Welcome back to

Marie Speaks G-d’s Grace Bible Study.

This is Season 7 of Marie Speaks G-d’s Grace.

I hope everyone has been enjoying this seasons BLOGS so far:

 Bereshit/ Genesis ch 1: In the beginning Elohim created the heavens and the earth ,

 Bereshit/ Genesis ch 2: When Adam met Eve ,

Bereshit Genesis ch 3: Lilith  big mad and the Serpent beguiled Chava.

Bereshit Genesis ch 4,5,6 and maybe 7

Bereshit Genesis 8 and 9: Have you ever seen the rain?

Bereshit Genesis ch 10, 11, and 12 Ancestry and Bloodlines, oh my!

Bereshit Genesis ch 13, 14, 18, and 19: A Whole Lot of Shaken going on

We reviewed and discussed Merciful HaShem. The Blessed Holy One sings the world into creation. We explored the formation of Adam – A’dam – the Man and Eve/ Chava – the Woman. Woman gave “in” into the Serpent. The Serpent is cursed. Lilith is oh so very mad. Bereshit Genesis ch. 4, 5, 6, and 7… depict the process of man’s corruption. They describe “Fallen Angels” and the creation of demons and evil spirits. These chapters also cover several of the basic “minor” ways in which sadly many serve or perform idolatry.

In Jewish Legends, the story of creation unfolds. It details the world’s environment and its inhabitants. This narrative proved the flood necessary. These aspects are found in chapters 4, 5, 6, and maybe 7. #sosatisficing. We also review some more misinterpreted Christian texts. These concern the several books of the Torah and Tanakh or other Jewish teaching/thoughts.

In chapters 8 and 9, we discuss the multiple covenants of the Beni Noach. There are also multiple layer covenants. They should not be confused with the Noahides. We also discuss the several and many descendants of the Beni Noach. These descendant of Noach birth several tribe, clans, and nations; that later become corrupted. In their corruption the descendants of Noach become the greatest enemies of the Nation of Israel.We discuss the many great and wonderful ways HaShem dispersed the Beni Noach throughout the entire world.

Chapters Bereshit Genesis: 10, 11, and 12 Ancestry and Bloodlines, oh my! We review where Historians and Scholars believe the descendants of the Beni Noach became nations. We also explore what nations the Beni Noach reside in and the lifestyles or cultures. We also review several history facts and references to support the theory of The Padilla de Dominguez Theory.

Last week we discussed several chapters in with the jumping chapters to connect the story of Lot, Sodom and Gomorrah. We will also continue teaching about the descendants of the Beni Noach through the line of Ham and the Canaanites.

In this week’s lesson, we are focusing on the chapters that reveal the promise of a fulfilled life. These lessons come from the acts of man and wife given by Almighty G-d.

We shall ask and answer some questions:

What is with all the itis?

What is the definition of itis and inflammation?

How does itis and inflammation possible refer to the giants or offspring of the “fallen angels and human woman?

Why did Sarah chose Hagar?

Who was Hagar?

And what is the connection between the Rome 325 and Ishamelites?

I titled this study Bereshit Genesis ch 15, 16, and 17 You’re are having my baby! I love this beautiful song. I like to imagine the joy that Abraham must have felt watching Sarah belly grow. What I blessing for 10 months watching G-d’s promise being for filled so amazing. Below is a song with the same title.

I hope others enjoy.

May The Blessed Holy One, bring about blessings and births or many miracles for us all.

Amen.

What to expect this this Season 7 and Bible Study Lesson:

We will begin to review from the start of the First Book of Moses. It is the Word of the Holy Blessed One, Bereshit/Genesis. Throughout each chapter, we will review, learn, examine, and study. This will lead us to examine this season, unveiling as we investigate cases of Stolen Valor. Along with this great task, we will continue to increase our intro Hebrew vocabulary. We will also include an intro to Hebrew terminology. This will be coupled with a version of The Tanakh (the actual Jewish Bible, that means no “new testament”) introduction. Our studies will always be rooted in Torah Spiritual Teaching.

The books, sources, and resources or references I will do my best to ensure are, hyperlinked for others. This allows them to review and study at their own leisure. It also aids in gaining self-learning or teaching. The books, sources, and resources or references that we share here at mariespeaksgodsgrace.live, are not commonly found or promoted by the internet. Therefore, we do our best to provide Torah-filled information. This helps prevent others from being led towards secular, pagan, or idolatry propaganda lifestyles.

The books I use to aide me in my research this Season 7 / Lesson are from my personal home library:

***I am not paid to endorse nor am affiliated***

The some of the sources we will be using are listed below for others to enjoy on their own time.

My goal is to help and assist others by studying Torah. I research the information and teachings of Torah sages. I apply in life the lessons taught by our sages of Blessed memory and today. I then learn and share or teach what I have learned or experienced. This rounds out my personal experiences in any moment or season of life, thus forming a reality.

This reality is a living, yes living, energy frequency.

Physical And Spiritual

Able to raise higher and higher (G-d willing) and be adjusted as more experiences and new learning take place. These are my attempts at improving myself. I hope to leave the part of the world I have been placed in, in a better state than before. I will do this if needed. I also aim to positively impact the people I encounter, if possible. People and places I am blessed to encounter, G-d willing, will have a positive experience of their own. This experience will be a stronghold or pillar of success for G-d’s Glory. Ultimately, it will lead them to G-d and His Holy Torah.

This Is Not Forced Or Coerced, Nor Manipulated.

I fully accept my own and others’ free will, given to us by the Holy Creator. Therefore, at the end of the day, one’s own education is determined by their efforts. It is also determined by their intentions and perseverance of truth.

Everyone has a responsibility to their own life, experiences, learning, and education. These are just a few examples. Individuals must seek and find truths that form their reality.

TRUTH

All truth comes from G-d. It was given to us in His Holy Torah. It was then lived out in the Tanakh. To be clear, I believe all Truth comes from the G-d of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob. It was given to us through His Prophet Moses, our Blessed Teacher. It is meant to teach the world and all those who love Him. They will know Him and call Him by name. They live by His Torah.

To understand, realize, and learn the truth, we should try our best to learn terminology. Then, share this beauty with others who are open.

So What Is Terminology?

Terminology, as defined by Wikipedia, is:

Terminology is a group of specialized words and respective meanings in a particular field, and also the study of such terms and their use; the latter meaning is also known as terminology science.A term is a word, compound word, or multi-word expressions that in specific contexts is given specific meanings—these may deviate from the meanings the same words have in other contexts and in everyday language.

 Terminology is a discipline that studies, among other things, the development of such terms and their interrelationships within a specialized domain.

Terminology is a discipline that systematically studies the “labelling or designating of concepts” particular to one or more subject fields or domains of human activity. It does this through the research and analysis of terms in context for the purpose of documenting and promoting consistent usage.

Let’s get into…..Today’s Torah verses of study

Blessing of the Torah:
Blessed are You, HaShem our God, King of the Universe, Who sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to be engrossed in the words of Torah.
HaShem our God, please make the words of Your Torah pleasant in our mouths and in the mouths of Your people Israel. And may we and our descendants [and the descendants of our descendants] and the descendants of Your people the House of Israel, all know Your Name and be students of Your Torah for its own sake.
Blessed are You, HaShem Who teaches Torah to His people, Israel.
Blessed are You, HaShem our God, King of the Universe Who chose us from among all the peoples and gave us His Torah. Blessed are You, HaShem, Giver of the Torah!

Bereshit Genesis 15

After these events, the word of Adonoy came to Avram in a vision, saying: Fear not Avram, I am your shield [My Word is your strength], your reward is very great.

Avram said: My Master, God, what will You give me since I continue to be childless, and the manager of my household [this supplier who is in my house] is Eliezer of Damascus.

And Avram said: Behold, You have not given me children, and thus one of my household will be my heir.

Suddenly the word of Adonoy came to him, saying: That one will not be your heir; only he that will come from within your body [a son that you will beget] will be your heir.

He [then] took him outside and said: Look towards the heavens and count the stars if you are able to count them. He then said to him: So [numerous] will your descendants be.

He believed in [the Word of] Adonoy, and this He accounted to him for righteousness.

Romantic Commentary:

I imagine Avram Our Blessed Teacher, was perhaps in meditation or lucid dream sleep, when he had this vision of The Blessed Holy One. The word for vision here is מַחֲזֶה bamachazeh vision (in the ecstatic state). ** highlighted in purple**

אַחַ֣ר ׀ הַדְּבָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֗לֶּה הָיָ֤ה דְבַר־יְהֹוָה֙ אֶל־אַבְרָ֔ם בַּֽמַּחֲזֶ֖ה לֵאמֹ֑ר אַל־תִּירָ֣א אַבְרָ֗ם אָנֹכִי֙ מָגֵ֣ן לָ֔ךְ שְׂכָרְךָ֖ הַרְבֵּ֥ה מְאֹֽד׃

Avram might have been meditating on some of his concerns. He was worried about not having a child to pass all his wealth to, including the knowledge of HaShem. Maybe Avram was worried that all his hard work would fall to waste. He had put in a lot of effort to help free others, including his household, from idolatry. This would make sense. Avram might have accepted that he and his wife Sarah couldn’t have a child. They were quite advanced in age.

“He [then] took him outside and said: Look towards the heavens”

וַיּוֹצֵ֨א אֹת֜וֹ הַח֗וּצָה וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ הַבֶּט־נָ֣א הַשָּׁמַ֗יְמָה

Vayotze oto hachutzah vayomer habet-na hashamaymah

The words highlighted in purple translate to: וַיּוֹצֵ֨א Vayotze to go out, come out, exit, go forth, with, אֹת֜וֹ oto near, together with, הַח֗וּצָה hachutzah outside, outward, street, the outside. I believe Merciful HaShem pulled the Spirit from Abraham. He did this to draw him near so that he might see beyond the earthly brain’s doubtful state and worry. This allowed him to see into the mind’s states that are beyond time. The following word וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אָמַר vayomer means to say, to answer, and to say in one’s heart. It also means to think, to command, to promise, and to intend. Lastly, it means to say, speak, and utter. I believe HaShem The Holy One demonstrates how a person speaks from his spiritual heart. Later, a person acts upon this spiritual speaking. This action leads to the great miracle promises. These divine wills of HaShem are born from the spiritual into the physical.

verse 7: He said to him: I am Adonoy who brought you out of Ur Kasdim, to give to you this land as an inheritance.

Commentary:

What was the land of Ur Kasdim?

UR:

By: Emil G. Hirsch

In Mesopotamian religion, the moon god was known as Sin, Suen, or Nanna: 

• Sin: The name of the moon god in Babylonian culture. Sin was associated with fertility, wisdom, and was the keeper of cattle and dairy. Sin was also thought to be a divine judge in the underworld. 
• Nanna: The name of the moon god in Sumerian culture. Nanna was associated with cattle herds and the prosperity of the lower Euphrates marshes. Nanna controlled the rising of the rivers, which influenced the growth of grass and reeds, providing food for cattle. 
• Suen: Another name for the moon god in Mesopotamian culture. 

The moon was considered important in Mesopotamian culture because its image was larger and brighter than other stars in the night sky. The changing appearance of the moon over the course of a month was associated with the stages of human life, from birth to death. The moon’s appearance was also thought to reflect the phases of pregnancy. 

The Sumerians and Akkadians began using a calendar with months and years around 3000 BCE, indicating that they studied the moon at an early age. The names of the moon god, Nanna/Sin, appear in cuneiform writing from around 2500 BCE.

Sin, in Mesopotamian religion, the god of the moon. Sin was the father of the sun god, Shamash (Sumerian: Utu), and, in some myths, of Ishtar (Sumerian: Inanna), goddess of Venus, and with them formed an astral triad of deities. Sin is considered a member of the special class of Mesopotamian gods called the Anunnaki.

verse: 8 And he said: My Master, God, how will I know that I will inherit it?

He said to him: Bring Me [Sacrifice before Me] three heifers, three goats and three rams, a dove, and a young pigeon.

He brought [sacrificed] all these to [before] Him; he split them in the middle [into two equal parts], and placed each piece opposite the other. The bird, however, he did not split.

Birds of prey [vultures] descended upon the carcasses, but Avram drove them away.

As the sun was setting, a deep sleep fell upon Avram; and behold, a dread of deep darkness fell upon him.

And He [Adonoy] said to Avram: Know for sure that your descendants will be foreigners in a land that is not theirs. They will enslave them and oppress them [for] four hundred years.***hold for verse 2***

But also that nation whom they will serve I will judge; afterwards they will leave with great wealth.

You will join your fathers in peace; you will be buried at a good old age.

The fourth generation will return here, for the sin of the Emorites will not be complete until then [now].

Commentary:

I believe the verse 11 “Birds of prey [vultures] descended upon the carcasses, but Avram drove them away.“, is a prophet verse. Why? Many times, G-d is blessing us. He makes a covenant with us. We might have vultures try to come and attack our blessings. I believe this is further shown when G-d explains to Avram. He describes how positive times and difficult times would occur through the generations. As well, as the Holy One explains to Avram, why the negative and difficult would occur. As we read further we see this played out.

What was the sin of the Emorites or Amorites?

Sin of the Amorites

According to the biblical account and various interpretations, the sin of the Amorites was a gradual and cumulative process of spiritual degeneracy, characterized by:

1. Ritual child sacrifice: The Amorites practiced infant sacrifice, as described in Genesis 19:5 and Jeremiah 7:30-31. This abomination was detestable to God.
2. Idolatry and Satanism: They worshiped the powers of darkness, engaging in forms of idolatry linked to Satanism.
3. Bestiality, incest, and homosexuality: The Amorites were guilty of these detestable practices, as mentioned in some interpretations.
4. Societal sin: Their society’s sin kept growing and getting worse over time, reaching a point where God could no longer tolerate it.

verse 12: The sun set and it became very dark; and behold, a smoking furnace and a flaming torch had passed between these pieces.

On that day Adonoy made a covenant with Avram, saying: To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt as far as the great river, the Euphrates.

[The lands of] the Kenites [Shalmites]**Midianites and Kenites are identical**, Kenizites***The Kenizzites are thought to have been an Edomite tribe descended from Kenaz, the grandson of Esau.***, Kadmonites,

***According to the Jewish Encyclopedia, R. Judah b. Hai identified the Kadmonites with the Nabateans.^[3] Encyclopaedia Judaica writes that opinions diverge as to the identity of the tribes of the Kenites, Kenizzites and Kadmonites: a plausible interpretation laid forward by R. Judah is that they were Arab tribes bordering Canaan; another interpretation by R. Eliezer is that the tribes refer to Asia Minor, Thrace and Carthage.^[4] Jewish tradition regards the term as being identical to Bnei Kedem (“Children of the East”) a designation of the relatives of the Hebrews who lived east of them.***

Explained further below**

The Emorites, Canaanites Girgashites and Yevusites.

Commentary:

What is with all the itis? : a disease characterized by inflammation

What is the correct definition of inflammation?

in·​flam·​ma·​tion ˌin-flə-ˈmā-shən. : a local response to cellular injury that is marked by capillary dilatation, leukocytic infiltration, redness, heat, pain, swelling, and often loss of function and that serves as a mechanism initiating the elimination of noxious agents and of damaged tissue.

Which leads us to the giants or refaim…….

Not a Distinct Race.—Critical View:

The Hebrew term for “giants” is “refa’im,” a grammatical plural. Non-Israelitish clans are designated as “the Gazzite,” “the Ashdodite,” “the Gittite,” “the Hittite,” “the Perizite,” etc. (Josh. xiii. 3; Gen. xv. 20), i.e., by the race-names in the singular with the definite article prefixed, the names “Caphtorim” and “Pelishtim” constituting the exceptions. From this it would appear that “rephaim” and the singular “ha-rafa'” are appellatives (“the giants,” “the giant”), and that in the opinion of the writers the giants did not constitute a distinct, non-Israelitish race or nationality, but were a breed of men of great stature found among various peoples. Thus Og belonged to Bashan (Josh. ii. 10); the Anakim were politically Amorites at the time of the conquest, while they were presumably Hittites under Abraham. David’s giants were Philistines and Gittites. If the Horites were Rephaim, they are the exception, inasmuch as they maintained their identity as a distinct people. This view, however, is not generally accepted.

Connected with the “Shades.”

“Rephaim,” “Emim,” “Zamzummim,” and “Nefilim” are in Hebrew etymologically connected with the various designations for the spirits of the departed, the “shades” (Schwally, “Das Leben nach dem Tode,” p. 64; “Zeitschrift für Alttestamentliche Wissenschaft,” xviii. 127 et seq.). 

I tend to fall to the most maybe spiritual or fantastic view on who these groups of people were. I believe they are the offspring of “fallen angel” or “dark” aka shadow spiritual beings. These could be demons or evil spirits of sorts that inhabit some form of a human shell. Even that of course the human shell invited it’s human body to be taken over or temporarily occupied.

Bereshit Genesis ch 16

Avram’s wife Sarai had not borne him children. She had an Egyptian handmaid whose name was Hagar.

Commentary:

Who was Hagar?

Why would G-d, save someone who’s descendants were destine to cause so much heartache to to the Nation of Israel?

Well, remember the Bloodline? Egyptians, known as Miẓrayim, are descendants of the Ham line of Canaan. They are a clan of the Canaanites who worship many gods, including Baal and Molech. Which Merciful G-d, made a covenant with Noah and all those who came off the ark. The birth of Ishmael and Egypt is part of the prophecy. It is recorded in verses 20 of Bereshit Genesis ch 15: “And He [Adonoy] said to Avram: Know for sure. Your descendants will be foreigners in a land that is not theirs. They will enslave them and oppress them [for] four hundred years. But also that nation whom they will serve I will judge; afterwards they will leave with great wealth. You will join your fathers in peace; you will be buried at a good old age.”

Let’s read what —In Rabbinical Literature tells us about Hagar:

According to the Midrash (Gen. R. xlv.), Hagar was the daughter of Pharaoh, who, seeing what great miracles God had done for Sarah’s sake (Gen. xii. 17), said: “It is better for Hagar to be a slave in Sarah’s house than mistress in her own.” In this sense Hagar’s name is interpreted as “reward” (“Ha-Agar” = “this is reward”). She was at first reluctant when Sarah desired her to marry Abraham, and although Sarah had full authority over her as her handmaid, she persuaded her, saying. “Consider thyself happy to be united with this saint.” Hagar is held up as an example of the high degree of godliness prevalent in Abraham’s time, for while Manoah was afraid that he would die because he had seen an angel of God (Judges xiii. 22), Hagar was not frightened by the sight of the divine messenger (Gen. R. l.c.). Her fidelity is praised, for even after Abraham sent her away she kept her marriage vow, and therefore she was identified with Keturah (Gen. xxv. 1), with allusion to  (Aramaic, “to tie”; Gen. R. lxi.). Another explanation of the same name is “to adorn,” because she was adorned with piety and good deeds (l.c.). It was Isaac who, after the death of Sarah, went to bring back Hagar to the house of his father; the Rabbis infer this from the report that Isaac came from Beer-lahai-roi, the place which Hagar had named (Gen. xvi. 14, xxiv. 62; Gen. R. lx.; see commentaries ad loc.).

Other homilies, however, take an unfavorable view of Hagar’s character. Referring to the report that when she had conceived she began to despise her mistress, the Rabbis say that she gossiped about Sarah, saying: “She is certainly not as godly as she pretends to be, for in all the years of her married life she has had no children, while I conceived at once” (Gen. R. xlv.; Sefer ha-Yashar, Lek Leka). Sarah took revenge (Gen. xvi.) by preventing her intercourse with Abraham, by whipping her with her slipper, and by exacting humiliating services, such as carrying her bathing-materials to the bath (l.c.);she further caused Hagar by an evil eye to miscarry, and Ishmael, therefore, was her second child, as is inferred from the fact that the angel prophesied that she would bear a child (Gen. xvi. 11), while it had been narrated before that she was pregnant (Gen. xvi. 4). It is further inferred, from the words “she went astray” (Gen. xxi. 14, Hebr.), that as soon as she had reached the wilderness she relapsed into idolatry, and that she murmured against God’s providence, saying: “Yesterday thou saidest: ‘I will multiply thy seed exceedingly’ [Gen. xvi. 10]; and now my son is dying of thirst.” The fact that she selected an Egyptian woman as her son’s wife is also counted against her as a proof that her conversion to Judaism was not sincere, for “throw the stick into the air, it will return to its root” (Gen. R. liii., end). This Egyptian wife is explained in the Targum of pseudo-Jonathan to refer to Khadijaand Fatima, the widow and the daughter of Mohammed (see Zunz, “G. V.” 2d ed., p. 288, note a).

Commentary on Commentary:

Now I link below a couple of videos that might be difficult to watch. There is some anti-Semitic views and talks. Even so, these videos are highly informational, especially when examining the troubles of yesterday and today. Please keep in mind the verses reviewed above. These sources that are linked are christianity sources. Of course the creators of the media who follow their god, are going to reference their as their savior. Yes. But, who better to tell someone else about their “family” history than members of the same family. Disclaimer: We here at Marie Speaks G-d’s Grace Bible Study are sharing sources and resources. We condemn all violence and hatred and don’t support any form of idol worship. Last but not least, the final decision on what to conclude is each individual’s own choice. We do ask to please consider, the words of the Blessed One spoke to His Prophet Jonah ch 4 verses 9-11: Then God said to Jonah, “Are you so deeply grieved about the plant?” “Yes,” he replied, “so deeply that I want to die.”

Then GOD said: “You cared about the plant, which you did not work for and which you did not grow, which appeared overnight and perished overnight.

And should not I care about Nineveh, that great city, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons who do not yet know their right hand from their left, and many animals as well!”

I happen to be the “soft side of sears”. I understand many don’t know who or what they are serving or worshiping. The aim here is to teach the Torah. We want to expose idol worship and its system. This is so those who want to be freed from idol worship may have the wisdom to do so.

The end of verse 12 in my opinion is prophetic to who really created the ishmaelite religion. “and in the presence of all his brothers he will dwell.”

Let’s begin…….

How The Catholics Created Islam By Walter Veith ** This in my opinion is the best video lesson. I highly recommend watching.**

Video playlist 1:

How satan used the Catholic Church to create Islam & other Religions – Catholicism

video description: This video was made possible by Chick Track Publications: http://www.chick.com/ The Vatican wanted to create a messiah for the Arabs. Someone they could raise up as a great leader, a man with charisma whom they could train, and eventually unite all the non-Catholic Arabs behind him, creating a mighty army that would ultimately capture Jerusalem for the pope. The astonishing story from an ex-Jesuit priest, Alberto Rivera, which was told to him by Cardinal Bea while he was at the Vatican. When Cardinal Bea shared with Rivera in the Vatican, he said, these writings are guarded because they contain information that links the Vatican to the creation of Islam. Both sides have so much information on each other, that if exposed, it could create such a scandal that it would be a disaster for both religions. “A wealthy Arabian lady who was a faithful follower of the pope played a tremendous part in this drama. She was a widow named Khadijah. She gave her wealth to the church and retired to a convent, but was given an assignment. She was to find a brilliant young man who could be used by the Vatican to create a new religion and become the messiah for the children of Ishmael. Khadijah had a cousin named Waraquah, who was also a very faithful Roman Catholic and the Vatican placed him in a critical role as Muhammad’s adviser. He had tremendous influence on Muhammad. Teachers were sent to young Muhammad and he had intensive training. Muhammad studied the works of St. Augustine which prepared him for his “great calling.” The Vatican had Catholic Arabs across North Africa spread the story of a great one who was about to rise up among the people and be the chosen one of their God. While Muhammad was being prepared, he was told that his enemies were the Jews and that the only true Christians were Roman Catholic. He was taught that others calling themselves Christians were actually wicked impostors and should be destroyed. Muhammad began receiving “divine revelations” and his wife’s Catholic cousin Waraquah helped interpret them. From this came the Qur’an. Muhammad later conquered Mecca and the Kaaba was cleared of idols. History proves that before Islam came into existence, the Sabeans in Arabia worshiped the moon-god who was married to the sun-god. They gave birth to three goddesses who were worshiped throughout the Arab world as “Daughters of Allah.” An idol excavated at Hazor in Palestine in 1950’s shows Allah sitting on a throne with the crescent moon on his chest.” In their “holy book”, the Qur’an, Christ is regarded as only a prophet. If the pope was his representative on earth, then he also must be a prophet of God. This caused the followers of Muhammad to fear and respect the pope as another “holy man”. The pope moved quickly and issued bulls granting the Arab generals permission to invade and conquer the nations of North Africa. The Vatican helped to finance the building of these massive Islamic armies in exchange for three favors: 1. Eliminate the Jews and Christians (true believers which they called infidels). 2. Protect the Augustinian Monks and Roman Catholics. 3. Conquer Jerusalem for “His Holiness” in the Vatican. As time went by, the power of Islam became tremendous — Jews and true Christians were slaughtered, and Jerusalem fell into their hands. Roman Catholics were never attacked, nor were their shrines during this time. But when the pope asked for Jerusalem, he was surprised at their denial! The Arab generals had such military success that they could not be intimidated by the pope. Under Waraquah’s direction, Muhammad wrote that Abraham offered Ishmael as a sacrifice. The Bible says that Isaac was the sacrifice, but Muhammad removed Isaac’s name and inserted Ishmael’s name. As a result of this and Muhammad’s vision, the faithful Muslims built a mosque, the Dome of the Rock, in Ishmael’s honour on the site of the Jewish temple that was destroyed in 70 AD. This made Jerusalem the second most holy place in the Islam faith.” “The pope realized what they had created was out of control when he heard they were calling “His Holiness” an infidel. The Muslim generals were determined to conquer the world for Allah and now they turned towards Europe. The Vatican was outraged, war was inevitable. Temporal power and control of the world was considered the basic right of the pope. He wouldn’t think of sharing it with those whom he considered heathens. The pope raised up his armies and called them Crusades to hold back the children of Ishmael from grabbing Catholic Europe. The Crusades lasted centuries and Jerusalem slipped out of the pope’s hands. The Vatican also engineers a campaign of hatred between the Muslim Arabs and the Jews. Before this, they had co-existed peacefully. Pope Pius XII ordered his Nazi army to crush Russia. After the death of his daughter, Muhammad wrote that she “is the most holy of all women in Paradise, next to Mary.”

Let’s continue with the text.

Bereshit ch 16 verse 2: Sarai said to Avram: See now, Adonoy has restrained me from having children; pray [now], come to my handmaid perhaps I will be built-up through her. Avram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.

Sarai, the wife of Avram took Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, at the end of ten years that Avram had lived in the Land of Canaan and gave her to Avram her husband to be his wife.

He came to Hagar and she conceived. When she realized that she was pregnant, her mistress became slighted in her eyes.

Sarai said to Avram: The insult against me is your fault [I have a judgment against you]. I gave my maid to you and when she saw that she had conceived, I became slighted in her eyes. Let Adonoy judge between me and you.

Avram said to Sarai: [The fate of] your maid is in your hands, do with her as you see fit. Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she [Hagar] ran away from her.

An angel of Adonoy found her by a spring of water in the desert, at the spring on the road to Shur [Chagar].

And he said: Hagar, handmaid of Sarai, from where have you come and where are you going? She said: I am running away from my mistress, Sarai.

The angel of Adonoy said to her: Return to your mistress and submit yourself to her.

The angel of Adonoy said to her: I will greatly multiply your descendants that they can not be counted because of their great number.

The angel of Adonoy said to her: Behold you will conceive, and give birth to a son. You shall name him Yishmael, for Adonoy has heard [accepted] your prayer.

He will be a wild, uncivilized man [rebel against people]. His hand [will be] against everyone [He will need everyone] and everyone’s hand will be against him [and everyone’s hand will need him]; and in the presence of all his brothers he will dwell.

She called [She prayed in] the Name Adonoy Who had spoken to her: [She said] You are Almighty Who sees [everything], for she said: Have I also seen here [a vestige] after my having seen? [Have I also began to see here [a vestige] after it was revealed to me?]

Therefore the well was called: Be’er Lachai Ro’i [the well at which a living angel appeared]; it is between Kadeish [Rekem] and Bared [Chagar].

Hagar bore Avram a son and Avram named his son, that Hagar bore him, Yishmael.

Avram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Yishmael to Avram.

Story Time:Legend of the Jews

ISHMAEL CAST OFF When Isaac grew up, quarrels broke out between him and Ishmael, on account of the rights of the first-born. Ishmael insisted he should receive a double portion of the inheritance after the death of Abraham, and Isaac should receive only one portion. Ishmael, who had been accustomed from his youth to use the bow and arrow, was in the habit of aiming his missiles in the direction of Isaac, saying at the same time that he was but jesting. Sarah, however, insisted that Abraham make over to Isaac all he owned, that no disputes might arise after his death, “for,” she said, “Ishmael is not worthy of being heir with my son, nor with a man like Isaac, and certainly not with my son Isaac.” Furthermore, Sarah insisted that Abraham divorce himself from Hagar, the mother of Ishmael, and send away the woman and her son, so that there be naught in common between them and her own son, either in this world or in the future world.

Of all the trials Abraham had to undergo, none was so hard to bear as this, for it grieved him sorely to separate himself from his son. God appeared to him in the following night, and said to him: “Abraham, knowest thou not that Sarah was appointed to be thy wife from her mother’s womb? She is thy companion and the wife of thy youth, and I named not Hagar as thy wife, nor Sarah as thy bondwoman. What Sarah spoke unto thee was naught but truth, and let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman.” The next morning Abraham rose up early, gave Hagar her bill of divorcement, and sent her away with her son, first binding a rope about her loins that all might see she was a bondwoman.

The evil glance cast upon her stepson by Sarah made him sick and feverish, so that Hagar had to carry him, grown-up as he was. In his fever he drank often of the water in the bottle given her by Abraham as she left his house, and the water was quickly spent. That she might not look upon the death of her child, Hagar cast Ishmael under the willow shrubs growing on the selfsame spot whereon the angels had once spoken with her and made known to her that she would bear a son. In the bitterness of her heart, she spoke to God, and said, “Yesterday Thou didst say to me, I will greatly multiply thy seed, that it shall not be numbered for multitude, and to-day my son dies of thirst.” Ishmael himself cried unto God, and his prayer and the merits of Abraham brought them help in their need, though the angels appeared against Ishmael before God. They said, “Wilt Thou cause a well of water to spring up for him whose descendants will let Thy children of Israel perish with thirst?” But God replied, and said, “What is Ishmael at this moment–righteous or wicked?” and when the angels called him righteous, God continued, “I treat man according to his deserts at each moment.”

At that moment Ishmael was pious indeed, for he was praying to God in the following words: “O Lord of the world! If it be Thy will that I shall perish, then let me die in some other way, not by thirst, for the tortures of thirst are great beyond all others.” Hagar, instead of praying to God, addressed her supplications to the idols of her youth. The prayer of Ishmael was acceptable before God, and He bade Miriam’s well spring up, the well created in the twilight of the sixth day of creation. Even after this miracle Hagar’s faith was no stronger than before. She filled the bottle with water, because she feared it might again be spent, and no other would be nigh.

Thereupon she journeyed to Egypt with her son, for “Throw the stick into the air as thou wilt, it will always land on its point.” Hagar had come from Egypt, and to Egypt she returned, to choose a wife for her son.

Bereshit Genesis ch 17

When Avram was ninety-nine years old, Adonoy appeared [became revealed] to Avram and said to him: I am Almighty Shaddai, walk [worship] before Me and be perfect.

I will give My covenant between Me [My Word] and you, and I will multiply you[r descendants] exceedingly.

Avram fell on his face. Elohim spoke with him, saying:

As for Me, here is My covenant with you; you shall be the father of a multitude of nations.

No longer shall your name be called Avram, but your name shall be Avraham, for the father of a multitude of nations I have appointed you.

I will make you exceedingly fruitful and I will make you into nations [assemblies]; and kings [who rule over nations] will descend from you.

I will sustain My covenant between Me [My Word] and you, and between your descendants after you throughout their generations as an eternal covenant, to be a God to you, and to your descendants after you.

I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land of your temporary residence, all the land of Canaan as an eternal possession, and I will be a God to them.

Elohim said to Avraham: And as for you, you must preserve My covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations.

This is My covenant which you must preserve between Me [My Word] and you, and your descendants after you: every male among you shall be circumcised.

You shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin. This shall be the sign of the covenant between Me [My Word] and you.

At the age of eight days every male among you must be circumcised, throughout your generations; he that is a house-born [slave] or one that was bought with money from any stranger who is not your descendant.

Your house-born slaves must be circumcised, and also those bought with your money. This shall be My covenant in your flesh as an eternal covenant.

An uncircumcised male, who will not circumcise his foreskin, that soul [man] shall be cut off from its people; he has broken [changed] My covenant.

And Elohim said to Avraham [As for] Sarai your wife, do not call her by the name Sarai, for Sarah is her name.

I will bless her, and I will also give you a son through her. I will bless her, and she will be [a mother] of nations [assemblies], kings of peoples [who rule over nations] will descend from her.

Avraham fell on his face and laughed [rejoiced]. He said in his heart: Can a hundred year old man have children? Shall Sarah, who is ninety years old give birth?

And Avraham said to [before] Elohim: May it be granted that Yishmael live before You.

Elohim said: Indeed, your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will name him Yitzchok. I will establish My covenant with him as an eternal covenant to his descendants after him.

And as for Yishmael, I have heard you [I have accepted your prayer]. I have blessed him, and I will make him fruitful, and will increase him exceedingly. He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him into a great nation.

But I will establish My covenant with Yitzchok, who Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.

And when He finished speaking with him, [the Glory of] Elohim ascended from Avraham.

Avraham took his son, Yishmael, and all those that were born in his household, and all that he had bought with his money, every male member of Avraham’s household, and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on that very day as Elohim had said to him.

Avraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

And his son Yishmael was thirteen years old when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.

On that very day Avraham and his son Yishmael were circumcised.

All the men of his household, those born in his household, and bought with money from a stranger, were circumcised with him.

The Priestly Blessing

And  HaShem our G-D spoke to Moses, saying: “Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them:
Yivarechecha Adonai viyishmirecha
Ya’er Adonai panav elecha veechuneka
Yeesa Adonai panav elecha viyasem lecha shalom
“The L-d bless you and keep you;
The L-d make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The L-d lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.” ’
“So they shall put My name on the children of Israel, and I will bless them.”
In HaShem and HaShem’s alone Mighty Glorious Name.
Forever and Ever
O’Amein and O’Amein.
