Goring begins with ‘horns of re’eim’ among untribed Apache

EDITOR’S NOTE: Rabbis have long held that the Christian interpretation of the “re’eim” as a “unicorn” is impossible and have opted for the “wild ox associated with Joseph.” In the American Southwest and particularly the Sacred Four Corners area where Joseph-East M’nashe has settled and remained in covenant, this animal is unquestionably the buffalo.

Buffalo horns instrument of covenant

between Native, non-Native ‘Joes’

at East Gate of Sacred Four Corners

WALSENBURG, COLORADO – Starman and Lioneagle lift two buffalo skulls overhead, offer sacred tobacco and pray to Grandfather in the six directions of the Apache star. A shell from one of these buffalo horns will use the hand of Cryingeagle to dip into water, which will pour onto glowing grandfather stones in the darkness of inipi (purification lodge). Thus, untribed Apache descended from still-covenanted East M’nashe are used of Creator and His Creation to begin to “gore” the “thousands of M’nashe and the myriads of thousands of Ephraim” together with the “horns of the re’eim” (Deut 33:17).

Still under the influence of Shabbat Torah study the previous day, Starman and Lioneagle choose a large, 80-pound, five-sided grandfather to represent the Books of Moses. Offering more sacred tobacco – the Apache equivalent of the p’tum ha-ketoret (or incense used in the Jerusalem Temple) the two raise this grandfather in a sacred manner also turning it to the same six directions to which Orthodox Jews wave their Feast of Tabernacles bundles. All present mimic this diligent search for Creator turning toward each direction while praying with sacred tobacco.

‘Rock of Torah,’ Judea-Samaria highlight ‘grandfather council’

The “Rock of Torah” is placed on a cradle of larger diameter cottonwood branches. The elevated cradle, which forms a floor for fire to burn from below and through to heat the grandfathers, is arranged in a sacred manner inside a deep, stepped and circular fire pit.

The 50th grandfather laid atop the rock pile with the Rock at its base, is oddly shaped, Starman notes. Its porous, volcanic and raised 3D contours resemble the outline of the mountains of Judea-Samaria! That is appropriate as well for this inipi (sometimes irreverently called a “sweat lodge).” Rockets fired by Hamas from the Gaza have been striking southern Israel the previous week. Israel is responding with surgical attacks but there have been civilian casualties. It appears that the Middle East is about to explode. The Birthright territories of Joseph are again in the news and blogs. Smiles is half Palestinian. Lioneagle has a son whose Jewish mother lives in southern Israel. A third member of the community has friends in Egypt. And the Torah study the day before taught about the separate and incompatible “le’um” of Jacob with the people Obadiah wrote would be occupying Jacob’s possessions when Jacob would be returned to them: The House of Esau.

The grandfathers are prepared to hold their fiery pre-inipi council within a tipi covered with a skin of thick, peeled cottonwood bark over piles of more kindling and under layers of split cottonwood slabs.

‘I am the re’eim who gores nations together’ – ministering Buffalo spirit

Meanwhile, Cryingeagle positions the buffalo skulls on an altar made of a small mound of earth midway between the fire pit and entrance of the inipi. Shells of the horns fit like sleeves over the two points of each skull. Sage bundles, which have a way of spontaneously igniting depending on the direction of spiritual winds, are stuffed into mouth, nose and ear openings of the skulls. All remember the lodge poured the Sunday after Simhat Torah (the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles), by Running Buffalo when those nostrils did flare with fire: “I am the re’eim who gores the nations together,” the ministering Buffalo spirit explained in inipi, that day.

Between the horns of the buffalo, no longer silent about his identity and role as the “re’eim,” Cryingeagle lays the community’s holy channupah. After the inipi, the Apache community will draw smoke (but not inhale it) from this sacred pipe, wash with it and blow it in the six directions.

A golden eagle named ‘Aaron’ awaits arrival of Condor

Cradling the channupah between the horns of the re’eim is the wing of a golden eagle known before it flew into the World To Come as the priestly, “Aaron.” The wing will later be passed inside the inipi circle allowing all to momentarily take symbolic shelter beneath. “Aaron” will administer buffalo, bear and eagle medicines and as an interceding “tzaddik,” (with one wing in this world and the other in the World To Come), will petition on behalf of Lion relatives and other beasts of the field growing restless in the current drought. Aaron’s wing will wash the two-legged in the lodge with the smoke of sage, cedar and braided sweetgrass. Because these Apache reside at the eastern gateway of the Sacred Four Corners, there is also a special connection the Eagle, Aaron, makes with the Condor commemorated weekly with the smoke of the Azteca medicine from the copal root. And when the heat is especially intense, Aaron will “fly” around the inipi and hear cries of mercy while his wing stirs up the heat and adds to the suffering.

Tenrivers realizes fruit of labors

Jimmy Tenrivers, the first sundancer among these untribed Apache, who started this very inipi in his back yard some 15 years ago, fittingly arrives on this day Torah is honored. The fruit of this spiritual elder crippled in first a car and then a motorcycle accident more than 25 years ago, includes most everyone in the lodge. He was also the first Native American spiritual leader given a sample by an emissary from Jerusalem of the more than 600 pounds of a substance identified as containing 11 of the 14 ingredients that comprise the ancient pitu’um ha-ketoret (incense used in the Jerusalem Temple).  The “incense,” was found under 37 feet of fill and stored in pits carved out of bedrock  in a cave excavated north of Qumran.

Eighty-year-old Uncle Shorty, a Navy veteran, arrives to take out the grandfathers used the last inipi and clean and sweep the inipi firepit assisted by Cryingeagle’s young son.

‘Unseen Hand’ lends fiery council first spark

Hollowbone, one of the first to attend and promote the Shabbat Torah study at Eldersgate American Indian Council, arrives with others from the community who live near the Sundance site located some 26 miles away and a few thousand feet higher into the Rockies. Finally other drummers and sundancers including Tenrivers‘ son arrive. All watch as an Unseen Hand uses Cryingeagle to lend the fiery council its first spark.

Almost immediately, the flames jump through the carefully prepared tipi … a very good sign. While the grandfathers begin their council of fire, the warrior-society elders, sundancers, singers and drummers and their women and children gather around a father drum left in the care of Cryingeagle by a fellow sundancer.

Drummers sing, chant permutations of Divine Name

The drummers and singers offer sacred tobacco on the drum, painted with the face of a bear. Starman flips his Native Pride cap so the bill faces back of his ears and begins pounding the drum. Soon, a dozen drumsticks, most padded with bear hair, join in a steady beat directed by the Starman’s vertical chops with his free hand. Seven songs are sung. All contain chants permuting Y, H and W consonants with various vowels. Since “remembering” in Torah that this is the Divine Name reflecting Creator’s attribute of Justice tempered with Mercy, these Apache are living evidence of the Covenant of Mercy with Hashem (Grandfather). This day is yet another reminder since of the 50 grandfathers, one will remain in the fire so that 49 “elders,” the number of judgment tempered with mercy, are the fiery teachers today.

Migration research locates East M’nashe at Four Corners

Recent migration research links especially the Navajo and the five nations of the Apache among 38 Athap(b)ascan Language Group nations to the warriors and assimilated Gershonite priests of Israelite East M’nashe. (See reprint of Ancient American magazine article, “Israelite East M’nashe traced to Four Corners,” at www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm.) If so, East M’nashe was never removed from its covenant . These frontier warrior-priests were exiled 17-23 years before the “House of Israel” residing west of the Jordan River entered their prophesied exile.

The King of the Northern Tribes also paid a tribute to the King of Assyria so that Assyria would not invade west of the Jordan at that time. So the terms of Yizra’el, Lo-ruhamah and Lo-ami, — a scattered seed without mercy disowned by God — in Hosea 1 severing the covenant with the northern House of Israel, apply not at all to East M’nashe as they apply not at all to the Southern Kingdom, the House of Judah. It is possible that the 7,000 from the Northern “House of Israel,” who did not bow their knees to the ba’alim, (pagan gods of wood and stone) about whom Elijah was told, came from his own country and stomping ground: The Gershonite priests of Gilead and warriors of East M’nashe. These Apache evidence they are part of the “preserved of Israel” of Isaiah 49:6-8. Consequently, the spiritual work is one of “restoration” to Torah and “remembrance” of mercies, and not a “new” covenant.

Sundance draws out independent, untribed Apache

Among the House of Joseph, East M’nashe was the most separated and among East M’nashe, the most separated “nation” appears to be untribed Apache who obeyed their prophet, Geronimo. They did not surrender and go onto reservations. Instead these descendants of Geronimo and his chief Membreno warrior, Victorio, fled into the Rockies and eventually mixed with the mountain people. The regathering started when the Sundance was brought to southern Colorado about 12 years ago. The dance has drawn out these independent-minded but unaffiliated and untribed Apache who have reassembled as a people, just as Geronimo prophesied.

Under the banner, “Iglesia de Aztlan,” (assembling of Aztlan), the sundance is also attracting Aztec from the South country. Hopi medicine man Emory Holmes, who gave his blessing to Tenrivers and Lioneagle for the work of hosting elders, said the Aztec are a Hopi clan who instead of returning to their homeland in the north set up another civilization in Mexico and Central America. However, the Aztec literature, songs and dramas are about returning to the promised Aztlan, the Aztec homeland somewhere in the Four Corners area. Coupled with the promise to the Hopi connected with their migrations across Turtle Island, “America” became the promised homeland of the Latino descendants of the Hopi long before anything “American” existed.

Many believe this will be the arrival of the Condor to unite with the Eagle, an ancient Native prophecy. Another Oglalah Sioux prophecy states “just before great fires will sweep the Plains, that a place will be prepared in the mountains (Rockies) for elders to come from which to steward the healing of the land.”  Wilson, a sort of renegade Oglalah medicine man who rode a Harley, spent his life seeking Grandfather about this place for the elders. The “Buffaloman” as he was known to his friends before his death in 2007 wound up living near Walsenburg, Co., the eastern gateway of the Sacred Four Corners. Traditionally, elders meet in eastern precincts, explaining why the revelation of the horns of the re’eim may have been given to these particular Eastern Gate Apache. Many of them also know they are being prepared to host elders.

Covenant between Creation, humanity under way in Native inipi

The judgment of the Ten Tribes (sans East M’nashe) written in Hosea 1 is in part remedied with the covenant outlined in Hosea 2:18-20. This covenant with “the beasts of the field, the birds of the air and the creeping things on the earth and to end the sword, bow and violence in the earth,” is weekly celebrated/accommodated in the Native American inipi. It is “evidenced” with the suffering that comes when the horns of the re’eim “gore” or dip into water and pour onto the glowing grandfathers. This and the preparation of the fire are the only human hands in this sacred ceremony – given to a people whose stream of Israeli-priesthood was never cut off and which predates Orthodox Judaism by more than 200 years!

Otherwise, Creation speaks directly through the suffering and inner-reflection that occurs in inipi (which means to look “inside” or “within” one’s spirit). In a pitch-black, steaming womb of Earth framed by 16 sacred willows, the natural and basic elements of fire, water, wind and stone combine to “covenant with” and “humble” human beings. Just what the Good Doctor ordered for Ephraim.

All bow low to the ground before entering inipi and declare, “Hoa (pronounced as a Hebrew furtive patah, “Ah-ho”) mitakuye oyasin,” or “To all of my relations.” This includes the four-legged, winged and other aspects of Creation, free to speak in Native inipi through human beings, the insights communicated from and while suffering.

Judah needs Joseph and Joseph needs a humble Ephraim

Especially in need of humility are the “myriads of thousands of Ephraim,” infamous in the words of the prophet Hosea for their pride and arrogance. It appears that Grandfather has decreed the only family of Joseph never removed from covenant – the descendants of shibboleth-speaking M’nashe who lay claim to the n’zirei Yisrael  (preserved of Israel of Isaiah 49:6-8) — to “gore” together Ephraim with sibboleth, M’nassah. Or perhaps the goring is to reconcile Ephraim with (East) M’nashe. If the latter, this covenant would reconcile groups who could loosely be called, “Cowboys” and “Indians.” Regardless, the House of Joseph must get its house together before it can think of reconciling with the House of Judah as per Ezekiel 37 “on the mountains of Israel.”

The House of Judah would do well to recognize and expedite this reconciliation since those mountains (Judea-Samaria), comprise a large part of the Palestinian state proposed according to the pre-1967 borders and usurp the biblical Birthright. And as it all plays out, until that biblical curse is remedied, the economy of the entire world suffers. Sages have long written that to deal with the House of Esau, Judah needs Joseph. It seems now that the world needs Joseph.

Priestly authority indicated with heavy incidence of extra Y in males

Also, in the Four Corners area the incidence of the extra-Y chromosome occurring in indigenous males is 20 to 24 times greater than anywhere else in the world including among population samples that are totally Jewish., although similar large concentrations have recently been located in Africa. This may also be due to the early assimilation of Gershonite priests with East M’nashe warriors. A priestly sect mixed with Joseph and never removed from its covenant should have some spiritual authority and voice in the disposition of the Birthright of Joseph and is certainly deserving of Levitical tithes.

In this inipi, Torah is honored and seeds of prayer are sown and sung with suffering while permuting the Divine Name with the awareness of covenant mercies associated with the Divine Name. From a people never removed from Covenant, but being “restored” to its understanding, this is powerful medicine.

Apache lodge follows Lakota tradition, OK’d by Lakota elder

The prescribed Lakota songs — the lodge is poured by sundancers who follow the Lakota traditions — like Hebrew songs are prayers to these Apache, who will sometimes ad-lib with their ancient Apache lodge songs.   These are being revived as Tenrivers, Cryingeagle and Cryingeagle’s daughter — a rising vocalist — learn and teach them to the people.  But every lodge opens with the traditional Lakota songs calling to the six directions for Wakhan Tanka (the Sacred Spirit) drummed on bear and elk hides stretched over hollow cottonwood frames.  The lodge also has been visited, scrutinized and embraced by a Lakota sundance intercessor who pours his own lodge for Native American Air Force personnel stationed in nearby Colorado Springs.

One of the pipe-loading songs — and the sundance piercing song which Uncle Shorty always adds to his prayers — begin with a series of Yah’s and Hey’s, which invoke the Wah.  Hebrew sages have called the Wah, “the ruach ha-Kodesh”  (or the Sacred Spirit) in the Divine Name.

Suffering intensifies for community’s prayer

During the third round, when the suffering is probably the most intense, the entire community prays one at a time in order … and silently prays that no one is too long-winded. After each audible prayer the re’eim gores and upwards of 130 degree steam from the grandfathers momentarily kisses all the sufferers, who usually pray for needs of others ahead of themselves.  In addition to prescribed Four Directions, Spirit Calling, Prayer and Exit Songs, each round usually includes other songs, each of the four rounds.  Each song is short but is sung four times, the suffering growing with each repetition.

Tenrivers prays for the Condor and Eagle to unite and blesses the Torah study and work of Eldersgate. Cryingeagle testifies to the Divine Name and its entitlement to Covenant mercy. Starman petitions for the humility through which blessings can flow. Lioneagle prays for food for his mountain lion brothers who have been spotted foraging in the alleys of Walsenburg. And all give a hearty “Hoa (Ah-ho)” when petition is made for a peaceful resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the future role these Apache may play as Creator’s hand to “gore” together even the Israeli and Palestinian nations. See “Israelis, Palestinians and Apache, Oh My,” at www.torah-voice.org/blog.

Cryingeagle judges from the moans and cries and intensity of prayer the moment when all declare “Aho mitakuyasi” (All my relations) and the flap of the inipi is thrown open.  All inside are offered an exit, but none leave. All are offered water, women first, but some refuse.  Between rounds the sufferers recline on Unci Makha (Mama Earth), who true to the FEMININE Hebrew noun – adamah – used to describe her, believe Mama to be alive.  At the same time these Apache were given the revelation about the re’eim’s identity as the “buffalo,” they learned “the Song of Moses.”  There, Mama is one of the two witnesses who carry out the Judgment for not obeying the Torah; the Heavens being the other.  But for now, Mama is a refuge between rounds onto Whom the sufferers recline and find temporary relief getting to know Her “intimately.”

‘Hot kisses’ from the Rock of Torah at final goring

Finally the last round when almost all of the strength of the inipi community is drained, all find it in them somehow to sit up as the last grandfathers enters.  Starman has saved for the last, the Rock of Torah, which fittingly takes two firemen working together in unison to maneuver on pitchforks into the inipi. The entrance is closed shutting out all light except the glowing grandfathers. It’s five-sided smile is unmistakeable as are its hot kisses as the re’eim gores away at the Sitra Achra (Opposing Side) dividing Joes and Joes and Joes and Jews.

See also “The Heavenly Sign for Which the World Awaits,” at www.torah-voice.org/pleiadesstarcluster.htm which parallels the “horns of the re’eim” with a recorded change at the time of the flood of Noach, in the star-cluster, “Pleiades” that could right itself and form a Cocav David (Star of David). If this should occur, the cluster forming the six-pointed star would have a blue hue in the night sky. Did Jesus of Nazareth refer to this as “the sign of the coming of the son of man … as in the days of Noach?” Is this the awaited Hopi “blue star” to end the Hopi religion?

Also, the exact words of this prophecy are closely guarded but the “Constellation of the White Buffalo” draws a White Buffalo comprising a shoulder (which pivots the horns) ALSO from the Pleiades, a backbone from Orion’s belt and the tail from Sirius.

War … in the absence of Ephraim

Leadership by ‘House of Israel’ in exile

can prevent more war, lead to peace

The head and crown region of biblical ‘Judea-Samaria’ are the possessions promised to the non-Jewish children of Rachel more than 2,700 years ago.Head and crown outlines ancient Birthright of Joseph in the fields of Samaria and the fields of Ephraim.

The prophet Jeremiah writes of Rachel, beloved wife of Jacob and mother of Joseph and Benjamin, weeping for her children because she fears they no longer exist. But in His attribute of Justice tempered with Mercy,Grandfather promises Rachel “your children shall come again to their own border.” (Jeremiah 31:15-18)

This remarkable cry of Rachel who rested in a tomb apart from Jacob 800 years before Jeremiah “hears and records” her intercession, is sandwiched between references to Ephraim, as the “bechor” (Firstborn entitled to the “bechorah” – Birthright) in verse 9, and as a young bull unaccustomed to the “yoke” of Torah in verse 18.

The House of Joseph

Rachel’s intercession links directly to the progeny of her youngest grandson through her firstborn, Joseph, but indirectly to all of the non-Jewish “House of Joseph.” This includes the Manassah of eastern Asia found by Rabbi Eliyahu Avichayil mostly among the Shinlung of Burma and Thailand; and East M’nashe (so far linked to 38 Native American tribes, including the five nations of the Apache and the Navajo. See reprint of Ancient American magazine research at www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm). Benjamin is also part of Joseph’s house defined in spiritual terms since the divining cup of Joseph was found in his sack. Benjamin’s divided loyalties between the House of Joseph in the north and the Jerusalem Temple in Benjamin’s Jerusalem precincts means Benjamin exists today among both the Jewish community and assimilated Joes.

Where is the voice of the Firstborn?

The Firstborn with the voice of the Firstborn and who was given the Birthright (the head and crown region depicted in the picture-story in the outline above, generally known as the “fields of Ephraim and the fields of the Shomron) ” is Ephraim. Where is Ephraim? Should theologians view this dramatic change in the Middle East as the “propitious time” for Ephraim to come out of exile to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian quagmire?

The best evidence of Ephraims whereabouts comes from Jewish scholar Yohanan Hevroni ben David (John Hully) who established Ephraim’s identity as the Beit ‘Omri (House of Omri) in Assyrian exile. ‘Omri was a northern king who was respected by the Assyrians for his military prowess.  More than 100 years after his death, the people of the Northern Kingdom of the House of Israel were called by the Assyrians, “the House of “Omri.” But outside of the land of Israel, ‘Omri is pronounced Gomeri. The prophesied intermarriage and assimilation between a Hebrew family from Shem and the Gomeri from Yaphet, begins to fulfill the earliest biblical prophesies by Noach that the descendants of Shem and Yaphet would somehow dwell together. (Genesis 9:27, 10:2)

Ezekiel 37:22 states that the Houses of Judah and Israel will be reunited “on the mountains of Israel.” The only mountainous region aside from the small Carmel range near Haifa and the Sinai now in the hands of Egypt is “Judea-Samaria.” The recent rocket attacks from Gaza indicate that the Palestinian leadership cannot be trusted with high ground.

The Torah forbids Israel to intermarry among the nations. Only the Jewish and Native American communities have remained relatively intact.  The assimilation of Shem and Yaphet then occurs through the exile of the Shemite Northern Kingdom to the lands of Gomer in Ancient Assyria.

Linguistic clues ID ‘Ephraim’ as ‘Kymri‘ (Cimmerians)

Linguistic research has identified the Beit Gomeri as the Cymri (Kymri) or Cimmerians, when the name passes through Greek and English. These are the root stock of the Anglo-Saxon and Celtic peoples who settled — after traversing Europe — primarily in the Scandinavian countries to the north, and along the coast of Normandy before crossing the British Channel to populate Scotland and Kymri (Wales). The Cimmerians also populated Ireland. This means that the non-Jewish House of Israel is loosely described as the descendants of “Cimmerian” settlers across Europe and the colonization of and by Europe in the Americas and around the world. In other words, Ephraim is a multi-national, multi-ethnic people fully assimilated into every culture, language and people around the world.

Ephraim was/is also the biblical “group name” for all of the Northern Tribes of Israel in their exile. True to the prophecy of the example of the marriage of Hosea and Gomer, Ephraim has been scattered to the four winds, without mercy and totally disowned by God. The transition of Grandfather’s relationship to the Northern Tribes is telling in Hosea 1.

The Covenant Name of Mercy

He still is heard by His Divine Name connoting the Attribute of Justice tempered with Mercy when Jezreel is named, (literally the “seed God will scatter”).  Jezreel (Yizra’el in Hebrew) also evidences a change of the name “Israel” to mean “scattered seed.”

Lo-ruhamah (Without Mercy) is a name given when Grandfather’s relationship changes from the Divine Name connoting Justice tempered with Mercy to “Elohim” (God) or He in His Attribute of Strict Justice. The same relationship exists when the third child, Lo-Ami “Not My People” is named.

That connection to the Mercy of God remained for Israelite East M’nashe, however, whose exile occurred from 17-23 years prior to that of the remaining House of Israel residing west of the Jordan. This is evident with the permutations of the Divine Name, (the Hebrew consonants Y,H and W and H) sung and drummed with different vowel sounds among virtually all Native tribes. Ancient Hebrew sages say this is the name of Grandfather when He deals with Israel according to the terms of His Covenant, “Justice tempered with Mercy. “ The name of Mercy is known by those never removed from His covenant, the House of Judah and East M’nashe.

‘Unaccustomed to the yoke’

The name of His Strict Justice is known by those renewed or restored to His covenant (largely via the Church). But true to Jeremiah’s prophesy this branch of assimilated Ephraim has either disdained or never fully returned to the Torah  it once counted “a strange thing.” As a bullock unaccustomed to the “yoke of TorahEphraim within the Church abandoned its Torah foundation. Clearly, however, Jesus was sent to these scattered sheep and not the faithful of Judah or East M’nashe because these had no need of a renewed or repaired covenant, Instead, exile makes Restoration of the understanding of their original covenant paramount.

Attack commemorates 21 years of stopped ears

The Israeli attack in response to hundreds of unanswered Gaza rockets until last week marked the 21st anniversary of the Madrid Peace initiative. During those talks, “The speech nobody heard,” which tied the Torah read during the 8 days of those talks to the subject of the talks was published on the religion page of The Jerusalem Post. Israel’s choice of last week to retaliate means that same speech is still relevant because neither the Israelis nor Palestinians have heard or taken to heart.

‘Speech Nobody Heard in Madrid’ outlines biblical peace, contiguous Palestinian State

Repeated by demand from Above are the essential facts, now made crucial with the destruction wrought by this war. Strategically, Israel may be preparing for a confrontation with Iran by first exhausting the supply of Hamas missiles and perhaps Hizbullah missiles. Or is Hamas causing Israel to expend its expensive Iron Dome defense capabilitities? Regardless, the human dimension to this war and its outcome dictates a contiguous Palestinian state with permanently established BIBLICAL borders conditioned upon the end of the violence and bloodshed and on agreement that the modern Jewish state has a right to exist – The Zechariah Plan. See www.torah-voice.org

The two readings from the Torah during the Madrid talks, emphasized that the tomb purchased by Abraham for his wife Sarah cost him way too much silver but he did not object.  Instead, Abraham made it clear to the Hittite from whom the tomb was purchased that it would be an “ACHUZAT kever.”

Arab confederacy claims possession of ‘ne’ot Elohim’ (tombs) in Israel

Achuzat is a Hebrew noun from the verb achaz which means to “grasp or hold” something. So the tomb was a burial (kever) “hold” and an early LEGAL entitlement of the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to the land promised their descendants by Grandfather. Others are the tombs of Rachel, the site of the Jerusalem Temple and a field purchased by Jeremiah at Anatot, a northern suburb of modern Jerusalem. Also, the “Kever Yoseif,” at Nablus, which was ancient Sh’chem. The tomb of Joshua, a descendant of Joseph, is believed to be located on the moutaintops of Itamar to the southeast of Nablus. Other tombs include that of Dan between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Ancient tombs establishing ancient Israeli “holds” to the land dot the landscape.

 Psalm 83 points out a confederation of Arab nations who conspire against Israel in order to boast that the “ne’ot Elohim” are “ours for a possession.” These are the “tombs of the righteous” as evidenced by King David’s description of being “made to lie down in a “ne’ot” (or green pasture). The forces opposing the Return of the House of Israel to be reunited with the House of Judah appear focused on claiming the spiritual stronghold of the “tombs.”

Christian tzaddik, Jewish tzaddikim, all ‘sons of God’

Just as Christians look to their tzaddik moshiah (righteous anointed one) on an “empty” cross, Orthodox Jews often pilgrimage to tombs of the righteous believing the tzaddik (righteous one) lives with one foot in this world and the other in the World To Come. Having overcome his/her evil inclination, he/she intercedes in both worlds for whomever honors him/her by visiting him/her while alive or his/her final resting place. This intercession is clearly stated in the case of Jesus, who like all tzaddikim were known as “sons of God,” but according to the meaning of this identity according to Halachah. See www.torah-voice.org/thedisputations.htm.

Two conflicting nations, peoples in womb of Rebecca

The Torah reading also established that Rebecca, wife of Isaac was having a difficult pregnancy. The Hebrew indicates someone was “running around” inside her womb. She went to a prophet who explained that she would give birth to TWO NATIONS and TWO l’umim (singular l’om). These are different and conflicting mindsets, ideologies and lifestyles. Rebecca was told Jacob and Esau would be rivals from the time they emerged from the womb and would NEVER find harmony. One would always be in ascendancy over the other. It is natural to see how this prophecy has been fulfilled in terms of the faith of Esau and the faith of Jacob.

The account of Jacob’s faith is recorded in Torah and the books of the Prophets. But Esau, the natural adversary of his brother, has gravitated toward the Koran, and the most radical interpretations of it. The words of Esau’s blessing by his father Isaac are telling. After Isaac is deceived by Rebecca into giving the blessing of the Firstborn to Jacob instead, Esau is told:

Is war a call for State of Israel to repent? Are Palestinians aggrieved?

“Behold of the oil of the Earth shall be your dwelling and of the dew of the heavens from above. By your SWORD you shall live, but your brother (Jacob) you shall serve; yet it shall be that when you are TAREED (aggrieved), you may cast off his yoke upon your neck.”  (Genesis 27:40)

This is not your ordinary grievance. This is a grievance that is tied to the blessing Jacob received, which his father, Isaac, had intended for Esau.

The sages of Torah believe Esau’s right to throw off the yoke is conditioned upon the Torah disobedience of Israel. If Israel observes the Torah faithfully and not casually, the yoke on Esau remains but if Israel observes only casually, Esau not only throws off the yoke, but becomes Grandfather’s “sword” against Israel.

The sword of Allah for Israel’s disobedience, Hamas embodies Esau

This is evidenced by the vow made centuries later by all of Israel for all time at Mt. Horeb to BOTH Grandfather and His Allah! The vow in Deuteronomy 29:11ff clarifies that the blessings in the previous chapter for Torah obedience come from Grandfather and the curses alluded to “by the sword” come from His AllahIslam or the form of radical Islam adopted by Hamas. This means Hamas is spiritually embodying the “House of Esau.”

Another biblical prophet, Obadiah, the only prophet whose words are recorded in the Bible who is descended from Esau, warned his people (today’s Palestinians) that when Jacob would return to his possessions (which began occurring about 1917), he would find those possessions occupied by the House of Esau . Further those Palestinians who remain in this Birthright region, would be annihilated. (Obadiah 17ff). This establishes the spiritual identity of the “occupiers” as Palestinians who occupy Jacob’s possessions, not the other way around as the British mandate and the media have asserted for the past 30 years. “Israeli occupied Palestinian (or Arab) territory” is how the Birthright has been falsely characterized by media since it became “No Man’s Land.”

Throwing off the yoke tied to ‘united strength’ of Arab confederacy

The feeling that Esau may now “throw off the yoke” because Israel has become largely a secular (meaning non-observant) Jewish state comes at a time when the Arab world is feeling its oats led by the Moslem Brotherhood. The Brotherhood now controls Egypt and has helped Hamas overcome a major obstacle. When Hamas uprooted control of the Gaza from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in 2007, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak agreed with Israel to close the borders of Gaza. Reopening those borders appears to be the major term from Hamas of this cease-fire, and a major concern to the Israeli leadership due to the likelihood that Hamas will simply re-arm.

The top Hamas leader in exile, Khaled Mashaal, is stirring up the Arab world with talk that the 22 Arab nations are now stronger than Israel if they act in concert. Overall, Hamas is in a strong position to negotiate a truce deal, Mashaal claims while safe himself from Israeli attack. He cites the new diplomatic support since the Arab Spring, Hamas’ popularity in the Gaza and the large arsenal of rockets.

The Koran’s ‘holy war’ in two parts

Mashaal’s comments seem to be code words to the radicals among the Koran-faithful that the Arab Spring has united the Arab nations and their duty is to now “win the war.”

The Koran dictates this holy war in two parts. First there is the war of peace, which means one makes a treaty with his enemies ONLY until he becomes the stronger party. So “peace”, “truce”, or “cease-fire” in the Koran do not have the same meanings to the Western world. This may explain why it is necessary for Israel to always exact more force than has been exacted against her. Anything less is a sign of weakness to the radicals who follow Islam. When the Koran-faithful perceive themselves to be the stronger party, then the second part of the war kicks in.

War to the death

The war to the death applies to all lands that were at any time under the domain of Islam according to the literature disseminated by Hamas in the late 1980s. That would include Israel and Jerusalem although Muhammad never came to Jerusalem and the city is mentioned only in connection with a dream of Muhammad that his horse ascended to Heaven from the Rock today under the Dome of the Rock, the site where Isaac was offered and elevated.

Wells dug by Isaac, father of Jacob and Esau could locate border of Palestinian state

Isaac succeeded his father Abraham in the Torah portion read as the war erupted last week. He mystically offers a solution that could lead to a permanent end to hostilities … if Ephraim will step forward and claim his Birthright and Israeli and Palestinian archaeologists can locate the wells and Negev sites of Sitnah, Esek and Rehovot.

Sitnah, from the Hebrew “Satan” and Esek connote “enmity” and “vexation.” Wells dug by Isaac’s servants were claimed by the Philistines in whose land Isaac then sojourned. But when Rehovot was dug, the Philistines did not protest and Isaac was able to sojourn in peace. Find these wells somewhere in the Negev and you have the eastern border for a Palestinian State, which should minimally include the fertile Sh’felah and its five crop rotations yearly. The northern border may be alluded to by the prophet Zechariah as the Israeli cities of Ashquelon or Ashdod. (See my blog on “Boundary Stones”). If so, this would expedite the state with the infrastructure of a modern Israeli city. But all of Judea-Samaria would be absent of Palestinians and permanent borders would be established between Esau and Jacob.

Bush Road Map, Pre-’67 lines usurp biblical birthright, relate to economic curse

The Bush Road Map to Peace in the Middle East is alleged by Apache (Gershonite priests assimilated with never uncovenanted East M’nashe, www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm) to be at the root of the present economic curse on America and all nations who side with America in promoting a Palestinian state on Ephraim’s Birthright. The Road Map would have forged a Palestinian state out of the pre-1967 lines, which would have sandwiched Israel between Gaza and Hamas to the south and west and the formerly called “West Bankof the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan to the north and east.

Curiously those pre-1967 borders define the outline of a crown atop a man’s head, the head and crown falling entirely within the borders of Rachel’s kids.

Ephraim needed to assert Birthright claim

If Ephraim will stand and claim his Birthright, then “Judea-Samaria,” which has been the biblical name for the “West Bank” for the past 2,500 years, will be removed from the table as part of a Palestinian state. The region must accomplish what its name is prophesied to do: Return, reunite and reconcile the never reconciled families of the House of Judah (led by the kingdom of the House of David) and the House of Israel (led by the monarchy of the House of Joseph replaced by the Samaritans when exiled). In that dispute today mostly over Halachah (or how one practically walks out the commands of Torah), unless Palestinians would be willing to become part of the separate l’om (people) of Jacob through observance of Torah or minimally accept the Seven Laws of Noach, which preclude murder and “hamas” (violence), Palestinians would be out of place.

Hamas rockets abuse Palestinian role in peace, betray insincerity but Zechariah Plan awaits

Grandfather’s way is to close one door before opening another. The door to peace with Hamas rule of the Gaza is shutting. The Palestinian abuse of even closed borders (to acquire thousands of rockets) betrays an insincere partner for peace until that leadership is reformed or replaced.

A concept drawing of a contiguous Palestinian state according to the borders mentioned in Zechariah 9: The Zechariah Plan.

Regardless, a door to redraw a separate and contiguous and peaceful Palestinian state should open when the smoke clears from this war, after Israel has preempted Hamas rockets and possibly Hezbullah rockets and marginalized Syria’s chemical agent capability and taken out Iran’s nuclear reactor. Until then, the ultra-Nationalistic pride of the Palestinian people, which Zechariah wrote also would be removed – must be removed. When Palestinians are serious about peace, the Zechariah Plan – based on Zechariah 9 – awaits.

 

Zechariah envisioned contiguous Palestinian state, Return of Joes

This plan redraws the Palestinian state to include the Gaza and contiguous regions north and east of the Gaza, including parts of the fertile Sh’felah, which enjoys up to five crop rotations a year. The modern Israeli cities of Ashquelon and/or Ashdod are mentioned by Zechariah as possible northern borders. Certainly with Gaza’s infrastructure bombed to Hell, these two cities would meet that need. The leading reason the World Bank decided earlier this year that the Palestinians are not ready to declare a state relates to inadequate infrastructure. The present war has aggravated this shortcoming.

In exchange for this far better alternative than Judea-Samaria, the Palestininan population would vacate en masse the “fields of Ephraim” and “the fields of the Shomron” or the Birthright possessions of Joseph, which would become the possession of neither Jews nor Palestinians, but could be annexed by the State of Israel for the Return of the House of Joseph.

Most important factor holding back jobs not addressed by candidates

Biblical curse at root of recession;

Bush family, US State Dept. involvements exposed

H”b

 

The fields of Samaria and Ephraim represented by the head and crown region comprise the biblical Birthright of Joseph to which his mother, Rachel was promised Joseph’s desendants would return.

The most important question to ask about what is holding back jobs and the American (and world) economies has not been asked of either presidential candidate. Consequently, an honest-to-God biblical curse worsens by the day.

An economic recession/depression has hit at a time when corruption and distrust in Washington, corporate greed and a usury-driven capitalistic system are squeezing the life out of the Middle Class. Alvin Toffler’s prophesied, “Future Shock” is materializing before our eyes. The socio-economic and racial divides in America are being brought to a head like festering boils. All of this makes this election about the spiritual needs/condition of America and that unasked and still unanswered question which directly affects our economic prosperity: Whether either candidate would continue to press Israel for a Palestinian state in the Birthright of Joseph. See our blog titled, “Economic curse is biblical for tampering with Birthright,”

The Birthright tied to economic, spiritual health

The same media who has for the past 30 years slandered and propagandized the Birthright to which Joseph’s descendants are promised their return as “Israeli-occupied Arab/Palestinian territories,” has been strangely silent on the vetting of either candidate on this pivotal political, foreign policy and as it turns out domestic, economic issue. It is also the No. 1 issue affecting America’s economic health when it is understood how economic health is tied to a nation’s spiritual health.

3D map of Judea-Samaria reveals it to be the high ground to which Joseph will return to be reunited with Judah and therefore not suitable as a Palestinian state.

For those fellow voters disappointed that neither candidate had the courage to address the real problems festering in America, I’d like to break it down into spiritual terms that may help one make that crucial choice.

 The desecration of the grave of an Israelite prophet

 On July 7, 2007, shortly after the Native commemoration of the 400th anniversary of Jamestown ending the failed experiment called, “Manifest Destiny,” – how could it be called a success when it relied on more than 500 broken treaties? – a message was delivered from Apache-Israelite prophetess Ada Fasthorse to the George W. Bush White House. The message warned the president that the economic curse descending on America would grow much worse unless he secured the skulls and bones of the revered Apache leaders, Geronimo and Mangus Colorados and other young Apache used in unclean rituals at Yale University and they were returned in a sacred manner.

Bush ignored her warning and the curse intensified the next year with the economic collapse.

Apache, Cherokee and other Native American spiritual elders have linked U.S. foreign policy with Israel and the Palestinians to the skullduggery of the Bush family beginning with W’s grandfather and H.W.’s father, Prescott Bush. In addition to aiding the Nazi cause and using Holocaust labor to his advantage, Prescott’s spiritual resume includes leading the raiding party at Ft. Sill, OK, to desecrate Geronimo’s grave.

Apache, Navajo linked to ancient Israelite priesthood

Grandfather Bush may not have known at the time that Geronimo was an Israelite prophet descended from the land of Elijah and Elisha, through the intermarriage of Gershonite priests and the warriors of East M’nashe. He probably did not understand since all of America and all of the Native American nations themselves did not then realize that the five nations of the Apache, the Navajo and 32 other Athap(b)ascan Language Group nations minimally comprising East M’nashe, remained covenanted with the God of Israel. (Note the landmark research submitted for peer review and published in the March 2011 edition of Ancient American magazine, “Israelite East M’nashe Traced to Four Corners,” reprinted with permission at www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm.

The strongest evidence of this connection is the weave used on Navajo rugs identified by Rabbi Chaim Richman of the Revived Sanhedrin as the same weave used by the Gershonites on tabernacle and Temple tapestries and the breastplate of the ancient Hebrew high priest.)

Spiritual root of an economic curse materializes with ‘Road Map’

This identity of East M’nashe at the Sacred Four Corners, since East M’nashe like the House of Judah was never removed from its covenant, means wrongs done the Apache nation also were done to part of Israel. Bush may not have known but the ha-Satan to which his son and grandson would later vow as members of Yale’s secretive and Satanic Skull and Bones society certainly knew this means to curse America.  The desecration of the grave of an Israelite prophet comes with a curse. The Bush family had made possible a means to spread this curse nationwide and even across the world.

With ha-Satan’s help deceiving the Religious Right, the curse made its way to the White House with the Bush presidencies. They materialized into the “Road Map to Peace in the Middle East,” whose attempt to steal the Birthright of Joseph has cursed all of America and consequently the American and world economies.

Road Map foreign policy the product of ‘metote’; U.S. tampers with holy ground

The infamous “Road Map” was the brainchild of minds under the influence of “metote,” (the fog of the mind, which comes with an Apache curse). The curse of a prophet of Israel with the help of “metote,” resulted in a “foggy” foreign policy with Israel, that had Israelis questioning whether the Bush and his secretary of state were anti-semites.

Within three days of the declared cease-fire between Iraq and American and allied forces in 1991, former Secretary of State James Baker delivered the ultimatum for H.W. Bush to Israel that it must halt settlement and infrastructure development in the (former) “West Bank (of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan)” or lose $10 million in loan guarantees on which the Israeli economy was then dependent. This was the region’s name for 19 years but its biblical name for the past 2,700 years has been, “Judea-Samaria.” The portion of the Birthright that would become part of a Palestinian state according to the pre-1967 armistice lines, is outlined by the “head and crown” in the partzuf above. A partzuf is a pictorial outline or a picture that somehow outlines or tells a story.

The story of the head and crown

Contextually, this head and crown can and does speak for itself. See the Scripture accompanying the logo at www.torah-voice.org. But it may be helpful to point out the outline’s origin in the prophesies by Jacob and Moses just before their deaths and related to the fate of the 12 tribes of Israel. “The blessing of the deep will be on the crown of the head of Joseph and the n’zir (one separated or exiled) from his brothers,” they each stated. The outline is confirmed by the modern Israeli city known as Rosh Ha-Ayin, the “eye of the head,” located at precisely that position. The prophet Isaiah clarified that this n’zir was the “preserved of Israel” never removed from Covenant and whose Restoration was sandwiched between the command to the anointed servant to “raise up the tribes of Jacob” and “become a light to the nations .” (Isaiah 49:6ff).

The partzuf above includes the fields of Samaria and the fields of Ephraim, which comprise the Birthright territories of Joseph over which Rachel cried and Creator heard, (Jeremiah 31:15-18) and to which the descendants of Joseph are promised their return to be reunited with the descendants of the House of Judah (Jewish Israel).

History of Bush political skulduggery; Sell out at Gulf War slander against Birthright

Bush and Baker sold out Israel for the pledge of Arab “non-participation” in the Gulf War. Their logic for targeting Saddam still lies buried in secrecy but leaks have surfaced.

Associated Press and Newsweek investigative reporter Robert Parry exposed a whitewashed Congressional inquiry into allegations that Vice President Bush, President Reagan, former CIA director William Casey (who directed the 1980 Reagan-Bush campaign) and a host of active and inactive CIA agents sabotaged President Jimmy Carter’s efforts to obtain the release of the 52 hostages held by Tehran until after the Reagan-Bush administration came to power. Bush had feared an “October surprise,” that would re-elect Carter, after learning from former Texas Senator John Connally that Carter had arranged through Israeli contacts for sensitive military parts to be shipped to Iran from Amsterdam in exchange for the release of the hostages before the 1980 election.  The Republican conspirators made Iran a “sweeter deal,”  that extended the imprisonment of the hostages and defeated Carter.

Evidence intentionally ignored

The congressional inquiry intentionally ignored the evidence and the only congressman who was part of the House investigative committee who wanted to write a dissenting opinion of this travesty of American history and politics found his staff curtailed until he also fell into line.  Parry brought out the facts substantiated by Israeli, Iranian and Russian intelligence after he discovered the hidden “X-files” disputing the inquiry in a ladies bathroom converted into storage in the Sam Rayburn building in Washington. The truth was eventually published in his 1999 book, Secrecy & Privilege: Rise of the Bush Dynasty from Watergate to Iraq.”

Saddam’s invasion of Kuwait was actually justified because Western oil companies were drilling directional wells from Kuwait into Iraq knowing President Bush would “have their backs.”  Therefore the 1991 Persian Gulf War is understood in Arab nations as a “provocation” by America to attempt to steal Iraqi oil which could then be imported at less cost than America could produce oil domestically.

Spiritually, America in choosing Iraq over helping Israel develop the infrastructure in the Birthright region, got 20 years of Iraq, a nation on the infamous soil of ancient Babylon, which the Bible states is perpetually cursed.

Birthright tampering non-partisan; A curse known by its ‘tread marks’

The Bush state departments together with the Clinton and Obama state departments have since all tampered with this sacred Birthright to some degree. The pre-1967 lines first proposed as a Palestinian state by the George W. Bush “Road Map to Peace in the Middle East,” therefore has brought a curse on America and the world.

The curse may never have appeared evident, except for the “right-brain” logic of Apache medicine people. “The wheel that has rolled over you has left its tread marks,” Membreno leader Jimmy Tenrivers explains. “Geronimo’s head was taken. The Road Map outlines a man’s head in the Birthright region.”

Obama’s tightrope mirrors late King Hussein; Still ‘Us vs. Them’ nation

During the Obama Administation much has been made of the “appearance” of a strained relationship with Israel and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Outsiders have noted the long friendship between “Bibi” and candidate Mitt Romney and suspected some of this to be political contrivance. But Obama also greatly admired the late King Hussein of Jordan. King Hussein was Israel’s closest ally in the Middle East, but always practiced “distance diplomacy,” knowing if he appeared too great a friend, he would face opposition from the PLO and various radical and militant Islamic organizations. He was successful in walking this tightrope, which Obama to some extent appears to be imitating with similar success.

Obama also has been criticized for “apologizing” to Moslem-ruled or controlled nations in the Middle East. A video earlier surfaced showing the president praying in a mosque in perfect Arabic. Here’s the rub, people. Do we or do we not believe in religious liberty in this nation? Our Constitiution guarantees it but we do not live it or think it or breathe it or feel it or believe it. We are still largely a nation of “Us vs. Them.” (See www.torah-voice.org/Timeofthewe.htm.)

The role of Islamophobic heretics, Shoebat, Caner, Jones

This is the mentality that resulted in the Religious Right earlier deceived by George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, again being deceived. Islamophobia – promoted by heretics like the Palestinian Walid Shoebat whose feigned conversion as an Islamic terrorist made him the darling of the Religious Right; Ergun Caner, defrocked dean at Liberty University after also lying about an Islamic past; and the racist Pastor Terry Jones in Florida have clouded this race with fear and mistrust. Caner’s support led to the mistrust giving a Mormon high priest a Christian pulpit at the university founded by Jerry Falwell. What the Religious Right will do in the name of racism, bigotry and mistrust.

Shoebat’s heresy has been adopted/taught by Christian evangelical ministers the like of Tim Lahare, Chuck Missler, John Hagee, Pat Robertson and Joel Richardson, who should all know better. He has shared at Jewish community centers, Jewish business leagues, the Harvard Law School, UCLA, USC, the University of Georgia, Washington University and Penn St., The Palestinian heretic has been given favorable publicity by Bill O’Reilly and Neil Cavuto of Fox and has duped others on ABC, CBS, NBC and BBS radio before his heresy was exposed. And let us not forget, the Mormon Glenn Beck.

Beck refused to mention Birthright issue on Fox programs

Beck was contacted by more than a dozen Cherokee spiritual leaders, others on my House of Joseph email list and personal friends who sent gifts with their letters. He was asked simply to mention during his last programs on Fox that the pre-1967 lines he was examining as a Palestinian state usurped the biblical Birthright of Joseph. He refused to do so.

Shoebat ‘s ‘miniscule’ heresy leads to major attack on Obama

Shoebat claimed that the “mark of the Beast” in Revelation has a translation other than “666” in the accepted Greek text. If the middle Greek letter were rotated 90 degrees, he said the mark would read in Arabic, “in the name of Allah.” This, coupled with the Islamic faith of President Obama’s father, ignited a wave of paranoia that Obama was a Moslem himself, or as John McCain corrected a woman misinformed by a fourth or fifth hand account of Shoebat’s heresy, “an Arab.”

However, Shoebat based his interpretation on the “miniscule” Greek text added to the Codex Vaticanus after the 15th Century. Miniscule Greek did not exist at the time of John’s vision on the isle of Patmos. The Greek “uncial” letters John saw in his vision do not at all resemble the later miniatures.

Sound exegesis be damned; Satan has America headed for fall

Sound exegesis be damned, the Religious Right especially in the South and Midwest where racial divides have largely been swept under the rug rather than healed, had its “sounding” around which to conceal a campaign of hatred, bigotry and racism. And so, here we are, a nation divided, and ready to fall.

When ha-Satan tries to pull a fast one like this over our eyes, we need to realize there are frequently other motives at play which ha-Satan wishes to conceal in doing so.

Satan’s bold move to have a surrogate president

For instance, there is this alarm. Mitt Romney is a “high priest” of the order of Melchizedek in the LDS Church. The LDS were founded by a teenager rebelling at all religions. Joseph 156 Smith 510=666, received his revelation from an “angel of light” who called himself Moroni (MO-RONE-EE). This same Moroni appears toward the end of the Book of Mormon, divined by Smith using a “seer stone” given to him by Moroni. Four years before the Book of Mormon was published in 1830, Smith used the same stone to hunt buried treasure for which he was convicted of “glasslooking fraud” in BAIN-bridge County, NY in 1826.

When Moroni appears late in the book, he challenges all who read the book to pray about whether it is true and “ask for a witness in their hearts.” But any LDS or LDS candidate who would first read the Torah would know the standard for determining Truth and false prophets is whether their words line up with the Torah. But someone who has never read the Torah and does not know this admonition is easy pluckings for a book camoflauged with the flowery poetry of Isaiah and the basic story of the King James Version.

Smith’s revelations given by Moroni conflict with Torah making Smith a false prophet and surrogate of Satan. See the only review of the Book of Mormon commissioned by Native spiritual elders at www.torah-voice.org/BoMDCT.htm. The book also represents a perversion of Native history and migrations, which Native spiritual elders shall soon address.

Frauds discredit Joseph Smith; LDS Church doctrine

Smith also falsified a later writing he called the “Book of Abraham,” within a collection that also conflicts with Torah with a book included called, “The Book of Moses.” In addition to committing the heavy sin of adding to the words of Moses, the collection called “Pearl of Great Price,” is the source of the most strange LDS doctrine and beliefs. But since Salt Lake City became aware of Smith’s fraud, neither the Book of Moses nor the Book of Abraham nor any of the strange doctrine these bogus works have produced have been taken back, revised or even edited.

With the “Book of Abraham,” Smith claimed an Egyptian papyri traveling with a mummy show in New York was actually the story of Abraham offering up Isaac written in Egyptian hieroglyphs. The papyri showed a man with a raised knife and a man lying on a stone slab beneath him. (Anyone who knows the Torah would know right away that the altar was not a stone slab). But when the Rosetta Stone was discovered after Smith’s death, making it possible to correctly decipher hieroglyphs, the papyri turned out to be a page from the funerary text, “Book of Breathings of the Egyptian Book of the Dead.”

Biblical warnings about Joseph Smith and his ‘angel of light’

The New Testament warns that ha-Satan will come as an “angel of light” and also warns that the spirit of rebellion under which young Smith was questioning religion, is as the “spirit of witchcraft.” Smith’s later Doctrine and Covenants changed the “everlasting covenant God made with all of Israel for all time,” to the most strange, “new and everlasting covenant of the sealing in Temple marriage.”

These Satanic origins of the Book of Mormon are eclipsed by the book’s Satanic purpose.

LDS hold to beliefs that usurp the legitimate Aaronic priesthood identified with an extra Y chromosome in the male lineage. As a “high priest” within the LDS Church, Mitt Romney has himself usurped this priesthood.

The LDS also believe the inheritance of the Israelite tribes of Joseph is here in America, thereby usurping the Birthright of Joseph in the fields of Ephraim and Samaria in the land of Israel. LDS believe the New Jerusalem will be near Independence, Mo., and a temple to rival the temple in Jerusalem will be built there.

LDS doctrine usurps Right of Return of all tribes of Israel; separates ‘Jewish’ Israelis

Finally LDS believe all of the other tribes of Israel except those of the Jews will have their inheritance here in America. This would usurp the biblical right of return of all tribes of Israel to their ancestral inheritances on the one hand, and leave the Jewish people isolated and at the mercy of Palestinian aggressors on the other. For more information, see “The Spiritual Dimension of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict http://www.torah-voice.org/blog/2012/05/31/the-spiritual-dimension-of-the-israeli-palestinian-conflict/.

It appears that neither candidate is on the right side of this issue with both fully intending to press Israel for a Palestinian state within the pre-1967 armistice lines. The Birthright continues to be tampered with and the curse – so long as Geronimo’s skull remains an object for unclean divinations, also continues.

Shades of 2008

In 2008, we were also undecided. Again this Birthright issue was not raised. But Creator gave us a word in our weekly inipi (purification lodge). “Why don’t you vote for the choice of the four-legged if you still can’t decide for yourself?” That choice was pretty clear since we weekly renew our covenant with the four-legged, winged and creeping things on earth (Hosea 2:18-20), and Sarah Palin was proud of killing our Wolf brothers just for sport.

This year the choice is equally as clear. We hear in inipis, “America is racially divided and the best way to heal this rift is giving White America four more years to overcome its prejudice.”

‘ … you just might find, you get who you need.’

To paraphrase Mick Jagger and his angelic choir, “You can’t always get WHO you want … but you just might find, you get WHO (Creator) thinks you need.’ All three major monotheistic faiths hold that the authority given to a nation’s leader is given by the Creator, who sets up and tears down kingdoms for Creator’s more grand purposes.

All spiritual matters weighed and considered, the best way America can learn this spiritual lesson hindering its Divine destiny and path, is to re-elect President Obama. But America has a choice. If America votes against healing this rift, be warned that the election of an LDS Melchizedek priest to the presidency could be the furtherance of ha-Satan’s agenda in these Last Days.

We run the risk of marrying a religion Satan invented with the most powerful office on Earth to steal the Birthright of Joseph and cement the curse.

Be warned.

Economic curse is ‘biblical’ for tampering with Birthright

The head and crown above designate the “fields of Ephraim and Samaria” or the Birthright of Joseph.

Global economic concerns, climate changes and increasingly weird weather prompt the question, “Could we be cursed?”

The wisest man who ever lived wrote in Proverbs 26:2, “a curse without a cause does not alight.” Genesis 12:3 states explicitly the cause of a “biblical” curse:

“I will bless those who bless you (Abraham) and those who curse you will cause themselves to be cursed.”

Have we or our foreign policies cursed Abraham or his seed?  Has America and the world somehow insulted Abraham or his firstborn, Ishmael?  Have we slandered the son or grandson of the Promise, Isaac and Jacob?  Or have we taken up the offense of Esau against Jacob?

A three-dimensional map shows the “mountains of Israel” on which Ezekiel 37 states the Houses of Judah and Joseph will reunite to be almost entirely in Judea-Samaria. This mandates a separate, contiguous state for Palestinians. The prophet Zechariah alludes to a state in the ancient Plain of the Philistines, never fully conquered by ancient Israel.

Foreign policy, media usurp, malign Birthright

Bringing current events into view, the proposed Palestinian state according to the pre-1967 armistice lines offers a sure cause for a biblical curse.  Those lines usurp the Birthright ceded by Jacob to his son, Joseph, “the fields of Samaria and the fields of Ephraim.”  Further, Obadiah, — the only biblical prophet descended from Esau – wrote that when Jacob would return to these fields, defined by the head and crown in the outline above, he would find them “occupied” by the “House of Esau.”

The fields of Samaria and Ephraim are seen to comprise the entirety of the “West Bank” of the (former) Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan north of Jerusalem.

As a student in graduate theological seminary in the mid-1980s, I worked part-time as a copy editor on a major metropolitan daily.  For stories I edited about the Middle East,  I made a “macro” key for my editing terminal to change The Associated Press and New York Times characterizations of “Israeli-occupied Arab/Palestinian territories” to the more correct and less editorializing, “Israeli-administered territories.”  I was almost fired for doing so.

‘Not one shall remain from the House of Esau’

Yes, American and World public, the media has either ignorantly or intentionally deceived and brainwashed you for more than 30 years by describing this region as “Israeli-occupied.”  The Bible stated more than 2,500 years before the Jacob-Esau enmity materialized into today’s Israeli-Palestinian conflict, that those who would be found in these fields “when Jacob was returned to his possessions” are the true biblical occupiers.  Obadiah also tried to warn his own people — Palestinians … and presumably Palestinian refugees who also would be returned to this region — all would be annihilated.  “Not one shall remain from the House of Esau.”

Birthright set aside for reunion of Joes with Jews

Now is not the blog to explain, but essentially, the Prophets foretell a reunion of the houses of Judah (the Jewish people today comprising the modern Jewish state) and Joseph, a non-Jewish branch of Israel still in exile and rediscovering its identity.  While the “Joes” are still in a preparation stage, the venue for their return and reconciliation with Judah was foretold in Ezekiel 37 as “the mountains of Israel.”  Discounting the small Carmel range near Haifa and the foothills of Mount Hermon in Lebanon, Judea-Samaria is the only mountainous region in Israel remaining without the Sinai, now in Egyptian hands.  Thus a voice is heard in Jeremiah 31:15-18 of Rachel weeping for her children millenia after her death.  Yet she secures the promise that her children will return to their own ancestral borders, the fields of Samaria and Ephraim.

These mountain plains and valley fields were known for 19 years as part of the “West Bank of the (former) Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.”  But for thousands of years their biblical name has been Judea-Samaria.  This name alludes to the prophesied reunion between the Houses of Judah and the still-exiled House of Israel led by the House of Joseph.  This is because the Northern Kingdom (today Samaria) was displaced by the Samaritans at the time of the Assyrian exile.   Therefore another region of the land of Israel – much more favorable and fertile — is set aside for a Palestinian state.  See our extensive blogs on the “Zechariah Plan,” www.torah-voice.org/blog, calling for mutual disengagements and modeled after an abbreviated and more humane version of the Cherokee Removals, the plan’s international precedent.

Bush Road Map to Peace in the Middle East ‘cursed’

The U.S. State Department plan to press Israel to cede this Birthright of Jacob to “Esau” – called the ”Bush Road Map to Peace in the Middle East,” is quite justly “cursed.”  The nations who join with the U.S. in pressing Israel to cede this region are party to this curse, which would result in the death of millions of Palestinians and presumably Israelis as well.  A note sent by courier from Apache prophetess Ada Fasthorse — greatest granddaughter of Geronimo — to the White House and received by special assistant to President George W. Bush, Andrew Ciaferdini, informed President Bush in July 2007 that his Road Map to Peace in the Middle East had brought a curse on America and instructed how to avoid the curse “growing much worse.”  Bush ignored her warning.

Apache recently identified along with the Navajo and 32 Athap(b)ascan Language Group Nations (minimally) as a remnant of the Gershonite priests who assimilated with Israelite East M’nashe, www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm, also believe a curse comes with a cause, which will be evident.

Ceding ‘head and crown’ region to Palestinian state ‘beheads’ Joseph

“The tread marks that run over you are why you are cursed,” said Jimmy Tenrivers, a Membreno medicine man and spiritual leader in southern Colorado.  He added that an Apache curse is also accompanied by “metote, ” confusion or the “fog of the mind.”

That  Israelite East M’nashe was exiled 17-23 years before the remainder of the non-Jewish House of Israel, also called the “Northern Kingdom,” under a different set of circumstances means East M’nashe and its priests went into its exile as the “preserved of Israel.” They were never removed from Covenant.  Therefore their prophets, like Ada’s grandfather, Geronimo, saw visions and experienced prophetic dreams.  See “Israeli’s, Palestinians and Apache, Oh My!” at www.torah-voice.org/blog.

Curiously Genesis 49 and Deuteronomy 33 describe in the prophecies of Jacob and Moses a region that forms the outline of a “head and crown.” This outline (Heb. Partzuf) is formed out of the northern two-thirds of the proposed Palestinian state in the former “West Bank of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.” Ceding this region to a Palestinian state then effectively “beheads” the Birthright — this head and crown region.

Bushes brought ‘bad Karma’ into Oval office

At this stage of the curse, it may be insufficient for America simply to amend its foreign policy with Israel and the Palestinians.  See our “Zechariah Plan,” www.torah-voice.org/Biblical_road_map.htm, the biblical alternative conditional, contiguous Palestinian state.  This curse must be dealt with at its roots.  This will require the involvement of the Bush family.

A great and unchangeable spiritual law exists:  “Whatsoever a man sows, that also shall he reap.”  Another way of explaining this is “Karma.”

The Bush family twice brought “bad” Karma into the Oval office. H.W. Bush was given the choice after the ceasefire in 1991 with Saddam, to support Israel’s infrastructure development in the Birthright region.  Instead, he sent Secretary of State James Baker to Israel to threaten Israel with three ultimatums to which Bush and Baker had agreed with Arab nations before the war; insurance to deter these nations from aligning with Saddam against the U.S. and its allies.

H.W. Bush, Baker threaten economic sanctions against Israel

Bush through Baker would withhold millions in U.S. loan guarantees on which the Israeli economy was then dependent, unless Israel agreed to a Palestinian state according to the pre-1967 armistice lines that usurp the Birthright.  But Baker also demanded that Israel extradite Robert and Rochelle Manning www.torah-voice.org/manning.htm in violation of its treaty with the U.S. forbidding political extraditions (showing the undue influence in the Baker State Department of the Anti-Arab American Discrimination Committee (ADC)).  New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, then writing for the Village Voice, also was “used” extensively by the ADC to plant misinformation and the ADC agenda in the media.  Finally, the ultimatum by Baker snubbed at the time by then Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, required Israel to abandon existing settlements and not build more.

Before these ultimatums, Israel had slowly been addressing the disparities between Israeli and Palestinian infrastructure.   The Israeli busses and bus stations were modern, well lighted and clean; the Palestinian equivalents not as nice.  Lighting in Jewish settlements was with quartz halogen lighting.  Palestinian settlements were lit up in yellow light.  There were also segregated school systems.   The Bush ultimatums, coming four years into the Israeli-Palestinian conflict which was intensifying, hardened the resolve of the settlers and divided the Israeli government on the question of settlements. America would pay for its intervention and interference with 20 years in Iraq (ancient Babylon, which the prophet Jeremiah stated would be eternally cursed and never rebuilt and those who would attempt to rebuild it would also be cursed).

‘Beheading of Joseph and theft of his crown’

Native American spiritual elders understand the black roads that come from  tampering with a Birthright.    Native wisdom also understands the ill-fated Road Map which usurps the Birthright in “right-brain terms” as the “beheading of Joseph and theft of his crown.”  The ”tread mark” for this understanding is the head of the revered Apache leader, Geronimo, which met with its own “skullduggery.”

Geronimo was dug up by a raiding party at his Ft. Sill, OK., gravesite. Prescott Bush, father of H.W. and grandfather of W., who had extensive financial holdings in Germany used to assist the Nazi cause and benefitted personally from Holocaust labor, earlier highlighted his spiritual resume with “grave-robbing.”

Grave, bones of an Israelite prophet desecrated

 Geronimo’s skull was taken to Yale University to become part of the divinations, Satanic vows, unclean rituals and “death cult” of the secretive and Satanic Skull and Bones Society.    However, when Geronimo’s skull was chosen for these dark and foolish flirtations with an Evil that eventually demands repayment, no one knew he was a still-covenanted Israelite prophet.

 Tampering with the grave or bones of an Israelite prophet is a curse in itself.

 Maggid ben Yoseif

Postscript from MbY:  I am convinced that the spiritual root of the economic  curse under which the world labors is as written above. To prevent this curse from spreading further, the U.S. State Department should immediately take its hands off of Israel and allow Israelis and Palestinians to negotiate a unilateral settlement taking the pre-1967 lines off of the table permanently.

The GOP should adopt a plank at its Tampa convention protecting the Birthright by agreeing never again to press Israel to cede this region as part of a Palestinian state.  This is especially necessary because the GOP frontrunner is Mormon.  The theology of Mormons is especially specific as it pertains to the Birthright of Joseph.  Mormons believe Joseph’s inheritance is here in America and believe the New Jerusalem will be in Independence, Mo.   Further, the divination of Joseph (156) Smith (510)  = 666 published in 1830 called, “Book of Mormon,” written using a “seer stone” conjures a migration and history of a family of M’nashe that disagrees with the emerging DNA, historical-cultural, archaeological, linguistic and other evidence tracing Native American origins to Israelite East M’nashe. See www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm.  Further, Smith’s divination of the story of exile of his family of Joseph begins at least 140 years after East M’nashe and the Gershonite priests assigned to Gilead had already been exiled. See the only review of the Book of Mormon and the LDS Doctrine and Covenants commissioned by Native American spiritual elders at  www.torah-voice.org/BoMDCT.htm.

If the GOP frontrunner is elected, for the first time America would have a president “who knows not Joseph, nor Joseph’s Birthright.”  If this is a concern to you, please help me promote this understanding ahead of the Tampa convention.

To uproot the curse at its roots Yale University, its board and trustees must demand that the Skull and Bones cease its divinations and sorcery and Satanic rituals with human remains.  The secret society must return — in a sacred manner — the skulls of Geronimo, Mangus Colorados and the other young Apache dug up at Ft. Sill, OK.  When these have completed their journeys, a purification ritual must be held at the White House and then the curse may be lifted, assuming the Bush Road Map is also torn up.

This society has been allowed to operate at Yale in a culture of Satanic ritual just as perverse — if not more — than the football culture that permeated Penn State so that the university protected a pedophile coach and turned a blind eye to child sex abuse and homosexual rape.  Yale harbors those who yield their wills to “he who plots to destroy the world.”

The GOP and its radical “Religious Right” agenda has been looking for demons everywhere.  If these Christians are sincere and serious about reforming the spiritual blight covering America, let them bring their case to Yale to force the disarmament of the “stronghold of Satan,” the university harbors called Skull and Bones.  This society is more sinister than we have realized and now foments the mindset of “Satanic death cults,” a further evolution since both presidents Bush took their vows to Satan.  And the fruit of those vows:  Two unnecessary wars that have robbed the worlds’ economic capacity, killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, Americans and allies and maimed hundreds of thousands more and destroyed confidence in the American government.  The latter when Americans realized that just as in Vietnam, Iraq was a war fought for ulterior motives.

In fact, if an American could take off his American hat and lay down his American bravado long enough to view this war from the perspective of nations in the Middle East, it could be seen for what it was:  A provocation.  American oil companies in Kuwait were drilling directional wells into Iraqi mineral rights knowing that the administration of President George H. W. Bush would “have their back.” 

Satan cometh not but to steal, kill and destroy.

Is Romney really ready to play the Israeli card?

The Israeli card which presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is about to play will not go unchallenged by the religious and secular Israeli news media.  Unlike the mamby-pamby coverage of the American media, seeking to keep even religious differences that would affect foreign policy out of the election coverage, Romney will be barraged with questions about areas where his Mormon faith conflicts with humanitarian precepts within Orthodox Judaism, about Christian Religious Right prophetic trends he has embraced pertaining to Israel and his view of a Palestinian state.

A primer on spiritual issues for Israeli news media

As a primer for my former colleagues in the secular Israeli news media, I wish to make available the only review of the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants of the LDS Church commissioned by Native American spiritual elders.

  • A series of five articles reviewing the 1830 Book of Mormon divined by Joseph (156) Smith (510) = 666 using a “seer stone” he earlier used in 1826 to “divine” buried treasure, for which he was convicted of “glasslooking fraud” in Bainbridge County, NY.,  www.torah-voice.org/BoMDCT.htm  The review is done by the standard of a Torah that would be expected from an assimilated family of M’nashe — an exiled tribe of the House of Joseph — never removed from its covenant, as the history of biblical Israel evidences.  However see reprint of March 2011 Ancient American magazine,  “Israelite East M’nashe traced to (Apache, Navajo) at Four Corners,” at www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm. This article concludes that the migration route of Israelite East M’nashe in no way resembles Smith’s “divination.”  It is currently being circulated among Native elders who are considering whether to demand that the LDS Church cease publication of what is now proven to be a “divined fiction with clear Satanic motives to usurp the priesthood of Aaron, the Birthright of Joseph and the land of Promise for all of Israel.” – MbY.
  • Two subsequent blogs, “Which 666?  How Obama hatred hands the oval office to Satan,” http://wp.me/p2pR8x-15 and “The 666 Connection to Mitt Romney:  The Satanic origin and purpose of the Book of Mormon and LDS Doctrine and Covenants,” http://wp.me/p2pR8x-17  detail the spiritual issues that conflict between Mormon philosophy and the biblical prophesies pertaining to Israel.  Romney’s throwback foreign policy with Russia is explained in its Mormon apocalyptic context at http://wp.me/p2pR8x-1 “Back in the USSR: The Heresy of Triple A’s Foreign Policy You Won’t See on Fox.”

All of this material has been circulated to leadership in Salt Lake City, other Mormon leaders and two private mentors with whom I studied the Book of Mormon for five years during the research for my reviews.  Their experience in the Book of Mormon totaled more than 100 years.  NO REBUTTAL, DISPUTATION OR RESPONSE HAS BEEN FORTHCOMING, SO I CAN ASSUME ALL FACTS ARE CORRECT.

Mormon doctrine serves agenda of Satan

But to sum it up, Mormon doctrine usurps the priesthood of the Koheinim, the blood descendants of Aaron, brother of Moses; usurps the Birthright of Joseph in the Shomron or northern two-thirds of the former West Bank of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and proposes that Eretz Yisrael (the land of Israel) is the land of Promise for “only the Jewish people.” The non-Jewish or “Joeish” House of Israel still in exile, according to the Book of Mormon is here in America, where Mormons believe the other tribes of Israel will join them. There is no “Christian” faith with doctrine better aligned to serve the agenda of Satan in the last days to steal (the Birthright) kill (Israelis and Palestinians) and destroy chances at peace.

I have yet to hear Romney address a Palestinian state or even be asked about it by the mamby-pamby media in the States.   This is an issue that a sizeable percentage of independents with spiritual leanings are waiting to hear addressed.  It was never addressed at all in the 2008 election.  Much of the Religious Right jumped into bed with Romney without ever questioning these vital spiritual concerns … as well as his tax returns.

Rick and Bubba almost asked the right question

As recorded on the “Rick and Bubba” show in Birmingham, just before the Alabama primary when asked if he believed Israel was the Promised Land – Romney replied, “Israel was promised to the Jewish people but you will have to ask the (Mormon) church, but I understand there are other lands promised to other people.”  But this show’s hosts had no understanding of the Birthright issue and how usurping the Birthright has cursed America and all the nations that have embraced that Palestinian state.  The Birthright is the region to which the House of Joseph is promised its return (Jeremiah 31:15-18) to reconcile and reunite with the House of Judah “on the mountains of Israel” (Ezekiel 37). All of the mountains of Israel are in Judea-Samaria with the exception of the small Mt. Carmel range near Haifa. This region cannot be a Palestinian state.  It is reserved for the Return of the House of Joseph.  See blog http://wp.me/p2pR8x-5G “Israelis, Palestinians and Apache, O My!” an out of the box peace inititiative in which the House of Joseph finally gets a chance to present its case.

A ruler who ‘knows not Joseph’

A Mormon president would bring to power a “ruler who knows not Joseph nor Joseph’s Birthright,” in dealing with Israel and a Palestinian state.  At the same time, it is noted that President Obama favors a Palestinian state according to the pre-1967 armistice lines, which also usurp the Birthright of Joseph.  However, White House insiders indicate that Obama is practicing “the silent diplomacy of the late King Hussein of Jordan.”  The king was a close ally to Israel, but could not be so publicly.  To head off more 9-11 style attacks, it was necessary that at least a pretense of distance exist between the Obama Administration and Israel.

Since tampering with a Birthright is considered to be the blackest of black roads, Native spiritual elders feel that many of the nation’s economic problems stem from a curse America has brought on itself for “cursing Israel.”  As Ada Fasthorse, greatest granddaughter of the Israelite-Apache prophet known as “Geronimo,” tried to warn President George W. Bush in July 2007, his ill-fated Road Map to Peace in the Middle East (according to the pre-1967 lines) was responsible for the curse about to descend on America because the Road Map usurped the Birthright of Joseph.

That curse continues until U.S. Foreign policy comes into line with the biblical expectations. www.torah-voice.org/Biblical_road_map.htm  and certain other steps are taken by the American leadership to correct spiritual wrongs.

Israelis, Palestinians and Apache, Oh My!

‘Horns of Re’eim’ (Deut 33:17)             revealed as shells of buffalo horns    used in Native purification lodges                                                                      As the World awaits the ‘mother of all letters,’ Maggid ben Yoseif offers a special ‘peace pipe’ and the ‘Mother of all Inipis’

WRITER/EDITOR’S NOTE:  I apologize that my reputation as a credible journalist is again on the line, as again, I must be “part of the story,” in reporting it.   The “Zechariah Plan,” a two-state solution alluded to in Zechariah 9, which I  researched from 1996-99 was presented according to protocol, first to Jerusalem’s spiritual leaders and then — through a series of arrests and illegal imprisonments that resulted, it came to the attention of Prime Minister Ariel Sharon during the 2000-01 Al Asqua intifada.   The plan based on Last Day’s geography and a warning by the only biblical prophet descended from Esau is modeled after a more humane and abbreviated version of the Cherokee Removals of the 1830s – its international precedent.  It urged mutual disengagements over a few weekends of Israelis from the Gaza and regions contiguous including the cities of Ashdod and Ashquelon – the so-called “Plain of the Philistines” and all Palestinians from Judea-Samaria.  This was before Israel acted unilaterally to disengage Jews only from the Gaza region with no reciprocal disengagement of Palestinians from Judea-Samaria.  The plan was disseminated to Native American spiritual leaders first among the Twin Fires of Hopi and Cherokee Kituwah and then to a wider audience of the 500 Nations.  While the actual return is decreed by one of the Twin Fires for a “next generation,”  the “Mother of all Letters,” alluding to a declaration of a Palestinian state according to the pre-1967 lines, mandates a warning in the strongest terms possible NOW that this action usurps the Birthright of its true heirs who are neither Jewish nor Palestinian.  They are the House of Joseph still in exile but decreed their return to the “fields of Ephraim” and the “fields of Samaria,” the head and crown region in the outline above.  And the only family of Joseph never removed from its covenant exists today most remotely among the five remnant Nations of the Apache and the Navajo.  See www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm reprint of March 2011 Ancient American magazine article.  This article alleging a covenant that remains intact between — minimally — the 38 Athap(b)ascan Langauge Group Nations and the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and is yearly renewed, has gone unchallenged since its publication.  Based on the presumed truths of the Zechariah Plan and the migrations of Israelite East M’nashe,  we offer this scenario to bring Israel and the Palestinians to the place of trust and peace. It interjects a third unilateral position regarding the Birthright of Joseph for the consideration of all who are Hebrews, whether they call themselves this or not.  The parties named are actual parties and these are their real Native names.  Seven Apache, led by direct descendants of the Israelite-Apache descendants of Geronimo are willing and waiting to carry out the role specified, since learning their origins among the priestly descendants of Israelite East M’nashe.

3-D map of Judea-Samaria reveals it to be the mountains of Israel on which the Houses of Joseph and Judah will reconcile and therefore not suitable for a Palestinian state

BEAR VALLEY, COLORADO — It looks and suffers like any other Lakota, Navajo or Apache inipi.  Sheets, blankets and tarps are draped and tied over a 16-pole womb that receives the seed of prayer in the steamy darkness rising from a pit of glowing hot “grandfathers” (stones) onto which water was thrown in the six directions.  As in every other inipi, the seeds herein are planted in humility with hearts crying for mercy and diligently seeking Grandfather (Creator) in every direction He may be found.

 Buffalo skulls lock horns but prop special chanuppah

 But this purification lodge lies in the heart of the old pre-settler Five Nation Apache confederacy.    The location just within the eastern precincts of the Sacred Four Corners is guarded by a very old chieftain spirit who a few with pure hearts, claim to have seen.   And perhaps prophetically, where there is usually only one, two buffalo skulls on the dirt mound altar are facing opposite with their horns seeming, again prophetically, to interlock.

Propped between the interlocking horns is a channupah (sacred pipe used anciently to seal peace treaties between Native tribes and the American government, more than 500 broken by the American government).  This is a very special channupah contributed for this occasion by “C(h)antewas(h)tewi’in” (Good heart woman), as told in her visions, “to seal the reunion of the houses of Joseph and Judah in Jerusalem.”   Although previously stewarded by two others, smoke had never been drawn from the simple carved Lakota stem and red pipestone bowl by the previous steward.   It had never been “activated” with a flesh offering until just before this inipi began, when Cantewastewi’in chose me to volunteer a sliver of my flesh and blood from the region where Orthodox Jews lay their “arm” t’fillin.

The Red Bead Family

Now a grandmother in her 70s, Cantewastewi’in, was so named by the late Cherokee-raised-by-Lakota spiritual elder, Dr. James Gillihan when he was the steward of the sacred channupah of Sitting Bull from which she drew smoke herself.

Although never earlier activated, the intentions that came with the pipe at its prior giftings also are significant to advancing the cause of peace between Israelis and Palestinians.  One of those intentions as expressed by Grandmother Cantewastewi’in is expressed by a simple red bead.  Dr. Gillihan distributed these beads to more than 600 “willing” Native elders, grandmothers and peace sympathizers around the world before his death, including the Dalai Lama, who is a member of the “Red Bead Family.”  The red bead promotes the simple but vital awareness that “we are all relatives, part of the same family.”  This chanuppah has Dr. Gillihan’s signature bead and motto, which carries the message of the inipi – and the COVENANT it establishes.

Smoke reserved for Jerusalem peace treaty

The chanuppah is loaded in the traditional way with the traditional pipe-loading songs, but sundancers descended from Israelite East M’nashe offer their prayers with the sacred tobacco stuffed into the bowl with the point of a deer horn.  Smoke will not be drawn from this chanuppah until the final peace is signed in Jerusalem which also allows the Return of the House of Joseph to their ancestral inheritances.

The fire was made with an offering of sacred tobacco from only cedars and pinion chosen (made sacred) by lightning strikes.  It is carefully and prayerfully built into a cradle to support the “grandfathers” (stones), also specially chosen with the offering of sacred tobacco from a nearby volcanic mountain pass.  The firekeeper, who guards its holiness and is certain about washing down all who approach with the smoke of sage and cedar,  is Running Buffalo, visited by Great Spirit in his very first inipi when younger but today a leader among the mixed, full-blood and untribed Apache remnant who comprise the descendants of Israelite East M’nashe at the eastern precincts of the Sacred Four Corners.  By the end of the lodge, Running Buffalo will have escorted and gingerly laid to the mouth of the pit in the inipi, more than 100 “grandfathers,” glowing, smiling and full of wisdom imparted with humility and suffering.

Lodge poured by Apache-Palestinian sundancer

Pouring the lodge is “Smiles,” a mixed Apache sundancer (according to the Lakota dance tradition) in his mid 20s, who also happens to be half Palestinian and – rare for a Native American — a student of political science.

Smiles pours water on the glowing ‘Grandfathers’ with the customary shell of a buffalo horn dipped in a bucket of water.  In this traditional manner, Moses foresaw an End-Tmes spiritual reunion of the “goring together of the thousands of M’nashe and the myriads of Ephraim” or the reconciliation of the House of Joseph. (Deut 33:17)

Little out of the ordinary has taken place until now the third of the four rounds of the inipi, sometimes irreverently called a “sweat” or “sweat lodge.” The customary Lakota songs were drummed and sung honoring the directions in which we seek Grandfather and honoring our living Earth Mother and honoring all of our relatives, especially the beasts of the field, the winged and the creeping things on Earth. Starman Joe, who also leads the singing of the permutations of the Divine Name, also honors the ‘wambli gleshka’ (spotted Eagle).   The one significant difference occurred when the channupah gifted by Cantewastewi’in was brought in so that I could touch it against the first six rocks, signifying the six directions from which we seek the Great Spirit.  Then the pipe was removed and replaced between the two buffalo skulls.

Divine Name unites ‘Hebrews’

I broke with protocol after the seventh grandfather arrived.  After first asking for permission from all my relatives,  “Hoa mitakuyasi,” (AH-HO M’TAK-OO-YAH-SEE) I sang and drummed the fourth pipe loading song, which is often not sung.

It was only two words, “Yah” and “Heh,” meant to invoke the “Wah” or “Holy Spirit” within the Divine Hebrew Name.  “Because,” the Great Spirit had earlier decreed, “all in this lodge, be they Israelis or Palestinians were Hebrews when their father Abraham crossed the Euphrates.”  See “Time of the We” at www.torah-voice.org.

Other than a few Apache songs kicked out by Bandido Don and Joe, the first two rounds were Lakota according to Hoyle, with all light and fresh air blocked out, songs sung in four stanzas include the singing and chanting in the steamy darkness of the permutations of the Divine Name, which identify these Apache as descendants of the assimilation of the Gershonite priests of Gilead East M’nashe and the family of Joseph set apart from his brothers.  Told by Geronimo and his chief warrior Victorio not to surrender but to mix with the “mountain people” until Geronimo said “we become a people again,” the Sundance brought to Colorado by Tomas Eaglebear about 10 years ago, has been the banner under which these untribed and mixed but fiercely independent Apache have reunited.

In this inipi, Smiles, a son of a Palestinian mother and Eaglebear, leads an awesome, amazing suffering as an Apache-Palestinian without prejudice, especially when it comes to flinging water on grandfathers and testing the limits of one’s spiritual endurance … and arrogance.

Biblical peace recognizes House of Joseph

Between rounds those in the lodge were offered a chance for fresh air and water outside, but inside, it was all about reaching that place of Brotherhood and mutual respect exemplified by the Red Bead Family and that would come only with shared suffering.

When negotiations stalled around the traditional sticking points — removal of settlements and return of refugees and status of Jerusalem — at Camp David, both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Prime Minister Machmoud Abbas were contacted about considering the biblical alternative Zechariah Plan.  (See WRITER/EDITOR’S NOTE above).

As an effort to avoid a war that could destroy Israeli cities in the south and annihilate the Palestinians and returning Palestinian refugees to Judea-Samaria,   I suggested this inipi to make the Joes and their position known.  The northern two-thirds of the so-called former West Bank of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is the ancestral inheritance of neither Jews nor Palestinians.  It is the eternal inheritance and Birthright of the House of Joseph.  And inipi itself is a means of changing one’s attitude toward violence.

‘Sarah Palin would put down her shotgun’

Anyone who continues in the inipi lifestyle, which involves bowing low to the ground and declaring yourself related to the rest of Creation, and then receiving suffering from the natural combination of wind, wood, fire, rocks, water and steam, cannot remain the same person.  It is natural and spiritual to look “within,” which is what the word “inipi” entails.  And anytime you have the courage to do that, things can, and with the help of Creator, will change!

Even Sarah Palin would put down her shotgun.  In 2008, I and my mailing list of about 800 Joes were puzzled about for whom we would vote.  The major election time task of “spiritual” Native Americans, who usually do not vote themselves was to discern which candidate’s platform might bring the fewest curses on Turtle Island!  Uncertain about then Senator Obama’s position on whether to press Israel for a Palestinian state that would usurp our Birthright, we were seeking Spirit’s direction.  Finally, in inipi, the answer came, “Why don’t you vote for the choice of the four-leggeds?”  The next day, Governor Palin was observed on CNN shooting wolves – my totem – for sport.

When one makes a habit of bowing low toward all four leggeds and wingeds and receives the suffering dealt out as something personal shared with all Creation, the compound bows, shotguns, and rifles might begin to collect dust.

Spiritual priority to avoid curses, bless family of Abraham

We are all thinking this election will be about jobs, when it should be about the overriding biblical factor that determines a nation’s prosperity to offer jobs; whether or not that nation’s policies bless or curse the family of Abraham.  Especially tampering with a Birthright is a very black road, as all Native elders, grandmothers and medicine people know.

Ada Fasthorse, the eldest granddaughter of the Israelite-Apache prophet known as “Geronimo,” tried in July 2007 to warn President George W. Bush that an economic curse was coming for his tampering with the Birthright in promoting the ill-fated “Road Map to Peace in the Middle East.”  There are means to remedy this curse at the roots if the American leadership is ever interested in doing so.

Presidential candidates not invited due to spiritual concerns

So, noticeably absent from this “Hebrew” lodge are the American presidential candidates.  It was decided unilaterally that the U.S. Government had no legitimate unilateral interest in this spiritual matter and past political tampering has only worsened it.

The GOP candidate, as a Mormon embraces a faith that usurps the Aaronic priesthood, usurps the Birthright of Joseph in the land of Israel and even usurps the land of Promise as a homeland for all of Israel.   As a disciple of Joseph (156) Smith (510) = 666 who divined his Book of Mormon using a “seer stone” after contact with an angel of light during the same time period he was convicted of “glasslooking fraud,” credibility issues as well as Satanic concerns arise with a Mormon president.   A spirit with a clear Satanic agenda that would not honor the Birthright of Joseph would not be comfortable – and might not survive — a pure and sacred Native American inipi.  Remember that the covenant with the God of Israel, unlike the remainder of the Northern tribes, remains intact with Native Americans who comprise Israelite East M’nashe.  East M’nashe was exiled 17-23 years before his brothers across the Jordan and exempt from the terms severing West M’nashe and the other tribes from covenant..

The incumbent in support of pre-1967 lines for a Palestinian state, which also usurps the biblical Birthright, has reportedly been rethinking this position. But no official change in the Obama Administration’s foreign policy with Israel pressing for a state according to the pre-1967 lines has yet to surface, so to keep American politics out of the suffering between Israelis and Palestinians and Joes, President Obama also was not invited to this inipi.

Respect for ‘Mama’ needed before one can respect the life that comes from her

A word came forth in an earlier inipi, “Until one respects your Mother, that one cannot respect any life that comes from her.”  So Smiles knew when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Prime Minister Machmoud Abbas, stripped, covered with towels and bowed low to the ground and declared, “All my relations,” as they entered the inipi, that the two world leaders were within Creator’s design.

Finally, they had signaled their respect for “the beasts of the field, the birds of Heaven and the creeping things on the Earth, both the four-legged, two-legged and winged and all of Creation.”  Now and only now, could they adapt to the peace Creation is decreed by Creator and a peace Creation and Creator would oversee.   The Hosea 2:20 covenant necessary to reunite the land of Israel with its children, including Palestinian “daughters of Jerusalem” was at hand.  But that covenant also decrees the end of the sword and the bow and “violence in the Earth.”  For that to happen, these two would have to suffer still more.

World leaders silenced to hear decree of Joseph’s return

And so began the third round with the rock count at about 75.  Neither world leader was able to sit upright in the 140 degree steam and hardly able to speak, much less to pray when it was their turn.  And so for the first time, both could only listen as I offered this prayer on behalf of a third unilateral interest:  The House of Joseph still in exile.

Hoa Mitakuyasi,

Great Mystery, may You be applauded for your Wisdom in concealing the family of Joseph most separated from his brothers and for Your timing for him to be found.

Turn the hearts of the sons of the European settlers, sprinkled with Ephraim, to their father, Joseph; Turn the hearts of the Native sons of M’nashe to their father, Joseph. Turn the hearts of these and all of Ephraim assimilated at coastal regions about to be inundated, back to Joseph.  Turn the hearts of the Thai, Burmese, Cambodians and Vietnamese and Japanese from the seed of the sons of M’nashe who went East, back to their father, Joseph.

Merciful One, as calamities are poised to strike, turn the hearts of the sons of Judah to their father, Judah. Let Joseph and Judah reconcile in the Place You have set aside and according to the Truth of their father, Jacob, on the mountains of Israel in Judea-Samaria.

Turn the hearts of the House of Esau, sons of Isaac to their, father, Isaac. Let he who never left the Land promised to Jacob, show the House of Esau the wells he dug in the Plains of the Philistines.  And let Esau heed the words of their prophet, Obadiah and find refuge in a contiguous Palestinian state that honors the Birthright and Return of the House of Joseph to avoid a bloodbath.

Turn the hearts of all mankind to our father, Abraham and to his ever-patient, all-enduring hesed (everlasting kindness). Show the world the many myriads of nations his seed has become.  With the simple truth that all of our wars have spilled the blood of brothers, prick the hearts of the House of Joseph and all mankind to never learn the ways of war again and lay down the sword, bow and end violence in the Earth.

And turn the hearts of the fathers — the heart of Abraham to all of his children — the heart of Isaac towards the wall You placed between Jacob and Esau; the heart of Jacob toward all of his sons and the hearts of Joseph and Judah toward their sons and each other’s sons.

1.  The map at left compared with the outline at above right, (oriented by the Dead Sea), shows the head and crown region at top right as the ancient biblical inheritance of the non-Jewish House of Joseph, the tribes of Ephraim and M’nashe and part of Benjamin. These were the two sons of Joseph, who was the eldest of Rachel and Joseph’s younger brother, whose birth resulted in his mother, Rachel’s death.

2.  The prophet Jeremiah wrote more than 2,700 years ago in response to Rachel’s weeping for her children, long after her death that her children (the House of Joseph) would return to their biblical borders in the last days.  (Jeremiah 31:15-18).  These territories of Joseph also comprise the Birthright of Jacob.

3.  The head region (Shomron) is set apart by the God of Israel for a holy purpose; to return the non-Jewish House of Joseph to reconcile and reunite with the Jewish House of Judah, who has largely already returned.  These two houses of Israel hailed from two brothers, one jealous of the other, but who were reconciled before their deaths. However, their sons’ enmities and vexations have left the scars of a split kingdom, civil war and separate exiles.  This represents “unfinished business” in the family of Jacob for the God of Israel. Else, the light “Israel” is charged with becoming to the nations and the Word guaranteeing its bright shining expose God as a hypocrite.

In the same place where it was said of you, Lo-ami, (Not My People), you shall be called the sons of the living God.” (Hosea 2:1)

That place demands a return of Joes and the non-Jewish “House of Israel.”

4.  The prophet Obadiah’s vision of the House of Esau in the Last Days, at the time when Jacob would be returned to his possessions, indicates those possessions — including the Birthright of Jacob would be occupied by the “House of Esau.” Obadiah, himself a descendant of Esau, has tried to connect prophetically with the Palestinians living today in Judea-Samaria, formerly known as the “West Bank” of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.  Biblically and historically, these Palestinians today because of where they live — in the Birthright land — and their hatred of “Jacob” are “the House of Esau.”  Obadiah’s is a disinterested voice in whom the Palestinians must listen. Their lives depend on it. And any nation’s foreign policy that supports a state for Esau in this Birthright region, merits the most serious of all biblically ordained curses:

God of Israel to Abraham: “I will bless those who bless you, but those who curse you I will cause to be cursed and in your seed all families of the earth shall be nivrecu (grafted or intermingled according Chizkuni, Daas Zekeinim, Rashbam and Tur).”

NOTE:  Esau’s historic hatred of Jacob is explained by the concept of incompatible “leumim” discussed below. Esau is a different “leum” (a people with the same or a compatible interest and mindset) than his brother, Jacob to whom this promise of blessing by God applies.

5.  Obadiah‘s vision urges the disengagement of the entire House of Esau from these territories of Joseph and concludes that those who remained would be annihilated.

“The House of Jacob shall be a fire, and the House of Joseph the flame and the House of Esau for stubble and I will kindle in them and devour them and not one shall remain from the House of Esau.” (Obadiah 17ff)

THE STATUS QUO:

 6.  A two-state solution was alluded to by the biblical prophet, Zechariah, some 2,600 years ago, according to our EXEGESIS, which examines the content of the prophecy in its context. The context includes both the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the worldwide spiritual move to unite and reconcile the House of Joseph with the House of Judah and return at least a remnant of the House of Joseph to its territories.

This contiguous Palestinian state (outlined in red in the maps above and below) is the domain of a fearful and sorrowful people whose “expectation” (connected to Lebanon and Syria) was ashamed. Zechariah referred to this people as P’lishtim, as the Palestinians also were called in the Arabic used by Yasser Arafat.  Zechariah observed their dwellings in the contiguous region of the Gaza, Ashdod, Ashqelon and Ekron. He also called their leader an “aluf” (chief or master) in Judah. But the state Zechariah described was “conditional.” Further, it would be orchestrated solely by the God of Israel.

God would first cause the “cutting off” of the “pride of the P’lishtim.” Cutting off the “pride” of an entire people, would to our thinking minds, suggest a mother of a war or a depression or some calamitous event. In the individual, the defense of ego is central and basic, even primal.  Nationalism has bred the same defense shrouded in such things as patriotism. But the national ego can also get out of control. Let’s call this “ultra-Nationalism” that defines the passionate “free will” of the people. But when the free national will contradicts THE Will, regarding Judea-Samaria and the reconciliation of Joes and Jews, for instance, the passion in that opposing will must be quelled.

A 3-D topographical map of Israel shows first that the “mountains of Israel” on which the House of Israel will reunite with the House of Judah (a biblical name for the modern Jewish state) lie almost entirely in Judea-Samaria.  This same region as a Palestinian state would make Israel virtually undefendable from a high-ground attack in Judea-Samaria. Denied their ultra-Nationalistic aim, it becomes necessary as Zechariah states to:

1) Take away the blood out of his mouth.

2) Take away the abominations from between his teeth.

In the context of current events and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the blood removed could figuratively relate to the ongoing terrorist attacks accompanied by shouts of “Allah Akhbar,” which would cease.  This could occur with the simple realization by both sides that Israel swore an oath to the God of Israel and to His (the God of Israel’s) Allah long before the time of Muhammad.   (The job of this Allah as described in Deuteronomy 29 is to “enforce” the imprecation or curses outlined in Deuteronomy 28).  Israel’s freedom from any of its enemies has always relied on its observance of Torah and Torah-based revivals.  When Israeli religious leaders reflect on the Torah not being considered in connection with this problem, they will come to the realization that it relates to the exclusion of the House of Joseph.

The abominations coming from between his teeth could be interpreted as the Palestine National Charter calling for the removal of the Zionist state and the death of all Israelis.  Despite much political rhetoric and maneuvering and promises to amend the charter, those terms remain.

As an aluf in Judah, the Palestinian state envisioned by Zechariah, may not be totally autonomous and would remain part of Israel, just as all states of the United States remain part of the U.S. 

8.  The “Zechariah Plan,” would involve the transfer or “disengagement” of Palestinians from Judea-Samaria to new homes, pastures and orchard lands in a contiguous region generally known in the Bible as “the plain of the Philistines.”  The Israelite tribe of Dan, which was given this region as its inheritance, failed to conquer its enemies and was eventually relocated to the North in the region of the Golan Heights. Victory in those early battles was tied to Walking the Walk. Obviously the tribe of Dan didn’t.  The Philistines, progenitor of the Palestinians in etymology and geography, but not necessarily geneaology, thrived.  At least until Israel Walks its Walk, the Palestinians have biblical precedent to the plain of the Philistines AND to be as thorns and bees as servants of “Allah.”

Thanks to State Department intervention in the Heavenly system of justice,  the thorns today are deadly roadside bombs and bees sting like terrorists.   Until the U.S. State Department began forcing Israel to succumb to the PLO’s demands for a Palestinian state in Judea-Samaria, Creator’s system of justice was in place.  The superior school systems, public transportation systems and services being provided in Jewish communities as opposed to Palestinian communities was pointed out in the Israeli media and was being addressed.

But when the State Department began insisting on a halt to infrastructure development and housing in Judea-Samaria, the State Department became at odds with the Zechariah Plan.  The Bush Road Map to Peace in the Middle East, as it was styled, blatantly stole the Birthright of Jacob given to Joseph in allocating it as part of this proposed unbiblical, non-contiguous and suicidal Palestinian State.

So if there ever was a nation for which a hands-off policy might be the best policy, it should be Israel, who will be judged by Creator directly and it is safe to say guided by Creator and who has been admonished to dwell “apart from the nations.”

8.  The Plain of the P’lishtim is loosely defined by the  fertile Sh’felah region contiguous with the Gaza and coastal cities to the north including Ashqelon and Ashdod.  The plan also involves further “disengagements” of the Jewish populations in the contiguous area comprising Ashdod, Ashqelon and Ekron.  This follows already heart-wrenching disengagements from Jewish populations in the Gaza area.

Considering that the Palestinians would get much more fertile land and favorable environs, the disengagement would be warranted.  Palestinians and Israelis required to disengage in this region would receive better houses, orchards, gardens and facilities than they had before disengagement.  The plan, modeled after a more humane and abbreviated version of the Cherokee Removals — thus it has international precedent — could be carried out in a few weekends obligating no moves more than 5 hours.

The trade off would be to separate the two different leumim into two contiguous states, permanently, providing security-controlled access highways to link both states and initially a superhighway to Jerusalem to accommodate prayers at the Al Aksa Mosque.

9. The contiguity is necessary as explained above to separate the two nations into two contiguous states and two “leumim.” This was prophesied of the two families, Jacob and Esau, to their mother, Rebecca, when the two unborn boys “agitated” in her womb.  The two would be unable to co-exist and one would be in ascendancy over the other … for life. Thus, each “leum” represents a people whose ideology and mindset differs … and conflicts. This mandates separate and contiguous states for each.

10. The northern two-thirds of Judea-Samaria (the head and crown region in the outline) vacated by the Palestinians would revert to new immigrants who are neither Jewish nor Palestinian.  They are “the House of Joseph.” Biblically and historically, these include Ephraim and M’nashe and part of Benjamin.

According to the Bible, the greatest concentration of Ephraim dwells in the coastal regions of the Earth including the coastal Americas.  The greatest concentration of M’nashe is split into two regions.

I.  The people identified along ancient southern Chinese trade routes in India, Burma, Thailand and other areas of Southeast Asia.  These refugees provide an immediate source of population to inhabit the Shomron as they are homeless and starving.  Rabbi  Eliyahu Avichayil in his book “Ha-Shevitim” (The Tribes) identifies  some 2 million “Shinlung” refugees as part of M’nashe.

II. Native Americans.  Research is ongoing through the Equahiyi-Wasi, a society formed by the Central Band Cherokee under the direction of past principal chief Joe “Sitting Owl” White,  to research archaeological, historical/cultural, linguistic, DNA and spiritual links between all Native American nations and “Abraham” and “Moses.”   The biblical story of a family of M’nashe separated from his brothers could point to Israelite East M’nashe among the 38 Athapascan Language Group nations including the Apache and the Navajo.  Or the set-apart family could be descendants of the Hopi migrating from Mexico and South and Central America and returning to the American Southwest and other parts of the U.S., in accordance with Native American prophesies that predate anything American on this continent.

This means the House of Joseph is shaping up to be a “refugee population” displaced largely by coming Earth changes that will affect coastal regions and “short-sighted” immigration policies in the U.S.

It also means that the Joes worldwide are more than sufficient to dilute the Palestinian majority population in the Shomron so that Israel may proceed with annexation of the region without legitimizing the politics of Palestinian ultra-Nationalism.  And that means many Palestinians may be persuaded to leave the Birthright of Joseph and find their biblical state as described in Zechariah 9.

And for the Israeli political party who solicits and invites the Joes to fulfill the vision of Zion, as a reunion of Joes and Jews, there is a ready-made political constituency of more than 2.5 million, with millions more eventually spilling over into Lebanon and the Gilead  (Zechariah 10:10ff).

Wright is not all wrong… but the Bush-era Road Map to ‘Palestinian liberation’ still leads to destruction

The Liberation Theology advocated by Chicago Pastor the Rev. Jeremiah Wright is nothing new.  It was taught at the graduate theology school I attended for three years back in the early 1980s, as the biblical right to “throw off the yoke of oppression.”

Certainly the European settlers who came to America — mostly convicts, whores and thieves banished from Europe, along with a contingent of religious zealots and others seeking refuge  –  placed a yoke on the Native population.  Now, after 400 years of “Manifest Destiny” followed by 5 years of “Restoration of Native American Spiritual Sovereignty,” to quote the Reverend Wright, those chickens indeed are “coming home to roost.”

A telling documentary narrated by Kevin Costner, “500 Nations,” spells out the sins of these European transplants and their “Manifest Destiny” at the expense of Native Americans, Native spirituality (since proven Israelite) and the Land.  Not one treaty signed between the U.S. Government and 500 Native tribes was honored by the government. Not one. Native peoples have known for centuries that the government cannot be trusted for this reason.  While a particular administration may have Native American concerns in mind, the Corporataucracy of government responds without human feeling or long after the fact and congressional aide’s assistants reply with “form letters.”

Failure to be ‘brother’s keeper’ damns America

We have written earlier that the real sin at Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not the cowardly choice to disregard wholesale humanity and the sacredness of blood with the A-bomb, but that Ephraimite Europeans and Americans decimated their own brothers, clans of M’nashe who migrated East into Burma, Thailand, Korea, Vietnam and Japan.  With the recent positive ID of Native tribes, including the Apache and Navajo, with Israelite East M’nashe, the Indian wars have also proven to be fraticide.

The BIBLICAL context of that oppressive yoke dealt specifically with the everlasting enmity between two other brothers, Jacob and Esau, both grandsons of Abraham and sons of Isaac.  The Esavite descendants were promised — at a future time — that they would throw off the yoke of Jacob.

Why Wright should be answered

The question Wright has put before the American public and the world — which could not be heard by most over the din of racism three years ago — is the plight of the Palestinians and how much of the hatred of America is traced to the perceptions that America is playing favorites in the Middle East?  Since that is the motive traced to both World Trade Center bombings, as a matter of national security, President Obama has had to distance himself from these radical views.

But rather than run from the question or raise up a false banner against an imagined demon of fear, ANSWER THE MAN!

The answer: Palestinian state by pre-1967 lines usurps Birthright

The Reverend Wright has charged that the Palestinian plight is part of his list of victims deserving liberation. Since this is envisioned in the framework of a Palestinian state THAT USURPS THE BIRTHRIGHT OF JOSEPH, the biblical answer may be:

The Bush-era plan which advocates a Palestinian state in the birthright territory of Joseph:

1)  Attaches a curse to America for aiding and abetting the wholesale theft of Jacob’s birthright — the territories of Joseph — to give to the House of Esau.  The prophet Obadiah wrote that when Jacob would return to this region, Jacob would find it occupied by the House of Esau.  So once again the media has been manipulated for more than 30 years to brainwash Americans into believing that this region is “Israeli-occupied Arab or Palestinian territories,” when the reality is the area is “Esau-occupied House of Joseph territories.” To be politically correct, it has been “Israeli-administered territories.”

TAMPERING WITH A BIRTHRIGHT MERITS THE BLACKEST OF BLACK ROADS NOT TO MENTION TAMPERING WITH THE BIRTHRIGHT.  THIS CURSE — FROM PRESSING ISRAEL FOR A PALESTINIAN STATE IN THE BIRTHRIGHT REGION — IS THE SPIRITUAL ROOT OF OUR NATION’S ECONOMIC DEPRESSION.

2) Spells the certain death of every Palestinian who remains in the territories of Joseph (the head and crown region in the outline above explained in detail at www.torah-voice.org) as well as the millions of Palestinian refugees who would return to this region.  This is because the prophet Obadiah, himself an Edomite, also warned his own people that when Jacob would return to his possessions, the House of Esau (about 1.5 million Palestinians living in Joseph’s territories) would perish to the last man, woman and child.

Palestinian, Israeli disengagements mutual

Elsewhere in our website, (see the Zechariah Plan), we have outlined the biblical Palestinian state and the region to which the Palestinian people must be transferred in order to save their lives. The plan modeled after a much more humane and abbreviated version of the Cherokee Removals — its international precedent, would require mutual disengagements of Israelis and Palestinians.

Elsewhere in Scripture the “yoke of oppression” is part of the judgment of Grandfather against His own people, Israel, for not obeying the Torah to which they swore at Mount Sinai. This oppression would occur in every land throughout their years of exile until they repented and returned to Grandfather and His Law, which is today as it always has been “binding on all of your generations.”

Are the people ready for the Land?

So another dimension to the Liberation Theology argument is whether these “oppressed” Palestinian people are entitled to live in the region until the House of Joseph gets it act together, reconciles among itself and prepares itself to return to its possessions.   Ironically, this will require “prideful and arrogant Ephraim” (Hosea’s words), to humble itself by recognizing the very Native American spiritual sovereignty their ancestors attempted to quash and the authority of the Torah it counted as a strange thing, which led to its exile in the first place.

Reverend Wright, the Liberationists have no biblical grounds on which to stand without the Wisdom of the Fear of the Creator and the Understanding that comes from Torah.  That Wisdom and Understanding promises a liberation of the Palestinians to better lands, homes, orchards, farms and businesses (see the Zechariah Plan at www.torah-voice.org), but the possessions of Joseph are not for negotiation and are set-aside for the Return of the House of Joseph to be reunited with the House of Judah on the “mountains of Israel.”

Happy Mother’s Day: Mama calls Ephraim to ‘inipi’ for Covenant, reconciliation with Israelite East M’nashe

Mega-church or Native American inipi (sweat lodge)?  Which would Grandfather use to make a covenant with the life that comes from our Mother Earth?

Hoa mitakuye oyasin (AH-HO M’TOK-OO-YEH OH-YAH-SIN) or as it is sometimes abbreviated “Aho mitakuyasin,” is the Lakota declaration that has united and reconciled Native Americans from coast to coast:  “All my relations.”  Simply re-stated, “We are all related.”

“We” includes all full-bloods and mixed Native Americans.  “We” also includes all other two-leggeds (human beings), together with the four-legged, winged, creeping things, insects, trees, flowers, herbs, all vegetation, rocks and soil, mountains, oceans and streams and all of Creation.  White Buffalo Calf Woman, who brought this ceremony to the Lakota taught that from the youngest child to the eldest grandmother and most wise chieftain or elder, ALL, bow low to the Earth and make this declaration of “Covenant with Creation” before entering sacred inipi.

Diligently seeking Grandfather in Six Directions

Inipi are Native American “prayer tents” but which resemble a “womb” and represent the womb of our Earth Mother, who Natives understand to be just as alive as the humanity and other life she nourishes.   The songs and prayers sang and uttered while suffering “within” or “inside” (the meaning of inipi), also “diligently” seek Grandfather, as represented by prayers in all Six Directions, including Heaven above and Earth below.  The Directions are both a “witness” and a “seal” (represented by the Apache as a 6-pointed star) to these prayers.

That harmony with the Living Earth Mother has the weight of Covenant in Native American inipi ceremonies is reinforced by  Chief Seattle, of blessed memory, of the Suqwamish and Duwamish. “What is man without the beasts?  If all the beasts were gone, men would die from great loneliness of spirit, for whatever happens to the beasts also happens to man. All things are connected.  Whatever befalls the Earth befalls the children of the Earth.”

The Land’s rests

The two short Torah portions usually read the week of or following Mother’s Day (Behar and Bechukosai) are Leviticus 25-27.  These portions, more than any other in the Torah deal with the Covenant relationship between the Children of Israel and the Land of Israel.  Israel would allow the land one year’s rest in each seven, which meant Israel must remain dependent on Grandfather for its food to sustain life for more than two years before the land could again be harvested.  And during the “time off” from sewing and reaping, the entire nation could be devoted to the study of Torah and spiritual pursuits.  The fruitfulness of the Land made this possible.  If Israel pursued Torah diligently (and not casually), the land would shower the people with tzedekah (charity), but if casual and not diligent, the land would bring forth mishpat (judgment).

The Covenant between Israel and its land was so intimate that land in Israel could not be sold in perpetuity (which means forever); that it was the eternal possession of Grandfather and those residing on it were to be both “sojourners” and “residents” WITH Grandfather.

Jubilee returns ancestral inheritances

When all of the tribes of Israel would be in the land, seven such rest periods would culminate with another entire year’s rest for the land called the Yovel or Jubilee on the 50th year.  At this time, the tribes would be called back to their ancestral inheritances, which would dictate property rights exchanges, called “redemption of the land.”   Each part of the land of Israel was designated as the permanent home for the descendants of one of its 13 tribes.

The Covenant with the land is further expounded in the oral traditions of the Torah from which the Halachah was formed.  The portion of Torah beginning at Leviticus 26:3, reads: “Im b’chukotai TALEYCU” literally translated “If you will WALK OUT (follow) My chukot (decrees or ordinances that have no rational explanation but just beg for observance out of love for Grandfather).  “Taleycu” is derived from the Hebrew root “Halach” (in the imperfect or future tense), from which we get the concept of Halachah (how one actually “walks out” the commands of Torah).

Well-being of land, people evidence of ‘diligent’ or ‘casual’ Torah observance

So the promise is made in verse 3 that if the children of Israel will follow Halachah and guard Grandfather’s commandments, rain will come in the right time in the right amount and the land and people will flourish.  Nothing would disturb our Earth Mother from caring for her children.

Hosea 1 records three judgments on the House of Israel (residing north of the House of Judah and west of the Jordan River and Israelite East M’nashe).  These judgments decree exile, removal from Grandfather’s Covenant and even His mercies.  But in Hosea 2, after the prophet finishes pronouncing Grandfather’s judgment, he announces a coming restoration.  Since the terms of the judgment did not apply at all to Judah or Israelite East M’nashe (who both remained in Covenant despite earlier and later exiles) it is reasonable to believe that these still-covenanted families are the natural choice to extend this covenant to those removed from it.

Scriptural basis for Covenant with life sustained by Earth Mother

Integral to that restoration is a restored Covenant specifically with the other life sustained by our Earth Mother.

‘And in that day will I make a Covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things on the ground; and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the Earth and will make them to lie down safely.’  (Hosea 2:20)

Sages of Torah suggest that this covenant is for the Last Days … after the House of Israel (again not to be confused with Judah — the Jewish People — or Israelite East M’nashe — Native Americans) is punished for “treating the commands of Torah and their observance casually.”  Leviticus 26:42 then promises, “I will remember My covenant with Jacob and also My covenant with Isaac, and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember AND I WILL REMEMBER THE LAND.”

Covenant with Creation reinstituted in inipi after 390 ‘sh’mitahs’ appeased

The chapter goes on to explain that the land would be bereft of the House of Israel specifically to appease for the sabbatical rests it was denied during the House of Israel’s residence.  The prophet Ezekiel had given a sign to the Northern Tribes that they would be exiled for 390 years, but for acting casually toward the commands of Torah, a seven-fold multiplication was decreed to 2,730 years so that the 390 years represented appeasements for only the years the land was denied its rest or 390 sh’mitahs.  Calculated from the exile of the Nothern Tribes in 722 BCE, the land completed its last appeasement of judgment in 2008, meaning the Land Covenant prophesied is now on the horizon perhaps before the next sh’mitah year.

I would like to submit that this Covenant is now being instituted in the Native American inipi.  Any from Ephraim who are serious about reconciling with the family of Israelite East M’nashe may do so in inipi.  Grandfather has decreed that a condition of this reconciliation will be a Covenant with our Earth Mother.

Inipi is for spiritual birthing of prayers

The inipi sometimes irreverently called a “sweat lodge,” is constructed like a womb of a pregnant woman.  Prayers and suffering in the inipi are intended, among other things, to bring about spiritual birthings “inside or within” (which is what “inipi” means).   An Apache woman stated in inipi a few days before Mother’s Day, that since she left her “mega church” with its “cushioned seats and air-conditioning and multi-media sermons” and returned to inipi, “the distance between “the birthpangs” has considerably lessened.  “My prayers are being answered the same day,” she testified.  But we all know that this grandmother today walks in the highest spiritual power of the repentant.

Pipe-carriers function the same as Hebrew ‘tzaddikim’

On those occasions when Heaven appears stubborn as brass, or one FEELS estranged from Grandfather, at our inipi, we call on those who carry sacred channupahs (sometimes irreverently called “peace pipes”).

When the spiritual preparation to be a “carrier of a sacred channupah” is considered along with how the channupah itself is protected from worldly defilements, the picture emerges of the pipe carrier as the equivalent of the Hebrew “tzaddik,” who assists Jews who feel estranged from Covenant.

Sinners are not judged by pipe carriers or tzaddikim

The tzaddik is a link between this world and the World to Come from the time the tzaddik becomes a tzaddik.  From the Hebrew root tzadak, it means one who is “righteous.”  From this the Hebrew sages determined the tzaddik was one who had “overcome his evil inclination” so that he could live to intercede for the less “righteous” while still alive in this world and once they have passed, from the World to Come.  The tzaddik has one foot in this world and one foot in the World to Come.  BUT, and this is an important but in the Native American community, the work of the tzaddik NEVER judges the sinner, only the sin.  Should he judge, he would do more damage than good, preventing the judgment of Grandfather.

Sometimes, Grandfather’s personal judgment is first necessary to change personal habits and cleanse one from the encrustations of sin and defilements.  As the Cherokee specifically understood, “Grandfather is a Just God.” As the Hebrew sages put this, God is a Supreme Tzadik Himself.  Part of His justice we are learning forbids “double jeopardy.”  This is why those who “judge” others merit on their own heads, the very judgment they judge.  Their judgment has circumvented the judgment on the guilty and brought it instead onto themselves.  The way psychology works explains this as one tends to judge the things in others he or she does not like about himself or herself.

Chanuppah made sacred with carrier’s own flesh and blood

In my inipi community, to become a bearer of the Sacred Chanuppah, one first must be gifted of a channupah stem and/or bowl by a Native American spiritual elder – which is considered like an “anointing” or “smichah”  to carry a pipe.   Or as sundancers, they must whittle and shape their own stems and bowls.

Regardless, flesh and blood is taken from the left arm of the channupah carrier (in the region where the arm t’fillin is layed) before the stem and bowl may be joined for prayers.  The bowl is loaded with piki (a mixture of ritual tobacco, sage and other herbs which all have meaning and significance) while singing centuries-old songs telling us always to load this pipe in this same sacred manner.  Finally the songs include singing permutations of the Divine Name.  In fact, the last pipe-loading song is an invocation by the Yah and Hah to welcome the Wah (representing the Holy Spirit).

Inipi:  Means to diligently seek Grandfather

During the inipi ceremony, the Sacred Chanuppah loaded with piki remains on the altar between the fire pit and the inipi but outside of the lodge.  After inipi, with the intent of the prayers of the people still lingering and in mind, the people all bring smoke out of the stem, never inhaling it but blowing it in the six directions.  In this sacred manner we have observed for centuries before Christian missionaries arrived, we seek Grandfather diligently with our prayers in all directions, East, South, West, North, Above and Below (from our Mother).

It is not unusual to have spiritual experiences inside the darkness of inipi.  We sometimes see small blue lights that speak to us (ministering spirits) and sometimes Grandfather will speak directly.  And so, after last Mother’s Day in 2011, I reported on the Word of Grandfather given in inipi a few months earlier:

‘Until Ephraim can respect Your Mother, Ephraim cannot respect the life that comes from Her.’

– The Word of Grandfather

Pipe-carriers are usually sundancers

Usually, those who carry the sacred Chanuppah are also sundancers.  Among some nations, this is required.   Sundancers spend the entire year of the four years most will dance occupied with spiritual preparations also similar to the spiritual preparation demanded of a Hebrew tzaddik.

Sundancers are not allowed alcohol for the duration of their vows, which can be up to 16 years in some nations, but which is usually 4 years.  They are also expected to exemplify model moral behavior, avoid gossiping and excesses in everything.  He is expected to pursue charity and unconditional love and load his channupah every day for prayer.  If someone in the community needs and calls for prayer, the channupah carrier will be quick on the scene.

The manner of carrying Chanuppah

As a peacemaker, the pipe-carrier will also pray for any situations that divide the community. He (or she) will engage in a 4-day vision quest inscribed within a 7-foot diameter circle with no food or water for the duration (or some choose to lay in a hole in the earth for the four days).  On their quests they are allowed only a buffalo hide and their chanuppah, while firekeepers keep a fire going the entirety of their quest which begins and ends with inipi purifications.  They will fast another four days during the dance itself, which is called the sundance because the dance is observed during the hours the sun is out.  (Contrary to myths and false rumors, neither the sun, nor the tree to which the dancers lend their flesh and blood are worshipped.  Only Creator (Grandfather) is worshipped by Native peoples, although his Creation is always respected and honored.

The manner of prayer with the channupah also is most holy.  Except for Heyoka (spiritual clowns who do everything backwards) and the Cherokee Kituwah (who represent the Cherokee priesthood), the Channupah is always turned clockwise and the bowl only held in the left palm.

Tzaddikim empowered to bring Covenant to the people

Pipe-carriers would appear to be the perfect tzaddikim to institute this “Land covenant” between Grandfather and the House of Israel commonly called, “Joseph-Ephraim.”  Tzaddikim were so empowered in ancient times to actually be a covenant for the people, a role exemplified by the sundancers who bleed on behalf of the “Chosen One,” a tree.  No Halachah is violated since no animal was sacrificed in this “shedding of blood” necessary for the annual Covenant renewal.  In fact, the sundance appears orchestrated by an ancient Hebrew priest, who was aware of Grandfather’s disdain for animal sacrifices.  Israelite East M’nashe is known to have assimilated with the ancient Hebrew priests of Gilead, with whom they went into Assyrian exile 17-23 years before the remainder of the Northern Tribes were exiled.

Today a remnant of these M’nashe priests reside in the Four Corners area:  The five nations of the Apache and the Navajo.  Here the extra Y chromosome identifying Hebrew priests occurs from 20 to 24 times more often than anywhere in the world.  Gilead also was the haunt of Elijah the Prophet.

Intimacy with our Earth Mother

It is a “mitzvah” for the skin to touch the Earth from which the Teton Sioux Chief Luther Standing Bear is remembered with blessings for teaching us that in “Her” soil we find “soothing, strengthening, cleansing and healing” beyond the capacity of the love we found in our dear mothers’ wombs.  This is why elders and grandmothers often walk barefoot without moccasins, which allow at least the feel of the contour of the bare ground.  For the same reason, Native altars are only made of earth and tipis are preferred to houses.  So purists sit on the bare ground inside inipi, which can get wet.  The “mud” we bring out of inipi is just our Mama’s love.  “One is able to think more deeply and feel more keenly; he can see more clearly into the mysteries of life and come closer to kinship to other lives about him.” — Chief Standing Bear

Feminine Hebrew noun proves ‘life’ of Mother Earth

In Hebrew, the noun describing the earth (adamah) is feminine.  Anything with the designation of “feminine” in the Torah has the ability to transmit life of its own kind and is dynamic meaning it will grow or shrink, increase or decrease, live … and if we are not careful and mindful of our Covenant, die.  This validates the very first Native teaching, or for that matter, the first teaching by all indigenous people — that the Earth is our Mother who is alive and we should do nothing in our lives to cause her to die and should do what we are able to keep her alive.

The problem has been the immigrants without this natural tie, who do not honor or respect our Mother and who treat her like a disposable napkin or their own private and corporate latrines.  But, even for these, Mama is calling.

“Mother’s Day,” has a special connotation in the inipi.  It is year-round.

The stumbling block between Joes and Jews: The Deity of Jesus (and why it does not have to be)

H’’b

23 Nissan 5772

G’vurah v Hesed

O’siyo to all my relations,

Hopefully, the House of Joseph has emerged from this Passover celebration with a more united understanding of the elements of Covenant in the Seder and their meaning which will bring the Ephraimite and M’nashe Joes closer to the House of Judah.  Also, I pray that we have emerged with “purified tongues.”

I also pray that over the course of this Levitical year, that every Ephraimite will have the courage to re-examine their formerly Christian or messianic beliefs with the eyeglasses of Torah and that eyes will be open to the Truth.

Part of my job as a mokiah is to point out the points of enmity and vexation between Orthodox Judah and Ephraim and between Ephraim and Native M’nashe.  I know you do not want to hear this, but the major obstacle which I call the “michshol” (stumbling block) is the Christian and messianic heresy of the deity of Jesus.  If he were not viewed as deity, he could be accepted by the Orthodox Jewish community as a tzaddik to tikkun for the assimilation of the House of Israel and even the messiah to come once that tikkun has been realized globally.  But the insistence on this warmed over Christian heresy is a point of enmity purposely being fomented by messianics who I have personally told and know the Truth but continue to teach their Christian lies to “not offend” and sell their heretical books.

With the goal of tearing down this unnecessary and divisive wall that has existed since 325 C.E., when Constantine steered Christianity away from the Torah feasts, Shabbat and consequently the understanding of the “tikkun” of a Tzaddik,  I can categorically state that the House of Joseph is dead in the water until it overcomes this indoctrination.

This belief in Jesus as God also separates Ephraim from Native American M’nashe, who find it impossible to think of God in terms of humanity with the understanding of many millennia that God is Spirit, and the image (tzelem) of God in which the race of Adam was created, was the “sh’kinah” or life force of God which he breathed into man and made him shine like an effulgent being …  before sin put out his light.  Tzelem reflects a light image since “tzel” is the modern Hebrew word for a camera which captures a light image.  The Jewish understanding of the final redemption is when we all again, “Rise, Shine, for our Light has come and the Glory (sh’Kinah) of the Lord arises on us”  There is no “physical image” of God.  This is heresy to Native M’nashe and to Orthodox Judah.

What I am saying is that there is a means that Y’shua (Jesus’) renewal of covenant can be understood in the framework of a righteous man (tzadik’s) ability to covenant between Grandfather and an “estranged” people, once he has himself overcome his evil inclination.  This does not deify the tzadik and make him into an idol so that he becomes a stumbling block for the Torah observant. Neither does it diminish the tikkun and the renewal of covenant, although without a Torah understanding of that covenant – which is why I encouraged an Orthodox Haggadah at your seders – many are just playing church or messianic synagogue, cognizant of neither their obligation to do and commitment to obey the commands of Torah “for all of Israel throughout their generations”  and ignorant of the tikkun without the Torah k’Halachah to explain it.

I know right now you’re thinking up a dozen different Scriptures to protest what I’m saying. Let me address the major ones I’ve heard many, many times, so just possibly, you might think this ole Indian has something worthwhile to add to your education and you might hopefully read  “The Disputations.”

  •   The “way truth and life,” are the Derek, Emet and Chai’im mentioned in Psalm 119, which Y’shua quotes as the means to come to the Father.  This pertains to Torah, not to him as “I am” or God made flesh.
  •    Consider that John 1:`1 when translated back to Hebrew from Greek discovers a Hebrew rule of grammar called “the rule of association.”  This means when you associate two nouns, you do not repeat the stative verb.  EXAMPLE:  “Mary was with John and John (was with) Mary .  ”Literally, “In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and God the Word.  The same was together with God in the beginning.”   (This  explains the stilted Greek translation which reverses the word order and errantly states “and the Word was God.”)  Further in the chapter it is this Word, not God who is manifest.  And for all of you who believe Jesus existed in Old Testament times (another heresy), consider that 1 John 1 tells us until he was manifest as the Word made Flesh that he resided in the “bosom of the Father.”
  •    “Before Abraham was, I am,” Since the Torah existed before Abraham, else how could Abraham have observed “all the precepts and commands,” as is recorded of him, not in the oral tradition but in the Torah itself.  Thus before Abraham, as Y’shua worded his riddle, “I am.”  And the answer to the riddle of course is “Torah!”
  •  And why do you suppose that of all the designations Y’shua might take, he would take the one “son of man” that rules him out as being deity in the Torah?  “God is neither a man, that he can lie, nor a son of man…”

I have spent many, many years researching this debate because I know how IMPOSSIBLE it is to be included in the family of Israel  so long as Israel holds on to its “sh’tuf.” (belief in a deity other than the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob).  This is a part of Halachah that was held in common by both the Northern and Southern kingdoms before their separate exiles and therefore seems irreversible and unchangeable, meaning the HOUSE OF JOSEPH MUST ADAPT TO IT.

I have heard much very wild and untamed Sod, (mystical interpretations), but I must remind you that Halachah determined that Drash, Remez and Sod are fine, but in the end of the day,  P’sha, the simple, literal interpretation, is King.

This means unless you want to arouse more enmity and vexation against the House of Judah, P’shat according to Halachah should be taught or at least given equal time.  It is also error to jump from one Strongs number to another without considering the tense, person and number of the verb you are describing.   This is because the different houses of  verbs imply passive, active, intensive and reflexive cases – which pertain to meaning — and to jump from one root to another without clarifying this, leads to false assumptions, conclusions … and doctrine.

Joes, you are just playing church unless you move away from these invented doctrines that continue the enmity with your Jewish brothers and worse, instill hatred of the rabbonim and their Halachah.  If we are about unity, there should be no “us” or “them”, but “we” should recognize that the rabbonim have thousands of more years experience with the Torah and before going off into our own untamed interpretations, give the proper Halachic interpretations … ELSE YOU ADD TO THE ENMITY AND THE DIFFICULTY OF REUNITING.

Accordingly, I offer you my understanding of the origin of the heresy of the deity of Y’shua and the specific passages in Torah and the interpretation according to Halachah, that rule out the possibility of him being deity.

www.torah-voice.org/thedisputations.htm.

 I will be happy to reply to all responses but will not argue any Christian doctrine unless you offer a Torah foundation for it.  Remember that your New Testament is a compilation of 3,600 different Greek manuscripts – the Aramaic traditions were not even considered – canonized by Emperor Constantine and his inner court consisting of his wife, the forger Euseubius, and other conspirators.  If your New Testament insights contradict Torah, they should be thrown out!!

And unless the Aramaic traditions reflect the same truth, I would dismiss the writings of the New Testament altogether

Faith in the God of Israel and his tzadik, our Big Brother Jesus, is another matter, to which Native M’nashe holds firm.

Sun dancers here in Colorado and much of the Native American community are constantly targets of Mormon missionaries.
In 2008, we got fed up.  Jimmy Tenrivers and I organized a delegation to go to Salt Lake City and complain.  We scheduled a meeting with the Council of 12 and then president (the “Prophet”) Gordon Hinckley.  As we were waiting in the lobby of the building with the obscene golden spires to meet with the Council of 12 and the “Prophet,” we later learned that Hinckley had suffered a stroke and died.  Instead we met with LDS historian, Marlin Jensen one of the members of the Council of 50.
I had been challenged some years earlier first by a member of the LDS and later, because of my understanding of Hebrew and the history of ancient Israel and migrations of the exiles, by Cherokee, Apache and Hopi elders to read the Book of Mormon and learn as much as I could about the doctrine and covenants it inspired.  This is because in 2001 I was commissioned by the Rebbe Shani Dor of the Revived Sanhedrin, with the approval of four other Sanhedrin rabbis to leave Jerusalem to “locate the House of Joseph” among my Native American relatives and elsewhere and mobilize a remnant of them to return to their ancestral Birthright as the biblical alternative to a Palestinian state in the Birthright region. 
This occasioned the critical review of the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith (which you can see in five short articles at www.torah-voice.org/BoMDCT.htm).  To these elders’ knowledge, a knowledgeable critique of this book had never been written examining it from a Native American perspective.
One question for the LDS historian
The LDS Church and its spiritual weirdness (I’m sorry I don’t know what else to call some of your beliefs) had deeply taken root in some Native tribes, including the Cherokee band of my gggg and ggg grandfathers before the Removal and for whom I am past ambassador at large.  As a spiritual elder at one of the sun dancers’ inipi (purification lodge), I volunteered to go with Tenrivers and help represent the Apache and Cherokee.  We had one question for the LDS historian:
“If the Lamanites about which the book speaks and who you believe are the ancestors of Native Americans were never removed from Covenant, as evidenced by their progenitor, the alleged prophet Lehi, (LAY-HEE) then is not Jesus irrelevant to us?”
The question was asked to expose the core of Mormon theology as warmed over Christianity, cognizant of neither our obligations to our everlasting covenant in the Torah nor our preserved status as part of Israel.
My personal research, as one of the 13 Native American professionals tapped for the Equahiyi-Wasi society, (the Abraham-Moses project formally researching since 2000, the Native links to ancient Israel, Abraham and Moses) has shown that a family of Joseph never removed from Covenant (Israelite East M’nashe) did pick up its Mongolian DNA during a centuries-long trek.  Once freed from Assyrian conscription they can be traced journeying through Pakistan, the Wakhan Corridor of Afghanistan, Tibet, Mongolia, northern China and Manchuria enroute to the Siberian Straits where the Inuit (Eskimo) assisted their passage into Alaska and Canada.  Depending on when the tribe passed through Mongolia, the Israelite East M’nashe DNA could be much more widespread.

Navajo weave rugs like Hebrew priests

The research through various legends, linguistic clues and unique ceremonies and an emerging obscure Hebrew priesthood traces six nations of these 38 Athap(b)ascan Language Group nations (minimally) further south to the Four Corners:  The five nations of Apachu and the Navajo.  The Navajo today are the only people in the world who employ the unique geometric waft and weft twisted weave of the ancient Hebrew priests.  The weave on the Choshun (Breastplate holding precious stones representing the 12 tribes) described in ancient Hebrew writings is identical to the Navajo weave …  on their rugs, according to Rabbi Chaim Richman of the Revived Sanhedrin.  (See “Israelite East M’nashe Traced To Four Corners” in March 2011 Ancient American magazine, which is now available without cost at www.torah-voice.org/AAcovermarch2011.htm ).

Because there is truth to our Israelite heritage, which the Book of Mormon perverts, and because the Bible makes clear that Israelite East M’nashe was exiled 17-23 years ahead of the exile of the remainder of the Northern Tribes who lived west of the Jordan River, we needed to impress the LDS historian that to this day, we remain covenanted with Grandfather.   We were not asked this at the meeting, but I was prepared to submit and prove that the Native American population comprises the “n’zirei Yisrael” (preserved of Israel) of Isaiah 49. Both Jacob and Moses refer to a family of Joseph “exiled from his brothers,” with the term “n’zir,” usually translated “exiles” or “separated ones.”  Since “M’nashe” resided on the eastern side of the Jordan, opposite the sibboleth-speaking “Mannasah,” on the western side, this verse usually refers to Israelite East M’nashe.
But amid the exile of Israelite East M’nashe, the most separated are the Athap(b)ascan nations residing in the Four Corners:  The Apache and Navajo.
Ceremonies, medicines remain ‘holy’
Our ceremonies, the sundance, which shows evidence of orchestration by a Hebrew priest, the Dance of Welcome (later changed to the Ghost Dance), given to us in 1890 by Big Brother Jesus (similar to a Hebrew hora but we dance it in a spiral), our stomps and other ceremonies are of the Sacred Spirit as are our medicines, sage, sweetgrass, cedar and tobacco.  Since these remain “holy”, they should not be used in common ways In short, we did not require being “missionized.”  The LDS historian made no argument and helped secure $3,000 for the Apache sun dance that year.

The link to Israelite East M’nashe since established beyond doubt, indicates the Native American population may be the ONLY family of Joseph never removed from Covenant.   This means things we understand from Big Brother Jesus who appeared to our elders in 1890, would correct the LDS doctrine — and Christian and other Messianic doctrines — but they are too prideful and arrogant to accept correction from “sons of the forest.”

Joseph Smith was/is a 666

With this preamble, so my motives are clear, I want to take off of my shoulders and place on the shoulders of the spiritual leaders of your nation, tribe, synagogue, church or ministry some very alarming information I discovered during my research and spiritual quest to understand and debunk the Book of Mormon and its doctrine and covenants.

I should need to go no further than to state that the Hebrew gematria of Joseph (156) Smith (510) = 666

Smith said he received his revelation from “an angel of light”, which Smith, then a teenager, called “Moroni.”  I believe the reNewed Testament states that Satan comes in this manner, as an “angel of light.”
The five part series at www.torah-voice.org/BoMDCT.htm  contains other insights that should be alarming.A foreign policy out of Hell

But the most alarming concern to me is the belief by LDS that this land, (the US, which Natives know as “Turtle Island”) is the inheritance of the House of Joseph and a new Jerusalem will be built in Independence, Mo.  This means a Mormon president whose spiritual beliefs have been influenced by a 666 who may have himself been a channel for Satan, may place a lower importance on the Birthright of Joseph in the land of Israel than has already been placed on it by previous administrations, assuming this is possible!!
This should be a very great concern because of the ongoing curses involved with tampering with a Birthright, the curse lingering from the Bush presidencies for the desecration of the grave of Geronimo, (an Israelite prophet), and Grandfather’s purpose for returning the House of Joseph to their ancestral inheritance to reunite with the House of Judah.  And despite contacts from at least two dozen Cherokee and others from other Native American tribes, the former FOX commentator Glenn Beck, who is also LDS, in his several weeks of discussing the pre-1967 lines made no mention that these lines usurp the Birthright of Joseph.  HAD HE DONE SO, I WOULD NOT BE WRITING THIS NOW.
A full explanation of this is available at the website mentioned above.
Satan could be using anti-Obama sentiment

It concerns me that especially the Evangelical Christian Right seems so intent to defeat President Obama in a re-election bid that it might be blinded to “sell its soul” by supporting a Mormon — any Mormon who does not understand, respect and honor the biblical Birthright of Joseph — in the White House.

Anyone who would vote strictly out of a spirit of “beating Obama,” which is the mantra the GOP has adopted — WHO NEGLECTS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO PRAY FOR OUR PRESIDENT AND HIS LEADERSHIP — is guilty of the same spirit of rebellion that motivated young Smith!  Also, the resentment of the GOP against the president really needs to be reflected to the GOP in spiritual terms.  Look in the mirror.  The LORD God chooses a nation’s leaders not based on what the people of the nation “want”  or think they want, but rather, according to the spiritual principle of m’dah k’neged m’dah (what you sow is what you reap).  To correct Mick Jagger, “You can’t always get what you want, but with the LORD, you ALWAYS get what HE THINKS you need.”

A divination rooted in rebellion to oppose Return of Joes

When Smith’s divination was published in 1830, its flowery KJV language and inclusion of prophesies of Isaiah may have seemed innocent enough but deceived many, even the “very elect” of Ephraim, as the reNewed Testament predicted.   But my investigation also found that four years prior he was arrested and convicted for fraud for using the same divining stone by which he later “translated” alleged golden plates, never seen by witnesses except in “visions” … “for fear of death”, to “divine” the location of buried treasure.   Of course the major question today and which I ask in my review is “Where are the plates today?  Show me the plates!” which by all clues if they ever existed may have been writings of the six nations of the Haudenausaunee (Iroquois) customarily written on gold, silver and brass plates and hidden from the Turtle men (Spaniards) who would melt these plates for their precious metals.

Since Smith never made any overture with the plates toward his neighbors, the Haudenausaunee, the initial assumption of Native elders is that a rebellious teenager — rebelling at religion in general — stole the plates and used them for his own purposes and a religion of his own making … out of “the spirit of rebellion,” which the Bible calls “the sin of witchcraft.”   I would add that those purposes are materializing today as the religion for Satan (divination) that in the Last Days would garner opposition to the Return of the House of Joseph as the biblical alternative and solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.  Until now, things have gone according to plan.

Bogus books, fraud destroy credibility ignite false doctrine

Further, within his “Pearl of Great Price” are the Book of Moses, which adds to the words of Moses, a strict prohibition in the Torah; and his Book of Abraham.  Smith claimed to “translate” the latter from an Egyptian papyri that had been part of a traveling mummy show.  It depicted a man with a raised dagger and another man lying on a slab of stone below him.   Smith translated it as the story of Abraham offering up Isaac as told in Egypt with much spiritual weirdness.   But later when the Rosetta stone was discovered and it became possible to decipher Egyptian glyphs, the papyri turned out to be a page from a funerary text in the Egyptian Book of the Dead called, “The Book of Breathings.”  This and Smith’s earlier arrests for fraud destroy any credibility Smith may have purported to have.

Those two books, the Book of Moses and the Book of Abraham, are the source of all manner of strange doctrine, which regrettably has never been re-examined much less withdrawn from LDS beliefs by the LDS leadership.

Question by ‘angel of light’ distracts from Torah answer
Finally, gullible readers (I don’t mean to be demeaning except to emphasize that without a foundation in Torah before reading the Book of Mormon it would be easy to be drawn to this divination) are drawn into and actually mesmerized by the book revealed by the “Angel of Light” (Moroni).  Toward the end, this Moroni challenges the reader to pray about whether the book is true or not and receive a witness to this effect “in their hearts.”  This betrays the logic of the Torah which sets a standard for whether a prophet is true or not by whether his words line up with and do not contradict the Torah. Anyone unfamiliar with this very strict admonition is vulnerable to the heart tingles so easily counterfeited by dark forces.
Silence of LDS leadership allows Esau to usurp Birthright
Smith’s divination of the BoM and his doctrine and covenants fail even the Torah expected of New Testament believers.   His doctrine and covenants further usurp the legitimate Hebrew priesthood of Native Americans (Zadokites) who in the Four Corners region have the extra Y chromosome in their DNA (the Kohein haplotype) from 20 to 24 times more often than any population sample in the world, including totally Jewish population samples.  Most tragically for the LDS, they claim to be Firstborn Ephraim without embracing the Birthright of the Firstborn and instead — through the silence of the LDS leaders about the Birthright — allow it to be usurped by the people Obadiah called “The House of Esau.”

You will want to read the brief reviews.
