1
And it came to pass that Zenock (צנך) being filled with the Breath of YHVH did open his lips, saying:
2
We have been given the words of Moses, which is the teachings of YHVH through that mighty hand;
3
And this wisdom has been passed down through the servants of YHVH, even the prophets, that we would have His Word:
4
That we might seek YHVH with all of our hearts and all of our souls; to love everything that YHVH hath given us, and to hate all that which YHVH doth hate;
5
For we do know that Moses did teach us to observe to do all that our Elohim, YHVH, did instruct us;
6
Therefore, we should be like unto the sons of our father, Joseph, even Manasseh and Ephraim. and turn aside not to the right hand nor to the left.
7
Yea, and Moses did teach us to walk in all the ways YHVH, our Elohim, did instruct us, that we may live, and that it may be well with us;
8
¶ And should we do this, Moses did even give us the Word of YHVH, saying:
9
Wherefore, thou shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and thou shall dwell in the land in safety.
10
And behold, ye do see the good things with which YHVH hath blessed His people;
11
Yea, and His mercy has not blessed your hearts that ye should give even as ye have been blessed or even as ye have been given;
12
Therefore, there is much injustice, and the rich do keep for themselves, and the poor, they are cast aside and discarded.
13
¶ Yet did not Moses give unto us the Word of YHVH when he did say unto us:
14
Thy desire shall be unto thy own, lest thou be corrupt, and the hand of thy neighbors be against thee, and the cry of the poor ascend to YHVH against thee.
15
And yet the poor do cry out unto YHVH even unto this day, seeking salvation from hunger and from thirst, and for relief for their impoverishment.
16
¶ And behold, Moses did say: Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause; but shall feed and clothe the poor among thee that my people be free, and their wants and needs be met.
17
And is there no poor amongst us? I say unto thee: Nay; the poor do scurry about in search for substance and in fear that they be molested when they have committed no crimes.
18
¶ And Moses did say: For when thou art obedient unto my covenant thou shalt be blessed, and prosper in the land that I shall give unto thee;
19
But when thou art not faithful, then shall my wrath be poured out upon thee.
20
And ye see that we have been a blessed people, but have we kept our mitzvoth? I say unto thee again: Nay; therefore, ye have no promise.
21
¶ And again, Moses did say unto us: And if thy brother or thy sister should wax poor and fall in decay with thee, then thou shalt relieve them;
22
Yea, though they be a stranger or a sojourner, that they may live with thee.
23
Take thou no usury of them, or increase; but fear thy Elohim, that thy brother or sister may live with thee.
24
Thou shalt not give them thy money upon usury nor lend them thy food or provisions for increase.
25
And yet ye would cast me out from amongst you for saying these things? And I know you sought to destroy me, but YHVH did deliver me from out of thy hands.
26
And yet I am one of you, for I am of the seed of Joseph through my mother, and my father be a Levite and a Priest unto this people.
27
¶ And seeing that I have cast aside the things of the earth, and I know ye think me mad,
28
For I do come before thee in sackcloth and ashes for the bondage and affliction that ye have caused your brothers and your sisters to suffer before YHVH;
29
And I say unto all of you that do hear my voice: It is YHVH who does judge all things in righteousness;
30
Therefore, be slow to hear the cries of the widows and the fatherless no more, and cast out the poor from amongst you no more;
31
But lift them up even as YHVH hath lifted you up; yea, do this and ye shall walk in perfection in the sight of YHVH.
32
For in loving your fellow men and fellow women you shall not stray from the truth but will walk in the perfection of the path of YHVH, our Elohim.
33
¶ For YHVH hath said unto me: Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brothers and sisters, to thy poor, and to thy needy in thy lands.
34
Wherefore, if ye will heed not unto my works, listen then to the words of Moses, friend of YHVH; for he did speak truly unto our fathers and our mothers, that we would know.
35
Shower not thy gift unto the Priest, and this I say when ye know that my father is a Priest amongst you,
36
Wait not for the sons of Aaron to give your tithes unto the poor, or for the Priests to bless the poor with your tithes and your offerings; but give to the poor amongst you freely of yourselves!
37
¶ And I do say unto you this day: That when our fathers and our mothers did enter into that covenant, we too did enter therein by their blood which is in us;
38
Therefore, all that YHVH did promise to bless them with, He should bless us with, and all that YHVH did promise to curse them with, He should curse us with.
39
And all of Israel did enter into that covenant; therefore, all that have sinned shall confess their sins:
40
For even as we have walked away from that truth it shall be justice that we are given.
41
Yet YHVH doth continue to shower many among us with His blessing, and why does He bless these? That they might bestow their gifts unto another.
42
¶ Yea, and we see that YHVH has showered His merciful favor, blessing us with the good things of the earth;
43
Therefore, may YHVH light up our hearts that we would see the countenance of His favor that we have been given!
44
¶ Yet YHVH hath sent me amongst you, saying: Accursed ye shall be for your wickedness, and if ye do not repent His justice shall come among you!
45
For the darkness of your deeds be great in His sight, and with that same mercy that ye have given shall ye receive;
46
Therefore, all they that deny mercy unto their brothers and their sisters shall the mercy of YHVH be denied.
47
¶ And when you do hear the Voice of the Covenant in your hearts, saying: Would that I have peace! Know that it is the darkness of your hearts that hath brought forth His anger.
48
And all they that have kept the covenant shall say: Amen unto your destruction, for the stubbornness of Israel shall be her justice!
49
¶ But know too that YHVH is mercy, and that He doth cleanse us of our sins:
50
And for this YHVH shall send His Son, that redemption should come through Him;
51
For I have seen the redemption of Israel; and it shall be swift in the righteousness of YHVH.
52
Wherefore, know ye that all that YHVH Elohim hath built, he too will destroy, and that all that YHVH should destroy, He will build it up again.
53
¶ For YHVH did give unto us the Sabbaths and the Holy Days, and these He did give unto us as signs that He would come unto us in the flesh.
54
And when the Son of Man will come, He will again take Israel from out of her bondage, but it shall be from the bondage of her sins.
55
And it shall be even as Moses was told of the Passover, for what shall be required of the Son of Man but that He should be taken from amongst His people?
56
But Israel shall see that justice cannot be taken nor can mercy be destroyed, and that the light of His mercy shall stand forever and ever to satisfy the demands of justice;
57
And in this ye shall know that there shall be bitter weeping and much destruction before the end should come.
58
¶ And I know that at these words ye do desire my blood, but it shall not be spilt yet, for YHVH hath given me more to say.
59
And I know that ye will not hear nor harken unto my words; therefore I give them not for you,
60
But that they should be preserved to be heard by they of our seed, even of Ephraim and Manasseh, they that shall be called away even unto the isles of the seas,
61
And they shall read my works and shall know that it is unto them that I speak.
62
And also, unto they that are of Israel in the last days, for these words shall come forth as a warning and all they that the Breath of Elohim doeth guide to hear them.
63
¶ Wherefore I say unto thee: Write ye my words that ye may use them as a sign against me this day, and that our seed might read them as a light in the darkness in their days.
64
For the things of YHVH are unknown to they that are the workers of darkness, though the legacy (inheritance or portion) of the sons and daughters of Adam be that they should know good from evil.
65
¶ But what has mankind done with this gift but give evil for good and evil for evil?
66
And are these the ways of YHVH, our Elohim?
67
I say unto thee nay, for Moses did give unto us the Word of YHVH, saying: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
68
And Moses did say unto us further: If a stranger should sojourn with thee in thy land, thou shall not vex them;
69
But the stranger that dwelleth with thee shall be unto thee as one born among you,
70
And thou shalt love them as thyself; for thou wast a stranger in the land of Egypt; and I am YHVH, thy Elohim.
71
Wherefore, I would ask you: Who then is thy neighbor?
72
¶ And again, Moses did say unto our fathers: And if a stranger shall sojourn among you and will keep the Passover,
73
According to the ordinance of the Passover and according to the manner thereof, so shall they do;
74
Thou shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger and for they who were born in the land.
75
Therefore, I do say unto you this day: Thy neighbor and the stranger, these are one in YHVH,
76
For there is but one Passover and thus one salvation for both the stranger and for they that are born in the land.
77
Wherefore, beware of pride in these things, for all the creation is as one unto YHVH.
78
¶ And when the Son of Man should come, He shall come unto His people first, and then He shall send Israel out to teach the world.
79
And why should He do this thing? Because the love of YHVH is great for this, His creation, and all of mankind He would bless through His servant, Israel:
80
Wherefore, it is in this, at the end, that YHVH shall bring us into His new creation;
81
For YHVH doth know the stubbornness of His people, and He doth pity and succor us with His grace.
82
¶ Yet the time does soon come when we too shall see His justice and plea for His mercy, even as the poor amongst you do plea for your mercy.
83
Will you then hear their pleas that YHVH should hear your cries in your time of need?
84
And perhaps thou might say: But YHVH shall bless him for YHVH, our Elohim hath blessed me as such!
85
¶ But I say unto you: Thou doth not know the mercy nor the blessing of YHVH; for all that He does give doth belong to YHVH, think not that it be of thy strength,
86
But know that YHVH doth give freely unto they that He doth bless that these should bless they that YHVH doth send unto them:
87
Wherefore, I say again unto thee, even as Moses hath said: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;
88
Therefore, all that YHVH hath blessed thee with, He hath given that ye should bless your neighbors.
89
¶ And again, I say unto all you who would hear my words: Harken now unto the word which YHVH hath breathed unto me.
90
And this shall be a sign: Though ye do seek to take my life, ye shall not have it,
91
But YHVH shall deliver me unto you even unto my death if it should be the will of El Elyon, once His Word hath been spoken through his servant.
92
For my words must be known and should be written down,
93
That they who shall be taken unto the isles of the seas be warned that they should know to reject the man of lies and to believe the words of the teachers of YHVH.
