Unmistaken Identification

Benaiah

The third captain of the host for the third month was Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, a chief priest: and in his course were twenty and four thousand. This is that Benaiah, who was mighty among the thirty, and above the thirty: and in his course was Ammizabad his son.-1 Chronicles 27:5-6***Several prominent men named Benaiah are mentioned in the divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible. Benaiah from Kabzeel was commander of the military unit during the 3rd month of each year throughout the reign of King David. David was the 2nd king to rule over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land. Kabzeel was in the portion of the Promised Land allotted to the tribe of Judah, David's birth tribe. Benaiah from Kabzeel was in charge of David's team of bodyguards, and was among David's 30 most mighty warriors, and killed 2 enemy Moabite warriors, and a gigantic Egyptian fighter, and a lion. Moreover, Benaiah from Kabzeel remained loyal to David and David's son and successor King Solomon when Adonijah, the son born to David and Haggith, tried to proclaim himself king while David reigned. Over 900 years after Rehoboam, the son born to Solomon and Naamah, became the 4th king to rule over all of the Israelites in the land that there Lord God promised to give to Abraham (Abram the Hebrew), and to Abraham's son Isaac, and to Isaac's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel), and to their descendants, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30,32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 15:1-63, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Ruth, 1 Samuel 1:1-3:21, 8:1-31:13, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-14:31, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles 1:1-12:16, 20:14, 31:13, Ezra 10:25-44, Ezekiel 11:1-25, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

The Lord God Himself

Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish; That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof: That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers: That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.-Isaiah 44:24-28***Joseph was the 1st son born to Jacob (Israel) and his 2nd wife Rachel. In Egypt, Manasseh and Ephraim were born to Joseph and his wife Asenath. When Jacob was blessing Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, and proclaiming Manasseh and Ephraim to be his own sons, Jacob proclaimed the Lord God to be the God of Isaac and Abraham (Abram the Hebrew), and Jacob told Joseph that the Lord God had been his Shepherd and the Angel who redeemed him, delivered him, from evil on every side. Jacob and his older fraternal twin brother Esau (Edom) were the only children born to Isaac and his wife Rebekah. Isaac was the only child born to Abraham and his wife Sarah (Sarai). Job was a wealthy man from Uz and only worshiped the Lord God. When Job was speaking among his 3 friends while suffering through calamities that the Lord God allowed to occur, Job stated that he was shaped by the hands of the Lord God and molded by the Lord God. Job spoke about the Lord God making him in the womb by a process of pouring, curdling, clothing, and knitting. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that the Lord God gave several of his prophets, including Isaiah, details about the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the Lord God gave his prophets accounts of how and why the Lord God brought forth life. Over 650 years after Isaiah proclaimed the words of the Lord God to the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Jacob's 4th born son Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, Job, Psalms, Isaiah, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Romans 15:1-4, 2 Timothy 3:12-17, Hebrews 1:1-14, 2 Peter 1:1-21

Every Single Solitary Bit

And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written. And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables. And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp. And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear. And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount. And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.-Exodus 32:15-20***In the desert wilderness of Sinai, the Israelites saw Moses go upon Mount Sinai to be with the Lord God at least twice before Moses was upon Mount Sinai 40 days and nights. After the 2 earlier visits, Moses told the Israelites everything that the Lord God commanded him to say, and Moses consecrated his fellow Israelites, and the Israelites washed their clothes. Shortly thereafter, the Lord God descended upon Mount Sinai in fire, and the Israelites heard the voice of the Lord God proclaim the Ten Commandments to them. When Moses was upon Mount Sinai 40 days and nights with the Lord God, the Israelites thought they were abandoned and told Moses' older brother Aaron to create gods for them. The calf that Aaron created with the gold earrings the Israelites gave him was destroyed by Moses after Moses came down from Mount Sinai, threw the golden calf into the fire, ground it up, and scattered its particles onto the nearby stream. During the 40th year after Moses and Aaron led the Israelites away from Egyptian slavery, across the divinely parted Red Sea, into the desert wilderness of Shur, and the desert wilderness of Sin, and the desert wilderness of Sinai, 123-year-old Aaron the high priest died and was buried upon Mount Hor, and Moses went upon Mount Nebo. The Lord God showed Moses the Promised Land, and 120-year-old Moses the prophet died and was divinely buried. Joshua, Moses' aide and  successor from the tribe of Ephraim, led the Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the land that the Lord God promised to give to Abraham (Abram the Hebrew), and to Abraham's son Isaac, and to Isaac's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel) and to their descendants. Over 1,300 years after 110-year-old Joshua died and was buried in his tribe's portion of the Promised Land, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Jacob's 4th born son Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 4:1-5:33, 9:1-29, 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, 7:20-29, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Onward Always

From a letter written by the apostle Paul

to Timothy

I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.-2 Timothy 4:1-5***Paul (Saul) was an Israelite from the tribe of Benjamin, descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob (Israel) and his 2nd wife Rachel, and Jacob and Rachel's 2nd and last son Benjamin. Timothy's mother Eunice was an Israelite. Timothy's father was a Gentile, a person not born into the Israelite tribes. Years before Paul met Timothy, Paul did not believe Jesus, who had been crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, and returned to heaven, to be the Christ, the Son of God. Throughout Jerusalem, Paul persecuted and imprisoned Israelites who believed Jesus to be the Christ of God. When Paul was journeying to the synagogues in Damascus, Syria, to find, bind and and take to Jerusalem any Israelite believers he found, Paul and those with him saw a light from heaven flash around them. Paul heard the voice of Jesus speaking to him, and Paul spoke to Jesus and obeyed Jesus. In Damascus, Paul was baptized. From thenceforward, Paul the apostle journeyed and wrote divinely inspired letters, teaching Israelites and Gentiles the good news of Jesus the Christ and everlasting life. After Paul met Timothy, Paul circumcised Timothy, and took Timothy on journeys, and sent Timothy on missions, and thought of Timothy as a son.-Genesis 11:26-35:29, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 8:1-40, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, 6:1-8:4, 9:1-28:31, Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1 Thessalonians, 2 Thessalonians, 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews 13:1-25

More Plus More Because of the Lord

And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither. And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand. And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand. And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.-Genesis 39:1-5***Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, and daughter Dinah were born to Jacob (Israel) and his 1st wife Leah. Dan and Naphtali were born to Jacob and maidservant Bilhah.  Gad and Asher were born to Jacob and maidservant Zilpah. Joseph and Benjamin were born to Jacob and his 2nd wife Rachel. Joseph's brothers hated him, and his dreams, and his status as their father's favorite. When Joseph arrived in Dothan to check on his brothers, Joseph's brothers threw him into a waterless pit, and sold him to merchants traveling to Egypt, and led Jacob to believe that Joseph was killed by a wild animal. The merchants sold Joseph to Potiphar, an Egyptian official. After Potiphar's wife made a false accusation, Potiphar put Joseph in prison. The Lord God continued to be with Joseph, and the warden saw Joseph favourably and placed Joseph over everything related to the prisoners. At least 2 years after Joseph explained the meaning of a dream to the imprisoned cupbearer who served Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and explained the meaning of a dream to Pharaoh's imprisoned baker, Pharaoh explained the meaning of a dream to Pharaoh, and Pharaoh proclaimed Joseph second-in-command. During a famine, Jacob sent his sons from Canaan to Egypt to buy grain (corn). After the 2nd time that Joseph's brothers were in Egypt, Joseph revealed his identity to his brothers and told them to move with their families, including Jacob, to Egypt. Moreover, Pharaoh expressed his hospitality and generosity. During the journey to Egypt, the Lord God spoke to 130-year-old Jacob. In Egypt, Jacob proclaimed Manasseh and Ephraim, the sons born to Joseph and his wife Asenath, to be his own sons. Sometime after 147-year-old Jacob died in Egypt, and Jacob's family buried his body in Canaan, and 110-year-old Joseph and his siblings were dead, their descendants the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt. Miriam and her younger brothers Aaron and Moses were born into the tribe of Levi. When Moses was 80 years old and Aaron was 83, they led the Israelites away from Egypt, across the divinely parted Red Sea, and into the desert wilderness of Shur, according to the commands of the Lord God. During the 40-year journey to Canaan, the Promised Land, Miriam the prophetess died and was buried in Kadesh, in the desert wilderness of Zin. Upon Mount Hor, Aaron the high priest died. When Moses went upon Mount Nebo, the Lord God showed Moses the Promised Land, and 120-year-old Moses the prophet died and was divinely buried. Joshua, Moses' aide and successor from the tribe of Ephraim, led the Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the land that the Lord God promised to give to Jacob, and to Jacob's father Isaac, and to Isaac's father Abraham (Abram the Hebrew), and to their descendants. Over 1,300 years after 110-year-old Joshua died and was buried in his tribe's portion of the Promised Land, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Sometime after Jesus was born, Joseph, Mary and Jesus stayed in Egypt for awhile, according to the words spoken to Joseph by an angel of the Lord.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 23:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, Psalm 105, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Keep in Mind This Last Line of Mine

Jehoiada the priest, his son Zechariah,

and King Joash

Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them. And they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and served groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass. Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again unto the LORD; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear. And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, which stood above the people, and said unto them, Thus saith God, Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the LORD, he hath also forsaken you. And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD. Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The LORD look upon it, and require it.-2 Chronicles 24:17-22***Joash (Jehoash) was born to King Ahaziah and Zibiah. Ahaziah was born to King Joram (Jehoram) and Athaliah. Joram was the 5th king to rule Judah, the southern nation in the Promised Land, and Ahaziah was the 6th king to rule Judah. When Athaliah learned that Ahaziah was dead, she began putting her royal descendants to death and became ruler of the kingdom. Jehosheba (Jehoshabeath) was Ahaziah's sister and the wife of Jehoiada the priest. Jehosheba hid Ahaziah's 1-year-old son Joash (Jehoash) and Joash's nurse, and Joash remained hidden 6 years in a bedchamber in the temple of the Lord, with Jehoiada's knowledge. When Joash was 7 years old, Jehoiada and his sons presented Joash to their fellow Israelites as the rightful ruler of Judah. Jehoiada and his sons anointed Joash, and Joash became the 7th king to rule Judah. Jehoiada mentored Joash and taught Joash to obey the commandments, judgments, statutes, and laws that the Lord God gave for the Israelites. Joash commanded that the temple of the Lord be repaired and Joash enacted a collection system whereby funds were received and distributed to pay for materials and workmen. After 130-year-old Jehoiada died, Joash joined the actions of his idol worshiping peers. Joash disregarded the temple of the Lord, and Joash and many of the Israelites worshiped idols. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that Athaliah and Joram were idol worshipers, and when they reigned many Israelites worshiped idols. Joram's great-grandfather King Abijam (Abijah) was an idol worshiper, and the 2nd king to rule Judah. During Abijam's 3-year reign, many Israelites worshiped idols. Abijam's father King Rehoboam was an idol worshiper and the 1st king to rule Judah. Many Israelites worshiped idols during Rehoboam's 17-year reign. The Lord God sent prophets to speak to the idol worshiping Israelites. However, the Israelites refused to believe or listen to the prophets. Joash's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandson Jehoiakim (Eliakim) was the 17th king to rule Judah. During Jehoiakim's 11-year reign, the Babylonians (Chaldeans) invaded Judah and Jerusalem, the royal city, and King Nebuchadnezzar, ruler of Babylon, began looting the temple of the Lord. Jehoiachin (Jeconiah/Coniah), the son born to Jehoiakim and Neshustha, was the 18th king to rule Judah. During Jehoiachin's 3-month reign, the Babylonians took more prominent Israelites, including Jehoiachin, his wives and mother, to Babylon. During the 11th year of the reign of Jehoiakim's brother King Zedekiah (Mattaniah), the 19th king to rule Judah, the Babylonians conquered Jerusalem, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that over 125 years before Jerusalem was conquered, the Assyrians invaded the northern nation of Israel in the Promised Land and conquered the royal city, Samaria, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites. Over 500 years after Israelites began returning to Judah and Jerusalem, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah, the tribe of Judah's kings, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Some Explaining

The Words of 

Jesus the Christ,

the Son of God:

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.-John 15:1-8***When Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was in Jerusalem with 11 of his 12 disciples and apostles, he taught the 11 Israelite men some of the last lessons before he was arrested, crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, seen by over 500 people, and returned to heaven. Jesus identified himself as the vine, the true vine. Less than 34 years earlier, Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. On the 8th day after Jesus was born, Jesus was circumcised, according to the covenant of circumcision that the Lord God gave Joseph and Mary's ancestor Abraham (Abram the Hebrew). During the 12th year after Jesus was born, Joseph and Mary found Jesus in Jerusalem, in the temple of the Lord, listening, asking, understanding, and understanding. Approximately 30 years after Jesus was born, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by Mary's relative John the Baptist, from the tribe of Levi. Jesus having prayed, the heavens tearing open, the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus. The Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. Jesus fasted 40 days and nights and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus to be the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world, and testified that Jesus is the Son of God. In Galilee, Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God. Jesus identified himself as the Son of God, the way the truth and the life, the resurrection and the life, the bread of life, the living bread, the door, the door of the sheep, the good shepherd, the light of the world while he was in the world, the Son of man, and Jesus revealed the Son of man to be Lord of the sabbath.-Genesis 11:26-35:29, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Know What

King Saul and David

And David abode in the wilderness in strong holds, and remained in a mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God delivered him not into his hand. And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life: And David was in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood. And Jonathan Saul's son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God. And he said unto him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel, and I shall be next unto thee; and that also Saul my father knoweth. And they two made a covenant before the LORD: and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house. Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of Jeshimon? Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and our part shall be to deliver him into the king's hand.-1 Samuel 23:14-20***When Samuel the priest, prophet and judge from the tribe of Levi was elderly, and his sons Joel (Vashni) and Abiah (Abijah) were not obeying the commands of the Lord God, and King Nahash and his Ammonite were preparing to attack, the Israelite elders demanded that Samuel appoint a king to lead them. Samuel prayed to the Lord God, and proclaimed the words of the Lord God to the Israelites, and anointed Saul, from the tribe of Benjamin, to reign as king over the Israelites in the Promised Land, according to the commands of the Lord God. At least twice, Saul did not obey the commands of the Lord God. While Saul reigned, the Lord God sent Samuel to anoint David, from the tribe of Judah, to reign as king. David continued working as a shepherd for his elderly father Jesse and soon began working as a musician and an armor-bearer for Saul. After David killed and beheaded Goliath the gigantic Philistine, David stayed in Saul's service full-time. David and Jonathan, Saul's son, made a covenant. The Israelite women sang of David higher than they sang of Saul, and Saul was angry. Saul wanted to kill David, and became afraid of David, and sent David on missions to get killed, and commanded others, including Jonathan, to kill David. Saul's daughter Michal was married to David and helped David escape from their home. David stayed in deserts, caves and wooded areas when he was on the run from Saul. Doeg the Edomite was a top worker during Saul's reign and was distantly related to Saul, David and their fellow Israelites. The Israelites descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, and Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel). Doeg was descended from Isaac and Rebekah's oldest fraternal twin son Esau (Edom). Doeg previously told Saul about seeing David in the city Nob, a city inhabited by Israelite priests. When David and his men were staying in Ziph, in the portion of the Promised Land allotted to the tribe of Judah, Jonathan visited David. Meanwhile, some Ziphites told Saul that David was in their land.-Genesis 11:27-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 23:7-8, 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 15:1-63, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-2:12, 1 Chronicles 1:1-2:17, 3:1-4:43, 8:1-40, 9:35-29:30, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

                   
******************************************************

And the Ziphites came unto Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself in the hill of Hachilah, which is before Jeshimon? Then Saul arose, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.-1 Samuel 26:1-2***Many of the Israelites living in Ziph were from the tribe of Judah, the birth tribe of David.  However, the allegiance of the Ziphites was to King Saul, from the tribe of Benjamin. After the Philistines killed Jonathan and his brothers Malchishua and Abinadab (Ishui?), and Saul's self-inflicted death on the same battlefield, men from the tribe of Judah anointed 30-year-old David, and David began to reign only over the tribe of Judah. Saul's son Ishbosheth (Eshbaal) ruled over the other Israelite tribes. Sometime after Ishbosheth was murdered, the Israelite elders went to David and David made a covenant with them. The elders anointed 37-year-old David, and David became the 2nd king to rule over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land. Over 900 years after Solomon, the 2nd child born to David and Bathsheba, became the 3rd king to rule over all of the Israelites, and 70-year-old David died, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 15:1-63, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-11:43, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-55, 3:1-4:43, 8:1-40, 9:35-29:30, 2 Chronicles 1:1-9:31, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Can't Resist When We Insist

King Saul

Then Saul fell straightway all along on the earth, and was sore afraid, because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night. And the woman came unto Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said unto him, Behold, thine handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened unto thy words which thou spakest unto me. Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also unto the voice of thine handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength, when thou goest on thy way. But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, compelled him; and he hearkened unto their voice. So he arose from the earth, and sat upon the bed. And the woman had a fat calf in the house; and she hasted, and killed it, and took flour, and kneaded it, and did bake unleavened bread thereof: And she brought it before Saul, and before his servants; and they did eat. Then they rose up, and went away that night.-1 Samuel 28:20-25***When Saul was searching for his father's lost donkeys, he went with his servant to seek advice from Samuel, the elderly priest, prophet and judge from the tribe of Levi. Samuel told Saul the whereabouts of the donkeys, and gave Saul a divine message, and anointed Saul to reign as king over the Israelites in the Promised Land, according to the command of the Lord God. Meanwhile, Samuel's sons Joel (Vashni) and Abiah (Abijah) were not obeying the commands of the Lord God, and King Nahash and his Ammonite army were preparing to attack, and the Israelite elders wanted a king to lead them. At least twice while reigning, Saul did not obey the commands of the Lord God. The Lord God rejected Saul from being king and sent Samuel to anoint David, from the tribe of Judah, to reign as king. Sometime thereafter, David began working as a musician and an armor-bearer for Saul, and David killed and beheaded Goliath the gigantic Philistine. David and Jonathan, Saul's son, made a covenant. The Israelite women sang of David higher than they sang of Saul, and Saul was angry. Saul wanted to kill David, and became afraid of David, and sent David on missions to get killed, and commanded others, including Jonathan, to kill David. Saul's daughter Michal  was married to David and helped David escape from their home. After Samuel died, and the Philistines were preparing another attack, Saul disguised himself and went with 2 of his servants to see a woman reported to have specific abilities that would enable him to contact Samuel. Over 1,000 years after the Philistines killed Jonathan and his brothers Malchishua and Abinadab (Ishui?), and Saul's self-inflicted death on the same battlefield, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy  31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-2;12, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, 8:1-40, 9:35-29:30, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

From This to That

FROM THIS:

Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah. And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did. He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him.-2 Kings 18:1-5***King Ahaz was the 11th king to rule Judah, the southern nation in the Promised Land. Ahaz was an idol worshiper, and during his 16-year reign he closed the temple of the Lord. Hezekiah, the son born to Ahaz and Abi (Abijah), was the 12th king to rule Judah. Hezekiah only worshiped the Lord God. During the 1st year of Hezekiah's 29-year reign, Hezekiah reopened the temple and rid Judah and the temple of items associated with idolatry. Hezekiah led the Israelites to worship the Lord God and ordered the priests and Levites to return to their sacred work. Hezekiah contributed a personal offering and ordered proper offerings to be given by the Israelites throughout

Jerusalem, allowing the priests and Levites to continue their work without worry. When King Sennacherib, ruler of Assyria, came to conquer Jerusalem, Hezekiah told his fellow Israelites not to fear and said that the Lord God would fight for them. Sometime thereafter, Hezekiah invited everyone throughout Judah and the northern nation of Israel in the Promised Land to commemorate the Passover. Before some of the celebrants returned home, they destroyed the remaining images of idolatry in Judah. After 54-year-old Hezekiah died, his body was buried in the tombs of the kings. Ahaz was not similarly honored.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 3:1-51, 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings 1:1-20:21, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles 1:1-32:33, Isaiah 36:1-39:8, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Reference Scriptures:
And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live. And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.-Numbers 21:8-9  
       
                 

TO THAT:

Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hephzi-bah. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, after the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel. For he built up again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made a grove, as did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them. And he built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD said, In Jerusalem will I put my name. And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD. And he made his son pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and dealt with familiar spirits and wizards: he wrought much wickedness in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.-2 Kings 21:1-6***Manasseh was born to King Hezekiah and Hephzibah. Hezekiah was the 12th king to rule Judah, the southern nation in the Promised Land, and Manasseh was the 13th king to reign. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that among Judah's kings, Hezekiah had unparalleled trust in the Lord God. Manasseh was an idolater and followed the actions and behavior of his grandfather King Ahaz, the 11th king to rule Judah. Ahaz was an idol worshiper and burned at least 1 of his sons in a sacrificial fire. Manasseh burned at least 1 of his sons in a sacrificial fire, and worshiped stars and other lights in the sky, practiced wizardry, sought advice from mediums, and disobeyed the commandments, judgments, statutes, and laws that the Lord God gave for the Israelites, his treasured and chosen people. Moreover, Manasseh caused the deaths of many innocent people. The Lord God sent prophets to the Israelites, and the prophets proclaimed the words of the Lord God to the Israelites, including warnings about the disasters to occur because of the unprecedented evil committed. However, Manasseh and most of his fellow Israelites did not listen to the prophets. The Lord God allowed the king of Assyria to capture Manasseh and take Manasseh prisoner, using a hook and shackles. Manasseh cried, repented and prayed to the Lord God, and the Lord God brought Manasseh back to Jerusalem, the royal city. Manasseh threw away the idolatrous images and told the Israelites to worship the Lord God. Yet, as a result of Manasseh's sins that the Lord God was not willing to forgive, punishment awaited Judah. After Manasseh died, his body was buried on the palace grounds instead of in the tombs of the kings. Manasseh's great-grandson Jehoiakim (Eliakim) was the 17th king to rule Judah. During Jehoiakim's 11-year reign, the Babylonians

(Chaldeans) invaded Judah and Jerusalem and 

King Nebuchadnezzar, ruler of Babylon, began looting the temple of the Lord. Jehoiachin (Jeconiah/Coniah), the son born to Jehoiakim and Nehushta, was the 18th king to rule Judah. During Jehoiachin's 3-month reign, the Babylonians took more prominent Israelites, including Jehoiachin, his wives and mother, to Babylon. During the 11th year of the reign of Jehoiakim's brother King Zedekiah (Mattaniah), the 19th king to rule Judah, the Babylonians conquered Jerusalem, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that over 125 years earlier, the Assyrians invaded the northern nation of Israel and conquered the royal city, Samaria, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites. Over 500 years after Israelites began returning to Judah and Jerusalem, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah, the tribe of Judah's kings, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Leviticus 18:1-20:27, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 17:1-18:22, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-28,34, 2:1-16, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Jeremiah 15:1-4, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
