Last Week’s Recap.
Last Week’s Recap.
1. YHWH is unique, uncreated, eternal, preexisting, non-corporeal, triune in nature and person, he is elohim. Yet at the same time exists also as physical, like man, the exact image and representation of Himself, appearing as but not as YHWH, distinct yet one, the preexisting Word of God, the Wisdom by which God created all things in heaven and on earth. Even still from this Second person of the Godhead proceeds His Spirit who exalts the Son by representing the Father.

2. YHWH created the “angels”, the elohim of His council. They are created beings, as such they are lesser and different the YHWH. He is El Elyon, God Most High; they are bene elim, Sons of God.

3. The Hebrew writers of the Old Testament held the worldview that the nations were ruled by so-called, lesser gods, Sons of God, created elohim. They knew YHWH was an elohim but no other elohim was YHWH. Many, if not the majority of the post exodus Hebrews worshipped these lesser elohim.

4. Hebrews authors, both in the OT and outside it, reference on many occasions the “Second Power in Heaven”, the that is but isn’t YHWH, the physical form of the invisible God, His Word in flesh, His Presence manifested in person, His Image alive, His Representation to the People.

Second Temple Period Rabbis began to ponder and speculate who this second power may be. They knew He was One with God and was elevated above all other bene elim. They thought Adam, Moses, Melchizedek, Michael, Enoch and others.

5. Jesus, in claims to be the “ego emi” the “I AM”, the greek representation of God’s divine name give to Moses, YHWH. The Pharisees and Scribes knew He was claiming to be the little YHWH of the scriptures, that He was claiming to be God.

This validated His transfiguration as a step towards the judgement of the rebellious Sons of God, in that states that the “God Man” would “anasta or anastasis” and overcome/reclaim the nations for YHWH.

Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

Exegetical - what was the original text?
here we apply hermeneutics as well, this is were last week I said we need to be careful not to read our tradition and theology into the text were it wasn’t at the time present.
It is important to understand the culture and customs, the language, the contemporary literature, and religious systems

next is the
Expositional - what is the text meaning?
Expositional - what is the text meaning?
this differs depending on who you may ask...
that is okay, remember our understanding of scripture is not sacred, the scripture itself is...
inspiration
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,

what is meant here is that we shouldn’t create theologies that are foreign to the context of the biblical writers - ancient aliens does this...
