Information gleamed from it.
This Rabbi honored the Covenant between God and His People Israel. The Torah- (Instruction) The Law of Moses and the 10 Commandments given by God to Moses on Mt Horeb. He taught the Word and serviced God out of Love and not Pride. The Jewish people are taught that God is “afar off” and unknowable, too holy to interact with. Yet the Father of Faith, Abraham and Moses were on a “one on one” speaking terms. The bible says that God is not afar off but that He is near. His ear is not hard that it can’t hear nor His arm short that it can’t save. Blindness has come upon Israel for a time and a season till the Fullness of the Gentiles is brought into the Fold. Imagine when both Jew and Gentile will worship God with One Voice in the Unity and the Bond of the Spirit. He wasn’t just told the Truth, but felt it. A deep sense of Knowing that penetrated his whole being. The Bible says one day the Earth will be washed in the Word and full of the Knowledge of God. In Gods Presence all Illusions fall away and the Truth is Known.
Jesus pointed to specific scriptures found in the Torah, the Old Testament in the Christian Bible that was pointing to Him. The Law wasn’t the destination but the “Sign Post” to follow leading to Him. He said He came not to abolish the Law but to fulfil it. This Rabbi was shown visions of the Scriptures in real life, like he was actually there witnessing these events unfold.

8And Abraham said, “My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering.”
13Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son. 14And Abraham called the name of the place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”
15Then the Angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time out of heaven, 16and said: “By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son— 17blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. 18In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”
Abraham passed Gods test and his son Isaac was spared. God provided the sacrifice. Because of His Faith, God blessed Him and made Him the Father of many nations. The Father of the Jewish, Muslim and Christian Faith. Abrahams son was spared but it was a foreshadow of what was to come. God would send His Son Yeshua, (Jesus in Greek) to the cross to die as the unblemished (pure and holy without sin) Passover Lamb of God, for the Sins of the World. A Pure and Holy, Righteous God must judge Sin and thus only the Son of God was without sin, born of a Virgin and lived a perfect life doing the Fathers Will. The Bible says while we were yet still sinners Christ died for Us. So we could have our sins forgiven and enter into a relationship with God the Father through His Son Yeshua as it is written:
New King James Version 2:8
“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,”
- Exodus 12 The Passover Instituted
| New King James Version | 7And they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel of the houses where they eat it. |
The blood on the doorposts..
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/exodus/12.htm
“And when I see the blood, I will pass over you;” 12:12 NKJV.
Gods Judgement will pass over those who have the Blood of the Lamb applied to the doorpost of their hearts.
New King James Version Romans 8:1.
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

The Bronze Serpent
4Then they set out from Mount Hor along the route to the Red Sea, in order to bypass the land of Edom. But the people grew impatient on the journey 5and spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you led us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread or water, and we detest this wretched food!”6So the LORD sent venomous snakes among the people, and many of the Israelites were bitten and died.7Then the people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned by speaking against the LORD and against you. Intercede with the LORD so He will take the snakes away from us.” So Moses interceded for the people.
8Then the LORD said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent and mount it on a pole. When anyone who is bitten looks at it, he will live.” 9So Moses made a bronze snake and mounted it on a pole. If anyone who was bitten looked at the bronze snake, he would live.

Psalm 22:16-18 NKJV https://biblehub.com/bsb/psalms/22.htm
“For dogs surround me; a band of evil men encircles me; they have pierced my hands and feet. 17 I can count all my bones; they stare and gloat over me. 18They divide my garments among the and cast lots for my clothing.”
Lots were cast for Jesus garments as He was hung on the cross at Calvary. His hands , feet and side pierced, yet no bones were broken fulfilling Scripture.
New King James Version Matthew 27:35
Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet: “They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots.”
Not random texts but a divine puzzle. God used real life events to foreshadow things to come. For It is God who knows the end from the beginning and declares it (Isaiah 46:10). New King James Version
For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. The Truth is a Sword that pierces the veil that blocks Man from seeing and knowing the Truth. It removes blindness, lies and deception. It is written, God is Love and God is Light and in Him there is no darkness. (1st john 4:16 & 1st John 1:5). Mans heart was darkened because they didn’t honor God and Glorify God but rather made and serviced false gods made out of gold, wood and stone. New King James Version
because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Romans 1:21.
As we align ourselves with the Truth found in Gods Word we ascend into higher states of consciousness and vibrate with a higher vibration. We feel a deeper sense of knowing and being Known by God. We feel His Love, Joy and Peace. Thus we love one another as Christ commanded us to do.If we choose disobedience and live in rebellion to God, (the Bible refers to as Sin) our foolish hearts are darkened and stumble in the darkness, knowing confusion instead of receiving Understanding from Gods Holy Spirit.
Jesus spoke of Love and Truth to the Rabbi as well and showed him heaven and hell. He sent him to share what he has seen and heard and known to teach and help others come to the fullness of the knowledge of the Truth.
- Love does not force it invites.
- Truth must be chosen.
- Gods acceptance or rejection is a choice we all have to make.
- They looked for Power and not Love, a Throne and not a Cross.
As it was written, King James Bible John 1:11.
He came unto his own, and his own received him not. The Jewish people during the time of Jesus and the Crucifixion, were looking for a Conqueror King to defeat the Roman Occupation and establish His Kingdom, build the Temple and bring Peace. Like a lamb led to the slaughter he opened not his mouth. The Prophet Daniel spoke that the messiah would be cut off from His people. (Daniel 9:26) The Messiah had to suffer and die (Isaiah 53) and just as the serpent was raised up in the wilderness and brought healing so the Son of Man had to be raised up on the 3rd day.
4Surely He has borne our [g]griefs
And carried our [h]sorrows;
Yet we [i]esteemed Him stricken,
[j]Smitten by God, and afflicted.
5But He was wounded[k] for our transgressions,
He was [l]bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes[m] we are healed.
6All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord [n]has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/isaiah/53.htm
He came the first time as the Lamb of God. When the appointed time comes, He will return as the Lion of Judah, with great power and glory. Then will the World be judged and Peace restored. Maranatha.

The True Vine
1“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He [a]takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
5“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you[b] will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.
Love and Joy Perfected
9“As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.
11“These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. 12This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. 14You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. 15No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. 16You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. 17These things I command you, that you love one another.
The World’s Hatred
18“If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. 19If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also. 21But all these things they will do to you for My name’s sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me. 22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23He who hates Me hates My Father also. 24If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would have no sin; but now they have seen and also hated both Me and My Father. 25But this happened that the word might be fulfilled which is written in their law, ‘They hated Me without a cause.’
The Coming Rejection
26“But when the [c]Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me. 27And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.
