Adam To Enoch To Angels On Earth

 Hi everyone, Happy Sunday. 

Before getting into the Book Of Jubilees I thought I'd share something that came to mind while I was listening to a video about the Book Of Enoch from a YouTube channel called Original Hebrew. The video mentioned the word repent, and made me think about how John The Baptist and Jesus both used the word. Here's a link to the website and also a section of the website Jerusalem Of Gold website explaining the Hebrew Meaning of the word Repent. This was significant to me because, on one hand Jesus came as a sacrifice for the world so we wouldn't have to continue to have animal sacrifices like in the Old Testament, but I also think if a person who doesn't go to church, is struggling with whatever is distressing them in their life and turns to God and truly wants to be free with whatever is going on, I can hear the conversation, pleading with God promising to change with God's help.... As this website says, every day we turn from the things we do that displeases and turn back to God, God welcomes us with compassion. Do I think you have to say The Sinner's Prayer, asking Jesus to come into your heart, that churches recommend? No. If you are truly remorseful and continue on a path to genuinely seek God's guidance, God is a loving God and forgives.   

The first public preaching word out of Yeshua's - the Messiah's - mouth in the New Testament is "Repent." (Matthew 4.17) This is also the same first public preaching word out of John the Baptist's mouth. (Matthew 3.2) So it is a very important word to the LORD and our relationship with Him.

In Greek "repent" has been written down as "metanoya."

But, in the Hebrew it would be the word: "Nacham". Nacham means: to change one's mind, be grieved, repent. Yeshua would have known His Hebrew and known with exquisite perfection that Hebrew words share roots.  

Nacham (repent) shares the same root as:

Nocham:  which means 'compassion'

Nachum:  which means 'console'

Nachama: which means 'comfort'

So the Hebrew word for repent literally comes with God’s compassion, consolation and comfort built into it. That understanding really helps me to repent on a daily basis, because His Compassion and Comfort are waiting immediately the other side of that sometimes painful process.

The second  Hebrew word for repent is 'shoov'. It means: "to turn back, to be returned, carry back, brought again" and means a relationship is restored.   

This is a life-pounding-run-across-a-desert-word, like our life depended on it. This is because one of the times it is used in the Hebrew Scriptures is when Moses the shepherd "turns", travels to the other side of the desert, sees the burning bush, encounters God and becomes a changed man with a profound and historic mission to save the Hebrew people from slavery (the book of Exodus). There are no empty or weak words in the Hebrew language for "repent", the Messiah's first public word. The Hebrew word for 'repent' also means to 'carry back'. The second we repent His loving arms are right there to pick us up and carry us back on track.

In the Jewish faith, when we ask the LORD to forgive us, it is called "doing te-shoov-ah", literally meaning "to do turning back" before God's face.  Even today, the Hebrew word  for "before" in the modern Hebrew language literally means "to the face of" and is the same word used in the Biblical scriptures. You can't come before God in the Hebrew and not look Him in the eye and He in yours! It would be a contradiction in terms in the Hebrew language. We cannot repent unless we  turn fully around from our sin and look at Him deeply face-to-face. Although that honesty with our Holy Creator initially can be very painful, His face is where you will find the universe's most powerful eyes of Compassion, Consoling and Comfort.  Repent and Turn.

Now, on with the Book Of Jubilees.

This is when Eve comes on the scene. All of the animals were brought to Adam and he gave them their name, and God said to "US" (an Angel is actually narrating this story") "it is not good that the man should be alone, let us make a helpmeet for him." As in the Protestant Bible it says God caused a deep sleep to come upon him and took one of his ribs to make woman and He Built up the flesh and built the woman. I thought that was interesting it was phrased that way. From verse 8 through verse 15 of Chapter 3 it talks about the rules not being able to touch anything sacred or enter the sanctuary during the times of defilement. 

For 7 years Adam and "his wife" (another interesting use of words since she was given a name) lived in the Garden Of Eden. This is the first week of the first Jubilee. This time period is called 1-7A.M.

This stands for Anno Mundi. A Latin phrase meaning "in the year of the world. A chronological system used to date events based on the number of years that have passed since the creation of the world." 

The Book Of Jubilees actually tells, to the day, when the serpent approached "the woman." On the second month on the seventeenth day. I'll summarize here since it is basically like the Bible, the serpent tempted her, she ate the fruit, and they realized they were naked. Through verse 27 God became angry, cursed the serpent, cursed the ground so now we have to work to provide for ourselves. Verse 28 is where it is different again and gets interesting. It says" on that day all the mouths of the beasts, cattle, birds and whatever walks and moves so that they could no longer speak: for they had all all spoken one with another with one lip and with one tongue." Then all flesh were sent out of the garden. Adam and Even dwelt in the land of Elda. They had no son. The in the 3rd week of the 2nd Jubilee {8A.M.} she gave birth to Cain. In the 4th she gave birth to Abel, in the 5th she gave birth to her daughter Awan. Here's a new development. 

Then in the first year of the third Jubilee Cain killed Abel. Verses 4,5, and 6 are similar to the Bible where Cain has to wander the world. Then Adam and his wife mourned for Abel four weeks of years. {99-127A.M.} Then in the 4th year of the 5th week they became joyful again, Adam KNEW HIS WIFE AGAIN, 😳 and she bare him a son and they called him Seth. In the 6th week they had another daughter Azura. Adam and Eve had 9 sons. Seth took Azura his sister to he his wife and they had a son named Enos. To spare you all the lineage, from verse 13-15 it talks about everyone leading up to Enoch being born. This is the time when angels called the watchers admired the women on the earth and came and defiled them.

Next time we'll get into the fall of those angels and Noah being born, but for now

Keep searching,

Paul
