1
And it came to pass that the people who had been first in the land were converted unto יהוה (YHVH) and were washed clean of their sins, all they who had seen all the great works of יהוה (YHVH) that he did for Israel.
2
And so it was that they did mourn for their dead, for their dead could not be washed clean in יהוה (YHVH).
3
¶ And it came to pass that Israel did remember the words that Moses had given them, for he did say unto Israel:
4
And thus shalt thou do unto all they who dwell among you to cleanse them: Bathe them in water to the purifying of them, so make themselves clean;
5
For except you be born of the water, you cannot enter into the Kingdom of YHVH Adoni Ha’Shaboth (תבשה ןוֹדא הוהי YHVH, Lord of the Sabbath).
6
Yet no one may have washing (baptism) of water, except they have faith toward YHVH Raphacha (ךאפר הוהי YHVH Heals/Restores), and come unto Adoni Ha’Shaboth (תבשה ןוֹדא Lord of the Sabbath) through the Priesthood of Life which He has sent, in teshuvah; and these are they who seek to learn righteousness by the living word of His Torah:
7
For this is the door of all into the Kingdom of Israel; from the year of their discernment (eight years of age) and upwards; through which if ye enter not, ye shall not see El Roi (יאר לא God Who Sees Me).
8
And the keys of the Priesthood of Life are that of the remission of sins, in the sacrament of tevilah (baptism), hath יהוה (YHVH) thy Elohim, bestowed upon His talmidim;
9
And through them, upon their fellow laborers, the High Priests and High Priestesses, Elders, and Priests and Priestesses, teaching them to preach teshuvah and to all nations throughout the lands.
10
Thou shalt not abhor the Edomite, for he is thy brother; thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian because thou wast a stranger in her land.
11
¶ When ye shall take the land, all they who would not be counted against you shall be one with Israel.
12
And the children that are born to them shall enter the assembly of יהוה (YHVH) in their third generation.
13
Therefore, at every house (temple), which you will build unto יהוה (YHVH) thy Elohim, by His instruction, you shalt make a fountain for tevilah chesed shel emet (טבילה חסד של אמת), the bathing of the living on behalf of the dead.
14
¶ And for these shall the living be washed clean: Everyone, according to the several rights, and in the several orders, according to ancestry, gender, and title, shall they be washed clean for any deceased, be they a husband, a wife, or posterity;
15
Or be they any progenitor, or any brother, or any sister, whom, in faith, are to be remembered of Israel in Sheol.
16
¶ And if anyone should in marriage take a wife, and she is the first of her lineage adopted into the house of Israel, then in the redemption of the dead they shall be hers, and she shall bring them to the house of יהוה (YHVH) her Elohim;
17
And by your faith, they shall be sealed into the house of Israel forever, to raise up in the last day, and to increase the glory of the Kingdom.
18
¶ And so it shall be that they shall also be washed clean for any relative, within the fourth degree of ancestry; for anyone betrothed to thee in marriage;
19
For their father, their mother, their brother, their sister, or their child in adoption, whom יהוה (YHVH) shall give to them by tongue, dream, vision, spirit ministering in fire, word of angel, or by the Voice.
20
¶ And should YHVH Raphacha (ךאפר הוהי YHVH Heals/Restores) will that any servants of the Priesthood of Life be washed clean for any other, angels will come to signify it unto them.
21
But unto my servants of the Priesthood of Everlasting Life, the Voice, or יהוה (YHVH) will minister in fire (the Holy Spirit).
22
¶ But no man or woman among you shall be bathed for the dead who is not a member of the houses of Israel, by birth or by adoption;
23
Nor anyone who is unclean, according to the word of the Torah, nor any who keep back their part from the treasury of the House of יהוה (YHVH), your Elohim.
24
¶ And so it shall be that at every house which you shall build unto יהוה (YHVH) your Elohim, High Priests and High Priestesses shall be set apart, and sanctified by anointing with holy oil to wash clean for the dead, and none other shall administer this sacrament.
25
And recorders shall be set apart by the laying on of hands of High Priests and the High Priestesses, to record the washings for the dead; who shall be eyewitnesses to the washings, and shall record according to the seeing of their eyes.
26
And other witnesses, who see with their eyes, shall bear wittness of tevilah chesed shel emet, that all thing be proved by the testimony of two or three witnesses.
27
¶ But there shall be one record unto which all records of tevilah chesed shel emet shall be brought, and all written together in perpetual archives, and this that what has been sealed on the earth, may also be sealed in the Heavens.
28
And in every house of YHVH El Racham (םוּחר לא הוהי YHVH God of Lovingkindness) also shall ye keep the records of all who are clean.
29
¶ And except you be born of the Ruach HaKodesh, you cannot enter into the Kingdom of YHVH Adoni Ha’Shaboth (תבשה ןוֹדא הוהי YHVH, Lord of the Sabbath).
30
Therefore, so it shall be that all they who shall be bathed in tevilah, upon them shall one who hath been ordained unto the Priesthood of Eternal Life shall lay their hands upon them, and confirm them, by the spirit of prophecy and revelation, sealed in the Kingdom, according as the Voice speaketh.
31
¶ And the Ruach thus given shall grant unto them gifts of faith, knowledge, and understanding;
32
And if they cherish it, then shall it guide and establish them in all righteousness, and bring unto them further gifts.
33
¶ And so it shall be that when they do lay their hands upon them, the Breath, like an invigorating breeze, shall come upon them and cover them;
34
And it shall wash over them gifts and powers, according to the gifts of the Ruach HaKodesh;
35
And as the Ruach HaKodesh moveth on, this gift shall continue, and they shall walk in newness of life.
36
¶ And it came to pass that in the land given to Judah, a house was built unto YHVH Raphacha (ךאפר הוהי YHVH Heals/Restores), that sacrifices could be made and the washings prepared.
37
And so it was that the upper springs which Kaleb did give ‘Akcah for water did flow into the house (temple) of יהוה (YHVH), that the people in that land should be washed clean by the living waters;
38
And it came to pass that throughout all of Israel, where the people were, Israel did build houses unto יהוה (YHVH), that they could be washed and made clean along with their dead.
