Lesson 48 Amplified – ANASTASIS

 

ANASTASIS

American: a standing up again, resurrection 

EXANASTASIS

American: arising from death, resurrection 

This is the goal of all who put their faith into Jesus, the Christos [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ] as their only door to everlasting life. 

Almost Greek: (Words in italics are translator’s additions.) 

1st Corinthians15.12: Now, if the Christos kerussetai [proclaimed, heralded] that He was awakened emergent from dead, how can some say in you [Sadducees] that an anastasis of the dead isn’t [doesn't happen]? But if anastasis of the dead isn’t, neither has the Christos been awakened.

 

1st Corinthians15.20: But now, the Christos has been awakened from dead. He was caused to be a beginning of sacrifice [the “first fruits”] of those having been put to sleep for since death is via a man [Adam] and via a Man [Jesus] anastasis of the dead. For as in Adam the whole human race dies, so also, in the Christo all will be made alive but each in his own order [turn]. First the beginning of the sacrifice (the Christos), then comes the telos [the point aimed at, the end of this age], when He surrenders the kingdom to Theos (also the Father); when He [Jesus] katargese [renders entirely idle; useless] all commencement [rank], all privilege [authority] and all dunamin [force, power]. It is right for Him to reign until He [Father] wishes to place all the hateful under His [Jesus’] feet. The last hateful one katargeitai [rendered entirely idle; useless] is Death for He [Father] subordinated all under His [Jesus’] feet.

 

1^st Corinthians 15.40: There are above-the-sky [heavenly] somata [bodies] and worldly somata but different indeed are the above-the-sky glory and the worldly glory. There is the glory of the sun and the different glory of the moon and the different glories of the stars. For star differs from star in glory. So also, is anastasis of the dead. The body is sown in decay; it is awakened in imperishability. It is sown in infamy; it is awakened in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is awakened in dunamei. It is sown a sensual soma; it is awakened a spiritual soma.

 

Luke 20.34: And answering, Jesus said to them, “The sons of this age marry, and daughters are given in marriage but those deemed entirely deserving of that age (to attain anastaseos emergent from dead) neither marry nor are given in marriage for they haven’t to die anymore for they are isaggeloi [like angels] and are sons of Theos; being sons of the anastaseos. 

Acts 2.30: David being then a prophetes [before teller, prophet] and knowing that with an oath sworn to him by Theos, that emergent from the fruit of his loins (down to his flesh), God was going to stand up the Christon to be seated upon His throne. David before seeing this, he spoke concerning the anastaseos of the Christou, that neither was His psuche left down into Haides [Unseen, subterranean world of the dead, Hades] nor did His flesh see decay. 

Matthew 22.29: Now responding, Jesus said to them, “You cause to go astray, not knowing the Graphas [Scriptures, Old Testament] nor the dunamin of Theos for in the anastasei neither do they marry nor are given in marriage; conversely, they are as the aggeloi [messengers, angels] in Ourano [Heaven]. But concerning the anastaseos of the dead, haven’t you read that spoken to you from Theos? saying, ‘I AM the Theos of Abraham and the Theos of Isaac and the Theos of Jacob.’ Theos isn’t Theos of the dead; conversely, of the living.” 

John 5.26: For just as the Father has life in Himself, so He has given to the Son to have life in Himself. The Father has given the Son ezsusian [privilege, authority] to execute krisin [accusation, condemnation, judgment] because He is also a Son of man. Don't marvel at this for the time is coming when all those who are in their tombs shall hear His phones [sound, tone, noise, voice] and they will come out; those having done good to an anastasin of life; those having practiced psaula [foul, wicked] to an anastasin of kriseos and their sentence.” 

DANIEL 12.2: … many of those sleeping in the dust of the earth shall awake; some to eternal life and some to reproach and eternal loathing. 

Revelation 20.4: And I saw thrones and they that sat down upon them, and krima [deciding, rendering judgment, bringing a verdict] was given to them. And the psuchas [souls, lives, psyches, egos] of those having been beheaded via their testimony of Jesus and via the Logon [Word] of Theos and which same not prosekunesan [had worshiped, as a dog licks his master's hand] the beast nor its eikona [image, likeness, statue, icon] and hadn’t received the charagma [scratch, etching, tattoo, scar, mark; microchip?] upon their forehead and [nor] upon their hand and they lived and reigned amidst the Christou for a thousand years. But the rest of the dead [those in Hell?] didn't recover life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first anastasis. Supremely blest and hagios [holy, sacred, consecrated] is the one having a share in the first anastasis. Over these, the second death hasn't authority but, conversely, they will be priests of Theos and of the Christou and will reign amidst Him for a thousand years.

Lesson 47 Amplified – EUCHARISTIA

 

EUCHARISTIA

American: gratefully giving thanks 

EUCHARISTEO

American: express gratitude, give thanks 

EUCHARISTOS

American: grateful, thankful 

There is only one appropriate state of mind for the resident of the Kingdom of God -- gratefulness. If we lose sight of the wondrous gift of Theos to us, we may develop negative attitudes. 

Almost Greek: (Words in italics are translator’s additions.) 

Romans 14.4: Who are you krinon [distinguishing, judging, putting on trial] another’s servant? To his own Kurio [Lord, Master], he stands or falls but he will stand for Theos is dunatos [forceful, powerful] enough to make him stand. Indeed, one krinei [judges] a day above another day; one krinei every day alike. Let each be completely convinced in his own nous [intellect, mind, understanding]; he observing the day, observes to the Kurio; he not observing, not observes to the Kurio. He eating meat, he eats to the Kurio; he eucharistei to Theos for the food. He not eating meat, not eats to the Kurio and eucharistei to Theos. 

Colossians 1.9: Via this [From the day we heard], we also don’t pause [stop] proseuchomenoi [humbly begging, praying] to Theos over you and asking that you be made replete [complete] in recognition of His thelematos [determination, choice, decision, decree] in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. And that you be made to walk appropriately of the Kuriou, compliant to all in every good work; that you are being fertile and growing into the recognition of Theos in all dunamei [force, power], being empowered [enabled] down [according] to the great vigor of His glory to all a hupomonen [cheerful endurance] and makrothumian [forbearing, patiently restraining]; that you amidst joy eucharistountes [are gratefully giving thanks] to the Father to qualify us to the portion of the lot [as in drawing by lot] of the hagion [holy ones, sacred ones, consecrated ones, saints] in the Light. He Who rescued us emergent from the authority of shadiness and transferred us into the Kingdom of the Son of His agapes. He in Whom we have redemption via His blood; the freedom of [from] hamartion [misses of the mark or goal; errors, offenses, sins]. He Who is the eikon [image, likeness, statue, icon] of the invisible Theos, the firstborn of all creation because in Him all was created: the things in the ouranois [skys, heavens] and the things upon the earth; the seen [visible] and the invisible, 

Colossians 3.12: Accordingly, dress yourself in the manner of the chosen of Theos: hagioi and egapemenoi [unconditionally loved], splen [spleen, guts, bowels, sympathy] of pity, chrestoteta [usefulness], humility, gentleness, forbearance; enduring one another and forgiving yourselves. In case anyone (toward any) has a complaint, just as (in fact) the Christos forgave you, so also should you. Above all these things, put on agapen which is the perfect bond. Let the peace of Theos rule in your hearts (to which indeed you were called in one somati [body]) and be eucharistoi. Let the Logos [Word] of the Christou [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ] copiously dwell in you, teaching and nouthetountes [calling attention to, warning, cautioning, admonishing] yourselves in psalmois [psalms], humnos [hymns] and pneumatikais odais [spiritual songs] in your hearts in chariti [thankfullness] to the Kurio. Everything, whatever you do in logos or in work, do all in the name [authority] of the Kuriou Jesus. Eucharistountes via Him to our Theos and Father. 

Luke 22.14: And when the hour came, He reclined and the twelve mathetai [learners, pupils, disciples] reclined with Him. And He said to them, “With longing, I wanted to eat this Passover Meal amidst you before the time for Me to suffer for I say unto you that no longer (not in no way) will I eat emergent from it until (when) it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of Theos.” And receiving the cup [that was always set at the Passover Meal for the Messiah or Anointed One], euchariste [having expressed gratitude, having given thanks] to Theos, He said, “Take this and thoroughly divide it up among yourselves for I say to you that not (in no way) will I drink from the produce of the vine until (when) the Kingdom of Theos comes.” And receiving a loaf, euchariste to Theos, He broke it and gave to them, saying, “This is My soma [body] being given over you. Do this to My remembrance.” And in the same way the cup (amidst having dined), saying, “This cup is the New Covenant (in My blood) being poured out over you." 

Ephesians 4: Now, the Hagios Pneuma distinctly says that (in later times) some will desist from the pisteos [faith], paying attention to vagrant pneumasi [spirits] and teachings of demons. In pseudologon [lying] hupokrisei [deceit, hypocrisy], having their conscience cauterized, they are barring marriage and advocating abstaining from foods which Theos made to participation amidst eucharistias by those pistois [faithful] and recognizing the truth. For every creation of Theos is kalon [beautiful, virtuous] and not even one thing is to be cast off. Having been received amidst euchariston, it is hagiazetai [made holy] via the Logou of Theos and enteuxis [supplication, prayer]. 

End of Forty-seventh Lesson

Lesson 46 Amplified – PROSEUCHE

 

PROSEUCHE

American meaning: humble begging of God; praying

Hebrew Aramaic: tephillah 

PROSEUCHOMAI

to humbly beseech God; to pray

Hebrew Aramaic: palal 

We are all urged, throughout the New Blood Covenant, to pray! 

Almost Greek: (Words in italics are translator’s additions.) 

1st Thessalonians 1.2: We [Paul] always eucharistoumen [gratefully give thanks] to Theos concerning you all, continually making mention of you in our proseuchon, remembering your work of pistis [faith, reliance], draining effort of agape [unconditional love] and the cheerful endurance of our Kurios Jesus, the Christos [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ], before our Theos and Father; knowing your election, brothers, you having been egapemenois [unconditionally loved] by Theos. 

1st Thessalonians 5.12: Brothers! We ask you eidenai [to know, to perceive] those laboring among you (presiding over you in the Kurios, admonishing you) and eleistha [to deem, to consider, to esteem] them most exceedingly in agape because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves! We parakaloumen [call near, invite, urge, exhort, encourage] you, brothers, noutheteite [to put in mind, to caution, to warn] the insubordinate, console the faint-hearted, care for the weak, be longsuffering toward all. See that NOT even one person returns kakon [worthless] for kakou [worthless] to anyone but always pursue the good both toward one another and toward all. Always rejoice! Continually proseuchesthe! Eucharisteite [Gratefully give thanks] in all for this is the thelema [determination, choice, decision, decree] of Theos (in Jesus, the Christos) to you. Don’t quench the Hagios Pneuma! Don’t despise propheteia! [inspired speech, prophesy] Test everything; firmly hold the kalos [beautiful, virtuous]; keep back from every form of ponerou [hurtful]. 

1st Corinthians 14.12: So also, you, since you are zelotai [zealous ones, zealots] of the spiritual to the building up of the ekklesias [assembly, church], seek interpretation in order that you may superabound. Therefore, let him, speaking in a glosse tongue, language], proseuchestho in order that he may be able to dierueneue [thoroughly explain, interpret]. For if I proseuchomai in a glosse, my pneumati [spirit] proseuchomai but my nous [intellect, mind, understanding] is empty. Then, what is to be? I will proseuchomai with the [my] pneumati and I will also proseuchomai with the [my] nous. I sing with the [my] pneumati and I also sing with the [my] nous. 

Philippians 4.4: Always chairete [be cheerful, rejoice] in the Kurio! Again, I will say, CHAIRETE! Let your propriety [decorum] be known to all men. The Kurios is near. Not be anxious about even one thing! Conversely, in everything (by proseuche and deesei [petition, request, prayer] amid eucharistias [gratefully giving thanks] to Him, let your requests be made known to Theos. Also, the peace of Theos which surpasses all intellect [understanding] will be the vanguard [scout, guide] of your hearts and your minds in Jesus, the Christo. 

Luke 11: And it was caused to be, in His being in a certain place proseuchomenon, as He stopped, one of His matheton [learners, pupils, disciples] said to Him, “Kurie! teach us to proseuchesthai, just as John bar Zekaryahuw taught his mathetas.” Now, He said to them, “Whenever you proseuchesthe, say: Our Father, the One in the Ouranois [Heavens]! Your Name hagiastheto [make holy God]! Make Your Kingdom come. Cause Your thelema [determination, choice, decision, decree] to be as in Ourano, so also upon the earth. Give us down to day by day our needed bread. And aphes [send forth, forsake, forgive] us our hamartias [misses of the mark or goal, errors, offences, sins] for we ourselves also apheilonti all indebted to us. And not carry us into testing, conversely, rescue us from the ponerou [hurtful one].”

Lesson 45 Amplified – PROPHETEIA

 

PROPHETEIA

American: inspired speech, prophesy 

PROPHETEUO

American: before tell, speak under inspiration 

singular: PROPHETES -- plural: PROPHETAI

American singular: before teller, prophet -- plural: before tellers, prophets 

PROPHETIKOS

American: prophetic 

Paul considers this class of words to be of paramount importance. Why? Because we who dwell within the Kingdom of Theos [Father God] wait, with bated breath, to hear a fresh rhema [utterance] from Theos. 

Almost Greek:(Words in italics are translator’s additions.) 

1st Thessalonians 5.12: Brothers! We ask you eidenai [know, perceive] those laboring among you (presiding over you in the Kurios, admonishing you) and eleistha [deem, consider, esteem] them most exceedingly in agape because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves! We parakaloumen [call near, invite, urge, exhort, encourage] you, brothers, noutheteite [put in mind, caution, warn] the insubordinate, console the faint-hearted, care for the weak, be longsuffering toward all. See that NOT even one person returns kakon [worthless] for kakou [worthless] to anyone but always pursue the good both toward one another and toward all. Always rejoice! Continually proseuchesthe [humbly beg God, pray]! Eucharisteite [Gratefully give thanks] in all for this is the thelema [determination, choice, decision, decree] of Theos (in Jesus, the Christos [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ]) to you. Don’t quench the Hagios Pneuma! Don’t despise propheteia! Test everything; firmly hold the kalos [beautiful, virtuous]; keep back from every form of ponerou [hurtful]. 

Romans 16.25: Now, to the One capable of sterichan [securely setting, making one steadfast], down to my euaggelion [good news, gospel, evangel] and the kerugma [proclamation] of Jesus, the Christou, down to the revelation of the musteriou [secrets, mysteries], having been kept secret for eternal past ages but now revealed via prophetikon writings, made known down to the command of the eternal Theos, to obedience of pisteos to all the ethne, [nations, races, non-Jews, Gentiles] the sole wise Theos; to Whom (via Jesus, the Christou) be glory to the ages. Amen! 

Acts 2.14: But Rock (standing with the eleven) raised up his phonen [sound, tone, noise, voice] and plainly enunciated [declared] to them, “Men! Jews! and all those inhabiting Jerusalem, let this be known to you and take into your ear [listen to] my rhemata [utterance]. For these men aren’t intoxicated as you assume for it is merely the third hour of the day [9 AM]. But this is THAT even being spoken via the prophetou Joel: ‘And it shall be in the final days,’ says Theos, ‘I will pour forth (from My Pneuma) upon all flesh and your sons and daughters propheteusousin [will before tell, will speak under inspiration, will prophesy] and your youths will stare (wide-eyed) at visions and your elders will dream dreams. And in those days (upon My male slaves and upon My female slaves), I will pour forth from My Pneuma and they also propheteusousi. And I will give terata [wonders, miracles] in the ourano [sky, heavens] above and semeia [signs, indications] upon the earth below; blood and fire and mist of smoke. The sunshine will be changed to shadowiness [an eclipse] and the moon into blood [an eclipse] prior to the coming of the megalen [big, large, huge, great] and notable Day of the Kuriou. And it shall be that all (whoever epikalesetai [calls out to, appeals to, invokes] the name [authority] of the Kuriou) sothesetai [will be rescued, will be saved].’” 

JOEL 2.28: “… afterward It will be, I will pour forth My Ruwach [Pneuma] upon all flesh. Your sons and your daughters will naba [prophetueo]. Your old will dream dreams. Your youths will see visions. And in those days (on both My male slaves and My female slaves), I will pour forth My Ruwach. I will give mopheth [terata] in the sky and on the earth; blood and fire and timarah [pillars, columns] of smoke. The sun will be turned over to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and awesome Day of YHWH. For it will be that all who qara [epikalesetai: call out to, appeal to, invoke] the name of YHWH will malat [be smooth, slippery, escape] for in Mount Tsijon [Zion] and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance,” as YHWH has said, “and deliverance among the survivors to whom YHWH shall call out.” 

Acts 21.8: And having entered the house of Philip the Euaggelistou [preacher of the good news; evangelist], the same being emergent from [one of] the seven original diakonoi [waiters, attendants, servants, deacons], we stayed near [with] the same. Now, to this one were four unmarried daughters who propheteuousai [were before tellers, were speaking under inspiration, were prophesying]. Now, we staying some more days, a certain prophetes came down from Judea, by name Agabus. And coming toward us and requesting Paul’s belt, binding both his hands and his feet, he said, “These words says the Hagios Pneuma, ‘In Jerusalem, the same way will the Judaeans bind the man whose belt this is and will surrender him into the hands of the ethnon.’” Now, when we heard these words, both we and the residents begged the same [Paul] not to go up into Jerusalem. 

2^nd Peter 1.18: We heard this phone being borne emergent from Ouranou [Heaven], being with Him in the hagio mountain [Mount of Olives]. We hold more firmly the prophetikon logon [word] to which you do well to pay attention as to a light shining in a murky place until that day breaks through [dawns] and the Phosphorus [Light-Bearer] is caused to arise in your hearts, knowing (first of all) that NO propheteia of Graphes [Scripture, Old Testament] came into being by self-interpretation. For never by the thelemati of man was propheteia borne but it was being borne by the Hagios Pneuma via Whom the hagioi men of Theos spoke. 

Matthew 10.40: [Jesus speaking] He, receiving you, receives Me and he receiving Me receives the One sending out Me. He, receiving a propheten, in the name of a propheten will receive the wages of a propheten. And he, receiving a dikaion [equitable, just, right] one in the name of a dikaion one, will receive the wages of a dikaion one. And whoever furnishes drink to one of these mikron [small, little, tiny, micro] ones (merely a cup of cold water) in the name of a mathetou [learner, pupil, disciple], Amen! I say to you, not (in no way) will he utterly destroy his wages.”

Lesson 44 Amplified – AMEN

 

AMEN

From Greek to American: firmly, surely, so be it

Hebrew Aramaic: to American: surely, truly, certainly, so be it 

The first mention of “Amen” in the Bible is in Numbers 5.22. The Koine Greek transliteration of the Hebrew Aramaic is the same -- “Amen”. 

Numbers 5.22: And the ishshah [woman] shall say Amen, Amen. 

Almost Greek: (Words in italics are translator’s additions.) 

2nd Corinthians 1.18: But Theos is pistos [trustworthy, faithful] that our [my] logos [word] to you wasn’t caused to be “Yes” and “No.” For the Son of Theos, Jesus, the Christos [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ], the One in you via us [me]; keruchtheis [proclaimed, heralded] via me, Silvanus [in Latin: “Wood”; in American: “Silas”] and Timotheos [in Greek: “Dear to God”; in American: “Timothy”] wasn’t caused to be “Yes” and “No”; conversely, “Yes” was caused to be in Him. For as many as are the kerugma [proclamations] of Theos, in Him is the “Yes” and in Him is the “Amen” toward glory to Theos via us. For as many as are the kerugma [a proclamation] of Theos, in Him is the “Yes” and in Him is the “Amen” toward glory to Theos via us. 

Romans 1.24: Therefore, Theos also surrendered them (in the lusts of their hearts) to impurity in order that their somata [bodies] be rendered infamous in themselves, who exchanged the truth of Theos for the lie and venerated and served the creation rather than the Creator, Who is adorable to the ages. Amen!” 

Luke 12.35 “Let your loins be girdled [belted] and your lamp lit, and you will be like men awaiting their kurion, when he departs emergent from the nuptials in order that he coming and knocking, they will immediately open to him. Supremely blest are those slaves whom the kurios coming, will find awake. Amen! I say to you, that he will gird himself and will cause them to recline and coming up to them, he will serve them. And if he comes in the second watch [between 9 PM and midnight] or if he even comes in the third watch [between midnight and 3 AM] and find it so, supremely blest are those slaves. 

Luke 18.15: Now, they also brought towards Him infants in order that He might touch them. Now seeing this, the mathetai admonished them but Jesus summoned them to Him, saying, “Aete [allow, permit] the children to come to Me and not estop them for truly of this sort is the Kingdom of Theos. Amen! I say to you, whoever not receives the Kingdom of Theos in the manner of a child not (in no way) enters into it.”

Luke 18.28: Now, Rock said, “LO! we went forth from [left] everything and accompanied You.” Now, He said to all of them, “Amen! I say to you that there isn’t even one man (who has gone forth from house or parents or brothers or gunaika [woman, wife] or children because of the Kingdom of Theos) who shan’t fully receive many more in this time and in the coming age, eternal life.” 

Luke 21.29: And He told them a parable: “You see the fig tree and all the trees. When they sprout (observe for yourselves), you know that (even now) summer is near. Thus, also, when you see these events being caused to be, know that the Kingdom of Theos is near. Amen! I say to you that not (in no way) will this generation pass away until all shall have been caused to be. The ouranos [sky, heavens] and the earth will pass away but My logoi not (in no way) will pass away.” 

Luke 23.39: But one of the hanged wrongdoers eblasphemei [spoke irreverently, spoke profanely; blasphemed] Him, saying, “If You are the Christos, soson [make safe, save] Yourself and also us.” But answering, the other wrongdoer admonished him, saying,“You not even fear Theos because we are under the same sentence? and we in fact justly. We receive suitable for what we practiced but He not practiced even one thing amiss.” And he said to Jesus, “Kurie! remember me whenever You come into Your Kingdom.” And Jesus said to him, “Amen! I say to you, on this day (amidst Me), you will be in paradeiso [Paradise].” 

James 5.19: Brothers! in case anyone in you is caused to stray from the truth and someone reverses him, know this, that the one reversing an hamartolon [misser of the mark or goal, one erring, one offending, one sinning] emergent from the fraudulence of his way, sosei [will make safe, will save] his psuchen [soul, life, psyche, ego] emergent from death and will cover up a fullness [crowd] of hamartion. Amen! 

Mark 3.27: Not even one man isn’t able, having entered the house of a powerful man, to plunder his goods, unless he first binds the powerful man and then he will plunder his house. Amen! I say to you that all the hamarotemata of the sons of men will be apheimi [sent forth, forsaken, forgiven] and whatever much blasphemiai they have blasphemesosin but whoever blasphemmese into the Hagios Pneuma, he hasn’t pardon to the age; conversely, he is liable to a perpetual judgment.” (He said this because they said, “He [Jesus] has an impure pneuma.”) 

Mark 8.11: And Pharisees issued forth and began to debate with Him, seeking a semeion [sign, indication] near [from] Him (from Ouranou [Heaven]), testing Him. And deeply sighing in His Pneumati [breath, spirit], He says, “Why searches this generation for a semeion? Amen! I say to you, this generation if will [won’t] be given a semeion!” 

Matthew 26.73: Now, after a micron of time, those standing by approaching, said to Rock, “Amen! you also are emergent from the Same for even your lalia [tongue, speech, dialect] makes you clear.” Then is when he began to curse and swear, “I not know the Man!” 

John 1.49: Nathaniel said to Him, “Rabbi! You are the Son of Theos! You are the King of Israel!” Jesus answered, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you have pisteueis in Me? You will see greater sights than these. Amen! Amen! I tell you, you will see Ouranon opened and the aggelous [messengers, angels] of Theos ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.” 

Revelation 1.7: LO! He comes amidst the cloudiness and every eye will gaze (with wide open eyes) upon the Same and [as well as] those who nailed the Same and all the offshoots [cultures] of the earth will chop [pound the breast in grief] over the Same. Yes! Amen! 

Revelation 1.17: And when I saw the Same [Jesus], I fell forward (to His feet) as if dead. And He laid His right hand upon me, saying to me, “Not fear! I AM the First and the Last and the living One! And I was caused to be dead and LO! I AM living to the ages of the ages. Amen! And I hold the keys of Hadou [Haides: Unseen, subterranean world of the dead, Hades] and of death.” 

Revelation 3.14: “And to the aggelo of the ekklesias [assembly, church] in Laodicea, write: ‘These words says the Amen; the pistos and truthful Witness, the Chief of the Creation of Theos:

Lesson 43 Amplified – OURANOS

                                                             OURANOS -- OURANOI

American singular: elevation, the heavens, the sky, aloft -- plural: the skies, the heavens

Hebrew Aramaic or Chaldee singular: shameh -- plural: shamayim 

OURANOS -- OURANOI

American singular: Heaven -- plural: Heavens, Heavenlies

Hebrew Aramaic or Chaldee singular: Shamayin -- plural: Shamayim 

Capitalizing these words makes them refer to Heaven; the location of the City of God that is described in Revelation. 

Almost Greek: (Words in italics are translator’s additions.) 

1^st Thessalonians 4.13: I don’t want you to be ignorant with respect to those sleeping [having passed on], lest you grieve as also the rest do, not having elpis [expectation, hope]. For if we pisteuo [put our faith in] that Jesus died and stood up again, so Theos will also bring with Him [Jesus] those who have been put to sleep via Jesus. For this we say to you (in a logos [word] of the Kurios), that we (remaining living until the coming of the Kurios) not (in no way) may go ahead of those having been put to sleep because the Kurios Himself will descend from the ouranos in a rallying cry in the phone [sound, tone, noise, voice] of an archaggelos [chief messenger, chief angel] and with a trumpet of Theos. And first the dead in the Christos [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ] will stand up again, then the living will be caught up together with them (in the cloudiness) to a meeting of the Kurios in the air. And so, we will always be with the Kurios. So also comfort one another with these logoi. 

1^st Corinthians 15.45: So also, it has been written, “The first man, Adam, was caused to be into a living psuche [soul, life, psyche, ego].”

 

GENESIS 2.7: YHWH Elohiym [Triune God] formed Adam of dust from the ground and blew into his nostrils neshamah [breath] of life and Adam was caused to be a living nephesh [psuche].

 

{Corinthians cnt.} The final Adam [Jesus] was caused to be into a life-giving Pneuma [breath, spirit]. Conversely, the spiritual body not firstly came but the sensual; thereafter came the spiritual. The first man was emergent from the soil, earthly; the second Man (the Kurios) was emergent from Ouranou. As is the dirty man, so also are the dirty ones. And as is the above-the-sky [Heavenly] Man, so also are the above-the-sky ones. And as we bore the eikon [image, likeness, statue, icon] of the dirty man, we shall also bear the eikona of the above-the-sky Man.

 

2^nd Corinthians 12: Indeed, to boast is not advantageous to me. I will go on to visions and revelations of the Kuriou. I know a man [Paul] in the Christo, who fourteen years ago (whether in his somati [body] or outside his somatos I not know, Theos knows), this man was snatched to the third Ouranou. I know that this man [Paul] (whether inside his soma or outside his soma, I not know, Theos knows) was snatched to Paradeison [Paradise] and heard unspeakable rhemai [utterances] which it isn’t right for a man to speak. Over this I will boast but over myself I won’t boast, except in my feebleness.

 

Romans 10.6: But the dikaiosune [equity, justification, rightness] emergent from pisteos [faith] says thus, “Not say in your heart, ‘Who will go up to Ouranon?’ that is to lead down the Christon or ‘Who will descend to the abussos [depthless, bottomless, abyss]?’ that is to lead up the Christon from among the dead.”

 

DEUTERONOMY 30.11: [Moses speaking] “For this command which I command you today is not too pala [difficult] for you and it isn’t too remote [far off]. It isn’t in the Shamayin such that you should say, ‘Who shall ascend to the Shamayin and get it for us and cause us intelligently to listen to it in order that we may do it?' And it isn’t beyond the Mediterranean Sea such that you should say, ‘Who will go around to the region beyond the Sea and take it for us intelligently to listen in order that we may do it?’ For the dabar [logos] is very near to you, in your mouth and in your heart in order that you may do it.”

 

Colossians 1.14: He in Whom we have redemption via His blood; the freedom of [from] hamartion [misses of the mark or goal; errors, offenses, sins]. He Who is the eikon of the invisible Theos, the firstborn of all creation because in Him all was created: the things in the ouranois and the things upon the earth; the seen [visible] and the invisible, whether thrones or lordships or rank or authorities. All has been created via Him and to Him and He IS before the birth of the whole of creation and all is presented in Him. Also, He is the Head of the somatos [body], the ekklesias [assembly, church]. 

Luke 3.21: Now, it was caused to be that in the baptisthenai [immersion, submersion, baptism] of all the people, Jesus also was being baptisthentos by John and was proseuchoumenou [humbly begging God, praying] and the ouranon was opened up and the Hagios Pneuma came down upon Him in somatiko [bodily] form as a pigeon [dove] and a phone was caused to be emergent from the ouranou, saying, “You ARE My Son, the Agapetos [unconditionally Beloved]. I AM proud of You.”

Lesson 42 Amplified – ORGE & THUMOS

         Now we address the anger of Father God. Two Koine Greek words are used in the New Testament for this negative emotion. 

                                                                       ORGE

American singular: violent passion, fury, rage, wrath

Hebrew singular: zaam, chemah, chema 

THUMOS, THUMOI

American singular: passion, anger, indignation -- plural: passions, angers, indignations

Hebrew singular: aph 

Clearly the former is more violent than the latter. The following excerpts display the distinctions. 

Almost Greek: (Words in italics are translator’s additions.) 

1^st Thessalonians 5.9: For Theos not placed us prostrate into orge but for acquisition of soteria [rescue, safety, salvation] via our Kurios Jesus, the Christos [Anointed One, Messiah, Christ], the One having died on our behalf in order that whether we keep awake [live] or we sleep [die], we may live together with Him. 

Romans 1.18: For the orge of Theos (from Ouranou [Heaven]) is uncovered upon all impiety and injustice of men suppressing the truth in injustice because the well-known truth concerning Theos is shining [apparent] in them for Theos revealed it to them. 

Romans 2.5: But because of your skleroteta [callous, hard] and impenitent heart, you are accumulating for yourself orgen in a day of orges and a revelation of the dikaiokarisias [right judgment] of Theos, Who will give to each one down [according] to his work. Theos will give to those in fact by cheerful endurance in good work (seeking glory, timen [value, esteem] and incorruptibility [immortality]), eternal life but to those emergent from intrigue (even in fact willfully disbelieving the truth but approving injustice), He gives thumos and orge. There will be stress and calamity for every psuche [soul, life, psyche, ego] of man working totally kakon [the worthless], (firstly for the Jew and also for the Greek) but glory, time [value, esteem] and peace for everyone working good (firstly for the Jew and also for the Greek) for there isn’t partiality with Theos. 

Romans 9.22: What if Theos thelon [determined, chose, decided, decreed] to display orgen and to make His dunaton [force, power] known, endured in much forbearance vessels of orges (having been thoroughly completed toward destruction) and did so in order that He might display the wealth of His glory upon vessels of compassion which He prepared in advance for glory, whom He also called; us, not only emergent from Jews, conversely, also emergent from the ethnon [nations, races, non-Jews, Gentiles]. 

Romans 12.19: Not avenge yourselves, agapetoi [unconditionally beloved]; conversely, give place [space, room] for the orge of Theos for it has been written, “Revenge belongs to Me. I will repay,” says the Kurios. 

DEUTERONOMY 32.35 [YHWH] “... Revenge belongs to Me and recompense.” 

Romans 13: Let every psuche be subordinate [subject] to superior [higher] authorities for there isn’t authority, if not from Theos but the existing authorities exist due to having been arranged [instituted] under Theos. So too, the one opposing authority opposes the arrangement [institution] of Theos and those having opposed Him will receive a krima [decision, judgment rendered, verdict] to themselves. Rulers aren’t a cause of fears to those doing good works, but they are to the kakon [worthless]. Now, do you want not to fear authority? Do good and you will have praise emergent from the same for he is a servant of Theos for good to you but in case you do kakon, do fear! for he NOT eike [idly, vainly] wears the sword for he is a servant of Theos, a punisher to orgen of the one practicing kakon. Because of this, it is necessary to be in subjection, not merely because of orgen, conversely, because of conscience. 

Colossians 3.5: Accordingly, make your limbs [members] upon the earth dead to porneian [depravity], impurity, pathos [passion], lust, kakia [worthlessness] and avarice which is idolatry for which activities the orge of Theos is coming upon the sons of apeitheias [willful disbelief]. 

Hebrews 3.7: Therefore, the Hagios Pneuma says, “Today if you hear His voice, don’t harden your hearts, as in the provocation in the day of the temptation in the wasteland, when your forefathers tempted Me (testing Me) and saw My works for forty years. Therefore, I was prosochthisa [vexed, annoyed] with that generation and I said, ‘They always err in their heart, and they didn’t know My ways,’ so I swore in My orge, ‘They shan’t enter into My katapausin [rest].’” 

PSALM 95.7: “Today if you will hear His voice, don’t harden your hearts as in Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the wasteland, when your forefathers tempted Me. They tested Me and saw My work for forty years. I was disgusted with that generation and said, ‘They are a people who vacillate in their heart, and they don’t know My road [ways],’ to whom I swore in My zaam, ‘If shall [Not shall] they enter into My rest.’” 

Hebrews 4.2: For we, those pisteussantes [having faith], enter into the rest even as He said, “As I swore in My orge, ‘They shan’t enter into My rest,’” 

PSALM 95.10: “For forty years I was disgusted with that generation and said, ‘They are a people who err in their heart, and they don’t know My [Father God’s] ways, to whom I swore in my aph, ‘If they shall [They shan’t] enter into My rest.’” 

Ephesians 5.3: Not let porneia nor all [any] impurity nor greediness be named in you (as is fitting for hagiois) nor filthiness nor foolish speaking nor joking, the not becoming, but rather eucharistia [gratefully giving thanks] to Theos. For be knowing this, that every [not any] pornos or [nor] impure one or [nor] greedy one (who is an idolater), not has inheritance in the Kingdom of the Christou and of Theos. Not let even one man deceive you with empty logois [words] for via these actions comes the orge of Theos upon the sons of disobedience.
