Leviticus

Chapter 26

1~~You shall make you
no idols nor graven image,
neither rear you up a standing image
  {don't nail it to the floor to make it stand},
neither shall you set up any image of stone in your land,
to bow down unto it.
I . . . {am} the Jehovah/God your Elohiym/Godhead.

2~~You shall keep my Sabbaths,
and reverence My sanctuary
  {tabernacle/ temple - where bible doctrine was taught
  categorically}.
I . . . {am} the Jehovah/God.

{Importance of Studying Bible doctrine}
3~~If you 'walk in my statutes',
and keep My commandments,
and execute them.

{Prosperity for a Nation That Studies the word/'doctrinal communication' {dabar} of God}
4-7~~Then I will give you rain at the right season,
and the land shall yield her increase,
and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit 5~~
and your threshing shall reach unto the vintage/'top of the storage',
and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time
  {means plenty of seeds for the next season}
 and you shall eat your bread to the full {maximum prosperity},
and dwell in your land in security {National prosperity} 6~~
and I will give peace in the land,
and you shall lie down,
and none shall make you afraid {good law enforcement}.
And I will rid evil beasts out of the land
  {no violence in the rural areas},
neither shall the sword go through your land {low crime rate}. 7~~
And you shall chase your enemies,
and they shall fall before you by the sword
  {freedom through military victory}.

{Bible Doctrine in the Souls of your Military Make them Invincible}
8~~And five of you shall chase an hundred,
and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight.
And your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

{Bible Doctrine in the Soul Gives Prosperity in National Social Life}
9~~For I will have respect unto you,
and make you prosperous,
and multiply you,
and establish My covenant with you {freedom for all}.

{Prosperity - you will always be ahead}
10~~And you shall eat old store,
and bring forth the old because of the new
  {eat the old stores of food to make room for the new}.

{Spiritual Prosperity}
11-12~~ And I will set My tabernacle
  {place where doctrine is taught categorically}
among you.
And My soul shall not abhor you. 12~~
And I will walk among you,
and will be your Elohiym/Godhead {Right God},
and you shall be My people {Right People}.

{Note: Category 1 Love for 'Elohiym/Godhead - similar to the Right Man/ Right Woman relationship.}

13~~ I . . . {am} the Jehovah/God your Elohiym/Godhead,
Who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt,
that you should not be their slaves.
And I have broken the bands of your yoke,
and made you walk upright {like free people}.

{Verses 14-17. 1st Cycle of Discipline}
14~~But if you do not obey Me {human volition},
and do not carry out all these commandments {decisions} . . .

15~~And if instead you reject My statutes
and if your soul despises My ordinances . . .
so that you do not carry out all My mandates {freedom code}
but that you are breaking My covenant . . .

16~~ I, in turn, will do this to you . . .
I will appoint over you sudden terror {historical disaster- terrorism},
consumption and fever {natural disaster- sickness}
causing the eyes to fail . . .
and the soul will pine away . . .
and so you will sow your seed in vain . . .
for your enemies shall eat it . . .

17~~ And I will set My face against you,
so you will be struck down by your enemies
  {historical disaster - military} . . .
consequently those that hate you shall rule over you . . .
and you shall flee when no one is pursuing you.

{Verses 18-20. 2nd Cycle of Discipline}
18~~And if you will not yet for all this hearken unto Me,
then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.

{See Revelation 1.14 Bronze Represents this}
19~~Furthermore, I will break down your arrogance
for power {lust for power was great}
and I will make your sky like iron
and your earth like bronze {recession}.

20~~And your strength shall be spent in vain.
for your land shall not yield her increase,
neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits {intensification}.

{Verses 21-22: 3rd Cycle of Discipline}
21~~And if you walk contrary unto me,
and will not hearken unto me;
I will bring seven times more plagues upon you
according to your sins.

22~~I will also send wild animals/beasts among you,
which shall rob you of your children,
and destroy your cattle,
and make you few in number;
and your high ways shall be desolate.

{Verses 23-26. 4th Cycle of Discipline}
23~~And if you will not be reformed by me by these things,
but will walk contrary unto me;

24~~Then will I also walk contrary unto you,
and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.

{Military Disaster}
25~~And I will bring a sword upon you,
that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant.

And when you are gathered together within your cities,
I will send the pestilence among you;
and you shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

26~~And when I have broken the staff of your bread,
ten women shall bake your bread in one oven,
and they shall deliver you your bread again by weight.

And you shall eat, and not be satisfied.

{Verses 27-39: 5th Cycle of Discipline}
27-28~~And if you will not for all this listen unto me,
but walk contrary to Me, 28~~
then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury;
and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.

{Sign of Siege - See also Jeremiah 19:9}
29~~And you shall eat the flesh of your sons,
and the flesh of your daughters shall you eat.

{Note: In the midst of the siege, they turn cannibalistic to survive. Family love among the Jews is tremendous so this was quite a shock to them.}

{Idolatry and Demonism}
30~~And I {God} will destroy your high places,
and cut down your images,
and cast your carcasses
upon the carcasses of your idols,
and My soul shall abhor you.

31~~And I will make your cities waste,
and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation
  {both 1st and 2nd Temples were destroyed under the 5th cycle},
and I will not smell the savor of your sweet odors
  {means no longer will animal sacrifices be offered to God}.

32~~And I will bring the land into desolation
and your enemies who dwell therein
shall be astonished at it.

33~~And I will scatter you among the heathen,
and will draw out a sword after you
and your land shall be desolate,
and your cities waste.

{God WILL Collect His Sabbath Years
  if the Jews Do not Adhere to them}
34~~Then shall the land enjoy her Sabbaths,
as long as it lies desolate,
and you be in your enemies' land;
even then shall the land rest,
and enjoy her Sabbaths.

{Note: Jews were challenged to live the faith rest life. Every 7 years all business was to stop and to depend upon the Lord to survive that 7th year. If they ignored the Sabbatical years, then God would collect them. The Jews allowed 70 of these years to pass and they were out for 70 years - see Daniel Chapter 9.}

35~~As long as it lies desolate it shall rest;
because it did not rest in your Sabbaths,
when you dwelt upon it.

36 And upon them that are left alive of you
I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies;
and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them;
and they shall flee,
as fleeing from a sword;
and they shall fall when none pursues.

37 And they shall fall one upon another,
as it were before a sword,
when none pursues.

And you shall have no power to stand before your enemies.

38 And you shall perish among the heathen,
and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.

39 And they that are left of you
shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands;
and also in the iniquities of their fathers
shall they pine away with them.

{Always Hope for Believers out of Fellowship}
40-42~~If they shall confess their iniquity {rebound},
and the iniquity of their fathers,
with their trespasses which they trespassed against Me,
and that also they have walked contrary unto Me; 41~~
and that I also have Walked contrary unto them,
and have brought them into the land of their enemies;
if then their 'uncircumcised hearts' be humbled,
  {means to be out of fellowship}
and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity . . . 42~~
then will I remember My covenant with Jacob,
and also My covenant with Isaac,
and also My covenant with Abraham will I remember;
and I will remember the land.

43 The land also shall be left of them,
and shall enjoy her sabbaths,
while she lieth desolate without them:
and they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
because, even because they despised my judgments,
and because their soul abhorred my statutes.

44 And yet for all that,
when they be in the land of their enemies,
I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them,
to destroy them utterly,
and to break my covenant with them:
for I am the Jehovah/God their God.

45 But I will for their sakes remember
the covenant of their ancestors,
whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt
in the sight of the heathen,
that I might be their God: I am Jehovah/God.

46 These are the statutes and judgments and laws,
which the Jehovah/God made between him
and the children of Israel
in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
