Kingdom Come

Many nationalities fled Nimrod’s oppression by placing themselves under the rule of Ab-ram / Father [of the Hebrew] nation.

Were else did  get 318 trained warriors “born in his own house[hold]” if not from a much larger group of people under his authority?

Based on historical data that the adult population in a typical polity in the Middle Ages could support only one fighting man for every 15 adults maximum, Abram therefore led an immigrant population into Canaan of about 5,000 refugees who won converts to their religion by recounting Melchizedek’s exploits around the fires at night, which were as recent as our own heroic war stories.

1. Adam at creation and battling Antichrist Cain for almost 1,000 years
2. The pre-flood Melchizedeks who battled the Antichrists, pagan gods and hybrid monsters before the flood, see Section XX for details
3. The post-flood Melchizedeks Noah and Shem in their battles with Gilgamesh / Sargon and Canaan’s hybrid giants,  Abram under Nimrod at Ur then defeating the giants in Canaan.

“What shall we say then that Abraham our / the Jews’ father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?…what saith the scripture?

Abraham believed God…faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness…when he was  in uncircumcision...that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also…” (Romans 4:1-13)

“there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek /non-Jew: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved…faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.” (Romans 10:12-18)

The image for this post was chosen for its accurate reflection of the Hero’s lone stand against political corruption, lack of any law and order in society and the common person’s desperate hope for new life – mainly simply life itself – to replace constant suffering ending only in certain and pointless death.

Human nature being consistent across time and cultures, we can match the post-flood stage of settling wilderness land to the United States’ settling of the Wild West. 

“Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee…

1. And I will make of thee [out of your personal loins] a [singular] great nation…(Genesis 35:10-12)
2. and in thee [in thy seed] shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

So Abram departed…out of Haran…and into the land of Canaan they came.” (Genesis 12:1-7, 22:17-19. 35:10-12)

YHVH just sent Abram onto the front line of battle against Antichrist’s nations of hybrid monsters!

At the time of the Land Grant to unnamed seed in chapter 13, Abram had no seed.

His first seed is Ishmael, whose mother was Egyptian, i.e. from the line of Cush.

^“And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife…I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her…And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!” (Genesis 17)

Understand what Abraham is requesting when he uses the formulaic phrase “live before thee / be accepted permanently in thy presence as a ruler of your kingdom.”

Many of the old Babylonian letters…include a greetings formula in which one or two deities are invoked and the hope is expressed that they will give long life to the recipient.

Abraham is clearly following the same formula, also used towards kings in expressing good wishes for the extension of their life / genetics / ongoing rule over the kingdom through their heirs. The contrary condition helps define this blessing. 

“whosoever, whether man or women, shall come unto the king into the inner court, who is not called, there is one law of his to put him to death, except such to whom the king shall hold out the golden sceptre, that he may live:” (Esther 4:11)

“When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory…Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:” (Matthew 25:31,34)

Abram is asking that his descent / dynasty also be counted from Ishmael who would therefore also be an heir of the land grant made 15 years earlier.

And God grants Abram’s request.

Archaeological evidence shows a plethora of ancient curses…such beliefs and practices have continued to the present day…sometimes called jinx, hex, or black magic…The aim is to see harm befall the recipient – bad luck may dog them, death may take them, or any number of dire (or annoying) fates may plague them. In antiquity a curse was a powerful phenomenon, the presence of evil forces.

Jacob wins the sibling tug of war for the appointment because he values it so much he risks multiple curses on his life, beginning with the risk of being severely cursed by his own father,

Then Jacob was forced to flee his home and inheritance when he was cursed by his brother.

“And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and…he lighted upon a certain place…And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed; And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth,  and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep / guard / provide for thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land…

And Jacob vowed a vow, saying,

• If [this] God [of the many gods known to men at that time] will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, So that I come again to my father’s house in peace;
• then shall the LORD be my God: And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God’s house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.” (Genesis 28)

Jacob is being rational, checking out the faithfulness of the other party before committing to a disaster of being bound to a cruel master. And Jacob was living in highly unreliable and dangerous Wild West times.

And YHVH obliges Jacob by providing proof after proof of his faithfulness to rescue Jacob from curse after curse. Will Jacob prove to be faithful to YHVH?

Jacob / Israel chose Judah as his Melchizedekian heir.

“Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise… thy father’s children shall bow down before thee [as they had to Joseph]…The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.” (Genesis 49:8-11)

We recognize Judah’s legacy in the name of the Jews. But what on earth did Judah do to inherit the right to rule? We would expect Melchizedek Joseph’s son Ephraim, whom Israel had adopted as his own, to be next in line. Especially in view of the fact that when Judah joined himself and his sons to Canaanite women he appears to be rejecting his identity as a son of Jacob. East of Eden all over again. Judah was far more Cain than Abel.

Six chapters out of a total of 50  – over 1/10th of the entire book of Genesis – devoted to the backstory of Judah’s inheritance of the right to rule.

Due to their sexual and violent nature, these were not put there for use in children’s Sunday School.

“Now Israel loved [in the sense of marriage, joined identies with] Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his [maturity, wisdom] old age: and he made him a coat of many colours.”

Undoubtedly the sign of his choice of Joseph being his Melchizedekian heir, confirmed by the dreams God had given Joseph. 

And when his brethren saw that their father loved / felt one with him more than all his brethren [i.e. as the LORD God had when he made Jacob his heir over Esau] they hated / repudiated identity with him.” (Genesis 37)

And it was into this exact dangerous and lawless condition that Jacob sent Joseph to check on his erratic older brothers.

“And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them.”

Jacob was acting on his appointment, providing leadership training, especially trust in Almighty God. Jacob had no idea just how much leadership training Joseph would be getting when his brothers human trafficked him into Egypt.

If you’ve ever been assigned leadership responsibility you understand that it’s lonely at the top.

And when they saw him afar off…they conspired against him…Come, and let us sell him…Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.” (Genesis 37:13-28)

“And [YHVH] said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years…But in the fourth generation [counting from the one entering Egypt] they shall come hither again.” (Genesis 15:12-16)

“And Joseph [1st generation of immigrants] said unto his brethren [including his son Ephraim’s children to the 3rd generation, i.e. his 4th generation, predicted to return], I die: and God will surely visit YOU / the fourth generation, and bring YOU out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.” (Genesis 15:15, 50:24-26)

And young Moses [4th generation], son of Amram [3rd generation], grandson of Kohath [2nd generation], great-grandson of Levi [1st generation of immigrants], filled with vigor and zeal, was up for it.

“When Moses was grown…he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren. And…he slew the Egyptian. Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian.”

Catch that – the “face” of Pharoah is anyone “representing” him as his “agent”, such as a bounty hunter. Midian had to be fortified against Pharoah’s military, not some dusty backwater Appalachian-like cluster of villages.

“Now the priest of Midian…”

Once again, we are presented with evidence that Midian was a significant nation, since at that time the priest was also the king.

And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me.

Yet thou hast said:

1. I know / define THEE by name / way – i.e. exactly as Moses’ mother had defined him as belonging to her by identifying him by her attributes of rescuing him from certain death by her way of drawing him out of the water, safeguarding him from all of Pharoah’s subjects who would have thrown him back in.
   • Now therefore…shew me now THY way, that I may know THEE: “He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters. He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.” (Psalm 18:16-17)
2. AND thou [Moses] hast also found grace in my [YHVH’s] sight – exactly as Moses had found grace in Pharaoh’s daughter’s eyes when she raised him up as a prince of Egypt. 
   • that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that THIS [my] nation is THY people: “Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter; Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God…Esteeming the reproach of The Promised Savior greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.” (Hebrews 11:24-26)

For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in that THOU goest with US?  

Exactly as his mother accompanied him into a Hebrew’s most dangerous place on earth – Pharaoh’s presence.

And YHVH responds in the affirmative:

• I will make all my goodness pass before thee,
• and I will proclaim the name / attributes / way of the LORD / YHVH / Infinite Power before thee;

[But, by the way] Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live…

Mensch (Yiddish: מענטש, mentsh, from Middle High German Mensch, from Old High German mennisco; akin to Old English human being, man) means “a person of integrity and honor”,^[1]  a decent human being…a caring, ethical human being.” The term is used as a high compliment, implying the rarity and value of that individual’s qualities.

It seems to me that the Yiddish word mensch, intentionally or not, blends the Old English “man” with the Hebrew word for man “ish”, identifying not maleness but “another one like him”, describing a human who is one with the Father.

A Melchizedek.

• “if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant,
  • then…ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation.” (Exodus 19:5-6)
• “Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
  • And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father” (Revelation 1:5-7)

Are these two entirely separate means of achieving the same goal? Or has Christianity skipped over the first pages in the instruction manual on how to be kings and priests to God the Father / Absolute Authority under the Great High Priest?

Most of us are familiar with the Lord’s Prayer, AKA The Our Father, but are we as familiar with the introduction, which lists the qualifications for calling the Lord God our Father?
