1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Teaching and Instructions of
Purification. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
YHWH spoke to Moses and to Aaron,
saying,
2 “This is the statute of the Torah (teaching
and instruction) which YHWH has commanded: Speak to the children of Israel,
that they bring you a red heifer without spot, in which is no blemish, and
which was never yoked.
3 You shall give her to Eleazar the priest, and
he shall bring her forth outside of the camp, and one shall kill her before his
face:
4 and Eleazar the priest shall take of her
blood with his finger, and sprinkle her blood toward the front of the Tent of
Meeting seven times.
5 One shall burn the heifer in his sight; her
skin, and her flesh, and her blood, with her dung, shall he burn:
6 and the priest shall take cedar wood, and
hyssop, and scarlet, and cast it into the midst of the burning of the heifer.
7 Then the priest shall wash his clothes, and
he shall bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp,
and the priest shall be unclean until the evening.
8 He who burns her shall wash his clothes in
water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the evening.
9 “A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes
of the heifer, and lay them up outside of the camp in a clean place; and it
shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water for
impurity: it is a sin offering.
10 He who gathers the ashes of the heifer shall
wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: and it shall be to the
children of Israel, and to the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them,
for a statute forever.
11 “He who touches the dead body of any man
shall be unclean seven days:
12 the same shall purify himself with water on
the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean: but if he doesn’t
purify himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean.
13 Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a
man who has died, and doesn’t purify himself, defiles the tabernacle of YHWH;
and that soul shall be cut off from Israel: because the water for impurity was
not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean; his uncleanness is yet on him.
14 “This is the Torah-instruction when a man
dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent, and everyone who is in the
tent, shall be unclean seven days.
15 Every open vessel, which has no covering
bound on it, is unclean.
16 “Whoever in the open field touches one who
is slain with a sword, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be
unclean seven days.
17 “For the unclean they shall take of the
ashes of the burning of the sin offering; and running water shall be put
thereto in a vessel:
18 and a clean person shall take hyssop, and
dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent, and on all the vessels, and
on the persons who were there, and on him who touched the bone, or the slain,
or the dead, or the grave:
19 and the clean person shall sprinkle on the
unclean on the third day, and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he
shall purify him; and he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water,
and shall be clean at evening.
20 But the man who shall be unclean, and shall
not purify himself, that soul shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly,
because he has defiled the sanctuary of YHWH: the water for impurity has not
been sprinkled on him; he is unclean.
21 It shall be a perpetual statute to them: and
he who sprinkles the water for impurity shall wash his clothes, and he who
touches the water for impurity shall be unclean until evening.
22 “Whatever the unclean person touches shall
be unclean; and the soul that touches it shall be unclean until evening.”

Hebrews 4.
Hebrews
4.
1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. The Promise of Rest. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Let us fear therefore, lest
perhaps anyone of you should seem to have come short of a promise of entering
into his rest.
2 For indeed we have had good news preached to
us, even as they also did, but the word they heard didn’t profit them, because
it wasn’t mixed with faith by those who heard.
3 For we who have believed do enter into that
rest, even as he has said, “As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter into my
rest;” although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4 For he has said this somewhere about the
seventh day, “ELOHIM rested on the seventh day from all his works;”
5 and in this place again, “They will not enter
into my rest.”
6 Seeing therefore it remains that some should
enter therein, and they to whom the good news was before preached failed to
enter in because of disobedience,
7 he again defines a certain day, today, saying
through David so long a time afterward (just as has been said), “Today if you will hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts.”
8 For if Joshua had given them rest, he would
not have spoken afterward of another day.
9 There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for
the people of ELOHIM!
10 For he who has entered into his rest has
himself also rested from his works, as ELOHIM did from his.
11 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. The Word Discovers Our
Condition. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Let us therefore give diligence to
enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.
12 For the word of ELOHIM is living, and
active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing
of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the
thoughts and intentions of the heart.
13 There is no creature that is hidden from his
sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom
we have to do.
14 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Our Compassionate High Priest. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Having then a great high priest,
who has passed through the heavens, YESHUA, the Son of ELOHIM, let us hold
tightly to our confession.
15 For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be
touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points
tempted like we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore draw near with boldness to
the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in
time of need.

1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Moses' Error at Kadesh. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
The children of Israel, even the
whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Zin in the first month: and the
people stayed in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there.
2 There was no water for the congregation: and
they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
3 The people strove with Moses, and spoke,
saying, “We wish that we had died when our brothers died before YHWH!
4 Why have you brought the assembly of YHWH
into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals?
5 Why have you made us to come up out of Egypt,
to bring us in to this evil place? It is no place of seed, or of figs, or of
vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink.”
6 Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the
assembly to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and fell on their faces: and the
glory of YHWH appeared to them.
7 YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,
8 “Take the rod, and assemble the congregation,
you, and Aaron your brother, and speak to the rock before their eyes, that it
give forth its water; and you shall bring forth to them water out of the rock;
so you shall give the congregation and their livestock drink.”
9 Moses took the rod from before YHWH, as he
commanded him.
10 Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly
together before the rock, and he said to them, “Hear now, you rebels; shall we
bring you water out of this rock for you?”
11 Moses lifted up his hand, and struck the
rock with his rod twice: and water came forth abundantly, and the congregation
drank, and their livestock.
12 YHWH said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you
didn’t believe in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel,
therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given
them.”
13 These are the waters of Meribah; because the
children of Israel strove with YHWH, and he was sanctified in them.
14 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Passage Through Edom Refused. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Moses sent messengers from Kadesh
to the king of Edom, saying: “Thus says your brother Israel: You know all the
travail that has happened to us:
15 how our fathers went down into Egypt, and we
lived in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians dealt ill with us, and our
fathers:
16 and when we cried to YHWH, he heard our
voice, and sent an angel, and brought us forth out of Egypt: and behold, we are
in Kadesh, a city in the uttermost of your border.
17 “Please let us pass through your land: we
will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink of the
water of the wells: we will go along the king’s highway; we will not turn aside
to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your border.”
18 Edom said to him, “You shall not pass
through me, lest I come out with the sword against you.”
19 The children of Israel said to him, “We will
go up by the highway; and if we drink of your water, I and my livestock, then
will I give its price: let me only, without doing anything else, pass through
on my feet.”
20 He said, “You shall not pass through.” Edom
came out against him with many people, and with a strong hand.
21 Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage
through his border, so Israel turned away from him.
22 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Death of Aaron. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
They traveled from Kadesh: and the
children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor.
23 YHWH spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor,
by the border of the land of Edom, saying,
24 “Aaron shall be gathered to his people; for
he shall not enter into the land which I have given to the children of Israel,
because you rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring
them up to Mount Hor;
26 and strip Aaron of his garments, and put
them on Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be taken, and shall die there.”
27 Moses did as YHWH commanded: and they went
up into Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.
28 Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, and
put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain:
and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.
29 When all the congregation saw that Aaron was
dead, they wept for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.

1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Qualifications for High
Priesthood. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
For every high priest, being taken
from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to ELOHIM, that he
may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.
2 The high priest can deal gently with those
who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with
weakness.
3 Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for
sins for the people, as well as for himself.
4 Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is
called by ELOHIM, just like Aaron was.
5 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. A Priest Forever. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
So also Messiah didn’t glorify
himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him, “You are my Son. Today I have become your father.”
6 As he says also in another place, “You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.”
7 He, in the days of his flesh, having offered
up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to
save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
8 though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by
the things which he suffered.
9 Having been made perfect, he became to all of
those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,
10 named by ELOHIM a high priest after the
order of Melchizedek.
11 About him we have many words to say, and
hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing.
12 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Spiritual Immaturity. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
For although by this time you
should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of
the first principles of the oracles of ELOHIM! You have come to need milk, and
not solid food.
13 For everyone who lives on milk is not
experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.
14 But solid food is for those who are full
grown, who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and
evil.

1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Canaanites Defeated at Hormah. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
The Canaanite, the king of Arad,
who lived in the South, heard tell that Israel came by the way of Atharim; and
he fought against Israel, and took some of them captive.
2 Israel vowed a vow to YHWH, and said, “If you
will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their
cities.”
3 YHWH listened to the voice of Israel, and
delivered up the Canaanites; and they utterly destroyed them and their cities:
and the name of the place was called Hormah.
4 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. The Bronze Serpent. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
They traveled from Mount Hor by
the way to the Sea of Suf, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the
people was much discouraged because of the way.
5 The people spoke against ELOHIM, and against
Moses, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For
there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathes this light
bread.”
6 YHWH sent fiery serpents among the people,
and they bit the people; and many people of Israel died.
7 The people came to Moses, and said, “We have
sinned, because we have spoken against YHWH, and against you. Pray to YHWH,
that he take away the serpents from us.” Moses prayed for the people.
8 YHWH said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent,
and set it on a standard: and it shall happen, that everyone who is bitten,
when he sees it, shall live.”
9 Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it on
the standard: and it happened, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he
looked to the serpent of brass, he lived.
10 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. From Mount Hor to Moab. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
The children of Israel traveled,
and encamped in Oboth.
11 They traveled from Oboth, and encamped at
Iyeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrise.
12 From there they traveled, and encamped in
the valley of Zered.
13 From there they traveled, and encamped on
the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness, that comes out of the
border of the Amorites: for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and
the Amorites.
14 Therefore it is said in the book of the Wars
of YHWH, “Vaheb in Suphah, the valleys of the Arnon,
15 the slope of the valleys that incline toward
the dwelling of Ar, leans on the border of Moab.”
16 From there they traveled to Beer: that is
the well of which YHWH said to Moses, “Gather the people together, and I will
give them water.”
17 Then sang Israel this song: “Spring up, well; sing to it:
18 the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, and with their
poles.” From the wilderness they
traveled to Mattanah;
19 and from Mattanah to Nahaliel; and from
Nahaliel to Bamoth;
20 and from Bamoth to the valley that is in the
field of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looks down on the desert.
21 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. King Sihon Defeated. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Israel sent messengers to Sihon
king of the Amorites, saying,
22 “Let me pass through your land: we will not
turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the
wells: we will go by the king’s highway, until we have passed your border.”
23 Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through
his border: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against
Israel into the wilderness, and came to Jahaz; and he fought against Israel.
24 Israel struck him with the edge of the
sword, and possessed his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, even to the
children of Ammon; for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
25 Israel took all these cities: and Israel
lived in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all its towns.
26 For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king
of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all
his land out of his hand, even to the Arnon.
27 Therefore those who speak in proverbs
say, “Come to Heshbon. Let the city of Sihon be built and
established;
28 for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon. It has devoured Ar of Moab, The masters of the high places of the Arnon.
29 Woe to you, Moab! You are undone, people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites.
30 We have shot at them. Heshbon has perished even to Dibon. We have laid waste even to Nophah, Which reaches to Medeba.”
31 Thus Israel lived in the land of the
Amorites.
32 Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took
its towns, and drove out the Amorites who were there.
33 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. King Og Defeated. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
They turned and went up by the way
of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his
people, to battle at Edrei.
34 YHWH said to Moses, “Don’t fear him: for I
have delivered him into your hand, and all his people, and his land; and you
shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived at
Heshbon.”
35 So they struck him, and his sons and all his
people, until there was none left him remaining: and they possessed his land.
1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Balak Sends for Balaam. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.

Chukah
(continued):
Judges
11:1-33.
1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Jephthah. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a
mighty man of valor, and he was the son of a prostitute: and Gilead became the
father of Jephthah.
2 Gilead’s wife bore him sons; and when his
wife’s sons grew up, they drove out Jephthah, and said to him, “You shall not
inherit in our father’s house; for you are the son of another woman.”
3 Then Jephthah fled from his brothers, and
lived in the land of Tob: and there were gathered vain fellows to Jephthah, and
they went out with him.
4 It happened after a while, that the children
of Ammon made war against Israel.
5 It was so, that when the children of Ammon
made war against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah out of the
land of Tob;
6 and they said to Jephthah, “Come and be our
chief, that we may fight with the children of Ammon.”
7 Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead,
“Didn’t you hate me, and drive me out of my father’s house? Why have you come
to me now when you are in distress?”
8 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah,
“Therefore we have turned again to you now, that you may go with us, and fight
with the children of Ammon; and you shall be our head over all the inhabitants
of Gilead.”
9 Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “If
you bring me home again to fight with the children of Ammon, and YHWH deliver
them before me, shall I be your head?”
10 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “YHWH
shall be witness between us; surely according to your word so will we do.”
11 Then Jephthah went with the elders of
Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them: and Jephthah spoke
all his words before YHWH in Mizpah.
12 Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the
children of Ammon, saying, “What have you to do with me, that you have come to
me to fight against my land?”
13 The king of the children of Ammon answered
to the messengers of Jephthah, “Because Israel took away my land, when he came
up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and to the Jordan: now
therefore restore that territory again peaceably.”
14 Jephthah sent messengers again to the king
of the children of Ammon;
15 and he said to him, “Thus says Jephthah:
Israel didn’t take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of
Ammon,
16 but when they came up from Egypt, and Israel
went through the wilderness to the Sea of Suf, and came to Kadesh;
17 then Israel sent messengers to the king of
Edom, saying, ‘Please let me pass through your land;’ but the king of Edom
didn’t listen. In the same way, he sent to the king of Moab; but he would not:
and Israel stayed in Kadesh.
18 Then they went through the wilderness, and
went around the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side
of the land of Moab, and they encamped on the other side of the Arnon; but they
didn’t come within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab.
19 Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the
Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, ‘Please let us pass
through your land to my place.’
20 But Sihon didn’t trust Israel to pass
through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and encamped in
Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
21 YHWH, the ELOHIM of Israel, delivered Sihon
and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them: so Israel
possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country.
22 They possessed all the border of the
Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to
the Jordan.
23 So now YHWH, the ELOHIM of Israel, has
dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should you possess
them?
24 Won’t you possess that which Chemosh your
god gives you to possess? So whoever YHWH our ELOHIM has dispossessed from
before us, them will we possess.
25 Now are you anything better than Balak the
son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever
fight against them?
26 While Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns,
and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of
the Arnon, three hundred years; why didn’t you recover them within that time?
27 I therefore have not sinned against you, but
you do me wrong to war against me. YHWH, the Judge, be judge this day between
the children of Israel and the children of Ammon.”
28 However the king of the children of Ammon
didn’t listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent him.
29 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. Jephthah's Vow and Victory. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Then the Spirit of YHWH came on
Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of
Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the children of Ammon.
30 Jephthah vowed a vow to YHWH, and said, “If
you will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand,
31 then it shall be, that whatever comes forth
from the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children
of Ammon, it shall be YHWH’s, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.”
32 So Jephthah passed over to the children of
Ammon to fight against them; and YHWH delivered them into his hand.
33 He struck them from Aroer until you come to
Minnith, even twenty cities, and to Abelcheramim, with a very great slaughter.
So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

Chukah
(continued):
Hebrews
6.
1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. The Peril of Not Progressing. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
Therefore leaving the teaching of
the first principles of Messiah, let us press on to perfection not laying again
a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith toward ELOHIM,
2 of the teaching of immersions, of laying on
of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3 This will we do, if ELOHIM permits.
4 For concerning those who were once
enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the
Holy Spirit,
5 and tasted the good word of ELOHIM, and the
powers of the age to come,
6 and then fell away, it is impossible to renew
them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of ELOHIM for themselves
again, and put him to open shame.
7 For the land which has drunk the rain that
comes often on it, and brings forth a crop suitable for them for whose sake it
is also tilled, receives blessing from ELOHIM;
8 but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is
rejected and near being cursed, whose end is to be burned.
9 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. A Better Estimate. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
But, beloved, we are persuaded of
better things for you, and things that accompany salvation, even though we
speak like this.
10 For ELOHIM is not unrighteous, so as to
forget your work and the labor of love which you showed toward his name, in
that you served the holy ones, and still do serve them.
11 We desire that each one of you may show the
same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end,
12 that you won’t be sluggish, but imitators of
those who through faith and patience inherited the promises.
13 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. ELOHIM's Infallible Purpose in
Messiah. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
For when ELOHIM made a promise to
Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he swore by himself,
14 saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you,
and multiplying I will multiply you.”
15 Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained
the promise.
16 For men indeed swear by a greater one, and
in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation.
17 In this way ELOHIM, being determined to show
more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel,
interposed with an oath;
18 that by two immutable things, in which it is
impossible for ELOHIM to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled
for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us.
19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul,
a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil;
20 where as a forerunner YESHUA entered for us,
having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.
