Jacob and Esau.

What we see playing out in the world today, has been prophesied to happen by YHVH Himself many years ago. When Moses spoke to Elohim in Exodus 3: 13, he said: “Behold, I am going to the sons of Israel, and I shall say to them, ‘The Elohim of your fathers has sent me to you.’ Now they may say to me, ‘What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?” Elohim identified Himself to Moses saying in verse 14, “I AM[1] WHO I AM”, and He said, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, I AM has sent me to you.’” The words ‘I AM’ means that Elohim is, was and will be forever (eternally), as may be understood from verse 15, as follows: ‘And Elohim, furthermore, said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, YHVH, the Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Abraham, the Elohim of Isaac, and the Elohim of Jacob, has sent me to you. ‘This is My name forever, and this is My memorial-name to all generations.’”’Elohim reveals Himself as the creator of everything that exists. If He created all there is, then He must have existed before they did.

Since everything in existence except the Creator is temporal, it is logical to conclude that YHVH our Elohim is the only One who is Eternal, as is also confirmed in Psalm 90: 2, as follows: ‘Before the mountains were born, or Thou didst give birth to the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, Thou art Elohim.’ One of His promises is to give us eternal life in His coming Kingdom. Could He give us something that He does not have? Obviously not! Our Father in heaven is called the ‘I AM’, meaning YHVH or the Eternal, the only one who always existed and because He is in control of what happens to His creation, He knows the end from the beginning.As mentioned in a previous sermon, YHVH made a two-fold promise to Abraham; firstly,that his descendants through Isaac and Jacob would inherit the Promised Land for ever, provided they like Abraham prove their faith in YHVH by obedience to Him, including to circumcise their male children at the age of 8-days old, as a sign to this eternal covenant. Secondly,that He will bring the people who will eventually become known as the lost ten tribes of the house of Israel because of idolatry and disobedience to Him, back to the covenant relationship they made with Him together with the house of Judah, to again have an opportunity to become first born heirs of Abraham to inherit their part of the Promised land which they lost, through Abraham’s one Seed, namely Yahshua, who will also eventually save the rest of mankind who after learning Elohim’s true way after the 2nd resurrection, and decide to follow it, as second born children into Elohim’s eternal family.

Talking specifically to those of us from the lost ten tribes who were scattered abroad because of idolatry, YHVH said through Moses in Deuteronomy 4: 24 – 31: “For YHVH your Elohim is a consuming fire, a jealous Elohim. (25) When you become the father of children and children’s children and have remained long in the land, and act corruptly, and make an idol in the form of anything, and do that which is evil in the sight of YHVH your Elohim so as to provoke Him to anger, (26) I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that you shall surely perish quickly from the land where you are going over the Jordan to possess it. You shall not live long on it, but shall be utterly destroyed. (27) And YHVH will scatter you among the peoples, and you shall be left few in number among the nations, where YHVH shall drive you. (28) And there you will serve gods, the work of man’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell. (29) But from there you will seek YHVH your Elohim, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. (30) When you are in distress and all these things have come upon you, in the latter days, you will return to YHVH your Elohim and listen to His voice. (31)For YHVH your Elohim is a compassionate Elohim; He will not fail you nor destroy you nor forget the covenant with your fathers which He swore to them.”YHVH tells us through Isaiah how He will bring the house of Israel back into a covenant relationship with Him in Isaiah 49: 1 – 8, saying: ‘Listen to Me, O islands (or coastlands), and pay attention, you peoples from afar (meaning the house of Israel). YHVH called Me from the womb; from the body of My mother He named Me. (2) And He has made My mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of His hand He has concealed Me, and He has also made Me a select arrow; He has hidden Me in His quiver. (3) And He said to Me, “You are My servant, Israel, in Whom I will show My glory.” (4) But I said, “I have toiled in vain, I have spent My strength for nothing and vanity; yet surely the justice due to Me is with YHVH, and My reward with My Elohim.” (5) And now says YHVH, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, to bring Jacob back to Him, in order that Israel might be gathered to Him (for I am honored in the sight of YHVH, and My Elohim is My strength), (6) He says, “It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob,and to restore the preserved ones of Israel (Nostrum – Nazarenes or watchmen); I will also make You a light of the nations so that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth. (7) Thus says YHVH, the Redeemer of Israel, and its Holy One, to the despised One, to the One abhorred by the nation, to the Servant of rulers, “Kings shall see and arise, Princes shall also bow down; because of YHVH who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel who has chosen You.” (8) Thus says YHVH, “In a favorable time I have answered You, and in a day of salvation I have helped You; and I will keep You and give You for a covenant of the people, to restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages.” Yahshua came to restore the Nazarene believers in Him from the lost ten tribes and will ultimately, when He returns, bring us back to the Promised Land.

The prophecy continues in verses 12 – 18 of Isaiah 49, as follows: “Behold, these shall come from afar; and lo, these will come from the north and from the west, and these from the land of Sinim.” (13) Shout for joy, O heavens! And rejoice, O earth! Break forth into joyful shouting, O mountains! For YHVH has comforted His people, and will have compassion on His afflicted. (14) But Zion said, “YHVH has forsaken me, and YHVH has forgotten me.”(15) “Can a woman forget her nursing child, and have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you. (16) “Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; your walls are continually before Me. (17) Your builders hurry; your destroyers and devastators will depart from you. (18)Lift up your eyes and look around; all of them gather together, they come to you. As I live,” declares YHVH, “You shall surely put on all of them as jewels, and bind them on as a bride.”Moving forward to verses 22 – 26, we are told that YHVH will also save our children and end by telling why He will do this for us, in this way: ‘Thus says YHVH Elohim, “Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations, and set up My standard to the peoples; and they will bring your sons in their bosom, and your daughters will be carried on their shoulders. (23) And kings will be your guardians, and their princesses your nurses. They will bow down to you with their faces to the earth, and lick the dust of your feet; and you will know that I am YHVH; those who hopefully wait for Me will not be put to shame. (24) Can the prey be taken from the mighty man, or the captives of a tyrant be rescued?” (25) Surely, thus says YHVH, “Even the captives of the mighty man will be taken away, and the prey of the tyrant will be rescued; for I will contend with the one who contends with you, and I will save your sons. (26)And I will feed your oppressors with their own flesh, and they will become drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine; and all flesh will know that I, YHVH, am your Savior, and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.” Without even considering what we are told about Yahshua in the Renewed Covenant, YHVH shows us in Isaiah 49 how His word became the Son of Man to buy back the portion of the Promised Land that we from the lost ten tribes lost through idolatry, and how He came to restore the Nazarenes of Israel, before His return to earth in the near future. He tells us that we need not fear, since He has not forgotten us, and that we are inscribed in the palms of His hands (referring to Messiah’s nail scarred hands); so that the rest of mankind will know that He is our Savior and the Redeemer of Israel. For those who continue teaching people that YHVH is a trinity or that there are two (YHVH)’s, Yahshua being the lesser YHVH and the Set-apart Spirit simply being the power of Elohim, this should be one reason to out rightly reject their false doctrines.

It is because so-called ‘believers’ speculate about the Oneness of Elohim, that they eventually become more evil, as Rav Shaul explains in Romans 1: 16 -32, saying: ‘For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of Elohim for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. (17) For in it the righteousness of Elohim is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.” (18) For the wrath of Elohim is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, (19) because that which is known about Elohim is evident within them (human beings)[2]; for Elohim made it evident to them. (20) For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes[3], His eternal power[4]and divine nature[5], have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. (21) For even though they knew Elohim, they did not honor Him as Elohim, or give thanks; but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. (22) Professing to be wise, they became fools (trying to speculate whether Elohim is three G-ds in one, or that He consist of two (YHVH)’s, or even that Messiah was an angel before His ‘human’ birth), (23) and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible Elohim for an image in the formof corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures (meaning created beings). (24) Therefore Elohim gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, that their bodies might be dishonored among them. (25) For they exchanged the truth of Elohim for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amein. (26) For this reason Elohim gave them over to degrading passions; for their woman exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, (27) and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. (Here we are given the reason for the ever increasing incidents of homosexuality.) (28) And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge Elohim any longer, Elohim gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, (29) being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, (30) slanderers, haters of Elohim, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient, to parents, (31) without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; (32)and, although they know the ordinance of Elohim, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.’ If you ever wondered why mankind is waxing worse? Here we are given the reason! Wow, what a serious indictment against most of the churches of the world? But, considering recently published statistics by an Italian magazine which claims that 98% of Catholic priests are gay, it is not far off the mark.

Judaism identifies Rome as modern day Esau. They hold that Esau has been holding the house of Israel (some of the children of Jacob) captive since they were scattered into the nations of the world. The age old feud between Esau and Jacob has been perpetuated through Religious Babylon, the harlot who sits on seven heads/mountains, namely the Roman Catholic Church and her Protestant daughters, but also Islam which was started by the Roman Catholics to assist them in opposing Judaism. The Church ruled western society for about 1800 years whilst Islam ruled the eastern half of the Roman Empire. Commercial Babylon also dominates the economies of the west and is based on the ethics and customs of Rome, which is derived directly from Babylon started by Nimrod. Islam has up to recently been empowering the economies of the west through their control of its oil. The Church in all its forms, including the Churches of G-d and Assemblies of YHVH all believe in pure replacement theology, since they all believe they have replaced the house of Judah as Elohim’s chosen people. Christianity and those Assemblies who usurp the authority of the Jews in declaring annual Feast Days according to their own design are in fact the synagogue of Satan mentioned in Revelation 2: 9 and 3: 9. The main reason why replacement theology has become established in modern societyis because Messiah’s main purpose was hidden for almost two thousand years. It was only about 15 years ago that Nazarene Judaism discovered Messiah’s main purpose to bring the lost sheep of the house of Israel back to the covenant they made with Elohim at Mount Sinai, together with the house of Judah. From the start of Nazarene Judaism, evil forces aimed to destroy it and because of sustained attacks, the movement almost vanished by the fourth century. But, it never disappeared totally, as there have always been Torah observant individuals who believed in Yahshua the Messiah. The forces against us are the same forces that are against our Jewish brothers, namely anti-Semitism, which is in actual fact lawlessness. Rav Shaul told the Ephesian elders in Acts 20: 29 & 30, saying:“I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; (30) and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.” In fact the great falling away is an essential part of the end time events that will precede the return of Yahshua our Messiah, as we read from 2 Thessalonians 2: 1 – 3: ‘Now we request you, brethren, with regard to the coming of our Master Yahshua Messiah, and our gathering together to Him,(2) that you may not be quickly shaken from your composure or be disturbed either by a spirit or a message or a letter as if from us, to the effect that the day of YHVH has come. (3) Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy(falling away) comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction.’

The message that was concealed by the prophet Daniel until the end of time in Daniel 12: 4 was directly related to Messiah’s purpose for coming to earth the first time, as Yahshua confirmed in the parable of the prodigal son but also when He authenticated the Jewish synagogue in John 10: 14 – 17, saying: “I am the good shepherd; and I know My own, and My own know Me, (15) even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep. (16) And I have other sheep, which are not of this fold (or synagogue); I must bring them also, and they shall hear My voice and they shall become one flock with one shepherd. (17) For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again.” Elohim used groups like the Churches of G-d and others to discover the identity of the lost ten tribes of Israel; truth which has over the past 20 years or so been confirmed by Jewish groups like Brit-Am and Kolhator in Israel. These truths so vitally important to understand that about 90 percent of the prophecies in the Scriptures are aimed at those of us who are still alive before the end of this age. The truth about Messiah’s main purpose pours cold water on the doctrines of all the churches of the world, including the Messianic Jews, since Messiah came specifically to bring the lost sheep of the house of Israel back to the faith into which He was born, namely Judaism, and not to Christianize the world, as he confirmed when he answered the Canaanite woman who asked Him to heal her demon-possessed daughter in Matthew 15: 24, saying: “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” What very few people today realize, is that the commonwealth of Israel consisting of both the house of Israel and the house of Judah ruled over by King David’s son was and will again be known as the Kingdom of Elohim on earth, as is confirmed in 1 Chronicles 28: 4 & 5, as follows: “Yet, YHVH, the Elohim of Israel, chose me from all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever. For He has chosen Judah to be a leader; and in the house of Judah, my father’s house, and among the sons of my father He took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel. (5) And of all my sons (for YHVH has given me many sons), He has chosen my son Solomon to sit on the throne of the Kingdom of YHVH over Israel.”

Rav Shaul confirmed Messiah’s main purpose in Ephesians 2: 11 – 16, saying: ‘Therefore remember, that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “Un-circumcision” by the so-called “Circumcision,” which is performed in the flesh by human hands— (12) remember that you were at that time separate from Messiah, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise[6], having no hope and without Elohim in the world. (13) But now in Messiah Yahshua you who formerly were far off[7] have been brought near by the blood of Messiah. (14) For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one, and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, (15) by abolishing in His flesh the enmity (or punishment of the law due to our disobedience to Torah), which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances (meaning specifically the judgments against us for breaking the commandments), that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace, (16)and might reconcile them both in one body (the body of Messiah or His bride) to Elohim through the cross, by it having put to death the enmity.”

Most people will read over this section without ever understanding the same, because they are not meant to understand it at this time, as Yahshua explained to His disciples when they asked Him why He spoke to people in parables in Matthew 13: 10. We read His answer to them in verses 11, 12 and the first part of verse 19, saying: “To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted. (12) For whoever has, to him shall more be given, and he shall have an abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him. (19) “When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away that has been sown in his heart.” The fact that Yahshua atoned for the house of Judah as well as for the lost sheep of the house of Israel, will be denied by most, but is recorded in John 11: 49 – 52, as follows: ‘But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all, (50) nor do you take into account that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation should not perish.” (51) Now this he did not say on his own initiative; but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Yahshua was going to die for the nation, (52) and not for the nation only, but that He might also gather together into one the children of Elohim who are scattered abroad.’

Rav Shaul has been trying to inform believers about these truths ever since Messiah instructed him personally for about three years after His ascension to heaven, as we read from Hebrews 8: 6 – 12, saying: ‘But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises. (7) For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion sought for a second. (8)For finding fault with them, He says, “BEHOLD, DAYS ARE COMING, SAYS YHVH, WHEN I WILL EFFECT A NEW COVENANT WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND WITH THE HOUSE OF JUDAH; (9)NOT LIKE THE COVENANT WHICH I MADE WITH THEIR FATHERS ON THE DAY WHEN I TOOK THEM BY THE HAND TO LEAD THEM OUT OF THE LAND OF EGYPT; FOR THEY DID NOT CONTINUE IN MY COVENANT, AND I DID NOT CARE FOR THEM, SAYS YHVH. (10)FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS YHVH: I WILL PUT MY LAWS INTO THEIR MINDS, AND I WILL WRITE THEM UPON THEIR HEARTS. AND I WILL BE THEIR ELOHIM, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE. (11)AND THEY SHALL NOT TEACH EVERYONE HIS FELLOW CITIZEN, AND EVERYONE HIS BROTHER, SAYING, ‘KNOW YHVH,’ FOR ALL SHALL KNOW ME, FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST OF THEM. (12) FOR I WILL BE MERCIFUL TO THEIR INIQUITIES, AND I WILL REMEMBER THEIR SINS NO MORE.’As I taught before, YHVH will only write the laws on the hearts of Israel since the house of Judah has been Torah observant all along. It is clear there can be no kingdom of Israel without both the house of Israel and the house of Judah. The Scriptures has been misinterpreted for years and was only recently opened to the minds of some ofthose whom YHVH is calling. The time has come for these truths to be revealed to both houses of Israel at this time.

We have but a short time to ready ourselves, if we want to be part of the 5 virgins who will be ready for our bridegroom Yahshua the Messiah at His return on Yom Teruah in the near future. But as prophesied in Zechariah 14, His return will usher in the kingdom of Elohim, and will only come about after He has put down all opposition to His world-wide rulership as we read from verses 1 – 11, in this way: ‘Behold, a day is coming for YHVH when the spoil taken from you will be divided among you. (2)For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city will be captured, the houses plundered, the women ravished, and half of the city exiled, but the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city. (3)Then YHVH will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle. (4)And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in its middle from east to west by a very large valley, so that half of the mountain will move toward the north and the other half toward the south. (5)And you will flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you will flee just as you fled before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then YHVH, my Elohim, will come, and all the holy ones with Him! (6)And it will come about in that day that there will be no light; the luminaries will dwindle. (7)For it will be a unique day which is known to YHVH, neither day nor night, but it will come about that at evening time there will be light. (8)And it will come about in that day that living waters will flow out of Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and the other half toward the western sea; it will be in summer as well as in winter. (9) And YHVH will be king over all the earth; in that day YHVH will be the only one, and His name the only one. (10)All the land will be changed into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; but Jerusalem will rise and remain on its site from Benjamin’s Gate as far as the place of the First gate to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s wine presses. (11)And people will live in it, and there willbe no more curse, for Jerusalem will dwell in security.

The single most important reason that kept the two houses of Israel separate up to now, was the fact that instead of taking YHVH our Elohim at His word and believe that He is only ONE, and not a trinity as the house of Israel were taught by Churchianity (controlled by Esau) since its inception, will be a major factor in uniting both houses into the commonwealth of Israel before Messiah’s return to rule the world from Jerusalem.A second uniting factor will be for the house of Israel to accept the house of Judah as Elohim’s lawgiver, as is witnessed numerous times in the Scriptures, but especially in Psalm 60: 7(KJV), as follows: ‘Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver.’ Whether we like it or not, we from the lost ten tribes of Israel will have to in the Spirit of Elijah, start teaching our children about the faith of our fathers in the faith including Torah,as we are told by Malachi in the end time prophecy in Malachi 4: 4- 6, in this way: “Remember the law of Moses My servant, even the statutes and ordinances which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel.(5)Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of YHVH. (6) And he will restore the hearts (meaning the faith) of the fathers (in the faith, namely Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse.” In addition we will also have to start cooperating with our Jewish Brothers in Israel and the countries where we reside, to prepare the way for Messiah’s imminent return. Think about it!

[1] The footnote against ‘I AM’ in the New American Standard Version reads: ‘Related to the name of G-d, YHWH rendered LORD, which is derived from the verb HAYAH, to be’.

[2] A (single) human being is composed of a body, a soul and the spirit in man, as witnessed in 1 Thessalonians 5: 23, in this way: ‘Now may the Elohim of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preservedcomplete, without blame at the coming of our Master Yahshua Messiah.’ This is talking about those from the house of Israel who died in Messiah who have been immersed in Messiah’s saving name and been given a portion of Elohim’s Set-apart Spirit, or those from the house of Judah who remain Torah observant until death or when Messiah returns.

[3] Elohim is invisible as witnessed in first Timothy 1: 17, as follows: ‘Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only Elohim, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amein.’

[4] Yahshua is the power of Elohim as witnessed in the Tanach and the Renewed Covenant in this way: (Jeremiah 32: 17): ‘Ah YHVH Elohim! Behold, Thou hast made the heavens and the earth by Thy great power and by Thine outstretched arm! Nothing is too difficult for Thee.’ And first Corinthians 1: 24: ‘But to those who are the called, both Jews and Greeks, Messiah the power of Elohim and the wisdom of Elohim.’

[5] The Set-apart Spirit is the divine nature of Elohim, as may be seen from 2 Peter 1: 4, as follows: ‘For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, in order that by them you might become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust.’

[6] The covenant of promise given to Abraham that he and his descendants will live eternally in the Promised Land (meaning the Kingdom of Elohim) with Messiah being their Shepherd and King David being their King as promised to David, that he will rule eternally over Israel, but also as confirmed in Acts 15: 15 – 18, as follows: “And with this the words of the Prophets agree, just as it is written, AFTER THESE THINGS I WILL RETURN, AND I WILL REBUILD THE TABERNACLE OF DAVID WHICH HAS FALLEN, AND I WILL REBUILD ITS RUINS, AND I WILL RESTORE IT, IN ORDER THAT THE REST OF MANKIND MAY SEEK YHVH, AND ALL THE GENTILES WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME (meaning the lost tribes of Israel), SAYS YHVH, WHO MAKES THESE THINGS KNOWN FROM OF OLD.”

[7] The words ‘far off’ refers to the house of Israel who were scattered throughout the nations in the world because of Idolatry, and was first used in this way by Daniel in a prayer for all Israel in Daniel 9: 7, as follows: “Righteousness belongs to Thee, O Master, but to us open shame, as it is this day—to the men of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem and all Israel, those who are nearby and those who are far away in all the counties to which Thou hast driven them, because of their unfaithful deeds which they have committed against Thee.”
