Some Dangers Inherent in the Hebrew Roots
Movement
Putting all our teachings on trial
We don’t have to reinvent the wheel
Listening to the Rabbis (danger, danger Will
Robinson!)
Don ‘t believe everything you hear – even if it is
a fine sounding argument
How to approach the daunting task of exploring
the nature of Elohim:
With humility
Fully understanding the nature of Elohim is
beyond our ability (oneness, trinitarianism)
Spiritual things are spiritually discerned
13
Who has understood the mind of Yehovah, or
instructed him as his counselor?
14 Whom did Yehovah consult to enlighten him,
and who taught him the right way? Who was it
that taught him knowledge or showed him the
path of understanding?
15 Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket;
they are regarded as dust on the scales; he
weighs the islands as though they were fine dust.
(Isaiah 40)
1 Corinthians 2 – Discerning Spiritual Things
9 However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has
heard, no mind has conceived what Elohim has prepared
for those who love him"-10 but Elohim has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit
searches all things, even the deep things of Elohim.
11 For who among men knows the thoughts of a man
except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no
one knows the thoughts of Elohim except the Spirit of
Elohim.
12 We have not received the spirit of the world but the
Spirit who is from Elohim, that we may understand what
Elohim has freely given us.
13
This is what we speak, not in words taught us by
human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit,
expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.
14 The man without the Spirit does not accept the things
that come from the Spirit of Elohim, for they are
foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them,
because they are spiritually discerned.
15 The spiritual man makes judgments about all things,
but he himself is not subject to any man's judgment:
16 "For who has known the mind of Yehovah that he may
instruct him?" But we have the mind of Messiah.
The Ridiculous Notion that Elohim Could
Become a Man
19 Elohim is not a man, that he should lie, nor a
son of man, that he should change his mind.
Does he speak and then not act? Does he
promise and not fulfill? (Numbers 23)
32 "He is not a man like me that I might answer
him, that we might confront each other in
court. (Job 9)
Man Made in Elohim’s Image
26 Then Elohim said, "Let us make man in our
image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the
fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the
livestock, over all the earth, and over all the
creatures that move along the ground."
27 So Elohim created man in his own image, in the
image of Elohim he created him; male and
female he created them. (Genesis 1)
~l,c, (tselem) image
Used of idols, the representation of so-called
gods

The Word
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim.
2 He was with Elohim in the beginning.
3 Through him all things were made; without him
nothing was made that has been made.
4 In him was life, and that life was the light of
men.
5 The light shines in the darkness, but the
darkness has not understood it. (4th Gospel 1)
Dabar is a very common word in Hebrew,
usually rendered word. The BDB Lexicon
lists our word as rb'D': n.m. speech,
word. The Theological Wordbook of the
Old Testament (TWOT) gives us these
renderings: word, speaking, speech,
thing, etc. And the Hebrew and Aramaic
Lexicon of the Old Testament (HALOT)
adds matter as another typical
translation.
In the KJV dābar (the verb Strong’s 1696) is
translated by about thirty different words and
dābār (the noun Strong’s 1697) by more than
eighty. Some of these are synonyms but many
are not. All, however, have some sense of
thought processes, of communication, or of
subjects or means of communication. The
noun dābār stretches all the way from anything
that can be covered by the word thing or
matter to the most sublime and dynamic
notion of the word of God. (TWOT)
The Word of Yehovah
After these things, the word of Yehovah came
to Avram in a vision: "Do not be afraid,
Avram. I am your shield, your very great
reward." (Bereshith 15:1)
Then the word of Yehovah came to him: "This
man will not be your heir..." (Bereshith 15:4).
Dabar Yehovah
Gerleman notes that the singular construct chain
dabar YHWH "the word of the LORD" occurs
242 times and almost always (225 times) the
expression appears as a technical form for the
prophetic revelation (TWOT).
In other words, the word of Yehovah is a direct
communication from Elohim. The Word of
Yehovah is Yehovah Himself!
But a careful examination of the usage of this
phrase will bear out that the phrase is more
than merely a "technical form for the prophetic
revelation." The d'var Yehovah is personified
in its usage and stands in the place of Yehovah
himself. The d'var Yehovah, as a name or title
of Yehovah himself, both appears and
speaks. The d'var Yehovah is not merely a
message from Yehovah, it is Yehovah himself
appearing and speaking.
Elohim Appears to Abram
When Avram was ninety-nine years old, Yehovah
appeared to him and said, "I am El Shaddai; walk
before me and be blameless.
2 I will confirm my covenant between me and you
and will greatly increase your numbers."
3 Avram fell facedown, and Elohim said to him,
4 "As for me, this is my covenant with you: You
will be the father of many nations. (Genesis 17)
Yehovah Again Appears to Abraham
Yehovah appeared to Avraham near the great
trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the
entrance to his tent in the heat of the day.
Avraham looked up and saw three men
standing nearby. (Bereshith 18:1-2).
He then brought some curds and milk and the
calf that had been prepared, and set these
before them. While they ate, he stood near
them under a tree. "Where is your wife
Sarah?" they asked him. "There, in the tent,"
he said. Then Yehovah said, "I will surely return
to you about this time next year, and Sarah
your wife will have a son." Now Sarah was
listening at the entrance to the tent, which was
behind him. (Bereshith 18:8-10).
When the men got up to leave, they looked
down toward Sodom, and Avraham walked
along with them to see them on their
way. Then Yehovah said, "Shall I hide from
Avraham what I am about to do? (vss 16-17).
The Word Communicates With Samuel
Now Samuel did not yet know Yehovah: The
word of Yehovah had not yet been revealed
to him. Yehovah called Samuel a third time,
and Samuel got up and went to Eli and said,
"Here I am; you called me." Then Eli realized
that Yehovah was calling the boy. (1 Samuel
3:7-8)
That night the word of Yehovah came to Nathan,
saying: "Go and tell my servant David, 'This is
what Yehovah says...' " (2 Samuel 7:4-5).
And the word of Yehovah came to him: "What
are you doing here, Eliyahu?" (1 Kings 19:9).
The word of Yehovah came to me, saying,
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart; I appointed
you as a prophet to the nations." (Yirmeyahu 1:45).
No one has ever seen Elohim, but Elohim the
One and Only (the only one of its kind of class
unique), who is at the Father's side, has made
him known. (4th Gospel 1:18)

translated exegesis) tell, relate, explain,

The Angel (Messenger) of Yehovah
malack Yehovah (in Hebrew, hA"ïhy>
%a;’l.m;), usually translated angel of
Yehovah or messenger of Yehovah.
The Angel of Yehovah Appears to Hagar
Read Genesis 16:6-14
Who was this Messenger of Yehovah?
Ans: the El who sees
The Messenger of Yehovah Appears to Ya’acov
in a Dream
11
The angel of Elohim said to me in the dream,
'Ya'acov.' I answered, 'Here I am.'
12 And he said, 'Look up and see that all the male goats
mating with the flock are streaked, speckled or
spotted, for I have seen all that Laban has been doing
to you.
13 I am the Elohim of Bethel, where you anointed a
pillar and where you made a vow to me. Now leave
this land at once and go back to your native land.'"
Israel Knows the Malack is Yehovah
Then he blessed Yoseph and said, "May the
Elohim before whom my fathers Avraham
and Yitzchak walked-- the Elohim who has
been my shepherd all my life long to this day,
the Angel who has protected me from all
harm-- bless these boys (Bereshith 48:15-16).
The Messenger of Yehovah Appears to
Mosheh?
There the angel of Yehovah appeared to him in
flames of fire from within a bush. Mosheh
saw that though the bush was on fire it did
not burn up. (Shemot 3:2).
So Mosheh thought, "I will go over and see this
strange sight-- why the bush does not burn
up." When Yehovah saw that he had gone over to
look, Elohim called to him from within the bush,
"Mosheh! Mosheh!" And Mosheh said, "Here I
am." "Do not come any closer," Elohim said. "Take
off your sandals, for the place where you are
standing is holy ground." Then he said, "I am the
Elohim of your father, the Elohim of Avraham, the
Elohim of Yitzchak and the Elohim of Ya'acov." At
this, Mosheh hid his face, because he was afraid to
look at Elohim. (Shemot 3:3-6).
The Angel of Yehovah Appears to Gideon
The angel of Yehovah came and sat down under
the oak in Ophrah that belonged to Joash the
Abiezrite, where his son Gideon was threshing
wheat in a winepress to keep it from the
Midianites. When the angel of Yehovah
appeared to Gideon, he said, "Yehovah is with
you, mighty warrior." "But sir," Gideon replied,
"if Yehovah is with us, why has all this
happened to us?
The Angel of Yehovah Appears to Gideon
Where are all his wonders that our fathers told us
about when they said, 'Did not Yehovah bring
us up out of Mitzrayim?' But now Yehovah has
abandoned us and put us into the hand of
Midian." Yehovah turned to him and said, "Go
in the strength you have and save Yisrael out of
Midian's hand. Am I not sending you?" "But
Yehovah," Gideon asked, "how can I save
Yisrael? (Shoftim [Judges] 6:11-15).
Acts 7:37-8 – Stephen’s Speech
37
"This is that Mosheh who told the sons of
Yisrael, 'Elohim will send you a prophet like
me from your own people.'
38 He was in the assembly in the desert,
with the angel who spoke to him on Mount
Sinai, and with our fathers; and he received
living words to pass on to us.
How Did Yehovah Come to and
Communicate with the Ancients?
Often, Yehovah appeared to people as a man, and
spoke with them in a human voice
Sometimes Scripture calls him the Word of
Yehovah, sometimes the messenger of Yehovah,
both of whom appeared as a man.
To say, then, that Yehovah would never come as a
human is contrary to the revelation of Scripture
The Future King is from the Distant
Past
But you (Bethlehem) Ephrathah, the least of
the clans of Judah, from you will come for me
a future ruler of Israel whose origins go back
to the distant past, to the days of old. (Micah
5:1, New Jerusalem Bible)
The Son Born from David is the Mighty Elohim
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the
government will be on his shoulders. And he will be
called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty Elohim,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase
of his government and peace there will be no end.
He will reign on David's throne and over his
kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice
and righteousness from that time on and forever.
The zeal of Yehovah of armies will accomplish this
(Yeshayahu 9:6-7).
Psalm 110
Of David. A psalm. Yehovah says to my master:
"Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a
footstool for your feet."
2 Yehovah will extend your mighty scepter from
Zion; you will rule in the midst of your enemies.
3 Your troops will be willing on your day of battle.
Arrayed in holy majesty, from the womb of the
dawn you will receive the dew of your youth.
Psalm 110
4 Yehovah has sworn and will not change his
mind: "You are a priest forever, in the order of
Melchizedek."
5 Yehovah is at your right hand; he will crush
kings on the day of his wrath.
6 He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead
and crushing the rulers of the whole earth.
7 He will drink from a brook beside the way;
therefore he will lift up his head.
The Torah and the Prophets describe many
occasions when Yehovah appeared as a man
and spoke with people.
The Prophets also make clear that a son would
be born from David’s line who would be the
Mighty Elohim, whose origins are from the
distant past.
These revelations clearly indicate that Elohim
would be born in human flesh to dwell with
men and to rule and reign on earth.
The criticisms about the use of the New
Testament to “prove” the deity of Yeshua
Messiah
If Yeshua is the Son of Elohim, we should be
able to prove it from the Tanach (only)
Faulty logic?
Been listening too trustingly to the Rabbis
again? You believe them? Really?
The Testimony of Yeshua About Himself
23 But he continued, "You are from below; I am
from above. You are of this world; I am not of this
world.
24 I told you that you would die in your sins; if you
do not believe that I am, you will indeed die in
your sins."
And so they were saying to Him, "Who are You?"
Yeshua said to them, "What have I been saying
to you from the beginning? (4th Gospel 8:25).
Your father Avraham was overjoyed to see my
day, and he saw it and was glad." Then the
Yehudim replied, "You are not yet fifty years
old! Have you seen Avraham?" Yeshua said to
them, "I tell you the solemn truth, before
Avraham was, I AM!" Then they picked up
stones to throw at him, but Yeshua hid
himself and went out from the temple area
(The 4th Gospel 8:56-59).
The Works of Yeshua
"But I have a testimony greater than that from
Yochanan. For the deeds that the Father has
assigned me to complete--the deeds I am
now doing--testify about me that the Father
has sent me" (The 4th Gospel 5:36).
The Works of Yeshua
The Jewish leaders surrounded him and asked,
"How long will you keep us in suspense? If
you are the Messiah, tell us plainly." Yeshua
replied, "I told you and you do not believe.
The deeds I do in my Father's name testify
about me" (4th Gospel 10:24-25).
The Testimony About Yeshua from Eyewitnesses
13
When Yeshua came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he
asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"
14 They replied, "Some say Yochanan the Baptist; others say
Eliyahu; and still others, Yeremiah or one of the prophets."
15 "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"
16 Shimon Kepha answered, "You are the Messiah, the Son of
the living Elohim."
17 Yeshua replied, "Blessed are you, Shimon son of Yonah, for
this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in
heaven. (Matthew 16)
The Word
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim.
2 He was with Elohim in the beginning.
3 Through him all things were made; without him
nothing was made that has been made.
4 In him was life, and that life was the light of
men.
5 The light shines in the darkness, but the
darkness has not understood it. (4th Gospel 1)
Now the Word became flesh and tabernacled
among us. We saw his splendor--the splendor
of the one and only, full of grace and truth,
who came from the Father.... For the Torah was
given through Mosheh, but favor and truth
came from Yeshua Messiah.
No one has ever seen Elohim. The only one (only
begotten), himself Elohim, who is in bosom of
the Father, has made Elohim known (The 4th
Gospel 1:17-18).
The Testimony of Paul
He is the image of the invisible Elohim, the
firstborn of all creation (Colossians 1:15).
eikwn “eikon” - likeness, image; form,
appearance; statue - an object shaped to resemble
the form or appearance of someth., likeness,
portrait; that which has the same form as someth.
else; that which represents someth. else in terms
of basic form and features, form, appearance.
prwtotokoj (pronounced prototokos) from
prwtoj, “first” and tiktw ”to bear, bring
forth, produce.” This word is found in the
Septuagint as translation for the Hebrew
rAkB., “bechor” firstborn, lit. pert. to birth
order, firstborn, pert. to having special status
associated with a firstborn.
Also parallel with “only begotten”
He is before all things, and in Him all things hold
together (Colossians 1:17).
This sentence affirms that Yeshua pre-existed before
anything was ever created. He himself cannot be created
because he existed before all created things.
For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness
to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things
to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His
stake; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or
things in heaven (vss 19-20).
You should have the same attitude toward one another
that Messiah Yeshua had, who though he existed in the
form of Elohim did not regard equality with Elohim as
something to be grasped, but emptied himself by taking
on the form of a slave, by looking like other men, and by
sharing in human nature. He humbled himself, by
becoming obedient to the point of death--even death on
a stake! As a result Elohim exalted him and gave him the
name that is above every name, so that at the name of
Yeshua every knee will bow--in heaven and on earth and
under the earth-- and every tongue confess that Yeshua
Messiah is Yehovah to the splendor of Elohim the Father
(Philippians 2:5-11).
The Testimony of Book of Hebrews
At many times and in many ways in the past Elohim
spoke to the fathers through the prophets, but in
these last days he has spoken to us by the Son, whom
He has appointed heir of all things, through whom
also He made the ages, who being the brightness of
the esteem and the exact representation of His
substance, and sustaining all by the word of His
power, having made a cleansing of our sins through
Himself, sat down at the right hand of the Greatness
on high (Ivrit 1:1-3).
Psalm 110
Of David. A psalm. Yehovah says to my master:
"Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet."
2 Yehovah will extend your mighty scepter from
Zion; you will rule in the midst of your enemies.
having become so much better than the
messengers, as He has inherited a more
excellent Name than them. For to which of the
messengers did He ever say, "You are My Son,
today I have brought You forth"? And again, "I
shall be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me
a Son"? (Ivrit 1:4-5),
The Testimony of Book of Hebrews
And of the messengers indeed He says, "... who
is making His messengers spirits and His
servants a flame of fire." But to the Son He
says, "Your throne, Elohim, is forever and
ever, a scepter of uprightness is the scepter
of Your reign (Ivrit 1:7-8, quoting Ps 45:6-7).
Summary and Conclusion
The Tanach reveals that Yehovah often appeared
as a man to communicate with mankind.
The Prophets predicted that a the Everlasting
Father would be born as a son to David, who
would rule and reign.
Yeshua and those around him testified that he is
the image and representation of Elohim in
human form.
