrifice of animals.

Leviticus 22:10 ​​ There shall no stranger (H2114- zur-foreigner, unaccustomed one) eat of the holy thing: a sojourner (H8453- toshab- guest) of the priest, or an hired servant, shall not eat of the holy thing.

Stranger here is zur. A foreigner, strange to the laws of the Levitical ordinances, and not one of the sons of Aaron.

It should read '...no unaccustomed one eat...' '...one who is not of the sons of Aaron eat...'

​​ 22:11 ​​ But if the priest buy any soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house: they shall eat of his meat.

Septuagint: 11 ​​ But if a priest should have a soul (person) purchased for money, he shall eat of his bread; and they that are born in his house, they also shall eat of his bread.

​​ 22:12 ​​ If the priest's daughter also be married unto a stranger (H2114- zur)(and H376-iysh), she may not eat of an offering of the holy things.

Stranger here is zur. Not of the seed of Aaron. A priest's daughter married to one not of the priestly seed may not eat of the holy things.

It should read '..unto one who is not of the sons of Aaron...'.

​​ 22:13 ​​ But if the priest's daughter be a widow, or divorced, and have no child, and is returned unto her father's house, as in her youth, she shall eat of her father's meat: but there shall no stranger (H2114- zur-unaccustomed one, not of Aaronic line) eat thereof.  ​​​​ (Gen 38:11 Tamar was a Levite)

Stranger here is zur. Not of the house of Aaron.

If she does not have a foreign husband or race mixed child, she may return to her father's house and eat. But no foreigner may eat of her father's meat. No one who is not of the seed of Aaron may eat of it.

Leviticus 22:17 ​​ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying,

​​ 22:18 ​​ Speak unto Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them, Whatsoever he be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers (H1616- ger-sojourners) in Israel, that will offer his oblation for all his vows, and for all his freewill offerings, which they will offer unto Yahweh for a burnt offering;

Stranger here is ger. A sojourning kinsman.

​​ 22:19 ​​ you shall offer at your own will a male without blemish, of the beeves, of the sheep, or of the goats.

​​ 22:20 ​​ But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall you not offer: for it shall not be acceptable for you.

​​ 22:24 ​​ You shall not offer unto Yahweh that which is bruised, or crushed, or broken (torn), or cut; neither shall you make any offering thereof in your land.

​​ 22:25 ​​ Neither from a stranger's (H5236- nekar)(and H1121) hand shall you offer the bread of your God of any of these; because their corruption is in them, and blemishes be in them: they shall not be accepted for you.

Stranger in verse 18 is ger, a sojourning kinsman.

Stranger's hand in verse 25 is nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different. Son of an unknown.

It should read 'Neither from the son of a foreigner's hand...'.

Their corruption is in them. A possible statement that the other races indeed were created by the fallen angels.

Jude 1:12 ​​ These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

1:13 ​​ Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

Chapter 23 is about the 7 Feasts of Yahweh.

The 7 Feast days are:

Passover ​​ Leviticus 23:5

Feast of Unleavened Bread ​​ Leviticus 23:6

Wave Sheaf/Feast of Firstfruits/Feast of Weeks ​​ Leviticus 23:10

Pentecost ​​ Leviticus 23:15

Feast of Trumpets ​​ Leviticus 23:24

Day of Atonement ​​ Leviticus 23:27

Feast of Tabernacles followed by The Last Great Day ​​ Leviticus 23:34

Every Feast Day is a part of the Gospel message.

The Gospel is the message of the Good News. The news of our Saviour, and that He died for our sins. But it doesn't stop there. It's the Good News of regathering and reconciliation, education and teaching.

When the gospel is preached, it's message is to the children of Israel, because every one of these Feast Days is part of the plan of reunification between scattered Israelites and Yahweh.

Matthew 10:6 ​​ But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Passover is celebrated as a reminder that Yahshua died to pay the penalty of our sins during His First Advent. The angel of death passed over the Israelite's houses that were covered with the blood of the Passover Lamb.

Romans 4:7 ​​ Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

The Gospel is celebrated in the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which reminds us that we must put the sin out of our lives.

John 5:14 ​​ Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.

It is a reminder that Yahweh took our ancestors out from bondage and idolatry in haste, gave them the law and Feast Days to keep us in The Way and in remembrance that He chose us. If we are covered by His blood, then we must sin no more. We must continue to obey The Gospel, which is part of the commandments, and connected to the Feast Days.

2Thessalonians 1:8 ​​ (Yahshua will be returning with His malakiym-angels...) In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Master Yahshua Christ:

1Peter 4:17 ​​ For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

The Gospel is celebrated in the Feast of Weeks, also called Wave Sheaf and Feast of Firstfruits. It represents the Resurrection of Yahshua Christ from the dead. It is symbolic of the firstfruits of God's calling and begins the 50 day countdown to Pentecost, which means it's time to go out and witness to your kinsman that He's alive, that you are forgiven, because He is risen, now change the way you're livin'! When one responds to this Good News then they are your presentation of firstfruits which can now receive the Holy Spirit, because The Gospel is celebrated in Pentecost. When you do that which is right in the sight of Yahweh, you receive the Holy Spirit, which is promised to those who obey Him.

Acts 5:32 ​​ And we are His witnesses of these things; and also the Holy Spirit, whom God hath given to them that obey Him.

The Gospel is celebrated in the Feast of Trumpets, because the Trumpet is a warning and call to preparation that Yahshua is coming. Time to repent for the reign of Yahshua is near.

Ezekiel 33:7 ​​ So you, O son of Adam, I have set you a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore you shall hear the word from My mouth, and warn them for Me.

The Gospel is celebrated in the Day of Atonement, which is a time to repent, and to fast, which means to humble yourselves and deny food, water, and worldly things for the day. It's a spiritual as well as bodily cleanse.

Matthew 4:17 ​​ From that time Yahshua began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

The Gospel is celebrated in the Feast of Tabernacles because when you have atoned and repented, you are now cleansed and can dwell in the safety of Christ. It is a reminder of when Yahweh dwelt among our Israelite ancestors in the wilderness in tents. It is also symbolic that we will dwell in safety when He returns in flaming fire.

Exodus 29:45 ​​ And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.

Psalm 61:4 ​​ I will abide in Your tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of Your wings. Selah.

1John 2:28 ​​ And now, little children, abide in Him; that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

The Gospel is also a reminder of the Last Great Day of this Feast of Tabernacles which represents the Judgment Day and end of this evil age and the beginning of the Kingdom age.

Peter reminds us that true knowledge is the key. He states the importance of having scriptural knowledge and discerning it from corrupt worldly knowledge. Correct knowledge brings fruits of righteousness.

2Peter 1:11 ​​ For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Master and Saviour Yahshua Christ.

James 2:5 ​​ Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which He hath promised to them that love Him?

John 14:15 ​​ If ye love Me, keep My commandments.

Leviticus 23:22 ​​ And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of your field when you reapest, neither shalt you gather any gleaning of your harvest: you shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsmen): I am Yahweh your God.

Part of observing these feast days is providing for the poor and the sojourning kinsman.

Notice that the commands in verse 22 take place between the harvest of the First Fruits in the spring and through the countdown to Pentecost. This promotes brotherly love by allowing the poor and the sojourner to glean from your harvest.

Leviticus 24:15 ​​ And you shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.

​​ 24:16 ​​ And he that blasphemeth the name of Yahweh, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), as he that is born in the land (H249- ezrach-native), when he blasphemeth the name of Yahweh, shall be put to death.

​​ 24:22 ​​ You shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger (H1616- ger-proselyte sojourner), as for one of your own country (H249- ezrach-native): for I am Yahweh your God.

The same law of God and justice system applied to the proselyte as to the native born Israelite. (Exo 12:49; Lev 7:7; Num 15:15-16, 29)

How do we know that ger in verses 16 and 22 are referring to kinsmen strangers?

Because the law was given to Israelites. All Israelites are under the law, both native born, sojourning, and the proselyte.

A proselyte can only be one of the posterity of Jacob Israel or one of our Adamic kindred from the sons of Noah up through Abraham who are not Israelites but are of the same racial family of Adam.

Deuteronomy 27:19 ​​ Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment of the stranger (sojourning proselyte), fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amen.

The stranger, the fatherless, and the widow are kindred members of the Adamic family.

Chapter 25 is about the Sabbath and Jubilee years.

Yahweh spake unto Moses commanding the children of Israel that when they come into the land wherein they dwell, that they must keep the land sabbath. Every seventh year they were to let the land rest and they shall not sow their fields or prune their vineyards.

The seventh year of rest not only gave the land a chance to replenish its nutrients, but it was also a year of an over-abundance of food for everyone.

Leviticus 25:6 ​​ And the sabbath of the land shall be food for you; for you, and for your servant, and for your maid, and for your hired servant, and for your stranger (H8453- toshab-guest) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-abides) with you,

Stranger is toshab, a noun, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

The guests would be sojourning kinsmen. Israelites are a set-apart people and we have a family heritage that we share only with relatives.

These guests and sojourners are not the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, Jebusites or Girgashites, because these cursed seed tribes would never be welcome into the homes, communities, or congregations of the children of Israel.

These guests and sojourners would not be blacks, Asians, Mexicans, Arabs or Jews either, because the blacks, Asians and Mexicans were not living anywhere near the Israelites and the dark skinned Arabs had not yet come into being through the race-mixing of the Ishmaelites, and the Jews were Edomites and Canaanites.

Nowhere in Scripture did Yahweh open the door for these strangers to join in our heritage and covenants. It is the 'churches' that violate the covenants and God's Word.

The year of Jubilee, which starts on the Day of Atonement and goes through to the following year's DOA, was a release of all debts and servitude, and every man's possessions, land, and family are returned to him.

Leviticus 25:23  ​​​​ The land shall not be sold for ever (in finality): for the land is Mine; for you are strangers (H1616- ger-kinsman visitors) and sojourners (H8453- toshab-resident alien guests) with Me.

We are His landlords, we are His house holders. We are supposes to take care of it.

Deuteronomy 32:43 ​​ Rejoice, O ye nations, His people: for He will avenge the blood of His servants, and will render vengeance to His adversaries, and will be merciful unto His land, to His people.

We are Yahweh's people, race. We are Israelite sojourners and aliens before Yahweh to this world.

Yahweh provides a way through His laws and the Jubilee year to redeem what is ours.

​​ 25:35 ​​ And if your brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay (strength) with you; then you shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), or a sojourner (H8453- toshab-guest); that he may live with thee.

Thou shalt assist him and let him live with thee like a resident foreigner. He was not to be regarded as an outcast, but was to be treated with the same respect and consideration as a resident foreigner who, like him, could possess no land, but could accumulate property and live in comfort as a free man.

The gerim (sojourning kinsmen) have equal rights before the law and can accumulate wealth in Israel.

​​ 25:36 ​​ Take you no usury of him, or increase: but fear your God; that your brother may live with thee. ​​ 

​​ 25:37 ​​ You shalt not give him your money upon usury, nor lend him your victuals for increase.

​​ 25:38 ​​ I am Yahweh your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

​​ 25:39 ​​ And if your brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be sold unto thee; you shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

​​ 25:40 ​​ But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner (H8453- toshab-temporary inmate), he shall be with thee, and shall serve thee unto the year of jubilee (Yobel year):

​​ 25:41 ​​ And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.

​​ 25:42 ​​ For they are My servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

​​ 25:43 ​​ You shalt not rule over him with rigour (cruelty); but shalt fear (revere) your God.

Verses 23-40 the toshab is a kinsman guest and sojourner. We know this because we see the words 'brother', 'hired servant' until the Jubilee year, and that they are Yahweh's servants which He brought out of Egypt and they shall not be sold as bondmen.

Who are Yahweh's servants? Isaiah 41:8, 44:1-2,21, 45:4, 49:5; Jeremiah 30:10, 33:26, 46:27-28; Ezekiel 28:25, 37:25. “My servant Jacob”.

Who is blind, but My servant? Isaiah 42:19/John 9:19.

Are the Jews blind? Or are we Israelites blind?

The next few verses, 44-46 the toshab are non-kinsman bondservants/maids.

​​ 25:44 ​​ Both your bondmen, and your bondmaids, which you shalt have, shall be of the nations that are round about you; of them shall you buy bondmen and bondmaids.

​​ 25:45 ​​ Moreover of the children of the strangers (H8453- toshab-uncircumcised resident aliens) that do sojourn (H1481- gur-dwell, remain) among you, of them shall you buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.

​​ 25:46 ​​ And you shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, you shall not rule one over another with rigour (cruelty).

In verses 47-50, the toshab is an uncircumcised sojourner or resident guest, according to the Targum of Jonathan.

​​ 25:47 ​​ And if a sojourner (H1616- ger-uncircumcised sojourner) or stranger (H8453- toshab- uncircumcised guest) wax rich by you, and your brother that dwelleth by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the stranger (H1616- ger-uncircumcised sojourner) or sojourner (H8453- toshab-uncircumcised guest) by you, or to the stock of the stranger's (H1616- ger-proselyte's) family:

Septuagint has the last H1616 as 'proselyte'.

​​ 25:48 ​​ After that he is sold he may be redeemed (bought back for the price of redemption) again; one of his brethren may redeem him (buy him back for the price of redemption):

​​ 25:49 ​​ Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him (act as kinsman redeemer), or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him (act as kinsman redeemer); or if he be able, he may redeem himself (act as kinsman redeemer).

​​ 25:50 ​​ And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubilee (Yobel year): and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.

And if an Israelite sojourner or a temporary resident guest becomes rich by you, and your brother in distress sell himself unto that Israelite sojourner or temporary resident guest that is with you, or to the stock of the Israelite sojourner's family: after he is sold to him there shall be redemption for him, one of his brethren shall redeem him.

The toshab was an unnaturalized sojourner or temporary dweller (not just a visitor).

Leviticus 25:45-46 the Jubilee law of release didn’t apply to an alien toshab; his child could be a perpetual slave.

In Leviticus we saw 4 different Hebrew words for stranger.

Ger, a noun, used 21x, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Instead of 'strangers' it should read 'sojourners' or 'proselytes'.

Nekar, a noun, used 1x, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Instead of 'stranger's hand' it should read 'sons of a foreigner's hand'.

Toshab, a noun, used 8x, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

Instead of ​​ 'stranger' and 'sojourner' it should read 'guest', 'temporary inmate' and 'uncircumcised resident alien'.

Zur, a verb, used 4x, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

Instead of 'stranger(s)' it should read 'uncustomary' or 'unaccustomed one' or 'one not of the sons of Aaron'.

NUMBERS

Numbers 1:50 ​​ But you shalt appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of testimony, and over all the vessels thereof, and over all things that belong to it: they shall bear the tabernacle, and all the vessels thereof; and they shall minister unto it, and shall encamp round about the tabernacle.

​​ 1:51 ​​ And when the tabernacle setteth forward, the Levites shall take it down: and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up: and the stranger (H2114- zur-an unaccustomed one, not of the sons of Levi) that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

Stranger is H2114, zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

We saw earlier in Leviticus that zur was one not of the sons of Aaron.

Aaron was a Levite, but he and his sons were the high priests.

Here in Numbers chapter 1 the context of verse 51, a non-Levite, one not of the sons of Levi. An unaccustomed one. Foreign to the law. Only the Levites could approach the tabernacle.

Levi was the priestly tribe. The different clans of Levites had different priestly duties.

Numbers 3:4 ​​ And Nadab and Abihu died before Yahweh, when they offered strange (H2114- zur-alien, unusual, uncustomary) fire before Yahweh, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the sight of Aaron their father. ​​ (Lev 10:1)

Unacceptable fire. Profane. Strange to the law.

Yahweh commands Moses to present the tribe of Levi before Aaron the priest. The Levites were in charge of the congregation, the setting up of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the service and instruments of the tabernacle.

Numbers 3:9 ​​ And you shalt give the Levites unto Aaron and to his sons: they are wholly given unto him out of the children of Israel.

​​ 3:10 ​​ And you shalt appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall wait on their priest's office: and the stranger (H2114- zur-the unaccustomed one, one not of the sons of Aaron or the Levites) that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

Stranger is H2114, zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary to the laws of the priesthood and its ordinances.

Yahweh then instructs Moses to appoint the children of Levi to their duties and camp positions. He gives further instructions for the sons of Aaron.

​​ 3:38 ​​ But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting) eastward (toward the sunrise), shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger (H2114- zur-the unaccustomed one, one not of the sons of Aaron ) that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

Stranger here is zur. Those not of the house of Aaron. Yahweh chose Aaron and his sons to keep the charge of the sanctuary.

Non-Israelites could never come near to the sanctuary, and no Levite not of the sons of Aaron could come near to the sanctuary. The penalty is death.

In chapter 9, Yahweh instructs Moses to command the children of Israel to keep the Passover in its appointed time, the 14th day of the first month. Because of certain circumstances, being that of uncleanness by war, touching dead bodies, or being in a journey afar off, the Passover shall still be kept. So Yahweh allowed a make-up date of the 14th day of the second month for the Passover.

We know the Passover and other feast days are exclusively for Israelites because in verse 10 Yahweh states 'your posterity' and in verse 13 anyone violating these ordinances will be cut off from among his people.

Numbers 9:14 ​​ And if a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) shall sojourn (H1481- gur-dwell) among you, and will keep the passover unto Yahweh; according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: you shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), and for him that was born (H249- ezrach-native) in the land.

Brenton's Septuagint does not use 'proselyte' here, but does in the previous verses where the 'stranger' keeps the Passover (Exo 12:48-49; Lev 25:47).

We know this is not speaking of non-Israelites and non-kindred peoples because Deuteronomy 23:2 and 1Corinthians 11:27, 29.

Chapter 15 is about the offerings of Israel and unintentional sins.

Numbers 15:1 ​​ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying,

​​ 15:2 ​​ Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When you be come into the land of your habitations, which I give unto you,

​​ 15:13 ​​ All that are born (H249- ezrach-native) of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour (odor) unto Yahweh.

​​ 15:14 ​​ And if a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) sojourn (H1481- gur, dwells, abides) with you, or whosoever be among you in your generations (posterity), and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour (odor) unto Yahweh; as you do, so he shall do.

​​ 15:15 ​​ One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-dwells, abides) with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as you are, so shall the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) be before Yahweh.

​​ 15:16 ​​ One law (torah) and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-abides, dwells) with you. (Lev 24:22)

​​ 15:17 ​​ And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying,

​​ 15:18 ​​ Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When you come into the land whither I bring you,

​​ 15:22 ​​ And if you have erred, and not observed all these commandments, which Yahweh hath spoken unto Moses,

​​ 15:23 ​​ Even all that Yahweh hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that Yahweh commanded Moses, and henceforward among your generations (posterity);

​​ 15:24 ​​ Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet savour (odor) unto Yahweh, with his meat (grain) offering, and his drink offering, according to the manner, and one kid of the goats for a sin offering.

​​ 15:25 ​​ And the priest shall make an atonement (propitiation) for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be forgiven (pardoned) them; for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto Yahweh, and their sin offering before Yahweh, for their ignorance:

​​ 15:26 ​​ And it shall be forgiven (pardoned) all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-dwells) among them; seeing all the people (H5971- am-kinsmen, members of one's people) were in ignorance.

​​ 15:29 ​​ Ye shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance, both for him that is born (H249- ezrach-native) among the children of Israel, and for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-abides, dwells) among them.

​​ 15:30 ​​ But the soul that doeth ought presumptuously, whether he be born in the land (H249- ezrach-native), or a stranger (H1616- ger-kinsman sojourner), the same reproacheth Yahweh; and that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

Chapter 16 is about the rebellion of Korah.

Qorach was the great grandson of Levi and leader of the rebellion against Moses and Aaron.

Qorach wanted more authority and a better position in the Levitical priesthood, but Yahweh chose Aaron and his sons to be the chief priests. Qorach and all that were with him were destroyed.

Jasher 84:2 ​​ And Yahweh was angry with them, and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, with their houses and all belonging to them, and all the men belonging to Korah.

Numbers 16:39 ​​ And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:

​​ 16:40 ​​ To be a memorial (reminder) unto the children of Israel, that no stranger (H2114- zur-no unaccustomed one, one not of the sons of Aaron), which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before Yahweh; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as Yahweh said to him by the hand of Moses.

Stranger is H2114, zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

As verse 40 states, not of the sons of Aaron. Non-Aaronite laymen were not authorized to perform this priestly function. Korah, who was a Levite not of Aaron's line, 'and his company', the sons of Eliab, and On, and sons of Reuben, and other men were not authorized.

Chapter 18 is about tithes and offerings.

Numbers 18:1 ​​ And Yahweh said unto Aaron, Thou and your sons and your father's house with you shall bear the iniquity (responsibility) of the sanctuary: and you and your sons with you shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.

​​ 18:2 ​​ And your brethren also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of your father, bring you with you, that they may be joined unto you, and minister unto you: but you and your sons with you shall minister before the tabernacle of witness.

​​ 18:3 ​​ And they shall keep your charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle: only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar, that neither they, nor you also, die.

​​ 18:4 ​​ And they shall be joined unto you, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting), for all the service of the tabernacle: and a stranger (H2114- zur-the unaccustomed one, one not of the sons of Levi) shall not come nigh unto you.

Stranger here is zur. Somebody not of the tribe of Levi.

​​ 18:5 ​​ And you shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar: that there be no wrath any more upon the children of Israel.

​​ 18:6 ​​ And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift for Yahweh, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting).

​​ 18:7 ​​ Therefore you and your sons with you shall keep your priest's office for every thing of the altar, and within the vail; and you shall serve: I have given your priest's office unto you as a service of gift: and the stranger (H2114- zur-the unaccustomed one, one not of the sons of Levi) that cometh nigh shall be put to death.

Only the Levites were allowed near the tabernacle, and only the sons of Aaron were allowed in the tabernacle. Non-Levite laymen were not to set up or take down God’s tabernacle.

Chapter 19 is about the purification of the unclean.

Numbers 19:10 ​​ And he that gathereth the ashes of the heifer shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: and it shall be unto the children of Israel, and unto the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-abides, dwells, joined to them) among them, for a statute for ever.

This chapter also covers uncleanness by way of touching a dead body, or from war.

The people and the priests had to be clean to perform or attend any ceremonies, sacrifices and offerings.

Numbers 22:1 ​​ And the children of Israel set forward, and pitched in the plains of Moab on this side Jordan by Jericho.

​​ 22:2 ​​ And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.

​​ 22:3 ​​ And Moab was sore afraid (H1481- gur-shrinking in the face) of the people, because they were many: and Moab was distressed because of the children of Israel.

Afraid is H1481 gur, a verb, and means to abide, to dwell for a time, to remain, to inhabit.

Up to this point, from Genesis to Numbers, the verb gur was used in the context of sojourning.

Here in verse 3, the other lesser used definitions of gur are shown.

Stood in awe. Gathered together for hostility (as afraid). Shrinking in the face of.

The Moabites heard of what the Israelites had done to the two kings of the Amorites, so they were greatly afraid of the Israelites. They abode in fear.

Chapter 35 is about cities for the Levites and for refuge for innocent accidents.

Numbers 35:10 ​​ Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When you be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;

​​ 35:11 ​​ Then you shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither, which killeth any person at unawares.

​​ 35:12 ​​ And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger (kinsman revenger); that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment.

​​ 35:15 ​​ These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of Israel, and for the stranger (H1616- ger-kinsman sojourner), and for the sojourner (H8453- toshab-temporary resident guest) among them: that every one that killeth any person unawares may flee thither.

The city of refuge protection was given the toshab guest too.

Sojourner is H8453 toshab, a noun, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

In Numbers we saw 3 different Hebrew words for stranger.

Ger, a noun, used 11x, ​​ and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Instead of 'stranger(s)' it should read 'kinsman sojourners'.

Toshab, a noun, used 1x, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

Instead of 'sojourner' it should read 'temporary resident guest'.

Zur, a verb, used 8x, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

Instead of 'stranger(s)' it should read 'uncustomary' or 'unaccustomed one' or 'one not of the sons of Aaron, or of Levi'.

DEUTERONOMY

Deuteronomy is a repetition of the law.

The law was given at Sinai during the first year of the children of Israel coming out of Egypt.

The events in Deuteronomy are of the end of their wandering in the wilderness and their entering into the Promised Land. The older generations had died and now the law is being repeated to the newer generations.

Moses could not bear the pressure, burden and strife of all the people so he appointed rulers and heads over them.

Deuteronomy 1:14 ​​ And you answered me, and said, The thing which you hast spoken is good for us to do.

​​ 1:15 ​​ So I took the chief of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, and captains over fifties, and captains over tens, and officers among your tribes.

​​ 1:16 ​​ And I charged your judges at that time, saying, Hear the causes between your brethren, and judge righteously between every man and his brother, and the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) that is with him.

​​ 1:17 ​​ Ye shall show no partiality in judgment; but you shall hear the small as well as the great; you shall not be afraid (H1481- gur-shrink away from) of the face of man (H376- iysh); for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it.

Stranger is H1616 ger, and is a sojourning kinsman.

Afraid is H1481 gur, a verb which usually means to abide, to dwell for a time, to remain, to inhabit. To stay as a temporary resident. It also means to dread, to fear, to stand in awe, to be afraid.

You shall not shrink away from the face of man (mortals). These appointed men will judge righteously according to God's judgment.

Deuteronomy 5:12 ​​ Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as Yahweh your God hath commanded you.

​​ 5:13 ​​ Six days you shalt labour, and do all your work:

​​ 5:14 ​​ But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yahweh your God: in it you shalt not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your ox, nor your ass, nor any of your cattle (livestock), nor your stranger ​​ (H1616- ger-sojourner) that is within your gates; that your manservant and your maidservant may rest as well as you.

​​ 5:15 ​​ And remember that you wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that Yahweh your God brought you out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore Yahweh your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day.

Chapter 10 is Yahweh's great requirement.

Yahweh commanded Moses to hew two tables of stone to replace the first tables which he broke. Yahweh had Moses make an ark of shittim wood to keep the stone tablets in.

Yahweh told Moses to remind the children of Israel of what Yahweh their God required of them. To revere Him, to walk in all His ways, to love and serve Him with all their heart and soul. To keep the commandments of Yahweh. He reminds them that Yahweh made these laws, covenants, and promises to their forefathers, and that He chose their seed after them, and that they were above all people.

Deuteronomy 10:17 ​​ For Yahweh your God is God of gods, and Sovereign of sovereigns, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible (awesome), who shows no partiality, nor taketh bribes: ​​ 

​​ 10:18 ​​ He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), in giving him food and raiment.

​​ 10:19 ​​ Love you therefore the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner): for you were strangers (H1616- ger-sojourners) in the land of Egypt.

This theme of loving the stranger goes throughout the whole bible. It's talking about loving your kinsmen, your neighbor, and the sojourner. All of which are your racial kinsmen.

These verses are not talking about loving strangers, other races, or some random neighbors that are not of your race. All the words and definitions for 'neighbor' in context is always about your own kindred.

In a Christian society and community, your strangers, sojourners, and your neighbors would be those of your own kindred. Yahweh demands we be set-apart and separate from those not of your kindred.

Unfortunately our once White countries are not White anymore, nor countries, but corporations. The integration of the other races into White countries is the master plan of the Jews to wipe out our people. It's working quite well, as we are quickly becoming the minority in our own land.

We are not to hate or treat the other races poorly, but we are not to invite them into our homes, our communities, or our congregations. We wouldn't be a set-apart people if we did.

This Bible is our family history, our heritage and traditions, our laws and commandments, and our Way of Life.

It's the 'churches' that universalized the message to fit everybody and every race in the world into the covenants and promises Yahweh made exclusively with our people.

Chapter 14 is about the clean and unclean.

Again, the context is the children of Israel.

Deuteronomy 14:1 ​​ Ye are the children of Yahweh your God...

​​ 14:2 ​​ For you are an holy people unto Yahweh your God, and Yahweh hath chosen you to be a peculiar people unto Himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.

Leviticus 20:26 ​​ And you shall be holy unto Me: for I Yahweh am holy, and have severed you from other people, that you should be Mine.

Holy means 'set apart'.

​​ 14:3 ​​ You shalt not eat any abominable thing.

Chapter 14 is a reminder of the clean and unclean animals we can eat and cannot eat.

The food laws are still in effect, as the vacuum cleaners of the land and water are still the vacuum cleaners of the land and water. The 'churches' did away with God's food laws because they love bacon and catfish more than God!

​​ 14:21 ​​ Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself: you shalt give it unto the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) that is in your gates, that he may eat it; or you mayest sell it unto an alien (H5237- nokriy-non Israelite foreigner)(the other races): for you are an holy people unto Yahweh your God. You shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

The H1616 stranger in verse 21 is not a proselyte or an Israelite; but a heathen traveler or sojourner can eat that which dieth of itself.

The Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan call him an uncircumcised stranger or proselyte, who had not submitted to circumcision.

Alien is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

You mayest sell that which died of itself unto an alien; an idolater, one that was neither a proselyte of righteousness nor of the gate, an entire alien from the commonwealth of Israel; one that was occasionally in the land of Canaan, or was traveling in it or through it, to such an one it might be sold. ​​ 

The last part of verse 21 has been a subject of controversy. This does not specify any prohibition against eating milk and meat in the same meal. This is a fabrication of the Jews.

There are many instances of boiling meat. Just not in milk. This may also be a reference to not take a nursing animal for food or ritual.

It appears to be pointed against an annual pagan ceremony Ex 23:19; Ex 34:26). The first commandment given about seething a kid in its mother's milk precedes the events in the Exodus in which the Israelites were about to enter into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizites, Canaanites, Hivites, and Jebusites, all of which are pagan cursed seed tribes which did these things.

Verses 22-29 are about tithing the increase of the field to the Levites.

If you were coming from a far off land and you couldn't carry all the produce, you would turn it into money and bring it to the Temple...

Deuteronomy 14:26 ​​ And you shalt bestow that money for whatsoever your soul lusteth after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever your soul desireth: and you shalt eat there before Yahweh your God, and you shalt rejoice, you, and your household,

​​ 14:27 ​​ And the Levite that is within your gates; you shalt not forsake him; for he hath no part (portion) nor inheritance with you. ​​ 

​​ 14:28 ​​ At the end of three years you shalt bring forth all the tithe of your increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within your gates:

​​ 14:29 ​​ And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with you,) and the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you doest.

Deuteronomy 15:1 ​​ At the end of every seven years you shalt make a release.

Exodus 21:2 ​​ If you buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.

Exodus 23:10 ​​ And six years you shalt sow your land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:

23:11 ​​ But the seventh year you shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of your people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner you shalt deal with your vineyard, and with your oliveyard.

Leviticus 25:2 ​​ Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When you come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto Yahweh.

25:4 ​​ But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for Yahweh: you shalt neither sow your field, nor prune your vineyard.

​​ 15:2 ​​ And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour (H7453) shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour (H7453), or of his brother; because it is called Yahweh's release.

4Maccabees 2:8 ​​ A man, therefore, who regulates his course by the law, even if he be a lover of money, straightway puts force upon his own disposition; lending to the needy without interest, and canceling the debt of the incoming sabbath.

​​ 15:3 ​​ Of a foreigner (H5237- nokriy-racial alien) you mayest exact it again: but that which is your with your brother (H251- ach-kinship) your hand shall release;

Foreigner is nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

In verse 3 the nokriy foreigner is a non-kinsman, a racial alien.

You may resume exacting the nokriy foreigner's debt after the seventh year. But the debt with a brother, or kinsman, would be released, hence Yahweh's release.

​​ 15:4 ​​ Save when there shall be no poor among you; for Yahweh shall greatly bless you in the land which Yahweh your God giveth you for an inheritance to possess it:

​​ 15:5 ​​ Only if you carefully hearken unto the voice of Yahweh your God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command you this day.

​​ 15:6 ​​ For Yahweh your God blesseth you, as He promised you: and you shalt lend unto many nations, but you shalt not borrow; and you shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over you.

There’s no release of debts for a nokriy/allotrios G245; and he paid interest (Deut 23:20).

Chapter 16 is a reminder of the Passover.

Deuteronomy 16:1 ​​ Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto Yahweh your God: for in the month of Abib Yahweh your God brought you forth out of Egypt by night.

Abib is in the end of March beginning of April of the modern calendar. The first day of Abib is the Spring Equinox, which is usually on March 20-21. Fourteen days later would be the Passover. It's not always on Sundays. It's reckoned by the Solar calendar, not the day of the sun god (Sunday). The 'churches' observe the Passover, but not the other feast days. This is because the 'churches' don't know who they are and Whose they are. They think these feast days are for Jews. The 'churches' are victims of amnesia and identity theft.

​​ 16:3 ​​ You shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt you eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for you camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that you mayest remember the day when you camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life.

​​ 16:10 ​​ And you shalt keep the feast of weeks unto Yahweh your God with a tribute of a freewill offering of your hand, which you shalt give unto Yahweh your God, according as Yahweh your God hath blessed you:

​​ 16:11 ​​ And you shalt rejoice before Yahweh your God, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite that is within your gates, and the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), and the fatherless, and the widow, that are among you, in the place which Yahweh your God hath chosen to place His name there.

​​ 16:12 ​​ And you shalt remember that you wast a bondman in Egypt: and you shalt observe and do these statutes.

​​ 16:13 ​​ You shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that you hast gathered in your corn (grain) and your wine:

​​ 16:14 ​​ And you shalt rejoice in your feast, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within your gates.

This next use of stranger should plainly show that all the races are not brothers or kindred.

Deuteronomy 17:14 ​​ When you are come unto the land which Yahweh your God giveth you, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations that are about me;

​​ 17:15 ​​ You shalt certainly set a king over you, whom Yahweh your God shall choose: one from among your brethren (H251- ach-kinship) shalt you set king over you: you mayest not set a stranger (H5237- nokriy-foreign one) over you, which is not your brother (H251- ach-kinship).

Stranger is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

No non-Israelite shall be set over us. We failed at this law, hence Obama, and all the Jews and other races in office. Did you know more than half our Presidents had Jewish bloodlines? FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, LBJ, Wilson, the Bushs', Clinton, Obama, Trump. Look up Jewish politicians, senators, congressmen, they are all Ashkenazi Jews. All of whom are nokriy/allotrios alien outlandish foreigners to our people Anglo-Saxon Israel.

But God, in the retributions of His providence, does allow foreign princes to usurp our dominion when we sin against Him. (Jer 38:17; Mt 22:17).

The tribe of Levi was not given any land inheritance because Yahweh is their inheritance. It is the people who shall give the priests their due which comes from their offerings and tithes.

Deuteronomy 18:6 ​​ And if a Levite come from any of your gates out of all Israel, where he sojourned (H1481- gur-dwells), and come with all the desire of his mind unto the place which Yahweh shall choose;

​​ 18:7 ​​ Then he shall minister in the name of Yahweh his God, as all his brethren the Levites do, which stand there before Yahweh.

​​ 18:8 ​​ They shall have like portions to eat, beside that which cometh of the sale of his patrimony.

2Chronicles 31:4 ​​ Moreover he (Hezekiah) commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be encouraged in the law of Yahweh.

​​ 18:18 ​​ I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto you, and will put My words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

​​ 18:19 ​​ And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto My words which he shall speak in My name, I will require it of him.

Acts 3:23 ​​ And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet (Christ), shall be destroyed from among the people.

In verse 19, I will require (or exact it) from him, H1875 has a concept of “avenge” here.

​​ 18:20 ​​ But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in My name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.

​​ 18:21 ​​ And if you say in your heart, How shall we know the word which Yahweh hath not spoken?

​​ 18:22 ​​ When a prophet speaketh in the name of Yahweh, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which Yahweh hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously (arrogantly, wickedly): you shalt not be afraid (H1481- gur-shrink away) of him.

The Septuagint ends as: “...ye shall not spare him.”

Here in chapter 18 we saw the two different uses of the verb gur, which means sojourning and it also means to be afraid, stand in awe, or shrink away.

Chapter 23 is about who is to be excluded from the congregation.

Deuteronomy Septuagint: 23:1 ​​ He that is fractured or mutilated in his private parts shall not enter into the assembly of Yahweh.

​​ 23:2(KJV) ​​ A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of Yahweh; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of Yahweh.

A bastard is mamzer in Hebrew. A mongrel, child of incest, a mixed race person. Anyone not of the race of Adam.

Euripides, Hippolytus, Line 962-963: "...the bastard is always regarded as an enemy to the true-born".

​​ 23:3 ​​ An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of Yahweh; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of Yahweh for ever:

The Ammonites and Moabites were descendants of incest between Lot and his daughters.

The silly 'churches' teach that Ruth was a Moabite. They don't understand history, or who conquered what lands from who. Numbers records how the Israelites cleansed the land of the Moabites a couple hundred years before the time of Ruth.

Ruth was a Moabite by geography, not by race. Ruth was King David's great grandmother. So is David and Jesus Moabites? No.

​​ 23:6 ​​ You shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days for ever.

For ever, this states that even to their tenth generation means for ever. This is an idiom for for ever.

​​ 23:7 ​​ You shalt not abhor an *Edomite; for he is your brother: you shalt not abhor an Egyptian; because you wast a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) in his land.

Edomite should be Aramite (Aramean), or Syrian. The translators made a mistake.

H758 is aram and is the correct word. Aram was a son of Shem (Gen 10:22)

Strong's Exhaustive Concordance under H726 aromiy (Aramite, Syrian) shows that H130 (Edomite) was a scribal error.

The Edomites are descendants of Esau, Jacob's brother. The Edomites are Jews. Jews are born of fornication, they are mongrels, they are not pure-blooded. Esau married Canaanite wives.

​​ 23:8 ​​ The children that are begotten of them (meaning begotten of the Aramite, or Syrian, or Egyptian) shall enter into the congregation of Yahweh in their third generation.

The Syrians are Aramaeans, descendants of Shem. The Egyptians were Hamites, descendants of Ham. These tribes are kindred peoples to the Israelites. Yahweh wanted those Aramite Syrians and Hamites to be conformed to His laws for a few generations. Supposing their grandfather turned proselyte, and the children continued in that faith received by such ancestors. This is why Yahweh destroyed the generations of Israelites that came out of Egypt. To purge the people of their pagan indoctrination.

This is why we see the verses such as...

Exodus 20:3 ​​ Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.

20:4 ​​ Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:

20:5 ​​ Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I Yahweh thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me;

20:6 ​​ And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and keep My commandments.

We see this repeated in Exo 34:7; Num 14:18; and Deut 5:9.

These next verses are about Purity During War.

They cover other examples of uncleanness, which soldier's having a wet dream must bathe and cannot come back into the camp until evening, and they must bury their poop in the dirt.

This is because during war, if you want Yahweh to walk in the midst of your camp to deliver you, your camp must be holy and have no indecency in it.

Whores, male prostitutes, and the money made by them shall not be brought into the house of Yahweh.

​​ 23:19 ​​ You shalt not lend upon usury to your brother (H251- ach-kinship)(racial kinsmen); usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury:  ​​​​ (Ex 22:25)

​​ 23:20 ​​ Unto a stranger (H5237- nokriy-foreigner) you mayest lend upon usury; but unto your brother (kinsmen) you shalt not lend upon usury: that Yahweh your God may bless you in all that you settest your hand to in the land whither you goest to possess it.

Stranger is nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

This is a repeat of Deuteronomy 15:3. There’s no release of debts for a nokriy/allotrios G245; and he paid interest (Duet 23:20).

We can plainly see that God has a set-apart holy people and that everyone else who is not in the racial family of Adam is not covered by these laws, commands, covenants and promises made with the children of Jacob. They are also not covered by the blood of Jesus Christ because He came only unto the Adamic household and lost sheep of the house of Jacob Israel.

So God is racist? Yes. He loves His own racial family born from above and engendered into Adamic flesh and blood bodies.

When you understand who is who and you read the words of God, you will see who is allowed into the congregation and who is not.

The 'churches' invite everybody, every race, every sinner, every abomination.

God has only invited His family. Only Israelites and their Adamic kinsmen that are proselytes are allowed into the congregation.

Everyone else is banned from entering the congregation. This ban was not lifted in the New Testament, because the NT is not a new covenant with Gentiles or 33,000 denominational 'churches'. It is a renewed covenant with the descendants of the BC Israelites. Yahshua Christ's death is the fulfillment of the prophecies made to the BC fathers in the AD posterity, and continues today when our 'lost' and walking in darkness ger kinsmen hear and take hold of the Gospel.

Deuteronomy 24:14 ​​ You shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he be of your brethren (H251-ach-kindred), or of your strangers (H1616- ger-kinsman sojourners) that are in your land within your gates:

Malachi 3:5 ​​ And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger (kinsman sojourner) from his right, and fear not Me, saith Yahweh of hosts.

​​ 24:15 ​​ At his day you shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry against you unto Yahweh, and it be sin unto you.

Leviticus 19:13 ​​ Thou shalt not defraud your neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with you all night until the morning.

Jeremiah 22:13 ​​ Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong; that useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth him not for his work;

​​ 24:16 ​​ The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.  ​​​​ (2Ki 14:6)

​​ 24:17 ​​ You shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:

The Hebrew has: “You shall not wrest the rights of the sojourner...”

Pledge (H2254), security on a debt.

​​ 24:18 ​​ But you shalt remember that you wast a bondman in Egypt, and Yahweh your God redeemed (ransomed) you thence: therefore I command you to do this thing.

​​ 24:19 ​​ When you cuttest down your harvest in your field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, you shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner), for the fatherless, and for the widow: that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.

​​ 24:20 ​​ When you beatest your olive tree, you shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), for the fatherless, and for the widow.

The phrase beatest your olive tree is a reference to 'knock down the olives'. Don't beat it twice, leave some for the poor.

​​ 24:21 ​​ When you gatherest the grapes of your vineyard, you shalt not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), for the fatherless, and for the widow.

​​ 24:22 ​​ And you shalt remember that you wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command you to do this thing.

So how do we know these are kinsman sojourners?

The language identifies brothers, neighbor, turning aside a stranger from his rights. Only the children of Israel were given laws and rights, and only kinsmen relatives would be living among them as God commanded we live separate from the other races.

God provides for His people, especially for the sojourning kinsman.

Matthew 10:31 ​​ Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

The other races were not living among or beside the Israelites. ​​ The only other races at that time and in the area were the Canaanite and Edomite tribes.

Deuteronomy 25:5 ​​ If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger (H2114- zur-family member of the husband's side)(and H376-iysh-husband): her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's brother unto her.

This stranger is zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

In the case of verse 5, she must not marry outside her husband's brother's side. Why?

​​ 25:6 ​​ And it shall be, that the firstborn which she beareth shall succeed in the name of his brother which is dead, that his name be not put out of Israel.  ​​​​ (Ruth 4:10)

God does not want His special, chosen people to race-mix ourselves out of existence.

The reason for this law was to keep up the distinction of tribes and families.

H376 iysh follows H2114 zur, which backs up 'husband' which is in the definition of iysh.

The design of the law being to secure inheritances, and continue them in the families to which they belonged.

Targum of Jonathan describes them as brethren on the father's side.

This word zur was also the word used in Leviticus to make a distinction between the sons of Aaron and the rest of the tribes of Levi.

Chapter 26 is about firstfruits and tithes.

Moses tells the people that when they come into the land which Yahweh is giving them, they shall take the firstfruits of the harvest and bring it to the Temple.

Deuteronomy 26:3 ​​ And you shalt go unto the priest that shall be in those days, and say unto him, I profess this day unto Yahweh your God, that I am come unto the country which Yahweh sware unto our (fore) fathers for to give us.

​​ 26:4 ​​ And the priest shall take the basket out of your hand, and set it down before the altar of Yahweh your God.

​​ 26:5 ​​ And you shalt speak and say before Yahweh your God, A Syrian (Aramean) ready to perish was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned (H1481- gur-dwelt, abode) there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:

This is a reference to Jacob. (This also backs up the scribal error of 'Edomite' in 23:7 where it should read 'Syrian')

Hosea 12:12 ​​ And Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.

​​ 26:6 ​​ And the Egyptians (then, the Hyksos) evil entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:

​​ 26:7 ​​ And when we cried unto Yahweh God of our (fore) fathers, Yahweh heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression:  ​​​​ (Ex 2:23-25, 3:9, 4:31)

​​ 26:8 ​​ And Yahweh brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:

​​ 26:9 ​​ And He hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, even a land that floweth with milk and honey.

​​ 26:10 ​​ And now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the land (ground), which You, O Yahweh, hast given me. And you shalt set it before Yahweh your God, and worship before Yahweh your God:

​​ 26:11 ​​ And you shalt rejoice in every good thing which Yahweh your God hath given unto you, and unto your house, you, and the Levite, and the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that is among you.

​​ 26:12 ​​ When you hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of your increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within your gates, and be filled;

​​ 26:13 ​​ Then you shalt say before Yahweh your God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of mine house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all Your commandments which You hast commanded me: I have not transgressed Your commandments, neither have I forgotten them:

Hallowed things are the food items set aside for tithing.

​​ 26:14 ​​ I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken away ought thereof for any unclean use, nor given ought thereof for the dead: but I have hearkened to the voice of Yahweh my God, and have done according to all that You hast commanded me.

​​ 26:15 ​​ Look down from Your holy habitation, from heaven (the sky), and bless Your people Israel, and the land which You hast given us, as You swarest unto our (fore) fathers, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

​​ 26:16 ​​ This day Yahweh your God hath commanded you to do these statutes and judgments: you shalt therefore keep and do them with all your heart, and with all your soul.

The ger stranger in chapter 26 is the sojourning kinsman. We know these are kindred peoples because the firstfruits, the tithes, and the hallowed things are all holy set-apart things from of the holy set-apart people the children of Israel.

Still don't believe it? Moses is speaking to the children of Israel.

​​ 26:17 ​​ You hast avouched Yahweh this day to be your God, and to walk in His ways, and to keep His statutes, and His commandments, and His judgments, and to hearken unto His voice:

​​ 26:18 ​​ And Yahweh hath avouched you this day to be His peculiar people, as He hath promised you, and that you shouldest keep all His commandments;  ​​​​ (Ex 6:7, 19:5)

​​ 26:19 ​​ And to make you high above all nations which He hath made, in praise, and in name, and in honour (glory); and that you mayest be an holy people unto Yahweh your God, as He hath spoken.

Holy means set-apart. If Yahweh chose us, set us apart to be His peculiar people as He promised our ancestors, and that we would be high above all nations, ...then wouldn't He be a liar if He chose other people, set them apart to be His peculiar people too and promise them the things which He promised our forefathers?

The 'churches' are the ones teaching that God accepts strangers of all kinds.

Chapter 27 Moses reminds the people to keep all the commandments of God.

The Levites spoke unto the children of Israel about all the curses that would come upon them if they break these laws.

Cursed is the man that makes graven images.

Cursed is he that dishonors his father and mother.

Cursed is he that removes his neighbour's boundary marker.

Cursed is he that makes the ignorant to wander out of The Way.

Deuteronomy 27:19 ​​ Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment (justice) of the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman), fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amen.  ​​​​ (Lev 22:21-22)

Cursed is he that lies with his father's wife, or any of his close relatives or in-laws.

Cursed is he that lies with a beast.

Cursed is he that slays his neigbour secretly.

And cursed is he that confirms not all the words of this law to do them.

Chapter 28 contains the blessings that come with obedience and the curses that come with disobedience.

Deuteronomy 28:1 ​​ And it shall come to pass, if you shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of Yahweh your God, to observe and to do all His commandments which I command you this day, that Yahweh your God will set you on high above all nations of the earth:  ​​​​ (Ex 15:26)

​​ 28:2 ​​ And all these blessings shall come on you, and overtake you, if you shalt hearken unto the voice of Yahweh your God.

Verses 3-14 list how you will be blessed.

​​ 28:15 ​​ But it shall come to pass, if you wilt not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh your God, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes which I command you this day; that all these curses shall come upon you, and overtake you:

Verses 16-68 list how you will be cursed.

​​ 28:43 ​​ The stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner) that is within (among) you shall get up above you very high; and you shalt come down very low.

Ger is usually a sojourning kinsman.

But none of these words for strangers can be used as a universal application to identify race. We have to understand the context in which is it used and the laws that apply to certain strangers.

This ger stranger is evidently a foreigner, non-kindred alien, that is among us.

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments

Deuteronomy 28:43. The stranger that is within thee — Within thy gates; who formerly honoured and served thee, and were, some of them, glad of the crumbs which fell from thy table. Shall get above thee very high — Shall rise to great wealth and prosperity upon thy ruin.

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low.

These references are all about the non-kindred strangers that receive our blessings when we are disobedient.

Judges 2:3,11-15; 4:2,3; 10:7-10; 14:4; 15:11,12; 1Samuel 13:3-7,19-23; 2Kings 17:20,23; 24:14-16; 1Chronicles 10:7; 2Chronicles 28:19; Psalm 37:21, 79:8, 89:42; Ecclesiastes 6:2; Isaiah 1:7; Lamentations 1:5, 2:17, 5:8; Ezekiel 17:14; John 18:31, 19:15.

Chapter 29 is about making sure the people and their children after them continue to keep the covenant.

Deuteronomy 29:9 ​​ Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.

​​ 29:10 ​​ Ye stand this day all of you before Yahweh your God; your captains of your tribes, your elders, and your officers, with all the men of Israel,

​​ 29:11 ​​ Your little ones, your wives, and your stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that is in your camp, from the hewer of your wood unto the drawer of your water:

​​ 29:12 ​​ That you shouldest enter into covenant with Yahweh your God, and into His oath, which Yahweh your God maketh with you this day:

​​ 29:13 ​​ That He may establish you to day for a people (H5971-am-kindred nation) unto Himself, and that He may be unto you a God, as He hath said unto you, and as He hath sworn unto your (fore) fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

So many Hebrew words that define kindred, and so many references to the children of Israel and our forefathers, and so many name drops of our forefathers such as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Anyone who is not brainwashed by the Judeo-Christian false doctrines of churchianity and can think for themselves could see that this Bible is written by, to, for, and about the children of Israel and no one else.

But of course with 33,000 flavors of so-called Christianity and repetitive false teachings through the generations the exclusive message was changed to a universal message.

This is why it is important to study, and to continue in our amazing heritage and traditions, and to know who we are and to understand Whose we are.

​​ 29:14 ​​ Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath;

​​ 29:15 ​​ But with him that standeth here with us this day before Yahweh our God, and also with him that is not here with us this day:

So who are those not here with us this day? Is this speaking of the Gentiles?

No. The context is the same throughout the whole Bible.

Prove it.

Acts 2:39 ​​ For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Prince our God shall call.

Acts 2:39 is a repeat of the promise made unto the children of Israel.

​​ 29:16 ​​ (For you know how we have dwelt in the land of Egypt; and how we came through the nations which you passed by;

​​ 29:17 ​​ And you have seen their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them:)

​​ 29:18 ​​ Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from Yahweh our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood;

Greek: Hebrews 12:15 Watching closely that not any are lacking from the favor of Yahweh, “lest any root of bitterness springing up” would trouble you and by it many would be defiled,

This is referring to the provocation. What provocation?

The provocation mentioned in Psalms 95:8; Hebrews 3:8 and 15 where it says:

“Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness.”

This is speaking of the Exodus, and Paul is not speaking to the 'church' or Gentiles. He's speaking to Israelites who don't remember who their ancestors are.

​​ 29:19 ​​ And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst:

Referring to today's “church” teachings. That the law was “done away with” and that they are “saved” by their own declaration, an adopted Gentile and just awaiting the “rapture”.

The Hebrew reads: 19 “...though I walk in the stubbornness of my mind, to snatch away the moist and the dry.

​​ 29:20 ​​ Yahweh will not spare him, but then the anger of Yahweh and His jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and Yahweh shall blot out his name from under heaven.

So much for “personal salvation”. Declaring oneself “saved” is not taught in scripture.

​​ 29:21 ​​ And Yahweh shall separate him unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that are written in this book of the law:

​​ 29:22 ​​ So that the generation to come of your children that shall rise up after you, and the stranger (H5237- nokriy-foreigner) that shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues (smitings) of that land, and the sicknesses (ailments) which Yahweh hath laid upon it;

​​ 29:24 ​​ Even all nations shall say, Wherefore hath Yahweh done thus unto this land? what meaneth the heat of this great anger?  ​​​​ (1Ki 9:8-9, Jer 22:8-9)

Israelites, non-Israelites, and everyone in between will see that Yahweh judges His people when they forsake His covenant.

In verse 22 stranger is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

Chapter 31 is the appointment of Joshua.

Deuteronomy 31:10 ​​ And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,

​​ 31:11 ​​ When all Israel is come to appear before Yahweh your God in the place which He shall choose, you shalt read this law (the Torah) before all Israel in their hearing.

​​ 31:12 ​​ Gather the people together (H6950/H5971), men, and women, and children, and your stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that is within your gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear Yahweh your God, and observe to do all the words of this law:

​​ 31:13 ​​ And that their children, which have not known any thing, may hear, and learn to fear Yahweh your God, as long as you live in the land whither you go over Jordan to possess it.

Psalm 78:1 Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.

78:2 ​​ I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter riddles of old:

78:3 ​​ Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.

78:4 ​​ We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the generation to come the praises of Yahweh, and His strength, and His wonderful works that He hath done.

78:5 ​​ For He established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:

​​ 78:6 ​​ That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:

78:7 ​​ That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments:

​​ 31:14 ​​ And Yahweh said unto Moses, Behold, your days approach that you must die: call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting), that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the tabernacle of the congregation (tent of meeting).

​​ 31:15 ​​ And Yahweh appeared in the tabernacle in a pillar of a cloud: and the pillar of the cloud stood over the door of the tabernacle.

​​ 31:16 ​​ And Yahweh said unto Moses, Behold, you shalt sleep with your (fore) fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers (H5236- nekar) of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake Me, and break My covenant which I have made with them.

Stranger is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

It should read '...and go a whoring after the gods of the foreigners of the land.'

The rest of chapter 31 is God's prophecy that we would forsake Him and break His covenant, and He will be angered and forsake us, and hide His face from us, and many troubles and afflictions will befall us. Yahweh commands Moses to write a song to teach to the children of Israel, to put it in their mouths, so that this song be a witness for Him against the children of Israel.

Chapter 32 is the Song of Moses.

We won't cover the whole song in this study but our study on the stranger continues with verse 12, after Yahweh states His portion is His people: Jacob is the lot of His inheritance.

Deuteronomy 32:12 ​​ So Yahweh alone did lead him, and there was no strange (H5236- nekar) god with him.

Strange is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Yahweh alone did lead the children of Jacob, and there was no foreign god with them.

Foreign god. Nekar refers to strange/allotrios gods G245. Allotrios occurs in the NT 13 times (in Matt 17:25-26; Luk 16:12; Jn 10:5; Acts 7:6; Rom 14:4, 15:20; 2Cor 10:15-16; 1Tim 5:22; Heb 9:25, 11:9, 34).

Allotrios means other, belonging to another, or foreign. We will cover the Greek words when we get to the Renewed Covenant.

​​ 32:15 ​​ But Jeshurun waxed fat (prospered), and kicked (rebelled): you are waxen fat, you are grown thick, you are covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.

Jeshurun is a symbolic name of Jacob/Israel. His children. It means pleasant, prosperous, straight, upright.

Our people got fat and happy and forgot Yahweh.

​​ 32:16 ​​ They provoked Him to jealousy with strange (H2114- zur-alien, unusual, uncustomary, profane, others) gods, with abominations provoked they Him to anger.

The italicized word 'gods' is not in the original texts.

The language is borrowed from the matrimonial relationship. Deut 31:16.

In case you were not aware, our ancestors were married unto Yahweh. When they broke His covenant He divorced them. This divorce happened starting in 745 BC in which God scattered His people and put them away in punishment, which resulted in them forgetting who they were and Whose they were, and their relationship to their own kinsmen. This is because Yahweh God sent the Assyrians and later the Babylonians to destroy them, their cities, and carry away the survivors into captivity. When Yahshua Christ came the Gospel message was to the descendants of these scattered Israelites who were 'lost' and walking in darkness.

The Gospel was not for the 'church' or 'Gentiles' or the other races. The Gospel is the fulfilling of the prophecies made with the BC Israelites in their AD descendants and continues today to the AD Israelite's descendants who are still walking in darkness, many of whom are in the 'churches' identifying as Gentiles and believing that the Jews are the Israelites.

See how bad our heritage, our traditions, our promises and covenants and our family household has been defiled by the strangers?

Did you know that the song American Pie is about the result of what the Song of Moses warned us about?

See the whole amazing breakdown here: https://www.thinkoutsidethebeast.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/American_Pie.pdf

In Deuteronomy we saw 4 different Hebrew words for stranger.

Ger, a noun, used 22x, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Instead of 'stranger(s)' it should read 'sojourners' or 'sojourning kinsmen'.

Nekar, a noun, used 2x, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Instead of 'strange(r)' it should read 'one not of her husband's brother's side' and 'alien ones'.

Nokriy, an adjective, used 5x, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

Instead of 'stranger' it should read ​​ 'racial alien' or 'foreign one'.

Zur, a verb, used 2x, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

Instead of 'strange(r)' it should read 'uncustomary' or 'unaccustomed one' or 'one not of the sons of Aaron'. Instead of 'stranger' it should read 'uncustomary' or 'unaccustomed one'.

Chapter 8 is about the destruction of Ai.

Ai was a Canaanite city east of Bethel and near Jericho and the 2nd city taken by the Israelites when they entered Canaan. Joshua then built an altar unto Yahweh in mount Ebal, offered a burnt offering and peace offerings and wrote there upon the stones a copy of the law of Moses.

Joshua 8:33 ​​ And all Israel, and their elders, and officers, and their judges, stood on this side the ark and on that side before the priests the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, as well the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsmen), as he that was born (H249- ezrach-native) among them; half of them over against mount Gerizim, and half of them over against mount Ebal; as Moses the servant of Yahweh had commanded before, that they should bless the people of Israel.

​​ 8:34 ​​ And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law.

​​ 8:35 ​​ There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua read not before all the congregation of Israel, with the women, and the little ones, and the strangers (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsmen) that were conversant among them.

Yahweh's law must be posted at every entrance to Israelite land, property and door posts (mezuzah).

Stranger in verses 33 and 35 is H1616, ger, a noun, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

In this context, a sojourning kinsman.

Chapter 20 is about the six cities of refuge.

Joshua 20:9 ​​ These were the cities appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger (H1616- ger-sojourning kinsman) that sojourneth (H1481- gur-dwells as a guest, abides) among them, that whosoever killeth any person at unawares (by accident) might flee thither, and not die by the hand of the (kinsman) avenger of blood, until he stood before the congregation.

Chapter 24 is about the covenant renewed and the death of Joshua.

This is the chapter were the Israelites are reminded of all that Yahweh had done for them, that they should put away the gods which their forefathers served on the other side of the flood and to serve Yahweh. Joshua said “but as for me and my house, we will serve Yahweh.' And the people agreed.

Joshua 24:19 ​​ And Joshua said unto the people, Ye cannot (are not able to) serve Yahweh: for He is an holy (set apart) God; He is a jealous God; He will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins.

You cannot serve Yahweh if you are a habitual sinner.

Matthew 6:24 ​​ No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

​​ 24:20 ​​ If ye forsake Yahweh, and serve strange (H5236- nekar-foreign) gods, then He will turn and do you hurt, and consume you, after that He hath done you good.

​​ 24:21 ​​ And the people said unto Joshua, Nay; but we will serve Yahweh.

​​ 24:22 ​​ And Joshua said unto the people, Ye are witnesses against yourselves that ye have chosen you Yahweh, to serve Him. And they said, We are witnesses.

​​ 24:23 ​​ Now therefore put away, said he, the strange (H5236- nekar-foreign) gods which are among you, and incline your heart unto Yahweh God of Israel.

​​ 24:24 ​​ And the people said unto Joshua, Yahweh our God will we serve, and His voice will we obey.

Strange in verse 20 is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Foreign gods. Those idols which you either brought out of Egypt, or have taken in Canaan.

In Joshua we saw 2 different Hebrew words for stranger.

Ger, a noun, used 3x, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

Instead of 'stranger(s)' it should read 'sojourning kinsmen'.

Nekar, a noun, used 2x, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Instead of 'strange gods' it should read 'foreign gods', or 'gods of the foreigner'.

After Tola the son of Puah, and Jair the Gileadite died...

Judges 10:6 ​​ And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of Yahweh, and served Baalim (the LORD Ba'al), and Ashtaroth (Easter), and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook Yahweh, and served not Him.

So Yahweh delivered the children of Israel into the hands of the Philistines and the children of Ammon who oppressed them. And they cried unto Yahweh.

​​ 10:11 ​​ And Yahweh said unto the children of Israel, Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?

​​ 10:12 ​​ The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and ye cried to Me, and I delivered you out of their hand.

​​ 10:13 ​​ Yet ye have forsaken Me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more.

​​ 10:14 ​​ Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation (distress, affliction, adversity).

​​ 10:15 ​​ And the children of Israel said unto Yahweh, We have sinned: do You unto us whatsoever seemeth good unto You; deliver us only, we pray You, this day.

​​ 10:16 ​​ And they put away the strange (H5236- nekar-gods of the foreigner) gods from among them, and served Yahweh: and His soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.

Strange is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

It should read '...the gods of the foreigner from among them...'. Foreign gods.

Story of a Levite

Judges 19:1 ​​ And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite sojourning (H1481- gur-dwelling, abiding) on the side of mount Ephraim, who took to him a concubine out of Bethlehemjudah.

This concubine committed whoring against him and went away to her father's house for four months. The Levite then went to speak unto her to bring her back. The father welcomed him and urged him to stay a few days, to eat, drink, and lodge there. After the 5th day the Levite, his concubine and his servant rose up to depart and came over against Jebus, which is Jerusalem.

The Jebusites were Canaanites and the original inhabitants of Jerusalem.

​​ 19:11 ​​ And when they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said unto his master, Come, I pray you, and let us turn in into this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it.

​​ 19:12 ​​ And his master said unto him, We will not turn aside hither into the city of a stranger (H5237- nokriy-foreigner), that is not of the children of Israel; we will pass over to Gibeah.  ​​​​ (Josh 18:28)

Stranger is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

These Jebusites were nokriym, meaning they were not Israelites.

That is, of a strange, or foreign nation; Jebus was a city which the Canaanites possess.

So they passed on and went their way to Gibeah, which belonged to the tribe of Benjamin.

​​ 19:15 ​​ And they turned aside thither, to go in and to lodge in Gibeah: and when he went in, he sat him down in a street of the city: for there was no man that took them into his house to lodging.

Matthew 25:43 ​​ I was a stranger, and ye took Me not in: naked, and ye clothed Me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited Me not.

​​ 19:16 ​​ And, behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even, which was also of mount Ephraim; and he sojourned (H1481- gur-abode-dwelt) in Gibeah: but the men of the place were Benjamites.

The Benjaminites did not receive this Levite, his concubine, and servant into their homes.

The old man took them in. Then the Benjaminites, who were pagan homosexuals, beat on the door and demanded the Levite to come out so they can do wickedness unto him. Long story short, they ravaged the man's concubine. He then cut her into 12 pieces and sent them to all the territories of Israel. At this time the Benjaminites had fallen into idolatry and homosexuality, so the men of Israel gathered as one man against their city. And they asked council of God and they warred against the Benjaminites and slayed a great many of them.

It's interesting the last verse of Matthew 25 reads: Matthew 25:46 ​​ And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

So we see the strangers in Jebus were non-Israelites. Nokriy in this context is identifying Canaanites, which Israelites are not kinsmen to.

When the Levite and his company came into the land of Benjamin, who were their kinsmen, the Benjaminites did not show brotherly love. They showed the wickedness of their homosexuality, brutality, and took not in the sojourning kinsman. So they were destroyed, and as verse 46 of Matthew states, eternal punishment, because what we do to our kinsmen, is what we do to Yahweh.

In Judges we saw 2 Hebrew words for stranger.

Nekar, a noun, used 1x, and means foreign, alien. Different.

'Strange gods' which should read 'gods of the foreigner.'

Nokriy, an adjective, used 1x, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

'Stranger' should read 'foreigner'. In the context, a non-Israelite. The Jebusites were Canaanites.

Ruth 1:1 ​​ Now it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehemjudah went to sojourn (H1481- gur-dwell, abide) in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons. ​​ 

​​ 1:2 ​​ And the name of the man was Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehemjudah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there.

​​ 1:3 ​​ And Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two sons.

​​ 1:4 ​​ And they took them wives of the women of Moab (Israelite wives of the territory of Moab); the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelled there about ten years.

​​ 1:5 ​​ And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of them; and the woman was left of her two sons and her husband.

The land of Moab was the land of Gad, Reuben and ½ of Mannasseh.

When the Israelites entered the Promised Land, after their 40 years wandering in the Exodus, the land of Moab was the first territory they conquered. (Num 21:25-29) ​​ Yahweh had commanded them to totally exterminate the former occupants of the lands they were to settle: and in Moab, they did so. At that time, about 1450 BC. Sihon, King of the Amorites, had conquered and occupied the kingdom of Moab, and was it's ruler when the Israelites came in.

Three hundred years later, about 1143 BC, we find evidence that the Israelite occupation of the lands of Moab and Ammon was still unbroken (Judges 11:12-26).

Israel dwelt in these lands for at least 400 years.

The story of Ruth happened only 3 generations before David, and just before the days of Samuel the prophet, who anointed Saul as the first King of Israel.

Ruth was David's great-grandmother.

Naomi and her two daughters-in-law went on their way to the land of Judah.

Ruth 2:1 ​​ And Naomi had a kinsman of her husband's, a mighty man of wealth, of the family of Elimelech; and his name was Boaz.

​​ 2:2 ​​ And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean (gather) ears of corn (grain) after him in whose sight I shall find grace (favor). And she said unto her, Go, my daughter.

Boaz was following the law and allowing the poor to glean his fields. Ruth caught his eye and he asked his servant, Whose damsel is this?

​​ 2:6 ​​ And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It is the Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab:

​​ 2:7 ​​ And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves: so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, that she tarried a little in the house.

​​ 2:8 ​​ Then said Boaz unto Ruth, You have heard, have you not my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens:

​​ 2:9 ​​ Let your eyes be on the field that they do reap, and go you after them: have I not charged the young men that they shall not touch you? and when you art athirst, go unto the vessels, and drink of that which the young men have drawn.

​​ 2:10 ​​ Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said unto him, Why have I found grace in your eyes, that you shouldest take knowledge of me, seeing I am a stranger (H5237- nokriy/xenos G3581 -a foreign one)?

Notice that Ruth stated that she was a nokriy. Ruth was mistaken about her identity.

​​ 2:11 ​​ And Boaz answered and said unto her, It hath fully been shewed me, all that you hast done unto your mother in law since the death of your husband: and how you hast left your father and your mother, and the land of your nativity (birth), and art come unto a people (H5971-am) which you knewest not heretofore.

The 'churches' teach that Ruth was a Moabite by race.

If this were true, then King David would be Moabite, which would make Jesus Christ Moabite, which would make them both bastards.

Deuteronomy 23:2 ​​ A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of Yahweh; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of Yahweh.

23:3 ​​ An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of Yahweh; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of Yahweh for ever:

Ruth was not a Moabite by race. Ruth was an Israelite likely of the tribe of Ephraim living in the land that was once the Moabites. The tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh settled there.

When Ruth came with Naomi to the land of Judah, Ruth knew she was a foreigner, but obviously did not know she was kin to Naomi, Boaz, and the people in Judah. The same thing happened in the days of Christ where the Israelites of Judaea did not know the scattered 'lost' Israelites living among the nations were their kinsmen. The same thing happens today where our people don't realize that we are kinsmen to the other White nations of the world. The 'churches' have even taught our people to identify as transGentiles. Most of our people have no clue who they are.

So how do we know Ruth was a kinswoman?

Deuteronomy 23:2 does not apply to Ruth because she was not a Moabite. If she were, she, David, Solomon, and Jesus would also be banned from the congregation for being bastards.

Verse 11 of chapter 2 states Ruth is 'come unto a people which she knewest not heretofore.'

People is H5971 am, which means a congregated unit, members of one's people, a tribe, flock, kindred.

Verse 20 Naomi tells Ruth that Boaz is 'near of kin unto us, one of our next kinsmen.'

In chapter 3 verse 9, Boaz wakes up to find Ruth laying at his feet and when he asked her 'Who are you?', Ruth replied 'I am Ruth your handmaid: spread therefore your skirt over your handmaid; for you are a near kinsman.'

In verses 12- ​​ Boaz says he knows he is a near kinsman, and he knows the law of performing the part of a kinsman (Deut 25:5), so he tells her that she has a kinsman nearer than he to her, and if he does not do the kinsman's part, then Boaz himself will do the part of a kinsman unto her. Long story short, the nearer kinsman did not want to do the part, so Boaz was legally next in line, and in the face of witnesses he acquired Ruth to be his wife. Fulfilling the law found in Deuteronomy 25:6 in which their firstborn would bear the name of Ruth's dead husband, that his name be not put out of Israel.

If Ruth were not an Israelite, then she would not have been redeemed by Boaz.

The 'churches' do not know biblical history, the conquest of territories by the Israelites, the identity of who is who in scripture, the message of scripture, or the laws of the kinsman redeemer. So as a result they teach lies, false doctrines, and spew blasphemy.

In Ruth we saw the Hebrew word nokriy used for stranger.

Stranger is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish. It can also mean non-native Israelites (Ruth).

Although nokriy is usually used for non-Israelites, the context shows in Ruth that nokriy is used to identify foreign Israelite kindreds. Not a citizen of Bethlehem, nor one of the commonwealth of Israel.

Ruth called herself a nokriy stranger because she was an Israelite woman from a foreign land that was once occupied by Moabites.

Ruth is a Parable

The story of Ruth and Boaz is a Messianic comparison of Israel’s relationship to our Kinsman Redeemer, Jesus Christ.

See: Ruth ​​ https://www.ageoflaodicea.com/ruth/ (the parable explanation is after chapter 4)

The Israelites were being smitten by the Philistines because the children of Israel had strayed from Yahweh and served the gods of the foreigner.

1Samuel 7:3 ​​ And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return unto Yahweh with all your hearts, then put away the strange (H5236- nekar-foreign) gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto Yahweh, and serve Him only: and He will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.

​​ 7:4 ​​ Then the children of Israel did put away Baalim and Ashtaroth, and served Yahweh only.

Stranger ​​ is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Foreign gods. Put them out of your houses, where some of you keep them; and out of your hearts, where they still have an interest in many of you.

It should read 'the gods of the foreigner'.

After the death of Saul, when David returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, a man came out of the camp of Israel to David and told him Saul and his son Jonathan are dead. The man said he saw Saul who was injured, and Saul told him to slay him. And the man brought David his crown and bracelet.

2Samuel 1:12 ​​ And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Yahweh, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.

​​ 1:13 ​​ And David said unto the young man that told him, Where are you from? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger (H1616- ger-sojourner)(and H376- iysh), an Amalekite.

​​ 1:14 ​​ And David said unto him, How wast you not afraid to stretch forth your hand to destroy Yahweh's anointed?

​​ 1:15 ​​ And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him that he died.

​​ 1:16 ​​ And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon your head; for your mouth hath testified against you, saying, I have slain Yahweh's anointed.

Septuagint: “...I am the son of an Amalekite sojourner.”

Why did David slay him?

Because the Amalekites are descendants of Esau, and because....

Exodus 17:16 ​​ For he said, Because Yahweh hath sworn that Yahweh will have war with Amalek from generation to generation. (and He shall completely blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.-vs 15)

Esau is the father of the Edomite Jews. Amalek was a grandson of Esau, and the Amalekites were mortal enemies of the children of Israel. Because Esau took the daughter's of Heth to wife, Esau's children were part Canaanite. Not only were the Amalekites destroyed, but Yahweh will finish off the rest of Esau's children when the prophecy of Obadiah is fulfilled.

The children of Esau are the people of Yahweh's curse (Isa 34:5).

The children of Jacob are the Anointed people of Yahweh's choice. David slayed the Amalekite sojourner because he slayed Saul. Saul was one of Yahweh's Anointed, even though Saul was not a good king.

There is a big difference between Yahweh's Anointed people, and the stranger.

1Chronicles 16:21 ​​ He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, He reproved kings for their sakes,

16:22 ​​ Saying, Touch not Mine anointed, and do My prophets no harm. ​​ (Psa 105:15)

Chapter 15 is about Absolom's revolt. Absolom was a son of David's. Absolom turned the hearts of the men of Israel towards him and they went after David. So David took his household and tarried in a place that was far off.

2Samuel 15:18 ​​ And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men which came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.

​​ 15:19 ​​ Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite, Wherefore goest you also with us? return to your place, and abide with the king: for you art a stranger (H5237- nokriy-foreigner), and also an exile.

​​ 15:20 ​​ Whereas you camest but yesterday, should I this day make you go up and down with us? seeing I go whither I may, return you, and take back your brethren: mercy and truth be with you.

​​ 15:21 ​​ And Ittai answered the king, and said, As Yahweh liveth, and as my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will your servant be.

Strangers is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish. It can also mean non-native Israelites (Ruth).

Ittai the Gittite, was he an Israelite?

Gittites - During David's residence in the country of the Philistines he attached such a band to himself; and after the settlement of his kingdom, and the subjugation of the Philistines, the band received recruits from Gath, perhaps with the king of Gath's consent. They were now under the command of Ittai the Gittite, a foreigner 2 Samuel 15:19, and "his brethren" 2 Samuel 15:20. The number 600 probably indicates that this band or regiment of Gittites had its origin in David's band of 600 1 Samuel 23:13; 1 Samuel 27:2. They were at first, it is likely, all Israelites, then Gittites mixed with Israelites, and at last all Gittites.

Ittai was likely a nokriy foreigner, like Ruth, meaning a non-native Israelite.

Not much concerned in our affairs, and therefore thou oughtest not to be involved in our troubles. And, as a stranger, thou mayest hope to be civilly treated by Absalom.

Not a native of Israel, but born in another nation, and at a distance from it, and therefore not altogether under the same obligations to attend David in his troubles as others were; and by this it seems that he was a Gittite by nation, whatever the six hundred men were, and rather favours the first sense given of them in 2 Samuel 15:18.

Thou camest but yesterday - Meaning, "Thou art not a native Israelite, but only a sojourner for a few years, it is not reason therefore that thou shouldst share my calamities. Return to thy place, thy adopted home Jerusalem, and to the king, Absalom" 2 Samuel 15:34-35.

Gill commentary: These were Israelites, likely, because with David they sojourned in Gath a while, when he fled from Saul; and so Josephus says, they were companions of him in his first flight, when Saul was living; and this number is just the number of the men that were with him at Gath,1 Samuel 27:2.

The Gittites were likely Levites because they were appointed doorkeepers for the ark in the house of Obededom. 2Sam 6:10.

Chapter 22 is David's psalm of praise.

Verses 2-51 are almost identical to Psalm 18.

David thanks and praises Yahweh for delivering him out of the hand of all his hated enemies, and out of the hand of Saul.

Yahweh, the God of his Rock, in Him will he take refuge, He is his shield, the power of his salvation, his high tower.

2Samuel 22:44 ​​ You also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, You hast kept me to be head of the heathen (nations): a people which I knew not shall serve me.

​​ 22:45 ​​ Strangers (H5236- nekar)(and H1121) (Sons of foreigners) shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.

Geneva notes have: Not willingly obeying me, but deceitfully.

​​ 22:46 ​​ Strangers (H5236- nekar)(and H1121) (Sons of foreigners) shall fade away (from discouragement), and they shall be afraid out of their close places (strongholds).

​​ 22:47 ​​ Yahweh liveth; and blessed be my Rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.

​​ 22:48 ​​ It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,

​​ 22:49 ​​ And that bringeth me forth from mine (H341-hated) enemies: You also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: You hast delivered me from the violent man.

​​ 22:50 ​​ Therefore I will give thanks unto You, O Yahweh, among the heathen (nations), and I will sing praises unto Your name.

​​ 22:51 ​​ He is the tower of salvation for His king: and sheweth mercy (loving-commitment) to His anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.

We see these nekar strangers in verses 45-46 are sons of the foreigners. Non-kindred aliens. Their obedience was not willingly, but in discouragement, because Yahweh gave them into David's hands.

1KINGS

Chapter 3 is Solomon's prayer for wisdom.

Yahweh came to Solomon in a dream and asked him what shall He give him. Solomon asked for wisdom and understanding. When Solomon awoke, he came to Jerusalem and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings and made a feast to all his servants.

Then came there two women and stood before him.

1Kings 3:17 ​​ And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.

​​ 3:18 ​​ And it came to pass the third day after that I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also: and we were together; there was no stranger (H2114- zur-other, no one else) with us in the house, save we two in the house.

​​ 3:19 ​​ And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.

​​ 3:20 ​​ And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while your handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.

We all know the rest of the story. Solomon's decisions forced the real mother to be known.

The Septuagint has: “... and there was no one with us besides our two selves in the house.”

Stranger is H2114, zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

This stranger simply means, no one else.

In chapter 8, the Ark is brought to the Temple during the Feast of Tabernacles.

Solomon assembles the elders of Israel, all the heads of the tribes, the priests, the chiefs of the fathers and all the men of Israel. And all the congregation of Israel.

Now remember,...

Deuteronomy 23:2 ​​ A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of Yahweh; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of Yahweh.

1Kings 8:22 ​​ And Solomon stood before the altar of Yahweh in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven (the sky):

Solomon's Temple prayer.

​​ 8:23 ​​ And he said, Yahweh God of Israel, there is no God like You, in heaven (the sky) above, or on earth (the land) beneath, who keepest covenant and mercy with Your servants that walk before You with all their heart:

Notice who Solomon is speaking about to Yahweh, the God of Israel. The people whom Yahweh keeps covenant and mercy with. Yahweh's servants. Yahweh's people Israel.

In verses 31-32 he prays for the man who trespasses against his neighbor by breaking an oath between them, that Yahweh would deal with the wicked and justify the righteous.

Trespass is H2398 chata (khaw-taw') and means to sin, to miss the mark of duty.

Neighbour is H7453 rea' reya', and means a brother, a friend, fellow citizen. The related word H7462 ra'ah means to tend a flock, figuratively of people.

Only Israelites are referred to as a flock.

The next few verses continue to identify and pray for 'Your people Israel', and in verse 38 Solomon says...

​​ 8:38 ​​ What prayer and supplication soever be made by any man (H120), or by all Your people Israel, which shall know every man the plague (calamity) of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:

​​ 8:39 ​​ Then hear You in heaven (the sky) Your dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart You knowest; (for You, even You only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men (H120);)

​​ 8:40 ​​ That they may fear (revere) You all the days that they live in the land which You gavest unto our (fore) fathers. ​​ 

Man in verses 38-39 is H120 adam. The other races are not identified by H120 adam anywhere in Scripture.

​​ 8:41 ​​ Moreover concerning a stranger (H5237- nokriy-foreigner), that is not of Your people Israel, but cometh out of a far country for Your name's sake;  ​​​​ (2Chr 6:32-nokriy)

​​ 8:42 ​​ (For they shall hear of Your great name, and of Your strong hand, and of Your stretched out arm;) when he shall come and pray toward this house;

​​ 8:43 ​​ Hear You in heaven (the sky) Your dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger (H5237- nokriy-foreigner) calleth to You for: that all people of the earth (land) may know Your name, to fear (revere) You, as do Your people Israel; and that they may know that this house, which I have builded, is called by Your name.  ​​​​ (2Chr 6:33-nokriy)

Stranger is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish. It can also mean non-native Israelites (Ruth)(Ittai the Gittite). It can also mean foreign Adamic kinsmen.

An Adamic proselyte may come to the temple to pray to the God of Israel, being convinced of the folly and wickedness of worshiping the gods of his country.

Verse 41 is not talking about the other races, Yahweh demands we be separate from them, and they are not allowed into the congregation (Deut 23:2).

In verse 41, a stranger, that is not of Thy people Israel, would be referring to Adamic kinsmen.

All Israelites are Adamites. Not all Adamites are Israelites.

Adamites are of the Genesis chapter 10 nations. All the branches of the sons of Adam from Seth to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. These would be those nations such as the Assyrians, Syrians, Hebrews, some Greeks, Arameans, and other Adamic kinsmen.

Solomon ends his prayer continuing to ask for Yahweh to forgive His people, His inheritance, and reminds Him that He did separate them from among all the people of the earth.

He then stood and blessed all the congregation of Israel, and that Yahweh would incline all their hearts unto their God to keep the commands He gave to their forefathers.

If Solomon was praying for the other races, and that they could come to the Temple and pray to the God of Israel, then Solomon would be violating the Ways of Yahweh, which he most certainly did in his latter years.

Even up to the time of Jesus Christ, the Temple was off limits to even the Greeks (Acts 21:29 Trophimus). But Trophimus was an Israelite from Greece.

1Kings 11:1 ​​ But king Solomon loved many strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign) women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;

​​ 11:2 ​​ Of the nations concerning which Yahweh said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.

Strange in verse 1 is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish. It can also mean non-native Israelites (Ruth)(Ittai the Gittite)(Adamic foreigners in Solomon's prayer).

We know that the daughter of Pharaoh was Queen of Sheba. Sheba was son of Cush, a grandson of Noah through Ham. There was also a Sheba begat by Joktan, a descendant of Shem. There was also a Sheba begat by Jokshan, a son begat by Abraham and Keturah. Each of these three Shebas were Adamic men. The location of Sheba was in southwest Arabia.

The queen of Sheba would be an Adamic nokriy foreign kinswoman.

The Moabite and Ammonite women, even if they were still pure-blooded Hebrews, would still be unacceptable because they were children of incest.

The Zidonians were also tribes of incest through Canaan and had mixed with Cain's children.

The other strange women in verse 1 that were racial alien foreign nokriy women not of the race of Adam were the Edomites and Hittites.

The Edomites were children of Esau, who mixed with the daughters of Heth, a Hittite, which the Hittites had also mixed with the children of Cain.

In case you are not aware, the Edomites are the Jews. Jews are descendants of Cain and later of Esau.

You can say that Solomon became the Huge Hefner in the Playboy mansion of his time.

The Jews love Solomon, because Solomon was a race-mixer and he adopted the star of Remphan, the six-pointed star which is not the star of David.

​​ 11:6 ​​ And Solomon did evil in the sight of Yahweh, and went not fully after Yahweh, as did David his father.

​​ 11:7 ​​ Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.

​​ 11:8 ​​ And likewise did he for all his strange (H5237- nokriy-racially foreign) wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.

His unlawful alien wives pulled him away from his own race and from Yahweh.

Yahweh rent the kingdom in two because of this.

1Kings 17:1 ​​ And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants (H8453- toshab-settlers) of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As Yahweh God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.

Inhabitants is H8453 toshab, a noun, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident.

Gill commentary: Elijah was at first of a city called Toshab.

Barnes commentary: The two words rendered "Tishbite" and "inhabitant" are in the original (setting aside the vowel points) "exactly alike." The meaning consequently must either be "Elijah the stranger, of the strangers of Gilead," or (more probably) "Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbi of Gilead."

Elijah was an Israelite. Some believe he was of the tribe of Manasseh, some say of Naphtali.

2Kings 19:23 ​​ By your messengers you hast reproached Yahweh, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.

​​ 19:24 ​​ I (Sennacherib) have digged and drunk strange (H2114- zur) waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of besieged places.

Strange is H2114, zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, an alien, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

It should read 'I have digged and I drank waters of alien ones...'.

Sennacherib boasts 'I have drunk strange waters', meaning (waters of another place, waters of others). Sennacherib was an Assyrian. Wherever he went he conquered, and drank of the waters of the lands he came into.

Preparing for the temple

1Chronicles 22:1 ​​ Then David said, This is the house of Yahweh God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.

The Temple was not built yet. The threshingfloor of Ornan was on Mt. Moriah where Abraham went to offer Isaac to Yahweh. The Temple would be built by Solomon on this Mount. (2Chron 3:1).

​​ 22:2 ​​ And David commanded to gather together the strangers (H1616- ger-non-kindred sojourners) that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.

Strangers is H1616, ger, a noun, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant.

The same 'strangers' whom Solomon afterward employed in the same work; of which see 1Kings 5:15; 2Chr 2:17-18.

We see in 1Kings chapter 9 that those who were left in the land that were not destroyed became labourers, tributaries, and bondmen.

1Kings 9:20 ​​ And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, which were not of the children of Israel,

9:21 ​​ Their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel also were not able utterly to destroy, upon those did Solomon levy a tribute of bondservice unto this day.

These ger strangers were non-kindred peoples.

Chapter 29 is David's prayer.

David is speaking to all the congregation of Israel.

1Chronicles 29:13 ​​ Now therefore, our God, we thank You, and praise Your glorious name.

​​ 29:14 ​​ But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this? for all things come from You, and we have given You out of Your hand.

​​ 29:15 ​​ For we are strangers (H1616- ger-sojourners) before You, and sojourners (H8453- toshab-temporary residents, guests), as were all our (fore)fathers: our days on the earth (land) are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.

In verse 15 and in Psalm 39:12, David referred to himself and his fathers as temporary sojourners, toshab H8453/paroikos G3941 on the earth in this fleeting life.

Hebrews 11:13 ​​ These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers (xenos) and pilgrims (parepidemos) on the earth.

These paired words (the Hebrew ger and toshab, and the Greek xenos and parepidemos) do not teach that there are two groups of peoples, but rather that they all are Israelites in two different situations. When David said that he was a stranger and a sojourner [Ps 39:12], he was one person who was two things.

1Peter 2:11 ​​ Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers (G3941- paroikos) and pilgrims (G3927- parepidemos), abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

When we compare what David is saying in Psalm 39:12 with what Peter is saying in 1Peter 2:11, we find a common distinction. David refers to 'all my Fathers' who were, of course, Israelites. Peter is addressing the Elect and not others. This book of Peter is written to strangers [parepidemos: visitors] who were scattered.

When we look again at 1Peter 2:9 we find these particular strangers [of 1Peter 1:1] were:

​​ [a] Chosen … [Isaiah 41:8 … Jacob whom I have chosen]

​​ [b] A Royal Priesthood … [Isaiah 61:1 , Hosea 4:6 etc.]

​​ [c] An Holy Nation … [Deut 14:2] Please note that “nation” is singular in this context. Some may still wish to deny these “holy” (set-apart) people still exist as being different from all other nations. But Peter knew they still existed when he wrote to them.

​​ [d] A peculiar people [Exodus 19:5 , Deut 26:18 , Psalm 135:4].

When we go to the book of Hebrews and consider these pilgrims and strangers, the Fathers and the “Patriarchs” are prominent. God who spoke to these Fathers by the Prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son.

Hebrews 11:13 ​​ These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers (G3581- xenos) and pilgrims (G3927- parepidemos) on the earth.

In Hebrews 11:13 the pilgrims and strangers are Israelites because the book is written to the Hebrews; those whose Fathers had been given the Law of Moses.

Ephesians 2:12 ​​ That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens (G526- apallotrioo) from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers (G3581- xenos) from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

​​ 2:19 ​​ Now therefore ye are no more strangers (G3581- xenos) and foreigners (G3941- paroikos), but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

Strangers and aliens are not necessarily two completely dissimilar groups of people in Ephesians 2:12 and Ephesians 2:19. In this case they are one group of people who are two things. Strangers and foreigners. This follows exactly the same pattern as presented in the Old Testament.

Chapter 2 is the preparing to build the Temple.

2Chronicles 2:17 ​​ And Solomon numbered all the strangers (H1616- ger-non-kindred sojourners)(and H376- iysh-mortals) that were in the land of Israel, after the numbering wherewith David his father had numbered them; and they were found an hundred and fifty thousand and three thousand and six hundred.

​​ 2:18 ​​ And he set threescore and ten thousand of them to be bearers of burdens, and fourscore thousand to be hewers in the mountain, and three thousand and six hundred overseers to make the people work.

1Ki 5:13-18, 9:20-21, and 2Chr 2:17-18 Solomon numbered the non-kindred strangers who were left in the land. The Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.

Some bible commentators state that these non-kindred peoples were not idolaters, other wise they would not have been allowed by David and Solomon to have dwelt in the land.

Asa's reform movement

2Chronicles 14:2 ​​ And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of Yahweh his God:

​​ 14:3 ​​ For he took away the altars of the strange (H5236- nekar-foreigner) gods, and the high places, and brake down the images (sun pillars), and cut down the groves (poles of Asherah):

​​ 14:4 ​​ And commanded Judah to seek Yahweh God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.

Strange is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Foreign gods. Or of a strange people, of the Zidonians, Ammonites, and Moabites, which had remained from the times of Solomon.

It should read 'For he took away the altars of the foreigner,...'.

2Chronicles 15:1 ​​ And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:

​​ 15:2 ​​ And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear you me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; ​​ Yahweh is with you, while you be with Him; and if you seek Him, He will be found of you; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you.

Azariah reminds the people that for a long time they were without the true God, a teaching priest, and the Torah. So in those times there was no peace, and nation was destroyed by nation. He encouraged them to be strong in returning to Yahweh and they would be rewarded.

​​ 15:8 ​​ And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of Yahweh, that was before the porch of Yahweh.

​​ 15:9 ​​ And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers (H1481- gur-the ones dwelling) (sojourning kinsmen) with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that Yahweh his God was with Him.

We know these strangers are Israelites, as they came out of Ephraim and Manasseh and Simeon. They also entered into a covenant to seek Yahweh God of their forefathers.

Chapter 30 is about observing the Passover.

2Chronicles 30:1 ​​ And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of Yahweh at Jerusalem, to keep the passover unto Yahweh God of Israel.

King Hezekiah of Judah wrote letters to all Israel and Judah. He didn't invite the 'church', Gentiles, or the other races.

The children of Israel were not gathered in time, and the priests were not sanctified to observe the Passover in the first month, so they were keeping the make-up date for the Passover in the second month.

​​ 30:5 ​​ So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the passover unto Yahweh God of Israel at Jerusalem: for they had not done it of a long time in such sort as it was written.

​​ 30:6 ​​ So the posts went with the letters from the king and his princes (officers) throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, Ye children of Israel, (re)turn again unto Yahweh God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and He will return to the remnant of you, that are escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria.

Verses 7-9 the letter tells them not to be like their forefathers and like their brethren who were stiffnecked, and to return again unto Yahweh and He would not turn His face from them.

The next few verses tell that Yahweh hearkened to Hezekiah's prayer to heal the people. They kept the Feast of Unleavened bread and were having such a good time and being blessed that they kept another seven days of the Feast with gladness.

​​ 30:25 ​​ And all the congregation (H6971-qahal) of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers (H1616- ger-sojourners) (sojourning kinsmen) that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah, rejoiced.

​​ 30:26 ​​ So there was great joy in Jerusalem: for since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel there was not the like in Jerusalem.

​​ 30:27 ​​ Then the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to His holy dwelling place, even unto heaven (the sky).

We know these are Israelites and Adamic kinsmen because...

Deuteronomy 23:2 ​​ A bastard shall not enter into the congregation (H6971-qahal) of Yahweh; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of Yahweh.

The 'churches' and Gentiles, and the other races do not keep any of the feast days except Passover, and on the wrong day, and for a Jewish Jesus.

Manasseh, king of Judah

2Chronicles 33:1 ​​ Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem:

​​ 33:2 ​​ But did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, like unto the abominations of the heathen (nations), whom Yahweh had cast out before the children of Israel.

Manasseh rebuilt the high places his father Hezekiah had broken down, reared up altars for Baalim, Asherah, and all the host of the sky. He built pagan altars in the Temple and the two courts of the Temple. He passed his children through the Planned Parenthood fires in the valley of the son of Hinnom, he performed all sorts of witchcraft you would see at Disney and in their movies. Manasseh made the people to sin worse than the cursed seed nations Yahweh destroyed before the children of Israel.

Yahweh warned Manasseh and the people but they would not listen, so Yahweh sent sold them into the hands of the king of Assyria which took them to Babylon bound where they were afflicted.

And Manasseh humbled himself greatly.

​​ 33:13 ​​ And prayed unto Him: and He was intreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Yahweh He was God.

​​ 33:14 ​​ Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.

​​ 33:15 ​​ And he took away the strange (H5236- nekar-gods of the foreigner) gods, and the idol out of the house of Yahweh, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of Yahweh, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.

​​ 33:16 ​​ And he repaired the altar of Yahweh, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to serve Yahweh God of Israel.

Strange is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different. Gods of the foreigner.

Read Manasseh's amazing prayer in the Septuagint.

In the books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles we see 4 Hebrew words for stranger.

Ger, a noun, used 5x, and means a sojourner, a temporary inhabitant, a guest.

In these books, ger is used of Israelites and their Adamic kinsmen and of non-kindred peoples such as the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.

Nekar, a noun, used 5x, and means foreign, alien. Different.

Instead of 'strangers' and 'strange gods' it should read 'gods of a foreigner' and 'sons of foreigners'.

Nokriy, an adjective, used 7x, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

Instead of 'strange(r)' it should read 'foreigner'. In these books nokriy can refer to Israelites, Adamic kinsmen of Israel, and the non-kindred peoples of the land such as Solomon's strange wives.

Toshab, a noun, used 2x, and means a sojourner, a guest, a temporary resident. Which reads 'inhabitants' and 'sojourners'.

Zur, a verb, used 2x, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane. Uncustomary.

Instead of 'strange(r)' it should read 'no one else' and 'foreign waters'.

EZRA

Ezra 1:1 ​​ Now in the first year of Cyrus (Koresh) king of Persia (538 BC), that the word of Yahweh by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, Yahweh stirred up the spirit of Cyrus (Koresh) king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,

​​ 1:2 ​​ Thus saith Cyrus (Koresh) king of Persia, Yahweh God of heaven (the sky) hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth (land); and He hath charged me to build Him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah. ​​ (2 Chr 36:22-23; Jer 25:11, 29:10)

Isaiah 44:28 ​​ That saith of Koresh, He is My shepherd, and shall perform all My pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem (the people), Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.

Isaiah 45:1 ​​ Thus saith Yahweh to His anointed, to Koresh, whose right hand I have holden (strengthened), to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;

13 ​​ I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build My city, and he shall let go My captives, not for price nor reward, saith Yahweh of hosts.

The Persians are descendants of Elam, a son of Shem. Israelites are of the line of Shem through Arphaxad.

It is evident that Koresh was an Israelite Persian, hence he was 'anointed'. Koresh was also a Yahweh worshiper.

The only people who are referred to as 'His anointed' in scripture are Israelites.

Koresh probably did not know he was an Israelite, just like most of our people today do not know they are Israelites, which is why they identify as transGentiles.

​​ 1:3 ​​ Who is there among you of all His people? his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of Yahweh God of Israel, (He is the God,) which is in Jerusalem.

The Septuagint ends verse 3 as: “... He is the God that is in Jerusalem.”

Yahweh is in more than a city.

Jerusalem often refers to the people, Israelites. Prophetic Jerusalem is the people, we Israelites. The old Jerusalem is not the New Jerusalem.

Koresh knew that the Israelites were Yahweh's people.

​​ 1:4 ​​ And whosoever remaineth in any place where he sojourneth (H1481- gur-dwells, abides), let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill offering for the house of God that is in Jerusalem.

Koresh told them if they were going to stay in Babylon, and had wealth, to help their brethren that were going back to Jerusalem.

These Israelites were in Babylon, which the Persians had conquered. The Israelites were taken by the Babylonians to Babylon for their punishment because they continued to sin against Yahweh until there was no remedy.

After 70 years of captivity, and when the Persians took over, Koresh allowed the remnant of Judah to return and rebuild Jerusalem.

Some of the people were already spoiling their fresh new start by race-mixing with nokriy non-kindred peoples.

Ezra 10:2 ​​ And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered and said unto Ezra, We have trespassed against our God, and have taken strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign) wives of the people of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.

They were acknowledging their error, confessing, repenting and doing something about it.

Taken strange wives reads in the Hebrew as “given a dwelling to racial alien wives”. Another version reads “and we are locating women foreign ones from peoples of the land”.

Race mixing.

​​ 10:3 ​​ Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my master, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law.

Strange is H5237 nokriy, an adjective, which means strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different):- alien, foreigner, outlandish.

In verse 2 the strange nokriy wives were foreign non-kindred women.

If this were referring to idolatrous women, then we would see efforts to convert them.

Let it be done according to the law - meaning, let a formal "bill of divorcement" be given to each foreign wife, whereby she will be restored to the condition of an unmarried woman, and the Israelite to be free to marry another of their own kindred. (see Deuteronomy 24:1-2).

​​ 10:5 ​​ Then arose Ezra, and made the chief priests, the Levites, and all Israel, to swear that they should do according to this word. And they sware.

​​ 10:6 ​​ Then Ezra rose up from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Johanan the son of Eliashib: and when he came thither, he did eat no bread, nor drink water: for he mourned because of the transgression of them that had been carried away.

The Septuagint ends as: “...for he mourned over the unfaithfulness of them of the captivity.”

​​ 10:7 ​​ And they made proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem unto all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together unto Jerusalem;

​​ 10:8 ​​ And that whosoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes (officers) and the elders, all his substance should be forfeited, and himself separated from the congregation of those that had been carried away (those of the captivity).

​​ 10:9 ​​ Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered themselves together unto Jerusalem within three days. It was the ninth month, on the twentieth day of the month; and all the people sat in the street of the house of God, trembling because of this matter, and for the great rain.

The “great rain”, possibly the inevitable truth?

The Septuagint reads: “...because of their alarm concerning the word, and because of the storm. ”

The “storm”, possibly the wrath?

It was a rainy time, so the symbolism is even greater. Wash yourselves people, wash.

​​ 10:10 ​​ And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign non-kindred) wives, to increase the trespass (guilt) of Israel.

​​ 10:11 ​​ Now therefore make confession unto Yahweh God of your fathers, and do His pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign non-kindred) wives.

Proverbs 28:13 ​​ He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

​​ 10:12 ​​ Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As you hast said, so must we do.

Septuagint: 12 ​​ Then all the congregation answered and said, This your word is powerful upon us to do it.

​​ 10:13 ​​ But the people are many, and it is a time of much rain, and we are not able to stand without (outside), neither is this a work of one day or two: for we are many that have transgressed in this thing.

It's going to take some time to sort this out.

​​ 10:14 ​​ Let now our rulers (officers) of all the congregation stand, and let all them which have taken strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign non-kindred) wives in our cities come at appointed times, and with them the elders of every city, and the judges thereof, until the fierce wrath of our God for this matter be turned from us.

2Chronicles 30:8 ​​ Now be you not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto Yahweh, and enter into His sanctuary (pure, holy place), which He hath sanctified for ever: and serve Yahweh your God, that the fierceness of His wrath (storm) may turn away from you.

​​ 10:15 ​​ Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahaziah (Yachzeyah) the son of Tikvah (Tiqwah) were employed about this matter: and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helped them.

Four man committee. They checked the genealogies and set up appointed times to ship em' out. Deportation.

​​ 10:16 ​​ And the children of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest, with certain chief of the fathers, after the house of their fathers, and all of them by their names, were separated, and sat down in the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.

It took them (4 men) 10 days to put together a documented list.

​​ 10:17 ​​ And they made an end with all the men that had taken strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign non-kindred) wives by the first day of the first month.

The Geneva: 17 ​​ And until the first day of the first month they were finishing the business with all the men that had taken strange wives.

​​ 10:18 ​​ And among the sons of the priests there were found that had taken strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign non-kindred) wives: namely, of the sons of Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren; Maaseiah, and Eliezer, and Jarib, and Gedaliah.

Verses 18-43 list all the priests and people who had sinned by race-mixing.

​​ 10:44 ​​ All these had taken strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign non-kindred) wives: and some of them had wives by whom they had children.

This was probably a hard thing to do, to cast out your nokriy wife and child. But if your wife is not of your own kindred, then you are race mixing.

Ezra teaches one of the main messages of the Bible. That we are a family, a race of holy people, which means set-apart. Yahweh set us apart from all the other peoples of the world.

1Peter 1:16 ​​ Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. ​​ (Lev 11:44, 19;2)

NEHEMIAH

Nehemiah 9:1 ​​ Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackclothes, and earth (soil) upon them.

​​ 9:2 ​​ And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers (H5236- nekar)(and H1121) (sons of the foreigner), and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

Stranger ​​ is H5236 nekar, a noun, and means foreign, alien. Different.

H1121 is bane, and means a son, and in the widest sense (of literal and figurative relationship, including grandson, subject, nation, quality or condition).

The Hebrew reads, 'separating themselves from all of the sons of the foreigners.'

The Septuagint has 'every stranger'. The Geneva has 'all the strangers'.

In the beginning of chapter 13 we see the priests reading the law of Moses in the audience of the people. They found written therein that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God for ever. (Deut 23:2)

We see in verse 3 that the people separated from Israel all the mixed multitude.

Mixed multitude is H6154 ereb ereb (ay'-reb, eh'-reb) and means mingled people, a mixture (of mongrel race). The related word is H6148 arab (aw-rab') which means to braid, that is, intermix.

When Jesus Yahshua Christ was talking to His people, His apostles and disciples, He spoke to them plainly. When He spoke in front of the multitudes, He spoke in parables. Why?

Because the Gospel is not for the mixed multitudes of the other races. They are not part of the covenants and promises made with the anointed peoples of the tribes of Jacob Israel.

Matthew 13:10 ​​ And the disciples came, and said unto Him, Why speakest You unto them in parables?

13:11 ​​ He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

Yes this is speaking about the mixed multitudes, but it is also speaking about the Israelites that will never see or hear or understand, because they have chosen to believe any other belief other than The Belief.

For example: The 'churches'. Most of our people in the 'churches' will never know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, because they would rather believe the false doctrine of the 'churches'. False doctrine of the 'churches'? Yes. The 'churches' don't teach from scripture. They teach from Jewish fables and 33,000 denominations of so-called Christianity.

So in the following verses of chapter 13, we see that the people were returning to their old ways already. They were working on the sabbath, they were buying merchandise from the merchants on the sabbath. They were continuing to race-mix with the non-kindred peoples of the land.

Nehemiah 13:23 ​​ In those days also saw I Judahites that had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab:

Ezra 9:2 ​​ For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the people of those lands: yea, the hand of the princes and rulers hath been chief in this trespass.

The authorities and upper class were more guilty of this.

​​ 13:24 ​​ And their children spake half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Judahites' language, but according to the language of each people.

​​ 13:25 ​​ And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them, and plucked off their hair, and made them swear by God, saying, Ye shall not give your daughters unto their sons, nor take their daughters unto your sons, or for yourselves.

In other words: “DO NOT RACE MIX!!!”

​​ 13:26 ​​ Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet among many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless even him did outlandish (H5237- nokriy-foreign) women cause to sin.

1Kings 11:1 ​​ But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;

2 ​​ Of the nations concerning which Yahweh said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.

​​ 13:27 ​​ Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great evil, to transgress against our God in marrying strange (H5237- nokriy-foreign, outlandish) wives?

​​ 13:28 ​​ And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son in law to Sanballat the Horonite: therefore I chased him from me.

​​ 13:29 ​​ Remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.

​​ 13:30 ​​ Thus cleansed I them from all strangers (H5236- nekar-foreign ones), and appointed the wards of the priests and the Levites, every one in his business;

​​ 13:31 ​​ And for the wood offering, at times appointed, and for the firstfruits. Remember me, O my God, for good.

Septuagint has 'So I purged them from all foreign connection...'.

1Esdras 8:83 ​​ That the land, which ye enter into to possess as an heritage, is a land polluted with the pollutions of the strangers (H5236-nekar-foreign ones) of the land, and they have filled it with their uncleanness. ​​ (Luk 17:18 nekar/allogenes)

​​ 8:84 ​​ Therefore now shall ye not join your daughters unto their sons, neither shall ye take their daughters unto your sons.

​​ 8:85 ​​ Moreover ye shall never seek to have peace with them, that ye may be strong, and eat the good things of the land, and that ye may leave the inheritance of the land unto your children for evermore.

The Maccabees were Israelites of the tribe of Judah in Jerusalem. This was the time when the Greeks were in control and shortly after the Romans took over. The Greeks were a mixed multitude at this time consisting of descendants of Japheth, Noah's son, and many Greeks were Israelites, and there were also Greeks that were mixed with Canaanite blood. Greece was a pagan nation with pagan values and customs and they were forcing their ways upon Jerusalem and the people.

1Maccabees 1:38 ​​ Insomuch that the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled because of them: whereupon the city was made an habitation of strangers ​​ (H5237- nokriy-foreign non-kindred)[allotrios G245] , and became strange to those that were born in her; and her own children left her.

1Maccabees 3:45 ​​ Now Jerusalem lay void as a wilderness, there was none of her children that went in or out: the sanctuary also was trodden down, and aliens (H5236- nekar-foreign ones) [Luk 17:18 allogenes ] kept the strong hold; the heathen had their habitation in that place; and joy was taken from Jacob, and the pipe with the harp ceased.

In chapter 15 Eliphaz talks about the wicked man.

Job 15:16 ​​ How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?

​​ 15:17 ​​ I will shew you, hear me; and that which I have seen I will declare;

​​ 15:18 ​​ Which wise men have told from their fathers, and have not hid it:

​​ 15:19 ​​ Unto whom alone the earth (land) was given, and no stranger (H2114- zur-outsider, alien one) passed among them.

Stranger is H2114, zur, a verb, and means to be strange, become estranged, alienated, another, a foreigner, a harlot, profane.

He refers to the period before they became intermingled with other nations.

Either there was no wicked man among them, a stranger to God and godliness; or an enemy that invaded them, passed through them, or disturbed and dispossessed them of their power and substance; which shows how wise and good men are regarded by Yahweh, and not distressed and afflicted as wicked men be.

Or that no foreigner came to corrupt their sentiments by an admixture of strange doctrines. Eliphaz may be insinuating that Job had been corrupted by the sentiments of the Chaldeans and Sabeans.

The wicked man will have no remnant in his pilgrimage.

These verses are talking about wicked sons of Adam.

Job 19:13 ​​ He (Yahweh) hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged (H2114- zur) from me.
