The Lamentations of Jeremiah, part 6

Date: 12/01/2025 Issue Number: 449

The Yod (Hand) Revelation Lam. 3:28-30 says, 28 [י] Let him sit alone and be silent since He has laid it on him. 29 [י] Let him put his mouth in the dust, perhaps there is hope. 30 [י] Let him give his cheek to the smiter, let him be filled with reproach. Each verse here begins with yod, a hand. One’s hands are raised in praise to God—hence, Judah, which begins with the yod, means “praise.” Raised hands signify surrender, humility, and submission, and this is how Jeremiah paints his picture

The Lamentations of Jeremiah, part 5

Date: 11/07/2025 Issue Number: 448

The Daleth (Door) Revelation Lam. 3:10-12 says, 10 [ד] He is to me like a bear lying in wait, like a lion in secret places. 11 [ד] He has turned aside my ways and torn me to pieces; He has made me desolate. 12 [ד] He has bent His bow and set me as a target for the arrow. Each verse here begins with daleth, a door or entryway, symbolizing access, passage, humility, or a way in/out. Here it emphasizes the frustrated pathways of life — doors that close, ways that collapse, movement redirected into calamity. All

The Lamentations of Jeremiah, part 4

Date: 10/01/2025 Issue Number: 447

The acrostic in Lam. 2:16 and 17 is reversed. Normally, the ayin would come before pey, but in this case, they are inverted. In Part 3 we covered the pey revelation. We continue now with the ayin revelation. The Ayin (Eye) Revelation Lam. 2:17 says, 1 [עָ] The Lord has done [asah] what He purposed. He has accomplished His word which He commanded from days of old. He has thrown down without sparing, and He has caused the enemy to rejoice over you. He has exalted the might of your adversaries. The first word in this

The Lamentations of Jeremiah, part 3

Date: 09/01/2025 Issue Number: 446

The second chapter of Lamentations is an acrostic in the same manner as chapter 1. The first letter of each of these verses begins with a Hebrew letter in ascending order of the Hebrew alphabet. The Alef (Bull) Revelation Lam. 2:1 begins, 1 [אֵ] How the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in His anger! He has cast from heaven to earth the glory of Israel and has not remembered His footstool in the day of His anger. As we saw in Lam. 1:1, the first word above is אֵיכֹה, ay-ko, “Alas!” whos

The Lamentations of Jeremiah, part 2

Date: 08/01/2025 Issue Number: 445

In part 1 we covered the first ten verses of Jeremiah’s Lamentations for Jerusalem. The first letter of each of these verses begins with a Hebrew letter in ascending order, so we now come to the eleventh verse, which begins with the eleventh letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The Kaf (Open Palm) Revelation 11 [כ] All her people groan seeking bread; they have given their precious things for food to restore their lives themselves. “See, O Lord, and look, for I am despised.” Verse 11 begins with the word

The Lamentations of Jeremiah, part 1

Date: 07/01/2025 Issue Number: 444

Jeremiah prophesied to the people of Jerusalem in the final decades before the city’s destruction in 586 B.C. His Lamentations were written to lament over that destruction, and so in later years the book was read on 9 Av each year, the day that the temple was destroyed by the Babylonians. In that we today are witnessing the final days of the same city once again, it seems appropriate that we do a study of Lamentations. In it is revealed the causes of destruction as well as the repentance that might have spare

Obadiah: Prophet of Edom’s Demise

Date: 06/02/2025 Issue Number: 443

Little is known about the prophet Obadiah, other than his name. His name means “servant of Jehovah.” His prophecy is undated, but its internal evidence probably dates it shortly after the fall of Jerusalem (586 B.C.). Edom was allied with Babylon and assisted them in destroying Jerusalem. The Wycliffe Bible Commentary tells us, “It is known that Edom was allied with the Babylonians and others at the fall of Jerusalem in 587/586 B.C. and participated in the plunder of the city.” (p. 839) Ev

Joel: Prophet of the Day of the Lord, Final

Date: 05/07/2025 Issue Number: 442

The third chapter of Joel condemns the nations for their practice of unchecked slavery. While slavery is a biblical manner of paying off debt, God makes it clear that this does not give the slave owner the right to mistreat his slaves. He must recognize that all slaves are actually owned by the God who created them. He owns what He creates, and so slave-owners are mere stewards. Slavery throughout history has failed to recognize this, and so the laws of nations usually give slave-owners sexual rights over their sla

Joel: Prophet of the Day of the Lord, Part 5

Date: 04/01/2025 Issue Number: 441

The third chapter of Joel speaks of the final judgment of nations at the end of the age—that is, in our time. This should not be confused with the great White Throne judgment at the end of the millennial age a thousand years from now. The judgment in our time is the judgment of the nations in existence at the end of the Pentecostal Age, whereas the White Throne judgment is directed toward all of humanity since the beginning of time. The judgment of the nations does not judge the people of past generations; he

Joel: Prophet of the Day of the Lord, Part 4

Date: 03/01/2025 Issue Number: 440

Just as the former and late rains produced the harvests of grain and fruit, so also did the Teacher of Righteousness (Joel 2:23) bring forth the fruit of the Spirit. Nature is a metaphor for spiritual principles, because the laws of nature are based on the laws of the Spirit. The laws of God have two applications, physical and spiritual, each in their own realms. Joel blends the two, using the double meaning of Hebrew words to present both applications of rain and harvest. Joel 2:24 says, 24 The threshing floors w

Joel: Prophet of the Day of the Lord, Part 3

Date: 02/01/2025 Issue Number: 439

We left off in Joel 2:11, which says, “The day of the Lord is indeed great and very awesome, and who can endure it?” Joel 2:12, 13 continues, 12 “Yet even now,” declares the Lord, “Return to Me with all your heart, and with fasting, weeping and mourning; 13 And rend your heart and not your garments.” Now return to the Lord your God, for He is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger; abounding in lovingkindness and relenting of evil.” The implication is that this “da

Joel: Prophet of the Day of the Lord, Part 2

Date: 01/01/2025 Issue Number: 438

The second chapter of Joel launches into a full-blown description of the Day of the Lord. The text appears to show the fulfillment in terms of the autumn feast days as well. It begins with the feast of Trumpets (Joel 2:1), followed by consecrating a fast (Joel 2:15), which is the Day of Atonement, followed by the promise of the Spirit (Joel 2:28), which, in this case is not Pentecost but the feast of Tabernacles. Pentecost saw a partial fulfillment of Joel’s prophecy, but the greater fulfillment comes at Tabe
