Do you see yourself as a Peculiar Treasure?

“He has chosen you as his family, to make you high above all nations.” How do we know this?

“I will bless you and I will make your name great, and you shall be blessed in the earth, and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed…”

“For Yah has chosen “Jacob” | Ya'aqov unto himself, and Ya’ohsharal | Israel | Yashar'el for his peculiar treasure.” Tehilliym (Psalms) 135:4.

Listen to this description given by our Heavenly Father to the prophet Mashah | Moses:

“And Mashah | Moses | Mosheh went up unto ALA’AYM | Elohiym, and YA’OH | Yahuah called unto him out of the mountain, saying: Thus shall you say to the house of “Jacob “ | Ya'aqov, and tell the children of Ya’ohsharal | Israel | Yashar'el; Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians | Mitsriym, and how I bore you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself. Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and guard my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which you shall speak unto the children of Ya’ohsharal | Israel | Yashar'el.” Shemoth | (the book of Names) (Exodus) 19:3-6.

What could possibly make us peculiar? 

What is it that makes us different from all others; that actually makes us special?

The definition of Peculiar is:

Merriam-Webster

https://www.merriam-webster.com :

“1. characteristic of only one person, group, or thing : distinctive…”

A Synonym for Peculiar is:

“PECULIAR applies to qualities possessed only by a particular individual or class or kind and stresses rarity or uniqueness.”

“What is the biblical meaning of peculiar?”

According to this Artificial Intelligence definition:

“AI Overview

“”In the Bible, particularly in the King James Version, "peculiar" (related to the Greek word peripoiesis) primarily means "belonging to God as a special possession" or "chosen and treasured by God". It signifies that Christians are uniquely His, purchased by the sacrifice of Ya’ohshai | Jesus, and set apart for His purposes. It doesn't mean strange or weird in the modern sense, although Christians may be seen as different or counter-cultural by the world. 

Here's a more detailed breakdown: 

• Old Testament:

  
  

  The Hebrew word ceghullah, translated as "peculiar" in the Old Testament, refers to something that is owned or possessed, emphasizing the idea of God's special ownership of His people. 

  
  

• New Testament:

  
  

  In 1 Peter 2:9, the Greek word peripoiesis is translated as "peculiar." It signifies God's acquisition, preservation, or possession of His people. 

  
  

• Not Strange, but Special:

  
  

  While "peculiar" can mean odd or strange in modern English, in the biblical context, it highlights the unique and treasured relationship between God and His followers. Christians are "peculiar" in the sense that they belong to God, are loved by Him, and have a special purpose in the world. 

  
  

• Examples:

  
  

  Passages like Exodus 19:5 ("a peculiar treasure") and 1 Peter 2:9 ("a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession") illustrate this meaning.””

The children of ABBA YAH have been given instructions on how to live their lives:

“Ye are the children of YA’OH your ALA’AYM | Yahuah Elohaykem: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead. For you are a holy people unto YA’OH your ALA’AYM | Yahuah Elohayka, and YA’OH | YHWH | Yahuah has chosen you to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.” Dabaraym | Devariym (Deuteronomy) 14:1-2.

“And to make you high above all nations which he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that you may be a holy people unto YA’OH your ALA’AYM | Yahuah Elohayka, as he has spoken.” Dabaraym | Devariym (Deuteronomy) 26:19.

ABBA YAH placed signs upon his people, signs that uniquely identify them as belonging to him. Of all the people on Earth, only one group of people were given a particular sign to live by and also to appear before their Creator, just like the “Angels in The Heavens”: (Later we will discuss how vast this family has become).

“And he gave us a great sign, the Shabbath, that we should work six days, but guard the Shabbath on the seventh day from all work. And all the angels of the presence, and all the angels of sanctification, these two great classes he has bidden us to guard the Shabbath with him in heaven and on earth. And he said unto us: Behold, I will separate unto myself a people from among all the peoples, and these shall guard the Shabbath, and I will sanctify them unto myself as my people and will bless them; as I have sanctified the Shabbath and do sanctify it unto myself, even so will I bless them, and they shall be my people and I will be their ALA’AYM | Elohiym. And I have chosen the seed of Ya’oh ghakob | Jacob | Ya'aqov from amongst all that I have seen, and have written him down as my firstborn son, and have sanctified him unto myself forever and ever; and I will teach them the Shabbath, that they may guard the Shabbath thereon from all work. And thus he created therein a sign in accordance with which they should guard the Shabbath with us on the seventh day, to eat and to drink, and to bless him who has created all things as he has blessed and sanctified unto himself a peculiar people above all peoples, and that they should guard the Shabbath together with us.” Yovheliym (Jubilees) 2:18-22.

“Praise Yah | Halleluyah, Hallelu ye the name of YA’OH | YHWH | Yahuah; praise him, O ye servants of YA’OH | YHWH | Yahuah. Ye that stand in the house of YA’OH | YHWH | Yahuah, in the courts of the house of our ALA’AYM | Elohiym, Praise-Yah | Hallelu-Yah; for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant. For Yah has chosen Ya'aqov unto himself, and Yashar'el for his peculiar treasure. For I know that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah is great, and that our Master | Adonai is above all deities | elohiym. Whatsoever 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places…Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of you, O Matsraym | Egypt | Mitsrayim, upon Phar'oh, and upon all his servants…And gave their land for a heritage, a heritage unto Ya’ohsharal | Yashar'el his people. Your name, O YA’OH | Yahuah, endures forever; and your mention, O YA’OH | Yahuah, throughout all generations. For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants. The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not; They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths. They that make them are like unto them: so is everyone that trusts in them. Bless 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah, O house of Ya’ohsharal | Israel | Yashar'el: bless YHWH| Yahuah, O house of Aharon: Bless YHWH | Yahuah, O house of Leviy: ye that fear YHWH| Yahuah, bless YHWH | Yahuah. Blessed be YA’OH | YHWH | Yahuah out of Zion | Tsiyon, which dwells at Yaroshalam | Jerusalem | Yerushalayim. Praise Yah | Halleluyah” Tehilliym (Psalms) 135:1-6, 9, 12-21.

The Apostle “Peter” states:

“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: Kepha Ri'shon (1 Peter) 2:9.

We published an article on May 3rd, 2022 that also highlights our relationship to ABBA YAH:

'I am El Shaddai | The Almighty ALA’AYM; walk before me and be perfect.’

To The House or Family of YA’OH, even to the whole nation of Ya’ohsharal:

 “And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah appeared to Abram | Avram, and said unto him: 'I am El Shaddai | The Almighty ALA’AYM; walk before me and be perfect.” YOVHELIYM (JUBILEES) 15:3 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

From the time of Abram’s birth, there had been numerous attempts to destroy him:

 “And Terach took a woman and her name was Amthelo the daughter of Cornebo; and the woman of Terach conceived and bore him a son in those days. Terach was seventy years old when he begat him, and Terach called the name of his son that was born to him Abram | Avram, because the king had raised him in those days, and dignified him above all his princes that were with him.” YASHAR (JASHER) 7:50-51 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “AND it was in the night that Abram | Avram was born, that all the servants of Terach, and all the wise men of Nimrod, and his conjurors came and ate and drank in the house of Terach, and they rejoiced with him on that night. And when all the wise men and conjurors went out from the house of Terach, they lifted up their eyes toward heaven that night to look at the stars, and they saw, and behold one very large star came from the east and ran in the heavens, and he swallowed up the four stars from the four sides of the heavens. And all the wise men of the king and his conjurors were astonished at the sight, and the sages understood this matter, and they knew its import. And they said to each other, This only betokens the child that has been born to Terach this night, who will grow up and be fruitful, and multiply, and possess all the earth, he and his children forever, and he and his seed will slay great kings, and inherit their lands. And the wise men and conjurors went home that night, and in the morning all these wise men and conjurors rose up early, and assembled in an appointed house. And they spoke and said to each other, Behold the sight that we saw last night is hidden from the king, it has not been made known to him.” YASHAR (JASHER) 8:1-6 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “And the king said to the princes and sages, Have you heard what Abram | Avram, the son of Terach, has done to his father? Thus has he done to him, and I ordered him to be brought before me, and thus has he spoken; his heart did not misgive him, neither did he stir in my presence, and behold now he is confined in the prison. And therefore decide what judgment is due to this man who reviled the king; who spoke and did all the things that you heard. And they all answered the king saying, The man who reviles the king should be hanged upon a tree; but having done all the things that he said, and having despised our deities or gods | elohiym, he must therefore be burned to death, for this is the law in this matter. If it pleases the king to do this, let him order his servants to kindle a fire both night and day in your brick furnace, and then we will cast this man into it. And the king did so, and he commanded his servants that they should prepare a fire for three days and three nights in the king's furnace, that is in Kasdiym; and the king ordered them to take Abram | Avram from prison and bring him out to be burned. And all the king's servants, princes, adoniym, governors, and judges, and all the inhabitants of the land, about nine hundred thousand men, stood opposite the furnace to see Abram | Avram. And all the women and little ones crowded upon the roofs and towers to see what was doing with Abram | Avram, and they all stood together at a distance; and there was not a man left that did not come on that day to behold the scene.” YASHAR (JASHER) 12:3-8 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Nimrod sought to destroy Abram at the time of his birth, and again when he was around 52 years old. During this time, King Nimrod had a dream:

 “And at the expiration of two years from Abram’s | Avram's going out of the fire, that is in the fifty second year of his life, behold King Nimrod sat in Babel upon the throne, and the king fell asleep and dreamed that he was standing with his troops and hosts in a valley opposite the king's furnace. And he lifted up his eyes and saw a man in the likeness of Abram | Avram coming forth from the furnace, and that he came and stood before the king with his drawn sword, and then sprang to the king with his sword, when the king fled from the man, for he was afraid; and while he was running, the man threw an egg upon the king's head, and the egg became a great river. And the king dreamed that all his troops sank in that river and died, and the king took flight with three men who were before him and he escaped. And the king looked at these men and they were clothed in princely dresses as the garments of kings, and had the appearance and majesty of kings. And while they were running, the river again turned to an egg before the king, and there came forth from the egg a young bird which came before the king, and flew at his head and plucked out the king's eye. And the king was grieved at the sight, and he awoke out of his sleep and his ruach was agitated; and he felt a great terror.” YASHAR (JASHER) 12:45-50 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Our patriarch Abraham was the first to endure a fiery furnace! (The three young “Hebrew” men mentioned in the Book of Daniel were not the only ones that survived a fiery furnace!) 

 “And it was in the fifteenth year of Avram's dwelling in the land of Kena`an, which is the seventieth year of the life of Avram, and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah appeared to Abram | Avram in that year and he said to him, I am 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah who brought you out from Ur Kasdiym to give you this land for an inheritance.” YASHAR (JASHER) 13:17 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “Now therefore walk before me and be perfect and guard my commands, for to you and to your seed I will give this land for an inheritance, from the river Matsraym | Egypt | Mitsrayim unto the great river Euphrates | Perath. And you shall come to your fathers in peace and in good age, and the fourth generation shall return here in this land and shall inherit it forever; and Abram | Avram built an altar, and he called upon the name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah who appeared to him, and he brought up sacrifices upon the altar to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah. At that time Abram | Avram returned and went to Haran to see his father and mother, and his father's household, and Abram | Avram and his woman and all belonging to him returned to Haran, and Abram | Avram dwelt in Haran five years. And many of the people of Haran, about seventy two men, followed Abram | Avram and Abram | Avram taught them the instruction of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah and his ways, and he taught them to know 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah. In those days 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah appeared to Abram | Avram in Haran, and he said to him, Behold, I spoke unto you these twenty years back saying, Go forth from your land, from your birth place and from your father's house, to the land which I have shown you to give it to you and to your children, for there in that land will I bless you, and make you a great nation, and make your name great, and in you shall the families of the earth be blessed.” YASHAR (JASHER) 13:18-23 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Sarai, Haran’s daughter, his third child was Abram’s niece who later became his wife:

 “AND Haran, the son of Terach, Abram’s | Avram's oldest brother, took a woman in those days. Haran was thirty nine years old when he took her; and the woman of Haran conceived and bore a son, and he called his name Lot. And she conceived again and bore a daughter, and she called her name Milkah; and she again conceived and bore a daughter, and she called her name Sarai. Haran was forty two years old when he begat Sarai, which was in the tenth year of the life of Abram | Avram; and in those days Abram | Avram and his mother and nurse went out from the cave, as the king and his subjects had forgotten the affair of Abram | Avram. And when Abram | Avram came out from the cave, he went to Noach and his son Shem, and he remained with them to learn the instruction of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah and his ways, and no man knew where Abram | Avram was, and Abram | Avram served Nak | Noah | Noach and Shem his son for a long time. And Abram | Avram was in Noach's house thirty nine years, and Abram | Avram knew 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah from three years old, and he went in the ways of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah until the day of his death, as Noach and his son Shem had taught him; and all the sons of the earth in those days greatly transgressed against 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah, and they rebelled against him and they served other deities | elohiym, and they forgot 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah who had created them in the earth; and the inhabitants of the earth made unto themselves, at that time, every man his elohiym; elohiym of wood and stone which could neither speak, hear, nor deliver, and the sons of men served them and they became their elohiym.” YASHAR (JASHER) 9:1-6 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

The first seed of Abram came about as a result of his wife, Sarai was barren. She gave her handmaid, an “Egyptian” so that she would have a child through her. This turned out to be a decision she would soon regret:

 “NOW Sarai Abram’s |  Avram's woman bore him no children: and she had a handmaid, a Mitsriy, whose name was Ha'ger. And Sarai said unto AL-Abram | El-Avram, Behold now, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah has restrained me from bearing: I pray you, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram | Avram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.” BERE'SHIYTH (GENESIS) 16:1-2 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “…And Sarai said to Abram | Avram, Behold here is my handmaid Ha'ger, go to her that she may bring forth upon my knees, that I may also obtain children through her. And at the end of ten years of Abram’s | Avram's dwelling in the land of Kena`an, which is the eighty fifth year of Abram’s | Avram's life, Sarai gave Ha'ger unto him. And Abram | Avram hearkened to the voice of his woman Sarai, and he took his handmaid Ha'ger and Abram | Avram came to her and she conceived. And when Ha'ger saw that she had conceived she rejoiced greatly, and her mistress was despised in her eyes, and she said within herself, This can only be that I am better before ALA’AYM | Elohiym than Sarai my mistress, for all the days that my mistress has been with my adoniy, she did not conceive, but me 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah has caused in so short a time to conceive by him. And when Sarai saw that Ha'ger had conceived by Abram | Avram, Sarai was jealous of her handmaid, and Sarai said within herself, This is surely nothing else but that she must be better than I am. And Sarai said unto Abram | Avram, My wrong be upon you, for at the time when you did pray before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah for children why did you not pray on my account, that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah should give me seed from you?” YASHAR (JASHER) 16:26-31 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “And on that day we cut a covenant with Abram | Avram, according as we had covenanted with Noach in this month; and Abram | Avram renewed the feast and ordinance for himself forever.” YOVHELIYM (JUBILEES) 14:20 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “And Abram | Avram the son of Terach was then ninety nine years old. At that time 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah appeared to him and he said to him, I will make my covenant between me and you, and I will greatly multiply your seed, and this is the covenant which I make between me and you, that every male child be circumcised, you and your seed after you. At eight days old shall it be circumcised, and this covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant. And now therefore your name shall no more be called Avram | Abram but Abraham | Avraham, and your woman shall no more be called Sarai but Sarah. For I will bless you both, and I will multiply your seed after you that you shall become a great nation, and kings shall come forth from you.” YASHAR (JASHER) 17:16-20 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Abra(ha)m in all totality, had 8 sons. Of the offspring of Abram, Abba YA’OH ALA’AYM cut a covenant with only one of them. That promised seed would come through “Isaac”, Sara(h)’s only son:

 “And ALA’AYM | Elohiym said, Sarah your woman shall bear you a son indeed; and you shall call his name Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. And as for Ya’oh-shmai-al | Ishmael | Yishma'el, I have heard you: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. But my covenant will I establish with Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq, which Sarah shall bear unto you at this set time in the next year.” Bara’shayth | BERE'SHIYTH (GENESIS) 17:19-21 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Because of that covenant, Twelve princes or tribes would spring forth from them. So who are they, and where are they today? 

 “AND 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah visited Sarah as he had said, and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah did unto Sarah as he had spoken. For Sarah conceived, and bore Abra(ha)m | Avraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which ALA’AYM | Elohiym had spoken to him. And Abra(ha)m | Avraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bore to him, Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq. And Abra(ha)m | Avraham circumcised his son Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq being eight days old, as ALA’AYM | Elohiym had commanded him. And Abra(ha)m | Avraham was a hundred years old, when his son Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq was born את unto him.

We are their descendants, here in this land of opportunity!

As you can see, we are as numerous as the sand on the seashore, or as the stars of Heaven. 

We are the primary ones who must keep the original Thorah or Commandments of Abba YA’OH as they were written. They were preserved for us, because we are under that covenanted relationship with Him. The promise that he made to our forefathers applies directly to us. Because he is our Heavenly Father. His rules are established forever. He never did away with the laws he gave to our ancestors:

As we stated before, Abram had 6 additional sons after “Isaac:”

 “AND again Abra(ha)m | Avraham took a woman, and her name was Qeturah. And she bore him (1) Zimran, and (2) Yoqshan, and (3) Medan, and (4) Midyan, and (5) Yishbaq, and (6) Shuach. And Yoqshan begat Sheva, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Ashshuriym, and Letushiym, and Le'ummiym. And the sons of Midyan; Eyphah, and Epher, and Chanok, and Aviyda, and Elda`ah. All these were the children of Qeturah. And Abra(ha)m | Avraham gave all that he had unto Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq. But unto the sons of the concubines, which Avraham had, Abra(ha)m | Avraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country.” Bara’shayth | BERE'SHIYTH (GENESIS) 25:1-6 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “And Abraham | Avraham took to himself a third woman, and her name was Qeturah, from among the daughters of his household servants, for Ha'ger had died before Sarah. And she bore him six sons, Zimran, and Yoqshan, and Medan, and Midyan, and Yishbaq, and Shuach, in the two weeks of years.” YOVHELIYM (JUBILEES) 19:11-12 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

 “AND in the forty second jubilee, in the first year of the seventh week, Abra(ha)m | Avraham called Ya’oh-shmai-al | Ishmael | Yishma'el, and his twelve sons, and Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq and his two sons, and the six sons of Qeturah, and their sons. And he commanded them that they should observe the Way of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah; that they should work righteousness, and love each his neighbor, and act on this manner amongst all men; that they should each so walk with regard to them as to do judgment and righteousness on the earth. That they should circumcise their sons, according to the covenant which he had made with them, and not deviate to the right hand or the left of all the paths which 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah had commanded us; and that we should guard ourselves from all fornication and uncleanness, and renounce from amongst us all fornication and uncleanness. And if any woman or maid commit fornication amongst you, burn her with fire and let them not commit fornication with her after their eyes and their heart; and let them not take to themselves women from the daughters of Kena`an; for the seed of Kena`an will be rooted out of the land. And he told them of the judgment of the Naphaliym, and the judgment of the sodomiym, how they had been judged on account of their wickedness, and had died on account of their fornication, and uncleanness, and mutual corruption through fornication. 'And guard yourselves from all fornication and uncleanness, and from all pollution of sin, lest ye make our name a curse, and your whole life a hissing, and all your sons to be destroyed by the sword, and ye become accursed like Sodom | Cedom, and all your remnant as the sons of Gomorrah | Amorah.” YOVHELIYM (JUBILEES) 20:1-6 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Abram gave these instructions to all of his sons, his offspring:

 “I implore you, my sons, love the ALA’AYM | Elohiym of heaven and cleave ye to all his commandments. And walk not after their idols, and after their uncleannesses, and make not for yourselves molten or graven elohiym; For they are vanity, and there is no spirit or life | ruach in them; For they are work of men's hands, and all who trust in them, trust in nothing. Serve them not, nor worship them, but serve ye The Most High AL | El Elyon, and worship him continually: And hope for his countenance always, and work uprightness and righteousness before him, that he may have pleasure in you and grant you his mercy, and send rain upon you morning and evening, and bless all your works which ye have wrought upon the earth, and bless your bread and your water, and bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your land, and the herds of your cattle, and the flocks of your sheep. And ye will be for a blessing on the earth, and all nations of the earth will desire you, and bless your sons in my name, that they may be blessed as I am. And he gave to Yishma'el and to his sons, and to the sons of Qeturah, gifts, and sent them away from Ya’oh-tsakhak | Isaac - Yitschaq his son, and he gave everything to Yitschaq his son. And Ya’oh-shmai-al | Ishmael | Yishma'el and his sons, and the sons of Qeturah and their sons, went together and dwelt from Pa'ran to the entering in of Babel in all the land which is towards the east facing the desert.” YOVHELIYM (JUBILEES) 20:7-12 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Not only do all the children of Abram have to be repatriated into the Family of YA’OH, all families of the earth are too, in order to fulfill the reason for his name-change.

 “And these mingled with each other, and their name was called Araviym, and Yishma'e'liym.  YOVHELIYM (JUBILEES) 20:13 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

We see throughout the pages of our Biblical History, Abba YA’OH’s goal was to bring all families of the earth into His Family!

He gave the prophet “Isaiah” this prophecy at (Isaiah) 9:6. Among the titles bestowed upon him, his government and justice will always be there, because he sits upon the throne of our forefather Do’ayd:

 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, El Gibbor, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of Do’ayd | David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH of Hosts | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah Tseva'oth will perform this.” Yashai-Ya’oh | YESHA'YAHU (ISAIAH) 9:6-7 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Please watch the YouTube video published by Ya’ohdah Ban Dor to learn how vast the promised land truly was when our ancestors lived there. It was much larger than what the people living there now established in 1948! “THE LAND OF YA’OH: Our land, it’s correct location and boundaries.” #EXODUS2023 Ravenous Bird • Published on August 31, 2021.

Abba YA’OH also arranged for His Beloved Son Ya’ohshai to come from the seed of “Abraham,” “through Isaac,” through king Do’ayd | “David,” and from the tribe of Ya’ohdah | “Judah!”

 “NOW when 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 | Ya’ohshai | יהושע | YHWShA- Yahusha was born in Beyt Lechem of Yahud in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came Magi from the east to Yaroshalam | Yerushalayim, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Yahudiym? for we have seen his star rising in the east, and are come to worship him. When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Yaroshalam | Yerushalayim with him. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Mashiach should be born. And they said unto him, In Beyt Lechem | House of Bread of Yahud: for thus it is written by the prophet, And you Beyt Lechem, in the land of Ya’ohdah | Yahudah, are not the least among the princes of Ya’ohdah | Yahudah: for out of you shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Ya’ohsharal | Yashar'el.” MATTITHYAHU (MATTHEW) 2:1-6 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Just like Abram at or around the time of his birth, our Savior Ya’ohshai, had another king who tried to destroy him! Even though He did have to die for our sins, Abba YA’OH brought him back to life. He now has Everlasting or Eternal Life and is the first to be granted such by our Heavenly Father! 

Ya’ohshai | YHWShA - Yahusha answered

My Kingdom is not of this world: if my Kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Yahudiym: but now is my Kingdom not from hence. Pilate therefore said unto him, Are you a King then? 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 | Ya’ohshai | יהושע | YHWShA - Yahusha answered, You say that I am a King. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the Truth. Everyone that is of the Truth hears my voice. Pilate said unto him, What is Truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Yahudiym, and said unto them, I find in him no fault at all. But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the Pesach | Passover | Pecach: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Yahudiym? Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Bar Abba. Now Bar Abba was a robber.” YOCHANON (JOHN) 18:36-40 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Always remember, it is Abba YA’OH who chose us to be his inheritance:

“Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age, and Sarah was past the way of women. And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, “ After I have grown old, shall I have pleasure, my master being old too?” And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Shall I truly have a child, since I am old?’ “Is any matter too hard for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄?…And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing, since Abraham is certainly going to become a great and mighty nation, and all nations of the earth shall be barak | blessed in him? “For I have known him, so that he commands his children and his household after him, to guard the Way of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, to do righteousness and Right-Ruling, so that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 brings to Abraham what He has spoken to him.” Bara’shayth | BERESHITH (GENESIS) 18:11-13, 17-19. HalleluYah Scriptures Bible 

Ya’ohshai

 “Seeing that Abra(ha)m | Avraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall guard the Way of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah, to do justice and judgment; that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah may bring upon Abra(ha)m | Avraham את that which he has spoken of him.” Bara’shayth | BERE'SHIYTH (GENESIS) 18:18-19 את - CEPHER Publishing Group.

Our forefather Abram experienced first a fiery furnace ordeal during the reign of Nimrod.

This was after the Flood of “Noah’s Day”! 

*We added the following at the time of this writing to reveal what was similarly experienced by the three young Hebrew men at the hands of king Nebuchadnezzar during Daniel’s time. 

They are mentioned here in the Prayer of “Azariah” at:

“And they walked in the midst of the fire, praising ALA’AYM | Elohiym, and blessing YA’OH | Yahuah. Then Azaryahu stood up, and prayed on this manner; and opening his mouth in the midst of the fire said, Blessed are you, O YA’OH ALA’AYM | Yahuah Elohiym of our fathers: your name is worthy to be praised and glorified forevermore: For you are righteous in all the things that you have done to us: yea, true are all your works, your ways are right, and all your judgments truth. In all the things that you have brought upon us, and upon the holy city of our fathers, even Yaroshalam | Yerushalayim, you have executed true judgment: for according to truth and judgment did you bring all these things upon us because of our sins. For we have sinned and committed iniquity, departing from you. In all things have we trespassed, and not obeyed your commandments, nor kept them, neither done as you have commanded us, that it might go well with us. Wherefore all that you have brought upon us, and everything that you have done to us, you have done in true judgment. And you did deliver us into the hands of Torahless enemies, most hateful forsakers of ALA’AYM | Elohiym, and to an unjust king, and the most wicked in all the world. And now we cannot open our mouths, we are become a shame and reproach to your servants; and to them that worship you. Yet deliver us not up wholly, for your name's sake, neither disannul your covenant: And cause not your mercy to depart from us, for your beloved Abraham | Avraham's sake, for your servant Yitschaq's sake, and for your holy Ya’ohsharal | Yashar'el's sake; To whom you have spoken and promised, that you would multiply their seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that lies upon the seashore. For we, O YA’OH | Yahuah, are become less than any nation, and be kept under this day in all the world because of our sins. Neither is there at this time prince, or prophet, or leader, or ascending smoke offering, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place to sacrifice before you, and to find mercy. Nevertheless in a contrite heart and a humble spirit | ruach let us be accepted. Like as in the ascending smoke offerings of rams and bullocks, and like as in ten thousands of fat lambs: so let our sacrifice be in your sight this day, and grant that we may wholly go after you: for they shall not be confounded that put their trust in you. And now we follow you with all our heart, we fear you, and seek your face. Put us not to shame: but deal with us after your lovingkindness, and according to the multitude of your mercies. Deliver us also according to your marvelous works, and give glory to your name, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah: and let all of them that do your servants hurt be ashamed; And let them be confounded in all their power and might, and let their strength be broken; And let them know that you are ALA’AYM | Elohiym, the only ALA’AYM | Elohiym, and glorious over the whole world. And the king's servants, that put them in, ceased not to make the oven hot with rosin, pitch, tow, and small wood; So that the flame streamed forth above the furnace forty and nine cubits. And it passed through and burned those Kasdiym it found about the furnace. But the angel of YA’OH | Yahuah came down into the oven together with Azaryahu and his fellows and smote the flame of the fire out of the oven; And made the midst of the furnace as it had been a moist whistling wind, so that the fire touched them not at all, neither hurt nor troubled them. Then the three, as out of one mouth, praised, glorified, and blessed, ALA’AYM | Elohiym in the furnace, saying: Blessed are you, O Yahuah | YA’OH ALA’AYM | Elohiym of our fathers: and to be praised and exalted above all forever.” Tephillah Azaryahu (Prayer Of Azariah) 1:1-29.

“And blessed is your glorious and holy name: and to be praised and exalted above all forever. Blessed are you in the Temple of your holy glory: and to be praised and glorified above all forever. Blessed are you that behold the depths and sit upon the Keruviym: and to be praised and exalted above all forever. Blessed are you on the glorious throne of your Kingdom: and to be praised and glorified above all forever. Blessed are you in the expanse of heaven: and above all to be praised and glorified forever. O all ye works of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah, bless ye Yahuah: praise and exalt him above all forever, O ye heavens, bless ye 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah: praise and exalt him above all forever. O ye angels of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 | YA’OH | יהוה | YHWH - Yahuah, bless ye Yahuah: praise and exalt him above all forever.” Tephillah Azaryahu (Prayer Of Azariah) 1:30-37.

We would be missing a golden opportunity to describe how massive the Family of our Creator is if we didn’t tell you about those who have been “Grafted In”

Let’s turn to the Scripture recorded in Romans Chapter 11:

“I say then: Has ALA’AYM | Elohiym cast away his people? Never. For I also am a Yashar'e'liy | an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham | Avraham, of the tribe of Benjamin | Binyamiyn. ALA’AYM | Elohiym has not cast away his people which he foreknew. Know ye not what the Scripture says of Eliyahu? How he makes intercession to ALA’AYM | Elohiym against Ya’ohsharal | Yashar'el, saying: YA’OH | Yahuah, they have killed your prophets, and dug down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life. But what says the answer of ALA’AYM | Elohiym unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Ba'al. Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.” Romaiym (Romans) 11:1-5.

“And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. What then? את Ya’ohsharal | Israel | Yashar'el has not obtained that which he seeks for; but the election has obtained it, and the rest were blinded (According as it is written, ALA’AYM | Elohiym has given them the ruach | spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day. And Do’ayd | David says, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and a recompence unto them: Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back always.” Romaiym (Romans) 11:6-10

“I say then: Have they stumbled that they should fall? Never: but rather through their fall salvation or deliverance | yeshu'ah is come unto the other nations, for to provoke them to jealousy. Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the other nations; how much more their fulness? For I speak to you other nations, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the other nations, I magnify my office: If by any means I may provoke to emulation את them which are my flesh and might save some of them. For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?” Romaiym (Romans) 11:11-15

“For if the first fruits be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches. And if some of the branches be broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them partake of the root and fatness of the olive tree; Boast not against the branches. But if you boast, you bear not the root, but the root you. You will say then: The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in. Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Be not high-minded, but fear:” Romaiym (Romans) 11:16-20.

“For if ALA’AYM | Elohiym spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not you. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of ALA’AYM | Elohiym: on them which fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness: otherwise you also shall be cut off. And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for ALA’AYM | Elohiym is able to graft them in again. For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Ya’ohsharal | Israel | Yashar'el, until the fulness of the other nations come in.”Romaiym (Romans) 11:21-25.

“And so all Ya’ohsharal | Yashar'el shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Zion | Tsiyon the Deliverer and shall turn away wickedness from Jacob | Ya'aqov: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. As concerning the Good News or Gospel | Besorah, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. For the gifts and calling of ALA’AYM | Elohiym are without repentance. For as ye in times past have not believed ALA’AYM | Elohiym yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:” Romaiym (Romans) 11:26-30.

“Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy. For ALA’AYM | Elohiym has concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all. O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of ALA’AYM | Elohiym! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who has known the mind of YA’OH | YHWH | Yahuah? Or who has been his counselor? Or who has first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory forever. Let it be so or So Be it | Amein.“ Romaiym (Romans) 11:31-36.

In conclusion, it is true, “For Yah has chosen “Jacob” | Ya'aqov unto himself, and Ya’ohsharal | Israel | Yashar'el for his peculiar treasure.” Tehilliym (Psalms) 135:4.

In addition to the nation of Ya’ohsharal, ALA’AYM’s family is massive! It includes all those who have been “Grafted In”.

In fact, it will someday include all families of the Earth:

“And he made an end of speaking and praying and behold the Word of YA’OH |  Yahuah was sent to him through me, saying: Get you up from your country, and from your kindred and from the house of your father unto a land which I will show you, and I shall make you a great and numerous nation. And I will bless you and I will make your name great, and you shall be blessed in the earth, and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed, and I will bless them that bless you, and curse them that curse you. And I will be an ALA’AYM | Elohiym to you and your son, and to your son's son, and to all your seed: fear not, from henceforth and unto all generations of the earth I am your ALA’AYM | Elohiym. And YA’OH ALA’AYM | Yahuah Elohiym said: Open his mouth and his ears, that he may hear and speak with his mouth, with the language which has been revealed; for it had ceased from the mouths of all the children of men from the day of the overthrow of Babel. And I opened his mouth, and his ears and his lips, and I began to speak with him in Ivriyt in the tongue of the creation.” Yovheliym (Jubilees) 12:22-26.
