But when he Created Man and before that he knew that the time will that he also will look like Adam and walk the earth like a man and in obedience to God he did not esteemed him self being God the Creator and humble himself to live every thing he had and be born from Mary after he was conceived by Mary and was carried in her womb the full gestation period of nine months and be born in Bethlehem. 

He found himself as a man and started from the beginning the first Man being born from a woman with the Life of God in him. The one who had the Life from the beginning and who breath the Life in Adam now he is born in Bethlehem, now he is with a body for the first time. But he had to live as a man and die on the Cross as a man. 

He had to be taught by the Angel Gabriel who he was before he was born and what his mission was the reason why he came to earth as a man to died on the Cross to redeemed man and earn a Heavenly Inheritance for Man and give man of his Eternal Life so man can be with God forever living without the fear of death.

This is the Gospel, but please make a specific question on focus on something and in another post make another one so we can proceed with some order and get on the Bottom of things. 

Generally everything is in scripture and in more than one part both on the new and the old testament.

I don't understand 'and started from the beginning 'the first Man' being born from a woman with the Life of God in him unless this is just a reference to the living word walking among us and if so feel free to skip

Don't need to copy any of them just list the BK, C, V.  And never hurry to follow up a post just to get back to me.  I have plenty of time and no problem with patience.  Rather have you enjoying the journey and stress free.  I like to use these kinds of things to see where they lead and many times I find myself pulled off into other directions and next thing you know it's been a couple days.  But thank you for the touch.

Jesus made the distinction between himself and the Heavenly Father, and how did he do it. 

Also Paul and John and all the other disciples and also John the Baptist had come to understand that Jesus Christ before he was born he pre-existed not as another man who lived before no this kind of non sense. 

This is briefly his pre-existance.

In John one verse (v)1 we read, * 

John 1:1-3, KJV 

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

The same was in the beginning with God.

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

And also in Revelation about Jesus being the Word of God. 

the Word in John 1:1 who was God the Creator of all things and man left everything he had , he humble himself to be born in Bethlehem...

John 1: the word was made flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory ....as the only one begotten by the Father 

philipians 2:5-8 

5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 

Hebrews 2:9 

9, But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

 

* Revelations 19: 12,13

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

 

In verse one, reading carefully we can make the distinction between God the Father and God the Son. 

There is a reason why John made this distinction to call God the Son "the Word" and it maybe more than one reason.

One of them could be and I say that "it maybe because what I am going to say it is a unique situation but that does not mean this is the reason why John call him the Word of God. 

God the Word, the Creator, the Lord, the Almighty, the God of Abraham, the Lord God of the Israelites, God the Jehovah are all and the same. Only one God and it is in reference to God the Creator but not to the Heavenly Father and we may asked why is that.

This is because God the Father as we see in John 1:1 sent or Asked the God who came out of him to create all things in Heaven and then he sent him on a mission to create the earth and for that matter our solar system and all the powers that uphold everything together-gravity-magnetism-the atmosphere-oxyzen, carbon and ....then when everything was in place and the environment was ready for man to live and thrive then the time came to create man. 

John called him the Word because The Heavenly Father had given him something that he spoke things into being.

And kept everything in order by the power of his word. 

We can see that when the Lord comission Moses and gave him the power to speak things into being when he was dealing with Faraoh. 

That's why the Lord said to Moses that I will make you a God to Faraoh's eyes. 

Exodus 7:1,2 KJV

7 1.And the Lord said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.

Thou shalt speak all that I command thee: and Aaron thy brother shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send the children of Israel out of his land

I will continue to fill in the rest of your request.

Quick bits

Access to The Tree of life (bread of life)was cut off and the tree of life is required for the continuing of life.  

Genesis 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever

Genesis 3:23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.


Man  'regenerated' 

Revelation 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
 

Revelation 22:1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

Revelation 22:2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.




In the day you eat of it you will die.  The 'day' a thousand years.  Methuselah lived to be 900 something, I think.  (more info for how long 'a day' is)

Being cut off from the tree insured 'death' of the flesh hence expulsion from the garden so that 'sin' could not have an eternal future.  

Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.  

That is the second death,  proving after death in the flesh,  there is a body that has a soul.  


Our flesh eyes were opened while our spiritual eyes were closed.  


When our 'flesh' became sinful we lost the 'likeness' to God.

 


xtra info

2 Corinthians 4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

2 Corinthians 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

2 Corinthians 5:2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:

2 Corinthians 5:3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.

2 Corinthians 5:4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

Luke chapter 2:43-50 KJV

43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it.

44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.

45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.

46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.

47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.

48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.

49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?

50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.

    *********

Mary and Joseph found Jesus who was twelve years old in the temple in conversation about their religion with the doctors and the teachers of the of the scriptures.

Everyone who heard the twelve years old Jesus was amazed at his knowledge and his understanding and so was his mother and Joseph, and in v49 Jesus said to his mother and to Joseph

"wish you not that I must be about my Father's business. 

*Here we have Jesus telling them that he was doing his "Father's business ". 

Jesus was saying to Joseph that he was about his Father's business. 

And they could not understand what he was saying, but they did not discuss it further.  

From Mary's and Joseph's reactive behavior we can reasonably conclude that Mary and Joseph had kept it a secret from Jesus about how he was conceived and the fact that Joseph was not his Father.

 Joseph had taken up the roll as his Father and everyone in their community and their  relatives believed that Jesus was the fruit of the union of Joseph and Mary and that what Jesus believed and he was brought up to call Joseph his Father, but at twelve years old Jesus knew that he was not from Joseph and that he was from God, that he was divine and that Mary was his mother.  

They kept secret from Jesus about his  miraculous birth. and no one knew their secret but them and they did not say anything to Jesus. If it was made known they would not be believe and their lives would be endangered. 

From Jesus actions in the temple and his deep knowledge and his manner of discussing religious and scriptural matters with the teachers of the Law made everyone wondering about where he got his knowledge from and about his deep understanding and his ability to discuss matters at the same level with them, the teachers of the Law.

***Jesus was conceived, he did not bring anything with him at the time of his conception, all the wisdom and the vast knowledge he had as the God Almighty did not follow him in his New Life as Jesus.

Everything was left behind. Jesus started his life just like us, from the beginning as an embryo he grew in Mary's womb for the full nine months gestation period of a human. Jesus was a divine man. When he was born he did not know anything and he had to be taught from his mother while he was growing up as a child about the language and their Coulture.  He did not know who he was and where he was till he was taught by his mother and by the Arhagel Gabriel, who taught him what he nedded to know at the right time, but at twelve years old he knew that he was divine and he called God his Father.

And before that time he believed what they told him that he was the seed of man, that Joseph was his Father. 

Till the time when he said to Joseph something that only could be said if it was revealed to Jesus that Joseph is not his Father, that at that time at twelve years old Jesus had the revelation that  he was divine and that God was his Father. 

We also can tell that he understood that he had a special mission ahead of him because he said to Mary and Joseph that he is doing his Father's business. 

In Luke 1: we read that the Archangel Gabriel who stands in the presence of God had the mission to protect the family and for that matter to also teach Jesus alot of things about who he really is and break him slowly into understanding his mission as to why he was born. 

Jesus at this young age had the knowledge and deep understanding of spiritual matters and he was not taught by any man.

Then please explain 

Jeremiah 4:22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

Jeremiah 4:23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.

Jeremiah 4:24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.

Jeremiah 4:25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.

Jeremiah 4:26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.

Jeremiah 4:27 For thus hath the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.

Jeremiah 4:28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black; because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.

Shalom, DeighAnn.

It's really quite simple: read the WHOLE prophecy. I'd say, read the whole chapter, but chapter and verse divisions are NOT "inspired" and they were ARBITRARILY put into the Scriptures back in the 16th Century, back in the 1500s A.D! In any case, one shouldn't just ASSUME that some passages are talking about the same thing because they were written somewhat alike! What I'm saying is that Jeremiah 4:22-28 has NOTHING to do with Genesis 1:1-2!

Jeremiah 1:1-3 (KJV)

1 The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin: 2 To whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. 3 It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto THE CARRYING AWAY OF JERUSALEM CAPTIVE in the fifth month.

Jeremiah 1:13-19 (KJV)

13 And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time, saying,

"What seest thou?"

And I said,

"I see a seething pot; and the face thereof is toward the north."

14 Then the LORD said unto me,

"Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land. 15 For, lo, I will call all the families of THE KINGDOMS OF THE NORTH," saith the LORD; "and they shall come, and THEY SHALL SET EVERY ONE HIS THRONE AT THE ENTERING OF THE GATES OF JERUSALEM, and against all the walls thereof round about, and AGAINST ALL THE CITIES OF JUDAH. 16 And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands. 17 Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them. 18 For, behold, I have made THEE (Yirmeyahuw or "Jeremiah") this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of JUDAH  against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land. 19 And THEY SHALL FIGHT AGAINST THEE; BUT THEY SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST THEE; FOR I AM WITH THEE," saith the LORD, "TO DELIVER THEE."

Now, let's open up the context of the chapter. 

Look at Jeremiah 4:

Jeremiah 4:4-7 (KJV)

4 Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.

5 Declare ye in Judah, and publish in Jerusalem; and say, "Blow ye the trumpet in the land (of Israel)!": cry, gather together, and say, "Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the defenced cities."

6 Set up the standard toward Zion: retire, stay not: for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.

7 The "lion is come up from his thicket," and the destroyer of the Gentiles is on his way; he is gone forth from his place to make thy land desolate; and thy cities shall be laid waste, without an inhabitant.

Understand at this point that we are talking about the Land of Israel that sits on the western end of the Fertile Crescent. Generally, invaders from the East would go north and around the desert rather than travel across it. So, the invaders would come from the NORTH, the TOP of the Fertile Crescent. And, that's what happened when Babylon invaded in 597 B.C.

Jeremiah 4:11-21 (KJV)

11 At that time shall it be said to this people and to Jerusalem,

"A dry wind of the high places in the wilderness toward the daughter of my people, not to fan, nor to cleanse, 12 Even a full wind from those places shall come unto me: now also will I give sentence against them!"

13 Behold, he shall come up as clouds, and his chariots shall be as a whirlwind: his horses are swifter than eagles. Woe unto us! for we are spoiled.

14 O Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayest be saved. How long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee?

15 For a voice declareth from Dan (in the north of Israel), and publisheth affliction from mount Ephraim (in the path toward Jerusalem).

16 Make ye mention to the nations; behold, publish against Jerusalem, that watchers come from a far country, and give out their voice against the cities of Judah.

17 "As keepers of a field, are they against her round about; because she hath been rebellious against me," saith the LORD.

18 Thy way and thy doings have procured these things unto thee; this is thy wickedness, because it is bitter, because it reacheth unto thine heart.

19 "My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart; my heart maketh a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because thou hast heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war! 20 Destruction upon destruction is cried; for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment. 21 How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet?"

NOW we read the verses you quoted:

Jeremiah 4:22-28 (KJV)

22 "For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge." 

23 I beheld the earth (the land), and, lo, it was without form (formless), and void (empty); and the heavens (skies), and they had no light (thick smoke). 24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled (shimmered in the air from the heat), and all the hills moved lightly (rippled in the light of the fires). 25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens (skies) were fled (had flown away). 26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger. 27 For thus hath the LORD said,

"The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end. 28 For this shall the earth (land) mourn, and the heavens (skies) above be black; because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it."

Later on God says,

Jeremiah 5:14-19  (KJV)

14 Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts,

"Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them. 15 Lo (Look!), I will bring a nation upon you from far, O house of Israel," saith the LORD: "it is a mighty nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say. 16 Their quiver is as an open sepulchre, they are all mighty men. 17 And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees: they shall impoverish thy fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.

18 "Nevertheless in those days," saith the LORD, "I will not make a full end with you. 19 And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, 'Wherefore doeth the LORD our God all these things unto us?' then shalt thou answer them, 'Like as ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours.'"

The bottom line is this: This passage is about Nebuchadnezzar's invasion of the Land of Judah and the Captivity that followed.

Not going to find it.... I simply followed the creation of Adam before and after the fall and also tied it into the Cross / Resurrection, then Pentecost and then onto the end of things were we will have that spirit returned to us and once again be a living soul.

Shabbat shalom, Charlie.

No, you're not going to find it because it's not there to be found. The "spirit" was never lost because it was never there in the first place. You're using the wrong definition of the word "spirit." In Hebrew, the word is "ruwach" and it means the "WIND," and at best, it may refer to a person's "wind"; that is, the "breath." Let it be impersonal! There's nothing in the Scriptures to suggest otherwise, and it's only through philosophy and theological positioning that makes one think otherwise! That's a HUMAN'S idea, not God's revelation!

On 5/1/2021 at 1:51 PM, Charlie744 said:

I do understand this is my opinion and was based on the above process, but I am comfortable with it...

After receiving your request for scripture I went online and found this brief article that might give you something to consider..

 

 

Hebrew words for “light” and “skin”

What did Adam and Eve wear in the Garden? We know the LORD clothed them in an animal after the Fall, but did they walk around in the nude before that? Could they have been clothed in something before that? In this blog, we’ll look at the Hebrew words for “light” and “skin” to gain insight to these questions.

LOST IN TRANSLATION

One area of Scripture that’s usually lost in translation is poetry. Let’s take Psalm 119 for example. Yes, it’s the longest chapter of Scripture, but it’s also an incredible [1]acrostic poem. David weaves each letter of the Hebrew alphabet into the stanzas of this one psalm. How incredible! Unfortunately, most audiences have no way of recognizing it in a translated text.

Another example of unseen poetry is the [2]play on words that readers miss when it comes to Adam and Eve’s clothing in the Garden. It’s found in Genesis 3:21 and Psalm 104:2.

Garments of Skin, Garments of Light

In Genesis 3:21, Moses wrote that God made Adam and Eve garments of “skin” to replace the fig leaves they had wrapped themselves with. The Hebrew word for “skin” in this verse is pronounced ore (like “this one OR that one”).

Psalm 104:2 says, “The LORD wraps himself in light as with a garment.” The actual clothing of God is “light.” The Hebrew word for “light” is also pronounced ore.

אר Ore” Strong’s 216 – light

ער Ore Strongs 5785 skin

The phonetic pronunciation of these two words are identical, yet they mean two very different things. Both words are spelled with a silent first letter (the aleph for “light” and the aiyin for “skin) followed by the resh.

No, the two words are NOT identical! They have two very different consonants sounds at the start of each word! It would be like saying there's a connection between "pin" and "bin!" Just because Westerners can't hear the difference between the two letters, alef and `ayin, doesn't mean there isn't one! The alef is the explosive sound you hear at the beginning of words like "apple," "egg," and "umbrella." The `ayin is like a "swallowed G" sound. It's the first letter in the name "Gaza"; it's not really a "g" sound. The true "g" sound is made by the Hebrew letter "gimmel," as in the name "Gad," one of the twelve tribes of Israel.

Exchanging the nature of light

Many rabbis believe that Adam and Eve, being made in the image of God, went from being clothed in ore (light) to being clothed in ore (skin). Upon sinning they exchanged a nature of light for a nature of flesh. See the wonderful play on words?

Genesis 3:7 says, “The eyes of [Adam and Eve] were opened, and they knew that they were naked.” The Hebrew word for “knew” in this verse is yada. It means “to learn, to perceive, to have knowledge of.” Many rabbis interpret that this verse is saying Adam and Eve yada (learned) that they had just become naked, whereas they had beforehand been clothed in “light.”

REFLECTING

Boiling down to the main point, Adam and Eve being clothed in “light” and “skin” has deeper meanings that just what they wore. It points to the spiritual side as well.

Man, like God, was wrapped in light before the Fall. But, when sin entered the world, darkness followed and light was exchanged for skin/flesh, a nature opposite of God who is spirit (John 4:24).

Children of flesh

By the sin of the first Adam we are naturally born as children of “flesh.” But through the death of the second Adam (Yeshua), we have the opportunity to be reborn as children of “light” (1 Thess. 5:5).

Yeshua, the Light of the World, calls you and I to become the light of the world (Matthew 5:14). We do this by putting off our old self and putting on our new self (Eph. 4:22-24).

This is all fictitious.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
