The word of God never ceases to amaze me. ❤️🙌
Rest in Power, Doc. I'm sure you were greeted by the Father with "well done, good and faithful servant. Enter into your rest."
These words are of the Son of God/the WORD, but anyways.. praise the Triune Lord YESHUA EL SHADDAI.
"Enter into your rest" is in reference to God in Hebrew 3 & 4.
Through my following of the lessons of Rob Skiba and Zen Garcia, the old Aramaic targum had the phrase “Word of the Lord” 270 times in the OT, from Genesis 3 itself, which the KJV most times changed it to just LORD, meaning YHWH. Knowing this helps you appreciate John 1:1 even more. The Person who was doing all these things, was none other than the pre-incarnate Lord Jesus Himself, Yeshua who is also YHWH.
By the Word of The Lord were the heavens made.
Amen my brother. Thank you. That is what I always believed. I never knew it was in the Targum.
YHWH the father is the logos as is his spirit. I john 5:7.
Were the targums exact translations, or were they more interpretive here and there? I don’t know if they’re a reliable basis for the original form of the text
@@RoseSharon7777God Is Triune Jesus is not The Father
Angels can't accept worship, so whomever Joshua bowed down to, was more than an angel.
That also applies to the annunciation of Sampson's birth.
Same with judges 13....accepted and went up within the smoke of an olah/mincha sacrifice
Just because you bowed down doesn't mean you worship as a Deity. Abraham bowed down to the children of heth. You can also do that out of respect for somebody
@@puertoricanprince7690 The text makes it pretty clear that it's worship and not just mere bowing down.
@@affable8696
That same word for worship in that verse is used in Chronicles when Israel worshipped David. They were paying showing respect. Just like joshua was
Dr. Heiser, in my humble opinion you have an unmatched gift for the deciphering of Biblical texts/languages and passing that information on to others. Amazing.
You take the the Bible and make it approachable, applicable and amusing. AAA talent! You are the only Biblical scholar that i have found to date, that I can listen to all day! I suppose even more important is that fact that I actually remember what I hear from your lecture material..Probably because now it finally all makes some SENSE.
You obviously have not heard the best bible teacher there ever was: Dr Chuck Missler.
Its funny, God the Father either speaks for himself, or God uses his Angles to speak
on his behalf or uses his Son to speak on his behalf, its interchangeable.
@@germanslice Are they all him though?
@@andrewpayne4466 The Son is the Advocate to the Father or the Mediator. The Holy Ghost the Third Member Spirit Personage of the Godhead and He is the Testator or the Messenger of the Father and Son. So God can speak also through the Holy Ghost, or through Angles, or through his Son.
No you haven't listened to your only teacher Jesus Christ .
This why Jude 5 is perfectly coherent reading, “...although you once fully knew it, that JESUS, who saved a people out of the land of Egypt..” The oldest manuscripts have JESUS here. Also Isaiah 63:9...”the angel of His presence saved them.” We know who that is.
Jesus is not the angel of the Lord.
@@Rotisiv well the Old Testament teaches a multi-personal God. So if the Old Testament references to YHWH are primarily to the father then the references to the angel of YHWH can be seen as references to Jesus as the Angel of YHWH is YHWH but not the Father.
@@Rotisiv well He is
@@Rotisiv Jesus is not created angel but Angel here means Messenger so This Messenger of Yahweh is fascinating character he is described as Yahweh and also messenger sent by Yahweh so there is clear distinction.
@@Rotisiv yes he is. The angel is not a literal angel but a Messenger of Yahweh. The Word of Yahweh Himself (Yeshua)
Before I understood the technical aspects of the Son, Angel of the Lord etc.. I could tell it was Christ because of His humor.
Excellent observation, God had a sense of humor that really shows when He appears predicts a future impossibility....Sarah laughed lol
There is God the Father and His only begotten Son. Jesus prexisted before He was born in the world. It was the Son of God that is the Angel (messenger) of the Lord, He was the Lord of Hosts, it was the Son of God that walked with Adam in the garden, it was the Son that wrestled with Jacob, it was the Son of God that was the pillar of fire at night and pillar of smoke during the day, it was Jesus that lead Israel out of Egypt.
God bless you all that there is an awakening, God is sealing His children
It may have been but one can not so presume. "Do not go beyond the things written" (In the Bible). LORD of hosts. You forgot to capitalize. It should have been rendered Jehovah or Yahweh of armies to be precise.
Amen Bradley,
@@ralphgoreham3516 There is no presumption here friend, just scriptural evidence....Jesus said (John 8:58 ) "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am."... Scripture says, 1 Corinthians 10:2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 10:3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; 10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ...
No presumption here
@@bradleynewall7541 Hi. Google "Past tense translations of ego eimi" It should have been translated "I was" or "I existed , or I have been". Context was about time, not Identity. KJVs translation of Phil 2:6 is very bad. Consult an interlinear. No idea why you quoted 1 Cor 10:2. Paul meant such pointed forward to the Christ. Moses was the mediator then, Jesus is our mediatorr now.
@@ralphgoreham3516 God spoke to Moses and God made Moses a god to pharaoh, but Moses was not the God of Israel, so he could never be the mediator of Israel, Moses was a messenger for God.. God said that He will send His Angel to speak to Moses, and that Angel (Messenger) of the Lord was His Son. The Son of God has always been the mediator between God and man since the beginning, nothing has ever changed

Thank you for Martin Luther of saxony for burning down and stealing our properties. How we could have survived without christian love for the last 1900 years in unfathomable. Read Isaiah which was not his name at all, chapter 7 verses 1-16. It has nothing to do with a virgin birth., At all.
I love that wonderful passage in Joshua 5. God as man. What a wonderful mystery is our Salvation!
It was 300 years ago that wall Jehio was brought down it. Before Joshua arrive.
We learn from the story of Moses that the true form of God is deadly for humans to look upon. Of course God takes different forms (avatars) to interact with man. Sometimes he sends angels other times he uses his angel or burning bush avatar and goes himself.
I like you use avatar, simply because it resonates with today’s world and may help the younger generation understand the concept of God’s character and divinity.
Thank you, Dr. Heiser, good lesson. Blessings and Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones. Jesus lives and is getting ready to take his children home, Amen.

Let’s PROVE who jesus REALLY is
In Revelation 22:16, in RED LETTERS, a DIRECT QUOTE from jesus HIMSELF:
jesus is the:
1. “offspring of David”, the “Son of Man”
2. “Morning Star”
FIRST:
1. jesus is the “Son of Man”
Here’s the PROBLEM
Numbers 23:19
YaH is NOT a MAN
YaH is NOT the SON of MAN
PROVES this jesus, the “son of MAN” is NOT YaH as YaH is NOT the “son of MAN”
PROVES this jesus, the “son of MAN” is NOT YaH’s “son” as YaH is NOT a MAN
The ONLY “son” YaH EVER CREATED was Adam and that was from the Dust of the Earth
SECOND:
2. jesus is the “MORNING STAR” and the “Morning Star”, the “Son of Dawn”, is LUCIFER (Isaiah 14)
LUCIFER, that’s IS who jesus is
@@Praise___YaH Once again i can prove you are a SATANIC liar and you are of your father, the devil. This is what scripture actually says;
Revelation 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
Jesus is the bright and morning star.
Lucifer is the son of the morning.

First. Love Michael Heisers stuff. I show it to minister to as many Jewish people I can.
@@velkyn1 Not every Christian has the same view of eschatology. I don’t claim to know how the end times will play out. Only God knows. For myself, I want Jewish people to be transformed by the Gospel just the same as I want Hindus to be transformed by the Gospel.

Michael is going to go to Hell. Yes sir he is.
@@ethanhocking8229 Good posture in your response.
I wondered who else had figured out and studied about humanity being ruled by angels deriving their authority from God. This is clear if you read the Bible with any level of attention. It also explains a lot of things about Godly actions.
Sooo cool! I didn't believe in the Trinity but now after having studied the Bible I can see how wrong I was. The problem that I had is that nobody quoted the Bible itself to explain God the Son properly and I was skeptical of how Biblical this teaching was, now is as clear as day God has opened my eyes! 🙌🏾
As a Christian of Jewish origin I say that when my father Avraham saw the Lord God YHWH manifested in the flesh, I mean the episode narrated in Genesis 18, he knew very well that he was before the One True God manifested in the flesh and this also applies to all manifestations of God as מלאך־יהוה or the Angel of YHWH. My fathers, the ancient Israelites knew that the מלאך־יהוה was YHWH himself and did not believe that he was another “person” or another “hypostasis” and one of the many examples of this also emerges from Judges 2:1-3. And verses such as Acts 16:6-7, Romans 8:9 and Galatians 4:6 when compared with verses such as John 14:9, 2Corinthians 5:19 and Colossians 2:9 clearly demonstrate that the Lord Jesus Christ is God the Eternal Father manifested in the flesh and in fact also from the comparison between 1 Timothy 3:16 and 1 Corinthians 8:6 in which we read that the only God is the Father we understand that the Father manifested himself in the flesh and the Bible teaches that he is the Lord Jesus Christ God the Eternal Father manifested in flesh. And that the Lord Jesus Christ is God the Eternal Father manifested in flesh also emerges from the comparison between John 2:19-21 and Galatians 1:1. Do not believe in the false doctrine of the trinity believe in the True and Only Lord Jesus Christ the Eternal Father God of the Bible, God of my fathers the God of Israel.
I'm sure you get this alot... But I'm super into your findings in scripture. God bless you

Grace and peace from the Lord Jesus Christ and from God our Father. My testimony: I believe in Jesus Christ. The reason I believe in Jesus is because I heard God's message about Him, preached from an authorized King James Version (KJV) book of His Word and His words. After hearing the message, I believed it. God has faith His blood is propitiation for my lifetime of sin, and I too believe His shed blood pays for my sins and the sins of the world. After believing, I turned back to God. That's what it means to repent. And after turning back to God, I put my full trust and faith in the shed blood of Jesus and in what He did at the cross. I am fully persuaded, just like Abraham, that God, who cannot lie, will do everything just as He has promised. I declared and do declare His righteousness, and He imputed it on me, a believer in Jesus!
My testimony includes what justifies me to stand before God. It matches Romans 3:24-26.
Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
This is what you need to hear before you can turn back to God:
2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
1 Corinthians 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Colossians 2:12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
1 Corinthians 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
1 Timothy 3: And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Romans 1:18-3:20 classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=rom.+1%3A18-3%3A20&version=KJV
If you have read all of the above, you can now believe and turn back to God, trust Jesus and declare His righteousness. I pray to the one true God that you do.

@@Praise___YaH : I find it rather intriguing that your God can die by being crucified. I always believed that God, being immortal, meant that God simply cannot die. It is also not what the scriptures teach. They do not teach that God became a man and died from being crucified. Rather the scriptures teach that God is an immortal spirit who cannot die. Scriptures teach that the Son came in the flesh, was pierced (crucified), died and was raised from death by God three days later.
If you believe that God and the Son are the same being, you ought to review Revelations 5:5-7 as both God and the Son (Lamb) are both present in the future scene described proving beyond doubt that God and the Son are separate beings.

Judges 13 is another wonderful example of the pre-incarnate Christ, the Angel of the LORD.
@ Rob. you have 2 problems with that statement. (1)There is no scripture that states it is true. (2) If it were true that would agree with JWS that Jesus in heaven is a created angel. I as a JW do say the second is true Dan 12:1, 1 Thess 4:16 Jude 9, Rev 12:7--9, Gal 4:14. Heb 1:5. There is no need to complicate things. Angels appeared to the patriarchs, Moses , Joshua Gideon, Manoah representing Jehovah (or Yahweh) Acts 7:53. End of story.
Ralph Goreham You are mistaken, read Judges 13. THE Angel of the LORD does not mean a created Angel, but rather means the LORD himself, as described in the video. Judges 13 demonstrates that; Manoah and his wife see a Man (the author implies that the Angel of the LORD is the LORD in verse 16), and when He ascends with the burnt sacrifice, they say “We have seen God!” How could they have seen God as a Man, except that the Man, the Angel of the LORD, was the Lord Jesus?
Where do you get that?
Mider999 Judges 13. The Man is the Angel of the LORD and is God. Who else is this but Christ?
@@robsadob1594 The video is wrong. Manoah said that because he realized the angel was REPRESENTING God. The "man" was a MATERIALIZED angel. as was the "man" that Joshua encountered. scroll up to my posts under "The real Killer" for more info. An angel is an angel is an angel. anything else is a twist.
Everything he says seems to be right on the money, if anybody knows what program he’s using there I’d love to have that.

@@DRMSH
Thank you sir.
@@DRMSH one problem though...Numbers 23:19 and Genesis 3:15. Yes their are 2 YHWS but one is a God and one is a man. Unless I'm taking numbers 23 to LITERAL. Otherwise when you rightly divide the word of God you can then understand the Proto Evangelium. The skull of the serpent's seed under the son of the woman's foot.
I left a message at your church. I would like to speak to you again. If you don't mind.
How can I see this whole talk? Does anyone know where this was at?
God ( the Godhead) is three parts, soul, body, spirit.
We each have a soul, body, and spirit.
We are made in God's image.
The Godhead is biblical
Colossians 2:8-9
Honest question; if our word "angel" means "messenger" then are not all these passages simply talking about a messenger, speaking for God, with all of His divine authority, not necessarily about God Himself, personally being present? Otherwise, you do have a contradiction in Scripture where it says, "No man has seen God" yet many have seen and interacted with His "messenger." If the "messenger " is in fact, God, then many have seen God. It really does seem that it is a bit more complicated than conflating the "angel" with the Person of God.
God the Father (soul) God the Son (body) God the Holy Spirit (Spirit)
No man has seen God (the Father)
You can think of it as "no one has seen God AS HE IS, that is, in His FULL GLORY." The "angel of the LORD" and Christ Himself, the former being the pre-incarnate Christ (Son of God, who is God), and the latter being Jesus of Nazereth (Son of God in the flesh, who is God), have, as you say, both been seen, so one would think there is a contradiction. But Scripture also says that ONLY the Son of God has "seen" God, and that He has "revealed" God to us (that is, in the flesh, a way we can understand). Only Jesus has seen God AS HE IS, that is, in His FULL GLORY, because He is the only one who has "come down from heaven." We, too, will see Him as He is in our perfected bodies in heaven, when Jesus presents His bride (us) before Him.
You’re asking the right questions, I like how Justine Martyr puts it in Dialogue with Trypho. “ reverting to the Scriptures, I shall endeavor to persuade you, that he who was said to appeared to Abraham, and to Jacob and to Moses, and who was called god, is distinct from him who created all things. Numerically I mean not distinct in will.”
Great discussion!
Some of my two cents worth: “our word ‘angel’ means”... I think the Hebrew word מלאך means ‘messenger,’ but when the Greeks translated the LXX, they placed many different Hebrew words in the “translation blender” and out came the “Angel smoothie”- kinda like one word fits all- except that it doesn’t. We need to have the Ancient Hebrew in our head AND do a little “de-Greece-ing” in order to grasp the truth in Scripture. It takes a lot of work on the part of every individual seeker.
Fortunately, Mike Heiser has provided incredible insights and tools to help in the process. Everyone taking part in open and honest discussions like this is also helping to sharpen one another. Thank you 🙏
I don't think so, for example in judges 13 they saw the angel of the Lord and they said we've seen God even though the context make it clear for us that he was the angel of the lord
Amen! You can also look at what Samson’s father Manoah said after he saw The Angel Of The Lord that foretold Samson’s birth. He fell face down and said “We shall surely die for we have seen God!” Judges 13:22.
Or when Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by The Angel Of The Lord,the Hebrew text actually says,”Yahweh rained down sulfur and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah FROM Yahweh out of Heaven” Gen 19:24
“He who has seen Me has seen The Father”- Jesus (John 14:9)
Dr Heiser besides being pleasant to listen to has a way of exigeting biblical themes and translating them into a first century Jewish mindset.

I've heard a lot of your work and Tim Mackie (I love The Bible Project) on this OT "shelf-creating" that sets up the category for God's identity taking form in multiple persons simultaneously.
However, one thing I've always had trouble with is understanding why the Angel of the LORD passages count as the Angel being a separate being, but also God?
Why is it not just that the Angel is representing God as a prophet (like how the prophets speak in the first person as God) and, due to proximity and being the chief commander of God's army, he asks Joshua to take his sandals off to show how big of a deal the Angel is? I don't quite understand how the text is suggesting the Angel is actually Yahweh? It seems it can be read as the Angel representing Yahweh just as easily?
HERE is The ORIGINAL Semitic Text, HERE IS THE REAL SAVIOR
YaH The Heavenly FATHER was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
@@Praise___YaH Thanks for the insight into some of the texts, but I already knew the OT claimed Yahweh would be crucified according to Isaiah's servant songs.
To put my question more succinctly: Dr. Heiser talks here as if the passages show the Angel is separate from Yahweh and also is Yahweh. However, when I read those passages, I can also see an alternate interpretation - that the Angel just speaks and acts as a prophet and the commander of Yahweh's army, which gives him ability to speak for Yahweh in the first person and consider the ground around him holy, to mimic the burning bush. Why is Dr. Heiser correct in reading the passage as saying the Angel is actually Yahweh?
@@kalebirey7805
Weh translates “Exists”, “YaHWeh” translates “YaH Exists”
YaH The Heavenly Father was Who they Crucified for our sins, NOT some “son”, NOT this jesus. You know that?
@@Praise___YaH Well, I would disagree. Yahweh was crucified, yes, but the Father was not the One crucified.
Not sure what texts you'd use when studying the crucifixion, but in the Gospels in the Christian New Testament, it's pretty clear that Jesus is not the Father. He prays repeatedly to the Father.
Any time He prays, it would be to the Father, for who else would He pray to? Specifically, though, Matt 26 shows Him praying to the Father before his crucifixion, and Luke 23 shows Jesus praying to the Father as he is being killed.
Conversely, if Jesus was the Father, how/why could He be praying to anyone? That forces us to say there's one greater than Yahweh.
This is just a thought but I’ve also always wondered whether it’s even syntacticly accurate to call someone their own messenger. Who is their own messenger? I don’t say “I’ve sent my messenger to you” but secretly I mean myself. Im no expert in Hebrew but I’d be surprised if that was how you could use the word.
I am puzzled by the appearance of Yahweh to Abraham but for now I lean toward that being a special representing Angel. I think no man has ever truly seen God but Jesus after his resurrection. I need to go back and look, but even Moses may have simply seen the Angel of the Lord, but idk I’m confused and don’t have all the facts.

Take off your sandals/Holy ground...enough said. ✝️🙏❤️😊🙌
Names of God are descriptive terms.
However the angel pronounced the NAME to Moses at Exod 3:15 was to be his PERSONAL name forever. The director for the Jewish institution for the the divine name says it is YEHOWAH. Definitely not Yahweh, it has 3 syllables. But nobody really knows thanks to the wicked Priests and prophets of ancient Israel. Mal 2:1,2, Jer 23:27. The day will come in the "new earth" all will know how to say it. Zech 14:9.

I feel the Lord has asked me to speak on the issue of grounding. This is where people believe that touching the ground with your feet and or body. And by doing this the human has a healthier body and mind. I feel there is true significance on this issue. The two instances in the Bible where God tells the person to take off their sandals. saying" for you are on holy ground'. I feel this is not just an act of respect but also a powerful filling of the body with the holy spirited charge. We have to remember that we are electrically driven beings and so is the earth. So here is a true act of something powerful that you need not understand to reach the benefits of this act. Remember God knows best.

I think a lot of the confusion would be lifted if Translators rendered Malak and Angelos, as Messenger, and not "angel", since "angel" has been ingrained in common folk's minds to refer to winged, heavenly beings that serve God.
And the same thing for satan, if we rendered it as adversary, then you'd actually have to look at the context to see if it is speaking of a adversary in the normal sense, or if it is speaking of _the_ Adversary, the Devil.
Apparently he doesn't allow that the LORD could lead them by using Moses or his angel. What did difference is there between Moses and the angel? Yes both are instrumental while Moses is a dust flesh body man and the angel is a spiritual material man. But they are both used to help, lead a

The Malakha Pnav \ Angel of His Face is the same as the "Angelon Auto \ Angel of Me" of Revelation 22 that tells John "don't do that..." when John attempts to bow to him. This Angelon Auto goes on to say he is the "Alpha and Omega" (has the Name of HaShem in him just as the Angel of Exodus 23) and is "Yeshua the Messiah and the Root and Seed of David." Joshua bowed before \Shtiko Lyphaneka to the Angel of HaShem in his encounter, and this is the same language \ word used for people that Shtiko \ Bowed before David and Saul and the rest of the Kings; this is giving Honor to One in Authority Michael. All sustenance ultimately comes from HaShem, but He can send His provisions in many forms. Yeshua, when challenged on making himself into G-d, corrects his accusers with the alternate usage of Elohim used in Psalms 82:6, that he is a Divine One \ Elohim, as Samuel is also described as an Elohim in 1st Samuel, and is the "Son of G-d"-- he was declaring his Messiahship and that he was One \ Echad \ in Union with the father just as he requests that we all be One \ Echad with the Father G-d in John 17. An understanding of the Original Languages is critical to cut through the doctrinal bias the Scriptures have been interpreted and translated with!
Shalom in Him.
BTW, this is why we need a new "HEAVEN" and new Earth.
ECHAD! Wea all need to be ECHAD.
Why do people always try to fit God into earthly context. God is not bound by physics, math or language. (I AM) says it all.
If all the names of God the same why Elohim in pluriel ?🤔it’s not convincing for me…
I believe that commander of the host is the archangel Michael. Israel was given to Michael to guide and protect. He is their prince and defender. Also if you read revelation it's said it was Michael and his Angels that fought the devil and defeated him. Also Michael will be the one to rise up in the last days to wage war against the devil and his army too. Michael is like the angel commander.
Jesus delivered them.
Angels are not men, they are not corporeal beings. Angels are God's messengers. The word for Angel in Hebrew is ''מַלְאָך'' which means messenger.
Jesus is never mentioned by name even once throughout the Hebrew bible.

Jeremiah 23:27
Baal: H1168 Lord
Show me in the KJV version bible, we're the word Baal was ever translated into the word 'LORD'. Please read the context of Jeremiah 23 and see that the word name is about the character of God, which is the Word of God, and Jesus's name is the Word of God (Rev19). You are not saved by pronouncing the name of God (we don't know how to pronounce God's name) you are saved by the blood of Jesus and receiving His Spirit to reform your character to be more like Him. Jesus said there are two great commandments 'Love the Lord your God' and 'Love thy neighbour'... Not how to pronounce the name of Jesus correctly
@@bradleynewall7541 Fair enough so long as you dont make him Almighty God. 1 John 4:12 "At no time has anyone ever seen God". I do say the KJV is not as accurate as you seem to think. I suggest RSV or NASV. I wont add NWT as you likely will say no. But I can attest it has NO contradictions.
@@ralphgoreham3516 That is why it important to understand that there are two that the the Ancient Hebrews recognized... To understand that there is God the Father and His only Begotten Son, and that they are two separate 'Persons' is important to know, there is a difference between the Father and Son, they are not One being manifested into two or three coeternal beings. Scripture says there is God the Father (who is also the God of Jesus, as Jesus proceeded from His Father John 5:26) and there is the Son of God who came from His Fathers bossom.
However scripture does say...
Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;..
Jesus is a little lesser than His Father yet equal to His Father... As He is the expressed image of His Father and no one else is like the Father but the Son
All of this is so dangerous.

The answer resides in the very name "Israel" itself, as it is a referential name from the "one within god" that sided with them.
Find the root of "Isr" and there you go.
EL is the God of the Israel the suffix of EL is end of Isra EL.

The Unitarians, Christadelphians, Many who belong to religions that are supposed to believe as you but dont. I also see not a few "pastors" either doubt or dont 'on You tube. I will give you 6 verses for you to explain how they say He is God. John 17:3. KJV "This is everlasting life their knowing YOU THE ONLY TRUE GOD and Jesus Christ the one whom you sent". (said in prayer). John 20:17 KJV to Mary: "Touch me not for I am ascending to MY GOD AND YOUR GOD and my Father and your Father". 1 Cor 11:3. Paul: " I want you to know that the head of every man is the Christ, in turn, the head of a woman is the man, i turn the HEAD OF THE CHRIST IS GOD" KJV Rev 3:12, 14 KJV Him that overcometh will I make him a pillar in the temple of MY GOD, ......and the name of MY GOD and the name of the city of MY GOD,.....which cometh down out of heaven from MY GOD..... v14 ......These thimgs saith the Amen, the faithful and true WITNESS , THE BEGINNING OF THE CREATION OF GOD.

@@oftin_wong When growing up, did you have a mother or father who always wanted the best for you? If so, they probably tried their best to provide all the good things in life. Did you still make mistakes and rebel at one point or another? Of course you did. Did those mistakes lead to you not having the best things life has to offer? Even after those mistakes did your mother or father still give you a second chance? A third chance? YHWH is the same. Mercy is part of His character. He gives us the free will to decide. He also allows us to destroy or limit ourselves of the good things this life can offer. Yeshua (Jesus) didn't just come to deliver us from eternal judgement. He also came to allow us to live earthly lives closer to Him. We are the ones who decide if we want to accept those gifts or not.
