Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ


Genesis 1:1 in Hebrew  is a menorah seven (golden lampstand seven) where the central lamp: Ner Elohim (lamp of God), a seventh in the midst, as two things that are considered as one light:

Genesis 1:1 (written in Hebrew, with aleph/tahv as a seventh in the midst)
haeretz   –   vaeht   –   hashamayim   –   eht   –   Elohim   –   barah   –   Bereshit
          [earth]   -   [and]  -  [heavens]  -   [aleph/tahv]  -  [God]  [created]  -  [In the beginning]

However, read right to left: "created God" is also a question (SAQ), whereas left to right: "God created" would be a statement. It is a well known fact Scriptures were written in Hebrew, which is read right to left, backwards compared to how we read today. It is interesting to note eht[aleph/tahv] in the midst is tahv[last: truth & perfection] aleph[first: creator & king] when read right to left, but aleph[first] tahv[last] when read left to right. In the backward case the last is first, and the first is last. It is also interesting to note Elohim[plural of God] and hashamayim[heavens] on either side of a plural center lamp are both plural. Genesis 5 speaks of the "generations" (plural) of Adam, allegorically Adams. Matthew 1 speaks of the singular "generation" of Jesus Christ. Yet further clarity notes that God hath given us the victory "through Jesus -> Christ", which ends with "Christ": "the end of the law" (Romans 10:4).

Allegorically generations and generation is the difference between the plurality of grace + law of first Adam compared to the singularity of grace of last Adam. In the fashion of a shew, twain: Old & New Testaments, as first & last, before & after, great & greater, good & better, Yet, to compound the mystery, Scriptures were written aforetime, as Scripture -vs- Scripture, and "for our learning"(Romans 15:4); The objective of such a hide & seek / seek & find God shew, such a virtual reality learning game whereby all the worlds a stage, being the getting of wisdom, then sorting out which is witch of two wisdoms, the final objective being to get it: understanding" (Proverb 4:7), and the result of getting understanding being thy head (Christ, the end of the law, is the head of every "man") is crowned with "grace" glory, the glory of God (the head of Christ). Such is the allegorical (Galatians 4) comparative (this/that) teaching method used throughout the Bible, which refers to the New Testament as the "better" of good & better testaments, having a "better hope" of good & better hopes, in the fashion of a counter part -vs- part, imperfect -vs- perfect, to help us understand what perfect(Mt 5:48/Lk 6:36) is, by comparing it to imperfect(Heb 7:11; 10:1). And as stated in 1Cor 13, when "that" which is perfect is come (man), then this witch is imperfect (child) should be done away. For a childish-man is an oxymoron, the mixture of two contrary things. One God is not twain.
 
Seven last utterances of Jesus on the cross at Easter
seem to be a menorah seven,  with two Gods [aleph/tahv]in the central lamp (midst),
or perhaps allegorically one God with two[left/right] "hands" as utterance seven suggests;
Yet Hebrews 10:31 notes it's a "fall" & "fearful" to fall into the "hands" of God on high

        1. Father, forgive them for they know not what they do (Luke 23:34)
        2. Today shalt thou be with me in paradise (Luke 23:43)
        3. Woman, behold thy son. Behold thy mother (John 19:26,27)
        4. My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me (Matthew 27:46; from Psalms 22:1 )
        5. I thirst (John 19:28)
        6. It is finished (John 19:30)
        7. Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit (Luke 23:46)

Commentary on the Seven Last Utterances of Jesus on the cross:
1. "Them" seem to be ignorant, do things requiring forgiveness, prefer to cover up things, which isn't really forgiveness when uncovered, but rather a deadly sting of sin, witch law is the strength of (1Corinthians 15: 56). Real forgiveness, the "God hath forgiven you" sort in Ephesians 4, is only achievable by abolition of the law (Ephesians 2:15); All law, whether it's written in stone or in ink (2Corinthians 3).
2. "Shalt thou" seems more of a question than a statement, perhaps mirrorly the reverse of "thou shalt", as "Christ Jesus" is mirrorly the reverse of "Jesus Christ".
3. "Woman" is often biblically allegorical for church. And a woman saying a double minded "Amen, amen" (in Numbers 5:22) to being both blessed + cursed by her (Melchesedic) priest (Hebrews 7:23) has the same dead end (2Corinthians 11:15) as those both saved + destroyed in Jude 1:5; For such is evidently temporal salvation followed by a dead end (Heb 11:13, 39), as the snare of devilish law (Jam 3) we ought to give no place to (Eph 4:27).
4. "My God, my God" (two Gods) in the midst seems to result in feeling "forsaken".
5. "Thirst" quenched with "mingled" vinegar or wine, even a "taste" of such grace + law, seems to also result in giving up the ghost. Upon closer examination of thirst we find in Mt 27:34 they gave him vinegar "mingled with gall", which he "tasted"(as if tasting death), but would not drink; And in Mk 15:23 they gave him wine "mingled with myrrh", which he "received not". Luke 13:1, Revelation 8:7 & 15:2, also allegorically speak of "mingled". Paul The Apostle, concerning ordinances(laws), says: "Touch not, taste not, handle not", and gives the reason laws(ordinances) should not be touched, tasted, or handled: by the using "all perish": Col 2:20-22.
6. This is the 2nd mention of two mentions of "finished" in "verily verily" John 17 & 19, of which James 1:15 says: sin, when "it is finished", brings forth "death" (not life). The work God gave C of JC to do got "finished" prior to the cross, even prior to the arrest of Jesus (John 17:4).
7. As for "hands" (plural), it is a "fearful" thing (Hebrews 10:31) to "fall" into the "hands" of God on high; a fall from higher(above), and as Paul notes in Galatians 5:4 "fallen from grace" when justified by law. Perhaps "Father"(Law) is also not the same as "our Father" (Grace); For when it's "our Father" it's grace unto you and prayer for deliverance from evil(law).

These are just a few things to ponder at Easter, notably a time (Acts 12) when Peter, the only man called Satan in the Bible ( Mt 16:23 ), was jailed and bound for one day (one day [is] as a 1,000 yrs: 2Peter3), then loosed for a season (Revelation 20) to deceive (Mt 24:4; Mk 13:5; Lk 21:8) the world. Nevertheless Peter eventually got converted (in accordance with "when thou art converted, then strengthen thy brethren": Luke 22:32) and most likely by reading all Paul's epistles (including Hebrews and Revelation which Paul also authors), for Peter mentions such in his second epistle.


                        The LORD is my shepherd: Psalms 23
                    But He chanGes to Thou after two paths are compared                  
                    Psalms 23
seems to be a menorah seven,
                    with (plural) paths in the central lamp position:
                    1. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
                    2. He leadeth me beside still waters
                    3. He restoreth my soul
                    4. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake
                    5. Thou comforteth me
                    6. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
                    7. Thou annointest my head

Seven results are also mentioned in Psalms 23; The result of being led in plural "paths" of righteousness notably being a cup "runneth over", which is biblically also called an "overflow". An overflow, as converted Peter in 2Peter3 addresses it, is as "willing ignorance" which results in the first of twain worlds he allegorically compares(as if comparing law vs grace) all perishing; And notably from a polluted overflow of grace + law(worketh wrath). In comparison and contrast "the God of all grace" is grace full, period; And "that God" (of this/that Gods) results in you being perfected, stablished, strengthened, and settled (1Peter 5:10) after "ye" suffer a while in polluted grace + law. Merciful + sacrifice is also an overflow of polluted mercy on some only, sacrifice on all the rest. One God, our Father in heaven, is merciful to all, period. Paths (plural) suggest more than one way to God. Some even say all paths lead to God. But my Bible says one way leadeth unto life, and the other way leadeth to destruction of two ways.


The "principles" (plural) of "the doctrine" (singular) of "Christ" (Hebrews 6)
("principles": twain: are what we're exhorted to "leave" to "go on unto perfection": one)
These seven seem to be a menorah seven with hands (plural) at central lamp (midst):

                    1. Repentance from dead works
                    2. Faith towards God
                    3. Baptism
                    4. Laying on hands
                    5. Resurrection of the dead
                    6. Eternal judgment
                    7. Perfection

Hence, in Hebrews 6:1 we're exhorted to "leave" the "principles"(plural) of the doctrine of Christ behind, once such twain things compared and contrasted to "know" (John 8:32) which is witch; Then go on (through the cross) unto perfection (no law), as stated in the end(conclusion): Hebrews 13:25 as "Grace with you all. Amen". But such is further clarified in the end of the Holy Bible (Revelation 22:21) as The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen; Since the sort of grace Noah found in the eyes(plural) of the LORD (Adam: Genesis 4:1) got Noah both saved + destroyed after; For Noah is listed among the hall of shame faith heroes in Hebrews 11, which also clearly states: "these all died" and "received not the promise". Selah.

There are many hidden menorah sevens in the Bible... to be found, by "seek and ye shall find".
But seek ye first the kingdom of God (not kingdom of heaven) and his righteousness (not paths).
It would seem in each menorah seven there are plural things in the midst as the central lamp.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.
