Please do NOT visit this site on שַׁבָּת - Shabbat or on the מוֹעֲדִים - Mo’a’dim - Feasts!

Re Tanakh versions:

Throughout this site I may use any of three versions of the Tanakh: 1. “Jewish Publication Society” (JPS-1917), 2. “Mechon-Mamre.org” (MEC), and 3. “Sefaria.org” (SEF), three brilliant versions, However, the JPS-1917 is my preferred version!

Colour coded details of our beloved TaNaKh:

1. Torah = History & Law, 2. Nevi’im = The Prophets. 3. *Ketuvim = all other Writings.

*The Ketuvim - Includes, Poetical books - Psalms, Proverbs, Job, the Megillot, or Scrolls - Song of Solomon, Ruth, Lamentations of Jeremiah, Ecclesiastes, and Esther, prophecy of Daniel, and history of Ezra, Nehemiah, and Chronicles I & II.

Please Note: Some alterations or (additions) have been made relating to ‘Names’ and ‘Attributes’ of אֱלֹהִים - Elohim (God), having been corrected like it once was pre the “Masoretic Text”.

YYYYYYY

Remember the following truth from our beloved Torah!

“Ye shall NOT ADD TO THE WORD which I command you, NEITHER SHALL YE DIMINISH FROM IT, that ye may keep the commandments of אֱלֹהֵיכֶם יְהוָה - the LORD your Eloleichem, which I command you”. Davarim - Deuteronomy 4:2. (JPS-1917).

“The Name of Elohim”

With Rabbi, Dr. Reuven Ben Avraham-Goossens, PhD.

 

Many have asked, “What is the Name that we should love above all others? Our parents name, our children’s name, our own name? No, the Name we should love above all others is the most blessed Name of our heavenly Father. We should also realise that the Name of יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ - the LORD our Eloheinu. The actual blessed Name is pronounced as “YaH’VaH”, blessed Be He!

Let us read Exodus 3:14-15.

“And אֱלֹהִים - Elohim said unto Moses: ‘I AM THAT I AM’; and He said: ‘Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel: I AM hath sent me unto you’. And אֱלֹהִים - Elohim said moreover unto Moses: ‘Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel: יְהוָה - the LORD, the אֱלֹהִים - Elohim of your fathers, the אֱלֹהִים - Elohim of Abraham, the אֱלֹהִים - Elohim of Isaac, and the אֱלֹהִים - Elohim of Jacob, hath sent me unto you; this is My Name forever, and this is My Memorial unto all generations’”.

Let us now read Exodus Chapter 6:7.

“I will take you to Me for a people, and I will be to you a אֱלֹהִים - Elohim; and ye shall know that I am יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם - the LORD your Eloheichem, who brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians”.

The above verses is what our beloved אֱלֹהִים - Elohim so clearly stated, however priests and rabbis decided to do the complete opposite, and rename Him ‘HaShem’ and ‘Adonai’. Just imagine praying, and this is what you will be saying unto the almighty, “I come before you ‘the Name’ and seek your guidance”. If that is not an insult thanks to those priests and rabbis whom יְהוָה - the LORD cursed so badly long ago

 Let us be honest, would you like your friends to say to you; “Hello the Name, how are you today, etc”. I thrust you are getting what I am saying, but those cursed priests and rabbis, were severely punished for what they did, yet rabbis to this day continue to uphold the cursed ones teachings of the past, and they demand that you to use those fake words, rather than use His blessed loving Name! Mind you, the vast majority of rabbis tend to be engrossed in that 2nd century mystical work called the ‘Zohar’, which much later became part of the occult Kabbalah as well as the Talmud. Our beloved Hebrew faith has been destroyed by rabbis these days! For we are not all Judeans, for we are part of ‘Twelve Tribes’, and our true faith should be named, just as it originally was; Hebraic, ‘Hebrews’ or ‘Israelites’. Tragically all rabbis who continue to teach error will all be cursed as well!

YYYYYYY

Thanks to priests and rabbis, who אֱלֹהִים - Elohim cursed severely, and if you do not ask why?, but to this day you are still following the sheer evil of those who were not accepted by אֱלֹהִים יְהוָה - the LORD Elohim! Soon you will know why, when we will read Malachi chapter 2:1-3 & 8:

Before we read Malachi, let us first cover the following:

Throughout the world, most people are content to call our heavenly Father by an assortment of accepted English titles such as ‘the LORD’, or ‘God’. But, we should understand that none of these are Names. Of course it obvious to us all that each of the aforementioned are in fact “attributes” or “titles” and they must be defined, for sadly there are many, many (false) “gods” and (false) “Lord’s” in this evil world!

The faithful in אֱלֹהִים - Elohim are well aware that there is only one true אֱלֹהִים - Elohim, blessed be He! However, other faiths and cults use the same words as those which sound scriptural. Words and with titles like, ‘God’ (which is by it self, believe it or not a pagan name) and ‘Lord’, when they refer to their pagan deities. Therefore it is important that we the Hebrew faithful in אֱלֹהִים יְהוָה - the LORD Elohim define what we mean and it is best we use none of those terms as names, which we have been doing thanks to the priests and rabbis having messed it all up, and thus Elohim cursed them severely!

YYYYYYY

Let us read Malachi chapter 2, verses 1 to 3 and verse 8. First in Hebrew and then English:

(Please Note: I only use the JPS-1917 version of the Tanakh!).

Verses 1 to 3:

וְעַתָּה, אֲלֵיכֶם הַמִּצְוָה הַזֹּאת-הַכֹּהֲנִים

  אִם-לֹא תִשְׁמְעוּ וְאִם-לֹא תָשִׂימוּ עַל-לֵב לָתֵת כָּבוֹד לִשְׁמִי, אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, וְשִׁלַּחְתִּי בָכֶם אֶת-הַמְּאֵרָה, וְאָרוֹתִי אֶת-בִּרְכוֹתֵיכֶם; וְגַם, אָרוֹתִיהָ, כִּי אֵינְכֶם, שָׂמִים עַל-לֵ

הִנְנִי גֹעֵר לָכֶם, אֶת-הַזֶּרַע, וְזֵרִיתִי פֶרֶשׁ עַל-פְּנֵיכֶם, פֶּרֶשׁ חַגֵּיכֶם; וְנָשָׂא אֶתְכֶם, אֵלָי

Verse 8:

וְאַתֶּם סַרְתֶּם מִן-הַדֶּרֶךְ, הִכְשַׁלְתֶּם רַבִּים בַּתּוֹרָה; שִׁחַתֶּם בְּרִית הַלֵּוִי, אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת

 

1. “And now, this commandment is for you, O ye priests.

2. If ye will not hearken, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto My name, saith צְבָאוֹת-יְהוָה - the LORD of Tzva’ot (Hosts), then will I send the curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings; yea, I curse them, because ye do not lay it to heart.

3. Behold, I will rebuke the seed for your hurt, and will spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your sacrifices; and ye shall be taken away unto it”.

8. “But ye are turned aside out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble in the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith צְבָאוֹת-יְהוָה - the LORD of Tzva’ot”.

I have a special study online that has verses in which אֱלֹהִים - Elohim clearly states;

Isaiah 12:4.

“And in that day shall ye say: ‘Give thanks unto יְהוָה - the LORD, proclaim His Name, declare His doings among the people, make mention that His Name is exalted’”.

Joel 3:5. “And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the Name of יְהוָה - the LORD shall be delivered...”

YYYYYYY

Below you will note that there is a comprehensive chart regarding scriptural details of the blessed “The Memorial Name” and I highly recommend that you read and study it! Thus, I pray that we once again use the blessed Name of יְהוָה - the LORD and His blessed Attributes during our prayers as it was done right up to the above mentioned forbidden removal of the blessed, but of course we use it only during our ‘Prayers’, ‘Torah studies’ and ‘blessings’, etc, but never during common speech, and remember it was used by all long before the sacred Name was illegally removed, however using the blessed Name אֱלֹהִים - Elohim will bless you for it!
