Moshiach YESHUATI Ben Yosef, Nazarite BORN 3 BC
Luke 20:27-40 KJV
Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
“Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him. Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife, but died childless. Then the second and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children. And last of all, the woman died. So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
Jesus answered, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God.
Even Moses demonstrates that the dead are raised, in the passage about the burning bush. For he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!” And they did not dare to question Him any further.
WHO WAS JESUS AKA “YESHUA”
John 10 KJV Feast of Dedication - Hanukkah
Location: Mother's lineage - Solomon's Porch
Time: Jesus יהושע Yeshua's Patriarchal lineage at Hanukkah
22 'And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
23 And Jesus, [יהושע], walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the w
orks that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
30 I and my Father are one.'

Maccabeus Josephus, author of War of the Jews w.married a noble Jewish lady from Crete andhad two sons: the elder’s name was Justus: and the next Simonides: who was also named Agrippa. 'The Antiquities contains two famous references to Jesus Christ: the one in Book XX calls him the “so-called Christ.' ~ The implication in the passage in Book XVIII of Christ’s divinity could not have come from Josephus and undoubtedly represents the tampering (if not invention) of a later Christian copyist." ~ Poole, Gary William. "Flavius Josephus". Encyclopedia Britannica, 25 Apr. 2024, https://www.britannica.com/biography/Flavius-Josephus. Accessed 18 May 2024.
Herod, the Pharisee, became obsessed with Jesus when he was born and destroyed his family with his granddaughter, Salome. He killed John, his brother James, Jesus and Mary aka Mariamme and Constantine deviously had Eusebius scramble the text about her marriage to Joseph to depopulate people forcing deviation from the path Apostles John, Yochanan testified to people to straighten up their paths and stand against the immortality.
'This is the record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, [Yehoshua Moshiach] the son of David, the son of Abraham:
Abraham was the father of Isaac,
Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers.
[4]Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, [mother of two (2) sons]
[5] Perez the father of [6] Hezron, and Hezron the father of [7] Ram...and [13]Jesse the father of [14] David the king.
Next: King James Bible Mat 1:6
'And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias... and [13] Josiah the father of [14] Jeconiah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.'
12 'After the exile to Babylon:
Jeconiah was the father of [1] Shealtiel, the father of Zerubbabel, [2] Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, [3] Abiud the father of Eliakim, and [ [4] Eliakim begat Azor; And [5] Azor begat Sadoc; and [6] Sadoc begat Achim; and [7] Achim begat Eliud; And [8] Eliud begat Eleazar; and [9] Eleazar begat Matthan; and [10] Matthan begat Jacob; And [11] Jacob begat [12] Joseph the (father) of [13] Mary of whom was born [14] Jesus, [Yeshua] who is called Christ.' ~ KJV
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them.

Matt 1 Joseph Ben Jacob’s Lineage of FATHER is Mary’s or as some know her by her Hebrew name Mariam.

AKA Luke 3 give’s Mariam’s HUSBAND Joseph’s lineage of his father,

How therefore, Yeshua is the namesake of Joshua from Lk3 of his father’s lineage – not his mother’s.
25 And (Joseph Ben Heli) knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name (Aramaic) Yeshua, JESUS, יהושע

Is Jesus THE Messiah? | The Chronological Gospels
Nehemia tried to clear up some confusion about the cursed woman's sacred marriage bed in traditional Judaism.
Gal 3:28 There is not Yehuḏite nor Greek, there is not slave nor free, there is not male and female, for you are all one in Messiah ישוע
With all due respect for an Aramaic lineage, therefore, let’s consider Yeshua's rebuke for being called a Samaritan Jn 8:48-49 that his father deserved being given more respect than that of an inbred Samaritans, so therefore, in Matt 1 vs 18 both Josephs couldn't be the father of Jesus, it only takes one to be Mariam’s husband, or, respectively the virgins husband could not be accepted from the priestly lineage of Joseph Ben Heli Lk 3 Maccabeus genealogies in the gospels summarizing functions reflecting the Biblical Calendar of Heli.
Luke 3:23 'And Jesus, [Yeshua Moshiach], himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli...30 Which was the son of Simeon, which was the son of Juda, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Jonan, which was the son of Eliakim, Which was the son of 31 Melea, which was the son of Menan, which was the son of Mattatha, which was the son of Nathan, which was the son of David' ~ KJV
I encourage buying the Chronological Gospels, which I haven't, yet; however, reading hebraically rt to lft, therefore to begin with her father in Matt 1:25, replacing names and roles for Joseph Ben Heli for like ‘his 2nd - 3rd wife’ Since the whole, not half, brother of James of Crete aka Jacob Ben Joseph was an older grandson of his Grandfather and "he" Matt 1 for Yosef, reflects discernment btw the father and son in law, Joseph, a husband with the same lineage and same name vs 18 who engaged, pledged to keep wiving Mariam.
Hence, Beginning another chapter In Mat 1:19 perhaps ommiting the confusion with pronouns for "her husband" and considering the role was not a polygamous Samaritan father being 'a husband' then the decision was possibly made not to annul the marriage by 'her father' and her husband, who incidentally has the same name being 'Joseph' who was a righteous man and was unwilling to disgrace her publicly, considering that a paternal choice to [rt 2 lft -her father Yosef would perhaps approve either an engagement or would want an unconsumated marriage annulled to Joseph, or lft 2 rt It’s assumed that Joseph could've divorced his other wives] or divorce Miriam quietly, [or replace divorce with annulled] and hence vs 20 instead of Mariam, 'your wife' edit it to be Mariam 'a wife' or it could be better likewise to be blessed in vs 24 instead of making Mariam out to be a Hellenistic Freudian fruitcake from Matt 1: 11 when Yoshiyahu brought forth Yeḵonyah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Baḇel. from 2 Ki 23:34, Being cursed to be childless .
(Deut 23:2-3, Gal3:13 Curses were not fixed, they were extended a span of ten generations and anymore would be an exaggerated vent Jer 22:30); Josiah was before the carrying away to Babylon and Jokania was afterwards; perhaps there was not a curse on Jacob because of this (1st) marriage to priestly Joseph…
Therefore, with all due consideration for the problem of a miraculous virgin conceived with vs 23, hence, Mariam was a blessed Maccebeus Virgin that "will be with child" being future tense resolves prophetic Isa 7-9 of Immanuel for there is not a letter "J" in Hebrew Aramaic so he really was from the 'Branch' namesake "Yehoshua" or "Yeshua" Aramaic Lk 3 from His paternal lineage of Jacob, rt 2 lft the men were fathers, clearly there were two Josephs, one in Matt one Lk.and, agreed begat not- they did not birth the babies, except through surnames of husbands eg. Ish, iah of YHVH. However, that’s another discussion whether it’s the “IAH” of Ps 68:1 or transliterated IEO “‘YEHO” not to disregarding the scrolls.
Actually, tho, with respect for Miriam who was a female prophetess and the 1st at the tomb of Yeshua aft he and James died because according to Josephus Antiquities of the Jews xx, ix, 1 - James was actually a full Brother to Yeshua and in Antiq xix, vi, 4 Matthias & Mariam had a powerful ministry in Acts 1, 2 also in Magdala, ar Megiddo, where Yeshua visited a ministry (h)ar.Mageddon and there really have been many battles there.
The Timeline to Darius III era ppl give more than one name, or title per event named places for functional achievements eg. ISA 9:6 and an author from 1 Chronicle 7:27, likewise for Hashem of the son of Joshua, the son of Eliezer, the son of Jorim, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi Lk3:29 the same Victor at Zion Joshua of Zephaniah and Hoshea, hence, Neh 8:17 was the true son HASHEM יֵשׁוּעַ of Elohim | Aluiem and the sacred name of Yeshua is from his paternal lineage and because of the Curse of Yokania of Matt 1:11 His name, Hebrew Hashem, was not Josiah from the lineage of Marian’s father. Therefore, in vs 25 or the same thing Jesus aka Yeshua declares in Jn 8:48-49 that he was not an inbred Samaritan fornificator, either.
Two men did not make that baby, the virgin Mariam did not have the help of two men. Isa 7:14, Matthew 1:22-23, Isa 40
Aramaic Bible in Plain English, Peshitta
And he did not know her sexually until she delivered her firstborn SON, and she called his name "the LORD is salvation" יֵשׁוּעַ "Yeshua" יְהוֹשׁוּעַ . (Ibn Yosef Ben Heli Lk3:23-29) there was no curse of Yokanim of the gendered Roman Latin gays (f) "a" or (m) "o" in discerning circumstances between northern a/o dialects for the location of Jacob’s Galilean well is not "ya" of the Sunni Japanese dialects.
Nehemia explained that Joseph did not reside with Mariam during her pregnancy and she probably did resides in at her father’s Galilean home during her pregnancy.
Gal 3:13 Aramaic Bible in Plain English
But The Messiah has redeemed us from the curse of The Written Law, and he became a curse in our place, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree”, (edited) amen No Curses!
Sons of Noah Antiq i, vi, 1 and 2 Actually, tho, to consider John 8 and the adulterous woman – ‘During the Maccabeus War, while leading a brave battle against Antiochus riding inside a high tower on an elephant with military trappings of gold, Eleazar, the brother of Judas the Maccabeus, stabbed the elephant in the side with a Sword to kill the beast to win keeping the virtues of Virgin women; however, Elezaer was thrown and crushed by the Elephant.’ ~ Historian Josephus War I, I, 5
Matthew 26
52 Then Yeshua said to him, “Return the sword to its place, for all of those who take up swords will die by swords.
53 Do you think that I cannot ask my Father and he would raise up for me now more than twelve Legions of Angels?
54 How then would the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?”
55 At that moment Yeshua said to the crowd, “Have you come out as against a robber with swords and with clubs to seize me? I was with you every day in The Temple sitting and teaching, and you did not arrest me.”
56 But this happened that the scripture of The Prophets may be fulfilled; then all the disciples forsook him and fled."
My mother told me when I was a kid that Matthew 1 was Mary’s genealogy and her father, Rev. Joe, was a Baptist Jewish minister in about 14 churches, so I'm excited to read all about how Michael and Nehemia rewrote the translation correctly in helping clarify John 6:4, as well - passover was not correlated in the other 3 Gospels, John died in August. Nehemia Gordon has an excellent playlist about the critique of John 6 while studying for his Masters in Biblical Studies and a Bachelors in Archeology at the Hebrew University Of Jerusalem, Israel.

As the moon cycles around the earth, it cycles around the sun. The lunar cycle has 354 days and the solar cycle has 365 days.
'A synodic month, (29.53059 Moon | Sun days for New/Full moon phases), is longer than a sidereal month, (27.32166 days Moon | Fixed Star), because the Earth-Moon system is orbiting the Sun in the same direction as the Moon is orbiting the Earth The Sun moves eastward with respect to the stars (as does the Moon) and it takes about 2.2 days longer for the Moon to return to the same apparent position with respect to the Sun while each Earth | Moon draconic month only has approx. 27.21222 days.' ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Month
The earth is round and rocks back to the north and forward to the south as it rotates on it's axis around the sun, yearly.
"There are four seasons across most of Australia, with the tropical north experiencing a wet and dry season.

Ref. LEGITIMATE
From Middle English legitimat, legytymat, from Medieval Latin lēgitimatus, perfect passive participle of Latin lēgitimō (“make legal”), from Latin lēgitimus (“lawful”), originally "fixed by law, in line with the law," from Latin lēx (“law”). Originally "lawfully begotten".

The verb was derived from the adjective by conversion.
Ref. "illegitimate (comparative more illegitimate, superlative most illegitimate)

Where's Hell?
Etymology. From ecclesiastical Latin gehenna, from Ancient Greek γέεννα (géenna), from Hebrew גֵּיהִנּוֹם (ge'henom, “hell”, literally “valley of Hinnom”), named after the Valley of Hinnom outside Jerusalem, which was constantly filled with the waste of the city, which was then burnt. Heinous deeds are also associated with this valley, as during the time when Jerusalem was ruled by non-Jews (referred to in scriptures simply as 'pagans') child sacrifice was practiced there."
