ISAIAH 42:5-43:10

The prophet speaks through the Spirit of YHVH saying: “I, YHVH, have called you in righteousness, and I take hold of your hand and guard you, and give you for a Brit (covenant) to a people, for a Light to the gentiles, to open blind eyes, to bring out prisoners from the prison, those who sit in darkness from the prison house” 42:6,7

Some say that this is referring to the prophet himself. Really? Was Yeshayahu(Isaiah) called to be a “covenant?” to open blind eyes? To set the prisoners free? Yet re-arrange the letters in the name “Yeshayahu” and we get Y-E-S-H-U-A-H! it was HE who the prophet was talking about. His name means “Salvation” and He came as a ‘blood covenant” that would not simply cover for a year, but to get rid of, wipe out, the sin we inherited. He came not only to his own Jewish people but also to the peoples of the nations outside of Israel.

He not only opened the eyes of the physically blind but also for those who were spiritually blind. Once we did not understand the Bible, or we could have cared less for the Bible, but since we have accepted Yeshua as Messiah and LORD, now we have the Holy Spirit to help us understand the Torah. Once we lived in spiritual darkness, in the prison of HaSatan, called the “lost world” but we have been freed to follow HIM who set us free.

“And I shall lead the blind by a way they have not known, in paths they have not known. I lead them. I make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight” (42:16)

The new paths are the Torah paths, David wrote; “thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path”

By allowing God’s Word to take root in our lives, our paths are made straight, we now know how to tell the difference between the Holy and unholy, between the clean and the unclean. The WORD that is taught to us through the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit), using God’s chosen teachers is His gift to us, as born-again believers, it is our duty to stay on the right path.

There are “blind people” who have eyes, yet do not see, they may see physically, but they do not see spiritually, God’s Word can change all that (43:8)

MATT 3:1-4:25; JOHN 1:1

We read the ancestry of Messiah Yeshua, his birth during one of the evenings of Sukkot, and his escape with his parents to Egypt when Herod sought to kill him. Later, YHVH “brought up HIS SON out of Egypt” Adonai saw his children go into Egypt through Jacob, and they also came out of Egypt through Moshe, Adonai led HIS SON down to Egypt with Miriam and Yosef, and Yosef and Miriam led him BACK to Israel.

Now, Yeshua, HIS Son leads us ALL out of the Egypt of this world through a relationship with HIM, In John 1:1 it says; “In the beginning was the word, and the word was with YHVH, and YHVH was the WORD” In this we see that Yeshua took part in the creation of this world, as “The WORD” this is the essence of the name “Elohim” the plural G-d who is “Three” yet “One” like; 1 x 1 x 1 = 1

We know that Elohim SPOKE the world into existence. When we speak we use WORDS. So when God spoke, Yeshua spoke as well.
He was /is the LIGHT that was REVEALED in the beginning. Is God's eternal LIGHT in you?

What time is it? Almost 10:05? Where in eternity would you be if God called for your soul at 10:03?

@BenAvraham I'm so sad for you. You simply refuse to see what God is doing TODAY.

Once, you quoted Paul:
2Tim 2:15 (AKJV/PCE)​
(2:15) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.​

Even then, you did not even quote the entire verse (or attribute it to Paul).

You know that Paul wrote THIRTEEN EPISTLES, right?

Hello BenAvraham,
I agree The LORD was speaking about our Lord the Messiah. I see your two verses reading like this - Isa. 42:6,7:
I YHWH [the LORD] have called [you Jeshuah/My promised Messiah/the WORD of God] in righteousness [sinless-ness] and I take hold of your hand and guard you, and give you for a Brit [covenant/promise/pact] to a [particular sort of] people, for a Light to the gentiles [non believers], to open blind eyes, to bring out prisoners from the prison, those [particular sort of people] who sit in darkness [clueless-ness] from the prison house [their current prison]"

I think God the Spirit with his presence spoke to his Son often in scripture. A study, which I have been discussing around on TOL, is another instance where God Almighty spoke to his promised WORD/ who was with God and was God, who came as the Christ.

Ps82:8 Arise O God [who is The WORD as my promised son who shall be called Emmanuel and Jesus] judge the earth: for thou [being the risen God] shalt inherit all nations.

Also John 1:1-5 reveals that GOD came as that LIGHT unto men. He opened the eyes of those in blind clueless-ness and people beheld him as a mortal son of man/yet being The Son of God
John 1:18 Tells us that no man had ever seen The Son, who was God appearing in flesh, until John the Baptist revealed who he was to people in his day.
“And I shall lead the blind by a way they have not known, in paths they have not known. I lead them. I make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight” (42:16)

The new paths are the Torah paths, David wrote; “thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path”

I love the Torah and the rest of the Old Testament with its judges and prophets. I believe seekers of God need both the Old and the New when they want to know God better, but I believe even more that the new way/as the verse mentions -a way they have not known, to reach the Father comes through Jesus/the New testament. The New Way is what Jesus mentioned: I am TRUTH, the LIGHT, and the WAY. John the Baptist tells us in John 1:9-10 tat Jesus was THAT LIGHT.

By going back to the book of Isaiah chapter 43 we can read God's explanation of who the Messiah was/is.

Is. 43:11 I [God the Spirit], even I AM the LORD [Father], beside ME [who is the SPIRIT and LORD] there is no SAVIOR.

IOW, God is the Father YHWH. God is YHWH and the SAVIOR. Therefore Our LORD Jesus was God among men- Emmanuel.


By allowing God’s Word to take root in our lives, our paths are made straight, we now know how to tell the difference between the Holy and unholy, between the clean and the unclean. The WORD that is taught to us through the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit), using God’s chosen teachers is His gift to us, as born-again believers, it is our duty to stay on the right path.

There are “blind people” who have eyes, yet do not see, they may see physically, but they do not see spiritually, God’s Word can change all that (43:8)

MATT 3:1-4:25; JOHN 1:1

We read the ancestry of Messiah Yeshua, his birth during one of the evenings of Sukkot, and his escape with his parents to Egypt when Herod sought to kill him. Later, YHVH “brought up HIS SON out of Egypt” Adonai saw his children go into Egypt through Jacob, and they also came out of Egypt through Moshe, Adonai led HIS SON down to Egypt with Miriam and Yosef, and Yosef and Miriam led him BACK to Israel.

Now, Yeshua, HIS Son leads us ALL out of the Egypt of this world through a relationship with HIM, In John 1:1 it says; “In the beginning was the word, and the word was with YHVH, and YHVH was the WORD” In this we see that Yeshua took part in the creation of this world, as “The WORD” this is the essence of the name “Elohim” the plural G-d who is “Three” yet “One” like; 1 x 1 x 1 = 1

We know that Elohim SPOKE the world into existence. When we speak we use WORDS. So when God spoke, Yeshua spoke as well.
He was /is the LIGHT that was REVEALED in the beginning. Is God's eternal LIGHT in you?
Wonderfully said. I will just add one more point.

Jesus was not only THAT commissioned and promised LIGHT to come, but he was The living WORD ... The God who spoke things into existence in the beginning.
Who was the WORD? He was with God and was God. He was the audible voice of God the patriarchs and prophets heard. He was the voice of the LORD... even when Jesus of Flesh spoke. He said I only do and say what my Father tells me.

What -the WORD is an identifiable living personage of the God Head?
God's Spirit is LIFE... therefore all his essence / characteristics are alive in him while being ONE with HIM. His Word is alive and teaching within us; His Power is alive and working in and through us; His Love lives and he can reveal it; his mercy lives and reigns; His peace and joy comes to us in times of sorrow; and so forth.
Amen






What time is it? Almost 10:05? Where in eternity would you be if God called for your soul at 10:03?

Someone would greet me... and I would enter the place My Lord has prepared for his saints to be with him ... where we wait until the end of all God's plans. I would know that one day there will be a wonderful kingdom where all things in heaven and earth will have been perfected. What a glorious day that will be!

That was beautiful and Truth. It is this.

2 Tim. 3: 14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
