The Hebraic Book of Revelation – Part 11

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

The Hebraic Book of Revelation – Part 11 Rev 11:1 And there was given to me a reed like a rod: and the heavenly angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the Tabernacle of יהוה, and the altar, and those that worship in it. 2 But the court that is outside the Temple leave out, and do not measure it; for it is given to the gentiles: 5 and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty two months. Measure the Temple closure but not the court.  יהוה will keep His priesthood close, whereas the compromising Church will left at the hands of the unbelieving world.  The measuring of the Temple is a symbolic way of declaring its preservation.  The outer court – the court of the gentiles is the area for those members who have fallen for the doctrine of Balaam and Jezebel, “believers” who claim the name yet have compromised with the COVID world. By יהוה distinguishing inner hidden reality of the assembly as a kingdom of priests who worship יהוה in His presence FROM the outward veneer of professing believers as they are exposed to persecution by the kingdom of nations. 1 of 2 Choices:  Be a Melchizedek Kingdom of priests OR  Be exposed to persecution by the kingdom of nations! We are called to fulfill end time roles, Kings like Zerubbabel and priests like Joshua.  3 And I will give power to My two witnesses, 6 and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred sixty days,clothed in sackcloth. 4 These are the two olive eytzim, and the two menorah’s standing before the Elohim of the earth. 5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceeds out of their mouth, and devours their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in like manner be killed.  The Two Witnesses! Is John the the Beloved Still Alive?  Matthew. 16:27, 28 truly I say to you, there are some standing here, who shall not taste of death, until they see the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom. According to historical sources John the apostle escaped natural death. He was exiled to the island of Patmos in the Mediterranean Sea, where he was supposedly left to live out the rest of his mortal life.  “Emperor Dometian imprisoned Yochanan in Romiyah, and had him beaten poisoned and thrown into a cauldron of boiling oil 3 times. Yochanan stepped out unharmed and was banished to the island of Patmos instead.”  From Church fathers book Acts of John- “And gazing towards heaven, he glorified Eloah; and having sealed himself altogether, he stood and said to us, Peace and grace be with you, brethren! And sent the brethren away. And when they went on the morrow they did not find him, but his sandals, and a fountain welling up. And after that they remembered what had been said to Peter by the Yahweh about him: For what does it concern thee if I should wish him to remain until I come? And they glorified Eloah for the miracle that had happened. And having thus believed, they retired praising and blessing the benignant Eloah; because to Him is due glory now and ever, and to ages of ages. Amen.” John reports to us that he was told while he was still alive in Gilyahna/Revelation 10:11 “And he said to me, You must prophesy again before many peoples and nations and tongues and kings.”  Matthew 16: 27 For the Son of Man shall come in the glory of His Father with His heavenly angels; and then He shall reward every man according to his deeds. 28 Truly I say to you, There are some standing here, who shall not taste of death, until they see the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom.  Matthew 17:1 And after six days Yahshua took Kepha, Yaakov, and Yochanan his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain alone to make tefillah,2 And while He was making tefillah He was transformed before them: and His face did shine as the sun, and His clothing was white as the light. 3 And, see, there appeared to them Moshe and Eli-Yahu talking with Him about what would happen to Him in Yahrushalayim.  John saw the kingdom in a vision without dying first!  So literally;  one of those 3 disciples would not die until the
