Review of Job
chapter 38 vs 19 – 21
God speaking:
Job 38 vs 19 … do
you know the way to the dwelling of light and do you know
where the place of darkness is …
38:19 אי-זה הדרך ישכן-אור וחשך אי-זה מקמו
20 … so that
you can take yourself from its territory … and ... know
what paths can take you to its home …
38:20 כי תקחנו אל-גבולו וכי-תבין נתיבות ביתו
21 … do you know this … because you were born there …
however … you were born for the number of your days is great …
38:21 ידעת כי-אז תולד ומספר ימיך רבים
… in our analysis … perhaps there is a slightly better translation based on the literal meanings of select Hebrew words … 19 … where is the path on which the transmission of light travels … where is the space in which darkness dwells … so that … you can move away from its boundaries … 20 … so that … you can discern the path to travel away from its dungeon … 21 … you will know by seeing that you were born there … however … you were born for the number of your years to be great …
… essentially …
all humankind has been born in the space in which darkness dwells … but … we
have been born to live forever with God … God’s teaching in the Holy Bible enables
us … to see the place(s) darkness dwells … to see what the boundaries of those
places are … to see the many paths that can lead an individual who has escaped
darkenss back to the place where darkness dwells … and … to see the path that
will take an individual to the light of God … God’s light is given freely to us
through the … life … death on the cross … and … resurrection of Jesus Christ
Who is God our Lord our Savior our Teacher and our Friend … the space in which
darkness dwells is intended by evil to keep an individual from seeing the light
of God and receiving the redemption and salvation which is offered to each
individual of humankind …

Father …

… there is
nothing incorrect with the versions of Job 38 vs 19 – 21 which we find in
various English translations of the Holy Bible … however … it is our finding
that the use of best literal meanings for some of the Hebrew words in these
three verses of Job chapter 28 gives a slightly different understanding for what God is saying to us … interesting … Key
words to consider the Hebrew meaning:
Job 38 vs 19 … way
… Strong# Hebrew 1870 … noun … DEREK … the spelling used for this word in this
verse is … הַ֭דֶּרֶךְ
… the actual glyph spelling is … דֶּרֶךְ … the best literal
meanings include … journey … way … path … a road that is trodden … coarse of a
complete cycle e.g. coarse of life … note the use of the prefix HA which adds
the emphasis … this specific … the root of DEREK is Hebrew verb … DARAK …
Strong# Hebrew 1869 … the best literal meaning is … to walk … to tread … to bend … interestingly it is the verb used
to string a bow because the archer steps on one end of the bow to bend the bow
body for the string …
Job 38 vs 19 … dwelling
… Strong# Hebrew 7931 … verb … SHAKAN … as present in this verse … יִשְׁכָּן … the actual glyph
spelling is … שָׁכַן
… note the prefix YOD which provides the first person possessive tense …
remember that this is God speaking … God is saying … My dwelling of … the
best literal meanings include … to abide … to dwell … to permanently remain in
one place … to make a place your habitation …
Job 38 vs 19 … place … Strong# Hebrew 4725 … noun … MAQOM … the spelling used for this word in this verse is … מְקֹמֽוֹ … the actual glyph spelling is … מָקוֹם … in our analysis the transposition of the VAV to the end enables the VAV to be a suffix which both accents and emphasizes that while darkness resides in a defined place … we note often that this is repeatedly termed in the Holy Bible as the Narrow Place … there are in fact many forms of darkness connected as a single specific entity and it appears as something very different to different people … interesting … for … the mud and muck it produces is the same obstacle with the intent of keeping an individual confined from seeing and moving toward the light of God … essentially darkness gradually makes moving toward God like trying to pull a loaded wagon through mud without wheels … the best literal meanings of MAQOM include … a place … a defined and definite space … a specific spot … a specific piece of ground … a home … a country …
Psalm 18:19 … He brought me out into a spacious place … He rescued me because He delights in me …
Psalm 18:33 – 36 … You broaden the path beneath me so that my ankles do not turn …
Psalm 31:8 … You have not given me into the hands of the enemy but have set my feet in a spacious place ...
Psalm 118:5 … when hard pressed … I cried to the LORD … He brought me into a spacious place …

Job 38 vs 20 … territory
… Strong# Hebrew 1366 … noun … GEBUL … the spelling used for this word in this
verse is … גְּבוּל֑וֹ
… the actual glyph spelling is … גְּבוּל … while the translation uses territory as a
singular noun … the suffix VAV accents that there are many discrete territories
of darkness that are connected as a single entity … interesting … the best
literal meanings for GEBUL include … territory … a space enclosed by a boundary
… the root of GEBUL is Hebrew verb GABAL … Strong# Hebrew 1379 … גָּבַל … the best literal meanings
of GABAL include … to set a boundary … to set a border around something or
somewhere …
Job 38 vs 20 … know
… Strong# Hebrew 995 … verb … BIN … the spelling used for this word in this
verse is … תָ֝בִ֗ין
… the actual glyph spelling is … בִּין … the prefix TAV in the
use of this verb … BIN … in this verse … accents the meaning of the verb to be
enabled by the second or third person … you will … they will … he will … she
will … the action indicated is not and will not be enabled by the speaker who
in this case is God … rather … by the person or persons being spoken to … the
best literal meanings for BIN include … discern … e.g. God is saying … can you
discern … or … you will discern … additional meanings include … perceive … and
… we like best … to separate mentally … in the context of this verse … to
separate your understanding of God from your understanding of evil …
Job 28 vs 28 … Reverence for the LORD is Wisdom … and … to depart from evil is Understanding …
Psalm 111 vs 10 … Reverence for the LORD is the beginning of Wisdom and good Understanding have all who follow His teaching …
Proverbs 9: 10 … Reverence for the LORD is the beginning of Wisdom knowledge of the Holy One is Understanding ...
Job 38 vs 20 … paths … Strong# Hebrew 5410 … NATHIYB … noun … the spelling used for this word in this verse is … נְתִיב֥וֹת … the actual glyph spelling is … נָתִיב … remembering that God is the speaker in Job 38 vs 20 … the TAV suffix accents the meaning of the noun as that of the second or third person … that is … you they he or she depending of the context of the dialog … the VAV suffix accents that there are many … the best literal meanings of NATHIYB include … a path that is well traveled … a way that is well traveled … the root of NATHIYB is an unused word which means to trample down …
Job 38 vs 20
,,, home … Strong# 995 … LBAYITH ,,, or sometimes spelled BAYITH … noun
… the spelling used for this word in this verse is … בֵּיתֽוֹ … the actual glyph
spelling is … בּיִת …
the suffix VAV accents that there are many … in our analysis the best literal
meaning for LBAYITH is … dungeon … though other literal meanings include …
house … or … court … when LBAYITH is uses with these translations the context
is a reference is often to being held firmly without alternative options for
both good and bad reasons for the individual … as a literal meaning … dungeon …
in this verse … the reference is to a situation of being firmly held with out
alternative options for bad reasons to an individual … being held from a
perception of or access to the light of God’s saving grace … interesting … of
similar are objects with sixteen connection points … the term in Geometry is
Hexadecagon … hexadecagon shapes can exist in … two-dimensions on paper … in
three dimensions within our physical world … and probably … in four dimensions
in our physical world and across time somehow … however the analogy which we
will propose related to LBAYITH is two dimensional and can be constructed
clockwise or counter-clockwise … though … the principle probably also applies
to three and four dimensional models … there are various ways sixteen points
can be connected … one of the two that we will note here produce a LABYRINTH
and the other will produce a UNICARSAL LABYRINTH ,,, the first is produced by
moving clockwise with the connection of the closest adjacent points … and … the
latter by the same procedure except the first connection step skips one point …
a LABYRINTH is a continuous path that leads to a dead end at the center of a
circular path … a UNICARSAL LABYRINTH is a circular path with two openings and
no dead end in the center … a LABYRINTH is a good visualization of how Darkness
is the mechanism that evil uses in many forms to keep an individual from the
perception and the seeking of the light from God which brings life forever with
God … the UNICARSAL LABYRINTH is a good visualization of the overlaying way of
life which God has given to humankind so God can be found and an individual can
come to live with God forever … in the Holy Bible we are told that sin cascades
into greater and greater darkness which can become wickedness in an individual
… such folks have entered a LABYRINTH that is very hard to back out of … Jesus
Christ is the UNICARSAL LABYRINTH which offers from God a direct path out of and
away from Darkness … a direct path which one only needs to move forward on to
enjoy everlasting life with God forever …
John chapter 14, vs 6 Jesus Christ speaking
… I AM … the way … the truth … and … the life … no one comes to the Father except through Me …
Isaiah chapter 48, vs 17
… the … Lord God Almighty … says … I AM … your Redeemer … the … Holy One of Israel … I AM … the … Lord your God … Who … teaches you what is best for you … I AM … He … Who … directs you in the way that you should go …
Isaiah chapter 42, vs 16
… the … Lord God Almighty … says … I will lead the blind by ways they have not known … along unfamiliar paths … I will guide them … I will turn the darkness into light before them … and … the rough places smooth … these things I will do … I will not forsake them …
Isaiah chapter 35, vs 8
… a highway will be there … it will be called the Way of Holiness … it will be for those who walk on that Way … the unclean will not journey on it … and … wicked fools will not go about on it …
Jeremiah chapters 31, 32, 33 + 34: God speaking selected verse segments
… I AM … the LORD ( YHVH ) God Almighty … I love you with an everlasting love … and … continue My faithfulness to you … I will gather you from the farthest parts of the earth … I will lead you back … in a straight path on which you shall not stumble … you will be radiant … over the … grain … wine … and … oil … your work will be rewarded … for … I make a new covenant … (1) I will put My teaching within you … (2) I will write it on your hearts … (3) you shall know Me … (4) nothing is too hard … I will reward everyone according to their ways … according to the work of their doings … you will dwell in safety … you will be My people … and … I will be your God … I will give you … (1) one heart … (2) one way … (3) so that you will have reverence for Me forever … (4) for your good and the good of your children …
Matthew chapter 7 vs 13 – 14 Jesus Christ speaking
… enter by the narrow gate … for wide is the gate and broad the way that leads to destruction … and … there are many who go in by it … because … narrow is the gate and difficult the way that leads to life … and … there are few who find it …

Daniel 10 vs 12
– 13
Then he said to
me … Daniel do not fear ,,, for … from the first day that you set your heart to
understand and to humble yourself before your God … your words were heard
and I have come because of your words. … but … the prince of the kingdom of
Persia withstood me twenty-one days … then … Michael one of the chief princes
came to help me for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia …
Daniel 10 vs 20
– 21
Then he said …
do you know why I have come to you … and … now I must return to fight with
the prince of Persia … when I have gone forth indeed the prince of Greece will
come … but I will tell you what is noted in the Scripture of Truth … No one
upholds me against these except Michael your prince …
Daniel 12 vs 1
- 3
At that that
time Michael will stand up … the great prince who stands watch over
the sons of your people … and there will be a time of trouble that has never
been seen since there was a nation … at that time your people shall be
delivered with every one who is found written in the book … many of those
who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake … some to everlasting life and some
to shame and everlasting contempt … those who are wise will shine like
the brightness of the firmament and those who turn many to righteousness like
the stars … forever and ever …
Dead Sea Scrolls – War Scroll
The Sons of
Righteousness will shine to all ends of the world and continue to shine forth
until end of the appointed seasons of darkness … then at the time appointed by
God … His great excellence will shine forever and ever with … peace … blessing …
glory … joy and long life for all Sons of Light …
John 12 vs 35 –
36 Jesus
Christ speaking
A little while
longer the light is with you … walk while you have the light lest
darkness overtake you all those who walk in darkness do not know where they are
going ... while you have the light
believe in the light so that you will become Sons of Light …
John 12 vs 44 –
46 Jesus
Christ speaking
Everyone who
believes in Me believes not in Me but in Him who sent Me … and …
everyone who sees Me sees Him who sent Me … I have come as a
light into the world so that everyone who believes in Me will not abide in
darkness …
