The Pan-Arab identity and the Pan-Arab unity are the talking points in this article, but, first who are the Arabs and what is the Pan-Arab identity? The Aramean Arabs from Nachor, Avraham’s brother From the Biblical account in Gen 11:26 we learn that Terach lived seventy years, and brought forth Avram (that is Avraham), Nachor, and Haran.

Is it in accordance with the Torah to call the Messiah Yeshua ‘Elohim’? To answer this question, first we need to find out what the Hebrew word “elohim” means. It may be a surprise for the reader to learn that there is no specific word in Hebrew that denotes what in the Gentile languages is known as “god”. The word “God” (German: “Gott”) is an abstract word that denotes a concept of any supernatural being...

The Parable of the Good Samaritan is perhaps the most recognizable parable among the Christians today, and the term the Good Samaritan has become synonymous with a good person and a good Christian. On the opposite side, however, very often the Parable of the Good Samaritan has been used to denote “Pharisaic hypocrisy”, as the parable has been interpreted as an apparent illustration of “religious legalism”. But is this the true story of the parable?...

Who is the prophet YHVH promised to Israel in Deu 18:15? Is this any prophet from the midst of Israel, or the Prophet promised from the very beginning of the world? We read from Deu 18:15-16 thus, Yehovah your Elohim shall raise up for you a prophet like me from your midst, from your brothers. Listen to him, according to all you asked of Yehovah your Elohim in Horev in the day of the assembly, saying, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of Yehovah my Elohim, nor let me...

Who is meant in the seven letters to the seven churches and why are they given exactly before the events that will transpire in the following chapters in Revelation? These are the questions whose answer we will try to find in this article. But before we begin, the present author has to admit that it was very challenging and difficult for him to come to any decisive conclusions over the years. The concise language in the short letters to the seven churches in Revelation made...

The letter to Smyrna is the shortest letter of the seven letters to the seven churches in Revelation. Nevertheless, it is a complete and meaningful letter from YHVH to the faithful believers in Him and in His Son Yeshua the Messiah. So far, we studied five out of seven letters to the assemblies in Asia Minor: the letter to the church of Ephesus, to the churches in Pergamos, Thyatira, and Sardis, and the letter to the Laodiceans. And in the last article we studied as to why...

The letter to the church in Sardis, one of the seven letters to the seven churches Yeshua wrote, was a letter to a dead church.

On the day of Pentecost, according to the Christian tradition and theology, in the upper room of apostle Peter, a new religious entity called “the Church” was born apart from Israel. The “proof text” the Christian theologians find is in Act 2:1-2, as we read from KJV translation. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it...

What was the message Yeshua delivered in the letter to the church in Pergamos? He commended them for having held fast to His Name and not having denied the faith in Him, but what did He criticize them for? The heading And to the messenger of the assembly in Pergamos write, ‘He who has the sharp two-edged sword, says this: (Rev 2:12) The warning in the letter to the church in Pergamos The message I know your works, and where you dwell, where the throne of Satan is.

Posted by Navah on Apr 14, 2018 in The Revelation from YHVH, The War of Gog of Magog
The Book of Revelation is rightly called the most prophetic book in the entire Bible. There is no other book in the Bible that has so many prophecies in it. The dramatic events of the seven seals, the seven trumpets, and seven bowls will start the last three and half years commonly known as the Tribulation of this world, or the sounding of the seven trumpets. The Book of Revelation encompasses all prophecy from Gen 3:15 to Rev 22:21-22 concerning the coming and return of...
