 Torah: Exodus 27:20 – 30:10

Oil for the Menorah
Exodus 27:20-21 “And you shall command the
children of Israel that they bring you pure oil of
pressed olives for the light, to cause the lamp to
burn continually. In the tabernacle of meeting,
outside the veil which is before the Testimony,
Aaron and his sons shall tend it from evening
until morning before Yahweh. It shall be a statute
forever to their generations on behalf of the
children of Israel.”

Oil for the Menorah
 Olive oil is derived from olive trees. Wild olive trees
called oleaster grow throughout most of the
Mediterranean countries and bear little fruit.
 Domesticated olive trees belong to the family of olea
europaea flowering flora, of which jasmine and lilac are
also members. There are hundreds of varieties of olives,
and like the grape, the climate and soil in which the trees
are grown determine whether the olives they produce will
be pressed for oil or used in eating.

Oil for the Menorah
 The culturing of olive trees requires the patience of
generations of agriculturists.
 The olive tree is green and non-deciduous, with a gray
trunk that appears wrinkled and knotty.
 An olive tree takes twenty-five to fifty years to mature;
however it begins to give fruit six to eight years after
planting.
 This evergreen tree stands anywhere from ten to fifty feet
high.
 The average tree will yield about twenty-two pounds of
olives during harvest and the best yields are often from
mature trees exceeding two hundred and fifty years of
age.

Oil for the Menorah
 The leaves of the olive tree live for about three years
before dying to make way for new leaves.
 Olive leaves are paired opposite each other down the
branches. They are single and undivided, rather like a
willow leaf, lance-shaped, shiny, and leathery.

Oil for the Menorah
 An olive tree blooms in late spring with clusters of white
flowers. Depending on the variety, there can be
anywhere from ten to over forty flowers in a cluster, but
only one in every twenty flowers will become an olive.
Olive trees are self-pollinating by means of the wind.

Oil for the Menorah
 Olive trees prefer a hilly terrain and grow best at one to
two thousand feet above sea level in lime soil. These
trees are small, with deep roots, thirsty, with small olives
and pits, and a high content of oil particles. In early
autumn and spring the soil in the groves is plowed and
weeded, and the trees pruned. Pruning is most important
and is labor intensive. You must thin the growth on the
crown of the tree so the fruit-bearing branches can be
exposed to the sun and air.

Oil for the Menorah
 There is not one part of this perpetual tree that a person
cannot utilize. Olive trees are resilient– they do not die of
neglect, need little water, and produce for decades.
 During the winter, a tree handpicked by shaking or
beating the branches can yield two to four pints of olive
oil, thus the finished product is expensive. Olives yield
about twenty percent of their weight to oil.
 Some olive trees live to be more than two thousand years
old, however the average is two hundred years.

Oil for the Menorah
 the very ripe and oil-filled olives, after having been
picked, when slightly bruised or pressed (before being
crushed by mortar stones in a mill) will express the
purest, most flavourful and highest quality oil. This oil that
flows spontaneously with little or no application of force is
called the mother drop.
 only the purest oil could be used for the lamp
(menorah)—the purest of the pure! This was obtained by
slightly pressing the very ripe olives, but without crushing
them. A minute quantity of oil would be squeezed out—
only a drop or so—from each olive. This oil was more
pure than any of the other oil subsequently obtained via

Matthew 25:1-10 “Then the kingdom of heaven [the
Messianic term of Yahweh in the flesh, Yeshua; as well
as a term for the Messianic/millennial Era also known as
the 7000th year, which we are in today] shall be likened
to ten virgins [references to believers; also to the ten lost
tribes of Israel returning to walk in the ways of Yeshua
and thirdly to the whole House of Israel] who took their
lamps [symbol for looking into the Word of Yahweh], and
went out to meet the bridegroom [their Messiah]. Now
five of them were wise, and five were foolish. [Wise
represents believers walking in the principles of their
Marriage Covenant given at Mount Sinai. The
foolish/unwise represent believers knowing the ways of
the principles but not walking faithfully after them or
honoring their Marriage Covenant]. Those who were
foolish took their lamps no oil with them, but the wise
took oil in their vessels with their lamps.”

Sons of Fresh Oil
 oil is what is produced by a believer’s thoughts, heart,
walk and lifestyle as relates to obedience in Yeshua’s
commandments.
 Five is a reference to the five books of Moses. The five
wise virgins represent believers with an adequate supply
of oil or those who live in accordance with the
testimony/Covenant of Moses and walk after the Spirit of
Yeshua obeying His Word.
 The five unwise virgins represent believers who lack
enough oil in their walk or who, over time, neglected to
appropriate Yeshua’s words into their hearts and
lifestyles.
 It is a commandment to keep the oil in the lamp burning
perpetually.
 Yeshua is the only oil that produces the light for the
menorah. Torah and the commandments on their own
cannot produce oil therefore there will be a lack of light.
Only when Yeshua and Torah come together in a

Zechariah 4:11-14 “Then I answered and said to him,
‘What are these two olive trees - at the right of the
lampstand/menorah and at its left?’ And I further
answered and said to him, ‘What are these two olive
branches that drip into the receptacles of the two gold
pipes from which the golden oil drains?’ Then he
answered me and said, ‘Do you not know what these
are?’ And I said, ‘No, my lord.’ So he said, ‘These are the
two anointed ones [House of Israel and the House of
Judah], who stand beside the Lord of the whole earth’”

Sons of Fresh Oil
“Now while the bridegroom was delaying [preparing a place
for the bride], all the virgins got drowsy and began to
sleep” (Matthew 25:5).
 Sleep is a reference to a believer having the
principles/Torah but not appropriating them into the
lifestyle or walk, thus Scripture references them as one
who is sleeping.
 the Bride is to be watchful and to keep her lamp burning
continually. The decorations on the lampstand/menorah
in the tabernacle were fashioned after the almond
blossom, shaqad, which means watchful or sleepless.
 Thus to keep our menorah burning oil continuously
reminds us we are to remain active in His word and not
be found sleeping so our lamp does not go out

“And at midnight a cry was heard [reference to the sound the trumpet
makes when proclaiming an announcement. the trumpet was used
to proclaim the first sighting of the New Moon/Rosh Chodesh at the
beginning of the seventh month but primarily to announce the Feast
of Blowing/Yom Teruah, which falls on the first day of the seventh
month. It is this Feast that declares…] ‘Behold, the bridegroom is
coming; go out to meet him!’ [On this Feast of Blowing/Yom Teruah
the doors open to allow the Bride and Groom to enter] Then all
those virgins [believers] arose, and trimmed their lamps
[menorahs]. And the foolish [believers] said to the wise [believers],
‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ But the wise
[believers] answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough
for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for
yourselves.’ And while they [foolish believers] went to buy [oil], the
bridegroom came, and those [wise believers] who were ready
went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. [The
doors close on the next feast ten days later called the Day of
Atonement/Yom Kippur – the Bride’s wedding day] Afterward the
other virgins [unwise believers] came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord,

Luke 13:25-28 “When once the Master of the house has
risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside
and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’
and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you,
where you are from,’ then you will begin to say, ‘We ate
and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.
But He will say, I tell you I do not know you, where you are
from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity. There
will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see
Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the
kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust out.’”

Revelation 22:12-15 “And behold, I am coming quickly, and
My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his
work. I am the Alpha [Aleph] and the Omega [Tov], the
Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. Blessed are
those who do His commandments, that they may have the
right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates
into the city. But outside are dogs and sorcerers and
sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and
whoever loves and practices a lie.”

Sons of Fresh Oil
 There is so much symbolism when reading about the
olive tree. Yahweh has charged the sons of Israel, all
twelve tribes, to bring clear beaten olive oil to keep their
lamps burning continuously.
 This responsibility falls on those who have betrothed
themselves to the Messiah to bring the oil.
 The true Bride is motivated and unwavering in her heart
commitment to her Bridegroom thus she brings the extra
oil for her lamp. The foolish will try to buy their oil, but oil
for these lamps cannot be purchased.

Sons of Fresh Oil
 Oil is produced by walking in obedience to the ways of the
Messiah, knowing the difference between what is clean
and unclean, holy and unholy, and worshipping with Him
at His Feast Days/moedim. These are called the paths of
righteousness, the redemptive journey of the Bride.
 The unwise virgins are a reference to those lukewarm in
their pursuit of Torah; therefore the appointed Feasts of
the King and His Sabbaths are less important to them.
Those believers will not be prepared when the day
comes; consequently they will not have the oil needed for
their lamps.
 In the context of this parable we need to realize that the
foolish virgins disqualified themselves and missed out on
being the Bride at the return of the Messiah

Revelation 3:14-22 [Yeshua said to believers/the Bride,]
“And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans
write, ‘ These things says the Amen, the Faithful and
True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: I
know your works [your walk], that you are neither cold
nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then,
because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I
will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, ‘I
am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of
nothing’ - and do not know that you are wretched,
miserable, poor, blind, and naked [not had a heart to
walk after Yeshua’s Principles prepared for the Bride
nor come to His Appointed Feast Days]

I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire,
that you may be rich; and white garments, that you
may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness
may not be revealed [the priestly wedding garment
needed to enter the Bridal Chamber]; and anoint
your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As
many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore
be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door
and knock. If anyone hears [obeys] My voice and
opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with
him [the Wedding Supper of the Lamb], and he
with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit
with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat
down with My Father on His throne. He who has
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the

Matthew 7:24-27 “Therefore whoever hears [obeys] these
sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise
man who built his house on the rock: and the rain
descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and
beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded
on the rock. But everyone who hears these sayings of
Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man
who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended,
the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that
house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”

The Priestly Garments
“Then bring near to yourself Aaron your brother, and his
sons with him, from among the sons of Israel, to minister
as priest to Me - Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and
Ithamar, Aaron's sons. And you shall make holy garments
for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty” (Exodus
28:1-2).

 The garments of the High Priest, who
represented the heavenly King on earth, were
fashioned after the exact pattern of the
heavenly tabernacle also.
 Everything to do with the mishkan was to be a
mirror image of the original. Thus the High
Priestly garments were as the King (Yeshua)
wore in His Kingdom (Hebrews 8:1-2).
Hebrews 8:1-2 “Now this is the main point of
the things we are saying: We have such a
High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of
the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
[Yeshua] a Minister of the sanctuary and of
the true tabernacle which the Lord erected,

 The High Priest clothing consisted of eight
garments. They were: the ephod, breastplate,
robe, tunic, turban, belt, crown and
undergarments.
 Each piece carried a prophetic imagery of the
Messiah that represents His character and
attributes.
 Without these garments, the High Priest was
not fit to serve in the tabernacle/mishkan, thus
accuracy was important.

 The materials in making the High Priestly
garments were gold, blue, purple and scarlet
yarn, and fine linen. These are the same
colors and fabrics used for the curtains that
divided the three sections of the
tabernacle/mishkan, the one difference being
the added gold threads.
 Only the High Priestly garment had the gold
thread running through the multi-colored
fabric.
 Gold represents a direct connection with the
divine nature and ministry of Yeshua, the
King. When the priest wore the garments, he
was walking and serving in a heavenly

The Ephod
 The first garment described was the
ephod. This was to be made of all five
materials and looked like a short apron
wrapped around the top part of the
body with two shoulder straps.
 Two sardonyx stones were to be set in
gold on the shoulder straps with the
names of the twelve tribes engraved on
them as a remembrance. Six names
engraved on one stone and six
engraved on the other stone.

The Ephod
Isaiah 9:6-7 “For a child will be born to us, a son will be given
to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and
His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. There will be no end to the
increase of His government or of peace, on the throne of
David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it
with justice and righteousness from then on and
forevermore. The zeal of Yahweh of hosts will accomplish
this.”

The Ephod
Isaiah 22:22 “Then I will set the key of the house of David on
his shoulder, when he opens no one will shut, when he
shuts no one will open.”
Luke 1:32 “He will be great, and will be called the Son of the
Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His
father David.”

The Ephod
 The definition of engrave means to
cut into, mark by incisions, to carve
upon a surface, to record by incised
letters, to impress deeply, fix indelibly,
to represent by incisions upon wood,
metal, stone, etc. with the view of
reproducing. Yahweh is revealing that all twelve tribes of Israel will be
everlasting as long as He is King in their lives and that they
will be His authority to govern on earth.
 The names of all twelve tribes are forever engraved in
stone on His shoulders and forever remembered as
memorial stones. Just as Moses set up the twelve stones
in front of Mount Sinai during the betrothal stage of the
wedding, so our Bridegroom Yeshua carries the
remembrance of the twelve stones/tribes on His shoulders

The Ephod
Hebrews 13:5 “For He Himself [Yeshua] has said, ‘I will never
leave you nor forsake you.’”

The Breastplate
 Yahweh designed that the twelve
tribes be displayed using precious
stones. “There are to be twelve
stones, one for each of the names of
the sons of Israel, each engraved
like a seal with the name of one of
the twelve tribes” (Exodus 28:21).
 The definition of seal is: as evidence of authenticity or
attestation; a token or symbol of a Covenant; something
that authenticates or confirms; a final addition which
completes and secures; the impression of one’s signet
placed upon an article as evidence of a claim to
possession; a mark of ownership; an impressed mark
serving as visible evidence of something.

The Breastplate
 The twelve tribes were not only to be
represented on the shoulders of the
High Priest but also openly displayed
over His heart for all to see forever
before Yahweh and forever written on
His heart.
 There will always be two witnesses of the Messiah. The
twelve tribes serve as Yahweh’s government and
priesthood to the Nations, for through Yeshua, our High
Priest, all authority has been given to His people.
 No one can say that one is missing or that some tribes
have been fully assimilated into others. They are all
present before Him – even to this today

The Breastplate
Exodus 28:29 “And Aaron shall carry the names of the
sons of Israel in the breastplate of deliverance over
his heart when he enters the holy place, for a
memorial before Yahweh continually.”
Hebrews 8:1-2 “We have such a high priest [Yeshua],
who has taken His seat at the right hand of the
throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a minister in
the sanctuary, and in the true tabernacle, which
Yahweh pitched, not man.”

Urim and the Thummin
 Urim (lights) and the Thummin
(perfection), stones that had the
ability to serve as Yahweh’s
mouthpiece to help make decisions
of ruling (mishpat) for His people.
The vital role these stones held in
times past can be equated with the
guidance of the Holy Spirit in
believer’s hearts today The setting in place of these two stones in front of the
heart represents a witness to the unified cohesiveness of
the Yahweh’s word: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus,
Numbers and Deuteronomy. His Word gives Light. His
Light became flesh and dwelt among us - Yeshua. The
Word is the Rock of Israel

David, after he was anointed King during Saul’s reign,
leaned on his staff, reached into his pouch and defeated
Goliath with one of the five smooth stones (1 Samuel
17:40).

Deuteronomy 33:8 “And of Levi he said: ‘Let Your Thummim
and Your Urim be with Your holy one, whom You tested at
Massah, and with whom You contended at the waters of
Meribah’”
Ezekiel 36:26-27 “Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put
a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone
from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put
My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes,
and you will be careful to observe My ordinances.”

1 Peter 2:5 “you also, as living stones, are being built
up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up
spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through
Jesus Christ/Yeshua Ha Mashiach”

All Twelve Tribes
 Believers sees themselves as part of
Israel and are called to uphold and
proclaim the message of all twelve
identifiable tribes united in heart
(joint heirs) and walking as one in
Yeshua.
 Believers are called to be His light to
the nations/tribes for the restoration
of the whole House of David. If believers are of a royal priesthood in Yeshua they also
will walk in His image carrying all twelve stones engraved
in Hebrew on their hearts.
 Believers who refuse to acknowledge the existence of all
twelve tribes and do not proclaim the redemption of all
Israel are not proclaiming the true Gospel according to
Yeshua

All Twelve Tribes
Zec13:1-2 “In that day a fountain shall be opened for the
house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin
and for uncleanness.
Acts 1:6 “Therefore, when they [the believers/disciples] had
come together, they asked Yeshua, saying, ‘Lord, will You
at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?’ [Kingdom is
reference to all twelve tribes as His Kingdom is made up of
the twelve tribes of Israel – called the restoration of the
House of David]

All Twelve Tribes
Rom 11:11 Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall
beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their
transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to
make Israel envious. 12 But if their transgression means
riches for the world, and their loss means riches for the
Gentiles, how much greater riches will their full inclusion
bring! 13 I am talking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am
the apostle to the Gentiles, I take pride in my ministry 14
in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people
to envy and save some of them. 15 For if their rejection
brought reconciliation to the world, what will their
acceptance be but life from the dead? 16 If the part of the
dough offered as firstfruits is holy, then the whole batch is
holy; if the root is holy, so are the branches. 17 If some of
the branches have been broken off, and you, though a
wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others
and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root,

All Twelve Tribes
18 do not consider yourself to be superior to those other
branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support
the root, but the root supports you. 19 You will say then,
"Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in."
20 Granted. But they were broken off because of
unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but
tremble. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches,
he will not spare you either. 22 Consider therefore the
kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who
fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his
kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off. 23 And if
they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for
God is able to graft them in again. 24 After all, if you were
cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature, and contrary
to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how
much more readily will these, the natural branches, be
grafted into their own olive tree!

The Robe of the Ephod
 This robe was described as being
made entirely of blue cloth. This is a
reference to the heavenly divine side
of Yeshua.
 The hem is to have pomegranates
made of blue, purple and scarlet yarn
adorning the hem, with gold bells
alternating between them that would
make noise while the High Priest
served before Yahweh.
 This was so he would not die (Exodus
28:35).

Pomegranates
 Tradition says that the pomegranate fruit has 613 seeds
representing the 613 commandments or principles of
Yahweh’s Kingdom that govern the earth.
 The seeds are encased in twelve sections within the fruit,
representing the twelve tribes encamped around the
tabernacle.
 The pomegranate is full of white, pearl-like seeds in a red
fluid that represent the sweet, purifying redemptive work of
the blood of the Lamb, Yeshua, and that in His fruitfulness,
each and every law Yahweh gave would be like nectar,

Pomegranates
 the pomegranates can represent the House of Judah,
the keepers of the good news of Torah called the
Gospel, while the bells can represent the House of
Israel, keepers of the good news of Messiah. When
the two houses come together in unity they make a
beautiful sound. If you only have bells without
pomegranates (Torah), Paul said you are likened to a
clanging cymbal.

Pomegranates
 If you have only pomegranates (have only the Torah)
with no bells (no Messiah), then it is as if you are
walking around with Torah and no sound, for Torah
without Messiah is lifeless/dead.
 Therefore, the pomegranates and bells work together
to make a beautiful sound!

Pomegranates
 The gold in the bells also acts to defuse any electrical
buildup when the priest went into the Holy Place to
serve Yahweh, so that the priest would always be
grounded and not die (Exodus 28:35).

The Pure Gold Plate
 A gold plate that is to be engraved
with HOLINESS TO YHWH is to be
attached to the High Priest’s turban by
a blue cord. It is to be placed on the
forehead to signify the heavenly
connection. For believers the engraving represents that they are to
govern their minds and to keep all thoughts holy
before Yahweh continually.
 a sign or pronouncement that this person is totally
dedicated and committed to Yahweh thus all thoughts
need to reflect His thoughts and all speech to mirror
His speech.

The Pure Gold Plate
Philippians 4:8-9 “Finally, brethren, whatever things
are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things
are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things
are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if
there is any virtue and if there is anything
praiseworthy -- meditate on these things. The things
which you learned and received and heard and saw
in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with

The White Robe
 The robe, the turban and the sash are
all to be made of fine white linen. They
represent the righteous acts of the
saints and are called the wedding
garments of the Bride.
Revelation 7:9 “After these things I looked,
and behold, a great multitude, which no
one could count, from every nation and
all tribes and peoples and tongues,
standing before the throne and before
the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and
palm branches were in their hands.”

The White Robe
 When the priests’ white linen garments
became too worn to use before the
presence of Yahweh they were recycled
in several ways, such as wicks for the
menorah in the temple or swaddling
clothes for the newborn (Luke 2:12).
 When the High Priest’s colorful
garments were beyond use they were
buried in a holy place and not recycled.

Consecration of the Priests
 Having an understanding of tabernacle protocol is
vital for believers who are living and serving Yahweh
in these last days.
 The approach to Yahweh in the inner chamber is the
same as it was in the days of Moses and has not
changed. It will always be through holiness.
 Today we have the blood sacrifice of the Lamb. His
blood has redeemed us that we might walk in
holiness before Him. Yeshua has shown us the way.
All has been appropriated for us, now we are
commanded to apply His Righteousness and walk in
it.

Consecration of the Priests
2 Corinthians 6:16-7:1 “For we are the temple of the
living God; just as God said, ‘I will dwell in them and
walk among them; and I will be their God, and they
shall be My people.’ ‘Therefore [Bride], come out
from their [common] midst and be separate [holy],
says Yahweh. And do not touch what is unclean; and
I will welcome you. And I will be a father to you, and
you shall be sons and daughters to Me, says the
Lord Almighty.’ Therefore, having these promises,
beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement
of flesh and spirit [that is in opposition to His
Word/Covenant], perfecting holiness in the fear of
God.”

The Prophetic Priestly Garments of Yeshua
 Ephesians 6, we find Paul quoting from the Torah,
instructing believers how to serve in Yeshua’s
priesthood. Paul was teaching believers what to
wear, how to put the garments on and what they
were used for, as believers are in a spiritual battle
not a physical battle.
 This is the spiritual calling of the royal priesthood.
The scripture Paul was referring back to was from
the prophet Isaiah and Isaiah never saw a Roman
soldier in his life.
 look at Paul’s teaching on the priestly garments with
the understanding that the armor being described
denotes the priestly calling through Yahweh’s

Ephesians 6:10-17 Paul said, “Finally, my brethren
[Bride], be strong in the Lord and in the power of
His might. Put on the whole armor of God, [the
priestly garments/principles of Torah] that you may
be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For
we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but
against principalities, against powers, against the
rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual
hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, [the
priestly calling and understanding of Yahweh’s
principles to rightly interpret the word/Torah], that
you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and
having done all, to stand.”

“Stand therefore, having girded your waist with
truth [Isaiah 11:5 ‘righteousness will be the belt
about His loins, and faithfulness [in Yahweh’s
faithfulness] the belt about His waist’], having put
on the breastplate of righteousness [Isaiah 59:17
‘He put on righteousness like a breastplate’], and
having shod your feet with the preparation of the
gospel of peace [Isaiah 52:7 ‘How lovely on the
mountains are the feet of him who brings good
news (the Gospel), who announces peace and
brings good news of happiness, who announces
salvation, and says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”’].

“Above all, taking the shield of faith [not our own
faithfulness, but Yeshua faithfulness to the Marriage
Covenant He made with His bride] with which you will
be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
[1 Thessalonians 5:8 ‘But since we belong to the day,
let us be self-controlled, putting on faith (His
faithfulness/walk in agreement with His covenant to
His bride) and love (Yeshua defines love as obedience
to His word) as a breastplate.’] And take the helmet of
salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the
word of God; [Isaiah 59:17 ‘A helmet of salvation [was]
on His head; and He put on garments of vengeance
for clothing, and wrapped Himself with zeal as a
mantle.’]

“So Saul clothed David with his armor, and he put a
bronze helmet on his head; he also clothed him with
a coat of mail”

“So David took them off [took the armor off]. Then he took his
staff in his hand; and he chose for himself five smooth
stones [Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and
Deuteronomy] from the brook [living water], and put them
