The Images Tell the Story: A Summary of the Holy Royal Nation

The images of the header tell the story of the people of the LORD, the sons of LORD on earth, the aristocratic rulers, and inheritors of the Kingdom of Heaven on earth, mentioned in the Holy Bible, in sacred history as the Nation of Israel, the Israelites, and the physical, and metaphysical implications of this. Concerning the flesh they are the descendants of Adam, Noah, Shem, Peleg, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel.

Genesis 35:12 And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.

Genesis 35:13 And went up from him in the place where he talked with him.

The LORD’s representative 'went up', left from Abraham by way of a vessel of the spiritual realm, known in the scriptures as the chariots of the LORD, known in modern times as UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects).

Genesis 35:14 And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, even a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon.

Genesis 35:15 And Jacob called the name of the place where the LORD spake with him, Beth-el.

Beth-el means House of the Power/LORD. In Paleo, or ancient Hebrew it’s Bath-Yah. Paleo or Ancient Hebrew is no longer widely spoken.

Romans 9:3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

Paul used the phrases 'my kinsmen according to the flesh', and 'and of whom concerning the flesh Christ came, because the Holy Bible is an ethnically themed book, although it is also for all the families, nations, and people of the earth. It particularly concerns the descendants of Israel, and their physical patrilineal descent. I am aware of the rabbincal based Halakha, or Halachic law of matrilineal descent, but the Torah does not refer to jewish status based on matrilineal descent. Jewish oral rabbinical tradition codified in the Mishnah serves as the basis of a shift from patrilineal to matrilineal descent. Though Karaite Judaism holds that Judaism can only be transmitted through the father, and thus holds a rule (law) of patrilineality. 

"Jewish oral rabbinical tradition codified in the Mishnah serves as the basis of a shift from patrilineal to matrilineal descent, though Karaite Judaism holds that Judaism can only be transmitted through the father, and thus holds a rule (law) of patrilineality. The Mishnah (Kiddushin 3:12) states that, to be a Jew, one must be either the child of a Jewish mother or a convert to Judaism, (ger tzedek, "righteous convert"). In the Hellenistic period of the 4th Century BCE – 1st Century CE some evidence may be interpreted to indicate that the offspring of intermarriages between Jewish men and non-Jewish women were considered Jewish; as is usual in pre-rabbinic texts, there is no mention of conversion on the part of the Gentile spouse. The meaning of Gentile is foreigner, meaning ethnically a foreigner, or in the case of an Israelite, spiritual a foreigner. Karaite Judaism holds that Judaism can only be transmitted through the father, and thus holds a rule of patrilineality. As a result, historical Karaite Jewish and Rabbinical Jewish communities would usually not intermarry with each other, even when the two Jewish communities lived side by side, such as in Alexandria and the Crimea. Karaite Judaism argues that Jewish identity can only be passed through the father, since all Jewish descent in the Tanakh is traced patrilineally. 

With the emergence of Jewish denominations and the modern rise in Jewish intermarriage in the 20th century, questions about the law of matrilineal descent have assumed greater importance to the Jewish community at large. The heterogeneous Jewish community is divided on the issue of "Who is a Jew?" via descent; matrilineal descent still is the rule within Orthodox Judaism, which also holds that anyone with a Jewish mother has an irrevocable Jewish status, and matrilineal descent is the norm in the Conservative movement. Since 1983, Reform Judaism in the United States of America officially adopted a bilineal policy: one is a Jew if either of one's parents is Jewish, provided that either (a) one is raised as a Jew, by Reform standards, or (b) one engages in an appropriate act of public identification, formalizing a practice that had been common in Reform synagogues for at least a generation. Karaite Judaism, which includes only the Tanakh in its canon, interprets the Torah to indicate that Jewishness passes exclusively through the father's line, maintaining the system of patrilineality that many scholars believe was the practice of ancient Israel”.

Jesus Christ or Yahawashi Hamashiyach, was a descendant of Israel, born of the tribe of Judah, born of the lineage of King David, of the preeminent royal family of Israel. He was and is the prophesied messiah of Israel's redemption, though because this is a spiritual-physical matter, some disagree with this, even many millennia later. He is a person of color, some disagree with this also.

The appearance, or physiognomy of children of Israel is historically based, not racially scientifically based. Their appearance is a product of history, not a product of modern physiognomical class systems. In other words they are neither Black, White, Brown, Yellow, or Red. They vary in complexion and phenotype. Though like people of history you can trace, and follow their migrations, and possible habitations. In secular history they are known by different names, such as the Hyksos, the Shepard Kings of Egypt,  the Sea Peoples, the Trojans, the Greeks of the Classical Era, Spartans, Cretians, Phoenicians, Eastern, and Western Ethiopians, Syrians, Syro-Hittites, Scythians, Saka, Carthaginians, Berbers, Kelts, Celts,  Irish, Welsh, 1^st  CE Roman Patricians, Coptic Christians, Nestorian Christians, Saint Thomas Christians, Merovingian, Franks, Tetrarch, the Aristocratic Families of Medieval histories, Romani Gypsies, the Christians and Moors of Spain, Ladinos, Early North and Native Americans, Aztecs, Mayans, Incas, Hausa, Mandingo, Fulani, descendants of the West African enslaved in the Americas, Afro-Caribbeans, Central and South Americans, Black Americans, Atlantic Creole, Founders of Freemasonry, Templarism and Prince Hall Masonry, and many, many more. 

The story of Israel is the story of the world, and world history would be incomplete without these people whom the Holy Bible calls "the Salt of the Earth.”

 

Salt enhances, cleanses, and purifies

Matthew 5:13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

The role of salt in the Bible is relevant to understanding Hebrew society during the Old Testament and New Testament time periods. In various contexts it is used metaphorically to signify permanence, loyalty, durability, fidelity, usefulness, value, and purification. 

Etymology - Salt of the Earth

From Old English a calque translation of verse from New Testament Matthew 5:13

A most worthy person.

A decent, dependable, unpretentious person.

The meaning of Israel being the 'Salt of the Earth' also means a purifying element in the earth. All nations through spiritual liturgy have priests, but the world's true priesthood belongs to Israel. It is Israel's duty to purify the world from matters of existential uncleanness, or defilement. Israel was chosen by the LORD, creator of heaven and earth for this role.

Amos 3:2 You only have I known of all the families in the earth:

 

Elements that Purify

Purification is a ritual act in which a defiled person, or thing is made clean.

Exodus 19:6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

1 Peter 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

The elect of Israel are as living stones when all put in place constitute a temple of the LORD, the only ordained and elected priesthood, that have been given the laws of the Bible to govern, the liturgy of offerings, and sacrifices that are acceptable to YAHAWAH the Creator, and Father of Heaven and Earth, through his Son Yahawashi.

 

Creation of the World Icon Russia, 18c.

I Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

The nation of Israel contains the world’s foremost aristocratic families of the earth. Israel was, is, and is to be the nation that represents the LORD, and his ways to the world deprived of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding which tends to life, and not death. The nations of the world have liturgy, and shrines, and sacrifices, and offerings, but they offer these offerings to spirits of the earth, and to the spirits of the dead, not to the LORD. They do this because they are in darkness of understanding what really preserves, what really purifies, and what really saves from uncleanness, and defilement.

Hebrews 5:1 For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to the God, that he may offer both gifts, and sacrifices for sins:

The high priests and the priests of the world’s religions are ordained by men to perform the liturgy of their various deities.

Hebrews 5:2 Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way (going astray); for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.

The priests of the nations are spiritual sick, how can they cure the sick.

Hebrews 5:3 And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

 

Misogi

How can a man cleanse who is in need of cleansing himself. One example is the Shinto Priest who performs Misogi before they perform their liturgy. The world has need of a priesthood that is infallible; priests that are unclean can’t preside over the unclean, how then should anyone be clean from their sins.

Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

Within the nation of Israel is the future leadership of the world. The future kings, and princes, and governing families of the earth. The high priesthood of Israel will one day govern the earth.
