Jude Sat May 18, 2019 10:38 am

1And יהושע having been born in Bĕyth Leḥem of Yehuḏah in the days of Herodes the sovereign, see, Magi from the East came to Yerushalayim,

2saying, “Where is He who has been born Sovereign of the Yehuḏim? For we saw His star in the East and have come to do reverence to Him.”

3And Herodes the sovereign, having heard, was troubled, and all Yerushalayim with him.

4And having gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born.

5And they said to him, “In Bĕyth Leḥem of Yehuḏah, for thus it has been written by the prophet,

6‘But you, Bĕyth Leḥem, in the land of Yehuḏah, you are by no means least among the rulers of Yehuḏah, for out of you shall come a Ruler who shall shepherd My people Yisra’ĕl.’ MATTHEW 2:1-6 Institute for Scripture Research – ISR

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,

6 And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel. MATTHEW 2:1-6 James Version - KJV

1 When Jesus then was born at Bethlehem in Judea, in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came Wise men from the East to Jerusalem,

2 Saying, Where is the King of the Jews that is born? for we have seen his star in the East, and are come to worship him.

3 When king Herod heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

4 And gathering together all the chief Priests and Scribes of the people, he asked of them, where Christ should be born.

5 And they said unto him, At Bethlehem in Judea: for so it is written by the Prophet,

6 And thou Bethlehem in the land of Judah, art not the least among the Princes of Judah: for out of thee shall come the governor that [h]shall feed my people Israel. MATTHEW 2:1-6 Geneva Bible 1599 – GNV

May Yah bless and keep you ALL safely abiding under the Shadows of His Mighty Wings. If you have not yet repented, I ask that you repent immediately. Turn to our Heavenly Father through His Beloved Son Yahusha Messiah (Jesus Christ). Please consider doing this immediately, for as we know the world is soon coming to a close. It is during this time that we will need Yah's full divine protection for what is to be unveiled. I believe that it was through obedience that Noah had such great faith; this in essence was what saved him and his family from the flood. As a follower of the Holy Messiah (born again Believer; a former Roman Catholic of 46+ years) there is so much to gain in doing so. My soul is richly blessed by the gems of truth revealed to me by my beloved Heavenly Father, Abba, and I have no regrets repenting of my past ways. Blessings! ~ Judy Velez

THE PSALMS

1How long would You forget me, O יהוה? Forever? How long would You hide Your face from me?

2How long would I take counsel in my being, Grief in my heart day by day? How long would my enemy be exalted over me?

3Look! Answer me, O יהוה my Elohim; Enlighten my eyes, Lest I sleep in death;

4Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him,” Lest my adversaries rejoice when I am moved.

5But I have trusted in Your kindness; My heart rejoices in Your deliverance.

6I sing to יהוה, Because He has been good to me.PSALM 13 Institute for Scripture Research – ISR
