Key words to consider the Hebrew
meaning:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Transgression
Strong# Hebrew 6588 … noun …
PESHA … as present in this verse … הַפֶּ֜שַׁע … actual glyph spelling is … פֶשַׁע … the best literal meanings of PESHA include
… rebellion … or … transgression … note for the use of this word in this verse
the prefix HA which in our analysis indicates a singular or specific rebellion
or transgression … again in our analysis this would reference … Genesis 1 vss 2
… Isaiah 14 … and … Ezekiel 28 … interesting … the root of PESHA is the Hebrew
verb … PASHA … Strong# Hebrew 6586 … פָשַׁע … the best literal meanings of PASHA include …
to revolt … to rebell … to transgress … the context of this word into English
is essentially to break away from the just and established authority … the root
of PASHA is Hebrew verb … PASA … Strong# Hebrew 6585 … פָשַׂע … the best literal meaning of PASA into
English is to step however the context of the meaning is to step or stride with
a swift rushing movement toward someone or something to clear the way and break
free … interesting …
To finish ( To seal up )
Strong# Hebrew 3607 … verb … KALA
… as present in this verse … לְכַלֵּ֨א … the actual glyph spelling is … כָּלָא
… the best literal meanings of KALA include … to hold back … to stay … to
restrain … to shut up … the context is an active process which brings to an end
an action or set of actions by an active process or word … essentially
something is stopped and held in a specific and separate state … e.g. a stone
wall can stay the forward motion of a car … while the English translation gives
an impression of something coming to an end … the Hebrew verb references a
change in state … again like the forward motion of a car vs a car that has been
stopped … note for the use of this word in this verse the prefix LAMED which in
our analysis indicates an accented focus of purpose … to … e.g. … to restrain …
or … to stay … with reference to Genesis 1:2 Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 … evil
and wickedness will come to a changed state in the lake of fire … the second
death … it is not an end or finish rather it is a change of state that permits
the decent of the New Jerusalem and the new heaven and earth … in our analysis
of various translations of KALA to English for this verse the selection … to
seal up … appears to be the most appropriate …

Everlasting
Strong# Hebrew 5769 … noun … OLAM
… as present in this verse … עלמים … the actual glyph spelling is … עוֹלָם
… the best literal meanings of OLAM include … from the beginning of the world
without end … perpetual … everlasting … the root of OLAM is Hebrew verb ALAM … עָלַם
… Strong# Hebrew 5956 … the best literal meanings of ALAM include … to veil
from sight … to place beyond perception … to conceal …
Righteousness

,,, as present in this verse … צֶדֶק … the actual glyph spelling is … צֶדֶק
… the best literal meanings of TSEDEQ include … what is right … what is just …
what is accurate … righteousness … what is true …
To bring in
Strong# Hebrew … 935 … verb … BO
… as present in this verse … וּלְהָבִ֖יא … the actual glyph spelling is … בּוֹא
… the best literal meanings of BO include … go in … come in … bring in … so the
general idea is a forward motion into something … consider the meaning of the
name of the early Patriarch ENOSH whose name means … a narrow space … the
father of ENOSH was SETH whose name means … placed into … and … the father of
SETH was ADAM whose name means … man or humankind … humankind placed into a
narrow space following that unfortunate decision made by Adam and Eve in Eden …
in this prophecy that is delivered by the Angel Gabriel … what he is saying …
in our analysis … is that … everlasting righteousness will be brought into this
narrow space … note that for the spelling of BO in this verse there are three
prefixes … VAV LAMED and HA … in our analysis … the HA emphasizes that it is
this specific one time action being addressed by the prophecy … that is the
crucifixion of Jesus Christ on the cross which provides for the redemption of
all humankind from Adam to the last person born at the end of time … redemption
is the reestablishment of relationship between God and humankind … the VAV
emphasizes that this singular redemptive action is applied actively many times
… that is to each person of humankind ever conceived in their mother’s womb …
and … the LAMED emphasizes and accents the purpose of this action … that is … to
bring into this narrow space the righteousness of God … of interest which we
will address toward the end of this study is a Bible Code with ELS found in
Daniel chapter 9 vs 24 – 25 which spells … YESHUA …
