Translations Exodus 21 - Hebrew Servants 2 If you buy a Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for six years. But in the seventh year, he shall go free without paying anything. 3 If he arrived alone, he is to leave alone; if he arrived with a wife, she is to leave with him. 4 If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the woman and her children shall belong to her master, and only the man shall go free. 5 But if the servant declares, ‘I love my master and my wife and children; I do not want to go free,’ 6 then his master is to bring him before the judges.a And he shall take him to the door or doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl. Then he shall serve his master for life. 7 And if a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as the menservants do. 8 If she is displeasing in the eyes of her master who had designated her for himself, he must allow her to be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, since he has broken faith with her. 9 And...

Zechariah 9 The Lord is saying he will come down himself! This describes the current situation of that time. Around 538 BC 1 This is the burden of the word of the LORD against the land of Hadrach and Damascus its resting place— for the eyes of men and of all the tribes of Israel are upon the LORD— 2 and also against Hamath, which borders it, as well as Tyre and Sidon, though they are very shrewd. 3 Tyre has built herself a fortress; she has heaped up silver like dust, and gold like the dirt of the streets. 4 Behold, the Lord will impoverish her and cast her wealth into the sea, and she will be consumed by fire. 5 Ashkelon will see and fear; Gaza will writhe in agony, as will Ekron, for her hope will wither. There will cease to be a king in Gaza, and Ashkelon will be uninhabited. 6 A mixed race will occupy Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines. 7 I will remove the blood from their mouths and the abominations from between their teeth. T...

Daniel's 70 Weeks have passed and have been fullfilled! There are two "messiahs" (anointed ones) mentioned in this Daniel 9 The first messiah is Cyrus -- the Babylonian Emperor -- who gave the word to rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple. Ezra: 1:1-2: "And in the first year of Cyrus, the king of Persia, at the completion of the word of the L-rd from the mouth of Jeremiah, the L-rd aroused the Spirit of Cyrus, the king of Persia, and he issued a proclamation throughout his kingdom, and also in writing, saying: "So said Cyrus, the king of Persia, 'All the kingdoms of the earth the L-rd G-d of the heavens delivered to me, and He commanded me to build Him a House in Jerusalem, which is in Judea.." Isaiah 44:28 , God " says of Cyrus, "He is My shepherd, and all My desire he shall fulfill," and to say of Jerusalem, "It shall be built, and the Temple shall be founded." . . . So said the L-rd לִמְשִׁיחוֹ֮ / to His messiah, to Cyrus, wh...

The Essene Gospel of Peace (Diet/Health) FASTING, PRAYER, CLEANSING p14 Satan and his plagues may only be cast out by fasting and by prayer. Go by yourself and fast alone, and show your fasting to no man. (By ‘plagues’, EGOP at least partly means physical illness.) We are not to fast publicly. I know that it can seem to help to fast with others, but there are also disadvantages to telling others we are fasting. It can introduce an element of competition and when we tell others how long we are fasting/have fasted there might be an element of ego gratification creeping in. Some may not be able to resist telling others how difficult it is in an attempt to gain admiration or sympathy, and, in so doing, risk being derailed by this. Also, if we tell others we are fasting, we may be subject to their well-meaning attempts to stop us. Seek the fresh air of the forest and of the fields, and there in the midst of them shall you find the angel of air. Put off your shoes and your clothing and suffe...

Jesus said,   “If ye love me, keep my commandments”   (John 14:15). Keeping the commands of Jesus begins with recognizing what they are: There are many commandments that are plain and simple in the books of moses alone which is the law, then there's the prophets, The New Testiment, The Book Of Mormon, The Doctrine and Covenants, The Pearl of Great Price, All the other scriptures, and all the many things to come forth... Nevertheless Jesus truely said that you can hang ALL of them on the first two! Honestly there really just common sense... laws about being clean, how to judge a situation and etc... Man would not rightly have understood My judgment, unless he had accepted the law, and I had instructed him in understanding. 6 But now, because he transgressed wittingly, yea, just on this ground that he knows (about it), he shall be tormented. 2 Baruch 15:5 This command I am giving you today is not too difficult for you, and it is not beyond your reach - Deuteronomy 30:11 Not...
