(NASB)<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> David states in the best way that he can and in the way that he understands, the Lord is the creator.

It is interesting how he uses the word <\/span><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e8\u05d5\u05d7<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> in reference to His messengers.

David continues describing the creation saying, the Lord covers the deep with a garment (104:6), He rebukes the waters and they flee (104:7), the mountains rose (104:8), and the Lord set the boundary of the earth (104:9). It is the Lord who sends forth rains and springs (104:10), and He sustains beasts (104:11), birds (104:12), and man with the vegetation of the earth (104:14). In this way it is the Lord who produces wine making man\u2019s heart glad (104:15), he feeds and waters the trees (104:16), and provides a place for the birds to roost (104:17), and for the wild goats to dwell (104:18). The Lord made the sun and moon for seasons (104:19), and night time for the predators to seek their prey (104:21). The Lord provides all of these things so man may go out to work (104:23), and may recognize how the Lord is awesome and wise (104:24). The psalm concludes saying, <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">104:31 Let the glory of the Lord endure forever; Let the Lord be glad in His works; 104:32 He looks at the earth, and it trembles; He touches the mountains, and they smoke. 104:33 I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being. 104:34 Let my meditation be pleasing to Him; As for me, I shall be glad in the Lord. 104:35 Let sinners be consumed from the earth And let the wicked be no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul. Praise the Lord!

If we consider the NT (Apostolic Writings) connection, ruach as a reference to the neshamah, the divine soul, David is speaking of the Lord setting on fire this aspect of man, his divine soul, that part that has come from God, as His ministers. This is related to a distinctive change at the center of a persons life that is connected to one\u2019s relationship with God. A parallel thought may be found in the act of obedience to the command as it is related to sin, Teshuvah (Repentance), and the Mikvah (baptism). The Mikvah was a physical demonstration of a believers faith to turn his life over to the Lord, of his death to sin, and his returning to the way, the commands of God to walk in newness of life. This is the testimony of each believer, to be changed by God in a unique way and to live a life that has overcome sin by the power of God. These things appear to be related to the New Covenant that we have in the Messiah, as Yohanan HaMatbil (John the Baptist) said in <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Matthew 3:11, Mark 1:8, and Luke 3:16.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1 CharOverride-14\">Matthew 3:11<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">3:11 \u201cAs for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.\u201d (NASB)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1 CharOverride-14\">Mark 1:8<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">1:8 \u201cI baptized you with water; but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.\u201d (NASB)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1 CharOverride-14\">Luke 3:16<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">3:16 John answered and said to them all, \u201cAs for me, I baptize you with water; but One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to untie the thong of His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

a garment; and the waters split on the mountains, and endure. 104:7 At your rebuke, they will flee, flowing down; at the sound of your shout, they will be frightened, pouring themselves out. 104:8 They will go up from the abyss to the mountains, and descend to the valleys, to this place that you founded for them. 104:9 You have placed a boundary for the waves of the sea that they will not cross, lest they return to cover the earth. 104:10 Who releases springs into rivers; they flow between the mountains. 104:11 They water all the wild animals; the asses will break their thirst. 104:12 The birds of heaven will settle on them; they will give out a sound of singing from among the branches. 104:13 Who waters the mountains from his upper treasury; the earth will be satisfied with the fruit of your deeds. 104:14 Who makes grass grow for beasts, and herbs for the cultivation of the son of man, that bread may come forth from the earth; 104:15 And wine that gladdens the heart of the son of man, to make the face shine by oil; and bread will support the heart of the son of man. 104:16 The trees that the Lord created are satisfied, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted: 104:17 Where the birds make nests; the stork\u2019s dwelling is in the cypresses. 104:18 The high mountains are for the wild goats; the rocks are security for the conies. 104:19 He made the moon to calculate times by; the sun knows the time of his setting. 104:20 You will make darkness and it will be night; in it all the beasts of the forest creep about. 104:21 The offspring of lions roar to find food, and to seek their sustenance from God. 104:22 The sun will shine, they gather together; and they lay down in their dwelling place. 104:23 A son of man will go forth to his work and to his cultivation, until the sunset of evening. 104:24 How many are your works, O Lord! You have made all of them in wisdom; the earth is full of your possessions.

104:7-9,<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> David states that the waters stood above the mountains which sounds like a reference to the flood. David says at the rebuke of the Lord the waters fled, the mountains rose, and the valleys sank down to the place established for them. This sounds a lot like plate tectonics. Plate tectonics is a scientific theory describing the large-scale motion of 7 large plates and the movements of a larger number of smaller plates of the Earth\u2019s lithosphere. The theoretical model builds on the concept of continental drift developed during the first few decades of the 20th century. The geo-scientific community accepted plate-tectonic theory after sea-floor spreading was validated in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Some believe the plate movement occurred very rapidly over a short period of time when the earth was covered with water, and was the mechanism for the <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201creceding\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> of the waters and the lifting of the continents following Noah\u2019s flood. The relative movement of the plates today typically ranges from zero to 100 mm annually. The psalmist\u2019s descriptions of the mountains raising and the valleys sinking are amazing, and are something that has been validated by observable science according to the plate tectonic theory and continental drift. God\u2019s Word is very reliable!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> David continues describing the creation saying, the Lord covers the deep with a garment (104:6), He rebukes the waters and they flee (104:7), the mountains rose (104:8), and the Lord set the boundary of the earth (104:9). It is the Lord who sends forth rains and springs (104:10), and He sustains beasts (104:11), birds (104:12), and man with the vegetation of the earth (104:14). In this way it is the Lord who produces wine making man\u2019s heart glad (104:15), he feeds and waters the trees (104:16), and provides a place for the birds to roost (104:17), and for the wild goats to dwell (104:18). The Lord made the sun and moon for seasons (104:19), and night time for the predators to seek their prey (104:21). The Lord provides all of these things so man may go out to work (104:23), and may recognize how the Lord is awesome and wise (104:24). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> David then proceeds concluding in his psalm with the reasons why the Lord is to be praised saying the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-6\"><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font CharOverride-6\">Masoretic Text<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Hebrew-Paragraph-Style--Right-to-Left- ParaOverride-5\" lang=\"he-IL\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1 CharOverride-14\" lang=\"en-US\">Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:31-35<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">104:31 Let the glory of the Lord endure forever; Let the Lord be glad in His works; 104:32 He looks at the earth, and it trembles; He touches the mountains, and they smoke. 104:33 I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being. 104:34 Let my meditation be pleasing to Him; As for me, I shall be glad in the Lord. 104:35 Let sinners be consumed from the earth And let the wicked be no more.

This is consistent with the rabbinic thought in the sense of the head of man being exalted. The Midrash continues saying the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Rabbi Huna asked, Who is referred to by the head? You find that all things offer praise to the Holy One blessed be He, as is From the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof the Lord\u2019s name is praised (Tehillim \/ Psalms 113:3), yet to the Holy One blessed be He, no praise means more than the praise offered by Israel, The people which I formed for Myself, that they might tell of My praise (Isaiah 43:21). This you can see for yourself from the preceding Psalm, where it is written Bless the Lord, you angels of His, you mighty in strength, that do His word, listening unto the voice of His word (Tehillim \/ Psalms 103:20). One would expect the verse to put listening unto the voice of His word before that do His word, for ordinarily a man must first listen to word of what he is to do before he does it. Why, then, does the verse read this way? Because it is speaking of the people of Israel who stood at Sinai, willing to do the will of God even before listening to word of what they were to do, for they said, All that the Lord had spoken we will do, and then listen (Shemot \/ Exodus 24:7). After Israel offer praise, the angels follow them in offering praise, as is evident from the next verse in the Psalm, Bless the Lord, all you His hosts (Tehillim \/ Psalms 103:21), these being the angels, of whom it is said, The Lord will punish the host of the high heaven on high (Isaiah 24:21). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"CharOverride-15\">Notice how the exalting is paralleled to listening and obeying God\u2019s Word. The rabbis speak of the willingness of God\u2019s people to obey the Lord before even having heard the word spoken.

This is <\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\">connected to the kind of people the Lord wants us to be, humble, prayerful, righteous, holy, and to live with justice, mercy, and truth, and it is by these things that we are exalted, because it is in these things that we give the Lord praise!

In further exposition of Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, You are very great (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:1), Rabbi Berechiah said in the name of Rabbi Eleazar and also in the name of Rabbi Joshua, You were great in the world before the world was created. But after You created Your world, it is written, You are very great. You were great before the children of Israel went forth out of Egypt. But after they went forth out of Egypt, it is written, You are very great. You were great before the Prophets offered praise to You. But after the Prophets offered praise to You, it is written You are very great. You are clothed with glory and majesty. Rabbi Simeon son of Jehozadak interrogated Rabbi Samuel son of Nahmani saying, How did the Holy One blessed be He, create the light? Rabbi Samuel son of Nahmani replied, God covered Himself with a white garment and suffused the world with His light. But since Rabbi Samuel son of Nahmani gave his reply in a wisper, Rabbi Simeon son of Jehozadak pressed him further, Os this not said outspokenly in the verse, Who covered Yourself with light as with a garment (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:2)? Thereupon, Rabbi Samuel son of Nahmani said to him, As in a whisper I received this tradition, so in a whisper I answered you. Rabbi Berechiah said, Had I not heard that Rabbi Isaac expounded this verse in public, I, too, would not expound it in public. And whence did the Holy One blessed be He, diffuse the light? Rabbi Berechiah said in the name of Rabbi Isaac, God diffused it from the Holy Temple, as is said, And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east, and the earth\u2019s light came from His glory (Ezekiel 43:2).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The rabbis say before the creation the Lord was <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05d5\u05dc<\/span> (great) and following having performed the creation the Lord was <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05dc\u05ea \u05de\u05d0\u05d3<\/span> (very great). This description of God\u2019s greatness continues, with the going out of Israel from Egypt, saying the Lord was <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05d5\u05dc<\/span> (great) prior to Israel going out, and following having performed their deliverance, the Lord was <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e0\u05ea\u05d2\u05d3\u05dc\u05ea \u05de\u05d0\u05d3<\/span> (very great). The same is said of the prophets giving praise, the Lord was great before, and after the prophets gave praise, the Lord was very great (<span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05dc\u05ea \u05de\u05d0\u05d3<\/span>). This concept of the <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cfoundation of the world\u201d<\/span> is frequently mentioned in the Scriptures, and we are given this concept in the phrase <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e0\u05d1\u05e8\u05d0 \u05d4\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc\u05dd \u05d4\u05d9\u05d9\u05ea<\/span> (before the world existed). This is the point in time at which human history begins (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Matthew 13:35, 25:34, Luke 11:50, Hebrews 4:3, 9:26, Revelation 13:8, 17:8<\/span>) but yet the Lord knew those who were His, by the reference to those whose names were found written in the book of life <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e0\u05d1\u05e8\u05d0 \u05d4\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc\u05dd \u05d4\u05d9\u05d9\u05ea<\/span> (before the world existed). These Scriptures speak of the preexistence of God which incorporated His Chesed (<span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d7\u05e1\u05d3<\/span>, mercy and grace) and that the Lord God of Israel was pleased to create the world and in His love and foreknowledge, he purposed His promise of eternal life to those who seek and love Him. The plans of the infinite love of God were formulated <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e0\u05d1\u05e8\u05d0 \u05d4\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc\u05dd \u05d4\u05d9\u05d9\u05ea<\/span> (before the world existed). The counsels of the grace of God were in existence before the creation the Lord was <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05d5\u05dc<\/span> (great) and following having performed the creation the Lord was <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05dc\u05ea \u05de\u05d0\u05d3<\/span> (very great) by the bringing of His plans to action. These things are further illustrated by the rabbis discussion on the creation of light. <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cRabbi Simeon son of Jehozadak interrogated Rabbi Samuel son of Nahmani saying, How did the Holy One blessed be He, create the light?\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> The response was that the Lord created the light by wrapping himself in a white garment. Note, in the biblical context, the light and white are paralleled to righteousness and holiness. So, the conclusion may be that in the beginning, <\/span><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e0\u05d1\u05e8\u05d0 \u05d4\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc\u05dd \u05d4\u05d9\u05d9\u05ea<\/span> (before the world existed), the Lord said, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Bereshit \/ Genesis 1:3<\/span> <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05b9\u05d0\u05de\u05b6\u05e8 \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9-\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9-\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8:<\/span> <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">1:3 &#8230; \u2018Let there be light\u2019; and there was light.

The reason the light in the beginning was the shekhina glory of God in the creation account, is due to the sun, moon, and stars being created at a much later time. The Lord God Almighty is the only source of light prior to the creation of these other things.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">Midrash Tehillim 104, Part 4 concludes saying, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cRabbi Berechiah said in the name of Rabbi Isaac, God diffused it from the Holy Temple, as is said, And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east, and the earth\u2019s light came from His glory (Ezekiel 43:2).\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> The conclusion of the Midrash is that the Lord was establishing His ways prior to all of creation, beginning with the light of His glory shining forth as the rabbis say being diffused from the Holy Temple. The Jewish Encyclopedia speaks of similar related things in regard to the preexistence of the Messiah saying:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Two Biblical passages favor the view of the preexistence of the Messiah: Micah v. 1 (A. V. 2), speaking of the Bethlehemite ruler, says that his \u201cgoings forth have been from of old, from everlasting\u201d; Dan. vii. 13 speaks of \u201cone like the Son of man,\u201d who \u201ccame with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days.\u201d In the Messianic similitudes of Enoch (xxxvii.-lxxi.) the three preexistences are spoken of: \u201cThe Messiah was chosen of God before the creation of the world, and he shall be before Him to eternity\u201d (xlviii. 6). Before the sun and the signs of the zodiac were created, or ever the stars of heaven were formed his name was uttered in the presence of the Lord of Spirits (= God; xlviii. 3). Apart from these passages, there are only general statements that the Messiah was hidden and preserved by God (lxii. 6-7, xlvi. 1-3), without any declaration as to when he began to be. His preexistence is affirmed also in II Esdras (about 90 C.E.), According to which he has been preserved and hidden by God \u201ca great season\u201d; nor shall mankind see him save at the hour of his appointed day (xii. 32; xiii. 26, 52; xiv. 9), although no mention is made of the antemundane existence either of his person or of his name (comp. Syriac Apoc. Baruch, xxix. 3).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Thus also the Rabbis. Of the seven things fashioned before the creation of the world, the last was the name of the Messiah (comp. Ps. lxxii. 17; Pes. 54a; Tan., Naso, ed. Buber, No. 19; and parallels); and the Targum regards the preexistence of the Messiah\u2019s name as implied in Micah v. 1 (A. V. 2), Zech. iv. 7, and Ps. lxxii. 17. (Jewish Encyclopedia)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\">There are many examples of <\/span>the Lord being <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05d5\u05dc<\/span> (great) and following having performed the work of His hand, the Lord was <span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d2\u05d3\u05dc\u05ea \u05de\u05d0\u05d3<\/span> (very great).

The Midrash describes this in the form of the nations behaving as birds of prey, circling, and waiting for the proper moment to fall upon its prey. When we think of the nations in regards to having the desire to lead God\u2019s people away from His instructions, we generally think in terms of the nations gods as opposed to the One true God in heaven. When the Torah speaks of the gods of the nations, there are several common characteristics of the gods that can be observed. First, the <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cgods\u201d<\/span> of the nations are the object of man\u2019s worship and service. Whenever someone is working in service to their god, they are doing so visibly and the natural consequence is someone notices. When a person worships their god through service, there is a certain authority and claim this god has over men, in which men acknowledge by their worship and service of the one they are bound to. The strength of this authority and claim over men is seen by the price which men are willing to pay in order to worship their gods. In the biblical context, taken from the history of Israel, pagans have actually offer their children as sacrifices to the gods (molech, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">2 Kings 16:12<\/span>). Within this context, the value or price attributed to serving these gods is therefore extremely high. The gods are worshiped for practical reasons, for example, the gods are not worshiped for their intrinsic beauty or goodness, but for what they control. In Greek mythology, the hostile, capricious gods are worshiped to appease their anger and to avert the outpouring of their wrath. Others are worshiped largely due to the powers which they possess and the benefits which they produce to the worshiper. These gods are essentially viewed by their subjects as a means to a desired end. (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">i.e. what can I get out of worshiping this god, etc.<\/span>). So there is a selfish act that is involved in the motivation to worship a false god, to become joined with the worship and service of the god in order to manipulate the god to do one\u2019s bidding. This is the reason the worship of false gods is called harlotry in the Tanach. Note how our relationship with the Lord God of Israel is one of a marriage relationship, therefore, the relationship between men and the gods is closely akin to prostitution. In the example given above on the worship of Molech, a price is paid (sacrificed child) and a service is rendered, but there is certainly no love between the two parties. In addition, the gods of the nations are seldom worshiped alone, but are generally worshiped in a plurality. Pagan worship almost always involves a plurality of gods where more than one god is assumed to be at work. This may be illustrated from the Neviim (Prophets) where the Philistines assumed Israel was delivered from the Egyptians by her gods (plural, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">1 Samuel 4:8<\/span>), rather than by her God (singular). The pagan conclusion of the plurality of gods is that each god is limited in its power and function, a different god must be served and worshiped for each desired end. Worship becomes a matter of covetousness as opposed to love. (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">i.e. A god of war must be worshiped for military might; a fertility god was served to produce offspring; and the list may go on.<\/span>) As a result of these things, the pagan was always inclined to be on the lookout for a new god, who would produce even further benefits (Consider the Apostle Paul and what he found in <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Acts 17:23 \u2018For while I was passing through and examining the objects of your worship, I also found an altar with this inscription, \u2018TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.\u2019 Therefore what you worship in ignorance, this I proclaim to you. NASB<\/span>). As a result of these things, the mentality of the pagan and the nature of their worship and service to their gods, they seek to cause God\u2019s children to have doubt about the Lord God in heaven, and see <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cto<\/span><span class=\"CharOverride-19\"> make them forsake the Holy One blessed be He.<\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> The entire midrash states the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<table id=\"table007\" class=\"Basic-Table\">\n<colgroup>\n<col class=\"_idGenTableRowColumn-14\" \/>\n<col class=\"_idGenTableRowColumn-15\" \/> <\/colgroup>\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"Basic-Table _idGenTableRowColumn-16\">\n<td class=\"Basic-Table CellOverride-7\">\n<p class=\"Hebrew-Paragraph-Style--Right-to-Left-\" lang=\"he-IL\"><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text CharOverride-7\">\u05de\u05d3\u05e8\u05e9 \u05ea\u05d4\u05dc\u05d9\u05dd \u05e4\u05e8\u05e7 \u05e7\u05d3 \u05e1\u05d9\u05de\u05df \u05d9<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Hebrew-Paragraph-Style--Right-to-Left-\" lang=\"he-IL\"><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\">\u05d9 \u05d3\u05d1\u05e8 \u05d0\u05d7\u05e8 \u05e2\u05dc\u05d9\u05d4\u05dd \u05e2\u05d5\u05e3 \u05d4\u05e9\u05de\u05d9\u05dd \u05d9\u05e9\u05db\u05d5\u05df. \u05d0\u05dc\u05d5 \u05d0\u05d5\u05de\u05d5\u05ea \u05d4\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc\u05dd \u05e9\u05d4\u05df \u05de\u05ea\u05db\u05e0\u05e1\u05d9\u05df \u05e2\u05dc \u05d9\u05e9\u05e8\u05d0\u05dc \u05d5\u05de\u05e2\u05d1\u05d9\u05d3\u05d9\u05dd \u05d1\u05d4\u05dd \u05dc\u05d4\u05e8\u05d7\u05d9\u05e7\u05dd \u05de\u05df \u05d4\u05e7\u05d1\u05f4\u05d4, \u05d0\u05e2\u05e4\u05f4\u05db \u05d0\u05d9\u05e0\u05df \u05de\u05e0\u05d9\u05d7\u05d9\u05df \u05d0\u05d5\u05ea\u05d5, \u05e9\u05e0\u05d0\u05de\u05e8 \u05de\u05d1\u05d9\u05df \u05e2\u05e4\u05d0\u05d9\u05dd \u05d9\u05ea\u05e0\u05d5 \u05e7\u05d5\u05dc, \u05e9\u05de\u05d9\u05d9\u05d7\u05d3\u05d9\u05dd \u05e9\u05de\u05d5 \u05e9\u05dc \u05d4\u05e7\u05d1\u05f4\u05d4 \u05e4\u05e2\u05de\u05d9\u05dd \u05d1\u05d9\u05d5\u05dd, \u05d5\u05d0\u05d5\u05de\u05e8\u05d9\u05dd \u05e9\u05de\u05e2 \u05d9\u05e9\u05e8\u05d0\u05dc \u05d4\u05f3 \u05d0\u05dc\u05d4\u05d9\u05e0\u05d5 \u05d4\u05f3 \u05d0\u05d7\u05d3 (\u05d3\u05d1\u05e8\u05d9\u05dd \u05d5 \u05d3)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"Basic-Table CellOverride-7\">\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1 CharOverride-14\">Midrash Tehillim 104, Part 10<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">10. In a different exposition, the verse is read, Upon them the fowl of the heaven make their habitation (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:12) that is, heathen nations of the earth, like birds of prey, gather against the children of Israel and work upon them, trying to make them forsake the Holy One blessed be He. Nevertheless, the children of Israel do not forsake God, as is said, From among the weary ones they give voice to a song, that is, twice daily the children of Israel voice the unity of the Holy One blessed be He, saying, Hear, O Lord, The Lord our God, the Lord is One (Devarim \/ Deuteronomy 6:4).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The gods of the nations are man made, and as a result, these gods are fashioned into idols. An idol is a representation of a particular god and used as a focal point for worship. The idol in some cases represent the god itself (as in Greek mythology), or may represent some symbolic attribute of characteristic of the god, or the power over which the god has control of, for example, the bull was used symbolically to represent the strength of a god.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">As a result of the neighboring nations influences, these pagan idols were misused in the sense that they represented pagan gods (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Isaiah 42:17<\/span>) and were later taken and applied to represent the God of Israel (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Shemot \/ Exodus 32:1-8 and 1 Kings 12:28<\/span>). These idols were used as a place and presence of their god, a place of power. Note how the Ark of the Covenant was placed in the temple of Dagon (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">1 Samuel 5:2<\/span>) because they attributed their victory over Israel to their god Dagon and placed the spoils, the Ark of the Covenant, before and in the presence of their god. The Scriptures state that all the gods of the peoples are idols, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cBut the Lord made the heavens\u201d<\/span> (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">1 Chronicles 16:26, Tehillim \/ Psalm 96:5<\/span>). As the idol was made to represent the gods of the nations and became an object of worship of their god itself (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Isaiah 42:17<\/span>), and so these idols become a place of power for unleashing the power of their gods. Note that this idea of an object of worship having the ability to release the power of God was even practiced by Israel, in the use of the Ark of the Covenant being taken to war as an instrument, which would assure the Israelites of military victory (see <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">1 Samuel 4:3 and 2 Kings 18:4<\/span>). Because of her sins however victory was not won, the Lord allowed the Philistines to overpower and subdue Israel for the purpose of drawing her back to the Lord and His ways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The Lord God of Israel however is awesome and powerful, and nothing a man can make will do justice in reflecting God\u2019s perfection in righteousness and holiness. All of creation reflects the power of God (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Romans 1:20<\/span>) where the Lord God of Israel revealed Himself to men through His word (Torah) and through his actions (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">i.e. the exodus from Egypt, etc<\/span>). The commandments were given in order to provide instruction on how we are to serve the Lord God of Israel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1 CharOverride-14\">Devarim \/ Deuteronomy 4:10-23<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">4:10 \u2018Remember the day you stood before the Lord your God at Horeb, when the Lord said to me, \u2018Assemble the people to Me, that I may let them hear My words so they may learn to fear Me all the days they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children.\u2019 4:11 \u2018You came near and stood at the foot of the mountain, and the mountain burned with fire to the very heart of the heavens: darkness, cloud and thick gloom. 4:12 \u2018Then the Lord spoke to you from the midst of the fire; you heard the sound of words, but you saw no form only a voice. 4:13 \u2018So He declared to you His covenant which He commanded you to perform, that is, the Ten Commandments; and He wrote them on two tablets of stone. 4:14 \u2018The Lord commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that you might perform them in the land where you are going over to possess it. 4:15 \u2018So watch yourselves carefully, since you did not see any form on the day the Lord spoke to you at Horeb from the midst of the fire, 4:16 so that you do not act corruptly and make a graven image for yourselves in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female, 4:17 the likeness of any animal that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the sky, 4:18 the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water below the earth. 4:19 \u2018And beware not to lift up your eyes to heaven and see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, and be drawn away and worship them and serve them, those which the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven. 4:20 \u2018But the Lord has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, from Egypt, to be a people for His own possession, as today. 4:21 \u2018Now the Lord was angry with me on your account, and swore that I would not cross the Jordan, and that I would not enter the good land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance. 4:22 \u2018For I will die in this land, I shall not cross the Jordan, but you shall cross and take possession of this good land. 4:23 \u2018So watch yourselves, that you do not forget the covenant of the Lord your God which He made with you, and make for yourselves a graven image in the form of anything against which the Lord your God has commanded you. (NASB)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The Torah states that the Lord spoke from the midst of the fire and Israel heard the sound of words, but saw no form, only a voice. It is for this reason we are commanded to watch ourselves carefully, because Israel did not see any form on the day the Lord spoke at Horeb from the midst of the fire, so that we do not act corruptly and make, worship, and serve a graven image. These instructions are as valid for us today as they were back in the giving of the Torah.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The real issue, then, between false gods and the one true God is related to whom do we trust? To believe God alone is trustworthy leads to worshiping and serving Him only. To believe that God is inadequate and untrustworthy is to turn to other <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cgods\u201d <\/span>which will do those things we think God cannot do. For example, in many instances, we are trusting more in our money than we trust in our God. (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">i.e. As long as we have a nest egg in the bank we feel secure.<\/span>) The evil here is not in having money, but in trusting in money, rather than in God (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">1 Timothy 6:17<\/span>). Yeshua said that it is possible to serve money rather than God (<span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Matthew 6:24<\/span>).<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">Midrash Tehillim 104, Part 10 concludes saying, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201c&#8230; the Holy One blessed be He, saying, Hear, O Lord, The Lord our God, the Lord is One (Devarim \/ Deuteronomy 6:4).\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> Notice the imperative and definitiveness of declaring the Lord is One in the Shema and the necessity of having faith in the Lord God of Israel as One! In the American culture, the number one god that is trusted in is in the <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\"> \u201cgod of our inner, hidden, abilities\u201d <\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> of in other words, <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cthe god of self.\u201d<\/span> Others may trust in education, or in one\u2019s position, or in technology. Whatever we place our trust in besides the Lord God of Israel and His Messiah Yeshua is idolatry. We cannot trust these things and the Lord God of Israel at the same time. The Midrash states <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cNevertheless, the children of Israel do not forsake God, as is said, From among the weary ones they give voice to a song.\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> Pray that we are not deceived and we trust completely and without doubt in the power of God to deliver us and to provide for our needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> Midrash Tehillim 104, Part 18 opens with the Dibur Hamathil (<\/span><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05d3\u05d9\u05d1\u05d5\u05e8 \u05d4\u05de\u05ea\u05d7\u05d9\u05dc<\/span>) saying, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cThe sun arises, they slink away (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:22)&#8230;\u201d<\/span> The homiletic introduction to the midrash states, <span class=\"CharOverride-19\">\u201cWhen the sun of the king Messiah rises, heathen nations of the earth will slink away, and couch in their dens.<\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201d<\/span> The entire midrash states the following:<\/p>\n<table id=\"table008\" class=\"Basic-Table\">\n<colgroup>\n<col class=\"_idGenTableRowColumn-17\" \/>\n<col class=\"_idGenTableRowColumn-18\" \/> <\/colgroup>\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"Basic-Table _idGenTableRowColumn-19\">\n<td class=\"Basic-Table CellOverride-7\">\n<p class=\"Hebrew-Paragraph-Style--Right-to-Left-\" lang=\"he-IL\"><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text CharOverride-7\">\u05de\u05d3\u05e8\u05e9 \u05ea\u05d4\u05dc\u05d9\u05dd \u05e4\u05e8\u05e7 \u05e7\u05d3 \u05e1\u05d9\u05de\u05df \u05d9\u05d7<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Hebrew-Paragraph-Style--Right-to-Left-\" lang=\"he-IL\"><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\">\u05d9\u05d7 \u05ea\u05d6\u05e8\u05d7 \u05d4\u05e9\u05de\u05e9 \u05d9\u05d0\u05e1\u05e4\u05d5\u05df. \u05db\u05e9\u05ea\u05d6\u05e8\u05d7 \u05e9\u05de\u05e9\u05d5 \u05e9\u05dc \u05de\u05dc\u05da \u05d4\u05de\u05e9\u05d9\u05d7 \u05d9\u05d0\u05e1\u05e4\u05d5\u05df \u05d0\u05d5\u05de\u05d5\u05ea \u05d4\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc\u05dd, \u05d5\u05d0\u05dc \u05de\u05e2\u05d5\u05e0\u05ea\u05dd \u05d9\u05e8\u05d1\u05e6\u05d5\u05df, \u05d5\u05dc\u05d4\u05d9\u05db\u05df \u05d4\u05dd \u05d4\u05d5\u05dc\u05db\u05d9\u05dd, \u05dc\u05d2\u05d9\u05d4\u05e0\u05dd. \u05d9\u05e6\u05d0 \u05d0\u05d3\u05dd \u05dc\u05e4\u05e2\u05dc\u05d5 \u05d5\u05dc\u05e2\u05d1\u05d5\u05d3\u05ea\u05d5 \u05e2\u05d3\u05d9 \u05e2\u05e8\u05d1. \u05d0\u05de\u05e8 \u05e8\u05f3 \u05d0\u05e1\u05d9 \u05d0\u05dc\u05d5 \u05d1\u05e0\u05d9 \u05d0\u05d3\u05dd \u05e9\u05de\u05ea\u05e2\u05e1\u05e7\u05d9\u05df \u05d1\u05ea\u05d5\u05e8\u05d4 \u05de\u05e2\u05e8\u05d1 \u05e2\u05d3 \u05d1\u05d5\u05e7\u05e8, \u05e9\u05d4\u05df \u05e2\u05ea\u05d9\u05d3\u05d9\u05df \u05dc\u05e7\u05d1\u05dc \u05e9\u05db\u05e8\u05df. \u05d3\u05f4\u05d0 \u05d9\u05e6\u05d0 \u05d0\u05d3\u05dd \u05dc\u05e4\u05e2\u05dc\u05d5 \u05d5\u05dc\u05e2\u05d1\u05d5\u05d3\u05ea\u05d5 \u05e2\u05d3\u05d9 \u05e2\u05e8\u05d1. \u05d0\u05de\u05e8 \u05e8\u05f3 \u05d0\u05d1\u05d4\u05d5 \u05d1\u05e9\u05dd \u05e8\u05f3 \u05e9\u05de\u05e2\u05d5\u05df \u05d1\u05df \u05dc\u05e7\u05d9\u05e9 \u05db\u05da \u05d3\u05e8\u05e9\u05d5 \u05d7\u05db\u05de\u05d9\u05dd \u05e9\u05ea\u05d4\u05d0 \u05d4\u05d9\u05e6\u05d9\u05d0\u05d4 \u05e9\u05dc \u05d1\u05e2\u05dc \u05d4\u05d1\u05d9\u05ea, \u05d5\u05d4\u05db\u05e0\u05e1\u05d4 \u05e9\u05dc \u05e4\u05d5\u05e2\u05dc, \u05d5\u05e6\u05e8\u05d9\u05da \u05dc\u05d5 \u05d4\u05e4\u05d5\u05e2\u05dc \u05e9\u05ea\u05d6\u05e8\u05d7 \u05dc\u05d5 \u05d4\u05e9\u05de\u05e9 \u05d1\u05de\u05dc\u05d0\u05db\u05ea\u05d5, \u05d5\u05e6\u05e8\u05d9\u05da \u05d1\u05e2\u05dc \u05d4\u05d1\u05d9\u05ea \u05e9\u05d9\u05d4\u05d0 \u05de\u05e9\u05e7\u05d9\u05e2\u05ea \u05d4\u05d7\u05de\u05d4 \u05d4\u05e4\u05d5\u05e2\u05dc \u05d1\u05d1\u05d9\u05ea\u05d5.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"Basic-Table CellOverride-7\">\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1 CharOverride-14\">Midrash Tehillim 104, Part 18<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">18. The sun arises, they slink away (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:22), When the sun of the king Messiah rises, heathen nations of the earth will slink away, and couch in their dens. Whither will they go? To Gehenna. Man comes to his reward when he is at his labor all through the evening (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:23). According to Rabbi Asi, such men as occupy themselves with Torah from evening until morning are men who will come to have their reward. In another comment, the verse is read, The sun raises, Man goes forth to his work and is at his labor until evening. Rabbi Abbahu said in the name of Rabbi Simeon son of Lakish that the Sages interpreted the verse as follows, The going forth of the worker to the place of his work is on the employer\u2019s time; but the return of the worker to his house is on his own time. Also, the worker must be at the place of his work when the sun rises, and the employer must see to it that the worker return to his house when the sun sets.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The rabbinic opinion on the actions of the Messiah are to cause the heathen nations to slink away, and this occurs by his coming in the righteousness of God and having the ability to judge by the power of God and His righteousness. Note the Midrash states, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cWhither will they go? To Gehenna. Man comes to his reward when he is at his labor all through the evening (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:23).\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> According to <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Isaiah 11:4, <\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\">the Messiah will come to destroy the wicked. The midrash uses the word shamash (<\/span><span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e9\u05de\u05e9<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\">) as a reference to the righteous servant and to the light of the sun which again parallels the light of the day to righteousness, as opposed to the darkness of the night and unrighteousness. The Midrash states that when the Messiah comes, the nations will fear him. The concepts here to the day, the light of the sun, is a reference to the righteousness of God which the Messiah will bring as judgment upon the wicked (<\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Isaiah 66:15 , Matthew 25:31, 2 Thessalonians 1:8<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\">). When the Messiah comes, he will bring with him the reward of God. The reward for the wicked is to descend into Gehenna (Hell). Rabbi Asi says, <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201csuch men as occupy themselves with Torah from evening until morning are men who will come to have their reward.\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> The commentary on Pirkei Avot in R Yaakov Emden\u2019s sidur Bes Yaakov says: <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cIt\u2019s known that at the time of the [messianic] redemption is a revelation of Torah acquisition, for \u2018the land will be filled with knowledge\u2019. Because [redemption] causes a revelation of Torah knowledge, it is indeed among the forty-eight things through which Torah is acquired.\u201d <\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\">This emphasizes the importance of occupying one\u2019s self with the study of God\u2019s Word as it is connected to the Messiah, according to the Midrash and the commentary on Pirkei Avot. How important is studying God\u2019s Word for you today?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The last half of Midrash Tehillim 104, Part 18 concludes saying, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cThe sun raises, Man goes forth to his work and is at his labor until evening. Rabbi Abbahu said in the name of Rabbi Simeon son of Lakish that the Sages interpreted the verse as follows, The going forth of the worker to the place of his work is on the employer\u2019s time; but the return of the worker to his house is on his own time. Also, the worker must be at the place of his work when the sun rises, and the employer must see to it that the worker return to his house when the sun sets.\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> The Midrash places a contrast between the employer\u2019s time as opposed to the worker\u2019s time. The idea here is related to the study of the Torah, and being about God\u2019s work and to the reward of the righteous. Those who study during the day, are doing what they should, meaning that when the sun rises, we should be at our place of work, doing what the Lord wants us to do.

Another exposition, Yonder sea, great and wide is Gehenna, of which is said, Therefore hell has made greater her desire (Isaiah 5:14). Therein are creeping things innumerable, wicked men, sectarians, and infidels. Beings small and great, The small and great are there alike; and the servant is free from his master (Job 3:19). There go the ships (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:26), Man goes to his long home and the mourners go about the streets (Ecclesiastes 12:5). But He who unites himself with this, him You have formed to sport with, this being righteousness which accompanies him. All of them wait for You (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:27) that is, the dead wait, their eyes hanging upon the Resurrection. Now, of the Resurrection it is written, The inhabitants of the rock will sing, they will shout from the top of the mountains. They will give glory unto the Lord (Isaiah 42:11-12). In this Psalm also it is written, The glory of the Lord will endure forever (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:31). Therefore, as glory in the one verse refers to the Resurrection, so in the other, glory refers to the Resurrection. At that time the dead will sing a song to You. Of this it is written, Sing unto the Lord a new song (Isaiah 42:10). In another comment on There goes the ships (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:26), Rabbi Isaac son of Maryon said, Were it not written, Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters (Isaiah 43:16), any man that went upon the sea would die. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">It is interesting how the rabbis speak of Hell (Gehenna) making its place wide for the purpose of the inclusion of those who dwell there.

And the mountains quaked, and their corpses lay like refuse in the middle of the streets. For all this His anger is not spent, But His hand is still stretched out. (NASB)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">Note how this place (<span class=\"Hebrew-verse-text CharOverride-7\" lang=\"he-IL\">\u05e9\u05bc\u05c1\u05b0\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05dc<\/span>, Gehenna, or Hell) is described as containing <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201ccreeping things innumerable, wicked men, sectarians, and infidels.\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> A place for the wicked, and being irrespective of one who was small or great in this world, all who are wicked will go there. It is important to consider the description of Sheol(the grave) because Isaiah is referencing something different than a simple place as the grave where both the righteous and the unrighteous go after death. <\/span><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Isaiah 14:9<\/span> emphasizes his words saying, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cSheol from beneath is excited over you to meet you when you come; It arouses for you the spirits of the dead, all the leaders of the earth; It raises all the kings of the nations from their thrones.\u201d<\/span> The grave (Sheol) that is being described here is referring to hell, which is excited over the wicked and has a hunger, as <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">Isaiah 5:14<\/span> states <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cDeath has expanded its jaws\u201d<\/span> (NIV) which seems to parallel the snake (python) which has the ability to dislocate its jaws in order to get its mouth around its prey and swallow it whole. Understanding this context is important because there are some who say Hell does not exist. However, the Scriptures do indicate this place of torment does in fact exist. Note the slow process of digestion once the snake has its prey in its belly, which is paralleled to Gehenna (Hell) here in the Midrash. This is what unrighteousness is like, it takes a person unaware slowly to his or her final destination of destruction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">The Midrash continues with the righteous looking forward to the resurrection.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph ParaOverride-4\"><span class=\"Character-Style-1\">But He who unites himself with this, him You have formed to sport with, this being righteousness which accompanies him. All of them wait for You (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:27) that is, the dead wait, their eyes hanging upon the Resurrection. Now, of the Resurrection it is written, The inhabitants of the rock will sing, they will shout from the top of the mountains. They will give glory unto the Lord (Isaiah 42:11-12). In this Psalm also it is written, The glory of the Lord will endure forever (Tehillim \/ Psalms 104:31). Therefore, as glory in the one verse refers to the Resurrection, so in the other, glory refers to the Resurrection. At that time the dead will sing a song to You. Of this it is written, Sing unto the Lord a new song (Isaiah 42:10). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">This connects us back to those who study God\u2019s Word, and take the Word of the Lord seriously enough to put it into practice. The Mishnah Pirkei Avot 2:3 states <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cRabbi Chananiah ben Teradion said: If two sit together and no words of Torah are interchanged between them, theirs is the session of the scornful, as it is written (Psalm 1:1): \u201cNor sit in the seat of scoffers.\u201d But when two sit together and words of Torah pass between them, the Divine Presence rests between them, as it is written (Malachi 3:16) \u201cThen those who revered the Lord spoke with one another. The Lord took note and listened, and a book of remembrance was written before him of those who revered the Lord and thought on his name.\u201d Scripture speaks here of two. Whence do we learn that if even one sits and occupies himself in the Torah, the Holy One blessed be he, appoints him a reward? Because it is written (Lamentations 3:28): \u2018to sit alone in silence when the Lord has imposed it.\u2019\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> This is significant in the sense that the Lord is present in the lives of those who take His Words seriously, and put them into practice. Those who put God\u2019s word into practice truly believe in His Word. These are who look forward to the resurrection. What do you think is going to happen to those who follow the grace movement who do not believe in the significance of living for the Lord in righteousness, justice, and truth?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph\">Midrash Tehillim 104, Part 23 concludes saying, <span class=\"Character-Style-1\">\u201cRabbi Isaac son of Maryon said, Were it not written, Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters (Isaiah 43:16), any man that went upon the sea would die.\u201d<\/span><span class=\"Std-Hebrew-English-Greek-Font\"> The way of the sea and turbulent waters is said to be a path to destruction. The Lord however is able to make a way for His people to pass through. This world is filled with wickedness, the Grave (Sheol), Hell, Death, and is more than willing to swallow us up. However, the Lord God Almighty, the God of Israel has provided us with a way to walk, a path to live in, which was the purpose for His giving us the Word, the Torah, the Prophets, the Writings, and the Apostolic Scriptures, and provided us with an example in His Son Yeshua the Messiah. The Lord is trustworthy and true, and He is able to guide us, and to help us each day, saving us from death, destruction, and wickedness. Amen!
