To: To all those called pure ones, beloved of Yâ-hwéh, who are in Róma1: favor to you and peace from the Power our Father, and our Sovereign, Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed. ¶ First, I thank my mighty Ones through Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed for you all, because your persuasion is announced in the whole world!

Thus, as regards to me, is my readiness to announce the Glad Tidings even to those of you in Róma. For I am not ashamed of the Glad Tidings of the Deliverer, for it is the force of Yâhwéh unto deliverance for every one that believes in it, both to Yâhuwthím2 first, then to Hellenists3;
According to the true definition of Yâhuwthím in Chapters 2-3, these are those entrusted with the Words of Yâ-hwéh, who are circumcised of heart, whose praise comes from Yâhwéh, not from men. These who have His true name are going to be the first to enter into His Kingdom after His arrival in judgment after the 6th seal. These are the remnant. 3 The many, the name-denying Christians who follow after Greek names and who thus are not circumcised of heart, nor released from sin are these who will enter the Kingdom in resurrection, at the 7th trumpet. This is why they must wait… 4

Also Yâ-hwéh Father was Yâhuw-Pater, transliterated Iupiter, and the I became J, becoming Jupiter. Jove and Jupiter, though considered the Greeks’ and Romans’ chief daemon, was corrupted and made a mythological figure in a polytheistic lie by them, the former descendants of Yisrâ’Ë´l, becoming spiritually heathen then. Many residual parallels may be drawn between Greek mythology and Scriptural history and predictions due to this (e.g. a heroic Son, through a human female [Hercules], Mt. Olympus ~ Mt.

This refers to the apostasy, which builds on a different foundation for a greater number of converts. This intrigue is to become manifested in the Lie who will incarnate and conquer the world for himself. 10 “And He said this to me: ‘This is the curse going out over the surface of the whole earth: because everyone of the ones thieving from this side, according to it, shall be erased; and everyone of the ones filling it in from this other side, according to it, shall be erased: I shall send it out,” declares Yâ-hwéh of Hosts, “and it will come to the house of the thief, and to the house of the one filling in the Lie for My name, and it will remain within his house, and it will destroy it and its timbers and its stones!”: Then the Envoy speaking to me came forward and He said to me: “Lift your eyes now, and look! What is this one going abroad?” And I asked: “What is it?” And He replied: “This is the bushel (’Ëyphâ´h), the one going abroad”, and He added: “This is their vision source throughout all the earth [“Holy Bible”].” Then see! The cover of lead was raised and this one woman was sitting within the bushel. And He said: “This is the WICKEDNESS! [the LorD XëzVs ChrIstos 666]” And He pushed her into the interior of the bushel and He pushed the cover of lead over its mouth. And I lifted up my eyes and I looked, and see! Two women going out with wind in their wings and their wings were like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the bushel out of the earth and out of the heavens. And I said to the Envoy, the One speaking to me: “To where are they carrying the bushel?” And He replied to me: “To build for it a house in the land of Shin`â´r. When it is ready, then it will be set there on her place [the image of the beast exiled to Bâvél].” 11 Spiritual true Yâhuwthím, not the tribal definition. We are first disciplined and brought to task and straightened out, in preparation for His coming. This is the rebuilding of the Virgin of Yisrâ’Ë´l, which turns and cures and becomes the surviving remnant. 12 This term is now recognizable as being Christianity: spiritual Yisrâ’Ë´l worshipping in Greek corrupted terms, e.g. Diós (Zeus), Christ (anointed), Iglesia (convocation), Bible 12

The true Yâhuwthíy and the true Circumcision For [fleshly] circumcision indeed profits if you practice the Law, but if you are a transgressor of the Law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision [of the heart]. [YirmYâ´huw 9: 25-26] Therefore if the [fleshly] Uncircumcision keeps the just deeds of the Law, shall not his [fleshly] uncircumcision be credited for circumcision [of the heart]? [Nikódemos 12: 1] And the [fleshly] Uncircumcision, who by nature fulfills the Law, shall judge you, who through scripture and circumcision are a transgressor of the Law! For a Yâhuwthíy is not he who is one in appearance, neither is Circumcision that which is visibly made in the flesh. Rather, he who is a Yâhuwthíy covertly is a Yâhuwthíy, and the circumcision of the

Chapter 3 Our advantage not rescinded ¶ What is then the superiority of the [covert] Yâhuwthíy? Or what the profit of the Circumcision [of the heart]? Much in terms of every way! Primarily indeed for the fact that they were entrusted with the words of Yâ-hwéh. [Guarded by the True Yâhuwthím: Disclosure 3: 9-10] What for, if some did not believe?

Is Yâ-hwéh unrighteous to inflict the wrath? (I speak as would a human) May it not be! For then how shall Yâhwéh judge the world? For why am I also yet judged as a sinner, if by my lie the Truth of Yâ-hwéh abounded to His honor? And not according as we Yâhuwthím are injuriously charged, or as some (whose condemnation is just) affirm that we say, “Let us do evil things, that good things may come.”

There was a rent in the rock at the base of the cross-hole and the blood of the bleeding Yâhuwshúa` nailed to the gallowscross flowed through this down to the ceiling of the cavern and dripped through a crack in the stone lid covering the box (ark), and actually covered the mercy-seat of the lid of the box.

For if ’Avrâhâ´m was justified by works, he has a boasting matter, though not before Yâ-hwéh. For what does the scripture say? “And he (’Avrâhâ´m) believed in Yâhwéh, and He credited it to him for righteousness.” [Genesis 15: 6] Now to him that works, the wages are not credited because of favor, rather, because of debt. But to him that does not work, yet believes on Him that rectifies the irreverent – his persuasion is credited for righteousness. Just as also Dâwíth declares the joys of the man to whom Yâ-hwéh reckons righteousness separately from works, saying:

Rectification vs. Circumcision of flesh Is then this happiness upon the circumcision [of flesh], or also upon the uncircumcision?

So he received a sign, of Circumcision [of the heart]: a seal of the rectification from the belief which was during his [fleshly] uncircumcision, for him to be father of all those that believe through uncircumcision, for the righteousness to also be credited to them. And father of Circumcision [of the heart] not only to those heretofore circumcision [of the flesh], rather also to those that walk in the steps of the persuasion of our father ’Avrâhâ´m during his [fleshly] uncircumcision! Means of the Promise For the promise to ’Avrâhâ´m or to his Seed that he should be heir of the world was not by means of a Law, rather, through the righteousness of his belief!

– For if only those from the Law be heirs, persuasion has been made void, and the promise annulled! For the Law accomplishes wrath; but where there is not a law, neither is there transgression – Due to that thing [that his justification was apart from Law], rectification is from belief, so that it may be by favor for the promise [of inheritance] to be assured to all of the Seed, not only to the One from the Law, rather also to the one from ’Avrâhâ´m’s persuasion, who is father of us all!

Facing Him Whom you19 believed, Yâhwéh, Who quickens the dead and calls the things not being as being, [Yshá`Yâhuw 42: 8-9] So that is why without a hope he believed on the hope, that is why he became father of many heathen masses, according to that which has been written, “Thus shall be your Seed.” [Genesis 15: 5] And not being weak in trust, he did not consider his own defunct body which was a hundred years old, or the defunct womb of Sârâ´h; Yet at the promise of Yâ-hwéh, he did not doubt in unbelief, instead, he was strengthened in belief, giving praise to Yâ-hwéh,
Greek translations say “he” here. Either is correct, but I feel the “you” found in the Aramaic gives a sense of fellowship, and raises the fact that ’Avrâhâ´m, like Moshéh, saw Yâ-hwéh face to face, and this means they saw the Son, the Image of Yâ-hwéh. 30

For when we were yet strengthless, during the feast season [MattithYâ´huw 26: 18], the Anointed died for the irreverent. For hardly any one would die for an irreverent21 man; for on behalf of the good man perhaps even someone might dare to die; Yet Yâ-hwéh exhibits His own Love to us in that when we were still sinners, the Anointed died for us. [Yshá`Yâhuw 54: 11] Therefore now, as we have been rectified by His blood, much more shall we be delivered through Him from the wrath! For, if when we were enemies we were reconciled to Yâ-hwéh by means of the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, shall His Life rescue us!

For until the time of the Law, sin was in the world, though when there was not a Law, sin was not put to account; Nonetheless, death reigned from ’Âthâ´m until Moshéh, even over those who had not sinned in the likeness of the transgression of the law of ’Âthâ´m, who is a likeness of the coming One.

Sin outmatched by Favor However, the free gift is not also thus as the offense! For if to the offense of the one, the many died, how much greater than it did the favor of Yâ-hwéh abound with the gift by favor of the One Son of ’Âthâ´m, Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed, for the many? Yet the gift was not as only for the sake of the error of one, for the judgment indeed was for condemnation from one offense, but the free gift is for rectification from many offenses! For if, for the offense of the one, Death reigned through the one ’Âthâ´m, much more shall those receiving the abundance of favor and of the gift of rectification reign in Life through the other ’Âthâ´m, Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed! 35

Then therefore, as for the sake of one offense was condemnation for all the sons of ’Âthâ´m, thus also, for the sake of one righteous deed is the worthiness of Life for all the sons of ’Âthâ´m. For just as through the disobedience of the one human the many were constituted sinners, thus also through the obedience of the One, the many shall be constituted righteous. But the Law entered in additionally, that the offense might abound [Galátas 3: 19]; yet where the sin abounds, the favor does exceed it, In order that, just as sin reigned by death, thus might favor yet reign through rectification for endless life, by the hand of Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed, our Sovereign.

Chapter 6 Meaning of immersion into Yâhuwshúa` ¶ What then are we saying [in 5: 20]? That we should continue in sin in order that favor might abound? May it not be! We, who died for the sin, how should we still be made to live within it? Or are ye ignorant that we – as many as were immersed into Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed – were immersed into His death? Therefore we were buried for Him into death by means of immersion, so that, just as the Anointed was raised up from among the dead by means of the Honor of the Father, thus also we should walk about in renewed life. 1.

Now I was once alive apart from a law; but when the commandment had come, sin was revived, and I died. So the commandment, which was for life, this was found to me to be for death!

Sin deceives and kills For sin, having taken an opportunity through the commandment, cheated me out [of life], and slew me by means of it. So that the Law is indeed pure, and the commandment is pure and just and good. Then, that Law which is good, has it become death to me? May it not be! Instead, sin has, in order that it might be recognized as sin, accomplished death for me by means of the good commandment, in order that the sin might [make me] become excessively sinful by means of the commandment.

His own Son in a likeness of the flesh of sin, has condemned the sin in the flesh, in order that the Law’s righteous judgment should be fulfilled in us, who walk not by the flesh, rather by the spirit. For they that are in the flesh, mind the things of the flesh, but those in the spirit, the things of the spirit. For the mindset of the flesh is death, but the mindset of the spirit is life and peace. For that very reason, the mindset of the flesh is for the Adversary28 against Yâhwéh, because it is not subject to the Law of Yâ-hwéh, for neither can it be! So they that are in the flesh cannot please Yâ-hwéh.

Yet if the Anointed is held in you, the body indeed is held dead on account of sin, but the spirit holds life through rectification!

Thus these are commonly known as “Christians” nowadays. Those who did believe on Him, if they denied Him at His coming as the Anointed Son of ’Âthâ´m, ceased to be Yisrâ’Ë´l, and are called Ya`aqóv in scripture (Yshá`Yâhuw 48), and are commonly known as “Jews”. 37 Present in the Aramaic but not the Greek translation.

For not yet being born, nor having done anything good or evil – in order that Yâhwéh’s predetermination might remain by choice, not by works, rather by the hand of Him Who calls – It was spoken to her, “…The greater (older) shall bondserve the lesser (younger).” [Genesis 25: 23] According as it has been written, “…Yet I loved Ya`aqóv; but `Ësâ´w I hated…” [Mal’âkhíy 1: 2-3] Choice by His mercy is not unfair ¶ What then do we say? Is it [selection] unfairness by Yâ-hwéh? May it not be! For look!

So then it [being chosen] is not of him that desires for it, nor of him that strives after it, rather of Yâ-hwéh Who shows mercy. For the scripture says to the Par`óh, “But however for this very purpose I caused you to stand firm, in order to demonstrate to you38 My power and so that My name shall be proclaimed in all of the earth.” [Exodus 9: 16] So then, to whom He wills, He shows mercy; and whom He wills, He allows to39 harden. Why choice is His privilege ¶ Then you might say to me,
Yâ-hwéh does not do anything uselessly. There is no need to mistranslate this verse as “by you” or “in thee”, since the Scroll of Yâshâ´r documents that this Par`óh, though he was hardened, did not follow his troops into the Sea of Reeds, and at that point believed on Yâ-hwéh, and was taken away by an envoy to Niynwë´h to rule there (Yâshâ´r 81: 40-41). 39 Scripture backs this insert, since Yâ-hwéh doesn’t do the evil which He may allow to happen. To say He does these things directly when it is really indirect is an `Ivríyth (Hebrew) idiom. 62

Because the Law they pursue was not from trusting, instead as from works of the Law, because they strike at the striking Stone42, [Yshá`Yâhuw 8: 14, 1 Këph 2: 8, To the `Ivríym 6: 1] According as it has been written, “…Here I am, to lay in Tsiyyówn43 a Stone, [a tested Stone, a valued Cornerstone for a sure Foundation; (Yshá`Yâhuw 28: 16)]

Most Christians will not admit they try to justify themselves by the Law (Towrâ´h), but this verse says why they in effect truly do try. It is BECAUSE they strike at Yâhuwshúa`’s name, and there is no justification through belief in any other name. This is made clearer in 1 Këph 2: 8. 43 Mount Tsiyyówn is also Mount MowriyYâ´hu, and the same mountain on which the hanging of Yâhuwshúa` was done on the gallows-cross, as the place of the skull is part of the same mountain outside the city wall of Yruwshâláim. 67

¶ Therefore, no longer should we judge one another; instead, decide ye rather this: to not place an obstacle or a snare before your brother. I understand and am persuaded by Yâhwéh71 Yâhuwshúa` that nothing is unclean of itself, except to him who reckons anything to be unclean, to that one alone it is unclean. But if your brother is aggravated with you due to meat, you no longer are walking about by affectionate love. Do not destroy with your meat him for whom the Anointed died! Let not your goodness be reviled, therefore, For the Kingdom of Yâ-hwéh is not about eating and drinking, rather righteousness

So then we should pursue the things of peace, and the things for building up one another! Do not, for the sake of meat, depart from the work of Yâ-hwéh. All things indeed are clean [1 Timótheos 4: 3-5]; however, to the son of ’Âthâ´m who eats it due to tripping, it is evil. It is virtuous to neither eat flesh, nor drink wine, nor whatever our brother strikes against, or is caused to lose trust by, being weak. Do you have a persuasion? Hold it to yourself in Yâ-hwéh’s sight. Happy is the

But we who are strong ought to bear up the infirmities of the disabled, and not to please ourselves. For let each one of us please his neighbor by goodness towards edification. For even the Anointed One did not please His Self, instead, according as it has been written, “[Because for Your sake, I endure scorn, wounds cover My face: I am an alien to My brothers and a stranger to the sons of My 103

Summary: Why honor His name For I am saying Yâhuwshúa` the Anointed has become an Attendant of Circumcision [of the heart] for the Truth of Yâ-hwéh in order to confirm the promises of the fathers, Moreover for the heathen masses to honor Yâ-hwéh for His mercy which came to them, according as it has been written: “[Yâ-hwéh lives!

Because He shall avenge the blood of His bondmen and He will take vengeance upon His opponents, and His people will atone His land.]” [Deuteronomy 32: 43 per the Dead Sea Scrolls and the LXX] And again,

Since I could not presume to speak anything of what the Anointed did not accomplish through me for the heathen masses’ obedience, by word and deed, By force of signs and wonders by force of Yâ-hwéh’s spirit, thus as for me to have fully preached the Glad Tidings of the Deliverer from Yruwshâláim even round as far up as ’Illuricúm!
