Torah to the Tribes - A podcast by Matthew Nolan - Sundays

Ezekiel 9:6  slay utterly the old man, the young man and the virgin, and little children and women; but come not near any man upon whom is the mark: and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the old men that were before the house. This is how the judgment begins and will begin in the Great Tribulation; First; the old men who should have known better and steered the next generation toward righteousness;  Second; the young people who have the strength and energy to stand up and drive back evil; Third; the mothers who failed to raise their children in the way, to resist paganism and religious syncretism; And lastly; the children who succumbed to the spirit of the time and died with their guilty seniors. Ezekiel 9:9 Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is very, very great. Their iniquity is greater than Sodom to which יהוה declared as: ‘very grave’ (only one ‘very!’) Ezekiel 10:1 Then I looked, and behold, in the firmament that was over the head of the cherubim there appeared above them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne. Do you see ‘’the higher calling’ linkage to Mount Sinai and the Book of the Covenant calling? Just as with the ratifying of the Book of the Covenant and the Melchizedek priesthood came the firmament of the heavens and the sapphire stone, followed by the Ten Commandments. Here we see the converse; the desecration of the Book of the Law and the Levitical Priesthood followed by the ‘Ten steps of departure’ of the Glory of יהוה! As an epoch in Israel’s history comes to a close, as the Torah ceases to be a tangible reality within them then, the withdrawal of the Torah and the glory of יהוה should be accompanied by the same circumstances of its giving. Ezekiel 10:2  And he spake unto the man clothed in linen, and said, Go in between the whirling wheels, even under the cherub, and fill both thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight. This vision took place in the 6th year (8:1);  but Yahusha; the man in linen must have taken hold of the coals Himself allowing them to cool for five years; we know the burning destruction of Jerusalem didn’t happen until the 11th year. WoW! Ezekiel 10:3-5;   3 Now the cherubim stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.  4  And the glory of יהוה mounted up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of יהוה ‘s glory.  5 And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of Elohim Almighty when he speaketh. יהוה has gone to the nations, the outer court! Ezekiel 10:6-12;  6 And it came to pass, when he commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim, that he went in, and stood beside a wheel.  7 And the cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.  8 And there appeared in the cherubim the form of a man’s hand under their wings.  9 And I looked, and behold, four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside one cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was like unto a beryl stone.  10 And as for their appearance, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been within a wheel.  11 When they went, they went in their four directions: they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; they turned not as they went.  12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about, even the wheels that they four had. Ezekiel 10:13-14;   13 As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, the whirlin
